A Few Good Initiates
A reader asks if there will only be a small number of fourth degree initiates or higher on the earth at a time. Will only a very limited number ever get the chance at this achievement.
The evolution of initiates progresses in geometrical progression just as does a nuclear explosion. One neutron produces two, which produces four and so on.
As far as higher initiates go, we are still at the beginning of the explosion. When DK was working through Alice A. Bailey, he said that there were about 300 disciples on the earth. This means that 300 had passed the third initiation. He never said how many fourth degrees there were but the number would have been much smaller — like a dozen or less.
So, what happens when we have hundreds of fourth degree initiates? How can we have hundreds initiating revelations with worldwide repercussions?
The answer is simple. When the number gets substantial enough the initiates will receive similar revelations and participate together in group endeavors.
Imagine a dozen Abraham Lincolns working together rather than just one. Imagine how potent that would be.
Many humans will not attain higher initiation in this cycle on planet earth, but such achievement may be millions of years away on another globe.
Through the justice of God all will eventually have the chance to achieve that which Christ has prepared for us.
The idea of a dozen or so fourth degree initiates was just a guess. There could have been less and not likely more. Revelation is the fifth initiation and how successful a fourth initiate is in bringing down and presenting revelation depends on his progress. Some fourth-degree initiates help those farther upon the path of revelation.
A reader wants to know the time period for the geometric progression mentioned.
The time period for the geometric doubling is not given, but it could be an entire age of 2260 years. Therefore, in a period of 100 years we may not presently see a great increase of high initiates.
Also, cataclysms where a large percentage of the population is lost could interfere with that progression.
DK tells us that at the end of our evolution on earth 60% of humanity will achieve a degree of enlightenment necessary to move on and 40% will have to return to another earth like this for more schooling.
I would guess the third degree of initiation will be the goal for that 60%, but that will be millions of years hence.
Reader comment: From reading the Bible it sounds like the separation will happen at the coming of Christ instead of millions of years in the future.
There is a gathering of some kind at the beginning of each new age, but the end of our evolution on earth will not happen at the beginning or the end of the Aquarian Age. Human life and evolution on the earth has millions of years left before it becomes impractical for man to remain here.
The Gospel of Matthew gives a good picture of the end of the Piscean Age and the beginning of the Aquarian and the separation of the wheat from the tares which happens periodically.
However, the end of our evolution here will happen only once, and when it does there will be a final division. The majority will go on to higher evolution and the rest will have to repeat “the earth class” on another earth-like planet.
After the new age is entered those of a lower vibration will just not be able to incarnate for the symbolic 1000 years of peace, but when “the devil” is released again (which is symbolic of mankind embracing destructive ideas) then they will incarnate again. Almost all the souls presently connected with the earth will stay linked to it until the end of our evolution, though both the good and the bad will go through cycles where they do not incarnate depending on what is happening and opportunities available.
A reader criticizes us for placing so much credibility on the writings of Djwahl Khul through Alice A. Bailey. The problem is that he quotes the Bible as if it were infallible so the same criticism could be made right back.
Either DK is a Master or he is not. If he is perceived as a Master then it is logical to assume he sees from a higher angle of vision from ourselves just as the reader acknowledges that Jesus knows more than he does.
At the end of our evolution perhaps sources even outside of our solar system will assist in the final separation.
The reader seems to think that the spiritual laggards will not be permitted to incarnate again. This makes no sense. Why, after a long cycle when we are yet far from learning all our lessons, would such a drastic shift occur? Why would God or anyone else want to make this unnatural thing happen before needed lessons are learned?
The future will be like the past but on a higher turn. In the past the good and the bad incarnated together but there have always been variations.
In the days of Moses those who were closer to Spirit were together with and then separated from the Egyptians and many Egyptians were destroyed. The Israelites were far from perfect, but they were a step up from their enemies, and souls on the other side who belonged to this group incarnated with them.
After the days of Jesus higher minded souls incarnated into the Christian groups and the lower into those of the Roman Empire. There was a natural separation.
There is even a separation of types of souls from one generation to the next. For instance, the “Baby Boomers” were a very different group than was “Generation X.” From the other side souls gravitated to their appropriate generation. This natural gravitation and separation occur with races, nations, associations, families, tribes, etc.
There will not be a permanent separation when Christ comes. After future cataclysms and plagues, it is quite probable that a large portion of those of lower vibration will be swept off the earth and a government of light will be the norm. In that situation karma will dictate that only the deserving will be able to incarnate to take advantage of such good times.
But no matter how hard the people of light try there is always the temptation to return to tyranny and sooner or later the door opens for illusion to return.
Ages hence that door will be permanently closed but we have many lessons to learn yet that will be far from being accomplished when Christ returns.
