 Illumination and Inner Sight

Excerpts from June 1954 address

I bring you greetings and blessings from the heart of the Royal Teton. I also bring to you the Flame of Love and Life which is our heartbeat and which becomes for you individually. Use it freely, command it as you will and let our life, mingling with yours, enable you to expand your individual consciousness until, beloved ones, you are restored again to your natural God Estate.

One of the gifts that comes with Illumination is the use of the inner sight. When you are privileged to see the Chalice of the Heart within which burns the Fire of Immortality (the spiritual garment of each individualization) then you, too, will love and reference life no matter in what form you may meet it. In response to love, that life will rush forth expanding and expanding its sphere of influence until every vibratory action, which, is the cause of the shadows existing within it is transmuted.  

Looking today upon the lights within your hearts, I AM eternally grateful for the privilege and honor of offering my service to you that you, in turn, may achieve the fullness of mastery over your own energies which flow to you so freely from the source which gave you being.  

One of the gifts which is ours to offer is a natural reverence for life. We are hoping through this instruction that you will achieve a far greater depth of perception of the magnificent gifts that the self-conscious ascended master intelligence and beings represent in themselves.  

Those who are the servants of life and are now dispensers of instruction are dedicated to the task of bringing you back to a conscious connection with your own divinity. This is done by opening the channels through which the direction, the gifts, the powers and the mastery which are God intended may be released into your use. These gifts are given not only because it is the desire and will of the Universal First Cause, but because it is essential, if humanity are to be helped, that some among you become again the masters of energy and vibration. They must become the master control of primal energy, which should never leap forward uncontrolled. It should pass in dignity into the thought, the feeling, the action or the word that blesses and enriches life.  

This is the training offered to the chelas who apply for instruction and to the aspirants, who enter within the retreat. They are all given an opportunity to contemplate the magnificent resources that lie within life itself. Accepting the gift of life, the earnest and sincere man or woman comes to a point where she or he determines within themselves that the only honorable thing to do is to turn to the Giver of that Life, to the Source that sustains it, and ask in humility for what purpose that investment was bestowed.  

The great surrender of self, the removal from the consciousness of the idea that life belongs solely to humanity to do with as one pleases, is an indication in us that we have arrived at the age of spiritual maturity. When one arrives at the Cosmic realization that the Source of all Life the great Eternal Mother-Father God must of necessity have some great purpose and design in mind, one will then commence to weave the energies of their own lifestream into fulfilling a portion of that God Design. At that time one's own heart tells them they are presently able to assist in developing such a design.  

Each man, woman or child upon this planet and all who are yet to come here have, despite the creation of shadows developed certain momentums, gifts and talents which can be offered on the altar to further the God Plan and the evolution of our system. Wise is that man, woman or child who offers their developed talents to God. Meanwhile, it is expedient that they endeavor to perfect the various instruments through which they work in order that they may be one day of greater service.  

These people of whom I speak are those who stood boldly forth before the great Source of Life and have asked that the energies of their individual lives be consecrated to the work of returning the earth to the beauty, the purity and the perfection which it knew when humanity first came forth from the Heart of God.
