The Shamballa Letter

Beloved Paul – The Maha Chohan 

How matter-of-factly does the average man accept the various elements that are his being… the components of the Universe? 

Let us consider the Element of Air. In its highest form it is sometimes referred to as “Prana.” Sometimes it is known as the Essence of the Breath of the Holy Spirit. What is the Holy Spirit? Man, prone to form, feels the dispenser to be an individualized being… then he endeavors to understand the Oneness of all Life. How do we then define “Oneness?” Let us again think of the Air Element. Is it the gentle breeze which wafts through the atmosphere causing the leaves to gently flutter on their branches, or a tornado in its dynamic manner, which uproots trees and vegetation, buildings and so on? Do you realize that the superfluous use of words – whether tonal, written, or transference of thought, is mis-use of the Air Element? 

Now we will think of the Fire Element and its various services, the highest form man refers to as the Sacred Fire of the Sun, which gives nourishment to the fruits of the fields and is the source of all Life… Yet, is not the Element of Fire a component of your being, as the warmth of that element flows through your garment from the Flame within your heart (which some call “God”)? If the Flame within your heart expired you would cease to have embodiment on this Earth, of which you are also a part. 

Is the same true of the air? It is the Breath of Life which regularizes your performance as an individualized lifestream. Are you an island? An island in the great Sea of Infinity? Not so. Just feel the Oneness of all Life. 

The Four Elements, as you presently know them, are part of all. We will now place our attention on the Element of Water – sometimes overwhelming waterfalls – sometimes trickling streams and gently falling rain – the very element that comprises the highest portion of your physical body, and the highest portion of your planet Earth, the very essence of your emotional body. 

Why have I presented this short message? For the simple reason that man puts so much attention on material things. Man’s consciousness does take what you call “form” in conjunction with feeling and action. You refer to me as the form of the Representative of the Holy Spirit. All of us in the Heavenly Realms are in a state of consciousness having risen above an individualized Being to whom you give a specific name, who can and does serve in various ways along many avenues of Truth. The chelas are still prone to thinking of us as “form”. That is also true at times, as we can assume form when necessary, but the principle I am endeavoring to anchor more deeply into your consciousness is that we primarily serve as dispensers of Light, assigned or voluntarily, and we accept the position as a channel for some specific phase of Truth to assist our brothers and sisters to raise their consciousness to the level where there is no separation between celestial and terrestrial. Accepting that, you will then begin to understand the Oneness of Life to which we directly focus your attention as it is a specific project of this year – the Unity of All Life in All Kingdoms. Let God, Love and Life in its myriad forms comprise the whole Universe. May all men come to realize the Oneness of All Life. 

As I embrace you in my Love, every part of Life is enfolded to some degree in the Light of the Holy Spirit. 

Paul, the Maha Chohan
