Kuan Yin
Goddess of Mercy and Compassion
"The
Lady Goddess Avalokitesvara/Kuan Yin will teach you much
about the points of mercy—mercy by mercy by mercy.
Mercy that is given
and returned: this is the true road to completeness and
wholeness."—Saint
Germain
"And we hold you accountable,
beloved, by mercy's flame for the Word
and the words that have already been sent."—Kuan
Yin, October 9, 1983
"Blessed ones, all of us
who have taken our leave of planet earth in the ritual
of the ascension have recognized ourselves as misfits
prior to our ascension.
And so did our peers so recognize us."—Kuan
Yin, July 1, 1988
"Therefore understand why
there is the oneness, why the Great Central Sun center
is needed, why the Western Shamballa, why the temple must
be builded,
why that forcefield must be ensconced materially and physically
by the only force
that can consecrate it, which is the threefold flame upon
the altar of the heart.
Nothing else will suffice."—Kwan Yin, October
9, 1983
332. "What is the nature
of the bodhisattvas' compassion? Without coercing the
will
they invisibly and patiently direct each suitable force
toward good. It is not difficult
to conduct oneself according to the guidance of the bodhisattvas,
for all characteristics of the Spirit are allowed for
by them."—El Morya, Agni Yoga 1929
"The little unremembered
acts of kindness and love are the best parts
of a person's life."—William Wordsworth
"Mercy, detached from justice,
grows unmerciful."—C.S. Lewis |
"In the name of Mercy's flame I release to you the
guardian action of the Mercy Seat.
" . . . And let there be the
rebuilding of the temple. And let there be the place of
the Great White Brotherhood. And let it come quickly,
O Lord Our righteousness, within these hearts.
"I AM Kuan Yin. I seal my heart one with the heart
of the Christ Self of each one."

" . . . Mercy is a gift freely
given and freely received. But it is not a right. It is
a privilege enjoyed by those who hold covenant with their
Maker and communion with the saints. It is a privilege
that can be suspended when abused and misused. Do not,
then, take the grace of God for granted. For by his free
will he may or may not forgive, he may or may not endow
those who cry to him, 'Lord, Lord,' with the gift of eternal
life. Life in its unendingness will move on, my beloved,
but the particles in the stream may be created, recreated,
or uncreated according to the free will of the Father
and his adopted Sons."

"To know mercy one must know God. To know the incarnation
of the mercy of God go to the Avalokitesvara/Kuan Yin. See
the fierceness of her mercy. See how mercy does become,
upon contact with the aura of the individual, precisely
the individual’s quality of mercy, whether there be
lack or largess of that mercy flame.
"Mercy is as mercy does. Mercy
is the great teacher that does teach the individual how
little gain there is from the paucity of mercy. Mercy
is the vastness of a cosmos with all of the creation having
itself come forth to give to child-man the merciful opportunity
to become God.
"There are cycles of the going
forth of mercy as opportunity and there are cycles when
that merciful opportunity returns to the heart of God,
as God does take mercy unto himself and is merciful unto
himself. Thus the great in-breath of mercy, beloved, results
in the canceling out of the nonmerciful, the unmerciful
denial of God’s mercy. May you think upon these
things. May you still the mind in the full activity of
the labor [so] that on another track you may contemplate
the Infinite One."

"My own chelas of the fiery flame of Mercy, I salute
you! I bless you! And I would report to you of my heart’s
own joy that, in these months of concentration upon my heart,
there has appeared in the West a unique manifestation of
my causal body and my Presence. For in these hundreds of
years, there has not been in the West so scientific a dedication
to a flame, to a consciousness, and to its defense.
"Therefore, I AM closer, O so much
closer to the hearts of people in this era and in this
continent. And my appearing first as the figure of the
Asian goddess, the Chinese 'Woman of the Sun,' figure
of mythology, becomes more and more a personal presence—personable
as the Mother of God, as friend on the highway of life.
" . . . I come, then, with
the greatest message of joy that I could bring—that
the doors are opened
in the West unto me through your hearts. Others have written
about me. They have collected the stories and legends
of my appearing and my intercession. And some may recite
my mantra.
But the scientific use of the sacred sword—your
own exercise of the science of the spoken Word, your acceptance
of the violet flame and your Mighty I AM Presence—has
made you a geometry of God, a nucleus, a tight forcefield
whereby you have held and held out against the opposition
to my coming so that here I AM physically congruent with
the messenger, touching you physically.
". . . One thing you can understand.
It is because my image is not regarded as associated with
controversial religious worship that it is received as
a work of art, as a symbol of a virtue. Often, then, people
will have in their homes or even in their public buildings,
restaurants, and hotels the image of Kuan Yin or the image
of Buddha when they would not erect a statue to Mother
Mary or to Jesus Christ."
|

"And when you also seek recourse in the Merciful
Heart of Kuan Yin, you come to understand from another
perspective that mercy is as mercy does—that is,
if you extend mercy to life, life extends mercy to you.
And if there is one thing that you can do, and that you
should be willing to do, to consume as quickly as possible
the remnants of pain from abuses to your soul recorded
in the conscious or unconscious mind, it is this—to
extend mercy to every part of Life and to have such a
profound, compassionate sense of mercy toward those who
have abused you or gone astray that you can say to yourself:
"'There but for the grace of God
go I. I will extend mercy to that part of Life, for no
matter what problems I am going through, I know that that
one needs me now. In the name of my Lord I will extend
a tender, merciful, supporting presence to lift that one
out of his bitterness toward parents, toward God, toward
life.'
"So you see, beloved, we have intertwined
the fourteen stations of the cross being borne by the
Woman and her seed betwixt these two heavenly beings,
braiding the Hail Mary with the Chinese mantras offering
homage to the sacred names of Kuan Yin. Thus combining
the Immaculate Heart of Mary with the Merciful Heart of
Kuan Yin, you have the two most well-known heavenly mothers
—one from the East and one from the West—to
guide you in balancing your Eastern and Western karmas.
"There is great value in studying
the origins of the mantras of Kuan Yin, for through these
you center your mind in the minds of the ancient ones
of China. And as you recite the mantras in purest devotion,
you begin to access the fohatic keys that are locked into
the formulas of the mantras. These keys release concentrated
foci of Light to the pure in heart. Thus you imbibe the
nectar of Kuan Yin’s wisdom, as she is one with
the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of the cosmos just as Mary
is one with the saints of Christendom and, if it is to
be known, the saints of all legitimate spiritual paths.
"These two
World Mothers take you to the Heart of the Divine Mother,
who is the source of Wisdom. It is she who unleashes its
floodgates. This is quite an initiation and powerful,
and she metes it out measure for measure and not all at
once. But the opening of those floodgates allows you to
receive understanding little by little and more and more
as you make it your goal to be in harmony in the will
of God. And now and again the heavenly spheres of your
Causal Body are opened to you where that great wisdom
is stored, and the Mind of God is opened to you through
your purest love for your Mighty I AM Presence."

" . . . And we hold you accountable, beloved, by
mercy's flame for the Word and the words that have already
been sent. For this, you understand, is your level of
maturity. You are not high school students!
" . . . Therefore we do not come
to entertain, and all that we give is the meat of the
Word and it is an understanding that is essential.
" . . . Beloved ones of light, somehow
the leaders of this nation, influenced by the fear of
death and hell itself, have preferred to keep the people
of America uninformed and without knowledge that is common
to those that live outside of this country—fearing
that the people will panic, fearing that the people will
challenge their leaders, fearing that the people will
organize.
" . . . I can assure you that endless
preparations have been made worldwide for the taking of
America through many means.
" . . . And the mercy of the law
does require therefore, when I stand in the presence of
those who have maimed life mercilessly, that the mercy
flame return in exact quantity the mercy which they have
shown life. Not only do they have an absence of mercy,
beloved hearts, they have a minus-mercy. For they have
pulled back their slingshots beyond the point of the Y
and they have taken from the not-side of life the full-gathered
momentum of the false hierarchy of anti-mercy.
" . . . Thus unto those who have
not given mercy is returned to them tenfold in this hour
their misqualification of that flame.
" . . . Do they desire to bring
in world Communism or World Socialism? I tell you, nay,
they have simply hung their hats on a particular ideology
as an excuse to vent their hatred and their murder for
the little ones of God.
" . . . You are in an era of the
death-throes of the dragon and the beast. Thus heed the
warning of the Presence of Mercy: take care! Take care
of your loved ones, your little ones, your leaders, your
Messengers. Take care of all the plan of God and cherish
each morsel of the Word that is for your protection."

" . . . We can traverse ten
thousand years of evolution by a single dictation, drawing
the soul to the heart, focusing your minds in the heart
of the Darjeeling Council.
" . . . Beloved ones, we are
your Gurus and we have come with the power of Alpha and
Omega, with the power of the light of the solar ring.
There is nothing we would not do for you if you will only
place your offering on the altar and be the most diligent
and serious class that has ever been a part of Summit
University. Your reward and the return current of our
light and love is directly proportionate, according to
mathematical formula, to that which you give and that
which you do day by day."

"Spiritual doves are flying in the rafters!
They come as points of light
From the heart of the Maha Chohan,
White and fluffy,
Carrying in their beaks flame flowers
As greeting from the abode of the Bodhisattvas.
For there I AM,
Keeping the flame of Gautama Buddha.
And here I AM,
Keeping the flame of the Buddha of your heart
Who is to become the one who is
The bearer of the seed of Light,
Even of Alpha.
"Meditate then, beloved,
Upon the most beautiful light of the Buddha
Meditating within your heart.
Your heart is not only the abode of the Buddha
As the Eastern and the Western Shamballa
Of the Inner Retreat—
Your heart is a fiery galaxy where angels meet
To contemplate the mystery of the Word.
"Thus, all inside there, in the
Inner Retreat,
Is the unfolding of Mercy’s flame flowers
And, from heaven, roses and bowers of light.
For this is truly the harvest of love,
As it is the harvest of the year
In Serapis Bey’s dispensation
Of the third ray and the pink flame
And the acceleration of the ruby blood of Christ
By the white-fire purity of his mystical body
In the ascension mode—
White-fire purity expanding God’s love.
And behold!
What miracles of Kuan Yin
May come to pass in your life.
" . . . Thus, I reveal to you the
infinity
Of the sine wave of your being
And the power of acceleration by Mercy’s flame!
Thus, to drop the torch of Mercy’s love
Is to estrange yourself
From my aura and from my garment.
It is to lose ground already gained and won.
It is to have to start again
To mount unto the sun.
" . . . Understand my message well.
Out of Mercy’s heart I speak
That it does not suffice
To decree and decree again
Nor to serve and serve again.
The goal of God-mastery is the Path—
And you know it well!
It begins in the feeling body and in the desires
Of heart and mind and soul.
It begins in the emotions
And the conquering of all energy flow.
" . . . Pass through me if you will!
For if you will it,
You will be washed by Mercy’s flame
Until all that remains in view of you,
In heaven or on earth,
Will be the essence of God-reality.
"I AM Kuan Yin,
And I choose to lower my vibration
To the very levels of the desire body
And the place of the sun
Where the sun of Helios and Vesta
Ought to shine from you in perfect peace.
"Let the solar plexus now release
Every foul and unclean thing
Into the intensity of the violet flame
Which I bring from all of the retreats
Of the Great White Brotherhood
And the heart of Omri-Tas!
"Now then, feel the purging and
the clearing,
The washing and the wholeness!
Let the place of the sun,
As the point of mastery
Of Jesus Christ and Gautama Buddha,
Be in you
Whereby the astral plane itself
Will dry up by the sacred fire you release
And be swept away by the movement
Of the waters of the Word.
"O crystal starlight
In causal bodies of my beloved,
Be lowered now!
And let the crystal fire mist reveal
Doves of the Spirit who coo and fly
And tenderly reveal the heart of God.
"I AM come to steal from you
That which you would most let go of!
I trust it is this tendency toward impatience,
Irritation, and discord of every kind.
Without these burdens—
Come, let us fly!
Let us fly to the sun, O my beloved.
Let us fly and be together—
One, all One.
AUM."

Kuan Yin |
Avalokitesvara [Sanskrit, "the lord who sees" or
"the lord who hears the sounds of the world" or
"the lord who is seen"], known in China as the feminine
being Kuan Yin or Kuan Shih Yin and in Japan as Kannon, Kwannon,
or Kwanzeon. In Mahayana Buddhism, Avalokitesvara is the bodhisattva
of infinite compassion and mercy; a bodhisattva is literally
a "being of wisdom" who is destined to become a
Buddha but has foregone the bliss of Nirvana with a vow to
save every being on earth.
Avalokitesvara is a divine emanation of the Dhyani Buddha
Amitabha, who embodies the quality of compassion in its highest
sense. As one of the most popular and beloved Buddhist figures,
Avalokitesvara's attributes and miracles are recounted in
many scriptures (sutras). His assistance is invoked often,
especially for protection from natural disasters and calamities,
to resolve personal and family problems, and to bestow children.
The Surangama Sutra records that Avalokitesvara has the power
to appear in thirty-two different bodily forms, according
to the different types of beings he is trying to save, and
that he has the power to bestow fourteen kinds of fearlessness.
Devotees invoke Avalokitesvara's power and merciful intercession
through the mantra OM MANI PADME HUM ("Hail to the jewel
in the lotus!").
The worship of Avalokitesvara can be traced back to the second
century in China and was well established in Tibet by the
seventh century. Tibetan Buddhists believe that Avalokitesvara
is incarnated in each Dalai Lama (the spiritual and temporal
ruler of Tibet; the fourteenth Dalai
Lama was forced to flee the country following the 1959 Tibetan
uprising against the Chinese).
Avalokitesvara is often portrayed with a thousand arms and
varying numbers of eyes, heads and hands, sometimes with an
eye in the palm of each hand. In this form he is looking in
all directions, sensing the afflictions of mankind and striving
to alleviate them. His female consort is the White Tara, who
is said to have been born of a tear shed by him in compassion
for the distress of sentient beings.
In his 1987 New Year's Eve address, Gautama Buddha said,
"It is an hour that you may also reach out through the
Presence of Avalokitesvara to save that which can be saved."
See Pearl no. 2, pp. 10, 11, 13, 15, 18, 19, 20.
