Mantram of Unification

The Tibetan Master on several occasions (1) proposed to his disciples the daily use of the Mantram of Unity or Unification, pointing out that it was “a modernised and mystically worded version of the one which was used widely in Atlantean days during the period of the ancient conflict” (2) and that “These words may seem inadequate, but said with power and an understanding of their significance and with the potency of the mind and heart behind them, they can prove unbelievably potent in the life of the one who says them. They will produce also an effect in his environment, and the accumulated effects in the world, as you spread the knowledge of the formula, will be great and effective. It will change attitudes, enlighten the vision and lead the aspirant to fuller service and to a wider cooperation based upon sacrifice.” (3)
Here is the text of the mantram:

The sons of men are one and I am one with them.
I seek to love, not hate;
I seek to serve and not exact due service;
I seek to heal, not hurt.
Let pain bring due reward of light and love.
Let the soul control the outer form, and life and all events,
And bring to light the love that underlies the happenings of the time.
Let vision come and insight.
Let the future stand revealed.
Let inner union demonstrate and outer cleavages be gone.
Let love prevail. Let all men love.

A key element of this mantram is the call for Union, Love, Harmony as fundamental ingredients not only to resolve conflicts, individual and collective, but to initiate and consolidate that process of Unification (closely related to the Law of Attraction and the Principle of Cohesion, as well as to the construction of the antahkarana) towards which the whole of creation tends, at different levels.

“In the eternal creation of life, the law of Unity acts. The cosmic creation moves onward like a fiery, manifested edict—an edict which destines unification; an edict which destines a designation; an edict which destines the replacing of one by the other; and edict which destines a crowning; an edict which destines immortality; an edict which destines life to each atom; an edict which destines the approach of new energy; an edict which destines the New Era.” (4)

“It is the aim of all things to unite; approximation, unification, a simulta-neous attraction between two or more is ever to be seen as a governing principle, whether we look at the sex problem, or whether it demonstrates in business organisation, in scientific development, in manufacture, or in politics. Well might we say that the At-one-ment of the many separated is the keynote of our system.” (5)

“Upon Oneness stands the entire affirmed Be-ness. The operating law is so stupendous that all cosmic construction rests upon this principle. In every manifestation this law assembles the parts, uniting those which belong to each other. This great law is the Crown of Cosmos.” (6)

The entire universe thus tends to re-establish that state of Oneness which, in order to allow Manifestation, had momentarily resolved itself into a myriad of individualised elements or those in the process of individualisation; the divine nature, and the intent that reveals it, “is the tendency to synthesis. This tendency runs through all nature, all consciousness, and is life itself. The motivating urge of God, His outstanding desire, is towards union and at-one-ment. It was this tendency or quality which Christ sought both to reveal and to dramatise for humanity. (…) But the synthesis of Deity, His tendency to blend and fuse, is far more inclusive and universal than any possible expression in the human kingdom, which is, after all, but a small part of the greater whole. Man is not all that is possible, nor the consummation of God’s thought. The sweep of this instinct to synthesis underlies all universes, constellations, solar systems, planets, and kingdoms in nature, as well as the activity aspect and achievement of man, the individual. This instinct is the governing principle of consciousness itself, and consciousness is the psyche or soul, producing psychical life; it is awareness—sub-human, human and divine.” (7)

The process of Unification, subtending the goal of Oneness, which leads, according to the suggestions of the etymon, “to lay as the foundation the fire of the One” and which the Lambdoma Synthesis, in its Vortex 6.1, appropriately defines as “reduction to unity”, is outlined several times by the Tibetan Master in his writings and concerns all those “procedures” that tend to fuse the lower aspects of man (and not just man), with the higher ones, echoing the “higher recapitulation of the initial union of spirit and matter which brought the world into being.” (8)

At present, for Humanity, the theatre of unification is the mental realm (where the principle of separation holds sway) and in that field it is necessary to direct efforts so as to resolve the dualism, to which all disciples are subject, between the two poles of manifestation, spirit and matter: “It is through the mind that theory is formulated, truth distinguished and Deity apprehended. When we are more advanced upon the Path, we shall see naught but spirit everywhere, and the aphorism, enunciated by that great disciple, H.P.B., that ‘matter is spirit at the lowest point of its cyclic activity’ and ‘spirit is matter on the seventh plane’, or the highest, will be a realised fact in our consciousness.” (9)

It should also be kept in mind that “… all the great Lives of the solar system do possess bodies of our systemic mental matter, and therefore on that plane communication between all these Entities becomes a possibility. This fact is the basis of occult realisation, and the true ground for the at-one-ment.” (10)

This ardent aspiration for Unification is not only an individual goal, but concerns, even more significantly and urgently, the work carried out by the Groups, primarily the New Group of World Servers: “They are also an experiment which has for its objective the manifestation of certain types of energy which will produce cohesion, or an at-one-ment, upon earth. The present distraught condition in the world, the international impasse, the religious dissatisfaction, the economic and social upheaval of the past few decades, are all the result of energies that are so potent—owing to their immense momentum—that they can only be brought into rhythmic activity by the imposition of stronger and more definitely directed energies. When the groups are functioning adequately and have achieved, not only an internal group unity, but also harmony between the groups themselves, then some peculiar and esoteric work can be done.” (11)

The factor that promotes, and enables, the attainment of Unification is the Fourth Ray, whose energies, operating from the fourth (Buddhic) plane, “… rightly applied and understood, bring about harmony and at-one-ment. The result of this harmonising activity is beauty, but it is a beauty that is achieved through struggle. This produces a livingness through death, a harmony through strife, a Union through diversity and adversity.” (12)

“The function… [of the Fourth Ray] is to embody a type of energy, which is that of at-one-ment. This is essentially a healing force which brings all forms to an ultimate perfection through the power of the indwelling life, with which it becomes perfectly atoned. This is brought about by the soul or consciousness aspect, qualified by the ray in question. The relation of the human family to the divine scheme, as it exists, is that of bringing into close rapport the three higher kingdoms upon our planet and the three lower kingdoms of nature, thus acting as a clearing house for divine energy. The service humanity is to render is that of producing unity, harmony, and beauty in nature, through blending into one functioning, related unity the soul in all forms. This is achieved individually at first, then it takes place in group formation, and finally it demonstrates through an entire kingdom in nature.” (13)

Prompted by these hierarchical impulses, Humanity, especially in this year 2025, must turn to recognise the process of Unification as a fundamental method and procedure of evolution. On this day when, according to the heliocentric vision, the energies of Venus, Mistress of the Principle of right fusion between inferior and superior, and of Neptune, Master of the Principle of Communion, intersect between Pisces (Field of unity and salvation) and Aries (Home of fiery Ideas), Humanity’s yearning for union becomes even more pressing and heartfelt, raising to Heaven, and engraving in all consciousnesses, the words of flame of the Mantram of Unification.
These words, fuelled by the fire of the heart, herald the New Age and are echoed in the solemn words of the eternal Teaching:

“A great Oneness reigns in Cosmos as a powerful law.
Only those who adhere to this law
can verily take part in cosmic cooperation.
The Oneness of substance in everything urges humanity to creativity.
When the consciousness draws from the treasury of Space,
the Cosmic Magnet is under tension.
The manifested treasury contains the expression
of the energy imbued by the Oneness.
Therefore each seed of the spirit must feel this Oneness.
Each seed of the spirit belongs to the Cosmic Oneness
in which all cosmic creativeness is comprised.
Humanity deprives itself in departing from this truth
by setting up a law of separateness.
Immutable is the law of the Oneness in infinite diversity!
Only by this law can one build, because when attraction is creating,
the power that lies in the action is Oneness.
The creativity of Cosmos is boundless through this Oneness!”

(Infinity II § 48)
