Chapter 58
Beloved Jesus and Kuthumi - December 31, 1983

     O eternal Light, we come! For we are the Law of the One.

     Sharing the office of the World Teacher, of Lord Maitreya, we do hold the balance from time to time as the Alpha-to-Omega. Serving, therefore, as the Giver and the Receiver, alternating in the mighty rhythm of Life, we portray the balanced manifestation of the heavens and the earth - the knowledge of Matter, the understanding of Spirit; the Alpha's descent, the Omega rising; the Master, the disciple; the Guru, the chela; and the wholeness of the divine polarity to be outpictured between yourself and the beloved one who is your Guru.

     In the cradle of life, in the very alchemy of the soul's experiment in the laboratory of being, welcome to our hearts, O diligent ones! Do be seated in our love.

     Jesus and Kuthumi. From not so many circles of devotees do we hear our names linked together in prayer. We are grateful, for this affirmation of our being confirms our witness and service as World Teachers. To be known as Teacher, rather than saviour (or even rabbi or guru or master) gives to us the entrance truly of those who come but to teach.

     The offering of our teaching is the giving of our gift of Self and Selfhood. All that we know and are has come from Above - and also from Below in the sweet flowers of the field and the outpicturing of the stars. All that we are is all that we teach and may impart. And as we, too, empty our chalice to give of the teaching that I AM - Elohim - so we are also filled with the teaching of our Teachers, entrusted to us until our own disciples may be brought to the level of our table, sharing with us the Christ and the Christ consciousness, able to receive from the Source whence we derive our own offering.

     We are here, therefore, to assure the students of our Ascended Master University that you will, therefore, according to the great Law of the Circle, always receive in return and multiplied that which you have laid upon the altar, that which you have given specifically to our hearts as sponsors of this quarter as well as to the Almighty and the Universal One.

     We come to assure you that every prayer and thought and feeling, every heart's desire and effort is rewarded exactly by the power of light and the magnetism with which you enfire that prayer and that desire. Thus, the very life and life-force that you can bring to bear in the communication with heaven will accord to you a return, and that also multiplied by our hearts.

     As practice makes perfect, the most important instruction we can give to you is this: do not leave off your striving, your studies or your pursuit, your love-endowed decrees - dynamic in the Word. Do not leave off the search, thinking that because now you have reached a level of initiation, you have found the All.

     There are many doors which you must pass through, and many keys that you must earn the right to be given and to use until one day you may find that the master key is yours because you yourself have mastered your own life and therefore wrought the key from your own heart fire.

     To be given the key to one or another retreat of the Brother-hood is to be given the formula for entering in to that ascended master's consciousness. This formula may not come to you unless you yourself have in some way formed and formulated that molecule of light, that mathematical formula that equates in the negative polarity with the positive polarity of Spirit.

     When the pupil is ready, the Teacher appears! When there is in your heart a certain fire, and you see Him then face-to-face, and you say, "At last, you have come!" it is not really such a surprise, for, you see, we could only come into your life by the corresponding presence in you of the Disciplined One who magnetizes our love.

     When you come to understand the meaning of our Word, you will see that it is possible to discover by holy prayer, by a fervent reaching to the heart of the Central Sun, that counterpart of Elohim or archangels that you might carry as a locket in your own heart. You can discover the matrix to be the counterpart of the Great Divine Director. And you can become such a ministering servant, endowed with the Holy Spirit, that people will feel our presence as the universal Christ even when you enter a room.

     See how it is necessary for the soul to be humble enough to desire to be the mirror of God on earth rather than to forge a separate identity and to be praised for that ingenuity. Your individuality is composed of many freewill choices to fill in on earth your selection of a vast design of your own Godhood. The random motion of the disciplined electron teaches always, by sign and symbol, the nature of freedom and free will, operative within the confines of a known formula - even though it may not be known by the observer.

     Thus, beloved, there are infinite possibilities for the individualization of the God flame when that one stands beneath the Sun in his zenith, directly under the I AM Presence, and therefore without shadow, in the purity of perfection's divine flow:

     Here I AM!

     I AM Omega in the earth.

     I AM Alpha in the heavens.

     I AM Being.

     I AM Consciousness.

     I AM Identity.

     I AM the One,

     And I AM the twain.

     And I AM the All-in-all!

     I AM the sacred fire breath.

     I AM the heartbeat of God and of his Cosmos.

     I AM a soul swimming in the sea of Life.

     I have direction -

     I move by the stars!

     I understand the magnetism of stellar bodies.

     I AM caught up in the LORD's Spirit.

     I AM found one and in that Spirit in the LORD's day.

     I AM in the love of the Father,

     And the Father with me is the love of the Son.

     The Son in my heart is the true presence of

the Holy Spirit, and his Spirit does enlighten me.

     I AM in the heart of the Mother,

     And the heart of the Mother is my own.

     I AM a soul born to be free!

     I AM a pillar of living fire!

     I AM now in this hour in the heart of the bird,

     And I AM truly in the heart of the Sun -

the great Great Central Sun behind the sun.

     These things I know, for I AM WHO I AM.

     I stand upon the rock of my own Christ Self.

     I see my God face-to-face!

     I AM in the spherical being of the Divine Monad, and I move in the earth as a spirit gathering more of the eternal Spirit unto itself.

     I AM the instrument of God's all-consuming fire,

     And I AM the consuming of world hatred where I AM.

     I AM the filling of the hungry, the healing of the brokenhearted. As I AM clothed upon with His raiment, so I AM the supplier of every need.

     God in me is the Doer, and I AM caught up in his doings.

     In his comings and in his goings,

     I AM the One and the Law of the One operative by Love.

     Sealed in the chalice, I become the chalice. I become the bread and the wine. And my LORD does give of me, as holy communion, saints unto the saints. The Alpha, the Omega that I AM THAT I AM is given for the life of all.

     I AM in Christ and Christ in me.

     I AM Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending of my journey in time and space.

     God in me is the formula for my return, my pathway, my initiations, my transfiguration - even unto the crucifixion, even unto the resurrection and the ascension to eternal Life.

     God has ordained my descent and he has ordained my ascent. Therefore I stand in the earth, one with the World Teachers, and I offer this my pledge to be the vessel of the Holy Spirit, to be the ministering servant - drop by drop to share the blood of Christ and the crystal fire descending, little by little to see the new birth of the Son of God.

     In the name of Helios and Vesta, the Father/Mother of this system of worlds, I serve these evolutions by the path of the World Teachers.

     I serve with Maitreya, Gautama, Sanat Kumara.

     I AM my God in action!

     I AM my Christ in action!

     I AM here and now, God in me, the Victor over Death and Hell! I take my vow before Almighty God in the Temple Beautiful, and I descend once again to the valleys and the cities and the nations and the dominions.

     I go before the LORD to prepare his coming,

     And the LORD goeth before me to show the Way.

     I AM in the heart of the earth!

     I AM in the heart of all who are in need -

all who are poor, all who hunger, all who weep.

     For I AM the light of the Logos,

     And God in me shall fill their cups.

     I bear the pitcher of the LORD.

     I AM one in the Spirit of the Aquarian avatar.

     I AM in the light of the new dispensation.

     I AM that dispensation!

     By the authority of the World Teachers, I serve to set life free - I serve Saint Germain. I AM born free!

     And I will plant my flame in this earth as a flame flower that shall produce after its kind until all the fields of the world's consciousness blossom with the flame flowers of the light of the Buddha and the Christ and the Mother where I AM.

     This earth shall know a better day because I walk in it in this hour. Conscious of my God Self, in the knowledge of who I AM, I plant the seed of Christhood and I keep the Watch.

     I will endure unto the end of the cycles of my personal karma - and of planetary karma.

     I will endure with Kuan Yin!

     I will endure with Mother Mary!

     I will endure with the Christ Self of all!

     And I will receive the crown of Life by the grace of the living Saviour, the Cosmic Christ of all.

     I seal my vow at the altar of the Holy Grail. And I recite it in the hour when some may falter - and perhaps when I may fear or doubt the next step. I will take my vow to the World Teachers, and I will affirm my being and my source as the Central Sun.

     O Great Central Sun, I send the Call!

     I have gone forth to fulfill that vow in the Beginning and I take my vow in the ending for the Return.

     By the light of Omega, I AM made whole!

     And I enter again the initiatic ladder of light.

     O my Father, O my Mother, I AM coming Home.

     Now I shall go forth to work thy works on earth - to be a Christ, to seal in love those in pain and sorrow.

     I will be Thyself here until the hour of thy Call, O God.

     I will hear thy Call!

     Thou hast promised it. And I will answer.

     I AM thy son, and I AM ascending to the One!

     O my Father, O my Mother, I AM coming Home.

     Our gift to you, each disciple of the Word, is this prayer and vow to unlock the door of thine own Selfhood. Each time it is reaffirmed, it will draw again another ring of disciples of the World Teachers. And you will see how the vow taken becomes the magnet of the Central Sun in the heart of community. And you will also see how the vow not taken and the test failed will remove that subject from the very circle of community.

     There is no bond - not of community, not of star systems, not of nations, not of families - without the presence of the commitment of the soul, the dedication of the lifestream - the stream of Life as the crystal cord descending from your I AM Presence.

     When you take the vow, it is the sealing of the matrix, and all of your light does flow through the vow! And all of the intent and the willing and the desiring and the loving and the purpose of your soul moves to fulfill, by the power of your Word, that which is the very depths of your consciousness.

     Therefore, beloved hearts, receive then, O students, the cape of Saint Germain and the mighty star signifying your level of initiation. Angels of the World Teachers, angels of Nada and ministering servants go with you, and with all of you who are our disciples indeed.

     O living flowers, immortelles, we will leave you grow in the earth to show all of the beauty and the wonder of God until the call of Alpha is heard by you and by us, and this lifetime may be rolled up as a scroll. Then we will come, for this is our vow to you: to pluck the flower of your soul for another field of service - service in the LORD and service of greatest need.

     Thus, beloved, may our promise to be there in the hour of transition now take from some of you an inordinate burden as fear of death. And may you understand that our promise is that you shall see us face-to-face and know the entering in to God's kingdom.

     As you sow, so shall you reap. Therefore, may your sowing be that this entering in shall be the everlasting entering of the ascension in the Light. As you send forth light, so shall your harvest be. The things which shall now come to pass in your life are more your option than ours, more your free will than the Father's preordained destiny. It is all up to you, as the Omega, to decide to return to Alpha.

     We have shown the Way. I AM is the Way! And the Way ye know. Enter in to heaven here and now. May your heaven be on earth. May you know the Way, find the Way, lead the Way, and be the Way.

     Children of the Sun, remember always the Law of the One. Remember, you are from the Sun - from above, and not from beneath.¹ Go not after those or imitate those who are from beneath. Their ways are not our ways.² Their ways are the ways of the death of the soul.

     Be free! Be free! Be free! - eternally free, O my blessed.

     Precious love of the heart of Maitreya, in His service we serve you. Come now, disciples of the Word. Let us be up and doing, for the cries of the needy are even at the door.

Volume 26, Number 14, footnote 3. In a dictation given October 15, 1967, God Meru warned that the Dark Cycle of the return of mankind's karma would begin on January 18, 1969, "unless contemporary man within one year shall make some great attempt to harness the forces of heaven." On April 23, 1969 (less than four months after Gautama's petition for a "half a time," announced in this dictation), the Dark Cycle began because of the intransigence of laggard activities in the Middle East. The returning cycles of karma upon the world had to slow down mankind's ability to make more karma and thus check the acceleration of the judgment of men and nations which could otherwise hasten `final ends'. The Dark Cycle is a period when mankind's misqualified energy (i.e., their returning negative karma), held in abeyance for centuries under the great mercy of the Law, is released according to the cycles of the initiations of the solar hierarchies for balance in this time of transition into the Aquarian age. April 23, 1983, will commence the fifteenth year of the Dark Cycle (initiation under the hierarchy of Pisces).

Volume 26, Number 18, footnote 2. carnal mind: the human ego, human will, and human intellect; self-awareness without the Christ; the animal nature of man. As the apostle Paul said, "To be carnally minded is death ... because the carnal mind is enmity against God" (Rom. 8:6, 7; see also Rom. 7:14; I Cor. 3:1-4; 9:11; Heb. 7:16). The mental body was designed to be the chalice of the Mind of God through Christ. When the vanities of worldly wisdom fill the mental body, the carnal mind displaces the Christ image. Until quickened, it remains the vehicle for the carnal mind and is referred to as the `lower' mental body - the lower, limited, self-limiting mortal mind - in contrast to the `higher' mind, or the Mind of Christ. When the full flowering of the Christ consciousness takes place, the lower mental body may become the crystal chalice for its life-giving radiance. Until the soul makes contact with the Mind of Christ ("Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus," Phil. 2:5), it does not have wings of light to fly to the Heart and Mind of God, nor the capacity to pursue the path of discipleship under the Cosmic Christ and the Buddha who is the Lord of the World.

Volume 26, Number 18, footnote 7. Between May 13 and October 13, 1917, during World War I and the fomenting of the Bolshevik Revolution, Our Lady of the Rosary made six appearances to three shepherd children near Fatima, Portugal, urging daily recitation of the rosary, devotion to her Immaculate Heart, and penance. The "miracle of the sun" occurred during her sixth appearance, on October 13. In the midst of heavy rain, an estimated 70,000 people witnessed as the clouds suddenly parted and the sun appeared as a silver disc which began to spin wildly, flashing multicolored streams of light in every direction. Three times it stopped, stood still, and then resumed its whirling before appearing to come crashing toward the earth. Suddenly, the fiery disc halted, hovered for a moment, and then retreated to its place in the heavens. On July 13, 1917, Our Lady warned: "If people do not cease offending God ... another and more terrible war will begin. When you shall see a night illumined by an unknown light, know that this is the great sign from God that the chastisement of the world for its many transgressions is at hand. ..." See Elizabeth Clare Prophet, March 22, 1978, "Good People Must Be Better," on 6-cassette Easter album The Second Coming of Christ I (A7836); lecture also available separately on 2 cassettes (B7836, B7837).

Volume 26, Number 24, footnote 3. Major incidents of group rape: On January 23, 1980, 5 teens attacked a former beauty queen in Holbrook, Massachusetts; On December 30, 1981, an 18-year-old was raped by an estimated 20 young men in the midst of a rhythm-and-blues concert in Chicago, Illinois; On March 6, 1983, in Big Dan's tavern, New Bedford, Massachusetts, a young woman was raped repeatedly on a pool table by 4 men while others stood by cheering; On March 18, 1983, a 12-year-old girl was assaulted by 4 teen-age boys in Colton, California - a 40-year-old retired Air Force master sergeant was charged with joining in the attack; On April 23, 1983, an 18-year-old female army private was kidnapped and raped by members of a rock band after a concert in Ayer, Massachusetts. Special calls need to be made for the binding and the exorcism of the rape entity, the hordes of rape and their legions; for the arresting of the assault of the Mother and her children by embodied and disembodied devils; for the sealing of the place where evil dwells; for the judgment and the casting out of the Watchers and the godless who lust after the light of the children of God; for the seizing by Elohim and the Seven Archangels of the violent ones whose violence issues from a core anger and rebellion against the Woman clothed with the Sun and the rise of the feminine ray of Lemuria in the Aquarian age; and for the binding of all agents of the opposition to the image of God as Mother.

Volume 26, Number 24, footnote 7. The God and Goddess Meru are the Manus (Sanskrit for "progenitors" or "lawgivers") of the sixth root race. Their retreat is located in the etheric plane over Lake Titicaca, on the Peru-Bolivia border. Lord Himalaya is the Manu of the fourth root race, and his retreat, known as the Retreat of the Blue Lotus, is located in the etheric plane over the Himalaya mountain system, which borders the Indian subcontinent. A root race is a group of souls, or a lifewave, who embody together and have a unique archetypal pattern, divine plan, and mission to fulfill. The Manus ensoul the Christic image for the lifewave they sponsor. According to esoteric tradition, there are seven primary groups of souls, i.e., the first to seventh root races. (See H. P. Blavatsky, The Secret Doctrine, vol. II, Theosophical University Press.) In Climb the Highest Mountain by Mark and Elizabeth Prophet (Summit University Press) it is revealed that the first three root races lived in purity and innocence upon earth in three golden ages before the Fall of Adam and Eve. Through obedience to cosmic law and total identification with the Real Self, these three root races won their immortal freedom and ascended from earth. It was during the time of the fourth root race, on the continent of Lemuria, that the allegorical Fall took place under the influence of the fallen angels known as Serpents (because they used the serpentine spinal energies to beguile the soul, or female principle in mankind, as a means of lowering the masculine potential). The fourth, fifth, and sixth root races (the latter not fully descended into physical incarnation) remain in embodiment on earth today. The seventh root race is destined to incarnate on the continent of South America in the Aquarian age under their Manu, the Great Divine Director. See Elizabeth Clare Prophet, April 15, 1979, "The Work of the Manus" (cassette B7926) on The Quest for the Resurrection 6-cassette album.

Volume 26, Number 26, footnote 9. Prior to the Allied victories in 1945 that brought World War II to a close, Prime Minister Winston Churchill, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and Premier Josef Stalin met at Yalta (February 4-11, 1945). The "Big Three" made far-reaching decisions concerning the postwar world. They approved plans for the creation of the United Nations and agreed to carve up Germany into four military zones to be occupied and controlled by the United States, Great Britain, the Soviet Union, and France. In exchange for Stalin's promise to enter the war against Japan, Churchill and Roosevelt agreed to place the Mongolian People's Republic under Soviet protection and cede to the Soviets the Kuril Islands, the southern half of Sakhalin Island, an occupation zone in Korea, and certain rights in Manchuria. Under the terms of the Yalta Pact, Churchill and Roosevelt ultimately gave the Soviets control of Manchuria, paved the way for the Chinese Communists' victory over Chiang Kai-shek, the Chinese Nationalist leader, and opened the door to Communist aggression in Korea. The decisions made at Yalta permitted the Soviet occupation of East Berlin and East Germany, and the creation of the Communist governments in the eastern European countries of Poland, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria. In short, Roosevelt and Churchill entrusted the security of eighty million eastern Europeans and hundreds of millions of Chinese to the Soviet Union, resulting in the murder of millions of freedom-fighters in those countries. In his book FDR: The Other Side of the Coin, Hamilton Fish states that U.S. entry into World War II was initiated by Roosevelt during peace negotiations with Japan, when he circumvented Congress and issued a secret war ultimatum to Emperor Hirohito on November 26, 1941. It demanded that Japan immediately "withdraw all military, naval, air, and police forces from China and Indochina, to support no other government ... in China except Chiang Kai-shek," and, in effect, abrogate Japan's pact with the Axis powers. On the morning of December 7, Japan responded to Roosevelt's threat by bombing the bulk of the U.S. fleet moored at Pearl Harbor, which resulted in the death of 2,280 U.S. military personnel, 68 civilians, and the destruction of 19 naval vessels and 188 aircraft. Fourteen hours before this attack, Roosevelt learned of the planned Japanese invasion but chose to remain silent.

Volume 26, Number 30, footnote 1. On February 26, 1983, the tenth anniversary of Lanello's ascension, he gave a dictation in which he announced: "I desire to release to you from my causal body that measure of fire to cause the increase of self-awareness above and below. ... And I promise you, if you successfully receive this transfer from me this night, you will be uncomfortable until you have adjusted. ... There is no going back. You cannot then enjoy the comfortability of a former sinful state. ... I give you the gift of my heart of a new perception of your God-reality and a new perception of the synthetic self, that you may see what is dispensable and what is indispensable. ..." Lanello then directed legions of his bands to transfer the "nectar of our heart," to be absorbed by the soul and the crown chakra and disseminated through each one's system as a gradual release. "It will require thirty days before you will have a noticing of the full effects of this release. Therefore remember me thirty days hence, for I wish to come for the fixing of the alchemy, that you might gain strength and character at that level of awareness."

Volume 26, Number 35, footnote 1. Kundalini: lit., "coiled-up serpent"; coiled energy in latency at the base-of-the-spine chakra; the seal of the seed atom; negative polarity in Matter of the positive Spirit-fire that descends from the I AM Presence to the heart chakra. When the Kundalini is awakened (through specific yogic techniques, spiritual disciplines, or intense love of God) it begins to ascend the spinal column through the channels of the Ida, Pingala, and Sushumna, penetrating and activating each of the chakras. The initiate who has taken the left-handed path at the Y uses the Kundalini to enhance his adeptship in the black arts. The false guru initiates the unwary in the rites of raising the Kundalini before the rituals of soul purification and transmutation of the chakras have taken place. This can result in insanity, demon possession, or uncontrolled and inordinate sexual desire or a perversion of the Life-force in all the chakras. The One Sent takes his disciples by the hand and leads them gently in the disciplines of self-mastery until they can deal with the great powers conferred by the Goddess Kundalini and use them to bless and heal all life by the release of the sacred fire through all of the chakras - centering in the heart, which in the true initiate becomes the chalice for the Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ. The Kundalini is the Life-force, the Mother energy. When the base chakra and the Kundalini are mastered, they become the vessels for the ascension flame in the one preparing for this initiation.

Volume 26, Number 41, footnote 3. In the service preceding this dictation, the Messenger delivered teaching on ancient planetary records of cataclysm and the judgment of the fallen angels - subconscious memories that have burdened the light-bearers with a "doomsday" consciousness for millions of years, and that are now being intensified in the Dark Cycle in Pisces. She explained that "fear is an ancient enemy of the children of the light" and that "these are the records through which the fallen ones project condemnation and guilt," seeking to "entice, engage, and entwine the light of the light-bearers to their own schemes and devices." The Messenger traced fragments of these ancient events biblically (Gen. 1:1-3; Jer. 4:23-26; Ezek. 28:11-19; Isa. 14:9-11) and cited parallel legends of war and world holocaust in mythology from around the world. " ... Karma, as a record, is the pied piper that leads the entire evolutions of the earth down into the darkness of those records. ... We must go to the core because it is self-repeating - it's the sorcerer's apprentice that has no end until it is challenged by the entire Spirit of the Great White Brotherhood, of which we are a part."

Volume 26, Number 45, footnote 5. The Friday preceding this dictation marked the 66th anniversary of the first appearance of Our Lady of the Rosary near Fátima, Portugal. Between May 13 and October 13, 1917, during World War I and the fomenting of the Bolshevik Revolution, she made six appearances to three shepherd children - Lucia dos Santos, 10, and her cousins Francisco, 9, and Jacinto Marto, 7 - urging daily recitation of the rosary, devotion to her Immaculate Heart, and penance. On her third visit (July 13), she warned: "If people do as I shall ask, many souls will be converted and there will be peace. ... When you shall see a night illumined by an unknown light, know that this is the great sign from God that the chastisement of the world for its many transgressions is at hand. ... To prevent this, I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart and the communion of reparation on the First Saturdays. If my requests are heard, Russia will be converted and there will be peace. If not, she will spread her errors throughout the entire world. ..." A final and secret part of her message was written, sealed, and stored in the archives of the Bishop of Leiria, not to be revealed until 1960; but the Church has never officially released its contents. In June 1929, Mother Mary appeared again to Lucia, announcing that the moment had come for the Holy Father, in union with all the bishops of the world, to consecrate Russia to her Immaculate Heart. Despite Lucia's appeals to Pope Pius XI and XII, the consecration never occurred exactly as the Blessed Virgin had requested. In 1942, Pius XII consecrated the world to the Immaculate Heart and in 1952 wrote an apostolic letter consecrating the Russian people. Although Pope Paul VI renewed the consecration of the world in 1964, he denied Lucia's request for a private audience in 1967. See sermon on the Fátima prophecy by Elizabeth Clare Prophet, March 22, 1978, "Good People Must Be Better," and Mother Mary, "The Consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart," on 6-cassette Easter album The Second Coming of Christ I (A7836); sermon available separately on 2 cassettes (B7836, B7837); dictation (B7838).

Volume 26, Number 46, footnote 1. The World Council of Churches, founded in 1948 to increase Christian unity and representing 400 million believers, has in recent years become increasingly involved in politics and anti-Western, anti-capitalist leftist activities. The council's involvement in politics has been defended by its leaders on the basis that church unity is benefited by resolving economic, racial, and educational problems. Between the years of 1970 and 1982, its Program to Combat Racism (PCR) contributed over $5 million to organizations fighting racial prejudice; almost half of these funds went to guerrilla groups attempting the violent overthrow of white pro-Western governments in southern Africa - including the Soviet-backed MPLA of Angola, the Marxist FRELIMO in Mozambique, and the Russian-supplied/Cuban-trained SWAPO in Namibia. In an expose on the National and World Councils of Churches ("The Gospel According to Whom?" aired January 23, 1983), CBS's "60 Minutes" investigated the N.C.C.'s alleged involvement in Castro and Communist-led activities in Central America and examined the financial support given by Protestant churches to "causes that seem closer to the Soviet-Cuban view of the world" than to that of American churchgoers who unknowingly provide the funds.

Volume 26, Number 46, footnote 2. A Nativity scene of hand-carved, hand-painted hardwood figures (approximately 25" in height) was placed on the altar of the Chapel of the Holy Grail in response to the November 22, 1980 dispensation of Saint Germain: " ... We have selected this very altar of the Holy Grail for the display of the Nativity that shall become a cosmic focus of the birth of Christ to this planetary body. ... We are therefore beholding now the etheric lowering into manifestation of this Nativity ... and now you can feel the light emanations of the hearts of the participants beginning to radiate from this very forcefield. ... Through this focus, beloved hearts, we will establish anew a momentum of the Holy Family, the opportunity of sons and daughters to bring forth the Christed ones. ..." As announced by the messenger, the focus of the Nativity will remain on the altar until the right to life of every child of God is guaranteed under the Constitution of the United States of America. See Pearls of Wisdom, vol. 23, no. 48, p. 333, and vol. 24, no. 1, pp. 13, 15, 16.

Volume 26, Number 50, footnote 9. Between 3:23 and 3:38 a.m. on September 1, 1983, a Soviet fighter plane downed a commercial Korean Air Lines 747 (Flight 007) over the Sea of Japan, killing all 269 on board - among them 63 Americans, including U.S. Representative Larry P. McDonald (D-Ga.). The KAL flight, en route from New York to Seoul, South Korea, apparently strayed hundreds of miles off course and entered Soviet air space, where it was trailed by at least 8 Soviet fighters for more than 2 hours before the attack. In response to what President Reagan called the "Korean-airline massacre," fifteen nations imposed limited boycotts and restrictions on the Soviet national airline Aeroflot; the U.S. reaffirmed a ban on commercial flights into the United States by Aeroflot (previously canceled in 1982 due to Moscow-backed repression in Poland), closed Aeroflot's New York and Washington offices, and forbade U.S. airlines from writing tickets that connect to Aeroflot flights. At the United Nations Security Council, the U.S. drew only a bare minimum of 9 votes in support of a resolution criticizing the USSR and requesting an investigation of the incident - a resolution promptly vetoed by the Russians. The Soviets have attempted to blame the U.S. for the tragedy, charging that the airliner was on a "preplanned" spy mission over the strategically sensitive Kamchatka Peninsula and Sakhalin Island.

Volume 26, Number 50, footnote 10. On September 19, 1983, the Los Angeles Times reported that 7 Soviet-built MIG jet fighters from Afghanistan bombed a Pakistan border town 3 miles northeast of Parachinar. (Parachinar has been a logistics center for Afghan freedom-fighters smuggling supplies over the border.) Since the December 1979 Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, Moscow has effectively enacted a news blackout to conceal a terror campaign against the Afghan population. In December 1982, however, a stream of witnesses - including journalists, doctors, weaponry experts, Afghan victims and eyewitnesses - testified for 3 days in Paris before the Permanent Tribunal of the Peoples (an international war crime judicial organization) at its second session on Afghanistan. Their testimony and evidence included photographs, documents, samples of chemical-seared rock, actual weapons, films and slides of chemical and gas attacks on Afghan farms, reports of over 100 villagers being sealed and deliberately burned to death in an underground irrigation tunnel, pinpoint bombing of hospitals, saturation bombings of civilian targets, the massacre of entire villages, the use of booby-trap mines disguised as toys and household objects (outlawed by a 1981 treaty signed by the Soviets), maimings, electrical-shock tortures, sexual assaults and rape - all intended to terrorize the people into withdrawing support from the resistance fighters or fleeing to Pakistan. In a 33-page verdict, the Tribunal of the Peoples condemned the Soviet Union for violations of the established rules of war, the fundamental rights of the Afghan people, and basic human values.

Chronology of U.S. Marine involvement in Lebanon (August `82 through October `83): August 25, 1982: 800 Marines from 32nd Amphibious Unit arrived at Beirut port, joining French and Italian troops in a multinational peace-keeping mission and specifically to oversee the evacuation of PLO forces. September 10: after evacuation of 8,000 Palestinian guerrillas, Marines left Beirut. September 29: 1,200 Marines returned following the September 16-18 massacre of Palestinian civilians in Beirut refugee camps. September 30: 1 Marine killed, 3 injured while accidentally detonating a bomb. November 11: 1 Marine wounded in a car bomb explosion. March 16, 1983: 5 Marines wounded in first grenade attack on U.S. peacekeepers. April 18: 63 people (including 1 Marine guard and 16 other Americans) killed in bombing of U.S. Embassy in Beirut. May 7-September 6: U.S. Navy and Marine encampments sporadically attacked by Druze and Christian militiamen fighting in the hills (24 wounded, 4 killed). September 8: U.S. frigate Bowen blasted militia artillery positions in response to firing on Marines. September 12: 3 Marines wounded by a rocket attack. September 18: following a shelling attack on Marines and U.S. ambassador's residence, 2 Navy ships retaliated upon Syrian artillery positions.

According to Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger, the mission of the multinational force (joined by the British in February `83) in Lebanon is to "stay until the government of Lebanon achieves sufficient stability to insure an independent, sovereign, unoccupied Lebanon. ... We're working on the diplomatic front to try to get a cease-fire and ... an agreement for the full withdrawal of all foreign forces - Israeli, Syrian, and Palestinian."

Volume 26, Number 54, footnote 7. Rep. John M. Ashbrook (R-Ohio), 53, a staunch conservative and strong supporter of President Reagan's policies, died April 24, 1982, of "massive gastrointestinal bleeding." Ashbrook, who had served over 20 years in the House of Representatives and was in the process of campaigning for a Senatorial seat, was a key member of the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence who worked tirelessly to expose Soviet espionage activities in the U.S. He was a champion of the FBI battle against terrorism and was known for his determination to struggle against seemingly irreversible odds. Rep. Larry P. McDonald (D-Ga.), a 48-year-old physician, who was among the 269 killed in the September 1, 1983 Soviet attack on KAL flight 007 (see Pearls of Wisdom, vol. 26, no. 50, p. 607, n. 9), was first elected to Congress in 1974 and was widely recognized as one of the most conservative anti-Communists in Washington. He founded and headed a private research firm, Western Goals, devoted to halting the spread of Communism, and was elected earlier this year as chairman of the John Birch Society.

Volume 26, Number 54, footnote 14. On April 29, 1973, Nada announced: "The LORD has made known to us His timetable regarding the physical expansion of The Summit Lighthouse activity. ... At the appointed hour when the dust of man's own chaotic and cataclysmic consciousness settles, when the Divine Woman shall have brought forth the Manchild who is to rule all nations with a rod of iron and when the remnant of Her seed shall have put down the dragon with his seed, so then will the sign be given unto the king of Israel, unto the one who holds the key to the incarnation of God upon earth, that the son of promise shall go forth to build the temple for the ark. ... Thus the Lords of Karma have this day instructed the Mother of the Flame to stay the building of the sanctuary until all be fulfilled that is required. ... and the sure sign be seen in the sky and the certain sound be heard in the ear and the vision of the new heaven and the new earth be revealed before the saints" (Pearls of Wisdom, vol. 16, no. 17, pp. 73-76). In this dictation, given 10¹/₂ years later, Kuan Yin is releasing the directive for the building of the temple.

Volume 26, Number 56, footnote 13. On November 20, 1983, the Sunday preceding this dictation, ABC aired The Day After, a widely advertised television drama (written by Edward Hume, produced by Robert Papazian, directed by Nicholas Meyer) graphically depicting the nuclear destruction of Kansas City and its devastating aftermath. The film, which stirred national and international debate, was described by Newsweek (21 November 1983) as "the single biggest mobilizing point for the antinuclear movement" and as a "two-hour commercial for disarmament. ... What most explains the unprecedented controversy surrounding the show is the fact that it both coincides with and reinforces a growing nuclear consciousness. ... an upsurge in belief that nuclear Armageddon may be creeping ever closer." According to ABC officials, The Day After was viewed by an estimated 100 million Americans. The messenger's comment was: "This is a film for and by and on the death entity of the planet, the demons of death - the kind that come and wiggle the skeleton in front of your face, you know, on Halloween - just to be sure that you don't forget that one day `you will die!' The Day After is a last hurrah for the program and platform in defense of death. This is a film in defense of the belief in death on planet Earth, which proposal and platform Jesus Christ resolved 2,000 years ago with his victory over Death and Hell and the mighty power of the resurrection flame. ... We need to realize just how dead-serious is the death entity. It's the most deadly serious entity on the planetary body, and this is its big one-night stand to convince everyone that they're going to die and that death is real." The messengers are staunch proponents of survival and have conducted seminars on total preparedness for cataclysm, economic collapse, or the eventuality of nuclear war. The Royal Teton Ranch is the base provided by Keepers of the Flame for a spiritual retreat and self-sufficient community of devotees prepared to meet the challenges of this century - come what may - physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Members of Church Universal and Triumphant are dedicated to the principles of survival and have vowed to survive. They have a very thorough understanding of the necessities and precautions which must be taken in the face of the uncertainties of world conditions. They are neither escapists nor espousers of a doomsday consciousness. They are simply willing to face realities and to deal with them out of their own self-knowledge and heart-tie to God. They are not moved by The Day After except to keep on doing what they have been doing for 20 years - what the governments of the West have not done for their people and what but a few churches have done: to provide a place of safety for their families and their community and to be ready to face any emergency with calmness and a well-planned and well-rehearsed alternative in the face of life-threatening dangers.

Volume 26, Number 57, footnote 1. As part of the prayer vigil for the Middle East, the messenger led the congregation in the Sacred Ritual for the Creation of the Cloud, invoking "the fiery cloud to consume on contact the cause and core of war, to protect the hosts of the LORD and forces of light, and to seal the Middle East from all intervention of `aliens,' known or unknown ..." The `cloud', as described by Saint Germain, is an "electronic vibratory action of vital, moving, ineffable light" which can be used for the healing of the nations and the soul of a planet, as well as personal illnesses and other conditions. See The Creation of the Cloud by Saint Germain and Meditations on the Alchemy of Constructive Change and the Control of the Aura by Elizabeth Clare Prophet, 2-cassette album A8063; Saint Germain, Intermediate Studies in Alchemy, pp. 38-87, Summit University Press, paperback. You can participate in the ritual of the cloud with Mother and Keepers of the Flame - recorded on 65-minute cassette (45-minute ritual with 20 minutes of supplemental invocations to the beings of the elements) - for the holding of the balance against cataclysmic conditions, the clearing of the economy, protection, healing, and a mighty assistance to loved ones. Send for your copy of Sacred Ritual for the Creation of the Cloud (booklet and cassette).
