Poised as man is on the threshold of the New Age, it is essential to give some thought to the forms into which the present inadequate structures should grow. To ensure that the changes proceed in the desired direction of greater social justice and eventually brotherhood, we could do well to look closely at the means whereby these conditions may be achieved.

It is obvious that the present structures no longer serve man's need for peace and co-operation on a national or international level; the opposite holds true. Were man to continue in the present mode, annihilation would be inevitable. Fortunately, there are those who see this and work for change.

Structures are required which, at the same time, give the greatest freedom and tolerance to inidividual the right to exploit his brothers. While preserving the enterprising spirit of the talented individual, they must also ensure the rights of the community as a whole.

Structures must be sought which take advantage of man's natural desire to participate in all that affects his life. This will make for greater social cohesion and sense of shared responsibility. The present political party systems are clearly inadequately to provide for this participation and must give way to other forms of representation. This holds as true for the Democratice West as for the Communistic East.

Envisage a process whereby, more and more, each man or woman becomes engaged in the making of decisions on the level of community affair.

THE CREATION OF NEW STRUCTURES

An entirely new possibility of social relationship opens up for humanity. As man stands on the threshold of the Aquarian experience, altogether new levels of awareness will manifest themselves in this coming time. This will lead to the creation of new forms through which man can express his growing sense of the interrelatedness of all things.

At first, these new structures will be slow to form as man carefully finds his way out of the present morass; but, gradually, a fresh impetus to change will be given by the Masters forming the first group of the externalizing Hierarchy. New ideas ill sweep across the world, relating men to each other in a new way, and a new approach so social living will begin.

Here it is necessary to digress for a moment to underline the inadequacy of the present social structures, now fast decaying. Today, large number of people live deeply unfulfilled lives, dedicated only to ‘earning a living’, contributing little of a truly creative nature to the general fund of knowledge and experience. Through no fault of their own they remain passive onlookers of a life which passes them by. Bereft of any real joy and meaning in their lives, they await in growing resentment their day of revenge. This constitutes a major world problem. On all sides today can be seen bafflement, confusion and anger.

Into the midst of this confusion has come the Christ. His is the task to point the way into new structures which will allow man’s growing sense of himself as a divine being to be expressed. Only the Masters and the Christ Himself know the enormity of His task. Nevertheless, We await, with confidence, humanity’s response.
To begin with, massive aid for the poorer areas of the world must be given the highest priority to alleviate the suffering of many millions. The redistribution of the world’s resources according to need should then proceed until a more equitable balance is achieved. This will take two to three years to implement. Concurrently, a far-reaching programme of education must be inaugurated to deal with the growing problems of unemployment and the ever-increasing demands for a correct and more creative use of leisure. A gradual restructuring of society will take place with the minimum of cleavage; men’s hope of a society based on sharing and love will gradually be fulfilled, and the ne era will guarantee to each his rightful place.
These new forms will lead to the expression of as yet dimly sensed attributes in man. The awakening of powers of perception and reception hitherto unrealized will quicken his understanding of the spiritual basis of life, and more and more, in mounting rhythm, his inner divinity will become manifest. His social forms will mirror his sense of the interconnectedness of all creation and will lead to the establishment of correct relationship to all the kingdoms. Once again, man will realize the sacredness of all life and will take the necessary steps to protect that life from harm. A creative interchange between all groups will flow and will ensure a steady realization of man’s human – and divine – potential.
Freed by machines from the burden of unnecessary work, millions will find within themselves a creativity absent until now, and will contribute their share to the glowing tapestry of joyful living which become the hallmark of the New Age.
