Daughters of the Most High God, I speak of the soul, even the soul of Zion. I come to you this day, Wesak 1991, to proclaim the Light, to manifest the Light and to draw your soul into that Light and to seal you.
It is an hour of opportunity. It is the moment of the descent also of Lord Gautama Buddha. Therefore receive me, as I am also the Buddha, and know that I have called you from ancient times to this hour that you might finish that which you have begun.
May you know, then, preeminently the cycles turning and that there is an hour of the Call. There is an hour to set aside the defiance against the LORD God and his Son, [who yet lives] within you and within me. It is the hour, then, to accept full responsibility for thy word and thy work, to have humility to receive and know true forgiveness and the true undoing, line upon line, of that which was wrought in pain and in sorrow.
I have come for the restoration and to redeem every erg of light that you have squandered. I have come as a magnet of the Sun to draw all elements of your being that you have carelessly scattered to the winds back to the vortex of the whirling Sun of Being and the sun of the soul in the seat-of-the-soul chakra.
I am your Jesus. I belong to you, if you will have me, and you belong to me, beloved. And if I have anything to say about it, I say, indeed I would have you! I would have you unto the rose of Sharon of my heart. I would have you unto the Light of my Causal Body. I would wrap you in the swaddling garment of my Mother. I would renew you in the fire of the aura of the Sun, which you have allowed to be stripped from you in the folly of following false teachers.
Yes, my beloved, there is an hour for reconciliation with your God. I come to announce it to you this day. For the meeting of the signs of the heavens and the signs in the earth does therefore open a door that has not been open to you individually and others of that ancient golden-age civilization, 33,000 B.C. It has not been open [to you] since the hour of its decline.
Thus the cycles turn in a wide, wide orb. Begin, then, to imagine and to understand that the wide circling of the cycles of karma, of initiation, of light and light descending all come full circle in this hour of the turning of ages.
Be not deceived by those who deny the law of cycles! For I have written the law of cycles in your inward parts1 and I have written the comings and the goings of your soul into and out of the House of the Father-Mother God. And each time you have gone farther from the center, you have created another wide orb that must be retraced for the return. Even so is the law of the universe and the planets in their courses. So even is the Homecoming of the sons and daughters of God.
Now then, make no mistake: I call you to repentance. It is repentance from the violation of the Law of the One, the crossing of the line of the Law of Love. Where you have sown anything contradictory to Love, may you reap quickly and cast it into the fire as the tares you have sown among the good wheat of your own field of consciousness and the fields of many others.
Watch the thought! Watch the thought! Watch the thought as it does depart from you! Therefore let arrows of the violet flame trace the thoughts that you have sent that have not measured to the level of your own dignity in Christ.
Yes, beloved, watch the feeling! Watch the feeling! Watch the feeling! Let the full momentum of the water of Life flow freely as violet flame to go after and consume all besmirching of the pristine purity of the white snows of the fire of Cosmos.
Let all these things return, and may you bank the fire of the heart that when they return the fire shall consume and you will not be consumed by earlier sowings. Unless you bank the fire of the resurrection in this day and in this hour, what shall you say when you must face the dark night of the soul and the Dark Night of the Spirit, the eclipse of the sun of the Presence?
Where shall you be found, beloved?
Where shall you be found if you have not the fire to greet the fire of Darkness that long ago you did invert from Light itself?
You have sown. This day face the sun and retrace your footsteps back to the center of Being and know that you must harvest as you go. It is a joy and a cause for rejoicing to cast into the sacred fire all that is not worthy of permanence in God.
"This, not that." Thus sort the memories. Thus sort the records and the past, and therefore retain that which is worthy to be made a permanent atom in your being and in the kingdom of God's consciousness.
I am Jesus the Christ. I have been with you far longer than I shall tell this day; for I desire a shortening of the days of the elect2 and surely not to heap upon you that condemnation that comes only from the fallen angels. And I would not have you condemn yourselves for your going out of the way of the path of Life and of Truth and of Love.
Yet, behold, you are weary in your wanderings in the wilderness of Zin!3 Let it be understood, then, that the soul has suffered enough outside of the circle of the Father and the Mother, of the Son and the Holy Spirit. I bid you enter, painful though the process may be - and more painful yet for those souls who desire to accelerate the process of the return.
Yet, as I have taught my Messenger, pain is the other side of bliss. Be willing to push through the pain to transcend the lesser self and to enter in to the bliss of union with my Heart.
Thus is the way made plain. May you know surcease from all that would hinder you and may you not shirk responsibility to challenge the arrogance of the former self, to challenge the adversary, to challenge that which would thwart your new beginnings unto the fulfillment of certain endings that are come.
I desire to find you, ere this year has concluded, surely in the fire - in the fire infolding itself of the resurrection flame. I desire to see you walking the earth in the sense of the dignity of your Christhood. I desire to see you washed clean by the Light, purified by the Refiner's fire.
For who shall stand in the day of the coming of my Messenger?4
Therefore let it be fulfilled and let the ancient prophets come full circle also, to know their redemption and to know that their prophecies are nigh. All things do come full circle and coil into the center.
May you know when you see the Light and the wave of the Central Sun approaching that this is your wave and this is the ship Maitreya that you enter to cross the sea of samsara and to enter new portals of Light unto the Holy City.
I am your Jesus. Will you have me? ["Yes!"]
Yea, Lord Gautama Buddha! Yea, Lord Sanat Kumara! Let us harvest the pearls and the pearls of souls who now may come to the feet of their Holy Christ Self to be wholly washed, to be set on course and to begin a course where there is no turning back, no looking back but building increment by increment up the spinal altar until Light, all Light, does infill this temple!
May you go forth with a sense of zeal to find those who are of my House of the God-Reality! May you go forth with a quickening, with the good news of the Everlasting Gospel that I have preached, that I have demonstrated, which has been outplayed in numerous golden ages past. And you who seek, know you have been a part of [this preaching, this demonstration of the law of Christhood, this outplaying of the Everlasting Gospel] and you will not be satisfied until you awake in the likeness of your Holy Christ Self.
Wield, then, the sword of the Spirit! Bind each and every foe that would separate you from your God! May this be your walk. May you shut out the din and the noise of this world and all of the attention-getting devices of an electronic age that take your heart and your inner ear and your mind from listening to the Great Silence, from entering in to the Great Silence.
Cherish every breath you breathe, the inbreath and the outbreath, even a lifetime in one of these cycles. Cherish the moments for the reconsecration of self, for the atonement; for atonement is a necessary process. By atoning for karma, or sin, you enter that oneness, that "at-one-ment" with your God, and no man shall take thy crown.5 No woman shall take thy crown. No force of Evil shall take thy crown.
Be sealed, then, in the wholeness of your Causal Body. Be one in the Spirit with your twin flame and know that my heart is the open door whereby you shall be protected and preserved for the day and the hour when you are called - called to fulfill your mission, called to make your statement, in your finest hour of the declaration of the Word, when you may stand before the world and witness unto the glory of God that truly has come for your salvation in this age.
May there be a quickening! And may those who are the old souls, the merry old souls, truly be now the ones who shall proclaim the totality of the mission of the Christ as you have heard it today in part, the totality of the oneness and how all are called but few yet choose to be in the heart of the All.6
Let them not be lost who have let go my hand, who once held it, who once knew the fusion to that living Christ. Do not let them go who have once known the flame and allowed it to be extinguished. Go forth with the sacred fire breath to also breathe upon them the word of truth, the encouragement. And pray diligently daily and hourly for those who are continually being tempted aside to destroy mind and body and to be destroyed by fallen ones as their souls perish in hell.7
These are days of accounting and accountability. And the false pastors preach from their pulpits no accountability when I have not preached it! No, never have I said there is not accountability for the misuses of the kingdom of God, which is his vast consciousness!
No, beloved. Let the true Gospel that is everlasting be preached! May you open your mouths! May you receive the fire of the Holy Spirit for the cleansing of the throat chakra as the ancient prophets received it, that you might speak and [speak] only by the Holy Spirit and not by foul spirits.
I say, be cleansed this day! Let them come out! And know that it is time to walk a straight line that others might know the way to go and the way ye know, and it is surely unto the center of your God.
Look neither to the right nor to the left. Know that you can indeed skip steps on that spiral staircase by the acceleration of the mantra, by the Mother within you, by absolute mercy of heart that does forgive and forgive and forgive. And "Let vengeance be mine," saith the LORD.8
So therefore give love and know that you can indeed beat the Fates and your karma! You can transcend! You can go on! You can move and you can defy prophecy and make it fail and collapse before you as the legions of light go marching in.
Yes, "saints of God" I call you, for you have been labeled "sinners" too long. Now fit into the garment of saint and know that it is neither a martyrdom nor a boring experience but the most joyous experience in all eternity to feel the fire of God blazing through you and to know it as the power that can challenge corruption until corruption is consumed by the sacred fire itself.
Would you know the experience of the fire of God, O beloved? ["Yes!"]
Then I tell you to call it forth and to call it forth again and again and again until the full fury of that fire may cleanse you without harming you and you may dispense it and no longer feel helpless before the fallen ones who have misused it.
Yes, with the Seven Archangels at your side, with the full power of the hosts of heaven combined and multiplying the emergent Christ of your soul, you shall go forth and you shall challenge the wolves in sheep's clothing who speak in my name and of me but do not possess my heart; neither are they received in my heart. For they do not give the full truth of Christ that is.
Let them also know that their words that are hollow are heard by Almighty God, and they are rejected and they are sent back and they drop as flat stones to the ground. No mere quoting of scripture can guarantee anyone's salvation!
Therefore, let there be a purging of hearts and let the sword of the living Christ truly cleave the Real from the Unreal! And let that which is true shine forth and let that which is false be made known! And let the people rise up and let the children of God choose the true shepherds, who do bear the standard of the Christ!
And let them also know that this fiat is fulfilled this day by the power of the All-Seeing Eye of God descending. Therefore it does descend! And it is a ray and a lamp unto the feet9 of those who have walked in Darkness and this day have seen the great Light of my coming.10
I have called you. And may you know that it is your turn to call, to call and to call again to me, crying out:
O Jesus, my Lord, receive me as thine own.
I will answer you! I will tutor you! I will chasten you! I will take you firmly and show you the way [in which ye ought] to walk, the way in which ye have not walked in this life.
Yes, I speak to all! Let none feel so smug that they cannot become a child again and learn of me and take those sure and certain footsteps whereby, [having so taken them,] they might later leap and arrive at the gate.
Yes, beloved, this is the hour of the choice. It is the hour! May you choose this day and live forevermore.
I choose to honor now Lord Gautama Buddha, Lord of the World, whose day it is this Wesak 1991. As he does deliver his message now, know that I am also his disciple and the disciple of Maitreya and of Sanat Kumara.
Yes, beloved, there is a lineage11 and I am a part of it. Therefore, receive me even as I have received them. For should I not have received them, I would not be unto you this day the Saviour, even the Lord.
This dictation by Jesus Christ was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood Elizabeth Clare Prophet on Sunday, April 28, 1991, at the Sir Francis Drake Hotel, San Francisco. Prior to the dictation, the Messenger delivered her lecture "The Golden Age of Jesus Christ on Atlantis." Available on audiocassette (163 min., A91074). Jesus' dictation, together with Gautama's, is on audiocassette (94 min., B91076). The lecture and dictations will also be available on videocassette.
By April of 1983 my husband and I had two and a half years of out-island life behind us. We were well established as the medical team for several remote Bahamian settlements.
It had been a terrible week. An entire village had been leveled by fire. The village had housed the labor force for a large government farm. It was home to nearly 5,000 Haitian refugees who, prior to the fire, had very little and now had nothing. To compound the problem, half of them were illegal aliens and had scurried off into the bush to hide, far less concerned about hunger or exposure than about deportation.
We launched a relief effort and spent five days collecting food, clothing, bedding and building supplies for nightly distribution. Many volunteers had come forward to help with the daily collection of relief items, and things were finally quiet at the office. So, I also decided to "hide" for a few hours.
I packed up my snorkeling gear, some cold drinks and the dog and climbed into our old, beat-up ambulance. The radio was about the only thing that worked well on the vehicle and would afford me contact with the office from my favorite section of secluded beach.
I drifted off to sleep as I lay in the shallows of the clear Caribbean enjoying the warmth of the sun and the distant calling of seabirds overhead. As if dreaming, I found myself walking down a long causeway toward a white marble structure that looked like a Greek temple. It was magnificent in its balanced proportions and simplicity of design. Awe and curiosity overrode my normal sense of propriety and I entered the lower level of the building.
I climbed a short staircase to find myself within a large rectangular hall. It had no exterior walls, only well-spaced pillars that supported the massive roof. It was open to the air and the expansive view of the surrounding ocean. I was alone but sensed that something was about to take place.
Since the farm fire, I had been cooking for large groups of people. So I decided that I should probably prepare a meal. I found a small room to the left rear side of the hall. I entered it in search of a kitchen. It was empty. I heard noises behind me and turned to look back into the hall. A procession had started. People were filing into the hall two by two. They were dressed in long white robes topped with royal blue vestments.
As they passed by, some looked at me in a questioning manner as if to inquire as to why I was not participating. I suddenly felt very out of place. I wanted to participate but had no idea what was required of me.
I noticed a man descending a flight of stairs on the opposite side of the hall. He was dressed in iridescent white robes and had on a matching turban. He crossed the procession line to reach me. He took my hands and said gently, "This is your place, but you are not properly prepared. Come with me." He led me back across the procession line and up the open staircase to the roof of the building. He repeated, "This is your place. You may return when you are prepared." I didn't want to leave. I said, "It is so beautiful here - must I go?" He paused for a time in consideration of my question and then replied, "You may stay if you wish, but ..."
As he spoke, I looked at the panoramic view from the roof. The causeway was gone as was the shoreline it once led to. I saw that there was no way to return to the nonexistent beach. I remembered that I had the ambulance and wondered if my husband had tried to reach me by radio. I had left the dog on the beach. A truckload of relief items would soon be at my house for that evening's distribution.
" ... You'll leave obligations that are not fulfilled. Do you want to leave them unfulfilled?" "No," I replied. He seemed pleased with my answer and said, "Fulfill your life's obligations and seek out the true teaching of the Great White Brotherhood. The Brotherhood will prepare you for your return."
I felt a gentle wind and heard a fluttering sound overhead. I awoke on the beach. I looked up to see what I perceived to be several large white seagulls circling above me.
The term "flipped-out" had just taken on new meaning for me. I was indeed "flipped out"! I sat in the sand confused and shaking. I sensed that I had just made some strange life-or-death decision. I finally gained enough composure for the trip home and went on with the events of the day.
The experience haunted me for months. What was this Brotherhood and how would I find their teachings?
As more months passed, it became clear that our time in the islands was drawing to a close. We felt compelled to return to the U.S. We had heard about communities that were preparing for events that we knew were due at the end of the century. It seemed that we should find and join such a community because we understood that it was necessary for the proper ideals of our culture to survive cataclysm as fertile seeds for a new civilization. Having researched the locations of seven communities, we sold our home and returned to the States in June of 1985.
Our motor home was waiting for us in the parking lot of U.S. Customs at Ft. Lauderdale airport. We moved in and started north in search of our new home. It was our intent to visit the seven communities and choose the one that seemed right.
The motor home broke down 156 miles into the trip. We were towed into a repair place, where we sat for weeks waiting for parts. The owners were gracious and made a truck available to us so I could make a weekly trip to town for groceries, laundry and books. On one such excursion, I stopped at a new bookstore where I was immediately attracted to a certain book that had a picture of a beautiful mountain peak on the dust jacket. I picked up the book and read the title: Where the Eagles Gather.
As I did so, I remembered my beach experience and exclaimed out loud, "Those weren't seagulls, they were eagles!" Having attracted the undivided attention of everyone in the store, I blushed, ran to the cash register, paid for the book and dove into the privacy of the borrowed truck.
I sat in the parking lot skimming the pages of the book and found several references to a community that was being built in Montana. Then on one of the pages I came to the words " ... The entire Great White Brotherhood will summon you and draw you for the conclave of light." Tears came to my eyes. I had found the teachings of the Brotherhood and most likely I had found our community!
Since I had been up all night reading, my husband, motivated by my excitement over the matter, placed a call to the Glastonbury office the next morning. He introduced himself and announced that we would like to buy property.
A sweet voice asked if we were members of the Church. He replied, "I'm a Presbyterian and my wife is an Anglican. Is that okay?" There was a long pause before the voice answered, "No." Undaunted, he asked what church we needed to belong to. The voice said, "Church Universal and Triumphant." He said, "That's a lovely name. How do we join that church?"
We soon had our answer and, suffice it to say, our lives rapidly took on a new direction. I would not want to count the tears nor the hours of pain and struggle that I have faced since he asked that question. Nothing about the past six years has been easy, but I don't recall my turbaned friend saying it would be easy. Yet he gave me the desire to endure with his implied promise that if I could "do it right this time" I would someday have a place in a magnificent temple that floats on a crystal sea.
I marvel at the series of events that led me to that book and very often wonder where we would have ended up if I had not found it. I marvel more at the wealth of precious teachings that are available to all who would seek and find.
Truly by God's grace not only have we been given but we have been made guardians of the ultimate treasure of the age. As guardians, we must be ever mindful of our responsibility to support the publication of the Word. The Word is truly the foundation of the future, and we are as bricklayers who must build solidly.
To My Friends of the Ascended Masters:
I would like to take this opportunity to share with you my experience in contacting the Ascended Masters' Teachings. I never consciously went on a spiritual quest as many of you have, but I was fortunate to contact the Masters at an early age without any special effort on my part.
With my family, I attended my first Summit Lighthouse conference in July of 1968, when I was eight years old. All my parents told me was that we were going to Colorado Springs. No one explained what it was about. We just registered at the door of La Tourelle, walked in and sat down in the front row of the chapel. I had no preconceived notions about the Messengers, the Ascended Masters or what was about to happen.
I still have the memory of Mark and Elizabeth Prophet walking out onto the platform. Mark was a large man and his very physique conveyed power. I was in awe of him because of his size and the dignified manner in which he conducted himself. When he gave the invocation to Jesus I felt the presence of my Lord and Saviour as never before. None of the ministers that I had heard preach had conveyed the power and love of Jesus with the authority that Mark Prophet did. I can testify to all who read this that I have had a closer and deeper relationship with Jesus Christ because of the influence and example set by Mark Prophet.
The second most powerful impression I have of Mark is of the strength and character of his voice. This was a man who embodied the Word. At that time I was unaware that he had lived as a master of invocation on Atlantis - in fact, I had never heard of Atlantis or of a master of invocation or of reincarnation - but I was aware that he spoke with authority and I knew in my heart that he spoke the truth.
Mark explained the Chart of the Presence to us and taught on the lost teachings of Jesus Christ. The knowledge he imparted is with me still.
The one thing that puzzled me was when Mark referred to the Master Hercules. My knowledge of Hercules was from the cartoon show I had seen on TV, and I didn't think I wanted to be a part of a church that worshiped cartoon characters. Later that evening in our campground I asked my mother about this and she explained the difference between a cartoon character and an Ascended Master. She resolved the question for me and that was the only time in my life that I doubted the validity of the Ascended Masters.
In our services when we sing "I Shook Lanello's Hand" and rejoice that this Master is so close to us, I am reminded of my first conference when I shook Lanello's hand not once but twice. At the end of the evening, Mark and Elizabeth stood at the door, thanked everyone for coming and shook their hands. My little sister and I thought this was great fun, as no one had ever shaken our hands before. So we went around behind their backs and got in line again.
Mark very formally looked down at me and shook my hand a second time. Mother Elizabeth, however, recognized that we had already been through the line and so instead we received a hug from her and were sent on our way. My sister was so thrilled with that that she got in line two or three more times until Mark finally said, "I have seen you before, young lady."
In this interchange I experienced Mother and Mark's loving understanding and compassion. As I have grown and matured spiritually, I have recognized this loving compassion as the love of the Messengers for the sons and daughters of God and the love of the Guru for the chela.
The first dictation at that conference was actually two dictations back to back - from El Morya and Saint Germain. It has been said that the Master from whom you hear your first dictation retains a special relationship with you for the rest of your life. I can attest to this, as I have felt the presence of El Morya and Saint Germain overshadow my activities in school and at work.
After the conference concluded, we followed the Messengers west and attended the International Resource Conference, which was held in San Francisco, Santa Barbara and Los Angeles on consecutive weekends. I remember Mark presenting colored slides that showed the threefold flame and the seven rays. He was very excited about this new technology that allowed such graphic presentations of the Masters' teachings. At the end of this conference Mark commented to us, "You are having an Ascended Master vacation." Since then all my vacations have been Ascended Master vacations.
Although Mark walked and talked with angels and Masters, he was not apart from us but very present with his chelas. He could communicate with anyone at their level and impart to them the joy of life. At one conference when all the children were upstairs at La Tourelle doing arts and crafts, Mark pushed open the door and peeked around the corner to see what the little ones were doing.
When everyone had spied him he proceeded to enter the room on tiptoe with the largest grin I have ever seen on his face. Mark went around the circle to see what each was making and praised them for their efforts. He showed special interest in what his own children were creating. Although I still remained in awe of him after this episode, I became closer to him and viewed him as my friend.
Another example of Mark's special love for children can be found by reading chapter six of The Lost Teachings of Jesus. I was present when Mark first gave this lecture. In recently rereading this chapter, I was amazed at the way Mark presented this teaching at a level in which anyone, even little children, could understand the Mighty I AM Presence and Holy Christ Self and true meaning of Christhood.
Between 1968 and 1973 my family attended eight or nine conferences in Colorado Springs during summer and Christmas holidays. This is how we spent our vacations. On some of these occasions my dad drove all of us down to Colorado nonstop for thirty-three hours and then drove straight home afterward.
To those who have attacked Church Universal and Triumphant in the media by claiming that our church divides families by taking children from their parents, I can testify that, far from dividing our family, Church Universal and Triumphant has strengthened our family unity and harmony. I am grateful that my father and mother found this organization of the Ascended Masters' Teachings while I was young.
Thanks to the Masters and the Messengers, I was able to avoid many of the problems of my contemporaries during my adolescent years. They gave me strength and courage to abstain from the abuse of my physical and spiritual bodies through sex, drugs and rock music, which have been so prevalent among my generation. Instead of being a time of anguish and rebellion, my teenage years were a period of growth and maturation in a positive, supportive setting. I wish that all young people could have this spiritual experience.
After Mark took his ascension, he gave a dictation as the Master Lanello. He told us that he was used to being on the receiving end of the wireless between heaven and earth. We were also told that since his ascension Lanello had visited the home of every Keeper of the Flame on the mailing list.
Although I had had a sense of loss at his passing, this statement made me realize that Mark Prophet was with us still. In fact, he was more personally with each of us than he could have been while in physical embodiment. For, as you are aware, he is now known as the Ever-Present Guru and is always available to assist us if we simply call to him for his guidance.
