THE LEGEND OF WESAK
In the Himal yica mountain range there is a high valley, 390 miles west of Lhasa and not far from Nepal. It is surrounded by high mountains that are covered by trees and shrubs. The valley is oblong, and to the north it has a narrow passage in front of which is a huge white-gray rock and veined by a bright substance. It is almost twelve feet long by six feet wide and about three feet high.
The valley is really high plains covered by a rough, dark green grass, like a huge carpet. On the north side of the plain there is a stream that crosses a canyon full of pine trees, and advances a few miles until it disappears into a clear blue lake.
Around the valley there are no lodgings. A Buddhist temple and three shacks can be seen near him, in ruinous condition.
A few days before the full moon of Taurus, which usually falls in May, you can see shops on the hills and near the river. They increase in number when the full moon approaches.
People from surrounding cities, transhumant tribes, disciples, lamas, and great initiates. They arrive there for a beautiful and sacred feast that takes place on the full moon of Taurus.
On the day of the full moon, the entire crowd wears clean clothes, predominantly white, and meets in the valley, occupying the southeast part and freeing the northeast part for the Great. They sit on floor mats or blankets, in an orderly manner; They sit in great silence, reverence and meditation.
Near the time of the full moon, the Great begin to arrive with their white robes to meet their disciples and friends to exchange blessings, smiles and a few words of joy.
Shortly after the three Great Lords arrive, in their enteric bodies, and they are facing the huge rock, facing the north. They are the Manu, the Christ and the teacher R. When they are there, in deep silence, all the Masters and Great gather together behind these three Lords, according to their rank.
At a given signal, all these Great ones form three concentric circles and begin to sing. When the song deepens and takes on more rhythm, the etheric visitors materialize and a glorious figure becomes visible in the center of the circles. They call him with several names. They call him Buddha Maitreya, Bodhisattva, or the Christ, the Lord of Peace and Love. He is the Master of all the Masters who form the Planetary Hierarchy to carry out the Divine purpose of this Planet, leading to the humanity of darkness in the light, from the unreal to the real, from death to immortality, from chaos to beauty.
The Christ pairs with a pure white mantle, his hair falls down his shoulders in waves. He has the rod of power in his hand, which The Ancient of Days gave him for this occasion. No Master can touch it except The Christ, the Master of all the Masters. At each end of the rod there is a large diamond grip that radiates a blue and orange light of great beauty. The Initiates who are in the three circles face him in the center, and when He becomes more visible, they all bow down before Him and sing a Mantram of salutation and affirmation.
Then these circles become a single circle and form a cross, in whose center is The Christ. Here again the song, touches the hearts and souls of those present, and descends more joy, peace and blessing on the crowd.
The next movement is a triangle within the circle, at whose apex is The Christ. He is standing near the rock and places his stick on it. In the Rock you can see a glass bowl, with golden ornaments and garlands of Lotus flowers cover the Rock and hang from the corners.
Then they perform another movement that is a triangle superimposed with three ovals that are intertwined in the center of the triangle where the Christ is.
The next movement is a six-pointed star, then the star of Christ the Pentagram. Here Christ is at the apex, near the rock; on the right end, El Manu; on the left tip The Lord of Civilization, Master R; a Great Being is in the center, and other Great Beings in the lower points of the star. Here the song creates tension in the crowd, and Christ, taking his rod from the Rock says:
“PRESTO, LORD, COME.”
Then, put His rod on the Rock again for a few moments before the full moon, and the eyes of all present turn to the Rock.
A few seconds after the full moon a speck of light appears in the blue sky that slowly gets closer, becomes clear and transforms into the radiant figure of Lord Gautama Buddha, sitting cross-legged, in pure yellow dress and flooded with a imposing beauty of light and color, His right hand raised in blessing. When he reaches a point on the Rock eclipsing the three Lords who are now near the Rock, the Great Invocation is toned by the Christ, and all present fall prostrate, touching the earth with their foreheads.
This Great Invocation creates a great current of energy that crosses the hearts of the aspirants, Disciples and Initiates and reaches God. That is the holiest moment of the year, the moment when humanity and divinity make contact. At the exact time of the full moon, the Enlightened one passes to Christ the energy of the first ray that Christ receives and changes at will-of-good.
Christ who is the Great Celebrant, extends his hands and takes the bowl, lifts it over his head and puts it back on the Rock. Then, the Masters sing sacred hymns, and the Great Enlightened One, after blessing the crowd, slowly disappears into space.
Christ distributes the holy water to the Initiates and all who are present in the valley. They arrive in procession, and fill their small containers and leave in peace.
Thus once a year, on the Taurus Full Moon, humanity is charged with energies of the Great Dawn, and an extraordinary opportunity is presented to all disciples to expand their conscience and consequently serve their fellowmen.
