(September 29, 1960)
Temple of Illumined Faith and Protection, Banff, Canadian Rocky Mountains, U.S.A.
Letter from the Maha Chohan to the Transmission of the Flame Class of
September 17th, 1960
Beloved Ones seeking freedom from distress for yourselves and all life everywhere:
It is our joy to join the great Archangel Michael in his Focus of Illumined Faith at Banff. How many times through the ages has he personally freed you from your own misdemeanors as well as the astral effluvia of the entire Earth and her unascended evolutions. Patience and Love are embodied in the Presence of this Beloved Prince of the Archangels and his Royal Court of Angels, who defend, protect, illumine and set free all imprisoned life, when a chela (unascended) asks him so to do.
As the Anniversary Day in his honor, is September 29th in each year, I personally ask that you, each one, who has had the kindly services of Lord Michael and his Godfree Angels, give to him some special blessing from your own dear worlds.
The Sponsors from Lord Michael's Ascended Master Legions are Great Angels, clothed in Sapphire Blue Garments, with sword, shield, helmet and visor, who come with you or go for you to those in distress. Accept their Living Presence, beloved, for they are Beings of Light, at your command!
Love and Blessings
Maha Chohan

THE TASK OF THE EXTERNALIZED CONSCIOUSNESS
By the Ascended Master Saint Germain
In the precipitation of the Divine Consciousness into and through the four lower vehicles provided as instruments of manifestation, the consciousness so extended into the manifest plane of physical expression was provided as a Transformer of the Divine Ideas into the substance and energy of the lower world; thus the Divine Perfection already completed in the Mind and Heart of God was to be drawn through the Consciousness thus provided and the atoms and molecules of the third dimensional plane coalesced around the Divine Ideas so created according to the Divine Blue Print.
The externalized consciousness
The consciousness thus sent forth from the Divine Mind was to be the interpreter of the Divine Ideation and the interpretation was to follow the original exactly as to form and detail.
In other words, the important task of the externalized consciousness was to receive into itself that portion of the Divine Plan allotted to it for expression and then to use the creative faculties to express that Divine Plan impressed upon it from above.
Your environment is the outpicturing of your consciousness
Every man, woman and child in the universe interprets the Divine Plan today according to their individual capacity and the outpicturing of a person's environment and association is the result of his or her accurate or faulty interpretation of it. The home in which they live, the environment in which they move and their particular place in the evolutionary scheme of commerce, industry or domestic affairs is but the outpicturing of what their consciousness is capable of receiving from the Realm of Truth.
The cause of limitation
The denser, more impure and heavy the consciousness the less it can tune into the Truth, and, therefore, its interpretation of Life, resulting in limitation, is not accurate nor in any measure cooperative with the expansion of the Kingdom.
How to fulfill your destiny
Your consciousness, each one, has become embedded and ingrained with much imperfection through centuries of life's experience, but as your attention is upon purification and Truth your instruments of interpretation will become more alert, more accurate and more receptive to the Divine Will, and as you interpret more and more Truth so will that expanded consciousness externalize greater perfection.
Cultivating the Ascended Master Consciousness in your quiet thinking and feeling and your hourly living is to build into your spirit the only eternal riches, beauty and happiness, which comes from fulfilling your destiny as an Interpreter of the Ever-Present Good.
The four lower bodies
The folds of consciousness form an actual substance made up of the elements in which the four lower bodies function. The four lower bodies are the weavers of the universal light substance into the complicated intricate pattern which forms the consciousness of every lifestream.
Through the substance of these folds a consciousness (representing the creative power) presses into manifestation the conscious or unconscious imaging and picturization of the individual and the quality of manifestation is more or less tempered by the actual substance of the consciousness through which it flows.
The quality of the manifestation
The old statement, "Through a soiled garment the Light will not shine" refers to the absolute necessity of a highly purified consciousness in order to interpret and manifest the perfection contemplated in the inner imaging, because no matter how beautiful the picturization may be, if the folds of consciousness are sullied, as the image is pressed through these folds (just as grapes are pressed through a cloth to separate the pulp and the seeds from the juice) so is the Divine Ideation presented or injected into the consciousness by the Higher Self, but the sum total of the consciousness of the individual, through whose faucet and consciousness the perfection is to come determines the quality of the manifestation.
The purification of the four lower bodies
It is, therefore expedient for the conscious student upon the Path to accelerate the cosmic purification of the four lower bodies in order that the folds of consciousness emitted from every individual and forming the collective "Cup of transmutation" might be utilized by the Gods and that they might find a perfect clean vessel of transmutation that would not dim the glory of each individual manifestation.
