Seraphim of God Establish an Amphitheater of Light over Chicago with the Queen of Angels in the Center
A Violet Flame Magnet to Draw More Violet Fire from the Great Central Sun
Hail, flaming ones from the Great Central Sun!
Welcome to the city of the heart!1
O legions of Light, show thyselves unto all!
For round about this city this day seraphim of God and angels of victory, legions of white fire and of the wisdom ray come forth. And they form by their beings of light a giant amphitheater, as it were, their light bodies providing a chalice congruent with and containing this entire city so that everyone in this city in this moment is experiencing at some level the presence of an angel of God, an angel of victory or a seraphim from on high.
O six-winged ones, lo, I AM come!
I AM Justinius, Captain of Seraphic Bands. And each and every angel who does enter the city does wield the great sword of sacred fire. Beware, ye hellions! Beware, ye who do not take care to be tidy in the word, tidy in the solar plexus, tidy in the mind.
Come, then. Kneel before the Cosmic Virgin, Mary the Mother of Jesus, and receive from her heart a cleansing. Receive it early, for it is not every day that the Queen of Angels does present herself in the very midst of an amphitheater formed by angels of Light.
Wherefore cometh these hosts, then?
We come to quicken, to multiply and to celebrate the violet flame that has been invoked in this city by students of the I AM movement, by those who have followed in the wake of the Great Causal Bodies of Godfre and Lotus and all who have been a part of the cause of Saint Germain in this century.2 Therefore, for the work of the many and the few, there is a violet flame magnet that has been placed here to draw from the Central Sun more violet fire.
Therefore I give that decree with you now. For all seraphim of God would chorus with you - truly in the name of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit and the Mother, Mary - this their call to the violet flame.
May I lead you, beloved hearts, and may you stand in honor of such a company of heavenly hosts that does grace the earth this day.
Lovely God Presence, I AM in me,
Hear me now I do decree:
Bring to pass each blessing for which I call
Upon the Holy Christ Self of each and all.
Let Violet Fire of Freedom roll
Round the world to make all whole;
Saturate the earth and its people, too,
With increasing Christ-radiance shining through.
I AM this action from God above,
Sustained by the hand of heaven's Love,
Transmuting the causes of discord here,
Removing the cores so that none do fear.
I AM, I AM, I AM
The full power of Freedom's Love
Raising all earth to heaven above.
Violet Fire now blazing bright,
In living beauty is God's own Light
Which right now and forever
Sets the world, myself and all life
Eternally free in Ascended-Master Perfection.
Almighty I AM! Almighty I AM! Almighty I AM!
Now you may multiply this call by the sounding of the Om. Send the Om from your heart to the Great Source of Life, to the heart of Brahman and the Word, and see how the Om returns to you, forming a circle of light between you and the Central Sun of the Godhead.
Therefore, with all seraphim of God intone the Sacred Word:
[Congregation joins Holy Justinius and seraphim of God in sounding the Om:]
So be seated in the Light of your Presence.
On this day of the celebration of the ascension of a son of God, Lanello by name, we come therefore to prophesy your victory, to prophesy the holiness of God descending upon you.
Seraphim of the Central Sun, recapture, then, the spirit of Liberty in every heart upon earth! Mend the flaws! Mend the rents in the garments! And let those who are the servants of the Light close ranks.
At the conclusion of this day you shall form a circle, and in the center of that circle there shall stand Mary the Mother, the Queen of Angels. And you will form that circle of oneness, reinforced by angels of Light. And you will know that it is a day and an hour when your life, consecrated by you, by God and holy angels and the Blessed Mother, can take a turn.
It will be the turn that will make all the difference, the turn whereby you make an about-face and, come what may, you reap what karma you have sown, you pick up the dropped stitches of your path and onward you march to the Great Central Sun.
Between now and your victory we have much work to do, for souls must be rescued and the people must have a vision! And the vision that they are given today by their leaders is not the vision of the All-Seeing Eye of God, is not the divine plan for the nations.
Therefore the blind lead the blind in the highest offices of the land. And where shall we go to find the heart that rings, that rings, that rings with the heart of the Lord Christ?
We shall go to the manger. We shall go to the Holy Child. We shall go to your very soul. And we shall plead before the Father - Mother God, and we shall call for those lifestreams who were aborted to be born and we shall call for others to be raised up and others still to be quickened and converted to the Light of their own God-free being.
Let them hear the Word of the Lord!
Let them hear that voice of the Son of God within and live henceforth according to the calling of God.
Let the people rise up! For in the hearts of the people there is knowledge, there is foreknowledge, there is the vision of the future that can become reality, the vision of the violet flame covering the land and the golden age of Aquarius. That is the first choice presented by Lord Zadkiel.3 It is yet the option!
But remember this, beloved. The Blessed Mother herself has told you, unless there be an ongoing conflagration of the violet flame by the dynamic decrees you offer daily for the transmutation of world karma, there will not be the setting aside of those prophecies that have gone forth from her heart through her many mouthpieces.4
Know that the violet flame is the key to avoiding the second choice for planet earth, which is not a golden age of Aquarius but a dark age where karma continues to fall, for the people have not received their divine intercessors.
Know, then, that this day the seraphim of God make a state-ment by their very presence in this city. Therefore, on behalf of all seraphim I say, let the Keepers of the Flame who claim this city and this state as their own rise to the opportunity of presenting to the world the opening of the doors of a center of Light that shall allow those from every walk of life to enter there, to worship God and to know him intimately in the Presence of the I AM THAT I AM.
Let the heart of America be strong because each chela of El Morya in this city and state is strong. Let the strength of a nation be in her heart! And therefore let the labors of your decrees be accomplished according to your initiative. And let your focus be on the records of crime and the history of criminal activity perpetrated against the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary in this city since its founding.5
Read this aspect of the history of Chicago and then call to the seraphim, the legions of Victory, angels of the violet flame and all hosts of the Seven Archangels! Yes, call to them, beloved hearts! Call to them for the clearing of the records of organized crime!6 Call to them for the multiplication of the action of transmutation! Call to them and make this city a city of violet flame, a city of light, a city where the I AM Presence may step through the veil and appear to the little children.
Yes, children see their angels. Let them see their Mighty I AM Presence! Let them hail that I AM Light! Let them know that their God is with them - yes, one and all.
Rise to this occasion, beloved ones, and let there be in America a return to freedom on the spiritual path, in the soul, in the heart, in the innermost recesses of being.
Blessed hearts, throw the TV sets out the window and protect your children from violence and violent thoughtforms. They must not take these in! How shall we, as seraphim of God, create in them the sense of holiness when they know naught else but violence and more violence?
This is a hideous monster in the land. It is the misuse of the technology given to the people by Saint Germain. You must stop it by your fiats! You must call to seraphim and all seven of the Mighty Archangels, who have promised to intercede for you in so many ways and especially on behalf of your children.
You have come, you have heard, you have assisted at our meetings. Now know the LORD and know the full power of God to turn all these things aside and never again say, "I can't help it."
You are not helpless - you can help what words come out of your mouth, what thoughts emit from your mind, what feelings dart forth from the body of your emotions.
No, don't say, "I can't help it!" You can help your actions. You can help your words. You can help your thoughts and feelings. And you can be centered in the kindness of the mighty Bodhisattva become Buddha, Lord Maitreya.
Yes, you can fulfill all things. The question is: Will you?
Blessed hearts, you have said yes many times. Know, then, that the fire of your own will must engage! engage! engage! - engage and lock in to the mighty spheres of light that make up the resplendent bodies of the seraphim, engage and lock in to that life-and-death struggle against your own dweller-on-the-threshold, and engage and lock in to the struggle against the denizens of hell who move among you.
Yes, you must lock in to what is really happening, what the rebel angels are doing all around you, and then go after them fearlessly with your calls, with your sword of blue flame, with your absolute confidence in Almighty God and the certain knowledge that the Messenger does reinforce you, that you can call day or night for help, that you can write for help, that you can depend upon the prayer force of this movement and of those who are gathered in the cities with you. You can depend on God if God can depend on you giving your decrees daily.
Have you learned this lesson well - that you must give light in the affirmation of the Word to create a chalice whereby God can and will work unfailingly through you, and whereby his angels will come instantaneously to your side in time of danger with greater speed than the speed of light?
Yes, beloved, have you learned the science of the spoken Word? ["Yes!"]
Then make it work and make it work for you, beloved! For you dare not step forth and enter the battle each day unless you have called forth the light of God. Call it forth! And call the seraphim until your homes are filled with angels, not merely as decorative motifs but as guardians of the sacred fire of your heart and home and family.
Beloved Alpha and Omega have sent many cosmic reinforcements for this your day, for this your year and the next and the next. Become a part of them! Band together with them, running as runners in a race. Establish a rolling momentum with them - yes, a rolling momentum of sacred fire in your chakras!
For you will meet your ultimate challenges in this decade, make no mistake about it. The challenges will come. They are here. They arrive every day. And you can defeat them! I tell you, you can defeat them.
I am in charge of the seraphim of the cosmos, and I stand before you offering you the armour of seraphim. If you will but call to me daily for that armour, it will be placed upon you by two aides who will come to you and dress you in that armour and infire you with the flame that is both cool and powerful so that you may go forth as pillars of fire amongst the seraphim, serving side by side with them. And by and by, you may almost pass for seraphim yourselves and you will appreciate that honor, I can assure you.
So, then, know that the seraphim have come, that there is karma on a world scale to be transmuted, and that this is no time to say to yourself, "My karma is not such a heavy load. I do not need the violet flame."
You need the violet flame so very much that I can hardly tell you how much you need it for the things that are coming upon the earth through the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.7 For they ride and they still ride and they have not yet delivered the full cup of the wrath of the indignation of the LORD God.8 And it does fall and the falling of that karma does accelerate.
And therefore be not angry. Be not put out! And do not rebel against your God, for your God has decreed that you must bear your karma. Therefore bear it gracefully, honorably, lovingly and in gratitude. Accept your daily lot only for a moment; then pass the violet flame and the white fire through it! Cast it into the flame and go forth free and recharged by the power of Helios and Vesta.
I bring you the message of the Father-Mother of the sun of your system, Helios and Vesta, that they desire you to give their mantras in the Ashram Ritual to the Great Central Sun.9 Yes, beloved, the sun of Helios and Vesta is the all-consuming power of God to consume the plagues that are coming upon the earth and the darkness that is covering the land. But the people are in such darkness that they do not even see the darkness!
We ask you to fight for the Light, to make your calls for the Light and thereby decelerate the accelerating karma in the earth. This you do by transmuting that karma through the action of the violet flame as soon as that karma descends.
Do you not feel the karmic weight when you do not call for that transmutation? Blessed hearts, tell me! Do you not feel the weight when you do not make the call? ["Yes!"]
And how many minutes does it take you to dispel that weight when you will to still your four lower bodies, when you will to be still, to not be agitated and to give your calls to the violet flame?
Well, I will tell you. Fifteen minutes is a minimum, and by the dispensation of Omri-Tas that fifteen is multiplied by the power of ten,10 counting for 150 minutes.
Therefore, keep on keeping on! Keep on with the violet flame! Keep on with Omri-Tas! And you may see that total darkness may never come to earth (which darkness is the karma of her people in this time) but perhaps only a twilight where there is yet the possibility of seeing and making one's way.
Yes, things could become darker, beloved. We have given the antidote. Many saints have walked in robes of violet flame in this century and contributed mightily to the staying action of the LORD God whereby greater calamities and burdens have not fallen upon America.
You take for granted the protection of this nation by the full presence of the Goddess of Liberty and the sponsoring Ascended Masters. Do you not realize that this protection has come to you by the grace of Saint Germain and that America is yet vulnerable and becomes increasingly more vulnerable day by day as abortion instead of adoption is accepted as a viable alternative, as street drugs are not challenged as they should be, as children are abused and as the rock stars vent their rebellion through their sounds that can only be the sounds of hell and not the sounds of heaven?
Yes, they are revving up their engines of anger. Beware of them, for that is what a rock concert is all about. It is the venting of anger by certain rebel angels who are not desirous of rising to the level of the angels of Light. And therefore because they themselves would not rise, they would pull down and they have pulled down, by the use of their amplification systems, the youth of several generations now to the lowest levels of a common denominator of darkness in the astral body and the astral plane.
Go not the way, then, of those who appear harmless and yet are the instruments of great harm. Whether they themselves are harmful or whether they be simply the instruments of harm, what is the difference? The harm is done and it is done to the little children. It is done to the womb of the mother, to the seed of the father, and to the light of the eye and the crown of the halo that belongs upon your heads.11
We are the holy ones of God! We are accompanied by legions of Victory and we come with such fierce determination, beloved hearts, as to emit a blinding light that intensifies in your auras. You are not ready to see this light, yet it is all around you now. And the light builds and it builds and it builds as a gentle snow of light descends upon this city and state. And that gentle snow of light from etheric octaves is a cleansing action.
We would begin somewhere. We begin in this city where the response has been a good response on the part of the few and the many who have desired to hear the Word of the Archangels, to bask in the Light and to trust in their own I AM Presence.
You who have such a sincere desire to make things right in the earth, I tell you, the Blessed Mother comforts you this day. She empowers you as you are able to receive her. And angels come and minister unto you that you might cut through - cut through, yes! - and step out of the old mold and into the new mold of your own Christhood.
It is an hour when many must turn and face the Sun. Do you know, beloved hearts, concerning the sands in the hourglass, that many have lived tens of thousands of years but there does come a day in the life of every individual when he must decide either to take the opportunity for eternal Life that is offered to him by God or to wait another round of untold cycles for that opportunity to come again?
Today many are being given the opportunity to accelerate the balancing of their karma and to make their ascension in this life. And if they do not take it, then they will have to face the wide circle of an unknown journey all over again.
In the equation of life and death and immortality, none is given to know in the outer mind, but some know through the soul and through soul-knowing, when it is the hour that they must choose to accelerate their spiritual path, when they can no longer postpone the initiations leading to the ascension. These days are arriving for millions in this decade and some will awaken to wisdom and the joy of the Lord and everlasting Life and some will awaken to contempt and more contempt of God and his emissaries,12 with weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth.13
So, when all awaken - whether to their ancient momentums of service to the Light or to their ancient momentums of service to the Darkness - that is when the battle rages, and it is always raging round the little children, round the souls who must be protected.
Our angels are straightforward, simple and direct. We know our job. We know our business and we perform it with no idle chatter but in the oneness of the Mind of God. We move as one. We are in a level beyond your own, and we make up another Mystical Body of Light: it is the Mystical Body of all seraphim of God worlds without end. Together as one we make up one magnificent chalice, and the amphitheater we have established here in Chicago on the etheric plane is but a small manifestation of the chalice that we are and that we offer unto the Light evolutions of many worlds.
There is simply no excuse - when you have the knowledge of the angels of God, of divine intercession and of how to make the call - for you not to take action daily on behalf of your family, your community and your planet.
How can you forsake so great a salvation? You simply cannot.
Well, I take my sword now, for I have come to direct its fire to your heart! So I come to give you the spiritual initiation of "the piercing of the heart." Yes, beloved, the piercing of the heart is the beginning of the path of your Christhood in earnest. A few drops of blood will flow as drops of light, and then you will also know and be one with your Lord.
Do not fear the crucifixion! Do not fear it. Many saints have passed through far greater pain. For they have endured the pain of the crucifixion for centuries as they have borne the cross of world karma.
Remember, your Lord was on the cross but a few hours on Good Friday.14 In the service of your Lord on the path of initiation many of you have remained on that cross on and off for centuries. We would take you down from the cross, for we are ministering seraphim. But first let us tell you one reason why you remain on the cross. It is because ultimately you resist the full initiation of the crucifixion.
In a sense it can be said that you are reluctant to drink the full cup Christ is commanding you to drink. ("Drink ye all of it."15) You are not willing to let die the old man with his deeds16 nor are you ready for your soul's full resurrection in Christ. ("Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone but if it die it bringeth forth much fruit."17) So you continue to walk the via dolorosa18 as the perpetual martyr, neither dying nor being born again. And unless you drink the cup of Christ's Blood and drink all of it and partake of his Body, you cannot be taken down from the cross and be given the initiation of the resurrection, henceforth to walk the earth as a resurrected son or daughter of God.
Your Lord did walk the earth in the spiral of resurrection's flame to the age of eighty-one. He did not pass from the screen of life at thirty-three but took up his abode in Kashmir and there had a great following of disciples. And the Light and the presence of the Lord Christ filled the temples, the hearts and the chakras of a people who were ready for his message.
Know, then, that when the crucifixion comes to you early in life and you pass all the tests involved in that initiation, you may have a full life ahead of you of walking in the garments of the resurrected Christ, this while you are yet in physical embodiment in preparation for your ascension. This truly is the Way, the Truth and the Life, following in the footsteps of your Lord!
Fear not, then. Death is the last enemy.19 Defeat it now! Get it out of the way! And accept the glory of your eternal Life. This is my message to you. Defeat Death and Hell today and get on with living the Life everlasting here on earth while you yet enjoy being in full health in physical embodiment yet caught up in resurrection's flame.20
Be the example! Let your Light shine! For when we see the resurrection beacon directed from your heart across the night sky, we match it with our beacon of the seraphim of God.
We are ever your companions and cohorts of Light, defenders, helpers, healers. Call to us now, while you think of it, that we might be authorized to accompany you from this day forward to the hour of earth's victory - and your own.
All seraphim of God bow to the Light within you.
May you bow to the Light of your Father-Mother God.
I AM Justinius, evermore the champion of the soul of Light!
- [56-second standing ovation]
This dictation by Holy Justinius with Seraphim and Angels of Victory attending was delivered by the Messenger of the Great White Brotherhood Elizabeth Clare Prophet on Sunday, February 28, 1993, during a weekend seminar, How to Contact Angels - Your Guides, Guardians and Friends Part 2, held at the Skokie North Shore Hilton, Chicago, Illinois. The dictation followed the Messenger's lecture "How to Work with the Angels for Success." [N.B. This dictation was edited for print by the Messenger under the direction of Holy Justinius.] To augment your study of this Pearl and to learn more about the seraphim, the Messenger recommends that you meditate on the Seraphic Meditations of Serapis Bey and Holy Justinius, published in the Dossier on the Ascension, pp. 115-40. Send for your own video- or audiocassette of the Messenger's memorable reading of the Seraphic Meditations, set to angelic music:

BY SUMMER SOLSTICE TO ASSESS SPIRITUAL COMMUNITIES given at the Royal Teton Ranch, Easter Sunday, April 11, 1993
Yes, we are coming with a delegation from Venus and a delegation from the God Star. These delegations, two in number, are coming to survey the spiritual communities that we have set up and that are on planet earth - from this, Maitreya's Mystery School, to those in the East to communities that you have not heard of and even to small communities within the churches where there are yet priests and nuns and those who are living together in the celebration of the Buddha, of the Christ, of Zarathustra, or perhaps they are Shaivites or perhaps they are devotees of the Divine Mother.
We shall assess all communities. We shall assess all lifestreams in those communities and we will determine - given their present levels of commitment and what they are doing regularly on a day-to-day basis for the keeping of the flame of the mystery schools on planet earth - just what we will be able to do for planet earth and what we will not be able to do.
Therefore the best move that each and every one of you here can make upon returning to your residences around the world is to get together with other Keepers of the Flame and communicants and to say to yourselves, "What is the level of commitment we can guarantee and we can maintain?"
Do not make it too high, do not make it too low. Set your house in order. Secure whatever place will be your semipermanent place, for there is nothing permanent in this world. But secure that place that is adequate and set up your reading room, your altar, your place where people can come and receive the Teachings.
Put your houses in order, beloved ones, for by this July conference, specifically by summer solstice, the delegations will arrive. We will take an accounting. We will see who and what there is that we may work with, and then we shall survey the planet and see who are the five million souls who are Lightbearers who could enter in if they were properly contacted. Therefore you ought to also consider how you will contact more Lightbearers to be a part of the path of the Teachings.
living in Boston, Massachusetts. Mark visited The Summit Lighthouse group there and I was in attendance. On April 22, 1961, I heard for the first time in my life an Archangel deliver a message to humanity through a living Messenger. Before Mark returned to Washington, he presented to me Leaves of Morya's Garden 1 and said, "Morya wants you to read this." And I did.
By meditating on the concepts in Leaves of Morya's Garden and continually referring back to them, I found the fulfillment of the ninety-first psalm: "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty ..."
The impartation of Morya's flame throughout Leaves of Morya's Garden is a matter of the Guru-chela relationship. The purpose of these books is to give you an intimate contact with Hierarchy, with the Masters, and to quicken within you the consciousness of Morya.
I would like to witness to the fact that it is the precious tie to El Morya's heart that gives me the strength not only to be a Messenger but also to face the challenges confronting our Church today. One of my most cherished memories is my lifetime as his daughter Meg when he was embodied as Sir Thomas More (1478-1535). I adored him then as I do today. I was in contact with him wherever he went, was tutored by him (as well as by tutors) in Latin, Greek, mathematics and the classics, and I observed his courage, his strength and his honor all the way through to his beheading on Tower Hill.
It was this close association with Thomas More that prepared me for the severe initiations I had to undergo in subsequent lifetimes. Had it not been for my having witnessed firsthand the martyrdom of Thomas More and his determined stand for the cause he believed in, I may not have passed my tests.
I commend you, then, to the heart of our beloved El Morya. I recommend that you set aside a quiet time each day to read and meditate on his Leaves and to immerse yourself in the flame of his dictations and teachings.
Leaves of Morya's Garden 1 and 2, published by the Agni Yoga Society, are available through Summit University Press.

Federal Agents Arrest Mohammed A. Salameh in Connection with the World Trade Center Bombing on March 4!
El Morya Cracks the Mafia in New York on April 4!
"Never, Never Doubt the Chief!"
After the spectacular results of our vigil to El Morya on February 4 and March 4, the New York Teaching Center was at a loss to say exactly what had been the results of our April 4 vigil.
It had been easy in February and in March. As previously witnessed in the Pearls of Wisdom (vol. 36, no. 5, pp. 69-71), New York experienced a "crime-free" day on February 4. For the first time in perhaps 25 years, no major crimes were committed in one 24-hour period. This miracle repeated itself a second day that month when again the police records showed nothing to report on February 28.
Then on March 4, coinciding with our El Morya vigil, a dramatic arrest was made in the World Trade Center bombing. The bombing had occurred on February 26, killing six and injuring over 1,000. Law enforcement agencies had settled in for the long haul of sifting through the tons of rubble, expecting to spend months before coming up with clues. But two days later, investigators at the blast sight miraculously recovered a fragment of metal with a vehicle identification number. They swiftly traced the number to a Ryder truck rental agency and, on March 4, arrested the first suspect, Mohammed A. Salameh, an Islamic fundamentalist. The case had been cracked. Law enforcement was amazed.
After the arrest, the acting Attorney General, Stuart M. Gerson, said in Washington: "It's a remarkable day in the history of the FBI." New York magazine (15 March 1993) reported: "Plenty of people involved in the case - cops, agents, and officials alike - were floored by the sudden arrests in what had promised to be a slow, grueling investigation." Police commissioner Raymond Kelly said: "This came from out of the blue."
At the New York Teaching Center, there was no doubt. This was Morya at work!
Our next El Morya vigil, April 4, was Palm Sunday, and the group was well prepared with a matrix for the night. We were ending the 48-hour vigil to Omri-Tas and were looking forward to another miracle, as Saint Germain had promised there would be more miracles. In his March 13 dictation at our new center, Saint Germain said:
El Morya has determined to show the world what he can do and what his chelas can do. He has done this. You have done this. You have seen and heard of the miracles. They shall continue as long as you as alchemists of the will of God produce a supersaturated solution of First Ray decrees each fourth of the month in New York and your town, planet earth!
The Masters and the Messenger had said that something had to be done about the Mafia and organized crime, for they were a burden on the people and the economy of New York City. So, for the April vigil, we wrote a simple call with little more than the names of New York's five crime families.
As the midnight hour approached at the Teaching Center, seven of us knelt at the altar and repeated El Morya's Bonding Prayer. One chela had prepared a special surprise. At the stroke of twelve the words, "Hail, O chelas of the will of God! I AM here and for a right good cause!" resounded over our sound system. (These were the opening words from El Morya's April 8, 1990 dictation, in which he gave us the Bonding Prayer.) It was a thrilling moment to feel El Morya's presence so tangibly at the beginning of our vigil. Then we joyously marched around the Chapel of the Threefold Flame of Liberty, singing "Onward, Christian Soldiers." The battle had begun.
We followed the hymn with the Gemini Clearance. In addition to giving our call on the Mafia, we gave invocations for the clearing of the discarnate entities in the entire tri-state area of New York, Connecticut and New Jersey. The Messenger had told us during her March visit that entities and the tyrant-ego dweller were hampering the economy of the city and preventing the Lightbearers from entering the Teachings. She also warned us to bind any potential backlash to our vigil well before the vigil and to also make calls for protection for days after.
With such an auspicious beginning to our vigil and the fervor that followed throughout the 24 hours, we felt the results would be phenomenal. We were somewhat disappointed when nothing specific that we could point to appeared in the news over the next seven days.
Where had we gone wrong? Were we out of alignment? Were we just interested in the dramatic?
Then the April 13 Daily News published a story on arrests of Mafia leaders. We thought, "We must tell Mother about this even though it is nothing to write home about." A diligent chela added the clipping to the articles she was collecting in her research on the Mafia. But it wasn't until we began putting together an "I AM the Witness" report that we realized that a major arrest had been made on Palm Sunday, April 4!
Carmine Sessa, Colombo consigliere and head of the Persico faction of the Brooklyn crime family, was arrested with two other mob members outside Saint Patrick's Cathedral. The Daily News reported: "As worshipers inside received their symbolic palm, Sessa, Persico and associate Frank (Frankie Blue Eyes) Sparaco were handcuffed and taken away." Within ten minutes Sessa was singing like a canary to the FBI.
On April 8 capo Joseph (JoJo) Russo and his cousin Anthony (Chuckie) Russo, capo Robert (Bobby Zam) Zambardi and soldier Joseph (Joe Monte) Monteleone, Sr., were arrested on charges that they conspired to murder Orena loyalists of the Colombo family.
On April 12 two reputed capos of the Luchese crime family - Salvatore (The Golfer) Avellino and Frank (Big Frank) Lastorina - were arrested on murder and racketeering charges. Assistant U.S. Attorney Gregory O'Connoll said: "With the filing of this indictment, virtually the entire hierarchy of the Luchese family has either been convicted, has cooperated or is awaiting trial on federal charges."
On April 19 James (Jimmy Brown) Failla of the Gambino family and five other men were indicted on murder and racketeering charges. Arraigned were Daniel Marino, Philip (Philly Dogs) Mazzara and Dominick (Fat Dom) Borghese. Agents attempted unsuccessfully to arrest Louis (Louie Fats) Astuto and Joseph (The German) Watts. Watts later turned himself in. According to government informer Salvatore (Sammy Bull) Gravano, "Failla controls the garbage industry through the Association of Trade Waste Removers of Greater New York, a trade organization he has run for the past 30 years." Gravano testified that "Failla ran the Manhattan and Queens garbage business and shared interests in the hauling business in Long Island with reputed Luchese capo Salvatore (The Golfer) Avellino."
On April 20 jailed mob boss John Gotti's close friend and "adopted son" was indicted on charges that he lied to a Brooklyn federal grand jury investigating the Gambino family. The April 21 Daily News reported: "The government claims that Lewis Kasman of Woodbury, L.I., helped create a sham company - Scorpio Marketing, a Garment Center business - as a way to create a somewhat legitimate income for Gotti." Also mentioned in the indictment was Gambino capo John (Jackie the Nose) D'Amico.
Victor Mirdita, Gambino family member, was arrested for the April 26 slaying of Genovese mobster Pasquale Parrello.
And the arrests are continuing.
The five families - Gambino, Colombo, Luchese, Genovese, Bonnano - have poisoned the fabric of this society, misusing the Third Eye of God to dominate the city. Their tentacles reach into nearly every aspect of the city's markets and industries. Their crimes divert the city's tax revenues away from the people. Their influence dominates the garment industry, construction, waste disposal and recycling, waterfront industries, food and alcohol distribution, hotel and restaurant industries, trucking and hauling, as well as gambling, pornography, drugs, loan sharking, insurance fraud and nightclubs, to name a few. Billions of dollars each year are siphoned off from the main economy by these evildoers.
According to an article in the March 1992 issue of Cosmopolitan, during initiation into the Mafia each new member holds a burning picture of a saint in his palms and swears to uphold the code of omerta (silence) - never to betray the secrets of the organization and its affairs. They vow: "As burns this saint, so will burn my soul," acknowledging that the penalty for violating the code is death and damnation.
We cannot begin to fathom the evil of the Mafia - these hardened criminals who have been committed to evil from the beginning. The Messenger told us in an exposé given February 26, 1983, that "the name of the Mafia is death." She explained that the word Mafia is only one letter different from Maria and that the Mafia is the perversion of the Mother. She said that members of the Mafia are the very ones (embodied again) whom Joshua and the officers and captains of the people faced. They are a breed of laggards whose allegiance is to the forces of Antichrist, and they have a murderous intent that would murder the Christ in the hearts of the people of God before he is born.
The Messenger said that when Mafia members pass on, we need to call for their binding and judgment and for the binding of their astral ka and dweller-on-the-threshold. They are just as dangerous on the astral plane as they are in physical embodiment, for they can perpetuate the momentum of murder and death as they prey on unsuspecting souls.
The Mafia is the epitome of anti-Life. They are Death incarnate. And they are Hell incarnate as they oppose the rise of the people in the free enterprise system. They form a conglomerate force opposing the ascension of every child of God. Their works are the antithesis of every noble deed done by the knights and ladies of the Cross.
And our King Arthur has struck a blow for the LORD, the Mighty I AM Presence, and for his chelas.
Police Lined the Streets of Ann Arbor
Awaiting Vandalism and Rioting That Never Happened
"We Give Credit to Omri-Tas and El Morya"
In the spirit of utter humility and with the greatest devotion, we come. The Detroit mandala has decided to spearhead the creation of the "wall of blue flame" in time zone 18 for our beloved Bapu, Morya. (See Pearls of Wisdom, vol. 36, no. 5, pp. 77-80.) My letter is the first of our detailed reports on our efforts. So much has begun to come together for us. Do let me begin at the beginning.
On Sunday, March 28, 1993, the Detroit mandala rallied in what will surely prove to be a turning point for our Teaching Center. For quite some time there had been a lack of enthusiasm among our members. This had caused inconsistent attendance at decree sessions, financial difficulties and diminishing involvement in outreach. Many services had only a few participants.
Our director recently compared our center to a garden. Each day we were watching it die just a little more, for no one was watering or caring for it. We wrote to active Keepers of the Flame in metropolitan Detroit requesting their presence at a meeting we called to discuss our predicament. We planned a pep rally - including streamers, balloons and refreshments - for the revitalization of our center.
Would you believe our God-victorious success? Every seat in the house was filled and a few people were actually left standing!
Everyone was moved by such a show of attendance, and the feeling of enthusiasm as well as urgency was heightened. Members were overflowing with creative energy. They set forth goals and concrete plans and made numerous suggestions. One idea was to create a treasure map for critical projects such as tackling urban violence and corruption in the inner city.
Since the rally, the Detroit Teaching Center has made many noteworthy efforts. Our monthly newsletter gives details regarding events at the Teaching Center and delineates the Masters' requests for our lives. Our classes and services for new members (Keepers on Lessons 1-7) provide an invaluable opportunity for those new to the Teachings to build a decree momentum and to gain insight from fellow members. One new member commented, "The classes help me become more comfortable with myself as one of Saint Germain's Keepers of the Flame. They give me guidance and support." Another said, "I have gained many new friends."
We also began a study group recently for inner child work and dealing with personal psychology. It has provided a platform for personal insight and healing to many.
These efforts have been gratifying. However, the most important task undertaken by the center has just begun. We have developed a two-fold plan: (1) to earn the dispensation of beloved El Morya's presence in our city and (2) to bring you, Mother, to our city.
To spark commitment, we asked our members to complete pledges for the 24-hour El Morya vigil. We organized the vigil with great zeal, and sign-up sheets were quickly filled. Our April 4 El Morya vigil began at midnight April 3, on the heels of a rousing Omri-Tas' Day service. Four members maintained the momentum until 7:00 a.m. (Two additional members remained on call.) The four gave decrees and songs to Archangel Michael, El Morya and Mother Mary, intermingled with violet flame calls. This we did in order to receive the maximum benefit of the overlap with the 48-hour Omri-Tas vigil.
At 7:00 a.m. replacements arrived. They gave Ashram Ritual 3 - Sacred Ritual for Attunement with God's Holy Will - and Archangel Michael's Rosary. Violet flame calls continued. In their homes, cars and wherever they found the opportunity, Keepers added to the momentum being maintained at the Teaching Center. One hundred eighty-five hours were completed for the vigil!
We saw blessings immediately! As a general rule, violence of some sort usually occurs after sports events involving the University of Michigan. On April 3, the university's basketball team, the Wolverines, won a key game and police expected the usual violence. The April 4 Detroit News reported:
In Ann Arbor, the overtime win released a torrent of humanity onto South University Avenue. About 8,000 fans spilled out of bars and Crisler Arena, where a crowd had watched the Wolverines beat Kentucky on huge TV screens, police said. ...
Earlier, with a second left in the overtime period of the game, a bar waitress on South University quickly collected all the glasses, salt shakers and knives from the table, and police in full riot gear moved into position on the street.
They were awaiting vandalism and rioting that never happened. Only four arrests were made in a crowd of 8,000 to 12,000 fans. We give credit to Omri-Tas and El Morya for their mighty Electronic Presence. According to the Detroit News, "Exultant fans came from every direction, singing The Victors and chanting `Let's go Blue!' ...`There's nobody fighting,' said Jeff Sutliff, an Owosso sophomore. `We just all have the pride and the spirit of the University of Michigan."'
However, on April 5, after the Wolverines lost the NCAA basketball championship game, violence did break out and people were seriously injured. Fist fights, bottle throwing and two stabbings were reported. We realize that we need more chelas taking part in the El Morya vigil as well as the Omri-Tas vigil in order to hold the balance in America's solar plexus chakra - Detroit. But even a small victory spurs our faith that we can and will have future victories.
After the El Morya vigil on April 4, we were inspired to join forces with the other Teaching Centers and Study Groups in time zone 18. We are contacting all groups in zone 18 to assist us in forming a "wall of blue flame." We propose to publish a monthly newsletter called The El Morya Report. This newsletter will contain articles outlining zone 18's experiences with the El Morya vigil and will be sent to each group in the zone.
By God's grace, may our contribution to the El Morya vigil serve to further the Master's cause.
Eternally dedicated to the Light,
