Balance Your Karma:
Take the High Road
Vairochana Becomes the Eighth
Member of the Karmic Board
Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho!
I AM Vairochana.
I AM Vairochana.
I come in gladness.
I come in the heart of the Buddha of each one.
I come and I manifest myself to all beings in all octaves.
Gracious ones on the Buddhic path, gracious ones externalizing the Christic light, know, then, the gentleness of God within you and be at peace. Know that the Five Dhyani Buddhas come for a profound resolution. It is for your resolution within yourselves. It is for the resolution of world conditions.
Therefore to that end we raise up chalices—chalices that might bear the essence, one single drop of oil, from each of the five. We come for a neutralization of sharpness, of bluntness, of all states of consciousness that exclude the love of the brethren, of the servants of God, of the disciples of all the Dhyani Buddhas.
You have invoked us. From far heights you have drawn us, even to the levels of the Buddhas who have embodied. We have come and we work change from the innermost being of the individual outward—change such that you would not even notice except you were to look at a series of photographs over the years, photographs of the profile of the soul.
Thus from within there is a rumbling in each one this night as I take one drop of oil and place it at the very core of being. Thus I am troubling the waters as I pour oil upon the waters, for I trouble you that you might come to deep inner resolution.
For do you know, beloved ones, that many spheres within spheres make up the inner secret rays of your own being? Few have contact with this level, as we have said. But when you do have that contact, when you dare to go deep within, the resolution you achieve is a Buddhic resolution, a God-resolution.
For all actions recorded on the periphery of your Causal Body (the Dharmakaya) and all actions recorded on the body of karmic causes that is wrapped around you here below (the Nirmanakaya) are also recorded on the outer spheres of consciousness. And when you achieve divine resolution, these outer spheres come into conformity with the inner mandala of the Buddhas.
Thus it is in order that we should begin with the within and the seed within and that we should allow the seed to open and to grow and to affect every part of being. This is a ritual that is accomplished, beloved ones, slowly, gently. There is no hurry, for it takes place in timelessness and spacelessness.
Thus, above all, it is incumbent upon the bodhisattva to do well and it is necessary that what he does well he should do with completeness, having as a goal the rendering whole of some portion of self rather than the transformation of the entire self all at once. All of you are being transformed through your Dharmakaya even as you are transforming yourselves through discipleship measure by measure.
We come, then, for the regrouping of your forces and to draw you into alignment with first principles and your point of origin that you might discover and fulfill the reason for your being, why you are here. Our Messenger in your midst comes to assist you to stay on course and to get back on course when you stray too far to the right or to the left.
Thus know that until you have balance, even in the threefold flame, your perception may not be balanced. The five secret rays are a tremendous aid in your achieving balance at all levels. These will pierce impure substances, cut the Gordian knots, <1> repolarize the behavioral patterns and replace misconceptions with right conceptions.
In calling to the Five Dhyani Buddhas as we have taught you to do, beloved (and we have asked you to make that call to us with the preamble to “Mighty Cosmos’ Secret Rays” decree), <2> you will discover an amazing alchemy, one that is almost indescribable! As the outer becomes more self-effacing, the inner becomes more powerful.
I speak of your being and of your soul. When all the fire of your being infolds itself into that supreme white fire core of self, then you know the strength, the vajra, <3> of the Buddhas. Then you need not continually push forth that strength or demonstrate it to others. For then you are pure being.
If you think you cannot attain this, I tell you, you never will if you do not begin. And if you begin and if you work day by day with the equilateral triangle of self, you will find a deep inner empowerment that has naught to do with outer politics or rising above your fellows, ruling nations and seeing yourselves as important people.
As you understand the principle of the Tao, which is the fount of all Buddhism, you will come to realize that there is a trinity of movement within. And you will see that the greater the internalization of that Buddhic energy, the less fanfare you need to have concerning your outer person.
Thus, let the gentle ones go forth. Let them go forth, for these we would sponsor. Let the balanced ones seek balance in the five secret rays and in the Trinity of the heart and in the Divine Mother. The power of the three-times-three is available unto all—available unto all.
I come, then, with a certain substance of Light that is for the binding-up of the brokenhearted, that is for the ministering unto the poor, that is for the binding together of all true souls of Light who would create out of this Community the geometry of a giant honeycomb, each little hexagon filled with the elixir of the golden oil of the honeybee.
Think of this great honeycomb! Think of the oneness, every side attached to another side. Think of how powerful is the Great White Brotherhood and the antahkarana <*> thereof that spans the cosmos. This you are intended to be in a community of brotherly, sisterly love.
But some have not understood how. Some have been carrying very heavy burdens of karma that they consider too hard to bear. And therefore they have taken side streets, the way that seemed right <4> but was not right. They have sought all kinds of cures, when the cure for the soul is the action of the secret rays multiplied by the power of the balanced threefold flame of the heart of Christ and Buddha.
So, beloved, in preparation for this auspicious occasion, our coming together at this conference with Lord Gautama Buddha (and perhaps another whose name is not on the program <5>), and in anticipation of the turning of the year and the configuration of the planets in the heavens, <6> we the five have gone before the Lords of Karma, bowing before them to offer ourselves in their service.
The result of this offering we have made to the Lords of Karma is that the following dispensation has been handed down: The Lords of Karma have accepted my offer to join the Karmic Board. Therefore I have become now the eighth member of that board, <7> and my role shall be to assist those who have Light who are sincere but who have strayed from the track of reality, considering that their karma was too hard to bear.
Even some among this worldwide Community have neglected to invoke the violet flame but rather have become incensed that they should have to bear so much karma, though it be their own. So, beloved, I would teach all who apply to me, those in this Community and throughout the earth, what they need to know to make it—all the way Home. I would teach a certain level of souls who, with my support and the support of all of us, will have the opportunity to make it whereas without that support they might not make it. This blessed dispensation, beloved, is by the grace and the gentleness of all Buddhas.
Therefore, first and foremost, we would desire your cooperation through these days together so that you might enter in to prayer sessions focusing on the exorcism of foul spirits and demons that you have allowed to enter your consciousness by following the way which is not the true way. If you are to be liberated from your own anger, you must be delivered from the causes of anger and the entities that have swept through you as birds of prey to take up their abode in the branches of your tree of life.
Note well, beloved, that once these birds of prey have been allowed in, it does require a greater-than-human force to eliminate them. But the first requirement is desire, the desire to be free of demons, entities and false hierarchs who come to empower you, to give you the sense of great strength, to give you the sense that you somehow have a superior mind, a superior energy and the ability to manipulate others.
This is the beginning of the left-handed path. It begins, as I have said, when you allow into your house that which is unclean, that which is prideful, that which is the spirit of anger. Thus, you see, unless you come to your knees, confess this and literally vomit up out of your being these foul spirits, things will only go from bad to worse.
The temptation to enter the left-handed path comes to individuals in every religious movement. There are always some who are infested with foul spirits, and the open door to those spirits is always anger and pride and the desire for power and the power to control others. And the more individuals are puffed up in this state, the more they attract to themselves false hierarchs, ghostly shadows of discarnates that now become a part of their aura, and thereby their selfhood is altered.
To you, then, who have received so much comes this warning from the Lords of Karma and from ourselves: Be vigilant that you do not allow the false thief to come in the night to take from you the wholeness and oneness of your being in God.
How will you know that the false one has entered? You will know because you are no longer true to yourself. You will begin to entertain false notions about the Path and the Teaching itself, seeking the shortest shortcut you can take to gain not God’s power but human power.
False hierarchs and entities play upon you with the offering of power, as they always have, but the true adepts come offering the spirit of gentleness. Gentleness is the other side of power. He who is gentle and affixed in the very heart and inner being of the gentle I AM Presence, he is the one who is in control. But it is a God-control and not a human control of the forces at large on earth who in their insanity are manipulating governments and nations in the wrong direction.
So the warning comes, beloved, as a reminder that you have entered a very high calling, the highest path that is on the planet today. You have entered this path. You must guard the citadel of being. You must guard against the voices that mutter and peep in this ear and that ear. Surely you must guard against gossip of all kinds. You must guard the sanctity of your temple and return in profound humility to your God.
When those who have allowed the negative elements to enter their lives and households are willing to surrender them, they will come to their knees and weep before the altar that they might return to safe haven and the protection of the Dhyani Buddhas and the Great White Brotherhood.
Thus, to those who are willing to receive my assistance and will accept the challenge of the hour to balance a heavy karma, to those who are willing to admit that they may have been led this way or that, I say, I will help you. I will prepare you. I will show you how in profound humility and with inner strength you will master all flaws of character that are open doors to negative spirals and negative traits and you will get on with your reason for being—why you embodied in this life in the circumstances you find yourselves—and you will know that you embodied to balance your karma so that you can fulfill your mission.
If you devote yourself to the path of karma yoga, you need not have the goal of the ascension or any goal in particular. Balancing karma is like submitting to the grades of school. You start in kindergarten and you move on. You prepare yourself for life, mastering a trade, a profession, with a tool of the hand or the mind, sharpening your skills as practice makes perfect.
Balancing karma eliminates shackles that tie you to lower levels of the astral plane and people who are not of the Light. Balancing karma is the true means of soul liberation. Ultimately, balancing karma gives you the freedom to be who you desire to be.
Failure to balance karma on the path of karma yoga but taking another path that may be a flash in the pan and then nothing or one of impressing many and then finding oneself bankrupt of soul and of one’s own possessions—this is sidestepping the greatest opportunity for soul liberation that some of you have seen in ten thousand years.
It is well to open your eyes and see that it is easier to yoke yourself to the oxen, to become for a season the ox that treadeth out the corn, <8> than it is to take all the devious routes that will get you somewhere quickly and nowhere easily and cause you to increase your karma rather than decrease it.
Karma balancing is joyous. When you serve El Morya, Saint Germain, Jesus and the splendid ones of Light who minister to you, each and every day you balance great karma. You balance karma by putting your hand to the plow of publishing the Teachings of the Ascended Masters, thereby making it possible for millions on earth to benefit from the teaching that you send forth.
Blessed ones, do you not note time and time again how the organization, the Ascended Masters, the Messengers and the chelas are pacesetters?
No sooner does the word go forth from the altar, no sooner is the momentum of your decrees released than do people here and there throughout the world catch the flame. Yes, they catch the thought and they enter a new level of their own Higher Consciousness.
They discover ways and means to solve their problems because the flame of the altar has gone forth through you and impressed upon the mass consciousness a design of the Mind of God that will therefore become permanent in the earth. Surely I must tell you what a great alchemy goes forth from this altar and the flame of the ark of the covenant that blazes upon it!
Remember, then, that you are here in embodiment to lock in to the spiritual path so that your soul may not be lost at the conclusion of this life. Yes, I will say it again: you are here to balance karma and to gain inner wholeness so that you will have attained to an appreciably higher level of being than that which you had achieved when you entered this life.
That is all that we ask: that you transcend yourself once, twice and many times over and that you do not behave as spoiled children, so spoiled that you are not even willing to pick up the toys that you have left strewn here and there upon the earth—dangerous toys, karmic toys that will surely burden others unless you pick them up and put them into the all-consuming fire.
You must be willing to clean up your mess. And if your parents did not love you enough to teach you how to clean up your mess, then I say, give yourselves a spanking. Give yourselves a good spanking, beloved ones, and decide you will no longer be the spoiled brats of the West.
Yes, we the Dhyani Buddhas speak of those of the West who are not able to suffer even a pinprick on their little finger. We speak of them as spoiled brats.
If you are too spoiled to sacrifice, to give of yourselves, to work hard and clean up the mess of karma you have made, well, beloved ones, I above all have great, great divine pity for you; and for this reason I have desired to assist the Lords of Karma. I do this, as you know, on behalf of the five of us and I employ the rays of the five. Therefore I am in the very heart and center of all being and I can bring those five elements to bear upon your life and your concerns.
So, while you are in the way of healing your inner child, be good parents and do not spoil that inner child. For that child is the element of self, of soul, that can most readily unite with the Holy Christ Self and the seed of the Buddha unfolding.
Try it, beloved ones! Try being strict with yourselves. Try following the disciplines of the Buddhas and see how quickly you will come to know your victories and how you will soon leave off the self-indulgences that have already caused you to tarry on earth too many tens of thousands of years. Take the high road, beloved. For that is the road where I shall meet you.
And I will tell you in this hour that I could not hide from the Messenger this announcement for many days, for she did see the eighth one added to the Lords of Karma—myself. I tell you this, beloved, so that you might know that the Messenger also dwells in many octaves.
For the love of God in you all, for the love of hierarchy and the contact with hierarchy at the nexus of the figure eight that you find in the Messenger, we are come to serve you, to raise you up and to strip you of all unnecessary fat and self-indulgence.
Thus, the quickening is come, for it must come.
May your quickening bear profound fruit.
I seal you in the heart of the five. I AM Vairochana.
