"And therefore, because of the human temperament and the ego of mankind, there is great danger that someone somewhere may unleash a hideous holocaust upon the earth, which even we from our octave would be powerless to stop for various reasons connected with the free will of mankind.

"And therefore, the responsibility falls directly upon the student body and those who have understanding of these laws for the calling forth of the energies and the walls of light that shall protect those constructive nations of the earth from those conditions which would mean their destruction.

"I therefore today ask . . . the directors of our constructive activities everywhere to make and create by attunement with our octave a series of decrees which shall cause great walls of cosmic light to be builded around the constructive nations of the earth—around their homes, their governments, their armies, and all of their constructive endeavors, communication, transportation, hospitalization, and all things connected with the welfare of mankind.

"I ask and I urge that these walls of light be constantly fed daily by the student body of this activity. And I ask that these walls of light be called forth continually and maintained until this peril shall have passed from the earth.

"There is a specific reason why it is necessary that the perilous quality of human radiation and human energy now rampant on planet Earth shall be released by you for transmutation so that we may transmute that energy into ascended master light substance and construct for mankind those walls of light which they in themselves could never construct, but which by working and cooperating with heaven can be builded to protect the free world against the forces of Communism and the forces of atheism and the forces of destruction which have run rampant across the face of the earth until the peril is multiplied as never before.

"Truly, when men play with this type of fire, someone is very apt to get burned. And I hope that the mankind of earth shall have learned a lesson, that if this peril be mitigated and pass from the earth, they will then build a God-society where freedom can stand and where the bulwarks of freedom will be so strengthened by the leaders of government and commerce and those individuals who have to do with the building of human consciousness through opinions—such as those who control the press, the radio, the television, and the mass media of communication —that mankind will begin to accept the divine education of the golden age, and that the power of the torch of liberty and freedom can be safely passed to mankind, knowing that they will use it to walk the earth as gods and not to parade before one another their petty fancies and vain desires to glorify the ego and satiate the mere physical desires of their human form.

"If this is done, I am sure that an age of culture and enlightenment shall come to this earth such as has never before been known. And then in that golden age, we of the ascended master octave will be able to step forth and reveal to mankind all the hidden laws of nature and science which shall make of this earth not a place of drudgery but a place where peace shall reign and be felt tangibly, even as I am projecting peace into this room this day."

"But the real dispensation of cosmos to us in decrees is that we are ancient initiates and disciples and lovers of God. Decrees teach us how to pray. They are a worded matrix, they are a formula of light, they are a geometry out of the causal body of the master. But the mere repetition of the decree is not what makes a decree work, but it is the endowment of the Words with the sacred fire. That fire must be in us to some extent, even if microscopically here below.

" . . . And since there is an intermingling of light and darkness and those of light and those of darkness on this planet, we find there are some individuals on this planet for whom decrees will not work because they have chosen that left-handed path.

"And he [Morya] said to me, 'Do you realize, daughter, that by the withdrawal of the dispensation not one of these names, nor their pronunciation, could give those not entitled to the light an erg of energy? And the day could come when all who had responded and would respond to the Light and the path lawfully had made their choices, taken their leave of this planet, where there would be no longer any dispensation. And therefore the combination would no longer be there, the key would not be there, they could recite those Words all day—the decrees would not work because there was no dispensation and no heart of fire qualified to the level of being the chela.'

" . . . God respects you so long as you keep his laws. His angels respect your call so long as you maintain your honor and your integrity. You enjoy a very special place in relation to the heavenly hosts and this dispensation, which is why it is so important when you see and recognize in yourself a deviation from the Law [you correct it].

" . . . And if there comes a time when the individual is not willing to have rooted out of him by the sacred fire the substance of self that is an affront to God that separates the soul from God, then he himself must be expelled. For then you see we place an inordinate weight upon our sponsors.

" . . . And this is precisely what has happened to the worldwide community of those associated with this activity. This you might say has come about through an undue leniency on my part. It is absolutely unwarranted.

" . . . They [decrees] work when you agree not only in principle but in practice and in the depths
of your feelings of your innermost being with the call and the potential and actual answer to that call. When you are in agreement, in harmony and in alignment you can make very swift progress on the path.

" . . . I would like then to seal this Teaching in your hearts by expressing to you the concept of the maximum opportunity that is in our hands today. And the first thing we have to do with that opportunity is regain opportunity lost to El Morya and therefore lost to us."
