LECTURE TRANSCRIPT:
You know, I think that the achievers in life are those whose hearts are tied with immense love to a person, a principle, a cause, an idea. Many of us gain that fervor of accomplishment through a very special kind of a love for a wife or husband or a child or someone who has meant a great deal to us as a teacher. And when we know and have that love, we continue to drive because it’s the very love that keeps us going in all adversity.
I must preface my remarks to you about Saint Germain’s embodiments with an expression of the overflowing love of my heart for this brother of light. I cannot even explain to you the great mystery of Saint Germain and my love for him and my sense of his presence. I can only tell you that I would do anything for that love of Saint Germain, for him personally, as I know him to represent God our Father‑-brook any crisis, face any situation, wrestle with any serpent, keep on with the appointed task. There is nothing that he would desire to have done that I would not find the strength to do by his love and by this commitment that I feel in my heart.
Some of you know, then, when I was leaving for college, when I prayed to God in my home and I said, “Is there anything you have placed here for me of which I have not availed myself, because I am going away and I am making my way in life?” And I heard God speak to me and tell me to go and pick up a certain book that had been on my mother’s shelf since I was very tiny. I knew the book was there, but I never picked it up.
I got the book, opened it up, after nestling down in a, in an old leather chair in the library. And I opened to the face of Saint Germain which you see on this altar‑-the eternal friend, the one I had always known. I recognized him, leaped from the chair, ran to my mother and said, “Mother, do you know Saint Germain?” And she said, “Yes, I know him.” [laughter] And I said, “Why didn’t you ever tell me about him?” She said, “I wanted you to discover him for yourself.” Well, it took eighteen years, but at least it wasn’t any longer than eighteen years. [laughter]
In any case, from that moment I pledged my life to find him and to find out what I must do for him. It was like the memory: this is the one that I saw before I took embodiment. This is the one who explained to me what I must do. And what must I do? Deliver the Everlasting Gospel, the teachings of the angel of the seventh ray. Deliver his understanding, his interpretation of God to man‑-religion, that which binds us to God. Give the true teachings of Jesus Christ and set these before people, that they might choose also to be free.
So I would like to tell you that in these embodiments that I am going to read to you about, Saint Germain exhibits the qualities and the virtues that are the very principles that are the driving factors in our life and the cause for our love for him. We know the virtues belong to God, but he made them his own as we can make them our own. As Mark Prophet said, “You can become one with God. You can become God in manifestation. It’s your choice.”
By studying the embodiments of the masters, we discover how they exercised free will, we discover the path of their discipleship, how they became who they are, who they are today‑-immortal, God‑free beings. And we realize that by doing the same and walking in their footsteps, we also can.
I’ll give you the list of his embodiments, and then I’ll fill in some of the details, if you’d like to take these notes.
Some of you may not like to think that you were alive and well 70,000 years ago [laughter] or a million years ago. The bigger the numbers get, somehow the more outrageous it seems to the human mind that one has had to endure so long in this state. The reality is, there is no time and space.
You are the creation of God and his handiwork, and you have coexisted with him since the hour of your creation, since the hour you were endowed with a divine spark. You have worn many bodies, been in many places, many guises, you’ve had many, many experiences, and you are living in an era today when all of those experiences, whether constructive or not, are becoming your teacher. You are learning from your own records and the records of others, and you stand at a moment in cosmic cycles to make the choice to transcend and to slough off this mortal coil and enter in to a path of immortality.
So, Saint Germain ruled a civilization 70,000 years ago in the area where the Sahara desert is now.
He was a priest of the sacred fire in the temple of Lord Zadkiel more recently in his embodiment in Atlantis‑-many embodiments on Atlantis. He left Atlantis and carried the flame of freedom to what is now the European continent, enshrined it there under the direction of his teacher.
He was Samuel the prophet from 1050 to 1010 B.C.; Joseph, the father of Jesus; Saint Alban of England in the third century; Proclus, the Greek philosopher; Merlin at the court of Arthur; Roger Bacon, 1214 to 1292; Christopher Columbus, 1451 to 1506; Francis Bacon, 1561 to 1684; and was known and seen as le Comte de Saint Germain, “the Wonderman of Europe,” during the period of 710 to 1822.
Seventy thousand years ago, in that golden‑age civilization where the Sahara now is, Saint Germain was the ruler of a prosperous golden‑age civilization. He was known as the “Master of the Ancient Wisdom.” In the closing hours of that civilization, he withdrew to the golden etheric city, for the people forgot their source, became enmeshed in the senses, followed dark leaders who came to take them over.
The empire declined without his sponsorship and was eventually destroyed by cataclysm‑-as is always the fate when mankind take their attention from the God Source and begin to consider other things, persons, or conditions as their gods. They enter into superstition; they now begin to manipulate forces instead of being the instruments of cosmic forces. You can see the rise and decline of civilizations by the level of understanding and attunement of the people with the universal laws of harmony.
As the prophet Samuel, he was the son of Elkanah and Hannah‑-she was a prophetess. He spent his childhood in the tabernacle of Shiloh ministering unto the LORD. He received his first prophetic call at the age of twelve, the same age when Jesus was called to the temple. He was established as the prophet of the LORD in early manhood, and he was the last of the Old Testament judges. He anointed Saul when the people demanded a king, and then he anointed David after Saul’s disobedience.
The important thing about the embodiment of Saint Germain as Samuel is that we see him as the light and the direction of God in the heart of the twelve tribes. He was the driving force and the presence of God in their midst.
We understand that the United States of America is intended to be the place of the regathering of that seed of Abraham, the seed of Sanat Kumara reincarnated today. We realize that this seed embodies in all nations, all peoples, all religions, all races. The seed has come down, it was scattered abroad, has been across the face of the earth in many nations, returns not as a flesh‑and‑blood lineal descent of the Hebrews but, in fact, as the reincarnating ones, the lightbearers of every nation.
Now we can understand how the prophet Samuel, himself evolving and finally making his ascension after his final embodiment as Francis Bacon, returns then to provide the impetus, the light, and the God‑direction for the very same people in whose midst he stood as the prophet Samuel.
Many people who love s, Saint Germain remember being near him in these various lifetimes, have glimpses of the experience. And therefore, the love for the master is an ongoing experience that transcends the limitations of one life. Lifetime after lifetime we return to find Saint Germain because he we know that he holds the key to our own mastery of our own souls. He is our teacher. Our love for him knows no bounds.
According to the records we have, Samuel lived to the age of fifty‑two, his mission accomplished. God anointed him to be Joseph, the protector of Jesus and Mary. He was most likely born in Bethlehem, the son of Heli of the house of David. He was considered a man of honor. According to apocryphal writings, he was chosen to be the husband of Mary when the LORD’s dove perched upon his rod, fulfilling the prophecy of Isaiah 11:1 and 2.
He was visited by an angel; was first told to flee with Mary and, and the infant Jesus to Egypt, then later to return to Israel. He gave training to Jesus in the excellence of his Christhood through the work of his hands as a carpenter. He’s believed to have passed on before the miracle of Cana, Jesus’ first miracle. He was there when we was needed, and he went on when his mission was fulfilled.
The Bible traces the lineage of Jesus from the house of David through Joseph, not Mary. In his time, everyone accepted that Jesus was the son of Joseph. This does not deny the virgin birth, but it puts into perspective the fact that God uses us as his instruments, not on the basis of a flesh‑and‑blood purity but on the basis of the heart.
The angel of the LORD said to Mary that the Spirit of the LORD would come upon her and that she would conceive by that Spirit. It is conceivable and, in fact, in the natural order of things that Joseph should be the instrument of the fatherhood of Jesus. And this would not deny that God was his father nor that God was his mother.
We understand the holy office of father and mother, and we understand that the denial of holy offices, the denial of embodied human beings being the instrument of God, contributes to a sense of sin, worthlessness, and guilt. If we are not worthy to be instruments, to be co‑creators with God, then it denies the whole law of our being and our spiritual evolution. There is great joy and pride in being the father and mother of a child and understanding that responsibility can only be fulfilled through our oneness with God.
I leave you to your own meditation concerning Joseph and Mary, but I also ask you to consider that the sanctity of your life is engaged when you acknowledge yourself the instrument of God in everything that you do. And if you aren’t his instrument, well, then your only other choice is to be an animal and do what animals do or do what humans do.
Jesus demonstrated his divinity within his humanity. And, of course, this is explained by the church that he had one parent human, one parent divine. But I think both parents were divine and thoroughly the messengers of God to be instruments to be his parents.
But there is a consistent denial that the individual who appears imperfect, who wears a body of flesh and blood can be holy. There’s a denial that we can be holy and still make mistakes. Well, we can make mistakes and still live in the holiness of God. God can use us, not because we’re humanly perfect but because he decides to use us.
There’s no such thing as human perfection. If you’ve ever tried to be humanly perfect, you’ll wind up in the nuthouse. [laughter] You’re going to make a mistake five minutes from now and the whole experiment will be over with. [laughter and applause]
God is perfect! [applause] God is perfect and he can use you as his instrument. The more like God you become, the better the instrument.
It’s not wrong to seek perfection. Jesus said, Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.[1] But what is perfection? It’s not a mechanical rigidity of dos and don’ts, and if we do all the right things we’ll be saints and if we do all the wrong things we’ll be sinners. Perfection is the quality of the heart, the tremendous quality of the heart. Jesus taught that in the healing, casting out of the devils of Mary Magdalene.
Who were the evil ones? He was inscribing in the sand. He was showing all of her accusers all of the karma of their past lives and all of what they had done. How could they then stand and accuse? Even in their present life they had committed sins, as we all have.
Our perfection is in God, and we are grateful that we are not condemned to eternal damnation by the sins of the flesh. Nor do we, by that logic, indulge ourselves in further sins of the flesh when we know something that we are doing is limiting God’s expression through us.
That’s how you decide on your own moral code. Is what I am doing denying the God‑good in anyone else? Are my acts destroying someone else’s Christhood? Is what I am doing depriving anyone else of their full freedom? The Ten Commandments are an excellent measure. But, of course, there is more, much more, if we are to fulfill God’s word.
So when you think about Saint Germain in the role of Joseph and you suddenly realize his instrumentation, his agency, not merely in an, in an initial conception but throughout the period of the protection of Jesus, you realize that he would have have to have been a very, very special soul for God to entrust in his care the life of Mary and Jesus. And that is where we begin to know and understand the tremendous mastery of this lifestream in the person of Joseph. [interruption 5 sec.]
We find him in the third century as Saint Alban. He was a pagan born in England. He harbored a fugitive Christian priest and was converted by him. He was scourged and sentenced to death when discovered to be protecting the priest.
Multitudes gathered to witness his execution. The bridge was too narrow for the people to cross over, so Alban prayed and the river parted. The executioner was converted [laughter], and he also was beheaded with Alban. [laughter] Saint Alban was the first martyr in Britain.
Now this is an amazing thing about studying past embodiments, and even of the masters. If Saint Germain was a great master 70,000 years ago, how come he was born pagan and had to be converted? Well, that’s the great drama of life. The great drama of the life that we are given is that we come to outplay a role on the stage of life, to make choices, and so that God can be witnessed and glorified.
The great contrast of the pagan being converted by the priest and himself receiving the powers of heaven‑-it leaves a stunning example in the minds of people, and they can tie into the virtue of a Saint Alban.
But the other thing we realize is that none of us remembers all the details of our past lives. You may have been very accomplished in science on Atlantis, and you may not be a scientist today because you have not brought forth that particular level out of your causal body.
A human life is finite. Only a portion of the inner life can be expressed in one embodiment. That’s why we have so many embodiments‑-because we have so many things to do, so much karma to balance, and to gain the balance of godly virtues. So we need many lifetimes and many experiences. What is important is the quality of the soul, and that soul had quality. And the amazing thing is his instrumentation in this miracle.
Proclus, who lived 410 to 485 A.D., was a Neoplatonic philosopher. He was one of the greatest intellects in the history of philosophy. He was born in Constantinople of patrician parents. He was educated at Xanthus, Alexandria, and the Platonic Academy. He authored voluminous works of philosophy, distinguished himself as an astronomer and grammarian, and he was an initiate of the mystery cults, the ancient mysteries. He believed at that time that he had lived before as a Neo‑Pythagorean philosopher. He was head of the Platonic Academy until his death in 485 A.D.
Next, we come to the embodiment of Merlin in the fifth century. Legend says he was born of a Druid priest and a Christian virgin, having thereby superhuman powers. We know that superhuman powers are those that are earned by devotion to God but also transmitted through parents who are vessels of God’s light.
He played an integral role in King Arthur’s birth and upbringing. He arranged for the miraculous sword in the stone to prove Arthur’s rightful heirship. It is said‑-mind you, it is said‑-that he moved Stonehenge from Ireland to Salisbury Plain in England‑-actually moved them, by levitation or whatever.
He advised Uther to construct the Round Table, was Arthur’s counselor, made predictions of things that would happen in the court and pres, and predictions about his own demise and his own succumbing to the wiles of Lady Vivien. He was appointed by Arthur to choose the knights of the Round Table, and his prophecies were widely accepted in Britain and France into the seventeenth century. He was condemned by the Church.
Twelve fourteen, he was born Roger Bacon, English philosopher, experimental scientist. He studied the arts at Oxford in Paris. He became a Franciscan monk. He pursued exhaustive investigation of alchemy, optics, mathematics, astronomy, and languages between 1247 and ’57. He compiled a complete science encyclopedia. He was imprisoned for suspected novelties in his teaching. [laughter] He won the title “Doctor Mirabilis” (Teacher of Wonders), and he died in 1294.
Saint Germain has always dared to be different. And woe to the world if it does not follow his example and we should all become so mediocre as to be indistinguishable from one another.
He was Christopher Cumblis, ch, Christopher Columbus. His place of birth is uncertain and the date also, though it’s thought to be 1451. Fourteen cities claim to be his birthplace. [laughter] He began his career as a seaman at age fourteen. He was deeply devoted to Jesus. He believed that his divine mission was the recovery of Jerusalem. He was said to be an adept in poetical languages of secret societies. He believed he was called to explore the unknown Atlantic. He made four voyages to the New World between 1492 and 1505. He suffered failing heath during the final voyage and died May 20, 1506.
In past conferences, I’ve given great details of that embodiment of Christopher Columbus. It was a very exciting life and he had a profoundly spiritual nature, a prophetic nature. He saw the vision of that New Jerusalem; he saw it in the New World. And then he went on as Francis Bacon to develop that concept, 1561 to 1626.
As you know, intrigue has surrounded his true parentage and Bacon’s identity as the son of Elizabeth I. He received a royal education, studied cipher codes, authored the Shakespearean plays, incorporating hidden ciphers of secret, mystical societies. He’s known as the father of inductive science. He was appointed Lord Chancellor of England. He was stripped of the office through a political conspiracy, and he died Easter Sunday, 1626. Quote, “Some say he attended his own mock funeral.” [laughter]
The Count Saint Germain was believed to be the son of pri, of the Prince of Rakoczy of Hungary. He became known as “the Wonderman of Europe,” was seen for several centuries, always appearing as a youth. He was a skilled alchemist, diplomat, musician, linguist, artist, and described as Voltaire, by Voltaire as “a man who never dies.” He attempted unsuccessfully to establish the United States of Europe. He worked behind the scenes to establish the United States during the American Revolution, and reportedly died in 1784, but was seen again after that date.
I’d just like to read you a, a few paragraphs on Bacon. [pause 17 sec. Messenger reads from The Secret History of Francis Bacon by Alfred Dodd, pp. 11‑13.]
Francis Bacon is the greatest genius and one of the most lovable men that the world has ever seen.
Pope said: “Lord Bacon is the greatest genius that either England or perhaps any other country ever produced.” Lord Macaulay admitted that “he had the most exquisitely constructed intellect that has ever been bestowed on any of the children of men.” Ben Jonson declared that “he stands as the mark and acme of our language. It is he that hath filled up all numbers,” all forms of versification.
“He was retiring, nervous, sensitive, unconventional, and very modest,” said Spedding; “a man most sweet in his conversation and ways.” “All who were great and good loved him. A poet, but concealed, he was deeply religious, for he was conversant with God and able to render a reason for the hope which was in him.”
He was a great lawyer. The Great Code Napoleon is based on his digest of law. A great statesman, he prevented the depopulation of England. A founder of new states, the Virginias and the Carolinas, thus making the New World English instead of Spanish. A great philosopher, for he acted as a bell-ringer to all the sciences and taught men to experiment for the good of humanity.
To comparatively few is it known that he is also the greatest dramatist and poet of all time; that is, that he is the immortal bard “Shake-speare,” and that he used the word as a pen-name, taking it from the Goddess Pallas Athene, the Shaker of the Spear of Knowledge at the Serpent of Ignorance.
No one has been more maligned and abused than Francis Bacon. The lie against his name has sunk deep into the souls of men.
Writing as one who would not wantonly mislead anyone, as one who has closely examined all available documents, as one familiar with the various biographies pro and con, as a juror who actually entered the box severely prejudiced against him, I unhesitantly declare that Francis Bacon not only leaves the dock without a stain on his character, but that his public actions give him rank with those immortal souls who prefer to suffer martyrdom rather than be false to the ideals they espoused.
His character and life place him with martyrs like Socrates. He committed hari‑kiri, socially and politically, at the bidding of his master King James to save him and his favorite Buckingham from a possible constitutional conflict with the Commons. He was the victim of a plot as diabolical as ever stained the pages of history.
An examination of the bed-rock documents has convinced me, however, that Francis Bacon’s greatest “crime” was his virtue in a corrupt era, not his alleged sins.
The life of Francis Bacon was something I delivered at a, an S.U. suminar, seminar, and the tapes of that are in the album The Golden Age Prince. It’s a very, very interesting story of his childhood and his great persecution. [interruption 1 sec.] And, of course, he was denied by his mother, denied the throne of England, and a, it’s something that you should all know about and read.
I was told by someone attending this conference that to celebrate the Fourth of July, the Francis Bacon Society in London, England, was playing my lecture, oh, and they’d sent out notices for their members to attend. [applause]
INVOCATION:
Our heavenly Father, we are grateful to gather in this tent with thy people on earth. We are grateful to offer our sacrifice in the wilderness as was done of old. And we understand that the most important sacrifice we can make is to surrender those states of mind and heart that are not acceptable unto thee, that will not provide the acceptable offering‑-not the acceptable offering of Abel but the unacceptable offering of Cain.
We therefore surrender our envy, our jealousy, our pride and ambition, and we demand that these momentums of consciousness now still in our auras as vibration be cast into the violet flame, the all‑consuming power of the Holy Ghost, who shall take now the cause, effect, record, and memory of our envy and jealousy toward any part of life which we have ever manifested in all previous embodiments
and incarnations. We ask that the holy angels of the violet flame and all saints who serve the violet flame shall come to us in this hour and shall take from us those records, as much as the Great Law will allow, leaving only that which is necessary for our own self-mastery and edification.
Our Father, we call upon the law of forgiveness for any consciousness of envy or jealousy we have ever felt toward any part of life, and especially which has then triggered actions of unkindness or hatred.
Beloved Father, beloved Son, beloved Holy Spirit, beloved Mother, come into these temples now. Be the all‑consuming sacred fire. Let the violet flame through, flow through our hearts, through the crown chakra, the third eye, the throat, the solar plexus, seat of the soul and base of the spine! Blaze the light through! Blaze the light through! Blaze the light through!
We call upon the law of forgiveness and we also forgive all others who have ever wronged us. And in my Christ Spirit of forgiveness, we now invoke the violet flame for the freedom of our soul, the freedom of our God in this temple, and the freedom of all life toward whom we have directed any damaging thoughts or feelings or acts.
In the name of the Holy Spirit, we pray.
[Decree 70.11, “I AM the Violet Flame,” given 7x.]
Now you have heard me, in the giving of this decree, using it in a number of different ways according to the seven rays of God. This is your matrix. You pour in to the decree the fire of your heart, your will, your love, your devotion to God, your belief in the ability of the mantra to deliver your soul.
Now when we say with great power and determination in the beginning of our decree, which you should always do the first time, you are agreeing with the power of the I AM. Wherever you see the name I AM, it means “God in me is.” God in me is the violet flame in action in me now. God in me is the violet flame to light alone I bow. Thou shalt have no other gods before me. You bow only to, to the light, for the light is God.
“I AM the violet flame.” God in me is the violet flame. “In mighty cosmic power.” This describes the action of the violet flame with which I desire by my free will to qualify that flame. The violet flame is infinite. It has many qualities: freedom, justice, mercy, transmutation, alchemy, creativity in vast directions. And so, you take the name of God, you qualify the violet flame to perform a certain work by focusing the necessary ingredient to that work.
In the course of living we have many needs, and we need God’s flame to help us perform our tasks. The power of the name “I AM” gives you the freedom to qualify his flames, his consciousness, with a specific need of the hour. When people say, “Archangel Michael, help me!” it is an act of free will that is sending the signal to the archangel: “Qualify the light you send me with help. I need help.” You say, “Almighty God, give me food; I’m hungry.” God brought to the prophet in the wilderness food and manna to the children of Israel.
Whatever you call for in the name I AM, God’s light coalesces in that form. It is not a miracle that when you ask for bread God gives you bread. It is a scientific law of the science of the spoken Word. Ask, and you will receive. Asking, then, according to Isaiah, becomes the command: “I AM God’s sacred power freeing everyone.”
A decree, then, is an act of creation. It is a vow. It is a commitment. It is an expression of our faith. It is the understanding of the science of the Word. A vast knowledge that you glean from the masters’ teachings is the backdrop in your mind when you start to decree.
When you begin slowly and with power, you are setting the matrix. When it is set, then you pour into it more of the same. That is when we accelerate the decree, we say it more quickly, the pitch goes up. You have the quality in your voice by the pitch up or down to focalize light in the various octaves of your being. That’s what music is for. When you, when you listen to classical music, it is becoming the instrument of the light descending to your chakras to the various planes of your being.
So you can learn to use the voice. Many people use their voices to manipulate and enslave life just by the vibration of intimidation or condemnation or sarcasm. All those are uses of the spoken Word in manipulation and in misqualification of energy. If you put out intimidation it’s going to come back to you. You’re the creator. It’s the law of the boomerang‑-it goes out so far and comes right back and one day you wake up and you may have a problem in your life of some kind. And then you need to open your book, call on the law of forgiveness.
You may not know the source of the problem. You ask to be enlightened as to how you may have used, misused God’s energy in this or a previous life; ask that the record be cast into the flame and the cause and core of the problem you’re facing today be removed and put into the violet flame. You call for the blessing of all you have ever wronged and all who have ever wronged you, and you begin the action of the Holy Spirit, the Destroyer, to break down the barriers that are separating mankind and brother from, from brother.
Moses said, “Our God is a consuming fire.” I believe him because I have witnessed God as a consuming fire. You ought to contemplate those words; ask God to prove to you what is his sacred fire and how does it consume. And in the process of contemplating, you may choose to experiment with these decrees.
Now we’re going to take the violet flame in another action. We’re going to visuale, we’re going to visualize ourselves in a violet‑flame sea‑-a sea of violet flame. Imagine all of the oceans and seas of the world violet flame‑-transmuting pollution, burdens upon life, and even the consciousness of mankind that qualifies the waters. Visualize the Heart of the Inner Retreat as a violet‑flame sea, a sea of violet fire. See yourself being bathed and saturated, cleansed, freed, liberated from any and every burden that is in your life.
God can solve your problem. You need to release it into his violet flame and let go and let him come into your temple and solve your problem. Some of you worry too much or you’re too ambitious. You try to do everything for yourself instead of realizing the Father worketh hitherto, and I work.
We’re all in a partnership. There’s things that we have to do and we, there are things that God will then do. And if you get your job confused with God’s job and you’re trying to do his job, you get nowhere.
You sow the seed, God gives the increase. We are laborers; we are handmaids of the LORD. We let ourselves be instruments. We place ourselves in position and God plays his, his song, his music. He does what he wants to do through us if we let him. So if you try to do everything yourself, you know, you make a god of yourself. And a lot of people who are very clever think they can do everything, and so they don’t need God. So they don’t pursue him. Until one day they’re high and dry and they have a calamity they can’t deal with. And it’s very crushing because the ego or the intellect that they have leaned upon for centuries suddenly fails them. It’s not great enough to the task.
I know very well that my ego or intellect is not sufficient to the task of stopping nuclear war or even standing up and talking to you. So I know that I have to be connected to God and he’ll do the work, and I watch God do the work. I actually watch him use my instrument. And you need to watch him, too, and get rid of your anxiety about what’s going to happen to you next.
If you’re doing the right thing and you have a right hard, a right heart and you’re working hard, you’re bettering yourself, you’re educating yourself, you’re pursuing helping other people through your job or profession, you’re doing the best you know how‑-that’s fine. God will use you wherever you are and he will teach you how to come up higher every day. But when you carry the grudges, you carry the envies, you carry the resentments, you carry the fear, you carry the anxiety, you put up so many barriers that you cannot maintain a working relationship with your I AM Presence.
Now this violet‑flame sea, we’re going to sing the song of the violet‑flame sing, sea to these words, and you’re going feel yourself floating in that sea and free, absolutely free from every care that you thought you had before you came into this room.
[Song 799, “I AM the Violet Flame,” sung 3x.]
Now we have called to the violet flame; we have surrendered to the violet flame the unacceptable offering of envy and jealousy. As we discover the violet flame, as some saints have found in prayer that they were surrounded by a violet light, who knew nothing of this teaching‑-once you go to the heart of the flame you realize that the flame itself has a consciousness because God is in the flame. God is the flame; he is the creator of the flame.
Now you discover that some sons of God throughout the vast aeons of the spiritual evolution of life in this cosmos have elected by free will to embody the consciousness of the violet flame. As students in universal life, these sons of God have said, “I will become an expert on the violet flame. I will master its uses. I will become the living embodiment of God’s consciousness in and as the violet flame.”
Now those of us who are on the path of that evolution, students of the masters that have attained before us‑-when we decide that we need more expertise in the use of the violet flame and all it can do for us; when we realize we have a great need to embody mercy in our lives because God shows us we need to be more merciful or more kind or more just, or we need to have the courage to be free, we need the violet flame. And we realize that we go to the teacher who has excelled on that flame because we want to study with him, just as we would study if we were learning to become a mechanic or a pianist, a doctor, or whatever avocation of our life.
In pursuing the violet flame with all of our hearts, we find that the veils part and we see the face of our beloved master, Saint Germain, who is the acclaimed and the one‑-the hierarch of the Aquarian age, which is the age of the seventh ray and the seventh ray is the violet flame. We realize that he has prepared himself for aeons to be the one to hold that flame for us and all humanity that we might follow him into the next dispensation of these two thousand years.
When we sing to Saint Germain, when we love him, when we call upon him to transfer to us his momentum of light, we are acknowledging him as he desires to be acknowledged: “Saint Germain, holy brother.” We do not worship him. We do not consider that he or any other ascended master is God, but we know that he has a reservoir of such attainment and light that if we study with him, if we serve him, he will transfer to us more and more of that light as we show ourselves responsible to bear it in honor and not misuse it.
Remember this. It is one thing to love Saint Germain; it is another thing to obey his commandments. As Jesus said, If you love me, obey my commandments. When we fulfill the law of the seventh ray of our Christhood on that ray, we will be in harmony with Saint Germain. And when he sees we are responsible, he will give us more power, wisdom, and love, more light, because he wants us to use it to bless life.
In the understanding of the network of the body of God and the masters as points of God’s expression, we sing to them in a devotion that is not worship but is a profound love because we desire to be like them, and we know they have the light of God that we are earning and putting on.
When you are one with your master or your teacher, you find that he works through you. God works through us always through representatives. So when you say, “I am the instrument of God,” on a certain day you might be the instrument of God in Saint Germain, and Saint Germain may be the one working through you and speaking through you.
We are going to sing, then, with great love to our teacher the “I Love You Waltz to Saint Germain.” It’s number 237.
In preparation for singing this song, I think we should give the “I AM the Light of the Heart,” mantra. “I AM the Light of the Heart,” by Saint Germain.
Together.
*I AM the light of the heart
Shining in the darkness of being
And changing all into the golden treasury Of the mind of Christ.
I AM projecting my love
Out into the world
To erase all errors
And to break down all barriers.
I AM the power of Infinite Love,
Amplifying Itself
Until It is victorious,
World without end! (*9x)
[Song 237, “I Love You Waltz to Saint Germain,” sung 7x.]
Hail, Saint Germain!
Hail, Saint Germain!
Hail, Saint Germain!
Hail, Saint Germain.
END
Who Is Saint Germain?
Saint Germain is our immortal friend and brother. As the Chohan of the Seventh Ray and Hierarch of the Aquarian Age, he is leading the people of earth into a new era of freedom and enlightenment.
At the time of Atlantis, Saint Germain served as a high priest and a master of invocation at the Temple of Purification.
Through invocations and his boundless love for the flame of Life, Saint Germain sustained a pillar of fire, a veritable fountain of the violet flame, which magnetized people from near and far who came to be set free from binding conditions that afflicted their body, soul and mind.
These devotees achieved physical and spiritual healing through the offering of invocations and the practice of seventh-ray rituals to the sacred fire.
In the book Prayer and Meditation by Jesus and Kuthumi Elizabeth Clare Prophet writes in the chapter titled “Who is Saint Germain?”:
The ascended master Saint Germain is the sponsor of America and the very living Spirit of freedom to every soul. Just as Jesus stood as the open door to the attainment of the christ consciousness in the two-thousand-year Christian/Piscean era, so Saint Germain comes today hand-in-hand with the Prince of Peace as the ascended master of the Aquarian age.
He ordained us, messengers of the Great White Brotherhood, in order that the true teaching of Jesus Christ might be brought to our remembrance, as he promised, by the Holy Spirit who comes in the person of the ascended masters speaking the word of the lord through the messenger.
The understanding of your opportunity to know the self as christ is the true science of religion which Jesus taught to those with “ears to hear” and which Saint Germain now declares to all through “his servants, the prophets.”
Saint Germain comes forth in this “time of trouble” which marks the moment of the turning of cycles from Pisces to Aquarius. His is the consciousness of freedom, the fiery baptism of the Holy Spirit christening a new race, a new life-wave, a new age of self-discovery, and the “new world” America.
America was founded by the brotherhood on the matrix of the original thirteen of Jesus Christ and his apostles. it is a country where freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and freedom to assemble are meant to provide the foundation for the attainment of the collective Christ consciousness. It is destined to be a community of the Holy Spirit, a forum where the greatest souls of all ages will be “born again” with the incoming avatars of Aquarius to produce a living archetype of freedom. By the unseen hand and the very specific guidance of the ascended masters, America—the heart, the mind, the soul of a world—was born.
You can read more about Saint Germain’s sponsorship of the USA in the section called “Mystical Origins of the United States of America,” in the book Saint Germain On Alchemy.
In this video, at an event in Australia, Mrs Prophet tells of her first encounter with Saint Germain and how the violet flame changed her life. The violet flame has some amazing properties. We hear Mrs Prophet’s testimony of how she has used the violet flame to transmute negative karma, starting with this life and going back into previous lives.
Are You a Keeper of the Flame of Life
Without Knowing It?
What is the Keepers of the Flame Fraternity?
The Keepers of the Flame Fraternity was founded in 1961 by Saint Germain as an organization of ascended masters and their chelas who vow to keep the flame of Life on earth and support the activities of the Great White Brotherhood in the establishment of their Community and Mystery School and in the dissemination of their teachings. Keepers of the Flame receive graded lessons in cosmic law dictated by the ascended masters to their messengers Mark and Elizabeth Prophet.
Purposes
El Morya speaks of the purposes of the fraternity:
In January 1961 I authorized the formation of the Keepers of the Flame Fraternity to be formed of a circle of devotees within The Summit Lighthouse who would give supreme allegiance to the flame of Life and to the Knight Commander, Saint Germain. I invited all who would pledge their support to this hierarch of the Aquarian age to participate in a worldwide endeavor to draw into the flame of the Holy Spirit sons and daughters of God who would come forward to claim their inheritance as joint heirs of the Christ consciousness….
To those who would give their support shoulder to shoulder to the Ascended Masters and to our Messengers Mark and Elizabeth Prophet for the promulgation of authentic teaching delivered unto them by the hierarchy, a special invitation was extended by the Knight Commander and me to affirm their sponsorship and their commitment by joining this outer fraternity of the Great White Brotherhood….
Those who responded are those who understood from deep within the soul the need to reconsecrate that flame through daily invocations and decrees made in the name of the I AM Presence and the Christed Self of all mankind—those who were eager to pursue the alchemy of the Spirit and to work directly with Saint Germain to precipitate the foundations of the golden age.
Saint Germain A Champion of Freedom
Morya speaks for the sealing of the fires of freedom in the will of God!
I AM the champion of Saint Germain! I AM the champion of freedom! And I come with a momentum of the will of God and of all who combine and serve in the ray of blue and of heaven’s will in order to ratify all that has been given by the Knight Commander.
I stand before you to pledge anew my light and the diamond of my light to Saint Germain, our Commander of Freedom!
“Let the Fiat of the Lord Be with Me!”
Legions of Aquarius Invade Planet Earth
I AM Saint Germain, Knight Commander of the Keepers of the Flame Fraternity! I call you, my Keepers of the Flame, to give accounting before God this day that you might rise in full dominion of yourself, your household, your city and planet.
Onward unto the victory of Aquarius! Hosts of the Lord, march! We have come and we are here to stay! [54-second standing ovation]
