I haven't found a text of knowledge-bearing messenger yet.
I read a few large files, 752 go...


	Seals like ours.

The Manchu Emperor also tried to buy the allegiance of certain Tibetan princes, 
chieftains and lamas by giving many of them seals of office. But the Tibetans 
regarded the seals as a compliment and did not acknowledge them as a mark of 
vassalage.

	ATD p 700's time & place:

As the Russian power in Asia was growing, the British Government felt that their 
interest was at stake. Tibet was invaded by a British expeditionary force under 
Colonel Younghusband, which entered Lhasa on August 3, 1904.

	Good tarot history, multiple interpretations

Since 1986, the year of its foundation by Andrea Vitali, medievalist and 
iconographer, "Le Tarot" has sponsored a project consisting of the study and 
advancement of subjects which have in the past been wrongly labelled "esoteric".

	Disappearance:

Lepke: A very unique and interesting type of spiritual manifestation, a ghost 
which has the appearance of a solid, living person, may even converse with 
someone, then suddenly vanishes. "We were talking, I turned to face her again, 
and she was just gone! " Such apparitions are most often reported to have been 
encountered within, or immediately outside of cemeteries.

  A Treasury of Terms and Thoughts from the Agni Yoga Teachings



Agni Yoga - Deals with the highest fiery transmutations of all centers which 
cannot be achieved by any mechanical methods but requires the direct controlling 
influence of the Great Teacher.

The essence of Armageddon lies not only in the exhaustion of old causes but also 
in the establishment of new ones.

After crossing the Hindu Kush, Appollonius had been directed by a king to the 
abode of the Sages, ... by whom he was taught unsurpassed knowledge.


	ATD: Dally's hair as a bell:

Bell, The - The Center of Cosmic Foundation.
|
Brahmarandra-chakra, or the Bell, on the top of the head.
|
There is a center in the brain which is called the bell. Like a resonator it 
gathers the symphony of the world, and it can transform the deepest silence into 
a thundering chord. It is said: "He who hath ears, let him hear."
|
Everything heard and seen throughout the Brahma-Randhra deserves especially 
sensitive attention.

People talk much about the tranquility of wise men, but it is really a great 
tension, so great that the surface of the energy becomes mirror-like.

We approach life as to the chalice of a wondrous remedy. To drink the poison of 
the world in order to be reborn with full power! This symbol comes from ancient 
legends. We see it in Egypt, in Greece; Shiva himself recalls it; a whole chain 
of Redeemers bears the chalice of poison, transforming it into Amrita.

Contact, Highest - Each arch has its apex. Disturbing it causes the downfall of 
the entire arch. Similarly there is in life the Highest Contact without which 
life turns into chaos. Is it easy to sense this point of Infinity? Few have 
sensed it, but because of this the manifestation of Infinity has forever 
illumined their consciousness. Great is the concept of the subtlest energies 
that uplift the consciousness.

The cosmic life consists of movements of attraction and repulsion, in other 
words, of rhythmic explosions and accumulations. The activity of Our co-workers 
is not detached from the law of nature. It can be observed how activity stores 
the consciousness and does not fear destruction by an explosion.

A man wishes to bring good to humanity, but instead of the fruits of his labor 
there lies before him an unfathomable abyss. A formidable mind may shudder at 
that, but the tempered, manifested warrior of labor sees before him, not a chasm 
but the radiance of Infinity.

Crossroad, The - Another name for the heart, so-called because it is the focus 
of physical as well as the highest laws. In ancient times it was represented by 
an equilateral cross.

In the Ancient Teachings, the first manifestation out of the Infinite at the 
birth of Cosmos is the Androgyne-a synthesis of the Male and Female Elements, 
or, as they are called in the Sacred Teachings-the Origins.
|
It is the Father-Mother, or Aditi of Hindu Cosmogony and the Sacred Teaching. 
Thus Darkness is Father-Mother; Light is Their Son. Darkness is the eternal womb 
in which the source of Light appears and disappears

Each Lord has his keynote. The Epoch of Maitreya proclaims woman. The 
manifestation of Maitreya is linked with the confirmation of the Mother of the 
World, in the past, present, and future.

Explosions - Among the universal manifestations, incessant explosions have a 
special significance. Likewise in man are there compressions and explosions of 
energy. But why are universal explosions beneficial, whereas the human ones can 
destroy the organism? The difference lies in the fact that universal explosions 
are balanced in a great rhythm, but the human ones often are devoid precisely of 
rhythm.

Fanaticism knows only the egoism which presumptuously says, "All or nothing." 
and since all is impossible, there remains nothing.

        666!

Six hundred times did We speak of the heart; so are We ready to speak six 
hundred and sixty-six times of the significance of Fire, if only to affirm the 
definition of Fire as a triumphal ladder.

Flaming Dome - The concept of Shambhala is actually linked inseparably with 
fiery manifestations. Without the application of purified Fire it is impossible 
to approach the higher concepts. Throughout the entire world people are divided 
into those who are conscious of Shambhala as the Highest Measure and those who 
deny the future. Let the word Shambhala be known to but a few; each has a 
different tongue, but the heart is one. One must manifest solicitous attention 
to each one who is ready to proceed toward Light. The heart must embrace each 
manifestation that reverberates to the Good. But only under the Flaming Dome are 
all equal.

Fohat is the subtlest fiery energy, and if it contacts an unprepared organism it 
may burn and cause tortuous fiery death. I myself saw Fohat with my physical 
eyes, and was full of wonder at the splitting of the sun's rays into millions of 
luminous sparks of Fohat. Afterwards I suffered a slight singeing of the 
centers.
|
You know how difficult it is to see Fohat, how the cumulative effects of many 
years are required for the evidence of this energy. But what will a weak spirit 
say when he learns that beyond Fohat is Para-Fohat, which is nurtured by 
Pan-Fohat. These energies can fill only the strong consciousness with rejoicing 
and with love.

Thus, one should establish nothing by force. It is said, "Though today a man may 
not search for Light, tomorrow he may weep for it."

The fiery sword of the spirit will smite the corruption of the planet. Those who 
are looking into the future are not afraid of the fiery sword, for the tempered 
spirit knows the true creativeness of the sword of the spirit. Fiery 
creativeness can be affirmed as the great transmutation of darkness into Light.

This most unifying Yoga exacts an obligation to construct the entire life in 
conformity with a discipline externally imperceptible.

Guarisankar - A mountain in the Himalayan chain.
|
Shamballa is the indispensible site where the spiritual world unites with the 
material one. As in a magnet there exists the point of utmost attraction, so the 
gates of the spiritual world open into the Mountain Dwelling. The manifested 
height of Guarisankar helps the magnetic current. Jacob's Ladder is the symbol 
of Our Abode.

Surya-Vidya-thus was the Teaching of the Heart sometimes called. In this 
definition was indicated the fieriness, the sunlike quality, the centrality of 
the heart. Verily, anyone who wishes to cognize the heart cannot approach it as 
only a part of the organism. First of all, one should recognize the centrifugal 
aspect of the heart and study outward from it, not inward toward it. The solar 
plexus is the antechamber of the temple of the heart. The Kundalini is the 
laboratory of the heart. The brain and all the centers are the estates of the 
heart, because nothing can exist without the heart.
|
Many will not understand how one can strengthen the heart by thought, because 
for them the heart is but a physical organ. But whoever has felt Our currents 
will understand the meaning of this bond.

Not many realize that the development of the heart means, first of all, the 
broadening of the consciousness. Verily, the heart is the throne of the 
consciousness, but not sentimentality, this surrogate of benevolence.

How differently is the manifestation of heroism commonly understood. One should 
remember that a hero is not always proclaimed by a trumpet blast. Not in 
universal glamour does a hero of the spirit proceed, but in a true draining of 
the chalice of poison. To those who demand more, more is often given, to meet 
their requirement, but earthly gifts are no affirmation of higher gifts. Verily, 
a hero of the spirit proceeds by another path. His burden will be the Burden of 
the World. And how wonderful is the countenance of the hero of the spirit, 
proceeding impetuously onward in silence and in solitude.

Himalayan Lights - The Himalayan Lights have been observed by many scholars, 
none the less, for the ignorant they remain doubtful. The non-searing flame of 
the Himalayas, though people have observed and touched it, likewise remains as 
before within the limits of the fantastic. Each manifestation of light has 
energy in its basis.

As the highest humility and the highest self-renunciation, should one accept the 
Image of Those bearing the full Chalice of self-sacrifice. They carry a heavy 
burden in the heart. They bear the brunt of the tension manifested by humanity. 
They carry the burden of the entire discrepancy. Such humility is redemption. 
Who will give himself wholly to the achievement of drinking the cup of poison? 
Who will take upon himself the Fiery Shield for the good of humanity? Who will 
resolve to accept the fiery energies? Who will manifest the understanding of the 
entire Cosmic tension? Verily, he who is in consonance with the Higher Forces.

But if you ask how to act now, I will say, Let your heart ascend. Imagine your 
heart as if it were within a chalice with an ascending flame.

He who is afflicted with 'imperil' must repeat, "How beautiful is everything!" 
And he will be right; because the flow of evolution is rational, in other words, 
beautiful.

Your heart is the only judge, accumulator and guardian of the acquired precious 
energies. The structure of these acquired and accumulated energies is our 
individuality and destiny.

A steed jumping the precipice cannot be halted.

International Government - The International Government mentioned in the books 
is the Great Hierarchy of Light; and for us Christians, who take our religious 
terminology from the Jews, it is of course Jacob's Ladder, which is mentioned 
precisely in the second book of Leaves of Morya's Garden. And for the East it is 
Great Shambhala, or Shabistan, or Mount Meru. There are other names as well, for 
they vary according to the people and the country.

Invisible World - Those 'invisible' dimensions of existence not, as yet, 
generally perceived by our physical perceptions.
|
If people would ponder upon the truth that only the result is visible to them, 
whereas the process itself is invisible they would grasp the meaning of the 
Invisible.
|
It is not only the visible that exists but the world is filled with invisible 
realities.

"It is evident that you must first of all free yourself from irritation. This 
most prevents you from seeing the path."

	Did P allude...?
	
John, Prester - The name assumed by the Great Spirit Who headed "a mysterious 
Spiritual Abode" in Asia during the 12th and 13th centuries. Several times 
advice and admonishments were received from this Great Personage by the courts 
of the West. Once an envoy was sent to seek Him out but the embassy returned 
unable to find the Great Abode.

Kalachakra - (The wheel of Time, or the wheel of the Law) is the Teaching 
ascribed to the various Lords of Shambala. Traces of this Teaching can be found 
in almost all the philosophical systems and teachings of India. At the present 
time, it is perhaps more known in Tibet. But in reality, this Teaching is the 
Great Revelation brought to humanity at the dawn of its conscious evolution in 
the third race of the fourth cycle of Earth by the Lords of Fire, Sons of 
Reason, who were and are the Lords of Shambhala.

What is revealed in the Kalachakra? Are there any forbiddances? No, the lofty 
teaching sets forth only the constructive.

When you are told that the shortest way is through Shambhala, through 
Kalachakra, it means that achievement is not an unattainable ideal, but that it 
is something which may be attained through sincere and industrious aspiration 
here, upon this very earth and in this very incarnation. This is the Teaching of 
Shambhala.

Kalagiya - The sacred call to Shambhala.

Do not outrage the laws! Await in ardent labor until the messenger of Shambhala 
shall come to you, amid constant achievement. Await until the Mighty-voiced 
shall utter, 'Kalagiya'. Then you may safely proceed to expound this superb 
matter.

Kalagya - The disciple's response to the call: "I come, Lord! Kalagya."

Know - When We say, "Know," We are insisting upon a many-sided survey and 
mastery of possibilities.

Whoever understands the addition of the Chalice to the Kundalini will understand 
how the father transmits the earthly kingdom to the son. The Kundalini is the 
father, the generator of the ascent. The Chalice is the son, awakened by the 
father.

Lords of Fire - The Sons of Reason who were and are the Lords of Shambhala.

Luminous Citadel - Shambhala, the sacred Abode of the Guardians of our planet.

If I advise medicines made from plants for common organisms, then for the more 
knowing ones there is a powerful laboratory of sacred fiery secretions.

	Did P allude...?

Mahatma Letters - These letters, first published in 1923, were written between 
the years 1880 and 1884 to A. P. Sinnett, English Civil Servant in Simla, India 
by two Eastern Mahatmas of Tibet whom H.P. Blavatsky had acknowledged as her
Teachers and the inspirers of her Isis Unveiled and Secret Doctrine.

Meru-the abode of the gods-was placed in the North Pole., while Patala , the 
nether region, was supposed to lie in the South. As Meru is the high abode of 
the Gods, these were said to ascend and descend periodically; by which 
(astronomically) the Zodiacal gods were meant, the passing of the original North 
Pole of the Earth to the South Pole of the heaven.

One should not think that the elemental spirits are Our brood. Their 
manifestation may be likened to the spark at the moment of contact with a tense 
reservoir of dynamite. The consciousness of this spark becomes kindled upon 
contact with the human spirit.

Neti - One may be asked also why the visions coincide with special moments of 
life. Is this the result of a Guidance that is aware of the approach of the 
crucial hour, or is it due to an exalted spiritual attitude which permits one to 
see what otherwise would remain unseen? It is both. But besides our own state of 
consciousness, certain cosmic currents approach which transform the earthly 
layers. Certainly, not only astral chemisms react upon us, but a certain higher 
energy, the origin of which is infinite. Neti, Neti-the Ineffable, guides us, 
and often we are touched by the Highest Power.


	Let me digress to mention a great fulfillment:

Long ago I had a powerful dream, marked by three parts especially: Three
gray angels wearing ear protectors enacted: 1. something like sandblasting
a wall; 2. causing me to walk behind a protective railing; 3. delivering a
trailer which could only be characterized as one great rod of iron. I saw
these three things take place yesterday exactly: 1. In a meeting, watching
a projection on a wall. 2. encountering a lady ascending a staircase, hand
on the railing; (neither of which I recognized until) 3. A truck consisting
of one great boom arrived, and was used to deliver AC units up onto a roof.
It was the very fulfillment that dream. Making me wonder now, What's up?!
|
Again, I'll have to gloss over details of red-jelly-donut communion.
|
I note that a smaller truck parked beyond the truck with the crane made
a pair resembling my dream, which appeared as if a puller and a trailer.
The boom was blue, with a pendant red block. Twice as sexual, when
self-reflexive after they hooked the red block to the front fender.
Two attached straps formed a triangle symbol while lifting loads.
|
I think it culminates my recent tantra, "The 18 wheels of death."
It was 3.5 days until Easter Sunday eve.
She had about as many stairs yet to climb.
Many other visions unmistakably suggest she is a Great Whore, Babylon.
Christ's task is to distinguish His MONOGENES from a son of perdition.
Whereas Agni Yoga acknowledges the co-progenitorship of ISIS / ISHTAR.
I don't know what this may portend for an eschaton this coming Sunday.
|
My old dream ended with me laying on an emerald four-paneled thing like
a Monopoly board, to get information (I figured Emerald Tablet) which a
servant took away through a doorway, comparable to these two days spent
vetting the Agni Yoga web page in WordsEx.


        Counterpoint!

Prophetic ecstacy avoids exactness of time and place, but the knowledge of the 
spirit foresees the quality of an event. And the way of this straight-knowledge 
comes into bloom without visible signs, but it is based upon the opening of the 
nerve centers.


        Back to work...

Let us not take the jumbled figures of the bazaar for the laws of the Universe.

Paracelsus spent a certain period of time in one of the Ashrams of the 
Trans-Himalayan Stronghold, obtaining great knowledge.

The flaming Pentagram is the shield in time of battle. In the midst of special 
tension man represents such a Pentagram-the larynx burns as if aflame, the 
extremities of hands and feet are ablaze; thereby, like an unconquerable shield 
he rises, protecting the manifested works.

Matter is a condition of the spirit. But blood differs so greatly from its 
equivalent in the spirit, which is nurtured by prana, that the boundaries are 
broken throughout all the Worlds The spirit, nurtured by prana, does not 
assimilate blood.

Prana is purified by the highest Fire, and only this quality makes it creative. 
Yet even in the plains, even in the city squares, before expressing a decision, 
try to inhale as deeply as possible. In this inhalation perhaps a particle of 
the prana of Benefaction will reach you through all barriers.
|
In an hour of consternation one must know how to evoke even a momentary calm. 
Such calmness and but one breath of prana will provide a strong shield.

The Hatha Yogis are interested in the control of the vital breath of the lungs, 
whereas the ancient Raja Yogis understood it as mental breathing, for only the 
control of this mental breath brings a high state of clairvoyance and the 
restoration of the functioning of the third eye, together with all the real 
achievements of the Raja Yogi.

Repentance - The word repentance does not exist in the Senzar dictionary. It is 
replaced by an expression familiar to you-intelligent cooperation.

Rigden - (Tib.). A part of the title of the Lord of Shambhala.
|
One should gather all unwaveringness of the heart in order to find oneself in 
the ranks of Rigden.

	ATD?

In 1923, Professor and Madame Roerich, with their two highly gifted young sons, 
left for Europe, where they had to equip an expedition to proceed through the 
heart of Asia. For five years the expedition travelled, covering India, Tibet, 
Little Tibet, Sikkim, Mongolia, Chinese Turkestan, Altai, etc.
|
After their return in 1929 from the Central Asiatic Expedition, Professor and 
Madame Roerich chose Naggar in Kulu Valley, India, as their place of residence 
and as the best site for a scientific institution which was founded by them 
under the name of Urusvati Himalayan Research Institute.

	ATD?

Christian Rosenkrenz, the founder of the Order of the Rosicrucians, upon his 
return from Asia was compelled to introduce the teaching of the East in a 
semi-Christian form.

Saddhu - (Sk.). A saintly person, a spiritual teacher. The term is applied at 
the present time to almost every travelling monk and pilgrim in India.

What can one call an Agni Yogi? Certainly an apologist of Truth.

Senzar - The mystic name for the secret sacerdotal language or the 
'mystery-speech' of the initiated Adepts, all over the world.

	ATD?

Sergius of Radonega - Much was given to the Russian people and it deserved its 
name 'God-Seeker'. It gave us such luminaries as Saint Sergius of Radonega, who 
not only laid the Foundation for the Russian State, but who really molded the 
whole character of the people.

Shambhala - (Sk.). A very mysterious locality on account of its future 
associations. A town or village mentioned in the Puranas, whence, it is 
prophesied, the Kalki Avatar (Maitreya) will appear. Some Orientalists make 
modern Muradabad in Rohilkhand (N.W.P.) identical with Shambhala, while 
Occultism places it in the Himalayas.
|
Shambhala is the indispensable site where the spiritual world unites with the 
material one. As in a magnet there exists the point of utmost attraction, so the 
gates of the spiritual world open into the Mountain Dwelling. The manifested 
height of Guarisankar helps the magnetic current. Jacob's Ladder is the symbol 
of Our Abode.
|
What are the signs of the time of Shambhala? The signs of the age of truth and 
cooperation.
|
Those who work with Shambhala, the initiates and messengers of Shambhala, do not 
sit in seclusion-they travel everywhere. Very often people do not recognize them 
and sometimes they do not even recognize each other. But they perform their 
works, not for themselves, but for the great Shambhala; and all of them know the 
great symbol of anonymity. They sometimes seem wealthy, yet they are without 
possessions. Everything is for them, but they take nothing for themselves. Thus, 
when you dedicate yourselves to Shambhala, everything is taken and everything is 
given to you. If you have regrets, you yourself become the loser; if you give 
joyously, you are enriched. Essentially, the Teaching of Shambhala lies in 
this-that we do not speak of something distant and secreted. Therefore, if you 
know that Shambhala is here on earth; if you know that everything may be 
achieved here on earth, then everything must be rewarded here on earth. You have 
heard that the reward of Shambhala is verily here and that it is manifold in its 
returns. This is not because the Teaching of Shambhala is unique from others, 
but because the Teaching of Shambhala is vital, is given for earthly 
incarnations and can be applied under all human conditions. In what way can we 
study how to work? How to be ready for all manner of attainments; how to be open 
and all-accepting? Only in the practical study of Shambhala.
|
S - Lords of - The International Government mentioned in the books is the Great 
Hierarchy of Light; and for us Christians, who take our religious terminology 
from the Jews, it is of course Jacob's Ladder, which is mentioned precisely in 
the second book of Leaves of Morya's Garden.

        CONTRAST!

Star of the Morning - The Star of the Morning is the sign of the Great Epoch 
which will flash as the first ray from the Teaching of Christ.

Star of the Mother of the World - The Star of the Mother of the World is the 
planet Venus.

Stone, The - There are well known legends and sagas about the wandering 
stone-lapis exilis...
|
The stone is also mentioned in mediaeval scientific and historical chronicles. 
On the Himalayas, in Tibet, and Mongolia one constantly comes across references 
to this miracle.

The crystal of Materia Lucida can be shown only rarely in such magnitude as has 
been visible to you. For this, there is needed a special converging of magnetic 
currents. The crystal appears, as it were, to be attracted by the Stone.

Not education, not experience, not talent, but precisely the fire of 
straight-knowledge opens the direct path to Shambhala.

Stronghold - Another name for the Himalayan Headquarters of the White 
Brotherhood.

Travelers may knock for admittance. Travelers could tell about the Great Souls 
who dwell in unfailing service beyond the far-off deserts, beyond the mountains, 
beyond the snows.
Travelers will not tell whether they have been in the Abode. Travelers will not 
utter the word Brotherhood, yet each listener will comprehend what Center of 
Knowledge is spoken about. The Sowers of Good go about the world when humanity 
is atremble.
People wish to hear about the Stronghold, the Citadel. If they will not learn 
about the statutes, they will nevertheless grow stronger at the mere message 
that the Stronghold of Knowledge does exist.
|
If a victory is to take place, it is necessary to realize all the importance of 
the Stronghold.
see also Stronghold of Light, Shambhala
|
Stronghold of Light - True service to the General Good, which leads to the gates 
of the Stronghold of Light, requires sacrifice and complete disdain for 
everything personal, in other words, the complete abandonment of selfhood.
|
I must say that I have not yet met anybody who, after learning something about 
the great White Brotherhood, has not attempted the search for it. But rarely, 
almost never, does one question himself as to whether he is ready spiritually 
and physically to endure that tension. Can his physical shell stand the awful 
tension of the atmosphere that surrounds this Stronghold? Only he can approach 
it who, here on Earth amidst the struggles and surmounting all possible 
difficulties, has outlived all habits and attachments and in self-sacrificing 
achievement has fierily transmuted his energies. Without going through the 
earthly purgatory it is impossible to enter Paradise. The Fires of the Higher 
Energies would burn the overloaded aura. Therefore, only one or, at most, two 
people in a century ever reach this Stronghold. You also know that the Great 
Teachers never invade the karma of man, and therefore they make no exceptions. 
Karma can bring a man into Their Community, and if such karma is present, no one 
and nothing, except the man himself, can impede its fulfillment.
|
You may point out to the true seekers that the Stronghold of the Great Knowledge 
has existed since the remotest days and guards tirelessly the evolution of 
humanity, observing and directing the currents of the world's events into a 
salutary channel. All the Great Teachers are connected with this Abode. All of 
Them are its members. Manifold are the activities of this Stronghold of 
Knowledge and Light. The history of all times and peoples has witnessed this 
Help, which was never promulgated but which for each country is always given at 
the turning point in its history. The acceptance or refusal was invariably 
followed by either the flowering or the downfall of the country.

Each advanced stupidity is especially dangerous in playing with explosives.

The bazaar-colored emotions of earth-dwellers bear little resemblance to love. 
Love often remains unrealized. But in the Subtle World love is the key to all 
locks. For many people imagination is an unattainable abstraction, but in the 
Subtle World each grain of accumulation of imagination is a particle of the path 
of possibilities. For earth-dwellers offense, bitterness and vengeance 
constitute the basis of the bile and liver; but for the Subtle World, even in an 
average consciousness, these infamies fall away as useless husks.

Tower(s), The - Symbolizes the Great Abode-the Stronghold of the Brotherhood.
|
Only the attraction of Our Towers affirms victory.

	Viagra? Big difference.

Vairaga - Vairaga is the very sacred flame of renunciation of corporeal things.

	ATD time frame.

Vivekananda - I am very happy that you appreciate the works of Vivekananda and 
Ramakrishna. Their books were and are our greatest friends. Unfortunately, both 
these great spirits have already left us. Vivekananda died in 1901 and 
Ramakrishna before that.

Well - The crown of the head is termed the well, because the waves of alien 
influences penetrate by this way. Everywhere in antiquity we see the covering of 
the head connected with the symbol of the priest.
