Let the glory of the Lord appear in this hour! Let it illumine the chakras, expanding the petals, reinforcing, strengthening. Let the Holy Spirit descend upon you! For that Spirit does come as the Lord does come, as a thief in the night.1
You have called for the Holy Spirit. Let the chalice be holy. Let it be a sealed chalice. And therefore, let it be upraised. As the fire does quench the darkness, so the fire of the Holy Spirit descending into your temple surely is the sign of the coming of the Lord within you.
How terrible are the fallen ones in their temptations, in their aggravations and in the gnarling and the contorting of their minds. They would take from you swiftly and sometimes easily the momentum of the Holy Spirit you have gained.
Therefore, I reinforce our Blessed Mother's message that attunement, which equals at-one-ment with God, is the only safety outside the Spirit cosmos.2 This oneness with God can be accomplished by meditation and be mightily anchored by the gift of the science of the spoken Word. Thus, anchor your meditations with spoken mantra and note how physical is the fire that descends.
Yes, beloved ones, as the Holy Spirit comes to bless the meek and the lowly, that Spirit also comes to deliver the karma that is meted out by the Archangels. And thus, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse ride and continue to ride until the cycles of long millennia of karma-building in the earth are spent. As this century draws to a close, you are in the final hours of the ride of the Four Horsemen at the conclusion of the age of Pisces and the final hours of the physical descent of karma they bring.3
It is said there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.4 Those who weep and those who experience the gnashing of teeth, these are they who do not surrender unto the Holy Spirit, who do not guard the temple for the Holy Spirit and therefore find themselves in outer darkness. And in outer darkness, beloved, there is only blackness and despair.
So understand how bright is the Light of the Holy Spirit, how intense is the fire and how greatly you require that Spirit that you might fulfill your mission of the day and the ages.
I have been in mortal form so recently that some of the senators and congressmen who were there when I was yet unascended are still there, beloved. And, should you see me walking down the street, my apparel would almost be that of today, so recently have I been with you.
Therefore know that I understand every temptation of the mind and heart and soul. I know the types of people that are on earth - the great ones, the small ones, those who are utterly disenfranchised and have no Light of God, for they have squandered what Light they had and it has not been rekindled in them by any.
Yes, beloved, I understand the plight of the world and especially your world. I know the wrestlings of your soul. I know your desirings for God.
Ye well know that Christ is born at spring equinox and that Christ is ascended at summer solstice. Yet long ago El Morya and others determined that the celebration of the birth of the Christ should be at the time of winter solstice, for at this time of year we enter the dark night of the year, the dark night of the soul and the Dark Night of the Spirit.5 And so, on the twenty-fourth and twenty-fifth of December we celebrate the birth of the Christ Light as a counterbalance to the Darkness, which some try to cover over with merrymaking.
Understand, beloved, that as the hymns are sung and you give your decrees and all attend church, so there is the dispelling of the dark night of the soul. So it is an hour to rescue the soul from outer darkness. So it is an hour to receive the Christ.
I AM in the cosmic unlimited abundance of God. I AM in that Presence, beloved, whereby you can know the freeing of your soul from a darkness that is such a dark night that you cannot find your way unless you find one who has a candle.
Thus, meditate upon the candle before you.6 Meditate on the threefold flame of your heart. And know that as you will extinguish this candle at the conclusion of the service, so it is possible to put out the threefold flame, as so many upon earth have done.
It was indeed the Ancient of Days, whom you know as Sanat Kumara, who brought the physical fire to the earth and who came to restore and reignite the divine spark on the altar of being. Thus, that spark was sealed in the secret chamber of the heart, as you know. But, beloved, the world's angry ones and perhaps your own dweller-on-the-threshold have determined to break that seal and to put out the light. When they put out the light, they also put out the song. And where shall ye go?
Remember that forces of anger are abroad in the world, and this is why daily attunement with God and fierce calls to Archangel Michael for your protection are absolutely essential to your keeping the flame of Life as Keepers of the Flame.
You have met some who seem not to have the divine spark. You may know some here and some far from here who have lost the spark and are regaining it through their profound devotion. For in their heart of hearts, these souls have only one desire - to have that divine spark reignited again and then, through the reigniting, to discover the bonding to the Lord Christ Jesus.
All are at different levels of evolution. Yet if we all face the Sun from some point on the 360 degrees of the circle of life, we shall one day arrive - some later than others, but all shall arrive. It is when you turn your back on the Sun, beloved, that you see your shadow. And when you turn your back on the Mighty I AM Presence (the Sun of God) and on the Son, who is the Christed Self of your being, you may well go into deeper and deeper levels of outer darkness until you find yourself tumbling down the tunnels of the astral plane.
And so, blessed ones, consider that at this time of the year there ought to be a harvest of good works and accomplishments in your life wherein you have passed difficult initiations in true and full God-harmony; and know that it is also a time for the transmutation of negative karma in preparation for the new year.
I recommend you consider the signs in the heavens, the signs of the stars and the planets so that you might read what is coming upon the earth in the pivotal year of 1995. Be ready for the challenges and know that they will increase, they will accelerate.
Often, when there is great pressure upon you by lesser or greater devils and fallen angels, you succumb to the way out and you say: "I must remove myself from this place for a cycle. The cycles have changed. I have other things to do. I will go here, I will go there."
Remember, beloved hearts, you have a Christ conscious-ness and, as long as you have not slain your own dweller-on-the-threshold, who systematically moves against your Christhood, you yet have forces of Antichrist operating in your own temple.
Thus know, beloved, that in these dark days of the end of the Piscean age and the return of karma, you must hold fast - hold fast to the altar as you would hold fast to a rope or a life preserver in a raging sea. Therefore Peter cried out, "Lord, save me!" when he began to sink after the Lord had bidden him to walk on the water.7 And later, Peter said, "To whom shall we go, Lord? Thou hast the words of eternal life."8
Truly your path of victory comes by love. Love is the very core. And therefore I would speak to you of that core of life and of being. I will tell you why I serve, beloved.
I serve the one above me, the Ascended Master El Morya. I would not leave him for a moment, for he has saved my soul over thousands of years. He has raised me up. He trained me to be your Messenger and then he did train through me my twin flame. Yes, beloved, I would not leave the one to whom I owe my life.
Now then, I would not leave the chelas who have stood stalwart. I would not leave any of you who would stray as sheep from the Path. I will go after the lost sheep rather than stay with the ninety and nine.9 Yes, beloved, I would go after you, for you are my own. You have loved me and I have called you out from among many who have not been worthy.
The notion that in this hour of darkness in the earth and turmoil among the youth and warring among the nations I would leave my chelas - this is unthinkable! This I could not do.
For, beloved, what power does the chela have to sustain the great God-momentum of his Causal Body that will keep him at the level of Light he finds at the altar, where the flame of the ark of the covenant is ensconced in the quartz crystal?
Are you convinced, beloved, that if and when you take your candle and go out in the night because you think you are ready for "the next cycle," which will take you elsewhere - are you convinced that you will have enough candlepower to illumine the dark night of the Dark Cycle of returning planetary karma?
Yes, beloved, all have the responsibility of tending the flame on the altar of the heart, come what may. Each one of you is positioned somewhere on the ladder of time and eternity. And on your rung of the ladder, perhaps Jacob's ladder,10 you fulfill your responsibilities to your spiritual sponsors and the Ascended Masters above you as well as to the little ones who are climbing the ladder beneath you, following your example.
Think, then, of these things. Think, then, of how you will extricate yourself from your karma once you have left the altar I have built for you in this wilderness land. How will you balance world karma when you are in the world and far from the unfed flame?
Some are strong and can accomplish this well, and yet others who have perched themselves in the world do not even perceive that they are losing ground day by day. Blessed ones, your Messenger does surely know the ferocity of the forces of Darkness and how they would claw the very flesh from one's bones to take the soul from its lawful pursuit of everlasting life.
Now then, beloved, draw circles of light around yourselves and establish heart ties with the hierarchy of Light. For these ties connect you all the way back to the Central Sun, to Alpha and Omega. And when you maintain attunement with your Holy Christ Self, you are one with and a part of that lineage that descends even to the level of Padma Sambhava, the sponsoring Guru of your Messenger.
So, beloved, whatever the temptation, whatever the burden, remember this: The pressure of the forces of Darkness can become so great that without fervent prayer the chela might slink into the night and say, "I cannot deal with this. I must distance myself from the Path and from the altar of God."
Yet the Path is everywhere and there is a specific tributary of that Path that is right for each one. I do not say that there is only one right path, yet I speak to you of dispensations that I have been given so that I might sponsor you because I am an Ascended Master, that El Morya has been given so that he might sponsor you because he is an Ascended Master.
Rather than saying, then, that there is only one right path, I say, "Hold fast what thou hast received from above. Hold fast what thou hast received from below." For morsels of Truth from both heaven and earth are the leaven that leaven one's mind and one's being.
Thus I speak, as we enter the new year, of responsibility toward the hierarchy that is above and toward the hierarchy that is below. When we fulfill both, beloved, we are always in our right place and in our right path, wherever that place and that path might be on earth. So at any given moment in time and space there is only one right path, one right place for you.
I ask you now to see the brightness of the star of Bethlehem. It is the brightness of the Great Causal Body of our Lord Jesus Christ. Though your eyes are closed as you meditate on my words, yet you see a glory and a light far beyond what you have ever seen. The glory of the Lord and the glory of this light is the Presence of God with you always, is the Holy Christ Self with you always.
Sustain the oneness! Sustain the oneness of your God-free being! Sustain it, beloved, and thereby be strengthened day by day by day.
In Darjeeling I now blow out the candles on my birthday cake. [To be sure, I am bilocating!] I will not tell you how many thousands of candles are on this cake. But I will suggest that at some point there will not be a cake big enough for you to contain all the candles of your many incarnations. And at that point, beloved, you will sweep all of the tiny flames into one great flame, and that flame will signal the hour of your soul's ascension in the Light.
Cherish the future. Cherish the past. From the past you have learned and unto the future belongs your destiny.
Thus, enter in at the strait gate and follow the narrow way that leads to eternal life.11 And let all know that this is an hour of cosmic dimension when the gates of heaven are opened and many who are walking through will find themselves eternally one with God. Set the example for this. Set the example by being one-pointed and determined to finish your course with honor by never compromising your principles.
From my Causal Body I send blue lightning to separate you from your own unreality. This is my birthday gift to you, beloved. Wield this blue lightning daily by the sword of Archangel Michael.
Yes, beloved, I AM Real. And you are Real when you maintain the level of consciousness equivalent to that of your Holy Christ Self.
May God be with you as you fight the good fight and win the battles over the flesh.
I AM evermore the Ever-Present Guru.
This dictation by beloved Lanello was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood, Elizabeth Clare Prophet, during the Christmas Eve Candlelight Vigil, December 24, 1994, at the Royal Teton Ranch, Park County, Montana. Before the dictation, "The Glory of the Lord" from Handel's Messiah was played as the meditation music. [N.B. This dictation was edited for print by the Messenger under Lanello's direction.] Throughout these notes PoW is the abbreviation for Pearls of Wisdom.

There Is Only One Place to Turn in a Family Crisis
Recently I faced a family crisis. I think I feel like you must feel when students and chelas worldwide write you of their problems: There is only one place to turn and that is to God.
I always look to God for understanding, for strength, for hope. What is happening throughout this period is that even before I can reach moments of despair or prayer, God is already there, holding me up. There is a Presence about me and a fiat that envelops me before I can even get my prayer out:
"I live in eternity now! ... No time and space can mar my place, for this is the living will of God I AM. I AM it, and I know I know it!"
It resonates through my cells.
I thought back to where I had heard these lines, wanting to know who is the Presence that would not leave my side. Of course, I realized it's Lanello! (decree 10.20, "Here and Now, I AM the Victorious One!" by Lanello)
Did you know that I have been following Mark Prophet and Lanello around since I was thirteen? Everywhere he went I wanted to be. My parents didn't understand, and I didn't even really know in my outer mind why I wanted to go to Washington, D.C., Colorado Springs or Los Angeles whenever Mark did.
But then he took his ascension, laying down his life so that he could personally find me and guide me to my first conference and feed me when I was starving for the Teachings that my soul needed. I am one of Lanello's ten thousand, immensely grateful to have been found when I was lost and that he loves enough to hold me up through thick and thin.
I pray that I can love enough to give hope and a morsel of Teaching to those who are as needy as I have been.
Thank you, Lanello and beloved Mother, for the opportunity to serve and for reintroducing me to El Morya in this embodiment.
