We are nearing a time of major change in the world: before long, the transformation of all structures will begin, commencing with the dissolution of the stock markets as they now function. This will release the pressures now being imposed on governments by currency speculation, and allow a fair and equitable trading system to be developed. Short-term measures must recognize the special and urgent need of poorer nations for succour. In particular, the problems of hunger and disease must be addressed without delay. New methods of distribution of resources, based on sharing and need, will supplant the present chaotic modes which so divide the world. The blind following of market forces, whose myopic rule causes such misery today, will give way to an enlightened and just consideration for the needs of all.

First steps

Very soon, the first steps will be taken. When, in answer to Maitreya’s call, the peoples of the world make known their desire for justice and peace, the walls of ignorance and greed which now separate the nations will come tumbling down. The voices of the people, raised in unison, will shake the ancient bastions of privilege and power and crumble them to dust. Thus will it be. Thus will the new thought emerge from the stale confines of the past.

When that time comes, the Masters, too, will add their voice to the clamour for freedom and justice. Separated no more by the wall of silence imposed by Law, Masters and men will together chart the seas of the New Time, creating a blueprint for change acceptable to all. Consensus will be the guiding rule, each step of the way inaugurated and approved by humanity itself.

In this way, the new structures will be forged, experiments of all kinds undertaken. A new and fresh approach to every problem will release a myriad ideas which, when implemented, will change the face of Earth.

Peaceful transformation

Instant and total change is neither possible nor desirable; too many ancient roots hold, yet, the minds of men. Peaceful and gradual transformation will bring about the desired result: the emancipation of men from the bonds of the past; the inception of an era in which peace will prevail, justice manifest, joyful and ready sharing be the order of the day.

Then will men know the truth for long obscured by selfish greed: that the sons of men are one; that the Father of all cares for the welfare of all and provides adequate supply; that the intrinsic goodness of men shines ever through the mists of ignorance and folly.

Thus bolstered and emboldened in spirit, men will start anew on the long journey to perfection, sure now of constant aid and guidance from their Elder Brothers. We welcome this opportunity to serve the unfolding Plan.
