SERVING WITH THE ASCENDED MASTERS
By Beloved Maha Chohan
Beloved ones, the sweetness of the opportunity of reaching the conscious mind of sincere and earnest hearts fills my Spirit with gratitude before the Heart of all Life, and I welcome the invitation which has issued from your own life energy by which I may enter your world and become a companion upon your pathway.
It is a beautiful experience for us who have so long been denied entrance into the minds and feelings of the race whom we serve, to see the doors of the individual consciousness open, pressed by the Flame of Love and Service, and held wide by the Faith of the individual Spirit, which now commanding the soul shall rise in the mastery which God intended and walk in full Freedom, in communion with the Perfected Beings, in service to the bound. We bring Freedom that you may dispense it. We bring Comfort that you may be such a Comforting Presence, and in all ways and in all manners, not only representing us but embodying our Nature, for it is only through you that we may stand manifest to the world of men.
To those who have gathered in the Upper Chamber, stood within our Presence and partaken of the Spiritual Truth which we present is entitled to the opportunity to bear witness to the Visitation, not by word but by living. From the time that the wheel of maya closed the consciousness of mankind away from that Realm of great Perfection in which the wise and free abide, the Law has required that the service which we would render must be conducted through the consciousness of those who stand above the masses, who are yet in the world but no longer a part of it.
Your responsibility and your opportunity are both without parallel, for wherefore is our profit if you profess communion with us and yet embody not that which mankind seeks, which is the Nature of God. Communion goes further, my children, than the word than even the visible Presence, and no man - no matter how dense the clothing of the senses is so lost that he cannot perceive the embodied nature of those who have entered into the feeling of the Brothers and Sisters who form the Great White Brotherhood, and who have voluntarily taken upon themselves the obligation to accept chelas and students and have voluntarily accepted the karma of each such one.
In my position it is required that the Masters of Wisdom apply always for the acquiescence of my office before the accepting of a chela into their own worlds. The reason for this lies in the fact that Cosmically speaking, it is my great joy, privilege and honor to draw the great energies from the Sun and delegate them each according to their proper channel of expression, and knowing the priceless and precious Gift of Life for what it is, each electron pulsating with the potent powers of Eternal Life and all the mastery of the Sacred Fire, I can realize well what it is to invest energies in a lifestream or in a Cause, knowing well the balance that is required for such investment, and impersonally weighing the possible benefit, not only to the individual soul but the race against the sacrifice entailed by the drawing of the attention and the energies of a Master Presence into the focalized interest of one individual.
