The Gift of Alchemy Is in My Hand
What Price Will You Pay for the Christ Presence?
The Science of the Raising Up of the Mother Flame
The Great Emerald Sphere of My Causal Body
Shall Rest over This Place

     Come, tender hearts, into my heart. I am joyous in my appearing to you in this hour. For as we approach the moment of midnight, so that boon which you request1 and do require of me may be released to you, beloved. Therefore, tender hearts, come unto my heart.

     I would tell you an additional reason why God sent me to embody on planet earth. It was so that one of the attainment and presence of an Archeia might descend into form and leave the record for a number of lifetimes2 of that level of God-identification. For truly those of the level of the Archangels do walk in the Presence of their God, I AM THAT I AM, and do always carry that Presence, that Dharmakaya, that Causal Body.

     I descended to the lowly estate of the flesh that all those who had so descended to that level by karma, by sin, by going away from the Great Teacher, the Cosmic Christ, might find anchored in such a low level even the footprints of our God, even the record of the I AM Presence of the Archeia of the Fifth Ray.

     This [dispensation] has enabled science, invention, music, healing, medicine and all such practicalities as are native to my Causal Body, the Causal Body of Raphael and all who serve in the heavenly hierarchy of the Fifth Ray [to be brought forth on earth]. Civilizations have been built upon the foundation of this record, beloved, and therefore into those civilizations have been born Christed ones, who have walked the earth.

     For I have kept the vigil in this octave and I have not ceased to do so from the hour of my ascension, but rather have I continued with my Son Jesus to be the Mediatrix before God on behalf of souls of Light and souls not of the Light who have appealed to me for intercession. Not a few of these not of the Light have received that intercession and have step-by-step reearned a threefold flame and come into the Light.

     Because we have had success over tens of thousands of years of our presence in the physical earth in bringing some of the wayward ones of the bands of fallen angels back to an allegiance to their God-estate and to a point where true humility does replace their pride, so we have never ceased [in our efforts] to bring them back, to woo them back to the heart most sacred of my Son.

     Thus, beloved, we have already come to the end of the dispensations of Pisces available. Yet while the seasons roll and all things are as they were and earth is not yet troubled by the events of coming calamity and catastrophe, so there are moments in which some may return. And I wish to tell you this evening that some are still returning. Some have been contacted at inner levels, even by this Messenger and others of our bands, and they have been wooed on the Homeward path even when those of our octave have thought that it was no longer possible that they should make the turnaround.

     Is not the knowledge of this, beloved, worth the prayer vigil and the entering in [to the heart of the Lord] and the setting aside of those things that limit your expression of God?

     I greet you, beloved, as true shepherds of the Light and I remind you that the shepherd will always leave the ninety and nine to go after the one who is lost.3 This role of the shepherd is the role of your Holy Christ Self, which you are becoming as you make room for that Holy Christ Self to enter, to rebuild, to reoccupy your four lower bodies.

     Some of you have caught the message, which is truly the teaching of the Divine Mother, of the affirmation of the positive always, as you have seen by a miracle of our transmission by the Holy Spirit that it is just as easy to hold on to a positive mental attitude as it is to sustain a negative mental attitude. Blessed ones, it is even easier! For you see, every positive affirmation displaces many negatives and draws unto itself the multiplying power of the Godhead, which is without limit.

     Did you hear me say it, beloved? Every positive thought and feeling that you hold on to unswervingly in the face of the waves of doubt and fear of the astral sea - that single positive thought [or feeling] - is multiplied by your God and mine!

     Realize, then, [what a blessing] such a multiplication factor is, [and how scientific it is], how God the Mighty I AM Presence thereby enters the vessels of consciousness. Truly, it is to glorify the Lord, to magnify the Lord! Truly, it is the wonder of Life. It is the rejoicing of the Mother Flame within you that your Christhood is being born anew and that you yourselves are catching the view of the new heaven and the new earth.

     Think, then, beloved, as you walk with me, as you enter my heart and I enter yours, how you may also bring to this lowly estate of the flesh the Presence of your Mighty I AM THAT I AM. Should this not be your goal, beloved? Oh yes, it should.

     You must think about the price you will pay if you ask for your I AM Presence to enter your temple. But think again, beloved: What price have you [already] paid to be without it?

     Persecution has been there when you were bereft of that Presence. As the Light has increased [in your aura], you have seen not only greater opposition [to that Light] but also a greater bounty from heaven of the power of a cosmos and cosmic legions who have come [distances measured in] light years to defend those who would dare to bring the Light of God to the very depths of the astral plane and even to the levels of Death and Hell itself. For, truly, there are territories on the planet that are nothing more, even in the physical octave.

     Thus, courage is matched by Courage and hope by Hope and Truth for truth. And legions [of angels] come [in answer to your call], and they are granted dispensations by the Great Law commensurate with that which you yourselves have manifested. So the qualities you call forth and the decrees you give create the magnet that compels heaven to respond.

     Such an extraordinary dispensation as the legions of the God Star encamping here in the Holy City! I am in awe of it myself. It is almost a wonder of wonders to those of us who have waited in heaven for so long for such a fiery response [to be given to unascended chelas of the Great White Brotherhood]. Therefore, once again I cheer you on and I say, keep on keeping on.

     Know, then, that if you determine to walk the earth the embodiment of your Christ Self, which is the first step toward being the embodiment of your I AM Presence, you may receive persecutions, you may enter the initiation of the crucifixion, which never comes to a son of God until that Christ is incarnate. But I tell you, beloved, you will also know the initiation of God and Maitreya, the power of the Three-Times-Three, whereupon, [having received it,] Jesus declared, "All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth!"4

     The willingness to pay the price for that Christ Presence, beloved, brings untold rewards. And at a certain point in your career as a son or a daughter of God, it is no longer even lawful for you to deny that Christ incarnate [within you] or to shun the initiations, whose pain is only the precursor of bliss. All challenges come to you to compel you to step up the ladder of initiation, to accelerate; for our God knows when you are ready.

     By meeting the current financial challenge, beloved, you are forced to discard quickly old doubts and fears and cobwebs of wrong programming by the fallen ones. [Meeting the challenge] is compelling, for it is necessary. It is indeed the compulsion of the hour that produces that white-hot heat of desire, the desire to live and to be who you are, the desire to give the gift most precious to beloved El Morya. These [tests] bring out the highest, the noblest, the best [in you as well as those elements of the negative side of self that must be brought] to the surface [to be cast into the flame].

     Therefore, we have contained that great desiring for your victory and we know that you can demonstrate this alchemy. But in so doing, you will discover that to become the alchemist you must set aside certain things. Nevertheless, those whose hearts are on fire with love would rather be the alchemist and let go of the not-alchemist - i.e., the not-self [that is] the not-alchemist.

     Therefore, I stand before you this night. In my hand [is] the gift of alchemy, the gift whereby you may truly become the alchemist in Saint Germain's name to draw forth the abundance of every good and perfect gift5 from the Father-Mother God. Blessed ones, I will not give you the gift unless you first give to me the nongift, the nondeveloped self, the resistive self, the selfish self, the ball of wax of that self that has not accomplished, has not achieved because of negative building[ - the building of negative spirals of thought and feeling into the subconscious].

     Some of you have in your subconscious mind a tower of Babel consisting of the entire negative momentums of all of your past history. Let the tower come tumbling down ere it destroy you, beloved, and divide you so that one part of yourself cannot even talk to the other part of yourself.

     It is good to understand, therefore, [that there are] those who have become attached to their sorrows, to their emotions, to their negatives, to their minuses, to their pride, to old buildings that may have once been grand but are no longer so, to imaginary dreamworlds nonproductive of the common good. I request that you make the call for the collapsing of all of these fantasies that occupy too much of your beings, that bloat your four lower bodies. We need a detoxification of these bodies [from delusion and illusion], beloved.

     Therefore, the prize is in my hand and I will give it to you, perhaps not today, perhaps not tomorrow but in that moment when you want to be the alchemist more than you want to be the elements of your not-self. It is truly a divine exchange - old lamps for new. Yet this lamp is far greater than Aladdin's. This lamp, beloved, is a lamp of true self-knowledge and of [the] science [of the Inner Self. The lamp that I give you, beloved, is the lamp that was yours to begin with - the lamp of your Real Self that sheds the Greater Light of All-Knowing from your I AM Presence.]

     It is true that I am a scientist, beloved, and the first lesson in science that I give to my pupils at our retreat is on the science of the raising up of the Mother Flame. Gently, gently souls of Light begin to raise that sacred fire. And I show them how to be sensitive when that purity, that pure power of the Mother, does begin almost immediately [as it rises up the spinal altar from the base chakra to the crown] to contact records [in the four lower bodies] of the misuses of that very Light.

     And thus our lesson goes, day by day. Each one may not raise that Light any higher than the level of transmutation that has been attained, perhaps [only] one-hundredth of an inch. And within that one-hundredth [of an inch] there is a level of karma that must be transmuted.

     Beloved ones, those who come to my retreat for this training come, of course, [by] soul [travel], in their finer bodies. And for the purposes of this exercise they go back to the level of the inner child of the heart and therefore they are humble and joyous and [unfettered by the outer self]. And in that soul state they, for the love of God and his Christ Jesus, will diligently pursue the exercises of the violet flame, withdrawing Light from [their unlawful] investment [of it] anywhere in this cosmos.

     And little by little this sacred fire rises, never uncomfortably, beloved. But I tell you, with the supporting work that they do, there are days when - by the accumulation and concentration of the Light and the invoking of the cloud of infinite energy6 (much in the same way you do here) - they are able to take certain leaps in the raising of that sacred fire. For their momentum is so great, by and by, that there can be a consuming and a collapsing of certain levels of karma that the rising Mother energy does contact.

     This science is primary; [it] is foundational because all that you would achieve in the science of the Matter cosmos cannot be fully achieved without the sacred fire of the Mother. This is a law, beloved. And if one's works and inventions, [one's] offerings upon the altar and service to Life, or [even one's] decrees for supply are not endowed with the Mother fire, they shall not endure. For the Mother fire counteracts the disintegration spirals of this Matter universe.

     So you see, if you would build forever, you must know that that foundation that you would lay of the Teachings of the Church, of the rituals [and meditations], and of this Home, are truly of Jesus and Gautama. And if these foundations are without the sacred fire, the building shall not endure. But if you endow the foundations with sacred fire, the edifice shall endure, not only in the physical octave but in the spiritual octaves of Light. Thus, with all thy building, build with the sacred fire of the Mother.

     Know, beloved, that you who would enjoy the rejuvenation, the intense illumination and the quickening that comes from the Mother Flame must travel with that Kundalini from the base[-of-the-spine] to the crown chakra every point of the way. You will encounter every past momentum, for this is the ascension flame. And you will always have to answer the question: Do you desire this attainment more than you desire to reengage yourself in your old habits and old ways into which you have invested the Mother energy?

     Thus, you see, beloved, each point of the way the Mother is there - [waiting with] the gift in the right hand, showing you what you will get for your struggle, your striving, your persistence, your noncompromise, and waiting to receive from you with [the left] hand that which it is no longer appropriate for you to retain if you would stand on this next rung of the ladder. The step of a single rung, beloved, may involve one hundred to ten thousand initiations, [depending on how many have been failed on that rung in the past].

     Come to understand the depth of the meaning of the path of God, how moment by moment throughout the day angels of the Mother are ascending and descending upon this spinal altar, even as you have read of Jacob's ladder and the angels ascending and descending [thereon].7 Therefore, beloved, count the seconds and the moments and the minutes and endow them each with the flame of Mastery and of Love and of Comfort and of Giving.

     It is so important to always give a teaching wherever it will be heard, to inject something of wisdom, something of practicality, something of your know-how [into the dialogue]. And if you would be appreciated, beloved, teach the little children. For they yearn to learn your practical skills and what you know, and they are so happy when you take the trouble to teach them; for they are at a most sensitive period of learning, and they are nearer to the earth than you are and nearer to the levels of practicality and [to] the desire of mastering the earth planet.

     Giving to others what you know, blessed hearts, is a requirement, else you will not leave this earth [at the end of this lifetime] but reembody. Never consider, then, that it is too much trouble to teach someone who obviously does not have the expertise or the understanding to solve a certain equation or problem that you do.

     Be humble, beloved, before the ignorance of others. I say, be humble before it. Consider it, then, a vacuum that you can fill with joy, as you would pour the most precious wine into another's cup. Be humble before it, beloved, for God, who has given you the gift of wisdom, may also take from you the gift of wisdom if you do not share it by breaking the bread of Life.

     It is essential that those who have gifts in the trades and in every area of human knowledge volunteer to teach the children and to teach the adults, to teach the senior citizens [in order] to keep this flame of the crown chakra ever burning. For to impart what one knows, beloved, is to empty the cup of wisdom that God might fill it again with greater knowledge. The cup of wisdom that is not shared begins to ferment and then it may no longer be drunk.

     May you understand that it is essential that you look at the Cosmic Clock, consider where the sun has shone [at your birth] as your sun sign of this embodiment, and know thyself. What are your very best momentums? What are the things you do best? Consider on what line of the [Cosmic] Clock they fit. [For I gave that Clock to the Messenger for your self-knowledge in anticipating the cycles of your karma and your Dharma.] Then make up your mind, as an element of your definite major purpose in life, that you will master that line as one of the twelve [paths of the] disciples of Jesus Christ and that you will make your ascension on that line.

     Blessed ones, it is essential that you do attain God-mastery on that [line] of the Clock you select. And when you do, beloved, lines of force will come out of that one position to contact and [connect and] strengthen every other line of the Clock.

     Having mastered one, it will be easier to master the second, [and the third]. And with each succeeding [line you take on], beloved, although I admit there are major difficulties along the way as you encounter the line where you have the least attainment and the worst of your karma, [it will be still easier]. It is well, then, to have a momentum built on those lines where you see yourself having served before. [For these momentums will serve you as you work towards your self-mastery on the lines where you have a lesser attainment.]

     This is the value of following the Seven Chohans and the Dhyani Buddhas, recognizing their place in your life. Setting your mark on [the lines of the Chohans and the Buddhas], beloved, you will never fail to call for the binding of the dweller-on-the-threshold [charted on each line] or to magnify the Lord of the God-quality [on each line].

     It is well to choose [the line of] your sun sign [as the first line you master, but it is] not mandatory, beloved. Search your own heart and remember you must not come empty-handed to Serapis Bey's temple or before the Lords of Karma. You must be able to say:

     I have fought the good fight8 and, in fulfilling all other things of my karma, I have won the prize of this line and I offer it to you, Serapis Bey, and the brothers of your retreat. For I would come in profound gratitude before the ascension flame to add my momentum of the Flame of the Divine Mother's attainment on this line to that of those adepts of Luxor in gratitude for their service. Thus, they might have in me a reward for keeping the flame of the ascension on planet earth for those who would enter in.

     Now, beloved, I meditate upon the Eternal Logos. For, you know, that Logos, that Word with Brahman in the beginning,9 is the Great Shakti, [the Feminine Principle,] of God. And so I am the counterpart of the Trinity and I come very close to this Matter plane. I am in it much of the time, beloved, yet I carry the apex of [the] highest attainment of the Godhead with me. You can see why I bring not only grace and mercy but also the fierce judgment of the Divine Mother. For this is grace and mercy. This is, beloved, the purpose of the Mother Flame in you in this octave.

     When you have fought and won and attained [the raising up of] this [sacred] fire, beloved, you will count yourself as three or five - such strength, such ability to give and serve and cast aside the negatives of a world shall you have!

     There are some things that come from heaven and from the depths of your being that can manifest in you, beloved. The price for the single pearl is all of thyself.10 If you want these attainments, these siddhis, or powers, of the Divine Mother, you must want them more than the entire weight of negative momentum that is in [your four lower bodies] that opposes your getting of them. This is the showdown, beloved, this is the telling.

     "Oh, I would like to do this. Oh, I would like to be that. Someday I will get around to it." Well, this is not even desire at all, it is not even worthy of being called a desire. It is wishful thinking that has no roots and will wither as the sun reaches its zenith.

     Take care, beloved, when you express a desire for more of God, that you think about it, that you enter a meditative and philosophical mode. And see if you cannot say to yourself, "This God-mastery I want more than anything else in the world, for I see that with it not only will I be able to help all people but I will also be able to have those things that I thought I had while I retained those elements of my personality that were and are antithetical to the fulfillment of that desire and do prevent it day by day." When you reach for the star of God-mastery, beloved, most of the things that you had to give up will also return to you; for the one who is the master of himself does not want.

     Now you may see the great sphere of my emerald Causal Body glowing before you as a magnet of Love and as a sphere of manifest science and mathematics and their proof.

     I ask each of you, then, to take this occasion of the needs of yourselves and your Church to rise to the level of being true scientists of Spirit and Matter to prove the Law, to conquer fear and doubt and death, to freely give as you have freely received, to pray for ingenuity and practicality, to go after the education that is necessary to increase your earning power - to do all things to warrant the supply returning to you again and again through the heart of service, the heart of faith, the heart [that belongs to] God.

     This great sphere of Light shall rest over this place as a magnet of my being, whereby I shall prove to you what God will do when you prove to him through my Immaculate Heart what you will do [to achieve your goal in life].

     I tell you, beloved, this financial challenge can be the springboard to your fearlessness, to your victory, to your peace, to your mastery and to your real ability to convey the Teachings to all whom you meet, for you will have applied [the principles of Saint Germain's alchemy] in crisis and you will have proven that they work.

     Where is the slothful one and the dullard and the rebel who says, "The Teaching does not work, the decrees do not work, nothing works"? Well, what that one ought to say is: "I do not work, because I do not desire to see them work. For if [the Teaching and the decrees] should work for me and I should work them, I should then have to change my stance and become who I really am. And I do not have the courage to become who I am."

     The science of God, the science of the Mother, the science of the Immaculate Concept that I taught Mary Baker Eddy is truly workable only by those who want it to work, who know it works, who believe it works and who are willing to roll up their sleeves and make it work even to the extent [that] my Jesus [worked], who sweat, as it were, great drops of blood in Gethsemane.11 Only when you work to the level of [a sufficiency of] that sacred fire burning within you to achieve a cause will the Law work for you, beloved.

     Get to the root of your desires and recognize that the negative desires are the negative programmings of yourself, yes, but moreover of parents and [authority figures and] ancestors and fallen ones. [For often] you have thought [that these negatives] were your own.

     I tell you truly, the Lord Gautama Buddha set the foundation for Jesus, my Son, in unfolding the cause of human suffering, that being inordinate desire.12 You do not suffer when your desires are only God-desires but when you have lesser desires and they are not fulfilled, lesser expectations from those around you and they do not come through, then of course, beloved, you suffer.

     Therefore, the desiring of God relieves all suffering, for you desire only to be in that Presence and apart from that God you are miserable. And therefore you begin to grow in [fervor and] intensity [for the mission], and as the devils come to assail you, you knock them down by the mighty arm of Hercules! And each and every one that would stop you in fulfilling that desire to be [all one in] God meets with a greater desire from within you, and thus [right] desire kindles [right] desire!

     And as that desire is God's desiring in you and is the true Light, you come under greater and greater attack [from the forces of anti-God-desire working through people who have no desire for God and no self-discipline to get that God-desire for themselves. These, beloved, resent your all-oneness with God and they covet your Light (that is God's Light). But they want the Light without giving allegiance to the Light and when they get it they consume it on their lusts.13 I say, do not part with your Light, your resources, your money or your sacred labor except it be in the service of the Light].

     You must prove to God again and again and again that no matter what the attack, no matter what the force, no matter what the negative, God in you is the greater positive, God in you is that great Christ Presence, that I AM THAT I AM. [Yes, you must prove to God that you will not surrender his Light to those individuals who come in the name of the Light but are servants of Darkness.]

     Do you see, beloved, when you state your desire for God, then God says, "Prove that you love me more than anything, more than anyone, more than all the world that could be given to you by the fallen ones who will tempt you with that offer."

     If God is to give you all of himself, he must have all of yourself. Thus, the keystone of the arch is the first commandment: Thou shalt have no other gods before me.14 Thou shalt have no other desire before me, no other love before me, no other mind before me, no other accomplishment, no other goal before the attainment of myself in thee! And when you have that, you will have the All-in-all.

     Seek, then, beloved, to become the goose that laid the golden egg. Then you will never be without golden eggs. Then you will have and possess the cosmic egg. Then you will know the true power of the Mother in your midst, the Mother Flame in your heart. It is the power, beloved, of fertility, creativity, multiplicity, redundancy! Go forth, beloved. Produce one golden egg and you will be able to produce a million. Therefore, seek not the egg but to become the Mother.

     I AM the Flame of Mother with you. Portion by portion, appropriate my Mother Flame unto yourself. Do this by being the tender heart, the gentle heart, the great strength of Kali, the great wisdom of Sarasvati, the great abundance of Lakshmi and the full-wielding power of the sword of Kali, of Durga to defeat the enemy of the little ones.

     I tell you how you achieve the power of Durga and of Kali. [You desire it with all your being] because it is intolerable to you that there should be a single abortion on this planet [or] that there should be the abuse of a single child! And if you feel helpless before [the forces of Antichrist that promote abortion] and can do nothing about [them], take stock of what is in you and in your life and see what you would give up to be able to have the power of the Divine Mother to stop this deadly sin against the Holy Ghost, against the little child upon this planet.

     I think you understand my message, beloved. If you want the pearl of great price, sell all those old human momentums if the world wants them, or build a gigantic bonfire that reaches unto the Mount Kailasa and to the heart of Shiva [and cast them into it].

     Yes, beloved, I will be watching to see what you desire and how you determine to get it, for this is how we grade the souls who are tutored in our retreat. You must not only raise the fire of the Mother but [also] do something with it to save your soul and the little ones of God, who need your care. Begin by comforting Life, being kind, thoughtful, careful and always polite and [especially by being] always kind in your speech. Let your interchanges be gentle ones and always let the soft answer turn away wrath.15 It is well, beloved.

     I am your Teacher and I shall be one of the Ascended Lady Masters present with you at Summit University, for I have somewhat to say about this Literacy Army.16 And I have some judgment to bring upon the fallen ones who deliberately deny the gift of speech and of reading and of writing to the little children. Through your calls to me on this subject, beloved, we will once and for all rout the look-say method from the schools of the world!

     [16-second applause]

     New lamps for old, beloved - it is the great key. And of course I bring the true and real lamp of knowledge [and take from you the lamp of self-serving].

     I seal you in the third eye. By my right hand receive [this blessing], beloved, for I am helping you to clear the unclear concepts, the murkiness, the out-of-alignment vision and the fuzziness. This, too, [this clarity of mind and vision,] is the faculty of the sacred fire raised up. May you desire it also.

     I now join Lady Master Venus and the committee, not small, of Ascended Lady Masters who meet in the Retreat of the Divine Mother over this place.17 Come and counsel with us in the coming hours, beloved, and make the call to be taken there so that you will learn how to teach the children of the whole world what they must know. I rejoice in your coming and in [the next] quarter of Summit University.

     For this cause did I ascend, that I might descend again with a momentum of Light whereby I could once again make the difference. May you see [to it] that your ascension here and now is defined by the ascension of the sacred fire of the Mother on your spinal altar. This is the first ascension and by it you engage in the weaving of the Deathless Solar Body. With this ascension, you already descend again in this embodiment with so many fruits of your Tree of Life to give. The next ascension, beloved, is on the path of initiation, whereby those that come to the Christed One fully clothed with the bridal veil and wedding garment do ascend [to the heart of God].

     There are a series of ascents that, when accomplished victoriously, require the soul to descend again to give of herself in the world. These happen, a number of them in a lifetime over [the course of] many embodiments, until in the final altar call the bride comes Home, nevermore to go out to the lowest levels yet to move again as an ascended one in the midst of the people. 'Tis then you will wish for and see to it that you have one and many instruments on earth.

     For your instrumentation of my Immaculate Heart wherever you are, I am grateful. And that Immaculate Heart always affirms the positive potential of anyone and everyone despite all evidence of the negatives to the contrary. The power of the Mother's Immaculate Heart is greater than all of these, for it is God's desiring through the Mother for his little ones to be perfected in Love.

     May you go forth and see to it that in your life love is perfected in Love.

Bracketed material denotes words unspoken yet implicit in the dictation, added by the Messenger under Mother Mary's direction for clarity in the written word.] Throughout these notes PoW is the abbreviation for Pearls of Wisdom.

36.1  Novena to Beloved El Morya - September 16, 1990

Vol. 33 No. 36 - Novena to Beloved El Morya - September 16, 1990

     Novena to Beloved El Morya

     The Messenger has noted that she often receives personal mail from chelas around the world asking advice about various circumstances in their lives and whether or not they should take a certain course of action. When she brings these questions to the heart of El Morya, his consistent response is that the individual should give a novena. The Master sometimes recommends five minutes or an hour a day of giving specific decrees - or perhaps one or both sides of one of the El Morya tapes. The instructions vary, based on the individual chela's temperament, his needs, and ability to fulfill a certain matrix.

     What Mother has concluded from this and what she would like everyone to know is that El Morya wants to help each one of us but we must give him the energy. El Morya desires to help his chelas but they are not giving him enough decrees for the Great Law to allow him to expend the necessary energy in their behalf to bring about the dispensations they are seeking.

     On July 4, 1990, Saint Germain told us:

     I speak to you of El Morya now for his dedication to each and every one of you, for his heart's love. El Morya is there and able and [willing and] free to help you in any situation. I ask, however, that you "pay in advance" by giving his decrees and using the tapes the Messengers and chelas have provided for this purpose, giving to El Morya the energy he requires to intercede in your behalf.

     Is a nine-day novena to El Morya too much to ask for his entering into your life and world to solve these very financial problems and to help you multiply your supply and to help you in your consciousness? ...

     Now then, if you will give to El Morya the due that is due him in your love and decrees, you will find that these problematical questions can come to an end and you can move forward.

     What a blessed dispensation! And how grateful we are to receive from the heart of our beloved Guru the assistance we so very much need to triumph over every problem.

     The Messenger is recommending that chelas of El Morya and readers of the Pearls of Wisdom begin a nine-day novena to El Morya. She asks that you bring every problem and concern of your heart - all the matters you thought were beyond resolution or seemed impossible. Lay them upon the altar these nine days. Withdraw your light and energy from them as you surrender them unto God, and then make the call to beloved El Morya with faith that our Father and the ascended hosts truly have the answer to our every need.

     Below is an outline that Mother has suggested for this novena. It takes approximately forty-five minutes, once a day. You may choose to follow this matrix or adapt it, perhaps adding other decrees and songs and the special element of your own heart's devotion. The vigil may be as long (or short) as you wish and may be held at any time of the day. As you give, so may you receive.

     Begin each session by giving your calls to the heart of El Morya on all personal burdens, the problems affecting the Church and Community, including current legal matters and the need for supply, as well as for the cutting free of the Lightbearers.

     1- Song to El Morya. You may choose from:

     "Master Morya," song 192 (El Morya tape 1)

     "The Guru Song," song 210C (El Morya tape 1)

     (song 190 in the new song book)

     "El Morya, Thou Chohan of Power," song 198 (El Morya tape 1)

     "More," song 210A (El Morya tape 1)

     (song 188 in the new song book)

     "El Morya, We Love You," song 197 (El Morya tape 1)

     "Gratitude to Our Master Morya," song 193 (El Morya tape 2)

     "O Presence of the Diamond Heart," song 202 (El Morya tape 3)

     The following songs are optional and may be added to your novena; however, they should not replace the songs to El Morya listed above:

     "Beyond the Blue Horizon," song 210D (El Morya tape 1)

     (song 191 in the new song book)

     "Forget-Me-Not," song 209 (El Morya tape 3)

     "Light Will Overcome," song 207 (El Morya tape 3)

     "The Will of God Is Good," song 200 (El Morya tape 1)

     2- Prayer for the bonding to El Morya's heart (see p. 204 of this volume)

     3- Decree 10.03, "I AM God's Will" (El Morya tape 1)

     Alternate every other day with:

     Decree 10.09, "El Morya, Thou Chohan of Power" (El Morya tape 1)

     (If you prefer, these decrees may be given without the tape 40 times each, or as many times as you like.)

     4- Mantra:

     "I AM, I AM, I AM the resurrection and the life of my finances (3x)

now made manifest in my hands and use today!" (give for 5 min.)

     5- Song to Lanello (optional):

     "To Our Beloved Lanello," song 514 (El Morya tape 2)

     "Hail to Thee, Lanello!" song 516 (El Morya tape 2)

     6- A Kuan Yin mantra (see Kuan Yin's Crystal Rosary)

     Note: Because decree 10.09 takes less time to give than decree 10.03, you may wish to fill in the extra time on the days you give 10.09 by also giving decree 6.02, "Summit Lighthouse Success and Expansion," with verse 9. Or you may choose to give decree 50.05, "Beloved Cyclopea, Beholder of Perfection" (El Morya tape 3).

36.2  I AM the Witness - September 16, 1990

Vol. 33 No. 36 - I AM the Witness - September 16, 1990

     I AM the Witness

     A True Happening

     By a Grateful Mother

     Part I

     The Pain of a Mother's Heart

     When my son Bradley was 14, he chose to live with his father and stepmother. (I would not allow rock music in our home, neither did I drink or smoke. I seemed to have a limited capacity to understand and deal with the needs of my son at that time.) I could only pray that his choice was for his highest good.

     When he was 16 years old, the neighbor boy told me that Bradley was smoking marijuana and probably taking other drugs as well. I couldn't believe it, didn't want to believe it, but when it finally penetrated that this was probably the case, I was shaken beyond words.

     I went to the altar in my home and cried to God to help me to help him. How could I help him when I became paralyzed at the sound of the word "drugs"? How could I help him when in the first 14 years of his life, I had not shown him a better way? Oh God, take dominion here. I cried my heart out. I called to God to forgive me for having allowed this to happen.

     After baring my soul to God, I was finally able to pray and decree. I prayed to Mother Mary to take care of him - to protect him, direct his path so that he would see a better vision to follow, to give him a sense of self-respect and responsibility. I asked Mother Mary to give me the ability to see her Immaculate Concept for his life and to hold it in spite of all outer appearances.

     I began to sing songs to Mother Mary, and I began to feel her Presence very close to me; and the sobbing, tears, and aching heart were beginning to be still within me.

     Part II

     The Appearance of Mother Mary

     At a certain point, while I was singing I realized that the whole living room was singing - there was more sound than I could make by myself. I heard harmony, and the music seemed transcendent. I felt tingling all through me and felt a strong presence of comfort and blessing.

     Mother Mary stood before me holding a child and I heard her say, "I AM HIS MOTHER." She remained before me as we communicated just like I would to any person face-to-face. She received my broken heart - took it from me. She impressed upon me very specific things that I would need to do and remember.

     She gave me a vision of what it is like to be a Mother of all God's sons and daughters. She impressed upon me what the Immaculate Concept means - that it is the image and likeness of God in which she holds every one of his sons and daughters through her Immaculate Heart. She gave me hope. She raised me into a state of ecstasy and a full knowledge of the victory of my son and told me to affirm my full acceptance of his victory that very day.

     Over three hours had passed as I had poured out my broken heart and moved through an eternity in prayer and communion.

     She stood only a foot away from me, and I felt totally wrapped in her Presence. It seemed like she was before me for at least five minutes, and then as she disappeared she said again, "I AM HIS MOTHER." I will never forget the sound of her voice speaking those words to me. Just as she departed I heard a tiny click near where my altar candle was burning.

     I continued in meditation by singing songs of gratitude and victory, of praise and adoration to God.

     When I went to blow out the candle at the conclusion of my meditation I saw a tiny piece of wax that had fallen from the candle. It was shaped in the same form as Mother Mary had appeared to me - a mother with a child in her arms. Her gift to me - that I would always remember her promise to me and my commitment to her.

     Part III

     Communion with My Son

     Many times over a period of five years I took out the wax impression to become closer to the reality of Mother Mary's promise to me and of my commitment to her. Because word from Bradley always broke my heart - he was living in such an unreal world, and was very troubled.

     During this five years he fought life and death. He hadn't been able to keep a job, was getting into motorcycle accidents, was nearly stabbed in a bar fight, had little respect for his parents or family, wore long hair and dirty clothes with no awareness of being sloppy or deprived, lost his balance and physical fitness, and on and on. There was no doubt he was in trouble.

     I could only strengthen my faith and trust that he would be protected until the day when he would find it within himself to turn around. I could only strengthen my faith and trust that Mother Mary would go to him, counsel him, help him identify the potential of God within him, and inspire him to fulfill his divine plan.

     Our opportunity came in January of 1977.

     Bradley came to visit me while I was living in Pasadena. He met me outside the Church after a Sunday service and went through the receiving line with me, and there met Mother. Mother said warmly to him, "I'm so grateful to meet you, Bradley." And he was touched.

     We went backpacking and camping in the San Gabriel Mountains. We had a great time enjoying each other and sharing the outdoors, the beauty and peace of the waterfalls, exhilaration of the mountains and the winter's cold.

     We ended our first long day of hiking, set up camp, and were retired into our two-man tent by 9 p.m. I was full of joy as I went to God in prayer that night. I knew this was a cosmic opportunity of my life. I prayed to Mother Mary to overshadow us, and then I proceeded to pray and commune with every Ascended Master, elemental and Cosmic Being I had ever heard of.

     I asked for a dispensation to be given to Bradley. I asked for forgiveness of all wrong and injustice that I had ever caused him in any embodiment. I asked for a dispensation where he could be given a new birth, free of any impositions that I might have placed upon him. I asked that if he was caught in a trap of drugs, that it be broken, and if I could take upon myself any burden from him that would free him, then let me take the burden, whatever it would be. I offered my body as the womb wherein a new birth could occur.

     My communion continued in ecstasy because of the total awareness of heaven on earth, because of the closeness of Mother Mary, the elementals and angels. Soon I realized that I was experiencing a sharp physical pain in my right side. The pain moved to my heart and then to my left arm. Soon, I was paralyzed with pain - barely able to breathe.

     I felt I was dying. I knew the extreme agony of this pain, yet I was consumed in the Presence of God all around me. I felt energy moving through my body. I saw the cells dissolve and be consumed in light. I saw Bradley enveloped, as in a white oval shaped egg, and I saw angels minister to both of us.

     Many treasured visions and communications were given to me during this night. Since it seemed apparent that I was going to die, and if this were really my last hours, I had a lot of thanking God to do. The night was spent in prayers of gratitude, then prayers of intercession for every single person I could remember, and for every cause that I knew was noble and pure and God's will; prayers for new life for every son and daughter of God.

     Paralyzed, and in extreme agony with physical pain, I was relieved when Bradley spoke to me at about 6 o'clock in the morning. "Are you awake, Mom?"

     I said, "I'm awake. In fact I haven't been to sleep." Immediately after I told him the pain I was experiencing, he comforted me and said he would be right back. He was going for help.

     Within about two hours I heard a helicopter circling overhead and then realized it was landing very close to where I was. Bradley came running into the tent. "Are you okay, Mother?" "Yes." He fell facedown beside me and said, "Praise God!"

     He had actually run nine miles to find help at a Ranger Station. He returned with a rescue helicopter and seven men.

     The emergency hospital tests could find no physical reason for the pain, and doctors prescribed rest for a few days.

     I believe that I was allowed to experience as much pain as I could handle for the transmutation of a certain amount of karma. And I am ever grateful for the opportunity.

     Part IV

     The Miracle

     In May of 1977, I received a phone call from Bradley saying that he had committed himself to the hospital for alcohol and drug treatment.

     The next part of this story is written by Bradley.

     I really couldn't put this on paper until Bradley had reached a point of maturity where I could share it personally with him. And that time has come.

     Bradley put himself through school, received a master's degree in psychology, is studying for his doctorate and now serves in a city as the Executive Director of the Council on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse, is married and has a precious one-year-old son, doesn't smoke or drink, listens to well-chosen classical music and is careful to get proper nutrition and exercise, and is living a productive life.

     Continuing chapters are being written - all in deep gratitude for Mother Mary's Immaculate Concept and miracle of love.

     I tell every mother whose heart is breaking from a child's involvement with drugs and alcohol that there is hope - and to seek it in the heart of Mother Mary, the heart of our Beloved Mother, and within their own heart.

     Thank you, Mother Mary. Thank you, Beloved Mother. Thank you, Father. Thank you, Bradley.


Footnotes:

1 During the service prior to the dictation, the Messenger announced: "Mother Mary says that on this day, August 15, 1990, marking her ascension, she has received a dispensation from God to grant to each one of you a boon. And so you will have to consider what is the most important request that you can make of Mother Mary, not alone for your private person but for the Church and its membership. El Morya has stated our need for funds. And we know that many Keepers of the Flame also are in need of funds. ... I think that we all have to realize that our individual indebtedness affects all of us because we are one. ... I know that sometimes when you do not receive the dispensations you ask for or the sponsorship from El Morya, it is because of your physical monetary indebtedness as well as your karmic indebtedness. So you need to consider the boon that you request in terms of that boon putting you in a much better place to support the Brotherhood, to do their work, to support the Church and to have less karma upon you so that you may be subject to new grants and dispensations. ... So I ask that you make this decision advisedly, for after all, when have you had a Master step forward and say he could give you a boon? I can't remember it myself in many a season." Each one receiving this message from Mother Mary may request of her a boon, a grant or dispensation - i.e., a divine favor.
2 In the early days of Atlantis, Mother Mary was embodied as a priestess in the Temple of Truth. As a temple virgin, she studied the healing arts and the science of flow and tended the emerald fires of the Fifth Ray. It was through her magnification of the Christ Light and the Mother Flame that the healing focus in the Temple of Truth was sustained; through her daily devotions, its emanations were expanded throughout Atlantis.

16 In 1986, the Department of Education estimated that from 17 million to 21 million American adults cannot read; 72 million, one out of three adult Americans, are not competent in reading. El Morya's solution to this problem of illiteracy in America is a Literacy Army to begin at Summit University. The Messenger has defined the goals of this army: "From now on, graduates of any quarter of Summit University will be Good Samaritans who are part of a 'Literacy Army.' They will always be ready to help any child they meet learn to read and spell." Summit University students will study the reading program in use at the Montessori International school at the Royal Teton Ranch, which presents phonetic lessons based on Maria Montessori's teaching philosophy as well as on the Spalding method. The Messenger has said, "We cannot enter a golden age unless we have a literate America."
