At King Arthur's Court on the Occasion of the Celebration of the Thirty-Fourth Anniversary of the Founding of The Summit Lighthouse on August 7, 1958
A Mighty Cathedral of Light around This Place
Myriad angels of illumination's flame form with their bodies of light and the brightness of the golden [aura] of the sun a cathedral of light around this place. For though you have chosen to offer your devotions in a manger, so to speak, you have built by them, through these years of service and trial and persecution, a mighty cathedral over this place.
It is a cathedral of the Second Ray of illumination's flame whereby the power of the great minds of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, the World Teachers and their disciples might anchor here that living presence and that place at inner levels which is a part of the Retreat of the Divine Mother, the cathedral itself. It is in place, beloved. I ask you to meditate and see this giant edifice as many hundreds of people come and go and the devotions ring and the angels sing, as you have heard these choirs sing.1
Yes, beloved, there are some things that cannot be stopped by anyone, namely the rewards that are due unto "these Prophets, these saints,"2 these children of the Sun and sons and daughters.
Blessed ones, I AM Lanto and I come in the presence of the great T'ai Chi, in the sphere of the Father-Mother God. Therefore my voice is the voice of Alpha, the voice of Omega. Therefore you know me as androgynous being and you can feel how the Father embodies the tremendous love of the Mother and how the Mother embodies the great manifestation of the Lawgiver, who is Father.
The design of this cathedral is like that of some of the greatest cathedrals in Europe, yet it is even larger. Therefore, many souls of Light may begin coming here at inner levels, for we establish this cathedral not alone for the adornment of your soul and your heart and the secret chamber of your heart but also as a place of the gathering. For did you not outpicture in your brochure the paths that lead all home to the Heart of the Inner Retreat?
When they come to the wilderness retreat, beloved, they gather in the great tabernacle of the congregation as of old. But when they come to the mighty Yellowstone, whose waters have a special energy from the heart of the earth, there they will find in the outer place the cathedral built.
Thus, none shall hold back the building of the City Foursquare and the adding unto it, in that place of the Divine Mother's retreat, all the buildings and the necessities of life. Therefore, beloved ones, you may call for the filling in and the precipitation of every part of the Inner Retreat that is on the etheric plane that it might be manifest on this land, the land that is a part of the Great White Brotherhood above and below.
Blessed ones, when we entertain guests from other systems of worlds, who come to visit earth for many reasons, we are well pleased to show our retreats in the etheric octave, but most of all we are pleased that you have consecrated a land that we may also call our own. Let this retreat of the Great White Brotherhood on earth remain physical until the signs are fulfilled, the ages are fulfilled and its reason for being is fulfilled.
Thus, the Seven Mighty Archangels dedicate this cathedral this night in honor of the Mother in the earth, the blessed Virgo, who embodies the consciousness of earth and all elemental life, the Mother who is Mary and Kuan Yin and Lady Master Venus and all of the Ascended Lady Masters who are mothering and nurturing the lost souls that are found in the earth.
I show you, then, at inner levels the blueprints that we have for the placing of the buildings, the homes, the study halls and all that you need for your expansion. May you meditate upon these and bring them into precipitation through novenas to Lord Cyclopea, Elohim of the Fifth Ray.
Now, beloved, you can bask in the sunlight of the rays of illumination's flame year round. And though the cold blasts of winter come and the icy rejection of the child in the womb, you may know the glow of the aura of many of your compatriots at inner levels.
There is a great sense of warmth and holiness that has continued throughout this day as your hearts with such great devotion have come to this altar. I thank you for receiving our Messenger still, for tarrying with the earth and taking [unto your hearts] out of the fire of the altar a new fervor and a zeal to kindle that flame wherever you yourselves erect an altar of God. So, beloved, let the single candle be the sign that where your altar is, there is a tiny flame that is taken out of the flame of the ark of the covenant [and placed there by angels who tend the ark].
Thus, Keepers of the Flame, keep the flame of the Mighty I AM Presence wherever you are upon earth and know that each two-foot by four-foot space, each little corner where the Chart and the pictures of Saint Germain and Jesus and of Kuthumi and El Morya hang and where the creche scene and the focuses are, so there shall be attending angels.
You have heard the request of the Blessed Mother for the continuing novena of the rosary.3 This began within minutes of the conclusion of the dictation and has been continuing. You can feel the presence and the love, the all-pervading perfume of the blessed Mother of Christ as you now have a shield greater than you know and greater than many that you have raised up. The shield of the Divine Mother of all cosmos is easily manifest through the Archeia of the Fifth Ray.
Thus, beloved ones, though you may not have the numbers in your various groups to maintain this vigil perpetually, you may at least see to it that a rosary is given daily and perhaps the Child's Rosary, though the longer ones and the Surrender Rosary [and the Archangel Michael Rosary] have their special contribution else they would not have been written.
In the flame of the Royal Teton, then, we stand and we do celebrate the birth of The Summit Lighthouse. We do stand surrounding our chief, the Chief of the Darjeeling Council, for his great wisdom and his great sacrifice.
When the Messenger took the platform this day, so the ray of Light that did descend from the heart of El Morya was the ray of sacrifice. Therefore, I speak to you of sacrifice as a necessity in all endeavors of the Lord's building in the earth. It is simply the requirement that those who lay the foundations and continue the work must have a spirit of sacrifice, and this quality shines forth from among the four whom you follow on the Path of the Ruby Ray.4 Thus, we speak of sacrifice in the midst of service, surrender and selflessness.
El Morya did sacrifice greatly to bring forth this activity. Only El Morya, beloved, would begin with such tiny beginnings of only three individuals who did come together. Blessed ones, it is truly amazing what the faith of the will of God and the Chohan of the First Ray can work. Therefore, alone did he stand and receive that grant. And thus, when you shall have had your finest victory, he shall stand [at your side], the one who also deserves the reward.
Now, beloved ones, it is an hour to consider what is sacrifice, and on this subject I would speak to you. Sacrifice is truly the flow of the living flame, the essence of the blood of the heart itself. It is truly giving a portion of your very self that you do not expect to have returned. Sacrifice is giving not only the rays of the sun but some portion of the sun itself. This is an endowment that the individual soul can make and thereby endow the endeavors of the Great White Brotherhood with his own body and his own blood as the living Christ.
True and whole sacrifice comes from those who are the Christed ones, for they sacrifice a portion of their Christhood, their Son and Sonship, their core identity, that others might live. Let us not depart from this understanding. And let us know that all who have ever entered into these levels of sacrifice have received in return the multiplication, ultimately, of their Christhood again and again.
Sacrifice is a risk. You might call it a gamble. For when a Master does put his very life on the line for an endeavor such as this, there is always, always, beloved, the possibility of failure. For this is the way of the human consciousness, as Saint Germain has said: the human consciousness is not reliable and cannot be trusted. This day it wags one way and that day it wags the other.
And so you see, beloved, as you have embarked upon the second thirty-three-year spiral of the activity,5 you have met with subtle opposition that comes from inner levels and will be outlined to you as [you are given] an understanding of each year's astrology [as the years] unfold from this hour forward. Know, then, beloved, that the temptations are more subtle, for you have entered the path of the five secret rays.6 The five secret rays come to give you balance, for do they not represent the white fire core of being, the nucleus of the atom of self?
Why, of course they do! Therefore they assist you in getting to the very core of your identity and they assist you in bringing that identity into the fullness of your Christhood. This is not easy. It can be experienced as spiritual surgery and the surgery of the soul, but you have the finest surgeons and mentors and those who are masters in understanding the soul as the psyche of each one.
So you see, beloved, that to have the crown upon the pyramid for the next thirty-three years, you will have to take stock and examine the subtleties that manifest [in and through you]. When something is bothering you here and something is bothering you there and something is bothering you elsewhere, think of how many knots of dark energy are becoming islands in your unconscious. Think how this [tie-up of energy] is draining your light. Think how [having this energy tied up] is becoming a momentum to tip the scales and tip the mighty ship that you are aboard.
So you see, beloved, the wise counsel of the ancient sages of the East which you have heard this day is that you let nothing stay, you let nothing be left as a small little knot or a small problem or a small irritation. Such things on the astral plane and in the subconscious can eat and eat and eat away until they may become a devouring cancer of the soul.
The soul can be destroyed. The soul can come to naught. This is the Law. The soul is the potential to become one with the permanent reality of Being, but the soul has free will. [The soul can choose not to be in God - permanently.]
Therefore, learn the wisdom: for the sinister force knows that you will set aside the little things and therefore it sets up little things, little botherations, and sometimes larger ones. Deal with them each day from the superior position of being seated on the throne of your own Holy Christ Self, rising to that level by sheer devotions to the Holy Christ Flame. Yes, beloved, if you cannot quite sit in the seat of your Holy Christ Self, you can call to be taken to the secret chamber of the heart and kneel before the altar there.
Desire to have cleared from you each day the burdens - whatever they may be - those of a physical, financial nature or those deeply problematical in the area of relationships. Blessed ones, you may not be able to solve them in the sense that they are completely eliminated but you can solve your attitude toward them. You will wrap them in light, you will be at peace in God and you will turn the entire matter over to Saint Germain. You may wish to give decree 20.16 as a daily call, releasing the power of your being into those fiats. So much can come to you, beloved, [if you put forth the effort].
Therefore know that when you are at peace there will be resolution because you are centered in God. Then there is no longer a knot even though [the burden] may be with you for a while, for there will be the disintegration of its intensity as you replace it by Light, even by the cloud of infinite energy7 which you invoke.
Thus, beloved ones, clear yourselves of the nagging of this and that, your unhappiness with an encounter with someone here or there, all of the things that people allow to come be-tween them and the love of one another and the love of Christ. I counsel you to deal with these things and then you shall weather the larger matters of planetary cycles of astrology and how that astrology may affect, as it surely will affect, your [personal] lives. For there is no one upon the planet who shall not be affected by the coming cycles.The days ahead for you who are honorable and sincere students of the Light will be days of testing. You have been told that at winter and summer solstice you receive final exams.8 Each year you must prepare for those exams. The Christmas season is particularly difficult [because of] records of ancient pagan rites and the world in merrymaking. [What with the populace] entering more into those satanic rites of the fertility cults, of sensuality and the misuse of the sacred fire, [surfeiting themselves in] all manner of drugs and alcohol and sweets, it is a very bad time of the year.
Do not get caught in the vortex! For I, Lanto, am your Mentor and Guru and I tell you that many a chela has regularly failed the December tests in the name of family and family mesmerism. Therefore I warn you in advance that these failures go on your record and it does take some doing to scrub that record until you can get out that spot. And it becomes a damnable spot indeed, as Francis Bacon wrote.9
Yes, beloved, therefore it is necessary to plan your years as being the six months of the yang and the six months of the yin in the power of the great T'ai Chi - an initiation in the Father, an initiation in the Mother.
As you approach summer solstice, you have the same initiations but they come in an entirely different manner. Here you are moving with the spring energies, moving forward, and you must take care that you master the mighty sun of Aries and the love of Taurus that when you enter Gemini and come to that summer solstice [in Cancer] you shall truly not be divided in the anima and the animus10 but rather whole within yourself in the male and female parts. This you work on during the preceding months so that when you come to that hour you are not divided - divided a chela from the Guru, a disciple from the Master, a desire body from the mental body and the four lower bodies from the living Christ.
Thus, the Gemini twins must give. And you must give that you might find yourself in harmony with the other half of yourself and know that consequently wherever your twin flame is, you also have harmony with that twin flame.
Blessed ones, there is a formula for the building of this retreat. There is a center place in the cathedral and in that place there is a flame that burns. And [coming] out from that center focus are rings upon rings upon rings. These rings have markings on them of positions - positions that are open to be taken up by specifically called, chosen and appointed lifestreams.
As you see these many rings that go out almost infinitely from the cathedral floor, you find, then, that some [devotees] have come to occupy their places and some have not. Some have occupied them for a time and left. It is like the Table Round, beloved. The Table Round was filled, the positions ordained. And yet, all of a sudden, many did decide to go to quest the Holy Grail, when the Grail was not for all. And though King Arthur warned that that would be the destruction of mighty Camelot of old, yet they left. And only a few, a very few, did actually have some form of contact with the Grail - Parsifal, Galahad, Bors and Launcelot, beloved.11
Yet all was lost, for those whose time had not come for this initiation determined to go out to find - what? The Grail would not be revealed to them for many lifetimes hence, even unto the present hour. And yet [some of] the same ones depart this place - depart the place, beloved, where the Holy Grail could [finally] become a reality unto them.
Therefore, my call to you out of the power of the Central Sun - out of the power of Apollo and Lumina, Jophiel and Christine, Helios and Vesta, Alpha and Omega in the Great Central Sun Magnet and God Surya and so many more unnamed of the hosts of Light - is to keep the flame of the Inner Retreat!
Keep the flame and the call of Camelot reborn here in this place. Keep the flame, beloved, of the Mystery School and know that each one of you who does tarry here does actually hold the balance for millions.
Sometimes [the planetary effluvia] becomes heavy, beloved, and if you have not decreed from the depths of your being, you feel that weight. Thus, because you, by your single lifestream, hold the balance for so many, the force will gnaw at you: it will try to eat of you and it will attempt to put so much pressure upon you that [you begin to believe] your only recourse against that pressure, your only freedom from it to know peace of mind, is to give in to it. It is then that you decide for this or that seemingly legitimate reason that it is better that you be elsewhere on planet earth[ - anywhere else but at the Inner Retreat]!
I discuss this with you, for I know - I am convinced because I see clearly - that as you wait upon the Lord in this retreat, all things will come to you, whether it is resolution of one kind or another or the [specific] therapy you need, or a spiritual quickening and enlightenment. Whatever the seeming lack, you will find it as you rise in the rings of light that move not only outward but upward.
Thus, the Lord has called you: "Occupy till I come!"12 This means, "Be in your seat! Be in your position! Hold that point in the universal map of the stars!" And the stars I speak of are the Causal Bodies of the saints. Hold your place! Do not vacate it that some scoundrel of a Modred might enter and sit there with proud mien and folded arms and curled spine.
Yes, beloved, you have a grand mission in life. It is sometimes difficult for the human mind to balance the knowledge of the grand mission with the remnant of the ego, which in an unbalanced state will then move into a consciousness of pride, an idolatrous consciousness of the self.
Therefore, it is not well for you to see and know the fullness of the glory of your I AM Presence or Holy Christ Self or even that which you have been in past ages long ago before you took the path that had nowhere else to go but to wind downward, downward, downward into the lower octaves. And had you walked any further, beloved, (and some of you did) you would have arrived at the astral levels.
Some of you here tonight have been pulled out of the astral levels by the Two Witnesses, by the Archangels, by the intercession of prayer and perpetual decrees offered here [at this altar] and around the world. Thus, many of you are at a much higher place [in vibration and consciousness] than you would have been in this lifetime had it not been for the few and then the many who have kept the flame.
Now I say, seek the stability of the yang mind that you might also know the peace of God and be able to command the forces of your being in Jesus' words, "Peace, be still and know that I AM God!"13 That "Peace, be still!" is spoken to every agitation of the mind and the body, every disturbance and every emotional pull.
There are certain individuals whose divine plan it is to be elsewhere. Let them be elsewhere, therefore, by their divine plan and by their calling. This you can determine with the Messenger.
Do not be afraid to ask the question "Where is my right place in time and space on earth today - at the Inner Retreat or somewhere else?" You are sincere and you desire answers. Questions that involve the future of a lifestream are weighty matters, and you must not dodge the issue or dodge the Messenger.
When you are out of sorts, admit it. Ask the help of your brothers and sisters. This is what happens in the retreats of the Great White Brotherhood in the etheric octave. Brothers and sisters help one another with prayer, with love, with strong bands of light and circles convoked until the one can pass through a very dark place and record that would fairly pull him out of the Mystery School (which is anchored in the etheric octave) and deliver him to some level of the astral plane were it not for the reinforcement of other unascended ones who come to his aid.
You see, beloved, when dealing ultimately with the dweller-on-the-threshold, you are waging a war that is a life-and-death struggle. It is not necessarily required that you face this alone. Brothers and sisters and angels and seraphim may come to your side. Yes, the dispensations are upon the earth in this hour, and many that you benefit from that you do not know about in the outer. Such is the way in the inner retreats. Let it be the way here.
What we so often see as the problem is that the individual who has the problem is also willful and dense, not willing to change in small ways and great that he might be helped by his fellow brethren. Thus, beloved, an opportunity can be lost for many lifetimes [when one takes] a wide circle in the world that does not lead so quickly as a straight line back to the heart of Morya.
We speak to you because we love you, because we are with you, because we see your past and your future. All things are made known to us by the angels of the Keeper of the Scrolls. Thus, beloved, we come to spare you the agonizing pain of a future realization of a decision made that is so terribly wrong, so out of the way of the direct path.
Blessed hearts, there are a few requirements. We begin, then, with some measure of humility. Where there is not some humility in the individual, there is little heaven or earth can do for that one. And thus, pride does go before every fall, and rebellion is like unto the catapulting of an individual from here to kingdom come. Rebellion is such an intense momentum, beloved, and so deep-seated - based, in reality, upon the [child's] hatred of the Father and the Mother, [both the human parents and the Father/Mother God] - that when it is fully unleashed it actually drives the individual far afield from the place [of the Inner Retreat].
Thus, beloved, another basic requirement is love. Where there is not established in the heart a real Divine Love for God and for the Atman in everyone and for souls struggling, where there is not love that can forgive, there is little or nothing that can be done for the individual. The one who will not forgive another or himself out of pride or some other condition of consciousness simply has bound himself hand and foot, and he is bound from head to toe. He cannot step forward or backward or to the right or to the left.
For some, forgiveness is hard. Seek it through the heart of Kuan Yin. Find it! For find it you must or you will not resolve the equation of being. Let it be something you look for everywhere within and without until you discover the key that the Messenger has already given you regarding forgiveness.14
Forgiveness is becoming Kuan Yin. Forgiveness is a sun of Mercy's fire. It is sending mercy on the just and the unjust15 and allowing God to mete out Divine Justice. This is your lawful position as chelas at Maitreya's Mystery School. When you take the law and the justice into your own hands, beloved, you take them out of God's hands and you do not fare well.
And so, beloved, for those who do not make it [here], I say, there is a conscious and an unconscious reason why. May they also increase in the many outer rings of opportunity in the field, in Teaching Centers and Study Groups and on their own, for truly these doors are open unto those who would have a continuing walk with us.
Let us call, then, for the Lightbearers to be raised up and for you to be healed. Thus, it is a healing light that descends upon this anniversary of The Summit Lighthouse. It is a healing light for all who will receive it from the heart of Mother Mary and Raphael to the heart of Hilarion [to the heart of] the Elohim of the Fifth Ray and [to the hearts of] millions of healing angels.
We come for the healing of those whose hearts are willing [to be healed], whose heads will come into alignment [with the will of God] and whose desire is to enter in to the path of sacrifice through wholeness. We desire to see your wholeness [manifest] and we are applying many methods and opening many avenues for this to take place.
Let not, then, the awareness of your own condition of absence of wholeness in your psyche bring you to the place where you think that anywhere but here is the place to work on it. Blessed ones, it is at the altar of God and only at the altar of God that true and lasting alteration, alchemy, does come forth.
Love one another with the illumined light of the Flame of Love. Love one another in celebration of the will of God. Love one another because El Morya has first loved you, has placed his faith and trust in the God within you and taken his chances.
Reward him, then, and know that the bands of angels and disciples ascended [serving at] the Royal Teton Retreat are working with each and every one of you nightly. There is not a night that you are not God-taught. And when you are at Summit University, fulfilling your decrees and studies, and your mind is engaged with the Lord, you have deeper and more intense sessions at inner levels.
This is Maitreya's Mystery School. This is the place where Gautama Buddha has sponsored the Messenger in the performing of the clearances that you will receive this week. Therefore, beloved, do not think that it is merely an outer physical school. You are spending twenty-four hours a day at Summit University and you are welcome to continue at inner levels after you have concluded this summer course.
We are preparing you under the Second Ray to be teachers, to be ministering servants, to be knowledgeable in the paths of the world's religions and capable and qualified to deal with so many kinds of people with so many burdens and so many sins that [it] might be unthinkable to you [that you should minister unto them]. Remember that no matter what the sin or the compromise, the soul needs love and nurturing and the cup of cold water in Christ's name and perhaps even that portion of your Christhood which you shall lay down in sacrifice for the saving of [the one and then the] many.
And so, Jesus said that he could lay down his body and take it again.16 You may do the same. But while you give your body, so shall the eagles gather17 and the mighty ones. For they come, beloved, because they recognize the place where the Body of the Christ is.
That is the key to the increase and the shining of Church Universal and Triumphant, which is the true city on the hill that cannot be hid.18 Therefore, you become the pillar in the temple and your presence maintains the wall of protection. You become, then, those who around the world can accurately teach others the Law and the ancient wisdom.
I AM Lanto and I reveal to you my threefold flame blazing - blazing from my very heart chakra, shining through being and garments.19 Thus aspire, for the threefold flame is the way Home for those who have lost the way.
My beloved students, my beloved staff, beloved families, beloved children, beloved Keepers of the Flame who have come to this state and endured hardship - my beloved ones who have prospered, who have been ingenious, who have taught the little children - all of you, all Keepers of the Flame of the whole wide world, I say to you, beloved ones: Receive me now.
Let your threefold flame be the candle in the night and do not be afraid to lend that candle to those to whom the Lord directs you. Be a beacon in the night! This is my calling to each and every one of you. Be a beacon in the night.
The only beacon you have in this octave, beloved, is the Light of your heart. When the long night comes upon the earth, it will be the Light of your heart that keeps the Flame. Therefore increase that fire through harmony and love, through study and the discipline of the will.
Be a beacon in the night. This is my call to you, beloved ones. Heart to heart, give resuscitation to those who once had the flame and no longer have it, to those who began as Lightbearers and children of the Sun - yes, heart-to-heart resuscitation.
Now let the kindling fire be celebrated as you celebrate Holy Communion and I myself serve you through our ministering servants. This Communion, beloved, even the wine and the bread, shall have not only the transubstantiation of [the Body and the Blood of] the Lord Jesus Christ but also that special essence I give to you for your increasing of the heart.
You should feel it now, beloved, as I step up the heart, the chakra and the threefold flame of the Messenger that this might be a balance point for you in this octave. So, what increment can be given to you is given. How much more will be given to you you will know one day when you balance the threefold flame.
So, where you are in an imbalance, which is where most of you are, I come to increase the lowest of the three plumes that you might work on that aspect. When your threefold flame is in balance, beloved ones, then it can begin to spin, and then you will see how it is the resurrection flame throughout your heart. Only when the balance comes can you produce your own resurrection flame from your own heart.
I AM the sealing of the souls. I AM the sealing of your souls in the whiteness of glory. The whiteness of this glory does allow you to see the spots remaining. You can remove them by rubbing, by polishing, but the best way to remove them is by the balanced threefold flame.
Thus, I commend you to the heart of every ascended member of the Great White Brotherhood who blesses The Summit Lighthouse as an organization, as a mandala of heaven and earth. I bless you with the flame - the threefold flame - of all who serve from above. Let the flame itself and your retreat to the secret chamber [of your heart] become the center of your life, your Summit Lighthouse, your cathedral, your Community and all of your activities.
I AM Lanto. Watch for me. I am often standing or seated to the right of the Messenger as she delivers to you the lectures we have outlined for her. I am here more often than you see me. Therefore look more carefully.
In the love of illumination's flame, I seal you in the heart of Helios and Vesta.
[The Messenger: Let us take Holy Communion. Please bring the bread and the wine for blessing and turn in your hymnbooks to the hymns to the Holy Christ Self and Flame.]
From the heart of Helios and Vesta, the Lord Jesus Christ, there does descend now the mighty ray, the ray of the Body and Blood of our Lord, the ray of Alpha and Omega for the balancing of cosmic forces in the earth - and the soul and the heart, the mind and the four lower bodies.
Therefore, receive Holy Communion. For this bread and this wine is charged by the action of the Central Sun that you might begin to see yourselves as rays of Light and emissaries of that Sun with a mission that is powerful, that can be accomplished by Wisdom, wise dominion, and Love.
Therefore, take now, take the bread of Life and drink of the cup of the sorrow and the joy, the crucifixion and the resurrection, the sacrifice and the victory of all who have gone before you.
[Hymns 27, 29, 30, 36; Ritual of Holy Communion]
Messenger's Blessing of the Love Offering:
Beloved Alpha and Omega, beloved Helios and Vesta, Lord Lanto and all hosts of Light gathered in this place, in this mighty cathedral, we express our gratitude for this manifestation, this precipitation of the house of the Lord. We are surrounded by it, O God, and we bask in the glory of the golden flames that rise from everywhere beneath our feet.
Surely you have brought to us God's Central Sun on earth in this mighty citadel of light so grand, so magnificent, so holy. The design and the geometry, O God, is truly the work of artisans of the Central Sun.
Receive our humble offering as we yet dwell in the lowly estate of the flesh. As we await our resurrection and our ascension, so we embrace thy threefold flame, Lord Lanto and all Ascended Masters. Let the celebration of this flame on the altar of our hearts be a daily occurrence as our high priest, our Holy Christ Self, does officiate at the altar of being.
O Holy Christ Self, recite the Mass of our Church Universal and Triumphant that is not yet even in print. Recite it, then, and let the Holy Eucharist and the wine be there truly on the altar of this Church. Let many come to the services of the secret chamber of the heart of this cathedral and our own.
O beloved Mother Mary, we pray this night for the cutting free of many souls!
Multiply our love and therefore our love offering, O God! We are grateful for this day, for this illumination.
We seal these hearts and all people of peace and Christ love, people of the Buddha, people who are burdened and bowed down, though they deal with karma and the oppressor itself, O God. Deliver those in Yugoslavia and Ethiopia, South Africa and throughout the earth where war, plague, famine are already raging and death is visiting many houses, and thus the Four Horsemen continue their ride.
O God, we are grateful for the graces we have. Let us remember to compare our situation with that of others who have so much less - the impoverished ones, impoverished of the spirit and of the soul and in anguish for the loss of loved ones this day.
We pray, O God, that all souls who have passed from the screen of life since we have made this call be taken to the octaves where they are assigned. Let evil spirits be bound and fallen angels who have received the judgment of the fourth woe who are not in embodiment be taken to the Court of the Sacred Fire. Let the earth be delivered, O God, and let the Earth Mother give birth to her Manchild.
In the name of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit and the Divine Mother, Amen.
This dictation by Lord Lanto was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood Elizabeth Clare Prophet on Sunday, August 23, 1992, at the Royal Teton Ranch, Park County, Montana. The day was consecrated in celebration of the thirty-fourth anniversary of the founding of The Summit Lighthouse on August 7, 1958. Prior to the dictation, the Messenger delivered the first half of her lecture "Mysteries of the Tao." She delivered the second half on August 30, 1992. [N.B. Throughout this Pearl, bracketed material denotes words unspoken yet implicit in the dictation, added by the Messenger under Lord Lanto's direction for clarity in the written word.] Throughout these notes PoW is the abbreviation for Pearls of Wisdom.
20.16 Seven Calls for Illumined Action
I In the name of my Mighty I AM Presence, I refuse to engage my energies in anything less than perfection. (3x)
II Beloved I AM Presence and beloved Saint Germain, you take command of this entire situation. I shall not be moved! (3x)
III In the name of my Mighty I AM Presence, I demand the reversing of all negatively qualified energy directed against me or the Light for which I stand. (3x)
IV In the name of my Mighty I AM Presence, I give you, beloved El Morya, beloved Saint Germain and the beloved Lords of Karma, the full power and authority of my lifestream to take command of my entire consciousness, being and world, my affairs, the activities of The Summit Lighthouse, the United States of America and all Ascended Master activities, worlds without end.
V In the name of my Mighty I AM Presence, I call for the full power of the sacred fire from the heart of beloved Prince Oromasis and Diana to blaze through my entire consciousness, being and world and to burn out of my four lower bodies all that is not of the Light. I ask beloved Prince Oromasis and Diana to walk through my electronic belt every twenty-four hours and to burn out of my etheric body the cause, effect, record and memory of all that would hinder the balanced manifestation of the Love, Wisdom and Power of God through my lifestream.
I call to beloved Helios and Vesta, to the beloved Maha Chohan and to beloved Prince Oromasis and Diana to resurrect the memory and the pattern of my divine plan fulfilled and the full consciousness of the Christ that was ordained by God in the beginning of my individualized manifestation.
VI In the name of my Mighty I AM Presence, I call for the light of ten thousand suns, the full power of beloved Mighty Astrea's cosmic circle and sword of blue flame and the full-gathered momentum of the violet flame from the heart of the violet planet to descend and envelop my entire consciousness, being and world with the overcoming Victory of the entire Spirit of the Great White Brotherhood and the World Mother.
VII In the name of Jesus the Christ, we agree together on earth that the kingdom of God shall come into manifestation, that the Will of God shall be the guiding light in our service and thatthe Light shall prevail in the hearts of all mankind.

"Put Your Troubles in a Sack and Cast It into the Violet Flame!"
I am writing to witness to the pearls of wisdom found in the early teachings recorded on the Only Mark albums. I also want to attest to the love of the Masters and their ever-faithful response to our prayers.
During this past spring I entered a cycle that seemed particularly difficult. I felt as if I were in a deep, dark, bottomless pit. Things seemed so bad that I even considered leaving the Teachings. However, it didn't take much thought on the matter for me to realize that there was nowhere else for me to go. For better or for worse, this Church is the only place for me if I really want to make my ascension. I realized that I needed to find the strength to stand and still stand - and to conquer my lesser self and wrong desires. I needed to surrender to God so as not to break.
I decreed and decreed. The darker things seemed, the more I decreed. I also increased the use of Archangel Michael's sword during this period. Nothing seemed to help or to make a difference.
Then came the Easter conference. I arrived at the ranch at about 2:00 p.m. on Thursday afternoon. Since I had not yet eaten lunch, I went straight to the cafeteria. All the tables were full, so I went to El Morya's Chapel. A dictation by the Great Divine Director from one of the Only Mark albums was playing. It was his October 15, 1966 dictation given in Colorado Springs. I listened intently as the Great Divine Director invited us to cast all of our burdens into a sack. He said:
Will you tonight put your troubles one and all in a sack and then cast it into the violet transmuting flame and say unto me and to Saint Germain: "Saint Germain and Great Divine Director, I am putting all of my troubles, my burdens, my responsibilities into a sack and I am asking that they be consumed by the violet transmuting flame. And I am asking for a release of God-intelligent energy into my world, that I will know how to create new God-designs of responsibility, cosmically orientated, and to replace all of the human dissonance that I have ever expressed or manifested by the Christ Mind in action!"
I decided to try it. After eating, I went to decree. Soon after I arrived, we started to do violet flame decrees. I was close to the picture of Saint Germain. I looked straight into his eyes and said, "OK, Saint Germain, the Great Divine Director said to put all my troubles into a sack and to throw that sack into the violet flame. So here you go." I then named all the things that had been burdening me as I put them into the sack. Then I envisioned myself hurling this sack across time and space to Saint Germain.
We were no more than thirty seconds into the decree when I felt a physical weight lift from my heart. What was dark and burdensome immediately turned to joy. I breathed a deep breath and smiled a grateful smile to Saint Germain. I was surprised to experience the answer to my prayer in such a physical way and I was ever so thankful to experience a ray of light pierce through the darkness. Thank you, Saint Germain!
From that moment on, things lightened up in my life and I began to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I also began to feel a much closer tie to the heart of Saint Germain. He has become a very special friend.
Now I often pull out my Only Mark tapes and listen to them regularly. They contain wonderful teachings that I find help me get back on the track and uplift and motivate me to keep on keeping on.
Mother, I thank you and Mark for your dedication to getting these Teachings out to the Lightbearers. I am grateful for your ever-constant love and direction.
My wife and I first discovered the Teachings of the Ascended Masters in 1975. We were privileged to attend the dedication of the Minneapolis Teaching Center on January 24, 1976. The center chapel was small and we were in the first row about three feet from you as you spoke briefly. You stated that Saint Germain would dictate.
At the moment the Master began speaking, there was present a most beautiful and powerful fragrance of violets. Saint Germain said: "I have come forth to give you the contact of my retreat and my focus in Transylvania."
Both my wife and I noticed the scent of violets and remarked on it afterward. But we were astonished to find that no one who had been sitting near us had had the same experience.
How often when we say our "Tube of Light" decree, dictated by Saint Germain, do we pass over the words "that all whom I contact shall always be blessed with the fragrance of violets from God's own heart in memory of the blessed dawning day when all discord - cause, effect, record and memory - is forever changed into the Victory of Light and the peace of the ascended Jesus Christ." This is more than just a pretty phrase. It is indeed a reality of our beloved Master's heart and presence - and, hopefully, one day of our own.
I just wanted to write you and let you know how very, very grateful I am that you prepared Mother Mary's wonderful scriptural rosaries for all of us.
The scriptural rosaries mean so much to me and are a real key for me on the Path. The first thing I bought when I found the Teachings was The Fourteenth Rosary: The Mystery of Surrender booklet. Not having been raised a Catholic, I was new to the concept of the rosary and the Hail Mary. So when I saw the words "Hail Mary" printed in the booklet after each verse, I didn't realize that they were the title of a prayer. I would just say the words "Hail Mary" after each verse, rather than reciting the prayer.
But then I bought the book My Soul Doth Magnify the Lord! and learned how the rosary and Hail Mary were to be given. From then on, every morning before going to work I would give the rosary, reading it right from the book. It was such a perfect foundation for my day and brought me such peace, communion with God and a greater sense of the holiness of life.
Then I went to Mother Mary and Raphael's quarter of Summit University and we gave the rosary every morning in the chapel - what joy to give the rosary with the tape and with a group of devotees!
No matter how many times I give the rosary, each time as I meditate on the scriptural verses, I receive a new revelation of some inner meaning. It is as if I am right there with Jesus as each event unfolds. I think about Jesus, his path, what he must have thought and felt and how it relates to me today. It is so wondrous to me that I can hear and give the verses over and over again, yet each time there is another meaning revealed.
Over the years as my days became busier, I gave the rosaries less and began giving the shorter Child's Rosary, which Mother Mary released for children and those who do not have time to give the longer one. Although the Child's Rosary is beautiful and a real meditation on the Mother Flame, there is something so very special about the alchemy of giving the scriptural rosaries in their newly recorded format with a hymn to Mother Mary before and after. I feel they are one of the missing keys for me to restore the holiness to my daily life and service. They bring me a grace of harmony, centeredness, peace and a pool of love in my heart that enables me to greet all that the day brings with joy. The prayers at the end of the rosary - the Consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart and the Fatima Prayers - remind me of the great purpose of it all: to serve others and to bring the Teachings to all the Lightbearers.
These scriptural rosaries make the Path more real - and more attainable! I encourage everyone to take the time to give the full-length rosary and enter into that intimate communion with Mother Mary and Jesus - the rewards are innumerable. I can't wait until we have a new rosary tape for every day of the week.
Thank you for the gift of these precious rosaries and for your unending love. It is truly my privilege to serve in this Holy Community.
