Be Transformed by the Renewing of Your Mind
That Ye May Prove What Is That Good and Acceptable and Perfect Will of God
We Need the Listening Ear
Ascension Day Address
Seventeenth Anniversary February 26, 1990
The heavens are opened unto you, beloved. May you see through my eyes the throne of God [and] the Lord Christ seated upon his right hand. May you see the Court of the Sacred Fire and hierarchies of Light and angels and saints even yet in the etheric octave.
Heaven is opened. Those who have eyes to see may see the spiral and rungs of Light and thirty-three tiers and that which is above and that which is beneath. Thus, I have descended the stairs [of the octaves], scaling the stars.
I come to you in this hour, beloved, as never before. And yet I tell you that one day we shall have this Mystery School where those who are in it and of it may form a circle of sacredness and oneness that I might speak to you, and others of the ascended host [might speak to you], without concern that there be some among you who by weakness of character or spirit may choose to [go out and] repeat our words to the profane and even to the press.
Blessed hearts, thus you understand that it is a sign of the times and of the age that I may not speak freely to my own. But this too shall pass. For we enter a new day and I have ways of communicating with my own and of sealing the Light and the message.
In this hour, then, of the celebration of my ascent to God, I am grateful to be in your midst. I place my hand, therefore, upon the fractured ones that they might be made whole and no longer feel the need to compromise this Community, to get even, to settle old scores, attacking the Messenger instead of their own dweller-on-the-threshold.
I am with you, beloved, each and every one. And while there is opportunity, I assist those [among you] from the least unto the greatest. For the door has not yet closed and opportunity is to repent, to seek forgiveness, to enter the Holy of holies of thy God and to serve the Light in wholeness and in holiness.
On this anniversary of my victory I have come to stay in an extraordinary way. I place my Electronic Presence with every Keeper of the Flame and defender of the Light and every devotee of the Mother of the World in this state. I make it my purpose, therefore, to seek for your protection, for your sustaining grace, for your cutting through and arriving at El Morya’s time line....
And now it is a day of opportunity to bring forth Light, to bring forth sons of God who shall be given the opportunity to restore earth to her natural magnificence. You are in the moment of transition wherein God has placed a single drop of golden holy oil and angels of initiation, precise, have dropped upon the crown chakra that single drop of holy oil. And the dried-up chakra begins to have Life and Light from the Sun, begins to unfold. And thus you have, as it were, an antenna that is able to receive Light from the Great Central Sun and wisdom and once again [you] walk the earth as enlightened beings.
Now you must pass through the eye of the needle, beloved, and that is the supreme test for all. You cannot expect another to pass through the eye of the needle for you! You must create the needle and the eye and pass through it yourself. Pity upon those [of you] who expect others to do it for you, for you already come to an hour of reckoning. Yet I shall invoke for you the Divine Helper. Pity upon those who have not heard or listened. We know them well....
I come in this hour for a mighty sealing. I come to seal your chakras with a Holy Communion. I come, beloved, and I represent a high order of saints in heaven, as I am robed in a robe of delicate off-white wool. And I wear a metallic gold rope belt, with sandals. And I do carry my notebook of things I have to tell you this evening....
I hold a book bound at inner levels of the Ashram Notes. <1>And now, in gratitude to all concerned, I say it may be physical and it may be entrusted to your hearts.
I promise you, beloved, that I will impart to you the wine of the Spirit and the bread of Life if you will read these Ashram Notes slowly and offer the rituals in between, seeking not to devour them all at once and [therefore] not digesting them, but understanding that the terse statements and the cups of Light and the words [of Wisdom] are for your Christhood, for a deep foundation in the consciousness of God.
You will assimilate [the Word] as you give devotion through these rituals, as you give your visualizations and as you see yourself truly an outpost of the Divine–as the Light, Light, Light all-glorious flows through you, flows through your chakras, and you direct that Light consciously with the intensity of your inner vision, your mind, your will, the love of your heart and all of your desiring to save souls of Light in any and all octaves.
Never has there been an hour when it has been more necessary for you to keep the Flame for the Lightbearers of earth, as beloved Alpha has told you. <2>...
Some of you remember the story of Igor, whom Mother Mary tutored, who kept the Flame for Mother Russia during the Bolshevik Revolution. <3> Through his heart she did release Light whereby many were spared; and the holocaust of that event was greatly reduced by that single saint who willed to keep the Flame. He was in embodiment, beloved, and did earn his ascension by that service.
You are many and you are called to keep the Flame for planet earth. But specifically are you called to hold the Light for the Lightbearers. This is your mission in the heart of the stupa....
May you not forget, beloved, that harmony is the key not only to your victory but to the victory of many on the planet. You cannot direct Light for their salvation if you allow yourself to become [overly] conscious of your own and others’ personalities and to become embroiled in argumentation and discord.
Thus, beloved ones, if you do so, you will compromise your own protection, [that is,] our protection which we would send into your midst. At no time in your entire existence has harmony had a greater import to the future of your soul, your physical life and posterity and the planet as a whole.
Thus, I tell you, everything you have read and learned and heard from the Ascended Masters ought to come before your gaze and pass through your mind. And I say, may you pass your tests with an unmitigated love and fearlessness flame and the determination to be in the flame of God Harmony. This is an initiation in [the God-quality and its perversions on] the six o’clock line in the heart of the earth. It is an initiation of the Divine Mother.
I trust that you will not show the Karmic Board that all of your years in our conferences and services have been wasted for your loss of the lesson to be strong, to be harmonious, to be fruitful and to know that every spare moment must be in prayer, in oneness with God on behalf of all [Lightbearers] upon this planetary home.
For the day shall come when all shall be initiated, beloved; and each individual must find his true levels [of achievement or non, of attainment or non], stripped of all but the garment of the soul. Whether they are in physical embodiment or not, all are stripped. And each one must make his way, [going] on that attainment which he has gained. This is the final exam of the Piscean age.
I took my exams early, beloved, that I might graduate early and bring you to this point of a most possible victory. It was and is necessary for me to be at this level. And I AM in the Presence. I AM in the Holy One of God.
I come in the flame of holiness this night, beloved, the holiness of an inner order of saints, an order of saints who have been at the throne of God and [with] the Lamb [in the midst thereof], who have sung their songs and their praises <4> and who have returned in this hour to be with those saints in embodiment.
If you have never known what holiness is, beloved, may you begin to know it now. May it be the shine upon your face and the Light in your eye. May it be the dedication of your heart and the inclining of the ear to those in need. May holiness be honor and compassion. May it be forgiveness. May it also be the sternness that rebukes the dalliance of those who do nothing and expect others to do for them. But may it also be a softening that their babes might be borne by angels in embodiment.
This is the moment when the true meaning of “Community of the Holy Spirit worldwide” must be experienced and cherished beyond all else. This Community is the ark itself and the strength of the Lord. Your tying in to the strength of this Community must come from an inner strength.
O take your bowl of rice, chew it well and give your “Count-to-Nine Decree” <5> before you allow the telltale sign of discord to erupt. There are enough volcanoes to erupt on planet earth, beloved, without our having to contend with [the eruption of the astral bodies of] our chelas. Take care, therefore, that you exercise restraint and take dominion [over the forces] in this body.
If you are not prepared to this moment, then I say you have no other choice but to take a giant leap across the rapids of the unconscious self. And I will be on the other side with outstretched arms. And I will catch you though the river seem wide and dangerous. I will catch you and then you must conform to my Electronic Presence and Christhood and [yourselves] be “transformed by the renewing of your mind.” <6>
I have come on this day for the renewing of your minds, beloved, that you might be renewed to step into the shoes of your Christhood....
Thus I come to give you that maximum opportunity to be who you are and to make it. I profoundly pray that you will abandon those lesser ways and those out-of-alignment states and with love pursue the holiness of God with your attention upon the Lord, your Mighty I AM Presence.
O beloved, our hearts, our witness, we two together are here to give all of our Love for your victory. It is an hour when you can quaff that drink of victory, when you can make it. And it is an hour when by nondecision, indecision or recalcitrance you may make a halfhearted attempt to take that [cup] but [then allow yourself to] dash it in pieces to fulfill your own doubts and fears.
People fail so that they may fulfill their doubts and fears and say, “You see, I told you I couldn’t do it. I told you I wouldn’t be able to do it. [Why did you make me try?]” Thus, as false prophets they accurately predict their demise. Let this not be, beloved. Sense the will of our loving. Sense the determination of our loving you. Sense the reality of our caring, and respond. O respond, beloved, and know the holiness of the Lord in your temples, in your minds!
What a wondrous temple God has created for your soul! Let, then, your heart merge with ours. For we are here for one purpose, to see you through to the finish and to the opening of the door to the New Day.
Steel the mind. Steel the mind, beloved!
There is no room for any other thought than this:
|
|
I will live. |
This, then, is the promise I have made to you, some in one lifetime, some in another. To some it is an ancient promise, for our paths have not crossed [in recent centuries]; our karmic paths have taken us each one in opposite directions. To some the promise was given more recently. But I have promised to be with you and to help you. I am come as the Divine Helper. Now I say, do it and I will do it through you. If you do not do it, I can do nothing through you. This is the physical test of the physical octave in the physical sign of Pisces. And you have been preparing to it for long centuries.
I am proud of many of you; for you have found the momentum of perpetual service, perpetual prayer, <10> perpetual meditation. You have found it under the exigencies of the hour. You have found the fire, beloved. Some of you had lost the fire and you found it again. Eureka!
Yes, beloved, these are the tests that chelas are made of. These are the tests that Gurus give when they say, “We have some who are ready. If we turn the screws, the lily of the heart will unfold and the threefold flame, whoosh! and the Holy Spirit and the breath and the kindling fire and once again the Flame is restored.” Some lost the Flame thousands of years ago and now are finding it truly in the fire–truly in the fire of the Word and the Work, which are no longer two but one.
Now, my beloved, go forth in fearlessness flame. Fear, doubt, unbelief and death are unreal and I banish them in the name of the Vajrasattva <11>this night!
Come and receive now Holy Communion. Let our servers bring it forward.
If you hear my Beloved speaking to you, listen well; for it will be I, it will be Morya speaking through her. Listen to the words, follow the directions and heed them. For remember I told you that our direct communication to you has been compromised.
Use the rituals [published in the Ashram Notes]. Listen with the heart. We will not fail you, but you must be in your right place. We need the listening ear. We need the listening ear.
I bring to you fire from the altars of God. And I break this bread as I give to you in Christ’s name my Body and my Blood. For truly this is my Body, which is broken for you, and this is my Blood of the Everlasting Gospel. <12>
I give my Life for my sheep gladly. <13> Drink, then, of this my Life essence. Partake of my Body. I come to strengthen and to balance. In the heart of the Lord Christ Jesus I say, I AM Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending. <14>
On this occasion, as in each year prior to the moment and the hour of the reconsecration of my ascension, I journey to the Sun and return again that I might give to you fire for fire. I can give you only that portion [which is the equivalent of] that [which] you already have. Thus, I bring the balance of Spirit that you [who abide] in Matter as the Omega polarity in the Guru-Chela relationship can receive–fire for fire, beloved.
I come, then, with this Holy Communion to complete and make whole that which you yourself have already gained from the altar of heaven. If you desire more of me, beloved, then I say, require of your soul to gather more of thee, more of thee and thy Life and thy Presence, more of the God from the Sun.
The rituals Morya envisioned many years ago will assist you in this process if you take the time to give them with deep prayer and deep meditation. Thus, beloved, come forward to receive now fire for fire from my heart. Then keep mine as your own for the next round when I may give you again myself as our Communion.
Take now and drink. Drink ye all of it. <15> And receive me to your heart that I may assist you to God’s heart. [Holy Communion is served.]
