From a distance, there is Harmony, and it echoes through the land. It's the Voice of Hope, it's the Voice of Peace, it's the Voice of every man.
Count your joys instead of your woes; Count your friends instead of your foes.
Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. by Francis P. Church
You tear apart the baby's rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived could tear apart. Only faith, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond.
America's place in the essential progress of civilization is emphasized as the story unfolds of how our continent was set aside for the great experiment of enlightened self-government. Drawing upon often neglected fragments of history, evidence is presented which indicates that the seeds of this plan for the founding of America were planted one thousand years before the beginning of the Christian era. Whether discussing the symbolism of the Great Seal of the United States or discussing Saint Germain, the "Mysterious Stranger" who swayed the signers of the Declaration of Independence, Manly Palmer Hall shows how the brilliant plan of the ancients, concealed from the common view, has survived to the present day and will continue to function until the Great Work is accomplished.
Humans tend to be unreasonable, illogical and self-centered. LOVE THEM ANYWAY. If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives. DO GOOD ANYWAY. . . .
Evidence points to the existence of a group of wise and illustrious Fratres who assumed the responsibility of publishing and preserving for future generations the choicest of the secret books of the ancients, together with certain other documents which they themselves had prepared. That future members of their fraternity might not only identify these volumes but also immediately note the significant passages, words, chapters, or sections therein, they created a symbolic alphabet of hieroglyphic designs. By means of a certain key and order, the discerning few were thus enabled to find that Wisdom by which a man is "raised" to an Illumined Life.
E. Francis Udny, a Theosophical writer, is of the belief that the Comte de St.-Germain was not the son of Prince R�k�czy of Transylvania, but because of his age could have been none other than the prince himself, who was known to be of a deep philosophic and mystic nature. The same writer believes the Comte de St.-Germain passed through the "philosophic death" as Francis Bacon in 1626, as Fran�ois R�k�czy in 1735, and as Comte de St.-Germain in 1784. He also feels that the Comte de St.-Germain was the famous Comte de Gabalis, and as Count Hompesch was the last Grand Master of the Knights of Malta. It is well known that many members of the European secret societies have feigned death for various purposes.
A humorous but thought-provoking lesson in simple Greek philosophy!
Kathryn Kuhlman Confirmed the Reality of the Ascended Master Teachings — "I decided that this was the time and the place to place myself humbly but firmly before God and ask for proof to be presented to me once and for all about the Ascended Masters."
You may be aware of the various statements by the Ascended Masters in the past that there would be no other Messengers delivering Dictations from the Spiritual Hierarchy other than "these Messengers". This has been understood by "I AM" Students as referring to the Messengers appointed by Beloved Ascended Master Saint Germain in The "I AM" Activity: Guy W. Ballard and Edna Ballard. Jesus in 1936, Rose of Light in 1950, and Mighty Victory in 1958 all made pronouncements through the Ballards on this issue.
Throughout the ages, men and women have been anointed with the sacred task of preserving, protecting and often, "hiding in plain sight", original documents of ancient wisdom, historical archives and the treasures of the advanced civilizations of centuries long passed.
What begins here, ends here, for, at best, this planet is but a temporary abode for us all. It is the schoolroom of the uni�verse to which we come, periodically, to learn how to use Divine Love to create and expand Perfection. In quoting the Law to his disciples, beloved Jesus once said, "Be ye therefore Perfect, even as your Father in Heaven is Perfect!
"It is unfortunate, for the sake of man's more speedy evolution on this planet, that the mission of the Master Jesus has not been more clearly understood by humanity � people for the most part living under the impression that His advent on the Earth was for the purpose of being offered up to the One Universal Father of Life and Love as a sacrifice for the sins of humanity, thereby re�lieving them of all responsibility for their individual use of the Life Forces by which they exist. "
"Throughout his life, Francis Bacon's fondest hope was the creation of a Utopia across the Atlantic, the realization of his New Atlantis in the form of a society of free men, governed by sages and scientists, in which his Freemasonic and Rosicrucian principles would govern the social, political and economic life of the new nation. It was for this reason why, as Lord Chancellor, he took such an active interest in the colonization of America."
"Let there be the beginning of a deeper understanding of our own Life, the most precious Gift in all the universe to each one, and let us find out what we are meant to do with that Life, as God intends. Think on this just a little bit and ask the "Holy Grail" within you, to pour Its Essence of Love and Light into your outer consciousness, teach you all about Itself and make you all It wants you to be."
"The Master Jesus told his disciples nearly two thousand years ago, 'I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.' The Masters of Wisdom apparently consider (as per Their Revelations) 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 too-dark world."
"Through contemplation one can recognize unerringly the Vi�bration of the different Masters. One does not have to jostle with crowds nor provoke the jealousy of other individuals to come into Their Presence. One can sit in the privacy of one's room at any time, think of the Master one desires to contact, and then rise in consciousness and fly like an arrow into His Presence. It is as easy as that!"
"There is always a way pro�vided by the Law of Life, God's Great Goodness and Forgiving Love, to correct every unsatisfactory and imperfect condition. That way lies right within one's physical self. 'BE STILL and know THAT I AM GOD!' No one and no thing can ever be per�manently happy until they do know this, until they know TRUTH, particularly the TRUTH of their own existence � who they are, why they are here, from whence they came, and where they are go�ing. Only the knowledge of THAT TRUTH brings peace and that sense of inner security of which we have spoken, that can never be disturbed by the constant, shifting scenes and conditions of our daily experience."
"In the early ages, as recorded in the Bible, the Angels walked and talked with men at all times, and in the days that are to come, this will again be so."
As many of you have probably noticed there is a current aggressive promotional surge for an �online streaming video� titled "The Secret". "The Secret" is in fact "No Secret". If you want to know "The Secret", simply go to any one of thousands of metaphysical churches around the nation and world.
"Saint Germain has repeatedly stated that the greatest Power the Teachings give the student is the use of DIVINE LOVE! We have been instructed to send DIVINE LOVE as a Presence to go forth and fulfill the necessary action of transmuting darkness, fanaticism, terrorism and selfishness into LIGHT, ILLUMINATION, and LOVE!"
At the present time, the Ascended Masters have anointed Monroe and Carolyn Shearer as Their Messengers to the outside world. As with their predecessors in this Spiritual Office, Monroe and Carolyn have been preparing for this mission for several embodiments.
"The Ascended Masters began Their more overt, public service among humanity in 1875, with the founding of the Theosophical Society. Theosophy was never Buddhist or Hindu per se, but drew upon both Buddhism and Vedanta for the sake of their rich lexicons of spiritual terminology, capable of describing Cosmic Law to a Western world that until then had been broadly ignorant of such matters of deeper spirituality. Theosophy was outwardly founded by Westerners, but was actually prompted and inspired from behind the scenes by Eastern Adepts, and soon came to be based near Madras, India."
"For those who have experienced what it's like to stand in the Radiation of the Ascended Masters, surely you can recall the feeling of the Sacred Fire as Electronic Light, expanding through the cells of your flesh body and accelerating that body, step by step toward the Ascension Current. Can you conceive of going through the balance of this lifetime never again to bask in that Living Fire?"
Saint Germain: "The Sun cannot limit its shining to one beam, nor the Love of God to one human consciousness, no matter how well attuned it may have been to the Vibrations of the Masters. The souls of men are our concern, all men, of all colors, all countries, because from the Flame in their hearts will come the Illumination which will make this Dark Star a Flaming Sun of Freedom."
"What has the future in store for this strange being, born of a breath, of perishable tissue, yet Immortal, with his powers fearful and Divine? What magic will be wrought by him in the end? What is to be his greatest deed, his crowning achievement? "
"We can realize more of who we are in God by placing our God Presence first, last, and always in our attention and in our life. Thus we can gradually decrease the human (limited) consciousness and nature, and increase the Divine (Unlimited) Nature."
"Question number one. Does or does not magnetics (charged particles) affect humans? Question number two. Does or does not magnetics (charged particles) affect earth changes? The answer to both is of course - yes."
"I�ve been a student of the Masters for many years, yet have never heard this church mentioned, so I thought I would share something about it with others. Some will know of the importance of Gorhambury, also known as the White Temple, as the home of Sir Francis Bacon who went on to become the beloved Ascended Master Saint Germain. It does seem in order to consider that in many ways Chiesa di San Sebastiano holds a similar place of importance in the life of Paolo Veronese who became the Ascended Master Paul the Venetian."
When Individualization of Divine Life from out the Great Central Sun takes place, the first activity of the Individualized God Flame, after affirming "I AM" in thought and feeling, is the formation of a Body that is made of a Light Substance that looks like White Fire. For all Eternity a connection (a Lifestream) is maintained by the two Twin Flame Electronic Bodies with the White Fire Body of the Individualized God Flame, forming a "Holy Trinity". There is also an uninterrupted Oneness that is still maintained with the ALLNESS of God.
Master Morya: "The great tragedy of the age has not been the failure of Hierarchy or of Our Former Efforts, but of humanity to accept the proffered Gift of the Emissaries of Light who came to elevate the race into the Christ Consciousness and the planet into an Era of Freedom, Enlightenment, and Peace."
Although she was offered her Ascension at the close of her embodiment as Bernadette, she by her free will chose to come back into embodiment as Carolyn. Currently serving as a Messenger at The Temple of The Presence, Carolyn Shearer again brings forth the Words of beloved Mother Mary - as well as Others of Heaven.
The question is often asked as to whether the Masters, besides contemplation, have places of worship in the Higher Octaves, and do They attend Divine Services. The Maha Chohan and the Nameless One from the Center of the Universe give the answer.
"After the dissolving of the Order of the Round Table and the death of King Arthur, century after century good monks abode in the vicinity of Glastonbury, and tended the Grail in spirit and in good works, and the Spiritual Ethers grew and waxed strong. Because of the continued worship in this holy place, it was thought wise and good by the Powers of Light to establish an Etheric City over the Abbey of Glastonbury, peopled with those who had loved the Christ in life, and who had served Him with their love."
"These lines are penned as we sit by the side of the holy well, in which the Holy Grail was placed by Joseph Arimathea when he visited England after the crucifixion of Jesus. This well is situ�ated in a secluded corner of an old English garden at the foot of what is called 'Chalice Hill'."
By tracing the past to the very beginning, we saw how man began as an Individualized "God Flame" from out the ALLNESS OF THE ONE GOD PRESENCE OF LIFE, and how, by degrees, he reached the stage where, as an Individualized I AM Presence, he was ready for the next step - the beginning of his Cosmic Education in the Seven Spheres and the further development of the Causal Body.
Mighty Beings were called from the Cosmos to supplement the work of the Elohim and make this Planet Earth a hospitable and comfortable place for the Individualized I AM Presences to reside. These Mighty Beings represented Water, Air and Earth; the fourth element - Fire - being provided by the Solar Logoi Themselves. In this article, the Directors of these four elements give us a picture of Their Work and Service and details of Their Own Evolution.
In response to the invitation from the Ascended Master Saint Germain and His students, the Archangels, with Their Angelic Kingdom, have broken their Cosmic silence, for the first time in many thousands of years, and opened the door to Their Realms of Consciousness and Radiation to all those of humanity who choose to accept Their Presence and Their Gifts.
"Until a short time ago, the knowledge of the Sacred Fire was known and taught only in the Retreats of the Ascended Masters throughout the world. The "I AM" Presence of every individual, even the most depraved, desires Perfection for that individual and when you call to the "I AM" Presence "of all mankind" and ask the Violet Flame to blaze through them and forgive their mistakes, it enables that "I AM" Presence to go into action, when perhaps it has been many centuries since it has been called upon and thus given permission to assist that lifestream. "
"One of the many Blessings that Saint Germain has brought and bestowed upon mankind, since His assumption of the Office of Chohan of the Seventh Ray, was the use and practice of "Decrees". Even to Saint Germain Himself, it seems, the true potency of the "Decrees" was not fully recognized, until sometime after it became apparent that He was to represent the Ray of Freedom - the Seventh Ray - in the next two thousand years. It came to Him, as we will see, through the courtesy of the Elohim Arcturus and the Archangel Zadkiel, both of Whom represent the Seventh Ray, one for the Elementals and the other for the Angelic Kingdom."
"There are two main activities of life - the in-breath and the out-breath. In the two activities of breathing you have the magnetization of the Gifts and Powers of the Presence through the in-breath, and the radiation of Its Love, Wisdom and Power through the out-breath. This is the same activity that takes place at Cosmic Levels with regard to Suns, Planets, Systems and Galaxies - all operate on the rhythmic motion of the in-breath and the out-breath."
"Man was no more what he had been and his actions no longer were directed by his own "I AM" Presence. His thoughts, instead of being drawn closer to God, receded away from Him, and his decline, having reached its nadir, in its downward progress, rapidly was leading him to his final annihilation. Only superior help, given by a Cosmic Being, could save him now."
We must not always assume that a man who sees something pertaining to higher planes is necessarily becoming clairvoyant. By clairvoyance, for example, we may undoubtedly see an apparition, but on the other hand there are various other ways in which a man may see or suppose himself to see something which to him would be exactly the same as an apparition.
"For this world is not lonely as it rolls through space, nor confined only to the men bound still to the wheel of births and deaths. The spiritual world interpenetrates the physical, as every religion has declared; Superhuman Beings move amongst us and take their part in the affairs of men."
Beyond human understanding, She is the perfected embodiment of all that is highest and noblest in womanhood. Her heart is filled with love and compassion for all, and while She sees our sins, She does not condemn us. Rather She draws near to enfold us in Her Arms of Love, even while we transgress.
"Love is the cohesive power of the Universe and the most powerful activity in the Cosmos. It is the Power that holds together every electron in every atom that comprises form and it is the one that has furnished for in man the Electronic Form of his Presence."
"During the First, Second and Third Root Races on Earth, and before the coming of the laggards to the Earth, the Ascension, into one's eternal Freedom, was accomplished consciously and as a matter of course."
"The right and the privilege having been granted, Helios and Vesta designed within Their consciousness the size of these Planets, their location, the number of lifestreams that would abide upon each one as human beings would plan a house. They pictured and held that image in Their minds and feelings, expanding it from the heart center of Their Being, into a great sphere of influence."
"You were the Holy Innocents and Primal Life, exquisite, iridescent, flowing into the Immortal Threefold Flame in your heart became the possession of your Selfhood. In this innocence you abode, and out of Primal Life you began to create according to that which you saw around you."
"When the Solar Logoi of a System take Cosmic Initiation and are vested with the power to create a Universe, three evolutionary Intelligences are given an opportunity to develop and mature in there: the Elemental, the Angelic, and the human."
"Three distinct types of Intelligent Life - Angels, Men and Elementals - were to be given opportunity to unfold their God Natures on this small Star, each contributing in some manner to the well-being and progress of the other, and their combined life force was ordained to weave the spiritual bridge to tie the Earth to the Heart of God."
"You have set up causes. Through the Law of the Circle, those causes have returned to you with an accumulated store of similarly qualified energy. If the cause was constructive, certain momentums of power of good developed in your Causal Body. If the cause was destructive, certain weaknesses and momentums of evil registered in your etheric vehicle."
"A Mystery School is a university of the soul, a school for the study of the Mysteries of the Inner Nature of man and of surrounding nature. By understanding these Mysteries, the student perceives his intimate relationship with Divinity, and strives through self-discipline and devotion to become at one with his Inner God."
The story of Valentine's Day begins in the third century with an oppressive Roman emperor and a humble Christian martyr.
Near Tepayac Hill in central Mexico, Juan Diego encountered a beautiful woman surrounded by a ball of Light as bright as the sun and, speaking in his native tongue, the beautiful lady identified herself . . .
"We have each other and we are tied together with others around the world in all faiths who hold the Word dear to their hearts. Nothing and no one can ever diminish the fullness of what we have become spiritually, and we can draw down the Fire as we have been taught to do and stand ensconced in that Fire, men and angels as one."
"Saint Germain once said that in all of His travels throughout Cosmos He had seen many wondrous things but that more wondrous than all of these was the Threefold Flame in the heart of man."
"Three great perils will come upon the Republic. The most fearful is the third, but in this greatest conflict the whole world united shall not prevail against her. Let every child of the Republic learn to live for his God, his land and the Union."
It is the Will of your Divine Source that you possess God's limitless Abundance of every good thing (including money), and use it to expand Christ Perfection everywhere on Earth.
"In short, we must stop thinking our subjective (personal) reality is the objective (universal) reality. This misunderstanding is the cause of much human judgment and that is the consciousness that destroys community."
He was described by His friend Prince Karl von Hesse as "one of the greatest philosophers who ever lived, the Friend of humanity, whose Heart was concerned only with the happiness of others." Intimate and counselor of Kings and Princes, nemesis of deceptive ministers, Rosicrucian, Mason, accredited Messenger of the Masters of Wisdom - the Count de St. Germain worked in Europe for more than a century, faithfully performing the difficult task which had been entrusted to Him.
Fortuna: "The great struggle for mankind to amass wealth is so unnecessary. The beautiful intent of God is to release the fullness of Himself to all who will make the necessary preparation to receive Him."
The dates of Christian holy days are established by past events or by happenings which occurred centuries ago. The Wesak Festival is in recognition of a present living event.
"The eternally fundamental Law of Life is Harmony. It is the foundation principle by which the formless comes into form and, as a condition of the manifestation of ideas into the world of experience, it is imperative."
"Our Lady�s call to conversion and penance, issued at the beginning of the twentieth century, remains timely and urgent today."
"People often mistake opinion for knowledge. Jesus performed miracles because He knew the Spiritual Laws governing such possibilities."
"Bring God and the vibration of the God Presence into your world and it will quickly become the Heaven on Earth that all have long desired. . . . "
"I have been just talking to them some of the time and speaking from my heart about where their lives are going, telling them that God sent them here for a high purpose that they are not fulfilling."
" . . . Know that as the Authority for the Blue Flame of the Will of God and the Protection of the Faithful, We will stand to keep that Faith with you in all areas, regardless of your outer attainment if you will allow us. The Light of God is on your side and on the side of America! Do not think for one moment that America has been weakened by this attack! America has only been strengthened. There will be the great awakening to that which has been revealed by this attack: the areas of vulnerability of the American people. We will see to it that those who can take action immediately know of these vulnerabilities. Students of the Light throughout the Earth, know well that America stands for Freedom and will continue to do so! . . . "
