Raphael is my name! And I come into your midst, for I would bring healing to your souls and healing unto the nations.
This is a time in the earth of the descent of plagues, for mankind is vulnerable. And that vulnerability comes not so much by his karma, though his karma is real and heavy, but by the pollution of the earth body itself and man's scant knowledge of the true science of nutrition and what is right for his body - a vessel made of clay, yet fit for the habitation of his God.
Therefore, in profound reverence receive your Christ into your temple. And know that if your Christ does not daily abide in your temple, it is because you have yet some housecleaning to do. You have yet to raise up the Light and to know that you are capable of this and that another shall not do it for you, namely the Lord and Saviour. He comes to save by grace yet tutors your soul in the way of carrying your own burden of karma - and your own burden of Light.
Yes, you have lived again and again. Look into the mirror of my aura and see all past ages before you if you can. I would remove the veil that separates you from your inner sight and yet that, too, is a karmic condition that you must balance.
This condition may have been caused by the densification of the physical body through the abuse of that body. Or it may even have been caused by the misuse of the All-Seeing Eye of God through your abuse of the third eye in ancient days gone by. And thereby you would have disqualified yourself from having the inner vision and felt the need to run about hither and thither in order to know which was the way to go - "Is it this? Is it that?"
Thus, in a state of human questioning and in a pretense of intellectual prowess, people seek to know the meaning of life. Yet they use so little of the capacity of their own Deathless Solar Body to mirror the Great Causal Body of God, so little of the faculties of the soul or of the intuitive powers of the heart. And therefore what do they truly know about themselves except the conditioning that has been put upon them in this life?
I, Raphael, come to tear the veil from you - if you would see. But some desire not to see, preferring the layers of illusion whereby the world may still be a Disney World fantasy and they may practice denial at every hand and escape reality.
Is the future and the prophecy thereof too horrible for the eye to behold? Some shield the eye, for they will not take the concentrated Light from the heart of God, knowing that the Light will reveal the ugly as well as the beautiful. Others pray the Hail Mary, desiring that every nook and cranny of their beings might be exposed, for they desire to walk in the footsteps of the saints.
Our concerns are real and concrete. We look at disease that is rampant and getting worse. We look at epidemics, we look at AIDS and we wonder: When will the people become realists? When will they understand? When will they know that the food they have been putting into their bellies from birth to the present has been conditioning every organ of their bodies every day of their lives?
The path is scientific and you can follow it. But you must yet wean yourself of the desire to please the palate, to be surfeited in the pleasures of eating as a social activity rather than eating to nourish the brain, to sharpen the mind, to quicken soul awareness. It is wise to drink in the light and care for the body as a temple of the Lord even as you tend the flame that burns on the altar of the heart.
There is a path, and then there is another path. "There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof is the way of death"1 - not only the death of the body but ultimately the death of the soul.
You have been told that the soul is immortal. I tell you the soul is not immortal until she has bonded herself to her Lord, the one who is the Atman, the Higher Self, the Christ who lives within you. Therefore seek early to be the bride of that Christ and know of a truth that your permanent identity in God is won by your soul's conscious, determined union with her Lord.
If you will have a round and another round in the earth of surfeiting in the pleasures of a materialistic civilization, then have it. For God has blessed you with free will, and we will not condemn a living soul for his exercise of that gift. But we will instruct you as to your options and we will explain to you that there are indeed consequences for every wrong decision you make and every wrong turn you take on the "way that seemeth right."
Yes, we would instruct you as to what is the meaning of the end of the age of Pisces and the beginning of the age of Aquarius. For the karma of 25,800 years2 is coming full circle for earth's evolutions. This karma has been descending throughout the Piscean age. Therefore, God sent you his Son Jesus Christ to assist you in bearing this burden. But the hour has come and is full upon you when the Great Law does require that "every man shall bear his own burden."3 Thus, though your sins have been forgiven, yet you must now take upon yourselves what Jesus has borne for you for so long.
This karma is reaching its fullest intensity in the decade of the '90s and to the year 2002. Indeed, the karmas are coming to their logical conclusions - with definite consequences for those who set them in motion: Some souls are being raised unto the resurrection for their good works and some, such as the fallen angels, are facing a final judgment for their evil works; for they were given times and times again to repent of their misdeeds against the LORD and his Christ, and they would not.4
So, beloved, this earth is a crossroads. See the striking differences between peoples, between one nation and another. Citizens of a cosmos have been making their way here to find entrée into physical embodiment in order to fulfill the dates of their karma that they have made both here and in other planetary systems.
You yourselves are karmically tied to souls from across the solar systems and even from beyond this galaxy. Your karma is somewhat complex; and many of you are ancient souls who have come from other worlds to this planet, while others are young souls, having come not so long ago from the Great Causal Body of God into these lower planes.
You seek your First Love, who is the Lord of Life. You seek your twin flame. You seek the perfect union, and yet your karma stands between you and the very resolution you seek with the most precious parts of life, whose contact you have lost or let slip through your fingers. All of a sudden one is swept in one direction and one is swept in another, for karma takes us where it leads us and where we lead it. And karma is surely the guru of each and every one who, in matters great and small, has not commended his soul into the hands of God, the Great Guru of all.
Yes, karma becomes your guru when you leave the Mystery School of Eden and go not in the way of the path of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Karma becomes your Teacher. And if you do not have ears to hear or eyes to see and you do not listen to the speaking of God in your heart, how will you know the meaning of the lightness and darkness of your karma?
Well, if you listen to the prelates of the day, you will not even believe in karma! It is much easier not to take responsibility for actions of the near and ancient past. It is much easier to live as if there were no tomorrow and as if there had never been a yesterday - there had never been a cause that resulted in an effect.
And yet you call yourselves scientists!
Are you scientists of the matter universes only or will you become scientists of the universes of the Spirit? Will you decide to understand the laws of God, apply them to yourselves while you have your life and your youth and the ability either to make the decision to go here and there or to make the decision to enter into the inner spiritual path under the guidance of that God who lives within you?
These times are much more perilous than you imagine - both for the soul and for the nation. And it is a way of life in this nation to avoid pain and seek pleasure and, rather than deal in reality, to deal in the illusions and confusions that come from the mists of Neptune and cloud the mind. For the vast majority of the people do not wish to see reality. They do not wish to see their ends as the consequences of their beginnings. And above all, they do not want to take responsibility for their correct or incorrect exercise of freedom.
Well, we can tell you this - that the dispensation of the violet flame, given unto this earth through the sponsorship of the Ascended Master Saint Germain and Lord Zadkiel and Holy Amethyst and all who serve on the Seventh Ray, affords you the easiest way to balance your karma when you combine the invocation of the violet flame with true and sincere service to life dedicated to the glory of God, and not to the vainglory of the human ego.
There is great love in the hearts of millions in America and throughout the earth. There is great love to care for one another, for the sick and the poor and the homeless. That love in your hearts is a great gift. You have earned it. All good qualities you have have come to you because you have earned them.
And therefore in your discipleship unto the God of Love, you have indeed made progress in this and previous embodiments, and you bring to the equation of your present life much good and many positive momentums. And these will carry you through where civilization has failed to inform you of the precepts of the ancient adepts, the Sons and Daughters of the Solitude who walked in Atlantis, who presided in her temples of learning and science as well as in the temple of the violet flame.
There is, then, so much that we can give to you. Who among you will extend to us the cups of your chakras that we might heal them, that we might fill them, that we might write anew the message, the engram, the very code of your soul, so that you might decode it and therefore have the means and the magnet to find that other half of the Divine Whole, who is your twin flame?
I AM Raphael, and the Blessed Mother stands with me. We reach out to you in our deep caring for you and for the millions who know not the way to go and allow themselves thoughtlessly to express anger toward God, when they alone are accountable for the outcome of their lives.
So, beloved, in this hour we seal the earth in the Healing Thoughtform.5 And by that thoughtform, made up of the green, the blue and the white spheres, we seal many who suffer, who are in agony, who die of diseases that never should have been allowed to invade the body, that never should have been at all.
These things have descended because the people have a watered-down religion and they have not protected their souls and spirits and bodies, yes, from the venom of one Samael6 and other evil spirits who do go forth to spread these diseases to the torment of the children of God. And this is why it is written in Revelation: "Woe to you, inhabiters of the earth and of the sea, for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath."7
Viruses unchecked represent the wrath of fallen angels whose time is short, who move about seeking whom they may devour.8 See that they devour not your souls nor your bodies nor your brains! See that you retain the vessel of a sound mind and a sound body that Christ might descend into your temple. For I prophesy to you that in this age you have the ultimate opportunity to become God's own son or daughter in manifestation. Yes, you can attain the fullness of the mastery of the Christed ones who have gone before you - the ones anointed of the Light of the Son of God.
In an age of darkest night there is a Light shining, and that Light is the God-potential of every man, woman and child upon earth to find union with Christ and to rise to such a level in the resurrection spiral as to foresee a golden age and to see that golden age becoming physical in the earth.
Well, the earth does not appear to have a ghost of a chance of entering a golden age in the near future, if the way karma comes tumbling down is any measure of tomorrow. Alas, the vast majority of the people have not picked up on the wavelength of the violet flame nor have they communed with healing angels nor do they know that the power that God has vested in them is surely the power to save a world.
Millions of angels respond to the prayer of one child who kneels, taught by father and mother, to say his bedtime prayers. Will we not also respond to you?
Have we not interceded ten thousand times ten thousand to spare every one of you and millions upon the earth dire calamity? We have interceded! You have not known us as we have entered your households to care for you and your families, but you have carried on with your daily tasks and affairs without so much as a thought or a prayer in our direction.
So, beloved, we seek no credit for the work God has given us to do, for it is our lawful reason for being. But we seek your recognition of our presence in your midst and of the service we can render you in answer to your call. We want you to know our names, for our names in God are the keys whereby you can access our Causal Bodies of Light by a fiat you make unto us in time of crisis. Because you know our names you can say:
In the name of God: Archangels Michael, Jophiel, Chamuel, Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel, Zadkiel, Uzziel, come forth now! Save this city! Save this city and bind all forces of Darkness instrumental in this particular crisis.
When you give such a call, name the crisis, whether it be psychic or physical.
Yes, beloved, be prepared! Be filled with Light! And know that I, Raphael, am as near to you as the whisper of your lips in prayer. I have the listening ear and I have all of the so-called technology of the Spirit cosmos to respond to billions upon billions of souls. I tell you, the legions of angels are without number. You cannot number them, for God has created millions of angels to minister unto you!
Our Messenger has taught you the law of the science of the spoken Word. You have free will and the power of the Word itself; you can take dominion in this octave.
You have but to invite us to enter your life and we shall! And you will see impossible situations turned around! And therefore you will no longer be cynical and you will no longer confine yourself to a narrow worldview that comes upon you when you nourish only the mental body and you do not in fact increase the fire of the heart.
The fire of the heart is the key to the illumination of the mind to the wonders of God. These can surely become visible to you beyond the narrow band in which you carry out your daily existence. Life is a very narrow room when you limit yourself to your mental body, for you have a Deathless Solar Body and you have the Mind of God!9
There is absolutely no limit to what you can know and do if you will but bend the knee before your own God Presence, the I AM THAT I AM. Know, then, that keeping the commandments and obeying the laws of God are prerequisites to your receiving the dispensations of God.
Yet, we shun no one. And we help, to the fullest extent of the laws of God, all who will simply look up to the sun of their I AM Presence and say, O God, help me!
That is all you need to say. It is sufficient prayer. It allows the angels to enter your life and turn things around and set things right and direct you on your course to accomplish the mission that God has anointed you to in this hour.
In this moment, then, I give to you the Blessed Mother that you might hear from her directly what is on her heart.
This dictation by Archangel Raphael with Angels of Healing attending was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood Elizabeth Clare Prophet on Saturday, February 27, 1993, during a weekend seminar, How to Contact Angels - Your Guides, Guardians and Friends Part 2, held at the Skokie North Shore Hilton, Chicago, Illinois. The dictation followed the Messenger's lecture "How Angels Help You to Heal Yourself, Your Family and Friends." [N.B. This dictation was edited for print by the Messenger under the direction of Archangel Raphael.] Throughout these notes PoW is the abbreviation for Pearls of Wisdom.
My Mother Mary Medal Turned Gold
About a month ago a Mother Mary medal that I have had since I was a child turned gold. I had not been in the habit of wearing it because it was silver-colored. When I discovered it had turned gold, it had a profound impact on me. I felt it was a goad and inspiration from Mother Mary for me to try harder on my path of chelaship.
I had heard that people who make pilgrimages to Medjugorje are sometimes blessed with their medals or rosaries turning gold. By this little miracle in my life I saw clearly how our community is one with all other people of a mystical inclination. It also became more deeply impressed on me how everything that I could possibly need can be found in this community. It is not necessary for me to go here or there. We have the best of everything that counts right here.
I have been on staff for about fourteen years and with each passing year the baseline of happiness in my life goes up. It is very special to be part of a mystery school not only to experience blessings in my life but also to see transformations and miracles happening in everyone around me. The blessing of my medal turning gold is a physical reminder to me of all the miracles that happen here daily, seen and unseen.
The greatest miracle to me is the oneness of heart that we all feel with you, Mother. The miracle of your open heart gives our faltering hearts strength and brings us to the feet of the Ascended Masters, where all things are possible.
