Elizabeth Clare Prophet Publishes Memoirs
On the heels of the release of Prophet’s Daughter, two of Elizabeth Clare Prophet’s children have published the memoirs of their Alzheimer’s-stricken mother. Erin Prophet announced the publication today in a press release. The official title of the book is Preparation for My Mission: Childhood Recollections. It was co-edited by Erin and Tatiana Prophet. Here’s the press release. The book is available in hardcopy or download on lulu.com. I’m hoping to read this and get a review up soon.
Bozeman, MT (PRWEB) December 24, 2008 — Diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease ten years ago, Elizabeth Clare Prophet was in the process of completing a childhood memoir. That memoir was published today, according to her legal guardian and conservator, Erin Prophet. Now age 69, Mrs. Prophet is in the late stages of the illness.
The book, “Preparation for My Mission: Childhood Recollections,” was edited by Erin Prophet, 42, and her sister Tatiana, 36, who are the eldest and youngest of Mrs. Prophet’s three daughters. Both hold degrees in journalism, and worked with their mother for years on the more than 50 books that she published during her life.
The book was initially slated to be part of a larger memoir, but that was never finished. Mrs. Prophet initially began working on it with Tatiana Prophet while on vacation in 1991. “I was 19 during that trip, and I’m so grateful for that time I had with her,” said Tatiana. “I didn’t realize then how important the work would be later on. Although she didn’t complete it, this story of her childhood is a gift to anyone interested in spirituality and psychology.”
“Our mother wrote this book at a stage in her life where she was reassessing. She was doing inner child work and trying to make peace with her parents. She also was committed to honesty and not sweeping anything under the rug,” said Erin Prophet. “In our editing work, my sister and I stayed true to her original intentions. We did not add anything that she hadn’t put in, unless it was something she had told us verbally that we thought would add to the picture. We checked out her facts, and arranged the material into chapters.”
In the book, Mrs. Prophet candidly describes the onset of her childhood epilepsy, her father’s alcoholism, and her spiritual quest, which led her through Christian Science to the teachings of New Age groups such as the Theosophical Society and the “I AM” Religious Activity.

I recently found this web journal, and reconnected with four very important years of my life (1986 -1990), that were part of 16 years of interfacing with "The Great White Brotherhood", "The Masters of Wisdom", or the "Ascended Masters". I never claimed to interact personally with one of those "fellows" (forgive me General El Morya and Kuthumi, Phd), and I sure hope they leave me alone till my life finally transpires.
On the other hand, I felt always connected to them, and I had a fair amount of "experiences". "visions", hyper- realistic "dreams", and personal interactions in time and space with TWO people who claimed to do their WORK. One of them was Elizabeth Claire Prophet. The experience of three personal encounters and exchanges was more than remarkable in this context. She was always around me mentally, as a living "idea", but the personal encounters, that were all three about my engagement with the WORK of the Great White Brotherhood were each very remarkable and archetypal on a universal, and even atheistic horizon of experience and cognition.
Let me say this: Part of the "idea", "person", "presence", "mission", "vision", or "work" called "Elizabeth Clare Prophet" has unmistakably become part of myself. It is a distinct flavor, taste, energy, power, personality, and I Iove her for this. I realize it now, while I am catching up with all these developments since I left in 1990, after the so called "debacle". I never saw it this way, myself, but I Ieft for technical (my status as a foreigner) and then for personal reasons (having to catch up with illusion the world of existence after 14 years of immersion into the light).
"Mother", I thank you, not for your "demise" in time and space, but for your and my presence, that we shared. "Live is measured not in time, bur in events…."

I think Eliizabeth Prophet at least gave us another view of life and confronted many people to think about why we exist on Earth. Indeed, why we even exist at all! I think she was a unique individual and at least tried to answer some of life's questions in her own style. Good on her for being different and having the courage of her convictions. I have gained some useful insights into life on Earth through her writings, even though I am a buddhist and practise yoga. At least she tried to make a difference!

I am writing here today to everyone & the Prophet Family,
I send my condolences & love to everyone who feels the loss of Elizabeth Clare Prophet in every way we have lost her & remember her, in her beauty & good intensions. She was as human as a human can be, not perfect. She has passed on & her loss is felt by us all especially over the years in what we have learned & had to face about her that we all were refusing to face. She will be forgiven & loved at the end bcauase for any of you who has not sinned cast the first stone.
Peace & Love to The Prophet Family

1.To the last 4 comments I recieved in my email though I do not see them here yet. ECP was no different than u or u wouldn't have followed her & each human being IS AS NATURE MADE THEM. Free will is a lie & an illusion. U, ur brain-ur whole body, is a natural computer that functions as it was designed to & as nature demands it to. So ECP's failures were not as she wanted them to be from childhood but as nature in her developed to adulthood chose for her to be. We r not as we r from childhood. Children reflect from birth such a sweetness that disapates as early as 2 yrs old. Science is yet to reveal this about human development. Adults humans r the problem of the world not the human race. Their ego's r developed in such a way that admitting wrong is so painful thay can't do it so it never happens. ECP's ego was enormouse so is every politians…no thk u to Governemnt, Religion, Adult control over children, a God or Godess, but most of all Lies.

2.Following like herds of sheep is what adults do to children to do from birth. Yet that is nature aswell doing it's nasty to create the reality we find ourselves in. U r as nature made u. IT in us descides when it will be so whatever that may be. Our body, brain, body chemistry makes those descisions for the I in us. Finaly one day, for some of us, like a blanket over our heads lifted we see clearly again. That's nature controling not a demon or is that what our ancestors were trying to say? R demons the negative body & mental chemistry they were refering to that ruin our lives. Evil - Eve ill - Eve's ill - Feminen - Darkness - Negative Polarity. Negative polarity is ill, caotic, out of control, disorginesed, imbalanced, mean, not nice…Life's a Riddle - unfold it. ECP tried to, so has countless #'s on this massive spherical round rock known to English speaking individuals as Earth. Pointing fingures is old & out of date & it can't be childish when adults do it to. ECP was an adult with the same ego's u all have. What u acuse her u did WITH HER…….get for real !!!!!!!!!!!!!! We all did it to ourselves……………! Move on !

P.S. Everyone should be angry at ur parents for teaching u to believe that God is good…it's their fault too, society, country, Nation, The Constitution - it mentions a creater, our educational system, our grandparents, aunts, uncles, the whole freaking family, books, T.V., college, Forget anyone? Can't blame the animal kingdom for making me following ECP….. ha ! that's for sure ! The natural world apart from the adult world never decieved me with religion, lies, government, guns, drugs - legal & illigal, misinformation, money etc etc etc….walking up right comes with a supiority complex. That complex leaves when Nature descides it will. Nature is in control & IT makes sure u remember that everyday. Nature is Diety - Diety is Nature - God/Godess - Masculine/Feminin - Light/Dark - Space/Stars - Earth/Sun - Man/Wo(b)man……who r u really pissed off at?

Sean Hello, I just finished watching your Mom's memorial done in Nov. I didn't know she did a Autobiography. How was she able to accomplish this?

Hello Sean
I too, am a former Summit University member and Keeper of the Flame who was baptised by your mother. The books that she penned always resonated with me as having a foundation in truth. A large part of my spiritual beliefs were built on these premises so it is devastating to hear you say tin your five part You Tube videos that she "made them up". For my own peace of mind and clarification and healing can you please elaborate on this?
It seems inconceivable to me that anyone could have enough imagination or source materials to make these up based on the sheer volume of material and the complexity of the subject matter. It would be a great gift to understand first hand how these truly originated.
I look forward to your reply.

Awe everything in Life is made up & life gave us the power to make up & so on & so forth. All made up- all true- all not true etc. Then there r those who will be in self rightous self proclaimed power & the people humans follow etc Science Governments Religions etc it's all structure, all very silly, it's all fear- power- dominance to guarentee security but thats at the end false all very rediculous. This planet (called something else in an other language) should come with a WARNING: Do Not Come We are Very Srtange & Stupid. We Are addicted to Arguing & Fighting Which Leads to Killing, Cheating, Stealing & Wars.
Life is a big made up reality of who can make up what next & it come off as EVOLUTION, SPIRITUALITY,COSMIC,SCIENCE agh hog wash dirty dirt dirt I just want to leave, die, pass on in PEACE DAMN IT..
