The Temple of The Presence
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Temple of The Presence was established in 1995 by Carolyn Shearer and Monroe Shearer, after they received what they believed to be an Anointing to become Messengers for the Ascended Masters, Archangels, Cosmic Beings, Elohim, and Others of the Spiritual Hierarchy.[1] This organization believes that their teachings have been given to humanity by the Ascended Masters. These are believed to be individuals who have lived in physical bodies, acquired the Wisdom and Mastery needed to become Immortal and Free of the cyles of "re-embodiment" and karma, and attained their "Ascension". They consider the "Ascension" to be the complete permanent union of the raised and purified outer self with the "I AM" Presence - that True Identity that is the unique Individualization of the Most High Living God for each person.[2][3]

[edit] Ascended Master Teachings
Quarterly Conclaves are held in Tucson, Arizona United States., attended by The Torch Bearers of The Temple and people coming from throughout the world to hear what they believe to be direct Instruction from Ascended Masters, Archangels, and Elohim on Cosmic Law, on the Incarnation of the "I AM" in every individual, and various current topics. Quarterly week-long classes of Acropolis Sophia are held after each Conclave with more in-depth Instruction given on Ascended Master Teachings. The members of The Temple of The Presence believe that a Dispensation and Sponsorship was given by the Ascended Masters for this Ascended Master Activity to be an outer organization representing the "Great Brotherhood of Light" - also known as the Great White Brotherhood. They consider themselves to be a continuation of the previous efforts by the Ascended Masters to bring Illumination to mankind through Theosophy, Agni Yoga, the "I AM" Activity, The Bridge to Freedom, and The Summit Lighthouse.[4]
[edit] Mission Statement
"The goals, purposes, and objectives of The Temple of The Presence are to assist individual Lightbearers to become one with God through the Ascension; to proclaim and advocate the practice of the Ascended Master Teachings as a worldwide Faith and Religion; to foster a spiritual arena where Students, Lightbearers, Torch Bearers, Chelas, and Disciples can cooperate with the Ascended Masters’ initiative to sponsor an Activity operating directly under Their aegis, and where Lightbearers can actively engage in a greater level of World Service under the Masters’ direct participation and leadership; to foster an assembly of Disciples pledged to conscious cooperation with Saint Germain and His Plan to bring in the Golden Age; and to boldly uphold and proclaim the eternal Truth of Cosmic Law through the publication and dissemination of the Dictations and Discourses of the Ascended Masters in the written and spoken word, utilizing all available means to contact, nurture and enlighten Lightbearers throughout the world."[5]
