The Master Alchemist of the Violet Flame

The students of the Ascended Masters are challenged to BE the Master Alchemists of the violet flame. By God-design, as sons and daughters of the Most High, it is their divine inheritance to apply the sacred science of the violet flame first into their own world and then into the lives of others, and help restore divine wholeness to every part of life. Yes, this miraculous transformation of self is possible for all who are ready for it. The first step begins by invoking violet flame to transmute all negative conditions existing both within and without. The secrets of the violet flame are waiting to be revealed to those who have prayed to God to BE the greater vessels of the Holy Spirit to alleviate planetary sufferings during these trying times. Two most important questions one might ask: (1) what is the majesty of violet flame that accomplishes this mighty miracle of self-transformation? and, (2) how can one become a Master Alchemist of the violet flame and thus become an instrument of personal and planetary healing?

First, let us try to understand some basic characteristics of the violet flame. The violet flame is more than violet light. It is an invisible spiritual energy that appears violet to those who have developed their spiritual vision. In previous centuries, the knowledge of the violet flame was given only to a few advanced souls (adepts) who had achieved a certain level of spiritual mastery. Saints and sages from across the world have long used the violet flame to accelerate their spiritual development.

The violet flame serves many purposes. It is the color and frequency of this spiritual light that stimulates positive qualities such as, justice, freedom and transmutation. The violet flame revitalizes and invigorates the human body. It can heal emotional and even physical problems, restore natural rhythm and newness to life, and bring joy, peace and harmony to relationships by transmuting or altering the energies vibrating at a lower level into a higher level of vibration.

Alchemists have used the term, "transmutation" in the past, to explain the changing of base metals into gold by separating the "subtle" from the "gross" by the application of heat. In fact, the real purpose of alchemical transmutation is spiritual transformation and the attainment of eternal life by changing lower energies of human self into the higher energies of the divine self. That is precisely what violet flame can do for the aspirants. It separates out the "gross" elements (i.e., negative energy) from the gold of seeker's true inner self so that the soul can achieve everlasting spiritual oneness with her maker.

Once a seeker begins to use the violet flame to clean up his aura, he discovers that it can create positive changes at all levels of his being. The violet flame can free the devotee to progress spiritually, to enjoy the full benefit of positive energies descending from his God Presence and to realize his highest potential. The more a devotee invokes violet flame by giving violet-flame decrees, the faster he frees himself from the surrounding conditions and circumstances that confine him to human limitations. As an instrument of God's work, he is enabled (empowered) to help free others from conditions of distress and misery as he learns to direct violet flame into the local and global conditions of unrest. The devotee finds out that when other people come into contact with the violet flame saturated in his aura, they too receive contagious healing and spiritual upliftment.

The roadmap for the Master Alchemist of violet flame is to pursue his quest in utter humility, deepest love and highest honor for the indwelling Higher Self. This knowledge of the violet flame must be revered as a sacred science and should not be violated at any cost by the aspirant. One of the most important concepts the alchemist must believe in is to let God be the doer. "Let go and let God" is the requirement of the law for those who aspire to be the Master Alchemists of the violet flame. It simply means letting God to be central to one's life-every thought, word and deed. Every situation the devotee encounters should be turned over to the individualized Higher Self for the God-solution to be released.

So, what is the requirement to become a Master Alchemist? As someone said recently, "To know your Real Self is a free will choice that requires discipline and a desire to know God above all else. To ignore your real identity is to decide to be a wanderer with no clear anchor or vision for your life. ---- Alchemy requires the conquering of the finite self. And alchemy requires creation. In order to create with beauty and responsibility, you must be in touch with your Higher Self. ---- As long as the finite self is in control, you cannot achieve true spiritual freedom." (A Special Dispensation from the Darjeeling Council of the Great White brotherhood, Summit University Press, Corwin Springs, MT, pp. 60-65)

The first step in alchemy, therefore, requires the routing out of all selfishness and self-love from within, and staying in perpetual communion with God, the Mighty I AM Presence. It requires staying abreast of the energies flowing in the four lower bodies of the aspirant. In fact, it mandates one to stay calm and maintain harmony and peace amidst the emotional storms brewing all around. Some have called this process as "acting as a watchman upon the wall of one's own consciousness."

The process begins by entering into an inner communion with the Real-Self, developing a listening ear, and initiating a conscious process of Self-monitoring and Self-correcting aimed at getting rid of underlying negative traits of inharmony and discord within one's own consciousness. There are four basic steps involved in this process:

Step 1: Make a conscious effort to acknowledge negative energies of human discord flowing within one's consciousness.

Step 2: Invoke the Law of Forgiveness (and violet flame decrees) on behalf of yourself and others who you think may be the reason of the discord.

Step 3: Pray to God to free you from those negative energies as you surrender them to God.

Step 4: Pray to God to fill-in the void with the divine opposite quality of the discord.

Please note that the gradual mastery of these four steps would lead to everlasting spiritual freedom. This is a major initiative for the aspirant of the violet flame that can unlock the potential of the genius within to allow God to take charge of one's life. The awareness or unawareness of Real-Self as the God-Self is what makes each person either the master of his life (destiny) or hold him down to a level of mediocrity. It can be said that mediocrity is self-inflicted and that genius is self-bestowed.

When a seeker becomes the Master Alchemist of the violet flame, he understands the secrets of the violet flame. The passion for the violet flame has consumed the devotee completely and he sees himself as a walking talking pillar of violet flame that has a magnificent glow of violet flame, which brings healing, and comfort to rest of the world.Violet flame has literally saturated his aura as he basks in the oceans of violet flame.

This is the story of making of a Master Alchemist for the Age of Aquarius.
