Saint German as CHRISTOPHER
COLUMBUS, Cristóbal Colón (c. 1451-1506)
Columbus' "outer person and bodily disposition"
were thus described by Bishop Bartolomé de las
Casas, 1474-1566: "He was tall more than average;
his face long and of a noble bearing; his nose aquiline;
his eyes blue; his complexion white, and somewhat fiery
red; his beard and hair fair in his youth, though they
soon turned white through hardships borne; he was quick-witted
and gay in his speech and, as the aforesaid Portuguese
history says, eloquent and high-sounding in his business;
he was moderately grave; affable towards strangers; sweet
and good-humoured with those of his house . . . of a discreet
conversation and thus able to draw love from all who saw
him. Finally, his person and venerable mien revealed a
person of great state and authority and worthy of all
reverence."
He was the discoverer of America aptly
named after Saint Christopher, who by legend is pictured
carrying the infant Jesus across the waters. His surname
means "repopulator." Christopher Columbus
was born in Genoa and as a young man studied astronomy,
geometry, and cosmography at the University of Pavia.
At age fourteen, he was already a skilled seaman.
While employed as a mapmaker in Porto
Santo in 1479, Columbus was privileged to examine charts
of the Portuguese explorers who endeavored to find a sea
route to the Orient by sailing southward along the unexplored
African seacoast. Some of these documents were at that
time a state secret. In addition, he pored over the Book
of Marco Polo, the Imago Mundi of Pierre d'Ailly, the
logs and records carefully kept by his deceased father-in-law
who had served as naval captain under Henry the Navigator.
Columbus was often seen engaged in hearty conversation
with old seamen and sailors returning from African voyages.
Step by step, he conceived the idea that
the world is a sphere. His daring proposal for a westerly
voyage to the East Indies as finally developed and presented
before the courts of Portugal and Spain was supported
by theories of geographers, reports of mariners, and actual
evidence of unknown civilizations that from time to time
washed ashore. Unlike most of the fortune-hunters of the
age, seamen and kings alike, Columbus was deeply religious
and sought passage by sea to the Orient not only for her
wealth but also for the firm establishment of Christianity
among the Asiatics.
Columbus first presented his carefully
charted plans to John II of Portugal who turned the matter
over to a body of distinguished scholars. Although they
concluded that his proposal was "unrealistic,"
the king favored the theory and secretly dispatched a
caravel of his own. The sailors soon returned, however,
disheartened and afraid. When Columbus discovered the
treachery he departed for Spain, arriving in 1484 during
a fierce war between Christians and Moors.
King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella were
preoccupied with their military struggle and therefore
unable to give due consideration to Columbus' proposals.
Year after year he waited, meanwhile taking the issue
before Henry VII of England and Charles VIII of France,
but to no avail. It was not until January 2, 1492, that
the war ended and Columbus received an audience with the
queen. The plan was flatly rejected, however, after Columbus
impetuously demanded the rank of "Admiral of the
Ocean," vice royalty of all lands he found, and ten
percent of the precious metals he might discover.
On his way out of the country, Columbus
went to Luis de Santangel, the king's treasurer, and announced
his discovery of the northeasterly trade winds which would
safely and surely carry him across the uncharted seas.
Santangel then went to Isabella and convinced her of the
vast importance of the mission. The queen immediately
dispatched a messenger who found Columbus already on the
road for France.
Isabella met with him and hasty preparations
for the voyage began. With eighty-eight skilled, but
skeptical sailors and three nearly inadequate ships, Columbus
and his crew set sail for the New World the morning of
August 3, 1492, after receiving Holy Communion. Long weeks
at sea failed to produce sight of the land the admiral
had expected (Columbus had correctly defined the shape
of the earth but grossly underestimated its size). It
was an age of superstition, and common fears included
everything from sea monsters to falling off the "edge"
of the world.
Ascended Master Saint Germain himself
has described how he quelled violent mutiny aboard his
ships during that first voyage. Finally at ten o'clock
the night of October 11, 1492, Christopher Columbus first
sighted land, pointing out a dim light ahead. The next
morning he landed, richly clad and accompanied by his
captains bearing banners of the Green Cross. When they
all had "given thanks to God, kneeling upon the shore,
and kissed the ground with tears of joy, for the great
mercy received," Columbus named the island San Salvador
and took solemn possession of it.
At the same time, the crew who had shown
themselves doubtful and mutinous sought his pardon, weeping
and prostrating themselves at his feet. When the natives
(called "Indians" because Columbus believed
he had reached the East Indies) told him tales of the
plentiful gold to be found in neighboring lands, Columbus
set sail in search of the treasure and for a fortnight
wandered among the lovely islands. It was then that he
discovered Cuba, magnetized by the violet-flame focus
of Lord Zadkiel's retreat.
While further exploring the area on Christmas
night, 1492, the Santa Maria drifted into a reef. When
the natives of nearby San Domingo came out to rescue the
men, Columbus observed their rich ornaments and believed
that his search for a land of gold was ended. There he
founded his first colony, La Navidad, and built a fort
from the remains of the sunken ship, placing its crew
of forty-four in charge.
On January 4, 1493, Columbus and the
remaining men departed for home. Along the way, they encountered
a violent storm which quickly subsided after the crew
implored the assistance of Mother Mary and drew lots to
see who would make a pilgrimage to her shrines. On March
4, the Nina dropped anchor off Palos. Columbus proceeded
to Barcelona in a sort of triumphal procession and was
received by the king and queen in full court where he
related his fantastic story.
A second expedition was immediately prepared
to secure and extend discoveries already made. The new
party set sail on September 28. Upon his return to La
Navidad, Columbus found that one third of the 300,000
inhabitants of the island had been killed in struggles
between Indians and
Spaniards. Columbus restored partial peace with the Indians
who had been unjustly treated, rebuilt the fort, and proceeded
to explore the islands from Cuba to Jamaica.
During this time, however, he became exhausted by the
physical and mental strain of his expeditions. In these
trying times, he wrote in his journal that he was thirty-three
days practically without sleep. Columbus lay ill for five
months, during which time he entered into deep communion
with God. Thereafter, he was met by a royal commission
who acted in harsh judgment of his administration.
Columbus, dressed as a Franciscan, was
sent home in 1496 but was cordially received by his sovereigns.
In 1502 he appealed for a third voyage and was quickly
granted support. Returning to La Navidad, he again found
that affairs had not prospered well in his absence, and
so displeasing were the reports now brought before Ferdinand
and Isabella by returning colonists that the king and
queen appointed a royal representative to take Columbus'
charge. He stood accused of severity, injustice, even
of venality and was finally shipped back to Spain, bound
in chains as a criminal.
In the meantime, however, Queen Isabella
had received a heartbroken and indignant letter written
by Columbus to an associate, explaining the events in
La Navidad in his own terms. Upon counsel with his majesties,
the admiral's property and office was restored. During
his fourth voyage, Columbus' ships ran aground in a small
inlet on the island of Jamaica. Columbus and crew were
received with great kindness by the natives, who provided
them with food for more than a year while they awaited
assistance. After that time, the admiral suffered much
from disease and from the lawlessness of his crew, who
incited mutiny and alienated the natives, provoking them
to withhold customary supplies.
Columbus restored their trust by "miraculously"
predicting the eclipse of the moon thereby proving
his favor with heavenly powers. Upon his safe return to
Spain, Columbus was again well received, although his
health was rapidly failing. He passed on in May 1506,
uttering the words: "Father, into thy hands I commend
my spirit."

SAINT GERMAIN as Francis Bacon
Britain's greatest intellect, Francis
Bacon fathered inductive reasoning and the modern scientific
method, conducted experiments of his own, shepherded a
group of the Elizabethan era's greatest writers, oversaw
the translation of the King James Version of the Bible,
supported the colonization of the New World and Newfoundland
and even, some say, authored the Shakespearian plays.
Bacon’s literal cipher has likewise
revealed the inner teachings of the Brotherhood, the secrets
of mysticism written in the “sacred language”
of the hidden cipher understood only by advanced initiates,
including those in the early Masonic Order. While in France,
Bacon studied secret diplomacy and worked with an underground
literary society called the Pleiades whose goal was the
refinement of the French language. After three years,
he returned to Britain with the intent of founding similar
societies for the perfection of the English language and
with the hope of diplomatically winning his rightful place
as heir to the throne.
Following his study of law at Grey’s
Inn, Bacon served as a barrister in Parliament and wrote
“A Letter of Advice” to Queen Elizabeth in
which he reveals remarkable political judgment. But Elizabeth
denied Bacon even mere recognition, slighting him before
her court and deliberately refusing him positions of authority.
Therefore, Bacon resolved, “I will take all of learning
to be my province.” To historians ignorant of the
relationship of Bacon and the queen, her disparaging treatment
of him was unexplainable and prompted much of the literary
investigation. Upon the passing of Queen Elizabeth in
1603, however, King James I appointed Francis Bacon to
succeeding high positions, eventually awarding him the
Lord Chancellorship and the titles Baron Verulam and Viscount
St. Albans.
His fame increased by the publication
in 1620 of his most celebrated work Novum Organum, the
“New Instrument,” in which Bacon presents
a series of syllogisms representing his inductive method
and establishing his famous classification of the “Idols”
of the human mind which prohibit the understanding of
divine truth. He defines the “Idols of the Tribe”
as inherent limitations of the mortal mind, “Idols
of the Cave” caused by human prejudice, “Idols
of the Market Place” arising from man’s inexactness
in the use of language, and “Idols of the Theatre”
perpetuated in various fallacious systems of thought.
Bacon’s numerous philosophical works, including
Novum Organum and De Augmentis Scientiarum, form integral
parts of a grand comprehensive scheme for the restoration
of wisdomthe Instauratio Magna, the “Great
Plan.”
Francis Bacon translated the King James
version of the Bible. His Essays are what he called “dispersed
meditations” on friendship, love, wealth, studies,
honor, and other fundamental graces of life. These witty,
pithy statements have become popular mottos and perhaps
the most familiar of his writings. De Sapientia Veterum
is a brilliant allegorical interpretation and scientific
explanation of the inner truths found in Greek mythology.
Bacon founded a secret literary society in England known
as the Helmet Bearers. (Their patroness Pallas Athena
was often pictured wearing a helmet and full armor in
her defense of truth. The traditions of ancient Greece
depict her standing atop her majestic temple, holding
a golden spear which, when glinted upon by the dawning
sun, appeared to tremble. She is therefore known as the
“shaker of the spear” and thus the Shakespearean
plays truly received their name.)
Francis Bacon sponsored the early society
of the Rosy Cross, the Rosicrucian Order, and was instrumental
in founding the Masonic Order. From his famous New Atlantis,
the Masons derive their heritage of the House of Solomon
and the Masonic tradition of America as the Promised Land
where golden-age culture and science will rise again.
Later in 1620, fierce jealousy of Bacon’s literary
and political success by members of Parliament resulted
in his accusation of graft, later proven unjust. Bacon
resigned his positions and spent the remaining years of
his recorded life completing other valuable works, including
the History of Henry the VII and his famous Apophthegms.
In 1626, he feigned a “philosophic
death” and attended his own funeral in disguise.
Thereafter, he moved to the Rakoczy Mansion, located in
the Carpathian foothills of Transylvania where Saint Germain,
prior to the sinking of Atlantis, transported the flame
of freedom from the Temple of Purification. There he took
his final initiations under the Great Divine Director,
his guru. Saint Germain won his ascension on May 1, 1684,
after having made, as he once commented, “two million
right decisions” during hundreds of thousands of
years of service on behalf of earth and her evolutions.
SAINT GERMAIN as Francis Bacon (1561-1626) was Lord Chancellor
of England, statesman, essayist, the "father of inductive
science." His contemporaries believed that he was
the son of Sir Nicholas Bacon, Keeper of the Great Seal
of England during the reign of Elizabeth I. In the nineteenth
century, however, the complete story of his life began
to unfold when the first volumes of the famed "Bacon-Shakespeare
controversy" appeared and Francis Bacon emerged as
the brilliant author whose sonnets, poems, and plays still
remain the most cherished of all English literature.
The idea that the "Shakespearean"
plays were not the work of William Shakespeare has been
the subject of scores of books, first based on the obvious
disparity between the magnificent work and the somewhat
obscure character of Shakespeare-a common actor with insufficient
learning, the son of a small provincial tradesman at Stratford-on-Avon.
In contrast, the plays exhibit the genius
of one with extensive education in language and literature,
thorough knowledge of law, history, and politics, firsthand
experience in the high courts of Europe, and unquestioning
familiarity with the manners and speech of royalty-requirements
so aptly met by Lord Bacon. Following another less speculative
method of investigation, literary scholars late in the
century discovered within the "Shakespearean"
works a strange and secret tragedya
drama within a drama-written in intricate cipher.
Step-by-step, amazed cryptographers
deciphered the concealed history of Elizabethan England
and with it the true identity of Francis Bacon as the
rightful heir to the English throne, the fils naturel
of Queen Elizabeth and Lord Leicester. Francis was given
over at birth to Sir Nicholas and his Puritan wife Lady
Anne, who was present at the royal birth and, it is believed,
pleaded for the life of the infant. Elizabeth, the daughter
born to Anne Boleyn and Henry VIII, inherited her father's
tyrannical nature.
Having been rejected as a child, she
constantly feared that her subjects privately sought a
king in her stead and was always careful, therefore, to
maintain absolute dominion over her court, her advisors,
even her son. Although later historical documents hint
at a secret marriage, such a remark heard by the queen
herself often resulted in imprisonment or death. Thus
the true account of her reign is revealed perhaps solely
in the coded writings of Francis Bacon.
His childhood with Nicholas and good
Lady Anne was spent happily and at age twelve he entered
Cambridge, mysteriously funded by the queen herself. At
age fifteen, however, Bacon unexpectedly left the university
on a secret mission for the Crown. At this point it is
believed that Francis discovered his true identity and
was therefore hastily sent abroad by the queen for the
purpose of setting him at a comfortable distance to her
throne.
Nevertheless, he was entrusted with the
vital mission of studying the cipher-codes of Europe and
developing new formulas for the protection of confidential
information in England. Lord Bacon later recorded his
understanding of literary science in De Augmentis Scientiarum,
the Advancement of Learning, from which early cryptographers
derived the formula for his work.
Bacon's literal cipher has likewise
revealed the inner teachings of the Brotherhood, the secrets
of mysticism written in the "sacred language"
of the hidden cipher understood only by advanced initiates,

Saint Germain, The Knight
Commander
Keepers of the Flame Fraternity

SAINT GERMAIN as Prince Rakoczy,
the Comte de Saint Germain, and the "Wonderman of
Europe."
Upon his ascension from the Rakoczy Mansion
in 1684, Ascended Master Saint Germain entered the Great
Silence (nirvana) where his beloved twin flame Portia,
the Goddess of Justice—whose name he had inscribed
in The Merchant of Venice—had long been waiting
his return. Not long thereafter, the beloved Sanctus Germanus
was given the dispensation by the Lords of Karma to function
in the world of form as an ascended being having the appearance
of an unascended being.
During this period, historians who have
studied the life of the Wonderman of Europe have speculated
that he was Prince Rakoczy, of the royal house of Hungary,
which for centuries fought to maintain independence and
religious liberty in Transylvania against the fierce attack
of the Turks and the relentless invasion of the Hapsburg's
powerful Austrian army.
Ferencz Rákóczi I (1645-1676)
was killed in the bitter stuggles of the Hungarian Patriot
Movement and upon his death the widowed pincess, his children,
and all their properties were seized by the Austrian emperor.
In March, 1688, arrangements were made for his son Ferencz
II (Francis Leopold Rakoczy) to be brought up in the Court
of Vienna. When he came of age, the young prince regained
his estate, although with considerable regulations and
limitations.
After his marriage in 1694, Ferencz II
began to incite anew the fight for freedom in the small
but exceedingly powerful and wealthy province of Transylvania.
With the military assistance of Louis XIV of France, he
waged several successful campaigns against both the Austrians
and the Turks. In 1697, however, France withdrew her support
and Ferencz II was forced to leave his wife and sons and
take refuge in Poland.
He then traveled to both France and Turkey
in an attempt to regain support for his revolutionary
cause, but to no avail. Transylvania was again captured
by the Hapsburg government and two of the Rakoczy sons
were forced to abandon their name and take the Austrian
catholic names St. Karl and St. Elizabeth. In one account
concerning the mysterious "third son," Prince
Karl of Hesse writes: "[Saint Germain] told me that
. . . he was the son of Prince Ragoczy of Transylvania
by his first wife, Tékéli.
He was placed, when quite young, under
the care of the last Duc de Medici (Gian Gastone) . .
. When M. de St. Germain learned that his two brothers,
sons of the Princess of Hesse-Wahnfried (Rheihfels), had
become subject to the Emperor Charles VI and had received
the titles and names St. Karl and St. Elizabeth, he said
to himself: 'Very well, I will call myself Sanctus Germano,
the Holy Brother [Latin Sanctus Germanus].'"
Saint Germain has neither confirmed nor
denied whether, as the Wonderman of Europe, he chose to
actually embody in the family of Ferencz II or whether
he simply materialized a body and made
it appear that he had descended through the royal house
of Hungary, using the name and identity as a convenient
disguise. It is not important to know which alternative
he chose but to know that,
as an ascended master, he could have chosen either one
or both, since an ascended master may occupy any number
of 'bodies', i.e. forcefields, simultaneously in order
to accomplish his mission on earth.
Note that during the period of his seeming
ubiquitousness in Europe, he played an energetic
and principal role in the American Revolution. The question
may well be asked, where has the Master's presence not
been felt in the universal movement for freedom which
has taken place in the centuries leading up to the Aquarian
dispensation? Throughout the courts of eighteenth century
Europe, he was known as the Comte de Saint Germain. He
appeared, disappeared, and reappeared in and out of royal
circles with his outstanding quality of realism in an
age that was closing in upon itself by the weight of its
own hypocrisy.
Voltaire aptly described him in a letter to Frederick
II of Prussia as "a man who never dies and who knows
everything." The archives of France contain evidence
that English, Dutch, and Prussian statesmen of his time
regarded the Count as an authority in many fields. He
was hated by some while loved and held in awe by others.
As one of his friends said, "He was, perhaps, one
of the greatest philosophers who ever lived . . . His
heart was concerned only with the happiness of others."
The master alchemist spoke French, German,
English, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, and Russian so
fluently that he was accepted as a native wherever he
went. According to a contemporary account, "the learned
and the oriental scholars have proved the knowledge of
the Count St. Germain. The former found him more apt in
the languages of Homer and Virgil than themselves; with
the latter he spoke Sanscrit, Chinese, Arabic in such
a manner as to show them that he had made some lengthy
stay in Asia."
The Comte de Saint Germain composed,
improvised, accompanied on piano without music "not
only every song but also the most difficult concerti,
played on various instruments," and played the violin
"like an orchestra." His compositions remain
today in the British Museum and the library of the castle
of Raudnitz in Bohemia. He painted in oils with colors
of gemlike brilliance, a "secret" which he himself
discovered.
It is said that from 1737 to 1742, Saint
Germain was at the Court of the Shah of Persia, there
exhibiting his extraordinary knowledge of precipitating
and perfecting precious stones, particularly diamonds.
According to the memoirs of Madame du Hausset, Saint Germain
once removed a flaw from a large diamond which belonged
to King Louis XV. In his alchemical laboratory at the
Royal Chateau at Chambord, Saint Germain was attended
by a group of learned and noble students.
The Count is described by Graf Cobenzl
in a letter dated 1763: "Possessing great wealth,
he lives in the greatest simplicity; he knows everything,
and shows an uprightness, a goodness of soul, worthy of
admiration. Among a number of his accomplishments, he
made, under my own eyes, some experiments, of which the
most important were the transmutation of iron into a metal
as beautiful as gold."
The Comte de Saint-Germain thoroughly
understood the use of herbs and plants and discovered
medicines and elixirs to prolong life and maintain health.
Many of his demonstrations of mastery are described
in the diaries of Mme. d'Adhemar, who knew him for at
least half a century. She records Saint Germain's visits
to herself and to the courts of Louis XV and Louis XVI,
noting in his glowing face the appearance of a man in
his early forties throughout the period. She mentions
a personal conversation with the Count in 1789 in which
he appeared "with the same countenance as in 1760."
In the same conversation he predicted
the Revolution of 1789, the fall of the House of Bourbon,
and the course of modern French history. Introducing the
science of modern diplomacy, he carried out many secret
diplomatic missions for the king to the courts of Europe.
Had Saint Germain's counsel been heeded by Louis XVI,
it would have prevented the French Revolution. Later Saint
Germain sought to establish a United States of Europe
through Napoleon (1799-1815), who
failed his initiation and misused the master's power to
his own demise.
For more information, see The Count of
Saint Germain by Isabel Cooper-Oakley available from The
Summit Lighthouse, paperback, $2.50 postpaid. Speaking
of his efforts in the 18th century, Saint Germain said,
"Having failed in securing the attention of the Court
of France and others
of the crowned heads of Europe, I turned myself to the
perfectionment of mankind at large, and I recognized that
there were many who, hungering and thirsting after righteousness,
would indeed be filled with the concept of a perfect union
which would inspire them to take dominion over the New
World and create a union among the sovereign states. Thus
the United States was born as a child of my heart and
the American Revolution was the means of bringing freedom
in all of its glory into manifestation from the East unto
the West."
SAINT GERMAIN, Ascended Master of the Aquarian Age, Sponsor
of the United States of America.
In 1775, a committee appointed by the
Continental Congress (including Franklin, Lynch, and Harrison)
met with Gen. Washington and a "mysterious old professor"
in Cambridge, Mass. to recommend a plan for the American
flag. In this disguise, Saint Germain revealed his design
for a flag with a variable field of starsa
prophecy of the continual unfoldment of the vast destiny
of the new nation.
Saint Germain broke the deadlock at Independence
Hall with his "Sign that document!" shouted
from the balcony. It was 5:00 p.m., July 4, 1776. The
delegates signed the Declaration of Independence, and
when they looked up to thank him, the "mysterious
stranger" had come and gone. Saint Germain stood
by George Washington throughout the Revolution and during
the long winter at Valley Forge. He inspired and directed
the writing of the Constitution and anointed George Washington
first president of the United States.
In the early 1930s, Saint Germain contacted
his "general in the field," the reembodied George
Washington, Guy W. Ballard, whom he trained as a messenger
for hierarchy and through whom he released the dispensation
of the violet-flame energy of the Holy Spirit. Soon after,
El Morya
undertook the training of the Messengers Mark and Elizabeth
Prophet, who were anointed by Saint Germain and called
by the Darjeeling Council to establish The Summit Lighthouse
as the open door for the release of the teachings of the
ascended masters and the establishment of the Community
of the Holy Spirit in the Aquarian age.
Following the ascension of Mark Prophet
in 1973, Elizabeth Clare Prophet remains the embodied
messenger for Saint Germain and the ascended masters.
Today Saint Germain uses Summit University, sponsored
by Jesus Christ and Gautama Buddha, to present his teachings
on alchemy. With the World Teachers Jesus and Kuthumi,
he is working with children preschool through twelfth
grade at Montessori International.
Saint Germain sponsored the founding
of the Boy and Girl Scouts through Lord Baden-Powell and
Juliette Gordon Low. Within Church Universal and Triumphant,
Saint Germain represents the Father, Mary, the Mother,
and Jesus, the Christ, the Son. In lectures and seminars
throughout America and abroad, Elizabeth Clare Prophet
initiates chelas of Saint Germain on the path of soul
liberation.
It is the prayer of devotees of the Great Alchemist that
many chelas will come forth so that Saint Germain will
once again receive the dispensation from the Lords of
Karma to step through the veil as he did as the Wonderman
of Europe. To this end, Keepers of the Flame dedicate
their energies in the giving of dynamic decrees to the
violet flame in the science of the spoken Word. For them,
Saturday night is world service to Saint Germain for personal
and planetary freedom for earth's evolutions.
Until Saint Germain and other members
of the Great White Brotherhood step physically through
the veil, they will continue to "step through"
their embodied messengers, delivering their dictations,
transferring their energy from Spirit to Matter, and initiating
souls on the path of the ascension.
