Creativity. Elsewhere Bailey calls them "The Departmental Heads... three great Beings"
44
, using Hindu
terms and assigning to them 3 respective spheres of activity: "Manu" (Sanat Kumara - matter, form,
body, not-self; relating to governments and races), "Bodhisattva" (Maitreya - spirit, life, self; realized in
religions and beliefs) and "Mahachohan" (Lucifer - intelligence, mind, soul; expressed in science,
civilization and education). Notice that matter is equated with "not -self"; this follows the ancient gnostic
idea that the physical must be destroyed to bring forth the true "self". Bailey affirms that Sanat
Kumara's job is indeed to destroy, using the Shamballa energy, to make room for the new.
Lucis Trust, the organization dedicated to distributing Bailey's writings, considers the Shamballa
force to be "a demonstration of the beneficent will of God", in that it "tends to destroy all forms that
hinder the emergence of a new and better world the political field."
According to Bailey, Sanat Kumara is the only one known to
man who attained the 7th initiation, placing him at the summit
of the Logos pyramid as the one who "alone is self -
sufficient". Bailey characterizes him as the incarnation of
"one of the 7 spirits before the Throne - the greatest of all
Avatars". She also borrows liberally from Christian imagery,
even quoting New Testament passages to describe him.
In this passage, she even goes so far as to say that Sanat is
"literally the Planetary Logos Himself", and describes the
Logos as taking "the form of Sanat Kumara", the other two
being "the outcome of the triple nature of the Planetary
Logos."
These call into question whether Maitreya and Lucifer have a separate identity at all, or are to be considered
emanations of Sanat Kumara.
For the sake of comparison when Bailey charts the "three great planetary centers"
45
she lists
"Humanity" (Lucifer's domain) as the first "expression of divine livingness", having been manifested
"in the first solar system"; chronologically this makes Lucifer the senior partner in the Logos. Then
"Hierarchy" (Maitreya's responsibility) appeared "in the second solar system" (our present era) but
is yet to "come into full manifestation upon the physical plane". "Shamballa" (Sanat's rule and "the
directing center for the Hierarchy") is not due to manifest until "the next solar system"; however, for
reasons unexplained, it is only now that the three "meet simultaneously at various stages of
livingness." Even more curious, "it is only through human beings that these centers can ever come
into true functioning activity." From this it may be concluded that
puny, unascended man
is actually
in control of the mighty Logos, who is/are dependent on his invitation and involvement in order to
truly function.
