Ashramic Growth

LUCILLE CEDERCRANS: Ashramic Projections, Chapter 4, page
52: “This dependence upon the growth and development of those karmically related to you, service-wise, is one of the basic laws of ashramic growth. For instance, a Master cannot take initiation himself (and you realize of course that the path of initiation does not end with mas-ters) until he has achieved for his Ashramic Group Life the goal of spiritual growth and devel-opment. Thus, while your growth and development as an individual proceeds on an individual basis until you pierce the periphery of an Ashram, it is nonetheless forsaken (sacrificed) the moment you pierce that periphery and enter into your particular service activity, so that your individual growth and development is dependent upon the growth with which you are related in service. …
Those whom you have attracted to you as students, those whom you have attracted to you because you are able to be of service to them: Your growth and development is de¬pendent up-on their growth and development.”
