Course XLVII - Teaching 44: The Heart of the Divine Mother (February 6th, 1960)

The Ordained Sons –and all Sons of Cafh– have to surrender totally their hearts to the Divine Mother, or rather, the heart of the Son has to be the Heart of the Divine Mother.
Over the summit of the spiritual life one finds always the surrender of one intimate feeling and love; and a human heart offered to the Divine becomes a Divine heart.
The hearts of the Sons have to be heavenly hearts of the Divine Mother. From the hearts of the Sons, She has to radiate love all over Humanity.
How to avoid that these are not imagination figures or intellectual explanations? How to do?: giving every moment of our life, being our hearts the Divine Mother’s heart.
How many complex things, how many disappointments, and how many different things this human heart of ours possesses!
Every time it beats –and it beats continuously– is as if it heralded a new form of feeling or expression; or as if it trembled by passion, or were in pain by sloth, or fell asleep by oblivion of our holy duties and responsibilities. But it is the Divine Mother’s heart that expresses Her love without a becoming. We may think that this is the Divine Mother’s Will because it does not beat always in the same way and it is not always the same expression of silence, patience and routine; apparently this is the trial and destiny, and the participation of the Ordained Son in the desperate hearts of the world.
But I do not believe that this is so, because always we permit our personality and the world to accede and penetrate there, and past and future to take their place there, when there just the Eternity should exist and nothing more.
We can reach this perfect rhythm, this divine silence, this immutable routine, these patience overcoming death, feelings, and any outer things if we observe and are very alert; rather, the heavenly heart of the Ordained Son, I mean, that of the Divine Mother, is wrapped by a totally spiritual-divine aura, and the latter, that covers the Divine Mother’s Heart cannot permit nothing or none to enter there, but, is all this really true?
The Ordained Son gets an outer self-control, an admirable and divine control over all; he is an observant in his life, and disciplined every act; his surrender is every day and night, but, what is there behind this thick veil of his heart? This heart is surrendered, but in the bottom there is blood and loneliness there; but this blessed blood, entirely light-blue, is entirely light-blue or is there something of passion and desire, or is there something of past life covering this blood, or are there disturbing dreams of the future, when nothing can enter there, with the exception of the Mother’s Divine Eye? Because this is the admirable mystery of the soul in contact with the Divine Mother, this is the sublime realization of the Vow of Silence: soul and Divine Love, soul and the Divine Mother.
But in spite of so admirable secret, the poor superiors and spiritual directors, because of their habit, have something of that which occurs in that heart: a blush when they read a letter, or an overly deep emotion in their contact with persons that they left behind, which can be detected by the clever eye of the Spiritual Director; these are silent storms in the soul, which none sees when our personality collides with the personality of another person.
There are numberless details that permit to discover that a heart is not totally surrendered, or that a soul has given itself totally, but hiding there a very little part, and even that this little part; part, this deep and inner remnant has to be totally surrendered and offered to the Divine Mother’s love, and then we can say that our heart is the heavenly heart of the Divine Mother, which has transcended and nothing or nobody has to do with human things.
This heart is made by human beats of the past and future, and of pain, hopes, desires, love, and all that constitutes life and makes life beautiful, but this was the offering that She requested and that we have given, and that sometimes it is as if a light shone that is not the Divine Mother’s light, an incandescent light without darkness, change, intensity or depression.
One’s work has to be intense, complete and continues, and our heart shall be totally the Divine Mother’s heart.
As I said, none can enter there; one’s eye may see certain things, but it is the soul alone that makes the work in contact with the Divine Mother. We gave all, and this work is made by the Community as a whole through Vows, offering, and advice of the Superiors, but this last work is individual. The soul has to surrender by itself; this is a little personal phase and a divine heritage of life; because those things that the soul keeps in the heart (memory of a good work, sacrifice of a life, or sacrifice of an affection) are not the divine part, but the last part that has to be surrendered to the Divine, and so the Divine can have a total expression without figures, human words or experiences.
There is not any living experience but Eternity in the spiritual life and in the realization of the soul with the Divine Mother; there is no past or time to come, but duration; there is no change or succession, but eternal and continuous expansion. This is what we have to offer to the Divine Mother as last expression of our love to Her.
This is the mystery of our silent life, which has to be realized within: offering of time, life, and of what we are, were and can become.
Daughters of mine, there is an expression that shall give you the pattern and shall tell you if your heart is transformed into the heavenly heart of the Divine Mother, and at this moment when all of you forget your own personalities and shall be able to feel totally this permanence of past and time through those souls that take part in the work that they have to realize.
The realization of the soul with the Divine Mother is so perfect and divine that when a person has surrendered all, he does not stop loving, feeling and suffering, but he does not feels all this, but feels this for others.
When we remember our past and pains, we feel sad and we weep, but when we feel content with ourselves, if we feel sad thinking of what we did or gave, this is so because we are ever looking at our human heart. But when we feel all these emotions and thoughts reflected on us, and our things do not produce in us any feeling, but indifference, them we shall have the patter that our heart is that of the Divine Mother.
Our heart does not work any more around our emotions and viewpoints, but is working for others and reflecting the problem of others; it is a divine reflector that is alight and focuses the problems of Humanity’s heart. And then the Son opens his heavenly heart, offers it, and gives it to Humanity.
A Daughter asked about the Vow of Union. This is the Vow of Union!: the last, sublime and divine Vow, a surrender of this self-feeling and self-thinking, something that still expresses my own personality. As soon as a soul (man or woman, Son or Daughter) reaches this moment of self-oblivion, this permanent state of consciousness, then this person does not recalls his past, his moving affections are indifferent, and is self-detached, because he does not remember his own personality. Then, at this moment, the Divine Wedding with the Divine Mother is held, which is when we surrender our heart to Her, and She surrender Her heart to us, and we become priests. A priest is the one that feels for the Humanity. May we be entitled to call ourselves Saviors of the Humanity when we did not realize this work in ourselves, if our duty is to surrender ourselves totally when we see the souls?
How harmful are in the world all those priests that have kept all for themselves and did not take this last Vow of Union and Offering. They became priests but they reflect only their own personalities; if something affects them, they give this to the souls; this is the prayer that they give. Therefore they do not fulfill his divine mission, because the true priesthood of the soul is a pure self-surrender; you cannot realize anything when you keep something personal; but when nothing bothers our hearts, and no shadow blurs the Divine Mother’s heart, then one transmits Heavenly Light, Divine Light.
When shall the hour of one’s wedding with the Divine Mother? It will come, and we should not remain expecting. It has to be today, Sons and Daughters, at this moment, if you are able to give your hearts, to discard thoughts and emotions, and to transmute all in the living experience of the entire Humanity.
This is the mystery of love, priesthood, and future Union in the Heavenly Heart of the Divine Mother.
And nothing is greater. This is the greatest thing. All the rest is currents going to and from like the sea, in successive nights and days; the only truth is not Vow, offering and life, but the intimate and secret offering of the soul: that of the Divine Mother’s heart.
This lasts just a moment, Daughters and Sons; the knife has to be very sharp and the cut has to be skin deep; one’s hand should not tremble, and one’s mind should be void; then all is made. A little of blood, a little trembling and a tear, and the soul is already dead; it does not exist any more; and every one of us became the Heavenly Heart of the Divine Mother.
