Spiritual and Service Mission www.masterek.org Institute for Planetary Synthesis www.ipsgeneva.com PREFACE Every one of us has the following layers of consciousness which we can easily recognise: 1. The point of consciousness which we call the individuality. Around it all other things are centred. 2. The mind that recognises its own existence. 3. The mind that comes out through the senses and makes a contact with “others”. 4. The mind that knows and decides. 5. The mind that establishes its relationships with others. 6. The light that recognises itself existing in others. 7. The one who lives in all in the form of Love. There are people who live in each of these seven layers of consciousness. A living being awakens as the central point of the globe of one’s own existence (individuality). It takes up its journey and awakens into the second layer and the third layer of its own existence. This process is what the Ancients call Evolution. It continuous until it reaches the seventh, the outermost plane of consciousness, when it experiences the One Existence. This One Existence is liberation from the other six layers of consciousness. The PREFACE seventh layer, though it is absolute and beyond time and space, exists as the One Person who showers His Love upon the beings of all the other layers. This One Person can be called the Eternal Existence. There are people who come down to earth and live in a physical body with the awareness of this seventh plane. From time to time, they come down to earth. They invoke the same consciousness to others and they show us the way of life to be lived in order to live the Eternal Existence. They call it the Law. They establish it and return to their own planes of existence. They are all the forms of the One Existence, The One Guru, The World Teacher. Each of these has his own way of invoking the living beings into the eternal life. Lord Krishna had His own way and He called it “the Music.” He could play the Music through His flute and invoke the souls into His Existence, the Existence. He made some of the souls around Him experience it. On sudden occasions, He made all those around Him experience it. He made the process a formula of liberation and a grand solution to all the problems of humanity. This happened more than five thousand years ago as the Puranas and the Mahabharata describe. Internal ii PREFACE evidences make it possible to have back calculations based on astronomical phenomena. The Mahabharata, the Bhagavata Purana, Harivamsa and Vishnu Purana give us the internal evidences. They can be recorded as follows: 1. Lord Krishna was born in the month of July, 3228 B.C. midnight at zero hours between the nineteenth and the twentieth. 2. He dropped His physical body on the eighteenth of February, 3102 B.C. 3. He lived along with his people in Dwaraka, a city built by Him on the shores of the present Gujarat. The city is no more and it went into the sea on the seventh day after Krishna’s death. The main characters of this book are taken from the Puranas. The ancient tradition that became the basis of the theosophical wisdom is taken as the basis of this book. The characters of Maitreya, Maru and Devapi are gathered from the Puranas and it is shown how they live through births and rebirths with the continuity of consciousness which enables them to have a continuous plan of their work. Their plan is called the plan of the Masters and it has no other iii PREFACE purpose except fulfilling the purpose of the World Teacher, whenever He wants to come down or whenever He wants to touch the Humanity with a new thrill. Maitreya is known by the same name in the modern age. He is also known as the Christ. Maru of the Puranas is known as Morya while Devapi is known as Kuthumi, Djwhalkhul, the Light of the present day, who is also known as Master D.K. and the Tibetan, was trained into discipleship by Maru and Devapi through centuries. This book presents the facts that took place five thousand years ago. This book describes the trend of things that made Djwhalkhul a Master. The whole content of this book came to my mind as a flash within seconds and I started to dictate the book at 10:30 P.M. on 27-01-1973 and completed it by 05:30 P.M. on 10-02-1973. The book came to me without any proposal from my side. Then I thought it was a single volume. Afterwards, I received the next volume, “Man Sacrifice”; then I received the book “The World Teacher.” According to the sequence of incidents they form part of the biography of Lord Krishna in the following order. iv PREFACE Volume 1: The World Teacher Volume 6: The Music of the Soul Volume 7: Man Sacrifice Volumes 2, 3, 4 and 5 are still awaited. Volume 2 is almost completed and ready for publication. The names of other volumes, as I understand, are as follows: Volume 2: The Child’s Play, Volume 3: The Law Personified, Volume 4: The Eagle Banner, Volume 5: The Conch Each of these volumes is being published in original (Telugu language), from which they are being translated into English and are presented by the same author.
