The greatest lesson I find that I have learned from Jesus, from the great Masters down through the ages, is the lesson of humility. Humility is a candle that burns with fervor and is aware of its identity as the Identity of God - not a thing apart, but a thing within. Like the center of the flame, blue or white hot, and the corona of the flame, the golden yellow, so God and man mesh in the fires of eternity. And in the center of that Being, there man knows that his identity is cast in the Flame of God. And without that Flame he has no existence. Thus Golden Age man stands on the threshold of opportunity as the taper in the center of the Flame. This I would pass on to you - that humility within and boldness without, boldness for the Law, for God, for Hierarchy, will carry you far in the march across the earth and into eternity.
God-control of consciousness and the refusal to be moved are qualities set forth by El Morya before my lifestream, before my gaze and consciousness. Long ago in our evolution on Mercury, the Guru gave us this teaching; and how far we have walked with him in so many incarnations and then following Sanat Kumara in his mission to the planet earth. When I look at the saga of our twin flames and I look at the great company of saints who have also accompanied us and also accompanied the Hierarch of Venus, I say, It is the greatest drama that the soul can conceive of.
And so I invite you to the retreat of El Morya where, in his teaching on God-government, the Lord of the First Ray reviews for his students the panorama of such histories as show the great sacrifices that have been made for the Light on this and other systems of worlds. Often the bard takes into his chambers disciples who know not that they will be shown these films. And as they sit watching - almost as the proverbial watcher with the bag of popcorn watching the movie and the intense excitement of the drama - the guest in the chambers at Darjeeling suddenly sees among the legions of Light that are marching before him his own image, his own helmet, his own identity; and he exclaims, "There I am on the screen, in the movies!" And by recollection of the angels of record, he is aware that in past ages there is a continuity of existence, of preexistence; and he sees the saga of his own life, his own evolution.
And thus scene after scene, display after display, souls can observe how they have fought and won, how they have sometimes fallen and then picked themselves up again. Morya says not a word. He lets the members of his audience pick themselves out unmistakably. And then when they see those embodiments of which they are just a little bit ashamed, there is that certain silence, that certain squirming in the seat when the soul desires not to be recognized by his peers.
Precious hearts, at the close of these moving pictures, classes are held; and Morya says with a twinkle in his eye, "Well, what did you learn?" And slowly, a bit sheepishly, one by one the disciples will say, "Well, I say that I did this particular thing in that embodiment, and I'm not too proud of it, and I realize that I shouldn't do it again." And so it goes. And gradually the disciples lose their pride, lose their desire to hold close about them in the folds of their tatters the dark deeds of the past. And by and by, everyone knows everyone else's business, everyone else's karma, everyone else's triumphs and tragedies; and soon there is a melding of hearts together in what is known as a group mandala. And souls who have witnessed their own ups and downs together bind themselves together and pledge to go forth once again in the service of Hierarchy, perhaps to come forth to build the Knights of the Round Table, to dedicate themselves as of old to Arthur, the great king and champion of the will of God and of the chalice of our LORD.
So they come forth. And some of you have had this experience in Darjeeling. Some of you are here because you have seen mutual episodes, mistakes involving several or more; and you have realized that the only way to balance these situations, which we call group karma, is to come back again at the same period in history in a similar situation to move together as one body and to correct those mistakes that were made also as one body in the past.
And so you see, as has often been said, man is his own judge. The Christ Consciousness within each one is the teacher in the retreats of the Brotherhood. Need the Hierarch speak when the records of akasha roll before the gaze of the consciousness and the vibratory pattern of the soul is plainly felt so that that lifestream could not possibly deny his own presence, his own preexistence? For the electronic pattern is unique for each soul and each identity, and it clearly leaves a mark on akasha as an energy spiral. And thus these records can be invoked from akasha at the call of any Master.
Those of you who are interested in history and who have a historical bent, those of you who are interested in archaeology, in the discoveries of the Pyramid, and those of you whose interest has not yet waxed hot - to you I say, there would be not one among you who would not be on the very edge of his seat in the chambers of the Brotherhood to see the true records of past history as these unfold and show clearly, written for all to see, that which is done in secret which is now shouted from the housetops,2 the very retreats of the Great White Brotherhood.
History is exciting, and the most interesting thing about history is the patterns of the human consciousness as they are repeated over and over again. And most tragic are those scenes that show how the same souls, century after century, given another opportunity and another and another, will come into situations with the same individuals and do exactly the same thing. You wouldn't believe it and yet you would have to believe it, for it would be before your very eyes.
If you would desire then to become historians and to take the training of Morya and the Keeper of the Scrolls regarding mankind's infamous history, I would suggest that you make an appeal to the Chief of the Darjeeling Council that you might be taken in your finer body to the etheric temple in Darjeeling for this exciting course in cosmic history. And the lessons you bring forth from that history can be written in your recommendations to the Great Divine Director and to the Lords of Karma.
I choose not to weary you this night with a long discourse, for I understand that this conference has been packed with classes and with information for the nourishment of your souls. There is a plan and a purpose in the outlay and the design of this class; for the number twenty-one is the fulfilling of the cycle of twelve and nine, and these two cycles are for the entering of electrodes in your consciousness, specifically for your victory and for your God-reality. And thus it is not the length of our address nor necessarily all that we say that is the mark of that which is taking place; but it is the anchoring of forcefields of Light, which can only be done as the power of the spoken Word is anchored into your octave through a Messenger of Hierarchy.
I am privileged to know you, privileged to serve you. And I shall come again to give you more of the most interesting developments that have occurred in my life and evolution in the short time that has elapsed since our parting, which of course is never a parting, for I am indeed with you alway. And you know that; for you have my spirit and my love, my protection, my sponsorship.
And so although activities are heightened and increased and we are working perpetually in perpetual motion for mankind, yet there are moments, as I know you have those moments, when we among the Ascended Hosts do look forward to the day when our company of Lightbearers are wholly ascended and free. We prepare you for that time; but we say, do not come Home too soon, for there are many who need you and who desire to be contacted, who actually pray daily on their knees that God might come and show them the true path of salvation.
And I have stood in my ascended body of Light in the very rooms of those earnest souls who are praying for the touch of Jesus and to know the true Path. For they know in their hearts they are not being taught correctly. And I have blessed them and given them my love, and they have thought that they have received the love of Jesus the Christ; for that is the only Ascended Master that they know. And thus they interpret all spiritual experience as being that of the Lord Jesus. But so it is; for the love of Jesus is in my heart and my devotion to him is perpetual, and it is from the very depth of my being that I claim him as my Lord and Saviour. For I desire you to know that by the ministrations of Jesus I was able to complete my mission these two thousand years in which I gave my life to him and to his teachings and to the service of his flock.
And so, precious hearts, I say, the road to the ascension, while you are yet in embodiment, is often a bumpy road, a hard road; but nevertheless, each test passed, each lesson learned, each trial, brings you so much nearer the goal. I am indeed grateful for every frustrating experience, every problem, every burden that I have ever carried; for so is my strength and my determination measured by the obstacles which have forced me to summon greater Light and greater will. My gratitude is with you. It is boundless for Life above, Life below, and the evolutions working together to bring in the Golden Age.
I leave with you the petals of the unfoldment of my Divinity. Cherish them to your heart. And know that as you wear the scapular and the unfolding of Hierarchy, so I shall be your protector, your friend, your guardian and guide; for as I said, I have claimed you as my own. And the image of my Electronic Presence is indeed recorded upon the photograph, as is the image of my twin flame. Thus you can be certain that there is a law and a science in the divine imaging-forth of the image of Hierarchy and its manifestation. Take then that petal, and know that it is a petal of my unfolding Divinity, which I bequeath to you that you might one day bequeath it unto all mankind.
