Gracious ladies and gentlemen, may the all-enfolding love of the Christ descend upon your hearts.
You have heard it said, “All is well that ends well.”1 And I think that most of you are aware of the fact that all has not ended well for many people. And I think also that for many of you, you are still waiting for that perfect end, to the day of life’s perfection and your own blessed ascension in the glory which has descended from the heart of God from the very Beginning. Ladies and gentlemen, the heart of the world waits for a manifestation of a perfect day.
Mankind today, witnessing as they do the great epoch of unfolding scientific knowledge, are able to recognize upon the screen of life a vast and mighty intelligence. The intelligence of God, as it manifests through the prism of human consciousness, has performed multitudinous wonders. But the greatest of wonders that has ever been performed before mankind is the science of divine initiation whereby man is able to set himself free and obtain for all time the power and invincibility of the flames of freedom.
As I stand before you tonight, I choose to recognize you as my peers. It may seem strange for me to utter this statement. But I would like to do so, for I would like to behold all men as perfected divine beings, outpicturing even greater glory than that which I am manifesting this night.
When you, beloved ones, obtain from the Godhead a state of consciousness whereby as you gaze upon a lifestream you are able to recognize and behold in that lifestream an immaculate concept; when you are able to desire for others a manifestation of perfection and rejoice with each tiny appearance of perfection in another—then you yourself are beginning to manifest a greater outpicturing of your own freedom.
Freedom comes to men because they allow freedom to come to others. Freedom itself is a flame. And the flame of freedom sweeps the prairie like a wildfire, causing mankind to feel a great yearning pulsating within their beings to obtain freedom from human density.
The oppressions of human consciousness are witnessed by mankind daily. And they behold, manifesting upon the pages of their daily newspapers, a drama which is not to the liking of heaven and is not to the liking of mankind! For men today, regardless of the fact that they are a part of the mass consciousness, are ever so desirous to obtain for themselves a spirit of freedom which redeems them from the mass consciousness and exalts them into the realms of immortality! Immortality may be your birthright. But until you are forthrightly manifesting it by your dominion over your own world, you have not yet manifested your own freedom and you are yet in your chains.
I AM come this night to remind you of the invincible power of your own mighty I AM God Presence to obtain for you, now and for all eternity, that perfection which came forth in the Beginning and from whence you came forth as an individualized ego.
O beloved hearts, as I speak to you now, I want to tell you that I have determined within myself, with a fierce determination, to summon by the power of light’s perfection the angelic host ere I shall finish and conclude my speaking this evening. And I have also determined to obtain for all of you an outpicturing and manifest blessing of the angelic host which shall flood your consciousness with that joy to the world that is our desire to share with all mankind.
Beloved ones, the screen of history has brought forth great infamy, and mankind themselves often lament that which they perceive in action. And yet this lamentation has never, in thousands of years, produced a very great change upon the world scene, whereas joy and a spirit of rejoicing does obtain for mankind an entrée into some degree of light’s perfection.
I would like to call your attention, then, to that spirit of joy which is connected with the Godhead and is divine balance in action. Beloved ones, divine balance in action is most important to all of the students. For today there is exhibited upon the streets of life all types and manner of imbalance. Therefore, when mankind recognize the meaning behind the words of the Christ, “Enter thou into the joy of thy Lord,”2 they will recognize the joy of their own mighty I AM God Presence as it holds the delicate balance of their life within the scales of being and manifests perfection within them, which must come forth without if they will call it forth.
Beloved ones, the power of your own attention is the [dial] which you must turn in order to release yourselves from the power of human domination. You must recognize that when your attention is turned to your Great God Self and you recognize it as the supreme power that is acting within your world, you release into your world the full feeling and intensity of your own Divine Self. And when that Divine Self comes into action in you, it quite naturally translates the human and removes the cobwebs of human density from the realm of human creation and from the brain cells of mankind, causing a tremendous action of the power of light to flash across the consciousness of man in much the same manner as the aurora borealis flashes across the sky.
And then there comes into man’s consciousness the crystal-clear power of being. And he is able to perceive himself not as a mortal encased within a coil of discord but as an immortal son of God blazing forth the flame of cosmic victory and obtaining for himself his own ascension in the light, as has been demonstrated by countless avatars throughout the pages of past history!
Ladies and gentlemen, the power of light’s perfection tonight is the same power of light’s perfection that manifested when beloved Elijah ascended in the fiery chariot.3 It is the same power of light that manifested upon the occasion of beloved Zarathustra’s ascension into the light.4 It is the same power of light’s perfection that manifested in the ascension of beloved Jesus from Bethany’s hill.5 And it is the same power of ascension light that will manifest in each one of your beating hearts and obtain for you that which God intends all to have.
The idea, beloved ones, of a favorite son has too long occupied the minds of men so that they themselves have thought upon the idea of one or more individuals acting for them to procure their salvation, whereas it is the intent of the Divinity to bestow upon them immortality by the hand of their own Holy Christ Self, which all have! And this is “the Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.”6
O beloved ones, in the holy name of freedom, then, recognize that gift which you have already received and which is in your own realm of dimension. Simply because you have not thought upon this in the past, simply because you have not recognized this in the past does not mean today that at this moment, precisely, you cannot speak to me and say:
Beloved Saint Germain, it is my desire to obtain for myself the light of God that never fails and my own victorious ascension in the light. I ask, therefore, that you start the action of the ascension flame within the forcefield of my being.
And I will respond to you! For I tell you, beloved ones, we are not conditioned by human consciousness or by human ideas of the laws of God. We are conditioned by the precise action of the law of God in action, which itself is the light that does not fail. And this light, beloved ones, is only activated by the attention of the individual to his own Divine Presence and requires no other lever than the lever of the attention.
It is so simple, beloved ones, and so sweet. And yet it seems so far from mankind, who are accustomed to some procedure of salvation whereby they themselves may go through a long series of ceremonies and initiations that eventually will produce for them the perfection they desire. I do not deny but affirm that initiations will come to mankind. But, beloved ones, the process can be commenced by your invocation to the light and does not require some doctrinal tenet to manifest within your world. It is simply a matter of your own opening of the door.
Beloved ones, the great ascended host and the entire Spirit of the Great White Brotherhood have long desired to see the people of America and the world blessed with an unusual outpicturing of cosmic freedom. Do you think, beloved ones, that it is our desire to have an exclusive club to which only a few individuals may belong and [through which only a few individuals may] obtain the blessings and benefits of this club? I tell you, nay. For it is our desire to see all of you cut free from every type of human domination and every type of power which causes you to be oppressed. And it is our desire to see you obtain for yourself such victory as has never before manifested upon this planet.
As men read some of the teachings of the past pertaining to Lemuria and Atlantis and past ages, which are recorded in books today, they are often prone to speculate that these are merely the vain imaginings of someone’s mind. I tell you, beloved ones, the power of light that beats your heart is not a vain imagining! It is the power of freedom! And it is the power of freedom when it is called into action, but it is not the power of freedom when it is wrongly qualified, as mankind have continued to do. When men, therefore, will love freedom enough to seek it with all their hearts, they will obtain it, as many have and as you can this eve.

This dictation by Saint Germain was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood Mark L. Prophet on Saturday, September 7, 1963, during Saint Germain’s Class of the Angels, held in Los Angeles, California. [N.B. Bracketed words have been added for clarity in the written word.]
1. All’s Well That Ends Well is a comedy in five acts attributed to William Shakespeare, written in 1601-05 and published in the First Folio of 1623.
2. Matt. 25:21, 23.
3. Elijah ascended in the fiery chariot. See II Kings 2.
4. Zarathustra’s ascension. Zarathustra was the founder of Zoroastrianism in ancient Persia. Some accounts indicate that Zarathustra, at the age of seventy-seven, perished by lightning or a flame from heaven.
5. Jesus’ ascension from Bethany’s hill. See Mark 16:19, 20; Luke 24:50-53; Acts 1:9-11. Traditionally Jesus’ ascension from Bethany’s hill is understood as his entering into heaven. The ascended masters have revealed in later years that when Jesus rose from Bethany’s hill, he was concluding his Palestinian mission and that he took his ascension, his reunion with the living Presence of God, many years later. After his crucifixion and resurrection, Jesus journeyed to Kashmir, and at the age of eighty-one he ascended from the etheric retreat of Shamballa.

SAINT GERMAIN. Royal Teton Retreat (2). In the center of the room where the gold is kept is a focus for the precipitation of sunlight. In another room, the threefold flame is focused. There is also a violet-flame chamber as well as departments of science and rehabilitation and council halls where there is continual planning and development of projects to be carried out by souls in embodiment. In many classrooms those who attend this retreat in their finer bodies during sleep are received. Other areas are provided for those who, after passing from physical embodiment, must remain in a state of sleep until it is time for them to be awakened to make preparation for their next embodiment. A music room with beautiful instruments which have been perfected by the ascended masters sends forth to the world the music of the spheres. The perfected patterns of some of these instruments have been released as ideas into the minds of some musicians in the world and more will be released in the golden age. Also many new inventions, scientific formulas, techniques in art and in every field of human endeavor–already developed by the ascended masters–will be released to humanity from this retreat when they have demonstrated their predisposition to use them honorably and morally according to the Golden Rule and without compromise of the end-justifies-the-means Luciferian philosophy that serves the carnal nature of human attachment, possessiveness, or greed. In the etheric realm over this retreat a large amphitheatre has been built to accommodate those lifestreams who, by recent dispensation, have been permitted to come to the retreat in their finer bodies for instruction. Each New Year’s Eve, the thought form for the year is released from the Silent Watcher of this solar system to the Lord of the World Gautama Buddha, who in turn releases it to earth’s unascended evolutions in a dictation through the messengers given in the power of the spoken Word from the Royal Teton Retreat. The thought form contains the keys to the outpicturing of the will of God for the planet for the coming twelvemonth cycle. The music of this retreat is “Evening Star” from Tannhauser.
