I address the martyrs of the ages and those who would be. I address those who defy the fallen ones in the very teeth and [who], in the affirmation of the all-consuming fire, are ready to leap with [the fellow servants of] Daniel into the fiery furnace1 and know that all that is consumed2 is all that is unreal.
I come in the flame of the Holy Spirit that is the flame of your God-reality. To you who have passed through these halls of learning I say, look up and live! Look up unto your Mighty I AM Presence and live in the sacred fire. And if there remain in you day by day in the midnight hour that which is unreal, that which will be scorched by the flame, to you I say, cast it aforetime into the fiery furnace that then when thou art called into that fiery furnace no thing of thee that is a part of thee can be consumed nor scorched, nor [can it] retain even the smell of smoke upon it.
Let the prophet Daniel appear for the fulfillment of his own prophecy given unto him by the Lord! And let the followers of God as dear children3 recognize that there are prophets in the land today, even in your very midst, and [that] it is your poor perception that does not perceive even the Word incarnate in the body of your members. Therefore, let there be the perfecting of the Word incarnate and let the true shepherds of my people appear!
I AM Lanello. I come for the dividing of the way. I come for the initiation of those who are ready for the baptism of fire.4 And for those who are not ready I admonish diligence and prayer and fasting and service and devotion and, above all, the contemplation of the lives of the saints who truly have left their white-fire crosses across the face of the earth as markers and as rallying points for the revolutionaries of our era.
By the flame of the Blessed Virgin so the blood of Christ is amplified in the people of Poland and so their leader who does supplicate the Blessed Virgin can say with the gusto of martyrs, "It is exciting to be Polish!"5
Precious ones, it is exciting to be in embodiment as Keepers of the Flame wherever across the nations of the earth! It is exciting to be drawn by the fiery flames of the fiery baptism to the very edge of the citadels of Mount Seir,6 even the citadels of the fallen ones. Thus, as one contemplates the fire of the Blessed Virgin anointing those who are then called Christed ones, understand that it is the fire which must intensify ere their judgment might manifest through you.
Contemplate, then, the seraphic science. Contemplate, then, these pillars of fire in your midst - seraphim, legions of seraphim, billions of seraphim who come in numberless numbers, called by the World Mother, called by her children, called by the true shepherds of the people. Blessed hearts, this fire of seraphim is available to those who are the true followers of God, those who come and who ask for prayer, for forgiveness, for dynamic decrees and can understand the consequences.
Blessed hearts, there is tradition among Christian folk who have not accelerated nor become martyrs to ask one another for prayer. I trust that you who have been illumined will not be so ignorant as to apply to my own Beloved7 for prayer and then expect that your own misguided acts and deeds will somehow be dissolved as sugar cubes and that you will not be held accountable for those deeds of unloving disobedience.
The fire that is sent forth from the lips of my Shakti 6EN is for the consuming of that which is unreal. This fire is no respecter of your person, has naught to do with your sense of favoritism, even the arrogance of [the] self-elevation of an ego that has not been slain, of a soul that has not become the willing martyr, thereby becoming the saint.
That which dies, only that which can die, is the lesser self. Though they think they destroy the Christ, those fallen ones, they only give to my beloved children the opportunity for the accelerated consuming of the lesser self and the accelerated consummation of Love whereby by the very process of persecution they are raised to the glory of angels.
Therefore some who have asked for the prayers of the Mother should not have asked at all. Fallen ones have besought her initiations and they walk no more the face of earth. Children of the Light have asked for prayer and they have invoked thereby their own judgment.
Therefore, come with unspotted garments and souls whited by purity's flame. Come therefore before the altar and know that if you would be healed of your diseases by our prayer, then that which has caused those diseases must also pass into the flame.
Thus, I come to ask, "Are you ready for the consummation of Love? Are you ready for the whole path of the upward spiral?" For this is indeed the dividing of the way. And we have stood, lo, these years - our service together soon numbering twenty and my own spanning vast ages of preparation, preparation for the coming of the Beloved 6EN and her children.
We have observed, then, how some have sought to understand the game, to figure out the computer of God and therefore to sin and then to weep and then to ask for forgiveness and then to sin again. Beloved hearts, the masquerades of the seed of the Wicked [One] are manifold but at the core of that seed is that discord which does truly divide and intend to conquer the Body of God upon earth.
Therefore, let not those who have sought to escape their cosmic accountability in all things consider that they can endure in the Community of the Holy Spirit, for the Holy Spirit always brings the baptism of fire, of that sacred fire. And no man or woman or child may know the hour of the descent of the Flame and of the rising of the Flame as Alpha and Omega, as the Body and Blood of Christ so infused with Light that the individual himself will fall unless he stand by Virtue and by Truth.
No more, then, will we accept the apologies, the "I am sorry," and the tearful eye for discords and bedevilments and failure syndromes in our midst. It is time for conquerors to conquer, else be not worthy of the name!
It is time for the children of the Light to rally round the magnet of those who are becoming whole and who fear not to part with those segments of unwholeness within their beings. It is time for Keepers of the Flame to be not apologetic of the human, saying, "Well, we are only human and therefore subject to err." It is time that your affirmation of divinity where you are be not an idolatrous one, for the idol of yourself will attempt to worship the idol you have created of ourselves and both must come tumbling down.
We are no idols. We are Messengers of the sacred fire of seraphim, and seraphim come trailing their garments where we walk. Yet we are not gods. We are the Word even as you are the Word. And we come, bearers of a flaming sword. And that sword will cleave asunder the Real from the Unreal; and therefore you will go out into the world to pass those initiations that you have failed to pass within this Community, thinking that the Community itself would buoy you up into the ascension spiral that you have not earned.
Thus, hearken unto me, beloved, for some are of the opinion that they have pulled the wool over the Messenger's eyes. Perhaps you have, but the All-Seeing Eye of God penetrates that wool and you cannot deceive the one anointed. However, the one anointed may tarry with you in long-suffering as we have for many a season, hoping upon hope that you would play out [once and for all] your game of manipulating the game of life.
The Law of Karma is inexorable. There is no playing the game of the personality or of idolatry with this law. What do you think, you who would parade with your masks feigning harmony when within there are ravening wolves of self-deception? What do you think, thou proud one? How long couldst thou endure? There is no enduring the fire of seraphim. Therefore take heed, for when the fire leaves the heart of the Mother in the release of invocation it is indeed the all-consuming fire.
Let the children of the Light, then, apply the Law. Let them give loving obedience [to the Law] and let there not be this dallying in unrighteousness, this tolerance of human error that ought not to be. And let thy divinity be of the Compassionate One and not the false perfection of the mechanical one.
What? Have you not known by all these years with us that when we speak of perfection we speak not of human perfection? And [that] we speak not of a God who condemns imperfection that is seeming, whilst behind that there is the heart perfected in love? What is that which is perfect in man? It is the perfect Love of the Father and of the Son that can tolerate in the natural course of events a temporary faltering, a temporary lack of vision.
But, beloved hearts, that imperfection that is born of rebellion against God, an unmitigated rebellion, that imperfection which remains as a death wish in the very face of the abundant Life demonstrated again and again through our dictations, that is the imperfection that we spurn and that will be cast out - the imperfection that is determined to have its own will that comes forward feigning and fawning upon the Messengers and pretending obedience, but at the very first opportunity to once again express that self-will, that condescension toward the Messenger, will not lose any time to do so. Whether the criticism is overt or in feeling or behind doors as gossip, that imperfection which is of the seed of the Wicked [One] has no part with the Body of God!
Therefore fear not, children of the Sun, for the flame of transmutation will always iron out the wrinkles of an almost perfect performance. Take care, then, that you apply with diligence the perfecting of the heart, the purification of the heart, the purification of desire.
[But] do not think that at any moment the angels are watching to see if your garments or your steps are perfect. [For] this is not an outer perfection but it is the gradual [sure-footed soul-attainment of] day-by-day striving; [it is] the inherent perfection of striving itself that is [like] an arrow [shot from a bow of promise; it] is an intensity that determines, "This day I will strive and tomorrow I will be better than the day before!"
This is the quality of perfection that has naught to do with the mechanical ones and their accusations of failures that are not failures in the eyes of God. Those who try and try again to do his will, those who may fail in the outer sense in the marts of the world - that outer failure is not that of which we speak. [We speak of] the inner failure of the heart to apply itself and to wax hot in fervor and intensity for the Path and, yes, for the flame of success in the world - a success that is a divine success because you have conquered by God and by applying his laws, not because you have made money or built an empire or scraped the skies with your towers! Nay, [we speak of] that success which shows the sharpening of mind and heart, the application of virtue. And the fruit of that success is a better life for the many and service to God's people, preferring one another in love.8
Therefore, the Community of the Holy Spirit worldwide does seek to establish that Community whereby the benefits of striving are given as charity to those who are the poor in spirit but are not content to remain the poor in spirit. For they know that the abundant wealth of God is at hand and [that] they can exceed in virtue [beyond] its last manifestation within themselves.
Therefore, charity is unto those who already contain the magnet of hope and of faith and are worthy of the gifts of love [from] the body of the Community. If there be those who apply to you, then, for support or supply, let them prove that they have a chalice to hold that which is sanctified and holy by your sacred labor. And let the net gain of your hands be always unto the glory of God, placed upon his altar for the expansion of the circle of Life which is even my own Body of God upon earth. And into that Body I would receive the little ones who are striving for wholeness rather than striving to maintain their incompleteness so that they might be dependents upon this Community.
Let those who are sick be made whole by the purification of the heart. You have heard of my magnanimous heart. Indeed, it is the heart of God which he has given to me because I perceived it, because I desired to be it, because in the face of the pressures of temptation to deny these little ones I saw the mark and the goal and the victory and I determined to express that love until it would be for the healing of hearts.
Your heart, then, is a central sun and a sacred fire. It is an all-consuming fire. Truly, within your own heart is the experience of the fiery baptism. Do you dare enter your own heart? Your Christ Self will not allow you to enter the secret chamber thereof if it will cause you harm.
Therefore, in truth it is said in this hour, prepare to meet thy God.9 And thy God be thy Christ Self. Thy God be thy Mighty I AM Presence. Prepare to meet them and consider not that there is in this fiery vibration the tolerance for human indulgence simply because you would not strive to overcome that tongue that comes as sharpness, as criticism, as sarcasm, and as the subtlety of Serpent's lie.10
Blessed hearts, it is well to measure the levels of tolerance and intolerance of the Mighty I AM Presence. And this is what you receive in direct chelaship under me and my Beloved - these lessons. And somehow some of you have got them turned inside out and therefore you seek that mechanical perfectionment and that idolatrous religion which are far, far, far from our countenance and our hearts.
We love the lowly and the little ones whose hearts burn in fire, who are not self-deceived and [who], though uneducated, are tutored in their hearts by perfect wisdom. And they can take our offering and our Pearls of Wisdom and understand them, while that very wisdom is foolishness with the worldly wise11 who continue to repeat, "I cannot understand them." And indeed they cannot, for the Lord has already caused their ears to wax dull lest they be saved.12 For they cannot eat the manna of angels, the holy bread of Life. And if they try, it is their very judgment even while their outcry remains, "We cannot understand, we cannot understand!"
Understanding, beloved, is a gift of God unto his own; and that willful, rebellious misunderstanding and misapplication of the Law is also the mark of the deceivers who have deceived for so long that they themselves are thrice deceived - deceived by their perversion of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
Therefore I come to you in the words of the Lord Christ, "Judge righteous judgment."13 And do not expect that the Lord will tolerate your tarrying [in your old human momentums] and [in] your failure to apply the beautiful disciplines of the Holy Spirit in body, mind, and soul. Do not think that somehow you are cradled in our heart forever and a day, [while we] wait and wait for that decision [that must be your own] to merge with the flaming fire.
You know not and I know not the day and the hour of the Lord's coming into the temple. Therefore, why tarry ye? Each day is the last. Each day must be fulfilled. And in the striking of the midnight hour14 let the cry go forth from your heart:
Let all unreality be cast into the sacred fire of my Mighty I AM Presence! I cast myself upon the Rock that the `I' that is the lesser self might be broken!15 "Father, into thine arms I commend my spirit."16
Precious hearts, live each day unto eternity. Live each day climbing the spiral staircase unto the victory of Love.
I come for the feast of the resurrection of the perfect Manchild within you. I come and I stand and I deliver fire that is a compensating fire, one that will not consume you, one you need not fear. And this compensating fire, my dispensation of love to you, is after all for the burning of the remaining mists of outer consciousness of densities of this world's immensities of error. Therefore, that mist is consumed by the greater mist of God that descends to form the crystal.
Dear hearts of fire, your capes are waiting and the sign of victory upon them.17 Let your hearts not be troubled. Strive to enter in by perfect Love. Strive, then, by the alchemy of the Word; for we are moving upward, we are moving onward. And the light of my mantle with beloved Saint Germain and Portia will yet tarry through this quarter of Summit University, for I have not yet left off the delivery of my Word and my admonishment to you.
Therefore, I am authorizing the release of my teachings, which must be numbered and carefully be completed one by one - their release to those who have attended Summit University and who are keeping the flame in the Teaching Centers of the earth. I release, then, that which I have given, each as a step; and these steps are they which lead to our retreat on the Rhine.
Understand that the self-mastery that is imparted can be received only by those who are striving for that self-mastery. Those, then, who come to our twin flames, know that we be the representatives of the God and Goddess Meru in the earth, who are the sponsors with the Lord Jesus Christ of the sixth root race.18
Let there be, then, across the face of the earth a return to the true Christ-I-AM-ity. Let there be the understanding of the path of those who receive the mantle of their own Christ Self. It is this initiation toward which I would prepare you. Beloved one, to wear the mantle in the physical octave of the Son of God is indeed that high and holy calling. The mantle is there, worn by the Christ Self.
Strive, then, for the anointing of the soul in thy heart. And tarry ye here at Camelot and in the center of God's heart where our centers are for the fulfillment of the Word, for the fulfillment of the perfecting of the Holy Spirit within you by seraphic bands who teach in the secret chamber of each one's heart their seraphic science.
Blessed ones, blessed ones, I AM here in your midst even as others of the Ascended Masters are here! The Light of our hearts has long overcome the world. Be not afraid, then, but rather be of good cheer. For the Light that is in us would swiftly be magnetized by your heart, would be one with it, and would therefore increase and intensify hourly your overcoming. [But] the magnet of your heart must become great enough [to receive us] lest our own hearts in that convergence consume rather than align. [Therefore,] we would create the magnet of Alpha and Omega twixt our hearts as one.
Therefore strive! Strive to enter into our hearts that by the mighty figure-eight flow between us Spirit and Matter are one, and our own Electronic Presence might surround you and be that magnet for the mantle of your own Christ Self and divine Sonship [to descend upon you].
If, therefore, you discern those various vibrations of the world and of Death and Hell itself, and if perchance you feel that you are not overcoming by your dynamic decrees, pause for a moment and pray unto the Lord:
O Lord, my God, if I be not worthy for the fullness of thy heart to manifest in me bodily in this hour, I pray, therefore, send thy Son, thine own only begotten who is Christ the Lord of my being, even my Saviour and my God.
And let this Christed One place that mantle upon me and approximate that heart as close, as close, my God, as the Great Law will allow. And let there be compensation whereby I truly might be in this moment the martyr on behalf of my Community, whereby there is put into the fire that Unreality, and Reality does appear. And [that] for this hour I might hold the balance for Mother and for Lanello and for all of the Body of God upon earth who have not yet come into the folds of their garments.
Therefore, O Lord, thou who hast overcome the world, even the Son, Jesus Christ, come now with my own Beloved, come into my temple and be thou the overcomers of this condition, of this circumstance spawned by the very astral hordes in Death and in Hell, spawned by the Nephilim!
Even so, Lord God, come quickly and consume the works of the destroyer who is not the Holy Spirit but the impostor, even the Nephilim in their spacecraft, even the fallen ones in the earth, even those who are the purveyors of lies and gossip concerning myself, O God!
Lo, I stand in the wake of the martyr, Thomas à Becket, Thomas More, and all those who have stood in Rome, there to be devoured by the lions rather than forsake the living Truth!
Here I stand! Let my martyrdom be, O God, that I live life to its fullest, life so full that Life consumes all Death where I AM - life so full that it be the spontaneous combustion of the fiery baptism, the sacred fire that burns where I AM, consuming all unlike thee, the sacred fire that is an offense unto the fallen ones! Let them therefore persecute that which is called "me," my God.
Therefore, forsake me not that I may not forsake thee, my God. Therefore, come to me, O Lord, and lift in this hour this burden upon our Community that we might not be perpetually upon the defensive but might now go forth as the offensive for God in the earth, even pronouncing the judgment of Mount Seir, the entire accumulation of the mountain of unreality of the Nephilim gods!
Even so, Lord Jesus Christ, even so, Lord Morya El, even so, Lord Saint Germain, come quickly into my temple and be thou the living God! Even so I will proclaim thy name I AM THAT I AM Sanat Kumara unto the Victory, unto the Victory, and unto the Victory, my God.
Thus, my beloved, invite the whirlwind of the Maha Chohan. I say, invite it in the day and in the hour when thou knowest from within that thou canst indeed withstand the fiery baptism and the Presence of the Maha Chohan, when deception no longer lurks in the folds of thy garments as that which is combustible and therefore will burn not to the victory of the soul but unto its judgment.
Come clean, I say, and recognize that the turning of the decade is the turning of the way of the Eighth Ray. Let the lessons of the Eighth Ray be heard! Let them be received! Let them be known. And let the angel of the Eighth Ray come forth when you have become as a Community the chalice for the Eighth Ray of holy compensation, holy dispensation, holy, holy, holy invocation.
In the mantle of my God, I anoint you. I bless you. I love you. I hold you forevermore and forever.
