<blockquote>I am an ascended being, but it has not ever been thus.

I have seen civilizations rise and fall. I have seen the undulations of consciousness as mankind have cycled from [[golden age]]s to primitive societies. I have seen the choices, and I have seen mankind by wrong choices squander the energies of a hundred thousand years of scientific advancement and even degrees of cosmic consciousness that transcend that which is attained by members of the most advanced religions of the day.</blockquote>

Samuel warned the Israelites of the dangers that would befall them through their rulers, but they still clamored for a king. Thus he anointed Saul as their leader and charged him and the people to always obey the voice of the L<small>ORD</small>. But when Saul proved to be an unfaithful servant, Samuel pronounced the L<small>ORD</small>’s judgment upon him for his disobedience and secretly anointed [[King David|David]] as king. When the prophet died, he was buried at Ramah; all of Israel mourned his passing.

Saint Germain was also embodied as Saint Joseph, the father of Jesus and husband of [[Mother Mary|Mary]]. There are few references to him in the New Testament. The Bible traces his lineage back to [[King David|David]]. It also recounts how when the angel of the Lord warned him in a dream that Herod planned to kill Jesus, Joseph heeded the warning and took his family to Egypt, returning after Herod’s death. Joseph is said to have been a carpenter and is thought to have passed on before Jesus began his public ministry. In Catholic tradition, Saint Joseph is revered as Patron of the Universal Church, and his feast is celebrated on March 19.

Once his deed was discovered, Alban was scourged and sentenced to death. Legend says that so great a multitude gathered to witness his execution that they could not pass over a narrow bridge that had to be crossed. Alban prayed and the river parted to give passage to the crowd, whereupon his appointed executioner was converted and begged to die in his place. The request was denied and he was beheaded along with Alban.

Alban has been revered by the people of the Isles since his death in <small>A</small>.<small>D</small>. 303. As the Reverend Alban Butler writes in his ''Lives of the Fathers, Martyrs and other Principal Saints,'' “Our island for many ages had recourse to St. Alban as its glorious protomartyr and powerful patron with God, and acknowledged many great favours received from God, through his intercession.”

Saint Germain worked from inner planes as the Master Teacher behind the Neoplatonists. He inspired the Greek philosopher Proclus (c. <small>A</small>.<small>D</small>. 410–485), the highly honored head of Plato’s Academy at Athens. Under the Master’s tutelage, Proclus based his philosophy upon the principle that there is only one true reality—the “One,” which is God, or the Godhead, the final goal of all life’s efforts. Proclus’s writings extended to almost every department of learning, from philosophy and astronomy to mathematics and grammar. He acknowledged that his enlightenment and philosophy came from above and he believed himself to be one through whom divine revelation reached mankind.

He inspired the Greek philosopher Proclus (c. <small>A</small>.<small>D</small>. 410–485), the highly honored head of Plato’s Academy at Athens. He revealed his pupil’s previous life as a Pythagorean philosopher, also showing Proclus the sham of Constantine’s Christianity and the worth of the path of individualism (leading to the individualization of the God flame) which Christians called “paganism.”

Under the Master’s tutelage, Proclus based his philosophy upon the principle that there is only one true reality—the “One,” which is God, or the Godhead, the final goal of all life’s efforts. The philosopher said, “Beyond all bodies is the essence of soul, and beyond all souls the intellectual nature, and beyond all intellectual existences the One.”<ref>Thomas Whittaker, ''The Neo-Platonists: A Study in the History of Hellenism'', 2d ed. (Cambridge:  Cambridge University Press, 1928), p. 165.</ref>

Proclus acknowledged that his enlightenment and philosophy came from above—indeed he believed himself to be one through whom divine revelation reached mankind. “He did not appear to be without divine inspiration,” his disciple Marinus wrote, “for he produced from his wise mouth words similar to the most thick falling snow; so that his eyes emitted a bright radiance, and the rest of his countenance participated of divine illumination.”<ref>Victor Cousin and Thomas Taylor, trans., ''Two Treatises of Proclus, The Platonic Successor'' (London: n.p., 1833), p. vi.</ref>

<blockquote>In some of you a hearty amount of karma has been balanced, in others hardness of heart has truly melted around the [[heart chakra]]. There has come a new love and a new softening, a new compassion, a new sensitivity to life, a new freedom and a new joy in pursuing that freedom. There has come about a holiness as you have contacted through my flame the priesthood of the Order of Melchizedek. There has come a melting and dissolving of certain momentums of ignorance and mental density and a turning toward a dietary path more conducive to your own God-mastery.</blockquote>

Saint Germain teaches the science of alchemy in his book ''Saint Germain On Alchemy''. He uses the [[Amethyst (gemstone)|amethyst]]—the stone of the alchemist, the stone of the Aquarian age and the violet flame. The waltzes of Strauss carry the vibration of the violet flame and will help to put you in tune with him. He has also told us that the “Rakoczy March,” by Franz Liszt, carries the flame of his heart and the formula of the violet flame.
