Drawn Up into the Mantle of the Prophet

Having glimpsed that reality which shone forth from him, I closed my eyes and I began to meditate. And while I was meditating I noticed a tremendous power. It was his aura. I was feeling an energy and a forcefield that I had never felt. By that time I had had a co-op job working at the United Nations, meeting thousands of people, and meeting hundreds of them personally every day, traveling around the world studying, going to all kinds of religious groups and teachers and places. I had never met an individual who, when I entered their aura, emitted such an energy. And in the course of meditating I found myself being drawn up into the mantle of a prophet.

A mantle is the symbol of an individual’s light or attainment, like the robe of Christ or the mantle of Elijah that fell on Elisha. And that’s just what it felt like. I was being swept up into the garment of his soul.

And it was a spiral that was taking me to another plane of consciousness until I found myself standing with Mark Prophet—looking into galaxies of light, being shown how science and religion are one, how there’s a fiery core, a permanent atom, a Great Central Sun (which we’ve never even glimpsed from this point in cosmos), and galaxies of light revolving around it. I could see energy moving. I could see energy as a rotation of being, of the polarity of God, masculine and feminine polarity.

And he showed me how energy as a principle becomes personified in the manifestation of individuality, individuality at all different levels of being—Elohim, archangels, seraphim, cherubim, solar hierarchies and, finally, closer to earth, ascended masters, people like you and me who were simply a little bit brighter, a little bit more illumined. They had transcended this plane. They had overcome the problem of death and disease.

And then finally he showed me with his hand a group of souls just like myself. They were yet to take embodiment. They were the group that I had come from. They had not yet resolved the problem of being. They were scheduled to take embodiment East and West in all religions and cultures.

They had one thing in common, this group of individuals: they knew who they were. They knew where they had come from. They knew where they had lived before. They understood the sine wave of our evolutions in Spirit and Matter planes, in and out of the mansions of God or in and out of the atoms, “man’s ions” of consciousness. And so they understood cosmic law. They understood energy and they knew why they were embodying. They were embodying to keep a flame of freedom at all levels of human endeavor.

And then he turned, Mark Prophet, and he showed me another group of souls. These were already in embodiment and they appeared on the screen of consciousness like little candle flames. And they were here and there and everywhere, in all of the nations and religions of the world. And I looked at them and they were my brothers and sisters. I knew them right away.

And then he drew me in close, giving me a close-up reading of their auras and their minds and what they were thinking. And he showed me something that was the most startling revelation. They had come out of those planes of consciousness, and yet they had forgotten who they were, where they had come from, the whole understanding of cosmic law and its outworking. They had even forgotten that they had a mission, that they’d made a vow to God to serve the world community. And I looked and I saw well- meaning parents and teachers at every economic level through the nations. And I saw very clearly that they were not able to pass on to their children what they themselves did not know.

And so there was the dilemma of the centuries, the dilemma of the age, the dilemma of the transition from Pisces to Aquarius in the midst of the buildup of nuclear power East and West and the uses and abuses of that power in all forms. And there were the people who, within their subconscious and superconscious minds, had the key, and yet it was not being passed.
