Godfre
Uppstigni meistarinn Godfre var Guy W. Ballard í fyrra lífi, boðberi Saint Germains. Hann kom fram með kenningar Stóra hvíta bræðralagsins, lögmál ÉG ER-nærverunnar og hélt Krists-vitundina í brennidepli fyrir plánetuna uns hann steig upp til himins árið 1939. Eiginkona hans og tvíburalogi var Edna Ballard, nú uppstigni kvenmeistarinn Lótus. Dulnafn Guy Ballards var Godfré Ray King. Hann er nú þekktur sem uppstigni meistarinn Godfre, Guðs-hlýðni, en nemar hans minnast hans enn hlýlega sem „pabbi“.

Godfre endurfæddist sem sonur hins mikla konungs (Saint Germains) sem réði yfir þeirri siðmenningu sem blómstraði þar sem nú er Saharaeyðimörkin fyrir meira en 50.000 árum. Guy, eiginkona hans, Edna Ballard, og sonur þeirra, Donald, endurfæddust sem börn Saint Germains þar.
Inka-siðmenningin
Í bókinni Unveiled Mysteries (Afhjúpaðir leyndardómar) ræðir Saint Germain um Godfre, Lótus og Donald Ballard sem endurholdguðust til að veita aðstoð þegar Inka-siðmenningin náði hámarki sínu. Þau komu til að veita þjónustu sem þörf var fyrir sem börn Inka-stjórnanda, sem hafði mikla hollustu við Uppsprettuna og náði mjög miklum árangri í gegnum þá Uppsprettu: „Hann þekkti og meðtók vitandi vits kraft Hinnar miklu meginsólar.... [Inka-fólkið á þeim tíma] notaði sólina sem tákn guðdómsins. Það hafði raunverulegan, innri skilning og meðtóku fyllingu kraftsins frá Hinni miklu meginsól — sem við köllum Krist í dag.“[1]
Vegna þakklætis síns og kærleiks var Inka-höfðingjanum kennt að skilja og nota hið mikla alheimslögmál. Donald endurfæddist sem sonur hans. Honum voru kennt að stýra ríkisstjórn og guðlegar skyldur stjórnanda. Lótus, dóttur hans, var kennt innra starf og öll lögmál og var vígð hofgyðja í Sólarmusterinu. Godfre var kennt alheimslögmál prestdæmisins og einnig, í leynd, yfirráð yfir herjum.
Eftir tíu ára sérstaka þjálfun í Perú voru þau þrjú send norður til einnar af nýju nýlendunum í Inka-veldinu í þeim tilgangi að hjálpa fólkinu að auka starfsemi sína og örva framfarir. Þau komu til staðarins sem nú er Mitla, í Oaxaca-fylki í Mexíkó. Lótus þjónaði þar sem hofgyðja í meira en fjörutíu ár í því sem var eitt glæsilegasta musteri þess tíma, sem þau reistu undir stjórn eins af hinum miklu uppstignu meisturum Gullnu borgarinnar yfir Saharaeyðimörkinni. Ytri hlutinn var úr gríðarstórum steinum, en sumir þeirra má sjá meðal rústa musterisins í dag.
Síðari endurfæðingar
Meðal annars var han „einn af riddurum hringborðsins“ og „Ríkharður ljónshjarta“ (1157–1199), konungur Englands í fyrri lífum.

Godfre was also embodied as George Washington (1732–1799), first president of the United States.
Guy W. Ballard
The turning point in Godfre’s mission and the key to his victory in his final embodiment occurred as he was walking on Broadway in Los Angeles. At that time, when all seemed to be against him, he suddenly stopped and made a fiat to the dweller-on-the-threshold, the remnant of his own untransmuted human creation: “You have scared me for the last time. You have no power.”
Soon thereafter on Mount Shasta he met the master Saint Germain, who took him into the retreats of the Brotherhood and gave him the training for his world mission. These experiences are recorded in the three books that he subsequently brought forth as an expression of the threefold flame of the master’s consciousness, Unveiled Mysteries (yellow), The Magic Presence (pink) and the The “I AM” Discourses (blue).
Although the requirements for his ascension had been completed several years before he actually ascended, he volunteered to continue in the service of the Brotherhood as their point of contact in the world of form. Through the assistance given him by the Great Divine Director in the Cave of Light, his four lower bodies were aligned and his threefold flame balanced, enabling him to be the channel for many miracles and healings before his ascension. As part of his final service while in embodiment, Godfre took on world karma and expiated it through his physical form, thus sparing humanity great suffering that he himself chose to bear, even as Jesus bore the crucifixion for the sins of mankind.
Lessons from his life
From Godfre, we learn that unfailing obedience to one’s ascended guru and to the Great Law of Life is essential to individual victory and to the completion of the cosmic timetable for the golden age. Each act of disobedience sets back the plans of the Brotherhood for the victory of the planet, a victory for which each person is individually and collectively responsible.
The second great lesson we learn from Godfre is that it is not until we cast down the idol of the human consciousness that we begin the trek up the mountain of our initiations. The rejection of the human ego and consciousness should be made each time it attempts to assert itself. One need only say, “In the name of my mighty I AM Presence, I refuse to accept the tyranny of my human consciousness!” Of other individuals one may say, “In the name of my mighty I AM Presence, I refuse to accept (his or her) human consciousness. Beloved Holy Christ Self, you step forth in your blazing Reality and be the only Presence acting here!”
Godfre won his freedom through obedience to the law of Being. He teaches us to ascend moment by moment by raising our thoughts and feelings, our energies and actions. The ascension is the goal of life not only for the few, but for the many.
