An Experience That Transforms the Soul 23
Today, from the ascended state, Saint Germain is committed to
helping us attain our eternal freedom. Due to his efforts on our
behalf before the courts of heaven, some of the more arduous practices
of the early Christian mystics, especially with regard to the
balancing of karma, have been superseded by the spiritual teachings
and practices he sponsors for our age.
The saints and ascended masters are our immortal teachers
and we can learn from what they experienced when they were on
earth. They are here today, seen and unseen, in our very midst.
And they continue to teach us just as the adepts of ancient times
imparted their teachings—heart-to-heart to a trusted inner circle of
devotees.
