Вознесенный Владыка Сен-Жермен

Сен-Жермен является Чоханом Седьмого луча. Вместе со своим близнецовым пламенем, Вознесенной Владычицей Порцией — Богиней Справедливости, он занимает пост иерарха века Водолея. Он — великий покровитель пламени свободы, тогда как Порция покровительствует пламени справедливости.

Сен-Жермен известен как дипломат, помогающий проявлять такие добродетели, как чувство собственного достоинства, такт, благородство, самообладание и подлинное искусство вести государственные дела, всем, кто призывает седьмой луч. Он является членом Дома Ракоци, основанного Великим Божественным Направителем, в замке которого в Трансильвании ныне хранится фокус фиолетового пламени свободы.

Имя Сен-Жермена происходит от латинского Sanctus Germanus, означающего просто «Святой Брат».

Его миссия

Каждый двухтысячелетний цикл проходит под одним из семи лучей. Иисус, будучи Чоханом Шестого луча, занимал пост иерарха века последние 2000 лет. 1 мая 1954 года Сен-Жермен и Порция были коронованы как иерархи наступающего цикла Седьмого луча. Свобода и справедливость — это инь и ян Седьмого луча Водолея: вкупе с милосердием они обеспечивают основание для проявления всех других качеств Бога в этой седьмой диспенсации.

Сен-Жермен и Порция передают народу Божьему диспенсацию Седьмого луча для седьмого века. Это — фиолетовый луч свободы, справедливости, милосердия, алхимии и священного ритуала для [прихода] новой жизневолны, новой цивилизации, новой энергии.

Будучи Чоханом, или Господом Седьмого луча, Сен-Жермен дает посвящение нашим душам в науке и ритуале трансмутации с помощью фиолетового пламени. Он и есть тот седьмой ангел, появление которого предсказано в «Откровении» (Откр. 10:7), который приходит, чтобы покровительствовать совершению тайны Божьей, «как Он благовествовал рабам Своим пророкам».

Сен-Жермен говорит:

Я — вознесенное существо, но так было не всегда. Не раз и не два, а в течение многих воплощений я ходил по земле, как и вы теперь, заточенный в смертную оболочку с сопутствующими пространственными ограничениями. Я был на Лемурии, на Атлантиде. Я видел расцвет и упадок цивилизаций. Я видел изменение сознания по мере того, как люди деградировали от золотых веков к примитивным обществам. Я видел, как делались выборы и как человечество, принимая неверные решения, растрачивало энергии, накопленные за целую сотню тысяч лет научного прогресса, теряло иногда достижения сознания космического уровня, значительно превосходившие все то, чего достигли члены самых передовых религий современной эпохи.

Да, я видел эти выборы, и я выбирал и сам. Делая правильный выбор, мужчина и женщина упрочивают свое положение в иерархии. Решив быть свободным внутри круга великой воли Бога, я завоевал свободу от смертного колеса воплощений и оправданий существования вне Единого. Я обрел свободу с помощью пламени — того ключа цикла Водолея, который искали древние алхимики, того фиолетового эликсира, которым владеют святые...

Вы — смертны. Я — бессмертен. Единственное различие между нами состоит в том, что я выбрал свободу, а вам еще предстоит сделать этот выбор. У нас один и тот же потенциал, одни и те же ресурсы, одна и та же связь с Богом. Я воспользовался этими средствами, чтобы выковать Бого-идентичность. Ибо когда-то давно внутренний голос произнес указ Альфы и Бога живого: «Дети Единого, куйте свою Бого-идентичность». И я услышал этот зов в ночной тишине и ответил: «Я сделаю это!» И когда я сказал «Я сделаю», весь космос отозвался эхом: «Я сделаю!» Воля быть чем-то собирает беспредельный потенциал существа...

Я ЕСМЬ Сен-Жермен, и я пришел, чтобы утвердить вашу душу и огни вашего сердца в победе века Водолея. Я подготовил матрицу для посвящения вашей души... Я иду по пути свободы. Выберите этот путь, и вы встретите меня. Я — ваш учитель, если вы примете меня.

Правитель цивилизации золотого века

► Main article: Golden age in the Sahara Desert

Более пятидесяти тысяч лет назад Сен-Жермен правил цивилизацией золотого века, расцветшей на плодородных землях, превратившихся ныне в пустыню Сахара. Будучи королем-императором, Сен-Жермен в совершенстве владел древней мудростью и знанием материальных сфер, и люди видели в нем эталон собственного рождающегося Богобытия. Его империя достигла высот красоты, гармонии и совершенства, не превзойденных в физической октаве.

Когда люди этой цивилизации перестали интересоваться созидательным планом Великого Божественного Я, увлекаясь все больше и больше преходящими чувственными удовольствиями, Космический Совет дал правителю указание покинуть империю; впредь собственная карма должна была стать гуру для его подданных. Царь дал большой званый обед для своих советников и государственных деятелей. Каждый из его 576 гостей получил хрустальный кубок, наполненный «чистой электронной субстанцией».

Этот защитный эликсир был даром Сен-Жермена душам своих служителей, чтобы, снова получив в веке Водолея возможность возродить цивилизацию золотого века, они вспомнили о Я ЕСМЬ Присутствии и стали примером для всех людей, показывающим, что Бог может и будет обитать со Своим народом, если люди сделают свои умы и сердца приемлемым жилищем для Его Духа.

Во время торжественного обеда взял слово Космический Владыка. Он не представлялся, лишь на его челе было начертано слово «Победа». Он предупредил людей о надвигающемся кризисе, который они сами вызвали своим неверием, упрекнул их за невнимание к Великому Божьему Истоку и предсказал переход власти в империи к принцу, который едет с целью просить руки царской дочери. Через семь дней правитель и его семья удалились в золотой город — эфирное дополнение этой цивилизации; а еще через день явился Принц и беспрепятственно занял престол.

Верховный жрец на Атлантиде

13 тысяч лет тому назад Сен-Жермен, будучи верховным жрецом Храма Фиолетового Пламени на Атлантиде, поддерживал с помощью призывов и собственного Каузального Тела столб огня — фонтан поющего фиолетового пламени, которое, как магнит, притягивало к себе жителей ближних и дальних окрестностей, стремившихся освободиться от всего, что сковывало тело, ум и душу. Для достижения освобождения требовалось приложить собственные усилия: обращаться с призывами к священному огню и совершать ритуалы Седьмого луча.

Все, совершавшие богослужения перед алтарем Храма Фиолетового Пламени, предварительно готовились к получению сана священника Вселенского ордена Мелхиседека в обители Господа Задкиила — Храме Очищения, который располагался там, где сейчас находится остров Куба. Это священство сочетает совершенную религию и совершенную науку. Именно там Сен-Жермен и Иисус получили помазание, провозглашенное самим Задкиилом: «Ты священник вовек по чину Мелхиседека».

До затопления Атлантиды, когда Ной еще строил ковчег и предупреждал людей о надвигающемся великом потопе, Великий Божественный Направитель призвал Сен-Жермена и нескольких преданных жрецов перенести пламя свободы из Храма Очищения в безопасное место у подножия Карпат, в Трансильвании. Здесь они продолжили священный ритуал распространения огней свободы, даже когда по божественному повелению нисходила карма человечества.

В последующих воплощениях Сен-Жермен и его приверженцы, следуя указаниям Великого Божественного Направителя, вновь открыли это пламя, а позднее под руководством того же Гуру в месте, где хранилось пламя, была основана Священнообитель и построен Дворец Ракоци, венгерский королевский дом.

Пророк Самуил

В одиннадцатом столетии до нашей эры Сен-Жермен воплощался пророком Самуилом. Он был выдающимся религиозным деятелем в эпоху великого отступничества, последним из древнееврейских судей и первым пророком еврейского народа. В те дни судьи не просто разрешали споры; они были харизматическими лидерами, которые, как полагали люди, могли напрямую общаться с Богом и объединять колена Израилевы против угнетателей.

Самуил был Посланником Божьим, возвестившим освобождение потомков Авраама из-под ига бесчестных священников — сынов Илия и захватчиков-филистимлян. Его, как и Моисея, называют великим заступником. В период непрекращающихся угроз со стороны филистимлян Самуил бесстрашно вел своих людей к духовному возрождению, убеждая их «всем сердцем своим обратиться к ГОСПОДУ» и «удалить из среды себя богов иноземных». Люди раскаивались в грехах своих и умоляли Самуила не переставать взывать к Господу Богу, прося об их спасении. И когда Самуил молился и возносил всесожжение, «ГОСПОДЬ возгремел в тот день сильным громом над Филистимлянами», что позволило израильтянам поразить своих врагов. «И была рука Господня на Филистимлянах во все дни Самуила».

И был пророк судьею Израиля во все дни своей жизни. Когда же Самуил состарился, то поставил сыновей своих судьями над Израилем; но они «уклонились в корысть и брали подарки, и судили превратно», и народ потребовал от Самуила: поставь «над нами царя, чтобы он судил нас, как у прочих народов». Глубоко опечаленный Самуил молился ГОСПОДУ и получил указание исполнить волю людей. И сказал ГОСПОДЬ: «...Не тебя они отвергли, но отвергли Меня, чтоб Я не царствовал над ними».

Самуил предупредил израильтян об опасностях, которые повлечет за собой избрание правителей, но те продолжали шумно требовать царя. В соответствии с их желанием он помазал Саула в цари, наказав ему и народу всегда слушаться голоса ГОСПОДА. Но когда Саул показал себя неверным слугой, проявляющим непослушание Богу, Самуил провозгласил вынесенный ему ГОСПОДНИЙ приговор и втайне помазал Давида на царство. Когда же пророк умер, его похоронили в Раме, и все израильтяне скорбели о его смерти.

Saint Joseph

► Main article: Saint Joseph

Saint Germain was also embodied as Saint Joseph, the father of Jesus and husband of Mary. There are few references to him in the New Testament. The Bible traces his lineage back to 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.

Saint Alban

In the late third century, Saint Germain was embodied as Saint Alban, the first martyr of Britain. Alban lived in England during the persecution of Christians under the Roman emperor Diocletian. He was a pagan who had served in the Roman army and settled in the town of Verulamium, later renamed St. Albans. Alban hid a fugitive Christian priest named Amphibalus, who converted him. When soldiers came to search for him, Alban allowed the priest to escape and disguised himself in the cleric’s garb.

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 A.D. 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.”

Teacher of Proclus

Saint Germain worked from inner planes as the Master Teacher behind the Neoplatonists. He inspired the Greek philosopher Proclus (c. A.D. 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.”

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.

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.”

Merlin

► Main article: Merlin

In the fifth century, Saint Germain was embodied as Merlin—alchemist, prophet and counsellor at the court of King Arthur. In a land splintered by warring chieftains and riven by Saxon invaders, Merlin led Arthur through twelve battles (which were actually twelve initiations) to unite the kingdom of Britain. He worked side by side with the king to establish the sacred fellowship of the Round Table. Under the guidance of Merlin and Arthur, Camelot was a mystery school where the knights and ladies pursued the inner unfoldment of the mysteries of the Holy Grail and a path of personal Christhood.

In some traditions, Merlin is described as a godly sage who studied the stars and whose prophecies were recorded by seventy secretaries. The Prophecies of Merlin, which deals with events extending from Arthur’s time into the distant future, was popular in the Middle Ages.

Roger Bacon

► Main article: Roger Bacon

Saint Germain was Roger Bacon (1220–1292), philosopher, Franciscan monk, educational reformer and experimental scientist. In an era in which either theology or logic or both dictated the parameters of science, he promoted the experimental method, declared his belief that the world was round, and castigated the scholars and scientists of his day for their narrow-mindedness. “True knowledge stems not from the authority of others, nor from a blind allegiance to antiquated dogmas,” he said. Bacon eventually left his position as a lecturer at the University of Paris and entered the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor.

In his day Bacon was renowned for his exhaustive investigations into alchemy, optics, mathematics and languages. He is viewed as the forerunner of modern science and a prophet of modern technology. He predicted the hot-air balloon, a flying machine, spectacles, the telescope, the microscope, the elevator, and mechanically propelled ships and carriages, and wrote of them as if he had actually seen them.

His scientific and philosophical world view, his bold attacks on the theologians of his day, and his study of alchemy and astrology led to charges of “heresies and novelties,” for which he was imprisoned for fourteen years by his fellow Franciscans. But to those who followed after him, Bacon was “doctor mirabilis” (“wonderful teacher”), an epithet by which he has been known down the centuries.

Christopher Columbus

► Main article: Christopher Columbus

Saint Germain was also embodied as Christopher Columbus (1451–1506), discoverer of America. Over two centuries before Columbus sailed, Roger Bacon himself had set the stage for Columbus’ voyage to the New World when he stated in his Opus Majus that “the sea between the end of Spain on the west and the beginning of India on the east is navigable in a very few days if the wind is favorable.” Although the statement was incorrect in that the land to the west of Spain was not India, it was instrumental in Columbus’ discovery. He quoted the passage in a 1498 letter to King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella and said that his 1492 voyage had been inspired in part by this visionary statement.

Columbus believed that God had made him to be “the messenger of the new heaven and the new earth of which He spake in the Apocalypse of St. John, after having spoken of it by the mouth of Isaiah.” “In the carrying out of this enterprise of the Indies,” he wrote to King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella in 1502, “neither reason nor mathematics nor maps were any use to me: fully accomplished were the words of Isaiah.” He was referring to the prophecy recorded in Isaiah 11:10–12 that the Lord would “recover the remnant of his people...and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.”

He was certain that he had been divinely selected for his mission. He studied the biblical prophets, writing passages relating to his mission in a book of his own making entitled Las Proficias, or The Prophecies—in its complete form, The Book of Prophecies concerning the Discovery of the Indies and the Recovery of Jerusalem. Although the point is seldom stressed, it is a fact so rooted in history that even Encyclopaedia Britannica says unequivocally that “Columbus discovered America by prophecy rather than by astronomy.”

Francis Bacon, Viscount St Alban, by unknown artist

Francis Bacon

► Main article: Francis Bacon

As Francis Bacon (1561–1626), he was philosopher, statesman, essayist and literary master. Bacon, who has been called the greatest mind the West ever produced, is known as the father of inductive reasoning and the scientific method, which to a great degree are responsible for the age of technology in which we now live. He foreknew that only applied science could free the masses from human misery and the drudgery of sheer survival in order that they might seek a higher spirituality they once knew.

“The Great Instauration” (meaning the great restoration after decay, lapse or dilapidation) was his formula to change “the whole wide world.” He first conceived of the concept as a boy, and when he later crystallized it in his 1607 book by the same name, it launched the English Renaissance.

Over the years Bacon gathered around himself a group of writers who were responsible for almost all of the Elizabethan literature. Some of these were part of a “secret society” he called “The Knights of the Helmet,” which had as its goal the advancement of learning by expanding the English language and creating a new literature written not in Latin but in words that Englishmen could understand. Bacon also organized the translation of the King James Version of the Bible, determined that the common people should have the benefit of reading God’s Word for themselves.

Ciphers discovered in the 1890s in the original printings of the Shakespearean plays and in the works of Bacon and other Elizabethan authors reveal that Bacon wrote Shakespeare’s plays and that he was the son of Queen Elizabeth and Lord Leicester. His mother, however, fearful of an untimely loss of power, refused to acknowledge him as her heir.

Toward the end of his life Bacon was persecuted and went unrecognized for his manifold talents. He is said to have died in 1626, but some have claimed that he secretly lived in Europe for a time after that. Triumphing over circumstances that would have destroyed lesser men, his soul entered the ritual of the ascension from the Rakoczy Mansion, retreat of the Great Divine Director, on May 1, 1684.

Le Comte de Saint Germain

The Wonderman of Europe

► Main article: Wonderman of Europe

Desiring above all else to liberate God’s people, Saint Germain sought and was granted a dispensation from the Lords of Karma to return to earth in a physical body. He appeared as “le Comte de Saint Germain,” a “miraculous” gentleman who dazzled the courts of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Europe, where they called him “The Wonderman.”

He was an alchemist, scholar, linguist, poet, musician, artist, raconteur and diplomat admired throughout the courts of Europe for his adeptship. He was known for such feats as removing the flaws in diamonds and other precious stones and composing simultaneously a letter with one hand and poetry with the other. Voltaire described him as the “man who never dies and who knows everything.” The count is mentioned in the letters of Frederick the Great, Voltaire, Horace Walpole and Casanova, and in newspapers of the day.

Working behind the scenes, Saint Germain attempted to effect a smooth transition from monarchy to representative government and to prevent the bloodshed of the French Revolution. But his counsel was ignored. In a final attempt to unite Europe, he backed Napoleon, who misused the master’s power to his own demise.

But even prior to this, Saint Germain had turned his attention to the New World. He became the sponsoring master of the United States of America and of her first president, inspiring the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. He also inspired many of the labor-saving devices of the twentieth century to further his goal of liberating mankind from drudgery that they might devote themselves to the pursuit of God-realization.

Chohan of the Seventh Ray

In the latter part of the eighteenth century, Saint Germain received from the lady master Kuan Yin her office as chohan of the seventh ray—the ray of mercy and forgiveness and of sacred ceremony. And in the twentieth century, Saint Germain stepped forth once again to sponsor an outer activity of the Great White Brotherhood.

In the early 1930s, he contacted his “general in the field,” the reembodied George Washington, whom he trained as a messenger and who, under the pen name of Godfré Ray King, released the foundation of Saint Germain’s instruction for the New Age in the books Unveiled Mysteries, The Magic Presence and The “I AM” Discourses. In the late 1930s, the Goddess of Justice and other cosmic beings came forth from the Great Silence to assist Saint Germain in his work of bringing the teachings of the sacred fire to mankind and ushering in the golden age.

In 1961 Saint Germain contacted his embodied representative, the messenger Mark L. Prophet, and founded the Keepers of the Flame Fraternity in memory of the Ancient of Days and his first pupil, Lord Gautama—and the second, Lord Maitreya. His purpose was to quicken all who had originally come to earth with Sanat Kumara—to restore the memory of their ancient vow and reason for being on earth today: to serve as world teachers and ministering servants in their families, communities and nations at this critical hour of the turning of cycles.

Thus, Saint Germain recalled the original keepers of the flame to hearken to the voice of the Ancient of Days and to answer the call to reconsecrate their lives to the rekindling of the flame of life and the sacred fires of freedom in the souls of God’s people. Saint Germain is the Knight Commander of the Keepers of the Flame Fraternity.

Hierarch of the Aquarian Age

On May 1, 1954, Saint Germain received from Sanat Kumara the scepter of power and from the Master Jesus the crown of authority to direct the consciousness of mankind for this two-thousand-year period. This does not mean that the influence of the ascended master Jesus has receded. Rather, as World Teacher from the ascended level, his instruction and his radiation of the Christ consciousness to all mankind will be even more powerful and all-pervading than before, for it is the nature of the Divine continually to transcend itself. We live in an expanding universe—a universe that expands from the center of each individualized son (sun) of God.

This dispensation means that we are now entering a two-thousand-year period when, by invoking into our beings and worlds the violet transmuting flame, the God-energy that the human race has misqualified for thousands of years may now be purified and all mankind cut free from fear, lack, sin, sickness and death, and all may now walk in the light as God-free beings.

At this dawn of the age of Aquarius, Saint Germain has gone before the Lords of Karma and received the opportunity to release the knowledge of the violet flame outside of the inner retreats of the Great White Brotherhood, outside of the mystery schools. Saint Germain tells us of the benefits of invoking the violet flame:

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.

The violet flame has assisted in relationships within families. It has served to liberate some to balance old karmas and old hurts and to set individuals on their courses according to their vibration. It must be remembered that the violet flame does contain the flame of God-justice, and God-justice, of course, does contain the flame of the judgment; and thus the violet flame always comes as a two-edged sword to separate the Real from the unreal....

Blessed ones, it is impossible to enumerate exhaustively all of the benefits of the violet flame but there is indeed an alchemy that does take place within the personality. The violet flame goes after the schisms that cause psychological problems that go back to early childhood and previous incarnations and that have established such deep grooves within the consciousness that, in fact, they have been difficult to shake lifetime after lifetime.

Alchemy

► Main article: Alchemy

Saint Germain teaches the science of alchemy in his book Saint Germain On Alchemy. He uses the 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.

Retreats

► Main article: Royal Teton Retreat

► Main article: Cave of Symbols

Saint Germain maintains a focus in the golden etheric city over the Sahara Desert. He also teaches classes at the Royal Teton Retreat as well as his own physical/etheric retreat, the Cave of Symbols, in Table Mountain, Wyoming. In addition, he works out of the Great Divine Director’s focuses—the Cave of Light in India and the Rakoczy Mansion in Transylvania, where he presides as hierarch. More recently he has established a base in South America at the retreat of the God and Goddess Meru.

His electronic pattern is the Maltese cross; his fragrance, that of violets.
