"The Song of the Seraph..."

A Revelation ~

Ironically, it is through free will that we can redeem ourselves, and heal our planet!

In the following, channeled message, entitled "The Song of the Seraph", presented as poetry and prose, we find mystic symbolism and guidance, perhaps cryptic, at first. Listening to the audio and following along makes the experience extremely fulfilling... one tunes-in to the imagery, and feels the intense light from a high and distant place that feels equally familiar. It is as if the message repeats in our time of need, to reintroduce us to the Divine custodians of Earth who watch and try to help, realizing that free will is blessing inverted that we have used against ourselves, the universe and all that is sacred.

Last week was the Wesak. What is Wesak?

As we move away from the Wesak, where are we? What have we in our midsts? Did we learn anything new? Did we rekindle old knowledge? Did we gain wisdom to carry us into a better, clearer future... closer to The Divine?

The very different kind of Wesak full moon experience that occurred during meetings held for the United Nations in San Francisco, in 1945, just after WWII opned another world for one attendee. Mary Esther Crump, a follower of Alice Bailey, channeled profound information that seemed to open the vortex to the highest Divine energies known... the kind of Divine energy we need NOW!

"Over the light-yoked harbour nightly
great planes come and go,
over the necklace bridges flashing their traffic,
under the stars that dip low in the curved Pacific
and blaze more stately
than plane-twinkle or city-glow,
great planes circle slow.

Sweeping wide and wider than the great
planes ever sweep,
one night recently,
advancing from Far to nearer far
through the Eastern deep,
a live Star moving intent
hastens toward the Occident:
never has such Light illumined western land or sea.
Now Heaven, knowing Earth's distress,
assays in man's extremity
God's Opportunity
~ Yes Yes O Yes ~
and now, approaching our planet's night,
one of the Lord God's Seraphim
comes, Ambassador sent from Him,
to implement a cosmic Plan
in behalf of the Family of Man.
From afar the Light is bright dazzling white.

But then, as the Seraph draws
nearer, making poised pause,
coronal color shows:
fiery gold-white from the vast heart flows,
blue-white like a two-edged sword outthrusts
from the throat through space,
violet-white around the princely head in a halo glows.
The quality of these intermingling lights is interstellar,
all of them together are of the color of peace
(of PEACE!)
and from the nimbus' lofty center shines a
Face
of lively grace
intelligent compassion
cognizant mission
Love-Wisdom bent
toward mankind to release
pent peace.
Clear through the near reaches
making transition
while the great Brotherhood of Light watches,
swift the Lightbearer approaches the destined place.

Behind him the celestial abyss. Now
pauses the Seraph over night-cloaked Earth
over bright-yoked San Francisco
where great planes reached a destination
where brave hopes sought a consummation
where men of goodwill in free cooperation
attending the embattled birth
of a planetary aspiration
for peace
(for PEACE!)
joined in a new project, noble to dare,
against the scourge of war.

They planned from heart's height.
Striving. Beginning.
Acknowledging dire need.
They moved from minds' might.
Surviving. But not winning.
A time is full indeed
and Earth's care becomes Universe's Care
as the Seraph towers over the Light-flooded city.
Then, lifting his triple wings
in salutation,
verging his steadfast Eye
from the spangled sky
to radiate humanity,
the fiery One sings.

Fusing men and angel tongues,
This is the song He sings:

The stars of Western sky flash high
reassurances
into Earth's night.
Galaxies sweeping
constellations radioactive
planets luminous.
Stars of greater magnitude
stars of lesser magnitude
how We love them!
How We love them all.

I would reach out and pluck them, thick-
hanging clusters.
~ thick
like grapes on autumn-brown-speckled
vineyards,
like poems on the fringe of human awareness
just right just ripe for the plucking ~
I would reach
I would pluck
I would gather
I would distribute their light- and-life-bringing potencies
for the healing of the
nations of Earth.

O worn nations of torn Earth,
I reach for you.
Reach to Me.
O tired nations of scarred Earth,
I gather for you.
Gather to Us.
O buffeted nations of suffering Earth,
how We love you!
How We love you all.

Into western sky I reach.
I grasp of the massed virtues of the stars.
With mind and heart I garner of them
naming and loving as I tap
the free flowing Energy-sap of them ...

From Venus
cloud-shrouded
nearest
dearest of them,
Love I harvest.
LOVE.

From Merak
steadfast in the Great Bear waiting,
Peace I gather in burgeoning abundance,
PEACE.

From Betelgeuse
striding with Orion magnificent
triumphant messianic forgiving over the zenith
GOODWILL.

From Vega
con brio from her lyre down-sweeping
arpeggios of festival
glissandos of plenty:
SHARING.

From Arcturus
the brightest the best of the Sons of the
Morning,
the peerless the true the altogether lovely,
our ever living
once and future King:
VICTORY.

From Pleiades
incredible cluster
crackling across millennia of light years
with vigorous vast vitality:
COOPERATION.

(Not for Freedom do I reach. Nor
for Courage. For courage
abundant is here in drear dear
Earth. And where Courage is, Freedom
yet lacking will come
enough and to spare
to transmute Earth in swift shift to
rebirth.
No. Not
for Freedom do I reach. Nor
for Courage.)

But
From Regulus, DEDICATION
From Aldebaran, INTEGRATION
From Sirius, ILLUMINATION
and from
this One and
that One and all the shining singing-together Ones,
JOY.

So on and on and on through the
stars and the planets:
calling them
loving them
naming the names of them in the one Name
(Great NAME of the Lord of the Universe),
I reach out and pluck of
their light and their virtues.
I pluck for the
healing of the
nations of
Earth.

The Custodians on Earth for God's Plan

In the following section found on Souled Out.org., we see great emphasis placed on the guardianship of our planet, as alluded in the fantastic channeling of Mary Esther Crump.

"In speaking of the Christ we refer "... to His official name as head of the spiritual hierarchy. The Christ works for all of humanity, irrespective of faith; He does not belong to the Christian world any more than to the Buddhist, the Mohammedan or any other faith. In this sense, there is no need for joining the Christian church in order to be affiliated with Christ. Rather, the requirements are to love all of humanity, lead a disciplined life, recognize the divinity in all faiths and all beings, and rule your daily life with Love." (1)

Christ is ... the one complete idea of perfect humanness existing eternally in Divine Mind. He is the embodiment of all divine ideas, such as intelligence, life, love, substance, and strength, and is the true, spiritual, higher self of every individual. Each of us has within ourself the Christ, just as Jesus had, and we must look within to recognize and realize ... our divine origin and birth, even as He did. By continually unifying ourselves with the Highest by our thoughts and words, we too shall become sons and daughters of God, manifest. (2)

Those who dedicate many lives to this path and follow it to mastery become

"... the Custodians on Earth for God’s Plan for our planet and for humanity. By what name we call these Beings does not greatly matter. The Christian believer may prefer to speak of Christ and His church, and regard Them as constituting that great Cloud of Witnesses Who guarantee to humanity ultimate salvation. The esotericists of the world may call Them the Masters of the Wisdom, the planetary Hierarchy, Who in Their varied grades are ruled and taught by the Christ, the Master of all Masters, and the Teacher alike of angels and of men. Or we can call Them the Rishis of the Hindu Scriptures, or the Society of Illumined Minds, as in the Tibetan teaching. They are ... the aggregate of perfected humanity who have followed in Christ’s steps and have entered for us within the veil, leaving us an example that we should do as They have done. They, with Their wisdom, love and knowledge, stand as a protective wall around our race, and seek to lead us on, step by step (as They Themselves were led in Their time) from darkness to light, from the unreal to the real, and from death to immortality." (3)
