Vol. 37 No. 27 - Beloved Lanello - July 3, 1994

 

FREEDOM 1993
A GLOBAL CONFERENCE DEDICATED TO
Healing the Earth

23
Come Up Higher!

 

 

How you have welcomed me, for I am come into your midst, your Lanello!  But after all, I have never been absent from your midst, beloved:

I AM here!

I AM Lanello and I love you through and through.

[29-second standing ovation]

First and foremost I give thanks and I laud my most gracious staff, who have made this conference possible. These are the stalwart ones who, when there is no one else to do the job, remain and remain and get it done. These are the chelas of El Morya and Lanello!  [34-second standing ovation]

One and all are at their posts at this moment. Thus I would have them come, but they must remain at their posts unto the conclusion of my dictation. But after that, beloved, I would introduce you to each one, that you might know what service they perform so that wherever you are upon the earth you may receive the message, the Teaching, the contact, the tapes, the books and all that makes this Church Universal and Triumphant truly the “Light-house” of the world.

It is indeed The Summit Lighthouse. And each and every one of you is that Lighthouse, a mighty beacon shining through the night, allowing others to follow along the path of that beacon that leads to the Source.

So you who are the chelas of the first order who make up the white fire core of this Community, I speak to you as I spoke to you of old at La Tourelle in Colorado Springs. I speak to you who have recognized your calling to be the strong pillars, the undergirdings, the very foundations of this organization and its roots. So continue to be the shining ones and do not allow discouragement to come your way.

And this day I appeal to you who are the members at large to come for a stay, to take up your place in one of the departments of the Church, especially now that Morya has given his marching orders. I would like to see some among my staff go out on the road two by two, as Jesus sent his disciples. I want them to have a perspective on world need. I want them to contact you and to experience the great gratitude you have for their service as you keep the flame of your bastions of Light here and there in the towns and cities of the earth.

Yes, beloved, there needs to be a changing of the guard that those tending the fields that are white already to the harvest <1> might come and serve at headquarters for a season and learn what chelaship is and not believe those stories about how hard, hard, hard and much too hard it is to serve on the Messenger’s staff.

Well, beloved, have you noticed the Light of the shining ones on my staff?  Do you not envy it just a little bit?

[Congregation responds: “Yes!”  (9-second applause)]

Well, how do you think they got that Light, beloved ones?

Well, I will tell you. They got it by assimilating, instead of rejecting, the fiery chastisements and rebukes as well as the commendations for valor above and beyond the call of duty. They were and are able to take this or that. Moreover, they have learned that the stripping action of the power of the spoken Word releasing El Morya’s instruction or his rebuke is the only way to be divested of that snakeskin of the human consciousness.

Blessed ones, there is something wonderful about the swift and sudden stripping of that human consciousness, which our chief can surely deliver. And his chelas who are here would rather take it now than stretch it out for a decade as many do because they fear the pain and therefore remain in the defensive mode.

Well, the question comes down to:  Do you want chelaship or do you not?

Many of you request chelaship from the Messenger, but the Messenger cannot give it except in a day-to-day walk with you. In other words, you must come into a certain proximity to her within the Community of the Holy Spirit. You must be willing to have your human consciousness challenged and pummeled. You must be prepared to go through those experiences that strip you of the pseudo-self and allow you to come out on top. And everyone else will also come out on top if all parties are willing to let go of the wounded ego and displace it measure by measure with the living Christ and his descent within each one.

If you do not submit your human consciousness to the Great Law of your Being, you may arrive at the gate of higher octaves but you will not be admitted. For if you would not take the initiations of earth, how can we give you the initiations of heaven?

You will not find in the annals of planet earth a mystery school or a Guru-chela relationship that does not involve the chela’s direct encounter with the one that represents the ascended Gurus. You can go only so far in self-correction, for the things that you do not see are the very things that another who has true spiritual attainment and loves you profoundly is able to point out to you and challenge you to remove.

And so, a year ago the call went forth:  Who would be the chela of Alpha and Omega?  Who would be the chela of the Messenger? <2>  Some have written, some have not. But I tell you, those on the path of chelaship move on, and grateful hearts and beautiful hearts around the world are striving to enter in to the corona of the immortals.

And some of you, beloved ones, could use a little proximity to the fires of the Inner Retreat. Yes, you could. For you would feel the warmth of love, the kindness of the Father Morya and of the Mother unveiled in the Blessed Mary and Kuan Yin.

To feel that kindness and to feel that love and to know that correction—this is what builds strength of character and a greater magnanimity of heart that opens the channels for the raising of the sacred fire. And it is this unfolding of the petals of the chakras that qualifies you to go out on the missions on which we will send you.

Thus, staff have a great opportunity for chelaship, but so do you who take your challenges in the world—at your offices, in your professions and in running your Teaching Centers and Study Groups. Your challenges do come daily and I am there with you to amplify your discrimination in making right decisions and exercising righteous judgment.

So call to me, beloved, that I might guide you in the dividing of the Word and the dividing of the way of Light and Darkness that you might also learn to divide the Real from the Unreal. Thus by trial, and not too much error, you may arrive at the place of refined decision making.

How to weigh your options and make right decisions is one of the most important lessons you will learn in Maitreya’s Mystery School:  How to decide what turns to take on the road of life. How to divide right from wrong in a relative universe. How, centered in your Holy Christ Self, to make decisions in weighty and lesser matters that apply to the realm of duality where you live. For, as you may recall, Saint Germain said that before he made his ascension he had made two million right decisions.

How many right decisions have you made in this life and how many wrong decisions have you made?

Well, I bet I know which ones you learned the most from, beloved. So do not be afraid of trial and error. Do not be afraid of the human mistake. Do not become immobilized by it. Move on and make a thousand good decisions, starting with the decision to balance the Light within your chakras.

I come, then, in support of all the good that has gone before. I come to stand at your side and to assist you if you will just make the call to me to open the way for right action. And I can’t help but marvel at the Lightbearers in the earth who move against such formidable odds as those which are written in their karma and yet are unmoved.

There is a quality of Light, a sterling quality of Light, and a golden quality of joy that is emerging in many of you, for you have been tried in the fires of persecution and have been tested by the Lord through the ups and downs of the economy and setbacks here and there.

You have come through.

You have taken a stand.

You have made decisions.

And by experience, you have come up higher. You have even taken that leap in consciousness that El Morya speaks about, wherein you decide to skip a few steps even though it may cost you something later. <3>  You are determined to be at the highest rung.

Therefore I, Lanello, take all of you who are assembled here this day into my arms—all you who would like me to receive you into my arms. And I say to one and all, we do understand the burdens of life and we are here to help you and to uphold you. Only call to me and remember, Lanello is my name!

[33-second standing ovation]

Now the moment has come for my staff, those of you who are within hearing distance, to gather on this platform. For I would present you to this body of Lightbearers, some of whose shining auras are also well noted by me. I am sealing this conference and sealing your hearts, but I remain at the altar to introduce them.

Therefore leave your posts and come, one and all. For I, Lanello, want the whole world to see my beloved sons and daughters. [27-second standing ovation. Staff members gather on the platform with the Messenger. 6-minute standing ovation and “Hip, hip hoorays!”]

I, Lanello, therefore, present to you my sons and daughters and bid you join them here in the Community of the Holy Spirit. Take a stint, take a sabbatical here, and come and see how you also can emerge as the shining ones.

O shining ones of Love and Light, I do seal you in my heart and I bid you, come up higher!  Come to the highest throne of your divinity!

I do present to you, then, these dearest ones, my beloved staff, who make possible this entire Community and its worldwide dissemination of the Teachings of the Ascended Masters.

[53-second standing ovation. The Messenger, staff and congregation sing song 525, “Call upon the Lord!”]
