THE TRANSMISSION FLAME ACTIVITY
Hierarchy of this Planet a period of twenty years in which to awaken all the lifestreams embodied on Earth to the necessity of emitting more Light and thus avoid the eventual possibility of the Earth's dissolution.
This ultimatum, as we have seen, brought the Hierarchy to an impasse, and realizing the well-nigh impossibility of bringing a distorted humanity to this desired level, in the allotted time, decided to use means hitherto thought unconventional for the Hierarchy. One of them was the opening of the Masters Retreats to qualified students who would not only be
themselves benefited by the approach, but by using the knowledge thus gained would impart it to others.
This idea of opening the Retreats of the Masters to students, being introduced by the Chohan Morya, was immediately endorsed by the Maha Chohan Who, to amplify the blessings of the Retreats to all mankind, proposed the further idea of drawing the students together through the rhythmic use of their breath-energy, and thus become co-workers with the Masters of Wisdom.
They would do this by gathering together in groups, all over the world, once every month and consciously Inbreath, Absorb, Expand and Project the Radiation which was projected by the Retreat, especially designed for that month. This would create a transmission line, similar to that employed by the radio and television companies, who transmit programs across the face of the globe by means of transmitting stations, which "pick up" the
original beams of energy, revitalize them and direct them onward in their progressive course toward a given goal.
These "stations" were established at central points around the globe and always are at a Masters' Retreat. When a particular Retreat is active and projects its Radiation, as it travels to the "station" nearest to it, it is immediately taken up by the students close to that station, who give it, through their breath, additional impetus in its progress; other
students doing the same thing as it circles, from "station" to "station", around the globe. As an example, let's take "Shamballa" at Long island, as being the Retreat of the month. The first "station" to receive its
Radiation going Eastward, will be the Retreat of Elohim Hercules, at Zurich. The students there will "inbreath, absorb, expand and project" it to the next one which will be the Retreat of "Mighty Victory" at the British Isles; it will be repeated as before and moved to Marseilles Retreat of the Chohan of the Third Ray, Lady Master Rowena: similarly it will proceed to Crete, the Holy Land, Luxor, Madagascar; Ceylon, Kashmir, Darjeeling, Himalaya, Peking, Fujiyama, Suva, Lake Titicaca, Cuba,
Yucatan, Royal Teton, Lake Louise, and come back to its original source at Shamballa, at Long Island, N.Y., to be repeated again and again for thirty minutes, starting at nine o'clock p.m. Eastern Standard Time. The official date set for this on each month is the fifteenth day of the month,
provided it is Saturday. If not, the immediate next Saturday at the same hour.

The above is as the Transmission Flame Activity is operating at present. At the beginning it was a little slower but nevertheless, it was so active and encouraging as to bring the following words of comment to its
initiator, the Maha Chohan:
"---The reception of this idea, and its subsequent development with the tremendous benefits to the race, to the atmosphere of Earth and to the three evolutions progressing upon the Planet, is a marvelous proof to the Cosmic Law that mankind is interested in helping itself, that among
incarnate lifestreams are many who will cooperate when the outer consciousness is given opportunity to do so."
Thus the Transmission Flame Activity had its inception and development and thus the Retreats of the Masters of Light and Wisdom, not only became known to students but were actively opened to anyone who cared to partake
in the Transmission Activity, visit them in his finer bodies, while in sleep, and actually become a coworker with the Spiritual Hierarchy, in the redemption of the Earth.
THE RETREATS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
A Retreat is a concentrated focus of energy, made up of the qualities and energies of every member who has ever been a part of it. The purpose of its maintaining it open to the outer consciousness of mankind, is mainly to magnetize, maintain, and project the positive consciousness of God's Will in the atmosphere of Earth. Also, to neutralize the negative
acceptance of every possible distortion of Truth which finds its origin in the minds of men, and which is presented as God's Will upon the world. Each Retreat has its own special sphere of influence which becomes a spiritual aura, made up of the qualities and energies of every member who has ever been a part of it. The members of these Retreats, who have
Ascended from within them into the Eternal Light, have left the ladders made up of Their Own prayers, disciplines, abstinences and illumination behind them, as a heritage, so that every succeeding member had the strength of Their victory as an added impetus to his own Light. Here is how the Maha Chohan presents Their function and
energy.("Bulletin", Vol. 3, #4)
"---The Retreats as radiating foci, have been the salvation of mankind1 because They have been the dissolving alchemy that has consumed great quantities of the effluvia of human discord. These spheres of influence, or forcefields, vary in size, according to the number of members who have made the Ascension from them, according to the number and consciousness of those who still serve within the Retreat, the type of service they render, and the length of time they have been established. These Retreats and Sanctuaries were established at strategic points across the surface of the Earth under the direction of the God-Beings Who felt that certain points must have protection and radiation to hold the balance for the entire sphere. At inner levels, many individuals who were interested in mankind's greater good, ofttimes volunteered to take into their bodies a
concentration of a certain ray and then literally dived down into the astral and psychic realms and into physical incarnation and pinned that ray into the Earth through their flesh bodies. Such individuals magnetized these locations in the very first place. Your Beloved Jesus rendered this service many times. He magnetized those places in Jerusalem and Golgotha and Bethany. He also magnetized places through continental Europe; in various places in England and in Asia that have not yet been activated by drawing currents through His Own body and standing in the silence for seven long years until there were literally light plants set into the Earth where His feet stood. Some of these were activated by Himself and Mary later in Jerusalem and Lourdes and many more will be picked up by sensitive lifestreams in this present century and the centuries yet to come.
Sitting one day, some time back and looking at the Beloved Morya's initial endeavor to acquaint mankind with the existence of the Retreats, I came upon the idea of having the student body gather all over the world and, breathing in the Flame of the Quality as the Retreat is opened - feel the pressure - and pull it out as you would pull a tent so to speak, and set it up with the pegs at the far end, and so the students in Asia, Africa, Australia, Continental Europe, the British Isles, and North, South and Central America are now pulling the sphere of influence of each Retreat, securely fastening it in places with the pegs of their energies, and making it world-wide and worldengulfing. Everyone is helping and pulling through concentrated effort and you can see how this activity can readily transform the planet. You can see then how Our hearts thrill with
gratitude and happiness.
Instead of reading and studying the metaphysical and occult literature that deals with activities that have ceased to vibrate through the ethers
hundreds or thousands of years ago, we are asking mankind to participate in the current activities of the day consciously and it is because of your intelligent grasp of the need of the hour and your wholehearted
cooperation with Us that We have come through the veil and met you halfway---."
As concentrated centers of energy, the Retreats are helping mankind to rise to its pre-ordained destiny. Their Members, being highly evolved, can and do magnetize Prime Essence from the Universal which They enliven and ensoul with the radiation and energy of a given God quality and which They have undertaken to transmit to the feeling, mental, etheric and physical bodies of mankind. Just as the sun magnetizes and draws prime energy from the Great Central Sun, the source of all there is in our Universe, and radiates it into life producing energy, light, heat, etc., in the System, so with the Retreats, but to a lesser extent. They draw energy which They radiate into mankind.
Practically every Retreat has a special developed quality which it can radiate in a manner peculiar to itself, but always in accordance with God's Will, as it makes itself known at a certain time. In the Retreat of Liberty, for instance, located in Southern France, we see this amply exemplified. Here is how Its (then) Chohan, Paul the Venetian, in an address He gave to the students of "The Bridge to Freedom", August 15, 1957, presents it.("Bulletin", Vol. 6, #21)
"---Whenever any of the Chohans signifies that there is a chela who is ready to do something unselfishly for the benefit of the masses We,
immediately, open the doors of Our Retreat to such a one, and at once draw the power of the Liberty Flame into the lifestream of such a one to give him assistance.
Thus many good men in your field of inventions, medical activities and ministration through orthodox channels, as well as the great educators and political leaders are at inner levels at night Our guests and the Flame within their hearts is bathed in substance - that substance is provided by a group of Beings belonging to Our Brotherhood. The individual, if he is not cognizant (as you are) of the 'Chateau de Liberte', is brought in his sleep and is usually unconscious when carried by the Angels into the Retreat.
So We have provided for them these lovely couches covered with pink velvet, they are done in the French design with the raised framework scroll at either end. Then these individuals are placed on the couches. Their physical bodies are asleep and the Angels and the Ministering Beings from Our Retreat then direct the Pink Flame into those bodies, into the Flame in their hearts. You can see the Immortal Three-fold Flame in their hearts beginning to expand during his activity. It has to be done very carefully and slowly because We have to return that etheric body into a flesh form that has not made application, you understand, and knows nothing of the use of the Violet Fire. If We expand this Flame too much and try to get It back into the atomic structure (physical body) there would be a tremendous strain on the physical vehicle. We have to very slowly accelerate that Flame and We call the Illuminating Flame through the mind of such a one. Meantime, so intricate and so kindly is the service of the Law that while the Beings are working on the etheric consciousness and expanding the Flame in the heart of the soul who is within the Liberty Chateau; at the same time there are two Beings guarding the physical form of that individual. As there is no time or space and They have an activity which you would call telepathy, They can also see the individuals who are guarding the etheric consciousness and They also begin to expand the Light in the physical form trying to keep it tuned up as much as the inner body is being tuned up in Our Retreat.
It is a wonderful service and then, when the inner body is returned to its "case" in the morning, the atomic structure has been prepared to receive it. If the etheric and inner consciousness is too accelerated and nobody
took care of accelerating the vibratory action of the flesh structure, when the soul came back it would just really burst the atomic structure asunder. It would be very, very painful physically and very distressing to the mind itself---."
At the close of each year (December 31st) a new "thoughtform" is designed by the Sun of our System and is given to the Silent Watcher of our Planet. The Silent Watcher then lowers it into the uplifted consciousness of the Lord of the World, Who, in turn, projects it into the expectant
consciousness of the Great White Brotherhood. From then on, this
thoughtform becomes the collective endeavor to be followed by all members of the Brotherhood for the next twelve months ahead. Since this
thoughtform is not received by the Lord of the World till December 31, He does not design the Pattern of Retreats to be visited for the next year until January 1st. He chooses those Retreats to be the successive steps in the service of the year which will best out-picture the Divine Will in action, through Their particular momentum of Power. The best known Retreats are the following:
The Retreat of Resurrection, in Arabia, with Jesus the Christ and Mother Mary as Hierarchs. It opened Its gates to mankind March 15, 1952.
