Externalising the heart of NGWS

The "New Group of World Servers" (NGWS) refers to a spiritual concept, popularized by Alice Bailey, of globally dispersed individuals working consciously or unconsciously to uplift humanity and foster unity, bridging human activity with higher spiritual realms, acting as "forerunners" for a new age of goodwill and right relations, present in all fields of life from science to art, united by purpose but without formal structure.
The concept of "externalising the heart of NGWS (the New Group of World Servers) as the twelve-petaled lotus" refers to the Anahata, or Heart Chakra, in spiritual traditions. This symbol, a lotus with twelve petals, represents the process of cultivating specific divine qualities or overcoming certain mental fluctuations to achieve a state of unconditional love, balance, and compassion.
The "heart" of the New Group of World Servers (NGWS) lies in conscious, creative meditation and invocation of spiritual energies for humanity's betterment, focused on goodwill, unity, and building a new civilization based on higher principles, acting as a bridge between the spiritual Hierarchy and the world, unorganized but united by selfless service and love for all life. Its core is the selfless, intelligent love for humanity as a whole, expressed through synchronized meditation and invocation to channel divine energies for world transformation.
Symbolism and Meaning
The twelve-petaled lotus is primarily associated with the Anahata Chakra (Heart Center), located in the center of the chest. It acts as a bridge between the lower, material chakras and the upper, spiritual chakras.
Balance and Harmony: The central symbol within the lotus is a six-pointed star (hexagram), formed by two intersecting triangles. One points upward, symbolizing masculine energy (Shiva, consciousness), and the other downward, representing feminine energy (Shakti, creative power/matter). Their union signifies the balance and integration of these opposing forces within the heart.
"Unstruck Sound": The Sanskrit word Anahata translates to "unstruck" or "unbeaten," referring to a pure, cosmic sound produced without physical contact, which a practitioner can hear when the chakra is awakened.
Divine Qualities/Virtues: The twelve petals are often associated with specific divine virtues or positive human qualities that one aims to embody:
Bliss
Peace
Harmony
Love
Understanding
Empathy
Clarity
Purity
Unity
Compassion
Kindness
Forgiveness
The Process of "Externalisation"
To "externalise the heart" as this symbol means to bring these internal qualities into conscious, outward expression in one's life. This involves practices aimed at balancing the Anahata chakra:
Cultivating Compassion: Engaging in acts of kindness and developing empathy for all beings.
Practicing Forgiveness: Releasing past hurts and resentments to allow emotional energy to flow freely.
Meditation and Visualization: Focusing on the heart center, often while chanting the seed mantra "YAM" (यं), to open and balance the energy flow.
Fostering Healthy Relationships: Building connections based on unconditional love, trust, and mutual respect, free from attachment or possessiveness.
By developing the qualities represented by each petal, an individual can manifest their heart's true, divine potential in the external world, moving beyond self-centeredness and into a state of universal love and service.
TWELVES AND TRIANGLES
Twelves is an advanced meditation practice in group formation, designed for working consciously with the Spiritual Hierarchy. Twelves creates a Vortex of Light that utilises Spiritual energy for transformation. It is an expansion and continuance of the basic esoteric group work of triangles.
Triangles have served and saved humanity for a hundred years. They shall develop and continue as the building block of The Bridge of Light between Shamballa, the Hierarchy and incarnate life in all its forms.
