Article 76 - Elder Spirit

76.1
The Elder Spirit

The Elder Spirit is the leader of the local collective community, its head and prime representative. As such, the role should be considered as one of respect and dignity.

An Elder Spirit is a departed soul who the living community on Earth believes is worthy of such nomination. As such, the Elder Spirit shall be elected by those on Earth for a period of sixty four (64) years and it will be so in Heaven.

Only through spiritual intervention to a regional leader of one of the great orders of wisdom of the great religions shall a recast of name of Elder Spirit be permitted. In such an event, the regional leader shall then be required to resign their post.

76.2
Executive Power

By this Covenant, the Elder Spirit is vested with the executive authority to manage the needs and affairs of the local community through the selection or dismissal of wise counsel in the form of the Local Board of directors and administration staff of the local community.

76.3
The Elder Spirit as an instrument of power

By the very definition of the role, the Elder Spirit is the purest form of teacher and guide. It is for the value of the message and the discourse of knowledge. It is not for the closing or entrapment of mind, but the freeing of the chains that make us believe we are less.

The Elder Spirit embodies the very covenant of this Covenant and as such each Elder Spirit represents in themselves and their role an instrument of power- a living embodiment of this Covenant.

76.4
Ceremonial and positional power

By this Covenant, only a Elder Spirit may perform certain ceremonies, blessings as defined in this Covenant.

76.5

A Elder may remain head of the same Assembly for a maximum of four terms (200 years) at which time they must resign.

76.6
Belief Collective and Regional Collective

By this Covenant, there shall always been a maximum of one hundred (100) positions of Elders and therefore one hundred (100) Local Collectives associated with every Belief Collective and Ascended Master and therefore one thousand (1,000) Elders associated with every Saint and Regional Collective.

In turn, the three great faiths represent all the previous, current and future faiths of all men, women and higher order life as one.

Approximately 48,000,000 positions of Elders and local collectives are assigned to each of the three (3) great faiths. An Elder may not be elected to more than one local collective at one time.

76.9
Protocols and standards of the Office of Elder

By this Covenant, the Great Conclave are authorized to forge a formal set of protocols and standards regarding the Office of the Elder which relates to the detailed definition and requirements of operational procedure and function necessitated by such a high office.

These standards themselves must embody and be consistent with the specific articles of this Covenant and in turn must be approved by a vote of the Great Conclave. The standards shall be known as the Protocols and standards of the office of Elder.

In terms of the major subject matter dealt with by the Protocols and Standards of the Office of the Elder, the following areas must specifically provide detail and procedures consistent with the Covenant.
