Transmission Meditation -
A Potent Method of Service
By Benjamin
Creme
The following article was
transcribed from Benjamin Creme's talks on Transmission meditation given in Nagoya and
Osaka, Japan, during a lecture tour.
Meditation is, depending on the type of meditation, a more or
less scientific means of contacting the soul, and of eventually becoming at-one with the
soul. That is the basic purpose of meditation of any kind.
Transmission meditation is a way of serving the world. Unlike many other forms of
meditation, it attracts to it only those people who have a desire to serve. This desire to
serve manifests itself in an individual only when that person has made some degree of
contact with his or her own soul. This is because it is the
soul which desires to serve. The nature of the soul is to serve.
The first response to soul contact (whether it is followed up or not) is a desire to serve
the world in some way. Transmission meditation provides a simple, easy form of very potent
service to the world which at the same time is an extremely potent, fast method of
personal growth. This personal, evolutionary result is a side effect of the Transmission
meditation process.
The Masters have at their disposal tremendous spiritual
energies. A major part of the Masters' work is to distribute these energies in the world
to produce the effects, the fulfillment of the Plan of Evolution which They know to be
envisaged for this planet. The Masters are the custodians of the Plan and the custodians
of the energies which bring about the fulfillment of the Plan. Many of these energies are
cosmic in source and if they were released directly into the world they would be too high,
and would simply bounce off the mass of humanity.
Transmission meditation groups act as sub-stations.
The Masters send these spiritual energies through the chakras
of the individuals in the groups. This automatically transforms the energies, making them
more accessible, more usable by humanity. The Masters then direct the energies into the
world wherever they are needed.
Transmission Groups All Over The World
There are several hundreds of transmission groups, all over the world, and they meet
regularly at a particular time and day, whatever is suitable for the individual group.
This can be once, twice or three times a week. The groups can be anything from three
people upwards. Three people form a triangle; that is the basic group.
The group meets and sounds together, aloud, the Great Invocation,
which has been given to humanity for this purpose. This Invocation was released to the
world in 1945 by Maitreya to give us a technique for invoking
the energies which would transform the world and prepare for his coming. By the sounding
of this great mantram with the attention focused on the ajna centre (between the
eyebrows), a conduit is formed between the group and the Hierarchy of Masters. Through
that conduit the Masters send their energies.
These spiritual forces are precisely the energies which are transforming the world right
now. Maitreya fills the world with the energy of equilibrium, for example, and national
leaders find that they can work together, can compromise, can reach some kind of
consensus, almost overnight. Suddenly, nations who have been enemies for centuries,
perhaps, find that they can talk together round a table, and peacefully work out a
solution. They are simply responding correctly to the energies which the Hierarchy of
Masters
are sending out into the world.
A Potent Form of Service
That is the service which the transmission groups perform for the world. It allows you to
move away from simple contact with your own
soul to a working relationship with the Kingdom of Souls, the Spiritual Hierarchy of
Masters.
It is not possible to work in this way, to have the energies sent through the chakras,
without the chakras themselves being stimulated, galvanized and transformed. The Masters
measure the point in evolution of any individual disciple by
the quality of light emanating from the chakras. People talk about auras: brilliant auras
and rather dull auras, wide auras and narrow auras. The auras are really the synthesis of
all the energies emanating through into -- and out of -- the chakras up the spine. The
more active, the more stimulated these chakras are, the greater the radiation, the wider
and more brilliant the aura. This designates the degree of the disciple.
In Transmission meditation, your chakras are stimulated in a way that would be altogether
impossible otherwise. In one year of consistent, intensive Transmission meditation, you
can make the same kind of advance as in 10 or 15 years of personal meditation. It is a
hothouse, a forcing process. For this reason, it is not for everyone. Only those who wish
to serve the world in some way would be bothered to do Transmission meditation, because
nothing seems to be happening during the meditation. You may or may not be aware of the
energies; some feel the energies very clearly and powerfully, some do not feel them at
all. This has little to do with your point of advancement, but, in the main, with your
particular type of physical body.
This work, however, leads to very profound changes in the individual. Most people, within
six months or a year of starting Transmission meditation, realize the changes in
themselves, recognize that they are becoming a different, a better person. People find
that they can experience, and demonstrate, love more easily. They find that their minds
are more stimulated and creative. They may find that they have more discipline, more
determination, more consistency in their approach to work. People see their group members
become more radiant, softer, more loving -- in a word, more spiritual.
A large number of people receive healing, spontaneously, during the transmissions. The
technique involved is very simple and is applicable to anyone above the age of 12.
Transmission meditation
does not interfere with any other form of meditation which you might do. On the contrary,
it can only potentize, make more valuable, any other meditation.
It is absolutely safe because it is in the hands of the Masters, the Master scientists of
the planet. It is potent, safe and scientific because the real work, the major work, is
done for you by the Masters themselves. All that you are asked to do in a Transmission
meditation is to hold your attention at the ajna centre between the eyebrows. That is all.
You will find, however, that your attention will wander from this centre. When you realize
that this has happened, you sound, inwardly, the mantram OM, or think OM, and your
attention will come back automatically to the ajna centre. Holding the attention at the
ajna centre produces an alignment between the physical brain and the soul. The energies
are sent from the level at which the Masters habitually work: the soul level (the buddhic
level, to be precise). While that alignment is held, the transmission will take place.
I can assure you that there is no more potent service that you can give so easily, with
such little expenditure of effort, to the world. Nor will you find a technique of personal
growth so potent, so far-reaching, for such little effort. All the Masters, perfect as
they are, spend 24 hours a day in transmitting their energies. There is no being in cosmos
not involved in transmitting energy from levels above to levels below Them. We live in an
energetic universe. That energy, from however high a level, is being transmitted, stepped
down, received; transmitted, stepped down, and received, throughout cosmos.
If you find that Transmission meditation is for you, then you have a mode of service which
will last until the end of your life and through all future lives.
There are hundreds of Transmission groups all over the world. If you
