This becomes the stripping of the individual of his Christ-identity, of what he has developed of individual genius, before that Christ-identity is complete. It is stripping the nations of their individual identity, their group karma and their group dharma. It is forcing a community of the Holy Spirit, first as the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and then forcing the entire world to come into this community of World Communism before the individuals of that world have attained to the Christ consciousness. Skipping the step of initiation, it becomes the total perversion of the Holy Spirit. | This becomes the stripping of the individual of his Christ-identity, of what he has developed of individual genius, before that Christ-identity is complete.

The only difference between socialism or communism and a true community of the Holy Spirit is whether or not the Matter bowl is infused with Spirit. Socialism and communism are an attempt to create a Matter society and a Matter golden age without Spirit, whereas only by the path of chelaship and discipleship under the Lord Christ can we truly achieve a community of the Holy Spirit. | The only difference between socialism or communism and a true community of the Holy Spirit is whether or not the Matter bowl is infused with Spirit.
