Excerpts of an Address by

BELOVED MARY MOTHER OF JESUS

December 1953

Beloved children, knowing the priceless quality of life, having stood in the Free Realms and seen the heart of the Sun itself generate and send forth the electronic light essence which forms the silver cord of every man, woman and child belonging to this evolution, we have a great respect for consecrated life which passes through the consciousness of the individual and receives the blessing of the voluntary energies of that one's own thought and feeling, going forth into the Universe carrying a greater blessing than that which came from the Heart of God in its primal essence. 

You are the lifestreams who consecrate life, and who have created out of that consecrated life beautiful thoughtforms. Into each such form is woven the electronic pattern of your own particular lifestream. Into these forms are woven your songs, your colors, and your tones. 

The Ladies of Heaven are tremendously interested in the expansion of the Healing Activity through unascended beings, because healing is primarily an activity of feeling. Healing is conveyed through harmonious feeling, and a feminine activity in the Ascended Master Octave always gives a pressure of feeling, of comfort to life, preceding the entrance of the actual healing elixir which performs the service. 

As you are gathered here, we are endeavoring to build into this forcefield our combined radiation. It is a beautiful electric blue, and it is extending out over your entire city. Through this forcefield the healing essence-which is our gift to Life, our momentum of service may enter into the consciousness of men, women and children who are praying tonight, who are calling to God for assistance and who require healings of mind and of body. 

Will you, therefore, join your energies with ours in bringing to your mind's eye and consciousness the memory of those lifestreams whom you know can benefit by such healing currents. Will you feel the fullness of our Love flow to them! 

When you have served that purpose, will you feel then the impersonal healing currents flowing throughout the entire world, particularly to those lifestreams who know not how to pray, who have seemingly lost faith in God, who are in desperation of mind, soul and spirit, and who require the faith of some other unascended being to hold them within the Heart Flame of our Presence until we can anchor the energy of our worlds into theirs. 

Beloved ones, those of you who love God, those of you who believe in the Hierarchy are blessed indeed, for there is a portion of your world that is always connected with us. There is a part of your consciousness, a nook or corner some place wherein is always tucked the memory of our work, our names, our love; but there are many millions who have no belief, no trust, no hope for a life beyond the grave, and who live day after day the weary round of existence, hoping for the annihilation which, they believe, comes at so-called death. It is for these people that I implore you to pray, to make the call on their behalf, to keep the Spark within them alight until that hour when we may prove ourselves, through you, to them. 

You see, we have a double purpose, we are preparing you to be ourselves manifest in form. We are preparing you to step down our radiation, our consciousness, our qualities, and our miracles of Perfection. We are trying to hold the masses until you are ready. The great mercy of Life is such that there will always be the advance guard who will be in contact with the Presence and the Person of the Masters, and then the advance guard in turn through the Representative of the Masters carry the instruction to the masses. This conserves our energy, and it renders the service of mercy in tempering the Light and Fire of our Beings to a point where it is comfortable for them to receive it. 

There is so much in graded radiation which mankind, and even the blessed students, do not yet understand. For instance, around the Beloved Sun itself stand the twelve great Beings who represent the Virtues, the Nature of God. They have been in the outer world represented as the Signs of the Zodiac, but in their original perfect representations, they are Beings of tremendous power. It is their great privilege and honor to soften the radiation and the glorious splendor of the Sun God and Goddess, so that even the Angels, the Cherubim and the Seraphim can receive that radiation into their Beings without being overwhelmed by its Presence. 

Then the Cherubic and Seraphic Beings, the Archangels, in turn, soften the radiation of that splendor, and carry it from sphere to sphere, onward on its outward course to the periphery of the Universe. We, the Hierarchy that stand around Sanat Kumara, and represent the Guardians of mankind, again take into our own bodies that blazing Light, and temper it according to our own nature and offer it to the chelas who have become the most highly developed consciousnesses incarnate. These chelas throughout the world, in turn, embody our Nature, embody our Light, share our Consciousness, our Plans and Designs, and then carry them to those lower on the ladder of evolution. Do you see? 

In this manner the great glory of the Godhead, the Divine ideas, the exquisite perfection of the Eternal, is gradually expanded and its Light, as it passes from sphere to sphere, is clothed in the atmosphere thereof, in the bodies of the Intelligences that dwell within it, and stepped down to a point where those in the sphere below may enjoy it without being overwhelmed by its presence. 

The Beloved Gabriel spoke to you of the fear that is aroused in the atomic consciousness of mankind at the visitation of the Angelic Host, and that is, unfortunately, a fact. The tremendous concentrated power of the Archangels, the Ascended Masters, and those Beings who have cosmic momentums of Light, shatters the emotional body of the unprepared. 1t also has a stirring effect on the slowly vibrating physical form. It would neither be kindness nor mercy for us to inflict such a shock upon the mankind of earth without the preparation required. It is that preparation in which you have been engaged through the past years, and the reason for which these groups have been formulated at the present time, to prepare those who wish to meet us in the Upper Chamber and eventually stand in the Master's Presence. 

I, myself, in my life's investment in Nazareth, know well the experience of dwelling with the living Presence of the Angelic Host. Before I took embodiment, beloved ones, l had studied in the Temples of Nature, and I had studied in the 'Temples with Beloved Raphael and Gabriel, and the other Members of the Angelic Host, and I had become a Master of sorts in the control of my energy. 

When our Beloved Lord Maitreya, standing in the exquisite beauty of his Light Body, described to us the Mission of the lifestream who was to come to the earth, and who was to draw through his flesh, his emotional, mental and etheric bodies, the Perfection of God as an example to mankind, we were all fired with the enthusiasm which is so much a part of the Inner Spheres. You, too, have experienced that enthusiasm. You, too, have risen as a man to volunteer to be a part of a great drama. You, too, have offered to submit to the bands of forgetfulness, and to take the bodies that the. Lords of Karma would offer you and to pass through the veil of birth in the hope that you might fulfill a vision-seen so clearly on the Cosmic screen of life when you wore not the heavy, dense robes of flesh. 

I was among those who volunteered. I was among those who stood forth and said, "Yes, I am willing to go to prepare a body for this Teacher. I am willing to hold the Divine, Immaculate Concept of his Godhood, whatever the conditions of earth I may face." Then the Beloved Lord Maitreya smiled. Who can describe to you the beauty of the smile of' the Cosmic Christ, the light in those glorious violet eyes, the kindness and tenderness that is within them? He said, "Daughter, you know not what you say! However, we shall give you opportunity to prove how well you can draw forth a Divine thought form and hold it here, before us assembled." I stood before the Lords of Karma before my gracious Kwan Yin, and others including the Goddess of Liberty. Lord Maitreya projected into my mind, in their Presence, a miniature figure of Helios, and I held that image in my mind the Immaculate Concept of the Father. Then as l stood the winds blew the winds that were generated out of the Consciousness of the Initiator, which endeavored to disintegrate that form. The Spiritual rains came and the hail, and my consciousness was almost shattered by the impact of that force. It took all of the energies of my Light and all the strength of my concentration to hold that tiny Image, no larger than my finger. I prayed with all the intensity of my Being to the Flame within my Heart, lo let no force within me or without me destroy that Image. I stood thus three hours - three long hours. 

The Mighty Hercules directed his Blue Flame and Ray. All of the Elohim became the power of my testing. At the end of that time, Lord Maitreya said, "It is enough. She has earned the opportunity." I kneeled before him. He placed his hand on my head and said, "Mary, Child of God, you have done well; but the winds you have felt and the power that has been released, are nothing to the creations of the mankind whom you go to serve. May the God that beats your heart sustain you, and our Love enfold you and keep you safe." 

Then it was that I asked a boon of Life, that Gabriel might bring to my remembrance the Vision when, after taking earth life, I would be called upon for my great initiation. I remember yet his white robed figure, his strength and love and power, and he said. "I promise." I remember the love in Jesus' eyes, the tenderness in his sweet countenance. I remember the love of Joseph, before any of us left the Inner realms for that earth life. 

Then we were taken to our temples and there abode until the Cosmic moment in the stars signified that our physical birth was at hand, that we were to be called upon the screen of Life, that our place in the great drama was ready to be filled, and that we were to walk forth. I remember thinking deeply on the figure of Helios and on the Electronic Presence of Jesus. It was the last thought I held as the Angels of Incarnation wrapped my Spirit round and I slipped into the black abyss, awaking in the arms of my mother. 

I remember those early years, I was scarcely three years of age. when Ann and Joachim took me to the temple. I remember looking at the great height of those pillars. I remember feeling that "aloneness" as I saw my parents walk down the steps and out through the gates and I found myself a small soul in a great world. 

I tell you these things because I have lived as you. I have prayed. I have known the buffetings of human thought and feeling. I have known the wanderings and uncertainties that rise unbidden from the soul. I have questioned within myself, in those early years in the temple, whether that strange Vision in the back of my mind, was imagining or whether it was fact. Remember, I was raised by Rabbis and by women strictly orthodox, who had no use for visionary girls and fantasy, who were engaged in preparing the women to become the mothers of the race. I learned in those early years to keep my own counsel. I learned when I saw the Angel faces and heard the sweet voices of those lovely ones, to ponder them in my Heart. 

Then came the time when the Temple would no longer hold me, when I was to go forth, and all of Heaven with bated breath awaited my initiation. Ah! I remember that day, when Gabriel with all his love and light stood there by my side, and oh! how eagerly I grasped the flash of Flame from his glorious Consciousness, within which again was revivified to me that Divine Image, both of Helios and Jesus. As a drowning man grasps at a straw, did I grasp at that Vision. "OH, GOD," in my heart I thought, "IT IS TRUE!" From that moment, though the winds blew, though bigotry and hate and impurity were driven against me, I knew... I held that Concept, and later I held my son within my arms a beautiful child! 

Excuse my enthusiasm, but even as I talk to you my Heart is so filled with Love for the privilege of that experience. I remember well the coming of the Beloved Morya, Kuthumi and Djwal Khul (the three Wise Men). I remember well recognizing them instantly as friends from Home. The gold they brought, Joseph and I used in the long journey into Egypt. It helped us through those years of exile. The frankincense and myrrh I saved for a sadder mission in Joseph's garden. All those days are gone. All that I have in remembrance is the strength that I drew in holding a Concept, which was externalized as a Being who showed Mastery and God Divinity to all men. 

I saw him grow mature and wax strong. I saw the first day that he, too, had a Visitation and the Christ Consciousness was awakened in his mind. I saw the light within his eyes, and I knew then that no longer would Joseph and I have to hold that Concept alone, that he too now, would incorporate it in the Blessed Trinity of Action and externalize it. I remember well when he had attained his maturity, and he would come home with friends of his Heart's choosing. Our quarters were small and humble, for we lived a simple life. Almost every day he would have a new disciple or friend. "These are of my Father" he would say, and smile, and I would be a mother again. Yet that experience was marvelous, for it has enabled me through the ages to love mankind, to understand each one, all the various types and kinds of people within whom beats the Heart of God. 

On a hilltop one day I was given into the keeping of John and John was given to me. The white lips of one I loved more than life, reminded me in those last hours that all the world were my children, and I have never forgotten that admonition. 

I remember a happier day, on a similar hillside (Bethany), when the Resurrected Body of that same Beloved One achieved the Glory of the Ascension, and for a time we said "goodbye." I remember walking down the hill with John and the other disciples, and we counselled together as to how best to give Comfort to those who had been his followers. We lived many years then, endeavoring to build into our lives the teachings that he gave us, endeavoring to share his Nature, until I, too, was called and freed forever from wheel of birth and death, and John joined us soon. 

From this Realm now we come again to help you who want it, to receive the Immaculate Concept of your own Perfection! It seems so difficult to you, and yet, it is not. You are told, and have been, that you are made in the Image and Likeness of God, himself. Looking at you I see that Image, and it is BEAUTIFUL in the extreme. All you have to do is accept it, and then hold to it with all the strength and vitality of your being. I will help you, for you do not have to hold it against the forces which I was called upon to do. Then as that Concept of your Divine Image takes hold in your feelings you will know It is a lie to experience age, disintegration, disease or death. It has no place in the Universe of your Father, or in you his honored son or daughter and you will, as I did, bring forth that Perfection and fulfill your mission in honor. It is for this that I have inaugurated the sons and daughters of Mary; it is for this that I have asked those of you who choose to incorporate your individual energies with me, with Jesus, and with Gabriel particularly, in drawing forth daily a remembrance of your Divine Origin. 

Now, you say, "Yes. But there is a feeling of the appearance of age, and various things. "Won't you PLEASE endeavor, daily, to just take those concepts out of your mind, just as you would take off outer garments that have become soiled and distressed, making a RITUAL of accepting yourself with all the faculties of your God Nature, your sight, your hearing, your beauty of form, your inexhaustible strength and energy, and then the God power and mastery of the Sacred Fire to set your fellowman free! That is the Immaculate Concept, and as you hold that within yourselves, watch your senses for they will report to you again, again and again that which is not true. In all the dignity of your being remember me, and say "NO, IT IS NOT TRUE! I will not accept that the God who made me and has sustained me through the ages has designed me so!" At first it will require repeated endeavor, but if you will persist, you will begin to get a joyous realization in your feelings of your Christ Self. 

For one year now, my children, you have "prattled" (excuse me) about the Holy Christ Selves of all mankind. I want you now to think, "What is this Holy Christ Self to me?" I want you to think of its face, its eyes, its shining hair, its beautiful hands and symmetry of form, its nature. I want you to ponder upon it and contemplate it. If you will ask Gabriel, Serapis, myself, and those of us who work in the Fourth Sphere and with this Holy Christ Self, to help you, we will do so. Then can you not play with the externalization of it, even if your feelings don't follow it fully at first? Can you not practice the imitation of the Christ, until you become it? Can you not walk in the dignity that you feel that Jesus, or perhaps myself manifested, in the serenity, in the confidence, in the Power of the Lord? Do you see? It is practical!

 

Nineteen fifty-four is going to prove you emotionally, prove you in spirit. I am endeavoring with my Beloved Brother Morya, to bring action into the feelings of the students. I am endeavoring to do so kindly, gently. He will do so, I am sure, with more Fire, but with no more sincerity or love.

 

I give to you now the remembrance of my Initiation. I give you the joy of my Victory. I give you the momentum of my centuries of devotion, dedication, loyalty and consecration to the externalization of the God Image for myself and every man and woman and child on the planet. Will you accept it?

 

Kwan Yin and myself are dedicated to holding that Concept, particularly for the women of the race who are called the "social outcasts," who have broken the moral code, and who have seemingly lost the dignity which the feminine aspect of life should externalize. We spend an hour every day holding that Divine Picture of the Christ Self over every one of those women! Can you not do as much for them and for yourselves?

 

OH, WORKING WITH THE DIVINE IMAGE IS SUCH A HAPPY EXPERIENCE! Working with your own is a joy, but I want you to have our FEELING in working with the Divine Image of others.

 

I thank you for your presence. I thank you for drawing all of us (Ladies of Heaven) into your atmosphere, and I trust that perhaps in some simple measure I have given you the homely story behind the Nativity.        

 

Thank you.
