Agni Yoga - The Karma of Nations and Its Leaders

by Robert Wilkinson It’s been 6 years since I gave you insights about the karma of nations as offered in the Agni Yoga works. Having been a fan for over 40 years, I can state that each paragraph in every one of those works is a condensed dose of "straight knowledge" that cuts to the beauty of one of the infinite facets of the Jewel of Truth. Today I found something written 90 years ago about national karma. This piece comes from the book titled Fiery World - Book 1 written in 1933: 144. Much is going on roundabout and especially where there is a Magnet. The Teacher forewarns that nowadays the most unusual conflicts may be expected, so crowded have the lower strata of the Subtle World become. People have decided to fill the Subtle World with great numbers that are arriving before their normal time. No one has thought what the consequences will be for the people themselves. It is impossible to slaughter millions of people with impunity, without setting up a most grave Karma. Even if the karma is not a personal one, so much the worse, because it increases the Karma of nations and of the whole planet. What has been said about peace-makers is the more correct, since because of them there arises a proper attitude toward the future. The lower strata of the Subtle World must not be filled with the horrors of uncompleted karma. One should not think that this will have no reaction upon the condition of the planet. But the principal cause is that no one thinks about the Subtle World at all. The isolation is most frightful; precisely the dark force exults at each alienation. While there are many passages referencing the karma of nations and how it relates to individuals, this one paragraph jumped out at me. Just because you’re sensing tense psychic energy doesn’t mean anything’s wrong with you. You’re just picking up the global tension. This comes from Brotherhood written in 1937: 126. Never before have we held discourses under such tension. Never has Earth been so enshrouded in brown gas. Never has the planet been so flooded with hatred. It is unthinkable not to sense the convulsions of nations; therefore, when I speak about care toward health I have in mind the unusual state of affairs throughout the world. It is regrettable that the nations do not think about the condition of the world. Much energy is being wasted. Do not think that the special tension comes only from private circumstances; it vibrates in conformity with the conditions in the world. The psychic energy is tensed, ready for both reception and repulsion. The spirit senses thoughts manifested in the Subtle World. And in the piece I gave you in 2017, I referenced this gem from the book titled Hierarchy, written in 1931: 417. Each spirit creates its own karma. Each nation builds its own Karma. Certainly nations are looking for a leader, because even an established prestige cannot sustain those people who think erroneously. Neither gold nor vulgar, glamorous names, nor piles of inapplicable counsels will save a nation. Verily, the fiery thought, the fiery spirit of the leader will provide new ways. Therefore, let the star of the Spiritual Leader shine brightly at the time of cosmic perturbations. Thus, let the great Realm of Light rise upon the ruins of the old world. As I gave you then, we are ALL "Spiritual Leaders" because we all are consciously connected to the One Life/Light that shines eternally. Nothing can stop our Light from shining.
