LET THIS BE A CLEAR SETTING-FORTH of the manner in which true light workers and all members of and representatives for the I Am Nation on Earth think, create and work in all aspects of our roles and missions for the hierarchal plan and program.
There are those, of mortal consciousness primarily, who in that consciousness presume to tell God and His agents or light forces of the Christ consciousness how to deal with unawakened man of Earth. Much could be discussed concerning these two extremely divergent ways of thinking and acting, but since truth needs no defense, only the brief essentials of the proper method will be presented.
True workers of light do not employ the denouncement method of indiscriminate attack against persons, organizations or concepts. Never will anyone see or hear any such attack by a master.
This does not mean in any sense that workers of the light do not seek out and eliminate error wherever it is discovered and whenever it is within the function of their work. But we use pronouncement of light and truth principles, which is the proper, constructive method to be used and taught by all forces of light, rather than the destructive methods practiced consciously or unconsciously by many.
What would Christ Jesus of Nazareth (known also as Sananda, the Prince of Peace and Love, and who is the spiritual ruler of the planet Earth) say and do concerning the elimination of error conditions which prevail throughout the world today? His way has remained ever the same. Here is what he delivered through Nada-Yolanda of Mark-Age on July 10, 1962:
“It is necessary to speak and to act in a spiritual consciousness that has with it a higher form of control and guidance than anything to be done, said or presented in physical manners or means. Your whole purpose is not to work from physical levels into spiritual understanding, but to bring about a spiritual realization that will effect a material result. So I, as well as others working in this field and aspect of control, wish to remind you of your responsibilities and to direct your thoughts to bringing about this desired result.
“Should there be in your minds any doubt of what we speak of here, let me assure you of abortive attempts previously made on this plane and planet for thousands of years, to verify your truth in these matters. I am not content with the agents working in these fields, because they so easily slip into the opposite or negative respect for what they have vouchsafed to do before incarnating upon this plane for the present cycle of evolution.
“We cannot work with denouncement, but only with pronouncement of what we desire in the result aspect. Therefore, as proponents of the light we must pronounce that light and prospect the light all through our entire existence.”
Sananda here uses a tool frequently employed by the masters of the etheric: a play of sound or words. To strengthen his meaning, he plays with the prefix pro-, which means to be for something; or, as it would be used in the word professional, one who is a master of his subject.
Eliminate the Negative
In his statement the master coordinator for the planet’s evolvement into Christ-conscious awareness speaks forth clearly and plainly for all who have eyes to see, ears to hear and inclination to act in truth. He reminds all that history repeatedly has shown the futility of seeking to effect lasting and proper results by using only physical or mental counterattacks against that which is error, no matter what or where. The only acceptable and permanent corrective measure is to employ spiritual methods, bringing down into the material world these spiritual concepts of truth to replace those which are not truth, and thus not of reality.
How consuming and ineffective have been the countless attempts to combat non-reality, that which has not its base in spiritual truth; rather than to ignore such non-truth (although not to be unaware of its transitory appearance and need to be eliminated). Concentrate on bringing forth truth. Where has man’s focus of attention been: in eliminating that which is not desired, or in bringing forth that which is real, is truth and is desirable?
Sananda further has pointed out the dangers inherent in the denouncement method of seeking to ferret out error. Many spiritual workers, who came not to participate in this necessary elimination phase, as well as countless others who are not so evolved and do not know the law involved, have fallen victim to the error they sought to fight. For to whatsoever we give our attention, that we tend to bring about. The light workers came at this time to demonstrate and to bring forth the light, the truth, the reality of spiritual law.
The higher the evolvement in spiritual understanding, the greater the degree of manifestation or creating of that which we think; for to think is to create. Therefore, it behooves all who have developed this power of thought to a high degree to use it to see, and therefore to bring forth, only that which is desired, not that which is to be eliminated. To think or to dwell upon the error conditions, of which we certainly are aware, is to strengthen them.
There are those workers in the present program to bring about Christ-conscious awareness on this planet whose function and purpose are to combat errors, whatever and wherever they are, on those levels. But allow them to fulfill their work on their level of understanding and evolvement, without forfeiting the higher training and understanding of those who are of the light, who teach the light and who are to bring forth the light. Each to his own mission.
Give God and His agents full credit not only for knowing present, as well as past and future, conditions of man and of Earth; but also for knowing how to bring about the divine plan and for having absolute power to bring it forth. Those agents whose work it is to bring about the destruction of error do so constructively, using spiritual understanding and methods, working in at-onement with other forces of Spirit that build up what is good and replace what is not.
Evolution Not Revolution
God works by evolution, not by revolution. God is love, not hate. God does not wantonly destroy that which is good just to eliminate that which is of error. The purpose of evolution is to keep what is good and to add to it, while eliminating what is not desirable. To this purpose is Mark-Age dedicated in all things throughout the world and the affairs of man. That which has merit shall be emphasized and shall be encouraged, while that which is not of truth will be replaced constructively and surely.
There are many constructive criticisms, pointings-out of error thinking, actions and methods. This analysis is a sample of such. But in Christlike manner of correction, we state the spiritual principle involved and throw the light on the less-than-perfect manifestation of it in an individual, in an organization or in an idea.
It is by these ways and means that true light workers throughout the world bring about the necessary evolutionary changes within the scope of the divine plan for the harvest period of the Latter Days. This is the preparation that includes both the total elimination of that which is not spiritual and the manifestation of that which is spiritual, for the return of the ruler of this planet, Jesus of Nazareth.
As representatives of the Christ forces, we must use whatever form of divine power is deemed proper by Spirit and the agents of Spirit who constitute the Hierarchy of this solar system. But always the method of bringing about changes for spiritual purposes will be that of pronouncement: the speaking of the positive word as love in action.
God’s creations, including man, are constantly in a state of evolutionary change toward greater manifestation of His glory. Therefore, we must not think man’s creations are exempt from such perfecting changes. All that exists on the physical Earth today is being changed for higher manifestation for the Golden Age.
That which is not of a certain divinely prescribed standard of spiritual value and potential will not be allowed to manifest on the Earth after the Second Coming. So, it behooves all who sincerely wish and work for the elimination of error from Earth today to recognize that it is God’s plan and purpose to effect the necessary changes.
Let Go & Let God
The next step is to accept the reality that God also knows how and when to bring about all necessary steps in this plan. Therefore, what is really needed by man, acting as the expresser of God on this plane, is to turn to Spirit and the agents of Spirit for the necessary plans and procedures to eliminate that which is decreed by Spirit to go, and to bring forth that which is to come.
Sometimes the concentration on bringing forth the desired and decreed manifestation automatically effects the elimination of that which is not of truth. We are agreed there is an overabundance of error thinking and conditions on the planet. This also means there is a tremendous shortage of light workers and light projects demonstrating what is to replace the error situations once we successfully have eliminated them. Light workers must see and be, so that what they see will be.
To support this positive, cooperative and spiritual evolutionary policy, let us pledge constructive support of all those individuals, organizations and programs that truly seek to manifest the two basic rules for the Golden Age: Love God and Love One Another.
Where there are good policies we shall support them. Where there is need for change we also shall speak and shall act for such; with and in love, giving forth the constructive or positive aspect, rather than denouncing to eliminate the negative aspect, all within the scope of our powers and our missions.
We support those governments and those organizations of religious, spiritual, educational and research nature, including churches, that, to the best of their understandings and abilities, desire to work for and to establish God’s will and to eliminate man’s tyranny over man. This list is by no means intended to be complete, nor is blanket approval meant for all individuals and actions within such organizations or groups.
We serve Spirit only, in whomever and whatever Spirit is able to bring forth Its plans. So we see it, so be it. We give our thanks for the glorious opportunity to participate in this planet’s peaceful transition from a third dimensional or physical manifestation into a fourth dimensional or mental-spiritual understanding and expression of life.
Project Power
Here are the basic metaphysical steps followed by Mark-Age associates in sending forth light where there is error; or, as we call it, projecting power and love:
PRAY WITHOUT CEASING. This means to think positively at all times. In order to prepare the way for such continual positive thinking, one must eliminate all negative thinking from one’s own total consciousness, which includes both the conscious and the subconscious. When dwelling on or entertaining negative thoughts, one is not able to receive positive thoughts from Spirit or the agents of Spirit, which includes one’s own Christ or spiritual Self. You cannot think both positively and negatively on the same subject at the same time, so choose this day, and each day, which you will serve.
It has been said many times in many ways that peace must begin with the individual. There is a well-known inspired song that beautifully expresses this: “Let There Be Peace on Earth; Let It Begin with Me.” So, the first step toward the use of pronouncement is to eliminate the error in one’s own thinking. For truly is the War of Armageddon now being waged. But it is a mental war, with the battleground being in the thoughts of men.
Let each one, therefore, concentrate first, although not exclusively so, upon clearing out the error in one’s own cities, governments and organizations: the groups of thoughts within one’s own consciousness. When peace has been established in one’s own earth, then the crusade can be carried forth from a base of operations which will remain impregnable and calm regardless of the enemy camps into which one sends forth his thought soldiers.
BE LOVE. This is the primary weapon of all light workers and does not wait for peace to be established first. Error cannot withstand divine love, the love of God for each and all of His creations. This love is always within man, ever ready for his use. One need not seek it, define it or manufacture it; love is. Always existing within man and always ready to pour forth at his direction, it surmounts any and all obstacles.
Without using it, man not only is ineffective in eliminating error and in bringing forth that which is of Spirit, but he also is unprepared to cope with the weapons that those of negative intent, be they individuals or forces, turn against him. He easily falls into defeat, or is most subtly and insidiously manipulated so as to become a tool and an advocate of that which he started out to fight.
Therefore, become skilled in the use of the divinely given armor and weapon: love. The principle on which the ascended masters of the spiritual government of our solar system carry out the plans of Spirit is love in action. Make this yours also.
THY WILL, NOT MINE, BE DONE. One of man’s functions as cocreator with God is, when he sees imbalance or error, to use his right and duty to ask Creative Spirit that proper balance be restored to that individual or situation, resulting in divine order and harmony according to the will of God. Many times what one decrees in this manner will not come to pass as he thinks it should, but when one has fulfilled the function of asking for balance to be restored according to the will of God, one must let it so manifest. Let go and let God.
Within God’s plan it may be that you are to do something further; then it will come to your attention. It may or may not be that you are to be an instrument in the bringing forth of the proper outcome. Never dilute pronouncements by indulging in negative thoughts or actions or seeking to take the initiative from God.
Study the Lord’s Prayer; it contains the seven basic steps for perfect harmony and balance on Earth as they are in heaven. Practice the Golden Rule: Do to others as you would have them do to you. At all times enact the two commandments for entry into the Golden Age upon Earth: Love God and Love One Another. Be love in action.

Should it seem strange that we speak of the cleansing of Christ consciousness, let me remind you that until the very last moment the son of God who was Jesus, and is only one son, as you are, had been helped, reminded and torn by these same doubts and needs when he too had to bring about the final demonstration and culmination of his entire soul mission, nearly two thousand years ago, upon the Earth. That we who knew him then, worked with him then, stood by him then, even ourselves doubted and wondered why he had to be taken through that is proof enough unto you that such is required of you, and shall be many times, before the end of this time cycle.
You are required to use the blueprint set forth by him who is Sananda, but who lived many lives in order to fulfill that mission as Prince of this planet. Yours is, as the chorus in that orchestra, to bring it about consciously, simultaneously and in unison. While he is the solo part and the primary factor and instrument in God’s plan for Earth, you are the backup team, the orchestration that shall repeat the theme and bring it to its beautiful and wonderful climax that God has decreed and seen fit for this place and this time and this solar logos. . . .
Many of you were with us in those days of the time when Jesus walked his last years upon the Earth planet in that particular form and frequency. Many of us are on the etheric and continue to fulfill that same demonstration and part in the role he has been assigned and has accepted. Many others are now upon the Earth and remember this . . . and see it occurring in the demonstrations of their lives today. . . .
For until that approach has been reached and desired in the minds of men, the hearts of men cannot be opened. For it is definitely the mind that accepts and the heart that produces it. You have been told that the mind represents the male aspect within you and the heart represents the female aspect within you, or positive and negative polarities. Therefore, let the positive polarity, which is the Father in you, bring forth the seed of this idea and let it be nourished by the negative polarity, or the Mother-heart self, and come forth into manifestation. Let burst forth the son of man. Let God be born on Earth as a whole unit: mankind Christed and brought forth in these Latter Days as a worthy Son of God, the body of Christ.
However, it is in the cleansing stage when all of this, in certain aspect, has to be reviewed. . . . The facts must go through the consciousness of mankind in order for him to separate that which is good and that which is error. As each man, and as the race as a whole, reviews these various acts and experiences from the beginning unto the present time, he must learn to judge each act; for this is the Christ judgment. Man must raise himself up into his Christ being and say: “This is of good and this is of error; this I will promote, and this I will eliminate and return unto the void from which it came.” This must be done by each soul in the evolutionary process, and especially in these Latter Days.
Let me put it in a very simple Earth plane term by saying that you have amongst your schoolchildren places of a very high achievement that you introduce them to in order that they be excited or stimulated by the future possibilities of that growth. You take them into museums and into places of worship and into places of execution, or of government, where they may see the workings of these higher methods and of these higher plans that they may understand them. But as each soul walks through or participates in any place or touches any other soul, he leaves something of himself there; just as a bee touching a flower is carrying pollen from one to another. It attaches itself. He leaves a vibration of his own upon the flower he wishes to impregnate, and he takes with him something of the flower to the next place upon which he alights.
You may not take the history of one race, of one religion, of one nation and separate it from the history of all other nations, religions and civilizations. It is not possible. Nor can you separate the history of this planet from the history of this solar system. . . . The history of this solar system is but a mystery and an unknown quantity to the average person and to the majority of those who are upon the planet; though it will be brought forth by those who come from other spheres, other places, other dimensions and other planets, in due time during the Latter Days. . . . This is essential to your understanding and evolution. For you must see your interrelationship with the other planets in the solar system and your interrelationship and intertwining of dimensions with those who evolve and who have incarnation and expression through other spheres and planes of action.
“A main purpose of the Hierarchy’s program for this Latter-Day period is to give you the standards, the qualifications, the requirements, the needs, the spiritual laws in effect for this planet, for all mankind upon it, and for all the other kingdoms which reside on the planet. These teachings and guidelines are given so you will judge fairly and discern clearly where you are and what you must do in order to help lift all men into spiritual consciousness for the coming of the fourth dimensional frequency vibration. . . .
First and foremost I ask only that the Christ Self of the other person reveal to my Christ Self, Nada, what the truth is in the matter and how to correct any error. Often what seems weak actually is strong; what seems wrong really has been the righting of a wrong; what seems to be a violation or an aggression actually is retribution for a past action, perhaps even worse than what is presently inflicted. God always is good and merciful.
In reviewing our evolutionary history we can see the thread of golden Christ consciousness that the light workers have woven on Earth from the beginning till now. Between 206 million and 26 million years ago the Elder race, or golden giants, were expressing in fourth dimensional, light-body consciousness. They enjoyed interdimensional and interplanetary travel, past-life recall, and other light-body talents. I Am Self expression or natural, spiritual way of living was embedded in the very fabric of the Earth.
What did Jesus do? He healed the sick; raised the dead; walked on water; commanded the elements; recalled and projected (was transfigured by) past incarnations; teleported; materialized and dematerialized, and more. He demonstrated love of God and love of one another to its fullest. He triumphed through death of the mortal to resurrected life in Christ consciousness.
On June 25, 1968, Sananda channeled this key to anchoring the light body: “The I Am consciousness is in effect wherever men will give it that place of honor in their experience and in their lives. This spiritual know-how and realization then become the actual fact of existence. That form that develops from these thoughts and desires and dedications builds up in and around the focal point a pivotal function through the conscious and physical body.
But where you are given functions and responsibilities you cannot shirk them. So, it is to you now that we turn and say: this is the hour; the time has come for all that you have learned, and all the experience that you have accepted as being good, to come forth and to manifest its achievements. What and how these works will be given for you to perform are not outlined in advance, nor can they ever be. For the situation that arises gives the need, and it also brings forth the power. What you must do is to be aware of all situations that require change and cleansing upon the Earth and in yourselves for the moment.
So, each one who has been aware consciously of this program and of this plan to uplift all men upon the planet into spiritual consciousness must go to work about our Father’s business immediately. It is up to you to tune in to your own individual Christ Self to find where and how this can be accomplished. We are not outlining your function. That is not our job, any more than it will be your job to go forth upon the planet and say to this individual and to that one: this you must do in order to become a more perfect individual, to demonstrate your Sonship in the God consciousness.
Now all men everywhere have been given this information. We must have a multiple demonstration of this same principle in order for it to grow and to expand. For nothing in Spirit is static; all things forever are being expanded. Your own consciousness, for one, is being expanded. Therefore, Spirit’s good is expanded unto all Its creations, and multiplied over and over again. There is no end to creation or to God’s power and love. This, of course, you understand in generalities and in parable. But now will you execute this very simple proclamation and bring it into manifested form? For it is not enough for God the Father to give the idea; but God the Mother must bring it forth and God the Son must live it. This is your function and your purpose. That which is of Good, God, is good for all, not just a few.
Let us see these greater or expanded works begin. Let us know that we are one in the Christ body and have each other to support one another. Let us know that we all are sons of God and that each one has the same ability to receive and to demonstrate the powers that any other one has done. This is the heritage which I have left. This is my gift unto men of Earth. But I cannot return and say that I will open the gift and use the gift if you are not willing to take it yourselves.
However, those who have brought forth ideas or concepts that were of a spiritual nature, that were derived from the mental aspects or mind concepts rooted in and received from the spiritual nature of the universe, have left indelible marks upon the race consciousness, and upon the pattern of racial structure, in its everlasting growth and evolvement process. If this be the case, and the proof already is there, then why not heed the example that is set forth via this? Why continue to waste time and energy by doing things backwards and upside down and inside out? If this is the pattern that has been set down and is obvious to any thinking individual, then why continue to stir up the situation by putting forth only physical energies or combining physical energies with some proper feeling that does not resolve itself in the essential mental activity and consciousness that go behind it?
Think negative things about it and you add further problems and weight and troubles to the situation that exists perhaps thousands of miles from you. Think positive, constructive, loving and bountiful thoughts about it and you begin to sway and to change and to rebalance the scale as it is analyzing that which is going on those thousands of miles away from you. Add to those thoughts the proper feeling, the feeling of love, the feeling of upliftment, the feeling of union, the feeling of peace, the feeling of enjoyment, the feeling of good, and the thoughts have that much more energy to work with in that situation. If then you are guided and put in the position where certain actions on your part are required in that situation, though it be thousands of miles away, you know that you have given it the proper thought, the right emotions; therefore, the actions in themselves must be correct for that situation in which you become involved.
We are the spiritual government, you might call it, of this hierarchal plan. A spiritual government is that which is governed by Spirit and governs for Spirit. So be assured, when we use this terminology, that it has this definition in your thoughts predominantly. Those of us who are guiding and guarding you to become part of that spiritual government are concerned that you understand that everyone is part and can be part and participate in the hierarchal system of Spirit’s plan for man.
So, what does all this lead us to conclude? These rapid and oftentimes jarring changes have caused us here at headquarters to renew our deep and abiding spiritual commitment to I Am thinking, speaking and acting. This is our key to survival — spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically — in these horrendous Latter Days.
If you were incarnated, where were you when this happened, and what were you doing? Think back. Do you remember exactly how you responded? What were your first thoughts and emotions? How quickly did you respond with the proper spiritual treatment? Were you too stunned to react spiritually, or did you immediately start sending out thoughts of protection, balance, understanding, love, compassion and peace?
Next, let’s expand our thoughts to others, whether our family, friends, work associates or others. Are we sensitive to their needs? Are we a positive force in their lives, helping them to secure their own commitments to spiritual demonstration? Or, are we so caught up in our own world that we haven’t taken that extra bit of effort to find out how our neighbor is doing?
When it comes to personal dilemmas, impasses, conflicts, imperfections, diseases of the mind, body or soul where the individual is involved or trapped, he or she at times neglects to understand and to apply this mandatory principle of Let go and let God.
Unless the person has worked on this conscientiously and without results for years in meditation and dream analysis, we invariably insist that he or she receive the guidance and the information directly from within. If our higher Selves reveal that an objective confirmation is in order through our I Am intunements, then we cooperate; otherwise we appeal silently to the I Am within the other person to break through the barrier to the subconscious or the conscious aspects of mind.
spiritual teachings and demonstrations to the people of Israel. Evidence had been brought against Jesus, but he had remained silent. Finally, in exasperation, Caiaphas demanded Jesus’ oath by the living God: “Are you the Christ, the Son of God?”
Astral plane thinking and living are merely the residue of unfinished business between lives of Earth plane living. This applies to every planet in our solar system. Some naturally are much more advanced than those of astral dimensions concerning the Earth planet, since the Earth planet is so low on the rung of evolvement for the souls of man throughout eternity. By no means is it the lowest; but for our solar system it is among the lowest.
