THE SUBTLE PLANES ACCORDING TO ALICE BAILEY

In her book “A Treatise on the Cosmic Fire” (1925) Alice Bailey puts the following diagram and she affirms that this is the esoteric structure of our solar system:

(This diagram is found on pages 117 and 961.)

But unfortunately this diagram is FALSE since the true esoteric structure of the seven planes of existence, teaching by the Masters ant their real disciples, is the following:

And these seven planes are grouped into three parts:

A) The three higher planes constitute the divine world. (Although it would be more accurate to say: the part of the divine world that humans can now access, since there are still higher levels of existence, but to be able to access them, one must already be a very advanced initiate).

B) The three lower planes constitute the terrestrial world, of which only the physical plane is perceptible to the physical senses. But there is also a subtle counterpart that is the astral plane, which serves to give shape to matter. And there is also another subtle counterpart that is the energetic plane, which serves to vitalize that matter. (Because if the energetic plane did not exist, the matter would remain dead, and if the astral plane did not exist, the matter would dissolve, becoming again energy).

C) And to connect these two worlds there is an intermediate plane that serves as a bridge between the divine world and the terrestrial world.

And as you can see, the structure taught by Original Theosophy is very different from what Alice Bailey teaches.

So, why Alice Bailey publish that incorrect structure?

She did it because she based on what Leadbeater and Annie Besant taught, without realizing that what they taught was wrong. And for proof of this, I refer to what Leadbeater wrote in chapter five of his book “A Textbook of Theosophy”:

« Mrs. Besant, President of the Theosophical Society, has decided to take new names to name the planes. So in the future this new nomenclature will be used to replace the old names that were given in volume II of my book “The Inner Life”.

Below is a table for reference.

	NEW NAMES	OLD NAMES
1	Divine World	Adi plane
2	Monadic World	Plano Aupapaduka
3	Spiritual World	Atomic or Nirvanic Plane
4	Intuitional World	Buddhic Plane
5	Mental World	Mental Plane
6	Emotional or Astral World	Astral plane
7	Physical World	Physical Plane

»

And as you can see, they are exactly the same names and the same structure that Alice Bailey used for her diagram.

OBSERVATION

However, despite the strong evidence that Leadbeater, Besant and Alice Bailey wrote incorrect things, several of their followers have claimed me that the matter is not for as much and that they do not see why I make "a whole scandal", since there is not much difference between the two structures.

But those who think like this is because they have NOT studied esotericism seriously, because if they had really investigated more deeply, than they would be as outraged as I am, and to prove them, consider the following analogy:

Imagine that Leadbeater in his arrogance decides that the notes of the musical range are incorrect and that therefore he must modify them.

And then he decides to join the “C” with the “D”, and also the “E” with the “F”. And as he eliminated two notes, to continue having seven notes, he invents two new notes (and which we suppose he calls them: “J” and “K”).

So instead of having:

C – D – E – F – G – A – B

Now we have:

CD – EF – G – A – B – J – K

And the one who does not know much about music is going to say:

              -  "I do not see much difference, since there are also seven notes and sound similar, so it can be considered that it is more or less the same."

But instead he who knows music will say:

              -  "But what circus did that guy! How they want me to touch such a jumble of inventions and deformations! This cannot be applied in any real musical score!"

And the same happens to the deformations that Leadbeater invented with esotericism.

• Because having gathered the physical plane with the energetic plane.

• And to have joined the astral plane with the kamasic plane.

• And to have invented the divine plane and the monadic plane.

Leadbeater completely altered the structure taught by the Trans-Himâlayan Masters and this structure IS THE BASE on which everything that exists in the Universe is organized, because of the Correspondence Law that says:

"As is above, is below, as is in the small, is in the great."

And consequently that septenary structure taught by the Masters will also be reflected in all the other aspects of Creation.

For example:

In the macrocosmic scales of the Universe

In the hidden constitution of the humans

In the cosmic evolution that humans make through the seven rounds, since it is in each of these rounds that one of these seven principles is perfected.

And also in the evolution that humans make within each of these rounds through the seven root races.

And these correspondences also you find them:

-      on the sacred planets,

-      in the rays of creation,

-      in the chakras,

-      in the colors,

-      in the musical notes,

-      in the hidden structure of the different kingdoms of nature (the mineral kingdom, the plant kingdom, the animal kingdom), etc.

THESE CORRESPONDENCES ARE EVERYWHERE !!!

And when people alter the basic structure, these correspondences disappear (what happens with the various esoteric pseudo-teachings that have emerged). And that's why while you keep reading only the books of Leadbeater, Besant or Alice Bailey, the structures they teach will seem very consistent.

But the day you want to apply those structures with what the Masters of Shamballa really taught, you will crash because simply those alterations are irreconcilable with the true esoteric teaching.

So it is up to you to decide if you want to keep wasting your time studying false things or if you really want to acquire true esoteric knowledge.
