Dear Beloved Humanity,
As we come together on this Fourth of July, I invite you to see beyond the current polarization, confusion, and concern that seem to permeate every level of our society and contemplate the deeper significance of these times.
To understand human history, we must recognize that evolution is twofold. On one hand, the material of life evolves through conflicts, moving from the simplest forms to the most complex, eventually reaching the human level. Simultaneously, consciousness evolves through these various physical forms, and at the human stage, one begins the process of individualization leading to realization and unity with the Source within.
As we look back at the evolutionary patterning of the USA, let us honor the indigenous peoples of North America, whose rich lore and culture hold profound wisdom. Their long history with the Star Nations, the Ancient Shining Ones, and the peoples from beyond this planet offers invaluable insights into our cosmic heritage. Many indigenous bloodlines point to human origins in distant solar systems, with our ancient ancestors bringing their own karmic load from other civilizations with histories reaching back into time unknown.
While most of the colonialist ancestors who came to the North American continent from Europe were what one would call “mainstream,” there were initiates and high-level occultists dispersed within the population. These occultists played a vital role, weaving esoteric knowledge into the foundations of this country. They built sacred landmarks on powerful ley lines, laying down the grid for what was to emerge in future times on the North American continent and across the planetary grid.
Despite the ignorance, suffering, and terrible events that marked the inception of America, we must also remember the universal laws of karmic retribution and the evolution of consciousness. This process, though often ugly, is necessary for what is subconsciously held within the collective of individuals at that time to emerge through collision, struggle, and strife, so that the entirety of the human collective can evolve.
As we look over human history, with all of its conflicts, struggles, and suffering, we must also understand this as a spiritual evolution—a slow climb up the evolutionary mountain. This climb involves the mixing of cultures, ideas, and bloodlines, all guided by a higher impulse.
What we see playing out on the planet, and particularly in the USA, is a convergence of planetary and extra-planetary karmic retribution coming to a climax. It is not just conservatism versus liberalism or gays versus straights, but many different ideological influences from our ancient planetary and galactic past colliding to catalyze rapid transformation on all levels of society, biology, and ultimately collective consciousness.
We can see this transition from the current Post-Atlantean Epoch, which includes all the people on the planet at this time, evolving from family and religious conditioning into higher levels of intellectual thought, philosophy, philanthropy, and emerging into a new vista of intuition and universal connection.
Across the planet, there is a rapid acceleration of consciousness occurring. This evolutionary impulse is known in ancient esoteric lineages, which have begun, in the last century or two, to share their wisdom through new initiatives like the Theosophical Society, the Vedanta Society, and the inflow of Eastern thought into the West.
There have been times when councils, including the Star Nations and higher-dimensional representatives of Earth’s spiritual hierarchy, have wondered, will humanity make it through? How much involvement should they offer? What is the probability that humanity will move beyond polarity into unity? And yet they have persisted and continue to offer their support, holding the vision that the many individuals across this planet and the collectives they create will eventually choose unity over polarity and conflict.
Members of the spiritual hierarchy, ascended beings, and highly developed spiritual entities occasionally incarnate into human form to guide new initiatives, movements, and impulses of thought. These beings help steer humanity’s evolution toward a higher state of harmony within the great diversity of the cosmos and the universe.
In the grand tapestry of theosophy, humanity evolves through cycles, each marked by distinct root races and sub-races. The current Post-Atlantean Epoch represents the crucible for the emergence of the next root race—the Sixth Root Race, the Sixth Human Epoch. This new iteration of humanity is destined to embody higher spiritual qualities, greater unity, and a deeper understanding of our interconnectedness.
Our diversity is not merely a social experiment but a divine orchestration. The blending of different races, cultures, and spiritual traditions creates a rich soil for the germination of a new consciousness. This consciousness transcends the boundaries of nationality and ethnicity, recognizing the divinity within all beings and the oneness of all life.
The mixing of bloodlines, reaching far back into Lemurian and Atlantean times, and through the various races, sub-races, tribal lineages, and family lineages, converges in places like the United States, Australia, and the UK. These regions are significant for the coding that is emerging for the new type of human being evolving into this next epoch.
However, the journey towards this new epoch is fraught with challenges. The materialistic tendencies that dominate our society must be transcended. True progress cannot be measured solely by economic growth or technological advancements but by the cultivation of inner virtues such as compassion, wisdom, and altruism. The crises we face—whether environmental, social, or spiritual—are not obstacles but opportunities for transformation.
As we navigate these tumultuous times, let us integrate the wisdom of the East and the West, harmonizing scientific achievements with spiritual insights. This synthesis will pave the way for a society that values both material and spiritual well-being, fostering a culture of cooperation, justice, and sustainability.
On this day of reflection and celebration, let us recommit to the esoteric ideals that underlie our shared journey. Let us envision a future where the spiritual mission of humanity is fully realized—a future where the principles of liberty and equality are not just political slogans but lived realities, guiding humanity towards the dawn of this next emerging epoch.
May the spirit of unity, love, and higher purpose illuminate our hearts and minds, guiding us towards a world where every individual can awaken to their divine potential and contribute to the positive collective evolution of humanity.
With love and hope,
