To All Who Would Be Victors in Consciousness Both in Heaven and on Earth,
The white-fire light within the heart is not intended to be the soul's resting place forever and a day. It is a point of bliss to which the soul may return for refreshment and re-creation in a concentrated focus of the sacred fire. It is a place where the soul may tarry - where the mind may contemplate God and the heart may send love to the Creator and the creation. Here is the forcefield where every element of being is recharged for a cosmic purpose - and a cosmic fling!
And so we come now to the exercise for the controlled bursting out of energy, of which I spoke in my last release. You may ask, What is this controlled bursting out of energy? And I will say, It is not a volcanic eruption nor the wild fury of a hurricane nor the sudden movement of an avalanche of ice and snow. Think of this bursting out as the release of Helios and Vesta - of energy from the center of the sun of being which, although it comes forth with a tremendous imploding and exploding of light, reaches the farthest corners of the universe with a gentle beam and a life-giving radiance that signifies the flame of mastery within and without.
And so, as your solar awareness has tarried in the center of the white-fire core of being in meditation upon the law, in giving forth invocations in the name of the Christ and adorations of love for the I AM Presence - all of this energy, concentrated as a kernel of being, as a seed of light, is waiting to burst forth to adorn the cosmos with the fruits of the sacred labor.
Now then, at the conclusion of your exercise in the white-fire core, call in the name of the Christ to the heart of the Father/Mother God to release with God-power, God-control, God-harmony, and God-reality the energies of your meditation into the etheric plane, the mental plane, the emotional plane, and the physical plane. Call in the name of the Christ to the Great Divine Director, beloved Helios and Vesta, beloved God Harmony and Serapis Bey, and beloved mighty Victory to guard this bursting forth of energy and to retain it at first in the outer sphere (the beach ball) which you have coalesced around the heart and the chest cavity.
And so, from the nucleus of the atom, energy bursts forth to the first ring of awareness. And the particles of energy which moved toward the center of your spiral nebula - having been bathed, transmuted, and transformed in the sacred fires of the heart - move in an outward clockwise direction from the heart, once again to fill the four lower bodies with light and light's dimension according to the line of Christly demarcation.
Concentric rings, or forcefields, expand from the heart in ever widening circles. One by one, these circles of light are filled with the energies which you have concentrated by your meditation in the flame - until your being, your consciousness, and your entire aura are filled with a new radiance, a strength, a wisdom, and a will that make you transparent. And your soul, like a gossamer veil, receives the impartations of the Godhead as it resumes its place in its evolution in time and space, penetrating outer consciousness with a new perception and a new poise of self-mastery.
You learn by this experience that energy is yours to command in the name of the Christ, that energy is God's gift to you, that energy comprises not only your form and your four lower bodies but also your consciousness and the forcefield of your world. Each time you withdraw into the inner Self and the inner chamber of the heart - first to purify, and then to concentrate this energy that it might become an acceptable offering unto God - there is a heavenly alchemy, a divine exchange, that occurs. Let me explain.
When you enter into the Holy of Holies of the heart, exalting there the name of God I AM, there is a point in your meditation when this I AM THAT I AM (your own beloved individualized God Self) receives the holy offering of your purified energies as the nucleus of your consciousness. When this occurs, the I AM Presence returns to you another nucleus, another forcefield of energy from on high - a sun molecule of light which is deposited in the forcefield of your heart chakra.
And thus the ritual of the alchemical marriage, whereby man offers himself up to God and God offers himself to man, is reenacted each time you properly complete your beach-ball exercise. The energy which you give unto God is stored in your own causal body as light's treasure in heaven. The energy which God gives to you is a gift of his momentum of concentrated fiery light that comes from the very center of the pulsating, flaming awareness that is the I AM Presence. This, my beloved, is the putting on of the garment of the Lord.
On each successive occasion when you enter into meditation, you will have from your previous session a greater momentum of the Great Central Sun Magnet anchored within your heart for the drawing within of the particles of the four lower bodies. And this focus will in turn regenerate those particles so that your gift to the Almighty will also be a greater nucleus of light. When that offering is made at the conclusion of your exercise, the gift that is returned from the Presence is likewise proportionately greater.
You may visualize this flow - as above, so below - as a beautiful pearl rising from the heart of man, being received in the heart of the Christ, who in turn presents it on behalf of the soul to the Flaming One. Simultaneously, there comes forth from the heart of this I AM Presence the pearl of great price that is delivered into the hand of the Christ Self, who bestows it upon the heart of the supplicant where it is retained by man as a magnet of His all-enfolding love.
Consider now how the pearl which comes down from the Father on high becomes the nucleus in the plane of Mater for the spiraling forth of energies even from the heart of unascended man and unascended woman. This most precious focus is, then, for the creation in this plane of another causal body - one of purity, light, and love that is intended to fill all time and space with the glow of far-off worlds and to magnetize enough light here below so that the individual, the planet, and the solar system might one day return to the plane of Spirit in the ritual of the ascension in the light. And thus, like the oyster, you are creating - layer upon layer - a pearl within your heart that grows and grows and grows as you expand your sun center through proper spiritual exercise. This is how your causal body on high is increased as you magnify the Spirit of the Lord by the Christ flame within your heart.
As the pearls of light are exchanged between God and man, the movement of forcefields of light from the heart of man to the heart of God creates a filigree like unto a bridal veil. And this bridal veil - the symbol of the purity of the virgin consciousness of the soul which knows only God, which gives its energy only to God - begins the weaving of the wedding garment that is the adornment of the soul. This forcefield, or antahkarana, is the necessary grid of consciousness upon which the Elohim and the Cosmic Christ, together with the Christ Self and the soul of each one, build the rising pyramid of Life that is the platform for the ascension.
The parable of the wedding garment,1 then, is clear. No matter how much the Father/Mother God may love a soul, unless the soul is wearing the wedding garment at the conclusion of its opportunity for incarnation, the judgment of the Lawgiver must ring forth: "Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth." Therefore, let all know that "many are called, but few are chosen." Thus the Word of the Lord is pronounced within the souls of all who read this Pearl.
In these days when you are striving to fulfill the purpose of an embodiment and of many embodiments, remember how the merchant who, "when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it."2 So the light that comes down to you in such torrents and with such grace in this hour of the open door is the pearl of great price. The very essence of the sacred fire that forms layer upon layer around the nucleus of your heart - it is the pearl that is not only your gift to God but also a magnet of receptivity, drawing from on high the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
Realize that this light that descends as a shimmering shower is to be used for the infilling of the four lower bodies with the Lord's Spirit and for the filling of the concentric rings of time and space with a conscious awareness of infinity that you can hold (believe it or not!) here and now within the finite realm. Realize that the many who are called are like children who come to splash in the foaming waters of the sea and to build their castles in the sand. These love the light of God and they have dreams of glory and noble ideals. But many of them are content to remain as children - to play with their Father's energy and to bask in the warmth of the summer sun. Yet they refuse to assume the responsibility for that energy and for the disciplining of mind, heart, and soul on the line of the Christ consciousness. Without that discipline, without that determination to garner within the tabernacle of being the light of the Holy Spirit, no permanent progress can be made on the Path.
As I look over the students, I see that there are those who have been entertained by the Pearls of Wisdom and by the dictations of the ascended masters for many a year. And they have thought mistakenly that acquaintance with the Word and with the teachers was somehow equivalent to individual attainment. I would be a betrayer of your best interests and of your victory and your ascension, both here on earth and in heaven, if I did not warn you of the serious consequences of the continual misuse of God's energy.
This is especially of concern to the hierarchy as they consider what the students have done with the great dispensations of light that have come forth in recent classes. For in order to give greater light and to place in hearts afire with disciplined love the energies necessary for the holding of the balance of the age, more among mankind - but especially more of the devotees - must offer the willing sacrifice of undisciplined lives, of scattered emotions and turgid mentalities, upon the altar of transmutation. These unbridled states of the ego must be redeemed for the fullness of the balance of Christ-power, Christ-wisdom, and Christ-love.
And so I say, begin this very day to cease the dissipation of your energies. Determine instead to discipline them along the lines of force outlined by your own Christ mind. And one day, when you are called by the Christ and bidden to the marriage feast, you will come in wearing the wedding garment and you will be received as a candidate for the ascension at the retreat at Luxor. Perhaps then you will remember the communion we shared in these Pearls of Wisdom as we learned a little more about the putting on of the garment of the Lord.
I AM clothed upon this day with the glory of the One. Come ye into the union of the One.
