We desire to send you forth two by two into the world to claim a remnant for the Lords of Karma, for the Christ, and for the age. We desire to sponsor you. Therefore consider well how you may attend the university, how you may reserve this twelve-week cycle for the final training, the purging of your soul by the cosmic secret rays from the heart of Cosmos, the preparing of your being and consciousness for the going-forth to the multitudes, standing for Truth, being interviewed on radio and television.

When you are ready, we will arrange the interviews; we will arrange for the multitudes. For we have tempered the wind of mankind’s carnal-mindedness to the shorn lamb of the identity of the children of God. We have not pressed upon you the multitudes who will come crying for healing when they realize the great healing focus of the Maha Chohan, of the emerald ray that is anchored in this focus and in the Retreat of the Resurrection Spiral. Throngs, numberless throngs, will press about you when they realize that the Holy Spirit is within you.

Therefore I say, we are ready when you are ready. But we cannot release to you the multitudes if you cannot stand up before them, if you cannot stand up against the substance of their four lower bodies. For at the hour and the moment when mankind are prepared to receive the Holy Ghost and the righteousness of the saints, the mantle of the saints, it is then that the dweller on the threshold–the accumulation of their entire momentum of karma, which is called the carnal mind–arrays itself against the Christ. And thus to be a true teacher of the Light, you must be able to stand before the disciple, to challenge and bind the dweller on the threshold while speaking the gentle Word of Truth, the admonishment of the soul which will woo the heart, the mind, and the soul into the knowledge of the Law.

This is the responsibility of the World Teachers. This was the momentum of the Lord Jesus as he walked among the multitudes who thronged him and desired to kill him; and he disappeared from their midst <1> by the power of the divine Alchemy. For you see it was the carnal mind within them that would have killed him, while the soul and the Christ within hungered after his Truth–the Truth that the soul understands will make it free. <2>

We have stood by and seen how these Messengers have had to deal with the disciplining of the outer consciousness, with the training of souls in the mastery and the dominion of these momentums, and how often the rebellion of the outer mind and its free will has caused some souls to retreat from before the Flame. And we have watched how the soul has been in agony as the outer consciousness withdrew from service or was disobedient. For the soul of these ones was intimately aware of the rebuttal and the disobedience of the outer consciousness and of the great period of time that would be required for the humbling of the outer self to return once again to the place of the Ascended Masters’ teachings.

Thus inner conflict is ever and always the dichotomy of the momentum of past ages of sin and oppression that works and strives against the momentum of the Christ that is in the Causal Body of man. Thus Joshua said, “Choose you this day whom ye will serve.” <3>  Will you serve the Christ within or the carnal mind?
