"Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice, ye people of God! For yours is the salvation at hand. Claim it, and claim it for all. And know that God is truly your defense and your defender.

"I seal you in the immense power of Peace. Thus I speak quietly. For the power of Peace itself, beloved, is all that you require—is all that you require.

"The power and the presence of Peace that you feel in this hour are yours to claim and to internalize forever. And with that self-discipline you shall know truly the empowerment of the Sixth Ray, whereby your Lord Christ did conquer Death and Hell."

Oh, as I contemplate the vast mysteries of cosmos, were it not for the sustaining power of that will divine in my life and myriad angels who also succored me in my hours of travail, I should not have reached the goal or been able therefore to assist you to attain your own.

I am grateful to welcome you to the Heart of the Inner Retreat, the place consecrated for our worship of the one God. I am grateful for your sustaining grace and a momentum worldwide of these devotees who have seen that star of the will of God and are determined to bring its fruits to their families, communities, and states.

I would tell you that if there were a moment in history when I should choose to embody and live for the betterment of mankind, it would be in this hour of 1984. I come to encourage you in the way of standing for the Light and assisting the progress and the healing of nations and hearts.

I would give you, then, a morsel of my own—my sense of compassion not alone for people everywhere but in fact and indeed for the individual. As I once wrote, “The orphans of the Spirit are our concern” <1>—those who have not been tutored in the inner Light and know not the way to go.

Many of you understand the journey of Jesus our Lord to the Far East, and you understand the purpose of his journey taken when a teenager, as many of you who are here today are. It was in pursuit of the teachers of the Far East and a teaching itself. It was preparatory to his final years in Palestine. <2>

And so he did meet the great lights of India, and he did take the teachings of Hinduism and Buddhism and make them come alive. And he did challenge, therefore, the priesthood, the classes who denied to the poor the full flowering of that Spirit. And he preached to the poor and he gave them back the dignity of life. And for this, they who held the reins of power in religion sought to take his life as they did later in Palestine.

Beloved ones, I point out to you one of the most pernicious errors of orthodoxy this day, and it is the lie that Jesus is the only Son of God, and furthermore that Jesus came into embodiment in the full mastery of Christhood and did not himself have to follow the Path and realize his own inner God-potential before beginning his mission.

These things are plain in scripture, but the scriptures have been read and reread so many times that the true intent is no longer heard by the soul. The layers of misinterpretation and then the removal of the very keys themselves have given to Christianity today a watered-down religion that does not have the fervor or the fire to meet the challengers of civilization—whether it be in World Communism or in pornography or all manner of perversion or immorality that does steal the light of the soul. [highlighted by webmaster]

Beloved ones, I tell you, nothing can move forward in life unless the individual has a true understanding of God and his relationship to that eternal Spirit. Therefore, realize that Jesus did not come from God a new soul, born for the first time in his incarnation in Nazareth. Nay, I tell you! He was embodied as Joshua, the military hero of the Hebrew people. <3> He was embodied as Joseph and wore his coat of many colors as the favorite son and did go through all manner of trial and persecution by his own brothers who were jealous of him; and yet he found favor in the sight of Pharaoh. <4>

Beloved hearts of light, you know the soul of Jesus in Elisha, the disciple of the prophet Elijah. <5> And you know that Elijah came again in the person of John the Baptist as was prophesied and as it is written. <6> Jesus gave to his own disciples the confirmation that this John the Baptist was Elias come again, <7> thereby ratifying the teaching of reincarnation. Yet it is still denied by those Bible-quoting Christians who have determined to say it is not so. And I will tell you why they say it is not so: it is because they do not want to accept their accountability for their own past karma!

You cannot believe in reincarnation unless you will also stand, face, and conquer the deeds of the past. Thus, the nonaccountability, due to the upbringing of children in the West today, does not prepare warriors of the Spirit to meet the inroads that are being made by all forces of lust and greed after this nation’s light and after this citadel of freedom. [highlighted by webmaster]

Understand, then, that your understanding of the one God and the one Christ enables you to see that that one God and one Christ has vouchsafed to you the I AM Presence and Christ Self as the manifestation of pure divinity—not many gods, but one God. And the pure Son of God is the universal Christ whose body and bread are broken for you. And therefore, as partakers of the Light, as one with the Holy Christ Self, you also may pass through the initiations of discipleship as Jesus did. And you ought to look forward to and expect the fullness of that Christ dwelling in you bodily.

Wherefore evolution of a spiritual nature? Why have the prophets come? Why have the avatars appeared? Because they are favorite sons and all the rest are sinners? I tell you, no! And it is the most pernicious lie, as I have said, for it stops all short of the mark of that high calling in Christ Jesus of which the apostle spoke. <8> And none dare become heroes or leaders or examples. And those who do are set on a pedestal of idolatry rather than seen as the example!

What one can do, all can do. And this is the philosophy of the Darjeeling Council that we would impart. We would quicken and enliven you, as God has empowered the saints to do, to unlock that potential of your heart, that divine spark, and to show you that lifetime after lifetime you have been moving toward that point of the courage to be who you really are and not to accept the philosophy that you are evolved from animals and that you cannot exceed the matrix of the animal creation. [highlighted by webmaster]

Beloved ones, what shall be left of a planet?—a scientific humanism? What shall be left?
—world socialism and all shall become drones in a planetary movement controlled by moguls of power East and West?

Beloved hearts, this is the goal of sinister forces. And let none deny that there is an Antichrist. <9> For the Antichrist is every force within and without the psyche of man that would put down that true and living God within you. Realize that this is not of necessity a person who will appear at a certain time, but it is the decision on the part of many to embody the destructive forces of the universe to put out the light of freedom, nation by nation.

Without the understanding of the equation of Armageddon, without the understanding of free will, it is impossible to realize that some have chosen the left-handed path of destruction, of the Lie, and of the Murderer. And without accepting this, it is impossible to understand so-called human behavior, which is not human at all, but it is devil behavior and the behavior of devils incarnate.

Do I sound like a fundamentalist Christian? Well, I am! [applause] Remember well: I came first to adore. <10> I was transformed. I was transfigured. I was, if it need be said, the first “born-again Christian.”

Beloved hearts, I say it only that you realize that saints East and West, whether or not they have contacted Jesus the man in his life or since, have had the conversion to Christ. And they have perceived that Christ in Buddha. They have perceived that Christ in Krishna. And let none deny it, for when you deny the Son of God in one who has outpictured that virtue and love, you effectively close the door to that Light coming into your own temple.

Thus, you see, a religious teaching that denies the calling of the individual to embody the living Christ is, in fact, calculated by dark forces to deny the open door to divinity to every son of God. John said, “Beloved, now are we the sons of God . . . , ” <11> and this he learned with his head upon the breast of Jesus. <12>

Therefore, understand the meaning of the trek to the Himalayas by the teenager Jesus. Those lost years—eighteen in number—show the great preparation of this soul of light, this Son of man, this one who truly embodied the full effulgence of our God. It shows that by his example he left for you a record of the path of discipleship—that it is true, that it is legitimate.

And in the ancient texts of the Vedas and the teachers of India, stored in the Himalayas and held in the heart of unascended masters, there is that living record—the law written in the very body temples of those who have kept the vigil of that which was held in the ancient temples of Lemuria. For those teachings of the law of God that were there were transported to the caves and retreats of the Himalayas before the sinking of that continent. Thus, going back, far back beyond all recorded history, you find the lineal descent of those who have come to earth for a single purpose: to seek and find the thread of contact with Almighty God and to demonstrate by their lives a living Truth.

Men may tamper with scripture. They may rewrite the codes of law to suit themselves and their lowered and lowering standards. But they may never change the records of akasha. In akasha
—as the subtle energy and force that permeates the planet and your auras—you will find the record of all past incarnations of yourself, of all previous incarnations of masses of lifewaves who have come here from other planetary homes. You will find the records of civilizations.

You will find that today those who write the stories of motion pictures and books—such as Taylor Caldwell, who wrote as a child of the story of Atlantis <13> —have been given the gift of tying into these akashic records. And they have sat down and written about subjects concerning which they knew nothing. And not only have they recorded for people all sorts of invaluable information that would give keys to the past and past glories of civilizations of great light and scientific achievement, such as in the Edgar Cayce readings—but they have also shown a teaching and a path and an understanding for each individual soul to find his true roots all the way back to the birth in the heart of the Great Central Sun and the descent to incarnation here.

What for incarnation in a darkened world and a darkened star? Why put on veils of flesh? It is because the soul demanded free will and the right to experiment in the universe of God, and the Father accorded the request. And they went forth as from the bosom of Abraham, from the Great Causal Body, and evolved into denser and denser spheres. And, alas, came those hours when the fallen angels did tempt them away from their first love and that of the God Most Holy. And there began to be the densification of the flesh and the mind, and people lost the contact with their God. They forgot the name I AM THAT I AM.

And God sent the knowledge of the true monotheism in the midst of pagan cultures, even to Ikhnaton <14> and then to Moses. And once again the great I AM became the focal point as the sun—symbol of the Presence of God—the many hands extending as Ikhnaton saw it, the power to move a nation as Moses perceived it, and today the source of your strength and your healing as you perceive the same Presence.

They may attempt to divide the body of God upon earth by religious schism and argumentation, by placing the emphasis on the letter of the law. We have seen enough of inquisition in our time! We have seen enough of the wars of Protestant and Catholic! What is the net gain? The only true gain on the path of religion is the Spirit, the Holy Ghost with the individual and then moving nations—Yahweh moving among his people, who is still able to draw out of America those servant-sons of God who will truly manifest an example of the path of freedom and discipleship with Saint Germain, the beloved Joseph. <15>

Beloved hearts of light, you see that the return to discipleship is necessary, for a people have forgotten their God. They have not understood the true coming of Jesus and therefore they do not understand why the saints have lived, why they have sacrificed, why they have left a record
—because the emphasis is not on you, but upon Christ nailed to a cross.

This will afford you nothing unless you yourself realize that all that was in this Son of God can be yours. And the imitation of the path of Jesus Christ is surely our calling and our teaching. It is the fundamental teachings of the Spirit. It is the teachings given to the apostles. It is the anointing of the apostles. It is the transfer of fire, heart to heart! It is a leaping and a speaking
in tongues. It is the power of our God with us unto healing. And yes, it is poring over the ancient scriptures. John the Beloved himself took from the Vedas: “In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with Brahman.” Blessed hearts, such fragments, such husks are left.

And thus, where does a nation stand when challenged by the taunting of a Kaddafi or terrorists or Cubans or Communists? It is divided and weak. Where does it stand when there are those who tamper with the money supply and the economy? Where does it stand when the children cannot read and write and cannot rise up to become leaders and representatives of still the greatest nation on earth?

Where do a people stand when they do not have recourse to Almighty God and his Spirit in them? What can they do when their bodies are beset by drugs, when they are caught up in violence, when all manner of pleasure and entertainment is the first thing they think of when their jobs are through? I tell you, if America is to be saved from that which is plotted by the dark ones on this planet, there must be a rising fervor and a return to first principles both in church and state.

How shall we tell them? How shall they be God-taught when the false pastors have invaded the temples and denounced even the very communion of saints which we enjoy with you and you with us in this Spirit of the Great White Brotherhood? Brothers and sisters of light on earth have a right ordained by Jesus Christ to commune with brothers and sisters in heaven, not by psychic or astral means, but by the true Holy Ghost. And the Holy Ghost is the Comforter and the Teacher who has come to you to bring all those things to your remembrance which Jesus taught you. <16>

When did he teach you those things that you are now reminded of? When? Were you all there in Galilee? It is not quite possible for the tens of thousands and millions who ascribe to the path of the Brotherhood on this planet to have all been there in the flesh. And thus, Jesus spake to all of you to whom he preached in all octaves of being in that hour and mission. For the Son of God truly spoke from the etheric retreats, and all the world heard him.

Do you think his fame spread only by the apostles or only by the grapevine, as they say in India? I tell you, no. The power of the presence of Jesus Christ in the earth has been the power to contact every living soul these two thousand years with the inner knowledge and the sense of the honor of Christ’s presence in them. And that teaching is ongoing no matter what is said in their mosques or synagogues or temples. [highlighted by webmaster]

For the living Christ does shepherd his own, nation by nation, and for this reason: People understand right and wrong, they know what ought to be and ought not to be, they know what is evil if they will allow themselves to perceive it. And therefore, the Standard lives. The honor code is present with the comings and the goings of philosophers and psychologists and all the rest who now say, “this is right,” and then say, “this is wrong.”

Relative good and evil is not the story of your life. Put that aside and recognize that it is the Absolute Good of God present with you that is the power to devour the forces of Absolute Evil, first and foremost being that tyranny over the soul and the spirit and the heart of man.

We, the Darjeeling Council, assembled in this hour of summer solstice, do address our chelas worldwide here and in the Spirit. And we summon you (as has been said before but we say it again) to a new birth of freedom—this time to a spiritual birth of freedom.

I commend you to the seeking of the presence with you of the Holy Spirit. I commend you to a path of devotion. I commend you to the path that has always worked for those who have truly and sincerely applied it just as Jesus taught it: prayer and fasting, sacrifice and devotions, prayers to God and service to the poor and the meek. This is the path of the balancing of karma, putting on the consciousness of God day by day, being the instrument of the flow of the mighty River of Life. [highlighted by webmaster]

This is the message of the discipleship of the teenager Jesus who went to find his teacher Maitreya, who went to sit at the feet of Buddha who had come and gone five hundred years before his journey. He came to sit at the feet of those masters who had gone on before him. And he stopped at Luxor to be initiated in the first steps of the initiation temple, when he could have been accorded the full mantle of the Master of that temple. <17>

Jesus gave obeisance and deference to the order of hierarchy. And this you see well-recorded in scripture in the hour of his transfiguration—the Father and the Son ordaining the presence of the ascended master Moses, the presence of the ascended master Elijah. They talked with Jesus, they spoke with him! Ascended masters spoke with the unascended Son of God; and his disciples Peter, James, and John were witnesses and they wrote of it. <18> And it is set forth in the Gospels. <19>

This is the example that is unmistakable of the chain of hierarchy. It illustrates that there were some who ascended and were in heaven with God before Jesus—such as Enoch, who walked with God and was not, for God took him. <20>

Thus, the ancients who went before were taken up by God. Thus you realize that the path Jesus followed was never an exception, was not something unique and exceptional where one life should atone for the sins of the many, <21> but the example of what had been done again and again and again—always the avatar coming to give to the disciples on earth the example that there is a way out of death and hell and the round of suffering. There is a way of self- transcendence. Death is not the end of life.

And in the parting of the veil in that hour it is well to be prepared, to have woven the Deathless Solar Body which is referred to by Jesus as the wedding garment. And he said to that one who came into the marriage feast, “Friend, how camest thou in without the wedding garment? Bind him, hand and foot, and cast him into outer darkness!” <22>

The wedding garment is the spiritual body that you weave with the Word and the Work of God. It is the fiery aura of the saints, and it is the means of transporting the soul to those octaves of light whence you descended into this lowly estate of flesh, as it is put—and to which you shall return.

Beloved ones, the prayer “Thy kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven” is the prayer of the saints who would bring that rarefied light of the etheric octave into the physical, who would bring to this earth plane a Utopia perhaps—a new world, a New Atlantis, a way of life that can exceed this one, where people can be free from pain and terminal diseases caused not alone by their karma but caused by the chemicals, the impure foods, the substances they take in—a world free from war and the eruption of violence from the bowels of those whose free will has been used to commit them to a path of error.

And error leads to unreality. And unreality leads to insanity. Thus, the insane stalk the earth taking innocent life. The insane take the life of the unborn and call it woman’s right. Woman’s right to murder her child! Is she liberated? No! She is enslaved to a pain that gnaws within her for the rest of her life and in future incarnations until it is resolved.

Offering liberty, they sow corruption—corruption of the spirit and the soul and not of the body. And this is why the dangers of this age are so great. And this is why I say it is the greatest moment in all history for each and every one of you to make your statement and to establish that contact with God which all who have gone before you have made, and thereby become instruments of Light and spiritual power and healing and the holding of the balance of nations.

The overwhelming proof is on the side of the path of discipleship. It has a consistency over tens and thousands of years. You will not find any difference, save perhaps in a slight manner of form or ritual, in the paths of the saints East or West. There is no difference in the light of the eye or the shining of the aura or the power of the chakras or the beginning ability of transmutation and alchemy that comes into your life when you begin to invoke the violet flame.

The consistency of this path, side by side with the absolute inconsistency of the factions of Protestantism, of Catholicism, of Judaism, or of the Moslems who argue perpetually one with the other and remain separated and divided because they cannot agree on the letter! And they have left off from the true Spirit. And even in that spirit of ecumenism, beloved ones, you find that they have not come to the resolution of their doctrine nor have they given to their flocks the power of God to turn the tide of world conditions. [highlighted by webmaster]

One and all, understand the great joy as a child rejoices in his first step, the first word he can spell or read or identify on a sign, the first piece he can play on the piano, or a laurel wreath given at graduation. Understand that the path of achievement—striving, running in the race, winning the gold cup—is a path that mirrors the path of discipleship to all. It is the sense internally: “I have worked, I have mastered—God with me and by his grace. And because I know who I AM and God is with me, I can do these things.”

It’s like having it in your pocket. It is something you have done. When and if it should ever be
the case that a master do for the disciple what the disciple can only do for himself, the disciple will be just like the child or any of you. The person for whom something is given without responsibility, without effort and work, without inner achievement resents the individual who gives to him that reward without effort.

Thus, the false pastors who preach create in fact a servile relationship of sinners to a favorite son, and internally and subconsciously it is actually the hatred of Christ that is at work. It is a psychological maneuver of the fallen angels, preaching hellfire and brimstone and enormous fear and an angry God and the promise of everlasting hell and damnation to those who do not repent. These are the preachments of the Devil who has created an alternative religion to the true teaching of Jesus Christ.

Realize this: that many pastors who are thus indoctrinated are not of an evil bent but have simply followed the party line they have been given and that has been carried on for generations. The proof is in the pudding. The proof is in the action. Where are the results? Where are the results?

When Billy Graham goes to the Communist world and declares that all is well and Baptists have freedom and they ought to submit to their governments, <23> how is all well—when, not having the power to challenge Communism, they decide to give in and recommend that true Christians submit to the brutality that is going on yet today and the persecutions?

Who will cry out to the living God and take a stand and be willing to be a fool for Christ? [“We will!”]

Beloved hearts, we look here and there over the face of the earth and truly we declare that those isolated individuals such as Reverend Wurmbrand <24> who are determined to tell the true story of torture and torment of Christians—these are they whose voice of Truth will never be denied. The flame of freedom cannot be put out! It speaks in many, many hearts. We are here, summoning the mighty archangels to go forth with their legions of light to cut free those souls who are bound, to cut them free from astral nightmares of demons and discarnates that prey upon the mind and the body.

Who will take a stand and cry, “Outrage!”? Where are the Christian nations who ought to be standing in defense of the freedom-fighters in Afghanistan? Who of the most liberal and left- wing bent can justify Soviet takeover and destruction in Afghanistan? Who can approve the dropping of toys which when picked up by children maim them for life? Who can defend the system (in the name of Jesus, mind you) that results in the destruction of souls and nations one by one? Who can claim himself a Christian who does not run to their aid and provide that aid that must be had if that nation is to endure?

What is transpiring upon this planet, I tell you, is the result of the softness of religion itself and a dearth of religious leadership! Thus, we come to give to you our momentum—and the momentum of the Holy Ghost with us—that your fervor for freedom and for the will of God might take you into those avenues of your own choosing and of the leading of your inner self where you can champion human rights wherever you can draw the line, wherever you must draw the line.

For surely somewhere, some injustice must say to your heart: “I cannot live in the honor and integrity of my soul and allow this injustice to continue! I must take my stand. I must speak. I must inform. I must show that mankind need not go down into this degradation of the denial of the dignity of any man or woman or child anywhere on earth and his freedom to be and to find God!”

The entire purpose of life is finding God—finding God in yourself and your talents and your calling and your sacred labor—and endowing anything that you do with his Spirit. They may say otherwise, but when it comes down to the depths of the soul, no one in this world is happy until he has made his peace with his God, his I AM Presence. There are many who would deny this, yet are they truly happy? They say they are happy but they have not known the joy of Reality. Many are insane, many are bound, and yet do they take up the path toward God?

Why don’t they take up the Path? Is it because it has been given to them from childhood with such distaste, with such obvious flaw that they have become atheists and agnostics rather than hear the same old bromide Sunday after Sunday? Many people have learned to hate God in the churches because they have never been told that there is an exciting path waiting—the Homeward path that enables you day by day to know the joy of doing more for those in need because more of God is in you. [highlighted by webmaster]

Have you ever thought about that—that the churches turn more people away from God, the true and living God, the reality of the way of the cross, the reality of life as it ought to be? I can tell you without equivocation that the doctrines taught in America today in the mainline religions will never afford the people the ability to save this nation!

Do I preach a particular brand of religion? Nay. The teachings of the ascended masters incorporate the path that the mystical body of God has walked through all eternity. It is not even unique to this planetary system. It is the same descent of the soul unto the grand experiment in freedom and free will, meeting all forces that pretend to be the adversary when the only true enemy is within. And that is the ultimate knowledge: Man, know thyself and know thyself as God, and know that the only foe that can ever overcome in thy life is thine own fear or internal schism or compromise or failure to surrender truly to God.

Is this a church? I tell you, nay, it is more. It is a movement. It is a revolution back to the fundamentals of every avatar who has launched a path of freedom, developed specifically for the lifewaves or nations or times when they have come. Thus, you find nothing peculiar about saying a Buddhist chant or a Hail Mary or an Our Father or communing with Archangel Michael or speaking to Gabriel—nothing peculiar at all. Well, it was spoken of the Hebrews that they were a peculiar people, <25> and what was unique about them was that they knew their God.

I pray that this trek that you have made as a pilgrimage to our shrine of light, dedicated as the Western Shamballa, will afford you the opportunity for soul searching and that perhaps something we have said or written will be the spark to connect you to that God-potential that has been dormant for aeons.

It is the quickening that we would convey. It is the native power of God unto you. And it is especially the love of our bands and hosts for you personally as our brothers and sisters. We tarry on earth on behalf of you and millions of others who truly would do better if they knew better, who truly desire to know the Truth, and who persecute many righteous men thinking that they do God service. <26>

The path of the violet flame and the spoken Word, beloved, is certainly the path that can lift the accumulated debris of density of the centuries—the covering over of the chakras, the limiting of the human brain because it has lost the impulse of the crystal cord and the flow of light. Mankind do not need to wed the computer to gain superhuman powers, but only to unite with the living Christ.

I pray every day that this nation and all peoples on earth will not have to come to the knowledge of Truth through adversity, through nuclear war, through economic collapse. I trust you will also pray with me in this wise, for, beloved, the prayer of the righteous—those who use the righteous law, the right use of the law of the science of the spoken Word—availeth much. <27>

And thus, let us say:

Our heavenly Father, we beseech Thee in the name of the saints who have gone before and the precious people of this earth that enlightenment shall come by the might of the archangels, by the interactions of angels and men, and by the Holy Comforter.

Our Father, we ask you today and every day to bring healing, light, and comfort—peace and the awareness of the enemy of their souls.

O God, send thy Angel of Faith, Archangel Michael, to their aid! Send that holy one of God that they be not plucked from the screen of life in an untimely manner and therefore miss the opportunity to fulfill their divine plan and to glorify Thee.

Our heavenly Father, make us stewards of thy grace and thy abundant Life. Make us responsible in caring for the sick and the needy. Give us the understanding heart to walk many miles with our brother.

Our heavenly Father, we pray for every soul of Jesus on earth—all who are the lovers of his heart, all who truly worship Thee through him even though they have been limited by orthodoxy in some form.

I call to legions of Truth, and in the name of the Son of God, I, El Morya, call to the twelve legions of angels of the Lord Christ to descend for the rescue of the churches this day that they may be infilled with thy true Spirit and not the spirits of the night that seize their bodies and their chakras, causing them to writhe or dance or jump or scream or weep.

I demand, as the Chohan of the First Ray, the exorcism of the churches of those foul spirits and the exorcism of every form of demon taunting them away from the true and living Spirit of the Holy Ghost!

Maha Chohan, enter them now and purge them and let the living fire of true freedom and true worship be upon them. For these are thy hearts, our Father. Cut them free and let them become fierce disciples, taking the true stand for defense instead of advocating the pacifism of the Devil.

O living Word, as Thou hast written, I, too, have taken my pen this day and I have written my coded message in the hearts of my own. It is my forget-me-not.

Precious chelas of the will of God, in fervor and faith, fight the good fight and win ground for Reality. Bind unreality and illusion and set the captives free! For it is your calling and your desiring and all of your love fulfilled.

I remain with you as a mentor on the Path, ever desirous of assisting you, especially in your calls for God-government and the abundant life in the economy.

In the name of my teacher and friend of light, the Great Divine Director, in the joy of my co-worker Saint Germain, I AM El Morya Khan.

14. Thirty-three centuries ago, Ikhnaton, pharaoh of Egypt (c. 1375-1358 b.c.), introduced a revolutionary monotheism based on the worship of one God, ‘Aton’—represented in the symbol of a sun disk or orb with diverging rays, each ending in a hand. Ikhnaton believed that everything that lived had its being through the sun’s rays and that he himself was the son of Aton.

21. Through the coming of the avatar Jesus Christ and the two-thousand-year Piscean dispensation, there was the setting aside of karma for the Lord’s disciples and for the planet as a whole until they should attain to the level of self-mastery in Christ whereby they themselves could balance that karma through prayer and good works. In this hour, the karma is increased on the planet because the people of earth are now expected to bear their own burden (i.e., weight) of karma that has been set aside these two thousand years through the grace (Light) of Christ’s Presence. As it is written, “Every man shall bear his own burden” (Gal. 6:5), and “Not one jot or tittle of the law (of karma) shall pass till all be fulfilled” (Matt. 5:18).

23. In May 1982, evangelist Billy Graham spent six days in Moscow at a Soviet-sponsored conference of “religious workers” against nuclear war. He was reported as saying: “There is a lot more freedom here than has been given the impression in the States, because hundreds, thousands of churches are open.” Reverend Graham told the congregation of Moscow’s Baptist church that the Lord had given each one “the power to be a better worker, a more loyal citizen . . . In the thirteenth [chapter] of Romans we’re told to obey the authorities.” During his sermon, which bypassed the subject of religious freedom, a young woman in the balcony displayed a banner that read in English, “We have more than 150 prisoners for the work of the Gospel.” She was led away by several plainclothesmen. When questioned about the incident, Graham commented, “We detain people in the United States if we catch people doing things that are wrong.”

24. Evangelical minister Richard Wurmbrand—who has been called “the voice of the Underground Church” and “the Iron Curtain Paul”—began a relentless underground Christian ministry when the Communists seized his homeland of Rumania in 1945. He was subsequently arrested and subjected to fourteen years of torture and imprisonment, but never lost his faith nor ceased ministering to suffering cellmates. Today, through his international organization
—Christian Missions to the Communist World and its U.S. affiliate, Jesus to the Communist World, Inc.—Reverend Wurmbrand continues to provide spiritual/material relief to persecuted Christians. He has authored eleven books (published in over fifty languages) and has made numerous public appearances exposing the horrors of Communist oppression. His organization carries on a determined campaign to distribute Bibles to Christians in Communist countries, convert leftists and Communists to Christ, and educate the free world as to the dangers of Communism.

Jesus Christ

Become Agents of the Cosmic Christ!
I, Jesus, Have Called You
The Perfecting of the Soul as My Apostle
The Lord's Christmas Day Address 1990
Please Feed My Sheep!

Now from the heart of a cosmos I greet you, beloved, in this hour that you keep the vigil for the servants of God upon earth. I am come to you even as I ensoul the planet in my garments this day.

I come, then, holding the balance in the earth for all conditions untoward you observe and some you do not. I come that I might extend to you even the thread of contact with my heart whereby you should also become agents of the Cosmic Christ to hold this balance to that end and for that purpose that the children of the Light might enter in to this sheepfold.

These are the "other sheep" <1> and therefore these souls are gathered. I place my seal upon them but you must be myself as shepherd to go out and gather them.

Therefore all [of you] on this staff and beyond who have no better occupation shall now be God- taught that you might become spokesmen for the Great White Brotherhood, for myself [and] even for Magda.

Blessed ones, the Law has decreed that the hour may no longer advance that you are not equipped to speak the Word, to comfort, to counsel, to admonish, to raise up and to carry that child-man across the rapids and ultimately across the sea of samsara.

I am with you in this hour by the magnet of Love of the Great Central Sun. I demagnetize from you all those things of which you desire to be delivered, <2> those things which you are through with, throughly so.

Yes, beloved, if you can say to this or that state of consciousness, "Have done with it! I want it no longer!" and mean it with the fire of your heart, I will take it this day. Surely I shall. For the night is o'er, the day is come and it is the day of gladness of the Christ's descent into your temple.

I am that Christ! You are that Christ-potential emerging now into the fullness of your mission. The signs in the heavens and the earth all point to this day as the day of the Son of God appearing in you. Therefore let your mouths be unstopped! Let your ears be unplugged! Let your tongues receive the fire of seraphim <3> to consume all misuses of the spoken Word!

I, Jesus, have called you. And in this hour you shall be my manifestation where'er you go. This opportunity comes to you, beloved. Therefore I bid you to ride the crest of the wave; for when the wave of this dispensation moves on, it shall no longer be a choice. And therefore, fit into the cosmic scheme else jeopardize your mission and enter the possibility of becoming misfits insofar as the divine scheme is concerned.

There is a great panorama of life. This panorama unfolding is a giant mural that is in the grand hall of a magnificent building upon Sirius. Before you left that God Star aeons ago, you did study that mural and all of its portents for your life and the future. It does present on succeeding walls in other halls options and turning points, [showing] what shall be the outcome for those who choose a lesser path and what shall be the glory of the Lord upon those who continue to mount, to exert themselves, to move up on the high road, first through the foothills and the mountains and then on to the high places of solitude where only God and man are known.

Therefore, the consequences of all actions and turnings have been made known to all sons and daughters of God and even to the children of the Light in their time and season. Each one in his own heart and time is a prophet of his destiny, for he does read the same record written in his inward parts. And therefore, the consequences of choices are always known and people know what they should have done even at the time they did not do it.

Therefore, beloved, there is indeed a tide in the affairs of men and angels. I come on that tide of Light. I do even ensoul it.

May you contemplate how you can best deliver the message that has been brought to you. May you begin to write the story of your own conviction, your own conversion, your own inner knowing of your I AM Presence, your own confirmation of this path by your own telling and intelling of that Word that you have heard resounding from the altar yet which also originates with your own Spirit of the I AM.

May you come to understand how you came to know the truth of the mysteries of God. Contemplate step-by-step what was required for you and then you will understand what many
souls need as points of transition and understanding and then a lessening of the intensity—a going within, a retreat perhaps, a coming to the ranch.

Yes, beloved, souls have need of the necessary food and light and contact with the stars and a great sense of Love and belonging to the Mystical Body of God, which is in truth in heaven and on earth. By compassion and the flame of Love, by identifying with individuals who are at a certain place on the Path, you may personally assemble those teachings that you know are pivotal as turning points in the way.

This is surely the hour for the perfecting of the soul as my apostle. I call you to this, beloved, because it is the hour. It is a cosmic moment when this opportunity is come.

I tell you, my beloved, that I would bring to you the understanding of the first resurrection. <4> The power of that resurrection, beloved, is given to you by the Spirit of the Resurrection when you use the mantra of the resurrection written down by your beloved Mark.

Take that mantra, together with my mantra—"I AM the Resurrection and the Life!"—and know that resurrection's flame must first burn in your heart congruent with the threefold flame and then [it must] ignite the cells and atoms that have become chalices for that wavelength, [thereby] igniting the chakras. Thus prepare this body temple [by resurrection's flame], by violet flame and by the pure water and the pure diet that you need.

Thus, beloved, understand that you may walk the earth in the Spirit of the Resurrection, but the true initiation of the resurrection will come to you only after you have sought and achieved that fusion [of your soul] with your Holy Christ Self and that fusion with myself. For when you contain the fires of the resurrection, beloved, you possess the power (given unto you as an endowment) whereby you may endow other parts of life with a semipermanent immortality, [albeit] that full immortality is not defined until the ascension is attained.

But, beloved, if you desire the ascension, you must seek the resurrection. And if you desire the resurrection and to walk the earth as a resurrected one, then, beloved, you must seek that fusion [of your heart with my heart].

I will tell you about [the soul] who achieves the fusion and another who does not. The one who achieves it has a sense of her own sinfulness, her own uncleanness and her own worthlessness in that lowly estate of the flesh yet, confident in noble purpose and design from Elohim, [she] does embrace the true identity of self and does break the shackles and the barriers and the confinements and the prison house of the psychology of the lower self.

[She] does seek to enter in, does weave the wedding garment, does perfect that seamless garment day by day, does remember that the manifestation, though it may be in the lowly estate of the flesh, yet contains that pearl, yet contains the fire; and therefore [she] does amplify that fire, makes no pretense at being perfect but understands that I AM the All and that [I AM the] perfection in her—that the lesser vessel is the nothing while I AM the All.

I have given this teaching to Catherine <5> and other saints. Those who have truly understood
it have not felt debased when they acknowledged that they were the nothing and that I, the Christ in them, was the All. For they understood the process of displacement, the process of transmutation; and therefore [they] could come into the dignity and the integrity of the son, the daughter of God.

These are they who have received the washing of the feet and the cleansing of the blood. These are they who enter into that fusion by adoration, by love, by tears and by washing my feet with those tears and with the hair.

Beloved ones, I tell you, the one who does not enter in is the one who trots about with the self- image that the definition of chela is perfection. But [in that one's mind] the quality of perfection is not the perfecting of the heart but the perfecting of performance, the perfecting of movement, the perfecting of speech.

Now, if this [perfecting of modes] were done to the glory of God and [according] to the true inner and deep understanding of the indwelling Light, it would be a worthy goal. But those of whom I speak are those who come and go like martinets, even marionettes; and therefore stiff, stiff-jointed, stiffed in their mentality, they march about with a sense of spiritual pride, which they ignore that they have at all. They have no sense that they have missed the point and they cannot get through the eye of the needle any more than the camel can pass through. <6>

This is the mechanization-man response to the path of chelaship. It is an incorrect response, beloved, and it ends [where it began], in spiritual pride and ultimately in the "breaking" of that one, for the fire [of the heart] is not developed. [This response] is [born of mortal man's self-idolatry and his] desire to be a computer and a computerized one, a ["perfect"] robot creation! [It is born of thinking man's <21> desire not to think.]

The foundation of such individuals at the unconscious level is the absolute hatred of God in all manifestations. And therefore there is an anger that impels such individuals and that anger truly demands that God compensate them for their physical, mental, material perfection and receive them into his kingdom. Without knowing it, beloved, these ones fasten themselves to fallen angels; for [in describing the one who does not enter in] I have described the chela of the fallen angels.

Beloved ones, you must understand that the last mark of such as these is noncommunication. They do not communicate with the Guru. They do not attain true communication with my heart, but they go about being "perfect people" instead of recognizing that the matrix of human perfection must be shattered. That clay pot must be broken and there must emerge the free- form spirit who moves with the Holy Spirit wheresoever it listeth, <7> who enters into that Holy Spirit and therefore does manifest the perfection of the will of the Father and the Son, does manifest that wisdom and that Light and so is in congruency [with the All].

And that perfection is alive! It is moving! It is not mechanical. And it bears the mark of the Light and the lilt of those who truly know that joy wherein they can say, "There is no more night here." <8>

Let those chelas who are imitating the fantasy of the fallen ones and the ways of mechanization man cease to do so! Let those who admire the world and its levels of a material perfection remember that [the worldly] have not entered in, lo, in aeons! Yet they may perform well. They may be thought well of. They may appear to have genius. But where genius leaves off, beloved, there is the Mind of Christ and many do not have it.

May you understand that noncommunication is a sign of the suppression of the Word itself and [of] the denial of that Word. Noncommunication of the truth, of the details necessary to move on in life and to make an organization run. Noncommunication with the heart of the Ascended Masters, with loved ones, with friend or stranger or with the Messenger.

This noncommunication, beloved, indicates that there is no tie, there is a cutoff. And in that state of consciousness individuals think that salvation may be won by moving about in a robotic manner; and [then] they become angry when, though they may be robotically perfect, they have failed to please their God. Such was the consciousness of Cain, and his offering was rejected. <9>

I find it necessary to speak this message to all who will come to this place on the Path where they must make the effort in the full fervor of the fire of the heart to transcend that former state of the condition of Homo sapiens and enter in to the true walk, the inner walk with God—moving from the known quantity of the mechanics of a mechanical creation to the unknown realms of the free form and the absolute God-freedom of the electron itself that is the sign of the son of God who is never out of alignment with God's will or geometry and yet is ever new, ever creative, ever approaching the same equation with new input and new energy and moving on with the cycles [of God's perfection, not man's]!

For that one knows that nothing can ever be the same as [it was] yesterday. Yesterday is not good enough, for the earth and the entire galaxy have moved on at tremendous speeds into new dimensions, wavelengths, timetables, options.

Thus, beloved, know the signs! Follow your beloved Melchior <10> and understand that in many instances astrology does tell you the limits to as well as the unlimited potential for freedom of creative action. See to it that you are in attunement [with the ebb and flow of cycles] and that you ride the crest of this wave!

I am Jesus, your Lord. I have come to call you to be my shepherds. I have come to compel you! <11> I have come to warn you that you who have not studied my Calls <12> as they have been released in cycles of dictations may come to this place [of my present Call] where you consider yourself not ready.

Beloved, that is not an acceptable state of consciousness. If you are not ready, you must get ready in the next five minutes! Do you understand?

You must make that five minutes five hundred or five thousand years but you must decide that there is a coiled spring in your Causal Body that can be unleashed as soon as you will declare:

There is no more night here!
For I AM the manifestation of that Holy City where I AM!
And I do not procrastinate my union with my God
Or with that City [Foursquare]
Or with my Christ or with my Divine Mother.
I enter the Spirit of the Resurrection now!
And if in my tardiness and in my dalliance
My entering in may cause me some pain,
Then I welcome it!
For I understand that if I would be ready,
Then the spirit that is anti the living Christ in me
Must be broken!

Blessed ones, the times and the cycles come again and again but they are never the same. We have spoken and spoken again. The reward for our speaking must be with us and in hand. And if you would tie yourself to that moving star of destiny above you, then you must do it quickly. For the stars of destiny move on. They are bright in the heavens in this moment, but there may come a period in the earth when the earth itself should go through the Dark Night of the Spirit when you will not see the star. You will see it only in the memory of God.

Understand this principle and understand that there is indeed an urgency. There is a warning and things are brewing in the earth. And all that I can tell you of prophecy in this hour is that when things happen in the earth, from this day forward they will happen swiftly and suddenly. And all of your preparation will have had to have preceded those events, for there will be no time to prepare or to react but only to be. <13>

Be, then, in the heart of the Buddha, in the stupa of the Buddha. Make your own Causal Body of Light and your aura that haven, that resting place, that place of samadhi and [that place of] the invocation of the Word, its intonation in the sound of the Om. May you contain in your space the house of the Buddha.

What do I say? I say, let the aura be expanded! Let it be increased by the fire of the Kundalini, by the fire of the chakras! Use the fire you have while you have that Light! Expand the dimensions of your auric field so that you do contain the whole house of the Buddha where you are and so that in that canopy and forcefield of Light there may enter lesser souls from various planes who may be shielded in the day of the LORD's appearing. <14>

For in the day of the Lord there is a tremendous Light and cosmic burst of energy, and it is for the annihilation of the [mechanization-man] misusers of the Light. And it is for the clearing of the entire material cosmos for the descent of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of Maitreya, of Gautama, of Sanat Kumara and of myself.

Yes, beloved, I come to you now as you see me in the posture of my Buddhahood <15> -that you might see about me and in me those rings of Light and that presence which you think of when you think of Lord Gautama. I reveal myself to you, then, in the Buddhic presence that you might hold that image of me, for those of the Christian world will not. And therefore there must be some who understand the meaning of my Buddhahood. There must be some who aspire to be Bodhisattvas that they might be linked to the layers of my Causal Body that are my Buddha manifestation.

Therefore know the path of the Bodhisattva. Know the sweetness and the compassion, the peace, the fierceness, the strength, the virya! <16> Know the wisdom. Know the ability to rule the city because you rule yourself. <17> Know the geometry of God and expand [your soul- awareness] into it as a Michelangelo.

Understand that you can know many things beyond what happens to be in your outer [conscious] mind. Yes, you can contact the level of genius. And if you do not have [that level of genius developed in your four lower bodies], then let the violet flame consume all records of anger and hatred and fear [that prevent its development]! For these [vibrations], beloved, do surely consume the fineness [and the refinement] of the Mind of God within you—that piercing quality, that manifestation [of needlelike rays] that is able to probe a cosmos and bring back discovery and new dimensions of thought.

You have been limited by fallen ones and by yourselves. No longer accept the limited condition! You need not. For when you step forth from this body you wear, when the day comes that you are called to enter into the octaves of Light and in the twinkling of an eye you have all knowledge of all things in God, your I AM Presence, you will say to yourself:

"I should have made more fervent fiats to break this sound and mental barrier that existed around me as iron bands! I could have walked the earth in a greater fullness of my Christhood had I only recognized that the laws were there to be applied and the call was there to be given. And therefore I could have been more [the manifestation] of God if I had only transcended the density of the lesser self."

You will wish that you had embodied more of God when there is no longer opportunity, for you shall have been called to the resurrection and the ascension.

Thus, beloved, I bid you this greeting and this message in this hour that you might understand once and for all that heaven is ready to bestow upon you truly bowers of loveliness in an eternal springtime. If you can think of the most beautiful day of spring [you can imagine] and the songs of the birds and the blossoms and the sun in the heavens and all of the joy of Nature, think, then, of the etheric octave.

Think, then, of that opportunity that you do have in this hour. Think, then, of walking and talking with me. Think of what we must do to gather these souls of Light. Think of it, beloved, for they are called and they are touched.

Now I say, please gather them! Please feed my sheep! For it is the law of the cosmos that those in this octave must do the gathering. I can do all things and many things for you and through you but you and only you can feed my sheep. <18>

Let us take stock, then, each one, in this hour. Let there be the rejection of negatives as limitations instead of in the sense of the condemnation of sin. Simply look at that which limits you and see how it is a creation of the mind or other minds and of programming. I, Jesus, say to you, you are with God and in God the Limitless One. May you discover this and become an avatar. <19>

Yes, I said "become." For the process of becoming is the realization in outer manifestation of that which is, was and ever shall be your true [inner] God-manifestation. Therefore I have unveiled many levels of my Christhood and [my] Buddhahood and my Godhood along life's way, and this is the nature of the grand evolutionary spiral of life throughout a cosmos.

Let the mechanization-man concept of religion tell you that Christ simply is and I will say that even the I AM THAT I AM is not simply that which is. For the I AM THAT I AM is ever moving and even as I speak the Word, the I AM THAT I AM has transformed itself a million times and released all manner of Light rays [and spirals of the Mind of God]. There is nothing but progressive revelation and [progressive] realization of God where you are.

Do not impede the process, beloved, and do not let yourself calcify in a certain mold from now until the hour of your victory. <20> For if you do, beloved, you may not have the victory over Death and Hell; for calcification is the signal and the sign that you have sealed yourself at a certain level. All who do this enter the spiral of mortality—of disintegration, disease and death.

Therefore know this, that your challenge as a son of God, which you are, is to move on in the creative spirals of being every single day and to not accept the defeats of yesterday or its limitations as having any power over the sun at dawn, the sun of your Christ Self, which rises every day from dawn to the zenith of the heavens, whereupon you cry out:

O Lord, I AM THAT I AM
The fullness of thy Resurrection and thy Life
within me this day!
And I AM alive forevermore in Thee
And in the Central Sun and in the earth!
Behold, I AM with Lanello:
Everywhere in the consciousness of God!

I bid you a joyous Christ Mass, ever unfolding unto the fullness of the Christ in you, Amen.

This dictation by Jesus Christ was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood Elizabeth Clare Prophet on Christmas Day, December 25, 1990, at the Royal Teton Ranch, Park County, Montana. The Messenger's scriptural reading prior to Jesus' dictation was Revelation 1:1-8; 20; 21. The service and dictation are available on videocassette (1 hr. 15 min., HP91003) and audiocassette (2 hr., B91002-B91003).

1. John 10:16.

2. Ascended Masters' English usage. Frequently, English usage of past centuries comes into play in Ascended Master dictations. Here the Master chooses to use the phrase "things of which you desire to be delivered." Although in current usage, the words from which would normally be used (in the sense that one is "delivered from" something), The Oxford English Dictionary shows the "of which" form as obsolete. In former times, the phrase delivered of was often used to mean "to be set free from, released from, rescued from."

15. Jesus' Buddhahood. At the conclusion of his New Year's Eve Address, December 31, 1989, Gautama Buddha announced: "Blessed ones, may I present to you as I take my leave of you the Lord Buddha Jesus Christ, the Lord Buddha Kuthumi, who stand before you fully arrayed in their Buddhahood and [fully capable of] taking you on the long, long yet very short journey to your own Buddhahood" (p. 26, this volume). The Messenger writes in her Introduction to the 1984 Pearls of Wisdom: "Christic initiation is a prerequisite to Buddhic initiation. And Jesus is our Saviour who, with Kuthumi, has saved our souls so that we may enter the highest path, following their example all the way to the gate of the City of Light. But look again, for these beloved World Teachers have also attained to their Buddhahood and thus they are fully empowered to take us all the way to the throne of Shamballa, East and West" (1984 PoW, Book I, Introduction I, p. 40). See also pp. 253, 355, this volume.

16. The virtues of the Bodhisattva: kindness, fearless compassion and virya.

And "The Age of Maitreya," October 28, 1990, on videocassette, HP90113; 2 audiocassettes, A90038. The word virya (Sanskrit) is variously translated as "vigor," "energy," "strength," "manliness," "zeal," "power," "diligence." In Buddhist teachings, virya is one of the ten paramitas ("perfect virtues") that one must practice and perfect as a prerequisite to the attainment of Bodhisattvahood.

Jesus Christ

Christhood Is the Call
"Behold, I Stand at the Door and Knock"
The Victory Is Ordained for the Now
Our Lord's Christmas Day Address 1994

Hearken unto me, all ye tribes of the earth. Hearken unto me! For I speak in the name of my Father Maitreya, the great and living Guru. I speak in the name of Padma Sambhava, who came after me yet who was before me. I speak in the name of Lord Gautama and of the great Sanat Kumara. And I speak in the name of your Holy Christ Self.

I enter in. But before I enter, behold, I stand at the door and knock. <1> Let the doors to your heart be opened to me. Let the doors to your chakras be opened to me, for I AM your Lord and I come as the Good Physician this day.

I speak to ye who are burdened and I say: In the name Archangel Gabriel, I banish all burdens from your temples! Let out-of-kilter thought processes go into the fire and let the geometry of God descend, descend, descend!

Thus, beloved, I come to clear the records of ages past, those which allow you to retain illness, chronic conditions, out-of-alignment states. I come that the crooked might be made straight. <2>

Therefore let us first establish the straight line of the raising up of the sacred fire within you. This is the tree of life. Yes, this is the tree of life. And you must understand that the organs that make up that tree of life and the branches and the connecting systems of the body have been fashioned in the etheric octave by God, Elohim, that you might come forth wearing perfected bodies, even in the flesh.

How is it, then, how is it, beloved, that you do accept negative conditions and do not cast them out?

Even as I cast out seven devils from Magda, <3> so I come to cast out seven devils from you this day! I say: Ye devils, your day is done! Therefore, flee! Why do you flee when you hear my footstep and my voice? You flee because you know your day is done. Be gone, for my angels await you! They form rings around this place. You shall not escape and go out of these bodies and inhabit other bodies!

I come for the cleansing. And when I come, beloved, be prepared for the descent of sacred fire. And to those who have waited in lamentation for years and incarnations to receive this blessing of wholeness-to you I say, I love you with the perfection of my perfected heart.

Out of the original etheric blueprint of Adam Kadmon <4> you were made—made in the image and likeness of God. <5> There may be other evolutions and other creations, beloved, but it is the sons and daughters of God who have the Mighty I AM Presence, who have the Christ with them always and who have the sacred fire rising—rising from the base of the spine to the crown chakra out of the white fire, Malkhut/Shekhinah. <6>

Yes, beloved, the rising sacred fire is for life and for healing! Therefore I come to bind those entities who have lodged themselves within your cells and within your four lower bodies, almost as codependents with you. This day I say, shake them loose! Cast them out with me now as I say: In the name of my Father Maitreya, I demand the liberation of these souls and bodies and minds and hearts!

To that end receive me into your temple and call upon me and say to me:"O Jesus, O Jesus, come into my temple!"

[Congregation gives the call:]

O Jesus, O Jesus, come into my temple!

"O Holy Christ Self, occupy my temple until my Lord Jesus should find my temple a fitting habitation. So I call to my Christ Self now! I call to my Christ Self now until my Lord Jesus should come!"

Therefore, leap to your feet and rejoice and give your fiats as you affirm that you will no longer allow discarnates to abide anywhere in your house! [Congregation rises and gives fiats.]

Worthy is the Lord! Ho! Ho! Ho!

Worthy is the Lord! Ho! Ho! Ho!

Worthy is the Lord to have your soul presence abiding in your temple. And worthy is the Lord, your Holy Christ Self, to have a fitting habitation that he might come and dwell with your soul in your temple.

Yes, beloved ones, I have sent the Messenger to tell one among you that that one can achieve Christhood in this life. I speak it to all, for the potential is there up until the very last moment of the very last breath. Yet there are some slated to realize it and others must slate themselves.

Go to the blackboard and make it white and put your name on it and say:

I want to be on the list!
I want the tutoring of the Maha Chohan.
I want my tutor to be my Holy Christ Self
incarnate within me.
I do not shirk from this.
I do not shirk from the disciplines I must undergo
to make this happen.
For I will have my wholeness in this life!
For God has ordained it,
And I have been one with God from the Beginning.
Even though I have strayed from the center,
I have never crossed the line of the periphery
of the cosmos and stepped into outer darkness.
Yet I know had I done this, even so my Lord would
have sent his angels to catch me and bring me back!

Now I say, approach the great solar rings. Approach the rings of the seraphic hosts. Approach the rings of Serapis Bey. And know, beloved, that though the light does intensify, you may approach the light. It is a spiritual light. Allow the light, then, to establish threads of contact with every cell and atom of your being until all of you is embraced by threads of light emanating from the Central Sun—threads sent by Alpha and Omega to secure you, to protect you, to reinforce your tie to the heart of God when the tides of the world would sweep you out and then sweep you in again with little control by you.

Yes, Christhood is the call. I come to call you to your Christhood, for you were Christs long ago when you were with me on Atlantis. <7> You had balanced 51 percent of your karma and more, and yet the dark ages ensued in which there was not a flicker of light or hope, but only darkness, beloved.

So know that it is possible to balance much karma and then to turn around and make much more karma. And some of you have been yo-yos, going up and down through the ages. I must say this is tiring, for you and for me, even as it is almost an exercise in futility. Therefore I say, throw your yo-yos away and only go up, save to reach down and sweep a little child into your arms lest that little one be led astray by dark forces.

Oh, I come this day. Yes, I come with rejoicing. And were it not for those of you who know Saint Germain, who have been a part of the I AM movement and other organizations that we have sponsored in the last century, the celebration of Christmas should almost be an exercise in merely seeing the finery of this one and that one as they attend church for a short service and then depart to do their merrymaking.

How, beloved, can there be the celebration of my birth without there being the celebration of your birth?

Well, it cannot be, beloved. And you must consider this day, Christmas 1994, to be a celebration of the birth of your Christhood, even if it be but the igniting of the tiniest little flame. For that flame will begin to flicker and then to shine until your eyes are pools of light and your chakras are emptied and filled again, emptied and filled again! For you are determined that you shall walk the paths of heaven and earth simultaneously. You have determined that you shall walk those parallel paths truly as Christed ones.

This is my calling to you. Let us not tell the "old, old story" without telling the new, new story of Jesus and his love. I AM that love, and that love is what I AM and who I AM. And I come with a profound love in this hour. Therefore be seated in the glorious lilies of your own resurrection fire, beloved.

Let us use the fire of being and not abuse it. When you give your decrees, showers of light as of Niagara Falls descend upon you. Catch them in cups of light! Catch them in the major chakras and in the cells of being! So know that when you are filled with light, that is the time to seal it in your chakras, that is the time to call for your alignment with your Mighty I AM Presence, that is the time to get out of your imbalanced state.

So, beloved, it will take but a turning of the dial of the mind for you to accept your calling in God. Walk the earth as you walked the streets of the cities of Atlantis. In those days, you knew! The temples were there-temples of the violet flame and of healing, mighty temples of the resurrection flame. In those days before the decline that led to the sinking of the continent, you were there, sons of God in positions of leadership. You knew who you were!

Now I say, know who you are today! Know that you are each a vessel that must be filled daily, just as you eat daily—some one meal, some two, some three, some four, some five, some continuously surfeiting the flesh with dense, dead foods. And then, beloved, where can there possibly be room for the light in your cells?

Let us be self-emptied this day. Only we can empty ourselves. Only we can say:

O Lord, I accept that I AM the vessel of your being.
I would be, and I AM, the vessel of Christ.
Show me the way.
Do not allow me to stray.
Take me to thy heart, O God.

Therefore, let the cells be emptied regularly by prayer and fasting. Then eat well and strengthen the body. Strengthen it well, beloved, and hold with me the balance for the earth. For many of my disciples in the orthodox churches who are beautiful souls of Light still do not have the use of the violet flame.

For these I ask you to pray, beloved. For who is it that does keep from them the knowledge and use of the violet flame? Unfortunately, we must fix that responsibility, or irresponsibility, on the leadership among the clergy.

When people have the violet flame, I tell you, they are free-free to move in the Holy Spirit, free to know that by the fire of commitment they can liberate their own souls in the name of their Mighty I AM Presence.

Nay, you shall not raise up your soul by your own bootstraps, beloved, but you shall raise up your soul by the glory of the Lord, by the glory of the angels, by the glory of Almighty God.

Yes, with God all things are possible unto you today-today, beloved! They are no longer possible yesterday, for yesterday is done with. Think how many days and years and centuries have passed. It is no longer possible for you to attain victory in the cups of those dates. The possibility is today and tomorrow and the next day and the next. But the future does not exist until it overtakes you, and then there is only the Eternal Now.

See the glory of the Lord intensifying the white cloud of the Holy Spirit above you in this room. Yes, it is a manger, is it not? Yes, it is the place of your birth. Yes, it is the place where you become the portion of God that God has ordained for you.

Could you even consider taking your leave from this octave without having made use of and multiplied many times over the entire momentum that God has released as the fiery coil that has descended as your life from beginning to end?

I tell you, beloved, some of you have been so, so sorry in past centuries when at the conclusion of your life you arrived at the gate of the Karmic Board and came for review before the Lords
of Karma. For it was then that you learned all too late that you had not made the best use of the dispensations granted you long ago by these spiritual overseers. And though in previous embodiments you had served long and hard to advance the spiritual consciousness of earth's evolutions, more recently you had not made full use of opportunities placed at your disposal.

Beloved ones, I want you to arrive at the gate of the Lords of Karma when this life is through, having spent and spent again to the glory of God and the healing of humanity all that you have been given. As my apostle wrote to the Christians at Corinth, so I echo his words: "I will very gladly spend and be spent for you, though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved." <8> And when you will have taken what you have been given and multiplied it and multiplied it and multiplied it again, you will not find yourselves in the position of the unprofitable servant who buried his talent and received the rebuke therefor. <9>

God intended you to multiply the talents he sent with you when he sent you to planet earth.
And your parents and your teachers are obliged to teach you how to multiply the rings of your Causal Body. And this in turn will permit you to amplify the seven rays in your chakras and in your four lower bodies. Yes, you can pull down from your Causal Body the momentums of the seven rays that you have laid up as your treasure in heaven. <10> The seven rays correspond to the seven chakras, which are the vessels for those rays anchored in your etheric body.

So this is why it is so very important that you follow the science that was practiced by the mother Mary, by the mother Elizabeth. Yes, while John the Baptist and I were each in the womb we had contact with God through the holiness of our mothers. <11> They taught us at an early age and therefore we knew our mission. Our mission was advanced by our mothers, who sat us on their knees and taught us, beloved. So we sat, so we communed together, John and I. And thus there are many holy paintings of John the Baptist and me playing together in the care of our mothers.

You understand, therefore, how critical it is that you give the teachings of God to the children while they are young. I ask you, mothers and fathers, to continue to offer your prayers on behalf of your children as you tuck them in bed. I also ask you to add one more prayer, and it is this: that your children might be taken to the etheric retreats or to the octaves of their own Causal Bodies to internalize and bring forth great wisdom and many talents by the age of seven.

Blessed ones, there are very old souls who are tarrying in the earth who have not taken their ascension, and there is great accumulation of good works in their Causal Bodies. And therefore I say to all parents of Light of the world: Call for that genius! Call for that momentum to descend into the minds of your little ones! How eager they are! How they anticipate their lessons with you!

So, teachers, cherish the hours and the days. For we have sent the souls who are coming to you now. And we have sent them in the trust that you will care for them and raise them up that they might each go forth as an Elijah or an Elisha, that they might each be a prophet of God or a prophet in the field of industry or technology or art or science or education or religion.

Yes, beloved ones, we would send many more. Therefore we call to you to spread the Teachings. Yes, I bring this subject to you again and again. I must bring it, for the time is short for many. Many must learn that they must not abort their children. Many must learn that their unborn children have a soul and an I AM Presence and an opportunity for eternal life. Therefore I call to you!

When I spake in the Galilean hillsides, when I spake round about Judea, I had no public address system. Yet my teachings went forth carried by angels and were deposited in various parts of the world. And I, your Jesus, did also go to those faraway places to preach to the tribes of the earth.

There are many more souls in embodiment today, beloved. Therefore, let these teachings and eventually the dictations be beamed on satellite. The world must have them now! It is a desperate situation! It is desperate, beloved, because the time is short, the karma descends and the people do not know how to use the violet flame to transmute the karma of the hour.

Therefore, you have been given an extraordinary assignment to give your violet flame calls on behalf of five and a half billion souls in embodiment on earth. You who know better are doing better, beloved. And I bow to the Light within you and I thank you for giving the ascended hosts of Light the open door whereby we can step through the veil through your Messenger to deliver the Teachings before it is too late. We may step through the veil through you as well, as you prepare the chalice of your heart to receive us, each one.

Now 1995 is upon us. And understand, beloved, that the remaining years of the century are precious for the turning around of the consciousness of the people. I see the Light in you, I see the Christ in you. And thus I know you can fill those years with the Christ consciousness. And if I were to conduct a seminar with you, I would point out the dark places in your own bodies that can be turned to light.

Thus, self-empty and be filled. Cast out the unwanted misqualified substance. Do not believe for a moment that you cannot be healed in God, but apply all that you know and all that you are to this alchemical process.

So I AM your Jesus. I truly walk with you. You have but to call to me and to maintain a pure heart. I may come and bond with you and you may bond with me by the special quality of your purity of heart.

When the heart is pure, all other levels of being can be purified. Therefore let the heart be pure and true and loving, bearing the cosmic honor flame. Let the heart be the open door whereby the Holy Spirit will come upon you. Let the heart be the open door to the tired, the poor, the huddled masses yearning to breathe free. <12>

So, my beloved, think on these things. Think on these things.

The conclusion of my message is: Only you can do these things. Only you can save your soul or your planet. I have laid it out before you. Others of our bands have laid it out before you during the decades of this century. See to it, beloved: it is your option.

Will you exercise your option and decide this Christmas Day that "this is the life in which I shall return to my state of Christhood"? [Congregation responds: "Yes!"]

I bow to that Light, and I receive you as my sons and daughters, brothers and sisters, disciples. And you are my mothers and you are my fathers and you are my children. So, we have known each other for aeons, beloved.

Oh! oh! oh! the great thrill of the Victory. The Victory is ordained for the Now! Seize it, beloved! It is an hour when all signs point to the Victory.

Be not moved by adverse astrology or burdens from the media. Be not moved by anything but remember, God has ordained this hour for your Victory, day upon day upon day!

So I AM the child in the heart and the avatar of Pisces.

Pax vobiscum.

[26-second standing ovation]

This dictation by Jesus Christ was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White
Brotherhood, Elizabeth Clare Prophet, on Christmas Day, December 25, 1994, at the Royal
Teton Ranch, Park County, Montana. During the service before the dictation, the Messenger
directed the congregation in a meditation on the raising of the sacred fire based on Jesus' words "And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me" (John 12:32). "Amazing Grace," recorded by Jessye Norman, and "Worthy Is the Lamb" from Handel's Messiah, recorded by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and the Philadelphia Orchestra, were played as the meditation music before the dictation.

[N.B. This dictation was edited for print by the Messenger under Jesus' direction.] Throughout these notes PoW is the abbreviation for Pearls of Wisdom. Sections printed in bold italic type highlight fiats, mantras, affirmations, prayers and decrees that you can use in your daily decree sessions. The Messenger recommends that each week when you receive your Pearl of Wisdom, you type or write these out and place them in a special section in your decree book. The Messenger also encourages you to compose your own fiats and affirmations based on the Teachings of the Ascended Masters given in the Pearls of Wisdom.

1. Rev. 3:20.

2. Isa. 40:4; Luke 3:5.

3. The Ascended Lady Master Magda is the twin flame of Jesus Christ. She was embodied as Mary Magdalene, out of whom Jesus cast seven devils. See Mark 16:9; Luke 8:1, 2.

4. Adam Kadmon ("Primordial Man"). In the Kabbalah, Adam Kadmon is the original archetype of man-an ideal conception of man. He is the spiritual man, the heavenly man, who contains in perfect form all the divine attributes. Adam Kadmon is androgynous; in him the masculine and feminine forces are in complete harmony and balance.

5. See Gen. 1:26, 27; 5:1, 2.

6. In the Kabbalah, Malkhut (Kingdom) is the lowest of the ten sefirot on the Tree of Life. The sefirot are the ten aspects of God's being that manifest from Ein Sof ("the Infinite"). Malkhut is also known as Shekhinah (Presence of God), the feminine aspect of God, the mother of the world, and corresponds to the base-of-the-spine chakra.
