Students Who Would Be Made Ready for the Seraphic Hosts Who Are Ready to Become Teachers of Men: Commune at Luxor with Those Higher Intelligences and Savants of God and Enter the Very Fiery Nature of God and of the Divine Symmetry
The nature and identity of God is fire. " ... Our God is a consuming fire."1 The center of the minutest particle of substance is but an electronic ball of fire. Mankind have identified with the flesh; they have not understood the resurrection of consciousness from dead works. The concept of dead works implies that all that men do is a form of subservience to the transitory and carnal nature of man.2
The new and living way of the Spirit that involves the whole man here and now is calculated to bring about a transformation not only in the outer realm of flesh but also in the inward parts of the mind - of consciousness in particular - and an infusion of the vital energies of the Spirit. These have been deterred from manifestation because of the insulative barrier composed of mankind's dense electronic patterns whose absorptive qualities prevent the interpenetrating God flame from passing through the barriers of human thought and misqualified feeling and thus making contact with the God flame within the center of each cell, of each atom, and each electron.
We shall consider then for a moment the subject of cosmic penetrability. One of the qualities of nature which it is vital for men to understand is the quality of protective adaptability whereby nature, when challenged, provides through its myriad manifestations an immediate reaction, or "defense mechanism," on its own behalf. The interplay of these qualities of adaptability and their automatically instituted changes in form and life-waves resulting therefrom, which continually impinge on man's thoughts and feelings, create many strange patterns in the consciousness of mankind that interfere with the original and pristine intentions of God.
The Garden of Paradise, when taken as an allegorical concept, presents another aspect of divine reality. That aspect is the quality of nature to produce at all times beauty, love, and perfection in all of its manifestations which stem from the original God design. Even a mutation, if it is guided by the intelligent spark of the Creator of all life, would endow form with an ascendancy rather than a deterioration factor. Therefore individuals must recognize that it is this same quality of adaptability in nature and in man which, when operating in reverse, builds defenses against the very progressive aspects of the original intent of God. Thus many times individuals do not ascend simply because they have created an inverse order throughout the natural manifestation of themselves, seeking self first and God last.
I think the domain of consciousness can be one of the most deterrent factors to mankind's progress when it is wrongly used. Consciousness is often the product of happenstance molded by environment, but it soon learns to override even its hereditary factors. As each succeeding generation creates a new fashion, retiring some of the old and preserving others of the traditional nature of man, the state of his consciousness becomes, in the main, most destructive because it pursues no cosmic constant but carefully yet haphazardly entertains a multitude of human fashions. The effect of this process upon the consciousness must be considered by the aspirant as he begins to denude himself of the sheaths of grayed mental and emotional substance which, like globs of protoplasm or the hard surface of an alligator, make difficult the penetration of the light.
Consciousness has its own strange forms of protection. The world is iconoclastic, yet it has a multitude of taboos and peevish traditions which it is not disposed to lay aside. Like a room filled with stuffed animals, the average individual who seeks for a renewal of consciousness has many "treasures" and "lingering mortal perceptions," carefully preserved in the storehouse of his memory body, which he finds difficult to cast aside. Suddenly to bring in the great God flame with all of its tremendous power would uproot not only the traditions but also the sanity and balance of individuality.
We prefer, then, that all who would make their ascension recognize the need for renovation, for a cleaning up of the body temple and a complete renewal and purification of the mind/ consciousness. It is best, although it may seem to be a bit difficult, for individuals to decide that they will throw out all of their mortal traditions and pet concepts in order to prepare the way for the coming of the great God consciousness which is able to renew the capacities of the soul and restore the active boundaries of the living temple of God. ("Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?"3
The idea of renewing consciousness is itself causative in creating a desire on the part of mankind to open the windows of the soul to the original purity of the God design. Most men are aware that their personal measurement is almost totally that of a man. They also know that "flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God";4 yet they know that the abundant life, the eternal life of God, was bequeathed to every man as his immortal inheritance.
There is a tendency among men, which is encouraged by the brothers of the shadow and the sons of Belial who masquerade at times as angels of light, to postpone the salvation of the soul to some distant tomorrow or to the life hereafter. This "mañana" which never comes is a furtive attempt on the part of men to excuse their traditional sloth that will not make the necessary adjustment here and now in that era which God has intended them to utilize for their own freedom.
As long as men are in a tunnel of mortal limitation, they cannot behold the valley of Shamballa or the wondrous hills of Shangri-la. They must first emerge from their own darkness and from the cocoon of ignorance into the light of the spiritual Sun behind the sun. The fires of God-regeneration are actually manifestations of the triune nature of God - of faith, hope, and charity; love, wisdom, and power; even of body, soul, and mind. Yet these similitudes including body, mind, and feelings must be purified - cause, effect, record, and memory.
Therefore we begin with the consciousness, and this renovation must admit the fire of the divine idea. The idea of the ascension must be considered as pertinent to the individual lifestream and not something designed wholly for another who may be more spiritually advanced or more capable of executing the will of God. Each soul must consider for himself the value of the love of God that gave the radiance of his only begotten Son unto the Manchild of his heart, in a very personal way.
I, Serapis, say to you, when the consciousness is imbued with the divine nature and that nature penetrates to the very base of that consciousness, it will, like a helium balloon, rise to the highest heavens of thought.
Now must come the penetrability of the divine fire into the emotions. The energy of joy and happiness, which is the great motor of life, must be engaged on behalf of one's self as a manifestation of the Christ consciousness. And last but not least, when mind and feeling have embraced the fire of God and the wondrous essence of his nature, the penetrability of that fire into the physical form - the brain, nerves, muscles, and organs - must come with a view to the elevation and the ascendancy of the whole consciousness. At this stage, healings and releases of tremendous spiritual power may occur to those whom you contact.
The use of the fire of the divine nature and the tangible fire of creation which removes the dross of human thought and feeling from the four lower bodies of man is a must; for if individuals will not consider in their consciousness the possibilities of that which God's life will do unto them, how can they receive the outbreathing of his ineffable love?
In our retreat at Luxor there are periods of meditation when for weeks on end just one of the divine ideas which I have given to you in this dossier is meditated upon consistently for hours and the full complement of its meaning is invoked from the heart of God. I propose, then, that all who receive these instructions shall consider them not as a release designed to be thought upon for a week but as a most precious treasure of our infinite intention for and on behalf of all who would find their way back unto the Father's Home.
Certain spiritual exercises will, in due course of time, develop within your own consciousness as you pursue this course of study to its fullest. After all, the specific exercises and instructions which we give are always derived from the very instruction which I am giving you here, for it is created in the similitude of that which we give at Luxor. There is a little difference, of course, in that instruction which we give at Luxor and that which we give through this spoken, printed medium; and that difference is primarily one of the timbre, or nature, of the students who come here directly.
Those who come to study at Luxor are already dedicated to the idea of mastering life and winning their ascension and freedom from mortal consciousness and form. They are not concerned with the trivialities and petty differences of life. They have already renounced the world and the things that are of the world. They come stripped of worldly yearnings and full of celestial hope concerning that which they expect us to do for them. They quickly learn otherwise and they begin to demonstrate for themselves, based on our instruction, the necessary steps of purification and preparation for the divine consummation when the soul itself enters into the consciousness of its Creator and the walk with God begins anew.
To those of you who can understand exactly what I am saying here and now I say, "Bravo!" for your souls will all the sooner attain the goal that we seek together (for we seek for you that which we ourselves have already received). A word of caution is now in order, for the instruction which shall come forth in the next few releases will be dictated from the highest seraphic levels. We urge upon all of you who receive this material to prize it with your hearts, your minds, and your beings.
Give gratitude to God for it, for it represents a vast and sweeping change in the initiatic system of the planet. It places in your hands some of the great treasures of the divine art which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.5 Yet the responsibility for its receipt rests with you. What you shall do with the material, how much value you shall derive from it, will depend a great deal, of course, upon your own willingness to forgo the questionable joy of seating yourself in the seat of the scornful6 and, like a dilettante, selecting from the smorgasbord of the religions of the world those little tenets of faith that please you here and there.
Here you will be given a firm dictum, an effective and tested release, a measure of divine grace incomprehensible to the untutored. Quite naturally, then, there will be a tendency on the part of those who are not fully aware of the intricacies of simplicity to disregard or override the holy treasures which we will make known to you, and we have already passed on to you a great deal more than the ordinary mind can with a glance comprehend.
Pursue this course wisely and well, then, for the seraphic creation of God stands ready to become teachers of men and, as in our temple here at Luxor, the rising stature of the unfolding soul shall be made plain to you. You will commune with those higher intelligences and savants of God, servants of the divine will who ministered unto Christ and minister to you today in the only way that Divine Love can, by reflecting the radiance of the very fiery nature of God which overthrows all trifles, baubles, pettiness, and confusion and brings in the stalwart nature of the divine symmetry.
God is your victory and your life. So we pause to honor him daily.
In the name of the beloved mighty victorious Presence of God, I AM in me, my very own beloved Holy Christ Self, Holy Christ Selves of all mankind and beloved Archangel Michael and Faith, I decree:
O Archangel Michael, being of Faith,
Through my God Presence all doubt now erase
Open my eyes, my vision renew
Make of the many God's chosen few.
One by one we step through the door
Of greater faith than we've had before
Cast out our sin and our doubt in the Real
Help us to sense truth, God's Presence to feel.
I AM, I AM, I AM a friend of God
I AM, I AM, I AM uplifting his rod
Of implicit faith in my purpose divine
By thy blazing Reality now I do shine.
And in full faith I consciously accept this manifest, manifest, manifest (3x) right here and now with full power, eternally sustained, all-powerfully active, ever expanding, and world enfolding until all are wholly ascended in the light and free! Beloved I AM, beloved I AM, beloved I AM!
