 Perfect Balance

 

Mighty I AM Presence, Divine One Universal Consciousness fill my world with peace, harmony and joy of service, thus enabling me to benefit from the natural quickening of all life around me on planet Earth and within the Cosmos.

 

Through these feelings of perfect balance I know I am able to attain the Path of the Middle Way and I believe that this will always assist me in sustaining and maintaining a conscious awareness of the positive use of my energies. I recognize and accept how this enables me to enjoy greater emotional stability, sharper mental alertness, more lucid etheric clarity and natural strength as a channel through which divine vibrations may flow and manifest in the world of form.

 

I forever strive to hold these feelings of balance, poise, dignity and well being that are the divine perfected qualities I was first conceived with and that are my true essence and being and I am most grateful for these blessings. 

So be it, I AM that I AM!

 

The Importance of Remaining Centered Within

The Power Within Each Heart 

Every human being has been endowed by the Mother-Father God with the priceless gift of creative power, a self sustaining focus which lives within each human heart known as the Immortal Threefold Flame. The Holy Christ Self abides within this sacred flame and awaits the opportunity to express itself and release its particular gifts for the blessing of all life. The hour is now in the planetary and universal design of perfection that this divine self must be liberated and given full freedom of expression. Every man and woman on this planet must become a Lord or Lady of the Flame, each in accordance to their divine destiny. 

During the course of many lives lived on planet Earth every individual has given more or less power and freedom to one of the three aspects of this sacred threefold flame. Some have developed more power; some more wisdom; and others more love. Thus, no two lifestreams are exactly alike in their outer expression on this physical plane of existence.  

At the present time, perfect balance of the emotional, mental etheric and physical vehicles of each individual is the requirement of the hour. For this reason everyone is often reminded and encouraged to take a careful inventory of their own personal development and endeavor always to focus their attention upon the particular virtue or virtues within their threefold flame that need further attention much of which can be done by going within.  

Remaining Centered Within Your Own Heart 

Those who have evolved in the higher realms and remain there do so by entering and remaining within the very center of their being where the energy constantly released carries blessings to all life they touch in any way. They act only through the direction of divine intelligence and no matter how the energy of another expresses itself, they do not allow their energy to move them from this center for he or she who abides within the secret place of the Most High abides within the light, radiation, presence and power of the Almighty! 

Only when you are fully centered within the heart of your own being, are you in command of the vibrant energies that flow constantly from the Sun beyond the Sun, beyond the Sun to you and through the threefold flame at your heartcenter constantly awaiting your direction to radiate God’s blessings, combined with the divine quality you came into this world to exemplify. 

Abide now in the center of your being, beloved ones, and let your Light and the power of the divine Mother shine forth and be the healing, the peace, the balanced control and the master presence over whatever is required at any given moment! There is no fear, no uncertainty and no doubt when you dwell fully within that presence. You can be all things and do all things when you dwell centered within this sacred place. 

When you remain and abide within the center of this great heart of the divine, then shall you become this Universal Consciousness! Your eyes become mighty beacons through which God’s Light shines. Your hands become conductors of God’s almighty power. Your lips become instruments by which God’s words are fashioned and directed into the world of form; and your feet become the feet of the Master Presence moving through the universe.  

The Presence of God within humanity is the hope for your ultimate personal salvation and individual mastery over all substance and energy in which your consciousness dwells. One’s I AM Presence signifies by its very name—Presence—that it is here now! I AM signifies by its very definition that it is not some ephemeral being, which in some time to come will transform, transmute and sublimate all tendencies, conditions, effects and personal limitations of the individual for this is who you are. As you contemplate upon this truth you will see that there is a presence in each member of the human race capable of such transformation now. As Jesus said so long ago: “The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand”. It is here and now, beloved ones, not in some far away mystical place.

The Power of the Silence 

The need of the sincere chela is to become still throughout the course of the day to allow the energy, directives, radiation and power of the Universal Presence of God I AM that I AM to flow into and nourish the lower vehicles and the outer consciousness. In the East, the practice of concentrated meditation upon a Supreme Source prefaces all activity. Until recently, in the West, the requirements of each hour seemed to demand all the attentions and energy of the student, thus periods of spiritual communion is often neglected.  

There simply was no time to “be still and know that I AM…” no time to still the energies of the mental vehicle; no time to quiet the surging sea of the emotional world; no time to discipline the physical body. However, it is when this is accomplished that the “still small voice within” of the Universal I AM Presence can be heard. 

You have been told many times of the necessity of constantly invoking the higher energies of this universal divine consciousness but there does come a time when the individual, after having made the necessary applications, should rest in the Silence and accept the magnificent energy and radiation invoked! To many times to count, students continue to make their decrees, petitions, invocations and affirmations but they do not allow their inner bodies to become quiet enough to accept the gifts and blessings called forth. Again, the gift of balance is important in both the giving of one’s energy to connect with the higher vibrations and the accepting of the gifts you have invoked.  

Allow Spiritual Grace to Enter 

The activity of truly entering the silence cannot be over-emphasized. Your consciousness must be kept positive! Your emotional, mental, etheric and physical bodies must be trained to direct their attention toward the Source—the great I AM THAT I AM on a regular basis.  It is usually easy for a student to make the calls and visualizations that actually employ the energies of the lesser bodies but it can be difficult to complete these spiritual exercises by peacefully holding these vehicles in the Silence in order to receive the blessings given. Instead he or she often goes happily to sleep or allows their attention to wonder, toying with numerous irrelevant thoughts and feelings unable to receive the full benefit from these periods of contemplation. For this reason, learn to speak to your bodies and say to them often: “Peace! Physical body be still! Etheric body be still! Mental body be still! Emotional body be still!

Many human beings have lost control of the rhythm of their four lesser vehicles. Instead of functioning in a harmonious vibration directed by their I AM Presence, their energies spin erratically out of control, spurred on to ever increasing speeds or slowed down to a trickle by any discordant thoughts, feelings, memories or experiences of the moment. Until one learns to take command of their entire self they will be unable to come forth from any spiritual exercise refreshed and renewed of mind, feelings, body and soul. 

Mastery of the Silence 

The Silence can become an actual substance that can give protection to a physical body as well as illumination to the mind and peace to the feelings. Many chelas have built a powerful momentum giving decrees and invocations. However, there is also a need to balance these activities by learning to work in the Silence as well. One can think in the Silence, feel in the Silence, speak in the Silence and direct energy in the Silence but a true chela tells no one what they are doing. As it is always true, actions speak louder than words! 

The Ascended Master Saint Germain once said his teacher asked him to go out onto a battlefield and serve in the Silence. At first he did not think he could do it but he was willing to try. He eventually drew the power of the Silence so tightly around him that it actually deflected all physical form from hurting him. Later he said that experience did more for him than anything else and from that point on he moved forward on his spiritual journey very rapidly. 

Beloved Ascended Master Jesus also said, the demands upon the time, energy, attention and service of the chela who is engaged in a spiritual endeavor forms a great stumbling block to his or her individual progress unless you learn how to consciously quiet the energies of your own world so that a new strength, faith and power may be supplied by your own I AM Presence. I well know this from my own experience! During my ministry, just as today, the world and its people require so much assistance.  

There is a tendency to rush forward and serve without the necessary periods to refresh and renew at the cosmic fount. You all remember how often I went into the hills to pray. No chela can be of lasting service to the spiritual work at hand unless he or she understands the necessity of taking undivided time from the outer world, to enter the Silence and draw the necessary strength and sanctity from the Source of all that is good which you can then dispense in dignity, poise and loving solicitude to your fellow traveler. 

The Heart of God 

It is “home” in the truest and deepest sense of the word. It is security, safety and understanding. It is love without censure and peace without price. It is Light such as the most exquisite, energizing sunrise you could ever imagine and yet it is as restful as the twilight. It is silent as the sun in the heavens in the performance of its daily cosmic duty, yet it is filled with the sound of perfect harmony. It is every pair of opposites in their most perfect sense. It is silence and sound. It is activity and stillness. 

However, within this great cosmic heart is a realm. Saint Germain calls it the Great, Great Silence. Jesus called it the Kingdom of Heaven. Others have called it the Sacred Heart. David called it the Secret Place of the Most High. Beloved Æolus calls it the Power of Love Divine. By whatever name it is called, it is the ultimate goal toward which all life is journeying and it can be experienced by the evolving consciousness of any person when he or she has become still enough! 

Once you have entered into the heart of that exquisite stillness, where you can see the full design of God’s Plan for everyone, you will not want to leave ever again. You will want to remain within that heart abiding always in perfect peace. And as you do, you will find the Silence increasingly more easy to enter and more and more tangible to manifest as you practice this cultivation of inner peace.
