<blockquote>The purpose of two of us coming from Luxor to attend the [[ascension]] of [[Jesus]] was that we might hold for him in outer manifestation, even in the physical octave (which is why our bodies were lowered to that level), the focus of Alpha and Omega, the focus of the caduceus, for the ascension flame is the wholeness of the light of Father, Mother, Son and Holy Spirit. | <blockquote> | ||
The purpose of two of us coming from Luxor to attend the [[ascension]] of [[Jesus]] was that we might hold for him in outer manifestation, even in the physical octave (which is why our bodies were lowered to that level), the focus of Alpha and Omega, the focus of the caduceus, for the ascension flame is the wholeness of the light of Father, Mother, Son and Holy Spirit. | |||

Therefore we attended the ascension, even as those who receive the ascension at the [[Ascension Temple and Retreat at Luxor|Ascension Retreat]] receive the ministry of two attendants who guard that one as the one becomes one with the rising pillar of fire upon the altar and the sacred dais. It was, then, an effort of hierarchy, though we would never eclipse the attainment of the beloved Son of God, for truly the totality of his consciousness immersed in the Creator of Life was a wonder of wonders even to us who are often witnesses of souls ascending. | |||

Nevertheless, as the [[angel]]s tarried in the tomb as he was working out the flame of the [[resurrection]] and the victory over death, so the Law requires the holding of the balance. And you will recall the extending of the cup to [[David Lloyd]] by the now ascended master [[Godfre]], and you will realize that Godfre himself was the focal point for the white light. And he stood with us who stood at inner levels, guarding the matrix as this son of God traversed from the plane of [[Mater|Matter]] to the plane of [[Spirit]]. | |||

And so the more you learn of the inner workings of [[hierarchy]], the more you realize that truly the path of initiation is a joint effort of ascended and unascended servants of the Most High.<ref>Two Men Who Stood by in White Apparel, “The Ascension of Jesus the Christ,” April 19, 1976.</ref> | |||

<blockquote>We also hold classes in the weaving of the [[seamless garment]], and you would be surprised how many times the initiates must start again and again because of the unevenness of the forcefield of the lines and the threads—the very threads themselves representing the consciousness, the thoughts, the feelings. Thoughts are the warp, feelings are the woof, and the fire of the [[etheric body]] is the smoothness of the cloth that is to drape as a forcefield of auric protection around the physical body and all of the bodies. | <blockquote> | ||

Some of you who have taken sewing classes who have found yourselves sewing and then undoing and then sewing and then undoing can well understand that this is the patience that is required when working on the seamless garment. And you see, the masters of the Ascension Temple have a very sharp eye for the quality of the garment and they never, never let pass an imperfection in the weave.<ref>Ibid.</ref> | |||

<blockquote>Realize, then, that the path of the ascension is nothing but detail. It is the disciple who has the consciousness of detail, who leaves no stone unturned, who will discipline the self, who will realize that it is the small victories inch by inch won in consciousness that make the final victory, just as the raindrops one by one make the streams and rivers of life. | <blockquote> | ||

As you approach, then, the mastery of the [[secret rays]] from the mastery of the [[seven rays]], realize that you are coming nearer and nearer to the fiery core of your ascension. In the seven rays of mastery you are concerned with conquering the world and forging the pathway of light. But the secret rays demand the very delicate awareness of threads and lines, and crisscrossing of threads and lines, for this is truly the weaving of the seamless garment.... | |||

And so the Path continues, the pilgrims continue on the Path, and we watch and we wait. And there will come a time when those of you who have now felt this fire in your heart and who feel it continuing to burn—there will come a time when two of us, whether ourselves or others who serve in twos from the Retreat of Luxor, will come to you, perhaps a decade, perhaps more, before your ascension to assist you in the flow of the currents in your physical, emotional, mental and etheric bodies.<ref>Ibid.</ref> | |||
