The six-and-a-half ton block of iron ore was deposited in the center of the room, the polished top of which is lit by a single beam of light from the ceiling. The light depicts “divine wisdom,” and the block depicts an empty altar representing “God worshipped in many forms”. . . .

The iron ore also represents the metal from which weapons are made and the New Age hope that through the power of meditation world peace can be achieved.

the center of the room he placed a six-and-half-ton rectangular block of iron ore, polished on the top and illuminated from above by a single spotlight. This block, which was a gift of the King of Sweden and a Swedish mining company, was the only symbol in the Room. Mr. Hammarskjöld described it as "...a meeting of the light, of the sky, and the earth... it is the altar to the God of all.... we want this massive altar to give the impression of something more than temporary...".

The Esoteric Meaning of Lucifer There are comments on the World Wide Web claiming that the Lucis Trust was once called the Lucifer Trust. Such was never the case. However, for a brief period of two or three years in the early 1920’s, when Alice and Foster Bailey were beginning to publish the books published under her name, they named their fledgling publishing company “Lucifer Publishing Company”. By 1925 the name was changed to Lucis Publishing Company and has remained so ever since.Both “Lucifer” and “Lucis” come from the same word root, lucis being the Latin generative case meaning of light. The Baileys' reasons for choosing the original name are not known to us, but we can only surmise that they, like the great teacher H.P. Blavatsky, for whom they had enormous respect, sought to elicit a deeper understanding of the sacrifice made by Lucifer. Alice and Foster Bailey were serious students and teachers of Theosophy, a spiritual tradition which views Lucifer as one of the solar Angels, those advanced Beings Who Theosophy says descended (thus “the fall”) from Venus to our planet eons ago to bring the principle of mind to what was then animal-man. In the theosophical perspective, the descent of these solar Angels was not a fall into sin or disgrace but rather an act of great sacrifice, as is suggested in the name “Lucifer” which means light-bearer.

A leaflet about the Meditation Room written under the direction of former UN Secretary General Dag Hammarskjöld (1953-1961) stated that the eerie lodestone altar in the room “is dedicated to the God whom man worships under many names and in many forms”. [Quoted in R.K. Spenser, The Cult of the All-Seeing Eye, 1962, p. 9.] USASurvival claims that the Meditation Room is off-limits to most visitors, including Americans, although America pays so much of the UN’s bills. But that’s not the worst thing about the Meditation Room. The truly disturbing thing about the UN Meditation Room is that its custodian is a mysterious but influential international organization called the Lucis Trust. According to Wikipedia, the Lucis Trust is a nonprofit service organization with headquarters in New York City, London, and Geneva. The Lucis Trust was incorporated in the United States in 1922 by theosophist Alice Bailey and her husband Foster, “to act as a fiduciary trust for the publishing of Mrs. Bailey’s 24 books of esoteric philosophy, and to fund and administer activities concerned with the establishment of right human relations. These include the Arcane School, a school for esoteric training, World Goodwill, Triangles, a lending library, The Beacon magazine, as well as the Publishing Company. In the early 1920’s the Lucis Publishing Company changed their name from Lucifer Publishing Company.”
