I came to be with you today in the whiteness of the flame which I have consecrated as the petals of a rose - pink and delicate and fragrant, that you might feel the essence of home, that by the fragrance of our love you might be drawn into the greater love of the I AM Presence, that you might be drawn into the center of the flame that is the all-consuming love of the Holy Spirit. I would woo you with love, with the love of God for your soul, with the love of the great Brotherhood for humanity.
I come as a spokesman for the Brotherhood of Light, and I come to call you in the service of that light to be one with our bands of devotees and bands of angels and legions of light from far-off worlds and ascended masters who are very real and very practical and very down-to-earth. How so a heavenly being down-to-earth? We have also willed with Saint Thérèse to spend all of our heaven on earth working the will of God.
We come to earth and we speak simply, directly, unexpectedly. We speak where there is a need, and we are silent that the soul might come to its own and from the beatings of the world regain composure and balance and find surcease from all turmoil in the fire of the Holy Spirit. We know the way of overcoming and we see the dragons that you do not. We see how they breathe down the neck of the devotee, waiting for the moment to pounce - the unexpected moment, the moment of unawareness, of being off guard.
We watch also how tender souls, as shoots of green coming to the fore in springtime, are trodden upon by the carnal mind, by the false teachings. And we come, but we must speak through emissaries; for this is the Word that is not heard in the physical plane. And thus the attunement of souls to the inner planes must occur before our voice is heard directly. Therefore we look to you. We look to our messenger, but one messenger is only one. We look to disciples and devotees to be instruments for the teaching - not for the ex cathedra which we speak from the platform, but for the conveying of that Word, stepping it down as you would prepare food for a babe.
So, disciples of the Brotherhood, speak the word of truth where you are! Quote the quotable quotes of the masters! Let the Word be heard! And where it is heard, I AM there. I AM in the flaming Presence and I AM also breathing in and through you to work a work of the ages. I come with a love that some would scarcely recognize; for where love must contact the rebellious spirits, that love is fierce. It intensifies as a laser beam, as a ruby ray. It intensifies, and its shattering action is not interpreted as love in the plane of consciousness that is in the process of transmutation.
Hear the word of love, then, as stark reality, as living truth! Hear the word of love as initiation! As you come to that place on the nine o'clock line for the stripping of the garments, this is the testing of the fire of the Holy Spirit. When you stand on that line and you desire to ensoul reality, then be willing to have all unreality stripped from you! And do not expect that the Holy Spirit will come gently; for the Spirit knows that the stripping of that unwanted bark must be done swiftly for it to be painless; for it is the prolongation of the initiation which is costly.
The Lord God does not prolong initiation. It is man who by free will elects to postpone that day of salvation, that day of self-elevation. And I say to you: Only you can elevate the self, for only you can surrender! Angels may woo your hearts and the words may gently flow and the teaching is there. All of this is the cradle formed by the carpenter of Nazareth - that carpenter that builds a cradle for the newborn child - the cradle that is the company of the saints, the body of God, the place of worship, the place of service.
All of these parts, all of these components, are for the moment when the Christed one is released of the shroud of the carnal mind by conscious, willing surrender. And unless the surrender be given, all of the ministration of the angels, all of the tending of the fires of a mother's love cannot transform; for this is law. And therefore the rebellious ones - they fold their arms; they refuse to be a part of the flow of hierarchy.
The heart is the open door of hierarchy, and I AM the open door which no man can shut. I open the door for chelas. I open the door for the family who are a part of the inner circle of my band. And every master has a band of disciples, of devotees. So lovingly, so tenderly does the master minister unto his band! The master sends his angels to care for each one as though they were the newborn babe. See how this circle of our love includes many. Even as there are other sheep not of this fold of whom the Lord spoke, so there are those who are tied to you and to me and to our flame of love who will be drawn because you refuse to give way to darkness, but hold that torch of love and keep it burning and keep using that torch to clear the mists from the souls with whom you come in contact.
Let us clear then one another this day! Let our love be for the dissolving of all that is less than perfection, all that keeps out souls of light as that wall which must be torn down as the walls of Jericho. Let the shout ring forth as the priests and priestesses go around that wall the seven times and the seven times seven! Let it be for the release of the fiat of the Word! And let the Word come forth! And let it be the calling of the AUM for souls to come home.
Indeed, as the days are the cycles and the cycles of opportunity, so these are the last days for many. For sons of God and sons of Belial, this is a time when that which has been sown must be reaped. And you query and you question and you wonder why. Why do these things, these plagues of darkness, come upon us when we have the light and the truth of the Christed ones? The answer must be, It is for the testing and the sharpening of the teeth of the devotee and the flexing of the muscles.
If ever there was a circumstance calculated to raise up a soul of light, it is the challenge of the presence of the fallen ones. Let them challenge if they will! Challenge them back! So see how you will instill the light in a planetary body. Let them come; for day by day the self-proclaimed enemies become the teachers - teachers of aikido and spiritual karate as you learn to wield cosmic forces in self-defense, in defense of that Mother flame rising, rising, rising - causing cataclysm here and there until the very worlds of the chelas do shake, wondering, wondering what it is!
It is not all darkness, precious hearts. It is the rising of the flame that will not be stopped, the rising of the fountain of living fire. And as that flame rises from the depth of the Motherland, so the Mother flame within you all rises. And there is a reaction as never has been seen before as the carnal mind retaliates, thrashing and lashing against that Mother flame. For it is frightened; it is frightened in the presence of the white light.
So then, let fear be dissolved! For it has no power. Let death be dissolved! It has no power; for the Christed One, Jesus the Lord, overcame death and fear and doubt and darkness. Let that wetness be dissolved! Let it be consumed in the warmth of the noonday sun that is your own I AM Presence at the zenith of your life. And what can influence or overpower you when the sun shining in his strength is upon you, releasing the light that is able to dissolve all plagues of the consciousness of mortality?
See, then, that you are alert and watchful and on guard! For there are many records on this coast that must be taken into the flame by hearts willing to give the invocation, and these are the records of rebellion and of the fall of Lemuria. And their cycle has come full; and there is a rising on the astral of those energies as the astral plane itself fairly bursts with substance that must go into the flame, else inundate many souls who have light and promise if given opportunity.
I charge you to challenge that forcefield of Antichrist, to challenge every momentum of the rebellious ones in their attempt to put down the rising of the Mother flame within you! It is the rising of the kundalini! It is the fire of your chakras! It is the energy within you! And it is a magnet of the central sun that is the light to draw this Terra, this home, into the ascension.
We have not given up this ship! We have not forsaken Terra - and you have not either. But I tell you, were you to glimpse the cross section of the planes of consciousness of Mater, you would see how that darkness, even in these months of summer, has intensified to challenge the release of light of the Divine Mother, of the ascended masters at our Summit University as the golden light of illumination to all.
Those who keep the flame on the West Coast, the flame of the Holy Spirit: Summon then the hierarchy of light! Be not overcome with evil, but overcome evil with good! So let it be. This day is another day of living, of serving to fight the good fight for the Lord of hosts. So let each day that dawns be for the victory!
I am standing with those who stand in the hour of decision. I stand to reinforce right decision, right action, right defense of the Mother flame! I AM Lanello! I AM as real and more real than I ever was when I was with you! Feel my presence hour by hour! Hear me whistling in the night and hear the strumming of the minstrels across the world - the "Greensleeves." Hear them calling: "Come, come, come to the place, to the land of the sun! Come, come, come to the home of the Mother and the One - the One of light, the One of consciousness, the One - your own I AM Presence. Come, come, come to the home of light!"
Now let our flame be for the consuming of all confusion and chaos, all that would hinder the functioning of the mind of Christ within you. I give you the dispensation of my love to quicken your heart as the open door for humanity and to consume certain energies and substance in your auras that ought not to be, that is there as the coal dust that settles. So let it be consumed now! And feel the newness of our vow, feel the oneness of our love, and know that I am with you.
I champion the cause of light within you! I love you! And I hold you in my arms, each one, that you might know the nearness of heaven, the nearness of the Brotherhood, and feel yourselves not alone, not separated one from the other, but all a part of the one flame of the Spirit of the Great White Brotherhood. I am in your midst! The joy, the laughter, the promise, the holiness, the somberness, and the sternness - all of these we have shared. All of these we shall share again.
So let us be together that indomitable force for world good! Let us be the rolling stone. Let us be that giant snowball coming down the mountain of Morya, releasing the fires, the sacred fires of Darjeeling. Let us be immovable! Let us be an avalanche of light! United we stand: divided we fall. There is no division! I will not acknowledge it; for I AM in you, one and all, and I AM one - Lanello!
I shall come again; and in this hour of your own sun shining, I bid you adieu.
