You Have the Mind of God!
Light the Way! Be Lamplighters in the Earth!
This Is Not the Age of Do-Nothingness:
This Is the Age of Accelerated Doingness

...And so, the ancient ones knew the science of music and they used music to penetrate the atom with the mind—penetrating the atom (long before its rediscovery in the West in recent history), penetrating the atom of being, penetrating the five secret rays...

If you would know the power of music whereby the soul follows sound to the heart of being, then study this form of music, the Indian raga, which you have just heard. <1> For it does bring you into the encounter with the cosmic teacher. It does bring you into a polarity of the plus and the minus—you, the minus, negative, feminine polarity; the teacher, the plus, positive, masculine polarity. When you are in polarity, beloved, with such music, you enter into a compartment of being that truly is the heart and the goal of meditation.

Think of yourself, then, as the point of an arrow that follows the sound to its source. You will find yourself going back to the Source of being as you intone the sacred Om. You return to the heart of creation and the Great Central Sun, the Word with Brahman.

Let us do this, for in my Causal Body this day I would bring you as close to the very heart of creation, to the living Word, as you are able to approach, according to your spiritual evolution.

[Manjushri sounds the Om with his name, and the congregation joins him:]

Ommmmmmmmmmmmmm Man-ju-shri

Thus, by my sounding of the Om with my name, I have vested you with a slice of the spiral of my being. And by your own sounding of the Om with my name, you have approached a higher level of contact with the center of creation. If you choose to do this daily and if you choose to recite my mantras, <2> I will assist you in coming to the oneness of the Mind of God.

Where did the apostle Paul get the notion that you should let the Mind of God be in you that was also in Christ Jesus? <3> So it is the teaching of the Lord Christ and the Lord Buddha unto levels of humanity and times far beyond recorded history.

Know, then, that all partake of the Universal Mind. All have but one Mind, for there is only one Mind. And that Mind is God. Thus each one is a cup bearing a portion of the Mind of God; yet the portion need not be limited.

There is a question that is asked: Can the individual contain the whole ocean or must he be content with the drop? Can the individual contain the whole Mind of God or only a molecule?

This question, beloved, does not make sense, for the whole of the Mind of God is contained in a single molecule or a single drop of the ocean. Thus, any way you look at it, you have the Mind of God.

Yes, you have it. The only question is: Do you use it? Do you enter it as a great sphere of Light, as though you would enter a pulsating sphere of the one Mind, pulsating, stimulating in you through your Higher Self your soul, your spiritual faculties, your chakras, all that you need to know to solve the problems of your own path and dharma and karma and all that you need to know to solve the problems of the earth?

The mental body and the brain itself, beloved, as well as the central nervous system are like cosmic instruments, and upon those instruments the Mind of God does play. And for many who advance on the Path, their communion with the Mind of God does bypass the brain, the body and even the mental sheath.

You would think this amazing, but it is not. Such communion takes place in the heart of the individual who has meditated upon the Mind of God, almost unconsciously, as a steady listening, as a steady stimulation, as a steady plucking of the heart strings of one such as Moses, who communed with the I AM THAT I AM, and all exalted beings who preceded him on the pathway of realization of the One.

So, beloved, you may not even realize when the source of reason, the Logos within you, has not been impressed upon you through the brain, the central nervous system, or any organ of the body. Then too, there is the seat of knowledge in the heart, the seat of wisdom in the heart and, again, this knowledge and this wisdom come out of the threefold flame and are not conveyed merely through the organs of the body.

There are records of those who have been pronounced dead and have returned again to tell the tale. They have noted that they had their full mental faculties and yet they could not speak through the body nor think through the body. Moreover, they felt themselves rising up out of the body as they looked down upon it. The body was useless and yet they retained all knowledge of self and in some cases increased in the great knowledge of the Higher Self. And the “mind,” free of encapsulation in the skull, did explore worlds beyond.

Think not, then, that there is any real death, for there is not. There is only transition from this level to the next level, and you need not go through transition to proceed on in the levels of being. But enter into meditation. Pursue yoga if you choose. Find the path of meditation that is right for you. Exercise the seven chakras and the eighth, and combine visualization, the spoken Word, meditation, thoughtforms and contact with all stars of being, i.e., the Causal Bodies of the Sons of God, all in one moment.

You have this capacity! You know that at any moment your mind can flit here and there like a butterfly and not fix on anything in particular. If this is so, beloved—and follow my logic—then you ought to be able to focus on many, many things at once since you already do so in your distractions, yet not with mastery.

Why not replace your distractions with focalizations—many focalizations—and visualize needlelike rays of light and points of light going forth from the Mind of God, which is superimposed upon you as your Higher Self.

Then walk the earth in your Higher Self and let those needlelike rays converge with others. And see how vast and strong is the network of the antahkarana of which your El Morya speaks <4>—yes, the antahkarana of a cosmos that connects the mantras, the devotions, the prayers and the hearts of all those who serve the cause of Divine Love.

Think of Universal Being. Think of how the Ashram rituals <5> were prepared for you so carefully by El Morya decades ago that you might be one with all who are one in that web of light and cosmic consciousness.

Think, then, of how there is a vast interchange between the Mind of God and all who have entered that Mind. Think of how many of your ascended brothers and sisters have saturated themselves with a certain knowledge and a certain wisdom. Think how when you have made yourself ready, I or any one of these Ascended Masters, or the Archangels or Elohim of the Second Ray, can impart to you, across the shuttle of that antahkarana, wisdom encapsulated in an ampule. We can open this ampule and drop by drop deposit wisdom into your crown chakra.

This is predicated on your having raised the sacred fire from the base-of-the-spine chakra to the crown. Having achieved this degree of self-mastery, you can receive ampules of wisdom in the vast disciplines that those who have graduated from earth’s schoolroom have already entered into. And each drop from the opened ampule will permeate all the cells and atoms of your being, causing them to pulsate with that ever-new knowledge that comes from the Mind of God.

See how all have access to the computer of the Mind of God and to infinite knowledge. See how this patterning goes on in the earth and how much more knowledge you have access to than you did fifty years ago.

Why, we are light-years ahead in the acceleration of the working even of the human mind. And yet, at the same time diseases of the brain such as Alzheimer’s and all types of tumors and degradations of the body that ought not to be, that are not the outpicturing of the true Inner Self, have come upon a people for the many reasons discussed by your professional speakers <6> and for the many reasons we have taught, including mankind’s karma.

I AM Manjushri!

And I AM for your taking wise dominion over the earth and for your wise taking care of all resources available to you.

I AM for practicality.

I AM for your making that which is the nearest right move, even though it be not the perfect move of the moment that you would prefer.

Above all, do not stagnate. Do what you can do within the hour, within the day, within the year. Plan well. But, for God’s sake, do not do nothing! For this is not the age of do-nothingness for the chelas of Manjushri and Maitreya and Gautama. This is the age of accelerated doingness.

We see many on earth operating at high stress levels because they attempt to catch up with the workings of the Mind of God within themselves, but they go about it in a human way and thus their bodies suffer. Sometimes, just when they are at the peak of their careers, they find that they must deal with problems in their physical bodies that are overwhelming.

I say, light the way! Be the lamplighters in the earth and know that the lighting of the way to balance in the four lower bodies is the great gift of kindness, the great gift of enlightenment that you can give to many.

It seems that just when man or woman is old enough and wise enough and free enough from the lusts of the flesh to enter into a spirituality that is truly self-transcending, he or she is no longer able to concentrate, no longer able to study, no longer able to enter into the joys that can come to those who prepare the body and the mind for elevation to the etheric octaves—the retreats and the cities of Light that are precursors to golden ages yet to come on earth. Thus, one may pass from the screen of life just at the moment when he or she finally glimpses the Infinite and begins to know and value the correspondence of the soul to the Almighty One.

What a pity, beloved, that people everywhere are shortening their life span! Is it not the better part of kindness and wisdom, then, to impart the knowledge you have and sometimes to do so almost to the point of being rude when you know that people need it and yet do not want it, for they cannot be bothered, they do not want to change, they are in their groove, they are lazy of mind and ignorant of mind?

So, then, throw a cosmic spear of white fire and blue lightning to pierce that ignorance (and even your own!) until, in the absence of that ignorance, they can wake up and discover that they have been in a stupor for too long, perhaps lifetimes. But now seeing the Light descend, they can enter into something more real, something more challenging, something that prickles.

And it is the Light that prickles, beloved. It is the Light that comes and activates self-awareness in God and allows the individual to realize even 10 percent of his spiritual potential. That in itself should propel him light-years beyond his current station.

Beloved ones, it is not a time to preserve one’s reputation! It is a time to say: I do not care what men shall say or think of me. I must quickly bring Truth to all whom I meet before the body is lost and the mind is lost, theirs and mine, before this or that one may find himself on the other side seeking entrance to the portals of birth to be born again to fulfill the purpose of the previous life, a life that did not ripen and mature into a spirituality that is made of the cosmic stuff that all sons and daughters of God were made of in the Beginning.

Thus, the cycles of life bring steps and stages. Happy are ye when you have put behind you your adolescence by the time you are fifty years old!—so that you can get on with being sages and comforters and counsellors to those who are behind you or ahead of you.

Yes, beloved, it is true: this nation is an adolescent nation! Superficiality is always there to tempt people away from any in-depth discussion about anything at all. I say, get beyond your adolescence and the desire to live in those devil-may-care years of irresponsibility for the rest of your life.

Getting stuck in the grooves of adolescence is such a pity, beloved—truly. Such a pity, indeed, when the joys and the frolicking of angels and the tongue-in-cheek Buddhas surely produce the greatest God-happiness available, with no downside, no addictions, no depression and no hangover. Yes, beloved hearts, the victory is nigh. The victory is nigh. But you must desire it and you must slay the beast of self-ignorance.

Yes, that ignorant animal magnetism simply produces a lazy mind, a slothful body, indulgence in foods that also densify the body and shut down the soul faculties. And then you wonder why you cannot complete this or that project. Suddenly everything in your world falls apart, for you do not have the strength of sacred fire in your chakras to hold together a matrix and to see it through to the finish.

I AM Manjushri and I have a great sense of humor. And you will know that sense of humor in your own life if you give my mantras. For it is humor on the Path that truly delivers you from the all-too-serious levels of fallen angels, who themselves have as their only laughter the laughter of the obscene, the macabre, and the sinister laughter of Death and Hell, which is not at all laughable.

Now I, Manjushri, wish to pierce a little point near the crown chakra that I might insert another <7> drop of wisdom’s light.

May wisdom be your Comforter.

May wisdom be your Home.

May wisdom be your Father-Mother and your own true being.

Wisdom now opens the door of cosmos. Behold the Goddess Theosophia, and know that the Divine Mother in multiple manifestations is here, there and everywhere to love you, to tutor your soul and to rescue you from your own demises.

I AM Manjushri, approaching ever closer and closer to the physical octave. May you find me and find me soon. For I am ready to take you with me to octaves of Light, where you shall put on luminous robes, robes of self-knowledge, and rejoice in the self-awareness you gain merely by being bathed in illumination’s flame. Then you shall return to earth again at dawn, knowing that there is truly a way to accomplish all things and to deliver this earth unto the heart of God.

[Congregation chants with Manjushri:]

Ommmmmmmmmmmmmm Man-ju-shri

[24-second standing ovation]

This dictation by beloved Manjushri was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood, Elizabeth Clare Prophet, following the dictation by Lord Maitreya on Saturday, July 3, 1993, during the ten-day conference FREEDOM 1993: “Healing the Earth,” held at the Royal Teton Ranch, Park County, Montana. Before the dictations by Maitreya and Manjushri, the Messenger delivered her lecture “The Path of the Buddha: Manjushri and the Bodhisattva Ideal.” The lecture and dictations are available on audiocassette (also includes the dictation by Gautama Buddha, which followed): 2 cassettes, 2 hr. 54 min., A93100. Also available separately: Lecture: 1 cassette, 1 hr. 24 min., B93100. Dictations of Maitreya, Manjushri and Gautama: 1 cassette, 1 hr. 30 min., B93101. [N.B. This dictation was edited for print by the Messenger under Manjushri’s direction.] Sections printed in bold italic type highlight fiats, mantras, affirmations, prayers and decrees that you can use in your daily decree sessions. The Messenger recommends that each week when you receive your Pearl of Wisdom, you type or write these out and place them in a special section in your decree book. The Messenger also encourages you to compose your own fiats and affirmations based on the Teachings of the Ascended Masters given in the Pearls of Wisdom.

1. “Raga Jhinjhoti,” performed by Shivkumar Sharma, was played as the meditation music before the dictation. The raga (Sanskrit, “color,” “tone,” “passion,” “fundamental melody”) is one of the ancient traditional melodic patterns or modes in Indian music. Ragas express specific moods and are associated with precise times of day.

2. Mantras to Manjushri: (1) Om Ah Ra Pa Tsa Na Dhih can be given to help develop wisdom, memory and the understanding of the scriptures. The final syllable, Dhih, is Manjushri’s bija, or seed syllable. The essence of a cosmic being is concentrated in his bija. The bija may be given alone or repeated as many times as possible after the final repetition of the mantra. (2) Om Wagi Shori Mum can be given to increase the effectiveness of communication and to deliver the Word. It means “Hail to the Lord of Speech!” Manjushri is known as the Lord of Speech and is revered as a master of eloquence. (3) Gate Gate Paragate Parasamgate Bodhi Svaha invokes the wisdom of the Prajna Paramita scriptures and can also be given to Manjushri. It means “Gone, gone, gone beyond, gone wholly beyond—Enlightenment, hail!” or “Proceed, proceed, proceed beyond, proceed completely beyond—be founded in Enlightenment!” This mantra can propel us beyond illusion and the illusory self into reality and the Real Self.

3. Phil. 2:5.

4. For El Morya’s teaching on the antahkarana, see El Morya, July 8, 1990, “The Universal Ashram of Devotees of the Will of God,” in 1990 PoW, vol. 33 no. 34, pp. 431, 432, 434, 436, 438; also printed in Ashram Notes, pp. 203, 204, 207, 208, 211.

5. Ashram rituals. Between 1952 and 1958, prior to the founding of The Summit Lighthouse, the Ascended Master El Morya dictated to his amanuensis, Mark L. Prophet, 39 precious letters called Ashram Notes. These letters contain six rituals designed to link “hearts worldwide in a ritual of scheduled group meditations.” The letters and rituals have been compiled by Elizabeth Clare Prophet in a 215-page book, Ashram Notes (hardbound in brown Kivar leatherette with gold foil stamping and full-color dust jacket. The six rituals are also published separately in a 64-page book, Ashram Rituals (softbound). All six rituals are also recorded on a 2-audiocassette album, conducted by Elizabeth Clare Prophet and 500 devotees at the Royal Teton Ranch, so that you can give them along with the tape (2 hr., A90028).

6. During FREEDOM 1993: “Healing the Earth,” five internationally recognized authorities spoke on the environment and related issues, including the pollution of the body through environmental waste, radiation and toxins in the air, food, water and workplace. Three of these lectures are airing on Mrs. Prophet’s cable TV shows. They are also available for purchase on video- and audiocassette:

7. “Another drop of wisdom’s light.” At FREEDOM 1993, on June 27, 1993, Elohim Apollo and Lumina sponsored a special initiation of the crown chakra. They said: “Those, then, who have selflessly dedicated the chalice of the mind in the service of Light, in the service of Love, in the service of Wisdom—such ones among you and among all peoples receive in this moment the mighty touching of the crown chakra, delivered by the angels of our bands and angels of Jophiel and Christine. So they come. And there is therefore the measuring of the heart chakra and the crown. There is therefore the ampule of golden oil and you are anointed. You are anointed, beloved ones, at the point of the crown at spiritual levels. And gradually you will assimilate and absorb this holy oil. And you should note the quickening of the Mind of God within you, and you should pursue it with all fire of the heart” (1993 PoW, vol. 36 no. 38, pp. 535-36). See also Archangel Uriel, June 27, 1993, in 1993 PoW, vol. 36 no. 37, pp. 532-33.
