THE PURIFICATION OF THE ETHERIC BODY

Excerpts from an Address by Beloved Archangel Michael

May I speak to you just for a moment about the etheric body? The etheric body, beloved ones, is like a mirror. It records instantly the thoughts and feelings, the actions of the spoken words into its very self. It imitates that which you do, what your attention rests upon, and mirrors that as well. 

The etheric bodies of mankind have been so scarred, so mutilated, so deeply marred by the experiences of life that they look for the most part a sorry sight. They are what you would call in Earth life seemingly "pock-marked". These garments carry the scars of all the disappointments, the disillusionments, the hurts; all of the experiences wherein mankind has destroyed faith and trust and confidence. 

These experiences imbedded in the etheric body seemingly lie quiescent. Even as your flesh mends a cut or a wound, so does the intelligence and light within the etheric body weave over the scars and wounds a similar semblance of repaired tissue. BUT under tension of stress and strain, those inner experiences and weaknesses are likely to burst forth again in renewed hatreds, renewed antagonisms, and it is my counsel to you to set about in earnest purifying those etheric garments making them shine, as they once were pure white, exquisite, when you received them first and began to record through cause and effect the experiences of life into them. 

What mankind does to one another in creating those deep wounds in the etheric body is much more unfortunate than the distortions woven into the physical form, because when the form is laid down, the innocent flesh returning to the elemental substance, the wound does not remain. The etheric garment moves with man from his first embodiment until it is absorbed at the time of transmutation, at the instant of the Ascension. 

So watch ye well, beloved hearts, what impress ye make on the etheric garments one of the other and watch ye well that ye purify those energies of your own'. 

I speak from a heart that is filled with love for you. I speak on behalf of the Angelic Kingdom and my beloved brothers, the great Ascended Host of Light who represent the seven Cosmic Feelings of the Nature of God. 

I would like to remind you that the first sin, the original sin that drew the Angels from Heaven, mankind from the Garden of Eden and the elements into embroilment was REBELLION against the Will of God! Will you look deep within your hearts and where rebellion flares; know you that is part of the original sin which brought you into the shadow planet. I shall help you to remove it! 

Beloved Serapis is endeavoring to draw into the physical appearance world certain melodies which will help to set up at inner levels the removing of those cores of rebellion which are seated deep in the feeling world, for man shall not become God, man shall not manifest as Angels, until rebellion is transmuted into the great surrender to God and love for his fellow man!
