Ascended Masters, Shangra-la Mission,

Who are the Ascended Masters?

We often hear of angels and communication from the other side, but what does that mean? Do angels talk with us and can we talk with them? I like to think that we can because it is a natural process, not because it is something extraordinary that only the elite can do. But who are these voices from the other side and how can we tell the difference from our own thoughts?

It started a long time ago when Moses talked to the burning bush! But it really started far long ago. But one of our first recordings of God talking with man was in Genesis. And God spoke unto man - be fruitful and multiply upon the earth. He was talking to His offspring - to you and I. You might not think you were around when he said these words to his offspring, but we were a part of His Being then, as we are now.

God continued to talk to His offspring, even though they wandered far from His home. He, who was mightier than any man on earth, reached His own through their thoughts, and sometimes through their physical ears. It is spoken many times in the Bible, of the words of I AM, or God the Father, God Almighty or the Creator Gods, Elohim. God spoke to His people far more often than we realize or was recorded.

But his children's ears grew dull and their hearts grew waxed and gross and they shut off the voice of God, forgetting where their Father was and identifying more with the voices of the people surrounding them. And so God withdrew from His children in direct communication with their souls, and gave the task unto His angels to attend to them in speaking to their hearts, and sometimes to their minds and ears.

The angels have had the humongous task of reaching people through their density, and through the maya and illusion that surround him. Some people have managed to break through the barrier of density and remember who they are. They, the masters of this plane of existence, came and went from the earth plane. We know some of them in the masters of the East and West: Jesus Christ, Gautama Buddha, Lord Krishna, Kuan Yin, Mother Mary and the father of Jesus, and Saint Joseph, who is known as the master Saint Germain.

These and many more known and unknown saints rose to the heavens through the ascension, throwing off their mortal coils of limited existence, gaining their God-freedom in the Light of God. They, with their God mastery, each unique in their talents and God victories, chose to stay with the Earth and her people, rather than moving on to other dimensions much higher than their present residence. In this residence, they could contribute to the minds and hearts of God’s own. They chose to assist the angels and bring help to the people to cut them free from their mortal existence. They do this through the same process that your soul works, through your mind and heart. They use the faculties of the mind to speak to your thoughts and encourage and guide you on your trek through life. They also can reside in your spiritual heart, located behind your physical heart in the middle of your chest. From this spiritual place in your being, you can spend much time with them in inner communication throughout the day and in your meditations.

But some souls have gone a step further and have developed the soul faculty of hearing the voice, in the mind and heart, of these masters and angels and can discern the difference from their own thoughts. These are the many channelers of today. They have opened the faculties of clairaudience and developed them to certain levels where they may become channelers of the lower spirits (those residing in the astral plane) or in the higher dimensions where the angels and masters reside. These masters have lovingly been called the Ascended Masters, because they have ascended out of the physical universe into the higher planes of God.

The Ascended Masters will not just channel with anyone, but discretely tutor their students -- which we call “chelas” from the terminology used in the East between the Guru and his chela. In the East the Eastern gurus are in embodiment and take on chelas who would like to be personally tutored by them. This relationship is a replica of what occurs from heaven to earth between the ascended masters who take on chelas. We look to them as our gurus and allow them to pummel us, teach us and guide us on the path of the ascension.

There are many spiritual beings that we lump under the terminology of “ascended masters” but all are not ascended masters. Obviously, angels would be some who are not ascended beings. But there are more Cosmic Beings that work directly with unascended chelas. The Elohim, (who are the God creators of the universe and man), our Father/Mother God representative in this solar system, Helios and Vesta, and our highest Father/Mother representative Alpha and Omega, to name a few.

Some of these Cosmic Beings' names sound like science fiction. But did you ever consider that science fiction is really the outplaying of the minds of people tuned in to worlds beyond worlds of ideas, beings and creations that are not familiar with our own?

These ascended masters have sometimes sponsored organizations or people on earth to be their personal outposts. This they do under the direction of cosmic councils who work with governing this world and other systems of worlds. In conjunction with the direction of the Cosmic Beings and their councils, the Ascended Masters seek dispensations where they may directly work with their chelas and have their chelas know that they are directly working with them.

Thus, when granted, the Ascended Masters have sponsored several Messengers and their organizations. They also sponsor individual chelas, who they consider messengers as well. But to earn the title of Messenger and the master’s sponsorship of an organization, you must go through rigorous tests to prove that you will not misuse the Light of God the Master has earned from his attainment. And pass those initiations so that you do not jeopardize the Master's attainment that he has laid on the line to earn the right to sponsor people and organizations.

Some of these prior dispensations and masters have been outlined elsewhere. There are many who claim to be channelers of the ascended masters or their organizations as sponsored by the ascended masters. Many are charletans who seek power and control, monetary gains and directly work with the false imposters of the masters to lead God’s own astray. Some are directly duped by the false hierarchy imposters of the ascended masters, believing they are truly working with the real heavenly ascended masters.

You will know the real ascended master sponsored organizations and their Messengers by the Light present in their organizations and their chelas. You will know them by their fruits. The fruits are these: releases of Light that bring miraculous and other healings, progressive revelation of truth, gifts of the Holy Spirit, interpretation of the scriptures through the Holy Spirit, wisdom, power and love released through the spoken word, and the gift of prophecy.

False organizations or false messengers, whether they know they are led by the false imposters or not, will have fruits of inharmony manifesting in the poisons of prideful behavior and releases of discordant behavior, false teachings that are woven in lies amid the truth, displays of power or control through encouragement of co-dependent behavior, misuse of the sacred energies used for procreation in teachings or encouragement of relationships between same sexes, adultery or fornication, displays of any of these poisons: pride, anger, greed, jealousy, false worship of astral or other worldly beings who have no connection with the heavenly realms.
