Easter Sunday

Beloved Kuthumi

April 10, 1966

Introduction to Ceremony on Easter 

Children of the Light, I, Kuthumi, have the great privilege of giving you some of the pageantry which precedes the appearance of the Master Jesus in your midst. I invite you to come with me in your etheric consciousness to the Temple of the Resurrection over the Holy Land, where great preparations have been in progress for the last few days, for the honoring of the Feast of the Resurrection, which our beloved Master so indelibly imprinted upon the consciousness of the masses. 

Now, still all your lower vehicles, and entering into the Secret Place of the Most High, permit me to tell you something of the Sixth Sphere: 

It is in this Sphere where there is gathered all the prayers and hopes and aspirations of the entire human race from the beginning of time. Here are Angel Devas and Guardians of Power who volunteered to enter the Aura of our sun at the time when the first incarnation of man took place, with the full knowledge that while there is a heart that beats there will be some remembrance of gratitude to the Source of Life, no matter by what name it should be called. 

And so, at the descent of the Manu and Lord Michael with the holy innocents, as all knelt in prayer, a soft pink cloud of energies carrying the sweet pure praises of the innocent rose to Heaven, and was drawn into the Sixth Sphere, and it became the nucleus of the Flame of Love and Peace around which the Ruby Temple was later built. 

Focus of the Prayers and Aspirations of the Race 

From that point on, beautiful Angelic Beings constantly attended the prayerful heart and the glorious rituals and ceremonies of the civilizations, and gathered within their own auras this pink radiation of Love Divine, until today the entire mass momentum of aspiration and gratitude toward Divinity rises upward in an ever-increasing spiral of Pink Flame from the Ruby Temple. This is the substance which Beloved Mary and the lovely Lady Nada direct in answer to calls for assistance, healing and peace, and which the Angelic Host who belong to this Temple take and wind around the inner bodies of those who know how to call for its Essence. 

However, following a Dispensation which has been granted, it is being directed to all mankind, and we shall appreciate so much if you beloved ones, who know your way thither will join us, both in directing and focusing the Rays into the atmosphere of Earth, and in bathing your own inner bodies, your homes, your worlds, your brain consciousness, in those electronic rays of pure Divine Love. 

And now, looking around the Sixth Realm you will see that it is blazing with Pure White Light and approaching the Resurrection Temple, one hears the muted strains of the songs which are sung and played in the physical appearance world, with the exception that there is absolute perfection in their rendition. It is the momentum of this adoration to God which is pulsating in the Etheric Realm and activated by the Angelic Host. 

The Resurrection Temple 

Approaching the great Temple itself, we note that the doors are open wide and Angelic attendants stand in waiting, yes, for you and others from the physical plane who have been brought here by their Sponsors. THE BRIDGE chelas are to be given the great privilege of entering the innermost Temple, for you know there are corridors surrounding this, which soften the Radiation to the capacity of the chelas who are permitted therein. 

At the entrance to the Inner Temple, you will note the majestic and powerful Seraphim on either side, and as each chela is permitted to cross the threshold, a beautiful cape of opalescent material, embroidered in an Easter Lily, the Symbol of this Temple, is placed about the shoulders of each one. Looking closer, you will see that these garments are immediately precipitated as the Seraphic attendant raises her hands. Yes, these are Ladies from the Court of Holy Mother Mary, and it was Blessed Mary's idea that you receive this protective and enfolding mantle to be worn throughout the Ceremony today, and when you return to your regular habitats they will be returned to the Universal as you pass through the outer doors of this Temple. 

Oh, feel the glorious radiance of Love which has formed these garments! 

As you proceed down the aisle you will be assigned your places by other Angelic Beings and as you are quietly seated, you will kindly contemplate the Immortal Flame of Life which is your Identity, as the Music of the Spheres goes forth in soft, exquisite tones. Please remain in this attitude of Listening Grace until you are advised to do otherwise... 

(Please pause here) 

Kindly stand in reverent attitude as we hear a glorious processional being played on the organ as the Chohans come down the aisle and take their places before the Altar, then the music swells and we know as "The Song of India" is played, that our great Lord of the World, Gautama, is approaching from a contemplation room behind the Altar. We note that he is accompanied by our Holy Regent, Sanat Kumara, and the Buddha, Lord Divine. 

As they remain standing before their Throne Chairs, we hear the strains of the Keynote of the Retreat at Ceylon, "At Dawning" and see our so loved Holy Ĉolus accompanied by his son, the Maha Chohan, and they take their places on the Altar. 

The feeling of expectancy intensifies, as we hear the Angels sing "Ave Maria" and we realize that Beloved Mary is about to enter. She is accompanied by mighty Victory and John, the Beloved. They have been given special places of honor close to the actual Flame of Resurrection. 

The Flame of Resurrection 

You note that the Flame of Resurrection has been enfolded today in a giant Flame Flower, the Easter Lily. The organ music is now that of the Keynote of Beloved Jesus and is rising to a mighty crescendo as the Flame Flower spreads its Petals, and in the very midst stands the Radiant Presence of the Beloved Jesus. As he sends forth the Radiation of his Being you will hear his words... 

Beloved Jesus speaks 

Oh, thou omnipotent one, the Supreme Source of all Life, I salute thee in reverent gratitude for the privilege thou didst bestow upon me, in permitting me to take embodiment on the Plane of Earth, there to leave a lasting Example of thy Will for all men. The hosannas which go forth this day in exultant tones are in praise of thee, oh Holy Creator of all there is. This Servant's humble prayer is that the Radiation which doth blanket the Planet Earth today will enable an increasing number of thy children to touch the hem of thy garment, and in so doing will know that thou art all there is, the Divine Principle throughout the Universe. I bow your head in humility before thy majestic Presence. 

Beloved Guests, please be seated.  

Honor the Supreme Source of All 

In all the buoyant feeling of the Risen Christ I greet you and enfold you in my Love. The Earth is a much brighter Planet in the firmament today as the hearts of men feeling the stirring of the Christ within, due to the Celebration of the Feast of the Resurrection, are more receptive to spiritual radiation. Be you mindful that this occasion is to honor the Supreme Source of All. Each of us who has attained our Eternal Freedom has done so through the use of the Resurrection Flame, and we are all part of the Body of the One God. Hallowed be his name! 

When one says "Our Father which art in Heaven" he does not refer to some separate and distinct Kingdom, but to the very Chalice in his being, in which is anchored the Presence of God. 

Children, children, oh accept that you are God in embryo, and I would add that you could burst the tomb and stand forth the Risen Christ this very instant. I beg of you do not accept this fact in a half-hearted manner, but as the Truth! Feel, oh feel, the Presence of God. 

Speaking of acceptance - every blade of grass, every shrub, every plant this day feels, and accepts, the vibrance of the Resurrection Flame, and those which have yet to burst the tomb of their dormancy will acknowledge and accept, and be much further along in the manifestation of their perfect expression, as a result of the activity of the Resurrection Flame, and of all the Beings who serve so ceaselessly to resurrect the Good in all life, everywhere. 

And now, in all the Power at my Command I say: 

Burst the tomb of the human!

Stand forth the Risen Christ!

You ARE the Christ - accept it! 

 

BE STILL AND KNOW 

Be still, my child',

And know that "I AM" God;

That I, who from my bosom,

Gave thee life,

Will ever guard thee from

All earthly strife,

So may ye know

That "I AM" one with thee;

For in thy heart

My Flame of Love is burning bright;

And in thy calls to me,

Thy great sincerity

Will draw forth Pow'r

To raise all life into my Light.
