Beloved children:
We will turn our attention this week to Kuthumi's report of the Transmission Flame Ceremonies of December 17th, which we interrupted in order to give you the Thought Form for the New Year and the names of the Spiritual Sponsors, as recorded by our beloved Morya on New Year’s Eve, 1955.
In offering you these detailed descriptions of places and events at inner levels, beloved ones, it is to give you the feeling that the events in which you are taking part spiritually are real and that the Great White Brotherhood, an inner organization of which you have read and heard so much, is made up of intelligent, living Beings who have made the sacrifice of postponing their own spiritual evolution to remain in the atmosphere of Earth ministering to a mankind that is not even interested in an endeavor whereby they might attain their own eternal freedom.
It was at the suggestion of the Beloved Lord Maitreya that several of these God-free Beings in their addresses made you acquainted with certain episodes in their own lives as they walked the pathway of Earth. These pictures, while perhaps not very important in themselves, were intended to show you that these Beings lived and passed through experiences similar to those that many of you may be passing through today and yet raised themselves, through personal endeavor or application, into the Ascended Master state which they now enjoy. This should be a tremendous incentive to individual endeavor on the part of the students, for that which one determined man or woman can do to earn his or her eternal freedom anyone else may do likewise.
As we contemplate the Precipitation Flame, beloved ones, which has been blazing this current month on the great altar of the Royal Teton and into which you have been invited to take your consciousness, I would like to remind you that every outward manifestation of life (and that includes the higher octaves) is an activity of the Precipitating Flame of God, wielded by some expression of Divinity, whether it be Master, Angel, Deva or Man. The God-free Beings in the higher octaves, of course, produce this phenomenon consciously, while in the lower octaves it is done for the most part unconsciously. Even while the body sleeps at night the human consciousness is perpetually weaving the life force into fantastic forms and shapes which it interprets as "dreams" and yet perhaps man would be surprised to learn that he is held responsible by cosmic law for the expenditure of this energy, the valueless nature of which only adds it to the volume of effluvia that makes up the psychic and astral realms in which man abides.
The life energy is never still for a moment, beloved ones it is always vibrating in response to the thoughts and feelings held in the consciousness of the individual who has taken the responsibility of becoming a magnetizing center and radiating dispenser of the God-life. It very often happens that lifestreams become enamored of the pictures thrown upon the screen of Maya either by themselves or others, not being aware that these are frequently emanations rising from the loosening bonds of awakening etheric bodies and have no spiritual value for the progress of the soul. They have rather the opposite effect in that they tend to inflate the ego and stultify the mental and emotional intelligence. Life is like a great river, forever flowing onward; past scenes and past events have been gathered into the womb of time. Try not to draw them forth again and revivify them, beloved ones, as this practice only brings unhappy results in its wake. Consign the past to the care of the Angels of Mercy and go forward joyously to meet the events of the glorious New Day that is ahead.
Love and Blessings,
THE MAHA CHOHAN
(Continuation of Beloved Kuthumi's report of December 17, 1955.)
Beloved Friends:
Let us now turn our attention Westward to the Magnificent Royal Teton Range which many of you have been privileged to see with the physical sight and which has the appearance tonight of a blazing and beautiful cathedral of light, of which our beloved brother Lanto is the great Hierarch.
The Hierarchs of the various Retreats on the Earth's surface, or their Representatives, have been arriving here since December 15th. As they enter they immediately enroll with the brother who is called the Keeper of Scrolls. He is a beautiful Being with gentle face and long golden hair, something like the Master Jesus. He wears a long, white robe, heavily banded on the sleeves with gold. He sits at a magnificent golden desk, furnished at the sides with cylindrical pockets, into which scrolls may be placed. On these various scrolls are written the petitions of the combined brotherhood of a particular Retreat, or they may hold the individual petitions of ascended or unascended Beings. All scrolls are presented to this brother, who scans them carefully. Sometimes he makes a correction or perhaps a deletion before he returns it to the petitioner.
After the scroll has been presented and accepted, the brother then assigns the visiting Hierarchs or their Representatives to the rooms set apart for their use. A white and gold - bulletin board hangs at the side of each door and on this the visitor attaches his petition. As the seven great council chambers fill, the numbers of petitions on the boards increase, each petitioner being eager to get supporters for his project. It is all very interesting and inspiring - the great corridor being crowded with Masters, Angels, Devas and Chelas (the latter in their inner bodies) reading the various petitions, making notes of their contents and deciding which ones will have their support.
You will remember that owing to the increased numbers of people attending-this Retreat, seven additional chambers have been hewn out of the rock. These surround the great central audience chamber, giving the effect of a gigantic lotus flower with outstretched petals. Exquisite, gold curtains hang at the entrance to each room and on each one is depicted an Archangel with his Archaii, in the glorious colors of their Rays. These curtains are divided in the center and when closed they look like beautiful panels. Tonight they are drawn back and have the effect of an angel guarding each side of the wide doorways to the seven council chambers.
Beloved Morya has described for you the beautiful altar with its base of white marble and glittering cross of sparkling yellow diamonds adorning the top. Around the base of the altar tonight the brothers have placed an arrangement of beautiful yellow jonquils, hundreds and hundreds of them.
These flowers only grow in China. They have very short stems and large trumpets. They make a beautiful picture of green and gold.
You will remember having described to you the beautiful friezes that adorn the base of the altar, showing the descent of the Manu and Lord Michael with members of the first, second and third root races. You may recall that there were three vacant spaces left for future delineations. These have been filled in during the year.... One depicts the Angel Gabriel awakening the sleepers in the realm devoted to them. It shows the Archangel with upraised hand in which he holds a trumpet and the sleepers in a seated position on their couches, with heads raised in a listening attitude. The next frieze shows the Archangel Michael standing with upraised sword at the door of the compound and on the faces of the outcoming occupants is a look of almost joyous unbelief. The third one represents the removal of the last discarnates from the Earth, it shows a being seeming to clutch the Earth with one hand, while the other clasps that of the Archangel Zadkiel - all these events are made possible by your calls and I know you are happy to learn that your Harvest has become a permanent part of the oldest Retreat on Earth - the Great Royal Teton.
God bless you.
Kuthumi
