The Great Invocation
(released in 1945 by Alice Bailey and The Tibetan, Djwhal Khul)
From the point of Light within the Mind of God
Let light stream forth into the minds of men.
Let Light descend on Earth.
From the point of Love within the Heart of God
Let love stream forth into the hearts of men.
May Christ return to Earth.
From the centre where the Will of God is known
Let purpose guide the little wills of men -
The purpose which the Masters know and serve.
From the centre which we call the race of men
Let the Plan of Love and Light work out
And may it seal the door where evil dwells.
Let Light and Love and Power restore the Plan on Earth.

About Me
- goinghome
- I am on a curiodyssey. Inherent is the desire for freedom and at the same time, a sense of its elusive ineffability, of constraints on obtaining or maintaining the state. Meditations on life, art, philosophy, humour and manifest phenomena can open doors, unlock chains or just lift the illusion of feeling alone. This blog, a media magpie, rounds up shiny scrolls and schedules select viewing!

You might also find interesting this site. It contains links to three new books on the Great Invocation:

Thanks starling
I'll check those links out, they seem very erudite.
A broad-minded music teacher first introduced me to the invocation. I was in Findhorn, Scotland, at the turn of the new milleneum where it was incanted daily. Most recently I spied it pinned to the wall of a holistic centre in Dublin. The appeal of its authoritative voice and restorative vision endures. : )
Thanks for the kind word about the books, and for the information about how you discovered the Invocation. As you duly note, it is out there in many places, taped to walls and pinned bulletin boards and now, posted on many a website.
And concerning its "authoritative voice"... this is something that has drawn me to a deeper study of the words. In my three (and soon to be four) books on the Invocation's words, I have tried to show how artfully the Invocation is constructed. I don't know if I have succeeded in showing this or not. Still I do think that there is something near magical in this mantram's composition.
