The Individual Path
The Great Equation of the Century - Fearless Compassion

     O Light, how art [thou] the magnificence of a soul, the crown of beauty and the glistening eye of the Divine Mother who sheds a tear for the benighted understanding of her own!

     I come, then, the knight champion of all servants of God upon earth, happy to grace this land with violet flame angels and a dispensation of violet flame that shall remain when multiplied by those who elect to keep its flame.

     I offer my hand, beloved, for the victory of your hearts.

     I would speak to you, then, of the individual path. Enough and enough again has been said of war and burdens coming upon the earth. My concern in this moment is you, the individual; for though I may not have dispensations to sponsor this nation, I do have the approbation of Almighty God to sponsor the individual who, after all, is a cosmos all inside.

     We have worlds to conquer. Let us go within and begin with the microcosm of self. For it has been well said that the only destiny of which you may be certain is that of your own soul. It is a future, then, that can be charted and known, a vision that can be seen, a goal that is attainable. Whereas, for the perfidy of the human consciousness it is not at all certain, given human idiosyncrasies, whether the people of a city block or a hemisphere shall rise to the occasion of the momentous descent of the Divine Mother Liberty into their midst.

     Beloved ones, even consider the multireactions to the visitation in the physical [plane] of such an one as this Cosmic Being of Liberty, this Divine Mother whose statue still stands in New York Harbor, drawn there by the ancient Temple of the Sun of Atlantis.1 So, then, beloved, one can see that human reactions to the divine are often idolatrous as [mankind] regard the luminaries of heaven with fear, even anger or hatred, who [, they suppose,] would come perhaps to disrupt their lives.

     Therefore, I am sent to work with the Keepers of the Flame who have already made that determination in life to hold out a light for all who will follow its beacon. Therefore, I am an initiator of the age of Aquarius and [of] souls who would enter therein.

     My concern is the continuity of being of your lifestream and that a soul not yet wed and fixed in the universal Light might endure whatever upheavals might occur within or without. After all, personal karma is enough, of itself, to keep most occupied and preoccupied day upon day. Is it not so, beloved, that for the cares of this world and this life most cannot even lift themselves to be concerned of local, let alone national and international affairs? They have left these to the powers that be, who by this moment of history and the turning of worlds have jolly well betrayed the vast majority of the people of a planet.

     Well, I can tell you that we the Ascended Masters and the heavenly hosts have nowise betrayed our calling or your own, and so long as the dispensation is open to our universities of the Spirit,2 we shall be on hand with the utmost fervor and determination. You have therefore but to invite me into your life this night and I, your brother, who desire to be known simply as "holy brother," Saint Germain,3 shall come to you and tutor you.

     And if you should ask for a step-up in initiation, an acceleration to swiftly fly as an arrow to the heart of the Divine Mother, so you will sense the stepping up of returning karma, of light descending, of mystical awareness; and as you accompany this with invocations to the violet flame heartfelt, you shall know a path and a victory sooner than you think.

     And that is well-taken, for since it is later than you think, it is well to attain sooner than you think and therefore to come out ahead in the equation and to know that at any hour when the angel does call, you may easily step forth from this body knowing that in other octaves and higher planes you have wings that soar, chakras that spin, a soul integrated with the Higher Mind and [you] therefore [are] no longer so dependent for locomotion or survival upon a mere physical matrix already predestined to rot and decay.

     Blessed ones, I am interested in the life of the soul and [in] her tenure and her oneness with that great eternal Light. I am interested in your self-mastery. I desire that you should understand the great equation of the century, that by an acceleration of dynamic decrees of the violet flame and loving service to life you may balance an extraordinary percentage of your karma; and if you reach that level of 51 percent, beloved, you will not be required to reincarnate, come what may upon this planet. This is a great boon of dispensation from the LORD God, and thereby many have achieved that point of permanency and well-being - peace in the profound recesses of the temple of being - and thus a fearlessness that comes of a fire that intensifies.

     Ah yes, Zarathustra! Lo! the Ascended Master does enter. Precious hearts, the legions of Light of seraphim and Nature spirits of fire, called salamanders, who accompany this Flaming One are a joy to behold in the myriad rainbow rays of their movement of fire!

     Thus, the acknowledgment of the sacred fire, the adoration of this sacred fire and the willingness to pass through that baptism of fire4 will afford you, beloved, the opportunity to be divested of what is unreal and to have reinforced, enfired as though in a great kiln, thy God-reality. Singing unto the living flame, adoring that flame, you are directly in contact with the infinite God. For our God is a consuming fire.5 And I AM that fire, manifesting myself now as a flame and now again as the figure of the Wonderman of Europe that you might recognize me as the one about whom you have read.6

     Ah yes, beloved, I, too, thought that in the demonstration of miracles I might win the heart of a world, and so my kind sponsors allowed me to make the effort. Well, beloved, there was nothing too much for me to try in order to convince the crowned heads and others of Europe to leave their folly and unite to defeat those same forces now arrayed on a world scale.

     Blessed ones, some have said to this Messenger, "If you would only perform a miracle or two we might believe in you." Well, blessed hearts, miracles are for believers, as it is written.7 And I am in the heart of the miracle of Life itself; and the miracle of Life and the continuity and our speaking these words to you is more of a miracle than you may dream of.

     But be assured of this, beloved: those whose hearts are of stone, those who enter into a spirit of condemnation of our best servants, these will not believe though you may prance and dance all the day for them. They only hold up the faults of the Lightbearers that they might have an excuse as to why they will never bend the knee before Sanat Kumara or the Ancient of Days or the Christ of their own being.

     Let it be known, then, that the miracle is you and is in your heart as a threefold flame and divine spark. The miracle is that a path foreknown can be walked by you in this hour.

     My angels come for the transmutation of doubt and fear. Recognize this, beloved, that all doubt and fear is of oneself [and of] one's relationship to God and to the Divine Father-Mother. As beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so is doubt. Thus, one's state of consciousness and attainment, mastery or absence thereof, is reflective of one's own state of being.

     Embrace Life, beloved, and Life shall embrace thee.

     Now, my emphasis as I tutor your souls is in the development of the heart as a fiery furnace and vortex of transmutation, a place where the threefold flame is balanced and where one can extend the borders of being and love to enfold so many who suffer.

     Think upon these words of the bodhisattva vow, fearless compassion! Ah, what a state of mind to be in perpetually! Fearlessness to give of the fount of one's being, to extend compassion instead of criticism and backbiting, to give such flood tides of love as to fill in the chinks and cracks of another's shortcomings. Fearless compassion means one no longer fears to lose oneself or to loose oneself to become such a grid for the light to pass through that the Infinite One never ceases to be the compassionate one through you.

     Is this not, then, the face and the posture of the Buddha, our beloved Gautama? Is it not, beloved, that Presence of the Divine One?

     O fearlessness flame, dissolve, then, all reticence to be and to embrace the will to be! Fearlessness flame, sweep through those who are a part of my band of disciples and let each one know how the rings of the aura multiply as lines of compassion, [even] as rings upon a tree denote the ageless wisdom that accrues to one's Tree of Life - as a destiny, as a continuity of the extension of the branches of being until all of life might know that in the earth God has planted a seed and a seedling has come forth and a tree has matured: It has become a great tree. It is thyself, beloved, one and one and one again, trees of the forest of God where angels pray.

     Is it not so [in order] that the whole world might receive the extended branches of those who have fearless compassion? Let it be the byword of those who adore the kindling fire of Buddha of the heart.

     Does your heart not burn within you,8 beloved, as in this hour even Lord Buddha does send angels of his Presence and his Divine Image before you? And does he not, then, foreshadow the coming of Kuan Shih Yin?9 O the blessed Kuan Shih Yin! Is it not so, that the Divine Mother in manifestation is at the point of origin the Buddha? And so the cycles turn and the chain of being and the T'ai Chi. Therefore is there the Father-Mother God.

     I am Saint Germain. I too have spent the decades and centuries in the caves of the Himalayas and in the planes of nirvana. I come from a long preparation to embody the soul, the law, the flame, the ray that is called Aquarius.

     Freedom is my name! And so long as there are free souls upon earth who desire that freedom to ultimately realize the Bodhi10 in themselves, so I am at hand, as much able to teach you the path of the Eastern adepts as I have chosen to give you instead the formula from God for the Western disciple. That formula, beloved, is by no means rote but a divine ritual, a "right-you-all," for the righting of all conditions in consciousness.

     I can assure you, beloved, as I look upon souls who come to study my teaching, that I must measure the sands in the hourglass of every life. There are those who come who have but months of tenure left on earth, others weeks, days or years. Thus, I have prepared in my lessons and [in] all of my dictations, together with the Ascended Masters who have also given of their teaching, a course of instruction whereby the individual may make the most progress and thereby be ready for any change, major or minor, conditioned by his own karma written in his own astrology.

     Blessed ones, I define progress as the balancing of karma. Karma, then, is the weight whereby many times the soul cannot fly. Therefore, emptying the ship of its cargo or a balloon of its ballast, this is my goal - thus my gift of the violet flame multiplied by the power of the ten thousand-times-ten thousand by the aura of Maitreya, the Cosmic Christ, who would multiply every call of your heart.11

     The less karma you have, the greater [your] opportunity day by day. This affects all choices. It affects contracts - business, marriage and otherwise - those who are drawn to your life and those who cannot be, the children you may give birth to. Every day as percentages of karma pass through the sacred fire and that transmutation is ratified by good deeds, words and works of love and service, you are lightening the load and therefore rising and therefore, beloved, coming into new planes of realization, new associations.

     Walk with angels. Enter the rarefied atmosphere. Thus, why position oneself at a level or plane or step of the ladder when [on] the very next one you might find your twin flame or the Guru of thy heart or an initiation failed long ago? Now you are prepared to take it, to win and to fly!

     Aquarius is a mighty air sign. It is the sign of the liberation of the mind and the soul to soar, to sing!

     Beloved, I see here hearts of Light encased in dense forms so polluted by karma. Do you realize how quickly the cleansing of the pores and the organs and the lower bodies takes place by the drenching rain of violets in springtime? Have you not played in the rain as children, looking up into it and licking one's face? O beloved, those drops of rain were received as a child by you as descending violet light, and often my angels did pour to you in joy the violet flame through the falling rains of springtime. Thus, the flowers bloom, the chakras open.

     May you now sense your vibration in my Presence and know how much lighter and freer and more the master of your domain you can be in a fortnight, in six weeks. Should you take these violet flame decrees and give them for those ninety minutes a day for thirty-three days,12 you will find yourself in such a centeredness by the time you accept my invitation to be at FREEDOM 1988 in the Heart of the Inner Retreat, that those dictations and dispensations forthcoming can be absorbed by you as though you were a sponge, wholly free and open, and thus [you may] walk away [from the "Place of Great Encounters"] with an auric egg of violet fire that all the earth and elementals will notice as you pass by.

     There is such a high road of freedom that beckons you on and this is not illusion! This is the fusion of the soul to her Divine Reality! This is the alchemical marriage!

     I extend my heart and hands to you, beloved. I desire you to know that my lessons and teachings will take you swiftly in the direction you really desire to go. Thus, beloved, successive doors open as other doors close behind you. And this is our desire, that you come to easily frequent the octaves other than the concrete physical but always return to this blessed body temple in the morning prepared to face the day as a conqueror of life and a victor over Death and Hell.

     This is your hour and the power of Light, not Darkness, for Darkness must go down. And let it go down, beloved, more and more because you live and love and have embraced the wisdom of the ancients.

     I therefore commend all who understand that the only true attainment takes place when the fire of the heart must intensify to accomplish a goal of service, when one must pull down the resources of one's causal body, for one knows that one's [lower] self no longer has the capacity for the challenge.

     Blessed hearts, the mediocrity of world socialism is the bane of the Guru-Chela relationship, for it allows for stagnation, noneffort. And while individuals exercise their sinews, they fail to exercise their spiritual reality and to seek that strength for the accomplishment of deeds of honor and heroism.

     I say to you, then, be not content in the posture that is along the lines of day in day out performing the same task. You are not dumb beasts on a treadmill. You are sons of God moving up the mountain of being! Do not shirk a challenge! Welcome it and know that when you desire to serve the world body, you will always have a challenge that exceeds your present ability. If it did not, you could not call us Guru, or the Path one of initiation. Therefore, summoning resources you knew not you had enables you to understand the meaning of self-transcendence and its necessity.

     Either you mount the spiral of being and ascend or you enter the treadmill and go round and round and round. And the astonishing fact is the majority of humankind prefer it that way - to be told what to do, to have the state plan for them, to receive their dole and their money and their food, which surely becomes a mess of pottage. And this is the existence they prefer. Beloved, how can we respond to such as these when there is no response forthcoming? Therefore, up and down the nations we seek the dissatisfied ones, those who have contempt for mediocrity and [own] the same expression of Morya of the night past.13

     Dare, then, to exceed oneself. But this, too, requires fearless compassion - [even] compassion for one's own soul in the process of [overcoming by a] fearless compassion that should never indulge self-pity or whining or petulance.

     Blessed ones, the higher rock where the eagles gather is the place where you will find me.14 There are other paths and ways for those content with things as they are. It is the discontented spirit who desires to move on who will find me and have me and know me. Blessed ones, I am a true friend of Light who always loves you and will not betray you, for I have known you forever and a day.

     Thus, beloved, if you have the fearless compassion to save a world, let us begin! Let us begin with you and me and then take on the impossible that will quickly appear as the possible. There is no failure but that which you accept, no victory denied but that which you allow some fallen angel, false-hierarchy impostor of yourself to deny. There is no backward step that can be imposed upon you unless you yourself lose the sense of self-worth in the I AM Presence.

     I am Saint Germain. To reach me you must take a leap forward and beyond, even into the unknown, and you must be either hot or cold but never lukewarm.15

     I am in the heart of the violet singing flame. I await thy call.

     My hand, see it now. It is extended in that divine friendship that spans the octaves. And I shall remain standing where this Messenger is until everyone who desires it may receive the sealing of the servants of God in their foreheads.16

     By his grace I am so sent for this sealing. May it be done and may you know the meaning of the cosmic cross of white fire.

     This dictation by Saint Germain was delivered by Elizabeth Clare Prophet on Saturday, April 16, 1988, at the Toronto Airport Hilton International, Ontario, Canada. Prior to the dictation the Messenger delivered the lecture "Saint Germain On Prophecy: The Astrology of Canada's Destiny: Challenge, Crisis and Opportunity." Lecture and dictation on 3 audiocassettes, 4 hr. 15 min., B88064-66. [N.B.

Bibliography

[15]
Volume 31, Number 50, footnote 1. Reactions to the Statue of Liberty. During the July 1986 celebration marking the 100th anniversary of the Statue of Liberty, foreign press correspondents criticized Americans for "commercialism" and extravagance surrounding the ceremonies. On July 5, 1986, the Los Angeles Times reported: "`When America does something, they do it so big,' said Jean-Francois Bizalion, correspondent for Le Matin in France. `The statue has been around for 100 years. It's like all of a sudden they have discovered the statue. It's like America has only one monument. It's too much.' ... `This is either the biggest patriotic expression in American history or the biggest panoply of sleazy exploitation: Take your pick,' said Dermot Purgavie, who writes a column from the United States for the London Daily Mail. ... In the Soviet Union, the Communist Party daily Pravda charged that weekend celebrations belie the true meaning of liberty in America - `the liberty to sell and be sold and the power of the dollar in a place where money is boss.' Describing the statue's physical position in New York Harbor somewhat incorrectly, Pravda contended that she stands with `the huge and powerful buildings of banks, corporations and insurance companies at her back."' In her July 5, 1986 dictation, the Goddess of Liberty said that these comments were "the envy by these nations concealed in criticism" of the "abundant momentum of joy and spirit and energy and life" of Americans and that they were "a complete misreading of the free enterprise spirit. They have not read the vibration of the Spirit of America." See 1986 Pearls of Wisdom, vol. 29 no. 65, pp. 569-70. On Atlantis, the Goddess of Liberty's Temple of the Sun was located on the site of present-day Manhattan Island. With the sinking of that continent and the destruction of this physical focus, her retreat was established on the etheric octave. See Saint Germain On Alchemy, glossary, s.v. "Goddess of Liberty," "Retreats"; Lords of the Seven Rays, Book One, pp. 131-33.
