The intensification of the Flame of Freedom in the heart of the Transylvanian Retreat was effected by the direction of a Cosmic Ray from the Great Central. Sun and the physical Sun of our system at the exact moment when the vibratory action of the Rocky Mountain Retreat receded into its usual pulsation. This added impetus of the directed Rays from the Sun expanded the Sphere of influence from Transylvania just as an added release of electrical current lights a greater area in the physical appearance world. 

The Ascended Masters and all emancipated Beings who direct their consciousness and individual powers to the Councils being held, again intensified by the parent Flame of Freedom by their own Lights each one contributing from the very substance of his own Heart an added stimulus which again expanded the sphere of influence. As the momentum gathered and as the magnetic power of the cause of Freedom began to attract the conscious and unconscious members of the human race, seen with the inner eye, wave after wave of an outward flowing substance of Freedom, like a growing tide, expands the periphery of Freedom's Flame until even from our state of consciousness, the ultimate accomplishment cannot be estimated until the contributing factor of each free-will being has poured the substance of his own life into the momentum already gathered here. 

All during the period while the Councils are in session and the individual Masters are engaged in the instruction of their students, there is a successive group compromised of Angelic, Cosmic and Devic Hosts who form the anchorage through which the Rays from the Central Sun and the physical Sun are directed into the Flame Rooms where the actual cosmic Flame of Freedom has burned undimmed through the centuries. Into this Holy of Holies no unascended being could enter and retain his equilibrium. Therefore, outside of the circular room in which the actual Flame is focused we have three circular corridors wherein the Light of Freedom's Flame is tempered and the development and maturity of the attending student determines how close he can come to the Flame Room, receive the benefits derived from its Radiant Presences and yet not be overpowered by its Light. 

In each of these corridors there are always present twelve of the Ascended Host, who regulate and balance the inner bodies or the visitants so that they may receive the greatest possible benefit from such close proximity to Freedom's Flame and can carry that radiation back into their own personal atmosphere and orbit on reentering the physical world in the waking state. Each group who is allowed entrance into one of the three outer rooms has signified before the Angel Deva of the Freedom Flame his own heartfelt desire to contribute to that Flame by the expenditure of his own voluntary energies and this is the 'passport' which allows him such entrance. 

The direction of the Heart Flame from the Great Central Sun and the physical Sun, the Angelic, Devic and Cosmic Hosts, as well as from the ascended Masters and the members of the human race is regulated by the rhythmic Breath. The out breath of the Sun is followed by the out breath of all connected with the adoration and devotion to the Freedom Flame and the Heart essence is absorbed into that Flame, making a concentration of power. Then all participants drew the Flame inward into their own bodies holding it until the Master in charge of their action bids them to direct it outward to the periphery of the sphere of influence or the Transylvanian Retreat. At the instant that the individuals begin to out breathe this Flame, the concentrated Heart Flame itself begins to expand through the conductors Divine and human. 

To look at the action of this Retreat from above, it would seem like a great breathing wheel the Light concentrated in the hub and then flashing out to the periphery and again returning to the hub in each rhythmic pulsation of the breath. Now, every life stream that is drawn within the actual physical aura of the Retreat is blessed by the radiation on the out breath or the Flame, but only those who have signified within their hearts a desire to spread the Cause of Freedom become actual participating factors in extending, the periphery of its sphere of influence. The many hundreds of thousands who float in a somnambulistic state in the atmosphere in and above and around the retreat are more or less absorbers, their value mainly laying in the fact that as their inner bodies are mechanically and electrically charged with the substance, intelligence, power and quality of Freedom's Cause, they do bring that back with them into their waking state and it becomes an emanating force for good in their communities as well in their individual endeavors to live a constructive and positive life. 

Those who enter into the great circular room are really batteries of such tremendous concentrated power that it is with the wisdom of centuries of experience that I say the guard over this added energy must be maintained by the alert indwelling spirit that the mental, emotional and physical bodies particularly, do not dissipate this greet gift through misqualifying the cosmic energies in any discordant manner. 

After about an hour in which the lifestream is engaged in the Adoration to the Flame, as described above, he is then free to enter the particular council chamber where the Masters are working on current projects, most of which are connected with the dispensations granted by the Lords of Karma in July. Here they may act through their etheric or Higher Mental Bodies and the other instruments - mental, emotional and physical - are released for their training in the school rooms which are being presently provided through the kind offices of Kuthumi, Lord Maitreya and Jesus and Mary. 

Any student who chooses then, may make his own home and environment a similar wheel and following the pattern and visualization set forth above, become an outpost of the Flame directed from the Heart of the Transylvanian Retreat at this time and in the future, duplicate this activity in cooperation with whatever Retreat Sanat Kumara designates to be the focus for the Great White Brotherhood in the coming days.
