“Blessed Ones, there is nothing that takes the place of holding the Picture of an Ascended Master enfolded in the Sacred Fire on your own forehead or on the forehead of everybody and everything you contact. More than that, in the animal creation of the outer world, this will hold control of the destructive conditions in the animals. The Ascended Masters’ Sacred Fire Love and Harmony and Activity of Purity can hold control of the destructive conditions in animals. This is what the Masters use in the forests when They go through a forest with wild animals; those animals don’t have any desire to do anything destructive to Them, because this goes ahead of Them and soothes the feeling in the animal.
Now this is how you become master over the animal nature of man, over the animal conditions in the physical world – the animals that are in the physical world and in the destructive activities of the Powers of Nature. Everything this does for you inside of yourselves or through you or around you or in your world, brings some manifestation from the Ascended Masters’ Octave that is constructive and produces the things in this world that bring Our Ascended Master Perfection here, and one day makes this world Our World of Manifestation. But mankind must control the habit of the attention going to this, that, and the other thing, and constantly drawing back to the individual that chaos that is in outer world conditions to which the attention goes.
Now, if you want to break the habit of letting the attention connect with what is destructive in the outer world, remember your Call to your “Mighty I AM Presence” and to Us, to fill you with what We know prevents all wrong; and this prevents you letting your attention go to something wrong. This is Ascended Master Control within yourselves, and this saves your energy. You do not commence to become exhausted when you understand this. You will have much more energy to use, and it will be harmoniously qualified and therefore will produce Perfection for you; and you will not know the exhaustion that you do otherwise. So this has many, many, many Blessings.
Nothing takes the place of the Luminous Presence of your “Mighty I AM Presence” and the Ascended Masters and the Sacred Fire; nothing takes the place of that.
And if you were to hold the Picture of the Upper Figure in the Chart , the Causal Body, just like the whole Picture lowered in and around your physical body, and ask your “Mighty I AM Presence” and the Seven Mighty Elohim to – as you hold that Picture – fill you and everything in your being and world with what your “Presence” and the Ascended Masters know, inside of you, prevents all wrong, you can free yourself in a very short time if you will practice this.
It doesn’t take any struggle to set the habit and to use It. It’s comfortable, It’s constructive, It’s Perfect and doesn’t contain one thing that isn’t perfect, and it is no particular effort to do it. You can love to do it, and let that Love come into you and prevent all wrong. And if you don’t fill yourselves with the Sacred Fire of Our Love that prevents all wrong, the outer world will drive its wrong into you and destroy you. So, there’s no compromise; you’re either going to set the habit, and by it become your Freedom; or else, if you don’t use It for yourself and for others, then the outer world comes in and imposes its destruction upon you. And there is no middle ground. There is no halfway place. Either the Light and the Sacred Fire Love is there, or the darkness is there.
So, Blessed Ones, I trust from this hour that when you think of any one of the Ascended Masters, you’ll hold the Picture of that Master in your forehead. And also hold It within your Heart. When you feel within your Heart – your Love feels the Presence of an Ascended Being’s Picture within your Heart – sooner or later the atmosphere is cleared, and your Love opens the way for Us to come to you in the Visible, Tangible Body. (applause; audience rising). Thank you so much, Precious Ones. Won’t you be seated, please.”
Beloved Lord Maha Chohan
