Evolution
ALICE A. BAILEY: Rays and The Initiations, page
265: “The initiate then goes on to learn the significance of unity in its true sense; this is only possible when monadic influence can be consciously registered and when the antahkarana is in process of conscious construction. I emphasise the word “conscious” here; much of the work of fusion and of attainment proceeds unconsciously under the fundamental Law of Evolution, which is a Shamballic law, embodying as it does the working out of the inscrutable will of Deity.”
587: “Each of these great energising Lives [the three Buddhas of Activity] works through certain Masters and Initiates of the sixth initiation; these Masters work in full consciousness upon the atmic plane, the plane of the spiritual will; from that high level, They function as transmitting agents for the energy of one of the three Buddhas of Activity. These three Buddhas are the creative Agents of the planetary Logos and are Wielders of the Law of Evolution.”
ALICE A. BAILEY: The Externalisation of the Hierarchy, page
109: “These four stages of the Law of Cause and Effect (as it affects humanity at this time) might be called:
- The perfectingof form expression – Law of Evolution
- The precipitationof karma- Law of Cause and Effect
- The achievement of personality – Law of Polar Opposites
(The Dweller on the Threshold)
- The attainment of planetaryinitiation Law of Initiation”
166: “The stupendous Lives—outside manifested existence—entered into manifestation in order to give Themselves for the lesser lives and forms of existence in order that these lesser lives might be enabled to proceed onward towards a goal which is known to Deity alone, and thus eventually reach high places of spiritual expression. Achievement is ever followed by sacrifice and the giving of the greater for the lesser. This is an aspect of the Law of Evolution. Such is the note and theme of the entire creative process and is the basic meaning of the phrase, “God is Love,” for love signifies giving and sacrifice, at least in this solar system.”
ALICE A. BAILEY: The Reappearance of the Christ, page
115: “Christ Will Teach the Law of Rebirth. This Law is the major corollary of the Law of Evolution. It has never been grasped or properly understood in the West and, in the East, where it is acknowledged as a governing principle of life, it has not proved useful because it has been soporific in its effect, and a detriment to progress.”
ALICE A. BAILEY: White Magic, page
544: “We have therefore three Principles:
- The Principle of Limitation.
- The Principle of Periodic Manifestation.
- The Principle of Expansion.
These three principles together constitute the factors underlying the Law of Evolution as men call it.”
ALICE A. BAILEY: Esoteric Healing, page
659: “Law IX … This law is in reality a definition of the Law of Evolution, but given from the spiritual angle. The Law of Evolution – as commonly understood – concerns the evolution of the form aspect as it is gradually fitted to be an exponent or an expression of soul energy, and later of monadic energy.
This law, which might be termed the Law of Perfection, deals with the interior energies which are responsible for the working of the Law of Evolution. It is the higher aspect or the determining cause of the lower; the laws subsidiary to the Law of Perfection are loosely called (by the neophyte the spiritual laws, but of these he knows little and unifies them all in his mind under the general idea that they are an expression of the love aspect of Deity.”
ALICE A. BAILEY: Discipleship in the New Age II, page
211: “5. The Hierarchy of Masters, the Masters of the Wisdom and the Lords of Compassion. This group, which stands midway between Shamballa and Humanity, is subject to impression from Shamballa, via the Nirmanakayas, and its Members are Themselves the agents for the impression of Humanity. They embody and express the love aspect of the divine purpose; They wield, direct and control the Law of Attraction – the motivating energy which swings the Law of Evolution into activity in the three worlds.”
ALICE A. BAILEY: Telepathy, page
62 – 63: “The Science of Impression might be regarded, in the last analysis, as the fundamental science of consciousness itself, for the result of contact and impact leads to the awakening and the unfoldment of consciousness and of that growing awareness which distinguishes every form throughout the manifested world. Every form has its own area of awareness, and evolution is the process whereby forms respond to contact, react to impact, and pass on to greater development, usefulness and effectiveness. The Law of Evolution and the Science of Impression cover the unfoldment of consciousness and bring about adaptability to the immanent soul.”
LUCILLE CEDERCRANS: Applied Wisdom
Introduction, page 8: “The Law of Evolution. This is the Divine Law governing all creation, meaning that all consciousness is evolving upward, that all is progress. God created Souls who are as children growing under the Law of Evolution to adult‑hood. The physical plane is but a school for this great cycle of evolving creation.”
Orientation, page 727: “World conditions such as war, poverty, famine, disease, etc., can only be eliminated as the state of consciousness responsible for them is enlightened by the Soul, and seeks to eliminate them within itself rather than without. We cannot blame one group, or one individual, for any one of these existing conditions. The dictator cannot be the cause of his dictatorship. He is, after all, only responding to the will of the masses over whom he dictates. To rid the masses of one dictator will only bring on another one, until the mass itself wills some other form of government.
This, my brothers, is one of the basic laws of the evolution of consciousness. The over‑all state of consciousness builds its own forms of expression, its own world of effects.”
