To Our Gracious Readers Dedicated to Love's Service the World Around:
As the colorful and blessed Thanksgiving season approaches, the attention of all in our realm as well as in yours turns in joyous expectancy to bringing in the sheaves of a bountiful harvest.
In the springtime when the farmer tills the field and sows the seed, expecting the warm sun and gentle rain to do their perfect work, all is done in the hope of reaping an abundant harvest from that which has been sown.
Not only in your world of form is seed sown and a harvest reaped but also in that of every individualized intelligence in the great cosmos, including those of us of the ascended host who work with unascended mankind. For we are constantly engaged in the preparation of consciousness individually and en masse to receive the seeds (divine ideas) which if accepted, allowed to take root and grow, being nourished by the rhythmic attention and gratitude of the receivers, will bring forth a mighty harvest of practical God-blessings manifesting in the daily lives of all.
Now, as surely as there has always been a springtime, so will there always be a harvest time. These are the natural manifestations of cause and effect. Even so, every cause brings forth after its kind, - producing an effect according to the type and amount of seed which is sown.
Therefore, beloved chelas, look well to the daily sowings of your seed - thoughts, feelings, spoken words, and deeds which go forth from you - for these are the creative processes of your world. The seed that goes forth from you, planted, as it were, may be tiny and, being out of your physical sight, may soon be forgotten (as is the thoughtless, impatient or ungrateful word or gesture). However, as you so well know, everything sent forth, remembered or not, must always return to its sender - and always with accumulated energy after its kind. For like attracts like. That is the Law.
We of the ascended host are quite familiar with the outer mind of mankind, which often tires of the sameness of things and wants something new. At the same time, that outer mind demands sameness in other respects, deriving great comfort therefrom. For instance, does one ever tire of looking upon a great field of waving grain ready for harvest? Does one tire of looking upon the orchards of rosy-cheeked and golden apples in the Northwest or the orange-colored pumpkins in the East and graceful ears of corn in the Midwest? Do mankind not expect the same general form, substance, color and flavor to be present in the same type of food every year?
Some among mankind are truly grateful for these gifts of the Nature kingdom, and others take them very much for granted. All should learn how to express real gratitude for the gifts of God that supply sustenance for their bodies, thus giving them opportunity to express their talents among their fellowmen in service to life.
Now, as we render our spiritual service to mankind, the outer self, or carnal mind, of the chelas sometimes takes exception to our teaching method whereby we regularly repeat certain fundamentals of the Law that they have heard so often. Well, if we do, it is because the chelas have as yet not grasped their full meaning and efficacy; they have not put them into practice as an applied science, "with signs following," nor made them a working part of their worlds.
For the test of this knowledge is not in the hearing but in the doing. The Law requires the development of a certain soul-mastery, a familiarity with its precepts, which become working principles, before the chelas may be given a higher instruction. Thus, when the hearers of the word become the doers, the Law is satisfied and the advanced teachings in alchemy cannot be withheld from the sincere and selfless servant.
You see, the wisdom of the Holy Christ Self determines when the lifestream is ready for more instruction and just what each one should have. On the other hand the outer mind always likes to hear something new and different, - the latest release from our octave, the latest world news, or even the latest local gossip - anything that will attract and hold its flitting attention for a moment and capture the imagination. Certainly mankind or the chelas are not to be chided for this, for here below, variety is the spice of life, providing respite from the treadmill of karmic existence, which binds their time and energy to an uninteresting monotony.
Loving you more than you can as yet understand, we would so enjoy giving you what makes you happy; but when your Holy Christ Self prescribes a certain course of study for you, that is what we must and do give. For we are always lovingly cooperative with and for your Good (God).
Be at peace all ways! Trust our great wisdom, which is God's, and rest in our loving, tender care of and for you. We are quite trustworthy, for we know the way Home, having trod the entire path before you, and victoriously too! We are giving you the spiritual manna day by day, which if accepted and used will adequately fill the exact needs of the moment. Remember, we are even more willing to give you God's good than you are sometimes either ready or willing to receive it. Therefore know that just as soon as you are ready for higher teachings and manifestations of cosmic law, they cannot be withheld from you, even for one second. When the chela is ready the Master does appear! It is the Law.
As you know, great changes are taking place in, through and around the earth. With the multiplication of violet flame decrees of the students the world around, the alchemy of change for the better will continue. As the vibratory rate of the planet itself is now continually being stepped up through your calls, so must there be a corresponding increase of vibration in every cell and atom of the bodies of mankind, the Nature kingdom, and all that is a part of the earth's evolutions at this time.
To bring this about, especially in the physical bodies of mankind, the type of food they eat will have to be changed, being made lighter and containing those vital elements which a refined physical body holding the light of higher octaves will need to harmoniously express here below. This food is already prepared in our octave and it will be lowered into physical manifestation on earth through the Nature kingdom when the need arises. You see, all good manifests in God's good time. Patience is its own reward. In the meantime, the balanced diet based on grains, vegetables and food from the sea that has been known in the Far East for centuries may suffice many a chela on the path of the ascension.
My lovely ones growing firm, straight and tall in the expansion of your own Light's perfection and becoming truly giants in the strength, courage and power of Divine Love, you have reached your present advancements because of your acceptance of our humble help, the harvest of our individual worlds offered to you so freely in God's name.
Your victory is certain as you continue to walk in the Light of your own beloved I AM Presence, for this Light is the Light of God that cannot fail! Just keep on endeavoring to "practice the Presence" every waking hour and leave the showing of the way to us.
Since you have become a part of ourselves on earth and an arm of our Presence, as it were, yet serving among mankind, we know that your patience will hold out for a while until the greatest of mankind's spiritual needs will have been met. Then shall we welcome you Home with such joy-Home, to go out no more.
God bless you now with his will manifesting for you and yours, all ways!
This instruction comes to you through the loving courtesy of the Ascended Masters' Darjeeling, India, Council of God's Will, of which all the ascended host are members.
Note: In the foregoing we are again reminded of the law of the circle: Everything sent forth always returns to its sender, and always with accumulated energy. Would you, then, increase the good that you already have? If so, keep it invested in service to some other part of life, whether that good be energy, talents, money, or whatever you have to give that would bless life. Let your good flow! Set it free! Then as it returns to you it must set you free with a greater increase of itself.
