Rays of Spiritual Illumination

Beloved children, the Lord is with you this Christmas Eve, the Lord is everywhere "I AM", and "I AM" within your beating heart This night, as this small Planet whirls upon her orbit and, as the consciousness of mankind think kindly upon the Angelic Host, the Celestial Choir and the activities preceding and following the first nativity, it is a beautiful sight to see so much pure Golden Light from this shadow Star, so much Pink Flame expanding out into the Universe and the Galaxy to which it belongs, making the Earth look more like the Freedom Star it is destined to be. 

I have come close into the atmosphere of Earth this Holy Season, it is naturally so, you come when you are called, when your name is spoken, when your intercession is asked. You come, even unascended, to those you love in order to give the assistance, the benediction and the strength of your lifestream when you are invited so to do. 

Through this season, dedicated to the advent of my beloved son upon this sorrowing Planet, the door is open for me also, and I come close to the children of Earth, the children of my bosom, the children of my heart. While I have proximity to their consciousness, while they are thinking upon me, and while their words rise in prayer and song, I endeavor to convey with clarity and strong pressure the Immaculate Concept which I hold for each such a one, for each of you, and every soul upon this Planet.

For all those released from the compound, every sleeper, I hold the Concept of the Divine Man or Woman with flaming heart, majestic Presence, infinite power, co-creators with the Father of All. That Concept which I held for one dear Being long ago, and which did manifest against all the vicissitudes of fate, manifested in a man of strength and vital fire, through whom the miracle working energies of healing flowed freely, and who mastered even so-called death. So that same Immaculate Concept which I hold for you must yield to me because the Law is impersonal and must yield to me the same mastery and dignity and maturity through the souls in which you yet find yourselves bound. I SHALL LOVE YOU FREE, I SHALL LOVE YOU FREE, I SHALL LOVE YOU FREE, for you are my children, and all of this evolution, all of the souls that are the distorted outer selves of man, shall one day be transfigured and transmuted to make the Sons and Daughters of Freedom's Star a manifest expression upon this worlds! 

THE WORD IS MADE FLESH IN YOU: 

Beloved ones, it was said long ago that "The Word was made Flesh' and dwelt among the peoples of Earth. Is that not true with every embodiment that takes place? As every individual takes embodiment, is not the capacity and power of the creative word "I AM" made flesh, and through that one given an opportunity to express the Christ Estate? So every day upon this Planet Earth, where an infant cries, where a mother is delivered and a child is born, the great "I AM" is again made flesh. When that infant reaches the point where the Holy Christ Self can control the vehicles of the vocal passage and identify himself, he will use that Word made Flesh and recognize himself as that "I AM"! Truly it is sad indeed that from that first initial recognition he so soon is drawn by the shadows that surround him into limitation and distresses in the homes and families into which he must take habitation. 

Individuals who are to become parents do not understand ANYTHING of what they might do to cooperate with the body elemental and the builders of form in the creation of an instrument of such perfection through which the lifestream functioning could serve. If particularly, the women of the race could come to an understanding of their part in the actual forming of the nature of the child they hold, we could redeem this race so much more rapidly, but for the most part they allow nature and the builders of form, and the body elemental to continue the miraculous and marvelous process of the creation of this physical instrument and let the soul take care of itself and marvel for a moment at the miracle of birth! 

Beloved ones, I know of what I speak, having passed through an experience and an initiation which very few women upon this Earth have ever been forced to pass. Have you thought of the flawless lifestream of the Master Jesus, of the beauty of the emotional world so filled with love and light that he was chosen to be a Representative to mankind of the Father of the entire System; an emotional body as delicate, as gentle as a dove, and yet as strong in its mighty faith as was required; a mental body so alert and receptive to the directions of the God-Self and the Presence; a delicate etheric garment magnificent, without blemish, without one scar or one stain; that is the Being who I looked upon before I even asked for opportunity to prepare a physical garment FITTING for the habitation of such a Spirit. 

THE PREPARATION OF THE EXPECTANT MOTHER: 

Think you, you who have been given a test of a day, or of seven, to maintain happiness or peace; think you what it would be if you were to remain nine full months and not allow one ripple of energy that passed through your emotions, your mind, your memory, your words or your actions that would make the slightest stigmata upon the coming Avatar! When the great Beings ask you to try to hold an emotional stability or a mental buoyancy, an etheric resurrection of your good, you are not asked within yourself the responsibility of performing the great service of fashioning a physical vehicle as fine as the most magnificent carved ivory, as delicate as a rose petal, and yet as strong as steel! 

Beloved ones, that service that I rendered helps me to know what the women of the race could do were they, the moment that they knew they were with child, to endeavor to hold themselves emotionally at peace, tuning in to my vibratory action or that of the Beloved Kwan Yin, keeping their minds upon clean and pure and beautiful thoughts, washing their memories of the impurities of the past, and keep their physical bodies as Temples of the Most High Living God! 

It is my dream and my prayer, and that of Kwan Yin, that a day shall come when every mother will kneel as I did before Gabriel and consecrate all of the energies of the lifestream to preparing the most perfect vehicle for the incoming soul; when every mother may say "Behold the handmaiden of the Lord"; when there may be no mother in shame, in fear, distress; no mother who through arrogance or vanity would ever destroy the life within their bodies. THIS MUST COME ON THE EARTH, beloved ones, for I who work in the Sacred Heart Temple, I have looked upon the lifestreams that await embodiment, that elemental substance which is the soul's heritage, I have endeavored to purify it. 

WE ARE ANSWERING YOUR PRAYERS: 

Beloved children of the One God, there are many prayers going up to me from sick beds, from death beds, from birth beds; there are Prayers and there are Masses and there are calls, and all of these are gathered by the great Silent Watchers of the various continents, and it has formed a magnificent radiation into the higher atmosphere over which we are returning the benediction and the blessing of the Light into the hearts of the student body and then of all mankind. 

I remind you again, as I did long ago, you are the Diamond Heart fashioned from my very own hands, with my own heart's love - each cell, each lifestream polished and brought to its fullest luster and through this Diamond Heart may the currents of healing, the currents of peace and the currents of purity, the currents and radiation of healing and Light flow to mankind throughout the world. 

On this Christmas Eve the entire Planet is receiving that benediction, that blessing, that outpouring as they commemorate the first Holy Christ Mass. Some of you have been thinking on that as I have, for we are individuals like unto you. We have memories too, but out of these memories have been taken all the barbs and all the sadness and all the bitterness, only the sweetness and the perfume remains. When we recount our tales, as sometimes we do, we have individuals who say they are only supposed to remember the happy things, how then do they bring to mind those things that were of travail? 

WE CAN USE EVEN THOSE WHO HAVE HUMAN FRAILTIES: 

Beloved Ones, it was Lord Maitreya, in his great mercy, seeing the earnestness of your dear hearts, seeing the strong measure of your own soul's worth, and seeing your feelings of incapacity to do these works, it was he who said, "Show them that you, too, once had feet of clay; that you walked the ways of Earth; You, too, knew joy and sorrow, uncertainty, and in showing them, perhaps they will have new courage that just because they have frailties it does not mean that we cannot use them in Cosmic ways." 

I have thought back today on the times of the first Christmas, and some of you wondered why I made that journey from Nazareth into Bethlehem; some of you wondered why Joseph himself could not have accomplished it, and I, at that time had certain thoughts about the wisdom of taking such a precious child upon a long and weary way. Yet the records and the prophecies has said, and the Cosmic finger of the hand of time, that in Bethlehem there would be born the Beloved One. So I was willing, even against reason, to go as we discussed it pro and con. Joseph felt the season was inclement and perhaps the place not as important as the perfection of the form and the protection of me and of the child I was inclined to agree with him, but then, within me rose that same tremendous impulse that I always felt was the approach of the Angelic Host, and I said, "I shall make the journey with You." So we went, the story you well know, and the manifestation of our Beloved Jesus and his Victory in the Light. 

MY LUMINOUS PRESENCE IS WITH YOU: 

As you come to your midnight hour, and as we come to the climax of our outpouring of the Christmas Season, I will be, through my Luminous Presence, in every church, on every altar, in every home where my Presence is thought of or my son's name or birthday is kept. 

Thank you, and a Holy, Holy Christ Mass, and a magnificent God Victorious New Years when you find your inner bodies difficult to master, do think what you would do if you were carrying a Christ within you, and one emotion or thought would necessitate the Builders of Form to abandon that embryo, and the timing, and the Cosmic second be delayed until another mother was found. Now there was no time for a re-conception - so being in a constant state of Harmony was very necessary for me and I did hold on to the Christ within my heart. What do you hold within your hearts? You have the SAME CHRIST! Do you hold your responsibility as I did? Let me help you. That is my reason for being. 

BELOVED MARY, MOTHER OF JESUS
