Shamballa - Long Island ,NY, USA

April 21, 1973

Hail, Spirits of Fire, you who have consecrated your energies to the expansion of the Light of this Planet, I greet you this Holy Day.

Kindly be seated.

I invite you to consciously join your attention and energies with my Momentum of Consecration... and reverently thank the Supreme Source for the Gift of Life. Father-Mother God we do kneel in your hearts in adoration as we renew our vows of dedication to thy Holy Cause of Freedom for this Earth! How I love the words in your sacred song of Consecration, and every time it is sung or played it provides me with a greater opportunity to impregnate your consciousness with the Essence of the Flame of Consecration, and as that substance flows into your beings, and you are in the Christ Consciousness, the Golden Man within sends it forth to bless the evolutions of this Earth in an accelerated manner.

How deeply have you considered the Vow of Consecration which you took many years ago, when you put your feet upon the Path toward spiritual fulfillment? Yes, you have done exceedingly well, but it is my desire, my responsibility, this day to further impress upon your consciousness that your every act, word or deed should be one of Consecration.

Let us turn our attention to the Holy Mother Mary, who with her every breath, used the Flame of Consecration - and to that great Exemplar Jesus, whom we specifically honor at this time, who followed the purpose of dedication unto his Victorious Accomplishment!

Beloved ones, Consecration is the releasing of positively qualified energy in a harmonious manner, with the conscious knowledge that it is one's responsibility to expand the borders of the Father's Kingdom. As an individual is planting seeds in a garden, he is consecrating his energies to a purpose - that of bringing forth Beauty and he uses the Flame of Expectancy, of Faith, that the seeds will mature into that Perfection. The ultimate outcome will depend upon the elemental who is to develop the flower under the direction of the Deva in charge.

The same is true of a lifestream, the Father-Mother God has planted the Seed within him, and according to the cooperation of the individual will it mature and outpicture the Perfection ordained for him. The little elemental has to try again and again until he brings forth the design given to him - and the same applies to the individual who is required to take embodiment upon embodiment until the glorious Christ Self may step forth and express through him at all times.

One's every act, every thought, word or deed should be one of consecration whether he is serving in the outer world or if he is at home in meditation. It is the motive behind the release of all energy that is of importance. All energy flowing through him, in even the most mundane act, should be clothed in the Love Aspect of Divinity. To do something constructive just to get it done is not the way of the dedicated lifestream. He must, at all times, realize that the Energy flowing through him is the Essence of the Supreme Source, and that his reason for being is to externalize the very Gifts which the Father-Mother God desires to release to the children of his Heart.

May I suggest that upon arising, before the starting of your daily activities, that you turn your attention to me and ask that I reconsecrate your energies to the expansion of the Light of this Planet. Use any statement that issues from your heart, it will take but a moment - and you will be amazed how your feeling of Joy in Service will increase until it has reached such a momentum that you and I will be consciously serving as ONE at all times. In doing so, you will be drawn closer into the service of the establishing of the Brotherhood of Angels and men upon the Earth! A moment's reflection will show you how all avenues of service blend into one.

In consecrating your energy in this manner, the Seven-fold Flames playing upon the Planet would be accelerated, for while you are serving on one or more Rays, another lifestream would be serving on another. All the Rays would be amplified through the dedication of the chelas to the activity of Consecration, and the Earth‘s aura would be a magnificent expression of the Seven Rays.

Since the 15th of this month, the Flame of Resurrection has been accelerated at the Temple of Beloved Jesus and Mary, and when the ceremony of the Transmission of the Breath takes place this evening there will be a tremendous release of Light from that Focus. The mighty Cosmic Beings from other Stars are already here for the Celebration of the greatest Spiritual Feast on this Planet - that of Resurrection and the Life which the Beloved Jesus proved as an Example for all humanity. Beloved Helios and Vesta, Beloved Lord Krishna and Sophia have come and are particularly interested in the service of Consecration because of the Channeling of the Light from Venus, Uranus and Mars, amplifying the activity of Resurrection, or Restoration of the Earth. Turning my attention to the Resurrection Temple, I see the Heavenly Pathways open wide, and out of the Light as of thousands of Suns, steps the mighty Alpha and Omega and Beloved Holy Æolus who are being welcomed by Beloved Paul, the Maha Chohan. They are being escorted to the private reception quarters of the Beloved Mary and Jesus, and immediately following this address, I shall have the privilege of joining them.

On the 15th of this month Beloved Jesus established his Luminous Presence over the Retreat and it will remain in the upper amphitheatre all through the month. How can one express the fact that Beloved Jesus is more radiant than ever! His glorious Presence is truly an exquisite example of the Godhead for all to see... the luminosity of his eyes provides a magnet to draw all closer and deeper into the Cosmic Christ Consciousness. Holy Micah, we bow in humility to your Light, and as you so lovingly draw all Life into the One Consciousness, we pledge our energies to expanded service. Thou mighty One, majestically do you wear the Crown of the Angel of Unity!

Beloved Mary, through the services of the Builders of Form, has provided an exquisite background for Jesus' Presence in the amphitheatre. He is standing in a field of Madonna Lilies, with the soft glow of the Pink Light of Divine Love flowing from his Being.

When the peoples of this Earth come to the Resurrection Focus this month, each will receive a very special benediction which will expand the Christ Consciousness within them, and according to their acceptance shall that Christ Light Expand! This is Beloved Jesus' Gift to the Planet Earth and all her evolutions for providing him a schoolroom upon which he could demonstrate the Christ Principle to all humanity. And the humility of this blessed Being is one which all should emulate. Learn the lesson which the Master did practice, and revere all the elements of this Earth... and embody the tremendous respect which Jesus has for the elements which comprise the Body of the mighty Virgo, and your own vehicles.

As the Beloved Jesus and Mary breathe upon the Flame this evening, Beloved Æolus and the Maha Chohan will be at their sides. As I entered the Flame Room this morning, before coming to Shamballa, my Spirit was filled with ecstasy at the magnificence of the floral arrangement. The lilies were in evidence everywhere, and their fragrance raised my Consciousness ever higher while I listened to the melodious songs of the Angels filling this Chamber in preparation for the expanded activity of the Resurrection Flame and celebration of Easter Morn.

Let us turn our attention to Shamballa, the Etheric Focus is appropriately and exquisitely decorated for the Easter Season. Later in the day Beloved Gabriel will escort the Beloved Lord Gautama, Beloved Sanat Kumara and Lord Divino to the Resurrection Temple. They have chosen to remain at Shamballa for this Class. These Beloved Ones who are in residence at Shamballa have been pouring their Light and Love upon you, and all Life, in anticipation of raising your consciousness ever higher to assist you to actively enter into the true feeling of the Christ.

It is our Heart Prayer that you will remain in that State of Grace!

There are Legions of the Angels of Consecration in the atmosphere over this Sanctuary, and as we come to the conclusion of this Service, before wending their way around the Earth, they will fill your beings and worlds with the amplified Light of Consecration that flows so freely from Beloved Mary's Heart and mine. If you will kindly sing the Song of Consecration, we feel sure, as you renew your Vow of Consecration, that you will be raised into the Christ Consciousness, and we humbly offer you our assistance to remain in that Consciousness.

In the authority of the "I AM" Presence, I, Raphael - a Messenger of the Most High Living God... do re-Consecrate you to Service in the Light! I now enfold you in my 'Wings of Light' and accept their embrace until you are Ascended and Free.
