DEAR READERS
The
following resource is for informed intercession all over North
America. From April 13th to May 5th, the Dalai Lama is visiting
North America for a strategic mission to extend the influence of
Tibetan Buddhism. He first comes to Pasadena, Los Angeles, to
teach, April 13-15, then stays on the west coast in Vancouver, BC,
April 17 - 20, visits Canada's capital city, Ottawa/Hull, April
21-24, and then Toronto, April 25 - May 5th. In Toronto he will
conduct a ritual called the 'Kalachakra' (see below), which is a
most powerful occult ritual to release 722 spirit princes upon the
land. This ritual has been performed four times previously in the
USA: 1981 Madison, Wisconsin; 1989 Santa Monica, Los Angeles; 1991
Tower One, New York City; 1999 Bloomington, Indiana. Santa Monica
and Pasadena are both near Hollywood where many stars and media
heads have been influenced. This is a serious call to prayer with
much heart searching for our own repentance for our own hearts
and the state of the church.

KALACHAKRA SUMMARY
The
Kalachakra tantra ritual is the key initiation rite into tantric
or Tibetan Buddhism. In the first phase of the ceremony, the Dalai
Lama asks the local spirits for permission to use their home.
Because the spirits typically do not want to cooperate initially,
the assisting monks use shamanistic prayers, music and dance to
subdue them. After this, the Dalai Lama receives permission to
proceed with the ceremony from Tenma, the earth spirit, on behalf
of all the local spirits. These spirits are invited to take up
residence in the mandala, or spiritual house, which has been built
for them. This is an intricate two-dimensional sand drawing that
through meditation appears as a 3-D dwelling - a door into the
spirit world. The goal of mandala visualization is to enter into
and become one with the spirit at the centre of the mandala. The
initiate thus yields control of himself to a spirit. The mandala
contains a central ruling spirit (Kalachakra) which is surrounded
by 4 or 8 more spirits, which are in turn surrounded by others
totaling 722. After the ritual destruction of the mandala at the
end of the initiation rite, these spirits, with their prince,
Kalachakra, are released over the surrounding territory. The
initiation event is completed when the Dalai Lama ritually
destroys the mandala after all meditation and initiatory rites
have been completed. The spirits are thereby released over the
land while the initiates retain the spiritual connection to
Kalachakra and his world, having internalized them through
meditation. The sand from the mandala is poured into a nearby body
of water and the spirits dispersed into the adjacent lands. This
has the following spiritual dangers that will be averted through
prayer:
Increased resistance to the Gospel
Increased territorial power of Buddhism over Canada
Reinforcement of anti-Christian sentiment
Pastors, congregations and ministries under more spiritual
pressure
THE
PRAYER CONNECTION
Many cities across the nation are mobilizing their
city wide prayer networks to be fully alert during the same time
period. Some are mounting round the clock "prayer walls", others
are making sure that at least one church building is open each day
on a rotating basis, so that prayer and worship meetings can be
held.
Pasadena (April 13 - 15)
Pray for the Body of Christ to mobilize to hold up
Los Angeles in prayer and for much wisdom for First Nations
leaders to hear what the Spirit is saying to the Churches.
Vancouver (April 17 - 20
Strategic prayer and worship will have the focus on
the Lord Jesus. On Monday, April 19th, a worship service is
planned in the city to lift high the name of Jesus during the time
when the DL is at the Orpheum Theatre. Peace Choirs across the
country will be coordinating their simultaneous praises for the
DL, so other cities are invited to worship Jesus at that time!
Vancouver is proclaiming a 21 day partial (Daniel) fast from April
1-21.
Ottawa (April 21 - 24)
Please pray for the 'Stand In The Gap' team to finalize their
prayer strategy. Other factors: Pressure on the Prime Minister to
meet with the DL. It is also possible that Chief Phil Fontaine may
welcome the DL on behalf of the Assembly of First Nations.
Toronto (April 25 - May 5th)
The local team in Toronto have formulated a
response with three primary streams, under the title "The House
of the King". Please check out the website for many details at
www.houseoftheking.com.
1. 24/12 Worship: Starting a day earlier than the other
ceremony, there will be a continuous stream of worship ascending
from a central location in Toronto, which will use local and
visiting worship teams.
2. Intercessory Prayer will be deployed out of the worship
environment, using different types of intercessory prayer, both on
location and out in the streets. Training is ongoing, and there
will also be an orientation session at the start of the effort and
at different times during the 12 days for those arriving from
other parts of the nation and the globe.
3. Outreach Ministry is also being developed to reach out
in love to the many followers of the Dalai Lama who will be
visiting the city at that time. Training sessions will be
happening before and during the event.
