To the Sacred
Fire, in all its aspects, Greetings:
We consciously give gratitude and love to the God Parents of whatever System chose to focus a portion of themselves into Universal life and create individual self-conscious intelligences who through the Immortal Threefold Flame of Life so projected could and did know and cognize the power to say and feel "I AM!"
To every such
self-conscious intelligence who has recognized the power of that Immortal
Threefold Flame of Life as the center of Being and through it has created and
expanded certain specific God Virtues, Activities and Radiations beneficial to
this Universe, we give gratitude and love.
To each foci of the Sacred Fire of love, healing, peace, purity,
opulence, mercy, sublimation of imperfection, faith, wisdom we give our
gratitude for the full gathered momentum of that developed activity of the
Sacred Fire which is available for the use and assistance of those desiring it.
To every unascended being seeking his way back HOME; to everyone who
has begun to enter into a conscious realization of the Presence of that Sacred
Fire, we give our encouragement and sustaining power.
Let all self-conscious intelligences know that the powers of the
Sacred Fire within themselves are the actual Presence of God within their
beating hearts. Let them enter into its Presence; sublimate their destructive
karma and human nature and then expand the particular virtues accumulated in
their Causal Bodies for the enrichment of the race, nation and planet to which
they presently belong!
Let the Sacred Fire be so honored, acknowledged, accepted and
utilized by the chelas until, by their own individual and collective
applications, they qualify to draw forth, visible to the physical sight of all
mankind, the Presence of the Sacred Fire! Let there be established on this sweet
Earth again the Temples of the Sacred Fire! So be it!

The Homes and Retreats of the Masters of Wisdom
ROCKY MOUNTAIN RETREAT
June 15 through
July 14, 1956
The magnificent natural cathedral, rising from the plains of the
green fields of Wyoming, is the most ancient focus of the Ascended Masters upon
the planet Earth. Here, ages ago, Lord Michael the Archangel and the Lord Manu
of the First Root Race led the first members of the human race from Inner Levels
into their first embodiment upon this sweet Earth. Here, the Sevenfold Flame of
the Great Elohim formed the glorious lotus of living fire, signifying to this
Universe that the Earth was ready for physical habitation. Here, Beloved Virgo
(Goddess of the Earth), Aries (Goddess of the Air), Neptune (God of the Water),
and Bliss (Goddess of Spring) met the descending spirits of the First Root Race,
offering the pristine purity of a planet to them in the greatest hospitality and
generosity of service ever known. Here, kneeling reverently around their Manu
and Lord Michael, the members of the First Root Race thanked Almighty God for
their Hostess (Earth) and all her attendant Servants of Ministration! Here, in
the ethered substance, still pulsates the Pathway of Light upon which the Lord
Manu, Lord Michael, the Guardian Spirits and the Holy Innocents descended for
the experience of their self-chosen expression upon the sweet Earth. From here,
Masters, Angels and newborn men went North, East, South and West to carry the
light of God to the four corners of the Earth.
Thus, the Rocky Mountain Retreat is (by its very nature) the focus
of precipitation, expansion of the light, and manifestation in the world of
form.
Today the Brotherhood of the Rocky Mountain Retreat hold as their
reason for being the sustained consciousness of precipitation of the Divine
Pattern through every member of the human race who chooses to return (in
consciousness) to their own individualized "I Am" Presence and ask: "why was I
born; sustained through countless ages; nourished by God and elemental life and
given opportunity in this day to live upon the surface of the planet Earth?"
Because this Retreat was established as the Open Door into Earth
experience, twice each year it opens its doors to those men, women and children
who desire to become part of the redemption of the Earth which, through the
ages, has lost much of its pristine purity, happiness, peace, perfection and
opulence.
The Lords of Karma (further described in the Masters of Wisdom Speak
in this issue) gather over the Rocky Mountain Retreat twice each year for the
purpose of giving ear to the ways and means by which Masters, Angels, Elementals
and men may return the Earth and its attendant evolutions to perfection.
Petitions, ideas and spiritual designs to purify the Earth raise its
people to their own natural God Estate, are discussed by the Brotherhood and
chelas (still working in earth bodies) . These ideas are presented to the Lords
of Karma and, when feasible, the Lords of Karma grant the Petitioners (Divine,
human or Elemental) opportunity to develop the seed ideas into practical,
workable forms which will benefit the emotional, mental, etheric and physical
planes. The results of the grants and dispensations given at previous Conclaves
determine much of their leniency and cooperation at succeeding Conclaves.
Let all earnest chelas turn their attention consciously toward the
Rocky Mountain Retreat each evening before they retire (and as often during the
day as is practically possible) with an earnest heart-desire and sincere
spiritual motive to help in the great Cosmic Service of redemption of
misqualified life. When possible, actual petitions and plans can be designed by
the chelas; given to the Angelic Being who accepts the suggestions and, if these
plans show promise of assistance to mankind, he chela will be given opportunity
to present them before the Assembled Brotherhood. If the chela, himself, has not
the capabilities of developing these plans entirely through his own endeavors,
sometimes a Master or Angelic Being will accept the responsibility of
incorporating those plans into the activities of his particular Retreat or
personal endeavor. Such a Divine chela in bringing to fruition those plans. Then
the Lords or Being also often offers to assist the zealous but not fully capable
of Karma, looking upon the Causal bodies of the Divine Beings, their chelas and
mankind en masse, study the Thoughtform for the year and the possible assistance
such plans would be to the development of the unified endeavor of the Spiritual
Hierarchy. After such thorough research, the Great Karmic Board gives or
withholds acquiescence to develop that plan.
It is truly a glorious OPPORTUNITY to attend these Conclaves; more
so, to participate in them! You are invited so to do!
