Chapter 15 The Sevenfold Purpose of Shamballa

This chapter outlines the divine objectives of SANAT KUMARA, the Lord of the World, in manifesting the planetary Logos’ will during the current planetary Manvantara. These purposes are rooted in the second Ray of Love-Wisdom and guide the evolution of the Earth Scheme through seven distinct expressions.

15.1 The Seven Purposes

  1. Manifested Unity:
    • The unification of the three planetary centers—Shamballa, the Spiritual Hierarchy, and Humanity—into a cohesive whole.
    • This purpose began with the arrival of the Lords of the Flame, the establishment of Shamballa, and the individualization of humanity, creating the foundation for planetary evolution.
    • Fueled by cosmic energy from the first Ray, this energy originates in the Constellation of Ursa Major and is transmitted through the planet Vulcan.
  2. Revelation:
    • The progressive illumination of human consciousness, enabling individuals to recognize divine truth and align with the planetary Logos’ will.
    • Revelation is a continuous process of spiritual adaptation, leading to enlightenment and initiation, fueled by the second Ray energies from Sirius via Jupiter.
  3. Creative Activity:
    • The mental organization of the planetary Logos, coordinating the planes, kingdoms, and human vehicles to manifest divine purpose.
    • This purpose is symbolized by the three Kumaras and their work in unifying the lower planes and kingdoms, supported by third Ray energies from the Pleiades via Saturn.
  4. Beauty and Harmony:
    • The elimination of pain and conflict, replacing them with harmony and beauty across all kingdoms of nature.
    • The fourth Ray energies from Libra via Mercury inspire humanity to transcend conflict and create a harmonious world, with the vegetable kingdom as a model of beauty.
  5. Cyclical Manifestation:
    • The organization of evolutionary cycles, enabling humanity to understand its place in nature and align with divine rhythms.
    • This purpose emphasizes the development of the concrete mind and the Antahkarana bridge, guided by fifth Ray energies from Taurus via Venus.
  6. Divine Recognition:
    • The transformation of desire into spiritual aspiration, leading to the recognition of divine will in all forms.
    • This purpose operates on the astral plane, evolving through cycles of desire, emotion, and creative feeling, supported by sixth Ray energies from Pisces via Mars.
  7. Organized Magic:
    • The infusion of spirit into form and the redemption of matter through the creative magic of the Logos.
    • This purpose involves the invocation of cosmic forces and the manifestation of archetypes, driven by seventh Ray energies from Aquarius via Uranus.

15.2 Key Themes

  • Cosmic Energies and Rays: Each purpose is linked to a specific Ray and constellation, channeled through planetary centers and Ashrams to fulfill the divine plan.
  • Archetypes and Symbols: Archetypes serve as divine blueprints, guiding the evolution of forms, races, and kingdoms toward perfection.
  • Unity and Integration: The ultimate goal is the harmonious integration of all planetary centers, kingdoms, and beings into a unified expression of divine will.

15.3 The Role of Shamballa

Shamballa acts as the central hub for these purposes, channeling cosmic energies and coordinating the activities of the Spiritual Hierarchy and Humanity. Through its work, the planetary Logos’ will is manifested, guiding the Earth Scheme toward its ultimate destiny of love, wisdom, and perfection.
