your universal search for loveliness, peace and victory over all outer conditions

   The heart of the world awaits that composite and descendant measure of hope perceived through the Universal Christ, the servant of the meek and the lowly, the servant of all men.
  The fiery radiance of hope opens the door to new areas of mental chastity.  But beyond standards and mores, beyond the law is the perfection of inner spheres, the realm to which the mind quite naturally rises when free from the encumbrances of mortal thought and feeling.  Alas these are too frequently involved with aspects of the anatomy of the physical world in which mankind do not see the true purposes of life made physically manifest because of the tinted lens of the carnal mind; thus they retain a warped view of the purpose of the physical plane.
  The time has come when men must seek for purity as one of the greatest aspects of divine love.  The mortal conception of those loves which are called many splendored things belies the one true purpose of divine love–that interpenetrating radiance which shines forth and show forth the very s  oul of God Himself as not only inherent within His creation but also victorious in the fulfilling of His purposes among men who seek Him.
  Stability is needed, but it ought to be sought in those elements of divinity which stress the full potential of the individual.  How few truly perceive the meaning of the Christos, of the Universal Mediator.  How many dogmatize the person of Jesus without understanding that this too was surrendered in Him as it must be in all men in order that a greater measure of universal glory man shine forth.
  John the Baptist declared “He must increase, but I must decrease.”  And so with the steadiness of divine seeking as the search advances into those throbbing, exciting manifestations of divinity within the domain of self, men will find that they will attach less and less importance to historical events connected with their lives and more and more to their friendship with the divine. This always entails a surrender of the lesser unto the Greater, an exposé of vain desires and attachments, the vanities of Ecclesiastes–all of them surrendered unto the Universal.
Thinking now of the evolution of standards that takes place in the life of the individual as his search progresses, and knowing that as the search culminates in greater measures of fulfillment there is a greater degree of surrender to the divine will, I must remind the aspirant upon the path, here near the portal of the year, of his wondrous opportunities to embrace the virtue and truth that are to be found in the spiritual domain.  These opportunities are not only soul-satisfying but they are also typical of the progress of the neophyte toward the streaming glories of perfection that are ever shining from far-off worlds.
  The regrettable incidence of inharmonies, crimes, punishments and flagellations of embodied mankind by their own gross violations of cosmic Law speaks explicitly of the need for individuals to focus their attention upon divine perfection.  Don’t you realize, seekers after God, that events are arranged not just by circumstance but by law–the law that man himself sets up in his world–so as to take the attention of mankind from those magnificent standards of divinity which are always the arbiters of your perfection and place it upon those grossly repetitive thoughts and feelings which add to the weight, already too heavy, of mankind’s unfortunate experience?
  We call upon the supreme power of the universe inherent within each of you to release you as speedily as possible from the dark domain of carnal thoughts that leech your energies; and we call upon you to turn the reins of your heart and mind over to your holy Christ Self and your beloved god Presence so that the purity you project into the future by deeds well done in the now may offer you a tomorrow far superior to your today.
  The harnessing of the individual to his native Deity is at first a startling manifestation of a new and grand hope.  But as the shadows recede and the sun illuminations of cosmic fires release their wondrous techniques for unfolding deification upon mankind, he will find at last the inner splendor that has always guided his being.
  I doubt that many will lament the consumption of old records of sin, sickness and death, of tragedies and hopelessness.  I feel certain that as the lines of divine character descend into the disciple’s hand, mine, and identity the spheres of heavenly action will manifest anew upon Earth unto the most marvelous gathering-together of the sons of men who shall become the sons of God.  And the benediction “Thou art My son, this day have I begotten thee” will be more and more the result of your universal search for loveliness, peace and victory over all outer conditions.
  The previews I have given to you of spiritual techniques and blessings to be offered this year are token manifestations of the cornucopia of divine purpose held in the wings of the stage of life soon to be released to those seekers whose minds and hearts are open to the love of God.
  The Brotherhood marches on; and purity of thought is our banner, purity of being our goal, and purity of action the manifestation of the divine hand through the veil of flesh.
   I remain diligently

My Peace I Give unto You:
  As the Messenger of Peace returns to the heart of God there flows from the organ at Shigatse the melody of his soul that is a flowing stream of life and of peace triumphant.  Take then this proffered gift that comes from the angel who declared to Magdalene “He is not here, for he is risen.”  Take the gift of peace from the Elohim of Peace and his divine complement, Aloha, from Uriel the Archangel and his Aurora.  For in the heart of the Prince of Peace and those who have served with him down through the ages is the healing of a world weary from war, weary from exploitation, degeneration and the madness and melodrama of calculated chaos.
  Christ walks upon the hillsides today as he did two thousand years ago, and the angels of peace that accompany him do minister unto the hearts of the few and the many that are ready to be molded in the divine design.  They sing a song in bands and strands of glory:  “How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, thy God reigneth!”  They sing of Mark whom they call the Mother of the Ark, for he nourished the flame of the ark of the covenant and drew therefrom the eternal message of salvation to God’s chosen people.
  I knew him as Bonaventura!  As a small boy he was healed in answer to my prayer when as Francis of Assisi I received him from a mother who sought divine intervention for her son.  The light that flowed from God that day restored him instantly to radiant health, and I saw prophetically the mighty work God has in store for him.  In the presence of that power from on high I could only exclaim, “O buona ventura!”  And so he was called from that time on.  As a young man totally dedicated to God he joined our Order and became a brilliant light focusing the flame of illumination upon the teachings of Christ throughout the Church where he is known to this day as Doctor Seraphicus.
  I come to you then with the eternal message of peace because there is a rumbling in the Earth and a rumbling among the dark ones thirsty for the blood of the children of light.  Will you let them continue their slaughter of holy innocents or will you challenge their darkness and put them to flight?
  It is time that the sons and daughters of God who know that they are sons and daughters of God shall stand up and be counted among those who challenge the rising tides of darkness.  And why do they rise, blessed ones?  Because the light has increased in the heart of the World Mother in manifestation here below.  An intangible manifestation there is aglow, a candle that has become a mighty torch of illumination to this age.  And as the light increases so the darkness clamors for recognition and the dark ones rattle their sabers.  But in the heart of the light which they have misqualified is the very Presence of God, for God is Light.  And He is the Life of every manifestation, whether it be classed as good or evil, for the energy that mankind have used to spawn a shadowed veil is His energy.  Therefore in addition to the tides of darkness that rise to counteract the light there is a vortex of darkness that builds around every focus of light because the whitefire core of the energies of which the darkness was created seeks to be free.  Hence misqualified energy is this very hour rushing into centers of light around the world to be set free.
  Is it any wonder then that our just stewards who tend the flame, priests and priestesses of the sacred fire, should have a more than ordinary challenge, a more than ordinary task in this hour of the dawning of the Age of Aquarius when all things are in a state of flux and mankind have the opportunity of the millennia to merge with the freat Light and to be co-creators with the Peaceful One–with God Himself who stands in the center of the flame which they invoke, calling His children home?
  The tiny electron, atoms and molecules–all energy is called home.  And where is home?  Home is where you make it.  Home is in the flame you have invoked, for every flame is a focus of the Central Sun from whence you came, one and all, and whither you shall return.  The voice of God, as the voice of one crying in the wilderness of man’s miscreations, calls home His energy, His children, His angels and elementals–all who are a part of His vast Being.
  Be not dismayed then that when you invoke the flame of peace chaos pursues; when you invoke the flame of love hatred comes knocking at the door; when you raise on high the torch of illumination darkness and ignorance surround thee.  These negative energies ought to be welcomed and put to the torch with the same joy that you feel when you rake a pile of leaves and set a match to them and watch them as they glow and burn and are no more.  God’s energy must be freed if mankind are to transcend and transmute the karma that must be balanced before the golden age can fully manifest.  God’s energy must be made free through you who live to keep the vigil with the Brothers in White.
  I am known as a master of peace, but I prefer to be called simply a Brother of the Golden Robe.  That holy order which was founded long ago by one who saw true knowledge as the peace that passeth understanding still functions today; and we count among our band ascended ones who have espoused the golden flame of illumination as a means of imparting peace to mankind as well as those unascended brothers and sisters who desire to become the peaceful presence of His wisdom to all mankind.
  We are looking for recruits.  Therefore I write to you to apprise you of the fact that there are openings in our chambers, in our libraries and in our retreats–openings for those who diligently call and are willing to be the allness of the All to hearts hungry for the flame, never chary.  Yes, we have openings for those who are not chary in their use of the flame as they call with a mighty fervor upon His name.

I AM the golden flame of peace/ I AM illumination’s sweet release/ I AM the fires of Central Sun/
I AM the Christ, the Immaculate One/ Come forth from Cosmic Virgin/
To call Her children home,/
To speak of Her great love,/
To make Her diadem known.

For those who yet question/
The reality of God–/
O God, I will take action!/
For them I come to walk the Earth,/ To preserve the worth/ Of all whom Thou shalt give to me/ As Thou gavest to the Son of God/
A portion of Thy fold/
To garner and to mold,/
To win them for the Mighty One/ And return them to the Central Sun.

I, Kuthumi, call my own./
As Jesus said,/
“My sheep know my voice.”/ I send forth the call/ North, south, east and west/ To all who desire to be blessed/ And to bless with oil of illumination’s flame,/ To teach men how to play the game–/
Of life, you know./
For mankind dwelling here below/ Know not that Earth is schoolroom/
Or that they come to learn/
The three r’s of self-mastery:/
Of reading the Law of Life within the Mind of God,/
Of writing the Law of Life within the mind of man./
And the ‘rithmetic of the Law is the equation/
Of God becoming man/
And man becoming God.

If you would attend/
Our university of the Spirit/
To learn the way,/
To teach men how to pray,/
Then I say, call to me/
And ask the angelic hosts/
To accompany you to my retreat in Kashmir/ And we shall receive you here/
To hear the Word–/
Not mine alone,/
But of the Masters of the Himalayas/ Who have outlined/ A course of instruction/ For the teachers of the race.

This is our offering/
In this troubled time,/
An opportunity for you/
To make the world sublime/
And in so doing to climb,/
To climb the highest mountain/ Of the summit of your being/ That leads you to your fellowman./
In being your brother’s keeper/ You will see unfold the plan/ Whereby you, too, can ascend/ At the close of this embodiment/ And return a warrior of peace to the heart of God.

The pathway of service and ministration/ Through peace and illumination/ Is open!
Come with me, take my hand/ And explore a new land/ Where heaven and earth meet/ And the Son of God–the light of man–/
Stands upon the hillside to welcome you/
With ten thousand of His saints.
