It is a linen cloth 14 feet 3 inches long by 3 feet 7 inches wide,
bearing the highly distinct Image of a Crucified Man.
Since the sixteenth century the Shroud,
believed by many to be the burial cloth of Christ,
has been kept in St. John the Baptist Cathedral in Turin, Italy.
From August until October 2000, the Shroud was displayed publicly
for the last timein Turin, Italy. The previous public exhibition
was in 1998 and, prior to that, 1978 and even before that, 1933, 1931, and 1898.



"Thus, you see, the Word has a way of communicating itself to you despite the discrepancy between the teacher and the pupil.

"This is a miracle on the face of it, when you come to think of it. It is a result of interpenetration of magnetic fields and electromagnetic currents. It is a meshing of teacher and pupil.

"There are some who will never be convinced that the Shroud of Turin is the image of the Lord Christ! These so-called scientists are filled with doubt. They are like water bags of doubt. When punctured, it would all come out and they would be no more. For their total identity is doubt, more doubt, and self-doubt! And then they make their pronouncements of doubt as though they were the empirical method of science itself.

"Well, beloved hearts, there are some who can never see beyond or feel beyond the physical person—whether of the messenger, whether of a loved one, whether of anything from a blade of grass to a star. How can you expect them to mesh with the Word or desire the Guru, who obviously is taking you into spirals passing through your own nonphysical matrix leading to universes of light that are still a part of your very own Being?

"Thus, those who assemble to hear our Word are those not content with the physical grid of Life they use to navigate in the physical octave. They are probers of the mysteries of the octaves above and below and through the sound ray to the soundless sound.

"The hierarchy of light, the Buddhas, bodhisattvas, and masters of the wisdom ray are pleased with the expanded capacity of the mind of Christ within the chelas of the Great White Brotherhood that has occurred in this fourteen-month cycle.

"We see that you are wiser for our teaching, wiser for your experiences in testing the teaching, challenging and then proving the Law—as the Law will prove itself to you, as the Law will never be offended if you challenge it and say, 'Show me, Lord! I believe. Help thou mine unbelief! Show me the proof of thy Word.'

"When you ask for proof, be not surprised how it come. Come it will. And if you are objective and free, nonprejudiced, you will have to go where proof leads you. But if you are narrow-minded and bigoted and close your eyes to blatant reality, fearing what will be required of you and your compromise of Life—then, blessed hearts, beware. For the karma of closing your eyes to the proof of Truth which stands before you is spiritual blindness followed by physical blindness in this or a succeeding incarnation.

"Karma is instantaneous. Take care, then. Be honest in your interaction with the ascended masters and we will be honest with you. Above all, do not trifle with the Great Law. Do not play with fire—as your mothers have already taught you. The same rules apply. Yet we are in ongoing dimensions of Life."

Lord Maitreya

"Therefore, I look to the other sheep. I look to the individual soul of light. And this is my temple and this is my Church—where the living Christ can dwell in the purified temple where the soul dwells who has the courage to be and to walk in my footsteps and not to compromise for the sake of power, which compromise has descended, lo, these two thousand years in the distortion of my teaching and my doctrine!

"Therefore, let the exposure come to pass! And let it be known that this image of myself which I have released through the artist Charles Sindelar is indeed the very same image that you will find on the Shroud of Turin, and it is unmistakable.


Jesus by Charles Sindelar

"And therefore, you will know that I have appeared to many saints throughout the ages. And I have spoken through many messengers who have appeared to deliver, by the miracle of the Holy Spirit, the healing light, the gift of wisdom, and the teaching of the way. And I have sealed unto this witness the understanding of each one’s own God-reality, and none shall tear it from my own!

"For those who are called of the Father will know me as I AM and will not have the power to distort me or my name or my image or my presence. For I AM yet the Good Shepherd and I stand with every disciple on earth who is true to the calling of the Son of God! And those who are yet weak I strengthen when they pray and when they acknowledge that Universal Christ, not alone in me but as the divine image out of which they also were made.

"Therefore, O Father, hear my plea! For I do send, now, for the twelve legions of angels to go forth and save my own in every nation, those who have not been supported by courageous ones who should have long ago risen out of the Church and out of the governments of the nations!

" . . . If indeed those governments are upon the shoulder of the Christ, then let the representatives go forth for the rescue! And let my own dare to challenge now this power elite who have sat where Pilate has sat, who have sat in the place of Caesar, who have sat in the place of the Sanhedrin!

"And they have judged my children. Therefore, let their judgment be upon their own head. For inasmuch as ye have done it unto the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me!"

Jesus Christ


"I come in anticipation of our celebration of the resurrection. I come beforehand to establish a pillar of that resurrection fire here upon this altar. Let no staff, then, cross this step or stand where the Messenger stands until the fulfilling of the purpose of this flame on Easter Sunday.

"Therefore, beloved, know that heaven—Alpha himself, the blessed Father—desires to increase day by day your assimilation of resurrection’s fires. Understand, then, the meaning of the Flame of the Resurrection. Understand, then, the meaning of the penetration of the rainbow rays of God accelerating as a bubbling fountain, a life-giving force, an energizing force.

"Understand that the resurrection flame is a flame of the awakening, awakening then that must come to the heart of each one. All that is in thee must be awakened, must be brought to the surface.

"God has sent me with this flame this day because ye are able to bear it, because Christ in you is awakened. Truth is awakened first. And as the Messengers have held the balance against the day of the awakening of the carnal mind, so you have prospered and increased in love and in your witness of Truth.

"Now cometh the hour when resurrection’s fires must also awaken in you that awareness of the sleeping serpent—on the one hand, the dweller on the threshold, the anti-self; on the other hand, the life-force, the sacred fire out of the base-of-the-spine chakra.

"These are most powerful energies. The energy of eternal Life ascending in the temple is the calling of the Lord and of the Mother. It demands obedience and submission unto all of the flowers of the chakras, for the life-force makes permanent that which it contacts.

"Therefore, the sleeping serpent of the dweller on the threshold must first be awakened and bound in the name I AM THAT I AM by the soul who is clothed upon with his own Christ Self. With the binding, then, of this not-self and the accumulation of its works in the coil of the electronic belt, there may then transpire the awakening of the sleeping serpent of the coiled Kundalini, the life-force itself.

"May I remind you that this is the path of the ascended masters and of the ascension. This is not the path of the false gurus of the East who create, out of sensation and a yoga that is not lawful, a sexual activity and attempt to raise that life-force without the Holy Spirit but only by the stimulation of the chakras, stimulating the energy to rise when the attainment is not there.

"You will discover, beloved hearts, that those who pursue this left-handed path then use that life-force to endow the dweller on the threshold with permanence. These are the dark ones, and their seeming power is the misuse of the ascension flame to give immortality to the human ego. This, beloved ones, is the means whereby those on the left-handed path, the black magicians themselves, do gain the ability to work their works.

"Understanding then the mystery, all the more, little ones, ought you to run unto the Lord to be hidden in the garments of the Christ, to run to the beloved Christ Self and desire above all else union with that Christ, who will bring to you chastening and outer turmoil and persecution and direct knowledge with the hatred of this world. But that Christ will not awaken in you the Kundalini until you are sealed in the alchemical marriage of the Christ of your being.

" . . . See to it, then, for the mighty threefold flame within you, your mighty Christ, your I AM Presence is able to subdue even the manipulation of this light of Alpha and Omega. And as Saint Germain, my brother and my father, has told you, they will pay fully for every misuse of the science of God and the alchemy of his Word. Therefore does he sound the warning in his Studies in Alchemy that the science may never, never be misused with impunity.

"Beware, then, the magnetism of the aura of those fallen angels who walk by the power of the misuse of the base of the spine [chakra], who even claim to take dictations from me by this power and these distorted sexual practices.

"Blessed ones of the Light, in the mastery you gain in the divine order which I have taught this day, you will discover that there is no need for Tantric Yoga. For when you raise the Kundalini fire, it is not by the sexual practices but by the lodestone of your Mighty I AM Presence, by Christ in your heart who is the magnet for the consummation of that fire in the crown of Life. And this fire is for the Deathless Solar Body, and it is the ascension flame.

"In the name of Serapis Bey, I charge you, then, to give your calls upon those individuals and movements this day that would sweep the light-bearers out of the path of the Great White Brotherhood in America and other nations by the popularity of these ancient practices of the dark ones!

" . . . Therefore, take care that you do not, through sympathy, enter in anew into those associations which we have freed you from in these hours of your path. But move upward and receive, then, the joy of the resurrection flame. For this flame shall be unto you the quickening of light, the quickening of all momentums of God’s goodness, God’s attainment within you, until your strength is one with the strength of Christ.

"And when you feel it and when you know it, then watch and pray; for the next awakening will be of the dweller. And thus, beforehand begin to pronounce the judgment I have given you this day that he might be significantly reduced even before he is awakened. Thus, there are strategies of light, you see, even as there are strategies in darkness.

"And finally, when you have gotten that victory over the beast, the awakening will be of the ascension flame rising within you. And then you will know the meaning of the conquering ones —not the pride of those who condemn and condemn and condemn our Messengers and our disciples worldwide. They know not the heart of our servant. They know not the heart of the chela.

"I know your hearts, beloved. I know your hearts. Fear not, for I know your love. But only be concerned that that which sets itself against thy heart from beneath be taken and bound and cast into the fire by your conscious will, by your conscious devotion, before it put upon you any further burden.

"Why do you suppose, blessed ones, there is the failing of men’s hearts for fear? It is because the heart becomes burdened by the toxic waste, if you will, the substance misqualified in the caldron of the electronic belt, and it rises against the heart chakra and the physical heart. And instead of pouring forth the balm of Gilead in Christ through that heart, instead of discovering the divine nectar of the crown by the union of the life-force of Alpha and Omega, instead of the violet flame, these individuals go after heart surgery, heart transplants—as though they could create a heart of life and of God.

"What a pity, so much striving to discover the mechanical means to ascend, blessed ones —almost uncomprehensible! Yet more’s the pity, this is all they have to hope for—the mechanical manipulation of life—hoping against all hope, indeed, that by material science alone they shall discover the fount of youth, they shall meet the mighty youth Sanat Kumara or somehow know the state of grace. And how they suffer in their striving for their physical perfection!"

Jesus Christ
March 13, 1983


"And we stand in this hour—many ascended masters and those beyond the veil and angelic beings of mighty power—with the Lord Jesus Christ to reinforce his mission and his work and to bring to all who have followed him, finally and fully, the purest teaching of his Sacred Heart that the stone may be rolled away from the tomb and the stumbling stone of a false theology now rolled away by the power of the risen Christ and the resurrection fire!

"Therefore we dedicate ourselves, as you dedicate your own blessed being, to the success of this mission and, as always, to an experiment in free will. For the receptivity of souls to the person of Christ is always by free will.

"You have seen the results of that free will, lo, these past two thousand years. Therefore, you have a reasonable ability to calculate the responsiveness of the world. Yet it is not the world’s response we seek, but the response of his own—and his own seed and light and his own souls. These beloved ones have been ripening and maturing and walking in the way of some wisdom and certainly a pursuit to know more of the true Light."
