Chief of the Darjeeling Council of the Great White Brotherhood
Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand.
Belshazzar, whiles he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels which his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem; that the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, might drink therein.
Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which was at Jerusalem; and the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, drank in them.
They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
In the same hour came forth fingers of a man's hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaister of the wall of the king's palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.
Then the king's countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, so that the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees smote one against another.
The king cried aloud to bring in the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. And the king spake, and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whosoever shall read this writing, and shew me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with scarlet, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.
Then was Daniel brought in before the king. And the king said to Daniel. I have even heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods is in thee, and that light and understanding and excellent wisdom is found in thee.
And now the wise men, the astrologers, have been brought in before me, that they should read this writing, and make known unto me the interpretation thereof: but they could not show the interpretaion of the thing.
Then Daniel answered and said, Let thy gifts be to thyself, and give thy rewards to another; yet I will read the writing unto the king, and make known unto him the interpretaion.
Thou, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thine heart but hast lifted up thyself against the LORD of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified:
Then was the part of the hand sent from him. And this is the writing that was written: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN. This is the interpretaion of the thing:
MENE; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it.
TEKEL; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.
PERES; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.
Then commanded Belshazzar, and they clothed Daniel with scarlet, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and made a proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.
In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain. And Darius the Median took the kingdom ...
I come from the Temple of the Sun with a message of victory for the people of America and the people of the world. I come as the spokesman for the Lords of Karma. I come in the feminine ray of Truth to exalt that Truth of the feminine ray within you. I come to speak of karma as the law of cause and effect, and of karma as the destiny not only of America, but of every nation upon earth.
You have heard of individual influence within the self and within the family and within the community at large. I say that the influence which the individual can exercise and which the individual nation can exert rests squarely on the proposition of karma.
Where you are in consciousness rests upon karma. Many among you have very good karma. Karma then becomes your opportunity to fulfill your divine plan. And none of you are without those negative aspects of karma that have brought your souls into incarnation on Terra [the name given to planet earth] once again to try again to fulfill the law of an inner destiny which God has willed and which you have affirmed.
I AM the Goddess of Liberty. I have stood before each and every one of you as you have passed before the Lords of Karma prior to taking incarnation in this life. Now I am activating the memory in your soul of this experience of speaking with me.
Look into the face with your inner eye - my own face and that face focused in the Statue of Liberty. Recall now this gaze of the one who represented the Divine Mother to you. Recall the admonishment of your soul and your vow made to me in person to go forth, to carry that torch of Liberty and to give rebirth to the Christ flame and the Christ consciousness.
You are here in America - some by birth and some by the destiny of your karma. You find yourself in this place in time and space because I made a commitment to you in the hour of your birth that you would come to know the teachings of the Ascended Masters, that you would meet those lifestreams who could impart to you the knowledge of the Law and the knowledge of your vow to serve the Great Law. I promised you that you would meet my representative of the Mother flame.
Why did I make this promise? Because each and every one of you who is seated here tonight expressed the concern to me, as the representative of the Mother flame, that you would forget the knowledge of the sacred fire, the law of your karma and your promise to keep the flame of Life; and you implored me to promise you that you would have the opportunity to know the Law.
Therefore, I have fulfilled this night my vow to many of you, and you are here. And so I also expect, as you expected of me, that you will fulfill your inner vow to the Lords of Karma and to Saint Germain to make a more than ordinary effort in this life to balance your karma and to make yourself available for the fulfillment of America's destiny, to take the flame of the Mother and the Christed ones and to expand that flame into the world dominion of the Christ consciousness.
Well, we have come into a time, into an age, when it is imperative that those who have made their vows to keep the flame do so. Therefore I proclaim again! Liberty proclaims within you the law of your inner being and the understanding that now is the time and the space for the Light of your own God Presence to shine within you. Now is the time to forsake the careless expense and waste of God's energies which are the natural resources of the Spirit - the energy that flows ceaselessly.
Now is the time to realize that your Christ Self is able to reverse the tide of darkness on Terra - that in that flame is the power, the wisdom of God to become the allness of God in manifestation. Now is the time to prove the law of the avatars. Now is the time to make yourself a part of the mainstream of the karmic destiny of America, for her destiny is to be the place where the Woman clothed with the Sun and with a crown of twelve stars rises to deliver the mandate of the Christ consciousness and to give birth to that Christ Child.1 This is the Mother within you.
I have with me, then, the assurance from Portia of opportunity sealed and the dispensation of our board [The Karmic Board] to give opportunity to this group of devotees for a more than ordinary release of the fires of the Mother within you that your souls might be nourished by the Mother's love. For you yourselves have earned this dispensation; you have given service to that Mother flame.
Sometime, somewhere, your devotion and your service has been sealed. And so we capitalize on good karma this night to allow us to enter into the forcefield of your worlds, to unlock the fires of the Mother and to seal the raising of those fires for a manifestation of the God consciousness within you - a sealing of the Light of the heart, that you might understand and become the Christ.
It is America's destiny to reveal the culture of the Mother to the world. And the hierarchies of Aries and Libra, fulfilling the Light of the heart chakra, come to the aid of those who have heard the call and felt the flame throughout Terra, throughout the four planes of Mater. The hierarchies of the Sun come forth and their proclamation is this: that it is by the fires of the Holy Spirit and the all-consuming energy of your own I AM Presence that you will bring into manifestation the fulfillment of this fiery destiny.
Now, therefore, receive the assignment of the Lords of Karma, that assignment being to surrender a portion of misqualified energy into the flame that it might be transmuted, that you might have returned to you God's energy purified to work the works of God on earth.
The assignment from the Lords of Karma is to give the mantras and the invocations to the violet flame for the freeing of this nation, for the reestablishment of spirals of victory to move forward during this period of the Dark Cycle and to establish the initiation of another one-hundred-year cycle [from the date of the Bicentennial - July 4, 1976] wherein the initiations of Maitreya can be given, wherein the Teachings of the Mother can be proclaimed and the Mother's children can come into the fountain of living flame and have their chakras nourished, their souls and hearts and minds nourished by the fires of living Love, of immortal Truth.
The flame of the Mother burns and expands. The heart of the Divine Mother calls the children of the One into the AUM, and that calling to the Home is the calling of consciousness back to the awareness of Reality.
It is the karmic destiny of America to experiment in God-government, to experiment with the divine documents of Liberty. It is the destiny of America to establish golden-age education. And in the education that is the unfoldment of the heart chakra, it is the destiny for the little children to rise up with that God-dominion and that mastery of the quadrants of Mater whereby they can teach to all nations the way of overcoming on the path of initiation under the Christ and the Buddha and the inner law written in the inward parts.2
So it is the destiny of America to fulfill the culture of the Divine Mother as Science - a science that, when applied, liberates souls from drudgery and the toiling that became the karma of those who were expelled from the God consciousness of Eden. And this is the technology of the Divine Mother. It must not be misused or abused. It must become, with Religion, the pillar in the temple of being, so that by the binding of the individual to God as Father in Spirit through Religion and the binding of the individual to Mother in Mater through Science, the aspects twofold of Spirit and Matter may be fulfilled within the individual.
The culture of the Mother is not to be despised. The championing of the individual God flame ought not to be misused through those who take advantage by greed of the system of capitalism and free enterprise. These are to be bound by the action of the sacred fire of the Lords of Karma; for those who misuse the Spirit of the individuality of the God flame are perverting the flow of abundance, the flow of the supply of God, into the hands of the children of God.
Let this nation, then, be restored to the divine economy and the divine principles of God-government. Let the essence of these principles be drawn from the Source, the one Source of the I AM THAT I AM, the true Lawgiver of each individual God flame. Let there be a restoration, a regeneration, a rejuvenation and a resurrection of Life in the four lower bodies of those who have chosen to be a free people! And let this choosing be transferred to every nation. Let the example be set and let it be transferred!
I speak to all who love freedom in every nation on earth: Fulfill the Light of your karmic destiny! Work to give forth the culture of the Mother in your nation! Whether it be Mother Russia or Mother India or Mother China or Mother America, let it be that the souls of the children of the one Flame respond to the call of the Mother in their own tongue, in their own culture.
And let their cultures be purified by the flow of the flaming ones - sons and daughters of God ascended, Cosmic Beings who gather on Terra at the portals of consciousness to accelerate God consciousness, to exalt those who would be exalted in the God flame, to bring to pass the saying that is written, "Death is swallowed up in victory."3
So let that culture of death (which is not a culture) be swallowed up in the victory of Life, and let Life flow from the heart of the Mother to her children. Let the Life that is God be the fulfillment of the fiery destiny of the individual unto the nation, unto the planet, unto souls and evolutions who must come forth to fulfill their divine plan on earth.
And this brings me to the question of population control. I am very concerned with the control of the incarnation of lifewaves on Terra, for we who are the Lords of Karma plan the incarnation of souls who will contribute to the overall pattern of perfectionment on earth. We are the ones who pass on souls who apply for incarnation.
Out of every one who applies, there are two who remain, who must be denied entrée into the portals of birth. Out of everyone whose incarnation is granted, there are percentages who never reach incarnation because of the current trends toward birth control through the abortion of Life.
And then there is that planning by those who advocate zero population growth, and there is the indoctrination in the mass consciousness against giving birth to children in this age. And therefore, those very precious and important lifestreams whom we have assigned to Terra are denied entrance into Terra by the free will of mothers and fathers who have taken the vow at inner levels to give birth to souls but in their outer minds have accepted the brainwashing of the mass consciousness.
I am a mother conscious of the Mother flame in cosmic dimensions and I am very conscious of the gaps in the evolutionary chain of hierarchy now occurring on Terra. I am concerned with coming decades and the absence of those lifestreams who have been denied opportunity to live, to move, to breathe, to overcome, to attain God-mastery on Terra.
What will you do in twenty-five years when the scientists and the great avatars and those who espouse mankind's freedom, those who are returning to liberate the masses, are not there because you have denied them Life?
What will you do when the ages turn, when there are wars and rumors of wars and pestilence and plague and cataclysm taking the life of many, when the dearth of population comes and there is not the replacement for those souls whose karma will take them from the screen of life?
What will you do, O mankind who have made yourselves prey - fodder - for the manipulators? You have believed the lie; and as it is written, "your condemnation is just,"4 because you will have made your own karma. As you say, you make your bed and you lie in it.
This is the story of karma; karma is the exercise of free will. I ask you now, have you exercised free will or have you been manipulated?
You do not exercise free will until you know both sides of the story. Did you know this side of the story before I spoke to you? Did you know that there are thousands of Christed ones awaiting incarnation? You have been told of their courage. You have heard that they come, they are aborted, and they volunteer again, knowing that they may pass through that trauma of dying in their mother's wombs. Yet they volunteer again because they are determined to set life free!
They are far more determined to liberate the masses than many among embodied mankind. For they see above and beyond the manipulation of the death cult, and therefore they see your souls crying out, pleading with the Lords of Karma for help, for intercession. They behold the prayers of children, they behold the praying of babies in their mother's wombs praying for life, praying they will come to maturation to be born in Mater - souls waiting to incarnate who are mature, advanced lifestreams not only from Terra but from other planetary bodies and even volunteers from other systems of worlds.
They have knocked on the doors of the Lords of Karma in our chambers in the Royal Teton Retreat. They have pleaded for opportunity. We have shown them what they will be up against and yet they have said: "We will go, we will try! We will work with mothers and fathers, we will find our place. We will find room in the inn on Terra." And so they come and they continue to come.
Now see what the question of abortion brings as karma to the feet of a nation! See what war brings as karma to the feet of a nation! Understand that those who kill with the sword must be killed by the sword.5 Whether the sword is on the battlefield or in the surgeon's hand, the taking of life bears the consequence. And these consequences place a heavy karma on the people of America, whose destiny it is to bring forth the Christ consciousness not only in the little children, but through the sacred fires of the heart.
As the Spirit of Christmas covers the land with the light of the I AM Presence, that Spirit of the Christ Mass also comes knocking at the door of your heart, asking that you might pray for the little ones that they might be born in this auspicious year of 1976, that they might come as the crown of rejoicing of the Goddess of Liberty in celebration of Freedom and of Life - and of living and of the giving of self.
I tell you, precious ones, there is no greater fulfillment in all of cosmos than the fulfillment of creation - a holy maternity, a holy paternity, father and mother standing as representatives of the Father/Mother God giving birth to the Christ Child. Unless the fulfillment of creation be manifest within you, whether by giving birth to a child or by giving birth to the Christ light in yourselves and other lifestreams, you will not know the fulfillment of cycles.
Do you understand that the manipulators of the souls of humanity would take from them the fulfillment of the cycles of creation - would abort those cycles? Is it any wonder that we have a sick society and sick people for the very reason that they are not allowed to create in the image and likeness of God, but are told to create the ugly and the sordid and the astral and the psychic and the discordant sounds and art forms? And thus deep within the psyche, deep within the souls of mankind, there is a longing to be free to create as God creates.
O the wonder of creation! The wonder of watching before your very eyes a friend, a member of your family being transformed in the image of the living God because you have allowed yourself to be the instrument of that Flame! O the wonder of wonders to see the newborn child and the rebirth in the Spirit! You can be instruments for the magnetization of the God flame. You can be instruments for the salvation of a planet and a people.
I speak it now and I will speak it again and again, for I AM delivering into your total consciousness, being and world the promise of Life and of Victory through the fulfillment of your vows. I stand before you fearless in the face of the carnal mind and the mass manipulations of the carnal mind! For I know that one word spoken now in your own heart as a prayer to God to transmute that influence - to commit it to the flame - will be answered instantaneously by the edict of the Lords of Karma.
I therefore give you an opportunity, a moment of silence, to make your prayer to Almighty God, for in this cosmic moment there is opportunity of legions of angels who come to intercede and to bring to your hearts that which you invoke in the light of freedom. [27-second pause]
The Lord Christ has said, "Ask and ye shall receive, knock and it shall be opened unto you."6 Each and every prayer uttered in the heart is adjusted now by the wisdom of your Christ Self and by the action of the will of God. And therefore, any who ask amiss will find their calls adjusted in the Christ consciousness and the answer to the call will be forthcoming.
Some of you have asked for a world and some of you have asked for the individual. Know this, Children of the Sun: that God is not limited, that the infinite consciousness of God can fulfill your prayer, for the one or for the billions of souls, with equal flow and equanimity, with equal action of the fire of freedom. Therefore I say, whatever call you have made for an individual, according to the will of God and in keeping with that will, it shall be multiplied for every lifestream on Terra.
This is my promise and the fulfillment of that promise, that you might understand each and every day of your life that that which you call forth for all mankind will be fulfilled for all mankind. We refer to this as the maximizing of your calls.
Do not limit your calls then! But realize that if you pray for one who is sick, there are millions who are sick and millions more who know not that they are sick who require healing in the mind and in the emotions and in the subconscious.
Therefore, let the multiplication of the loaves and the fishes by your own Christ Self be for the feeding of the multitudes through your invocations and decrees. And do not fail to include in your decrees, "This which I call forth for myself and my family, I call forth for all sons and daughters of God and for all evolutions of Terra on every plane of consciousness."
So then, watch how the Divine Mother will answer your calls made in the name of the living Christ. Understand the truth that the call does compel the answer!
And let me, if you will by your free will, release now into your forcefield the flame of Faith, the flame of Hope, and the flame of Charity amplified by the angels of Liberty who come now to maximize in the field of your consciousness your faith in the law of God, your faith in the science of the spoken Word and the science of the aura,7 your faith in the Teachings of the Ascended Masters, your hope in your own Christ Self for salvation, and the charity which is the flow of the flame giving and receiving and being the outpouring and the inflowing, the unfolding and the infolding, of the sacred fires of love descending from the Most High God.
O America, fulfill your destiny and free mankind to fulfill their destiny! Stop the slaughter of the holy innocents and give birth to the Christ children who come knocking at the doors of America - because this is the place where destiny must be forged and won. Must we send them, then, to other nations - to China, to Russia, to India, to those places where there is not the control of life - or will you give them room?
I place this question before America this night and I demand that you give answer! Either you make room for the avatars and the Christed ones or the torch will be passed and other nations who will prepare them room, who will make way for the coming of the Christ, will receive this dispensation of the avatars.
I AM knocking at the door of America this night! I demand answer and I ask for the prayers of the Keepers of the Flame for the American people, for their enlightenment, for their awakening in this age.
When you deny the Mother flame, you deny the Christ Child. When you deny the Christ Child, you deny your own salvation. For salvation is through each and every one of these little ones who come to be admitted to raise up a golden-age civilization which can yet be born in this nation and throughout the nations of the world.
Now let the Keepers of the Flame be solemn in their consideration. You play the role of mediator: You stand in the place of the Christ consciousness for and on behalf of every member of your nation and your community and your family. You have a supreme responsibility to amplify that Christ flame, and I know of no better way than in the exercise of the science of the spoken Word.
You have a responsibility to see to it that the knowledge of this karma and also of this teaching is spread abroad throughout the land. You have heard the admonishment not to hide your Light under a bushel8 - that bushel of neglect! You cannot sit home on your haunches and there give your decrees and deprive mankind of the knowledge of the Law.
You must go out into the highways and byways and become teachers of mankind. You must rescue the little children who are born, who come into the schools and who are programmed away from their immortal destiny. You must take up the cause! You must enter the fray! You must fight the good fight for the Goddess of Liberty.
Remember, I have kept my promise to you this night: I have put you in contact with the Teachings. Now I say, will you say no to the Divine Mother? Will you say, "I have forgotten my vow"? Or will you stand up tall, take your responsibility seriously and your word that you gave?
Do you not remember that "By thy words thou shalt be justified and by thy words thou shalt be condemned"?9 So it is written; so it is the law of the judgment.
I remind you that ere a century has passed, all of you will stand before me once again and you will have in your hands to present to the Lords of Karma the harvest of good work or a crop that has failed. And you will stand alone to give testimony to the Lords of Karma. You will make your report as to the use you have made of this life and this quotient of energy.
And then, if you have not succeeded in earning your ascension, you will be there knocking on the portals of birth. And then you will be faced with that dilemma of a programming of a civilization against the birth of the Christed ones and you will face the karma of your neglect, of your failure to inform the nations of this karma of denying life.
So then, the cycles turn quickly. Many are called but few are chosen,10 and those who choose to be the elect of God are those who win.
I am counting on you, Keepers of the Flame, to be winners in this life! And I back you with the full momentum of my lifestream if you will choose to win for Light, for Freedom.
I thank you, ladies and gentlemen, and I bid you good evening.
This dictation by the Goddess of Liberty was delivered through the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood Elizabeth Clare Prophet on Saturday, November 22, 1975, during the weekend seminar The Greater Way of Freedom held in Washington, D.C.
Awake, all ye who sleep, to the consummate reality of the infinite, enfolding love of God! Awake, ye who are born of the flame of Liberty! Awake, ye who are born of the flame of God!
As we survey the great land of America and envision in our heart from inner levels the mighty achievements, almost supreme in majesty, wrought by God and the Masters of Wisdom for and on behalf of this land, our hearts rejoice in the possibility of fruition; and we see, side by side with the cup of peril and trembling, the cup of fruition and victory.
We see the beauteous possibilities spread abroad from shore to shore to be an example to the world of that which overcometh greed, egoism, shadow and all that is less than the full perfection of God. Our hearts lift up and exalt hope to the world through America and through all lands who will accept the selfsame fiat of almighty Light which God has given to this land as a destiny to be fulfilled.
America was chosen to be the example to the world in order that all nations might drink of the cup of freedom and liberty and cherish these gifts of spiritual longing fulfilled far more so than the ephemeral mists of the treasures of the world which appear for a moment and then are gone.
For there cometh to the earth seed-time and the time of cultivation. There cometh also the time of harvest and the time of fulfillment thereof; and the cycles of life spell out to waiting hearts the God-command: "Be thou free in thy season!"
And therefore, ye who wait and watch, longing for America to be delivered from the pains of this age, know that the power of Light has already, before you have asked, prepared an ark of salvation in a spiritual refuge, in a spiritual concept, in a spiritual precept, so that mankind need not fear; for the LORD God himself has determined to give to all who ask in faith the fullness of the best gifts.
These gifts are waiting, and I say to all of you who are here present, Be still, O mortal mind, and know that I AM God. Know that the I AM Presence within you is God, the Deliverer, the Saviour, the Eternal One, the Preceptor who is nigh unto all those who fear him and call upon him.
Yet mankind have not understood, for they say, "We do not understand that fear is the beginning of wisdom."11 Let them understand the Law as it has returned full cycle unto this nation, for this nation has itself sown the wind - having cast aside the beauteous strands of Liberty forged in the early days at Valley Forge and in the hearts of the early patriots - and thus shall it reap the whirlwind.12
Indeed, it can truly be said that today only the few are stirred by the ideas of divine freedom for this land. And the multitudes rush hither and thither seeking that they may entertain themselves in the pursuit of ephemeral pleasures.
Know, then, O mankind, that in the midst of the darkness of man's self-imposed infamy there is a deliverance at hand, and this deliverance is in the hands of the living Christ and the Spirit of Liberty. The Spirit of Liberty is the Spirit of God and it is the Spirit of the Father never betrayed by Jesus but always exalted into the great high places of consciousness - the places of elevation where men can understand and know that God in them is God in the world and is God everywhere.
The realities of men's lives are so fragile, precious ones, and yet they hold them as though they would never lose them, or as though they would never or could never be broken. Let them understand that the only basic security to anyone is the security of the immortal treasures of life that are within the soul of man. Let them understand that all the glory of the world shall pass away but he that overcometh that outer glory shall remain forever and forever as a pillar in the house of God.
I am this day upholding as a pillar in the house of God the principle of cosmic Liberty - Liberty that wafts upon every breeze, Liberty that exalts the free and the brave who can face life unafraid and know that God is true when every man is a liar13 in his mortal concepts and his acceptance of the terrors of human viciousness.
There is indeed a spirit of false liberty that is adrift in the land today. The youth of the world are the victims of this falsehood but they are also the victimizers, bringing to others, young and old alike, great distress of being and fear and trembling. And they ask themselves what is coming upon the earth when they see the destructive state of consciousness that the youth are manifesting.
Again I say, in America men "have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind," for the past decades have seen increasing decadence and lack of spiritual affinity. Men have sought to commercialize religious activity. And they have also sought to hold the youth of the world in bondage to a brittle creed: they have fed them straw when they have cried out for bread.
Let me say again, then, they have sown the wind and they shall reap the whirlwind! Yet "Whither goest thou?" is the cry upon the lips of the mothers and fathers of America, and I refer here to those responsible ones who can well ask themselves the question, "Where are they going?"
Precious ones, the love of the Father is one thing and the love of the world is another. The love of the Father is infinite grace that is poured out in torrents upon the youth of all nations.
You have a saying, gracious ones, that goes like this, "water off a duck's back." Let me tell you that they have become so surfeited in mortal doings that they do not even feel the radiation and love of God. They absorb it in an unthinking and an unfeeling state of consciousness, and the conditions are indeed deplorable when viewed from the level of mortality.
We see through the span of the Spirit a new age, a coming age of greater hope. We see that each generation that fails to accept the torch will of necessity, by the demands of Nature, pass on some form of life to succeeding generations. We see the great tides of the Spirit going to the Lords of Life and Death and speaking unto them as each candidate for reembodiment comes to the gateway of birth and saying unto them:
"MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN: Thou art weighed in the balances and art found wanting,14 O unworthy one. Go thou back and wait thy turn; for when Life was given thee before, thou wouldst not heed the call of God, but thou wasted thy substance and cast it upon the ground."
Therefore, let the most worthy ones be selected from the vast multitudes awaiting reembodiment upon this planet and from the virtuous, from the blessed, and from those who seek to finish their course with joy and dignity. Let souls come forth and let the mighty ones of old walk the earth, the sons of God who have rejoicing in their hearts; and let the rest go back into the Darkness they have created and loved and let them remain there until perchance the gateway to birth shall once again be opened to them in some distant time.
Let the Lords of Karma take heed this day to our plea for the withholding from the earth of a further onslaught of the hordes of Darkness and of the shadows from ancient times. Let those lifestreams now be stayed! We command it in God's name. And we say, let the virtuous come forth and let the sons of God, whose faces shine like the sun, come forth! And let Virtue have her manifest reward!
It has been said, "My Spirit shall not always strive with man for that he also is flesh."15 Hear, then, this word as a fiat of Light is entered upon the great records of akasha.
I AM the Goddess of Liberty. I have commanded by divine decree this day that the power of virtue must stand and shine forth. And if those to whom the torch of Life has been passed choose to deny that torch, shall not the torch of Life deny them? For is it not written, "Whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven"?16
The Children of the Sun shall inherit the earth; the meek shall inherit the earth. When the chastity of meekness and love for God is accepted by the people in full faith that He is God of the very earth and that His love is supreme and that His beauty is transcendent light streaming forth from the portals of Infinity, these shall have accepted that God is the God of very gods.17
They shall not be ashamed in this day or in any age to call him Father, for they are of the Christ-dimension. These are the sons of the Spirit; these are the sons of Liberty. For in a new generation they shall stand to bring about a spiritual revolution that shall sweep the earth free from those children of riot who seek pleasure and all that is without when the kingdoms of the Spirit contain the treasures of Infinity as all that is within.
This is that to which they are already heir and they have denied it. This is the treasure of eternity which they have denied. They have chosen instead to plight their troth to that which is but the voice of the bride and the bridegroom heard in the city - the voice of the bride and the bridegroom who hasten to the nuptial vows to bring forth children of darkness and shame, whereas the land ought to be peopled with those who love Liberty and Righteousness and who exalt God in the family of nations.
This is the age intended to be golden in radiant wisdom from on high, and men have perverted that golden wisdom to their own purposes. They not only bring forth bread, but they also bring forth bread without substance and body. They bring forth outer things and science and invention, but they deny the power of true science and true invention which are designed to be used in harmony with God and to employ natural law, in order that Life might be fulfilled of herself and that destiny might exalt the righteousness of God in each individual life so that each one will be a manifestation of Liberty in action here below.
You have heard, mothers of the world, of a cradle song. You have heard, mothers of the world, of the pull of the infant child upon the aura of the mother. You have heard the great compelling cry of that which is being delivered into the world.
Know that as the Goddess of Liberty, I am aware of the murmurings of every heart and I do indeed hear today the murmurings of people throughout the planetary body in complaint against the Deity and the circumstances in which they find themselves. I find a record made clear that there are many who speak out and some multitude, vast indeed, who speak out from within against life as they do find it.
But I ask you and I ask them, What has been done by you to enhance it? What have you done with the inheritance that you have received? How have you contributed to the welfare of the world? What landmark that shall stand beyond your temporal span have you erected in the hearts of men? What virtue have you externalized and cast as example before them?
You have heard it said that coming events cast their shadows before them. Precious ones, do you know what it means to cast the radiance of the Light before men, to set yourself upon a hill as a radiant tower of Light that cannot be hid?18
You are a beacon of hope, then, to other hearts. And I tell you, ladies and gentlemen, the world has need of such love and example. To love and be an example is to forget the shadow of yourself, and in your forgetting a new star is seen as the old star is setting - a new star of hope, the adventure of your cosmic self projected upon the great span and pages of the future.
This star transcends the old, and it is the star of His Presence that of Bethlehem in days of old did appear. Over that land the star came forth and the angels sang, "Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, good will unto men."
Has the song been stilled today, gracious ones? Has the song been stilled in the hearts of men? Not in all hearts, God be thanked, for there are yet recipient hearts that await eagerly our every word, who seek to assist us in helping mankind to throw off the thralldom of the senses and the terrors and pestilence that stalk - the results of their own wrong sowings.
We who survey countless records, we to whom application is made again and again for mercy, we19 are in a position of trust to know exactly what the thoughts of men are. And we see again and again that individuals will say, "Oh, if you will only give me your mercy now, I assure you that I will never again become involved in anything that is not the full perfection of my being."
Beloved ones, we are not cynical nor are we skeptical, but the record clearly shows that again and again when the great debt of mercy is sent forth and the unguents are applied to mankind, it is as though they had never passed through the crucible of sorry experience. For, once again, they are a part of the mass consciousness and they seek to exalt all human qualities and to live as mortals do without understanding that the pathway of Life that is for the many is now embraced but by the few.
What will we do about it? Gracious ones, almost every week we are expressing in some way or another the bounties of heaven. We are spreading the Lord's table before you and saying, "Take, eat; this is my body which is broken for you."20
And yet, I tell you, and it is a sad reflection upon mankind, that there are some who have even walked among you and some who have received our words through the printed media who have basked in attitudes of doubt as to the authenticity of our releases. They do not know, they do not understand, nor do they seem to care to understand that all that we do is for the freeing of men and for the changing of these conditions and for the bringing of men and women into the great temples of freedom to teach them the law of Liberty in order that they may go free from the cage and prison of mortal experience and sense consciousness.
Why, then, do they continue to seek in the outer for that which is within? Is it because it is invisible to them? Is it because they do not see the treasures of heaven that are ready to be heaped upon them? What is the reason? They do not know.
We know. We know that the reason is the power of binding and blinding habit, and we know that it is bad example, a living in the old consciousness of flesh and blood that cannot inherit the kingdom of God.21
But the way is made plain, the way is clear, the way is one of hope, and darkened skies shall never stop the sun from appearing to those who await the Light. Therefore, the attitude must be changed within these individuals and there must come about an awakening.
Shall it be today? We shall see. But we know that great service must be rendered and persistency must be forthcoming in the children of the Light who seek to know and to do God's will. You must throw off all of the vestiges of mortal folly; and all that has been projected against the heart center of this activity by the sinister force must come under effective God-control and be transmuted by the power of Victory's light!
You must understand the need to uphold one another in holy prayer and in every way until we have established here a body of immortal Light servers whose hearts are in tune with every note of heaven. And then the melody will unfold here as a grand symphony unfolds there in the world, and the song of God will become the song of Liberty to all people and all nations.
Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised!
Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised!
Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised!22
Let the earth be full of his glory and let men understand Him who liveth!
The Lord God liveth! We proclaim it in Liberty's name! And because He lives, you, too, shall live. In Him is your life and in Him is the life of men.23 The Life of God is given to all as a great cup; and the nectar of God is for the joy of the family of cosmos, of creation.
Creation's story - the song of creation - is the song of hope. And the hope that is born of the heart of God is a tender flame which blazes in the torch that I uphold! I uphold it now and I uphold it for aye and I uphold it for all.
Will you join me in the upholding of that torch? Will you join me in standing fast when all the world assails you? Will you join me in the hour of twilight, knowing that with me you shall watch out the coming dawn?
I thank you, ladies and gentlemen. From the heart of Liberty I have spoken.
This dictation by the Goddess of Liberty was delivered through the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood Mark L. Prophet on Sunday, May 22, 1966, at La Tourelle, Colorado Springs, Colorado.
O Liberty, bless'd Mother dear
By thy great love, hold me clear
Nearer to thy mighty flame
To serve our blessed Saint Germain.
He is thy son in freedom's birth
Who lifts on high the souls of men
Invoking vict'ry for the earth
The golden age shall come again.
Freedom is Liberty's gift to all
Divine intention manifest
I AM actively making the call
For peace to set men's hearts arest.
The kingdoms of this world are thine
For God is in thee through and through
I AM the guardian of thy shrine
Liberty's law, God's will to do.
O blessed Mother, I AM thine own
Thine eye is focused on my goal
I know that Life helps me to atone
And flames of freedom raise my soul.
Let all the earth now listen well
To tones of love now ringing clear
For love divine can break the spell
Exalt God-freedom year by year!
