Banner of Peace will bring the understanding of this lofty significance. Humanity cannot flourish
without the knowledge of the greatness of culture. The Banner of Peace will open the gates to a
better future. When countries are on the way to destruction, then even those who are spiritually
depleted must understand in what the ascent consists. Verily, salvation lies in culture. Thus, the
Banner of Peace brings a better future.
332. Let people become accustomed to ejecting from their lives a multitude of petty lies and to
learning to apply truth to life. Nothing is as destructive as a consciously injurious distortion of
reality. It disturbs the rhythm of Cosmos. The subterranean fire dominates by the counter-current
of its rhythm.
333. With the cooperation of all energies the preordained structure can be built. It is the same in
human constructiveness. It should be remembered that positive forces create under the pressure of
negative ones, and the creativeness of Light is saturated by the tension of the manifested
pressures. Thus, creativeness in the Name of the Lords certainly calls forth tension. Hence,
precisely Service to Light asserts such a tension of cosmic potencies. When such a mighty
construction is being affirmed, how is it possible that the shifting forces should not be opposed?

334. Verily, the Banner of Peace will unite all cultural tasks and will give the world the
achievement that is so needed. Therefore, those who carry a striving quest will respond to all
affirmations. The nations will verily unite under this Banner.
335. Humanity must carry out a multitude of urgent experiments. Imperil must not only be
recognized as the calamity of the departing race but the contagion of imperil should also be
studied. It will be possible to ascertain that imperil acts at far distances and can affect the subtle
body. Imperil clashes like a dissonance with the Fire of Space. People who depart from Earth
with a store of imperil create for themselves a torturous existence; the Fire of Space rushes upon
them, for harmony means adherence to the foundations. Each opposition to the foundations calls
forth the counteraction of the Fire of Space. Thus, one should admit that personal irritation is an
excrescence of the departing ones. But it must be noted that people often do not wish to heed their
own irritation, though the dangerous poison does not diminish because of that.
336. Thus, one should investigate impeding elements with all means. One must understand in
what consists harmony with the foundations of Existence. In what lies the progress of a spirit who
is gradually becoming accustomed to existing above the world and to labor without end? Also,
the sacred pains should be understood as signs of the flights of the spirit into the region which
binds the worlds. Thus, it is easy to understand that involution has deprived humanity of some
acknowledged qualities, and one should manifest much of the primary energy, in order to weave
again the torn web of Assurgina. But praise to the courageous, daring, and striving ones!
337. The time when the Fire Blossom is manifest cannot be an easy one. The Banner of Peace is
not presented at the bazaar. Thus, let us be united in one unconquerable striving.
338. How does humanity expect to approach the Highest without acknowledging the entrusted
earthly representatives of Hierarchy? How can a link be established if humanity does not admit
the greatness of the Chain of Hierarchy? Thinking is infected so extensively by the poison of
conceit that the entire cosmic balance is disturbed. Thus, on the way to Us one should adopt all
the affirmations concerning Hierarchy as an anchor of salvation. Verily, Hierarchy is like a
wondrous Light for humanity! As a mighty Shield, Hierarchy stands on watch! Hierarchy is
affirmed as the link between the worlds!
339. Therefore the most heinous is apostasy and demeaning of the Teacher. Thus, when We
introduce into life a new affirmation, one should strive with the entire spirit on the path of
fulfillment of the Highest Will. Hence, when We affirm the great significance of the Banner of
Peace, it must be adopted in spirit. Verily, thus the salvation of the world will come. The time is
great! The time is significant!
340. Wisely is ordained the bliss of him who sacrifices his soul for his neighbor. Often this
commandment is applied to the sacrifice of one's life, yet it is not said of life or body, but of the
spirit. Thus a most difficult and lengthy task is given. In order to give one's soul one should
cultivate, expand, and refine it, then it can be given for the salvation of one's neighbor. Thus the
wisdom of the Commandment should be understood and consciously applied. It is also said,
 Follow Me. Thus will speak each Hierarch, affirming a progressive motion. He cannot turn
back, otherwise the leading star will be hidden behind the rock.
It is not correct to think of the humility of a Hierarch-humility ahead and the Command
behind. Likewise, the concept of Hierarchy is clearly expressed in the words of the Apostle about
the Comforter. This advice should be similarly understood, because inaction in sorrow is not
indicated, but consolation is prepared through achievement. Thus, even the best Teachings are
obscured by not acknowledging that which is imperceptible to earthly sight.

341. How is responsibility understood by the many? How little do people ponder upon the great
affirmation of responsibility! The one who accepts responsibility with obvious light-mindedness
or with selfish desires is subject to a terrible karma. When the great Service for the good of
humanity is given, responsibility should be carried accordingly. When Our vessel is in the hands
of the Carrier, it means that dignity should be preserved, in order that the wondrous vessel may
keep its wings. Verily, it is befitting that responsibility be carried by a tempered spirit and with
the entire solicitude of the heart.
342. Individuality and egoism are like birth and death. The building of individuality manifests the
conception of a New World, whereas egoism can mirror itself in the dead volcanoes of the moon.
Not only does egoism deaden itself, it strikes the surroundings with sterility, whereas
individuality kindles fires in all adjacent camps. Cooperation is the crown of individuality, but the
scourge of egoism is like the sting of a scorpion. Can one rely upon egoism? No more than upon a
viper! But true individuality contains in itself the foundation of universal justice. We must gather
individualities; for a new diamond is in need of cutting, but egoism must pass through many
incarnations. Indeed, this law may also be changed by the fire of the heart. Therefore, we can
advise those adhering to egoism to be kindled by the proximity of a fiery heart.
343. Not without purpose do We kindle the beacons of the fiery heart as a refuge for travelers. It
is not easy for the flaming heart, yet it sacrifices itself for its neighbors, which reveals the justice
of the Commandment of Bliss. But joy is a special wisdom.
344. At the time of world reconstruction one can hold fast only through affirmation of the New
World. The ascertainment of the manifested decision can enter life only through great
understanding of world regeneration by way of the great law of Hierarchy. Therefore, those who
seek the New World must strive to the confirmation of the Decree of Hierarchy, which directs
through the appointed Hierarchy. Only thus can balance be established in the world. Only a
flamingly guiding Heart will manifest salvation. Thus, the world is in need of the affirmation of
the law of Hierarchy! [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
