For the Scorpio Meditation today – mantrams.
Scorpio Solar Festival – Today at 1:26pm (PT).

Together in the Ashram, under the Scorpio Sun, we reach into the Light & bring it down to meet the needs of humanity.
The NGWS everywhere are gathering in meditation.
Let us join them.

Scorpio is Ray 4 – humanity learning & struggling for harmony through conflict & chaos.
Let us offer all that we have to assist humanity by standing with the Forces of Light.

Precipitation (down flow of energies).
We visualize this in our meditation.

The Precipitation of Light at the Scorpio Festival.
The Light flowing into the Earth during the Scorpio festival….
~begins with Sirius (Ray 2) & from Rays 2 & 4 in the Big Dipper.
These rays & the Light of Sirius flow into Scorpio.
Then into the heart of the Sun, absorbing Love/Wisdom.
Then into Shamballa, where the Will of God is Known.
We stand with Sanat Kumara, the Lord of the World.
And then into the Hierarchy, standing with the Great Ones & the Christ, at the heart of Hierarchy.
Then the Light flows into the New Group of World Servers.
This is where we stand.
We receive the Ray 4 Light of Scorpio.
We stand as warriors of the Light.
With our creative imagination, we see the great Centers aligning & working together.
Humanity, Hierarchy & Shamballa.
We have passed the 9 tests, subdued the Hydra (our personality).
We stand in the Light of the Soul & the Light of Scorpio.
Gathering the Light, holding the Light, we radiate the Light to humanity & the Kingdoms.

We recite together the following mantram, as we radiate the Light of Scorpio, the Light of Ray 4, the Light of Sirius to the hearts & minds of humanity everywhere.

We know, O Lord of Life and Love, about the need;
Touch our hearts anew with love, that we too may love and give.

Forces of Light Invocation
(we stand with them in dedication & constancy)

May the Forces of Light
bring illumination to humanity.
May the Spirit of Peace
be spread abroad.
May people of Goodwill everywhere
meet in a Spirit of Cooperation.
May forgiveness on the part of all humanity
be the keynote at this time.
Let power attend the efforts of the Great Ones.
So let it be, and help us to do our part.
Together…
We see the goal, reach the goal, then we see the next goal (Sag).

“Warriors are we & from the battle we emerge together triumphant.”

The Light streams forth into the world, into the hearts & minds of humanity everywhere. And into the Kingdoms.

We offer love and compassion to humanity & for humanity along with the Scorpio Ray 4 harmony light.
Scorpio – where the Three Lights Meet.
The light of form, the Soul & Life Itself.
They meet, blend, fuse & Rise Up.
With our creative imagination, we lift humanity up to the light of Scorpio.

Radiance Mantram
(the Light becomes the “waters of life for thirsty humanity”.
It contains information humanity seeks)

Together, wherever we are, and also from within the Ashram, in vocal unison as a group, facing the world & Humanity, radiating the Light from our Ajna centers (middle of the forehead, our center of Direction), we say together…

“Radiance we are and power.
We stand forever with our hands stretched out,
Linking the heavens and the earth,
The inner world of meaning
And the subtle world of glamour.

We reach into the Light and bring it down to meet the need.
We reach into the silent Place
And bring from thence the gift of understanding.
Thus with the light we work
And turn the darkness into day.
And turn the darkness into day”
(from Glamour: A World Problem, p. 232-233)

As we recite this together as a group, with intention & radiance, we visualize the turning of the great searchlight, which we have jointly created by our unified light. And we see that with our Radiant Light that all glamours, illusions, confusions, mayas, separations are dissipated. We hold the light steady realizing mentally the work of dissipation it is doing the job it is intended to do – to cease the ignorance and illusions on Earth so that humanity can come to a state of true discernment and discrimination. And thus make Right Choice.

We recite the Great Invocation.
Seeing the inlets/outlets lighting up, receiving the Great Invocation, distributing this great prayer & the Scorpio Light throughout the world.

“Only when humanity offers all that it has to give to the service of the sad, the suffering and the oppressed, and will work actively and intelligently to bring release, can that full cooperation be established between the inner and the outer potencies which is so deeply needed at this time.” (The Externalisation of the Hierarchy, p. 279)

Questions for study.
To work with the energies we being first with the knowledge of them. Then we look at our astrology charts, our guides.
So…
Where is 24 degrees Scorpio (Scorpio solar festival) in everyone’s chart? Scorpio is the sign of the warrior.
The personality becomes the warrior along with the Soul.
Where is 13 Pisces (Saturn direct) in everyone’s chart?
What area of life for both?

We stand today together, safeguarding the Scorpio light.
The light of the personality, the light of the Soul & the Light of the Will to Good. Meeting, blending & rising up within each of us.
For humanity. love, Risa

And so….
In our Hall of Learning today in the Ashram, I am going to write about hate. A study of hate. The information will come from the Blue Books – the Alice Bailey/the Tibetan’s esoteric information blue books that outline the esoteric laws, the spiritual laws.

Hate Is An Interesting Subject.
We are seeing it everywhere these days in this Kali Yuga.
It is running rampant in our country especially & many who vote on the left for Harris did so because they hate the true president.
So it seems appropriate to work phenomonologically in that what we see out in the world is worthy of study.
And so….what is Hate? What is its nature, how do we define it, recognize it & how to we neutralize it?

It seems many of us are interested in the subject of hate as seen by the many, excellent, varied & thoughtful responses to the questions of hate speech. All the responses perfect, & they displayed the different ways we think, research & even the questions we ask.

First of all I am going to answer the question I posed. Why is hate speech NOT free speech? Many in their answers went to the legal aspect of speech, both free & hate speech. And that was good. However, very subtly I kept saying I am looking also for the esoteric spiritual answer as to why hate speech isn’t free speech & the answer would upend most of our thinking minds.
To answer the question as to why hate speech isn’t free speech.
Because the hater is not free within the self.
Because the speaker of hate is NOTE FREE within the self.
Therefore their speech IS NOT FREE!
This answer turns our minds around into thinking in a new way.
Not in a legal way. But in a way of turning it around to our own states of being, to our awareness, to where we stand in terms of how we each speak? From what center within us do we each use language, communicate, speak? That is the point of the original question.

Why is the person who uses hate speech not free?
Only when our personality (physical body, emotions, lower mind) (see the Contitution of Man) is directed by the Soul, are we actually free?
Free of what?
Of the dense physicalness of the waters of the emotions.
Of the confustions, illustions, distortions, mayas that do not let the light of truth pierce thru the lower mind. One who hates does NOT THINK. One who hates is drowning in emotions (water) & misuses the gift of speech (throat chakra) to throw energetic arrows to that which one hates. This is one who has no control. They are not free from the lower levels of the animal nature. They are not using their human faculties. They are within the animal nature of aggression. Again, they are not human & therefore they are not free. Their hate speech is not free speech. Their hate is an aversion, a repulsion, A WITHDRAWAL FROM HUMANHOOD. Their hate also breaks ne of the basic laws of the solar system. It negates unity, causes destruction & death.
Hate is the reslt of personality ignorance & mis applied desire.
It is NOT fear which many say it is. Hate is MIS APPLIED DESIRE (emotional waters of desire). Extreme ignorance & misapplied desires. Hate is aversion.

To hate is a complete separation from the other.
Hate is regarded as the only sin, the root of all other sins.
Hate is a sin against the Holy Spirit (Ray 3).
The excessive expression of hate so predominant in our world today has reached a new high especially in our country & it can only be counteracted by an equal & proportionate measure of Love & Goodwill.
If hate has to do with desire…that would be the next study. What is the nature of desire? Desires create attachments to desire’s outcomes. When the outcomes are not met, hate appears in those whose life’s energy is on the lower levels of awareness. There is NO awareness, no consciousness, no curiosity, no sense of Goodwill. There is only DESIRE. Desires not met = hate.
It is NOT fear as so many say (a glossing over of the reality).
Hate is the result of unmet desires.
There is a need to develop a balance of opposites.

The Forces of Darkness work to preserve hate in humanity. There is the seed of hate in all of humanity. And this seed of hate is stoked by the brothers on the left hand path. The F/D preserve this ancient crystallization of hate, luring those immersed in desire to lash out in hate towards all that lives. The F/D block the life giving love & goodwill within humanity & thus hate flourishes. Desires fostered by materialism & the F/D bring blindness to the people, & steadily feed the fires of hate, criticism, cruelty & of separativeness. The F/D cloak their efforts in fair words, in a false light. They lead even disciples to express hatred of persons and ideologies, fostering the hidden seed of hatred found in many.
They fan to fury the fear and hate in the world in an
effort to preserve that which is old and make the unknown appear undesirable, and they hold back the
forces of evolution and of progress for their own ends. These ends are inscrutable to many.

It is so easy to drift into the same habits of speech and thought (of hate) which we find around us and to discover ourselves participating in attack and the spirit of hate. We must guard
ourselves strenuously against this and say nothing which could inflame hate and create suspicion in
connection with any person, event, place of thing.
Thus we do not break the Law of Love.
There will be many to hate the new, the untried & the unknown.
Standing with a loving heart one is able to show love to all being (loving detachment) which then begins to stamp out hate & the sin of separativeness. This arrests the fires of hate & agression.
Intentions always for Goodwill arrests the fires of hate.
One must always be aware of the possibility of expressing hate.
Keep a close personal watch over every thought thought, every word said or written, so that nothing said or written
will have in it hate criticism judgment or bias of the wrong kind. Then all minds and hearts will be kept clear of any destructive
undesirable reactions.

On the other side of hate is love. And the Hierarchy, which calls to us. In the face of knowing about hate, we are to preserve the flame of love, keeping it intact, permitting no breath of hate to disturb the serenity of love or upset that inner poise which
will enable us to sound forth the clarion note of world understanding, that will rally all men and
women of goodwill to the aid of the Hierarchy. Thus we are the world disciples, & in the battle which we see in our world, we are together, triumphant. The Scorpio task.

Our study together. And so now we know more. love, Risa
