To Our Gracious Readers Dedicated to Love's Service the World Around - Our Beloved Maha Chohan Speaks:
Our Beloved Maha Chohan Speaks:
"Behold! I make all thing new ..."1 What heart does not thrill to the sound of those words, particularly the hearts of those whose physical bodies have served them long and well through many a period of making things right, which activities are the opportunities offered by embodiment here!
As the years pass and (according to the acceptance of "race consciousness") take their toll of the outer forms of men, how the flame of hope blazes within each breast at the thought of enjoying youth and beauty, vigor and vitality again even though the individual may enjoy such respite from the human only in the realms above between embodiments, until his whole lifestream is set completely free! Truly is newness of life the ever-present hope of the soul.
Beginnings are very fascinating to the outer self and easily draw and hold its attention. While in good things this is commendable in itself, yet the danger here lies in allowing one's attention ever to be held only upon the new beginnings, never carrying anything completely through to victorious accomplishment.
Carefully to investigate and discriminately to choose for one's self the new beginning of that course of study or action which will best help one fulfill his divine plan and that to which he can give the best of himself and his talents is wise indeed. Then patiently and determinedly staying with that project, in season and out of season, when one feels like it as well as when he does not is to make of one's self and world a focus of self-mastery and skill, beauty of production, and perfection of service. All of these not only bring tremendous satisfaction and happiness to the individual but gratitude and blessing from his God and his fellowman.
The beginning of each new day brings fresh energies and enthusiasms (especially in the young) to do one's best, to concentrate and learn much more easily. Of course, this is because the physical energies follow the rising tides of life and Light which start at daybreak and steadily mount until they culminate in a great floodtide of Light at high noon.
Then, too, new things coming into one's world break the monotony of thought and feeling created by the treadmill existence of the human consciousness, which sameness of routine has come about through his forgetfulness of his Source. As you all know, much happiness is often found by the individual who is able to change his scenery, either traveling to some unfamiliar place or by re-ordering and re-decorating his present environment.
Of course, this constant seeking here and there for something new is simply the outer manifestation of the inner longing of the soul for its permanent connection with its own beloved God Self, who in truth constantly makes (and keeps) all things new!
Now, the Holy Christ Self of each lifestream (never far away but anchored within each beating heart and so ever available to assist the outer self {personality}, "without money and without price") is really the Holy Spirit of that one's individualization. It is ever the dispenser of the newness of life to and through the outer form. Its very nature is continually to radiate forth the gifts and graces of each particular lifestream, which constructive activities are always within its keeping and flow forth into outer manifestation at its command.
In our worded expression of love to you today through this Pearl with all our emphasis upon the newness of life, I feel quite sure that our gracious reader both thinks and feels that our urging them to turn often within to the Holy Christ Self is anything but new! However, we find it necessary often to stress this particular phase of the Law to our earnest chelas because for so many ages it has been the habit of mankind to turn away from the within and seek the without quite diligently.
So, beloved ones, I bring to you today the comfort of Truth concerning your own blessed Holy Christ Self. That is the real you. Accept it as such! Then establishing the practice of so doing, experience the gradual but sure and steadily mounting joy in living and the newness of life which will be yours in so doing.
I AM the comfort flame of eternity, ever new!

"My very own beloved Holy Christ Self, living right within my beating heart, in the name of my beloved I AM Presence, I now call you into action here and now.
