Located in Ceylon, the beautiful Island south of India is the Focus of the Temple of Comfort, presided over in dignity and graciousness by the Beloved Maha Chohan, Supervisor of the Seven Chohans and Representative of the Holy Spirit to this Earth. 

Here is located one of the ancient Retreats of the Eastern World. Under the surface of the plantation which is maintained here is the Temple of Comfort itself, hidden from the eyes of the curious and protected against intrusion by any and all peoples who are not yet worthy of entering into and becoming an active part of the teachings and practices of the Holy Comforter and his Disciples. 

There is no outer means by which any unascended being can force him or herself into the Ascended Masters' Presence or into their glorious Retreats, except by individual preparation of their souls, in true humility, and by having within themselves the motivating power of pure Divine Love for all life and an honest purpose, not surface desire, to help in the program of the evolutions presently using the Earth for a Planetary Home. 

The beautiful Silent Watchers of each locality, with the inner vision, see and know the motivating power behind all such desires to sit at the feet of the Ascended Masters. As surely as the Sun rises each morning and sets in silent but glorious splendor each evening, when any individual's aura and inner bodies indicate that they are ready for individual teaching, instruction and knowledge at the feet of the Ascended Masters, means are provided instantly for such Assistance to be given them. 

Therefore, it behooves each and every dear chela to prepare himself or herself to become worthy to be chosen by the Ascended Host as personal pupils. As most of the dear chelas know, Beloved Æolus, when he held the office of Maha Chohan, inaugurated the Service of accepting personal pupils. Previously the instruction and preparation of the four lower vehicles of the chelas and the purification of their souls was under the direction of the Seven Chohans. In this New Cycle, he opened the Doors of this Sacred Retreat to the worthy chelas of his Chohans. 

Our beloved Paul, the present Maha Chohan, has chosen to carry on the Service of his eminent predecessor, and invites the earnest and worthy chelas to his Temple of Comfort, to enter into the Sacred Flame Room, to counsel with him, to receive from him greater understanding by which, each such a privileged one can intensify, with greater wisdom, his or her constructive activities on any one of the Seven Rays to which such a chela, by nature belongs! 

For this courtesy, we are so grateful, as it greatly assists us in helping our chelas to develop their own latent talents, gifts and powers and services in the world of form. 

Remind your outer consciousness often of the privilege that is yours and, always, enter the Temple of Comfort humbly, reverently and gratefully.
