WHAT IS AN ASCENDED MASTER, ANYWAY?

The Source for this information is an Ascended Master Himself, That One Who is known as Djwhal Khul, The Tibetan. He had a great deal to say about The Initiates and Masters of The Spiritual Hierarchy through his amanuensis, Alice A. Bailey, from 1919 to 1949. Many of these Masters will be walking The Earth in the early portion of The New Age in Aquarius, will be founding Mystery Schools and Ashrams, and will be preparing the way for the appearance of the next Avatar of The Christ Consciousness. They want to be more widely known to Humanity now, and I thought it might be helpful to offer a little elucidation about Those Who are called Ascended Masters of The Wisdom.An Ascended Master is One Who has taken The 5th Initiation, called The Ascension or Resurrection. In this evolutionary scheme Sanat Kumara (Head of The Hierarchy) has made The Path of Initiation the path of evolutionary progress ever since the middle Atlantean Times. The first 5 Initiations are called The Birth, The Baptism, The Transfiguration, The Renunciation, and The Ascension. An Ascended Master is One Who has attained freedom from The Wheel of Rebirth and need nevermore to experience incarnate physicality. If They choose to interact with Humanity at this level, They create the mayavirupa, the body of illusion, by an act of the will and visualization. They may also project a holographic image for such interaction.The Ascended Masters have all gone through eons of lifetimes on this planet and have all experienced the sorrows and pains and trials and vicissitudes and setbacks that we all have experienced. They have tasted the bitter lash of retribution (karma) for misdeeds. They have undergone all of the difficulties and joys and challenges that earth life has to offer, and They have succeeded in raising Themselves up out of the quagmire through stupendous self-effort and discipline, through meditation and sacrificial service, and through following the instruction of their Master Teachers.The Ascended Masters have all been Initiated by The One Initiator, Sanat Kumara, and have seen the 5-pointed Star flash overhead and have been touched by The Flaming Diamond, The Rod of Initiation of The Lord of The World. They have come before Humanity as the most exemplary and influencial lives The Race has known. They have advanced civilizations and have offered the greatest spiritual teachings the world has known. They are known as The Immortals in The Orient.A Master of The Wisdom is One Who can now work in many of The Departments of The Solar Hierarchy and, having taken The 5th Initiation, is considered an "Entered Apprentice" or 1st Level Initiate of The Hierarchy on Sirius, which is The Higher Self of our Solar Logos. A Master of The Wisdom stands at the threshhold of The 7 Paths of Higher Evolution and is presented with the choice of which Path will be taken for the rest of the journey of return to The Godhead. The bulk of The Ascended Masters choose The Path to Sirius, and The Ones Who choose The Path of Earth Service do so out of love and compassion for The Human Race.There are 63 Ascended Masters associated with the evolution of The Human Kingdom, but there are many others unknown to Humanity Who are associated with the evolutionary progress of the other Kingdoms: Mineral, Plant, Animal, and Deva. They serve The Will of The Planetary Logos, The Higher Self of Sanat Kumara. The name They choose in communicating with Humanity is usually the name of their last lifetime when They took The Ascension Initiation, and that is usually the form that They create for any interaction.There is no personality left anymore in an Ascended Master. They have transcended personality. They have transcended The Higher Self or Soul by The 4th Initiation, and They have merged with Monadic Consciousness (Higher Self of The Higher Self). They might be considered as Gestalts of Consciousness. They have Ashrams of disciples and lower Initiates and are The Heart Flame of their ashramic effort and purpose which is an aspect of The Plan of Sanat Kumara. The work is carried out by mental inspiration of their disciples and Initiates in incarnate form.I hope that this brief introduction leads to a better understanding of The Lofty Benefactors of Humankind and gives inspiration to follow in their brilliantly lighted footsteps.
