"I call heaven and earth to record this day against you,
that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing:
therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live. (Deuteronomy
30:19)
"Chelas whose white-hot heat has become lukewarm or cold,
I say to you, welcome to my heart!
I AM Morya. I watch over you! I move with you! Let me in and let
go of whatever it is that disturbs you concerning this path, this
Messenger, this Community, this organization!
"What is that to thee? All of this human
condition shall go into the flame.
"What ought to concern you is whether the
servants of God are determined to try and try and try again, whether
they are determined to correct mistakes and rise, whether they
are true chelas —not whether
they are perfect mannequins, not whether they are robots of some
kind of a false
perfection but whether they have a heart of gold and of fire and
can manifest that heart in the very presence of the human condition,
which ye all have! And the human condition is the condition
of imperfection. It is a given.
"Judge not by the condition of anyone's
human. Look further to the depths of the soul and make allowances
for moments when anyone may be tired, may utter the thoughtless
remark or forget something that is important.
"We understand these things! We have moved
in this world. Those who expect perfect human beings and will
not join any organization or be a part of any group endeavor until
they find perfect people are in danger of losing their souls,
for they are idolaters. Therefore we let the petticoat of the
Messenger show that you might see that none is perfect in the
human condition and that you might perceive beyond the petticoat
the perfection of the Presence of God and know the difference.
"Let us have balance, beloved, and let
your minds not be overcome with the energy veil of judgment! For
I tell you, unless you let go of your judgment of anyone on the
Path, yet retain your Christ-discrimination to hold the balance
for anyone's weaknesses—unless
you let go of judgment, I will tell you what will come upon you:
The fires of hell themselves will be unleashed to you in your
own judgment!
"This is truth, beloved, for judgment is
a weighty matter. Thus you find the teaching of Jesus Christ,
'Judge not lest ye be judged. For with what measure ye mete, it
shall be measured unto you again!'
"I have written on the momentum of criticism,
condemnation and judgment. Beware of its subtlety in your mind!
Beware of its subtlety in your pride! Walk in another's moccasins,
literally, beloved. If you are critical of someone, take on yourself
the penance. Ask that one's Holy Christ Self and the Lords of
Karma to give you that one's moccasins for twenty-four hours.
See how you feel bearing that one's karma and burden. See how
you come to know what striving [your brothers and sisters] may
have in their hearts that you do not see whereby they accomplish
their daily tasks against odds you know not of and conditions
in the body that try them.
"Yes, beloved, I suggest if you are of
the bent of the carnal mind that does continually judge others,
that you cease it at once, else I shall have to remove you from
my community of chelas. For all who hold this vibration maintain
a direct tie to hell and that hell will one day rise up in them.
And how will they cast it down when they have created the conditions
whereby this hell should overtake them?
"Ye are at the altar of God! Know it and
do not trifle with the fire that has come to you, for the initiation
of fire ye must pass through. Pass through it, then, and do not
allow your consciousness to be in a place where this fire shall
burn you; for the fire shall try your work of what sort it is.
Expect that initiation day by day and maintain the stillness of
the peace of God through your champion Archangel Uriel.
"These are my words to the wise and the
ignorant.
"May all benefit.
"I send you forth to conquer planet earth
and I expect you to accomplish the task!" [47-second standing
ovation]

"Let us begin, then, at the beginning. For the Lord of the
First Ray does teach to refrain from all criticism, condemnation,
and judgment. Yet, when individuals choose, they will criticize
the director of their group or their teaching center or someone
put in charge of a committee.
"They do not consider it criticism but only
'constructive suggestion,' while the one criticized is bowed down
with that condemnation and therefore not able to perform his best.
His performance may indeed become worse and worse while others,
their voices becoming shrill and dissonant, will continue to cry
out in condemnation. This often occurs where the best servants
do their best and can do no more, for life or breath is not available
to them, as they have already given their all.
"In some areas these servants might well
be God-tutored and shown a better way by those who think they
know better, and sometimes do, but have not drawn that full measure
of devotion from the very fountain of the heart to fill their
own cup and then give to drink of that brother who is servant
in our retreat.
"I would say this then: that it is high
time that those who think they know better come then and
join and give their service willingly, and realize that whatever
the office that you aspire toward —whether
teacher or minister or any other level of professional esteem
within this activity—you must
come and begin at the beginning and become the servant of all.
And resist not, then, that service, nor expect others to do for
you what only you may do for yourselves.
"Now, there is from time to time created,
by the absence of love or a true acceleration on the Path, a schism
between those serving on our staff and those serving in the field.
This, however, is not created by the devotees themselves who are
the tireless ones but often by those who are offended in themselves
when they see such servants and cannot themselves bring themselves
to give that measure of service! Therefore, they must find fault
with our staff, concluding they are fanatical or impersonal or
too solemn or too busy to give them the time of conversation.
"Well, perhaps their busyness is a path
of initiation that ought to be tried out. And perhaps their labor
is long and hard-spent because they also need reinforcements.
But they would never ask for help in that task. They themselves
understand that the calling must be from the heart and there must
be the response of the heart.
" . . . And therefore, adults who have become
sophisticated in other areas are sometimes more difficult to train
and discipline, especially in our retreat of the third ray, because
they cannot believe that they do not have the attainment that
they think they have.
"They cannot believe that they do not have
the ability to assess their own position on the Path or their
own vibration, that they do not know the difference between criticism
that is utterly destructive and that careful analysis and constructive
contribution that ought to be given from the wisdom and compassion
of the heart. Therefore, you see, we have those even of professional
standards that expect to be received on the basis of the training
of the outer mind when, in fact, they must begin with Jesus, before
the hierophant of Luxor, at the very first steps of application.
" . . . For I assure you that none enter
heaven without passing through the most arduous disciplines, ranging
from the petal pink of the love ray to the intensity that reaches
finally the piercing, almost sharpness, of the ruby ray which,
when the sacrifice is not forthcoming, must enter in and strip
from the disciple who calls himself disciple those things which,
my beloved, ought not to be.
"Let charity, then, and givingness be without
dissimulation. And let us realize that pride itself, pride in
one’s own ability to direct and correct others, is the first
condition that must go before the ascended masters and before
their chelas."

"Concerning offenses, the question has often been asked,
'Shall I forgive my brother indefinitely for continuing wrongs
against me?' When I spoke in Judaea and Galilee on this subject,
my answer recorded in the Gospels was all-embracing, taking into
account every situation—both the sin of foreknowledge and
the sin of ignorance. The timeless message 'Forgive them, Father,
for they know not what they do' and 'Forgive them even seventy
times seven' is plainly uttered, and yet much understanding is
needed on the matter.
"The best way to forgive others is first
to forgive oneself for all errors and then to expand this forgiveness
infinitely to all. Be sure to cover every circumstance, make no
exceptions. If God be a flaming fire and all of his offspring
divine sparks, why should not one spark forgive another, no matter
how much the sacred fire may have been misused?
"True, one requires special wisdom in the
solving of certain problems—and, whereas forgiveness is
in order, one ought to wisely avoid exposing oneself unnecessarily
to the dangers inherent within human vanity. Yet love must and
will prevail when the Presence is wholly relied upon.
"Now, not everyone has or holds the same
balance of love, wisdom, and power. Some have an excess of one
and much lack of the others. For example, if men lack wisdom,
no matter how much they may love, their well-intended acts may
seem to go amiss. If they lack power, no matter how wise and loving
they may be, their good may not be far-reaching to the mark or
as effective as they would like it to be. If they lack love, no
matter how much wisdom and power are manifesting, they may find
that their acts are oft aborted, their energies rendered partially
or wholly useless to the great cosmic purposes.
"Find your balance, then, in a triangle
of perfection, a holy trinity which produces the most intense
action of all three within the heart of man and the heart of creation.
Here the great wisdom of the discriminating Holy Christ Self calls
upon the mighty light rays of the Presence to draw forth and focus
the God-power which in itself is invincible.
"Here the all-loving heart of the Presence
seals the balanced flame of wisdom and power in a penetrating
sheath of divine love which can never be requalified with human
nonsense or avarice. Free, then, from deceit, the threefold flame
represents, as beloved Morya so often says, 'a thrust for a purpose.'
(Let all who deny purpose in creation take heed!)
"Certainly, then, no cosmic teacher of
Truth should be unduly criticized. I do not say that their fruits
should fall far from the parent tree; yet remember, it is easy
to see in others the very same qualities that are acting in one's
own world. Even when I manifested perfection, some wise men (intellectually
wise) and some quite devout men (religiously devoted) saw me as
possessed
with an evil spirit and profane.
"All who would teach men the Great Law
of God must even in this day be prepared to suffer some misunderstanding
and false accusation. If there is no cause to bring this to pass,
the sinister force will try to manufacture one and, having so
done, will begin to fabricate its chain of lies. If there be even
the slightest cause, this unrighteous force (mentally aggressive
and seething with malice) proceeds to distort and twist facts
by gossip so as to disturb as many people as possible and thus
prevent the saints from carrying on their great mission and service
of love to Life.
"Take heart and be diligent! Be wise to
this deception—hold the faith. The life of the Light is,
above all, transcendent and worthy of any suffering or inconvenience
for the sake of my name, I AM.
"After two thousand years of Christianity,
the clamor and confusion centering around 'What must I do to be
saved?' still rages, and seekers for more light often become so
engrossed in the search that the goal itself is lost sight of.
"Beloved ones, your ascension is your goal!
It is that simple. If all the energy you have ever misqualified
by misusing Life's precious substance is requalified and transmuted
by the violet fire of freedom's love and by forgiveness in action,
what then can prevent your ascension or the attainment of your
goal? Yet your own Presence alone knows the day and the hour when
it shall occur.
" . . . I am grateful, therefore, for those who are both
honest and humble enough to admit to mistakes, yet zealous and
hardy enough to submit to human criticism by going forth to do
the best they can to serve in the Father's vineyard. Many of those
who suffer the most severe criticism shall go further to attain
their victory than man may think.
"Their heart's right motive and prayerful
attitude, seen and heard at higher levels, will in due course
attract a higher state of perfection until at last they attain
the cosmic consciousness of the immortals—though their critics
remain sidetracked and bound in limitation and self-created confusion.
Yet we would have none thus fail. Let all be vigilant!"

"Criticism is a disease that does not produce the fruit of
rightful striving. It is lawless and destructive in its base intent
and drags down the soul of the individual who submits to it. Thus
the admonishment 'Judge not lest ye be judged' went forth.
"We are aware of the fact that the godless
societies criticize the flaws of those nations that are outside
of their fold whom they would overpower. We understand their methods
of boring from within, of hiding behind legitimate facades, and
deceiving the people. We urge, then, in view of the awful plots
that have been hatched to overthrow the forces of freedom in the
world, that every lover of freedom will heed our warning in his
prayers, in his contacts, and in the renewal of his faith.
"Jesus said long ago, 'They that are whole
need not a physician; but they that are sick.' The sickness of
the nations must be healed, the shield of righteousness must be
used, the sword of the Spirit must be employed, and every magnificent
action that man can take must be taken for the preservation of
right values. The proper education of the masses must be accelerated
and the protection of freedom must be carried on to the fullest
extent of the law. Armageddon is at hand. The forces of destruction,
with their godless philosophy, and the sweet, spiritual powers
of the world to come are locked in a deadly embrace.
"It is never a question of outcome, insofar
as the power of right is concerned; but the battle can be lost
in the realm of the individual-in the militant and vicious individual
who, in the name of social justice, can excuse a conduct that
tarnishes the image of justice and produces only the fruit of
misery, never of order and peace. Knowing, therefore, that the
little children who are incoming will be victims of man's dangerous
defections from just action, we urge that this activity of light
be expanded more and more.
"A strengthening of the bonds of devotion
to the preservation of God's dream for America and the world is
in order. For the ascended masters, in far-off retreats and far-off
worlds, are watching as the struggles of mankind go on, hoping
and calling forth an avalanche of light to awaken men before it
is too late.
"Understand, then, O men of earth, that
eternal vigilance is the price that you must pay if you are to
preserve liberty upon the earth. Oh, act before it is too late!
As a cosmic mother, I speak."

"The children of the light have a most awesome responsibility.
Theirs is to portray the universal divine life. They are expected
to provide the power of a better example. The crafty world often
sees the students of the light as though they, too, were crafty.
Hence there is a tendency on the part of the world to suspect
everyone who is engaged in spiritual deliverance.
"I think it well that the chelas of the
light understand that they cannot please the world nor can
they prevent the world from false judgment. It should be borne
in mind that albeit men have left the field of divinity and denied
their reality, they are still utilizing divine power to perform
their darkened work. When they pass false judgment upon the sons
of the light, the white-fire core of the energy which they use
obediently follows the pattern that has been imposed upon it (in
this case false judgment), thereby creating arrows of outrageous
fortune which are slung at the children of the light.
"In addition, this activity of criticism, even when unspoken,
depletes the supply of light of the ones so engaged; for the flow
of the mind is also the flow of God's energy which is thus channeled
through the attention into a dangerous and unworthy matrix for
which they must one day give account.
"The protection of your tube of light,
vigilance in consciousness, adherence to the laws of true being,
and faithfulness in all things will help you to expand the flame
of freedom in your being and to obtain your victory over human
deceit and misjudgment. The children of the light must not fear
the children of the dark. The energy which they use is of this
world. The great Master Jesus came up against this very thing
in his discourse with Pilate. When Pilate reminded him that he
had the power to release him or to retain him, the Christ said
unto him, 'Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except
it were given thee from above.'
"The children of the light should rejoice
in their own great God Presence and in the freedom which this
Presence brings to them. They must not dissipate the energies
of their freedom in overconcern with the antics of the disparaging
ones. Neither should the true follower of God allow himself to
be cast aside from the spiritual path by a wayward brother who
may appear to be a child of light but whose actions may be questionable.
"Remember, blessed ones, until you are ascended and free
it is still possible for you in an unguarded moment to make mistakes
in your human self. While the Presence of God who lives in every
son of heaven always knows the correct and perfect thing to do,
unfortunately many of the chelas of the light neglect to make
their application and to hold that attunement with their Presence
which would give them their freedom.
" . . . Down through the centuries we have
observed that human opinion and a sense of personal righteousness
have deterred individuals from the spiritual path. What difference
does it make, blessed ones, if individuals think that you are
funny or just a little bit foolish? Suppose they consider that
you have been duped by erroneous concepts? Does it really matter
what they think, seeing that most of them are changing their minds
all of the time and are themselves scarcely free from some form
of error?
" . . . Long ago Saint Paul said that men
should believe a lie and be damned. The meaning of the word damned
is condemned; therefore, the end result of individuals believing
a lie about others or themselves is ultimate condemnation all
the way around. For whatever is held in consciousness about life—any
part of it—or one's associates
is eventually outpictured in one's own world. This is the law,
blessed ones. It functions unerringly and no one is excluded,
for the law is impersonal. God is no respecter of persons.
"Your freedom comes not by criticism,
condemnation, or judgment nor does it come by exalting yourselves
above your fellowmen by your own personal opinions. Your freedom
comes by humble recognition of the Magnificat—'He hath put
down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.'

"Take care, then, beloved, that you are able to disassociate
the anger directed against you from the anger that comes from
within. Learn to separate the two and to deal with them judiciously
and dispassionately. Step aside from these momentums that are
now surfacing. Enter in to your
Christhood.
"This is truly not
a time for the indulgence of human whim. The whims of many boil
down to a self- pity that appears as sorrow. But the sorrow of
millions is that they cannot have their fleshpots and also their
God consciousness, that they cannot become Christ and him crucified
and give that Christ to a world and yet revel in the sensual pleasures
they have indulged in for thousands of years.
"Some whose time
has come to exercise right choice for the path of Christhood are
angry because that time has come. And thereby they stand to lose
what they have gained from positive momentums of service offered
in this and previous lifetimes. Choices must be made based upon
reality. And I know of no greater God-Reality than that which
is unveiled by the All-Seeing Eye of God.
"The grinding in
the earth of the hoofbeats of the Four Horsemen and the grinding
of the teeth where the teeth are set on edge are among the signs
of perilous times, especially for devotees on the Path. I cannot
underscore too sharply that these are times when there is the
moment of choosing—day by day. It is impossible to sit on
the fence. And in the moment of the acceleration of world karma
and the tightening of the coils of personal karma people exercise
their choices in desperation, and great mistakes can be made by
great miscalculations, both of the cycles of opportunity and of
the concluding of the cycles of opportunity.
" . . . If you are not ready to let go of
the not-self, then I say, beloved ones, you shall know sorrow.
You shall know profound sorrow. Therefore, make right choices
. . . You must prepare for the descent of planetary karma and
know that it does increase. And this is an hour and a season when
there is a cycle of returning karma such as has not been seen
in 25,800 years.
"Returning karma when received with
a good attitude brings out the very best in everyone. Watch how
it tests the mettle of the soul and brings to the surface the
very worst elements of being, that each one might be initiated
and establish his own Real Identity. Thus early on we gave you
the advice to pursue the taking apart and the putting together
again of the components of the psyche, to study your own psychology
and to raise up your soul as you nurture your child within. All
these things we have pointed out for good reason."

"You must see [to it], then, that the dweller-on-the-threshold
within you is bound and that all substance of hatred of the Mother
in the unconscious is consumed, which means, beloved, that there
must be no strife or argumentation or harsh words or dissonance
between any of you. For it is the breaking of a mother's heart
and it is your 'ignore-ance' of your own Divine Mother, your own
human mothers and the office of Mother.
"In deference to the Mother, her children
do not squabble and grumble and come into conflict one with the
other. Therefore know, beloved, that you will have to settle these
problems that you bring upon yourselves, for we will not allow
the Messenger to be taken to the level of settling the problems
of squabbling children.
"You must get along with one another and
work together and rise above the pettiness and the smallness of
the mind. You must recognize that it is a major challenge to be
in two worlds, and that is the challenge that the one who holds
the office of Messenger must accept in order to have that mantle.
"It is a stressful situation upon the body.
And when you as Chelas with a capital C agree to be the manifestation
of your Morya, you will take on some of that very same stress.
To bear the burden of the Lord of the Chohan of the First Ray
by asking to be his representative and the vessel for that Ascended
Master to step through the veil, beloved ones, [is a sacrifice
that is not without commensurate reward].
"When you know the presence of the
lower self and the presence of an Ascended Master in the same
place, you will come to understand that this is no small challenge.
And you will recognize that the harmony of your being with that
Master and with that presence does bring great Light to the Earth.
But the greater the Light, the greater the opposition to that
Light."

"Count not, therefore, the cycles of time and space. For
the Lord ’s coming is not known by any but by the Father
and the Son, and the Father in the Son, and the Father and the
Son in the soul of light! And therefore, each individual will
give testimony of the binding of the dweller on the threshold
of the false-hierarchy impostor of his own office. And each one
will give testimony in his own life of the binding of the dweller
on the threshold of the beast whose name is Blasphemy, of the
Antichrist, and of the accuser of the brethren which accused them
before our God day and night.
"See then how Christ in you is the hope
of glory and the binding of that beast! See then how I have pronounced
the Word in this hour of the Christ Self of every son of God on
earth. And it shall come to pass. And you will see it, and you
will note that the new day of the filling of the earth with the
glory of the Lord is nigh. And you will live to see a great glory
upon earth—even as you will pass through that travail that
leads to the peace of God in your heart forever and forever.
" . . . Therefore, bind then those who perpetrate
the lie and the deception of their doubt and fear and their own
anxiety and their own revenge and their own desire to gain a net
gain against the victory of the Word! Bind then the entire momentum
of the infamy of the fallen ones, and replace it now with a flame
of God-mastery, which therefore in itself (as the Holy Spirit
of my causal body) does judge those who persist in pitting themselves
against the great logic of the Word, who persist in their unbelief.
Beloved ones, the testimony of my life and that of ascended masters
throughout cosmos and that of Almighty God before everyone in
embodiment is so abundant, so redundant, so miraculous, so entirely
full of the light of the Spirit that there is no one upon this
planetary body who has any further excuse to doubt the living
Word and the living Presence of God.
"And therefore, I,
Jesus, bring the judgment of doubt and unbelief in this hour,
and I cast it out as the poison of the seed of Serpent and as
a nasty indulgence of those who ought to be fulfilling cosmic
purpose! I cast it out this night, and I cast it out on the morrow.
And on the third day, I say, those who retain it shall be bound
and judged themselves as though they themselves were the dweller
itself. For those who align themselves with the planetary momentum
of fear and doubt and nonbelief in my own Christhood now have
been served notice by my own Father, by the Lord God Almighty,
that the prophecy of the damnation unto those who do not believe
in that Christ is upon them. And that prophecy of damnation must
come to pass, and it must come to pass in the concluding shadows
of the Piscean age, preparatory to the manifestation of the full-orbed
manifestation of the light of Aquarius through the heart of beloved
Saint Germain.
"Understand the meaning
of my Word! Understand that these things are coming to pass and
these prophecies are not forever moved into the future, but they
are at hand. And this is the Day of the Lord ’s Vengeance,
this is the day of the tribulation! And this is the day of the
falling from the heaven of those hierarchies that have occupied
their positions too long. And therefore, they are bound and they
are cast down! And those who have misrepresented the hierarchy
in the office of the Son and the stellar bodies now find themselves
removed and the true light-bearers rise. Why, even in this community
of the Holy Spirit, you find yourselves rising into positions
of your own Christhood—because of the wickedness of the
fallen ones (and its presence) no longer here. Therefore, they
are removed.
" . . . I, Jesus, standing before the altar
of the Most High God in the Great Central Sun, raise my right
hand and deliver to the Almighty and to his people the full-gathered
momentum of my ascension flame, multiplied by the two-thousand-year
dispensation of my ascension, on this day and date in this year
of Our Lord, 1983—that momentum of power for the judgment
then of the betrayer of the Great White Brotherhood, that betrayer
as an office held by many fallen ones throughout the galaxies.
Both the betrayer and the office receive the judgment now—the
betrayer of the witnesses, of the messengers, of the avatars,
of their apostles and disciples, of the prophets and the holy
ones of all centuries and planetary bodies and galaxies.
"I, Jesus, take now the full-gathered momentum
of the portion of my lifestream as the ascension current, and
I deliver it by my right hand. For the Father has appointed the
judgment unto the Son. By my right hand, I deliver that judgment
now upon the office and the person of the betrayer of the Great
White Brotherhood and its representatives on earth and in heaven—namely,
this Messenger Elizabeth Clare Prophet; namely, the Messenger
Mark L. Prophet and all messengers from the very foundation of
the systems of worlds who have gone forth and been sent as a part
of the angelic evolution of the Most High God to rescue the children
of the light from the betrayer and from the momentum of the betrayal
held in that office.
"Therefore, it is the judgment of Almighty
God in my heart that they shall no longer pass the threshold of
the living Word of Truth. They shall be bound, they shall be cast
out, and they shall be judged! In the name of the cosmic cross
of white fire which I now place at the very feet of every son
of God, I likewise pronounce the authority of my ascension in
the announcement of the ascension in the Light of certain sons
of God who have prepared themselves for this hour.
"Therefore, though
it may come to pass in the decades or decades hence, so it is
sealed!
And it is sealed by the momentum of my light. For with the judgment
of the betrayer, so the sons of light rise. And I AM the resurrection
and the life of every son of God. And I AM the resurrection unto
the damnation of the sons of perdition who will no longer and
no more go out to tempt or to torment the seed of light! I, Jesus,
have spoken. And I have responded to the Lord God Almighty this
night—to beloved Alpha, to beloved Omega, who have sent
forth the call which I have then answered, even as I have sent
the call which they have answered. And therefore, I and my Father
are one. I and my Mother are one.
"I seal this fiat of my heart. I
seal it this day and date, this twelfth of May, for I AM in the
victorious golden cycle of the New Day. I seal it in the earth!
I seal it in the astral belt! I seal it in the mental belt! I
seal it in the etheric belt! And there is nowhere that the Fallen
One may hide! For I AM Jesus the Christ, and I will pursue unto
the finish everyone who raises his head against the living Truth
throughout all cosmos. And I AM the multiplication of my Electronic
Presence, worlds without end! And you will see the coming of the
New Day. As I AM THAT I AM on the earth and in the heavens, so
I AM Alpha and Omega. I AM the beginning and the ending and the
Amen!"

Knowledge of that Power which Will Transmute
To Those Who Are Ready to Leave Their Misconceptions
at the Gate of the Kingdom:
The coercions of the world have exactly the power
humanity gives to them. Is it not written in the sacred scriptures
that God will suffer man to be tempted above that he is able,
but will with every temptation also make a way of escape?
Whereas man, then, has often created a God made
in his own image and ignored the holy mandate of freedom to express
the magnificent reality of his own God Self, man can still, if
he wills it so, on any given day of his life shift his polarity
from the point of bondage to that of dynamic freedom.
Some concepts are so little that they flit across
the wind as fireflies in a swamp; but, whatever their size, it
must be recognized that men’s ideas and even their imaginations
are either stripes of bondage or joy—bursts
of true freedom that, like white-fire magic, cut across lines
of force and old encrusted momentums to give human beings the
joy of the magnificent God-concept of what freedom really is.
How unfortunate it is that men will listen to
the blaring idiocies of the unillumined, of the ill- mannered
whose cacophony is heard the world around. The vain diatribes
of accusation and subtle intellectual rhetoric which continue
to divide the world, the drivel of human sophistication and sophistry,
these are not true culture, not can they give to the God-seeker
a sense of his infinite beauty.
During my lifetime as Francis Bacon, when the
Shakespearean plays were released, embodying at times those cloud-capped
ideas of the Spirit, and then again entering into the arrows and
slings of outrageous fortune, I delivered to the world both censure
and praise
—praise for the beauty to be found in the soul which God
planted there in bejeweled splendor and blame for the old 'follow-the-leader'
concepts whereby men of fear write their own epitaphs in infamy.
These do not consider the native qualities of divinity as gifts
of worth, but follow instead those decadent concepts which reveal
them as men who stand for nothing save feathering their own nests.
We admire the brave men and women of freedom
who have thought first not of self but of God- good for humanity,
whose faith, reaching toward the stars, has perceived with clarity
the need to act at special times and not to create senseless delays.
If freedom ever needed friends, it is now! And I cannot think
but that the members of the Karmic Board—recognizing the
dauntless qualities of some who, seizing the opportunities at
hand, act in God’s name to uphold the banner of truth—have
also pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor
on behalf of that reality for which embodied souls hunger and
thirst.
This desire for reality that lingers in the hearts
of men brings me, then, to a necessary explanation of Matter and
Spirit. One of the most subtle devices of the powers of evil that
has been used to deceive good and true men in the past is the
false logic, fashioned in word- pictures, that portrays Matter
as though it were God’s enemy and Spirit as though it were
his best friend. True, 'God is a Spirit;' but it is also recorded,
'Try the spirits whether they are of God. Every spirit that confesseth
that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God.'
This statement denotes that it is necessary for
the consciousness of the Christ—the immaculate consciousness
of the Christos—to enter into the heart of every spirit,
that it might be crowned with the love of the only begotten Son
of the Father, full of grace and truth. Let us point out that
Matter may likewise be endowed by the Spirit of the Christ, and
that good and evil cannot be conveniently categorized as ‘Spirit’
and ‘Matter’; for these must be examined in the light
of their inherent qualification to determine whether they are
enshrined by the consciousness of truth or error.
Some schools of metaphysics teach the condemnation
of Matter, which in reality was born of the Spirit and is but
a relatively lower vibration of that Spirit, capable of being
raised by the transmutative powers of the Holy Spirit into pure
light. What man requires, then, is not a simple formula or system
of affirmation and denial to disprove the existence of the material
universe
—as though by mere thought he could alter the creation—but
the knowledge of that power which will transmute the frozen energies
of the world, whether dense or ethereal, into light and love and
truth. When this is accomplished, then freedom is born and radiates
from within both Matter and Spirit.
Let men see the role of the violet flame as it
culls out of the consciousness, out of the vital bodies and out
of the whole being of man every human subtlety, every retrogressive
tendency and completely nullifies the coercions of the man of
the world. What a great blessing it is when spiritual freedom
comes to the soul, when the holy monad has infused into him not
only the soul-life that has traveled from body to body but also
the miraculous attunement that makes man one with the Father,
one with the principle that is embodied by all but is expressed
to its fullest in so few.
Expansion and progress go hand in hand. He who
expands the light of freedom within himself is a part of the vanguard
of cosmic progress, not only for the planet but also for the universe.
And, as the swelling billows roll, the tides of time and eternity
passing in review before the screen of mortal consciousness, the
Infinite bides his time and extends his canopy of awareness over
all. This infinite Spirit of God that broods over the waters governs
also the ultimate destiny of man.
Matter is not the culprit but the clay that must
be molded. It is human pride on the one hand and a sense of groveling
in the dust on the other, it is condemnation, judgment, and criticism
reinforced by fear which play their roles in hindering the soul
from the expansions God envisions for all. But, regardless of
the seeds of confusion that have been scattered in the fields
of true religion concerning the polarity of Matter and Spirit,
I am confident that we are evolving a new breed of spiritual avatars,
even now, through the activities of the Brotherhood. For we are
showing forth the meaning of freedom as freedom has not been revealed
before.
Freedom is in the soul, seedlike and dormant,
and but awaits the nourishment of the attention, the acceptance
of the consciousness, the pulsing joy of awareness. It leads man
onward out of decrepitude and age into vitality and amazement;
for the love of God that passeth understanding, that conveyeth
ultimate destiny to all, will not be moved in its great onrush
toward freedom. Freedom soars and carries with it into the ethereal
realms of light and loveliness even material substance, chaining
nothing, but changing all things into untethered progress tethered
to reality. For, although man must be free, he must also be willingly
bound to the highest.
The Gloria in Excelsis Deo that will bring true
peace on earth is in the soul. It was planted in the garden of
the heart by the Almighty. In him and in the Spirit of truth that
he is, is the unfoldment of loveliness and high adventure. Life
is not meant to be a vale of trial, but a veil of triumph wherein
the Spirit of Christ-truth, perceiving the blueprint of universal
reality, seizes the luminous orb of destiny and casts down the
despairs of life as it raises the banner of freedom within the
souls of men.
Fiery destiny, unveil thyself
And show the higher way of God!
Fiery destiny, unveil thyself
For man is not a clod!
Fiery destiny, unveil thyself
Infuse the soul with God!
Invictus,

Love is like a great magnet. It is the magnet of the heart. Those
who yield to the nature of the heart without the guidance of reason
are often emotionally warped, and they do not understand the perfect
balance of love manifest in the triune nature of God. Naturally,
love is manifest in love; but love is also manifest in wisdom
and in power. Unless it be included in these other aspects of
the Trinity, man does not walk in that balanced consciousness
of the Christ which enables him to retain his harmony with Life.
Harmony comes about because man is truly imbued
with the love-nature of God. But how easy
it is to confuse human loves and desires with divine love! Once
divine love is understood as the great givingness of God that
is also mindful of every precept of cosmic law, try as he will,
man realizes that he can no longer function from the plane of
human desire and human opinion and still be in harmony with the
law of infinite Love.
The reason for this is quite simple. Human desires
and human opinions are fluctuating, whereas true love is constant
and even-flowing. Man, as a child, mimics the life-patterns of
his elders; yet because of his soul’s lack of development
and his karma that is periodically harvested as the fruit of former
lives, his instincts are often not in keeping with divine grace.
Whenever a man is persuaded to move against divine
grace, against the prompting of the inner voice, to commit those
acts that are in violation of cosmic harmony, he is creating an
etching upon his soul that will remain not only for his current
life but also for the term of his individuality, until one day
he finally comes face to face with the law of sin—of
inharmony—which he created
“within his members” and which he therefore must balance.
This is why man in the lower aspects of his nature is admonished
to be mindful of God; and, because man in the higher aspects of
his nature is made in the Image of God, he must one day face the
results of his own sowings ere he can return to that Image.
Tiny seeds of doubt and distrust sprout just
as well under the present burden of world thought as seeds of
faith and inspiration. There are times that, in all cosmic honesty,
because of man’s affinities with the world and his carnal
desires, it is the opinion of many in heavenly places that it
is easier for him to become the victim of his own evil tendencies
than it is for him to drink the cup of his own innate goodness.
But, beloved ones, just because in the past you have created in
darkness, there is no reason to continue sowing seeds of shadow
that you will reap in the future!
Let all realize that “Whatsoever a man
soweth, that shall he also reap” is a cosmic fiat which
was never abrogated either by the words or the works of Christ
Jesus. He himself declared, “Think not that I am come to
destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but
to fulfill. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass,
one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till
all be fulfilled.” Yet so many are eager for an excuse for
their actions. If the excuse please their own minds, they somehow
forget that which is pleasing to the Mind of God, that which has
been made plain in his commandments, in the teachings of the prophets,
and in the example of the avatars.
Contrary to the law of divine love, people throughout
the world criticize and condemn those who are not so much guilty
of evil deeds as they are the victims of other people’s
careless remarks and their prattle about things they little understand.
Thus Saint Germain has frequently admonished the Keepers of the
Flame to refrain from criticism, condemnation, and judgment, which
always snare the very ones who are engaged in these dark doings.
He counseled instead that they should call forth divine love daily
on behalf of all and especially in the administration of their
affairs.
Now, divine love is not always obvious. Sometimes
it is but a feeling in the heart. How foolish are they who judge
without knowing what really is in the heart of another, for so
often their judgments are unfounded save in the mass creation
of darkness that spreads as an infectious plague amongst the people,
causing them to eye one another suspiciously and to doubt the
integrity of the inner man.
Let us replace distrust in the world order with
confidence in the good inherent in man, with faith in the God
who has placed it there, and with that unity of God and man exemplified
in the mission of beloved Jesus. Let the children of darkness
continue in their condemnation of the children of the Light; by
divine decree they shall reap that which they have sown! Let the
children of the Light continue to build the constructive spirals
of the Spirit that tower over all; by divine decree they shall
also reap that which they have sown.
To lean upon the compassion of our Lord, to draw
close to his humility, and then to trace the great divine strength
God has placed in one’s own character, magnifying His good
in all—this is the way of salvation
that clearly directs man to higher spheres of thought and feeling.
Unless he pursue the quality of infinite grace, bestowed upon
man because he has learned to love, he will find himself the victim
of an entirely different quality—one
lacking in the graciousness of the Holy Spirit which enables the
individual to sense and fill the needs of others.
Pliability of the spirit is the fashion of the
Christ. Compassion for men’s ignorance goes hand
in hand with that sternness of the Law which compelled the Christ
to speak fervently to his disciples, “What, could ye not
watch with me one hour?” We often marvel at the great fountain
of devotion within the hearts of many, but we also admonish that
no reed of bitterness should ever be allowed to creep into man’s
world to separate him from the grace of God and from the sheepfold
of the Ascended Masters. How futile it is that the very ones who
are harnessed to their own changing personalities will allow the
personalities of others to become the objects of their ridicule
and scorn. Truly the Master’s way has always been “Father,
forgive them; for they know not what they do.”
Those who know what they do and why they do it
are the advanced disciples of our Lord. I gladly call them brother,
for they lean as I did upon the bosom of the Master. The idealizing
of the Masters requires more than the mental imaging of their
physical appearance or making a pilgrimage to the places where
they walked. Those who would be close to the Masters should realize
that their universal consciousness is wherever you are. We are
here and we are there, and we yearn to convey without further
delay the marvelous God-feeling that we have for Life! Never sanctioning
abortions of Life, we recommend that mankind walk circumspectly
with God and understand the meaning of Being itself.
Through the gates of birth and death pass many
souls. All were intended to move in pathways of divine love. Other
habitations not of God’s creation have come into being only
because man has provided thought-fields and force-fields of his
own unrealities without understanding or invoking the actualities
of divine grace. If men would only create themselves in the Image
of God, in the Image of Love, rather than spend their time creating
a God made after their own likeness, they would soon discover
for themselves how Love can literally sweep into all their activities
until darkness would no longer be without Light, but would disappear
in the sunburst of the reality of Cosmic Love.

"I tell you that all of man’s creativity is a manifestation
of God’s creativity which, through diligence and application,
man has earned the right to share. It is the all-power of God
that has created the magnificent qualities and opportunities
to master the physical universe that are inherent within Light
itself. For He has placed them there, right within the spectrum
of Light, color, and frequency. They hold His secrets which
mankind gradually wrest from the Hand of the Universal, but
which will surely return to the Universal unused unless people
begin to understand more about the grand purposes that are not
only inherent in Life but can also be perceived even in the
world of Matter on the periphery of the universal intelligence
and intent.
"I AM Zadkiel. I am concerned with man’s
correct use of the magnificent power of the violet spectrum. This
is my forte. It represents man’s power to forgive others
and to receive forgiveness from them. It represents mankind’s
power to be forgiven by God for errors they have made and also
to drop their accusative sense that seems almost to indict the
Godhead Himself for having sought to give them in the gift of
Life the gift of Himself.
"O mankind of earth, beware! Be wary of
those states of mind that seem to blame any part of Life. Have
you thought why blame exists? Is it not primarily because of man’s
failure to see what opportunity he has been given and because
of his failure to recognize and exercise that opportunity? Is
it really such a very small thing, after all, that mankind should
take their energy and hold it as a jagged concept of human hatred
and ill will to any part of Life? I do not think so, nor do the
Karmic Lords, nor does God Himself.
"It is our opinion that mankind should long
ago have overcome those aspects of human hatred which center on
various human polarities. After all, in their ignorance individuals
do embrace certain aspects of politics, religion, science—yea,
and of their own life. Holding to different poles of Reality and
unreality, who among mankind today possesses the ability to discern
good and evil, which is a fruit not of the Tree of Life, but of
the tree of the knowledge of good and evil?
"That sense of good which includes the sense
of evil has always driven mankind from Eden. The preference for
a knowledge of relative good rather than the knowledge of absolute
Good has always denied mankind the opportunity to eat of the fruit
of the Tree of Life and to live forever as a Cosmic Being. Through
man’s sense of limitation, through his criticism, condemnation,
and judgment of others, he has denied to himself the right to
be godlike; and thus he has allowed himself to fall asleep unto
his Father and to fall into the selfsame pits that humanity have
fallen into throughout the millenniums.
"It has never been God’s will to deny
the abundant Life to any of His children. Through the consciousness
of the living Christ by whom all things were created, man has
been liberally endowed with the anointing of the Holy Spirit which,
had he accepted it, would long ago have removed from him those
impediments that have irked his consciousness along the way and
prevented him from manifesting harmony and perfection in the physical
domain.
"Today, through the use of the violet transmuting
flame, through man’s awareness of the inborn Christ that
stands victoriously enshrined in Life but is denied by embodied
humanity, the world can at last welcome the perfection of the
New Age, the Golden Age of Truth, like unto the Golden Age of
Pericles, that shall come once again to those who look for it.
"And the early stirrings of that age of
victory shall be found in those forward-looking hearts that are
willing to make a break with a past that has never fulfilled either
their dreams or the dreams of God. These look to a future in which
the kingdom of heaven can become a reality—not
because they witness Christ in the garb of their own human opinions
of how He ought to manifest and with what body He ought to appear,
but because they are willing to accept Him and to 'see Him as
He is.'
"With this sense of victory and hope as
the year comes to a close, holding the portent of the beautiful
holiday season before man’s childheart, I urge upon all
that inward participation with cosmic law, and especially with
the law of love, which shall create a balm of forgiveness not
only for those who need the quality of mercy and have it not,
but also for one’s own advancement. That forgiveness may
be extended to all parts of the world as a cosmic laver in which
all may bathe is my prayer, for I assure you that it is not above
the service of an Archangel to pray.
"I hold near and dear the redemption of
humanity through their understanding of the power of the violet
transmuting flame—not only
through its use, but also through man’s individual awareness
of its tremendous action and power as a part of that spectrum
of Light which is so important to mankind although they do not
see it in all of its ramifications.
"I AM Zadkiel. My retreat over Cuba continues
to be active. It is a focus of the violet transmuting flame that
long ago drew Christopher Columbus to the shores of what you call
America. Today my legions are still actively drawing the souls
of mankind to the higher realms above our island; and we shall
ultimately restore freedom and justice to all in the physical
octave. We shall enhance the power of freedom in every country
upon this earth until the family of nations, the kingdoms of this
world become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ.
"I, Zadkiel, in the name of the living God,
have spoken.
"Abundantly for the expansion of the
violet flame in all nations . . . "

"For me to say that the churches of the world have not over
the centuries involved themselves or allowed themselves to be
involved in the activities of human greed and injustice would
be sheer falsehood. In my Son’s name, in my name, and in
the name of Heaven acts have been committed again and again which
are a perversity of the Spirit, which have denied bread to the
hungry while erecting altars of gold and silver. Yet in the eyes
of Heaven there is some justification for the adorning of the
temples of God and the honoring of the hosts of heaven with the
abundance of God that the matrix of His supply might be expanded
for all upon the altar of the Lord.
"Therefore, in dividing the word of righteousness
men must understand that condemnation of any act of man must be
tempered not only by justice and mercy, but also by the higher
criticism of the Divine Logos. Men must love God above all things.
For in loving God first, they will come to love all things, all
men, all the adornments of nature and the graces of life, both
seen and unseen, as the manifestation of God; and they will be
free of the desire to covet. Hence, wise is the man who does not
judge his neighbor but understands the nature of service to his
God, to his home, to his church, and to his fellowmen.
"By spreading abroad the sense of the abundance
of God as attainable by every man—'but
my God shall supply all your need'—each
man is imbued with the fire of sacred trust whereby he sees the
world as an abode of usefulness where dwell the Spirit of God
and the spirit of usefulness and the harmony of the artisans that
can work together and spread the balm of the true kingdom everywhere.
"Let perish from your mind, then, the thoughts
of darkness, of greed, and the condemnation of human greed. For
by the illuminating sense that gives to each one the true knowledge
of the right attitudes of the spiritual thoughts that are the
thoughts of Christ, man can at last ascend in consciousness to
the place where true Christhood does manifest.

"One of the great tragedies that has occurred in connection
with mankind’s search for God is that religious men and
women have allowed the unfortunate spirit of condemnation, criticism,
and judgment to occupy the platform of their mind and emotions.
Whereas they may seek to justify their denunciation of one another,
saying that it is a matter of theological dogma, actually it is
often a matter of spiritual pride; moreover, they are beset with
that negative magnetism which allows spirits of diversity to use
their consciousness rather than the one Spirit of God.
"Quite frequently the charges they bring
to bear upon one another involve the very things which they themselves
are doing, while those whom they accuse may be wholly innocent.
Judgment is never wise. Unfortunately, those who practice it are
usually karmically guilty of attempting to destroy, either directly
or indirectly, the reputation of those whom they fear or of those
of whom they are jealous. Sometimes they act in good faith but
in poor judgment.
"Wise is the disciple at any point upon
the spiritual Path who remains unmoved by those condemnation techniques
which are actually extensions of the powers of darkness, moving
at times even through those who have performed spiritual utterances
or who have achieved a reputation as a spiritual teacher.
"The enemy, in the process of separating
man from God, utilizes the most devious methods. The human personality
is always involved. Beware then of those who are quick to accuse;
and remember that “the accuser of our brethren,” according
to the ancient writings, 'is cast down [into the earth plane],
which accused them before our God day and night.'
"Spiritual discrimination is a natural faculty
of the soul that is attuned to the Christ Consciousness and will
eventually prove the way that leads to the abundant Life and cooperation
with the cosmic Hierarchy. The spiritual Path is wonderful! It
is a manifestation of universal delight, the overflowing cup of
God-happiness.
"Instead of critically scanning those you
meet and allowing yourself to have your happiness disturbed, seek
to convey a blessing upon all. Greet all with the love of the
God Flame that is within and proceed, if you can, to let that
Flame work the change in mankind that is wholly constructive.
If, however, the peace and the love which you send to others in
the name of The Brotherhood is rejected by them, your energy will
return to you and you will find that peace and love manifesting
within your own soul as they proceed to set up the matrices of
those tests which will one day show them the error of their ways.
"Be not unduly concerned over those who
seek to make you uncomfortable or to disturb the peace of your
soul. Know that the laws of God are inexorable; they cannot be
broken. Each violation must one day be adjusted. Just see to it,
beloved ones, that the peace of a right attitude
—not that of self-righteousness,
but that of divine righteousness—remains
upon your heart’s altar, a flame that no human emotion can
quench, a spark of universal joy that spreads the panacea of cosmic
healing everywhere throughout the universe.
"I AM and I remain the advocate of
that peace which governs the emotional tides of life and manifests
the victory of the Christ,"
|
|
"Consider all the beauty of life which can be. Perceive this
as pure gold. All causes of unhappiness, every vibration of discord,
fear, doubt, suspicion, condemnation, criticism, judgment, self-righteousness,
and all negative traits are part of either the human mold or the
mowlde which must be purged as dross before purity can so regenerate
a lifestream as to enable the individual to partake of the waters
of life freely.
"It is not enough that men come to drink when the invitation
from higher sources has gone forth. They must make new skins to
retain the new wine of infinite goodness and purpose. This is
spiritual alchemy; and wise are they who first master it in themselves
before attempting to govern the elements in others or in nature,
for thus is karma justified by wisdom and rendered benign."

" . . . I bow to the flame that burns on the altar of your
heart. By love and love alone you shall conquer.
"Be not moved when surrounded by those who
do not bear the flame of Christ’s love in their hearts,
for they shall not prevail. Do not engage in argument or criticism,
condemnation and judgment. Do not engage in gossip. For by so
doing you may sooner or later lose your soul. Instead, seal your
lips and simply say in your heart: 'Peace, be still and know that
I AM God.'
"And so, my beloved friends, with
fond hope for the future, and with memories of our past together,
I seal you in this hour. Rest assured, I shall return to deliver
my dictations to you in future visits of the Messenger if you
prepare the way for her coming."

" . . . Therefore resolve this day to establish resolution
with your Inner Christ and do not assume that you automatically
have it! For the standards of the Christ must be the measure of
the Christ and the measure of a man or a woman as to what Christhood
each one can contain.
"Do not, therefore, set for your Holy Christ
Self, for your Messenger or for this entire Mystery School your
human standards of what ought to be and what ought not to be.
I tell you what ought to be and is, and that is the descent of
the Lord God himself in hours when you know it not.
"The Lord God, even Alpha and Omega, comes
as the proverbial thief in the night for the testing of souls
at any hour. And these tests must be passed at the level of Christhood,
not at the level
of the human consciousness of compromise that says: 'This is our
standard. This is our human standard and it is right, and we will
have our own code of honor among ourselves.' And yet it is a tarnished
honor, beloved ones.
"God has a right to test you, to love you,
to chasten you, to teach you, to draw back the curtain of pride
and allow you to see what is puffed up by your own ego or what
is trumped up by the flattery of other egos. All of this exposure
of the ego is a parting of successive veils of self- ignorance.
And veils are parted and veils are parted again until you see
the naked soul face to face and the inner heart, the inner spirit,
the inner essence and what about each of these is real.
"You know that you have a high percentage
of water in the chemical makeup of your physical body. Take away
the water and what is left? Is there salt that is worth its savor?
Is there a mind that can cogitate beyond the frame of the human
brain? Is there identity that can hold the flaming torch of Peace
and not be moved?
"Do not think in your human pride, beloved,
that by some years on the Path in this life somehow you have reached
the level where you can judge what Hierarchy ought to be, what
angels ought to do, what Masters ought to do as you call upon
them, as though you could adjudicate all matters of the organization
of the Great White Brotherhood.
"Understand that all who serve the Brotherhood
anywhere on earth or in the mystery schools are here for good
reason, some to finish up unfinished business and some to balance
their karma for the betrayal of mystery school upon mystery school,
which has necessitated their taking the grade again and again.
"I say, to receive the power of Peace, to
continue to walk the walk of the pilgrim of Peace, be humble before
your God. Don’t be a know-it-all but come to a lawful reverence
for those things that ought to be revered. Have a sense of holiness
in the presence of one another’s Christ Self and a sense
of the holiness of the flame that burns in the heart of the one
that sits next to you, before you, behind you. Have a sense of
awe of the temple of God and help those who do not keep their
temples clean or their minds in the correct geometry of God.
" . . .For if by free will people choose
war and choose to engage in the warlike energies of the Nephilim
in daily conversation that grates in the not-so-great subtleties
of criticism of this and criticism of that and backbiting against
this and backbiting against that, even against the Gurus
we have sent, then not even all the legions of Peace from the
entire Spirit-Matter Cosmos could quench the hellfires of war
upon this earth.
" . . . the resolution you can have every
day at sunset is that you resolve with your God that you will
not allow this difficulty, this argument, this disagreement, this
war going on in your life to in any way come between you and your
God or between you and the God-flame within another. And therefore
you seal the schism in the sacred fire of God, in the blue lightning
of God and you pursue the path whereby you look to meet each soul
halfway, you look for ways to compromise, you look to achieve
mutual understanding, you look to give mercy freely and to restore
an injured soul to equilibrium and to a point of personal dignity.
"Forgive and ask to be forgiven even when
you think you are not in the wrong. Do this because you live by
the Master's code of forgiveness. Do it to give another the opportunity
to do the same, and do it with sincerity. For there are many actions
you may take in life wherein you may truly say to yourself that
you will not know until you have ascended into the kingdom of
God whether or not such and such an action was a compromise of
the Law or was a manifestation of a love so great that you were
willing to make karma to save another soul, to heal another soul
even though you knew at the time that you were crossing the line
of the laws of society and perhaps even the laws of God.
"There are complicated issues in the lives
of all people and complex decisions that everyone is confronted
with in a lifetime. What is important is this-that no matter what
takes place, you make your resolution with your Christ Self, with
El Morya, with your God and with the lineage of the Lord
Sanat Kumara, by which you are personally and individually sponsored."
. . . Yes, beloved, this is a planet of war.
"When have there not been the Nephilim
wars upon earth?
"When have there not been family feuds,
rivaling clans, gang warfare and rivaling political factions?
Why, even heads of states and nations have had those who oppose
them brutally murdered.
"War must cease if a golden age of Aquarius
is to come. We say, begin with yourselves and use the Lord's mantra
of peace and his mighty shield for the guarding of the solar plexus.
Rejoice to check off each day that you have said, 'Peace, be still!
Peace, be still! Peace, be still and know that I AM God!' or when
you can say at the end of that day, 'Truly I have not allowed
an incorrect vibration to emanate from this place of the sun (the
solar-plexus chakra), which is the place of the golden sun of
Peace.'
"Onward, Lightbearers of this age! Onward!
My teaching is for your refinement of soul and mind and heart.
"Depart, then! Depart, then! Depart,
then, from nests of gossip and unseemly conversation. Rather be
with Mary, your Mother. Rather be in her heart and know that through
that Immaculate Heart all things shall be fulfilled in Cosmic
Christ Peace."

"Those who have irresponsibly used
alchemical techniques, whether in ignorance or with the intent
of bringing harm to other lifestreams, have in fact brought about
great harm to themselves. Others who harbor feelings of criticism,
jealousy, and irritation concerning the actions and accomplishments
of friend or foe may create just as much harm as those whose malice
is intended. Gossip itself is one of the most deadly forms of
black magic and can bring about the physical death of its victims.
"Seeing that all harm eventually returns
to the one sending it forth, would it not be well for all true
alchemists to take the vow of harmlessness, at the same time recognizing
that the defense of truth and freedom sometimes necessitates making
a choice between the lesser of evils?
"I urge, then, that all understand the need
to magnetize the grand design of God for all parts of life. Naturally,
everyone cannot be expected to be in sympathy with your aims.
After all, on the great ladder of souls ascending progressively
(hopefully toward the light of purpose), there are many levels
of attainment.
"None should condemn those of lesser
understanding or do aught except to emulate those of greater understanding.
Above all, do not be jealous of those who may be more successful
than you in their application of the science of intermediate alchemy.
Remember that it is practice that makes perfect, that it is motive
that transfigures design, that it is beauty that transfixes the
soul."

"Little does the beginning alchemist realize the need for
a spiritual alliance. If men are critical of the appearance of
oppositional aspects in religious endeavor such as struggles among
the brethren, their ungodly attitudes, their criticism, condemnation,
and judgment of one another, let them realize that that which
is below is not the product of that which is Above, but remains
a part of human creation which is no real part of God.
"It is to genuine spiritual brotherhood,
then, that we would direct your attention, for the alchemist who
seeks but his own unfoldment can never manifest aught but a relatively
weak potential. Those who ally themselves with the Brotherhood
of Light are utilizing the functional power of the Great Alchemist
not as a mighty ocean pouring through a narrow inlet, but as the
great ocean roaring to the perfection of itself. Thus in all true
striving, the hand, aware of the head, blesses the feet that march
in progress toward an appointed goal.
"Freedom, then, is a name and a game, but
the stakes are very high. The Great Alchemist demands absolute
obedience from every adherent and from all who would practice
the game of victorious becoming."

"Aggressive mental suggestion is the germ warfare of the
fallen ones. You must hold up the shield of the archangels and
wield the sword of the Spirit to deflect the arrows of their outrageous
consciousness. And they are raging in the stalls of the astral,
like the Devil, that roaring lion, seeking whom they may devour.
"The fallen ones are organized. They have
taken the consciousness of love, which is the very order of a
cosmos, and perverted it to their own use. They have organized
a warfare of the Spirit, projecting their vials of astral microbes,
astral viruses, deadly toxins which they would inject into the
mental and emotional bodies of mankind through that which we have
called aggressive mental suggestion.
"You can identify this energy. You can know
it well. For at any moment of the day or night when you feel waves
of irritation and mild dislike and a separation from brothers
and sisters on the Path through barbs of criticism and waves of
anxiety and nervous tension and you feel your energies seized
with a certain dislike for this or that individual or an action
of intense condemnation or judgment of a co-servant who works
side by side with you in the field of the Lord, know that the
Devil has sent his angels, even Satan who has deceived the whole
world.
"And though he be bound for a thousand years
by Michael the Archangel of the Lord, who 'cast him into the bottomless
pit and shut him up and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive
the nations no more,' his angels enter into combat with the sons
and daughters of God. This is Armageddon. This is the warfare
of the Spirit 'against principalities, against powers, against
the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness
in high places.'
"You must be alert; for where there is gossip
and where there is the maligning of the image of the Mother or
her children, where there is the tearing-down of the activities
of those who are serving—no
matter how imperfectly—the
cause of the Brotherhood, know that there are the fallen ones
lurking in your midst to destroy the works of God on earth.
"Hearken not to their counsel! Hearken to
the Lord. Do not respond to their turbulence, their riptide of
emotional energy which they unleash at the feet of the children
of the light! Do you not know, O blessed ones, how they gather
the clouds of darkness and the grids and forcefields of mankind’s
hatred and concentrate the misqualified energies of an entire
city or a nation against one soul who is taking his stand for
the light of truth?"

"You may live your life in a straitjacket if you pursue perfection
at the human level and be so
unpleasant and so impossible [to live with] as to find that no
one would ever want to follow in your footsteps. And yet that
[idolatrous] tendency lingers even when chelas are not aware that
they have it.
"Let us say, beloved, that the mark of
one who has this [bent] in his psychology to manifest human perfection
is the mark of spiritual pride. It is also the mark of one who
engages in excessive self-condemnation, which by and by becomes
the condemnation of others. And so you see, beloved, that expectation
that one should be a human god is antithetical to the path of
Maitreya.
"I ask you to look at this so that you may
shed the snakeskin that some have brought of their inheritances
from various nations around the world where this consciousness
is so prevalent as to be ingrained, and we find that people do
not even realize that this [tendency] has been instilled in them
by the Nephilim gods themselves [as genetic tares sown among the
genetic wheat].
"And so, beloved, imperfections are always
with the saints. It is not that you mourn them but that you are
reminded that the human has the propensity to err, that the human
is an imperfect vessel for the perfection of the Christ and that
the imperfections that linger on the path of sainthood are not
so vastly important to the spiritual overseers of the planet as
they may be to yourselves. Blessed ones, there is the perfecting
of the heart and the soul and the mind that is often neglected
by those who have vanity and spiritual pride and continually expect
the human flesh-and-blood person to be that perfect model and
role model of the chela.
"I do not say these things by way of exonerating
any from indulgence in human consciousness that is dangerous to
themselves and that does set a bad example, especially to children
and new students. I do say, beloved, that you should strive diligently
to root out those things that you suppose would not be pleasing
to your Christ Self.
"But to measure oneself on the Path one
should look to one's heart capacity to love one another, one's
heart capacity to be compassionate and merciful, to be profoundly
understanding of the burdens of another, to be able to give that
love in the purest sense [that] is such a strong holding of the
immaculate concept that people are healed by the very gaze, by
the very flow of light [passing from your Presence to that] one
[for whom you keep the flame of Divine Love].
"Blessed hearts, many who come to
this Community are perhaps "diamonds in the rough" who
have not had the perfect tutoring [of the soul] or the background
in all of the proper manners and behavior. Some have had [a] fragmented
development of the psyche in childhood and [they] have a difficult
time in dealing with that which is in the subconscious that they
do not understand at all. Some do not even know when they need
counseling or when it is necessary to have therapy."

"Thus I say, heal and be healed of the sinful sense and the
record of sin, and go and sin no more! And use the mantra of the
healing of sin as taught to you by Jesus. I speak of the judgment
call; for by calling forth the judgment, with Christ-discrimination,
of the wrongful ways of oneself or another, one places therefore
[between oneself and all negative human karma] the power of Christ
for the binding and the exorcism and the casting out of that [specific]
wrong [and all wrong in general], thus liberating the individual
[and many] to be free from the enslavement of sin and sin-enslaving
demons and discarnates.
"The judgment call, therefore, is not a
call of condemnation but of liberation of all people. Thus we
judge the unreal and cast it out. It is no more and we are free
to embrace."

"Blessed hearts, the Messenger does bear a great burden of
Light from those of us who keep the Mother Flame. And she has
not in any way turned back or denied the intensity of our presence
that we place over and through her body, for she knows that the
Divine Mother must be manifest physically.
"You must see [to it], then, that the dweller-on-the-threshold
within you is bound and that all substance of hatred of the Mother
in the unconscious is consumed, which means, beloved, that there
must be no strife or argumentation or harsh words or dissonance
between any of you. For it is the breaking of a mother’s
heart and it is your “ignore-ance” of your own Divine
Mother, your own human mothers and the office of Mother.
"In deference to the Mother, her children
do not squabble and grumble and come into conflict one with the
other. Therefore know, beloved, that you will have to settle these
problems that you bring upon yourselves, for we will not allow
the Messenger to be taken to the level of settling the problems
of squabbling children.
"You must get along with one another and work together and
rise above the pettiness and the smallness of the mind. You must
recognize that it is a major challenge to be in two worlds, and
that is the challenge that the one who holds the office of Messenger
must accept in order to have that mantle.
"It is a stressful situation upon the body.
And when you as Chelas with a capital C agree to be the manifestation
of your Morya, you will take on some of that very same stress.
To bear the burden of the Lord of the Chohan of the First Ray
by asking to be his representative and the vessel for that Ascended
Master to step through the veil, beloved ones, [is a sacrifice
that is not without commensurate reward].
"When you know the presence of the
lower self and the presence of an Ascended Master in the same
place, you will come to understand that this is no small challenge.
And you will recognize that the harmony of your being with that
Master and with that presence does bring great Light to the Earth.
But the greater the Light, the greater the opposition to that
Light."

"[N]or did I believe until lately, . . . that I should be accused
of being the enemy of one Nation, and subject to the influence of another;
and to prove it, that every act of my administration would be tortured,
and the grossest, and most insidious mis-representations of them be
made (by giving one side only of a subject, and that too in such exaggerated
and indecent terms as could scarcely be applied to a Nero; a notorious
defaulter; or even to a common pick-pocket)." —George
