Christmas: A Symbol of Initiation

"The message of the birth of Christ rings ever new but is not today understood. The age of Aquarius will see the Rising Light, of which the Christ is the eternal symbol. The ancient story of the Birth will become universalised and be seen as the story of every disciple and initiate who takes the first initiation and, in his time and place, becomes a server and a lightbearer." THE DESTINY OF THE NATIONS by Alice Bailey
