In search of Saint Germain, legacy and mystery
Years ago, I often watched a now-off TV show called “In Search Of.” The show was hosted by Leonard Nimoy (Star Trek’s legendary Mr. Spock) and its weekly segments explored historically secret accounts of extraordinary individuals and unusual, if not unexplained, phenomena. I personally loved the show, even if its production was sometimes corny and some of the dramatizations were overly stripped back. Nonetheless, it was refreshing, if not quite convincing, in its paranormally active content. Nimoy was a perfect metaphor and voice for our own complexities and skepticism and how we approach that which deviates from our “normal view.”
What did the program “In search of” really ask us? It was always for me at least in search of the truth. One segment that I never really remembered seeing when the series was running was one that chronicled the appearance of the 18th century Comte de Saint Germain or who was then known as the mysterious “Wonder Man of Europe”.
The producers of “In Search Of” did a credible investigative job of trying to correlate the sometimes fascinating and even seemingly implausible accounts of Count St. Germain. The show’s segment revealed the intricacies and ease with which the Earl seemed to move imperviously between the royal courts of Europe while being able to be a benefactor to the poor and needy from his fabulous and almost inexplicable ability to “precipitate” goods for provide services. and dispel poverty.
The Count of Saint Germain was revealed as an almost inexhaustible figure who was a master of diplomacy in working to unite the fractured region of Europe’s old guard and the dwindling influence of the royal houses before the start of the French Revolution. Supreme statesman, confidant of kings and master alchemist, able to lavishly bestow flawless diamond gifts, even storyteller and friend and companion to royal ladies, Saint Germain, however, was an advocate for the advancement of science and technology and he recognized the inherent spiritual progress of man. .
While “In Search Of” raised the question, who was Saint Germain?, it is not impossible to know more precisely, Who is Saint Germain?
During that period of 18th century Europe, Saint Germain barely had the appearance of a man in his forties, although accounts from that period have indicated that he was around for 100 years. Rarely seen eating or dining except for herbs and elixirs, the Earl was also quite capable of simply disappearing, appearing, and seemingly disappearing at will. In short, Saint Germain was not an ordinary man, either by stature or achievement. Saint Germain during his appearances in Europe was already in fact an Ascended Master.
In 1684, after his life in the incarnation of Francis Bacon, the soul known as Saint Germain married his Spiritual Self as a permanent aspect of Divinity in the ritual known as the Ascension. Count Saint Germain, known throughout Europe, had received a “special dispensation” from the lords of light and the cosmic councils to reappear on the stages of earth with his plans to help humanity and form the United States of Europe. .
Saint Germain, although he had “earned” or obtained his freedom from the rebirth rounds, had chosen to come to this earth plan in an apparent physical body, but more accurately, an Ascended Master body to continue to help work with unascended humanity. . that he had started while he was still in incarnations.
Interestingly enough, though not surprisingly for the Ascended Hosts, Saint Germain’s goals in that life were incomplete, even failed. In the Ascended Masters’ efforts to help during the period of the French Revolution and establish a smoother transition from Monarchy to Democracy, they backed Napoleon, only for him to betray them and their causes for freedom.
If constancy can be said to be a trait of an Ascended Master, then we see the hand of Saint Germain, moving from “experiment in Alchemy” in Europe to sponsoring a new opportunity for Universal Freedom in the founding of the United States.
Even before the description of the events in Europe that led to the withdrawal of the Ascended Masters, Saint Germain had already begun to assist in the formation of the colonies that led to the signing of the declaration of independence. In fact, he was the inspiring upstage of one of the original signers of that statement to give an impassioned speech to “sign that document!”
In fact, during the American Revolution we see another facet of the Ascended Masters unfold that is not an anomaly of the Path. The first original President of the United States, George Washington, was often overshadowed and guided by Saint Germain during and in the course of his rise to the position of President of the United States.
Later in the early 1930’s Saint Germain reconnects with this same soul, returns as Guy Ballard and establishes the IAM activity to post and create more conscious contact with the Ascended Master student body and those Masters. Ascended for humanity.
Saint Germain is affectionately known as “Uncle Sam” and the domestic patron of the United States of America. Saint Germain has said that America has an inner destiny to fulfill the highest principles of freedom and in fact “America” represents the formation and gathering of “the I AM Race” (AMERICA), progenitors of the seed of the consciousness I AM, the Universal. Spirit incarnated in the sons and daughters of God. America and Saint Germain, as we would learn, have been inexplicably linked; their dual destinies were forged hundreds even thousands of years before.
