Re: Theos-World In Search of the Primordial Tradition and the Cosmic Christ....

Dear Govert,
Yesterday Erica had given link of a youtube documentary on Annie Besant and MKR gave 3 links to another documentary on J. Krishnamurti. Both these had three parts. I saw all these six short videos, each of few minutes. In one of these videos it is narrated that after listening to J. Krishnamurti's speeches Annie Besant was "shattered" but outwardly she tried to remain clam. It means writers of this documentary obviously has a reference that shows Annie Besant was "shattered" after listening to Krishnamurti's speeches. 
If we study this reference it will give us more understanding of whether Annie Besant approved Krishnamurti's thoughts in her mind or whether she was just showing approval outwardly for reasons like avoiding embarrassment etc.

At least he acknowledged the first overshadowing on December 28, 1925 and Hodson has some clairvoyant descriptions of an overshadowing at the (probably) 1926 Star Camp in Ommen.

> 2) 1921-1925: As the process of his awakening started (the 'Process') his discourse becomes more experiential, personal, poetic, passionate and mystical.

> 
> 4) 1927-1933: The creeping dissatisfaction with his role, Theosophy and his followers is reflected in his speeches, which become slightly more provocative, stern, denunciatory, arrogant, impatient, etc.
> 
> 5) 1933-1986: The 'mature' teachings stripped of all esoteric, occult, Theosophical terms and ideas.

> Jinarajadasa, who stayed in contact with K till he died, thought K was initially full of love and inspiration, but had tossed that attitude and replaced it with a cold, stern philosophy, with which he "stiffed the Indian people." He implored K many times to pick up his more loving stand. Hodson also believed in that capacity of K and hoped it would come out again.

>   Hi D,
> 
>   This is an interesting topic and one which i have studied for many years. I have kept my eye on the ball so to speak regarding the changes around the world and they way specific events tie into this philosophy or ideal. 
> 
>   The Cosmic Christ in my opinion is none other than Maitreya. The World teacher and unifer.
> 
>   Maitryea is amongst us now, living in London and yet to reveal himself to the world. I believe that Maitreya is an energy that overshadows individuals. In the past many prophetic individuals like Christ, Buddah, Mohammed, Khrishna and so have all been overshadowed by Maitreya. 
> 
>   In our time i feel that the shell (Person) Maitreya will eventually overshadow is amongst us now and has experienced progressivly stronger and more intense overshadowing' s during his/her life.
> 
>   The remnents of Maitreya's visits unto this shell has allowed the individual person who will eventually be known as the world teacher to use his/her inner/third eye to prepare themselves for the final overshadowing. 
> 
>   With Maitreya's energies this individual will become connected to the source you speak of. Be it the path the tao or as Mr Lucas would prefer to call it, the force...
> 
>   In any event this energy would allow that particular individual to see all life like neo in the matrix. Not green lines of 1 and 0's but more to the point the true fabric or make up of all existence. With this vision he will be able to correct the unaligned properties which at present at responsible for the chaos in this world.
> 
>   I also beleive he will prepare us all for an allagorical armeggedon. Perhaps not so much on the physical plane but most certainly on the spiritual. Thus allowing us to remove our inner evils/Djinns/ or devils and become consciously aware in the process. This awareness will ultimatly put the planet in synch and as a result we will have a global consciousness and thus the new world order will become a positive reality unifying all under one religion one currency one body of government with Maitreya at the head of this government. Maitryea will
>   be working alongside a group of masters who have been preparing for his/her coming and who will work alongside Maitreya to correct the balance of the world and bring us out of the age of pisces (christ-Individuali sm) and bring us into the age of aquarius (Maitreya-Synchroni city). 
> 
>   This will be aided by our current government through a planned apocolypse which is needed as a catalyst for change into a new form of consciousness. 
> 
>   I feel project Blue Beam will be at the heart of this theatricle and will be televised by the world as we see a cataclysm of falling comets, Planet x/Nibiru arriving and becoming brighter both day and night in the sky and the visitation of extra terrestrial life. (Annunaki, Nephilim, realians, Angels). 
> 
>   This leaves us with the identy of Maitreya and the means with which he/she will show themselves to the world. My personally beleive is that he will arrive via music. This art form touches the masses like no other form of energy and i truely believe he/she will be readying the world with an album of deeply spiritual significance. On this album he/she will bring knowledge to the world and a declaration that he/she is the new age chirst/Maitreya.
> 
>   You may ask me why i believe this...well I have been working on my Album entitled Maitreya (The Falling Away) for the last 9 months and this has been and ongoing process which started when i was at the tender age of 13 i am now 33 the age christ was when he fulfilled prophecy. I am also an Aquarian and I live in london. On June the 22nd (Solar Eclipse) My album will be delivered to all places of Spiritual worship, to local media and to parts of the music industry. This will potentially start a snowball effect and thus my emergence onto the world stage will begin. However this will be down to the people of the world and if they are actually ready to accept this eventuality before it is too late.
