Up to now, the so-called esoteric schools have dealt with aspirants on the Path of Probation or Purification.  The schools now forming, such as the Arcane School, are concerned with training disciples and preparing them to tread the Path of Discipleship.   What is the Path of Discipleship?  What is a true esoteric school?  Is the Arcane School an esoteric school?  Who founded it and what kind of training does it provide?  Does an esoteric school have a specific relevance in today’s world?

Today is a climaxing time of change.  Humanity is passing through an extremely difficult transition period in which old forms are dying out and new ones are coming to life, with all the accompanying pain, chaos and disruption.  Always in such times a great Teacher comes forth.

"One of the things which the developed intuition can do is to break the glamour and illusion which invade the life. One of the things that a group of aspirants, whose intuitional interplay is established, can accomplish, is to aid in the work of smashing world glamour. Such work can be done when you have awakened the intuition, and when your inter-related understanding is firm and true. The Hierarchy will be able to use the world aspirants as an instrument for the breaking of group glamour wherever it may be found. I refer to this possibility in order to incite you all to more rapid and steady growth and effort."  GLAMOUR: A WORLD PROBLEM by Alice Bailey.

The live broadcast from New York City of this year's Wesak Festival Meeting comes available to you as a special opportunity for those who cannot attend the meeting to link up with the group. For those who do not have Internet access, you may call in to listen and participate in the group meditation via a regular phone line or a mobile phone at the scheduled time at this dial-in number 347-945-6174.

"At the time of this Wesak Festival, I would call your attention to the fact that the annual return of the Buddha to bless His people everywhere and to convey the message of wisdom, light and love to humanity—coming as He does from the very Heart of Deity Itself—is the outer evidence and guarantee of inner divine guidance and revelation in this present world cycle of 2500 years. Year by year He returns. For a brief minute He reminds us that God exists and ever loves; that He is not unmindful of His people; that the heart of the universe is unalterable compassion, and that man is not alone. To bring this recognition about and to make this appearance possible, a living Triangle of Energy is created and focussed through three great spiritual Individuals, Who evoke recognition both in the East and in the West." (EXTERNALISATION OF THE HIERARCHY by Alice Bailey)

The Festival of Wesak. This is the festival of the Buddha, the spiritual Intermediary between the highest spiritual centre, Shamballa, and the Hierarchy. The Buddha is the Expression of the Wisdom of God, the Embodiment of Light, and the Indicator of the divine Purpose. This will be fixed annually in relation to the Full Moon of May, as is at present the case. It is the great Eastern festival.  The next few months are intended to be (for all disciples in all Ashrams) a period of preparation for fuller service. No cost is too great to pay in order to be of use to the Hierarchy at the time of the Full Moon of May, the Wesak Festival; no price is too high in order to gain the spiritual illumination which can be possible, particularly at that time. EXTERNALISATION OF THE HIERARCHY by Alice Bailey

"For the remaining years of life, there should be an increasingly strong relationship between the soul and its vehicles, leading to another crisis between the fifty-sixth or the sixty-third years.  According to that crisis will depend the future usefulness of the person and whether the ego continues to use the vehicles on into old age, or whether there is a gradual withdrawal of the indwelling entity."  ESOTERIC PSYCHOLOGY VOL. II by Alice Bailey.

"In your hours of loneliness, and when you realise that life for you is mainly a waiting process, you are apt to forget these two facts which I have brought to your attention. Fight not against disability or against what the world calls "old age." This is a thing you are very apt to do, and it is a normal reaction. Why not welcome Transition? Learn to glory in experience, which is the gift of wise old age, and look forward to the Great Adventure which confronts you. You know well—in your highest moments—that that Transition means realisation without any physical plane limitations."  DISCIPLESHIP IN THE NEW AGE by Alice Bailey.

"So you see, my brother, your life is rich and full and free and promises to be even more so. Your need is to acquiesce in the limitations of the physical body, which need not necessarily increase until old age is upon you, and at the same time to refuse recognition of that body so that it in no way impinges upon your consciousness in such a manner that it curtails or hinders your pledged service."  DISCIPLESHIP IN THE NEW AGE VOL. II by Alice Bailey.

You will find that the spiritual year is divided into two periods (symbolic of spirit and matter); the period in which the Sun moves northward and the period when it travels on the southern way. You will find that the month divides itself into two periods likewise, that of the waxing and the waning moon and you will find the future emphasis laid throughout the world upon the Easter Festival, the Festival of the Risen Christ; upon the Wesak Festival, the Festival of the Buddha or of Illumination; and the June Full Moon, the Festival of Unification carried forward by the Christ, the Master of all the Masters and the Teacher alike of angels and of men.
