http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucis_Trust The World Goodwill group, founded in 1932, is particularly important among Lucis Trust's activities, as it has been recognized by the United Nations as a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO), and is represented at regular briefing sessions at the United Nations in New York and Geneva. Lucis Trust is therefore a member of the UN Economic and Social Council. In part because of this presence of Lucis Trust in the United Nations System, along with explicit reference by former Assistant Secretary General Robert Muller in his writings to Bailey's philosophy, some have accused the UN of having a New Age ideology, and agenda. The organization was originally called the "Lucifer Publishing Company". However, the name "Lucis Trust" has been used from 1925. According to a statement on their website, the name "Lucifer" was used because, Bailey considered Lucifer, the fallen angel, a positive principle; as did, also, Helena Blavatsky.
