The Great Synthesisof Some of the Best Spiritual Organizations on Earth
Welcome to
Some of the Best Spiritual Organizations
and Educational Methods on Earth
that Give Teachings on the Path of Divine Love,the World Religions, the Ascended Masters,Yoga, Music, Art, and Far More
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. An Open Door of Love

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. ******************************************** New Wisdom University

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.

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
To learn about Google click here: http://www.google.com/intl/en/about.html

A tremendous listing of search engines and far, far more.
Note: There are other search engines or directories, such as:

(Note: If you go to msn.com and do a search for “spiritual
