Lightbearers of the World Unite!

Spiritual Organizations of the World Unite!

Love is the Way! Love is the Key!

          There is one God, and four major paths to the One God, which are: the path of divine love, the world religions, the teachings of the ascended masters, and yoga.

          These four major paths to God may be combined in any way we like.

       God has given each of us free will, and each of us may choose what is right for us.

          A list is given below of various organizations that generally combine two or three, or all four of these paths to God. This list can be considered to be The Great Synthesis or Great Integration of some of the best spiritual organizations on Earth. In more common terms, it is the "Great Gathering" of some of the best spiritual organizations.

          The purpose of the following list is also to help promote a unity of these organizations and the lightbearers in them. It is important that we work together in a cooperative and complimentary Christ Love or Buddha Love to help bring in the Golden Age. Hopefully, the following list will promote love, understanding and unity between these organizations and the lightbearers or lightworkers in them.

          It is important that we have an openness and good discernment as to what is true. It may be good to really look at each of these organizations and see the good in them, and do not judge them, but again use good discernment. There are many beautiful souls of light in each of these organizations, and the more we can work together, the better off we will be, and the more likely we can have a Golden Age.

       Also, it is interesting that if we have an open mind, or have a positive attitude toward an organization, their teachings, and their main teacher or leader, we will generally find good in the teachings; and if we do not have an open mind, or have a negative attitude toward an organization, their teachings, and their main teacher or leader, we will generally not find very much good in the teachings.

       Any set of teachings has a certain degree of accuracy, and it is good that we see what is accurate and let go of the rest. The main thing is that we do not criticize, condemn, or judge an organization or the individuals therein, but at the same time use good discernment.

       The following is a beautiful teaching for us to consider:

       "We all have our eyes fixed on the same goal, and we agree that there is but one summit to reach. Unfortunately we differ on what road to take. Guides come forward and we follow them. Some go one way, others choose different paths. All are convinced that their trail is best, and all are sincere. By following them we approach the one goal, but when the groups which started from different points meet, instead of uniting, they seek to convince each other mutually that it is they who have discovered the best road, and they sometimes end by throwing insults and stones at each other. Yet they know that one day, provided they never stop ascending, they must all meet at the top of the mountain and that the road to reach it matters little." Lecomte du Nouy (from Climb the Highest Mountain by Mark and Elizabeth Clare Prophet)

       Also, one ascended master has said something close to the following: We honor all paths. We decry none. We never condemn. We spur you on -- for your own Higher Self is the teacher or guru of your being. The Presence of Love is here and you are that Presence.

       Here is the list of some of the best spiritual organizations on earth, including some of the best educational methods. This list will be revised and improved as time goes on, and if anyone has any suggestions for improving the list, please email me, William Star.

Teachings from The Hearts Center:

       Beloved ones, there is always new thought, new understanding, and new wisdom.

       May the Buddha be with you.

       Love is the requirement of the hour -- love in many manifestations, dear hearts. For there must be the expression of love through the particular flame that you are and that you bear, if earth is to see a Golden Age. When the golden rule is embodied and practiced fully by a majority of earth's evolutions, you will see the dawn of eternal joy. And God's joy will be reflected through the aperture of self of you as you become God through oneness, through acceptance and through that love that springs eternal as the flame within.

A Teaching from the Temple:

       The Ascended Master Teachings contain the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven that can only be accessed through the Heart. The core of the Ascended Masters' Teachings, as released by Saint Germain, Jesus and all Ascended Masters, is that the One God individualizes as our own I AM Presence. Through a number of lifetimes, each individualization of the I AM Presence gathers more experience around Itself. Through our efforts and constancy, and through the assistance of the Ascended Masters and the Angelic Host, we can eventually regain the memory of our own Divine Identity and manifest the Christ. The Ascended Masters are our elder Brothers and Sisters, Who - through the Victory of the Ascension - are One with Their own I AM Presence.

The Masons

The Freemasons

The Masonic Order

Freemasonry is a fraternity of a splendid camaraderie of "free and accepted" men enjoined to devote themselves to ethical, educational, fraternal, patriotic, and humanitarian concerns.

Freemasonry is kindness in the home, honesty in business, courtesy in society, earnestness in work, compassion and concern for the unfortunate, resistance towards evil, help for the weak, forgiveness for the penitent, love for one another and reverence and love for God.
Freemasonry is many things, but above all, Freemasonry is a way of life.
         Membership is open to all men (and in some cases, women) of integrity and goodwill, irrespective of color or creed, on condition that they profess a belief in a Supreme Being. How they choose to worship Him is up to the individual.

Freemasonry is not a religion, nor is it a substitute for religion. Its essential qualification opens it to men of many religions, and these men may continue to follow their own religion as they choose.

The Three Great Principles:

For many years Freemasons have followed three great principles:

1. Brotherly Love -- Every true Freemason will show tolerance and respect for the opinions of others and behave with kindness and understanding to his fellow creatures.

2. Relief -- Freemasons are taught to practise charity, and to care, not only for their own, but also for the community as a whole, both by charitable giving, and by voluntary efforts and works as individuals.

3. Truth -- Freemasons strive for truth, requiring high moral standards and aiming to achieve them in their own lives.

Freemasons believe that these principles represent a way of achieving higher standards in life.

3.  American Co-Masonry, a Masonic Obedience independent of all others, has not created a new Rite. That which distinguishes it from other existing Obedience's is that, instead of admitting men only to its ranks, it admits women on an equal footing.

HeartMath

The Institute of HeartMath is an innovative research and education organization.
         IHM (Institute of HeartMath), with founder Doc Childre, has developed the HeartMath System which is designed to enable people to decode and employ the intelligence of their heart—a process of unfolding the unused power within yourself.
         Using HeartMath technology, we can learn to bring the heart and brain into synchronization, which is key to achieving new levels of communication, performance, and vitality. This has led to the development of learning programs for improving student relations and academic performance, and to help adults transform stress, anxiety and anger.

A Suggestion of a Yearly Meeting or Conference

        It is suggested that each year, possibly in Chicago, the heart center of America, there could be a meeting or conference of these various organizations, that is, the individuals in these organizations. Or each year the conference could be held at one of the headquarters of these organizations.

        This meeting could be held in August or the weekend associated with Labor Day weekend, which is generally the first weekend in September. 

Much could be learned, and great growth could take place, and a mighty work for the Lord could be done.

Search Engines to Help Us Find More Information

>www.mamma.com

is a "smart" metasearch engine — every time you type in a query, Mamma simultaneously searches a variety of engines, directories, and deep content sites, properly formats the words and syntax for each, compiles their results in a virtual database, eliminates duplicates, and displays them in a uniform manner according to relevance. It's like using multiple search engines, all at the same time.

>www.google.com
