Serving Humanity

by Alice A. Bailey

Service can be briefly described as the spontaneous effect of soul contact. This contact is so definite and fixed that the life of the soul can pour through into the instrument – the personality – which the soul must perforce use upon the physical plane. This book contains a comprehensive collection of quotations to stimulate thought and increase our understanding of service and its vital importance at the present time.

About the author

Pease note: this is a different author from Alice Bailey.

Alice A. Bailey (1880-1949) was an English esoteric practitioner and writer.
At the age of 35, she entered the Theosophical Society center in Los Angeles (USA), at the Pacific Grove Theosophical Lodge. In 1919, Bailey (39 years old) severed her ties to the Theosophical Society and began to write texts that he claimed were dictated telepathically by a certain "Tibetan," or "D. K. ». She published those texts under the title Human and Solar Initiation. There she made known the existence of the spiritual hierarchy, which Madame Blavatsky had already spread, although not in an orderly way.
She later revealed that the Tibetan D.K. was the master Djwal Khul. She wrote using the teacher's name for 30 years, from 1919 until her death in 1949.

Reviews

[Joan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Probably my next best favorite book after the Bible. When reading books during a Spiritual Search and working as a Life Server, this book clarifies and gives true meaning to why we are here and that we come in groups to learn lessons and work together on our journeys.

This is the common handbook for converting a free government to one run by elitists. It is a well-laid out, very nice-sounding design, one taught from in most universities that has promoted the liberalism that brought our nation to the precipice it nearly went over before the recent election. My dad showed me this a few years after he showed me the Communist Manifesto and the similarities are striking. It's deceptive, because it's intended to be, and urges the mind-melding of the masses exactly the way it was done to Germany before they voted for Hitler in a 98% landslide vote. Until that election, the masses were educated with all these same "beliefs" as preparation for their support of his ideals. He was a gifted orator, as much as Alice Bailey is a gifted writer. But the ultimate goal is not good, but evil.
