Then  in the Great 68 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
Confidence  of your  Power,  to hold  in abeyance,  things 
which  have  been  previously  disturbing,  you  will  find  your 
Infinite  Power  to call your  Presence  forth;  and  It will  flow 
into your  world  just  like  a River  of Light. It will  perform 
Its Activity  in Its own  Harmony,  Perfection  and  Purifying 
Power. It will  allow  the Intelligence  of the Presence  to take 
command  of your  world  and  make  it one of Health,  Beauty, 
Harmony,  Perfection  and  Success. Why  does  mankind  so long  for success  ? It is a Mighty 
Inner  Impulse  which  urges  the  people  on,  and  on,  into 
Greater  and  Greater  Perfection,  if they  but  truly  under-
stood  it. The  Impulse  within  Life  Itself,  is expanding  and 
producing  Greater  and  Greater  Perfection. Your  Life, 
which  is flowing  in and  thru  you  every  moment,  wants  to 
expand  Itself;  and  wants  to produce  more,  more,  and  more 
of Its Perfection  and  Beauty. Will  you  not allow  It to do so ? The Key  is yours! It is in your  hands! Your  Presence  is the 
Power  and  the Intelligence! Allow  It to take  charge,  com-
mand  and  direct  your  world;  and  have  Its Love,  Its Har-
mony,  Beauty  and  Perfection! Our Infinite  Love  abides  and  enfolds  each  one  in Its 
Mighty  Perfecting  Presence! Oh,  that  all the people  could 
quickly  accept  It; could  feel  Its Full  Glory  enveloping 
them. Remember  Those  Children,  for whom  it was  My 
Joy to render  a Service—Bob  and  Rex,  Nada  and  Pearl,  are 
already  using  Those  Wondrous  Powers  of Light  to bless 
mankind. I rejoice  with  you  in the Love  which  you  pour  out to these DISCOURSE  VIII  69 
Blessed  Messengers. Only  in time  to come,  will  you  realize 
how  blessed  they  are;  and  to think,  Oh Beloved  Ones,  there 
have  been  those  among  the children  of Earth,  who  were 
strong  enough  to stand  against  the impact  of human  de-
structive  creation;  and  carry  forth  a Light  in the World, 
then  some  of mankind  hate  them. It is only  the ignorance 
of mankind  which  hates  them,  thru  the lack  of Understand-
ing. One  day,  even  those  who  have  hated  so greatly,  will 
love as greatly  as they  have  hated. Do you  know,  It is a Great  Truth;  that  one  must  have 
loved  very  greatly,  to have  hated  so intensely  ? It is only  a 
force  acting  thru  human  creation. It is not a Reality;  but 
the Love  of your  Presence  which  is Life,  and  is Self-Lum-
inous  Intelligent  Substance,  is Real. Compare  for a moment  the creation  of mankind  which 
in your  expression  is known  as hate  and  its opposite,  which 
is the Heart  of God,  your  "Beloved  Mighty  I AM  Presence," 
or Divine  Love. Let us compare  the two. This  of human  cre-
ation  has no power,  while  that  of Divine  Love  is the Power 
of the Universe  at your  service. Do you  not see in any  kind-
ness of feeling,  any  good  will  to all,  in calling  CON-
SCIOUSLY  the Love  of your  Presence  to bless  all, you  are 
then  acting  on the side  of Infinite  Power;  but to become  ir-
ritated,  means  you  are acting  on the side  of human  creation, 
which  has no power. As you  understand  that,  you  will  see the futility  of allow-
ing human  feeling  to longer  govern  your  world;  for when 
human  creation  is pushed  aside,  and  told  it has no power 70 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
to longer  act in your  world  or affect  you,  then  the Infinite 
Power  says:  "Thank  you! Now  I am ready  to act at your 
Invitation  with  Infiite  Power." So tonight,  We  have  said  to your  human  creation: 
"Henceforth  be gone! You  have  no power! Oh  Light  of 
God,  come  forth  in Your  Infinite  Love  and  take  command 
of the mind  and  body  of each  one,  his or her world  and 
home! Hold  Your  Dominion  and  produce  Your  Active 
Presence  there,  with  Full  Infinite  Power." Please  accept  It 
and let It do Its Perfect  Work. Oh, that  you  might  feel,  when  I speak  These  Words,  they 
are Law  to you  in your  world;  to the degree  that  you  can 
accept  It! I am speaking  These  Words  tonight  and  calling 
the Cosmic  Law  to act in your  world  and  the world  of every 
"I AM"  Student  in America  and  thruout  the World—even 
thru  the mental  and  feeling  world  of those  who  are not 
here. To you,  I am speaking  directly  and  the Three-fold 
Activity  which  is the Three-fold  Flame  of Life,  responds  to 
you. In the Infinite  power  of Light,  I clothe  you! In the Infi-
nite Power  of Divine  Love,  I direct  you! In the  Infinite 
Power  of My Strength,  I sustain  you! In the Infinite  Power 
of My Courage,  I charge  you  and  your  feeling  world,  with 
Such  Serenity,  Courage  and  Infinite  Patience,  that  things 
which  one  disturbed  you,  now  you  may  laugh  at and  say: 
"Be gone"! With  My  Joy,  I charge  your  world  to act there 
with  Infinite  Power,  to give  you  such  Self-control,  Mastery 
and Joy,  the Release  comes  for you  of your  Freedom! DISCOURSE  VIII  71 
Will  you  enter  into  My Infinite  Love  and  let Me clothe 
you with  Infinite  Love  and  Light;  so you  may  be held 
in My Fond  Embrace  of Light;  and  be a Part  of My Love,  to 
hold  Its Infinite  Action  within  and  about  you,  unto  your 
Freedom,  your  Victory  and  Ascension  ? Beloved  Ones,  remember  your  Ascension  is within  your 
reach! It does  not matter  what  your  station  seems  to be at 
this moment. It has nothing  to do with  your  Presence! It 
has not a thing  to do with  what  your  Presence  might  do 
for you  at any  moment;  thru  Sufficient  Out-pouring  of 
Love  and  Harmony  to It. Try  to feel  that! Try  to be Free 
now! Try  to accept  This  which  I offer! It is Real! It is 
Mighty! It is Infinite! In the Fulness  of My  Love,  I enfold  you  all and  every 
student  under  Beloved  Saint  Germain  in America  and  the 
World. May  all Blessed  Students,  who  thru  falsehood  and 
gossip  to which  some  people  have  listened  and  turned  aside 
from  This  Great  Stream  of Life;  again  enter  It and  undo 
any mistakes  which  they  have  made. Then,  again  have  the 
Glory  which  This  Light  and  Understanding  brings  them. With  Infinite  Love,  I enfold  you  always  and  hold  you 
within  My  Radiance,  until  your  Victory  is achieved! I 
thank  you. DISCOURSE  VIII 
DETROIT,  MICHIGAN  ]une  j,  193J. Thy Eternal  Victory  has arrived,  Oh Children  of Earth! Into Its Infinite  Presence,  the "Mighty  I AM,"  you  have 
entered! As you  previously  have  given  your  Life,  thru  your 
attention,  to the appearances  of the outer  world;  so now 
shall  you  give  your  Life  back  to your  Presence,  for the Per-
fection  which  you  will  receive  from  It. The  Law  of Life  is 
so simple;  and  yet so wholly  forgotten  by mankind,  until 
Our Beloved  Saint  Germain  brought  It forth,  to the atten-
tion of all again  in Its Simplicity,  yet in Its Majestic  Action. I congratulate  you,  Oh Beloved  Students  of Detroit  and 
elsewhere,  that  you  have  been  so privileged  as to be inter-
ested  and  feel the Great  Reality  which  It is. It has been  My 
Privilege  to render  you  a Service,  which  will  last  thruout 
the centuries. Will  you  kindly  accept  It, so the Fulness  of Its 
Ever-increasing,  Expanding  Activity  may  take  place  within 
you and  your  world  ? Your  world  should  be very  important  to you,  very  essen-
tial; for it must  become  a World  of Light  or of darkness. You are the decreer,  which  It shall  become. With  the Out-
pouring  of Love  and  Harmony,  will  come  the flood  of Eter-
nal Light  from  your  "Mighty  I AM  Presence,"  which  will 
lift you  into  your  Eternal  Freedom. Your  attention  upon 
the chaos  of the outer  world  of mankind,  will  allow  the 
72 DISCOURSE  VIII  73 
darkness  to surely  fill your  world. Choose! Oh  Beloved 
Ones,  which  you  shall  serve! I wish  to say for your  Protection  in the future,  the un-
fortunate  individuals,  who  put forth  the report,  that  since 
those  three  books  were  in print—"Unveiled  Mysteries," 
"The  Magic  Presence"  and  the " 'I AM'  Discourses,"  Saint 
Germain  is no longer  directing  This  Activity—are  most 
unfortunate! Do not  accept  such  unhappy  falsehoods! In 
This  Activity,  Its Powers  are increasing  from  the  begin-
ning,  as all honest  sincere  students  know. I prompt  you,  because  you  will  have  to meet  this,  when 
the Messengers  have  gone  on to other  fields. Be sure  you 
are strong  enough  to stand  against  such  a false  assertion! I 
tell you  any  such  report  is false! You  must  choose  again! It seems  incredible  human  beings  could  be so unfortunate, 
as to think  they  could  accept  a part  of a thing  and  not the 
whole  of It. I PROMPT  YOU  TO BE ON  GUARD! AND 
STAY  ON  GUARD! Tonight,  it is My Great  Joy and  Privilege  to inform  you, 
that for your  city of Detroit,  there  is being  rendered  a Simi-
lar Service  as in New  York. I have  called  the Angels  of 
the Sword  of Blue  Flame,  to sweep  thru  your  city  every 
eight  hours—to  not only  cleanse  and  purify  the atmosphere, 
generated  by human  Beings'  unfortunate  feeling;  but  to 
seize  and  bind  all entities  who  are fostering  inharmony  in 
any way  among  mankind. You,  as New  York,  will  feel 
a change  in the atmosphere. May  you  rejoice  with  Us in 
This  Service  which  it is Our  Joy to render! 74 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
Little  does  mankind  yet understand,  even  in two  and  a 
half years,  of what  Mighty  Invisible  Power  and  Activity  is 
suddenly  being  used  for Blessing  and  Benefit. Yet  all of 
your  Powers  of any  great  consequence  which  you  use in 
your  outer  world,  are from  the  Invisible. Why  not  AC-
CEPT  FULLY  within  your  feeling  world,  the Great  As-
cended  Masters,  the  Great  Cosmic  Beings,  Who  are  far 
more  Real  than  you,  and  are  operating  with  Limitless 
Power  ? Then  you  will  say to Me:  "Why  do They  allow  mankind 
to get in this  condition"  ? My Dear  Ones,  the Great  Ones 
have  nothing  to do about  it. You  are responsible  for the con-
dition  you  are in. The  Great  Host  of Ascended  Masters  have 
nothing  to do with  it, nor have  the Cosmic  Beings;  but you, 
in the fact  that  you  had  forgotten  your  own  God  Presence, 
the "Mighty  I AM,"  have  grown  into  more  and  more  dense 
vibratory  action;  which  makes  you  less  responsive,  your 
brain,  less  responsive  to the Higher  Vibrations  which  the 
Ascended  Masters  give  forth! Therefore,  you,  mankind 
everywhere  is responsible  for the limitations  of Earth. God 
has nothing  to do with  it! The  Angelic  Hosts  have  nothing 
to do with  it! Neither  do the Ascended  Masters,  the Legions 
of Light  or the Cosmic  Beings! Today,  mankind  is learning  the Responsibility  is on the 
Individual  and  in the Great  Mercy  of the Great  Cosmic 
Light,  there  has come  to you  the Solution,  the Power,  the 
Intelligence  and  the Knowledge;  by which  you  can call  It 
into action  to dissolve  the accumulation  utterly;  and  free DISCOURSE  VIII  75 
yourselves  from  your  own  creations. The  whole  mass  of 
mankind,  can  be set Free  thru  your  Call  and  the Mighty 
Decrees  given;  calling  the Great  Powers  of the "Mighty  I 
AM Presence"  into  action,  in the mental  and  feeling  world 
of mankind. It is the Power  of the Universe—make  no mis-
take about  It! I repeat  to you  tonight,  when  you  call  your  "Mighty  I 
AM Presence"  into  action,  It knows  no resistance  nor inter-
ference. Its Powers  sweep  forward  with  the Power  of the 
Universe  to fulfill  your  Requirements. If the human  under-
stands  and  will  keep  the feeling  harmonized  long  enough, 
so the Power  flows  thru  uninterrupted,  unqualified  by the 
feeling  within  the human  self;  then  shall  you  quickly  enter 
into That  Freedom  and  Glory  of the  Light  which  beats 
your  Heart. It will  fill your  world  quickly,  if you  will  but 
give It a chance! No longer,  Beloved  Ones,  wait  for this. Enter  in by the 
COMMAND  of your  feeling  world! Cause  It to become 
still! Maintain  Harmony,  and  the Light  of your  Presence  at 
your  Call,  will  flood  your  mind,  Being  and  world;  and  you 
will know  what  It means  to worship  God  in Reality. Your 
God  of whom  you  have  had  but fragments  of knowledge, 
you find  is Individualized,  a Mighty  Intelligence! Then 
why  longer  limit  Its Powers  to act in you  and  your  world  ? There  is not a thing  in the world  which  can  limit  you, 
but yourself. The  Power  is here! The  Intelligence  is here! The Knowledge  is before  you;  and  to the degree  that  you 
can accept  Its Full  Power  in your  feeling,  will  It fill your 76 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
world  with  Its Power  and  Mighty  Directing  Intelligence. Let no one  longer  say,  "I can't." When  the Individual  says 
"I can't"  it means  I do not want  to! Do not yield  to it, Be-
loved  Ones! Your  Heart  holds  the Light,  the Anchorage  within  your 
human  form  which  is All-powerful! Accept  Its Fulness 
and allow  It to act! To your  human  intellect  which  is filled 
with  doubts  and  fears,  I say:  Silence  it! once  and  forever! Then  feel  the Release  and  the Freedom  which  will  come  to 
you. Then  when  you  Acknowledge  That  Mighty  Presence, 
feel Its Full  Power  flowing  out  into  your  world! It will 
quickly  purify  and  harmonize  everything  and  let you  be 
FULLY  CONSCIOUS  OF  ITS  VICTORY. No longer,  Beloved  Ones,  need  mankind  wait. Your  Pres-
ence  acts  Instantaneously! To the degree  you  can get your 
human  feeling  still,  harmonious  and  remain  so, will  It fill 
your  world  quickly  or require  the  human  sense  of time. Your  Presence  requires  no time  nor  space! In your  atten-
tion to your  Presence,  remember  surely  and  steadily  the 
limited  sense  of time  and  space  as you  feel  it today,  will 
disappear  from  your  feeling  and  your  consciousness. Many 
of you  who  have  attended  the Classes  of the Messengers, 
already  know  That;  already  realize  in these  ten day Classes, 
it has seemed  almost  as a day many  times. "It does  not seem 
possible,"  I often  hear  you  say to each  other. "Is it possible 
ten days  have  passed?" Do you  not realize,  you  are losing 
the sense  of time  and  space,  which  is your  own  Birthright 
in Reality? DISCOURSE  VIII  77 
Only  as human  Beings  have  limited  themselves  in their 
human  concepts,  have  they  become  more  and  more  limited, 
more  and  more  aware  of time  and  space;  until  they  actually 
feel they  have  not sufficient  time,  to fulfill  the Requirements 
of their  daily  duties  for the Light. Yet,  I tell you  from  actual 
experience,  with  your  Call  to the Presence  and  the flooding 
forth  of Its Energy  unqualified,  every  one of you who  works 
for eight  hours  a day,  could  with  ease  do the work  you  ac-
tually  do now,  in three  hours. That  is what  it means,  to have 
the Activity  of your  "Mighty  I AM  Presence"  acting  within 
and thru  your  human  form. There  will  be hundreds  within 
two years,  who  will  prove  it, beyond  the question  of a doubt. One of the wonderful  students  today,  has told  the Mes-
sengers  repeatedly,  he does  three  to five  times  the work  he 
did, before  he contacted  This  "I AM"  Activity  in less hours 
and with  greater  ease;  and  with  the assurance  within  him 
that his "Mighty  I AM  Presence"  is enabling  him  in every 
action  to render  Divine  Justice  really. If people  in all your 
courts,  your  attorneys,  your  industries,  would  only  under-
stand  and  call  their  "Mighty  I AM  Presence"  into  action; 
how  quick  their  business  and  their  world  would  be filled 
with  Divine  Justice,  Order  and  Successful  Achievement. THERE  IS ONLY  ONE  POWER  OF SUCCESS  AND 
THAT  IS YOUR  "MIGHTY  I AM  PRESENCE"! Whether  you  have  known  It or not,  if your  Success  has been 
great;  it is because  there  was  enough  Stillness  within  your 
feeling  world  and  enough  Silent  Recognition  of God; 
which  enabled  the Power  of the Presence  to release  Its En-78 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
ergy  into  your  world  of activity. Only  the Power  of Your 
Presence  could  give  you  Success. Do you  know,  Beloved  Ones,  why  great  industries  have 
been  formed  thru  one  Individual? Why  the  Great  Law 
enabled  it to be done  ? Why,  I ask you  ? Because  there  could 
not be brought  together  five  people,  who  would  harmonize 
long  enough,  to allow  a Great  Achievement  for Permanent 
Constructive  Accomplishment. Therefore,  the Power  had 
to be concentrated  upon  one  Individual,  so the God  Intel-
ligence  could  act,  uninterfered  with  to establish  your  rail-
roads;  to establish  your  air lines;  to establish  your  great 
industries  everywhere. That  is why  I say to you,  Students  of 
the Light:  Never  again  let your  feelings  criticize  or con-
demn  great  industries;  for if it had  not been  for them,  you 
would  have  been  far less advanced,  than  what  you  are today. Remember  the Advance  of Life  has nothing  to do with 
Individual  personality! The  Advance  of Life  is governed 
by the Great  Cosmic  Law,  and  now  when  the Great  Cosmic 
Law  says  to the Earth:  "Emit  more  Light,"  you  who  repre-
sent the Light—the  ONLY  POWER  thru  which  the Light 
can come,  must  awaken! Thru  your  Awakening,  the Earth 
will emit  more  Light,  to take  its place  in the Great  Scheme 
of Life. If it be not done  by the Call  of the Individuals  to re-
lease  That  Light,  then  the Great  Law  and  Nature,  as you 
call it, will  say to mankind:  "No  longer  will  I submit  to 
your  inharmony,"  and  She  buries  her opponents. Do you  not understand,  Beloved  Ones,  why  great  cata-
clysms  occur? Because  of the building  and  ever-increasing DISCOURSE  VIII  79 
inharmony,  within  the  feeling  world  of mankind  which 
saturates  even  the  Earth. That  is what  has  caused  every 
great  destructive  activity  which  has ever  been  on the Earth, 
and you  are now  facing  the last one! Do you  wish  to exist 
as slaves  to depravity  today,  as the conditions  are in Russia  ? We know  the conditions  which  are there. Don't  let any 
Loyal  American  fail to stand  by his Country  and  his People! You may  wonder  that  One,  Wholly  Free  from  all earthly 
entanglements,  speaks  of the loyalty  to your  country! There 
will be those  who  will  say,  when  this  goes  forth:  "No  Cos-
mic Being  could  have  spoken  Those  Words." I say to those 
critics:  "Be  silent! I speak,  because  I am in the realm  of 
your  world! Because  I know  your  requirements! and  be-
cause  I know,  that  if enough  of mankind  do not wake  up 
and give  Assistance,  so shall  Earth  once  again  bury  you  and 
take her Freedom. That  is what  is before  mankind,  and  I say to all the Be-
loved  "I AM"  Students  thruout  America  and  the World: 
"You  who  have  had  the Courage  to stand  fearless,  in the 
Acknowledgment  of your  Presence;  issue  these  Decrees; 
and give  forth  your  Life  to the Assistance  of America  and 
the World,  will  one  day  reap  the Reward  which  will  be 
Eternal. The reason  I say this  to you,  is because  those  who  have 
touched  This  Light  and  then  turned  to criticize  and  con-
demn  It, will  cry out for Mercy. Oh,  what  an unfortunate 
thing—and  how  they  will  cry for Mercy;  because  of their 
unfortunate  human  creations. It is not a matter  of human 103 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
opinions  any  longer,  but it is a matter  of the need  of the 
World  today. That  Call  is coming  from  the  Hearts  of mankind,  as 
never  before  in the  World. Yet,  the  Assistance  has  been 
Greater  than  ever  in the history  of the World;  for the peo-
ple have  the opportunity  before  them,  in the Understand-
ing of This  Knowledge,  which  will  enable  them  to send 
forth  the Limitless  Power  of God's  Purifying,  Perfecting 
Activity;  and  which  will  enable  them  to render  this  Neces-
sary Service. I say to you,  Beloved  Ones,  your  Beloved  Saint  Germain 
for more  than  two  hundred  years,  has labored  ceaselessly, 
for the Freedom  and  Blessing  of mankind. Why  was  This 
Light  brought  forth  here? Because  in a period  long  past, 
the Glory  and  Perfection  which  was  known  then,  existed 
here  in your  Beloved  Land. Why  do I speak  of America  ? Because  I too know  here  must  come  that  Mighty  Perfection, 
which  was  here  once  before;  and  It is the Final  Activity  for 
the Earth—make  no mistake! Will  you  feel  your  respon-
sibility,  every  one  of you  Beloved  "I AM"  Students;  and  let 
nothing  make  you  waver  or turn  you  aside  from  the Mighty 
Power  of your  Presence  ? Why  have  I asked  the students  everywhere,  to lay aside 
everything  which  they  have  known  before;  and  enter  into 
the Freedom  and  the Glory  of the Books  which  Beloved 
Saint  Germain  has  brought  forth? Because  They  are the 
Greatest  Power,  the  Clearest  Understanding  which  has 
ever come  forth  to mankind. Those  Books  bring  the Pure DISCOURSE  VIII 81 
Love,  Power  and  Mighty  Application  which  allow  the In-
dividual  to go forward;  and  give  This  Freedom  and  As-
sistance  to his fellow-man,  America  and  the World. Unless 
people  will  understand  The  Law,  take  It up and  live  It, 
they will  but delay  the Incoming  Perfection  which  would 
enter  in and  set all mankind  Free. You  have  not so many 
years,  to enter  into  the Final  Decision! I am charging  your  city,  you,  and  the "I AM"  Students 
of America  tonight,  while  I speak  to you,  with  Courage  and 
Power. IF YOU  WILL  ALLOW  IT TO  ACT,  IT WILL 
MAKE  YOU  FEARLESS  AND  DAUNTLESS  IN 
YOUR  STAND  WITH  THE  PRESENCE;  not  only  in 
the Accomplishment  of your  Individual  activities;  but  in 
calling  forth  This  Power  of the "Mighty  I AM  Presence," 
which  will  do the Work  that  is required  for the Freedom 
and Blessing  of all mankind. Why  do I wish  to establish  a Center  here  and  in New 
York? Why  do We  wish  to establish  a Certain  Definite 
Center  of Activity  at certain  points  in the United  States  ? Because  a Great  Pillar  of Light  can  be drawn,  which  will 
pour  out Its Radiance  and  will  one  day  become  the Unfed 
Flame! That  Flame  will  pour  forth  Its Radiance  for hun-
dreds  of miles;  and  enable  mankind  to enter  into  the Glory 
and Freedom  which  is each  one's  Birthright;  altho  so many 
have  wholly  forgotten  That  Birthright! Tonight,  Beloved  Ones,  I speak  to you  as One  in your 
midst;  One  who  loves  humanity;  One  who  is offering  every 
Assistance  the Law  of the human  octave  will  permit;  and 82 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
ever increases  That  Assistance,  as the Cosmic  Light  permits 
It to act for your  Freedom  and  quickly. We  are asking  the 
Co-operation  of you  Beloved  Ones  in the human  octave,  to 
make  This  Call,  so We may  amplify  It to do This  Work 
required. There  is no other  permanent  means  in the World. All other  means  have  been  tried  and  everything  has failed; 
because  mankind  did  not know  the  "Mighty  I AM  Pres-
ence"—which  is the ONLY  SUSTAINING  POWER  there 
is. Once  the people  really  understand  That  Presence,  they 
will know  Its Call  set into  action,  makes  a Permanently  Sus-
tained  Activity;  which  will  continue,  until  all required  is 
accomplished  for  mankind. We  see  and  feel  a Quality 
among  you,  which  can become  a Wondrous  Power  for the 
Light. Will  you  all, every  one  of you,  remember  to keep 
yourselves  harmonized;  so Great  Power  may  flow  thru,  to 
do for you,  your  city  and  nation,  what  is required  ? To the 
degree  you  get out of harmony,  are you  responsible  for the 
failure,  if it comes. Remember,  it is Your  Responsibility. This  is why  I speak  to you  with  such  Earnestness  tonight, 
from  My very  Heart;  to endeavor  by This  Radiance  poured 
forth,  to reach  mankind  in your  city  here. I am trying  to 
reach  those  who  have  not been  here;  and  awaken  their  con-
sciousness,  their  feeling  world,  to begin  to reach  out from 
their  Hearts,  to touch  This  Great  Work  and  let Its Freedom 
flow  into  their  worlds. There  is no Greater  Privilege  of Service  before  mankind 
today,  than  THE  ISSUING  OF  THESE  MIGHTY  DE-
CREES  FOR  THE  FREEDOM  OF  THEMSELVES DISCOURSE  VIII  83 
AND  THE  WORLD;  THE  SEIZING  AND  BINDING 
OF THE  ENTITIES;  THE  USE  OF  THE  VIOLET 
CONSUMING  FLAME;  THE  CALL  OF  THE  TUBE 
OF LIGHT  AROUND  YOU! These  are Mighty  Activities 
which  are imperative  for you! Will  you  use  them  and  be 
Free  ? The  Choice  is yours,  Beloved  Ones. Our Hearts,  Our  Mighty  Light  Rays  are pouring  out  to 
you Unlimited  Assistance! It remains  for you  to accept  or 
reject. We  cannot  be harmed  by disaster  in your  physical 
world,  but your  physical  bodies  can be! We  plead  with  you 
for your  Assistance,  which  enables  all This  to be done. Again  I say,  the choice  is yours! Remember,  Oh  Beloved  Ones,  Our  Love  pours  forth  a 
Limitless  Stream  of Energy  and  Intelligence;  and  It will 
continue  to flood  you  and  your  world  with  the Fulness  of 
Its Power  and  Freedom. As tonight  is the Close  of this  Mighty  Radiance  drawn 
for your  Blessing,  so will  you  take  It into  each  one  of your 
worlds  of activity;  and  feel  It ever  increasing  and  expand-
ing for your  Blessing  and  Success,  your  Health  and  your 
Freedom  ? It is a Gift  of Love  and  the Power  of Our  Divine 
Love  pouring  out  thru  your  Heart,  which  is the  Open 
Door  to all the  Perfection  that  exists;  the  only  means  by 
which  It can  flood  your  world. My Heart  enfolds  you;  My Light  clothes  you;  My Energy 
will sustain  you  and  the Intelligence  of your  "Mighty  I AM 
Presence"  called  into  action,  will  direct  you  unerringly  in 
the Perfect  Service  which  you  should  render. Call  It into 84 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
action  and  if Assistance  be required,  then  We  stand  ready 
to give  That  Assistance. No longer  give  way  to limitations,  Beloved  Ones! Enter 
now  the Gates  of Freedom  and  close  Them  behind  you— 
upon  your  world  of limitations;  so you may  not again  look 
back,  upon  that  world  of your  own  creation  which  has held 
you bound  so long. I thank  you. DISCOURSE  VIII 
PRIVATE  DICTATION  June  19,1937 
Mr. Ballard: 
Beloved  Ones,  you  might  think  this  is just  an enjoyable 
evening  in which  we meet  together;  but  in the Activity 
of the Light,  there  is always  a Deeper  Underlying  Cause; 
for the outer  desires  are often  used  to bring  about  the Bless-
ings which  are to be given. A Three-fold  Activity  will  take  place  for each  one  here. While  the Divine  Director  is dictating  and  doing  His Work, 
which  He has already  begun,  Chananda  and  our Beloved 
Nada  will  also  do a Certain  Work  which  it is not necessary 
to mention. THE  DIVINE  DIRECTOR 
Beloved  Children  of the Light! When  I say Those  Words 
tonight,  I give  Them  a Fuller  Deeper  Quality  than  is ordi-
narily  understood. These  Hearts  present,  who  are reaching 
out so earnestly  and  with  such  determination,  for Freedom 
in every  way,  MUST  FIND  THE  TIME  AND  ASSOCIA-
TION  WHEREIN  THAT  WHICH  IS REQUIRED  TO 
BE GIVEN,  MIGHT  HAVE  NO  INTERFERENCE  IN 
ANY  WAY. You  must  remember,  Beloved  Ones,  in your 
feeling  world,  there  is the Consumer  and  Decreer  of what 
you and  your  world  shall  be. 85 86 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
The unhappy  part  is, that  thru  the accumulation  in the 
feeling  world  of mankind,  obstruction  was  constantly 
charged  forth;  to interfere  with  the various  achievements 
whatever  they  might  be. Once  you  understand,  in your 
Call to the Presence,  you  must  make  your  Outer  Conscious 
Effort  at Self-control,  by governing  the feeling;  then  you 
will quickly  have  the Power  of the Presence  flowing  thru, 
for any  given  purpose  or accomplishment. It is not sufficient  to just continue  to Call  to the Presence, 
without  an Earnest  Sincere  Effort  to control  your  feeling 
from  the outer  standpoint! That  is where  many  students 
have  found  difficulty  in realizing  they  must  make  a certain 
effort  upon  their  own  part  at Self-control;  in order  to give 
the Powerful  Qualification  and  co-operate  with  the Power 
of the Pure  Energy  of the Presence  flowing  forth. You will  find  from  tonight,  as This  is anchored  clearly 
in your  consciousness  and  feeling  world,  that  every  impulse 
which  would  produce  discord,  you  will  be able  to silence 
instantly  and  stop  its action  from  the outer  standpoint;  be-
cause  you  will  know  you  are the Decreer  for your  world, 
and what  shall  act thru  your  feeling. Even  though  there  still  be some  accumulation  in your 
feeling  world,  there  is no reason  why  it should  longer  gov-
ern you. Fortunately,  there  have  been  many  in your  beloved 
city and  the  surrounding  places,  WHO  HAVE  BEEN 
STRONG  ENOUGH  TO  REFUSE  TO  LISTEN  TO 
GOSSIP;  AND  I MEAN  BY  THAT,  ALL  THINGS 
WHICH  ARE  LESS  THAN  THE  PERFECTION  OF DISCOURSE  VIII  87 
THE  PRESENCE;  BECAUSE  AFTER  ALL,  EVERY-
THING  ELSE  IS BUT  GOSSIP. That  is perhaps  a gentle 
term  to use,  but  nevertheless,  only  as Individuals  see it is 
not a personal  thing,  can they  free  themselves. IT DOES  NOT  MATTER  WHAT  THE  CONDI-
TION  OF  THE  APPEARANCE  WORLD  IS! IT IS 
NOT  A MATTER  OF  INDIVIDUALS  OR  PERSON-
ALITIES! IT  IS BUT  A FORCE  ACTING  THRU 
THEM,  OF  WHICH  EITHER  THEY  ARE  UNA-
WARE;  OR  THEY  HAVE  SOMETHING  IN THEIR 
FEELING  WORLD,  WHICH  MAKES  THEM  AN 
EASY  INSTRUMENT  FOR  ITS  USE! The simple,  very  simple  Requirement  to allow  the Pres-
ence  to act, is the reason  why  so many  people  fail to quickly 
grasp  It. The  human  always  trys  to make  things  compli-
cated,  because  of its lack  of understanding. When  the  In-
dividual  realizes  there  is only  ONE  SIMPLE  THING 
NECESSARY,  and  that  is to allow  the Pure  Energy  to flow 
forth  to fill his or her mind,  body,  world  and  activity,  then 
his or her  Calls  are fulfilled  quickly. Then,  each  one  will 
know  to call  the Presence  into  action  and  make  the  Con-
scious  Effort  to control  the  feeling,  will  enable  this  to be 
quickly  done,  to produce  the Perfection  he or she requires. As long  as people  listen  to discordant  things  and  destruc-
tive experiences,  they  will  have  them  in their  worlds. Out 
of the vast  number  of Students  in your  city,  there  are but 
very  few  who  are strong  enough,  just  from  the  Power  of 
Radiation,  to repel  and  refuse  acceptance  or allow  to regis-88 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
ter in their  feeling  world,  a destructive  quality  or experi-
ence  to which  they  may  be listening. That  is where  the 
danger  point  lies  for the Students  today;  because,  if they 
momentarily  listen,  they  are allowing  to register—unknow-
ingly,  in their  feeling  worlds,  the quality  upon  which  their 
attention  rests. That  is why  We have  pled  with  the Students, 
thru  the Messengers,  not to listen  to gossip  or allow  it in 
your  worlds. I began  the  Radiation  in the  San  Francisco  Class. We 
have  been  urging,  and  urging,  and  urging  the  Students 
everywhere;  and  holding  their  attention  repeatedly,  upon 
these  more  Simple  Requirements;  so they  get the Full  Un-
derstanding  of their  own  Individual  Requirements. It is 
necessary  for them  to do this;  if they  are to have  the Perfec-
tion which  the Presence  wants  to pour  forth. Now  remember,  Dear  Ones,  your  Higher  Mental  Body 
knows  absolutely  everything  you  require. It will  produce  it 
for you;  because  It has the Full  Power  of the Presence  and 
does  wield  the Full  Power  to produce  any  Requirement  in 
your  world;  but  It cannot  and  does  not produce  any  de-
structive  quality. As you  enter  the Conscious  Pathway,  the Higher  Mental 
Body  will  not  release  energy  at any  time;  to the Student 
who  has come  into  the Knowledge  of the "I AM,"  to pro-
duce  any  destructive  quality;  or which  It sees  in Its All-
knowing  Power,  would  be used  for destruction! You  will 
say to Me,  then  how  do people  continue  to do things  which 
are destructive  ? Because  of the energy  already  called  forth DISCOURSE  VIII  89 
which  is anchored  in their  worlds,  and  with  which  their 
feeling  world  is charged. When  that  energy  is exhausted, 
they cannot  and  do not go farther,  in their  destructive  ac-
tivities. When  they  are exhausted,  if they  do not know  the 
"I AM  Presence,"  they  do not know  how  to replenish  that 
energy. You have  before  you  in the  outer  world  constant  ex-
amples  of it. The  hypnotist  who  uses  his energy  to hyp-
notize  thru  a period  of years,  becomes  exhausted  and  loses 
all his power;  because  he has used  up all the energy  with 
which  his feeling  world  has been  charged,  and  not know-
ing the Presence  cannot  call  forth  more. The same  is true  with  many  Christian  Science  practi-
tioners. Not  knowing  the difference  between  mental  power 
and the actual  Spiritual  Power,  which  is the Energy  from 
the Presence,  they  go on and  produce  some  astonishing  re-
sults  in their  earlier  experience. They  do not  know  they 
are using  just  mental  power;  but  they  do produce  certain 
results  for the time  being,  and  they  are greatly  elated  over 
the certain  results. Yet,  they  find  later  when  that  energy 
is exhausted,  they  cannot  any  longer  do the work. The evidence  of This  stands  today  in America  before 
thousands  of people. Many,  many  have  come  to the Mes-
sengers  and  have  had  the  reason  explained  and  in most 
instances,  they  have  been  people  who  replaced  the energy 
in the acceptance  of the "I AM  Presence";  because  there  is 
no power  in the world  aside  from  your  "I AM  Presence." There  is no human  being  who  has any power  separate  from 90 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
the Presence. Even  the outer  self  could  not have  any  Life, 
except  That  supplied  by the Presence  which  beats  its Heart. As you  look  at these  things  from  This  Great  Law's  Stand-
point,  they  are simplicity  itself. Our  unhappy  critics  who 
criticize  Us for the  simple  language  used,  are but  held 
within  their  own  intellectual  vanity. Why  should  We  ac-
quiesce  to the human  opinions  of the world;  knowing  the 
Results  which  are produced  by the simplicity  of Our  Lan-
guage  which  has  been  used? We  use  your  terminology 
to make  it more  forceful  to you. Why  should  We try to use 
technical  terminology,  which  does  nothing  but make  con-
fusion  within  Individuals  ? We again  call  your  attention  to some  things  which  We 
want  you  to go forth  and  use tonight,  with  a certain  outer 
consciousness  of your  Presence  acting  thru  your  mind,  body 
and world. I assure  you,  Beloved  Ones,  you  must  be more 
firm  than  ever;  and  refuse  to listen  to discord  or gossip! They  charge  your  world  with  their  qualities;  and  if your 
mind—unknowingly—begins  to revolve  those  qualities 
within  itself,  your  world  is charged  with  them  and  you 
must  reap  the results. When  students  come  to a certain  point  in the Expansion 
of their  Inner  Light,  their  Zeal  and  Great  Desire  for Per-
fection  is often  preyed  upon,  to try to trip  them  up;  but if 
the Students  will  listen  carefully  to the Messengers  in this 
coming  Class  and  use that  which  comes  forth,  every  one 
who  comes  into  it will  be Free! We are determined,  if the Students  will  listen  to Us and DISCOURSE  VIII  91 
be alert,  to give  them,  not only  the Outer  Worded  Expres-
sion of the Application  and  what  It does;  but the Quality 
which  It contains,  will  be anchored  within  their  feeling 
worlds,  to render  the same  Service  for them. At this  time, 
more  than  ordinary  Assistance  must  be given  and  is given; 
but We cannot  compel  the action  of the Individual. We can only—and  often  do—give  vivid  promptings;  but 
Individuals  will  have  no trouble  in calling  the  Presence 
into action,  if they  will  only  not listen  to destructive  discus-
sions. I mean  any form  of gossip,  judgment,  condemnation; 
and all that  kind  of thing  with  which  the atmosphere  of 
humanity  is charged. It is so much  easier  to listen  from  the 
human  standpoint,  than  to repel  it; but one must  some  day 
be firm  enough  to do it, and  We  want  to get every  one  of 
you to that  point,  as with  This  Good  Messenger;  where 
even  though  you  listen  to it, you  do not allow  any  of those 
qualities  to register  in your  feeling  world. Then,  you  will 
find there  will  be no inclination  to get irritated  or disturbed 
about  any  appearance  in the appearance  world. I call  your  attention  to this  tonight  so you  may,  if you 
care to, watch  it! In the various  activities  which  have  taken 
place,  the Light  within  each  one  expands,  thru  the Accept-
ance  of the Power  of the Radiation  which  We  give. That 
Light  becomes  more  and  more  intensified  and  certain 
Groups  are being  drawn  together. Do you  think,  Beloved  Ones,  really  anything  ever  hap-
pens  by chance? Surely  you  cannot  think  that! Even  in the 
smaller  things,  there  must  be and  is a cause  back  of every 92 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
single  thing,  which  you  do in the outer. Now  then,  if you 
have  allowed  some  destructive  quality  to register  in your 
feeling  world;  and  you  are attempting  to do something  de-
structive,  then  if this  pressure  rushes  forward,  where  does 
the fault  lie ? Really  not with  the Individual,  not with  the 
Intelligence  which  sent  it forth;  but  in the lack  of obedi-
ence  to the Law  of Harmony,  is what  allows  discord  to 
register  in your  feeling. So you  will  see by that  why  We  should  not judge;  why 
We should  not condemn;  and  yet,  why  We should  be firm 
and unyielding  in Our  Stand  to the Light,  the Harmony 
and the refusal  to listen  to discordant  destructive  things— 
regardless  of what  they  may  be about. Do you  think  that  is 
asking  too much  ? Is there  anything  of more  importance  in 
all the  Universe,  than  your  Freedom? Is there  anything 
more  wonderful  in all the Universe  than  your  Ascension  ? I think  not! Now  at this  point,  let Me remind  you  of some-
thing,  for you  may  be of Inestimable  Assistance  to others. Many  people,  and  many  among  the  Students,  when  the 
Idea  of the Ascension  came  forth,  thought  they  had  but to 
call to the Presence  and  their  Ascension  would  be forthcom-
ing; regardless  of what  their  attitude  in the outer  world 
was. How  unfortunate  that  any  one  could  think  such  a 
thing,  when  all in Life  is a harmonizing,  refining  process. To think  such  a thing,  for one  who  has lived  discordantly 
just in this  Life,  say for thirty  or forty  years;  just  a simple 
call to the Presence  would  give  that  one  the  Ascension, 
without  any  effort  on such  a person's  part,  is childish  ig-DISCOURSE  VIII  93 
norance. It would  be childishness  and  a great  mistake. There  have  been  thousands  who  really  thought  so and  who 
were  really  very  sincere. There  is no limit,  as the Messengers  have  told  you,  to 
what  the Presence  might  do for you,  at any given  moment. That  is why  I explain  this  to you  tonight. There  are many 
who  are still thinking,  it does  not require  anything  but their 
call to the Presence  to gain  their  Ascension;  regardless  of 
what  is going  on in their  feeling  world. Again  it is childish 
and foolish. Harmony  is the Law  of the Universe! Unless  It is main-
tained  for a sufficient  period  of time,  in the feeling  world 
of each  one,  how  can the energy  flow  forth  unqualified  Pit 
cannot  do it! So from  tonight,  take  your  firm  stand  with  the Presence. While  This  Messenger  does  not wish  Me to use him  as an 
example,  nevertheless  I must  do it. I call  your  attention, 
Beloved  Ones,  to his experience. Up until  he met  his be-
loved  companion,  there  was  no one  in the world  to whom 
he could  turn  for Assistance. There  was  only  one  thing  he 
could  do; and  that  was  stand  and  follow  to the best  of his 
ability,  the Inner  Promptings  which  came. Then,  after  the 
contact  with  Beloved  Saint  Germain,  he was  shown  how 
very accurately,  he had  been  following  Those  Inner  Prompt-
ings. If every  one would  only  follow  Those  Inner  promptings, 
you would  all be able  to hold  to the Light;  but Individuals 
allow  their  attention  to outer  things,  to make  them  waver, 94 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
wonder,  question  or doubt—when  they  are actually  having 
these  Inner  Promptings  all the time;  some  days  not having 
them  quite  so strong  as others. He did not always  have  them 
so strong  that  he was  certain  about  everything,  yet he con-
tinued  to follow  to the best  of his ability. There  was  no 
one to whom  he could  go. That  is why  Beloved  Saint  Ger-
main,  Nada  and  Myself  have  urged  the Students,  to feel the 
Full Power  of their  Presence  to prompt  them;  then  stand  by 
It, until  they  can  have  the Full  Outer  Consciousness  and 
Assurance,  the Presence  would  always  answer;  because  it is 
the Law  of your  Being,  that  It is compelled  to answer. You will  soon  gain  a confidence  in the outer,  so every 
time  you  call  to your  Presence,  instantly  there  will  flow 
forth  Its Mighty  Energy,  the Mighty  Directing  Intelligence, 
the Great  Calm  Certain  Feeling  within  you,  which  gives 
you the Assurance  of Its Accomplishment. Tonight,  as I refer  to these  various  things,  these  Qualities 
are not only  being  anchored,  but charged  into  your  feeling 
world  for action. Oh,  Beloved  Ones,  it is action  We  need 
now! What  do I mean  by that? The  Release  thru  your 
Decrees  into  the mental  and  feeling  world  of mankind,  of 
This  Mighty  Charge  and  Activity. We  repeatedly  say  to 
you,  it is one  of the Greatest  Services  which  can  be ren-
dered  ; and  in your  Mighty  Groups  here,  the Accomplish-
ment  has been  wonderful  I assure  you,  even  in the past  six 
months. The ability  to release  Our  Real  Power  of the Ascended 
Masters'  Divine  Love,  is most  commendable. Each  one  re-DISCOURSE  VIII  95 
leases  the Special  Power  and  Activity  of Divine  Love  re-
quired  in each  Group. Now  mark  you,  Dear  Ones,  please 
notice  this! Everywhere  That  Quality  of the  Ascended 
Masters'  Divine  Love  is released,  It becomes  a Cohesive 
Quality  and  Activity,  which  keeps  drawing  more  and  more 
to Itself! You  have  noticed  the moment  some  discord  comes 
in, how  the dissolving,  disintegrating  process  starts  and  peo-
ple withdraw. Again,  when  the Ascended  Masters'  Divine 
Love  begins  to pour  forth,  which  is the Cohesive  Quality  of 
Life,  then  people  come  back. If only  Beloved  Mankind  and  the  Beloved  Students, 
would  become  cognizant  of these  actions  which  are going 
on before  them  constantly,  how  beautiful  it would  all be; 
but because  of the pressure  of the outer  world,  those  things 
are passed  over  almost  constantly. I ask you,  if you  will,  to 
watch  them  and  see how  very  wonderful  is the Law  of 
Life;  how  Unfailing,  Unerring  It is, in Its Activity  when 
unqualified  by human  discord. Remember  what  Beloved  Saint  Germain  has said  to you 
from  the beginning:  "the  human  ungoverned  is more  vi-
cious  than  the animal  in the jungle." Never  were  Truer 
Words  uttered! Therefore,  why  accept  the human  and  al-
low its disintegrating  activity  to begin  to act in your  world  ? Beloved  Ones,  listen  to Me carefully! Every  moment  you 
are listening  to any kind  of destructive  qualities  in any  con-
versation,  its disintegrating  quality  is then  and  there  acting 
in your  feeling  world;  because  you  admitted  it thru  your 
hearing. You  don't  know  that  from  the human  standpoint, 96 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
but We have  watched  it among  the Earnest  Students. We 
see the cause  and  effects,  but unless  you  will  allow  Us to 
help  you,  how  can We do it ? I am  prompting  you  on these  various  points  tonight, 
because  everywhere  you  go, you  are bound  to meet  these 
things. In humanity's  present  state,  you  cannot  avoid  it. Do not ever  be disturbed  at appearances  which  have  to be 
met and  conquered;  because  until  more  of humanity  come 
into the  Light  of the  "Mighty  I AM  Presence,"  human 
qualities  and  conditions  are always  there  to be met. See how 
easily  these  conditions  are  governed,  when  the  Presence 
comes  into  action;  but how  can the Presence  act, if the feel-
ing world  is charged  with  irritation  and  disturbance  ? Beloved  Ones,  Oh how  Great  Our  Love  is for you! How 
Great  is Our  Rejoicing  at every  single  Victory  which  you 
gain;  and  how  Our  Love  pours  out to you  like  a Mighty 
River,  knowing  sooner  or later  your  Victory  must  come. You think  you  love  each  other,  but how  can you  know  what 
Love  really  is; until  you  really  know  the Love  which  has 
Infinite  Patience  with  the mistakes  of mankind  ? Yet,  when 
We see the Great  Infinite  Patience,  being  gained  among 
many  of the students  and  the Expansion  of the Light  within 
their  Hearts,  how  greatly  We rejoice  and  how  much  more 
We can then  do! Remember,  your  Victory  is certain,  if you  will  just follow 
these  simple  things. It is not complicated—the  Victory  of 
Life! It is so simple  most  of Its Great  Qualities,  because  they 
are so simple,  are believed  to be untrue. Don't  ever  admit DISCOURSE  VIII  97 
failure  in anything,  no matter  what  the appearance  world 
screams  to you! Still  say to it: "You  have  no power"! Oh, 
how  much  you  could  do for your  own  world,  yourselves  and 
others,  when  you  say that! Beloved  Ones,  do not at any  time  or in any  way,  allow 
fear of any kind  to enter  concerning  the Messengers  of This 
"I AM"  Activity! Remember,  the  "Light  of God  never 
fails." There  have  been  a lot of prophecies  made,  since  the 
Messengers  left  here—all  so foolish! Human  gossip  will 
continue,  until  the  Cosmic  Light,  as you  have  been  told, 
sweeps  out all human  selfishness  and  destructive  qualities 
from  the  Earth! So until  that  time,  remember  God,  the 
"Mighty  I AM  Presence"  in you,  is your  Certain  Victory! No other  power  exists  in your  world,  unless  you  continue 
to admit  it. Do you  know,  your  very  attention  having  been  called  to 
your  Presence,  aside  from  your  conscious  call so earnestly  to 
It, would  release  one day Its Full  Power  of Action  into  your 
world! Then  how  much  more  quickly  It will  come,  if you 
refuse  to accept  or listen  to destructive  qualities  of any  kind. Then  keep  calling  your  Presence  into  action,  until  Its 
Whole  Light  floods  your  world. Please  be reminded  again  tonight—there  is no battle  in 
the Achievement  of the Presence. You  call  Its Light  forth 
thru your  mind  and  body,  into  your  feeling  world,—the 
Light  knows  no resistance  nor interference! It simply  floods 
into you  and  out into  your  world;  and  the Fulness  of This 
Light,  being  the Supremacy  of the Universe  and  the Su-98 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
preme  Power  of your  world,  just  moves  into  action  and  all 
else dissolves  before  It. That  is the way  to feel  concerning 
the Activity  of your  Presence. You  don't  have  to struggle! Remember  the  simple  words  so often  used:  "You  shall 
hold  your  Peace  and  the Presence  will  fight  your  battles." It simply  means,  the moving  of the Light  of the Presence 
into your  body,  sweeping  out  all irritation,  all discord  of 
every  kind  and  replacing  it with  all Perfection  which  is the 
Law. No imperfection  can penetrate  That  Light,  and  when 
you call  It into  action—as  a Tube  of Light—as  a Volume 
of Light  flowing  into  your  world,  your  body,  It is quite  a 
different  thing. Please  notice  this  point  carefully:  It is quite  a different 
thing,  than  when  the  Natural  Light  becomes  clothed  by 
your  discordant  qualities! That  Light  has become  shut  in, 
instead  of the discord  being  shut  out. When  you  place  your-
selves  in a Tube  of Light,  do you  not see the power  of hu-
man  qualification,  cannot  reclothe  the Tube  of Light,  which 
you are calling  into  action? Its Volume  is too Great! That 
it why,  if you  once  understand,  when  you  say,  for instance: 
" 'Mighty  I AM  Presence,'  charge  my mind  and  body  with 
Your  Mighty  Energy,  Your  Strength  and  Courage,"  or 
whatever  the quality  is you require,  That  is the Light  of the 
Presence  filling  your  body;  and  Its Volume  is too great  to be 
reclothed  by the quality  which  is within  your  feeling  world 
at that  particular  time. Notice  This  Activity  carefully! When  the Light  comes  in 
naturally  and  flows  thru  the nerves—as  Energy  and  Points DISCOURSE  VIII 99 
of Light  within  the cells  of your  body,  It is not sufficiently 
powerful,  to keep  the quality  in your  feeling  world,  from 
clothing  it with  the density  which  is in your  feeling. When 
you stand  yourself  in This  Tube  of Light  or make  yourself 
a Pillar  of Light,  the Volume  of That  Light  is too great,  to 
be clothed  by the feeling  of the Individual! If you  once  understand  this,  and  as you  stand  yourselves 
in This  Tube  of Light;  or feel yourself  a Tube  or Pillar  of 
Light,  moving  about  in your  daily  activity,  you  will  soon 
find all of your  undesirable  qualities  will  disappear—they 
must  disappear! I want  to say to the Beloved  Ones  here,  tonight,  We shall 
endeavor  to take  all resistance  out of your  feeling  world, 
concerning  your  present  forms;  so they  take  on their  natural 
symmetry. Do not resist  the Perfection  of your  Presence  any 
longer. Just  say:  " 'Mighty  I AM  Presence'  now  this is Your 
Form! Therefore,  it has to be the Symmetry  and  Perfection 
which  You  are! Humanly,  I take  my mind  off of It entirely! Therefore,  'Mighty  I AM  Presence,'  You  take  command  of 
this body  now;  and  bring  it into  Your  Perfect  Symmetry"; 
then  be at Peace  and  rest  about  it. Every  time  the human 
has an opinion,  say:  "Hold  on! You  are to have  no opinion"! and you will  find  the Presence  will  do This  Perfectly! I want  to say:  you  are Free  from  this  hour! Don't  longer 
accept  anything  else,  any  suggestion  of anything  else! If 
you will  just feel This,  and  if you  believe  I speak  the Truth, 
you will  know,  you  will  feel,  your  Freedom  definitely  in 
your  feeling. Therefore,  you  will  feel  a strength  sustained 100 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
within  you,  which  will  give  you  Great  Joy from  this  hour! No matter  what  the outer  appearance  is, do not accept 
again  for a single  instant,  any  lack  of strength,  courage  or 
power;  because  your  Presence  which  beats  your  Heart  is 
your  Power,  Strength,  Energy,  Courage  and  Everything 
Else which  is required,  to give  you  everything. Remember  what  We  have  said:  you  shall  all sing  again 
with  a Greater  Power,  than  you  have  ever  known! Accept 
That  Charge,  if you  will,  and  let Its Full  Power  of Action 
go on within  you. Don't  allow  the appearance  world  to have 
any affect  upon  you  again;  but  just  in Great  Joy  say: 
" 'Mighty  I AM  Presence'  I accept  the  Fulness  of Your 
Power! I say  to all these  appearances  within  or without 
my Being:  4You  have  no power'! Therefore,  I stand  forth 
Free  right  now;  forever  held  in the Embrace  of the Light 
of my 'Mighty  I AM  Presence'  always  Free  and  Victorious." So shall  It be! Beloved  Ones,  We see the Expansion  of your  Light! We 
see your  Victory! Don't  ever  for one  instant,  yield  to any 
appearance  longer. Say  to every  appearance  in the  outer 
world:"  'You  have  no power'! 'Mighty  I AM  Presence'  You 
are the only  Presence,  Power  and  Intelligence  acting  here. Take  command  and  hold  Your  Dominion  and  produce 
Your  Perfection." I could  go on, and  on, and  on, but after  all, it is not so 
much  a matter  of what  We  say,  but what  you  feel  which 
counts! Won't  you  feel tonight,  your  Absolute  Freedom  in 
every  way;  in your  Perfect  Health;  in your  Perfect  Accept-DISCOURSE  VIII 101 
ance  of your  Mighty  Directing  Intelligence  ? It is there  for 
your  constant  use! Saint  Germain,  Nada  and  Myself  thank  you  all for your 
sincere  work;  and  We trust  you  will  realize,  it is only  just 
the beginning  of what  can unfold  from  within. Go on, and 
on, in your  Great  Desire  for Freedom  and  Victory;  but re-
fuse absolutely  to listen  to suggestions  of the outer  world; 
to prophecies  or anything  of that  kind. The  world  is full of 
human  opinions  which  are of no importance;  but  your  at-
tention  to the Presence  from  which  ALL  Perfection  comes, 
is of Very  Great  Importance! Stand  firm  within  It and  have 
Its Blessings. Beloved  Ones,  what  a Very  Wonderful  Thing  it is to give 
Us your  attention. Do you  know,  while  you  are sitting  here, 
you are no more  a part  of the outer  world  of mankind,  than 
if you  had  never  lived  in it ? You  are living  this  two  hours 
in the World  of the Ascended  Masters. Can  you  not feel It ? Can you  not retain  It? You  can,  even  though  you  move 
about  in your  daily  activities  in the outer  world,  still  can 
you retain  the feeling  of these  two  hours  or more. So long,  as the human  conditions  exist  in the  physical 
world  as certain  limitations,  from  which  only  the Ascension 
can free  you,  We  must  wait! Oh,  how  many  times,  We 
would  love  to gather  those  Certain  Individuals  together 
and give  This  Assistance. It can only  be done  occasionally. Will  each  one  of you  hold  the  Memory  of This  Sacred 
within  your  Hearts  always,  for It is greatly  to be cherished  ? Do not be disturbed  by the appearance  world. Human 102 THE  "I AM99  DISCOURSES 
Beings  come  and  go, but the Law  goes  on forever;  and  We 
thank  you  for your  noble  efforts  very  much. Beloved  Ones, 
do you not see how  in every  single  effort  to bring  Enlighten-
ment  to another,  you  retain  a Great  Blessing  within  your-
selves? How  can  human  Beings  go on, when  they  have 
touched  the Light  of their  Presence,  as some  in your  beloved 
city are doing,  thinking  they  are deceiving  others  ? How 
can they  practice  deception  and  go on thinking  it is not 
known  ? How  can Students  of the "I AM"  do this thing,  yet 
there  are those  in your  city  who  think  they  are deceiving 
others. Tonight,  I want  to prompt  you  on those  things,  so you no 
longer  accept  them. Remember,  human  appearances  are 
but the shifting  sands  of the desert. They  have  no power, 
but to confuse  the one  who  accepts  human  reports! Don't 
do it, Dear  Ones! Anything  which  speaks  of less  than  the 
Perfection  of the Presence,  you  don't  want! Therefore,  cast 
it out of your  world! It does  not belong  there! Then,  go on 
in the Great  Joy of your  Presence. I wonder  do you  realize  what  it means  for our  Beloved 
Betty  Mundy  to take  down  all of this,  which  she  has  so 
faithfully  done;  and  our Beloved  Lotus  to get this  ready  for 
the Students  everywhere? In a conversation  of this  kind, 
don't  feel  under  obligation  to use in published  form,  just 
every  word  I have  said;  because  it is done  to bring  Certain 
Activities  within  you;  but it is needed  to stabilize  and  hold 
such  a Firmness,  that  no longer  is there  a single  moment 
yielded  to less than  the Perfection  which  you  want. DISCOURSE  VIII  103 
I thank  all of you  for This  Opportunity,  to again  give 
forth  This  Assistance,  and  one  day  you  will  see how  much 
It has meant;  but  remember,  you  are not separate  from  Us 
and you  know  you  cannot  be separated  from  your  "Mighty 
I AM  Presence"! Therefore,  why  give  power  any  longer 
to human  appearances,  to human  discordant  conversations  ? Why  do it? I am sure,  you  will  all be strong  enough  from 
this hour,  to just  simply  hold  the Wall  of Light  so strong, 
that not a discordant  thing  can  register  within  your  feeling 
world. May  each  one  of you  ere long,  drink  from  the  "Crystal 
Cup." Who  shall  say how  soon,  you  may! Won't  you  accept 
It, until  Its Arrival  in the Physical  Form  is yours  ? Beloved  Ones,  the  Experiences  recorded  of This  Good 
Messenger,  are only  the beginning  of what  you  may  all ex-
perience;  once  all disturbance  is removed  from  your  feeling 
world! It is not difficult! Will  you  give  Me your  Assistance 
just for a few  moments  and  serenely  think  of the Qualities 
which  you  desire  most  quickly  made  manifest  in your  ex-
perience  ? Then  send  that  desire  to your  Presence  to have 
it established,  sustained  and  ail-powerfully  active  hence-
forth  in your  feeling  world  for constant  use,  forever  sus-
tained  ? (silence)  I rejoice  with  you,  each  one. I think  you  do not quite  realize,  whenever  your  attention 
comes  back  to this  evening,  instantly  you  set into  action 
These  Qualities  established  within  your  feeling  world. I 
don't  mean,  you  should  continually  allow  your  mind  to 
dwell  upon  this  evening;  but  as you  naturally  do return  in io4 THE  "1 AM"  DISCOURSES 
attention  to this  evening,  it will  instantly  set into  action 
These  Qualities,  which  I have  established  in you tonight. It 
is a very  tremendous  thing,  if you once  really  realize  it. It is 
quite  the same,  only  It is a more  Powerful  Activity  for you, 
when  you give  your  attention  to the "I AM  Presence''—the 
Law of Its Being,  is It must  act for you. When  you  give  your  attention  to Beloved  Saint  Germain, 
Nada,  Myself  or the Beloved  Jesus,  that  instant,  Our  Qual-
ities are acting  in your  leeling  world. If mankind  really  un-
derstood  this,  how  quickly-enormous,  tremendous  things 
could  he accomplished;  but because  of the pull  of the at-
tention  upon  the outer  world,  it is constantly  shifting,  you 
see. Therefore,  in the realization  that  your  Presence  is your 
Stabilizing  Power,  it holds  you firm  upon  a given  objective, 
upon  a given  call,  then  you see there  is not a thing  you can-
not do. Not  a thing  you  cannot  do or accomplish;  but be 
sure your  motives  are Right. I clothe  you each  one,  Oh Precious  Children  of the Light, 
in My Mantle  of Light  and  Love! In It arc These  Qualities 
which  you  need  for use. Just  wear  That  Mantle  always  lor 
Me, and  let It do Its Perfect  Work  for you! Why  do you 
suppose  Saint  Germain  was  known  in Europe  as the "Man 
with the Indigo  Cape"  ? Do you know  that  color  is the exact 
color  of the Cosmic  Screen  in the Royal  Teton,  and It was 
used for a certain  purpose? I say to you  Beloved  Students,  do you  realize  what  a 
very great  champion  you  have  in Our  Beloved  Lotus? I am 
sure most  of you  realize  the hours,  and  hours,  and  hours, DISCOURSE  VIII  105 
while  most  of humanity  are sleeping,  she is working,  work-
ing, and  working,  for the  Freedom  and  Victory  of the 
Students—  a most  wonderful  thing. Please  do not wonder  why  We have  had  such  an Intimate 
Conversation;  but because  of the Work  to be done  for you, 
just feel  It, forever  active  within  you  and  your  world; 
knowing  definitely,  no longer  can a single  human  quality 
interfere  with  the  steady  forward  progress  to your  Free-
dom,  in every  manner. I think,  Dear  Ones,  I should  say a word  or two  of our 
Beloved  Nada. Really  little  has  been  said  recently,  but  if 
you knew  the Tremendous  Work,  She  is doing  constantly 
among  the Students,  your  Hearts  would  leap  for Joy. Her 
Tireless  Efforts  for each  one! It is so wonderful  to come  to a point  of Understanding 
where  praise  or blame  are alike  of no effect! Where  it is 
a Joyous  Service  in knowing  every  single  effort  is a Steady 
Winning  of your  Eternal  Victory! It is so wonderful  to have 
come  to a point  of Understanding,  where  you  know  the 
word  "failure"  is entirely  out  of your  vocabulary! It does 
not exist,  not for an instant  in the world  of any  one  of you 
under  This  Radiation! It has gone  out of your  world  com-
pletely! Regarding  your  financial  supply,  just  feel  your  Presence 
°pen  the Door  of Its Treasure-house  and  release  into  your 
use everything  which  is required. If channels  be used,  then 
let the Wisdom  of the  Presence  select  those  channels,  so 
there  could  not  be a single  discordant  experience! There 106 THE  "I AM99  DISCOURSES 
could  not be a single  mistake;  there  could  not be a single 
failure  to have  that  which  you  require  for use. It is so Definite! It is so Powerful! Please  feel  It! Rest  in 
It and  know—the  Dynamic  Action  of the Presence  is pro-
ducing  those  results! Why  do I say "Dynamic  Action  of the 
Presence"  ? Because  you  must  feel  that  under  certain  con-
ditions. Until  you  have  a Greater  Sense  of Freedom,  you 
must  feel  it DYNAMICALLY  ACTIVE! Then  at each 
Call,  will  come  the Result. Beloved  Saint  Germain,  Beloved  Nada,  Beloved  Master 
Jesus,  Beloved  Chananda,  Cha  Ara,  David  Lloyd,  Rex, 
Bob,  Nada  and  Pearl;  Mrs.  and  Mr.  Rayborn,  all wish  Me 
to convey  Their  Love  and  Blessings  to you. The  Beloved 
Leto  wants  you  to know,  there  no longer  exists  any  un-
certainty  in you  or your  world. The  Victory  stands  there 
ACTIVE  within  each  one  of you—in  your  feeling  world. May  it have  Its Full  Dominion  now  and  forever  sustained! I thank  you. DISCOURSE  IX  hi

Los  ANGELES,  CALIFORNIA. Children  of the Light! From  far away  India,  I draw  the 
Mighty  Currents,  tonight,  for your  Blessing. You  have  just 
heard  read  to you,  the Experiences  in the  Cave  of Light, 
near  Chananda's  Home  in India. Tonight,  while  It is not 
visible  to you,  a less  powerful  Service  is being  rendered. Instead  of the  Light  as It is there,  I am  using  the  Self-
Luminous  Intelligent  Substance—which  in Co-operation 
with  the Great  Light  drawn,  is Active  within  the room  for 
every  one! Mankind  has  travelled  over  the Earth  in search 
of what  you  are receiving  tonight;  and  even  to those  who 
might  be here  for the first  time,  I say:  "Things  do not just 
happen! All is under  a Great  Divine  Law." Once  the  people  understand  It and  realize,  thru  the 
Power  of Harmony  within  their  Beings,  they  can co-operate 
with  the Great  Law,  to their  Eternal  Gratitude  and  Bless-
ing. Then  they  will  understand  how  Great  is their  Privilege 
in living  in the  present  embodiment  today. The  Eastern 
world,  except  for a few  individuals,  has  known  so little  of 
These  Deeper  Activities. Even  the old occult  method,  did 
not teach  Individuals  how  to gain  their  Freedom. It drew 
their  attention  to certain  Requirements,  but  how  to apply 
the Law  was  quite  another  thing! 107 131 THE  "I AM99  DISCOURSES 
Today,  your  Beloved  Saint  Germain  has  not  left  one 
thing  unsaid  or unexplained,  in the Application  for your 
Victory  and  Freedom.

Summarize the following text section accurately and concisely. Maintain specific details and numerical information, and use anti-repetition mechanisms:

        Then  in the Great 68 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
Confidence  of your  Power,  to hold  in abeyance,  things 
which  have  been  previously  disturbing,  you  will  find  your 
Infinite  Power  to call your  Presence  forth;  and  It will  flow 
into your  world  just  like  a River  of Light. It will  perform 
Its Activity  in Its own  Harmony,  Perfection  and  Purifying 
Power. It will  allow  the Intelligence  of the Presence  to take 
command  of your  world  and  make  it one of Health,  Beauty, 
Harmony,  Perfection  and  Success. Why  does  mankind  so long  for success. It is a Mighty 
Inner  Impulse  which  urges  the  people  on,  and  on,  into 
Greater  and  Greater  Perfection,  if they  but  truly  under-
stood  it. The  Impulse  within  Life  Itself,  is expanding  and 
producing  Greater  and  Greater  Perfection. Your  Life, 
which  is flowing  in and  thru  you  every  moment,  wants  to 
expand  Itself;  and  wants  to produce  more,  more,  and  more 
of Its Perfection  and  Beauty. Will  you  not allow  It to do so. The Key  is yours. It is in your  hands. Your  Presence  is the 
Power  and  the Intelligence. Allow  It to take  charge,  com-
mand  and  direct  your  world;  and  have  Its Love,  Its Har-
mony,  Beauty  and  Perfection. Our Infinite  Love  abides  and  enfolds  each  one  in Its 
Mighty  Perfecting  Presence. Oh,  that  all the people  could 
quickly  accept  It; could  feel  Its Full  Glory  enveloping 
them. Remember  Those  Children,  for whom  it was  My 
Joy to render  a Service—Bob  and  Rex,  Nada  and  Pearl,  are 
already  using  Those  Wondrous  Powers  of Light  to bless 
mankind. I rejoice  with  you  in the Love  which  you  pour  out to these DISCOURSE  VIII  69 
Blessed  Messengers. Only  in time  to come,  will  you  realize 
how  blessed  they  are;  and  to think,  Oh Beloved  Ones,  there 
have  been  those  among  the children  of Earth,  who  were 
strong  enough  to stand  against  the impact  of human  de-
structive  creation;  and  carry  forth  a Light  in the World, 
then  some  of mankind  hate  them. It is only  the ignorance 
of mankind  which  hates  them,  thru  the lack  of Understand-
ing. One  day,  even  those  who  have  hated  so greatly,  will 
love as greatly  as they  have  hated. Do you  know,  It is a Great  Truth;  that  one  must  have 
loved  very  greatly,  to have  hated  so intensely. It is only  a 
force  acting  thru  human  creation. It is not a Reality;  but 
the Love  of your  Presence  which  is Life,  and  is Self-Lum-
inous  Intelligent  Substance,  is Real. Compare  for a moment  the creation  of mankind  which 
in your  expression  is known  as hate  and  its opposite,  which 
is the Heart  of God,  your  "Beloved  Mighty  I AM  Presence," 
or Divine  Love. Let us compare  the two. This  of human  cre-
ation  has no power,  while  that  of Divine  Love  is the Power 
of the Universe  at your  service. Do you  not see in any  kind-
ness of feeling,  any  good  will  to all,  in calling  CON-
SCIOUSLY  the Love  of your  Presence  to bless  all, you  are 
then  acting  on the side  of Infinite  Power;  but to become  ir-
ritated,  means  you  are acting  on the side  of human  creation, 
which  has no power. As you  understand  that,  you  will  see the futility  of allow-
ing human  feeling  to longer  govern  your  world;  for when 
human  creation  is pushed  aside,  and  told  it has no power 70 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
to longer  act in your  world  or affect  you,  then  the Infinite 
Power  says:  "Thank  you. Now  I am ready  to act at your 
Invitation  with  Infiite  Power. " So tonight,  We  have  said  to your  human  creation: 
"Henceforth  be gone. You  have  no power. Oh  Light  of 
God,  come  forth  in Your  Infinite  Love  and  take  command 
of the mind  and  body  of each  one,  his or her world  and 
home. Hold  Your  Dominion  and  produce  Your  Active 
Presence  there,  with  Full  Infinite  Power. " Please  accept  It 
and let It do Its Perfect  Work. Oh, that  you  might  feel,  when  I speak  These  Words,  they 
are Law  to you  in your  world;  to the degree  that  you  can 
accept  It. I am speaking  These  Words  tonight  and  calling 
the Cosmic  Law  to act in your  world  and  the world  of every 
"I AM"  Student  in America  and  thruout  the World—even 
thru  the mental  and  feeling  world  of those  who  are not 
here. To you,  I am speaking  directly  and  the Three-fold 
Activity  which  is the Three-fold  Flame  of Life,  responds  to 
you. In the Infinite  power  of Light,  I clothe  you. In the Infi-
nite Power  of Divine  Love,  I direct  you. In the  Infinite 
Power  of My Strength,  I sustain  you. In the Infinite  Power 
of My Courage,  I charge  you  and  your  feeling  world,  with 
Such  Serenity,  Courage  and  Infinite  Patience,  that  things 
which  one  disturbed  you,  now  you  may  laugh  at and  say: 
"Be gone". With  My  Joy,  I charge  your  world  to act there 
with  Infinite  Power,  to give  you  such  Self-control,  Mastery 
and Joy,  the Release  comes  for you  of your  Freedom. DISCOURSE  VIII  71 
Will  you  enter  into  My Infinite  Love  and  let Me clothe 
you with  Infinite  Love  and  Light;  so you  may  be held 
in My Fond  Embrace  of Light;  and  be a Part  of My Love,  to 
hold  Its Infinite  Action  within  and  about  you,  unto  your 
Freedom,  your  Victory  and  Ascension. Beloved  Ones,  remember  your  Ascension  is within  your 
reach. It does  not matter  what  your  station  seems  to be at 
this moment. It has nothing  to do with  your  Presence. It 
has not a thing  to do with  what  your  Presence  might  do 
for you  at any  moment;  thru  Sufficient  Out-pouring  of 
Love  and  Harmony  to It. Try  to feel  that. Try  to be Free 
now. Try  to accept  This  which  I offer. It is Real. It is 
Mighty. It is Infinite. In the Fulness  of My  Love,  I enfold  you  all and  every 
student  under  Beloved  Saint  Germain  in America  and  the 
World. May  all Blessed  Students,  who  thru  falsehood  and 
gossip  to which  some  people  have  listened  and  turned  aside 
from  This  Great  Stream  of Life;  again  enter  It and  undo 
any mistakes  which  they  have  made. Then,  again  have  the 
Glory  which  This  Light  and  Understanding  brings  them. With  Infinite  Love,  I enfold  you  always  and  hold  you 
within  My  Radiance,  until  your  Victory  is achieved. I 
thank  you. DISCOURSE  VIII 
DETROIT,  MICHIGAN  ]une  j,  193J. Thy Eternal  Victory  has arrived,  Oh Children  of Earth. Into Its Infinite  Presence,  the "Mighty  I AM,"  you  have 
entered. As you  previously  have  given  your  Life,  thru  your 
attention,  to the appearances  of the outer  world;  so now 
shall  you  give  your  Life  back  to your  Presence,  for the Per-
fection  which  you  will  receive  from  It. The  Law  of Life  is 
so simple;  and  yet so wholly  forgotten  by mankind,  until 
Our Beloved  Saint  Germain  brought  It forth,  to the atten-
tion of all again  in Its Simplicity,  yet in Its Majestic  Action. I congratulate  you,  Oh Beloved  Students  of Detroit  and 
elsewhere,  that  you  have  been  so privileged  as to be inter-
ested  and  feel the Great  Reality  which  It is. It has been  My 
Privilege  to render  you  a Service,  which  will  last  thruout 
the centuries. Will  you  kindly  accept  It, so the Fulness  of Its 
Ever-increasing,  Expanding  Activity  may  take  place  within 
you and  your  world. Your  world  should  be very  important  to you,  very  essen-
tial; for it must  become  a World  of Light  or of darkness. You are the decreer,  which  It shall  become. With  the Out-
pouring  of Love  and  Harmony,  will  come  the flood  of Eter-
nal Light  from  your  "Mighty  I AM  Presence,"  which  will 
lift you  into  your  Eternal  Freedom. Your  attention  upon 
the chaos  of the outer  world  of mankind,  will  allow  the 
72 DISCOURSE  VIII  73 
darkness  to surely  fill your  world. Choose. Oh  Beloved 
Ones,  which  you  shall  serve. I wish  to say for your  Protection  in the future,  the un-
fortunate  individuals,  who  put forth  the report,  that  since 
those  three  books  were  in print—"Unveiled  Mysteries," 
"The  Magic  Presence"  and  the " 'I AM'  Discourses,"  Saint 
Germain  is no longer  directing  This  Activity—are  most 
unfortunate. Do not  accept  such  unhappy  falsehoods. In 
This  Activity,  Its Powers  are increasing  from  the  begin-
ning,  as all honest  sincere  students  know. I prompt  you,  because  you  will  have  to meet  this,  when 
the Messengers  have  gone  on to other  fields. Be sure  you 
are strong  enough  to stand  against  such  a false  assertion. I 
tell you  any  such  report  is false. You  must  choose  again. It seems  incredible  human  beings  could  be so unfortunate, 
as to think  they  could  accept  a part  of a thing  and  not the 
whole  of It. I PROMPT  YOU  TO BE ON  GUARD. AND 
STAY  ON  GUARD. Tonight,  it is My Great  Joy and  Privilege  to inform  you, 
that for your  city of Detroit,  there  is being  rendered  a Simi-
lar Service  as in New  York. I have  called  the Angels  of 
the Sword  of Blue  Flame,  to sweep  thru  your  city  every 
eight  hours—to  not only  cleanse  and  purify  the atmosphere, 
generated  by human  Beings'  unfortunate  feeling;  but  to 
seize  and  bind  all entities  who  are fostering  inharmony  in 
any way  among  mankind. You,  as New  York,  will  feel 
a change  in the atmosphere. May  you  rejoice  with  Us in 
This  Service  which  it is Our  Joy to render. 74 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
Little  does  mankind  yet understand,  even  in two  and  a 
half years,  of what  Mighty  Invisible  Power  and  Activity  is 
suddenly  being  used  for Blessing  and  Benefit. Yet  all of 
your  Powers  of any  great  consequence  which  you  use in 
your  outer  world,  are from  the  Invisible. Why  not  AC-
CEPT  FULLY  within  your  feeling  world,  the Great  As-
cended  Masters,  the  Great  Cosmic  Beings,  Who  are  far 
more  Real  than  you,  and  are  operating  with  Limitless 
Power. Then  you  will  say to Me:  "Why  do They  allow  mankind 
to get in this  condition". My Dear  Ones,  the Great  Ones 
have  nothing  to do about  it. You  are responsible  for the con-
dition  you  are in. The  Great  Host  of Ascended  Masters  have 
nothing  to do with  it, nor have  the Cosmic  Beings;  but you, 
in the fact  that  you  had  forgotten  your  own  God  Presence, 
the "Mighty  I AM,"  have  grown  into  more  and  more  dense 
vibratory  action;  which  makes  you  less  responsive,  your 
brain,  less  responsive  to the Higher  Vibrations  which  the 
Ascended  Masters  give  forth. Therefore,  you,  mankind 
everywhere  is responsible  for the limitations  of Earth. God 
has nothing  to do with  it. The  Angelic  Hosts  have  nothing 
to do with  it. Neither  do the Ascended  Masters,  the Legions 
of Light  or the Cosmic  Beings. Today,  mankind  is learning  the Responsibility  is on the 
Individual  and  in the Great  Mercy  of the Great  Cosmic 
Light,  there  has come  to you  the Solution,  the Power,  the 
Intelligence  and  the Knowledge;  by which  you  can call  It 
into action  to dissolve  the accumulation  utterly;  and  free DISCOURSE  VIII  75 
yourselves  from  your  own  creations. The  whole  mass  of 
mankind,  can  be set Free  thru  your  Call  and  the Mighty 
Decrees  given;  calling  the Great  Powers  of the "Mighty  I 
AM Presence"  into  action,  in the mental  and  feeling  world 
of mankind. It is the Power  of the Universe—make  no mis-
take about  It. I repeat  to you  tonight,  when  you  call  your  "Mighty  I 
AM Presence"  into  action,  It knows  no resistance  nor inter-
ference. Its Powers  sweep  forward  with  the Power  of the 
Universe  to fulfill  your  Requirements. If the human  under-
stands  and  will  keep  the feeling  harmonized  long  enough, 
so the Power  flows  thru  uninterrupted,  unqualified  by the 
feeling  within  the human  self;  then  shall  you  quickly  enter 
into That  Freedom  and  Glory  of the  Light  which  beats 
your  Heart. It will  fill your  world  quickly,  if you  will  but 
give It a chance. No longer,  Beloved  Ones,  wait  for this. Enter  in by the 
COMMAND  of your  feeling  world. Cause  It to become 
still. Maintain  Harmony,  and  the Light  of your  Presence  at 
your  Call,  will  flood  your  mind,  Being  and  world;  and  you 
will know  what  It means  to worship  God  in Reality. Your 
God  of whom  you  have  had  but fragments  of knowledge, 
you find  is Individualized,  a Mighty  Intelligence. Then 
why  longer  limit  Its Powers  to act in you  and  your  world. There  is not a thing  in the world  which  can  limit  you, 
but yourself. The  Power  is here. The  Intelligence  is here. The Knowledge  is before  you;  and  to the degree  that  you 
can accept  Its Full  Power  in your  feeling,  will  It fill your 76 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
world  with  Its Power  and  Mighty  Directing  Intelligence. Let no one  longer  say,  "I can't. " When  the Individual  says 
"I can't"  it means  I do not want  to. Do not yield  to it, Be-
loved  Ones. Your  Heart  holds  the Light,  the Anchorage  within  your 
human  form  which  is All-powerful. Accept  Its Fulness 
and allow  It to act. To your  human  intellect  which  is filled 
with  doubts  and  fears,  I say:  Silence  it. once  and  forever. Then  feel  the Release  and  the Freedom  which  will  come  to 
you. Then  when  you  Acknowledge  That  Mighty  Presence, 
feel Its Full  Power  flowing  out  into  your  world. It will 
quickly  purify  and  harmonize  everything  and  let you  be 
FULLY  CONSCIOUS  OF  ITS  VICTORY. No longer,  Beloved  Ones,  need  mankind  wait. Your  Pres-
ence  acts  Instantaneously. To the degree  you  can get your 
human  feeling  still,  harmonious  and  remain  so, will  It fill 
your  world  quickly  or require  the  human  sense  of time. Your  Presence  requires  no time  nor  space. In your  atten-
tion to your  Presence,  remember  surely  and  steadily  the 
limited  sense  of time  and  space  as you  feel  it today,  will 
disappear  from  your  feeling  and  your  consciousness. Many 
of you  who  have  attended  the Classes  of the Messengers, 
already  know  That;  already  realize  in these  ten day Classes, 
it has seemed  almost  as a day many  times. "It does  not seem 
possible,"  I often  hear  you  say to each  other. "Is it possible 
ten days  have  passed. " Do you  not realize,  you  are losing 
the sense  of time  and  space,  which  is your  own  Birthright 
in Reality. DISCOURSE  VIII  77 
Only  as human  Beings  have  limited  themselves  in their 
human  concepts,  have  they  become  more  and  more  limited, 
more  and  more  aware  of time  and  space;  until  they  actually 
feel they  have  not sufficient  time,  to fulfill  the Requirements 
of their  daily  duties  for the Light. Yet,  I tell you  from  actual 
experience,  with  your  Call  to the Presence  and  the flooding 
forth  of Its Energy  unqualified,  every  one of you who  works 
for eight  hours  a day,  could  with  ease  do the work  you  ac-
tually  do now,  in three  hours. That  is what  it means,  to have 
the Activity  of your  "Mighty  I AM  Presence"  acting  within 
and thru  your  human  form. There  will  be hundreds  within 
two years,  who  will  prove  it, beyond  the question  of a doubt. One of the wonderful  students  today,  has told  the Mes-
sengers  repeatedly,  he does  three  to five  times  the work  he 
did, before  he contacted  This  "I AM"  Activity  in less hours 
and with  greater  ease;  and  with  the assurance  within  him 
that his "Mighty  I AM  Presence"  is enabling  him  in every 
action  to render  Divine  Justice  really. If people  in all your 
courts,  your  attorneys,  your  industries,  would  only  under-
stand  and  call  their  "Mighty  I AM  Presence"  into  action; 
how  quick  their  business  and  their  world  would  be filled 
with  Divine  Justice,  Order  and  Successful  Achievement. THERE  IS ONLY  ONE  POWER  OF SUCCESS  AND 
THAT  IS YOUR  "MIGHTY  I AM  PRESENCE". Whether  you  have  known  It or not,  if your  Success  has been 
great;  it is because  there  was  enough  Stillness  within  your 
feeling  world  and  enough  Silent  Recognition  of God; 
which  enabled  the Power  of the Presence  to release  Its En-78 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
ergy  into  your  world  of activity. Only  the Power  of Your 
Presence  could  give  you  Success. Do you  know,  Beloved  Ones,  why  great  industries  have 
been  formed  thru  one  Individual. Why  the  Great  Law 
enabled  it to be done. Why,  I ask you. Because  there  could 
not be brought  together  five  people,  who  would  harmonize 
long  enough,  to allow  a Great  Achievement  for Permanent 
Constructive  Accomplishment. Therefore,  the Power  had 
to be concentrated  upon  one  Individual,  so the God  Intel-
ligence  could  act,  uninterfered  with  to establish  your  rail-
roads;  to establish  your  air lines;  to establish  your  great 
industries  everywhere. That  is why  I say to you,  Students  of 
the Light:  Never  again  let your  feelings  criticize  or con-
demn  great  industries;  for if it had  not been  for them,  you 
would  have  been  far less advanced,  than  what  you  are today. Remember  the Advance  of Life  has nothing  to do with 
Individual  personality. The  Advance  of Life  is governed 
by the Great  Cosmic  Law,  and  now  when  the Great  Cosmic 
Law  says  to the Earth:  "Emit  more  Light,"  you  who  repre-
sent the Light—the  ONLY  POWER  thru  which  the Light 
can come,  must  awaken. Thru  your  Awakening,  the Earth 
will emit  more  Light,  to take  its place  in the Great  Scheme 
of Life. If it be not done  by the Call  of the Individuals  to re-
lease  That  Light,  then  the Great  Law  and  Nature,  as you 
call it, will  say to mankind:  "No  longer  will  I submit  to 
your  inharmony,"  and  She  buries  her opponents. Do you  not understand,  Beloved  Ones,  why  great  cata-
clysms  occur. Because  of the building  and  ever-increasing DISCOURSE  VIII  79 
inharmony,  within  the  feeling  world  of mankind  which 
saturates  even  the  Earth. That  is what  has  caused  every 
great  destructive  activity  which  has ever  been  on the Earth, 
and you  are now  facing  the last one. Do you  wish  to exist 
as slaves  to depravity  today,  as the conditions  are in Russia. We know  the conditions  which  are there. Don't  let any 
Loyal  American  fail to stand  by his Country  and  his People. You may  wonder  that  One,  Wholly  Free  from  all earthly 
entanglements,  speaks  of the loyalty  to your  country. There 
will be those  who  will  say,  when  this  goes  forth:  "No  Cos-
mic Being  could  have  spoken  Those  Words. " I say to those 
critics:  "Be  silent. I speak,  because  I am in the realm  of 
your  world. Because  I know  your  requirements. and  be-
cause  I know,  that  if enough  of mankind  do not wake  up 
and give  Assistance,  so shall  Earth  once  again  bury  you  and 
take her Freedom. That  is what  is before  mankind,  and  I say to all the Be-
loved  "I AM"  Students  thruout  America  and  the World: 
"You  who  have  had  the Courage  to stand  fearless,  in the 
Acknowledgment  of your  Presence;  issue  these  Decrees; 
and give  forth  your  Life  to the Assistance  of America  and 
the World,  will  one  day  reap  the Reward  which  will  be 
Eternal. The reason  I say this  to you,  is because  those  who  have 
touched  This  Light  and  then  turned  to criticize  and  con-
demn  It, will  cry out for Mercy. Oh,  what  an unfortunate 
thing—and  how  they  will  cry for Mercy;  because  of their 
unfortunate  human  creations. It is not a matter  of human 103 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
opinions  any  longer,  but it is a matter  of the need  of the 
World  today. That  Call  is coming  from  the  Hearts  of mankind,  as 
never  before  in the  World. Yet,  the  Assistance  has  been 
Greater  than  ever  in the history  of the World;  for the peo-
ple have  the opportunity  before  them,  in the Understand-
ing of This  Knowledge,  which  will  enable  them  to send 
forth  the Limitless  Power  of God's  Purifying,  Perfecting 
Activity;  and  which  will  enable  them  to render  this  Neces-
sary Service. I say to you,  Beloved  Ones,  your  Beloved  Saint  Germain 
for more  than  two  hundred  years,  has labored  ceaselessly, 
for the Freedom  and  Blessing  of mankind. Why  was  This 
Light  brought  forth  here. Because  in a period  long  past, 
the Glory  and  Perfection  which  was  known  then,  existed 
here  in your  Beloved  Land. Why  do I speak  of America. Because  I too know  here  must  come  that  Mighty  Perfection, 
which  was  here  once  before;  and  It is the Final  Activity  for 
the Earth—make  no mistake. Will  you  feel  your  respon-
sibility,  every  one  of you  Beloved  "I AM"  Students;  and  let 
nothing  make  you  waver  or turn  you  aside  from  the Mighty 
Power  of your  Presence. Why  have  I asked  the students  everywhere,  to lay aside 
everything  which  they  have  known  before;  and  enter  into 
the Freedom  and  the Glory  of the Books  which  Beloved 
Saint  Germain  has  brought  forth. Because  They  are the 
Greatest  Power,  the  Clearest  Understanding  which  has 
ever come  forth  to mankind. Those  Books  bring  the Pure DISCOURSE  VIII 81 
Love,  Power  and  Mighty  Application  which  allow  the In-
dividual  to go forward;  and  give  This  Freedom  and  As-
sistance  to his fellow-man,  America  and  the World. Unless 
people  will  understand  The  Law,  take  It up and  live  It, 
they will  but delay  the Incoming  Perfection  which  would 
enter  in and  set all mankind  Free. You  have  not so many 
years,  to enter  into  the Final  Decision. I am charging  your  city,  you,  and  the "I AM"  Students 
of America  tonight,  while  I speak  to you,  with  Courage  and 
Power. IF YOU  WILL  ALLOW  IT TO  ACT,  IT WILL 
MAKE  YOU  FEARLESS  AND  DAUNTLESS  IN 
YOUR  STAND  WITH  THE  PRESENCE;  not  only  in 
the Accomplishment  of your  Individual  activities;  but  in 
calling  forth  This  Power  of the "Mighty  I AM  Presence," 
which  will  do the Work  that  is required  for the Freedom 
and Blessing  of all mankind. Why  do I wish  to establish  a Center  here  and  in New 
York. Why  do We  wish  to establish  a Certain  Definite 
Center  of Activity  at certain  points  in the United  States. Because  a Great  Pillar  of Light  can  be drawn,  which  will 
pour  out Its Radiance  and  will  one  day  become  the Unfed 
Flame. That  Flame  will  pour  forth  Its Radiance  for hun-
dreds  of miles;  and  enable  mankind  to enter  into  the Glory 
and Freedom  which  is each  one's  Birthright;  altho  so many 
have  wholly  forgotten  That  Birthright. Tonight,  Beloved  Ones,  I speak  to you  as One  in your 
midst;  One  who  loves  humanity;  One  who  is offering  every 
Assistance  the Law  of the human  octave  will  permit;  and 82 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
ever increases  That  Assistance,  as the Cosmic  Light  permits 
It to act for your  Freedom  and  quickly. We  are asking  the 
Co-operation  of you  Beloved  Ones  in the human  octave,  to 
make  This  Call,  so We may  amplify  It to do This  Work 
required. There  is no other  permanent  means  in the World. All other  means  have  been  tried  and  everything  has failed; 
because  mankind  did  not know  the  "Mighty  I AM  Pres-
ence"—which  is the ONLY  SUSTAINING  POWER  there 
is. Once  the people  really  understand  That  Presence,  they 
will know  Its Call  set into  action,  makes  a Permanently  Sus-
tained  Activity;  which  will  continue,  until  all required  is 
accomplished  for  mankind. We  see  and  feel  a Quality 
among  you,  which  can become  a Wondrous  Power  for the 
Light. Will  you  all, every  one  of you,  remember  to keep 
yourselves  harmonized;  so Great  Power  may  flow  thru,  to 
do for you,  your  city  and  nation,  what  is required. To the 
degree  you  get out of harmony,  are you  responsible  for the 
failure,  if it comes. Remember,  it is Your  Responsibility. This  is why  I speak  to you  with  such  Earnestness  tonight, 
from  My very  Heart;  to endeavor  by This  Radiance  poured 
forth,  to reach  mankind  in your  city  here. I am trying  to 
reach  those  who  have  not been  here;  and  awaken  their  con-
sciousness,  their  feeling  world,  to begin  to reach  out from 
their  Hearts,  to touch  This  Great  Work  and  let Its Freedom 
flow  into  their  worlds. There  is no Greater  Privilege  of Service  before  mankind 
today,  than  THE  ISSUING  OF  THESE  MIGHTY  DE-
CREES  FOR  THE  FREEDOM  OF  THEMSELVES DISCOURSE  VIII  83 
AND  THE  WORLD;  THE  SEIZING  AND  BINDING 
OF THE  ENTITIES;  THE  USE  OF  THE  VIOLET 
CONSUMING  FLAME;  THE  CALL  OF  THE  TUBE 
OF LIGHT  AROUND  YOU. These  are Mighty  Activities 
which  are imperative  for you. Will  you  use  them  and  be 
Free. The  Choice  is yours,  Beloved  Ones. Our Hearts,  Our  Mighty  Light  Rays  are pouring  out  to 
you Unlimited  Assistance. It remains  for you  to accept  or 
reject. We  cannot  be harmed  by disaster  in your  physical 
world,  but your  physical  bodies  can be. We  plead  with  you 
for your  Assistance,  which  enables  all This  to be done. Again  I say,  the choice  is yours. Remember,  Oh  Beloved  Ones,  Our  Love  pours  forth  a 
Limitless  Stream  of Energy  and  Intelligence;  and  It will 
continue  to flood  you  and  your  world  with  the Fulness  of 
Its Power  and  Freedom. As tonight  is the Close  of this  Mighty  Radiance  drawn 
for your  Blessing,  so will  you  take  It into  each  one  of your 
worlds  of activity;  and  feel  It ever  increasing  and  expand-
ing for your  Blessing  and  Success,  your  Health  and  your 
Freedom. It is a Gift  of Love  and  the Power  of Our  Divine 
Love  pouring  out  thru  your  Heart,  which  is the  Open 
Door  to all the  Perfection  that  exists;  the  only  means  by 
which  It can  flood  your  world. My Heart  enfolds  you;  My Light  clothes  you;  My Energy 
will sustain  you  and  the Intelligence  of your  "Mighty  I AM 
Presence"  called  into  action,  will  direct  you  unerringly  in 
the Perfect  Service  which  you  should  render. Call  It into 84 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
action  and  if Assistance  be required,  then  We  stand  ready 
to give  That  Assistance. No longer  give  way  to limitations,  Beloved  Ones. Enter 
now  the Gates  of Freedom  and  close  Them  behind  you— 
upon  your  world  of limitations;  so you may  not again  look 
back,  upon  that  world  of your  own  creation  which  has held 
you bound  so long. I thank  you. DISCOURSE  VIII 
PRIVATE  DICTATION  June  19,1937 
Mr. Ballard: 
Beloved  Ones,  you  might  think  this  is just  an enjoyable 
evening  in which  we meet  together;  but  in the Activity 
of the Light,  there  is always  a Deeper  Underlying  Cause; 
for the outer  desires  are often  used  to bring  about  the Bless-
ings which  are to be given. A Three-fold  Activity  will  take  place  for each  one  here. While  the Divine  Director  is dictating  and  doing  His Work, 
which  He has already  begun,  Chananda  and  our Beloved 
Nada  will  also  do a Certain  Work  which  it is not necessary 
to mention. THE  DIVINE  DIRECTOR 
Beloved  Children  of the Light. When  I say Those  Words 
tonight,  I give  Them  a Fuller  Deeper  Quality  than  is ordi-
narily  understood. These  Hearts  present,  who  are reaching 
out so earnestly  and  with  such  determination,  for Freedom 
in every  way,  MUST  FIND  THE  TIME  AND  ASSOCIA-
TION  WHEREIN  THAT  WHICH  IS REQUIRED  TO 
BE GIVEN,  MIGHT  HAVE  NO  INTERFERENCE  IN 
ANY  WAY. You  must  remember,  Beloved  Ones,  in your 
feeling  world,  there  is the Consumer  and  Decreer  of what 
you and  your  world  shall  be. 85 86 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
The unhappy  part  is, that  thru  the accumulation  in the 
feeling  world  of mankind,  obstruction  was  constantly 
charged  forth;  to interfere  with  the various  achievements 
whatever  they  might  be. Once  you  understand,  in your 
Call to the Presence,  you  must  make  your  Outer  Conscious 
Effort  at Self-control,  by governing  the feeling;  then  you 
will quickly  have  the Power  of the Presence  flowing  thru, 
for any  given  purpose  or accomplishment. It is not sufficient  to just continue  to Call  to the Presence, 
without  an Earnest  Sincere  Effort  to control  your  feeling 
from  the outer  standpoint. That  is where  many  students 
have  found  difficulty  in realizing  they  must  make  a certain 
effort  upon  their  own  part  at Self-control;  in order  to give 
the Powerful  Qualification  and  co-operate  with  the Power 
of the Pure  Energy  of the Presence  flowing  forth. You will  find  from  tonight,  as This  is anchored  clearly 
in your  consciousness  and  feeling  world,  that  every  impulse 
which  would  produce  discord,  you  will  be able  to silence 
instantly  and  stop  its action  from  the outer  standpoint;  be-
cause  you  will  know  you  are the Decreer  for your  world, 
and what  shall  act thru  your  feeling. Even  though  there  still  be some  accumulation  in your 
feeling  world,  there  is no reason  why  it should  longer  gov-
ern you. Fortunately,  there  have  been  many  in your  beloved 
city and  the  surrounding  places,  WHO  HAVE  BEEN 
STRONG  ENOUGH  TO  REFUSE  TO  LISTEN  TO 
GOSSIP;  AND  I MEAN  BY  THAT,  ALL  THINGS 
WHICH  ARE  LESS  THAN  THE  PERFECTION  OF DISCOURSE  VIII  87 
THE  PRESENCE;  BECAUSE  AFTER  ALL,  EVERY-
THING  ELSE  IS BUT  GOSSIP. That  is perhaps  a gentle 
term  to use,  but  nevertheless,  only  as Individuals  see it is 
not a personal  thing,  can they  free  themselves. IT DOES  NOT  MATTER  WHAT  THE  CONDI-
TION  OF  THE  APPEARANCE  WORLD  IS. IT IS 
NOT  A MATTER  OF  INDIVIDUALS  OR  PERSON-
ALITIES. IT  IS BUT  A FORCE  ACTING  THRU 
THEM,  OF  WHICH  EITHER  THEY  ARE  UNA-
WARE;  OR  THEY  HAVE  SOMETHING  IN THEIR 
FEELING  WORLD,  WHICH  MAKES  THEM  AN 
EASY  INSTRUMENT  FOR  ITS  USE. The simple,  very  simple  Requirement  to allow  the Pres-
ence  to act, is the reason  why  so many  people  fail to quickly 
grasp  It. The  human  always  trys  to make  things  compli-
cated,  because  of its lack  of understanding. When  the  In-
dividual  realizes  there  is only  ONE  SIMPLE  THING 
NECESSARY,  and  that  is to allow  the Pure  Energy  to flow 
forth  to fill his or her mind,  body,  world  and  activity,  then 
his or her  Calls  are fulfilled  quickly. Then,  each  one  will 
know  to call  the Presence  into  action  and  make  the  Con-
scious  Effort  to control  the  feeling,  will  enable  this  to be 
quickly  done,  to produce  the Perfection  he or she requires. As long  as people  listen  to discordant  things  and  destruc-
tive experiences,  they  will  have  them  in their  worlds. Out 
of the vast  number  of Students  in your  city,  there  are but 
very  few  who  are strong  enough,  just  from  the  Power  of 
Radiation,  to repel  and  refuse  acceptance  or allow  to regis-88 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
ter in their  feeling  world,  a destructive  quality  or experi-
ence  to which  they  may  be listening. That  is where  the 
danger  point  lies  for the Students  today;  because,  if they 
momentarily  listen,  they  are allowing  to register—unknow-
ingly,  in their  feeling  worlds,  the quality  upon  which  their 
attention  rests. That  is why  We have  pled  with  the Students, 
thru  the Messengers,  not to listen  to gossip  or allow  it in 
your  worlds. I began  the  Radiation  in the  San  Francisco  Class. We 
have  been  urging,  and  urging,  and  urging  the  Students 
everywhere;  and  holding  their  attention  repeatedly,  upon 
these  more  Simple  Requirements;  so they  get the Full  Un-
derstanding  of their  own  Individual  Requirements. It is 
necessary  for them  to do this;  if they  are to have  the Perfec-
tion which  the Presence  wants  to pour  forth. Now  remember,  Dear  Ones,  your  Higher  Mental  Body 
knows  absolutely  everything  you  require. It will  produce  it 
for you;  because  It has the Full  Power  of the Presence  and 
does  wield  the Full  Power  to produce  any  Requirement  in 
your  world;  but  It cannot  and  does  not produce  any  de-
structive  quality. As you  enter  the Conscious  Pathway,  the Higher  Mental 
Body  will  not  release  energy  at any  time;  to the Student 
who  has come  into  the Knowledge  of the "I AM,"  to pro-
duce  any  destructive  quality;  or which  It sees  in Its All-
knowing  Power,  would  be used  for destruction. You  will 
say to Me,  then  how  do people  continue  to do things  which 
are destructive. Because  of the energy  already  called  forth DISCOURSE  VIII  89 
which  is anchored  in their  worlds,  and  with  which  their 
feeling  world  is charged. When  that  energy  is exhausted, 
they cannot  and  do not go farther,  in their  destructive  ac-
tivities. When  they  are exhausted,  if they  do not know  the 
"I AM  Presence,"  they  do not know  how  to replenish  that 
energy. You have  before  you  in the  outer  world  constant  ex-
amples  of it. The  hypnotist  who  uses  his energy  to hyp-
notize  thru  a period  of years,  becomes  exhausted  and  loses 
all his power;  because  he has used  up all the energy  with 
which  his feeling  world  has been  charged,  and  not know-
ing the Presence  cannot  call  forth  more. The same  is true  with  many  Christian  Science  practi-
tioners. Not  knowing  the difference  between  mental  power 
and the actual  Spiritual  Power,  which  is the Energy  from 
the Presence,  they  go on and  produce  some  astonishing  re-
sults  in their  earlier  experience. They  do not  know  they 
are using  just  mental  power;  but  they  do produce  certain 
results  for the time  being,  and  they  are greatly  elated  over 
the certain  results. Yet,  they  find  later  when  that  energy 
is exhausted,  they  cannot  any  longer  do the work. The evidence  of This  stands  today  in America  before 
thousands  of people. Many,  many  have  come  to the Mes-
sengers  and  have  had  the  reason  explained  and  in most 
instances,  they  have  been  people  who  replaced  the energy 
in the acceptance  of the "I AM  Presence";  because  there  is 
no power  in the world  aside  from  your  "I AM  Presence. " There  is no human  being  who  has any power  separate  from 90 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
the Presence. Even  the outer  self  could  not have  any  Life, 
except  That  supplied  by the Presence  which  beats  its Heart. As you  look  at these  things  from  This  Great  Law's  Stand-
point,  they  are simplicity  itself. Our  unhappy  critics  who 
criticize  Us for the  simple  language  used,  are but  held 
within  their  own  intellectual  vanity. Why  should  We  ac-
quiesce  to the human  opinions  of the world;  knowing  the 
Results  which  are produced  by the simplicity  of Our  Lan-
guage  which  has  been  used. We  use  your  terminology 
to make  it more  forceful  to you. Why  should  We try to use 
technical  terminology,  which  does  nothing  but make  con-
fusion  within  Individuals. We again  call  your  attention  to some  things  which  We 
want  you  to go forth  and  use tonight,  with  a certain  outer 
consciousness  of your  Presence  acting  thru  your  mind,  body 
and world. I assure  you,  Beloved  Ones,  you  must  be more 
firm  than  ever;  and  refuse  to listen  to discord  or gossip. They  charge  your  world  with  their  qualities;  and  if your 
mind—unknowingly—begins  to revolve  those  qualities 
within  itself,  your  world  is charged  with  them  and  you 
must  reap  the results. When  students  come  to a certain  point  in the Expansion 
of their  Inner  Light,  their  Zeal  and  Great  Desire  for Per-
fection  is often  preyed  upon,  to try to trip  them  up;  but if 
the Students  will  listen  carefully  to the Messengers  in this 
coming  Class  and  use that  which  comes  forth,  every  one 
who  comes  into  it will  be Free. We are determined,  if the Students  will  listen  to Us and DISCOURSE  VIII  91 
be alert,  to give  them,  not only  the Outer  Worded  Expres-
sion of the Application  and  what  It does;  but the Quality 
which  It contains,  will  be anchored  within  their  feeling 
worlds,  to render  the same  Service  for them. At this  time, 
more  than  ordinary  Assistance  must  be given  and  is given; 
but We cannot  compel  the action  of the Individual. We can only—and  often  do—give  vivid  promptings;  but 
Individuals  will  have  no trouble  in calling  the  Presence 
into action,  if they  will  only  not listen  to destructive  discus-
sions. I mean  any form  of gossip,  judgment,  condemnation; 
and all that  kind  of thing  with  which  the atmosphere  of 
humanity  is charged. It is so much  easier  to listen  from  the 
human  standpoint,  than  to repel  it; but one must  some  day 
be firm  enough  to do it, and  We  want  to get every  one  of 
you to that  point,  as with  This  Good  Messenger;  where 
even  though  you  listen  to it, you  do not allow  any  of those 
qualities  to register  in your  feeling  world. Then,  you  will 
find there  will  be no inclination  to get irritated  or disturbed 
about  any  appearance  in the appearance  world. I call  your  attention  to this  tonight  so you  may,  if you 
care to, watch  it. In the various  activities  which  have  taken 
place,  the Light  within  each  one  expands,  thru  the Accept-
ance  of the Power  of the Radiation  which  We  give. That 
Light  becomes  more  and  more  intensified  and  certain 
Groups  are being  drawn  together. Do you  think,  Beloved  Ones,  really  anything  ever  hap-
pens  by chance. Surely  you  cannot  think  that. Even  in the 
smaller  things,  there  must  be and  is a cause  back  of every 92 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
single  thing,  which  you  do in the outer. Now  then,  if you 
have  allowed  some  destructive  quality  to register  in your 
feeling  world;  and  you  are attempting  to do something  de-
structive,  then  if this  pressure  rushes  forward,  where  does 
the fault  lie. Really  not with  the Individual,  not with  the 
Intelligence  which  sent  it forth;  but  in the lack  of obedi-
ence  to the Law  of Harmony,  is what  allows  discord  to 
register  in your  feeling. So you  will  see by that  why  We  should  not judge;  why 
We should  not condemn;  and  yet,  why  We should  be firm 
and unyielding  in Our  Stand  to the Light,  the Harmony 
and the refusal  to listen  to discordant  destructive  things— 
regardless  of what  they  may  be about. Do you  think  that  is 
asking  too much. Is there  anything  of more  importance  in 
all the  Universe,  than  your  Freedom. Is there  anything 
more  wonderful  in all the Universe  than  your  Ascension. I think  not. Now  at this  point,  let Me remind  you  of some-
thing,  for you  may  be of Inestimable  Assistance  to others. Many  people,  and  many  among  the  Students,  when  the 
Idea  of the Ascension  came  forth,  thought  they  had  but to 
call to the Presence  and  their  Ascension  would  be forthcom-
ing; regardless  of what  their  attitude  in the outer  world 
was. How  unfortunate  that  any  one  could  think  such  a 
thing,  when  all in Life  is a harmonizing,  refining  process. To think  such  a thing,  for one  who  has lived  discordantly 
just in this  Life,  say for thirty  or forty  years;  just  a simple 
call to the Presence  would  give  that  one  the  Ascension, 
without  any  effort  on such  a person's  part,  is childish  ig-DISCOURSE  VIII  93 
norance. It would  be childishness  and  a great  mistake. There  have  been  thousands  who  really  thought  so and  who 
were  really  very  sincere. There  is no limit,  as the Messengers  have  told  you,  to 
what  the Presence  might  do for you,  at any given  moment. That  is why  I explain  this  to you  tonight. There  are many 
who  are still thinking,  it does  not require  anything  but their 
call to the Presence  to gain  their  Ascension;  regardless  of 
what  is going  on in their  feeling  world. Again  it is childish 
and foolish. Harmony  is the Law  of the Universe. Unless  It is main-
tained  for a sufficient  period  of time,  in the feeling  world 
of each  one,  how  can the energy  flow  forth  unqualified  Pit 
cannot  do it. So from  tonight,  take  your  firm  stand  with  the Presence. While  This  Messenger  does  not wish  Me to use him  as an 
example,  nevertheless  I must  do it. I call  your  attention, 
Beloved  Ones,  to his experience. Up until  he met  his be-
loved  companion,  there  was  no one  in the world  to whom 
he could  turn  for Assistance. There  was  only  one  thing  he 
could  do; and  that  was  stand  and  follow  to the best  of his 
ability,  the Inner  Promptings  which  came. Then,  after  the 
contact  with  Beloved  Saint  Germain,  he was  shown  how 
very accurately,  he had  been  following  Those  Inner  Prompt-
ings. If every  one would  only  follow  Those  Inner  promptings, 
you would  all be able  to hold  to the Light;  but Individuals 
allow  their  attention  to outer  things,  to make  them  waver, 94 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
wonder,  question  or doubt—when  they  are actually  having 
these  Inner  Promptings  all the time;  some  days  not having 
them  quite  so strong  as others. He did not always  have  them 
so strong  that  he was  certain  about  everything,  yet he con-
tinued  to follow  to the best  of his ability. There  was  no 
one to whom  he could  go. That  is why  Beloved  Saint  Ger-
main,  Nada  and  Myself  have  urged  the Students,  to feel the 
Full Power  of their  Presence  to prompt  them;  then  stand  by 
It, until  they  can  have  the Full  Outer  Consciousness  and 
Assurance,  the Presence  would  always  answer;  because  it is 
the Law  of your  Being,  that  It is compelled  to answer. You will  soon  gain  a confidence  in the outer,  so every 
time  you  call  to your  Presence,  instantly  there  will  flow 
forth  Its Mighty  Energy,  the Mighty  Directing  Intelligence, 
the Great  Calm  Certain  Feeling  within  you,  which  gives 
you the Assurance  of Its Accomplishment. Tonight,  as I refer  to these  various  things,  these  Qualities 
are not only  being  anchored,  but charged  into  your  feeling 
world  for action. Oh,  Beloved  Ones,  it is action  We  need 
now. What  do I mean  by that. The  Release  thru  your 
Decrees  into  the mental  and  feeling  world  of mankind,  of 
This  Mighty  Charge  and  Activity. We  repeatedly  say  to 
you,  it is one  of the Greatest  Services  which  can  be ren-
dered  ; and  in your  Mighty  Groups  here,  the Accomplish-
ment  has been  wonderful  I assure  you,  even  in the past  six 
months. The ability  to release  Our  Real  Power  of the Ascended 
Masters'  Divine  Love,  is most  commendable. Each  one  re-DISCOURSE  VIII  95 
leases  the Special  Power  and  Activity  of Divine  Love  re-
quired  in each  Group. Now  mark  you,  Dear  Ones,  please 
notice  this. Everywhere  That  Quality  of the  Ascended 
Masters'  Divine  Love  is released,  It becomes  a Cohesive 
Quality  and  Activity,  which  keeps  drawing  more  and  more 
to Itself. You  have  noticed  the moment  some  discord  comes 
in, how  the dissolving,  disintegrating  process  starts  and  peo-
ple withdraw. Again,  when  the Ascended  Masters'  Divine 
Love  begins  to pour  forth,  which  is the Cohesive  Quality  of 
Life,  then  people  come  back. If only  Beloved  Mankind  and  the  Beloved  Students, 
would  become  cognizant  of these  actions  which  are going 
on before  them  constantly,  how  beautiful  it would  all be; 
but because  of the pressure  of the outer  world,  those  things 
are passed  over  almost  constantly. I ask you,  if you  will,  to 
watch  them  and  see how  very  wonderful  is the Law  of 
Life;  how  Unfailing,  Unerring  It is, in Its Activity  when 
unqualified  by human  discord. Remember  what  Beloved  Saint  Germain  has said  to you 
from  the beginning:  "the  human  ungoverned  is more  vi-
cious  than  the animal  in the jungle. " Never  were  Truer 
Words  uttered. Therefore,  why  accept  the human  and  al-
low its disintegrating  activity  to begin  to act in your  world. Beloved  Ones,  listen  to Me carefully. Every  moment  you 
are listening  to any kind  of destructive  qualities  in any  con-
versation,  its disintegrating  quality  is then  and  there  acting 
in your  feeling  world;  because  you  admitted  it thru  your 
hearing. You  don't  know  that  from  the human  standpoint, 96 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
but We have  watched  it among  the Earnest  Students. We 
see the cause  and  effects,  but unless  you  will  allow  Us to 
help  you,  how  can We do it. I am  prompting  you  on these  various  points  tonight, 
because  everywhere  you  go, you  are bound  to meet  these 
things. In humanity's  present  state,  you  cannot  avoid  it. Do not ever  be disturbed  at appearances  which  have  to be 
met and  conquered;  because  until  more  of humanity  come 
into the  Light  of the  "Mighty  I AM  Presence,"  human 
qualities  and  conditions  are always  there  to be met. See how 
easily  these  conditions  are  governed,  when  the  Presence 
comes  into  action;  but how  can the Presence  act, if the feel-
ing world  is charged  with  irritation  and  disturbance. Beloved  Ones,  Oh how  Great  Our  Love  is for you. How 
Great  is Our  Rejoicing  at every  single  Victory  which  you 
gain;  and  how  Our  Love  pours  out to you  like  a Mighty 
River,  knowing  sooner  or later  your  Victory  must  come. You think  you  love  each  other,  but how  can you  know  what 
Love  really  is; until  you  really  know  the Love  which  has 
Infinite  Patience  with  the mistakes  of mankind. Yet,  when 
We see the Great  Infinite  Patience,  being  gained  among 
many  of the students  and  the Expansion  of the Light  within 
their  Hearts,  how  greatly  We rejoice  and  how  much  more 
We can then  do. Remember,  your  Victory  is certain,  if you  will  just follow 
these  simple  things. It is not complicated—the  Victory  of 
Life. It is so simple  most  of Its Great  Qualities,  because  they 
are so simple,  are believed  to be untrue. Don't  ever  admit DISCOURSE  VIII  97 
failure  in anything,  no matter  what  the appearance  world 
screams  to you. Still  say to it: "You  have  no power". Oh, 
how  much  you  could  do for your  own  world,  yourselves  and 
others,  when  you  say that. Beloved  Ones,  do not at any  time  or in any  way,  allow 
fear of any kind  to enter  concerning  the Messengers  of This 
"I AM"  Activity. Remember,  the  "Light  of God  never 
fails. " There  have  been  a lot of prophecies  made,  since  the 
Messengers  left  here—all  so foolish. Human  gossip  will 
continue,  until  the  Cosmic  Light,  as you  have  been  told, 
sweeps  out all human  selfishness  and  destructive  qualities 
from  the  Earth. So until  that  time,  remember  God,  the 
"Mighty  I AM  Presence"  in you,  is your  Certain  Victory. No other  power  exists  in your  world,  unless  you  continue 
to admit  it. Do you  know,  your  very  attention  having  been  called  to 
your  Presence,  aside  from  your  conscious  call so earnestly  to 
It, would  release  one day Its Full  Power  of Action  into  your 
world. Then  how  much  more  quickly  It will  come,  if you 
refuse  to accept  or listen  to destructive  qualities  of any  kind. Then  keep  calling  your  Presence  into  action,  until  Its 
Whole  Light  floods  your  world. Please  be reminded  again  tonight—there  is no battle  in 
the Achievement  of the Presence. You  call  Its Light  forth 
thru your  mind  and  body,  into  your  feeling  world,—the 
Light  knows  no resistance  nor interference. It simply  floods 
into you  and  out into  your  world;  and  the Fulness  of This 
Light,  being  the Supremacy  of the Universe  and  the Su-98 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
preme  Power  of your  world,  just  moves  into  action  and  all 
else dissolves  before  It. That  is the way  to feel  concerning 
the Activity  of your  Presence. You  don't  have  to struggle. Remember  the  simple  words  so often  used:  "You  shall 
hold  your  Peace  and  the Presence  will  fight  your  battles. " It simply  means,  the moving  of the Light  of the Presence 
into your  body,  sweeping  out  all irritation,  all discord  of 
every  kind  and  replacing  it with  all Perfection  which  is the 
Law. No imperfection  can penetrate  That  Light,  and  when 
you call  It into  action—as  a Tube  of Light—as  a Volume 
of Light  flowing  into  your  world,  your  body,  It is quite  a 
different  thing. Please  notice  this  point  carefully:  It is quite  a different 
thing,  than  when  the  Natural  Light  becomes  clothed  by 
your  discordant  qualities. That  Light  has become  shut  in, 
instead  of the discord  being  shut  out. When  you  place  your-
selves  in a Tube  of Light,  do you  not see the power  of hu-
man  qualification,  cannot  reclothe  the Tube  of Light,  which 
you are calling  into  action. Its Volume  is too Great. That 
it why,  if you  once  understand,  when  you  say,  for instance: 
" 'Mighty  I AM  Presence,'  charge  my mind  and  body  with 
Your  Mighty  Energy,  Your  Strength  and  Courage,"  or 
whatever  the quality  is you require,  That  is the Light  of the 
Presence  filling  your  body;  and  Its Volume  is too great  to be 
reclothed  by the quality  which  is within  your  feeling  world 
at that  particular  time. Notice  This  Activity  carefully. When  the Light  comes  in 
naturally  and  flows  thru  the nerves—as  Energy  and  Points DISCOURSE  VIII 99 
of Light  within  the cells  of your  body,  It is not sufficiently 
powerful,  to keep  the quality  in your  feeling  world,  from 
clothing  it with  the density  which  is in your  feeling. When 
you stand  yourself  in This  Tube  of Light  or make  yourself 
a Pillar  of Light,  the Volume  of That  Light  is too great,  to 
be clothed  by the feeling  of the Individual. If you  once  understand  this,  and  as you  stand  yourselves 
in This  Tube  of Light;  or feel yourself  a Tube  or Pillar  of 
Light,  moving  about  in your  daily  activity,  you  will  soon 
find all of your  undesirable  qualities  will  disappear—they 
must  disappear. I want  to say to the Beloved  Ones  here,  tonight,  We shall 
endeavor  to take  all resistance  out of your  feeling  world, 
concerning  your  present  forms;  so they  take  on their  natural 
symmetry. Do not resist  the Perfection  of your  Presence  any 
longer. Just  say:  " 'Mighty  I AM  Presence'  now  this is Your 
Form. Therefore,  it has to be the Symmetry  and  Perfection 
which  You  are. Humanly,  I take  my mind  off of It entirely. Therefore,  'Mighty  I AM  Presence,'  You  take  command  of 
this body  now;  and  bring  it into  Your  Perfect  Symmetry"; 
then  be at Peace  and  rest  about  it. Every  time  the human 
has an opinion,  say:  "Hold  on. You  are to have  no opinion". and you will  find  the Presence  will  do This  Perfectly. I want  to say:  you  are Free  from  this  hour. Don't  longer 
accept  anything  else,  any  suggestion  of anything  else. If 
you will  just feel This,  and  if you  believe  I speak  the Truth, 
you will  know,  you  will  feel,  your  Freedom  definitely  in 
your  feeling. Therefore,  you  will  feel  a strength  sustained 100 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES 
within  you,  which  will  give  you  Great  Joy from  this  hour. No matter  what  the outer  appearance  is, do not accept 
again  for a single  instant,  any  lack  of strength,  courage  or 
power;  because  your  Presence  which  beats  your  Heart  is 
your  Power,  Strength,  Energy,  Courage  and  Everything 
Else which  is required,  to give  you  everything. Remember  what  We  have  said:  you  shall  all sing  again 
with  a Greater  Power,  than  you  have  ever  known. Accept 
That  Charge,  if you  will,  and  let Its Full  Power  of Action 
go on within  you. Don't  allow  the appearance  world  to have 
any affect  upon  you  again;  but  just  in Great  Joy  say: 
" 'Mighty  I AM  Presence'  I accept  the  Fulness  of Your 
Power. I say  to all these  appearances  within  or without 
my Being:  4You  have  no power'. Therefore,  I stand  forth 
Free  right  now;  forever  held  in the Embrace  of the Light 
of my 'Mighty  I AM  Presence'  always  Free  and  Victorious. " So shall  It be. Beloved  Ones,  We see the Expansion  of your  Light. We 
see your  Victory. Don't  ever  for one  instant,  yield  to any 
appearance  longer. Say  to every  appearance  in the  outer 
world:"  'You  have  no power'. 'Mighty  I AM  Presence'  You 
are the only  Presence,  Power  and  Intelligence  acting  here. Take  command  and  hold  Your  Dominion  and  produce 
Your  Perfection. " I could  go on, and  on, and  on, but after  all, it is not so 
much  a matter  of what  We  say,  but what  you  feel  which 
counts. Won't  you  feel tonight,  your  Absolute  Freedom  in 
every  way;  in your  Perfect  Health;  in your  Perfect  Accept-DISCOURSE  VIII 101 
ance  of your  Mighty  Directing  Intelligence. It is there  for 
your  constant  use. Saint  Germain,  Nada  and  Myself  thank  you  all for your 
sincere  work;  and  We trust  you  will  realize,  it is only  just 
the beginning  of what  can unfold  from  within. Go on, and 
on, in your  Great  Desire  for Freedom  and  Victory;  but re-
fuse absolutely  to listen  to suggestions  of the outer  world; 
to prophecies  or anything  of that  kind. The  world  is full of 
human  opinions  which  are of no importance;  but  your  at-
tention  to the Presence  from  which  ALL  Perfection  comes, 
is of Very  Great  Importance. Stand  firm  within  It and  have 
Its Blessings. Beloved  Ones,  what  a Very  Wonderful  Thing  it is to give 
Us your  attention. Do you  know,  while  you  are sitting  here, 
you are no more  a part  of the outer  world  of mankind,  than 
if you  had  never  lived  in it. You  are living  this  two  hours 
in the World  of the Ascended  Masters. Can  you  not feel It. Can you  not retain  It. You  can,  even  though  you  move 
about  in your  daily  activities  in the outer  world,  still  can 
you retain  the feeling  of these  two  hours  or more. So long,  as the human  conditions  exist  in the  physical 
world  as certain  limitations,  from  which  only  the Ascension 
can free  you,  We  must  wait. Oh,  how  many  times,  We 
would  love  to gather  those  Certain  Individuals  together 
and give  This  Assistance. It can only  be done  occasionally. Will  each  one  of you  hold  the  Memory  of This  Sacred 
within  your  Hearts  always,  for It is greatly  to be cherished. Do not be disturbed  by the appearance  world. Human 102 THE  "I AM99  DISCOURSES 
Beings  come  and  go, but the Law  goes  on forever;  and  We 
thank  you  for your  noble  efforts  very  much. Beloved  Ones, 
do you not see how  in every  single  effort  to bring  Enlighten-
ment  to another,  you  retain  a Great  Blessing  within  your-
selves. How  can  human  Beings  go on, when  they  have 
touched  the Light  of their  Presence,  as some  in your  beloved 
city are doing,  thinking  they  are deceiving  others. How 
can they  practice  deception  and  go on thinking  it is not 
known. How  can Students  of the "I AM"  do this thing,  yet 
there  are those  in your  city  who  think  they  are deceiving 
others. Tonight,  I want  to prompt  you  on those  things,  so you no 
longer  accept  them. Remember,  human  appearances  are 
but the shifting  sands  of the desert. They  have  no power, 
but to confuse  the one  who  accepts  human  reports. Don't 
do it, Dear  Ones. Anything  which  speaks  of less  than  the 
Perfection  of the Presence,  you  don't  want. Therefore,  cast 
it out of your  world. It does  not belong  there. Then,  go on 
in the Great  Joy of your  Presence. I wonder  do you  realize  what  it means  for our  Beloved 
Betty  Mundy  to take  down  all of this,  which  she  has  so 
faithfully  done;  and  our Beloved  Lotus  to get this  ready  for 
the Students  everywhere. In a conversation  of this  kind, 
don't  feel  under  obligation  to use in published  form,  just 
every  word  I have  said;  because  it is done  to bring  Certain 
Activities  within  you;  but it is needed  to stabilize  and  hold 
such  a Firmness,  that  no longer  is there  a single  moment 
yielded  to less than  the Perfection  which  you  want. DISCOURSE  VIII  103 
I thank  all of you  for This  Opportunity,  to again  give 
forth  This  Assistance,  and  one  day  you  will  see how  much 
It has meant;  but  remember,  you  are not separate  from  Us 
and you  know  you  cannot  be separated  from  your  "Mighty 
I AM  Presence". Therefore,  why  give  power  any  longer 
to human  appearances,  to human  discordant  conversations. Why  do it. I am sure,  you  will  all be strong  enough  from 
this hour,  to just  simply  hold  the Wall  of Light  so strong, 
that not a discordant  thing  can  register  within  your  feeling 
world. May  each  one  of you  ere long,  drink  from  the  "Crystal 
Cup. " Who  shall  say how  soon,  you  may. Won't  you  accept 
It, until  Its Arrival  in the Physical  Form  is yours. Beloved  Ones,  the  Experiences  recorded  of This  Good 
Messenger,  are only  the beginning  of what  you  may  all ex-
perience;  once  all disturbance  is removed  from  your  feeling 
world. It is not difficult. Will  you  give  Me your  Assistance 
just for a few  moments  and  serenely  think  of the Qualities 
which  you  desire  most  quickly  made  manifest  in your  ex-
perience. Then  send  that  desire  to your  Presence  to have 
it established,  sustained  and  ail-powerfully  active  hence-
forth  in your  feeling  world  for constant  use,  forever  sus-
tained. (silence)  I rejoice  with  you,  each  one. I think  you  do not quite  realize,  whenever  your  attention 
comes  back  to this  evening,  instantly  you  set into  action 
These  Qualities  established  within  your  feeling  world. I 
don't  mean,  you  should  continually  allow  your  mind  to 
dwell  upon  this  evening;  but  as you  naturally  do return  in io4 THE  "1 AM"  DISCOURSES 
attention  to this  evening,  it will  instantly  set into  action 
These  Qualities,  which  I have  established  in you tonight. It 
is a very  tremendous  thing,  if you once  really  realize  it. It is 
quite  the same,  only  It is a more  Powerful  Activity  for you, 
when  you give  your  attention  to the "I AM  Presence''—the 
Law of Its Being,  is It must  act for you. When  you  give  your  attention  to Beloved  Saint  Germain, 
Nada,  Myself  or the Beloved  Jesus,  that  instant,  Our  Qual-
ities are acting  in your  leeling  world. If mankind  really  un-
derstood  this,  how  quickly-enormous,  tremendous  things 
could  he accomplished;  but because  of the pull  of the at-
tention  upon  the outer  world,  it is constantly  shifting,  you 
see. Therefore,  in the realization  that  your  Presence  is your 
Stabilizing  Power,  it holds  you firm  upon  a given  objective, 
upon  a given  call,  then  you see there  is not a thing  you can-
not do. Not  a thing  you  cannot  do or accomplish;  but be 
sure your  motives  are Right. I clothe  you each  one,  Oh Precious  Children  of the Light, 
in My Mantle  of Light  and  Love. In It arc These  Qualities 
which  you  need  for use. Just  wear  That  Mantle  always  lor 
Me, and  let It do Its Perfect  Work  for you. Why  do you 
suppose  Saint  Germain  was  known  in Europe  as the "Man 
with the Indigo  Cape". Do you know  that  color  is the exact 
color  of the Cosmic  Screen  in the Royal  Teton,  and It was 
used for a certain  purpose. I say to you  Beloved  Students,  do you  realize  what  a 
very great  champion  you  have  in Our  Beloved  Lotus. I am 
sure most  of you  realize  the hours,  and  hours,  and  hours, DISCOURSE  VIII  105 
while  most  of humanity  are sleeping,  she is working,  work-
ing, and  working,  for the  Freedom  and  Victory  of the 
Students—  a most  wonderful  thing. Please  do not wonder  why  We have  had  such  an Intimate 
Conversation;  but because  of the Work  to be done  for you, 
just feel  It, forever  active  within  you  and  your  world; 
knowing  definitely,  no longer  can a single  human  quality 
interfere  with  the  steady  forward  progress  to your  Free-
dom,  in every  manner. I think,  Dear  Ones,  I should  say a word  or two  of our 
Beloved  Nada. Really  little  has  been  said  recently,  but  if 
you knew  the Tremendous  Work,  She  is doing  constantly 
among  the Students,  your  Hearts  would  leap  for Joy. Her 
Tireless  Efforts  for each  one. It is so wonderful  to come  to a point  of Understanding 
where  praise  or blame  are alike  of no effect. Where  it is 
a Joyous  Service  in knowing  every  single  effort  is a Steady 
Winning  of your  Eternal  Victory. It is so wonderful  to have 
come  to a point  of Understanding,  where  you  know  the 
word  "failure"  is entirely  out  of your  vocabulary. It does 
not exist,  not for an instant  in the world  of any  one  of you 
under  This  Radiation. It has gone  out of your  world  com-
pletely. Regarding  your  financial  supply,  just  feel  your  Presence 
°pen  the Door  of Its Treasure-house  and  release  into  your 
use everything  which  is required. If channels  be used,  then 
let the Wisdom  of the  Presence  select  those  channels,  so 
there  could  not  be a single  discordant  experience. There 106 THE  "I AM99  DISCOURSES 
could  not be a single  mistake;  there  could  not be a single 
failure  to have  that  which  you  require  for use. It is so Definite. It is so Powerful. Please  feel  It. Rest  in 
It and  know—the  Dynamic  Action  of the Presence  is pro-
ducing  those  results. Why  do I say "Dynamic  Action  of the 
Presence". Because  you  must  feel  that  under  certain  con-
ditions. Until  you  have  a Greater  Sense  of Freedom,  you 
must  feel  it DYNAMICALLY  ACTIVE. Then  at each 
Call,  will  come  the Result. Beloved  Saint  Germain,  Beloved  Nada,  Beloved  Master 
Jesus,  Beloved  Chananda,  Cha  Ara,  David  Lloyd,  Rex, 
Bob,  Nada  and  Pearl;  Mrs. and  Mr. Rayborn,  all wish  Me 
to convey  Their  Love  and  Blessings  to you. The  Beloved 
Leto  wants  you  to know,  there  no longer  exists  any  un-
certainty  in you  or your  world. The  Victory  stands  there 
ACTIVE  within  each  one  of you—in  your  feeling  world. May  it have  Its Full  Dominion  now  and  forever  sustained.
It is a Mighty Inner Impulse that urges them on, and if they truly understood, they would see that it is their own Inner Power.

Because it is a matter of individual responsibility and the Presence will not act if the feeling world is charged with discordant qualities.
