Daily Prayers in the U.S. House
January 25,
2001 | Daily Prayers in the U.S. Senate
January 25, 2001 | | U.S. House not in
session today | The PRESIDENT pro tempore. The prayer
today will be offered by our guest Chaplain, Father James Francis Trainor, pastor at Saint
Mary's/Saint Patrick's Parish, Wilmington, DE.
The guest Chaplain, Father James Francis Trainor, offered the following
prayer:
Let us pray and bring ourselves into the presence of the Lord.
Loving God, Creator of all that is and all that shall be, who in Your
providence have filled our lives with the opportunity for sufficiency in our everyday existence, give
us a clear vision of the challenge You set before us as individuals and as a nation.
Help us to live this vision with such an appreciation of our blessing that
we feel compelled to share that blessing and that sufficiency with all our sisters and brothers in the
human family.
Lord, in a special way, guide and strengthen the men and women of this
Senate as they seek daily to solve the problems and meet the challenges of this Nation. Help them
to have that honest dedication which singles them out as Your humble servants. May they always
remember that You are at their side, guiding their steps and weighing their actions.
Help these servants of the people, as they enter into a new year and a
new millennium, to be filled with such courage that they fear not the tasks before them but meet
them with confidence, remembering that they can do all things through You who strengthen them.
May they recall that wisdom of old: ``Unless the Lord builds the city, you labor in vain, who build
it.''--Psalm 127:1. May they walk always with You. Amen.

| p.m. decree service in
sanctuary |
 Power of divine freedom appears at the
3rd eye and crown chakra areas on the 1st of Ten Tubes of Light. All heaviness of concern
regarding the fact that our schedule has slipped two hours today, and the great concern of how to
fit four hours of decree work into two hours, is completely obliterated. What a wondrous power
of infinite assurance, and I have to say what a wondrous power of friendship
too. 1/25/2001 |  |
| It is wondrous to behold how the Light of
Paradise can be seamlessly woven into the fabric of your consciousness, and it can reside there so
beautifully, so naturally, so subtly, like a shining jewel displayed in the most exquisite setting of
self. 1/25/2001 |
| The friendship of your God Presence can
be,
and is now, a fountain of sacred fire rising up within you. 1/25/2001 | |
| The friendship of your own God Presence
can
become so real, so tangible, that it transcends all outer relationships, eclipsing these, like the sun
eclipses the planets in brightness and size. 1/25/2001 |
| One can definitely see and understand now
the genesis of the Golden Age. The soul absorbed into this flame of friendship is exalted into the
infinite treasury of divine desire. 1/25/2001 | |
| And what else could flow forth from a
world
populated with such shining and flaming hearts but the tangible treasures of divine
purpose? 1/25/2001 |
| How can you learn to love God if you do
not
become good friends first? If you do not learn to enjoy each other's
company? 1/25/2001 | |
| Day #32 of the strength of many
mountains,
and #31 of the golden portal of the heart and the many divine cities revealed therein, and #27 of
the many many fires of celebration of the Glory of God. 1/25/2001 |
| Two-thirds of the way through our (45x)
Michaels, the sacred fire of freedom appears anew in the crown chakra area. 1/25/2001 | |
| The human mind, the intellect, cannot
approach this friendship, it cannot grasp it or know it. It is by its very nature a barrier. This
friendship is communicated out of the center of the sacred fire that blossoms within the fabric of
awareness in a region that is beyond intellect. It is within the context of this power of blessedness,
which already has the full attention of the soul, out of which God can choose to communicate this
reality of friendship to the soul. 1/25/2001 |
| I observed this just now, as I took a break
from the altar, and had to deal with various issues of a mundane nature requiring me to engage my
mind, i.e. intellect, and when we arrived back at the altar, we noticed that the reality of that
friendship had disappeared again behind the veil. 1/25/2001 | |
| It was interesting watching us struggle with
various vortices of distracting thought and emotion during that violet flame session. We were
trying to hold our desire body in that configuration of longing for the victory of God's will, but
strong currents kept sweeping us away from the goal to an exasperating extent. But finally,
something clicked, and we said to ourself, or I think that I actually saw the truth of it, that there is
no greater priority than holding your desire body steady and focused on that goal, and so it was
after that, with a sacred fire glow all around, and our heart center emerging into our field of
view. 1/25/2001 |
| If mastery of the desire body can be
compared to the control exhibited by Olympic class ice skaters, what level of mastery have you
attained? I have a desire to skate. I have learned how to put on my skates, and how to tie the laces
just right. However, I cannot keep my balance on the ice more than a few moments at a time.
But, we are in the rink and we are trying. 1/25/2001 | |
| | a.m. decree service in sanctuary |
Went straight to the sanctuary upon
rising (no sunshine today). After working through the clogged mind syndrome, we were able to
focus on the victory of God's will for a substantial portion of our 15 minute Helios and Vesta
decree session, looking beyond it at times to the victory of God's infinite goodness across the entire
planetary
body. During the 15 minute I Am Light session, we were able to hold that as a nearly constant
backdrop to the calls, i.e. the victory of God's infinite goodness for the entire planetary body.
There is something very compelling about that vision. 1/26/2001 |
| There is no other place, but within the
vortex
of the flow of the Word that the soul can practice and master this action of bringing the desire
body into alignment with the longing for the victory of God's will, which has become now a
longing for the victory of God's infinite goodness across the entire planetary body. This focus
moves from the more general to the more precise, allowing the true character and purpose of God
to be before you on a more constant basis providing a much more tangible tie of endearment, i.e.
allowing the development of a much more tangible tie of endearment. [note recorded in
bedroom]. 1/26/2001 | |
| This activity requires the support of the
Mediator which is only directly available within the current of Light invoked through the
invocation of the Word. [note recorded
in bedroom]. 1/26/2001 |
| Also, one cannot mesh with the feedback
the
Master provides unless one has chosen to be involved in the process of bringing forth the victory
of God's infinite goodness, and the only way the soul can be directly involved in that is in service
before the altar, calling forth the Light, not just for oneself, but the entire planetary body. [note
recorded in bedroom]. 1/26/2001 | |
| Life is extended to the soul for one
purpose,
and that is to find its way back to God. [note recorded in bedroom]. 1/26/2001 |
| A heavy oppressive cloud of resentment
has
appeared all around me as we entered into our decree work this afternoon. The light divine
freedom did not appear until the 5th repetition of our Tubes of Light. By the time we reached the
10th repetition the first flush of freedom had not expanded, and the heavy oppressive weight was
still quite evident. We continued on through 15 repetitions, and finally the power of divine
freedom was greatly magnified in the 3rd eye area and the weight of oppression was
gone. 1/26/2001 | |
| I think it is fair to say that while you were
under the weight of oppression, that it had the power to pull your mind into the depths of
desperation and hopelessness, and that there is quite a struggle within, even as you proceeded
forward with your calls, against that downward pull, a downward pull that has a powerful
reasoning at its core which says, "you will never get out of this." And as you face that
reasoning, you also feel the blackness of despair. But the amazing thing as always is the fact that
once the power of divine freedom is powerfully manifest in your 3rd eye and crown chakra areas,
that all of that pulling and tugging into blackness stops, and all of your attention is lifted up like a
thousand birds riding the updraft of a fountain of fragrant and illuminate air. 1/26/2001 |
| And therefore we proceed with our work
in
that familiar state of awe, marveling at the blessedness of the sacred fire that has been placed as a
flame within the fabric of your consciousness. 1/26/2001 | |
| This is the hallmark of the power of God,
i.e.
the power to reverse any degree or condition of human oppression, to set the soul free to pursue its
divine destiny. 1/26/2001 |
| Day #33 of the strength of many
mountains,
and #31 of the golden portal of the heart and the many divine cities revealed therein, and #27 of
the many many fires of celebration of the Glory of God. 1/26/2001 | |
| First (15) Michaels under weight of
oppression
again, very difficult to focus on the victory of God's will. The oppression forces your thought
patterns outward and away from the Light. The most popular idea is, "gee I'm uncomfortable,
let's quit." After the 15th repetition we succeeded in anchoring our attention within the desire to
invest all of our energies into the victory of God's will. At that point the oppression broke, and we
completed the rest of our Michaels in a generalized forcefield of illumination, that encompassed
our entire body to the last call. 1/26/2001 |
| This weight of oppression has a rationale
to it,
that binds the soul within it. It is a matter of untangling yourself from that rationale, and coming to
the conscious conclusion that in spite of all of the anti-reasoning, that there is no reason under the
sun not to devote the totality of your being to the victory of God's will. Once you finally establish
that at the center of your attention, then you can pour yourself into it, and that is when the
oppression lifts, and the inner world becomes illuminated, and the calls from that point onward
proceed forward in great delight. 1/26/2001 | |
| No doubt that the calls to Archangel
Michael
and his response to them is what sets the soul free from that tangle of justification associated with
the weight of oppression, so that you become literally free to form the idea of victory, and then to
pour all of your being into it. 1/26/2001 |
| Took a break, interacted with family
members, came back to our violet flame calls, and faced another heavy burden of oppression
which lasted from about half of the 15 minute session, until it was broken, and we were again
free to pour our attention into the victory of God/s will. 1/26/2001 | |
| No matter how many times it happens, we
never cease to marvel at this condition of freedom, especially when it is set against the backdrop of
that stifling tugging oppressive weight upon the mind and feeling world that we were formerly
struggling with. 1/26/2001 |
| We were lifted up in a forward moving
updraft of sacred fire that carried us through the entire 20.12 (Ratification of the Judgment of
Helios) in a state of shear happiness and delight. 1/26/2001 | |
| Sacred fire of freedom appears in the 3rd
eye
area during our next set of (20) Hail Marys. 1/26/2001 |
| While under the weight of oppression, it is
more definitely obscured, hidden, and actually invisible, however, the sense of appreciation for the
preciousness of the opportunity to have the knowledge of the science of the spoken word is clearly
alive within me now. 1/26/2001 | |
| We were able to cruise through the
remainder
of our calls (about 30 minutes) with the glow of sacred fire in our crown chakra area appearing
during our 7.21 decree, and growing more tangible as we proceeded onward. 1/26/2001 |
| Please Sanat Kumara expand my capacity
to
be devoted to the victory of God's infinite goodness across the entire planetary body. [note
recorded in bedroom]. 1/27/2001 | |
| Because the level of fear in the
subconscious
of the Communist leadership is absolute, for they both hate and fear God with a purity that is the
hallmark of absolute evil, their desire for total control is also absolute. This fact, hidden under the
surface is the Achilles heal of those champions of the free enterprise system in West who
erroneously believe that the loosening of economic controls in Red China, i.e. the introduction of
some free market principles, will eventually lead to political freedom, i.e. democracy. It won't.
Actually, the introduction of some free market practices only reflects a pragmatic [and temporary]
revision of the Communist equation of power. The Communist leadership in China saw that the
Soviet Union, with its centrally controlled command economy, with access to tremendous natural
resources, could not, in a period of 70 years, bring itself to a point of viable competition with
West, especially in terms of high technology, the currency of power in the 21st century. They
saw clearly that if they were ever to rise to a level of economic power that could challenge both the
Western and Asian democracies, they would have to introduce free market principles in their
economy. But even though this has produced positive economic results for the Chinese economy,
the Communist leadership will never be comfortable with it, because they do not know how it
works. In other words, they are ignorant of how it works, and that ignorance has magnified their
fear. One might say that a fragile equilibrium exists between this added dimension of fear, and the
satisfaction they derive from the positive economic results which have allowed then to build up
their military forces adding many new high technology weapons systems. Not withstanding this
fragile equilibrium, or perhaps because of it, they are much more sensitive to challenges to their
power than would otherwise be the case. What this means is that they will be far more likely to act
swiftly to crush anything that appears to challenge their power. In fact, human rights abuses have
become worse during the period of time in which economic development and international trade
have become most pronounced. One example is the bloody crackdown on the Tiananmen Square
democracy demonstrators in 1989, and more recently, and much more irrational, was the crack
down on the Falon Gong religious movement. [note recorded in office]. 1/27/2001 |
| As we were doing our footprint
transcriptions
we finally had a clear inspiration on how to improve the layout of the footprints title box. This is
significant, because have spent nearly 2 months without such inspirations, which effectively barred
us from working on the infrastructure of the HB-Journal web site. Now we have two specific
blueprints for the design of two gif images to replace the "recent" and "background" buttons that
currently reside in the title box area. All four wheels of the vehicle of being are beginning to touch
the highway once again. 1/27/2001 | |
| The wall of human inertia begins to break
with
the appearance of the power of divine freedom on the 3rd repetition of (15) Tubes of Light,
expanding through the 15th repetition as a mighty glow of forward movement at the 3rd eye
chakra area. 1/27/2001 |
| Beloved Sanat Kumara and Lady Master
Venus, please help me to become more devoted to the victory of God's infinite goodness across
the entire planetary body. 1/27/2001 | |
| In the midst of our main preamble and
inserts,
we note that the goal is clearly before us, that we desire to walk the earth fully cognizant of God's
infinite goodness at all times and under all circumstances. 1/27/2001 |
| Day #35 of the strength of many
mountains,
and #33 of the golden portal of the heart and the many divine cities revealed therein, and #29 of
the many many fires of celebration of the glory of God. 1/27/2001 | |
| As we repeat the forgoing prayer,
"Beloved
Sanat Kumara and Lady Master Venus, please help me to become more devoted to the victory of
God's infinite goodness across the entire planetary body", we perceive that the knowledge of the
infinite goodness of God extends out from the heart impressing upon the fabric of the soul's
awareness the dynamic movement of a thousand golden angelic pens attesting to this profound
truth. 1/27/2001 |
| In fact, I must note that the tangibility of
this
reality and the constancy of it represents a marked increase in what we have been able to perceive
before, and I think it must be due to the Master's response which is given even as the prayer is
being said. And that of course is quite an incentive to say that prayer a lot. 1/27/2001 | |
| It is the paradise of my dreams
... 1/27/2001 |
| After struggling through the first (15)
Michaels, a soft diffused glow of sacred fire freedom appears at the third eye, making the
remaining repetitions (30x), effortless, and more productive in our effort to hold fast to the desire
for the victory of God's will. Even so, even with that sacred fire glow in the 3rd eye area, which
makes the decree work a delight, it is still difficult to hold fast to that desire. 1/27/2001 | |
| As you repeat the aforementioned prayer,
"Beloved Sanat Kumara and Lady Master Venus, please help me to become more devoted to the
victory of God's infinite goodness across the entire planetary body," it is clear that you are asking
to be take into a region of great passion, a passion born of a direct and personal and intimate
revelation within the sphere of the heart, of various aspects and dimensions of that goodness, of
that glory, of that love. 1/27/2001 |
|
It is very important to observe that you would never be taken into that region of awareness without
asking. 1/27/2001 | |
| Entering into our next set of Hail Marys,
with
the intense desire to roll up our sleeves, jump into the fray, and work shoulder to shoulder as it
were with Mother Mary in bringing forth the victory of God's will, a new dimension of passion
extending from the heart is revealed. 1/27/2001 |
| The vision of God's infinite goodness is so
precious. It is a vision of the heart. And the whole world is embraced by it. 1/27/2001 | |
| It is God's will for you to see what is, and
God's infinite goodness is certainly one of the most fundamental aspects of what
is. 1/27/2001 |
| A good amount of success in focusing on
the
victory of God's will during the violet flame session. (15 minutes). The first part of success is to
hold the thoughtform. The second part of success is to feel a longing for the victory of God's will.
The third part of success is to register the fact, however faintly, that the victory of God's will
means the victory of your own personal realization of God's infinite love for you personally, which
instantly amplifies the intensity of your longing for that victory. 1/27/2001 | |
| Approaching the next set of (15) Hail
Marys in
the same manner as above, again that passion of the heart emerges, and a new dimension of sacred
fire peace appears in the 3rd eye area, along with the clearest perception that all of the Ascended
Masters have this perception of God's infinite goodness in common. It is the common ground
upon which all the hierarchies of heaven stand. 1/27/2001 |
| If you have this vision of God's infinite
goodness, i.e. permanently, i.e. constantly, i.e. without interruption, what could possibly draw a
soul away from its service to God's plan and purpose? Some how the vision would have to be
take away first, before the soul could be persuaded to leave that service. 1/27/2001 | |
| And if you have that vision, what else
could
you possibly manifest in your life but some portion of that goodness? 1/27/2001 |
| We got to spend the entire 20.12 decree
matrix (Ratification of the Judgment of Helios, including 20.07 Judgment calls, 20.09 Dweller
calls, and .30 Solar Ring calls), in a forcefield of flaming brightness, completely and thoroughly
permeated through and through by glowing brightness, dancing flames, sacred fire loveliness and
delight. 1/27/2001 | |
| The most blessed, precious, penetrating
purity
of sacred fire whiteness appears deep within the fabric of my mind during Astreas (3x), so close,
and so friendly. 1/27/2001 |
| A most blessed glow of sacred fire
goodness
rests upon our crown chakra during I Seek Thee calls, (50.04, 3x), like unto sparkling
diamonds. 1/27/2001 | |
| The most blessed gigantic hug wells up
within
me for our Beloved Mother Mary during Healing calls. Above all else, this is the most blessed
condition of being, these monumental hugs that well up from deep inside of you, whether they are
directed at God, or a Master, there is nothing more precious than that
embrace. 1/27/2001 |
| Absolutely maximize what the Master can
do
with the Call. We are getting good at this with our (3x) Hail Marys which are interspersed
between the other (3x) decrees at the latter part of the decree service. 1/27/2001 | |
| During our I Am Light calls (3x), we felt
like
we were boosted up on top of this fountain of light to where we could peek into the etheric octave
where I could see everybody, and everybody could see me ... oops .... not quite ready for that ...
Though that will have quite a lasting impression, and I suppose that was the reason behind it.
1/27/2001 |
| At some point the soul will be given a no
frills
vision of what is, i.e. no veil to diffuse into soft and cuddly impressions what lies
beyond. 1/27/2001 | |
| Well, speaking of what the human
imagination
isn't capable of ... a color portrait of Mother Mary is displayed across the screen of my mind
during our last (3x) set of Hail Marys. 1/27/2001 |
| That was clearly one of the most blessed
decree services we have ever had. 1/27/2001 | |
Daily Prayers in the U.S. House
January 29,
2001 | Daily Prayers in the U.S. Senate
January 29, 2001 | | U.S. House not in
session today | The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered
the following prayer:
Let us pray.
Dear God, You constantly are seeking us. Our desire to pray arises in
our hearts because You want to love, guide, inspire, and empower us. The greatest gift we can
receive in this time of prayer is more of You. Whatever else You give or withhold is to draw us
closer to You.
In our world of politics, so often the question is, ``Who gets the glory?''
We confess that often we become obsessed by concern over whether we have been recognized for
our abilities or rewarded for our accomplishments. Your admonition to us through Jeremiah helps
us order our priorities. ``Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, let not the mighty man glory in
his might, nor let the rich man glory in his riches, but let him who glories glory in this, that he
understands and knows Me, that
I am the Lord, exercising loving kindness, judgment, and righteousness in the earth. For in these I
delight.''--Jeremiah 9:23-24.
We dedicate this new week to delight in what delights You. You are the
only One we want to please. You are our heart's delight!
Amen. |
|
| | a.m. decree service in backyard |
The power
of sacred fire freedom appears during the last 10 minutes of our 30 minute violet flame session.
[note recorded in
bedroom]. 1/29/2001 |
| Every spoke word has power either to
enslave
or to set free. [note recorded in
office]. 1/29/2001 | |
| I just wanted to make note of the fact that
we
sat down to do our journal transcriptions for the footprints section [1-2-2001 to 1-5-2001] we
were under a very uncomfortable cloud of oppression and inertia, our mind and fingers trying to
move amidst this grotesque sludge of astral opposition. About 20 minutes into the endeavor we
have been elevated into a beautiful and peaceful glow of divine freedom. [note recorded in office].
1/29/2001 |
| p.m. decree service in
sanctuary |
Very heavy
oppression upon us as we begin our Tubes of Light. A thick blanket of human inertia. The light
of divine freedom begins to dawn in the crown area on the 3rd repetition. But we carry a heavy
weight focused on the spine just below the heart throughout the rest of the 15
repetitions. 1/29/2001 | |
| I would like to note that one on level there
is
divine freedom that we can touch with the fabric of our awareness, but at the same time this heavy
oppression pulls us down, and clouds most of the mind with a sensation of blockage, stagnation,
impenetrable, and thoroughly clogged. 1/29/2001 |
| Thank God for good strong habit patterns
which allow us to move forward anyway, regardless of this weight, though it is like trying to run
through a swamp. 1/29/2001 | |
| It is an interesting exercise moving through
your affirmations of previously revealed point of divine knowledge, and doing so against the
reverse current of this wall of darkness. The light of previous experience actually illuminates the
immediate vicinity, providing an envelope of light that cuts through the darkness, and allows you to
pick some speed and momentum. 1/29/2001 |
| The weight upon the spine is more tangible
than ever before. All the weight that presses down upon us overall appears to have its most intense
focus on the spine, at that point just below the heart. 1/29/2001 | |
| You cannot think it away, or wish it away.
Though there is no doubt we could dodge it if we left the altar. But dodging it and transmuting it
are two different matters. 1/29/2001 |
| The first real relief from this burden came
on
the 3rd repetition of (45) Michaels. The power of sacred fire freedom appeared in the 3rd eye
area, and by the 15th repetition the burden on the spine was reduced by 90%. We got to spend
the last 30 repetitions looking into that sacred fire glow in the 3rd eye area, and with a general
updraft condition restored to our whole being. Though 5% to 10% of the former weight still
remains pressing down on the spine. 1/29/2001 | |
| That violet flame session (15 minutes) was
characterized by a steady weight upon the spine and the mind weighed down by a steady weight
and density. We did not break through it. We simply carried it. 1/29/2001 |
| And we carried it nearly to the end of the
decree service, where it just gradually faded away, leaving us with the conclusion that this was
overall a very difficult decree service. 1/29/2001 | |
Daily Prayers in the U.S. House
January 30,
2001 | Daily Prayers in the U.S. Senate
January 30, 2001 | The
Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the following prayer:
With the psalmist we pray: ``O Lord open my lips and my mouth will
declare Your praise.''
Even before the first word is formulated, Lord, guide our minds, our
thoughts, our hearts and desires. By Your Holy Spirit, breathe into us a new spirit. Shape this
Congress and our world according to Your design that we may fulfill Your holy will.
Give us the gift of attentive hearts and open minds, that through the
diversity of ideas, we may sort out what is best for this Nation. Let us not be afraid of silence; that
even before we speak, we may heed Your revealed Word with longing.
May our speech be deliberately free of all prejudice that others may
listen wholeheartedly. Then our dialogue will be mutually respectful, surprising even us with unity
and justice. And our words as well as our lives will give You praise now and forever. Amen.
| The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following
prayer:
Omnipresent Lord God, there is no place we can go where You have
not been there waiting for us; there is no relationship in which You have not been seeking to bless
the people with whom we are involved; there is no task You have given us to do that You are not
present to help us accomplish. We need not ask to come into Your presence; Your presence with
us creates the desire to pray. You delight in guiding us to pray for what You are more ready to
give than we may be prepared to ask.
You are here. We do not need to convince You to bless this Senate.
You have shown us how much You love and care for the United States of America. You want the
very best for this beloved Nation and have chosen the Senators through whom you want to work
to accomplish Your plans. Help them to see themselves as Your agents. Bless them with Your
power. Keep them fit physically, secure emotionally, and alert spiritually. So much depends on
their trust in You and pursuit of Your guidance. May awe and
wonder capture them as they realize all You have put at their disposal to ensure that they succeed.
Thank You for the biblical assurance that You work all things together for those who love You,
who are called according to Your purpose. You are our Lord and Saviour.
Amen. |
|
| Again we face the task of transcribing our
journal entries (from 1-5-2001) for the footprints section of the HB-Journal in that mindset of
human inertia, feeling even the sharp teeth of skepticism and even cynicism with which that beast
regards anything of a divine nature. But as we allow the words to flow through our fingers and
allow ourself to be carried back to the events described, we know that they are honest descriptions
of the appearance of divine power, and again as we type, we merge with that power and we are
greatly comforted, and elevated, and in a most profound condition of relief at the appearance of
the freedom of the sacred fire within the fabric of our awareness as we work. [note recorded in
office]. 1/30/2001 |
| We hope that, God willing, that those who
read these words will be allowed to experience some of that same sacred fire power, and thus be
given a renewed inspiration to hold fast to their own altar work, standing fast, until that day comes
for them that the experience of the sacred fire at the altar becomes a daily repeatable reality, clearly
marking the golden pathway for the return of the evolutions of earth into the arms of God. [note
recorded in office]. 1/30/2001 | |
| Clearly, when given the clear choice, the
soul
would much rather live in this blessed forcefield of sacred fire, characterized by the soft
continuous updraft of comfort and delight, than to remain trapped under the oppressive weight of
the astral plane. [note recorded in
office]. 1/30/2001 |
| Unfortunately, it takes some effort, and
that
effort is made before the altar of God, to establish that forcefield. I say "unfortunately", because if
it were easier to establish, more people would live within it. But that is the price we pay for
allowing the energies of our lifestream to merge with the density of the astral plane. Breaking free
requires the establishment of a counterforce, and because the power of the counterforce has to be
built up, or should I say ramped up in intensity, the ramping up process typically taking some time
before it reaches the level of intensity necessary to sweep aside the density, the soul must therefore
reside in that region of transition where the war between the Light and the darkness is taking place
at a cellular level, and that war is always uncomfortable, and oppressive. [note recorded in
office] 1/30/2001 | |
| But once the soul breaks into the Light, the
reward of the Light itself is all the reward the soul requires, for the Light is paradise, i.e. when the
soul is merged with it. [note recorded in
office]. 1/30/2001 |
| p.m. decree service in
sanctuary |
Parenthetically, I want to note that the
power of the sacred fire that blossomed within my mind as we sat at the computer keyboard
transcribing the footprint entries is clearly reminiscent of those
instances of divine intercession when were working on defending our church membership, and this
serves as another clear indication that we were on the right track in that regard. 1/30/2001 | |
| Presence of sacred fire peace upon the
brow
during all (10) repetitions of our Tubes of Light. 1/30/2001 |
| New dimension of sacred fire peace in the
crown chakra area during our first set of (15) Hail Marys. 1/30/2001 | |
| Day #37 of the strength of many
mountains,
and #35 of the golden portal of the heart and the many divine cities revealed therein, and #31 of
the many many fires of celebration of the glory of God. 1/30/2001 |
| The victory of God's infinite goodness
across
the entire planetary body, this is a veritable treasure of awareness. There is no question about it.
You can clearly sense the glorious preciousness of it in your 3rd eye chakra. It is right there,
spread across our brow like a magical tapestry. 1/30/2001 | |
| During our (12) 30.08 calls (Covenant of
the
Magi), the most blessed ambiance of peace centered at the 3rd eye, but extending as a uniform
radiance throughout our entire being. 1/30/2001 |
| Took a break to the bathroom, stopped to
say
hi to the cat, and as we returned we notice how far away we have drifted from that mode of
awareness just recorded. 1/30/2001 | |
| Some day we will have the mastery to
carry
that awareness with us outside of the sanctuary, and I think that it will take, for starters, a very
strong determination to achieve it. 1/30/2001 |
| A glow of sacred fire peace in the 3rd eye
chakra on our 3rd of 45 Michaels, much expanded on the 9th repetition. As we tried our best to
focus on the victory of God's will from then on, a light burden upon the spine emerged, not
anywhere near the heaviness of yesterday, but enough to make the difference between flying, and
marching, albeit with some enthusiasm, on a muddy road. The road was solid enough, but the
going was slow. 1/30/2001 | |
| Yesterday we were looking through such a
thick cloud of oppression that when we looked forward to the pearl commentary work that we had
to do, we felt only a very strong desire to avoid it. And we did avoid it. Today however, we look
forward to that same work, and we feel like we would enjoy doing it. 1/30/2001 |
| Here's another difference we note from
yesterday as we set our mind to do our next set of Hail Marys. Clearly before us at this point is
the imperative to give the call in a manner that will maximize what the Master can do with it. This
need, this imperative is so obvious. We can see clearly that we are going to spend the time to give
these calls. We can see out ahead of ourself, and we can clearly see that. Since we are going to
be here anyway, we can see that it makes sense to give 100% of ourself to the call. Anything less
would be foolish. So, roll up your sleeves, and go to work shoulder to shoulder with Mother Mary
to bring about the greatest possible victory for God's will across the entire planetary body.
Yesterday we could not get within a thousand miles of that mindset, no, not even one of the many
times we gave our Hail Marys that day. This sheds some light on the real differences between the
capabilities of the soul when it is entangled in a web of human inertia and oppression, as compared
to the potential of the soul which has merged with the sacred fire of freedom. 1/30/2001 | |
| As we concentrated on pouring all of our
being into the victory of God's will during this set of Hail Marys  (15x), the image of an Egyptian Sphinx
coalesced in our mind's eye. What is that all about? I am thinking that this has some association
with the Ascension Temple at Luxor. 1/30/2001 |
| A most blessed presence of sacred fire
peace in the third eye area during our 40.06 purity calls (3x). 1/30/2001 | |
| A new dimension of sacred fire
friendliness in the 3rd eye during our Great Divine Director (10.08) calls (3x). The joy of
greeting a dear friend
for even a few moments. 1/30/2001 |
| A most blessed presence of sacred fire
peace
and comfort instantly as we enter into our Healing calls (3x). Enfolds the entire mind. All things
are at a blessed rest amidst this glow. 1/30/2001 | |
| Whenever the sacred fire appears within
the
temple of being, I have to bear witness to it. I don't know how God does it, but each new flush of
divine reality in this regard strikes the soul as the very essence of preciousness. You cannot get
bored with it. I think this is because the sacred fire is so naturally full of glad tidings and profound
implications, even though the soul cannot grasp but a tiny bit of those
implications. 1/30/2001 |
| Perhaps that might explain some of it, in as
much as each new flush of sacred fire reality is like the appearance of a brand new fruit orchard
stretching as far as the eye can see with every tree chocked full of the most incredibly delicious
fruit. The soul can sense the fragrance of each vast orchard as it appears, but can only nibble, to
its great delight nevertheless, on just one or maybe two pieces of fruit from just one of the closest
trees. 1/30/2001 | |
| How about this for a concrete visualization
to
accompany your effort to focus on working with Mother Mary for the victory of God's will during
the Hail Mary calls. You could visualize yourself standing shoulder to shoulder with her over a big
crate of potatoes. As soon as the call begins, you jump into the scene shoulder to shoulder with
the Master, and start peeling as many potatoes as you can in the time allotted. Each of the peeled
potatoes is a symbol for the victory of God's will. After all, as I have mentioned before, that God
so loved the world that he made himself into a potato (paraphrasing). 1/30/2001 |
| I think that works pretty good. You can
visualize her hands and your hands in this fantastic blur of rapid activity, with a shower of
perfectly peeled potatoes flying out in all directions. Of course there are shining angels standing by
with their wicker baskets to catch all of these potatoes. As their baskets fill up, they then carry
them off to feed the souls of God's children throughout all the cities of the earth. This works well
for both the (3x) calls and the (15x) calls. You can manifest quite a strong sense of intensity rather
quickly primarily because the visualization is so easy. Remember to keep the thoughtform of the
victory of God's will framing this scene as you give the call. 1/30/2001 | |
Daily Prayers in the U.S. House
January 31,
2001 | Daily Prayers in the U.S. Senate
January 31, 2001 | Chaplain Steven Colwell, Army Reserve Readiness Training
Center, Fort McCoy, Wisconsin, offered the following prayer:
Our most gracious Heavenly Father, we thank You for giving us this
day, another day of life for us to cherish Your goodness and Your majesty. May we use this day
seeking Truth and in so doing return it as our gift to You.
O Lord, bless these gathered here with Your wisdom. Guard them and
guide them, O Father, and fill them with Your Presence. Bless their families and the staffs that
labor by their side in government. May the laws enacted here conform to the Great Law that
emanates from Your righteousness. I beseech You, Lord, to hear this prayer, prayed by a simple
soldier, offered to You in the Name of the Prince of Peace. Amen. | The
Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following prayer:
God, our help in ages past and our hope for years to come, we thank
You for our Constitution and the stability and strength it has provided for our beloved Nation.
Today, we gratefully remember the life and leadership of Gouverneur Morris, born on this day in
1752. We prayerfully recall that he was the writer of the final draft of the Constitution, the head of
the Committee on Style, and the originator of the phrase, ``We the people of the United States.''
Thank You for the impact of Mr. Morris, who at the age of thirty-five
became a member of the Continental Congress and spoke 173 times during the Constitutional
debates, more than any other delegate. We honor his memory, not just for the quantity of his
words but for their quality. In particular, we are moved by his conviction about You. ``There is
one Comforter,'' he said ``who weighs our Minutes and Numbers out our Days.'' About the
importance of a strong faith in You he said, ``Religion is
the only solid basis of good morals; therefore education should teach the precepts of religion, and
the duties of man toward God.'' May we never forget that ``morality is truth in full bloom.'' Father,
keep America rooted in Your moral absolutes. You are our Judge and Redeemer.
Amen. |

| We've been up now for an hour and fifty
minutes, and I need to report that even though we have found it relatively easy to think about te
victory of God's will throughout our sunbath decrees (using our potato peeling visualizations),
making our bed, and bathroom chores, that not once did the reality of sacred fire appear within the
fabric of my awareness, though I must say that a mocking bird tweeted, twirped, warbled and sang
continuously through 15 minutes of violet flame, giving me the impression that he was trying to
decree along with me. This was out in the back yard. [note recorded in
bedroom]. 1/31/2001 |
| I need to report that our world is aglow
with
that sacred fire glow as we proceed forward with our journal transcriptions for the footprint
section of HB-Journal. Specifically as we re-enter the experiences and observations of January
10, 2001. [note recorded in
office]. 1/31/2001 | |
| Appearance of the sacred fire on the first
of
(12) Tubes of Light, expanding to a prominent glow upon the brow at the 12th
repetition. 1/31/2001 |
| Day #38 of the strength of many
mountains,
and #36 of the golden portal of the heart and the many divine cities revealed therein, and #32 of
the many many fires of celebration of the glory of God. 1/31/2001 | |
| As we enter into our 30.08 calls we call for
the
victory of God's infinite goodness across the entire planetary body, and we have impressed upon
our 3rd eye the image of the earth embraced in a cloud of goodness composed of what appears to
be the fragrant petals of many kind of flowers of many colors. 1/31/2001 |
| We spent the totality of our 30.08 calls
(12x),
with a glow of sacred fire peace at the 3rd eye area and a nearly continuous focus on that vision of
God's infinite goodness enfolding the entire planet. It amazes me to contemplate that this would
be the constant vision of the Master El Morya, which gives me a whole new way of relating to
him. The Master with the bright vision of God's infinite goodness. Thank you for sharing it with
me. I can reach out with my heart and grasp the hand of the Master with the deepest gratitude as
we both gaze out over this scene of God's glory. 1/31/2001 | |
| We are reading Mother Mary's pearl of
wisdom, Vol. 28, No. 1, January 6, 1985 during this service. We are reading one page between
each major decree matrix. 1/31/2001 |
| At the end of the first 15 of 45 Michael
decrees, a glowing pool/ring of sacred fire appears at the crown area. It is circular and integrated
with the fabric of our awareness, i.e. it is part of me. And it remained at the forefront of our
awareness during the remaining 30 repetitions. Glowing, uplifting, and clearing the way for the
flow of the word without any opposition whatsoever. 1/31/2001 | |
| During a quick bathroom break we kept up
a
steady call to Archangel Michael (Lord Michael before, Lord Michael Behind, Lord Michael to
the right, Lord Michael to the left, Lord Michael above, Lord Michael below, Lord Michael, Lord
Michael wherever we go, I am his love protecting here, I am his love protecting here, I am his love
protecting here) and we noticed that the previously mentioned vision of God's infinite goodness
rested lightly upon our brow throughout, though we had no encounters that required us to stop and
engage our mind along another path. 1/31/2001 |
| We note that when we engage our
previously
described potato peeling scenario (link) during our (15) Hail Marys, this allows the intensity of
desire to be raised, and that the heart center comes to the forefront of awareness. Again, each
potato perfectly peeled is a symbol for the victory of God's will. Easy to
visualize. 1/31/2001 | |
| We spent the totality of our 15 minute
violet
flame session in a state of even, uniform, sacred fire glow with the highlight at the 3rd eye,
notwithstanding the fact that we had to wrestle with a dimension of the dweller on the threshold
that was awakened by the intensity of this pearl of wisdom. This writhing creature emerge from
our subconscious that wants to throw up our hands in frustration. Imagine that. Well, we held the
line and we will hold the line of our service. 1/31/2001 |
| A new dimension of sacred fire peace in
the
third eye area during our next set of (25) Hail Marys. 1/31/2001 | |
| A blessed forcefield of rock solid
equanimity
and tranquility, crystal clear and thoroughly comforting, during our .30 Solar Ring calls (end of the
20.12 matrix). 1/31/2001 |
| Blessed sacred fire purity embraces my
mind
during the 40.06 purity decrees (3x). 1/31/2001 | |
| Took a break to bring in, and put away the
groceries, returning to our Astreas (5x), our mind becomes suffused with an emerald green sacred
fire spaciousness that appears to extend from the heart. 1/31/2001 |
| An impression of a beautiful maiden just
beyond the veil, though her identity penetrates through it, just as we open our mouth to give our
next set of Hail Marys (3x). On "Hail". 1/31/2001 | |
