Invocation for Lightworkers

EMPOWERING OUR PLANETARY GRID OF TRANSFIGURING DIVINE LOVE

by Patricia Cota-Robles www.eraofpeace.org.   December 2017   

Because of the unprecedented influx of Light that has taken place over the past several years, the I AM Presence, which is the Divinity within every person’s Heart Flame, is at long last reclaiming dominion of our Earthly experiences. The Divine Intervention of our I AM Presence is allowing the entire Company of Heaven to work more closely with us than ever before.

These selfless Messengers of our Father-Mother God are asking us to join with them now, in unified consciousness, to empower the Planetary Grid of Transfiguring Divine Love that Lightworkers have been cocreating on behalf of Humanity and Mother Earth over the past 50 years.

This Activity of Light will enable our Grid of Divine Love to assimilate the unfathomable influx of Light our Father-Mother God will Breathe into the Grid, in a rhythmic momentum, during Humanity’s Global participation in the monthly Free Seminars we offer through Era of Peace. The Divine Intent of this influx of Light is to expand the Lightwork of every single person on Earth a thousand fold.

The Company of Heaven has given us the following Invocation so that you and Lightworkers all over the World will be able to easily weave your magnificent Light into the Chalice of Light we will form through our unified Heart Flames during the Free Seminars every month.

In deep Gratitude for our ability to serve Life in this way, let’s join together in consciousness with the I AM Presence of every man, woman, and child on Earth, as we unify our Hearts with the Hearts of our Father-Mother God and the entire Company of Heaven. Together we will magnetize from the Core of Creation the most intensified frequencies of the 5^th-Dimensional Crystalline Flame of Transfiguring Diving Love that Humanity and the Earth are capable of withstanding at a cellular level.
 

And we begin… 

Breathe in deeply and go within to the Divinity of your Heart Flame. Please join me now with the full power of your attention and your Divine Intentions.

I AM my I AM Presence and I AM One with the I AM Presence of ALL Humanity. As One Voice, One Breath, One Heartbeat, and One Energy, Vibration and Consciousness of Pure Divine Love we invoke our Father-Mother God and the Legions of Light throughout Infinity.  Beloved Ones, come forth NOW!  (pause)

We are One with ALL of these magnificent Forces of Light. Through our sincere Heart Call, they have joyously come to help Humanity’s I AM Presence empower and sustain the Lightwork of every man, woman, and child on Earth a thousand fold.

Beloved Legions of Light, we ask that you gather up every electron of precious Life energy being expended by Humanity during this sacred and Holy Time. Purify this energy with the power and might of a thousand Suns using the New 5^th-Dimensional Solar Frequencies of the Violet Flame of God’s Infinite Perfection. Weave this purified energy into the collective Cup of Humanity’s Consciousness, so that every electron of precious Life energy released by the Sons and Daughters of God on Earth at this time will be used to exponentially expand the Light of God through the Planetary Grid of Transfiguring Divine Love that is now embracing this Planet and ALL her Life.

We accept that this Activity of Light is being God Victoriously accomplished right here and right now. We also accept that through Humanity’s I AM Presence this Activity of Light will be permanently sustained, increasing daily and hourly the maximum that Cosmic Law will allow with every Breath we take.

Beloved Father-Mother God, we ask that you now Breathe the highest possible frequencies of Divine Love, Oneness and Reverence for All Life into every person’s Heart Flame.

In Oneness with the I AM Presence of every person on Earth and the entire Company of Heaven, we now affirm within the Divinity of our Heart Flame:

“I AM the Cup, the Holy Grail, through which the Light of God now flows to Bless every particle and wave of Life evolving on this precious Planet.

“I AM my I AM Presence, and I now invoke my Father-Mother God to Breathe their Infinite Light into our Planetary Grid of Transfiguring Divine Love.  As this exquisite Light blazes through the Grid of Divine Love it bathes the Earth and expands every person’s Lightwork a thousand fold.”

This unfathomable influx of our Father-Mother God’s Infinite Light lifts every atomic and subatomic particle and wave of Life on Earth into a Higher Order of Being.  (pause)

As this wondrous Light is anchored within the Divinity of every person’s Heart Flame, it expands into the Heart Flame of every other person on Earth unifying Heart Flame with Heart Flame. Through this amazing Activity of Light, the I AM Presence of every person becomes a power point of Divine Love and Oneness unified in consciousness with the I AM Presence of every other person.

Through the unified efforts of Heaven and Earth, we are empowering our Planetary Grid of Transfiguring Divine Love. This Forcefield of Light is extending from the very depths of Humanity’s pain and suffering into highest frequencies of the 5th-Dimensional Realms of God’s Infinite Light. This Grid of Transfiguring Divine Love is the Bridge to Freedom over which this Blessed Planet and ALL her Life are now Ascending into the 5^th-Dimensional Realms of Perfection on the New Earth.

Through this Activity of Light, we are reclaiming our Divine Birthright as Sons and Daughters of God. We are truly becoming Love in Action. We are collectively changing the core vibration of the primal Light substance that has gone into creating the present negative conditions that are surfacing all over the Planet to be healed and transmuted into Light.

This Activity of Light is bringing into tangible form the archetypes for the patterns of perfection for the New Earth. These patterns are now flowing into the Heart and Mind of every man, woman, and child through the Mental and Emotional Strata of this Planet.

The I AM Presence within every person is the Open Door for these resplendent patterns of Divine Love. We are the CAUSE of Divine Love now being established on Earth. Together we are setting in place the basic Spiritual Forces of Divine Love over which the Earth and ALL her Life are at last Ascending out of our long exile in darkness into the 5th-Dimensional Realms of Light associated with the New Earth. The Love of God is now thriving on Earth through each us, and through the I AM Presence of every person on the Planet.

Through this Activity of Light, Humanity is being raised into a profound Awakening of Supreme Love Consciousness. We are, here and now, the Masters of Love we were always destined to be. We are Beings of Love, accepting responsibility for Loving this sweet Earth and ALL her Life FREE. We are One with this Blessed Planet, and the Planet is One with us.

Our Father-Mother God and the Company of Heaven are now intensifying their Light through every person’s Heart Flame. This influx of Light is lifting ALL Humanity into a higher octave of Divine Service. Every person on Earth is being permanently invested with a Cosmic Forcefield of Divine Love. This forcefield is initiating each of us into a Higher Order of Service to Humanity and the Light, as our Lightwork is being intensified a thousand fold through our Planetary Grid of Transfiguring Divine Love.
 

Beloved Father-Mother God, we accept that this Activity of Light is being God Victoriously Accomplished, even as we Call.   And so it is!

Beloved I AM, Beloved I AM, Beloved I AM That I AM.

If you have the Heart Call to do so please help our Father-Mother God’s Clarion Call tangibly reach the maximum number of Lightworkers by forwarding this email to your mailing list. Please share on Facebook, Twitter and any other social media you have access to.

A Christmas Message

A CHRISTMAS MESSAGE
A Christmas Message from Archangel Gabriel ~ Shanta Gabriel ~ December 23rd.

 As channeled through Shanta Gabriel  http://www.thegabrielmessages.com/

Hark.  The Herald Angels are singing. Can you hear the Angel voices? They are inviting you into their midst. They are calling you to rejoice in the Divine Love and Light streaming onto the planet during this special time of Christmas. Receive it into your being and shine this blessed Light out into the world.

These times call for greater commitment to the truth of Happiness. We are assuring you that there is no requirement for suffering. In fact your birthright is to live in harmony with the earth, to feel Divine Love in your being and the power of Life Force surging through you in ever increasing waves. This is the energy of the Christ Light. Allow it to spark every cell in your body and increase love in your being. As you do this, you become a radiant light. It shines forth from you and you become the Light to the world that the earth needs right now. It is a choice for you to make moment to moment. It requires only the intention for harmony in your life, and a mental flip of the switch within your thoughts.

Becoming a Light to the world is not arrogant. When one carries conscious awareness of these truths, it becomes your duty. As the apparent darkness of chaos and fear are so obvious, what could the world need more than Light? At this Christmas time the Light of the Christ energy is more available than ever before. This Light-filled blessing carries the energy of Divine Love into your heart and out into your world.

Feel this Light in you and share it with others. It holds the divine qualities of Wisdom and Love. Send Light to your government and the world leaders. Send Light to areas of suffering in the world. Send it to those who work hard to ease the suffering in those places. Send Divine Light to the environment, and to all the living beings that are not human on this beautiful planet. This Light-filled energy brightens and reconfigures the power that inspires you into Heart Centered Action. Working with Divine Light is one way to bring harmony to the world and overcome despair. Light carries God’s Love which is the greatest healer of all and it will change the course of the world’s activity when enough of this energy is focused. And remember, you are not alone.

And Then There Were Angels

As we celebrate the gifts of this Christmas season, there are many who remember the Angels during this time more than at any other time of the year. There are legions of Angels gathering ever nearer the earth now, drawn by the prayers and the thoughts of so many people. This is a tremendous blessing that opens your heart to more love and allows your mind to receive a greater level of Grace.

In ancient times, people were very receptive to the presence of Angels. The Bible is full of references to Angelic appearances. However, at no time is there more mention of the presence of Angels than before the birth of the Christ child.

Angels foretold the birth of the Christ onto the earth, and appeared to the wise men before they made their journey.  There is a mass awakening of spiritual consciousness on the planet at this potent time in history as well.  As people turn more and more to prayer, and seek Divine Love in their lives, the dire prophecies lose their power.  When you believe that peace can be present on earth, your faith touches others, and they begin to believe.  In this way, thought-by-thought, one by one, the people of the earth will begin to experience the peace that passes all understanding.  Never doubt the power that one person can hold.

As people turn toward Christmas, hearts are opened for the birth of the Christ Light within.  This light filled energy brings the qualities so many seek to receive.  There is an expansive sense of Joy; a deep abiding Peace and more Love than has been experienced at any other time of the year.

You can call upon Divine Light to illuminate your mind and heart so you act as a Beacon of Light.  The earth needs all those souls who believe in the power of this mass awakening.  As you open to new possibilities in your own life, you may feel the protective presence of Angel’s wings surrounding you in love.  As you become aware of the power of Divine Love, it allows the Christ Light to awaken within you and radiate from you. You then become a Light to the world.  This is the way to Peace on Earth and Good Will among all beings.

Angels are here now in this precious time. Once again these messengers from God are saying, “Rejoice!  Awaken to the birth of the Christ Light within you. Feel our wings surrounding you in Divine Love and know that you are not alone.”

Let this Divine Light fill you now. Allow it to enlighten your mind and heart, and illuminate every cell and fiber of your being. Your willingness and openhearted acceptance of this Divine Love blesses your body, mind and spirit. Receive the gift of the Angels and the Light of the Christ is born within you this Christmas season.  Let Divine Light shine forth from you so there may truly be Peace on Earth and Good Will between all beings.

And so it is.

MESSAGE OF THE GOLDEN LIGHT

Message of the Goldenlight ~ Planetary and Galactic News Update, 12-12-17

December 12, 2017 By The Golden Light Channel

“May the light from the All That Is, shine within you and shine forth from you now and always.”

Pleiadian Council through Goldenlight ~ Planetary and Galactic News Update, 12-12-17
By Goldenlight, www.thegoldenlightchannel.com
Message ©The Golden Light Channel, thegoldenlightchannel.com. Please include this copyright and credit at top without alteration when re-posting this message
Greetings, we are The Pleiadian Council and we wish to bring you planetary news of an energetic nature which will assist you in expanding your awareness and increasing your frequency in tandem with the planetary energetics and frequency levels which are raising very quickly now.
As we mentioned in previous messages, your planet which has been under quarantine for many eons is soon to come back into the galactic fold so to speak, as it is liberated from centuries of domination by the denser forces of the universe. We of the Pleiadian Council are working hard behind the scenes to help bring this about.
Things are being cleaned up energetically now by what we call “the light scrubbers”… we are a team that assists in scrubbing clean the dense pockets of energy in the universe, pockets which have choked and suffocated planets and their inhabitants, cutting off their vital life force. This scrubbing and cleaning of the lecherous forces of dense energy from your planet is also being assisted by other star nations such as the Andromedans, Lyrans and benevolent Orions (1), as well as other higher dimensional beings, ascended masters and archangels. Benevolent inner earth factions are also coordinating this effort with us. Indeed, Source Creator itself, of which all beings everywhere are offspring, wishes this great cleansing, awakening, and ascension of your planet to be so, as the entire universe is going through an upgrade, and your planet is an integral part of this.
The best way that those of the light can now assist is to uphold the breaking through of the truth that is coming to light, to continue to work on one’s own spiritual growth and the raising of one’s frequency. If each person on earth focused on raising their vibration and frequency —and this is being accelerated by the higher dimensional frequencies flooding your planet — then the raising of the light quotient on your planet thus increases in tandem and exponentially. So each person’s raising of their consciousness and frequency thus helps the entire planet to become one of higher frequency, and one in which the denser energies cannot survive. Hold this vision within your minds eye as you focus on this raising of frequency for all on your planet. Mother Earth Gaia is already carrying this higher dimensional vibration, and your planet is already surrounded now by higher frequency energy, so your task is to attune yourself to it. Can you hear the higher dimensional frequency that now surrounds you? It is a high pitched tone which is recalibrating your human bodies to attune to the higher frequencies. So this is happening on a physical level somewhat automatically, and as you also adjust your mind and spirit (consciousness) to it, you are then attuning your whole being to these higher frequencies.
Your planet is going through a major shift as we have described in previous messages and you have chosen to be there now to be a part of this great shift in consciousness and light level quotient that is a planet-wide happening.
We will keep this message brief today but will be back again soon through this channel of Goldenlight to bring you more higher frequency planetary news. In the meantime, we are continuing our clean-up of the denser energies behind the scenes. Your awareness of this assists us in doing so. Many of you, including the transcriber of this message Goldenlight, carry the Pleiadian genetics which were seeded on your planet before the time of Lemuria and Atlantis. So you are a part of this entire upshifting in the energetics of your planet. The star nations assisting with this are in essence your star families, as your genetics come from these higher dimensional civilizations. So you are all a part of the grand plan, and the raising of your awareness and consciousness of all that is happening helps you to be in alignment with the grand divine plan.
We thank you for your contribution and service to the light and to the well-being of your planet.
May the light from the All That Is, shine within you and shine forth from you now and always.
We are,

The Iroquois Thanksgiving Address

The Iroquois Thanksgiving Address

The Iroquois Thanksgiving Address is believed to sustain the Earth.  By giving thanks, Life continues to grow and Thrive. But when we fail to show respect and gratitude, then the Earth will end as we know it.  Lets remember to stand in Gratitude every day; on the first awakening and before sleep. 
As spoken at the United Nations; "Cry of the Earth Summit", Nov. 22, 1993.  

THE IROQUOIS THANKSGIVING ADDRESS

These greetings affirm the linkage of we humans to one another and our relationship to the environment and the universe.  From time immemorable,  humans knew and felt relationship to all life, but that sacred hoop is broken, that relationship of wholeness must be regained.

By Chief Jake Swamp, Mohawk

"Ohenton Kariwahtekwen"

GREETINGS TO THE NATURAL WORLD

Pathway of Peace Community - Shamanism

SHAMANISM
Shamanism is an ancient practice of spiritual healing. They are the oldest known healers. They travel out of ordinary life into the spirit world of animals, the garden of eden, guides and celestial beings. Many who become healers have the archetype, the Wounded Healer. They have a deep wound that causes transformation; life is altered, the wounded healer becomes the healer. We become healers of the Soul, and the practice of healing lies in the heart. Call for Soul Retrieval and begin the healing journey of transformation. Caroline Dawley 727-738-0223 lv. a message.

The Great Law of Peace

Chapter 6; THE GREAT LAW OF PEACE

The Confederacy arose centuries ago among separate warring communities as a way to create harmony, unity and respect among human beings. Implicit to Iroquois political philosophy is a commitment to the highest principles of human Liberty, where laws in recognition of individual liberty and justice surpasses any European parallel. Faithkeeper, Oren Lyons, an Onondaga, states that "the Great Law of Peace includes freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and the right of women to participate in government.  Separation of power in government and checks and balances within governments are traceable to our Iroquois Constitution, ideas learned by colonists".   The central idea underlying Iroquois political philosophy is that Peace is the will of the Creator and the ultimate spiritual goals and natural order among humans. The principles of Iroquois government embodied in the great law of peace or transmitted by a historical figure called the Peacemaker, his teachings emphasize the power of reason to insure righteousness, justice and health among humans. Peace came to the Iroquois not through war and conquest but through the exercise of reason guided by the spiritual mind. The Iroquois League is based not on force of arms or rule of law but spiritual concepts of natural law applied to human society. By David Yarrow

At the planting of a Tree of Peace in Philadelphia in 1986, Mohawk Chief Jake Swamp explained, "in the beginning when our Creator made humans, everything needed to survive was provided.  Our Creator asked only one thing, never forget to appreciate the gifts of Mother Earth. Our people were instructed how to be grateful and how to survive."

When the people forgot the Original instructions to survive, there was a dark age of war, and injustice.

 "The creator sent a Peacemaker with a message to be Righteous and Just and make a good future for our children, seven generations to come. He called all warring people together and told them as long as there was killing there would be no peace of mind. There must be an effort by humans for peace to prevail.  Through logic, reasoning and spiritual renewal, he inspired the Warriors to bury their weapons, and atop planted a Tree of Peace.”

Legend of the Peacemaker and the Founding of the Great Law of Peace

A long time ago an event took place on the shores of Onondaga Lake in upstate New York that was to have far reaching effects even to this day.  The event took place long before written history, long before Europeans came to America.  It was so paramount in fact that we can envision all of creation being present.

There was much bloodshed among the five separate warring nations that the people lived in fear of death.   Everywhere there was death, mourning and pain, the people had no hope. The Peacemaker, born of a virgin, heard of the distress of the people and was sent by the Creator to put an end to war.  He held the Vision for Peace on Earth.

Traveling from nation to nation he first came to a house where a woman lived on the path between the warring nations. As she listened to the Peacemaker speak of his idea of peace, a seed was planted in her mind and she took hold of the idea saying, "I agree with you, this is indeed good news that you bring."  Because she was the first person to take hold of the idea of Peace the Peacemaker honored her as the Mother of Nations and therefore the clan mother's held the honored position of holding the titles for the Chiefs and appointing new chiefs.

Again the Peacemaker set out to spread the good news from nation to nation saying, "tell your Chiefs the Peace is on its way.”  In the wilderness, the Peacemaker met Hiawatha, an Onondaga chief who was grieving the loss of his daughters. His mind was bent low in sorrow as he built a fire each night he wove words into wampum saying, “if only there was someone to console me with these words, I could get my mind up and see the light of a new day".  Hearing the words of Hiawatha, the Peacemaker came and speaking the words of condolence held in the wampum, he dried the tears from Hiawatha's eyes using the white fawn skin, wiping away the clouds from his mind, so he could think clearly once again. As Hiawatha listened, he took hold of the idea that there is no death.  The Peacemaker honored Hiawatha, the man of fire, to be his speaker and together they sent out word to all First Nation peoples to gather on the shores of Onondaga Lake to await the Great Peace that was coming.

The event was so great in time that it took many days for the multitude to gather around their council fires on the shores of Onondaga, the animals too drawing near.  Legend states that as the people gathered awaiting the arrival of Hiawatha a great darkness came over the sky blocking out the smiling face of the Great Spirit or the Sun.  Arriving in his mystical canoe made of white granite, the Peacemaker and Hiawatha arrived on the third day.  There were reports of a sound of great wings flapping overhead but because of the darkness, people could not see and fear surrounded them.

The Peacemaker gathered all the people who were at war in a great circle around the tree of War.   Selecting the Great White Pine of the North East woodland he then uprooted the tree and instructed the people to bury all their weapons beneath the upturned roots.  A stream ran beneath and washed the weapons away so that future generations would never pick them up again.  Then the tree was made to stand upright, it became the Tree of Peace with white roots spreading in the four directions. Placing the eagle at the top of the tree, the people were to be like the tree made upright in the Law, and to use the high mind of the Creator, like the Eagle that sits on top of the tree.   Appealing to the highest and clearest thinking of the Chiefs of the five nations, the only evil blocking the formation of the Confederacy was Atotaro, an Onondaga chief whose mind was so twisted that it was as snakes growing out of his head and his body had 7 crooks in it.  To complete the peace meant all of the people must put their minds together in agreement for peace.  To bring about the new man the new mind in Atotaro meant that the Peacemaker and Hiawatha by singing the song of peace so perfectly as to reach deep into the heart of the man and by appealing to his high mind, the spirit of the man, bring about the new being. Together the Peacemaker and Hiawatha traveled to where Atotaro was waiting for them; the Peacemaker sang the song of peace and Hiawatha explained the words of the Law, so that the spirit and the Law worked together bringing about the change of mind in Atotaro.

Traveling in the Whitestone canoe, the Peacemaker and Hiawatha set out to persuade Atotaro of the Great Peace. The Peacemaker singing the peace hymn and Hiawatha holding the wampum in his hand, thus the words of the Law were spoken:

“These are the words of the great Law, on these words we shall build the house of Peace, the Long House with five fires that is yet one household, these are the words of righteousness and health and power, the words we bring constitute the new mind which is the will of the Holder of the Heavens.  There shall be Righteousness when men desire Justice, Health, when men obey Reason, Power when men accept the Great Law.  These things shall be given form in the longhouse where five nations shall live in quiet as one family at this very place, Atotaro, where the Chiefs of the five nations will assemble, I shall plant the Tree of Peace and its roots shall extend to far places of the earth so that all mankind may have the shelter of the great law.".   from The White Roots of Peace by Paul Wallace

Moving swiftly, the Peacemaker and Hiawatha returned to the awaiting Chiefs, saying, "come quickly, the time is now arriving on the shore where Atotaro was waiting. The Peacemaker explained, “here is power, these are the five nations, their strength is greater than your strength but their voice shall be your voice when you speak in Council, and all men will hear you, this will be your strength in the future, the Will of a United People."  then the mind of Atotaro was made straight and Hiawatha combed the snakes out of his hair, the Peacemaker laid his hand on his head and said, " the work is finished, your mind is made straight your head is now combed, the seven crooks have been taken from your body, now you have a new mind, now you will henceforth preside over the Council, and shall strive in all ways to make Reason and the Peaceful Mind prevail. Your voice will be the voice of the Great Law. All men will hear you and find Peace. “Then the Peacemaker placed the antlers on the heads of the chiefs in sign of their authority and gave them the words of the Law”.

Quotes from White Roots of Peace, by Paul Wallace

Significance of the Great Law of Peace

Perhaps it was at that time when the Great Peace was established that the disc blocking the sun moved, and the Light of a new Dawn for the Human being and for all the sacred circle of life.  The Tree of evil was uprooted and the Great Law of Peace, was planted in the Planetary heart and consciousness of Mother Earth.

Using nature and the atmosphere of the forest to set the pattern for peace, life, unity and equality for eternity, the Peacemaker continued.  Holding the Sacred Wampum in his hand, he gave the condolence of the confederate lords appointed as chiefs to represent the 5 nations. Stating, "the designs signify the fourteen sachems who are the keepers of the Central Council Fire of the Five Nations Confederacy and it shall be the duty of Tadodaho, the principal Onondaga Chief and his colleges to be the keepers of the Great Council at Onondaga.".  The Central Council fire symbolized the Fire that never dies, the eternal flame of love that is the spiritual essence or "orenda" residing in the heart of every human being. 

Continuing, the Peacemaker spread out a great white belt of wampum under the Tree of Peace, signifying Purity and Peace.  And a great wing to use whenever any evil approaches the great white wampum, the great wing will be used to sweep it away.

Continuing, the Peacemaker said, "Now we shall combine our individual power into ONE GREAT POWER which is the Confederacy. And we shall symbolize the union of these powers by each Nation contributing one arrow which we shall tie together in a bundle which when it is made and tied together, no one can bend or break."

Therefore, bringing the people together in a Circle, the Peacemaker continued, "You Chiefs shall be symbolized as Trees of the Five Confederate Nations.  We therefore bind ourselves together by taking hold of each other's hands firmly and forming a circle so strong that if a tree shall fall on it, it could neither shake nor break it, and thus our people and our children and grandchildren shall remain in the circle in security, peace and happiness"

"And if any chief who is crowned with the emblem of the Deer's horns shall break through this circle of unity, his horns shall become fastened in the circle, and if he shall go through it, the horns shall remain in the circle and he shall no longer be a chief.  You chiefs shall always be guided in all your councils and deliberations by the good tidings of Peace and Power.  You chiefs of the different nations of the confederacy, I charge you to cultivate the good feelings of friendship, love and honor among yourselves.  I have now fulfilled my duty in assisting you in the establishment and pattern of the Confederacy, and if this confederation is carefully guarded it shall continue and endure from generation to generation and as long as the sun shines."

"The pure white wampum strings will be the emblem of the Council Fire and it shall be that when the firekeepers open the council, he will pick up this string of wampum and hold it on his hand while he is offering thanksgiving to the Great Ruler of the Heavens.  (The Formal Thanksgiving Address is offered before and after every council meeting.) And there will be a custom that whenever the annual confederate council meets, we will smoke the pipe of Peace."

"The Pattern for Peace given first Nations People by the Peacemaker is rich with symbolism. The Circle represents the Universe and all sacred life forms, within the circle all the kingdoms of Nature are represented as sacred, each with it'[s sacred point of view.  The Peacemaker set a foundation for Peace based on Communication.  That by putting their minds together as the "One Mind of Creator" all problems could be solved through reasoning.  As agreement is reached, the identification becomes one of Peace."

"The Great Peace was founded upon the sovereignty of a common Law of Truth, as statesmanship lies in the Will of the People for Peace.  First United Nations people were united in spirit for the purpose of Peace on Earth. Given the sacred duty as Peacekeepers, their function was to maintain the Peace in their own Six Nations while extending the Peace to all Nations".  Through their ceremonies, they maintain the balance of the Earth by reciting the Thanksgiving Address, giving thanks to the Earth and giving thanks to their Creator and acknowledging the Creator's Law of ONE.
