7 Essential Spiritual Actions

You Can Take 

 to Help Raise the Earth

            There are many ways to serve the planet, and these specific actions are oriented to the Spiritual Server, i.e. one who can learn to work vertically and can help bring into the lower planes the Spiritual impulse and consciousness needed to help the Earth move into its proper position in the heavens.  Copy this page and use it daily.

1. Give the Great Invocation daily. 

          The Great Invocation is a formula for invoking the three principle aspects of the Godhead into the physical.  This is to be given out loud, with authority.  If possible, give this with others for increased potency.

                        The Great Invocation

From the point of Light within the Mind of God

     Let light stream forth into the minds of men.

          Let Light descend on Earth.

From the point of Love within the Heart of God.

      Let love stream forth into the hearts of men

          May Christ return to Earth.

From the centre where the Will of God is known

     Let purpose guide the little wills of men -

          The purpose which the Masters know and serve.

From the centre which we call the race of men

     Let the plan of Love and Light work out

          And may it seal the door where evil dwells.

Let Light and Love and Power restore the Plan on Earth.

I don’t know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know:

 The only ones among you who will be really happy are those who will

 have sought and found how to serve.

                2.      Claim the Earth for Spirit

      There is an opportunity for each of you to make a positive affirmation and take action to anchor Spirit in and on the planet.  Spirit is a broad term, for it may refer to a Ray, to a cosmic Being or to your Higher Self.

      The step to take and repeat as necessary is what we call ‘claiming the Earth for Spirit”.  Very simply, pick a location that is appropriate.  It may be a place in your home, yard or another location.  The only suggestion is a place that is not heavily used.  The object is to establish a point or area in which Spirit can reside undisturbed.

      Upon selecting your place, stand in the middle and give the statement:  I ask Spirit to anchor in this place.  May it serve the Plan for Earth.  I thank thee it is done.

      There’s nothing sacred in these particular words - use what comes to mind, but do not predetermine or influence the nature or activity of Spirit for this action.  It knows what to do.  Our job is to make the call and to act as guardians of the location – nothing else.  Then on an occasional basis, reaffirm the activity.  You may restate the above or merely acknowledge it.

      This can happen at any time or place.  Let Spirit guide, but just think of the potency of many locations as anchor points for bringing Spirit in and for raising the planet.

               3. Holding for the Plan

          One of the great services that one can provide is that of holding, whether it is holding for an individual or a planet. 

      While the personality will desire a certain outcome or result, the goal of holding is one of maintaining a line of integrity without concern for specific outcomes.  In this instance we are holding for a plan to manifest, without knowing what the specifics of the plan may be.

      When we give the Great Invocation we are asking for the plan for earth to be restored.  It is not important to know the details, for a plan such as this is multi-dimensional, subjective and beyond our ability to fully comprehend anyway. 

      When we hold for an individual, we don’t know what that individual’s plan is or how it is to manifest.  This is especially crucial when the person is going through a tough time.  All we can hope is that the situation be resolved in the best possible fashion.  Even the plan for an individual is beyond comprehension, for the details of karmic obligations or growth potentials is rarely evident.

      Your immediate challenge is to hold the Plan for Earth and anchor it in the physical.  The Plan is oriented to the advancement of consciousness and the gradual spiritualization of the lower plans.  Don’t get hung up on such issues as the environment or world peace.  These conditions are effects and will be resolved when the consciousness of humanity is raised.

      Holding is an activity of the heart.  It is neither active nor passive, it just is.  We hold by maintaining a line of truth and integrity.  We can extend love, but not opinion or emotions.  The latter are not helpful and can be obstructive.  Our personal interest/s are irrelevant. 

Be still and know that the plan will manifest in its own time and fashion.  By the way, this applies to yourself.  Hold for yourself as well.  This may alleviate some anxiety from time to time. 

          With love I acknowledge and sustain the Immaculate Concept for Earth and commit myself to its manifestation.  God’s plan is unfolding here and now.

          Say it, live it, be it.  The details will take care of themselves.

           4.  Invoke the Christ 

          The Plan for Earth is to bring the Christ consciousness into manifestation.  This is also known as Buddhic consciousness or the 2^nd Ray of Love-Wisdom.  The Earth and the Solar System of which it is a part is the 2^nd Incarnation of the Solar Logos and is charged with perfecting the 2^nd Ray expression. 

          The Christ may be invoked in a variety of ways.

              a.    Through prayer and/or meditation

    b.      Through decrees:  Decrees are the invocation of energy through the power of the spoke word.  Examples are available in Essentials of Esoteric Service.

Christ Decree

I AM the Christ,

And thus I stand as a channel for the Christ.

Through me does the Holy Mind of the Christ

Permeate the planet and all thereon.

Through me shall the love of the Christ

Pour forth into the atmosphere of Earth.

Through me shall anchor the Will of the Christ

In all mankind.

God’s Plan shall manifest in and through me this day.

         c.   Learning to qualify energy – using physical actions to manifest and apply energy.  This is covered in the manual Qualification of Energy.

5. Bring the Violet Flame into your daily actions.

          The Violet Flame is an aspect of the 7^th or Violet Ray or the Ray of Ceremonial Order & Magic, which is the primary Ray expression of the age just coming into manifestation.   Extensive use of the Violet Flame is covered in the manuals Essentials of Esoteric Service and Qualification of Energy, but here is a basic exercise you can use.

          One way to invoke the Violet Flame is to ask that it transmute your energy from the day, for        example:

“I ask the Violet Flame to burn up through me and every person, place, condition and thing I have contacted in the last 24 hours, to transmute all of my misqualified energies.  I ask that the transmuted essence be returned to me with the wisdom to use it wisely.”

6. Grow in your service and clean up your own karma.

          It’s that simple!  Actually, this is a life time effort.  The publications we have available can help, but you need to find those associations and teachers that can help you along.  You must study and learn, but, most importantly, apply.  As you raise your vibration and consciousness, you raise everyone you contact and every place you go. 

          The key to realizing the Spiritual nature of your service is the rebuilding of the conscious connection to the Higher Self, which is known as the antahkarana.  This connection is built through application and conscious effort.  It is living the path of initiation, which is the progressive system designed to unfold consciousness and raise the lower bodies.

          The best way to grow is to serve. 

           All this being said, one specific technique you can use today and on a regular basis is to reclaim your past energies – a sort of Cosmic dust mop.  This will work best if you focus on places and times you have lived.  It is best to focus on one location at a time and use a map if it helps you to visualize.  This can be used for past lives, if you are aware of them.  (You may have a sense of locations or periods in history without knowing the specific embodiments.)

           So get out your map and focus on one location, say where you grew up.  Align to your Presence and say out loud.

In the name of my I Am Presence, I ask that all of the energy I have left at ________( location) on all planes, subplanes and for all Beings of the Elements affected, be reclaimed.  These energies are to be placed in the Flame of Divine Justice and the purified essence returned to me under the direction of my Presence.  I ask for the Violet Flame to blaze through the _________(location) to bless the Beings and all those affected.

          Repeat this as necessary until you feel a release.    Multiple times may be needed, in fact, for optimum effectiveness, do this for every plane - the physical, the emotional and the mental.

Your work is to discover your work and then with all your

 heart to give yourself to it.

7. Support worthy activities.

          Identify those activities and individuals who are serving the Plan.  Then provide as much support as possible – especially financial.

          The question is how to identify those who are worthy.  This is not as obvious as it may be, for the new age landscape is covered with a wide range of individuals and organizations plying their wares, just as this site is doing.  It is not our place to make this determination for you, but make sure there an orientation to growth and to service and to preparing people for service.  Those activities that are legitimately sponsored by the Ascended Masters are excellent candidates for your support.  Note the word legitimately.  Many activities are focused on making people feel good, but this is not what it is all about.  What it is all about is growth and growth requires work, application, honesty, pressure and change.

           So get out your checkbook and make a regular commitment.

I urge upon each and all ... the necessity for renewed effort to fit themselves for service by a conscious and deliberate effort to develop the intuition and to achieve illumination.  Every human being who reaches to goal of light and wisdom, automatically has a field of influence which extends both up and down, and which reaches both inwards to the source of light, and outwards into the “fields of darkness”.  When he has thus attained, he will become a conscious centre of life giving force, and will be so without effort.  He will stimulate, energise, and vivify to fresh efforts all lives that he contacts, be they his fellow aspirants, or an animal, or a flower.  He will act as a transmitter of light in the darkness.  He will dispel the glamour around him, and let in the radiance of reality.

When large numbers of sons of men can so act, then the human family will enter upon its destined work of planetary service.  Its mission is to act as a bridge between the world of spirit and the world of material forms.  All grades of matter meet in man, and all the states of consciousness are possible in him.  Mankind can work in all directions, and lift the subhuman kingdoms into heaven, and bring heaven down to earth.
