OUR BELOVED ASCENDED MASTER SAINT GERMAIN

May 1, 1958 

Beloved and blessed ladies and gentlemen who have loved me long and served me well, this morning it is my joy, it is my honor and it is my privilege again to cross the bridge from the Realm of Divinity into the world of form to give you my love and implicit faith in your capacity to be constant in our service until the Permanent Golden Age is established upon this Earth. Then shall every man, woman and child know the glory of wearing "Freedom's Robes"! Then shall every imprisoned Elemental be free to live in its God-estate and every imprisoned Angel presently embodied here shall yet know the harmony and joy of again living with the Angelic Kingdom, even though these souls may be presently sacrificing for a time the fullness of their Ascension. 

Thus shall the Three Kingdoms be eternally united on "Freedom's Holy Star" - Angels, men and Elementals. In this way does my Vision of the ages become physically manifest, through the loving, conscious co-operation of those who have believed in my reality; those who have accepted my life, my light and my humble endeavors to instruct them and who have given to me FIDELITY! Now, as we begin to intensify the activities of the New Era, others will reap where these have sown. Forty years from today this Earth will show a great harvest of their earnest endeavors. 

Prepare Your Successor in Service - NOW! 

As I have mentioned to you several times before, again I say to you (concerning those who are to follow you in service) PREPARE NOW for your successor among the lovely younger generation. In the Name and Authority of your own Beloved "I AM" Presence, call daily to us to raise up those Ascended Master youth who will be interested in the expansion of our Cause and who can be trained as you have been. Then they will be those to whom you will be able to pass the "torch" when your journey here is done; when the call comes from your own Beloved "I AM" Presence and, in dignity, you enter into your own Electronic Presence, thus becoming a Divine Ascended Being. 

Of course, in the years just ahead, some of you will relinquish these bodies, having earned your "Robes of Immortality". When this does take place, I pray to God that you, each one, will have prepared at least one chela to take your place. Let us not allow it to be said of a single one who has been asked to do so, that he or she has neglected to prepare another hand to be ready in time to take from him that "torch" of our light which he has been carrying. To have such an one prepared would be to make available an unbroken chain of consecrated service to us and his fellowman. 

Let us not repeat this time what has happened century after century in the past that of letting the "Bridge of Light" from our Divine Realms into yours disintegrate because the generation which drew it forth to reach great heights finally passed on to well-earned rest. Then the younger generation, being not sufficiently grounded in the instruction to be able to sustain that bridge of consciousness unbroken, could not hold for us a continuous and ever-expanding conscious contact with unascended beings here, through which they might receive our radiation of perfection to absorb. 

Remember, dear ones, the Great Law will not hold you guiltless if you do not prepare some "torch-bearer" to carry this Light, taking your place when your course is run. The feeling of remorse is a very unhappy one. Should such a condition of affairs come about in your world, were you to finish your course here and, looking back upon the records of the life you had just lived, find a vacant place where there should be a living Flame, a dedicated youth filled with enthusiasm for and an understanding of the Ascended Master's Cause that certainly will not make you happy! 

You see, the Great Cosmic Law demands that, as we invest our life, light and love in some chela who loves us and declares himself ready to serve our Cause, that chela, in turn, must give the assistance to others as he has received it. We expect each loving chela whom we have assisted to so invest his life in at least one other lifestream who, as we have said, will be able and willing to take up the "torch" from that one's hands and carry on. The spiritually awakened Oriental mind knows this Truth well for it applies also to those who study with unascended Masters and Gurus. For every bit of light (instruction, illumination, etc.) a chela receives, that one must balance his account with the Cosmic Law by giving such assistance to someone else of lesser light whom the chela must find, interest and instruct. If the chela does not find such a neophyte, that chela is removed from the circle of those receiving further instruction until he has fulfilled that part of his mission. 

Here in the West, our beloved chelas are so good, they are so earnest, zealous and sincere. However, in the exacting and time-consuming demands upon their attention and energies in this busy Western world, they are inclined to forget their obligations to the future generations to those younger lifestreams who are already here, as well as to those yet to come here, forgetting that teachers must be provided for the immediate as well as for the more distant future. They also are inclined to forget their obligation to us, to balance that which we have given to them. We know that sometimes the good chelas weary a bit of hearing about their responsibility to make application upon this and that. We are quite aware of the diversity of application for all the different avenues of expression which must be called for. There are the calls (decrees) to be made for those yet to be born; those who have been born; the families into which they come while they are here; calls for the assistance to be given to souls who are finished with an Earth-life and then calls to prepare the incoming souls for embodiment here again! Oh, dear hearts! I have been all around that circle with each one of you, many times! Now it is your turn to take that circle of application through for your fellowman. I know you will find it interesting and most rewarding. 

May - A Sacred Month of the Year 

In this holy and sacred month of May, again this year many, many souls will be entering the Sacred Heart Temple, preparing to stand before our Beloved Mother Mary who will fashion for their new embodiment a "Sacred Heart". Of these, there will be thirty-five lifestreams who recently were released from the "Compound". There will also be many embodying who have recently come from the "Sleepers' Realm" and many of the "laggards", as well as many beautiful spirits who belong to the Ceremonial (Seventh) Ray. We are sure that many of you will want to assist those so recently come from the "Compound" by calling for the transmutation of all their destructive karma before taking embodiment here. You see, through old habit of thought and feeling, resentment and rebellion have qualified the energies of their lifestreams for ages. Will you please so pray for these? Pray also, dear ones, for protecting Grace for the lovely, pure spirits who as yet know no tarnish of Earth's shadows, coming as they are now from other Stars and other Planets of greater light so that, through radiation, they may help to expand Earth's light more quickly. Call that they may not take on the contagion of the shadows here as they come into Earth bodies through the best of the lifestreams we have to offer in the families which make up the masses of Earth's people. 

Pray with me, too, that the Holy Mother Mary may have at her command as she fashions their hearts, the full accumulated momentums of all the Violet Fire which you have built into your Causal Bodies and utilized in your applications these long years. This is constructively qualified substance of your own lifestreams and, if you will, you can offer it to Beloved Mary and so make it available to purify and bless every lifestream as it passes through her Temple of the Sacred Heart. I know you will all enjoy giving this service and I personally thank every one of you who does give it. 

Visit Here of Solar Lords of Violet Fire 

From the Higher Galaxies into the atmosphere of Earth during this twenty-four hour period today, when my Coronation as Divine Ruler of the Seventh Ray upon the Earth for the next two thousand year period is being honored so graciously (not only on Earth but in Heaven's Realms as well), there have come twenty-five of the great Solar Lords from the Violet Fire Temples. These Beings are so tremendous in size as well as in power that, to the outer sight of unascended mankind, they would even appear frightening. However, they are the magnificent glory of Divine Love embodied! These great Solar Lords are on a mission of Divine light and love, enroute to the Planetary System which follows this one to which the Earth belongs. But, having been attracted here today by the glorious Coronation activities which have been so kindly prepared for me at Inner Levels, they stopped to visit with us for this twenty-four hour period. It is always the nature of Divine Love to be grateful for opportunity to serve for, in so doing, Divine love and light are permanently expanded. These magnificent Solar Lords desire to add the blessing of their light to the Earth as their gift to me on this day. 

Saint Germain's Long dreamed of Vision "World Brotherhood" - Now Becoming Fact! 

As you know, beloved ones, today is "May Day". Those words "May Day" mean so very much to me personally for, even as a small child, that day was always set aside for me by my mother as a sort of holiday for us both. Nicholas and Lady Bacon (in whose home and family I spent the very early years of my life) would always dress me with such care for this holiday, often placing around my shoulders a violet cape (sometimes of velvet or, if the weather was too warm for that, of some lovely lighter material) . I remember thinking about that coming day all the night before as your children dream of Christmas morn on Christmas eve. Then on "May Day", my own mother and I would go into the lovely woodland to leisurely walk and talk together, pick the early violets and, generally, enjoy the feeling of the close companionship which was denied me the rest of the year. 

Then, much later, (but also on a May day), I took my leave from all further physical embodiments upon this sweet Earth when I finally accepted the full Victory of my Ascension. I remember that day so well, the sweet fragrance of the flowers in the garden of that home in Transylvania as it came on the soft breeze through the open window of the room where I was. I remember well experiencing the feeling one has when he is obliged to leave a task not quite completed. You see, at that time, my "Utopia" was only a book; my dreams only written into the lines of the Shakespearean plays and upon the hearts of a few faithful students. If it had not been that my Superiors thought it wise for me to take the Ascension at that time, I think I could not have left the Earth in that hour with my Vision still unfulfilled. Yet, in loving obedience to their great wisdom, I did. 

Grateful indeed am I to you, my faithful students who have embodied again and again since that time, taking that Vision into your own consciousness and endeavoring to make it real and tangible here practical in this world of form. The establishment of the reality of this Vision is taking place first here in your beautiful United States of America, which was brought into being through the loving co-operation of my faithful students and myself. It shall expand and expand until It is world-wide, a great SPIRITUAL FREEDOM which has no regard for nationality, creed or color, having regard only for the light within the hearts of all people that light which is endeavoring to illumine their souls. 

We are now coming into the day when World Brotherhood shall be completely understood as an activity which raises the soul to the place where the individualized Christus of each one is externalized by the expansion of the Immortal Three-fold Flame of Eternal Truth through that soul into outer manifestation. In this New Age into which we have now entered, every lifestream, regardless of color, creed or individual status, shall externalize that Holy Christ Self! 

"May Day" has become universally accepted as a day of happiness. Do you think it happenstance that your Air Corps uses the words "May Day" as their distress signal? Ah, no! There is no such thing as "happenstance". When those men are at a point of great distress in the high, blue sky and that word "May Day" goes forth from them who answers? I do! Of course, in their outer consciousness they do not know that, but it is the reason for their having made "May Day" their S.O.S. call for assistance. We are interested in your Air Corps and we are interested as well in every constructive activity which takes place within the Earth, on its surface or in its atmosphere for this Earth is to become "Freedom's Star". This achievement I have dreamed of for so long as I have told you often before my Vision of World Brotherhood which I tried to force into existence here before its time. I, for one, can tell you that human feelings of disappointment do not last long when the soul is filled with Grace. 

"Patience Brings Its Own Reward" 

In that day long ago, before my Ascension, although the authority of the Throne and Crown of England (which I felt was rightfully mine and from which I thought I could direct the bringing about of World Brotherhood for all the Nations) was denied me, yet the great God of Mercy now has given me the Throne of Eternal Freedom and the undisputed Divine Authority to be the presiding Ruler for this magnificent Permanent Golden Age of Freedom which already has begun upon this Planet and which is four years old today! 

Ah, beloved ones, in those days before my Ascension (in my last Earth life as Francis Bacon), not understanding the completeness of the Divine Plan, I wept often in disappointment because I felt so strongly within myself the great possibilities of that which I could accomplish in the way of fulfilling my Vision, if my rightful heritage were only mine! Within my very self I experienced "The Tempest" that comes within the feelings of the outer self when a much-desired vision is not fulfilled at the very instant when the outer mind thinks it should be. Long, long ago I was shown clearly and saw so perfectly just what was the Divine God-design for this earth. In those days, it seemed as though the only way and means open to me to present my Vision to the world was through the Shakespearean plays and through the various articles which I wrote (some of which I was able to publish) as Francis Bacon. Finally, in that embodiment, as I have told you, one day I made a rather unostentatious departure from this world of form, making my conscious Ascension from the home of a dear friend in Transylvania. 

Now I come again with my glorious Vision, a Vision of a world where there is neither cause for nor results of sin; where there is no pain, unhappiness or need for tears; where there is no disease, no disintegration and no death! In this Vision, there is absolute liberty and freedom for all who embody here (at the close of his or her lifestream's experiences) to take his or her leave of this Planet in dignity and joy in the victory of his or her own individual Ascension. Thus, does each one become a wholly Divine Being eternally free and perfect in the complete fulfillment of his or her own Divine Plan. Oh, dear hearts is not the bringing into manifestation of such a Vision worth all the loving, dedicated service you can give, at least for all the rest of this Earth life? Many, many times all through the centuries, I have given my life for this Cause (and to help you to personal victory as well) and our Beloved Morya has done the same. Now, we must depend upon you to help us, conscious chelas, for to whom else can we look for such service? To this end have we invested our life and love so that you would be prepared to serve until those new life-streams are raised up to carry forward the light which you have guarded and expanded thus far. 

"Hurry" - A Dangerous Habit 

These days are days of great acceleration as the Earth's axis is being permanently straighten and the Planet moves rapidly forward at the same time. The entire System of which Beloved Helios and Vesta are Sun-God and Goddess is also rapidly moving forward which, of course, makes it necessary for the vibratory action of your own bodies to be "stepped up" a certain amount every twenty-four hours, just as much as you can comfortably stand. Here may I bring to your attention this IMPORTANT point that, because of this acceleration of the speed of your four lower bodies (your emotional bodies - feelings; your mental bodies - thoughts; your etheric bodies - memories; and even your physical, flesh bodies) there is often the tendency to HURRY. 

You see, it just naturally follows that the vibratory action of your world must accelerate as you purify yourselves more and more; then, too, it must accelerate as you accept our assistance which comes to you through the radiation of our light and love. This "radiation" which we give is our very own life, the actual substance of our Being and that substance quite naturally vibrates much faster than do your own worlds here. So you can easily understand why your worlds vibrate faster than those of the masses of the people. Now, with the added acceleration of the Planet itself, you sometimes individually feel the tendency to hurry and hurry always brings distress of one kind or another. 

It is very necessary for the chela to clearly understand this at the present time so that he will consciously control these feelings. Calling to any of the Ascended Host (particularly to Beloved Gautama, new Lord of the World) in the Name and Authority of your own Beloved "I AM" Presence and asking us to charge your world with our feelings of PERFECT BALANCE in all your activities, will enable you always to take the MIDDLE WAY. This will enable you to enjoy and benefit by this natural acceleration which must take place as our Planet Earth moves into the orbit of Uranus, first and, later, into the orbit of the Planet Venus (the "Love Star") in the System above. 

Such a conscious, watchful control of your energies will enable you also to enjoy, in practical daily living, greater emotional stability, mental alertness, etheric clarity and more physical strength and energy—all of which will allow you always to hold the feelings of balanced poise, dignity and general self-control which are the God qualities and real nature of the Seventh Ray and all who sincerely serve me and my Cause. Remember! You now belong to the Royal House of Freedom! You are accepting my life and love, using my name and representing me to the world. In this regard, to the very best of your individual and collective abilities, I know you will endeavor always to represent me worthily! 

O, we are such happy Beings and sometimes, informally, we laugh and just enjoy life. However, there are other times when we are embodied dignity and there will be times in your own personal experience yet to come when that magnificent quality of Ascended Master dignity will stand you in good stead, were you to develop it now! There will be times in the near future when the qualities which are mine as Lord of the Ceremonial (Seventh) Ray and which I would like you to allow me to invest in you, will help you through certain experiences through which you shall let pass. Will you give me opportunity so to help you? 

Desire for "Place" - A Human Quality 

Beloved ones, let me speak for a moment upon the question of "place" which seems so important to unascended beings. In the Ascended Masters' Realm, we are all ONE in the desire to have the Divine Plan fulfilled all ways everywhere. Our desire is always to have made manifest the greatest good for the greatest number. Each of us has a certain gathered momentum of perfected qualities which we offer in the service of producing such perfection and each of you also has such gathered momentums of perfection, stored in your Causal Body. When there is a requirement for the use and expansion of some Divine quality, whether it be Faith, Protection, Divine Love, Tolerance or whatever it may be, any one of the Spiritual Hierarchy offers himself or herself to fill that place or render that service. 

For instance, think of the great sacrifice of our Beloved Sanat Kumara who, for Love's sweet sake alone, took leave of his beautiful Planet Venus and his Loved Ones there, to blaze the redeeming power of his light and Love upon a Star which had fallen into great distress because of the shadows brought here by the "laggards" from other Planets which had moved forward into greater light. Then, abiding in the lovely Shamballa which had been built for him by those of his own people who had come to prepare a place for him, he also filled the Office (for a time) of the Chohan of the Seventh Ray, always graciously willing to give whatever service was needed at the moment for the greatest good of all. Beloved Gautama also held that same Office as Chohan of the Seventh Ray in days gone by. 

Our Beloved Nada made her Ascension many, many centuries before the Beloved Jesus yet, today, as Beloved Jesus and Kuthumi in combined service, have taken the Office of Cosmic Christ and World Teacher, Beloved Nada has accepted the post of Chohan of the Sixth Ray, where she is serving with great Grace. Beloved Lanto, although having fitted himself for service in the Higher Planes, in July of this year is taking over the Office of Chohan of the Second Ray. So, you who are so vitally interested in our Cause and serve us well in these momentous days, consider not the importance of your particular place of serving. Just be grateful for opportunity to release the full gathered momentums of the good which is in your Causal Bodies to anchor and hold this Activity firm and immovable in the power and powers of Love Divine, until we can reach the masses of the people and until SPIRITUAL LIBERTY has been added to POLITICAL LIBERTY which, as a gift from myself, America has known. Upon you I depend for this assistance in this day and hour. 

Gossip - A Most Destructive Practice! 

Before we close the address today, may we lovingly request that all of you, individually and collectively, call to Beloved Pallas Athena (Goddess of Truth) as well as to the Beloved Goddess of Liberty and Goddess of Light, to loose their mighty Light Rays into the causes and cores of all gossip and remove them, cause, effect, record and memory forever! Beloved ones, I tell you that, as an unascended being, I suffered much from that human quality. As an Ascended Being, I can truthfully say to you that gossip can do more harm than physical murder! As Roger Bacon you know that I was called a "charlatan" and that as I walked the streets, women would cover their children's heads with their aprons lest my shadow fall upon them. 

Now the only thing I was doing in those days was endeavoring to teach some brilliantly minded men who had no money to pay for an education. Most of the professors of that day exacted large fees while I asked for none. I lived on little more than bread, a small sustenance indeed and that which I did was quite harmless. However, the fact that I was not living up to the code of the other professors in the school caused gossip to spread. They thought that, in the little dark room which we used, we were performing feats of "black magic" when we were studying only geography and calculus. 

As Francis Bacon I again took the lash of gossip upon my shoulders but that time voluntarily to save the face of England's James who had conveniently borrowed all of the money from the national exchequer. Even today, on the records of English history, the name of Francis Bacon is not yet cleared. However, so far as your worlds are concerned and the worlds of all connected in any way with our Activity, let no one have anything more to do with this unfortunate human habit! 

Now, although there is still much which I could say to you today, let me close with these few words: 

You are my dearly beloved children! In you I have invested my very life and my faith that, as I place in your hands the protection and sustenance of the Seventh Ray and its glorious activities (as it takes its dominion here upon Earth) , you will all be constant and steadfast in this service until my Beloved Portia and I can stand forth visible and tangible to all. Then the veil of maya will have been forever parted, and we shall be able to take our places as the King and Queen of the New Era of God-freedom, the PERMANENT GOLDEN AGE which already has been begun upon your Faith in us and which, I know, you will sustain and expand for Love's sweet sake!

Thank you and Good morning!
