PRIMARY INSTRUCTION LESSON NO. 7 ‘THE WHITE RAY OF PURITY 1, ‘THE FOURTH RAY The Fourth Ray represents the White Flame of Purity, the Resurrection Flame, the Immaculate Con cept, and also the Ascension Flame, Since the Ascen- sion is the Goal of all life and the reason for en- bodiment; we shall take It up in detail in Lesson Number Fourteen. The Chohan of the Fourth Ray, through Whom the Purity and Resurrection Flames are focused, is the Ascended Master Serapis Bey, Whose special service it is to guard the actual ‘Ascension Flame at Luxor, Egypt since It was carried by Him and others to Its present location at the time of the sinking of the Continent of Atlantis. Purity and holding the Immaculate Concept be- comes necessary for the student as he moves along the Path, and the resurrecting of all the good in his lifestream, before the individual is able to "graduate" in the Victory of the Ascension, ‘All training by the Ascended masters is for one purpose only - to help aspiring students to so puri- fy and harmonize themselves that they may quickly gain the Ascension and BECOME the "I AM" Presence and fulfill the reason for being. The Beloved Serapis Bey hwlds a strict discipline for those who aspire to the Ascension, for it is not lightly that the fullness of God is attained by those who have misused God's energy through many ages of living. ‘The Fourth Sphere is where the Holy Christ Selves of mankind abide until such time as They are able to take over and become "Ihe Christ" here on Earth. The Fourth Ray becomes the "bridge between theInner Realms of Perfection and the outer manifestat- ion of the divine plans into the world of form, The Elohim of Furity expresses particularly through this Ray and holds the Immaculate Concept for the Earth and each one of mankind. The great Archangel Gabriel draws the Resurrection Flame through this Ray and in the outer world of form those who belong to-this Ray are usually very artistic and have talent along the activities of music, dancing, drama, painting, sculp- ture and architecture, and are usually blessed with great fortitude in seeing things through, White is the Color of this Ray and Liebestram by Liszt is Its Theme Song. 2. THE IMMACULATE CONCEPT The Immaculate Concept which is so little under- stood in the outer world is that activity of holding in'the thoughts and feelings the DIVINE PATTERN, the Divine Blueprint for yourself, each other, and every part of life you contact. There is a glorious and beautiful Divine Pattern for every expression of life, and when that is held in consciousness instead of the outer appearance which temporarily clothes that par- ticular form, it asststs in bringing into outer mani- festation the expression of the blessing with which God endowed it in the beginning, The Beloved Mother Mary did this for the Master Jesus, holding fast to the Image of GOD MAN for Jesus from before His Birth until after the Victory of His Ascension, and She holds that for each child Of God on the Earth to this day. The Immaculate Concept is MAGNIFYING THE GOOD everywhere your attention rests, and thus you mini- mize the appearances of imperfection and help to bring more Light to the Earth rather than more shadows. Lento exo something of GOOD everywhere, and try see yourself and each Being which each one really ig, “Pe Sot Be 3, SERAPIS BEY SAYS: “I am Ome among a great Hierarchy Who are ser— vants of your Light; Who have come and remained as part of the evolution of the planet Earth until im- prisoned life is set free, We are the Brothers and Sisters of the Ascension, Across your breasts are written the words, "CANDIDATE FOR THE ASCENSION" and you are privileged among all men, women and children that use the Earth as a planetary home, for the Lords of Karma have chosen to vest your lifestreams with embodiment, to give you opportunity to make things right. Up until the securing of the dispensation whereby we might SPEAK with you, we had to render Qur service through radiation. r "Tt is My privilege and honor to answer the sun— mons from the heart when there is opportunity through the use of this mighty Ascension Flame to raise a consciousness again to its natural God-estate. With- in every electron of Light that flows so freely and constantly from the Source of the Universal into. your hearts, is EVERY QUALIFICATION of the Sacred Fire. Within every electron there waits FIRE, FIRE, FIRE - the Fire that becomes the bread on your table, the substance that clothes you, the fire that becones the transmutation of your transgressions into harmon~ ious energy; the fire that becomes for you the actual Elixir of Healing, that becomes the Resurrection of the powers which you knew in the Great Central Sun, in the Inner Spheres and even here in the physical world ages ago; the fire that one day when your momentum is builded, will join with the Cosmic Flame and give to you that marvelous experience which you know as the Ascension! "at Luxor, where you have visited Me on and off through the centuries, Our complete discipline lies in turning the consciousness of the aspirant INWARD to the Flaming Heart-beat, until such an one can draw from that Heartbeat even the necessities to=4= nourish the physical body, even as Jesus drew the manna from Heaven. The clothing, the very garments with which the initiate approaches the alter, are woven out of the energies of his own primal Life: Mastery and completeness is within the unit as the oak tree is within the acorn and the chicken within the egg. As the smallest and most insignificant SEED contains within itself not only the pattern of its full flower, but the way and means of external- izing that pattern, the nourishment required, the magnetic pull upon the elements to develop itself, so of a certainty is the Divine Pattern within the heart of man and LIFE ITSELF endowed with self- sufficiency, It requires but a realization that within that Light that flows in countless millions and millions and millions of units into your world EACH MINUTE is the fullness of everything you desire, healing, freedom, illumination and every God desire. "The Candidate for the Ascension must successfully pass through the disciplines of the Sven Great Temples and learn the great surrender of heart, soul and spizit and desire to cooperate with the lili of 4, THE SEVEN TEMPLES OF INITIATION First: "The neophyte is placed within a cell and al- Towed to commune there with his own Holy "I AM" Pre- sence, endeavoring to contact that God-Self and to develop within himself a humility before It. With- in this first great Temple, under the direction of the Great Morya and His assistants, comes the dis- solving of rebellion, Rebellion within the life- stream is the feeling which brought every man and woman from a state of Grace and constant communion with the God-Self, Rebellion took Lucifer from the Heart of Heaven, and the rebellion against discipline and self-correction is a barrier to real spiritual Progress. It does not mean one should assume ser- vility to any human self, or submission even to the Will of the Master, but the quality of rebellion that _is within the consciousness must_be melted away. We have various ways and means of drawing out of the dormant consciousness those qualities, and a good number of our candidates removed them selves from the Temple before passing through this first initiation, That is why I have set into motion at inner levels those currents which will bring forth particular melodies to dissolve REBELLION in the feelings - rebellion against limitation - rebellion against conditions, Let Me point out it does not require "submission" to limitation, but a constant alert awareness setting into action The Law which is in your hands to remedy conditions and keep you harmonious, peaceful, and constructively employed during this process.” Second: "Those few who pass from the First Temple ‘are taken into the Second Temple known as the Temple of Learning, Here under the Brothers guarded by Kuthumi (and now Lanto), they are given instruction in the law. They develop understanding of the laws of cause and effect and all those laws which you are presently learning, It is a pleasant and happy time, a time of the sowing of the seeds, a time of the’ breathing of life upon those seeds and bringing forth a harvest of works, It is a time when the artists develops his skill, the musician the dexterity of musical accomplishment; a time when the teacher be- comes eloquent in the capacity to convey knowledge and stir enthusiasm in the students; when the states~ man gains the vision similar to that in the founding of the United States of Anerica; it is a time when all that is GOOD develops and grows, and the enthus~ iasm of the Brothers and Sisters is tremendous." Third: "From this initiation in the Second Temple inost pass successfully into the Third Temple under the great protection and guidance of our Beloved Paul, the Venetian, Here again, We come to the discipline of LIVING WITH OUR BROTHERS, of becoming our ‘Brother's Keeper’. The neophytes are placed in living quarters with lifestreams who have within themeo selves those tendencies which are particularly agaravating to the others. Here again the nunbers dwindle and with great feeling of relief, the neophytes rush for the door and leave Us, It is unfortunate, for to live with one's fellowman is one of the greatest tests of the unascended state, Although the graciousness, the beauty, the kindliness of this great Chohan are so great they would melt a heart of stone, the discipline which He gives in learning tolerance and understanding is such that few survive!™ Fourth: "From the above We move into the Fourth Temple - My Temple! This is the first personal contact I have with the neophyte since the entering of the lifestream into our Retreat, It is the time when the neophyte must, for the first time, draw forth enough purity to see His Holy Christ Self Face to Face. It is an initiation when the Master Himself must stand within the aura of the initiate, It is a ‘time when many nefarious presentations from within ‘the inner bodies come to the consciousness of the student, where the ‘many voices' speak; when only discrimination r,_selfle. huni lit an discern the Voice of the Silence, It is a time when, if possible, the ego is inflated and the voices speak of great things the self shall do, This is the time when SELF is shorn of all egotism, subtle and apparent, and after passing through this initie~ tion (during which I stand within the aura and pray the prayer of My Heart to God) the lifestream is ready for the consecration." Eifth: "When the ever-dwindling numbers enter into the Fifth Temple under the great Hilarion, we to the beautiful Festival of Consecration! “fe dedi- cate the priests and priestesses of the Flame, the Sacred Fire, here, Up to this point, they are not permitted to attend the Flame or to officiate on the altar; they are the congregation, the suppli- cants, the neophytes with the shaved heads, the linen garments, bare feet and hopeful hearts. When ~Te they enter Temple Five, having passed through the initiation of joining the Christ Self in humility, selflessness and service, they are ready to have the garments of CONSECRATION, the vestments placed upon themj the golden sandals on their feet, the silken garments upon their bodies, Then the great Hilarion, or the Archangel Raphael or One of Their Court, per- forms the Service of Consecration, The Light is consecrated before it enters the body. The emotional body is consecrated and made visible to the entire assembly, The etheric body is consecrated, The mental body is consecrated, and after those inner bodies are so blessed, every one of the senses is consecrated by the presiding Priest and by Myself. It is a magnificent ceremony and it shall one day be woven into your ceremonies of the future before the lifestreams go forth in more than ordinary ser- vice. There is given the consecration of the hands through which flow the Flame of Healing; the con— secration of the feet which become the anchorage of the Sacred Fire wherever that body moves; the con- secration of the lips to speak the Sacred Words which invoke and command the manifestation of pre- cipitation and healing powers; the consecration of the energies through the eyes that enable the life- stream to see perfection and call it forth." “The Priests and Priestesses, magnificent in their robes, each one representing the Ray which is the natural activity of the lifestream, are assigned to the Temple Worship, Here they serve for shorter or longer periods, some go no farther than this initiat- ion, Many of you have remained the Priests and Priestesses of the Sacred Fire during an entire em- bodiment because, again when you come to Temple Six, the initiation in SELFLESSNESS AND SERVICE is such that many do not choose to incorporate their energies in a mission that might not be successful and lose the accumulated good which brought them to the Temple worship.8 Sixth: "In Temple Six the Brothers become ministex- ing mendicants, leaving Luxor to test their Light in the world of form, The beautiful vestments are taken from their shoulders and folded away, also the silken garments, the magnificent headdress, the jewels of light, the scepters of pover, all are removed! Clothed again as a wandering beggar, the ministering beings under the Devotional Ray, go into the world of form WITH NO CREDENTIALS and with a Voll OF SILENCE - ‘there is no way to make even the spiritually alert and worthy know of their qualifications except in ‘the expansion of their own light which, through the eye, the gesture, the radiation and the aura, have to render the service of expanding the light and en- couraging the Ascension within those they contact." "Here I lost. you many times Many times you went forth to set the world on fire! Many times I saw your receding backs as you walked down the steps, out the door, and the sands of the desert claimed you and only too soon thereafter the senses! Yet it is all part of evolution and lie are allowed by law to feel no pain, Yet tle can feel added happi- ness when you return - as here you are today!" Seventh: "Those who do return and have through the ages, bringing back the sheaves of their service in the world of form, are ready to enter into the Seventh Great Temple and in the action of the Violet Fire, every atom and cell of their being be- comes a ceremony of externalizing God's Will. They become, each one, like a window through which the God Life flows without impure qualification of any kind except to expand the borders of the King- dom. Each one is like a fountain which has neither form nor self and in this cloister they remain until the close of the Earth span and the Ascension from My un Arms and Heart is assured." _ "Your life today in the world of form is sub- Jecting you to much the same initiations as I have described, and you can measure yourselves, your oe successes and your failures without the promptings of a Guru, knowing within the honesty of your own heart wherein you need to develop more light, and wherein you are already master. In this way, each man becomes his own teacher and you pass through the Ascension Flame into the perfection of the great Priest or Priestess of Ceremonial and at the close’ of your Earth Life shall have your Freedom." 5, Play the record of Liebestraum here while the students hold the attention on Beloved Serapis Bey. 6, THE ARCHANGEL GABRIEL The Great Archangel Gabriel serves on the Fourth Ray which is particularly concerned with bridging ‘the gap between the outer mind and man's inherent Divinity. Gabriel is the One Who brings "tidings of great joy". The Fourth Ray is the point of con-. tact between the outer consciouness of unascended beings and their God, for somewhere along life's path, no matter what religious formula any indi-~ vidual believes in and uses, eventually he turns to ‘seék UNION WITH HIS GOD, There are many God Beings Who offer to direct Their assistance when individ- uals call for such help, and the mighty Archangel Gabriel is One of these. A We are told that "man" was created in the Image and Likeness of his Father - God, but looking about us we can see that mankind has "fallen" far from their original Divine Blueprint. The Archangel Gabriel also holds that original concept of perfect- jon = the Immaculate Concept - for all mankind, and will give assistance to all who will call to Him, The Twin-Flame of Gabriel is known by the name of ‘HOPE’ and Her service is to perform exactly what Her name implies; She brings HOPE to the human’ heart for better things to come, Her radiation is bouyant, uplifting, joyous and inspirational. As the radiat- ion of heat from your radiators makes your livinga -10- quarters comfortable, so does the radiation of any Intelligence - Divine or human - affect your atmos phere through their thoughts, feelings, words and deeds, This is not mystic but a scientific fact. Proximity to the heat from a radiator makes one warm; proximity to the Presence of any of God's Messengers, raises the entire consciousness and world of the one who invites such a Presence with Its radiant blessings, gifts and virtues, 7y ARCHANGEL GABRIEL SPEAKS: "Hail, sons and daughters of the living God in- carnated! I come from the Throne of the King of Kings to bring you remembrance of your Divine Identity; to bring to you remembrance of the heri- tage which awaits your claiming, so that you may externalize it to the glory of your Father and the redemption of the Earth which has been your patient protector and hostess. I come from the Realms of the ‘Light of God that Never Fails' into the shad~ ‘ows of the Earth and I say to you ~ 'GODS AND GOD- DESSES! Why sit ye in the shadows when within your heart beats that Fire of Immortality! It contains within Itself the power to redeem, to transmute, to harmonize, to purify, to heal, to supply and to regulate every condition, even with the speed of ‘thought :" "Tam known as the ARCHANGEL OF THE RESURRECTION: It is My privilege and honor, working with the Heiz- archy, to bring to life again the consciousness of Mastery which is the preordained destiny for every man, woman and child belonging to this evolution, as well as those who are the vowed guardians of it. "I dwell within the Fourth Realm and Sphere and I work with the great Serapis and the Holy Christ Selves of almost the entire human race. I am well acquainted with the Divine Perfection for every life- stream belonging to this evolution. I worship in the same Temples, I stand side by side with your a su Christ Selves day after day. I am well equipped to convey to you the FEELING that it is time you open the doors and windows of your soul to the real- ity of that exquisite, majestic Divine Presence - made in the Image of the Father and Mother of this system, which. it is your duty and responsibility to externalize!" "Religion is not a matter of ceremony alone. SA MATTER OF DAILY. LIV: It isa matter of plain, ordinary common sense. It is a matter of discipline, self-control and contem- plation: the development of love and gratitude to life itself and for the God Who has given that Life and sustained you for millions of years." "Today, with all the power of My Own Heart, I CHARGE into your mental body, I CHARGE into your feeling world, I CHARGE into your etheric body, I CHARGE into your physical body the glorious power of the RESURRECTION FLAME to REVERSE the currents that have tied the energies of your bodies into the lower octaves and formed the magnetic pull that has bound you to the Earth, YOU SHALL BE FREE!" "], Gabriel, am speaking into your hearts ~ REMEMBER ME! Call forth that Flame of the Resur- rection, let that which seems ‘dead' within you LIVE! The Light of God, the Youth of God, the Sight of God, the Hearing of God, the Beauty of God, the Love of God - the all-encompassing nature of God IS ALIVE WITHIN YOU! There is an ember in your hearts else you would not have physical form, There is a spark in which is the all-power of the Almighty and I breathe upon it with the Flame of My Spirit - "COME NOW FORTH, YE THAT SLEEP! STAND REVEALED IN MASTERY AND BE GOD FREE,=12- 8, All stand and give the following decrees: "TAM" THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE (repeat before each one and give 3 times) of all the good in my lifestream, of my eternal youth and beauty, of my perfect sight, of my perfect hearing, of my perfect health, limitless strength, energy and courage, of the Love of God, of my invincible protection, of my limitless supply of money and every good thing, of the Light of God that never fails! of Peace and Freedom on the Eartht 9. THE ELOHIM OF PURITY, Beloved Claire, says: “] AM" the Elohim of Purity, I am the Guardian of the Immaculate Concept for this Earth as well as for this entire Universe. I am also the Guardian of the Immaculate Concept of your own individualized Divinity, which is fashioned from White Fire substance and lives in the God- free Realms. This fs your Pattern of Perfection originally created by the Godhead and That Being in all Its perfection, YOU MUST ONE DAY BECOMES I am more than this - I am the Flame of Cosmic PURITY, the natural activity of your own life and not something that must be wooed and drawn from without . "T am the living breathing PURITY of the electron which lives in the center of the atom of which your physical bodies are composed, I am ALIVE in every cell of your body, moving around the central core of every atom of your flesh, Truly can I say ~ "I am always with you for I AM YOUR LIFE!' I am the living breathing electronic light of Purity within your mental bodies; I am the living breathing Flame -13- of pure light, invoked by each of you into the great sea of your emotional world. I am the pure electronic light within every cell of your etheric garment, all waiting to be released from the shadows imposed on them, I am now expanding MY PURITY from within every cell and atom of all your four lower bodies, expand- ing, expandins anding My true nature which is ‘the purification of this Earth and all that is in the Earth, on It or in Its atmosphere." "IE you could stop one electron as it passes from the heart of your God Presence into your physical heart, you would see that the electron contains with- in itself all of the nature of the Godhead; all of Its powers, Its majesty and all of the Divinity which is within the God-parents. The electron itself can never be contaminated for My Flame of Cosmic Christ PURITY lives within every one of them. From whence then comes the shadows, limitations, illnesses and appearances of age and depression? These discord- ant appearances are but the ‘clothing’ of the elect- rons by shadows created from the habit of placing the attention, thoughts and feelings of the outer self upon imperfect appearances in the environment and atmosphere of Earth. {ith your conscious accept~ ance of My service now, I shall endeavor to remove as much as possible of this shadowed substance around your electrons by the mercy of God and by expanding the power of My Flame of PURITY which is already within yo "I speak directly to the electrons which have come from the Universal First Cause, having answered the call and obeyed the magnetic pull of the Inmortal Three-fold Flame within your heart: ‘IN AND BY THE POWER OF GOD ALMIGHTY, I NOW DECREE THAT CONTINUOUS AND PERMANENT EXPANSION OF THAT FLAME OF PURITY IN EVERY CELL OF YOUR BODIES. I COMMAND THIS TO REMOVE THE EFFLUVIA (shadows) AND TRANSMUTE INTO LIGHT EVERY RATE OF VIBRATION WHICH IS AN IMPURITY AND CAUSES HUMAN LIMITATION, I COMMAND THIS DONE Now BY THE, MOST POWERFUL COSMIC ACTION OF THE BLUE-14- LIGHTNING OF COSMIC CHRIST PURTTY FROM MY HEART. ] DECREE THAT THE PURITY WITHIN THE HEART OF EVERY ONE OF YOUR ELECTRONS SHALL Now EXPAND(3) EXPAND(3) EXPAND(3) until that which appears as Limitation can no longer imprison your life in discurd, and thus the shadows cease to be!* "Remember, the only discomfort in the world comes from the lack of the substance of purity in one or more of the four lower bodies, Misqualified energy changes the ratio of the speed of the electrons which form the atom and causes pain, limitation and dis tress. The vibration of the substance of purity quickens the vibratory action of the electrons help- ing them to expand their light, throw off the dis- cordant substance imposed upon them and restores them to the rhythm and harmony of the "I AM" Presence in Whose Divine Image each individual was originally created." "purity is very essential for the use of the Sacred Fire of Precipitation and Etherealization. If the mental body is not purified, it cannot re- ceive the perfect design from the Godhead or the Ascended Masters, nor can It manifest the strength to hold to that design against the disintegrating forces of doubt, fear, ridicule and the many other negative qualities in the atmosphere of Earth which always endeavor to destroy a constructive pattern," "If the emotional body is not purified, the idea and pattern will be so tinged with selfishness and personal ambition that the beautiful design loses much of its perfection and efficacy. “If the etheric body (the seat of memory) is not purified, the failures of the past which are recorded there, will often neutralize and sometimes completely destroy the form before it can be externalized for the blessing of life." -15- "purity is essential to enable one to consciously etherealize substance which has fulfilled its pur- pose, releasing the magnetic pull which has held the form together and allowing the electrons which have made up that form to return to the Sun for re- polarization. "in “ETHEREALIZATION, if the mental body is not purified, it will devise all kinds of schemes to “hold on" to substance and form temporarily loaned to the personal self. If the emotional body is not purified, it will cling tenaciously to possessions as well as to people and clutter up the world with many forms which have completed their efficacy. These bind lifestrams to individuals causing much unnecessary suffering to all concerned. If the etheric body is not purified, it will remember pre- vious losses and be filled with suspicions and fears, and the process of Etherealization will be hindered." "Every Ascended Being uses life only as God intended it to be used - to give some blessing! Then when the forms They have created have given their service, They release that life from that form so it may serve with greater purpose in the future, the opportunity for greater service having been earned by obedience to these Celestial Ones, Would that mankind would learn this lesson of "loosing and letting go'. Often have We witnessed the suffering that has ensued when individuals, refusing to learn this lesson are finally forced by the bitterness of their own experiences to make this renunciation.” "I ask you to call on the Law of Forgiveness for your own misuse of life all through the ages and to accept My gift of Purity in its place, so that you may see, know and BECOME the perfect expression of your own Individualized "I All" Pre- sence - a Holy Grail - receiving into your outer mind the Divine Ideas from that Presence, whichate. through your purified creative centers of thought, feeling and spoken word, you can externalize for your own blessing and for the benefaction of your fellow- man," “\ithin every electron which is released from the Heart of God is the power to create and sustain the Kingdom of Heaven for yourself,your family, your world and the students entrusted to your loving care ~ right here on Earth, Within it is My Flame of PURITY. Right within the brazier of your heart you carry the most powerful concentrate of the ‘Atomic Acceller— ator'! You have full and free access to all that We are and all that We have. Through the concent.ra~ tion of My Flame of PURITY released from ly Presence, T have washed from your inner and physical bodies Literally tons of the accumulated atomic conscious- ness of impurity and imperfection, Please accept ‘this as having been done for you - ‘In the Name of God' - and go forward God and God-free!"” ‘Pee e eee 10, THE SEVEN STEPS TO PRECIPITATION by Beloved CLAIRE, the Elohim of Purity. "(1) In the beginning, when the great Helios and Vesta invited the Elohim to create the planets of our System, Beloved Hercules conveyed that invitation to Us and We, individually as well as in a collective body said: ‘We MILL to render this service’: In connection with the creation of the planet Earth, well do I remember the time when all of Us were drawn around the beautiful Being, the Silent Watcher of this planet, tiell do I remember (2) the Flame of Cassiopea which ILLUMINED to Us the Light Pattern 6f this planet which was held within the heart of the Silent Watcher, placed there by Helios and Vesta. As We looked upon It, We all felt (3) the LOVE of ORION and an intensified desire within Ourselves to cooperate with the God-Parents and bring that planet forth into perfect form." "44) Then came My service to life; to hold that <17- Pattern and Plan inviolate through the Cosmic Flame of PURITY so that not one blade of grass, not one fleme-flower should be externalized that was not a portion of the Divine Ideas, the Pattern of Perfect- ion as It was held within the heart of the Silent Watcher, All through the ages, while the creation of the Earth was taking place, I held that Flame and Patterh of PURITY. This, coupled with the illumined obedience, the sincere humility and love of the Elohim, not desiring to externalize Their Qun pattern and form, but desiring only to bring forth that which was the Divine Plan for the Earth, brought to My heart happiness indeed," "(5) Following iy holding of the Immaculate Concept for the Earth through the use of My Flame of PURITY, My Beloved. Brother VISTA (Cyclopea) brought into action His Flame of CONCENTRATION, (7) Then came Our Beloved Arcturus with. His Activi-~ ties of the Seventh Ray, the RHYTHM OF INVOCATION and the Transmuting power of the Violet Fire, The "seven Steps" were then fully completed by the (6) sealing of the entire creation within the Flame of the Beloved Elohim of PEACE, the Beloved TRANQUILITY!" +e ee 11, BELOVED ASTREA The Great Being known as ASTREA is the Divine Complement of the Great Elohim of Purity. Her ser- vice is working in the astral realm where the cores of impurity and evil exist, and in the dissolving and transmuting of all psychic substance on the Earth, in Its atmosphere and its people. She accom- plishes this by encircling the human creation (which is the psychic substance) around persons, places, conditions and things within HER CIRCLE AND SiORD OF BLUE FLAME, holding the impurity leashed until it can be dissolved and transmuted into perfection.-18- AFTER ASTREA AND THE ASCENDED HOST, have removed the causes and cores of all impurity from the Earth, then the great Elohim of Purity will be welcomed and the people will joyously call to Him for His Flame of Purity to replace all sordidness and imperfections on the Earth, People many times feel they are losing something when they call for PURITY, but instead of Tosing anything they are actually gaining peace, con fort, healing, supply, happiness and all the good and perfect things they desire, Perfection is un- able to manifest when impurity exists (and we are told even an unkind word is an impurity) any more than the Sun can shine through a mud spattered win dow pane. ‘Only by experimenting can you understand the tremendous service Beloved Astrea can give to you by daily calling Her Circle and Sword of Blue Flame to encircle you and your world and hold in check all the human creation in and around you until it can be dissolved and transmuted into purity and perfection. Remember, the psychic realm extends for ten thousand feet above the Earth, and it is only by holding the attention on the Light, the God Presence "I AM" and the Ascended Host of Light, that you can live in the world and keep your own world comparatively untouched by the human creation. 12, ALL STAND AND GIVE THE FOLLOWING DECREES: BELOVED PRESENCE OF GOD "I AM" IN ME and BELOVED ASTREA3 LOCK me and my world in Your Cosmic CIRCLE AND SWORD OF BLUE FLAME; close in upon and remove all entities, human entities, all psychic substance, all human creation in, through, around or driven against me and all danger that might threaten; CLOSE IN UPON IT ALL and dissolve and transmute. it and REPLACE IT by the Cosmic Flames of PURITY, HARMONY AND PERFECTION OF EVERY KIND, and hold it eternally sustained, What I ask for myself, I ask for my loved ones, all who have accepted The Bridge and for all mankind! =19- BELOVED PRESENCE OF GOD "I AM" IN ME AND BELOVED CLAIRE, THE GREAT ELOHIM OF PURITY; CHARGE(3) into every part of my emotional and mental worlds, my etheric and physical bodies Your Cosmic Flane of PURITY: PURIFY (3) my entire being, world and affairs and keep me sealed in Your Oval of Purity for nine feet in every direction and hold it sus- tained, I ask this for my loved ones, all who have accepted The Bridge, and for all mankind: 13, While a record is played, hold the attention on Archangel Gabriel and the Elohim of Purity and Astrea, 14, BENEDICTION SEALED IN THE FLAMES OF PURITY AND RESURRECTION from the Hearts of Beloved SERAPIS BEY, ARCHANGEL GABRIEL, THE ELOHIM OF PEACE AND ASTREA, we thank ‘the Great Ascended Host of Light, the Angelic and Elemental Kingdoms for Your outpouring of Purity and Perfection, Hold them sustained in, through and around us and pour them through us to bless all life everywhere. .
