Back to Reality
Lanello Is the Appointed Guardian of Keepers of the Flame
When They Pass from the Screen of Life
Our Friends - we greet you in the light of Saint Germain and in the light of your own God Presence.

     The Great Divine Director and Saint Germain have called us to speak to you concerning Reality and the Reality of God within you. Cleave to this Reality and daily recite what is Real in your life.

     List those things that have eternal Reality; then consider the day-to-day actualities of life. When you know and cherish elements of your eternal Reality, you are strengthening by the power of ten your ability to manifest that Reality in the flesh.

     It is easy to be lured away into unreality. And the descent from the level of your Holy Christ Self and the threefold flame in your heart to the level of the astral plane is an easy slip and slide. You may not even be aware that you have stepped into unreality. It can surround you as a mist and, if you remain in it too long, you may be trapped by elements of the psychic plane.

     Once you are trapped in the psychic, it is almost impossible to extricate yourself. We must then make calls to angels of God to rescue you from illusion, self-delusion and the sense that that which is entirely unreal is absolute Reality.

     We have observed New Thought and New Age teaching and the millions of individuals around the world who seek a level of higher consciousness. Yet many have not attained it because they have not had the teachings of Archangel Michael, which would have given them the understanding of how to protect themselves when entering a spiritual path in contrast to an astral, or psychic, path.

     These may have good intentions and the desire to be helpful to mankind, to be friends of the earth, et cetera; but without the protection of Archangel Michael, the tube of light and the teachings we offer in the Keepers of the Flame Lessons, individuals who seek a better way are not able, except by divine intercession, to harness their God-Reality.

     The power of God-Reality is dispensed to you by your own Mighty I AM Presence. If you do not know that you have an I AM Presence or it is simply words on a page, you may not be able to cleave to Reality when the burdens of karma, yes, the records written in your astrology, come upon you. Thus, you may descend in the sine wave, becoming perhaps bowed down and burdened with life.

     Know, beloved, that there are times when the waves that come are waves of light, when your I AM Presence and Causal Body deliver to you your just reward. Then there are periods that can be considered a very dark night, when you must face deep darkness and despair.

     This Dark Night of the Spirit follows, as you know, the dark night of the soul.1 And the Dark Night of the Spirit eclipses even the Presence of the I AM THAT I AM. During the Dark Night you must retreat back to Reality, back to the heart of the Great Divine Director, and know that facing personal and planetary darkness is a part of the initiations of the Path.

     All share in the Good Friday spell. All share in being on the cross with Christ. For some, this crucifixion has lasted many thousands of incarnations. And some have entered into advanced initiations wherein the soul is sent into the octaves of Death and Hell accompanied by the Lord Christ, as on Holy Saturday. But the ultimate goal, of course, is the transfiguration (the transformation by holy light) and the resurrection, preparatory to the ascension in the Light.

     Thus, beloved, it is well to remind yourselves that there are things of this world that appear real but are not. Shun them! And do not step into the quicksand of life. For you are here to earn your stripes. You are here to have your victory! As it has been said, "I never promised you a rose garden."

     Blessed ones, some of you manage to descend into the pits of mortal existence and thereafter know not how to climb the spiral staircase back to your heart of hearts. I tell you, if you will engage in daily meditation at the altar in the secret chamber of your heart, magnifying the threefold flame, balancing it and drawing down the power of your Holy Christ Self and your Mighty I AM Presence by fiats and fervent implorings, you will be able to sustain a state of constancy from conference to conference, from Sunday service to Sunday service.

     Since you carry so much Light for the planet, you must not underestimate the traps that the fallen ones lay for you to draw you down to levels where the way seemeth right "but the end thereof are the ways of death."2

     I ask you to consider offering a novena to the Great Divine Director3 following this conference so that you might know that the direction you receive is truly divine direction and so that you will not be pulled into byways and be taken this way and that and lose your God-centeredness. For you will need that God-centeredness when the sine wave dips again and you must go down to the electronic belt to erase, by violet flame, records upon records upon records of your recent and ancient past that must be cast into the sacred fire.

     Therefore, I speak to you of the reality of our lives, our final incarnations as well as many previous incarnations. It was the flame of God-Reality that sustained us. And anent that flame, we would speak of the quickening fire that desires to quicken many souls. For the ritual of kindness and compassion is an integral part of the flame of God-Reality.

     Blessed ones, the teaching is truly simple. Certain fundamentals should be in the hands of all servants of God in the earth but they are not. All should know how to give the "Violet Fire and Tube of Light Decree" and "The Keeper's Daily Prayer." All should know how to invoke the protection of Archangel Michael and how to keep themselves free from the astral plane through the ritual of calling to Astrea. All should act on the knowledge of that spiritual science.

     We would love to tell the servants of God, and to tell them again and again, of the glories of the ascension. We come this night to ask you to pass on the magnificent teachings of Saint Germain, by which we have all prospered. Think how he took me under his tutelage, how he gave me the privilege of sitting in the atomic accelerator and how I ascended from the Cave of Symbols.

     Your beloved Messenger Lanello has asked me to tell you this evening that he is the appointed guardian of the souls of Keepers of the Flame when they pass from the screen of life. With his legions of angels, he escorts them to their appointed place in the heaven-world. On a number of occasions, Saint Germain has requested that these souls be taken to the Cave of Symbols, there to sit in the atomic accelerator and be given tremendous assistance toward their ascension.

     Some who pass from the screen of life go directly to that retreat. After certain instructions have been given to them and their required applications of the violet flame have been completed, they may ascend in a number of weeks or months or a few short years following their transition from the physical plane to the spiritual octaves. Others must spend a longer time in the retreats, applying the violet flame to balance their karmic debts and learning how to resolve the unresolved elements of their psyches.

     Blessed ones, Saint Germain is the Knight Commander of the Keepers of the Flame Fraternity and he has guaranteed his assistance to those who are members in good standing and who support the worldwide outreach of these Teachings. The Keepers of the Flame Fraternity supersedes all other spiritual orders that have been sponsored over the centuries, even to the present hour.

     Yes, Saint Germain is determined to see through to the very end, to the very victory of the life everlasting, those Keepers of the Flame who truly keep the flame of Life on behalf of humanity. These are they who assign themselves penances when they err on the Path and who, at the conclusion of each twenty-four-hour cycle, make their peace with God and those with whom they have interacted.

     I cannot even tell you what a stupendous miracle it is for you to have as your personal Mentor and Guru the Ascended Master Saint Germain. Nevertheless, knowing that you have his presence and his protection, his guidance and his solicitude, you must not take him for granted but fill your days with meritorious deeds as a tribute to him.

     Engage in self-examination on occasion but not constantly. Your daily thrust must be to send forth the tremendous energy of your I AM Presence for the healing of all life. Call daily that when you send forth that Light of your Presence, it will reach all those with whom you have negative karma. You can swiftly balance your debts to life by sending untold blessings to those who may have wronged you or whom you may have wronged.

     Blessed ones, the path to victory is a step-by-step process. It does not take genius. It does not take erudition. It does not necessarily take mastery in any field. But it does take humility and it does take constancy in one's calling and sticking to the last with El Morya and with the Ascended Masters.

     Each time you accomplish what you are about, your assignments and responsibilities, you are actively increasing the tremendous magnet of the Great White Brotherhood in the earth. This is God-Reality. This is the means whereby you become more Real day by day until one day you merge with the Reality of your I AM Presence in the ritual of the ascension.

     There is a great magnitude of energy in the magnet of the entire Spirit of the Great White Brotherhood. And you are a part of that magnet. You are cells and molecules in that magnet. And as you go forth with a thrust for a purpose, knowing what is your calling, knowing that you are uniquely chosen for that calling, this knowledge gives you a true sense of self-worth. You know you are worthy to serve God and to serve all people.

     I am familiar with this land, for I have been in many areas in this part of the West. And as I speak to you, I am very near to the original ranch where I met Godfre.

     Yes, beloved, we have had tremendous victories. And we encourage you to understand that being human is not an evil. Being human is a way of life on planet earth. To start with the foundation of one's humanity and to build upon it one's divinity is indeed God's calling to you. Step by step and day by day, overcoming little things and great, you will know an unparalleled victory.

     Love is truly the way to the ascension. But love must be enhanced with white fire, with the will of God and with the dedication of the heart. Yet, without wisdom, you shall not acquire the infinite presence all about you of the I AM THAT I AM. Thus understand how necessary it is to balance the threefold flame.

     I come in your gracious presence, ladies and gentlemen. I come to assure you that there is a mathematical formula for the victory. All who apply that formula will have the victory. It is as sound as science or physics, beloved. It is as sound as the geometry of being.

     When you understand the principles of science demonstrated by Saint Germain in his embodiments as the Wonderman of Europe, Francis Bacon, Christopher Columbus, Roger Bacon, Merlin, Saint Joseph and the prophet Samuel,4 when you understand that the victory of the ascension is scientific and that there is a step-by-step way of arriving at the gate - then, then I say, you shall have your victory. You shall perform your daily tasks with renewed determination, daily comforting life, daily disciplining yourself, daily making the most of your twenty-four hours.

     In this way, beloved, find your victory - not in a sudden heroic dash but in the day-by-day keeping of the flame of Life upon the altar of humanity.

     I graciously cede my place now to my beloved Nada.

     The five-day Easter Retreat 1995 was held April 12 through 16, 1995, at the Royal Teton Ranch. This dictation by the Ascended Master Daniel Rayborn was delivered by the Messenger, Elizabeth Clare Prophet, on Good Friday, April 14, 1995. Before the dictation, the Messenger gave a biographical sketch of Daniel and Nada Rayborn with excerpts from the book The Magic Presence by Godfré Ray King. Daniel and Nada Rayborn and their son and daughter, Rex and Nada, ascended in the twentieth century. "Celeste Aïda" from Aïda by Verdi was played as the meditation music in preparation for the dictation.

18.1  I AM the Witness - April 23, 1995

Vol. 38 No. 18 - I AM the Witness - April 23, 1995

     I AM the Witness

     The Violet Flame Heals Homosexuality

     Dear Mother,

     With profound thankfulness for all your assistance in these years, I submit this, my I AM the Witness letter, to you:

     One day I listened with all my heart as you said, "With God all things are possible!" A great light of hope was kindled within me and is rekindled each time I hear your voice resounding anew in every fiber of my being: "With God all things are possible!" You have been the instrument of God's voice, sustaining me over all these years.

     In the vast and black ocean of hopelessness that my life was immersed in, I was enslaved by my dweller-on-the-threshold. But one great and luminous day, God's persevering angels called anew my soul by His abundant mercy - maybe as the last opportunity for my soul in this embodiment. This opportunity came through an invitation to a public service of The Summit Lighthouse Study Group in Mexico City.

     And the great miracle began! I am so very much grateful to you because I know that you and Mark L. Prophet and your mighty work and intercession on behalf of all souls of Light on this planet are at the very core of this miracle. Now I can say joyfully and hopefully: The violet flame heals homosexuality! Yes, it is true, even if somebody is in the bottomless pit of this nefarious and black pit of all pits, as I was:

     The violet flame heals homosexuality!

     I will not write details about my case this time; it would be a long, long story. I will only say, with tears of joy in my eyes, that my gratitude to you has no limits because I am healing. Eight years ago I withdrew myself from all homosexual activities and began a new life of no engagement. But the total dissolution of records requires many years, and I know that in my electronic belt there are yet records to be dissolved. The beast is fragmented - lurking and luring even now, but fragmented and in a daily process of fading. And the Mighty Archangel Michael is here with me, on guard every day! And now I am sure that, enduring and enduring, one day I will be 100 percent healed.

     I know there are no words to explain this miracle, as there are no words to explain how Jesus resurrected. One may only recognize silently that the Almighty is indeed omnipotent. I ask anew for your calls for intercession not only for me but for all those souls lost in the astral plane, hopeless and unhappy as I was, because they have not yet found the unfailing remedy: the Ascended Masters and their violet flame. With them all things are possible!

     With my love and gratitude,


Footnotes:

1 In the ascent to perfection, the soul passes through what Saint John of the Cross describes as the "dark night." The first dark night is experienced as one encounters the return of his own personal karma - the human creation that almost completely obliterates for a time the light of the Christ Self and the I AM Presence. This "dark night of the soul" is in preparation for the Dark Night of the Spirit, which involves the supreme test of Christhood faced by Jesus on the cross when he cried out, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" In this initiation, the soul is completely cut off from the I AM Presence and the heavenly hierarchy and must pass through the crucifixion and the resurrection, sustained solely by the Light garnered in his own sacred heart, while holding the balance for planetary karma. For the Messengers' teachings on the dark night, including readings and commentary on the writings of Saint John of the Cross, see Elizabeth Clare Prophet, Living Flame of Love, 8-audiocassette album, total 12-1/2 hr.
