St. Germain: Greetings, Cooperative Visualization (dictated to G. Innocente)

Dear friends of the sacred cause of freedom, I greet you in the name of the Ascended Jesus Christ. Thru his electronic light body do I extend My hand in holdy friendship, realizing that for you no activity can connect with your world of experience thru that Consciousness unless it be of God. For how many centuries has this great Brother protected the earnest seeking soul of man from the seen and unseen powers of evil thru his name and by his Presence! In those dark ages when the power of light was all but lost to the outer consciousness of man it was good indeed that the sign of the cross and the name of Jesus remained a force that could not be denied, and many thousands of good men and women owe the continuance of their spiritual lives to this watchful kindly Presence.

Today we are again in a new era of light. It is also a Day when the inner perceptions of the individual soul are tested against the full measure of truth and thru spiritual discernment they will find that "the fruit falls not far from the parent tree" nor "the Master's word and work from the Father's throne."

The two thousand year cycle of the Piscean Age governed by the Sixth Ray and known as the Christian Dispensation is drawing to a close, and as all cycles overlap, the sensitive inner ear and inner eye of the watchful have glimpsed the dawn of the new Day thru the vibrations of the Seventh Ray which are making themselves felt in the hopeful hearts of the forerunners of the new age.

-------------------------

The power to think that lies within the consciousness of man is one with the creative faculty by which the Godhead molded the unformed substance of the universe into stars, planets and systems of worlds. As soon as man thinks a thought a form is made. The degree of development of his mental body determines the clarity and perfection of the thoughtform.

The life which fills the thoughtform and makes of it a living, breathing, palpable presence is released thru the feeling body of the individual. The quality, nature and development of the feeling body determines the purity and strength of the energized thoughtform.

These creative centers of thought and feeling are energized by the group director in cooperative visualizations whether for the focusing of creative activities of the sacred fire, such as the cosmic fiery flame of freedom around the individual, group or nation, or the establishment of the mystic ring-pass-not which forms the protective shell around anyone's aura. The ability of the director to create a clear thought-picture and to stimulate the cooperative feeling nature of the assembly will determine the efficacy of this portion of the service.

Builders of form and angelic beings assist in this portion of the service. Into these thoughtforms are poured the actual substance and essence of the spiritual energies released from the blessings of individuals serving in their particular locations and gathered up by the Masters and the Silent Watchers of different localities who utilize these meetings toward this end.

El Morya: The Bridge Builders--I, II (January 1953, August 1953)

(dictated to G. Innocente) Beloved Chela,

In response to your many calls and to the sincere love of your heart I take this opportunity to assure you that I shall gratefully accept your invitation to be among your guests.

When any focus is offered to the Great White Brotherhood you can be assured it is utilized to the greatest possible extent at all times, even though the outer consciousness of the chela may not be always aware of the activity in which We are engaged.

The full understanding of the cosmic law regarding consciousness would do so much to illumine the blessed ones and make clear the mercy accorded Us when We were allowed to create a bridge between the outer consciousness of those choosing to avail themselves of its service and Our octave. The natural order is that each man must rise on his own consciousness into association with Us. Sometimes a lifestream offers to perform this service for others and over the narrow span of one silver cord flows the wealth of heaven into the many vessels waiting earnestly to receive it. How long such a dispensation may run is never revealed, for the harvest grown from the seeds thus sown is the measure of the impersonal cosmic law. Thus We endeavor to transmit the most important material in the time afforded Us, just as the wise commander of the army uses his lifeline for the necessities to keep the men alive and well.

Each man so blessed as to receive the friendship and love of the masters must grow from the seeds planted in his own consciousness and whenever possible We increase that planting wherever We see a possible harvest. Yours in service, M

Beloved Chela:

How grateful We are that you have chosen to blend the energies of your own Causal Bodies and lifestreams with the pressures of God light which We are focusing and directing from these humble centers thruout the mental and feeling consciousness of mankind at this time.

Wherever opportunity affords itself the Beholders of mankind's soul-light endeavor to create spiritual centers made up of the energies of available lifestreams, and thru them infiltrate the consciousness of individuals with a little more of the essence of truth, the love of liberty and the heart-desire for God liberation. It is a low and tedious process at best, but because of Our present dispensation We are able to proceed more rapidly owing to the combined energies of those who have come willing to sit at the feet of the master.

The raised attention of each individual carries his own life energies upward into the octave above that in which his outer consciousness generally functions. We on Our side of the veil direct Our consciousness downward and thru the medium of the attention of the minds of the students We literally tie Our own lifestreams into their worlds. Thus is a bridge of intelligent energy created--each prayer, aspiration, decree, song and thought of the students being another span allowing Us in turn to direct a corresponding ray downward.

At the beginning of such a cooperative endeavor the bridge is as gossamer as a spider's web and until the energies are directed by the leader in that upward arc We are forced to hold back the outpouring of Our energies which can be released only in response to and in proportion to the demand of the energies of the students. Therefore We can never be assured of exactly how much of Our light, healing, illumination, peace, comprehension and love will be released in any given meeting because the voluntary energies of the students form the conductors of these gifts from Our hearts. Can you not see how grateful We are for the presence of conscious chelas in any such group who understand the inner action of the law and not only throw the full strength of their own energies upward in constant, alert, controlled energy-waves but also thru direction project heavenward the more reluctant energies of those less trained in the spiritual significance of each class?

The blessed ones who come to hear the Word desire understanding and the gifts that will make the individual life more happy and at peace. The chela must understand that in return for the outpouring of the blessing from the masters the inner bridge is formed from the energies of the group and becomes the conductor over which the powers of the higher spheres flood forth thruout the entire atmosphere of the city, state and nation. If We are so fortunate as to have efficient cooperation, the blessing may be planetary as well as local.

Even as the musical instrument must be tuned and prepared to convey the perfection of tone, so must the chela prepare and tune up his individual aura prior to offering it as a conductor to give the best possible results to the cooperative group at any given time.

Then as the energies of the group are directed upward and as the healing currents are drawn downward, a tremendous surge of purifying energies does flow forth to adjust conditions in the mental, emotional, etheric and physical bodies of the students; the charge of energy is then released and carried by the angles of healing and mercy into the rest of the world.

I cannot emphasize too much what the drawing, focusing and directing of the energy-waves from a class which has been vivified by an ascended master presence can do for the entire world and its inner atmosphere. I would that I could draw the veil of maya aside and allow you to see its inner action, for I know it would spur you forward with great spiritual enthusiasm in your endeavors. Now you must rely on the sincerity within My words.

Some of the ethereal temples have never been externalized on the physical planes at all, others have been drawn forth thru the cooperative endeavors of incarnate lifestreams and then thru cataclysmic action or the natural dissolution of form in the decadence of civilizations they were wiped out and remain only in their etheric perfection.

One by one these temples were destroyed but the devas of love and light have sustained their etheric counterparts and they are still used as chalices thru which the sacred fire from the higher octaves is focused in the hope that mankind will again tune in to their vibratory action and draw individual rays of their energies into the physical atmosphere of Earth once again. Lovingly and gently yours, M

St. Germain: Cosmic Cycles

Great cosmic events also move in these gigantic cycles or circles, and the great Cycle governing the 14,000 year dispensation of the seven rays must also come to a close in the joining or welding of the First and Seventh Rays. This is why the great Chohan of the First Ray Master Morya and Myself as Chohan of the Seventh Ray with Our respective chelas are presently so closely allied in interest, purpose and endeavors.

This does not mean however that the other five chohans with their chelas are not also vitally interested in the glorious activities coming into being now which are characteristic of this ray, and the yet more magnificent ones that will be made manifest as we proceed into the full action of the new Day. As a matter of fact, one might call the dispensation of the Seventh Ray the Cosmic Harvest because it is really the gathering together or harvesting of the best endeavors of all the rays since the cosmic cycle's inception. it could also be likened to the final act of a great cosmic opera when all the efforts of the musicians and artista are presented in one glorious final symphony with all actors or participants onstage.

Every individual who has taken embodiment within this great cycle has an integral and active part in the activities of the Seventh Ray, and whether they are ascended or unascended will share in its ultimate glory. Under the auspices of this ray therefore an opportunity presents itself whereby every member of the race is invited at this time to put his or her shoulder to this great Cosmic Wheel and thus speed the day of its triumphant final endeavor.

During the coming 2000 year cycle the Earth will go thru a period of unprecedented activity along every channel of physical and spiritual endeavor, and every individual within its compass will be given an opportunity in the light of the new instruction to attain his mastery and thus harvest the fruits of his endeavors thru his many centuries of embodied service under one of the preceding rays. Every individual belonging to the planet regardless of the ray to which he belongs who did not attain his spiritual freedom up to this time will be given an opportunity to reincarnate during this Seventh Ray cycle and will be educated along spiritual lines, and thru his knowledge of the sacred fire will be able to consume the tares sown by the enemy, his lower self, and at the same time offer a bountiful harvest to his Lord.

It will be readily seen therefore that all of the seven chohans are vitally interested in the harvest of each individual under their care, and all great beings and powers of light who are connected in any way with the evolution of the planet are joining their forces under the auspices of the Great White Brotherhood--one grand endeavor to free the Earth and her people from the dark forces that have threatened to engulf her. We only await man's answer now to the call.

The close of this great cosmic ring will usher in a permanent golden age when the gods and angels and men will walk together in peace and harmony and the Earth will take her rightful place among the triumpant stars in God's firmament. Truly the time is not far off before the fulfillment of the prophecy "Eye hat not seen nor ear heard neither hath it enterted into the heart of man the things God hath prepared for them that love Him" will be made manifest before all men.
