Thoughtform for the year

Twice a year—at winter and summer solstice—the Lords of Karma convene in the council chambers of the Royal Teton Retreat to act upon the petitions of sons and daughters of God and to deliver the cosmic dispensations that come forth from the heart of Alpha and Omega in the Great Central Sun—allotments of energy for the enlightenment and progress of humanity. Each New Year’s Eve, the thoughtform for the year is released from the Silent Watcher of this solar system to the Lord of the World, Gautama Buddha, who in turn releases it to earth’s unascended evolutions from the Royal Teton Retreat. The thoughtform contains the keys to the outpicturing of the will of God for the planet for the coming twelve-month cycle.

Thoughtforms for different years

1962

The thoughtform for the year, which beloved Gautama described so well in his New Year’s address, is a golden “spinning wheel” releasing a golden thread of pure radiant energy to each lifestream to manifest as his apportioned substance. The nine spokes of the wheel are indicative of the seven members of the Karmic Board, and includes also beloved Gautama Lord of the World and blessed Saint Germain who are spokesmen for the Great White Brotherhood throughout the golden age. This golden thread, symbolical of each man esteeming his life energy as obedient substance, subjective with joy to God’s will, shall be used in the golden age to weave garments of immortality to endure as Christ accomplishment in a living memorial to God’s honor flame!

1963

The thoughtform for the year, beloved ones, is quite simple and yet beautiful. The thoughtform for this year, beloved ones, consists of three overlapping stars. These stars, beloved ones, are six-pointed stars. The star in the background is blue, representing the will of God; the next star is yellow, or golden, representing the illumination of God; and the smaller star is the pink star, representing the love of God. This is a part of the thoughtform.

And superimposed upon the thoughtform, radiating from the very center, are two secret rays. Directed downward in golden color, they form an inverted V. Upward, the two secret rays are directed; and therefore a cross, such as the Roman numeral X, is formed. To the right, two more secret rays go forth—and to the left. And therefore, there is superimposed upon this beautiful three-part star, composing three stars in one symbol, four Vs representing the cardinal points of the compass—the North, the East, the West, and the South.

The meaning of this symbol is quite clear: that it is in the balance of the will of God, the love of God, and the wisdom of God that mankind shall attain their victory, and that this balance is sent the world around by the Brotherhood to bring the victory of immortal love, wisdom, and intelligence into the hearts of men, that those waiting hearts may receive the fullness of that for which they have called.

1964

At our meeting in the Grand Teton this year and the occasion of the glorious visit of the Seven Holy Kumaras, the thoughtform for the year was released as a golden anvil. Wherever this thoughtform is used it is our suggestion that the brightest possible gold be employed in creating it. We also suggest that the word freedom be placed above it, denoting that mankind’s chains may be broken upon an anvil of freedom and as a reminder that once every form of tyranny and slavery have been abolished, responsibility does not thereupon cease; on the contrary, that all must strive together in the great smithy forge of life through their own intelligently directed efforts and through the great God-design to hammer out upon the great anvil of freedom, which is truly a golden anvil of illumined action, every necessary armor of righteousness, every necessary adornment and utensil of service, every right idea, and every right action.

The possibilities in this thoughtform seem endless but it is our desire, especially in view of the fact that it will be some time before the words of our New Year’s Eve address are released in print, that we, through the expression of this Pearl of Wisdom, shall bring to your attention this mighty thoughtform. The year has begun with a special impetus of beloved Mother Mary who is serving with El Morya to bring forth a beautiful manifestation of the virgin good will of God in a cosmic and universal action for the freedom of both the individual and the earth.

Long ago a gaunt figure, surveying the battlefields of Gettysburg, uttered these well-remembered words—“The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.” Beloved ones, may I from Shamballa remind you of the forerunners of progress who have dedicated themselves to the service of mankind and the holy cause of Godliness. Let everyone who would decipher the keynote for this year see it as an anvil of service, a golden anvil, whereupon mighty benefactions shall be fashioned for the good of the world and the freedom of all men. As we move forward toward peace with caution exercised on every hand and faith in God in whom we trust, let all persevere so the divine intent shall gleam more brightly.

1965

And now behold, I see a golden scroll descending from God out of heaven and upon it there is one word and the word is PEACE, and this is also written in gold. And now the hand of an angel adds two very small words beneath—With Honor. And I see the cosmic honor flame of God blazing from afar as a candle in the dark that passes through the universe and causes life to start, to regenerate, to purify, to be all that he is and all that I am and all that you are in the great divine reality of your being.

1966

The thoughtform for the year is a hand—a right hand from above, holding a golden key with three notches in the key and on the side of the key, the letters L-O-V-E—LOVE.

From on high, God’s hand holds the key, which is Love, by which all doors may open to every devotee of the Most High. Love is the key that opens every door, and if the doors of the hearts of men are to respond to God, it must be by a great outpouring of divine love this year. And this is the attitude of wisdom. Let him who has an ear to hear, hear what the Spirit saith unto all men.

Love seeks not herself, but to bestow upon the beloved every gracious gift. And the simplicity of love in the childlike way is the key to mankind’s victory—to mankind’s victory that can open every door.

Therefore, the three notches are defined as making this key capable of opening the doors below in the realm of the material, the doors of mind, and the doors of memory to all that Love can bestow and all that Love is and all that God would make mankind to be.

These simple statements are charged with the essence of man’s freedom. Without these statements in action, mankind can but come to naught; and with these statements in action, Love then becomes the key that bestows the grace of heaven upon earth in every age.

1967

The thoughtform for the year is a beautiful golden replica of the planetary body Earth. And through the axis thereof and actually manifesting on the outer periphery of that Earth is the stalk of a beautiful golden calla lily—the calla lily rising up to what is known as the North Pole and extending its influences not only over the Earth and its people but over the immediate area of outer space surrounding your world, the area that has been penetrated by numerous vehicles which the mankind of Earth have sent to outer space as a probe and experiment for interplanetary travel.

We ask that this holy image of cosmic purity—for above the lily are the golden Old English letters entitled “God-Purity.” The precious calla lily has within it the amrita, the nectar of the holy ones who have attained their victory upon every planet in this system of worlds and are, spiritually speaking, appointed by divine decree to be lords of the individual worlds of the planetary bodies of this system. And therefore, the radiance and momentum of each such a one is within this calla-lily cup, this golden vessel of the temple from on high.

And purity, even God-purity, is the salvation of the Earth throughout the twelve-month cycle to come. And it is the means of the purification of the temple of each individual’s world and the universal purification of all upon this planetary body to whom renewed hope then is given that purity and purification are possibilities to every man.

1968

The pages have delivered to us the veil, and the veil is being withdrawn from the descending thoughtform of the year [1968]. It is simple and beautiful and complete, and I reverence it.

It is simply a golden sun with the word UNO engraven upon it out of golden substance and filling it from zenith unto the base—UNO, flowing out, with the U cupped as a gentle cup and tilted slightly to the right, coming down in a circular fashion toward the bottom, and then an N rising up to the top, and to the far right an O. UNO—unity in the heart of the sun.

There is no complication here. How can men find fault with it or speak of it disparagingly? For it speaks of the hour when creation was one and of the hour when it shall be again.

1969

The chalice descends, and in it is the thoughtform for the year [1969]. It is the Ark of the Covenant. It is simple. It was formed long ago. And now we see it in its preserved and beauteous state, inlaid with gold and having upon its top the covering cherubim.

We see the light of the Ark of the Covenant in all of its blazing brilliance, the Shekinah glory. And this ancient symbol of Israel and of the promise speaks to men of their rights to make a covenant with God and to know that this Divine One will also place the Tablets of the Law within the ark of their heart. Is it not written, “I will write my laws in your hearts and minds, in your hearts and minds will I write them, saith the Lord”?

Let no one be disappointed at this thoughtform. For the Lords that have delivered it unto us have great faith that, although it is a symbol old, it is a symbol of particular meaning for this year of peril. For do not men now more than ever need to make a covenant with God? And if that covenant be with your own beloved I AM Presence, is it not then sealed in the wholeness of truth and the faith that you bear in your heart? Does it not relate to the identity of each one of you? Does it not bring you joy to know that in your heart this thoughtform can itself lodge and bring you peace?

You can feel, in the hidden recesses of your heart within, the presence of this ark—an ark of safety, an ark of light, a place to receive the commandments of God, that they themselves, being written there, may speak out from your heart with the authority of the Law from Zion. For did I not correctly apprehend him when he said, “Zion is my holy mount and I will dwell therein forever”? Shall not the joy of Zion, then, run throughout the earth, and the great four rivers themselves in their confluence comment upon the restoration of the consciousness of Eden?

1975

Now comes the sphere sealed with the light of the Ancient of Days, sealed with the kiss of Sanat Kumara. And as the golden ball of the year descends into this forcefield, there is a bursting of the ball, and into the cup of consciousness descends the thoughtform for the year 1975—a multifaceted jewel focusing the flame of the mind of God, a gem that is not of this world; nor does it bear resemblance to the crystals of this plane. In the center of the jewel is that flame of the mind of God.

And this is the jewel that is worn around the neck of the Cosmic Virgin, the Virgin One passing through the stars, the stars passing through the body of the Mother. And so we behold the Divine Mother keeping the flame of the mind of God for the children of God.

This jewel is anchored in the etheric plane of the planet at the retreat at Shamballa. And the fire of God’s mind focused therein will be for the quickening of the consciousness of mankind in the way of truth and the restoration of balance, of vision infusing the mind with that love that enables life to impart a gnosis of the Logos.

It is necessary that in this year and in the years to come there be a redemption of the fires of the mind of mankind. And ultimately this focus foretells the day when all mankind shall return to the oneness of the mind of God, which they knew before the descent into carnality. Reaching for the mind of God, every soul upon earth will have a quickening. And those who make the call will have an increase of faculties, of intelligence, of the will to expand the mind to include the facets and dimensions of the cosmic mind.

Now, then, we shall see how this gift of God from on high will increase the capacity of millions to carry the flame of God. How gracious is our LORD! How gracious is Alpha and Omega! How wondrous is opportunity!

I AM privileged to be aware of selfhood as Godhood. I AM called the Enlightened One. And so I say, be enlightened. Be filled with the light of the mind of Buddha. So now, the fires which he has so graciously anchored in my mind I transfer to all who will receive them for the burning, for the consuming, for the clearing of the way. For you see, in this thoughtform for the year, in this jewel (as with any other thoughtform), there is the capacity to multiply again and again that forcefield.

As this jewel is placed in Shamballa, so you may have placed within your own mind—if you will prepare, if you will be purged by the fires of my holy offering—a replica of the jewel of the flame, of the action of cosmic consciousness.

The replica of the jewel, the image fair, is a delicate forcefield, a forcefield that may be broken by misuse. Therefore call and then call again for the reinforcement of the jewel of the mind of God in the center of the head between the third eye and the crown chakra.

So you see how God Almighty, cosmic hierarchies, and cosmic councils are determined that mankind should experience a rebirth through the quickening, the rejuvenation, the cosmic action of the mind of God.

1976

Now the angels of Sanat Kumara, angels from out the Great Central Sun, angels of cosmos are winging their way carrying the scroll, the sacred scroll, on which is written the thoughtform for the year 1976. They place it in my hands and I unroll the sacred scroll. And there is given to Terra in this year a focus of the [Diamond heart|[Diamond Heart]] of Mary, the Diamond Heart of the Divine Mother. And this focus is the diamond pin which the Divine Mother has worn upon her breast for centuries and centuries. It is a diamond pin which you have seen as you have come to the altar of the Divine Mother even thousands and tens of thousands of years ago. In your eye, your very eye, there is a record of this diamond pin which you have seen. And therefore, it is a sign of home, of Mother’s love, of her caress, of her heart. And it will be a sign to all of the children of Terra that the Mother is nigh.

She comes at first veiled, and her children know her by her signs—her voice, her laughter, her joy, her sorrow, her understanding, her silence and her silent glow. But most of all, the children will remember that when they were held in the arms of Mother and they opened their eyes, they saw that diamond pin shining, reflecting the threefold flame of her heart. And as they closed their eyes again to sleep the sleep of love and dream the dream of the One, they were comforted in that matrix of the Diamond Heart of Mother ray.

So it is enshrined for the opening of the heart chakras, for souls to rise to the level of the heart so that I can take them to the level of the crown. Just as the Holy Kumaras and the Ancient of Days released the electrode of the mind of God, so we release this electrode for the stirring of the hearts of a people to the memory of Mother, and they will follow that memory to her teaching. And when they come to her teaching, they will find me there and I will raise them to the enlightenment of Father.

Now, take the lessons of the Buddha and the Mother, and the meditations. Take the mantras, take the songs, take the love, take the truth, take the identity of your Real Self, and make them live. Make them live! Make them live, my children! And you, too, shall live!

1977

And now the angels of the Ancient of Days draw nigh. The angels of the Ancient of Days come forth. And the thoughtform for the year 1977 is upon us. Now there is the opening, the unwrapping of a very large box. The angels have brought and placed before the Buddha the gift of the Christ Mass. They kneel; they remove the wrappings and the ribbon. They remove the lid from the box and they place before me this thoughtform: A golden eagle from the God Star Sirius—the golden eagle that is the archetype of the deliverance of the sons and daughters of God that has ever been the symbol and the signet of Sirius and of the nations sponsored by the Four and Twenty Elders.

It is the golden eagle of America. It is the symbol of redemption. And so the gathering together of the eagles is the great gathering of those who are called and have been called of old for this hour of the victory.

And coming forth from the heart of this eagle is a diamond light. It is a diamond that is turning, and the light of the diamond within that heart is for the reflection of the light of cosmic spheres. Coming forth, then, out of that diamond is the very consciousness of the heart of God. In that heart is the flame of the Trinity that manifests.

Now is the return to honor, to the honor and the ritual of the Court of the Sacred Fire, after which the court of Camelot was molded. And so the mighty eagle that comes from Sirius, the golden focus of the return to the golden age and the age of the standard of gold, shall be in the heart of the earth and in the heart of the people. It shall be hovering without and within this sphere. As I am a thousand million Buddhas everywhere I am, so a thousand million golden eagles come as the multiplication of the gift by the Spirit of the living God descends now, even into your own heart’s chalice.

This is the gift of the thoughtform for the year 1977. It is that the Lord God has decided to place in the hearts of lightbearers that replica of the golden eagle that you might be walking, living emissaries of Sirius, that you might be serious in your calling, that you might bow to the Lords of Flame each day, Sanat Kumara, the Ancient of Days, and the Holy Kumaras and the Four and Twenty Elders and the four angels and the four beasts who are the forcefields of cosmic consciousness in the God Star.

God wills to live on earth, in earth this year in a very peculiar fashion through a very peculiar and precious people. And therefore, God places himself as a golden eagle. And so you see, when you walk the earth, should someone chance to notice that you are wearing a golden eagle in your heart, they will never suspect that it is God. And therefore, the merriment and the joy, the concealing within the eagle of the real and lively living flame of the Almighty One.

1979

Angels from out the Central Sun are descending now with the thoughtform for the year 1979. They deliver to me that symbol which is to be the symbol of light and of the lowering of the light from Alpha and Omega to evolutions of earth in this year. Now with the opening and the unveiling of the emblem, you will come to understand your great tie to the God Star, Sirius, and even the symbol of the eagle.

It is a flag of the United States of America and you see it now in its inner design. You see the stripes, and the red ones have become the gold of the blood of Christ that is the liquid consciousness of Spirit. And you see the white as the energy of Omega, Mother, purity, path of initiation and ascension. The thirteen stripes in gold and white now are the understanding of your wholeness in Alpha and Omega and the path ahead of your initiation in purity by enlightenment. Only those who are enlightened by the light of Alpha can be wholly pure in Omega.

These thirteen bands are thirteen rays of the return of the twelve tribes and the thirteenth tribe of the priesthood. That priesthood has become the Order of Melchizedek manifesting the Christ consciousness in the center of the circle.

As you gaze upon the white stars, you will see that each star is the sign of the coming of a great avatar into your midst—fifty of these avatars destined to be born in this year if you will allow it. The LORD God has said to me, I will allow it. I will find the home of light and the parents for these souls. Their starry bodies will be magnets of the Central Sun—magnifying the divine plan, the teaching, the love, the compassion, the mercy, the forgiveness—each one a freedom star, each one a messenger unto the fifty states. The white upon the blue is the T’ai Chi, Alpha/Omega, Spirit becoming Matter, Matter becoming Spirit.

And now in cosmic spheres, you see in another level of that emblem a mighty eagle. And as you look closely you see the formation of angels of Surya coming to earth to reinforce your ranks.

The Great White Brotherhood, in the name of the I AM THAT I AM, raises the Old Glory unto the new glory of the New Jerusalem, founded in this nation, sealed within the heart of our messenger and our chelas. Long may it wave. And may it be the emblem that is the sign and the standard for the rallying of the forces of light.

It is returned to you after hundreds of thousands of years. For this, the original standard, is that with which souls of light went forth to claim an earth and an evolution for the victory and to one day come to these shores known as the Promised Land. For here in America, you were told by Alpha and Omega, every promise of God to your soul would be fulfilled if your free will would confirm that promise. And so America has been a land of hope and of dreams and of opportunity and of fulfillment for many.

1990

Blessed ones, a being of Light from the Central Sun does deliver to me the thoughtform for the year 1990. It is the thoughtform not only for this year but for this decade and some cycles beyond.

This thoughtform, beloved, is truly a cosmic masterpiece! For this being does unveil something that there are not words in the English language to describe. It is a device, shall we say, that does illustrate in three and four dimensions, through a great sphere, every step of transformation through which the earth body and its evolutions must pass in order to come to the New Day when the resurrection flame may once again be the option of the embodied Lightbearers.

Blessed ones, increment by increment of change may be dialed on this great sphere that is a many-dimensional map of the earth body, showing the earth from the very center to extended levels of the atmosphere and beyond into that space that is around the planet. Thus, by using this very complex computer, if you would call it that, you may dial to the present moment, to any month or day of the year of this period and see what the light requires as transmutation, as transfiguration, as change and see how the earth does respond to that step-up and what, then, may be the consequences.

Since the element of free will is at hand, one can see what would be the difference if certain percentages of the lifewaves of earth did embody the flames of God, how this would make the difference in what would transpire or what would be the power of chemicalization and the abruptness or the smoothness [of the process]. Therefore you may dial in the consequences of many choices [and know by a projection into the future exactly what the consequences of humanity’s exercise of free will might be].

This is the type of instrument that one would see in the retreat of Cuzco or in the God Star, Sirius. Now it is placed within the retreat of Cuzco and, as you know, only Ascended Masters frequent this retreat. It is there for the use of the Ascended Masters in guiding the humanity and the evolutions of this planet through their course. But its very presence in the earth means, beloved, that by meditation, by inner attunement, you may gain an inner awareness of these cycles.

Lend yourselves to them, lend your decrees to them and see how you can be instrumental in the very best outcome that can be admitted. It is a thoughtform, beloved, immensely useful to the entire Spirit of the Great White Brotherhood and hence to you as chelas of the Ascended Masters.

Powerful angels of Light of Surya transport this instrument to the location prepared for it in Cuzco’s retreat. From time to time you will receive dictations giving you the awareness of where the planet is in this process of transformation.
