Greetings, pilgrims on the Path, I bless you with my full gathered momentum of God Illumination, which I trust will become a sustaining power as you journey ever forward on your way back home! 

Thank you for the courtesy of standing, will you kindly be seated. 

On this day when the Retreat of Truth at Crete is specifically accelerated, and will be accelerated through the ensuing month, I bring you loving greetings from the glorious Pallas Athena, Goddess of Truth, and the Beloved Master Hilarion, Hierarch of that Focus, as they send their mighty Radiation of Cosmic Truth to you and to all Life! 

I am reminded today of the pilgrims in India who so diligently endeavor to reach a particular Focus at a specific time when a great outpouring of Light is taking place. Some reach the place of assembly, others do not. You, blessed chelas, have followed the Light in your heart to the Central Focus of the Spiritual Hierarchy in the Etheric Realm over Long Island and to the physical Focus on its landed surface. 

I most sincerely congratulate you for your expansion of consciousness, which is evidenced by the greater Light in your auras, and for your steadfastness and constancy of purpose which has brought you to this Retreat - and I bless all the dear chelas throughout the Planet who are tuning in to all the activities taking place at Shamballa by directing their attention to these Meetings. 

I wish to encourage those who have not been able to be here in person, and while they will nightly go with their Sponsors of the month to the Retreat at Crete, on their return journey they will be escorted to Shamballa to receive the glorious blessings of the tremendous outpouring of Light all through these eight days. 

Beloved ones, I ask your cooperation in sending the blessing of your own "I AM" Presence and the Ray of Cosmic Illumination to all youth, in no matter what organization they maybe serving, who are endeavoring to expand the Wisdom of the Second Ray to their own generation. They are rendering a specific and necessary service to the outpicturing of the Divine Plan for the Earth, and by adding your Light and energy to their service will do much to expand their consciousness. 

It is through the Grace of Almighty God and your own cooperation in service that you are affiliated with THE BRIDGE TO FREEDOM, and I do counsel you to bend the knee to the All-encompassing Presence of the Almighty, that you, the Bridge chelas, are among the few who have expanded their Light to the degree where you can tolerate the accelerated radiation which pulsates from Shamballa. True, the Light of God goes forth to all upon this Earth from this Heart Center, but the chelas of THE BRIDGE are the radiating centers of the most intense Radiation which flows from this Central Focus. 

Let not the thought trespass upon your consciousness that you, or anyone else, particularly those with whom you are not in complete rapport, that you are greater than any other representative of the Cosmic Hierarchy. Any such thought or feeling emanates from the lower self. Emulate the Sons and Daughters of Heaven, and have reverence for the Light within all Life, seeing not the outer garment of anyone who may temporarily be outpicturing some untransmuted karma of the ages! 

The chela who has reached the stage in his evolution where he can truly respect the Light within all his fellow travelers has indeed progressed upon the Path. This love of the Flame within must be expressed by all mankind on their Homeward Journey, and before they may achieve their ultimate Victory in the Light! 

Since it is my Service to Life to bring God Illumination to the youth specifically, I would like now to address my remarks to the younger generation here assembled. 

I am extremely grateful there is a Meeting Room for your activities at this Conference, and at other times when so designated, where you may discuss your plans for the expansion of your individual groups, and the means by which you may collectively accelerate your service. 

I am particularly pleased that the very walls of this room are of golden hue and that the Flame of Protection is expressed in the blue chairs. Will you, the Youth Group, now enter deeply into the Flame within your Hearts and welcome an Angel from my Legions who will take up their abode within your auras to assist you in your expanded service - they will remain with you until, at least, a year hence. Naturally you realize that the youth are the leaders of the future, and it is time that you learned the truth of the statement that "Angels will walk and talk with men." That personal companionship will now begin, and your conscious communion will come later, depending upon the harmony and humility of your beings. 

Please listen attentively while I tell you that the Sponsors of the Year - the Directors of the Elements have set into motion a plan to stop the growth of any plant which would be used in a manner that would be detrimental to evolving life upon this Planet. I, of course, refer to that which is used as dope - that noxious substance which befogs the consciousness and renders an individual incapable of clear thinking. This would be through the purification of the elements themselves so that none of the little elementals could follow a pattern which would outpicture in a substance designed to impede man's purification of consciousness! This is part of a Petition presented by Beloved Virgo, as Spokesman for the Sponsors of the Year, to the mighty Karmic Board. Any assistance you would care to give through your calls would be so gratefully received. The chelas, you realize, are supposed to cooperate with the Sponsors of each year, so I place this opportunity before you. 

I shall speak briefly on the evil of narcotics addiction which is finding acceptance in all age groups, among the younger generation particularly. We are encouraged by the cooperation of several Governments in that the traffic in drugs will be curtailed. However, when the 'weeds' are plucked out in one area, they have a habit of cropping up in another. We require dynamic calls to stop this poisonous substance at its source.

We are grateful that there are so many who have had the strength of character to apply for and to accept guidance, and have freed themselves of this curse, and in so doing have entered upon a constructive way of facing life. Those individuals and agencies who are giving assistance to the youth through cleanliness of consciousness and body are among the blessed way-showers of the Lord. I shall give every assistance permitted by Cosmic Law to help all who have emerged from the dens of darkness into the Light, and I reiterate, I appeal to each of you to give me added energy through your Calls! 

We bless all individuals who are endeavoring, and with some success, to rehabilitate all those who have fallen prey to this insidious tool of the sinister force. I counsel you, I plead with you, to send a Ray of God Illumination into all Centers engaged in the process of restoration of the consciousness of those so enmeshed!

Beloved Flames from God's Heart pulsating as one great Sunburst this day, I know you will all be grateful to know that my Illumined Co-Server, Lord Lanto, is standing on this dais with me, and he joins me in sending a powerful and direct Ray of God Illumination into your beings and into this room, which shall expand its blessing to all the youth upon this Planet, blessing all in its Cosmic Wisdom. To all who wear the garment of added years I state, the Christ within you is youthful and any outer appearance of age is only an expression of the mass consciousness! Accept the Christ Consciousness for yourself - invite the Beloved Jesus (the mighty Micah) to give you his feeling of the Christ, and as you turn your attention to Beloved Lanto and myself at any time, we shall be most happy to accelerate the Flame of God Illumination which is blazing in your Causal Bodies waiting for expression through your lower vehicles. 

To the youth here assembled, I humbly offer you my Love for preparing the program which will be presented following this Address. It is encouraging to all of the Spiritual Hierarchy to witness a demonstration of your deep Love of God through your expanding consciousness. To each member of this group, I offer our felicitations and I look forward to your activities with the youth in the various locations of the Earth where you presently abide. The time is now at hand for you to set Plans into motion, without further delay, which will include and be of assistance to those less privileged than you. This is one of the reasons why I have assigned an Angel of the Flame of God Illumination to be in your auras. Do not take this being lightly - he or she is now a 'Prisoner of Love'. Please give them the deference of daily recognition of their Presence with you, for they have so graciously accepted this offer to be of service to and through you. Please lovingly accept the Radiation which they can give. 

Remember that in my role of World Teacher, assigned to the youth, I shall be closely watching and guiding each of you. I love you.
