[From the | [From the Greek ''Christos'' “anointed”] '''Messiah''' [Hebrew, Aramaic “anointed”]; '''Christed one''', one fully endued and infilled—anointed—by the Light (the Son) of God. The Word, the Logos, the Second Person of the [[Trinity]], “And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father), full of grace and truth.... That was the true Light which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.”<ref>John 1:14; John 1:9–10.</ref> | ||

The '''Universal Christ''' is the mediator between the planes of Spirit and the planes of Matter; personified as the [[Holy Christ Self|Christ Self]], he is the mediator between the Spirit of God and the soul of man. The Universal Christ sustains the nexus of (the figure-eight flow of) consciousness through which the energies of the Father (Spirit) pass to his children for the crystallization (Christ-realization) of the God Flame by their souls’ strivings in the cosmic womb (matrix) of the Mother (Matter). This process is called materialization (Mater-realization), “The Descent.” The process whereby the soul’s coalesced energies of the Mother pass through the nexus of the Christ consciousness to the Father is the acceleration called spiritualization (Spirit-realization), “The Ascent.” Another name for the process whereby the soul’s energy returns from Matter to Spirit is sublimation (sublime action), or transmutation. | The '''Universal Christ''' is the mediator between the planes of Spirit and the planes of Matter; personified as the [[Holy Christ Self|Christ Self]], he is the mediator between the Spirit of God and the soul of man.

This which is affirmed even today by the Ascended Master Jesus Christ is also affirmed in your behalf by your beloved Christ Self. Thus the Universal Christ of the one Son and the many does indeed mediate the Presence of the I AM to you through your very own beloved Holy Christ Self. This is the true Communion of the Cosmic Christ whose Body (Consciousness) was ‘broken’, shared, individualized, for every child of the Father’s heart. The Sons of God hold the Maxim Light in trust for the babes in Christ. | This which is affirmed even today by the Ascended Master Jesus Christ is also affirmed in your behalf by your beloved Christ Self.

Christ-mastery includes the balancing of the [[threefold flame]]—the divine attributes of Power, Wisdom, and Love—for the harmonization of consciousness and the implementation of the mastery of the seven rays in the chakras and in the [[four lower bodies]] through the Mother Flame (raised [[Kundalini]]). At the hour designated for the ascension, the soul thus anointed raises the spiral of the threefold flame from beneath the feet through the entire form for the transmutation of every atom and cell of her being, consciousness, and world. The saturation and acceleration of the four lower bodies and the soul by this transfiguring light of the Christ Flame takes place in part during the initiation of the transfiguration, increasing through the resurrection and gaining full intensity in the ritual of the ascension. | ||
