Iran news; worldly matters do not have to be unworthy and shameful

1-28-2018   Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has taken $2.5 billion from its reserve fund to boost military spending again....He also revealed that $150 million would be sent to the Regime’s state-run television, which serves as a propaganda tool for the Regime and presents news as Khamenei likes rather than as it actually happens.  During the protests for example, they misrepresented the protesters as violent, neglected to focus on the reason for the protests, and praised the Regime for taking back control.

In late December, protesters took to the streets of Iran after the leak of a draft budget that heavily increased funding for religious institutions and the country’s so-called security forces.
It quickly spread across over 140 cities and took on wide-ranging issues with the Regime, including the Regime's support for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and terrorist groups across the Middle East, high unemployment especially amongst the young and well-educated, a failing economy especially in the wake of promises about the nuclear deal, Regime corruption, lack of human rights, and lack of democracy.
The sheer number of protesters meant that the Regime's security forces were unable to subdue the protests on their own and, in fact, had to relocate their proxy militias from Syria. At least 50 people have been killed, 8,000 are imprisoned facing the death penalty, and five have been tortured to death in jail, during the Regime’s crackdown on protesters.   https://iranfreedom.org/en/in-depth-reports/3393-iran-regime-increases-military-budget-in-spite-of-widespread-protests-against-it

121. The world is molded in beautiful principles....One cannot renounce heavenly beauty. The whole world has been given to man, therefore it would be far truer to speak about discovering the meaning of things.  
  When the manifestation of renunciation arises it concerns the most perverted concepts, the most harmful actions, but it is inadmissible to misuse a beautiful concept, the world, to describe a generalization of these abominations of ignorance.  Worldly matters do not have to be unworthy and shameful.  Great consciousnesses have taken great pains over the world.  It is unfitting to attribute to them the distortions of ignorance!  In studying the foundations of the fiery realm it is first of all necessary to have an agreement over the understanding of many concepts.  Is it at all possible to call gluttony or depravity or theft or betrayal worldly matters?  They are even beneath the actions of animals.  Animals know the measure of need, but if man has forgotten the measure of justice it is only because he has abandoned the world and has fallen into darkness.  Whoever does not reflect more worthily about the world is not able to distinguish right from wrong.  How could he comprehend the blessed Fire?  He would shudder at the very thought of the fiery realm. Let us advise friends to gradually differentiate the world from chaos.

279.  Yet very few will accept feeling as a force--for them feeling is a moth-wing.  With such an understanding the entire structure crumbles.  Consolation lies not in that someone has vouched for our existence but that our most forceful sending will attain the luminous goal.    -M:  Heart 1932

How fortunate it would be for the world if they only understood the law of correspondences!  How fortunate if mankind understood the law of accumulation!  For just as the trees grow a new ring each year so according to the law of accumulation the vibratory actions of each individual--his thoughts, his feelings, his words and deeds--accumulate year after year the corresponding energy-patterns until they become mighty tides of momentum.
When these momentums held within the subconscious recesses of being correspond with other more current momentums of like vibratory rate which appear on the surface of the individual’s world there is produced a powerful activity for good or for ill that may influence not only the individual’s life but also the lives of many.  Through correspondences and affinities individuals quite frequently tune in on the negative as well as the positive patterns which they have attribute their problems to others, when in reality the cause can be traced directly to their own previous momentums.

The disciples who beheld the ascension of Jesus were accosted by two men who stood by them in white apparel and said “Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven?  This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.”
And so upon the occasion of the ascension of our Messenger Mark L. Prophet I say to each and every one of you that when a son of God returns to the heart of God through the ritual of the ascension, by the law of cycles he must also return to the field of battle and to the world whence he came and over which he achieved the victory there to bring the glad tidings of the light of victory to all who walked with him on the homeward path.
Jesus’ promise to his disciples who would believe upon him was the accomplishment of greater works “because I go unto my Father."  Understand the Law and be satisfied thereby.  The light which lighteth every man that cometh into the world is the light that he must expand through the flame within the heart in order to achieve that glorious reunion of the soul with the Spirit that is known as the marriage of the Lamb. 
I say then to you, one and all, those who grieve the loss of a dear friend and teacher and those of you who are able to rejoice in his glorious attainment:  that because he has gone to the Father, he can add the momentum of his causal body to your own that you also might do those greater works which were promised to the disciples of Jesus.  Each time a son or a daughter of God ascends those who are ready to receive it are blessed by the presence of the Holy Spirit, the descent of the Paraclete; and the communion cup of Hierarchy is shared once again with the children of God who yet dwell in the valley of becoming.
The parting words of the avatar to those who gather round to receive the mantle of his victory must always be “It is expedient for you that I go away:  for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you."   Simultaneously, as the flame that is man rises to become one with the flame that is God there is showered upon those who understand the Law and who pursue its Spirit the contents of the cup of the Holy Grail.  The Comforter is the essence of Life, of the Holy Spirit, that fulfills the prayer of Jesus “Father, make them one even as we are one.” 
I exhort you, O chelas of the will of God, to realize that the door to heaven stands wide open because your Messenger and mine has opened it not only for himself but for you and for all mankind.  If he had but given the last energies of his life to the teaching and to the publication thereof, aye, that would have been enough to open the door, but by earning his victory through dauntless service and unquenchable love for God and man he paved the pathway before you that you too might ascend into the very Presence of God.        -Morya:  Pearls of Wisdom 16:10
