El Morya

There is only one test of chelaship—will you pass it?


January 4, 2006


If the messenger be a person whom you perceive as an ant, will you heed the message anyway? Or will you fail the essential test of chelaship and thus lose the thread of contact to the heart of El Morya?
 
It is not a matter of what I say, how I say it or through whom I say it. It is a matter of your ability to read the vibration of the voice, to read the inner message in the words and thus recognize the Master Morya beyond outer appearances. This, my beloved, has always been the true test of chelaship. Can you recognize the master regardless of the disguise that he may be using at the moment?

My beloved, those of you who are familiar with the Master Morya – as I have presented myself in several previous organizations – will know that at my retreat in Darjeerling I have a gruff gate keeper. Why is that so? Many people in the world think that we of the Ascended Host are interested in attracting the greatest possible number of chelas, but it is not so. Our primary concern is to present every person that comes in contact with our teachings with the essential test of chelaship.

And that test is whether you can look beyond outer appearances and catch the inner message that is deliberately disguised, so that the outer mind finds it difficult to recognize the master behind it. Thus, you might say that the gatekeeper at my retreat has the function of acting as a filter for those who are not willing to let go of their preconceived opinions about how they should be greeted at the retreat of the Ascended Master Morya.


The essential quality of the ego

You see, my beloved, the essential quality of the human ego is that it cannot – it will not – see reality. It has created a mental image, a graven image, an idol and it seeks to project it upon what it calls reality. Thus, when a person who is trapped in the ego consciousness comes across the outer teachings that we have released in any of the organizations we have sponsored throughout the last century, that person already has a mental image of what a true spiritual teaching should be like, of what a true spiritual master should be like, and the person seeks to project that image upon our teachings, upon our messengers and upon ourselves.

Obviously, once we give an outer teaching that is released in the physical, whether it be in books, or on a website, we cannot control who finds that teaching because we have no desire to control free will. Yet what we can control is how we use the outer teaching to present students with the essential test of chelaship which, as I have said, is the test of humility.
 
You see, my beloved, the ego is not a chela of the Ascended Masters. The ego is a chela of the false hierarchy and the false gurus who have come to this Earth for a very long time, peddling their theories that spring from the mind of anti-Christ. This goes all the way back to the Serpent in the Garden of Eden, and now that you have heard Maitreya's landmark discourse LINK,you will know that there is much more to understand about the story of the Garden of Eden and every mystery school following it, even the outer religions of this planet—that do not deserve to be called Mystery Schools even though they have plenty of mystery.

The test has always been whether a person is willing to look beyond his or her ego, thus being willing to question and look beyond the mental image, the graven image, created by the ego and inspired by those who have long ago rebelled against God and have decided to seek to lead everyone else astray, falling for the ultimate temptation of pride, of thinking that if they can get everyone to worship them and agree with their beliefs about God, then they must somehow be right.


What amazes me the most about would-be chelas

Ah my beloved, if you could see the depth of the pride of the fallen angels, most of you would be shocked to the core of your beings, for their pride is almost absolute. And by that I mean that there is almost no opportunity whatsoever to turn a soul around who has descended to that level of pride, thinking that it knows better than God and certainly better than any of the representatives of God sent to this planet by the Ascended Host.
 
Thus, my beloved, when I, Morya, look back at the organizations that I have sponsored throughout the last century, I must tell you that what amazes me the most is that someone can come in contact with an outer teaching and an outer organization sponsored by the Ascended Masters. The person starts studying the teachings. The person starts applying the teachings, at least the outer aspects of the teachings, such as giving decrees and prayers. After a certain time, and for some it only takes weeks, and for others it takes decades, these people begin to feel that they are now worthy to be chelas of El Morya or another Ascended Master.

They think that because they have studied the teachings and can repeat the teachings, the outer word, because they have practiced and given so and so many decrees or even because they have passed certain outer initiations that they have been exposed to, suddenly they begin to think that they have reached a level of mastery. And now, my beloved, their egos whisper in their ears – or even the false hierarchy impostors whisper in their ears – that they have become such advanced chelas that they no longer need to be tested in the essential test of chelaship. Because they are so advanced, because they have done so much, they do not need to be tested in humility.

Yet my beloved, it is precisely the chela who has done all of the outer things right for a number of years who more than anyone else needs the test of humility. For the more you have done on the outer, the more you have done on the outer path, the more you need the test of humility so that you can transcend the outer path and realize there is an entirely different level of chelaship to which you have the potential to ascend—if you are willing to look beyond the outer teaching and even your preconceived opinion about how the "real" chela should follow that outer teaching and the outer path. This, my beloved, then is the essential dividing line between those who call themselves chelas and those who are chelas of El Morya.
 

Are you willing to become one with El Morya?

My beloved, we welcome many lifestreams to our outer teachings. We have set up certain barriers of entry that turns back some, but those who are willing to pass those outer hurdles are welcomed. Yet being a member of an outer organization, doing outer practices – even for decades – does not mean that you automatically become a true chela of El Morya who has discovered and has been willing to follow the inner path of discipleship.

This my beloved, is something that I wish the majority of the members of every past organization we have sponsored would wake up and understand. For if they were to understand this, they could very quickly accelerate their spiritual attainment to the point that we could start working with them in an entirely different way, and therefore their service to this planet could be multiplied manifold.

Yet those who are not willing to look beyond that outer image, created by their egos, cannot make that leap of faith, giving up their preconceived opinions, their sense of superiority, their sense of comfortability on the outer path in order to once again bend the knee in humility and say "El Morya I am willing to be God-taught. I am willing to be taught the higher way of true chelaship, the inner way of becoming one with you El Morya, with your God flame, thus becoming in essence the twin flame in the physical octave of the Ascended Master El Morya."

Yes my beloved, in previous organizations we have given teachings on twin flames, but those teachings were adapted to the level of consciousness that humankind had at the time. They were very linear, but there is always a higher understanding, a higher teaching. Our previous teachings are not invalid – there are twin flames at the soul level – but there is indeed a higher teaching where there is a vertical relationship of twin flames between your being here below and the higher Being out of which you are an individualization.

Thus, my beloved, I the Ascended Master El Morya have many twin flames that are embodied on Earth at this hour. It is my desire that all of those should be awakened and recognize who they are. For were that to happen then I, Morya, could be myself, my spiritual being, in embodiment through my chelas below. Do you see, my beloved, this is the path of oneness that we have now spoken about in many dictations since the Fall class.


Are you willing to move higher with Morya?

It is the inner path, the real path that we long our true chelas to discover and embrace. Yet you must understand that this path could not be given out publicly in any of the previous organizations we sponsored because cosmic cycles would not allow it and the consciousness of humankind would not allow it. Thus, what you have seen now is indeed a breakthrough for this planet, and it is brought about by the very fact that a critical mass of people on this planet have been willing to embrace the new dispensation that we are now sponsoring.
 
I am grateful for everyone who has found the rosaries of Mother Mary and the teachings given. I am, however, taking this opportunity to give special thanks to all those who have been members of any one of our previously sponsored organizations and who have been willing to move on with us to this new dispensation. My beloved, in the last organization we sponsored I made it very clear – through the messenger of that organization – that I was moving higher and that I could no longer sponsor that organization, but that I would be able to sponsor individuals based on their attainment.

My beloved, I was indeed able to sponsor certain people who had walked the outer path very diligently but had not yet discovered the inner path. Yet I must tell you that this opportunity has come to a close, and I would endeavor to explain why.
 
You see, my beloved, Maitreya's Sphere of Oneness is a major dispensation for this planet. It is indeed the culmination of everything we have worked for, for a century and more, because it is an organization dedicated to promoting the inner path of oneness, even by giving an outer teaching that can be found by anyone, even those who are not ready for that path of oneness, even those who are committed to the anti-path of separation from God.

Thus, I can assure you that every Ascended Master in Heaven is putting his or her momentum and sponsorship behind this organization and I El Morya have indeed been granted the opportunity to sponsor the organization itself. Yet as we have explained during this conference concerning the multiplication of Mother Mary's rosaries, the multiplication, the sponsorship, that I can give to this new organization is not based on outer criteria, such as membership or the willingness to give a certain amount of decrees or come to a certain amount of services. It is indeed a sponsorship that is based entirely on people's willingness to walk the path of oneness and come into oneness with each other.

Yet my beloved, because I have been so heavily involved with several previous organizations, especially the Summit Lighthouse, the Karmic Board put certain requirements upon my sponsorship of this new organization. And quite frankly I must tell you that because I had made a certain amount of karma by sponsoring the Summit Lighthouse the way I did, I was not allowed to continue to sponsor any individual who was following the outer path. Thus, I must tell you that some of the people that I have been able to sponsor up until this New Year, I can no longer sponsor—unless they move on to the path of oneness and dedicate themselves to that higher path.
 

Even an ascended master can make karma

Truly, my beloved, you might wonder how I, an Ascended Master, could make karma by sponsoring an organization. Let me tell you why. Those who are on the outer path tend to think that our goal for sponsoring an outer organization is to attract members and to save the world. My beloved, our real goal for sponsoring any organization is not to achieve anything on the outer. Our real goal is to attract those who are the true chelas and to raise them up on the inner path to attain the highest possible degree of Christhood.

My beloved, even in the Summit Lighthouse we talked many a time about the need to manifest your individual Christhood, the need to come up higher. The teachings were there. We gave teachings about the inner path. Yet they were veiled, they were spoken between the lines so that those who were too focused on the outer path, essentially using the teachings of the Ascended Masters to puff up their egos, could not discover those hidden teachings.

And so, many became trapped on the outer path of thinking that the only thing that mattered was how many decrees they gave, how many services or conferences they attended, how much work they did for spreading the outer teaching and attracting members to the organization. Yet my beloved, this was not our true goal. Our true goal was to raise up people to Christhood and thus, the success of any organization is measured by how many people were raised to at least the beginning stages of Christhood.

Yet for this to happen, there must be chelas who are willing to look beyond the outer teaching, even the outer word, those who are willing to internalize the word, those who are willing to multiply their talents instead of burying them in the ground of the outer teaching and the outer practices. And I must tell you that in the Summit Lighthouse there was not a sufficient number of chelas who multiplied their talents to make up for the amount of light that I had to put as a collateral for my sponsorship of that organization. Thus, my investment has not borne fruit, at least not to this hour.
 
You see, my beloved, that is how even an Ascended Master can make a certain amount of karma. And although it does not require that master to reincarnate, the karma will have to be balanced. And of course, as an Ascended Master I cannot balance that karma in the physical, so I look to those who are my true chelas. And I must tell you that even a few chelas who commit themselves to the path of oneness can very quickly balance this karma.
 

A special test for the members of the Summit Lighthouse

Thus, my beloved, I come to commend those of you who are willing to listen to me, even though I speak through a messenger who has never ever claimed to be anything beyond any of you, someone who has been willing to stand up and deliver the Word without claiming any particular authority for doing so, thus giving a very special test of humility to those who were members of the Summit Lighthouse.

For truly, the test that you have faced through both Kim and Lorraine has been the same test faced by the inhabitants of Nazareth when Jesus came back to that town in the fullness of his Christhood. And yet those people had known Jesus as a child and did not see him as anything beyond themselves, and therefore they were not willing to humble themselves and realize that one of their own could have reached a level of attainment that truly made him the Christ in embodiment. And thus, they would not heed his word or even believe in his ability to heal—and consequently none of them were healed.
 
So you see, my beloved, we have once again given our chelas the essential test of humility by anointing two messengers who used to be just regular members of the Summit Lighthouse. None of them had much contact with the messenger, none of them have ever claimed to be trained by the messenger or to have been on staff for a certain amount of years, or to have done this or that in this or past embodiments.
 
Therefore, the test is simple—can you look beyond the outer messenger, can you even look beyond some of the teachings we have given that are deliberately meant to push the buttons of your ego, to challenge your preconceived opinions about what an Ascended Master should or should not say. And thus, can you discover the real, living El Morya behind the outer message and the outer messenger? Those of you who are here, those of you around the world who have been willing to study the teachings given in this new dispensation and to apply the rosaries that we have given, you are my true chelas! I congratulate you for having made that step and committing yourself to the inner path of oneness.

You are indeed the ones who formed the basis for the bringing forth of the dispensation of Maitreya's Sphere of Oneness. You deserve credit for this. I commend you. The entire spirit of the Ascended Host is grateful. Yet my beloved, with a twinkle in my eye I call to your attention that telling you this presents you with the essential test of chelaship. For will you respond to this with pride or will you respond with humility and focus all your attention on walking the path of oneness, rather than trying to set yourself up as being more important than any other organization on Earth.

So my beloved I, El Morya, leave you with this challenge—and yet I am quite confident that you do not take yourselves so seriously that you will fail this test. Thus my beloved I, El Morya, have the privilege of sealing this conference in Colombia, of sealing you all in the flame of mirth that I have embodied in many lifetimes and that I call you to embody, so that you do not fall into the trap of taking yourselves too seriously or taking the fallen angels too seriously, thereby giving them power over you.
 
Thus, my beloved, be sealed in the fullness of my joy.
Morya I AM.
