The Fusion of Your Heart with My Own
You Must Overcome Every Concept of Limitation
Christmas Eve Address 1990

     I come with the thunder of an Archeia and I come with the gentle breath of my babe. Know in me the fierceness of the Great Kali. Know in me the archetype of the Blessed Virgin, whom those of earth who have the Mother in their hearts have received even since the hour of my final embodiment upon earth.

     So the power of the presence of the Mother that God has given to me has been a mitigating factor against the falsehoods of the false hierarchy of religion East and West. Nothing can separate the child from the love of Mother except it be the intrusion of the false hierarchy of the Mother and the false hierarchy of the Father.

     Allow that bond to develop, beloved! Allow yourselves and permit yourselves to be the embodiment of the Mother Flame and you will raise up souls of Light in this Community and throughout the world who shall never be removed from the Rock of Christ Truth, which I bear always. I am always bearing my child in arm, even as my child is the Son with me who does protect my office and become my advocate.

     Therefore, beloved, the hour is long past due for myself to manifest with you. As Lanello has spoken to you of the fusion of your heart with your Holy Christ Self and Jesus,1 so I speak to you of the fusion of your heart with my own as the first step to your becoming one with the whole.

     Blessed ones, many months ago I came to the Messenger with the statement of the Karmic Board that the time had come when I should no longer be separate from her nor she from me, that I would place my Electronic Presence over her. In the order of Hierarchy, beloved, the one approached with this initiation must decide [to accept it or not], for it is the most difficult of all initiations. For the hatred of the Mother on this planet is greater even than all of the hatred of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

     And therefore, the Messenger did assent; and therefore, this has taken place.

     Therefore the persecution has increased and the estrangement of some who simply cannot stand in my presence. Therefore you have seen such an onslaught. Therefore you have seen all of those who have persecuted the Woman and her seed throughout all ages. They come to the fore, for they are blinded by their hatred not alone of the Mother but of that Christ consciousness that she does impart.

     O beloved, understand that the quickening [within you] of the love of Jesus Christ and of myself and of God is by the Holy Spirit! And the washing of the waters of the mind that passes through the Messenger is this very gift. And therefore those of the world stand aghast, beloved, for they cannot tolerate the movement of the Holy Spirit and the Mother and the Father and the Son to draw into alignment with the divine magnet of being these ones who come in contact with the Messenger. Therefore they label it brainwashing.

     Blessed ones, surely it is the washing of the waters of the mind and of the heart by the Word. Surely it is a washing, even of the fires of the chakras and of the stream of life that has come to be polluted.

     Understand, beloved, that even my presence in this Community for some months in a more tangible way has resulted in the stirring up and the bringing out of the hatred of the Mother - whichever mother you may identify, whether it be the Messenger or some other.

     Therefore it is a wonderful opportunity. For I have come for a purpose and surely not to glorify the Messenger (though God is always glorified where I am and so may you be [glorified in order] to embody my flame). But, beloved, I have come nearer to you in this wise so that swiftly you could learn what elements you may have in your being of that hatred of the Mother, so that you could resolve them, cast them into the violet flame and have my nearly physical, tangible presence with you - with you, then, to defend you, to at times stand between you and your dweller, to stand between you and the adversaries without.

     Blessed ones, surely I am come to consecrate a Community to the Divine Mother. And as you consecrate this Community to me, to my Immaculate Heart and to my rosary, I can enter most sweetly into your beings daily and work many more miracles for you.

     Let the desire of your heart be the chanting of the Hail Ma-Ray, understanding that I am truly your Archeia-instructor who comes to you to show you the purification of the chakras and the raising of the Kundalini sacred fire. Truly it is the great possibility in this hour. And the raising up of that sacred fire, beloved, is surely for the victory of your ascension but it is also so that you may carry that ascension flame with you in this body temple and increase it daily.

     Surely I have come to you because you are ready, even as the Messenger is ready. You are ready, beloved, in the sense that you are fed up with the human creation, you are fed up with these schisms, you are fed up with any separation of your soul from the Mother!

     I tell you, beloved, those who accept my Son and achieve that fusion find that the next step of that fusion must be the fusion with the Mother. Therefore you have desired it. Therefore you have seen it at inner levels. Therefore you have known that I have come, and I have surely come to you with Raphael, with our angels to endow you with my flame.

     And we desire to see presented to the world the recordings of my songs, which our musicians are working on diligently. This music, beloved, will bear our Electronic Presence and Causal Body. It will bear our vibration and flame because you have so consecrated yourselves.

     The Messenger has given you the teaching on the triangle of idolatry of the Mother, fear of the Mother and hatred of the Mother. This triangle can be overcome swiftly by your adoration of the Trinity. The Trinity, therefore, gives the empowerment of the will, the wisdom and the love of God. Seek that empowerment and with it crush the serpent with the heel of your Christhood! Blessed ones, bruise his head, for thou art the manifestation of the Divine Mother.

     Now, beloved, you may understand what turmoil you may have been dealing with, for I come as the Queen of May. I have come the first of May. And look at how my children and my chelas have wrestled with all manner of human questioning and even depression! And depression is the light misqualified that depresses the Mother Flame in your chakras, beloved. And you think it is tied to this and that condition or disappointment, et cetera, or burden of karma, but ultimately it is the manifestation of the loss of the sacred fire of the Mother, which [as it is misqualified] feeds into that vicious circle of the depression syndrome.

     Understand, beloved, that you have questioned and yet we have allowed you to question. You have received many answers through our bands and through our dictations and through the Messenger's teachings, yet some will not listen. Some have not heard. Some have not even considered it necessary to study not only the dictations but the lectures and the comments of that teaching ongoing that does explain how a people can become enmeshed in their karma, how they can become burdened by that karma and by the excessive weight that has descended upon them, how they can become rebellious against Almighty God and even against Jesus, my Son, for requiring them to bear their own load of karmic burden.

     All things have come upon you to test your mettle, to test your vision, your faith, your loyalty and your absolute love of those whom we have sent to represent us.

     Beloved, this Messenger has not turned you aside, has not betrayed you, has not been faithless in her calling but has kept the Flame for every Keeper of the Flame and Lightbearer of this world and beyond steadfastly. And I do this through her, and I may do it through you if you will cease any further grumbling and enter the new year with the most positive spiral of victory for this Community and Church, which starts with yourself - yourself, beloved.

     Your assessment of yourself defines and limits your self-expression. If you think you are of no more worth than a certain level, then you will not perform above that level; for should you do so, all of the theories of the carnal mind should crumble and you should find yourself as the living Christ.

     Do you see, beloved? When you entertain any sense of worthlessness whatsoever, or unworthiness, then that is the highest level of expression you reach. And you determine this each day.

     Because you have said to yourself, "I am not worthy to be that Christ, I am not worthy to be one with Mother Mary," you act the part and you have placed that ceiling above you. Well, beloved ones, that ceiling does not stay put. Once it was twelve feet high, then it was nine, then it was seven. And pretty soon, if you are going to stay in that box of worthlessness, you will find that the room will shrink and you will know the shrinking-man, the shrinking-woman syndrome.2

     Do you understand [what I am saying], beloved? That which ceases to grow will cease to be. And therefore if you allow these conditions and matrices of negativity to remain much longer, you will find that they will become the law of your life and you will have a tremendous struggle getting out of them. And if you should ever be cut off, by a path of initiation or karma or whatever, from the direct contact with our Brotherhood through the Messenger or through your own God Presence, then you will know just what an opportunity you have lost.

     Therefore I say: The most important resolution that you must make must be made in this hour for the final days of the year, [and it is] that you will cast out the unwanted-child syndrome, you will cast out all of that psychology that limits you as to who and what you are and who you can be. These things are a block to your creativity, to your abundance, to the supply that is most urgently needed in this hour.

     See [that block] for what it is and do not return to it except to vanquish it by plunging that mighty sword of Archangel Michael into the very heart of that record! Pursue all other means available, beloved, for you must overcome every concept of limitation that has been placed upon you and that you have accepted.

     Do not accept the concept [that you are the victim of the rights or wrongs] of human parents. You are born of Divine Parents! And know that they are perfect and they are your true Father-Mother God. They have never disappointed you, never misled you, never left you alone not to be loved.

     Blessed ones, accept the Divine Parents! For to see yourself the victim of human parents any longer, I say, is more than a travesty; it is a betrayal of your Father-Mother God! And after so much teaching of lifetimes, you must come to the resolution that your parents are your parents, whether by assignment, by initiation or by karma. [And in most cases they did the best they knew to do.] You must praise God [for the blessings of life he has given you through your human parents] and move on!

     You must know [that whether your parents were right or wrong], your Divine Parents were always there. And whatever [good] you embody today must be the result of your own determination to claim those true parents. They are Alpha and Omega! They are Helios and Vesta! They are the twin flames of Archangel and Archeia! In fact, they are the ascended twin flames of any Masters whom you desire to call your parents.

     Beloved, we all embody the Father-Mother God. Each one of us individually is androgynous. We come to you, we offer our all, and we do it again and again.

     Do not underestimate the necessity for your decree work. This is a salvation that requires work! Paul said it. Jesus said it. I say it: ["Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling."]3 If you are not willing to work, then I say, you will not achieve your ascension in this life. It is as simple as that.

     There are students who have come in contact with our teachings and who have been in contact with them for many years, and they somehow think that by [merely] listening to the teaching they are becoming it. I tell you it is not so. The human mind is a good tape recorder and it does record the teaching, but that is not the equivalent of God Self-mastery. The mastery comes when a teaching is applied.

     And I tell you, there is absolutely no substitute for intense work with the violet flame, for intense work in dealing with your own dweller[-on-the-threshold] or for [invoking the Lord's] judgment in situations [of injustice] that beset you. There is a probing that must take place. There is pain, yes, that will come and [there is] a pain that will transcend itself, and you will know the bliss of God if you are willing to go through it.

     If you are someone who wants to have a certain painless path, beloved, then know that that is not a possibility on this earth. If you would be transformed, if you would rise even in the very mystery of the phoenix bird, transcending your old self, you must be willing to let go of those things that are painful to let go of, only to put your hand in the hand of the living God.

     Shun the familiar when it holds you back! Enter into the grace of God. I tell you, heaven has never been more open to the climb of the ascending ones and never more ready to help. And it is because we see the oncoming Darkness, we see times ahead when [you will have greater] difficulty in achieving what you can achieve today with so little a sacrifice for so great a salvation.

     I am your Mother, and I know that you feel in this moment that it is so good to be home with Mother. Well, I tell you, it is good to be home with my true children. And I shall spank you! And I shall love you! And I shall rebuke you! And I shall knock that pride out of you and see coming forth [from you] the most glorious manifestation of the Son of God. After all, beloved ones, if I may say so, I am among the most successful mothers of this cosmos.[4-second applause]

     Precious hearts, do keep that flame! Do not let it go out! I will tell you, there is a record of a few individuals in this Community who in the past twelve months did blow out their threefold flame by anger, and I bring this to your attention. It is possible to do it. It is possible to allow that flame to go out.

     And those who engage in a raging type of anger and unleash the contents of their unconscious and do so repeatedly and come to our door and receive the message and the teaching and know precisely how they can call for intercession for the binding of such anger [must heed my warning]. Beloved ones, you never know when that final manifestation of anger will be the moment of the extinguishing of the flame.

     All should fear God and fear the loss of that flame within and know that when you approach this altar, when you come and receive this teaching, it is counted unto you for knowledge, it is counted unto you as opportunity, and it is counted unto you as karma. Thus to violate in full, knowing awareness the law of God to such an extent, I say, it is a pity.

     And in some cases we have lifted individuals up out of sections of the planet and areas of the world where they never would have had a chance to come out of their old self. We have brought them to the altar, we have given them the teaching; and yet they would not apply it. They would not deal with that human creation. They would not kneel before Jesus and cast themselves upon the Rock of Christ to have that [karmic] momentum broken.4

     It does take groaning and travail5 to give birth to your Christhood. And the problem with Western civilization is the indulgence of children [to the point where] they do not arrive at the age of maturity with "the guts," I shall say, to truly wrestle with what must be wrestled with. You will not enter in unless you wrestle with yourself daily. You will not enter in if you daily postpone the vow and the commitment. Look neither to the right nor to the left but enter into the heart of Jesus and stay there.

     Blessed ones, I am here to help you but there is little that I can do with a house divided against itself.6 "A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways."7

     Therefore, let the vision come together through the third eye! Let it be there! And keep your guard, for you are continually tested. And you dip into those low levels of the sine wave, beloved, and then again and again you go into that old habit pattern and it is by the sheer pride of the ego itself. You have the teaching, beloved. Please do not misuse it any longer. For I tell you, it is a sad day when someone must be sent away for the cause [of unbridled anger].

     I welcome all of you to my heart in this hour, and I give you this opportunity to kneel in prayer, to ask me from your heart of hearts what you would that I should do for you, what you desire from the Messenger, what you desire, beloved, to be delivered of by the great sword of the Great Kali, which I also wield.

     Therefore I shall take up this sword, the mighty sword Excalibur that is the Divine Mother's from the beginning, and I shall wield it during this period of prayer when the choir shall sing in unison Christmas carols.

     I listen to each one of your hearts and your lips that pray. [Choir sings "O Come, All Ye Faithful" and "Away in a Manger" while the congregation kneels in prayer.]

     I speak to you now as your "Virgin of the Flaming Sword Excalibur." I ask you to remember me (and to call to me) as appearing in this mode. Therefore you will know that I may perpetually wield the sword Excalibur in your behalf.

     I need the call, the will, the commitment and the determination that you will keep your word when you promise to be done with this or that human creation. And I do not suggest that you dally in giving that word, thinking that you may not keep it.

     The idea, beloved, is to receive from the Mind of God and your own soul that which is the next step, then ask my assistance and take that step firmly. Be confident that you will maintain the level of attainment required at that new step and [promise yourself that] you will defend your place on the step of the spiral staircase leading to heaven, that you will defend it against all enemies, for it is your place and your attainment, and that you will not allow yourself to be displaced.

     Understand, beloved, that those who would receive me unto themselves must know the example of this Messenger, that in receiving myself she herself has borne [a portion of the world's] hatred of myself in her body and in her life. Therefore when you see a reflection of burden or sternness or solemnness or even determination and much silence, understand that this is what it takes to bear that opposition.

     Yet the Messenger knows, as you know, that unless the Divine Mother come into embodiment on earth, unless you also with her shall receive [unto yourselves] the Archeia, this earth will not long endure. For it is the Mother Flame that keeps alive evolutions, civilizations and planets.

     Therefore, though the price be high, there is no choice but to pay it when it is time for you to do so. And no true initiate on the Path has ever, beloved, denied that descent of the next initiation. For, you see, there is nowhere else to go; for once it is your turn to be the initiate, if you do not take the step, then the force, who knows the step you should have taken, will attack you [at that level] nonetheless. [To take the next step may require courage, beloved, and fearlessness, but with the acceptance of the initiation comes the protection that goes with it. And this protection will be sustained as long as you maintain your harmony.]

     Therefore the Messenger's motto long ago, which still stands, is this: "The only way to go is up!" Therefore be comforted, beloved, for you are on a spiral staircase and you need take but one step at a time.

     I am here this evening, beloved, because some of you have failed to take those steps in the past year, preferring to remain on a lesser rung. I am here to inform you that all of your plans and all of your desires to do this and that and create supply for yourselves and the Church and many other plans will come to naught unless you integrate yourself fully with your own personal path of initiation.

     Believe me, beloved, that the Maha Chohan, Jesus Christ, El Morya, myself and others of the ascended brethren will come to you the moment you determine to shuffle off one ring of the mortal coil. Only thus shall you know the flame of immortality before you shall rise to other heights at the conclusion of this life.

     May your rising be the true resurrection and the true ascension. For this purpose I have come. And I shall be there at Summit University, for I shall be wherever the Messenger is.

     I will prepare you for the fusion with your Christ Self so that you may also bear the burden of my Mother Flame. This, the sword Excalibur, remains that which may be committed to the son or the daughter of God who is prepared to wield it and to defend it.

     I make, therefore, the sign of the cross. And I touch you each one in preparation for that day and date when you also might be knighted and be received as ladies of the flame.

     I commend your keeping this night unto the Sacred Heart of Jesus, our Lord and Saviour.

     This dictation by Mother Mary was delivered by the Messenger Elizabeth Clare Prophet at the conclusion of the Christmas Eve Candlelight Vigil, December 24, 1990.

47.1  I AM the Witness - December 9, 1990

Vol. 33 No. 48 - I AM the Witness - December 9, 1990

     I AM the Witness

     Dear Chelas on the Path of the Ascension,

     It is with joy and fervor in my heart that I shall tell you the true story of my mother and her glorious day of overcoming. For what I have to recount is truly likened unto the miracle of the Divine Mother and her appearing in this age.

     My mother was born with several holes in her heart and doctors told her parents that she would not reach the age of twenty-one and would certainly never have children. Well ... what did they know anyway? Not only did she produce three children and live to see her fifty-ninth birthday, but also she received from God the impartation of a Mighty Will and inner fortitude whereby she defied her physical condition throughout her life.

     Upon doctors' instruction she was forbidden to run and play as other children, to avoid placing undue strain on her heart. There was always the risk that she might go into heart failure. Instead she directed her attention to higher pursuits, namely a rigorous study of classical piano (which would eventually culminate in her attaining the Diploma of Music) and dedication to the Catholic faith. From the age of six she displayed an extraordinary devotion to Mother Mary and the Rosary. While her sisters played with dolls, she could be found kneeling by her bedside, quietly saying the Rosary.

     At age eight, she received a visitation from Our Lady, who expressed her happiness and approval with her daily offerings to the Lord. She also impressed upon my mother's soul the importance of daily recitation of the Rosary for World Peace. She appeared at the foot of her bed, smiling with a garland of pink roses around her head. As a teenager whilst she practiced the piano for hours each day, her younger sister would often hear her playing halt, and silence would pervade from the music room. Sometimes she would sneak up to the door, place her eye to the keyhole and to her surprise there my mother would be, with her Rosary beads, giving the Rosary.

     After finding the teachings of the Ascended Masters in 1985, she experienced a gradual decline in her health with signs of weakness more evident. She suffered recurring fluid retention (mainly in her ankles) due to her heart condition, which in turn weakened her kidney function. But her faith and devotion to the Rosary was unremitting as she battled a frail body. One of her favorite sayings was "With God all things are possible."

     With her prayers she was as dependable as the sunrise. She would say, "My I AM Presence wakes me up each morning." As a child I have vivid recollections of times when I would be experiencing difficulties and I would ask her to include the matter in her novenas to Our Lady. Always the answer would be forthcoming.

     In the summer of 1989, we attended Summit University, Lanto's Quarter. During the twelve months prior to that time, my mother had been saying fourteen rosaries every day (the Child's Rosary to Mother Mary) and without fail I might add!

     But it was not until Christmas Day of 1989 that my mother began to suffer a serious relapse.

     I returned home shortly after New Years and was shocked to see her. Her face was puffy and swollen, and from the hips downward her legs had blown up with fluid. We tried every natural remedy available to reduce her chronic dropsy - herbal teas, reflexology, acupuncture, massage, mineral supplements - en a visit to the osteopath. She was bedridden most of the time, ate very little and required constant care. Fortunately we were able to procure some fresh raw goat's milk, which she practically lived on, and she said, "It is the only food I am able to enjoy." She also took great delight in our African violets which had burst into bloom.

     Eventually she showed little sign of recovery and was too debilitated to even decree. She told me that one day she had almost drifted asleep while saying her "Michaels" and that she had heard Satan laughing at her.

     She would walk half a dozen paces and be trembling and breathless. Although she was terrified about going into a hospital because she was highly allergic to drugs, finally we had no alternative. She suffered too much discomfort and distress.

     My mother lasted three days in the hospital and passed away at 5:30 a.m. on the third morning, in her sleep, February 21, 1990.

     However, greater things were in store for us all. I shall never forget the precious morning of her passing. I called to Mother Mary, said four rosaries consecrating her Victory and asked to be given a sign as to whether she had made the transition safely.

     Shortly after 10:00 a.m., I walked out onto my balcony, looked up and, behold, directly above the hospital, high in the etheric formed out of strato-cirrus clouds, was my mother's face. It was as though the heavens themselves had opened, such was the light released that morning.

     The air was serene and crystal clear with white clouds resembling angel wings. There she was, suspended for all to see, perfectly etched out in ecstasy with an aura of radiance around her head. As though she had just awakened, the left side of her hair appeared flat where her head had been lying against the pillow. She looked very much as she did in her early twenties, pure and transfigured in her seamless wedding garment. I knew that I would never again speak with her in mortal tones, but to see her veiled in exquisite glory truly brought me to tears. 'Twas such a moving experience.

     She remained there for some twenty minutes while I ran for my camera. I managed to take a photograph ... don't ask me how, as I fumbled and fidgeted with the contraption.

     And then, before my very eyes, another face began to emerge from the clouds. This time the face of a man whom I had never seen before, slightly above and to her right side. He was young, yet ancient and of noble countenance, wearing a more impersonal expression, neither smile nor frown.

     It was her twin flame and he held his fingers above her head in a "V" for Victory. Then the breeze picked up with a whisper of a whistle and the whole cloud formation moved towards me. His face enlarged and became clearer until he was almost directly above me. My own mother's face began to fade and in a commanding gesture he looked down upon me. He gazed deeply into my eyes, yet into my soul for several minutes. Then his image was swept back into the clouds. In that moment I knew that my mother was free in the Light of her Presence.

     Several days later I picked up a Pearl of Wisdom I had just received. It was a dictation by beloved Jesus delivered through the Messenger, Elizabeth Clare Prophet, on Christmas Day 1989. The words seemed to leap at me from the page.

     Behold the Ascended Master Moses, whom you have called God Ling. Behold him in your midst this day, for he was once your deliverer and your saviour. ...

     Thus, going to the mountain, looking on the other side and seeing the Promised Land but not entering in, this was the fate of Moses. I say to you, beloved, you stand on the mountain and you look beyond. And somehow in the mists of the sky and the moment of dawn or dusk you see into the etheric octave, you see the Promised Land. ...

     It is true, no man knoweth his own measure, and it is well. For the suffering servant, the humble servant and the burden-bearer, surely does awake in the glory of the garments of the Son of God. ...

     Praise be to God the Father, I AM THAT I AM, and to his Word Eternal.

     For to you dear Mother, I AM the Witness.

     Yours sincerely,

2 On January 1, 1980, Sanat Kumara spoke of the shrinking-man syndrome: "There is no death but a succession of experiences whereby the soul may elect to become more of its own central sun or to squander the light of that central sun and to watch the diminishing of life in other souls and ultimately within itself. ... Individuals have become less and less of the Godhead, yet who walks the earth saying today, `I am not the man that I was yesterday or a century ago or ten thousand years ago'? People are what they are and they think they have always been what they are. But in fact, upon this earth many have been reduced to a lowly estate, without grace, by their own doings and dark deeds. It is the process of self-disintegration whereby the self that is in that process does not perceive the disintegrating self but only the self that remains. ... Let us realize, then, the price that ... must be paid by all of us ascended and un-ascended if together we would truly bring to the shrinking-man syndrome the aware-ness of expanding life, exalted life, transcendent life, and the unique I AM Presence, God Flame of each one."
