Portrait of Kuthumi, wearing a brown robe and a fur hat
कुथुमी

दिव्यगुरु कुथुमी पहले दूसरी किरण के चौहान थे। अब ये विश्व शिक्षक ईसा मसीह के कार्यालय में कार्यरत हैं।

ये ब्रदर्स ऑफ द गोल्डन रोब के प्रधानाध्यापक हैं और ज्ञान की किरण पर मौजूद छात्रों को ध्यान की कला और शब्द के विज्ञान में प्रशिक्षित करते हैं ताकि वे अपने चित्त, जीवात्मा के मनोवैज्ञानिक बन सकें।

अवतार

थुटमोस III

फैरो थुटमोस III (१५६७ सी.बी) को सबसे महान ईश्वरदूत और पुजारी माना जाता है। ये कला के पारखी एवं संरक्षक थे और मिस्र साम्राज्य के निर्माण का श्रेय भी इनको ही जाता है। इन्होनें मध्य पूर्व के अधिकांश हिस्से को मिस्र साम्राज्य में शामिल कर इसका विस्तार किया था। माउंट कार्मेल के पास के मैदान पर हुए युद्ध में इनकी जीत सबसे निर्णायक जीत थी। यहां ये लगभग ३३० विद्रोही एशियाई राजकुमारों के गठबंधन को हराने के लिए ये अपनी पूरी सेना को मेगिद्दो दर्रे के संकीर्ण मार्ग से लेकर गए थे। यह एक साहसिक कदम था जिसका सभी उच्चाधिकारियों ने विरोध किया था। परन्तु अपनी योजना के प्रति पूर्णतया आश्वस्त थुटमोस सूर्य देवता अमोन-रा के चित्र को लिए आगे बढ़ते रहे, और विजयश्री प्राप्त की।

पाइथागोरस

छठी शताब्दी बी.सी में ये यूनानी दार्शनिक पाइथागोरस थे। सेमोस द्वीप के निवासी पाइथागोरस को "गोरे बालों वाला सैमियन" भी कहा जाता था। इन्हें अपोलो का पुत्र माना जाता था। युवावस्था में एक बार जब ये ध्यान में थे तो डेमेटर (यूनान में कृषि की देवी जिन्हें धरती की माँ भी कहते हैं) ने इन्हें आतंरिक न्याय के बारे में ज्ञान दिया। इसके बाद से इस ज्ञान का वैज्ञानिक प्रमाण जानने के लिए ये अक्सर पुजारियों और विद्वानों के साथ निर्भीक रूप से चर्चा करते लगे। सत्य की खोज में ये कई स्थानों, जैसे फिलिस्तीन, अरब, और भारत गए। अंततः ये मिस्र के मंदिरों में पहुंचे जहां उन्होंने मेम्फिस के पुजारियों का विश्वास जीता तथा थेब्स नामक शहर में आइसिस (मिस्र की देवी जिन्हें दिव्य माँ भी कहते हैं) के रहस्यों को जानने शिष्यता प्राप्त की।

लगभग ५२९ बीसी के दौरान जब एशिया के एक विजेता कमबाईसिस ने मिस्र पर आक्रमण किया तो पाइथागोरस को बेबीलोन भेज दिया गया। धर्मदूत डैनियल यहाँ पर राजा के मंत्री के पद पर कार्यरत थे। यहां पर धर्मगुरुओं ने उन्हें ईश्वरीय स्वरूप के बारे में शिक्षा दी - यह शिक्षा पहले मूसा को दी गई थी। पारसी पुजारियों मैगी ने उन्हें संगीत, खगोल विज्ञान और आह्वान करने के विज्ञान के बारे में शिक्षा दी। पाइथागोरस यहाँ पर १२ साल रहे जिसके उपरान्त उन्होंने बेबीलोन छोड़ दिया और क्रोटोना में चेलों के एक ब्रदरहुड की स्थापना की। क्रोटना दक्षिणी इटली में स्थित डोरियन का एक व्यस्त बंदरगाह है। यह स्थान श्वेत महासंघ (ग्रेट वाइट ब्रदरहुड) का एक रहस्यवादी विद्यालय (मिस्ट्री स्कूल) है।

क्रोटोना में कुछ चुने गए पुरुषों और स्त्रियों ने सार्वभौमिक कानून की गणितीय अभिव्यक्ति पर आधारित एक दर्शन का अनुसरण किया। यह उनके अनुशासित तरीके के जीवन की लय और सद्भाव एवं संगीत में चित्रित है। पांच साल की कठिन मौन के बाद, पाइथागोरस के "गणितज्ञों" ने अमर होने के लिए नाना प्रकार की दीक्षाओं के माध्यम से अपने हृदय की अंतर्ज्ञानी क्षमताओं का विकास किया। पाइथागोरस के गो”ल्डन वर्सेज में इन्हें “अमरता प्राप्त किये हुए दिव्य ईश्वर, जो अंनश्वर हैं”, कहा गया है।

पाइथागोरस परोक्ष रूप से गुप्त भाषा में व्याख्यान देते थे - उनके शब्दों का सार केवल उच्च श्रेणी के शिष्य ही समझ सकते थे। उनका मानना था कि संख्या ही सृष्टि का रूप है और सार भी। उन्होंने यूक्लिड ज्यामिति के मुख्य भागों की रचना की और कई खगोलीय सिद्धांतो पर काम किया जिन पर बाद में कोपरनिकस ने भी काम किया और कई अवधारणाएं प्रतिपादित कीं। पाइथागोरस से प्रभावित होकर क्रोटोना के लगधग दो हजार नागरिकों ने अपनी पारंपरिक जीवनशैली छोड़ काउंसिल ऑफ़ थ्रीहंड्रेड (Council of Three Hundred) के तहत पायथागॉरियन समुदाय का निर्माण किया। इस काउंसिल ने एक सरकारी, वैज्ञानिक और धार्मिक संस्थान के तरीके से कार्य किया जिसने बाद में मैग्ना ग्रीसिया को काफी प्रभावित किया।

पाइथागोरस बहुत “परिश्रमी पुरुष” थे। वे नब्बे वर्ष के थे जब साईलोन (जिनका दाख़िला रहस्यवादी विद्यालय ने अस्वीकार किया था) ने लोगों को हिंसक अत्याचार को उकसाया। क्रोटोना के प्रांगण में खड़े होकर पढ़ा साईलोन ने पाइथागोरस की एक गुप्त पुस्तक, हिरोस लोगो (पवित्र शब्द), को जोर से पढ़ा, और उनकी लिखी बातों का मज़ाक उड़ाया। जब पाइथागोरस और काउंसिल के चालीस मुख्य सदस्य वहाँ एकत्रित हुए तो साईलोन ने उस इमारत में आग लगा दी। इस आग में दो को छोड़कर सभी सदस्य मारे गए। परिणामस्वरूप पूरा पायथागॉरियन समुदाय तथा उनकी अधिकांश मूल शिक्षाएँ नष्ट हो गईं। फिर भी, "मास्टर" (पाइथागोरस) ने कई दार्शनिकों जैसे प्लेटो, एरिस्टोटल, ऑगस्टीन, थॉमस एक्विनास और फ्रांसिस बेकन को प्रभावित किया है।

बैल्थाज़ार

मुख्य लेख: तीन बुद्धिमान पुरुष

बल्थाजार तीन ज्योतिषियों (खगोल-विद्या विशारद/विशेषज्ञ) में से एक थे जिन्होनें बालक ईसा मसीह की उपस्थिति के तारे का अनुसरण किया था। ऐसा भी कहा जाता है कि कुथुमी एक समय में इथियोपिया के वही राजा थे जिन्होंने अपने क्षेत्र से खूब सारा खज़ाना लाकर ईसा मसीह को दिया था।

असीसी के फ्रांसिस

मुख्य लेख: असीसी के फ्रांसिस

As Francis of Assisi (c. 1181–1226), the divine poverello, he renounced family and wealth and embraced “Lady Poverty,” living among the poor and the lepers, finding unspeakable joy in imitating the compassion of Christ. While kneeling at Mass on the feast of St. Matthias in 1209, he heard the gospel of Jesus read by the priest and the Lord’s command to his apostles, “Go, preach.” Francis left the little church and began evangelizing and converting many. Among them was the noble Lady Clare, who later left her home dressed as the bride of Christ and presented herself to Francis for admittance to the mendicant order.

One of the many legends surrounding the lives of Francis and Clare describes their meal at Santa Maria degli Angeli, where Francis spoke so lovingly of God that all were enraptured in Him. Suddenly the people of the village saw the convent and the woods ablaze. Running hastily to quench the flames, they beheld the little company enfolded in brilliant light with arms uplifted to heaven.

God revealed to Francis the divine Presence in “brother sun” and “sister moon” and rewarded his devotion with the stigmata of Christ crucified—the first saint known to receive them. The prayer of St. Francis is spoken by people of all faiths around the world: “Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace!...”

Shah Jahan

The Taj Mahal

Shah Jahan

As Shah Jahan (1592–1666), Mogul emperor of India, he overthrew the corrupt government of his father, Jahangir, and restored in part the noble ethics of his grandfather Akbar the Great. During his enlightened reign, the splendor of the Mogul court reached its zenith and India entered her golden age of art and architecture. Shah Jahan lavished the imperial treasury on music, paintings, and the construction of awesome monuments, mosques, public buildings and thrones throughout India, some of which may still be seen today.

The famous Taj Mahal, “the miracle of miracles, the final wonder of the world,” was built as a tomb for his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal. She had ruled by his side almost as an equal and died in 1631 giving birth to their fourteenth child. Shah Jahan spared no effort in making the monument “as beautiful as she was beautiful.” It is the symbol of the Mother principle and celebrates his eternal love for Mumtaz.

Koot Hoomi Lal Singh

In his final embodiment, the adept Kuthumi was revered as a Kashmiri brahman, Koot Hoomi Lal Singh (also known also as Koot Hoomi and K.H.) Koot Hoomi led an extremely secluded life, affording but a fragmented record of his words and works. Born in the early nineteenth century, Mahatma Kuthumi was a Punjabi whose family had settled in Kashmir. He attended Oxford University in 1850 and is believed to have contributed “The Dream of Ravan” to The Dublin University Magazine around 1854, prior to returning to his homeland.

The Kashmiri Brahman spent considerable time in Dresden, Würzburg, Nürnberg and at the university of Leipzig, where in 1875 he visited with Dr. Gustav Fechner, the founder of modern psychology. His remaining years were spent in seclusion at his lamasery in Shigatse, Tibet, where his contact with the outside world included didactic writings sent by mail to some of his devoted students. These letters are now on file with the British Museum.

With El Morya, known as the Master M., Kuthumi founded the Theosophical Society in 1875 through Helena P. Blavatsky, commissioning her to write Isis Unveiled and The Secret Doctrine. The purpose of this activity was to reacquaint mankind with the wisdom of the ages that underlies all of the world’s religions, the inner teachings guarded in the mystery schools since the last days of Lemuria and Atlantis. This includes the doctrine of reincarnation—which, we note, Saint Francis preached in the village squares—as well as an understanding of the ascension as the goal of life sought knowingly or unknowingly by every son and daughter of God.

The Theosophical Society has published Kuthumi’s and El Morya’s letters to their students in The Mahatma Letters and other works. Kuthumi ascended at the end of the nineteenth century.

His mission today

World Teacher

Main article: World Teacher

In the line of cosmic peerage, Jesus conferred upon the Ascended Master Kuthumi the office of World Teacher, which position our Lord gave to his disciple to share jointly with himself. The World Teachers Jesus and Kuthumi sponsor every soul seeking reunion with God, tutoring them in the fundamental laws governing the cause/effect sequences of their own karma and teaching them how to come to grips with the day-to-day challenges of their individual dharma, one’s duty to fulfill the Christ potential through the sacred labor.

Master psychologist

Kuthumi is known as the master psychologist, and his assignment is to assist chelas in the resolution of their psychology. On January 27, 1985, he announced a dispensation from Lord Maitreya:

This dispensation is my assignment to work with each one of you individually for your physical health and for the healing of your psychology, that we might swiftly get to the very cause and core of physical as well as spiritual and emotional conditions that there be no more setbacks or indulgences and surely not two steps forward and one step back.[1]

Kuthumi has given a key to understanding our psychology in his teachings on the dweller-on-the-threshold and the electronic belt. The momentums of untransmuted karma in orbit around the “nucleus” of the synthetic self (or carnal mind) form what looks like an “electronic belt” of misqualified energy around the lower portion of man’s physical body.

Diagrammed at the point of the solar plexus, extending downward in a negative spiral to below the feet, this conglomerate of human creation forms a dense forcefield resembling the shape of a kettledrum. Referred to as the realm of the subconscious or the unconscious, the electronic belt contains the records of unredeemed karma from all embodiments. At the eye of this vortex of untransmuted energy is the consciousness of the anti-self personified in the dweller-on-the-threshold, which must be slain before one can attain full Christhood.

The master can better help us if we give his mantra, “I AM Light.” This mantra is for the development of a tremendous momentum of white light and the wisdom of God. It is to bring us to the realization that God can and does dwell within us. When we draw nigh to him, he draws nigh to us, and the angelic hosts also gather for the strengthening of the aura. In his book Studies of the Human Aura, Kuthumi speaks of a threefold exercise using the “I AM Light” mantra that students can give for the purpose of strengthening the sheath of the aura so that they can maintain the consciousness of Christ, of God, of Buddha, of Mother.

I AM Light
By Kuthumi

I AM light, glowing light,
Radiating light, intensified light.
God consumes my darkness,
Transmuting it into light.

This day I AM a focus of the Central Sun.
Flowing through me is a crystal river,
A living fountain of light
That can never be qualified
By human thought and feeling.
I AM an outpost of the Divine.
Such darkness as has used me is swallowed up
By the mighty river of light which I AM.

I AM, I AM, I AM light;
I live, I live, I live in light.
I AM light’s fullest dimension;
I AM light’s purest intention.
I AM light, light, light
Flooding the world everywhere I move,
Blessing, strengthening and conveying
The purpose of the kingdom of heaven.

Kuthumi gives an important key to the spiritual path in his teaching that

... the most important part of any experience you have is not what is flung your way but your reaction to it. Your reaction is the determination of your place on the ladder of attainment. Your reaction enables us to act or not to act. Your reaction to anything or everything shows us the fruit that has ripened in you from all of our prior teaching and loving and support as well as discipline....

Thus, from this hour, if you will call to me and make a determination in your heart to transcend the former self, I will tutor you both through your own heart and any messenger I may send your way. Therefore, heed the voices—not astral but physical—and watch the course of events.... Thus, I come in many guises.[2]

Retreats

Cathedral of Nature

Main article: Cathedral of Nature

Kuthumi is hierarch of the Temple of Illumination in Kashmir, which is also known as the Cathedral of Nature.

Kuthumi’s Retreat at Shigatse, Tibet

From the focus of his etheric retreat at Shigatse, Tibet, Kuthumi plays celestial music on his organ to those who are making the transition called “death” from the physical plane to higher octaves. So tremendous is the cosmic radiation that pours through that organ—because it is keyed to the music of the spheres and an organ-focus in the City Foursquare—that souls are drawn out of the astral plane as if following a pied piper.

In this way, thousands are drawn to the retreats of the masters by the great love of this Brother of the Golden Robe. Those who are able to see Kuthumi at the moment of their passing often find peace in the certain knowing that they have seen the master Jesus, so closely do Jesus and Kuthumi resemble one another in their adoration and manifestation of the Christ.
