According to the Masters, this Unfed Flame is a Flame of Divinity and of spiritual consciousness.
The
Masters refer to this phenomenon in other terms: the Threefold Flame,
Monad, and Jiva. The Unfed Flame urges humanity to evolve beyond its
present state of spiritual consciousness through Co-creative thought,
feeling, and action. Relying upon a higher, spiritual consciousness, the
Lords of Venus—servants of humanity and onetime denizens of the planet
Venus—rooted Love, Wisdom, Power, and the Unfed Flame in the human
heart.
These Divine Tenets empower humans to achieve a higher sense
of consciousness, thereby assuring humanity a type of spiritual
immortality.
The grafting of the sublime Unfed Flame to the carnal human heart occurred from afar.
Ancestral
helpers on Venus directed a collective and everlasting energy force
toward humanity on earth. The Venusian and ever-youthful lord named
Sanat Kumara, the overseer of Shamballa, spearheaded this Mission. With
an etheric Silver cord, he connected the Unfed
Flame to every life
stream incarnation on earth. When this flame of spiritual consciousness
began to develop among individuals, Sanat Kumara led a group of higher
beings to earth where they established the first Golden City, later
known as Shamballa. This spiritual center possessed unrivaled opulence;
streets paved with Gold passed jewel-encrusted Temples and Schools of
Higher Wisdom and Knowledge.
In addition to its metaphysical
influence on the human body, the Unfed Flame serves as a portal to a
being of greater spiritual consciousness—the I AM Presence—to which we
are indelibly connected. Meanwhile, these legends appear in other
doctrines. Vedic Cosmology—Hindu-based metaphysics—mirrors a similar
creation story. According to the sacred Sanskrit text of Hindu
philosophy, the Bhagavad-Gita, fourteen planetary systems exist in the
intangible universe.
The highest is Satyaloka where residents grasp
advanced spiritual knowledge. Sanat Kumara and Sananda—who in Vedic
culture is referred to as Sanandana Kumara—are two of the four sons of
Brahma and inhabit in the second-tier planetary system of Tapaloka.
Earth, known as Bhurloka, falls seventh in line.
Each planetary
system creates a unique experience for its dwellers—the sentience of the
space-time continuum and the manifestation of the physical being
differentiate higher from lower beings. Residents of enlightened strata
perceive time durations in millennia, have no sense of fear, and do not
confront disease or the aging of the body. In the lower planetary
systems, residents experience shorter life spans, marked fear,
widespread disease, and increased apprehension. - Lori Toye from Points of Perception
