The Rays and the Initiations (A Treatise on the Seven Rays, Vol. V)

The first part of this volume contains the Fourteen Rules for Group Initiation, an extension of the teachings given in the book, Initiation, Human and Solar, on the Fourteen Rules for Applicants. The second part of this volume is concerned with the nine initiations by which the disciple progressively liberates himself from the various forms of our planetary life. The possibility of group initiation is a development of the present era; this book emphasises the growth of the group idea - group service, group responsibility, group initiation and group absorption into the centre Hierarchy.
