The Shamballa Letter
VOLUME 13, Number 32 August 9, 1991
Beloved Chelas,
Over the years, various Ascended Masters, Cosmic Teachers, and great Beings of Light have fulfilled the honorable task of recording some of the sacred Inner Ceremonies which are held during the year, or for some particular event of great planetary significance. Beloved Master Kuthumi and Master Dwjal Khul have served in this way from time to time. Even the mighty Sanat Kumara, that Great Being whom we all revere so deeply, gave the description of the Ceremony that took place during the transference of the Sacred Focus of Shamballa from the Gobi Desert to Long Island.
That I have been asked to share my impressions of the half-yearly Council of the Karmic Board with the chelas is a great honor, and I sincerely hope that I may do it justice.
I was privileged to be seated in the section to the left of the center, facing the open area in which those who would receive Scrolls from the Spokesperson of the Karmic Board would stand. As you may recall, I described two arcs of seats at the front of the Great Chamber, with an open area between them. The members of the Council sit in the foremost arc, and the Sun Gods and Goddesses or their Representatives sit in the facing arc.
In the section in which I was seated, I had full view of the entrance of the Members of the Karmic Board, and the numerous Ascended Beings and Cosmic Masters who came into the Great Hall before them. Also, of course, I could observe the Ceremony of the Scrolls clearly when it took place. It was my great privilege to be seated beside Beloved Mother Mary.
Mary is an Honorary Member of the Karmic Board, and Alternate Spokesperson, should the need arise. She works closely with Lady Portia, the Goddess of Justice, who is the official Spokesperson. Mary was not acting in any official position upon the Council that night. She had discussed her Petition before the members of the Council earlier in the week, as had the other Masters, Chohans, and Cosmic Beings Who were in attendance.
Also present was Beloved Lord Shri Magra, who always offers his services to intensify the Activity of the Violet Fire during the conclaves. He, also, holds an Honorary position as a Member of the Karmic Board, and may be called upon to fill in, if that need should arise. As in any outer-world business, an individual might be unable to be present, due to some pressing situation. At those times, either Mother Mary or Lord Shri Magra may be called upon to fill in. Also, under certain circumstances, a special meeting could be called. These are possibilities for which allowances are made.
I will take a moment to remind all of you to call on Lord Shri Magra for a great intensification of the Violet Fire Activity, especially within the etheric realms of the Earth. This service, as I have previously stated, is of the utmost importance, not only for the Earth, but to preserve the Sanctity of the Retreats of the Masters, as well. You, too, may do your part to assist in this work.
During the coming week, I ask that you contemplate the service of these Great Beings, who give continually of their gifts to assist the work of the Karmic Board and the Spiritual Hierarchy, in behalf of all life on the Planet Earth. I will resume in my next letter. Know that you are enfolded in my Love and Gratitude for your service.
John, the Beloved
