     To Our Gracious Readers Dedicated to love's Service the World Around -

     Our Beloved Saint Germain Speaks:

     I hasten to assure all my blessed chelas and disciples - many of whom have loved my service to light for so long - that I am more mindful today than ever before of the need to keep the fires of freedom blazing. When Victory is in sight (it) is not the time to slacken the pace or rest on your oars, for heaven's own blessed acceleration, for which you have so often called by the power of love, does bring ever nearer your own God-freedom, so dear to each heart!

     You know, dear hearts, whenever opposition is directed at any person, place, condition or thing because an expression is manifesting which is negative to the light, the energy used by the directing one, even though benign often, in stirring the conscious mind with the best intentions, almost inevitably raises the human dust of sympathetic attraction for the one opposed. And the director of the opposition, who always intended to be both illuminative and protective, is then face to face with an intensified negative condition. Thus, when we see a need arise to apprise our chelas of a negative situation, both beloved Morya and I hesitate in many cases to do so because of that law. However, when we do perceive a heightened need to speak out, it is always done with Ascended Master gentility so as not to harm any part of life in a stringent manner but rather to produce the best opportunity for freedom and good will to all - particularly that magnificent congregation - the majority of our worthy students of the I AM Law of Life! I heartily approve of every act and word which beloved Morya has found necessary, for I feel no need to remind my readers that every ascended being will only perform those acts which are in keeping with the highest principles of divine law and divine love. This has beloved Morya always fulfilled to the letter and without exception!

     May I also remind that to mankind living in the world of form, the law itself, even the cosmic laws of divine justice which are operative on this planet, may seem at times somewhat harsh. Now, actually there is no callousness present in the divine law itself, but an ever-present divine solicitude, and that which may appear severe is but the returning current of the karmic boomerang of whatever was sent out at some time by the one upon whom the law may be acting.

     There are many things which I could say to each one of you about certain recent events, but the sole and central theme I want to carry to your heart's door is that our beloved Messenger, though still unascended, has been known to beloved Morya and myself for a long time, covering many embodiments. At inner levels he is a master musician, but in depressing the keys to produce the harmonies of our radiant spheres, while he conceivably could strike one wrong key or one wrong note, the central theme, the whole passage, or even one bar of one harmonious thought would never be wrong, otherwise we would not have called upon him in the first place to act as the most perfect instrument possible for the release of our instruction.

     Now, no matter what some unascended beings may think or say, we who know the truth from those inner levels of God-purity tell you only truth as we know it and live in it. Our Messenger would derive no satisfaction whatsoever from acting as an instrument of deceit, for absolute sincerity and purity of motive is in his heart. This we know and every bit of it applies equally with full power to beloved Godfre, and was likewise the sweet and innocent gift of our Lord the Maha Chohan to the beloved Lady Geraldine when she commenced her noble service to life before human tampering and viciousness took their toll and hindered her blessed service.

     We love these messengers of light who, subject to human ridicule and scorn, dare to serve the Ascended Masters, and we will do all in our power to protect them and guard them from the destructive forces leveled at those still unascended. If it does not cease I will myself see that it is returned to its source! Beloved Morya has frankly and freely spoken and so have I, gracious ladies and gentlemen! Now regardless of human opinions we rest our case in arms of light and love and shall proceed toward the victory of Almighty God and the fullest service of light to set free all mankind!

     As you know so well, our desire is ever and always the radiation of only gentle goodness to all our chelas and to all mankind including those erring ones who, having made at least one wrong turn rather than admit to having done so, insist on their own rightness even all the while inwardly feeling the prick of conscience. Rationalization or self-righteousness should be avoided by all, for it is a most subtle shadow of which all on the path should be wary.

     Hence the most cultivated and innate personal honesty is needed to stand guard twenty-four hours a day to do battle with self-deceit! The greatest enemy of freedom, you see, often rises in one's own thinking and feeling world because of past negative momentums, past mistakes of thought and feeling, and also sometimes by reason of unrealized aspirations which, because they are not yet externalized, lead to some feelings of futility and at times feelings of helplessness which seem to form a spiritual vacuum during which time the individual tends to be extremely self-critical and may then vacillate from reason and truth to a mood whereby the onus of self-criticism is transferred to another lifestream in the vain human habit of avoiding the admission of personal failure.

     Dear ones, no one seems to enjoy admitting to failure, but such admission can be a catharsis of the highest type, for failure is never permanent if that one will go on toward overcoming. I failed many times in small ways before my ascension and when embodied as recently as Francis Bacon it was reported that I was always just one jump ahead of my creditors! This does not mean that I approve of any injustice to any part of life for I do not, nor does any ascended being, but imperfection ought not to judge the lot of any other part of life for the simple reason that it is impossible for any human consciousness while still unascended and itself imperfect to know or cognize with absolute certainty the full cosmic law of another's being without our assistance, do you see? Beloved ones, when Ascended Master Godfre (then known as Daddy Ballard) first went out to do the bidding of the ascended host, he was practically penniless and behind in his rent. But did he let that stop him? No, I think not, for he pressed forward to his own victory! This do and live!

     Now, I think the service beloved Victory (the great cosmic being from Venus) rendered last week is very great and incomparable, and I am most grateful for it. In the lives of both rich and poor (a mere relative distinction, for in our eyes you are all rich in God's heart- treasure of the equality of the threefold flame of love, wisdom and power) among our chelas, there are problems which need overcoming, and it is always good to know that your victory is ever at hand. Beloved ones, failure is never permanent unless you let it be so, and even then life acts to set changes into motion so as to place every part of life in a more propitious set of circumstances! This is Love or God in action in you!

     Hope is one of the greatest blessings of God. Now as we hope only for your highest good, may I say with divine fervor that we long for a celestial spirit of divine unity to sweep across the hearts of the students - setting them aflame with our love, our victory and the power of God-freedom! Today when so much emphasis is necessarily placed on unity by the ascended host, as well as by mankind in the outer world who are tired of wars and dissentions - and understandably so, I hasten to say that unity does not divide but ever raises all life it contacts without ever being unkind or critical in its feelings toward any part of life. This requires not only self-control in the accepted sense thereof, but God-Self control with the power of the Presence moving into action in the individual's own world. Those who find necessary the constant tearing down of someone else or something outside of themselves serve not the cause of freedom, for the fires of freedom would burn very low if tended by such as these. Freedom's fires burn only the bands that enslave or bind and then, in the dignity of freedom, lift on high for all to see and behold the exemplary image of a noble man or woman. This lovely transcendent effigy then serves to inspire our dear chelas until, completely free as we are in the glory of victory's ascension, the race is won!

     Until we meet then - sooner perhaps than some of you may even dream possible, or expect, for I am stepping through the veil in various parts of the world even in the present day, in answer to your calls - hold fast my admonishment to adore the light of freedom's love - holding fast to all good, for that in itself is everlasting freedom!

     I am ever and always, your

Saint Germain
(The Dearly Beloved Ascended Master)
