Now let it be understood that on this day, Americans as a whole have lost the power of the Word. By their hearkening unto the fallen ones, their speech is not the speech of God and their mouths have become the instruments of the fallen ones as they express the rebellion of the fallen ones that is not even their own. Precious ones, it is not even their own! Yet they think it is their own because they rise up in that sense of injustice. I will give you now certain remedies for this manifestation.
Injustice is abroad in the land as a dark and dense manifestation of returning karma. And with the turning of the Dark Cycle next April 23, that manifestation of injustice which is already upon the earth will intensify as a flood rising even to the roofs of the houses, and people will find themselves inundated by the emotional energies and their impact upon society and government of this gross sense of injustice. And of course their sense of injustice is that the lightbearers and those who have attainment ought to give away their attainment and their light. And they think that it is injust that they should be the recipients of their own individual karma, that they should have to work out that karma.
And therefore you see, their rebellion is against Almighty God directly and against his law. They camouflage the rebellion in social causes, rebelling against this and that and this and that, against each other, against the church, against the state. But they are rebels to the core and you see, their rebellion is against the white fire core of being. This energy shortly coming to the fore must be transmuted before it is precipitated, for its precipitation will cause further spiritual and material blindness and the coming to power of those individuals who are in no wise capable of running the affairs of state.
Therefore, I am repeating the call of Ray-O-Light and the legions of fearlessness flame who came at the turn of the year. And now a half turn later I come and I say, Indeed, doubt and fear are your greatest challenge! For doubt and fear are the manifestation of a consciousness of injustice that is based on human curiosity and human questioning. Let us see, then, that the students of the Law concentrate on the transmutation of all misuses of the sacred fire under the hierarchies of Pisces and Virgo. For Virgo is Mother Earth, Opportunity, Justice, my very own beloved keeping the action and the flow of Christ-mastery for you in your own cycle of return to the heart of Omega.
Let it be, then, that you work diligently with the fearlessness flame, that fiery white light tinged in emerald green that will cut through all of the mob consciousness, the mass consciousness, the emotional fervor that the fallen ones attempt to generate among the people. And let your calls be to me and to the Divine Director to lower our momentum of mastery in the third quadrant that is the quadrant of the Mother and that is the quadrant of the hundred-year cycle of America's destiny. Let it also be seen that, in addition to the manifestation of the utter transmutation of this line of the Great Divine Director's mandala, that there is a need for you to clear these lines within and to apply yourselves to the study of what is happening in government.
As I mentioned, when mistakes are made, when there is the slip 'twixt the cup and the lip and the torch is dropped, it is always in a moment, a moment when, by pride or insecurity, harmony is forsaken. And with a sudden thrust of emotional energy that catches all off guard with the opening of the door, then, of the solar plexus, in comes the riptide! And the riptide is a mass energy, and the fallen ones are waiting to project that mass consciousness through those who are near the Mother and the children of the Mother that, in the riptide and in the maelstrom and the havoc that follows, there will be a teetering and a tottering of the soul and of the state.
And all of a sudden the vote goes through! The Federal Reserve is given excessive powers. America is sold away - her technology, her secrets, her grain, her life. In a moment, the signing away of Vietnam, of Cambodia, and what next? In a moment, a moment's decision, millions of lives are committed to death.
Listen to my question: Who decided the death of thousands and thousands of Vietnamese after America pulled out? Who decided the death of a million Cambodians who have been lost in the past year? You say, "The Communists decided their death. They murdered them." I say, nay! Nay, it is the free people! It is the people to whom is passed the torch of initiation. You who were not there keeping the flame. Upon you, America, is the burden of this karma. For you knew the intent of the enemy. You knew the doctrine of the enemy. You knew the avowed doctrine of world take-over and world conquest. And you knew the writing of history - that every nation that has been taken over by Communism has murdered the life, the light of the leaders in government, in the military, and in the professions.
Therefore, who made the decision? According to cosmic law, the people who have the highest level of initiation have a much greater commitment and responsibility. Given two lifestreams, the one with greater attainment makes greater karma for the same mistake. This is the law. To them to whom is given much, much is expected.
But then, who did? Who did make the decision? The American people who have the light? The Christed ones? The children of God? No. The handful of rebels and demonstrators supporting one or two individuals in your government who manipulated these decisions, chief of which is Henry Kissinger. And I repeat the judgment of Archangel Michael! Let it be upon him, and let it be upon this nation, and let it be upon every individual in government who makes the decisions for the lightbearers yet has neither the light nor the authority of the Brotherhood to make such decisions.
What about the people who do not know the law of reincarnation, who have no sense of an afterlife, who know not where the soul departs when the body is no more? For us, we see another day and another opportunity for these souls who have been lost. And many of them, the most beautiful children of light in Russia and in China, have been received into incarnation in this land of America. Many of these are here, and they bring with them a great light of the ages.
We, then, have hope, even after death. But those who do not and who see life as only in this life, more callous are they when they allow the decision to be made for these ones to be abandoned. And so you see, according to their own understanding, they have a greater karma. For for them, in their minds, this is the ultimate death; and still they have no compassion and still there is no fervor. [To be concluded in next week's Pearl of Wisdom.]

SAINT GERMAIN as Roger Bacon (c. 1214-1294), English philosopher and experimental scientist. Bacon belonged to a wealthy family, was educated at Oxford, and later became a Franciscan monk. While living at the monastery in Paris, Roger Bacon began his research of "secret" books and the construction of experimental laboratories. From 1247 to 1257, he devoted himself entirely to an exhaustive investigation of alchemy, optics, and mathematics, as well as a thorough study of languages and astronomy. He once remarked that the zeal with which he pursued his scientific research was talked about everywhere. Due to his vigorous activity and obvious impatience with those who refused to understand his work, Bacon was brought under severe discipline by his Franciscan superiors. He appealed to Pope Clement IV, however, who requested Bacon to inform him of his projects. In a remarkably short time, Roger Bacon produced Opus Majus, Opus Minus, and Opus Tertium - a vast encyclopedia of all the known sciences, including his unique understanding of alchemy and methods of experimental study. Bacon's doctrine embraced the Trinity as the threefold nature of divine revelation: the Word, the works of nature, and the inner illumination of the soul achieved through seven stages of "internal experience." At the same time, he defined three invaluable assists to the interpretation of the message: the mastery of languages, the knowledge of mathematics, moral and spiritual disciplines. Wisdom is fulfilled, however, only through "experimental science," which Bacon describes as application of theory to practical life - useful discoveries and inventions as well as "good works" necessary for the perfection of the soul. He insisted upon the knowledge of linguistics for adequate comprehension of Scripture, wrote a comprehensive Greek grammar, and was relentless in his attack of corrupt translations of the Bible. Bacon's genius lies in his extraordinary ability to correlate science and religion. His unique insight led him to see the magnifying properties of convex lenses, the inherent power in gunpowder, and the possibility of aircraft. Many of Roger Bacon's works were written in a secret cipher. Sometime between 1277 and 1279, Bacon was imprisoned by fellow Franciscans because of "novelties" in his teachings. His condemnation was largely due to his lively critique of theologians and scholars of the day as well as his credulity in matters of alchemy and astrology. His pioneering in the realm of experimental science has won him the title Doctor Mirabilis (Teacher of Wonders).
SAINT GERMAIN as Christopher Columbus, Cristóbal Colón (c. 1451-1506), the discoverer of America aptly named after Saint Christopher, who by legend is pictured carrying the infant Jesus across the waters. His surname means "repopulator." Christopher Columbus was born in Genoa and as a young man studied astronomy, geometry, and cosmography at the University of Pavia. At age fourteen, he was already a skilled seaman. While employed as a mapmaker in Porto Santo in 1479, Columbus was privileged to examine charts of the Portuguese explorers who endeavored to find a sea route to the Orient by sailing southward along the unexplored African seacoast. Some of these documents were at that time a state secret. In addition, he pored over the Book of Marco Polo, the Imago Mundi of Pierre d'Ailly, the logs and records carefully kept by his deceased father-in-law who had served as naval captain under Henry the Navigator. Columbus was often seen engaged in hearty conversation with old seamen and sailors returning from African voyages. Step by step, he conceived the idea that the world is a sphere. His daring proposal for a westerly voyage to the East Indies as finally developed and presented before the courts of Portugal and Spain was supported by theories of geographers, reports of mariners, and actual evidence of unknown civilizations that from time to time washed ashore. Unlike most of the fortune-hunters of the age, seamen and kings alike, Columbus was deeply religious and sought passage by sea to the Orient not only for her wealth but also for the firm establishment of Christianity among the Asiatics. Columbus first presented his carefully charted plans to John II of Portugal who turned the matter over to a body of distinguished scholars. Although they concluded that his proposal was "unrealistic," the king favored the theory and secretly dispatched a caravel of his own. The sailors soon returned, however, disheartened and afraid. When Columbus discovered the treachery he departed for Spain, arriving in 1484 during a fierce war between Christians and Moors. King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella were preoccupied with their military struggle and therefore unable to give due consideration to Columbus' proposals. Year after year he waited, meanwhile taking the issue before Henry VII of England and Charles VIII of France, but to no avail. It was not until January 2, 1492, that the war ended and Columbus received an audience with the queen. The plan was flatly rejected, however, after Columbus impetuously demanded the rank of "Admiral of the Ocean," vice royalty of all lands he found, and ten percent of the precious metals he might discover. On his way out of the country, Columbus went to Luis de Santangel, the king's treasurer, and announced his discovery of the northeasterly trade winds which would safely and surely carry him across the uncharted seas. Santangel then went to Isabella and convinced her of the vast importance of the mission. The queen immediately dispatched a messenger who found Columbus already on the road for France. Isabella met with him and hasty preparations for the voyage began. With eighty-eight skilled, but skeptical sailors and three nearly inadequate ships, Columbus and his crew set sail for the New World the morning of August 3, 1492, after receiving Holy Communion. Long weeks at sea failed to produce sight of the land the admiral had expected (Columbus had correctly defined the shape of the earth but grossly underestimated its size). It was an age of superstition, and common fears included everything from sea monsters to falling off the "edge" of the world. Ascended Master Saint Germain himself has described how he quelled violent mutiny aboard his ships during that first voyage. Finally at ten o'clock the night of October 11, 1492, Christopher Columbus first sighted land, pointing out a dim light ahead. The next morning he landed, richly clad and accompanied by his captains bearing banners of the Green Cross. When they all had "given thanks to God, kneeling upon the shore, and kissed the ground with tears of joy, for the great mercy received," Columbus named the island San Salvador and took solemn possession of it. At the same time, the crew who had shown themselves doubtful and mutinous sought his pardon, weeping and prostrating themselves at his feet. When the natives (called "Indians" because Columbus believed he had reached the East Indies) told him tales of the plentiful gold to be found in neighboring lands, Columbus set sail in search of the treasure and for a fortnight wandered among the lovely islands. It was then that he discovered Cuba, magnetized by the violet-flame focus of Lord Zadkiel's retreat. While further exploring the area on Christmas night, 1492, the Santa Maria drifted into a reef. When the natives of nearby San Domingo came out to rescue the men, Columbus observed their rich ornaments and believed that his search for a land of gold was ended. There he founded his first colony, La Navidad, and built a fort from the remains of the sunken ship, placing its crew of forty-four in charge. On January 4, 1493, Columbus and the remaining men departed for home. Along the way, they encountered a violent storm which quickly subsided after the crew implored the assistance of Mother Mary and drew lots to see who would make a pilgrimage to her shrines. On March 4, the Nina dropped anchor off Palos. Columbus proceeded to Barcelona in a sort of triumphal procession and was received by the king and queen in full court where he related his fantastic story. A second expedition was immediately prepared to secure and extend discoveries already made. The new party set sail on September 28. Upon his return to La Navidad, Columbus found that one third of the 300,000 inhabitants of the island had been killed in struggles between Indians and Spaniards. Columbus restored partial peace with the Indians who had been unjustly treated, rebuilt the fort, and proceeded to explore the islands from Cuba to Jamaica. During this time, however, he became exhausted by the physical and mental strain of his expeditions. In these trying times, he wrote in his journal that he was thirty-three days practically without sleep. Columbus lay ill for five months, during which time he entered into deep communion with God. Thereafter, he was met by a royal commission who acted in harsh judgment of his administration. Columbus, dressed as a Franciscan, was sent home in 1496 but was cordially received by his sovereigns. In 1502 he appealed for a third voyage and was quickly granted support. Returning to La Navidad, he again found that affairs had not prospered well in his absence, and so displeasing were the reports now brought before Ferdinand and Isabella by returning colonists that the king and queen appointed a royal representative to take Columbus' charge. He stood accused of severity, injustice, even of venality and was finally shipped back to Spain, bound in chains as a criminal. In the meantime, however, Queen Isabella had received a heartbroken and indignant letter written by Columbus to an associate, explaining the events in La Navidad in his own terms. Upon counsel with his majesties, the admiral's property and office was restored. During his fourth voyage, Columbus' ships ran aground in a small inlet on the island of Jamaica. Columbus and crew were received with great kindness by the natives, who provided them with food for more than a year while they awaited assistance. After that time, the admiral suffered much from disease and from the lawlessness of his crew, who incited mutiny and alienated the natives, provoking them to withhold customary supplies. Columbus restored their trust by "miraculously" predicting the eclipse of the moon thereby proving his favor with heavenly powers. Upon his safe return to Spain, Columbus was again well received, although his health was rapidly failing. He passed on in May 1506, uttering the words: "Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit."
SAINT GERMAIN as Francis Bacon (1561-1626), Lord Chancellor of England, statesman, essayist, the "father of inductive science." His contemporaries believed that he was the son of Sir Nicholas Bacon, Keeper of the Great Seal of England during the reign of Elizabeth I. In the nineteenth century, however, the complete story of his life began to unfold when the first volumes of the famed "Bacon-Shakespeare controversy" appeared and Francis Bacon emerged as the brilliant author whose sonnets, poems, and plays still remain the most cherished of all English literature. The idea that the "Shakespearean" plays were not the work of William Shakespeare has been the subject of scores of books, first based on the obvious disparity between the magnificent work and the somewhat obscure character of Shakespeare - a common actor with insufficient learning, the son of a small provincial tradesman at Stratford-on-Avon. In contrast, the plays exhibit the genius of one with extensive education in language and literature, thorough knowledge of law, history, and politics, firsthand experience in the high courts of Europe, and unquestioning familiarity with the manners and speech of royalty - requirements so aptly met by LORD Bacon. Following another less speculative method of investigation, literary scholars late in the century discovered within the "Shakespearean" works a strange and secret tragedy - a drama within a drama - written in intricate cipher. Step-by-step, amazed cryptographers deciphered the concealed history of Elizabethan England and with it the true identity of Francis Bacon as the rightful heir to the English throne, the fils naturel of Queen Elizabeth and Lord Leicester. Francis was given over at birth to Sir Nicholas and his Puritan wife Lady Anne, who was present at the royal birth and, it is believed, pleaded for the life of the infant. Elizabeth, the daughter born to Anne Boleyn and Henry VIII, inherited her father's tyrannical nature. Having been rejected as a child, she constantly feared that her subjects privately sought a king in her stead and was always careful, therefore, to maintain absolute dominion over her court, her advisors, even her son. Although later historical documents hint at a secret marriage, such a remark heard by the queen herself often resulted in imprisonment or death. Thus the true account of her reign is revealed perhaps solely in the coded writings of Francis Bacon. His childhood with Nicholas and good Lady Anne was spent happily and at age twelve he entered Cambridge, mysteriously funded by the queen herself. At age fifteen, however, Bacon unexpectedly left the university on a secret mission for the Crown. At this point it is believed that Francis discovered his true identity and was therefore hastily sent abroad by the queen for the purpose of setting him at a comfortable distance to her throne. Nevertheless, he was entrusted with the vital mission of studying the cipher-codes of Europe and developing new formulas for the protection of confidential information in England. Lord Bacon later recorded his understanding of literary science in De Augmentis Scientiarum, the Advancement of Learning, from which early cryptographers derived the formula for his work.
