Ascended Master Teaching for Sunday

Vol. 2 No. 9 - El Morya - March 6, 1959

Gracious readers and heart-friends of old! You know it to be true that everything comes from the invisible to the visible. Did not you, yourself, so come into this physical world? Everything begins with one—God-good—who is the source of all, and then one divine idea which stems from his consciousness. Then, since it is the very nature of life (God) to expand itself, that idea (by the magnetic power of divine love) begins to draw to itself more and more of that complementary substance–which may be already manifest as persons, places, conditions and things–as, in its own intelligence (being born of divine mind), it knows is essential to the sustaining and expanding of its own existence and fulfillment of its divine plan (reason for being).
So, from one truth we glean another: “Great oaks from little acorns grow.” Anything that is good cannot remain small and insignificant for too long in its service to life, for, as just stated above, the divine intelligence within any good idea will lovingly endeavor to move it forward to the fulfillment of its divine plan—which is perfection—all ways! Some of you who have been Bible students will remember the incident about those who were much disturbed by the (for that time) seemingly “radical” teachings of the beloved Jesus. Finally, one among them, wiser than the rest, bid them be at peace for, as he said: “If this man be of God—he will prosper....”. He felt (and rightly so) that the whole matter would resolve itself in real simplicity with a little patience and so it did!
Now, is this not a self-evident Truth that all that is of God prospers? How could it be otherwise—since the cosmic fiat and “distress call” of humanity to the Great White Brotherhood is “The light of God never fails”? Then, if it “never fails”—it must prosper! One of the greatest reasons for the reality of this truth lies in the one-pointedness and singleness of vision of our creator and source of all—“I am of too pure eyes to behold iniquity (inequity; unbalance; light and shadow)!”
Now, everything that exists must have a reason for being! Therefore, let us consider the reason for our “Pearls of Wisdom.” Obviously, one of their reasons for being is to provide a channel for the rhythmic and close frequency of release (once every seven days) for ascended master instruction and intensified radiation of their light into the consciousness of our interested chelas in the world of form, simplified in expression enough so that even a child can understand it! I assure you, beloved of my heart, that we could release—even into worded expression—truth to you in such high-sounding phrases as few of mankind could understand, but what good would that do you? How practical would that be? There has been much “veiled” instruction on truth given to mankind in the past, but how many could understand and use its power for the freeing of their own worlds and those of others?
Simplicity of presentation and clarity of understanding is the order of the day—so far as our present instruction is concerned and, if it has been noted that we repeat and repeat—do you realize that the average outer consciousness of unascended mankind has to hear a thing at least four times(!) before it registers clearly therein? Of course this is not always true of our chelas who have been using the violet flame for some years, because that flame does clear the mental body and brain structure of much shadowed effluvia which ordinarily would obstruct the clear reception of that which the individual hearers.
Then, too, inasmuch as one never really knows a thing until it has become a part of his own world through experience, no one really knows that which he has not proven for himself. Honestly, now—beloved ones—have you really proven all the truths we have given you these many years? Then why not let us use that which we have, and, believe me, when that has been used, more wisdom will come forth and more of your desired manifestations will appear for, as has been said: “When the chela is ready—the master appears”! Nothing and no one can keep such a manifestation from that chela!
We know that you desire practical manifestations of this truth which you have accepted and so these “Pearls of Wisdom” are meant not just to be “enjoyable” to you (although we sincerely hope they are that!) but they are intended to be actual “lessons in truth” which come to you regularly (like a “correspondence course,” if you will), moving you ever forward into actual practical mastery of the substance and energy of your own worlds, which expanding light from you raises and helps all you contact.
Our “Pearls of Wisdom” are a living activity which, like the great oak itself, has come forth from a very small “acorn,” but which must be able to expand and thus sustain for themselves a permanent place. The “Tree of Life” is often spoken of in symbol, and, as you know, the tree expands itself from within its own seed, wherein is the perfect picture of its potential full expression. As it draws to itself that which is required to fulfill its destiny, in time it becomes not only a thing of beauty but a place of comfort for the birds who nest therein, and its “shade” is a comforting gift to the one who seeks shelter from the blazing noonday sun.
So, beloved ones, thinking of our “Pearls” as a “Tree of Understanding” and considering each of our gracious readers as a living branch thereof, we are hoping that you will bring forth other branches (expand the number of present “Pearl” readers)—thus causing to appear upon our “tree” lovely “leaves and fruits”—tangible proof that the branches are accepting and using the life of that tree! Will you help us to bring into manifestation here not only faith in our words, but works well done, through the daily practicing of the laws of life which we have proven, for by the daily use of these same laws have we attained! May we count on you—each one—to help us make of our present “acorn”(!!) a mighty oak which shall endure for centuries yet to come? I know we can—and we do! This is God’s will for “The Pearls of Wisdom.”

 The “Tender of the Tree of God’s Will”—“I AM”—

Your Morya


NOTE: Gracious reader! If the “Tree of Life” kept its life within itself and did not give it forth in expansion of its service to others, how long could it possibly exist? Just so, in the utilizing of every opportunity to give of yourself and substance to others to make life more beautiful and comfortable, do you expand your own light and hasten your eternal freedom from every human limitation! Vondir!

Ascended Master Teaching for Friday

Vol. 2 No. 8 - Kuthumi - February 27, 1959


Our Gracious and Beloved Kuthumi speaks:
From time immemorial have the harrassed (and often bewildered!) consciousnesses of unascended mankind thought of, longed and prayed for a “utopia” upon this dear earth—an era of all-pervading Christ peace as the master Presence, authority and activity of all life evolving here! Such an outpicturing of God-perfection was manifest on earth in the beginning of her creation and, during the first two golden ages, was sustained and expanded as you have been told—so perfectly that all of those embodied here at that time (known as the “The Holy Innocents”) completed their earthly journey and gained the victory of their ascension.
Now, a great deal of that which men call “time” has elapsed since such perfection was extant here but, today has the great Cosmic Wheel turned to the place where such perfection must come to earth again, this planet recently having entered “The Seventh Age” (the new and permanent golden age). This “Age of Peace” is now coming in, regardless of all chaotic appearances and conflicts manifesting today, individually and collectively, whose effects bring such suffering to life. The transcendent blessings of this Seventh Age are being made possible for the earth and all her evolutions today mainly by the gift of the violet transmuting flame with its infinite power of merciful forgiveness and healing through transmutation. The constant use of that glorious, beneficent friend of unascended life here can bring only the most exquisite and soul-satisfying peace.
You see, the desire for peace is naturally inherent within all life, for peace is one of the God-virtues and, while it seems to be such a gentle manifestation of Divine Love—yet is it one of the most powerful! When true peace is felt by any individual or group, that peace cannot be disturbed, for such true peace is that which beloved Jesus embodied and spoke of as “that which surpasses understanding of the (human) mind...”
The Cosmic Fiat has been sent forth from those who govern the spiritual destinies of this planet and from the sun itself: “The earth must emit more light!” and peace is one of the manifestations of light. To that end, therefore, the earth and all her evolutions are passing through a period of tremendous purification and the present conflicts which seem to abound everywhere between individuals as well as among nations are but the stirring up of old destructive etheric records of past enmities and shadowed substance, qualified with misunderstandings and violence from the past. These are brought forth for balancing and redemption and those among mankind who are so fortunate as to know how to transmute these into light again by the use of the violet transmuting flame now have opportunity to do so.
With no desire whatsoever on my part to impose upon our gracious readers a feeling over-responsibility, let me say that once one knows of the law of the “I AM” and its tremendous gifts which can be called forth to bless life, the responsibility for such chelas to use them constantly is very great! Said the beloved Jesus: “If ye know these things—happy are ye if ye do them!” Remember?
Now, this does not mean that anyone should become fanatical in any way in their use of the law—just sitting down somewhere all day long, endeavoring to apply it. No! All the while one is taking care of the things of this world which require his attention, the alert chela will be ever mindful of opportunities to use this violet flame (which opportunities present themselves every hour of the day); living, moving and having his being with that flame himself, as well as calling it into action in, through and around persons, places, conditions and things everywhere he is located or chooses to move.
Then, when laying the physical body down for rest at night, even then the earnest chela will call to his Beloved “I AM” Presence and to beloved Archangel Michael, to clothe and seal his “finer” form within an armor of pure white Christ Light, with the Crystal Helmet upon his head, a Crystal Shield in the left hand and Sword of blue flame in the right hand, asking Lord Michael to take him out in his finer body to those persons, places, conditions and things he can free in the so-called “invisible” astral plane which surrounds the earth. Since all comes into manifestation from the unseen to the seen, the blessed chelas who do this night after night (such service often unknown to anyone but themselves and to us) are giving a tremendous re-ease to life, preventing much distress from manifesting here—because the cause and core thereof was cut away by their Swords of blue flame and transmuted by the violet fire before it could outpicture here. Do you see?
True wisdom always manifest perfect balance! You know that Golden Flame of Wisdom occupies the center position in the picturization of the three plumes of love, wisdom and power which comprise the immortal three-fold flame of eternal truth. It acts as does the fulcrum of a scale—holding in perfect balance on either side of its blazing presence—the blue plume of power (on the left) and the pink plume of Divine Love (on the right). This is because the energy of life (represented by the blue plume of power) is received thereby, as it flows into the heart from the Presence. Then, passing through the golden plume of wisdom (where it is given its divine direction for use) it is dispensed through the pink plume of Divine Love.
Gracious reader! Do you ever find yourself in a quandary as to just what would be the perfect thing to do in many circumstances which arise in daily living? You who have accepted your own Beloved “I AM” Presence as the reality and source of your being are fortunate indeed, for you have but to turn to its gentle presence focused right within your beating heart and make your desires known there. Your answers must come—just as surely as you have a beating heart this moment. If you will be patient, letting your Holy Christ Self choose the perfect time of manifestation for you (in its wisdom), your answers will come—either through hearing, through reading the written word or, perhaps, through the voice of another—one who may know nothing of your need or the fact that he is being used as a channel to bless you.
The Scriptures tell us that wisdom is “gentle, peaceable and easily entreated.” Certainly there is no struggle in or to God—the Source of all wisdom. Beloved Jesus has said again and again: “Learn of me for my yoke is easy....”; “Ask and ye shall receive....”; then also have we been told by the Psalmist: “Be still (at peace) and know (the) ‘I AM’—God”.
As former Chohan (Lord) of Wisdom’s Ray (second) I can tell you that there is no strain or struggle to the gaining of knowledge or wisdom (which is the right use [“righteousness”] of knowledge). Do you realize that in one flash of the Golden Flame of Illumination from the heart, head and hand of your own “I AM” Presence DIRECTLY? Prove it! Try this out! You may do me the honor of believing my words but, if you do not prove the truths we give you to be practical by your own use thereof, investing in them your own personal energies so that they become a part of your own experience—where is the permanent benefit to you?
Beloved ones! True wisdom brings peace! True wisdom is the divine birthright of every lifestream and is yours for the asking! Would it not be a gracious gesture for you—each morning (even before arising)—after having acknowledged to your presence with gratitude the gift of its life for another day—to ask it to show you clearly just what—in its wisdom—is the perfect thing for you to do with that day? After all—is it not its own life you are using?
Remember! We stand always ready and willing to help you hear the “still, small voice” of your own beloved God-Presence. To develop any latent power, one must begin and then keep on trying until mastery is gained! I remain—

In Sincerity and Love Divine—

Your Cosmic Teacher

Ascended Master Teaching for Saturday


Vol. 2 No. 7 - Gautama - February 20, 1959

 The gift of memory is a blessed gift indeed from the all-knowing mind and heart of our loving Creator; yet how much gratitude arises from unascended mankind to the Source of all Life for that gift? Of course, we realize that, from the standpoint of mankind’s experiences in the world of form, much of that which receives his almost constant attention would better be completely forgotten. Therefore, it is quite understandable to our illumined and therefore merciful consciousness that mankind should desire to escape from remembering the unhappiness caused by the shadows of human creation.

The blessed God-gift of sleep is such a boon to the weary flesh, as well as to the mental and feeling worlds of any unascended lifestream for, if the consciousness is even temporarily freed from that which holds it bound to the earth and its unfortunate astral plane (the accumulation of human discord which surrounds it), the individual—going out in the etheric body while the physical form sleeps—is enabled to contact the higher realms of light above the earth. Thus, for at least a short period during each twenty-four hours does the lifestream experience some respite from the pressures and radiations of shadowed substance and energy. Such release and relief is particularly available to our conscious chelas on “the Path” who know of the ascended and angelic hosts and their ability (as well as loving willingness) to escort the soul—while the physical body rests—to those realms of light’s perfection where they may renew their consciousness of truth—their unity with God!

Within your own blessed etheric bodies (memory worlds) abides that God-gift of eternal divine memory—a most previous gem of light—much more valuable and precious than any jewel in the outer world. Therein is eternally registered the reality of you—that divinely majestic and exquisitely beautiful I AM Presence with which you had conscious unity in the beginning of your individualization—in all its God-freedom. This is the “immaculate concept” of you—that which is held for you by your own Holy Christ Self (the Silent Watcher of your individualized lifestream). It sustains that pattern of perfection as a mighty magnet which, when allowed so to do, will draw every electron of your lifestream back into God-perfection again—in the victory of your ascension.

Now, beloved ones, will you please call often to your own beloved I AM Presence and to me to help you restore to your outer mind this eternal divine memory? Such a revelation of the beauty and full perfection of the real you would do so much to encourage you to use that violet transmuting flame constantly (with intensified specific intervals at least three times each day). Certainly this would help to fill your present days and those ahead with the joy and light of that Presence! Such perfection of your lifestream has manifested—therefore it can and shall manifest again! As you continue earnestly in your calling for it to appear—you must be answered! You must receive that for which you call—thus bringing you closer and closer, even in outer expression, to your light-pattern of perfection—in the Eternal Now.

Let me also suggest here that you remember that all-important gift which you likewise have received from our Father of all Good—the gift of a “divine forgettery” (shall we call it?)—the “Sea of Forgetfulness” into which everything human should be daily cast. This is the graciously-given, limitless use of the violet transmuting flame which, simply by raising the vibratory action of everything It contacts, just silently, mercifully and gently (yet powerfully) lifts that substance into a vibration which manifests as Light—that Light from which and from whence it came. Is not God’s way of mercy and forgiveness an easy way to set one’s self free?

Then, after having so used this violet fire for this service, ask your Holy Christ Self to help you close the door against ever remembering such unhappiness again, by removing the etheric records thereof from your etheric body (memory world). Ask that these be replaced by some good you desire made manifest—for instance, a replica of your own “immaculate concept.” Will you try this? I shall be so happy to help you if you will.

Consciously accept my gift of love to you today—my assistance to your bringing forth again into outer physical action, that blessed God-power of your lifestream—your eternal divine memory. Will each of you, gracious readers, do me the honor of reading this “Pearl” at least twice daily during this coming week? Thank you!

Blessed be the name of that God-memory of Light’s immortal perfection!


“I AM”—Gautama


(“The Lord of the World”)




Note: Gracious reader! Once again it is our joy and opportunity to acknowledge with sincere gratitude your kind generosity which is helping us to sustain and expand this service of the Ascended Ones to you and all life. All that you have given shall return into your hands and use, amplified without limit, as that which makes all the rest of your journey here easy, plain, successful and perfect at all times! This we decree in the name and by the power of our own beloved I AM Presence and yours! Vondir!—The Staff.

Ascended Master Teaching for Thursday


Vol. 2 No. 6 - Jesus Christ - February 13, 1959

 Blessed hearts -My “modern-day disciples”! “(The) ‘I AM’ (is) the Open door (to all good) Which no man can shut!” Just as two thousand years ago the first speaking forth and practical use of My “I AM” statements were full of (to the human -MIRACULOUS) power, which worked even practical wonders in and through My sincere disciples, so today again will my understanding and use of the Creative Word “I AM” free your worlds from everything of limitation–especially from the snares and pit-falls of a “closed” consciousness.
While it is true (and advisable too) that the chela on the “The Path” must be very discriminating as to what he allows to enter his mind and world (for it surely will produce there after its kind!), yet, at the same time, the alert chela will keep his mind open always to new aspects of Truth, by which his vision and experience world are not only enlarged but “raised” as well.
For instance, you know that no one can put anything into a closed fist. The individual of “closed” mind and consciousness (admitting perhaps just one facet of Truth therein) may be likened unto a small child who is desperately clutching a handful of pennies. He is trying not to lose a single one—refusing from his parent a handful of dollars which might be offered him—saying that his hands are already so full that he can scarcely hold all his possessions! Surely this analogy need no explanation!
Mankind today find themselves in the midst of numerous and very unusual spiritual opportunities because of the bringing forth to the outer consciousness of men in the experience life here the Sacred Truths formerly held in the retreats of the Great White Brotherhood. The knowledge and practical use of the “I AM” as the creative Word of Divinity, the tube of light and violet transmuting flame is now permitted to go forth openly to the people.
These have been offered to the masses of the people over a period of years now and our “Pearls of Wisdom” are one facet of such teachings to the people. Those who will carefully and prayerfully read and use such teachings are fortunate indeed. These earnest chelas will even “read between the lines,” shall we say, thus “tuning into” the vibrations and consciousness of the particular master who may be releasing his (or her) God-wisdom to such an one. Then, he, in the quiet of his own heart and room, can have anchored into his being and world the momentums of God-perfection through the power of radiation.
Now, of course, some unascended consciousnesses are farther advanced than others as to their understanding of our reality. Therefore, perhaps but a few are aware that, as any individual reads the words of an ascended being (which are the one’s very Life!) that Being is instantly aware of such attention upon him and sends luminous presence of himself to stand in the aura of that chela, radiating to him as much as possible of the true meaning and God-intent of his words. Sometimes, according to the need and spiritual advancement of the chela concerned, the master himself stands in the aura of the chela.
At this time, certain of mankind may not find it easy to accept and believe this, turning away from our words in unbelief as they say within themselves (even though they may not voice it): “How can the master Jesus speak to me today–when he left this world in the ascension centuries ago?” However, even though such lifestreams may not accept my teachings now (just as they did not accept them when I gave them through a physical body two thousand years ago!) yet, because of the nature of the “times,” when the cosmic law has decreed that “Now is the day when the knowledge of the Lord (Law of God—“I AM”) shall cover the earth....” these same lifestreams will one day soon eagerly and with gratitude scan and endeavor to understand and apply every word of that which is being offered today.
Therefore, as you read my words, do you not see the glorious opportunity which is yours now—the same as of “old” —when, by giving my words your attention, I can and do charge into you consciousness my own feeling and power of the truth of the “I AM.” After all, did I not state so long ago—“It is the Father (the ever-present one—knowing neither time not space) that doeth the work?” Is it not strange that mankind, who so earnestly are endeavoring to conquer outer space and visit other stars—just by the simple use of their God-given free-will are able to limit the Ascended Host of Light in their blessing to mankind—when we desire only to flood forth our feelings of Victorious accomplishment to those who need it so much? Yet, such is the case!
Beloved ones—you whose consciousness is illumined to the place where you can and do accept us and our blessings—keep the door of your consciousness ever open to the recognizing and receiving of the power of divine love—expressing it yourselves in every action of daily living. It is the power that sets you free from every oppression, giving you that joyous and masterful feeling of overcoming everything human, replacing it by all that is divine.
Remember! The practical use of Divine Love can do the “humanly impossible.” Some time ago one of my devotees wrote a book called “Love Can Open Prison Doors” and the daily practical use of Divine Love by him to that end did work that “miracle.”
Your attention is your life—which “Life” is the life of your very own God-Self, your Beloved “I AM” Presence flowing through you—that which gives you consciousness! Your attention turned to your own Beloved “I AM” Presence, as well as to the Ascended and Angelic Hosts, is the open door to your heart and world, through which we may pour our good of every description. Again—I say: “(The) ‘I AM’ (is) the open door (to all Good) which no man can shut!”

Lovingly I enfold you in My Victory of Light!

(The Ascended Master) JESUS


(This instruction comes to you through the loving courtesy of the Ascended Masters’ Darjeeling (India) Council of God’s Will, of which all the Ascended Host are members.)
NOTE: Gracious reader! If you had a friend in physical embodiment who possessed great wealth and—mind you—was willing to share it all with you—how long would it take you to accept that gift? Well, two thousand years ago, our Beloved Jesus said: “....I have called you friends....” and “all that the Father hath given unto me give I unto you....(St. John 15:15-16). Do you believe that? If you do—you will act upon it and prove it true—right now—today! Will you try? Let Beloved Jesus prove his words true—personally for you!

Ascended Master Teaching for Wednesday

Vol. 2 No. 5 - Djwal Kul - February 6, 1959
  
In many an Oriental rice paddy there stand blessed ones with feet bared and immersed in the chilly waters, as they endeavor to render their service which enables at least some of the teeming millions of lifestreams there to have their daily (and so much needed!) bowl of rice. These who do so serve enjoy to the full the warmth and comfort of the sun upon their bodies, all the while enduring the discomfort of the sun upon their bodies, all the while enduring the discomfort of the chilly waters which numb their lower limbs as they work.
Now, as the light and warmth of the sun comfort the worker in the rice fields, so do many basic and elemental Laws of Life which have been revealed and accepted from all the great religions and philosophies of the world enable the average mind and consciousness to find certain peace and contentment—just in the considering of the simple aspects of Deity—i.e., the concept of heaven, God and his Son, the Saints and the Angels.
However, as the lifestream begins to reach out for a more complete understanding of real truth (which begins to reveal to the seeker the expanding knowledge of Divine Law, as well as revealing the limitlessness of the realms of heaven and those who abide there), some of that “first born” happiness and spiritual elation which came with the first finding of truth may seem to take flight. This widening panorama—the increasing knowledge of truth; the necessity of bringing one’s world into line with the Divine Law of balance and the limitless expanse of the realms above the human—all of this seems at times to “overwhelm” the new student on “The Path.” After such a stretching of his spiritual vision, he is inclined to long for the simple “bowl of rice”– the primary ideas of just God, heaven and the angels which may have comprised his original consciousness of Deity in this embodiment.
Now, beloved and courageous chelas of the Ascended Masters of Wisdom! Just know that such an experience in consciousness often comes about before full mastery is attained by the chela. It indicates (to some degree at least) that the student, having severed many earthly ties, has not yet found heaven’s anchorage! Therefore, such an one may become entangled in the “mooring lines” of his new-found freedom in truth and, perhaps, some confusions in thought and feeling seem to manifest.
Of course, in all true Ascended Master Instruction (especially in that concerning the “I AM” Presence which has been so freely and abundantly released to all who will accept it by your beloved Saint Germain for about a quarter of a century now), there is always a complete and God-satisfactory remedy available for every human ill and unhappiness. The remedy here lies in a more constant and complete attunement with the light of the Christ within one’s own heart for, when so many of the outer friendships of the human seem to “fall away,” the new-found friendship of the outer self with that Inner “Divine One” must be cultivated and nourished by the frequent, rhythmic attention of the outer self thereto.
Perhaps—before his ascension—the full meaning of all the various and confusing doctrines of this world may never be made completely clear to the student, and, while it may take quite a bit of persistent “calling” on the part of the chela to find the answer to every question—yet one thing is very sure—there can no unhappiness or confusions abide where dwell the God-qualities which are naturally radiated by the Christ. Among these, Patience, Forgiveness and Forgetfulness of every human mistake are the very heart and being of Divine Love (God himself!). These God-qualities, of course, are naturally inherent within the Christ nature of every man and radiate from the consciousness of every lifestream who will allow them so to do—whether that individual be in a high place; whether he be the average “man on the street” or whether he be a simple “coolie” or peasant.
The cultivating by you of more and more Patience (not only with one’s self but with others of evolving life), as well as endeavoring constantly to have an understanding heart and be a comfort to all life, will make you both gracious and graceful in your expressions of daily living. Then will you be most willing consciously to call for the violet fire to transmute the causes and cores of all mistakes of yourself and others. This merciful violet fire sets all free from the pressures of energy qualified with criticism, condemnation and judgment, which energies, otherwise, may continue to build around them until, many times, that pressure alone may compel a repetition of the same mistakes. After all, none unascended are yet perfected, and true introspection of self— together with the use of the violet fire—will remove the habit of “judging according to appearances” from the chela’s world. Thus does the seeker gradually become more and more master of life through the anchorage of his greater and greater attunement with his own Holy Christ Self and the Ascended Host.
Before closing this message to you today, let me refer briefly to a very beautiful aspect of the returning to earth of the Ascended Ones, in answer to the calls of those who accept their reality and assistance. These Great Ones always—without fail—express their sincere and intense gratitude to the Source of their life which gave them their Ascension. Such releases of Divine Gratitude from their blessed selves remains in earth’s atmosphere as great foci of their perfected consciousness–magnificent thought and feeling forms of blazing light. Then, as is the nature of the Ascended Ones’ life and light, these continue to expand and expand their perfection to all. Now, gracious reader, will you too earnestly endeavor to produce, release and expand the God-momentums of your own lifestreams—so that everywhere you move you leave a permanent blessing of your light here—for all to enjoy!

NOTE: Gracious readers: So very often has our beloved Morya explained so patiently that it is the will of God for you (and all his children) to have all good—including the abundant supply of money. So—why not accept and enjoy this bounty, since it is your own? Ask yourself: “What is the size of the ‘cup’ of consciousness which I daily present to the fountain of wealth for filling? Is it a thimble or a barrel?” You may have either, you know—it is all up to you! Think about this—it is very important to your financial freedom! What do you consider as being “a lot of money”? To some it will be one amount—to others something more than that would be desirable. Daily ask your blessed Holy Christ Self to expand your consciousness to accept and receive all you can possibly use to increase life’s beauty and comfort! Our love to you—all ways! —The Staff

Ascended Master Teaching for Monday

Vol. 2 No. 4 - Maha Chohan - January 30, 1959
  
The constant repetition of past mistakes comes about because of old habits of thought, feeling, spoken word and deed (the patterns of which are sometimes quite deeply enmeshed in your etheric body (memory world), and create discord and unhappiness for you today. These are but the outpicturing again in the world of form of old destructive etheric records from the past—momentums of imperfection which have been.
After having started the journey back “home” by entering “the path of light,” even the most zealous of our chelas often finds himself (or herself) experiencing a seemingly more than ordinary amount of unpleasant experiences in their daily life. These are but the reactions of those destructive etheric records for, when spiritual ambitions mount and the soul aspires to become more God-like, the added energies of light so drawn into the chela’s world (in answer to his calls) must pass through his etheric body, thus energizing these destructive etheric records there. Then these records begin to manifest to the chela as unhappy experiences—coming to his attention in this way so that he will make the necessary application to the sacred fire to purify and balance them. So does he have the merciful opportunity to “make things right.”
You see, the human qualities of irritation, resentment, fear and a host of others which have been “buried” within the etheric body—in so coming to the surface for redemption may become the bane of the chela’s existence, threatening to destroy his harmony and the manifesting of the God-nobility of his true nature which he is presently endeavoring so earnestly to develop, with the assistance of his own Holy Christ Self anchored within his beating heart. Unless these restless energies are quickly brought under the God-control of the Holy Christ Self and then purified by the violet transmuting flame, they must express themselves—for this is a natural aspect of the cosmic law of divine justice. However, at all times our chelas have full and immediate access to their own beloved “I AM” Presence and to us of the ascended host who, at their call so to do, are so willing to help the chelas “harness” and control such energies.
I am calling this to your attention this week, right now—in the early part of this year, I am decreeing for each of you who will consciously daily accept it into your worlds and outer experience a glorious Christ-expansion of the light from within your own heart—which light (just as a little water dropped upon a hot stove instantly will turn into steam) can and will transform shadowed energies into divine love and purity—bringing my feelings of comfort into your own world as well as into the worlds of all you contact. Press onward and forward to your cosmic victory—which victory of light is already spreading its luminous presence everywhere. Please accept my blessing to you today—my feeling of the comfort flame. Let it flood now into the cause and core of every discordant appearance in your world. Hold your personal peace and uninterrupted harmony and see what my flame will do for you—in a very short time!

Blessings and Love—

Maha Chohan

Ascended Master Teaching for Friday

Vol. 2 No. 3 - El Morya - January 23, 1959


Constant and rhythmic is the beat of your blessed hearts—a sustaining service to your daily existence here, I am sure! The outer (personality) consciousness of mankind—so limited in scope—pays little or no attention, most of the time, to this beneficent service of his own heart, which really is the foundation of his very being here. Many individuals seem not even to be interested in listening to those who would reveal such truth to them—preferring rather to remain unwilling to admit more light (knowledge) into the shadowed recesses of their consciousness.
So—rhythmic and constant as is your own heartbeat have the ascended masters stood—all through the ages—releasing to the outer consciousness of humanity (wherever and whenever possible) gigantic light rays qualified by their love and wisdom. These they have used, shall we say, almost as “crow-bars” of light, to pry open the darkened recesses of human consciousness, so that it eventually would admit the purifying love and light of God’s will.
Now, you all know that, particularly in the heavily populated areas of the world, there are so-called “slums,” where the people live in much privation and suffering. You know, too, that those lifestreams who are determined enough to remedy such conditions often give their entire lives to that end. Such lifestreams are honored and revered for their service by the constructively-minded among mankind—this “honoring” often taking place during the span of their “natural” lifetime here. Should not, therefore, those who seek to serve the spiritual needs of mankind from a pure heart and motive (ascended as well as unascended) be most highly esteemed by all life and their assistance accepted and graciously used? In and by such service these bring to man the greatest freeing, purifying power and divine order of divine love which exists anywhere in the universe!
Of course we know very well that there are much more infinite and transcendent powers of the Godhead presently being released and used in greater and more scientific activities than the particular present services of the Great White Brotherhood to earth’s evolutions. However, may I suggest to unascended mankind that, at this particular time of a Planet’s need for purification and the healing of manifold distresses, Cosmic matters are a bit outside the province and concern of Earth’s people! Today mankind are but touching the fringe of magnificent scientific discoveries and interesting manifestations thereof which, to unascended mankind, seem phenomenal. However—let me ask you! Does one begin the study of geometry before having mastered simple fractions?
Believe me when I say that it is most important (particularly for you who have offered to represent us in the world of form as arms of our presence to alleviate as well as completely remove the causes of humanity’s distresses) to concern yourselves with the solving of your personal “problems” and those of your fellowman—which limit and distress you and prevent your having the peace and abundant supply of all good, which is God’s will for you! Under these circumstances, do you not think it wise to leave the more weighty cosmic “problems” of the universe to those of us who are wholly free from every human limitation, and, therefore, have become fitted wisely to direct the destiny of the universe?
Gracious readers! May I very gently (and sweetly, too!) ask you to turn your attention to and direct all the energies you can in calls to your own beloved “I AM” Presence and to us for the use of the most powerful action of the violet transmuting flame to remove the causes and cores of the “human problems” of earth’s evolutions now—when the opportunity for such service is so great. We of the ascended host are so vitally interested in freeing all life here from every limitation and distress and we know that you, as our loyal chelas, are likewise vitally interested in the same “project.” Unascended mankind stand today upon the threshold of such tremendous opportunity to experience God-freedom as has not been known on earth since time immemorial. To assist them to grasp and use such opportunity, we welcome your loving cooperation in these days. Our ascended-master light shines through many constructive activities which are sincere in their motives and endeavors to illumine and raise mankind. That same light blazes very brightly indeed now through our new “Lighthouse of Freedom!”

NOTE: Gracious reader—another “Lighthouse Beam” for you!
“While my gaze is riveted-
’I AM’—on Thee ‘on high’—
Still let my feet be planted firm
On earth—as days go by!
So let me live in balance true—
Serving both earth and heaven—
That I let flow thy gifts to me—
Giving—e’en as I’m given!”

Ascended Master Teaching for Tuesday

Vol. 2 No. 2 - Great Divine Director - January 16, 1959

Deep in the heart of the African jungle, it is quite possible that a very beautiful diamond would be little valued by the natives there. Of course, since attraction to light is inherent within the life of all men, such lifestreams might admire its flashing brilliance, but to them it would be of small practical value n their everyday living. However, in the more “civilized” marts of the world, such a gem would be of tremendous interest, admiration and value, as well as being much sought after.
Now, so much more valuable than a mere diamond (which, after all, is but the condensation of certain elements of this world that there is really no good comparison) is the divine destiny of every man—that glorious ascension in the light! You see, in the case of the native in the jungle, he values a precious gem so little because of his ignorance concerning its worth. Just so, today, the masses of mankind live in the jungle of their own darkened consciousnesses—most of which are almost completely filled with their own discordant thought and feeling forms—these constantly being created by them through the qualified release of their own life which beats their hearts as it flows unceasingly from that glorious “I AM” Presence—the source of their very being. Therefore, to the average individual in embodiment here, encompassed about as he is by the solving of the so-called “problems” of daily living, the transcendent idea of his ultimate God-freedom from every “problem”—the ascension in the light—is of little more immediate value to him than(than twice in original) the diamond to the native in the jungle—simply because he does not yet accept its worth. Do you see?
Mankind en masse on this planet today know not from whence they came, why they are here or where they are going. Can you even imagine then, beloved chelas, how fortunate you are to have been told of the goal of the ascension, having been given our help to enable you to accept its possibility—keeping that possibility ever before you—as well as showing you the ways and means by which you may attain it? Then, too, at any moment you may have the loving, ready and willing assistance of those who have already attained, to help you also to achieve your personal victory!
I assure you that the ascension in the light is a goal so magnificent that such tremendously illumined lifestreams as the beloved Gautama, beloved Jesus—and, even before their time—the great Zarathustra and Enoch of old—could and did give all they were and had (heart, soul, mind and strength) to the pursuit and attainment of this goal, until they had made it their own. The ways and means they used to accomplish such a victory certainly are most worthy of the attention, close study and even emulation by the wisest men in embodiment on earth today!
When mankind suffer a damaging wound or desire counsel concerning the state of their physical health, do they not inquire of their friends as to the name of a reputable physician? Then, because of their confidence in such an one, they accept his diagnosis of the situation and suggestions as to how it can be remedied. Then, would it not be the part of wisdom and discretion too for every lifestream in embodiment here today (all of whom need such assistance—spiritual and otherwise) to be open-minded enough at least to consider the aspects of truth which we have presented to the world—so clearly explained and even reasonably logical to the outer mind? Mankind should be willing to consider and then accept these gifts—considering them from the heart (which, incidentally, will reveal truth to one if he will allow it do so), rather than from just the outer intellectual consciousness.
Remember always! Everything done by the ascended host has a definite purpose behind that activity and, somehow, there must be a balance made for the energies expended by them in any project—preferably, of course, from those blessed by them. Now, while we are so very grateful for your interest in our endeavors and that you are willing to become “cups” of our assistance to mankind by receiving our radiation each week as it pours to you through your reading of these “Pearls of Wisdom,” surely you must understand that, in return therefore (from your “side of the veil”) the law requires that you do your part. That “part” is to so live daily in this world of form as, shall we say, to become miniature foci of our light and love, endeavoring to make of your personal worlds miniature lighthouses to all men. This would expand the light and love of our Presence, right wherever you are! Such foci in the world of form are so much needed today, adding as it were to the quantity of our light released here. Then, as you progress in expanded consciousness and greater release of light’s powers, it would add to its quality also.
So, beloved ones, I know you see with me that those of mankind who have accepted the reality and assistance of the ascended host should not think, feel, say or do that which would be out of keeping with what the Great Ones represent. Our blessed chelas who are taking their initiations in the outer experience world today should endeavor constantly to bring their worlds into such divine order that our mastery shows forth through them—in their daily living—even as you would be required to do were you to be taking your training in the retreats of the Great White Brotherhood. We have answered your every call and have given you every assistance your worlds would accept. We know you do treasure these gifts from us and, in return, will endeavor to give us your conscious acceptance and use of our help, to the practical freeing of your own worlds and those of your fellow man—until you come “home” to us—“to go out no more”!
The time of the “unmasking” of truth is at hand! No longer shall the knowledge of its beneficent laws be held within the secret retreats of the Great White Brotherhood. Centuries ago, in speaking prophetically of today, our beloved Jesus said: “That (wisdom) which is done (held) in secret shall be shouted from the housetops (in a later day!)” We are now in that day—when all mankind shall be compelled to know the truth of their own being and be made aware of their divine destiny—which is the attaining of the goal of their ascension in the light!
“O thou light of the ascension! Thou wondrous goal—the knowledge of which is now being offered to all and the possibility of its attainment by even the least in the kingdom of unascended mankind—today! Thou first and highest principle of the instruction released by the Great White Lodge! Let the day come quickly when neither man, woman nor child shall be in ignorance of thy transcendent service.”

I bless you with the fullness of my love!

The Great Divine Director


Note: Gracious Reader—“The Golden Rule” is really the wisdom of the law! So, musing in the radiance of a “Lighthouse Beam,” fuller wisdom says:
“To fill my world with God-success
This year—I can do nothing less
Than love, forgive and all ways bless—
And Bless and Bless and Bless—
Everyone, everything, everywhere!”

Ascended Master Teaching for Friday

Vol. 2 No. 1 - Hilarion - January 9, 1959

The Golden Flame of God Happiness


To the dear hearts who yearn for God’s Happiness and shall have it by sharing it with all life:
Our beloved Ascended Master Hilarion speaks:
The glory of happiness and its transcendent value as a blessing to all life is immeasurable. In the average human experience, there are all too few even tiny moments of “fragmentary” happiness in a whole embodiment and, of course, such moments become dearly cherished memories in the later lives of those to whom they come.
Now—certainly—it does not require an illumined genius to be able to realize that such a state of affairs is not now and never was the intention of a heavenly Father who is all love—and who, in himself, is such a tender and solicitous expression of that love as few unascended can understand. It matters not whether one be a conscious chela of the ascended host; whether one be a student of some metaphysical “school of thought”; whether one be of orthodox belief or whether one understands anything at all of the laws of the universe or not!
Deep in the heart of everyone—within the blazingly beautiful threefold flame of life itself which is anchored there, there lives a focus of the God-virtue of happiness—because, being one of the virtues of the Godhead itself, the desire for happiness is inherent within all life.
From our Temple of Truth at Crete, as our Brotherhood there convened recently around our Council Table, there has come forth the determination to make a supreme endeavor during this new year to flood forth into, through and around humanity, all the evolutions of earth still unascended and the actual substance of the planet itself, our feelings and enjoyment of the golden flame of God-happiness. Remember, dear hearts—this flame is already God-qualified happiness from our octave of expression and can never be requalified by the human! This flame shall do its perfect work! Consciously let it into your worlds every day!
Surely every sincere chela of the ascended ones knows full well that it is their desire—as true messengers of God himself—to have all life (not only the human but elemental kingdom as well) share this feeling of happiness univers­ally. Every lifestream (spiritually illumined or not) is a member of the family of God’s love.
The expressing of human qualities has a similar effect upon the beauty of life’s divine pattern as does the ruffling of the feathers of a bird—the beauty of its design is distorted. However, when God-qualities are expressed, the energies are in alignment with truth and the beauty of the divine pattern is revealed. So, we of the ascended host neither acknowledge the reality of nor give our power of attention to the unfortunate human qualities which sometimes seem to possess mankind, making them act in such a way as to bring their mistakes to the attention of all, through the front pages of your newspapers. In our dealings with all men—conscious chelas as well as those who have not yet acknowledged our reality or our service—we are only cognizant of that immortal threefold flame of eternal truth within every heart—its beauty and happiness presently held as a prisoner within the “shell” of human personality.
Did you ever think of how much glamour the passing of time has cast upon the lifestreams of those who today are considered to be and worshipped as “saints” and “sages”? If you think about it a moment, they were not always so—for, in their imperfect and unascended state of consciousness, perhaps at times they did that which would not have been attractive to you at all. I tell you the truth when I say that it is the great mercy of life which prevents each of you from being aware of every past embodiment you have had which did not always express truth! Those who would exploit mankind often choose to favor them by revealing to them some glory from previous lives—but it is not our desire to deceive anyone. We speak only truth! Now, should it not bring you happiness to know of a certainty that if these Great Ones to whom we have referred have attained their victory you can?
Now, beloved chelas—those of you who today are endeavoring to follow the light and love for its own sake—will consciously divest yourselves of “human” purposes and will endeavor daily to lovingly cooperate with the admonishment of beloved Jesus, beloved John and all the Great Teachers of real truth all through the ages: “Love one another.” If suddenly there should occur an expansion of your consciousness so that you would be able to see as we do, the numbers of lifestreams in the world around you who are calling to Deity for help, you would quickly and clearly understand the great need of eliminating from your world all the pettiness of human affairs—taking thought only of the opportunities of the cosmic moment which is at hand, to do your best. This “best” is to serve only the light which can and shall set all life here eternally free!
Therefore, beloved of our hearts—you who would be “arms of our Presence” in the world of form—representing our freeing and forgiving love to all life, let not the day go by without at least one conscious endeavor to expand our happiness to all. Make at least one being smile and, for all you meet, make life seem worthwhile! So do you consciously expand “the light of the world.”

“I AM”—radiantly yours—

Hilarion

Note: Gracious Reader! The staff of The Lighthouse of Freedom decrees for you and yours a most God-victorious New Year in 1959—the best you have ever known in every way. May we offer you a few lines which, repeated often as a prayer— will do much to make it so:
My very own beloved “I AM” Presence—
With a brand New Year before me—
Let me do my very best
With all my God-abilities,
To bring life peace and rest.
So let me live and serve all
That, at the close of day—
The life in all is happier
Because I passed that way!

Vondir to you all!
