Thanksgiving Address
Beloved Jesus
November
28, 1965"I AM" he who is often referred to as the Prince of Peace, and I come into the atmosphere of Earth today bringing all the momentum of that Quality which it has been my privilege to gather through the centuries... Peace, blessed Peace, that which the hearts of men on this Planet so crave. There is no soul upon this Earth who, within the recesses of his being, does not desire Peace.
We know that the fanatics, the zealots, are those who are using the Sixth Ray Quality of Peace in a negative manner, and once their enthusiasm can be channeled into a constructive endeavor, since they have great momentums of Peace in their lifestreams, the stockpile of that Virtue for the Earth will be tremendously expanded.
Discipline required to keep the lower vehicles at Peace
My Mission upon this Globe was to externalize the Gifts and Powers of Perfection which I had garnered through the ages. It was essential that I keep my four lower vehicles at Peace, so that my Christ Self could draw from my Causal Body those Treasures which I had 'laid up in Heaven' - the storehouse of my Being. After I had proven that I was able to do this through tremendous discipline, mind you I was privileged, or given the opportunity of drawing upon the Nature of the then World Teacher, Beloved Lord Maitreya, now the Buddha, Lord Divino.
Since it is now my opportunity to serve as World Teacher with Beloved Kuthumi, there are many unascended lifestreams to whom I have offered to channel the Gifts of my Lifestream into the evolutions of this Earth. In most in- stances they are those who were associated with me during my Mission upon this Earth, and who have deeply embedded the memories of those days when we served the common purpose of showing the peoples of this Earth plane that each had a Christ Self, who would, and could, show them the way back Home, given the opportunity of directing the energies of their lifestreams. Some of these blessed chelas are those who have not yet completely accepted within their vehicles that this is now the Seventh Ray Dispensation, clinging tenaciously to the Sixth Ray.
Beloved Jesus offers his personal assistance
I ask those who still feel so strongly in this regard, to counsel with me and I will assist them in the forward change to the Seventh Ray vibration. You know, permit me to say, that this reluctance is born of the human which finds change distasteful. I know the Way! I have walked the Path to Victory before you! I offer my assistance! Please let me help you!
The Wayshowers of Men
As I was permitted during my Ministry on Earth to show the way to others, so have you been instructed through the years to be the Wayshowers of men. I most enthusiastically and prayerfully counsel you to follow the instructions which we of the Spiritual Hierarchy have given you these many years. You realize, of course, that this can only be accomplished through holding the Peace, and through the radiation of Pure Divine Love and Tolerance of your fellow traveler.
I wish to emphasize the fact that you have been, and still are being prepared, to release the Gifts of your Causal Body. None have yet realized the importance of your own Spiritual bank, upon which you can draw the various Virtues which are so required for the evolutions of the Earth at this chaotic time. The day is fast approaching when you are going to be in contact with larger groups of people, and for that moment you have to be in readiness as a 'conductor' of the God Qualities which you have built through the ages, in preparation for this day. We come to counsel you for the benefaction of all upon this Planet, not for your personal advancement, alone. We are accountable to the Spiritual Law for the release of our energy, and its investment in you, and it is expedient that you realize this.
Do not limit your Causal Body
Now, in your own personal experience, regarding your own vehicles, please do not limit your Causal Body in that it is only permitted to function in the Higher Realms. If you are expressing any form of distress or disintegration, that is because of your acceptance of the negative. It is comparatively simple for you to turn your attention to your Causal Body and allow the Perfection you once knew to flow through and rejuvenate your vehicles, and bring to your conscious disposal all that is required for that externalization of Perfection, and in so doing, be a Radiating Center of God's Gifts for all mankind.
Perfection is waiting for Expression
Further, the Etheric Realm is literally 'bursting' with Perfection, just waiting for some obedient and illumined lifestreams to tune in to the Gifts therein and channel them into the Earth plane. Oh the wondrous blessings which that magnificent Exponent of God's Will, Beloved El Morya has obediently received from the Cosmic "I AM" Presence and released to the other Directors of the Rays, to have them add the Beauty and Talents of their Beings, and all that glorious Perfection is waiting, waiting, for you and other illumined and trained life-streams to lower into the atmosphere of Earth, through the art of Listening Grace and Obedience to the Will of God. Seriously contemplate these words, and show us, your Teachers, that our investment in you can bear further fruit for the expansion of Perfection upon this Planet! I have confidence in your ability to do so, and I shall be waiting, watching and praying for your expanded illumination and Obedience to the Will of God.
The reason we continually prod you
Blessed hearts of Light, please understand that it is because we love you, and know your great potential, that we continually prod you, but at the same time glancing at your lifestreams individually, I can say unreservedly, that it is because of the wonderful expansion of your Light that we find great promise in your endeavors, and know that you are on the threshold of manifesting the glorious Perfection of the Heritage which the Creator has invested in you, individually. God speed that day!
Your cooperation in the building of Shamballa
A word about Shamballa… the Assembly in the Etheric Realm over Long Island is well pleased with the cooperation of the chelas of THE BRIDGE TO FREEDOM thus far, and it is our heart prayer that you will continue in your participation of this God ordained Project. Blessed be your obedient lifestreams. Your names are inscribed in Living Light on the Scroll for the building of Shamballa, an opportunity and a privilege which you have wholeheartedly accepted. One day, when you are Ascended and Free, you will see what this has done for the advancement of your lifestreams on the Path to Spiritual Freedom in the Lights.
The Light which is blazing forth from the Etheric Shamballa is so powerful and sublime; truly it is a wonder that the physical eyes of the people who live on this Holy Isle do not see its beauty in the Heavens. We are anticipating that some will have that ecstasy of joyful visual participation in its release. We know the chelas will experience great happiness while the home of the Spiritual Hierarchy is opened to them, for the buoyancy of the acceptance of the activities of the Hierarchy is finding a welcome in their etheric vehicles, which surely will infiltrate the other lower garments.
The Gratitude of the Spiritual Hierarchy
The chelas all over the Planet who are so assiduously serving the Cause of World Good brings immense gratitude to their Elder Brothers and Sisters who have preceded them into God Freedom. Every movement, every gesture, of the Assembled Guests at Shamballa is of a poetic quality, and the Cosmos is enriched by the Glorious Harmony of the Spheres. Your part in the activities is of noteworthy caliber, blessed children of Light.
Beloved Holy ÆOLUS and the Goddess of Liberty, in particular, have asked that I convey their gratitude, as well as that of the entire Hierarchy in the nourishment which your love has given the Little Doves. When first released, they were about the size of the little fireflies, as you were told, and they have now grown to the proportions of a fully grown Dove. Truly are they the Harbingers of the Peace which shall, by Cosmic Edict, enfold all life upon this Planet, and the Earth herself. We are interested in the ingenuity of the chelas in the directives which are given to these Doves and their Angelic Guardians. Meritorious is this experiment and most spiritually rewarding. Continue, beloved ones, in this cooperative activity!
The Christmas Season
Since this year is the inauguration of the Thanksgiving Class in which the chelas participate, we are elated with its reception, and will be most efficacious in imprinting in their consciousness, that while the celebration of the Sixth Ray Dispensation, at which time particular honor is given to the Holy Family and my Birth upon this Earth, the Easter Season of Triumphant Victory in the Light takes precedence.
Great Spiritual advancement and good takes place during the Christmas Season, and all who participate are blessed, but its importance should not overshadow the greater, in the consciousness of the chelas. Naturally there are many, many lifestreams upon this Planet who have not yet been introduced to my Ascended Brothers and Sisters, and at this time we take advantage of the opportunity, through the assistance of the Angelic Host in particular, to infiltrate their consciousness with the Virtues of Pure Divine Love and Peace. They are brought close to their Source through the magnificent release of Harmonious Music and their feeling of Brotherhood. The beautiful and beloved Lady Nada, who has succeeded me as Chohan of the Sixth Ray, plays a prominent part in the expansion of World Peace, and may I suggest that you invoke her in this regard, knowing her momentum, too, of Pure Divine Love.
As we reach the conclusion of this mighty Class, the Spiritual Hierarchy all hold you in their embrace, but I feel particular pressure from our so loved Lord of the World, Gautama, Holy Æolus, my Beloved Mother, Mary, and our great King, Beloved Saint Germain - oh, I could go on and on, but know within your dear hearts, we are elated with your progress and the Flame of Gratitude, significant of Thanksgiving, enfolds you in its all-encompassing Love.
Your Teacher and Friend,
Jesus of Nazareth
