Introduction... The Coming Age of Aquarius and The Reappearance of The Christ
The many headed hydra called the New Age has, over the last couple of decades, become even more sinister with every passing year. Most New Agers share a common vision ... the present phase of human existence is one of transition from the Piscean Age of rationality, to the Aquarian Age of spirituality, and harmony of all things. [See New Age Overview]
That the New Age is within our reach may not, in itself, sound too bad.
However, what is particularly alarming is that while many New Agers may merely subscribe to some elements of New Age philosophies, A large branch of the New Age movement believes that the utopian age will only come about under the leadership and guidance of a world leader/teacher. They contend that Buddha, Muhammad, Confucius, Jesus, and many others were "christs", but one greater than all of them... a "World Teacher" will soon come to usher in the New Age.
They believe, and teach, that the world has to be prepared for this one-world leader who is called by various names including The Christ, Sanat Kumara or Maitreya, and who will, in human form, come as a saviour to save the world from sliding into chaos, teaching us to live at peace and unity with each other. He will begin preparing humanity for the advent of the Age of Aquarius... a glorious New Age millennium. Many believe that this leader, possibly a man who has achieved godhood, will possess unparalleled wisdom and knowledge and perhaps psychic abilities to boot. As said by Warren Smith
According to the "new gospel, "Christ is not a person. It is an office. The "new gospel" teaches that while Jesus of Nazareth occupied the office during His active ministry, He no longer holds that same position. Today the office of "Christ" is occupied by someone else. And this "someone else" is presently in the process of establishing contact with humanity. This "Christ" intimates that he is already in the world awaiting mankind's call.
Concerned that humanity is in peril and facing possible extinction, this "Christ" explains that his "new gospel" will unify the world's major religions and bring peace to the world [Warren Smith. Reinventing Jesus Christ: The New Gospel. Preface. Pg 9]
In other words, one the main goals of the New Age movement has become a concerted effort to facilitate what is called "The Reappearance of The Christ". With this ultimate goal in mind, an incredibly huge network of groups, trusts, foundations, clubs, religious groups etc. have become focused on making changes not only at an individual, but global level.
Not only do the following organizations present what they call "ageless wisdom" teachings, but they are doing everything they can to create the conditions necessary for the Reappearance of The Christ. Heralded as the 'salvation of earth' or the 'new earth', this movement has gathered immense size and power along the way, and is poised to come to fruition.

Conclusion
Introduction To The Seminal Organizations
In recent years there has been an explosion of individuals and organizations who base their philosophy, aims, and teachings.. in fact their very raison d'être on the teachings of three seminal organizations.
Helena Blavatsky and Theosophy: The word Theosophy is derived from the Greek Theos (god) and Sophia (wisdom) which can be translated as Divine Wisdom, or the recently popular term... Ageless Wisdom. Theosophy holds that all religions are attempts by the "Spiritual Hierarchy" to help humanity in evolving to greater perfection however, each religion has but a portion of the truth.
The masters of Theosophy, who although not human, often seem to be 'headquartered" in Tibet (See Who Are The Ascended Masters below), "preserve and extend this ancient wisdom", [1] and periodically, go into the world (or send a messenger) to "help spread this teaching to all of humanity" [1]. They say that, in the 19th century, after a hundred years of searching, they found Helena Blavatsky, who met the "master" in Hyde Park in London when she was 20. She managed to enter Tibet and was trained by said masters for a period of about two years (from 1868 to 1870). She claimed to have written Isis Unveiled and her three-volume magnum opus The Secret Doctrine under the direction of the Masters of Wisdom, Tibetan holy men who communicated telepathically with her in England from the Himalayas
As her site says "Her master work is the Secret Doctrine, written in 1888 - a book that will remain seminal for centuries. Her first book-length work, Isis Unveiled, shook the rafters of science and religion, and the world hasn't been the same since. Many people reading this will hold views that were first planted in the West by Blavatsky." [1] [Read More]
Alice Bailey and Djwhal Khul: Alice Bailey's story is similar. Approached, as a fifteen year old, by a mysterious stranger in a turban, she proceeded to co-operate with this entity who called himself Kuthumi, and told her that he had previously been in contact with Helen Blavatsky. Alice Bailey moved to the US and got involved with Theosophy (which she later parted ways from), then encountered Djwhal Khul, also called The Tibetan who was another non-human "master". Over the next 30 years Djwhal Khul dictated nineteen books to Bailey, and she wrote five of her own.
Bailey started the Lucifer publishing company to publish her books, eventually changing the name of the company to Lucis Trust, which was the first step in their road to becoming a force to be reckoned with in the international community. Lucis Trust a powerful institution that enjoys "consultative status" with the United Nations, also provides worldwide financial support for the Arcane School, Triangles, World Goodwill, Lucis Publishing, Lucis Productions, Lucis Trust Libraries, the New Group of World Servers etc. most of which organizations were formed so that Djwhal Khul could find a nucleus of people through whom he could work. I have also read that they maintain the UN meditation room, but have been unable to confirm this. [ More About Alice Bailey and Djwhal Khul]
The Agni Yoga Society: (Agni means "fire" in Sanskrit, while the fire god Agni is a major deity in the Vedic pantheon). The Agni Yoga Society, located on West 107th Street in New York, is a nonprofit educational institution, founded in 1920 by the artist Nicholas Roerich and his wife Helena. It is a spiritual teaching, which the followers of Agni Yoga believe was given to the Roerich family and their associates by the Master Morya...Helen Blavatsky's guru. Through the early 1920s Helena Roerich received the messages which became her first two book, Leaves Of Morya's Garden I and II. Not only did Helena Roerich go on to channel other works from Morya, including New Era Community in 1926; Infinity in 1930; Hierarchy in 1931, and The Fiery World in 1933-34, but she also translated Blavatsky's The Secret Doctrine into Russian
The teachings of the Agni Yoga Society are also referred to as the Teaching of Living Ethics, the Teaching of Life, the Teaching of Light, or simply as "the Teaching". In their own words, the society is described as a "... synthesis of ancient Eastern beliefs and modern Western thought and a bridge between the spiritual and the scientific. The society teaches that "the evolution of the planetary consciousness is a pressing necessity and that, through individual striving, it is an attainable aspiration for mankind" [02] and that "spiritual liberation depends on cultivating awareness of unity, which is possible only with the guidance and protection of the compassionate enlightened beings who belong to the Brotherhood, the Hierarchy of Light". [2b]
Two Predominant Themes
Theme 1... The Reappearance of The Christ And "The Masters"
The foundation of organizations across the globe is largely based on the teachings of these three highly influential organizations. In a nutshell, they believe and teach that a day is not far off when a great world teacher, accompanied by his cronies (the Ascended Masters, the Brotherhood, the Masters of the Wisdom, the Hierarchy of Light etc.) will emerge on the world's stage and bring about a new era of peace and prosperity.
This is clearly expressed by The Seven Ray Institute and The University of the Seven Rays, who say their their organizations "serve as vehicles for the presentation of the Ageless Wisdom teachings at this time of preparation for the return of the World Teacher". [03]. Partially quoting Alice Bailey's book The Reappearance of the Christ (Lucis Publishing Company, 1948, p. 8) Their site says
Throughout the ages, especially during times of difficulty, people have looked with a sense of expectancy and hope for someone greater than themselves to bring solace to their lives. Someone is expected and anticipated by the masses of people - a great teacher, a savior--someone who can bring an end to the suffering and who can restore a sense of order and balance in the world. Such teachers have ever come in times of difficulty and crisis, when the problems confronting us seemed beyond our capacity to adequately resolve and today will be no different. They have been defined as '"extraordinary men Who from time to time appear to change the face of the world and inaugurate a new era in the destinies of humanity." 1 They come to bring to an end the old and the undesirable ways of living and being and to make way for the new forms that will more adequately house the incoming light. They come in times of excess and apparent darkness--when humanity has lost its way. And for this very reason, if for no other, such a Teacher may be looked for at this time. [04]
According to the Aquarian Age Community, a non-profit, accredited non-governmental organization (NGO) in association with the United Nation's Department of Public Information, this World Teacher is
"... that Great Being Whom the Christian calls the Christ; He is known also in the Orient as the Bodhisattva, and as the Lord Maitreya, and is the One looked for by the devout Mohammedan, under the name of the Iman Madhi. [05]
Implementing The Plan
However, not only do these organizations present what they call "ageless wisdom" teachings, but they are doing everything they can to creating the conditions necessary for the Reappearance of The Christ.
The Aquarian Age Community is very clear that their organization [Emphasis Added]
"Cooperates and collaborates with the worldwide community that is actively preparing the way for the reappearance of the World Teacher — the Christed (Anointed) One, the true Aquarian. [06l]
But how will man aid spiritual beings return to earth? There are, apparently, two effective ways to "materialize" the Hierarchy's plan for humanity ...
1) Raising Global Consciousness by means of Occult Meditation.
For reasons little understood.. when the consciousness (or spirituality) of humanity has been raised enough, The Plan can be put into effect. Who knows how many hundreds of thousands of people have "awakened", and who knows how many, or how few, more it will take in order to have altered the energy of the earth enough to bring about the "Reappearance of the Christ".
There are those that believe that the self indulgent narcissism of the New Age isn't transforming anything, but simply causes people to feel better about themselves in the world just as it is. I beg to differ. In our typically Western way, we are rushing in where angels fear to tread. With little regard to the deeper issues behind them, terms and practices that were previously both obscure and esoteric now roll off people's tongues, and find a prominent place in people's daily routines. IIn other words, whether we are aware of it or not, all our efforts to awaken our own spirituality are contributing to the success of this enormous plan.
One of these days the doors will be open wide enough for evil to cross the threshold, and the "masters" to walk the earth again.
2) the reciting of The Great Invocation given Alice Bailey by her demonic pal Djwhal Khul. The term invocation means an appeal to a higher power for assistance, and The Great Invocation has been described as a call for "the Christ to return to Earth". More about The Great Invocation
But this is not all. They also believe ...
The Days of "Fanatics" Are Numbered
These groups also believe "no religion has the last and final work concerning the relation of God and man." and
It is necessary for adherents of the world's faiths to understand that each great world religion comes, ultimately, from One Source which The Secret Doctrine reveals.... Introducing and explaining these few points to the unenlightened millions is a huge work and it will be resisted strenuously by the fanatical adherents of various faiths - and all faiths have their fanatics! But the day of the fanatics has its term and is destined to fade away.... The Great Lord Maitreya, the Christ, the Head of the Spiritual Hierarchy is "on His way". His intention is to reappear when a measure of economic sharing prevails, when a measure of peace has been restored, and when the "Church cleans house" ... [07]
Gordon Davidson and Corinne McLaughlin of The Center for Visionary Leadership say that "war is only one form of change, and often the least effective", but add there is yet ... [Emphasis Added]
"... a role for the right use of destruction when it is used against rigid and crystallized forms of thought and cultural patterns that prevent Life from evolving to it's next step" [08]
And
If groups are aligned with the Higher Will when this energy is released through them, they will expand and become more creative, alive, powerful. If they are out of alignment, they will degenerate emotionally, physically and mentally. This process has already begun, as we can see through the downfall of groups that are opposing evolution and synthesis, and will only accelerate in the years ahead. [09]
Who is This World Teacher (The Christ), And Who Are The Hierarchy/Ascended Masters?
The "Christ"
Perhaps the term "world teacher" becomes a little more clear if Christians would wake up and realize that this 'Christ' (messiah) has nothing to do with Jesus Christ of the Bible, which leaves us with but one other choice... the anti-christ that the Scriptures warned us about.
"Hierarchy"?
The World Service Intergroup defines what is meant by the "Hierarchy".
Hierarchy is a term used here to refer to those spiritual Masters of all traditions who have evolved through human experience to embody greater light, love-wisdom and spiritual power through ceaseless service to humanity and the Divine Plan. They have worked throughout the ages to further human evolution, and They are now in process of "externalizing" or becoming known in public life. [10]
Ascended Masters?
The Church Universal and Triumphant.... another of the organizations that disseminates the teachings of the Ascended Masters and endeavors to facilitate their return to earth, tries to answer the question of who they are on one of their web sites...
The Ascended Masters are enlightened spiritual beings who once lived on earth, fulfilled their reason for being and have ascended and reunited with God in the ritual of the ascension. They are referred to in the Book of Revelation as the saints robed in white who come as a "great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues." The ascended masters are true teachers of mankind. They direct the spiritual evolution of all devotees of God and guide them back to their Source. [11]
Let us look at the verse in the book of Revelation which is being referred to above. It says...
After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could count, from every nation and all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, and palm branches were in their hands [Revelation 7:9 NASB]
It is possible to make the Bible say anything you want it to say, simply by plucking verses from their context. I suppose that since the so called church excels at this, one cannot blame the non believer for doing the very same thing. However, anyone who bothers to read the rest of the chapter, will realize that the identity of the people in white robes is clearly set forth. The apostle John (whose vision is being recorded here) was asked by one of the 24 elders who the people in the white robes were. When he, in essence said he did not know, the elder told him... [Emphasis Added]
"....These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. "For this reason, they are before the throne of God; and they serve Him day and night in His temple; and He who sits on the throne will spread His tabernacle over them. "They will hunger no longer, nor thirst anymore; nor will the sun beat down on them, nor any heat; for the Lamb in the center of the throne will be their shepherd, and will guide them to springs of the water of life; and God will wipe every tear from their eyes." [Revelation 7:14-17 NASB]
In other words these were the martyrs from the tribulation period, many, if not most, of whom will be killed by the anti-christ and his minions from hell... Ironically, the very same beings whose return to earth is being facilitated by these groups. There is not a single word about these white robed people being "masters" of anything. Much to the contrary, the chapter is very clear that they serve God day and night and He, in turn, protects and looks after them.
No "wisdom teachers" directing anyone’s "spiritual evolution" in this group.
All This was Foretold By The Bible
And how, if at all, does this anticipation of a "world teacher" tie in with what the Bible says will transpire. Unfortunately it couldn't dovetail any more neatly. In her book The Reappearance of the Christ, Alice Bailey said "in the immediate future", there would be a
"return to the situation which existed in Atlantean days," when the "Masters will walk openly among men", and "the Members of the spiritual Hierarchy were openly guiding and directing the affairs of humanity," [12]
Bailey believed that the civilization of Atlanta was destroyed by the great Flood, therefore when she talk about the "situation which existed in Atlantean days", she is obviously referring to the days immediately preceding the Great Flood. Albeit with a different slant, Alice Bailey's demonic sources are only reiterating what the Scriptures said thousands of years ago... In this regard, Jesus' words are hugely important... since He linked two epochs together and said that one is the parallel of the other.
"As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be in the days of the coming of the Son of Man," [Luke 17:26-30. Also See Matthew 24:37-39] [For Details See As It Was In The Days of Noah
Theme 2... Peace and Safety
Has anyone noticed how, in the last couple of decades at the most, the sheer number of people and organizations that have 'peace' in a pivotal role in their mission statement has rapidly escalated. The terminology varies from individual to individual, organization to organization. Harmony, acceptance, reconciliatory dialogue, conflict resolution, right human relations, cultural understanding/awareness, interfaith dialogue/cooperation, global interdependence, shared or common vision, inter-connectedness, global partnership, solidarity, kinship, unity are some of the phrases commonly heard. However, while the vocabulary may differ, the central concept stays the same. Here are a very few examples drawn from a very vast pool... [All Emphasis Added]
In 1981 the United Nations General Assembly passed resolution 36/67 declaring an International Day of Peace. In 2001, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a new resolution (55/282) declaring 21st September of each year as the International Day of Peace, inviting "all Member States, organizations of the United Nations system, and non-governmental organizations and individuals to commemorate, in an appropriate manner, the International Day of Peace, including through education and public awareness". [13]
The annual Prayer Vigil for the Earth (now in its 20th year) takes place next to the Washington Monument every fall, when "people of diverse faiths, cultures, ethnic backgrounds and all ages gather together to pray for harmony with the Earth and each other... The Prayer Vigil, a 100 percent volunteer event, continues to expand each year by adding more simultaneous celebrations at various sites in the United States and throughout the world" [14]. These prayer vigils are held in numerous locations, from Sedona Arizona (of course) to Ankara, Turkey. [15]
"The heart and soul of the Rainbow Ark Foundation is to help create a culture of peace through the fundamental teaching of Sacred Ecology" [16]
The organization, We, the World says they "are working to awaken a spirit of caring and involvement in the public so that millions of people begin to see themselves as part of one global interdependent community – and actively take part in creating a world that works for all!" [17]
Now do not get me wrong here. It would take someone with a few loose screws to not want peace. Peace keepers, in one form or another, have always existed and bless them... the world would have been a far worse place without their efforts.
The problem here is NOT the motives of these organizations, but their methods.
They seek peace by invoking the aid of evil, looking to a messiah (world teacher) to teach them how to live and to bring harmony to the planet. They seek peace but completely turn their backs on the God of the universe. They choose to rely on the words of unidentified apparitions and subjective feelings and experiences, totally ignoring the fact that God Himself has promised us everlasting peace in His kingdom... (and no, this kingdom, or heaven, will not be some ethereal realm 'out there', but a very real and tangible place... Right here. See What and Where is Heaven]. They seek peace by shaking hands with the devil ... students, teachers and practitioners of the so called 'Ageless Wisdom' abound. They seek peace by misrepresenting the words of Scripture. [See For example The PATH Foundation, (below)]
The Chilling Facts
These people and organizations are doing everything they can to render to these minions of hell "intelligent assistance which will make their plans for humanity materialize". All three founders were well tutored by ectoplasmic apparitions from the nether regions, supposedly the ascended masters Kuthumi, Djwhal Khul and Morya, who, in at least two of the cases, simply showed up and were unquestioningly accepted .
If at this point you are getting the impression that these beliefs are limited to a few ‘kooks' spread across the globe, you would not be more wrong. For example, Steve Rother, president of Lightworkers, who "channels the loving entities simply known as the Group" has presented the material from the group five times at the United Nations.
The Group first came to Steve Rother in 1996 and since then has given information for a evolving planet that has filled several books now translated into 18 languages. The monthly Beacons of Light - Reminders from Home are translated into 24 languages each month and have been presented at the United Nations five times on two continents. [18]
However, what is really alarming is the sheer number of organizations working towards the same goals, and the fact that few, if any, of of these organizations seem to work in isolation, but are closely interconnected with many of the others. While I am not sure that we have done more than skim the surface, this page should suffice to give the reader an inkling of the magnitude of the great darkness that is sweeping the world.
I am sure you are familiar with the old saying, "The road to hell is paved with good intentions". Thanks, in no small part, to the following institutions, that road is not only paved, but is being turned into a multiple lane superhighway.

Arcana Workshops Culver City, CA
Arcana Workshops is one of the organizations listed on the member page of the "World Service Intergroup". It says they are... [Emphasis Added]
a group of disciples who are dedicated to the work of aiding the externalization of the Hierarchy and the reappearance of the Christ.... The purpose of Arcana Workshops is to provide the training, atmosphere, companionship and service opportunities necessary to link the aspiration and spiritual will of Humanity with Hierarchal intent. [19]
Arcana Workshops own site says their purpose is to
"..provide the training, atmosphere, companionship and service opportunities necessary to link human aspiration with the overshadowing spiritual realities" [20]
On their "About Arcana" page, this organization invites people to... [Emphasis Added]
"study with others the Ageless Wisdom as presented by the teachings of Djwhal Khul in the books of Alice A. Bailey and in the books published by the Agni Yoga Society in New York". [21]
On the Thursday and Sunday Meditations Overview page, which they say were "were designed by the Tibetan for all who are willing to participate in the indicated service", they end a message to the student with the words [Emphasis Added]
"Dedication to Hierarchical (soul) intention and definite effort to channel spiritual energy through group meditation is part of our work in helping to prepare the way for the Coming One". [22]
Celebrating the Three Linked Meditation Festivals of Spring, they say [Emphasis Added]
"Please join us in meditation and celebration of the Three Meditation Festivals of Spring, the "spiritual high points of the year." We welcome both beginning and experienced meditators to participate in establishing a conscious alignment with the Spiritual Hierarchy for the unfoldment of the Divine Plan on Earth". [23]
Finally, on their The New Millennium Meditation Project page [24], the Arcana site says they formed a group of meditators who are participating in a world wide meditation effort to "start each year by bringing a wave of meditatively generated love, light and will into the consciousness of Humanity". They asked that "participants be in meditation at the time the year changes" and stated that the "seed thought" that they would be using is the one they started with in 1995... "Let Light and Love and Power restore the Plan on Earth. Let Thy Will be done in the new millennium."
The first part of this passage comes from The Great Invocation given Alice Bailey by 'the Tibetan’ which has, for decades, been printed on millions of bookmarks and in the front of every Alice Bailey book published by Lucis Trust. [More about The Great Invocation]
(The) Aquarian Age Community
Is listed under the Lucis Trust's "service activities" [25] says they are "inspired by the teachings as set forth in the books of Helena Blavatsky, Alice Bailey and the Agni Yoga Society". On the one hand AAC site includes "a newsletter on United Nations topics", while on the other hand, the mission page on the Aquarian Age website makes these startling statements.. [Emphasis Added]
The Aquarian Age Community Cooperates and collaborates with the world wide community that is actively preparing the way for the reappearance of the World Teacher - the Christed (Anointed) One, the true Aquarian."
"The Aquarian Age Community us dedicated in loving service to humanity, the planet and the "Great Thinker." It is inspired by the teachings of Master Koot Hoomi (Kuthumi), Master Morya and Master Djwal Khul as there are set forth in the books of Helena Blavatsky, Alice Bailey and the Agni Yoga Society. There teachings seek to inspire and prepare human consciousness for the great opportunities and possibilities of the 21st century." [26]
However what is really disturbing is that the AAC is promoting the reappearance of this world leader from within the UN. A page [http://www.aquaac.org/un/medmtgs.html] on meditation on the Aquarian Age Community site opens with these words "The Spiritual Work of the United Nations and the Liberation of Humanity". This page posts the meditation schedule for 2009, which will take place in the United Nations Meditation Room and is open to the public. These monthly meditations days seem to have always fallen on, or a day or two before, the Full Moon phases which, as Alice Bailey taught, are especially fruitful times for spiritual work because an abundance of spiritual energy is available [27].
So, to sum up.... on the days of the full moon, people are meditating and reciting the Great Invocation given them by a non-human. This takes place in the UN meditation room, under the wing of the AAC, an organization that is actively preparing the way for the reappearance of the World Teacher. [More About The Aquarian Age Community and The United Nations]
Auckland Goodwill Unit of Service in New Zealand
Auckland Goodwill co-operates with World Goodwill, a movement established in 1932, to establish Right Human Relations and to solve humanity's problems through the constructive power of goodwill. The intention of the site is to "seek out the new group of world servers and strengthen their hands". [28]
On their Aims & Objectives page Auckland Goodwill says they exist [Emphasis Added]
"To co-operate in the work of preparation for the Reappearance of the Christ through the establishing of goodwill as the keynote of the new civilisation" [29]
And "That through meditation, prayer, right thought, speech and action, humanity evolves and progresses toward the establishment of the Kingdom of God on Earth. [30]
Their activities page says they, among other things, conduct Monthly Festival Meditation meetings, timed by the full moon, and promote...
Triangles - a triangle is formed by three people who unite in thought each day using the Great Invocation to channel light, love and the will-to-good through the growing planetary network of Triangles into mankind.
World Invocation Day - a day on which the Great Invocation is sounded by groups and individuals around the world. This united human invocation for love, light and spiritual direction has been observed annually since 1952. It is set by the full moon in June. [31]
They "primarily" use Alice Bailey's material. I cannot reiterate any more strongly... Djwhal Khul, also called The Tibetan, who dictated nineteen books to Alice Bailey, is NOT human
BoRupp Productions
Their 'about us' page says borupp "is an educational organism dedicated to the establishment of right human relations'. [32]
Their page on Ageless Wisdom is excerpted from A Treatise on White Magic by Alice Bailey, and published by the Lucis Trust. As the book description on Amazon says, it is "written in collarboration with a Master of the Wisdom" (misspelling in original). [33]
On their Auras page, they paraphrase comments by "The Master Morya" made in the book Leaves of Morya's Garden, Vol. II by the Agni Yoga Society, while their page on meditation states that
"right use of meditation to serve in the upliftment and transformation of humanity and the world in which we live. Esoteric or occult meditation is a method of cooperating with the process of planetary evolution and redemption." [34].
(The) Center for Visionary Leadership:
with offices in San Rafael, CA and Charlotte, NC, was co-founded by Gordon Davidson and Corinne McLaughlin.
 The member ship page of the "World Service Intergroup" says they offer... [Emphasis Added]
courses in leadership development and in spiritual development based on the Ageless Wisdom of East and West, especially the work of Alice Bailey, Theosophy and Agni Yoga;
a series of courses on The Science of the Soul, which includes the esoteric constitution of the human being, spiritual discipleship, soul/personality integration, and the Divine Plan; with an advanced course on Building the Antahkarana and group work; [19]
Note: According to the web site of the Humanity Healing Network, Antahkarana is a Sanskrit word for "Rainbow Bridge", and is ”a connection between our intelligent mind and the higher levels of perception and consciousness". [35]
That The Center for Visionary Leadership is not some hole in the wall organization is shown by the fact that Corinne McLaughlin coordinated a national task force for President Clinton's Council on Sustainable Development, while Gordon was formerly the Executive Director of the Social Investment Forum, and of The Center for Environmentally Responsible Economies. They both have served on the adjunct faculty of The American University and the University of Massachusetts, and are Fellows of The World Business Academy.
Additionally, The International Advisory Board of The Center for Visionary Leadership boasts Dr. Robert Muller (former Assistant Secretary General of the United Nations and Chancellor-Emeritus of the UN University for Peace) and Hon. Claudine Schneider, former Congresswoman from Rhode Island, while Avon Mattison, founder of Pathways To Peace, is on the Board of Directors. [36]
Corinne McLaughlin and Gordon Davidson also co-founded Sirius, an ecological village and spiritual community in Massachusetts, are also both Fellows of The Findhorn Foundation, and co-authors of The Practical Visionary, Spiritual Politics (Foreword by the Dalai Lama), and Builders of the Dawn. Scroll Down For More about the Findhorn Foundation
Gordon and the Reappearance of the Christ
According to the web site of the Seven Ray Institute, Gordon formerly worked at the Lucis Trust in New York and serves on the board of Meditation Mount in California. it is no wonder then that he was one of the presenters at the 20th Annual International Conference of the Seven Ray Institute [See Below], entitled "The Aquarian Christ: Living in the Radiant Heart of the "Coming One", which was held in Mesa Arizona in 2006. He was listed as a presenter of the topic "Being the Open Door for the Reappearance of the Christ", about which the site says
"Disciples and groups in all traditions have the opportunity today, through a transfiguration of consciousness and being, to remove the inner barriers and open the gates to the energies and states of consciousness which must be present and active within humanity for the Christ to return." [37]
Ageless Wisdom
While the home page of The Center for Visionary Leadership, says their goal is "to help people develop the inner, spiritual resources to be effective leaders and respond creatively to change", it also says their approach is based on... "the Ageless Wisdom, the golden thread that connects the deeper, inner teachings of the world's spiritual traditions". [38] Spiritual Politics, the book McLaughlin and Davidson co-authored, is actually dedicated to Djwhal Khul and Maitreya...
To M and DK
and to all the Warriors of the Spirit,
that they may awaken to the fire in their hearts
and hear the inner anthem calling them
to the Great Work.
Not only is the foreword is by The Dalai Lama, but both Neale Donald Walsch, author of Conversations with God, and Marianne Williamson, author of A Return To Love have paid glowing tributes to it on the front and back covers respectively. Yet McLaughlin and Davidson are very clear that Spiritual Politics is based on the hidden, "Ageless Wisdom" of the occult. [More About A Return To Love]
But what is this Ageless Wisdom? In their own words ... [All Emphasis Added]
The Ageless Wisdom is said to have existed on this planet for millions of years. It has been described as the "golden thread" that connects the esoteric or hidden teachings that underlie the ancient Chaldean, Egyptian, Hebrew, Hindu, Greek, Chinese, Buddhist, Christian, and Islamic traditions - as well as some indigenous teachings the world over. Although the outer forms and popular teachings of the many religious perspectives on this planet may appear, on the surface, to be in conflict with one another, when the symbols, mysteries, and inner teachings of their various founders and prophets are studied in depth, a remarkable harmony and correlation can be seen. All the great teachers of the major religions are thus transmitters of the same fundamental truths under the veil of local symbols, appropriately presented to suit the time and culture. [39]
Furthermore, while McLaughlin and Davidson say that "war is only one form of change, and often the least effective", they add there is yet...
"... a role for the right use of destruction when it is used against rigid and crystallized forms of thought and cultural patterns that prevent Life from evolving to it's next step" [40]
And
"the next release of Shamballa energy into human consciousness is planned for the year 2000, which will bring another cycle of major upheaval and change as we move into the next millennium. This high voltage energy of synthesis will test every individual and institution to determine of they are aligned with the Higher Will. The Shamballa energy can most safely be handled by groups of people dedicated to the service and uplifting of humanity. If groups are aligned with the Higher Will when this energy is released through them, they will expand and become more creative, alive, powerful. If they are out of alignment, they will degenerate emotionally, physically and mentally. This process has already begun, as we can see through the downfall of groups that are opposing evolution and synthesis, and will only accelerate in the years ahead. [41]
In other words... They believe that the Shambhala energy will get Christian fundamentalists out of the way...
To which I only have one thing to say.. Good luck with that!
[The] Church Universal and Triumphant
is an international New Age religious organization founded in 1975 by Elizabeth Clare Prophet. One of their several websites answers the question of what is Church Universal and Triumphant is. In their words [Emphasis Added]
Church Universal and Triumphant® is a church for the Age of Aquarius that unites the world's religions. Sponsored by the ascended masters Jesus Christ and Gautama Buddha, the church embodies principles, practices and rituals that are based on the essential truths found at the heart of all faiths. It is a church where Eastern and Western spirituality converge. The mystical paths of Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, Zoroastrianism, Taoism and Confucianism are infused with new revelations from the ascended masters. [42]
Note: The first use of the name Church Universal and Triumphant appears to have been in the Manual of the Mother Church of the Christian Science church, written by Mary Baker Eddy. In the 1895 edition of the manual, Eddy used the terms "universal" and "triumphant" in referring to the church she had founded, and in the 1903 edition, explicitly referred to her organization as the Church Universal and Triumphant.
According to Wikipedia, the Summit Lighthouse is the outreach arm of Church Universal and Triumphant, founded in 1975, by Prophet's wife Elizabeth Clare Prophet. The stated mission of The Summit Lighthouse is to "publish and apply the teachings of the ascended masters as taught by Mark and Elizabeth Clare Prophet." For more than 50 years, The Summit Lighthouse has been publishing the Teachings of the Ascended Masters—the mystics and sages of East and West "who graduated from earth's schoolroom and attained union with God". [43] The home page of the Summit Lighthouse web site opens with the words
"Welcome to the Teachings Of The Ascended Masters... The wisdom of the spiritual revolutionaries of the ages—the Teachings of the Ascended Masters—form the guidance taught by Mark Prophet and Elizabeth Clare Prophet and published through the books, CDs and DVDs of The Summit Lighthouse". [44]
Summit University is the educational branch of The Summit Lighthouse, founded by Mark Prophet. It offers online courses for personal growth, spiritual retreats, and seminars in locations throughout the world. Its mission is to organize the teachings of the ascended masters into a practical course of study for seekers on the spiritual path.
After Mark Prophet died in 1973, Elizabeth Clare Prophet assumed control of The Summit Lighthouse. Although she herself died in 1999, her unpublished writings, lectures and dictations from the ascended masters continue to be released by The Summit Lighthouse and Summit University Press, and are often translated into more than 30 languages. [45]. This includes a "Meet The Master Series", "Teachings Of The Ascended Masters", and "Lost Teachings of Jesus Series". [46]
(The) Esoteric & Astrological Studies & Research Institute
is based in in Santa Cruz, CA. A letter from Risa, Founder & Director of the Institute, says the "enduring goal" of their organization, is the "education of humanity". She then goes on to say they plan to accomplish this through
"the creation of the community wherein the members, students, and visitors, through the study of Esoteric Astrology, Psychology and Healing, live the Principles and express the Laws of the New Age as outlined by the Tibetan Djwhal Khul in the Alice Bailey books, and through the building of a college wherein the esoteric teachings form the core of all the disciplines studied in a regular college. [47].
Which is why, the institute says, they
"are presently interested in purchasing land for the purpose of creating the first intentional community and esoteric college based entirely on the information in the Djwhal Khul/Alice Bailey books... to create, build and provide educational (Montessori pre-school through College), agricultural, healing, and retreat centers for students, seekers, and organizations the world over who aspire to study the Tibetan's material within an already established esoteric community" and "establishing and building a Healing Center based upon the principles the Tibetan has outlined in his book, Esoteric Healing". [48].
Findhorn Foundation
The home page of the Findhorn Foundations says they are a "spiritual community, learning centre, ecovillage" [48]
Their site says they were approved as a recognized Non-Governmental Organization, for formal association with the United Nations, in December 1997, which "the culmination of a series of official collaborations between the UN and the Findhorn Foundation." [49]. This means that, since 1998, Findhorn Foundation representatives, Frances Edwards and John Clausen, have been
attending the weekly UN Department of Public Information/NGO Briefing sessions, as well as participating in regular Values Caucus meetings and events, Spiritual Caucus meetings and meditations, the Conference of Non-Governmental Organisations in Consultative Relationship with the United Nations (CONGO) Sustainable Development Committee meetings, and various other conferences and workshops at the UN. [50]
While much of what they do is certainly to be admired since, as they say, there is an "urgent global need for viable, sustainable human settlements". Their Ecovillage Workshops focus on "Concepts, tools and techniques for creating sustainable human settlements, and cover topics such as Local organic food production, Renewable energy systems, Deep ecology and earth restoration, Ecological building and engineering, and Alternative waste water treatment. [51], It is certainly tempered by the fact that founder Peter Caddy attributed the initial success of the community to his spiritual practices.
The Findhorn Community was begun in 1962 by Peter and Eileen Caddy and Dorothy Maclean. During a period of unemployment from 1962 onwards, Peter Caddy began experimenting with organic gardening to supplement his family's food supply.
The land in the caravan park was sandy and dry but he persevered. Dorothy discovered she was able to intuitively contact the overlighting spirits of plants – which she called angels, and then devas ( the Sanskrit word for angels meaning 'shining ones) – who gave her instructions on how to make the most of their fledgling garden. She and Peter translated this guidance into action, and with amazing results. From the barren sandy soil of the Findhorn Bay Caravan Park grew huge plants, herbs and flowers of dozens of kinds, most famously the now-legendary 40-pound cabbages. Word spread, horticultural experts came and were stunned, and the garden at Findhorn became famous. [52]
In the late 60's the Park Sanctuary, and the Community Centre, where the community still eats and meets, were also built in accordance with Eileen's guidance. Later David Spangler, considered one of the founding figures of the modern New Age movement, joined the community for a period of about three years. He and his partner Myrtle Glines "helped to define and organise the spiritual development processes that have been a central pillar of the Findhorn community ever since". David Spangler and Dorothy Maclean went on to form the Lorian Association in Issaquah WA.
There is an interesting story told of Findhorn and David Spangler
"In 1970, Spangler journeyed to Britain where he visited the spiritual community of Findhorn in northern Scotland. Before leaving the United States he had been told by his own non-physical, spiritual contacts that he would find his "next cycle of work" in Europe; nevertheless, he was surprised when he arrived at Findhorn and was told that one of the founders, Eileen Caddy, had had a vision three years earlier that he would be coming there and would live there to work in the community. Not knowing who David Spangler was, Eileen and her husband Peter Caddy and their colleague, Dorothy Maclean, the three founders of the Findhorn Community, had been waiting for someone with that name to show up. Upon Spangler's arrival, he was offered--and, following his own inner direction, accepted--joint directorship of the community along with Peter". [Wikipedia].
 Not only did Findhorn Press publish Eileen's guidance (God Spoke To Me) and subsequent work, but also published many of David's "visionary writings". [53]. David Spangler's web site [http://davidspangler.com/] says that he has, since 1965, "worked clairvoyantly with a group of non-physical beings from the inner worlds of spirit". In his book Reflections On The Christ, he portrays Lucifer as a positive influence on man who desires the best for humanity, saying
"Lucifer is literally the angel of experience. Lucifer, then, is neither good or bad in his true essence. He is completely neutral. He is an agent of God's love acting through evolution."
The utter contempt for the God of the Old Testament, and His Holy Scriptures, is evident in Spangler's writings
'We can take all the Scriptures and all the teachings, and all the tablets and all the Laws, and all the marshmallows and have a jolly good bonfire and marshmallow roast, because that's all they are worth. Once you are the law, once you are the truth, you do not need it externally represented for you.' [54].
It is the "other services" Findhorn offers to complement their courses and "further a connection" to the community that are troubling. Taking a "non-judgemental approach", Findhorn offers "Spiritual Mentoring" if you would like to develop and maintain or even "deepen" your spiritual practice, or simply "have access to a variety of perspectives on spiritual matters". A 'variety of perspectives' is right. Judi Buttner has been a resident at the Foundation for 22 years, and is the main consultant for the programme. Her journey began with Transcendental Meditation
"She has also been a student of Advaita Vedanta, Buddhism, quantum theory, and Nisarga yoga. Strong influences have been Ramana Maharishi, Ram Dass, Eileen Caddy and Caroline Myss. Her work has included leading workshops on personal and spiritual development, particularly in the area of accessing intuition; guiding and training in the Transformation Game; compiling and editing Eileen Caddy's book Waves of Spirit; director of our Education Department" [55]
Fundacion Desarrollo Nuevo Pensiamiento (New Thought Foundation)
is said to have members in Venezuela, Puerto Rico, Argentina, Cuba, United States (Miami), Mexico, Honduras, Ecuador. Translated their home page says...
"We offer a monthly series of sections, through which you connect with the magic of the Age of Aquarius".Their primary objectives include encouraging "the development of global consciousness" and "Working for the true hierarchy is manifested in the world". [56].
[The] Gaiafield Project
Their web site states that they honor the principles of the United Religions Initiative and the Earth Charter [57] and develop "subtle activism principles, theories, practices, and programs, and aims to co-create a global network of subtle activists to support a shift to a global culture of peace". [58],
Subtle Activism "involves harnessing the power of consciousness-based practices like meditation and prayer to support collective transformation, as in a globally synchronized meditation for peace" [59].
The Gaiafield Community Center says it is "a gathering place for "subtle activists" of any tradition who use spiritual or consciousness practices such as meditation, prayer, or ritual to support collective and planetary transformation" [60]
The GaiaField Network is part of a large, resilient, multi-hub subtle activist movement of spiritual and consciousness leaders, communities, and individuals that we affectionately call Gaiafield Planet. Our aim is not so much to set up another new global meditation network, but to facilitate the sharing of information and resources between the many wonderful existing communities and networks which share the goal of bringing together hundreds of thousands of people for world peace" [61]
They also state how, through their many collaborative programs, they have developed strong working relationships with representatives from leading organizations in the field, including
Pathways to Peace/Culture of Peace Initiative, the Institute of HeartMath/Global Coherence Initiative, World Peace Prayer Society, the Shift Network, the Earth Treasure Vase Project, Association for Global New Thought, MedMob, Unify, Do As One, 1GiantMind, Winter Feast for the Soul, Sarvodaya, and others. [62]
In fact two members of the Gaiafield Council are
Avon Mattison, founder and President of Pathways To Peace (PTP), an international peacebuilding, educational and consulting organisation. PTP has Consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council and is an official Peace Messenger of the United Nations (UN).
Claudia Welss: a board member of the Foundation for Conscious Evolution, on the Steering Committee of the Global Coherence Initiative (Institute of HeartMath) as director of strategic partnerships, external research faculty for the Institute of Noetic Sciences, and is currently founding the Center for Causal Coherence at Wisdom University.

Goodwill Oslo
is a Norwegian non profit trust that supports the work of World Goodwill, with a page dedicated to the Triangles program, and another to The Great Invocation. Their home page (in Norwegian) says [Emphasis Added]
"We want to mobilize all positive forces. Do you have experience with meditation, often for a long time, you are welcome to meditate with us. We meet once a month on the full moon. For those who want it, we keep also in daily contact through meditation Triangle network". [64]
Two points of the mission are listed as
Helping to establish good will as the foundation for a new civilization.
Create a worldwide network of people of good will. Support the UN's work as the best hope for a unified functioning global society. [65]
They go on to say
An important tool in this work is to make known a prayer / mantram already in use worldwide by millions of people from different traditions and cultures: The Great Invocation. It is a valuable visualization tool in efforts to establish constructive thought energy on earth. We have chosen to present it in its original language, English, as, for each translation loses some of its force. Translations into Norwegian is also attached.
The very bottom of the home page has this "Goodwill Oslo is an activity inspired by Lucis Trust", while the meditation page opens with this line

Institute for Planetary Synthesis in Geneva:
IPS with, sadly, the same initials as this site, is "on the Roster of the United Nations Economic and Social Council." [67]. The institute compiles and distributes studies from the books of Master Djwhal Khul, Alice A. Bailey, H.P. Blavatsky, Agni Yoga Society, Dr. E. Krishnamacharya and others, [68] available in English, French, German, Russian and Spanish.
In December 1988, they created a fund for the preparation of the reappearance of the christ, "following the recognition of the problem represented by the worldwide lack of money for the work of preparation of the reappearance of the Christ and the externalisation of the Hierarchy". [69]. Their meditation for Planetary Synthesis "contains several passages from the World Goodwill meditation".. in other words The Great Invocation. [70]
See more about The Great Invocation, given by the non-human Dhjwal Khul (The Tibetan) to Alice Bailey)
Rudolf Schneider, co-founder and Secretary-General of the Institute is also, among many other things, "a member of the Steering Group of  the World Service Intergroup" and "one of the co-chairs of the Committee on Spirituality, Values and Global Concern, an official NGO Committee of the Conference of NGOs in consultative relationship with the UN". [71]

Intuition in Service (New Zealand)
says they are "grateful to the Lifebridge Foundation (See below) for a generous grant", and that they aim to "Help in the awakening of the intuition, and highlight its role in the creation of a better world".
 Intuition in Service was founded in 1999 by Steve Nation, who has been a student of the Alice Bailey teachings for over 30 years. He and his late wife, Jan, worked for almost 20 years at the London office of World Goodwill and Lucis Trust and, during the 1970s he and Jan "helped to establish the Triangle Centre, a Unit of Service associated with World Goodwill, in Paekakariki, New Zealand". [72]
Nation has, since 2002, coordinated an annual global meditation Vigil for the International Day of Peace, serves on the Council of the Spiritual Caucus at the United Nations and writes a regular column about the United Nations for the UK journal Caduceus. He is also a board member of the Lifebridge Foundation. [73], which was founded by his partner, Barbara Valocore, in 1992. She has been President of the Board of Directors since that time. [74]
Additionally, he, along with Barbara Valocore are Co-Convenors of the Spiritual Caucus at the United Nations. [75]
Steve Nation gave a talk at the 2005 Seven Ray Institute/University of the Seven Rays Conference, which "serve as vehicles for the presentation of the Ageless Wisdom teachings at this time of preparation for the return of the World Teacher".
[The] International Network of Esoteric Healers (INEH)
is a group of people dedicated to the practice and study of Esoteric Healing, which is a specific approach to spiritual healing". [76]. The work is largely based on the teachings of Djwhal Khul as presented in the book Esoteric Healing by Alice Bailey.
While they say their "keynote is world service, is non-sectarian, non-political and international in its thinking", the third on their short list of specific aims is "To assist the Plan of the Spiritual Hierarchy for humanity." [77]
[The] Institute of Noetic Sciences:
The word "noetic" comes from the ancient Greek nous, for which there is, reportedly, no exact equivalent in English. According to the institute's "about" page, it comes from the Greek noesis / noetikos, meaning inner wisdom, direct knowing, or subjective understanding. [78]
The institute was co-founded in 1973 by Edgar Mitchell, an astronaut who was part of the Apollo 14 mission. On the 1971 trip home from the moon, Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell had a life changing epiphany leading to the vision and creation of the Institute of Noetic Sciences. "As he watched the Earth float freely in the vastness of space, he became engulfed by a profound sense of universal connectedness."
At that moment the seeds of his next mission were sown..., which he described as follows:
"To broaden the knowledge of the nature and potentials of mind and consciousness and to apply that knowledge to the enhancement of human well-being and the quality of life on the planet."
He later described this as a "samadhi experience" and said "The presence of divinity became almost palpable, and I knew that life in the universe was not just an accident based on random processes. . . .The knowledge came to me directly." [79]
No Kidding!
While the rest of us have not been fortunate enough to gaze on the planet from space, the fact that life in the universe is not "just an accident based on random processes", is not exactly rocket science (no pun intended). Besides which a "sense of the presence of Divinity" did not necessarily mean he experienced the presence of God. Tragically, all too many people involved in the mystical and the occult attribute subjective 'feelings' to the presences of God.
Many many people have mystical experiences, which usually boil down to an altered state of consciousness, the experience usually interpreted according to the individual's beliefs and practices. Hindus believe they have union with the Hindu deities, the American Indian thinks he has contacted the Great Spirit, the Christian mystic believes he is receiving revelation from God and the Buddhist thinks he has achieved, or is on his way to, enlightenment. [See Contemplative Prayer]
The institute's research includes Unveiling Gaia: A noetic search for the collective wisdom of our planet, Evolutionary theory, Meditation, Distant Healing, Cultivating Spiritual Awareness. [See Gaia]
The institute's Facebook page features a Veriditas Labyrinth and is "liked" by over 25,000 people. [80] Incidentally, Veriditas is a non profit incorporated in the State of California in 1995 by Lauren Artress, priest at the new-age-friendly Grace Episcopal Cathedral in San Francisco, who in 1991, while on a brief sabbatical, "walked an informal taped labyrinth through the work of Jean Houston". [81]. The rest, as the saying goes, is history. In 1992, Artress had a replica of the Chartres labyrinth installed in the front of Grace Cathedral in San Francisco, and began promoting the labyrinth among spiritual seekers and ignorant churches around the U.S.A.
[See Walking The Labyrinth]
On September 20-22 2013, both Corinne McLaughlin and Gordon Davidson will be conducting a workshop ... Money As A Spiritual Asset, at The Institute of Noetic Sciences Retreat Center, in Petaluma, California. [82]
Lifebridge Foundation (New York)
Lifebridge Foundation, co-founded by Barbara L. Valocore (a long-time student of the Alice Bailey teachings and now President of the Board  of Directors) and her father, Paul M. Hancock, in 1992 as a "small independent family foundation", "for the purpose of supporting organizations and individuals who, through cultural, educational, and/or scientific means, are creating bridges of understanding among all people by actions to realize the oneness of humanity and the interconnectedness of all life." [83]
Lifebridge has had associative status with the Department of Public Information of the United Nations since 1997 and Barbara is Co-Convener of the Spiritual Caucus at the United Nations. [84]
The Lifebridge Foundation says they support "groups and individuals whose innovative projects reflect the oneness perspective; whose work exemplifies a global vision, demonstrates a spirit of inclusiveness, and fosters transformative action in a changing world". [85] Their grantees, as listed on their site [86], fall into different categories, one of which is "Global Spirituality". As of January 2009, the list of recipients stands at close to 75, many of which are part of this 'Global Alliance' and are either discussed on this page, or elsewhere on this site.

The labyrinth at Lifebridge Sanctuary has been built from stones on the property using the design of the Bronze Age labyrinth at Knossos in Crete, which was said to have been presided over by a great goddess. [88]
Lightworker
located in Las Vegas, is a nonprofit corporation, run by Steve and Barbara Rother, that uses the name ‘Lightworker' because "it clearly states our intent to carry Light to the earth". Steve Rother (President) "channels the loving entities simply known as the Group" [89], and says [Emphasis Added]
It was in May of 1997 that I got a strong nudge from the Group to create a place for Lightworkers to gather here on the Internet. This was to be a place where all could gather and experience their own empowerment… The Group gave several guidelines for this project. The guidelines were all about creating a place for people to come together to re-member who they were and the powers they had forgotten as a result of playing the game of being human." [90]
The ‘Lightworkers' [All Emphasis Added]
"have presented the material from the group five times at the United Nations. The part of the UN that hosted these talks were two separate and different organizations with the same purpose one in Vienna, Austria and the other at the United Nations Headquarters in New York.. [91]
In fact, Steve Rother taught a class on channeling at the United Nations, on April 26th 2000, which he believes was the first class on the art of channeling ever presented at a UN facility anywhere. Before the class on channeling [Emphasis Added]
the Group presented a beautiful message about planet Earth in the years ahead. They spoke of a form of Government designed for empowered humans that would be re-emerging soon. They said it was a form of non-government and is a return of the Lemurian ways. They spoke much of Lemuria and Atlantis; of what went wrong and how that can be avoided this time. They talked about Hitler and the eight million Lightworkers and the role they played in the evolution of planet Earth. They talked about the importance of working with the Indigo children to help them with their tasks of redefining the role of children everywhere. Then they also talked about the return of the Crystal Children and how we can prepare the planet to easily accept them. At one point the Group challenged those in attendance to create a formal space for the uniting of the religions of the world. They said that finding the common threads in the religions will quickly lead to a peaceful co-existence and understanding of our fellow men. Their message was followed by questions from the audience addressed directly to the Group. [92]
(The) Lorian Association:
located in Issaquah, Washington is "a non-profit educational and spiritual organization fostering a new consciousness of wholeness and interconnection."
Lucis Trust:
formerly Lucifer Publishing Co, founded in the 1920s by Alice Bailey, enjoys "Consultative Status" with the United Nations…
The World Goodwill group, founded in 1932, is particularly important among Lucis Trust's activities, as it has been recognized by the United Nations as a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO), and is represented at regular briefing sessions at the United Nations in New York and Geneva. Lucis Trust is therefore a member of the UN Economic and Social Council. [Wikipedia]
The Lucis Trust has not only spawned several other organization… the Arcane School, Triangles, World Goodwill, Lucis Publishing, Lucis Productions, Lucis Trust Libraries, the New Group of World Servers, but also maintain the UN meditation room. And the purpose of these groups? At their core ALL of them exist for one purpose. In their words… [Capitalization in original]
"the helping of the Great Ones and the rendering to Them of that intelligent assistance which will make their plans for humanity materialize". [93]
They are focused on making conditions suitable (By occult meditation and reciting of the Great Invocation) for what they call "The Reappearance of The Christ, and claim "Tens of thousands of people of goodwill throughout the world are using the Great Invocation every day" which makes the next statement rather chilling… [All Emphasis Added]
"The science of invocation is in reality the intelligent organisation of spiritual energy and of the forces of love, and these, when effective, will evoke the response of spiritual Beings Who can work openly among men and thus establish a close relation and a constant communication between humanity and the spiritual Hierarchy". [94]
The Lucis Trust as an organization that was directly founded by Alice Bailey herself, and is one of the seminal organizations of the entire movement. [See Alice Bailey and The Lucis Trust]
Manitou Foundation
was founded by Hanne and Maurice Strong in the Crestone area of Colorado in 1978. In their words [Emphasis Added]
The Strongs learned that since antiquity indigenous peoples had revered this pristine wilderness as a place for conducting their vision quests and receiving shamanic trainings. It is prophesied that the world's religious traditions would gather here and help move the world toward globally conscious co-existence and co-creation. The Strongs embraced this vision and in the early 1980's, personally gave land to two religious traditions (Carmelite Catholic and Tibetan Buddhist), and one intellectual/ educational organization. Through a dedicated commitment to honoring and developing the human spirit, Manitou Foundation, a non-profit, private foundation, was established in 1988 to carry on this vision, and foster a spiritually grounded community here.
Currently this community of centers of the world's religious traditions is the largest intentional interfaith ecumenical community in North America. Since its inception, it has grown as a place for many of the world's wisdom traditions to be practiced, taught and presented. Groups who have received financial and/or land grants, are in the process, or in discussion for grants, include - several Tibetan Buddhist lineages, Zen Buddhists, Christian, Hindu, Jewish, Sufi, Taoist, and Zoroastrian organizations. [95]
Meditation Mount:
the member page of the World Service Intergroup says this [All Emphasis Added]
"The impulse that guides and sustains Meditation Mount had its beginnings back in the 1950s when Roberto Assagioli (the Founder of Psychosynthesis) accepted the challenge given by Master DK to his students, to establish a "united world group given to unanimous and simultaneous meditation upon the work of preparing the world for the new order and for the jurisdiction of the Christ [and] to establish the knowledge of and the functioning of those laws and principles which will control the coming era, the new civilization and the future world culture...". [96]
Meditation Mount in Southern California is located on 32 acres of land at the east end of the Ojai Valley in California. It was founded by Florence Garrigue who, after she retired in 1943, "moved to New York to join the Arcane school, an institution for esoteric studies founded by Alice A Bailey". 10 years later, she and a group of friends started the School for Esoteric Studies in New York which is still active.
She then became a member of a small informal group of individuals from several countries who met in England for the purpose of fostering meditation to benefit the world.... It was from this group and its concept that she returned and founded the US branch of Meditation Groups, Inc. [97]
According to the web site of the Seven Ray Institute, Gordon Davidson, co founder of The Center for Visionary Leadership (Above), serves on the board of Meditation Mount [98], the mission of which is to promote the building of an enlightened and compassionate world through the power of creative meditation, inspirational educational programs, and community-based events focused on the practical application of the following universal spiritual principles... Right Human Relations and Goodwill, Group Endeavor, Unanimity, Spiritual Approach and Essential Divinity. [99]
Because they believe that "group meditations focus on the embodiment of universal spiritual principles as a cornerstone upon which a new global civilization will be built, [97], Meditation Mount welcome participation in a group meditation as an act of celebration and service at the time of the Full Moon, about which they say..
We use this monthly opportunity to join with groups around the world to utilize the outpouring of Light, Love and Power that is present to foster the common good. The purpose behind this group work is the development of collective consciousness to transform the world. [100]
Group meditations are held twice a week and Community Full Moon Meditations (Solar Fire Festivals) are held monthly. They further state that "The essential quality of the Festivals is livingness: two magnetic fields, earth and heaven, meet, the kingdom of humanity fuses with the kingdom of Souls, and this interplay will bring to pass the transfiguration of the earth". [101]
In November 2008, they held several retreats, one with Dorothy Maclean: Co-Founder of Findhorn Foundation, Scotland and a second with Corinne McLaughlin on Spiritual Politics: How to help create the highest good for the election. "Would you like to contribute to a spiritual politics guided by moral values—a politics that speaks to our deepest values as human beings and helps invoke our higher purpose as a nation?" [102]
Right!
Words, I am afraid, are very very cheap. "moral values", "deepest values" and "our higher purpose as a nation" apparently do not apply to the most defenseless among us.. The unborn. [See Section on Abortion]

Pathways To Peace (PTP)
is an international Peace Building, Educational and Consulting organization. Incorporated in 1983, Pathways To Peace has "Consultative Status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council, and works with the U.N. Centre for Human Rights, U.N. Centre for Human Settlements, UNESCO, UNICEF, and other Agencies". They are also an official Peace Messenger of the United Nations. [104]
"Peace", as it is defined by Pathways To Peace, is both an innate state of being and a "dynamic, evolutionary process". [105]
They quote Willis Harman (-1997) Senior Social Scientist at SRI International (Stanford Research Institute, President of the Institute of Noetic Sciences, globally respected futurist and author of many books including "Global Mind Change" as saying
"The negative belief that peace is not possible is the greatest impediment to achieving peace." [106]
Pathways To Peace is one of the many organizations listed on the member page of the "World Service Intergroup", which says [Emphasis Added]
Esoterically, PTP's mission is based upon Rays 1 - 3 as an organizing triangle of purpose. PTP's 8 - path Peace Wheel is based upon the Ageless Wisdom, the 7 Rays, and a quarter century of work with the United Nations and other international organizations. Meditation is the basis of our decision process. [19]
Meditation is the basis of their decision making process, means that whatever they do is guided by beings that the Bible warned us about. Demonic and very powerful beings that, under the guise of benevolence and goodwill, seek to little but get humans to join them in their final revolt against God... One that they cannot win.
Pathways To Peace Advisors includes Jean Houston (spiritual mentor of Lauren Artress .. the Episcopal priest who runs the Labyrinth Project at Grace Cathedral in San Francisco), Steve Nation, David Spangler, and Barbara Marx Hubbard (all prolific New Age authors), while Dr. Robert Muller is listed as a Senior Advisor. Peter Caddy, founder of the Findhorn Foundation community, is listed "In Spiritus" (he died in 1994). [107]
[See Walking The Labyrinth]
 Avon Mattison, founder of Pathways To Peace is a Findhorn Fellow [108], is on the Board of Directors for The Center for Visionary Leadership [109] (above), and a member of the Gaiafield Wisdom Council … a "self-selected" member of the Wisdom Circle that provides "strategic and hands-on guidance for active Gaiafield Center projects". [110]. And she certainly has a truckload of achievements
A U.S. Foreign Service diplomat for three years serving the European Community, Avon was also former special advisor to the White House Conference on Small Business. Avon is a Summa Cum Laude graduate in political science and international communications, University of Maryland and George Washington University. She's listed in "Who's Who in Business and Finance", and Strathmore's "Who's Who Registry of Business Leaders." She serves as a Creative Member of The Club of Budapest, a Findhorn Fellow, and serves on the Advisory Councils/Boards of several international organizations, including: the Global Commission to Fund the United Nations, the Center For Visionary Leadership, Ehama Institute, Foundation for the Healing Among Nations, Global Youth Action Network, Radio For Peace International, World Peace Prayer Society, the World Centers of Compassion for Children, and the World Fund for the Dignity of Children. - [111]
[The] PATH Foundation
The home page opens with these words
Welcome to the PATH Centre Website
"Dedicated to Sanat Kumara & the Ascended Masters of the Great White Brotherhood."
The Path Centre is a new spiritual school emerging out of the living stream of Ageless Wisdom teachings in response to a new evolutionary impulse. That impulse is flowing from the divine Source bringing renewed life & joy to Humanity. [112]
The Path Foundation was founded by John Waters who "had several visions about the nature of the Path which set him reflecting on the direction these activities should take and he decided they should focus on spiritual psychology". The page goes on to say that (Emphasis Added
"Through the Centre John and his co-workers are offering training that aligns with the activities of the Spiritual Hierarchy and represents an opportunity for those who seek a genuine pathway to spiritual realization". [113]
Their monthly meditations are
"... held around the time of the monthly Full Moon are a way to link up esoterically with the energies and impressions flowing between Shamballa (the centre where the will of God is known), the Spiritual Hierarchy and the New Group of World Servers.
The PATH Centre is a member of the World Service Intergroup (WSI), a planetary association of over 80 ageless wisdom groups. The WSI aligns with the Ashram of Synthesis, which is esoterically guided by the Masters Morya, Djwhal Khul & Rakoczy". [114]
[The] School of Ageless Wisdom
in Arlington, Texas says they have decided to "limit" their esoteric studies together to the series of books that have been authored by Master D.K., Master M. and Master R. and are clearer than most as to the identity of these "masters". In their word [Emphasis Added]
The Masters, Djwhal Khul, Morya, and Racokzi, are not strictly human. All have been members of the fourth kingdom in nature, the Human Kingdom, and All have Mastered that part of Earthly training and service. All now form part of the Spiritual Hierarchy of our Planet. [115]
Seven Ray Institute/University of the Seven Rays
 The Seven Ray Institute, located in Jersey City, was co-founded by Michael Robbins, president of the University of the Seven Rays... "a long standing teacher of the Ageless Wisdom". The home page of their web site says
"The Seven Ray Institute and The University of the Seven Rays serve as vehicles for the presentation of the Ageless Wisdom teachings at this time of preparation for the return of the World Teacher.
Their page on the United Nations [116] covers "The Spiritual Work of the United Nations", with the four following sub-headings
•The United Nations: A Spiritual Perspective
•Aquarian Age Community
•Intuition-in-Service UN Days Meditation
•Extracts from the Alice Bailey books on the United Nations
See more on the Aquarian Age Community which operates from the heart of the United Nations and Alice Bailey
The Church has to "Clean House"
The Seven Ray institute has, apparently, held several conferences. They kicked off their twentieth International Conference on April 5th 2006, with "an evening of selections from the Reappearance of the Christ Oratorio, newly composed by Michael Robbins and orchestrated by Harold Moses". In a grotesque misuse of a Biblical passage they say
"Wherever Two or More are Gathered in His Name: Merging with the Living Christ Through the Principle of Relationship". [117]
In Matthew 18:15-20, Jesus is specifically talking about the Christian who commits an offense against another Christian. [DETAILS]
The 27th Annual International Conference was held in Mesa, Arizona from April 3 to April 14, 2013. The subject of the conference was "Envisioning an Ideal World Spirituality: Resurrecting the Soul of Humanity". Here are some excerpts from thie page dealing with this conference...
"... we are told by the Master DK "the churches and organized religions would do well to remember" that they are but one among many "teaching avenues" for spirituality. "All possible channels whereby the consciousness of man may be enlarged and right orientation may be brought about" will be creatively used.
"The true Church is the Kingdom of God on earth" and "mankind is the world-church." Its members are those "who live by the Light within, and who think in terms of humanity as a whole rather than by individual, national, racial or religious divides
It becomes the responsibility of the more enlightened members of our humanity to hold compass points for unawakened humanity still ensconced in darkness engendered by fearful human minds, to serve as beacons of radiant light until the light breaks through!
What is needed is a true and shared world spirituality which respects diverse cultural values and yet, which leads inevitably towards a true and Universal World Religion—the New World Religion (at once scientific and sane) which is in line with the emerging Aquarian and seventh ray values.
Under the sub-heading Facing Humanity's Major Problem: The Religious Problem, they say... (Underlining added. Italics in original)
Those of us who are well-trained in the Ageless Wisdom and understand something of the broader picture concerning the emergent New World Religion, have a great educational responsibility to raise and broaden the ideals surrounding the subject of religion and spirituality. There is still time for an inclusive and enlightened view of humanity's relation to the Divine to prevail. Nothing short of a courageous presentation of the tenets of the New World Religion will suffice to force the raging conflict between sectarian beliefs to subside. It is necessary for adherents of the world's faiths to understand that each great world religion comes, ultimately, from One Source which The Secret Doctrine reveals....
"Continuity of Revelation" — no religion has the last and final work concerning the relation of God and man.
Exclusivism in the Field of Religion is a great fallacy, a great glamour, and its 'spell' must be dispelled! Add to this the necessity of understanding the factual and benevolent work of reincarnation and we will have some of the fundamentals which will bring raging religious conflicts into a condition of peace — the peace which is expected as a result of the Reappearance of the Christ.
Introducing and explaining these few points to the unenlightened millions is a huge work and it will be resisted strenuously by the fanatical adherents of various faiths - and all faiths have their fanatics! But the day of the fanatics has its term and is destined to fade away. It is up to those who understand something of humanity's spiritual future to render the transition of fanaticism into enlightened spiritual reason a less dangerous and destructive process than it might otherwise be.
For those who may have a time to wait before such a transition is possible, they may at least be guided into a truer, safer approach to religion/spirituality than the ones they now pursue.
The Great Lord Maitreya, the Christ, the Head of the Spiritual Hierarchy is "on His way". His intention is to reappear when a measure of economic sharing prevails, when a measure of peace has been restored, and when the "Church cleans house" ...
We heartily invite you to attend our 27th Conference dedicated to such an important subject in today's troubled world. The "Problem of the Churches" as Master DK called it, simply must be solved before it precipitates the dark cloud hanging over the so-called "Holy Land" and many other areas of the Earth. [118]
A PDF brochure of the event shows how completely the world will be fooled by the antichrist.. [All Emphasis Added]
Ever since the Great Lord of Love and Compassion left the earth 2000 years ago, He has been expected to return and walk openly among us once again. Never has He really left us, daily blessing the world with the energy of Universal Love, an energy that pours through Him continuously. As Custodian of "Life More Abundant", He holds the spiritual destiny of humanity in His hands, helping each one of us to realize that we are a spark of the Most High. He is known and increasingly invoked by Humanity under various Names: The Lord Christ, the Master of Masters, Teacher Alike of Angels and Men, in the West; The Lord Maitreya and the Bodhisattva, in the East; the Iman Madhi among Muslims; The Messiah to Come among Jews; The Prince of Peace, the Hierophant and the Initiator among students of the Ageless Wisdom; and by all spiritual seekers as the World Teacher, The Great Lord of Light and Love, The Coming One. As Christ reappears, first within human consciousness and later in physical form, He will bring with Him new potencies and new objectives that are universal in nature. He will not be entirely recognizable as the Christ known in the Piscean Age, now drawing to a close. As the Aquarian Christ, He will enunciate great new themes and ideas, and will pour forth a vitality that will condition human consciousness for the next 2000 years. [119]
Speakers at the conference included Karl Maret, President of the non-profit Dove Health Alliance foundation, Joleen Dubois, president of the White Mountain Education Group, Gordon Davidson, Corinne McLaughlin, Steve Nation (founder of "Intuition in Service" and "UN Days and Years) and many others [120].
Sirius Community in Massachusetts,
was founded in 1978 by former members of Findhorn community in Scotland who wished to establish a similar community in America. [121]
They say their "spiritual basis reflects awareness of a Divine Presence underlying all things" with meditation as the "essence" of their shared practice, hosting Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, Wiccan, Celtic, Goddess etc. retreats. [122] [See The Findhorn Foundation above].
Sydney Goodwill
The home page says "The books of Alice A. Bailey and others published by Lucis Press form an important library of titles distributed by Sydney Goodwill", and talks of the Triangle program, in which "Three people agree to link in thought each day and use the Great Invocation"... followed by a link to the Triangles page on the Lucis Trust. [123]
On their "about" page they say...
The world has a spiritual destiny. Behind evolution there is an abiding purpose, which we call the Plan of God. The divine Plan can only work out into expression through humanity. Each of us is responsible for doing all we can in our daily living to express its meaning and significance..
Sydney Goodwill works in cooperation with all individuals and groups of like mind and purpose to promote understanding, goodwill and right human relations across our planet. [124]
[The] Temple Of Understanding
is located in New York City, and has maintained a strong presence at the United Nations, organizing workshops, lectures and major events including hosting the 50th Anniversary Celebration of the UN in New York and are accredited through the Economic and Social Council with Special consultative Status, which means they have "a role in formal UN deliberations".
They were founded in 1960 by a "pioneering visionary", Juliet Hollister, with the support of a distinguished group of "Founding Friends," which included Eleanor Roosevelt, Ecumenical Patriarch Athenagoras, Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, Thomas Merton, H.H. Pope John XXIII, Anwar al-Sadat, the Dalai Lama and U Thant, among others. They say they have
And say they
"…educate youth and adults both cross culturally and inter-religiously for global citizenship and peaceful coexistence; advocate for acceptance and respect for religious pluralism by the worlds governing bodies; and actively continue our role in the Social Justice Movement.
The design of the Temple building is suggestive of the world-view which inspired its construction
"A pamphlet published by the Temple's corporation prior to the building's completion explains its architectural symbolism : radiating from [the] central hall will extend six wings, each to represent one of the six religions of the world which are international in scope. Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Christianity and Islam.' The central hall is capped by a glass dome shaped like a cut diamond; this dome remains constantly illuminated at night 'in order to indicate, symbolically, that even while the world sleeps, the light of understanding continues to shine.' The priesthood which helped to create and operate the Temple of Understanding is the United Lodge of Theosophists of New York, through the tax exempt Lucis Trust (formerly Lucifer Publishing Company)." [126]
Again.. please remember that nobody, but nobody, can fault humanitarian work. For example the URI's site says they were
"… delivering blankets to earthquake victims on the mountaintops of Pakistan and giving comfort to hurricane survivors in America's south… Members of URI's interfaith Cooperation Circles brought medicine and dignity to thousands of AIDS patients in southern Africa. They organized school exchanges where Israeli and Palestinian kids became friends. They helped negotiate a cease fire between rival religious sects in Manila and took guns off the streets of Rio de Janeiro. [127]
For which they are to be commended. In the wake of a tragedy, people can and should, regardless of their personal and religious differences, work shoulder to shoulder to alleviate pain and distress. According to the preamble of the URI Charter, the United Religions Initiative (URI) is a
"growing global community dedicated to promoting enduring, daily interfaith cooperation, ending religiously motivated violence and creating cultures of peace, justice and healing for the Earth and all living beings". [128]
There are 21 principles that make up the URI Charter. In reading the charter, one gets the impression that this body truly exists for a noble cause. In practice, the URI discourages proselytizing, blurs the line between right and wrong, and demonizes those who did not support its conception – Jews and "fundamentalist" Christians.
Three of the principles contain language that could tie the hands and gag the mouths of evangelical Christians. See The Case Against the United Religions Initiative
[The] Triangle Centre
was founded in 1975, and registered as a non-profit charitable trust in New Zealand in 1976.
The Triangle Centre conducts Meditation meetings for world service, held at the Triangle Centre in Paekakariki and Wellington. They say
Wherever possible meetings are held in the 18 hours prior to the full moon –therefore, some meetings are held on the day before the full moon. The full moon marks the time each month when the impact of the divine energies of Light, Love and Power are at their peak and can be registered as a group and radiated into human consciousness. [129]
United Lodge of Theosophists
founded in 1909, says their aim is "independent devotion to the cause of Theosophy, without professing attachment to any Theosophical organization. It is loyal to the great Founders of the Theosophical movement, but does not concern itself with dissensions or differences of individual opinion. . They call the work they have on hand "absorbing" and "lofty". [130].
White Mountain Education Group
was founded in 1982 in Arizona, to promote Ageless Wisdom, and will, as they say "will share information about The Ageless Wisdom, Hierarchy, Agni Yoga, Astrology" etc.
Founder and president, Rev. Joleen D. DuBois "is a teacher of spiritual science, the Ageless Wisdom, and an accomplished writer, astrologer, composer and musician". [131].
Helena P. Blavatsky and the Roerichs are listed as "Teachers of spirit and great thinkers". [132], and "as a community church, White Mountain pastoral services include spiritual counseling, wedding services, baptismal rites, memorial services, prayer lists for healing" etc. "All sacraments are performed by ministers of the White Mountain Educational Association".
Baptismal rites???
One cannot help but wonder what people are being baptized into.
Wisdom Impression Publishers
are based in Whittier, California. They say they are "... a group of practitioners of The Wisdom", and they their purpose is "to help create the appearance, support the teaching, and facilitate the distribution of The Wisdom". [19] Speaking about individual development, their site says
"meditation is the open door into initiation. It is the way into Light which is tread by all disciples of The Christ. It is via this activity that the inner Kingdom of God, the world of meaning, and the "Secret Place of the Most High'' is entered and known. Every activity of the accepted disciple has been first contemplated and worked out in cooperation with the Divine Plan via meditation. There comes a time in the life of every individual when further spiritual progress is dependent upon this activity, for it is literally the footpath of the Gods". [133]
[The] World Federalist Movement-Institute for Global Policy (WFM-IGP)
is a global citizens movement with member and associate organizations around the world. It is based in New York City across from the United Nations headquarters. The Movement has, since 1970, had Special Consultative Status with the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) of the United Nations, is affiliated with the UN Department of Public Information (DPI) and a current board member of the Conference of NGOs (CONGO). It currently counts 30,000 to 50,000 supporters.
Note: The Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) of the United Nations assists the General Assembly in promoting international economic and social cooperation and development.
The following are short excerpts from their "about us" page...
work in partnership with the United Nations, governments, and other international and regional institutions around the globe—as well as with thousands of committed individuals and world leaders—to advance a mission of peace, prosperity, and security for all....The World Federalist Movement evolved out of a series of national organizations and efforts that started in the 1930s as a response to the failure of the League of Nations and in the attempt of creating the kind of global order that could prevent world war.
'We fear that the UN' efforts towards peace, like those of the League of Nations, may not be successful, if the world is not willing to take this next step to World Federalist Government'. [134]
What I find interesting is that Donald Keys was a former president of World Federalists.
In the early 70's, Donald Keys "was a speech writer for Secretary-General, U Thant (who was also a mystic), with whom he co-founded the NGO group, Planetary Citizens " Keys regards the United Nations as "the most spiritual place in the world today". This quote comes from a page on the Aquarian Age Website was written in the early 1970s by him, when he was a speech writer for Secretary-General, U Thant. [135]
On one occasion, at the beginning of the 1980s, Donald Keys wrote:
"The New Age groups are focussing and entering a new stage -- a world related stage. They are becoming mature enough to begin to shoulder some of the load of humanity's burden... The spread of New Age values as a unifying "yeast" in the human loaf may be the critical ingredient for successful emergence from the 1980s". [One Earth Image, Magazine of the Findhorn Foundation, Vol.1, Issue 1, February/ March, 1980, p.1.]
In this same article, Donald Keys posed the question, "To what extent will New Age energies and values invest the human scene in the 1980s?" And he answers: "Without doubt it will have a major impact throughout the world on the value content of governance and the way life is lived" [Ibid]. [136]
However, Keys was also a former administrator of Lucis Trust, has been actively involved with the New Age Findhorn Community in Scotland, and has written for its magazine 'One Earth'. . [137]. It is little wonder then, that his book Earth at Omega, is dedicated ...
"To my Mentors (in the order of their appearance) Max Heindel, Djwhal Khul, Morya, Erling, Geshe Wangyal, Sri Chinmoy" (Chinmoy was the UN’s guru for 23 years).
World Goodwill
A branch of Lucis Trust, is an accredited non-governmental organisation with the Department of Public Information of the United Nations. It maintains informal relations with certain of the specialised agencies and with a wide range of national and international non-governmental organisations. It defines itself as
"an organised movement founded in 1932 to help establish right human relations and solve humanity's problems through the constructive power of goodwill. World Goodwill's activities are essentially educational". [138]
They list six recognitions that can provide a basis for realising their purposes and objectives: The first three are bone chilling [Emphasis Added]
One: Humanity is not following a haphazard or uncharted course -- there is a Plan. This Plan has always existed and is part of the greater design of the Cosmos. The Plan has worked out through the evolutionary developments of the past and because of the special impetus given it from time to time by the great leaders, teachers and intuitives of the human race.
Two: There is an inner spiritual government of the planet, known under such different names as the spiritual Hierarchy, the society of Illumined Minds, or Christ and his Church, according to various religious traditions. Humanity is never left without spiritual guidance or direction under the Plan.
Three: The widespread expectation that we approach the "Age of Maitreya", as it is known in the East, when the World Teacher and present head of the spiritual Hierarchy, the Christ, will reappear among humanity to sound the keynote of the new age. [139] [More About

[The] World Peace Prayer Society (WPPS)
is a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) affiliated with the United Nations Department of Public Information since 1990. It is the international home of the World Peace Prayer Society. Nestled in the foothills of the Berkshire Mountains, the site occupies 154 acres located in Wassaic, New York just two hours north of New York City. [140]. The goal of the WPPS at the United Nations is to bring the prayer "May Peace Prevail on Earth" into the workings of the UN - including governments, agencies, departments, NGOs and events. This neutral, universal prayer can serve as a spiritual bridge, even in a secular setting, among people from all parts of the world.
A not-for-profit organization, WPPS was founded in Japan by Masahisa Goi of Japan, in 1955, but the world headquarters were moved to New York in 1988. The Universal Message and Prayer, May Peace Prevail On Earth, was conceived in a moment of great inspiration by Masahisa Goi . Since its birth over half a century ago, the simple yet profound words, May Peace Prevail On Earth, has reached deep into the hearts and lives of global citizens everywhere. [141].
Since 1997, the World Peace Flag Ceremony has also been an integral part of the International Day of Peace program at the United Nations. [142]. However, this World Peace Flag Ceremony has also been held on other occasions, such as the annual Wesak celebration hosted by the UN staff's Society for Enlightenment and Transformation. [143]
However, the home page of their site says [All Emphasis Added]
"Thought forms create an energetic field strong enough to empower the course of planetary destiny". [144].
Related Organizations and Programs
Goi Peace Foundation (GPF) located in Tokyo, Japan, is sister organization to The World Peace Prayer Society. GPF encourages public awareness of peace by building an international peace network among individuals and organizations in all fields, including education, science, culture and the arts to stimulate the global trend toward a culture of peace. [145]
Peace Pals is a program of The World Peace Prayer Society, designed to encourage young people ages 5-15 to become peacemakers dedicated to living in the spirit of the words May Peace Prevail on Earth. . The Annual International Peace Pals Arts Exhibition and Awards receives thousands of artworks from around the world giving children an opportunity to express their wishes and visions for a peaceful world. Groups of children plant Peace Poles at their schools, community centers, churches, and even in their own backyards to help to keep the message alive. They also participate in World Peace Flag Ceremonies, customized for use in schools, in which everyone gathers to present the flags of all nations in a collective intention for peace throughout the world. [94]
The Peace Pole Project: A Peace Pole is a four sided monument that displays the message and prayer" May Peace Prevail On Earth"on each of its four or six sides, usually in different languages. There are said to be "tens of thousands" of these Poles in 180 countries all over the world dedicated as monuments to peace, which "serve as constant reminders for us to visualize and pray for world peace "
Peace Poles carrying the message "May Peace Prevail on Earth" have been presented to many international organizations and governments to promote a Culture of Peace around the world, including: Peace-lovers of all faiths have been involved in Peace Pole dedications, including the XIV Dalai Lama, Mother Teresa, President Jimmy Carter, Deepak Chopra and John Denver, as well as mayors, clubs and Girl Scouts.
There are Peace Poles on the Allenby Bridge between Israel and Jordan; at the Peace Park where 84 Peace Poles commemorate the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City; at the War Museum in Viet Nam; at Robben Island in South Africa, where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned; at the Pyramids at El Giza in Egypt; at the site of the baptism of Jesus at Bethany-Beyond-the-Jordan; and at schools, churches, synagogues, mosques and temples across the United States and around the world. [146]
(The) World Service Intergroup (WSI)
says they are
"an international network of Ageless Wisdom groups committed to developing intergroup relationships, cooperation and synthetic subjective work", that "have been meeting each year since 1996 during one of the Three Spiritual Festivals in various locations around the world including the five planetary centers of New York, London, Geneva, Darjeeling and Tokyo".
and says their purpose is [Emphasis Added]
And go on to say
"One of our tasks is to recognize them, and assist them by preparing humanity for the imminent reappearance of the World Teacher. This World Teacher, or The Coming One is known by many different names in the various spiritual traditions: Christ; Maitreya; Messiah; Imam Mahdi etc. This reappearance will be preceded by a widespread opening of the heart of humanity, and a recognition of the inner teacher in each one of us, manifesting as a consciousness of love and service to all. [147]
What is truly scary is that they list 89 member Groups, located all over the world... from the Netherlands to Bolivia, and from the Ukraine to Australia. [148]
Note: All the following was excerpted from an article entitled The Founding, Purpose and Development of the World Service Intergroup by Gordon Davidson. It is a pdf file linked from this page..... http://www.worldserviceintergroup.net/#/articles/4539311373.
Gordon Davidson, co-founder Center for Visionary Leadership (above) in writing about "The Founding, Purpose and Development of the World Service Intergroup", refers to his inspiration "to call together esoteric groups in the Bailey, Theosophical and Agni Yoga traditions for an international conclave in Washington", adding that it "was developed from a series of meditative inspirations received during the period of February through April 1995". [All Emphasis Added].
During this period, he was
"...inspired with the idea of inviting founders and leaders of esoteric groups from around the world to gather together for a Conclave in Washington DC in the spirit and purpose of a conclave held by the Hierarchy... explore what could be done to improve its potency and usefulness to the Plan"
One of the purposes outlined in the invitational letter was... [Emphasis Added]
"To bring together a meditating group in one location who can together build and anchor an energetic pathway into the Earth to assist the Externalization of the Hierarchy and the Reappearance of the Christ".
Conclaves: Incidentally their first meeting was held on May 1-5, 1996, in Washington DC on Wesak. Subsequent conclaves have also been held on auspicious days.. The second conclave was held in Los Angeles in May 1997 during the Gemini Full Moon, the third in London in April, 1998, during the Aries Full Moon, and the fourth was held in Geneva, Switzerland for the Wesak Festival in May, 1999 and so on... [Read more about The Significance of Wesak]
Of the conclave in Darjeeling, India during Wesak in May 2001, Gordon Davidson said [Emphasis Added]
"there was a tremendous potency to our work, being so close to the Himalayas, the inspiring abode of the Masters, which we could see from our hotel."
Incidentally they say that a "high point" of the Geneva conclave was
"developing new techniques for reaching the public with the truths of the Ageless Wisdom, including bumper stickers. The winning entry was "Good is Inevitable, so Join the Winning Team!"
Which has given me no end of wry amusement.. If only they knew how right they are.. and how firmly on the side of the 'Losing Team'.
Supporters: The World Service Intergroup is supported by Avon Mattison, Pathways to Peace founder, "because of her deep and long experience in bringing together NGOs at the United Nations, immediately saw the significance and value of such an effort. She has offered WSI her potent subjective capacities and wise counsel ever since". Other leaders in the esoteric movement who also lent early support include (There is more information about most of these groups on this page)
Angelia Robberts, from the Wisdom Synthesis Center.
Niels Bronsted, an esoteric teacher from Esoteric Center Copenhagen (now called Center for The Inner Dimensions of Life. See below),
Rudolf Schneider, from the Institute for Planetary Synthesis in Geneva.
Helen Frankland from the International Network of Esoteric Healers in the UK.
Barbara Valocore from the Lifebridge Foundation in New York.
Steve Nation, from Intuition in Service in New Zealand... a student of the Alice Bailey teachings for over 30 years.
Conclusion
The so called "ancient wisdom" messages given the world come from people like Helena Blavatsky, Alice Bailey, Helena Roerich and others who, over the last few decades, have been contacted (and manipulated) by spirit guides, usually referred to as the "Ascended Masters", the "Masters of Wisdom, the "Hierarchy of Light" etc. These guides have indulged in philosophical exchanges, or communicated their messages, which have been duly written down by their compliant minions, and then presented to the world as "truth". This done without one ounce of evidence that the spirit guide was who he claimed to be, or that his message could, in any way, be trusted. They speak... and human beings fall over like ninepins, rushing to embrace whatever "wisdom" is being put forth. It is accepted that these spirits are who they claim to be, and that the particulars they provide are unreservedly true. No further proof or evidence asked for, and none received.
For example, consider the far more recent case of Barbara Marx Hubbard, president of the Foundation for Conscious Evolution. A spirit that identified itself to her as "Jesus" was, and apparently, continues to be, believed without reservation or question. This "Christ voice" has not only given her first-hand detail about what will one day happen in the world, but together Hubbard and "Christ" have rewritten the Bible's Book of Revelation. Hubbard’s "Christ" gave her specific instructions on how a united humanity, purposefully partnering with God, can literally re-create the future. This "Christ" teaches that the "violent" Armageddon script described in the Bible does not have to happen, that it is only a "possible" future [See Footnote I]
These people are making an effort to shape the very world on the words of a spook without credentials, or a shred of evidence that they are who they say they are, and that their intentions are as honorable as they make them out to be.
And they call Christians fools? Seems to me the boot is on the other foot.
New Agers dismiss the Bible as being unreliable (in spite of much evidence to the contrary). Make no mistake.. the Bible is either totally deceptive, totally deranged, or totally divine--there is no fourth option like 'a very good and insightful book'. [If you do not know anything about the New Age, an overview on this site may be a good place to start. See New Age Overview]
Although the Bible does not glow in the dark, levitate or exhibit any other supernatural qualities, it is possible to determine the validity and the authenticity of the claims made by the Scriptures.
Just for a start... the very authorship of the Bible is a literary miracle... impossible to account for upon ordinary principles.
Written by over forty independent writers, over a 1,500 year time span, on three different continents under many different circumstances, in three different languages. The authors had as many as twenty different occupations ranging from a couple of kings, a general, a musician, a priest, a tax collector, a physician and at least two fishermen. To say nothing of widely differing levels of education. Yet, this diverse group wrote about a huge number of different subjects in all literary forms (poetry, prose, letters etc). Yet Without possible concert or collusion, they produced a book which, in all its parts, has one spirit, one doctrine, one design. It is amazing that with such diversity, there is such unity in the Bible. A unity organized around one theme... God's redemption of man and all of creation. Hundreds of controversial subjects are addressed and yet the writers do not contradict each other. [See Could You Write The Bible? On THIS page]
Besides which, we can we know that the Bible is the only Word of God, simply because there is one test that we can apply to all 'sacred writings'.... The test of prophecy, or foretelling of future events. It is a simple matter to ascertain whether such prophecies have been fulfilled or not.
This escalation of people working towards 'peace', under the circumstances outlined above, is one of the most telling signs of the End Times. I have little doubt that it will be these same people that, in the future, will think they have actually achieved "peace and safety", perhaps when their Maitreya arrives. However Scripture very certainly prophesies that, at that time, the result will be quite the opposite of anything resembling peace. Scripture tells us that God Himself will visit "sudden destruction" upon the criers.
For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. When they are saying, Peace and safety, then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall in no wise escape. [1Thesslonians 5:2-3].
God Himself will bring peace, but in His time and, on His terms and for His people.
Note: The phrase "day of the Lord" sometimes referred to as "that day" identifies events that take place at the end of history as we know it. A span of time during which God personally, and directly, intervenes to bring about the end of this age and the beginning of a new and permanent one. It is not certain whether the phrase refers to a single day or a period of time, but what we can be certain about is that there will be a cataclysmic events in the heavens and on earth, when the Lord will destroy this earth. This will be followed by Christ's return to earth with His followers, to establish His eternal kingdom which, by the way is “heaven”, not some vague, ethereal place ‘out there’. [See What and Where is Heaven?]
But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up. [2 Peter 3:10 NASB]
'The sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the great and glorious day of the Lord shall come. [Acts 2:20 NASB]
Fascinating isn't it that many hundreds of years before these 'peace' organizations were ever dreamed of. Hundreds of years before the Blavatskys, Baileys, Walschs, Findhorns and Lifebridges were ever imagined, the Scripture foretold of this day. Warned us of that a "man of sin", or "son of perdition" would arrive on the scene and, in talking about the last days, foretold that people would cry "peace and safely".
Footnote I
Excerpts from an article by Christian apologist, Warren Smith
Barbara Marx Hubbard writes that in 1966 she heard an "inner voice" that came in response to a question she had asked aloud and directed to God — "What is our story? What in our age is comparable to the birth of Christ?"
Over the coming months the "Christ voice" gave her more information and insight about the vision she had in 1966 and more first-hand detail about what will one day be taking place in the world. Hubbard understood that it was her mission to continue telling the story of humanity's "birth."
Since 1966, Hubbard has fulfilled her commission from "Christ" to tell his New Age/New Gospel story. From NASA to the former USSR to the United Nations, she has spoken to thousands of people and hundreds of groups and organizations about the "planetary birth experience" she had been shown in her vision. In the process, she has become a respected "world citizen," known and loved by many for her insights about "God" and "Christ" and the future of humanity.
Hubbard and "Christ" "rewrite" the Bible's Book of Revelation. In The Revelation, Hubbard's "Christ" provides specific instructions on how a united humanity, purposefully partnering with God, can literally re-create the future. This "Christ" teaches that the "violent" Armageddon script described in the Bible does not have to happen, that it is only a "possible" future, emphasizing that a more "positive" future can and will manifest when humanity, without exception, openly declares its "oneness" with him and all creation. This positive scenario and the means to attaining it is called "the alternative to Armageddon." [149] [PLACE IN TEXT]
Footnote II
Brief history of the spread of Ageless Wisdom as outlined in the book Spiritual Politics, authored by Corinne McLaughlin and Gordon Davidson.
In this book Corinne McLaughlin and Gordon Davidson describe how the "... Wisdom in the West was shielded from an unprepared public, veiled in the original teaching of Hermes Trismegistus, the geometric symbols of Pythagoras, the alchemical formulas of Paracelus, the diplomacy of the Count St.-Germain" etc.
"The unveiled truths were only handed down only orally by individual teachers to "tested disciples or by certain religious groups and secret societies, such as the Kabbalists, Druids, Essenes, Sufis, Knights Templar, Rosicrucians, Freemasons, and others who carefully guarded the teachings down through the centuries. A study of these secret societies would reveal powerful influences on the history of nations..."
Over the last hundred years, the Ageless Wisdom has spread widely in the West, beginning with the work of the Russian Helena Petrovna Blavatsky. Her seminal book, The Secret Doctrine, published in 1888, synthesized Christian, Jewish, and Islamic mysticism with the Eastern teachings of Hinduism, Taoism, and Buddhism, showing their common roots and comparing their sacred texts...
They go on to show how this "Ageless Wisdom" of the East was further spread thanks to the Parliament of World Religions in Chicago, who brought Indian Gurus to the west. The book goes on to speak of the role of Rudolf Steiner and his founding of the Anthroposophical Society in 1913, in Germany, The Agni Yoga society that "presented the teaching of "Living Ethics" a synthesis of all the forms of yoga from philosophical to physical", and Alice Bailey and the organizations she founded (Arcane and Lucis Trust).
They then tell us that an "American expression" of Ageless Wisdom is called New Thought, which emphasizes "the healing power of the mind" and which emerged with the work of Phineas Parkhurst Quimby, Mary Baker Eddy, Myrtle, and Charles Filmore, Ernest Holmes and others who, as the book says "founded various related churches that have grown in popularity today: Christian Science, Religious Science, Divine Science, Unity and Initarian Churches".
