The Great Karmic Board, through Sanat Kumara, chose the current thirty day period during which the Easter Pageant would again be celebrated as the time when the Lord Maitreya himself would outpour the Radiation and Blessing of the Cosmic Christ. 

In order to give to the chelas, particularly and then to the entire race the triple activity contained within the union of the Cosmic Christ Consciousness with the outer self, the Baptism and Benediction of the Holy Spirit and the Radiation of the Master Jesus himself - beginning last evening and extending up through Easter Monday, following the Resurrection Service, we shall nightly reenact the Spiritual baptism of the Beloved Jesus, at which time the Cosmic Consciousness of the Lord Maitreya joined his own Illumined Christhood, and, through the Benediction of the Holy Spirit, prepared him for the fullness of the Mission which he was to manifest before the sense consciousness of all men. 

Last evening, as the moon poured down her silver rays on the gentle hillside of Kashmir, the Beloved Lord Maitreya entered the atmosphere of earth and our Beloved Master Jesus, walking toward him, was received into his Aura for that Spiritual Baptism, before the reverent eyes of more than four hundred thousand members of the human race. At the moment when the full Rays from Lord Maitreya’s heart flashed through the gentle Presence of Beloved Jesus, I, too, entered the picture and anointed his great Consciousness with the Blessing, which is the particular Gift and Outpouring of my Office. 

It is no idle thing to have re-enacted on the physical substance of the earth plane these great Initiations and Mysteries which form the pattern for the evolution of every lifestream on the planet, both carnate and incarnate. It is one thing to revivify the akashic and etheric records of a past activity and to have re-embodied. lifestreams take the part of the original actors and attempt to incorporate through their own consciousness the nature and feeling of the actual first participants, such as the good men and women of Oberammergau have done through the years, but it is quite another activity to have the original Cosmic Beings voluntarily enter into that Service again in the full, gathered Cosmic Momentum of their Light, and bring that experience into the feeling world of the outer consciousness of unascended beings. 

We shall, on Easter Morning, again proceed with the Activity of the Resurrection and we are told that we shall have again re-enacted through the body of Jesus the actual vibratory action and radiation of the Ascension, and I, myself, shall bring the Release through the Service of the Pentecost. 

It has ever been the Way of God to teach through example, because the enacted scenes enter into the feeling and heartbeat much more deeply than the worded expression, and the outpictured Christ Manifestations which were witnessed by so few during the ministry of the Master Jesus are being drawn forth again within the Seven Day Period, so that all of the 200,000, at least, (and we expect a great number of the Christian people of the world as well who will respond to the Sympathetic Vibration of Jesus Ray) will be able to absorb the feeling of the Christ Activity, as they see the Master himself re-enact the exquisite manifestations of his victorious power over human appearances. 

Lord Maitreya, each evening, will, precede the pageant with a talk on the Power and Nature of the Cosmic Christ, and the Beloved Saint Germain, who so enjoyed the drama whereby lifestreams could present a lesson of some kind, together with some of the Chinese Beings who have inspired all of those exquisite plays through which the people of the East learn the mysteries, have prepared the theme from the Life and Ministry of the Master Jesus, during which he made the blind to see, - the lame to walk, and the dead to rise! 

We are, of course, eliminating all reference to the Trial and Crucifixion, representing the perfidy of the outer self, but have included the formation of the Lord's Prayer, the Sermon on the Mount, the Silencing of the Waves, the Precipitation rendering the balance unto Caesar and some of the lovely home scenes in which the Disciples, the Beloved Mary and Martha and his own dear mother enjoyed the companionship and friendship of his Presence. 

For mankind this year, the Life of Jesus will be more real and for the chelas and students he will become such a Powerful Living Presence by reason of this Service of the Holy Week that they will be greatly helped thereby, and I only wish that we could have reached the student body in time to bring each member some phase of Jesus’ Victorious Accomplishment that they may present it to their collective groups preparatory to their entering the Heart of the Silence where we do such honor to his name.

Love and Blessings
