Present your bodies a living sacrifice,1 O my beloved! For therein, by the sacrificial nature of the soul, there does take place the self-emptying. As when a potter takes the clay to form an earthen jar, so in this act of presenting oneself there is hollowed out the receptacle for the water of Life.
The living sacrifice is the chalice. Lo, I AM that chalice. And this day as your Mother Mary I bear in my crystal chalice even the shaft of Ascension's Flame. This flame does form lilies at the feet of the servant of God. Thus, the perfume of lilies does waft its way throughout every place where our Keepers of the Flame do keep the Flame of Life.
Hail, Maitreya! - my Son also. O thou Cosmic Christ, fill all of cosmos with thy Light, that naught else can be except that which is Christ conscious. And that which is not Christ conscious, then, must dissolve.
You see that Maitreya, the Great Chalice of Light, does bear Ascension's Flame of Cosmic Christed ones. Understand, Keepers of the Flame, how by oneness with the will of God, the flame that you choose to bear within the chalice - which you form by each and every living decree of the Word you recite - can very soon not only ignite a cosmos but also fill it all inside.
Come to understand, beloved, the great strength and presence of Elohim not only filling a cosmos but containing it and having created it as though they should hold a lapis ball in the hand and this ball should be the all of cosmos. As far as the mind can expand its reach, beloved, all is held inside a great blue sphere held in the hand of the Almighty One personified in Elohim.
I intone the noun. I intone the presence. And as I speak, so do the seven rays of Elohim pass through me to you. The sacrificial ones who have self-emptied have strong lutes, i.e., chakras, whereby the Light2 of Elohim passes through them as through musical instruments, creating sound in seven planes of Being.
Oh, how great is the goodness of God, having so created each manifestation of Himself which he did call sun, s-u-n, and therefore did endow with the capacity for Godhood!
You need not wait, beloved. For even as I have said and Moses has said, "Ye are God's!" in the sense of ownership, so God does own thee, beloved.3 It is well to admit it and to surrender. But the ownership is a two-way street. When God does own you, O beloved, you also do own that God!
And therefore, the thing-in-itself4 is the God Flame and within the God Flame is the image of Christ. Lo, I AM come and you are that Christ! I in thee and thou in me, beloved. Understand the uniqueness of this figure-eight flow.
I AM Mary. As I speak, angels of the Fifth Ray busy themselves about the alignment of chakras and four lower bodies.
Where else on earth does one find, then, those who may pray by the hour unto the hour and unto the hour? Blessed ones, in the Roman Church dispensations and graces are granted for far less prayer. So one man's co-measurement with the realm of the possible is another's with the realm of the impossible. Understand, then, ye who have the capacity to contain the living Word seven hours or five, three or nine, that this is your sense of co-measurement in God.
Angels of the Ascension Flame, even my own, come also, for my dictation to you does serve a multifaceted purpose: First of all, to endow you with some portion of that Light. Whether or not you can contain it in the heart, the chakra or the cell, beloved, does depend upon the ritual of self-emptying that you have observed.
Secondly, angels come for a gradual stepping-up of each one to receive the Elohim Astrea. Astrea with me, we together form an axis of Light, Spirit/Matter. Thus, an axis of Light is also established between the heart of your I AM Presence and Holy Christ Self, who does plant within your heart as much of that axis as you are able to bear. And may the capacity increase daily as you, touching the limits of your habitation, say to God, "O God, expand my narrow room!"
Thus, beloved, one day you will consider that all of the physical cosmos itself is yet too narrow a room for thy habitation. And thus, you will desire to enter the Heart of Elohim. And I, the handmaid of your Lord, your Holy Christ Self, will bid you enter. And thus, beloved, inside the Heart of Elohim you will know the experience of holding that cosmos as though held in the right hand of God.
Thus, for those who walk the path of the Ascension, no expanse of the physical universe or endless discovery or experimentation or wonder or fantasy can offer ultimate spiritual satisfaction. For the repetitions of matter molecules in the grand ritual of the creation and uncreation of worlds do translate to the soul, beloved, intimations of a higher ritual and order that can be contained only in the Spirit cosmos.
Thus, feel the flame - oh, feel it now from the heart of Lanello so close, as he did also hold this heart5 when taking dictations from our bands! - feel the Ascension Flame and know that ye shall not long tarry in a physical cosmos, for ye are from above and not from beneath.6
And because it is so, you, beloved - for ye are God's even contained in and containing Elohim, for does not the drop of consciousness of Elohim contain the all of Elohim? - you are called of other worlds. Having come therefrom, you desire to return to that vibration that is native to your soul and spirit.
And because you are within Elohim and Elohim is within your self, you are above the lower order of creation; and these fallen ones - and gods lesser and many - are even beneath your feet, beloved, as they are beneath my feet.
For I place my Electronic Presence around you now, that you may know the meaning of suspension in a Spirit/Matter Cosmos. And that descent through the nexus of the figure eight is but to establish coordinates in Matter in order that the children of the Light, the children of the Sun who have entered these lesser spheres, might follow the highway established by thy garments back to the center of Being.
And thus, the little one asked, "Why did we depart the other universe to come to this one?" Thus, souls who have descended from above do recall the point of origin, they do not forget their First Love. Blessed ones, those who seem to forget that First Love, these are they who never had it in the beginning. For I tell you, it is impossible to forget the love of Alpha and Omega and Elohim.
Thus, beloved, the moment of reconsecration by the emerald ray is upon you. For when you find reason to assemble for a worthy cause, we take the opportunity to enter in, when you are in that state of concentration, to perform inner work as a surgery by light rays. It is our desire, therefore, to deliver the devoted on the very sunbeams of their devotion. This we will always do, beloved.
Thus, it is well, when attending evening services, not to take in much substance of food afterwards, but perhaps some necessary liquid in small amount, to retire, then, when the energy field of the body is charged and to allow nothing else to interfere.
Thus, the continuity of devotion in the physical octave matched by the inner work at night may sometimes result in a period long enough to roll back densities and old karma that are simply outworn garments, shells of cells ready to be consumed.
Thus we seize our opportunities to serve our counterparts in the earth. And we are grateful that you seize an opportunity as Michael seizes his sword of blue flame to serve us when the call is needed.
Blessed hearts, when all of the Matter cosmos is rolled up as a scroll, know, then, that the mighty momentum that is extracted therefrom as the endowment of that cosmos by Lightbearers shall accrue to the individual causal body, thine own, as well as to the Great Causal Body of God.
When in nirvana, beloved, one's causal body and being merges entirely with God's. And when there is independent action and a going forth again, there is the separating out once more of that causal body, it having been further endowed, through this Oneness, by the very magnetism and the field of God's consciousness.
These principles must be understood by the Law of the One. When you are in that One there is never separation, for God is God. And you are not outside of Alpha and Omega, whether in nirvana, out of it, ascended or unascended. For you are not limited to the extension of yourself in form but fully God-free beings here and now.
I, Mary, recede, then, into the white-fire heart of my beloved.
"The Summit Lighthouse Sheds Its Radiance O'er All the World to Manifest as Pearls of Wisdom."
This dictation by Mother Mary was delivered through the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood Elizabeth Clare Prophet at the conclusion of the Saturday evening service August 15, 1987, after midnight, at the Royal Teton Ranch, Montana.
