Festival Talks
The period of the Three Linked Festivals is a time of spiritual high tide that provides us with a renewed opportunity to stand and work in closer rapport with the Spiritual Hierarchy and to become more useful agents or channels for the receiving and distributing of spiritual energy in the service of humanity as part of the New Group of World Servers. For each of the festivals (the Easter Festival at the Aries full moon, the Wesak Festival at the Taurus full moon, the Festival of Goodwill at the Gemini full moon), the School for Esoteric Studies prepares a talk to help us focus our thoughts and attention on the particular energies of that festival period. We have provided below the most recent of the talks for your reading and reflection.
