THE GOAL OF ALL MANKIND - THE ASCENSION

The will (desire) to do is the activity of motivation. It is the free will choice of any self-conscious intelligence to use life for a certain purpose. This choice is made by every individual (Ascended or unascended). It is primarily an activity of feeling. Until the individual feels deep within himself a desire to do God's Will, there cannot be permanent progress of the soul toward sublimation of the lower nature and expansion of God's Kingdom on this planet. When such a deep desire arises from within the confines of the soul and animates the feelings, the mind and then, particularly, the physical vehicle, we are enabled to help such an one to set into motion the necessary causes (at Inner Levels) which will manifest as a change of vibratory action in his four lower bodies (emotional, mental, etheric and physical forms) and the world around him. Such an one who, through free will, so decides to do God's Will becomes a channel through which our full gathered Cosmic Momentum of knowledge, understanding and services flow... in the form of ideas which enter the conscious mind and which can be developed by such an individual, if he desires to follow through with the necessary use of his disciplined faculties until such an idea becomes a manifest fact. Unfortunately, however, many such ideas are "stillborn", remaining only as visions and few are translated into practical works for the benefit of the race. The ones who do follow through in the process of creating from an idea a beneficial manifestation, are ascending daily, hourly, into greater personal mastery, as well as being of great use to the Spiritual Hierarchy who desire, through them, to bless the race.

The quality of the energy which forms the vehicles of man is determined, primarily, by the free-will choice of each individual in the use of those vehicles through the ages. The vibratory action of these is also determined by what they have been "fed" by the lifestream through the long course of individualization, This "feeding" of the lower vehicles (emotional, mental, etheric and physical) is determined by the type of teaching which he has accepted; the associations with his fellow man; what his attention is allowed to rest upon and, generally, the nature of his free-will choice of thought, feeling, spoken word, actions and memory. Very few people know that they can govern, through calling to their "I AM" Presence, their thoughts, their feelings, their speech, their physical activities and their memories. Rather, most people are used by their vehicles, instead of using them as God intends. Thus the vehicles of a man become his master rather than his servants. 

Once man realizes that his powers of thought, feeling, spoken word, physical action and memory can be consciously controlled (not by human will but by the Christ within him) he comes under the direction of the Brothers of the Second Ray. Our specific service is to show such a one how to take the "idea" and form it into an actual practical cup. This requires the control of the mental body and its use in creating such a cup and sustaining it against the doubts, fears, ridicule and discouragements of himself and others. When the mental body is thus trained, it ascends out of the "mass-mind" and the individual truly thinks. Most of mankind does not think for themselves, preferring to use the already designed thoughts of others, accepting them as fact. This, although it is the lazy man's way, slows down the vibratory action of the mental body, which then just functions as a repository of all the knowledge already gathered in a certain strata of thought. 

Such people repeat, like parrots, the already expressed thoughts of others rather than ascending into a receptive consciousness where God himself can direct his thoughts. Then, if such a one chooses to develop those thoughts, he can make of these thoughts practical manifest expressions in the world in which he abides. The more a man really thinks, not revolved others' thoughts, the quicker the vibratory action of his mental body becomes: the more alert it is to the Divine Pattern the less such a one becomes a prey to the mass thought of the day. Thus using the mental body makes it elastic, alert, alive and receptive to Divine Inspiration. This is the Ascension of the mental body out of mass thought into individual reception and individual creation of Divine Ideation.

BELOVED KUTHUMI 

All the vehicles of man are composed of infinitesimal particles of energy, qualified by the individual himself through the long ages of his individualization, with a certain type of sensitivity to various strata of thought, feeling, memory and activity. The development of these vehicles progresses according to the freewill choice of each individual in the use of life. Concerning the four lower bodies, if they are sluggish, lethargic and uncontrolled, the individual has poor reception in so far as Divine Ideas, Divine Grace and God Assistance are concerned. When the Christ in man quickens the vibratory action of his vehicles, he is literally "born again" into a new world where thoughts, feelings, memories and activities of a higher nature form the stimulus for his life and expression. This is the state of the consciousness referred to by Beloved Jesus when he spoke of the "quick and the dead." The transmutation of the energy particles; the use of the individual's vehicles for constructive purposes; the experimentation with the power of thought, feeling, spoken word, recollection of perfection, as well as practical physical works in a constructive endeavor, naturally raise the vehicles into a Higher Strata of consciousness. This process of raising the vibratory action of the individual's vehicles is known as the Ascension into the pure Light in which we dwell.

BELOVED SERAPIS BEY 

In my own experience, I had to be consciously on guard throughout my Earth-life so that I did not accept, through the avenue of the senses, the appalling human appearances with which I was surrounded. It took a tremendous effort not to accept these appearances as real. Out of my own experience, I made the statements "Judge not according to appearances... my mother, Beloved Mary; my father, Beloved Joseph (now Saint Germain); my Guru, Lord Maitreya and the Angelic Host gave me tremendous assistance in keeping my inner vehicles, as well as my physical body, free from the mass consciousness of that Era. If I had allowed my Consciousness or vehicles to tie into the appearances of distress and imperfection around me, the vibratory action of all my vehicles would have been lowered and the resultant density of those vehicles would have "shut off" the flow of Spiritual Vitality required to achieve a public Ascension. You, each one, are either ascending or descending, according to that to which you allow your attention to flow. In your final hours, your Ascension will be determined by the vibratory action of your inner vehicles, as well as that of your flesh body. This I say... your Ascension does not manifest as the result of a moment's grace but of entire embodiments of vigilance, self-control, self-mastery, aspiration and service to God.

BELOVED JESUS

The activity of the Violet Flame is to help to remove the miscreations consciously to unconsciously filling the emotional, mental, etheric and physical strata in which mankind abide. When these mis-creations have been removed and, most important, the desire to create further imperfection has been removed from those on the Earth and in its atmosphere, we shall be well on our way toward creating, through Illumined men and women, the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth WHICH SHALL NOT PASS AWAY. Why? Because the feelings motivating the design of God's Kingdom of Perfection on Earth will sustain the creation of a Permanent Golden Age. Few know of the power of sublimation in the use of the Violet Flame; fewer still have learned to use this Transmuting Power.
