"THE SEVENTH RAY" BELOVED FRIENDS OF FREEDOM:

I greet you, each one, in the name of Freedom to all Life! When once you are privileged to see and experience through your own feeling nature, the joy that is within life when it is set free into its natural estate, you too will be so grateful for the opportunity of walking through the world of shadow and, with the Magic Wand of your own God Life, dispelling those shadows, and allowing imprisoned life to rise again to fulfill its God Destiny! 

No one really likes to be a "jailer" and yet all unascended beings are, to some extent, imprisoning life within the very structure of the flesh form, as well as within the distorted condensations of the inner bodies, and beloved people of earth know not how to release that imprisoned life within themselves, nor how to unseal the tomb of matter within which smolders the spark of Divinity! 

It is to bring this knowledge to you who have signified a desire to free life that I come! I come gratefully, for the Presence of many sons and daughters of Freedom who, through the voluntary cooperation of the outer selves, choose to assist me in setting life free, greatly accelerates the coming of the New Era of God's Freedom when all incarnate spirits will walk in Freedom's Robes, and all incoming, lifestreams be welcomed to opportunity, not to "serve a sentence" meted out through past iniquities consciously or unconsciously committed by the groping soul! 

The PRESSURE OF ENERGY which is a Cosmic Cause, and which any of us embody, is so tremendous that it cannot be stayed once it is set into motion. In August of the year 1934, when the beam of Arcturus struck the earth, the Era of Freedom began. It ushers in a minor cycle of 2000 years which, as you know comes under My Personal Direction, and it also completes a Major Cycle of the Maha Chohan's service to the earth. 

In our service, the CAUSE and its EFFECT are the important issue, and not so much "who accomplishes the actual service," although of course the merit goes to the lifestreams who are the Open Door for such accomplishment. As this Onrushing Christ Power surges through the Channels prepared for its dispensation, lifestreams are stirred and respond to the vibration, and join such a Cause. You are among those who have so responded... Circumstances, of which you are partially aware, having risen whereby the onrushing Christ Power was not given full Freedom to act through the lifestreams, we could not stop, but must needs proceed to take advantage of the momentum gained and through those able to grasp the Vision of imparting the knowledge and translating knowledge into fact, continue to serve our Cause, to set All Life Free… in every kingdom! Freedom is the Keynote of the New Day, not license to indulgence but conscious, illumined free use of Life contributed voluntarily to a common cause! 

Countless tons of energy have been invested by the Beloved Brothers and Sisters in the Ascended Master Realm to convey the consciousness of God to the uplifted consciousness of the student body. The dissemination of this knowledge could have greatly accelerated the progress of the New Age, but without "breaking bread" the hungry could not be nourished, and as it is through the consciousness of mankind that Freedom must come, we have endeavored to find some individuals willing to "open wide" the flood gates, and allow us to release our word freely to all who choose to accept and utilize it according to the dictates of their own individual conscience. 

To this end, I have made some comments upon the Law, and written some simple words upon the application of that Law and through the kind and gracious assistance of an old heart friend, these words have been drawn together in the book which we present to you as a simple guide of a friend. 

Remember the fullness of the Law of Love of Life... and Love is an Activity... in which the loving one chooses, not for duty's sake, but for Love's sake, to engage the energies of life in setting imprisoned intelligence and substance free from the distortions that have bound it through the ages. It is only free, joyous, loving, unrestricted service that shall raise the planet. The world has had the bitter ascetics and fanatics of every religion since the "fall of man" and yet the earth is not free, and only an occasional son or daughter slipped from the wheel of birth and death through tremendous, individual conscious endeavors. 

What the MASTERS give to you is counsel, if you ask it. Love always... and full freedom to incorporate the energies and talents of your lifestreams as you are prompted through your own heart prayers and contemplations in service to your brothers and sisters. There are some among you who desire Freedom's Way, else you would not be here, having broken the bonds of superstition and fear, and walked into the sunshine of God's Love and assurance of Eternal Life. To you, we give the opportunity of walking with us now, and to you individually I give full freedom to walk as you will knowing always we are available for counsel, and that our Love is ever with you upon Life's Way.

Yours in loving, humble service to Life, "I AM" 

SAINT GERMAIN

FOR COLUMBUS DAY  

DEARLY BELOVED FRIENDS OF MY HEART:

From the cramped quarters of a cabin no larger than a small platform, whose seams had sprung through the unequal battle with the relentless seas, I looked through the fogged porthole at the green islands which rose like ephemeral shades out of the morning mist and were the first tangible manifestation of the new and virgin world that my heart had been seeking for so many centuries... a land rich in natural growth and free from the blood of men's petty strife’s where Freedom might walk in spotless robes, his crown rest on every head, his love alive in every heart. 

This natural theatre I was shown at Inner Levels and I was promised that it would be waiting when the hearts of men desired Freedom more than life itself, if such men could be found or inspired with the desire to enjoy such a God Quality. With this promise, and only my Heart Flame as compass, I incarnated in the foothills of Genoa and the certainty that such a land existed grew in me as my body grew to manhood. Like David Lloyd, I had only the conviction that "somewhere" such a land existed, but the voluntary bonds of earth's forgetfulness made it necessary for me to develop from within myself its possible location and then convince a reluctant Patroness to sponsor my idea, with nothing to offer which might back up conviction but my own inner faith in the reality of the New World. 

The driving force of a God idea when pitted against the resistance of man's ignorance, superstition and unbelief is what makes the spark of the spirit fire into a Flame by which accomplishment is manifested. After the path to this New World was opened, other men desiring Freedom followed, while I yet worked from within my own karmic chains, ever toward a day when this land might be enjoyed by a new race of spiritually mature men and women. I endeavored to write of this in "The New Atlantic," again affirming my faith in a World Brotherhood. 

Then, I was offered my Ascension by the Cosmic Law before that vision was accomplished. If it had not been for the counsel of the Goddess of Liberty and the Great Divine Director, I do not think I would have accepted my Ascension before this New Era was established. They promised me that among the lifestreams yet bound by karmic restrictions would be found those who might assume my interest in a Land of the Free and become my body and my very self in carrying out these plans, completing the work which I had so earnestly and sincerely begun. 

You who are here this morning and others of the early American Patriots, are those who stood before the Karmic Board, and offered to represent me if I were to take the Ascension at that time. The Lords of Karma accepted your offer so I owe my Ascension in some manner to your kindly assistance. Some of you were with me that autumn morning when the Santa Maria rode anchor off the West Indies, and all are friends of my Heart from ages that have been. Do you wonder that I love you that I bless you that I thank you and stand with you again? Just know that the Heart of Freedom moves with you wherever you shall abide. 

"I AM" always your Friend, and Companion on Life's Way... SAINT GERMAIN
