CONTRIBUTION - ACTION
What is built of clay and even stone will one day be destroyed and rendered to dust. Nature’s power to create is matched equally by its power to destroy and civilisation’s attempts to tame Nature are, in the end, futile. Yet the inner strength and subtlety to go against the flow of wrong-mindedness, and to find a place to be in harmony with life, can be bound into perpetuity as the qualities of our race and the eternal, indestructible essence of the species-nature, our humanity. |

CONTRIBUTION - CULTURAL IMPLICATIONS
In order to contribute to humanity’s best hopes for evolutionary development we must first be able to reach higher states of awareness of the collective thrust of our species. Yet also we must trust that our own, personal creative inspiration is valid, and in fact we need to find a process of modelling our vision so that it becomes clear and compelling, and then we must act upon it. Constantly revisiting and reviewing our essence-nature will help us to guard against the loss of identity into collective ideals. |

CONTRIBUTION - INDIVIDUAL IMPLICATIONS
Our greatest contribution to the community, to God and to ourselves is the same thing – to live in peaceful joy. From this condition all things flow harmoniously, we feel love and beauty, we create sparkling works, we serve, we listen and we feel for others. The path to this state takes us through dark places within and yet can be successfully navigated by the strong willed and cleared minded. We need to trust inner guidance and also find external guidance from more advanced individuals. It is the highest purpose of life to do so. |

MANAGEMENT - ACTION
We have no choice but to find a way to manage our lives and on this Earth plane we are constantly in harm’s way and not wise to trust other people completely. These challenging life circumstances are entirely necessary for us to face our issues; none of us is perfect and we each have to face and deal with our imperfections if we are to evolve personally and collectively. In a crisis we are tested and expanded and without this no spiritual unfolding can occur. However, in the end, for those of us who deal with our issues fully the blessing of a peaceful spiritual life is promised. |

MANAGEMENT - CULTURAL IMPLICATIONS
It is a truly prodigious task to overcome emotionality without strangling the feelings, especially when disillusionment and grief hit us hard. But we can count on the support of kind people around us, and also we ourselves will find kindness bubbling up towards others in their time of struggle. We need to find the highest level of self-discipline if we are to free ourselves from imposed discipline, and then we find that there is a condition of mind, a state of consciousness, that can be found and briefly inhabited but not sustained indefinitely. It takes us out of duality and so above all emotions, yet with heightened sensitivity to feelings and clarity of perception. If we frequently practise being in this state then at some point the third eye opens, in other words the pineal gland is awakened after a long period of dormancy. Then we can see it all. |

MANAGEMENT - INDIVIDUAL IMPLICATIONS
Clarity of intelligence, and softness of heart, need to be brought into balance and employed together to manage life with expediency and grace. Then we are ready to take initiation and surrender to, and yet simultaneously claim, group consciousness. |
