In days gone by on Atlantis I kept the fire burning on the altar of a temple of healing love, and into that temple came many of the children of God who walk the Earth today. We were a sisterhood of devotees to the flame of Mother, come down by the tradition of priests and priestesses of sacred fire who tended the altars of the Mother on Lemuria.
I saw then also in the last days of that period that there came false teachers who saw that the way to tear from children of God the light of holy purpose, the inner vow and inner dedication was to offer unto them as baubles and trinkets the sudden release of energy from any one of the chakras, especially with concentration of the eye upon the lower chakras. And thus with a sudden bursting of energies there were those immediate experiences which satisfy the curious, the profane and those seeking after psychic thralldom. But once the energies had been squandered and the feeling of the flow of the sacred fire as it was released had passed away then those souls who had followed the false teachers had nothing left to work with when they came to the temple and true teachers of light.
I speak of our ministration during the last days of Atlantis when the world was in turbulence much as it is in turbulence today. And God gave into my heart the knowledge of those sons and daughters who should be delivered from the turmoil that was in the land. And God told me that in order for those sons and daughters to be delivered our sisterhood must keep the flame and, above all, keep the flame burning and keep our daily devotions in the temple.
We saw the vision of the coming destruction of the Flood. We saw the handwriting upon the wall, and we identified the servants of God who must be called out from among them. These sons and daughters were at far-flung reaches of the continent, and our prayers given daily were for invocation of the light of Mother around their souls that they might respond to the inner calling of the Inca—the inner calling that would bring them to that fulfillment of a plan made perfect in love.
It was then to that calling that these ones who had been chosen came. But there were others of the children of the Sun who did not heed the opportunity at hand but thought that they had another round and another round and another round for their engagement in things of the world. And so some came, and the ones who came are now the Brothers ascended who carried the flame from Atlantis to other points upon Earth, who came to the altar central and there dipped into the fires of the Trinity and made preparation and sailed their ships to other continents where once again the teachings of the Great White Brotherhood would be enshrined.
We watched as all of this took place. We watched as one by one children of the Sun took their leave of the flame and chose the other way. We watched, knowing that that road not taken would not come to them for many a year.
And so I too found my reunion with God by and by as cycles passed. And I came to the place where my memory of tending fires of the flame of healing love enabled me to unfold a rose in my heart, each petal a fiery equation of light for unfolding of the heart of the people and planet. And by and by as the spirals of the petals increased there came from my heart an infinite number of petals, and the petals were each for the strengthening of the threefold flame in the hearts of devotees of light. Unfoldment is the key, unfoldment by the spiral of the heart—not a sudden bursting explosion that destroys the delicate sensitivities of the light of the heart, not a sudden piercing of chakras and their opening—but the flowering of the rose and thereby the delicate raising of fires of the Mother. And these two are wound upon the spiral of the rose within the heart.
Therefore direct attainment is unfoldment. But that attainment which seems direct is not direct at all but only a sudden rending of the garment whereby there must be undone that damage which is done.
The path, beloved ones, is like all other experiences on earth. Only by work and constancy and consecration is there that unfoldment which can make of you a mother of the world, a Buddha-to-be, a Christed one, an avatar. You see, it is by love and sacred fire and diligence in application and daily consecration of the rose that you will come to have the flowering in your heart of the full fire of energy that rises from the Father on high, the I AM Presence, and from the Mother below in the base-of-the-spine chakra—not by forcing or by ambition or by seeking outer signs, but by the inner commitment to a love that has endured since the origin of being.
We saw then in the last days of Atlantis how the children of light, the very cream of that civilization, were drawn off as by the Pied Piper of Hamelin into a byway and how they too had their drugs, which they have brought back in this culture in these days of earth. And we see how they have also returned with their false teachings, which, even after the Flood, spread to India and to the East, contaminating the very essence of the light that had come down from Lemuria as the tradition of the ancient ones and the Ancient of Days. Thus in the East and West there is an overlay and a residue of those fallen ones who came to subvert the souls of light.
Now in the turning of the cycles over these twelve thousand years, after line upon line of the secrets of God have been measured in the Great Pyramid of life, we who were present upon Atlantis survey again--from inner retreats of the Great White Brotherhood, from the tending of the altar and the fire upon the altar--we survey the land and scene and world, and we see how similar are these last days and how they are prophetic of a confrontation of light and darkness which must ultimately come when mankind insist upon misusing the sacred fires. And that which is done in secret shall be shouted from the housetops. And that practice of meditation which has been taught to children of light which is not in keeping with the teachings of the Great White Brotherhood, it shall be exposed.
If you will take your position in the temple, as we were called to do, if you will understand that the names of sons and daughters of God written in the Book of Life are presented as a scroll to the Messenger this day as the assignment for the community of lightbearers, [you will understand that] the assignment is to tend the flame upon the altar of the temple of the heart. And it is to make the invocation for sealing of these sons and daughters who are abroad over the face of the Earth and who must be cut free to fulfill their mission. For theirs is a place reserved and if they fill not the place, then who will carry the flame and cross and crown and victory of life in this age?
Then there are children of light who have been put upon by the wolves in sheep’s clothing. They have heard the interpretation of doctrine and dogma according to the letter but devoid of the Spirit, and therefore they harp upon that dogma and that doctrine. And they have not the true fire of the Spirit that is the consuming fire, the transforming fire and energy whereby all will receive the Holy Ghost by obedience to the Law. The Holy Ghost is not reserved for the few. It comes to each and every one who bids that Spirit welcome by loving obedience and compassion, by fearlessness in truth, by steadfastness, endurance and willingness to atone for every misdeed.
I am here to call those who would take our place in the temple beautiful, who would keep the flame of Mother for the sons and daughters. I will tell you that it is a requirement of the Law that some among the faithful keep the flame for those who have not yet found the inner vow and calling. And therefore had it not been for the temple keepers of Atlantis those sons and daughters of light who ascended would not have ascended.
In every age there is dependency, the utter dependence of those who are yet to be confirmed in the Law on those who have found that confirming action of the Law. The dependency on the Spirit is the love of the body of God. That utter dependency is the flow from the Central Sun that makes all one in the maximum endeavor of light for the turning of the cycles of the Earth. Dependency upon God and one another is the means of forging the servants of God as brotherhood, as community.
I am Rose of Light because I have willed to be. What will you will to be? Will you expand your vision and see that light upon the hillsides of the Holy City? Will you see the coming of the LORD’s hosts and their helmets and their swords and their shields burnished, reflecting the light of the Sun? Will you see a vision of little children being taken away from this fiery center of Life, of their own I AM Presence? Will you realize that decisions that are being made are not light decisions but very weighty, involving the light and darkness of centuries?
The commitment to the world and ways of the world is the commitment for another twelve thousand years of cycling in the veils of Mater. This is a peak in the graph that spans thousands of years, of centuries, and every so many thousand years there is a peak in the graph whereby we mark maximum opportunity for souls to pass through the open door of Christ. And those who do not ride the crest of the wave of light will find themselves in the backlash, washed then back into the great sea of life, waiting once again for the coming of the wave that will carry them to the shores of eternity and to the ascended master consciousness.
The energies which you feel abroad in the land that are the very presence of the Spirit are anchored by millions and millions of hosts of the LORD ministering unto this nation that this nation might find herself and find once again the homeward path. Do not then take for granted the presence of the Lord in your midst. For there comes a time when the Lord takes the wise virgins who have trimmed their lamps into the bridal chamber and closes the door, and all that is without the door is desolate and desolation.
These are the cycles of manvantaras and coming of Brahma and Vishnu and Shiva. This is the age of
Shiva. And I desire that you should meditate upon Shiva, for Shiva has come to this city to perform a work for the master and the Mother. Shiva has sponsored these lightbearers. Shiva has come in the person of one who will dance; and the dance will be the release of sacred fire, and the dance of Shiva will be as the coming of John the Baptist preparing the way for Christ to come in to the New Jerusalem.So let your mantras to Shiva be shouted, let them be intoned. And let your welcome be to one of the most ancient of the focuses of the consciousness of the Holy Spirit that comes out of the East unto the West, and out of the West and unto the East. And you will note a very sudden change in your climate and in your atmosphere and in your consciousness by the coming of Lord Shiva. Let Shiva be understood, then as the one who stands between the Sun and Moon and the stars and the Earth, a mediator of fohatic energies for and on behalf of the entire Spirit of the Great White Brotherhood. This is an age of liberation when those who have the light recognize that light and true teachings of every religion, when no name or tongue or practice of devotion is foreign, but all giving of devotion unto the one God through His many emissaries comes together. And all peoples and nations and those of every kindred and tongue will worship together in the name of God, and all names of saints of East and West will be held in common. This is the age of the one Mother and one Father when all children of light will come to understand that common origin.
See that you keep the light in the temple burning, for that light in the temple is the lamp unto the feet of all nations. When light is kept burning high all will be drawn to the feet of the Word. And when the light is let down for other considerations you will see that turmoil outside of the temple. You will see the dividing of the way when those who have prepared are drawn into the chamber of the Christ and those who have not must wait for the next peak in the graph.
Let all know that life is real, that your promises are sealed by God, that God has heard you vow a vow of Life, not death. God holds you to that vow. Therefore be Life, be the Life Triumphant! Be in universal manifestation, be the allness of the One. And know that your light holds the balance for Earth, holds the balance for the nations that souls of worth might be drawn out, drawn out and saved for a mighty conflagration in the image of Christ.
Let those who would receive the stigmata invoke it. Let those who would receive the balancing of world karma by repaying for the vengeance of the Lord invoke it. Let those who would pay the price by persecution and by transmutation of persecution invoke it. Let those who would be found fulfilling requirements of the Law know testings of the secret rays. Let those who would be a lamp intensify the light.
I am Rose of Light. I have lost a son in this age. Will you call him home for me? I thank you. 2-20-1977 at Pasadena via Messenger Elizabeth Clare Prophet, Pearls of Wisdom 58:15
