Beloved of God.

I greet you today with all the Love of our Father-Mother God. For centuries it has been my privilege and honor to hold your beloved Three-Fold Flames within my aura, energizing them and holding them steady, even when it seemed as though they might flicker into mere sparks through the lack of attention of the outer man. Your God Parents love you to such an extent that I have been permitted to dedicate my very Life to keeping your Flames alive through the Power of Love!

I would like to remind you of the very beginning of the Sacred Threefold Flames which dwell within your heart centers. Before the coming of Beloved Sanat Kumara, the Light within the Earth had diminished to such an extent that within the hearts of the members of the race there dwelt only the tiniest spark of Divinity. Yet in the eyes of Sanat Kumara, it was enough. As he prepared to descend to the Earth-plane, he sent three of his great sons, one carried the Flame of Love, a second, the Flame of Wisdom: and the third brought the Flame of Power. When all was ready for the coming of the Great Lord, a portion of each of the, Three Sacred Flames was implanted within the tiny Sparks in the hearts of every member of the human race. Thus was the beginning of the Balance of the Three Aspects of God within each one of you! Such is the Perfected Love of Sanat Kumara, and his three great sons, who remain with the Earth to this day, and who have vowed to assist the sons of the Earth, even until the last member of the race of men ascends into the Godhead from whence they came!

You know that Beloved Lord Gautama and I are also the sons of Sanat Kumara - although adopted - and we are so grateful that I would not even attempt to put this into mere words! However, I want to rekindle within your hearts this same gratitude and love, because as I AM to the Great Lord, so dear chelas are you! Consider this in the depths of your Beings until you realize the intensification of Love, Wisdom, and Power such a realization brings to your Sacred Heart Flames!

In the Light of Spirit, there is truly no difference between being "born" to a particular Spiritual Being, or being "adopted" by such a One. Every individualized consciousness which is created by God, and becomes a living soul, is a Son or Daughter of God, and is loved by God regardless of the individual parenting from which that lifestream became manifest. So must it come to be among all the people of Earth. All children are your children, as well. This must be understood, and intensified, until your auras expand and expand, even as has mine own, to encompass all life that dwells within your spheres of radiation.

And now if I only had the words to express the Joy I feel when I see your Heart Flames burning so brightly because of your own conscious use of your God-given energies! Truly, today you are a joy to behold!

Many centuries ago, when Sanat Kumara sent forth his call to Earth, searching for Spirits who would be willing to work hand-in-hand and side-by-side with him to redeem humankind, my brother Gautama and my humble self were two Spirits on the planet who were willing to answer and commit at that time. Beloved Gautama and I had little knowledge then of the immensity of the task which we were about to undertake; nor did we have any sense, really, of how lonely the work would sometimes feel! Yet, we worked together then, and we work together still!

Remember, we, too, were bound by the same weight of physical garments under which you presently work, and for embodiment after embodiment, we stood behind the same veil of maya which presently limits your vision. Yet, we were the Guardian Spirits on the planet, and so perseverance became our watchword and theme.

Whenever we were in embodiment, our lives passed hour-by-hour and day-by-day, just as yours do now. We, too, had to overcome the illusion of outer appearance, one situation at a time. With each erroneous appearance conquered; with each atom of energy re-qualified; with each opportunity used to increase the Light of our Father-Mother God upon the planet, our knowledge grew steadily and our Heart Flames burned ever more brightly until, at last, we had proved that we were indeed Masters of our own Energy. So it was that Beloved Gautama and I attained our ascensions!

So it shall be for each one of you!
