The Masters of Wisdom Speak
On the Miracles of Resurrection
MAHA CHOHAN
Within life itself is the power of resurrection,
of renewal, of survival and resuscitation. The Kingdom of Nature, through which
I Am privileged to serve, lives in obedience to this natural gift and power. By
its use, every species sustains itself for the blessing, nourishment and benefit
of the human kingdom. The glorious flowers, the verdant life-pulse manifest in
the springtime are the proof of the "possibility" of resurrection. May mankind
soon awaken sufficiently to this self-evident truth written across the face of
the earth they inhabit... and may they draw the resurrection currents through
their own souls to recreate the glory, the perfection, the beauty and mastery
which they had in the beginning before the world itself was.
EL MORYA
As the seed holds within itself the pattern of
the full flower, so does the Sacred Heart of man hold within itself the pattern
of his Divinity. The forces of nature and the seasons of the year blend their
gifts and powers to the development, expansion and sustenance of that pattern
through nature. Thus, also do spiritual forces, powers, activities and
intelligent God Beings pour forth definite, specific blessings which are an
impetus to the development of the Divine Pattern within mankind at certain
rhythmic seasons.
When
the Resurrection flame is directed through
nature
by the Lord Maha Chohan, mankind may magnetize its
Life-giving essence and draw it through the latent God powers within his own
soul,
if
he
will.
KUTHUMI
As the wise gardener and farmer do all within
their power to prepare the earth, and open their hopeful plantings to the
life-giving forces of nature, so do we endeavor always to create and sustain
through the consciousness of mankind the most beneficial atmosphere and then
await the flowing of the spiritual currents which stimulate the awakening of the
dormant God nature and its ultimate fulfillment in God Mastery and God Freedom.
We are but the tending Guardians, relying on the God POWER TO DO THE ACTUAL
WORK.
THE VENETIAN
There is only One Power by which man may develop
and mature his Divine Pattern, and that Power is of God. Even the Great
Brother, whose name and service we honor at this Holy
Season, has said "I, of myself, can do nothing... it is the Father
within who doeth the works." The Guardian Spirits, The Angelic
I
lost, the Cosmic Beings, and the Spiritual Hierarchy BUT PREPARE
THE SOUL TO RECEIVE
THE IMPETUS FROM THE GOD WHO MADE IT. As the farmer does not claim to have
created the harvest, neither does the Hierarchy claim to have
created
the God-Free Beings, but rather to have worked in the
Father's Vineyard, tending the souls within whose very selves lies the pattern
of Divinity. We can and do create the AURA where sanctity is developed. We can
and do stimulate the soul to MAGNETIZE the God Currents. We can and do form a
pattern of what each intelligence may, in himself, express. That is as far as
the Ascended Master service goes. It is the "inward search" of the self that
yields the harvest of manifest works.
SERAPIS BEY
The man who applies to a Seat of Learning in
order to become proficient in some art, science or other highly specialized
skill, recognizes the self-evident truth that those who have already mastered
the natural laws governing such developed talents and capacities are the natural
teachers, from whom he can benefit. He does not worship the teacher, but shares
the teacher's consciousness, makes of it his own, and working through the shared
instruction comes to like proficiency. It is equally true of the student upon
the spiritual path. When he applies for more knowledge than the world can give,
the Law opens the door by which he may enter into association with those who are
Masters of the particular phase of spiritual endeavor which has drawn his
interest. The Master will at all times turn the student back to the development
of his own consciousness. He will share the understanding by which he attained,
but he will never allow the student to lean upon him for accomplishment of his
own individual development. Such a student loves, reveres and honors
his Teacher but
worships only and always
the God that lives within them both
(Guru and chela).
HILARION
When a man desires to expand the Divine Pattern
through his own soul, he magnetizes Spiritual
Currents which nourish and develop
those slumbering spiritual centers and
arouse them to active expression through the outer
consciousness. I well remember the
response of the Christ to the magnetized
energies of my world, as I
walked the road to Damascus, intent on doing
right
as I saw it. The sincerity of my motive invoked the Presence of the Living
Jesus Christ and in an instant, I saw
right and seeing, my
soul embraced that Presence and it became for me the stimulus to the development
of my own Christ in like manner. Thus, through the Spiritual Sun of Jesus'
Presence my own God Pattern was stimulated, developed and externalized,
and so may it be for you!
(One of beloved Hilarion's embodiments was the
apostle Paul.)
JESUS
Through the kind and gracious assistance of our
Lord Maha Chohan, I was enabled to magnetize the spiritual currents of the
resurrection which flow through the earth and resuscitate the Nature Kingdom in
the Springtime. These same currents are
equally available
to mankind desiring to make his soul MAGNIFY THE
LORD. It is pitiful indeed that the fragrant, gloriously colored blossoms upon
the fruit tree
do
MAGNIFY the Spirit of Life, and the souls of men pass through each Easter Season
with so little of the New Life expressed through their nature and their presence
in this world of form.
SAINT GERMAIN
Every man has his own Easter, when the
soul-awakening from its long sleep-stretches its arms out toward its God and
invokes the life-giving currents of the resurrection to re-vitalize the Divine
Pattern that has lain dormant through the centuries. As surely as the fruit tree
shares in the miracle of a New Birth, so surely does every soul so invoking the
Resurrection Flame share in the Second Birth and become a full flower in the
Garden of the Spiritually Elect, the God-Free Spirits who are externalizing the
Will of God through flesh and through spirit.
I have known that
EASTER, and you shall
know it too, one day when the longing of the soul for Light is greater than the
clamor of the personal self for survival at the cost of delayed Mastery.
