We Do Not Need to Know All of the Conditions of Our Psychology

The goal of life is reunion with God. In the ritual of the ascension is the joining of the soul to the Christ-the union of the soul with the Holy Christ Self and the I AM Presence. The alchemical marriage itself is the dissolving of certain elements of schism in the psyche. Some of these you will never know about because they are not accessible to the outer mind.

It is true that you do not need to know all of the conditions of your psyche in order to be healed. But it is also true that you must know a good part of them in order to see them coming and to understand their manifestation and to douse them with violet flame and then move on. That is why we are learning about how anger works in our lives and what we can do about it.

You are an Ascended-Master God-free being at inner levels. At that point of your inner-level God-Identity, you do not have those pesky little problems in your psychology. Therefore you do have the power to overcome them as they manifest in the human condition here below. Therefore you can say, "In the name of my Mighty I AM Presence, I am greater than these psychological problems! I will douse them with violet flame and I will move on by the grace of God!"

It is a question of the will-the power, wisdom and love that you give to the will of God in your life. You can will your manifestation of perfection in the here and now. But then you have to bring up the rear of the records of past lives for final transmutation. This is the method that is tried and tested.

Sometimes we do the opposite. We do not face our imperfections but we excuse ourselves for our human imperfections. Worst of all we think that we must wait to work through these things until we can truly walk the earth claiming our Christhood, acting the part and ministering to other souls.

The reality is that the Christ is where you are. But we have to do our part. There is a balance. We cannot just wish away our psychology. We must face it and deal with it and yet we cannot be overcome by it.

We can see our faults but not be overcome by them. We are not yet the Christ and yet we can claim the Christ where we are. This is how we develop emotional self mastery.

The heart has its motives but so does the subconscious. We may greatly desire not to be angry and yet we are angry again. What can we do when we see it coming?

Controlling Anger in the Moment

1. First thing is to realize that you are feeling angry. Catch yourself. Recognize it and then button your lips rather than vent the anger.

2. Close your mouth and say nothing. It's better to fume silently than to come out with verbal manifestations that are costly. Your very first goal in life must be to keep under control your emotions, especially the emotion of anger.

When you accomplish that, you will be on your road to self-mastery, your victory and to your ascension. If you don't accomplish this, you may even have to spend time in the astral plane after you pass on and will have to reincarnate.

3. Give yourself to Jesus and implore his intercession. Make up your mind that no matter what it takes, you'll remember every day that you're not going to be angry or express your anger in any way. By the grace of God you will have your victory.

4. Stay centered. Focus on the heart with your decrees and center in your heart.

5. Having first controlled the anger, you must then take other steps. You cannot stay at that level of knowing you have anger but not doing anything about it, because if you stay with this anger churning in a cauldron in your solar plexus then you are practicing black magic against yourself and you will have to deal with that in your own body. Get to the cause and core of the anger and exorcise it.

6. Get to the cause and core of it. Why are you angry? Is it this life? Is it your parents? Is it the job you didn't get? Is it the opportunity lost, the money you squandered? What is going on? Get therapy if necessary.

7. Observe the conditions right before you became angry. Observe the signs of those things that can come upon anyone simply by the condition of the biochemistry of the body. Was it literally something that you ate? Highs or lows in blood sugar can be a big factor. Indulgence in sugar or excessive yin foods can contribute to this. Watch children after a birthday party-upset, irritable, sluggish. Was it that time when you were low in sugar-hypoglycemic reaction in the afternoon to an overindulgence in sugar at noon.

8. Exorcise anger with dynamic decrees. We have to be determined that we are not going to be dominated or controlled by anger that may have been around for hundreds of years.

What Decrees Can Help?

We have named a number of decrees in the last session; calls to Archangel Michael, the decree to arrest the spirals, the violet flame and the calls for forgiveness with the mantras of Kuan Yin. There are other specific decrees that can help us when we want to go deeper.

Count to Nine Decree by the Ascended Master Cuzco

This decree actually protects us against riptides of anger. Cuzco gave us this decree because he saw the day when we would desire with all of our hearts never to be angry again and yet we still would be angry again.

Why are do we get angry again-because we have not resolved all of the issues of our psychology.

The "Count-to-Nine Decree" simply says, "Before you open your mouth and say something you will regret, count to nine." Just button your lips, excuse yourself from the meeting you're in, excuse yourself from wherever you are, go out, get some fresh air, take another look at the situation you're in, get the Holy Spirit in your lungs, establish the peace and do the "Count-to-Nine Decree." Do it three or nine times.

You can circumvent the building you're having a meeting in. You can make calls for all the people involved.

Don't allow yourself to be trounced by the sinister force where you open your mouth before you have established the flame of peace in your world. It's good to do this walking. Do it alone till you get to the place where you are God-centered.

You are steeling your feeling world with this decree. The feeling world will be triggered by the mind that gets agitated. You are sealing your energies. And you are promising Cuzco that you will keep the energy that he gives you through this decree.

We make an awful lot of karma with our mouths, misusing the throat chakra, saying things we would wish we had not said. It's probably the most misused chakra of all of them if you count up how many words you've said negatively, how many things you've said disparagingly or with criticism and so forth.

What works for some people is to do a periodic voice fast-rest your voice and don't talk for a day. Don't talk for a day. Give yourself that discipline. See how much energy you have at the rest of the day that you used to spend on talking.II

Other Decrees for Dealing With Anger

We can also bind the dweller on the threshold of our anger.

Daily decrees to the Elohim Astrea to strip us of the entities of anger. The Astrea decree is a decree of exorcism. It keeps you clear of negative energies.

Jesus said the key to the casting out of entities is to name the entities. That is why he asked the name of the entities that possessed the Gadarene Demoniac. He asked "What is thy name?” They said "Legion, for we are many." The names of the anger entities are Infurio and Riptide. Name them after the preamble to the decree to Astrea.

Use the Violet flame liberally to transmute the karma and get to the cause and core of the record.

Remember to call to Archangel Michael to protect you daily and reinforce your tube of light. Our daily armor must be restored when it is punctured by anger.

Many have found that the Surrender Rosary is another effective tool.

Releasing Anger is a Choice

You are the captain of your ship. You have a choice: At the point of releasing anger, there is a split second when you have the opportunity to decide not to express anger, not to vent it, not to let it go into the physical plane to injure others.

If we do not exercise that choice, we can make tremendous karma. If we choose to control the anger and not vent it, we are blessed. This is one of the greatest liberations that we can know. We are in control of our anger if we want to be. We are in control of our fear if we want to be. We are in control of ourselves if we want to be, if we are determined.

The Word of God lives in you. The Word of God is the fount of your threefold flame. Every day you have to decide, "Am I going to get annoyed with this person or am I going to rejoice that I can send love to that heart by a beam of the ruby ray and consume that substance?"

The Role of the Astral Ka in Releasing Anger at Night

The astral shell, or ka, is the residue of the astral self-even of the unconscious self and the dweller. If you are angry, your astral ka can go out at night and create mayhem. It can do dark deeds in your name.

You must not go out of your body at night in soul travel unless you have inner and outer resolution. Before you even consider whether you will have inner and outer resolution, you must do calls to Archangel Michael and the most powerful beings who give protection to you when you go out in soul travel.

If you do not have resolution, then your astral ka could go out from you and wreak havoc and even commit murder and mayhem in your name-because you have been angry at the level of the desire body and often at the level of the subconscious of the desire body. If you are angry when you lay your head upon your pillow at night, and if you go to sleep and God forbid, you should die in your sleep, you are really in trouble. Your astral ka will become the embodiment of your anger.

This is karma that you are making when you are asleep. You are unawares. You have no knowledge this is happening but your dweller does it. He comes back in the morning. His deed is done. The murder is committed. The horrendous deeds are done, and who pays the price? You do, because it's your dweller and you let that dweller roam free.

Bedtime prayers are important, in our families, or alone, in communion with God. If you can't solve a problem all at once and you do not want to carry it when you travel to the etheric plane at night, what do you do? You call to Archangel Michael to seal your anger, to box it up, literally. Create in your mind a very strong thought form of a blue box. Place it on your treasure map in your bedroom-a nice blue box wrapped in shiny blue metallic paper and tied with a blue ribbon.

Visualize all of the unresolved issues in your world and put them in that blue box. Put the blue box around your subconscious and unconscious as well. Call to the violet flame to transmute your anger.

The Violet Flame to Purify the Desire Body

Our four lower bodies are like horses that we ride. We do not allow them to lead us. We are the drivers. The desire body is a body that we ride. The soul takes dominion. We become aware of impure desire, and we meditate upon God and discover what God's desire is for us.

God's desiring to be himself in all of us is the desire for life to be lived abundantly, joyously and lovingly. When we meditate upon the desire of God, we realize that there is no conflict between our soul and the Spirit of God. Impure desire leads to death and self-annihilation. We don't really want it. It is the not-self, the unreal self. Therefore we invoke the violet flame into the impure desire to transmute its momentum, the cause, effect, record and memory of all previous lifetimes. We invoke the desire of God to come into this temple and transform us.

You may find that the desire of God is so all-consuming that moment by moment, and breath by breath, you have no other desire than to be in God, to do his will, to outpicture his desire. There is no other desire left within you, but to know him.III

Two Kinds of Anger

When you talk to someone, you might arouse anger on two fronts. First the anger of those demons that possess and inhabit the temple of the one you desire to rescue. Second you also contact the resistance of the soul to be awakened.

The soul is saying "Go away, leave me alone. Don't tell me all of this truth. I can't stand to hear it because if I hear it I'll have to do something about it. Let me sleep on." Sleeping that sleep of death--this is where we find the self-induced hypnosis of our people.IV

What can we do? I of mine own self can do nothing. It is the Father that doeth the work. We can pray for them but God is the doer.

For the Love of the Guru

There is another reason to control our anger; for the love of the Masters. We are told that we can even weigh down an ascended master by our actions and attitudes. The messenger gave an example from her life: "As your Guru, I have established a figure-eight flow between us and we are one at the nexus of that figure eight. I don't withhold myself from you. I am open to you, and therefore I allow myself to be vulnerable to you also. When I open myself to people, whether they are of the light or they are of the darkness, I allow whatever they are going to send me to come to me, whether it is anger, whether it is hatred, whether it is jealousy. If I should close my heart, then I could not give of myself to you. When you do not establish resolution in your own world, you cause me to carry your non-resolution in my world."

The messenger took this example from Jesus Christ, Gautama Buddha, Padma Sambhava, Lord Maitreya, Sanat Kumara in all these thousands of years and from Mark Prophet. He never closed the door of his heart. When we close the door of our heart, we are in serious trouble. This is not the way out. The way out is to be wounded, to be pierced, to follow in Jesus' footsteps.

The Sacred Heart of Jesus is Essential to Your Victory

Our Lord Jesus Christ will not fail you. He has never forsaken his mission. Age after age on this planet even in dark ages Jesus kept the flame of the World Savior. We are walking the path of personal Christhood. We must follow in his footsteps and to prove that in this life we also may stand with our Holy Christ Self to overcome the darkness within and without. We can do this by merging with our Holy Christ Self. Our soul can be fused or wed to that Holy Christ Self.

Does this happen automatically? No. It is a goal that we must seek. Nothing can substitute for the fusion of the soul with the Lord, the Holy Christ Self, and with the Lord Jesus Christ himself.

The Sacred Heart of Jesus is essential to our Victory. It is a magnet of the Heart of God that magnetizes all that we need to our own hearts. When you are at peace with your Lord and truly at peace in the very depths of your unconscious being, then Jesus may place his Electronic Presence over you seven days a week.

We have a beautiful ritual and service which we give once a week. It is called Watch with Me Jesus' Vigil of the Hours (the Jesus Watch). and during this service Jesus places his presence over us.

We must strive for this union with the sacred heart of Jesus. Do not let any negative momentum of your past, any shortcoming, any friend or family member, anything that allows you to go here or there to cause you to be divided and conquered in your being.

Do not let the things of the shadowed self take you from the love of the Savior. Every temptation that beset Jesus and Gautama and all saints who have accomplished the goal of the ascension also besets you. Do not be put back but rejoice! Rejoice in all of your goings and comings, whether through the dark night of the soul (of your karma) or the Dark Night of the Spirit. During these dark nights which come to us all, you are in that fusion to the Christ and you receive not once but again and again the crucifixion and the challenging of your office as a son of God.

Do not move from the spot where you stand in defense of the Light! Do not allow yourself to be overcome by a single test that Satan or the seed of Satan may give you. When you fail tests the devils have a heyday and that they consider that you are set far back. They move to make mincemeat of you. As Jesus told Peter, "Satan would have you, to sift you as wheat."V

Daily Recitation of Prayers and Decrees

Deep seated conditions in our psychology such as fear and anger will not go away overnight. We need the sacred heart of Jesus and we need repeated daily prayers and decrees. This is why the saints came apart and gave their daily rituals of prayers and sacrifices.

We give our decrees daily-because each day there is a new release of karma. The repetition is also for the very sake of ritual, for the very sake of the love of Christ.

Ritual is weaving the strong cords round and around and around that pole of being until the Polestar does become a presence so very near to us. "Draw nigh unto me and I will draw nigh unto thee." Daily you draw your I AM Presence close to you in your devotions. The congruency is not difficult, when you do not allow one single entity, one single schism in the psyche to come between you and your God. You do not wait till you are healed of your psychology to seek this union. You allow the union you seek with such fierceness of heart, beloved, to be the healing of that psychology!VI

Bind the Dweller on the Threshold Each Day

The ascended masters love us but they do not indulge us or our not self. They are fierce in challenging us when we allow ourselves to express the not-self. Lanello says, "This cannot go unnoticed. This cannot go without discipline. This deserves the cosmic spanking because all of you know better and all of you are capable of doing better. And therefore when you vent that anger of the dweller on occasion, you must understand, beloved, that you do so knowingly and willingly and that you do so because you have not taken the precautions day by day to gain that mastery over the beast."VII

Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. Each day we put off the old man and put on the new. Each day we draw down more of the Real Self to displace the old man, the not self, the carnal mind. The master Jesus has given us a decree to cast the dweller on the threshold. Understand the tremendous power of the call for the binding of the dweller-on-the-threshold, naming the conditions and going after those conditions. Whether you think they are a part of you or not, simply name them. For if they are not a part of you, and you truly have the mastery over that condition, then you will stand to assist other children of the Light to defeat that dweller.

This call is in your handout. You can give it once a day after the decree to Archangel Michael and followed by some violet flame.VIII

Anger Management

Anger management classes or courses can be helpful in addition to our spiritual work. The term "anger management" refers to a system of psychological therapeutic techniques and exercises by which someone with excessive or uncontrollable anger can control or reduce the triggers, degrees, and effects of an angered emotional state. In some countries, courses in anger management may be mandated by their legal system.

One technique for controlling anger is finding agreement with another person rather than conflict.

The use of deep breathing and meditation can be used as a means of relaxation.

Other interventions include learning empathy, stress management skills, forgiveness, changing how you speak about yourself or others and improving optimism.

As the issue of anger varies from person to person, the treatments are designed to be personal to the individual.IX

Gratitude is the Antidote for Anger

Deep-seated anger can be caused by records of past karma and the psychological condition of the soul. The memory of these may be sealed for lifetimes in subconscious or unconscious levels of your being. But one day the Great Law will require you to deal with them. And your preparation for this test must begin today. Establish a foundation of peace in your body temple through your all-knowing, all-wise and all-loving Higher Self. Express gratitude to God for every simple gift of life. Gratitude is the antidote for anger. He who is grateful is never angry.X

Write a list of things that you are grateful for and see how it opens your heart.
