Address by
Beloved Lord Buddha
August 1953
Beloved Children of the One Eternal God of Light and Life! How
magnificent is the intensity of the Light within your souls! That Light enables,
from within your own heartbeat, the petals of Spiritual achievement and
attainment to unfold from the tightly closed bud in which your Immortal Identity
has for century after century slumbered. It has awaited the kiss of the
Spiritual Sun that it might arise and, through the inner pressure of its own
Majestic Dignity, stand forth revealed, the Master Presence of God, choosing to
wear for a moment in Eternal Time a garment of flesh; to wear it lightly, and
move forward as an Emissary of the King of Kings, carrying Mercy, Light, and
Love to all manifest form.
I breathe in the fragrance of your own unfolding God Flame. Sweet is
its essence in my nostrils, for it is many, many centuries since I have had
contact with the outer consciousness of the peoples of earth. It is many
hundreds of years since I closed the book of my earth life and entered into the
heart of that Realm of Eternal Peace where it became my obligation,
responsibility and service to Life to draw from the Heart of the One Great
Father-Mother of you all, that Supreme Love by which universes and planets as
well as individual souls and selves are sustained.
Here in the Realm of the Cosmic, I served with little remembrance of
the world of form, drawing that Love, breathing in the perfume of the Eternal,
absorbing the Radiation of God himself and, through my own body, directing it
then into those who chose to be my Representatives, the dispensers of those
Spiritual Currents in the lower atmosphere of earth. Through the Beloved Lord
Maitreya, the Beloved Master Jesus, the Beloved Patrick, the Beloved Rama
Krishna, and other blessed and dedicated Sons and Daughters of God, I was
enabled to make the Nature of God felt. Around those sanctified ones were drawn
the lifestreams incarnate who wished to bathe in that One Presence. Within the
aura of those, my chosen, did the disciples and the chelas taste of the bliss of
Nirvana, the glory of Heaven, and learn something of the way thither. This was
as far as I, by Cosmic Law, was permitted to go in endeavoring to reach again
the evolution of which you are a part, until one night not so long ago when from
China there arose a call for Mercy that came from the hearts of unascended
beings, and made a note of sweetness through the cry of pain and agony which
represents the sound that the earth and her people release into interstellar
space. I heard that call for Mercy and on that very call, on the very music
created by that desire for compassion, I came back into the world of form. Here
I shall abide, endeavoring through my own humble radiation to give the
assistance of my own lifestream. May it enable each and everyone who has
professed by their presence with us a desire to become a wayshower, to earn that
consciousness of peace and balance that abides within the pursuit of the Middle
Way, and that infinite power and capacity to convey through the energies of
their own lifestreams the Quality and Nature of God to their fellowmen.
Throughout my service to mankind before and after my freedom, I have
stressed always the power of radiation as the greatest teacher, the greatest
pattern by which man might fashion his individual life. Words are cheap.
Millions and millions of words have been spoken and written by sages, saints and
teachers from time immemorial. Millions and zillions of words have been read by
earnest seekers and aspirants, td joined to the accretion in the mental body,
adding no whit to the Spiritual stature of the self. But, through the conducting
of the qualities of radiation which represent the Nature of the One Eternal God,
there is always a way and means by which the millions and billions that belong
to this evolution may not only be touched but inspired and awakened from the
soul sleep of the ages and again encouraged to place their own feet upon the
Path and walk in serenity, in dignity, in balance, and in peace into the Self
Mastery which is pre-ordained for all evolving life.
Looking at the descending stream of Electronic Life which forms your
heartbeat, the most exquisite melody, the most Divine Music of the Spheres is
incorporated in the release of those pure electrons that enter into your heart
with such rapidity that millions and millions and millions of them are radiated
forth from your body in the matter of one second by mortal count, and every
electron comes to you with a song. It comes to you in exquisite beauty of form,
containing within itself a pattern which is indicative of your own
Individualized God Self. A star, a cross, a dove, a flower, beautiful beyond
limit is within everyone of those electrons. If they could only be suspended in
their descent for a moment, that your fleshly eyes could look upon them! Within
everyone of these electrons is all the potential power by which the Master Jesus
healed the sick, raised the dead, transformed darkness into Light, and himself
manifested the Mastery of the Ascension, in the physical presence of 500
incarnate lifestreams!
Look at that Stream of Light, and feel for an instant the potential
power that flows through you. Oh, not once in a 24-hour period, not "once in a
lifetime," as you say in your world of form, but every instant millions of those
electrons qualified with that infinite power pass into the control of your
mental and emotional body, and are absorbed greedily by those inner vehicles,
pressed into distorted form, externalized into your own aura, and there remain
to be redeemed by your own conscious endeavor one day.
I would like to charge your consciousness with the realization of
the power that flows through your heart, containing within itself all the power
by which the Universe was created, by which the stars are held in their orbits,
and the whirling motion of the planets is sustained in rhythm, and the forward
progress of the Galaxy is directed through Universal space. Feel that, oh
Beloved Friends! There is your open door to Freedom! There is your healing,
infinite and complete, without requiring that you bend the knee to any man.
There is the teacher which will unfailingly direct the intellect and move you
forward in the right path through the use of your energy, while yet you remain
in the world of form. There is the actual substance which may, at your own
discretion, become manifest as the requirement of any hour, for it is
intelligent, it is obedient, it is pliable, it is ceaseless in its flow, and
there is no limit as to how much you may draw or how you may use it.
I am told by the Brothers that your lifestreams are interested in
the blessing of the Elemental Kingdom. It gives me pleasure to point out to you
the obedience that is within Elemental Life, for within that obedience is the
key to your conscious control of substance and form. Oh, this great primordial
life that fills this Universe is the Body of God Himself, which flows
ceaselessly from the Great Central Source of this System. It is elemental, but
intelligent life. It is directed by the Great Father of Light Eternal, to
respond and obey the consciousness which abides within the hearts and minds of
man. This blessed elemental substance, therefore, becomes the servant of your
thinking and feeling self, and rushes instantly into the obedient form of that
which your mind designs out of the universal life. Then, as your feelings pass
through it, it becomes a breathing entity that lives because you have invested
it with the power of your own qualified energy.
Beloved Ones! In the use of these Powers of the Sacred Fire, can you
not visualize and feel this Light? Let us take for example, your Ring Pass Not
which in India is used so freely, and which now is coming into use to a limited
degree in the Western World. As you within your mind consciously desire the
protection from the passing vibrations of the mental and feeling world of
mankind, you immediately set up a magnetic pull upon elemental life, and
millions and millions of tiny little beings, so infinitesimal that many of them
could sit upon the head of one of your pins, respond to that magnetic call and
endeavor to outpicture the thought form which you hold of a Tube of Light. They
draw around you, standing shoulder to shoulder to enfold you within that living
Tube of Light. That Tube, dear friends, is made up of living intelligences who
sacrifice their freedom to dance in the sunshine and play in the grasses, that
they may be for you a mantle of protective force. Have you thought that through?
When so lightly you say, “Enfold me now in my mighty, magical Electronic Tube of
Light,” have you thought that intelligent life has chosen, in obedience, to
relinquish its freedom and to stand in the questionable safety of your aura? Yet
that is so! These blessed beings at your direction, form a wall and with their
own bodies repel and press away from you the thoughts and feelings that flow
through the lower atmosphere of the psychic and astral realm which forms the
habitation of your flesh.
Then, perchance, if you be endeavoring to experiment with this
protective power, you may choose to change the color of this blazing Tube of
Light. Through thought force you think of beautiful, electric blue. You know
that is the protective power of Beloved Morya's Ray. As your very thought goes
forth, every one of these glorious electrons, little Beings of Fire, wearing
shimmering robes of Light and holding often within their hands tiny wands of
power, immediately become electric blue; and so they stand, until again your
thought changes and you call for the pink of Nada's peace, and they clothe
themselves in that pink, and radiate it out to give protection.
Oh, beloved ones, there is so much you can experiment with through
the creative power of your own thought and feeling in the knowledge that
elemental substance is intelligent it is responsive, it is obedient and it is
delighted to do for you that which is in agreement with the Divine Plan.
How many electrons do you imprison in the course of a day in forms
of distortion? Then do you see that when your thought and feeling forces focus
together as they do in a cooperative group, or in your own private application,
that thought force draws the electrons and the elementals into constructive
patterns, and they rush to obey, for they would much rather be incorporated into
your Tube of Light, or into the surging Flame of purifying power that blazes
through you to transmute your transgressions, than they would be to form a
battering ram of anger or jealousy, hatred or resentment, which you drive and
drive and drive against a person, place, condition or thing, battering their
very heads and bruising their little bodies while they are incorporated in those
vicious vortices of thought and feeling forms. Yet, because their law and their
life is to render obedience to man, they cannot let go.
You form a group of mankind interested in the elemental kingdom. For
this reason, I choose to draw the veil aside and show you how magnificent may be
your service, how lightly you have Tube of Light. That Tube, dear friends, is
made up of living intelligences who sacrifice their freedom to dance in the
sunshine and play in the grasses, that they may be for you, a mantle of
protective force touched even the periphery of the great activity which may yet
be manifested through you as individuals, and collectively. In the realm of the
astral or the psychic, there are imprisoned in forms which I shall not describe,
so many countless billions of electrons - elemental, intelligent beings. It is
your opportunity to release them and let them go back into the heart of the Sun,
back into the Source from whence they came for you, too, have been among those
who have imprisoned them. You may be their redeemer! Then, as you render that
service, and as the inner realms in which mankind move are freed from those
pressures, again will come that lightness, buoyancy and happiness which was
known in the early ages before the effluvia and mist of thought and feeling of
human creation dimmed the Light of the Spiritual Sun, clothed your spiritual
faculties in dullness, and made it impossible for you to longer see and talk
with the Brothers and Sisters who are the Guardians of this race, and who are
the Protecting Presences from the Ascended Master Octave.
We do not dwell for any time upon the discords of mankind, lest
those of you who are sensitive, eager and desirous of serving good, should
become self-condemnatory, because of the part you have consciously or
unconsciously played in imprisoning life. However, in order to be intelligent in
the service which you have offered, we must show you the opportunity that lies
within your call and application. Then, the more joyous and glorious is your
opportunity, as you couple visualization and worded decree with the invocation
of the Sacred Fire, to create out of the Universal, Temples of Light and Focuses
of Flame which shall for all Eternity remain as a living memento to your life in
physical form.
Oh, blessed ones, the Power of the Creative Fire within you is so
much more intense than you can yet conceive to be possible. Take a group of this
number and let them join together, and at the direction and inspiration of the
leader, create a thought form which would be a benefit to a group, to a
locality, to a nation, to a planet, even to a Master like our Lord Sanat Kumara.
As the electrons and elementals filled in your thought form and made of it a
living, breathing being, one of the Great, Mighty Angels and Devas might choose
to ensoul it, enter it and sustain its light, wearing it as a garment until
accomplishment of that for which it was created, could be manifested. It has
been done often.
You do not know the power that is within your own personal blessing.
For instance, many a time, when I walked along the dusty roads in India, when
men and women in sore distress of the outer senses came into my Presence, I
rejoiced in the glorious opportunity of invoking a blessing. Many a time as I
stood and turned my attention to the God of us all, I felt the sweet onrush of
that power which came from heights inconceivable through my own feeling world,
and surged out into the body and consciousness of the supplicant. Many are the
times I have seen an Angel enter into that blessing and go with the one who had
asked for it as he walked again back into his own individual orbit.
Oh, this Universe is filled with Angels, Devas and Beings pressing
earthward, endeavoring to find an opening through some heart who chooses to call
forth the Blessings of God upon the suffering. They rush through the opening
which is made through your thought, your feeling, and even your simple worded,
"God bless you." It is not just this human vehicle which you are, which says
that word or that phrase. It is the release of the Infinite Power of the
Universe, eager and desirous of enfolding the one who requires that blessing. Do
you see? You are holding the key to the universal blessings of the Great Cosmic
Christ within your own worded expression, your silent gesture of benediction,
your thought and your feeling.
I have taught for centuries through the power of radiation, and not
through the spoken word. I have endeavored as I have studied your consciousness,
to give you in some small measure a way and means by which you too may become
radiating centers and, connecting with the Feeling of the Ascended Masters, let
that flow forth through your own energies to bless life. Is it a fit balance
that the Music of the Spheres that enters into the hearts of men with every
heart beat, should go forth again in a scream of pain, a cry of agony and
distress? Is it not rather the paramount requirement of the day that the energy
that enters the heart in purity, be blessed in love and return to the Universe
in a great Anthem of Thanksgiving for the opportunity of the use of life?
How beautiful is the soul that raises its heart to God in gratitude
for the Gift of life, of intelligence, for the opportunity that lives within the
constant electronic flow of energy into the heartbeat. What could you do without
Life? How could you enjoy your friends, your families, your associates? How
could you enjoy the beauties of nature and all the glories that have made your
experiences on this earth pleasant, if it were not for that flowing Essence
which is Life? Father, forgive man that he desires sometimes to shut off the
flow of Life, that he is embittered because life in its great kindness and
mercy, has considered him fit to abide within the chalice of his physical
garment. For know you this, with no uncertainty, while the Presence of Almighty
God sustains a physical form, there is a design and plan which can through that
form be externalized for the blessing of all. At the very instant the God
Intelligence no longer sees an opportunity to expand some portion of Its God
Plan through that form, the life flame is withdrawn. There is no happenstance in
this release of life that priceless, precious gift which contains within itself
the power to become Master. It is an eternal proof of the wisdom and kindness of
the Universal First Cause that chooses through you, each one, to manifest more
of the glory of the Kingdom.
I have stood in that Kingdom. I have stood in the Presence of the
God who made you all. I have gazed at the exquisite perfection of that Being,
and, as I come again to earth, I shall with every cell and fiber of my Being,
endeavor to convey to those who choose to listen, the nature and love of that
God.
I thank you, beloved Children of God, for the unfolding Flame of
your own Divinity, for the strength within you that has brought you into our
Presence, for your love of Mercy and Compassion for the rest of life. I thank
you for your sensitivity to the presence of the nature kingdom, and I assure you
that those who love elemental life will know peace in their own bodies, harmony
in their minds, and supply within their own governing use and control, as they
continue to bless that kingdom which has given them not only the physical form,
but the subtle inner bodies as well. Even your Electronic Body is made up of
tiny electrons, little beings drawn from the Sun, who gather around the Flame of
Love in the Heart of your Presence, and forego the Freedom of the Realms of
Light to provide that shining vestment of your Immortal I AM Presence.
God bless you.

NEW AND
IMPORTANT
The Healing
Outline
OUR GENTLE READER:
By this time, you are most likely aware that
two lovely Sponsors for the year of 1954 will be our Beloved Master Morya and
Beloved Mary, the Mother of Jesus. In order to get the Healing Activity (which
is so much a part of her service to life all thru the centuries) started as soon
as possible, She asked the Beloved Sanat Kumara for permission to begin these
short healing services (they take about 20 minutes to use) either before or
after the regular Healing Service on Tuesday evenings. She was granted this
permission and there has been prepared under her supervision, a "suggested
Outline" for such a service. This is now available for mailing to you, if you
desire it, at $.25 per copy. Please send stamps if your order is for less than 4
copies.
If you have no such group as yet, perhaps you would
be interested in holding this short service yourself, either each morning before
beginning the day, or at night before retiring, just so you go thru it once in
every 24 hours. You will enjoy it and her great Healing Power is most surely
felt.
The Manager
