Go Daily to the Secret Chamber of the Heart

     Become a Chela of the Messenger

     Our Most Beloved Sons and Daughters:

     We come surrounded by legions of angels whose acquaintance you have met in ages past. Be at home, then, for we place over this place, so consecrated by your hearts and the heart of Lord Gautama Buddha, even the replica of our Home, your Home in the Great Central Sun. So long, so long - as time is reckoned and as cycles of coming and going are reckoned - has been your absence from our Home.

     Now you have said the Om. You have sounded it from within. Now experience it in this moment that will be for you, we trust, a springboard to a new thrust for your Victory and for the ultimate Victory of the Lightbearers of the earth. Therefore, be at rest.

     Our gratitude to servants of the Light, helpers, angels, elementals, all who have come to prepare this place. In a single year you have made it once again our cradle - the cradle where we do give birth to souls of Light annually.

     Oh, it is a coming together! Oh, it is a sun center, this very place! And thus, beloved, a planetary and a personal purging is ongoing. Welcome, then, the rain, for it is a special rain of our beloved Alpha.

     I, then, Omega, greet you, and I greet you in the love of such tender understanding of your innermost thoughts and needs and desires and questionings and doubts.

     It is not easy to be in this octave, beloved. But I would remind you that the divine spark within, which is called by a number of names by the various ones who have experienced the divine spark, even the Atman itself, truly does have a name and that name is Alpha/Omega. We are the Divine Presence in your heart. Brahman is the Divine Presence. The Universal Christ is that Presence.

     Therefore, as we can understand even the dilemma of living in this octave, so will you not understand that there is also the very present possibility for you to live in that holy aura, truly that universe of Light that is the secret chamber of the heart?

     This place of our Home of Alpha and Omega with which we surround you in this hour is available to you, each one, as you will retire to the secret chamber of your heart each day.

     Beloved, just as all of Death and Hell move against your going in consciousness to the Great Central Sun, so do not underestimate the opposition to your soul each and every day of your life - that opposition which would deny the soul her entering in, as the great ritual of the conclusion of the day, entering in to the secret chamber of the heart.

     This you do in the name of your Mighty I AM Presence and Holy Christ Self, in the name of Archangel Michael. For you do understand that there are boulders and mountains of karma that stand between you, as the soul seated in the seat-of-the-soul chakra, and that secret chamber that is the replica of our Home and of all universes within and without.

     Therefore, under the old dispensation, you could not have lawfully risen to such a holy place without having balanced that karma, but in this day and hour the Archangel Michael does place his Presence over you. And therefore, in the presence of that God-free, wondrous manifestation of I AM THAT I AM, your soul may rise to that level (as she has not done in many centuries) and be tutored, beloved ones.

     Is this not the mighty grace of the Lord, who weeps for you, who loves you, who desires you not to be absent but with him, with him in the very heart of Brahman?

     Therefore, grace and mercy abound - and the grace of the Word, the Shekinah, beloved ones, the mighty power of Mother Flame and of Shakti of God. By that grace and mercy, then, you are able to come to the secret place of your God and to do so regularly and daily. To so do will strike in you a new tenderness, a tenderness so rare, whereby you can hardly find a harsh feeling or a harsh word thereafter - so wondrous, so loving [is the Presence and] so much love do you find in that [secret] place [where the threefold flame does burn].

     Let the rituals of the heart not take hours, beloved. There is no time and space in this. There is being the caretaker of your thoughts and feelings, the body, the heart and the mind, so that by a thought at the end of the day you can give the fiat to Archangel Michael, you can call to us as Father-Mother and you can mount the spiral staircase [from the seat-of-the-soul chakra to the secret chamber of the heart] and be one.

     And then when day breaks and you must go and pick up your karma again after you have journeyed through the night to the etheric octaves, you return through that point of the secret chamber of the heart to your lawful place in the seat-of-the-soul chakra and you work the works of God. And you have such love that you pour into each work! And you retain the memory of the exercises of the guarding of the throat chakra, of the silence of the bliss of God that you can maintain no matter what is the requirement of the hour.

     You, then, compress the fire of being and concentrate it, using it not for many, many idle words but saving it for the peace-commanding presence, raising it up to the point of the third eye, whereby you may see and know and make, without error, your decisions and take your steps and live in the cycles of the hours as though you were living, and indeed you are, in the spheres of the Great Causal Body of your I AM Presence.

     I AM your Divine Mother, beloved ones, and I desire to make you comfortable in the earth. (Yes, I know there are many who attempt to take from you that comfort.) Comfort comes first from the twin flames of the Holy Spirit, Alpha and Omega. It comes also as these flames may manifest the basic necessities of life and that which does establish the circle of hearth and home and family and community of brothers and sisters who are keeping the Flame with seraphim at the altar of God day and night.

     Yes, beloved, I understand the burdens that are upon you and I understand, all too well, those who place them upon you.

     Receive from my heart, O Mother of the Flame, in this hour the empowerment to call on behalf of the sons and daughters of God for the binding of the oppressor and the oppression. Receive it now, O Mother, and exercise it in behalf of thine own, whom thou doest love so profoundly!

     O beloved hearts, in your Holy Christ Flame is the intensity of Light which can be multiplied by you to accomplish so much more than you accomplish for your nonbelief. Yes, beloved, it is a matter of believing.

     Those who believe in God and in the God-identification of one and another and another in embodiment, beloved, may therefore have that tie [of God-identification] established through that One to the Great Central Sun and know many miracles. Those of nonbelief can receive nothing - I say nothing - whether from Alpha and Omega or from our Messenger.

     Therefore, go after with the vengeance of Kali the very momentum of nonbelief, unbelief, doubt, self-doubt and doubt of God which torments you and causes you to doubt anyone and everyone whom you may meet!

     Blessed hearts, self-doubt is self-denial and it is the denial of God. It is a most dangerous state of consciousness. You must wage war against it! For unless you remove it, how shall we enter in and how shall you enter in?

     You see, doubt breaks the cord of Light you build with your decrees. Each cutting doubt is a cutting of the rope you have built and raised unto the sky as a yogi with yogic powers.

     Yes, beloved, do not doubt the Law! Do not doubt God! Recognize God in yourself and do not doubt his Spirit in you as the Atman. This is the most precious advice I could give you for a lifetime and many lifetimes.

     When you are sure of the self that is God within you (and there is absolutely no reason why you should not be, because God is faithful unto you even when you have been faithless), when you are absolutely faithful to that God and trust that God, beloved, there is therefore established a tie that cannot be broken, neither by yourself nor by Death and Hell - except you yourself by free will should once again entertain doubt and break it.

     This, then, is the portion that you must give to God. If you will but give faith and trust and build upon it wisdom and illumination, wisdom and understanding, and build upon it a true and profound knowledge of the will of God, then you will find through your study not one or five or ten but many, many reasons why you ought to have faith and not doubt.

     O beloved, if the Lord Jesus Christ when he journeyed into the cities "did not many mighty works there for their unbelief,"1 do you think the father and the mother of Jesus Christ or the son, the daughter of God in the earth who is the bearer of the mantle may do any more?

     I tell you no! And therefore, we witness to the work of the Messenger unto those who believe and have faith and see beyond the veil the shining of the God Presence that is able to reach out to them and raise them. Thus, they are raised. Thus, they are healed.

     We see [that that work cannot manifest] in those who have inner conflict, inner compromise, who violate the laws of Alpha and Omega, do not confess, atone, receive penance, do not determine to work upright in the face of their God or even, God forbid, have in their conversations the criticism of the Messenger or our servants.

     Beloved ones, what we offer you today is a very direct and living contact to us through the Messenger and through the mantle of Guru that is upon her solidly and sealed. Thus, know it. Understand it. The Path and the relationship are open to you as long as you will maintain the single foundational quality, which is love.

     Love contains all others! Love balances all others! Love consumes all others! In the center of God's love and your love for him, you may approach such a close nestling to the heart of myself, your Divine Mother.

     I will tell you that the Messenger will never pursue you, beloved. You yourselves must make the request to be a known and counted and sponsored direct chela of the Messenger and, through the Messenger, to be [a chela of] the heart of El Morya and the entire hierarchy of Light unto our hearts.

     Yes, beloved, let the ties become tighter! Let them not become bondage but let them become a mighty soul liberation unto all who are a part of the great antahkarana of Life!

     I, Omega, bring you the greetings of untold billions of points of Light and angels and sons and daughters - points of Light, who after all are simply the One.

     Their love be upon you this day and forever. May you receive it this day and forever because you vow to yourself and your God Self never to leave off loving God and loving God in one another.

     How can you go wrong with this formula?

     I myself do not know.

     This dictation by beloved Omega was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood Elizabeth Clare Prophet on Wednesday, July 1, 1992, during the ten-day conference FREEDOM 1992: "Joy in the Heart" held at the Royal Teton Ranch, Park County, Montana. Before the dictation, the Messenger led the congregation in the Sacred Ritual for Oneness (Ashram Ritual 6), devotional songs to the Father-Mother God in the Great Central Sun, and the sounding of the Om.

32.1  I AM the Witness - August 9, 1992

Vol. 35 No. 32 - I AM the Witness - August 9, 1992

     I AM the Witness

     The Burning Flame of the Son of God in My Heart

     I, Elizabeth Clare Prophet, Messenger for the Great White Brotherhood, do witness to the chelas and the world to the presence in my heart of my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I witness to his Sacred Heart, one with my heart. I witness to his all-consuming love and mercy and grace upon my soul and the souls of all true Lightbearers, all true chelas of the will of God.

     I witness to the sacred fire he has placed in my heart. It is a burning fire that kindles my soul, my chakras, all of my house. This fire I often feel as a physical fire. And whenever I give concentrated devotion, decrees and meditation to Jesus' Heart within my heart and my heart in his, the burning fire increases until it becomes such an all-consuming passion, and compassion, that I must leave off from this ecstasy lest I be transported from the realm of daily practicalities.

     In this Pearl, our beloved Omega speaks to us of our Home in the Great Central Sun. Our Divine Mother and Alpha have placed a replica of it on the etheric plane over the Heart of the Inner Retreat and it is available to us as we go to the secret chamber of the heart each day.

     This is a permanent focus. Before you retire at night you can ask to be taken to the etheric Retreat of the Divine Mother at the Royal Teton Ranch and the Western Shamballa at the Heart of the Inner Retreat. And while you are there, you can be "at Home away from home" in the forcefield of our Home in the Great Central Sun that Alpha and Omega have established over the entire area of the conference site.

     Please note that beloved Omega tells us on page 422 that "there is also the very present possibility for you to live in that holy aura, truly that universe of Light that is the secret chamber of the heart." Now please reread page 422 of this Pearl.

     In sealing my witness to you of the burning flame of the Son of God in my heart, I quote from How to Know God: The Yoga Aphorisms of Patanjali:2

     36. Concentration may also be attained by fixing the mind upon the Inner Light, which is beyond sorrow.

     The ancient yogis believed that there was an actual center of spiritual consciousness, called "the lotus of the heart," situated between the abdomen and the thorax, which could be revealed in deep meditation. They claimed that it had the form of a lotus and that it shone with an inner light. It was said to be "beyond sorrow," since those who saw it were filled with an extraordinary sense of peace and joy.

     From the very earliest times, the masters of yoga emphasized the importance of meditating upon this lotus. "The supreme heaven shines in the lotus of the heart," says the Kaivalya Upanishad. "Those who struggle and aspire may enter there. Retire into solitude. Seat yourself on a clean spot in an erect posture, with the head and neck in a straight line. Control all sense-organs. Bow down in devotion to your teacher. Then enter the lotus of the heart and meditate there on the presence of Brahman - the pure, the infinite, the blissful."

     And in the Chandogya Upanishad we read:

     Within the city of Brahman, which is the body, there is the heart, and within the heart there is a little house. This house has the shape of a lotus, and within it dwells that which is to be sought after, inquired about, and realized.

     What, then, is that which dwells within this little house, this lotus of the heart? What is it that must be sought after, inquired about, and realized?

     Even so large as the universe outside is the universe within the lotus of the heart. Within it are heaven and earth, the sun, the moon, the lightning and all the stars. Whatever is in the macrocosm is in this microcosm also.

     All things that exist, all beings and all desires, are in the city of Brahman; what, then, becomes of them when old age approaches and the body dissolves in death?

     Though old age comes to the body, the lotus of the heart does not grow old. It does not die with the death of the body. The lotus of the heart, where Brahman resides in all his glory - that, and not the body, is the true city of Brahman. Brahman, dwelling therein, is untouched by any deed, ageless, deathless, free from grief, free from hunger and from thirst. His desires are right desires, and his desires are fulfilled.

     And in the Mundaka Upanishad: "Within the lotus of the heart he dwells, where the nerves meet like the spokes of a wheel. Meditate upon him as OM, and you may easily cross the ocean of darkness. In the effulgent lotus of the heart dwells Brahman, passionless and indivisible. He is pure. He is the light of all lights. The knowers of Brahman attain him."

     This method of meditation is helpful, because it localizes our image of the spiritual consciousness toward which we are struggling. If the body is thought of as a busy and noisy city, then we can imagine that, in the middle of this city, there is a little shrine, and that, within this shrine, the Atman, our real nature, is present. No matter what is going on in the streets outside, we can always enter that shrine and worship. It is always open.

     37. Or by meditating on the heart of an illumined soul, that is free from passion.

     Let your mind dwell on some holy personality - a Buddha, a Christ, a Ramakrishna. Then concentrate upon his heart. Try to imagine how it must feel to be a great saint; pure and untroubled by sense-objects, a knower of Brahman. Try to feel that the saint's heart has become your heart, within your own body. Here, again, the localization of the image will be found very helpful. Both Hindus and Christians practice this form of meditation - concentrating not only upon the heart but also, sometimes, upon the hands and the feet and the whole form [of a personality of the Godhead, i.e., an Ascended Master, or a saint].
