Marie Antoinette, Napoleon, Queen Victoria, the 13th Dalai Lama, and Joseph Stalin, on the one hand . . . and George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Franklin D. Roosevelt, on the other.
What makes them different?
The The first group rejected the warnings from the Secret World Government, known as Shambhala, resulting in their personal or their nations’ Antoinette was executed, Napoleon was defeated, the British Empire lost all its vast territories, Tibet was captured by China, and Russia turned into a totalitarian dictatorship.
But the second group heeded the advice given by the Secret World Government, resulting in the powerful development of the United States.
A secret for many years, this book by Helena Roerich — the favorite author of Elvis Presley — provides the first-ever evidence showing how the Secret World Government helped the United States during the Franklin D. Roosevelt presidency.
It outlines profound principles for becoming a true leader who can guide any nation to prosperity by building just relations between the people and the state according to the laws of cosmic beauty.

Helena Ivanovna Roerich (born Shaposhnikova) (Russian: Елéна Ивáновна Рéрих; February 12, 1879 – October 5, 1955) was a Russian philosopher,[2] writer, and public figure. In the early 20th century, she created, in cooperation with the Teachers of the East, a philosophic teaching of Living Ethics («Agni Yoga»).[3] She was an organizer and participant of cultural and enlightened creativity in the U.S., conducted under the guidance of her husband, Nicholas Roerich. Along with her husband, she took part in expeditions of hard-to-reach and little-investigated regions of Central Asia (1924—1928). She was an Honorary President-Founder of the Institute of Himalayan Studies «Urusvati» in India and co-author of the idea of the International Treaty for Protection of Artistic and Scientific Institutions and Historical Monuments (Roerich’s Pact). She translated two volumes of the «Secret Doctrine» of H. P. Blavatsky, and also selected Mahatma’s Letters («Cup of the East»), from English to Russian.
This was decent. Sometimes repetitive. Sometimes, maybe because of other things I've read, it gets basic. But I guess in a society that has lost the basic understanding of it's purpose and the purpose under which it is formed, you would need to remind those in leadership of the basics. Some excerpts:
"When will humanity finally learn wherein lies the true dignity of a people? When will humanity finally realize that the innermost spirit must be protected and that the bearers of thought can properly guide a nation, as a single source? Similarly, the annihilation of thought can deprive a people of its power or confirmed influence. Therefore, more than anything else, a people must take care of their Helmsperson, for a boat without a helm cannot save them in a storm. For this reason the great care of the people and every organizing process must be based on the Hierarchy, for every structure must be imbued with Power from Above. Thus, until an understanding of the Hierarchy is affrmed, humanity will sink into the ignorance and gloom of decay."
"What state can flourish without a great Leader? What established undertaking can exist without a Lord? One must truly understand that the concept of Leader represents the synthesis of one's highest aspirations. Hence only the concept of the Hierarchy of the Light-bearing Leader can give direction to spirit. So let everyone, one and all, consider well and remember the Power of the Hierarchy. Only through this understanding is it possible to advance. Only through this understanding is it possible to achieve. Let everyone remember that each stone thrown against the Hierarchy will turn into a mountain against themselves. So let everyone remember. This is how We proclaim the Leader-Hierarchy."
"Every spirit creates its own karma. Every people forms its own karma. Of course, nations are seeking a Leader, for even established prestige is insuffcient to keep from falling those who think falsely. Neither gold, nor flashy names, nor reams of worthless advice can save a nation. True fiery thought, and the fiery spirit of the Leader, will open up new paths. Therefore, during this time of cosmic perturbation, let the star of the Spiritual Leader shine brightly! Thus, on the ruins of the Old World, let the Great Realm of Light rise!"
Rise & Shine there is work to do to save our selves, first, and our nation/community/humanity, secondly.
This book is a must read for students of the Agni Yoga series. It's equally insightful and powerful, and similar to Agni Yoga, will leave the student transformed.
It was an interesting read, repetitive at times. Focusing on ourselves, truly looking within, and then looking to see how we can help humanity and be of service with leadership was a great takeaway. I also liked the glossary!
