THE PATH OF FREEDOM
I
"I Have Chosen to Be Free"

     To All Who Would Take the Path of Freedom:

     Hierarchy calls. From the summits of the world, the masters of the Great White Brotherhood sound the alpenhorn. From mountain range to mountain range the sound of the call echoes. Hierarchy waits. Vibration reverberates in the valleys. Some will stop and listen like the sheep on the rocky hillsides that raise their heads, anticipating the sound of the shepherd's voice.

     Hierarchy calls. Some who hear the sound will say, "Who is hierarchy?" They do not understand the arch of being, the higher way of consciousness that has been pursued and won by those who have gone before. Again they say, "Who is hierarchy?" And hierarchy answers, "I AM THAT I AM."1 What do you expect, O mortal? that the stars should confess their secrets and bare themselves before you? That the galaxies should converge where you are, the center of your own system of worlds within worlds, to unburden their contents at your feet?

     Who indeed is hierarchy? And who are you?

     O mortal, listen well! For the truth of the ages is spoken through heart and head and hand. Out of the mouth of God there proceeds the Word that is the Logos, the Word that is the formula of creation.

     So many miracles parade before mankind that all miracles have become mundane. Miracles have never served to prove the existence of the immortals or the presence of the unseen angelic hosts; nor have they served to convince mankind of the inner geometry of his own being. Inasmuch as you have taken the most precious of all miracles - the gift of life itself in cell and plant and man - as though it were an everyday event, take then the presence of hierarchy as the higher arch of being also as an everyday happening. For indeed it is.

     I come as the hierarch of the Aquarian age. For hundreds of thousands of years I have been called Saint Germain. You also have known my name, yet you have come again in a new body draped with an old consciousness. And if you will search sublevels of that consciousness, you will find that name already known, even as I AM known, at the core of the alchemy of your own be-ness.

     Hierarchy is a chain of beings that fill the microcosm and the macrocosm - beings like you and me who claim an identity and who, by seizing the courage to be, have realized their place in the scheme of things, positioned like the stars in the firmament as coordinates in time and space and in infinity. Members of hierarchy are, like you and me, beings with a self-awareness that is called God.

     I am the servant of the Most High in the central sun and in the central sun of your own being, the flame on the altar of your heart. I am hierarchy and you are hierarchy. Now let us see what our respective positions can bring for God and man.

     I am an ascended being, but it has not ever been thus. Not once or twice but for many incarnations I walked the earth as you now do, confined to mortal frame and the limitations of dimensional existence. I was on Lemuria and I was on Atlantis. I have seen civilizations rise and fall. I have seen the undulations of consciousness as mankind have cycled from golden ages to primitive societies. I have seen the choices and I have seen mankind by wrong choices squander the energies of a hundred thousand years of scientific advancement and even degrees of cosmic consciousness which transcend that which is attained by members of the most advanced religions of the day.

     Yes, I have seen the choices and I have chosen. By right choices man and woman establish their position in hierarchy. By choosing to be free in the magnificent will of God, I won my freedom from that mortal round of incarnations and justifications of an existence outside the One. I won my freedom by that flame, that keynote of the Aquarian cycle traced by alchemists of old, that purple elixir that saints do hold.

     Hierarchy is that chain of beings who have also won their freedom. Hierarchy is consciousness spanning a cosmos through the individualization of the God flame. You are an individual, but are you an individualization of the God flame. By right choice you can be, but you must know the choices and how to make them well. We who have chosen well return to the scene of our deliberation and the consummation of our soul's reunion with the Godhead. We return to the crucible of time and space to souls deliberating in the way.

     As the word of the Lord came to the prophets of Israel, so now let it be known that that word can come to every man and woman who will listen and who will hear the voice of the Ancient of Days,2 the voice of hierarchy, the voice of brothers and sisters who have gone before to chart the way, to draw the lines of longitude and latitude, to mark the dangers of the coral reef, to guide the ship of the soul through the initiations of the narrow straits and the isthmus that divides the subcontinents of mind and emotions and the energies of oceans rising and falling to the levels of awareness.

     You are mortal. I am immortal. The only difference between us is that I have chosen to be free and you have yet to make the choice. We have the same potential, the same resources, the same connection to the One. I have taken mine to forge a God-identity. For long ago the still small voice within spoke the fiat of Alpha and the living God: "Children of the One, forge your God-identity!" And in the stillness of the night, I heard the call and I answered, "I will!" And when I said "I will," all of cosmos echoed, "I will!" The will to be summons the vastness of the potential of being. And when a soul confirms the be-ness of his being to be God, then all who have likewise defended the position of the star of selfhood in the firmament of being move in starry cycles to ratify the confirmation of the supreme Giver of life.

     Children of the sun, you live in an age that is an open door. What is the open door? It is the open door to freedom and to hierarchy. Yes, they go hand in hand. You may ask, What has one to do with the other? And I will tell you. Freedom is the bestowal of the mantle of hierarchy; and that mantle is the momentum of attainment of all who have gone before, all who have made the grade, who have passed the tests of earth's schoolroom. Can you of yourself be free by the simple desiring to be free? In the alchemy of self-transformation, it takes more than the desire. It takes the magnetization of the essential ingredient of freedom: the flame of the Holy Spirit.

     When you impress upon the consciousness of a cosmos your own emancipation proclamation, by cosmic law all who are free must give answer. Hierarchy is required to implement mankind's freedom in this age. Hierarchy is composed of ascended masters, archangels, angels, Elohim, elementals, and cosmic beings - all representatives of the flame of the Holy Spirit who implement the will of God for every soul who sends forth the call, who hears the call of hierarchy and answers with his own call: "I will be free! By God, I will have my freedom in this life!" When we hear that call resounding from the valleys unto the heights, we are drawn instantaneously to the side of the one who has staked his claim to the resources of the Infinite.

     I am Saint Germain, and I have come to claim your soul and the fires of your heart for the victory of the Aquarian age. I have set the pattern for your soul's initiation. I have come to be your teacher. And the word of the Lord has been given unto me in this age even as it came to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, "For thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak."3

     Now these are the words that I speak. I have a message. Give ear to me, children of the one God! It is a message of freedom, of opportunity to rise to be what in fact you, as the stars, are ordained to be. I will assist you to implement the divine plan of your life. I will come to you, and I will speak within your heart, and I will deliver to you the message of the living word through the one that I have designated to be Mother of the Flame.

     I am the hierarchy of the age, master of the seventh ray. And in this day of the Lord's appearing, I have sent my messenger, Elizabeth Clare Prophet, before my face to prepare the way of the coming of the Lord within your being and consciousness. Let this Pearl of Wisdom then be sent to all who have heard the call of hierarchy, who have questioned, "Who is hierarchy?" and who will hear my answer, "I AM hierarchy."

     I come to show you how to be that which you already are; how to master time and space; above all, how to master the self and the integration of the lesser self with the Greater Self. I am a master because I have chosen to master the life entrusted to my care. You can do likewise. Take then the teachings of the Great White Brotherhood sent to you week by week, year by year, as the progressive unfoldment of the petals of your own heart's love for the Infinite One. Take the Pearls of Wisdom dictated by members of the hierarchy to all who would be free, to all who would walk through the open door of Infinity.

     The miracle of the spoken word is no greater and no less than the miracles of life you witness day by day. Take for granted neither this nor that which is the precious gift of life in your hands. For as the seasons roll and the cycles of life do turn, you will also come to the place of transition wherein your soul will find itself without choice in another plane, in another awareness. I come before the hour of reckoning that you might have free choice to choose whom you will serve this day4 and in that day when the earth and all thereon will recede from beneath you, a spinning sphere becoming a dot, and you find yourself assigned to other dimensions according to the choices you have made.

     "There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death"5 - even the death of the soul. The way that is right is in the offing. Won't you come with me as I expound upon that way to place before you the choices that are yours to make and to take in this age of Aquarius?

     I am on the path of freedom. Take that path and you will find me there. I AM your teacher if you will have me.
