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
