Beloved children of the Spirit: 

It is my pleasure to offer for your enjoyment and contemplation more of the details of scenes and events in which you, yourselves, have taken an interested and active part while your bodies slept. 

Man does not realize for the most part that he is spirit by nature and that this indwelling occupant is definitely interested in and attracted to activities that pertain to its own existence. This particularly refers to those who are awakening from the drowse of the senses.... The soul is stirring in its sleep - is beginning to hear the still, small voice of the spirit - and feel the urge that at last it must be "about its Father's business." 

As your outer consciousness is made aware of activities at inner levels through these reports, beloved ones, the vibrations of your outer minds are raised and they become more sensitive and gently receptive to spiritual instruction, activities and events that hitherto seemed beyond the scope of human reason or understanding. 

It is a matter then for great rejoicing on the part of the Celestial Hierarchy that out of the billions of beings steeped in the slough of the senses on this planet, there are a comparatively few individuals willing to brave the ridicule and skepticism of the mass mind to listen to our words of instruction which will lead to their eternal freedom. 

Allow me to commend you on your spiritual courage, beloved ones and to repeat for your encouragement the words of our Beloved Jesus - "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God." 

Love and Blessings,

THE MAHA CHOHAN

(Excerpts from the report of Beloved Morya on the New Year Activities - 1955-1956.) 

Beloved Friends: 

Even to the outer sight of man tonight the Royal Teton presents the appearance of a glorious, natural cathedral, with the blazing light from within playing upon the snow upon its cap. As we stand for a moment contemplating the beauty of this great Mountain Range, let us consider how wonderful Nature is to create those magnificent spires pointing heavenward, to remind even the most mundane among mankind of the Divine Principle behind all manifest life. 

Tonight, the Teton is filled with activity. The Members of the Karmic Board have already taken their places on the magnificent thrones of Chinese jade and emeralds created for their use in love and gratitude by the brothers of this Retreat. Petitions are going up to them continually from Masters, Angels, Devas and Chelas - all eager to present their ideas for the comfort and enlightenment of the evolutions of Earth. 

Around these thrones a vast amphitheatre in circular form has been erected by the Builders of Form, with seven great tiers of seats in the various colors of the rays - blue, gold, pink, white, green, ruby and violet. In them are being seated the individuals among mankind who have been brought in their inner bodies by Angelic Beings. As they enter, the color of the ray to which they belong is clearly distinguishable emanating from their etheric bodies, so that it is an easy matter to direct them to the tier of seats reserved for their use. Now this projection of color is a very significant thing from the inner standpoint, because the etheric body of the mass of mankind is, for the most part, heavy and gray and not at all translucent. Yet, tonight, even the most mundane among them are radiating the colors of their rays, which shows the magnificent purification that is taking place through the inner bodies of the entire human race, set into action by the four Great Beings - (the Directors of the Forces of the Elements) in the Autumn Class and continued by your daily service. 

The Members of the Karmic Board are robed in varying shades of the gentle color pink again this evening; the Beloved Portia wearing a deep rose tint. As Spokesman of the Board she is seated in the center, her throne being raised somewhat above the others. Her magnificent robe is tended with a crystalline substance, the long train sweeping round and arranged in graceful folds in front. Upon her head she wears the seven-pointed crown, adorned in front with a massive pink diamond which is fully two and one-half inches in height, the other six stones adorning the band being smaller. The other Members of the Board wear similar crowns, the only point of differentiation being the size of the central jewel. 

These great Beings now have the great obligation of giving to the Great White Brotherhood, the various Retreats, as well as the mankind of Earth that portion of Life’s energies which, according to their great Wisdom, can be used to help the evolutions of Earth to greater freedom in the year 1956. 

All during this busy evening the various activities and ceremonies attendant upon the termination of the "Old” Year and the beginning of the "New" Year (as described to you by the Beloved Kuthumi and myself) have been taking place and now, beloved ones, how shall I put into words the JOYFUL NEWS that it is my pleasure, privilege and honor to impart to you! 

SANAT KUMARA HAS BEEN RELEASED FROM HIS EXILE OF THE AGES. 

This decision by the Cosmic Law came as a complete surprise to all but a very few of the Celestial Hierarchy and it was my sweet privilege and honor to be invited to present the scroll announcing his cosmic freedom to him as he stood rapt in deep meditation within the Flame upon the altar. After its reception he remained for a long while gazing in profound contemplation at the gift of freedom within his hands, while the expression of joy and gratitude on the faces of the entire multitude, as they were made aware of its contents through my words of presentation, was beautiful to behold. 

The Lord Buddha, who has been preparing himself through long ages for this hour, now advanced slowly toward the Flame, and Sanat Kumara from his position within it, removed the crown from his head and placed it gently on the head of the Lord Gautama, who knelt to receive it with hands reverently crossed upon his breast in an attitude of humility and grace. 

Sanat Kumara then stepped forth from the Flame and standing by the side of Lord Gautama, blessed and thanked the multitude present and all life for his release and expressed the desire to remain in Shamballa as Regent until the expiration of the time set by the Cosmic Law for his stay on Earth a few years age. The Lord Gautama will rule as Lord of the World from this night forth. 

It was a tremendous and surprising climax to a most eventful evening, beloved ones and I am sure that every lifestream in that vast assembly was grateful to God for the privilege of witnessing a cosmic event unparalleled in all evolutional history. 

God bless you, each one,

Morya
