I AM the River of Life <1> flowing within you. I AM the
energy of God. I AM the release and the activating principle of
all that is above now manifest here below. I AM the release of
the fiery fire of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva.
I AM the Shakti of the Gods. I AM the mastery of the feminine
principle that you in your soul, rising and rising and rising,
might also be unto countless lifewaves Mother—Mother as
that which releases light. So is the shakti the feminine counterpart
of every ascended master. Each one of you fulfills that role,
being a director of energy.
When you are a chela of the ascended masters the development of
your own feminine potential determines how much you can be the
polarity of God, how much polarity of Saint Germain, El Morya,
Kuthumi or Lanto you can manifest here below. Can you expand the
sphere of your consciousness of Mother, of white-fire purity,
so as to be here below all that the ascended masters are Above?
This is the challenge of being Mother. This is the challenge of
being whole.
You do not want to manifest only a pea compared
to a giant causal body of a cosmic consciousness. When you stand
under the vine and fig tree <2> of the Great Divine Director
with hands upraised in the receptive mode of consciousness to
receive of his great liberating life force, will you limit that
release by a tiny thimble of consciousness that is an excuse for
a chalice? Or will you raise the crystal chalice, the cut glass
of many facets of attainment showing the bursting forth of light
as crystal, as crystal-fire mist and emerald and gems of the Mother's
Self-awareness? See then that you strive to keep the balance of
the worlds.
The dilemma of your planet in matter is that so little of the
energies of the Tree of Life <3> flow as the river of Mother.
Imagine millions of ascended beings focusing the masculine principle
of the Godhead with unending energy. Imagine then the energy crisis
that occurs in Mater because souls have not conceived of themselves
as Mother, because here in the West the term shakti is not understood.
The feminine role as the one who releases the energy of the masculine
ray is also not understood—the concept that the masculine
in matter is passive until the active element of the feminine
releases it.
It is just the reverse in Spirit. It is the masculine that is
the active and the feminine that is the passive. And so these
roles intertwine and they change as you ascend the scale of consciousness.
The roles are the weaving back and forth of the caduceus of the
Father-Mother God.
Each time you rise to a new chakra, a new level of consciousness,
these roles are balanced, these roles are interchanged. And so
within each individual there comes the flow of Alpha and Omega
and of the masculine and feminine principles, so that neither
man nor woman is incomplete but each one through this cosmic exchange
puts on a cosmic identity containing all in One. But then when
you expand to the entire creation, you see that all life that
is unascended is as Mater—feminine ray.
I speak to you today then out of the flame of Mother that is anchored
in matter. I speak out of the fiery core of the earth and out
of the fiery core of your own Mother chakra. I AM speaking then
from cosmic dimensions which God has sealed in this very plane.
And so you are hearing for the first time a dictation of the cosmic
consciousness of Mother that originates in the white-fire core
of matter.
This is that you might understand the permeation of matter with
the energies of Spirit, that you might know the energies of the
om mani padme hum. Reverence then to life here below is given
from the aum of Alpha to the hum of Omega. You find that life
flows and flows and flows: aum hum, aum hum, aum hum.
Now experience then from the very depths of being how God has
placed himself with you not alone in threefold flame but in the
chakra that is Mother. God has placed himself as a life force,
as an activating principle that is designed to balance, to release,
to energize Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Let all enter the path of initiation, the path of Mother, as Mother
adores the Buddha. Let all enter this path and perceive that the
putting on of the many faces of Eve is the adornment of self with
the many Madonnas who have graced the Earth. The identity of Mother
is in so many strains, so many cultures. You can see Mother in
all ways as the mirror of Self, the mirror of every culture, every
nation, every religion—each the unique face of Mother for
a peculiar people of light, of evolution, of karma and of dharma.
Out of the flame of Mother within you is the voice of the Ancient
of Days. <4>
Out of the flame of Mother is an ascension current.
Out of the flame of Mother is the balance
of worlds whereby mankind learn the paths of equilibrium, developing
in the outer only that which has been developed within.
The culture of the hidden man of the heart, <5> of the very
Christ Self that you are, is a culture that the soul puts on by
the path of initiation in the Mother. Putting on this culture
within, the soul takes its first steps in matter, learning to
crawl and to walk, to examine the myriad manifestations of Mother.
Point, counterpoint, let mothers and fathers of earth teach their
children first within, then without—the inner design, the
outer manifestation.
Can you not feel the rhythm of this creation and the rhythm of
this life and the soul responding to my words because the soul
has such a great need to go within in order to come without? Millions
and millions among mankind live without, on the periphery, on
the surface, without experiencing the tutoring of their souls,
the balancing of the elements. They become as dried reeds. They
become without flow or flowering of the chakras. They become mechanical,
functioning, then, according to the mechanization man.
Out of the flame of Mother I call these souls to the center. I
call souls of America, of Russia, of China, of every nation in
Europe and Asia and Africa; I call to the souls of the nations
of South America—all lands, all seas, all elements. I call
for balance in the four petals of the Mother's light. Come into
my arms and be aligned! Be aligned, be in balance. Know the comfort
and the bliss of the fiery cross of life flowing evenly—flowing
fire that becomes water, flowing water that becomes air, flowing
air that becomes earth, cycling and recycling.
You feel within your system now what it is like to truly be in
balance. The mind is restored to balance free from the entrapments.
The emotions are restored to balance in the Word of Christ, "Peace,
be still!" <6> And in the very center of the petals
of the white chakra I declare: I AM THAT I AM. <7>
I AM the will of the Lord and the law of his life! I AM releasing
spirals, spirals of God becoming God within you. Out of the flame
of Mother energies are encircling the earth, flowing to the chakras
of you who have prepared and of all souls of light who have prepared,
who have opened the windows to receive Mother, to give Father,
to give Father, to receive Mother—in and out, by coming
in, by going forth. Energy in balance is the need of the hour,
and the Mother comes to teach her children this balance.
Now enter your third eye. Let your concentration increase; let
your concentration increase. From the tiny emerald that I place
there, let it increase to a sphere of brilliant emerald fire.
Now meditate upon this emerald fire and know that the virgin consciousness
within you is now restored at the etheric plane.
Heretofore your Christ Self has held that balance of the vision
of the Virgin. Now there is a lowering from out the flame of Mother
in Matter of the virgin consciousness that will be released cycle
by cycle through the mental body, the emotional body and the physical
body. My angels have anchored now that very record of all that
you saw, all that you knew, all that you were in the beginning
in the core of creation.
This is a very powerful electrode. This is a very powerful force.
Do you know that my coming into this octave is that force that
creates tidal waves and cataclysm, and the coming of the judgment
and the sudden death and the passing from the screen of life of
individuals, and wars and rumors of wars? And so you see, the
prophecy of Jesus for the last days <8> was the prophecy
of the coming of Mother. It was a veiled prophecy. He did not
say, "When Mother comes, you will have pestilence and famine
and plague." If he had said this, who would have welcomed
Mother? Who welcomes disturbance? All move back into the comfortable
ways, yet all find that they cannot resist the oncoming light.
Mother in her coming seems destructive. But she is the shakti
of Shiva, and therefore her destroying action is the breaking
down of the walls of partition, the breaking down of all misuses
of her light that the soul might be free.
Understand then the perspective of the Mother. The Mother is concerned
only with the salvation of the souls of her children, not with
their mere mortal comfort. And therefore when she finally comes
after thousands of years, coming through the marketplaces she
overturns the moneychangers in the temples, <9> and much
more.
Individuals are stripped of their wares, their conceit and their
deceit, their mortal tyranny. Individuals are stripped of that
which is the manipulation of the innocence of the soul. Upheaval
then is for the direct goal that the bird might take flight and
enter the heart of God. To the Mother all else is dispensable.
It is Mother who taught her Son these words: "I came not
to send peace, but a sword." <10> First the sword,
then the sacred Word, then the cleaving asunder of the Real from
the unreal. And then the sword, and then peace.
First the sword and the action of the sword as the shakti of peace.
First the sword as a pillar of fire, as an energy that is at once
brutal and compassionate. The sword of the Mother is the surgeon's
knife, the Great Surgeon cutting away all that is hindering the
soul on the Path.
The Rumbling Sound of the Movement of Energy
Welcome then the bursting forth of this fire of Mother within
you as the bursting forth of the fire of Vesuvius, of Mauna Loa.
From the very heart of the earth suddenly there is the rumbling,
the rumbling sound. It is the sound of movement of energy in the
base chakra of the earth. And before the night is over, fire and
the lava—molten rock, elements rich, rich in the ore of
the Mother—burst forth at the surface of the chakras of
the earth. There is an inundation and there is life becoming life.
Mankind have had thousands of years to prepare for her coming.
Had they pursued self-mastery, the Mother's coming would be the
delicate feet upon the hillsides and in the meadows. Her coming
would be gentle, gentle as the crown of the twelve stars. <11>
But without preparation, the coming must be the upheaval.
We are speaking now at the very core of the reality of the meaning
of Mother. As the veils of maya are removed from your eyes and
as the veils of Mother are removed that you can see her face to
face, you find that her face is very familiar. In your soul you
know that you have seen that face, that smile and that sternness
day by day for thousands of years.
The reality of Mother then is the acceptance of disturbance and
rearrangement in your life as atoms and molecules are brought
into alignment for the maximum attainment of energy flow in the
chakras. Is it any small wonder that you have experienced such
opposition to this conference, such opposition to the celebration
of the bicentennial?
The Coming of Mother Inaugurates a New Cycle
The coming of Mother inaugurates a new cycle: the movement of
Mother energies in Matter. There must be some who are responsible,
who can be self-disciplined and not shrink or shriek in the presence
of Mother. All is challenged and nothing escapes her gaze. And
you dare not hide that something that is dear to you behind your
back, for Mother will take your hand and open it and reveal that
that which is hidden shall be revealed. <12>
Now that the pressure and the presence of Mother is truly in full
force and in manifestation—with the turning of the cycles
of America, with the turning of the cycles of the Aquarian age
in this very month of the celebration of Mother by the hierarchy
of Cancer—we trust, we hope, we pray earnestly that there
be some devotees who, though yet the boat be rocked, will not
be moved. Though there be a storm at sea, they will not capsize
the boat.
We cannot promise you freedom from adversity. We can only promise
you the protection of the defender of the Woman, the protection
of Archangel Michael <13> when you call it forth. Do not
expect then that suddenly all will be well with the world or that
peace will suddenly appear. There is a long, hard journey through
the night before the coming of peace. If you prepare yourselves
for the daily upheavals, then you will invoke enough light of
the energies of God to counteract these upheavals and you will
be found whole and one in the flame.
I Will Draw You into the Flame
Children of the Sun, it is understandable that some dare not enter
into the presence of Mother. They must remove themselves so many
meters, so many leagues, so many miles, for they cannot stand
the pressure of that light. But if there be some who will come,
who will stand with me, who will be part of this fire of the swinging
sword of Kali—if there be some, then I tell you I will absorb
you into myself that you might be in the white-fire core of Mother.
As I have come out of the flame, so I will draw you into the flame
so that by your courage to stand with the Virgin of the Earth
you will also have her mantle, the momentum of her attainment.
Is this not also justice? Those who receive the Mother in the
flame of the Mother ought to receive the reward of the flame of
the Mother. And so the white-fire core of the teaching center
and of the Church Universal and Triumphant has a very special
purpose. And the communicants who have the white cube, they use
that white cube to magnetize the flame of Mother and thereby draw
themselves into the One.
There is little survival for those who are halfway. And so you
see here, even here, an organization either of devotees or of
no one. All who come here and who remain become ardent chelas
of the Mother. And if they are not, they remove themselves far,
far away. For when they confess within their souls that they have
not the dedication, then they realize it is best to be gone, it
is best to be as far as you can go to be away from the cataclysm
that surrounds the intense fire of Mother.
With Total Surrender You Enter the Sphere of Mother
This is the key, then: total surrender. With total surrender you
enter the sphere of Mother. And I tell you, for I am here in the
sphere of Mother, that inside of this sphere there is such a wondrous
cosmos. To the outer mind, the discipline seems as confinement.
But as soon as that discipline is forged and won and you are transferred
into the center, you discover the Spirit-cosmos that is all inside
the fiery core of the base chakra of the one who has the mastery
of the Mother.
Within that fiery core then there is once again an absolute God-freedom
to create, to roam a starry cosmos, to be free in Mother. Mankind
do not understand, and some who are on the Path do not understand
that always and always and always when you give all to Mother,
Mother gives all to you. God is obedient to this law. He made
this law, and by this law he stands.
There is no purpose to having debris around the Mother, and therefore
devotees are we, devotees of the flame. None other can manifest
inside the Mother.
Here I AM in the center of the One. Will you come? Will you come?
Will you come and be free in me?
