The Empowerment of the Incarnation of God

To Make Oneself the Fitting Habitation of God

The Power to Send Forth the Thunderbolt

The incarnation of God, beloved, is indeed empowering when you have it, when you internalize it, when God is not only a seed of light within you or a profile of Ishvara¹ but in actuality a God that has expanded because you have pursued the God consciousness.

Incarnation can be a spiritual incarnation. Sometimes it is said, “That one is an incarnation of beauty,” “... an incarnation of absolute success,” “... an incarnation of the gift of music.” What do you incarnate? Whom do you incarnate? Begin to think about it now. What and who lives within you? If you can resolve this conundrum, you will come to understand that all lesser inhabitants (which may be voices of the night, of the astral plane, demons, records that are negative), all these various elements that you may have allowed to occupy your temple are, quote, “incarnations.”

So the goal is to call to the I AM Presence and the Holy Christ Self, as the messenger has taught you, to occupy the four lower bodies, to occupy the quadrants.² For in so occupying, then those quadrants shall be filled with the light of the I AM Presence and the Holy Christ Self. “Occupy till I come,” saith the Lord.³ So you must call to higher levels of being to occupy lower levels of being so that you do not walk the earth [with both] that which is above the belt, [which] is of God, and that which is below, [which] is the electronic belt of the records of karma with which you wrestle in your therapy sessions.⁴

Whom Would You Invite to Occupy Your Temple?

So, I give you a moment to ponder. Decide, if you will, or even consider and think about, now, what would be, if you could will it so, the aspect of God who would incarnate in you. Whom would you invite to occupy your temple? For example, who of the many manifestations that you see out of India, out of Buddhism, who and what, what vibration, what master? [16-second pause] I dare say you will ponder this for many days to be thoughtful, to consider.

But I would make the point that since you seek empowerment to work the works of God in the earth and since the incarnation of an aspect of God in you is key to that, you would see to it that in the service you would render and the empowerment you would receive, you have enthroned God in your temple and cast down all idols, all idols of the self.

And as that incarnation is adored by you in the path of devotion, so in that path of devotion you would come to experience increments of empowerment as that God-manifestation in you would be secure in the level of your attainment, the level of your honor, the level of your sealing the harmony of being and saying: “Thus far, no farther! I shall imitate, I shall follow the path of the imitation of my God within me. And there shall be no other gods before me, behind me, to my right, to my left, beneath, above or in the internal folds of my being.”

Christ and Buddha have called you to occupy the temple until their coming.⁵ You must go first, clean out the Augean stables.⁶ Make a place ready. Scour the inner four lower bodies with violet flame. Put the circle and sword of blue flame and the ring-pass-not⁷ around yourself. The point here is to make oneself the fitting habitation of God. God living in you eventually calls you to his heart, bonds with you. So now you are not two but one. You in God and God in you move about the earth.

Contemplate the Inner God

Now you can understand a certain terminology of the ascended masters: “I AM a God-free being. I AM a God-manifestation. I AM God who dwelleth in my temple.” Now you can understand what it means to be a God-man—it means to be the full manifestation of God as male and female. These temples were once inhabited by your Holy Christ Self with the exception that these were bodies of a higher vibration that sustained immortality. Thus, you could walk the earth as immortals and as God’s/[as Gods].

Understand, then, the right use of that term: as God’s (as God apostrophe s), meaning as belonging to God; and as Gods (in the plural), for when you are an extension of God and God is individualized and indwelling in you, then you partake of that God and you are no longer a hu-man but a God-man.⁸ When you understand this properly, you will see that it is not idolatry but it is the logical succession of whence, how and whither: Who am I? Why am I here? Surely not to be a mortal forever, but some day very soon to put on the garments once again that I lost of my immortality.

I commend you, then, to contemplate the inner God, to remember the teaching of Christ: Do not look for the kingdom here and there, but look, for the kingdom of God dwelleth in you.⁹ The consciousness of God dwelleth in you.

The Power of the Vajra and the Condition of Its Use

I desire that you should note the power of the diamond and the fiat “Vajra!”¹⁰ The greater the momentum of godliness within you, the greater the power of your spoken word to send forth the thunderbolt with the word “Vajra.” I AM the Vajrasattva. When you say that name, Vajra, I also am a part of it. And once again you see the Eastern teaching, that even the Vajra, the spoken word of the thunderbolt, is personified being as God.

So I give you this thunderbolt, this Vajra. But I tell you the condition. Use it in love. Use it in purity. Never, never use the powers of God to destroy your enemies, for you will immediately be stripped of all power should you do so. Never use the name of God or a fiat or a mantra when you are not in harmony, not centered in love and wisdom and the will of God.

Be careful with the use of the spoken word, for you have more energy than you have ever had by the use of that word. Do not misqualify it. Do not become fanatical. Do not ever give fiats if you have not first controlled anger or other emotions. The use of a word such as Vajra is holy, profoundly holy. For you to use it, beloved, I am taking a calculated risk, a risk in so giving it to you. But I point out, as I have just said, its misuse will create an instantaneous loss of the gift permanently.

Therefore be sparing. And when you are exalted in your mantras and prayers to God and you are aloft in the music of the spheres, begin with a quiet “Vajra.” Begin it within the soul and in the heart and whisper it, “Vajra. Vajra.” Test it. Hear the sound. Feel the sound. Use it gently until you know when you know you are out of control or in control and therefore able to use it.

Since people become upset very quickly and often, for no good reason, and emotions run high, I recommend that you use standard decrees to deal with those energies and save your “Vajra” for those moments of bliss in God, whispering, then softly, then more strongly, but never really shouting.

I tell you this, beloved, because the diamond of this thunderbolt is able to shatter centuries of layers of karma that must be broken up as you would break up hard substance. Earth needs a shake-up. It also needs a shakedown.

See the Plausibility of God Dwelling in You

Know, then, that we come to accelerate this planetary change on behalf of all who have spoken today and at this conference. May you see the plausibility of God dwelling in you and honor that Presence by correct speech, Right Mindfulness, and the Eightfold Path of the Buddha¹¹ and the Christ.

I AM Vajrasattva. I am in the earth and I tarry, as others do, for the hour of the victory of the sons and daughters of God. And so I say to you, sons and daughters of God, claim your victory in this hour and stand upon it in the name of Vajrasattva!

Background on Vajrasattva

From a lecture by the Messenger Elizabeth Clare Prophet
delivered on June 30, 1995, in the Heart of the Inner Retreat

In the mystical path of Vajrayana Buddhism, Vajrasattva represents the principle of purity and purification. We read in The Encyclopedia of Eastern Philosophy and Religion that “Vajrasattva embodies the capacity to eliminate spiritual impurities of all kinds, particularly neglected commitments toward one’s teacher and one’s own spiritual development.”

That is a very interesting way of approaching Vajrasattva— neglected commitments. One of the first lessons that El Morya taught me is, do not make a commitment unless you are absolutely certain that you will fulfill that commitment. Do not be glib with your words, promising this and that and never coming through with that promise.

In Vajrayana Buddhism, Vajrasattva is not only a divine being but also a state of attainment. The Vajrayana school teaches that those who are close to soul liberation, or nirvana, can reach the state of Vajrasattva. Followers of this school seek to become a Vajrasattva—a diamond-souled transcendent being.

The name Vajrasattva has been variously translated from the Sanskrit as “Diamond Being,” “Diamond Nature” and “the Indestructible-minded One.” The root vajra means “diamond.” In Hinduism, it refers to a scepterlike symbol of the thunderbolt. According to Buddhist teachings, the vajra cleaves through ignorance and therefore represents the indestructible nature of the Buddha’s wisdom and the victory of knowledge over illusion.

One Buddhist text describes Vajrasattva as “the Being without origination and destruction, the all-good, the soul-substance of all, the enlightened one” (Jnana-siddhi, quoted in Shashi Bhushan Dasgupta, An Introduction to Tantric Buddhism [Berkeley, Calif.: Shambhala, 1974], p. 79).

Another text says of him, “Perfect knowledge is his only eye. He is the stainless embodiment of all knowledge, pure, all-pervading, the subtle seed of all creation, the immutable” (Jnana-siddhi, chap. xv).

In Buddhist art, Vajrasattva is depicted as a white Buddha. Dilgo Khyentse says, “We visualize Vajrasattva above our head, utterly peaceful and smiling, brilliant white like a dazzling snow mountain illuminated by the rays of a hundred thousand suns. He sits upon a thousand-petaled white lotus and a moon disc. In his right hand he holds a golden vajra at his heart center. In his left hand, a silver bell resting at his hip. He is adorned with five silken garments and eight jewelled ornaments.

“We should visualize Vajrasattva not as though made of flesh and blood but like a rainbow in the sky. He is pervaded by the wisdom and compassion of all the Buddhas” (Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo, The Excellent Path to Enlightenment, explained by Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche [Boulder, Colo.: Nalanda Translation Committee, 1987], pp. 46-47).

Vajrasattva is the synthesis of the Five Dhyani Buddhas and he has the attainment of all five. The ascended masters teach that Vajrasattva embodies the five secret rays and the five elements as well as the five personalities of the Five Dhyani Buddhas. The term “Dhyani Buddha” is roughly translated from the Sanskrit as “Meditation Buddha.”

The Five Dhyani Buddhas are Vairochana, Akshobhya, Ratnasambhava, Amitabha, Amoghasiddhi. They are not historical figures, like Gautama Buddha, but they are “celestial Buddhas”— transcendent beings who symbolize universal divine principles or forces. They represent various aspects of the enlightened consciousness and are healers of the mind and soul.

Each of the Five Dhyani Buddhas embodies one of the five wisdoms. These wisdoms antidote the five deadly poisons that are of ultimate danger to the soul’s spiritual progress:

1. Vairochana’s All-Pervading Wisdom of the Dharmakaya antidotes the poison of ignorance.

2. Akshobhya’s Mirrorlike Wisdom antidotes the poison of anger, hate and hate creation.

3. Ratnasambhava’s Wisdom of Equality antidotes the poison of spiritual, intellectual and human pride.

4. Amitabha’s Discriminating Wisdom antidotes the poison of the passions—all cravings, covetousness, greed and lust.

5. Amoghasiddhi’s All-Accomplishing Wisdom, the Wisdom of Perfected Action, antidotes the poison of envy and jealousy.

The five wisdoms of the Five Dhyani Buddhas are integrated in Vajrasattva. In addition, the ascended masters teach that Vajrasattva embodies a sixth wisdom—the Wisdom of the Diamond Will of God, which antidotes a sixth poison—the poison of non-Will and non-Being, fear, doubt and non-belief in God, the Great Guru.

Each Buddha has a bija, or seed syllable, which represents his essence. Vairochana’s bija is Om. Akshobhya’s, Hum. Ratnasambhava’s, Tram. Amitabha’s, Hrih. Amoghasiddhi’s, Ah. Vajrasattva’s bija is Hum. We can invoke the Five Dhyani Buddhas and Vajrasattva by giving their bijas or their bija mantras.

The mantra always begins with the Om, says the name of the Buddha, and concludes with their seed syllable. These are the six:

Om Vairochana Om! [given 3 times]
Om Akshobhya Hum! [given 3 times]
Om Ratnasambhava Tram! [given 3 times]
Om Amitabha Hrih! [given 3 times]
Om Amoghasiddhi Ah! [given 3 times]
Om Vajrasattva Hum! [given 5 times]

“The Summit Lighthouse Sheds Its Radiance o’er All the World to Manifest as Pearls of Wisdom.”

This dictation by Vajrasattva was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood Elizabeth Clare Prophet on Friday, June 30, 1995, during the 11-day conference, FREEDOM 1995: “Soul Evolution—A Fusion of Mind and Spirit,, held at the Royal Teton Ranch, Park County, Montana.

1. See Ishvara, June 30, 1995, “An Understanding of a Very Personal God,” and “Background on Ishvara,” in Pearl no. 6, this volume.

2. The messenger has taught this call for clearing the four compartments of the mind:

3. Luke 19:13.

4. One interpretation of this statement is that if you don’t have the I AM Presence and Holy Christ Self occupying the quadrants of being, you will walk the earth as described, half of you in heaven and half still stuck in darkness and manifesting it. If you make the calls, then your I AM Presence and Holy Christ Self can occupy all of your being, and both above and below the electronic belt will be manifesting the presence of God. The darkness in the electronic belt can be sealed so that it does not control that portion of your being.

5.Occupy the temple until the coming of Christ and Buddha. In a dictation on October 4, 1987, Jesus Christ said: “Every area of life must have my disciple standing there holding the key that does unlock the mystery of the Word and the Path whereby every branch of service and knowledge and endeavor might be once again endued with the flame of Gautama Buddha, Padma Sambhava, Sanat Kumara, Lord Maitreya, my brothers, my friends, my cohorts of Light.

“Heaven is filled with the witness of the glory not alone of my Coming but of His Appearing.... And my speaking is of the Eternal Logos, who I AM, who you also can be and are. For in the highest planes of thy being, O beloved, I, Jesus, affirm it: Thou art the living Christ!

“Now I speak to your soul... and I implore you, my soul, my brides, come now and determine and desire with all of your desiring to be that Christ whom thou art—here in flesh, here in form. This world hath need of thee. Thou dost occupy the heavens and the stars. Now occupy earth till I come in the full glory of the physical manifestation long attended by many. Occupy till I come, beloved.

“And when you stand in my place, being my Self in form and embodying my Light, then I do come to you, Jesus, your Teacher, and I sponsor you, beloved. And you shall know a sponsorship never known before. For my legions of angels are ready and waiting for the ten thousand and more who shall hear me because I come pleading the cause of Saint Germain and world freedom.

“Without this victory, then, of a spiritual and physical defense for the nations, there shall not be seen in the earth nor a new age, nor a new day. Therefore, act swiftly and make haste, for I have called. I have called” (“The Call of the Cosmic Christ: Discipleship unto the Ascended Master Jesus Christ,” in 1987 PoW, vol. 30, no. 56, pp. 497-98).

In a dictation Jesus Christ delivered on Easter Sunday, March 31, 1991, he said: “Struggle if you must, strive if you will to overcome the patterns of the past. Self-correct! Call to me! Call to your Holy Christ Self! For I have said to you, ‘Occupy till I come.’ Therefore you may call to me and say, ‘O Jesus, my Lord and my Master, occupy my mind! Occupy my memory body! Occupy my heart! Occupy my soul! Occupy my temple, my physical body that is prepared for thee!’ And you may call to your Holy Christ Self to enter into these tabernacles of being, to enter and prepare the way for me, even as you serve as my assistant, as the handmaid of the Lord, that you might receive that Christ in your heart” (“Rise to the Higher Calling in God: Salvation through My Sacred Heart,” in 1991 Pearls of Wisdom, vol. 34, no. 18, p. 249).

In his July 5, 1991 dictation, Jesus said: “I ask you to accept me in the deepest levels of your being. If you can do this, beloved, defying the forces of darkness that have taken up their abode in the unconscious levels of being, at the subconscious, even at conscious awareness and levels of the etheric body—if you can, though standing before me as the shorn lamb, yet defy the force of Antichrist that has managed to enter at so many unguarded doors of consciousness, if you can hold that will and determination, I shall truly enter.... Allow me to occupy. For I must have your assent, your consent.... I ask you (for your free will must have its day) to simply say:

Jesus, I bid you enter my whole temple now!
By my free will, by my God-dominion, I welcome you!
And I let go of everything, my Lord.

“... If you give this fiat regularly, then each time your being passes through the cleansing fires of my heart and is washed by the waters of the Word I incarnate, you shall find again and again the opportunity to receive me” (“I Love You! My Heart/Thy Heart,” in 1991 Pearls of Wisdom, vol. 34, no. 41, p. 485).

On January 1, 1997, the messenger said: “In some parts of our being (often at the point of the belly, the solar plexus) we have a vacuum—we have empty spaces or spaces that are not filled with light but perhaps with gray or other shades of lesser light. Jesus is not happy with that, so this is the mantra that is given to us... :

I call to my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ
to enter the vacuum of my being.

“When we make that call, Jesus fills our temple, enters it. Then when we seal the action and we go about our daily lives and do different things here and there, we are again subject to taking in lower vibrations. So we go back to our altar, or even just in our hearts or in our minds, wherever we are, and we say this: ‘I call to my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ to enter the vacuum of my being.’Then he enters and he occupies time and space within our four lower bodies. So we ask you throughout the world to give the fiat at the beginning of each service.... I recommend you give it nine times as a fiery fiat and a call to Jesus” (Elizabeth Clare Prophet, January 1, 1997, “Assignments for Chelas from Vaivasvata Manu and an Opportunity from Djwal Kul,” in 2002 Pearls of Wisdom, vol. 45, no. 36, pp. 247-48).

6. Augean stables. The fifth labor of Hercules was to clean the Augean stables in a single day. Augeas had thousands of cattle and their stalls had not been cleared out for years. Hercules diverted the courses of two rivers and made them flow through the stables in a great flood that washed out the filth in no time at all.

7.Ring-pass-not. Archeia Charity, in her October 5, 1975 Pearl, instructed: “Take the ritual which the archangels practice at the rising and the setting of the sun when the torch of love is passed by angels of the dawn and angels of the dusk. Take the ritual of the archangels and make it all your own, and prove thereby the victory of love on Terra. Prove that your love is the holy habitation of the LORD God of hosts and that this love, by your will firmed in the fire of God-determination, will not be defiled by the hordes of the night. Stand... facing the chart of the I AM Presence and make your inner attunement with the star of your divinity. Meditate upon your heart and the flame therein and behold the arc ascend into the center of the Divine Monad. Now take your right hand and dip it into the fires of your heart and draw the circle of our oneness around yourselves as you stand in adoration of the One. Visualize this circle, twelve feet in diameter, as a line of sacred fire. It is your ring-pass-not. Within that circle of oneness is the forcefield of Alpha and Omega; and you focus the T’ai chi, the plus and minus of cosmic energies, where you are” (“The Fire of Love Descending to Implement the Judgment,” in 1975 Pearls of Wisdom, vol. 18, no. 40, p. 206; Vials of the Seven Last Plagues, ch. 6, pp. 37-38).

In a dictation given on July 3, 1973, K-17 said: “In situations of danger, [the ring-pass-not] is an added protection, sealing your tube of light in an armor that is like the bars that are placed on automobiles so that when they roll in their testing, they roll on the bars. This means that when you are in situations and you have to roll with the punches and with the knocks, there is a ring-pass-not that is an extra protection that seals you from the intrusion of violence against your physical body....Thus I urge you to call for the ring-pass-not, to keep it about you. For it will insulate you from the mass consciousness, and it will also serve as an electrode to intensify the action of the All-Seeing Eye of God so that you may perceive those threats and dangers that are sent against your lives as you seek to preserve the honor and the integrity of our flame” (“Agents for the Cosmic Christ,” Part 2, 1974 Pearls of Wisdom, vol. 17, no. 12, p. 51).

Lord Maitreya, in a dictation on December 30, 1973, spoke of harmony as the key in the center of the ring-pass-not. He said: “I draw a circle of fire around you. And that ring of fire is known as a ring-pass-not. So long as you maintain the law of harmony and acknowledge harmony as the key in the center of the ring, nothing can pass that ring. When you break the harmony you must quickly call upon the law of forgiveness, reestablish the tube of light, call to Archangel Michael for protection, and reinvoke the ring-pass-not from the heart of Maitreya. If you will remember this throughout this life, you can always have a focus of the ring-pass-not. But, you see, inharmony released from within will immediately dissolve that ring; therefore, it must be reinvoked” (“A Heart Initiation,” in 1984 Pearls of Wisdom, vol. 27, no. 46, p. 384).

8. No longer a hu-man but a God-man. In his October 24, 1958 Pearls of Wisdom (vol. 1, no. 11), El Morya explained the meaning of the words “Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live” (Exod. 33:19, 20). He said: “Unascended mankind have not understood this statement. It is a mystery that I hereby reveal: No man shall see God and live—as man. For once man has seen the glory of the LORD face to face, he can no longer live as mortal man. Transformed by his vision of the LORD in the glory of the I AM THAT I AM, he must henceforth live as the God he has seen in man-ifestation. Having seen the LORD ’s image and likeness, he is re-created after that image and likeness. The God-man has displaced the hu-man, or the ‘hewn-man’—that man that was ‘made of the dust of the ground’” (Gen. 2:7).

9. Luke 17:20, 21.

10. Vajra is a Sanskrit word rendered as thunderbolt or diamond; adamantine; that which is hard, impenetrable; that which destroys but is itself indestructible. It is also a scepterlike symbol of the thunderbolt, representing the adamantine nature of Truth. According to Buddhist teaching, the vajra cleaves through ignorance and symbolizes the indestructible nature of the Buddha’s wisdom and the victory of knowledge over illusion.

11. The precepts of the Eightfold Path taught by Gautama Buddha are (1) Right Understanding (or Right Views), (2) Right Aspiration (or Right Thought), (3) Right Speech, (4) Right Action, (5) Right Livelihood, (6) Right Effort, (7) Right Mindfulness, (8) and Right Concentration (or Right Absorption of God).

In Gautama Buddha’s first sermon following his enlightenment, he outlined the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path. He explained that by following this path and avoiding the extremes of self-indulgence and self-mortification, one gains knowledge of the Middle Way. The Four Noble Truths state that (1) life is dukkha, “suffering,” (2) the cause of suffering is inordinate desire, (3) freedom from suffering is in the attainment of nirvana, (4) the way to this liberation is through the Eightfold Path. See Elizabeth Clare Prophet, May 20, 1989, “The Message of the Inner Buddha: ‘Some Will Understand,’ ” in 1989 Pearls of Wisdom, vol. 32, no. 30, pp. 446-50; and “The Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path,” in 1983 Pearls of Wisdom, vol. 26, no. 21, pp. 166-67.
