Given that this is Part 1, there is one preliminary question that we must deal with before proceeding to the presentation of the evidence. In that regard, before we go any further, let us pose this most obvious of questions, and of course, let us answer it.

     Why is this phenomena not immediately evident to her defenders? In other words, when people hear that Rev. Linda Worobec is being challenged on a particular issue, and they feel that they must jump to her defense, why is it, that when they jump into that shadow, they don't experience that peculiar phenomena that we are all so familiar with, that we have all experienced at one time or another, when a cloud passes in front of the sun on what was just before a bright sunny day? There is not a person on earth who does not know what I am talking about. At the moment that cloud passes in front of the sun, a great swath of the landscape will all of sudden lose the brilliance of the sunlight, everything will become dim, everything will descend into a deep shadow, and there will be an instant chill in the air. This is not really a pleasant experience. In fact I think we can all sense this jarring and abrupt interruption in the process of photosynthesis in all the surrounding plant life. It's like several acres of whirring machinery within a large factory all of sudden shutting down. Sure, we adjust to it, and quickly. But the moment the warmth of the sunshine leaves us, we feel we have lost something very special.

     Why don't the defenders of Rev. Linda Worobec sense, at a soul level, an equivalent range of sensations that would report to them the loss of the sunlight the very moment they jump into that deep shadow of willful ignorance that surrounds her, round about, on each of the 360 degrees of the circle?

     I believe there are two reasons. While we can discuss these two reasons separately, and apart form one another, it is best to keep in mind that they are operating within the psychology of Linda Worobec's defenders as a single two dimensional unit.

     The first reason has to do with the possibility that the sun center of wisdom is not shining strongly within their world in the first place. This is not automatic after all.

     The Teaching describes a procedure the soul must follow over a period of years, or even lifetimes, to bring about that blessed situation wherein the sun center of wisdom has broken through, and now brilliantly illuminates the inner landscape. The soul would have had to commit itself to making the necessary effort over many years to clear those skies, for there to be any certainty whatsoever, that on the day they would encounter the rebellion of Rev. Linda Worobec, that they would be, at that moment, already standing in that bright landscape. When the soul has prepared itself in this manner, having been brought by the Ascended Masters to an awareness of what it means to stand in the bright sunlight, when it comes to pass that the student is beckoned to step into a shadow, that soul will quickly recognize the interruption of the descending Light. And it will not be fooled into confusing that darkness with the Light. That soul will quickly step back into the light.

      Unfortunately, for many people, who have not made this effort in years or lifetimes previous, when circumstances conspire to bring them into contact with the rebellion of Rev. Linda Worobec in the present moment, their landscape will already be under some cloud cover, whether it is deep or moderate who is to say. But this much we can say. In that situation, the additional shadow that enfolds them when this extra layer of cloud cover passes overhead, or is positioned statically overhead in this case, is not immediately evident or unusual. They simply do not notice the deeper shadow.

     In this case, when the sunlight is blocked, it cannot provide the soul with the power of universal discrimination. Under this cloud cover, and within this deeper shadow, the soul is relegated, unfortunately, to use the false light of the ego, supported, and buttressed by the ego of the rebel, to decide what is right, and what is wrong. And these decisions invariably result in the soul taking steps deeper into the shadows. For of a truth, this is an upside down world, where the intensity of the darkness is confused with the sun center of truth and wisdom (which is now hidden). Having no other guiding star, the soul will tend to step towards that intensity of darkness, and the rebel makes this an easy thing to do, because the rebel asserts loudly and proudly, though falsely and deceptively, that he, or she, has spiritual authority.

     It should be noted, in connection with this observation, that the Ascended Masters have given us the Teaching, the principles embodied therein, by which this mask of illusion can be penetrated.

     Secondly, I believe it is the case with all of her defenders, that each one harbors a pre-existing tendency towards idolatry, which provides an intellectual and emotional socket into which one or another personality, can be plugged in as circumstances require. Whoever they choose to plug into that socket of idolatry will become a false sun center (a shadow masquerading as the sun), before which the soul will bow down, and before which they will offer their adoration and unquestioning loyalty. Rock stars are good examples of this.

     Now, for souls who have heretofore been merged into the culture of Luciferian Rebellion (a culture based on human vanity), and that describes all of us to one degree or another, this is nearly instinctual. Over many lifetimes the soul has become deeply stained with this habit pattern of looking for something to worship, and settling for idols rather than Divine Principle.

     The idol of first choice is of course the not self which is epitomized, I believe, by the soul's sense of pride in the notion that all of its choices are perfect, a false belief tenaciously defended on the surface of being, but not believed at all by the soul deep down inside, creating that seething cauldron of self-doubt and fear in which the body of the soul itself is being continually dissolved.

     And it is this not-self that requires additional outer idols in the form of people, most often fallen angels, to provide points of stability to an inner world that is characterized by the constantly shifting sands of doubt, fear, and anxiety.

     Only those who are the most vigilant will be able to avoid being pulled into the sticky and clinging tentacles of this pre-existing propensity.

     This means that many people will not be able to avoid this. In fact, it is predictable and understandable that the leaders of this church will fill one or more of these idolatry based sockets in the heavenly firmament of the fear ridden soul. There they stand and "shine". The moment any one of these false stars is challenged, the soul will feel immediately, that the stability of its own world is coming under attack, and the soul will feel compelled thereby to defend that idol, just as one would try to reach out and hold the house steady when the foundations are being shaken by an earthquake. Of course in reality this is futile, but in the world of the human imagination anything is possible. The interesting thing about this, is that under the great strain of this stress producing situation in which the validity of their idol is being directly challenged, their attention will be focused more sharply upon the idol, and that idol will therefore appear to shine even brighter, and they will tend to cozy up to her even more closely, feeling even more warm and comfortable in her presence.

     For example, in response to one of my previous articles which set forth the evidence, in eight parts, that showed conclusively that Rev. Linda Worobec told an outright lie about the Messenger's affinity for Beatles music, one of her defenders wrote to me, and she put this is in the subject line: "HAIL LINDA WOROBEC!!! GOD IS WITH YOU!!! HAIL LINDA WOROBEC!!!"

     Such is the dilemma of human delusion, the mechanism of which is the imagination under the control of darkness, rather than light. In this respect, the viewing screen of the imagination has been left, through neglect, smudged and dirty and therefore it is more easily populated by the dark images which pour out in an uncontrolled manner from the main projector which is powered by the light bulb of fear, rather than the light bulb of wisdom. Fear is always folly. And so the movies are always foolish. But, the consciousness of the soul interacts with these delusionary images which appear on the viewing screen, feeling the fear invoked thereby, feeling the hot pincers of anxiety invoked thereby, and will invariably move its feet away from those pincers, thinking incorrectly, that it is moving in the direction of freedom. But, one cannot run away from fear. Fear must be conquered by the power of light, that's right, the power of sunlight. When the substance of fear itself is dissolved, that condition is the only true freedom that there is.

     Therefore, when people run way from fear, they will always find that they have run into the arms of an even greater darkness. And in this case, what the person has done, in stepping away from what it fears, fearing the fall of the false star, and therefore stepping in to support it the more, is to step more deeply into that thick shadow of ignorance which lies beneath that idol, that false star, that solidly opaque matrix of rebellion, which has blocked out the true sun shine of wisdom from on high.

     If the reader will examine this very closely, I believe that you will see that it is fear that makes all of this possible. The tendency towards idolatry is founded upon a very complex mechanism of fear which generates all manner of incorrect images within the imagination which makes it appear that the right thing to do is to step closer to the idol, in closer support of the idol. And when the soul does that, it gets immediate inner feedback, feeling a false sense of comfort, because the soul believes that it has escaped what it fears most, which is the fall of the idol. But the problem with this, is that fears have no basis in reality. When decisions are made on the basis of things that are not real, this only brings to the soul more of those things that are not real. And that means more fear, which means more inner torment.

     We have evidence which shows conclusively that what I have described in this introduction, is exactly, precisely, and indubitably, what happens when a person comes to the defense of Rev. Linda Worobec. That's right. In exactly the same manner whereby a person who steps off a high cliff is guaranteed to fall straight down, it is likewise absolutely and positively predictable, that when a person comes to the defense of Rev. Linda Worobec, they will be stepping into the deepest shadow of ignorance. What follows, is the first installment of that evidence.

     The first thing to note, is that Maria chose the number 144, and that was the number which was the closest to the final number of people who responded to our first poll. That number is the signature, as you are all aware, of the intercession of Sanat Kumara in the redeeming of the divine mission of this planet. If Sanat Kumara, and the 144,000 who accompanied him, had chosen to stay home, planet earth would have been allowed to disintegrate under the weight of darkness that was then upon it. Likewise, if Maria had chosen not to participate in our contest, the bringing forth of these revelations would not have been possible, and this important contribution to the redemption of the divine mission of this organization would not have been made.

     The second thing to note, is that in her response to the news that she had won the contest, she explained that classical music was a tradition in her home, and that she was proud of the fact that she was passing those values onto her children who, under her guidance, were being taught to play various musical instruments. She gave us the clearest impression that she was an advocate of the musical values that the Ascended Masters endorse.

     But on the other hand, she then gave us the clearest sign that she had stepped into one of the deepest shadows of ignorance in her defense of Rev. Linda Worobec. That's right. Clearly understanding what the controversy was all about, she nevertheless wanted to make the statement that she had personally attended the Opus V performance in King Arthur's Court on July 4, 2003. It was during this performance that our Church Manager Rev. Linda Worobec performed a Beatles tune on the Altar of the Holy Grail. And there was something inside of Maria that wanted everyone to know that there was nothing wrong with that performance. As the reader might be aware, I published her statement verbatim on the Journal Front Page for May 2004, under the title, "We Have a Winner!"

     I will include that quote here to save the reader from having to go to another web page. Maria wrote:

"I am happy and surprised to be the winner of these 2 CD's and you can be sure they will be listened to often. After singing for more then twenty years in a church choir in Holland, I moved with my family to the U.S.A. in 1988. I am a 'professional' mom of three children for almost nineteen years (I homeschool). My two daughters and one son play a total of seven instruments. Just to give you a taste of how important (classical) music is in my life. I visited your website once and I didn't partake in your poll. At this point in time I just like to make the statement that I truly enjoyed the concert in K.A.C on July 4, 2003. I believe myself to be very sensitive to music (ask my teenagers! and they will tell you that I vocally oppose any music that is not 'in tune' with what I perceive as 'good music') and during that performance of Opus V, I 'sensed' an enormous outpour of the joy and love through their music."

     Of course, the contradiction between the two pieces of information that she offered was clearly and unmistakably evident. And I took the opportunity right then and there to highlight and underscore that contradiction. This is what I said, in part:

" ... I have [received] similar reports before. The whole of the concert may be precisely what Maria, and others have reported. I don't doubt it. These were professional performers who had been trained to appeal to the devotional nature of the Children of God. And they do it skillfully. But, from what Maria herself says, I would bet you a thousand dollars that she would not allow one of her children to play one piece of Beatles music in their home. Tell me Maria if this is not true."

     Given her stated allegiance to high musical standards for her children, I pointed out to her, that she would never allow her children to play a Beatles Tune, so why should we allow our church manager to do it? In other words, why is it acceptable for our Church Manager to do something that she would not allow her own children to do?

     After this was published, I offered her a direct challenge to explain this contradiction, and I reserved a place on the front page for her response. This challenge was published (see it here) on the front page as well, along with space for her response.

     I notified her of this challenge via email. And she responded with a very interesting and unexpected piece of information.

     And here is where it gets really interesting. She tells me, that she is not going to respond to my challenge, at least not in public, but she goes on to tell me about the problems she has had with her rebellious teenagers, who have actually succumbed to the Rock Beat! And you will see how this fact helps to illustrate even further, the very destructive effects of the rebellious behavior of our Church Manager Rev. Linda Worobec, when it comes to her intransigent sympathy for the Beatles. (If you don't see that immediately, I assure you, you will by the time you finish this article).

     After discussing the issue with Maria, she agreed to let me share her statement with the community. This is what she wrote:

"I would like to tell you that it is quite a challenge for me to keep the Mother Flame in my family. Up until three years ago the music performed and listened to in my house was of the Ascended Master quality (I believe). My children still play 'good' music but my two oldest (15 and 18 years old) developed (God knows how!) a taste for the rock beat. After many struggles, quarrels, and adjustments to new music rules in my house, I reluctantly bow to their exercise of their Free Will (as long as I am not confronted with their taste of music under the roof of my house or car). To me it was making a choice between two priorities in my life, harmony in music or harmony between my family members."

     Maria also remarked to me later, that she sees a powerful 'I don't care' attitude sweeping over teenagers as an epidemic. She added, "Be aware that parents have to deal with an enormous amount of rebellion against and even denial of the Teachings of the Ascended Masters (even if they grew up in it; about a year ago my children listened to "The Science of Rhythm" tapes!)."

     Sound familiar? In talking about her teenagers, she could just as well be talking about Rev. Linda Worobec.

     Now, I would point out that this information exposes my previously stated premise as false. I would have lost that thousand dollar bet. I assumed from what Maria had said, that she had maintained the highest musical standards in regards to her own children. And that assumption formed the basis of my challenge. If you hold your children to the highest standards, why not hold our church manager to the highest standards? But this was not the case. As you can see from her later remarks, she had surrendered to the rebellion of her teenagers. In those statements she made clear that she had already fought a battle with her rebellious teenagers on the issue of Rock Music, that she tried to hold the line, but it came to the point that if there was to be peace in her household, she would have to bend to the freewill of her teenagers. She did not bend to their freewill happily, but only reluctantly. She too would have hoped for a better outcome. I told her, that while we all would have hoped, in the abstract, for a more victorious outcome, we cannot find any fault with her for the decision that she made.

     Now, right at this point, let us gather together all the cognitive resources of our soul, and focus on this amazing fact, that in her initial response to me about her approval of the performance in King Arthur's Court on July 4, 2003, we have in that statement, an example, before our very eyes, of the falling of an appalling shadow of ignorance over the heart, the soul, and the mind of Maria.

     Given the fact that she had fought this battle with her own children, and she had lost that battle, and she did not feel good about it at all, you would think she would have been the more sensitive to the issue of compromise on this point when it came to the same issue with a member of the leadership of this church. This would be a reasonable conclusion. But that was not the case. In fact, she was persuaded to side with the compromiser again.

     Why did she side with the compromiser again, given her own experience in this regard, and given her own heartfelt desire to have her own children free from the ravages of Rock Music? The answer is, that by coming to the defense of Rev. Linda Worobec, Maria entered into that deep shadow of ignorance which makes up the aura of Linda Worobec. It is not a small shadow either. Rev. Linda Worobec soaks up the Light from the people in this community, and her chakras, operating at a frequency of pride and rebellion, turns that light to darkness. And so, the shadow is huge, and it is very thickly opaque. In that shadow of ignorance, the Christ Mind, and the illumination thereof, is not operating, and the most obvious connections are not made. In other words, connections that are absolutely self- evident and radiantly obvious when the sunlight is illuminating the landscape, become hidden when the sunlight is withdrawn, or blocked. Under the influence of this shadow, the soul is blind to those obvious connections. And so, Maria was drawn into that shadow, and into that condition of blindness described.

     And what is the most obvious connection here for Maria to make? It is this. Here we have the Manager of our Church behaving in a way that would make it more difficult for Maria herself to win the battle for the souls of her own children! Isn't that amazing! One of the most important things to a mother, is her children. And one of the greatest enemies of the mother, are those individuals who contribute to the destruction of the soul's of her children. And she had a representative of that great enemy before her. What did she do? Did she kick the enemy in the shins? No. She gave the enemy a big hug of support.

     Now, as noted, Maria was in the midst of the battle for the soul's of her own children. She did her best to save her children from the ravages of rock music. She fought that battle, and in a certain respect, she lost, and that loss is a bitter pill, a bitter pill. And that bitterness, and that sorrow is communicated in her statement above. She is not happy that she was forced to capitulate to the rebellion of her teenagers. And you can be sure that in the midst of that battle, that if her children had been aware of the sympathy of Rev. Linda Worobec for Beatles music, they would have used that to defeat more thoroughly Maria's efforts to save her children form the ravages of Rock music. Her children would have been able to say:

"Don't talk to me about the destructivity of Rock Music. The manager of YOUR OWN CHURCH loves Beatle's music. What a hypocrite you are for trying to tell me that Rock music is bad. Your own Church Manager loves the people who made Rock Music what it is today. The most famous Rock Musicians in the history of the world are the Beatles. Your OWN CHURCH MANAGER loves the Beatles. Don't talk to me about the destructivity of Rock music."

     Would Maria have been happy to hear these words come out of the mouth of her teenagers? I think not. But if her worst nightmares came to pass in this regard, and she heard those words come out of the mouth of her teenagers, who would she blame, her teenagers? I think not.

     In Linda Worobec, the enemy stands before her, but she sees the enemy not.

     This gives you an idea of the depth of that shadow of willful ignorance that surrounds Rev. Linda Worobec. It is so deep, so dark, that it can make a mother forget, A MOTHER FORGET, literally forget, the best interests of her own children, interests that she actually has in her very own heart! She has those interests in her very own Heart! She has proven that. She has been on the battlefield in defense of those interests! She has fought that battle! She can recount that battle! Yet she was made to forget them, ignore them! A shadow that can cause a Mother to forget these things, I declare it to you, that there is actually, no deeper shadow than that. It is pitch black.

     Clearly, if Maria had been able to make that obvious connection, she would have seen Rev. Linda Worobec as the very ally of the enemy that she was trying to fight in her own household. But she did not make that connection.

     Now, this is our first of several examples of a soul being drawn, unconsciously, into the deepest shadow of ignorance, as she feels the need to come to the defense of a rebel in our midst, who is, as we have pointed out, an ally of the forces of darkness who are intent on destroying the souls of her own children!

     And Maria's vulnerability in this regard, is in the indulgence of a condition of divided loyalties. This is too common among the children of God. This is another way to look at the operation of the phenomena of idolatry within the soul's psychology. You can see that she has a loyalty to the principles that the Ascended Masters advocate in regards to music. But the weight of her devotion swings more readily to a personality who appears to have authority, than it does to the Divine Principle which is at issue. And that is the definition of idolatry. Because of this propensity towards idolatry, the rebel, standing in a position of apparent authority can entice the children of God to step into a deep shadow of ignorance, that actually enfolds them in darkness, which causes them to become disconnected from the light, disconnected from the rays of illumination that would otherwise expose the truth.

     I believe I have made this point clear enough. And I will have more examples to present in the days ahead.

     I would end though, by underscoring and highlighting the most important dimension of serendipity that surrounds Maria's entry, and the winning of our first contest.

     We can see from Maria's contribution, much more clearly, that parents who have teenagers are facing a very great challenge when it comes to protecting their children from the ravages of rock music. It is a battle we would all like them to win. But it is a ferocious battle, as Maria testifies. And the outcome is not certain at all. And so, it would be nice, it would be useful, it would be productive, to have all members of our community supporting these parents in every possible way to be victors in this battle. And this includes the leaders of this church.

     And therefore, this further exposes the destructive nature of Rev. Linda Worobec's contribution to this community. She is not providing the parents of this community with support in this regard. Quite to the contrary, she is contributing to the defeat of Ascended Master purpose in every Ascended Master household. Actually, and this is a fact, she is providing the forces of darkness with an additional sword to use to cut down the best efforts of these parents. This sword is placed in the hands of the demons first. When a soul, wrapped all around in the immaturity of a teenage body and mind, is first being pressed to choose, these demons will hand this sword to the soul, and tempt the soul to use it to cut down the pronouncements of the Ascended Masters on this subject. And once the sword feels comfortable in their teenage hands, they will use it to cut down the messenger of truth, in the person of their parents, or whoever. This is the argument that every teenager in this community can now make, thanks to Rev. Linda Worobec:

"Don't talk to me about the destructivity of Rock Music. The manager of YOUR OWN CHURCH loves Beatle's music. What a hypocrite you are for trying to tell me that Rock music is bad. Your own Church Manager loves the people who made Rock Music what it is today. The most famous Rock Musicians in the history of the world are the Beatles. Your OWN CHURCH MANAGER loves the Beatles. She performs their music on the Altar, the most sacred place in your church! Don't talk to me about the destructivity of Rock music. Clean up your own house before you worry about mine."

     We also need to be clear about another important fact. Rev. Linda Worobec is not placing just one sword into the hands of these demons who are intent on placing it into the hands of these little children at the crucial point of decision making. She is handing these demons TWO swords. I have just described the first sword. This is the second sword. This is the second argument that every teenager in this community can now make, thanks to the public statements of Rev. Linda Worobec:

"Don't talk to me about the destructivity of Rock Music. The Messenger, the very leader of YOUR OWN CHURCH likes Beatle's music. What a hypocrite you are for trying to tell me that Rock music is bad. The Very Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood likes the people who made Rock Music what it is today. The most famous Rock Musicians in the history of the world are the Beatles. Your OWN MESSENGER likes the Beatles. Don't talk to me about the destructivity of Rock music. Clean up your own house before you worry about mine."

     These two arguments effectively disarm the parents of this community in this great battle. And who is the sole provider of these arguments? Rev. Linda Worobec, and of course the Church Leadership which surrounds her with warm kisses and praises of support.

     But that's not all.

     Maria mentioned the fact that she had her children listen to the one and only packaged lecture given by the Messenger on this subject. That would be the Science of Rhythm album mentioned above, and the same album that we will give as a prize to the winner of our current contest (see below). Obviously, Maria's teenagers were not interested in the message contained in that lecture. But there are other teenagers who might be open to the message. But the problem is, the two arguments made possible by Rev. Linda Worobec rebellious behavior and statements on this issue, will help drive even those souls away from that fountain of truth.

     I believe that it is completely fair to say that her behavior and statements on this point, effectively gut the power of that lecture, in terms of ever convincing any teenager in this community to heed it. Given that this is the legacy of our Messenger on one of the most important issues of our time, to gut the power of that legacy, is no act of friendship, or loyalty to the Messenger. It is a bold act of betrayal.

     Another defender of Rev. Linda Worobec made this comment to me in a recent email. Commenting on the Beatles, he said:

"Not all their music was accompanied by a rock beat, Not all their lyrics were bad. Indeed there are some who feel that the Beatles somewhat ironically, became a springboard for the spiritual awakening that followed."

     This came out of the mouth of a Keeper of the Flame. Thanks to Rev. Linda Worobec, this view is gaining credence within our community.

     As you can see, Rev. Linda Worobec is not our friend, no, not in the least. A friend would not put such a sword, let alone two swords, into the hands of a child.

     The best thing that we can do for this community, is to discharge her forthwith. To undo this damage, and this damage must be undone, the collective leadership must issue a statement that totally repudiates her sympathy with the Beatles in any form. This must be done for the sake of the children. This must be done for the sake of the parents of this community who are in the very midst of this battle. And that repudiation must be strong, and decisive, and set forth against the unquestionable backdrop of the discharge of this individual from all offices of authority.

     Such decisive action can only come about when the members of this organization are nudged, in greater numbers than is currently the case, into a condition of wakefulness on this matter. To that end, I would plead with the reader to participate in the current opinion poll described below. This opinion poll deals with the two lies that Rev. Linda Worobec has told about the Messenger's supposed affinity for Beatles music. This relates to the second sword that Rev. Linda Worobec has placed into the hands of the demons for the purpose of cutting down the truth, that I have already described above. Please participate in this poll. Please participate in this poll. Please participate in this poll. And once you participate in this poll, then go and tell every Keeper of the Flame about it, and encourage them to visit this important polling place.

     The only hope for this organization is in the raising up of another Light, comparable in intensity, to the heart of Elizabeth Clare Prophet. We, the Lighthouse Keepers, must lay the groundwork for the appearance of that one. We must establish such traditions of excellence in the Light, that that One will feel perfectly comfortable in this vineyard, where there will be no need to be rebuking demons here, and there, wherever she or he goes throughout the Royal Teton Ranch.

     Let the carpet of purity, of sanctity be laid out before him, on all 360 degrees of the circle, before he arrives.

     Obviously if the forces of darkness have hold of the leadership, which is the case today, traditions of darkness is what they will establish. And they have begun. And believing these traditions of darkness to have the sanction of God himself, as the leaders of the Catholic Church today believe concerning their own traditions of darkness, the One raised up to the Lead the Children into the Light will be seen by them as the Enemy, and that one will be rejected. For of a truth, as that One enters in, what will be required of him (or her) as the first order of business, but to challenge the traditions of darkness? And in so doing, he (or she) will be seen as the enemy of the entrenched leadership.

     Now, there are many who look at this scene with despair, and wonder how this dilemma can be overcome, and finding no answers within the shadows of their doubt ridden minds, they run off into the woods with their tails between their legs, and they make friends with the wolves, and they dance the night away, and in the morning, their shredded flesh they find within the stomach of the beast. But it is not so with the Lighthouse Keepers who have kept the vigil in the midst of the green meadow, loving the fragrance of the flowers that yet thrive there, even before this towering fortress of doom, and in the face of apparent odds overwhelming, our minds are steadied and even inspired by the beauty of many courageous thoughts which God our Father has ignited within our hearts. And so, before us, we do not see defeat. But rather, an opportunity to manifest a Monumental Victory, the likes of which the earth has not known, no, not in many hundreds of thousands of years.

     We say, let this battle be fought now, and won now, by US. Let us give our New Leader the freedom, and the opportunity, to lead us all to higher ground.

     We, the Lighthouse Keepers, are laying the groundwork for the appearance of that New Leader who will shine more brightly than Elizabeth Clare Prophet.

     We are laying the ground work, first, by standing firm in opposition to the establishment of traditions of darkness in this organization. At the first sign of the establishment of such traditions, we are saying "NO." We will not stand for it. We will give our lives if necessary to stop the establishment of the traditions of darkness in this organization. In this, we are establishing a counter Tradition of Divine Integrity, a tradition that will form an appropriate foundation for the new Standard Bearer of Divine Unity that will appear.

     In that respect, we are the Contras and we are not ashamed of it, even though the forces of darkness spit and hiss in our faces.

     We are laying the groundwork, second, by keeping the all important vigil at the Altar, making the calls that give the Ascended Hosts the authority to progressively bind the forces and the influences of darkness that currently have a strangle hold upon the minds of those in leadership today. Yes it is true. Their weaving of that dirty demoralizing tapestry of spiritual defeat and failure will be brought to a halt, and their dastardly work to date will be unwoven thread by thread, until it is completely undone, and completely gone, the huge remaining pile of dirty threads thrown into the furnace and converted in an instant by those white-hot flames into a puff of thick black smoke. If any of the people who currently sit at this loom of rebellion and ignorance want to be part of this organization in that day, they must get up from their ill-begotten work now, and leave it, and repudiate it forever more.

     Now, without the Ritual of Exorcism performed daily by the Lighthouse Keepers for these specific purposes, there is no power that can stop the spread of darkness in this organization. The Leadership directs the attention of the student body to outer problems, they will not allow the cannons to be aimed in their own direction, and therefore, that massive collective decree power is directed away from the hordes of rats that are eating away at the granary of our heritage at this very moment. I should have said "mouses", I know, it is a softer more cuddly word.

     But given the fact that the Lighthouse Keepers are giving this Ritual of Exorcism every day, all clouds of despair are pushed off well beyond the horizon by the radiance of our shining faces. There is no reason to despair any more. The Victory will be ours to the extent we stay faithful and constant, and very focused and one-pointed. All attempts to establish traditions of darkness in this organization must be, and will be challenged and turned back. Nothing will be swept under the rug. No, never again. All individuals who are instruments of such attempts to establish traditions of darkness in this organization, will be challenged, and they will either come to their senses, or they will be cast out.

     It is true, that a great oil slick of sympathy for the devil and his traditions has been poured out from the broken hull of Linda Worobec's electronic belt, upon the heads of all the little sea shore birds along the once wide, sweeping and glistening white beaches of this community. And so, a great clean up effort must be made before this shining new leader can appear. Let us work together in this great effort. Let these beaches become glistening white again with our total respect for what is divine.

     And then, in this atmosphere, where the integrity of the Teaching is honored above all things, that is the atmosphere in which this New Leader can step forth. Make no mistake about it, this HONOR is the essence of Unity. The magnetic power of Unity which will flow forth from our New Leader, galvanizing millions, through the outposts of our own hearts, will flow along these lines of pre-established honor. Slow down. This is worth thinking about.

     That honor, and that honor alone, will establish the atmosphere in which this New Leader can step forth, whereby the shining Light of his heart, or her heart, can galvanize the membership into one unified force again, and we can all therefore, anticipate that brighter day, wherein all can move forward again as One Radiant Beam if Divine Victory. Remember, principles, not personages, are the conduits of pure light throughout all cosmos.

     And so, in closing, let us direct our attention to the forest floor, where the ants travel, even from tree to tree.

     All the fat little birds who have been pushed out of the nest by the Mother, stand around on the forest floor in great consternation. "Where did she go?" they chirp chirp chirp. "What happened to our cuddly nest of proximity to her great wings?" they tweet tweet tweet. "Ewwwwwww", they coo coo coo, "Mommy dearest!, where's my wormy breakfast? My tummy is sooooo hungry!" And this is what the wise owl says to them, and sternly, "You must either learn to fly, or you will die, devoured by the predators that roam the forests in the dead of night." This is the way of Mother nature.

     Maitreya's Clipper Ship will sail on! But it will sail on with a crew of Light, not a crew of darkness. Mark my words.

     Find out what you can do to help reclaim Maitreya's Clipper Ship for the purposes of the Ascended Masters.

     One of the most important goals of the Teaching, from the standpoint of the Ascended Masters, was to give their students the tools they would need to help them understand the very destructive consequences of indulging a condition of rebellion in a member of the leadership of the Mystery School.

     The Masters knew that such tools would be desperately needed, and they knew this from past experience wherein they personally observed from on high, many Mystery Schools simply imploding and disintegrating because there was no challenging and turning back of the presence of a creeping and expanding rebellion in the leadership.

     This is what they have learned from the school of hard knocks. One of the things that makes such challenges exceedingly difficult to mount, is the fact that the condition of rebellion itself, will always be minimized by those in leadership, who are themselves the very progenitors of rebellion, in as much as they hold power, and they set the agenda, and they decide what will, and won't be talked about. From their high and holy pulpits, they will invariably offer up arguments against all attempts to institute principles of accountability. And moreover, when it comes to the memory of any particular act of rebellion, they are the first to take out the broom, lift the edge of the rug, and with some ceremony, sweep the pile of dirt underneath, to be seen no more. And in this way, they convince many to simply "Move On."

     Clearly, it was the universal conclusion of Cosmic Councils that something had to be done (this time around) to give the Children of God some advantage in this situation. And therefore, the Masters methodically set forth within the body of the Teaching, those principles which the Children of God could use, to see through the deception of the rebels in leadership, to help them understand that in fact, contrary to the assertions of these rebels, that rebellion cannot be safely swept under the rug. In fact there are horrendous consequences associated with allowing leadership to sweep rebellion under the rug. And if the Children of God could have the tools that would help them understand this, in the face of the ongoing attempt of the rebels to pull the wool over their eyes, the Masters felt that this might give the Children of God what they would need to stand fast, and to reverse all trends towards rebellion before the poisonous fruit thereof would have a chance to fully ripen.

     There are, therefore, many jewels in the Teaching, placed there, for just this purpose. And we will look at just one of those herein. And you will see how indeed these principles can be described as jewels, for much light radiates through them, so much so, that a whole room can be filled with illumination and understanding.

     Of course, there is another dilemma. The focal point of rebellion is always in the debasement of the Teaching itself. When rebels debase the Teaching, and they force the multitudes to swallow that debasement, what they are doing is desensitizing the people to the value of the Teaching. And therefore, because they have become a little bit more desensitized to the value of the teaching, they are less likely to look to it, for the insight they need to see through the deceptions that the rebels are attempting to foist upon them. This is a little bit like subliminally programming the people who live in the desert to hesitate and become fearful whenever they approach an oasis. There is a new voice that speaks out of the subconscious which says in effect, "There is nothing there you can take seriously." When it comes to the water that bubbles up from the central spring, you can swish it around in your mouth perhaps, but you don't need to swallow it.

     We can understand, then, that rebellion always initiates a vicious circle, nay, a vicious descending spiral into the blackness of ignorance and confusion. The formation of this spiral must be stopped and reversed before it gathers any significant downward momentum in the minds of the people.

     No one said it would be easy. This life and death struggle has been going on for billions of years throughout the various planetary homes that populate this universe. In places, victories have been won. We intend to win a victory here.

     Our intent, then, is to bring forth one of these tools which the Masters have placed in the Teaching, one of those important principles, that will help the members of this organization identify the downward spiral of rebellion that has been inaugurated by the rebellious and destructive activities of Rev. Linda Worobec and her supporters, and to help them understand why this spiral needs to be arrested.

     This particular principle was discovered in a dictation by Beloved Mighty Victory, given July 5, 1988, at FREEDOM 1988, at the Royal Teton Ranch, published in Pearls of Wisdom, Vol. 31, No. 75, November 6, 1988. This is the fifteen paragraph in the dictation. The Cosmic Clock designation of this paragraph is 1/12. Which is to say, this is the first paragraph of a new primary/outer cycle charted on the 1 o'clock line of God-Love. The charting of the secondary/inner cycle begins on the 12 o'clock line of God- Power :

"These angels of Jophiel are tender teachers. But make no mistake: If you have valued and prized the discipline of the First and Fourth Rays, I can tell you, it is only preparation for that of the Second. For the discipline of the Second Ray, beloved, is the precision of every petaled vibration of a thousand-petaled lotus. Truly the perception of the Gemini Mind of God is unto you an open door."

     There is a principle embedded in this paragraph that we can use, that we can apply to help us understand more deeply, and more thoroughly, the depth of folly represented by Linda Worobec's performance of a Beatles tune on the Altar of the Holy Grail, and the depth of the folly associated with being complicit with that behavior, either by direct support of her, or by remaining silent in the face of her transgressions.

     Towards this noble end, I would direct your attention to these two sentences: "If you have valued and prized the discipline of the First and Fourth Rays, I can tell you, it is only preparation for that of the Second. For the discipline of the Second Ray, beloved, is the precision of every petaled vibration of a thousand-petaled lotus."

     The Master speaks of a lotus blossom with one-thousand petals. And he tells us that each of the petals has a vibration. And he sets before us this goal, of knowing the vibration of each petal, and holding the vibration of each petal. We understand, then, that the discipline of the second ray, is to first know the vibration of each of the thousand petals, and then to hold the vibration. To know the vibration of each of the petals, implies a course of study. And you can be sure, that the principles set forth in the Teaching set forth the vibration of each of these one-thousand petals. Once the vibration is known, then the discipline extends to holding that vibration. This implies that the soul will confront forces and powers that will tempt it to let go of a particular vibration. When confronted with the temptation to let go of the vibration, the soul must remember the vibration which it must hold, and it must make the effort to hold it.

     I believe that forgetfulness is certainly one of the forces of darkness that our steadfastness in this discipline must defeat first. And the dark cloud of forgetfulness must be pushed back every day.

     Now, I would just point out, that all of the vibrational categories represented in the one-thousand petaled lotus, are all within the realm of ILLUMINATION. I am assuming, and safely so, that the Master is talking about a lotus blossom that represents pure Light. And therefore, each petal represents one aspect of pure illumination.

     Therefore, before one even gets to this process whereby we learn the characteristic vibration of each of the thousand petals, the whole of the crown chakra must be raised into the region of illumination. And this points to the importance of the first of these two sentences: "If you have valued and prized the discipline of the First and Fourth Rays, I can tell you, it is only preparation for that of the Second ..."

     What does that really mean? It means that by, and through, the discipline of the First and Fourth Rays, the crown chakra is raised, as a whole, into the region of illumination. Once that is accomplished, THEN the soul can begin this study of the various vibrational states of each of these thousand petals, and learn what it means to recognize and hold those vibrations.

     And so, let us consider this subject, concerning the discipline of the First Ray. While I am reticent to try to condense this particular subject into just a couple of sentences, the task at hand requires it, so I hope you will forgive me. The discipline of the First Ray, deals primarily with the fundamentals of the Divine Law, recognizing the Divine Law, understanding the Divine Law, and holding fast to the Divine Law. Within the framework of the Divine Law, you have the outworking of Divine Purpose, according to a Divine Plan. And so the discipline of the First Ray encompasses the anchoring of a certain level of understanding of the Divine Law, the Divine Purpose, and the Divine Plan. And at the center of all that, you have what? You have GOD. So, as part of the discipline of the First Ray, the soul learns anew what it means to Love God again. You see, there is no adherence to Divine Law, if there is no Love for God our Father and our Mother. This is a very basic truth. And so, what our Beloved Brother El Morya, as the Chohan of the First Ray, has before him, is this great task of re-igniting in us, and in all the evolutions of the earth, yes the flame of knowledge, regarding the Law, but always working at the same time to emphasize the center, which is the re-ignition of a re-newed Love for God our Father and Mother. They are the authors of the law. To honor the law, we must again become endeared to the authors of it.

     The disciplines of purity, of the fourth ray, would encompass those fundamental practices which are designed to purify the four lower bodies, and the chakras, which will allow the First Ray Master to anchor an awareness of all of these points within our temple, to a degree where they will hold. The very first discipline of purity then, would be the daily invocation of the Violet Flame. Additionally, I believe another discipline of purity is in the area of precision and exactitude. When we have a hold upon a divine principle, the more clearly we can see and describe its form, shape, contours, and outline, the more purely it will reside within our consciousness.

     When some aspect of energy is said to be Pure in the divine sense, it represents exactly the original divine geometry that God first intended. The same is true when energy systems become complex and multifaceted. The issue of purity applies here as well. When we are talking about energy systems that are complex and multifaceted, this is where the principles of precision and exactness come into play. Precision and exactness describe characteristics of purity within complex and multifaceted energy systems. When we speak of precision and exactitude, we are of course speaking about correspondence to original divine blueprints. To the degree, in terms of precision and exactitude, that an energy system corresponds to the original divine blueprint, to that extent we can say that the quality of purity is present.

     Perhaps we could say that through the disciplines of the First Ray we anchor the substance of the law, which is like unto a rough diamond. And through the disciplines of Fourth Ray, that of purity, are the facets of the diamond cut. And looking ahead, through the disciplines of the Second Ray, are those facets polished, and made optimum for the transmission of Light.

     Allow me to hit the rewind button here, and go over that important initial ground that must be solidly understood, and held. Through the study of the law, through the understanding of the law, and through the adherence to the law, these disciplines of the First Ray, embody the process, by which, the crown chakra is raised into that region of total illumination, wherein the soul can only then begin to learn about the finer disciplines of the Second Ray, which deal with identifying and holding the precise vibrations of each of the thousand petals.

     Therefore, the First Ray disciplines have a direct link to the presence and activation of fundamental (first order) levels of illumination in the crown chakra.

     I wanted to mention here, that we have in the natural world, an analog for this process. Actually, there is more than one. I like the chandelier analog best, so I will start with that. And then move on to the issue of vibrational spectrums.

     Now, a ballroom chandelier, very large and ornate, which has sockets for a thousand light bulbs could represent the crown chakra. That is, if it were all lit up, and sparkling radiant over the polished floor populated by many whirling dancers. But in this case, in this old haunted house, all the light bulbs have long since burned out. And the soul has learned to live in this pitch black room. And after having bumped into the furniture a millions times, it has etched into its darkened mind, the approximate presence of everything in the room, and it has learned to take great pride in the fact that it can move around with relative ease without falling on its face more than one or two times a day. And so, in its best self-comforting modality, this blind soul says in its heart, I don't need any of that light, perhaps I remember it, perhaps I don't, but one thing I know for sure, is that I can get along just fine without it.

     But there are some people who find this situation untenable, and they call out to God, and who is it, but the Master El Morya, who knocks on the door, and in his hand he has instructions for the refurbishment of the chandelier. And he hands those instructions to the soul, and leaves. And there are many who, even though moments before they had despaired of the darkness, and they had made the call out of that despair, when they read those instructions, will nevertheless say in their hearts, On Second Thought, I don't need any of that light, I can get along just fine without it. They say this, because they don't like the instructions. And they throw the instructions into the nearest trash can, and make believe they are like a veritable ballerina as they deftly negotiate the obstacles in their little room, yes, without the assistance of that light.

     But for those who will follow the instructions, they will learn how to restore a basic level of power to the chandelier, and how to manufacture a few basic replacement bulbs that can be screwed into a few of the more strategic sockets, and when the light switch is once again flipped to the "ON" position, lo, illumination not only floods the chandelier, but the entire room. Ewww, what a mess! And then the cleanup can start in earnest. Perhaps they have successfully learned how to install the 12 basic light bulbs once again, but the chandelier has a thousand sockets, and a multitude of crystal ornaments which haven't been dusted off for centuries, so there is a lot of work to do, whew! a whole lot of work to do! even when the first rays of illumination shine forth.

     And so, it is the First Ray Master who has the instructions for successfully re-powering the crystal chandelier. That is the important lesson here.

     This principle can also be understood by using an analog that deals with vibrational spectrums. This explanatory approach can take advantage of the thousands of radio stations that currently populate the earth.

     Each of these radio stations, not as a group, but individually, illustrates the same principle. Each radio station has the potential of conveying to the ear, a very wide range of knowledge. And there is really no end to the kind of knowledge that a radio station can convey to our ears. Every type of music can be played over a radio station. Every issue under the sun can be talked about over a radio station. And this multiplicity of possibilities corresponds, conceptually, to the thousand petals of the lotus. As various kinds of music are played over this radio station, we can learn to differentiate between the types. Or as various subjects are discussed over the air on this radio station, we can learn to differentiate between each subject. As our minds identify each new subject, this would correspond to the identification of a new petal. As our minds identify each new musical type, this would correspond to the identification of a new petal as well. Perhaps these petals are arranged in layers, like we see in actual flowers, where one layer would correspond to particular broad category of knowledge, for example geology, and another layer, would correspond to another category of knowledge, for example light science.

     Now, for us to receive this knowledge, what has to happen first? All of this knowledge must be raised, in vibration, to the frequency on which the radio station is assigned to operate. This corresponds to the process of raising the crown chakra into the region of total illumination. For example, one of our local classical music stations broadcasts at 91.5 on the FM dial. That means, if we are going to hear it, that the radio station transmitter must generate a carrier wave at that higher frequency. And then, onto that carrier wave, this endless array of knowledge can be impressed. If the radio station did not generate that carrier wave first, nothing at all could be broadcast, and there would be a void at their position on the FM dial. That void would be symbolic of a crown chakra gone dark.

     In this example, the position of 91.5 on the FM dial, corresponds to 91.5 Mhz.

     (M=mega or million. hz = hertz. Hertz is the name of the inventor who discovered that energy waves oscillate at a certain number of cycles per second. Before someone had the bright idea of naming cycles per second after the guy who discovered them, they were called simply cycles per second. I remember when that was the case. One cycle represents the two alternate halves of a sign wave. In other words, in the span of one cycle, the energy rises from a point of zero potential, to a positive peak, and then smoothly descends back to zero, and through the zero point falling to negative peak, and then rises again to zero. A radio wave oscillating at 91.5 Mhz is doing this 91 million 500 thousand times in ONE SECOND. One cycle per second, become one Hertz in the late 1960's).

     As noted, 91.5 Mhz represents a radio wave oscillating at a frequency of 91,500,000 cycles per second. (91 million, 500 thousand, cycles per second). That is a very very high frequency. Impressed on that radio wave, using what they call frequency modulation, all information is impressed. Now, all the information that will be impressed on that radio wave is converted to electrical signals that oscillate from 0 to roughly 20,000 cycles per second. This corresponds to the frequency range of the human voice, and music (all things audible to the human ear). Real world sounds are sent into microphones which convert them to electrical signals in this frequency range. And then the electrical equipment associated with the radio station transmitter will then impress these sound oscillations upon the much higher frequency radio wave. And in this respect, these sound oscillations sort of ride on top, or ripple on top, of this much higher frequency radio wave. As you can see, this impressed information represents, proportionately, just a very tiny ripple upon a radio wave that is oscillating at a hugely higher frequency.

     One could visualize a solid wall of energy, perhaps built out of common clay bricks, that is one hundred miles high, and only a couple of feet thick which extends from one horizon to another, see it marching across the entire landscape before you, and imagine that at the very top of that wall, the wall will have ripples in it, and the amplitude of those ripples would not extend from peak to valley, more than a couple of inches.

     And so, the idea is, that this great wall has to be raised way way up, and on the very tip top of it, that is where the divine information is encoded. The great height of this wall represents the raising of the crown chakra as a whole up into the region of illumination.

     Raising up the frequency of this carrier wave corresponds to this process of fulfilling the disciplines of the First and Fourth rays, which, when fulfilled, will result in a crown chakra, raised out of the depths of the deepest darkness, into the full sunlight of total illumination. If one does not fulfill the disciplines of the First and Fourth Rays, the crown chakra cannot be raised into that region of illumination.

     (For those technically erudite readers, who know what frequency modulation is exactly, I understand that they will not like my metaphor, because it is not precisely accurate in terms of the relationship of the modulation, to the entire radio wave that is being transmitted. Actually, in this example, the entire wave is being frequency shifted, to correspond to the impressed information, so there is actually no part of it that would correspond to my image of a stationary wall. I thought of using an amplitude modulation example, but that has the same problem. In that case the amplitude of the entire wave would be changing to reflect the impressed information. And no part of it would correspond to a stationary wall either. But in both cases, my wall metaphor works appropriately to describe the relative proportions of the frequency of the carrier wave, to the frequency of the impressed information. There is a huge difference between the two.)

     I would just note, that there is also an analog to this real world multiplicity of radio stations. In this regard, this multiplicity corresponds to the multiplicity of the children of God, each one being asked to raise up the vibration of their own crown chakra, and take their assigned place within the divine broadcasting spectrum. If they do not do this, the spectrum will be empty. In other words, the angels turn on their radios, and sweep the dial across the spectrum, and they only hear static, where there ought to be heard a lot of very important divine activity.

     Now, when the angels tune their radio to the point in the divine spectrum assigned to Linda Worobec, there is silence at that point in the spectrum. Why? This individual has not fulfilled the disciplines of the First Ray, and therefore, she has not allowed her crown chakra to be raised into the region of divine illumination. And so, there is divine silence at that point in the divine spectrum.

     And if you like my chandelier analog better, well, it is not hard to imagine a totally dark room now is it?

     How do we know that Linda Worobec has not fulfilled the disciplines of the First Ray? Let's step through this in a very methodical manner.

     Again, what are the disciplines of the First Ray primarily? The disciplines of the First Ray, deal primarily with the fundamentals of the Divine Law, recognizing the Divine Law, understanding the Divine Law, and holding fast to the Divine Law. In a nutshell, the instructions handed to us by the Chohan of the First Ray, Beloved El Morya, teach us how to incrementally raise the frequency of our crown chakras as we recognize the divine law, and understand the divine law, and hold fast to the divine law.

     And we can well imagine that there are a group of very fundamental laws that we are asked to recognize, understand, and hold fast to, which taken together, allow the crown chakra to be raised, as a whole, into the region of illumination. Now, in this respect we are not talking about nuances. We are not talking about subtleties. We are not talking about fine points. The subject of nuances, subtleties, and fine points, come into play when we are trying to differentiate between the vibrations of the thousand petaled lotus, each petal of which represents a finely differentiated vibration (of Light). In the disciplines of the First Ray, we not talking about these nuances, subtleties, or fine points, we are talking about fundamental laws only.

     For example, what is the color of the sky on a bright sunny day? The color is blue. It is not black. It is not red. It is not green. It is not yellow. It is only one color. It is blue. Of course, some people will say, well, it is not so black and white as that. And El Morya responds, yes it is. On a bright sunny day, the sky is blue. And that is the only color that it is. Look inside of yourself and find everything and anything that might desire to rebel against this one simple fundamental fact, and cast it out. It is the enemy, the very insanity of some demon you have made into a friend in those days when you had to live in total darkness, and you were lonely, and you made friends with many creatures that crept in through the open doors. If the room had been lit, and you could see their faces, I assure you, you would never have let them be your friends. How many people love spiders? Not many.

     Not only must you learn anew to feel comfortable with the blue sky, to be at peace with this fundamental law of nature, you must work with the Master to resurrect your long lost love for that blue sky as well. This describes two very basic steps that cannot be bypassed, which are part of the process of raising the vibratory rate of the crown chakra.

     And therefore, let us consider what are those fundamental laws.

     First there is one overriding law that must be obeyed, for which no compromises will ever be accepted, if the soul is to remain on the Path of Initiation, and continue under the sponsorship of the Masters, receiving those initiations that carry the soul onward towards the goal of the Ascension.

1. When rightfully charged with a violation of any of the laws of God, the soul must quickly repent, and surrender its rebellion into the flame, and perform an appropriate penance for the purpose of, a) redeeming all misqualified energies, and b) providing restitution to all souls who have been harmed by the act of rebellion.

     This law should be seen as a framework for all others. It provides the general overall framework, because it describes the law that rules the soul's continued presence on the Path of Initiation. One can make mistakes in all other areas, but if the soul conforms to this one law, in the aftermath of whatever mistake it might make, it will keep its place on the path, and continue on the homeward journey.

     Notice that this most fundamental of laws, which provides a framework for everything else, which encompasses everything else, is structured out of the mercy and forgiveness of God our Father, which, in all reality encompasses the whole creation.

     If the soul does not conform itself to this law, each mistake made in other fundamental areas, will take the soul off the path immediately, and each subsequent mistake will carry the soul further away from that portal of opportunity.

     The admonishment, "Never let the sun go down on your wrath", is one example wherein this law has been stated repeatedly. If you injure another soul with an expression of anger or derision or whatever, at that point, you are in violation of the law, and your progress on the path stops. The law requires that you fix it right there and then. Or at the very minimum, sometime that day. If you don't fix it, you will allow it to be covered over by the blanket of self-justification, and the next day, you will more likely to be tempted to cover it over with another layer of self-justification, and so on. And perhaps you might even forget about it. And that would be deadly, in terms of your progress on the path. This is because, the soul's progress on the path stops at the point of the violation of the law. And the soul goes into a holding pattern around that point. Sure, life appears to go on, but the Masters and the Angels, to the extent that the law of mercy will allow them to continue to work with that soul, will direct all of their efforts to that one point, to bring that soul to a remembrance of its responsibility to deal with that one point. And so, violators of the law, will circle around the point of violation, until it gets fixed, however long it takes.

     What is it, that keeps people from addressing these points of violation? It is pride. It is selfishness. It is that human delusion that has the soul believing that there is something more important than fixing that point of violation. That is really a delusion. It such a stark delusion, when you understand that all progress back to the Great Central Sun has completely stopped for that soul at that point of violation. Such delusions correspond to that recalcitrant substance that keeps the feet of the soul fused to the deck of that sinking (cruise) ship of human selfishness that was described earlier.

     Here is a list of other laws which appear to me to lead the list of those laws which should be considered absolutely fundamental. They are fundamental because they represent very basic pieces of the divine plan that must be incorporated into the mind, if that mind is ever to shine with the light of divinity again. Moreover, they are fundamental, because the neglect of these laws, occupying the mind as a matrix of ignorance, puts the soul in a position of expressing large amounts of energy that are out of step with the divine plan, thereby incurring significant amounts of negative karma.

2. The soul must break all bonds
of allegiance to the false hierarchy.

3. The soul must break all ties to the astral plane.

4. The soul must use the throat chakra
to advance the purposes of God only.

5. The soul must never misuse
the power of music.

6. The soul must not misuse the power
of the base of the spine chakra.

7. The soul must oppose abortion.

8. The soul must oppose homosexuality.

9. The soul must oppose the use
of mind or mood altering drugs.

10. The soul must challenge every lie.

11. The soul must speak the truth
at every opportunity.

12. The soul must adhere to the Golden Rule
in all relationships with other people.

     At this writing, I cannot think of any other laws that would be considered more fundamental than these. Perhaps someone can offer other ideas. For now, these seem to me, to be absolutely the most basic disciplines associated with the First Ray. One must recognize these laws, understand them, accept them, and live them, if the crown chakra is to be protected from encroachments by the deepest shadows which are capable of turning all light to darkness.

     Therefore, if there is a willful neglect, or outright rejection of any one of these fundamental laws, then the crown chakra will remain steeped in darkness. Again, the willful rejection of any ONE of these fundamental laws, will keep the entire crown chakra steeped in darkness. It is not like 1/12 of the crown chakra will be steeped in darkness, and the rest of it will be blazing golden light. No. The willful rejection of any one of these laws guarantees that the whole of the crown chakra will be steeped in darkness. The reason for this is quite simple to understand. The violation of any of these laws creates a focal point of darkness within the mind of the individual that draws energy of like vibration in from the astral plane. The flow of darkness from the astral plane into the mind is so great, that if there was any light in the mind before that point, it will be completely engulfed by the inflowing darkness.

     One might conceive of a once pristine blue pool. The pool has a complex plumbing and filtering system that was designed to keep the pool crystal clear. But along the way, the pool owner was persuaded to hook this system into a local ink factory. I know this sounds insane, but that is what the Masters and Angels are thinking as they look at the people on this planet. This is exactly what they have done. And not only have they created one plumbing link to the ink factory, they have created several. The blacker the water the better. From the divine perspective, rebellion is insanity. And these rebellious plumbing links have to be severed. All of them. If you keep just one, the whole pool will still be pitch black.

     And when the entire crown chakra is steeped in darkness, there is no way for the soul to access the higher mental body, which is alternatively known as the Holy Christ Self. If there is no access to the higher mental body, there is no way for the Masters or the angels to impress their ideas upon these minds. No way for divine guidance to enter in.

     Now, in regards to Rev. Linda Worobec specifically, in her performance of a Beatles tune on the Altar of the Holy Grail, on July 4, 2003, in King Arthur's Court, she evidenced a willful neglect, and an outright rejection of not one, but several of these laws.

     Specifically, her behavior, in the planning of that performance, and the execution of that performance, directly broke laws No. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, and 11.

     Now, if she would have quickly repented, bending to the requirements of Law No. 1, and done the penance outlined therein, she would have been long forgiven, and the whole thing would have been long forgotten, though it might even be that people would have had a higher respect for her today, if she had showed some humility, and simply confessed her sins, and moved on. But that was not to be.

     She proudly defended her actions then, and continues to do so to this day. And this puts her in direct violation of Law No. 1. And that means, she has forfeited her position on the path. She is no longer receiving any initiations from the Masters. They have cut her off. And they have done this, because this is what the Law requires. Because she indulges willful ignorance and outright rejection on these fundamental points, any light they give her will be turned instantly to darkness. Consider the blue pool. It is pitch black. If the Masters were to make it clear, she would refuse to hold the line of the law that would keep the water clear. And so, they will not make it clear. And they will not pour any more water into it. So, they cannot give her any more light. The light that she has, she gets from the idolatrous association with other lightbearers. The Masters cannot give her another drop.

     And that brings up another interesting issue, when you consider the laws of evaporation. That pool is evaporating. Where is she going to get the water to keep the pool full? She steals water from other pools. That's exactly what is going on. Of course, people give her their water willingly we must admit, but if they only knew, they would withhold their water too.

     But, the pure water she gets from other people does not have the effect of making her pool more clear. Because of the shadows that she indulges, all the light she absorbs from other lightbearers is turned to darkness as well, which I am sure people will clearly experience as a greater and greater entrenchment of the ego in a false tower of spiritual authority. People will feel more intimidated around her as she makes more frequent references to her mantles and to her past association with the Messenger. She has no illumination upstairs that would allow her to stand firmly and confidently upon the foundation of the law she adores and trusts. That foundation does not exist. She has no adoration or trust for any law. The only point of stability in her life is her office, and the trappings of authority that go with it.

     As the members of this organization suffer her presence among us, you can see, that they are now in the position of themselves violating the law in very fundamental ways as well. They are in the current condition of entertaining a willful neglect, and outright rejection, directly, of laws No. 2, 3, 10, and 11. And what is the result of that? That allows a shadow to occupy their minds as well, which will turn all light to darkness. And this has taken many people in this organization off the path, for the reason just stated. They have failed a First Ray test, allowed a shadow to occupy their minds, a shadow of such intensity that turns all light to darkness, and in that condition, the Masters cannot extend additional light to them either.

     And I think you can see in this explanation, a more technically accurate exposition, as to why it is, that those who come to the defense of Rev. Linda Worobec, are themselves stepping into a deep shadow of willful ignorance. They are connecting the plumbing of their blue pools into the same ink factory plumbing that feeds Linda Worobec's pool. The path of initiation is imploding around this individual.

     What are the ramifications of this? What we see before us, is one of the greatest train wrecks in the history of the world, engineered by the false hierarchy to steal the treasures of opportunity that were loaded onto that train, just bulging out of the cargo doors. What a huge treasure is being robbed out of the hands of the little children of this community by Rev. Linda Worobec.

     This can be explained and understood.

     The seven chakras operate as a unified system of divine cognition. Base of the Spine, Solar Plexus, Seat of the Soul, Heart, Throat, Third-Eye, Crown, operate as ONE system. All of these chakras work together to report the truth to the soul. I will talk about that truth.

     But first, we need to look at some very simple facts.

     Much is said about the heart. Much is said about the centrality of the heart. But the heart can glow no more intensely than the Crown! Do you see? It is impossible to have a Brightly Shining Heart, and a completely Dark Crown. It is impossible. Where do you think the Love comes from that allows the soul to feel love for the law? It comes from the heart. Where do you think the light of illumination comes from, that will allow the crown to be a shining golden star? IT COMES FROM THE HEART. And so, the crown will be no brighter than the heart. And the heart no brighter than the crown. If one is steeped in darkness, the other is steeped in darkness. It is that simple.

     On the Path of Initiation, the light is raised in all chakras simultaneously, and in balance. And that means, that the soul's adherence to the law, provides the framework of stability, wherein the light can be increased in all chakras.

     If you have one candle power showing in the heart, you will have one candle power showing in all of the other six chakras. On the other hand, if you have total darkness in the heart, you will have total darkness in all of the other chakras, including the crown. The same principle applies no matter what chakra you begin with. If you can see that there is total darkness in any one, you will have total darkness in all the remaining.

     The reason for this is that the chakras are all interconnected. There is a plumbing system that connects the chakras, perhaps we should call it a light transmission system. If there is darkness in any one chakra, it will be spread in uniform proportion to all chakras.

     In this respect, the basic act, choice, decision, and determination to adhere to fundamental laws, is the act of holding the vibration of all chakras at a particular ETHERIC frequency, all of them synchronized at that frequency. Clearly, this is a wobbly structure at first, and many angelic hands are needed to help hold everything steady. Our decrees provide the authority for the Masters to extend this stabilizing assistance. But, when the student has not determined to hold fast to the fundamental laws, and in fact, harbors a streak of overt rebellion against them, there is nothing the Masters can do, no matter how many decrees the individual gives. They can only work with people who meet them half way. The student must choose to be obedient to these fundamental laws.

     Here, we have shown that there is total darkness in the crown chakra of Rev. Linda Worobec. That means that there is total darkness in all six of the other chakras. This person is not a lightbearer, at least not now. This could change with obedience to the law, repentance, penance, etc. But it cannot change without that obedience. As it stands now she serves as a receiving electrode for impulses from the False Hierarchy. This explains how she could have consciously planned to perform a Beatles tune before an audience of Ascended Master Students. She CONSCIOUSLY planned that! This means that she consciously planned to betray the Teaching. This explains how she could have initiated the total destruction of an Ascended Master publishing operation in Russia. Only a very strong impetus from dark forces beyond can explain these transgressions.

     Now, there are many people who believe that she was not at the center of this, but their denial has no basis in fact. In her position as Church Manager, it is her responsibility to interface directly with the study groups and teaching centers. All the decisions made in Russia, where made by her, and the rest of the people just followed her lead. This reflects a standard hierarchical management structure designed to free the top executive from the distracting entanglements with the lower levels of organizational operation. The documentation released at the time supports this view.

     Now, as noted above, because this darkness is not being challenged, it is spreading throughout the organization, and the chakras of all students, are going dark because of it. This is a very easy conclusion to reach. If there was light in the chakras, that light will illuminate the requirements of the law, which is to challenge darkness, and not compromise with it. If there is light in the chakras, that incentive to challenge would be continuous. The Light does not give up. This is a very important truth. The light does not give up. The light will never agree to being silenced. When the people accept the situation, and allow these transgressions to be swept under the rug, that is the sign that the light has gone out. When all effort to challenge transgressions have stopped, that is the sign that the light has been covered over by a new shadow that masquerades as righteousness, persuading the soul that no harm was done, and that nothing should be said to disturb Rev. Linda Worobec anymore, and that we can all move on. That is a new level of darkness in the chakras of all students. If all students are silent and complacent, all students share that new level of darkness. That new level of darkness appeared in the aftermath of Rev. Linda Worobec's acts of destruction. She is the author of it.

     There is only one way to return to the level of light that was there before these events, and that is for the students to give expression to the Light within them, that would require full accountability and resolution in this situation.

     Now, what does the darkness of the chakras portend for the soul? Well, that can only be understood if we have an idea of what the function is, of the light that is supposed to be in the chakras. What is the function of that light?

     Again, we must reiterate this, that the chakras represent a seven-fold system of divine cognition. What this means is that what the soul perceives of divine reality, is a product of each of the seven chakras. In other words, each chakra contributes to every divine insight that soul ever has. If the Masters show you something, something magnificent, all seven chakras are involved in transmitting that information to the soul. Divine Revelations are never a product of just one chakra. All seven chakras contribute to every Divine Revelation that the soul receives.

     If the charkas are dark, the Masters cannot reveal anything to soul.

     Now it is true, that there is no limit to the capacity of the Master to set aside any condition of darkness, and to raise the soul above it, and to reveal anything to the soul that the Master desires. The Master is not limited by the soul's own condition of darkness. But, this caveat is only applicable to those who are genuinely ignorant of the law, and who genuinely desire to do better.

     This does not apply to the soul who is willfully ignorant and rebellious. That level of darkness cannot be penetrated by the Master, according to the principles we stated earlier. Light will not be added unto a soul who is certain to turn it to darkness immediately.

     And this describes the situation for nearly everyone from Rev. Linda Worobec on down. They are all now in this willful state of ignorance. They have freely chosen to allow this shroud of darkness to overcome them, and the Masters cannot penetrate through this shroud, composed as it is, of freewill.

     Their only hope now, is to listen to reason, reason that will come to them through their two physical ears. The flame of the heart will leap to meet this truth, and they will then have a choice to identify with that burst of inner light, or to weave yet another layer of willful ignorance over the inner flame. You can see before us, in this respect, the process by which the threefold flame is actually snuffed out. The soul is tempted to adopt a posture of allegiance to a rebel, and every time the truth is spoken about the folly of that allegiance, the flame in the heart will leap to validate that truth, and the soul will have a choice to follow the rebel, or go with the light of the heart. Each time the soul chooses to ignore the light, the flame decreases, until it is no more.

     And so, I want to try to give you an idea of the great treasures that are being robbed from the members of this organization by their ill-conceived allegiance to this rebellious soul, Rev. Linda Worobec, wherein through their complicity in her transgressions, by silence, or by overt expressions of support, their chakras have gone dark, and they know it not.

     Again I would say, that your seven chakras operate as a seven-fold system of divine cognition. Again, all that is of Divine Reality registers upon your outer awareness, only by the operation of these chakras. The First Ray Laws must be obeyed, continuously, as a way of life, so that the chakras can be raised to a very basic level of the etheric, and held there, whereby your life can then be filled with DIVINE REVELATIONS.

     God our Father intends life to be lived as one continuous series of awesome divine revelation. That is what the chakras are designed to provide. Beginning from the point of darkness, there are certain fundamental points of divine knowledge that the soul is intended to receive as contextual statements.

     The soul can come to know God directly, through the operation of these chakras. The soul can come to know God as Father, and God as Mother, through the proper and balanced operation of these chakras. The soul can come to know the Divine Family of which it is a part, through the operation of these chakras, seven in balance, uniformly illuminated.

     What IS the I Am Presence? The soul can only come to know this through the balanced operation of these chakras. Of course we know that "I Am" is the name of God universal. But this God is our Father, and our Mother, our Divine Parents. How is the soul to interface, in the greatest love relationship it will ever know with a BEING that encompasses the entire creation? It is through the balanced operation of these seven chakras. These seven chakras work together to translate the reality of infinity to the soul, making that infinity, the most natural thing in the world. But not just natural, but personal. Because these are our Divine Parents, we are intended to know them, and we are intended to know them personally, one on one. And not in some great throne room, but in their very arms, eye to eye. And we will know them, through the system of divine cognition that the seven chakras represent. That is what they are for. How do you deal with the up close and personal presence of God your Father, and Your Mother, (that is what the I Am Presence is) who are, at the same time, the very same God that operates the entire universe, even as they cuddle you, as the little child in their arms? How do you do that? You do that through the seven fold system of divine cognition that the chakras represent. That is what they are for.

     The example and behavior of Rev. Linda Worobec robs you of ever developing the level of light in your chakras that will allow you to have these experiences. That is a fact. By demanding your allegiance, and your complicity in her transgressions, she is robbing you of the opportunity to rise into this divine knowledge. This is your birthright. And she is robbing you of that birthright.

     But there is more. I am telling you, that there is more.

     There is a magnificent mechanism that God our Father, and our Mother have created, that is designed to make this process of relating to them, a glorious adventure of the most precious love and cherishment and adoration that you can ever imagine. It is called the DIVINE FAMILY. Only your seven chakras, operating as that unified system of divine cognition, all in balance, and uniformly illuminated, can report to you the reality of the Divine Family. With dark chakras you will never know the Divine Family. As your eyes first open, YOU are the Divine Child. How do you open your eyes, and how do you come to see yourself as that Divine Child? It is through the operation of the unified system of divine cognition that the chakras are meant to be. With dark chakras you will never come to know the truth in this respect, that you are that Divine Child, even now.

     And what is the most precious thing that the Divine Child sees when he first opens his eyes? It is the Glory of God, and that God is seen as the Father of YOU, and that God is seen as the Mother of YOU. And while they are One, you know that they are two, that you have two Divine Parents, One Father, and One Mother. How do you see these things? How do you know these things? It is through the operation of the seven chakras as that unified system of Divine Cognition.

     These chakras translate the reality of infinity into a nice neat little package of pure delight that does not strike the child as anything unusual at all. Of course, the little being is overflowing with wonder and happiness and amazement, but all of these things are perfectly natural part of the divine life.

     And what is the second most precious thing the little child sees? It sees its heavenly brothers and sisters! It is true that they are not seen at first as persons with the sharp visual outlines that we are accustomed to in the physical octave. They are seen rather as tangible quantities of great love. The quality of their kind regard, and even adoring love, are impressed powerfully upon the consciousness of the child, and the child squirms under the precious delight of this new found paradise composed primarily by these golden rivers of esteem which flow from elder hearts to the heart of the new born child. And as the consciousness swoons in this ecstasy of belonging, huge waves of gratitude flow out of the child in the direction of God the Father, and the Mother, for They are known here, as the author of this most important aspect of paradise. They are the authors of this vast system of golden relationships that exist between all the heavenly brothers and sisters throughout all divine civilizations. They are the authors of this vast system of golden rivers (brotherly and sisterly esteem) which flow through the nexus of the golden heart of the Divine Child. In this way, the Glory of God comes so close, and the consciousness is thereby gradually acclimatized to live in this paradise of constant awe and wonder, the stabilizing presence of elder brothers and sisters always close by. How does the little child know and see all of these things? It is through the system of Divine Cognition represented by the seven chakras, raised up, uniformly illuminated.

     And one of the most important things that we learn is that God our Father, and our Mother, have sent our own heavenly brothers and sisters to show us the way home. That's right, our own Ascended Masters are revealed to be our own heavenly brothers and sisters whom God our Father, and our Mother have sent to lead their little brothers and sisters home. How do we know this to be so? This knowledge comes to us through that seven fold system of divine cognition which the chakras are meant to be. They are intended to reveal REALITY to the Divine Child. And if they remain dark, the soul will not know anything that is actually Real.

     All that the Masters teach, all that they ask us to study, to assimilate, to do, and to obey, is towards this end, of restoring the integrity of this unified system of Divine Cognition, that will allow us to one day enter into the glory of this divine knowledge. We are all intended to return there, and we are all intended to return there well before our ascension, and well before the end of this particular life.

     These are the great treasures of Divine Knowledge that Linda Worobec through her rebellious and destructive behavior, is robbing from the members of this organization. She lures people into this deep shadow of rebellion, through complicity as noted, via silence or direct support, and their chakras go dark, and the possibility for them to reach these levels of divine glory, are at an end, until and unless they reverse course.

     What a sad tragedy is outpictured before us in this widespread loss of opportunity, and what a sad and audacious poke in the eye of the Cosmic Christ yet again, that they would lure people into their proximity, puffing up the illusion of their righteousness the more, by putting on a conference that purports to champion the Maxin Light, which they have caused to go out in their own chakras.

     I have mentioned the Paradise of Belonging, to which the Divine Child is heir. There is nothing on earth that the soul has ever experienced that will prepare it for the direct contact with the rivers of high esteem that flow out of the hearts of their heavenly brothers and sisters towards them. How this is possible we can only wonder, but the Divine Child is at the center of attention of all of his heavenly brothers and sisters. This describes our HOME. I have seen it. And I bear witness to it, and I am telling you that the behavior of Rev. Linda Worobec is robbing every (complicit) member of this organization from ever arriving there.

     Obedience to the Law, one can never overstate the importance of this.

     To raise the Light of the Chakras, the Law must be obeyed. If not, the chakras will remain dark, this system of divine cognition will remain dysfunctional, and this great birthright that God our Father, and our Mother hold out to each one of their children entrapped in these regions of Maya, will never be known by them.

     I am telling you the truth. I wish to God, that you would listen to me.

     Rev. Linda Worobec transgressions must be understood. She must be officially rebuked. She must be dismissed. All who were a party to her transgressions must tender their resignations. The clock must be rolled back to August 29, 2003, and the situation in Russia restored. True chelas are they who she threw away. This is the only possible path back into the light.

     One of the ways you can get involved right away, is to participate in our opinion poll.

     This poll, our May/June Poll, has more questions than our last one, twelve (12) in all, and therefore deserves a polling page all to itself. But before you go there and cast your vote, for life, or for death, let me explain to you how our contest will work this time around, and of course what the prize is.

     This time, the contest is part of the poll itself. Yes, they are ONE. I think its Question No. 9, yes, that's right, which asks, "Would you like to participate in our contest?" If you check the "Yes" button, then when you submit your answers to all of the questions, your contest entry will be submitted at the same time.

     Now, the contest will be pretty much along the same lines as our last one, which was so gloriously fruitful, in terms of the dazzling sparkles of serendipity that burst forth from it in all directions (see the contest results for the first contest, the remarks of the contest winner, and the challenge presented to her, and of course the summary of it all in the article above). And so, again, the prize will go to the person who can predict the number of people who think it is important enough to participate in this life and death poll. The person who comes closest to predicting the right number, will win! What will they win? They will win a two-cassette audio tape album of the landmark lecture given by the Messenger on October 7, 1977, on the Summit University Campus in Pasadena, California, published under the title, The Science of Rhythm for the Mastery of the Sacred Energies of Life - Uses and Misuses of the Word in the Music of East and West - A Lecture by Elizabeth Clare Prophet.

     Of course, we have presented some quotations and audio excerpts from this album in the main article on the Journal Front Page for May 2004, so if you have read that, you will have a taste already, of what wonders to behold await you when you get to listen to the whole thing! Allow me please, to present the front and back covers of the album here. What is written on the back cover is very interesting.

     And so, without further adieu, knowing now what a great prize awaits the most prescient member of our community, I would invite you to please participate in this important poll, and at the same time, enter our new contest!
