Now, Maria was going on a long road trip with her parents. It was
summertime, and they had decided to go to the Grand Canyon, a long
drive into the wilderness! Maria was getting very sleepy in the
back seat as she was looking at all of the red desert rocks around
her. She started nodding off as the car traveled down the winding
road. Before Maria even realized it, she was in a deep sleep and
Archangel Michael came to see her.

“Hail
Archangel Michael! I am so happy to see you. I'm going to visit the
Grand Canyon with my parents. I have never been there before. It's
really exciting.”
“Maria,”
said Archangel Michael, “would you like to fly with me while
you sleep?” I would like to show you my retreat in Canada.
It's called the Temple of Faith.”
“I would love to!” Maria replied.

And
so as Maria's little body was traveling in the car with her parents
to the Grand Canyon, Archangel Michael took her by the hand, and they
flew off together to Banff National Park and to the retreat just over
Lake Louise. The waters were so turquoise blue. They were truly amazing.
Maria watched as legions of angels would come flying in and out of
the giant rock.
“What are they all doing?” asked Maria.
“Well, the angels gather here from all over the world to be
strengthened and to enjoy the beautiful flame of my retreat,”
said Archangel Michael. “This retreat has been here for a very
long time and it anchors the light of all of the archangels.”
“How many archangels are there?” asked Maria.

Archangel
Michael smiled. “There are many, many archangels Maria, and
there are seven that directly work with planet Earth. You can call
to them. I serve with my beloved Faith on the blue ray of God's
will.
“Archangel Jophiel and Christine serve on the yellow ray of
God's wisdom and illumination. Their retreat has been over the Great
Wall of China since the first golden ages, inspiring the divine
culture that prevailed in China's ancient civilizations, when God
thought through the people. The name Jophiel means 'beauty of God,'
and their retreat is the splendor of illumination's Christed might!

“They release through the world mighty currents of the diamond-shining
mind of God, to consume the density and opacity of the human consciousness.
Archangel Jophiel once made a most encouraging statement. He said
that even a single mind transformed by the mind of Christ becomes
a catalyst for the quickening of the minds of the entire population
of the planet. That is what a Christ or Buddha incarnate can do!”

“That
is amazing and so encouraging,” said Maria.
“Yes, it truly is,” said Archangel Michael. “Now
Archangel Chamuel and Charity focus God's love and their retreat
is over the Great Arch of Saint Louis. It is called the Temple of
the Crystal Pink Flame. The arcing of the arch focuses the love
of twin flames. Charity was mentioned in the Bible when Saint Paul
wrote, 'The greatest of these is Charity.' Charity fosters love.
Charity is also a Cosmic Being who works with the archeia Charity.
Likewise, the cosmic beings Faith and Hope work through my beloved
twin flame and the beloved archeia Hope. Love is the cohesive power
of the universe. It is the 'glue' that holds everything together.
It is the key to each one's ascension in the light.”

“The
name Chamuel means, 'He who seeks God.' Archangel Chamuel asked us
to invite them into our home. They said they would help with difficult
family situations, or whatever is most burdensome to the heart. He
even said he could help students of the ascended masters find jobs
or even parking spaces! He said that he would do anything we ask,
so long as it is lawful in the sight of God. His favorite mantra is,
'In the name I AM THAT I AM, in the name Archangel Chamuel, be gone
forces of anti-love!'
“Charity is the boundlessness of God's love. When the flame
of God's love is intensified, it becomes the action of the ruby ray
that binds the angels who rebel against God with cords of love. God's
love keeps mankind separated until they are perfected in love. Archangel
Chamuel and Charity seek to help the poor, the homeless, and all who
suffer under their karma and under the tyranny of the fallen ones.
The altar in the Temple of the Crystal Pink Flame is dedicated to
the flow of life from God to man as a flow of creativity and generosity
of heart. This flame anchored upon the North American continent has
inspired the American people to have concern for the world and for
humanity.”
“I
can't wait to tell my mom about the parking angels,” said Maria.
“Sometimes she gets stressed out looking for a place to park.”
Archangel Michael smiled and continued. “Archangel Gabriel and
Hope focus hope and purity from their retreat, that has been over
what is now Northern California since the ancient days of Lemuria.
The light from the retreat radiates a concentrated and pristine pattern
of purity over what was the entire continent of Mu. It still covers
a large area, from the Eldorado National Forest near Sacramento all
the way up to Mount Shasta. You can read many ascended master adventures
that happened in Mount Shasta in the book Unveiled Mysteries by Godfre
Ray King. The name Gabriel means, 'God is my strength.'”

“I remember when we met Archangel Gabriel with Serapis Bey
at Luxor,” Maria said, “and also in the retreat of Jesus
over the Holy Land. He was the angel who rolled away the stone!”
“Yes,” said Archangel Michael. “Hope is the comfort
of God's illumination. It is the yellow plume of the threefold flame.
Do you remember when the Bible says that hope springs eternal? The
flame of Hope is the flame of God that springs forth eternally in
our hearts as cosmic purpose.

“Hope tells us that when the desiring for God is so strong that
we do not allow ourselves to misqualify light, then we shall know
the all-power in heaven and earth, and spiritual empowerment directly
from our Mighty I AM Presence. Hope is an activating fire. When people
know there is hope, they galvanize their forces, they move together
determined that because there is hope, there is opportunity. As the
sun shines through a window with hope each morning to waken the eyes
of God's children, so does hope enter the heart that they might leap
into action to pierce the night of death, depression, disintegration
and all mortality. Hope tells us to hope in all things!”
“I hope I can have a good future,” said Maria.
“That is the spirit of Hope,” said Archangel Michael
as he continued. “Archangel Raphael and Mother Mary also focus
the flame of purity and the immaculate concept for the healing of
souls. They especially help expecting parents and unborn children,
from their retreat over Fatima, in Portugal. Fatima is where Mother
Mary appeared to three children, and gave the Fatima prophecies.”

“I
didn't know Mother Mary was an archangel,” said Maria.
“She is actually an archeia,” said Archangel Michael.
“That is the feminine name of the archangels, and she is even
more than that. We call her the Queen of the Angels and the Queen
of Heaven for all of her service to life over the eons of time.”
“Was Mother Mary an archeia when she was the mother of Jesus?”
Maria asked, as she pronounced the word for the first time.
“Yes,” said Archangel Michael. “She had three
embodiments on earth. She was a priestess in a holy healing temple
on Atlantis. Then she was the Mother of King David, and this prepared
her to be the Mother of David again, when his soul reincarnated
in his final embodiment as Jesus.”
Maria opened her eyes very wide. “Are you saying Jesus had
more than one lifetime?”

“Yes,” said Archangel Michael. “And you can find
many of the stories of his past lives in the Old Testament—like
Abel and Joshua and Elisha and King David. All of these lifetimes
prepared Jesus' soul to become the utmost demonstration of the Christ
to all people. In his final life on earth, Jesus' example is the most
glorious gift to mankind, as he proved the victory of life over death,
and the ascension in the light. ”
Maria smiled. “That's why I love him so much!'
“Yes,” said Archangel Michael, “and we do too. And
this is why he was given the very special assignment and heavenly
title and office to be our Lord and Savior.”
“What does the name Raphael mean?” asked Maria.
“It means 'God has healed,'” said Archangel Michael, “and
that is exactly what Mother Mary and Raphael will do, especially when
people pray the rosary. The rosary is very powerful, as those prayers
rise up to Mother Mary like a bouquet of roses that she uses to help
heal the planet in preparation for the golden age.”
“I understand,” said Maria. “Are there any more
archangels?”
“Yes,” said Archangel Michael.
“Archangel Uriel and Aurora focus ministration and service,
peace and judgment of all that is not of the light, from their retreat
over Southern Poland.”
“I don't understand,” Maria asked. “How can peace
and judgment be the same?”

“Archangel Uriel explained that in order to have peace, the
archangels have to make war for the binding of the fallen angels.
They also embody peace and brotherhood and minister to all life. Archangel
Uriel described peace as a two-edged sword dividing the real from
the unreal and binding the elements of war.
“I don't understand how you can have war and peace at the
same time,” said Maria.

“Peace ultimately brings an end to war and to the warring in
our members,” explained Archangel Michael. “The judgment
of God is the peace that passeth understanding, as the Bible tells
us. The name Uriel means 'fire of God,' and also means, 'God is my
light!' The fire of judgment brings resolution as it consumes all
that is not of the light. Judgment is the dividing of the way that
brings ultimate peace. It is a sword that binds the elements of war
within us. The action of judgment takes place wherever there has been
a war against God in the matter universe.
“Archangel Uriel always reminds us to give the mantra, 'Peace
Be Still and know that I AM God!'”
“Next is Archangel Zadkiel and Holy Amethyst who focus the violet
flame from the Temple of Purification with their seven temples over
the Island of Cuba. The judgment of God that Archangel Uriel brings
is followed up by the violet flame of freedom and transmutation and
forgiveness. In fact, the two flames work hand in hand because sins
can be forgiven when they are forsaken. Judgment separates light from
darkness, and then the violet flame consumes by free will all that
is darkness so that we can have a fresh new start. This is why the
Bible tells us that though our sins be as scarlet, God will make them
white as snow.”

Maria
remembered a cartoon she had seen of God separating the light from
the darkness, like the laundry. Archangel Michael smiled. “It's
a lot like that!” he said. “The Divine Mother in all
of us who is one with the Father, is always cleaning and reorganizing
to make life better. She is very practical. So you see, each of
the Archangels and their divine complements has a retreat, and then
we all gather at my Temple of Faith and Protection over Lake Louise
together.”
“Last but not least, we have Archangel Uzziel who focuses
the secret rays of God. His divine complement is the Messenger of
Music. Uzziel's name means 'strength of God,' and he and his twin
flame serve on the ray of integration, integrating all of the rays
and chakras of God into one seamless garment. Archangel Uzziel explained
that he helps souls transition from the seven outer rays of God
into the five secret rays of God in the core of the I AM Presence.
Archangel Uzziel also carries the everlasting gospel for the integration
in God of all of the world religions, and for the reuniting of the
paths of the Christ and the Buddha East and West.”
“Where
is Archangel Uzziel's retreat?” Maria asked.
“That is a good question,” said Archangel Michael. “Archangel
Uzziel's dwelling place on earth is in the secret chamber of the
heart of those who prepare their temple for him and for his beloved
through Cosmic Portals.”

“I
have another question,” asked Maria. “What does the
name Michael mean?”
Archangel Michael smiled. “It means, 'who is like God.' I AM
very honored to have that name, and to represent Alpha and Omega with
my beloved Faith, wherever I AM called,” he said.
Maria couldn't believe how beautiful Archangel Michael's retreat was.
“I AM the Prince of the Archangels,” said Michael with
divine pride and joy. “So my temple reflects the kingship of
God whom I serve. Once upon a time, my retreat was physical, but helas!
It had to be removed to the etheric plane during the battles with
the fallen angels on Lemuria. See the four entrances marking the twelve,
three, six and nine o'clock lines. They represent the four quadrants
of fire, air, water and earth, which correspond to the etheric, mental,
emotional and physical dimensions of life.”
“I
have four planes too in my etheric, mental, emotional and physical
bodies!” exclaimed Maria.
“That is correct,” said Archangel Michael. “Now
each entrance to my temple has a forty-foot golden door approached
by forty-nine steps. I chose to precipitate the power of the seven-times-seven.
Seven rays in the seven planes of existence that bridge heaven and
earth.”
“Seven planes?” questioned Maria. “I thought there
were four.”
“Well there are four on earth,” said Archangel Michael.
“Then, there are three in heaven that correspond to the Christ
Self, the Mighty I AM Presence and the Causal Body rainbow rays.”
Maria was admiring the blue sapphires adorning the golden doors, under
the golden dome in a radial pattern. She especially loved the beautiful
gardens, fountains and white marble benches surrounding the temple.
In fact, some of them were congruent to the physical plane on the
pathway surrounding Lake Louise.
The altar in the center of the retreat was shaped like a pyramid
of white and blue diamonds that ranged in color from deep sapphire
blue to a light pastel baby blue. From the gardens, Maria could
see the concentric rings where thousands of angels gathered.

“Some
from unascended mankind come to our retreat,” said Archangel
Michael, “to recharge and repolarize their lifestreams with
the flame of Faith in God's Will. We also invite angels and elementals
to come and recharge. Then, these ones go forth in formation from
our retreat to renew their service to life, to protect the children
and to remove evil spirits and discarnates on the astral plane who
would attempt to interfere with the fulfillment of God's plan for
the earth.”
Maria could
hear a beautiful hymn playing in the background. That is the Soldiers
Chorus that Charles Gounod wrote,” said Archeia Faith. “It
is the music of our retreat. When you hear it, you know that the
blue flame angels are with you, forever defending your Christ Self
and your soul, forever helping you come home to God. This was the
vow we made before God to be the defender of the Christ in his children
forever.”
“Is
that why people give the prayer,' Saint Michael the Archangel, defend
us in Armageddon?'” Maria asked.
“Yes,”
said Archeai Faith, “I AM the defender of the faith of every
man, woman and child on this planet and I bow to the light of Christ
within them. When they give that prayer, we come forth with our
many angels, and we cut free the youth and the lightbearers from
those nefarious forces who prowl about the world seeking the ruin
of souls, and to derail them from their divine path home to the
ascension.”

Maria
waved at the angels flying off in formation midst the cirrus clouds
in the deep blue sky. “What a heavenly place,” she said
as she picked some plump, dark blue juniper berries that were growing
on bushes around Lake Louise and that tasted so fresh.
“It's
time to go back to your body now,” Archangel Michael gently
reminded. “Your parents have almost arrived at the Grand Canyon
entrance, and I will be there with you to make sure you don't fall
in!”
Maria,
laughed. “Thank you, Archangel Michael, I look forward to seeing
you again soon. You're my very best friend, and it was so nice to
meet you Archeia Faith.”
“We
love you very much, Maria. Have a good time camping now.”

“I
will,” said Maria. “We're even going to take a mule ride
down the canyon.”
“Then
I will place my Presence before you and behind you and above you and
beneath you if you call to me,” said Archangel Michael.
“That
sounds like a plan,” said Maria. “Thank you, and see you
again soon!”
And
just as she was awakening, Maria heard the song:
Michael, Michael, Prince of the Archangels,
From the grateful hearts of all do songs of praise arise
For thy Heavenly Presence
All on Earth adore thee
God from the Sun and all the name implies!.
