Help build
the New World!
Dear fellow man,
you find yourself in a world full of misery and
suffering, selfishness and injustice, greed, violence and war. You sense:
Things cannot go on as they are, neither in the private nor in the public
sphere. You ask yourself desperately:
“What can I little midget do
to make the hopeless state of the planet a little better?”
We invite you to help build a
New World in Tabenisi!
“What is your concept?”
1.
Transformation into the New Man
Nicholas
Roerich ‘Lama’
We Tabenisians
transform into men of the future.
1st Guiding
Thought:
The New Construction
requires New Men!
You must be the change you
wish to see in the world. (Gandhi)
As long as people remain the
same hard-hearted egotists as before, they will pervert every new social order,
no matter how good it is, namely abuse it for their selfish purposes – and
everything will remain the same.
“What does this new species
look like?”
The man of the future is an
immortal being of spirit.
He has realised that his true self is not the
perishable body, but his soul which lives forever.
Immortal man—is this not
worthy of the future? (AY 553)
Immortal, he is invulnerable,
invincible, fearless and completely free.
He is also full of vitality, joy of being, light
and love. Above all, he is completely selfless. Only once we have truly
acquired this quality can we set about building the world of the future.
“How do we achieve this
transformation?”
Guiding Thought:
The new man of spirit
is brought about by spiritual
exercises
You transfer your consciousness into your
Eternal Individuality. You no longer think:
“I am a body which also has a
soul.”
but:
“I am a soul which also has a
body.”
You learn to think, feel, speak and act the way
your immortal soul – or your heart – wants you to.
“I reveal the divine only.”
Guiding Thought:
With this superior mental
attitude
you appear in everyday
earthly life
Even in the greatest difficulties, sufferings, temptations
and hardships. In this way, you turn from a material to a spiritual creature.
Then you may proudly proclaim:
Here is the New Man!
This is easy to say, but difficult to realise:
It is a long way from the mere intellectual insight that a non-material being
is invulnerable and therefore need not fear anyone or anything, to a king of
the spirit who actually neither feels nor shows hurt
or fear, even in the most terrible situation. This is why the ancient sages
advise:
Become who you are!
2.
Establishment of Outposts of the New World
Nicholas
Roerich ‘Holy City’
In former times, spiritual
people went to monasteries if they wanted to lead a holy life. (Nicholas Roerich ‘And we bring the Light’)
Those days are over. Today, the task of a
spiritual warrior is a different one:
Sanctify everyday life!
Transform your immediate
surroundings into a sanctuary!
“How do I achieve this
practically?”
Guiding Thought:
We Tabenisians
create
outposts of the world of the
future
Each of us at that place where he is at the moment, where he is living and working. Here, the way
of life, the spiritual order of Shambhala becomes material reality. Here at
least truth, justice, beauty and love reign.
“What does the world of the
future look like?”
In your realm there is no need and no
suffering, no selfishness, greed and violence, no poverty and no unemployment.
You proudly prove to humanity:
Here is the New World!
Come, naked ones, and we will
clothe you; come, little ones, and we will raise you; come, mute ones, and we
will give you speech; come, blind ones, for with us you shall see the destined
realm. (Leaves of Morya’s Garden II, 146)
These efforts, still isolated for the time
being, will one day unite to form larger alliances which will serve as seeds of
the coming World Community.
The experiment of bringing
together hearts over long distances is waiting for workers to carry it out.
(Heart 339)
Thus, beginning with a seed, the
construction of a community can result in the
Community of the World. (Infinity II, 283)
The more co-workers join us and participate in
the ‘Experiment Immortality’, the sooner the world of the future will emerge by
itself.
Help build My Country! (Leaves
of Morya’s Garden II, 231)
