Beloved Ones: 

Man, generally speaking, has forgotten the Universal Light substance can and will, by the harmonious use of thought, feeling, spoken word and action, bring into manifestation any constructive form and sustain it so long as the individual require and desire it. The 'curse of Cain' (labor by the sweat of the brow), with its attendant pressures, depletions and frustrations has made the human race slaves to the so-called 'attractions' of the outer world rather than masters of energy with its attendant beneficent expressions. 

In the majority of cases, this thin stream of life which flows through 'the silver cord' to man which he utilizes to sustain his body's life, as well as the responsibility he has undertaken through family association, is pitiful when one realizes that even the least of those who suffer from the ills that beset the race of life have access to as much of this palpable, obedient, benevolent Substance as they can use to fulfill their every constructive desire. Remember, dear ones, that Illumined Faith is a great creative power. 'According to your Faith be it done unto you; Faith can move mountains', but 'Faith without works is dead'. 

Initiations, as you know, assume many guises - sometimes in the form of ill health, or loss of material gain or property, separation from a loved one, or, again great suffering and irritation through personality conflicts, and the innumerable so-called 'woes' to which man is presently heir. When these experiences occur, the individual feels he is going through this period of testing alone and unaided. Be assured, dear children, that the conscious chela is never alone. An Ascended Master is always in attendance when these initiations take place, lending his love and light to uphold the Illumined Faith of the chela until he passes through this ordeal! 

You have been told that this physical appearance world is a schoolroom. You are given the text of the Spiritual Law then comes the testing period of comprehension and use of that Law and, if successful, you move to a higher grade. The difference between life's schoolroom and the recognized school of Earth is that in the latter the student knows and is prepared for the examination, whereas Life tests her children without warning. I say to you, be ever alert and keep your Lamp filled with the oil of Cosmic Illumined Faith which flows to you through prayerful contemplation and attention upon the Spiritual Hierarchy who are more interested in your progress on the Path of attainment than your outer minds can cognize. 

What greater proof of their Love that they have forsworn Nirvana to remain in the atmosphere of Earth to assist this Sweet Planet and all her evolutions to take the initiations required so that the Divine Edict for this system shall be fulfilled. My love enfolds you constantly.

Love and Blessings,

THE MAHA CHOHAN
