ANGELS - ANGELIC HOST- ELEMENTALS
Excerpts from the Law of Life Book I & II by A.D.K. Luk, published in 1959
INTRODUCTION
It is essential that students realize that there is a conscious Being back of any intelligent activity, whether it is a metaphysical aspect of spirit or any virtue or action of the seven rays. The spirit or divine qualities are sustained and directed by intelligent Beings of the Legion of Light.
The Seven Elohim build the form of the planets. They represent the mental activity or radiation. The Seven Archangels represent and supply the spiritual feeling activity or radiation. The Beings of the elements prepared the planet for habitation. After this came the Angelic Host whose service is to radiate their qualities to mankind coming to inhabit the planet. The Angelic Host are taken to a planet by the Archangels before it is inhabited by the race.
The Legions of Light, in a broad sense, include all Beings of Light - the Ascended Masters, Cosmic Beings, Angelic Devas, Divine Beings, Seraphim, Cherubim, Angelic Host and Beings of the Elements. In a specific sense a Legion can be all those serving with or under the direction of some Great Being.
The purpose of being for each Lifestream is to gain control and mastery of the four elements (earth, air, fire and water) through the expansion of the Flame in the Heart and expand the Creator's kingdom, eventually becoming a Cosmic Being.
SEVEN MIGHTY ELOHIM
“The Seven Mighty Elohim direct and operate the creative energy of a universe. The energy used on a planet and its mankind comes from the Central Sun through the Sun of the system and then through the Seven Elohim where it is diversified. The seven rays of Light are directed by these great Beings. The Seven Elohim are the conductors of the seven activities of the Godhead through the seven rays. They represent the seven attributes of form to the planet. A tiny flame from each of their lifestreams is anchored in the forehead of each individual embodying on earth. This is known as the Sevenfold Flame and comes through the intellect to assist in holding a balance and fulfilling the divine plan in the outer world.“
ARCHANGELS
Archangels come from the Central Sun. They are Beings who serve in Cosmic capacity. They direct Legions of Angels and yet have a work of their own. The Archangels are the embodiment of some particular virtue. The seven principal feelings required for mastery are represented by the Seven Archangels. Each of the Seven Archangels represents one of the seven great rays of creative power. Each Archangel has a Twin Ray. The Archangels were ignored by mankind for some time, especially Faith, Hope and Charity. The Cosmic Beings of Faith, Hope, and Charity have anchored a Flame of their qualities around the heart of every human being, which radiate through the feelings. Faith (blue), Hope (gold) and Charity (pink) represent the action of the Three-fold Flame in the Earth and in the heart of each human being..
Archangel Michael is the Archangel of Protection and Faith. He and his twin ray, Archangel Faith represent the First Ray. He is the Director of the Angelic Kingdom and has the greatest legions of Angels of all the Archangels. He offered to give protection to all taking embodiment on this planet and all other planets in this system until all are ascended and have returned home. He is also known as the Angel of Deliverance because he frees lifestreams from human creation with his Sword of Blue Flame and whatever action of Light is required. Archangel Michael came forth in 1938 and started his service for America. Prior to this time, his most recent service had been in Europe.
Zadkiel the Archangel of Invocation is of the Seventh Ray. He guards the powers of invocation. This is his service to life. His focus is in the etheric realm. His color is royal purple and he uses the amethyst jewel that is a condensation of the violet ray. His Twin Ray's name is Archangel Amethyst. She is the intelligence in the Transmuting Violet Flame.
ANGELS
Angels, Cherubim, Seraphim, Angel Devas and Archangels make up the Angelic Host. They have names. They are Beings with feelings and have a purpose in life. As they serve silently they give of their life-qualified energies. They radiate some particular quality. Angels are Beings created by Archangels and Ascended and Cosmic Beings to assist their cosmic activities and service to mankind and the Earth. The Angels know only perfection and service of love. They guard and direct energy set into action by the Masters. Angels are real and can be tangible although their bodies are not physical but composed of Light.
In the Golden Ages Angels were seen by and associated with mankind, as were the Elementals. That is natural and the right condition for man's habitation on Earth (on planets) and it must come again. As there are some Elementals, there are some Angels who come into embodiment through the natural means of birth. They are wholly pure and perfect Beings. They grow in size and capacity through service to which they are assigned, and through love from those whom they serve, whether ascended or un-ascended. They have golden light-colored hair and are extremely beautiful. In nature they are one-pointed Beings of one particular virtue — one quality or activity, while man is twelve-fold in nature.
Angels are impregnated with a certain quality in the great spheres or auras of Ascended Masters and Divine Beings and then just radiate that to wherever they are sent. They do not labor. They just shine. Angels are sent to serve mankind and must obey. Angels grow and develop mainly through radiation. They learn control of energy.
Angels are primarily protectors. Their response or action is in connection with the emotional world of mankind, while the Elementals respond to thought formed by the mind. They can become Cherubim, Seraphim, Archangels and Great Beings. There are countless numbers of Angels who serve on inner levels and never contact the world of form. There are Angels of Light, Divine Love, Peace, Healing, Wisdom, Freedom, Victory, Music, Purity, Joy, Justice, Mercy, Obedience, Wealth, Angels of the Flame, Angels of the Three-fold Flame, Angels of the Violet Flame, Blue Flame, Pink Flame, and each specific Flame, Angels of White Fire, Angels of Blue Lightning, Angels of the Flaming Sword and so on.
CHERUBIM AND SERAPHIM
Cherubim are larger in size than Angels. Their nature is to absorb the virtues of whatever realm they go to, or from the presence of Divine Beings. Their main service is to guard energy. They stand guard and protect large streams of energy drawn by Ascended and Cosmic Beings, and radiate their qualities. They serve mostly at the inner levels and not as much with mankind. However, this action has somewhat changed within the past several years. They may go into the radiation of any of the Temples in any of the seven spheres or go within the belt around the Sun, there to be imbued with God qualities and then bring that virtue and radiate it outward. They are also part of the court of Great Beings as they move through the universe.
Seraphim are large in stature, from six to fourteen feet tall, very slight of form, and have great strength. They come from the Heart of God, the Central Sun, as do the Cherubim. They move in V-formation in groups of seven. The seraphim are the guardians of the energies of Great Beings in Their cosmic creation. They have only in recent years come into the atmosphere of Earth to serve.
ELEMENTALS
Life has provided a planet of four elements. Earth represents the density, the physical; water represents the emotional body; air your freedom; fire the power of purification and immortality. Water is the greater part of earth as the emotional body is of your energy.
The four elements are inhabited by Elementals that act only in divine love in their natural state. All intelligence in substance is vowed to obey the commands of the individualized beings of God who say "I AM", beings with the immortal Three-Fold Flame in their hearts. That is how creation takes place, though the same action is how imperfection and destruction can be manifested.
You have an atomic structure that is what some call the sub-conscious. It is the seat of all habits. A Body Elemental is assigned to each Lifestream and also a Ministering Angel. These same beings stay with the individual through all embodiments. Up until the time the Christ Self takes charge of the body, the Body Elemental is in control. It makes the baby body stretch its arms and legs and move about for physical development. It governs the function of the body. Also it is the nature of the child to copy- copy action, mannerisms, desires, etc. of adults, because that is the natural action of the Body Elemental. The Body Elemental and the elementals comprising the body obey the commands of the individual, and that becomes their action.
Habits are established by your attention on the appearance world, by accepting it. There would be no problem if it were not for the misuse of attention. Habit is accumulated energy charged with a given desire. The Elementals form the mental part of the habit. They obey the commands of the individual, conscious or unconscious, and that becomes their action; that is what makes habits so potent. The thought form, the Elemental, can become very powerful depending how much destructive feelings are poured into it. The function of the Violet Consuming Flame is to rid the emotional and mental body of these destructive habits. Think of them as destructive if they are not in harmony with the divine plan.
BEINGS OF NATURE
Beings of the elements are the working intelligence in nature. They produce the vegetation, bloom and crops. They range in size from about one-fourth inch to seventy or eighty or more feet.
We have the four elements of nature-namely earth, water, air and fire. A Cosmic Being represents each of these. Each of these four elements is inhabited by Beings. Some are called Nature Spirits. The gnomes, elves, and brownies are of the earth element. The undines are of the water element. The sylphs and fairies are of the air element. The salamanders are of the fire elements. They do creative work each in their own element. They are the workers of nature. Originally they did only constructive work, but as their duty is to obey the commands of individuals they have been forced to do the will of man of which much is destructive and imperfect. Their nature is to mimic or out-picture that which they are. They are so weighed down with the discordant qualities of mankind that causes the destructive action on their part as storms, hurricanes, cyclones, volcanic activities and the like.
