Feast of the Resurrection Flame
V
The Arcing of the Flame of Shamballa to the Inner Retreat
The Four Buddhas Take Up Their Abode in the
Reflecting Pool of the Mother
Most gracious ones, I AM called by the Ancient of Days to impart unto you the very Word of my heart.
Children of the Light, children of the Sun are searching for the Exalted One. Let he who exalts the Buddha within the secret chamber of the heart know that he is a rock and that I AM that Buddha that I AM.
The exaltation of the Buddhic light is for the adoration of the Mother flame in this hour of our celebration of the crucifixion in Life that death might be vanquished through the spiraling intensity of the immensity of all of the Buddha’s very own love for the Universal One.
We bow before the Ancient of Days whose Light shineth out of the East. And unto the West we come. Now, in the turning of this diode, I AM pronouncing the Word whereby the Buddha of the North and the Buddha of the South, the Buddha of the West and the Buddha of the East would take up their abode in the reflecting pool of the Mother.
You have created a crystal pool—clear for its harmony, powerful for its peace, strengthened in union by the elimination of the anti-union vibration. <1> I AM come, therefore.
I peer into the pool of the Mother.
I behold that resplendent, transcendent face.
Lo, I AM the reflection within my soul of Cosmic Virgin.
My adoration of her manifests, then, as her own image, as my own image, within the pool. Thus, by the light of devotion of the Lord of the World, the Saviouress is come unto the West—long prophesied—out of the West Wind. And in the very heart of her children’s longing—the heart of her children’s longing, I say—does she come forth in this hour. And leading the children who greet the Mother is Maitreya, bearer of the banner of the World Mother.
From Shamballa I arc a light. I would establish the ground of the Ancient of Days.
Sanat Kumara comes in the flame of Mother, for he is the God of the South. Therefore let him appear, even as I appear as the God of the West. The living Christ, eternal Christus is come, the God of the East. And unto Maitreya the mountain is given—for he sits as the one, as the Buddha whose time is come. For the one is present and the others take their positions that he might be in the fore-front of life. Thus I have commanded, “Give forth the teachingof Maitreya, God of the North, emissary of the emissary of Brahma.” <2>
Now therefore, my beloved, in this hour I contemplate—note it well—the arcing of the flame of Shamballa to the Inner Retreat as the Western abode of the Buddhas and the Bodhisattvas and the Bodhisattvas-to-Be who are the devotees of the Mother light.
Let the Inner Retreat be complete! For we have a longing, the intense longing of our heart, which is our crucifixion contemplation. It is to be now and for eternity united with the Mother, we three and Sanat Kumara. Thus in this retreat of resurrection’s flame, here where you have gathered, we have shown the figure of the three crosses and Holy Virgin, <3> outcropping of the light of Brahman and the Word, outcropping of the light of Sanat Kumara, O Sanat Kumara, my Lord.
Our longing is to be one in the Inner Retreat. Our longing is to lower into physical dimensions all that is prepared; for in the physical octave the Light shineth, the Light is come. In the physical octave we would celebrate the Light of the Central Sun. Only thus shall the transformation of worlds occur. Only thus shall the cycles end—and the cycles begin!
We look for the ending and then the beginning. Understand my word: the ending must come ere the beginning begin.
Let each one, devotee, devotee of the Arahant, now, my beloved, look within to the Author, to the Finisher <4>—look for the finishing of the Word, look for the finishing of unreality, look for the finishing of all that has gone outside of the Exalted One! Even I, the Lord Buddha, would take up my abode with you but must tarry till the Finisher establish the finishing of his work. Then let us look to new beginnings. Then let us look to the unfolding of the tightly coiled lily of the heart.
Bring forth the mighty calla lily that has come forth in my honor! Bring it forth to me now at this altar of peace. For I would bow before elemental life. I would bow before the Son of Light and all who bow before the Lord of the World.
I come to celebrate the gold-and-white calla lily within you. I come to establish the Inner Retreat. I come for the rotation and the inversion of the world—that East might become West, North become South, and the Golden Crystal Age appear!
I come, then, for the arcing of the light of Shamballa unto the Inner Retreat. Make haste to seal it, beloved hearts, that the Three-and-Thirty might assemble there and that the work of the golden Buddhas of the sun might be complete. Make haste, then. For I have established the etheric matrix.
Let the physical dimensions rise. Let the resurrection of the inner matrix be. Let all who are of the Light, and only those who are of my Light and heart, be summoned!
Go be where I AM! For the Inner Retreat is in the heart of the Mother. But, you see, in your present condition you cannot all assemble there. Therefore come to her feet, to the feet of the mountain, to God Tabor, to Light, Light, Light, to Himalaya, to Vaivasvata, Meru, the God and Goddess of Wisdom. Come to the feet of the Great Divine Director. Hallow the place of the merging of heaven and earth by sign, by symbol, and by the fixing thereof in physical Matter. Come to the place where the Buddha and the Mother are one.
Angels bearing the gold-and-white calla lily, come forth. Come forth, Light-bearers, torchbearers. Upon the altar of Life I would place the soul as a lily—a lily that is glad to give forth the fullness of her inner matrix, her beauty, and her perfume and, in the fullness of her life, to be laid upon the altar of the Lord of the World that another and another might live to offer the Mother flame, to offer the self and the self in Christ for the healing unto wholeness of the whole world. This is the meaning of the holder of the office of Lord of the World.
Precious hearts, one day you shall be the lord of that world unto which you have sacrificed the calla lily of self. Laying down one’s life on behalf of an entire evolution, you take it again <5> and find yourself as crystal image of the Eternal One engraven upon every part and particle of that evolutionary spiral.
Thus behold elemental and gold-and-white lily—and see. Take for your example these lilies of the field that toil not, neither spin. <6> They are content to live their life upon the altar of Christ! They are content to assimilate the resurrection flame! And then, laying down the life of the outer form, they enter the spiral of latency and follow it all the way on the Path unto the eye of nirvana where they live forever and forever in the heart of universes unborn.
O sweetness, O blessedness, O Life and Light eternal! I AM in the heart of the blessed babe to come—that was, that shall be, that is forevermore in the heart of Blessed Virgin.
