You Must Attain Fusion with Your Holy Christ Self

     Walk with Jesus in the Resurrection Flame

     A Giant Grid of Light, a Cradle for the Manchild

     Initiation for Every Keeper of the Flame

     Now in the fullness of the Eye of God, I descend. I would place the eye of my body of Light centered in this retreat and heart.

     I AM Cyclopea/I AM Virginia. We are the manifestation of Elohim1 [serving] on [and embodying] the Fifth Ray of God. We contain all Light, for such is the definition of Elohim. We take in to our being all that is Church Universal and Triumphant, worlds without end.

     It is not comprehensible to your mind, yet you might find a point of co-measurement to experience what is the City Foursquare, what is the meaning of Church Universal and Triumphant. It is a cosmic cube. It is the vessel of the Body of God, even the Mystical Body of God, the entire Spirit of the Great White Brotherhood, made up of all Lightbearers in all worlds. This is the meaning of Church:2 [it is] the temple of God and of the godly and of the God-manifestation.

     This Church exists independent of this earth body [and] yet [it] does take in every child of Light, every son and daughter of God. Fear not, then, for there is no separation in death or dying or in compartments of karma that seem to separate loved one from loved one.

     Blessed ones, discover the point of being [that is] between the heart and the solar-plexus chakras. Discover that point, which is another point of centering, beloved, and know that it is a point of contact with Elohim.

     Let, then, the legacy of this Church Universal be unto all who reach out, whose hands reach up to God as Elohim. Our hands reach out to receive them, yet this Mystical Body of the Church must provide the intermediary between those reaching for God and God reaching for them. This is the meaning of the Christ.

     You have been called by Jesus many times and in many ways to become that Christ.3 Yet, beloved, though the footprints are clear and the teaching plain, it is necessary for you to focus on [those footprints and on] that teaching so that you may understand this daily process of the soul's weaving a Deathless Solar Body, weaving a garment that Christ may enter.

     There is no more important goal for the communicant of this Church than to be fused to the Holy Christ Self. Not many will you find who have achieved this distinction. [But those who do] achieve it, beloved, must walk the earth in the expectancy of [receiving] the full initiations received by Jesus Christ.

     This anticipation should in no way deter you from seeking that union; for without it, beloved, your life may be fraught with uncertainty. Without the fusing to the Holy Christ Self, there is not the certainty of union with God, the Mighty I AM Presence, when your course is through.

     We are Elohim called to quicken the inner sight that you may know the presence of the Christed One, that you may understand that until you achieve this fusing to your Holy Christ Self it is necessary that you have with you the one who bears the mantle, the office and the authority of the Guru. For that, beloved, does give you the security of two [extra] hands - one to hold your own, one to hold the hand of your Holy Christ Self and therefore to establish the connection until you are able.

     To attain this fusing with your Christ, you must seek to be Christlike. It is well to keep with your Bible at your bedside a copy of the book The Imitation of Christ by Thomas à Kempis. It is well to assimilate that Body and Blood of Christ even by reading a few words and taking in those words as you fall asleep, thereby determining that you shall go forth to be God-taught in the hours of rest.

     And your soul shall return infilled with the fervor to realize a practical Christhood of words and works, of kindness and compassion, of upliftment, of understanding, of taking no offense in the untransmuted self of a brother or a sister but always having [available] the fountain of Light [flowing] from the very center of being. [This is] true holy water that pours from the Christ in you to [give to that one to] drink, to [anoint that one's body that that one might] truly imbibe [through the chakras] the elixir of shafts of Light that come forth from the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

     Blessed ones, moment by moment feel the pressing in upon you of the Body of Elohim and of the Blood itself, the Light essence of Alpha and Omega, which we share with you. Listen to my words, beloved. Feel the weight of the geometrization of the God Flame of Elohim. Feel, then, how every word is chosen that is spoken; for when we speak, the Light, the message, the teaching does reach the boundaries of the Matter cosmos.

     You must also consider that by the power that you have increased in your beings in exercising the science of the spoken Word, you also empower your words with a momentum that does move far and beyond your immediate aura to influence life. That is why when you reach this level on the Path of having restored to you the gift of the spoken Word, karma comes more swiftly; for those who misuse [this gift] must learn the lessons immediately and understand that this is God's sacred science.

     When you are deliberate in your speech and not careless, when you refrain from the idle word but speak only something well chosen when [something] must be spoken, you shall no longer make the karma of the idle words [made by the fallen ones whom Jesus rebuked], for which you shall give account4 before the Lords of Karma.

     Knowing, then, the great assimilation of Light that has taken place for many decades in ye all, you must realize that the forward progress of your soul's entering in to the fullness of the Holy Christ Presence does surely rest upon this square [of the spoken Word] that does form the foundation of thy platform in matter. And now the squaring of the circle and now the increase that is desired. The increase can come to anyone.

     We initiate individually this night, for all are on different rungs of the ladder and mastering different points of the Law. We come to initiate all who call themselves Keepers of the Flame. And I tell you, beloved, this initiation will find you at the very point where you have the greatest strength and the greatest weakness - strength with which to receive the initiation, to assimilate it and to become in physical manifestation more of who you are.

     The initiation will take you at that weakest point when, if you remember this dictation, you will summon your greatest strength, you will defeat that element of weakness that is your vulnerability and you will move on! You will move on in the ascending cycles of being!

     Blessed ones, the universe awaits thy exploration - such vastness of the Mind of God that you would enter [into] in your field of concentration! These doors are waiting to be opened unto you. Angels guard them. They carry the key. Man may not enter, woman may not enter who does not guard the harmony of the cosmic honor flame.

     The test is not to be moved by whatever assails, whatever disrupts, whatever abruptly changes the course you are on. Be as ready as a star athlete to receive on the moment this initiation, beloved, for we must move on at this quadrant of the year from the place where we were at summer solstice. We must have the step-up. We must have those who can hold the Light at a higher level. For the astral sea is rising, beloved, and we must see to it that the walls are higher, the chelas stand taller, the bastions are defended and the angels of Light tarry for the Victory.

     Let the fusion with your Christ become the all of your desiring. Would you know Melchizedek, king of Salem and priest of the Most High God?5 Then I say, leave behind you the lesser preoccupations. Fulfill all responsibilities to the Law above and below, but let go of those things that keep you from entering through the doors that wait and wait. Let thy desiring be so great to enter in to this joy of thy Lord that on the very point of the brow that determination and that vision are one and you know that all that you do and say and are is toward that goal of fusion.

     You must attain it in this life, beloved. There are many reasons, but I simply state what is accurate for you, each one. You must attain that fusion in this life. Seek it with all your heart. Gauge your steps, your activities always as opportunities to be self-emptied that the Christ might enter in and you might be that sweet expression, that strong expression, that needful and wise expression, that love in action. When it is time for this fusion, which you have called the alchemical marriage, the Lord will come to you.

     Beloved one, this fusion cannot be undone.6 Therefore, all of Cosmos must be certain that that alchemical marriage is forever.

     Church Universal and Triumphant must be built upon the rock of this manifestation, this initiation. Those, then, who have not attained to it must call and call again for the overshadowing presence of that Christ.

     As the Christ does descend, placing the mantle upon you from time to time, you are building the inner ties and connections. When the Christ does withdraw, for you are in the [throes of the] tossing and tumbling of the karmic self, then you must seek and find [Him] again and again and again, beloved, until there is no lesser state to return to, for you have overcome all.

     Count the hours, the twenty-four. Know thyself. Know the geometry of thy being in those hours. Keep the vigil and discover what is the difficulty or the weakness when that vigil is not kept. You will find cycles in the day and hours in the day when you are always able to pass your tests; you will find other hours where with regularity you may fail your tests. This has to do with the cycles and the sine wave of energy flow in the four lower bodies. To know thyself and to anticipate these cycles will lead to greater victories and less sense of worthlessness for the failure.

     There is no reason why those who have this Path and Teaching cannot master time and space where they are, cannot make more rapid strides. It is but the perception, or lack of it, [that holds you back]: it is but the sense of limitation displacing the Limitless One and his limitless energy.

     But the overwhelming gift that secures this attainment, beloved, is the gift of "unconditional love." That is not to say there are not conditions for the release of God's love to you, but it is to say that you must love unconditionally the soul that is in the state of overcoming and leave to God the chastening rod, the preparation of the soul, the leading of the soul.

     There is a love that must be held in heart for the God of which the individual is made, the very Life that flows. There is a love to be extended. It is not a love of compromise or agreement with the lower self. It is a love that is steady as a giant tree in the earth that is unmoved with the comings and the goings of the wild animals in the forest. There is a love that shapes your words, your expression, your giving and receiving and sustains your communion with God. Be aware, then, of sharpness, for sharpness sent forth is the sharpness that returns.

     During this speaking7 we have built a giant grid of light. It is a reward to this Community for labors won, not lost, beloved. And this grid of light, as the presence of Elohim of the Fifth Ray, can hold far greater Light than you have held before without it. It does encompass the spiritual body of the Community as well as the physical body. It will hold a weight of Light to which you must become accustomed.

     I trust you will not go out from this place and forget my words and my warning that to be comfortable in the grid of light and the greater Light that it shall hold for this Community, you must move into that grid and that greater Light, else find yourself uncomfortable, untethered and not having the rapprochement with your Holy Christ Self. [As a result,] you may determine, for seeming practical reasons, to displace yourself from Maitreya's Mystery School and be elsewhere.

     Therefore, beloved ones, as the warning was given already in July, so it is given again. For Church Universal and Triumphant to remain in this octave, there must be greater Light, greater support from Hierarchy, a greater judgment in the earth and the dividing of the way, individual by individual, of Light and Darkness.

     You are up to the challenge! It is the desire, beloved. Do you have the desire to meet this gift of Elohim with joy? ["Yes!"]

     O beloved, take moments, then, in your day to breathe the sacred fire breath, to give the simple call, to venture in the outside and take in the wind and the sun and the elements and blend yourself with the universal Holy Spirit of God. Reacquaint yourself with your reason for being and why you placed your foot upon the threshold of our retreat and did enter. This was one door [to Hierarchy that was] open to you in this life and you passed through it to much initiation and hard work and inner joy, [eventually coming] to the place of immense self-knowledge in the outer, which before was only on the inner.

     We have been able to give you this, beloved, through the aura of the Messengers. Both are always present on the altar, and by those auras there has been the stepping down through their Christ Presence of many truths and intimations of Reality and the inner sense of Cosmos.

     You have awareness, beloved, that is second nature; and yet, a short while ago that awareness of the auric egg around you was not there. Do not defile the temple of God which ye are8 with discord or dissonance, for angels move about and assist you mightily when you refrain from [engaging] the stresses that come from the pulls and the pushes of the desire body.

     You are making progress, beloved. I congratulate not a few who have indeed passed what to them were severe tests in these intervening months. Well done, I say! Keep the faith, for the mark you have won will now be tested by the Tempter from the dark side.

     Those who are the "have-nots" have nothing to lose and nothing to defend. You are the "haves."9 Therefore you must guard well your supply, your Light, your levels of attainment. For the have-nots will always covet the abundance of the haves, seeking to gain it not by oneness with God but by fraudulent means, for it is "too much effort" and they are "too tired" to make the same effort you have made to be with Jesus in the holy mountain of God.

     The cosmos is a better place, especially in this sector of this solar system, for the great victory of your labor regarding the Twelfth Planet. This, beloved, provided a stupendous arena of a vast light show for many evolutions beyond who watched with wonder, some in joy and some in anger. Let them look back in anger. We look back and forward in joy!

     Until you come into the consonance of your Divine Reality in Alpha and Omega, we, Elohim of God, who are God, tarry with you for only one reason - that some among you have merit and merit this presence. May you know, beloved, that the Law shows no compromise when it comes to the interaction of Elohim with unascended lifestreams. Elohim may come when [and where] there is [soul] merit.

     Be grateful for the blessed in your midst and you yourself will become more blessed. Blessedness is a perpetual state of grace. Blessedness is that state which is approaching fusion with the Holy Christ Self. Blessedness is the joy of the overcomers, those who see the star and do not shirk the responsibility of karma or the work that must be accomplished while the Light is nigh.10

     One hundred thousand legions of Elohim of the Fifth Ray are the builders of this grid of light. They shall work throughout this night and day and another day unto the fulfilling of this grid that is as a cradle, a cradle for Light, a cradle for the Manchild, a cradle for the Christ being born in you as your soul is born in Christ.

     A very large circle is drawn. It is a circle far beyond the walls of the Inner Retreat. This circle is drawn now as the extension of the grid. It does encompass larger territory that may now be protected by legions of Light - this the reward for the labor accomplished.

     We approach cycles again and again wherein we may open pockets of Darkness where labors must begin again. This conference is a respite, a period of healing, of retreat. Neglect not the perpetual flame of the resurrection. It does burn in the heart [when you call it forth] but tends to rise [to the level of the Holy Christ Self] when you do not draw it down [daily and sustain it at your level].

     This is a season11 when the Spirit of the Resurrection in the heart of God in the Great Central Sun is closest to earth. If you desire healing, renewal, the reversing of the cycles of old age, disease and death, take advantage of the moment of this retreat. As a mighty sea crashes upon a rock and jumps into the sky, so is the moment of the resurrection flame appearing in this very place. Every cell and atom of your being can be infused with this flame. May you see it as a perpetual grace in the remaining hours of our days together.

     You can drink in this flame. You can assimilate it. Each of the four lower bodies may be a chalice for and be strengthened by [the resurrection currents]. This is the resurrection of purpose, of direction, of will, of supply. This is the resurrection of the Christ in you in the final quadrant of the year, when much of earth is cycling in the disintegration that moves towards the new birth of spring. This is the moment to seize those energies, recycling them by the resurrection flame so that they do not add a ring of mortality to the tree of life.

     Let them be turned. [Let the negative spirals of mortality be turned to the positive spirals of immortality by resurrection's flame!] Let the Light go forth. Let each one know the resurrection of holy purpose unto the goal-fitting, unto the fusion with Christ. As Jesus did walk in the resurrection flame, fused to his Christ, so, beloved, may you walk in his footsteps until the very fire of the resurrection flame does burn your feet and consume the dross until your feet are cool once again.

     The legions of Elohim pause for this moment. Each raises a communion cup in salutation, in gratitude and in acknowledgment for the achievements won. This, beloved, is "awards night" for chelas of the sacred fire. You will see on the inner who may come to the platform to receive that acknowledgment while others remain in their seats, for they have not passed their tests in this quadrant of the year.

     Know, then, beloved, that the reward is always given, even when the outer self may not receive the praise. All things accrue to the accounts of each lifestream. May your awards be greater than the demerits that detract from the awards and therefore compromise the full cup of Victory's mead.

     Bask in this moment, beloved, for you are fully surrounded and sealed in this grid of light abuilding.

     I withdraw now, Virginia with me, to the level of the I AM Presence and the Causal Body, the Dharmakaya. When your desire to be in that Presence is greater than your desire to be anywhere else, you may also withdraw to that level. But first things first, beloved. So become the Son of God, shining in his strength12 in your temple.

Footnotes:

1 Elohim [Hebrew, plural of Eloah, God]: the Biblical uni-plural noun for the "Divine Us" who created male and female in their image and likeness. Used 2,500 times in the Old Testament. The seven Elohim embody the light of the Father-Mother God, whom they personify on each of the seven rays. These seven sets of twin God-flames are the "seven Spirits of God" referred to in Revelation 1:4; 3:1; 4:5; 5:6.

6 In the case of the fallen angels, such as Lucifer and others, their bonding to God (which took place at their creation) is undone if and when they pass through the second death after the Final Judgment. When they were cast out of heaven by Archangel Michael and his hosts, they were given an allotted span to embody in the physical universe and repent of their rebellion against God. Those who do not repent by the time this opportunity is up will be sentenced to the second death at the Court of the Sacred Fire. Although they were cut off from the Deity at their first judgment (when they were cast out of heaven), the breaking of their bond to the Godhead is not made final until the Last Judgment.

9 By definition, the "have-nots," spiritually speaking, are those who have no Light, no Christ-Self awareness and therefore no internal magnet to hold the Light. The "haves" are those who have Light, have Christ-Self awareness and have the internal magnet of the threefold flame to hold fast to that which they receive from God. Jesus described this dilemma when he said: "For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath" (Mark 4:25). See also Matt. 13:12; 25:29; Luke 8:18; 19:26; and The Lost Teachings of Jesus I, pp. 133-34, 156.
