HOW TO USE THE SACRED FIRE

ADDRESS BY BELOVED ZARATHUSTRA

Part II

In the name of God now develop that vehicle which needs it and learn in drawing your life into your hearts to use thought to concentrate the picture you desire, use feeling to energize it and use the vocal cords and the power of conduction through heart and throat, and head and hand; and as you see that sacred fire upon your altars first with the inner sight some day it shall be manifest. 

Every Chohan is a Priest of this order. The sacred fire is consciously qualified primal light into which a self conscious intelligence has invested a certain specific blessing which that light carries forth through the sphere of influence and radiates into the world of form. All of the electrons that pass through your aura are either the sacred fire or just primal light or they are part of the shroud of the earth. 

Zarathustra's Benediction

Oh, great host of salamanders, thou who represent the fire element on this earth... oh, salamanders of this great mountain range, I bring you the benediction of the Sun behind the Sun; I bring you the blessings of Helios and Vesta; I bring you blessings from the heart of Zarathustra, the Spirit of the Fire, and of all the Zarathustra’s who have represented the fire in every one of the planets, in every one of the universes! Oh great planet earth, I bring you the purification of the sacred fire which is vested in me and through my body does pass into this atmosphere today! 

Oh Immortal Flame within the hearts of these here assembled, I speak to you who are of my element, sleep no longer... awaken in the mastery of the supreme element and expand that fire through this earth! 

You who have chosen to be specialists who have within your hearts and minds and souls some impersonal service that you would render life, you who have established sanctuaries and groups to this end or who have established them before and now are prompted to qualify your life particularly with a certain element, to you I speak. 

I come as the Spirit of the Immortal Flame of Life and I will energize the spirit of any flame which you have chosen as your gift to the universe. If it is the flame of healing, the Spirit of Zarathustra within it will charge that radiation with all the momentum of the Sun behind the Sun, if it is the flame of protection, the flame of purification or the flame of truth, I am the Servant of Fire, the Messenger of Fire and the Spirit of Fire and I hope that those of you who have just enjoyed light may become now conductors of the sacred fire! 

How do you think the Violet Fire which you use so joyously, with such wild abandon, came into being? You know mankind uses with such freedom - water and earth, sunshine and air and now some of you who have just touched the fringe of the mysteries, invoke the sacred fire with the same abandon. Yet, that is primal life drawn by some self-conscious being, using the exact formula of which I spoke today and qualifying through thought and feeling, through adoration and invocation and through the combination of their own faculties, that primal life with a quality to bless mankind. The sacred fire, the Violet Transmuting Flame, drawn by Zadkiel, drawn by Buddha, drawn by Sanat Kumara, Kwan Yin and Saint Germain is a gift of their attention, concentration, qualification and radiation, that somewhere along life's path there might be an already established momentum of the sacred fire for the use of those who wanted it. 

I am the spirit of enthusiasm

It would be a far different thing if your own creative centers had to establish the Violet Transmuting Flame. If you did not have the momentum of all the Beings who went before you, so that at your call it blazes up, in, through and around you in the fullness of the momentum of those Beings. 

The same with the power of healing that the practitioners and the faith healers and the lifestreams who are natural conductors use, it is primal life which Beings from the beginning, Uriel and all those down through Jesus have qualified and sent forth. When you or any man desires to render service through healing you have already qualified life which can be conducted through you in cooperation with your own endeavors to render the assistance. 

Now you are to become conductors! Will you be as selfless? Will you be as willing to stand within that pillar of light, nameless, radiating centers of a gift that will remain long after you have gone? Truly I hope so! 

I am the Spirit of Enthusiasm! Without enthusiasm and feeling NOTHING lasting is accomplished in the world of form. The most beautiful visions, the most magnificent thoughts peter out and are stillborn, until the fire of enthusiasm is in the feeling world to give them life. 

Every man and woman, every saint and sage, every pioneer and inventor, every member of the kingdom of science that has achieved has done so because the fire of enthusiasm burning through the vision sustained that vision until it became fact! 

Those of you with vision who have not the fires of enthusiasm within you will never have the drive required to pass through the mass momentum of resistance against change, even for good! Without enthusiasm Columbus after one attempt at the court of Europe would have abandoned his quest and returned to the monastery where his son was and his heart was, for he was at heart a mystic, but enthusiasm sustained him in face of ridicule, in face of poverty, in face of every kind of discouragement and as those boats crossed that chartless sea and as the mutiny arose within the hearts and souls of lesser men and as the sails caught no wind and the seas rose and the groaning board split, it was the enthusiasm in the heart of ONE MAN that carried those boats, carried those lifestreams across the sea and founded this nation that you enjoy! 

Without enthusiasm nothing can be accomplished

Without enthusiasm Jesus would have abandoned his ministry! In Gethsemane's garden facing death, it was enthusiasm and fire that helped him to hold the vision that life is triumphant and that death in truth had no reality! Enthusiasm carried those blessed feet over the road to Calvary and held him upon the cross at Golgotha! 

THOSE OF YOU WHO DESIRE TO BUILD A FOUNDATION UPON WHICH A NEW AGE SHALL STAND, those of you who profess to lay the cornerstone for Freedom, I say to you couple your vision with enthusiasm and use me as yourself! 

The fires of enthusiasm are not the fires of the zealot, the fanatic, which burn to ash and destroy! Enthusiasm is balance! Enthusiasm is a positive, conscious progression but the feeling is always under the control of the Presence of God! Enthusiasm is contagious, even as is doubt and fear! Be careful that which you carry in your feeling world, for contagion through the feelings has been the destruction of every golden age as well as the foundation of every magnificent spiritual and physical perfection! 

If we did not have feeling to which we could tie, which could stir the masses out of lethargy, we would not have sustained the planet to this day! 

You are, some of you, spiritual incendiaries! The fire of enthusiasm is in your hand. The powers of the sacred fire are within the compass of your being and to you I give my hand and Heart! The others enjoy the radiation of light, that light which comes from those who wield the sacred fire and which is the sweet anointing and benediction that will survive and remain long after I gather into my robes and arms the enthusiasts and take them home! 

Good morning!
