The Shamballa Letter
VOLUME 13, Number 34 August 23, 1991
Beloved Chelas,
Tonight, each member of the Holy Triumvirate wears a breastplate over their robe, which is woven of a beautiful material, the like of which I have not previously seen. Upon it is the Three-fold Flame, which appears to be woven into the fabric of the breast-plate. The background is an extremely pale, iridescent silver color, and there is a delicate violet radiance around the Flames. The effect is almost alive, because of the quality of the fabric itself.
I feel a deep and abiding sense of Unity, Peace, and Eternal Love, as I look upon these three Beings. These feelings I cannot truly put into words as I experience them, but it is my prayer that you can receive them into your heart-centers in some mystical way, as I share them with you to the best of my ability.
The Masters of Light do often wear a single jewel, or an ornament which signifies either their spiritual service, quality, or - in some cases - their personal electronic pattern. For instance, Saint Germain often wears the Maltese Cross, which is his electronic pattern. Æolus may wear a very simplified form of a Dove, which is the sign of the Presence of the Holy Spirit, and the Maha Chohan Paul may also wear this symbol. Sanat Kumara is always to be seen wearing a simple golden star, which is his electronic pattern. He wears it tonight, resting above the beautiful Three-fold Flame upon his breast-plate.
El Morya usually wears a magnificent star sapphire, which has become associated with his Presence. You know, of course, that the symbol of El Morya's Diamond Heart is often mentioned, and used in many a visualization as a symbol of his Presence. I will say, with the deepest sincerity of my Being, that El Morya is the Diamond Heart of Light We all love and revere.
There is a reason behind the wearing of these symbols, besides that they are objects of beauty, even in their simplicity. They are intended to draw the attention of the chela to the quality which the Master represents, rather than to his or her personal presence or outer appearance. As it draws the attention, it forms a focus through which the Master may then channel the energy of their lifestream into the open consciousness of the person whose attention is thus 'captured' - so to speak. It is true that we are desirous of capturing your attention, and - having done so, we wish to use it to expand the Light!
El Morya and Saint Germain, as I mentioned earlier, informed us that they would be in residence at Shamballa through the Summer Conference, and possibly beyond. Consequently, they have sent messengers to represent them this evening, and they may be recognized by the symbols they wear, because they will be those of the Master. The messengers will be seated where the Master has instructed them to sit. They will also receive Scrolls on behalf of the Master during the ceremony tonight.
Master Morya's representative wears the Diamond Heart upon his robe. His robe is of a vibrant royal blue, and the Heart appears to be formed of a single clear crystal, not large, but perfectly faceted to reflect a great deal of light. The area of the robe upon which it rests is of a light silver-white fabric, shaped to fit perfectly beneath the jewel, so that the clarity of the crystalline heart is not diminished by the deepness of the blue color of the robe. It is beautiful, and one knows immediately whose messenger this is.
Saint Germain's representative wears Royal Purple, with a simple pendant carved from a single piece of amethyst, held in a delicate gold frame, which makes it clearly visible upon the breast of the robe. This jewel, too, is faceted, which intensifies its brilliance. It has the interesting effect of giving forth Rays of Violet Light at the slightest movement of its wearer.
*******
I want to tell you more about messengers, and so I shall, but I prefer to wait and make it the subject of a later discourse. It is a significant subject for each and every one of you.
I would like to tell the chelas who are connected with Shamballa by ties of Light to prepare themselves in consciousness to receive an intensified outpouring of the Flames of Beloved Master El Morya and Master Saint Germain. Their indication was clear to the Karmic Board, and to me, as well. There will be a stepping up of all spiritual activities for - and with - their chelas. Be ready, and remain alert and receptive.
You have heard the term "Practicing the Presence", and you know its meaning. Practice your Presence during the coming week, spending some extra time in meditation, if at all possible. Through the Presence of God 'I AM', ponder the closeness of Beloved Masters El Morya and Saint Germain to your lifestreams, and receive Their Love and outpouring.
Remember, where your attention is, there you are!
John, the Beloved
