My Beloved Chelas:

I present to you the Blessing of the mighty Lord Lanto in his release of Light at the Transmission of the Flame Ceremony from the Rocky Mountain Retreat.

Beloved Lanto speaks:

"Greetings to my brothers and sisters still walking the Earth in flesh garments. I send you the Love from the Brotherhood at the Royal Teton. This evening I am standing within a gigantic star which has been externalized over the Grand Teton and I shall tell you more about this later. 

We have a glorious assembly tonight at the Royal Teton. As you know, we are preparing for and will soon be in full activity of the half-yearly council. This evening, we had the beloved sponsors and the Enfolding Spirit of the Year in the Flame Room. At the time of the Transmission of the Breath, they were seated before the altar on magnificent chairs, and as I know the details always please your consciousness I shall give them to you. The chairs are made of golden bamboo upholstered in Chinese green silk and truly beautiful. 

Beloved Confucius was attired in a garment of Chinese style of a beautiful green silk, banded at the hem, sleeves and neckline in gold. When the strains of the glorious evening star were played he walked alone to the altar in all his great dignity, and I are sure the Father-Mother God thought 'there is a son of Light who truly embodies Reverence for Life.' You could feel that reverence emanate from his Being as he took his place before the Holy Flame of Precipitation and Reverence for Life. 

The Ceremony was a little unusual this evening, for instead of entering deep within his Being and then breathing upon the Flame, he stood in all his majesty and gave forth a series of glorious mantras which he had learned while he was in a physical garment in the East. He intoned these words and asked the assembly to repeat them after him and as they did so, the very essence which was in these mantras went forth clothed in Reverence for Life. All chelas everywhere, all life upon this Planet, must learn to revere the life in each other. 

The reason this special Ceremony was given this evening is that we are very pleased with the chelas' service in the first six months of the year, but when they are summoned to the Council Meetings and the great Lords of Karma look down upon them, we desire all the chelas to give forth that glorious feeling of Reverence for Life. The hearts of all men upon this Planet are crying for Peace, and in order to have Peace - and Peace there shall be - one must revere the Life in his fellow traveler. Each must enter so deeply into that feeling of reverence that he respects the Christ beating the heart of every other individual - whether he serves by his side or in some remote region of the Earth. This is what the leaders of all nations must learn - Reverence for Life! This is why our beloved Confucius decided that when the attention of the chelas was upon the Transmission of the Flame that he would send out, and ask the assembly to join him, in the expanded radiation of Reverence for Life so that this feeling would enter the consciousness of all life everywhere. 

0 this was so glorious, beloved ones, and I am so grateful to the beloved Confucius he is a mighty Hierarch before whom we all must bow. 

As Beloved Confucius breathed upon the Flame of Precipitation and Reverence for Life, and all of the assembled guests breathed it in, it rose into the atmosphere above the Tetons where I had the privilege of standing within this glorious Star of Light in the gigantic amphitheater. When the Flame reached my Being, it was like a holiday celebration of light - the pulsating Light that one sees in a fireworks display. As it traveled around the track to the various Retreats throughout the Planet, each individual in charge at the Retreat who received the Breath was aware of what was taking place in the service at the Tetons, and they welcomed the Holy Breath with the expanded feeling of reverence. 

As it traveled throughout the Planet Earth, and all through the 24-hour period after the initial pulsation, this Breath which is made up of tiny Stars will enter the vehicles of all mankind and pulsate with the rhythm of the Evening Star. This will do much to bring reverence for life everywhere. 

I ask the chelas who are aware of this activity to go deeply within the Flame of their Beings and love that Flame - love the Holy Christ Self, and ask it to teach you, each one, its feeling of reverence. 

Now, I your humble servant, Lanto, bow in deep humility to the glorious Flame which beats your hearts, each blessed one." 

As I enfold you in the magnificent activity of Reverence for Life, I say

Love and Blessings,

THE MAHA CHOHAN
