Beloved Lord Maha Chohan

Transmission – March 16^th, 1957

Beloved and blessed children of God seeking comfort for yourselves and seeking comfort for the Earth and its evolutions, I love you for your presence upon this Earth at this time. I love you because you desire to give comfort to the peoples of the Earth and to all of its kingdoms. I love you because you have honored us, all who represent the Spiritual Hierarchy by accepting us as real Beings of love and of light. 

Blessed ones, we have served for many, many centuries with only a handful of initiates conscious of our individuality and being. Only within the last hundred and fifty years or so has that veil been drawn aside by brave, courageous souls until more and more to the outer consciousness and on the screen of your life has been revealed the Presence behind all those constructive endeavors that bless the evolutions evolving in the Earth, on its surface and in its atmosphere. 

Now you cannot have an intelligent activity without a conscious Intelligence behind it and the metaphysical aspect of spirit without the Being who has created and sustained that spirit or divine nature is lacking in Divine logic. It is also lacking for an individual to accept a virtue on any one of the seven rays without realizing that there is a conscious Director of that virtue to the individual or into any conditions into which it is invoked. The Godhead himself, by whatever name mankind has chosen to call him, is a thinking and feeling Being and the Aura around the Godhead is filled with the virtues of that Perfected Being or pair of Beings which forms the nature or Holy Spirit of that Godhead to that Universe or Planetary System. 

Now, the individual consciousnesses belonging to the various planets of a sun who have ascended into their Eternal Freedom, or who have never taken embodiment on any planet, but who have qualified cosmically to serve as channels, conductors and directors of the Holy Spirit of God - the Father-Mother have learned (even as I have done for the Earth) through experimentation with the various qualities that represent Comfort to Life. 

They drew primal energy (even as you are doing now while listening to me or reading my words) and found that the capacity to hear that which I AM saying is life Qualified with the ability to hear. 

As these Beings drew primal life, they also learned to create around themselves an aura like that around the Godhead which contains all the virtues of that Godhead, and when all those virtues are embodied in an Intelligence, that One is ready to apply for, or volunteer to become, a channel for the Holy Spirit to any planet of the system. 

Of course, I AM not the first One to represent the Holy Spirit to this Earth there have been feminine Beings who have held this Office preceding my ascendency to it... Radiating the power of the Holy Spirit to any planet is not necessarily a masculine office, but, beloved ones, it is our service to try, wherever it is possible, to create in, through and around you by the proximity of our radiation to you as you hear or read our words, or as you contemplate us and send your attention toward us... As you do this, we, in turn, immediately turn our attention toward you... It is our desire to create the Holy Spirit from within the Flame in your hearts until it is more powerful by far than all the pressures of the human creations that are around you. 

This attainment of the powers of the Holy Spirit is an absolutely possible feat that has been accomplished by many, many unascended beings who have walked the earth and have been a comfort to other lifestreams... As we have so often said, all of desires to be comforted, but it is quite a different thing when you apply for the privilege and honor of being a comforting presence to the life evolving on the planet where you presently abide. 

Beloved ones, in anticipation of this meeting tonight, from all over the known world initiates have been coming toward Ceylon for some time and many well known men and women who are figures in the world's international affairs have been my guests; they have visited the upper floors of our plantation and partaken of our hospitality, but have not entered within the heart of the Retreat, or taken part in the activities. 

The Flame room is all done in pink, walls and floor. As I have told you before, the pictures of the Seven Chohans hang on the walls - my seven boys - whom I love so well and who serve with me so selflessly... the Flame of Comfort is pink primarily, but there is also an activity of gold within it, because there is so much of the essence of healing contained within it. 

The Beloved Pallas Athens has offered to stand within that Flame tonight and greet our great guests as they come... she wears a beautiful robe of buttercup yellow very, very simple in design and following, as usual, the Grecian fashion. Her hair is arranged high on her head with small green ivy leaves woven into it as a gesture of love and courtesy to myself. She is now standing by the altar where the Comfort Flame is already blazing. 

The Flame Room is all in pink, walls and carpet. Above it in the atmosphere is the amphitheatre built by the beloved Builders of Form in the form of a dove all in a beautiful shade of soft pink, with seats arranged in the wrings and body, in pink also. As you know, only the Ascended Ones and the great Beings who are visitors from other stars and planets have places in the Flame room. Some initiates and advanced chelas are also seated within that room. All others are seated in the beautiful amphitheatre, which presently extends over Asia with one wing hovering over Asia Minor where human disturbances are manifesting themselves at present; the other wing just touching the rim of the Pacific. 

The majority of the Great Ones are robed in a soft shade of pink tonight, with the exception of the Beloved Pallas Athens and myself who are wearing the buttercup yellow: my costume being relieved by an emerald girdle and a large emerald which adorns the front of my turban. 

In the Comfort Flame you will see all the beings of nature who are free to attend. It is interesting to note that the little elementals from everyone's garden held their own "conferences"... You see, when an individual gets the idea that he or she will create a garden and sets about proving that idea in a practical manner a nature deva is assigned to that garden to assist him in its creation as well as to help the little elementals in creating and sustaining the flowers and the various plants, shrubbery, grass, trees and so forth that make up the garden. 

When the Temple of Comfort is open, these nature doves call to council all the little beings under their supervision - from the smallest and humblest of gardens to the most magnificent formal gardens that go with palaces and large estates. Certain members of these little people are appointed as emissaries to the Temple of Comfort... So they come, as you in consciousness come, and they play in, through and around the Flame - you may see them, the little sylphs, the gnomes, the salamanders and the undines and they do enjoy that tremendous radiation. 

Some are given permission by their Nature Deva to stay during the entire thirty days, but their attendance is usually on a rotating basis - so many, come - then they go back and another group comes in, until by the time the Retreat is closed, its radiation has been carried forth to the Nature kingdom by as many of these little beings as possible. 

Of course, I love the Nature kingdom, having worked with it so long and having done so much research on it at inner levels as well as in the world of form when I lived on the Earth... I have found that the wonderful obedience, the wonderful joy, magnificent desire to express the perfection that is within the seed in the Nature Kingdom has given me great inspiration in dealing with the human kingdom where free-will has made mankind very reluctant (forgive me) for the most part to express their divine potentiality. In the nature kingdom, of course, you have that certain pollution that has been imposed upon it by mankind, but for the most part, the tiniest undine, the smallest salamander or sylph express the most wonderful feeling of willingness to help or render any service that they are called upon to perform by myself or any one of those great Beings who are particularly concerned with that kingdom. 

I AM rather like Kuthumi in my tendency to get involved in a study of the nature kingdom and I can well sympathize with him in his evolution when he used to spend so much time at Morya’s great expense of time and exasperation watching a bird or a flower, because the nature kingdom is to me an unceasing marvelous, manifest expression of what can be done through obedience to the Laws of God and the laws of one's own individuality expressed.  

Now, when we speak to mankind and see the innate Divinity - every one of you potential gods and goddesses we regret that there is not that joyous response.... There is, because of many centuries of discordant living, rather an acceptance of appearances and a reluctance, really, beloved ones, to let go of these appearances in favor of the expression of your Divine Perfection... that, in a nutshell, is the difference between the nature kingdom and the human kingdom. 

We are endeavoring now to reach the great mass of humanity - the millions and millions of embodied lifestreams as well as those who must yet take another embodiment on the earth...We must try to make them comfortable first - then make them willing to listen to the law of life and then make them willing to be a Comforting Presence to Life in turn, so that we can have for the Lord Buddha (the new Lord of the World) ever expanding aura of comfort around this planet instead of the cry of agony, pain and distress that arises from it day and night. 

When I speak with the Silent Watchers of the various countries, beloved ones, and they report to me the condition of the thoughts and feelings - the prayers and the consciousnesses of the peoples under their charge, it rends my heart, because my responsibility to every bit of life on this Earth is to bring to it comfort. 

Therefore, wherever I AM accepted and recognized to be an Intelligence desiring to bring comfort, there I AM at that moment, with all the energy, all the life and all the substance and power which is mine, willing and eager to flow through any such one, regardless of race, creed or color... all I want is a willing heart desiring to be a comfort to life... There is no merit, beloved ones, in giving comfort to someone whom you are particularly enamored of at the moment, because you are getting comfort out of such a service, but when you can give impersonal comfort to all of life, even when there is no temporary affection for the one in distress and whom you happen to be serving - then you are coming to maturity under the Ray which I supervise. 

I have seen people many times who spend a whole lifetime giving comfort to a husband, a wife, a mother, sister or brother or child (which is, of course, a very commendable trait), but if you were to look at the aura of that one, you would see that the dying of that comfort was a satisfaction to the self of the giver more than the desire and motive to convey comfort into the consciousness of the one he or she was serving... You will be much happier, dear hearts, when you lose yourselves from the feeling that you must give all your comfort to one part of life and learn to open your arms and desire to give comfort to all. 

You know, there is a balance. I AM always working on that balance with my beloved Seven Chohans... it is the balance between getting people depleted in body and exchequer, thus getting them in such a condition that they do nothing at all - and that of teaching them the aspects, of the law of life... There is a balance between making people think of these deeper aspects of the law and just giving them knowledge which they do not put to use. 

Hilarion had prepared a very beautiful treatise on the brain which he was very desirous of giving tonight... the Beloved Morya had made his application to the World Teacher to speak to you tonight because of the coming Saint Patrick's Day and his own connection with Ireland... Saint Germain also asked for permission to speak because of certain activities of the Violet Fire which are so necessary at this time, but the Beloved Maitreya, who holds the position of the World Teacher compromised by letting me speak to you myself... so you see, there are a great many people in the higher Octaves eager to come to you - a great many Divine men and women, so loving. so interested in you who are eager to give their radiation and have so many wonderful thing to tell you... so I, beloved ones, was given the assignment to speak to you tonight to make you happy, to keep you comfortable - to make you aware of my love for you and to bring you closer - ever closer - into my own World and into my Aura. 

It has been for ages, beloved ones that the chelas were approached by their Chohans and I, personally, had very little contact with unascended beings, but now we have come to a point where I do have that association through the medium of a bridge. 

Have you ever thought what a wonderful thing a bridge is! I AM bridging the consciousness from the Ascended Master' Realm to yours tonight with my energy... It is something like a drawbridge - my energy is reaching into your minds your energy is reaching back into the substance of my feeling world and this activity creates a current that flows from me into your world and from your world back to me and so it expands to bless and enrich all life... 

As the breathing exercises are about to commence, I must return, although, as I have told you, the Beloved Pallas Athena is representing me tonight in the Flame Room, she stands now within the Flame and I shall take my place before the chalice from which the Flame of Comfort is ascending... we will clasp hands, she from within the Flame and I from my place facing the chalice as this is the signal for the exercises to begin, I shall have to leave you, beloved ones, with the reminder that the Comfort Flame, is real, and I AM as close to each one of you as Life itself.
