Beloved Chelas of the One Light,
I greet you with the fullness of my Love, and offer you profound gratitude for the opportunity to address you this day. Following the active and invigorating energies of the First Ray that you experienced yesterday, I ask you to give gratitude for the beautiful life-force that flows through your beings as a result of Its gifts and qualities. Close your eyes, breathe in deeply, and then let the breath flow from your beings, carrying your gratitude to all the Beings and Powers of the First Ray. Truly, beloved Archangel Michael, the great Master El Morya, and all who serve on the First Ray pour forth the life-energies of the Father God in endless streams of Light upon the Earth!
Now, if you will breathe in deeply once again, I ask that
—before you release this breath—you absorb and clothe it in the quieter, more reflective qualities of the Second Ray of God Illumination and Wisdom. As you know, this is the Ray upon which I serve. Under Its influence, one takes the time to sort through the magnificent ideas and inspirations that are released from the First Ray. At the great Teton Retreat, each member of the Brotherhood spends time in contemplation and reflection upon his or her particular field of endeavor. They do this to precipitate and develop new ideas that will assist them to further their abilities to serve.All of our members are teachers of the highest order. They serve chelas and students of Light from all over the planet Earth, teaching them to also precipitate ideas which will, in turn, help them in their work.
A large part of successful teaching rests in the ability to discern what is useful to your special field of endeavor. Then you must release that which you do not need, so it may be used elsewhere. At our Retreat, we work with all Seven Rays, and there are teachers qualified to do this. There is great camaraderie and sharing of ideas and methods. This is to provide a coordinated network of teaching through which those from every Ray may learn to work in concert with all others for the good of the whole.
It is my desire to give you an overview of how the Spiritual Hierarchy and all of our Brotherhoods and Retreats work together for the highest good of the entire planet Earth and all of her evolutions, without sacrificing our individuality and special abilities. The understanding of how all the pieces of a puzzle fit together is necessary, but it is not necessary to know and be all things as an individual. It is only asked that you fulfill your part of the Divine Plan in order to help complete the overall picture; the purified planet Earth, a shining Star of Spiritual Freedom, ready to take her place in the Divine Plan of this entire universe.
There is a further step to be taken after you have selected the ideas you feel are suitable to your Divine plan. That step comes under the influence of the Third Ray of God's Divine Love, which will form the matrix into which you will project your new idea. Tomorrow you will be working with Lord Maitreya, who, as the Cosmic Buddha, holds the Three-fold Flames of the entire race within His Aura. What more perfect opportunity could be presented to each one of you than to magnetize his radiation into your Heart-Flames, precipitating that cosmic force of Love to bring your plans to fruition?
I have told you that no matter how far you come in your evolution, there will always be a 'far superior being' who has passed this way before you, and waits to teach and guide you onward. One day, not too far distant, you will stand before me, and say how happy you are that you fulfilled your special part of this great plan, for you will see its beauty and perfection manifest! I await that day with great anticipation!
