Unless indicated otherwise, the following notes are recorded in my
journal in the course of my daily decree services before this local outpost of the Altar of the
Holy Grail, located in my sanctuary, a converted photographic darkroom in the back of our
garage. The Chart of the
Presence hangs over the altar area on the west wall, with the portrait of the Ascended Master
Jesus Christ to the left, and the
portrait of the Ascended Master St. Germain to
the right. Note: Most links require Javascript to be enabled. For additional Footprints

| During the first cycle of
Hail Mary's we are
enveloped in the crystal fire of multiple stars. And you wonder what the value is of embracing the
victory of God's will? One kind of wonder exchanged for another. There is a mountain and a
summit, and it is all enfolded in an aura of enchanting wonder. 12/1/2000 |  |
| If this is the victory of God's
will, I say, bring
on more of that victory! 12/1/2000 |
| The glory of crystal fire
purity ... we are
enfolded by it. 12/1/2000 | |
| In this manner the
characteristics of God's
identify are revealed, one facet at a time. 12/1/2000 |
| Crystal fire all around me,
crystal fire
everywhere within me. 12/1/2000 | |
| We got to spend the entire
Michael session
(45x) enfolded in the most exquisite peace. 12/1/2000 |
| Join the national boycott of
all products made
in China. 12/1/2000 | |
| If every child of God could
stand in that crystal
fire mist, well, there you are. You would have a Golden Age on earth. 12/1/2000 |
| (Referring to the election
recount mess) I
suppose that it is fitting that what should follow Bill Clinton would be chaos. 12/1/2000 | |
| A taste of the life to come.
As we are
enfolded in the light of this service we find our self searching our heart and mind for any
indication of what me might do better today in terms of the activities we will engage
in. 12/1/2000 |
| Response of divine power
on third of ten
tubes of light, and we got to spend the last two-thirds of our 15 minute violet flame session in a
forcefield of complete freedom, and we got to reside in this most blessed forcefield of peace and
crystal clarity during our .30 Solar Ring calls. 12/2/2000 | |
| We have many opportunities
to serve our self-
interests during the course of the day. But there are very few opportunities to take action that can
directly help people of other nations to throw off the chains of totalitarianism. There are very few
opportunities to take action that directly enhances the freedom of our own nation. And there are
very few opportunities to take action that directly effects the survival of the members of our own
Armed Services. Every opportunity to buy or not to buy a product made in Communist China is
such an opportunity. Don't throw that opportunity away. 12/9/2000 |
| I long for the Victory of
God's will in every
atom, cell, and electron of my entire consciousness being and world. 12/9/2000 | |
| It
appears to me that
the portal into the heart is not to be thought of as a three dimensional doorway or opening, but
rather a uniform vibration within the desire nature that is characterized by a longing for the Victory
of God's Will. 12/10/2000 |
| I say this because I can
observe myself
passing through various regions of thought, some of which, because of their dissonant nature,
having the sourness associated with human conflict, signal a clear departure from the divine
modality, causing me to take internal action to raise the thought form of God-Victory, and in that
action observe the fading of that aforementioned sourness, and the increase of the sense of
freedom, and what is most important, a tangible sense of the amplification of the energy of the
heart which now stands out in substantial relief. 12/10/2000 | |
| And for those who are
wondering about this, I
can say that one does not all of sudden wake up one day and find the desire nature reflecting this
divine longing for the victory of God's will. Even when the desire nature is purified to the extent
that this longing can start to take hold, and this happens only after extensive use of the violet flame
over a period of years, there still appears to be quite a long process of learning how to hold that
vibration. Initially, even during our devotional services, when one would expect this to be easy, it
is not easy, given the ingrained habit pattern of allowing the desire nature to change from one point
of focus to another, like a kaleidoscope constantly in motion. This habit pattern must be
overcome. The soul must take control of its desire nature, and learn how to hold that geometry of
longing over measurable lengths of time, from seconds, to minutes, to hours, to days, to weeks, to
months, to years, and finally for all eternity. 12/10/2000 |
| The feedback one receives
in response to this
effort, even at the initial stages, is always remarkable, and it always has the effect of amplifying the
soul's determination to succeed fully. 12/10/2000 | |
| When the soul begins to
experience some
success in this regard in the course of its daily altar work, then there is the natural desire to try to
extend that success to other areas of life. For example, during my daily 30 minute walks, and they
are fast and strenuous walks, not strolls, I devote a particular stretch to Michael calls with the
objective of focusing on the victory of God's will in an uninterrupted manner. On the next portion
of the walk I affirm "O God my Beloved Father I Am That I Am, I accept your infinite love of me
personally" with the objective of not simply anchoring an uninterrupted sense of that love, but I
think more importantly, trying to enter into an uninterrupted sense of how much the realization of
that love reflects the most fundamental dimension of God's will for me. Then I return to Michaels
for a another stretch, and then back to the " I accept" affirmations, and so
forth. 12/10/2000 |
| Success in this regards it
much more readily
achievable at the altar, for the forcefield at the altar supports the effort, and even perhaps has the
effect of amplifying the effort. It is much more difficult to achieve a similar level of focus away
from the altar. 12/10/2000 | |
| And thus, when one is away
from the altar,
and you have a block of time where you can focus on these objectives, and our physical exercise
periods are most obvious opportunities in this regard, one can really get a sense of how scattered
and untrained our mental/desire bodies really are. Persistent effort over time is the only way to
change this situation. 12/10/2000 |
| Without daily use of the
Violet Flame the
desire nature will never reach that preliminary level of purification which allows the longing for the
victory of God's will to take root. 12/10/2000 | |
| The use of the sword (at the
altar) allows a
new determination for the victory of the light to be made manifest within the consciousness
overall. I definitely sense a boost in the tangibility of the victory of the light having now been
convinced of the importance of picking up the sword of Archangel Michael and wielding it against
the forces of darkness to which I am normally directing calls during the main preamble. For
example, the forces on the astral plane that promote and support the abortion of God's children in
the womb; the forces of the drug conspiracy; the forces of world Communism; the forces of
homosexuality; etc. 12/11/2000 |
| Life is a lonely desolation
without the
friendship and companionship of God. 12/11/2000 | |
| In regards to the full
realization of the sunshine
of God's love, the soul has a monumental challenge before it. (to consider this we enter into the
region of allegory). The soul has dug itself into what has been referred to in scripture as the
bottomless pit, composed of the nearly unlimited number of astral distractions to which the soul
has become wedded. The soul stands at the bottom of that pit and has the great mandate before it
to climb out, pulling the floor up with it. During our devotions at the altar, by virtue of the
descending light that we invoke, a narrow shaft leading to the surface is cleared away. High above
a pinpoint of light representing God's love can be seen. But over the course of each night this
shaft collapses, or perhaps is simply filled in by the surrounding astral ocean. Therefore, the shaft
must be reopened anew each day through additional invocations to the light, and once it has been
reopened the soul then must climb up a few feet, and pull the floor up with it to form a solid
platform upon which the soul can stand and perhaps get some rest before the work of the next day
must commence anew. 12/11/2000 |
| The highlight of this decree
service so far has
to be our success in holding our desire body in a configuration of longing for the victory of God's
will throughout most of 15 minute Violet Flame session. 12/11/2000 | |
| This focus on the purity of
the desire nature is
an important transitional station that is located between, on the one hand, a sense of identity based
upon physical characteristics (and worldly concerns), and on the other hand, a sense of identity
based upon the quality of light contained within the forcefield of being. 12/11/2000 |
| I say this because we find
our self marveling
at the sparkling purity embodied by the (ascended lady master) Queen of Light , and understanding
that we will one day assess the quality of our own character solely on the basis of the quality of
light contained in our own forcefield. 12/11/2000 | |
| The only reason this
presidential election was
decided by the U.S. Supreme Court was because Al Gore stubbornly pursued an inherently
dishonest way to manufacture votes, i.e. to fabricate votes, i.e. to create votes where none
heretofore existed. 12/11/2000 |
| There is a definite and
unmistakable sense of
glory exuding from this sense of identity based upon the purity of light. It appears to emanate
primarily from the heart area, and I can say that without reserve, that my reaction to this
perception is one of considerable awe at the prospect that one day we will actually live consciously
within the ambiance of this glory on a permanent basis. I would say that this is clearly the basis
upon which the prophets of old were able to praise God without ceasing, for of a truth, you move
from one moment to the next in state of wonder and awe. 12/11/2000 | |
| With this reality thrust to the
very surface of
awareness, this really gives the word "meditation" a new meaning. 12/11/2000 |
| (transcription note: rather
than closing your
eyes and staring a nothing, here it is like an emersion in a waterfall of scintillating power, though
this waterfall flows from the inside out, and all of the sensations associated with this reality are all
right in front of your face.) 12/12/2000 | |
| I should note that these
perceptions come on
the aftermath of a shift in awareness during our "I Seek Thee" decrees (50.04), where I found my
soul reaching out with the entirety of all that I am to embrace God, and God was there to embrace
me in return. A huge and lingering hug. I think I would like my soul to be in that posture, one
way or another, eternally. 12/11/2000 |
| If we can't stay in that
embrace in the short
term, a longing to return to it will suffice. 12/11/2000 | |
| We end this decree service
with the most
blessed forcefield of peace and crystal clarity in the third eye chakra area. 12/12/2000 |
| Lest I forget, we got to
spend nearly the
totality of our 15 minute Violet Flame session ensconced in a forcefield of light that appeared to be
made up of many flowers of many colors. 12/12/2000 | |
| If I could I would gather up
all the energies of
my entire being and form them all, according to the deep desire of my heart, into the most
magnificent bouquet of gratitude, and lay that bouquet at the feet of Mother
Mary. 12/12/2000 |
| I am so happy inside - if
you could see in
there you wouldn't believe it was possible. 12/12/2000 | |
| I am an electrode of
immutable
devotion. 12/12/2000 |
| Into this dark and desolate
chamber dawns the
translucent clarity of divine power during our Hail Mary's. Lands of enchanted beauty are
suggested just beyond the veil. 12/13/2000 | |
| At one point the soul is
struggling within the
chains of human inertia composed of all manner of astral stickiness I imagine, and then, lo, the
purity of divine power appears, the magic of Houdini, if you remember who he is, is embodied in
the light itself. It is the power of freedom. 12/13/2000 |
| It is very satisfying to
experience one's desire
for the Victory of God's Will to expand out from the precinct of self to encompass the entire
planetary body. Again I note that the origin of this desire is the heart. (During Violet Flame
calls). 12/13/2000 | |
| We got to spend most of that
Violet Flame
session contemplating the power of desire (emanating from the heart) for the Victory of God's
Will across the entire planetary body. This is new in terms of tangibility, constancy, and
scope. 12/13/2000 |
| During our Diagonal
Pushups (DPU's 33x -
during which we affirm God's infinite love for us personally), a forcefield of wondrous clarity
descends into my temple, and I am one with an intricate castle/catherdral of crystal
light. 12/13/2000 | |
| Of course, a lot of time is
spent affirming
without experience, but when you are integrated with the experience, it is always lightyears beyond
what the imagination could have ever conceived. The fabric of the identity is filled out in that
moment with the expansive substance of divine reality, a joy and a wonder to
ponder. 12/13/2000 |
| In the midst of total crystal
peace, we wonder
if we will ever be able to find words that could convey to the reader the quality of that
power. 12/13/2000 | |
| I want to affirm the absolute
fact that when
one is immersed in this cyrstal light, when one ponders the substance of this crystal light as the
very fabric of identity, clearly understand that this is a taste of the greater Victory of God's Will
that is yet to come, there is nothing about if from which the soul would shrink, either in fear or for
any other reason. It is absolutely, thoroughly, and completely a blessing of awesome
dimensions. 12/13/2000 |
| God's Love builds up the
identity of the soul
with the substance of wonder itself. 12/13/2000 | |
| And it is easy to see from
this standpoint, from
the perspective of immersion in the wonder God has poured into you, that the forces of
Communism, being arrayed against the Path of Initiation which leads the soul to this point, must be
opposed, that we must not do anything at all to strengthen their hold on power in any nation,
including China. 12/13/2000 |
| When you think of an
Ascended Master, you
need to remember that they all live within divine glory. 12/13/2000 | |
| Had to make a long drive
into the San
Fernando Valley this morning. Arriving home I feel like climbing under a rock and going to sleep.
I am 100 million miles away from any desire to do my decree work. Nevertheless, Thank God for
strong habit patterns. 12/14/2000 |
| All opposition to our service
has fallen away
by the time we are half way through our main preamble and inserts. We don't have the sense of
total freedom yet, but we can move forward in a normal manner. 12/14/2000 | |
| Two-thirds of our way
through our Michaels, a
ring of fire appears at the crown chakra. It is the fire of freedom. 12/14/2000 |
| O God, please multiply my
capacity to be
devoted to your Will! 12/14/2000 | |
| We have been suspended in
the Flame of
Freedom throughout our 20.09 dweller calls and .30 Solar Ring calls. Floating in the embrace of
divine light without any sense of human gravity at all. 12/14/2000 |
| Entered into the decree
service with my mind
and emotions torn and twisted and tugged by an issue of family contention. Half way through our
ten (10) Tube of Light decrees my mind and emotions are embraced by divine power, and we are
now at peace, totally free from the former condition. 12/16/2000 | |
| The Presence of God is a
more immediate
reality, our consciousness merged with a power than cannot be dragged down into that vortex of
contention. Of course, we are before the altar. 12/16/2000 |
| There is every reason for
you to have
complete faith and trust that God will give you what you need to succeed. There is every reason
for this faith and trust to be absolute, seamless, and impenetrable by any sliver, prick, or shadow of
doubt. Just make the call. 12/16/2000 | |
| Its like you are wrestling with
a Grizzly Bear,
and you are losing. Your mental and emotional skin is being torn to shreds. But all of sudden, not
only has the Grizzly Bear vanished, but your seated on a nice warm rock overlooking a quiet
mountain meadow. You feel the sweet breeze upon your face, the smell of pine needles is thick in
the air, and you mental and emotional body shows no sign whatsoever of the former struggle. Not
only have you been restored to wholeness, but you have been lifted into the domain of freedom,
i.e. freedom to serve the light without encumberance. 12/16/2000 |
| We got to spend the whole
20.12 matrix
(Ratify the Judgment of Helios - including 20.07 Judgment calls, 20.09 Dweller calls, and .30
Solar Ring calls) in a profound forcefield of delight. Embraced by divine power, and suspended
within it, it is also true that we were delighted to proceed forward with every single syllable of
every single word, of every single call. This condition of being is the very opposite of human
inertia that would otherwise tend to drag the mind and emotions to a dead
stop. 12/16/2000 | |
| Quite an intense burden of
oppression that we
had to carry through most of the service until we reached the .30 Solar Ring calls (part of the
20.12 matrix). Here absolute peace took up its abode in your temple. 12/19/2000 |
| One needs to understand
that the condition of
oppression causes the mind to spin off little movies, each having a central theme or plot of anxiety,
and that anxiety further degrades the state of mind, to the extent that one can honestly say that a
condition of mental and emotional pain exists, and I suppose you could also use the word
"suffering" to describe it. 12/19/2000 | |
| The contrast between what
was, and what now
is, therefore could not be greater. All of the sensations associated with being ground down by the
grindstone of oppression are absolutely gone, and only perfect peace exists throughout all regions
of awareness. 12/19/2000 |
| For the remainder of the
decree service we
can contemplate the significance of this transcendent experience and perhaps come to some deeper
conclusions in regards to it. I main, beyond the most obvious conclusion that there is nothing you
can do during a given day that is more important that doing your decree work. 12/19/2000 | |
| Total service to the Flame of
Victory must be
total dedication to the Science of the Spoken Word. 12/19/2000 |
| As we are able to anchor
for a while the
longing for the Victory of God's Will, there is a distinct sense of home about it. And as I
catch my mind wandering into the contemplation of some mundane family matter, I am surprised
to see what a grotesque trajectory of distraction this represents as we see how far we had allowed
our mind to wander from this longing. 12/20/2000 | |
| Even though the distracting
thought was
benign, it gobbled up my attention completely, and for a moment we were completely separated
from the central hearth of this longing. 12/20/2000 |
| I did it again during the
20.07 Judgment calls,
this time my mind was carried away by a political river of distraction. Even though I am quite
comfortable inside such a three dimensional imaginary world, it is clear that this propensity to
distraction is robbing me of precious opportunity to focus on Reality while we are before the
Altar. 12/20/2000 | |
| I am thinking that the time
before the Altar
must be dedicated to this effort of keeping your attention upon the Reality of
God. 12/20/2000 |
| I am also thinking that
during most of your
time away from the Altar, circumstance must of necessity draw your attention into various
compartments of distraction, where you travel far afield from an sense of God's abiding presence.
I am thinking that at some point you will have to learn how to blend your desire to focus upon
God, with those activities. But you will never be able to succeed in that, if you are not first
successful in developing the capacity to devote the entirety of your attention upon the Reality of
God while you are engaged in your Altar work. If you can't do it there, you will not be able to do
it anywhere. 12/20/2000 | |
| And therefore, in a broader
sense, an
individual cannot draw closer to God without establishing a daily routine of service before the
Altar of the Holy Grail. 12/20/2000 |
| I am comforted by the fact
that the greatest
prize is not easily won. In other words, its not supposed to be easy. If it were easy you would
have achieved it long ago. 12/20/2000 | |
| We experienced a very
strong desire to skip
our altar work today, thinking that we would be at peace just sitting in front of the television.
Thank God for strong habit patterns though. Our feet carried head and body, unwilling as they
were, before the altar, where we stood marveling at the total and complete wall of nothingness that
stood before us. Plowing our way through our Tubes of Light ... hmm ... Light dawns .... and half
way through our first set of Hail Mary's we find our self in a frame of mind that desires only one
thing, and that is to proceed forward with our decree work. All opposition has been swept aside
and we are free to ponder with great expectation the appearance of that passion of the heart that
longs for the victory of God's Will. 12/21/2000 |
| During the latter part of this
decree service, a
heavy burden of oppression descended upon us, it was suffocating. All sense of divine reality
vanished. This lasted for about 15 minutes. During that time it was clear that no effort of the
human will could lift it, which served as an affirmation that there is no connection between the
human will and divine freedom. 12/21/2000 | |
| We continued our calls
through this suffocating
oppression even though we were literally squirming under the weight of it and thinking seriously of
leaving the altar. Though I think that one idea that kept me pinned to my seat was the idea that the
Masters could lift this oppression at any point, and because they are not lifting it, it must be some
additional burden that I am required to bear for a time. So I continued on. Finally, at one point,
the burden broke, though in the third eye area only. The power of divine freedom was solidly
anchored in the third eye, allowing my being to pour all attention into that region of freedom, even
though the oppression still rested heavily on every other part of my body. By the end of the
decree service, in the midst of the last set of Hail Marys, the power of divine freedom consumed
the burden at all points, and I was at last seated in a forcefield of complete peace and
light. 12/21/2000 |
| After all the blessings I have
received at this
altar, I am amazed that when I approach the altar anew, my being is filled with so much
reluctance, and my imagination insists on presenting various other activities to my mind as if they
are green and peaceful pastures. 12/22/2000 | |
| We are walking right into the
teeth of this
grindstone of inertia. 12/22/2000 |
| But the first light of divine
freedom appears
during our opening statement as we stand before the altar, and now, no matter how all
encompassing that reluctance, that inertia,, appeared before, no matter how strongly it was
gripping and pressing against the fabric of my mind, it is now gone. And the power of freedom
captures all of my attention, and so it goes. 12/22/2000 | |
| If you are looking for an
example of the victory
of God's will to focus upon during course of this service, there it is. 12/22/2000 |
| The soul, have been
squashed flat under the
grindstone of human inertia, is being ground down into the oblivion of death, and is powerless to
resist. But the call compels the answer, and the shining hand of God reaches down and flick that
grindstone away as if it were no more than a fruit fly perched on his big toe. And now, the soul
anointed with the power of freedom climbs to its feet, stand firmly before the altar, and calls forth
the hosts of the Lord to deliver the gift of freedom to the entire planetary
body. 12/22/2000 | |
| During the first set of Hail
Marys we have
been transported into a forcefield of absolute crystal clarity. 12/22/2000 |
| I am the embodiment of
pure desire for the
victory of God's will. 12/22/2000 | |
| We got to spend the entire
Michael session
(45x) with our consciousness fully merged with the most blessed forcefield of peace. The only
thing distinctly human that registered on my awareness was the pressure of my rear end on the
chair. The mind embraced throughout by the tangible fire of crystal tranquility, a thoroughly
delightful state of being. 12/22/2000 |
| I suppose if one were to try
to generate a
worldly metaphor, the closest you might come to it would be a golden throne charged with an aura
of transcendent power, with the upholstering woven of magic rose petals, each thread charged with
the immutable promises of God. Sitting on that throne you are immersed in the sense of beauty
and power. Now, while this might be an interesting analogy, what I have described in terms of
internal experience is infinitely better, for all of the glory is internal, not
external. 12/22/2000 | |
| During the whole of our
violet flame session
(15 minutes), we were given the opportunity to focus on that tiny thread of illumination that speaks
to the soul about the importance of coming into a realization of God's infinite love for the soul
personally. However tiny and difficult to grasp, it nevertheless communicates a level of great
power in terms of the aura of importance that surrounds it. As we tried to grasp it, it led our
attention to the heart, as if to say that this thread of illumination has its origin
there. 12/22/2000 |
| One of the more amazing
and wonderful
aspects of this particular experience was coming into contact with a very powerful sense that we
were approaching the central treasury of all good things from which we could draw in abundance
for all the rest of eternity. It had that sense of boundless breadth and depth, in terms of time and
in terms of an internal conflagration of joy. 12/22/2000 | |
| To become a master at
anchoring, grasping,
and expressing these internal treasures ... What an amazing prospect this presents, especially
juxtaposed to our current level of expertise, which is nothing to write home
about. 12/22/2000 |
| The reality of that love is
deep deep deep
deep deep deep deep within the internal regions. 12/22/2000 | |
| The most blessed crystal fire
peace during our
.30 Solar Ring calls. An awareness of the awesome nature/reality of God our Father, who holds
out the most blessed love of us personally, and penetrating crystal fire in the third eye chakra as we
do the Tube of Light portion of that decree matrix. (.30 Solar Ring calls given as part of the 20.12
decree matrix). 12/22/2000 |
| The golden thread of
illumination that speaks
of the reality and the awesome nature of God's Love. 12/22/2000 | |
| Crystal fire in the crown
during Astreas
(3x). 12/22/2000 |
| This whole section of the
decree service, after
returning from our errands, we were immersed in that crystal peace. 12/22/2000 | |
| We made the transition
through the wall of
reluctance into the flame and region of divine freedom during our opening statements. I think I
will call this the flame of holy service, in as much as we begin, as we approach the altar,
embodying the reluctance to serve before the altar, being wrapped around and about with the
carnal chains of anti-service, and as we stand before the altar speaking the word, watching these
chains fall off, and finding ourself in exactly the opposite modality of being, i.e. in the updraft of
delight at the opportunity to serve. 12/23/2000 |
| I am filled with so much
peace, light, and
delight as we proceed forward through our main insert. 12/23/2000 | |
| During our Michaels we got
to focus on the
victory of God's will throughout, and we can see this is much more than an idea, though one must
begin with the idea. Behind the idea is a flame, and that flame is devoted to bringing forth the full
abundance of the causal body. 12/23/2000 |
| We feel like we are in the
seat of a high flying
aircraft, cushioned all about by uplifting power. 12/23/2000 | |
| We feel like we are on this
narrow rickety foot
bridge draped across a huge abyss. The bridge is anchored to the solid rock behind, and we
imagine that it is anchored to the solid rock ahead, though we cannot see the far side. We walk
forward through this thick fog of time only on the planks of faith and trust in God. We have not
had our feet planted on solid ground for more than a week now. And it may well be another week
before we reach the other side. 12/25/2000 |
| Though I have to say that
we feel halfway
normal as we finish our main preamble and insert. In other words, the planks of this narrow foot
bridge have become as solid as a rock. 12/25/2000 | |
| I do marvel at the solidity of
being into which
we have entered, compared to the quivering bowl of jelly that moments before characterized our
emotional body as we grasped the side ropes with such trembling trepidation. 12/25/2000 |
| During our 30.08 calls (7x)
we experience
such a power of strength and solidity emanating from the heart. It is an amazing experience and it
is definitely something new. It is the strength of many mountains. And rather than just desiring to
be a vessel for the light to enter into the world, we now can see the advantage of being a
vessel for that quality of God to enter into the world. 12/25/2000 | |
| I wanted to say further that
this only goes to
prove fro the hundredth time that the reality of the divine identity makes its first appearance before
the altar; that service before the altar is the center of the flower of life. If there is no center, there
is nothing for the petals to attach themselves. 12/25/2000 |
| Having tasted this sense of
strength in the
heart, how could one live without it after that? I can see now how the power of the heart can be
worshipped, celebrated, adored, and above all longed after with the greatest
passion. 12/25/2000 | |
| This is the strength of the
God Presence, a
rock that appears to which the tired, stooped and stumbling soul can cling in the midst of the sea,
with the greated confidence and relief. 12/25/2000 |
| I bow, O God, before the
glory that I now
know that you will bestow upon me in the due course of time. Having shown me this, I know with
certainty that it is your desire to have me possess it permanently, and having thus promised me
this, there is nothing that you will withhold from me. 12/25/2000 | |
| Let this strength hold me fast
to the cross of
service first and foremost. 12/25/2000 |
| China trade is the more
indisidious in as much
as 90% of employment in the United States is provided by small business, which are the first to put
out of business by a flood of cheap imports from Communist China. 12/25/2000 | |
| With this strength glowing in
the heart I can
see how it is possible that every thought of the mind can be made to serve God's plan and
purpose, for that is the totality of your desire, i.e. to move God's plan and purpose forward, that is
your total desire. 12/25/2000 |
| Day #2 of the strength of
many
mountains. 12/26/2000 | |
| We focus on the victory of
God's will, our
awareness expands to encompass the entire planetary body, but this is not a uni-dimensional
awareness, but rather one that has the sense of a vast pulsating mechanism of wondrous
complexity with all the parts and pieces moving in concert with the will of God, (with the
exception of those pieces which are actively resisting), but not only that. The call that goes forth
[from the altar] helps to nudge aspects of this complex mechanism closer to the victory of God's
will. 12/26/2000 |
| Every word out of your
mouth touches every
filament of creation for good or for ill. As we focus on the victory of God's will, we sense that
our words nourish the process of giving birth to that victory. 12/26/2000 | |
| I am the purest electrode of
longing for the
victory of God's will. 12/26/2000 |
| There is great happiness
and even great joy
associated with the desire body approaching a condition of unanimity in regards to the victory of
God's will. 12/26/2000 | |
| The most exquisite crystal
clarity permeating
the totality of our awareness during the .30 Solar Ring calls (part of 20.12 matrix). It is so
powerful, yet it is also so beautifully and naturally woven into the very fabric of our
awareness. 12/26/2000 |
| Perhaps this is how we are
meant to feel when
God permanently substitutes a glowing diamond for every cell in each of your four lower
bodies. 12/26/2000 | |
| We had some interesting
insights during our 30
minute walk. [continuous calls to Archangel Michael and affirmations of God's infinite love
throughout] The power of the heart is not placed into the hands of the soul until the soul has
proven that it can safeguard that power and use it only in a manner that serves the greater plan and
purpose of God. That is why revelations of great power come to the soul in the midst of its service
before the altar. It is there that the soul is aligned to God's purpose. The container of light that
hold the power of God, that safeguards the power of God, is the desire o see the victory of God's
will fulfilled. Therefore, the level of power that can be safely vouchsafed to the soul is
proportional to the level of desire the soul has to see the victory of God's will fulfilled. Therefore,
it is fitting that the first increment of power which the soul receives, the strength of power that was
revealed Christmas Day, was the strength necessary to hold fast to that desire to see God's will
fulfilled victoriously. Moreover, it is clear, having seen and experienced that power, that it is a
power beyond the capacity of the human mind to imagine, and therefore beyond the capacity of
the human mind to control. God is power. That power is not vouchsafed to the soul beyond the
soul's proven capacity to use it in service to God's plan. And finally, the internal regions of reality
transcend all outer circumstance. Of course, the human mind will see it the other way around in as
much as outer circumstance is always in control of the internal regions of the human mind and
emotions. But given the fact that all of the visible creation, and all of its natural law mechanisms
spring from immutable internal regions, one can more readily attest to the reasonableness of the
former assertion. 12/26/2000 |
| Day #3 of the strength of
many
mountains. 12/27/2000 | |
| We had a fair amount of
success keeping our
mind on the victory of God's will during the whole of the violet flame session (15 minutes). In
fact I sense some improvement in this regard, in as much as the focus on the victory of God's will
allowed a tangible joy to manifest itself within me. When we caught our mind drifting, more than
the specific thought pattern, we noticed a pall of dullness descend over us, and we would pick up
the thoughtform of the victory of God's will once again, and the pall of dullness would melt away,
and the joy would reappear. Even so, this takes effort, and we felt a sensation of fatigue
afterwards, in which we have mentally reclined as it were in a rest position. 12/27/2000 |
| After taking the break and
returning to the
altar, having the 20.12 decree matrix ahead of us, we entered into it with the desire to cut it short,
clearly having in mind that we would do only (3) 20.07 calls and move on. But the light of
freedom appeared on the first 20.07 call placing our desire body in a completely opposite polarity
of divine delight allowing us to proceed forward with (9) repetitions of both the 20.07 Judgment
call and the 20.09 Dweller call. 12/27/2000 | |
| The power of God clears the
path ahead.
Where there was only the tangled thicket of human inertia, laziness, and lethargy looming before
us only moments before, there is now a golden archway paved with white marble through which
we proceed with great delight and almost effortlessly, as if angelic porters had lifted you up and
carried you through to the other side. 12/27/2000 |
| And the important thing is
the fact that the
archway golden appears not just for you, but it appears for many who are ensnared in much
thicker wickets of inertia. Many souls find there way to the Path because Keepers of the Flame
give their Judgment and Dweller calls on daily basis. They are in this manner expanding
opportunity for thousands and ultimately millions. 12/27/2000 | |
| Compared to all dimensions
of human
pleasure, only at the altar, does the soul experience that deep, deep, deep delight associated with
unity with God's unfolding plan. Yes, the soul is draped over the unfolding rose of God's
purpose, and experiencing firsthand the incremental movement of all the petals moving towards
the ultimate blossoming of victory, not just in the microcosm, but in the macrocosm too. That is
the source of the deep, deep, deep delight the soul experiences in her service before the altar of the
Holy Grail. 12/27/2000 |
| This is true because the soul
in not finite, but
rather, being made in the image of God, resides within the infinite reaches of creation. As the soul
comes into alignment with that ritual of service that has infinite impact, God has the power to tie
the soul into each facet of the plan that is moving forward towards victory as a result of that
service. This is the source of that deep, deep, deep delight the soul experiences in service before
the altar of the Holy Grail. 12/27/2000 | |
| During 40.06 purity decrees
(3x), our heart
opens up to reveal a vast expanse of divine cities having the overall ambiance of Bethlehem. We
looking through a portal framed in gold. 12/27/2000 |
| During 20.00 illumination
calls (3x),
immersed in a pillar of golden light. We can clearly sense the golden fabric of this
forcefield. 12/27/2000 | |
| The heart is a tremendous
center of magical
treasure. 12/27/2000 |
| What a blessed forcefield of
crystal peace we
are immersed in during our 50.05 I Seek Thee calls. Every atom of our being is seated on its own
magic carpet. 12/27/2000 | |
| Even though the end of the
decree service is in
sight, I am not looking forward to arriving there. How does one walk out of the sanctuary and
maintain this condition of peace as we begin to interlock with the various forcefields of mundane
activity? I suppose that is what the sealing is for. This region of etheric loveliness will be largely
withdrawn up into the causal body until our next service. 12/27/2000 |
| Day #4 of the strength of
many
mountains. 12/28/2000 | |
| Beloved El Morya, please
help me to hold that
perfect geometry of desire, that deep and profound longing for the victory of the will of God in
every atom, cell, and electron of my entire consciousness, being and world. 12/28/2000 |
| Keeping your attention
upon the victory of
God's will is not an effortless proposition, especially away from the altar. The astral plane is
constantly tying to establish an equilibrium between itself and your desire
body. 12/29/2000 | |
| Day #5 of the strength of
many
mountains. 12/29/2000 |
| First flush of divine
freedom appears during
our first set of (15) Hail Marys. 12/29/2000 | |
| Up until that point we were
feeling only the
fatigue associated with the pull of the astral plane, our consciousness woven into a swirling mass of
lethargy. Now, however, the flame of freedom is established in the third eye area, and we able to
proceed forward without any resistance, fully cognizant that there is no place on earth I would
rather be than right here before the altar of the Holy Grail, i.e. our outpost of that
altar. 12/29/2000 |
| A burden of oppression
descended upon us
during our 30.08 Covenant of the Magi calls (7x), masking any sense of divine reality. That
burden broke during our next set of (15) Hail Marys, where the power of divine freedom appeared
again. 12/29/2000 | |
| During our Michaels (45x)
we had to struggle
somewhat to lock into our desire for the victory of God's will, and to hold our desire body in that
configuration. The first third was a struggle, and the last two-thirds we experienced a substantial
amount of success, where we found that the glow of that desire is considerably fulfilling and self-
supporting. But we have to do better. 12/29/2000 |
| I do want to make it clear
that when you
begin to succeed in bring the totality of your desire body into that alignment, that you actually
enter into a region of awareness where the sensation of fulfillment is complete, even absolute. It is
not an abstraction in any sense of the word. The soul is suspended in a glow of fire that promises
fulfillment of every good thing that God has in store for you, and for the
world. 12/29/2000 | |
| A new increment of divine
fire during our next
set of (15) Hail Marys, lifting our attention away from the mental and into the contemplation of
power, of peace, in the third eye area. 12/29/2000 |
| We got to spend the whole
of the violet flame
session (15 minutes), from preamble to the end, with our third eye area charged with the most
blessed exquisite glow of peace. It is as if you were looking out at a thousand scenes of tranquil
beauty, yet this the power that is behind the creation of the beauty. In the midst of this what joy
there is to invite the violet flame angels to help you make it come to pass that there is only one
desire here, one desire deeper than all the oceans, for the victory of God's
will. 12/29/2000 | |
| There is only one desire, one
longing, one
passion, and that is for the victory of God's will. 12/29/2000 |
| Another increment of
sacred fire of peace and
freedom poured into my mind and third eye area during our next set of (15) Hail
Marys. 12/29/2000 | |
| The blessed sacred fire of
peace was anchored
in and around the third eye area during the whole of the 20.12 decree matrix (Ratification of the
Judgment of Helios), which included 20.07 Judgment calls (5x) and 20.09 Dweller calls (5x), and
the Solar Ring call, during which the crystal fire of ineffable tranquility and stability was greatly
magnified. 12/29/2000 |
| Crystal fire in the third eye
area --- cool air
conditioned comfort. But it is more than that. The attention of soul is transfixed upon this power.
The crystal fire draws all attention to it. It is the magnet of blessedness. It is the magnet of
preciousness. It attracts by virtue of its capacity to deeply communicate the quality of blessedness
and preciousness to the soul. It is just there, and what more can you say than that it transcends all
conditions associated with human feelings and thought processes. It is a power in a category
beyond any of these. 12/29/2000 | |
| At this point one cannot see
beyond this
manifestation of power. Its like a campfire in the wilderness on a cold night. We are all around it
absorbing it many qualities, but we cannot see beyond the flames, at least not
yet. 12/29/2000 |
| A new and deeper presence
of peace during
our next (25) Hail Marys. 12/29/2000 | |
| As I repeat this over and
over at the end of our
decree service, "There is only one desire here and that is for the victory of God's will," I can feel
my being extend from the heart, a big hug for God. And there is nothing more precious than that
embrace. 12/29/2000 |
| We began this decree
service with our feet
planted firmly in the astral valley. We end it upon the mountain of divine reality, looking back
down the slope, marveling once again at the power of God to lift you up and out of states of
bondage and oppression which appear impenetrable, in response to your calls. 12/29/2000 | |
| Began this decree service
under a very
powerful weight of oppression, lethargy, inertia, squirming under the weight of it. Heavy
downward pressure on the spine just below the heart area. Took (15) Tubes of Light to break it.
The downward pressure was only just beginning to lift as we completed our normal (10)
repetitions. Continued on into the clear! Houdini breaks his chains again! Resurrected from the
tar pit, clean, shining and free! We are now immersed in the light of freedom. 12/30/2000 |
| Day #6 of the strength of
many
mountains. 12/30/2000 | |
| Whose freedom do we stand
in? It is the
freedom of the God Presence I Am That I Am. 12/30/2000 |
| When one seeks for an
understanding of why
trade with Communist China is contrary to the will of God, one must factor the Path of Initiation
into the center of the equation. The abundance of wealth in America was released to serve the
purposes of God in the establishment of a society where religious freedom would be guaranteed,
where the Path of Initiation could again take root and be established firmly with no threat of the
power of the State to destroy it. It is unlawful to share this wealth with a nation whose very
structure was established to stamp pout any and all attempts to restore the Path of Initiation in the
midst of the people. The forces of Communism are dedicated to the overall goal of denying the
reestablishment of this Path. 12/30/2000 | |
| The blessed spirit of divine
peace flows into
our world during the next set of (15) Hail Marys. This Hail Mary prayer takes a somewhat
different form than the standard Catholic version. It goes like this, "Hail Mary full of grace, the
Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus.
Holy Mary mother of God, pray for us sons and daughters of God, now and at the hour of our
victory over sin, disease and death." 12/30/2000 |
| In regards to the wealth
released by God in
America, it is for a purpose. Wealth equals power, and power equals strength, and strength is
required to defend the country from the forces of darkness which would overcome America if they
could for the purpose of stamping out the Path of Initiation. 12/30/2000 | |
| We have to remember that
all of the steel the
Japanese used to build their navy and their aircraft, bombs and torpedoes, was purchased from
America, and those ships, aircraft, bombs and torpedoes, were used to inflict horrendous damage
and casualties on U.S. Military personnel at Pearl Harbor and beyond. 12/30/2000 |
| We are thinking (as we are
making our bed)
and as we sing "Praise God from whom all blessings flow ...", we are longing for our body to be
composed of many little fires of celebration of the God the Father. If only my being could be
constantly alive with these many little fires of celebration. 12/31/2000 | |
| A longing for the many fires
of celebration to
be burning and blazing brightly within me. Each one celebrating and that constantly, the never-
ending Glory of God. 12/31/2000 |
| The many fires of
celebration
... 12/31/2000 | |
| A fairly hefty pain has come
upon my right
wrist. 12/31/2000 |
| I would propose that the
many fires of
celebration are the natural co-inhabitants of the internal being of the divine estate. And that the
fall of man came about when he was tempted to allow those fires to be extinguished one by
one. 12/31/2000 | |
| Power of divine freedom
appears on the
second of ten Tubes of Light. 12/31/2000 |
| Many many fires of the
celebration of the
Glory of God. 12/31/2000 | |
| Day #7 of the strength of
many
mountains. 12/31/2000 |
| Day #1 of the many many
fires of the
celebration of the Glory of God. 12/31/2000 | |
| It is quite painful to write if
we do not take the
utmost care. But remember, all pain is transmutative. Pain consumes the artificial barriers
between the soul and God. 12/31/2000 |
| Those who believe that they
will find their
freedom in economics will only prolong their slavery. And what better example of this than the
new Capitalists of Red China, who miss the fact that the chains are becoming stronger and tighter
around their ankles as they devote their full attention to the popular process of stuffing their
pockets full of green backs. 12/31/2000 | |
| In fact, what good is a bank
account against a
division of tanks outfitted with the latest thermal imaging technology posted at every city
intersection? When the Communist government becomes ever more capable of keeping the people
cowering in their homes, what hope is their for freedom? 12/31/2000 |
| All of a sudden I feel the
most blessed
gratitude well up within me, and my heart reaches out to give the Ascended Masters a huge
hug. 12/31/2000 | |
| During our Cyclopeas, an
impression of a
being of the purest white light just beyond the veil. 12/31/2000 |
| As we focus on our prayer
for the new year,
to become the purist electrode of desire for the victory of God's will, an impression, in the third
eye area of a delicate white star and just beneath it a triangular Christmas tree with many delicate
lights of multiple colors with the promise flowing out of these impressions and into me that in the
fulfillment of this prayer, this desire, everything will come to me. 12/31/2000 | |
| Essentially it is the clear
knowledge that in the
victory of God's will, it is the abundance of God's love that is released unto you, and that makes
all within you leap for joy. 12/31/2000 |
| And the victory of God's
infinite goodness
unto all life, that this is a worthy end to serve and to dedicate the totality of being. But not only
that. It is an awesome honor. And before this possibility the soul bows in deepest
gratitude. 12/31/2000 | |
| We confront the work of the
new year to come
with an amazing array of profound and dazzling assurances; a support structure of internal
revelation the likes of which we have never had before. 12/31/2000 |
