Ah, my dear and precious friends, how wonderful to visit with you as you are assembled here on Long Island, to receive the benediction of the Spiritual Hierarchy, so that you may expand your consciousness, and accepting your responsibility, diffuse the Blessings to all mankind. 

How glorious this Class is! Through your active participation and reverent attention to the Releases which we have been privileged to give, your auras have greatly expanded so that now your sphere of influence has tripled its circumference. It is possible for this expanded Radiation to continue, and I know you will lend every effort to do so. I believe you are aware of the fact now that your consciousness has expanded, that it should be relatively easy for you to do this, and follow our Instructions and be obedient thereto! Naturally this brings great joy to my Heart and to all the Members of the Spiritual Hierarchy in the Higher Realms of Service. How I love this Sweet Earth, and every ounce of energy you expend in purifying her and the evolutions hereon, expands my Love and Gratitude to each of you. 

As you know, we chose the Thought Form of the Year as the Pattern for this Class too, and it is my happy experience to tell you that there has never been a year when the chelas have so wholeheartedly added their energies to outpicture it for the benefaction of the evolutions of this Earth. 

Today, looking at this Planet with the Inner Sight, "I AM" so grateful to tell you that the Form created at this Class has expanded and become one with the Pattern of the Year which you and the Spiritual Hierarchy are energizing, according to Cosmic Edict. While the resultant benefits which will take place as a result thereof are not yet outpicturing on the Earth, except in minor instances, the Inner Pattern of Perfection, through the Power of Pure Divine Love and the process of Transmutation has been set up, and will remain a sustained form, until this Blessed Planet is truly Freedom's Holy Star! 

Picture for a moment this glorious Globe of Pulsating Violet Fire, not as something with a passive equilibrium, but blazing, brilliant Fire like unto the intensity of the effulgence of the Sun, within the encompassing Heart of Pure Divine Love, this, too, shining forth in all shades of Pink, from the most delicate to the deep, deep hue of intense Divine Love! 

This Thought Form is not something that is far, far off in the blue yonder - it is right here - your individual lifestreams are a part of it, and everywhere a chela desires to participate in its outpicturing, the Light from their hearts shines forth and becomes a part of the activation thereof. The picture which one sees, when viewed on a planetary scale, shows the chelas reminiscent of twinkling Stars, newly born into the Universe. However, your Light has always been present but heretofore has been cloaked to a degree in human concepts. Ah, lovely chelas, "I AM" so very grateful to you for your willingness and happiness as you employ the Divine Alchemy of Transmutation for the Purification of the Earth, readying her for the Cosmic Initiation which she must shortly take. The more purification which can be accomplished, in yourselves, and in all mankind, the less chaos will result, and that is the goal for which we are all serving. 

At this point I would like to counsel you that while much of a rather frightening nature has been disseminated throughout the student body, there is absolutely no cause for fear of any kind, when one is serving the Light and has turned his lower vehicles humbly to the direction of his own Silent Watcher, the Christ Presence. You have been told this before, but it is of sufficient importance to bear repetition. 

Why think you the new and advanced beautiful Holy Trinity Picture was brought to your attention at this time? Most certainly one of the reasons is to illustrate to you, and visual teaching is very impressive, that the human is receding from prominence, and the Christ Self is emerging in great dignity to be the acting Presence in your beings. You will remember that the Light from the Heart of the mighty Lord Lanto was visible to the physical sight, and this can be your own personal experience as the Light shall shine forth from your glorious Golden Being, which is indeed growing to full stature. 

Another aid in your evolution which is very pleasing to me is the Lamp symbolizing the Maltese Cross, my personal Electronic Pattern. And I wish to tell you that each one has been blessed by my Love and Gratitude, and all the others which will be available for those who desire to have them, will carry the same Blessing. Contemplation of this Expression will bring the chela into closer feeling with the Violet Fire and the Emblem of Spiritual Freedom! 

Dear ones, you know that today we enter the Retreat of the Beloved Maha Chohan at Ceylon, and in order for the conscious participation of the chelas here present in expanded activity, I shall act as Annotator of that which is to take place at the close of this Address. As you know, the Transmission Service is usually held in the evening, although the Flame itself is energized specifically for twenty-four hours at the beginning of the period. However, Beloved Maha Chohan will officiate at Ceylon in this capacity as we conclude today's Service. 

Now, let us travel in consciousness to that Island, at the Southern tip of India, and I shall describe to you what will transpire: 

For the refreshment of your consciousness I remind you that the Flame of Comfort resembles the Water Lily, in pattern, and as it is energized it glows with a Pink Radiance. Beloved Maha Chohan will stand within the Flame of Comfort and as he inbreathes that Flame, it will be received on the inbreath of all assembled at the Retreat, and in regular procedure the out-breath will carry it to all those who are taking part in this activity throughout the Planet. 

This Activity is a very sacred one for the Energies of the Maha Chohan are fed into all life upon the Earth, to all the Kingdoms. You can scarcely envision what an amount of God Power this entails, and to magnetize that Light requires a tremendous dedicated and consecrated Service to the Supreme Source of all Light, our Father-Mother God. 

The Maha Chohan will be attired in a magnificent white robe, and like his Predecessor, will wear a turban, definitive of his exalted Office. Beloved Holy Æolus, who has been in residence at the Etheric Shamballa all week, will inbreathe the Holy Essence of Comfort and Peace as it travels to America, and you will please feel that you are consciously breathing in unison with this mighty Being. 

Beloved Æolus is also wearing a White Turban with a Topaz in the center... the Topaz representing Peace through God Illumination. The Jewel in the Turban of the Beloved Maha Chohan is a Pink Ruby, symbolic of the Comfort and Divine Love of his Office. It is the prerogative of the Officiate at Ceylon to wear the gem of his choosing, indicating the specific activity which he is energizing. 

The Chohans, save myself, are at this moment assembled at Ceylon, Blessed Kwan Yin representing me, and as they look upon the White Light flowing into the Being of the Maha Chohan, the color of their Ray will enter into and become one with his Light and a glorious Rainbow of Light will result. Each Chohan is attired in pure White garments, choosing to wear a glorious Jewel in the color indicative of his or her Ray, and you can be sure that a magnificent Festival of Light will ensue. 

Holy Æolus, the Cosmic Holy Spirit, chose to remain at Shamballa, giving due honor to the Beloved Paul at this Transmission Ceremony, and as he lovingly and gratefully received the Comfort Flame from Ceylon he will energize it by his momentum in this Service. You can be sure that henceforth your feeling of active participation in the Transmission Service will be greatly intensified. 

The Service of the Angelic and Devic Kingdom which is specifically active this week is transcendent. Today each is carrying a beautiful Water Lily and in the center is one of the Doves which has been under your direct guidance. All week these Doves have been resting on the wings of the Cosmic Dove in the Forcefield over Long Island. When you inbreathe the Flame from Ceylon, they will encircle the Planet with the Essence of Peace and Comfort and they will continue this Service throughout the day and night, returning to Long Island to receive the Blessing for themselves and all life, at the conclusion of the Classes tomorrow! 

I now request that "At Dawning" be played to further attune your beings to the Ceylon Retreat, to Beloved Holy Æolus and the Maha Chohan, at the conclusion of which the Breathing Ceremony will take place, followed by the Benediction which I shall be privileged to energize through the Director of today's Services.

Beloved Friends, I love you and I humbly bow in deep gratitude to the Christ Presence of each of you.          

Your Friend, Saint Germain.
