| The Destiny of the Nations - The Nations and the Rays |
| Spain has a sixth ray ego and a seventh ray personality
- thus reversing the forces which are expressing themselves [62] through the Russian
spirit. Spain, too, acts as a link in world adjustment but this time the link is between
Europe and Africa, and in this capacity Spain has earlier served. It will be apparent to
you also how inevitable has been the relationship between Spain and Russia and how the
ideology of the latter country has influenced the national government. It will also be
apparent why the battleground of two great ideologies - the Fascist and the Communistic -
has been found inevitably in Spain. The triumph of the Fascist part has been equally
inevitable from the start because of the egoic relation existing between Spain and Italy
and also to the proximity of the two countries which has enabled the telepathic impress of
Fascist idealism to be easily impressed upon the prepared and sensitive Spanish
consciousness. As to the fanaticism, the natural cruelty, the fervent idealism, the
arrogant pride and the religious and mystical quality of the Spanish character, they are
obviously of sixth ray origin and are highly crystallized. The intense individualism of
the people can be noted also as a definite part of their seventh ray personality
equipment. Their spiritual motto: "I disperse the clouds," is indicative of the
magical work for which Spain will eventually be responsible and sooner than is perhaps
anticipated, thus balancing in that highly intelligent and individualistic country the
field of scientific magic and the magical work of the Church of the future. This is a
prophecy which lies at present too far ahead to be capable of verification, either in this
generation, or the next, but it is rooted in national characteristics and the law of
probability. We have been considering the rays of the Great Powers and the two Axis Powers, Germany and Italy. But the same methods can be applied to any nation and race and should prove of deep interest to every student of history. [63] |
