On Palm Sunday, the praises and words of the Orthodox world go forth as the sermons in the churches elaborate on the manner in which Jesus was glorified and hailed as the King. Yet not a week elapses before the attention of the masses is turned to the lurid re-enactment of the "crucifixion" of the Beloved Master.

I appeal to you, particularly this week, to use and use the Violet Fire of Transmutation to obliterate this entity of sorrow which is activated to enormous proportions through humanity's attention. Fill every church with the Merciful Violet Fire and ask that every representation of the crucified Christ is replaced with that of the Triumphant Risen Christ.

Although the conscious chelas engage in a similar activity each year, while the sorrowful concept is imprinted upon the consciousness of the masses, that dolorous entity continues to release its energy and affect the peoples of this Planet in an adverse manner. This is a Season of Rejoicing — the greatest in all Spiritual Celebrations . . THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE! It is symbolic of the Christ within each one who must one day arise in Full Victory, when the 'mass consciousness' of which the human self is a part will humbly bow before the Divine Self, and say and feel with complete submission — Thy Will, Oh Father, not mine be done!

A TRIBUTE TO BELOVED MOTHER MARY

by Beloved Saint Germain

I was given the responsibility of guarding that blessed Being, Mary, and having through proximity to Her Presence witnessed the strength and yet the gentleness of that life, from the time that She was just a girl all through the years, and the experiences which We shared, and how She guarded that Concept of Perfection for blessed Jesus! His great Light and His beautiful Spirit, was certainly enchanted by that lovely Being, the Mother Mary.

When We honor Mary, I feel always so grateful to God that I had that association with Her and helped Her, She says, but then She always said that everyone with whom She was surrounded helped Her. I think it was She Who helped Us all, even the blessed Jesus, to His fulfillment!

Mary was always so graceful in nature and in consciousness, that whatever anybody would do, even the most homely tasks, She would tell them that they were so helpful. I used to sit some times in the evening and watch Mary with Her Child and it seemed that all the day's work and service left no mark upon Her; no lines upon Her face and Her hands as smooth and soft at eventide as they were, in the morning, even though I know She had worked in the earth. She loved the herbs and gardens.

There seemed about Her hands, beloved ones, that most beautiful sanctity — it was a wonderful therapy for Me to sit and watch Her hands.

Sometimes She would be playing with Jesus or She would be mending garments or just laying Our places for the table but I loved to watch those hands. Even yet I can recommend to you for healing the hands of Mother Mary — those hands that have never since those days so long ago, ceased to reach forth and bless all life. I recommend to you when you seem to need peace or rest or healing, to ask for the hands of Mother Mary, to give to you the benediction and the blessing that are Hers. Imagine the momentum of Light qualified by that Lifestream that has flown thru that Electronic Body and thru those blessed hands!

Tonight in the Resurrection Temple the activity is in the development of the power of the Resurrection of the good within all life! The lovely Mary of Whom I speak stands above the Resurrection Temple which you will remember is circular in form. She wears as usual that beautisoft blue with which She has become identified.

She stretches forth Her hands in blessing right over the Temple and that is why I speak so much of the blessings from the hands of Mary. Beloved Jesus officiates within the Heart of the Resurrection Temple. He is dressed in white garments; a beautiful Being of Light who did overcome physically in this world of form so-called death; Who brought that wonderful message of the Resurrection into form thru His physical body and then Who accomplished the glory of the Ascension. He stands next to the opalescent flame of the Resurrection Ray, inside of the central corridor where the Flame blazes upward. As has been said Mother Mary stands in the atmosphere and is pouring Her radiation down.

So the activities progress and beloved Jesus will raise His hands until they touch Mary's from above. For the present He is busy in the Heart of the Flame Room from whence there are Rays going out. There are many Messengers coming into this Temple through the seven corridors.

Many of Them seem to be of the Angelic Host. They are coming into the Heart of the Resurrection Temple and kneeling before the beloved Jesus. They are either receiving instructions from Him or asking His benediction. He does not seem to be speaking but He is in the act of giving the benediction to these Beings.

What exactly They are going to do this night I am not yet acquainted with but after getting this benediction They move outward and pass on to the periphery of the circle of radiance of the Temple. The beloved Beings from the Forces of the Elements, of course, enjoy the Resurrection Temple. They love it because They have had the privilege and happiness of experiencing the resurrection in Themselves. They are dancing within that Flame and disporting Themselves -- the Directors of the Elements are calling Them in from various vicinities on the planet Earth and They will be blessed and then They take that power of the Resurrection Flame back with Them into Their own locality.

The Resurrection Temple is in the etheric realm, so the Builders of Form have created the amphitheater over the Holy Land where the Archangels are able to, as usual, bring in the various members of the disembodied to whom They wish to give the power of Resurrection of certain qualities.

Let us make the call now on behalf of all students and all life everywhere that there be resurrected only that which will be of benefit to life and that all the rest be placed within that Violet Fire of Transmutation! The souls who belong to the group that will be chosen by the Karmic Board to come into the Sacred Heart Temple this May are all in one group.

They are entering into the amphitheater and the beloved Kwan Yin and Meta and Those particularly concerned with incoming children are watching the activity of the Resurrection Flame upon their souls, because as you know for every soul that is chosen to re-embody this year two must wait for the next year. The Resurrection Flame Temple is a very good place to find out what a soul will do in its next embodiment. Ordinarily Mother Mary would be very active in that service but as She is holding the particular focus of healing, She cannot render the other service at the same time.

The beloved Maha Chohan of course is very familiar as an active Member of this Resurrection Temple for it is from this Temple that he directs His mighty light rays into the Earth to bring forth the seasons of the year, particularly the Spring and the Harvest. He is with beloved Pallas Athena, beloved Portia and various Other Ones.

They are all wearing white tonight; some of Them have an opalescent band around the hem of Their garments as They are the Brothers or the Sisters of the Resurrection Temple.

I am told these Beings approaching the Master Jesus are particular Beings Who are concerned with the meeting of lifestreams who pass thru the change called death, and in the older dispensation They would have been called the Angels of Death. They have all been given a certain benediction at the feet of Jesus tonight, a certain blessing so that there will be a greater ease in passing from this planet Earth for animals, and birds as well as human beings. This is very gratifying to Me for it has been My personal petition, as you know, ever since I Myself passed from the body in the presence of beloved Jesus and Mary. That passing was made so easy by the love and the liberty that They gave Me, by not allowing any sense of personal loss or grief to hold my soul and Spirit, so the change that I made when I left the body of Joseph was a happy and easy experience.

I had thought it would be a great wrench, being so devoted to Mary and Jesus, yet They made it so easy for Me, I then asked the Law if I might make the application and qualify to become in time a Patron of a Happy Passing. You know today I am so referred to as Saint Joseph, the Patron of the Happy Passing.

I am grateful tonight to see the activity of these Angels that will be in sickrooms and in and around individuals who are going to make the change. They are so charged with the feeling of buoyancy it will greatly relieve and release individuals, not only those who are going to pass on, and are passing on, but those remaining on Earth as well. This is a marvelous activity of Light and I am grateful to be a part of it, as I know you are as well!
