I AM the ascended master Saint Germain. I AM the Hierarch for the Golden Age for planet earth and I intend to use this conference to give a series of teaching dictations concerning the topic you have chosen: “The Descent of the Golden Age.”
This is a large topic, I am sure you realize, and I can’t cover it all in a series of dictations. I could not even cover it in a thousand dictations because there are many aspects of the descent of the golden age that cannot be expressed in words. They are only brought into manifestation through the descent of the WORD.
You see, the Word, as it is mentioned in the Gospel of John, is an expression of the Christ Consciousness. Of course, the Word is more than words. The Word can be expressed through words, but it cannot be captured by or confined to words. Words are, of course, of the material realm and that which is of the material can express and outpicture the immaterial, but it does not define the immaterial and thus it cannot confine the immaterial.
The descent of the golden age is first and foremost that a civilization becomes open to the descent of the immaterial into the material world and that a civilization allows the immaterial to determine the material expression in that society in everything from the highest levels of the government, through art, music, culture and even the individual lives; and especially relationships and family relationships of the people.
No centralized worldly government
Let me discourse, in this opening discourse, on one of the more subtle aspects of the descent of the golden age, an aspect that few people have even begun to grasp and understand. I wish to extend an opportunity to those who are open. Let me make it clear that what I will say here applies to every nation on earth. Surely, different nations are on different levels. Some may not be quite ready to internalize what I am going to teach, nevertheless all nations have a potential.
We of the ascended masters hold the vision for each nation. We do not see what is currently manifest as permanent or unavoidable, we do not even see it as wrong or bad. We do not judge according to the standard that you see on earth, the standard which we have many times now made you aware is the standard created by the fallen beings and the fallen mindset. Of course, one of the more subtle aspects of the descent of the golden age is that humankind must begin to rise above that fallen mindset: the tendency to judge according to a standard that can be expressed in words instead of letting the Living Word be the standard, or rather set a matrix that is beyond any standard on earth.
Let me take you back through history. Let us go back and look at some of the civilizations in the past that at least today are considered “great civilizations.” You have seen many such civilizations around the world even in the brief time span you call recorded history. Of course, all history is recorded; it is just that right now on earth you only have access to a fragment of the total record of past civilizations.
Nevertheless, here in this area of Central Asia you have seen great civilizations of the past, and by “great” I mean civilizations that have had a great level of organization. They were collected under one or a few rulers and therefore by being so-called “unified” under one command they could also be unified in carrying out certain tasks that could not be carried out by smaller civilizations. This might be building great cities, it might be building great armies and fighting other armies. This, of course, is not what we of the ascended masters call a great task, but my point is to show that in the past you have seen the formation of certain very large civilizations.
These civilizations reached a very high level of organization and a high level of ability to get things done in the physical, the material world. Look at some of these civilizations in China. Look at some in Central and Southeast Asia, in India, in Persia, the Middle East, Sumerians, Egyptians, and the Roman Empire and in Central and South America. You see this tendency that civilizations would arise that would build great cities and great monuments, some of which even stand today.
It is entirely possible that when people hear the concept that there is a potential of the coming of the golden age, and possibly even a physical golden age that will surpass any of the golden ages seen in the past – then they come to think that somehow the golden age will be modeled on the great civilizations of the past, that it will have a great level of organization. The world will, so to speak, be united under one centralized government and that this government can issue edicts or that things will be done, or they will often be done, the same way around the world.
Filtering out diversity kills creativity
Do you see that in the past these “great” civilizations had attained what they attained by having a very centralized structure, a centralized philosophy but also a very centralized standard for how you judged right and wrong, good and bad, how you judged, a standard of how people should behave? What these civilizations did in the past was they would achieve their results by shutting out diversity, by putting down, by destroying by filtering away diversity so that they had a centralized structure such that all they had were people that behaved according to a certain set of rules, often defined by a religion but filtering down to the laws of society.
You may take a more recent look, for example, at the Roman Empire. Again, a very centralized structure and a very centralized philosophy, and of course the willingness to use force. In every civilization in the past that has achieved greatness there has been a willingness to use force against those who would not follow the leaders of that civilization, those who claimed their right to diversify rather than to “unify.” Force through sameness.
Now then, I AM Saint Germain. I AM an ascended being. I have ascended by transcending all of the patterns and matrices on earth. I have transcended the entire fallen mindset. Thus, I tell you with absolute determination: “The Golden Age of Saint Germain that is prophesied to come into physical manifestation in this 2,000-year period of the Age of Aquarius will not be attained by destroying diversity or by creating a centralized world government. There will be centralized governments, there will even be one overseeing government for the entire planet, but it will not use force and it will not destroy diversity. This is not the vision of Saint Germain.”
My vision is to create a golden age based on diversity. Even though there is a need to have a certain outer apparatus of organization that can coordinate around the world; this centralized organization will coordinate, it will not dictate. It will not use force, it will not even bring forth a centralized religion or philosophy that all must follow. Why will it not do this? Because if there ever is to be a lasting worldwide organization, it will based on the recognition of the principles that I, Saint Germain, will reveal as the founding principles and the sustaining principles of my golden age.
No more exclusivity
Such an organization will recognize that there is a level beyond the material world and that there are intelligent beings in that world that can communicate with human beings. More importantly, it will recognize that we of the ascended masters can communicate through any human being, not necessarily any and all, but we do not communicate exclusively through a small elite or one person. We can potentially communicate with any person regardless of their status or position in the earthly organization or civilization. The Golden Age of Saint Germain will be based on the descent of the Word, which is an expression of the Holy Spirit—and the Holy Spirit bloweth where it listeth. Or rather, when it comes to the golden age it bloweth where I listeth for I am the overseer of the golden age.
You can see the civilizations of the past and how they were all based on exclusivity, which is the idea that only one person could rule or only one person could be the intermediary between God or the gods and man. Look at the Roman Empire and how it was based on the idea of one emperor who in certain periods was even seen as God on earth. The spiritual arrogance of certain emperors was such that they defined themselves as gods on earth.
Today, no secular ruler does this but you do indeed see people in spiritual and religious movements who have the arrogance to define themselves as the exclusive incarnation of God or a certain God. You see how the Roman Empire took the idea that the Emperor was God on earth, transferred it to Christianity and now created the philosophy that Jesus was the only intermediary between God and the people, but that there was a church that controlled the people’s access to what was administered by Jesus. Thus came the whole superstructure of the Catholic Church with the Pope as the Vicar of Christ.
Why does Christ need a Vicar when Christ instituted the tradition of the Comforter, the Holy spirit that could speak through anyone, blowing where it listesth? If you can make sense of this, my beloved, then you can do something I cannot do for I cannot make sense of it. Of course, I do not see through the filter of the fallen consciousness and I realize that many well-meaning people simply have been deceived. They have no evil intent, they only intended to do the best. They thought they were Christ’s representatives, they thought they were doing what Christ wanted them to do, but they failed to do the one thing that can manifest the golden age, which was to tune in to the Spirit in their own hearts.
There will not be only one messenger
My beloved, this messenger certainly does not have the spiritual pride that makes him think that there will come a day where the secular leaders of the world would look to him or any other messenger in order to tell them how to do everything through a dictation. There will indeed be messengers, and there will be multiple messengers in the Aquarian Age. There will be some that hold a position where society can and will listen to what is given through them, yet do not fall into the trap of thinking that I, Saint Germain, envision a society where at the very top of a hierarchical structure is a messenger of the ascended masters. This is not our plan; this is not our vision at all.
Even if we could get all of the governments and all of the people to listen to one messenger who was sponsored by the ascended masters, this still is not what we desire for the golden age. The Golden Age of Saint Germain is a golden age of diversity where the Spirit finds expression through millions of people, in a variety of ways, who are the open doors for receiving something: an idea, an expression, art, music what have you. There are those today who have never heard about ascended masters and do not need to hear about ascended masters in order to be open doors for the matrices of the golden age that I am already letting descend upon the material world as a gentle rain of golden, sometimes multicolored raindrops.
You all are open to the existence of Saint Germain. That means you have the potential to consciously attune yourselves to my Being and to consciously catch some of these raindrops, the raindrops that are falling, as you might envision, from the very intricate matrices that I have set up in the Cave of Symbols, the symbols for the etheric blueprint of the golden age. The light streams through these multifaceted, sometimes very complex, symbols and it is then colored and charged and falls with them. The light falls as you might envision raindrops, sparkling drops of rain that reflect the light from which they came.
Expressing ideas in society
My beloved, being consciously aware of the ascended masters is of great value, but it really only is of great value if you express it, as we have said a number of times now. This does not mean that you walk around in society going from door to door like some religious movements that pound on the door and are ready to preach to anyone who will let them in. You do not have to openly seek to convert other people to follow the teachings of the ascended masters, neither through this nor any other messenger. There are many of you who have it in your divine plans to be the open doors, but it is through expressing ideas in your field of expertise in society.
You can express these ideas in a universal way without ever referring to us, and this is something I wish to mention. In previous ascended master organizations we have seen some of our students who had the best of intentions to help materialize the Golden Age of Saint Germain, but who like many religious people became deceived by their fervor. They expressed their fervor through their own unresolved psychology. There has been a certain number of students who have had the tendency that they wanted to convert other people, that they were attached to outer results and that therefore they attempted to use us as the ultimate authority so that they could get people to listen.
You will see the same in some Christian groups that use the Bible as the ultimate authority and go around from door to door and knocking on peopled doors. If you let them in, they attempt to beat you into submission through the authority, the infallible authority, of the Bible as the only word of God according to the specific interpretation of that word decided upon by the leaders of their church. We have no desire to see ascended master students do this for it is not your highest potential. Your highest potential is to tune in to whichever ascended master is closest to you and then become an open door for what that master wants to bring forth—not what your outer mind thinks that this master wants to bring forth or should bring forth according to a standard you have created.
I do not even care if you have created a standard based on past ascended master teachings. Whatever standard you have created will be colored by your outer mind for the Holy Spirit bloweth where it listeth. It does not blow through the standard created by the outer mind! Only if you make an effort to make yourself the “open” door with no screen, then can you be the fullness of the expression of the Living Word that you have the potential to be. In many cases, the Holy Spirit will blow where it listeth by expressing an idea through your work, some area of expertise that you have in society.
It is not the goal of the Holy Spirit to convert other people to the ascended masters’ teachings. It is the goal to bring forth ideas that can be incorporated into materializing a higher expression of the golden age. Does that mean you can never talk about ascended masters? No, it does not, but you need to be sensitive and as a general rule, in many cases when you are out in society, do not talk about ascended masters unless someone asks you in private, one-on-one: “Where do you get these ideas from?” Then you can tell them, but you do not need to use us as an authority.
You need to be willing to be the open door, expressing an idea and letting the idea do its work. It may be that people reject it, as Sanat Kumara just discoursed on. Many people will reject the Light, but the light will still make a difference. Why will the Light make a difference? Because whenever the Light is expressed, you give people an opportunity to either choose the Light or to choose to continue in their present level of consciousness. You give them the opportunity to accept the Light or reject the Light. They did not have that opportunity before they encountered the expression of the Light through you, before they encountered something that was immaterial or rather not all based on the fallen standard. This is what Jesus did when he walked the Earth in a physical body.
There will be no use of force
The people who met him, they all saw something in him that they had never seen in any other human being. By the mere fact that Jesus walked among people as the open door, he did the work that was meant to be done. Due to the Light, they became subject to the School of Hard Knocks, the second law of thermodynamics, and those who actively attacked the Living Christ, the Light would actually accelerate their downward spiral so that they quicker came to their point of no return where they could not continue to embody on this planet.
You may see that Jesus himself was killed, and from an outer viewpoint did Jesus attain anything in that embodiment? Not from an outer viewpoint, but nevertheless he created the spiral that carried humanity through the Piscean Age and that led to the fact that he today can express his true teachings in a more palatable and more easy to understand form. It has led to the fact that we of the ascended masters today can openly reveal our Presence through the Spoken Word, that is harder to deny than previous expressions. While we still respect free will and plausible deniability, we have given people a closer contact with us than they could have had 2,000 years ago. I assure you that 2,000 years ago having a sponsored messenger was simply an impossibility due to the level of the collective consciousness.
My point here is this: In the Golden Age of Saint Germain you will see diversity, diversification. There will not be one spiritual or religious organization, nor will there be one organization of government that will dominate the golden age, that will dictate or that will use force. There are sometimes ascended master students who have looked at conditions on earth and seen how bad they really are. As we have said in our conference in Russia, it is necessary to look at conditions the way they are and to honestly assess: “Yes, there is something we need to overcome. Yes, we have a higher potential, and we could do better.” But when students of the ascended masters have done this, have been awakened to the fact that things are not the highest potential right now, they sometimes become so zealous that they are almost ready to use force.
For example, we recently saw in a previous dispensation that some among the student body supported the use of force to end the Soviet Union. They were ready to go to war even if it was a devastating world-wide war, or at least a war with worldwide consequences, in order to end what they saw as, in the words of a certain President: the Evil Empire. We of the ascended masters certainly saw problems with the Soviet Empire, there is no question about this. But we also saw from the ascended realm the hearts of the Russian people. Do you really think that we of the ascended masters were so intent on destroying the Soviet Empire that we were willing to kill millions of the Russian people in order to attain this goal?
How force-based empires vanish
Certainly, you can see – if you are open to these teachings – that we were not willing to do this for we saw the potential that what did happen could happen. We saw that it could be dissolved by not only a few people among the leaders making a decision, but they made that decision because there had been a certain raising of the consciousness of the people, not only in Russia but in all of the Republics that were part of the Soviet Union.
You realize, do you not, that when one country, such as Russia, suppresses a number of other countries it may seem as if they have power over those countries, but when you suppress another country by force it is not a one-way street. It is not that you are exercising power. Yes, you may be exercising power, physical power and material power, but there is a return current of the consciousness of the conquered nations to the nation that conquered them. Whatever happened in the outlying Soviet Republics had an influence on the Soviet power apparatus centered in Moscow.
There was an exchange of consciousness, and it was in the beginning the Soviet Republics that raised their consciousness and demanded more freedom. This created a figure-eight flow that eventually made it possible for certain leaders, even as dense as their consciousness was, so that even in the few moments that they had where they were not completely drunk with vodka, they could still make a realistic assessment and say: “It is time to end this; it is time to end this.”
There are indeed situations on earth where you can look at certain power structures and certain civilizations or empires and you can say—you must say: “It is time to end this.” The manifestation of power is such that if the people do not voluntarily end it, it will become subject to the second law of thermodynamics, the force of Shiva, that breaks down that which is out of touch with the growth in the consciousness of the people. This is why you have seen certain past civilizations that seemed to be indestructible. They had lasted for decades or centuries but suddenly something happened, either from within or without, that caused them to collapse within a very short period of time.
Why violent empires are allowed to rise
Yes, there is sometimes a need to say: “It is time to end this cycle.” But be careful and realize a very important principle, a very subtle principle, that I said I wanted to discourse on, and that it this: Free will is such that whatever people desire to outpicture in the material world, they must be allowed to outpicture it for a time. They need to see the physical manifestation of the ideas that they have come to accept, even sometimes subconscious ideas and matrices.
I wish to give you an idea that I know will be shocking to many people around the world, even many of the ascended master students from previous dispensations. The fact is that you can take an empire such as the Nazi Empire and you can look at the history of the rise of Hitler and how he came to power. You can look at how he took power by force and deceit, by all means possible. You may say that he stole that power or that he forced the Germans people and the German nation into submitting to his reign, but you see, you cannot force any nation against the consciousness of the people. It would not have been possible for Hitler to take power in 1933 unless he had locked in to and ridden the wave of what had been going on in the collective consciousness of the time.
You need to understand that the collective consciousness is driven by individual people, and that means that if you look at a part of the population, such as the Germans in the 1930’s, there was a certain percentage among them that were to some degree the open doors for the flow of Spirit. They were not truly the open doors in the sense that they were completely clear, but they had the ability to receive some stream of energy, which filtered through their beings and was then expressed through their outer consciousness. This means that the flow of energy was colored by their beliefs, and even they were to some degree swept up in that collective movement in the German consciousness. They were not always consciously aware of what they were doing, but they did not have enough clarity to recognize just how far out of line Hitler was with the higher spiritual principles and certainly with the ascended host. Thus, they could not form enough of a counterbalance to prevent that swing where the majority of the people actually started supporting Hitler.
You understand that after this shift had happened, regardless of how it was brought about, then the many people that received some spiritual light, their light became a force – an occult, mystical force such as Hitler was aware of – that supported the rise of the Nazi regime. This was not, of course, what we of the ascended host would ideally desire to see happen. We did not desire to see the rise of the Nazi regime as we did not desire to see the rise of the communist regime, but once the shift had happened we had to allow this to happen in order to allow free will to outpicture itself.
Of course, you saw in the very beginning how the Nazi regime seemed to be unstoppable, even after the war had started. It was unstoppable for two reasons. Partly, as we have said before, through the killing and the torture that forced the release of light but also because they were riding the wave of the release of the Holy Spirit through individual people. Now, be careful to recognize – I know your physical bodies have reached their limit but I am not in a physical body so I want to continue and finish my thought – so be careful to recognize that there is no restriction possible of free will and how it outplays itself.
It is only through people in embodiment that the outplaying of free will can be directed in different directions. I wish to make you realize that only when a critical mass of people shifts their awareness, can there be intercession from above that can avoid certain physical calamities. There were not enough people in Germany who shifted their consciousness so that the Second World War and the ultimate military defeat of the Nazi regime could be avoided. This could have happened if enough people, the ones who I am talking about who were the open doors, had shifted the light and their consciousness during the 1930’s. It could have happened almost up to the very point that the war began, but there were not enough that shifted their consciousness.
Why the Cold War did not become hot
Now, what I wish to bring to your attention is that after the Second World War there was, of course, the Cold War where there was the potential between the Soviet Union and the Western Block, primarily the United States and NATO. Why did this not happen? Well, you must first understand why there even was the confrontation between the blocks. This was again because there were certain people, both in the Soviet Union and in the West, who were able to receive light but who supported their respective power structures. It was by no means inevitable that the West would set itself up in such direct confrontation with the Soviet Union. There were other ways that the West could have responded to this situation.
Because there were people in the West, especially in the United States, who had a certain level of spiritual maturity but who were deceived by what we have called the dualistic mindset, the black-and-white thinking, the epic mindset of wanting to fight an epic battle, then there was this confrontation. Of course, there were people with that mindset in the Soviet Union. Tying in to what I said earlier about ascended master students, even among people who were open to ascended master teachings there were some that were so deceived by this epic mindset that they actually directed the light that they received through the Holy spirit through that mindset. They said: “The Soviet Union is wrong, communism is wrong, communism is bad, it must be destroyed” and so forth and so on.
Now comes the subtle point I wish to get across here. It is necessary to recognize that something is not in accordance with the higher principles, the higher potential, but if you go into the black-and-white, dualistic, epic mindset that wants to label it and judge it as wrong, something that must be destroyed, you are not helping the cause of the ascended masters anymore, even if you call yourself an ascended master student. My beloved, we had to give a teaching through a previous dispensation that was deliberately designed for the epic mindset because we saw that it was actually necessary to divert the attention of many spiritual students so that they would decree for the dissolution of the Soviet Union rather than go out and seek to fight it with physical means.
Do you see this, beloved? You might ponder this concept honestly and ask for your own inner direction to see what I am saying. You will not manifest the golden age by destroying anything, even if it is out of alignment with the vision and the principles for the golden age. You will manifest the golden age by instead of seeking to destroy, you seek to transcend and you seek to help other people transcend instead of labeling and judging them as being subhuman or as being expendable for the cause.
Seeing other people as subhumans
How many people in the United States of America looked at the Russian people not as human beings as themselves but as some kind of non-human? If they had to be killed by the millions in order to destroy communism and the Evil Empire, then that was acceptable to them. Well, as I said it was never acceptable to me, as it was, of course, never acceptable to me that many among the Soviet Leaders and even many of the Russian people looked the same way upon people in the West that they were expendable for the glorious cause of spreading world communism around the world.
Do you see that this mindset cannot bring the golden age? It does not matter whether you define the most sophisticated religion, philosophy, civilization and governmental apparatus ever seen on this planet, you will not manifest the golden age by seeking to make that apparatus destroy all others, destroy diversity. The point of this discourse is simply this: If you wish to be part of the Golden Age of saint Germain, if you wish to be among the forerunners of it, you need to look at this mindset.
Why do you label other people as being subhumans or being expendable? Because you’re in the mindset of judging according to the standard defined by the fallen mindset. You do not see that regardless of the outer bodies and whether they look different from you, regardless of the outer personalities that come from culture and upbringing; in the heart all people share a universal bond, a universal bond. This universal bond in the heart can cause people to unite while they still allow their individual, regional, cultural and natural expressions to flourish.
When you see beyond the material and see the immaterial bond between all people, you are not threatened by other material expressions being different from your own. You rejoice in diversity. If you see something that is not the highest potential, then you do not go in and judge and beat people over the head and try to make them feel fearful. You inspire them. You inspire by embodying the principles that you see, by expressing them, by being the light in action, by being your I AM Presence in action, as Sanat Kumara so eloquently explained.
This is how you be a forerunner for the Golden Age of Saint Germain. It might be helpful for you to let go of the mindset that wants to label anything as wrong. Look at yourselves and how you have been brought up in almost any society to have this standard of right and wrong. Instead, transcend it and see that you do not actually improve things by saying: “This is wrong, this needs to be destroyed.” You improve things by acknowledging the higher vision and saying: “How can we transcend the old? How can we help others transcend the old? How can we all do what is more than we did before?”
Thus, I seal you in my heart—for now.
