International Unity
One might ask,
what does international unity have to do with Triangles? The
short answer is: quite a lot. The longer answer, showing the
esoteric connection, is a little more obscure. Obscurity, however,
does not imply a lack of relevance or potency. The Plan of God
may be obscure from our “normal” view of the world,
but the relevance and potency of its basic ideas is what is slowly
and inevitably moving human consciousness in the direction of
its divine objectives. The Triangles work has the potential
to exert a similar potency on the idea of world unity.
World Unity is
an ideal, the need of which has become obvious as a result of
the divisive wars of the twentieth century. A world ruled by
divisive nationalism, separativeness and greed does not provide
a fitting vehicle for the expression of the energies of light,
love and the will-to-good. These energies of the Plan must be
allowed to flow and circulate freely so that they may express
the divine intent of a unified world of nations held in the mind
of God. The Triangles work has a unique part to play in this
reconstruction process by assuring a continuous flow of energies
across all obstructing boundaries.
All Triangles
workers need to bear in mind the esoteric link of this subjective
service. Our work is not without its higher counterpart. It
is work “dear to the heart of Hierarchy,” and it is
from the energies that pour through Hierarchy that we draw our
strength and inspiration. Members of the Hierarchy also work
through a triangular pattern as They distribute the energies
of Light and Love into the world. Beyond the Hierarchy this
same triangular pattern is seen controlling the flow of energies
among the constellations, the solar system and the planets.
It seems that the triangle is a basic symbol of strength and
balance throughout the universe. This is why the triangle is
such an important archetypal pattern that we should work with
as well. Our daily work in Triangles is helping to elevate human
consciousness to vibrate in synchronisation with this universal
pattern. It helps draw humanity closer to the working methods
of the Hierarchy, and beyond. It is the primary way of distributing
the universal energy of love which works out as goodwill. And
“goodwill is the touchstone which will transform the world.”
The goal of this
transformation process is world unity. Fifty or sixty years
ago world unity looked like an impossible dream. But the recent
developments of the globalisation of the world economy, the telephone,
television and the internet have shown that humanity wants very
much to continue on this course of unity. We instinctively want
to build relationships around the world; it is a group soul impulse.
The triangular network of souls provides a daily balancing of
the unifying energies of love and goodwill. It is our daily
connection with the divine.
