The 8th May is celebrated as ‘White Lotus Day’, in remembrance of Helena P. Blavatsky (1831-1891), who passed over on this day in the year 1891 – 130 years ago. Madam Blavatsky is regarded as the white lotus that unfolds afresh the beauty and fragrance of new age wisdom. She synthesized the universal wisdom and presented afresh Cosmogenesis and Anthropogenesis, explaining skilfully the story of man on earth. In all she did, she dedicated entirely her life to the noble work of the Hierarchy.
In the book “Symbolism of the Scriptures”, Overseas Messages 9, Master EK explains the symbol of the white lotus and gives a beautiful visuation:
The Goddess of Wisdom, Saraswathi, “is the Goddess who conveys knowledge through the living beings. She is described as seated in a milk white lotus. So, to those who have studied the Indian scriptures, the milk white lotus is a very sacred symbol. It is a symbol of wisdom and the joy that is felt through wisdom. A meditation of the milk white lotus in mind purifies all the mental vehicles within a short period. If you are lucky, within a shortest period, this is three years according to the Masters. The meditation of the white lotus opens up the gates in your personality, so that your Master makes a contact with you. You cannot make a contact with your Master. Master does not mean any name we think of, which means someone who knows us, whom we do not know. If we think that we know our Master, he is only our idea but not our Master. So, the fact is the Master knows us. We never know who the Master is. That is how it is described in the scriptures. But a meditation of the white lotus daily for a few minutes opens up the gates of your personality that are working as barriers between you and your Master in the form of your belief and your own valuable concepts which you are not ready to part with. So, it is a healing from self-conditioning that we get by meditating upon this white lotus. To make us meditate upon the white lotus while reading the scriptures they have described the Goddess of Wisdom sitting in a white lotus.”
May we remember her HPB’s life and work to also devote our lives to the work for the Divine Plan.
A Russian drama documentary made for Russian Television in 1991 about Helena Petrovna Blavatsky
In the 90s, I wrote a short biography about Blavatsky and sent it to a German documentary film maker proposing to do a documentary – he did not react. I did not know that in Russia such a documentary had already been done. For the May Call 2005 celebration in Delphi, Greece, I got the text printed and distributed in 4 languages. Here it is in html and PDF version: “H.P.B. – Trailblazer for the Aquarian Age”
I took the first anti-covid19 vaccination 10 days ago. I first wanted to wait with blogging about my experience until I had the second vaccination in mid-May (see the blog-post here). But yesterday, Sri Kumar gave a text asking to inform this to all groups: “As regards vaccination: Guidance is sought if we should take the vaccination. Two versions are emerging. One is Yes. The other is No. My view is, it is safer to vaccinate than to stay without. Eliminate Fear and Doubt from mind. Follow the Gov.tal direction of the land. It does not affect the spiritual progress. Master DK also expressed this view during the last pandemic.”
I decided taking the vaccination before and I now decided to write this blog-post, because having sent out the message, I then received mails of members confused or opposing the statement…
Extract of the “map” of the University Clinic of Berne “Insel” (island) – at the top the “Institute for Infectuous Diseases”
For the last year I tried to remain an observer as per the whirlpool of information and opinions about what to do with the Covid-19 pandemic. People sent me their thoughts and partly urged me to forward “important info”. I listened and read but didn’t act – and I didn’t add my opinions. I felt like in a hornets’ nest.
All my life, I was a sceptic as per vaccinations, never taking any since after childhood days – until recently. I witnessed a slow change in my attitude. The many pieces of mere information and opinions didn’t really influence me, but exchanges with friends did and the first cases of corona in my close surroundings as well as deaths of near ones of friends due to corona. (For those understanding German, there is an interesting – a bit lengthy – article on “Anthromedics” about questions around Covid19 vaccinations by leading anthroposophical doctors from Germany and Switzerland; see the section: The Process of Vaccination Decision) – the anthroposophists are not known for being vaccination-friendly but here they strongly recommend this vaccination in view of all the more serious short and long term damages done by the virus and its variants.)
Queue in front of the vaccination centre tent
In January, I had a Skype call with my cousin, a doctor of biology, saying “Of course, I will get myself vaccinated. And of course, it is clear for me as a biologist that every vaccination has side-effects if it is to be effective. The healthy child of close friends became wheelchair dependent since 50 years now and I saw other cases of vaccination injuries. But it is a matter of benefit-risk assessment, and the impact of covid-19 on health in short and long-term perspective is a much more serious toll. And for a biologist it is clear that the more aggressive versions of the virus will quickly outrun the softer ones and further escalate the matter.”
Beginning of December 20, a friend gave me the text of an e-mail she was going to send to Master Kumar expressing her concern about vaccination impact, saying that many doctors are fighting against the big lies and manipulations of those who want to impose the vaccine on us. “It has not been checked enough, but they are in a hurry to implant it. This vaccine has terrible side effects in the body, it causes genetic bad changes and disorders in the cells of the body… and will kill great parts of the population.” And she asked what attitude we should have towards the vaccination. He just answered “Just take the vaccine and get out of all fuss”.
Entrance into the vaccination centre tent
She felt bad that she had asked but I replied: “You submitted the concern on the basis of the virus discussion going on esp. in the naturopathic / alternative circles. He is looking from a higher perspective. I would have been astonished if he gave another answer and put members into a conflict who want to obey the vaccination, or put them even against legal regulations in their countries. (He also argued against all criticism against the mobiles and radiation, though many scientists warn.) I am sure that by law-abiding, even if it is human law, the karma is not yours but that of the greater whole. Instead, if you go by other considerations – though they seem very right from the plane of mental understanding – it is from this plane only and might not be in accordance with the higher plane. I will wait as per the general development and, in case, take the vaccination, focused on the Plan of the Soul.” These thoughts further germinated in me.
In February, I took the decision to get myself vaccinated – not for my personal safety but because of perceiving the health, social and economic impacts of the pandemic. The impact is a collective matter / karma and I didn’t want to stay aloof but do the related experience through vaccination. On 21 April I could take the first dose in the vaccination centre of the university clinic of Berne (no choice between the variants, I got Pfizer/Biontech). In the afternoon and the following day, I felt groggy, for short moments also nauseous. On the second day especially, I felt like having inwardly a grey veil over my awareness and I had difficulties to concentrate and work with complex mental matters. The meditations were hazy. But since the third day, I felt stable again and didn’t witness any disturbing influences. This is now over a week back. I will take the second vaccination on 19 May.
Information posters in the entrance area
As a reaction on the information of Sri Kumar, a friend this morning sent me some lines writing: “Good mediums of mine and other great people see that this injection stuff is made to disconnect somehow the person from its soul source. And we are going to see the results quite soon. Really, with all my respect, Master KPK is is not seeing clearly the deal and treat us as sheep when it comes to follow governments that are not for their people! Anyway, free will is at play here!” (It made me think of the urgent warnings in books about not to do any lumbar punctures so as not to disconnect from the soul and lose the memories of the past. I needed to get a lumbar puncture when in hospital with a brain bleeding 2.5 years ago. And I recovered perfectly well.)
I forwarded these and other remarks to Sri Kumar, and he replied: “It’s a suggestion, not a direction. Free Will prevails at all times. I do not prepare sheep. But there [are] sheep too. Every member can decide by himself or herself in all matters.”
I am now beyond the sphere of whether or not – I am willing to stand related personal consequences, as part of my path, of the Path of Experience. And I will continue to collect thrown-away hygiene masks in forests, meadows, or along the roadside to put them into the waste bins during my daily walks.
There was a pause in the exchange with my friend from the Pacific coast of South America (see the previous blog-posts). Then came an e-mail which touched me very much. It is a bit long but a beautiful example of inner guidance in a situation of danger. In the text I give her interjections in [brackets]. Like in the previous blog-posts, the first two photos are from South America – the following pictures are spring impressions from morning walks through our Swiss neighbourhood and not related to the content.
She: “I’m happy to have the opportunity to write to you again. You may ask yourself why I didn’t write any more. Something very strange happened to me one month ago and I’m still trying to find the real sense of that experience.
In one of my emails I said that some time ago I have been in a kind of ‘looking inside’ and I found the book ‘Jupiter‘ in WTT, as well as Pythagoras and other books from great masters. So, I tried to absorb and implement the teachings in my life. I moved to a flat far from my family (I don’t have neither husband nor children, I solve my life working in the field of information security).
Well, some day I had a dream (my father died last year from a heart attack) and he was dressed in a pure white and he told me, “Now I’m ready to help you!!” I answered… “Dad but no one will see you….” And he replied… “Don’t worry, it doesn’t matter”… That day I just woke up confused and I said… What? – And then…
To make a long story short… Some people who lived close to where I lived got confused, they thought I was another kind of person and those people were surprised and estranged that I did things like getting up early, meditate, going to the beach and say hello to the sea and fishes, walk, doing exercise, talk to the moon and things like that. (Actually they thought I was like an undercover police officer).
I was relaxed because I have been living alone for years but they were like suspecting that I was another person and you won’t believe me… I was one millimeter to death. They damaged my lock, jumped from the floor. Also they came to my house – without my permission – with the help of a person who cleaned there once a week.
I was able to escape because something strange happened … I felt like someone putting thoughts in my mind, like telling me do this and do that, take this taxi, change this way…. things like that…. I had to leave all my stuff in that place. I only could take with me just a little bag that day… Finally, I travelled from one city to another but the way was full of people so they could do nothing but they crossed a van on the road with a very bad threat on its back. That’s why I had a kind of shock and I also was in a kind of quarantine because I was scared. But now I’m safe fortunately. I can tell you that I’m aware of violence and war here in my country, but now I’m even more conscious and surprised about that.
During this time many thoughts came into my mind… Why now that I’m trying to do the best I can? Why me if I don’t do anything bad to people? … I don’t even want to damage animals, that’s why I’m trying not to eat them… Why now that I’m trying to be conscious of being grateful with God and the universe?…
I told you a summary of what happened in that time but I really can tell you that it is a miracle that I’m alive… So it’s not enough to be a ‘good person’ to be protected… as I see enlightened beings protected me and helped. But I think that it is not enough to be like ‘good’ (if I can deserve to say that)… but one has to pray for protection even if one thinks that one doesn’t deserve a bad thing… It is like you don’t have guaranteed protection… Beings can be ready to help you but if you pray then you give them a kind of ‘Go ahead’…
I don’t really know how to explain this but it’s like… spiritual beings can do marvellous things in your life but you still have free will. I realised that every single little thing happened because great and big forces (not just physical but spiritual) move the universe and, as a consequence, our hearts… not because something manipulates them but because we are a part of everything.
Finally, I want to tell you that I’m aware to be a volunteer is a process, and I’m aware that it is something for which there is no material retribution, and also I know that maybe my help is not useful now because I don’t have the knowledge that you may need for me to help. I just want to say that I’m here, whatever I be or whatsoever I know if I can help, I am here.”
Me: “Sorry for replying late – it’s not my usual way of replying but there was (is) a big wave of activities around. [Don’t worry, I understand 🙂 ] Thank you very, very, very much for your lines, sharing with me your profound experience. And most happy that you survived. [Thanks 🙂 ]
This is a clear sign of guidance from the spiritual world, maybe with the help of your father he promised to give, in the dream. Before already, in your childhood, you got into contact with the wisdom through the books in the house of your parents, but more so from the realm of the Initiates and Masters of Wisdom. Not having to boast about anything, but you had already resolved before to join into the work, in one way or the other. [Thanks 🙂 I’m grateful for it.]
It is very right that the Hierarchy does not interfere with free will, and that you have to permit them, again and again. The last Lunar Messenger ended with the words:
‘Within the higher octave of love of the Second Ray there is free will and the Masters of Wisdom respect the free will of humanity. They allow as much freedom as each soul wants. They are willing to help, but only when help is asked for. They do not impose their help. Unsolicited help is aggression. Often they say, “We can’t help you even if we want to help because you haven’t ask for our help at the right moment.” When there is a crisis or a calamity, we can drown in our crisis and if we don’t ask for help, no connection is made and the Hierarchy cannot reach us. The Masters are bound by the law of love; this love respects the free will. We may think, ‘What are the Masters doing anyway?’ They have to smile and wait to be asked. So, they wait and wish us well. That is one thing we should deeply ponder about. We can pray from the heart, with the heart.’ [Uff!…Now many things make sense! ]
So you might inwardly ask them about joining with the work at hand developing here, in the context of World Teacher Trust. From my side, I am sure that we will find a way to include you in the work, though as per your skills (information technology) it might need a little time. I would feel honoured if we can build / strengthen the bridge of light with you / this way with Colombia. [And it will be a honour for me to collaborate in build that bridge.]
In case, would you allow me to mention what you wrote? [Yes, absolutely, feel free because in my lines there are no details of these people or places, so it is safe to share.]”
I recently had an exchange with a seeker from the West about various questions relating to the wisdom teachings as given by the World Teacher Trust. – The photos are from morning walks through our neighbourhood and not related to the content.
On one of the first e-mails the lady replied: “Again, many thanks for this, especially to Master Kumar. Maybe there will be an opportunity for me to participate at a meeting with him…”
I answered: “Master Kumar will not travel to the West anymore. In February 2020, Master Kumar became very weak. On April 14, 2020, he was hospitalised with cancer and lost consciousness for 5 days. During this time his wife died. He came back again because his work is not finished yet. After the first chemo, he just let himself be treated with homeopathy for a while, but then a second chemo became necessary…”
She: “I was very much occupied by the reference to the illness of Master Kumar and I asked myself how it can come to such a disbalance in the physical body of a master? Maybe it is a naive thought, but that a person with this spiritual background and the connection to Master CVV falls victim to such an aggressive disease, I would not have suspected and this gives me some puzzles. Was there any explanation on the part of the WTT or maybe even from Master Kumar? Were or are under these circumstances fundamental assumptions of the theoretical frame of reference of the spiritual background of the WTT again put to the test? Could it be purely theoretically that not all basic assumptions contained in the publications and recommendations derived from them are doubtlessly, correct? I ask for your indulgence, but I would be grateful to learn how this -for Master Kumar unfortunately very sad circumstance- is dealt with in the community.”
Me: “There are often things where we run into the void with our (mental) urge for the ‘why and how something is so’. We also cannot see from our limited view why something is chosen where by a Master. Master Kumar often told how the great Masters Ramakrishna Paramahamsa (Wikipedia: ‘On August 16, 1886 Ramakrishna died of throat cancer in the circle of his disciples.’) and Ramana Maharshi chose to choose a serious disease like cancer. (Wikipedia: ‘In 1949, a cancerous tumour was discovered on his arm. Ramana underwent four operations, but refused to have his arm amputated. When he died on April 14, 1950, he assured those left behind, “That which is me cannot die because it was never born”.’)
I have not attempted to explain Sri Kumar’s illness, nor do I know of any such attempt. However, I am very impressed with the way he deals with it. … For me, due to the illness, the teachings of the WTT are not at all ‘on the test bench’, on the contrary, he shows, as he teaches, that we all use the body as a vehicle, which we will also replace again like a car that has become unusable, in order to get a better model. I have studied his teachings intensively, but I do not see that even in purely theoretical terms a revision of basic assumptions would result from the present situation. It is very stringent to me. I have, over the years, gone through enough doubts and also chasms, where I had often also received great support through him. I also think there is not ‘one’ way the community deals with the situation, but everyone has their own approach. (I sometimes said it seems to me that there are as many WTTs as there are people in it – because the understanding is in each case that of the person).
She: “Thank you for your extensive explanations, which show me that there are many more aspects to be considered and that the illness of Master Kumar can be seen from completely different angles. I had left unconsidered in my questions and considerations the fact that the ways of a Master can be unfathomable and elude our limited horizon. There seems to be in the connections and the interaction between the 7 bodies of a human being still other connections than those discussed so far. Possibly a disbalance with a Master can be balanced differently than it is possible with a ‘normal mortal’. In my opinion, a cancer illness mostly indicates an imbalance and an unresolved problem in the psyche, which has become somatized. Thereby not ‘redeemed’ and ‘repressed’ aggressive impulses often play a supporting role in this kind of illness. The fact that all Masters mentioned by you have left the incarnated life because of exactly this disease, seems to me to be no coincidence…… Life on earth is complex and the backgrounds and connections are multilayered and often difficult or even impossible to understand. It is important that Master Kumar is in harmony with himself and it is nevertheless so far well for him. I am very grateful to the WTT that the spiritual teachings have been made accessible to everyone and I thank them again expressly.”
Me: “Yes, there may be other possibilities for the influence of a Master. However, unlike what average people do or would like to do, they do not use their knowledge and abilities for themselves. They allow what happens to them to happen. Often initiates have explained that this is a way they neutralize any remaining physical karma by remaining neutral to it. Whether that is cancer or some other disease, whether it is an accident or even, as often happened, for example with Buddha, a poisoning by a follower, or even, as in the most famous example of Jesus Christ, a crucifixion. An average person would certainly have quickly found ways to escape this.
The Master is also not concerned with ‘being in harmony with himself’, but with the divine – whether he, as a personality, is doing well, is of no importance to him. In a small booklet about H.B. Blavatsky I once wrote: ‘In spite of great bodily pains, she continued the work on the “Secret Doctrine”. By the end of 1886, her state of health was so critical that she was temporarily in a coma and made a will on the insistence of her friends. However, the “Secret Doctrine” was not yet finished, but after one night where she was near her end and the doctors had already given her up, to the great surprise of her friends, she sat up in her bed with wakeful eyes and said: “Master was here, he gave me the alternative either to die and to be free or to live and finish the ‘Secret Doctrine’. He warned me of further great pains and torments, if I would choose to live. But when I thought of all those serious students, who are waiting for help from me, and of the storm-shaken society, for whom the ‘Secret Doctrine’ could be an anchor…” Then she asked for coffee and her tobacco tin…’ Several times, I have also observed this attitude with Master Kumar.”
Taurus is the first earthy sign of the zodiac. It belongs to the fixed cross and provides form and stability. Venus rules over Taurus and gives beauty to the form. Subtle forces radiate through a beautiful form bestowing splendour on it. This splendour is an expression of the subtle beings of light. At Taurus full moon the light descends in a great measure. Since ancient-most times, the Masters of Wisdom and their disciples assemble at the time of this full moon in the Vaisakh Valley of the Himalayas to receive a fresh impulse of energies of Will and to distribute them on the earth.
The symbolism of Taurus is visualised in the twelve Taurus paintings done between 2010 and 2021. For detailed detailed descriptions please see the ludgerphilips.org website.

Taurus – Apollo and the Seven Centres above the Neck 24 January 2021, pencils and photo work
Beauty expresses itself through many and various forms – a work of art, a beautiful flower. Beauty shines through the form. On the subtle planes the limitations of the material form fall away and beauty shines more radiantly. Beauty in the form is governed by Venus, ruler of Taurus. In our body, Taurus rules the lower part of the head and the neck. There are seven etheric centres above the neck related on the solar level with the seven stars of the Pleiades. They are also called the seven mothers who nourish the disciple after his spiritual birth with glandular secretions in this region in the body.
In the centre of the image, you see Apollo, the solar God, holding his seven-stringed lyre, symbol of the seven planes of creation. He is surrounded by flowers expressing divine beauty. From below, a serpent is lifting up its head. Apollo is raising the currents of the Kundalini energy to flow upwards and reach the Ajna centre. There, you see the shining star of the awakened centre.
Above the neck, there are seven stars linked to the seven stars of Pleiades. On the left side, in the vastness of the night-blue sky, you see a golden globe surrounded by a sphere of light and flowers. I created it with the help of a photo of Venus, from Nasa. For the figure of Apollo and for the flower meadow I worked on photos of friends.
The symbolism of Taurus is visualised in the twelve Taurus paintings done between 2010 and 2021. For detailed detailed descriptions please see the ludgerphilips.org website.
The exchange with the new friend from the Pacific coast of South America which started Mid-January went on for a time in an intense dialogue. This was partly with insertions in previous e-mails, partly with personal aspects that I will omit here. Here are some extracts, my comments partly being from insertions into what she had written before.
And again the first two photos are from South America – the following pictures are from the spring equinox meeting at the Paracelsus Center near Einsiedeln, Switzerland.
She: “I have seen the part you wrote about meditations and morning and evening prayer, but I would like to include all this in my days like something regular and not just a random day like I did before…”
Me: “This is very important and the basis for all progress. Only when you have reached a certain stability, you can slowly grow in becoming useful for the Plan.”
She: “I know what I’m trying to do or what I have read is not even the 1% of what I need to know and practice but like you said, ‘It’s something that grows with the time’…”
Me: “Yes, Master Morya says, ‘Make haste slowly’. The basis of all the activity is the alignment with the energies which we connect with morning and evening prayer / meditation. In case you are interested to know more, let me know.”
She: “I’m interested indeed…. I tried to collaborate with xx and yy last year but they didn’t admit me because ….”
Me: “When some doors do not open, something else is waiting for you. As per orientation and spiritual path, feel free to ask any questions you would like to. I will respond to what you are seeking, and little to what I think.”
She: “These days I’m trying to put order in my life… doing some exercise every day, reading spiritual books every day, going to bed at the same time, trying to respect my time and paying attention to my thoughts… This sounds like a few words but it takes a lot of effort because matter is very dense and has a lot of inertia.”
Me: “You are absolutely right, it is described as ‘hammering the rock’ of our personality – to carve out the beautiful form of the vehicle of the soul. It takes time. And most important is to have an attitude of seeing where one can be of help for the surroundings. This is the basis of any spiritual work, building up a rhythm and following, without ‘feeling’ that ‘I have to follow it’ – just doing it naturally.”
She: “My parents baptized me as catholic but my father always mentioned as a saying ‘The high enlightened beings exist in other planes’ so even if my parents hid their books I always found them so I have read spiritual books since I was 13…”
Me: “You have incarnated at a worthy place! I also was brought up in a very catholic family in Northern Germany, feeling in my youth that I did not find satisfying explanations for life and my spiritual search there.”
She: “Even if I have studied some spiritual fields I just took it as theory but without practice. … Since the last year I have been feeling the sensation of doing the combination of reading and experiencing the spiritual field, otherwise this incarnation might be a waste of time….”
Me: “Again, a most essential realisation – and when it is a call to practice, it is like an awakening – only things we put into practice become part of us. My spiritual journey started early but it was a ‘long and winding road’. …
As per feeling fulfilled, it will come through the alignment with and dedication to Hierarchy and accepting what life offers as needed commitment. This might be, for you also, a ‘seeming divide’ between spirituality work, a (future?) family, job, friends…. In synthesis, there is no such divide. Master CVV – from where the WTT teachings are inspired – says that “My way is living 200%” – he was a mayor of a South Indian city and a great occultist. For me, reading his biography, by Master KPK, was like a thunderclap. Also the biography of Master EK, the teacher of Master KPK.
If you want to collaborate, please let me know your skills, interests, maybe something about your (spiritual) background. And if it becomes concrete, I would need to know availability, endurance, observing the quality of work.”
She: “Well, to answer I will do a mixture of my professional and spiritual experience. (I know professional experience its not necessary but I will mention it just to explain more about my life)….”
Me: “The professional part is as important as any other part. Spirituality is nothing ‘aside’ of the rest of our life; we need to stand firmly in some activity, which is a means for livelihood and for expressing ourselves into a service to society. This is more a question of attitude than of doing anything big….
Your selection of profession has to do with your energy setup and ‘dharma’ / duty. It is very good to continue in this direction as per main professional orientation. Master Kumar became a chartered accountant, and developed a big enterprise on Indian top level performance and reach – while his main focus remained with meditation and wisdom teaching, without neglecting family and social responsibilities. He is a great role model for me and it helped me while in the past I had to balance with family, job and service activities in the spiritual domain. So for the spiritual path it is very good and important to have a firm stand with an activity in the physical – and thus being financially independent. All really hierarchical activities / in tune with the Plan, are free volunteer activities.”
Mid-January I came into contact with a lady from the Pacific coast of South America via the Lunar Messenger. An intense dialogue started with the words: “I have been reading several books from Circle of Good Will and I can tell you that I have found several answers for my questions and I’m trying to pull through in this continuous search…”
We looked up on Google maps where we are living and exchanged some photos of how it looks like where we are living – a very interesting trans-oceanic perspective, and quickly we came to deeper exchanges.
The two photos above are from her – the following pictures are from a spring equinox meeting at the Paracelsus Center near Einsiedeln, Switzerland. Though it was the beginning of spring, there was a lot of snow outside. And it was a very small meeting due to pandemic regulations. We were celebrating the equinox meditatively but we also did a small apartment cleaning and a little excursion. So the photos are not related to the content of the ongoing conversation.
I gave some comments into her first e-mails about her activities: “The basis of all this activity is the alignment with the energies which we do with morning and evening prayer / meditation. In case you are interested to know more, let me know. But it is also something growing with the time.” I later asked if I can share it via this blog, and she agreed.
She wrote: “These days I’m trying to put order in my life. I wake up earlier and at the same time even if I don’t have work meetings, doing some exercise every day, reading spiritual books every day, going to bed at the same time, trying to respect my time and paying attention to my thoughts, if they are good it’s ok but if they are bad I reflect about the fact of thinking in that way in order to find a kind of alchemical formula.
This sounds like a few words but it takes a lot of effort because matter is very dense and has a lot of inertia. I’m 36 years old but even if I have studied some spiritual fields I just took it as theory, but without practice. So I have made the same mistakes many times and since the last year I have been feeling the sensation of doing the combination of reading and experience the spiritual field, otherwise this incarnation might be a waste of time.”
She offered to cooperate and I replied: “If you want to collaborate, please let me know your skills, interests, maybe something about your (spiritual) background. And if it becomes concrete, I would need to know availability, endurance, and observe the quality of work.”
She wrote: “Well, to answer I will do a mixture of my professional and spiritual experience (I know professional experience its not necessary but I will mention it just to explain more about my life). My parents baptized me as Catholic but my father always mentioned as a saying, “The high enlightened beings exist in other planes”. So even if my parents hid their books, I always found them. So I have read spiritual books since I was 13. The first book I read was ‘The Kybalion‘ and in that time started all my interest about spiritual laws and all related. Some topics are: Kabbalah & Tarot; Runes; Occidental Astrology (I haven’t had the opportunity to learn Vedic astrology until now); angeology; Mayas; IFA theology & 256 Odduns (more) (from Africa); Gnosis. I studied Engineering and a Master Degree in Engineering.”
I commented: “Excellent training for clarity of mind and practical application.” She gave more details… and wrote: “I like what I do but it doesn’t fulfil my heart because there is always a kind of emptiness that perhaps must be fulfilled by what I am and not by what I do.” The dialogue went on…
I replied about collaboration: “Spiritual Hierarchy is always in search of reliable, devoted, and focused collaborators – and we are always being tested in this regard – like a boss in an enterprise does 😅 at least I sometimes imagine it like this…. If you feel deeper liked to this path ….”.
A day before spring equinox in the northern hemisphere, a radiant morning sun shed its light through the narrow opening between houses into my study and meditation room. The azalea in the flower pot started to shine and also the St.-Germain picture in the background.
On the balcony, the OM sparkled in the shrub, while in the background the morning sun drew contours on the snow-covered mountains.
An Easter egg beamed on the bush in the garden next to the kindergarten around the corner.
And beyond the field path, a shrub was raising its pink blossoms against the dark blue morning sky.
Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and from the standpoint of light it is celebrated as the true beginning of the year. It is the sign of the birth of a new idea, which starts unfolding its activity. Each time a planet enters into Aries, a cycle is completed and a new one begins.
Aries is the highest point of enlightenment and at spring equinox the sun is also at the highest point at the equator. In our body, Aries is in the upper part of our head, it is the radiant light of the head centre. In the Vedas Aries is also worshipped as the head of the cosmic person called Purusha.
The symbolism of Aries is visualised in the twelve Aries paintings done between 2010 and 2020. For detailed detailed descriptions please see the ludgerphilips.org website.
