Pearls of Wisdom

Vol. 46  No. 31 - Beloved Mother Mary - August 3, 2003

Become Living Examples in the Sacred Fire of My Son

Return to the Path of Your Immaculate Embrace
of Your Lord and Saviour

There Are No Shortcuts to Salvation

Part 1

I come, your Starry Mother.<1> I come to speak to you of your new birth and of your soul's acceleration unto the sacred fire. The evolution of the soul and the new birth—of this, beloved, I would speak to you.

Understand for a moment and think of your earliest memory, the earliest memory you had as a child or even as a baby. Mark that point in time and now come forward to this hour. Count your blessings. Count your blessings, for all of you have received enlightenment and many of you in very different ways—enlightenment of the Spirit, enlightenment through the I AM Presence, enlightenment through direct contact with an angel, a heavenly being, an ascended master.

This is the day we celebrate when God did give his only begotten Son to the world. And the world truly received him not, and yet this child grew and did wax strong, became wise and moved on, went to India, traveled in the Far East,<2> returned, went through a public ministry, a crucifixion, a resurrection.

Blessed ones, I envision this path for you. It can come in increments but you must desire a new birth. You must see daily that you can put off the old man and put on the new.<3> You can change garments daily but you must decide to do this.

If You Claim It, the Cosmic Cross of White Fire May Burn in You Continuously

If you sit in some dark corner, morose and depressed, you are putting an X over yourself. You are X-ing yourself out instead of making the sign of the cosmic cross of white fire over your chakras, over your being with the knowledge that the meaning of the cosmic cross of white fire is that if you claim it, this white-fire cross may burn in you continuously. As the cross meets (the vertical bar meets the horizontal bar), that is the place of your heart.

Your heart, then, becomes a chalice, and into that chalice you pour intense love. You also pour your sorrows, your sins. But, beloved, if you are in a state of sorrow or in a state of being out of alignment with the laws of God, you know what you must do. You must come to that cross and kiss the cross and know that the fire of my Son is transmitted to you when you in earnest are determined to put behind you the old ways and to believe that the violet fire can consume those records and to also know that if you repeat them again and again, the Great Law may dictate that the violet flame may no longer assist until you have made a demonstration by repeatedly showing yourself able and willing and desirous of transcending yourself.

If the truth were known, beloved, each morning when you awaken you have put off some of the old man and taken on some of the new. That new man is your Christ and your Christhood. I ask you, beloved, to become living examples in the sacred fire of my Son, in the essence of the newborn one. I ask you to take a strong and large step forward each day and put behind you in the violet flame each night that which you have carried as baggage since the days of Atlantis and even back to Lemuria.

You have been told that those in this community have lived long on planet earth. It is true. Those who follow the messengers and the Darjeeling Council and the ascended masters are surely a part of a great mandala. It is a mandala of strength, of brotherhood. It is a mandala whereby each one plays his role according to the 360 degrees of the circle. Each one positions himself and says:

“I can be a world pillar. I shall be a world pillar. And as that world pillar, I will focus on healing. I will focus on successful business, which I sacrifice unto the LORD God.”

What You Give to Others You Must Give as a Cup of Purity

Think of what you are best at; then purify yourself to deliver that art, that talent purely. And remember, beloved, no matter what job you hold, what area of academics or those who fashion with the hands, what you give to others you must give as a cup of purity.

To heal another, whether with alternative cures or by medicine, and yet to pass to another one's own grief, one's own filth, one's own darkness—this is karma-making. If you have a store and you sell goods and someone says, “I will buy this piece of cloth,” and you say, “Well, it is such and such dollars,” and so the person says, “I will take it,” when you sell that piece of cloth, give it charged with light. For, beloved, then you are never indebted to those whom you serve.

Therefore when you do for anyone, see the pure crystal stream descending from your I AM Presence, descending through your Holy Christ Self, descending to your heart of hearts. Let the stream be clear as crystal and know empowerment.

I, Mary, must speak sternly to my own, for some of you are backsliding, rationalizing this or that when you know certain activities are not acceptable in the sight of God. You lose ground, beloved. And because you know the Path, you must realize that when you knowingly cross the line of right and wrong, you have greater karma than the fellow down the street who has no knowledge, truly, of what is the plumb line of truth or error.

Thus, I speak of responsibility. Joseph and I took responsibility in the care of this avatar, our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. We took responsibility. We listened to the wise men and to the angel and we fled. And Herod had ordered the slaying of all the firstborn male babies and there was a tumult in those days; and thus we followed the warning and we went into Egypt. And one day God did call out of Egypt his Son,<4> and that Son has gone forth to lighten your heart, to sponsor you, to give you what you have needed in hours of immense burden and grief.

Your Immortality Lies Solely in Your Threefold Flame

My Son is always with you. But ye are far from him when you have not achieved resolution with his flame in your heart. I repeat what other masters have told you. Your immortality lies solely in your threefold flame. All else in the physical body can pass away save the light you garner in the chakras, which you retain at inner levels and higher levels should you achieve them.

Think of this, beloved. If all else of you is mortal and the one point of immortality that you have is the threefold flame, then, I say, what will you do to embellish it, to balance it in this cycle of the new birth that I bring to your attention? Will you not amplify love and let it be equal to your devotion to the will of God? Will you not amplify golden illumination's flame? When these are put together, beloved, and they are in balance, you have the white light. And the white light in your heart then does intensify ever more swiftly.

How glad we are to have received the presentation by the children, their teachers and parents.<5> How grateful we are that the world might be reminded that it is better to give than to receive and that this is indeed the joy of Christmas.

Prepare for the Ritual of Soul Retrieval

Soul evolution, then, is a focus, and you will once again have the opportunity during this coming conference to enter into the exercise of soul retrieval conducted by the messenger.<6> Each time you are able to increase the Great Central Sun Magnet in your heart by a balanced threefold flame, by the white fire, so you have a greater magnet to remagnetize to yourself those fragments that are scattered and that you have not drawn back to yourself because you do not have the magnet to hold them.

Think of these fragments as your children, as lost sheep, and you the shepherd going after them. You will have to have a shepherd's crook. You will have to be able to use the stars as a pathway as you search here and there across the galaxies to find portions of yourself which you entrusted to others.

Now, beloved, I ask you to prepare for this ritual of soul retrieval. How shall you prepare for it? You shall call to Alpha and Omega that they might enhance the magnitude, the magnetic quality of your threefold flame that you might have increased power through your connection to your I AM Presence to draw back the elements of self until one day you find that you have achieved the impossible—you have put Humpty-Dumpty back together again.

This is, in fact, what you are doing, beloved. All who are in this octave, save a very few adepts, have fragmented parts, whether in the etheric, mental, physical, material body, the desire body. Yes, beloved, when there are no longer fragments—if they are fragments within or fragments across the galaxies—when you have these elements of selfhood back together again, you will recognize your identity and your stature in God. You will take note of these fragments to see how much karma and weight they have, how much work you must do to accomplish that transmutation. You will understand that you are now builders with the Elohim, seven mighty Elohim, building again with the builders of form.<7>

The Work of the Messenger Is Effective at Inner Levels

This is the meaning of being immortal. Immortality equals wholeness. Why are ye not whole, beloved? Because you do not see wholly; you require another to see for you sometimes. Do not hesitate, then, to go to the altar or to write to the messenger regarding the fundamental problems of being. You may receive a very quick note or a fiat and a prayer that will right your household and right your spine.

Blessed ones, the work of the messenger is highly effective at inner levels. Therefore, when you write a letter and put on paper your concerns, the messenger has but to read it and then to assist you in the retreats, out of the body at night.<8> And if you have not had a perfect healing or a perfect resolution, write again. But expect the answer in the etheric octave and in the retreats. I tell you, beloved, our Two Witnesses will never fail you when you ask for a call, though it may not come directly in the physical. You then, beloved, come to the understanding of your soul's evolution.

Balance the Threefold Flame: Wherever the Weakness Is, Concentrate upon It for Healing

I desire to hear the intense fire of your heart. I desire to hear the crackling of the flames. I desire you to meditate upon your heart, on the heart chakra and on the threefold flame. I desire, beloved, that you understand that nothing is more important than the balancing of the threefold flame.

You are students of long standing. I need not tell you that under the first ray you, then, are able to build; you are able to take command of yourself, to direct others. I needn't tell you that without the [balanced] threefold flame—the pink plume and the yellow [as well as the blue]—this blue plume will be out of whack. So, beloved, wherever the weakness is, concentrate upon it. This is for healing.

When you fight the battle of Armageddon with the legions of light and go after the aliens and fallen angels, you summon all that is best, that is strong, that is courageous within you, whatever it may be. This do, beloved. And in those moments when you can apply training, books, advisers to show you how to make the first ray work for you and not offend others by its power, so you will gain.

When you have the balance in your being, I can tell you, beloved, you will have a state of mind that is sublime and at peace. You will always be one with your Holy Christ Self. And day by day as you hold that balance for yourself and others, increments of my Son's heart shall be part of your heart until one day you shall know that you have fully the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

“The Summit Lighthouse Sheds Its Radiance o’er All the World to Manifest as Pearls of Wisdom.”

This dictation by Mother Mary was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood Elizabeth Clare Prophet during the Christmas Eve Candlelight Vigil, December 24, 1995, at the Royal Teton Ranch, Park County, Montana. Part 2 of Mother Mary's dictation is printed in Pearl no. 32, this volume. Throughout these notes, PoW is the abbreviation for Pearls of Wisdom. The publications listed in these notes are Summit University Press publications unless otherwise noted. For ordering information, go to www.summituniversitypress.com.

1. Mother Mary as the Starry Mother. The messenger has described the “starry body” surrounding Mother Mary: “It is like seeing a very intense blue aura with many stars, lesser stars, twinkling sapphires and diamonds. You can see ruby stars and then a major aura of stars framing her form. Those stars are larger and they show the outline of the aura of the Divine Mother. And so she comes as the Starry Mother..

2. Jesus in India and the Far East. See Elizabeth Clare Prophet, The Lost Years of Jesus (includes three independent translations of ancient Buddhist manuscripts that say Jesus traveled to India, Nepal, Ladakh and Tibet, where he was known as Saint Issa).

3. Put off the old man and put on the new. Rom. 6:6; II Cor. 5:17; Eph. 4:22-24; Col. 3:9, 10.

4. Matt. 2:13-21.

5. The theme of the community children's Christmas presentation, “When the Bells Rang,” was giving the gift of the Christ, of something precious and of helping those who are in need.

6. The messenger Elizabeth Clare Prophet conducted Guided Soul Retrieval Meditations at quarterly conferences between the years 1995 and 1998. Currently, the ritual of soul retrieval is conducted at each quarterly conference using the messenger's videotaped meditations. For further teaching on soul retrieval, see El Morya, 1995 PoW, vol. 38, no. 8, pp. 81-82, 85-87; Gautama Buddha, 1995 PoW, vol. 38, no. 21, p. 208; Elizabeth Clare Prophet, 1995 PoW, vol. 38, no. 29, pp. 284, 305-6; Archangel Michael, 1996 PoW, vol. 39, no. 38, pp. 208-9; Saint Germain, 1996 PoW, vol. 39, no. 26, pp. 147-48; Jesus Christ, 1997 PoW, vol. 40, no. 35, pp. 256-57; Djwal Kul, “On the Resolution of the Heart with God,” 2002 PoW, vol. 45, no. 23, pp. 150-51, 151 n. 5, and the accompanying “Radiant Word,” pp. 152-54.

7. The seven mighty Elohim are the builders of form; hence, Elohim is the name of God used in the first verse of the Bible, “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” Serving directly under the Elohim are the four beings of the elements, “the four cosmic forces,” who have dominion over the elementals—gnomes, salamanders, sylphs and undines.

8. The work of the messenger at inner levels. See John the Beloved, April 6, 1996, “Your Tie to Padma Sambhava and to the Chain of Hierarchy Is through the Mantle of the Messenger,” Pearl no. 25, pp. 224-28; 229 n. 5, this volume.
