I AM Magda, and I magnify the Lord. I magnify his Law in hearts—hearts abounding in the joy of forgiveness and love, of being forgiven and of forgiving others.
I am grateful to have had the opportunity to be the one who was led to the Master’s feet so that all who followed after me, all who had a similar problem of the mastery of the chakras would know that God understands, that Jesus understands this struggle. And you know, as Saint Germain has said, “It is the sense of struggle that makes the struggle.”
When your heart strives to be holy and Godlike, when you want to be the fullness of all that Mother Mary is and all that the angelic hosts portray but you find the warring in your members, of which Paul spoke, remember that this struggle is not a real struggle, that the overcoming of energy spirals, which have flowed in habit patterns in the wrong direction, is a very present possibility.
You have but to think upon the magnet of the Christ consciousness, to meditate upon the fiery sphere of light that is the magnet of the Lord. You have but to let him magnetize and repolarize your energies and your energy flow to the heart and to the heart of your Presence. With the added impetus of the violet fire to transmute the old patterns, the old densities, you will see that the beginning of overcoming is the surrender of the sense of struggle.
You will then realize that God is the flow of energy through you and to you, that you have but to give him the energy and give him the flow and let him be the one who determines the flow of light as creativity within you. This light manifests as the greater glory of one’s own potential to be Christ and to be the fullness of the Father-Mother God in pursuing the family unit as the foundation of the golden-age society and as the matrix for the descent of avatars.
There is a time and a place for the path of celibacy. There is a time and a place for the vows of marriage and the rituals of communion between man and woman. In this age, hallowed by the presence of coming avatars, God is grateful to have instruments who will bear holy ones and train them in the way that they ought to go.1 And so he has provided a means for creative love to sweetly flow in the fulfillment of cosmic purpose and the balancing of energies for the ultimate Victory—the victory whereby man and woman who have found oneness in love will one day find oneness in the union of the soul with God in the marriage of twin flames and in the wholeness of life as it is lived in our octave.
The holiness of love must be restored, and the sacredness of the marriage ritual must be restored as a means whereby, through ministering love and holy service, man and woman may go forth to conquer energy spirals and to take dominion over the earth.
All energy is destined to return to God. I will say that again. All energy is destined to return to God!
The natural flow of energy in you is toward the Presence, toward the Christ. For the energy of God seeks that height of Being, just as water seeks its own level. So the energy of your being, if you will let it flow, merges into the love of God, the mighty River of Being.
If you will meditate, then, upon the heart, and sometimes upon the head (though not too intensively), you will find that all of the energies of your being will rise to that point of Christ awareness. And then, through your heart charged with love, you can release so much more of God’s energy to the planet as a whole through mantras and invocations. You see, the secret of the mastery of flow is that you give to your fellowman in service and in love all of the energy that God gives to you.
For if you allow energy to accumulate, if you hoard energy through the sin of avarice and lust, you will find that the accumulation of energy is an aggravation to the senses, a torment in the chakras. You will find that this is why mankind express that energy in carnal desire and in the perversions of the sacred energies. But if you spend your energies lovingly in service, to spend and be spent in the service of God, you will find that all of your energy is tied to the heart, to the Christ, to the Presence. And when the day is fulfilled, you will feel that all that you have is given to God and you are satisfied in the bliss of this communion. For by giving, your whole consciousness flows to God, and in God you move, you live, you flow with life.
This momentum of receiving and giving, of giving and receiving, becomes a platform whereby your soul, moving at etheric levels, rises in your higher vehicles to journey to the retreats of the masters, where you are given instruction in mastery and in God-control that has not yet been given in our outer assemblies. You find, then, that the desire for God reaches such a crescendo within your being that the satisfactions of the senses no longer can deliver you to the state of bliss which you desire.
There is something to be said for the fasting of the senses, the cessation of the use of the senses in this octave so that your spiritual senses might be quickened. And once they are quickened, the world will hold very little for you. For you will yearn for the Presence of the living God, for the Bridegroom, for the Cosmic Virgin, and for the interchange of energy that will repolarize your four lower bodies for a greater glory, for the weaving of the deathless solar body that you must have if you would attend the wedding feast of the Lord.2
You see, all of the energy that is given to you by God is necessary in the weaving of that garment. And if you spend that energy unnecessarily upon the lusts of the flesh, then you will find that there will be threads missing and holes in the garment. It will not be a wedding garment but the tatters of the sackcloth-and-mourning consciousness.
And so, the way of the descent of energy is the way of death. The way of the ascent of energy is the way of life. But there is more to it than this. For you see, for the proper nourishment of the body, the energies of Alpha and Omega must be actively descending and ascending upon the spinal altar. And so it is the mastery of flow and the mastery of the flow of love to which you should aspire.
To see, then, the love of the marriage ritual as consecrated by God—for your experience in time and space and in the hallowed circle of that union—is for the birth of the Christ in man, in woman, and in holy child.
I say, then, shirk not the responsibility of family life. For in the crucible of the family matrix you have the opportunity of focusing the trinity of Father, Mother, Son and Holy Spirit, of Joseph and Mary and Jesus. And the communion of energies that flow in the hearth of the home are the energies of the Holy Spirit.
Precious ones, there is meaning to life. There is meaning to love. All is not lost. All is not illusion and confusion. Restore your being to the joys of the simple truths and the simple experiences of communion with nature.
Far from the sophistications of the modern world, in communion with God you will find your love restored. You will find the sacred worth of giving love to another, of sharing that love for a high and holy purpose, for the coming of the Son of God into the hearts of all mankind.
Have you been disappointed or frustrated in the giving of love? Then it has been a selfish love. Who is worthy to receive love but the Christ? But is that all?
Do we not understand that the soul of our brother, of our sister, is also worthy to be given love because that soul is the potential to become God?
Man in the state of becoming whole needs your love! Man who is whole has not that great urgency.
Therefore, give and continue to give. For if your love is truly whole, it will not be longing for the return. It will be confident in the return of God’s love as the fulfillment of the cycles of life. For that which you give out must return to you. It is cosmic law. Trust in the action of the Law.
Do not be filled with sympathy, self-pity, self-love that is so quickly offended or hurt by the actions of another. You cannot predicate your actions upon the behavior of others. For if you do, the demons will have a heyday in your family and in your home.
If you are constantly waiting to be loved instead of waiting to love, then you will find that the disappointments will mount and you will find your life becoming a shipwreck. This is because you will have failed to recognize yourself as the lover of God, as the devotee of God, loving all whom you meet because there God lives.
Do not be concerned about persecution, for Jesus has told you that if you would follow him, you would also be persecuted. Persecution is simply the tensing of the arrows of darkness coming to a center of light to be consumed. And when the arrows come, welcome them and intensify light in order to consume them. If darkness must be free, and the only way that it can be free is through persecution, then do not resist that energy. Let it flow to you, and build your fire high. Build your fire hot. Let that energy be consumed so that another will not have to bear the weight of that persecution.
Learn to rejoice when you are counted worthy to suffer, and then learn to translate that suffering into world service, into joy, into victory, into expansion.
Welcome life, whatever it is. Welcome opportunity to demonstrate the Law. For you will find in every aspect—once you have ascended, when you have overcome in these points—that you will stand as teachers of evolutions of other worlds and you will look upon such circumstances as those which the Mother contrives. You will say to those who are your disciples, “I have experienced every step of the way. I can help you. Come unto me, all ye who are weary, who are heavy laden. For my burden is light, my yoke is easy. I will give you rest.”3 In the words of Christ Jesus, you will minister unto lifewaves you as yet know not of.
Welcome that experience and that testing. And as a final word may I say, be not overly attached to yourselves. Be not overly serious about your mistakes or your successes. For after all, the permanent identity of the atom of being is truly that which is Real, and that which is experienced in time and space is an outer portion of identity that is ever changing, ever becoming more of God.
Don’t take human relationships too seriously but continue in these, for they are a means to the recognition of the full effulgence of the Godhead in manifestation in man, in woman. Realize, then, that the world is truly a stage, as it was in the time of Jesus in the great drama of life. We knew that we were all players, that to each of us was assigned a role.
If you will remember that the life you live is a role which you play—a part—and you have a script, then you had better be certain that you read your lines well and accurately. For if you fulfill till the end, then you will have that glorious reunion.
If you will remember that all of this is a proving ground and a testing, then you will not be personally jarred by every experience, every shock wave, every emotion of those around you. Let it pass. Be airy and light as a latticework. Let the anger and the tribulation of the world flow through you. Let that energy be blessed by your holiness. Do not resist it, but do not hold it tenaciously. Let it flow through you. Let it be transformed, and go about your way.
If you are overly serious about your own faults, you will be overly serious about the faults of another and then you will not be quick to forgive. If you do not forgive, you will retain the image of fault, and in retaining that image of fault you will become an idolator. For this is idolatry: to hold the incorrect image.
Have you ever thought that by holding the memory of the sins of others you are worshiping idols—the idols of the carnal mind, the golden calf? You would not count yourself as being partakers of idolatry. Yet as long as you remember the wrongs that are done by others toward you, then you are bound to them by your idolatrous consciousness.
Only love can set life free! And only pure love is free of idolatry.
I come, then, to cast down the idols of Baal4 that have been erected even in your own consciousness and in your aura. Let them come crashing to the feet of our Lord. Let them be no more. They are a burden, as lead. They are too heavy for the flight into the wilderness and the Place Prepared.5 You will not make it if you carry your idols. Let us leave them here. Let us place them on the altar and let them be consumed.
As I take my leave of you, will you not, as you take your leave of this place, file before the lilies who toil not, neither do they spin,6 who are free of idolatry? See them as the flame of the resurrection, the flame of the ascension, as the altar of the sacred fire, as the fire that Abraham built to sacrifice his only son, Isaac. Will you come and place the idols of your consciousness into the fire—your consciousness of sin, of struggle? Place them into the fire, for this is the acceptable offering, the burnt offering that is placed upon the altar of the Lord.7
Will you not do this in commemoration of the one who taught me all that I know—the blessed, the most wonderful Counsellor, the Prince, the Bridegroom, the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit, the Teacher, the Protector of all?8
In the name of the one who has given me salvation, I say: Receive the love of my heart and the kiss of forgiveness which I plant upon your forehead as the sealing of the blessing of the third eye.
I AM with you all the way. Call to me in the hour of need and in the hour of trial and I will give you the magnet of my overcoming of all sin.
Amazing grace! how sweet the sound
That saved a soul like me!
I once was lost, but now am found
Was blind, but now I see.
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
Through many dangers, toils, and snares
I have already come;
’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home.
The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.
Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, beyond the veil
A life of joy and peace.
When we’ve been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we first begun.
