The Lucis Trust

 

1934 -- The Externalization of the Hierarchy by Alice A. Bailey is published. Bailey is an occultist, whose works are channeled from a spirit guide, the Tibetan Master [demon spirit] Djwahl Kuhl. Bailey uses the phrase "points of light" in connection with a "New Group of World Servers" and claims that 1934 marks the beginning of "the organizing of the men and women...group work of a  new order...[with] progress defined by service...the world of the Brotherhood...the Forces of Light...[and] out of the spoliation of all existing culture and civilization, the new world order must be built." The book is  published by the Lucis Trust, incorporated originally in New York as the Lucifer  Publishing Company. Lucis Trust is a United Nations NGO and has been a major player at the recent U.N. summits. Later Assistant Secretary General of the U.N. Robert Mueller would credit the creation of his World Core Curriculum for  education to the underlying teachings of Djwahl Kuhl via Alice Bailey's writings on the subject.

This is a new-age organization dedicated to the overthrow of the old system and to usher in a new system that they deem fit with the help of the United Nations.

Obviously, this will not be a Christian-based type of governement. It will sound good and look good for the moment but utter chaos will ultimately set in.  HLS
