I can tell you what the antichrist is, and quite specifically. So far, no one has stated it accurately on this particular thread, or at least, that I've noticed.
The antichrist is not a specific individual, for this is the same kind of ignorant, superstitious scapegoating that leads some to
falsely assume that "the devil" is a force entirely separate from themselves and external. Nothing could be further from the truth. The greatest battle of all
fought within the individual is that between his or her
own spiritual Presence (identical with `God' for it is the immanent presence of God within every human heart) ... and the lower, "animal" nature,
aka the human
ego. In this battle, which precipitates fully in some particular lifetime or another, the Angel of the Presence - a
definite Individuality - must defeat the sum-total of "evil" that has accumulated throughout the long series of incarnations that each of us has undergone. Most of us are
quite a ways yet from that final battle, thus we face
lesser conflicts in our present lifetime, though some of these can be substantial battles in & of themselves.
Notice that nowhere in this have I suggested that there
is no such thing as external evil, or an external antichrist. Most certainly there are
forces which represent both of these (they are not synonymous - the latter is a subset of the former), yet even on a planetary scale, what I said above applies. Collectively, in terms of Humanity, there is
also an antichrist, and this is the same force
relative to the whole of Humanity as that within each individual which opposes the Christ Presence. Thus, anything that tends toward
separativeness as against Unity ... is of the antichrist. Fear, hatred, antipathy and exclusivity - are all examples of this type of force.
Cooperation, Forgiveness, Compassion and the Will-to-Good/Goodwill ...
are those qualities which are of the Christ and which can & will OVERCOME the antichrist when developed both within the individual, and within the Group - and within collective Humanity.
Perhaps this is not clear. But I fail to see how we could state it any more directly.
Not a person, but rather, human attitudes, and the spirit of
resistance to the princples of the New Era (of the Aquarian Christ) ... THIS is antichrist.
And as for a quick note about Benjamin Creme and Share International, as pertinent to the OP from Pico ...
NEITHER of these represents IN ANY FORM OR FASHION the antichrist. Creme is a disciple or a world server of a certain status, and is most certainly someone
guided by and acting according to the spirit of Christ and the Masters. IMHO, he is certainly not "the official spokeperson for" the Christ, or any of that - and in this respect, he is somewhat
entangled in the glamours and illusion that affect all world disciples along the Way. We know that Christ
needs no spokesperson, so anyone setting him or herself up as such - has already given us the indication we need
to be wary. BUT - Creme plays an important and valuable role, inasmuch as he helps to familiarize the intelligent, thinking public with the
fact that Christ and the Masters
do exist, that their return is
imminent, and that They come
according to the Divine Plan ... FOR ALL. In this, Creme and Share International (and numerous other groups stemming from the tradition of Alice Bailey) do us all a Service ... and for that, we should be grateful!
