We remind you that you may live the more abundant life. We teach new things from day to day; and we clothe the old mysteries in a more palatable form in the hopes that men who on this planet seek to magnify the good in life and pray that nature and nature's God may be made visible unto all will be willing to make any necessary changes in their lives and to accept any new hint from our octave.

Prophet)

It is not in mere words, the release of holy sound, but it is in the release of holy substance that men are made clean by the clean flame of devotion, the clean flame that purifieth and sweepeth away all that is not clear and radiant and pure and lovely, until that which remaineth is God, is Good, the basic Christ Child simplicity - Beloved Lord Maitreya, POW vol. 27 No. 11

"Perfection is a tangible reality here and now. I think that those who think they cannot be perfect imagine that perfection is a straitjacket or a sterile quality lacking any verve or energy or joy or spontaneity. Nay, perfection is the flowering of the lilies, of the gentle violets. Perfection is a smile upon a face.

God does not measure perfection by human standards. After all, how can the human have a standard of perfection? God measures the motive of the heart, the love in the heart." - Serapis Bey, Dossier on the Ascension

And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. - I John 3:1-3

Understand, then, that it is the movement of the great God Self within that is your salvation in this age, that all problems of economy, the ecology, and the government can be resolved if you will take only ten minutes each day to go within and to find your own God Self, to meditate and to use the science of the spoken Word whereby you chant the mantra of the free: "I AM a being of violet fire, I AM the purity God desires!" This is my mantra which I give to you as your initiation into the Aquarian age. - Saint Germain

As long as men remain involved in the ego, no matter what religious study they undertake, no matter what devotion they temporarily manifest, no matter how many good works they do, no matter what level of striving they attain, they will never be free from the illusion of the self that pursues them as a wanton ghost of struggling identity. - God Meru

Like a beautiful and splendid mountain stream, the joy of God flows forth into the world everyday. It sparkles and run over the rocks and impediments. It leaps in the sunlight. It is happy because the joy of God knows nothing but purity, nothing but perfection. It sparkles like diamonds. It flows flows forth from eternity's fountainhead. And it is accepted by the hearts of the saints. They welcome it with joy. They reach down their hands and thirstily they drink of this fountain. - Serapis Bey

We have among us 475 souls - 30 families are Catholics and the rest are all Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs - all different religions. But they all come to our prayers. - Mother Teresa

True humility must be worn eternally. It is not a garment you place upon yourself for a moment, for a day or a year or when passing a test. It is an undergarment with which God himself is clothed, and unless it surround thee, thy hopes of attainment are slim indeed. - Serapis Bey

When you see any form of God in vision, behold in those eyes the consciousness of Infinity. It is a mistake to limit God to any form, to any definition, to any one religion - Paramhansa Yogananda
