Hilarion

Hilarion is the Chohan of the Fifth Ray, the emerald ray of truth, healing and science. He is the Master of exact knowledge, and he sees no conflict at all between careful, honest inquiry and the life of the spirit. To him they are one activity.

He is known for his patience with skeptics, with those who have been disillusioned by religion, and with anyone who cannot believe what they have not tested. He does not ask such people to believe. He asks them to look more closely.

Legend and Embodiments

Hilarion is said to have been a priest of the Temple of Truth on Atlantis who carried its flame to Greece before the continent was lost. The teachings also remember him as one who began by fiercely opposing a truth he later gave his life to, and, in a final embodiment, as a healer who withdrew to the desert and found that the sick followed him wherever he went. He ascended at the close of that life.

Service to the Ascension

As humanity's understanding of the physical world deepens, the Fifth Ray ensures that knowledge and conscience advance together. Hilarion overlights researchers, physicians, engineers and inventors, and he inspires discoveries that relieve suffering.

On the personal path, his gift is honesty. Healing begins, he teaches, at the moment a person stops arguing with what is so. He helps students see themselves accurately, without harshness and without excuse, and he strengthens the inner vision by which truth is recognized directly.

What Hilarion Teaches

• Doubt honestly held is nearer to truth than belief carelessly kept.
• You cannot heal what you will not look at.
• The same law that orders the atom orders the soul. Study either one deeply and you will find the other.
• Test everything, including this.

When to Call on Hilarion

• Honest self-knowledge
• Support for healers, scientists and researchers
• Restoring faith after disillusionment
• Discernment between what is true and what is merely appealing
• Developing clear inner vision

How to Work With Hilarion

Bring to Hilarion a question to which you actually want the true answer, even if the answer is uncomfortable. See emerald light gathered at the center of the forehead. Ask to be shown what is so. Then watch, over the following days, for the facts to present themselves. He often answers through ordinary evidence that you had been overlooking.

An Invocation

Beloved Hilarion, Master of the emerald ray,
open my eyes to what is true.
Heal in me every illusion and every self-deception.
Make my mind exact and my heart honest,
and let truth do its healing work in me.

A Word From Hilarion

You are afraid that if you look directly at the matter you will find something unbearable. In all my years of teaching, I have never once seen that happen. What is unbearable is the not looking.

The truth is always more merciful than the story you have built to avoid it.
