By the Ascended Master Kuthumi

There has been a detailed discussion of the word "momentum” and the various talents and developments of the lifestreams, their various likes and dislikes, their affinities, aversions, etc., and these are very lightly referred to by the student as a "gathered momentum" in a certain direction. The student further realizes that "momentum" is a constant repetition of certain actions and reactions toward a certain qualification of energy which gains in volume and intensity by such repetition and, therefore, becomes a pressure of reserved energy that acts almost independently of the conscious volition of the individual. 

Kindliness, humility, genuine warmth of heartfelt feeling are developed by the lifestream at first through very definite conscious effort, and then, as the radiation becomes more a part of the individual, the momentum of good makes the sustained harmony almost automatic in its expression. 

Momentums of discord must be dissolved 

Every Being, from the electron to the Godhead, expands by his or her conscious absorption of the God energy, his particular quality and directs it according to the free will of the self-conscious life. There is NO substitute for "gathered momentum" of a quality. Each person, ascended or unascended, represents today the sum total of his or her own energy qualified through the centuries according to the individual's choice some people have a momentum of discord! 

In the New Day all previously charged momentums of discord must be dissolved and then replaced through the conscious effort of the individual by the drawing forth of the God energy and a setting up of new qualities and new expressions that are in accord with God's Will. Here is where we come to a very marvelous and little understood explanation of how unascended beings are chosen by the Hierarchy and the Lords of Karma to assist in the bringing forth of the Perfection which will form the pattern for the New Day. 

How chelas are chosen 

The gathered momentum of each lifestream in any constructive channel forms a great "stock pile" of energy or force which makes such an one a tremendous pressure for good through the already developed inner nature and the Masters USE that momentum through the instruments already prepared with certain faculties, which make them natural channels for the work at hand. It is like utilizing experienced actors instead of absolutely untrained people for the expression of their work. For instance, an individual who has taught for centuries is an easier instrument for the Masters to use to deliver a lecture than it would be for him to take one who had never built a momentum of teaching and try to arrange the inner bodies in such a manner that the pressure of his thought and feeling might be expressed forcibly and well. 

That is why all groups of chelas and aspirants are chosen, not by their present outer expression but by the momentum of inner talents and qualities that can be utilized in a certain locality, blended with others for the greatest good of all. 

Your power of precipitation 

Another aspect of this Law will be found in the precipitation of opulence, beauty, etc. When a lifestream has held a desire for a certain number of years or embodiments, they form in the ethers a Cup or outline representing such a powerful desire, whether it be for a home, or on a larger scale for a Universal Brotherhood or a mass education for the young. These forms are already cut out of the Universal Life Substance and when they are in agreement with the constructive plan of the Universe, one or more of the Ascended Masters may ensoul such a desire, thought and feeling form, or vision with their full gathered Cosmic momentum and power of precipitation through the lifestream who has held such a vision, and in that manner bring it into manifestation.
