DIVINE DIRECTIVES THE GOLDEN AGE by Beloved Saint Germain My Beloved Friends, I would like to give you an explanation of the Foundation upon which the New Age of Freedom is being builded, in order that you may more fully comprehend the reason why this shall be a PERMANENT GOLDEN AGE from which there can be no receding, In all former Golden Ages and great advance ments of civilizations, the great God Beings who overshadowed these civilizations were the sustaining Consciousness of the people, In the now dawning Golden Age, the Spiritual Hierarchy is feeding and expanding the individual consciousness of each lifestream in redeeming and perfecting that consciousness from within so that it will become a self-sustained and strong consciousness which embraces the Truth dnd Perfection which is within the Cosmic Consciousness which We in the Higher Realms enjoy and use at all times. When this is attained, the physical manifestations of Beauty and Perfection will increase as the momentum of this New Age gathers and the Power will emanate not from an overshadowing Presence of the As cended Masters alone but from the cooperative unfoldment of humanity as a whole, In this manner when the individual conscious ness and the patterns of Beauty and Perfection are blended in the inner man, there will be no retrogression or surcease from that expansion of Beauty and Perfection. Throughout the centuries man has been healed of diverse imperfection of mind and body by 2 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES ~he mercy of Perfected Beings and has again, in the same or succeeding embodiments, manifested the same discomforts and imperfection. In this New Age, all healings will come through the illumination of the inner consciousness of man and he, through the conscious use of the Flame, cooperating with the Cosmic Flame of Mercy, will have the Power to dissolve or transmute all the accumulation in his lifestream that has caused such diseases and distress. These healings will be permanent because when the mind and the heart of man are illumined and the inner con sciousness accepts and sustains a pulse-beat of perfect Harmony, the outer self will manifest and sustain Eternal Youth, Beauty and Perfection as well as the Godliness as embodied by the Ascended Masters. The intellect of man had felt that the inception of this New Age is a slow and seemingly unproductive process. It has been felt that conditions under the direct guidance of the Ascended Masters should more quickly express the fulness of the ideal and that the chelas should manifest more Perfection in their worlds and affairs. Permit Me to emphatically state that We are not concerned with temporary displays or phenomena that cannot be sustained by the con sciousness of the individual! The Spiritual Hierarchy is releasing as much Perfection as the individual lifestream·can accept and sustain when that one makes application to the Cosmic Law, for it would not be the part of wisdom to saturate a chelais being with the Perfection of the Inner Realms until he, in his own developed capacity can sustain that Gift or Gifts without the sustaining Power of the Ascended Master. We are not concerned with temporary delights which the chela may be enjoying but through Our Instruction, We are building into the conscious ness the causes of Perfection which will gather momentum as the chela so desires to energize them. As you enrich your consciousness through the power of your attention upon Godliness, you will find that more and more of the longed-for God Gifts and Virtues will manifest in your personal environment, and in the world of others as you call them forth. It is not the prerogative of the Ascended Masters to free, heal, illumine or supply the outer self except by changing the inner man and then only through the free will cooperation of the individual lifestream. The Spiritual Hierarchy lovingly offers the chelas the fulness of the Cosmic Consciousness which is a reservoir of Perfection, and upon the heart call of any of you, We gratefully pour this "golden Oil" into the cup of your being. When your consciousness is filled with the richness of God Perfection, there is no power anywhere in the Universe which can keep that Good from flowing through the harmony of your being into your world and throughout the Planet for the enrichment of all life! Be ever mindful that harmony is the Key which opens the door to the release of any or all of Cod ! s Blessings and it is My Heart prayer that this so important lesson will be soon learned by all of the chelas. God Bless you! DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES THE DESIRE FOR PERFECTION by Beloved Elohim Hercules Beloved staunch Spirits of the Almighty serving on the Planet Earth with the one purpose in mind - that of doing the Will of God and assisting the Spiritual Hierarchy in bringing the Permanent Golden Age to fruition as quickly as possible, I greet you with the deep gratitude of My Being. The limitless field of Cosmic Service open to any individual who has a conscious knowledge of the use of the Sacred Fire can scarcely be conceived by the intellect of man. Every indi vidual, finding himself restricted by a physical garment, experiences the limitations which the imposed karma through the misuse of God's Energy has placed upon that vehicle, However, once the consciousness is freed from the limiting concepts of human thinking, that one may soar on the and become a conscious Dweller in the Fourth Dimensional Plane. Such an one then has the power to 'adjust' conditions of an imperfect nature which are expressing in the world of form. A moment's reflection will show the chela that he is of the same Mind as the Cosmic or Ascended Being, for in the oneness of that Consciousness, he becomes immersed in the ecstasy and Beauty and Perfection.and his being pulsates with the desire to bring Perfection to all life! At this point, I would like to impress upon your consciousness that Perfection is everywhere, and while you, in using the limited conscious ness of the human self, sometimes feel that you are limited in your service, you should endeavor at all times to dismiss such an idea. When one thinks of limitation, he is thinking of the lower self - forgetting that he functions at all times from consciousness. Limitation only occurs when he chooses the human rather than the Cosmic Consciousness of Perfection. We have recently brought to your attention the ease with which you may cross the Bridge from the human into the Realm of the Divine, and contemplation will show you the rationality of choosing the Cosmic Consciousness. When a chela functions from the Cosmic Consciousness, he has the ability to draw the Sacred Fire from the One Supreme Source of which he is an active component, and may direct the Rays of Light to •treat' any negative manifestation through the merciful use of all the Seven Rays - should the requirement be one of Healing, Purity, Divine Love, Illumination and so on. We have counselled you to become co-creators with the Spiritual Hierarchy, and the hour has now arrived when you should be able to function freely from the Higher Consciousness. If you would make it a practice of consciously returning to that Consciousness when, due to a momentum gained through the centuries of functioning in the lower consciousness, you slip into the groove thus created, you would find it more desirable to use the Exalted Consciousness and thus be in the world but not of it. There are many among you, in fact all of the chelas could become co-creators with the Supreme Source if they would but dispense with the lethargy in their lower vehicles. This bogs them down through the insidious whispers of negative thoughts which are spawned for the satisfaction of the human self which does not desire to make knew! THE DIVINE PLAN by Beloved Elohim Vista Much and yet wanting chelas. DIVINE DIRECTIVES architectural drawing which They were to follow. They, in turn, made an etheric replica of this Divine Plan and placed It in the atmosphere above the physical substance which They were drawing into manifestation. This completed Universe - accurate to the smallest detail -- became a pulsating, shining reality in the inner world. The Devas of Form and the Sprites of Nature were instructed as to their part in the evolutionary scheme, and the Divine Plan for each lifestream remains a pulsa ting, breathing Flame in the world of the Real. When the individual was in constant communi cation with his own God Self, it was an easy matter for the physical personality to fulfill the Plan in accordance with the Divine Will and the with mankind in creating the physical manifesta tion of the inner Etheric Pattern. When man ceased to communicate with the God Self, the Divine Plan was impeded, and that is why the cosmic evolution of the Earth is so far behind cosmic schedule. Great men and women, from time to time, have had the privilege of raising their consciousness to a point where they might glimpse a part of this shining etheric vision and then, through tenacity of purpose, they have been able to in spire lesser men to the task of making the physical appearance world yield to the Will of God. Great Statesmen, poets and writers, artists and musicians have thus presented the slower and heavier minds of the masses with the inspiration DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES which was to be an outer expression of the inner Truth. Where such a receptive vessel was found, the Divine Plan was literally pushed forward by the Invisible Host Who have waited for such chan nels through the centuries. The Call for the Divine Plan to be fulfilled makes each person an open door through which the surge the Flame which will make the unresponsive consciousness of mankind aware of the True Des tiny of the individualizations of God and the Planet as well. To go a step further, and rising in conscious ness to view the Glory of the Divine Plan for individuals and for a locality or a nation is still a greater service, for such an one may through inspirational means, convey to the minds of the willing but unresponsible, the ways and means by which this Divine Plan can be inter preted. There are few who can rise above the Earth pull to a point where the inner sight may view the surrounding Glory, and among these few there are less still who have the ability of interpre tating their inner vision in a manner to inspire confidence and inspiration in others. These individuals are rare, and yet most are needed for the instruction of the Gods, and the Will of the Father must, by Cosmic Law, reach man through natural rather than supernatural means, except on rare occasions when the Cosmic Law permits an Avatar to come forth. Beloved Saint Germain has said that it is as easy to be aware of things years ahead as it is to secure a book from the library. He means by this that the only pre-destination there is for man and for beast and the Earth must, by the magnetic pull of the Cosmic cause, sooner or later express Perfection through cooperation with the Cosmic Law, until every atom and every cell of the Earth-plane and the life upon It has become an outpicturing of the Divine Blue Print. This is a Cosmic Fiat to which there is no exception! THE BEAUTY OF GOD'S PLAN by Beloved Elohim Vista Beloved chelas, you are acquainted with the fact that the Elohim are the Cosmic Builders of the Planet, and I, as Elohim of the Fifth Ray, would like to elaborate a little on Our Service. The pressure of Light behind evolution that surges through the consciousness of mankind is the upward arc expressing as the Ascended "I AM" Presence. When an individual enters the conscious pathway toward Perfection, he enters the stream of Electronic Force, which is a conscious Gift of the Elohimic Builders. As the Divine Plan fulfilled is the Ascen sion, and as the Elohim represent the Divine Intelligence directing the Ascension, They are very closely connected with each individual's endeavors to attain the Ascended Master con- sciousness. 10 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES As the Light is released into the Earthplane daily through a downwarn surge of Electronic Force, so is there daily an upward flow of Elec tronic Light that carries with It all the aspi ration and all the consciousness of mankind that is looking upward! One can consciously tune in to this River of Ascending Force, and thus be drawn into the full gathered momentum of Godly directed energy. This River of Force is a re quisite for that part of Life which has been bound by human thinking, in order to strengthen the aspiring God Flame to a point where It may be disconnected from the Earth pressure and thus flow freely into the Higher or Ascending Stream of energy. Who has achieved the Ascension consciously tuned into this River of Force which the Elohim have provided as a conveyor of man's consciousness back to God. It is as though you stepped on a Cosmic escalator and were carried by the Love of the Elohim upward toward the Goal which your heart desires. The pressure of this surging sea of force is essential because the mass of mankind are constantly pouring forth their energy in a man ner opposed to the Divine Plan, and unless they get into the rhythmic pulsation of the Divine Plan, as released by the Love and Light of the Elohim, they are still a part of the outer mind or consciousness. How We long for artists with esoteric vision to convey to canvas the Beauty of these Cosmic Truths. Sometimes a painting can convey through the senses enough of the Truth to awaken the sleeping soul, and in the world and realm o.f the r future - the New Age - Beloved Serapis Bey will spread the Light through canvas, through sculp ture and various other media of art, the dance, the song, the melody and so on, The Great Divine Plan is so beautiful, It contains such exquisite harmony, happiness and rhythm - that it is truly a tragedy to see mil lions of people creating •straw houses' built of their own human imaginings of what life should be, when above and behind their caricatures of life stand the most exquisite edifices awaiting the wind of adversity that will blow apart their human designs --- and when they find themselves among the ruins, they will look up and see the true pattern upon which they should build. For centuries the Elohim have waited and now is the hour of fulfillment. With the speed of Hercules' Blue Lightning, mankind will be forced to look to the Divine Architect, and then build with the Force of Nature according to the Divine Plan. It would be opportune if the beloved chelas who know of nnd use the Sacred Fire of transmu tation and Purification would call for the puri fication of all lifestreams on this Planet who have builded a momentum in artistic endeavors so that the magnificent Gifts in their Causal Bodies could readily flow through their con sciousness and express in the world of form something for the upliftment of all mankind. I assure you that Beloved Serapis would welcome any invocation for the God-expression of Beauty on this Earth. All of the Elohim are so desirous of assis ting in the precipitation of God's Perfection 12 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES in the world of form, and you, beloved ones, have but to turn your attention to Us, rhythmicaily, to witness the results of the simple instruc tion which I have lovingly presented to you to day. LIGHT FROM LUXOR by Beloved Serapis Bey Hosts directly concerned with the evolution of perfect bodies and perfect expressions of art, architecture, etc., work in the realm of crea tive thought and feeling constantly. As you know, They are invisible for the most part to the physical sight, and the Fourth Dimensional activities are active in the same sphere as is the consciousness of mankind, likewise invisible. For the individual who chooses to bring forth great manifestations of beauty and perfection, and to attune his or her lifestream to a point where he may be an OPEN DOOR through which the Beauty of the Golden Age, the plans, models and forms might express, has a magnificent oppor tunity of inviting these Cherubic, Seraphic, Angelic Builders of Form to enter his or her consciousness and create Their Perfect Patterns, enriching the individual consciousness without limit. The Beings, working in the Universe, can be invited into an individual's consciousness and allowed to pursue Their creative talents there, even as you would invite a talented musi cian into your music room. The great point of this instruction is that aside from your own God Self's Creative Power, these Beings, Who are Individualizations of God• s Own Divine Ideas, can build within your con sciousness such richness of Beauty and Form as the mind of man cannot conceive. They will wel come this opportunity because these Divine Im ages can only find expression in the physical world through the door of some incarnate life stream's consciousness, otherwise They live in Their Great Etheric Beauty in the unformed; but as These Angelic Beings build into a human be ings consciousness this Perfection, the Law of Life is that whatever is within the human con sciousness must be precipitated in the world of form, and therefore Their building and creative talents find a completeness that they could not without the cooperation and the partnership of an unascended being. I would like to make this very plain •.• what a man holds in his consciousness is the CAUSE, and what reflects in the physical appearance as his body, his surroundings, his environ ment, is the EFFECT of the Inner Cause. It is impossible for any human appearance in the physical world to remain, if the Inner Cause in the consciousness is removed or trans muted into a Divine Idea. It is likewise - impossible for any appearance to record in the world of man unless there is an Inner Cause in someone's consciousness. The Ascended Host and the Builders and Creators of Form dwell in a Realm wherein Their Consciousness is outpictured in Perfection and great Beauty, BUT the Consciousness of the A.scended Host, the Angels and the Beings Who 14 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES dwell in the Realm of Perfection cannot be reflected in the physic3l appearance world except through a member of humanity who still belongs to the human race. Such an one, opening his consciousness to the Gods and allowing Them to create within it these Divine Ideas and Pictures, Temples, Homes, etc., become a step down transformer and an open door, a channel through which these Divineideasbecome physical expressions, THE RAY OF BEAUTY - - - by Beloved Lady Venus Children of God, your great love and dedica tion to the service of freeing the Planet Earth from the shadows, has drawn Me into your atmos phere! All the so-called matter in the physical world is energy and therefore intelligent ••• the sub stance composing the physical chairs, tables, etc. has intelligent light, and will respond to the direction of the Creative Flame within the heart. It is, therefore, a matter of speaking directly to the substance around you and through the creative word "I AM" command it to express Beauty and Perfection. Command the physical world to yield to you the Beauty which expresses the Divine Plan. You, who crave to draw Beauty into the physical world for the Glory of God, must realize that as this is in accordance with your Divine Plan of Life you are in tune with the Infinite and in your very desire it makes your accomplishment a natural activity and not one that breasts the tide of evil. In other words, you are swimming with the forward, upward stream, and not in your frail barques attempting to hold back the glorious perfection and beauty of the Age of Perfection now dawning. The Ray of Beauty is the Crystal and the highest rate of vibratory action as expressed in each of the seven colors. Beauty and Love are Perfection and the more Beauty that is expressed in the indivictual and his surroundings, the higher the vibratory action of his life stream.The mental and feeling world of the individ ual, which is a constant flow of energy, sets the rate of vibratory action for that indivictual and tr.at which he drc..ws about him corresponds in substance with the keynote of his lifestream. Therefore, to have beauty about one, the indi vidual must quicken the rate of vibratory action within his lifestream and as that rate increases, the exquisite beauty which vibrates at a similar rate will be drawn about him - as like attracts like Above and below. The Law of magnetic attraction is little understood by the chelas who desire to bring forth the Temples and exquisite and priceless works of art that will adorn them. The individual desiring to be a focus for such physical beauty as expressed in these price less treasures must remember that unless the vibratory action of his own lifestream is the drawing power, the beauty, though it may come by effort of will, will not remain. Thus, there must be a constant vigilance in keeping the lifestreams of those who attend the Flame in the Temple of their beings vibrating at a rapid enough rate to sustain the Gifts that the Gods will give into their keeping. 16 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES You, dear chelas, abiding on the Earth, should be the Divine Magnets to draw and to hold the Glories that ·will make mankind stand in wonder and admiration, and then through the hearts craving for beauty, bring them into an under standing of the Law by which they, too, may be surrounded by the Gifts that this Earthplane and this System of Planets can bestow. Looking upon your dear lifestreams, "I AM" so very grateful to see that your vehicles which are the Temples of the most High Living God are expressing a greater beauty than they did a short time ago, and as you continue to sustain the higher vibratory action of your vehicles, will the greater Beauty of surroundings be yours. My Heart is filled with the Beauty of the Father-Mother God, and if you desire My assist ance to raise the vibratory action of your own vehicles, a heart desire and call to Me will bring you My Love and Beauty on Wings of Light, Beauty. natural Effect and Result of Love. However, Beauty in Itself becomes a Cause, for Beauty is contagious. It is inspiring - It is soul satis fying and It is one of the natural qualities of Life. REALITY by Beloved El Morya The world without is but a photographic plate of sensitive "aether" which is but in a sense a mirror for the thoughts and feelings of individuals. It, is in a constant state of change due to the fluctuation of the thought and feeling processes in the minds and hearts of mankind. This picture is what mankind terms "reality" because to the senses they can see and touch the passing forms and they have become so enmeshed in that which the senses report as true that they consider it reality. On the contrary, there is an inner world which is never changing except in an expanding quality of Perfection. This inner world is re flected on the screen of the outer world "aether" in the more or less stationary expressions of Nature •••• mountains, seas and lakes. Wherever a. man or woman can be found who will cease to generate human thought and feel ing, through such an one the world of the Real begins to pour Its picture and through that lifestream more and more of Divine Reality is stamped on the substance of the Earthsphere. There are two distinct creators •• and unless the human self is still, the Divine Creator with in the individual is unable to project the True Picture of that one's Reality from within out, because every impulse from the "I AM" Presence that would normally and naturally reflect Per fection on the substance of that one's world is interfered with by the numerous human emanations 18 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES that break the pattern. You have the Pure Light from the Presence playing into the substance of the Earth on the screen of life and that Ray would automatically mould the Essence of Life into Beauty, Opulence, Peace, Harmony and so on. However, there con stantly steps between the Pure Light and Its manifestation the human self that attracts the energy into its own use and then sends it on the screen of life as limitation, anger, irritation, poverty, sickness and so-called death. When a chela will acknowledge his lower self as a distortion of life and then COMMAND the hu man self SILENT, the Inner Presence will immedi ately begin to work and the world of the REAL will express through the personal life of such an one. Anyone desiring to express the WILL OF GOD, which is the outpicturing of the REAL, will find the enfolding Radiation of the First Ray - upon which I am privileged to serve - about him to assist him to sustain this God-ordained state of Being. THE LIVING WORD - - - by Beloved Jesus Beloved children of the One God! I bring to you today the LIVING WORD which is My Life - that Word which also is the Life of every Cosmic Being, Ascended Master and Angel Who brings to you Their Gifts of Light from time to time. That Word is a living part of Their Consciousness and very Being. Does It continue to live in you after you have received It? What do you contribute to that LIVING WORD given into your consciousness, your mind, your feelings, your flesh? Does that LIVING WORD mean as much to you today (when to your physical eye-sight I seem invisible) as it did in the days when I spoke to you while wear ing a flesh garment, so that your outer senses might be the comfort of form? Think of this, beloved ones! Every bit of instruction, radiation and blessing transferred to an individual from an Ascended Being or even from a Teacher, Minister, Priest or Rabbi (Or thodox, Metaphysical or Occu].t) is a part of the very life of the Teacher entering into the world of the student. Thereafter, It either lives there, activated by joyous buoyant acceptance; by mental remembrance in the process of applica tion; by etheric vitalization of that instruc tion and by physical works •••• or, by lack of acceptance and attention, It is allowed to "go to seed" so to speak! Long ago, in some of My parables I spoke about the 'seed' which was cast on shallow ground and on the rocks, in contrast to that which was cast into the good earth, which grew and brought forth a harvest. I bring this to your remembrance because Our Words are Our Life, containing Our Conscious ness and Our very Selves -- given in great Spirit ual generosity, according to the Dispensation of the Cosmic Law. As at present, these great Gifts are given to just a mere 'handful' of people, hoping that These Words Will Live in Works Well Done, emotionally, mentally, ether ically and physically. 20 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES Beloved ones, you are people who have a vo cation and that vocation is a Spiritual One! In other words, the Immortal Three-fold Flame of Eternal Truth within your heart made a vow to God and certain Masters to perform a chosen service in this world of form. However, you do not - as yet - have a vocation of the soul as well - at least not completely. There is a difference, you see, and that is w.here your personal "Armageddon" comes in. In the fullest freedom of the Inner Levels, it is very easy for the Immortal Three fold Flame of God - the Immortal Identity of you - to vow to assist, for instance, in a World Movement like this of the Beloved Saint Germain; but the soul-self, with its etheric memories, its mental concepts, its emotional tendencies, is not always wholly cooperative with that Spiritual vocation. There is a battle between the pres sures of self dedication to Cosmic Service and the surrender of the soul (outer self) to God and that service. The Church endeavors to pre pare the individual for a "soul-dedication". That is My endeavor with you now. Spiritually, you have made your vocation manifest in serving this Freedom Flame and mankind at large for many years. Sometimes, though, your soul has longed for release, relief and respite from this con tinuous task and that has caused a "war" in the feelings between the desire to serve the Christ or the "passing" man. Now, to dedicate your soul and to really have a vocation of your outer self, you must persis tently pursue the Seven Steps of Creation (or Precipitation) which has been placed before you again and again. FIRST: You must be willing to do the WILL OF GOD in joyous humility; SECOND: You must be willing to PERCEIVE the WILL OF GOD - that which He desires you to do - by listening for and hearing the "still small voice within" or from Those of the Ascended Host Who choose to assist you; THIRD: You must have a willingness to learn to really LOVE God, the Ascended Host and the Angels; FOURTH: You must be willing to become absolutely PURE in motive -- (let Me emphasize that again and again). It is the PURITY OF MOTIVE which will determine the efficacy of your works; FIFTH: You must be willing to CONSECRATE your feelings; (here is the place where you will have to watch yourself when you take step No. 5). If you were to give Me your feelings today in a burst of enthusiasm and say: "Lord, these are Thine", I should expect to keep you at the rate of vibratory action which is Mine. Would you think it fair, then, to take them back and ex press through them the feelings of the outer self such as depression or rage? Are you able to consecrate your feelings to Me today with no reservations? I wouldn't answer that question - if I were you - until I thought about it well, for if you were so to do, I should consider your feeling world My Own. If you were to give your mind to Me today and say: "Lord this mental body is Thine, never, never again will I think of anything less than the same perf·ect concepts which fill Your Thoughts." Could you then let your mental body lie within the com pass of My Thinking? Were you to give your etheric body to Me today and say: "Lord, here are my memories. Transmute 22 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES that which is not of the Light and keep the rest as a heritage." Would you not be inclined to remember some grievance and take back the gift you had given Me? Were you to give Me your flesh body today and say: "Lord, without reservation this flesh body is Thine." Then, should I say: "We shall walk, then, the width of this great Continent or Its length " would that flesh body still remain Mine? When you make a sincere con secration which is a part of a soul's vocation, it is ALL - dear hearts - OR NOTHING! SIXTH: You must be willing to stay and MINISTER TO MANKIND long enough to finish the service you have vowed to give; SEVENTH: You must be willing to believe in and desire to learn the most efficacious way of draw ing the Grace of Heaven (INVOCATION) unto Earth. Pin your soul against the wall tonight - dear hearts - like the shadow of Peter Pan. SEE HOW MUCH YOU ARE GIVING and how much you are RESERV ING! I say this only because the more you give Us - honestly - without fear and without regrets, the more We can use you and the more quickly you become like Us. May all the blessings of the Most High Living God and the Peace of th.e Eternal Father rest upon, be alive and active in and through you. May that day quickly come when your souls can humbly stand before whatever Master has sponsored you and make that surrender which will give to you the power of conducting all the radiation of that Master's Presence into this world of form. THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF DIVINITY --- by Beloved Saint Germain My dear Friends, when the Flame of Pure Divine Love rises from your hearts to any Being in Heaven's Realm, that one immediately feels the Flame of Gratitude well within His Own Being, and He refurns that li,ove in amplified activity. You have raised your consciousness to Me with such deep sincere Love that you have brought Me into your midst today! Now what shall I talk about? Oh, there are so many aspects of the Spiritual L~w upon which I could discourse but I have decided upon what you are today, the sum total of your thoughts and feelings - your consciousness! This subject has been brought to your attention over and over again, but I shall endeavor to give you some of the principles which may assist you. They can and will if you apply the instruction given. It has been said, and truly, that' a house divided cannot stand'. The Truth within this statement is that an individual who separates himself from the Divinity of his being cannot proceed into his Eternal Freedom until the lower self, which has 'divided itself' from the Christ Presence, decides that he has had enough of this separate way of living and, in humility, sets about the blending of his lower vehicles into the vibratory action of the Indwelling Christ. While the consciousness entertains both good and evil at alternate times, neither the positive nor the negative is fully expressed. No mastery can be attained while the house is divided, for the entertainment of imperfection, at. any time, pro~ides an open door through ~hich more negation can enter and express itself. 24 DIVINE DIRECTIVES Now I wish to assure you that I am greatly encouraged by the advancement of your con sciousness, for you have applied yourself to one of the principles by which you may attain the Perfection of your individualized "I AM" Presence, and that is in the opening of your consciousness to the acceptance of the Ascended and Cosmic Hosts as a REALITY and have, to a large degree, followed the Instruction which We have been privileged to present to you. Since you have provided the Cup of your Consciousness and raised it to Us, Cosmic Law demands that We fill your Vessel with as much as you can understand and absorb. Ofttimes, chelas who have a great mental accretion in their consciousness, entertain the thought:"Oh I wish They would give us something new!" Ah .• grasp that intruder quickly and get it out of your world immediately. When you lapse into that frame of mind, it is proof that you do not know or understand the Spiritual Law which has been presented to you. The privileged chelas Of THE BRIDGE TO FREEDOM have reams and reams of Spiritual Instruction which, •••• if applied, would assure them their Ultimate Victory in the Light. The Library of your consciousness is filled with instruction which heretofore was given only to initiates in the physical Retreats of the Ascended Masters but which now, because of the acceleration of the Planet necessitated by the Seventh Ray Dispensation becoming more prominent, is presented to you in simple language in an endeavor to reach your consciousness and become a part thereof as quickly as possible. In the process of inviting the Ascended and DIVINE DIRECTIVES Cosmic Host to fill your consciousness with the Truth which is a part of Their Individual Con sciousness - the momentum of a special Virtue or Virtues which They have elected to ensoul for the enrichment of the Consciousness of the Whole -- you have raised your consciousness to the degree where there are tremendous possi bilities within your reach. As you permeate your worlds with the ability to accept those God Virtues, they become a part of your beings, and as a result, you have the capacity to wield the Sacred Fire and increase the Perfection of the Universe. Fire, where conditions of a negative nature are manifesting, by directing the Ray of Transmuta tion into the imperfection, it can be replaced immediately by any of the God Virtues which you have drawn into and stored within your Causal Body. Do you not realize that every time you do this, you EXPAND the Borders of God's Kingdom, that Kingdom being the consciousness of the cosmos, without any limited periphery - expand ing - expanding - on and on until everywhere it touches, the Beauty and Perfume of God's Love anoints all? Through the process of inviting the Con sciousness of the Heavenly Ones abiding forever in God's Perfection, you more quickly attain the Consciousness of the At-one-ment to which all chelas aspire. In so doing, one must realize that he enters different states of Consciousness each carrying their own 'wave Leriqt.h " or vibratory action. One often 'discovers' the Ray to which he belongs in this manner and that explains why his consciousness differs from another chela on the Path. However, when the chela has advanced DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES sufficiently and entered deeply into the Cosmic Consciousness, he has bacome conversant with or attuned to, the rates of vibration on all the Rays, and his fellow-travelers do not disturb him by other vibratory actions. "I AM" speaking of the Consciousness Of Perfection which is enjoyed by the Perfected Ones and not what is referred to as the "mass consciousness" which is made up of the concepts and actions of the human way of thinking builded through aeons of time, and which presently forms the effluvia which enshrouds the Planet. My so-loved Friends, I offer you the Cup of My Consciousness and I invite you to drink deeply of the Elixir of Divinity. Every time you so desire Its Essence, I shall so gratefully fill your Cup, so long as you remember that all life is ONE, and that it is your responsibility to share your consciousness, through radiation and otherwise, with your fellow traveler upon the Planet Earth until his cup runneth over also! THE ACTIVITY OF FIRE --- by Beloved Zarathustra Fire is the all-encompassing activity of God. The Godhead always appears clothed in Robes of Flame. It is the highest manifestation of visible, tangible substance. Light is an emanation of the Flame - the Cosmic Effect - and the Fire of Creation is the Cosmic Cause. Authority both in the Forces of the Elements, in the life of man and in the Solar System. There is a nameless, unseen, indescribable FORCE within the Fire, which is Its Heart Center, but for man, the highest that his brain can comprehend as the manifestation of God is Fire. The Fire of Creatiun is the individual, Eternal Identity of every human being. It is dual in Its purpose, for It constantly creates manifestations of Itself, and may be called on to transmute imperfect expressions. ThiR two fold action of Fire is the Gift of God to His Creation. The worship of the Fire is the most ancient of spiritual customs of the peoples of this Planet and other Planets as well. The activity of Our Beloved Saint Germain is an activity of Fire, as the Violet Transmuting Flame is obvious ly one of the manifold expressions of this Fire of God. In your physical world, the Elements of Water, Air and Earth are provided for man without self-conscious effort on his part and given as Gifts for his use, but to enjoy the fourth Element, which is by Its Name an element of the Fourth Dimension, one must exert conscious effort and through certain processes draw forth the Fire. This is true not only in your ordinary physical activity, but also in your Spiritual. It was My great privilege many centuries ago to bring the physical knowledge of the Fire Element to the outer minds of man that they might use It for heat, light, and in Its transmuting activity, to remove debris. DIVINE DIRECTIVES "I AM" tremendously interested in the activity of Beloved Saint Germain because, of course, It is My Natural Element and I shall now take a more active part in the kindling of this Spirit ual Fire in the hearts and minds of His chelas. DIVINE DIRECTIVES CONTROL OF THE FIRE ELEMENT - - by Beloved Zarathustra "I AM" Zarathustra, High Priest of the Fire Element! "I AM" in all life, for "I AM" the Sacred Fire in action everywhere! In this world of form when one refers to fire, invariably the element of fear enters the con sciousness of those concerned. One notices the rapid spread of uncontrolled fire, and the chaos which ensues. Since you are beings of Fire, that is why it is so important that you learn control of your actions. Control of the Fire Element (which is Sacred Energy) in your worlds is under the direction of the Holy Christ Self, and it is expedient that you lay your lower vehicles on the Altar of The Christ Self daily, in order that the Christ can be given the pre rogative of being the Directing Intelligence of your lifestream and take control of your actions. When referring to the physical fire, chem icals and water are used to extinguish the uncontrolled or rampant fire element. I call your attention to the fact that an uncontrolled emotional body can retard the perfect action of the Fire Element, for, We know that the Fire Element, in the God-free Estate, is God in action and flows freely to bless all life, transmuting all less than Christ Perfection. You have used the affirmation - "I AM" THE FIRE BREATH OF THE ALMIGHTY, - that Fire Breath is the Essence of Divinity. gives you life, is released from that Beloved Being in a rhythmic and dedicated manner. After that Holy Breath flows to and through you, to what use do you put It? Is it sent forth into the Universe carrying a Blessing with which all Life will be enriched? A steady rhythmic flow of the Fire Breath from the chelas can, and must, become a benediction to all life. We in the God-free Estate are accountable for every parti cle of energy which eminates from Our Beings, and when the chelas in whom We invest Our Love receive of the Essence of Our Beings, It is to be dispensed for the benefaction of life. Do you understand that not only you, but We are respon sible for your use of the Sacred Essence of Divinity! Contemplating this Truth, you will see that you should bless every Breath, and the Beloved Maha Chohan Himself, for His Loving Kindness to you! It is easily understood that each chela, all life for that matter, is aligned with the Beloved Holy Spirit as His Breath flows steadily through your beings to animate your vehicles and assist you to fulfill the purpose for which you were give~ physical embodiment. Oh, children of the Father, the supreme Source of all Life remember DAILY to give the most sincere Grati tude which you can engender to that Most Beloved and Revered Maha Chohan! indicates enthusiasm. brought to fruition. eventually attain. we know that the In the scientific field, their launching pad missiles are ejected from Fire Element. There DIVINE DIRECTIVES must be precision control of the use of this Element for the successful ejection of the missile and carrying out of a specific plan. The chela must advance in his use of the Sacred Fire, as are the learned scientists in their specific field, Here we come to the all-important activity of balance. A scale cannot be balanced when there are two different measures of weight used at the same time. The chelas have been instruc ted for many years regarding The Law of Balance. The time has now come when this Law must be employ ed, for the predestined use of raising this Planet and Her evolutions, RIGHT NOW - not tomorrow or next week, is the time for you to learn to serve in cooperation with the Holy Christ Self! In the beginning of your daily routine, dedicate your vehicles - emotional, mental, etheric and physical, in great humility to the Holy Christ Self, and then the direction of your energies will flow freely in the constructive manner which God intended, God will be the dispenser of your life energy, and the little self will be more easily absorbed into the Holy Christ Self, and the battle of the human will cease to be, Ah, My beloved ones, let go and LET GOD! I assure you the seeming obstacles of imperfection in your path will be more quickly removed than the human is capable of grasping. Call to Me, children of Light, and I shall be grateful for the Opportunity of giving you more assistance. "I AM" part of you, and you of Me - for "I AM" the Fire Element, everywhere present! DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES Christ within, and KNOW that I, ZARATHUSTRA, have come to blend your energies, in perfect balance, so you will more quickly experience the meaning of "I AM" THAT "I AM"! by Beloved Serapis Bey I, Serapis Bey, Hierarch of the Retreat of Luxor, am the embodiment of Pure Divine Love. The Gifts of My Ray are purity, beauty and all the ramifications of Beauty on the Heavenly Realms and in the world of form. Why do I speak of My Gifts -- because I bring these Gifts to you. What is Purity? Think a moment what is meant by the Flame of Purity! There is purity of the senses and there is purity expressed in every manifestation on the Earthplane which is unsul lied by the human -- Purity in Art, Purity of Form, Purity of Music, Purity everywhere that the God Gifts flow through man and into manifestation in this physical world. We hear one say purity of motive; the line ~f certain architecture is pure. This covers a tremendous scope, because Life in Its true form is pure. So I bring you that Gift of Purity; yours to guard, treasure, love and expand in all the avenues. Mankind will recognize It in you if you hold to that Glorious Gift. The Fourth Ray carries a tremendous drive that is the Buoyant Enthusiasm of the Ascension Flame. That Ascension, as you know, carries the Happiness and the Ecstasy of all who have made the Final Pilgrimage on Earth and have Ascended into the God Free Estate, and each one leaves some of that Ecstacy in the Holy Ascension Flame. Sphere. You have been told that anchored in your heart is a portion of the Fourth Sphere where the Holy Christ Self resides. I particularly caution you, each and everyone, DO NOT DISREGARD THE HOLY CHRIST SELF! In the Name of God, I, Serapis Bey, plead with you to respect, to honor, to love and obey The Christ within. I SO DECREE IT! The Beloved Christ Self has watched and waited, patiently, for the recognition by t~e outer self through which to assist the outer self into Freedom. It shall not be cast aside, I, Serapis Bey, will not stand for it! With bowed head, I say in all the humility of My Being --- Honor, Love and Respect The Holy Christ Self in all mankind! and although "I AM" a Master of tremendous drive to get things done, "I AM" a Loving One and stand ready to give you assistance at your con scious call. HONORING THE PRESENCE OF GOD - - - by Beloved Kuthumi When a chela honors the Power of God released either directly from the Source of All Life, or directly through One of the Messengers of the Kingdom, such a person, through his own conscious ness, ACCEPTS the God Power as a REALITY that DIVINE DIRECT1VtS DIVINE DIRECTIVES cannot be denied, as an Awe-some Presence Whose Power is Omnipotent, and as an Omniscient Grace Whose Efficacy is Limitless! When such a state of heart and mind is established and maintained by an individual part of the One Life, his con sciousness becomes a mystical, magnetic focus that releases the ever-present God-Power into the Third dimensional plane. In their very innermost nature, every Blessed and Holy One through uplifted thought and feeling, is constantly adoring the God-Principle, acknow ledging Its Active Presence through them, and PRESENCE which knows no defeat nor failure in anything. This is Active Faith - the Faith that moves mountains. When this state of heart and mind is achieved (and It can be by sincere con templation upon the Presence of God) the chela abides in an inner Peace and Tranquility, for he does not expect to wrest from his own person ality, or another's. that which the personal self cannot give. In the silent salutation to of Love, his recognition, acceptance and devotion releases the Power of the Presence to accomplish All Things in his daily living. When the chela realizes that the God-Power will act for and through him - this is one of the greatest links between the chela and the Ascended Master - while the chela thinks that the God-Power will act only for the Ascended Master - he has yet far to go. The line of de marcation is fine, but as we move forward on the Path-Way we learn to Honor The Presence - NOW, in ourselves and in All Life. CONSCIOUSNESS by Beloved Mother Mary Beloved Children of Light, you are attain ing greater freedom and beginning to enjoy the One Eternal Happiness that results from becoming masters of circumstance rather than victims of fate. The lifestreams who begin to perceive the powers of the Sacred Fire and avail themselves of the opportunity of drawing the Sacred Fire into focus, both for the purification of Cosmic Causes, known and unknown, and for the creation of new initial rates of vibration, are passing through the door from the realm of the three dimensions, which is a prison, into the realm of Cosmic Cause, which is the Fourth Dimensional Activity or the Ascended Masters Octave. It is the fulfillment of the promise of Beloved Serapis Bey when He said the chela would consciously pass over the Bridge into the Realm of Divine Ideation, and while yet wearing the garment of flesh, you would no longer be at the mercy of your own misuse of the creative energy or that of others. For many years now you have been receiving instruction on consciousness, and have come to a realization that within the realm of con sciousness is the CA USE of every EFFECT, good or evil, that has appeared or will appear in your WORLDS, but there is SOMETHING ABOVE the consciousness. As you know, consciousness is the effect of the use of the God Principle by a self-conscious intelligence who has woven out of the Universal is formed. tion: individuality; intelligence; consciousness. become form. DIVINE DIRECTIVES Consciousness is the conductor from the unseen to the manifest. The Ascended Masters' Consciousness is used by the Master, within which He creates through the facultie~ of thought and feeling,but, in order to have His manifestation come forth into the physical appearance world, He must use the medium of some consciousness who still belongs in the vibratory action of the race on the Planet which He is assisting. The Cosmic Consciousness flows through the highly evolved pure consciousnessofsomeone who abides on the Planet. Such lifestreams become Cosmic Conductors of Divinity and you have no greater example than that of Our Beloved Jesus. When the Cosmic Christ ~ntered His very Pure Consciousness, the two became ONE, We are constantly counselling the chelas to purify their consciousness so that the Cosmic Powers may flow, for the important reason that the descent of Cosmic Ideas through you would energize and vivify any accumulation through which It passes. In order to have selfless in struments who will allow their consciousness to be used by the Divine Beings, We must be assured that these consciousnesses are 1 i.ke crystal vials through which Our Light, Life and Powers might flow. 38 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES 3_9 THE WORLD OF CREATIVE CAUSE -- by Beloved Victory The chela of Light who has entered the con scious Path to Mastery must one day consciously enter the world of Creative Cause. Here, as an observer, he will contemplate the invincible Causes that have expressed in the world of ap pearances - good, imperfect or indifferent. Power House of Creation. Here he will see the Creative Power in action, generating those forces which produce all the Heaven and hell man experi ences. Then, with the conscious realization that the invisible Realm of Cause is the only realm that requires corrective attention, he will come into the activity of conscious wield ing of the Sacred Fire. Surely, having reached this point upon the Spiritual Path, you know what the Sacred Fire is! However, in an endeavor to further assist you in your evolution, I shall elucidate. The Sacred Fire is che Sacred Energy of Life, moulded consciously and unconsciously into form by the thought and feeling processes of the individual lifestream. It is as simple as that. The use of the Sacred Fire must be intensely directed into all imperfect causes, known and unknown, until the human consciousness is swept clean of every rate of vibration that is not in accord with the Divine Plan. He who is strong enough, determined enough and persistent enough to do this will soon find any uncomfortable effects in his appearance world disappearing. The chela must consciously step over the threshold from the world of effects, knowing that they have no power in themselves, and enter the potent, pulsating Realm of Cause, setting his inner house in order and then, wielding the Power of the Sacred Fire, create in his con sciousness the Perfection he desires to express. I counsel you to realize the unlimited pos sibilities at hand, for in the Realm of Cause, the Cosmic Beings and Ascended Masters are will ing and eager to lend Their Consciousness of Beauty, Their momentums and Their pressure of the Sacred Fire to any aspiring individual who desires to set his house in order. I believe this instruction is particularly apropos at this time, for so many of the chelas are concerned with the lack of some Virtue or Quality, or physical substance in their worlds, and the answer to this so-called problem is right at hand, merely by entering the Realm of Creative Cause and entertaining only that which is Good, and wielding the Sacred Fire to remove all else. I trust the foregoing will be of assistance to you - it can be, if you will accept and use that which is herein presented. THE SUBSTANCE OF EVERY MANIFESTATION by Beloved El Morya The energy of one's own life provides the substance of every manifestation in that one•s world of experience, and the quality of the en ergy determines the quality of the manifest form. 40 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES Thus all the lovely things that are exter nalized in a person8s life and environment are but the crystallized good of that lifestream, utilized by the Holy Christ Self and released by that Holy Christ Self to fill the requirements of the individual during that embodiment. There are conscious and unconscious CAUSES, set up by the lifestream through the use of En ergy. The unconscious Causes result from all the Good the lifestream has done, thus qualify ing the energy drawn from his own "I AM" Pre sence with a constructive radiation, but without conscious knowledge that such good was creating future Merit, Opulence and so on. Through the use of Energy, consciously di rected or unconsciously released, Inner Causes are immediately set into motion. Many life streams through embodiment after embodiment have chosen to utilize their Gift of Life to do Good, to bring Peace; to expand Kindliness, etc. These lifestreams set up causes in the Inner Bodies, which the Holy Christ Self utilizes to protect and provide them at later dates, and even in future embodiments, with the necessities and luxuries of life - which are the outpicturing of their own Energy qualified with Good. In the understanding of the Sacred Fire, how ever, the chelas have entered into a New Realm of Conscious Creation o·f new Causes by the use of applied thought and feeling. You still main tain the accumulated Good which must manifest through your Life experience, but you can now set into action new Causes by focusing your at tention upon a Divine Idea, holding the thought form, filling that form with your feeling and precipitating it into Being. Let us take an example -- a rope of pearls may be placed into the use and keeping of a beautiful woman by her own Holy Christ Self, and those pearls, in their very substance, would be the condensed energy of her Service to the Af flicted centuries ago; or, a chela could receive the Idea from God's Heart of a beautiful neck lace, pour his feeling of love and gratitude through the thought form, and actually, con sciously precipitate the necklace. In both cases the pearls would be the Energy of the lifestream taking the form of a necklace, but the first instance would be unconscious, and the second conscious precipitation. When the Master offers the Good in His Cau sal Body to the chelas, ft is a tremendous Gift, and the Substance can be released through the chela' s own lifestream as every good thing, such as health, money, peace and so on. A.11 substance of furniture, tables, cars, chairs, even excess weight, is the actual Energy of the individual's own lifestream condensed. If it is good - fine! if otherwise, r~deem it by Light! If there is lack - it is because there is not enough reserve Energy provided by the personal self to CONDENSE INTO YOUR USE, WHICH IS ONE OF THE REASONS FOR RELEASING ENERGY IN DECREES. One cannot make a brick house without bricks, and God Himself cannot give you Good except it be through your own Energy released. Individuals with a great store of Energy that can be drawn on by the Holy Christ Self will have quicker release thn.n those who must build up a Cosmic Bank Account. There is no reason for discour agement, because in your own Energy is your Supply, your Freedom, your Health, your Peace and ultimately your A.scension! 42 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES IMMACULATA BELOVED ASSIMILATING TRUTH Blessed chela, the old adage; "where ignor;;i.nce is bliss, it is folly to be wise" has a good deal of truth within it. The indi vidual who has not had the opportunity of receiving assis tance and directions from the Ascended Masters is not as liable before the Cosmic Law for mani fest works as is the one entrusted with the time, energy, thought and instructions of Beings whose every breath is priceless because it can and should be used only to further the Divine Plan. It is not enough to READ the words of the Master, nor to accrete and intellectual knowledge of spiritual fact. The chela must BUILD those words into his own nature and BECOME the Master. KUTHUMI Immaculata Beloved - Giving Her now Freedom's birth! Hail - Thou victorious Presence! Knowing naught else from the start; Ever refusing the shadows - BLAZING THE LIGHT FROM THY HEART!

And for Thy service of ages - Holding God's concept for men; We offer our lifestream's victories To bring our dear Earth 'Home' again! IMMACULATA! (Melody - original) THE SILENT WATCHERS --- by Beloved Immaculata - Planetary Silent Watcher I am the planetary Silent Watcher, sent forth from the great Cosmic Silent Watcher, carrying the design for the Earth within My living, breath ino Being, and the Divine Presence of every lifestream sent forth by Helios and Vesta. I am that Being Who has held within My bosom and consciousness and every life, the living breathing Presence of very Guardian Spirit Who responded to the call of Helios and Vesta and chose to become part of the protection of the evolutions on this Earth. You are part of My body, part of the essence nf My being, and your every breath, every pulsation that passes through the energy of your self-conscious being, passes through the energies of My body and My life. So truly, I know you well! When Helios and Vesta chose to apply for the opportunity of creating a Universe, They expanded out from Their Being, a great sphere of influence; the periphery of that sphere was the periphery of the Universe, within which the planets, the stars and all belonging to that Universe would abide. In the fiat of "Let there be Light," They spun out of Their very Selves that Universal Substance from which the Elohim created the planets, and from whence has come into being all form. As each planet of the system was destined to be breathed forth, from the heart of the Cosmic Silent Watcher, the Planetary Silent Watchers were sent forth. We, in turn, embodied just one planet, taking upon Ourselves the responsibility of holding the Imma_culate Concept for that Planet; 46 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES the rivers, the oceans, ~he mountains, the vast plains, and making available to the Elohim and Builders of Form that pattern which They then wove out of the Universal light-body of Helios and Vesta. ~he first activity of the planetary Silent Watcher is to expand the Causal Body which becomes the cradle in which the planet will rest and the seven great spheres in the bands of cc.tor of Our Causal Body into which the Guardian SDir its, the Angels and Devas come, creating the Seven Heavenly Realms of consciousness for the evolu tions that will evolve on each planet. Out of the substance and energy of the cotors of Our Causal Bodies are woven the temples, the very atmosphere of these Inner Spheres. Out: of the substance of That Body is woven the elem~nts for your Earth! Out of the substance of the Causal Body of the planetary Silent Watche:t is woven the garments, the Seven Vehicles which every lifestream wears. So do you see how ti:-uly ONE We are and how the energy of your inner bociies and your flesh are a part of the living ess(,mce of My very Being! The Design and Purpose of your Being The design and purpose for your being as individuals is to create through the primal essence of light entrusted to you, a duplicat:ion of the majestic perfection of your own Ca~sal Body in this world of form. Your present auzas , made up of the release of energy through ~our mental and feeling worlds, the etheric body and physical form, are not yet the proper conduc'l:.ors for the powers of your Causal Body which you ) ) offered before the Karmic Board and to the Manu of the race to which you belong, as your gift of radiation in this physical appearance world. Each of yoli were chosen after you had passed through the Seven Inner Spheres because you had gathered into your own Causal Body through free will choice, certain momentums of peace, beauty, harmony, healing and many gifts and powers that could be used to externalize the Divine Plan to bless the evolutions upon the Earth at any given time. You must learn to become still It is the requirement- that some means be devised by which you first may become STILL and in enough command of the energies of your own world to silence the violent pulsations in your aura, and then to consciously create through your mental body an accurate vehicle of reception to the divine ideas of your Presence. Your emotional world must become your servant and not your master. You must allow the Presence of God within you enough control so that when you say, "Peace be Still," the energies of your emotional body become the Grail through which the gifts of the Causal Body may be conducted into the worlds of those in distress, bringing harmony, healing, illumination or peace, or what ever the requirement of the given hour may be. The great sea of energy concentrated in the etheric body (wherein is the greatest test for the student) must be purified so that you, abiding within that Sacred Presence of G0d within the heart, may no longer accept the many voices, the etheric rumblings of the centuries past; the 48 DIVINE DIRECTIVES half truths and concepts and pressures that would exalt the self. That etheric body must be pu rified of allsuch nefarious endeavors that would lead the lifestream astray from the path of humil ity. Then can be revivified and sent forth at your command the divine memory, with all the magnificent powers and accomplishments that you wielded as Guardian Spirits on your own Suns and Stars; the memories of your inner activities in the Seven Spheres, and the remembrance of your contact with your Master while your body sleeps at night. Only he who has learned the ~y of the SILENCE, only he who has learned the mastery of the energy which flows in such magnificent opulence from the heart of the First Cause into these vehicles of yours, only he becomes the conductor of the gifts of God into the world of man! Energy is the conductor! Energy and vibration, which is LIFE, is that which carries either peace, love and perfection, or discord and inharmony into the world of form! You, who have professed a deep devotion to God, who have come to a feeling of reverence be fore Life Itself, and a feeling of humility in the use of Life, have come far! You, who have started each day in the great surrender of self and kneeling before your Source asked what pur pose and design your God would choose to manifest through you each day, you are upon the Path, and sooner or later, according to your capacity to relinquish the control of your energies to the Presence of God that is waiting, shall you know your reason for being; -------- and the magnif icent light from your Presence surging through the sea of your feeling world, transform condi tions instantly BRINGING HARMONY, HEALING, MAS TERY AND COMFORT to the Universe! DIVINE DIRECTIVES The use of Life, the purpose for which you were created and have been sustained for millions of years, becomes the prime quest of the individ ual consciousness who is sincere! The use of the gifts and talents, the use of the momentums you have gained, the use of the substance loaned to you, these all should be the quest of your conscious self. Then the intellect no longer directs but the Presence of God, which has magnetized that Life and sustained It that you might have self conscious intelligence. Give to It now the courtesy and honor of using that Life to widen the borders of the Kingdom! The Use of Speech How much of that Life has passed through your lips in dissipation, in gossip, in unkindness has done harm to others? The word, the use of speech was given to each self-conscious being to create a Cup, to invoke Elemental Life to fill it with feeling and to manifest a thing of beauty that has reason to exist forever! The power of speech, the lips themselves, are only to create THAT which is in accord with the harmony and beauty of life, and many a man that is dumb today, suffers for the prolific use of life through care less and unkind words! How many words you speak each day would you care to see condensed in your aura so that every man that looked upon you could gaze upon them? How many words that you speak would you wish to have immortalized as a part of the heritage of your life with your name written across it? Yet the psychic and astral realm is filled with forms created by such words! 50 DIVINE DIRECTIVES The tongue used as the lash, the tongue used as the instrument of self-righteous indignation; the tongue used to plant cores of poison that grow a harvest in another consciousness and mind that would be totally unaware of such imperfec- · tion---did not the contributing factor of the en ergies of your own lips and tongue choose to conduct what you felt into the world of another? Speech, the use of the energy Of life in the creation of form, will only be understood when the Law allows Us to materialize before you, wurds which slip so carelessly from your lips! Every word that a Master speaks, every word that passes from Their lips becomes an Angelic Being, ensouled immediately by conscious life in winged form, adding to the great legions of Angels and elementals, clothed in garments of Light, moving everywhere through the Universe. Can as much be said of man! I am the Heart of the Silence, and you who enjoy the blending of your energies in magnificent decrees, -- will see manifestations when you precede your application by entering the Throne Room of your own being, standing before the Presence of your living God, becoming one with It, then in the center of that Being, using the breath of life charged with the consciousness of the God-self and directing those energies in that balance -- manifestations will occur! You have your extremes, those lifestreams who enjoy the peace of the Silence and the comfort of drawing the power and activities of the Causal Body but who do not remember the rhythm of life - that which you receive must be given because it DIVINE DIRECTIVES is only in the rhythm of the drawing, the assim ilation and the expansion of the energies, that the spirit grows. Then you have the extremes of the beloved lifestreams whose energies and vital fire are interested primarily in giving, and who rush with all the powers that they have gathered in the inner bodies, into the application, forgetting first the stillness and the receiving! It is to draw these two extremes together that We come - that you may learn that even the Master, even Myself as planetary Silent Watcher, first anchor in the Presence of God and draw the energy, then expana it in service? Those who have drawn knowledge all through the ages, the great priesthood and individuals whose mental bodies have become a magnet and have drawn mighty momentums of knowledge and then through greed contracted that knowledge and held it within themselves, holding the peoples t.hrouqh fear and superstition, those have suffered be cause they have not manifested the rhythm of Life! Knowledge received and NOT USED had better never been invoked and drawn into the conscious ness! Those who have drawn healing powers through the ages, who have become master of the power of the Sacred Fire, and who have commercialized those healing powers for the sustaining of self and not expanded them freely as the gift of Life, they have not learned the mastery of that rhythm! Those whose energies through the ages have been engaged in drawing substance, creating form, accumulating great wealth and who hold that with in themselves for the blessing and satisfaction 52 DIVINE DIRECTIVES of self, know not the rhythm of giving, and some time, somewhere must meet that balance! You have used the magnetic power of Life, Itself and have invoked faith, knowledge, power or substance and Life has been given to you qual ified according to that upon which your attention rested, in order to do one thing only - expand the borders of the Kingdom! Those of you who in your Causal Body have these mighty storehouses that await externaliz ation through your calm feeling world, those of you shall render an accounting if the energies of your world are not stilled enough that you may conduct them now, for it is the hour of crisis; it is the hour when mankind must have the assistance of conscious conductors, and YOU have been chosen to be those conductors! Why do I live? Only that you might have being in My Causal Body; only that all of elemental rife, human life and Angelic life might have a ladder of evolution through the Seven Spheres. When you live for like reason, you will know Peace! Evolution of a Silent Watcher Briefly, I would like to say that the evolu tion which ultimately results in opportunity to become a Silent Watcher, starts with the tiny elemental who is trained in the Nature Kingdom under the direction of the Beloved Mary, Holy Mother of Beloved Jesus. In these magnificent Kingdoms tiny elementals are trained to embody a form under the supervision of Builders of Form. DIVINE DIRECTIVES They gather together and the Builder of Form creates out of His Own Light Body a beautiful flower or some design which is the lesson of the day. All the little elementals whose nature it ls (iike your own etheric bodies) to mirror that which they look upon, immediately take on the form of the flower. This is simple, but when the Builder of Form has transferred the form of the flower to the elementals, He relin quishes the form and assumes His own form as Teacher. Then the elemental is required to concentrate upon hoJ.ding the pattern which is the lesson of the day. Many of them as soon as the Builderof Form returns into His magnificent robes, imme diately turn into little Builders of Form them selves and mirror instantly any change in the Teacher. They are patiently trained and this goes on age after age until they are able to retain the form which the Builder of Form gives them in dependently, and they stay an apple blossom or a lovely peach, or whatever it may be, for the duration of the class. When they become such masters, tiny little beings mind you, they are ready to go forth and try to become part of Amaryllis' great court and bring beauty into the world of form. This is how the Silent Wat cher's training begins. Then they come and create in some beautiful garden under a Nature Deva a rose, pansy, a beau tiful lily. They graduate up the ladder of evolu tion and become, perhaps, a Nature Deva of a garden. Then they are assigned, perhaps, to a Silent Watcher of a great hospital, drawing healing currents into themselves and projecting them down 54 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES in the radiation which is the blessing to the people. They graduate into greater service and become Devas like the Beloved Columbia and those Beings Who watch over an entire nation. They may become great racial Devas watching over the beautiful races evolving, all holding the power of concen tration, going up the ladder, holding the divine pattern of the highest for their nation, their race or country. From among all of these one is chosen to work with the Beloved Maha Chohan and learn to draw those magnificent currents which govern all nature and They come .to a point where They may apply for positions as the Elohim, the great Builders of Form of planets; and from the Elohim, the Silent Watchers are chosen. It is a long time since I embodied a flower and yet I remember it well. I remember those early days when it was such a temptation to flit from thought form to thought form, and I said: "Perhaps I may help"! And that is why I am here, for We are all servants, servants of the Law, and servants of all your Life! I give to you My Peace, My Love and I hold for you the Immaculate Concept, your own Divine God Image. I have not relinguished that for one instant, for if I had relinquished for an instant the image and trust of your God Design, given to Me by the Beloved Helios and Vesta, so would you cease to be in this particular universe! Think how long I have held for you the pattern which I ask you now, to hold for yourselves and each other! by Beloved Mother Mary Tracing the course of the electrons from the Heart of the Central Sun, one sees that they pass through a series of Celestial Beings in graded order, each Group endowing these electrons with the conscious Power and Radiation of His or Her particular expression of activity. Then passing the electrons which are the Gift of God downward to the Sphere of activity beneath, each Group becomes a Conductor to the Group below of the Essence of Life; each enjoying that same Electronic Essence and rejoicing in the Glory of the Life Principle. It is in this manner that the Great Central Sun expands in ever-widening waves the Gift of Its Life, and from level to level this substance travels in orderly sequence until it reaches the Earthplane, there to be received into the bodies of mankind. By the time this substance has been lowered in vibratory action through passing through the bodies of the Great Beings, Whose duties it is to be Conductors of God" s Essence, it is then the Principle of Life for mankind to render a similar service in the outpouring of Life's Essence of Divinity in the Earth Sphere. Let us take the visualization --- a Stream of Electrons enter the Heart of the Solar Deity from the Great Central Sun beyond, the Solar Deity acknowledging Life, blesses that Life with His Own Consciousness and increases it through the power of creation, and that radiation goirg forth from Him, enters the Heart of the Mighty Elohim and Celestial Gods that stand around the Throne of the Sun. 56 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES These Great God Beings reJoice in that Light and Life, and to It They add Their Consciousness, Their Gifts and Radiation. They amplify it by the Power of Creation, and in a rhythmic pulsa tion downward into the Consciousness of the Ascended Host. These Cosmic Beings accept that glorious Life which has been enriched in the passing into and through the bodies of the Celestial Lords to which They add Their Consciousness and Qualities, and They expand It in rhythmic pulsation down ward into the Consciousness of the Ascended Host. and They in turn enrich It by Their particular Gift to the Universe. Then under the direction of the Solar Hierarchy It is released into.the the humanity of Earth and the other Planets of Our Chain. During this process the One Life has increased in quality but has been, through mercy, slowed down in vibratory action so that the physical bodies of the people of Earth can hold it, and for them it may be a sustaining power to animate their human forms, and allows them to fulfill God's Plan. send the Life Principle which came, you will re member, from the Heart of the Sun into the phys ical bodies of mankind, the Divine Plan is for this Essence to again be qualified and also charged with Divinity and sent forth into the Elemental Kingdom by man. When this is done, the first wave from God's Heart, reaching the lowest vibratory action in His System, begins Its ascent again in the same order into the Heart of the Father, returning in such added glory and such expanded Radiation that the Sun· God's Causal Bodies are greatly extended, and the Cosmic Anthem of Creation be comes a pulsation of prayer and thanksgiving in the Universe. You will understand then why the present mis use of God Energy by the peoples of Earth is the only false note in this activity of Creation, and it is for this Reason that the Beloved Saint. Germain has brought forth the understanding of the use of energy and vibration, that mankind may be trained to their true part in enriching the Solar System by their receiving and expand ing that God Gift that the Solar Logii would tremble to misuse. ***************** ***************** I AM YOUR MOTHER - and I speak to you with a Mother's love, just as I spoke to Jesus. I say to each and every one of you: YOU are a magnif icent Being of Lightt Your Holy Christ Self is expanding Its beauty and perfection through you and is expanding the perfume of Its Presence into the atmosphere about you; one of the melodies of the Music of the Spheres is flooding your world with the harmony of your own individual key-note of expression. All of this made possible for you and personally belonging to you as your Divine birthright through the gift of life which flows to you through your own individualized God-Presence "I AM" 58 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES THE VIRTUE OF HGPE by Beloved Lady Hope Beloved Flames from God's Heart, great is My privilege to bring the Virtue of Hope to this dear Earth. Since I have a developed momentum of Hope, I should like to discourse upon that Quality for a moment! Hope contains within itself the buoy ant feeling of the Fourth Ray upon which I serve. You have often seen a little child break a toy - for instance a little girl pulling the arm off a doll and the dejected feeling that encompassed the little one; but when the Mother noticing the plight of the child puts her arms about her and assures her that her doll can be mended, brightness comes to the child's face. The hap piness which is manifest when she is told that the doll will be "made new" is an example in a very small way of what Hope and Trust can mean. Hope and Trust go hand in hand. One must have Trust otherwise there would not be Hope! Trust goes hand in hand with Faith. For anything to manifest, one must have Love, Wisdom, or the discernment to have Faith in the accomplishment, through Love, brings us to the Three-fold Activity of Life. Another simple illustration ••• when a son or daughter goes on a journey for the first time unaccompanied by either of the parents, there usually is concern in their hearts until their offspring has safely reached his destination, and through Love and Faith they await word of his safe arrival. To witness the Hope for this accom plishment through Faith is a beautiful sight, and the Love engendered is a glorious radiation. Also when Hope is given to a despondent in dividual the vibratory action is that one is raised. While most of the people on this Planet do ~ot know of My Reality as a Being, I assure you that whenever or wherever there is a requirement for Hope, there I am, I am within every heart and all that is required for added assistance from My Being is to consciously invoke that aid! Every pulsation from My Being anticipates the moment when someone will express the desire for the Virtue of which I have a goodly momentum, and I can always draw forth more Hope from the Supreme Source, for the more a Virtue is dis pensed, the more freely does that Essence flow into the being of the sender. God's Love and Light is ever-expanding and I eagerly anticipate the day when the chelas will realize that all the riches of the Blessings from the Cosmic Fount are his, once he employs the balanced activity of Love, Wisdom and Power. How many times have We directed your attention to the Nature Kingdom and the resurgence in the Springtime of the Divine Plan which is within the seed, bulb or tree! There is always an intensification of the vibratory action of Hope in the Spring, and all the Kingdoms feel the expectancy of the activity of the Resurrection Flame. Truly the Easter Season is the time of Cosmic Expectancy! Every activity of the Cosmos is precise and when called into action through Love manifests to the degree of Faith within the heart of the one drawing forth the manifestation. There are 60 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES no half-way measures, as you realize that when you give forth a pound of energy in application! to use that illustration, there is no way to receive half a pound for a pound so invested! Balance is the order of Heaven and it is only in the world of form where the entity of greed enters the picture. Beloved of the Light, enter into the con sciousness of Perfection daily, until your lower vehicles so enjoy this uplifting and stimulating existence you will never descend into the lower vibratory action of the human, or lower, self! Come into the embrace of My Love, so that I may make you consciously aware of the glorious feeling which is the natural activity of the Radiation of the Virtue of Hope. There is no human being that does not have the Divine Plan and Pattern within him and it was written that man was made in the Image and very likeness of God -- that Image, or likeness has been shrouded around by personalities until so few have come to flower. Were everyone of the elements to be as re calcitrant as mankind who have used this Earth there would be no Spring, no violet, no crocus, no lily, no flowering shrub. Elemental life, inferior to that of humankind, has expected the resurrection power and created the rhythm of Spring, Summer, Harvest and Rest. What nature has done, what Jesus did, what a few very excep tional lifestreams before Jesus and after Him have done, is the destiny of all this race and those yet to be born! THE BROTHERHOOD AT LUXOR by Beloved Serapis Bey God, the Infinite, Immortal Flame of Eternal Life and Expression has given us being •••• you, beloved chelas, the Spiritual Brotherhood and all life. To what purpose? To evolve out of pEimal life some great blessing that shall be eternally a part of the benefaction to the Universe. The Brotherhood at Luxor have chosen the qual ification of primal life as an ascending pressure of energy that stimulates the soul toward self conscious endeavor to become again the HOly Christ in action. The consciously qualified energies of Hope, Resurrection and Faith, directed into heavy souls lifts those souls (with their append ages) into the higher atmospheres wherein a closer contact with the ALL-PRESENCE is possible. For ages, We, the Brotherhood at Luxor, have been engaged in the 'manufacture' of such spirit ual elixirs - merely qualified life - which are then consciously projected into the heavy souls of men with the mathematical scientific result of raising the energies within the weighted souls. To stir a soul from the lethargy of its rest less wanderings along the paths of human ex perience requires a POWERFUL, CONSCIOUS, PROJEC TION OF QUALIFIED ENERGY, which is STRONGER than the mass of energies which the soul itself has accumulated. To this end, the Brotherhood at Luxor work and serve. The souls of men, as you all know, hold with in themselves a beautiful Spark of Divinity. This 62 DIVINE DIRECTIVES Spark has been so closed in by the gradual but persistent accumulation of the substance of im purity that it no longer is felt, known or in vited to activate the self. Of course, I refer to the mass of mankind, and not the chelas and enlightened ones. However, sooner or later, this Spark begins to stir. Then the Silent Watch ers of men's souls invite Us to become the 'bellows• and through the Activities of Luxor, We literally breathe hope, enthusiasm, interest, faith, love and encouragement upon that ?Park until It, in Itself, begins to come out of Its period of spiritual hibernation! Today, We are particularly engaged upon the task of accelerating the awakening of the Spark in the billions of souls upon this Planet because of the Cosmic Moment. Thus many, who ordinarily would not waken for centuries, must of necessity be awakened QUICKLY. The Spirit of Hope truly must be invoked by those Brothers and Sisters OUTSIDE the Retreats to assist in this resucita tion of the Spiritual Selves of the race! We ask the sincere assistance of all who love Us to this end! And now to the awakened lifestream, the chela, I bring to you • • • • My love, My hope, My blessings. As your Spiritual Self is going through this awakening, remember RIGHT within YOUR PHYSICAL HEART - is the God Power Almighty Its healing power, Its precipitating power, Its peace commanding power. The task of making the outer self A.CCEPT the "I AM" PRESENCE WITHIN RIGHT NOW is the discipline of the chela. Look not afar for the miracle Working Presence - It is within you! I breathe upon that Presence the full Power DIVINE DIRECTIVES and Momentum of Luxor! Through you, and others deeply interested in mankind's resurrection, We look for polarized centers of OURSELVES through which to pour Our Momentum and make every home, sanctuary, activity a Foc~s of Luxor on this still groaning and weary Planet also experiencing Its emergence into All-Light! Experiment, beloved ones, with the activity of Resurrection! Use it now for all imperfect appearances, which are abundant, and raise them consciously into harmony, health, purity, peace, and so on. When individuals stop thinking of the change in the quality of energy as 'miraculous' and accept the truth that the change in the qual ity of energy is a scientific law, they will lose the fear of appearances, knowing that merely a directed ray of qualified energy can transmute any shadow into Light. We, at Luxoz , are so grateful that the Cosmic Law permitted Our Retreat to be honored at this time, because HOPE, a Beautiful Goddess.as a Being of Transmutation must be presented to the chelas and Her presence invoked and utilized. Our experience of such transmutation should give confidence to the outer self that no thing need remain in shadow when the qualified energies of HOPE can quicken the vibratory action of such shadows and make the core and radiation one of Light! We are indeed grateful that the chelas are coming to such a deep understanding of the necessity of HOLDING THE ENERGY in the actual building of the Permanent Focus on Long Island in a constant state of Harmony, for this is essential to build an atmosphere which is a 64 DIVINE DIRECTIVES natural conductor of Our Gifts and a natural in vitation to Our Presence among you. Blessed and beloved chelas you have gone far, in overcoming many of the etheric tendencies which have been builded into your nature through centuries of battle with shadows. This makes it much easier to tie into the energies of your soul and inner bodies the 'pure Flaming Presence of the All-Power of God! Remember, always, only the individual himself, through discord, short circuits himself tempora rily from pure radiation which feeds the Indivi dual God Flame, and the Flame within, when not so disconnected, grows and waxes strong. The Flame, in Its ascendancy is the TRE.E OF LIFE, and the natural fruit of that tree is abundance of every good and perfect thing! The Brotherhood of Luxor give you Their bless ing, for your faith, constancy and spiritual unity, as We fulfill the reason for Our being- the Resurrection and Ascension of all this evolu tion -- human, elemental and imprisoned Angelic life. "I AM" Yours in LIFE ABUNDANT , ••• , • , HAVE REVERENCE FOR LIFE - - - by Beloved Lanto Beloved ones, I bow in reverence to your Light; that reverence which I have developed through long ages in recognizing the power within the Immortal Flame that is in every Individualized Intelligence, no matter how low the soul may DIVINE DIRECTIVES seemingly have degraded. Within that Light Principle is every God-Power in the Universe be cause you cannot separate Life from God; for God and Light and Life are One! We, Who are in the God-free estate, know that the same Life is within the beating heart of everyone belonging to this evolution, and that Life is not only the redemptive process but the expanding of the Precipitating Power of Perfec tion into this world of form. Accept the joy of having a beating heart within which is a current of energy which is the Life given to you of God, the very same Life that Jesus used by which He overcame death itself, by which He transfigured the human form, and by which He performed every so-called miracle. Jesus stands yet today the great example of the proper use of Life. There has come out of the Great Silence a Being Who will be of great benefit to you individ ually if you will call to Him. Order is Heaven's first law, and He is the God of Divine Order. He will assist you to bring Divine Order into your personal affairs, into your emotional re actions, into your mental world, your physical world and surroundings. We know Him in Our Realm as the great Prince PRINCIPA, the God of Divine Order. This Great Being has come forth for the first time since the laggards came and disorder began to manifest. He is willing to give you the assistance of His Ray. Your meas ure of your own world will tell you quickly how much or how little you need Him! Before going forth into any project, whether it is in your home, business, affairs, or for your group, if you will invoke the Great God 66 DIVINE DIRECTIVES Principa before you so much as raise a hand, you will find everything in that day, everything in that project, everything in that activity will move along smoothly and in Divine Order and each portion of your pattern and plan will mesh per fectly with the others. Let the Law and Lord of Divine Order surge into, through, and around you, and into whatever activity you are working upon. Call to Him twenty-four hours before that project is to begin and see how real and tangible such an One can be. In the Higher Realms, everything follows Divine Order. You are entering into the seventh Age. and the seventh Ray is Ordered Service; ceremony in which Divine Order is acknowledged. You might be surprised if a lot of thought forms that have cluttered up your mind were re moved by this God of Divine Order, and how much easier it would be for you to concentrate; and how many of the emotions that have filled your world which were not of God intent were removed in Divine Order and your Holy Christ Flame permitted to expand through you. Experiment, dear ones, and enjoy the gift of this Great Being! DIVINE DIRECTIVES THE MERCY FLAME ••••• Beloved expressions of the Sacred Lotus of Divinity, come into the living Light of the Sa cred Flame of Mercy which is within My Heart and permit Me to saturate your beings with the Holy Essence of Love and Compassion! I now invite you to enter deeply into My Con sciousness as I endeavor to remove all thoughts of the outer self. Visualize yourselves in a tranquil lake of deep Violet Fire, and let your consciousness expand and become flowers in this Lake of Mercy's Love, whose radiation is a glo rious Agua Light. While bathing in that efful gent Light, I will tell you why the radiation is aqua Lr, hue. Through the centuries I have used this color. That shade is composed of the holy and protective of Truth. It is an exquisite blending of colors, and My garments in Temple service are often in this color. Through that radiation going forth from the Temples of Mercy, it has become a very widely accepted color in My Homeland - Beloved China! When you think of or use the Flame of Mercy, see the Violet Fire in a deep shade of Purple, with a radiation of Aqua, and you will find it most efficacious, as well as a soothing radia tion for you personally and, through you, it will assist all Life. Dear children of the Light, like our Bless ed Saint Germain, I do love the designation of 'Friend'. Please feel that I am your friend and you are Mine. Serving together we can re lease tremendous currents of Mercy's Flame in the redemption of this Earth. Bear in mind al ways that there is no other Power than God, im perfect appearances have no power - they are only the outpicturing of the human consciousness! How many times I have come to the chelas, offering My Gift of Mercy, and today I plead with you to open your hearts and feeling worlds to the inflow of the Sacred Essence of Mercy and 68 DIVINE DIRECTIVES Compassion. I particularly direct your atten tion to this Flame at this hour because there are so many chelas in this and other dedicated activities whose consciousness could expand much more rapidly if they would accept and use this Flame of Compassion to wipe away certain ideas or concepts which are deeply imbedded within their etheric garments which prevent them from changing their ideas about their fellow travel ers on the Path. Be pliable, My lovely ones -- show Mercy to others when their way of thinking does not agree with yours. No verbal expression is necessary. Just step into the Mercy Flame and ask your Holy Christ Self to enlighten you. There are legions of the Brothers and Sisters of Mercy Who await your Call for assistance. We have many Foci of Light in China, and I trust you will take advantage of Our offer to assist you. Be Friends of Mercy in action -- and you can be sure that We will give you the Love and assistance of Our Beings. It is almost inconceivable, but some chelas entertain the thought that it is no longer ne cessary to ask for assistance from their Brothers Hierarchy and think they should disregard Them and go directly to their own "I AM" Presence! I certainly have no intention of offending any one should this apply to you individually. How ever, when the consciousness is sufficiently advanced upon the Ladder of Evolution and ha8 entered into the Cosmic Consciousness - that one is in the Heart of the "I AM" Presence - and in this Cosmic Consciousness they cannot be sepa rated from any of the Perfected Beings. DIVINE DIRECTIVES You have been counselled through the years to invoke the "I AM" Presence at all times - and this is most important - but the consciousness of most of the chelas is like a small Chalice of Light holding God " s Gi,fts, and when there is a much greater momentum of the Light of the cos mos to be tapped, it is certainly not the part of wisdom to by-pass this Reservoir. Through sence first and then to ask the assistance of the Cosmic and Ascended Host - individually or collectively - a much greater release of energy can be given. Have We not foresworn Nirvana in order to help you and all the evolutions of this Planet? I humbly counsel all of the chelas to come into the All-encompassing Consciousness of the Father-Mother God, and learn the Truth about which I speak. Beware of the insidious activi ty of Spiritual pride! Remember Our Beloved Master Jesus said, "Come unto Me all who are heavily laden and I shall give you rest!" He meant to come to the Christ, which He was, and He would bathe all in the Light of Cod " s Love. As is so oft repeated, Truth never changes, but that your understanding thereof expands according to your acceptance, and through entering into the Heart of the Cos mic Consciousness where all Perfection is at tainable for you; obtainable for you to dispense to your fellow traveler! Please, dear ones, let Me walk the Earth through you, letting the Flame of Mercy free mankind of all imperfection. study and apply the foregoing, and in your acceptance you will be at Peace with all Life! How privileged We are to be at Shamballa in 70 DIVINE DIRECTIVES the glorious Radiation of the Beloved Gautama and the assembled Cosmic and Ascended Beings. Many Cosmic Councils are taking place prepara tory to going to the Tetons for the Half-yearly Council. Tremendous plans must be set into mo tion to restore this Earth - and quickly! When one considers the unrest upon this Plan et, surely he realizes to a degree the magni tude of the service which must be given to ready the Earth for the Cosmic Change! All of the chelas should set aside all negative opinions about themselves and others, and plunge deeply into the Service of the Hour - the redemption of the Earth and all Her evolutions! This has been said year after year - as it was said on Atlantis - but the time is upon us NOW when de lay cannot be tolerated in the consciousness of the 'chosen of the Lord', the privileged chelas who represent the Spiritual Hierarchy on this plane. Remember always - that Mercy is Love; Mercy is Compassion; Mercy is Charity; Mercy is Grace; Mercy is Understanding; and Mercy is Tolerance; myriad are the expressions of the Mercy of God's Love. Will you kindly now turn your attention to the Angels of Mercy Whq are in this Sanctuary, and Who have been filling your beings with the Healing Unction of the Mercy Flame, as They now join the Legions of Mercy in the atmosphere over Long Island to traverse the Planet with the Elixir of Mercy. I would appreciate it if you would now sing 'Healing Angels' • Thank you very much, my lovely ones, and be assured that daily on bended knee, I go into the Father's Heart, the Fount of all Good, and invoke Mercy for you DIVINE DIRECTIVES nd for all Life. From the Cosmic Fount of Mercy, please ac cept the Benediction of God's Love for you. Gratefully and humbly - your Sister in the Light. THE INTELLIGENT CONSCIOUSNES OF THE VIOLET FIRE ••.••• by Beloved Saint Germain If the students in their earnest desire to receive forgiveness and to experience the full in wiping out their own mistakes and that of all mankind, would ask to FEEL the Intelligent Con sciousness of the Violet Fire Itself, they would greatly accelerate the power of Divine Alchemy in their worlds and affairs. The Intelligence within the Violet Transmuting Fire is known as Beloved Holy Amethyst. Her first activity, when called into action, is to express gratitude for the opportunity of serving life to set it free. The individual whose consciousness literally leaps forth at the opportunity to forgive some transgression of the law, and particularly some injustice toward self, is ONE with the Nature and Feeling of this Flame of Mercy which so joyously responds to the invitation to transmute mankind's mistakes whenever called into action. your friends by understanding emotional, physical, and Return, then, the authority your thoughts, feelings, and own Christ.

The Maha Chohan DIVINE DIRECTIVES HINTS FOR SELF -UNFOLDMENT By Beloved Holy AEolus Now is the Time to Balance your Debt to Life Each man is a heart center of creative energy - his world is the result of his choice of cre ation, BUT, in the eternal scheme of things all men must redeem every ounce of energy they have drawn from the Universal Storehouse and sent forth into the atmosphere of Earth "under their name". NOW is the time in the mercv of the Violet Flame to quickly balance your -individual debt to the Life you have used so lavishly. Seek your Central Point There is a central point of each one's being which is the heart center of that lifestream. In this central point of poise is peace, mastery, dignity, happiness, enthusiasm and love of the Light. Every man, woman and child who lives off center, with their consciousness focused in any of the lower bodies, mental, emotional, etheric or physical will find themselves from time to time in distress, BUT, as one consciously make one's way through the maze of human thought and feeling back to the Divine Identity of the Sacred Fire in the heart, one learns how to find the Open Door to complete release and relief from the outer appearance. How to throw off your shackles of Bondage Freedom, like Light, is an abstract quantity Focus of Light. Your One-pointedness _ for assimilation. their use assures Freedom, DIVINE DIRECTIVES flowing from the Heart of God in such rapid succession that there is no outer measure which could give you an idea of their speed. These electrons are charged with the Divine imprint of your individuality and are constantly flowing around the Immortal Victorious Three fold Flame in your heart, which is your indivi dual Identity. These electrons are differentiated from the universal light substance in that they form a precipitated Ray which you are and will remain in the universe. You are not a body, nor a form, nor an accre tion of intellectual knowledge, You are an electronic Stream of Energy from God's Own Heart and the radiation from the energy in thought and feeling and spoken word - forms what is known as your •personality•. All of that radiation which is not an expres sion of harmony, peace, beauty and perfection and the self-lessness of Love is impure radia tion and a distortion of the God Identity of you, The purpose ot acquainting mankind with the is to purify the radiation of each lifestream, to harmonize the outflow of energy and to qualify that radiation with the manifestation and ex pression of Godliness alone. When an individual becomes the complete mas ter of every electron going forth from his lifestream and that radiation is ONLY expressing Perfection, he is then an Adept as Jesus was and is. This is w-hy there is no substitute 78 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES for application. Application is simply the transmutati0n of the energy rate of the self. If you will invoke your Holy Christ Self daily upon rising and CHARGE your intellect, your feeling ¥Orld and your etheric body and the brain cells themselves with the full power of the Divine Plan fulfilled for that day, you will avoid any mistakes that may arise by reason of the misinterpretation by the outer vehicles. MAKES A MISTAKE --- is a decree which would be of tremendous assistance to you. Sometimes the Divine promptings interpreted by one of the lower vehicles becomes slightly distorted, and if a mistake ensues, the student or chela is liable to become discouraged and doubt the veracity of all other promptings. Your Holy Christ Self is a real Being who can sit and converse with you and if you will allow It to give you counsel and guidance daily, and if you will offer It full authority over your lifestream, you will find no strain to do the perfect thing in the perfect way, at the perfect time. THE CONTROL OF THE FOUR LOWER BOlliES .. by Beloved Lord Divnio Once each year, the Beloved Lord Divino cel ebrates the presentation of the Spiritual Law as given by His Guru, Lord Gautama, by reciting to the receptive chelas. the tenets of the Lord Buddha's Principle of Living -- The Middle Way. This ceremony takes place in July of each year, and is known as the Asala Festival. We present for your individual and collective ceremonies excerpts of more recent comments by the Beloved Lord Divino which will intensify His outpouring at the Asala Festival. Participate! Thomas Printz J As the Beloved Saint Germain has recently explained on various occasions, the four lower bodies, physical, etheric, mental and emotional, are closely inter-related, one with the other, just as climbers who are maki.nq a steep ascent upon a glacier, are tied together for safety's sake. Each one depends upon the other's sure footing; upon the capacity and training of the other, in order to reach the apex of the moun tain. The slip of the foot of any one, caused by hysteria, emotional unbalance or, perhaps, by some 'accident• to the physical body, is apt to plummet the entire group into a crevasse and obliterate them, temporarily, at least, from the physical appearance world. It is exactly the same thing with your inner bodies! If, through habit, your feelings (emotional body) have been allowed to explode at will and to throw out resentment and rebellion with lit tle or no attempt on your part to control them, that emotional body immediately pulls down with it the other three vehicles into the slower vi brations of the astral realm. Then you have a headache and mental fog; you have another scar on the etheric body, and you usually have some physical repercussion in the flesh form. DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES If the mental body is allowed to dwell upon thoughts of impurity, obscenity or the imper fections of other lifestreams - whether it is so-called fact or fancy, it eventually involves the emotional body. That body then comes over to see what is going on (so to speak) and a new 'party' is started. Thus the entire group again is plummeted into the psychic and astral realm. If the etheric body is allowed continually to revert to the injustices of the past - in this life alone most everyone has suffered, at least what they have considered injustice, it revivifies those distresses again, many times making them recur in your present experience. You know, the etheric body is a great one to •watch' for such opportunities to express itself while you are on 'vacation' or when you are not actually busy doing something else at the moment. That is when the etheric body becomes active and the stirring energies within it say: "Do you re member thus and so?" Finally, the mind and the feelings get into it, and you have the •slough' of lowered vibrations again. Then there is only one thing to do, and this same procedure has been used century after century by all sincere lifestreams who wish to become Master of their worlds - that is, TO CHANGE THE. VIBRATORY ACTION of those bodies by raising them (as the speed of the airplane propeller raises the plane into the air) by increasing the vibrations of those bodies to the point where harmony, purity, hap piness, peace and general well-being exist! GOD CONTROL IMPERATIVE FOR ALL! This is impersonal Law! lt has nothing to do with any particular individual or any spe cial lifestream upon the planet. It is just Law! ) ) While you allow the vibrations of any one of your bodies to become discordant, you immediate ly sink into the 'slough' of the mass destruc tive thoughts and feelings of the race. You not only have to generate (through your application in the use of the Violet Fire and whatever other applications of which you know) enough •steam' to get up and out of that rut again, but, while you are down there, you have opened your worlds to the destructive energies which form that mass strata and which then flow into and become a part of your world. Beloved ones, this is the Law of the Re treats! It is the Law and the Science of Mastery, which is taught by every Being Who has attained the right to be called "Guru" (Master), and Who accepts initiates and chelas for development. Mankind and chelas, too, are always looking for an easy way out of their difficulties; for a vicarious atonement; for someone else to pay their debt; someone else to set them free! I assure you there is no one else but your own consciousness who can eventually control the energy which has been entrusted to you from God. NO ONE but yourself can control that energy for you! True, the Masters, Angels, Cherubim and Seraphim can and do give you assistance in quiet ing the whirls of destructively qualified energy which you have already set up, and They pour oil on the troubled waters far more often than that of which you have a~y concept in your out- er minds. True, the Master Jesus, the Beloved Prince of Peace, when invoked by a soul in turmoil and in trouble, does send forth His radiation in answer to their calls, and sometimes that one 82 DIVINE DIRECTIVES is sensitive enough to accept His peace. How ever - this is but temporary! Until the indi vidual himself arises in the dignity of his own Godhood and realizes that he, himself, chose to take and use Life from the heart of the God of the Universe, he cannot be self-master over that Life! The world around him and his own inner bodies are a record of what he has done with such Life. SILENCE - SO IMPORTANT! When such an one so chooses to master his energies in dignity, poise and, preferably, in silence, he can succeed, if he will. You know, there is not too much kindness in this world of form. If you tell others of that which you en deavor to do before it is successfully achieved, you dissipate your energies which might be used to accomplish your purpose. Should you fail in your achievement, there will be many who will laugh at you. In the silence and dignity of your own Christ Flame, determine that these Vehi cles which you use are going to serve the pur pose for which they were created, to expand the Virtues of God. You may choose to develop and radiate any one or more of a number of God Vir tues which this world so much requires at this time. One could spend almost an entire evening enumerating the Virtues this crying planet Earth needs; for one thing - PEACE - of a certainty! Will you allow your emotional world to be a con duit from your Presence and the Ascended Masters' Realm to carry an uninterrupted PEACE into the souls of men which are torn with pain and agony; nations filled with unrest; an Elemental King dom despoiled and tortured by the ignorance, disinterest, unbelief and impurities generated by mankind; or must your emotional body be the DIVINE DIRECTIVE.S plaything for any unkind word or displeasure of another which sends it immediat.ely into distress? WHO OWNS YOUR WORLD Does your emotional body belong to God or does it belong to the transients you meet upon Life's way who take your world away from the authority of your Presence and steal your peace, God9s peace, from you? If this is so, for that moment at least, that discord short circuits your energies through which the Godhead and all the God-free Beings could pour peace into your worlds - then out through your atmosphere into the worlds of others. Does your mental body belong to G~d? is it alert to the reception of the Divine Directions of your "I AM" Presence, or is it busy accumu lating the gossip which is heard over the radio, read from the printed page, or spoken through the kindly(?) lips of your friends and associ ates? Is your mental body also the plaything for the transients you meet on Life9s way? Does your etheric body belong to God? Is it the powerhouse it was intended to be in the beginning •••••• in which there is recorded every magnificent experience you had with God 9before the world was•, from the first time your Immor tal Three-fold Flame externalized from the Fath er when first you felt being and said "I AM"; when you first looked upon the faces of your God-parents of the System to which you belong; Who created you; when you saw the shining light of the Archangels and there were no scales be fore your eyes; when you heard the Music of the Spheres just naturally, and when you saw the beautiful Temples of Light in the Inner Realms, 84 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES is that the content of your etheric body? Is that what surges up during your periods of re laxation and makes you remember God's Perfection, or is your etheric body just a Pandora's box, containing the records of all the petty griev ances and mistakes of others? Does your physical body belong to God? Is it vital and alert as it should be, ready to be about the Masters9 business? TAKE DAILY PERSONAL INVENTORY Today I ask you to take an inventory of your selves. You are chelas now who must move forward under your own steam. These vehicles (bodies) which are yours to control, you must keep in the use of God IF YOU ARE WHAT YOU PROFESS! You cannot serve two Masters! You are serving God when your bodies are conductors for His Grace; you are serving Mammon when your bodies are re acting to the flash-tides of human emotions! Think it through, beloved ones! You say: "all I am or have or ever hope to be or have is Thine". That is a BIG STATEMENT! Are you con firming it in your daily living? My lovely ones, think of the statements you make and have been making for a number of years now. Think upon them deeply, for they will af fect the karma which you draw upon yourselves. It is up to you to create the glory of your Causal Body through your four lower bodies and make the Holy Spirit of God your personal aura, instead of its being a flashing and crashing of the discords of your various vehicles which are offbeat. When they are so, they are creating the dissonance which is very evident to others, and which causes your own personal distresses. It is time NOW that you bring your four lower bodies - physical, etheric, mental and emotion al - into alignment - ALL OF THEM - and then to raise and consecrate them all to God and to His service! PERFECTION OF THE PHYfilCAL GARMENT by Beloved Holy AEolus The consciousness of the chela and all men unascended is to place the world and all human beings who form the inhabitants of the Planet Earth outside himself. The Consciousness of God and the Master is to hold all mankind, the na ture kingdom, the Earth and the Universe within himself. When the chela can cross that bridge con sciously and come to a feeling that all people are inside himself, his compassion and under standing will grow and his ability to Love the discrepancies into harmonies will be a thousand fold more intense. When a member of the body is for some rea son incapacitated, the whole body rushes with its strength, its vitality, its blood, its nerve energy, and its particular curative powers are centered in the temporarily disabled instrument, for the body more wisely than man knows that it can function-best when all its members are in complete agreement, harmony and balance. For instance, if one leg is suffering a temporary disability, the entire body suffers thereby, the redistribution of weight, a re-polarization of 86 DIVINE DIRECTIVES organism, and an excessive pressure of service upon the remaining members, which causes dis comfort to the entire vehicle. The body, there fore, in its mighty wisdom, immediately begins to restore and repair the injured member, not only for the benefit of the member but for the greater efficacy of the entire instrument. Man is like a great corporate body, and when individuals are held, which they are in truth, as inside rather than outside, the chela will begin to emulate the wisdom of nature in restor ing and repairing their mechanism, their mind, body, emotions, etc. In meditation and con.+-emplation when you draw your deep breath, feel yvurself expand like a balloon until the tip of your circumference fills the Universe, and that all life lives in you, then begin treating the individual parts and see with what great success harmony can be brought and sustained in small numbers, and far greater in Cosmic Capacity. To say any man has tuberculosis, cancer, in sanity, etc., is to say that the entire human race, as an individual and corporate body, is diseased, and no man is WHOLE while there is one diseased cell in the entire vehicle. Therefore, you will see as the cells rush to rebuild dis eased mechanism, so do the intelligent and un awakened lifestreams serve a Cosmic purpose in healing the body of the world and her people. Your consciousness must not accept the de composing mass, - but MUST ACCEPT that through the reaching into the Goe Life any one cell is and can be vitalized by the all-power of Good and not on the limitation of the hour. DIVINE DIRECTIVES When the minute particles in the blood bring the restorative tissue to the scene of a wound, they do not even know the shape of the cut, or the external appearance of the scar, -they are thoroughly impregnated, in their tiny intelli gences, with the restorative powers contained within their gift, -and they perform that per fectly. The only reason a scar of permanent disfigurement remains is because the outer con sciousness temporarily holds an etheric picture which has moulded the service of the elemental life. When any man becomes Master of himself, and the elemental life begins to serve him conscious ly, - he can restore sca~red tissue, so-called missing limbs and organisms as easily as the Builders of Form, in the first instance, created Perfection in the baby body, consisting of body tissues, members, cells, blood, and every part of the structure that makes up life. I humbly counsel you to study this lesson, and if there is any imperfection manifesting in your physical garment, realize your etheric con sciousness is the culprit, and that the body can be restored to its original Perfection if you choose to let go of that imperfect picture. THE FEELING WORLD •••.• by Beloved Lady Nada We are continually bringing to your attention the importance of maintaining a harmonious feel ing world. I would like to point out a few facts for your consideration, as I note that you are all consciously endeavoring to attain that state 88 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES of being. In a controlled feeling world one can create a Power-house which he can consciously attach to his visualizing faculty, and like a motor attached to a vehicle, precipitate the vis ualized picture into motion. You have learned that the feeling nature is the motivating power behind all thought proc esses and that thoughts are propelled into man ifestation by the pressure of energy within the feeling world. Therefore, the more intensely one can feel the reality of his visualization, the more rapidly does the visualized ideation become manifest. The more Faith, Courage, Con fidence, Intelligence, Purity, Light and vivacity within the feeling world, the more rapid is the conscious precipitation. You have learned that man has been precipita ting through the very faculties of the Godhead from the beginning of so-called time, but the consciously directed manipulation of the proc esses of thought and feeling is mastery. You can see now from what you have read and studied regarding the ability of a Master to create con ditions in a seemingly miraculous manner just how these wonders can become a daily and natural experience in your life plan. The life plan of the average individual is an uncertain series of experiences, resulting from the lack of control of the thought proc esses energized wholly unconsciously by the pressure of the feeling world, and catapulted by the very nature of each individual9s being into expression. The natural activity of every lifestream is to consciously direct his visualizing faculties according to the wisdom of his Higher Sel£ and to cut into the Universal Life Substance the pattern and form which he wishes to express, and then to pass the energy of his feeling world through this distinct and detailed pattern in a calm, effortless, but persistent manner until the inner design is manifested. Consider an artisan making a golden vessel, a vase or cup or any other object, first he makes a mould of a strong substance and then the gold is poured into the mould, thus the perfect ves sel is formed first, and then the gold is re moved. This is done in a methodical, tension less manner. The thought and feeling processes of man can be controlled in exactly the same scientific manner, and the science of precipitation gained through practice will bring manifestations more and more quickly, and more and more perfectly as you gain the ability to visualize and con centrate, the QUALITY of energy in the feeling world is perfected. As you have workmen of various degrees of efficiency with more skilled hands and a more highly developed sense of artistry, so in man kind you have various developments of the mental and emotional nature, and some will find the controlled action of creation more easy of ac complishment than others - for example - some people are natural born singers or musicians, but all can, with the proper adjustment of the inner faculties come to a state of instant pre cipitation and mastery. In sensitive and highly developed people you will find an emotional nature that is quick to 90 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES grasp Truth and quick to respond to external vi brations. While this is a great strength, it is also a great weakness, because the vacuous thought forms in the Universe can only retain their identity by the securing of energy from the feeling nature of some lifestreams which they can cause to respond to their presence through fear, irritation etc. Therefore, the feeling nature, in order to reach greater heights of spiritual attainment must be developed to an extremely quick response to a higher vibration and the necessity of "The Middle Way" is again brought to the foreground. To have a highly sensitive vehicle that can consciously enter the Realm of Divine Causation and yet find no response to externals of a dis cordant nature is perfect balance, and toward this end all must strive. SELF - JUSTIFICATION by Beloved Serapis Bey Will I detect •rumblings' in your conscious ness when you read the heading of this Release of "oh, no, not me!" Beloved ones, the unascended chela does not know when some individual may touch a sensitive spot in his or her feelings and will bristle at the comment or disgruntled remark of another. If this does happen, you will know that the personal self is still an entity desiring just ification. The mind of man is a series of thoughts and feelings, actions and re-actions which comprise a picture of what he thinks he is and his rela tionship to the universe surrounding him. This is the personality, which the individual desires to protect, and the energy of his being is poured constantly into appeasing and cultivating the requirements of this little self. Now that the chela has progressed along the $piritual Path and has conscientiously used the Sacred Fire of Transmutation and Purification. these defensive feelings are of a minor nature but be ever on the alert for the intruder who steps on your toes, so to speak. One who is striving, and advancing, toward the Goal of being The Christ Presence in acti.on can be very suscep tible, and it is the Divine Love which I hold for each of you that prompts Me to counsel you in this regard. The personal self, apart from God, is an in dividual entity with separate tendencies. The momentum of holding the little self in such esteem through the ages has created a substance which has formed a dense or unclear condition in the consciousness, and this must be removed before the Happiness and God Perfection can be brought into being. The vehicles of expression belonging to the Beloved "I AM" Presence which the lifestream inhabits were intended to be conductors of the Goodness of The Creator of all Life and for the expansion of the Gifts of the Fourth Dimension in the physical appearance world. The consciousness of the personal self must be withdrawn from the outer enjoyment back to its Source, which will result in inner peace. 92 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES Spiritual meditation, true art, color and music play an important part in this renouncement but entering the 'inner sanc+um t of The Christ with in will more quickly Loose the hold of the outer which has enjoyed such a long tenure in your worlds. Be assured that the entire Host of Heaven are ready and willing at all times to assist you in this renunciation, when invoked, for every lifestream who has reached the point in its evolution where it desires to return to the Kingdom of Perfection is deserving of added assistance. All consciousness is part of the Whole and while any part of the Universal Consciousness is enmeshed in fulse concepts, the Over-All Pattern of Perfection cannot express. Therefore, the Ascended Master Consciousness continues to draw inward towards the Source of Being, on the inflow of the Life Breath, all the consciousness on the Planet is flowing inward in like manner, in plant life, animal life, and the life of man. You can well realize how very important it is to condition your consciousness at this partic ular time to assist all the evolutions of this Earth to be prepared for the Cosmic Inbreath which will draw all closer to their Great Source. I admonish you to plunge constantly into the Sea of Godliness, which is within, and be on guard at all times that the little self is no longer recognized or defended in thought or feeling. Once you actually get the inner feeling in the tranquil waters of Spirit you will find that you can actually 'cruise' to the Home Port, as it were, and not be buffeted about by the violent storms on the seas of imperfection and turbulence. So, come with Me into the Heart of the Cosmic and imbibe the Elixir of Spirit, the living Essence of Perfection, where We shall, together, raise the consciousness of the evolutions of this Earth, and serve as ONE to the Glory of The Almighty. Thank you for your acceptance of the Feeling, given in this Release and for your determination and constancy to fulfill that part of your own Individual Divine Plan which was allotted to you, in Divine Love by The Creator of us ALL! When the battery of your car runs down, it is attached to an equipment provided to recharge it. The battery of your physical, etheric, men tal and emotional bodies is likewise depletoed by constant usage, and as that battery runs down the vibratory action of your bodies slows down, just as in your car, and finally ceases motion. When your bodies come to this state you im mediately become a prey to the unseen vibrations that move at a similarly slow rate through the physical plane. These vibrations cause various distresses in the mental and physical bodies, disintegration and finally - what is known as death. People say "the resistance is gone" which is true, because the amount of Light alloted to the four bodies for that embodiment has been spent through excesses in these four lower vehi cles. ated. attention. your car. When it is possible and visualize the LIGHT lower bodies for five pouring into your four DIVINE DIRECTIVES accelerate the vibratory action of these vehi cles. The more attention you put on the LIGHT, the more LIGHT you will draw into your bodies, and they will vibrate more rapidly. This will make it easier for you to hold Harmony, because when you vibrate beyond a certain rate, no in harmony can register in your world. It is no longer an effort to have self-control, for the human vibratory action ceases to be when you are vibrating so rapidly in thought and feel ing. LIFE •.•••• by Beloved Kuthumi Watching the descent of the radiant energy of the lifestream into the individual's conscious use, We see the tremendous responsibility that every individual has in being the dispenser of life. The glorious pure energy of God, each electron of which contains the fulness of the Divine Plan, not only for the individual, but for the solar system of all these planets, con tinues to flow into the individual's use under the conscious direction of the personal self, and for every electron loaned to the individual shall he render an accounting! When you call to the Holy Christ Self and ask to have released into your conscious use all the powers of your Being, the Holy Christ Self takes note of your use of God's energy in a twelve hour period. The energy you use daily is oniy about ten per cent of the allotment of your lifestream. How many of you can say that for 96 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES even one hour of the twenty-four, these electrons, this radiant energy, the spiritual essence of Divinity, has flowed through you clean and un contaminated, and qualified only with Divine Love? How then can you be considered fit to be the conscious custodian of more of that precious life essence? Ask then, for the assistance of your Holy Christ Self in the dispensing of your life energy each hour of daily living, and not alone in decrees! Remember, man is like a sieve with a thousand holes and the energy of God is constantly flow ing from each one in emotions. in thoughts expressed and unexpressed, in the actions of the flesh body, and in the spoken words. Jesus' statement: "Be ye faithful over little things and I will make you master over many," is this Truth expressed. Those who aspire to Godliness and to give greater service, and who desire the full use of all the energy of their lifestream, must give concerted, conscious effort to guard the life flowing into them each hour. Check impatience and irritation and thoughtless words! Stop the conscious churning of thought processes that re qualify God's pure life and energy, and keep pouring forth as My Great Lord Maitreya said, an emotion of 'rest in action.' Then the Holy Christ Self, looking upon your use of the talents in hand, may double those talents in your experience. Otherwise, it would not be the part of mercy or justice to increase your responsibility while you are yet unable to dispense constructively the small allotment of Life that God has given to you. ALIGNMENT OF THE SEVEN BODIES - - - - In Peiping, for many, many centuries, I have focused an activity of Healing, and within the Retreat, I offer the chelas seven irritations. They are concerned primarily with the develop ment and mastery of the seven bodies which make up the instrument of each "I AM" Presence." Each one of your bodies, beloved hearts, should have full freedom and a natural service to life in one of the Seven Spheres. The consciousness by right should be able to function in any one of those seven bodies as freely as the master of his house performs his service in any one of the rooms that make up his mansion, The "fall of man". as it has been termed, in capacitated the conscious mind to function and to bring back the remembrance of the activities in higher spheres and for the most. part made in accessible the conscious use of the Holy Christ Self, the Causal and Electronic Bodies of the people. The four lower bodies were drawn down by the senses into the sub-strata of the etheric plane, and even they do not function in their natural habitat. The alignment of the seven bodies, returning them to their own sphere and enabling the con scious mind to function in each sphere in an alert, awakened capacity and to draw back the gifts of that sphere and the activities of it into the world of form is the purpose of the Retreat at Peiping and My Service in the Healing of minds and of bodies. 98 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES are functioning primarily, or are supposed to, in the First Realm, in the Heart of God Himself, where the great ideas and the causative centers of the Universal First Cause are freely acces sible. The Causal Body was destined to function in the Second Realm, where ideas were clothed in form, where they took on specific and definite outline, and where the Causal Body of the con sciousness was enabled to fashion clothing, so to speak, for some portion of the Divine Plan. The Holy Christ Self originally functioned in the Third Sphere, and the etheric body, which functions now mostly in the psychic and astral realm, originally held the Divine Pattern in the Fourth Sphere, where the Holy Christ Selves presently abide. The mental body functioned in the Fifth Sphere where the dedication of the energies and the drawing forth of the plan enabled the lifestream to cooperate both with the inner realm and the realm without. It was the activity of drawing the great services of the inner realms into form. The emotional body was to function in the Sixth Sphere, the realm of ministration presently under the direction of the Lady Master Nada and its service was to pour forth the qualities of the Godhead, the nature of the Godhead. The physical body then, of course, was to function in the Seventh Sphere. That is why Saint Germain is beginning, through the contact of the outer consciousness, through the physical body, in the Seventh Sphere to help that consciousness work its way back into the Heart of God. Do you see? I The seven ganglionic centers in the flesh body are a focus or connection with each one of the Seven Spheres and also the connection into your physical form of the activities of each inner sphere. It is a most detailed service, and yet if you understand it fully, you can enter into the necessary personal application to devel op your conscious awareness within these inner spheres, placing your bodies again at the disposal of the soul and the Self, and using them as they were intended. When they are in perfect align ment with the Silver Cord running through them, you have the Master Presence, functioning freely, knowing the Will of God; working in the world of form from the consciousness of the Causal Body, and then lowering into physical expression the Divine Ceremony of manifesting that Will in everv activity of your daily life. These Temples in Peiping enable Us to draw initiates and people interested in re-aligning themselves and awakening the higher consciousness from the world of form. Here We teach them first the control of the physical body; the proper eating and breathing habits; then We develop within them an°understanding of the ganglionic centers, the color of them; the connection with each center and the body which it represents. When they are well versed master physicians, We take them into the mental, emotional, etheric and finally the higher mental world and on up into the Causal Body. Then you have a real "Messenger of Light" who can function in the Electronic Body, who can contact the Masters at will. They can also act in the capacity of the mediator, or stepdown transformer, not only for the Word but the qualified energy of any Master Presence in the universe. lUO DIVINE DIRECTIVES It is a beautiful S<'l v 11 ·c· t:o ,lJ fCJ .ind it is one that if it interests you, t w i l I r-hooae to develop and give to you so you may embody some of the application and endeavor to find a way to aligning your blessed vehicles again; devel oping them, maturing them, and making them your servants. You know there is so much to any one facet of service. E.ach one of Us has served for thou sands of years, hundreds of thousands, sometimes millions, in developing and maturing and perfect ing one particular service to life. Then We are given thirty or forty minutes in which to present Our activity to the earnest and yet ofttimes con fused outer mind. It is difficult in the extreme to restrain Ourselves -and to give you just some simple, workable knowledge which can alleviate your present distresses. Yet, that must come first, because there must be a modicum of peace in mind, body nnd affairs before the deeper activities, of t lH' T,c1w can sufficiently take hold of your i nt o ront; allcl 1!11 into bloom; every flowering shrub; every treF that follows its natural pattern does, throuJh the Nature Kingdom, that which I did through a· flesh DIVINE DIRECTIVES body! You, too, must do this some day! Within your own individualized "I AM" Presence, you have your Divine Pattern and Plan. You have been created and directed from the heart of the Universal First cause by some Great God-parents. Some of you came from Alpha and Omega's Cosmic Hearts; some from Isis and Osiris; some from Apollo andDiana; some from Krishna and Sophia; or from Helios and Vesta. (Note: The above Sun Gods and Sun Godesses are Those in charge of Systems closer to the Great Central Sun than the System to which the Earth belongs - Helios and Vesta being the God-parents of our System. Alpha and Omega represent the Great Central Sun Itself.) Your individualized "I AM" Presence was created in the Image of the God-parents Who directed a Three-fold Flame from Their hearts into universal light substance and around that Flame coalesced your glorious Electronic Body of light. Then later, there was projected down into this phys ical appearance world a portion of that magnif icent Flame. It contains within Itself (even as the bulb contains within itself the perfect design of the daffodil), the picture and the seed of your Divinity and of your God-self. Are you less, then, than a flowering bulb or a seed that produces after its kind? Are you less than a blade of grass; less than even the embryo chicken which bursts from the egg, following the pattern of its parents? Ah, no! You are far greater! However, you have one thing which is not the gift of the Nature Kingdom - free-will! Through the use of that gift of free-will, you have cho sen not to let the God Who created you (the Divine, perfect "I AM" Presence Who is living within your heart) expand into Its full perfec tion. From time to time, Beings have been chosen at Inner Levels Who. have a certain consciousness 4 DIVINE DIRECTIVES of the capacity of "letting go and letting God" and these volunteer to come to Earth through physical embodiment to show the people the way to attain Mastery; showing them how to develop into the full flower; the full bloom of the' Christ, Your Mission Similar to Mine! Now, your Mission is similar to My own! Before I came into the world of form, I was "charged" w:i.th a Mission - that is - to manifest unto all mankind the full perfection of Our Father which is in Heaven, You were also so "charged" when you were created! When your Beloved Infinite "I AM" Presence projected down into your physical heart the Immortal Three-fold Flame, that Flame con tained within It the embryonic Christ Whose light We are now endeavoring to expand until it has stirred the outer self from its soul-sleep, We are trying to expand that light to a point where Its pressure is more powerful than that of the shadows of the physical and astral Realms in which you presently abide. Beloved ones, let us not feel that "becoming the Christ" is such an effort! Is it an effort for the bulb to release the green shoot; the lovely golden head of the daffodil; or the lily with its fragrance? Is it an effort for the Nature Kingdom each Spring to manifest the Spirit of Resurrection and, where trees with leafless branches signify the absence of life, to bring perfume and color in blossoms that garland your countryside with such beauty that it brings you closer to the Kingdom of Heaven? Beloved ones, why is mankind alone content to allow the embryonic Christ within his heart DIVINE DIRECTIVES . to remain quiescent within Its 'shell'? Why is he content to let it remain within the "bulb'' and not let the flower of his Divine manhood unfold? The perfume, beauty, dignity and gifts of God through each one should expand to bless the Earth and Her people - sick unto death with travail and all manner of distress. What is the "second-coming"? One Christ is not enough, even in a two-thou sand year period! The "second-coming" means the awakening of many men and many women; many sin cere and determined lifestreams who have had enough of their own way and who, in the privacy of their own rooms, are willing to kneel before their own God, asking that that Presence have Its Own way with them; externalizing the glory of the Divine Pattern and Plan through their outer selves. This was My Message - it was My Mission! It was the reason for My coming into being; the reason for which I went through every experience of the Earth life, even to allowing men to mut ilate My flesh form. I allowed this to prove that the Immort_.ality and Divinity of the Godhead could be manifest through one of the sons of men. This is My endeavor now, in drawing your atten tion, each and every one of you, to your own Christ. It is not as if you had to generate something inside yourselves that is not already there. It is not as though the gardener had to insert the pattern and picture of the daffodil into the bulb,,,,it is already there! the very fact that you have being and a beating heart proves that this Divine Image and Pattern is within you and It but requires the courtesy of your lifestream at this time. All over the world 6 DIVINE DIRECTIVES tonight, earnest and sincere groups of men and women have gathered together while We are endeav oring to pour Our energies into their souls, dislodging in that process the desire to continue to use free-will destructively! Dear hearts, the removal of the destructive use of free-will is the petition which you in dividually and collectively have made to the Karmic Board. I would like to explain to you that the desire to use the free-will destruc tively (which continues to create and sustain imperfection) is in the feeling world. Thus you may understand a little more clearly how it is possible for you, through application, to raise the vibratory action of you own world, the student body and then of mankind at large, to a point where destructive desires no longer exist. You know that the more rapid the vibrations of energy, -- physically, mentally, emotionally or etherically, - the less of discord there is! The slower the vibratory action of the atoms and cells which make up your physical and inner bodies, the more prone they are to accept and become the recipients of vibrations of a low, heavy and discordant nature. Therefore, the acceleration of the vibratory rates of your inner and outer vehicles is part of the reason for your decree work, your songs and, in general, your collective group endeavors. Acceleration of Decrees and Songs is Benefical When a group of students gathers together for a meeting, a Great Master Presence or Deva stands within the atmosphere. As the decrees, fiats and songs go forth in a fairly rapid but balanced tempo, the rate of vibration of the atoms making DIVINE DIRECTIVES up your physical and inner bodies increases and there is thrown off much mis-qualified substance which is instantly transmuted by the Great One in charge of the meeting. You would be amazed could you see with the inner sight, how much impure substance of your worlds is thus transmuted by that beautiful., ever-present and all-willing Violet Fire. This impure substance has been lodged in your physical and inner bodies. Benefactions of Violet Flame This Violet Transmuting Flame is always blaz ing up around every Sanctuary, once it has been called forth there, even when you are not present. It is so wonderful to know that the Violet Fire is always there. Whenever purification is called for, that Violet Flame goes into action. It frees the Elemental substance from all impurities,re turning it to the Sun for repolarization by Divine Love. Explanation of Atom and Electron Now, to expiain the activity of the atoms We shall go back to our illustration of the elec tron and the atom which has been given you previously. The Causal Body** (represented by the circles of color around the upper figure in the Chart) may be likened unto an enlarged electron. Many of those electrons, swinging around a cen tral core, form one atom. Between each electron there is a great distance (relatively speaking). As the electrons swing within their atom, they are either expanding their light or they are closed in by the discord and substance of the astral and psychic Realm, which is forced like pie-shaped wedges, between these points of light. 8 DIVINE DIRECTIVES Now, when your thoughts, your feelings and your etheric memories dwell upon imperfectior1, you slow down the vibratory action of your electrons and then the substance of the psychic and astral Realm closes in around them, lowering the entire vibration of your four lower bodies. In this way you become an easy prey to depression, pov erty, ill-health; to any number of thR various negative aspects which mankind at large mirro.r and outpicture today. ******* **(Note: The "Causal Body" is composed of a series of circles of constructive colors around the in dividualized God Presence of each lifestream (the "I AM" Presence), that which Beloved Jesus called "The Father". This Causal Body is the repository of all the good created and developed by that lifestream - that created by the Presence and Holy Christ Self of the individual at Inner Levels, before taking physical embodiment; as well as all the good created, developed and expanded by the human personality through all its centuries of embodiment here on Earth (or on some other planet, if the individual came here from another Star). Beloved Jesus says in one of the Gospels in the New Testament that man shall be accountable for every word that proceeds from his mouth; also that every "jot and tittle" must be accounted for. So it is! Not one electron or atom escapes from experi encing the results of the vibrations sent out by, from or through it. The Law of the circle is absolute and all must return to its source one day -- either for purification or reward. That which is GOOD is deposited in the causal Body and that which is discordant (becauPe of its very density and low rate of vibration) stays around the physical body and its environ ment. It is this accumulation of evil which DIVINE DIRECTIVES forms the Astral or Psychic Plane! This dis cordant accumulation (individual as well as the collective discord in the Astral and Psychic Realm, must all be purified and redeemed one day, before the Ascension can take place). This purification is accomplished through the constant, dynamic use of the Violet Transmuting Flame. When 51% of the energy of one's lifestream has been drawn into the Causal Body, qualified with perfection, then that individual's Ascension into his Presence (his Source of God's Perfection) has begun. *************** Lower Bodies Now, in order to quicken the vibratory action of your inner bodies, you must use that Immortal Three-fold Flame within your hearts and you must make conscious effort to accelerate the rate of the electrons as they move around the center of the atom. This is done through your decree work; through your songs, visualizations and applica tions individually or in groups. It is done also by a constant vigilance over the type of feelings you allow to rest in your emotional world and the type of thoughts you dwell upon. This vigilance is necessary all through the day - not only during the hours while you are in class - at which time you are directed primarily by someone in charge, whose endeavors keep your attention above the consciousness of the mass mind. The type of memories which you have and the type of physical environment with which you surround yourself also affects these inner vehicles. A.s you keep a vigilant watch over the activities of these inner bodies and you keep the vibratory action of each 10 DIVINE DIRECTIVES one of them up above vibrations of the psychic and astral realm, then there should be no diffi culty in expanding the Christ Flame from within your heart. If you allow these bodies to descend into the Realms where discord and negative crea tions abide (through discordant thoughts and feelings) then you have age, disease, limitations and distresses of every kind and description. Your physical body is interpenetrated by your etheric body. These are enfolded by your mental body and your emotional body. All of these are made up of atoms. Those atoms are composed of a series of electrons in constant motion, spinning around its tiny centripetal heart. Now, the quality of the atoms of every one of your bodies is constantly subject to change; to puri fication and etherealization; or to become more gross and more heavy, That is why individuals are sometimes very beautiful when they are young ( around eighteen years of age) • Their faces then are clear and unlined; their bodies are alive and buoyant; but after they have passed through the discordant experiences of some twenty or thirty years, you find that the vital flesh atoms have been lowered in vibration. This makes the flesh form less beautiful than it was before the discord was registered upon it. Your emotional body is in a constant state of motion, as is even this seemingly inanimate lectern upon which I place My hand. Science has confirmed that there is no such thing as inert or inanimate matter. Your emotional body is made up of millions of tiny electrons in constant movement - these form the atoms. Now, if that motion of the electrons is in accord with the rhythm of your God-Flame and is in accord with the constructive radiation of some Master , that DIVINE DIRECTIVES is fine! Then your emotional body deflects all destructive feelings projected at you, as well as all the discordant energy which you contact. You are then the Master-control of all energy wherever you are! In other words, your feelings ride upon the surface of life, just as a cork floats upon the water and it req~ires no effort to sustain itself in that buoyant, happy state. However, if the vibrations of the emotional bodies are allowed to submerge that body beneath the buoyant poised happiness of the Master (un interrupted harmony) the form of atom changes and you have a heavy and uncontrolled vehicle, which is part of the mass psychic and astral Realm of mankind. In order to refine and purify such an emotional body, the student has to keep using the Violet Fire through it constantly! Here, let Me digress for just a moment. Some times it is quite amazing to Me to see what some people think I feel! My goodness! If I had been the luke-warm, sad-faced individual mankind pic ture Me to be, I never would have gained the victory! Beloved Friends, Divine Love takes great strength! To honestly love in the face of betrayal, abuse and distress takes great strength. Love is not a negative, luke-warm consciousness which mankind so often accept in referring to the shepherd and the sheep. The shepherd is eternally vigilant and his love for his sheep takes him into many dangerous places, believe Me! Now, going back again to this emotional body of which We were speaking - if you find that yours is heavy; if it has explosive tendencies and if it has various qualities in it, apt to rush off 12 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES hit or miss, according to the pressures of the moment, all right! Let us be calm about it! You have created it throughout many centuries of living. It is made up of intelligent electrons forming atoms and these you have collected through ages of time. They are yours! No one can take them from you, - probably no one wants to!! The very fact that it is yours; that it is intelligent and that it can be sublimated (re fined by fire) should be an encouragement to you, Students get so discouraged the moment they see any expression of the "Dweller on the Threshold" ( their own human creation) - the moment they see something in their worlds which needs correction, They go along for many years or perhaps a whole lifetime in joy and happiness when their strong points are confirmed; but it is the weak points which keep you from your Ascension! Dear hearts, We come to give you assistance in correcting that which is wrong in your world and help you create strength of character .•.• Every time you have a flare of discordant feeling, it blasts through your emotional body, setting all the electrons and atoms ajar. What happens then? After these little electrons and atoms get over their shock, they are vibrating in a broken rhythm and any of the psychic and astral Realm around them, vibrating at the same rate, connects with them and becomes part of the substance of your own emotional vehicle. Meantime, through the natural proximity of the mental body to the emotional, the electrons of the mental body are also set into motion and you have another set of discordant vibrations, When the mental body is inharmonious, it tunes into other discordant thoughts and draws those types of atoms into itself, This stirs up etheric memories, some body did the same thing to you twenty years ago, and the etheric body starts into motion. (Audi ence laughed.) Well, beloved ones, I am glad you can laugh, but this is what happens to the average chela and student in a period of twenty four hours, once if not more often. Then, all of these discordant bodies react upon the flesh and you have indigestion, a headache or some other physical distress. The flesh body is prostrated for the time being, Then, all over again, you have to start to recreate a harmony among the members of your household. The Beloved Maha Chohan brought out a good point of instruction, last night. You know, some times it is necessary for Us to come together and discuss the class work, as well as your progress individually. He said one of Us should be sure to bring to the attention of the students the fact that repression of emotions is not the answer to this endeavor to sublimate the outer self. You see, repression of thoughts, emotions or actions will only cause frustration, which will react in either physical distress or some mental or emotional block in consciousness. Transmutation of your energies is the safe way to get these vehicles into alignment. Now, you can use various methods of transmutation. If you are a very dynamic, powerful and pos itive individual and you have a great amount of energy to handle, you can transmute that energy in some type of constructive service. Those of you who are gifted musically -- when you feel a surge of irritation approaching, - still yourself for a moment and then do something good with that energy. Play the piano; write a kindly letter; do something you know will make someone else happy; do something constructive and make 14 DIVINE DIRECTIVES the energy in the emotional body render some good service, rather than allowing it to explode in the unbridled emotion of the moment. Please, dear hearts, do this with the mental body as well. If you have recurrent thoughts of self-pity or depression and if you continue to go back to thought patterns of impurity (some lifestreams have more to handle along this line than others) , take charge of those thoughts right then and there! If your mind is inclined to dwell on the negative side of life; on either impurity, poverty or limitation of any kind; put your mind to work on something j.l st the opposite. Give it a book to read; give it something con structive to do and re-channel that energy to where you want it to go! Give your mind con structive decrees to learn and repeat, As long as it wants to work, then give it one of the books of the Ascended Masters to read and let the energy work itself out harmoniously. The same thing is true of the etheric body, Individuals who have a lot of leisure on their hands, - particularly those in mental institutions, old peoples' homes, prisons, etc,, - those who have not enough to do - allow the etheric body to continue to spin out records of past injuries which have caused those conditions to manifest. The entire atmosph.ere in and around those places is permeated with that effluvia of depression. This is also true of students when they go on vacation or have too much free time, If the etheric body has not been fully purified, there will come out of this sub-conscious Realm many things which cause you to feel a sense of being "hard-done-by", through the injustices of other parts of life, This is something to guard against! You can do the same with this etheric DIVINE DIRECTIVES body as you did with the other bodies, -- either use your music or your reading, or render some constructive service to your fellow-man. This will keep your etheric body from that disintegra ting practice of energizing past errors, If you will do this, beloved ones, eventually you will get the electrons and atoms of all your bodies polarized and harmonized long enough to let God, through you, fulfill Himself. The God head must get all your vehicles to a point of uninterrupted harmony long enough to allow that beautiful Presence to fulfill Itself in glory through you, in dignity and in Mastery. by The Cosmic Being Faith Faith is a quality that is inherent within life, There is no one who does not have faith in something, In its primal essence, life con tains -- undeveloped -- every quality that is constructive. The evolving egos seem to lose the use of some qualities (temporarily at least) , during their long journey through the Earth plane, such as Freedom, Victory, Purity, However, there is no evolving ego who ever entered upon the pathway of life's experience, who has been without Faith by which he has moulded daily the energy of his own being, Individuals have always had, now have and will always have faith in something. Here we come to the clear understanding of the quality representing Faith, It is a channel ~hrough wbich the life energy of the evolving ego flows to energize whatever the individual chooses 16 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES to accept as being true for him and, according to his faith, as Jesus said repeatedly, it shall be done unto him. The directive power of the attention and the receptive power of the senses are instruments of Faith. However, Faith itself is a conscious pouring forth of life essence which energizes and magnifies that which the evolving ego believes to be real and to which, through his faith, he gives his own God Power whereby it is enabled to live in this world of experience. If you will examine the great men of all ages, as well as the tryants of history, you will see that they all had Faith -- one· in God Power acting through them -- and the others in their own ability to achieve glory and dominion. Each of them used the quality of Faith to achieve their respec tive ends. It is not a matter of acquiring Faith, but it is a matter of training the evolving ego to allow the Faith of that one's being to flow only into those manifestations which he or she wishes to sustain. In his intellectual arrogance, man is so prone to use the reports of his senses as irrefutable law to prove his faith is founded on fact. When such an one sees an appearance of illness, such an one feels justified in his own mind -- "I have seen it with my own eyes and it is therefore child ish for me to affirm that it is not real." The Faith of his evolving ego thus joins his energies with the discordant appearance and Faith, being the energizing power of God, then makes the con dition real to him, by the very quality and pressure of his acceptance, This same man, looking at an individual walk ing down a road, sees that individual seem to diminish in size until he becomes no larger than a thumbnail •..• His physical sight reports that his friend has shrunken to the size of a thumb na i 1 , yet the man has no faith in the report of his physical sight because he knows that it is an optical illusion. Therefore, should the visonary faculties of man be taken as infallible conduc tors of Truth to affect the quality of a person's faith? To take another simple illustration, let us use the faculty of hearing, An individual will accept the report of a gun, an explosion or a cry of pain as real because he heard it with his physical ears; yet he is constantly moving in an atmosphere filled with music but does not hear that music until the medium of the radio lowers its vibratory action to a point where the hearing sense can absorb it, Then is the hearing faculty accurate enough to allow it to mould the quality of a man's faith? You might follow the same trend in regard to the senses of touch, smell and even further into the realm of feeling, For instance, a person may have a strong feeling of fear concerning an impending disaster or distressing circumstances over which one seems to have no control. These fear feel ings prevent the individual's placing his faith in God's power to protect and supply him, There fore the pressure of his faith is flowing forth into that discordant condition to energize it and make it seem real to him. This is because the feeling nature is also subject to erroneous reports which have no foundation in truth or fact. 18 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES If man could learn the truth of Jesus' state ment -- "according to your faith be it unto you" he would realize what a powerful force is the quality of his faith and how the natural state of his consciousness of being determines contin ually the manifestation he is energizing. The attention is a spiritual faculty which is constatnly directed by the mind and is the channel through which God's energy flows. The attention carries on the beam of its own mag netic force the radiation of the sender to the object upon which the beam is played. Faith is a constant state of one's being every second of eternity. When the evolving ego is so impreg nated with the inner conviction of consciousness that GOD IS THE ONLY POWER THAT CAN ACT, such an one's faith is constantly energizing that God Power flowing through all appearances. The treatment is not a matter of a few days or month's concentration, but a constant outpouring of that quality of. faith in which the Masters and ALL Perfected Beings eternally dwell, All the Celestial Hierarchy and in fact all life (except that evolving upon the Earth plane) abides in perfect faith in GOOD. There is no "house divided against itself" except in the hu man kingdom. It is this human kingdom that has imparted fear, uncertainty and doubt to the an~mal and elemental kingdoms through giving faith to a power opposed to God. The cycle has come again when the quality of Faith will be used ONLY to expand the radiation of the God Power. THE POSSIBILITIES OF THE CHELA by The Beloved Maha Chohan Unfoldment must come from Self-conscious Effort When an individual seeks entrance to the so-called Mysteries and the personal association with the Gods, he steps forward voluntarily into the Light, which will of necessity reveal both his strengths and his weaknesses. He then uses that portion of the Law of which he is aware to remove the weakn2sses and to be come a fit instrument for the Gods. According to his ability to consciously cooperate is his consciousness widened. Remember --- The Gods are not the Law of one's lifestream. They are merely Friends who point the Way to spiritual unfoldment and eventual Freedom. Application and unfoldment must come always from self-conscious effort, The student unfolds and expands from within himself if he is alert to apply the instruction given. The Teacher does not apply the Law of mathematice for the student, but advises him of the methods and then he must abide in the student's own ability to work out the intricacies of the mathematical law. So it is with you. Use the Resurrecting Power of Life, which is Yours As the Holy Spirit to this Earth, "I AM" the dom, the Animal Kingdom and Mankind. 20 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES Jesus availed Himself of the r~U£r£ctigg power within Life when He reanimated His physical body on that first Easter morning. He said - "What I have done, all men shall one day do." This same resurrecting power is yours and it may be utilized to quickly ra i.se your lifestream into the state of pure Christ Consciousness. As you use those powerful words of Jesus, feel your self and your affairs raised quickly into freedom. Your specific Desire should be to become The Hand of God Each man becomes aware that he is God through self-conscious unfoldment. When an individual recognizes his Divinity in his feelings he be comes self-luminous and passes from this school room into the next Octave, which is referred to in metaphysical parlance as the Ascended Master Realm. Even in that Realm expansion, growth and unfoldment continues up the ladder of cosmic evolution. There is a spiritual law which allows acer tain number of the Hierarchy after the Ascension to supervise the laboratories of Earth and, when conditions permit, to come into close associa tion with those lifestreams who are being pre pared for graduation. This closer communion is twofold: a) It enables the evolving soul to progress more rapidly, and b) It enables the Spiritual Hierarchy to expand Its plans of Divine work through self-conscious cooperation of members of humanity who volunteer their service. Such a close communication with the Gods is, of course, a tremendous privilege, but it is neither comfortable nor easy. a) Be honest with yourself; b) Persevere: c) Examine your motives, which are open to the Masters, and d) Do not attempt chelaship unless you have but one desire -- to become the Hand of God and ultimately to ascend. - - - - Your Goal: To hear God's Presence speak A tree is known by its fruit - a man is known by his actions - a God is recognized by His works. Wise is the man who has the intuition to pierce the veil and hear the "I AM" Presence speak. How to regain your Divine Powers When man voluntarily left God's Kingdom through accepting a power opposed to God, he left on the threshold of that Kingdom all the Divine Powers of his being. When he swore allegiance to the physical appearance world he relinquished all claim to the Powers that belonged to the Godhead. When he chooses to return to he must, in his own feelings, claim to human powers and all powers opposed to God. He must step within the threshold of God's Kingdom gently and humbly, as a child, and in this state of humility the God Powers will leap forth to unfold him, for They are most eager God's Kingdom relinquish all belief in all 22 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES for avenues of expansion. You may become one of My Channels The progress of every incarnate spirit and the unfoldment of his consciousness to a point where the personal self blends with the D.ivine, is My particular individual responsibility in this Universe, for without Life there cµn be no evolution and all Life is the Breath of God. This Holy Breath passes through My Body in-to the Earth plane, as I AM the Representative Pf the Holy Spirit. As I AM, then, the Dispenser of the Gifts of Life to the Planet, to the Kingdom of N~ture and to man, it becomes My immediate conc~rn to teach mankind the proper use of Life, that they might unfold according to the Divine PlaP, for as you must render an accounting for your ,1se of Life, so AM I responsible to the Father fc)r all the energy that is used on this Pianet an~ I must retire it one day in the same puritf with which the Father gave it forth to Me. Then~fore, you can see how very important the evolution of every individual soul is when they are consc~ious ly endeavoring to become a channel through which I may assist and reach the masses. Such a chan nel you may become and for this reason I AM willing to give you My Personal attention, How to Become Truth To become Truth one must pierce the vfil of words for the most beautiful expressed rEvela tions are but the coarser clothing of rea1ity. Printed instruction is like a door, but one must pass through the "words" into the inner realization of the fact which the words so clum sily endeavor to portray. In the Octave of Per fection the Light Pictures and colors express much more accurately the Truth of Life than the most beautifully written or spoken essay, but even the Light and Color Patterns are but a door to Reality. One must experience through the flesh the Truths as presented by such expressions. OPPORTUNITY IS THE DOOR by Beloved Saint Germain Friendship to Me, is the most exquisite ac tivity in this whole Universe and it is builded out of energy contributed voluntarily by both parties who choose in sincerity to call each other friends. I c:an call you, in all sincerity, beloved Friends of Freedom; friends not only of Myself and My lifestream, but friends of the quality, nature and freedom who have, age after age and era after era, endeavored to serve the cause of freedom in whatever nation, whatever continent required the assistance of Freedom's Light! God needs a body, beloved ones, and every Ascended Master, every Member of the Spiritual Hierarchy is dependent upon the friendship and voluntary cooperation of unascended bein~s to fulfill the cause, the destiny, the activity which He fosters and sponsors at inner levels. Even in the compound, it was required lifestreams be awakened from their trcm lethargy so that through those lifestrcam 24 DIVINE DIRECTIVES assist to bring Light into that compound and four such lifestreams came forth and took the vow of obedience to the Lord of the World, Thus through those four we were able to bring Light into that concentrate of evil and through them raised and transformed that energy into its na tural estate. So in a lesser degree do We work for the mankind of Earth THROUGH YOU! You are the "open door"; Ours the energy, the vitality, the fire, the enthusiasm, the concentrate of Spiritual Essence that flows through the open door of your consciousness, passes through the energies or your de~rees, your visualizations and your contemplations, Ours is the heritage of centuries of love and service, but yours the door through which Our Gifts may reach mankind! Without an OPEN DOOR the perfection of the King dom of Heaven could not externalize. Without the sacrifice of Jesus, the ministry which He manifested of mastery could not have been brought into the conscious minds of ma.nkind. Without the voluntary dedication of your energy, individually, (and I speak to each one of you as if you and I were alone), without your voLun - tary attention upon the Ascended Masters, with out your voluntary invitation to step down Our energy through your mental, emotional, and et.heric worlds and your flesh bodies, We could not assist the race, So to the Open Door of those who have risen above the mass mind, those who have accepted Our reality and Our desire to help, to those blessed ones, We are eternally grate ful -- without them, the world in truth, would be lost! Opportunity came to your door, beloved ones, when you had nought to measure truth or tc:i.lsity except by vibration, You chose to take Her Hand DIVINE DIRECTIVES and made the association between My own Heart and yours a closer one. You recognized My Be loved (Goddess of Opportunity) and according to your perception of Opportunity in the days ahead, will your freedom be assured. OPPORTUNITY IS THE DOOR AND FREEDOM IS THE REWARD! Opportunity comes in many disguises and not always blazing Her Light - only vibration apprises what is to be done that is right, Remember, when a hand is outstretched for assistance; re member when a heart is in trouble; when a fellow traveler along the road is stumbling - THAT IS OPPORTUNITY to expand your Light and to do right! by Beloved Corona Hail, Children of the Light, "I AM" corona and I dwell in the chromosphere around your Sun, It is My privilege to abide in the glorious Ra diation of Mighty Helios and Vesta, being visible only to Earthlings at the time of a total eclipse, Why do I come to you, the chelas of the Cosmic Beings and Ascended Masters at this time?

Giving a prayer of gratitude for this Celestial Journey, quietly, unhurriedly continue your application, and then proceed to follow your daily activities. I admonish you to do this exercise for short periods at first. Should you not be adept at this, ask one of the Cosmic Beings or Ascended Masters to give you assistance, until there is no strain felt in this change of vibratory action. As you will realize, this is given to you for a very specific purpose, to enable you to fur ther blend the outer self with the Inner, and the more infiltration of the Inner, the more will the outer recede.

By Beloved Jesus Beloved Friends, I bring to you to<:lay the Truth, which is the gift and momentum of My Causal Body established through the vo:luntary qualification of My Life over a period o:f many, many centuries previous to that in which :I gain ed the victory of the Ascension, Oh, cpildren of God, if you could see the treasures you are laying up in the glory of your Causal Body 1:hrough this life time of magnificent, const.arrc loyal dedicated and enthusiastic service, how gfateful you would be that you have chosen th~ wiser course, and that in which you have invested the Life of God shall remain for you ever a Cosmic battery on which you may draw and which you may direct to any part of any Universe or a11y Star to give assistance as you desire. When We stand in the fuller freedom in th~ Inner Realms and see the waste of Life, and chen We are privileged to witness, over a period of years, the consciously gathering, individual and tollec tive momentums of consecrated lifestrea~s, Our hearts are filled with eternal gratitucie that some, among the sons and daughters of mr-n, are choosing wisely and building for themselves the instruments of the Cosmos; for the lenJth of h al no My Children of Lighl and of Life, I Who have been summoned among olhers to render service upon many planes of consciousness and in many Universes, have seen Those, even the God-free Whose Causal Body did not reach to the periphery of the sphere of service which They wished to render, and that is a cause for spiritual remorse indeed. DO USE YOUR CAUSAL BODIES. Your Causal Bodies are blazing with qualified momentums carrying the colors of the qualities which you have builded into those Causal Bodies through year after year of study, contemplation, invocation and mighty decrees -- If you could see them, like beautiful, radiant, many colored suns standing around your own Electronic Presence! That will be yours for Eternity! And some day when you address a System of Worlds, you can say as I, today, "I bring to you the full gathered Cosmic momentum of My Faith, of My Love, of My Beauty, of My Healing, and of My Peace!" All that you have gathered, even in individual application in the wee small hours of the night, all that rushing like a great river when the sluice and the dam is opened and forced to the object to which you have directed it. We are cominq int:o on understanding now of your indivi dua 1 c;,1pac it· i C'S Lo reach deep into and moving among men, By Beloved Vulcan A primary factor each lifestream lies the centre or focal point of the individual consciousnesss. outer personality. DIVINE DIRECTIVES The Four Lower Bodies In studying the four lower bodies as the con tributing factors to the consciousness and as the "qualifiers" of tons of God Energy, we see that the central point of consciousness is in constant motion, functioning in one or more of the four lower bodies and is like a basket ball tossed by the players in the course of the game. The individual thus functions from the heart of the emotional body, or the mental, or the etheric, or the physical, moving like the pendulum of a clock from one to the other, according to the particular experience and pressure and the wile of the body which tries to secure for the moment the prize. The body which secures the center of conscious ness is highly energized during the time when that focus is within it, and, therefore, the lower bodies seek and fight with each other to secure the center of the individual consciousness through fair means or foul. This is a completely fatal condition for the progress of the lifestream, be cause an individual whose central balance is constantly shifted to the authority of his lower bodies is a prey to his emotional outbreaks, his etheric memories, etc. The Grail is within the Heart The Grail provided for the Focus of each life stream' s consciousness is within the heart and when the individual attains mastery he holds his consciousness within the Three-fold Flame in his heart where perfect balance rules all his outer activities and where the Light Ray from his Pres ence forms a direct line of communication, in spiration and direction, which is much more I' DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES ,.,,,. i 1 y l't\CC'i ved from the Secret Place of the h ,n t I Ii qh.

One should not tightly entwine the fingers with palms clasped. This restricts the flow of his energy in bless ing to all life. It has often been stated that an individual with fist grasped is a selfish person. While We know that is not the intent of the chela who holds his hands in that manner through force of habit, but there are certain basic rules which hold true both in Spiritual and physical activities. I bring this to your attention so that those of you who assume this position can correct it in the future. The instrument which you designate as the physical garment should always symbolize the beauty which is within, although the real meaning of this vehicle has been little understood ex cept by the Initiates Who have passed through the Tests into the Temple of Truth, thus dwell ing in their own Individualized God Presence. There are significant postures through which many of the Powers of the Cosmic Christ may be invoked and drawn forth. These were formerly given by word of mouth to the chelas who had passed beyond the capacity to use them except for Good. Invocation The posture of Invocation holds the physical garment erect, the hands raised above the head toward the Source of Life. The majority of your artistic masterpieces of a Spiritual Nature show ing the individual in the Act of Invocation, de pict the body with hands extended. However, the correct position is thehandsand the head raised into the Light. Benediction The Act of Benediction is drawing the Invoca - tive Powers downward and precipitating them from the fingertips. This attitude, after the vehicle is thoroughly impregnated with the Light, connects the lifestream with the Cosmic Christ Power of Benediction, and releases countless amounts of energy. Supplication The kneeling posture is NOT invocation. The kneeling vehicle, with the spine straight, and the head bowed, is Supplication, or Gratitude. It is supplication when the outer self is not yet fully conscious of the Will of God, and the bowed head is the submission of the intellect ual consciousness of the Divine Directing In telligence. When the supplication, or prayer consciousness, has revealed to the outer self the right course of action, invocation may freely take place, The Symbol of the Cross Now let us take the Symbol of the Cross. The living Body of the Master Jesus upon the cross struck into the ground at Golgotha represented the beginning of the redemption of the Planet Earth, You will remember that the early explorers used the cross imbedded into the virgin earth to claim the ground in the name of some human Ruler, but it was really in the Name of exploration of God's Kingdom.

I have presented the foregoing to you for study and contemplation, and permit Me to coun sel you to accept this in reverence, and debase it not through fanatical or irreverent practice. This is not for public use, but for the privacy of your own room where others are not present. We feel that your consciousness is sufficiently illumined to understand that fanaticism could easily creep in were the chela not sufficiently emotionally balanced and thus draw attention to the human or outer self. Your acceptance of these Truths You are being permitted to receive this infor mation of a nature which has deep inner meaning, and according to your acceptance and use of these Truths will more be forthcoming, as your con sciousness is prepared and receptive. Tamper not with Spiritual Instruction, for it was just such practice which caused many Priests, Priestesses and others to sink beneath the waves when the Planet submerged some of Her continents. In loving and humble gratitude to the creator of Us all, I now enfold you in the Divine Love and Protection of the Spiritual Hierarchy, an ticipating the time when your every gesture will be Spiritually meaningful, and in expanded activ ity take the form of Ritual for the expansion of the Light of the Cosmos. OF LIGHT By Beloved La Moray (Harmony) As individuals pass from a state of unaware ness of the beauty and majesty of Life, they gradually become cognizant of the tremendous privilege it is to be the recipients of the countless millions of electrons that are directed through the channel of their own lifestreams in the journey of the Universal Life Substance from the Fourth Dimension into the world of form. The outer self has to still itself repeatedly during the process when the personality first becomes aware of the tremendous responsibility that comes with the dispensation of light through the lifestream, because the outer self has for so many centuries used life so freely and accepted it as so much a part of the personal property of the soul that it takes quite a time for the aspirant and chela to re-orient his mind and his feeling world in order that he .may receive each electron that is passing into his keeping for DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES safe convoy into the universe around him with the same reverence, humility and respect accorded the Sacred Host on the Altar in may churches. The mankind of Earth are in a constant state of communion and should be in a constant state of Grace, because every electron passing through them contains the Body, the Spirit and the Con sciousness of the Father of all Life from whence It flowed and as these countless millions of electrons flow through the lifestream during the course of one day We see that a magic and mysti cal experience is constantly taking place wherein the spiritual essence of the Father is actually visited upon His children not alone at great Feast Days or at long intervals, but constantly. In studying the lives of the great and holy men and women that have passed through the Earth sphere in their journey toward perfection, you will find a gentle humility and an inner joy characterize them all, because each one, reaching a certain point of spiritual evolution, began to regard the Gift of Life as a very Holy Trust and an exquisite experience and the Light flow ing through them was no longer forced into false patterns by the personality but allowed its natural expression both within their own charac ter and in the lives of those blessed by the Presence of the sanctified one. Saint Germain has said that the natural ac tivity of Life is Beauty, Opulence, Happiness and Perfection without limit and as soon as the personal self can disconnect itself in conscious ness from the idea that Life can be taken lightly or thoughtlessly, then such an one comes to the threshold of a new experience wherein he is no longer the dominant figure but the Silent Witness to the constant outpouring of the qualities, manifestations, miracles and beauty of Life will carry through him and into the Universe beyond. When individuals come to a place where they will no longer seize Life at an unguarded moment and force it into an unhappy expression, they will then be entrusted with a greater outpouring of the Electronic Force from their own Presence, the Cosmic Beings, the Angelic Host and the Ascended Masters. To energize an undisciplined lifestream beyond a certain point would merely be sending more of the Spirit of God into the keeping of a human authority which would transform this pure Essence again into imperfection. In order to release the Greater Powers that lie within your own Causal Bodies and in order to form a constant conscious connection with the Members of the Ascended Host, it is necessary to make the con stant call for the purification of the personal self to a point where misqualification of energy can never again take place. These lifestreams who have achieved the sense of humble, gentle submission to Divine Will are rare indeed, but they do become the outposts of Cosmic Powers, as the Maha Chohan said, of which the outer world has no concept. There are millions of Ascended Masters Who have never come to the attention of the outer world and Who have as yet no conscious link with unascended beings. Those who would choose to unite their lifestream with these Perfected Ones will render Us the greatest service possible if they will make the calls to their own Holy Christ. Selves to so equalize and temper their four lower 66 DIVINE DIRECTIVES bodies that even under the greatest provocation or shock they would remain balanced, calm, poised and peaceful; then the Cosmic Law would allow these Cosmic Beings to give as much energy as they choose to enrich the Earth sphere. You can see that without this self-control and mastery that were a Cosmic Being to choose a lifestream as a radiating center of His energy and a sudden surprise or shock or an appearance of any kind would allow the unascended being to requalify tons of that energy, in an instant it would do untold damages whereas if it had not been released by the Master, the lifestream in question would not have so much to qualify of his own natural allotment. We are seeking selfless souls who love Harmony and are willing to sacrifice the defense of self for the maintenance of a harmonious set of vehi cles through which Our Outpouring :nay continue to expand. Analysis of an Instruction by Beloved AEolus There are among the people of Earth individ uals who have chosen to cultivate the friendship and association of certain Ascended or Perfected Beings, and by choosing to contemplate the lives of these Ascended Beings, of studying their words when such are available, by contemplating their pictures, or meditating upon their individual Focus of Intelligence, such human beings absorb the Life, the radiation and the Substance of the Master they are wise enough to contact through DIVINE DIRECTIVES the magic medium of their thought and their feeling. You can cultivate the friendship of a Master with greater ease that you can build a human friendship between men because you are always connected with the Master through the medium of thought and feeling on an instant, whereas the human bodies, bound by time and space, must needs have personal contact in order to enjoy association one with the other. The Beam of Your Attention The Consciousness and Personal Presence of and A acended Master, by Divine Law, immediately connects with any part of life which chooses to place its attention upon the God Focus and self conscious Intelligence and Cosmic Outpouring of that Being. This is an irrefutable law. The majority of individuals do not know that their life and the beam of their attention is a mag netic current that cannot be denied by any other expression of the One Life. The Purpose of Group Decreeing The radiation from every man, woman and child in the Universe blends together and forms a whole. There is no electronic light particle, candle flame or torch, or even a match that does not increase the sum total of light in the Universe. When you take a group of people with a common purposP and join their heart-beats and the out pouring of their light waves, the conglomerate whole forms a much greater focus and its effects. stretch over a wider expanse of the Earth's sur- 68 DIVINE DIRECTIVES face than when one individual alone is dependent upon his personal pulsation and individual light wave. This is the purpose for group decreeing and group study. Intensification of the Energy of the Godhead The natural outpouring of the energy of the Godhead may be intensified without limit by any individual with the temerity of "force" a great er release of Light than that allotted for the human race at a given time. Self-conscious beings have a God-given oppor tunity to learn how to draw energy, qualify it and send this energy forth· in a harmonious manner. Any unascended being inviting and invoking the Beings and Powers of Light may increase the heart-beat of the Elohim and man, and as the acceleration takes place, not only mankind but the Gods Themselves will grow in Glory and Splendor. From the Heart of your I AM Presence there flows a steady stream of electrons into a tiny receptacle within the physical heart, as you well know, which is called the permanent atom, When the electrons enter this chamber a magic, mystic activity takes place and they become a pulsating Flame that breathes within Itself and pours forth a radiation which is the animating principle of the physical body. This small Flame within the heart, when re cognized) begins to expand ( as it has done through the attention of the chelas). As this activity DIVINE DIRECTIVES takes place, it begins to pour forth shafts of Light through the upper part of your body in the same rhythmic order. In the case of Group Leaders, your Holy Christ Self and the Masters must increase your aura to encompass and enfold your entire group, just as if with wings of Light, Youz aura is increased in one manner only - by pouring MORE pressure of Light into your heart and that Light sends forth a shaft of greater length into the world around you than it sent before, The end of each one of these longer shafts becomes the out-post of your aura and your stu dent body lives within that when they are with you, as well as when they are in their homes. Your aura is, therefore, fluidic and it stretches hither and yon, according to the particular ac tivity of your student body. This accelerates your evolution and also gives you a greater responsibility, because this in visible magnetic effluvia of your lifestream which, first of all, encompasses all your family, affects the lives of your entire student body and every lifestream between you and their per sonal presence. Remembering this you will be extra careful of the quality of your energy. As your attention is on the Presence those shafts of Light increase and they form for you a protecting radiance or circle, deflecting the currents of energy in the world around you which are not of the same vibratory rate as the rhyth mic perfection. This is the natural Mantle of 70 DIVINE DIRECTIVES Light which is emanated from the human form, and which increases as the lifestream remains in humble devotion to the life principle within the Flame. You can cultivate a conscious and constant, and listening attitude until that Flame becomes the directing Intelligence of your outer activity, and We can speak through that Flame to you. Expansion of the Cosmic Heart-beat The Holy Christ Self of mankind governs the heart-beat of the personal self in order to diminish as much as possible the destructive im pulses emanating from the unawakened masses. Expansion of this Cosmic Heart-beat is only allowed when the Universe will be benefitted by such contribution as the energy waves of that lifestream will choose to flood forth from time to time. With the proper application, the Spark in the unawakened may become a Flame. You have heard it said that the Flame will fill the entire body as the individual becomes Master. This means that every release of energy from the Presence will have a one thousand or one hundred thousand more pressure as the indivipual advances Godward. It would be a wonderful activity if you would daily ask for a greater outpouring of the cosmic currents through the hearts of the Angels and see what you can do to accelerate the evolution of Their Kingdom. If you will do this, you will see what They wil do to accelerate yours. DIVINE DIRECTIVES In your physical heart beats there is an in visible shaft of Light which goes forth from your heart into the atmosphere around you. These shafts of Light form the natural aura around the lifestream. An individual who would allow the energy of the Master to flow along these shafts of Light into the consciousness of the lifestream whom He is surrounding might render service without limit in uplifting and raising them, and such radiation would draw forth from the other life streams similar shafts of Flame. Directed Rays The Ascended Master may, and does, direct con sciously spiritual currents of force under His personal supervision and will for specific reasons. These personally directed rays are more potent and powerful than the Universal Emanation of Light that fills the Cosmos, even as the Individ ual Flame from Helios' Heart can render greater service to one invoking It than the Sunlight which play unheeded on the bodies of the masses. Here you have the key by which an individual may receive and be the beneficiary of much greater power than that which is the natural enfolding presence for the humanity of Earth. When you invoke the personal assistance of An Ascended Being, you immediately draw those concentrated rays and your lifestream is greatly accelerated by their presence within you. 72 DIVINE DIRECTIVES THE DEGREE OF MASTERY by Be loved El Mor ya We, Whom the world calls "Masters," are but Those Who have received the Degree of Mastery from Life, even as the world confers decrees upon the man or woman on Earth who has completed successfully in a university a series of lessons, and P,asse_d with satisfactory grades the various examinations. The courses laid out for those who desire to enroll in the School of Life, are as carefully laid out and as strictly taught as any Univer sity might offer. All pupils must pass through exactly the same series of experiences to re ceive the sheepskin at the end of their training. It is regrettable that in a world where "Higher Education" has come to the foreground, that men of such education cannot realize that their sci·ence of learning is but a poor copy of the University of Life; and that the "Profess ors" Who have graduated from the University of Life should be the authority to Whom they turn for council and instruction. It will be so in the days that are to come. Therefore, the Great Inner Council Who for many centuries of living, mapped the course of those who choose to enter into the stern curric ulum of chelaship leading to Mastery, has now chosen to widen the list of eligibility and allow many who heretofore might have been re jected to start upon the elementary studies. Those who are already in the "classrooms" may be called upon to tutor the beginners. Let them always remember that instruction for such assis tance will come from the "Professor" in charge! DIVINE DIRECTIVES Remember the statement of the Beloved Master Jesus: "Except ye become as a little child, ye shall not enter the Kingdom of Heaven." This means renouncing all the accretions of mental concepts; of inharmonious, suspicious and im pure feelings, and the acceptance of the Father "I AM" as a real - a living Presence! The individual must become STILL and KNOW that "I AM" Presence. Then allow it to flow freely through the imperfect ly qualified energies of the out er self. When one feels that Peace he is in the Kingdom of Heaven (Harmony). There is the "false Peace" of personal self-justifi cation, and there is the REAL PEACE which not only fills the individ ual's world, but emanates from him as the Light flows from the Sun. The REAL PEACE need not be affirm ed, claimed, nor boasted about because - in Itself - IT IS PROOF OF THE ALIGNMENT OF THE OUTER SELF WITH ITS SOURCE. KUTHUMI MORYA - BELOVED FRIEND Oh, We acknowledge Thy Wisdom - Dear And DIVINE DIRECTIVES HOW THE MASTER PREPAR.ES YOU TO WORK WITH ANOTHER LIFESTREAM by Beloved El Morya Blessed ones, in the development of a posi tive radiation you must work for it. Everybody likes a comfortable religion; certainly that is why the Earth is in the condition it is. Every body likes peace, everybody wants some other being to carry them out of distress. Now here you have the razor's edge! Do you think Lord Buddha was comfortable when He got up from the couch leaving His wife; when He walked out of the palace of His father and left His son? Do you think He was comfortable when He walked the dusty roads of India with a begging bowl and had to take from door to door those few scraps that were thrown to Him? Have you ever tried to sit in the Buddha pos ture with nothing to sustain your spine but it's own light for seven years? Have you done it for an hour? Do you think He had comfort when there was not food, no disciples, when the fiends in the astral and psychic realm presented themselves, and every test of maya blew upon His soul, and He wondered in God's Name. "Why didn't I stay home" and "Why did I not teach My people from the authorityofthe ruler's seat?" Do you think He was comfortable when He entered into those various realms of Light and saw the perfection that was there and yet refused to stay, pushing onward that soul, onward and upwardl upward! upward! ••••• until He stood in the Presence of Eternity? Do you think there was a sense of comfort after achieving the ultimate, the Mount of attain ment, the pinnacle of success, and then - to . ·I 76 DIVINE DIRECTIVES RENOUNCE Nirvana and come back, back, back into a body that was very emaciated due to His long period of Samadhi; a body in which He had to again draw those vital forces and then walk the ways of men? What did He do? He disciplined Himself as every great Being Who loves mankind enough has disciplined Himself - but He asks no discipline of others! There you have the Key! To those who are going to carry this Light the length and breadth of every land, the discipline of self and the giving of comfort to others! When Lord Buddha's Light shown, when people touched the hem ofHis garment , when they felt the sweet essence of His Presence ( and I know for I was there) the heart rushed forth and said, 'Oh, Lord, what may we do to become as Thou art? Then came the eight great steps, then came the teaching to those who ·asked, and they asked because He had the fullness of ecstasy and bliss - but HE HAD EARNED - earned it through a discipline that mankind does not see for many an age. Think you not that Moses went through dis cipline? Think of that Man, a Man Who was timid in himself, and yet was called of the Lord to take a great people across the trackless wastes and through a burning desert and across a sea over which there was no bridge, no pontoon, no possible pathway but faith! And He answered that call! He walked with men and women who spat upon Him when they felt the burning heat of the desert and when they knew no water, and when they saw the surging tides of the sea, behind them the great might of the Egyptian army - and curses descended upon Him. Yet He knew if He were to become discouraged at that moment, or resentful, all would be lost! There He stood DIVINE DIRECTIVES with the sea before Him, the Egyptian army be hind Him and a reluctant people that He was endeavoring to sa\Te surging around Him, thousands of them! In the discipline of God, holding His attention on the Presence, He carried them across that sea on the beam of His own Faith and through the desert. Then in the short span when He mounted Sinai and left them for a moment, back they went to the idols and the flesh pots of the Earth! There was discipline in that lifestream; there is discipline of the self in any great leader. Think you there was not discipline of the life of the Holy Mother of Jesus! Seldom has a woman experienced the disciplines of that lifestream. Taken from Her home before the birth of Her child; bringing Him .forth in a strange country; awaken ed when She felt all was not safe and secure and caused to cross the desert with that infant Child -- hoping, hoping always that this Light this vision of the Messiah, those Angel voices and those glorious Beings were real! Taking that infant to the doors of Luxor, letting go that hand, remaining on the outskirts in prayer un til He returned. Was it not a discipline to stand on Golgatha's hillside beneath a bleeding cross and not for once in three hours to take Her attention from the very body that She had borne and the spirit of Her Son. Was it not a discipline on the part of that Son, in the height of His youth, prime and mastery to lay that body down! Beloved ones, there is a discipline that is born of love in the heart, love for mankind at large that enables some to take upon themselves certain steps which develop the inner nature. 78 DIVINE DIRECTIVES Then in example, in radiant light to become a magnet so that mankind will say: "What you are, I would be, what you have I would like, what you desire I would become". Then to those men and women who ASK, put a positive and encourag ing presentation of the law. The "thou shalt not" stir the animal in man. Take the "THOU SHALT", thou shalt sublimate the passion of thy body to illumine the mind. Thou shalt rise above the desire of making thy body a sepulcher for the dead beast. Thou shalt take into thy body new life, new light through the natural herb and produce -- THOU SHALT -- pointing out the good and showing the pathway UP is the pathway of Light and not making of discipline a lash. I KNOW for I learned the hard way. I was thinking about a trip to meet Lord Hi.m+ alaya -- Kuthumi and I were laughing about it as We remembered back many centuries ago. l had been a warrior and a soldier for many ages, and I must admit I had rremendous spiritual pride in my capacity to follow through -------- through at all cost to God, man, anything that was in My path. Finally in the travelling of our souls through embodiment after embodiment, We came to a point where Our Lord Maha Chohan began to look upon Us as a possible TEAM, and I think He had the founding of the Theosophical move ment in mind. One day He called Us before Him and said: ''Bro thers, I have a little excursion for you, just a period of relaxation for you have worked so hard on your own individual discipline that I am going to send you on a beautiful trip to find the Retreat of Lord Himalaya together". Oh! We were so happy - you know like oh.iLdren obeying! DIVINE DIRECTIVES We started out in Kashmir, in the Vales of Kashmir where the sea is blue. Ah, children that country is magnificent! The green slopes running down to the water, the most magnificent bird songs, the Kashmir weavers. It is a beauti ful land, the land of peace, the land that be longed to My Kuthumi. We sat and talked together and planned Our little trip. We thought We had better get started early because of the hea~y snows in the mountains. He said; "You be in charge of the sleeping gear and the path, anc I will be in charge of the food and the Prayer." We thought that would be just fine, I will never forget the morning that We left - to Us it was an ou'ti.nq , an excursion. We had no path, you know, no one told Us WHERE this Retreat would be - except the compass of our hearts- but - we had the mission given to Us by Our Lord Maha Chohan! The very first day We started out, I was well in the lead, bold and happy, heading for the first passes. I looked back and no Kuthumi! I sat down for a little while and practiced a medi tation that I had because I was to be the compass of this trip. No Kuthumi - the day was pretty nearly spent. Finally I walked back down the path, and I went with not the most patience in the world. There He was sitting looking at a flowe-:· I said: "Where have you been?" "Look" - He. said: "Look, ~ == you to see the process of this flower as it is closing. I watched as it opened under the light of the Sun and there is a drop of dew in the center of it." I didn't say a thing! And I didn't look at the flower either! Then I said: "When do We eat!" He was so sweet, you never knew anybody so sweet - never was.there ~n all our centuries together any im patience in that boy. I love Him -- LOVE HIM AS MY LIFE! I tell you this story merely to 80 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES show you how.life prepares you when you are going to serve in a harness with another lifestream. Finally, I think we had some food and slept under the stars. I admit I didn't bother with any sleeping gear. I thought if He can look at a flower all day. He can sleep on his back and look at the sky! The last thing I saw as I went to sleep was the face of the Maha Chohan. I said to Him: "Excursion! Hah! This is play time!" And I began to realize that this was no ordinary vacation. Just a ghost of a smile came in His eyes and His face faded out and I fell asleep. Next morning, Kuthumi was up before Me. We were going to be all set that day! But that is the way We proceeded, dear hearts, every bird that sang, every fern that grew, every rock had something under it. Then if there was nothing ori the path, He would be hearing the Music bf the Spheres. Sometimes We seemed to be going BACKWARDS' instead of forward, and every night as I retired, the Face of the Maha Chohan! Then We got into the high country, most of you are not familiar with the paths of Tibet. In this high country one must be very alert for the paths are narrow and the ravines are steep, I would be talking with Him perfectly at peace - He would be gone in the snow! No trace of Him at all. I would go back and dig Him out of some drifts, And do you know He was never hurt, He never fell off -- He just disappeared, We fin ally went to a cave and I said: "Look, We will never find Himalaya unless You buckle down", and He smiled -- and He smiled -- He had that beauti - ful smile and that exquisite golden hair - a most magnificent Being, He said: "We will find Him." And We did, We found Him - yes - BUT I COULDN'T J HEAR A WORD HE SAID, -- Kuthumi remembered every thing that happened. I couJdn't hear a thing - I think I didn't even remember the outline of His body. All the way down that path and back to the Maha Chohan's Retreat I pondered deeply. When We got home, the beloved Maha Chohan was smiling. He said: "You are both wiser men." As We were! He said" "I have a great work for you in the future - together!; I said: "No! No!" He said: "Of course think it over". "It is voluntary but you would be such a marvelous complement one to the other", And I did think it over for five hundred years! All these experiences, dear hearts, are not lightly passed. I remember the day I returned to the Maha Chohan's Presence and I said: "I have thought it over. I shall consider it an honor, an opportunity to render what service You great Master think right". And so We worked and served together and DO SO STILL. Yet even now He enjoys the Music of the Spheres and the song of the bird. Even now the fate of nations and the discipline of the chelas is not. appealing to Him. We found Our place and He has found I hope, in Me a Friend and I have found in Him more than a Brother - I found in Him the sweetness, the sweetness of the Holy Spirit that I needed so much My self, So it is with you, beloved ones, life's ex periences may seem trying, but one day you will stand before Our Lord Maha Chohan one day you will thank Him for whatever excursion you are presently upon. PERSEVERE UNTO THE END, and in that perseverance you will have victory and 82 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES great opportunity. Little did I know as I struggled through that deep snow of that which lay ahead in the shimmering folds of akasha as a possibility if I did not throw them over the cliff enroute. I thank God and the powers of Light that I was able to persevere. Now, much as the Maha Chohan wanted Us to reach the Retreat of Himalaya and receive His instruction~ Himalaya did not take one step out of that Retreat to meet us. Even when We climb ed on the face of that glacier and I'm telling you it was completely smooth, He waited until we reached the APEX OF HIS CONSCIOUSNESS and then we were given the benefit of His radiation. I, unfortunately, did not receive it, but at least I made the effort and built something of endur ance into Myself. You can carry your group through projected consciousness to the various points on the Earth where assistance is needed. When you hear over the Radio or from your newspaper of such a require ment, have certain members of your group ready to respond at a moment's notice and through projected consciousness render the service. There is opportunity every day and the opportun ities are going to become greater, if you have some selected trained people who can be called if necessary at a given moment, and then through projected consciousness enter any specific theater of world crisis. It is a marvelous thing to have a trained group that knows how to release energy and are willing to give of themselves at a mo ments notice, ready to project their conscious ness to any point on the Earth's surface where distress may be. Get yourselves an atlas and a knowledge of geography and learn where these points on the Earth's surface are ahead of time. Some spirits do not like restrictions and I am One of them. How I ever got God-free, only through the mercy of Kwan Yin and the kindness of God Himself! So I feel for you who have re bellious spirits, you do not like change, I can feel for you. I walked that way. I had to learn the Law of Love and balance and submission until one day -- mind -- I received the honor of becoming the Representative of the Will of God -- the greatest SURRENDER in the world, you know -- the great surrender; for I was I think, the greatest trial to the Beloved Maha Chohan and the Host of Heaven. Because of that, I want to make it right THROUGH YOU and to the Earth and to the King of all Kings! Lovely friends, when your path is hard, when your associations are trying, remember ME and know that I tell you in truth that EVERY EX PERIENCE BRINGS GOLD TO THE SOUL WHO IS WISE! And remember, always by your side I stand, re minding you that you have said you are My Friend of Light, and My Cause becomes and EFFECT through you! For your friendship, your cooperation, your loving selves I thank you. When I return to the Maha Chohan I can tell Him I did not frighten you unduly but that We had a happy time together, for that is the harvest I am always told to bring home. 84 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES HOW YOU CAN EXTERNALIZE YOU:CZ GOD PRESENCE - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - by Beloved Paul, The Maha Chohan Dear brothers and sisters, you have come from the heart of God, have chosen to give of your life and light to bring comfort to mankind, to you today on behalf of the great Master WhomI serve, I bring the comfort of His Own great feel ing world. Will you tie the energies of your feeling world into the great aura of the Beloved Cosmic Holy Spirit this day. Will you feel that radiation and that pulsation which is the true, complete divine nature of God, anchoring into the energies of your feeling and then through you passing outward to give comfort to all the life that you contact -- in the elemental King dom, your fellow students, the mighty Devic King dom and then mankind at large? May I say that in the enjoyment of being a conductor of the Cosmic Qualities of the Holy Spirit or any other God Free Being, you in your self find a tremendous accleration in the en ergies of your individual world and in the completion of your divine pattern and plan. So that you may while you remain among the peoples of Earth be no part of their pain, discomfort and disease, but be a contributing factor to conducting and radiating the gifts and powers and qualities of the Kingdom of Heaven; that you may be about your Father's business; that you may have reason for being; and that you may at any moment be utilized by a Master of the God free realms, Who seeing a crisis or an oppor tunity to render assistance to a group of mankind may use the energies of your controlled feeling world as His own, and flashing the flame of -protection, of balance, of sanity, security, of healing through it, handle conditions that other wise on the screen of life might act in a very discordant and unhappy manner. When the Beloved Gabriel spoke to you about living in a state of perpetual Listening Grace, He was prompting you to learn through the con templation of your Heart Flame, how to govern the vibratory action, particularly of that sea of energy which is your feeling world, and which forms for the Ascended Masters a Magnificent Conductor into the energies of people who are disturbed, confused, fearful, frightened or in distress of any kind. Every being who has risen above the masses and who has been of benefit to the Spiritual Hier archy has been such a conductor; has in personal application learned to be the master ~f the vi brations that move through the feeling world and has learned to not allow either the thought or the etheric murmurings from within himself, or the pressures of the foolishness of mankinds to become master of his feelings even for a moment, for whatever intelligence or whatever energy changes the quality of your feeling world and is not in accord with the will and direction of the ,governing intelligence of yourself, is for the moment the master of you. If you relinquish the control, the mastery and the governing power over energies which you drew forth from the heart of God, before the Karmic Board and life will be called upon to render an accounting, and which if impressed discordantly through the energies you have ac cepted from within or without which will be something which must be transmuted, something which is added to the shadows of the planet, 86 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES and something which for the moment makes you no longer a part of that great sea of harmony which is the combined consciousness of the Great White Brotherhood. May I speak to you for a moment about That Consciousness? The Great White Brotherhood of Whom the Lord Gautama is the absolute authority for this Earth, is composed of God Free Beings, Devas, Angels and all the majestic Beings at inner levels, Who when They attained the Ascen sion, or in voluntary relinquishment of God Freedom on other planets, stood before the Karmic Board and offered to remain Gods in exile and to serve the mankind of Earth until every conscious ness was again awakened to Truth, every man and woman restored to their God Estate, princes or princesses in the house of the celestial King of Kings. Each Bei.nq Who belongs to the great August and inner Body contributes the full gathered cosmic momentum of His Own Causal Body to that con sciousness, Every prayer, every aspiration, every bit of energy which has earned the right to rise and become part of the Causal Body is the momentum of the individual which He signs over, you might say, to the Great White Brother hood, which becomes the combined and cooperative property of the entire Brotherhood, on which any single member may draw when need arises. All the Beings in this Ascended Master Court of the Brotherhood share the vibratory action of the thought, the feeling and the general ra diation of every other Member, They are all part of a Celestial Body. Unasoended beings who apply for Membership and who are accepted, also at that time contribute the energies of their Causal Bodies, adding the strength of their light and momentum. The Masters are Free, or any one who has made a vow, to utilize the en ergies of the individual lifestream as their own whensoever occasion arises that there is a need in a certain locality are conductors for the Ascended Masters' energy. They direct the beam of Their energies towards the chela or represent ative of that Brotherhood who is in that local ity. If the energies of the mental body are calm, receptive and listening, if the energies of the emotional body are at peace and radiating good will and harmony, the Master then channels all of the combined powers of the Brotherhood or as much as are required for the assistance through the emotional world, the physical body and the aura of the individual chela and blankets the locality in that blessing, balance, harmony, peace, or healing, whatever the case may be. If, however, when the great Silent Watcher of the continent, the great Silent Watcher of the city, or the Silent Watchers of the local units seeing some great need, then that call, that S. 0. S. to the heart of the Brotherhood for help, and the Brotherhood looks down upon that location and seeking a chela, find the chela's energies in a state of violent emotions, disturbed and distressed, that individual is temporarily cut off from the consciousness of the Brotherhood and the conductor through the world of form is not there. Do you see then, the responsibility which is yours who profess to be focuses of the Great White Brotherhood, who love your fellowman. You who are limited see only a few of the requirements 88 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES of any hour, but yet walking the ways of Earth are guided and guarded carefully by Cosmic Beings Who hope in time of emergency through your en ergies, assistance and protection and balance may be given. May I remind you in all kindness, that it is in times of comparative peace that momentums of balance, of harmony, kindliness must be builded •.••. momentums of energy which can be utilized in times of stress. It is too late when con tinents shake and seas rise, when plagues walk the Earth; it is too late when the fear of the masses, the hysteria of the untrained set into motion the Elemental Kingdom and those great riptides, the like of which you do not remember, begin to play through the atmosphere. Then it is too late to build those momentums. But now in the hearts of these majestic mountains where the strength and radiation of the Devas, the glorious example of the Sun with Its even pres sure, the clarity and purification of the air, the beauty of the grasses and the flowers are all reminders to those of you who get still enough, of the Natural beauty of your being, now is the time to build for those days. You will remember how when the plague walked through England and the Beloved Leto endeavoring to give the assistance found Herself seemingly limited in Her ministration, how the great Divine Director told Her She did not fulfill the activity which it was possible for Her lifestream to ren der. And then how, holding the energies of Her feeling world in absolute peace, She connected with the cosmic currents of the healing light. •.• drew, them forth and stopped that activity, relieved and released those people from that fear and restored that nation and the remaining members of its humanity to health. These things have been. There is coming a time when men and women who have passed the test of humility and whose lips will not divulge the blessing that flows through their aura, when they will be able to carry those healing currents and people touching the hem of their garments find relief and release and never know from whom the blessing flowed, from whom that virtue passed. There are the few, the very few, willing to relinquish "name" and place of service. Through these, beloved Mary, Beloved Jesus, Beloved Leto, Beloved Nada and Kwan Yin, and Others will manifest that activity. Bless your hearts, earnest and sincere indeed. May you come to a place where your loyalty to God is so great that there is nothing that would cause your energies to be qualified in a manner less than that which He Himself would desire, when your spiritual honesty and integrity is such, that every electron that passes into your beating heart is consecrated to Him, and you will not think of using It in word or action, except to widen the borders of His Kingdom. Come with Me for just a moment away from the cares of the outer self. Just enter with Me into that chamber within your own heart, the Secret Place of the Most High! Standing there contem plating the Immortal Threefold Flame which is the garment of your own beautiful Christ Self, just relax in the love of the Presence of God. As your adoration flows to that Presence, remember your body is the Temple within which is the Im mortal Flame of eternal life, within which, seated upon His Golden Throne is the tiny Christ Self made in the Image and Likeness of the Eternal God, 90 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES waiting your adoration, your love, your devotion, the energies of your world through which He may grow and expand until your entire body is filled with that Presence, and the Master Christ burst ing through the flesh stands revealed, the Divine Pattern of your individual identity. The Adoration Flame increases every good thing to which you direct it. Why think you the Immor tal Three-fold Flame within the heart has receded until it is, in the unawakened, about one-six teenth of an inch in height? Why think you the shadows and creations of the world have increased until the entities around the human bodies are larger than the flesh form! Because the atten tion, has not poured to God, but has energized appearances. It is the Law, that which your attention is upon, lives on your life. That which you energize in the secret silent time, through thought, through feeling, through spoken word, through action, that is what grows and manifests and all who run may read! Why has the race come to a point where even that tiny flickering Spark would not have been sustained if it were not for the God-free Beings Who have breathed upon it? Because through free will every man and women is allowed to energize t.hat; which he desires! And that lives and grows for him and is either a garden of paradise or a purgatory. That which is in your world, my children, is living on your life! Will you please now give your Life to this Presence? Will you please now nourish It by adoration and devotion, contemplation of Its living, breathing Presence, reverence for It, respect for Its wishes. Desire to utilize the life which It draws and magnetizes to serve Its purpose in the world of form. What think you keeps the cord, anchored in you? What think you gives you a beating heart? The magnetic Love of the Christ Self, Who keeps the adoration upon the Electronic Presence drawing the electronic light, drawing pure life, giving you, each day primal essence unused - and opportunities to make things right. What have you done with Life, so freely given to you from the hands of this Great One enthroned within your heart, and pressed it into the pleas ures of your day? Ah, come Home, and worship before the altar of your Divinity; press your wea.ry heads against the bosom of the Christ, not in some far distant heaven, not shining in some star. How good, how beautiful is God -- that so CLOSE ha8 He placed Himself, that in your heartbeat, is that Presence, saying to the very few who even bow before It, to the very few whom even ask It for assistance, "My beloved, ALL this you ask I can be, all this and more"! When your adoration, beloved ones, not only in group worship but when your personal adoration becomes the constant activity of your inner most self, this Being will grow, will expand. You will not need words to proclaim it. The Light, ex panding from that ever-increasing Presence, will respond to your life poured into It and will stand as a radiant and blazing aura about you - that all who run may read! Oh, Beloved Infinite Presence of God within these hearts, shining within Thy blazing Taber nacle, within the Holy of Holies, I greet you on behalf of the Great Ascended Brotherhood., and I ask that through these human forms now in dig nity, beauty and mastery You shall come forth and manifest the perfection which You have de signed for them, each one! by Beloved Kwan Yin "I AM" Household that the sanctity DIVINE DIRECTIVES they come into embodiment upon this Planet, not only for the evolution of their own individual ities, but for the assistance which they vowed to give when they appeared before the Lords of Karma seeking an opportunity to re-embody, and in the majority of instances, to become the channels through which they could offer physical embodiment to others. You have all heard of, or experienced, the feeling of warmth and comfort associated with the hearth or fireplace in a home. The true purpose of this focus does not relate to the so-called physical fire, but to the Love which is given forth by a Spiritual Focus of the Sacred Fire. As We have stated, true home life must again come into being upon the Earth, and the time will present itself quickly so that every individual in embodiment will know the Ritual of the Sacred Fire and the sacredness which should accompany the natural activities of birth and transition. Most of you know that, in China in ages past, I had the sacred responsibility of traveling with the Ladies of My Court to the homes in the vicinity of My Temple and bringing, at the time of those visitations, the Blessing of the Sacred Fire of Mercy and Compassion -- leaving in the homes an Ember of that Flame for the family to nourish. This pr-ov.i.ded a visible means by which each one could focus the attention upon that Sacred Fire and become imbued with the under standing and application of the Creative Force which is present in all life. In recent years, one has noticed again many expressions of Oriental Art in the decor of the home. The Members of the Brotherhood at Peking blessing. accepted code of behavior. themselves at do parents offer Why, oh why blessed life- to bring in those Inner Levels DIVINE DIRECTIVES streams and then, when the children appear upon the Screen of Life, shirk their responsibilities to guide and mould and guard those children until maturity? One of the reasons is that a new way of life is coming to this Earth and all the effluvia of the parents and everyone else is coming to the fore for transmutation. Something must be done! Something shall be done to help! I, Kwan Yin, so decree it! Now, for your part in this service, I appeal to all of you to turn your attention to the activities cation and decree or pray to every Being Who has a momentum along these Rays to go into dynamic action to remove the causes and cores of imperfection which are coming to the fore ground, and to replace these with the activities of the Holy Christ Self of every individual in embodiment at this time. Due to the gravity of the situation in the debauchery now expressing, I have brought this to your attention. Do not dwell upon the pres ent conditions but make the calls to Us and visualize every home on the Planet as a place of Light -- with the blessed Spirits of the Home in shining garments - having thrown off the imposed effluvia from their shoulders. Chelas of Light, I shall answer your every Call! May I come as a Guest in your auras to assist you in this hour of great consequence to the Earth's evolution? 96 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES by Beloved Saint Germain Beloved Friends of old, and friends forever - I greet you today, in Love, Faith and Hope .•.• hope for the externalization of the New Age of Freedom, in the near future, through your coop erative efforts with the Spiritual Hierarchy Who are expending every effort permitted by Cos mic Law to comply with the Divine Edict which does state - THE AGE OF FREEDOM IS AT HAND! We require every dedicated chela to whole heartedly cooperate in the externalizing a specific part of the Divine Plan. If all the chelas in all locations of the Planet feel they must do thus and so because it appeals to their vibratory action and they must serve with this lifestream or that one because it is their per sonal joy to do so, the energy which they use in following the dictates of their own conscious ness will have to be made good by some other lifestream who may be taxed to what seems their outer capacity or by one of the Ascended Host Who has sponsored that particular lifestream at inner levels. Now, a man who is planting his garden has an idea which he would like to see manifest for the enhancement of his own personal property and proceeds to take the necessary measures to carry this plan to completion. Just what would happen if someone in passing this gentleman's property thought the bushes or shrubs would look better if differently arranged, and decided to make so bold a move as to inform the owner of his ideas! Well, if the owner of the garden was a gentle man of even temper he might thank the passerby and set to thinking whether the 'intruder' was correct. BUT, in so doing the passerby has plan ted a seed of doubt and the owner thinking about the suggestion might change his plans and the externalization of his original idea would be dissipated and not manifest in its entirety. There is a parallel in Spiritual Service -- when a chela chooses of his own free will to offer his or her services to the Cause of Free dom in the avenue which is compatible to his own vibratory action - beloved ones, please do not interfere with the individual's free will. If he comes to you for advice that is a different matter but do not intrude your ideas as to what he should do. If he is not in the line of en deavor for which he volunteered at Inner Levels, he will either find out for himself and be willing to make the change to the avowed service - or if he does not, he then is responsible to the Cosmic Law for deviating from his true service and will have to make good here on the Earth or at some other assigned destination. The Cosmic Law is one of balance, and each lifestream is required by that Law to make things right! It is the Law that decides whether an individual lifestream is fulfilling his plan, and that is not the prerogative of another as cended lifestream. Give assistance, yes, when invited to do so, but do not venture to unduly influence another lifestream. Let's exercise wisdom in dealing with our fellow trav~lers 01:- The Path - one of the greater parts of wisdom is to be AN EXAMPLE OF THE LAW, then the chela does not have to influence another by 98 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES worded pressure, but through his being the out picturing of perfection and the Godly way of Life, other lifestreams will feel the magnet of loving perfection and request assistance in be coming a similar exponent of the Spiritual Law. The sum and substance of this little talk is that it is wise to assist another lifestream when you are in a position to do so and giv him whatever help requested, but not to inflict any ideas on him which might be stemming from your own outer desires for that individual. CLEAN UP YOUR OWN VEHICLES, by the use of the Violet Transmuting Flame! Invoke that Flame of Purification for your fellowman without telling him what you are doing. That is a form of serv ing in the Silence, assisting all life into Spiritual Freedom, without engaging in personal contact regarding the service which you are ren dering. It is a truly dedicated lifestream who does not seek personal credit by saying "I did thus and 'so for that lifestream!" Oh my dear and so loved friends, if We of the Spiritual Hierarchy were always taking credit for what We did for the evolutions of this Earth, and elsewhere, there would be no time remaining for assigned and volunteered service. That is not the way of God -- We must all love all life everywhere, and when the chela realizes the one ness of all life and a·llows the Christ Self to be the Directing Intelligence of his allotted energy, we will be proceeding into the Unity of all life. That Unity does not mean uniformity of all action, but a realization of the MOTIVA TING POWER behind all action, and the balanced performance of individuals on ALL SEVEN RAYS. But, before this can be accomplished there is much, much debris to be cleaned up in the vehicles of the chelas as well as the individuals who have not been sufficiently illumined in the outer consciousness to follow the Teachings of the New Age. We of the Spiritual Hierarchy are serving diligently at Inner Levels with the lifestreams when they are out of the body during sleep, or through transition, to train them in an endeavor to assist them to bring back the memory of this training when they are in embodiment. When a conscious recollection of the Godly way of life as explained to them at Inner Levels is carried into their waking consciousness, 8reat advance ment will have been made and no persuasion will be required to have them accept the Spiritual Law. t I I l' We require your cooperation in this endeavor by your constant Callsfortheir Divine Illumin ation and your own, but the receptivity of ~he fulness of the Teaching of the New Age must be preceded by PURIFICATION! Would that you all loved the Violet Fire as do the Ascended Host of Light, and put that mighty process of transmutation into action not just now and again, but daily, hourly, if possible. Blessed and dear ones of My Heart, it is be cause I love you that I come to you in friend ship to invite, and invoke,. you to impregnate your feelings with the KNOWING that this is the NEW AND PERMANENT AGE OF FREEDOM, and before it can manifest in Its Full Perfection and Glory, transmutation of imperfection, everywhere, must take place, Can I depend on you My friends of old, to be friends FOREVER? 100 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES THE JOY OF SERVICE by Beloved Lord Gautama Oh, Thou Omnipotent Supreme Source of All Life, I send My obeisant love to Thee whose gracious goodness has bestowed upon Me the Gift of Life! To that Life which flows through these children, chelas of the Ascended Host of Light, I do humbly bow. Beloved Ones, cells in the Body of The Father, I, Gautama, come this day to bring you My Love and the momentum of the enlightenment which is Mine, attained through constant, dedicated pur pose to becoming consciously ONE with the Fa ther, and in so doing, with all life. Blessed ones, once you are aware, in con sciousness and feeling, of the unity of all, that there is no separation in the Universe, except through the wall or barrier of your own making, in that developed and sustained con sciousness you shall experience the ecstasy which We of the Ascended Host of Light enjoy. In using the word 'enjoy' I wish to convey that which is a true possession of the Enlightened Ones, a knowing feeling with which one is en dowed, when such an one lays his life upon the Altar of Dedicated Service. Oh, the privilege of serving, for in that blessing which flows from one's being, is that one expanding the Light which they have drawn forth through illumined obedience. This feeling is not something which is the product of human, restrained will, but the exal tation of being which is truly the most prized i possession which all should seek to obtain, and upon obtaining, nurture and BE that blessing to all life, in every thought, word, deed or action. Once accomplished, oh children of Light, you shall know the privilege of which I speak. Oh, the mystic Month of May, when there are abundant manifestations to stimulate the con sciousness of the chela through the attainment which their Brothers on the Path have experi enced, and in that attainment have added to the momentum of Those Who have preceded Them. We, Who have worn bodies of flesh and experienced the trials and tribulations which attend the unascended ones, having preceded you, offer Our who but ask for Our assistance. You are in an unprecedented Era, when, through the Grace of the Cosmic Law, are offered more than ordinary assistance in developing the Qualities of your own lifestreams, to lend the virtue of your beings to the forward push of the Solar System. Blessed and beloved children of The Father, We have come these many years and have talked and talked about the Cosmic Scheme in which the Planets must move in their destined orbits. Ponder that which I say, for though We love you, as We do all life, there are limitations placed upon the extent of the help which We are permit ted, by the Merciful Law, to give you. By this time the chelas should have reached the point where they should let go of the imperfect trea sures, so-to-speak, which they have cradled in their bosoms and the reluctance of parting there with. I do not imply this to be the rule in all cases, for many, many are the willing chelas who actually KNOW what it is to experience the glo-. rious inner life which is theirs, having parted 102 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES company with most of their imperfection. To those beloved ones who are yet experiencing the recoil of the imperfect causes which they have set up through centuries of living in outer or worldly ways in their pursuit of so-called happiness, I can but say the Sacred Fire of :Mercy and Compassion in your Heart just awaits your constant invocation and use to free you o: all that is not of The Christ. When once you know that the Sacred Fire, the Violet Flame, can free you of all the imperfect energies which you have harvested, but not discarded, through all your incarnations, you will experience the joy of which I speak, because when you become cen tered in this Purifying Fire all the energy is sanctified and purified and returns to your own Cosmic Storehouse, your Causal Body, for the nrichment of all life, in and out of embodiment. Truly, the Law of the Circle is merciful when once understood, for there is no permanence in imperfection, all energy must and does return to Lhe original state whence it proceeded from The Father, the consummate masterwork of the All Pervading One! Center yourselves in the Sacred Chamber of Ch r Lst within, and through the privileged use of thr VLolet Transmuting Flame set your own house in order, and in so doing, you must first FORGIVE /\LL LIFE! How many have done this? Wise is the <'ii<'l,t who recognizes this admonition, and pro < 'Pl'dH l o follow it through! In this becoming c:od- in-action in all you do, shall you experience t 1i,, joys of serving in the Kingdom of The Gods! I enfold you in the knowing Love of Beloved Lord Jesus, Whose Ascension you honor, and in the Momentum of My Own Enlightenment, and shall joyously await the exaltation of spirit which is soon to be yours, in obedience. KUTHUMI says: "As you are about your Fa ther's Business, tell no man. Thus you will avoid the re bellions of the outer selves of others which is a vibra tory action of darkness and which would defeat your pur pose. Every chela can perform those acts, speak those words, radiate those feelings in his own world which make the individuals around him happier and more harmonious, Wise is. the chela who renders this service unostentatiously and thus becomes the Cosmic "torch" that kindles the sparks in his fellowmen without ac knowledgement and acclaim." Sanat Kumara! Sanat Kumara! We love You! We thank You! Love and Perfection; A Lord of Flame. Sanat Kumara! Sanat Kumara! Sanat Kumara! Sanat Kumara! Sanat Kumara! Sanat Kumara! Sanat Kumara! - we Love You, Dear! (repeat at least three times - preferably seven) DIVINE DIRECTIVES THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD . by Beloved Sanat Kumara My beloved children, today I bring to you the fullness of My love; that love which has cradled the Flame within your heart for millions and millions of years; that love which has breathed into the Immortal Spark within your heart, sus taining your individual identity ever since I was privileged to enter into Shamballa and become for you "The Light of the World"! Beloved ones, long has been your journeY ~nd long has been My exile! Now We see the culmin ation of both victory through love -- your re suming your rightful estate as beautiful Gods and Goddesses, Master Presence of Light, and I to return to that Home I love so well -- to My beloved Venus; to My people; to the Sun of My System --- all because you have chosen to free Me of this --- My Exile! You hold My ransom within your blessed hearts! You have brought wiilingly the Flaming Presence of your own Di vinity which abides within the Chalice of your own heart and have offered It upon the Altar of Life, that I might be free! Toyou, I give My gratitude, My gratitude, My gratitude, beloved blessed spirits! You are those who came to Earth with such fire and such promise! you are those who entered the atmosphere of this Earth on a vow of love to be the protectors of Its innocent people; to be"The Light of the world" until they themselves could evolve It. You, too, lost your way! You, too, became enmeshed in the shadows! Now you have heard and answered the call of love and you are walking in the Light, radiating the Light and contributing to the beau tiful aura which is the Light of this world. 106 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES The Rhythm of Life Now, I want you to feel the rhythm of the Immortal Three-fold Flame of Life which is with in your heart, WITHIN THAT RHYTHM, beloved child ren, is every power of the Sacred Fire! Within that rhythm also is your freedom and your mas tery! In the resting of your outer consciousness within the rhythm of that Immortal Flame, you shall become Lords of the Flame yourselves. Masters of the powers of cohesion and expansion; Masters of the activities of centripetal and centrifugal force; Masters of the powers of pre cipitation and etherealization --- for that is the nature of the rhythm of the Flame within your heart. As that Flame draws primal life into Itself, coalescence takes place -- substance, obedient to that Flame, becomes manifest as the precipitated form you desire. As that which you have drawn from the Univer sal comes into the compass of your sphere of in fluence in the expansion of your love and light as you use it to bless life, you complete the rhythm of precipitation and then the expansion of your precipitated gift enriches the Universe. As you draw the instruction of the Master; the words of love and light; the knowledge by which you may set yourself free; you use the power of cohesion and draw the Masters• Presence by love through the power of the Flame. Then, as you utilize the knowledge received; as you work in to the activities of your sphere of influence the blessings of that knowledge through the ex pansion of the works of the Father and instruc tion of the Masters, you complete the rhythm of your being, expanding your own light and the light of the world, Beloved ones, giving and receiving constitute the rhythm of being! This is freedom! The life stream who draws knowledge into itself and coal esces it by the power of magnetization, but who refuses to expand that knowledge to release and to free others --- that individual immediately imprisons life, The lifestream who draws from the Universal substance and energy, accumulating much of this world's goods for himself but who refuses to give and thus expand the substance for the glory of God and the blessing of his fellowman, will also experience contraction and tension, not knowing the full freedom of the rhythm of being! For example: the individual who draws the breath of life and does not release that breath again in an outflow of energy, will soon cease to exist in this physical appearance world. Everything in the Universal which is Immortal, exists on rhythm! I want you to feel that rhythm which is within the Flame of your life, The drawing from any place in the Universe of any God Intelligence Who can help you in your in dividual service or in your desire to overcome the limitations of this world, is within the magnetizing power of your Flame! As you draw from Those Beings that intelligence, that bless ing, that "sweet anointing from above", it enters into your consciousness and world. However, REMEMBER THE EXPANSION which is the other half of the rhythm of that Flame and utilize it well! Wise is the man who realizes the rhythm of life! We Who stand within the heart of the Un iversal with Our attention turned ever toward God, would not seek to draw even life itself did We not know and use the rhythm of the Flame 108 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES to expand that life to bless the Universal, So must it be with you, in that magnificent balanc ing of your own individual Flame. When first you came to this planet Earth, the glorious Presence of God within the Three-fold Flame filled the entire form which you then wore, That Immortal Flame ( the garment of the Presence) was visible to the physical sight of all men at that time, Through the rhythm of that Flame, you were able t0 draw from Universal Light any form you desired, and by the magnetic power of the coalescing action of the Flame, you could design and precipitate food, clothingt shelter, lovely Temples, or whatever was the requirement of the moment. Then, through the power of your feelings which energized your thought-forms, there was manifest instantly that which was re quired to make and keep you happy, All of that which you drew forth was used for the good of the whole. Mankind moved in that rhythm of life; that natural expansion and contraction; the drawing forth of the blessings of the Kingdom. Every man, woman and child was then "about the Father's business", All were interested only in widening the borders of the Kingdom, by coalesc ing into form the Divine Ideas which passed from the "I AM" Presence of each individual into his outer consciousness through the Silver Cord, Each lifestu~am was like a fountain, It drew the new ideas from the Presence, coalescing around them the elemental substance which responded instantly to their love and their call, thus manifesting the magnificence of form with which they filled the world, This was the time when the Golden Ages were manifest, where Angels, Go?s and men walked together and there was no veil between! The "curse of Cain" ( labor by the sweat of the brow) distintegration and death were unknown. Those were days of great happiness, beauty and perfection of every kind. We are now about to witness the incoming of a New Age of Perfection in which your blessed selves are again taking part. We are endeavoring to assist you all to nourish that Flame of Divinity and Mastery and to make It expand, In the case of conscious chelas, that Flame has already grown to a point where your inner perception and consciousness has ac cepted the Image and Likeness of your Presence. The small Divine Presence which once filled your entire body, is beginning its expansion again through the upper part of your physical form until one day you will become the Master Presence of life. This small replica of your own Divin ity (as your attention goes to It and as you invite and invoke It to use the energies of your life to produce perfection), will mature and expand in power. As It does so expand, shadows, discordant creations and the maya of human appear ances will decrease. As the "I AM" in you in creases, the discordant creations around you will decrease. Beloved ones, the mathematical precision of the Law of your life is such that I long to get this one point firmly anchored in your conscious ness. The "I AM" Presence of God Who once filled your being, has decreased because you voluntarily chose to take your life and attention from It and place your attention upon the creations of the thought and feeling forms which you saw around you! The Presence of God will again in crease within you as you take your attention away from the discordant creations in your own 110 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES world no matter what they are --- limitations, ill h~alth, inharmony -- all creations that are distasteful to you and to others. When you take primal life (the essence of God) and turn the flow of that life through your attention toward your God Presence often enough, that God within you will stand revealed! You will not have to tell any man where your life is flowing. Each man is an open book in himself. Wherever your life has been directed, the resultant appearances are a manifest expression in your world. Beloved hearts of Light, within you is the Presence of Almighty God! It is the same great Presence of God which I have used to sustain this planet in the Universe. Whatever your mind can conceive; whatever your heart can feel; this Presence of God can do! It says always:"All this I can do, my beloved, and more! " This God Presence must be invited and given opportunity to act for and through you Through that invitation and opportunity to serve you, It Matures and expands. Beloved children, when the Presence of God does anything through you, you are expanding the Light of the World! When the Presence of God issues decrees of perfection, through you, you are expanding the Light of the World! When you allow the intellect and human ego to accept the credit for whatever is accomplished (even silently within yourself), you are then denying the Pres ence of God the courtesy of recognition as the only power that can act! Then you are only adding to the shadows of personality. The man who cuts a cord of wood, acknowledging the Presence of God's energy (life) flowing through his arm, as the power by which he works, expands that power of the Presence of God within him, lighting his aura and lighting the world! The singer who acknowledges God as singing through her, expands the Light of the World! The woman moving about in the daily household tasks, :iCknowledging that it is the Presence of God in her which enables her to make the beds, set the table, or cook the meals, is also filling her aura with and expand ing the Light of the World! The Presence of God, when invoked and acknowledged, always fills the individual aura with Light. Now, you who wish to be "The Light of the War ld," relinquish now in My Name all power you have ever given to others; all power you have ever given to the shadows you have created. Remind yourselves every morning: "I live, move and have my being in the very Presence of God. I cannot lift a finger except by the use of the life of that Presence. I cannot speak a word but for that Presence." Dedicate and consecrate your con scious mind and feeling to remembering that, as you walk, as you speak, as you think, the Pres ence of God within you is endeavoring to widen the borders of God's Kingdom. Then shall I have "Light-bearers in fact! It is so simple a realization and yet within it is your freedom! We Who see with the inner sight the magnif icent Presence of God within the Chalice of your heart, long for the day when you make the great surrender of self to that Presence. It will come more quickly than you think! Until that day, remember, I LOVE YOU for, you are "The Light of the World". As that Presence expands through you; as the Light passes through your body, mind and feelings and as you come into the realization of the natural rhythm of your own Immortal Flame 112 DIVINE. DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES of Life, I shall soon return to My Star, Venus. Yet I shall visit you often in the future, in the fuller freedom that comes from intercourse among those planets whose vibratory action is ONE -- DIVINE LOVE! THE REQUIREMENT OF THE HOUR by Beloved El Morya All great world movements, religions and activ ities ancient and modern, have been inspired by some member of The Great White Brotherhood in cooperation with a spiritually sensitive indi vidual in physical embodiment at the time of its inception. The evolution of the individual God-Identity from infancy to spiritual maturity is the under lying purpose of all life experience. The Great of the God-Will for the Planet Earth and, thru its members, provides the stimulus toward God development for the Planet and Its people thru the release of tremendous Cosmic Forces con sciously directed and sustained in the lower at mosphere where embodied man functions. With the evolution of the race the type of spiritual force requires changes, just as in the growth of nature, the seasons provide the nat ural conditions most beneficial to its prolific expression, You might consider the release of these great Cosmic Outpourings like the playing of a Universal Symphony, each Religion or Activity with its constituents representing one chord ,.; or passage in the Great Whole. To provide channels for the release of these rhythmic pulsations, the Masters have inspired the founding of the various religions and types of worship from the beginning of time, always, designing the ceremonials and beliefs around the spiritual requirements of the Age. The Master chooses those lifestreams who are by nature and inclination best suited to con...: duct the spiritual forces of the particular World Hour, and these people together with Their Spiritual Leader, become a radiating center thru which the Cosmic Forces designed to bless the race flow. This force is absorbed by the souls of men, and when that element is sufficiently provided, a new center of vital forces is pre pared, a new religion instituted, and a different type of lifestream given an opportunity to be come the conductor of world blessing. Thus each religion and faith is a rhythmic part of The Great Symphony, but it is regret table that although the Masters work in perfect harmony, the dispensers and recipients of Their life force are ofttimes unable to recognize the Unity of Purpose behind the many chords of the Universal Song. Were the notes and themes in our musical compositions as unwilling to relin quish their place to the following chords We would experience the same discords in musical expression that man has experienced through re ligious bigotry, intolerance and misunderstanding. The Master Musicians, playing through a.11 the chords on the scene of Modern Spiritual En deavor constantly work toward the blending of the various scores into a harmonious whole and 114 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES the people of Earth who are but a part of the Great Universal Song would do well to emulate them in their individual lives. It is not enough that people become aware of the Living Presence of these Masters who have been made known to them, but they must realize that these Emancipated Ones have dedicated Them- . selves to the redemption of mankind through the awakening of the individual consciousness which will bring liberation from every kind of human limitation, including disease, poverty, wars and yes, ultimately, even death itself. As in all educational activities, it is log ical to assume that there must be cooperation between student and Master. The old saying that -- "God helps him, who helps himself" -- ho.)..ds true in this instance and when man is privileged to be shown God's Divine Plan for the Earth and Its humanity, it would be the part of wisdom for him to enroll under the banner of these Great Benefactors and thus help to promote the speedy evolution of not only himself, but the planet and its inhabitants. The Master Jesus told His disciples nearly two thousand years ago "I have yet many things to say to you, but ye cannot bear them now". The Masters of Wisdom apparently consider that the man of today is mature enough to 'bear' enough of Cosmic Truth as will enable him to open his mind to the more advanced doctrine of the New Day, thus enabling him to step boldly through the Door of Knowledge and Enlightenment into the Glory and Freedom of the prophesied Golden Age, the dawn of which is even now illumining the horizon of this dark world. ) l ( ) I ) The time has arrived, therefore, when it is not sufficient in itself to accept the existence of the Masters of Wisdom; it is not sufficient to gratify the feeling nature in reading and re-reading Their Words; it is not sufficient to invoke the Light to dispel the darkness of human ignorance -- THE REQUIREMENT OF THE. HOUR is to apply what has been taught, not only in recent years, but during the past centuries. THE REQUIREMENT OF THE HOUR is to develop man's latent powers in order to establish a direct and conscious contact with these Divine Teachers. THE REQUIREMENT OF THE HOUR is for man to acquaint himself with the present Activities of the Great White Brotherhood. THE REQUIREMENT OF THE HOUR is for each man to turn within, consciously con tact and connect his outer consciousness with his own Christ Self, thus becoming not only a Receiving, but a Radiating Center to all the life he contacts in his daily living. by The Elohim - Hercules ' ) Greetings Friends of Light, "I AM" He whom you know as Hercules! Why come I into the Earth's atmosphere today? For the very simple reason that there is a great requirement for protection at this time and every Spiritual Focus of Protec tion is being energized, for it is expedient that We do so. Naturally the chelas are the ones to whom We emphasize this fact! I come not to alarm you or to engender the 116 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES negative activity of fear, but to energize your Faith in the All-Power of the Almighty! The acceleration of the activity of Purification of this planet Earth and Her evolutions is a step ped-up vibration which some of you are already experiencing in your own lower vehicles. All the Beings Who are specifically dedicated to cleansing the Planet and Her guests are releas ing and releasing the Flames of Purity and Transmutation toward this accomplishment. would that you could see Lord Michael and the Mighty Astrea descending into the Earth's atmos phere wielding Their Swords of Blue Flame, or tremendous activity of the Violet Transmuting Flame! All the Priests and Priestesses of the Order of Lord Zadkiel are at attention, every moment. There is a rotating activity of great precision of both these Flames as They sweep through the Earth and the astral realm •.. not one period of 60 seconds elapses without this tre mendous release of the Sacred Fire. Think upon that •.•• and be grateful! The Cosmic Law has issued the Fiat that the chaotic conditions prevalent on this Sphere must be transmuted! Lord Serapis Bey and His Legions of the Ascension Flame are in attendance at all times to bring about the ascendancy of this Earth into Her Pure and God-ordained state. The Bro therhood at Luxor have turned that Focus into a colossal Searchlight, as one might say, whose Rays rotate and send forth the activity of the Self of all upon this Planet, charging the Christ Self of the chelas first, and then in lesser degree to everyone upon this Earth. Some of the physical bodies are ready "moaning and groaning' as the saying goes, and those who do not accept this blessing of purifi cation will have to later individually expend more energy in the purification of their lower garments,WITHOUT the added assistance of Luxor t s Holy Light. It is for the purpose of apprising you to be alert at all hours that -I come to you at this time and when you feel the causes and cores being pried loose from their mooring to be grateful. Also, Beloved Mother Mary is giving every assistance the Cosmic Law will permit, in the hope that you will accept this purification and the Truth contained in the Immaculate Concept .. the Divinity, or God, is everywhere and any thing less that is manifesting is through your acceptance of imperfection for yourselves or others. IN THE NAME OF GOD "I AM". I entreat you to hold your tongues and do not use your energy in making statements of an imperfect nature. Do not see any imperfection which may be manifesting in another! NOW - HOW about the little self of your own lifestream which has been coddled through the centuries? Looking upon the Light of your Beings, I do not see anything less than Perfection! Will you not emulate the Cosmic and Ascended Beings and do likewise! You can, you know! "I AM" this day charging and charging and charging all the chelas in THE BRIDGE and other true Spiritual Activities with My Conviction of Faith in God! FEEL IT!!! Energize the feeling of Illumined Faith in God's Power to act through you at all times! DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES I trust, My beloved friends, that you do not deem this instruction stern, but when the Cosmic Law makes a Decree, We do not hesitate to IMME DIATELY put the Edict into action, for We are 'embodied Obedience to the Will of God. To give you a mundane illustration taken from the physical appearance world, •• When there are forecasts of storms in those sections of the Planet where the Nature Kingdom is expressing the Winter Season, the heads of households and others responsible for the nourishment of the bodies quickly take stock of what commodities are on hand to nourish the precious physical bodies and when insufficient, there is much dash ing to the nearest store to get supplies; in all this rushing about, the shelves of the stores are soon emptied by the fear of those who feel there must be nourishment for the body! Well now, living in the physical appearance world, it is expedient that one does have supplies for the sustenance of the vehicles, but I tell you with all the conviction at my command, far more important it is that you have a stockpile or momentum of Faith in God and be prepared, at all times, to use and accept the Flames of Trans mutation and Purification for yourselves and others. PRACTICE, PRACTICE the Principle of the Immaculate Concept so that you will be shining cells in the Diamond Heart of God, as is your destiny! This is ordained for you now •• not in some distant future, and "I AM" the Elohim on the First Ray in the precise steps of Preci pitation and you shall precipitate God Good at all times, for it is My responsibility to im pregnate your consciousness with that fact! Be assured this emphatic instruction which "I AM" privileged to give to you today is in the Spirit of True Divine Love! ACCEPT IT! USE IT! --- It is also your responsibility to the Supreme Source to do so! I shall be watching and awaiting your obedience to the Cosmic Law •• of Love! by Beloved Jesus Hail, thou, come into My Presence! I salute the Christus arisen within your hearts and as you have honored My Birthdate and you have honored My Mother, so I honor the Flaming Presence which is alive within you, expecting and inviting that Presence within you to COME FORTH and render through you those services which I rendered ages ago, and which have been glamorized by the myths of the past and yet which are a challenge to each and every one of you of this day. For every word which I have spoken which has been recorded is Truth and I have said "the things which I have done ye shall do, and greater things". Where are "these greater things?" COME YE FORTH THIS DAY OF LIBERATION and render at least those services which are the powers of instantaneous healing and sustained harmony and the God-gifts of your Divine Nature. You have a Cosmic Name Through the kindness of Almighty God, you have had intercession with the Divine Beings from the Realms of Light throughout this embodiment and those which have gone before. You have been with Me on Earth, and you have been with Me between 120 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES embodiments and you know that although "I AM" honored as being the Gentle Shepherd, I, too, have the fire and authority to command energy to ACT in a perfect manner! such energy I re quest now! What is the purpose of your being? To con trol the energy which is loaned to you by God, to qualify it and to send it forth through all of your lower vehicles and then to utilize it and project God-energy with the constructive quality required through the authority of Myself and your own "I AM" Presence to bring perfec tion where imperfection has been! I had told the disciples centuries ago "whatsoever ye shall ask in My Name, it shall be done unto you". I repeat that again, again and again! You, too, have a Cosmic Name, a Cosmic Mis sion, a Cosmic purpose of accomplishment and that is in the efficacy of learning the control of the vibratory action of God-energy or God-life. Think you that if We Who were among those drawn forth in Galilee to render that service had not control of all of the energies of Our Own Vehicles, that We could control the energies of those around Us, those who sought to destory the Plan of Perfection; those who desired, through temp tations which you will never meet, to stir the energies of My Feeling World of My Thoughts, My Etheric Consciousness or My Flesh Form. You are required to do as much, If you are constantly bombarded by, and you will be if you so allow it, not only tramp thoughts and feelings, words and actions but projected ones, and you have not A POSITIVE AURA which moves more rapidly than that which is directed toward you, IT SHALL BE COME A PART OF YOU, because like becomes like, Which do you wish to be --- A God or a Goddess, or again after ages a human being bent with the frailities which come through the acceptance of human nature? I assume in your hearts that you desire to rise above the vibratory action of imperfection and live in a Realm, even while yet unascended, where you are the Master Control of all energy in, through and around you, Then you have builded for the hour when you require it, that energy you can direct to any person, place, condition or thing which desires or requires assistance. When the fishermen in the boat were sore dis tressed because of the raging sea, where did I receive the Power which stilled the waters? Be cause I had through the assistance of both My Mother and Father, and Lord Divina been taught from Childhood to magnetize Peace and that Peace became a great resevoir and so I said to the waters "Peace be still", And naturally they responded, because there was more energy already drawn around Me qualified with God Peace than all of the turbulence of the sea of Galilee, Mechanical and scientific in the extreme is the Law! Whatever power has the most energy in your own world is the power which will act in emergency particularly. Build, each one of you, those Virtues and Qualities so that if it is required of you anyone, to bring Peace or Healing or Resuscitation, you have already more energy than the imperfect appearance. If I had dwelt upon the passing of My Own Father and All of those other blessed ones whom I had known, I should not have had the stockpile of God qualified energy of Life Eternal, which 122 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES was more powerful than the moaning, crying, cur iosity, skepticism and various other qualities of energy in the group, as well as the lethargy of Lazarus. So, INVOKING, all that gathered power and momentum of LIFE EVERLASTING and direct ing it into the heart of his lifestream to render a service, that energy was more powerful than those other qualities of an imperfect nature acting through the people. Lazarus responded and came forth. Everything in this world, on any plane, even in the Ascended Masters Realm, in the Realm of Divinity, is qualified either by GOD POSITIVE EN ERGY or by creations -- positive or otherwise- of imperfections through the misuse of free will. Now you have started upon the pathway Home into the Heart of God, the very first pebble upon your pathway may stub your toe a bit, yet as you draw of that self-mastery in, through and around you, your own light blazing forth through you will be enough to remove a boulder or a mountain. I was a Man Who came to Earth for a Purpose, voluntarily. I chose to show mankind in a time of great darkness what God's destiny for each and everyone of them was to be. Through misinter pretation of The Law, unfortunately, I was set apart as the "Only Begotten Son". I came to bring the Example of Eternal Life, overcoming through the assistance of Divine Beings a very unpleasant experience called death, then had to re-convince My disciples that I lived and moved among them Resurrected, no human power able to touch the God-qualified energies of My Own Life stream. All of these things I had done because the world requires every now and again the Coming of a Perfect One; One Who can fulfill the purpose and represent on the Earth Our Heavenly Father. They call such an One "An Avatar". You will have, of course, the Coming of a Perfect Being representing My Beloved Brother, the Ascended Master Saint Germain. But, in the interim, under tr-e Dispensation of the Cosmic Law, it would be a marvelous thing to have rise up among you your own Godliness to a point where your energies are constantly, and consciously, devoted to One Purpose --- learning to build in the silence, the reservoir of every God Gift and Virtue, and utilizing it as the requirements demands! I will say to you who are not yet without sin, be honest, as honest as you would have to be in the presence of Beloved El morya, as you will have to be as you stand before The Karmic Board. BE HONEST with yourselves as to the quality or those Virtues which are your "weak" points and develop them. It is easy to love those who love you but you must learn to love those who perhaps have disturbed you. No one could have passed through that Initiation of the Crucifixion without know ing what it is to hold control and mastery through every type of ridicule, physical, mental, etheric and emotional and at the end of that period pass the final test, remaining on that cross and then, with the help of the Lord of Life, the Holy Spirit Himself, coming forth and remain ing to ANCHOR the disciples in the Power of Light before I went back to My Father and yours. Have you been whipped in public, with a crown 124 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES of thorns pressed into your brow? Have you had your garments rent? No! Those things which hap pened to you in this embodiment are very slight as to those experiences through which I, volun tarily, passed to show that the Son of God was the Master of the energy of His World, Thus I was able to stand before Pilate Himself and when he said unto me "Hearest Thou not how many things they witness against Thee?" And I answered him never a word, for he had no power over My Life or My departure, and no human being has power over your life and your departure, except your own "I AM" Presence, Holy Christ Flame and your Divine Sponsor. Accept that not only for yourself but as I speak it into the ethers, I SPEAK OF LIFE ETERNAL through the controlled energy and power of One Who has experienced every type of energy which was less than perfection catapulted at Him and Who has come forth VICTORIOUS! What One has done, many shall do! We are late, beloved ones! Late, by thousands of years, The next avatar was due long since, yet came He not because of the recalcitrance of the human race and her attendant evolutions, Now in the Great Tetons there are gathered together around the Hierarchs, Beloved Lanto and Confucius, many shining Beings from the Hearts of Alpha and Omega and All the Suns of the System. The Great Karmic Board is already in session, The Beloved Lady Portia, Kwan Yin and the Others. Mankind has opportunity unparalleled to walk and talk with the Master of their choice, and you have opportunity TO BECOME GOD IN ACTION! When I say that affirmation, it was ofttimes required to release power through the spoken word to shatter the creations of imperfection, but in wisdom's way ofttimes the service can be rendered in the silence, Those of you who have loved Me thousands of years, thought a good deal about Me this Holy Season, are definitely connected with My world experience, PREPARE YOU TO BECOME AND REMAIN A GOD EXPRESSION, ABLE TO USE THAT GOD-LIFE AS OF NOW, The moment is NOW! When do you think? I was not told be forehand about any of the experiences from My Baptism in the Jordan on, I had no written scroll: --saying on such and such date You will heal; on such and such date You will raise so and- so. No! But I used My Life magnetizing that God Power and then as each experience came I had already the qualified energy and through the Power of the God acting through Me, I was able to render the assistance, Thus I was not taken unawares. If you have to have a calendar, to advise you when you shall be called, don't ex pect it, but expect through Our Words that We shall require assistance of unascended beings AT ANY MOMENT! NOW SLEEP NO LONGER BUT LIVE AND IN LIVING MAKE BEAUTY A PART OF YOUR BEING, THE MAGNETIC POWER OF LOVE by Beloved Lord Gautama From the smallest living intelligence to Great est Universal Sun, theMagnetic Power of Love is the one activity that knows neither space, time nor barrier, but transcending all form and matter, rushes toward fulfillment of Itself wherever the vibration of Love calls It forth! Truly, Love knows Its Own, and no disguise, no shadow, no form can hide truth and love from Life! 126 DIVINE DIRECTIVES DIVINE DIRECTIVES Long did I meditate upon the Love of God as contrasted with the terrible appearances that afflicted the brothers and sisters who shared with me a place beneath the hot Sun. In My heart I prayed that I might understand the Nature of the Creation Who could sustain and energize such unhappiness. If I, a son of man, could find such pain within My fellowman's distress, it did not seem within the realms of logic to believe that the Supreme Intelligence from Whose Bosom We all came forth could tolerate such in iquities. The battle between My reason, mind and intel lect, My sympathies and My rebellions took many years as Earth count is reckoned before I came to an understanding of the Love of God and His Sweet Design for all His creatures! Until I could look upon the world and all within it and see it as He, in His Love, conceived it and held it still. My entire Life became a dedicated pilgrimage to convey the feeling of God for His Children to those who chose to participate in My joyous realization. After the close of My Earth Life and the completion of the Cycle that followed My Ministry, I was enabled to enter the Deep Heart of the Great Silence, coming forth as you know once each year (at the Wesak Festival) to bring the blessings and benedictions of God to the evolution still walking the Earth. Then, the call for Mercy came so strongly through the Inter-planetary communication system that I was drawn from the Heart of the Silence and, in interest, chose to return to the Earth to see multiplied a hundred fold the desire for Mercy for all Life within the yet bound souls of men. As the magnet draws the Light of the Sun and creates a Flame, so does this deep heart desire for Mercy from the souls of men, draw the Flame of Our Presence, for LOVE CANNOT BE DENIED! I shall endeavor through Lord Divina and Kuthumi to intensify the outpouring of Love Divine through the teachers of the race, those embodied and those yet awaiting embodiment. I shall endeavor to assist you each one, to re membrance of that feeling which you enjoyed in My Presence and which is within the substance of your etheric envelope awaiting invocation to live again for you today! May you know the Ecstacy of the Love which God is -- and which it is My privilege to trans fer to those who choose to love Him. The Bless ings of the God of Love be upon you each One! +++++++ Gautama so dear - come to us here! Flood forth Your love to all men, Teach us to live - help us forgive Help us again and again! Gautama Divine - let Your Light shine, Let all Your Love take command! Show all its worth - hold all the Earth Safely in God's Mighty Hand. Gautama of Peace! Give Earth release Compel all mankind to feel God's Mighty Truth - from early youth God0s LOVE is ALL that is real! 0 Blessed "I AM", We ever shall stand For Eternity. Our Love now ascends; And praising Thy Name, We God•s Truth proclaim. God's Legions so bright; We're grateful to all For answ•ring each call. 0 blest Saint Germain And Thy Violet Flame; Thy Name we'll adore Now and evermore.
