The thrust of man’s desire for liberty has its origin in the very sun-center of the universe. Man was conceived in the expansive flame of liberty from God’s own heart. This reality, dimmed now by intruding factors, remains the goal of the wise and the sincere….The liberty of oneness has been lost to the multifaceted sense of separation and thus, beneath his own fig tree and attached to his own vine, man goes his separate and several ways.
No specific good would occur in the community of being by forcing the separated segments of the Universal into an unwilling alliance; for there the liberty of oneness would be ignored and the pull of the senses, like snorting wild steeds, would create its tides of restless energy to pull man away from the balance of true being. Only the pull of the sun-center of universal reality, only the recognition by mankind en masse of the great laws governing cosmos and the spread of understanding about cosmos can develop within the unfolding identity of the individual a sense of the harmony of universal liberty.
The masters of wisdom in their great outreach in every age and at the beginning of this century have not neglected to inform mankind about the reality of the Brotherhood. The cloak of religion, which has smothered rather than swaddled mankind’s beginnings in truth, has masked the face of creative expansion, set brother against brother, absorbed mankind’s energies in fruitless struggle, and weakened the plan of the Brotherhood for the unity of this age….those who are wise as serpents but harmless as doves understand that liberty is often self-denied by those who have great spiritual attainment.
The meaning of the phrase “spiritual wickedness in high places” (Eph. 6:12) is high spiritual development without assimilation of the divine character. This brittleness of the spirit is a disease which threatens the most advanced disciples; its cure is that humility of heart which retains its hunger for the Spirit of the Lord which is the Spirit of Liberty. The Spirit of the Lord that is the Spirit of Liberty is also the Spirit of cosmic unity that places the cosmic good of all above the aggrandizement of self.
It is a strange thing, blessed ones, but from time to time even some of our advanced chelas are caught in delusion’s net singing their own praises and accomplishments, whereas the law clearly states that the Lord is the rewarder of them who diligently seek Him. If men would only grasp this principle and rest in the blessed assurance that God does reward well doing even as His laws bring full circle the reward for iniquity, they would not feel the need to "blow the trumpet" as you say in honor of themselves and they would be more hesitant before speaking the sharp word of criticism of another. If the Spirit of Liberty is to be honored, it must be honored not only by the man of low degree who rejoices in the hope of his exaltation but also by those older sheep of the Lord’s flock whose hoary heads of wisdom are crowned not in order to bring personal adulation but to focalize spiritual offices of great responsibility....The time has come when we shall muster in all who would make their calling and election sure on behalf of the Brotherhood the determination to give their all to the cause of liberty. The world welters in turmoil, confusion is apparent; yet we dwell not in the sense of this unrighteousness, for we hold up the crown of understanding and the Spirit of Liberty to the eyes of men. More precious than rubies and diamonds or the treasures of the world is the Spirit of Liberty. By this Spirit great nations have arisen, monumental scientific discoveries have been made, and prophetic revelations have been released….
The business of living is a serious business, but it can be indulged with a steadied merriment and a bubbling joy. The mists that have clouded the minds of men must be dispersed. The sun of hope must rise as many hands unite to pluck the harmonic strings of genuine brotherhood. -Goddess of Liberty: Pearls of Wisdom 11:26

Jesus said long ago "They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick." The sickness of the nations must be healed, the shield of righteousness must be used, the sword of the Spirit must be employed, and every magnificent action that man can take must be taken for the preservation of right values. Proper education of the masses must be accelerated and the protection of freedom must be carried on to the fullest extent of the law. Armageddon is at hand. The forces of destruction with their godless philosophy, and the sweet spiritual powers of the world to come are locked in a deadly embrace.
It is never a question of outcome insofar as the power of right is concerned; but the battle can be lost in the realm of the individual--in the militant and vicious individual who in the name of social justice can excuse a conduct that tarnishes the image of justice and produces only the fruit of misery, never of order and peace. Knowing therefore that the little children who are incoming will be victims of man’s dangerous defections from just action we urge that this activity of light be expanded more and more.
A strengthening of the bonds of devotion to the preservation of God’s dream for America and the world is in order. For the ascended masters, in far-off retreats and far-off worlds, are watching as the struggles of mankind go on, hoping and calling forth an avalanche of light to awaken men before it is too late. Understand then, O men of earth, that eternal vigilance is the price that you must pay if you are to preserve liberty upon the earth. Oh, act before it is too late!
