THE ABERRATIONS THAT ALICE BAILEY SAID

 

 
 
 
I have confirmed that Alice Bailey on several occasions put real absurdities and enormous aberrations in her books, and in this chapter I am going to compile them for you:
 
 
 
CHRIST
 
In the theosophical teachings, Christ is the name given in the West to the Cosmic Consciousness that cares for humanity, but for Alice Bailey, Christ is a very spiritual man who lives in the Himalayas and whose main disciples are the trans-Himalayan Masters:
 
« Around Him [Christ] —in that High Place on Earth where He has His abiding place [Himalayas]— are gathered today all His great Disciples, the Masters of the Wisdom, and all Those liberated Sons of God Who, down the ages, have passed from darkness to Light, from the unreal to the Real, and from death to Immortality. They stand ready to carry out His bidding and to obey Him, the Master of all the Masters and the Teacher alike of Angels and of men»
(Book “The Reappearance of Christ”, chapter 3, p.37)
 
 
And for Alice Bailey, Christ is also the creator of religions, which he founded through his messiahs:
 
« Christ used the body of the initiate Jesus, taking possession of it at the moment of Baptism. »
(Book “Treatise on Cosmic Fire”, p.339)
 
 
But unfortunately his new disciple Krishnamurti failed to be the next messiah:
 
« One of the first experiments He made as He prepared for this form of activity was in connection with Krishnamurti. It was only partially successful. The power used by Him was distorted and misapplied by the devotee type of which the Theosophical Society is largely composed, and the experiment was brought to an end: it served, however, a most useful purpose»
(Book “Discipleship in the New Era II”, p.172)
 
 
And that is why on this occasion Christ will have to come personally to the West to create his new religion:
 
« They [his disciples] will prepare and work for conditions in the world in which Christ can move freely among men, in bodily Presence; He need not then remain in His present retreat in Central Asia. »
(Book “The Externalization of the Hierarchy”, p.590)
 
 
And to travel from the Himalayas to the West, Christ is going to take a plane:
 
« The Christian concept of the return of a triumphant Christ, coming in the clouds of heaven to Jerusalem, there to reign for a thousand years, is true in one way and utterly false as to design, location and method. Christ will return; the Jerusalem referred to (literally "the place of peace") is not the chief city of a small country called Palestine or the Holy Land; the word is simply symbolic of a peaceful world—a world which, through its own self-initiated efforts, has attained a general quietude and has acquired a certain measure of right human relations.
 
His coming in the air might be interpreted literally to mean that at the right time He will come by plane from the place on earth where He has been for many generations, watching over the sons of men; the words "every eye shall see Him" might mean that, by the time He comes, television will have been perfected and He will then be seen, by its means, from even the most distant spot on earth.
 
To the orthodox Christian, the above will sound like the rankest blasphemy, but the question immediately arises: Why should it be blasphemy for Him to use modern methods? »
(Book “The Externalization of the Hierarchy”, p.575)
 
 
 
In her ignorance Alice Bailey did not realize that the Christ she worshiped was in reality a fictional character invented by the charlatan Charles Leadbeater to promote Krishnamurti as the next messiah.
 
And although Krishnamurti gave up this charade, Alice Bailey continued with this story by saying increasingly crazy things.
 
 
 
 
 
 
WAR
 
Alice Bailey claims that war is the natural complement to peace, just as yin is the natural complement to yang.
 
« Peace and war are not a true pair of opposites. Peace and change, peace and movement, are the real ones. War is but an aspect of change, and has its roots deep in matter. »
(Book “The Externalization of the Hierarchy”, p.277)
 
 
But this is absurd because wars are not necessary for there to be peace, and wars are not necessary for changes to occur. And the proof is that most countries have not entered wars during the last eighty years, and yet the changes that have occurred in the world have been spectacular.
 
But Alice Bailey does not accept this asseveration and she also associates wars with the cycle of life and death:
 
« This stage of death and of birth (for the two are proceeding simultaneously) can be easily grasped by the esotericist as he studies the world war in its two distinctive periods: 1914 to 1918, and 1939 until 1942.
 
The first stage (if you could see the situation as it truly is) was most definitely the death stage; the second stage, in which we now find ourselves, is literally the stage of birth—the birth pangs of the new order and of the new civilization through which humanity's sense of life can express itself. The mother dies in order that the child may live. »
(Book “The Externalization of the Hierarchy”, p.116)
 
 
But this is also absurd because the cycle of life and death is a necessary cycle because nothing exists forever, but it is not necessary for wars to exist.
 
And as humans continue to evolve, they will want to kill each other less and less. And in fact currently it only requires that humans no longer allow themselves to be manipulated by their politic leaders for most wars to cease.
 
 
 
 
 
 
THE FIRST WORLD WAR
 
Alice Bailey assures that humans have to develop their psychic faculties, and to achieve that, the First World War was very beneficial because the numerous cannon shots caused the border that separates the physical world from the astral world to be torn.
 
« One of the results of the world condition at this time is the speeding up of all the atomic lives upon and within the planet. This necessarily involves the increased vibratory activity of the human mechanism, with a consequent effect upon the psychic nature, producing an abnormal sensitivity and psychic awareness. It would be of value here to remember that the condition of humanity at this time is not the result of simply one factor, but of several—all of them being active simultaneously, because this period marks the close of one age and the inauguration of the new.
 
The factors to which I refer are, primarily, three in number. One of them being the First World War, which marked a climax in the history of the human race and its subjective effect was much more powerful than we believe.
 
Through the power of prolonged sound, carried forward as a great experiment on the battlefields all over the world during a period of four years (1914-1918), and through the intense emotional strain of the entire planetary populace, the web of etheric matter (called the "veil of the temple") which separates the physical and astral planes was rent or torn asunder, and the amazing process of unifying the two worlds of physical plane living and of astral plane experience was begun and is now slowly going on.
 
It will be obvious, therefore, that this must bring about vast changes and alterations in the human consciousness. »
(Book “The Externalization of the Hierarchy”, p.3-4)
 
 
 
But what Alice Bailey says is completely opposite to what the Masters of Wisdom and their true disciples say, who strongly discourage humans from wanting to develop their psychic faculties because they do not yet have the necessary spiritual development to be able to apply those psychic faculties in a harmonious way, and therefore if they wake them up today they will end very badly.
 
And neither are the Masters in favor of the border between the physical plane and the astral plane decreasing, because already in the current situation humans are so tremendously badly influenced and besieged by the harmful entities of the lower astral. So if the border between those two worlds were reduced, the pernicious effects of these harmful entities on humanity would be even worse.
 
 
 
 
 
 
THE SECOND WORLD WAR
 
Alice Bailey claims that the Masters caused World War II:
 
« Due to the extraplanetary stimulus, the immediate planetary crisis and the current invoking demand of humanity, the energy of Shambhala has been allowed to act on the "center we call the race of men", producing two powerful results: first, the precipitation of world war, and second, the fission of the atom, resulting in the atomic bomb. »
(Book “The Rays and the Initiations”, p.647)
 
 
But this is completely false because the Masters of Shambhala must respect the free will that humans have, and therefore everything that happens on Earth is a consequence of men, not of the masters.
 
 
 
And Alice Bailey claims that the real reason the Germans lost the Second World War is because they are psychologically and physically unbalanced:
 
« None of the men involved in the direction of the Axis effort in Europe is today normal psychologically; they are all suffering from some form of physical deterioration, and this has been a real factor in their defeat, though one that may be difficult for you to realize. »
(Book “The Externalization of the Hierarchy”, p.491)
 
 
This is also false since Germans are the same as other humans, and in reality the main reason why the Germans lost the Second World War is because the United States became involved in this conflict.
 
 
 
And Alice Bailey got upset at the countries that remained neutral because those countries didn't want to participate in the Second World War, and even she got upset at the Jews for being so hateful:
 
« It is the smug greed of the nations which escaped the war which is hindering progress; it is the devious actions of the Jews and the hatred which they cultivate which tend also to undermine the hope of peace»
(Book “The Problems of Humanity”, p.173)
 
 
And Alice Bailey is bothered by these countries because she claims that World War II was necessary:
 
« It must be grounded in the knowledge that the war—with all its unspeakable horrors, its cruelties and its cataclysmic disasters—was but the broom of the Father of all, sweeping away obstructions in the path of His returning Son. It would have been well-nigh impossible to prepare for the coming in the face of the pre-war conditions. Upon these facts the New Group of World Servers must today take their stand. »
(Book “The Externalization of the Hierarchy”, p.618)
 
 
In other words, for Alice Bailey, the Second World War was very beneficial because it eliminated the obstacles that prevented the coming of the Son of God (that is, the fictional character invented by Leadbeater...)
 
And it makes me want to ask Alice Bailey:
 
And given that more than 80 years have passed, and more than 60 million people died in this Second World War, and there have already been a multitude of changes that have occurred, then why the Lord Christ-Maitreya still not worthy of taking a plane to come visit the West?
 
Is he having problems with his passport?
 
Or does it require more killings, more changes and more years to finally get motivated about making this trip?
 
And yourself Alice Bailey said that when “the time He comes, television will have been perfected and He will then be seen, by its means, from even the most distant spot on earth”.
 
So why not better the Lord Christ-Maitreya send his message through social networks and thus save himself having to make this journey!
 
 
(I'm being sarcastic.)
 
 
 
 
 
 
THE ATOMIC BOMB
 
For Alice Bailey, the atomic bomb is the most spiritually important event that has arisen since the appearance of humanity:
 
« I would like at this time to touch upon the greatest spiritual event which has taken place since the fourth kingdom of nature, the human kingdom, appeared. I refer to the release of atomic energy, as related in the newspapers this week, August 6, 1945, in connection with the bombing of Japan. »
(Book “The Externalization of the Hierarchy”, p.491)
 
 
If for Alice Bailey a weapon of mass destruction is the most important thing that has emerged spiritually during all the development of humans, I feel that Alice Bailey is madness.
 
 
 
And also Alice Bailey said that the atomic bomb was secretly made by the Masters of Wisdom:
 
« The atomic bomb emerged from a first ray Ashram, working in conjunction with a fifth ray group; and from the long range point of view, its intent was and is purely beneficent. »
(Book “The Externalization of the Hierarchy”, p.548)
 
 
Which is completely false since the masters seek to develop love between humans, not destruction.
 
Alice Bailey has already forgotten the words of Jesus who recommended forgiving your enemies, doing the good, and not doing to others what you would not want them to do to yourself.
 
But for Alice Bailey, it was very positive that the United States exploded its two atomic bombs on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, thereby causing the death of 250’000 Japanese and 130’000 wounded:
 
« This destruction and the consequent release of their imprisoned souls, is a necessary happening; it is the justification of the use of the atomic bomb upon the Japanese population. »
(Book “The Externalization of the Hierarchy”, p.496)
 
 
I wonder how happy Alice Bailey would have been if those atomic bombs had killed her three daughters, her grandchildren and her husband...
 
 
 
 
 
 
A WORLD TOTALITARISM
 
And Alice Bailey also affirms that the atomic bomb will serve to establish a New World Order:
 
« The atomic bomb will change the human way of life and inaugurate the New Age in which we will no longer have civilizations (and their emerging cultures) but rather a world culture and an emerging civilization, thus demonstrating the true synthesis that underlies humanity. »
(Book “The Externalization of the Hierarchy”, p.548)
 
 
And Alice Bailey affirms that this New World Order has to be led by the United Nations and that this organization is the one that has to have control of nuclear energy:
 
« It is up to the United Nations to protect this released energy so that it is not misused or prostituted for selfish ends and purely material purposes. ... But my brothers, men will fight to prevent it; reactionary groups in all countries will neither recognize the need nor desire this new world order. »
(Book “The Externalization of the Hierarchy”, p.499)
 
 
And Alice Bailey wants the United Nations also control the atomic bomb and use it against countries that oppose it:
 
« The atomic bomb does not belong to the three nations who perfected it and who own the secrets at present—the United States of America, Great Britain and Canada. It belongs to the United Nations for use (or let us rather hope, simply for threatened use) when aggressive action on the part of any nation rears its ugly head. »
(Book “The Externalization of the Hierarchy”, p.549)
 
 
But since Alice Bailey also wants to return to a theocratic government:
 
« The long divorce between religion and politics must end. »
(Book “The Reappearance of Christ”, Chapter 2)
 
 
I don't want to imagine the horror it would be to have a government leaded by religious fanatics who would control the entire planet and who would have atomic bombs.
 
Alice Bailey was really madness!
 
 
 
 
 
 
THE HIDDEN BOOK OF ALICE BAILEY
 
There is a book titled “Between War and Peace” that Alice Bailey published in 1942, but since then the Lucis Trust foundation (which is the organization in charge of disseminating Alice Bailey's teachings) does not want to know anything about the existence of this book.
 
Which is very disconcerting because this organization does greatly promote Alice Bailey's other books, but the Lucis Trust says nothing about this book.
 
And I suspect that this organization acts this way because in this book Alice Bailey has to say many more aberrations that the Lucis Trust does not want the public to know about.
 
 
 
 
 
 
CONCLUSION
 
If Alice Bailey's defenders would start to study more carefully what Alice Bailey wrote, then they would stop idolizing her.
