The New Group of World Servers

"Out of the medley of ideas, beliefs and systems in the world-political, economic, social and religious -- two emerging patterns can be recognised. First, those people who, clinging to reactionary methods of finding and expressing truth, prefer obedience to authority to clear thinking and the self-imposed guidance of their own soul."

"Second, those who, while affirming the fundamental truths by which humanity has evolved, are sensitive to soul impression, and recognise that response to human need and spiritual unfoldment... They belong to no one race, colour or creed and realise that separative, competitive methods cause conflict and prevent the establishing of right human relations."

"The New Group of World Servers is not an organisation. It has no headquarters, president, list of officers or members...."

Who are They?

"Every man and woman in every country who is working to heal the breaches between people... to foster the sense of mutual interrelation and interdependence....

"The New Group of World Servers are gathered from all branches of human enterprise.... There are scientists... educators... churchmen and religious leaders.... These workers emphasise the points of contact and not the points of difference....

"...they heal differences and recognise the universality of truth....

"The New Group of World Servers ...  will cultivate the spirit of co-operation, utilising every opportunity to emphasize the brotherhood of nations, the unity of faith, and economic interdependence. ...

"They can be regarded as the embodiment of the emerging kingdom of God on earth ... this kingdom is not a Christian kingdom or an earthly government. It is a grouping of all those who – belonging as they do to every world religion... are free from the spirit of hatred and separativeness...."

The Immediate World Problem

"The demand, on every hand, is to change the old order which has failed and to bring in a new era of economic comfort and peaceful living."

Who is to Solve it?

"People in the world at this time can be divided into four groups.....

1. First the uninformed masses.
2. Second, the middle classes.
3. Third, the thinkers everywhere.
4. Fourth, the New Group of World Servers. These are the people who are building the new world order.... Their characteristics are synthesis, inclusiveness, intellectuality, and fine mental development.... They recognise no authority save that of their own souls. They make no clamour about their own ideas, discoveries and theories, but because they are so inclusive in their outlook and so wide in their interpretation of truth they see the hand of God in all happenings...

"Behind this four-fold division of humanity stand those Enlightened Ones whose right and privilege it is to watch over human evolution and to guide the destinies of men. In the West we call them Christ and His disciples. In the theologies of the East they are called by many names. They are also known as the Agents of God, or the Hierarchy of liberated souls, who seek ceaselessly to aid and help humanity. This they do through the implanting of ideas in the minds of the world thinkers, so that these ideas in due time receive recognition and eventually become controlling factors in human life....

"Through the evolutionary presentation of ideas, there is a steady march towards a liberty of thought through the method of experiment...."

There is a Plan for Humanity

"The determination of the spiritual Hierarchy of the planet to train the minds of men more rapidly and to build towards a more synthetic unity brought about a decision which involved the formation of group units, and the emergence of those groups of workers and thinkers who, through their activities, have so largely governed and moulded our world for the past three or four centuries...."

Immediate Objectives of the Plan

"To raise the level of human consciousness ....

"...the growth of the group idea with a consequent general emphasis upon group good, group understanding, group interrelation and group goodwill."

Functions of the New Group of World Servers

"To hold the vision of the Plan before the eyes of men....

"To act as an intermediate group between the [occult] Hierarchy and humanity, receiving light and power and then using both of these, under the inspiration of love, to build the new world of tomorrow."

"It is a group therefore without a terminology or bible of any kind; it has no creed nor any dogmatic formulations of truth...
