The building and sustaining of a personal atmosphere in which your soul can unfold its latent possibilities, is not only within the scope of your lifestream's present capacity, but is also an important though unrecognized requisite to progress.

The power to visualize and create, through the mental faculty, a wall or garment of pure white light around the energy of the lifestream, must be developed either here or hereafter. In the realm of the disembodied, the environment and necessities of the soul are dependent on the power of the thoughtforms generated and sustained by the individual. In the realm of the ascended master activity, all cosmic service, manifestation and sustained activity are resultant from the concentrated controlled thought, energized by the substance of feeling, which creates a star, a sun, a temple, a planet, or a self-luminous diamond of iridescent hue!

Again and again the ascended masters have stressed the visualization of and conscious creation of the protective circle of flame around the energy of the lifestream. It disconnects, or short-circuits, so to speak, the discordant energy waves which otherwise would be tied into and become a part of the mass pressure of every lifestream living in the present stratum of unascended beings. The energy flowing from your God Presence I AM, through your lifestream is constantly meeting, mingling with and being affected by other energies drawn, projected or released, consciously or unconsciously, by other facets of life. The moment that your energy contacts another flow of energy through a person or a condition, one of two things happens:

1) Either your energy is re-qualified by the energy which is met and connects with yours, or

2) The power of your energy is the master that controls, transmutes and redirects the energy toward which it is focused.

The ascended master is always the controlling power of any energy which his lifestream contacts during the progress of his spirit through any experience in life. The student, who has drawn a greater power of energy through his calls and invocations, who does not visualize himself enfolded within this Garment of White Light, finds that when his energy meets a discordant condition, the greater energy which he has drawn, is re-qualified by the discord and causes him more difficulty than one who has less energy around him.

If the student had only the energy from his own God Presence coming to him, the natural flow of that perfect life through him would regulate, supply and purify his own accumulation within six months to a year; but as he is being constantly bombarded by invisible streams of force to which he has connected himself through his attention, the pure energy released from his God Presence is visibly and tangibly affected, and tends to keep him bound within his chains.

Sit down undisturbed and turn your attention to your God Presence I AM. Visualize a wall of flame around, through your own mental capacity. Accept joyously that radiant Garment of Light so that your feeling fills it with happiness and gratitude for its protection. Let the energy from your Presence flow through you undisturbed for five minutes, washing you clean, then begin definitely to charge the energy within that protective ring of blazing light - with the ascended masters’ God Control of all energy with which you come in contact, whether it is in your business, social, or spiritual life, and charge this energy with power, master, purity, peace, harmony, beauty, etc.

Take no quality into your world which is charged with energy waves expressing less than perfection. Thus, your energy becomes qualified with God's Perfection and your electronic circle or aura, is a constant guard around you waking and sleeping. Every master is so enfolded and the oval of light in which they appear is the consciously drawn, visualized and sustained activity of God Energy qualified to master all energy of a lower vibration, wherever such energy is catapulted against or connected with the lifestream of such a master.

No man can live unto himself! Your energy connects with the store clerk when the substance of the purchases is placed within your hand. It connects with the individual with whom you shake hands. It connects with all your contacts over the telephone, through mental force, or to whom you write or with whom you associate. It connects with your radio commentators and with authors, through the power of attention!  It is, therefore, always either acting upon or registering the radiation of the person or condition contacted.

This is true of every part of life you contact and I cannot stress too powerfully the cultivation of controlled attention and the visualizing of these activities presented for your freedom!

Ascended Master El Morya
