Could One Person
Have Made the
Difference?
By Steven S. Showers, Editor
     Could one person have made the difference in the battle for democracy and freedom in Communist China in 1989? I believe so. But, unfortunately, that is not what happened. That great historic event left us with an example of the failure that ensues, when the individual does not comprehend his own significance, and runs from the field of battle. Consider this famous image.
     At the height of the June 1989 standoff between the pro-democracy demonstrators in Tiananmen Square, and the Communist leadership, the People's Liberation Army was ordered into the city center, and that included the movement of tank columns towards the central square, to surround it, to box in the demonstrators, and to intimidate and to terrorize the population in general.

     The entire world was transfixed as this one lone city resident walked across the street in front of these tanks, and instead of scurrying out of the way, for danger of getting run over, to everyone's complete surprise, he stopped, and the tank column pulled to an abrupt halt. The television cameras of the world were focused on this one scene, it was broadcast live throughout the world, as it was in sight of the building in which many of the foreign television journalists were stationed.

     One soul holding back four tanks, symbolizing the Child of God, standing in opposition to the rebellion (4 o'clock line) of the fallen ones. This one soul can never retreat. If he does, the tanks roll forward, and the destruction wrought, will be blood on his own hands, for this is the truth, that the Master tapped this soul on the shoulder, and said to him, take your place at the point of the spear. To this end, you were born into the world. Stand fast. Don't retreat. This seed of courage can grow into a mighty Tree of Liberty.

     And this standoff continued for quite some time. I believe it could have been as much as ten minutes, or 15 minutes, perhaps 20 minutes at the outside. But no matter how long the person stood in front of these tanks, it was not long enough.

     I believe everyone around the world sat on the edge of their seats, knowing that this was a pivotal event in the history of China, and the history of the world. In the end, some people on the sidewalk ran out in the street, and pulled him away. Pulling him away for his own safety. And he allowed himself to be pulled away. Clearly he ran off the street under his own power. All he needed was that little tug of fear from his "friends" and his destiny was turned upside down. And so, what could have been an example to the world, of what one man can do to ignite the passion for freedom in the hearts of millions, instead, we got an example of how one man, when standing in front of four tanks, in the end, would rather save his own life, than to sacrifice it, for the victory of the freedom of his countrymen.

     What was the most likely scenario? If that one person would have stood his ground, he might have drawn others to his side. Perhaps at first, only one person would have joined him. But in seeing two, the others still standing on the sidewalk, will feel the fire of honor pulling upon their hearts. And then, perhaps, three, then four, then ten, twenty, thirty, and finally all of the people on the surrounding streets could have been inspired by this example to pour off the sidewalks, and out into the street as well, to stand in front of those tanks with their brothers and sisters.

      If the tanks would have backed off, which was possible, what a vision of victory that would have given the people of China! What a magnificent boost would have been given to the cause of freedom thereby. But, short of that, even if the tanks opened fire, and cut down those people in front of the cameras of the world, the beast would have been exposed, causing the uprising of millions, leading to the ultimate freedom of the entire China Mainland. What a great and magnificent sacrifice this could have been, but it was not, because one person, one person, decided that his own personal safety was more important than anything else at that moment. So sad.

     Let our endeavors end on a happier note.

"I Am Leading All Men Away from Temptation."
"I Am Delivering All Men from Every Evil Condition."
By Steven S. Showers, Editor

     In the course of exposing the use of naked children on Monique's Gulick's website, "The Darjeeling Report," (see July 2004 issue of this Journal), I went in search of a possible theory that could explain how the morals of our community could have been compromised to the extent that would allow these children to be photographed, and those photographs published on a church related website, and for the community as a whole to say, "Ho hum." In the course of that article, I offered up the Naked Chakra Man as a possible predicate for the corruption of our community morals. I have since come into the possession of additional information that reveals the fact, that indeed, this Naked Chakra Man is, without a doubt, a focal point for the entry of a river of corruption into this community. Moreover, in my research into this issue, I have discovered that this factor of corruption could have played a significant role in Sean Prophet's betrayal of the Messenger, the Masters, the Church and the Teaching. Full details are included in the article below.

     This image was published in our Church Newsletter, Heart to Heart, in the March-April 2004 issue. This was an example of an image which is being distributed by church staff, along with articles on the Teachings of the Ascended Masters, to outside publishing houses. Of course, the Naked Chakra Man is being produced in many media forms for use by the members of our organization, beginning with a large poster, and other products that I will mention later.

     What I am about to reveal here was unknown to me at the time I wrote the original article. I can report to you now, that what I have found out proves that a huge error has been committed, that indeed, it is an error of sufficient dimension, that it has poisoned the minds of the whole community.   Yes, it has indeed poisoned the minds of the whole community. 

     I think that the surprising thing about this, is that this information is easily available on the Internet.  Of course, when the idea was plucked out of the mind of someone, to use Michelangelo's David as the model for this Naked Chakra Man, which was, as far as I can tell, in the early 1990's, there was no Internet.  But, the information was nevertheless dynamically alive in the culture, and globally so. In other words, it was, what it was, back then, across the entire planet, but I admit that for a member of this church to have come into contact with it, would have taken some effort, because the information exists inside a community that we do not have contact with, as a general rule.

Michelangelo's David
Universal Icon and Magnet
for Homosexual Lust Over
Five Centuries.
     Michelangelo's David has been a symbol, a target, and a magnet, for the lusts of homosexuals, from the very beginning.  That's right.  Let me say that again. Michelangelo's David has been a symbol, a target, and a magnet, for the lusts of homosexuals, from the very beginning. 

     In fact, when you read the history of the time of Michelangelo himself, you will see that the city for which this statue was commissioned, Florence, Italy, was a literal hotbed of homosexual activity.  And of course, as you might imagine, the artist Michelangelo is claimed, by the homosexual community, as a homosexual himself.  Whether that is true, or not, is not a significant part of the equation.  After all, because homosexuals have no sense of self-respect, they desperately cling to various icons, in order to associate themselves with focal points that will help them feel better about who they are, and so, they have made some outrageous claims in this regard, for example, claiming Abraham Lincoln as one of their own, and even the composer Handel.  That is absurd.  And their claim of Michelangelo as one of their own might be just as absurd.  But the circumstantial evidence does point more strongly in that direction when it comes to Michelangelo.  Especially when you consider his passion for using every opportunity to expose male private parts to public view. 

     But this is one thing that we know for sure. Michelangelo's depiction of David, with exposed buttocks and genitals, was not inspired in heaven, not inspired in his heart, but rather out of the darker side of who he was.   He used his great God-Given talents in the service of darkness.  Surprise.  As if artists are not known for doing just that, pushing the envelope in every possible way, for what purpose?  Just so they can.  This is pride, that does not recognize the source of the gift, and not recognizing the source of the gift, will not feel constrained to use the gift in alignment with the purposes of the original author, who is God Our Father.  The prideful ego says to itself, this is my talent, and I will do with it as I please. 

     As you can see, we have an example of that, close up, right in front of us, in the behavior of Linda Worobec herself. She is the artist, par excellence, musician extra ordinaire, highly revered, highly applauded, highly renowned, and when she wants to perform a Beatles' tune on the Altar, that is what she will do, and no one need make a peep, in as much as the whole world has always bent a grateful ear to the sweet melodies that issue forth from her perfect lips, and besides, at the very first appearance of her lofty desires, all the law books in heaven have been instantly rewritten to reflect the wisdom of her illustrious performance. So, just sit back and enjoy.   

     If Michelangelo really had a genuine love for Jesus Christ, (David was one of his embodiments), in a world ripe with the ferocity of homosexual lust, you would not expose the bare body of this Master to the lust of homosexuals for all future generations.  What, Jesus would want his body, to become a stumbling block for millions of people who are fighting against these tendencies for the survival of their own souls?  Never.  This is undeniably a point of Anti-Christ, clear and simple, trampling on the Golden Rule.  Would any (normal) man desire for his body to be exposed before the lusts of the homosexuality community for all future generations?  Absolutely not.  And so why did Michelangelo do it?  He did it because he was pushed to do it by forces of darkness beyond the perimeter of his own soul.

     Now, Michelangelo did several self-portraits.  But guess what?  He had his own clothes on every time.  He would never have wanted his own body exposed in that way.  But yet, he exposed the body of the Master Jesus Christ, in that way, for millions of homosexuals to gawk at, and drool over for nigh over 500 years now. 

     Pride and hypocrisy, they always go hand in hand.

     You might be able to argue that Michelangelo did not know that David was an incarnation of the Master Jesus.  It does not matter.  The angels knew this, and the angels spoke into his ear, don't do this Michelangelo, put some clothes on his body.  But Michelangelo said, to these angels, go fly a kite, I am the artist, I will do what I will do.  I want to depict these genitals. I want to depict these bare buttocks.  They are so pretty after all.  And that is what I will do.  Let the glory of these "private parts" be exposed for all the world to gawk at.

     And from that seed point of rebellion against the Christ, against the Law, a focal point, a rallying point, for homosexual lust was created for all future generations.

     And that is what we are talking about here.  For every homosexual on the planet, this is their icon.  Normal people are not aware of this, because their awareness is not embedded in the homosexual culture.  They don't have a clue.  But, the facts are the facts. This is part of the homosexual universe, and this is a universe of the most base rebellion, and hatred against God.   And when people look upon this statue, they are tuning into, at subconscious levels, this universe of rebellion.  They are entering into a figure eight flow with this universe of rebellion, and they are drawing the substance of that rebellion into their worlds.  And because of this, it is a point of deep corruption for any soul on the path.

     The image of Michelangelo's David focuses the entire planetary momentum of rebellion of the entire homosexual movement. This may seem like an outlandish statement to some readers, given that you were totally unaware of any connection whatsoever in this regard, just moments before.  But there is proof.  When you look at the proof, you will agree with my assessment, of this I am sure. 

The Evidence of
Michelangelo's David's
Homosexual Icon Status
     To get at this proof, we must enter, somewhat, into the world of homosexuality, and see this statue through the eyes of homosexuals. The Internet allows us to do this without much trouble now.  I would caution everyone, however, before proceeding, that they need to have their Archangel Michael armor on, or you will find yourself spending the next three months trying to wash these vibrations out of your mind and your soul.  This is a world that will be totally new to most all of you. It will be intensely repugnant.  But, to understand this issue, we must enter in.  Please take the time to look at each example, locate the excerpted text on the page, and get a feeling for the content of the whole page.  In this way, you will get a sense of exactly the kind of energy that homosexuals are sending into this statue. 

     Before proceeding I would ask each reader to go through this little ritual, which will only take a minute.  Visualize yourself standing on each line of the Cosmic Clock, beginning with the 12 o'clock line, and proceeding onward to each subsequent line, saying the names of all seven Archangels while standing on each line. For example, standing on the 12 o'clock line say, Archangel Michael, Jophiel, Chamuel, Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel, and Zadkiel, guard me please! Then, standing on the 1 o'clock line say, Archangel Michael, Jophiel, Chamuel, Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel, and Zadkiel, guard me please!  And repeat this for each additional line around the whole clock, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11. Then proceed with your review of these examples.

     The underlined bold faced phrase Example N, incorporates the link that will bring up the (locally stored) example page in your web browser.

     The first two examples are from "The Advocate, The National Gay and Lesbian News Magazine".  Both of these articles deal with homosexual culture from a historical perspective, and both make note of the completion of Michelangelo's David as a primary homosexual event. Both pages include photos of David, one from the front, and one from the back, showing you exactly what the homosexuals are interested in.

  Example 1 - The Advocate, Cover Story - Pride march of history - "Everything we claim as lesbian and gay culture today falls into the long parade of time—whether in step or, um, out"  [David is at Line 8]
 
 Example 2 - The Advocate, Online Exclusives - 3,000 years of queer eyes - "The impact of gay and lesbian visionaries on Western culture, from its edifices to its eye shadow, has always been immeasurable. A time line of just a few of these trendsetters BQE—Before Queer Eye" [David is at 1504]
     The next two examples are from WWW.GAYHEROES.COM.   The first example shows the Michelangelo page, where the artist is talked about as a hero of the homosexual culture.  Make note of what they say about his poetry.  The link to the sculpture page, which is example 4, reads, Meet a thirteen-foot-tall rock-hard naked man named David...
 Example 3 - "He didn't wash, slept in his studio alongside his work, and though he became wealthy, ate and dressed like a pauper and worked like a dog. His homosexuality and religious fervor generated great conflict within him, and one self-portrait shows him as the flayed skin of St. Bartholomew (above right)."
 
 Example 4 - "The rulers of Florence adopted the statue as a patriotic symbol of the strength of the Florentine Republic."
 
     The next example is from WWW.GAY-NEWS.COM.  This is an article that discusses several of the homosexual related fetishes.  Warning - This example contains a graphic example of homosexual pornography, and if you want to skip looking at the page, I would recommend that.  It is just too gross.  But, it gives you exactly the vibrational context within which Michelangelo's David resides within the homosexual universe.  I will quote the specific text here.
 Example 5 - Cute butts - "Pygophilia is the love of buttocks. Once I stuck a burning candle in the bum of a friend of mine. His gorgeous round buns glowed in even greater beauty. Jean-Luc Hennig wrote a "Brève historie des fesses" (1995), translated that same year as "The Rear View. A Brief and Elegant History of Bottoms Through the Ages". Only one chapter though is devoted to the male behind. The most well known but certainly not the most beautiful one is made of stone: the behind of Michelangelo`s David in Florence. For many a queer this is thé place for a buns love pilgrimage. Complete schools are gathering around David so the pygophilist can compare his marble behind with cute freshmen`s butts."
 
     The next example is from WWW.QUEERTHEORY.COM .  Here, the author is giving a review of  "The Bear Book : Readings in the History and Evolution of a Gay Male Subculture by Les K. Wright (Editor)".   The review begins with a reference to Michelangelo's David.
 Example 6 - "From Michelangelo's David to Calvin Klein's hunks in briefs, the cult of the beautiful male body has been at the heart of much of gay culture."
     The next two examples are from WWW.RAINBOWWAREHOUSE.COM .  They say, "Welcome to RainboWarehouse – the Internet’s fastest growing source for gay and lesbian shopping! We are 100% gay owned and operated. At RainboWarehouse, we provide superior service, competitive pricing, and quality merchandise for all your gay and lesbian shopping needs."  These two examples, respectively, illustrate the use of Michelangelo's David as a notecard, and as a refrigerator magnet.
  Example 7 - David and Me Notecard.
 
  Example 8 - Diva David Dress up Magnets.
     The next example is from WWW.GAYCHRISTIANONLINE.ORG Here we see the statue of Michelangelo's David displayed prominently at the center of the page in a large size, and one additional copy of the image lower down in the page.  Note that the large image serves as the entry point into the web site.  And smaller images of Michelangelo's David are used throughout the website.
  Example 9 - " ... if you think being gay is wrong, you may be surprised at what you find here."
     The next example is from WWW.OUTTRAVELER.NET .  This is an online publication targeted at the gay and lesbian community.  Here is an article about Michelangelo's David, that tries to sound civilized.
 Example 10 - "Giorgio Vasari, the gay artist and writer of Lives of the Most Excellent Painters, Sculptors, and Architects, wrote of the sculpture, “The grace of this figure and the serenity of its pose has never been surpassed.”
     The next examples are more David dress up magnets.  This is simply a vehicle for homosexuals to enter into a striptease mentality as they lust after each fresh and new peek at the private parts of David.
 Example 11 - Play Dress up - Click and Drag to put Clothes on David.
 
 Example 12 - Dress Me Up David - Classic.
 
 Example 13 - Dress Me Up David - Diva.
 
 Example 14 - Dress Me Up David - Love.
 
 Example 15 - Dress Me Up David - Santa.
 
 Example 16 - Dress Me Up David - Starter.
     The next example shows an advertisement for the book, "The Queer Encyclopedia of the Visual Arts, A glbtq Encyclopedia, Edited by Claude J. Summers, The first comprehensive, authoritative queer guide to the visual arts."  (glbtq = gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, queer).
 Example 17 - "A distinctly queer presence permeates the history of the visual arts—from Michelangelo's David and homoerotic images on ancient Greek vases to Frida Kahlo's self-portraits and the photography of Claude Cahun and Robert Mapplethorpe."
     The next example is from QUEER CONSTRUCTION, an article entitled, "Becoming David", which includes a graphic reproduction of the statue.
 Example 18 - "This is Michelangelo’s most famous sculpture, the David. It’s important to us gay fellas because this piece, more than any other in the public’s consciousness, marks a return to the ideals of absolute beauty of Antiquity. David is an icon of the male form. He is what a man should look like. He is what the men in our culture strive to become."
     The next example is from http://WWW.THAIGUYS.ORG, a homosexual's guide to Thailand.  In the midst of the article, the icon status of Michelangelo's David is testified to again:
 Example 19 - "On entering this a palace of lights you were confronted with a large replica statue of Michelangelo's David, a then and still Gay icon, of wonderful proportions but more closely identified artistically with the Florentine Renaissance than Ancient Rome. Oh, to have known the soldier who posed for that, as I feel certain Michelangelo did!"
     The next example is from WWW.GLBTQ.COM. From their mission statement, "The glbtq encyclopedia was founded with a single objective in mind: to serve as the most comprehensive, accessible, and authoritative encyclopedia of gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer (glbtq) culture."  This is an article titled "The Bible."
 Example 20 - "So powerful is Michelangelo's image, in fact, that it has become the Western world's most pervasive symbol of male beauty and one of the staples of gay popular culture. Art critic Michael Bronski's recollection of the reproductions of Michelangelo's David that were displayed in many gay men's homes in the 1950s suggests how completely the image has been claimed by the gay community. "The Davids [sic] were not just erotically pleasing pieces of inexpensive art," he writes; "they were also signals to visitors in the know that the homeowners were homosexual, functioning as a kind of aesthetic Morse code of sexual identity." That code operates even more effectively when signaling an invitation to engage in male eros."
     The next example is again from WWW.GLBTQ.COM, the, "authoritative encyclopedia of gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer (glbtq) culture."  This article goes into a detailed analysis of David and Goliath, which again underscores the extent to which Michelangelo's David has been totally absorbed into the homosexual culture. This is a three page article, and if you desire to read the whole thing, the pages links will carry you to the additional pages.
 Example 21 - "The biblical narrative of King David, contained in the First and Second Books of Samuel and the opening chapter of the First Book of Kings, invites the reader to visualize homoerotically the shepherd boy turned warrior and king."
     The next two examples are from WWW.INDEGAYFORUM.ORG, the Independent Gay Forum, two articles, the first dealing directly with Michelangelo's asserted homosexuality, and the other, concerning the history of homosexuality in Michelangelo's Florence, Italy.
 Example 22 - Michelangelo's Hunks -  "Few artists before the present era have left so clear a record of their homosexuality as Michelangelo."
 
 Example 23 - Homosexuality in Renaissance Florence - "During the Renaissance, Florence developed a reputation for being pervaded with homosexuality ..."
     The next example is from WWW.LONGITUDEBOOKS.COM This is a web page that shows all of their gay and lesbian titles.  I include it here, to note the presence among these titles, of "The Poetry of Michelangelo: An Annotated Translation."  Homosexuals read his poetry to further develop, amplify, and justify, their lust for other males. 
 Example 24 - Book List
     The next example is the witness of Larry-Bob. He is a homosexual, considers himself part of the elite of this culture in fact, and has his eye on Michelangelo's David.
 Example 25 - "Whether I'm purchasing a plaster cast of Michelangelo's David, the latest reprints of Gordon Merrick novels, gay porno magazines, designer clothes (designed by Gay designers, of course), or freedom rings, I am preserving for posterity the highest pinnacles of our glorious gay culture."
     The next example, and article from GMAX, gay and lesbian, South Africa, gives us a street level view into the heart of homosexual life in the Folsom Street area of San Francisco.  Yes, Michelangelo's David is there.
 Example 26 - "For the next two decades, leather bars and bathhouses proliferated around Folsom Street, while the neighborhood's narrow alleys proved ideal for cruising. Among the most popular haunts were the Ambush (which boasted its own brand of poppers), the Barracks (described by author and former Drummer editor Jack Fritscher as "a four-story maze of fantasy sex"), the Brig, Febe's (with its trademark mascot, Michelangelo's David dressed as a leatherman), and the Slot."
     The next example, from an article "No Mo Drama, Legal services for gay divorcees," is another instance where the iconoclastic status of Michelangelo's David within the homosexual community is again highlighted.  This article is about a general facet of the homosexual culture, and still, the author feels a need to mention Michelangelo's David.
 Example 27 - "Plaster reproductions of Michelangelo's David, so beloved by gay men, will accent Mission-style furniture so popular with lesbians."
     The last category of examples that we will look at, deal with homosexual travel agencies, and the tours they provide.  Using the Google Search Engine, using the advanced search, trying to narrow the hits down to those that are the most relevant, the search engine returned 953 hits with this search strategy: The keyword "gay" had to be included.  One of these words needed to be present: tours OR vacation OR travel.  And this phrase had to be as shown: "Michelangelo's David".  Out of the 953 hits, here are the first 100 examples.  No, I am only kidding.  I will only present five here, and if the reader wants to see the rest, the Google search engine is just a click away.
 Example 28 - "Stroll down Florence's picturesque Ponte Vecchio, crammed with leather shops, admire Michelangelo's David, then check out Tuscany’s nascent gay scene."

 Example 29"Enjoy two full days in Florence and witness male perfection -- Michelangelo's David."
 
 Example 30"This morning we visit the Bargello, the Cathedral of St. Maria del Fiore,  Academy with the statue of David by Michelangelo. The tour will proceed to Piazza Santa Croce. Piazzale Michelangelo with a magnificent view. Walk to the Duomo and Baptistery to view the "Gates of Paradise." Continue to Signoria Square and Ponte Vecchio, the "Old Bridge." Afternoon at leisure in the heart of Florence. One of the best places to relax and look at hunks is in the Florence Bathhouse an exclusively gay sauna. Hmmmmm."
 
 Example 31 - Queer on 7 Continents - "We start in Florence, Italy, home of Michelangelo's David, then sweep through the celebrated wine region of Chianti."
 
 Example 32 - GAY FLORENCE: THE ART CITY OF THE WORLD - "Michelangelo's David is on the top of visitors travelers' list of things to see."
 
 Example 33 - "In 1795 Tuscany became one of the first states in Europe to legalize homosexuality, consequently Florence is a very gay-friendly city. Welcome to Florence - the birthplace of Gay Pride ... This morning we visit the Bargello, the Cathedral of St. Maria del Fiore,  Academy with the statue of David by Michelangelo. "

     This much is for sure.  Any gay oriented travel to Florence is centered on the Statute of David.  Why?  The homosexuals want to see David's genitals close up, and his rear end, for that is the business end for homosexuals, and there is a thriving tour business to that end.

     These 33 examples represent only the tip of the iceberg.  The tip of the iceberg tells a larger story.  The whole iceberg is the whole homosexual community, numbering in the millions, global in its extent.  And inside of each homosexual mind, you have a common point of adoration, a common idol, which is Michelangelo's David.  It is an integrated point of homosexual pride. The greatest artist on earth has made their lusts not only legitimate but he has provided for those lusts a universal target.  And a stream of their life energy is pouring into David's genital and buttocks area from every one of those minds.  This is universal.  No other group of people on earth have a similar fixation. 

     Because the statue of Michelangelo's David is saturated with the vibratory action of homosexual lust, the Masters would never have approved this as focus for their students meditation.  Never. 

     Meditation upon this statue draws that rebellious vibration into the subconscious.  It draws that vibration into the subconscious through a surface channel of rebellion against the law.  Any soul who is in alignment with the law, will look at that statue, and say, it is against the law to expose the private parts of any human being in public.  These are private parts, meant to register upon the consciousness of a man and a woman bound together within the divinely sanctioned institution of holy matrimony.  This is very basic.  To allow oneself to meditate upon this statue, is to suppress that inner sense of the law, that inner need to be faithful to the law.  That act of suppression is a point of rebellion.  And through that lens of rebellion, the astral energies of the greater rebellion associated with the entire homosexual culture — which pumps their lust in the direction of that statue every day — flows into the soul's subconscious.  The obedient soul naturally looks away, knowing that the laws of modesty are violated in this statue.  The disobedient soul alone will focus its gaze upon this statue. 

     And when this falsehood is promulgated, that this statue is an approved object of meditation for ascended master students, here we have a mechanism for instilling disobedience and rebellion, where none existed in the first place.  Or, perhaps adding additional momentum to an already existing momentum of disobedience and rebellion.

     In a very early dictation by Beloved Jesus Christ, delivered through Mark Prophet, he set forth a very fundamental principle of life, a common theme throughout all subsequent Teaching, which forms the foundation of our analysis of this situation.  He said, " .... for your attention held upon any person, place, condition or thing is allowing your very life—that very instant—to flow unreservedly into that upon which attention is fixed." [Pearls of Wisdom, Vol. 2  No. 11, Jesus Christ, March 20, 1959 ]

     Now, this goes for everyone.  This principle is operating in the world of each homosexual who looks at that statue, or keeps the image of the statue in his mind.   And that homosexual is sending the energy of his soul stamped with the most base form of lust and rebellion that is known on the planet today.  Therefore, as millions of homosexuals send their energy into the statue every day, that statue becomes literally charged with that energy, saturated with that energy.  All of the molecules and atoms of which that statue is composed, are literally dripping with that lust energy.  And because it long ago reached the saturation point, and simply cannot hold any more of that energy, there is probably a very large grid and forcefield of that astral energy floating in orbit around that statue.  That statue is probably one of the greatest focal points of darkness there is on this planet.  It is literally a shrine for homosexuals. 

     Now, for those of us who have no conscious connection to the homosexual community, as we look upon this monument, we extend our attention towards it, and when we do that, we also extend the energy of our soul in that direction.  And as we do this, in our innocence, we desire to gain something out of the experience.  Our soul desires to derive some kind of meaning from the experience, and in this, we have the return current.  In this, you have horizontal figure eight flow.  And that flow is at the level of your soul's comprehension of nakedness.  Because that is what you are looking at.  You are looking at nakedness.  This overpowers all other considerations.  And moreover, you are at a level of disobedience, having swept aside the mandates of modesty.  And the figure eight flow is that level, of nakedness, of disobedience.  And what you draw back towards yourself, at that wavelength, is an energy stream that is further discolored and polluted by the astral forcefield that surrounds that statue, created by the homosexuals. 

     Considering the Naked Chakra Man poster specifically, this is exactly what is happening.  But there is something more than simply the pollution of consciousness.  I believe that our meditation on this figure will implant, in a subliminal manner, a very destructive lie in the subconscious of the student, which will make them believe that they can access the pure light, depicted in the pure chakras illustrated therein, while residing in the most gross state of rebellion.  It is a delusion that has people refusing to align themselves with the law, while retaining the erroneous belief that they are still somehow on the Path.  That is the message of the Naked Chakra Man.  And in this way, it works against the soul's decision formulation processes, when it is trying to make those decisions to put the dweller of pride into the flame.  This force will argue out of the subconscious, with significant power, no, you don't have to do that. You can have rebellion and you can have light.  You don't need to make the tough decisions.  And in this way the path is totally compromised.

     And just in case some people are not making a connection between the actual statue of Michelangelo's David, and a photo of that statue, or a reproduction of that statue, or an artistic rendition of that statue, as we have in the Naked Chakra Man posters, I will make note here, that another important part of this equation has to do with the law, which is stated thusly, Two factors that are equal to the same thing, are equal to each other.  All energy movement conforms to this law.  Just as all representations, in all media, of the Washington Monument, will allow the consciousness of all people to orbit around the actual structure located in Washington D.C., and just as all representations, in all media, of the Statue of Liberty,  will allow the consciousness of all people to orbit around the actual structure in New York Harbor, so to will all representations, in all media, of Michelangelo's David, allow the consciousness of all people to orbit around the actual structure of that statue located in Florence, Italy. 

     We know clearly what the Teaching is on homosexuality.  It represents the most powerful form of misqualification of light that exists.  The misuse of the lifeforce in this manner, has caused the destruction of civilizations, Sodom and Gomorrah, I believe is the most recent example.  Drawing this energy into this community through this image will help to destroy any possibility that those students who partake of this corruption, will be able to realize the victory of the mission of the Ascended Masters. 

     In a February 13, 2003, document, The Resolution Process, developed by the leadership to describe a process to adjudicate alleged violations of the church's code of conduct, under the section entitled, "Standard of Conduct Violations That Could be Reviewed through This Process", we find the following sentence.

·         Practicing homosexuality, lesbianism or bisexuality.

     There is certainly a certain irony in reading this words, at the same time that the leadership pushes a poster on the student body that ties the membership into the very center of the universe of homosexual rebellion. 

     And yet, while all of this is true, and none of it can be gainsaid, we have this interesting situation, in which it has been made to appear to be true, that the Master El Morya has told us that this statue is a fit object for our meditation.  But, from the information that I will present below, we now know that the Master never said any such thing.  This is now a fact that we all have to deal with.  The Master never said that.  And so, how did these words come to be published in that Pearl of Wisdom?  This is a matter for further investigation to be sure, not for the purpose of fault finding, or blame gaming, but for the purpose of putting a cork in this bottle, so that this kind of a mistake can never be made again. 

What Needs to be
Destroyed or Recalled
     This investigation must be carried forward.  But in the meantime all materials which include a depiction of Michelangelo's David, must be taken out of circulation within this community.   Yes, what we are calling for is the destruction of all poster and wallet card depictions of this statue, both in the hands of students, and in the church inventory, and the recall of all books that depict this on the cover, so that they can either be replaced or repaired, whatever makes most sense from a practical point of view. And all references to these materials that appear in the on-line Summit Lighthouse Bookstore need to be eliminated.

     The Naked Chakra Man appears in at least two places in the current Summit Lighthouse catalogue under the category of "sacred images", wallet cards, and a full size poster.

     The following eight (8) items are currently accessible through the online Summit Lighthouse Bookstore. 1) Posters: Seven Sacred Centers of Man 19" X 25". 2) Prints: Chakra Man 5"x7". 3) Card: Chakra Man. 4) Card: Chakra Man 10 pack. 5) Card: Chakras Set (9 Cards: 7 Chakras, Secret Chamber & Chakra Man). 6) Your Seven Energy Centers (pocket guide) 7) Human Aura (pocketbook). 8) Your Seven Energy Centers (Audio Book).

The Infamous "Quote"
From the Pearls of Wisdom
     Now, in response to my July 2004 article which first broached the issue of the Naked Chakra Man, a member of the Lighthouse Keepers brought to my attention, the fact that it appears that the Master El Morya himself made a statement about Michelangelo's David, in a particular dictation, referring to a particular poster.

     This is the quote from Pearl of Wisdom, Vol. 38, No. 26, page 255:

"     Therefore, consciously direct a ray of violet flame to each of your chakras, from the base of the spine to the crown. The large violet flame poster that illustrates the chakras superimposed on Michelangelo's statue of David provides a strong visualization for clearing the chakras and raising the Kundalini.
      Visualize yourself systematically transmuting records of the ancient and near past until you have a fully cleansed temple that the Lord Christ might occupy. Yes, see yourself encircled in pulsating ovoids of violet flame, as shown on the poster. For what you see and internalize you shall become."

     Now, in my subsequent research, which I have set before the reader in the above exposition, which makes it clear that Michelangelo's David is the central icon of the homosexual universe, it dawned on me, that this research is proof positive that the Master El Morya never spoke those words, i.e. about Michelangelo's David. Yes, the words are there, in black and white, in the published pearl. But the truth is also there, out in the world, as I have set it before you. And so, given the fact that Master knows exactly what the homosexuals are fixated on, he would have never recommended this as a focus for his student's attention. Remember the words I quoted in the subtitle of this article above. I will repeat them here:

"I Am Leading All Men Away from Temptation."
"I Am Delivering All Men from Every Evil Condition."

     These are words from the I Am Lord's Prayer. This tells us what God in us is trying to do, and what God the Father is most certainly doing through the Master El Morya. He would have led us AWAY from Michelangelo's David. He would have delivered us from Michelangelo's David, given the fact that our attention on this statue ties us into the rebellion of the homosexual movement. And therefore, it is absolutely impossible for the Master to have ever spoken those words.

     A close analysis of the situation verifies this conclusion. The Master El Morya did not speak those words.

     First let me again quote what is published in the Pearl of Wisdom, Vol. 38, No. 26, page 255, adding some contextual reference points. Again, these are the words that are published in the Pearl:

Words Published
"     At each level of self-mastery you attain to, the daily requirement for personal and planetary transmutation by the violet flame is increased. For some, an additional prerequisite to progress is the sorting out of this and that in the unconscious and the subconscious.
      This is very important, beloved. For unless you clear the many levels of being, and specifically the issues of your psychology, you will find that the rising sacred fire will give a certain permanence to the knotty problems you desire to cast into the violet flame.
      Therefore, consciously direct a ray of violet flame to each of your chakras, from the base of the spine to the crown. The large violet flame poster that illustrates the chakras superimposed on Michelangelo's statue of David provides a strong visualization for clearing the chakras and raising the Kundalini.
      Visualize yourself systematically transmuting records of the ancient and near past until you have a fully cleansed temple that the Lord Christ might occupy. Yes, see yourself encircled in pulsating ovoids of violet flame, as shown on the poster. For what you see and internalize you shall become.
      Your goal is to have the Lord Christ of you, your Holy Christ Self, occupy your four lower bodies. If those bodies are full of debris that has been stored in the attic of the brain for centuries, there is no room whatsoever for the Christ to enter in.
      Clean house! But in the very same hour, fill the house with light. Sweep it clean, fill it with light and repeat the ritual day after day."
     Now, the following, are the words actually spoken by the Master, through the Messenger. You can see, comparing one with the other, the original words, transcribed below, only admit of four paragraphs (202 words), while the above published text is broken into six paragraphs, with many more words added, 60 new words all together (for a total of 262 words). But, of course, the most important fact that we notice as we scutinize the Masters original words, is this. You can see clearly, the Master made no reference to Michelangelo's David:
Words Actually Spoken
"     At each level of being, there is the requirement for transmutation by the violet flame. And in some cases, the sorting out of this and that in the unconscious and the subconscious.
     This is very important, beloved. For to clear these levels, clearing the issues of your psychology, you then will not find that the sacred fire that rises does give a certain permanence to the very things which you desire to cast into the violet flame.
     Therefore direct the violet flame consciously to the points of the chakras as they are shown on your chart. Keep that chart with you, and visualize yourself systematically transmuting records of ancient and near past until you have a fully cleansed temple and the Lord Christ might occupy. The goal that you have in the four lower bodies is that the Lord Christ of you, your Holy Christ Self, might occupy those four bodies. If those bodies are full of debris stored in the attic for centuries there is no room whatsoever for the Christ to enter in.
     Clean house! But in the very same hour fill the house with light. Sweep it clean, fill it with light, and repeat the ritual day after day. "
Here is the link to the MP3 audio excerpt for this quote (500KB):
Audio Excerpt:
Clean House!
     As you listen to this, please follow along in the transcript just above to verify that indeed, it is an accurate transcript. And then listen to it again, and try to follow along with the words in the published pearl. Let this experience be branded upon your soul.

      As you can see, the Master El Morya never mentions anything about Michelangelo's David. But yet, those words have shown up in the published dictation. Who put those words there?

      If the Messenger herself put those words there, a nefarious deed which would have been accomplished during the editing process, you will see, that I am now in the position of having to call into question the Messenger's judgment. While this is not a comfortable position to be in, this is far better than having to argue that there was an actual corruption of the transmission pathway during the course of a live dictation. I have been relieved of that duty, thank God. That would have been ten times more onerous a prospect. Thankfully, here, we only need focus on the possibility, that in the conduct of her off-platform duties, that Messenger put words into the Master's mouth, that the Master never spoke. Of course it is clear, the Master never spoke those words. But it also clear, that the Master would never countenance the inclusion of those words either.

      If she put in those words, if she put those words in there, she made a BIG MISTAKE.

      And so, I would just bring this point up, because it is very important. The Masters have mentioned that in the past, their Messengers have fallen under the influence of certain errors, and they have allowed those errors to enter into the Teaching that was distributed to the children of God, and in some cases, these errors became stones of stumbling, and that these messengers are paying the price for this, to this very day, for they must spend their time, even from ascended levels, working with those souls whose path their mistakes compromised. They are working to undo those mistakes to this very day, and while it is an unavoidable duty, it nevertheless keeps them from other areas of service that would otherwise allow a greater level of progress to be made manifest among the peoples of the earth.

      And so, we ask, what is the expression of real love in this situation, where it appears that the Messenger has made a truly grievous error? True love will expose that error to the light of day, for the benefit of everyone, and do so quickly, to make sure that no student will weave that thread of poison into their consciousness, and thereby fall away from the homeward path as a result. But just as importantly, if we feel any endearment at all for the person we call Mother, we will identify the mistake, and thereby, save her from many many centuries of labor, in an area that proved to be a great stumbling stone for many, even as it has been for one of our own.

      Having said that, there is another factor, that might tend to limit the liability of the Messenger somewhat. I will report to you, that in the process of transcribing the audio contents of dictations, that this is a very tedious process. This is a tedious process, even if you are not engaged in any decision processes that relate to the editing of the material. And so, I believe that this process is given over to others, other than the Messenger. I knew this to be true during the Camelot years, for I passed by, nearly every day, the little house where a group of students sat at their audio tape machines, doing exactly that transcription service.

      Now, when handed a transcript that has been double checked, and perhaps triple checked for accuracy, then the editing process begins. This is also a tedious and time consuming process. The question is, was any of this editing work delegated to another? If it was delegated to another, then the Messenger is somewhat off the hook. But not totally, because even if the editing process was delegated to people she "trusted", she would have to review their work, to make sure it was done correctly. Now, if she did not double check their work in this situation, perhaps she is somewhat more off the hook. But not completely, because it is her responsibility, and hers alone, to make sure that the word of the Masters goes out to the students in the most accurate way possible. This was her primary responsibility.

      And so, when it comes to saying, with certainty, that the Messenger made a mistake in this area, we have this ambiguity, related to the fact that we do not know exactly what her direct involvement was, in the placing of this reference to Michelangelo's David into this dictation. Her culpability and subsequent liability in this situation, could be pegged at one of four possible levels:

1. 100% Her Fault - She did this herself.
2. 75% Her Fault - 25% Another's - Another editor did this, but in the review process, she focused on it, clearly saw what had been done, and she approved it.
3. 50% Her Fault - 50% Another's - Another editor did this, but in her review of the work, she was distracted by other things, and skipped over this, giving the ok, without noticing the egregious error.
4. 25% Her Fault - 75% Another's - Another editor did this, but she did not review the work at all.

      As you can see, depending on the level of direct involvement, the Messenger will have some level of responsibility for undoing this problem, throughout all future generations, and we can do a service for her, by limiting the extent of the damage now. I really hope that everyone who says they love Mother, will put all of their effort into limiting the extent of damage in this area.

      And how odd it will seem to us, because of IDOLATRY alone, that those who say they love Mother, will condemn me, or anyone, who stands up with this information, denying our message totally, calling it all a lie, and thereby causing this mistake to be cast into pure gold for all time, why? because they must have a pure gold messenger, that's why, and as a result, condemn the one they purport to love, to centuries of toil and labor, as she tries to undo the dastardly and insidious effects of this mistake that could have been arrested by those who purport to be loyal to her.

[Use of Bracketing to Indicate
Added or Edited Material]
     There was a time that the Messenger used brackets to indicate where the words of the Master had been edited or added to. This was not a practice that obtained from the beginning however. From a perusal of my library of published Pearls of Wisdom, I can report to you that this bracketing practice did not show up until 1988.  From my brief review, I can report that there was no bracketing and no reference to any editing process in the pearls from 1980 through 1987. What was the practice before that, perhaps someone can enlighten me.

     Bracketed material begins to show up in the beginning of 1988, Volume 31. Various amounts of bracketing was used in the 1988 Volume 31 pearls, from No. 1 to No. 27 [No.'s 28, 29, were unavailable for this analysis] but there is no explanation in the endnote section as to how we are to interpret this. The first explanation that I found shows up in the endnote section of No. 30, as follows:

N.B. Bracketed material denotes words unspoken yet implied by the Archangel, added by the Messenger under his direction for clarity in the published text.

     N.B. is an abbreviation for a Latin phrase, nota bene, which means that there is something important here the reader needs to look at.

     Six pearls later, in No. 36, (still 1988, Volume 31), this endnote was revised.  Brackets were added to the note in the endnote section, and the syntax was changed:

[N.B. Bracketed material denotes words unspoken yet implicit in the dictation, added by the Messenger under Archangel Uriel's direction for clarity in the published text.]

     Six pearls later, in No. 42, (still 1988, Volume 31), the wording of the endnote was changed slightly:

[N.B. Bracketed material denotes words unspoken yet implicit in the dictation, added by the Messenger under Archangel Uriel's direction for clarity in the written word.]

     This is the standard explanation that has been included in the endnote section of every Pearl, through the remainder of 1988, through 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, and into 1993.  Only the name of the Master changes to fit the particular pearl in question.

     The last Pearl, in 1993, wherein the bracketing modality was used, was Vol. 36, No. 12.  This was a dictation delivered by Archangel  Michael. Why did the bracketing stop at this point? Did this mark a shift to a "ghost" editor? What I mean is, that Elizabeth Clare Prophet put her name on things that were actually written by "ghost" writers. Some of her lectures fall into that category. I am wondering whether this shift in practice, the abrupt end of the bracketing practice denotes the adoption of a "ghost" editor.

     In the very next 1993 Pearl, (Vol. 36, No. 13), there is no bracketing used, and a new note appears in the endnote section, as follows:

[N.B. This dictation was edited for print by the Messenger under the direction of Archangel Gabriel and Hope.]

     This note, in this form, appears in all of the Volume 37, 1994 Pearls, and all of the Volume 38, 1995 Pearls. I am assuming that the practice continues in this manner until the retirement of the Messenger in 1998.

     Now, when it comes to the particular pearl we are interested in here, I was hoping to see this note disappear, indicating the Messenger had handed this duty off to someone else.  Though I suppose the note could still stay there, if she was only supervising the editing process (under the "ghost" editing scenario just mentioned). .  Nevertheless, my hope was not realized in this respect.  This note appears in the endnotes in the 1995 Pearl in question, Vol 38, No. 26 (Clean House!).

[N.B. This dictation was edited for print by the Messenger under El Morya's direction.]

     To summarize, no editing activity was made evident to the membership, from 1980 through 1987.   Bracketed material begins to show up in Pearls at the beginning of 1988, but without explanation.  The explanation for bracketing appears in the 31st Pearl for 1988.  And the explanation is refined from the 31st pearl through the 42nd pearl.  The editing/bracketing practice, and the explanation for it, remains constant for the remainder of 1988, and into 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, and into 1993.  The use of brackets to identify added material ended with the 12th pearl in 1993.  From that point on, through the remainder of 1993, through 1994, and 1995, all pearls carry a note indicating that the material has been edited by the Messenger, but without the bracketing practice, we do not know the extent of it. 

     In the Pearl under consideration here, in this particular instance, we have seen that the editing can be quite extensive.  And we have seen, that it is possible for major errors to enter into the Teaching, through this editing practice.

     I would add one more thought along these lines. The use of brackets (in the past) represents the presence of a desire to keep clear in the minds of the students, what the Master said, and what the Messenger added. In other words, the use of brackets was the expression of the desire to eliminate confusion in this area. When the brackets are not used, then there is confusion. And you can definitely see how this confusion will spread, because now, when this is clearly seen, people will have less of a sense of trust in what they are reading, especially in those dictations where brackets are not used. It is not good to inject any amount of mistrust in this regard, any amount of confusion in this regard.

     The Messenger abandoned this desire to maintain clarity in this regard, in the Pearls of Wisdom, in 1993. And therefore, we can say, that an element of confusion entered in at that point. 1993 was a pivotal year in this respect.

Some Pertinent Observations
on the Changing the Word
"Chart" to "Poster"
     It is my overall impression, after studying the original words of the Master transcribed above, that they are concise and to the point, and required no editing at all. That's my overall opinion. Clearly, the Messenger erred, or someone erred, when they put the words Michelangelo's David into the Master's mouth.

     But, there is another interesting point to consider, when it came to the decision to change the word "chart" to "poster." The master used the word "chart" not once, but twice. In one instance it was changed to "poster". The other instance was eliminated entirely. And the word "poster", which the Master never used once, was inserted twice by the editor, once to replace chart, and once in an area where the Master was not even talking about the chart in question.

     What kind of explanation could there be for completely eliminating a stated concept? The Master said "Keep that chart with you." That concept was totally eliminated. It was eliminated, because it was impossible, I suppose to "keep that poster with you." The editor had changed the word chart to poster, and because the poster was so big, well you couldn't expect to keep that with you, so they eliminated the words entirely! Who can defend that?

     In trying to fathom what the Master was referring to when he used the word "chart", a place to begin, would be to see how the Masters have used the word "chart" in the past. Here are the words of the Master El Morya as spoken through his Messenger:

"Therefore direct the violet flame consciously to the points of the chakras as they are shown on your chart. Keep that chart with you, and visualize yourself systematically transmuting records of ancient and near past until you have a fully cleansed temple and the Lord Christ might occupy."

     Searching Pearls On-Line using the keywords "chart OR charts OR charted OR charting" returned 275 documents. After surveying each of these documents, we find that the Masters have used the word "chart" or its derivative, in seven primary ways, and these are listed in the chart/table below according to the frequency of usage.

Note: There is one caveat to these figures. No distinction was made to as to whether the reference was in the body of the pearl, or in the endnotes, or if in the pearls, whether the word showed up in bracketed material. I would estimate that 90% of all references were in the body of the pearl, and not in bracketed material.
     Given the fact that the most common use of the word "chart" in Ascended Master lexicon, is used in conjunction with the Chart of the Presence, I believe it is reasonable to assume that the Master's reference to a "chart" in the pearl excerpt under consideration here, is a reference to something similar.

     What are the key characteristics of the Chart of the Presence? Everything in that chart is symbolic. This would rule out the Naked Chakra Man, because what is depicted there is not symbolic. Michelangelo's David is a real statue. And it is a statue of a real person in history.

     Moreover, the Chart of the Presence had long been reduced to the size of a wallet card, so it was very easy to keep this chart with you. So, in this sense, he could also be referring to something that had already been reduced to the size of a wallet card.

     Now, I think that when we look into this issue in depth, we will see that by the time that this dictation was delivered in 1995, that someone has already decided to bring forth the Naked Chakra Man, using Michelangelo's David, and that the Master El Morya chose his words in such a way as to provide an indicator for the Messenger, that this particular miscreation was not what the Master was referring to. Because of the realism in Michelangelo's David, this did not fit into the meaning of the word chart as the Master used it.

     And moreover, it might be, that at that point, the Naked Chakra Man miscreation, had not yet been reduced to a wallet size. And because of this, his reference to keeping the chart with you all the time, might have been intended to be another indicator to the Messenger, that the Naked Chakra Man was not what the Master was referring to, in as much as the Naked Chakra Man, because it was only in poster form at that time, could not be kept with the student at all times. Certainly, the plausibility of this theory is supported by the fact that this phrase was removed entirely. Why was it removed entirely? Because you cannot keep a poster with you at all times. And this then would tend to validate the idea that the Naked Chakra Man poster had not been reduced to a wallet size at that time.

     What might it have been, at that time, that would fit the definition of a chart, as the Master used it, referring to something completely symbolic, and at the same time, something that the students could keep with them at all times, having been reduced to a wallet card by that time?

     The image to our right is a good candidate for this. This is a graphic that was included in the Master Djwal Kul's book, Intermediate Studies of the Human Aura, published in 1976. Since this image had been around so long, there is a good possibility that it had been reduced into a wallet card by the time that the Master gave his dictation in 1995, which is about 19 years after this image was produced in this book. It fits exactly the definition and meaning of the word chart. Everything in this image is symbolic. I found the same image in a Summit Lighthouse Christmas mailing for 1991. Reduced to a small thumbnail size, indicating that the image was still alive.

     There is a good reason for keeping things symbolic when it comes to things like this. The student should not be confused into believing that the idea is to visualize something for the sake of visual accuracy. All light is associated with purpose, and all purpose associated with divine qualities. It is the qualities that we must learn to assimilate. When you can anchor a particular divine quality, that means that your chakras are working properly.

     I also believe that the running chakra man was not a proper focus for the students attention either, because the running man was not a symbol, but a real person. And given the laws of energy flow, when people focus on that graphic, they are sending energy to that particular person. I suppose that could be a good thing, for the person in the poster, but it could also be a bad thing, depending on who is sending the energy. From the standpoint of the viewer, it could also be a bad thing, if that person later falls away from the path, and becomes an electrode for rebellion. For example, if the person depicted had been Sean Prophet, you would not want to focus your attention on that poster.

     Altogether, the symbolic representation is the best for this purpose. I believe when the chart is symbolic, the target for all energy flow is on the inside of the mind, within the domain of one's own being. And that it is where it should be in this case.

General References
to Michelangelo in
the Pearls of Wisdom
     The artist, Michelangelo, has been mentioned by the Masters, in three key instances. The first time, in 1963, by Archangel Gabriel. The second time in 1975 by Beloved Sanat Kumara and Lady Master Venus. And the third time, in 1990, by the Master Jesus Christ. These references clearly indicate that Michelangelo was an artist sponsored by the Brotherhood.

     And I believe this fact, should lay to rest, the assertion of the homosexual community that Michelangelo was a homosexual himself. As we are taught, the practice of homosexuality is a practice that takes the pure light of the heart, and decelerates it, causing it to fall down the spine in vibration, and into the lower chakras, which would prohibit the rising of the light, in any amount of purity, into the upper chakras, where it must be if the soul is to contact the genius of the Christ Mind.

     Of course it is true, that no soul in a fallen state can contact the Christ Mind, without the assistance of a sponsoring Master. And because Michelangelo was clearly able to draw into manifestation so much of the beauty of God's creation, he had to be sponsored.

     But the question is, could he have been both sponsored, and a homosexual at the same time? I think not.

     The first reason, is that the Masters sponsor for a purpose. The purpose is to advance the Will of God. What is the Will of God when it comes to the homosexual community? Clearly, the Will of God is for them to come away from the behavior pattern, to stop misqualifying the lifeforce in that manner. When the Masters deal with homosexuals, it is to do what they can to set them free. And so, are they going to contribute to the acceptance of the homosexual lifetstyle among the populations of the earth, by giving people the impression that a homosexual can have their homosexuality, and the greatest gifts of God at the same time? No. If Michelangelo had any kind of a homosexual momentum going into that lifetime, he would not have been a candidate for sponsorship.

     Clearly, direct sponsorship of a homosexual, in terms of lavishing upon them great gifts of divine artistry, would have only served to confuse the homosexual himself, when it comes to the consequences of his chosen lifestyle. And confuse the world in the bargain. The Masters are not about confusing anyone.

     Secondly, the practice of homosexuality would have caused such a downward flow of energy, and represents such a state of rebellion against the law of God, that the Masters would not have been able to compensate for it. I say this because the homosexual sense of identity is a constant downward flow of energy. To compensate for it, the Master would have had to extend a constant upward flow of energy into his chakras, and if the Master did that, Michelangelo would not have been a homosexual at all. The Masters are not allowed to overide the freewill of those whom they sponsor.

     Another factor that we should consider in this respect, is that at the "heart" of homosexuality, is a virulent hatred of woman. In other words, it is a way of life, and the sustaining of a forcefield of energy that defies coming under the influence of feminine beauty. It is God's Will that man come under the influence of feminine beauty. And homosexuals defy that Will. And so, we see in Michelangelo's art, that he was able to capture feminine beauty in many respects, and this fact alone would argue decisively, in my mind, that this individual could not possbily have been a homosexual.

     As you can see from the last example of "art" given to us by Sean Prophet below (cover page for Spring Media Group), who has entered into at least a deep sympathy for the homosexual lifestyle, that the soul has lost any and all sense of divine beauty.

     Michelangelo was not perfect in his humble messengership, as we have seen. But he was a divine messenger, within the realm of art, and the Masters clearly indicate that his work, generally speaking, is a fit for the attention of Ascended Master students. This is the basic message set forth in the following three pearls.

Archangel Gabriel
THE RADIANT WORD
Excerpt from a dictation given
in Los Angeles, September 10, 1963
Vol. 24 No. 79, November 1, 1981
"And as the tomb of materiality, which stands before the face of each of you as your own human creation and density, is rolled away and you see within that tomb the resurrected Christ of your own Holy Christ Self standing above you in the ethers, radiant with all the splendor of his glory, shining [with] the perfection of you, you will recognize that the face that you see in the mirror is not the real you at all and that the flesh that you wear can yield to the power of your Holy Christ Self as a piece of marble yielded to the hands of a Michelangelo."
     In regards to this statement, the original audio is not available for us to listen to, so we will have to assume that the reference to Michelangelo is genuine, and not added in any editing process. I believe this reference is too integral to the concept being communicated, for there to be any question as to whether this reference was made by the Master or not.

     And so, who can deny the obvious inference here, that the Archangel is bearing witness to the fact that the hands of Michelangelo were animated by the Christ?

     But let not any degree of idolatry take hold of the mind in regards to this artist. Michelangelo's understanding of those spiritual principles, which are only being released in this day and age, which would have helped him to maintain these high standards in everything he did, was not with him, and therefore, he was susceptible to influences that tempted him to misuse the great talents vouchsafed to him by the Brotherhood.

     Nevertheless, here we see a reference to Michelangelo that would have had the effect upon the young Elizabeth Clare Prophet, of encouraging her pre- existing practice of looking upon Michelangelo's Statue of David in association with her first son, Sean.

Beloved Sanat Kumara
and Lady Master Venus

New Year's Class 1975
New Beginnings in the
Flame of the Holy Spirit
Vol. 42 No. 28 -- July 11, 1999
"In one generation, or perhaps two, you can see how souls welcomed in the holiness of the Holy Spirit can outpicture the very countenance of the living God. Therefore, mothers to be, fathers to be, contemplate the works of Michelangelo, the form of the body, the noble body of the Lord and ask the Almighty to impress upon that incoming form those matrices serene, statuesque."

[This dictation by Sanat Kumara was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood, Elizabeth Clare Prophet, on December 29, 1974, at the four-day New Year's Class, New Beginnings in the Flame of the Holy Spirit, held in Anaheim, California.]

      I checked the original audio for this dictation, and I can report to the reader, that the words printed in this Pearl are identical to the words spoken by the Master. There is no question, therefore, that in this instance, the Master referred directly to the artist Michelangelo.

     Here we see another reference to Michelangelo that would have had the effect upon the young Elizabeth Clare Prophet, of encouraging her pre- existing practice of looking upon Michelangelo's Statue of David in association with her first son, Sean.

     However, I believe the Master included a reference in this dictation, given 11 years after the previous dictation, that should have helped the Messenger to recognize the extent of her misconception in this area. In this statement, the Master referred to "the noble body of the Lord ". I believe that this is rightly interpreted to refer to Michelangelo's depiction of the Master Jesus Christ. And that this does not apply to "David". It is true, that the Biblical David was an embodiment of the soul, who later become the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. But, at the time that soul was embodied as David, that soul was not "Lord". He was David, who was to bloody his hands in many gruesome ways, and to commit outright murder, and make much karma in the process, if you will remember the story. And so, when the Masters says "the noble body of the Lord " he is not referring to the Statue of David.

     Remember that the Master El Morya counsels us to be precise. I believe this distinction comports with the spirit of precision that he advocates.

     I would also point out here, that we have an opportunity to study an interesting threefold nexus of messengers, sponsored messengers to be sure, but flawed messengers without a doubt: 1) the Biblical David, 2) the artist Michelangelo, and 3) the Messenger Elizabeth Clare Prophet, they all come together on this one point. David was known as a Servant of God, and a loyal one at that. But did that stop him from committing murder when he found woman that he fancied? No. Michelangelo was clearly sponsored by the Brotherhood, but did that stop him from breaking the laws of modesty in many of his works, which has clearly proven a stumbling block for the world's homosexual community for 500 years? No. Elizabeth Clare Prophet has brought forth a teaching that will serve as the foundation for the Aquarian Age. But did that high and holy relationship with the Brotherhood that allowed her to be so successful in this regard, stop her from becoming fixated on a point of rebellion that has proven a stumbling block for everyone in this community? No.

"Therefore know the path of the Bodhisattva. Know the sweetness and the compassion, the peace, the fierceness, the strength, the virya! Know the wisdom. Know the ability to rule the city because you rule yourself. Know the geometry of God and expand [your soul-awareness] into it as a Michelangelo. Understand that you can know many things beyond what happens to be in your outer [conscious] mind. Yes, you can contact the level of genius. And if you do not have [that level of genius developed in your four lower bodies], then let the violet flame consume all records of anger and hatred and fear [that prevent its development]! For these [vibrations], beloved, do surely consume the fineness [and the refinement] of the Mind of God within you that piercing quality, that manifestation [of needlelike rays] that is able to probe a cosmos and bring back discovery and new dimensions of thought."

[This dictation by Jesus Christ was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood Elizabeth Clare Prophet on Christmas Day, December 25, 1990, at the Royal Teton Ranch, Park County, Montana.]

     In regards to the question of whether the Master actually used the name of Michelangelo in this instance, I can report to you that the original audio for this dictation indicates the Master Jesus did indeed speak the name of Michelangelo.

     Moreover, in regards to this excerpt, I can report to the reader that everything that is printed as the words of the Master, are the words of the Master, and every word that was added, which is in brackets, was not spoken by the Master. And I must say, from my own perspective, that what the Master spoke, was clear, concise, and very straightforward. I don't see any need for the added words.

     In regards to the reference to the name of Michelangelo, we are given the testimony here, that the awareness of Michelangelo's soul was able to expand into the domain of divine beauty, and to draw that beauty down into this world, and express it in his art work. Given the other principles set forth here, we can assume that Michelangelo was not encumbered by the energies of fear, anger and hatred, which are always present in homosexual men, as I noted above. This provides additional verification that Michelangelo himself, was not a homosexual.

     But more to the point at hand, this provides additional validation for the idea that Michelangelo was sponsored by the Brotherhood, and that his artwork in general is a useful focal point for the meditation of Ascended Master students. This cannot be doubted. But, just as Mark Prophet said of the teachings of the Masters of the far east, that not all that glitters is gold, we must use our discrimination to identify those areas where Michelangelo expressed the darkness of the not-self, yes, even in the midst of the process of producing works of art. In Michelangelo's David, we clearly have an example of one instance where the artistic master has departed from the reservation of divine purpose.

     I would just like to say, in more general terms, that this dictation by the Master Jesus Christ, is absolutely worth listening to. I say this for two reasons primarily.

     First, during the whole time I was listening to this, I was clearly aware, that the false messengers the Shearers, the Michaels, etc, could never deliver anything like this. These words are spoken from a perspective miles and miles above the status quo human consciousness of the multitudes, and there is resident in these words, a great magnet of love, of hope, and admonishment, that draws the soul up, if the soul would only let go of its chains. And of course, this Master is able to enlist us all in his great hope, in other words, to enlist us in the fulfillment of that great hope, that all the children of God on this planet can be swept up in the arms of God to live again, and forever withing the pure paradise regions of the heavenly estate, not in some future time, but now. The false messengers cannot speak from this perspective. This dictation is a useful standard which you can use to evaluate the teachings of any other so-called messenger. Holding them side by side, what is true gold is evident enough.

     This dictation is pure gold.

     Secondly, this dictation sets forth a very profound teaching on the mechanization consciousness, that so many in our own leadership are exhibiting right before our very eyes. I will write more about this later.

Yet Another
Threefold Nexus

 Michelangelo's David
 Elizabeth Clare Prophet
 Sean Christopher Prophet
     I believe we have here, an indication of a flaw in the perception of the messenger, that has gone back to the very birth year of Sean Christopher Prophet. I believe this was in 1963.

     In the book, "Nurturing Your Baby's Soul, A Spiritual Guide for Expectant Parents", by Elizabeth Clare Prophet, compiled and Edited by Nancy Hearn and Dr. Joye Bennett , we find two references to Michelangelo.

From page 160:
"The unborn baby is profoundly sensitive and can perceive the beauty, virtue and joy that the mother sees and feels as she meditates upon beautiful works of art by masters such as Michelangelo. Leonardo da Vici and Nicholas Roerich."
From page 156:
"Before my oldest son was born I meditated on a replica of Michelangelo's statue of David. My son now has a similar build."
     The first general reference to the art of Michelangelo comports with what the Masters have said. But the second statement, is where the Messenger has stepped off the reservation, and by so doing, has placed a stumbling block in front of many many souls, not the least of which appears to be her own son.

     The homosexual icon status of Michelangelo's David was the same in the 1960's, as it is today, even though homosexuals were largely underground at that time. We have witness, in one of the examples above, that even in the 1950's, the presence of the statue of Michelangelo's David, was a signal for those entering a home, that homosexuality was practiced there, and the statue was meant to be a come-on in this regard.

     I would again point out what I believe to be the absolute truth in this regard. God our Father has set before us the law of modesty, and for good reason, and this creation of Michelangelo breaks that law. Those who gaze upon this statue for any length of time, are having the psychology of their soul twisted into the domain of disobedience. And along that wavelength of disobedience, the astral energies associated with the rebellion of the homosexual community flow.

     Now, I know there are many who will say that we should be able to look at the private parts of another, and not be moved one way or the other. But this is an idealism that emanates right out of the play book of the false hierarchy. It consciously ignores the truth (for the purpose of further ensnaring of souls), that what we are dealing with here, are fallen souls, whose whole life expression have already come under the decelerating influences of mortality. In other words, the great majority of the population do not know how to focus their attention for the rising of the light within their chakras. They are universally, enslaved by many varieties of downward momentums. The only exception is in the area of sexual relations between man and wife. Here, for the time that the energies are flowing, the soul experiences a certain domain of paradise. For fallen man, sex is the closest thing to paradise they know. And it is really the closest contact with God they know. And so, they remember these experiences, more than they remember anything else. And when you place a depiction of the private parts of the human anatomy before the eyes of any human being, they will deal with that visual information out of their own sexual experience. This simply cannot be escaped. Now, it is unlawful to invoke that area of experience outside the bonds of holy matrimony. That is the law. And that is why private parts are called private parts. It is true that this law has been totally shredded in this culture, and perhaps the shredding is not yet complete. But the law remains the law in the law books of heaven, and for good reason. Those who are wise, will always dress modestly. And they will encourage modesty in others. As noted, Michelangelo broke the laws of modesy in his Statue of David.

     Perhaps this was part of Sean's karma, that he had focused upon him at this stage in his development, directed into his four lower bodies by his mother's meditation, the most intense rebellion that the planet knows about, which is harbored by the homosexual community.

     How did his mother miss this vibration? First of all, Elizabeth Clare Prophet was not a messenger at that time. She had been called to be a messenger, and had only begun her training. And so, perfection in discrimination could not possibly be expected of her at that point in her life.

     Stipulating to this truth, we still need an answer to this question. How did his mother miss this vibration? What accounts for this blindness?

     What accounts for this blindness is pride. And what is the most intense and seamless pride manifest anywhere? It is the pride of the human mother. The mother looks at the child, and sees the beauty of the child as an ex
