Among the primordial narratives of Genesis, few passages have generated as much speculation, theological interpretation, and symbolic reinterpretation as the account of Babel in Genesis 11:1–9. Though often reduced to a children’s tale about pride or a philosophical myth explaining the diversity of languages, the ancient textual tradition surrounding Babel reveals a far deeper and more unsettling theme. The tower was not merely an architectural project; it represented a metaphysical revolt against divine order, a centralisation of human will, and an (...) attempt to establish an autonomous civilisation independent of cosmic law. The canonical Genesis account itself is remarkably brief, consisting of only nine verses. Yet surrounding this compact narrative is an immense body of Jewish, Mesopotamian, Christian, Islamic, and esoteric commentary that expands the event into one of the foundational crises of postdiluvian humanity. In these later traditions, the builders do not merely aspire toward heaven symbolically. They seek to storm it, pierce it, fortify themselves against divine judgement, and consolidate humanity into a singular political and spiritual order under the leadership of Nimrod. (shrink)

The archaic records, as preserved in fragmentary form within the works of H. P. Blavatsky, point consistently toward a primordial identity between the “Dragon” and the Initiate, between the Serpent of Wisdom and the illumined Sons of Mind who guided early humanity. Nowhere is this more suggestively veiled than in the traditions of ancient China, one of the most enduring branches of the Fifth Root Race. -/- The “sacred library of the province of Fo-Kien” in Blavatsky’s writings refers to an (...) esoteric, rather than publicly documented, repository of ancient manuscripts. “Fo-Kien” is the older Western spelling of Fujian, a coastal Chinese province with long-standing Buddhist and Taoist traditions. The southern Shaolin temple is strongly linked to the origins of numerous Fujianese martial arts, including Wing Chun, and the legend of the “five surviving elders.” The Southern Shaolin Temple, traditionally located in Fujian Province, is a legendary, historically debated, and now rebuilt site known as the cradle of southern Chinese kung fu. -/- Jeremy P.

The reflections that follow are offered within the esoteric framework articulated by H. P. Blavatsky and developed by Alice A. Bailey under the guidance of the Tibetan Master Djwhal Khul. Some of the conclusions suggested here draw together hints and analogies scattered throughout the Bailey material and are presented as a consideration of implications already implicit in that teaching, particularly where Master DK indicates that present astrological methods are provisional and subject to future rectification. The suggestions made are offered as (...) working hypotheses for dialogue within the esoteric and academic field. The paper does not seek to revise or challenge orthodox astronomy, biology, or medicine on their own terms, but to explore the internal coherence and implications of an esoteric cosmology that proceeds from different premises and addresses a different order of causation.

In November 1939, within the opening months of the Second World War, Alice A. Bailey published a remarkable passage in her book, The Externalisation of the Hierarchy: “Sea and air and land are arrayed against the Forces of Light; they are the agents of material substance and can be used potently against the spiritual Forces. The forces of the air are, however, increasingly on our side.” EXT 171/72. AAB. -/- Most students of Alice A. Bailey interpret this statement symbolically, seeing (...) in it an occult reference to the psychological and spiritual dimensions of world conflict. Yet the passage also invites a literal interpretation. Alice Bailey specifically names “sea and air and land” in direct sequence, employing the exact terminology of modern mechanised warfare. -/- Written at the beginning of a global conflict in which aerial supremacy would determine the survival of nations, the statement can plausibly be understood not only as symbolic but also as prophetic in a practical and technological sense. Within this framework, the phrase “the forces of the air are, however, increasingly on our side” may be read as a direct allusion to the emergence of British aerial defence, and most especially to the work of R. J. Mitchell and the creation of the Supermarine Spitfire. (shrink)

Manas and consciousness are the way of spiritual development for all atomic spheres, from human to cosmic. The uniting of three minds, lower mind, higher and abstract mind, bears our consideration for the human process of integration and union. The 5th ray word of power "Three Minds unite" might usefully be considered here as a synthetic, holistic meditative undertaking by the three groups of Kumaras, the Venusian 35, and pondered upon as the active three and the synthetic united one. -/- (...) Ray V. 10 x (3.5) = (35) x 10 = (350) x 10 = (3,500) per DN and EP1 AAB, and Sloka 7 SD. HPB. -/- The three groups of "35" organise the three major head centres of the planetary logos. We have the five and three in place of the name and description. The 5th Ray Word contains three words, each of which is composed of five sounds or letters. -/- The word of power for the 5th ray is constructed from the three and the five, which is highly indicative and suggestive, given the other clues to 35. The highly suggestive information here does not underestimate the sacred thirty-five, for it is no coincidence that the three groups of 35 Kumaras hold the keys to the 35 planes of human evolution, within the 35 esoteric mantrams that reveal the inner conscious secrets of planar matter. -/- We might recall that the ray cycle of the fifth ray is 35, 3,500, etc. “1,000 is the number ten to the third power, and therefore 7,000 is also symbolical.” (Commentaries, Stanza One) It is the formula of “ten to the third power” in conjunction with the 10 Sacred Numbers which produce the respective values of the Seven Ray Periods.

The modern conception of the black hole, arising from the equations of General Relativity, presents us with a paradoxical entity: a region of spacetime defined not by substance, but by limit. It is a boundary condition—a locus where curvature becomes extreme, where conventional description falters, and where the known laws of physics approach their terminus. At its mathematical core lies the so-called singularity, not necessarily a physical point, but an indication that our present formulations reach beyond their domain of validity. (...) -/- Yet, long before such constructs were formalised, esoteric philosophy, articulated in works such as The Secret Doctrine by Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, posited the existence of “laya centres” or neutral points: states of suspension between planes, wherein differentiation ceases and potential alone remains. Likewise, the 19th-century formulations of Keely describe an “inter-etheric point,” a vacuous yet potent centre from which force and form alike are derived. (shrink)

Abraham Lincoln's chief concern about the attack on the freedom and principles of America was the rise of financial institutions and businesses, an extreme love of the monetary system, and economic materialism. Lincoln came forth to counter the focus on the forces of materialism, which is documented in his words. Of note is the fact that Bismarck came forth from the realm of cosmic evil. -/- The Tibetan DK indicates major Political individuals who came in on the first ray, demonstrating (...) the differing poles of the first ray with the love aspect of the first ray, as with Atatürk and Lincoln, for instance, and the opposite evil aspect as demonstrated by Bismarck, embodying as a great human avatar the realm of cosmic evil. This implies that he is one of the greatest avatars of destruction the human family has produced. Correspondingly, Abraham Lincoln is equally one of the greatest white lodge avatars that humanity has yet produced. -/- This paper follows a distinctly theosophical and Bailey/DK interpretive framework in which historical figures are viewed not merely politically but as embodiments of ray energies and as vehicles for larger planetary forces. (shrink)

Social organisation and development itself, therefore, becomes the outer mechanism through which consciousness progressively externalises. The growth of cities, institutions, legal systems, industry, transportation, and global interconnection all fall within the domain of Third Ray activity because they represent the intelligent manipulation and organisation of matter. -/- Within this framework, humanity functions as the intermediary planetary centre through which higher energies become embodied in culture and world affairs. The Mahachohan presides not only over intellectual development, but over the gradual refinement (...) of civilisation and culture itself so that material structures may increasingly express spiritual purpose.

The early decades of the twenty-first century have revealed a convergence of military, economic, and ideological pressures centred upon energy systems. This paper examines the targeting of energy infrastructure in the Russo-Ukrainian conflict, situating it within historical precedent and modern technological development. Particular attention is given to the evolution of remote warfare, from the “robot bombs” of the Second World War to contemporary drone systems, and to the psychological and civilisational implications of such methods. Esoteric interpretations, especially those derived from (...) the writings of Alice A. Bailey and the Tibetan (Djwhal Khul), are considered as a parallel interpretive framework. (shrink)

The objective of this paper is to hypothetically prove that the existence of Pop III stars up to 10,000 x Solar masses are the first Master stars or cosmic existences that instigated the incarnation of the known universe. I theorise that ultra-fast spin rotation of black holes is the forerunner to a lessening of spin speed, thus birthing or creating, as speed lessens Star formation due to the lessening of mass expulsion and originating mass or star gravitational attraction and building (...) of a solar mass object or Star. This idea is consistent with the hierarchical cosmology used by the Tibetan (DK) in the teachings of Alice A. Bailey. The idea can be developed quite naturally if we treat my concept of “Master Stars” as a macrocosmic extension of DK’s 'stellar centres of force.' -/- This paper then advances a speculative cosmogenic hypothesis linking high–angular–momentum black holes in the primordial universe with the emergence of supermassive Population III stellar structures, here termed Master Stars. In the earliest epochs following recombination, gravitational collapse likely produced compact objects and extreme accretion systems characterised by near maximal rotational velocities approaching relativistic spin limits. Such high-spin black holes, embedded within dense primordial gas environments composed almost entirely of hydrogen and helium, may have functioned not only as sinks of matter but also as dynamic regulators of mass and angular momentum in the earliest phases of cosmic structure formation.

This investigation is undertaken within the framework of the esoteric astrology presented through Alice A. Bailey and the Tibetan teacher Djwhal Khul, whose writings provide the primary conceptual foundation for the questions explored here. Modern esoteric astrology represents a progressive unfolding: Alan Leo was a principal initiator of the movement from predictive astrology toward the study of character and evolutionary development; Dane Rudhyar developed the birth chart as an archetypal pattern of becoming; and Bailey/DK extended the field into a presentation (...) of astrology as a science of soul purpose, rays, initiation, and planetary relationships. Within this context, esoteric rectification becomes the search for the true symbolic signature of incarnation. The history of modern astrology can be viewed as a gradual movement from the interpretation of celestial influence as external fate toward an understanding of astrology as a symbolic language of consciousness, evolution, and purpose. This transition did not occur through a single revelation, but through a succession of individuals who prepared different aspects of the field. (shrink)

This paper investigates the statement through related passages in Esoteric Healing and other Bailey/Djwhal Khul material. Particular attention is given to the distinction between disease, the normal occult physiology of death, obscure planetary radiation, etheric physical substance, and positive and negative ions. The investigation finds that Bailey's writings contain several distinct descriptions of physical processes capable of producing physiological effects, but that these should not be conflated. The “death-dealing” substance introduced into the blood at death is described explicitly and therefore (...) does not adequately correspond to a mechanism that Djwhal Khul says he is not at liberty to describe. Likewise, the general planetary process of dissolution is described in considerable detail. (shrink)

In 2023, archaeologists at Kalambo Falls reported a wooden structure dated to approximately 476,000 years ago — joined timber predating Homo sapiens itself. This paper takes that discovery as a starting point for a different kind of investigation: not an archaeological argument, but a textual mapping of how a comparable chronological depth for Africa appears already embedded in nineteenth- and twentieth-century esoteric literature, principally H. P. Blavatsky's The Secret Doctrine and Alice Bailey's Tibetan writings. Tracing Blavatsky's shifting geography of Africa (...) — from "a mere fragment in process of formation" during Lemuria, through its emergence in the early Atlantean period, to her explicit dating of African/Atlantean population divergence at "nearly 700,000 years" — alongside classical sources she draws on (Solon, Plato, Pliny) and Bailey's later claim that Africa's occult "day is not yet, but comes in the next cycle," the paper assembles a continuous textual chronology spanning over a century of esoteric writing on the continent's deep past and projected future. The aim is historical and philosophical rather than empirical: to document how a specific chronological imagination of Africa was constructed, sustained, and transmitted across this literature, and to consider what its recurring vocabulary of emergence, isolation, and futurity reveals about the epistemic assumptions underlying Theosophical cosmology — including, notably, Blavatsky's own use of African isolation as an argument against racial determinism. The 476,000-year artefact is not treated as evidence for this chronology; rather, its unexpected proximity to figures already present in the esoteric record is the occasion for tracing where those figures came from, what work they were doing, and how they relate to one another as a body of thought.

To trace the architecture of the cosmos, a writer must choose the precise coordinate from which to speak. The title of this volume, Clear and Still the Night, reflects more than a physical environment; it denotes a state of stilled personal consciousness required to mirror macrocosmic law. -/- The final sealing of these papers occurs under a specific, potent astrological transit: the passage of the Sun through the gate of Leo. For a disciple, transits are not abstract markers of time, (...) but active energetic currents that plug directly into the natal blueprint. This solar transit illuminates the exact line of my birth chart’s Leo-Virgo cusp, a boundary where the individual creative identity of the Lion is systematically refined, structured, and surrendered to the quiet, gestational service of the Virgin. -/- In the outer world, that group fractured under the weight of personal friction. Yet, as an observing philosopher working under the impulse of a tenth-house Aquarian Jupiter, my duty was clear: to protect the transmission. By executing a necessary act of spiritual discrimination, the disagreements of the personality were purged, leaving only the pure grain of the structural data. -/- What follows is the intact, verified record of that inner-plane expedition. Though the names of the collaborators have faded from the page, the inclusive vocabulary of the group mind—the collective "we" and "brothers"—remains woven into the fabric of the text. It stands as an objective conduit, stepping down the vast, mathematical ciphers of the One About Whom Naught May Be Said into a concrete, scientific blueprint to benefit the serving consciousness of mankind.

This paper presents a rare, bottom-up historical record of the foundational era of Taekwondo in the West Country of England during the late 1970s and 1980s. Moving beyond the sanitised corporate timelines of modern martial arts associations, this memoir documents the gritty human realities of the historic 1983 ITF/TAGB split, the expansion of the art into Taunton and Wellington, and the unique cross-pollination between civilian martial arts and elite military training at Norton Manor Camp. Transitioning from the physical discipline of (...) Taekwondo into writing and philosophy is a beautiful evolution, it is, in essence, a movement from practising the Do (the Way) with the body to exploring it with the mind. This paper traces that philosophical continuum, illustrating how the physical mastery of structural form in the dojang provided the cognitive architecture required for independent cosmological, metaphysical, and philosophical research.

I am introducing a profound metaphysical formula, the basis of which was written down in 2007, describing the origin of disease as a function of misdirected desire and will, catalysing third-substance matter (devic, lunar, astral-etheric) within the karmic field. This section formalises the occult mechanism behind disharmony, obstruction, and energetic perversion—and introduces a higher law: The Ancient Law of Evil Sharing, in which disease is a collective karmic distribution of misused force. -/- Below is the formal esoteric presentation of a (...) part of my MKSD manuscript. This applies to the human electrical unit [man], and it is through the “energetic importing” of the higher spiritual will [energy] under the direction of the controlled mind that healing of a diseased area, its mass therein, will be under law, re formed and healed according to its original condition and state of evolution. The diseased mass within the human system will regain mass and health proportionate to its reception of the higher soul energy. -/- It is this fact that the scientists had no conception of, I posit. We should note that in both instances of karma km=mdlc2 producing disease [which it governs] d=3smdlc2 and the aspect of karma producing healing or right conditions, it is the use of the individual directing lower mind that is the motivating and directional force which determines either disease or healing of mass.

The word attendance is itself suggestive. To attend is not merely to be present; it carries the implication of entering into the field of something greater, remaining within its discipline, receiving its influence and participating in its activity. We attend school or college in order to learn, develop and eventually assume a greater degree of responsibility ourselves. In this sense, the attendant relationship need not imply passive subordination. The attendant participates in the life of the centre to which it belongs, (...) and through that participation may progressively acquire the capacity for wider service. The astronomical use of the term therefore acquires an interesting esoteric resonance: to attend a greater centre is potentially to participate in a greater field of life. This paper examines the principle of attendance as an ordered relationship between centres of activity, tracing its possible expression across different scales of cosmic organisation. Beginning with the familiar relationship of the planet to its solar centre, it considers whether analogous relationships may be recognised at the planetary, solar, stellar, and group levels. It carries an ordinary human meaning that makes the cosmic proposition intuitively accessible. To attend school or college is not simply to be physically present. It implies entering an environment, remaining within its discipline, receiving instruction, participating, and eventually becoming capable of functioning independently within what has been learned.

This paper brings together several strands of an investigation that began in my own earlier notes of 2008–09 concerning the cosmological significance of the sevenfold solar and stellar groupings described in the writings of Alice A. Bailey and the Tibetan. Those earlier reflections considered the relationships between cosmic wheels, magnitude, vibration, colour, mutual influence, hierarchical Lives and initiation. The present discussion revisits some of those ideas in light of a recent astronomical development concerning the possible identification of a secondary stellar (...) component associated with Betelgeuse.

Von Braun developed the V2 rockets for the Americans using slave labour from concentration camps, who lived appallingly and died due to poor treatment and conditions. Many of the V2S were taken back to the US along with missile technology that was greatly expanded and developed into today's current arsenal of ballistic and nuclear missiles of the many types known today. The Tibetan uses the word robot to describe the V rocket technology of the Nazis. It is well documented that (...) the V rockets addressed by the Tibetan DK were built using slave labour at the behest of the Nazi scientists. The USA and the Russian counterpart Nazi scientific relocation operation developed the entire one-armed camp as DK described the world. Today we have the world military nuclear, rocket, weapons and drone complex — one armed camp. This continuity reaches its most dangerous contemporary expression in artificial intelligence and autonomous weapons systems. -/- The specific concern about AI removing human decision-making from the nuclear chain, what strategists now call taking humans out of the loop, directly and precisely echoes DK's warning that science would be prostituted to destruction. Petrov's human judgement saved the world in 1983. An AI early-warning system operating autonomously would in all probability have launched. As hypersonic weapons, drone warfare and AI targeting systems proliferate across multiple state and non-state actors, the margin for human correction narrows with each technological generation. DK did not name these specific technologies, but his framework anticipated their logic exactly. (shrink)

There are some names that seem to belong to history, and others that appear to move through history. The name of the Count de Saint-Germain is one of the latter. In the eighteenth century he appeared before the European courts as an enigmatic and unusually accomplished figure; in the writings of H. P. Blavatsky he becomes something more than the mysterious Count of historical memoir. Yet the trail does not end with Saint-Germain. In the later writings of Alice A. Bailey, (...) the Count reappears under another name: Master Rakoczi. More unexpectedly still, the same Master is said to have been known earlier as Francis Bacon, and before him as Roger Bacon. AAB adds a curious contemporary observation: as Master R. assumes an increasing role in European affairs upon the inner planes, the name of Francis Bacon is again coming before the public through the Bacon–Shakespeare controversy.

The passage in the book “A Treatise on Cosmic Fire” invites deep reflection, for it appears to contain two overlapping but distinct narratives, as can be seen below. It appears to be speaking in large part about a highly advanced group of Manasadevas on the line of the three Buddhas of activity, and who at this mentioned time frame will be undertaking a special piece of work. They are awaiting "opportunity" and are free until the next round mid-way point and (...) whose future work concerns the direct stimulation of mind at a logoic level. This situation is analogous to the special piece being undertaken by those Vulcan initiates I have recently been commenting upon, and which almost seems to be a latter thought randomly tagged onto a large paragraph. Almost seamlessly, yet distinctly, he introduces a second group: initiates who undertook special work on Vulcan and must return at mid-Fifth-Round to resume an evolution that was deliberately arrested. Perhaps something was lost or missed out in the editing, but whilst there are strong similarities, they remain distinctly different. The first group of Manasadevas are so advanced that DK remarks we can scarcely conceive of them. Though both are referred to as Egos, they belong to different orders of being. (shrink)

This is an analysis of the four world options presented by the Tibetan DK. -/- The argument I have built is analytical and historical and therefore not advocacy. Another paper dealing with the other options is available. -/- DK presents four world alternatives explicitly, and significantly option 3 — the Russia wiping out option — is presented neither as ideal nor as recommended, but as one of four possible trajectories. DK is mapping the geopolitical landscape with remarkable clarity and detachment.

This is the third in a series of analytical papers examining the four world options presented by the Tibetan DK through Alice A. Bailey. The argument presented throughout this series is analytical and historical and therefore not advocacy. Companion papers dealing with option 2 and option 3 are available separately. This paper examines the historical window of 1945 to 1949 during which the Iron Curtain descended across Europe, and asks whether it was inevitable. -/- Three independent voices, approaching the same (...) strategic reality from entirely different perspectives, all recognised that it was not. General George S. Patton saw it from the battlefield. Winston Churchill saw it from the summit of Allied political leadership. The Tibetan DK mapped it from his esoteric analytical framework. All three were ignored or overruled. The consequences shaped the world for the remainder of the twentieth century and continue to reverberate today. -/- This paper does not advocate for military action against Russia past or present. It presents a historical analysis of a closing strategic window, the voices that recognised it and the decisions that foreclosed the alternatives. (shrink)

A Theosophical Shadow: Systemic is meant, and systematic is how Endersby views it. A vast cosmological bridge and distinction unperceived by the non-occult mind. Only the ignorant would infer or offer "disease" that clearly signifies their own prejudice and blind ignorance. Hardly so far, a ringing endorsement for following students to refer to or endorse. Systemic suns are mentioned in SD, and systemic cycles are mentioned in the theosophical publication, Lucifer. -/- Systemic evolution is covered both in SD and TCF, (...) the latter being the work predicted and referenced word of HPB. It is a continuity of occult teachings of the trans-Himalayan brotherhood, and "disease" does not sit well with that in the sense Endersby meant it. It is quite unfitting for him to do so and for later students to use it. Also, exoterically, "systemic" covers any 'system' regarding the Whole or its entirety. (shrink)

Oil as a material resource, with human freedom as the question of who has the right to control the world's resources. It is not isolated as a political or economic commodity; it is placed within the totality of the Earth's provision for humanity. -/- "The mineral wealth of the world, the oil, the produce of the fields, the contribution of the animal kingdom, the riches of the sea, and the fruits and the flowers are all offering themselves to humanity. Man (...) is the controller of it all, and they belong to everyone and are the property of no one group, nation or race". EXT 197. AAB. -/- Oil may be the material focus, but the underlying issue is whether humanity can establish a world in which the resources necessary for civilisation serve the common good rather than becoming instruments of concentrated power. Contemporary international tensions surrounding oil offer a way of examining that question without assuming that every conflict has a single cause. (shrink)

Revised Edition 2026: What did HPB mean by Fohat, what linguistic origins did she propose, and how far can those proposals be established? The Secret Doctrine, I, p. 16, HPB calls Fohat the “bridge” by which ideas in Divine Thought are impressed upon Cosmic Substance as the laws of Nature. She describes it as the dynamic energy of Cosmic Ideation, working through the Dhyan Chohans, the architects of the visible world. Ingmar de Boer’s study, On the Etymology of the Term (...) Fohat, examines HPB’s changing explanations and the difficulties in identifying the term securely with a known language. (shrink)

This paper traces the structural lineage between Helena Petrovna Blavatsky’s 1889 esoteric critique of the "unproductive classes" and David Graeber’s contemporary framework of "bullshit jobs." By examining the 1880s education reforms championed by Annie Besant and the Fabian Socialists—which deliberately rejected the colonial Macaulay system in favour of unified industrial, moral, and technical literacy—we expose the historical roots of the modern tertiary education crisis.

This study began with a series of references to Galileo Galilei in the writings of Helena Petrovna Blavatsky and Alice A. Bailey, particularly the striking recognition by the Tibetan, Djwhal Khul, of Galileo as a lightbringer whose contribution to human understanding stands alongside that of H. P. Blavatsky. From this starting point, the investigation has followed a historical and esoteric thread through the persecution of scientific dissent, the authority of established belief, and the human consequences of resistance to new knowledge. (...) Galileo's encounter with the Inquisition provides the principal historical reference, while the nineteenth-century case of Johann Karl Friedrich Zöllner extends the inquiry into the reception of unconventional scientific and psychical investigation. Blavatsky's treatment of both men raises questions not only about the acceptance or rejection of particular propositions, but also about the circumstances in which those who challenge prevailing interpretations become objects of ridicule, condemnation or exclusion.

Among the more curious passages in Isis Unveiled are H. P. Blavatsky’s accounts of the ancient “perpetually-burning lamps” — fires said to have remained alight for extraordinarily long periods. At first sight, such accounts belong to the realm of legend. Yet HPB surrounds them with references to particular writers, witnesses, materials and techniques, including asbestos, amianthus and other fire-resistant mineral fibres said to have been fashioned into wicks. This short investigation follows that material thread.

This paper brings together research notes written between 2013 and 2015. The original material moves from the Tibetan’s teaching on gravity and the planetary Entity to reflections on rotary motion, physical light, black holes, Fohat, quantum entanglement and the consciousness of the atom. The text has been lightly edited for grammar, continuity and presentation.

Revised Edition 2026: What did H. P. Blavatsky mean by Fohat, what linguistic origins did she propose, and how far can those proposals be established? These questions lead from the uncertain history of a word to the extensive cosmological role assigned to it in The Secret Doctrine and related esoteric writings. Blavatsky calls Fohat the “bridge” by which ideas in Divine Thought are impressed upon Cosmic Substance as the laws of Nature. She describes it as the dynamic energy of Cosmic (...) Ideation, the intelligent medium through which formative ideas become manifest. This paper first considers the linguistic evidence and then examines Fohat’s described functions in relation to mind, matter, fire, electricity, motion, karma and the formation of worlds. (shrink)

This is a study of the esoteric understanding of the cause and motive of the rapacious nature of man. Throughout history, a sorry tale of rape and murder right up until today. Modern-day slavery and sexual exploitation are a world crisis and one so ingrained in human society that it can go unnoticed or remain hidden in plain sight. -/- The historical patterns of exploitation, conquest, and violence that Blavatsky allegorised in her writings have never truly disappeared; they have simply (...) changed forms. This part 2 of the Oil paper, focuses on 'rapacious demands' or rapaciousness and the development of TB, Tuberculosis, otherwise known as Consumption or the White Death. -/- The paper examines the concept of rapaciousness as presented in the writings of Alice A. Bailey, particularly Esoteric Healing, and considers its wider implications for human conduct, karmic consequence and the development of consciousness. (shrink)

The principle of planetary and solar attendance, occultly understood, and as previously mapped out, is here readdressed and discussed. This paper explores the esoteric principle of attendance and the transfer of vital logoic principles between planetary and stellar bodies. Drawing upon the writings of H. P. Blavatsky and Alice A. Bailey, it considers how the informing principles of a celestial body may be transferred to a new vehicle, enabling its evolutionary process to continue. The aim is to bring together relevant (...) teachings and observations into a framework through which this continuity of logoic evolution may be investigated. (shrink)
