If you truly desire God’s will in your life, what is it
that you would surrender this day? What is it that you
would decry of your former self that yet abides outside
the hallowed circle of the heart’s center of oneness with
God’s will? And what is it that you would bring instead
to the altar as an offering to bestow to the Godhead, as
well as a sacrifice for all life that is in need of the
Father’s instrument, who you are?
You must bring the instrument of a clean and
clear vessel of selfhood wed to holy purpose, stripped
of the accoutrements of that former existence that
allowed within you an impure stream of thought and
carnal consciousness, of duality in the ego self. You
must bring an attuned instrument, refined by the fire of
transmutation, wherein as you give the violet-flame
decrees, you see the shedding of layers of the onion
skin of the not-self and the glazing upon the diamond
of your reality new layers of crystal perfection born of
meditation upon pure love.
