Shamballa/is: Difference between revisions

Sanat Kumara founded the activities of the [[Great White Brotherhood]] on the planetary level, and their headquarters remain here today. Here the masters train [[messenger]]s to go forth with the teachings of the Christ, adapted to every level of human consciousness. Each year the fruits of all endeavors made by [[angel]]s, [[elemental]]s and representatives of the Brotherhood in the world of form are returned to Shamballa in the Fall and are brought to the feet of the [[Lord of the World]]. The angels come on [[Archangel Michael|Saint Michael]]’s day, September 29th. The elementals come at the end of October and representatives of the Brotherhood at the end of November, when in America the feast of gratitude is celebrated at Thanksgiving.

In the legends of the East, Shamballa is the name of a mythical kingdom, an earthly paradise, said to exist somewhere between the Himalayas and the Gobi desert. Ancient Tibetan texts describe the kingdom as a beautiful place in an inaccessible part of Asia, formed of eight regions, each surrounded by a ring of snow-capped mountains and therefore looking like an eight-petaled blossom. It is an idyllic country free of strife and crime, whose inhabitants have attained great spiritual development and powers.
