Today, 5th of August, there is the launch of “ANIMA Despertar Conciencia“, a new Spanish language channel committed to share knowledge in a completely free basis with the expansion of consciousness as a guiding line.

End of June, the Anima team contacted me to inform about their plans of the new communication project, “ANIMA: Despertar Conciencia” (ANIMA: Awakening Awareness):

“We want to create a communication channel that can reach those people who are not in new age groups but are looking for something else. And we plan to offer:

• interviews with inspiring people
• reports about sacred places
• small courses about science and spirituality, astrology, yoga asanas, meditation, pranayama…
• tips about good living (food, sexuality, drugs, money…) made by youngsters and addressed to youngsters

These are only some examples. All will be done in short videos, podcasts, images and short messages in social media, adapted to the current way of processing information for new generations.”

I knew all of the team but nothing yet about their fascinating project. It was the start of an intense cooperation to prepare the launch of the channel, which is now present, besides their website, on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Spotify and Anchor – on the last two with podcasts. We discussed many topics, such as dealing with money and sustainability, “long term vision for the project Anima: where we want to go? In 1 year in 5 years? And how to proceed in terms of dissemination/spreading of information”, maintaining quality and rhythm, preparing the launch and communication…

It is all volunteer work, and they had prepared the whole project while having to manage family / children, job, intense networking and team coordination.

We met on Zoom every Wednesday early morning – one couple came in from England, the others from Spain. One was joining the meeting on her way to office – from the train, the way to the office and a bit at the office table, all with mask, the others from their kitchen and living room. These were very focused and dynamic talks which I enjoyed very much.

The style of their project is like this cooperation – profound, dynamic, inspiring. And above all meeting the level of today’s young generation. If you don’t know Spanish – like me – see the site with Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome browser for automatic translation.

Today, on August 4th, we commemorate the birthday of Master CVV (1868-1922), who anchored the Aquarian energy on our planet. As per Indian counting, this year is his 153rd birthday; as per Western counting we now celebrate his 152nd birthday.

I already blogged many times about this extraordinary Master who has a profound impact on my life, and shortly also published a video.

Please find below an extract of Master KPK’s discourse at the “Master CVV’s Birthday Celebrations” 2019.

“Hearty fraternal greetings to the brotherhood. Master CVV was born on the 4th of August, 1868 at around 10:20 AM in the morning. That day the moon was in Dhanishta and it was a full moon day of Leo. To this day 151 years completed and we are celebrating the 152nd birthday today. On this day, we have all gathered here this morning to receive the grace of the Master. It is by his will that we could come here and participate in the morning prayer. We should remember that. There are two aspects. One is our thought that we should wake up early and participate in the group prayer today and another is the will of the Master who enables our thought to manifest. When the human effort and Divine will come together, any work happens but just human effort is not sufficient. Divine will depends on our karma and time. However, we should always put an effort if we feel it is a good thing to do. We should not stop putting efforts just because the result might be otherwise. We only have the right to work but no right to demand a result that we want. The result is dependent on many factors which we are unaware of, so better leave it to the Divine.

Not only today, Master CVV promised that he would grace us every morning at 6 AM. So we should be prepared to invoke and get into his presence every morning. On this day, we should pray to the Master that he should reinforce our will so that we participate in morning and evening prayers regularly.

So on this day, Master CVV took a physical form. Before that, his abode was in the Ashram of Master Agastya where he was an advanced initiate. Even after leaving the physical, he continues to be present in the Ashram of Agastya and works from there, granting his presence to everyone who does prayer regularly. Master CVV works on a one to one basis with everyone who invokes him. That is why he called this a path of direct method. He may work through established mediums as well and he can work directly as well. It is upto him on how to function. So we cannot expect how he works. Unexpectedness is the feature of the energy that descended from the highest of planes to this planet via Master CVV.”

At the virtual May Call Day celebration 2020, I presented a PowerPoint about “Master CVV and the Energies of Synthesis”, and it was simultaneously translated into three languages. Srikanth, a friend from California, proposed to make a video out of it.

We discussed the technical questions. Then, I reworked the four language versions, did MP3 voice recordings and asked Miguel, a friend from Argentina, to review the Spanish translation and do the related voice recording. Srikanth then brought the material into a video editor.

Now, the four videos are ready in time for Master CVV’s birthday celebration. He was born on 4 August 1868. If you would like to know more about his extraordinary life, see here or here. Or have a look at the video. Each of the language versions is a bit over 30 minutes. So take your time.

Leo is the royal sign of the zodiac. The lion is the king of the animals. Every human is essentially leonine, seeking freedom. Leo is related to love and the heart. When the activity of the heart centre awakens, there is also the awakening of soul awareness. This is the birth of group awareness.

The symbolism of Leo is visualised in the eleven Leo paintings done between 2010 and 2020. For detailed detailed descriptions please see the ludgerphilips.org website.

Leo stands for the birth of the soul into group consciousness. As soon as the soul in us awakens, we begin to live in the higher consciousness or group consciousness. There is no more need for us to limits and separations like, this is ‘my group, your group, his group’. It is only one group of all beings of the universe. It is one entity called by many names in many groups. The purpose of Hierarchy is to release the humanity from its concretized bondages and perceived limitations so that they can cooperate with the greater purpose, the Plan for the evolution of our planet.

The picture visualizes the joint orientation of the group towards the higher purpose. For the depiction of the large group below, a photo of a group life at Mount Shasta, USA, was duplicated and mirrored. Above, there are pictures from online group meetings fused together as an expression of the physical and etheric interconnectedness. A staircase leads the view to the globe in the background and there to Shamballa. The detail of the globe is created with the help of a picture from WorldWind.earth using NASA images.

Shamballa is the etheric residence of Sanat Kumara in the Gobi Desert, where the purpose of God for our planet is known. He is the regent of the planet, indicated by the crown at the top of the globe. On the left you see the constellation Leo and on the right the glyph of the sign. The central axis was formed with the help of a photo of a galaxy. It reminds us that our system is part of a larger system and is aligned with it.

Were it strange coincidences that I came across the topic of raising awareness for wisdom issues in the younger generation in apparently unrelated situations during the last week?

The topic is already longer in my mind since long but mostly in a dormant state. In a talk with Sri Kumar four weeks ago he gave some proposals concerning youth involvement which I carry in me in a germinal state since then.

Ten days ago, a group of younger people contacted me. They are developing a communication project to reach people who are not in new age groups and they wanted to share their plans with me, and so we had a Zoom meeting last Wednesday. I felt thrilled by their enthusiasm and I decided to accompany them in their project.

Last Friday, I was informed that the website of the youth forum Mithila will be closed on Saturday – inspired by a proposal of Sri Kumar it started 16 years ago and was first intended for a Jupiter cycle of 12 years. And so, it yesterday came to a close.

“Mithila” is the name of the ancientmost school of Wisdom and of wisdom education for the young generation. There are various groups giving Mithila classes and even Mithila schools in India for children from slum areas.

And there is a group in Venezuela especially dedicated to Mithila education who had a comprehensive website on wisdom teachings which, in a series of great challenges, had to be closed some years ago, and I supported an initiative to bring it back to life. Some days ago, I received a call for help due to another new difficult situation, and so I tried to initiate a group of members to support. The project is very dear to me, and there is much goodwill of the members behind.

I thought, one impulse dissolving, another coming up, others continuing and transforming.

About 15-18 years ago, we had a small Mithila group in our town. I was teaching the two boys of a friend and also our two boys basics of living ethics. My wife gave yoga classes to youngsters and we tried to lay a foundation for right living in a time with lot of counter-currents.

Over the years, I had tried to accompany a few young friends through the times of growing up and early adulthood. I felt they are carrying seeds for the future – but it needs much time and crises for growth. Flowers need time to develop.

Also my youngsters have become adults going their ways into life. The contents of what we tried to teach them has transformed into character and attitudes but not the contents – it is part of the transformation of life.

Cancer is the fourth sun sign of the zodiac. The Sun in Cancer is said to be at home. The solar angel finds rest in the heart, its home. The home relates to things of right relationship, love and belonging. In the heart, we can reflect upon our purpose of life and we can attune to the Divine purpose.

The symbolism of Cancer is visualised in the eleven Cancer paintings done between 2010 and 2020. For detailed detailed descriptions please see the ludgerphilips.org website.

A group of seven members yesterday met in and around the Paracelsus Centre of WTT near Einsiedeln, Switzerland to celebrate summer solstice. We were coming from different parts of Switzerland and from Austria.

The preparations were special, different from previous celebrations. Until few days ago, the borders between the central European countries were still locked due to Pandemia measures. In the last days and weeks, the regulations were slowly reverted again with certain caution prescriptions recommended. Besides, members of WTT-Global, Switzerland, were committed to organising international Solstice meditations & celebrations via Zoom, and some, who first thought of participating, decided to stay with the virtual meetings. Around the physical location of Paracelsus Centre, there is an area with no or very little internet connection. We wanted to meet again physically. The weather was quite rainy the days before, and also the day of Solstice started with rain in Austria. In the Swiss area, and also around Einsiedeln however, good weather was announced. And it was more than beautiful.

Around 9 am, we met at the top of the Etzel pass near the Paracelsus Centre, starting our walk to a fire place at the mountain ridge – on the one side you see the Lake of Zurich, on the other the area of Einsiedeln, an old place of pilgrimage, and the surrounding mountain areas. I conducted a fire ritual there. Flowers and fruits as “prasad” were lying in the grass. A sublime ambiance spread around. During the ritual, there were no hikers or bikers coming along the nearby trail, and while the group sang the Maitreya song, a group of hikers waited at a nearby panorama place. After the closed of the ritual, hikers and bikers started coming again.

Sabine had brought a small cooker with freshly cooked rice deliciously spiced “Indian style”. After the picnic breakfast we read for a while a text from the Summer Solstice seminar of Sri Kumar in Germany, 2008 – profound thoughts on the energy and importance of Summer Solstice. We closed there with the Global Prayer for Peace and then walked back. In the meanwhile, the place where our cars had been parked was crowded – many people wanted to enjoy the beauty of nature there. And we wanted to descend to the Paracelsus Centre….

At the centre, we improvised a small altar and started with the noon meditation, intonating 21 times OM. Towards the end, the thought came, that it was just 21 years ago that the Paracelsus Centre started. And so we began to exchange about what we remembered and what we had experienced – how in 1993, Master Kumar read in a Swissair inflight magazine about the celebration of the 500th anniversary of Paracelsus being in Einsiedeln, how, together with Jesús and Tiziana, he walked from Einsiedeln to the birthplace of Paracelsus near the old bridge at the Sihl river and had a vision of an eagle there, a symbol of the Master. How, in 1999, during the May Call celebration on Mount Rigi, the German group proposed to Master Kumar an excursion to the birthplace, where Sabine had participated. How there, the idea of a centre there emerged. How a few days later, it came to be known that a small apartment had just become free in the house at the birthplace and how it was rent. How later that year, there was a group life in Einsiedeln with Master Kumar about Paracelsus, where the centre was inaugurated. How then later, for some years, the centre was established and after a few years again dissolved in Einsiedeln but the Paracelsus centre remained. How the members of WTT-Global supported the project and met on certain occasions there. How inner and outer transformations took place with all members involved. A very profound exchange.

While the three members from Lucerne area had to leave again, we four members stayed. Improvised lunch, a little walk over the meadow to the luxuriant vegetation at the Sihl river, evening meditation and further exchanges. It was already late when we set out for the return journey.

There was an incredible golden light colouring the Sihl lake and the mountains in the background. We stopped at a small parking to take some pictures. Two camper-vans were standing there and three young men just had finished their dinner. A conversation started: They had come from different areas of Switzerland to enjoy nature there, looking for a place to pass the night. We told them about the Sihl river and the mountain ridge. They told us about their experiencing of nature – one of them has started guiding people into nature for “Waldbaden” (forest bathing), Shinrin-Yoku, experiencing the subtle qualities of nature in forests. It seems to be a hype at the moment – I saw many activities in Switzerland on the web. Very nice to spread an awareness of such experiences.

When driving back through the golden dusk and the night, I thought of nature’s movement entering now into the period of six months, until winter solstice, of night, inner and outer darkness. In this time, it is easy to lose oneself in the outer matter, and it is more important to keep the contact with the higher Self.

From summer solstice in Cancer on, the southward movement of the Sun begins. For six months the day decreases and the night increases. Matter grows stronger, the light, the spirit, becomes more hidden. Therefore, this is considered the time of darkness. During this time, we should give particular care not to lose ourselves in the outer world, but to keep the connection with the inner light. When we forget this, we deviate easily from our path.

In the picture you can see two red circles. In the upper circle there is a sunset; the sun is moving down into the sphere of the earth. In the lower circle and even below there is a railroad track, which symbolizes the path into matter. Like hypnotically attracting the gaze, it leads away from the central axis. At the beginning of the path, two people look into the tunnel; their gaze could also be directed upwards towards the light. One of them has a mobile in his hand – the symbol of the present time.

In the upper right corner, you can see the symbol of Cancer and on the left are the stars of the constellation. Below them a water surface is indicated – Cancer is a water sign. The bluish bow indicates the ring of the horizon.

For the upper part of the picture two photos were used, which were taken during an evening take-off from Iguazu Airport, Brazil. The scene in the lower part of the picture is designed with two photos of an automatic train that runs through a tunnel at Zurich Airport to the terminal.

Gemini is the sign of the messenger, under whom many messengers of the gods have appeared at all times, revealing new truths and acting as mediators. Gemini is the expression sign of expression ruled by Mercury. Gemini is also the duality and contains the key to unity.

You find its symbolism visualised in the eleven Gemini paintings done between 2010 and 2020. For detailed detailed descriptions please see the ludgerphilips.org website.
