| S.O.P. – Save Our Planet! |
| by the Master —, through Benjamin Creme |
| When one looks deeply into the present situation in the world, two things stand out as particularly important: the danger of war and the acceleration of the Earth’s ecological imbalance. There are, of course, many other problems: the economic debacle which affects many countries, especially in the West; the huge increases in the price of food, especially the staple diet of many millions; the huge, and growing, disparity in living standards between the rich and the poor. | | All of these problems are important and require early resolution. The two first named must command the attention of all sensible men and governments for they present the greatest threat to man’s well-being. Wars, large and small, should by now be unthinkable, but, sadly, this is not the case. Even a world which has known the folly and futility of war at its most terrible has still not relinquished, totally, that abomination. The governments are seduced into thinking that old ways will, after all, render up their coveted prize. The weapons of war, therefore, have become indispensable and a major trading asset. While the weapons are there they will be used. Small wars beget large wars as more countries become involved. Large nations fight by proxy through their allies and so prolong unimportant quarrels into war. This major danger must be abandoned by all nations. It threatens the very existence of men on Earth. | | Apart from war, nothing so profoundly affects the future of all men as much as pollution. Some countries have recognised this fact and have taken some steps to limit pollution and global warming. Others, sometimes the chief polluters, deny the reality of global warming despite the overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Daily, now, the climatic changes prove beyond doubt that the planet is sick and needs immediate and skilful care to re-establish equilibrium. Time is running out for men to halt the transformation which is being daily wrought on planet Earth. Every man, woman and child must play their part in the task. Time is, verily, running out. S.O.P. Save Our Planet! | | [Readers may be interested to note that it is hoped that S.O.P. will eventually become an internationally well-known phrase to rally all to take action to save our planet.] |

| “Q. Some people think the UN is lacking in many areas and has become somewhat impotent, even though it helps feed hungry people, and that it should do more. So what is the best way for treating many global problems? | | | A. In the future, agreements will be reached by large numbers of international groups. In this situation, the United Nations will become the key factor and then it will come into its own. Unfortunately today, it is deeply frowned upon by the more right-wing groups in the United States. … and yet the world owes the United Nations a tremendous debt. It is one of the great educators on the planet. It is one of the great medical sources for millions and millions of people – healthcare for groups who have no other means of getting it, or no outlets for giving adequate health care, are relying on the United Nations agency system for the health care they receive. Without the United Nations, which is a triumph of our modern society, millions and millions of people would go wanting even more than they do. So we must give every ounce of strength to the United Nations.” | | | – From Q&A with Benjamin Creme reprinted in the June issue. Be sure to check out the Table of Contents linked below. |

| Spring Festivals |
|
During the spring full moons of Aries, Taurus and Gemini, spiritual energies are at their most powerful because of the sun–moon–earth alignment and the potency of these ancient festivals. Group meditation, and particularly Transmission Meditation, provides a unique opportunity for us to invoke these evolutionary energies for spiritual service – something especially helpful during this time of planetary transformation. Transmission group members are encouraged to ‘connect’ with any Share International groups at the time/s the groups have chosen. This information is sent to groups in a separate communication. If you are new to Transmission Meditation, we invite you to join a special Zoom introduction and meditation on Tuesday, June 14, 7:30 pm EDT celebrating the Gemini Festival. To request the Zoom link, send an email to our Contact page. Below we have provided a brief description of this last Festival and some simple meditation guidelines.

Festival of the Christ/The Festival of Goodwill (Gemini)
Date: June 14
"This will be the Festival of the spirit of humanity aspiring towards God, seeking conformity with the will of God and dedicated to the expression of right human relations. This will be fixed annually in relation to the Full Moon of June. It will be a day whereon the spiritual and divine nature of mankind will be recognised. On this Festival for two thousand years the Christ has represented humanity and has stood before the Hierarchy and in the sight of Shamballa as the God-Man, the Leader of His people, and "the Eldest in a great family of brothers" (Romans VIII: 29). Each year at that time He has preached the last sermon of the Buddha, before the assembled Hierarchy. This will, therefore, be a festival of deep invocation and appeal, of a basic aspiration towards fellowship, of human and spiritual unity, and will represent the effect in the human consciousness of the work of the Buddha and of the Christ." (The above quotes are from The Reappearance of the Christ by Alice Bailey, pp. 154-157)
On the day of the full moon, groups throughout the world link up mentally to form a conduit through which these great spiritual energies can reach humanity. You are invited to take part in this world service with these simple steps:
- Sit in a comfortable position, with head upright and spine straight.
- To start the meditation, close your eyes, focus your attention at the ajna center (between the eyebrows) and say "The Great Invocation" aloud.
- Visualize yourself connected to a vast network of triangles surrounding the globe.
- Keep your attention at the ajna center throughout the meditation. If your attention drops or your mind wanders, silently and inwardly think the mantram "OM" to refocus. Don’t meditate on “OM”, but simply use it to refocus when needed.
- Meditate for as long as you can on this day, but do not direct the energy anywhere. The Masters of Wisdom will know where it is needed most.

| A new world for humanity |
“ | Maitreya’s coming is about world change: change in our understanding of the needs of the planet, the ecological balance; the change in our economic systems so that all people are fed and cared for properly; change in relationships between people everywhere. The true understanding that humanity is one will show the absolute necessity for this profound transformation. It is the making of a new world. |

| Dare to be Aware Fair – Milwaukee, WI |
| |
After a 3-year delay, the Dare to Be Aware Fair was held in Milwaukee, WI on April 30. Many were open to the information, especially that Maitreya is already here with a group of Masters working behind the scenes and waiting for the right moment to step forward into open public view. The books of Benjamin Creme drew a lot of attention, especially The Esoteric Art of Benjamin Creme, which attracted a few artists who learned of its meaning as visual esoteric teachings. An astrologist learned that Maitreya is the World Teacher and the water bearer for the Age of Aquarius. An older Black woman was very surprised that the work of Benjamin Creme was a continuation of the work of Helena P. Blavatsky and Alice A. Bailey; she read all of their books as a young woman and had never come across anyone else who had. It was good to be able to connect with the public again about Maitreya. |

Transmission Meditation
Q&A with Benjamin Creme
What does Hierarchy do with all these energies?
Only Hierarchy knows that. They send them where they are needed, which might be to a particular country or area in the world, or else simply to top up, or keep at a high level, the reservoir of spiritual energies in the world. It is very important indeed that people in Transmission Meditation groups do not direct the energies. They should leave this to the Masters, Who alone know where they are needed and in what particular balance and potency. This is a moment-to-moment changing situation that only the Christ has the science to understand.
