Vol. 23 No. 45 - Beloved El Morya - November 9, 1980
The Light of the Guru and the Chela:
Surrender for a More Perfect Love
O light of the far-off worlds! I AM come to deliver to my chelas the Word of wisdom and the Word of love.
I AM in the heart of the Guru. I AM in the heart of the Mother. So often you know not that it is I who address you. And therefore today Mother has said to me, as I was speaking with her concerning certain matters that I would have her draw to your attention, “Will you not, dear Morya, deliver these matters yourself that they might know the directness of your Word?”
And so I have deferred in this hour. And I have come that you might know the certain vibration of my own flame which is one with the heart of the Universal Mother, the blue ray of Kali, and the image of the Mother that repeats itself as a pattern in Matter over and over and over again—faces of the Mother appear etched in sand, in glass, in fire, in blade of grass throughout eternity. There is nowhere that you can look when you are dedicated to the holy will of Father and not find the image of Mother.
Fortunate are you that that image is to you physical and present and apparent—fortunate for the comfort and the joy, fortunate for the immediate registering upon that face of approval or disapproval of what comes forth from your own heart, whether of grace or disgrace to the blessed face of the Woman clothed with the sun. <1>
Therefore you have a sounding board, truly—you may direct currents to the heart of the messenger and the return current will tell you whether or not your own vibration is pure and perfect. The instantaneous return gives to you such an acceleration of chelaship as that which you would not have were you merely the disciples of ascended masters without the intermediary of one who has known us for centuries intimately and in the very present person of our presence in embodiment and in the octaves of light.
Because the messenger spans these octaves, you therefore have in her person the fruit of our sacred labor on earth, which we ourselves have gleaned in past embodiments, and you also have the fruit of our causal body at your disposal. Thus the harvest of two worlds pours forth from the cornucopia of the Mother’s consciousness. Happy are ye when ye dwell therein and learn to love more, to love your own Great God Self that is ever one with the Light—the Light and the current of the very office of the messenger itself. And therefore one with Reality, with your God Self, is also one with the mouthpiece of that Self.
And therefore if you fear to enter into the Reality of your own being or to be near the messenger, you must realize that that fear is a barrel surrounding you. And your own fear has you over a barrel, as you might say. And you know it not! and often you condemn life or God or the whippoorwill or the stone of stumbling in your path—unwilling to see so clearly, my child, that that stone is a stone that you placed there yourself, perhaps a million years ago. And the stone, in utter patience of devotion to the Guru and the chela, has remained unmoved that you might return and pick it up and toss it into the great sea of Life, into the sacred fire for transmutation and to make a new mark of identity, as ever-concentric rings of devotion to holy purpose register upon infinite space and infinite time until one day there is the transcending of both and you merge with that which we shall call Infinity—for it is beyond description.
Beloved hearts, I have come to take a collection. And my angels who serve with me in Darjeeling who have been in council chambers with me this morning are fully prepared and apprised that they now come with baskets in hand, which baskets they shall send up and down the rows of this congregation. You have withheld! And therefore I demand the givingness of all within you or the least portion, if you will have it, of that substance which has resisted the perfect will of God for your life.
I will tell you why you sometimes tarry and dally in reserving for yourself that nebulous state of consciousness which is neither the will of God made perfect nor resistance to that will but a neutral zone where there is no catching you in any act of disobedience—but neither is there any finding you in any act of manifest grace or thrusting for a purpose! Ho!
Thus, you see, in the withholding there is also the self-manipulative techniques of the carnal mind that would have you believe that you are doing nothing wrong. Well, it may be so. But the question is: Are you doing anything right?
Now then, when you have within your midst the messenger whose heart is perfected in the will of God and in devotion to it, when you have the presence of her piercing blue causal body—as piercing as the light of this sari—then, beloved hearts, you tend to feel that the presence of the will of God counts for you also and that therefore, secure in the mantle and the shadow of the messenger, you need not make so great an effort as you would were you on the other side of the earth yet seeking the Light, yet determined to know the Word of God’s will and that Word incarnate.
Thus, beloved hearts, it is true that the attainment of the Guru counts for every chela. And every true chela of the Guru does constantly benefit from the light of the Guru—and so it is within each and every one of you. But this you must understand: that the true definition of chela is one who is perpetually striving to embody the purity of the Christ flame, the Christ identity, and the Guru is one who embodies the supreme I AM Presence.
Therefore if the soul who would be chela ceases from striving, rests on his oars, procrastinates to another day the perfect power of the holy will, at what moment—can you tell me—does the soul cease to be chela and therefore no longer have access to the light of the Guru? It is the moment when there is a measured descent from the vibration of purity of the Christ mind and the Christ heart. The Christed mind and heart always has access to the infinite light of God, the Great Guru, that ever pours forth.
Now, then, the condition of the chela’s consciousness determines that to which the chela shall have access. Let us realize that moment by moment and hour by hour, though your name may be recorded on the rolls of the Great White Brotherhood as chela-in-training, being tutored by our emissaries, yet there is an ebb and a flow. And if you place yourself outside of the great magnet of the polarity of this Guru/chela relationship, you are temporarily out of alignment. Though you may yet be entitled to it, at that particular moment—through absence of the call or absence or departure from the path of initiation—you are not truly focusing, anchoring, holding a chalice of that blessed will of God.
Therefore the purpose of the Guru is ever to remind you when you are out of alignment with the holy will, because the Guru knows that the absence of alignment results in that condition where you are no longer in a state of grace—not to the Almighty God, not to the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, not to the enbodied Guru.
And therefore your life, your very physical vehicles—mental, emotional, and etheric—are endangered. And you know it not because yuo have not the fullness of that balance of karma or the inner sight or the attainment to recognize when, O when you stray in vibration from receptivity, from being that perfect chalice—the unguarded moment, the off-handed word that is not guarded by the standard of the Light. Thus ever is the word standard used as an appellation of Guru. The Word incarnate is the standard-bearer that you might be aware of where yu stand neath the rod and the power of the Almighty.
Thus my angels are ready. They have come because they have read the record of your individual lifestreams and they understand all too well how those in embodiment must deal with the spell of idolatry and the idolatrous cult whereby the Guru no longer is friend or person but has become a god of sorts, unreachable—to be hated, to be loved, to be feared, to be blindly obeyed but not to be assimilated.
Assimilation is the key in this Guru/chela relationship. Will you eat the flesh and drink the blood, literally, of the messenger?—that is the question!
My beloved, you must understand when I say “literally” I am speaking of the very physical currents of Alpha and Omega that course through the physical body. I do not speak of the flesh and blood that appears but of the Light that ensouls it, that infills it—the very life and heart and hope and dream that I hold so dear and place within this tender vessel, the partaking of the joy and the sorrow, the cross and the crown.
Understand that this has naught to do with idolatry. It has naught to do with those who fashion themselves in the likeness of the mechanization man and therefore would become robots no longer needing to think, to make choices, to exercise free will, to fight that intense fight against the alter ego and the beasts that roam the caverns beneath the surface of consciousness, beasts which—just when you think they are vanquished—appear once again, peering just above the surface that you might know that they are still there.
You who are wrestling that Christ might dwell in you bodily know whereof I speak! and you are patient to hear my Word. For you have called for me and I have come and I have come for the most necessary transmission of this understanding. It is a simple statement: You will not ride on the coattails or upon the train of the sari of the Mother into heaven.
Therefore do not mistake the attainment of the Guru for your own but see it as example and accelerate! For this is a moving star that continues to expand and move on. And you cannot rest in a comfortable niche, for there are no comfortable niches for those who are the eagles—the eagle Mother, as Sanat Kumara—those who are the sons and daughters of God who embody the very body of Christ.
Understand, beloved hearts, that this soaring does not find you secure anywhere except in the point of light that is your devotion to the will of God. There is no resting in any vibration but always the necessity of new light and new attainment else you will lose sight of the Mother and the messenger. And how can you keep in sight the ascended masters if you can no longer be with their embodied messenger?
Thus in the comfortability of the aura of the Great White Brotherhood you have slackened your pace, you have withheld your giving, you have not reached down deep into your pockets to pull out the last coin—and in this case the coin is the last withholding of your will to do God’s will!
Thus my angels begin. And now you will place a specific statement in your heart of that which you know to be resistance unto the perfect inner blueprint. Place this now in the baskets which they pass before you and see vividly that these angels come in the piercing light of the blue flame.
How wondrous is its manifestation! How comforting to be in the presence of that which seals you in the inner design! And for this hour that we share, here as you tarry with me as I AM with you, you know what it means to have already totally surrendered and to be in the embrace of God’s will.
I expand this messenger’s aura that you might feel this light of purity and this light of the balanced karma that has long been due and has come forth for the victory of all. Understand then what it means to live in the forcefield of obedience to God’s will, being light in the freedom (having balanced one’s own karma) to now feel the great burden, the planetary burden of sin, and yet to carry it with that new lightness of freedom!—freedom from the vestiges of personal karma.
Now understand what is this devotion to God’s will—what is this devotion and what it can mean for your life, into the very depths of your being.
Because you are chela and would yet call yourself chela, I allow the blue-flame will to penetrate. Held in the embrace of the Electronic Presence of Lanello and Mother and my own forcefield, the coordinates of our three dots embrace you and you are healed even as you are sealed in your own mighty I AM Presence!
You feel now what liberation, what casting aside of stones of stumbling in your life, what freedom to be and move and live as you really are—when you surrender all resistance to the holy will, all imperfect desire to be someone or something that you are not, all lurking desire to control the Godhead in any form, great or small.
See! I give you a vision of the future when you shall have overcome, when you shall have surrendered and, but that surrender, you have become God-victorious. It is going to a future which lies as the inner blueprint but which has not yet come to pass. It is going then to the past behind that future which is actually the present moment.
Now therefore you have the opportunity to change the course of your own life history before it become history. Do you understand!
Going forward into eternity, you look back upon yourself as you now are. You see the stretch of life before you. You see the options for victory. You see what pure striving really is! You see what the stretching of the wings can really be. You see the attainment that must be attained. And you realize that all of your strength and heart and love and mind and will must go into this final spurt to the finish line where you come in, not second or third but first—each and every one of you, first as champions of Life.
Beloved hearts, I will not show you the alternative, trusting that you know it well. Infamy and ignominy are not twins that we would place before your gaze, neither is a choice unto the chela of God’s will. Inasmuch as you have already made your choice, I come only to instill you with a more perfect love and a more perfect vision of your own progress on the Path.
My angels gather and are gathering now your offering. Let it be an acceptable offering, an holy offering unto the Lord of that which has for far too long been hidden in the folds of your garments.
You there, O soul of light! Why do you resist me? Why do you doubt? Why do you fear? I have stood where you stand. I have examined your lifestream. I know what you are in unreality and in Reality. I can only champion that which is Real. Do not look to me or to the messenger or to any other friends on the Path for a comliment of your human unreality—good or bad, kind or unkind.
Beloved heart, you know not the meaning of your own Reality. And this is the cause of all your distress and your distressing of heaven itself with the repetition of failure and the failure syndrome.
Let us not be as kindergarten children, dancing in a circle and singing nursery rhymes. I hope we are beyond that stage. I hope we realize that this is no longer the acceptable offering of the mature son of God before the Divine Mother.
Realize then that that which is acceptable to the child may no longer be acceptable to the man or the Manchild. Therefore you cannot run down the ladder and say, “I will take my tests with the third-graders this day. And I will pass. And I will be at peace.” Instead run up the ladder and see how it feels—more light, more attainment, and a grander and nobler purpose of bearing the sins of the whole world that they might continue to strive.
Beloved hearts, these offerings are labeled by your own blueprint, your own electronic vibration. Each one will be carefully read. Each one will be brought to the sacred fire and to my heart in Darjeeling. Thus I trust we can move forward and make of each one a pillar of sacred fire, a greater point of emanation for the love of God’s will, which truly is always the intensification of sacred fire in the heart until the crystallized human substance is finally dissolved and that which is the pure love of God ascends to his holy hill, even to the holy mountain of the causal body.
Each point of perfecting perfect love for God’s will means that a nucleus of your own consciousness does ascend and become the magnet in your causal body by which one day you will be drawn into the ascsension. And you will mount that ladder of Life as surely as if you yourself had descended into the very bowels of the earth—for so it seems when you face the dweller on the threshold and the final hours of your karma. And that magnet will be unto you the lodestone. It will be as though you held on to a rope that you had thrown into the very heart of the rock and there securely fastened. And by that rock and by that rope you climb to the summit of Being.
Beloved hearts, think then of this Great Central Sun Magnet formed of molecules of perfect love for God’s will. Think of the rope that is secure by your devotion. Think of the rope that is made secure and fastened by the Guru itself, by the Word incarnate, by the very presence of the office. Think of the details that are necessary in the very hour of your victory. Truly the ladder that you climb is the ladder that you yourself have forged and won.
Let it be then that our chelas here and around the world and the many who call to me out of Africa—let it be said that they do not allow themselves to be deceived into believing that the Holy Spirit is come unto them and infills them when indeed there yet remains the necessary exorcism of parts of life and consciousness that are not of the Holy Ghost.
The Holy Ghost may inundate you with light. You may feel vibration around you from our dictations and our decrees, even as you give your decrees in the great interchange of the spoken Word. Feeling that presence and that power is the first step on this Path, this royal road of integration and assimilation of the Guru. To have the Holy Spirit throughly within being is to have the assimilation of the Word.
When the Holy Spirit is upon the surface, it often uncovers and brings to the surface demons of possession. And therefore one can perceive the Holy Spirit surrounding well-meaning pastors, even though they yet have within them the possession of discarnate entities. Understand the juxtaposition of these two forces and realize that when the Holy Spirit as a cloud surrounds an individual, often those who witness must have that Christ-discrimination to realize that God is always pure, that his purity flushes out the darkness, and that therefore the Holy Spirit upon individuals is a most individual manifestation. It is evolutionary until that assimilation of which I speak is fulfilled.
Thus souls evolve even as they assimilate the Holy Ghost. And as the Holy Spirit first begins to move upon the waters of the desire body and upon the mind, the individual begins to give foryth a new vibration. Little by little, that Holy Ghost can be seen and heard.
But the fullness of the Spirit of the Great White Brotherhood is another manifestation entirely. It is truly the assimilation of the body and blood of Christ until there is only Christ and no other where you stand. For in the assimilation of the Word is the parallel process of the dissolution of the anti-Word—the human ego and its human momentums.
Assimilation means dissolution. If you have argument with dissolution, if you do not contain the pure desire for that sugar cube of the lesser self to be dissolved, then you see you will also be at odds with assimilation and with the Holy Spirit. And therefore you will be among all men most miserable, among all women most disconcerting to your mentors and to the hierarchy of light.
We cannot be tied to the yo-yo of the chela’s consciousness who wants light, wants the assimilation of healing, comfort, joy, wisdom, and all sorts of talents and powers and yet who does not desire—with the fervent desire of the very soul itself—self-dissolution.
It is the principle of the extinguishing of the candle of the lesser self. It is the intense desire to be God and the corresponding desire not to be. Therefore the riddle “to be or not to be” becomes most clear: to be God and not to be the human self.
Thus the decision must be made in both directions. But, you see, some men have switched them and, instead of desirieng to be God, they have desired to be the human ego. Instead of desiring not to be the human ego, they have desired not to be God. The relics of these individuals still stalk the canyons of the cities of the earth as the living dead. For in the reversal of roles, you see, they have come entirely to naught. They have become the living dead. And they themselves are hollow in the hollow cities of the Cain civilizations of the earth.
Now, my beloved ones, I draw your attention to the continent of Africa. For of all of the problems that are brewing in the world—in the Middle East and in North and South America—you must realize that beneath the surface of life and already coming through on the surface, there is brewing, there is brewing a momentum of discontent based on economic corruption and the corresponding collapse of economic systems.
These levels of discontent brewing are calculated to become the cause of strife throughout the continent—continental strife throughout Africa. Therefore I send my light to the true chelas in the nations of Africa. And I warn those who are fooling themselves into thinking that they are chelas that unless you accept the Word of the ascended masters as it is given and understand that your life must come into alignment and consonance with it, unless there is a true acceptance of our teachings through the messenger, you will be found wanting and without your chelaship.
All those who have heard the Word of the messenger in Africa—had they heeded it, had they become it, had they pursued it, had they not resisted it, could have easily forestalled the great debacle and judgment that is come upon the nations of Ghana and Liberia.
Beloved hearts, nation by nation there is also upon that continent the rejection of the teachings of the ascended masters as the way out of the dilemma. They have preferred their intellectual prophets of socialism or of the International Monetary Fund or of the United Nations or of this or that government out of East and West. They have preferred this to the Word of prophecy, the certain Word of the Lord, and the Light that is truly the key out of the present dilemma.
Multiply this rejection nation by nation—as one can easily project on the graph of human karma into the future—and you will see that the decline of life, the breakdown of the economy, of business, of trade can only result in greater and greater discontent nation by nation until massive uprisings, starvation, and finally corresponding plague seize a continent in upheaval of war, rumors of war, the slaying of brother by brother, and every form of strife.
Let us see to it, then, that the world momentums of hate and human hate creation directed against Saint Germain and the ascended masters are not outplayed upon that continent. Therefore I send forth the sons and daughters of Afra stumping for the Coming Revolution in Higher Consciousness in North America to raise here sons of light, sons of Afra who will become strong in the Lord—who are truly the embodied angels come to be shepherds unto the people. By the unity and the enlightenment of the black peoples of America, the arc of that wisdom and that love can be transferred to the continent of Africa.
So it must be. For all who have descended from that continent and come to these shores, one way or another—these are the souls who are destined to be the deliverers. Therefore to deliver in this nation and then to go back to that continent becomes your calling.
There is much to be done here to secure the base of love. For this America is that anchor point in the lodestone, in the Great Central Sun Magnet itself, whereby the souls of light may descend the ladder into the darkest levels of the astral plane and be secure and know that they may likewise ascend that ladder back to the very mount.
Therefore seeds of attainment, nuclei of lightbearers, groups of sons and daughters of Afra gathering across this nation for the defense of the cities, for the defense of this people in education, in employment, in day-to-day life itself—these focuses of light must be established that they might hold the balance for the shepherds to go into the nations of Africa. And this cannot wait, beloved hearts, too many years. It must come quickly to stay the determination of the fallen ones, even the Nephilim councils of war from carrying out their plots of destruction—population control of the children of the light and of mankind.
We dip into the future. Our hand into the water of Life draws forth a single drop. And the single drop, a crystal, gives a view of what shall surely come to pass in the victory of the individual chela if you understand my Word this day. And then again, a single drop shows clearly what can happen in the future if the sons and daughters of Afra do not perceive the handwriting on the wall.
There is immense hatred being projected in and through this people by the fallen ones, determined in the name of religion to divide them from the children of the light and their angels from fellow bands of angels that are embodied among the white peoples and those of other races. This division must stop. It is calculated and contrived by the devils incarnate.
Let us then look to the future. Let us look to the future of planet Earth. Let us know, as I have told you through our messenger, that the future is indeed to those who elect to become the Word incarnate.
With the fervor of the will of God I address you. With the tenderness of my heart I enfold you. We now withdraw the fiery cloud of our presence into the nucleus of our heart that you might have the commeasurement once again of your own thoughts and feelings, your own deliberations and determinations to be or not to be this day caught up in wings of light, mounting that holy will unto the stars.
By contrast you can easily perceive what are the momentums that, if sustained in this hour, will prevent you from your victory in the future. How light it is to be without them! And now that they are upon you again, remember that you need not become Hercules to overcome these momentums. You need only whisper to me in the still small voice of your heart:
|
Morya, I desire— |
When you come to the hour when this prayer is given without the dividing in your members, without a pulling in this direction and that, when you are truly sincere and determined and willing to pay the price—whatever it may be—for that point of surrender, you will find that in the twinkling of my own eye that substance can come under submission to your God Self and never raise its head again. And as the days and months proceed, you will, section by section, dissolve that beast.
You can visualize your Christ Self in the person of the roaring lion, the king of the beasts. And this mighty lion, seated in perfect poise, holds a single right paw over that beast. The beast cannot move. The lion then holds down the beast until you—as chela, as soul—assimilate it into the Great God Flame.
This is the very feast of Almighty God. It is the great supper whereby all of the beasts of human creation are devoured in the flame and are no more. Thus the roaring lion of the Great Guru himself and the Ever-Present Guru is ever-present now, holding that right paw on the beast of the nonentity.
Go about your business, chelas of God’s will. Put on the mantle of a new heart and mind. It is not necessary to be human any longer. You are not the ‘hewn’ man. You are made in the image and likeness of God. <2>
Cease your strutting about to be good humans doing good works, always busying yourself to reinforce your self-image as a good human being. Cease all of this. Become zero that God may become the one-hundred percent of Being where you are.
And if you do not understand my Word, little one, then ask your teachers to explain it. For I AM determined that from the least unto the greatest and the newest to the oldest chelas, my message shall be understood. You may begin, therefore, by assimilation of my Word in preparation for the assimilation of my Person.
This is why the Word incarnates. This is why the Word gives forth the message—because the Almighty understands that you are not ready to be assimilated by the Word or to assimilate it. But you are ready for the morsel. You are ready for the holy bread. You are ready for our communion.
You can assimilate that which we speak in any given day. And our holy bread given on each Sabbath is for the seven days which follow. For the nourishment, yes. But much more importantly for the assimilation—not merely to enjoy the meat that I bring that fills the belly and warms the innards. Nay! it is for the becoming of that Word itself and ultimately to become the cause behind the effect that you hear as the spoken Word.
Let us rejoice that the Lord hath made this day, this acceptable day for his appearance unto you in a more intense form of the sacred blue will—the blue will of my sword, my ray, and my heart. See how it is tinged with such an intense and piercing pink fire as to become the ruby ray itself.
I AM always in the white fire core of the Mother’s heart. Come and find me there.
