So, beloved ones, after that embodiment when Joshua walked before the individuals who had accomplished the journey into the promised land, I had to reembody & learn to live in love & grace in order to complete my pattern & to fulfill God's will in mastery! Many of you know that I was privileged to enjoy the radiation of beloved Buddha whose great power of magnetizing grace & radiating essence raised all around him into a like state of bliss. In that association with Lord Buddha, in that close communion with his heart & soul & spirit I was enabled to finish the course of my life upon this earth plane.

It was at that time that I took upon my shoulders the full responsibility of the Chohanship of the fifth ray, holding it thru my consciousness until the beloved apostle of Jesus, Paul, took it over. It is always my great honor & privilege whenever given opportunity to direct to the founders & students of religious orders of every kind the feeling of that happy joyous energy which is essential for their salvation. Even though the mission may be accomplished, even though the work may be well done, if those cores of unhappiness within one's own vehicles are not transmuted & raised, somewhere someday sometime at inner levels or on Earth one must learn the law of grace, happiness, love & joy in service!

In the name of the Most High Living God who called me & before whose Throne I have knelt, in the name of that Most High Living God who has served mankind thru their beating hearts I do now invoke from Alpha & Omega & from every sun of the system, from every Archangel & Archaei, from every Elohim, Cherubim, Seraphim & Ascended Master the fully gathered cosmic momentum of God-happiness into the mental, emotional, etheric & physical bodies of everyone within this room & all under this radiation. In the name of the Presence of God I charge, I charge, I charge that fully gathered cosmic momentum of God-happiness into your emotional bodies! Accept it! I charge, I charge, I charge the fully gathered cosmic momentum of God-happiness into your mental bodies! Accept it! I charge, I charge, I charge the fully gathered cosmic momentum of God-happiness into your etheric bodies! Accept it! I charge, I charge, I charge the fully gathered cosmic momentum of God-happiness into your physical bodies! Accept it with full power!

Let us just relax for a moment because I want you to feel the acceptance within yourselves. Let me explain to you, beloved ones, that you are the heart of the teaching of the New Age, from your hearts flow those lines of energy into the mental, feeling & etheric worlds of every student & every human being on this planet, so the feeling nature of any one of you is a contributing factor to the feelings of the entire body. It is therefore the request of the cosmic law that we can lower thru you some of this God-happiness & let it flow out that the student body & mankind of Earth may awaken from the sleep of the senses & desire to serve their kind in happiness rather than thru a sense of duty.

Feel yourselves magnetizing that happiness, the infinite mighty pressure & power of light, & then feel yourselves directing it into the world everywhere. There is as much difference between happiness & giddiness as there is between light & darkness. Happiness is a very positive quality but its possession demands the absolute control of energy which flows thru the lifestream. In the expression of the opposite extreme the individual has no control & the consciousness knows not exactly what it will do from moment to moment.

Mankind, experimenting with the development of happiness, so often come rather into that state of giddiness, let us call it for lack of a better name. Now, that is a dangerous state of consciousness & one against which I wish to warn you as you experiment with the drawing out of a joyous feeling from within yourself! You can recognize the vibratory action of anyone who is in masterful control of his energy by the buoyant radiation of perfect happiness which is always poised, always in control of the worlds & actions which can create fun, joy & happiness for others at no one's expense--then you have the uncontrolled activity of showing off, shall we say, which causes energy to vibrate, but the consciousness has no poise & very often the result is a barbed word, unkind gesture, & mimicry result. This is an inversion of our divine activity of happiness.

In this room there are none who are so undeveloped as to draw that flame of happiness thru them & find themselves becoming hysterical. However, in your dealings with the mass of mankind when you wish to radiate happiness be very careful as you expand it into an individual or a group because it has an activity within it that will often stir up the uncontrolled emotions & thought patterns of the undeveloped. So be very careful with your invocation of that flame of happiness until you learn first how to draw it in, thru & around yourselves in perfect & almighty poise!

Now you are going to have an assignment, a definite & specific assignment. If you were within any of our retreats you would be given an assignment per day & you would perhaps be given one by which you would have to produce a specific effect. If you were not able to complete the assignment within the time allotted for the task you would perhaps be dropped from the retreat & would be obliged to return to the world. You have had one assignment for 18 or 20 years, to use that violet fire until shadows no longer remained around you. Yet at the end of this period that assignment still remains unfilled! You are trying, true, but perhaps too hard. Now I AM going to give you an assignment which I ask you to work upon for a week. I AM going to ask you to control your four lower bodies & see if you can keep them in a vibration of undisturbed happiness. That does not sound like such a large assignment, does it?

Now, how are you going to keep happy? It will be a wonderful project for you, thinking about it alone because if you can keep yourself happy for a week, when the masses come to you for exodus from their chains, you will have built a momentum. If I could have kept those people happy after I got them out of the confines of Egypt I could have taken them in seven years of less into the promised land! If I could have kept myself happy I perhaps then could have kept them happy, do you see? Thus you may reap where I have sown, & while I wept bitter salty tears at seeing those who had worked under me go past me into glory & into fulfillment, may you stand with smiling faces & move with your phalanx into victory!

Now, keeping happy, beloved ones, is not a foolish idea. It is a discipline which is going to call to your attention the tremendous laxity with which your consciousness has dealt with your lower bodies & the tremendous tenacity that those lower bodies have to act independently of your self-conscious directing! Wait & see! Tomorrow morning you will think of me even more powerfully than you are thinking of me today! If you can keep your mind free of one thought that is worrisome, critical, doubting or distressing, you will have done alot. If you can do that for five minutes & then if you can do it for seven days, you can do it forever! Now, watch your mental processes when you awaken! It may not be too difficult until you contact your first human being. Then watch out! Watch the reaction of your mental body & you may see a cause for unhappiness because that discordant thought emits vibration & color & adds to the shroud which weighs down your energies.

Then watch your own feelings. Watch your feelings under pressure & you will see what your feeling world still has within it when it is crossed. If you can keep your feelings happy whether you have your way or not for five minutes under pressure, you can do it longer, & if you can do it for seven days you will never go back to a state of allowing your feelings to become turbulent because of any appearance. If you can keep the mind from turning backward to the etheric memories of injustice--this is something that the student body do not indulge in because you are so busy--but individuals that have a great deal of spare time & allow the mind to turn back & dwell upon past events add so much to the unhappiness of today thru memories of the past.

In, thru & around mental institutions & old peoples' homes you would be amazed to see the effluvia woven out of etheric bodies as individuals who have nothing to do but sit from dawn to dark just relive every unkind word & feeling, thought & action & radiate them forth into the atmosphere. If it were not for devas who envelop those places in their light, beloved people, the individuals within them would actually physically smother themselves by that radiation. It was the same but to a much greater extent in & around the "compound" where the people relived again, again & again the terrific crimes that they committed against cosmic law & life & light & rebuilded that radiation of darkness & of shadow.

In the ascended state it was my desire to reach thru to mankind & show them something of the experiences that the soul goes thru after passing out of the body when they are earthbound, when they are committed to the compound, when they become sleepers. You will remember that in the thirteenth century thru the kind offices of the Italian poet Dante I was enabled to free that soul sufficiently so that he could bring back some experiences & write them on the Book of Life for man to see. Mankind however took them just as a beautiful piece of literature & few realized that it was my endeavor to waken the souls of men while their bodies were still usable so that they could prevent similar conditions from taking place in their lives.

Now, beloved ones, in this activity if you will with me draw the power of happiness into mankind's experience we shall endeavor to anchor that current of radiation into the mental & feeling worlds of the student body which it must have if it is to survive! Physically too you may have conditions which require certain control so that you do not feel depressed by them. Once in every 24 hours I shall come with your permission into your auras individually & look upon your accomplishment along this line of that period. We shall see what seven days will bring! Expect me daily & I hope that my coming will give you no sense of strain, no sense of self-depreciation nor of condemnation if you don't have a perfect record. I hope that you will not brush aside my offer because it is an important one for you in the service which you are yet to render. Thank you for your kind & willing cooperation in helping me to spread happiness to all! LORD LING
