Beloved Chelas, 

All spiritual growth takes place in cycles. You - our chelas - have been acting as the receivers and transmitters of the Light for some time, always working from the highest level of consciousness of which you are capable. Your understanding of Cosmic Law and Divine Principle increases the vibrational level of your consciousness, unifying mind with faith. Through the open channel created by the Light, Divine Power may then flow into the world of form, manifesting the Immaculate Concept of Perfection. For this reason, the teachings given to you this year have been primarily concerned with expanding your understanding of some of these Laws and Principles. 

As you increase your awareness and perception, all aspects of your learning naturally move through the complete cycle of the Holy Breath. When you learn something new, you inbreathe a new understanding. Then, you absorb or assimilate the meaning within the lesson. The new awareness must next be expanded into all four lower vehicles, and put into action within your sphere of influence. Then, the higher vibration of consciousness is sealed within your Heart Flame, from which it is projected outward to all life. 

The final result is the activity of the Sacred Fire at a new and higher level of spiritual perception and knowledge. Each time you discern a deeper and more profound meaning in any Cosmic Law, you cycle to a higher level of expression. Thus, the vibrational level of your Being is quickened, increasing the balance of your Threefold Flame Then, the process begins anew. 

I would like to emphasize that spiritual growth, or evolution, is a very natural process. Do not fear your own capabilities as you move forward on your path. Similarly, do not concern yourself with the pattern or speed of your own evolutionary cycles. Your forward movement in the Light is in the most capable of hands, for it is governed by the Presence of God I AM within you. Each step you take in our great adventure is guarded and protected by your Holy Christ Self. By simply doing your best, you are accomplishing far more than you realize with the outer consciousness. 

As we walk the Path of Light together, be reassured that our every step counts for the good of the whole. Beloved ones, I enfold you always in my Love!

John, the Beloved
