Agni Yoga Series: Helena Roerich on Abortion 1933-1934

 

The ability to discern the real state of things and to see the true colors of people is the basic requirement to enter the Path. ~Helena Roerich

The value of human life in the womb is not, as noted before, a new concept or one embraced only by those of Christian or Orthodox religions.  Before Elizabeth Clare Prophet's teachings on abortion in the late 1900's, were those of Helena Roerich, wife of Nicholas Roerich*, (now the Ascended Master Nicholas Roerich), and the amanuensis for the Master Morya.

Below, are a few teachings on the topic of abortion that can be found in the Agni Yoga Series. Considering that they are just a decade shy of being a century old, if you did not know the date of their publication, you might think you were reading something from a contemporary spiritual or esoteric organization.

Letters of Helena Roerich I

Letters I, 19 June 1933

And now let us turn to the subject of abortion. To deal with this problem now is quite timely. There appear currently the most disgusting articles about it and some of them are written with the approval of the clergy. On this subject I shall quote some paragraphs from the Teaching:

“The spirit is connected with the embryo at the moment of conception. It begins to enter in the beginning of the fourth month when the first nerve and brain channels are being formed. The formation of the vertebral column brings in the next degree of possession of the body. Wonderful is the moment of birth, when the consciousness of the spirit flashes up brightly and then blends with matter. There are even cases when words are pronounced at birth. The final possession of the body takes place at the seventh year of a child’s life.” It is also said, “Even as hunger directs toward food, so the spirit is directed toward incarnation, as only matter can give the new impulses.”

Therefore, it is not hard to imagine how much suffering the spirit that is ready to incarnate endures from the forced interruption of life already begun, or from the averting of an incarnation even planned by karma. What a difficult karma the ignorant and criminal parents prepare for themselves!

Letters 1, 17 April 1934

3. You mentioned a most painful problem of today’s life—the question of the legality of abortion. Of course, there are no two opinions on this subject: abortion is most definitely murder. Therefore, only in cases where the mother’s life is in danger should it take place. But it is wrong to think that a woman who is guilty of abortion always attracts low spirits. The karma of the whole family should be taken into consideration. Often we can notice that in a family where one of the children is worthless the other children are not bad. Karma ties groups of people for long, long thousands of years. And often, even a high spirit has not unimpeachable, irreproachable parents. And it is significant that the dark forces are especially against the reincarnation of highly developed spirits, and they try their best to prevent the reincarnations that are dangerous for them. And, once more, it is not the purgatory of the Subtle World that prevents spirits from reincarnating, but only the crime of the parents. There is not a more powerful purgatory than the earthly life, if all the potentialities of the individuality are intensified. It is said in the Teaching, “As the one who hungers longs for food, even so, the spirit that is ready to incarnate longs for the new incarnation.” Therefore, one can imagine what suffering the spirit undergoes by reason of artificial prevention. The spirit is connected with the embryo at the moment of conception, and gradually enters the body in the fourth month when the nerve and brain channels are being formed. Therefore, abortion is permissible only in exceptional cases.

7. Certainly, I approve of the fight against abortion, but how will you fight this evil? There are no laws which can either preserve or forbid anything. That is why I, personally, think that first of all you must battle by uplifting the level of consciousness of the growing generations, directing it toward the right comprehension of the human cosmic mission in general and that of motherhood in particular. Thoughts should be directed toward creative work and broad problems of the General Good on a cosmic scale. It is important to establish the world’s scale. Again, we return to the same fundamental question: upbringing and education. As the Great Mind expressed it, “The source of all suffering is ignorance,” which is so true; and the history of humanity, with all its dark pages of persecution of the best representatives of knowledge, proves it.

A New Heaven and a New Earth: America Must Return to Her Divine Commitment to Uphold the Life of the Child Aborning in the Womb of the Divine Mother

 

That the Christ Might Be Born 

   “If the spiritual leadership of America does not cry halt to this massacre and this holocaust, then, I tell you, you may count the number of July Fourths that will remain to be celebrated.”

~Saint Germain and Portia, July 4, 1990

 

     It’s been 33 years since I and many others heard these words, yet, here we are, in a new millennium, and the failure of the spiritual leadership in America to “cry halt” to the massacre of abortion is still heavy upon this nation.

     Thirty-three is a significant number—it is a mystical number; it is the number of initiations illustrated in the life of Jesus. 

     Such is the testing that those who aspire to walk the path of Personal Christhood taught by the Ascended Masters of the Great White Brotherhood through their messengers Mark L. Prophet and Elizabeth Clare Prophet can expect. 

     In their landmark Fourth of July dictation, Saint Germain and Portia spoke strongly of many things, including the “pain of the karma” of those who know the Law yet who fail to speak up on behalf of the unborn:

     “For I tell you, when the judgement descends upon this nation for this abortion of these children of the Light and these sons of God, and yes, avatars, none will be held guiltless who have failed to speak out on this issue, to write on it and to defend that position for Life!

     Therefore take the opportunity wherever it may be.  Better, beloved, to incur the wrath, the condemnation, the ridicule, the despite and even to endure being cast out of acceptable society than to be silent on the defense of Life.”

      There must be thousands of people who have either heard or read these words since 1990, yet many may have forgotten just how important the stopping of abortion is to the victory of America and to its very survival in the 21^st century. 

      If you were also there in 1990—or if you have read and studied the Masters’ words in the years that have followed—and are wondering how you might still help bring in “A New Heaven and a New Earth” in America in this century, consider reading any of the previous posts on abortion and getting together with your spiritual friends and leaders and co-workers of light and see just what you might be able to muster in response to the Masters’ requests for action on behalf of the unborn and the future of America.

A Must Read: "A White Paper on Abortion: Teachings of Elizabeth Clare Prophet and the Ascended Masters On The Sanctity of Life in the Womb"

 

         Today, the leading provider of telehealth abortions, Hey Jane, announced the launching of its services in Virginia, enabling more women to end the lives of their developing unborn children in the comfort of their homes. From April to December 2022, medication abortion via telehealth increased 136%.

           While undoubtedly, many Americans consider this a great victory for women's rights, the sheer number of medical abortions that now occur, including via telehealth (over 53%), is stunning. 

          With an ever increasing number of abortions occurring in the privacy of homes, some may wonder what they can do that would still make a difference in saving the lives of the unborn.  Here are a few suggestions:

           Pray. Consider this simplest of prayers offered by Beloved Jesus Christ:

"Dear Jesus, save the children!  For they are my brothers, they are my sisters.  Save them and teach their parents not to abort them." (Pearls of Wisdom Vol. 37 No 45, November 6, 1994.)

           Study.  Become familiar with the various views of different religions on the legalization of abortion and with some of their teachings on abortion.  Many traditional churches, like the Roman Catholic church, are quite clear regarding the value of life in the womb.

            For a most succinct explanation of the teachings of the Ascended Masters on abortion, consider reading A White Paper On Abortion:  Teachings of Elizabeth Clare Prophet and the Ascended Masters On The Sanctity of Life in The Womb.*

             Be Prepared.  Take a few minutes to download free brochures and flyers or free eBooks that you can study and share with others---you never know who the angels might direct your way when they know you are able to help someone in need at any time.  Share them with friends and family and have them available in your study groups and spiritual centers for others to use.

   There are many lives yet to be saved and many people who need to be illumined.

Two Remedies for The Brokenhearted and Bereaved

 

        Sometimes, there really are no words to describe the grief people may suffer due to the loss of loved ones and friends, especially when the death is sudden and unexpected.  Even after a long-term illness, death, when it happens, can be an enormous shock to those left behind.

       In our family alone, we've lost two loved ones in the last 2 1/2 months--a much loved 95+ year old grandfather who was alert and basically healthy up to his last week of life and who tried to not be annoyed with God and the universe that it was "taking so long" for him to move on, get to heaven and see his beloved wife again; and a much loved son, brother, grandson, nephew and cousin, who died unexpectedly 4 days before his 42nd birthday, from a health condition he kept mainly to himself. They are both in a better place, and we are all here with the empty places and spaces in our hearts and homes, seeing them "everywhere" we go.  It is, as all who have lost loved ones and friends know, very surreal, for a very long time.

     (If you or anyone you know are in need of resources for grief, please check out the post Words for the Elderly, the Sick and the Dying--Practical Resources.)

    For anyone who believes in an afterlife, I would like to share some advice I once received from a very wise and experienced psychologist, Dr. Marilyn C. Barrick, with whom I spoke in the early years after my husband died at the age of 36, leaving me with two children under the age of five.  

   During one counseling session, Dr. Barrick told me two things that made a huge difference in my life and in my grief process.  First, she said that if I had any "unfinished business" with my late husband, I could say a prayer to Archangel Michael to take me to the retreats in heaven to meet him there and wrap things up, for as long as it took.  There was no limit to the number of times I could make such a request.  So, I did.  And, after about a year, things shifted, and I rarely had the need for such a prayer, but have, over the last 34 years, occasionally put it to good use.  The prayer was something like this, and can be said for anyone who has passed with whom you may need resolution.  You can say, "Holy Christ Self," or "Higher Self," or "Higher Power," or whatever works with your beliefs:

"In the name of my Holy Christ Self, I ask Archangel Michael to take me in my soul and soul consciousness to the retreats in heaven to meet with __________.  I ask Archangel Michael to guard and protect me and my soul to and from the retreats."

   The second thing she told me was, I believe, the most helpful practical spiritual tool I've heard of so far in my life:  She told me that I could, at any time, write the Higher Self of my husband and pour out my heart and tell him anything I wanted or needed to; ask Archangel Michael to take the letter to my husband's Higher Self, and that the angels and his Higher Self would make sure he got it (at a soul level).  This was the formula she shared with me, and I have used it many, many times over the last 3 decades, not just with my late husband, but with family members and friends who have also passed on:

    Sit comfortably at a desk or table and, on a clean sheet of white paper, begin your letter to your loved one by writing almost as you would any other letter:

     "Dear Higher Self of ______________,  according to God's Will: (Then pour your heart out)

_________________________________________________________________________

_________________________________________________________________________

_________________________________________________________________________.

          

     Love,

     ___________________"

     Then, you fold the letter up, ask Jesus, God, the angels, to fill up the void left in you (after you've poured your feelings into the physical letter) with his Light, with the Light of God, so that no more darkness or suffering enters you.  

    Next, you say a short prayer to the angels asking them to take the letter to your loved one:

     "In the name of my own Holy Christ Self, I ask the Angels to take this letter from my heart to the heart of the Holy Christ Self of ___________."

    Then, you safely burn the letter in a pan, fireplace or on a sheet of aluminum foil--wherever you can safely consign the letter to the physical flame, so that it is burned and the angels carry it to the higher realms, the etheric/fire realm, where the Higher Self of your loved one is.

                                                               ~*~

    That's it.  I cannot describe how healing and liberating this ritual was and is for me and for others who are aware of this most practical spiritual tool.

                                                                              ~*~

~Thomas Moore, Irish poet, lyrics:

(Baylor A Capella Choir)

Come, ye disconsolate, where’er ye languish

Come, ye disconsolate, where’er ye languish;
Come to the mercy-seat, fervently kneel;
Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish,
Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal.

Joy of the comfortless, light of the straying,
Hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure;
Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying—
Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot cure.

Here see the Bread of Life; see waters flowing
Forth from the throne of God, pure from above;
Come to the feast of love; come, ever knowing
Earth has no sorrow but heaven can remove.

Elizabeth Clare Prophet: Kuthumi's Exposé on False Teachings and False Teachers

 

    Forty-four years ago, Elizabeth Clare Prophet gave a landmark presentation on The Guru-Chela Relationship with the Ascended Masters.(1)   During the lecture, Mrs. Prophet explained the importance of the Exposé of False Teachers and False Teachings by the Ascended Master Kuthumi and the Brothers of the Golden Robe.  Although over four decades have passed, the information and Mrs. Prophet's comments about the Exposé are still relevant to those who aspire to be chelas of the Ascended Masters:

·        "Everyone who reads it and studies it says, 'This is what we needed to know because it pinpoints what are the lies, what are the things that we have heard preached by the various teachers of East and West that are simply not doctrinally correct. It also exposes many teachers who have come and gone who are not sponsored by the Great White Brotherhood.  And, since the path of the Great White Brotherhood is the highest path, we need to know that the person we are working with has met the requirements of being a chela under the seven chohans….'”

Your Soul's God Identity

If a picture is worth a thousand words, what might be said about the worth of a glyph of Light that would open the eyes of the soul for millions...a single glyph so accurate, that it would recall the soul-the soul that is a million light-years away from her God-Reality-back to the point of the seat-of-the-soul chakra and to the desiring of resolution, to the worship of her God, to the invocation of the I AM THAT I AM?*

Perhaps that it is invaluable.

That glyph of Light, shown in the video, is called The Chart of  Your Divine Self--the I AM Presence. It is one of the most interesting charts I've ever seen.

One of the best (and shortest) explanations of the Chart that I've heard is that given by Elizabeth Clare Prophet (1 min. 50 sec. Youtube).

And, here's one of the best explanations I've read about why the Chart is so significant:

*That wallet-sized card on which the Chart is stamped and which has the description on the back does reawaken souls to their original identity, to the God who is with them and in them. It is the most important single glyph of Light, a photograph of the [soul's] inner being; and its accuracy is such that it does recall the soul–the soul that is a million light-years away from her God-Reality–back to the point of the seat-of-the-soul chakra and to the desiring of resolution, to the worship of her God, to the invocation of the I AM THAT I AM.
There is no greater gift that you can give to anyone than the understanding of his own Mighty I AM Presence, his Holy Christ Self and his evolving soul, as depicted in the lower figure in the Chart surrounded by the violet flame.

Ascended Masters on The Miraculous Medal

"Times are evil...in the world."

Another 2012 prediction? No--a statement made by the Blessed Mother who appeared to a young nun in France, in 1830 Sister Catherine Laboure:

Saint Catherine Labouré stated that on the night of July 18, 1830, she awoke upon hearing a voice of a child calling her to the sisters' chapel (located in the Rue du Bac, Paris), where she heard the Blessed Virgin Mary say to her, "God wishes to charge you with a mission. You will be contradicted, but do not fear; you will have the grace to do what is necessary. Tell your spiritual director all that passes within you. Times are evil in France and in the world."

On November 27, 1830, Catherine reported that the Blessed Mother returned during evening meditations. She displayed herself inside an oval frame, standing upon a globe, wearing many rings of different colors, most of which shone rays of light over the globe. Around the margin of the frame appeared the words Ô Marie, conçue sans péché, priez pour nous qui avons recours à vous (in English, O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee). As Catherine watched, the frame seemed to rotate, showing a circle of twelve stars, a large letter M surmounted by a cross, and the stylized Sacred Heart of Jesus crowned with thorns and Immaculate Heart of Mary pierced with a sword. Asked why some of her rings did not shed light, Mary reportedly replied, "Those are the graces for which people forget to ask." Catherine then heard Mary ask her to take these images to her father confessor, telling him that they should be put on medallions, and saying "All who wear them will receive great graces."

Catherine did so, and after two years' of investigation and observation of Catherine's normal daily behavior, the priest took the information to his archbishop without revealing Catherine's identity. The request was approved and medallions began to be produced. [2] Those who wore the medal felt that they had received great blessings, and the medal came to be referred to as the "Miraculous Medal". They proved to be popular, and the medals spread worldwide. Wikipedia.

Catholics are not the only ones who believe in the intercession of Mary. In The Age of the Divine Mother, by Elizabeth Clare Prophet, we read an excerpt from a message from the Blessed Mother:

The Miraculous Medal

Many of you are aware of the power of the focuses of light that manifest in form in various ways as jewels of light. You will recall that in the last century, in the year 1830, I appeared to one to describe the Miraculous Medal. And in my appearance, I showed the jewels that I wear on each of my fingers, focusing the virtues of God that are to be in manifestation in man. And I gave to that sweet soul who communed with me the direction for having the Miraculous Medal made. As so it has been made, and it has been worn for over a century by those who believe in the power of the Mother flame.

...in giving the revelation for the Miraculous Medal, we [of the heavenly hosts] have a means of focusing our image, our matrix, over the very hearts of the faithful ones. For you see, it is only the faithful who would deign to wear a medal of the Virgin Mother or of Christ Jesus or the star of David or the image of the Buddha. And thus we seal each medal in the flame and in the fire of the perfect concept of the divine religion, the divine science and the protection of the soul for her incarnation. (Pages 201-202)

For a greater understanding of the importance of a gold Miraculous medal, read the last paragraph of a 1977 dictation through the Messenger Elizabeth Clare Prophet.

Violet Flame Prayers and the Rosary for the Unborn and Their Families

If you are wondering how you can pray for the unborn and make a difference in the defense of life, consider praying the rosary or saying violet flame prayers.

There are many rosaries on the Internet that you can access and join in at any time of the day.  And, there are quite a few violet flame prayers that you can say on behalf of the unborn and their families.

When thinking about the inordinate number souls that have been denied an opportunity for life over the past 48 years just in America, it is almost impossible to not think of their families that have also been impacted and that are in need of healing. 

In the video above, Elizabeth Clare Prophet leads the simplest Violet Flame decree that you can begin to say anywhere, at any time and for anyone. 

If you want to focus on the souls who have been aborted or the unborn, you can visualize a picture of an unborn baby in their mother's womb surrounded by violet flame just like in the video.

Whether you choose to say the rosary or violet flame prayers on behalf of the unborn and their families; or for all children and their families around the world, you can make a difference.

Rosary for Life.

Mother Mary's Rosary for World Peace.

On the Ascended Masters Begging for Action on Behalf of the Unborn: Abortion Today

 

“Where are the clergy who will take their stand against abortion as the aborting of the life of a soul of God and her opportunity to embody?”

~Ascended Master Hilarion, April 26, 1991

 

 

 Thirty years ago, in 1991, there were at least 10 messages from the Ascended Masters regarding the tragedy, burden and karma of abortion plaguing this planet, and, especially, the United States of America.

Since posting an updated article earlier this year, Abortion 2021: Don’t Depend Upon Church and Clergy to Enlighten You—Be Proactive and Work with Angels, I’ve become aware of what may be the main reason so many churches and their clergy refrain from addressing abortion from their pulpits and creating life-affirming materials for their members to study and share with others:  They want to be popular and refrain from offending anyone who may have already had an abortion; they do not want to hurt anyone’s feelings or offend any potential donors or tithers.

It’s much easier to embrace a non-offensive, politically correct outreach ministry such as feeding the hungry and clothing the poor, because my gosh, who doesn’t want to feed the hungry and clothe the poor? They are, sadly, everywhere on the planet, increasing in numbers by the day. 

Yet, if you take into consideration the words—and direct appeals and pleadings—of the Ascended Masters, such as those of Hilarion above, how can any of their students not embrace some kind of service or outreach in defense of the unborn?

According to Mother Mary’s teachings on the Cosmic Clock, 30 years lands us on the 6:00 line of God Harmony, with the perversions of “self-pity; self-justification and indecision” always being an option. Whether as individuals or as a group, we’re all tested on the same lines at the same time, depending upon our affiliations.

For anyone who has the time and inclination to read up on the Ascended Masters’ teachings (and requests) from 30 years ago, here is a list that includes Elizabeth Clare Prophet’s 1991 lecture on abortion, Life Begets Life:

Kuthumi's Exposé of False Teachings

  Several years ago,  I added  8 (now archived) posts that focused on excerpts from the Exposé of False Teachings series by the Ascended Master Kuthumi, from the 1976 Pearls of Wisdom, which are no longer available in print.

   For some unknown reason, spiritual seekers worldwide have been denied the Master's complete teachings on a most critical and relevant topic.  The unavailability of such a body of work by an ascended master regarding one of the most devastating hindrances to a soul's evolution is disconcerting.

   For anyone interested in reading the complete 15-part Exposé of False Teachings by the Ascended Master Kuthumi, here is a link to an excellent website that has all of them posted.

Violet Flame and Roses Are An Antidote To Anxiety and Imperil

 

         In October, 1995, the Ascended Master Saint Germain gave a dictation through the Messenger Elizabeth Clare Prophet entitled, We Must Have Change, How Shall It Be Done?  Even though twenty-six years have passed, his advice and direction could not be more timely or more relevant, especially to those who are students of the Ascended Masters anywhere in the world, yet most importantly, to those in the United States of America in 2021:

"Yes, beloved, unconscious, subconscious life at all levels is feeling the change. And there is a patine, an overlay of fear and anxiety throughout the planet. I want to see to it that my Keepers of the Flame have no conscious or unconscious anxiety. Remember the chapter in Intermediate Studies in Alchemy, “Anxiety and the Anxiety Syndrome.”<1> It is a syndrome. And if you allow yourself to enter into areas of anxiety (and these may be triggered by an even greater unconscious fear) and out of fear you go into a frenzy and then a fanaticism, then soon you are leaning heavily toward the left or heavily toward the right. Is this not so, beloved? Have we not seen it?

Well, beloved, you must look in yourselves. The messenger has given a lecture on imperil.<2> Imperil is anxiety to the extreme. When people carry that, they are not productive. They cannot bring forth fruit from the tree of life. Their anxiety continually hinders them from transcending the self. When they are caught in this extreme fanaticism that becomes radicalism that becomes a hatred so powerful that they are willing to kill human life to make their point, such as you have seen in Oklahoma and now in Arizona<3>—understand this, beloved, when you see this, it is almost as if that lifestream is so caught and so caught up in the extremist view that they cannot return to the heart of the Holy Christ Self."

Anyone who has ever been on the receiving end of fear-inducing emails sent out by well-meaning friends, neighbors and community and church leaders can appreciate Saint Germain's admonishment and plea to his students. Hopefully, those who are burdened by chronic anxiety might consider getting counseling for it, because it is a very common disorder, which can really take you and your family and friends---even an entire community or population---so far off track, you forget who you are and what you are here for.

We have all been warned about "those well-meaning individuals who do not tidy up their own conscious, subconscious and unconscious domains and therefore do not realize that they are unknowingly leaking the imperil of their irritability into subterranean pockets that are filled with darkness rather than light."  We may even be one of them at various times in our lives, but, there comes a time and a day of reckoning when we are on a spiritual path, to recognize that we have a responsibility to clean up our acts and stop contributing to world angst.  

While it is best to follow the advice of professionals regarding diagnosis and treatment for chronic anxiety and anxiety disorders, it is also helpful to know that there are natural remedies, such as essential oils, to help alleviate daily stress and, perhaps, nip anxiety in the bud. One such remedy was shared by a psychologist, the late Dr. Marilyn C, Barrick during The Guru-Chela Relationship Darshan, where she stated that "roses are an antidote to imperil," when sharing part of her own story of life on the spiritual path.

Most importantly, we have the opporunity to use the violet flame for the transmutation of fear and anxiety  and to learn about and say the prayer that Jesus gave us for the binding of the "Dweller on the Threshold" of all the substance of our lower self that is dragging us down and out and off the spiritual path and putting us in karma-making situations where we burden others, including elemental life, with our unresolved fears and anxieties. 

We have plenty of options to help ourselves, our friends and loved ones and our country and planet overcome what seems to be an epidemic of anxiety--these are just a few that some may find helpful.

*imperil:  2.  imperil (noun): the poison that results from fear, anxiety, anguish and irritability, all of which assume many forms. 

For more information about imperil, there is a CD available with teachings from the Ascendedd Masters and the Messenger Elizabeth Clare Prophet, "Imperil A Commanding Danger!"

Abortion 2021: Don't Depend upon Church and Clergy to Enlighten You--Be Pro-Active and Work with Angels!

          It’s now 2021, over 48 years since abortion became legal in the United States, which has resulted in 62,502,904 abortions—an incomprehensible number of souls denied their opportunity for life. Here is the post from 2/4/2020 that is still relevant today:

          I just read an article about a Christian minister who expressed his regret about not speaking out against abortion earlier in his ministry and another article about a Catholic priest in Rhode Island who quite publicly announced that he would not serve Holy Communion to politicians who supported a bill that allows abortion up to birth.

          So, kudos to those religious leaders who act on their beliefs and don’t shy away from their responsibility to “feed their sheep” and illumine their members re: the pro-life teachings of their churches.  You have to wonder, as a Catholic pro-life activist friend of mine did recently, “Where the heck are the rest of them and why do we only hear about abortion from the pulpit on the anniversary of Roe v. Wade?”  She was, of course, referring to her suburban parish, which has but one of three priests willing to preach on abortion.  And, she said, that the priest “gets clobbered” by the pro-choice Catholics in the parish, many of whom are “big donors,” whenever he speaks about the sanctity of life.

          “What’s wrong with the rest of them?  Why the heck don’t they step up to the plate? Money? Politics? What?”  Good questions, and I agreed with her, yet had no answers other than reminding her that there were a lot of pro-life people in the country who were actively involved in getting the pro-life message out.

          She was distressed and overwhelmed that abortions in America had hit such a horrifying number and that infanticide has now become legal in 19 states and that 29 states permit abortions of healthy, full-term babies.  I understand—the numbers are overwhelming and the movement towards the legalization of infanticide throughout the United States is horrifying—mind numbing.  But, there is always something that can be done to defend life—even if you can’t get out and join annual marches or groups of people holding prayer vigils on the sidewalks near abortion clinics. 

          In October, 1996, the Ascended Master El Morya gave one of his last dictations through the Messenger Elizabeth Clare Prophet, and he encouraged us to not get overwhelmed by the inordinate number of serious problems in the world, including abortion, and gave us a most practical answer—make fiats and call to angels for assistance:

“Blessed ones, serious issues are at hand. Children of the light who must come into embodiment are being aborted and aborted at term.

...these are the crises of the times. You must not be engulfed by them or overwhelmed by them. You must make the call in fervor with a deep determination. You must feel the fire of your being going back to the heart of your I AM Presence. And you must know with conviction that the fiat you make in each of these issues will work and what you have called for will come to pass.

...Beloved, it is the single fiat with the power of one's entire fiery being that you have culled through the ages that can neutralize and turn around these negative situations. Do not be overwhelmed. Your mighty I AM Presence is able. Your Holy Christ Self is able. Speak the word, speak it succinctly, and Mercurian messengers take that word and the momentum behind it to turn around situations that seem hopeless.”

What would an example of a fiat for the protection of life in the womb be?  “In the name of Almighty God, I command legions of angels of the Seven Archangels and Archangel Michael’s bands to guard and protect all life aborning in the womb and send comfort and illumination to those who are considering abortion. According to God’s Will, Amen!”

          What else can you do if you belong to a church that fails to supply you with practical, easily accessible educational tools regarding abortion and whose ministers rarely, if ever, step up to the plate and preach about the sanctity of life and educate members about church teachings on abortion?  You can communicate your concerns to the leadership and pray they don’t fall on deaf ears, get placed in the “emotional letters” bin or labeled politically incorrect and out of sync with the times.

You can also take action to educate yourself through many of the pro-life organizations whose websites offer downloadable materials including SoulChoice.org, which offers downloadable posters, flyers and eBooks in English and Spanish and brochures in English, French, Hindi, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish.
