A Spiritual Organization, also known as The Great White Brotherhood, composed of those Ascended Masters who have Arisen from our Earth into Immortality, and yet have said: "We are not going on into Cosmic Heights and leaving our brothers and sisters on Earth behind. We will stay and assist." At this moment in Cosmic History, the Door is wide open. The Great White Brotherhood is sponsoring the Release of the Spoken Word through conclaves, seminars, writings, books, and through personal discipleship and training. The Brotherhood of Light also includes Members of the Heavenly Host, the Spiritual Hierarchy directly concerned with the evolution of our world, Beneficent Members from other planets that are interested in our welfare, as well as certain unascended chelas.
A Chohan is an Ascended Master that focuses the Christ Consciousness of one of the Seven Rays of God's Manifestation, becoming the Law of the Ray and governing Its use in man. A Lord or Master; a high Adept; an Initiate who has taken more Initiations than the five major Initiations which make man a "Master of the Wisdom".
One of "Seven Mighty Beings who, having passed the Sixth Initiation, have the Power to focus within Themselves the Ray-Streams or Attributes of Logoic Consciousness" (The Secret Doctrine by Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, 5th Adyar edition, Volume 6, page 452)
The Seven Chohans of the Rays are Ascended Masters representing the Attributes of the Solar Logos and Christ Consciousness of each Ray to Earth's evolutions.
The Holy Christ Self — also known as the Higher Mental Body, the Higher Self, or the Guardian Angel — is the "Only Begotten One of God." Beloved Kuthumi described this Body as "the only part of you created solely by God, in contrast to your human consciousness." (Pearls of Wisdom, December 2, 1960 - Volume 3 Number 49) It is the Christ Mind that is aware of the Perfection of the God Presence, but is also aware of the imperfections and requirements of the outer self. It does not accept any imperfection of the outer human self, but remains Pure and Perfect. The Holy Christ Self is endowed with the Discriminating Intelligence to act in the outer self. It has been described as a "Step-down Transformer" with the ability to act in the lower human realms. It is an Intelligent Being with a Body of Light that is of a lower vibratory rate than the God Presence.
The Electronic Body is the Immortal Body which the I AM Presence — a Divine Spirit — uses as one of Its Vehicles of Expression. This Electronic Body has Divine Purity and Structure, and forever remains "Eternally Youthful, Beautiful, Strong, Perfect, and Free from every conceivable limitation. In this Body, Individuals can and do function wherever they choose in the universe, for in It there are no barriers of time, place, space, nor condition." Beloved Jesus referred to this Body when He spoke of the Seamless Robe or the Bridal Garment of the Spirit. No imperfection can ever be recorded in or upon It, for It is composed of Pure Electronic Light. Saint Germain has stated that: "Every human being sometime, somewhere must raise the outer or atomic structure into the Imperishable, Electronic Body, where no imperfection exists." (The Magic Presence, by Godfre Ray King, 1974 - 4th edition, pages 63 - 66, 87)
The Great Central Sun is the Source and Center of the Galaxy and a Cosmos. It is the Nucleus of Integration of the Spirit/Matter Cosmos, and the Origin of all physical and spiritual creation. It is the Heart of the God Life of the Universe. "The Great Central Sun is One with every individual's Mighty I AM Presence." (Jesus, October 1, 1939, Voice of the I AM®, November 1939, page 7)

The Cosmic Hierarchy is a "Universal Chain" of Individualized God Free Beings fulfilling Attributes and Aspects of God's Infinite Selfhood. Included in this Cosmic Hierarchical scheme are Solar Logoi, Elohim, Sons and Daughters of God, Cosmic Beings, the Twelve Solar Hierarchies, Archangels, Angels, Beings of the Elements, and Twin Flames of the Alpha-Omega Polarity sponsoring Systems of Worlds and entire Galactic Systems. This Universal Order of Divine Self-Expression is the means whereby God in the Great Central Sun steps down the Presence and Essence of His Universal Being / Consciousness in order that all Life in time and space might give and receive Unconditional Divine Love. One's placement on this "Ladder of Life" in the Spirit / Matter Universes is determined by one's level of Spiritual Attainment - measured by Awareness and Manifestation of balanced Love, Wisdom, and Power - as well as the embodying of other Divine Qualities.
Human creation is that mis-creation which human beings create with a consciousness of being separate from God - separate from Divine Ideals and Inspiration. It is limited creation that is the result of carnal and mortal motivations, with a tendency toward human equations of desire, egotism, self conceit or self concern. There may be a measure of vanity, or pride, or prejudices inherent within the thoughts and feeling world. Most of these can be very subtle.
For thousands of years the inner understanding of the Name of God and the Creative Words — "I AM" — had been restricted to the Retreats of the Great White Brotherhood and given only after a three year probation. However because of the urgency of the hour and the urgent need for the children of God on Earth to have greater Assistance, the Dispensation was granted Saint Germain for this Teaching to be given to the outer world. In The "I AM" Discourses, Saint Germain explained that the Words "I AM" release the full Power of God in Action. They are the first expression of every self-conscious being. "I AM" is the purest and highest Principle of Life, of the Individualized God Presence, of the Universal Intelligence that is ever endeavoring to bring forth the Manifestation of the Original Pristine State of the God Source.
We have an Individualized Presence of God — the Mighty I AM Presence — as part of our very Nature and Being. This is that Part of each one — the God Self — which is the Imperishable, Eternal, Individual Identity of every person. This is the Individualized Flame of Life from the Great Central Sun. It is the I AM THAT I AM; the God-Identity of the individual; the Divine Ego, the Immortal Monad, the individual's Source.
The Stream of Life that comes forth from the individualized God Presence — the I AM Presence — in the Planes of Spirit, and descends to the planes of Matter where it manifests as the Threefold Flame anchored in the heart chakra (in the "secondary heart chamber" or "secret chamber of the heart" for the sustaining of the individual identity and the four lower bodies in the matter planes. "Lifestream" denotes the ongoing nature of the individual through its cycles of individualization on this and other worlds. It is used to denote the developing and evolving "individual" - whose Sacred Destiny is to eventually manifest Christ Mastery and the Qualities that are worthy of being made Immortal through the Ascension.
Lightbearer means one who carries or sustains the Light of the Christ and bears the responsibility for Christhood in himself and others by defending the Truth and Honor of God. Beloved Gautama Buddha considers every person with a Threefold Flame to be a "Lightbearer".
The Messengers of the Great White Brotherhood are anointed by the Hierarchy as Their representatives who deliver Dictations of the Ascended Masters that provide the Instruction and Illumination that is deemed most vital for our time. Another very important function is to anchor Light in the matter planes of the Earth. This is to assist in the raising of the vibratory frequencies of our planet during this transition period into our Earth's new Cosmic Cycle in this System of Worlds. A Messenger is trained by the Ascended Masters to receive by various methods the words, concepts, teachings, and messages of the Great White Brotherhood. Although there are only "Two Messengers" of the Brotherhood, the "Two Messengers" constitute the Office of the "Two Witnesses" spoken of in the Book of Revelation. This is a high and holy calling to which Twin Flames are ordained in every age. As there is only One Christ, so there are many Manifestations of the Office of the Christ; and as there are Offices in Hierarchy, so the Opportunity to Serve in those Offices is given to Ascended and unascended Sons and Daughters of God as they evolve in the Hierarchy of the Great White Brotherhood.
The Threefold Flame of the Holy Christ Self is the Spark of Life anchored in the secret chamber of the heart in the sons and daughters of God and the children of God. (Epistle to the Galatians chapter 4 verse 6: " . . . God hath sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts . . . ") The Sacred Trinity of Power, Wisdom, and Love, that is the Manifestation of the Sacred Fire, is only one-sixteenth of an inch high within the average human heart. It is made up of a Blue Plume, a Yellow Plume and a Pink Plume of Radiant God-Charged Electronic Light. Each Plume is a manifest Focus of God Qualities. The Blue Plume of Spiritual Power relates to Faith, Good Will and the Divine Intent. The Yellow Plume of Divine Wisdom relates to Illumination, to the right use of Knowledge, and to the expansion of the Intelligence of the Godhead into the chalice of the heart and mind. The Pink Plume of Divine Love provides the Qualities of Mercy, Compassion, Justice, and Creativity. The Threefold Flame is the Sun Center and Source of Life to the physical body. The expansion of a person's Threefold Flame brings him closer to his own eternal Freedom in the Ascension. When we speak of the Presence of God "within" each one, we are refering to the Glorious Victorious Threefold Flame of Eternal Truth within.
The Violet Flame is the Cosuming Flame of Divine Love and Compassion. This Violet Fire is the Grace of the Ascended Host that allows the transmutation and consuming of human creation that is not worthy of becoming Immortal, and all negative karmic causes, effects, records, and memories, without the need to individually balance that karma face-to-face with each individual back to the earliest beginning of our individualized manifestation on this or any other world. Saint Germain has explained that by calling to the Mighty I AM Presence to release this Action of the Sacred Fire, a person can purify the mind and body of unnecessary substances which hinder the Flow of Light and thus clear the consciousness to receive greater Illumination. This Flame of God elevates the unhappy substance of human creation back into its Original Pristine Radiance.
