From around the world, we are hearing calls for freedom
…the spark of life seeking release
β¦Give freedom to the spirit; do not bind it with human limitations. It will soar by itself and return triumphant; thus man becomes attuned to the Supermundane Worldβ¦ No special incantations are needed; the spirit striving to its Motherland, attracted by the Great Magnet, is enough.
ββ¦ freedom of spirit is the gate into the Supermundane World. Oneβs entire earthly life can be transformed through the manifestation of free willβ¦β Supermundane: from Sloka 749, 778
…we realise that we are part of a greater life
How clearly this is playing out in so many situations around the world β from personal struggles to political divides, territorial disagreement, and exploitation of the vulnerable. At the same time, and on a rising trajectory, we are seeing the universal freedom of the greater life expressing creatively through global coordination by humanitarian agencies, a growing unity of nations, the movement to address climate change and restore the health of the planet, collaboration in scientific discoveries, and the compassion of individuals as they open their homes to refugees and donate to help those in desperate need.
the life-force of our world is being realised through human consciousness and expressed through the human heart.
β¦It should be remembered that freedom requires a high discipline, and those who manifest disorder and confusion cannot be regarded as freeβ¦β Supermundane: from Sloka 832
…when we act in concert with divine will, we experience joy
Urusvati knows how to bring joy. This quality is contained in the disciplined will. The realization of joy grows through conviction, not through the acquisition of things. There is no condition that cannot be turned into joy. When We speak repeatedly about joy We evoke it as a great reality. One cannot imagine Our Abode without joy. The most tense battles are filled with joy. Without it there is no action. To elucidate the meaning and value of joy is to resolve a great physiological principle.
β¦It should be understood that We wish to explain joy as something creative and inspired. Joy is a reliable magnet. We want people to know where their panacea is. They can conduct a better and higher communion in joy. They will find a firm co-worker in joy. They will wish that the world might live in joy. β¦ Let people remember that no one can deprive them of their joy. β¦For Us it is a festival when We see that Our co-workers have understood the shield of joy.β Supermundane, Sloka 55
The joy of freedom is experienced when as free spirits we no longer feel contained by our form of embodiment
Radiation is the outer effect produced by all forms in all kingdoms when their internal activity has reached such a stage of vibratory activity that the confining walls of the form no longer form a prison, but permit of the escape of the subjective essence.
β¦[This is] the effect produced by the inner essence as it makes its presence felt through the form, when the form has been brought to a stage of such refinement that it becomes possibleβ¦
[It] comes about when the internal, self-sufficient life of any atom is offset by a stronger urge, or pull, emanating from the enveloping greater existence of whose body it may form a part.
β¦ the essential life of any atom, its highest positive aspect, is ever of the same nature as that of the greater life which is drawing it to itself.
β¦The liberated essences become conductors of the greater force which is their magnetic centre, because they are responsive to itβ¦ A treatise on Cosmic Fire, from page 1060 onwards
