The Shamballa Letter
VOLUME 19, Number 19 May 9, 1997
Beloved chelas,
Last month there were many of you who found the work with the Shamballa Letters difficult. Some of you were unable to find the truth in my words for they seemed to be focused upon the negative quality of fear. Do you not see that where you now stand in your spiritual unfoldment, you must face everything within yourself which is still holding you back from the full light of your own God Perfection?
As I continue to share with you my insights concerning the Laws of Life this year, at times my words may seem harsh. This beloved ones, is not my intention but you must understand there may be times when the truth will be very difficult for you to accept. I know very well of what I speak, for as Saul of Tarsus, my inability and unwillingness to see and accept the truth caused me to see nothing at all for a time, except for the error of my ways.
I refused to recognize the Christ and went about my daily activities doing everything I could possibly do to deny him. Directed by my own personal fears, I spent a great deal of time bringing pain and distress to others. That is, until that faithful day when a great light from heaven flashed all around me and beloved Jesus spoke, "Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?" As I attempted to clear the void, the nothingness that had replaced the brilliant light, I asked who was speaking to me, even though within the deepest recesses of my being I already knew.
Over the next several days I spent all of my time going back over everything I had done thus far in my life. I examined in great detail both the good and the bad and when Ananias, one of the Lord's Disciples came to me and laid his hands upon me, I was instantly filled with Holy Spirit and could see clearly, perhaps for the first time in my life!
Throughout the remainder of my days on Earth I spent my time traveling much of the known world spreading the truth and reality of the many teachings and good works beloved Jesus gave to the people of Earth.
I understand very well how difficult it sometimes is to become the Presence of the Christ and see God in all things when so much darkness seems to surround you. However, you must remember it is usually immediately after you feel the farthest away from God, that you take a major step forward in your spiritual development. This is what happened to me and I AM so grateful that I was never forsaken, not even for a moment, and when I was ready my life truly did change. Stretch forth your hands, beloved ones, for we are waiting always to assist you on your journey toward enlightenment and full reunion with God. Until next week count your blessings and know you are loved by many magnificent beings of light, both ascended and unascended!
I AM Hilarion,
one of your many teachers and guides
