The cosmic light substance which we cover over everything in existence in
our decrees is an ascended master light substance and of a different grade
than that which was used to convert the world to a human one ages ago.

Who would dare to call the ascended masters or the human beings
"temporary"? The forms around us exist because we made them OR because they
were created to serve as tools in man's growth and progression.

If there is a "being" within, then that is what guides it. If the "being"
is angelic, then it performs in accordance with those laws. If the "being"
is an actual evolving life in our chain, then it lives along the ideals of
that chain.

You skipped a lot of the stuff regarding angels.

Therefore every ancient philosophy and religion will be found AT
SOURCE to teach the identical fact that behind all manifestation
is the ONE, THE PRE-EXISTING.

The way I figure it, we are still involved with the success of the third
round. The third round is our example in how to complete this round. The
third round was ruled by Venus and so Venus, while not the Kumara of the
race or the round, is a fascinating energy for us to interact with.

Right now, in the fifth race, that would be the ascended masters and the
beings which we are - human.

This is our human creation which we are gradually acclamating to the
ascended master light substance which comes through us.

Are these comments to your satisfaction?
