The path of sweet surrender is the path of highest
love of God. When you enter the heart of the most gracious One, either through the heart of Jesus or another
beloved one of heaven, you receive greater access to
those cosmic currents of love-wisdom that will lead to
your enlightenment as well as to the merging, truly, of
your heart and being with the heart of God.
The path of the ruby ray is one that all bodhisattvas understand and which the saints have entered
into fully. For having had their hearts pierced,
allowing the rushing forth of love, they know with a
deep knowingness this holy oneness. When love is
accelerated to such an extent that your heart is verily
consumed, then the heart of God may beat where
yours once was. This is the love of every ascended
being and angel. And if they have a desire, it is this: to
simply be love—pure, unadulterated love to all life.
