My beloved children, I welcome you to the heart of God and to the heart of Shamballa. Be still and know that the God Flame within me is the God Flame within you. And where you have lost that flame, I place the mirror image of my own flame in your heart that by that image you might build anew solid foundations out of the flame of the Divine Mother; for therefrom do spring the threefold flames of that divinity from the Beginning.

You who know my heart, know that I am a practical Buddha. And as I hold the office of the Lord of the World, surely I do bring to you the practical understanding of what is taking place in your own psyche, in your soul and mind and heart, in your life, in your karma–what is your position on the Path.

I bring to you as well my spherical awareness of matters pending in the earth. I give you a special sword, beloved, to use to pierce the millions of veils of maya that are a smoke screen for what is really taking place in the earth.

Zarathustra has accompanied me this night and likewise Melchizedek and many Ascended Masters who are adept in the use of the fire of God. And we are lighting fires of rainbow rays in hearts of devotees and in many across the miles of earth. We are seeking to poke holes through the levels of maya with fire and with the sword.

The sword we give is one that you can wield in your finer bodies. And when you use the physical sword of Archangel Michael, this sword shall also be superimposed upon it. Use the sword of the mind, beloved, to assist many in seeing clearly what is and is not reality on planet earth.

As you are now in these moments entering the new year, I must wish you a new year of enlightenment, a new year, yes, of the ode to joy–the joy of enlightenment, the one-pointedness of the desire of the heart desiring God, and truly the compassionate love, which is the means to the granting of all of your hopes and all that faith allows through the action of charity.

Yes, beloved, it is a wondrous thing indeed to enter the new year sensing one’s own maturity, one’s own becoming of age, and certain elements of the Path, parting the way of struggle and opening the New Day for the adept that you have determined to become.

I welcome your letters and so do the Lords of Karma. <1>  We are eager to assist you, to give you more insight, spiritual sight and true vision.

Call upon the powers of your God Presence!  Seek the empowerment of your Christ Self!  And if you have not the good karma to carry these powers, then invoke them in the name of God and ask that your Mighty I AM Presence and Holy Christ Self shall act for you and in your name to right the wrongs of the civilizations of this planet.

There are many inequities in the earth but, beloved, do not make the mistake of thinking that you are powerless to address these. For the power of the Word of God is infinite. The power of the devotion of your heart harnesses that Word. Therefore, the single call of the single devotee can result in the turning around of issues of major proportions that have defied solutions for centuries.

Yes, the Holy Spirit, the Maha Chohan, has come to you and blessed you with great love this night. And you have learned to appreciate how high is the vibration of so great a love and how great must be the inner stillness to receive it. Yet fret not, beloved, for there is no love lost in a cosmos that shall not return to you in its own good cycle, even as you, in the meanwhile, become such a great magnet of comforting love.

Yes, beloved, you live in planes of being. You live in compartments of time and space. But you do know that the permanent atom of your being, the portion of you that is God-Reality, is the all-power of God in manifestation. Therefore, since you make the call in the name of that God-Reality, so understand that it is fulfilled and multiplied by the eternal Word.

Hasten, then, to the altar of God.

Where else shall you hasten to but to the Lord, who has the Word of Life? <2>–to the point of the flame of the sacred fire, there to be at peace, to be willing to let the walls strip you of the nothingness that you need no longer so that you can be the fullness of that somethingness that is the eternal suchness, the Be-ness, yes, even the flame of the mind of Buddha.

See the flame that burns before you <3> and realize that a single flame is a part of the great conflagration of worlds. And the conflagration of worlds has also begun, for this is the signification of the change into the new year. [And it is because] the forces of Light are gaining a great hold in the battle that the conflagration has already started.

A mighty torch has been lit this night by Sanat Kumara and that torch is placed in the sheaves of the earth and in the sheaths of the earth. <4>  Thus, layers are being consumed even as the sword does cut and continue to cut those veils of illusion.

And a fire burning is the fire of God, a sacred fire, a violet flame, if you will–flames in all dimensions and vibrations. Alchemy is taking place. Let it reach your heart. Let it reach your body and your mind.

Yes, beloved, the Holy Spirit will perform a mighty work in you if you place yourself at that point of availability, that point of oneness, that point of the childlike heart, that point of trust, simple trust in God.

Oh, the industriousness of the saints!  Oh, those who have the activity of the Lord and of the Divine Mother!  Yes, action bears much fruit.

Waste no more time in idle chatter. I need that energy, beloved, and so do you.  Many fiats must be given ere the danger is over. And you must continue to know that the enemy never gives up and never concedes your victory.

As El Morya says, take nothing for granted. But determine that your heart in the will of God shall become as steel and more, aye, the diamond of the vajra <5> of the Buddhas. Yes, beloved, such a will and a determination has won many a battle but, of course, the action must thrust through.

Now then, are we not pleased that the Divine Mother in such a stance of the white fire of the wrath of God does come to rescue her children and to defeat the false hierarchy of fallen ones?

Many cosmic moves are being made by our God, and these moves have come about for the return of momentums that have a very wide cycle in the cosmos and that are coming full circle to pass through the earth. Signs and wonders of great glory in the heavens appear even as Darkness and the Dark Ones rage. And the devotees who are in tune with the alchemy of worlds understand this process, oh, so well.

The thoughtform of the year, beloved, is also the Great Tao. But within the Tao are the worlds within worlds of turning, all of the points of manifestation in seed form in dots of Light that shall go forth to become worlds in themselves.

Thus, the manifestation of balance of cosmic forces is the key to the victory in this year and decade and age. When you hold in your heart and body this balance of Light within Light, then know that the power of God that can manifest in you can work wonders beyond your sense of self.

Set aside that sense of self and develop the sense of the God Self. And know, then, that angels of the Lord God of hosts will surely come to you personally, each one. Their means of entry is your settlement with yourself and your God of the imbalances, the injustices and all compromises of the Great Law.

By love you can do this, beloved, for in love you truly have no other desire but God. Your mind may tell you otherwise. The subconscious and unconscious records may scream for recognition. Yet, beloved, in the heart of your being and in the soul unencumbered by the carnal mind, there is that one true love and only that love and only that desiring for God and God and God. And, beloved, that one desiring is the opening of the great stream of Life.

Balance is represented this year in the thoughtform of the scales as well as that of the Great Tao and other symbols that convey to levels of the mind keys to the unconscious that tell the soul that this is truly the year for Divine Justice in every way. Thus those riders, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, are even now bringing forth the judgment that is Divine Justice, which does separate out the soul from the momentums of the Wicked One.

Yes, justice and balance and the Alpha-to-Omega and the in and the out of the divine breath–all these things you must come to know in the temple that God has given you. And there in that temple there does burn the flame of Life.

What do you think?  Do you think God is mocked by the mockery of the Soviets or those out of the West who compromise with them, who have believed the Lie and whose judgment will be just? <6>

God is not mocked!  The true chela is not mocked!  And you will see the turning of many worlds.

But above all, beloved, let the call descend from your God Presence and let the call ascend from your heart to God for defense at every level and for the All-Seeing Eye of God to both quicken the Lightbearer and expose the misery of the miserable ones who have no relenting in their pursuit of war and world domination.

Almost daily the reports come forth that the Soviets, whether separate or together, continue to amass weapons, to build their machines of war and their rockets. Yes, beloved, it is true. The preparations of war are observed by the intelligence sources of the West and by the Brotherhood of Light.

Yet, those who are led by Darkness and not Light in the leadership of this nation and many nations are determined to deny the facts in favor of their own favored image in history. They shall go down in infamy for their betrayal of a world. Small comfort to those who shall experience that compromise unless all rally to the call that Saint Germain has declared [to see to it that there shall be no compromise, but only the cutting of the rope of the betrayers].

Yes, moment by moment the battle is being won. If there is such a thing as “in the nick of time,” beloved, you ought to invoke it. For that will be the nature of the victory, if you indeed have the total victory that we desire for you.

Rest assured that none of you who calls shall be without many legions of angels to do the bidding of the Word of God through you. Rest assured, however, that this victory is in your hands. And we, in one sense of the word, have our hands tied; for we are not the players on the stage of life today as we were yesterday. That role is reserved for you.

Of however small importance you may deem yourself vis-a-vis your fellows and peers, I can assure you that you who have the flame of the altar of God and the power of the spoken Word are truly a part of our bands, having representatives and friends at the courts of heaven. We do everything but do your job for you and we are grateful when we may enter by intercession in answer to your call.

Angels of far-off worlds who serve the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, the Christed ones on the Second Ray of God’s illumination–they are moving toward the earth, beloved; for they have been called to make their appearance for the remainder of the decade. Archangel Jophiel with his beloved consort, Christine, does act as the welcoming committee for these legions.

I cannot even tell you the rejoicing in the earth of the angels of the Second Ray, who now have tenfold their own numbers to reinforce them in all that they must accomplish for the youth of the world, for the enlightenment of the people, for the transfer of knowledge of what is and is not real in the land, for the rescuing of so many from self-ignorance, self-imposed and self-willed.

Blessed hearts, this is the great boon that will make possible the balance of the Tao and of justice and of cosmic forces within you!  It is the assignment to planet earth, for an indefinite number of decades, of these reinforcements of the Second Ray. And, oh, how they are bright and filled with hope!  How they come to enter a world of such ignorance to dispel the five poisons, <7> to introduce those who have an ear to hear and a heart that is ready to the Buddhas of the five secret rays and to the path of the Bodhisattvas!

They come with the great hope with which all of our bands have come to earth, beloved. And we rejoice to see the freshness of their spirits not yet burdened with nor bowed down by so great an assignment on planet earth as the dispelling of ignorance itself.

Have not all of the Buddhas come for that purpose, and the avatars and all to whom you call?

And have you not also come to that purpose? <*>

Yes, to light a candle in the dark where you are.

Glory unto God, beloved, that Alpha and Omega have so responded, that these angels have responded!  And many of them have come and their dispensation has been granted by the very response of many to the call of Omri-Tas and Saint Germain. <8>

They see illumination’s golden flame as a parallel lifeline to that of the violet flame. Thus, beloved, you may rejoice now in such a great boon as this and become a part of Jophiel and Christine’s welcoming committee this night.

Won’t you stand and offer them your blessings?

[Congregation makes a joyful noise unto the Lord.]

May you see, beloved, much illumination coming forth on many matters. This is a time for exposés of all of the cover-ups in the many fields and branches of human knowledge and science and education and medicine and health and so many areas, beloved, which, though they seem to be advanced, are yet in their infancy.

Whatever happens to be your field of endeavor, your calling in life, these angels and their legions of Light can open doors and doorways into octaves unprobed by most of the people in embodiment today. By making contact [with them] through the yellow sphere of golden illumination’s flame of your own Causal Body, you can open doors of retreats and of heaven with these angels.

We are convinced that the Lightbearers in the earth who will respond will become the leaven in the entire Mystical Body of God that will heal the breach in religion and the misunderstanding of one to another and the prejudices and the denial of one to another of that freedom to enter in to the same flame of illumination of the original founders of the world’s major religions.

Think of all the avenues of ignorance whereby the people suffer in mind and heart and body and soul for want of what could be theirs. Think of these angels, beloved, who have such great hope and such oneness in the crown chakra with all other Lightbearers of a cosmos that they should desire to come to assist Saint Germain and you to clear the way for the golden age by that golden flame, yes, the golden age of Aquarius. See how there are some in a cosmos who plan for a golden age even before a victory is won.

Rejoice, beloved, for there is hope, hope in the beginning of this conference and hope in the ending. <9>  Yes, there is hope for each and every one of you and especially if you should truly take to heart and to body the teachings the Messenger has presented. <10>

You know, beloved, it is most dangerous to take and leave, take this and leave that, thinking that sometimes our representative is right and sometimes she is wrong. Beware of this, beloved, and rather seek by a novena to your Holy Christ Self to have your own Christ Mind quickened that you might also better have the discrimination that does not come through the lower mind.

Beloved hearts, the illumination you have received in this lifetime through this activity is a blessing to your soul forever. I, Gautama, commend you to the compassionate heart, that having so great many gifts of salvation [daily], you [may continually] give them away before your pack becomes more filled than that of Santa Claus and you can hardly carry it around.

Give gifts away, beloved, for they fly back to you multiplied many times over!  Oh, in gratitude give of yourself and watch and see how you become the more refined self and the Greater Self!

Oh, such a joy of bequeathing to a world the flame of illumination!  It has been my joy for many aeons, beloved. This day and night may you enter the joy flame of the bodhisattvas, who have made it and are making it on the Path because of their devotion to Kuan Yin and the quality of mercy. In seeking balance of the Tao in your heart and mind, therefore, beloved, remember that to give mercy is to open the door of mercy from God to your heart as never before.

Oh, the merciful heart of Kuan Yin!  Is it not the opening of the way to Amitabha?  And if to Amitabha, then, of course, to all the rest.

Let this be a joyous year, beloved. Let it be the most joyous year of your entire life in all eternity because you have illumination, because you have the promise of balance, because so many angels have come to your world this night and because of a thousand and ten thousand things that you have to be grateful for.

Go forth with joy, beloved, and the “Ode to Joy.”  Let us hear, then, the balance of that piece where we left off when we began. <11>

I hold you to my eternal heart, O beloved, each one of you precious to me. When I take you to my heart, beloved, I impress upon you the imprint of my heart and the message that returns:

“I love you. I love you. I love you.”

I AM with you in a most practical way day by day.

And Love is practical, n’est-ce pas?

Be at peace, beloved. No matter where you are or what you do, peace is the key to the solution of the problem. And I AM that peace with you. Amen, beloved.

 


This dictation by Gautama Buddha was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood Elizabeth Clare Prophet on New Year’s Eve, December 31, 1991, during the six-day conference The Rapture of Divine Love held at the Royal Teton Ranch, Park County, Montana. During a candlelight vigil which began shortly before the dictation, the congregation sang to the Lord of the World and meditated upon a statue of the Buddha superimposed upon scenes from the Inner Retreat. An excerpt from the fourth movement of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony was played as the meditation music before Gautama’s address. Dictation available on 90-min. audiocassette, B92012. [N.B. Throughout this Pearl, bracketed material denotes words unspoken yet implicit in the dictation, added by the Messenger under Gautama Buddha’s direction for clarity in the written word.] Throughout these notes PoW is the abbreviation for Pearls of Wisdom.

*. And have you not also come to [the realization of] that purpose?

1. Letters to the Karmic Board. The Lords of Karma meet at the Royal Teton Retreat biannually, at the turn of the year and at summer solstice, to review petitions from unascended devotees and to grant dispensations for their assistance. Traditionally, students of the Ascended Masters write personal petitions to the Karmic Board on New Year’s Eve and the Fourth of July, requesting dispensations and sponsorship for constructive purposes. In handwritten, sealed letters that are consecrated at the altar and burned, they offer their service upon the altar of God and ask for divine intercession in their personal lives, the Community of the Holy Spirit, the nation and the world. Delivered to the Royal Teton Retreat, the letters are read and acted upon by the Lords of Karma.

2. John 6:68, 69.

3. Throughout Gautama’s dictation, each devotee held a candle lit from the flame on the altar.

4. Sheaves is the plural form of sheaf. Sheaf is defined as “a quantity of the stalks and ears of wheat, rye or other grain bound together.”  The sheaves Gautama is referring to here represent the good wheat, the good rye–in other words, the good seed spoken of by Jesus in his parable of the tares and the wheat (Matt. 13:24-30, 36-43). When Gautama Buddha says “a mighty torch has been lit this night by Sanat Kumara and that torch is placed in the sheaves of the earth,” he is speaking of sheaves as stalks of the Christ consciousness. Therefore, that torch is being placed within the Lightbearers. Sanat Kumara is enfiring with his torch those who carry the vibration of God. The placing of the torch within the sheaf implies the teaching given by Jesus:  “Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone; but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit” (John 12:24). The torch lit and placed in each sheaf is for the ultimate consuming of the sheaf, which is but the shell for the divine spark. This signifies that we must be willing to undergo a certain transformation by fire if we are to awaken in the likeness of God, having the Deathless Solar Body. Sheath is defined as “a case or encasement such as the scabbard of a sword” or “a covering or supporting structure.”  The sheaths of the earth are therefore the protective covering of the entire planet. These sheaths are fine layers of the light of God that are present in the four quadrants of Matter–in the physical earth as well as at the astral, mental and etheric levels. These sheaths of consciousness provide a protecting forcefield to the planet and her people, guarding the components of the ecosystem that are necessary to sustain life. Thus, the mighty torch that has been placed into the sheaves of the earth is also placed into the sheaths–the layers of energy that make up the tangible as well as the intangible earth body. As the torch is placed into these sheaths, certain layers that are contaminated beyond use (or to the level of being negative rather than positive in vibration) are consumed. This occurs as the special sword given to us by Gautama is piercing veils of maya–the sheath of misqualified energy created as a smoke screen by the fallen ones to prevent the Lightbearers from seeing “what is really taking place in the earth,” as Gautama said (see par. 3).

5. Vajra is a Sanskrit word rendered as thunderbolt or diamond; adamantine; that which is hard, impenetrable; that which destroys but is itself indestructible. It is also a scepterlike symbol of the thunderbolt, representing the adamantine nature of Truth. It is taught that the vajra cleaves through ignorance and therefore symbolizes the indestructible nature of the Buddha’s wisdom and the victory of knowledge over illusion.

6. Gal. 6:7; II Thess. 2:8-12.

7. Five poisons. See vol. 35 no. 5, p. 52 n. 3.

8. See 1991 PoW, vol. 34 no. 26. pp. 347-56; no. 65, pp. 739-50.

9. Archeia Hope gave the first dictation of the conference on December 28, 1991 (see pp. 1-4).

10. See Elizabeth Clare Prophet, “How You Can Celebrate Your Immortality Every Day of Your Life”:  1  “The Goal of Taoist Immortality” and  2  “The Yellow Emperor on the Tao of Longevity,” December 28, 1991, on 90-min. audiocassette, A92002. 3  “Masters of the Forces of Yin and Yang,” December 30, 1991, on two 90-min. audiocassettes, A92003. 4  “How You Can Read the History and the Prophecy of Your Health.” Topics include:  “How to Analyze Your Constitution,” “Eating in Balance with Your Environment,” “A Profile of Native Americans Then and Now,” and “A Word of Caution to Pregnant Mothers,” December 31, 1991, on videocassette, 135 min., HP92008

11. “Ode to Joy.” The text of the choral section of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, fourth movement, was adapted from Schiller’s poem “Ode to Joy.”  An excerpt from the fourth movement was played prior to Gautama’s dictation, beginning with the introduction of the movement’s theme and continuing through to the choral section. The playing of the fourth movement was continued following the dictation, beginning with the choral section (“Ode to Joy”) and concluding with the section for tenor solo and chorus.
