The Keeping of the City
I Place My Presence in New York
Let There Be a Renewal
There Is No Replacement for Sacrifice
Hope in God!

 

 

Keepers of the Flame of Life on earth, I enter the city!

[41-second standing ovation]

And when I say I enter the city, know this:  I place my Electronic Presence everywhere in the city. For I have determined that it is high time and half a time that my chelas joined me in this city New York, yes, joined me with good regularity in giving the calls whereby we can turn around this Atlantean forcefield and bring about, if you will, a city of Light–yes, a city of Light, which it was before the decline of Atlantis.

Now, beloved ones, I have put myself on the line for New York and for the chelas of New York, and I want to know whether you are going to come forward and take your stand to be that pillar of fire <1> in your city, this city, so that we can work a wonder in our day and in our time and still show the Lords of Karma that we can do it because we together have the “can do” spirit!  [15-second standing ovation]

It may be said that this city presents the greatest challenge of any on earth. Well, in some ways it is true and in some ways it is not true.  For in [many of] the other major cities of the planet I do not have such as you, who know the Law, who can keep the Law, when you will, and can, when you decide to do it, be in your places in your sanctuaries here and in the neighboring areas.

“When you will decide to do it”–that, then, becomes the only question. For I have decided to place myself here and I shall do it, and I shall maintain [my Presence here] as long as there is a body of chelas who will give the sufficiency of calls whereby the alchemy can manifest.

Blessed hearts, once and for all let us mine the diamonds [who are] those lovers of the will of God!  Let us set them free from the burdens [that are] upon them in this very city!  Let us cull them out and see if they can form, then, the great manifestation of the towering skyscraper of their own Light, set [in place] person upon person, line upon line, victory upon victory!

Is it not good to take on the challenge of New York?

[“Yes!”  (13-second standing ovation)]

Won’t you be seated, then.

It has been a number of years since I have visited you and a number of years for my Messenger also. This is an hour when we may try, T-R-Y, and use the formula of alchemy of Saint Germain. <2>  This is an hour when you can call for the creation of the cloud. <3>  This is an hour when you can use all of the tools available to you if you determine, if you make up your mind that this is your objective.

Yes, you have personal responsibilities and a personal path. I do not ask you for all of your time and energy. I simply ask you for some of it, the some of it that is enough to get the job done.

Yes, beloved ones, [the focal] point of this city is the focus of the All-Seeing Eye of God. May you know this and know that that eye is often misused by those who set their sights on material things. And therefore, let the elevation of consciousness come.

I perceive, then, that you do not really know who you are. For if you really knew that you are extensions of Brahman and of the Word in the Beginning with Brahman, you would not hesitate to take on this challenge–if you really knew this when you affirm “that thou art, that I AM, Brahman I AM, my consciousness is Brahman, my Self is Brahman, lo, I AM THAT I AM.” <4>

Really knowing this, because your faces and hearts are sun-kissed by the rays of God, gives you the sense of being the open door through which the hosts of Light may step–step through the veil, part the veil, then consume the veil!  All this the hosts of the Lord and the Mighty Archangels are prepared to do.

What has happened to the Keepers of the Flame?  Have your arms tired of raising the torch as you follow the Goddess of Liberty and the Divine Mother?

I hope not, beloved. Do not let the decades of descending karma and density in the earth make you too dense to attune to the Mind of God and to know, to know by the empowering of your very soul, by the God within you, that your voice can be the instrument for God’s voice. And when God’s voice resounds through you in the Matter cosmos, there is indeed change. And change is necessary from the bottom to the top and the top to the bottom of the economy and the government of this nation.

Pray God that in this hour the people will see to make right choices, will see that there is really only one solution to the problems of a nation and of many nations. The solution is for the people to understand that in secular matters as well as in spiritual there is no replacement for sacrifice.

You sacrifice because others have gone before you to squander the light, the money and to pervert the systems of government and the freedom flame itself. Thus, you are called upon [to sacrifice again] when all of you have so sacrificed before.

There are those on earth who go as they can pay and pay as they go. There are others who never pay at all. They do not bear the price, whether for their mortality or their immortality, for they have no sense of accountability. These are the very ones who have squandered the funds of nations, who manipulate currencies in the currency markets and who skim off the top and pocket what should go back to the people who have labored to produce the real wealth of nations–the real wealth, which is the work of the hand and the mind and the sweat of the brow.

[Some of] those who make money out of other people’s money, beloved ones, are not producing new commodities, new wealth. And thus, for all of the complications of the economic systems in the earth, the fact is that there is a stranglehold upon the people. And the people are the ones who lose–the people who are the common people, the people of God and of Light. This must be turned around!

I summon not only the Keepers of the Flame of New York but the Keepers of the Flame in every city. I am willing to place myself in any city where I am called and where there is a quorum of hearts. This quorum does not go by numbers but by quality of heart, yet there must needs be at least two or three who will come forward.

As we deliberate in the Darjeeling Council, we must say that the people themselves cannot find their way out of the mess that has been made for them by the elite of the fallen angels–yes, the power elite and those who control the money systems of the planet.

Are these money systems in your hands, beloved?  Nay, they are not even in the hands of your own government!  For you well know that the Federal Reserve banks are privately controlled.

Come to a reckoning, then, for there must be an answer that is apart from the tower of Babel <5> they have built. Yes, it is once again the time of Nimrod, yet this time it is the final judgment for [him and for the] many [who have followed him]. Now the people must go around the monolith of the mess [the fallen angels] have made. The people must go around it and with their Christhood, with their embodiment of God, they must confound those who have created the problems in the earth[–and confound their systems].

The confounding is simple. It is by the Spirit of the Lord within you. It defies gravity and logic and the mathematics of this deficit. For it is a deficit of unbalanced karma.

There are some who have never been willing to pay the price, as I have told you. They spend and spend until their time is up. Not so the followers of God. They want to pay their karma daily, their debts, both physical and spiritual. These seek the living God and many become the essence of that God in manifestation. With this people and with the science of the Word, we can yet change the world.

Be careful, then, as the Mother of Christ has told you. <6>  Be careful, then, for these days approaching the elections will try your very hearts and you must come to the deliberation of soul. You must cast your vote whether you like it or not, for to abstain from so doing is to give up your very birthright of freedom.

Therefore do you follow the least obnoxious of the offerings. Wherefore do you choose, beloved?  But choose you must, for one or the other or the other will wind up in the White House and then it will be, all over again, the Ascended Masters and their chelas dealing with the consequences of actions taken by individuals who have not first united their hearts with the heart of God. It is indeed dangerous for a people to be governed by representative government when the representatives no longer embody the flame of freedom, which the Founding Fathers carried in their hearts and dispensed liberally upon the nation.

O beloved ones, this is an hour, if there ever were an hour, for you to come to the realization of the God within you!  For surely, surely you must see, as we see, that only with God is the saving of the nations possible. And man without God–for him nothing is possible. <7>  Things that would be accomplished by the God-man are utterly impossible to the mortal man who has not tied himself to the Infinite One.

Therefore, I AM Morya. I am not unlimited, but I am limited in my actions and my offerings to you by your responses. Others have come before and others will come after me, asking, perhaps imploring–perhaps you will even see the Ascended Masters with their begging bowls, begging the chelas to participate in the greatest experiment and [the greatest] experience of all time:  the saving of the nations. But I tell you, beloved, delay after delay in your decision to be a pillar in the temple of God <8> does, with each hour and day and week and year, make it more difficult for us to intercede in your behalf.

Awake, I say!  Some of you sleep and sleep the slumber that leads to the death of the soul. Awake and recognize that this decade has brought upon you year upon year of the descent of the Dark Cycle into the physical octave. <9>  Therefore a densification comes upon you and we no longer hear the full [decree] sessions as [we did when] hour by hour you [once] kept the flame for the cities.

Let there be a renewal!  Let there be the return to first principles and your point of origin on the Path, when you had that enthusiasm and the “can do” spirit and you did do [your decree work] and you did cause many blessings to descend and many lines of darkness to be cut off.

You have worked and worked hard. What?  Have you wearied in well doing, as the apostle [warned against? <10>  “Ye did run well. Who did hinder you that ye should not obey the Truth?” <11>]

I say, weary not in well doing, as the Lord, too, has spoken. For this wearying will take from you your lawful opportunity [to fulfill the] requirements of the Great Law itself which you must accomplish if you are to enter the gates of the Ascension Temple at the conclusion of this victorious embodiment.

Thus I say, my Presence in this city shall remain thirty-three days beginning this night. <*>  If at the end of that time the response of hearts for whom I have given [myself] is not forthcoming, the Lords of Karma have decreed that I must then withdraw my Presence from this city.

I love this city, too!  I have been here for the great dates. I have been here even at the inauguration of George Washington and his first inaugural address. It is true I was not ascended at that time, yet I was present on the inner planes.

I have witnessed many events in this nation, and I can tell you, the event I do not want to witness is the eventuality of the loss of a city because those who had the torch of Light could not realize the power of that torch in their hands and their God-given ability to turn around the trends.

There are those of you here who love New York with your very life. Yet, beloved, where are you when it comes to the keeping of the city, the keeping of the city?

Yes, we have said, “We seek no continuing city here.” <12>  Yet we seek the continuity of this city until its reason for being is fulfilled. And I tell you, that reason for being has been thwarted many, many times by the moneychangers of New York.

Now is the hour to return this city to its proper position among the cities [of the nations] and for the open door of the retreat, [the Temple of the Sun,] and the heart of Mother Liberty to show what America can accomplish if her Lightbearers will determine to return to the levels of the golden age of Atlantis.

I come to you with a certain nostalgia, for I have known you for many, many years in this life and many embodiments past. I look forward, then, to a clean response from you. By “clean” I mean separating the Real from the Unreal, putting all obligations in their proper perspective.

Thus determine this one thing–that if the Lightbearers cannot accomplish the task and if the city cannot be saved, at least let the Lightbearers be saved.

You may think it is easier to save the Lightbearers than [it is to save] the city itself and you may be right. But I tell you that in your efforts thus far, you have not succeeded by a long shot in contacting and ministering to all Lightbearers who are indeed here and in the greater metropolitan area.

Now I say, Keepers of the Flame, you have begun well. Let us finish the task at hand!

I AM your Morya El and I am with you unto the end of your incarnation. May I also attend your graduation in the halls of Luxor. I am counting on it and I have even designed your graduation announcements that you may send. Now, beloved, see how much I care for you, I love you and I trust the God within you.

May you find yourself in your right place and your right placement in God every hour of the day for the rest of your life. I find it a great joy to contemplate how Keepers of the Flame shall ultimately exercise their free will to be God in action.

I AM always your Morya and I AM here to answer your call as long as that call is based upon the will of God.

My love to you always and always and always.

[38-second standing ovation]

 

 


This dictation by beloved El Morya was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood Elizabeth Clare Prophet on Sunday, October 4, 1992, at the Marriott Marquis in New York. The dictation was part of a special evening with the Messenger. It began with the Messenger’s lecture “How You Can Contact God.”  She gave teaching on the Krishna bhajans and on establishing the tie to God’s heart through devotion and through displacing lesser desires with the desire for God. Her lecture included readings and teachings from Narada’s Way of Divine Love (Narada Bhakti Sutras) by Swami Prabhavananda (2d ed., Madras, India:  Sri Ramakrishna Math, 1986, pp. 1-7, available through Summit University Press, $3.95 plus $1.05 postage). “Questions and Answers with the Messenger” followed El Morya’s dictation. [N.B. Throughout this Pearl, bracketed material denotes words unspoken yet implicit in the dictation, added by the Messenger under El Morya’s direction for clarity in the written word.] Throughout these notes PoW is the abbreviation for Pearls of Wisdom.

There in your heart is the crucible of the eternal essence, the white stone, the elixir and full potency of Life. Alchemists of the sacred fire, here is the sacred cosmic formula:  Theos = God; Rule = Law; You = Being; Theos + Rule + You = God’s law active as Principle within your being (TRY).” See Saint Germain On Alchemy, Book One, p. 99.
