There had been <a href="https://blog.good-will.ch/WordPress/2017/07/04/group-life-in-billerbeck-germany/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">5 group lives</a> with <a href="https://worldteachertrust.org/en/web/master/kpk" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Master KPK</a> in this hotel. Now Sri Guru Prasad, the son of<a href="https://worldteachertrust.org/en/web/master/kpk" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> </a>Master KPK, came from India for this year&#8217;s May Call celebration together with Ramana, who already had accompanied Sri Kumar during many of his tours to the West.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We drove up from Switzerland one day before the start of the seminar. It was a very hot day with partly heavy traffic. We stayed overnight in the house of good friends in Münster, Doris and Günter. On the way to the seminar centre, I visited with them the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Ludger_Church,_Billerbeck" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">St. Ludger Cathedral</a> in Billerbeck. It is at this place that <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludger" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">my patron saint</a> died in 809. And 50 years ago, I spend 4 years of my student times 2 villages from Billerbeck away.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The huge hotel and seminar center is beautifully located on a little hill surrounded by old beech woods &#8211; very nice for little promenades and exchanges with friends.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">There were about 125 group members mainly from Germany and Spain &#8211; and some, like me, from Switzerland, Austria, Belgium and France. the group life started with a little thanksgiving candle ceremony in memory of Master Kumar and his wife <a href="https://worldteachertrust.org/_media/pdf/en/a_mother_to_many.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kumari</a>.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">After welcome greetings, Guru Prasad presented the topic he chose for the seminar, &#8220;Transcending of Death&#8221; on the basis of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katha_Upanishad" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Katha Upanish</a> &#8211; a very profound teaching: the story of the child Nachiketa coming to Yama, the Lord of Death and enquiring about reality &#8211; the eternal and the transient. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Guru Prasad elaborated the topic very well during the seminar. Especially fascinating were the explanations on working with respiration and pulsation for opening the petals of the inner lotuses and the sounds related to these petals. I decided not to take notes during this seminar, unlike I had done in earlier seminars of Master KPK, but to dive into the teachings. </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Gemini is an air sign. The element of air is the fourth element, which enables the fourth kingdom &#8211; the human kingdom &#8211; to rise above matter and enter into infinity: the Kingdom of God. The Gemini Full Moon is called the Christ Full Moon, as <a href="https://worldteachertrust.org/de/web/basics/lord_maitreya" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Lord Maitreya</a>, whom we know in the Eastern tradition as the Christ, was born during the hours of the Gemini Full Moon in the incarnation when he became the World Teacher. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As for the new groups, the Gemini Full Moon is presided over today by <a href="https://esotericstudies.net/master-djwhal-khul-and-alice-bailey/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Master Djwhal Khul</a>, whilst Christ presides over the Leo Full Moon. The Leo Full Moon is the future festival at which the emphasis lies on the retreat into the heart. Master Djwhal Khul is the spokesperson for the Hierarchy for the benefit of the workers of Goodwill. Through him and his Ashram, knowledge is passed on for the benefit of humanity.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Full Moon meditations are becoming increasingly popular. The moonlight is very beneficial during the Full Moon time and also the two nights preceding the Full Moon and the two nights after the Full Moon. During this period, the Moon shines brightly reflecting the sunlight most intensely. The reflected light enables finer transformations of the mental layers and tissues.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">It is important to perform Full Moon meditations during these five days. <a href="https://worldteachertrust.org/en/web/basics/the_kumaras_2_-_sanat_kumara" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Sanat Kumara</a>, the Lord of the Planet, is also in deep contemplation during the time around the Full Moon in order to spread the radiance of the moonlight for the benefit of the Earth and the living beings on our planet.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The image depicts how, during this time, the Full Moon energies pour in and are distributed across the planet by Sanat Kumara. We can imagine the effulgence of the Full Moon and <a href="https://worldteachertrust.org/en/web/meditation/aligning_to_shambala" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Shambala</a> entering our central column and touching the centres in the spine.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">When we connect with this awareness in the Full Moon meditations, our body of Light is strengthened. We can receive the blessings and power of Shambala and progress on the path more easily.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">8th of May, we celebrate the &#8220;White Lotus Day&#8221;, in remembrance of Helena P. Blavatsky, the great groundbreaker of the Aquarian Age. On this day, Madam HPB passed over in the year 1891 and attained a permanent place in the Ashram of a Grand Master in the Himalayas. Masters themselves declared this day as &#8220;White Lotus Day&#8221; because she was a highly pure soul and therefore compared to a white lotus. It is said that at the time when she was in a body, there was no other human being as pure as her.</p>


<div class="wp-block-image">
<figure class="aligncenter size-full"><a href="https://blog.good-will.ch/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/hpb_2022_web.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="450" height="589" src="https://blog.good-will.ch/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/hpb_2022_web.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-615714" srcset="https://blog.good-will.ch/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/hpb_2022_web.jpg 450w, https://blog.good-will.ch/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/hpb_2022_web-229x300.jpg 229w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px" /></a></figure>
</div>


<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Through her, the Masters brought down grand wisdom which was not available to the public. Until then, the <a href="https://worldteachertrust.org/en/web/publications/the-seven-waves-of-life" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">wisdom of cosmogenesis and anthropogenesis</a> was present only in manuscripts in some hidden caves of the planet. HPB told the whole story of how evolution happens, how this planet was formed and how our bodies were formed. She cleared away lot of wrong propaganda and as a result, she faced a lot of opposition and criticism in life but she did not care. She worked towards the establishment of Truth and Divine Wisdom on the planet. It is considered a highly difficult task in the dark age of Kali. People tried to defame her a lot and even kill her, since they couldn&#8217;t counter her with their arguments.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Madam HPB used to help many of those who came to her seeking advice. She always worked to fulfil the Plan coming from the Masters of Wisdom. <a href="https://worldteachertrust.org/en/web/publications/teachings-of-master-morya" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Master Morya</a> called her as &#8220;the only white lotus we have in our pond.&#8221; It was to indicate how pure, how compassionate and how self-offering she was.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Master KPK on Vaisakh Full Moon, 29 April 2018:</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today is the grand festival of Vaisakh and we are now in the auspicious hours of full moon which goes on till tomorrow morning. I briefly gave the significance of Vaisakh Full moon today morning after the fire ritual. On this full moon day, Sage Veda Vyasa was born. Gautama Buddha was also born on this full moon day. Adi Shankaracharya initiated his grand work on this full moon day. The great composer Annamacharya was also born on this day. This day is a day of festival for the whole planet. On this night, a grand gathering of all the Masters and Mahatmas, who have been directing and guiding the humanity in the path of evolution, happens in the Vaisakh Valley in the Himalayan Mountain region. They gather in synthesis with <a href="https://worldteachertrust.org/en/web/publications/teachings-of-sanat-kumara" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Lord Sanat Kumara</a> to receive the Divine Plan for the year. This Vaisakh Valley is present in the region north to <a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?search=Kailash&amp;title=Special%3AMediaSearch&amp;type=image" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kailash Mountain</a>. The Masters who receive the plan work out the plan meticulously for the rest of the year. Lord Maitreya stands as the World Teacher presiding over the group of Masters.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So, when we all go into sleep tonight, recollect the Masters of Wisdom to receive their blessings and also to get in tune with the Divine plan. In fact, we should recollect them every night but tonight is most special.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Taurus is an earth sign. People born under Taurus look for experiences to fulfil their desires and aspirations. Earth is of dense matter. Venus is subtle matter; she is the ruler of Taurus. Venus brings Light from the higher circles to Earth and helps us to transcend Earth&#8217;s dense matter. Taurus brings in subtle energies from the most high regions through the sunrays. The star Aldebaran (Rohini in Sanskrit) which is also called the Eye of the Bull, or the third eye, transmits most powerful rays, which help us transform and transcend ignorance and limitations. Shankaracharya and Gautama Buddha are outstanding examples of this ascent. Both were born in the month of Taurus.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The sun sign Taurus initiates the expression of the annual plan, which was received in Aries as a seed impulse in <a href="https://worldteachertrust.org/en/web/meditation/aligning_to_shambala" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Shambala</a>. At the time of the Taurus full moon, when the Moon is in the lunar constellation Vaisakha, the Word expresses itself as a fresh impulse for life on Earth. Therefore, this full moon is called the Vaisakha Festival.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The seed word is perceived and received by the Seers and Masters in order to initiate the disciples in the following month of Gemini. The Hierarchy initiates those persons who work with the inspiration of the Divine.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The manner in which divine actions are carried out in the world is represented by various symbols. Shambala stands for the divine that has manifested itself on our planet. This is represented by a circle with a centre point.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The entry of the personality into a connection with the Divine is described in the scriptures by the symbol of the point and equilateral triangle within a circle. The symbol of the point in the circle with a downward-pointing triangle represents how divine actions are carried out in the world.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">When works of goodwill are expressed in the world, this is represented by a circle connected to a triangle and superimposed on a square, which symbolises the objective world. Through a deep understanding of these symbols, we can visualise the path to Shambala.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The <a href="https://ludgerphilips.org/gallery/images-of-synthesis/aquarius/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"></a><a href="https://ludgerphilips.org/gallery/images-of-synthesis/taurus/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Images of Synthesis for the month of Taurus</a> illustrate the related symbolism. You find there all previous Taurus paintings with detailed explanations in four languages (en/de/es/fr). You can also <a href="https://ludgerphilips.org/about/images-for-print/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">download print-versions for free</a>.
