[[File:0000144 poster-saint-germain-sindelar-1403 600.jpeg|thumb|Vzestoupený Mistr Saint Germain]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Saint Germain''' je [[Special:MyLanguage/chohan|čohanem]] sedmého paprsku. Spolu se svým  [[Special:MyLanguage/twin flame|dvojplamenem]],vzestoupenou Paní Mistryní [[Special:MyLanguage/Portia|Portií]], Bohyní Spravedlnosti, je hierarchou věku [[Special:MyLanguage/Aquarian age|Vodnáře]]. On je velkým patronem plamene svobody, zatímco Portia je patronkou plamene spravedlnosti. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain je známý jako diplomat, vyjadřující božské vlastnosti důstojnosti, elegance, ušlechtilosti, vyrovnanosti a opravdového státníctva prostřednictvím všech, kdo vzývají sedmý paprsek. Je členem rodu Rákóczyů, založeného Velkým Božským Ředitelem [[Special:MyLanguage/Great Divine Director|Velkým Božským Ředitelem]], v jehož transylvánském sídle [[Special:MyLanguage/Rakoczy Mansion|Rákóczyho zámek|Transylvánské sídlo]] je v současné době ukotven [[Special:MyLanguage/violet flame|fialový plamen]] svobody.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jméno ''Saint Germain'' pochází z latinského ''Sanctus Germanus'', což znamená jednoduše “Svatý Bratr.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;His_mission&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
== Jeho poslání ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Každý dvoutisíciletý cyklus spadá pod jeden ze sedmi paprsků. [[Special:MyLanguage/Jesus|Ježíš]], jakožto chohan šestého paprsku, zastával úřad hierarchy věku během posledních 2000 let. 1. května 1954 byli Saint Germain a Portia korunováni jako ředitelé pro nadcházející cyklus sedmého paprsku. Svoboda a spravedlnost jsou jin a jang sedmého paprsku Vodnáře a spolu s milosrdenstvím poskytují základ pro všechny ostatní Boží vlastnosti, které se mají projevit v této sedmé [[Special:MyLanguage/dispensation|dispensaci]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain and Portia deliver to the people of God the dispensation for the seventh age and the seventh ray—the [[violet ray]] of freedom, justice, mercy, [[alchemy]] and sacred ritual—a new lifewave, a new civilization, a new energy.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As chohan, or lord, of the seventh ray, Saint Germain initiates our souls in the science and ritual of [[transmutation]] through the violet flame. He is the seventh angel prophesied in Revelation 10:7 who comes to sponsor the finishing of the mystery of God “as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain says:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am an ascended being, but it has not ever been thus. Not once or twice but for many incarnations I walked the earth as you now do, confined to mortal frame and the limitations of dimensional existence. I was on [[Lemuria]] and I was on [[Atlantis]]. 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I have seen the choices, and I have chosen. By right choices man and woman establish their position in hierarchy. By choosing to be free in the magnificent will of God, I won my freedom from that mortal round of incarnations and justifications of an existence outside the One. I won my freedom by that flame, that keynote of the Aquarian cycle traced by alchemists of old, that purple elixir the saints do hold....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You are mortal. I am immortal. The only difference between us is that I have chosen to be free, and you have yet to make the choice. We have the same potential, the same resources, the same connection to the One. I have taken mine to forge a God-identity. For long ago, the still small voice within spoke the fiat of Alpha and the living God: “Children of the One, forge your God-identity.” And in the stillness of the night, I heard the call and I answered, “I will!” And when I said, “I will,” all of cosmos echoed, “I will!” The will to be summons the vastness of the potential of being....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am Saint Germain, and I have come to claim your soul and the fires of your heart for the victory of the Aquarian age. I have set the pattern for your soul’s [[initiation]].... I am on the path of freedom. Take that path, and you will find me there. I am your teacher if you will have me.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “I Have Chosen to Be Free,” {{POWref|18|30}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

=== Ruler of a golden-age civilization ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Golden age in the Sahara Desert}}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Over fifty thousand years ago, Saint Germain was the ruler of a golden-age civilization in a fertile country where the Sahara Desert now is. As king-emperor, Saint Germain was a master of the ancient wisdom and of the knowledge of the Matter spheres, and the people looked to him as the standard for their own emerging Godhood. His empire reached a height of beauty, symmetry and perfection unexceeded in the physical octave.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As the people of this civilization became more interested in the pleasures of the senses than in the larger creative plan of the Great God Self, a cosmic council instructed the ruler to withdraw from his empire; henceforth their karma would be their guru. The king held a great banquet for his councillors and public servants. His 576 guests each received a crystal goblet filled with an elixir that was “pure electronic essence.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This elixir was Saint Germain’s gift of soul-protection to them so that when their opportunity would come again in the age of Aquarius to bring back that golden-age civilization, they would remember their I AM Presence and they would become a sign to all people that God can and shall dwell with his people when they make their minds and hearts and souls a fitting habitation for his Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
During the banquet a cosmic master, identifying himself solely by the word Victory upon his brow, addressed the assembly. He warned the people of the crisis they had brought upon themselves by their faithlessness, rebuked them for their neglect of their Great God Source, and prophesied that the empire would come under the rule of a visiting prince who would be seeking to marry the king’s daughter. The king and his family withdrew seven days later to the golden-etheric city counterpart of the civilization. The prince arrived the next day and took over without opposition.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== High priest on Atlantis ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As high priest of the Violet Flame Temple on the mainland of [[Atlantis]] thirteen thousand years ago, Saint Germain sustained by his invocations and his causal body a pillar of fire, a veritable fountain of violet singing flame, which magnetized people from near and far who came to be set free from every binding condition of body, mind and soul. This they achieved by self-effort through the offering of invocations and the practice of seventh-ray rituals to the sacred fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Those who officiated at the altar of the Violet Flame Temple were schooled in the universal priesthood of the [[Order of Melchizedek]] at Lord [[Zadkiel]]’s retreat, the [[Temple of Purification]], which stood where the island of Cuba now is. This priesthood combines the perfect religion and the perfect science. It was here that both Saint Germain and [[Jesus]] received the anointing, spoken by Zadkiel himself: “Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Prior to the sinking of Atlantis, while [[Noah]] was yet building his ark and warning the people of [[The Flood|the great Flood]] to come, the Great Divine Director called Saint Germain and a few faithful priests to transport the flame of freedom from the Temple of Purification to a place of safety in the Carpathian foothills in Transylvania. Here they carried on the sacred ritual of expanding the fires of freedom even while mankind’s karma was being exacted by divine decree.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In succeeding embodiments, Saint Germain and his followers, under the guidance of the Great Divine Director, rediscovered the flame and continued to guard the shrine. Later, the Great Divine Director, assisted by his disciple, established a retreat at the site of the flame and founded the House of Rakoczy, the royal house of Hungary.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In the eleventh century &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;B&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;C&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;., Saint Germain was embodied as the prophet Samuel. He was an outstanding religious leader in a time of great apostasy, serving as the last of Israel’s judges and the first of her prophets. In those days the judges did not simply arbitrate disputes; they were charismatic leaders who were believed to have direct access to God and who could rally the tribes of Israel against oppressors.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Samuel was the messenger of God’s liberation of the seed of [[Abraham]] from bondage to the corrupt priests, the sons of Eli, and from the Philistines, who had slaughtered the Israelites in battle. He is traditionally named alongside [[Moses]] as a great intercessor. When the nation faced continuing threats from the Philistines, he courageously led the people in a spiritual revival, exhorting them to “return unto the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; with all your hearts” and to “put away the strange gods.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 7:3.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The people repented and beseeched Samuel not to cease calling upon the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; to save them. As he was praying and offering sacrifices, a violent thunderstorm was unleashed, allowing the Israelites to overtake their enemies. The Philistines never rose again in the days of Samuel.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The prophet spent the rest of his life administering justice throughout the land. When he grew old, he appointed his sons to be judges over Israel; but they were corrupt and the people demanded that Samuel give them “a king to judge us like all the nations.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:5.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Deeply grieved, he prayed to the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; and received the direction that he must carry out the mandate of the people. The L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; told him, “They have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:7.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. But when Saul proved to be an unfaithful servant, Samuel pronounced the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;’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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Alban has been revered by the people of the Isles since his death in &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain worked from inner planes as the Master Teacher behind the Neoplatonists. He inspired the Greek philosopher Proclus (c. &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Thomas Whittaker, ''The Neo-Platonists: A Study in the History of Hellenism'', 2d ed. (Cambridge:  Cambridge University Press, 1928), p. 165.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Victor Cousin and Thomas Taylor, trans., ''Two Treatises of Proclus, The Platonic Successor'' (London: n.p., 1833), p. vi.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Henry Thomas and Dana Lee Thomas, ''Living Biographies of Great Scientists'' (Garden City, N.Y.: Nelson Doubleday, 1941), p. 15.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; he said. Bacon eventually left his position as a lecturer at the University of Paris and entered the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;David Wallechinsky, Amy Wallace and Irving Wallace, ''The Book of Predictions'' (New York: William Morrow and Co., 1980), p. 346.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Clements R. Markham, ''Life of Christopher Columbus'' (London: George Philip and Son, 1892), pp. 207–8.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;''Encyclopaedia Britannica'', 15th ed., s.v. “Columbus, Christopher.”&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
“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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[Bible translations|King James Version of the Bible]], determined that the common people should have the benefit of reading God’s Word for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;See {{TSC}}.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; His mother, however, fearful of an untimely loss of power, refused to acknowledge him as her heir.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Voltaire, ''Œuvres'', Lettre cxviii, ed. Beuchot, lviii, p. 360, quoted in Isabel Cooper-Oakley, ''The Count of Saint Germain'' (Blauvelt, N.Y.: Rudolf Steiner Publications, 1970), p. 96.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The count is mentioned in the letters of Frederick the Great, Voltaire, Horace Walpole and Casanova, and in newspapers of the day.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[George Washington|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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 being]]s 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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 school]]s. Saint Germain tells us of the benefits of invoking the violet flame:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “Keep My Purple Heart,” {{POWref|31|72}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
'''Saint Germain''' je [[čohanem]] sedmého paprsku. Spolu se svým  [[dvojplamenem]],vzestoupenou paní mistryní [[Portií]], Bohyní Spravedlnosti, je hierarchou věku [[Vodnáře]]. On je velkým patronem plamene svobody, zatímco Portia je patronkou plamene spravedlnosti. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain je známý jako diplomat, vyjadřující božské vlastnosti důstojnosti, elegance, ušlechtilosti, vyrovnanosti a opravdového státníctva prostřednictvím všech, kdo vzývají sedmý paprsek. Je členem rodu Rákóczyů, založeného Velkým Božským Ředitelem [[Special:MyLanguage/Great Divine Director|Velkým Božským Ředitelem]], v jehož transylvánském sídle [[Special:MyLanguage/Rakoczy Mansion|Rákóczyho zámek|Transylvánské sídlo]] je v současné době ukotven [[Special:MyLanguage/violet flame|fialový plamen]] svobody.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jméno ''Saint Germain'' pochází z latinského ''Sanctus Germanus'', což znamená jednoduše “Svatý Bratr.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;His_mission&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
== Jeho poslání ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Každý dvoutisíciletý cyklus spadá pod jeden ze sedmi paprsků. [[Special:MyLanguage/Jesus|Ježíš]], jakožto chohan šestého paprsku, zastával úřad hierarchy věku během posledních 2000 let. 1. května 1954 byli Saint Germain a Portia korunováni jako ředitelé pro nadcházející cyklus sedmého paprsku. Svoboda a spravedlnost jsou jin a jang sedmého paprsku Vodnáře a spolu s milosrdenstvím poskytují základ pro všechny ostatní Boží vlastnosti, které se mají projevit v této sedmé [[Special:MyLanguage/dispensation|dispensaci]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain and Portia deliver to the people of God the dispensation for the seventh age and the seventh ray—the [[violet ray]] of freedom, justice, mercy, [[alchemy]] and sacred ritual—a new lifewave, a new civilization, a new energy.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As chohan, or lord, of the seventh ray, Saint Germain initiates our souls in the science and ritual of [[transmutation]] through the violet flame. He is the seventh angel prophesied in Revelation 10:7 who comes to sponsor the finishing of the mystery of God “as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain says:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am an ascended being, but it has not ever been thus. Not once or twice but for many incarnations I walked the earth as you now do, confined to mortal frame and the limitations of dimensional existence. I was on [[Lemuria]] and I was on [[Atlantis]]. 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I have seen the choices, and I have chosen. By right choices man and woman establish their position in hierarchy. By choosing to be free in the magnificent will of God, I won my freedom from that mortal round of incarnations and justifications of an existence outside the One. I won my freedom by that flame, that keynote of the Aquarian cycle traced by alchemists of old, that purple elixir the saints do hold....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You are mortal. I am immortal. The only difference between us is that I have chosen to be free, and you have yet to make the choice. We have the same potential, the same resources, the same connection to the One. I have taken mine to forge a God-identity. For long ago, the still small voice within spoke the fiat of Alpha and the living God: “Children of the One, forge your God-identity.” And in the stillness of the night, I heard the call and I answered, “I will!” And when I said, “I will,” all of cosmos echoed, “I will!” The will to be summons the vastness of the potential of being....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am Saint Germain, and I have come to claim your soul and the fires of your heart for the victory of the Aquarian age. I have set the pattern for your soul’s [[initiation]].... I am on the path of freedom. Take that path, and you will find me there. I am your teacher if you will have me.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “I Have Chosen to Be Free,” {{POWref|18|30}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Over fifty thousand years ago, Saint Germain was the ruler of a golden-age civilization in a fertile country where the Sahara Desert now is. As king-emperor, Saint Germain was a master of the ancient wisdom and of the knowledge of the Matter spheres, and the people looked to him as the standard for their own emerging Godhood. His empire reached a height of beauty, symmetry and perfection unexceeded in the physical octave.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As the people of this civilization became more interested in the pleasures of the senses than in the larger creative plan of the Great God Self, a cosmic council instructed the ruler to withdraw from his empire; henceforth their karma would be their guru. The king held a great banquet for his councillors and public servants. His 576 guests each received a crystal goblet filled with an elixir that was “pure electronic essence.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This elixir was Saint Germain’s gift of soul-protection to them so that when their opportunity would come again in the age of Aquarius to bring back that golden-age civilization, they would remember their I AM Presence and they would become a sign to all people that God can and shall dwell with his people when they make their minds and hearts and souls a fitting habitation for his Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
During the banquet a cosmic master, identifying himself solely by the word Victory upon his brow, addressed the assembly. He warned the people of the crisis they had brought upon themselves by their faithlessness, rebuked them for their neglect of their Great God Source, and prophesied that the empire would come under the rule of a visiting prince who would be seeking to marry the king’s daughter. The king and his family withdrew seven days later to the golden-etheric city counterpart of the civilization. The prince arrived the next day and took over without opposition.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== High priest on Atlantis ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As high priest of the Violet Flame Temple on the mainland of [[Atlantis]] thirteen thousand years ago, Saint Germain sustained by his invocations and his causal body a pillar of fire, a veritable fountain of violet singing flame, which magnetized people from near and far who came to be set free from every binding condition of body, mind and soul. This they achieved by self-effort through the offering of invocations and the practice of seventh-ray rituals to the sacred fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Those who officiated at the altar of the Violet Flame Temple were schooled in the universal priesthood of the [[Order of Melchizedek]] at Lord [[Zadkiel]]’s retreat, the [[Temple of Purification]], which stood where the island of Cuba now is. This priesthood combines the perfect religion and the perfect science. It was here that both Saint Germain and [[Jesus]] received the anointing, spoken by Zadkiel himself: “Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Prior to the sinking of Atlantis, while [[Noah]] was yet building his ark and warning the people of [[The Flood|the great Flood]] to come, the Great Divine Director called Saint Germain and a few faithful priests to transport the flame of freedom from the Temple of Purification to a place of safety in the Carpathian foothills in Transylvania. Here they carried on the sacred ritual of expanding the fires of freedom even while mankind’s karma was being exacted by divine decree.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In succeeding embodiments, Saint Germain and his followers, under the guidance of the Great Divine Director, rediscovered the flame and continued to guard the shrine. Later, the Great Divine Director, assisted by his disciple, established a retreat at the site of the flame and founded the House of Rakoczy, the royal house of Hungary.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In the eleventh century &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;B&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;C&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;., Saint Germain was embodied as the prophet Samuel. He was an outstanding religious leader in a time of great apostasy, serving as the last of Israel’s judges and the first of her prophets. In those days the judges did not simply arbitrate disputes; they were charismatic leaders who were believed to have direct access to God and who could rally the tribes of Israel against oppressors.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Samuel was the messenger of God’s liberation of the seed of [[Abraham]] from bondage to the corrupt priests, the sons of Eli, and from the Philistines, who had slaughtered the Israelites in battle. He is traditionally named alongside [[Moses]] as a great intercessor. When the nation faced continuing threats from the Philistines, he courageously led the people in a spiritual revival, exhorting them to “return unto the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; with all your hearts” and to “put away the strange gods.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 7:3.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The people repented and beseeched Samuel not to cease calling upon the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; to save them. As he was praying and offering sacrifices, a violent thunderstorm was unleashed, allowing the Israelites to overtake their enemies. The Philistines never rose again in the days of Samuel.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The prophet spent the rest of his life administering justice throughout the land. When he grew old, he appointed his sons to be judges over Israel; but they were corrupt and the people demanded that Samuel give them “a king to judge us like all the nations.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:5.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Deeply grieved, he prayed to the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; and received the direction that he must carry out the mandate of the people. The L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; told him, “They have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:7.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. But when Saul proved to be an unfaithful servant, Samuel pronounced the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;’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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Alban has been revered by the people of the Isles since his death in &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;

Saint Germain worked from inner planes as the Master Teacher behind the Neoplatonists. He inspired the Greek philosopher Proclus (c. &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Thomas Whittaker, ''The Neo-Platonists: A Study in the History of Hellenism'', 2d ed. (Cambridge:  Cambridge University Press, 1928), p. 165.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Victor Cousin and Thomas Taylor, trans., ''Two Treatises of Proclus, The Platonic Successor'' (London: n.p., 1833), p. vi.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Henry Thomas and Dana Lee Thomas, ''Living Biographies of Great Scientists'' (Garden City, N.Y.: Nelson Doubleday, 1941), p. 15.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; he said. Bacon eventually left his position as a lecturer at the University of Paris and entered the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;David Wallechinsky, Amy Wallace and Irving Wallace, ''The Book of Predictions'' (New York: William Morrow and Co., 1980), p. 346.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Clements R. Markham, ''Life of Christopher Columbus'' (London: George Philip and Son, 1892), pp. 207–8.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;''Encyclopaedia Britannica'', 15th ed., s.v. “Columbus, Christopher.”&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
“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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[Bible translations|King James Version of the Bible]], determined that the common people should have the benefit of reading God’s Word for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;See {{TSC}}.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; His mother, however, fearful of an untimely loss of power, refused to acknowledge him as her heir.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Voltaire, ''Œuvres'', Lettre cxviii, ed. Beuchot, lviii, p. 360, quoted in Isabel Cooper-Oakley, ''The Count of Saint Germain'' (Blauvelt, N.Y.: Rudolf Steiner Publications, 1970), p. 96.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The count is mentioned in the letters of Frederick the Great, Voltaire, Horace Walpole and Casanova, and in newspapers of the day.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[George Washington|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.&lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 being]]s 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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 school]]s. Saint Germain tells us of the benefits of invoking the violet flame:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “Keep My Purple Heart,” {{POWref|31|72}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
'''Saint Germain''' je [[čohanem]] sedmého paprsku. Spolu se svým  [[dvojplamenem]],vzestoupenou paní mistryní [[Portií]], Bohyní Spravedlnosti, je hierarchou věku [[Vodnáře]]. On je velkým patronem plamene svobody, zatímco Portia je patronkou plamene spravedlnosti. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain je známý jako diplomat, vyjadřující božské vlastnosti důstojnosti, elegance, ušlechtilosti, vyrovnanosti a opravdového státníctva prostřednictvím všech, kdo vzývají sedmý paprsek. Je členem rodu Rákóczyů, založeného Velkým Božským Ředitelem [[Velkým Božským Ředitelem]], v jehož transylvánském sídle [[Rákóczyho zámek|Transylvánské sídlo]] je v současné době ukotven [[fialový plamen]] svobody.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jméno ''Saint Germain'' pochází z latinského ''Sanctus Germanus'', což znamená jednoduše “Svatý Bratr.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;His_mission&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
== Jeho poslání ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Každý dvoutisíciletý cyklus spadá pod jeden ze sedmi paprsků. [[Special:MyLanguage/Jesus|Ježíš]], jakožto chohan šestého paprsku, zastával úřad hierarchy věku během posledních 2000 let. 1. května 1954 byli Saint Germain a Portia korunováni jako ředitelé pro nadcházející cyklus sedmého paprsku. Svoboda a spravedlnost jsou jin a jang sedmého paprsku Vodnáře a spolu s milosrdenstvím poskytují základ pro všechny ostatní Boží vlastnosti, které se mají projevit v této sedmé [[Special:MyLanguage/dispensation|dispensaci]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain and Portia deliver to the people of God the dispensation for the seventh age and the seventh ray—the [[violet ray]] of freedom, justice, mercy, [[alchemy]] and sacred ritual—a new lifewave, a new civilization, a new energy.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As chohan, or lord, of the seventh ray, Saint Germain initiates our souls in the science and ritual of [[transmutation]] through the violet flame. He is the seventh angel prophesied in Revelation 10:7 who comes to sponsor the finishing of the mystery of God “as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain says:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am an ascended being, but it has not ever been thus. Not once or twice but for many incarnations I walked the earth as you now do, confined to mortal frame and the limitations of dimensional existence. I was on [[Lemuria]] and I was on [[Atlantis]]. 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I have seen the choices, and I have chosen. By right choices man and woman establish their position in hierarchy. By choosing to be free in the magnificent will of God, I won my freedom from that mortal round of incarnations and justifications of an existence outside the One. I won my freedom by that flame, that keynote of the Aquarian cycle traced by alchemists of old, that purple elixir the saints do hold....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You are mortal. I am immortal. The only difference between us is that I have chosen to be free, and you have yet to make the choice. We have the same potential, the same resources, the same connection to the One. I have taken mine to forge a God-identity. For long ago, the still small voice within spoke the fiat of Alpha and the living God: “Children of the One, forge your God-identity.” And in the stillness of the night, I heard the call and I answered, “I will!” And when I said, “I will,” all of cosmos echoed, “I will!” The will to be summons the vastness of the potential of being....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am Saint Germain, and I have come to claim your soul and the fires of your heart for the victory of the Aquarian age. I have set the pattern for your soul’s [[initiation]].... I am on the path of freedom. Take that path, and you will find me there. I am your teacher if you will have me.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “I Have Chosen to Be Free,” {{POWref|18|30}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Over fifty thousand years ago, Saint Germain was the ruler of a golden-age civilization in a fertile country where the Sahara Desert now is. As king-emperor, Saint Germain was a master of the ancient wisdom and of the knowledge of the Matter spheres, and the people looked to him as the standard for their own emerging Godhood. His empire reached a height of beauty, symmetry and perfection unexceeded in the physical octave.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As the people of this civilization became more interested in the pleasures of the senses than in the larger creative plan of the Great God Self, a cosmic council instructed the ruler to withdraw from his empire; henceforth their karma would be their guru. The king held a great banquet for his councillors and public servants. His 576 guests each received a crystal goblet filled with an elixir that was “pure electronic essence.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This elixir was Saint Germain’s gift of soul-protection to them so that when their opportunity would come again in the age of Aquarius to bring back that golden-age civilization, they would remember their I AM Presence and they would become a sign to all people that God can and shall dwell with his people when they make their minds and hearts and souls a fitting habitation for his Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
During the banquet a cosmic master, identifying himself solely by the word Victory upon his brow, addressed the assembly. He warned the people of the crisis they had brought upon themselves by their faithlessness, rebuked them for their neglect of their Great God Source, and prophesied that the empire would come under the rule of a visiting prince who would be seeking to marry the king’s daughter. The king and his family withdrew seven days later to the golden-etheric city counterpart of the civilization. The prince arrived the next day and took over without opposition.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As high priest of the Violet Flame Temple on the mainland of [[Atlantis]] thirteen thousand years ago, Saint Germain sustained by his invocations and his causal body a pillar of fire, a veritable fountain of violet singing flame, which magnetized people from near and far who came to be set free from every binding condition of body, mind and soul. This they achieved by self-effort through the offering of invocations and the practice of seventh-ray rituals to the sacred fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Those who officiated at the altar of the Violet Flame Temple were schooled in the universal priesthood of the [[Order of Melchizedek]] at Lord [[Zadkiel]]’s retreat, the [[Temple of Purification]], which stood where the island of Cuba now is. This priesthood combines the perfect religion and the perfect science. It was here that both Saint Germain and [[Jesus]] received the anointing, spoken by Zadkiel himself: “Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Prior to the sinking of Atlantis, while [[Noah]] was yet building his ark and warning the people of [[The Flood|the great Flood]] to come, the Great Divine Director called Saint Germain and a few faithful priests to transport the flame of freedom from the Temple of Purification to a place of safety in the Carpathian foothills in Transylvania. Here they carried on the sacred ritual of expanding the fires of freedom even while mankind’s karma was being exacted by divine decree.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In succeeding embodiments, Saint Germain and his followers, under the guidance of the Great Divine Director, rediscovered the flame and continued to guard the shrine. Later, the Great Divine Director, assisted by his disciple, established a retreat at the site of the flame and founded the House of Rakoczy, the royal house of Hungary.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

In the eleventh century &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;B&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;C&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;., Saint Germain was embodied as the prophet Samuel. He was an outstanding religious leader in a time of great apostasy, serving as the last of Israel’s judges and the first of her prophets. In those days the judges did not simply arbitrate disputes; they were charismatic leaders who were believed to have direct access to God and who could rally the tribes of Israel against oppressors.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Samuel was the messenger of God’s liberation of the seed of [[Abraham]] from bondage to the corrupt priests, the sons of Eli, and from the Philistines, who had slaughtered the Israelites in battle. He is traditionally named alongside [[Moses]] as a great intercessor. When the nation faced continuing threats from the Philistines, he courageously led the people in a spiritual revival, exhorting them to “return unto the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; with all your hearts” and to “put away the strange gods.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 7:3.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The people repented and beseeched Samuel not to cease calling upon the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; to save them. As he was praying and offering sacrifices, a violent thunderstorm was unleashed, allowing the Israelites to overtake their enemies. The Philistines never rose again in the days of Samuel.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The prophet spent the rest of his life administering justice throughout the land. When he grew old, he appointed his sons to be judges over Israel; but they were corrupt and the people demanded that Samuel give them “a king to judge us like all the nations.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:5.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Deeply grieved, he prayed to the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; and received the direction that he must carry out the mandate of the people. The L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; told him, “They have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:7.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. But when Saul proved to be an unfaithful servant, Samuel pronounced the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;’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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Alban has been revered by the people of the Isles since his death in &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;

Saint Germain worked from inner planes as the Master Teacher behind the Neoplatonists. He inspired the Greek philosopher Proclus (c. &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Thomas Whittaker, ''The Neo-Platonists: A Study in the History of Hellenism'', 2d ed. (Cambridge:  Cambridge University Press, 1928), p. 165.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Victor Cousin and Thomas Taylor, trans., ''Two Treatises of Proclus, The Platonic Successor'' (London: n.p., 1833), p. vi.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Henry Thomas and Dana Lee Thomas, ''Living Biographies of Great Scientists'' (Garden City, N.Y.: Nelson Doubleday, 1941), p. 15.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; he said. Bacon eventually left his position as a lecturer at the University of Paris and entered the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;David Wallechinsky, Amy Wallace and Irving Wallace, ''The Book of Predictions'' (New York: William Morrow and Co., 1980), p. 346.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Clements R. Markham, ''Life of Christopher Columbus'' (London: George Philip and Son, 1892), pp. 207–8.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;''Encyclopaedia Britannica'', 15th ed., s.v. “Columbus, Christopher.”&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

“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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[Bible translations|King James Version of the Bible]], determined that the common people should have the benefit of reading God’s Word for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&lt;br /&gt;

Voltaire described him as the “man who never dies and who knows everything.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Voltaire, ''Œuvres'', Lettre cxviii, ed.

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[George Washington|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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== Chohan of the Seventh Ray ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 being]]s 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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
== Hierarch of the Aquarian Age ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 school]]s. Saint Germain tells us of the benefits of invoking the violet flame:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “Keep My Purple Heart,” {{POWref|31|72}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:0000144 poster-saint-germain-sindelar-1403 600.jpeg|thumb|Vzestoupený Mistr Saint Germain]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Saint Germain''' je [[čohanem]] sedmého paprsku. Spolu se svým  [[dvojplamenem]],vzestoupenou paní mistryní [[Portií]], Bohyní Spravedlnosti, je hierarchou věku [[Vodnáře]]. On je velkým patronem plamene svobody, zatímco Portia je patronkou plamene spravedlnosti. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain je známý jako diplomat, vyjadřující božské vlastnosti důstojnosti, elegance, ušlechtilosti, vyrovnanosti a opravdového státníctva prostřednictvím všech, kdo vzývají sedmý paprsek. Je členem rodu Rákóczyů, založeného Velkým Božským Ředitelem [[Velkým Božským Ředitelem]], v jehož transylvánském sídle [[Rákóczyho zámek|Transylvánské sídlo]] je v současné době ukotven [[fialový plamen]] svobody.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jméno ''Saint Germain'' pochází z latinského ''Sanctus Germanus'', což znamená jednoduše “Svatý Bratr.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== Jeho poslání ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Každý dvoutisíciletý cyklus spadá pod jeden ze sedmi paprsků. [[Ježíš]], jakožto chohan šestého paprsku, zastával úřad hierarchy věku během posledních 2000 let. 1. května 1954 byli Saint Germain a Portia korunováni jako ředitelé pro nadcházející cyklus sedmého paprsku. Svoboda a spravedlnost jsou jin a jang sedmého paprsku Vodnáře a spolu s milosrdenstvím poskytují základ pro všechny ostatní Boží vlastnosti, které se mají projevit v této sedmé [[dispensaci]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain and Portia deliver to the people of God the dispensation for the seventh age and the seventh ray—the [[violet ray]] of freedom, justice, mercy, [[alchemy]] and sacred ritual—a new lifewave, a new civilization, a new energy.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As chohan, or lord, of the seventh ray, Saint Germain initiates our souls in the science and ritual of [[transmutation]] through the violet flame. He is the seventh angel prophesied in Revelation 10:7 who comes to sponsor the finishing of the mystery of God “as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain says:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am an ascended being, but it has not ever been thus. Not once or twice but for many incarnations I walked the earth as you now do, confined to mortal frame and the limitations of dimensional existence. I was on [[Lemuria]] and I was on [[Atlantis]]. 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I have seen the choices, and I have chosen. By right choices man and woman establish their position in hierarchy. By choosing to be free in the magnificent will of God, I won my freedom from that mortal round of incarnations and justifications of an existence outside the One. I won my freedom by that flame, that keynote of the Aquarian cycle traced by alchemists of old, that purple elixir the saints do hold....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You are mortal. I am immortal. The only difference between us is that I have chosen to be free, and you have yet to make the choice. We have the same potential, the same resources, the same connection to the One. I have taken mine to forge a God-identity. For long ago, the still small voice within spoke the fiat of Alpha and the living God: “Children of the One, forge your God-identity.” And in the stillness of the night, I heard the call and I answered, “I will!” And when I said, “I will,” all of cosmos echoed, “I will!” The will to be summons the vastness of the potential of being....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am Saint Germain, and I have come to claim your soul and the fires of your heart for the victory of the Aquarian age. I have set the pattern for your soul’s [[initiation]].... I am on the path of freedom. Take that path, and you will find me there. I am your teacher if you will have me.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “I Have Chosen to Be Free,” {{POWref|18|30}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Over fifty thousand years ago, Saint Germain was the ruler of a golden-age civilization in a fertile country where the Sahara Desert now is. As king-emperor, Saint Germain was a master of the ancient wisdom and of the knowledge of the Matter spheres, and the people looked to him as the standard for their own emerging Godhood. His empire reached a height of beauty, symmetry and perfection unexceeded in the physical octave.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As the people of this civilization became more interested in the pleasures of the senses than in the larger creative plan of the Great God Self, a cosmic council instructed the ruler to withdraw from his empire; henceforth their karma would be their guru. The king held a great banquet for his councillors and public servants. His 576 guests each received a crystal goblet filled with an elixir that was “pure electronic essence.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This elixir was Saint Germain’s gift of soul-protection to them so that when their opportunity would come again in the age of Aquarius to bring back that golden-age civilization, they would remember their I AM Presence and they would become a sign to all people that God can and shall dwell with his people when they make their minds and hearts and souls a fitting habitation for his Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
During the banquet a cosmic master, identifying himself solely by the word Victory upon his brow, addressed the assembly. He warned the people of the crisis they had brought upon themselves by their faithlessness, rebuked them for their neglect of their Great God Source, and prophesied that the empire would come under the rule of a visiting prince who would be seeking to marry the king’s daughter. The king and his family withdrew seven days later to the golden-etheric city counterpart of the civilization. The prince arrived the next day and took over without opposition.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

As high priest of the Violet Flame Temple on the mainland of [[Atlantis]] thirteen thousand years ago, Saint Germain sustained by his invocations and his causal body a pillar of fire, a veritable fountain of violet singing flame, which magnetized people from near and far who came to be set free from every binding condition of body, mind and soul. This they achieved by self-effort through the offering of invocations and the practice of seventh-ray rituals to the sacred fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Those who officiated at the altar of the Violet Flame Temple were schooled in the universal priesthood of the [[Order of Melchizedek]] at Lord [[Zadkiel]]’s retreat, the [[Temple of Purification]], which stood where the island of Cuba now is. This priesthood combines the perfect religion and the perfect science. It was here that both Saint Germain and [[Jesus]] received the anointing, spoken by Zadkiel himself: “Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Prior to the sinking of Atlantis, while [[Noah]] was yet building his ark and warning the people of [[The Flood|the great Flood]] to come, the Great Divine Director called Saint Germain and a few faithful priests to transport the flame of freedom from the Temple of Purification to a place of safety in the Carpathian foothills in Transylvania. Here they carried on the sacred ritual of expanding the fires of freedom even while mankind’s karma was being exacted by divine decree.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

In succeeding embodiments, Saint Germain and his followers, under the guidance of the Great Divine Director, rediscovered the flame and continued to guard the shrine. Later, the Great Divine Director, assisted by his disciple, established a retreat at the site of the flame and founded the House of Rakoczy, the royal house of Hungary.&lt;br /&gt;

In the eleventh century &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;B&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;C&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;., Saint Germain was embodied as the prophet Samuel. He was an outstanding religious leader in a time of great apostasy, serving as the last of Israel’s judges and the first of her prophets. In those days the judges did not simply arbitrate disputes; they were charismatic leaders who were believed to have direct access to God and who could rally the tribes of Israel against oppressors.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Samuel was the messenger of God’s liberation of the seed of [[Abraham]] from bondage to the corrupt priests, the sons of Eli, and from the Philistines, who had slaughtered the Israelites in battle. He is traditionally named alongside [[Moses]] as a great intercessor. When the nation faced continuing threats from the Philistines, he courageously led the people in a spiritual revival, exhorting them to “return unto the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; with all your hearts” and to “put away the strange gods.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 7:3.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The people repented and beseeched Samuel not to cease calling upon the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; to save them. As he was praying and offering sacrifices, a violent thunderstorm was unleashed, allowing the Israelites to overtake their enemies. The Philistines never rose again in the days of Samuel.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The prophet spent the rest of his life administering justice throughout the land. When he grew old, he appointed his sons to be judges over Israel; but they were corrupt and the people demanded that Samuel give them “a king to judge us like all the nations.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:5.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Deeply grieved, he prayed to the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; and received the direction that he must carry out the mandate of the people. The L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; told him, “They have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:7.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. But when Saul proved to be an unfaithful servant, Samuel pronounced the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;’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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Alban has been revered by the people of the Isles since his death in &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;

Saint Germain worked from inner planes as the Master Teacher behind the Neoplatonists. He inspired the Greek philosopher Proclus (c. &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Thomas Whittaker, ''The Neo-Platonists: A Study in the History of Hellenism'', 2d ed. (Cambridge:  Cambridge University Press, 1928), p. 165.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Victor Cousin and Thomas Taylor, trans., ''Two Treatises of Proclus, The Platonic Successor'' (London: n.p., 1833), p. vi.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Henry Thomas and Dana Lee Thomas, ''Living Biographies of Great Scientists'' (Garden City, N.Y.: Nelson Doubleday, 1941), p. 15.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; he said. Bacon eventually left his position as a lecturer at the University of Paris and entered the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;David Wallechinsky, Amy Wallace and Irving Wallace, ''The Book of Predictions'' (New York: William Morrow and Co., 1980), p. 346.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Clements R. Markham, ''Life of Christopher Columbus'' (London: George Philip and Son, 1892), pp. 207–8.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;''Encyclopaedia Britannica'', 15th ed., s.v. “Columbus, Christopher.”&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

“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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[Bible translations|King James Version of the Bible]], determined that the common people should have the benefit of reading God’s Word for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;See {{TSC}}.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; His mother, however, fearful of an untimely loss of power, refused to acknowledge him as her heir.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Voltaire, ''Œuvres'', Lettre cxviii, ed. Beuchot, lviii, p. 360, quoted in Isabel Cooper-Oakley, ''The Count of Saint Germain'' (Blauvelt, N.Y.: Rudolf Steiner Publications, 1970), p. 96.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The count is mentioned in the letters of Frederick the Great, Voltaire, Horace Walpole and Casanova, and in newspapers of the day.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[George Washington|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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
== Chohan of the Seventh Ray ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 being]]s 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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 school]]s. Saint Germain tells us of the benefits of invoking the violet flame:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “Keep My Purple Heart,” {{POWref|31|72}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:0000144 poster-saint-germain-sindelar-1403 600.jpeg|thumb|Vzestoupený Mistr Saint Germain]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Saint Germain''' je [[čohanem]] sedmého paprsku. Spolu se svým  [[dvojplamenem]],vzestoupenou paní mistryní [[Portií]], Bohyní Spravedlnosti, je hierarchou věku [[Vodnáře]]. On je velkým patronem plamene svobody, zatímco Portia je patronkou plamene spravedlnosti. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain je známý jako diplomat, vyjadřující božské vlastnosti důstojnosti, elegance, ušlechtilosti, vyrovnanosti a opravdového státníctva prostřednictvím všech, kdo vzývají sedmý paprsek. Je členem rodu Rákóczyů, založeného Velkým Božským Ředitelem [[Velkým Božským Ředitelem]], v jehož transylvánském sídle [[Rákóczyho zámek|Transylvánské sídlo]] je v současné době ukotven [[fialový plamen]] svobody.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jméno ''Saint Germain'' pochází z latinského ''Sanctus Germanus'', což znamená jednoduše “Svatý Bratr.”&lt;br /&gt;

Each two-thousand-year cycle comes under one of the seven rays. [[Jesus]], as chohan of the sixth ray, held the office of hierarch of the age during the last 2000 years. On May 1, 1954, Saint Germain and Portia were crowned as directors for the coming cycle of the seventh ray. Freedom and justice are the yin and yang of the seventh ray of Aquarius, and together with mercy, they provide the foundation for all other attributes of God to be outpictured in this seventh [[dispensation]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Každý dvoutisíciletý cyklus spadá pod jeden ze sedmi paprsků.[[Ježíš]], jakožto chohan šestého paprsku, zastával úřad hierarchy věku během posledních 2000 let. 1. května 1954 byli Saint Germain a Portia korunováni jako ředitelé pro nadcházející cyklus sedmého paprsku. Svoboda a spravedlnost jsou jin a jang sedmého paprsku Vodnáře a spolu s milosrdenstvím poskytují základ pro všechny ostatní Boží vlastnosti, které se mají projevit v této sedmé [[dispensaci]].&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain and Portia deliver to the people of God the dispensation for the seventh age and the seventh ray—the [[violet ray]] of freedom, justice, mercy, [[alchemy]] and sacred ritual—a new lifewave, a new civilization, a new energy.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As chohan, or lord, of the seventh ray, Saint Germain initiates our souls in the science and ritual of [[transmutation]] through the violet flame. He is the seventh angel prophesied in Revelation 10:7 who comes to sponsor the finishing of the mystery of God “as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain says:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am an ascended being, but it has not ever been thus. Not once or twice but for many incarnations I walked the earth as you now do, confined to mortal frame and the limitations of dimensional existence. I was on [[Lemuria]] and I was on [[Atlantis]]. 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I have seen the choices, and I have chosen. By right choices man and woman establish their position in hierarchy. By choosing to be free in the magnificent will of God, I won my freedom from that mortal round of incarnations and justifications of an existence outside the One. I won my freedom by that flame, that keynote of the Aquarian cycle traced by alchemists of old, that purple elixir the saints do hold....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You are mortal. I am immortal. The only difference between us is that I have chosen to be free, and you have yet to make the choice. We have the same potential, the same resources, the same connection to the One. I have taken mine to forge a God-identity. For long ago, the still small voice within spoke the fiat of Alpha and the living God: “Children of the One, forge your God-identity.” And in the stillness of the night, I heard the call and I answered, “I will!” And when I said, “I will,” all of cosmos echoed, “I will!” The will to be summons the vastness of the potential of being....&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Over fifty thousand years ago, Saint Germain was the ruler of a golden-age civilization in a fertile country where the Sahara Desert now is. As king-emperor, Saint Germain was a master of the ancient wisdom and of the knowledge of the Matter spheres, and the people looked to him as the standard for their own emerging Godhood. His empire reached a height of beauty, symmetry and perfection unexceeded in the physical octave.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As the people of this civilization became more interested in the pleasures of the senses than in the larger creative plan of the Great God Self, a cosmic council instructed the ruler to withdraw from his empire; henceforth their karma would be their guru. The king held a great banquet for his councillors and public servants. His 576 guests each received a crystal goblet filled with an elixir that was “pure electronic essence.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This elixir was Saint Germain’s gift of soul-protection to them so that when their opportunity would come again in the age of Aquarius to bring back that golden-age civilization, they would remember their I AM Presence and they would become a sign to all people that God can and shall dwell with his people when they make their minds and hearts and souls a fitting habitation for his Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
During the banquet a cosmic master, identifying himself solely by the word Victory upon his brow, addressed the assembly. He warned the people of the crisis they had brought upon themselves by their faithlessness, rebuked them for their neglect of their Great God Source, and prophesied that the empire would come under the rule of a visiting prince who would be seeking to marry the king’s daughter. The king and his family withdrew seven days later to the golden-etheric city counterpart of the civilization. The prince arrived the next day and took over without opposition.&lt;br /&gt;

As high priest of the Violet Flame Temple on the mainland of [[Atlantis]] thirteen thousand years ago, Saint Germain sustained by his invocations and his causal body a pillar of fire, a veritable fountain of violet singing flame, which magnetized people from near and far who came to be set free from every binding condition of body, mind and soul. This they achieved by self-effort through the offering of invocations and the practice of seventh-ray rituals to the sacred fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Those who officiated at the altar of the Violet Flame Temple were schooled in the universal priesthood of the [[Order of Melchizedek]] at Lord [[Zadkiel]]’s retreat, the [[Temple of Purification]], which stood where the island of Cuba now is. This priesthood combines the perfect religion and the perfect science. It was here that both Saint Germain and [[Jesus]] received the anointing, spoken by Zadkiel himself: “Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Prior to the sinking of Atlantis, while [[Noah]] was yet building his ark and warning the people of [[The Flood|the great Flood]] to come, the Great Divine Director called Saint Germain and a few faithful priests to transport the flame of freedom from the Temple of Purification to a place of safety in the Carpathian foothills in Transylvania. Here they carried on the sacred ritual of expanding the fires of freedom even while mankind’s karma was being exacted by divine decree.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In succeeding embodiments, Saint Germain and his followers, under the guidance of the Great Divine Director, rediscovered the flame and continued to guard the shrine. Later, the Great Divine Director, assisted by his disciple, established a retreat at the site of the flame and founded the House of Rakoczy, the royal house of Hungary.&lt;br /&gt;

In the eleventh century &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;B&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;C&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;., Saint Germain was embodied as the prophet Samuel. He was an outstanding religious leader in a time of great apostasy, serving as the last of Israel’s judges and the first of her prophets. In those days the judges did not simply arbitrate disputes; they were charismatic leaders who were believed to have direct access to God and who could rally the tribes of Israel against oppressors.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Samuel was the messenger of God’s liberation of the seed of [[Abraham]] from bondage to the corrupt priests, the sons of Eli, and from the Philistines, who had slaughtered the Israelites in battle. He is traditionally named alongside [[Moses]] as a great intercessor. When the nation faced continuing threats from the Philistines, he courageously led the people in a spiritual revival, exhorting them to “return unto the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; with all your hearts” and to “put away the strange gods.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 7:3.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The people repented and beseeched Samuel not to cease calling upon the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; to save them. As he was praying and offering sacrifices, a violent thunderstorm was unleashed, allowing the Israelites to overtake their enemies. The Philistines never rose again in the days of Samuel.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The prophet spent the rest of his life administering justice throughout the land. When he grew old, he appointed his sons to be judges over Israel; but they were corrupt and the people demanded that Samuel give them “a king to judge us like all the nations.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:5.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Deeply grieved, he prayed to the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; and received the direction that he must carry out the mandate of the people. The L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; told him, “They have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:7.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. But when Saul proved to be an unfaithful servant, Samuel pronounced the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;’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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Alban has been revered by the people of the Isles since his death in &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;

Saint Germain worked from inner planes as the Master Teacher behind the Neoplatonists. He inspired the Greek philosopher Proclus (c. &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Thomas Whittaker, ''The Neo-Platonists: A Study in the History of Hellenism'', 2d ed. (Cambridge:  Cambridge University Press, 1928), p. 165.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Victor Cousin and Thomas Taylor, trans., ''Two Treatises of Proclus, The Platonic Successor'' (London: n.p., 1833), p. vi.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Henry Thomas and Dana Lee Thomas, ''Living Biographies of Great Scientists'' (Garden City, N.Y.: Nelson Doubleday, 1941), p. 15.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; he said. Bacon eventually left his position as a lecturer at the University of Paris and entered the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;David Wallechinsky, Amy Wallace and Irving Wallace, ''The Book of Predictions'' (New York: William Morrow and Co., 1980), p. 346.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Clements R. Markham, ''Life of Christopher Columbus'' (London: George Philip and Son, 1892), pp. 207–8.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;''Encyclopaedia Britannica'', 15th ed., s.v. “Columbus, Christopher.”&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
“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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[Bible translations|King James Version of the Bible]], determined that the common people should have the benefit of reading God’s Word for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;See {{TSC}}.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; His mother, however, fearful of an untimely loss of power, refused to acknowledge him as her heir.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Voltaire, ''Œuvres'', Lettre cxviii, ed. Beuchot, lviii, p. 360, quoted in Isabel Cooper-Oakley, ''The Count of Saint Germain'' (Blauvelt, N.Y.: Rudolf Steiner Publications, 1970), p. 96.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The count is mentioned in the letters of Frederick the Great, Voltaire, Horace Walpole and Casanova, and in newspapers of the day.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[George Washington|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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
== Chohan of the Seventh Ray ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 being]]s 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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 school]]s. Saint Germain tells us of the benefits of invoking the violet flame:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “Keep My Purple Heart,” {{POWref|31|72}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:0000144 poster-saint-germain-sindelar-1403 600.jpeg|thumb|Vzestoupený Mistr Saint Germain]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Saint Germain''' je [[čohanem]] sedmého paprsku. Spolu se svým  [[dvojplamenem]],vzestoupenou paní mistryní [[Portií]], Bohyní Spravedlnosti, je hierarchou věku [[Vodnáře]]. On je velkým patronem plamene svobody, zatímco Portia je patronkou plamene spravedlnosti. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain je známý jako diplomat, vyjadřující božské vlastnosti důstojnosti, elegance, ušlechtilosti, vyrovnanosti a opravdového státníctva prostřednictvím všech, kdo vzývají sedmý paprsek. Je členem rodu Rákóczyů, založeného Velkým Božským Ředitelem [[Velkým Božským Ředitelem]], v jehož transylvánském sídle [[Rákóczyho zámek|Transylvánské sídlo]] je v současné době ukotven [[fialový plamen]] svobody.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jméno ''Saint Germain'' pochází z latinského ''Sanctus Germanus'', což znamená jednoduše “Svatý Bratr.”&lt;br /&gt;

Each two-thousand-year cycle comes under one of the seven rays. [[Jesus]], as chohan of the sixth ray, held the office of hierarch of the age during the last 2000 years. On May 1, 1954, Saint Germain and Portia were crowned as directors for the coming cycle of the seventh ray. Freedom and justice are the yin and yang of the seventh ray of Aquarius, and together with mercy, they provide the foundation for all other attributes of God to be outpictured in this seventh [[dispensation]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain and Portia deliver to the people of God the dispensation for the seventh age and the seventh ray—the [[violet ray]] of freedom, justice, mercy, [[alchemy]] and sacred ritual—a new lifewave, a new civilization, a new energy.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As chohan, or lord, of the seventh ray, Saint Germain initiates our souls in the science and ritual of [[transmutation]] through the violet flame. He is the seventh angel prophesied in Revelation 10:7 who comes to sponsor the finishing of the mystery of God “as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain says:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am an ascended being, but it has not ever been thus. Not once or twice but for many incarnations I walked the earth as you now do, confined to mortal frame and the limitations of dimensional existence. I was on [[Lemuria]] and I was on [[Atlantis]]. 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I have seen the choices, and I have chosen. By right choices man and woman establish their position in hierarchy. By choosing to be free in the magnificent will of God, I won my freedom from that mortal round of incarnations and justifications of an existence outside the One. I won my freedom by that flame, that keynote of the Aquarian cycle traced by alchemists of old, that purple elixir the saints do hold....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You are mortal. I am immortal. The only difference between us is that I have chosen to be free, and you have yet to make the choice. We have the same potential, the same resources, the same connection to the One. I have taken mine to forge a God-identity. For long ago, the still small voice within spoke the fiat of Alpha and the living God: “Children of the One, forge your God-identity.” And in the stillness of the night, I heard the call and I answered, “I will!” And when I said, “I will,” all of cosmos echoed, “I will!” The will to be summons the vastness of the potential of being....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am Saint Germain, and I have come to claim your soul and the fires of your heart for the victory of the Aquarian age. I have set the pattern for your soul’s [[initiation]].... I am on the path of freedom. Take that path, and you will find me there. I am your teacher if you will have me.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “I Have Chosen to Be Free,” {{POWref|18|30}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

=== Ruler of a golden-age civilization ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

{{Main|Golden age in the Sahara Desert}}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Over fifty thousand years ago, Saint Germain was the ruler of a golden-age civilization in a fertile country where the Sahara Desert now is. As king-emperor, Saint Germain was a master of the ancient wisdom and of the knowledge of the Matter spheres, and the people looked to him as the standard for their own emerging Godhood. His empire reached a height of beauty, symmetry and perfection unexceeded in the physical octave.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As the people of this civilization became more interested in the pleasures of the senses than in the larger creative plan of the Great God Self, a cosmic council instructed the ruler to withdraw from his empire; henceforth their karma would be their guru. The king held a great banquet for his councillors and public servants. His 576 guests each received a crystal goblet filled with an elixir that was “pure electronic essence.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This elixir was Saint Germain’s gift of soul-protection to them so that when their opportunity would come again in the age of Aquarius to bring back that golden-age civilization, they would remember their I AM Presence and they would become a sign to all people that God can and shall dwell with his people when they make their minds and hearts and souls a fitting habitation for his Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
During the banquet a cosmic master, identifying himself solely by the word Victory upon his brow, addressed the assembly. He warned the people of the crisis they had brought upon themselves by their faithlessness, rebuked them for their neglect of their Great God Source, and prophesied that the empire would come under the rule of a visiting prince who would be seeking to marry the king’s daughter. The king and his family withdrew seven days later to the golden-etheric city counterpart of the civilization. The prince arrived the next day and took over without opposition.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== High priest on Atlantis ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As high priest of the Violet Flame Temple on the mainland of [[Atlantis]] thirteen thousand years ago, Saint Germain sustained by his invocations and his causal body a pillar of fire, a veritable fountain of violet singing flame, which magnetized people from near and far who came to be set free from every binding condition of body, mind and soul. This they achieved by self-effort through the offering of invocations and the practice of seventh-ray rituals to the sacred fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Those who officiated at the altar of the Violet Flame Temple were schooled in the universal priesthood of the [[Order of Melchizedek]] at Lord [[Zadkiel]]’s retreat, the [[Temple of Purification]], which stood where the island of Cuba now is. This priesthood combines the perfect religion and the perfect science. It was here that both Saint Germain and [[Jesus]] received the anointing, spoken by Zadkiel himself: “Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Prior to the sinking of Atlantis, while [[Noah]] was yet building his ark and warning the people of [[The Flood|the great Flood]] to come, the Great Divine Director called Saint Germain and a few faithful priests to transport the flame of freedom from the Temple of Purification to a place of safety in the Carpathian foothills in Transylvania. Here they carried on the sacred ritual of expanding the fires of freedom even while mankind’s karma was being exacted by divine decree.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In succeeding embodiments, Saint Germain and his followers, under the guidance of the Great Divine Director, rediscovered the flame and continued to guard the shrine. Later, the Great Divine Director, assisted by his disciple, established a retreat at the site of the flame and founded the House of Rakoczy, the royal house of Hungary.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In the eleventh century &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;B&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;C&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;., Saint Germain was embodied as the prophet Samuel. He was an outstanding religious leader in a time of great apostasy, serving as the last of Israel’s judges and the first of her prophets. In those days the judges did not simply arbitrate disputes; they were charismatic leaders who were believed to have direct access to God and who could rally the tribes of Israel against oppressors.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Samuel was the messenger of God’s liberation of the seed of [[Abraham]] from bondage to the corrupt priests, the sons of Eli, and from the Philistines, who had slaughtered the Israelites in battle. He is traditionally named alongside [[Moses]] as a great intercessor. When the nation faced continuing threats from the Philistines, he courageously led the people in a spiritual revival, exhorting them to “return unto the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; with all your hearts” and to “put away the strange gods.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 7:3.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The people repented and beseeched Samuel not to cease calling upon the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; to save them. As he was praying and offering sacrifices, a violent thunderstorm was unleashed, allowing the Israelites to overtake their enemies. The Philistines never rose again in the days of Samuel.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The prophet spent the rest of his life administering justice throughout the land. When he grew old, he appointed his sons to be judges over Israel; but they were corrupt and the people demanded that Samuel give them “a king to judge us like all the nations.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:5.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Deeply grieved, he prayed to the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; and received the direction that he must carry out the mandate of the people. The L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; told him, “They have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:7.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. But when Saul proved to be an unfaithful servant, Samuel pronounced the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;’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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Alban has been revered by the people of the Isles since his death in &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain worked from inner planes as the Master Teacher behind the Neoplatonists. He inspired the Greek philosopher Proclus (c. &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Thomas Whittaker, ''The Neo-Platonists: A Study in the History of Hellenism'', 2d ed. (Cambridge:  Cambridge University Press, 1928), p. 165.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Victor Cousin and Thomas Taylor, trans., ''Two Treatises of Proclus, The Platonic Successor'' (London: n.p., 1833), p. vi.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Henry Thomas and Dana Lee Thomas, ''Living Biographies of Great Scientists'' (Garden City, N.Y.: Nelson Doubleday, 1941), p. 15.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; he said. Bacon eventually left his position as a lecturer at the University of Paris and entered the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;David Wallechinsky, Amy Wallace and Irving Wallace, ''The Book of Predictions'' (New York: William Morrow and Co., 1980), p. 346.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Clements R. Markham, ''Life of Christopher Columbus'' (London: George Philip and Son, 1892), pp. 207–8.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;''Encyclopaedia Britannica'', 15th ed., s.v. “Columbus, Christopher.”&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
“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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[Bible translations|King James Version of the Bible]], determined that the common people should have the benefit of reading God’s Word for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;See {{TSC}}.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; His mother, however, fearful of an untimely loss of power, refused to acknowledge him as her heir.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Voltaire, ''Œuvres'', Lettre cxviii, ed. Beuchot, lviii, p. 360, quoted in Isabel Cooper-Oakley, ''The Count of Saint Germain'' (Blauvelt, N.Y.: Rudolf Steiner Publications, 1970), p. 96.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The count is mentioned in the letters of Frederick the Great, Voltaire, Horace Walpole and Casanova, and in newspapers of the day.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[George Washington|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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 being]]s 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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 school]]s. Saint Germain tells us of the benefits of invoking the violet flame:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “Keep My Purple Heart,” {{POWref|31|72}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:0000144 poster-saint-germain-sindelar-1403 600.jpeg|thumb|Vzestoupený Mistr Saint Germain]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Saint Germain''' je [[čohanem]] sedmého paprsku. Spolu se svým  [[dvojplamenem]],vzestoupenou paní mistryní [[Portií]], Bohyní Spravedlnosti, je hierarchou věku [[Vodnáře]]. On je velkým patronem plamene svobody, zatímco Portia je patronkou plamene spravedlnosti. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain je známý jako diplomat, vyjadřující božské vlastnosti důstojnosti, elegance, ušlechtilosti, vyrovnanosti a opravdového státníctva prostřednictvím všech, kdo vzývají sedmý paprsek. Je členem rodu Rákóczyů, založeného Velkým Božským Ředitelem [[Velkým Božským Ředitelem]], v jehož transylvánském sídle [[Rákóczyho zámek|Transylvánské sídlo]] je v současné době ukotven [[fialový plamen]] svobody.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Jméno ''Saint Germain'' pochází z latinského ''Sanctus Germanus'', což znamená jednoduše “Svatý Bratr.”&lt;br /&gt;

Each two-thousand-year cycle comes under one of the seven rays. [[Jesus]], as chohan of the sixth ray, held the office of hierarch of the age during the last 2000 years. On May 1, 1954, Saint Germain and Portia were crowned as directors for the coming cycle of the seventh ray. Freedom and justice are the yin and yang of the seventh ray of Aquarius, and together with mercy, they provide the foundation for all other attributes of God to be outpictured in this seventh [[dispensation]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain and Portia deliver to the people of God the dispensation for the seventh age and the seventh ray—the [[violet ray]] of freedom, justice, mercy, [[alchemy]] and sacred ritual—a new lifewave, a new civilization, a new energy.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As chohan, or lord, of the seventh ray, Saint Germain initiates our souls in the science and ritual of [[transmutation]] through the violet flame. He is the seventh angel prophesied in Revelation 10:7 who comes to sponsor the finishing of the mystery of God “as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain says:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am an ascended being, but it has not ever been thus. Not once or twice but for many incarnations I walked the earth as you now do, confined to mortal frame and the limitations of dimensional existence. I was on [[Lemuria]] and I was on [[Atlantis]]. 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I have seen the choices, and I have chosen. By right choices man and woman establish their position in hierarchy. By choosing to be free in the magnificent will of God, I won my freedom from that mortal round of incarnations and justifications of an existence outside the One. I won my freedom by that flame, that keynote of the Aquarian cycle traced by alchemists of old, that purple elixir the saints do hold....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You are mortal. I am immortal. The only difference between us is that I have chosen to be free, and you have yet to make the choice. We have the same potential, the same resources, the same connection to the One. I have taken mine to forge a God-identity. For long ago, the still small voice within spoke the fiat of Alpha and the living God: “Children of the One, forge your God-identity.” And in the stillness of the night, I heard the call and I answered, “I will!” And when I said, “I will,” all of cosmos echoed, “I will!” The will to be summons the vastness of the potential of being....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am Saint Germain, and I have come to claim your soul and the fires of your heart for the victory of the Aquarian age. I have set the pattern for your soul’s [[initiation]].... I am on the path of freedom. Take that path, and you will find me there. I am your teacher if you will have me.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “I Have Chosen to Be Free,” {{POWref|18|30}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Over fifty thousand years ago, Saint Germain was the ruler of a golden-age civilization in a fertile country where the Sahara Desert now is. As king-emperor, Saint Germain was a master of the ancient wisdom and of the knowledge of the Matter spheres, and the people looked to him as the standard for their own emerging Godhood. His empire reached a height of beauty, symmetry and perfection unexceeded in the physical octave.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As the people of this civilization became more interested in the pleasures of the senses than in the larger creative plan of the Great God Self, a cosmic council instructed the ruler to withdraw from his empire; henceforth their karma would be their guru. The king held a great banquet for his councillors and public servants. His 576 guests each received a crystal goblet filled with an elixir that was “pure electronic essence.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This elixir was Saint Germain’s gift of soul-protection to them so that when their opportunity would come again in the age of Aquarius to bring back that golden-age civilization, they would remember their I AM Presence and they would become a sign to all people that God can and shall dwell with his people when they make their minds and hearts and souls a fitting habitation for his Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
During the banquet a cosmic master, identifying himself solely by the word Victory upon his brow, addressed the assembly. He warned the people of the crisis they had brought upon themselves by their faithlessness, rebuked them for their neglect of their Great God Source, and prophesied that the empire would come under the rule of a visiting prince who would be seeking to marry the king’s daughter. The king and his family withdrew seven days later to the golden-etheric city counterpart of the civilization. The prince arrived the next day and took over without opposition.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As high priest of the Violet Flame Temple on the mainland of [[Atlantis]] thirteen thousand years ago, Saint Germain sustained by his invocations and his causal body a pillar of fire, a veritable fountain of violet singing flame, which magnetized people from near and far who came to be set free from every binding condition of body, mind and soul. This they achieved by self-effort through the offering of invocations and the practice of seventh-ray rituals to the sacred fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Those who officiated at the altar of the Violet Flame Temple were schooled in the universal priesthood of the [[Order of Melchizedek]] at Lord [[Zadkiel]]’s retreat, the [[Temple of Purification]], which stood where the island of Cuba now is. This priesthood combines the perfect religion and the perfect science. It was here that both Saint Germain and [[Jesus]] received the anointing, spoken by Zadkiel himself: “Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Prior to the sinking of Atlantis, while [[Noah]] was yet building his ark and warning the people of [[The Flood|the great Flood]] to come, the Great Divine Director called Saint Germain and a few faithful priests to transport the flame of freedom from the Temple of Purification to a place of safety in the Carpathian foothills in Transylvania. Here they carried on the sacred ritual of expanding the fires of freedom even while mankind’s karma was being exacted by divine decree.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In succeeding embodiments, Saint Germain and his followers, under the guidance of the Great Divine Director, rediscovered the flame and continued to guard the shrine. Later, the Great Divine Director, assisted by his disciple, established a retreat at the site of the flame and founded the House of Rakoczy, the royal house of Hungary.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

In the eleventh century &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;B&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;C&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;., Saint Germain was embodied as the prophet Samuel. He was an outstanding religious leader in a time of great apostasy, serving as the last of Israel’s judges and the first of her prophets. In those days the judges did not simply arbitrate disputes; they were charismatic leaders who were believed to have direct access to God and who could rally the tribes of Israel against oppressors.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Samuel was the messenger of God’s liberation of the seed of [[Abraham]] from bondage to the corrupt priests, the sons of Eli, and from the Philistines, who had slaughtered the Israelites in battle. He is traditionally named alongside [[Moses]] as a great intercessor. When the nation faced continuing threats from the Philistines, he courageously led the people in a spiritual revival, exhorting them to “return unto the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; with all your hearts” and to “put away the strange gods.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 7:3.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The people repented and beseeched Samuel not to cease calling upon the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; to save them. As he was praying and offering sacrifices, a violent thunderstorm was unleashed, allowing the Israelites to overtake their enemies. The Philistines never rose again in the days of Samuel.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The prophet spent the rest of his life administering justice throughout the land. When he grew old, he appointed his sons to be judges over Israel; but they were corrupt and the people demanded that Samuel give them “a king to judge us like all the nations.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:5.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Deeply grieved, he prayed to the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; and received the direction that he must carry out the mandate of the people. The L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; told him, “They have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:7.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. But when Saul proved to be an unfaithful servant, Samuel pronounced the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;’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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&lt;br /&gt;

Saint Germain worked from inner planes as the Master Teacher behind the Neoplatonists. He inspired the Greek philosopher Proclus (c. &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Thomas Whittaker, ''The Neo-Platonists: A Study in the History of Hellenism'', 2d ed. (Cambridge:  Cambridge University Press, 1928), p. 165.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Victor Cousin and Thomas Taylor, trans., ''Two Treatises of Proclus, The Platonic Successor'' (London: n.p., 1833), p. vi.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Henry Thomas and Dana Lee Thomas, ''Living Biographies of Great Scientists'' (Garden City, N.Y.: Nelson Doubleday, 1941), p. 15.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; he said. Bacon eventually left his position as a lecturer at the University of Paris and entered the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;David Wallechinsky, Amy Wallace and Irving Wallace, ''The Book of Predictions'' (New York: William Morrow and Co., 1980), p. 346.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Clements R. Markham, ''Life of Christopher Columbus'' (London: George Philip and Son, 1892), pp. 207–8.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;''Encyclopaedia Britannica'', 15th ed., s.v. “Columbus, Christopher.”&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
“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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[Bible translations|King James Version of the Bible]], determined that the common people should have the benefit of reading God’s Word for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;See {{TSC}}.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; His mother, however, fearful of an untimely loss of power, refused to acknowledge him as her heir.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Voltaire, ''Œuvres'', Lettre cxviii, ed. Beuchot, lviii, p. 360, quoted in Isabel Cooper-Oakley, ''The Count of Saint Germain'' (Blauvelt, N.Y.: Rudolf Steiner Publications, 1970), p. 96.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The count is mentioned in the letters of Frederick the Great, Voltaire, Horace Walpole and Casanova, and in newspapers of the day.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[George Washington|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.&lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 being]]s 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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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 school]]s. Saint Germain tells us of the benefits of invoking the violet flame:&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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....&lt;br /&gt;

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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “Keep My Purple Heart,” {{POWref|31|72}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;

Each two-thousand-year cycle comes under one of the seven rays. [[Jesus]], as chohan of the sixth ray, held the office of hierarch of the age during the last 2000 years. On May 1, 1954, Saint Germain and Portia were crowned as directors for the coming cycle of the seventh ray. Freedom and justice are the yin and yang of the seventh ray of Aquarius, and together with mercy, they provide the foundation for all other attributes of God to be outpictured in this seventh [[dispensation]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain and Portia deliver to the people of God the dispensation for the seventh age and the seventh ray—the [[violet ray]] of freedom, justice, mercy, [[alchemy]] and sacred ritual—a new lifewave, a new civilization, a new energy.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As chohan, or lord, of the seventh ray, Saint Germain initiates our souls in the science and ritual of [[transmutation]] through the violet flame. He is the seventh angel prophesied in Revelation 10:7 who comes to sponsor the finishing of the mystery of God “as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am an ascended being, but it has not ever been thus. Not once or twice but for many incarnations I walked the earth as you now do, confined to mortal frame and the limitations of dimensional existence. I was on [[Lemuria]] and I was on [[Atlantis]]. 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I have seen the choices, and I have chosen. By right choices man and woman establish their position in hierarchy. By choosing to be free in the magnificent will of God, I won my freedom from that mortal round of incarnations and justifications of an existence outside the One. I won my freedom by that flame, that keynote of the Aquarian cycle traced by alchemists of old, that purple elixir the saints do hold....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You are mortal. I am immortal. The only difference between us is that I have chosen to be free, and you have yet to make the choice. We have the same potential, the same resources, the same connection to the One. I have taken mine to forge a God-identity. For long ago, the still small voice within spoke the fiat of Alpha and the living God: “Children of the One, forge your God-identity.” And in the stillness of the night, I heard the call and I answered, “I will!” And when I said, “I will,” all of cosmos echoed, “I will!” The will to be summons the vastness of the potential of being....&lt;br /&gt;

Over fifty thousand years ago, Saint Germain was the ruler of a golden-age civilization in a fertile country where the Sahara Desert now is. As king-emperor, Saint Germain was a master of the ancient wisdom and of the knowledge of the Matter spheres, and the people looked to him as the standard for their own emerging Godhood. His empire reached a height of beauty, symmetry and perfection unexceeded in the physical octave.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As the people of this civilization became more interested in the pleasures of the senses than in the larger creative plan of the Great God Self, a cosmic council instructed the ruler to withdraw from his empire; henceforth their karma would be their guru. The king held a great banquet for his councillors and public servants. His 576 guests each received a crystal goblet filled with an elixir that was “pure electronic essence.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This elixir was Saint Germain’s gift of soul-protection to them so that when their opportunity would come again in the age of Aquarius to bring back that golden-age civilization, they would remember their I AM Presence and they would become a sign to all people that God can and shall dwell with his people when they make their minds and hearts and souls a fitting habitation for his Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
During the banquet a cosmic master, identifying himself solely by the word Victory upon his brow, addressed the assembly. He warned the people of the crisis they had brought upon themselves by their faithlessness, rebuked them for their neglect of their Great God Source, and prophesied that the empire would come under the rule of a visiting prince who would be seeking to marry the king’s daughter. The king and his family withdrew seven days later to the golden-etheric city counterpart of the civilization. The prince arrived the next day and took over without opposition.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

As high priest of the Violet Flame Temple on the mainland of [[Atlantis]] thirteen thousand years ago, Saint Germain sustained by his invocations and his causal body a pillar of fire, a veritable fountain of violet singing flame, which magnetized people from near and far who came to be set free from every binding condition of body, mind and soul. This they achieved by self-effort through the offering of invocations and the practice of seventh-ray rituals to the sacred fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Those who officiated at the altar of the Violet Flame Temple were schooled in the universal priesthood of the [[Order of Melchizedek]] at Lord [[Zadkiel]]’s retreat, the [[Temple of Purification]], which stood where the island of Cuba now is. This priesthood combines the perfect religion and the perfect science. It was here that both Saint Germain and [[Jesus]] received the anointing, spoken by Zadkiel himself: “Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Prior to the sinking of Atlantis, while [[Noah]] was yet building his ark and warning the people of [[The Flood|the great Flood]] to come, the Great Divine Director called Saint Germain and a few faithful priests to transport the flame of freedom from the Temple of Purification to a place of safety in the Carpathian foothills in Transylvania. Here they carried on the sacred ritual of expanding the fires of freedom even while mankind’s karma was being exacted by divine decree.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In succeeding embodiments, Saint Germain and his followers, under the guidance of the Great Divine Director, rediscovered the flame and continued to guard the shrine. Later, the Great Divine Director, assisted by his disciple, established a retreat at the site of the flame and founded the House of Rakoczy, the royal house of Hungary.&lt;br /&gt;

In the eleventh century &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;B&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;C&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;., Saint Germain was embodied as the prophet Samuel. He was an outstanding religious leader in a time of great apostasy, serving as the last of Israel’s judges and the first of her prophets. In those days the judges did not simply arbitrate disputes; they were charismatic leaders who were believed to have direct access to God and who could rally the tribes of Israel against oppressors.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Samuel was the messenger of God’s liberation of the seed of [[Abraham]] from bondage to the corrupt priests, the sons of Eli, and from the Philistines, who had slaughtered the Israelites in battle. He is traditionally named alongside [[Moses]] as a great intercessor. When the nation faced continuing threats from the Philistines, he courageously led the people in a spiritual revival, exhorting them to “return unto the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; with all your hearts” and to “put away the strange gods.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 7:3.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The people repented and beseeched Samuel not to cease calling upon the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; to save them. As he was praying and offering sacrifices, a violent thunderstorm was unleashed, allowing the Israelites to overtake their enemies. The Philistines never rose again in the days of Samuel.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The prophet spent the rest of his life administering justice throughout the land. When he grew old, he appointed his sons to be judges over Israel; but they were corrupt and the people demanded that Samuel give them “a king to judge us like all the nations.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:5.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Deeply grieved, he prayed to the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; and received the direction that he must carry out the mandate of the people. The L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; told him, “They have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:7.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. But when Saul proved to be an unfaithful servant, Samuel pronounced the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;’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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Alban has been revered by the people of the Isles since his death in &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;

Saint Germain worked from inner planes as the Master Teacher behind the Neoplatonists. He inspired the Greek philosopher Proclus (c. &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Thomas Whittaker, ''The Neo-Platonists: A Study in the History of Hellenism'', 2d ed. (Cambridge:  Cambridge University Press, 1928), p. 165.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Victor Cousin and Thomas Taylor, trans., ''Two Treatises of Proclus, The Platonic Successor'' (London: n.p., 1833), p. vi.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Henry Thomas and Dana Lee Thomas, ''Living Biographies of Great Scientists'' (Garden City, N.Y.: Nelson Doubleday, 1941), p. 15.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; he said. Bacon eventually left his position as a lecturer at the University of Paris and entered the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;David Wallechinsky, Amy Wallace and Irving Wallace, ''The Book of Predictions'' (New York: William Morrow and Co., 1980), p. 346.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Clements R. Markham, ''Life of Christopher Columbus'' (London: George Philip and Son, 1892), pp. 207–8.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;''Encyclopaedia Britannica'', 15th ed., s.v. “Columbus, Christopher.”&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

“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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[Bible translations|King James Version of the Bible]], determined that the common people should have the benefit of reading God’s Word for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Voltaire, ''Œuvres'', Lettre cxviii, ed. Beuchot, lviii, p. 360, quoted in Isabel Cooper-Oakley, ''The Count of Saint Germain'' (Blauvelt, N.Y.: Rudolf Steiner Publications, 1970), p. 96.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The count is mentioned in the letters of Frederick the Great, Voltaire, Horace Walpole and Casanova, and in newspapers of the day.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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 [[George Washington|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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 being]]s 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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 school]]s. Saint Germain tells us of the benefits of invoking the violet flame:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “Keep My Purple Heart,” {{POWref|31|72}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;

'''Saint Germain''' je [[čohanem]] sedmého paprsku. Spolu se svým  [[dvojplamenem]],vzestoupenou paní mistryní [[Portií]], Bohyní Spravedlnosti, je hierarchou věku [[Vodnáře]]. On je velkým patronem plamene svobody, zatímco Portia je patronkou plamene spravedlnosti. &lt;br /&gt;

Saint Germain is known as a diplomat, expressing the godly qualities of dignity, grace, gentility, poise and true statesmanship through all who will invoke the seventh ray. He is a member of the House of Rakoczy, founded by the [[Great Divine Director]], in whose [[Rakoczy Mansion|Transylvanian mansion]] the [[violet flame]] of freedom is presently enshrined.&lt;br /&gt;

Each two-thousand-year cycle comes under one of the seven rays. [[Jesus]], as chohan of the sixth ray, held the office of hierarch of the age during the last 2000 years. On May 1, 1954, Saint Germain and Portia were crowned as directors for the coming cycle of the seventh ray. Freedom and justice are the yin and yang of the seventh ray of Aquarius, and together with mercy, they provide the foundation for all other attributes of God to be outpictured in this seventh [[dispensation]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain and Portia deliver to the people of God the dispensation for the seventh age and the seventh ray—the [[violet ray]] of freedom, justice, mercy, [[alchemy]] and sacred ritual—a new lifewave, a new civilization, a new energy.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As chohan, or lord, of the seventh ray, Saint Germain initiates our souls in the science and ritual of [[transmutation]] through the violet flame. He is the seventh angel prophesied in Revelation 10:7 who comes to sponsor the finishing of the mystery of God “as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am an ascended being, but it has not ever been thus. Not once or twice but for many incarnations I walked the earth as you now do, confined to mortal frame and the limitations of dimensional existence. I was on [[Lemuria]] and I was on [[Atlantis]]. 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I have seen the choices, and I have chosen. By right choices man and woman establish their position in hierarchy. By choosing to be free in the magnificent will of God, I won my freedom from that mortal round of incarnations and justifications of an existence outside the One. I won my freedom by that flame, that keynote of the Aquarian cycle traced by alchemists of old, that purple elixir the saints do hold....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You are mortal. I am immortal. The only difference between us is that I have chosen to be free, and you have yet to make the choice. We have the same potential, the same resources, the same connection to the One. I have taken mine to forge a God-identity. For long ago, the still small voice within spoke the fiat of Alpha and the living God: “Children of the One, forge your God-identity.” And in the stillness of the night, I heard the call and I answered, “I will!” And when I said, “I will,” all of cosmos echoed, “I will!” The will to be summons the vastness of the potential of being....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I am Saint Germain, and I have come to claim your soul and the fires of your heart for the victory of the Aquarian age. I have set the pattern for your soul’s [[initiation]].... I am on the path of freedom. Take that path, and you will find me there. I am your teacher if you will have me.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “I Have Chosen to Be Free,” {{POWref|18|30}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Over fifty thousand years ago, Saint Germain was the ruler of a golden-age civilization in a fertile country where the Sahara Desert now is. As king-emperor, Saint Germain was a master of the ancient wisdom and of the knowledge of the Matter spheres, and the people looked to him as the standard for their own emerging Godhood. His empire reached a height of beauty, symmetry and perfection unexceeded in the physical octave.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As the people of this civilization became more interested in the pleasures of the senses than in the larger creative plan of the Great God Self, a cosmic council instructed the ruler to withdraw from his empire; henceforth their karma would be their guru. The king held a great banquet for his councillors and public servants. His 576 guests each received a crystal goblet filled with an elixir that was “pure electronic essence.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This elixir was Saint Germain’s gift of soul-protection to them so that when their opportunity would come again in the age of Aquarius to bring back that golden-age civilization, they would remember their I AM Presence and they would become a sign to all people that God can and shall dwell with his people when they make their minds and hearts and souls a fitting habitation for his Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
During the banquet a cosmic master, identifying himself solely by the word Victory upon his brow, addressed the assembly. He warned the people of the crisis they had brought upon themselves by their faithlessness, rebuked them for their neglect of their Great God Source, and prophesied that the empire would come under the rule of a visiting prince who would be seeking to marry the king’s daughter. The king and his family withdrew seven days later to the golden-etheric city counterpart of the civilization. The prince arrived the next day and took over without opposition.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

As high priest of the Violet Flame Temple on the mainland of [[Atlantis]] thirteen thousand years ago, Saint Germain sustained by his invocations and his causal body a pillar of fire, a veritable fountain of violet singing flame, which magnetized people from near and far who came to be set free from every binding condition of body, mind and soul. This they achieved by self-effort through the offering of invocations and the practice of seventh-ray rituals to the sacred fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Those who officiated at the altar of the Violet Flame Temple were schooled in the universal priesthood of the [[Order of Melchizedek]] at Lord [[Zadkiel]]’s retreat, the [[Temple of Purification]], which stood where the island of Cuba now is. This priesthood combines the perfect religion and the perfect science. It was here that both Saint Germain and [[Jesus]] received the anointing, spoken by Zadkiel himself: “Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

Prior to the sinking of Atlantis, while [[Noah]] was yet building his ark and warning the people of [[The Flood|the great Flood]] to come, the Great Divine Director called Saint Germain and a few faithful priests to transport the flame of freedom from the Temple of Purification to a place of safety in the Carpathian foothills in Transylvania. Here they carried on the sacred ritual of expanding the fires of freedom even while mankind’s karma was being exacted by divine decree.&lt;br /&gt;

In succeeding embodiments, Saint Germain and his followers, under the guidance of the Great Divine Director, rediscovered the flame and continued to guard the shrine. Later, the Great Divine Director, assisted by his disciple, established a retreat at the site of the flame and founded the House of Rakoczy, the royal house of Hungary.&lt;br /&gt;

In the eleventh century &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;B&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;C&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;., Saint Germain was embodied as the prophet Samuel. He was an outstanding religious leader in a time of great apostasy, serving as the last of Israel’s judges and the first of her prophets. In those days the judges did not simply arbitrate disputes; they were charismatic leaders who were believed to have direct access to God and who could rally the tribes of Israel against oppressors.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Samuel was the messenger of God’s liberation of the seed of [[Abraham]] from bondage to the corrupt priests, the sons of Eli, and from the Philistines, who had slaughtered the Israelites in battle. He is traditionally named alongside [[Moses]] as a great intercessor. When the nation faced continuing threats from the Philistines, he courageously led the people in a spiritual revival, exhorting them to “return unto the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; with all your hearts” and to “put away the strange gods.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 7:3.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The people repented and beseeched Samuel not to cease calling upon the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; to save them. As he was praying and offering sacrifices, a violent thunderstorm was unleashed, allowing the Israelites to overtake their enemies. The Philistines never rose again in the days of Samuel.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The prophet spent the rest of his life administering justice throughout the land. When he grew old, he appointed his sons to be judges over Israel; but they were corrupt and the people demanded that Samuel give them “a king to judge us like all the nations.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:5.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Deeply grieved, he prayed to the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; and received the direction that he must carry out the mandate of the people. The L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; told him, “They have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:7.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. But when Saul proved to be an unfaithful servant, Samuel pronounced the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;’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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Alban has been revered by the people of the Isles since his death in &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;

Saint Germain worked from inner planes as the Master Teacher behind the Neoplatonists. He inspired the Greek philosopher Proclus (c. &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Thomas Whittaker, ''The Neo-Platonists: A Study in the History of Hellenism'', 2d ed. (Cambridge:  Cambridge University Press, 1928), p. 165.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Victor Cousin and Thomas Taylor, trans., ''Two Treatises of Proclus, The Platonic Successor'' (London: n.p., 1833), p. vi.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Henry Thomas and Dana Lee Thomas, ''Living Biographies of Great Scientists'' (Garden City, N.Y.: Nelson Doubleday, 1941), p. 15.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; he said. Bacon eventually left his position as a lecturer at the University of Paris and entered the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;David Wallechinsky, Amy Wallace and Irving Wallace, ''The Book of Predictions'' (New York: William Morrow and Co., 1980), p. 346.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Clements R. Markham, ''Life of Christopher Columbus'' (London: George Philip and Son, 1892), pp. 207–8.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;''Encyclopaedia Britannica'', 15th ed., s.v. “Columbus, Christopher.”&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

“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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[Bible translations|King James Version of the Bible]], determined that the common people should have the benefit of reading God’s Word for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;See {{TSC}}.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; His mother, however, fearful of an untimely loss of power, refused to acknowledge him as her heir.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Voltaire, ''Œuvres'', Lettre cxviii, ed. Beuchot, lviii, p. 360, quoted in Isabel Cooper-Oakley, ''The Count of Saint Germain'' (Blauvelt, N.Y.: Rudolf Steiner Publications, 1970), p. 96.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The count is mentioned in the letters of Frederick the Great, Voltaire, Horace Walpole and Casanova, and in newspapers of the day.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[George Washington|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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
== Chohan of the Seventh Ray ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 being]]s 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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 school]]s. Saint Germain tells us of the benefits of invoking the violet flame:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “Keep My Purple Heart,” {{POWref|31|72}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;

'''Saint Germain''' is the [[chohan]] of the seventh ray. Together with his [[twin flame]], the ascended lady master [[Portia]], the Goddess of Justice, he is the hierarch of the [[Aquarian age]]. He is the great sponsor of freedom’s flame, while Portia is the sponsor of the flame of justice.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain is known as a diplomat, expressing the godly qualities of dignity, grace, gentility, poise and true statesmanship through all who will invoke the seventh ray. He is a member of the House of Rakoczy, founded by the [[Great Divine Director]], in whose [[Rakoczy Mansion|Transylvanian mansion]] the [[violet flame]] of freedom is presently enshrined.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The name ''Saint Germain'' comes from the Latin ''Sanctus Germanus'', meaning simply “Holy Brother.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Each two-thousand-year cycle comes under one of the seven rays. [[Jesus]], as chohan of the sixth ray, held the office of hierarch of the age during the last 2000 years. On May 1, 1954, Saint Germain and Portia were crowned as directors for the coming cycle of the seventh ray. Freedom and justice are the yin and yang of the seventh ray of Aquarius, and together with mercy, they provide the foundation for all other attributes of God to be outpictured in this seventh [[dispensation]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain and Portia deliver to the people of God the dispensation for the seventh age and the seventh ray—the [[violet ray]] of freedom, justice, mercy, [[alchemy]] and sacred ritual—a new lifewave, a new civilization, a new energy.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As chohan, or lord, of the seventh ray, Saint Germain initiates our souls in the science and ritual of [[transmutation]] through the violet flame. He is the seventh angel prophesied in Revelation 10:7 who comes to sponsor the finishing of the mystery of God “as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain says:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am an ascended being, but it has not ever been thus. Not once or twice but for many incarnations I walked the earth as you now do, confined to mortal frame and the limitations of dimensional existence. I was on [[Lemuria]] and I was on [[Atlantis]]. 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I have seen the choices, and I have chosen. By right choices man and woman establish their position in hierarchy. By choosing to be free in the magnificent will of God, I won my freedom from that mortal round of incarnations and justifications of an existence outside the One. I won my freedom by that flame, that keynote of the Aquarian cycle traced by alchemists of old, that purple elixir the saints do hold....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You are mortal. I am immortal. The only difference between us is that I have chosen to be free, and you have yet to make the choice. We have the same potential, the same resources, the same connection to the One. I have taken mine to forge a God-identity. For long ago, the still small voice within spoke the fiat of Alpha and the living God: “Children of the One, forge your God-identity.” And in the stillness of the night, I heard the call and I answered, “I will!” And when I said, “I will,” all of cosmos echoed, “I will!” The will to be summons the vastness of the potential of being....&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Over fifty thousand years ago, Saint Germain was the ruler of a golden-age civilization in a fertile country where the Sahara Desert now is. As king-emperor, Saint Germain was a master of the ancient wisdom and of the knowledge of the Matter spheres, and the people looked to him as the standard for their own emerging Godhood. His empire reached a height of beauty, symmetry and perfection unexceeded in the physical octave.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As the people of this civilization became more interested in the pleasures of the senses than in the larger creative plan of the Great God Self, a cosmic council instructed the ruler to withdraw from his empire; henceforth their karma would be their guru. The king held a great banquet for his councillors and public servants. His 576 guests each received a crystal goblet filled with an elixir that was “pure electronic essence.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This elixir was Saint Germain’s gift of soul-protection to them so that when their opportunity would come again in the age of Aquarius to bring back that golden-age civilization, they would remember their I AM Presence and they would become a sign to all people that God can and shall dwell with his people when they make their minds and hearts and souls a fitting habitation for his Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
During the banquet a cosmic master, identifying himself solely by the word Victory upon his brow, addressed the assembly. He warned the people of the crisis they had brought upon themselves by their faithlessness, rebuked them for their neglect of their Great God Source, and prophesied that the empire would come under the rule of a visiting prince who would be seeking to marry the king’s daughter. The king and his family withdrew seven days later to the golden-etheric city counterpart of the civilization. The prince arrived the next day and took over without opposition.&lt;br /&gt;

As high priest of the Violet Flame Temple on the mainland of [[Atlantis]] thirteen thousand years ago, Saint Germain sustained by his invocations and his causal body a pillar of fire, a veritable fountain of violet singing flame, which magnetized people from near and far who came to be set free from every binding condition of body, mind and soul. This they achieved by self-effort through the offering of invocations and the practice of seventh-ray rituals to the sacred fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Those who officiated at the altar of the Violet Flame Temple were schooled in the universal priesthood of the [[Order of Melchizedek]] at Lord [[Zadkiel]]’s retreat, the [[Temple of Purification]], which stood where the island of Cuba now is. This priesthood combines the perfect religion and the perfect science. It was here that both Saint Germain and [[Jesus]] received the anointing, spoken by Zadkiel himself: “Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Prior to the sinking of Atlantis, while [[Noah]] was yet building his ark and warning the people of [[The Flood|the great Flood]] to come, the Great Divine Director called Saint Germain and a few faithful priests to transport the flame of freedom from the Temple of Purification to a place of safety in the Carpathian foothills in Transylvania. Here they carried on the sacred ritual of expanding the fires of freedom even while mankind’s karma was being exacted by divine decree.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In succeeding embodiments, Saint Germain and his followers, under the guidance of the Great Divine Director, rediscovered the flame and continued to guard the shrine. Later, the Great Divine Director, assisted by his disciple, established a retreat at the site of the flame and founded the House of Rakoczy, the royal house of Hungary.&lt;br /&gt;

In the eleventh century &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;B&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;C&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;., Saint Germain was embodied as the prophet Samuel. He was an outstanding religious leader in a time of great apostasy, serving as the last of Israel’s judges and the first of her prophets. In those days the judges did not simply arbitrate disputes; they were charismatic leaders who were believed to have direct access to God and who could rally the tribes of Israel against oppressors.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Samuel was the messenger of God’s liberation of the seed of [[Abraham]] from bondage to the corrupt priests, the sons of Eli, and from the Philistines, who had slaughtered the Israelites in battle. He is traditionally named alongside [[Moses]] as a great intercessor. When the nation faced continuing threats from the Philistines, he courageously led the people in a spiritual revival, exhorting them to “return unto the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; with all your hearts” and to “put away the strange gods.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 7:3.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The people repented and beseeched Samuel not to cease calling upon the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; to save them. As he was praying and offering sacrifices, a violent thunderstorm was unleashed, allowing the Israelites to overtake their enemies. The Philistines never rose again in the days of Samuel.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The prophet spent the rest of his life administering justice throughout the land. When he grew old, he appointed his sons to be judges over Israel; but they were corrupt and the people demanded that Samuel give them “a king to judge us like all the nations.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:5.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Deeply grieved, he prayed to the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; and received the direction that he must carry out the mandate of the people. The L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; told him, “They have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:7.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. But when Saul proved to be an unfaithful servant, Samuel pronounced the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;’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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Alban has been revered by the people of the Isles since his death in &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;

Saint Germain worked from inner planes as the Master Teacher behind the Neoplatonists. He inspired the Greek philosopher Proclus (c. &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Thomas Whittaker, ''The Neo-Platonists: A Study in the History of Hellenism'', 2d ed. (Cambridge:  Cambridge University Press, 1928), p. 165.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Victor Cousin and Thomas Taylor, trans., ''Two Treatises of Proclus, The Platonic Successor'' (London: n.p., 1833), p. vi.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Henry Thomas and Dana Lee Thomas, ''Living Biographies of Great Scientists'' (Garden City, N.Y.: Nelson Doubleday, 1941), p. 15.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; he said. Bacon eventually left his position as a lecturer at the University of Paris and entered the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;David Wallechinsky, Amy Wallace and Irving Wallace, ''The Book of Predictions'' (New York: William Morrow and Co., 1980), p. 346.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Clements R. Markham, ''Life of Christopher Columbus'' (London: George Philip and Son, 1892), pp. 207–8.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;''Encyclopaedia Britannica'', 15th ed., s.v. “Columbus, Christopher.”&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
“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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[Bible translations|King James Version of the Bible]], determined that the common people should have the benefit of reading God’s Word for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;See {{TSC}}.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; His mother, however, fearful of an untimely loss of power, refused to acknowledge him as her heir.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Voltaire, ''Œuvres'', Lettre cxviii, ed. Beuchot, lviii, p. 360, quoted in Isabel Cooper-Oakley, ''The Count of Saint Germain'' (Blauvelt, N.Y.: Rudolf Steiner Publications, 1970), p. 96.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The count is mentioned in the letters of Frederick the Great, Voltaire, Horace Walpole and Casanova, and in newspapers of the day.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[George Washington|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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 being]]s 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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 school]]s. Saint Germain tells us of the benefits of invoking the violet flame:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “Keep My Purple Heart,” {{POWref|31|72}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;

'''Saint Germain''' is the [[chohan]] of the seventh ray. Together with his [[twin flame]], the ascended lady master [[Portia]], the Goddess of Justice, he is the hierarch of the [[Aquarian age]].

Saint Germain is known as a diplomat, expressing the godly qualities of dignity, grace, gentility, poise and true statesmanship through all who will invoke the seventh ray. He is a member of the House of Rakoczy, founded by the [[Great Divine Director]], in whose [[Rakoczy Mansion|Transylvanian mansion]] the [[violet flame]] of freedom is presently enshrined.&lt;br /&gt;

Each two-thousand-year cycle comes under one of the seven rays. [[Jesus]], as chohan of the sixth ray, held the office of hierarch of the age during the last 2000 years. On May 1, 1954, Saint Germain and Portia were crowned as directors for the coming cycle of the seventh ray. Freedom and justice are the yin and yang of the seventh ray of Aquarius, and together with mercy, they provide the foundation for all other attributes of God to be outpictured in this seventh [[dispensation]].&lt;br /&gt;

Saint Germain and Portia deliver to the people of God the dispensation for the seventh age and the seventh ray—the [[violet ray]] of freedom, justice, mercy, [[alchemy]] and sacred ritual—a new lifewave, a new civilization, a new energy.&lt;br /&gt;

As chohan, or lord, of the seventh ray, Saint Germain initiates our souls in the science and ritual of [[transmutation]] through the violet flame. He is the seventh angel prophesied in Revelation 10:7 who comes to sponsor the finishing of the mystery of God “as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.”&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am an ascended being, but it has not ever been thus. Not once or twice but for many incarnations I walked the earth as you now do, confined to mortal frame and the limitations of dimensional existence. I was on [[Lemuria]] and I was on [[Atlantis]]. 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I have seen the choices, and I have chosen. By right choices man and woman establish their position in hierarchy. By choosing to be free in the magnificent will of God, I won my freedom from that mortal round of incarnations and justifications of an existence outside the One. I won my freedom by that flame, that keynote of the Aquarian cycle traced by alchemists of old, that purple elixir the saints do hold....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You are mortal. I am immortal. The only difference between us is that I have chosen to be free, and you have yet to make the choice. We have the same potential, the same resources, the same connection to the One. I have taken mine to forge a God-identity. For long ago, the still small voice within spoke the fiat of Alpha and the living God: “Children of the One, forge your God-identity.” And in the stillness of the night, I heard the call and I answered, “I will!” And when I said, “I will,” all of cosmos echoed, “I will!” The will to be summons the vastness of the potential of being....&lt;br /&gt;

I am your teacher if you will have me.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “I Have Chosen to Be Free,” {{POWref|18|30}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Over fifty thousand years ago, Saint Germain was the ruler of a golden-age civilization in a fertile country where the Sahara Desert now is. As king-emperor, Saint Germain was a master of the ancient wisdom and of the knowledge of the Matter spheres, and the people looked to him as the standard for their own emerging Godhood. His empire reached a height of beauty, symmetry and perfection unexceeded in the physical octave.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As the people of this civilization became more interested in the pleasures of the senses than in the larger creative plan of the Great God Self, a cosmic council instructed the ruler to withdraw from his empire; henceforth their karma would be their guru. The king held a great banquet for his councillors and public servants. His 576 guests each received a crystal goblet filled with an elixir that was “pure electronic essence.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This elixir was Saint Germain’s gift of soul-protection to them so that when their opportunity would come again in the age of Aquarius to bring back that golden-age civilization, they would remember their I AM Presence and they would become a sign to all people that God can and shall dwell with his people when they make their minds and hearts and souls a fitting habitation for his Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
During the banquet a cosmic master, identifying himself solely by the word Victory upon his brow, addressed the assembly. He warned the people of the crisis they had brought upon themselves by their faithlessness, rebuked them for their neglect of their Great God Source, and prophesied that the empire would come under the rule of a visiting prince who would be seeking to marry the king’s daughter. The king and his family withdrew seven days later to the golden-etheric city counterpart of the civilization. The prince arrived the next day and took over without opposition.&lt;br /&gt;

As high priest of the Violet Flame Temple on the mainland of [[Atlantis]] thirteen thousand years ago, Saint Germain sustained by his invocations and his causal body a pillar of fire, a veritable fountain of violet singing flame, which magnetized people from near and far who came to be set free from every binding condition of body, mind and soul. This they achieved by self-effort through the offering of invocations and the practice of seventh-ray rituals to the sacred fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Those who officiated at the altar of the Violet Flame Temple were schooled in the universal priesthood of the [[Order of Melchizedek]] at Lord [[Zadkiel]]’s retreat, the [[Temple of Purification]], which stood where the island of Cuba now is. This priesthood combines the perfect religion and the perfect science. It was here that both Saint Germain and [[Jesus]] received the anointing, spoken by Zadkiel himself: “Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Prior to the sinking of Atlantis, while [[Noah]] was yet building his ark and warning the people of [[The Flood|the great Flood]] to come, the Great Divine Director called Saint Germain and a few faithful priests to transport the flame of freedom from the Temple of Purification to a place of safety in the Carpathian foothills in Transylvania. Here they carried on the sacred ritual of expanding the fires of freedom even while mankind’s karma was being exacted by divine decree.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In succeeding embodiments, Saint Germain and his followers, under the guidance of the Great Divine Director, rediscovered the flame and continued to guard the shrine. Later, the Great Divine Director, assisted by his disciple, established a retreat at the site of the flame and founded the House of Rakoczy, the royal house of Hungary.&lt;br /&gt;

In the eleventh century &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;B&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;C&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;., Saint Germain was embodied as the prophet Samuel. He was an outstanding religious leader in a time of great apostasy, serving as the last of Israel’s judges and the first of her prophets. In those days the judges did not simply arbitrate disputes; they were charismatic leaders who were believed to have direct access to God and who could rally the tribes of Israel against oppressors.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Samuel was the messenger of God’s liberation of the seed of [[Abraham]] from bondage to the corrupt priests, the sons of Eli, and from the Philistines, who had slaughtered the Israelites in battle. He is traditionally named alongside [[Moses]] as a great intercessor. When the nation faced continuing threats from the Philistines, he courageously led the people in a spiritual revival, exhorting them to “return unto the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; with all your hearts” and to “put away the strange gods.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 7:3.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The people repented and beseeched Samuel not to cease calling upon the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; to save them. As he was praying and offering sacrifices, a violent thunderstorm was unleashed, allowing the Israelites to overtake their enemies. The Philistines never rose again in the days of Samuel.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The prophet spent the rest of his life administering justice throughout the land. When he grew old, he appointed his sons to be judges over Israel; but they were corrupt and the people demanded that Samuel give them “a king to judge us like all the nations.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:5.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Deeply grieved, he prayed to the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; and received the direction that he must carry out the mandate of the people. The L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; told him, “They have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:7.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. But when Saul proved to be an unfaithful servant, Samuel pronounced the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;’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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Alban has been revered by the people of the Isles since his death in &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;

Saint Germain worked from inner planes as the Master Teacher behind the Neoplatonists. He inspired the Greek philosopher Proclus (c. &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Thomas Whittaker, ''The Neo-Platonists: A Study in the History of Hellenism'', 2d ed.

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Victor Cousin and Thomas Taylor, trans., ''Two Treatises of Proclus, The Platonic Successor'' (London: n.p., 1833), p. vi.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Henry Thomas and Dana Lee Thomas, ''Living Biographies of Great Scientists'' (Garden City, N.Y.: Nelson Doubleday, 1941), p. 15.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; he said. Bacon eventually left his position as a lecturer at the University of Paris and entered the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;David Wallechinsky, Amy Wallace and Irving Wallace, ''The Book of Predictions'' (New York: William Morrow and Co., 1980), p. 346.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Clements R. Markham, ''Life of Christopher Columbus'' (London: George Philip and Son, 1892), pp. 207–8.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;''Encyclopaedia Britannica'', 15th ed., s.v. “Columbus, Christopher.”&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
“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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[Bible translations|King James Version of the Bible]], determined that the common people should have the benefit of reading God’s Word for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;See {{TSC}}.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; His mother, however, fearful of an untimely loss of power, refused to acknowledge him as her heir.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Voltaire, ''Œuvres'', Lettre cxviii, ed. Beuchot, lviii, p. 360, quoted in Isabel Cooper-Oakley, ''The Count of Saint Germain'' (Blauvelt, N.Y.: Rudolf Steiner Publications, 1970), p. 96.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The count is mentioned in the letters of Frederick the Great, Voltaire, Horace Walpole and Casanova, and in newspapers of the day.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[George Washington|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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 being]]s 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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 school]]s. Saint Germain tells us of the benefits of invoking the violet flame:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “Keep My Purple Heart,” {{POWref|31|72}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;

'''Saint Germain''' is the [[chohan]] of the seventh ray. Together with his [[twin flame]], the ascended lady master [[Portia]], the Goddess of Justice, he is the hierarch of the [[Aquarian age]]. He is the great sponsor of freedom’s flame, while Portia is the sponsor of the flame of justice.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain is known as a diplomat, expressing the godly qualities of dignity, grace, gentility, poise and true statesmanship through all who will invoke the seventh ray. He is a member of the House of Rakoczy, founded by the [[Great Divine Director]], in whose [[Rakoczy Mansion|Transylvanian mansion]] the [[violet flame]] of freedom is presently enshrined.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The name ''Saint Germain'' comes from the Latin ''Sanctus Germanus'', meaning simply “Holy Brother.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Each two-thousand-year cycle comes under one of the seven rays. [[Jesus]], as chohan of the sixth ray, held the office of hierarch of the age during the last 2000 years. On May 1, 1954, Saint Germain and Portia were crowned as directors for the coming cycle of the seventh ray. Freedom and justice are the yin and yang of the seventh ray of Aquarius, and together with mercy, they provide the foundation for all other attributes of God to be outpictured in this seventh [[dispensation]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain and Portia deliver to the people of God the dispensation for the seventh age and the seventh ray—the [[violet ray]] of freedom, justice, mercy, [[alchemy]] and sacred ritual—a new lifewave, a new civilization, a new energy.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As chohan, or lord, of the seventh ray, Saint Germain initiates our souls in the science and ritual of [[transmutation]] through the violet flame. He is the seventh angel prophesied in Revelation 10:7 who comes to sponsor the finishing of the mystery of God “as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Saint Germain says:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am an ascended being, but it has not ever been thus. Not once or twice but for many incarnations I walked the earth as you now do, confined to mortal frame and the limitations of dimensional existence. I was on [[Lemuria]] and I was on [[Atlantis]]. 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I have seen the choices, and I have chosen. By right choices man and woman establish their position in hierarchy. By choosing to be free in the magnificent will of God, I won my freedom from that mortal round of incarnations and justifications of an existence outside the One. I won my freedom by that flame, that keynote of the Aquarian cycle traced by alchemists of old, that purple elixir the saints do hold....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You are mortal. I am immortal. The only difference between us is that I have chosen to be free, and you have yet to make the choice. We have the same potential, the same resources, the same connection to the One. I have taken mine to forge a God-identity. For long ago, the still small voice within spoke the fiat of Alpha and the living God: “Children of the One, forge your God-identity.” And in the stillness of the night, I heard the call and I answered, “I will!” And when I said, “I will,” all of cosmos echoed, “I will!” The will to be summons the vastness of the potential of being....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am Saint Germain, and I have come to claim your soul and the fires of your heart for the victory of the Aquarian age. I have set the pattern for your soul’s [[initiation]].... I am on the path of freedom. Take that path, and you will find me there. I am your teacher if you will have me.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “I Have Chosen to Be Free,” {{POWref|18|30}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Over fifty thousand years ago, Saint Germain was the ruler of a golden-age civilization in a fertile country where the Sahara Desert now is. As king-emperor, Saint Germain was a master of the ancient wisdom and of the knowledge of the Matter spheres, and the people looked to him as the standard for their own emerging Godhood. His empire reached a height of beauty, symmetry and perfection unexceeded in the physical octave.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As the people of this civilization became more interested in the pleasures of the senses than in the larger creative plan of the Great God Self, a cosmic council instructed the ruler to withdraw from his empire; henceforth their karma would be their guru. The king held a great banquet for his councillors and public servants. His 576 guests each received a crystal goblet filled with an elixir that was “pure electronic essence.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This elixir was Saint Germain’s gift of soul-protection to them so that when their opportunity would come again in the age of Aquarius to bring back that golden-age civilization, they would remember their I AM Presence and they would become a sign to all people that God can and shall dwell with his people when they make their minds and hearts and souls a fitting habitation for his Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
During the banquet a cosmic master, identifying himself solely by the word Victory upon his brow, addressed the assembly. He warned the people of the crisis they had brought upon themselves by their faithlessness, rebuked them for their neglect of their Great God Source, and prophesied that the empire would come under the rule of a visiting prince who would be seeking to marry the king’s daughter. The king and his family withdrew seven days later to the golden-etheric city counterpart of the civilization. The prince arrived the next day and took over without opposition.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As high priest of the Violet Flame Temple on the mainland of [[Atlantis]] thirteen thousand years ago, Saint Germain sustained by his invocations and his causal body a pillar of fire, a veritable fountain of violet singing flame, which magnetized people from near and far who came to be set free from every binding condition of body, mind and soul. This they achieved by self-effort through the offering of invocations and the practice of seventh-ray rituals to the sacred fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Those who officiated at the altar of the Violet Flame Temple were schooled in the universal priesthood of the [[Order of Melchizedek]] at Lord [[Zadkiel]]’s retreat, the [[Temple of Purification]], which stood where the island of Cuba now is. This priesthood combines the perfect religion and the perfect science. It was here that both Saint Germain and [[Jesus]] received the anointing, spoken by Zadkiel himself: “Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Prior to the sinking of Atlantis, while [[Noah]] was yet building his ark and warning the people of [[The Flood|the great Flood]] to come, the Great Divine Director called Saint Germain and a few faithful priests to transport the flame of freedom from the Temple of Purification to a place of safety in the Carpathian foothills in Transylvania. Here they carried on the sacred ritual of expanding the fires of freedom even while mankind’s karma was being exacted by divine decree.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In succeeding embodiments, Saint Germain and his followers, under the guidance of the Great Divine Director, rediscovered the flame and continued to guard the shrine. Later, the Great Divine Director, assisted by his disciple, established a retreat at the site of the flame and founded the House of Rakoczy, the royal house of Hungary.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In the eleventh century &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;B&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;C&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;., Saint Germain was embodied as the prophet Samuel. He was an outstanding religious leader in a time of great apostasy, serving as the last of Israel’s judges and the first of her prophets. In those days the judges did not simply arbitrate disputes; they were charismatic leaders who were believed to have direct access to God and who could rally the tribes of Israel against oppressors.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Samuel was the messenger of God’s liberation of the seed of [[Abraham]] from bondage to the corrupt priests, the sons of Eli, and from the Philistines, who had slaughtered the Israelites in battle. He is traditionally named alongside [[Moses]] as a great intercessor. When the nation faced continuing threats from the Philistines, he courageously led the people in a spiritual revival, exhorting them to “return unto the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; with all your hearts” and to “put away the strange gods.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 7:3.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The people repented and beseeched Samuel not to cease calling upon the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; to save them. As he was praying and offering sacrifices, a violent thunderstorm was unleashed, allowing the Israelites to overtake their enemies. The Philistines never rose again in the days of Samuel.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The prophet spent the rest of his life administering justice throughout the land. When he grew old, he appointed his sons to be judges over Israel; but they were corrupt and the people demanded that Samuel give them “a king to judge us like all the nations.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:5.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Deeply grieved, he prayed to the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; and received the direction that he must carry out the mandate of the people. The L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; told him, “They have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Sam. 8:7.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. But when Saul proved to be an unfaithful servant, Samuel pronounced the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;’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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Alban has been revered by the people of the Isles since his death in &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;

Saint Germain worked from inner planes as the Master Teacher behind the Neoplatonists. He inspired the Greek philosopher Proclus (c. &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;D&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;. 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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Thomas Whittaker, ''The Neo-Platonists: A Study in the History of Hellenism'', 2d ed. (Cambridge:  Cambridge University Press, 1928), p. 165.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Victor Cousin and Thomas Taylor, trans., ''Two Treatises of Proclus, The Platonic Successor'' (London: n.p., 1833), p. vi.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Henry Thomas and Dana Lee Thomas, ''Living Biographies of Great Scientists'' (Garden City, N.Y.: Nelson Doubleday, 1941), p. 15.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; he said. Bacon eventually left his position as a lecturer at the University of Paris and entered the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;David Wallechinsky, Amy Wallace and Irving Wallace, ''The Book of Predictions'' (New York: William Morrow and Co., 1980), p. 346.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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,”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Clements R. Markham, ''Life of Christopher Columbus'' (London: George Philip and Son, 1892), pp. 207–8.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;''Encyclopaedia Britannica'', 15th ed., s.v. “Columbus, Christopher.”&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
“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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[Bible translations|King James Version of the Bible]], determined that the common people should have the benefit of reading God’s Word for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;See {{TSC}}.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; His mother, however, fearful of an untimely loss of power, refused to acknowledge him as her heir.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.”&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Voltaire, ''Œuvres'', Lettre cxviii, ed. Beuchot, lviii, p. 360, quoted in Isabel Cooper-Oakley, ''The Count of Saint Germain'' (Blauvelt, N.Y.: Rudolf Steiner Publications, 1970), p. 96.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The count is mentioned in the letters of Frederick the Great, Voltaire, Horace Walpole and Casanova, and in newspapers of the day.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 [[George Washington|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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 being]]s 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]].&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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 school]]s. Saint Germain tells us of the benefits of invoking the violet flame:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

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....&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div lang=&amp;quot;en&amp;quot; dir=&amp;quot;ltr&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;mw-content-ltr&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
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.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Saint Germain, “Keep My Purple Heart,” {{POWref|31|72}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

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.&lt;br /&gt;

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]].&lt;br /&gt;

{{Science of the spoken Word/ru}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Слово ГОСПОДА Бога, явленное в изначальных указах&lt;br /&gt;
творения. Высвобождение энергий Слова, или Логоса, через [[Special:MyLanguage/throat chakra|чакру горла]] Сынами Божьими в подтверждение того забытого Слова. Сказано: «От слов своих оправдаешься и от слов своих осудишься».&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Матф. 12:37.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Когда люди снова и снова освящают горловую чакру утверждением Слова Божьего, они становятся орудиями заповедей самого Бога и исполняют закон своего воссоздания по образу Сына. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Origins_and_use&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
== Происхождение и использование ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Первоначально жрецы и жрицы священного огня в [[Special:MyLanguage/Lemuria|Лемурии]] применяли силу изреченного Слова в призывах согласно науке Логоса. Извращение этой науки практикой [[Special:MyLanguage/black magic|черной магии]] случилось позже, в последние дни Лемурии, и привело к разрушению храмов Космической Девы и затоплению континента. (Статуи острова Пасхи являются останками, отмечающими место потрясших Землю в те страшные дни войн богов.) В противоположность этому наука изреченного Слова в своем чистом виде использовалась израильтянами для разрушения стен Иерихона. Ныне ученики используют силу Слова в велениях, утверждениях, молитвах и мантрах для привлечения эссенции священного огня [[Special:MyLanguage/I AM Presence|Я ЕСМЬ Присутствия]], [[Special:MyLanguage/Christ Self|Я Христа]] и [[Special:MyLanguage/cosmic being|Космических Существ]], чтобы направить Божий свет в матрицы [[Special:MyLanguage/transmutation|трансмутации]] и преобразования для конструктивного изменения в планах Материи. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Наука изреченного Слова (вместе с наукой [[Special:MyLanguage/immaculate concept|беспорочного понятия]]) является существенным и ключевым ингредиентом [[Special:MyLanguage/alchemy|алхимии]]. Без Слова изреченного нет никакой алхимии, никакого творения, никакого изменения или взаимодействия в любой части Жизни. Это - философский камень алхимика, который, когда с ним удачно сочетаются тайны сердечного пламени, открывает «написанное новое имя, которого никто не знает, кроме того, кто получает». Благословен тот, кто побеждает противодействие плотского разума, совершенствуясь в практике науки изреченного Слова и принося ГОСПОДУ ежедневные динамические веления, ибо ему Святой Дух даст «вкушать сокровенную манну».&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Откр. 2:17.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Владыка [[Special:MyLanguage/Aquarian age|эпохи Водолея]] [[Special:MyLanguage/Saint Germain|Сен-Жермен]] обучает своих чела мощью изреченного Слова призывать [[Special:MyLanguage/violet flame|фиолетовое пламя]] для прощения грехов и крещения священным огнем в приготовлении к переходу в Высшее Сознание Бога. См. тж. Веление, Мантра.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Affirmation&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== Утверждение ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Assertion that something exists or is true; confirmation or ratification of the truth; solemn declaration. A positive statement, usually beginning with the name of God, “I AM,” that affirms and strengthens the qualities of God within oneself, helping to bring those qualities into physical manifestation. Affirmations are fiats which may be of greater length and more specific detail. They affirm the action of Truth in man—in his being, consciousness, and world. They are used alternately with denials of the reality of [[evil]] in all of its forms. Likewise, they affirm the power of Truth that challenges the activities of the fallen ones.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Call&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== Призыв ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Зов – воззвание, клич, просьба или требование прийти или явиться; восклицание, призывание; взывание о чем-либо, к кому-либо; призыв, обращенный к Господу или от Господа к роду и отпрыскам Его. «И воззвал Господь Бог к Адаму, и сказал ему: где ты?» (Быт.3:9) «Из Египта воззвал Я Сына Моего» (Мтф.2615). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Звать: (к кому) взывать, восклицать, кричать о помощи или содействии; (кого) призывать, подзывать, приглашать; именовать, называть.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Взывать: (о чем, к кому) восклицать, возглашать или гласно обращаться; убеждать, просить; воззывать: (кого, откуда) возвращать, призывать обратно, напр., «Лазарь, выйди вон!». &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Зов – самое прямое средство сообщения между человеком и Богом, и Богом и человеком, часто используемое в чрезвычайной ситуации; напр., О, Боже, помоги мне! Архангел Михаил, возьми повелительство! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The byword of the initiate is “The call compels the answer.” “He shall call upon me and I will answer him.” (Ps. 91:15) “They called upon the Lord, and he answered them.” (Ps. 99:6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Chant&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== Песнопение ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A short, simple melody, especially one characterized by single notes to which an indefinite number of syllables are intoned, used in singing the psalms, canticles, etc., in the church service. In both East and West, the name of God is chanted over and over again in the ritual of atonement whereby the soul of man becomes one with the Spirit of God by intonation of the sound of His name. This is given in Sanskrit as [[AUM]] or AUM TAT SAT AUM and in English as [[I AM THAT I AM]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By sounding the name of God or that of a member of the heavenly hosts, the vibration of the being is simulated and thereby Being itself is drawn to the one chanting. Therefore chants, when properly used, magnetize the Presence, whether universal or individualized, of the Divine Consciousness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Decree&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== Веление ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main-ru|Decree|Веление}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Предопределяющая воля, указ, властное решение, повеление, заявление, закон, распоряжение или религиозное правило; приказ, приказание, наказ; поручение; заповедь. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Гл. Велеть. Решать; заявлять; объявлять решение, волю; определять или давать распоряжение; постановлять, приказывать, указывать, повелевать; распоряжаться властью; а также призывать присутствие Бога, Его свет-энергию-сознание, Его мощь и защиту, чистоту и совершенство. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The decree is the most powerful of all applications to the Godhead. It is the command of the son or daughter of God made in the name of the [[I AM Presence]] and the Christ for the will of the Almighty to come into manifestation as Above, so below. It is the means whereby the kingdom of God becomes a reality here and now through the power of the spoken Word. It may be short or long and usually is marked by a formal preamble and a closing, or acceptance. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Fiat&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== Указ ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An authoritative decree, sanction, order; a pronouncement; a short dynamic invocation or decree usually using the name of God, I AM, as the first word of the fiat, e.g., I AM the Way! I AM the Truth! I AM the Resurrection and the Life!&lt;br /&gt;
Fiats are always exclamations of Christ-power, Christ-wisdom, and Christ-love consciously affirmed and accepted in the here and now.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Invocation&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== Открывающий Призыв ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The act of invoking or calling upon a deity, spirit, etc., for aid, protection, inspiration, or the like; supplication; any petitioning or supplication for help or aid; a form of prayer invoking God's presence, said especially at the beginning of a public ceremony; a call to God or to beings who have become one with God to release [[power, wisdom, and love]] to mankind or to intercede in their behalf; supplication for the flow of light, energy, peace, and harmony to come into manifestation on earth as it is in heaven.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Mantra&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== Мантра ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Мистическая формула или призыв; слово или формула, часто на санскрите, для декламации или пения с целью интенсификации действия [[Special:MyLanguage/Spirit|Духа]] Божьего в [[Special:MyLanguage/Man|человеке]]. Вид [[Special:MyLanguage/Prayer|молитвы]], состоящей из одного или нескольких слов, которую поют или произносят нараспев многократно, чтобы примагнитить определенный аспект Божества или существо, реализующее этот аспект.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Prayer&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== Молитва ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A devout petition to, or any form of spiritual communion with, God or an object of worship; a spiritual communion with God or an object of worship, as in supplication, thanksgiving, adoration, or confession; a formula or sequence of words used in or appointed for praying: the Lord’s Prayer; a petition, entreaty.&lt;br /&gt;

Зов – самое прямое средство сообщения между человеком и Богом, и Богом и человеком, часто используемое в чрезвычайной ситуации; напр., О, Боже, помоги мне! Архангел Михаил, возьми повелительство! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The byword of the initiate is “The call compels the answer.” “He shall call upon me and I will answer him.” (Ps. 91:15) “They called upon the Lord, and he answered them.” (Ps. 99:6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Chant&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== Песнопение ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A short, simple melody, especially one characterized by single notes to which an indefinite number of syllables are intoned, used in singing the psalms, canticles, etc., in the church service. In both East and West, the name of God is chanted over and over again in the ritual of atonement whereby the soul of man becomes one with the Spirit of God by intonation of the sound of His name. This is given in Sanskrit as [[AUM]] or AUM TAT SAT AUM and in English as [[I AM THAT I AM]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By sounding the name of God or that of a member of the heavenly hosts, the vibration of the being is simulated and thereby Being itself is drawn to the one chanting. Therefore chants, when properly used, magnetize the Presence, whether universal or individualized, of the Divine Consciousness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Decree&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== Веление ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Предопределяющая воля, указ, властное решение, повеление, заявление, закон, распоряжение или религиозное правило; приказ, приказание, наказ; поручение; заповедь. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Гл. Велеть. Решать; заявлять; объявлять решение, волю; определять или давать распоряжение; постановлять, приказывать, указывать, повелевать; распоряжаться властью; а также призывать присутствие Бога, Его свет-энергию-сознание, Его мощь и защиту, чистоту и совершенство. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The decree is the most powerful of all applications to the Godhead. It is the command of the son or daughter of God made in the name of the [[I AM Presence]] and the Christ for the will of the Almighty to come into manifestation as Above, so below. It is the means whereby the kingdom of God becomes a reality here and now through the power of the spoken Word. It may be short or long and usually is marked by a formal preamble and a closing, or acceptance. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Fiat&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Fiats are always exclamations of Christ-power, Christ-wisdom, and Christ-love consciously affirmed and accepted in the here and now.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Invocation&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Mantra&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== Мантра ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Мистическая формула или призыв; слово или формула, часто на санскрите, для декламации или пения с целью интенсификации действия [[Special:MyLanguage/Spirit|Духа]] Божьего в [[Special:MyLanguage/Man|человеке]].

{{Science of the spoken Word/-uk}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Слово Господа Бога в оригінальних творчих указах. Вивільнення енергії Слова, або Логоса, через [[Спеціальна:MyLanguage/горлову чакру|чакру горла]] Синами Божими в знак підтвердження цієї забутої сили Слова. Сказано: «Вашими словами Ви будете виправдані, а вашими словами Ви будете засуджені &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Мат. 12:37. &amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Коли люди знову і знову освячують горлову чакру зі ствердженням Слова Божого, вони стають знаряддями заповідей самого Бога що виконують закон їх самовідтворення згідно образу Сина. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Origins_and_use&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
== Походження і використання ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Спочатку священики та жриці священного вогню в [[Special:MyLanguage/Lemuria|Лемурія]] використовували силу вимовленого Слова в зверненнях відповідно науки Логоса. Спотворення цієї науки практикою [[Special:MyLanguage/black magic|чорної магії]] відбулося пізніше, в останні дні Лемурії, і призвело до руйнування храмів Космічної Діви та затоплення континенту. (Статуї острова Пасхи - це залишки, що позначають місце воєн богів похитнутої Землі в ті жахливі дні). Навпаки, чиста наука вимовленого Слова була використана ізраїльтянами, щоб зруйнувати стіни Єрихону. Тепер студенти використовують силу Слова в молитвах, афірмаціях, молитвах і мантрах, щоб залучити дух священного вогню [[Special:MyLanguage/I AM Presence|Я ЄСЬМ Присутності]], [[Special:MyLanguage/Christ Self|Я Христа]] і [[Special:MyLanguage/cosmic being|Космічних Істот]], спрямуйте Боже світло  в матриці [[Special:MyLanguage/transmutation|трансмутації]] і трансформації  для конструктивних змін на планах Матерії. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The science of the spoken Word (together with that of the [[immaculate concept]]) is the essential and key ingredient in all [[alchemy]]. Without the Word spoken, there is no alchemy, no creation, no change or interchange in any part of Life. It is the alchemist’s white stone which, when successfully applied by the secrets of the heart flame, reveals the “new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.” Blessed is he that overcometh the carnal mind’s opposition to the exercise—the practice that makes perfect—of the science of the spoken Word in the offering of daily dynamic decrees unto the Lord, for unto him shall the Holy Spirit “give to eat of the hidden manna.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Rev. 2:17.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The master of the [[Aquarian age]], [[Saint Germain]], teaches his disciples to invoke by the power of the spoken Word the [[violet flame]] for forgiveness of sins and for the baptism of the sacred fire in preparation for transition into the Higher Consciousness of God.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Forms of the spoken Word ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Affirmation ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Assertion that something exists or is true; confirmation or ratification of the truth; solemn declaration. A positive statement, usually beginning with the name of God, “I AM,” that affirms and strengthens the qualities of God within oneself, helping to bring those qualities into physical manifestation. Affirmations are fiats which may be of greater length and more specific detail. They affirm the action of Truth in man—in his being, consciousness, and world. They are used alternately with denials of the reality of [[evil]] in all of its forms. Likewise, they affirm the power of Truth that challenges the activities of the fallen ones.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Call ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''n.'' a demand, a claim, a request or command to come or be present; an instance of asking for something; the act of summoning the Lord, or the Lord’s summoning of his offspring. “And the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; God called unto Adam and said unto him, Where art thou?” (Gen. 3:9) “Out of Egypt have I called my son!” (Matt. 2:15) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''To call''': ''vb.'' to speak in a loud or distinct voice so as to be heard at a distance; to recall from death or the astral plane, e.g., “Lazarus, come forth!”; to utter in a loud or distinct voice; to announce or read loudly or authoritatively. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The call is the most direct means of communication between man and God, and God and man, frequently used in an emergency; e.g., O God, help me! Archangel Michael, take command! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The byword of the initiate is “The call compels the answer.” “He shall call upon me and I will answer him.” (Ps. 91:15) “They called upon the Lord, and he answered them.” (Ps. 99:6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Therefore chants, when properly used, magnetize the Presence, whether universal or individualized, of the Divine Consciousness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Decree ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Decree}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''n.'' a foreordaining will, an edict or fiat, an authoritative decision, declaration, a law, ordinance or religious rule; a command or commandment. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''v.'' to decide, to declare, to determine or order; to ordain, to command or enjoin; to invoke the presence of God, his light/energy/consciousness, his power and protection, purity and perfection. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The decree is the most powerful of all applications to the Godhead. It is the command of the son or daughter of God made in the name of the [[I AM Presence]] and the Christ for the will of the Almighty to come into manifestation as Above, so below. It is the means whereby the kingdom of God becomes a reality here and now through the power of the spoken Word.

Fiats are always exclamations of Christ-power, Christ-wisdom, and Christ-love consciously affirmed and accepted in the here and now.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Invocation ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The act of invoking or calling upon a deity, spirit, etc., for aid, protection, inspiration, or the like; supplication; any petitioning or supplication for help or aid; a form of prayer invoking God's presence, said especially at the beginning of a public ceremony; a call to God or to beings who have become one with God to release [[power, wisdom, and love]] to mankind or to intercede in their behalf; supplication for the flow of light, energy, peace, and harmony to come into manifestation on earth as it is in heaven.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Mantra ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A mystical formula or invocation; a word or formula, often in Sanskrit, to be recited or sung for the purpose of intensifying the action of the Spirit of God in man. A form of prayer consisting of a word or a group of words that is chanted over and over again to magnetize a particular aspect of the Deity or of a being who has actualized that aspect of the Deity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Prayer ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A devout petition to, or any form of spiritual communion with, God or an object of worship; a spiritual communion with God or an object of worship, as in supplication, thanksgiving, adoration, or confession; a formula or sequence of words used in or appointed for praying: the Lord’s Prayer; a petition, entreaty.&lt;br /&gt;

Fiats are always exclamations of Christ-power, Christ-wisdom, and Christ-love consciously affirmed and accepted in the here and now.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Invocation ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;Спочатку священики та жриці священного вогню в [[Special:MyLanguage/Lemuria|Лемурія]] використовували силу вимовленого Слова в зверненнях відповідно науки Логоса. Збочення цієї науки практикою [[Special:MyLanguage/black magic|чорної магії]] відбулося пізніше, в останні дні Лемурії, і призвело до руйнування храмів Космічної Діви та затоплення континенту. (Статуї острова Пасхи - це залишки, що позначають місце воєн богів похитнутої Землі в ті жахливі дні). Навпаки, чиста наука вимовленого Слова була використана ізраїльтянами, щоб зруйнувати стіни Єрихону. Тепер студенти використовують силу Слова в молитвах, афірмаціях, молитвах і мантрах, щоб залучити дух священного вогню [[Special:MyLanguage/I AM Presence|Я ЄСЬМ Присутності]], [[Special:MyLanguage/Christ Self|Я Христа]] і [[Special:MyLanguage/cosmic being|Космічних Істот]], спрямуйте Боже світло  в матриці [[Special:MyLanguage/transmutation|трансмутації]] і трансформації  для конструктивних змін на планах Матерії.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

Слово Господа Бога в оригінальних творчих указах. Вивільнення енергії Слова, або Логоса, через [[Спеціальна:MyLanguage/горлову чакру|чакру горла]] Синами Божими в знак підтвердження цієї забутої сили Слова. Сказано: «Вашими словами Ви будете виправдані, а вашими словами Ви будете засуджені &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Мат. 12:37. &amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Коли люди знову і знову освячують горлову чакру зі ствердженням Слова Божого, вони стають знаряддями заповідей самого Бога що виконують закон їх самовідтворення згідно образу Сина. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Invocations offered by priests and priestesses of the sacred fire on [[Lemuria]] in this power of the spoken Word were originally given according to the science of the Logos. The perversion of this science in the practice of [[black magic]] occurred later, in the last days of Lemuria, bringing about the destruction of the temples of the Cosmic Virgin and the cataclysm that sank the continent. The Easter Island images are the remains, marking the site of the wars of the gods that shook the earth in those terrible days. By contrast, this science of the spoken Word was used in its pure form by the Israelites to fell the walls of Jericho. Today disciples use the power of the Word in decrees, affirmations, prayers, and mantras to draw the essence of the sacred fire from the [[I AM Presence]], the [[Christ Self]], and [[cosmic being]]s to channel God’s light into matrices of [[transmutation]] and transformation for constructive change in the planes of Matter. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The science of the spoken Word (together with that of the [[immaculate concept]]) is the essential and key ingredient in all [[alchemy]]. Without the Word spoken, there is no alchemy, no creation, no change or interchange in any part of Life. It is the alchemist’s white stone which, when successfully applied by the secrets of the heart flame, reveals the “new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.” Blessed is he that overcometh the carnal mind’s opposition to the exercise—the practice that makes perfect—of the science of the spoken Word in the offering of daily dynamic decrees unto the Lord, for unto him shall the Holy Spirit “give to eat of the hidden manna.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Rev. 2:17.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The master of the [[Aquarian age]], [[Saint Germain]], teaches his disciples to invoke by the power of the spoken Word the [[violet flame]] for forgiveness of sins and for the baptism of the sacred fire in preparation for transition into the Higher Consciousness of God.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Forms of the spoken Word ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Affirmation ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Assertion that something exists or is true; confirmation or ratification of the truth; solemn declaration. A positive statement, usually beginning with the name of God, “I AM,” that affirms and strengthens the qualities of God within oneself, helping to bring those qualities into physical manifestation. Affirmations are fiats which may be of greater length and more specific detail. They affirm the action of Truth in man—in his being, consciousness, and world. They are used alternately with denials of the reality of [[evil]] in all of its forms. Likewise, they affirm the power of Truth that challenges the activities of the fallen ones.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Call ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''n.'' a demand, a claim, a request or command to come or be present; an instance of asking for something; the act of summoning the Lord, or the Lord’s summoning of his offspring. “And the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; God called unto Adam and said unto him, Where art thou?” (Gen. 3:9) “Out of Egypt have I called my son!” (Matt. 2:15) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''To call''': ''vb.'' to speak in a loud or distinct voice so as to be heard at a distance; to recall from death or the astral plane, e.g., “Lazarus, come forth!”; to utter in a loud or distinct voice; to announce or read loudly or authoritatively. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The call is the most direct means of communication between man and God, and God and man, frequently used in an emergency; e.g., O God, help me! Archangel Michael, take command! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The byword of the initiate is “The call compels the answer.” “He shall call upon me and I will answer him.” (Ps. 91:15) “They called upon the Lord, and he answered them.” (Ps. 99:6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Chant ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A short, simple melody, especially one characterized by single notes to which an indefinite number of syllables are intoned, used in singing the psalms, canticles, etc., in the church service. In both East and West, the name of God is chanted over and over again in the ritual of atonement whereby the soul of man becomes one with the Spirit of God by intonation of the sound of His name. This is given in Sanskrit as [[AUM]] or AUM TAT SAT AUM and in English as [[I AM THAT I AM]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By sounding the name of God or that of a member of the heavenly hosts, the vibration of the being is simulated and thereby Being itself is drawn to the one chanting. Therefore chants, when properly used, magnetize the Presence, whether universal or individualized, of the Divine Consciousness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Decree ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Decree}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''n.'' a foreordaining will, an edict or fiat, an authoritative decision, declaration, a law, ordinance or religious rule; a command or commandment. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''v.'' to decide, to declare, to determine or order; to ordain, to command or enjoin; to invoke the presence of God, his light/energy/consciousness, his power and protection, purity and perfection. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The decree is the most powerful of all applications to the Godhead. It is the command of the son or daughter of God made in the name of the [[I AM Presence]] and the Christ for the will of the Almighty to come into manifestation as Above, so below. It is the means whereby the kingdom of God becomes a reality here and now through the power of the spoken Word. It may be short or long and usually is marked by a formal preamble and a closing, or acceptance. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Fiat ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An authoritative decree, sanction, order; a pronouncement; a short dynamic invocation or decree usually using the name of God, I AM, as the first word of the fiat, e.g., I AM the Way! I AM the Truth! I AM the Resurrection and the Life!&lt;br /&gt;
Fiats are always exclamations of Christ-power, Christ-wisdom, and Christ-love consciously affirmed and accepted in the here and now.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Invocation ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The act of invoking or calling upon a deity, spirit, etc., for aid, protection, inspiration, or the like; supplication; any petitioning or supplication for help or aid; a form of prayer invoking God's presence, said especially at the beginning of a public ceremony; a call to God or to beings who have become one with God to release [[power, wisdom, and love]] to mankind or to intercede in their behalf; supplication for the flow of light, energy, peace, and harmony to come into manifestation on earth as it is in heaven.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Mantra ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A mystical formula or invocation; a word or formula, often in Sanskrit, to be recited or sung for the purpose of intensifying the action of the Spirit of God in man. A form of prayer consisting of a word or a group of words that is chanted over and over again to magnetize a particular aspect of the Deity or of a being who has actualized that aspect of the Deity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

A devout petition to, or any form of spiritual communion with, God or an object of worship; a spiritual communion with God or an object of worship, as in supplication, thanksgiving, adoration, or confession; a formula or sequence of words used in or appointed for praying: the Lord’s Prayer; a petition, entreaty.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Forms of the spoken Word ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Affirmation ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Assertion that something exists or is true; confirmation or ratification of the truth; solemn declaration. A positive statement, usually beginning with the name of God, “I AM,” that affirms and strengthens the qualities of God within oneself, helping to bring those qualities into physical manifestation. Affirmations are fiats which may be of greater length and more specific detail. They affirm the action of Truth in man—in his being, consciousness, and world. They are used alternately with denials of the reality of [[evil]] in all of its forms. Likewise, they affirm the power of Truth that challenges the activities of the fallen ones.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Call ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''n.'' a demand, a claim, a request or command to come or be present; an instance of asking for something; the act of summoning the Lord, or the Lord’s summoning of his offspring. “And the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; God called unto Adam and said unto him, Where art thou?” (Gen. 3:9) “Out of Egypt have I called my son!” (Matt. 2:15) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''To call''': ''vb.'' to speak in a loud or distinct voice so as to be heard at a distance; to recall from death or the astral plane, e.g., “Lazarus, come forth!”; to utter in a loud or distinct voice; to announce or read loudly or authoritatively. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The call is the most direct means of communication between man and God, and God and man, frequently used in an emergency; e.g., O God, help me! Archangel Michael, take command! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The byword of the initiate is “The call compels the answer.” “He shall call upon me and I will answer him.” (Ps. 91:15) “They called upon the Lord, and he answered them.” (Ps. 99:6)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Chant ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A short, simple melody, especially one characterized by single notes to which an indefinite number of syllables are intoned, used in singing the psalms, canticles, etc., in the church service. In both East and West, the name of God is chanted over and over again in the ritual of atonement whereby the soul of man becomes one with the Spirit of God by intonation of the sound of His name. This is given in Sanskrit as [[AUM]] or AUM TAT SAT AUM and in English as [[I AM THAT I AM]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By sounding the name of God or that of a member of the heavenly hosts, the vibration of the being is simulated and thereby Being itself is drawn to the one chanting. Therefore chants, when properly used, magnetize the Presence, whether universal or individualized, of the Divine Consciousness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Decree ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Decree}}&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The decree is the most powerful of all applications to the Godhead. It is the command of the son or daughter of God made in the name of the [[I AM Presence]] and the Christ for the will of the Almighty to come into manifestation as Above, so below. It is the means whereby the kingdom of God becomes a reality here and now through the power of the spoken Word. It may be short or long and usually is marked by a formal preamble and a closing, or acceptance. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Fiat ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An authoritative decree, sanction, order; a pronouncement; a short dynamic invocation or decree usually using the name of God, I AM, as the first word of the fiat, e.g., I AM the Way! I AM the Truth! I AM the Resurrection and the Life!&lt;br /&gt;
Fiats are always exclamations of Christ-power, Christ-wisdom, and Christ-love consciously affirmed and accepted in the here and now.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Invocation ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The act of invoking or calling upon a deity, spirit, etc., for aid, protection, inspiration, or the like; supplication; any petitioning or supplication for help or aid; a form of prayer invoking God's presence, said especially at the beginning of a public ceremony; a call to God or to beings who have become one with God to release [[power, wisdom, and love]] to mankind or to intercede in their behalf; supplication for the flow of light, energy, peace, and harmony to come into manifestation on earth as it is in heaven.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Mantra ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A mystical formula or invocation; a word or formula, often in Sanskrit, to be recited or sung for the purpose of intensifying the action of the Spirit of God in man.

&lt;br /&gt;
Je psáno v knize Jóbovi: „Vyhlásáš něco a bude ti to ustanoveno; a světlo bude zářit na tvých cestách.“ &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt; Job 22:28.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; výnos je nejmocnější ze všech žádostí o Božství. Je to „příkaz mně“ z Izaiáše 45:11, původní příkaz ke Světlu, který, jako „Lux fiat“, je prvotním právem [[synů a dcer Božích]]. Je autoritativním [[slovem]] Boha, který v člověku mluví jménem [[já JSEM přítomnost]] a živých [[Kristus]], aby na zemi přinesli konstruktivní změnu skrze vůli Boha a jeho vědomí přišlo, na zemi, jako je v nebi – v manifestaci zde níže, jak je uvedeno výše. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
„Dynamický dekret“, který se nabízí jako chvála a prosba k Bohu B&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;OH&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ve vědě [[mluveného slova]], je „účinná vroucí modlitba spravedlivých“&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;James 5:16.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;, která mnohé využívá. terá mnohé využívá. Dynamický dekret je prostředkem, kterým se prosebník ztotožňuje s Božím slovem, dokonce i s původním fiatem Stvořitele „Budiž světlo, a bylo světlo.“ &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt; 1:3.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Through the dynamic decree spoken with joy and love, faith and hope in God’s covenants fulfilled, the supplicant receives the engrafting of the Word&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;James 1:21.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; and experiences the [[transmutation]] by the sacred fire of the [[Holy Spirit]], the “trial by fire”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Cor. 3:13–15; I Pet. 1:7.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; whereby all sin, disease, and death are consumed, yet the righteous soul is preserved. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The decree is the alchemist’s tool and technique for personal and planetary transmutation and self-transcendence. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Parts of a decree ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The decree may be short or long and is usually marked by a formal preamble and a closing or acceptance. [[Saint Germain]] explains the purposes of these parts: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Decrees are generally composed of three parts, and they should be thought of as letters to God:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(1) The salutation of the decree is invocative. It is addressed to the individualized [[I AM Presence|God Presence]] of every son and daughter of God and to those servants of God who comprise the spiritual hierarchy. This salutation (the '''preamble''' to the decree), when reverently given, is a call that compels the answer from the ascended ones. We could no more refuse to answer this summons in our octave than could your firemen refuse to answer a call for help in yours. The purpose of the salutation, then, is to engage immediately the energies of the ascended masters in answering the body of your letter to God which you so lovingly vocalize individually or in unison.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(2) The '''body''' of your letter is composed of statements phrasing your desires, the qualifications you would invoke for self or others, and the supplications that would be involved even in ordinary prayer. Having released the power of the spoken Word through your outer consciousness, your subconscious mind, and your superconscious or Higher Self, you can rest assured that the supreme consciousness of the Ascended Masters whom you have invoked is also concerned with the manifestation of that which you have called forth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(3) Now you come to the close of your decree, the acceptance, the '''sealing''' of the letter in the heart of God, released with a sense of commitment into the realm of the Spirit whence manifestation must return to the world of material form according to the unerring laws of [[alchemy]] (the all-chemistry of God) and precipitation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those who understand the power of the square in mathematics will realize that when groups of individuals are engaged in invoking the energies of God, they are not merely adding power by the number of people in the group on a one-plus-one basis, but they are entering into a very old covenant of the square which squares the release of power to accomplish the spoken Word by the number of individuals who are decreeing and by the number of times that each decree is given.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{SSW}}, chapter 5.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Having released the power of the spoken Word through your outer consciousness, your subconscious mind, and your superconscious or Higher Self, you can rest assured that the supreme consciousness of the Ascended Masters whom you have invoked is also concerned with the manifestation of that which you have called forth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(3) Now you come to the close of your decree, the acceptance, the '''sealing''' of the letter in the heart of God, released with a sense of commitment into the realm of the Spirit whence manifestation must return to the world of material form according to the unerring laws of [[alchemy]] (the all-chemistry of God) and precipitation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those who understand the power of the square in mathematics will realize that when groups of individuals are engaged in invoking the energies of God, they are not merely adding power by the number of people in the group on a one-plus-one basis, but they are entering into a very old covenant of the square which squares the release of power to accomplish the spoken Word by the number of individuals who are decreeing and by the number of times that each decree is given.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{SSW}}, chapter 5.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;lt;languages /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

„Pj.“ předzvěst vůle, edikt nebo fiat, autoritativní rozhodnutí, prohlášení, zákon, nařízení nebo náboženské pravidlo; příkaz nebo přikázání. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;Definition&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
== Definice ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is written in the Book of Job, “Thou shalt decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Job 22:28.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The decree is the most powerful of all applications to the Godhead. It is the “Command ye me” of Isaiah 45:11, the original command to Light, which, as the “Lux fiat,” is the birthright of the [[sons and daughters of God]]. It is the authoritative [[Word]] of God spoken in man by the name of the [[I AM Presence]] and the living [[Christ]] to bring about constructive change on earth through the will of God and his consciousness come, on earth as it is in heaven—in manifestation here below as Above. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The '''dynamic decree''' offered as praise and petition to the L&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;ORD&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; God in the science of the [[spoken Word]] is the “effectual fervent prayer of the righteous”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;James 5:16.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; that availeth much. The dynamic decree is the means whereby the supplicant identifies with the Word of God, even the original fiat of the Creator “Let there be light: and there was light.”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Gen. 1:3.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Through the dynamic decree spoken with joy and love, faith and hope in God’s covenants fulfilled, the supplicant receives the engrafting of the Word&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;James 1:21.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; and experiences the [[transmutation]] by the sacred fire of the [[Holy Spirit]], the “trial by fire”&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;I Cor. 3:13–15; I Pet. 1:7.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; whereby all sin, disease, and death are consumed, yet the righteous soul is preserved. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The decree is the alchemist’s tool and technique for personal and planetary transmutation and self-transcendence. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Parts of a decree ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The decree may be short or long and is usually marked by a formal preamble and a closing or acceptance. [[Saint Germain]] explains the purposes of these parts: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Decrees are generally composed of three parts, and they should be thought of as letters to God:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(1) The salutation of the decree is invocative. It is addressed to the individualized [[I AM Presence|God Presence]] of every son and daughter of God and to those servants of God who comprise the spiritual hierarchy. This salutation (the '''preamble''' to the decree), when reverently given, is a call that compels the answer from the ascended ones. We could no more refuse to answer this summons in our octave than could your firemen refuse to answer a call for help in yours. The purpose of the salutation, then, is to engage immediately the energies of the ascended masters in answering the body of your letter to God which you so lovingly vocalize individually or in unison.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(2) The '''body''' of your letter is composed of statements phrasing your desires, the qualifications you would invoke for self or others, and the supplications that would be involved even in ordinary prayer. Having released the power of the spoken Word through your outer consciousness, your subconscious mind, and your superconscious or Higher Self, you can rest assured that the supreme consciousness of the Ascended Masters whom you have invoked is also concerned with the manifestation of that which you have called forth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(3) Now you come to the close of your decree, the acceptance, the '''sealing''' of the letter in the heart of God, released with a sense of commitment into the realm of the Spirit whence manifestation must return to the world of material form according to the unerring laws of [[alchemy]] (the all-chemistry of God) and precipitation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those who understand the power of the square in mathematics will realize that when groups of individuals are engaged in invoking the energies of God, they are not merely adding power by the number of people in the group on a one-plus-one basis, but they are entering into a very old covenant of the square which squares the release of power to accomplish the spoken Word by the number of individuals who are decreeing and by the number of times that each decree is given.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{SSW}}, chapter 5.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
