Beloved Children:
It is with great pleasure that I turn the energies of this week's publication over to my beloved son, Kuthumi, who will give you an eye picture of the events at the last Transmission Flame Ceremony held in the Mercy Temple at Peiping, January 15th,. 1955, which I am sure you will enjoy.
Blessings and Love
MAHA CHOHAN
Dearly Beloved Friends of great Light:
I come to bring you into the presence of the feeling of God's Compassionate Heart - to bring you, each one, from the periphery of the circle of your own world of experience; from the turbulent surge of the energies of your feelings; from the many thoughts of your minds - into the peace which is the prevailing quality of the heart of the Universe to which we belong.
Have you thought that the previous Chohan of the Seventh Ray, the Beloved Kwan Yin, represents the feminine aspect of the Freedom Flame, the Compassion, the Gentleness, the Reverence and the Grace of the motherhood of God and that Saint Germain, in the direction of the mighty, invocative powers of being, represent the masculine aspect of that Flame and of that Ray?
As we enter into the first acknowledgement of the great Freedom Flame for 1955, it is right and just that we bow before the Goddess of Mercy and acknowledge the activity and radiation which is hers to give.
Ah, little ones, here and there, little shining sparks, part of the great Mercy Flame! On behalf of Lord Maitreya and Lord Buddha; on behalf of the entire Celestial Hierarchy, I say, for fidelity, for constancy and faith, we love you and no matter how small your flame may be this night, we can expand and expand and expand it, for we but require one electron self-consciously given to blanket a planet.
Tonight, as you turn your attention and love toward the Orient, deep within your etheric bodies are written the memories of Golden Ages - Ages when Beauty and Grace, Courtesy and Dignity and Honor were the stamp of every man and every woman; when such beauty was brought forth and is still sustained in the akashic records as the outer world could not conceive possible.
The great Orient itself, you know, represents in its whole consciousness the feminine aspect of the Deity, the consciousness in which is embodied all of the known knowledge of the Cosmic Law awaiting the great drive of the Occident to bring that knowledge into actual manifest form for the blessing of the mass of mankind.
Look you now toward the Orient and see those Temples of blazing light which are the foci of Kwan Yin's Mercy Flame! As you look you will see the shining flags that have been embroidered in exquisite colored silk by the members of the Mercy Temples. From the roof of each temple these flags are attached to the flag on the dome of the great central Temple by means of ropes of gaily colored silk. As each flag in its varying colors flutters in the breeze it carries to the consciousness of the initiate the particular activity to which that lesser temple is dedicated.
As we stand looking toward the main Temple tonight, through its wide open doors we see enter the lovely lady chelas in Chinese dress; all approach without the sound of a footfall, walking on the soft, grassy path. No sound breaks the stillness and serenity of this holy place; the people of the Occident removing their footwear before they enter so as not to mar the silence, as we come closer now we get a view of the great Altar through the open door on which burns the Mercy Flame in all its magnificence, all its beauty and all its peace.
The Beloved Kwan Yin is in deep royal purple tonight. From the left shoulder down to the very hem of her garment are embroidered exquisite crystal butterflies, representative of carrying the light into the world of form. Her hair is done in a high coronet, on each side of which is arranged a great diamond butterfly. Her kimono sleeves are caught at the wrist by silver bands and she wears an exquisite ring in the form of a butterfly. She stands facing the altar tonight, with her attention upon the Flame and from her Presence pour the radiation and power which she has gathered through the centuries in which she has lived, feeding that Flame with her Mercy and Love.
The Beloved Sanat Kumara has come with the Lord Buddha, who is to be his successor. The Lord Gautama wears tonight the deep purple silk of the Royal Family, banded heavily at the hem and cuff with three rows of gold, representative of the Holy Trinity. On his shoulder-length hair he wears a golden band with the open lotus upon the forehead. It is very evident to us who have seen him for the first time in this form of attire that he prepares in some measure for part of the authority and part of the investment of Sanat Kumara's great office before this eighteen year period has expended itself. You will remember those of you who were among us that it was at Peiping that the tremendous calls for mercy rising from the hearts of individuals like yourselves, and, also from the Great White Brotherhood, brought the attention of the Buddha earthward and that the Lord Buddha himself entered the Temple that evening to the great surprise of Kwan Yin and the assembled guests:
The Beloved Saint Germain wears tonight the robe with which you are so familiar in the picture where he uses the gold braid on his garments of the House of Rakoczy. The Beloved Portia is dressed most simply in soft mauve pink - no adornment and no jewelry - with the exception of the crown which she received from the hands of Sanat Kumara as co-sponsor for 1955. The Beloved Zadkiel and Holy Amethyst are in the atmosphere holding the Radiation Flame of Mercy, Love and Compassion over China.
The Beloved Maha Chohan is now entering. He is wearing purple tonight with a magnificent purple turban, fastened by a great amethyst instead of the usual topaz. It would look as though the entire Hierarchy is beginning to conform to the color of whichever Ray is active. This is an innovation in itself. Pallas Athena wears a violet that is almost blue and with her lovely golden hair she is a glorious complement to the Beloved Maha Chohan.
The Beloved Morya is in white, but wears a deep purple sash and a great amethyst adorns his index finger instead of the usual diamond or sapphire. The Beloved Paul, the Venetian is also in purple tonight, with an over cape lined with gold. Beloved Serapis wears the magnificent purple silken attire of a High Priest of the Zoroastrian Court. Beloved Hilarion is in white, banded in deep purple. The beloved Jesus is also in white but over his robe he wears the royal purple cape of the Prince of the House of David, on the back of which is embroidered the open end golden cross of Saint Germain. Mary is in soft mauve pink without adornment.
The entire atmosphere is bathed in deep purple fire. Bathe in it, beloved ones for the entire month and see it enfolding the earth in its Flame of Love, Compassion and Mercy. May God's love enfold you each one.
Kuthumi
