A Great Sign,
Yes, Even in
the Heavens

By Steven S. Showers, Editor

     Dear Friends of God, friends of the Ascended Masters, friends of the Summit Lighthouse, and friends of Church Universal & Triumphant:

     The Ascended Masters have given us a great, and fantastic, and undeniable sign, to assure us all, to give us confidence, that in the call to Rally as One, and to do so Now, around the Truth, regarding the past Communist Party affiliations of Olga I. Perminova — a call which I sent out on January 22, 2004 — that a great mantle of Wisdom has descended upon the entire activity, and especially upon those who are truly devoted to the highest Teaching that has yet been delivered to this earth through the Great White Brotherhood.

     This great and fantastic sign, that this mantle has indeed descended, which I will describe shortly, underscores, and profoundly so, that the Teaching is the key to our Victory.

     Study, know, and assimilate the Teaching which the Masters have given on Communism, and you will understand, and you will have no doubts, as to the enormity of the sacrilege committed by the leaders of this church, in appointing a longstanding member of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union to lead an Ascended Master organization in Russia.

     The fact that they have done this, allows us to conclude with seamless certainty, that these individuals are not fit to lead this organization.

     For of a truth, those who have no thumbs have taken the intricately constructed, delicate and finely adjusted timepiece of Russian Unity into their hands, and in their efforts to "fix" it, what else could they do, but to destroy it? To leave it on the table broken and in pieces.

     Now, I have said that the Masters have given us a sign, to assure us, to give us confidence, that indeed a great mantle of wisdom has descended now upon the whole congregation, and everyone, throughout the entire organization, has access to it, if only they will grasp the principle of harmony.

     What is the first principle of harmony? It is this. The Teaching is for our Safety.

     What is the second principle of harmony? It is this. The Teaching is for our Victory.

     What is the third principle of harmony? It is this. Those who ignore the Teaching, will have neither Safety, nor Victory. And this goes for both individuals and organizations.

     For those who are not aware of the fact, let me preface my remarks, in regards to this wondrous sign, by saying that the chief etheric retreat of the Great White Brotherhood on the North American continent, is the Royal Teton Retreat, located in the Grand Teton Mountains. This is an ancient retreat, and of course, plays a major role in holding the balance for the unfolding of God's purposes, in America, and throughout the world.

     On the morning of January 22, 2004, during the sunrise period, an actual mantle descended upon the Royal Teton Retreat, located in the Grand Tetons in Wyoming. During this sunrise period, in an otherwise clear sky, the mantle descended upon, and enveloped the Grand Teton, the very pinnacle point, which is a metaphor for the highest Teaching that the Brotherhood has yet released.

     Here is something that will be a really big surprise to most readers. You will be able to see this with your own eyes. I recorded the event, and I will show it to you.

     But first, let me say, that I know there are those who will wonder, and question, why we should draw any kind of connection between the descent of that mantle upon the Grand Teton, and this particular issue that we are embroiled in. There are three (3) answers, which, when taken together, will help you to see why this is one of the greatest gifts that the Brotherhood has ever given to the members of this organization.

     First, who was the person, to whom this point of illumination was revealed, in regards to the Communist Party membership of Olga I. Perminova, and was given the understanding of how this related to the current organizational controversy? That person was me. Who was the person who was motivated to send out the call, on this point, on January 22, 2004, to the entire organization? Again, that person was me. Who was the person who was inspired to write a computer program for the express purpose of collecting Grand Teton sunrise sequences (last year), and who, moreover, was given the time, and the opportunity, and the resources to do so? Again, that person was me. Who was the person who perfected that web cam collection program over the course of many weeks, and brought it to the point where it can run automatically, and unattended, on a high speed DSL connection 24 hours a day? Again, that person is me. Is there any other person in this entire organization, who was so hugely inspired and driven to collect Grand Teton sunrise sequences? No. Is there any other person on earth, for that matter, who collects Grand Teton sunrise sequences? No. Therefore, there is only one person on the entire planet, who would be in the position to collect that sunrise sequence, and understand what it meant. That person was me. While the sunrise sequence belongs to everyone, and I am here to share it with everyone, there was only one person, on the entire earth, who was in the position to record it, and understand what it meant, and that was the same person, who on the very same day, made the rally call, that I have mentioned. That's what they call in the trade, a nexus.

     I am genuinely sorry and embarrassed that there are so many "me's" written into the foregoing paragraph. But, the principle, and the fact, of the nexus, had to be set forth.

     And yes, and of course, I will show you those sunrise sequences! They are for you. They are for the victory of this organization. And I will show you those sunrise sequences from three (3) different web cams, which collected that January 22, 2004, sequence from three different angles! Three angles!

     Now, the Second reason we should connect this sign in the heavens, to this issue area, is, as I have noted before, the important imperative, held by the Masters themselves, that the current situation regarding the destruction of Russian Unity, be resolved, and be resolved thoroughly, and justly, or the organization will not be able to fulfill its mission.

     In all truth, what we are dealing with here, is a group of rebels who have clawed and scratched their way into the leadership of this church. From their position of leadership, they are incrementally working to establish a culture of rebellion, a culture of defiance against the Teaching itself. One obvious example of that defiance, is the appointment of a longstanding member of the Communist Party of the Old Soviet Union to a leadership position in an Ascended Master organization in Russia. The Teaching forbids this. But they did it anyway, and they will justify it no doubt, and in that justification, they will add yet another layer of rebellion against the Teaching itself, to the historical tradition of this organization.

     And this is the important point to grasp. The alchemy of divine expansion can never take hold, anchor itself, and blossom, under these conditions. This culture of rebellion must be exposed, and it must be rooted out. Only then can the alchemy of expansion be allowed to blossom naturally as the Masters intend. And therefore, we are in a do, or die, situation. The membership must SEE what is going on. And they must make the pin point calls. And they must take the pin point actions. If these rebels are not exposed, they will establish their traditions of defiance, of willful disobedience to the Teaching, and as the years roll on, as the membership dozes, deeper and deeper, into the slumber of apathy, the Teaching will slowly, but surely, become a dead letter over time, and as a consequence, the organization will slowly but surely shrivel on the vine. We cannot allow that to happen. And therefore, this exposure, is a matter of survival, and that is why the Ascended Masters have given us such a blessed and undeniable sign. The Masters are very intent on helping us realize the enormity of the challenge we face, and they are determined to help us meet this challenge. They want us to pay attention. They want us to study the situation. And they want us to make the right decisions now.

     And finally, as we examine these sunrise sequences, there is a third reason to adopt a solid sense of certainty when it comes to the connection between this heavenly sign given on the morning of January 22, 2004, and the call to Rally as One, that went forth on that very same day.

     Look at the direction in which the Masters are directing our attention! They are directing our attention to the Royal Teton Retreat!

     Isn't it true that we absorb the vibration of pure wisdom, pure truth, pure divine will, when we place our attention upon this majestic natural monument, within which the Brotherhood maintains its principal retreat here in North America? There is not a single more brilliantly radiant location on the continent than this retreat. Tens of thousands of brilliantly radiant hearts, if not more, are constantly occupied throughout its various departments carrying on the business of the Brotherhood. Many angelic choirs radiate their healing songs from that location. And the hopes and dreams of God our Father, and our Mother, shine forth, out of the whole, like a city fully lit, at the midnight hour. As we contemplate these sunrise sequences, let the brilliance of that etheric light reflect in the still and peaceful pool of our souls, and reveal to us thereby, in the divine image that is reflected therein, the wisdom of adopting the postures of purest devotion to the Teaching, that has been given for our Safety, and for our Victory.

     The more fully we can grasp the value of purest devotion, the more fully we can grasp the depth of sacrilege, the depth of desecration that is associated with the current church leadership's defiance of the Teaching in so many ways, not the least of which is this appointment of a former member of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, to lead, TO LEAD, an Ascended Master organization in Russia.

     And so, let us heed the great signs given, yes, even in the heavens.

     Without further adieu, then, allow me to introduce the January 22, 2003, Grand Teton Sunrise slide presentation. The version of thispresentation which is available here, is the latest presenation with many new and improved features over the previous Java based slide show. There are six major changes as follows:

     First, I have migrated the project to Macromedia Flash, which incorporates DATA STREAMING! This means that you don't need to wait for the whole presentation to download before you can view the first slides. Of course, you will need the latest version of the Flash plug-in for your web browser. It's free. If you need to upgrade to the latest version (7.0), the upgrade process is quick and easy.

     Second, I have consolidated all three of the January 22, 2004, Grand Teton Sunrise photo sequences into one slide show. You will see them all in order, Lost Creek Ranch, Beringia South, and then North Driggs Idaho. Because of this appropriate sequencing, this is a much higher impact presentation.

     Third, I have added buttons for you to click that will take you from frame to frame within the opening and closing commentary sections. The central photo sections still run automatically, one photo to the next, with an appropriate fade in and fade out, which makes the presentation smoooth. But, even here, I have provided buttons you can use to replay the photo sections over and over, before continuing with the closing commentary.

     Fourth, I have added a more thorough introductory commentary, so that viewers will be able to place the three series of Grand Teton Sunrise photos in context. This Great Sign was given for a purpose. I have made an effort to make sure that the introductory commentary presents that purpose in a few very brief commentary slides.

     Fifth, I have added a more thorough closing commentary, that points to the exact problem that we are facing in terms of those rebellious souls who have infiltrated into the leadership of our organization, and provides a short description of the solution. The closing commentary ends with a few short slides devoted to the subect of an Aquarian Age Democracy. This is a sketch of the Middle Way in terms of organizational governance, yes, the yellow brick road of wisdom that will lead us safely through the dark and dangerous forest of human tyranny in which the creatures of delusion continue to howl at us, and to reach out from the very shadows to grab at us, and nip at us, from both sides of the trail, from the left, and from the right.

     Sixth, I have added SOUND to every button click! Most people will not recognize what that sound is, so I have devoted three explanatory slides at the beginning of the presentation to explain what that sound is. I did not include this particular observation, but the more I think about it, I believe the sound actually resembles an exagerated smooch. See if you can make that sound yourself, and then see if that's not exactly what this sound, sounds like to you. Well, perhaps not exactly, but its within the ball park.

     After you are finished looking at this new and improved presentation, and contemplating the profound message contained therein, please use the comment box below the slide presentation frame, to tell me what you think. Is it great? Is it horrible? Is it somewhere in between? Please let me know. Here is the URL:

New and Improved Slide Presentation

     It is my hope, and prayer, that this new and improved presentation will greatly contribute, not just to the degree of clarity with which the members of our community can come to perceive the many profound dimensions of the current problem which hangs so heavily upon the hearts of all, but in equal measure, to the degree of clarity with which we can perceive and understand, what it is, that will actually solve that problem.

     Let me just say, as a footnote, every moment spent, last summer, programming the Grand Teton Sunrise web cam collection program, was a moment of great happiness for me. I am so happy that the effort could serve a wider purpose, one which I had no inkling of then, and not even until the very evening of January 22, 2004, when, after sending out the rallying call, I sat down to review the images for the day. Then I could see the purpose. The three slide shows will tell you what I found in this regard. Yes, a Great Sign in the Heavens, a great gift for all Ascended Master students, and for the organization, which they hope will succeed in the great mission of bringing the Teachings to all mankind.

     But in this regard, let me end, where I began. Let us not misqualify the Light the Masters have given us for this great mission, with the opaque patterns of falsehood. Let not lies radiate from our hearts, but only the truth, which the Teaching has set before us all too clearly. There is no place in an Ascended Master organization for those who support, or sympathize with the forces of Communism, to any degree. Let us heed this Teaching, and thereby reap the fruit of Safety and Victory inherent in it.

I Am, Your Little Brother,
An Advocate for the Healing of
the Nations, and the Restoration
of Wholeness unto the Entire
Divine Family. That is our
Mission, and Destiny.

Always Victory!
Sincerely,
Steven S. Showers, Editor
