ASSIMILATION AND EXPANSION OF THE ELECTRONIC PATTERN

March 1997

The Temple of the Resurrection

The Temple of the Sacred Heart

ELECTRONIC PATTERN: See the beautiful angels, sent by Archangel Raphael and Mother Mary, standing beside each lifestream now in embodiment. They lovingly place a special Mantle of Light around each one of these lifestreams, surrounding them with the light of God. This radiant mantle of light now firmly in place, forms a victorious, iridescent Mantle of protection all around the Earth, allowing only the light of God to shine through, awakening the Holy Christ selves of all humankind.  

Excerpts from a discourse by Archangel Raphael, previously published in the April 1993 Bridge Journal.

Today I wish to speak about the Mantle of Light, and give you a fuller understanding of its value and importance to your lifestreams. What exactly is a 'mantle'? The term, as used by us, indicates both the authority and responsibility of a spiritual office. Understood in this way, a mantle also provides the protection of the authority given. Your Mantle of Light, given by God through your God Presence forms your aura. Likewise, my Mantle forms my aura. Every living thing has an aura which is formed by the emanation of light from within itself. That aura, or mantle, is larger or smaller according to the consciousness and evolution of the lifeform from which it emanates.

Some time ago I offered you a Cloak which is another word by which we refer to a mantle. Whenever a Master offers you his or her mantle, it is given by blazing it through your consciousness and letting it move outward to form a layer of light around your own Mantle of Light. Thus, you are given the privilege of experiencing the Mantle of the Master as it passes through the silver cord and into your consciousness. Thus, you may receive its healing, enlightenment, or other gifts as it also strengthens your own aura. While this activity takes place, you will also feel the Presence of the Master upon whom you have called and realize—at least for a brief time—how the gift of that one feels. Now that I have explained this point, you will be able to experience this merging process at a more conscious level.

As you sleep and while your finer vehicles are receiving training in the Ascended Master Retreats, you are taught certain points of Cosmic Law which you may not consciously recall during your waking hours. The way in which these points of law are brought to you during the day is through tests in your outer personality and life. Sometimes you will be able to apply the inner knowledge given successfully. If you do, you will become conscious of it as a completion of the inner lesson given. If you are unable to put the point of law into action in the outer world, it is never considered a failure, in most instances, you do become aware of the lesson. Other opportunities will be offered until each lesson is thoroughly learned.  

Sometimes you know you have not handled an outer situation according to spiritual law, but you may not be able to think of how you could have done better. I mention this in passing because all of you remember waking up knowing certain lessons, which you cannot recall consciously and explain to another person. The reason for this is that all lessons given at inner levels must be demonstrated successfully in your outer physical lives. This is the true test of all learning. The time always comes when you are able to bring these inner teachings into practice and eventually you are able to handle similar situations according to the point of law learned.  

When a Cosmic Law has become clearly understandable to you, you have taken a step forward in consciousness and you will no longer forget that lesson. It then becomes a permanent part of your Mantle of Light and others who even enter into your presence may absorb and benefit by your new understanding. At such times you and I always come together. My aura is merged with yours, as you are re-consecrated to serve at a higher level of being, knowing you will be able to use your new understanding at all future opportunities. It is a beautiful and inspiring experience, and there is much joy attending such times of illumination with the merging of our Mantles of Light.  

My flame is my aura. It is crystalline with a blazing mother of pearl radiance, which contains constantly changing emanations of color. This flame, beloved, is the mantle I lovingly offer to you. Within it you may reconsecrate your four lower vehicles as often as you wish or desire. It is always and eternally available to you and comes with my love for you, each one. If you require healing, it is there. If you need protection, just ask! If it is love and comfort you desire, I enfold you with it right now.  

Ask for the truth of God right now, and it is yours, confirming within your own being and world the truth of my message to you today. Permit me to resurrect the Holy Christ Self within your precious heart with my love and consecration to the Will of God! It is my privilege and joy to assist you to attain the experience of life and mastery that you seek, and for which you so diligently strive. Ask, receive and keep on climbing the path up the mountain, until my aura becomes a permanent part of yours forever! You are not far away and it is by your own determination that you shall be eternally victorious!
