     Responding to the Whited Sepulchre article that appears on the December Front Page for December 2007, a reader, in rejecting my thesis, and reacting specifically against my focus on the Master El Morya, exclaimed the following:

"I do not idolize any ascended master. Thou shalt not have any other Gods before our own mighty I am pressence."

     Because this statement gave me the impression that there was a segment of information missing in the foundation of this person's understanding in regards to what the path is all about, I was compelled to try to fill in the missing pieces. This is what I said to her, and I share it here for the benefit of any other person who has the cornerstone missing from their own foundation.

     When large numbers of souls fell into the Maya of Human Delusion (in the Great Rebellion and its aftermath), God our Father had to design a system whereby these souls could be brought back into the Light of Reality. We could look at this "system" as a Golden Bridge which God our Father built, for these souls to pass over, from the land of delusion, to the land of heavenly truth and paradise.

     This Golden Bridge is the Path of Initiation, which applies to all people, universally. If any soul is to find its way back to God, and their divine estate, they must all cross the Golden Bridge provided by God the One Father. Now, one might be tempted to see the Ritual of the Ascension, that we are so familiar with, as the totality of the bridge. But no, the Golden Bridge represents all of the preparations which the soul must go through, from first to last, before it can enter into that final boost phase (the ascension) back into the domain of divine reality.

     Now, when Sanat Kumara came to this planet, with the 144,000, he, and they, (or us, if you identify with that mission), came to anchor knowledge of this Golden Bridge in the Earth. And he sent forth his followers to build that Bridge for all the evolutions of the earth. He sent forth his followers to lead them to it. He sent forth his followers to teach them how to cross it.

     This Bridge was designed to reunite these fallen souls, these laggard evolutions, with the I Am Presence.

     BUT, because there was total darkness on one side of the bridge, where the fallen souls resided, and total light on the other side of the bridge, where the I Am Presence resides, in the midst of the bridge stands the MEDIATOR to make sure that those who cross the bridge do not become immersed in the all-power of God too quickly, as this would destroy them. The goal is for them to make this crossing from total darkness, into total light, in a stable and controlled manner, so that the thread of the soul's identity stays intact during the cross over process. Jesus expressed the principle of the mediator in this respect when he said, "no man cometh unto the Father except by me."

     What this means, is that the BRIDGE is actually the HEART of the Master. But not just one Master. Many Masters are given mediating responsibilities. This is because the soul must make the crossing in several dimensions. Different Masters perform different mediating roles at various stages in the cross-over process. This is one way to understand the role of each of the Chohans of the Rays for example. One might divide the bridge into seven segments, and each of the Chohans will assist the soul in crossing the segment of the bridge for which he, or she, is responsible. We can expand on that point to good effect I think.

     For example, the soul will take the hand of the Master El Morya as the Chohan of the First Ray, to cross the first segment of the bridge into divine knowledge, divine being. The soul would then take the hand of the Master Lord Lanto, as the Chohan of the Second Ray, to cross the second segment of the bridge into divine knowledge, divine being. The soul would then take the hand of the Master Paul the Venetian, as the Chohan of the Third Ray, to cross the third segment of the bridge into divine knowledge, divine being. The soul would then take the hand of the Master Serapis Bey as the Chohan of the Fourth Ray, to cross the fourth segment of the bridge into divine knowledge, divine being. The soul would then take the hand of the Master Hilarion as the Chohan of the Fifth Ray, to cross the fifth segment of the bridge into divine knowledge, divine being. The soul would then take the hand of the Lady Master Nada as the Chohan of the Sixth Ray, to cross the sixth segment of the bridge into divine knowledge, divine being. The soul would then take the hand of the Master St. Germain as the Chohan of the Seventh Ray, to cross the seventh segment of the bridge into divine knowledge, divine being.

     When the soul has anchored and assimilated all of these seven aspects of the one light, the soul is ready to face the pure white light of the personal God Presence, in a balanced, stable, and constructive manner. This is why the rainbows of nature look like an arched bridge. This is where the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow story comes from. Mastery of each of the seven rays, equals mastery of the one white light, wherein the God Presence resides.

     So, when you say, "Thou shalt not have any other Gods before our own mighty I am pressence." While this is true, we must also recognize the fact that we can never come face to face with our own I Am Presence, until we have passed over (and through) the bridge of each of these Ascended Master Hearts, each heart giving knowledge, each heart testing the soul on that knowledge, and not allowing the soul to pass over that section of the bridge, until the soul has proven its mastery, achieved a passing grade, as to that particular aspect of knowledge.

     Some might think this is way too complicated. But we must understand this from the perspective of the fallen soul, especially those souls whom Sanat Kumara came here to save. These souls have no memory of the divine at all. They have no idea of how life is to be lived in the state of divine freedom. All of this knowledge must be resurrected in them a step at a time, and under conditions where the Master is close at hand, offering the stability of his own mastery all along the way. The Master must always be there to regulate the soul's access to the domain of light, so the soul gets exactly what it needs when it needs it, and never too much. Just exactly what it needs. And never too much. This is the service that the mediating master provides to every soul.

     Let's say that you, Doris, have a sense that you came with Sanat Kumara, and that you are not a fallen soul as such, and that you don't see why you need this mediating service. But, for every soul in physical embodiment, there is only one way to contact the divine, and that is through the mediatorship of the Master. Every servant of Sanat Kumara who came into embodiment, came on their missions knowing that they would be cut off from the direct knowledge of the divine for a time, and that their return path would be the same path set before all laggard evolutions. Indeed, it was their mission to prove this path to the laggard evolutions. Every servant who came with Sanat Kumara knows in their heart, that they must pass through this process so they can explain to others how it works. Once in embodiment, there is no way back into the heavenly realm, save by the path ordained by God. Even if you are a soul of the highest attainment, i.e on the inner, but have become so disheartened that you want to call it quits, this would still be true for you. This is because the physical domain is hermetically sealed from the higher etheric regions, for two primary reasons. First, to make sure that none of the human pollution that is so prevalent here, can flow upwards into that domain, and cause pollution problems there. Second, to ensure that the resources of the light are not made available to the fallen soul at will, like allowing a child to reach into a cookie jar whenever he might want to, because of the propensity of the soul to misuse power. The Master makes sure that the soul receives only the resources of light which it has proven it can hold and use in a constructive manner, and which the soul will not allow to be stolen, i.e. take away from them by the forces of darkness. And so, it is given unto the Master Only, to know how to open this hermetic seal, and to decide when to allow Light to flow down into the chalice of the soul in physical embodiment.

     And so, while this is true, "Thou shalt not have any other Gods before our own mighty I am pressence." It is also true, that the soul cannot have any contact with the I Am Presence unless that contact, that communication channel, is opened for you, by the Mediating Master. Yes, to sit under our own vine and fig tree is the goal. But that goal can only be achieved through the mediatorship of the Master. This is not a problem, as the Master, is always the Master of being the Crystal Lens, which circumstances require. When you look at a distant mountain range through a pair of binoculars, does the lens get in the way? No, the lens transmits the image of the mountain to your soul in a very crystal clear manner, where you don't even know the lens is there, other than by the fact that you know you have invoked that lens, by invoking the mediatorship of the Master, by the giving of his or her (sponsored) decrees.

     The Master never gets into the way of the truth being transmitted through the lens of his heart. Moreover, the structure within which the lens is mounted, that is to say, the Ascended Master personality, is also kept well hidden at first, that is, as a general rule. But, as the student puts sincere effort into the process of assimilating what has been revealed in the lens, the personality of the Master holding the lense comes into view more and more, but still, just like the image above, it never gets in the way of what the Master is showing you. It is his goal for you to fall in love with what is shown in the lens, that is the Reality of God Himself, and this happens without effort, as this is the natural reaction of the divine soul when it is shown anything about God directly. The force of beauty that hits the soul is always like a rose scented freight train. If you don't mind my very crude metaphor. The point is, that the impact is always powerful, in the deepest, and most soul stirring manner possible. Soon enough, your gratitude for what you are being shown, will develop into a great love for the Master as well.

     Therefore, to worship the I Am Presence, also means to highly respect the path of reunion which the I Am Presence (God the Father) himself has established. And that means to highly respect the role which the I Am Presence itself has assigned to these Ascended Masters (our higher brothers and sisters) as they work to implement this universal homeward path.

     Now, as noted above, various ascended masters will play various mediating roles. But there is one Master who is key for the beginner on the path, and that Master is El Morya, the Chohan of the First Ray. He stands at the entrance of the Golden Bridge, and the soul must pass through his heart, the camel must go through that eye of THAT needle, as the first section of the Golden Bridge, before it can move further onto the bridge. The Master El Morya will allow the soul to pass, only when he is sure that the soul is properly prepared to face the ever increasing light of divine reality that lies beyond him, and to shoulder the responsibilities that are inherent in that Light. Morya is there at the first section of the bridge to train us in the basics of divine perception, the basics of divine knowledge. True, in a manner of speaking, he can call in other Masters in to give special instruction during his classes, Jesus can speak through his heart to you, Mother Mary, and Kuthumi, and so forth, but they will always be speaking and expounding in depth to a First Ray principle that is part of the curriculum. As you will see, they do not show up in his classroom a lot. But only occasionally. And there are other Masters who will serve as his Teaching Assistants, yes just like we had in Summit University, who are being trained by the Master to become professors themselves. The Master Nicolas Roerich is often about Morya's classroom, along with the Master Lanello, and sometimes the Master Godfre. But through it all Morya is the presiding professor, as it were, for every new student on the path.

     In as much as all students must pass their First Ray initiations under the Master El Morya, before they can move on, it would be accurate to see the whole teaching, by all of the Masters, as serving this first goal. In this respect, all other Masters become like tutors, whose services you can invoke through the giving of their decrees, or by making invocations directly to them, who will come to you, and work with you, to help you understand your First Ray lessons, and to assist you in passing your First Ray tests. El Morya is the master professor of the First Ray school room. But like all institutions of higher learning, those students who are having trouble with their lessons, they can employ the services of tutors as noted, and all masters are happy to answer these calls for assistance. But it is important to understand, that they all know the First Ray curriculum, they have all passed through that curriculum, and when they come to help you, it is not to make you THEIR CHELA, but to help you become the CHELA of the First Ray Master, as this is the sign that you have passed your tests, and the only way you could ever begin to be considered as a candidate to become a Chela of another Master.

     And moreoever, there is only one sign that you should look to as your own personal Reality Check, to indicate whether or not you have passed the tests of the First Ray Master. That will be when your own witness unto him, mirrors in experience the witness of the Messenger, Elizabeth Clare Prophet who said, "Everything I know about God I know to be true because of him. Morya. The mere mention of his name brings tears to my eyes. Because his love for me is so great that to touch it with some portion of my being is almost unbearable. For such a love can only exist in heaven. To sustain such a love on earth, one must immediately translate it into action." If you can't say this, this does not mean you are bad or faithless chela (unless you've been on the path for 20 or 30 years). It only means that you have not passed all of your tests under the First Ray Master. That point could be just around the corner for some. But for anyone that cannot say this, this they will know for sure. That they are still at the foot of the Golden Bridge, and that you have not mastered his curriculum as yet.

     This learning structure under the great umbrella of the Great White Brotherhood is just as highly organized, as any one associated with the institutions of higher learning on earth. The head of the university, gives the job of Teacher, on a particular course of study to a particular professor, because that professor is qualified. While you may see, in a manner of speaking, all the professors on campus from time to time, Students cannot proceed into higher courses of study, until they have passed their tests under the assigned professor. No rebellion against any professor is tolerated. If a student refuses to take a particular course that is required for graduation, then the student will not graduate.

     To put this in perspective, I believe that a true disciple, or student, of the Master Jesus Christ, holding the office of WORLD TEACHER as he does, which makes him the top professor of all the educational systems of the Brotherhood on the planet, will only be prepared for that course of study, as it were, or qualified to enter into his classes, only if that student has passed his tests under the Seven Chohans. Morya being the first, with six more to go after that.

     But to the new student, even if the entire universe of higher education professors appears to be large, like unto the stars in the sky, at the beginning, the Master who must reside at the center of their universe of learning, must be the Master El Morya, just as the professor of freshman students in our colleges and universities have at the center of their universe, those who conduct the introductory courses through which they must pass successfully, before they can sit at the feet of the instructors of the higher level courses. All of their attention must be focused on His curriculum, and on passing his tests. All forward progress depends on this. This is a perfect illustration of this truism, as above, so below.

     And when we contemplate the goal of the Master El Morya to bring millions of souls into this activity, know that this means that it is into his classroom that these millions must come, and that all the Ascended Masters on the planet are working towards this goal. They are all in perfect harmony, and in a state of perfect organizational activity in this regard.

     Again, allow me to repeat myself, on this important point, that the importance of El Morya's role was indicated by Mother herself, the Chela of Morya, the Messenger trained by Morya, as I quoted her from the Introduction which she wrote for the book "Morya". Again, she said, "Everything I know about God I know to be true because of him. Morya. The mere mention of his name brings tears to my eyes. Because his love for me is so great that to touch it with some portion of my being is almost unbearable. For such a love can only exist in heaven. To sustain such a love on earth, one must immediately translate it into action."

     You can see from her testimony, that it is Morya's goal to prepare the soul to stand in the midst of the Love of God Himself, to prepare the soul to receive the intensity of a love that is infinite, to prepare the soul to reenter the domain of truth, where the soul can receive that love, process it, and understand it. And thus, the first truly spiritual flame we approach on the path, is the Love of the Master El Morya, true, at first in the form of his disciplines, but beyond that, the reality of his friendship and his love, as we become the friends and the allies of the truths for which he stands, for the truths that we must make a part of ourselves, just like the bone structures of newly forming wings. And through his love, and the eyes that are associated with his love, he also shows us why he loves God so much, and thus, prepares us to recapture the flame of our own native love for God our Father.

     Yes, Morya desires to show us why he Loves God our Father so much. This is part of our preliminary training. And this is the root of the Messenger's witness. Again, Mother said, "Everything I know about God I know to be true because of him." This is her witness to the mediating role of the Chohan of the First Ray. It her witness to this important truth, that the fallen soul, can only see divine truth, through the lens of the Master's heart. This is the way God our Father designed to be. Even on our ascent unto the summit, that we would learn to love appreciate honor, and respect our Guide. The Guide, the Ascended Master mediator, is one of God's Greatest gifts to us. Without them, every fallen soul would be lost. There would be no way home for any of them.

     The first stage of the Path then, the Path that will take us over the whole Golden Bridge, is the process whereby we are called to assimilate the Teaching of the First Ray Master, whereby we must be voluntarily stripped of all of our rebellion against the principles that He would have us master. And thus, obedience to the fundamental points of his teaching, is essential if we are to pass over his section of the Golden Bridge. Tell me this. Is it possible to expect to get a passing grade in any college course if the student refuses to adhere to what the professor considers essential? No. In like manner, then, it must be understood, that the Chohan of the First Ray, cannot be bypassed. His requirements, his curriculum, his tests, they cannot be bypassed. One cannot dodge around him to the left, or to the right, above, or below, for truly the path ahead, is actually through his very heart, the camel must go through the eye of THAT NEEDLE, and Morya alone controls who will pass through. God our Father has given him that responsibility. Loving obedience to his curriculum, then, and a mastery that comes from a strong momentum in this regard, is required to pass over the first section of the Golden Bridge for which Morya has responsibility.

     Now, let's take a look at one of the fundamental teachings of the Chohan of the First Ray. This goes to getting your foot onto that section of the Golden Bridge for which Morya is responsible. The Master El Morya said that he would not tolerate psychic activity in this organization. By saying this, he is laying it right on the table in a manner that is clear as crystal. The student cannot even get a foot into his classroom if that student does not obey that teaching. (In as much as this organization is supposed to be his classroom.) That means that any student who indulges a desire to dabble in the psychic, will not be able to take a seat in his classes. And therefore, the student will not be able to present himself, or herself, at exam time to take the test. It goes without saying, it is so much common sense, that this Master cannot give a test to someone who he will not even allow into his own classroom.

     This would be the same as saying that he will not tolerate drug use in his classroom. Anyone that will not obey that rule, will not have a seat in his classroom, and that person will not be given any of the tests associated with that curriculum. The question as to whether such a person has passed his tests or not, it is a moot point. The Master will not give tests to anyone who is not fulfilled the most basic requirements for entering his classroom. As they have not taken any of his lessons, they would not be able to pass any test given.

     Compare and contrast all of this, to the behavior exhibited by Rev. Marilyn Barrick. Knowing this rule that the Master El Morya has set before his prospective students in regards to this ban on psychic activity, she rebelled against it in one of the most public manners possible. She gave a boost of authority, a boost of authenticity, to the psychic channelers of the entity Kryon in the first chapter of one of her books, building the entire book, in fact, on the authority of their channelings regarding the so- called "Indigo" children. When the problem was pointed out to her, she refused to correct it. In effect, she said that this fundamental Teaching of the Master El Morya did not matter a wit to her.

     This proves that Marilyn Barrick did not get past the Master El Morya, and onto that Golden Bridge. The very fact that an individual would give such short shrift to such a fundamental teaching of the First Ray Master, proves this point, that she was never allowed inside of his classroom. She never studied under him. And she never took any of his tests, nor passed any of his tests. Actually her whole life is an example of the lengths a rebellious soul will go through, to try to get around the First Ray Master, developing her own criteria of goodness, that was good enough for the people around her, good enough to inspire them to applaud her, therefore, it must be good enough for the heavenly hierarchy to recognize. But, however "good" she might have appeared to the people around her, and for whatever reason she appeared good, this cannot in any way compensate for this fact, that she did not get one foot onto that Golden Bridge, and thus, it would be impossible for her to have made her ascension in the light, as the ascension only comes to those who have received a passing grade from ALL of the seven chohans, the soul having passed over the whole bridge, through each of the mediating hearts, the identity having been reformed into the divine image, one that can integrate itself in a harmonious way into the larger divine whole.

     Marilyn Barrick was a rebel in disguise. Very well disguised. What she taught, was the Path of Accommodation of the Dweller on the Threshold, which was described by the Master Kuthumi as follows:

The Teaching of the Master Kuthumi on
the Path of Dweller Accommodation

     "I come with the message of Maitreya and to amplify his previous messages. For he has spoken of the path of accommodation whereby, instead of slaying the dweller, you find ways to go around this side and around that side. And thus, you begin to build the tower of light you build a great momentum of decrees and service, trusting that somehow, in some way, this terrifying encounter will go away. But it will not go away. And the day you discover once again that all of that goodness is not the acceptable offering is the day when in the presence of Maitreya you once again encounter face-to- face that dweller on the threshold."

     "You may go far and wide and keep a wide berth from the messenger and never notice the dweller and build a positive human momentum in those outer attainments, whether through yoga or decrees or this or that discipline. And you may be very happy with yourself, and others may be exceedingly happy with you. Of course, this is not the question."      "The question is whether your I AM Presence and Christ Self are happy and whether your Teachers will tell you that in the light of cosmic initiation your offering is acceptable. Thus, beloved, to avoid the Masters or to avoid the instrument whereby we may speak to you is to avoid the Day of Reckoning [of your karmic accountability] which has been called, in biblical terms, the day of vengeance of our God."

     Moreover, the Masters have taught at length about the "Wedding Garment" and that without one, one cannot enter into the ascension. Marilyn Barrick's teaching is geared to helping people manufacture a synthetic wedding garment, one that appears all-white in human terms of goodness, one that they hope and believe will be found suitable, but which will not be found suitable, as noted by the Master above, because within the garment still lurks the dweller of rebellion. This is the message of the Master Kuthumi above. The synthetic wedding garment is only a means by which the dweller hides from the consciousness of the soul itself.

     Finally, on the subject of Idolatry specifically let me close with this. Expressing an appropriate level of gratitude and honor to an Ascended Master who clearly deserves it, is not idolatry. Expressing, through one's actions, the truth about the pre-eminent role of this Master El Morya, is not idolatry. Leaving a record of your gratitude for this Master, is not idolatry. Leaving a record of one's gratitude, as the Messenger herself has done, as I quoted her from the introduction to "Morya", is not idolatry. Leaving a record of one's gratitude, as the Messenger herself has done, by giving the name of King Arthur to the church's main sanctuary, is not idolatry. All of these records anchor an essential teaching in the earth, that the role of the First Ray Chohan is central to our paths, that his teaching is central to our victory. In her words, and in her deeds, she is expressing a genuine state of gratitude that embodies this important teaching. Those who lead this church had an opportunity to express their gratitude, and their understanding of the importance of the role of the Master El Morya. They had an opportunity to give us the evidence that they had assimilated the Messenger's example in this regard. They had an opportunity to put the building of a new chapel, a new King Arthur's Court in first place, in their order of priorities. But they did not. They put their perceived needs first. This is, in fact, an example of idolatry. Putting the perceived needs of the not-self before the needs of God, that is the classic definition of idolatry. And by doing this, they proved themselves to be, one and all, false pastors, who are supposed to be able to show you how to cross the Golden Bridge, but they cannot, because they have not put one of their feet onto that Golden Bridge themselves. If they knew anything about passing their tests under the First Ray Chohan, they would be able to say with the Messenger, "Everything I know about God I know to be true because of him". But none of them could say this. None of them had the deep gratitude that is associated with having received these First Ray Initiations. And therefore, not one of them could perceive of the importance of dealing with the building of the new King Arthur's Court first. None of them could understand why this is important.

     In this regard, the term "idolatry" in the Ascended Master lexicon, refers to the misqualification of the flame of God-Vision on the 10 o'clock line of the Cosmic Clock. The perversion of this flame, which is a substance of darkness that clogs the third eye chakra, is known as idolatry, because it involves making the Not- Self, that darkness which has clogged the third eye chakra, greater than the God-Self, who would clear that chakra. All members of the current leadership present this perverted example to the congregation. In their total blindness, they have placed the needs of the carnal mind ahead of the needs of the student-body. Thus, they build their own nest first, before attending to the needs of El Morya's Sanctuary, which is God's Sanctuary.

     The perversity of this act of blindness, is seen most clearly, against a clear vision of what is the most important thing that the student body needs, and quite clearly so, and that is to be taught the importance of the Master El Morya and his Teaching. And he has really made it quite simple for anyone to understand. Remember, that he has set before the community, this great process of dividing the wheat from the chaff as a prelude to bringing millions of souls into this organization. Remember what he said. I will quote it again.

"Since I am about to sponsor millions of souls for this activity and this Path, I must be certain that you who are here and who form the foundations of this Community throughout the earth are true to me."

     Now, as you can see, he has told the people what he is about to do. And it would be in error to believe that he will just back away, and abandon his plans, if the NOT-TRUE individuals remain. No. Given the context of his statement, which spoke about the removal from this community of those whom he likened to moths which choked off the central light, it ought to be quite clear, that for those who want to remain, and be a part of this grand expansion phase, they must prove to him, unto a level of certainty, that they are certainly true to him. And thus, this is a criteria for remaining in this organization. What could be more important then, as a Teaching priority on the part of the leadership of this church, than to make it clear, and to make it a very high priority, that every student know what it means to come into the definition of trueness, as a means by which their own godward path in this life could be salvaged. And therefore, a very simple act that would help all the members understand the centrality of this Master to their own survival on the path, would have been to address the needs of King Arthur's Court FIRST, making that part of the program of teaching the students what is the truth of the highest priority for them to assimilate at this time. But they did not. They placed upon the records, what they believe in their hearts, that their perceived needs, are more important than the stated needs of this Master.

     That is why, when these people are removed from this organization, that that Office Building will be torn down. Their facade upon King Arthur's Court will be ripped off. And King Arthur's Court, which has become a shrine to their (July 4, 2003) rebellion will itself be dismantled. And a new Cathedral will be built, a new King Arthur's Court will be built, on the ground for which it was first planned.

     The April 16, 1995 dictation given by the Master El Morya is central to understanding all of this. It tells the community, which he sponsored, what he is going to do. If the people choose to conform their hearts, minds, and souls to the program, then they will march with him in this grand procession of planetary victory. If not, they will be left behind. You can see the agenda of the False Hierarchy working through the current leadership of this church, trying to make sure that as many as possible will be left behind.

     And of course, this dictation, on its face, exposes the foolishness of the idea that Marilyn Barrick made her ascension. Look at the title of the dictation, which are quotes taken from the Master's words. This is the title:

"Clean House! I AM the Champion of My Chelas, If You
Make Your Bed in the Psychic, You Will Have to Lie in It!"

     First of all, we see from these words, Clean House!, that those who dabble in the psychic are OUT. That's what Clean House means. And that means Marilyn Barrick is OUT. Let us go over the basics of this one more time. The whole concept of Marilyn Barrick's book on parenting, is astral, and psychic, as it builds upon the foundation of falsehood delivered by the psychic channelers, beginning with the channelers of the Kryon entity, regarding the specialness of "crystal", or "indigo" children. This concept has no roots in the Teachings of the Ascended Masters delivered by the Messengers. Go to Pearls Online, and put those keywords into the search box, and you will see that no documents are returned. And moreover, look at the qualities that these channelers attribute to these "special" children. (I quote those statements in the Front Page article). These are qualities that are more associated with highly rebellious souls, perhaps with high attainment on the left-handed path. Not highly spiritual souls.

     And so Barrick made her bed in the psychic, a fact which her book on Dreams underscores the more, as the Masters never taught their students to use dreams as a tool to either understand or heal their psychology. This is because 99% of anyone's dreams are the astral excrement of the subconscious mind, which is kept subconscious for a reason.

     And what does Morya say about those who make their bed in the psychic? Does he say they will make their ascension? No. He tells them straight out, "You Will Have to Lie in It" And so, Barrick is lying in the bed that she made for herself. She is in the grip of the psychic at this very moment. Not in any etheric heavenly region, let alone having made her ascension.

     If you desire to continue on in your belief, after pondering these truths, that Barrick made her ascension, then you can see in your own mind the fruit of Barrick's life. She has sewn within your mind, not just the seed of rebellion against the Master El Morya, but the fully blossomed flower of rebellion, and thus, chained YOU to her own fate, that you will not be able to continue on in this organization when the expansion phase comes. Barrick herself was removed, according to the promise of the Master El Morya. Those who worship her falling star, the shining star of rebellion, will suffer the same fate. And it is a sad fate. Remember the dweller as a cancer grew in her very throat robbing her of the very capacity to shout the fiats unto God that would have driven it back into the shadows from whence it had come.

     One must wonder what is the origin of the Mexican Pinata tradition. This is where a stuffed animal, one made out of paper mache I believe, and stuffed with little gifts which blind-folded children take swings at with large sticks, in order to break it open, and thus to cause all of the treasures to fall out. Wherein they can all rush up to grab their goodies.

     I just tuned into the Fox News Channel, looking for the evening news, but found a rock concert going on. And what came to my mind was the treasure filled chakras of the Children of God, like these pinatas, with stick wielding demons surrounding it in all sides, taking powerfully swings at it, to make it burst, causing the treasures to fall into their hands.

     Isn't this true? Every rock musician is angry at something. Only a person angry at heart, can be comfortable with such acts of violence against their own chakras. Even if they are drenched with the sweetness thereof. But most of the sweet liquid however runs off their skin, and into the waiting cups of the hordes of darkness, who will be back for more.

     This is my universal response to all who have taken great offense at the content of my Whited Sepulchre article. Indeed, you have been shaken out of a deep sleep, and I can't blame you for being excessively irritated and disappointed, for instead of your eyes meeting the paradise of victory which these false pastors have promised, you see all too clearly, and with great horror, the inside of the dark dungeon cell of psychic entrapment into which you have been led. From henceforth, and to your greater consternation, you will grab for your big soft teddy bears of delusion in vain. And so, I say to all of you ....

     Your reaction is emblematic of the shadowy cloud of spiritual failure into which these false pastors have led the entire congregation. These false pastors deceive the people into believing that they are being led up the mountain of spiritual attainment, while the truth is, that they are being corralled into a domain of psychic delusion wherein the Masters cannot reach them from inner levels.

     My writings are filled with those principles which the mind must hold fast to, and hold steady, to form the chalice of devotion --- devotion to truth, devotion to principle, not devotion to outer personalities --- into which the Masters lower real knowledge of one's divine identity. Yet, as you can see from your reaction, you are being emotionally manipulated into rejecting the very principles you must learn to hold fast if you are going to gain your own victory in the light. And you can see why, when you react to these principles, as they come out of my mouth, as if they were the principles of the enemy, that you will also see them, you will also react to them as principles of the enemy, and reject them outright, when the Real Master tries to teach you these principles from the inner. Thus, the Children of God are led into a domain of inner darkness where the very input of God is seen as the input of the enemy.

     You wonder why it is so difficult to bring the teeming billions on this planet into the light? This is why.

     As I hold up to you the principles of truth that are vital to your own victory, you accuse me of indulging subtle hatreds. And when you see these very same principles trying to be born within you, you will run likewise in the opposite direction. Thus by following the false pastors, by assimiliating their example, the process of building the chalice of devotion within is aborted.

     This is a tragedy, because this chalice of devotion, composed of your very devotion to the principles of truth, it is the Holy Grail. Or would be. Even the womb of the Divine Mother, where the Christ Child gestates.

     The chalice composed of truth, that it might hold a larger truth, falls apart, disintegrates when you try to graft upon it the principle compromise.

     The soul must rise out of the deep shadow of amnesia in which it is currently emeshed. For this to happen, you must have that chalice. The Light of Truth, as to who you really are in God, is added unto you, a little bit at a time (as you pass your tests and fulfill the requirements of the path). And there must be place to receive, and to nurture these little bits of truth, these pieces of the cosmic jigsaw puzzle. You must have this chalice of devotion to contain them, a chalice built of the very molecules of your expressed loyalty to the truth, all molecules held together by the power of your own devotion to the truth, in order that it can become strong enough to hold the greatest truth of all, which is your own Christhood.. Within this chalice is resurrected the divine narrative, your own personal divine narrative, that you climb as a golden ladder out of the murky depths of your amnesia. These false pastors are robbing the entire congregation of the opportunity to build this all important chalice of truth, as they champion the importance of their persons, over the importance of principle, even the principle of accountabily for their betrayal of the teaching. By forcing the congregation to sip the poison of compromise, they ensure the destruction of these golden chalices.

     As Jesus said of the false pastors, they don't enter in, and they block others from entering in. This is how they do it. They abort the process of building these golden chalices, by infusng, through the power of their high offices, the principle of compromise into the consciousness of the congregation. That's how they do it.

     You have, along with most members of the organization, by following these false pastors, become trapped in a domain of loyalty to outer personalities, wherein your devotional nature has been harnessed to the task of championing those persons who, through their example, trash the very principles you must rely on for your own victory, even the Teaching of El Morya. Thus, they lead the whole into an abyss of failure, even while your minds are filled with the false idea that you are being led up the mountain. And so it has been happening from the very beginning.

     This domain of idolatry, to where loyalty to a person trumps loyalty to principle, is where the mind is carried into such a domain of darkness, whereby it loses touch with the standard, the criteria, for truth. It doesn't have a firm grasp on it any more. In that domain, I can hold up the truth in front of your face, but because that truth casts an unbecoming light upon those (outer individuals) to whom you have given your loyalty, you see the truth as the enemy, and not as your friend. And thus, as noted, you accuse the truth bearer of being a messenger of hatred. That is the domain of relativity in which the carnal mind is trapped. And this is how the Children of God have been led astray from the beginning.

     But, make no mistake about it. If you would study my writing closely, all of the articles on the front page, you would see that it exhibits a uniform dedication and loyalty to the truth, and to the principles espoused by the Master El Morya. This is what he taught us. The principles of victory. I remain loyal to Him, and to His Teaching. And thus, I remain loyal to the only path by which you yourself can gain the victory. I remain loyal to His vision of victory for this organization.

     Yes, I remain loyal to the rose, and to its blossoming future when I scrape the aphids off the bud. From the perspective of the aphid, perhaps this can be seen as an act of agression, an act of hatred. But not so from the perspective of the gardener who desires only to see the rose blossom to its fullest potential. Truly the gardener squishes the aphids between his fingers and feels no remorse. Those who have learned to love the aphids more than the gardener, they have a problem in differentiating what is real, what is valuable, from what is not.

     You know, it is very ironic. You fire the arrow in my direction, that says you are either with us, or against us, when the truth is, this is exactly what the Masters are saying to you, and you cannot hear them. You have cast your lot in with a group of leaders who are polarized against the Master El Morya in their hearts, they are rebels to the core, and their large magnet of darkness carries you in their wake. And you have not, so far, the power to resist.

     May you pass every test.

     We can all learn a lesson from this photo taken of former prime minister Benazir Bhutto standing up through the sun roof of her armored bullet-proof and blast-proof car, just moments before an assassine, having a clear shot, killed her. See the full story at this CNN Story Link.

     She would be alive today if she would have just remained seated.

     It demonstrates for us the importance of cultivating a strong habit and momentum of following our divine directions. That habit, at some point, could save our lives.

     A reader was very kind to send me, for which I thank him, a beautiful (internet) Christmas Card which I would like to share with you. It is a Flash animation that is done very well, which has an Angel of Light appearing to the shepherds announcing the Birth of Christ. It portrays the blazing light of the angel in a very effective manner, very realistic. A simple musical accompaniment, and the scripture from the Book of Luke is woven into the presentation in a very artful manner in my opinion. As it has a replay button, look for it at the lower right hand corner at the last frame, you can play it several times in a row, and really get a sense of entering into the scene which it depicts. I like it a lot. Please make sure that you are reading the words as they appear. The content of the meaning of these words in your mind is integral to the experience. It is very much like the angels speak to us through the heavenly portal that these words form in our mind. The power of the word you know.

     The entire Spirit of the Great White Brotherhood, which means the entire Heavenly Host, from one end of this universe to the other, and the Master Jesus Christ himself as their primary standard bearer 2,000 years ago, intended the Christian religion to be like the Mt. Everest Base Camp. People were supposed to climb out of the valley of human foolishness, blindness, and strife, and up to this base camp, where they would become acclimated to the higher altitude, and have time to prepare themselves overall to reach the Summit.

     However, the highest hopes and dreams of the Master Jesus Christ to this end were dashed early on. Probably as early as the third century AD when the Emperor Constantine made the Christian Religion the state religion of the Roman Empire, and its doctrine was fashioned and molded from that time forward to serve the political needs of that empire. And so, the Base Camp never lived up to its high potential. But how exactly was the purpose of this Base Camp sidetracked from its original purpose?

     It is because the fallen angels came into that Base Camp, and built high walls of false doctrine all around it whereby the summit of Everest could no longer be seen. The condition of divine functionality which Jesus Christ himself exhibited, was the Summit of Everest. As He said, he was to make of each of us Sons of God. As He said, each of us were to perform the works that he performed. But that summit, that condition of perfect divine functionality which he demonstrated, was walled off from all Christians, from everyone in the base camp, that trail was closed down, when the fallen angels declared Jesus Christ to be the ONLY son of God. In other words, no one else could reach that summit. Only Jesus could reach that summit. And so, these false pastors told all the Sherpas to go home, as they would not be needed any longer. Moreover, all the guides who knew the way to the summit, and who were ready and willing to lead others, were told to go away as well, because the goal of Christian doctrine did not any longer include the concept of actually putting one foot in front of the other to reach a distant summit. A summit that was by definition now unattainable.

     And so, behind these high walls of false doctrine, the minds of the people fell into a condition of blindness, indeed, as the peak they thought they were approaching when Jesus Christ himself called them to the Base Camp, all of a sudden disappears when you reach it and enter into the deep shadow cast by its high ornate walls. In the midst and murkiness of this shadow, the people sort of mill around in confusion, wondering what to do next, and they are told to sit down, and listen to the all-knowing priest, who fills their minds with the delusions of a false theology authored by the scribes of Lucifer himself, where they are taught that no one had to consider the long and arduous climb any longer, even if that's what they thought coming in, even as a result of having being shown the peak by the Master Jesus Himself, they find out that they were wrong. No climbing necessary out of this Base Camp. No one had to worry about preparing themselves any longer for any arduous journey up the steep cliffs and overhangs of karmic opposition. But rather, this new god, created out of the memory of Jesus Christ, and to whom they gave the name of Jesus Christ, to more thoroughly confuse the people, would lift them all up into an everlasting life of eternal happiness and bliss, a synthetic summit of personal happiness, totally self-centered to boot, and to hell with the populations of the earth, if they only believed in him. Indeed, they were taught to wash their hands, and their hearts, and their minds, just as Pontius Pilate did, of any concern about the destiny of the earth, a holy act to prepare themselves to take the hand of this new god, who would lift them into the marble halls of ever lasting spiritual fulfillment. That's all you had to do. Just believe. And presto, this huge golden hand would reach down from heaven and pluck you up, and set you gently down in the midst of the most beautiful paradise valley of which your mind could conceive.

     However, and here's the rub, you had to die first (they are taught to worship death as the portal to everlasting life) only then would you know if their theology was true. And by then it was too late for you, when you found out they were telling you a lie, and you had to go back into embodiment, find your way back into that Base Camp, and then find a way through those walls of false doctrine, through which you might find the true path to the summit which Jesus Christ intended you to find from the very first.

     Actually, a few did find their way to the Summit from the Base Camp, as the Master Jesus Christ is always trying to light a fire under those who say they love him. But every time a climber found a crack through the walls, and squeezed through, found the trail, and actually reached the summit, the false pastors would find out where the crack was in their wall of false theology, and they would close it. And so after 2,000 years, the wall of false doctrine became almost impervious to penetration. Anyone who actually made it to the base camp, never left it. Sure, it sits higher on the mountain side than any other institution in human culture, but still, it became a dead end for getting lots of people to the summit.

     The degree of solidity of those walls of false doctrine which hem in the Christian pilgrims and their aspirations can be discerned by the way in which the Christian leaders have learned to handle the issue of progressive revelation. They have built active defense measures against progressive revelation. Even though common sense will tell you, due to the word of mouth culture that existed during the lifetime of Jesus Christ and for centuries thereafter, that a spiritual teacher can only convey to the people what their minds can readily understand, in as much as a mind that can't understand something, cannot pass it down to others in an accurate manner, a fact which demands that the Christian Tradition be open to Progressive Revelation, nevertheless, Christian Theologians hold the Bible to be the beginning and the ending of all sacred truth. The Blessed Mother Mary has been sent on a mission, through her appearances to various people, to the children at Fatima as one example, to see if she could add some additional truth to the body of Christian doctrine. That is, to create a crack in the walls of false doctrine. But no, they have even closed off that avenue. If Mother Mary herself says something that goes against the false doctrines of the Church, the Church Fathers declare that particular "Mother Mary" to be a fraud.

     Once the Heavenly Host realized that this particular base camp would never be able to serve the purposes for which it was originally established, they began the process of building another base camp on the side of the mountain, one which would be designed, as the Christian base camp was first designed, to get millions of souls to the summit of Everest. The building of the trail to this new Base Camp began in the 1920's through the teachings of Nicholas and Elena Roerich, students of the Ascended Master El Morya. The trail was widened, and lengthened to a higher point on the mountain through the Messengers of the Great White Brotherhood, Guy and Edna Ballard who established the I Am Movement in the 1930's. The trail was further widened and further lengthened through the efforts of the next Messengers of the Great White Brotherhood Mark and Elizabeth Prophet. Their labors began in 1958, and extended through the year 1999. With the establishment of Church Universal and Triumphant, in the mid 1970's the Base Camp was finally established at the pre-envisioned site high on the mountain side. It is a new Base Camp, established for the purpose of the summiting of millions of souls.

     And so, this is my point to all of you who have climbed to this new base camp. This new base camp which is supposed to serve the summiting needs of millions. The fallen angels have climbed to this new base camp as well. They have covered themselves with the illusion of spiritual authority. They are masters of illusion in this regard. The Masters have taught us this. Yet this teaching is largely ignored. And through that illusion of authority, they are currently in the process of building walls of false theology around this new base camp, blocking and obscuring the view of the summit. Just as they did in the Christian base camp, they are doing the same thing here. They are telling the sherpas to go away, as they are not needed anymore. They are telling the guides to go away, as they are not needed anymore. It is happening all over again. If they have their way, this Base camp will be walled in by impenetrable blocks of delusion, just like those they built around the Christian base camp. And just like the Christians, they will be able to persuade you to worship those walls, and to believe those walls are real, and moreover they will engage you in the effort to throw the sherpas out, as they could never do it without your cooperation.

     Their work is considerably advanced. The walls of delusion they have already built around the base camp inhabitants are already substantial, and they are getting higher every day.

     True enough, some might say, and with great sincerity, "The Masters would never let that happen." But that in itself is a half-truth that weds the soul to the very delusions the fallen angels perpetrate upon the inhabitants of this new base camp. Certainly, the Masters don't want this to happen. But if no one in the base camp stands up to oppose the fallen angels in their efforts to destroy the usefulness of this new base camp, there is nothing the Masters can do.

     This is the truth. What happens to the base camp, is ultimately in the hands of those who are in the base camp. The Experience of the Christian base camp proves the point.

     Indeed, the Ascended Masters had high hopes for the Christian Base Camp. The all-power of God was behind all efforts to realize the full victorious potential of that base camp. But it came to pass that the inhabitants of the base camp allowed the fallen angels to implement their anti-God, their anti-summiting agenda. There was no one left to stand in opposition to it. And anyone sent in on the mission of opposing the agenda of the fallen angels, and their false theology, were either ejected (with the applause of the congregation) or co-opted into it. And so, the Masters had to stand aside, and allow that Base Camp to become a dead end for most who arrive there. Higher on the mountain true enough. But a dead end. For all intents and purposes, the odds of anyone actually summiting from that base camp are nil.

     And so, the same principles apply to this new Base camp. If the inhabitants don't stand up and oppose the agenda of the fallen angels, their anti-summiting agenda, the agenda that opposes the soul rising to the level of divine functionality which Jesus Christ himself exhibited, then it too will eventually become a dead end, just as the Christian base camp became a dead end. Our base camp is perhaps higher on the mountainside, but it could become just as much as a dead end for the weary travelers as the Christian base camp has become, through which no souls can summit, because the summiting program will have been turned upside down, as it is even now being turned upside-down.

     Every article on the December 2007 Front Page speaks to this. It is geared towards this important work of getting those who have fallen into the soup of delusion which the fallen angels have produced, to wake up, and to take the Base camp back for the purposes of the Ascended Masters.

     Here is a short and sweet Christmas video made by the Knights of Columbus last Christmas 2006, which they are airing on cable networks during this Christmas season as well. It provides a good focal point for our meditation on the value of children. More powerful on a large screen of course, so capture it on your DVR when you see it. But this will do. The song is done by country music singer Patty Loveless, the first time I have heard her sing. I think she renders this Christmas tune in a nice manner. She has a Christmas CD available: Bluegrass & White Snow: A Mountain Christmas. You can listen to samples of it at Amazon.com.

     The very old American Folk tune, Down in the Valley, I believe, embodies a very fundamental structure of truth, and that, I believe, is why it resonates within the American soul in such a universal manner.

Down in the valley, valley so low
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow
Hear the wind blow, dear, hear the wind blow
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow

Roses love sunshine, violets love dew
Angels in heaven know I love you
Know I love you, love, know I love you
Angels in heaven know I love you

     The valley referred to in the song, is the one referred to in Psalm 23, Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death. The valley is a symbol for the physical plane, and the condition of human Maya, karmic burdens, and twin flame separation that the people of God experience therein. The words of the song, "hang your head over, hear the winds blow" has a ring of sorrow to it, as we consider the whole spectrum of alienation from the divine that life in the valley represents. Alienation from God, alienation from our brothers and sisters in heaven, and alienation from our twin flame. The winds in this case, I think, are karmic winds, for the soul does not meet them with happiness. Yet the song carries a core of beauty and love in the words, "angels in heaven, know I love you," as the heart of the twin flame reaches out to the heart of the other twin flame over the distances of time and space. This is the core anchor of the soul, the love of twin flames, that which the soul remembers with the most precious passion and cherishment, feelings and experiences we all have recorded in our Causal Bodies, which this song helps us contact in some measure.

     This particular rendition of the song that I want to share with you, was recorded for a child audience, as part of a collection of Folk Song Lullabies recorded by Phil Rosenthal and Family. It is executed in a very simple manner, and the more powerful for it, and features the union of the male and female voices, which allows the listener to access with a firmer grasp, that domain of twin flame memory mentioned above.

     In commemoration of the appearance today of Pastor Joel Olsteen of Lakewood Church of Houston Texas, on Fox News Sunday, I have something to say.

     Shame on you Joel Olsteen for trying to get the whole world to smile along with you, as millions of the most defenseless are trampled under your insensitive feet. "For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark ... " (Mt.24:38).

     What ETERNAL purpose is served by helping people to make their material lives better, when a flood will cover them at any moment? That is the message of the life of Noah, spent warning the people, yet they would not listen. Even then, they only had ears for happy talk.

     There is no genuine spiritual life present in any individual when that individual can allow the innocent to be murdered under your own nose by the thousands every single day. The spiritual flame wants to be born in them. But the Light of it can never ignite when the psychology, the happy human psychology, covers over that flame like a wet blanket. What you are teaching, in the name of Jesus Christ, is how people can become more perfectly selfish, more perfectly self-centered, more impervious to the truth that lies on their own doorstep, even as they drink and make merry behind that closed door. Shame on you. If I could, I would reach up and rip that smile right off your face like a fake mustache. How can YOU be happy, knowing that you lift not a finger for the thousands of God's Most Defenseless Souls who are murdered in the womb every day? The number is 48 million America citizens destroyed in the womb since 1973, and you want to teach people how to live positive and constructive lives oblivious to this truth?

     You are partly right in what you preach. God desires his people to be happy. But he also desires them to care about the defenseless. He also desires them to show some mercy in that direction. He wants someone to stand up and stop the slaughter of the innocent, to put a shield between the defenseless body of the child, and the murdering hands of the abortionist. That someone is you. And you. And you. And you. Pointing to every single member of your congregation, even as they heap piles of gold into your collection plates. My God, when you say to your flock "Discover the Champion in You," you turn the meaning upside down when you teach neglect of the innocent, that there are more important things to focus on than the destruction of the innocent by the thousands every day right under their own noses, in their nation, in their States, in their communities. God's prophets have always taught the people that they can never be truly happy, and they can never receive the healing of the Almighty themselves, until they make room for these virtues in their own hearts. And so, while you are somewhat right about happiness, about God wanting people to feel good about who they are, you are ninety percent wrong by ignoring the plight of the innocent, and encouraging people to believe they can live useful and productive lives while ignoring the stench of death and injustice that is all around them.

     This is the word of God our Father, given long ago, carrying a very important message to the people, "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." (2CH 7:14) There is a formula here. If you preach healing, or promise healing, and neglect to include this important element of the formula, "and turn from their wicked ways", you are not telling the people the whole truth. You are giving a cancer patient a sugar pill.

     Joel, while people eat up your happy talk, this cancer of neglect grows ever larger within their own souls, look at how it grows, even as you powder their nose, and try to teach them how to paint their faces so they will feel more positive about what they see in the mirror. But truly, how can a soul of God have any genuine respect for itself, when it knows that it is a coward, knows that it is a coward, and will not stand up for the most innocent lives in our midst?

     The psychology that promotes abortion, or looks the other way, that psychology is with the person in the midst of every relationship, it cannot be escaped. It is part of the relationship with the spouse, the children, the brother, the sister, the father, the mother, the aunt, the uncle, the coworker, the friend. That psychology is even present in the relationship the soul has with itself, and it is present in the relationship the soul has with God. That psychology poisons every relationship, in one way or another. When a sprout of goodness is being born within a particular relationship, that psychology will move to cut if off, seeing wisdom and justice in the infliction of pain and discomfort upon life, even in all the little ways that cause relationships to collapse over time.

     You make an egregious error by persuading people that they can find healing, for themselves, or their relationships, without first casting out their own personal abortionist (the psychology which is at the root of the championship of abortion, or that psychology which desires to look the other way).

     And so, I would say to you, tell the people the whole truth, not just the part that makes you popular.

     May you pass every test.

     I have used the following opening statement to begin every decree service for many many years. And I can tell you that it has power to bring down the light at the beginning of the service on most (average) days. This is because Gratitude is the foundation for all attainment, and it is related to the soul's keenest sense of divine truth. The first three paragraphs are universally applicable. The fourth paragraph can be modified to more precisely fit your personal experience. And the fifth paragraph will only need minor modifications. Remember, gratitude is the foundation for all attainment. There are no exceptions to this rule. If you don't feel grateful, is it nevertheless an important habit to cultivate, to express gratitude anyway, for what you know you ought to feel grateful for, if you were in your right (divine) mind.

     "O God My Dear Heavenly Father and My Dear Heavenly Mother, Please receive this soul before thy Gracious Holy Altar; please make it so, that the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart are acceptable in thy sight, my Lord, My God, My Redeemer.

     Beloved Father, I would like to invite every gracious Being of Light that comprise the entire Spirit of the Great White Brotherhood to please join us, and to give forth all of these calls with us here.

     I would like to take this opportunity to express my Gratitude to Mark Prophet and Elizabeth Prophet for their Blessed Dedication to the Will of God over so many years, which gave me, and so many others, the opportunity to find the Masters, the Teaching, and the Science of the Spoken Word ...

      .... which gave me, and so many others, the opportunity to attend so many conferences, seminars, and services at Camelot, the Inner Retreat, and the Ashram of the World Mother, and of course the opportunity to have attended Summit University. I would like to express my gratitude for the opportunity to have attended so many blessed services in the Chapel of the Holy Grail at Camelot and so many live dictations there. I would like to take this opportunity to invoke the full gathered momentum of all the Light released by the Ascended Masters in those dictations for which I was personally present for the express purpose of expanding my capacity to contribute constructively and victoriously to the incoming Great Golden Age of St. Germain.

     This which I call forth for myself, I call forth for Erin, Sean, Tatiana, and Moira, [other persons which you might be inspired to add here], all members of the Summit Lighthouse and Church Universal and Triumphant, the millions of souls that the Master El Morya desires to draw into the Teachings, and the millions of the souls that the Masters desire to see ascended in the light and free, even from the Heart of the Inner Retreat."

     Again, gratitude, it is the foundation for everything. I encourage every student to build a momentum of expressing and feeling it along the lines referred to here, in regards to the gift of the Masters, the Messengers, and the Teaching.

     May you pass every test.

     What is Purity? Being able to hold the Reality of God's Love (for you personally), as one quantity unobscured within the whole pool of consciousness.

     As you affirm this truth, directly, and forcefully, you introduce the quality of purity into the pool of consciousness.

     Now, these four arrows go straight to the center of the target of purity.

1. In the Name of Jesus Christ and St. Germain, I demand and I command that every atom, cell, and electron of my entire consciousness, being, and world, come into alignment with this great truth that God my dearly Heavenly Father, my dear Heavenly Mother, They Have Great Love for Me.

2. The central principle of God-Harmony is the truth of God's Infinite love for me. It is a truth I must assimilate.

3. The soul cannot allow anything but the Purest Gold of God's Love to enter into the equation of self-worth.

4. The greatest desire of God my Father and Mother, is for me to know the Reality of Their Love.

     But make note of this interesting truth as well. Purity has three aspects, corresponding to the three aspects of the threefold flame, and they must be in balance for purity to be made manifest in your temple. This is what I mean.

     To expand your realization of God's Love (for you personally), the Purpose (blue flame) component must be expanded first. And before that can happen, one must experience an expansion of understanding, or illumination, which sheds light on the subject of God's Purpose, and how your little gear is supposed to mesh with the greater clockwork. Once you have understanding, then you must act, you must mesh your little gear into the clockwork of life, and make it spin, that being the blue flame component. And the return current delivered to you, from on high, is an incremental expansion of your experience of God's Love for you personally. Actually, that POWER from on high, is the actual substance of purity, the actual reality of purity, it is the power that clears the pool, it is the power that transforms the mud hole, into a crystal body of water once again.

     The call compels the answer. The Masters respond. They send understanding, which breeds appreciation within us, which motivates us to action, which, in turn, will draw the truth down into your temple, tangibly manifest, of how much God Love's you personally, by giving you the power of freedom from the substance of astral pollution. These are the components of purity. They represent one dynamic whole, ever expanding.

     Note where the wrench of doubt can be thrown in to stop this process in its tracks. You have made the call, and the Master has given you understanding. Before the flame of appreciation has a chance to grow up within you to a level that can inspire action, doubt is injected, contradicting the point of understanding, producing indecision, and hesitation. Thus, the race horse never leaps out of the starting gate.

     Doubt and fear are two of the most insidious obstacles to achieving the goal of establishing purity (the knowledge of God's Love for You) in your temple. But, you can attack doubt and fear directly by affirming the four points of truth listed above. In other words, you can take these four swords of truth, and use them to steadfastly lop the head off of the demons of doubt and fear. No more bowing down before them. No more sympathy for their false logic. You unsheate your shining sword, and you swing it with great precision, and you lop off their heads cleanly. But you can do that only when you have overcome the grip they have on your sword hand. That is their first line of defense. The grip they have on your sword hand. They want to make sure you never unsheathe these swords. They want to keep your pool polluted and dark, so astral creatures unseen, can continue to swim up close and gnaw upon the flesh of your soul.

     Purity, then, ought to be seen as a preeminent condition of safety.

     May you pass every test.

     The soul is not meant to be blind. We are meant to stand in the midst of the valley of paradise with our eyes wide open.

     We are meant to behold the majesty of white mountain peaks forever. And the delicate beauty of alpine flowers for all time.

     What is there for a blind soul to do, then, but to grasp the white cane of reason, remembering that logic derived from blindness is always a false logic and the certainty derived therefrom always delusion. But certainty in the light, that is wisdom.

     Where are the eyes of the soul, and whenst will they be open? And when will the beauty of the light pour through them again?

     The blind soul is wise to stuff the pages of the Teaching into the empty sockets.

     As the pages of the teaching burst into the flames of devotion, the eyes of the Master appear.

     Like gems, do they grow into the eyes of God for you to use forever.

     When I bought this rat trap at the Home Depot several months ago, I admit I was skeptical, and it sat in its unopened package in a garage cabinet for a long time. Perhaps it seemed too revolutionary in appearance and functionality to be a plausible alternative to the traps that we have all been using, and which haven't changed much since the time of the Romans.

     But after I found out that the new Electronic Rat traps, which I wrote about some time back, were more trouble than they were worth, you had to keep them clean, or they wouldn't work, and you needed to replace the batteries, and 9 out of ten rats would not venture into it, I tried this one. And after a few months experience with it, I have to say that this is the best rat trap I have ever used, bar none.

     There are four very valuable features to this rat trap, in comparison to the standard traps.

     First, setting the trap is easy, and this is no small matter. With the regular traps, you have to be very careful to get the trigger bar set just right, or the trap will snap closed with a bang before you have a chance to set it on the floor. And if you have your fingers in the wrong place, with these larger traps, that could mean a broken finger, or a least one seriously injured.

	Regular Rat Trap Difficult to Set

Moreover, when the regular traps get older, it becomes more and more diffucult to set the trigger bar without experiencing these false triggers. I think this is because the metal begins to wear away ever so slightly, just enough to make the hair trigger, a much finer hair trigger. And so, setting a regular rat trap of this size is always an anxiety producer. And things that produce anxiety we tend to avoid, so if a rat gets lucky and eats the bait without springing the trap we will tend to put off the process of rebaiting and resetting. The Victor® Power Kill Rat Trap eliminates this issue. I can't begin to explain the ingenious mechanism it uses, but I can tell you that it is positively locking. You pull the kill bar back, and snap it into place, and it locks down tight. No fear about it flying back out at you in an unexpected manner. I have never experienced a false trigger with this trap. So setting it has totally eliminated the anxiety factor. It is a genuine pleasure to use, all the more so if you have had experience with the regular kind of anxiety producing rat traps. And therefore, there is no reluctance to resetting this trap when necessary. And that means you will catch more rats over the long term.

     Second, this trap has largely eliminated this interesting phenomena that I have seen repeatedly with the standard traps where the rat can eat the bait off the bait platform without triggering the trap. Rats have learned to lick lightly, without jarring the bait platform. And thus they get away with the food without getting trapped. I found that this was also a problem with the electronic rat traps. But, the Victor® Power Kill Rat Trap eliminates this issue, because triggering is not associated with any pressure the rat applies to the bait or the platform on which the bait rests. This trap is triggered by the rat placing its paws upon the trigger platform. In the image above, this is the plastic platform that surrounds the circular bait cup in the center. The weight of the rat's body upon this surround platform is what triggers this trap, not the daintiness of its eating habits. With this trap I have never seen a rat get away with the bait without getting sapped.

     Third, because the clean end of the kill bar ends up perpendicular to the trap after it is triggered, one can see that in the image above, it is really easy to pull the bar back and allow the rat to drop into the trash. Very smart design in this respect as well.

     And fourth, because the rat triggers the trap with the weight of its body, and that weight is placed on the trigger platform before the rat can get to the food, more often than not the rat will not be able to eat much if any of the bait before the trap springs closed. And this means that you don't have to rebait it very often. I have caught three rats on this trap over the last month without having to add any additional peanut butter to the cup.

     In fact, the first time I set this trap out, I caught three rats inside of one hour. Snap! Gotcha! Anxiety free reset, no need to rebait. Snap! Gotcha! Anxiety free reset, no need to rebait. Snap! Gotcha! Anxiety free reset, no need to rebait. It proved itself right then and there.

     For myself, I will never buy another one of those regular rat traps again. Sure this trap costs twice as much as the older style, $4.00 for the Victor M144 Power Kill, as compared to the $2.00 for the wooden platform traditional Victor M201. But for all the reasons set forth above, they are worth every penny.

     You can buy these directly from VictorPest, or find them at your local Home Depot, or other home improvement stores.

     Every little piece of truth, is a little piece of God.

     What will you do? Throw it to the wolves?

     Or hold it safe behind the shield of your heart?

     And into every pack of wolves you will carry a torch.

     And the light will burn their eyes.

     And they will flee.

     Only then can we resurrect the carcass upon which
     they have been feeding.

     The noble deer will stand on four legs again.

     And her soft eyes will behold the beauty of the world.

     And she will stand once again beside the waters of the crystal lake.

     And without fear she will drink therefrom.

     And she will be at peace.

     May you pass every test.

     Atheist talk, the clickity clack of insects rubbing their legs together. Crickets ... The noise they make has meaning only to other crickets, and the meaning fits their tiny minds like a tiny glove. A glove that can only hold a tiny drop of wisdom which they mistake for the breadth and depth of cosmic knowledge. And with these tiny hands they shake on it. And they form their tiny friendships and their tiny alliances. A tiny community of tiny crickets, making a lot of noise, but all of it, never signifying anything more than the tiny agenda of their tiny minds. The entire cosmos can ignore then, even for centuries, and in all of that time, they would find that they have not missed even one single molecule of useful or valuable truth. This is why God our Father created crickets. Indeed it was an act of kindness, and act of love, for the Atheists themselves, so they would have an accurate reference point of co-measurement.

     I Am the pearl of God realization that you wear on your finger. A man should be able to say that to his twin flame. Though I suppose, that years ago, this would not have been true, in as much as a pearl takes time to develop, incrementally, as it has been said before. In this work of art, the diamonds, 12 in number, signify the purity of the Will of God manifest on each of the twelve lines of the Cosmic Clock; even as indestructible determination. How else can all the layers of the pearl represent purity and luminosity? It is the only way.
