Consider This:
“There was a time when (in the early history of the planet) there was no Hierarchy; there were only two major centers in the expression of the life of the Lord of the World: Shamballa and His embryonic throat centre, Humanity. Shamballa was the head centre.” During this time, “certain developed and informed Lives” lived and walked among men and more or less shepherded infant humanity along the Path of evolution. Eventually infant humanity became capable of being impressed with the Living Plan. “but the matter aspect and quality—that of active intelligence—was so strong that the second historical phase became essential.” The Rays and Initiations P. 380-5

This was the creation of the Hierarchy. The heart center of the Lord of the World came into being, and became a “mediating center between Shamballa and Humanity.” The 2nd Ray Ashram was the first functioning Ashram in the heart Center. According to the lore (See the material from The Rays and Initiations P. 380-5) the next Ashram to get up and running was the 7th Ray Ashram. The other six Ashrams came into focus over very long periods of time, with the First Ray ashram being the last.

Regarding the present manifestation of the Ashram of Synthesis:

Master R tells us that “This Synthetic Ashram is actually being recreated, for at another time, that which I can refer to as not exactly an analogy, not exactly a correspondence of this Ashram, was in existence.” Ashramic Projections P.36 The Hierarchy is the Ashram of Sanat Kumara. When the 2nd and 7th Ray Ashrams were generated, they were done so from the 1st Ray center, Shamballa. Thus the initial Hierarchical appearance on the planet was a synthesis of the 1st ray aspect from Shamballa, and the 2nd 7th ray aspects within the Heart Center. It is possible that this ashramic alignment is what Master R. is referring to as “not exactly an analogy, not exactly a correspondence of this Ashram, was in existence.”

So, suppose that the earlier manifestation of the Synthetic Ashram to which Master R. refers was functioning during the period when Humanity generated the cataclysm which wiped out the Atlantean Civilization, and broke the Antahkarana. After this event, the Ashram was disintegrated. “Its members were forced to reenter the evolutionary process almost at the animal man stage and to recapitulate the growth and development achieved up through the evolutionary process until [they] have arrived at this point in awareness [Realization of their membership in the present manifestation of the Ashram of synthesis.] .” Ashramic Projections P36

It seems that it was a very long time before the 1st Ray Ashram came into focus within the heart center. Thus the initial existence of “not exactly an analogy, not exactly a correspondence of this Ashram,” to which Master R. is referring could well have been this early alignment of 1,2,7.

Consider This:
Note: In most cases, when we make a statement involving numbers of this and that or percentages of numbers, we are either quoting sources or simply offering what seems to us to be reasonable estimates.


Many of us are experiencing a very powerful sense of rushing forward into the new. We are all aware of the acceleration of events in all areas of our lives. We are pondering on the causes and forces that are driving this event chain.

In an appendix to his Nine Chains To The Moon Buckminster Fuller provided, as only he could, an exhaustive listing of scientific advances and inventions from ancient times to the 1936. From about the time just preceding the Renaissance, the acceleration of scientific advances and technological development is very obvious.
For purposes of this consideration, I will point out from innumerable post 1936 examples just a couple that indicate the accelerating rate of this acceleration.
From the beginning of recorded history to the first controlled powered airplane flight in the U.S. at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina December 17, 1903 was, who knows how long?
First manmade object to reach the moon September 13, 1959.
First human on moon July 20, 1969.

From Kitty Hawk to the moon in 56 years and 10 years later, man walks on the moon.
Electronic room sized computers developed in 1940-45.
Personal computer with 2 floppy drives and a 10 megabyte hard drive 1991.
5 pound “notebook” computer with millions of times the processing power and storage capacity, 1995. Today, the flash card in my Cool Pix 3 10Megapixel digital pocket camera can hold 4 gigabytes of data.

As we are all aware, there are many other examples of this acceleration in all areas of human life that could be noted.

There is another perhaps even more amazing acceleration ongoing as we write:

In the year 1000, it is estimated that there were 275 million people on the planet.
In 1650 it is estimated that there were 500 million people on the planet.
It took 650 years to make 225 million people.
In 1804 the estimate is 1 billion.
It took only a 150 years to make 500 million.
In 1900 approximately 1.6 billion.
It took about 100 years to make 600 million
In 1965 3.3 Billion
It took 65 years to make 1.7 Billion
In 2009 6.8 Billion.
It took 44 years to make 3.5 billion.

Astounding! Yeah….

But what is going on here? What is the result of this amazing population acceleration? Could there be a connection between the population acceleration and the acceleration of science and technology developments as well as all the other areas of human life?

I think so.

Consider this:
We know, guess, that the level of intellect or intelligence varies among individuals, some being rather “smarter” than others. We considered, rather ambitiously, that perhaps 25% were what we could call members of group A, the intelligentsia, and these would range from “genius” to average, “IQ” range from 300 to 110 or so. Another 25% would be members of group B. O.K. or sort of average, “IQ” range from 109 to 95 or so. The remaining 50% would be group C at relative stages of “ignorance”.

So, we could guess that there were 68,750,000 or so group A people on the planet in year 1000. Assuming that the percentages of the various groups stayed the same as the centuries rolled by, the numbers of group A people on the planet by 1650 was 125 million, by 1800, 250 million, by 1900 there are 400 million group A people on the planet, and by 2009 there are 1.7 billion group A people on the planet.

Now, recalling this bit from the Agless Wisdom Teachings:
"Humanity is intended to be the medium wherein certain activities can be instituted. It [Humanity] is in reality the brain of the planetary Deity, its many units being analogous to the brain cells in the human apparatus. Just as the human brain, made up of an infinite number of sentient responsive cells, can be suitably impressed when quiescence has been achieved, and can become the medium of expression for the plans and purposes of the soul, transmitting its ideas via the mind, so the planetary Deity, working under the inspiration of the Universal Mind, can impress humanity with the purposes of God and produce consequent effects in the world of phenomena." A Treatise on White Magic P.527

So, what do you think? A connection? Does this put population growth in a proper perspective?

My thinking is that the planet functioning under the Principles and Laws of the Plan can beautifully support several billions more of us. Try to think beyond the myopic horizon of the separated individual.

It is quite clear to me that the problems we are encountering in terms of starvation and disease and general destruction of the planet's environment and life support systems have been generated by our self centered economic and political systems. When those 1.7 billion group A brain cells shift their focus form personal aggrandizement and enrichment to the Common Good and the General Welfare we will see the dawning of Aquarius as it has been Planned.
