Beloved Children:

During the Transmission Flame Ceremonies at Shamballa recently, we had the rare privilege of hearing from the blessed lips of the Beloved Sanat Kumara himself an invocation to the Supreme Being of All Life, followed by a brief address to the pilgrims on the path, which I offer you now for your spiritual edification and comfort.

It is our endeavor through the repetition of these addresses delivered by the God-Free at inner levels to connect your outer minds, beloved ones, with the scenes and activities you enjoy while functioning in your etheric bodies. We are aware of the fact that it is very often the cause for distress and self-depreciation on the part of many of the students that they do not always bring back the memory of people, places and events they have contacted while the physical body slept, but for your comfort let me inform you that this apparent disconnection in the memory faculty is not necessarily the result of spiritual unworthiness on the part of the individual, but rather is it caused by the density of the psychic and astral substance which forms the atmosphere of Earth. 

As this human effluvia is purified and transmuted into its own natural light element by the Sacred Love of the Sacred Fire magnetized and drawn into the physical atmosphere of Earth by the conscious and persistent calls of the awakened members of the race, the pressure on the mental and emotional bodies of the people will be removed; the veil that now exists between the higher and the lower octaves will be dissolved; communion with the Heavenly Host will be reestablished and angels, men and elementals will walk hand in hand again as they did "in the beginning” fulfilling their individual divine destinies through combined cooperation and harmony. It is to hasten this happy event on the planet Earth, beloved ones that certain members of the Ascended Host have chosen to devote all their time and energies to freeing the God-Life evolving on this erstwhile "dark star".

Love and Blessings,

THE MAHA CHOHAN

INVOCATION BY THE BELOVED SANAT KUMARA 

Beloved, Infinite Presence of God, by whose Life I have Being, I honor thee this night, as I stand within the atmosphere of the planet Earth! 

I honor thee for giving me opportunity of sustaining this planet in our solar system! 

This night, as the harvest of the year's energies are offered in thy name at the Altar of this Holy Temple, I am thy least and most humble servant; for it is thou who hast given me opportunity to use thy Life, thy intelligence and all the Gifts and Powers of thy Being! 

Let not thy children honor me, oh Lord - for I, of myself - am nothing! Without thy Light, thy Intelligence, thy Direction and thy Sustaining Energy, I should be but unformed, elemental substance! 

It is thou - great, Infinite Source of all good - who hast endowed me with self-conscious Intelligence! It is thou, to whom Honor and Glory and Gratitude belong! 

May the mankind of Earth come to know that Service is Opportunity to use thy Great Light in whatever sphere Life has placed them! 

To thee, Oh Great Star Venus, do I send my Love and gratitude for all the energies you have given to sustain my activities during my exile here! 

To you, Oh Beloved and Glorious Powers of Light, I AM so grateful! 

To you, unascended beings, everyone, everywhere, who have taken interest in my service, let me say - I AM SO GRATEFUL! SO GRATEFUL! SO GRATEFUL!

SANAT KUMARA speaks to the Unascended Multitude:  

Beloved Friends: Tonight, it is my opportunity and joy - my privilege and honor - to project into your consciousness the quality of energy which is within my Flame! 

What is Flame? And why does mankind shy from that word? 

Flame is but a concentrate of life energy which has been qualified by some Intelligence to act in a specific manner - a concentrate of energy qualified by the feeling-world of some self-conscious Intelligence to act in a specific manner. As that energy - magnetized, drawn and concentrated - is CHARGED and CHARGED with a specific feeling, it becomes a FLAME which can and will enter into the energies and world of anyone who chooses to use it. 

Now, the quality which I offer tonight to mankind, to elemental life, to imprisoned angels and to the planet itself is PATIENCE - the COSMIC FLAME OF COSMIC PATIENCE. Can you accept it in its fullness? Think it through! 

What is Patience, beloved ones? It is merely control of the energy of the inner and the physical bodies. It is the capacity, when treating any expression of life needing assistance, to hold your energy in perfect harmony and then project it forth according to the direction of your Christ Self for the accomplishment of some good purpose. 

You have been given an assignment on Happiness! Now, in preparation for the Holy Season, I give you an assignment - and that is - to become patient men and women! 

Let me differentiate, for your enlightenment, between the quality of patience and that of lethargy or indifference! The patient man is not the indifferent or the lethargic man. The patient man is positive, poised, and powerful. He does not allow his energy to go from him, either in thought, feeling, gesture or word, until the God-Self has qualified it with its Nature, and then only does it go forth in blessing. 

All over this known world tonight - the waking and the sleeping - those who are aware of our Activities and those who are not, as the Transmission Flame encircles the Earth, will be aware of the patient feeling which it has been my joy to develop; which has sustained me through the ages and which has brought me to this day. May my love and gratitude NOW enfold the beloved Planet Earth and its evolutions. 

Sanat Kumara
