"On the Shores of Darkness There Is Light"

By Grace F. Knoche

Presented at the Parliament of the World's Religions, Chicago, August 31, 1993.

We meet together on the common ground of our humanity, witness to the commonality of mankind's search for answers to the terrible injustices of life and our yearning to be chalices, receptacles of the divine, however we name it. We are witness also to the wondrous truth that every human being -- indeed every spark of life in air, sea, earth, and sky -- is a living being, evolving in its own unique way toward ever keener awareness of its god-essence, yet all are one -- living and moving and having our very existence within the ambience of the Cosmic Purpose.

I chose the title of this address from John Keats' poem "To Homer," the blind minstrel. It was found among Keats' papers after his death:

Standing aloof in giant ignorance,
Of thee I hear and of the Cyclades,
As one who sits ashore and longs perchance
To visit dolphin-coral in deep seas.
So thou wast blind! -- but then the veil was rent,
For Jove uncurtain'd Heaven to let thee live,
And Neptune made for thee a spumy tent,
And Pan made sing for thee his forest-hive;

Aye on the shores of darkness there is light,
And precipices show untrodden green;
There is a budding morrow in midnight;
There's a triple sight in blindness keen:
Such seeing hadst thou, as it once befell
To Dian, Queen of Earth, and Heaven, and Hell.
-- The Complete Poetical Works and Letters of John Keats, Cambridge Edition, p. 119.

In his brief 25 years Keats -- poet, seer, bard -- suffered the agony and ecstasy of those who in moments of utter clarity are favored by the gods. Whenever the immortals used him as their instrument the springs of pure inspiration filled his soul and flowed through his pen. When the doorway closed temporarily, pain and loneliness were severe; yet it is apparent from his voluminous letters to friends and brothers and sister that even in the dark periods of illness and near despair, he hung on, knowing the light of divinity was there, and that once again its radiance would fill his being.

This is the message of theosophy, a message of hope: that within every one of us is the light of divinity, "the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world" irrespective of ideology or theology, or materialist bias. Theosophy tells of our divine ancestry going back many millions of years -- far longer if we reckon beyond this universe to previous universes; that we are not pawns of any god or devil, nor do we have need for anyone to intercede for us between our Father within and the Father without, because we are all sparks from the celestial fire at the heart of Being, brothers and companions of the stars and of the gods. Most wondrous of all, theosophy illumines what Plato spoke of, that the Soul -- using the term for the spiritual self here -- "is immortal, having been born many times, and having seen all things that exist . . . has knowledge of them all," so it really oughtn't to be difficult to recapture "out of a single recollection all the rest," if a person throws his heart and soul into it and does not give up -- for, as he put it, "all enquiry and learning is but recollection," remembering (Meno, § 81c, p. 360, Jowett trans.).

Indeed we have survived many deaths; for death is part of our life cycle, not the end of existence. Everything that is born here will die, and be reborn, whether an atom, mineral, animal, human, star, galaxy, or a universe. Eventually, there will be a flowering for every living entity, since birth, death, and rebirth constitute the cyclic rhythm of nature, which works ever to bring out the hidden potentialities of her children.

As stated at the theosophical panel this morning, H. P. Blavatsky was the inspiriting power behind the formation in 1875 in New York City of a society whose philosophic and ethical principles, far from diminishing in potency with the decades, have permeated the consciousness of humanity, so that we are no longer startled to hear allusions over TV or in literature to reincarnation and karma, to the ideals of compassion and, most of all, to brotherhood which has taken hold in a way undreamed of a hundred years ago -- even universal brotherhood which enfolds every tiniest spark of life.

This may be philosophically inspiring, but is it enough? Last Sunday probably most of you heard Dr. Gerald Barney's eloquent appeal at the close of his report on the crucial issues facing the 21st century. His question, "What Shall We Do?," directed to the leaders of the many faith communities, was also meant for every human being: to wake up now to the reality of what we of the 20th century are bequeathing to our children and their children. When problems loom too large for the mind to grasp, if we have a tradition or philosophy that moves us profoundly, the tendency is to want to tell everyone that it has the answers to humanity's ills; or, frustrated at their lack of interest, to retreat into our own private thought world. Neither of these approaches is productive nor wise.

The first thing to realize, it seems to me, is that societal transformation cannot be produced globally, en masse; it is the falling of the water drop that wears away the stone. To achieve the global transformation Dr. Barney and his colleagues of the Millennium Institute so ardently are working for, requires each of us to perform in the privacy of our own soul the miracle of self-transmutation. We start from where we are, candidly examining where we unconsciously are contributing to the downgrading instead of the upbuilding of human and planetary life.

"The key to success," said Lord Beaconsfield, "is constancy to purpose." But to expect rapid, large-scale self-transformation is unrealistic; not everyone can even begin to think in this direction. The negative aspects of human nature which have run strong for millennia will not disappear overnight. Too many lives are plunged in darkness and depression, and the world situation only compounds their condition.

Who of us isn't beside himself at times in contemplating the mountainous suffering and grueling pain we inflict upon our own kind? In a universe where beauty and order exist, in the farthest reaches of space as well as in the microworlds of the atom, why is it we humans with our marvelous intelligence and nobility descend so low as to commit deeds more bestial than any animal -- and always at the expense of the innocent?

Something is sadly amiss, either with ourselves, or with the cosmos. Why should good come with evil, beauty with ugliness, truth with falsity -- and the joy of birth be followed by the pain of parting, of death? What is the reality, apart from what we in our fevered state mistake it to be? Perhaps we need to view ourselves from a somewhat different perspective.

Why not image the entire drama of evolution, from the firefly to the polar star, as a dance of opposites, from the first point of light out of the immensity of darkness or chaos, to the extinction of our galaxy in a glory of light as it vanishes into the abyss of chaos and darkness from which, in long eons to come, it will again emerge into light as another universe? Planet, sun, galaxy, will come into active life again, each to continue its evolutionary journey toward self-awareness of its inborn divinity. The world's eternal ways: light is inherent in darkness; order, kosmos, inherent in chaos, as chaos is inherent in kosmos. The two are inextricably linked.

A few verses from the Stanzas from the Book of Dzyan on which H. P. Blavatsky drew in writing The Secret Doctrine, her masterly synthesis of science, religion, and philosophy, are pertinent here:

The Eternal Parent wrapped in her ever invisible robes had slumbered once again for seven eternities.
Darkness alone filled the Boundless All, for Father, Mother, and Son were once more one, and the son had not yet awakened for the new wheel, and his pilgrimage thereon. . . .
Alone the one form of existence stretched boundless, infinite, causeless, in dreamless sleep; and life pulsated unconscious in universal space, . . .
. . . the Universe was still concealed in the Divine thought . . .
Darkness radiates light, and light drops one solitary ray into the Mother-deep. The ray shoots through the virgin egg; the ray causes the eternal egg to thrill, and drop the non-eternal germ, which condenses into the world-egg. . . .
Behold, oh Lanoo! The radiant child of the two, the unparalleled refulgent glory: Bright Space Son of Dark Space, which emerges from the depths of the great dark waters. . . .
The one ray multiplies the smaller rays. Life precedes form, and life survives the last atom of form. . . .
This is thy present wheel, said the Flame to the Spark. Thou art myself, my image, and my shadow.

How closely this parallels the creation myths found in sacred traditions the world over, both in the formal religions and in the traditional lore of the aboriginal peoples of Africa, Australasia, and the Americas. A harmony as we approach their central essence, and a delightful diversity of expression toward the circumference -- affirming oneness in divinity, difference in manifestation. So it is that everything that is is born and dies -- be it a trilobite, meadowlark, daisy, or star -- lives its life cycle by virtue of the fact that in the secret space within its heart is the Logos, Brahman, God, name it as we will, without which it could not be.

The grand purpose behind this succession of births and deaths is the spiritual maturation of every particle of life. We humans are midway in the evolutionary stream between a god-spark unaware of its destiny and a fully evolved god. Nature utilizes whatever she has to hand, even the most despicable situation, to accomplish her purpose -- to bring about change, transformation, a transmuting of base qualities into the gold of compassion. We are one humanity, and no one is immune from the tragic warp that is manifest in our mental and psychological outlook. Just so, we are closer than we think to the gods, and never have we been bereft of spiritual guidance: every people we know of has received, either through revelation, tradition, or from an inspired teacher, a portion of sublime Inspiration from the guardians and protectors of humanity who hold in their keeping the sacred wisdom that is our human birthright.

"The stars shine brightest when the night is darkest." Assuredly the present global upheaval is bringing to birth a profound stirring of humanity's conscience and a larger awakening of spiritual responsibility -- something of inestimable worth for the future of the human race. No matter how frightening and horrible the present circumstances, nature's recorders are ever alert, reacting to every action in equal measure. The wheel of life turns ceaselessly, and day becomes night, and night disappears to herald another day.

By the same token, serenity and courage are inherent in the frantic hurly-burly of life, and at the core of deep depression is an atom of light. It may help to think of the yin-yang symbol: in the dark half is a small point of light; in the light half a small point of darkness. Let the atom of light in the dark portion grow and grow in imagination, until a fresh strength and a larger self-confidence are felt, a bulwark against the coining dark cycle when we tend to feel overpowered. Gradually, thoughts of light during the dark periods will become stronger and stronger; and yet when brighter cycles return it will be easier to avoid overconfidence and realize that these too will pass. Balance, equal-mindedness, difficult to attain, is nonetheless a worthy goal.

Is there, then, something amiss with the cosmos? While undeniably there is imperfection -- there would be no incentive to growth if all were perfection -- there is no basic flaw in the universal design, in nature, in the thinking and doing of those spiritual beings that use stars and planets for bodies, our earth as one of their mansions, and human beings as the human phase of their evolutionary unfoldment. In the context of infinity, nothing is irreparable, nothing without hope:

Aye on the shores of darkness there is light,
And precipices show untrodden green;
There is a budding morrow in midnight;
There is a triple sight in blindness keen:

Theosophy as presented by H. P. Blavatsky in a beautiful synthesis of the world's accumulated wisdom, the natural inheritance of the race, assures us that at the heart of Being there is harmony, beauty, truth, and that universes come into being and disappear at regular intervals, each universe itself a host, the open doorway for trillions of living beings -- monads, if you will -- to descend as shooting stars to earth to take residence in human souls and then, growing greater still, become fully aware divinities.

Clearly, if humanity as a whole had such a vision, new hope would be ours, a new sense of purpose, a fresh insight as to who we are, why we are born on earth, and how we relate to our planet, to sun, moon, and stars. Theosophy has a long arc, as it takes in the evolutionary history of mankind going back beyond the origin of our present humanity. Could we soar far above our earthly cares with the eye of spirit, we would encompass the vast panorama of our human kingdom or life-wave stretching far into the past; and on our present earth we would see it awakening millions of years ago from its dream/sleep of innocence into awareness of its humanhood. Mind, intelligence, the vision of what could be, conscience, will, and desire, all claimed priority of attention. It was a wondrous period, as long as we heeded the counsel of the gods, "king-instructors" they were called. It is the old story, how in the arrogance of youth (as a race we were very young indeed) we brushed aside their guidance and they retreated from the scene, became "invisible" and hence "nonexistent" to us.

Yet their "withdrawal" was timely and necessary in order for us to develop as independent, self-reliant beings -- just as parents must in time step aside to allow their children to make their own decisions and mature through meeting the consequences of their choices. But the gods are never far away -- if they were, poets, musicians, artists, writers, and the millions of ordinary yous and mes would have to soar high indeed to capture their attention. Let us remember that not only do the gods exist "outside" us in nature, but that every life-particle, every life-atom in every kingdom, is a temple of a living god, and that we are, in truth, imbodied divinities.

What specifically has theosophy to offer humanity in the closing years of our turbulent and war-ridden century? A philosophy that has been checked and verified by generations of seers who have had the courage, stamina, and love to prepare themselves through lives of discipline and training to comprehend the spiritual laws that work through and govern the physical universe. A philosophy that stands the strains of adversity; that wears well in proportion as it is lived and practiced, for it yields an ever-deepening confidence in the invincibility of the human spirit.

Whether theosophy will bring vision, insight, understanding, with its body of rich philosophical doctrines, depends upon ourselves. Blavatsky made clear at the outset in her first periodical, The Theosophist, that "The very root idea of the Society is free and fearless investigation." This is why those who join a theosophical organization are not obligated to believe any of the doctrines; they are there for the taking or leaving. The only primal requisite is an acceptance of the principle of universal brotherhood and a willingness to try to think, speak, and act humanely in every circumstance.

The student is absolutely free to search and inquire and come to his or her own perception of values. The general tendency is to look for answers outside ourselves; we forget that no system of philosophical truths or of religious insights -- including theosophy -- is intended to provide specific prescriptions for every mental, psychological, or other symptom, but rather to reawaken us to the broad ethical and moral ideals on which the universe and every part of that universe is built.

It is significant to me that Gautama Buddha placed "right views" first in the list of ethical requisites that comprised his Noble Eightfold Path. If the brethren could achieve right vision, right understanding, right views, then right speech, right action, and all the other requirements would in time be theirs. That is preeminently the role of theosophy -- to help men and women reach toward a higher vision, a larger perception of their dharma, their inner duty to themselves and to humankind.

We glibly quote the biblical proverb: "where there is no vision the people perish" -- usually omitting the second half: "but he that keepeth the law, happy is he." The Hebrew is terse, each word rich in meaning. Isaac Leeser's translation runs: "Without a prophetic vision a people become unruly; but when they observe the law (Torah), then will they be happy." To paraphrase: "Where there is no vision (no prophetic insight), the human community perishes (becomes unrestrained, separate), but when they give heed to the Torah (the spiritual Law), they are united (happy, steadfast, and all goes well)." The message is clear: unless we have some insight and understanding of our life's purpose -- why we are born and why we must die -- and of the meaning in pain and grief, a part of us does indeed perish, atrophy from neglect, from lack of use; a part of us becomes separated, alienated from our Source. Or, as the Hermetic writings put it, we feel lost, bewildered, "widowed of the presence of the gods."

A theosophic understanding may help us see our karmic circumstances no longer as an unjust fate but as an opportunity for growth, or for a clearing of the way before greater responsibilities can be ours. If the theosophic philosophy is cosmic in reach, all the better, for these ideals and teachings illuminate human problems precisely because we are the offspring and miniature counterparts of the universe, each of us containing in the small all that our cosmic parent does in the large -- all of which emphasizes our close inner connection with every aspect of life, and as such is of great practical value in our lives.

The 1993 Parliament of Religions has taken on a challenging role, to cast the searchlight of spiritual vision on the critical problems facing us today: problems that have demanded short-term palliatives until long-range solutions can begin to take hold. In our complex world this is no simple matter; yet if every human being were for one month and then another month, and another -- starting one day at a time to put aside his or her personal wants and give every ounce of thought and energy to the greater good of the whole, whatever the circumstances, wise solutions would become clearer.

One signal step in this direction would be never by the merest thought, word, or deed, to place an obstacle in the path of another. This may seem only negative help -- but seriously practiced it could become a potent force for good, a dynamic expression of the Golden Rule which every tradition enjoins in one or another form. We pass off such individual spiritual measures as impractical, not applicable in the "real" world. Yet it is in just this manner that genuine progress for humankind could most quickly and effectively be made. What is more, people with the needed training and the daring and will to transform the "impossible" into workable solutions would be there, ready and waiting to serve.

We close with the prophetic lines of Keats, sent to his artist friend, Benjamin Robert Haydon, in November 1818, three years before Keats died (The Selected Letters of John Keats, edited with an Introduction by Lionel Trilling, 1951, pp. 60-1). As I read these lines, think how they could have been written for today!

Great Spirits now on Earth are sojourning

* * *

And other Spirits are there standing apart
Upon the Forehead of the Age to come;
These, These will give the World another heart
And other pulses -- hear ye not the hum
Of mighty Workings in a distant Mart?
Listen awhile ye Nations, and be dumb!

A Few Words of Advise

What I have attempted to do here is condense into a few pages what takes YEARS to master. And, I might add, this information barely skims the surface of the subject!

Unfortunately, since this medium (internet) cannot possibly expand upon all that there is about the subject, particularly the spiritual and physical purpose and functioning of the chakras, I omitted them as well as the "detailed" breathing and visualization exercises.

But, because some information is vitally important to know and understand, I feel compelled to at least post some of it below in an effort to help some of you reach SOME level of awareness. IMHO, to know and understand this overview summary is vital if you are to pass your own Initiation. There's a little clue for you.

(1) There is physical and there is psychic energy. We attain physical energy through what we eat, drink and breathe, and psychic energy from our psychic (chakra) centers, which perform like transformers. These transformers tap the invisible Sea of Energy (air) that surrounds us.

(2) All energy vibrates at different frequencies, from the lowest (physical) to the highest (psychic.) Do you understand and comprehend this?

(3) Buy a yoga book and Learn the Secrets of Breathing. This is a very important part of the whole process - believe me! If nothing else, do these breathing exercises everyday. Your emotional well-being will change. I guarantee it

(4) Learn to be more AWARE. Ask yourself: Why did I feel good or bad when someone insulted me. Why should I be effected so? What was it that I said or did to cause that reaction, feeling, comment, etc? This is the way you begin to study yourself -- To Know ThySelf.

(5) As you become more AWARE of your words and actions, you will come to realize that you have adopted a higher standard, and that many of your worries, frustrations, and defeats will no longer trouble you.

(6) With Higher Awareness, you will gain a better insight into the way things really are and acquire the knowledge of CAUSES. With this valuable knowledge you will gain the ability to generate certain Causes and CONTROL their Effects. This is real POWER.

(7) You are the end product of your OWN decisions, actions, thoughts, ideas, desires, passions, etc. Karma is "the working of the Law of Cause and Effect as it applies to the results of decisions reached and thought held by the ensouled forms capable of FREE CHOICE."

(8) We live in a world of illusions created by our own creation. There is a cloud of "self-created" energetic beings existing in the finer grades of matter and hovering about you that, believe it or not, creates your karma. They are responsible for what you sense as "sensations." They translate the vibrations of what you think into what you know and recognize as sight, feeling, taste, smell, and sound. By your WILL, your emotions and desires are constantly influencing this cloud of entities around you. You generate and send out thought forms AND you act like a magnet and draw to you the thought forms of others. Reread (7) above.

(9) Your good or evil thoughts, desires, and intentions also have an effect on others. Happy people enjoy happiness, whereas misery loves company. Think about that.

(10) Conscience is the Beginning of Wisdom. Listen to the voice of conscience every time you are faced with a new and unique action and you will gradually come to know you have within you a never failing guidance that with use will keep you within the law. When this happens, you will begin to liquidate more debts than you currently contract.

(11) Learn to become humble in things you do and learn to live more for the sake of others and less for your own satisfaction. Meet ill with good will and hate with love, and disarm and disintegrate the harmful intentions of others. Avert bad personal karma. Neutralize the bad vibrations with good. I know this is easy to say ...

(12) You can modify karmic action by Knowledge of CAUSES. When you understand this, you can use Karmic Force to effect Karmic Results. With knowledge of the CAUSES you will be able to set up the EFFECTS in the future that YOU desire. Do NOT be a pawn of fate.

(13) By changing your attitude, you can change your future.

(14) Feel free to add new or modify the chakra exercises given.

(15) There are only a handful of esoteric schools in the world that can give you some of the training that has been revealed here. Keep in mind, very few people are even aware of these teachings, let alone the key to these secrets you now possess.

(16) Many of these teachings are truly ancient. The private records date their origins back to the time of the Ancient Egyptian Mystery Schools and the reign of Thutmose III.

(17) We learn by doing, so waste no time. If you would discover your hidden abilities and put them to work, why not start now. Thoughtful experiment and persistent striving are the keys. You must do the work!

(18) You have been given the techniques. So your rate of progress is now up to You. Reference: Wisdom of the Mystic Masters by Joseph Weed

Every month of the year has its own special angel. These angels help us learn from Nature the particular lessons and insights that each season imparts. Invite the angel of the month into your life each month to share in the incredible love and learning they offer. 

THE ANGEL OF JANUARY teaches us to look within, to take stock of ourselves and our lives. The January angel keeps us company as we ponder over those long, cold winter nights, helping us to be honest with ourselves and patient at the same time. Conveying the wisdom of an elder, the January angel takes our hand as we seek to glean understanding from our lessons of the past year. With this support, we can give ourselves both recognition and admonition in their turn. With this help we can chart a new course or alter our present one. We seek and receive companionship of the January angel to warm us through the winter of our introspection.

 

THE ANGEL OF FEBRUARY is the angel of patience. During the dark, blustery nights of February, when nature is in a deep chill and we long for a sign of warmth and life, this angel can help us learn to await with grace the first signs of spring. February's angel teaches us that winter has its own special peace, that being snowbound or staying indoors can give us a welcome respite from the hustle-bustle of life. In February, we can complete unfinished projects and prepare for new initiatives in the the spring. The angel of February brings us the gift of patience, helping us to enjoy the solitude and quiet of winter, guiding us to replenish our energy for the warm, busy days to come.

 

THE ANGEL OF MARCH brings us stamina and courage. As winter ends, we take heart from the crocuses that push their way up through the snow. The angel of March cheers us on through life's frozen moments, boosting our morale and helping us achieve new landmarks. With the angel's help, we dare to break through whatever barriers, whether personal belief or lack of self-confidence, that hold us back. We gather the will to launch a lifelong dream or begin the project we have envisioned but never dared to tackle. As the sun begins to warm our spirits, the March angel rejoices with us at the first signs of spring and lends us courage to prepare for a new and daunting, but also fulfilling task.
 
THE ANGEL OF APRIL is the spirit of rebirth. As the days grow longer and the sun begins to warm us, April is a time for new life and new beginnings. April's angel spurs us to test ourselves in new directions and to make ourselves vulnerable in the face of unfamiliar people and places. Encouraged by the April angel, we search for novel endeavors that will enrich our lives and bring new meaning to our career or family roles. The April angel teaches us to delight in each sign of awakening, in nature and in ourselves.
 
THE ANGEL OF MAY brings the blush and promise of spring. May's angel rejoices with us as we take heart at the sight of trees and shrubs in bloom and relish our anticipation of the fruits to come. This angel of spring reminds us that this is a time of awakening the seed within ourselves. Perhaps we have a deep longing, an artistic talent never explored or a friendship never quite attempted. The angel of May will help us to discover this potential, nurturing our spirits so we may dare to fulfill this hidden promise and bring forth the fruit of a life fully lived.


THE ANGEL OF JUNE helps us flourish and grow strong. June's angel teaches us to sustain our enthusiasm for the new projects and directions we started in the spring. In this glorious time of sunshine and growth, we learn to seek out the warmth of friendships and family ties, to help nurture the seeds we planted and become all that we were meant to be. The angel of June urges us to be steadfast in our intentions, to renew our dedication and to stay on the course.

 
THE ANGEL OF JULY brings a season of leisure, a time to play and replenish our energy. The projects we began in the spring should be well underway and growing stronger on their own. July's angel urges us to take the time to step back and observe what we have planted. The July angel encourages us to tend the garden of our life, care for what we have started and to be objective in weeding out the unhealthy or nonproductive elements. This angel of summer reminds us to nurture the people and things that bring us happiness, so that we can produce a crop of joy and fulfillment for ourselves.

 
THE ANGEL OF AUGUST is the angel of perseverance. The new directions we began in the spring may have become difficult to sustain. Like a garden that needs constant watering and weeding in the scorching August sun, our projects and dreams require stamina and determination to bring them to fruition. The angel of August helps us with unflagging energy to tend to the garden we have planted with such care. When the hot summer sun and the work of our lives demand too much of us, the August angel brings us the fortitude to stick to our tasks and hang in there through completion.

 
THE ANGEL OF SEPTEMBER helps us prepare for the harvest at hand. As the summer draws to a close, September's angel reminds us to pause and gather fresh strength because the culmination of a project often demands that one last surge of energy. The September angel brings us this boost, seeing us through the fulfillment of our tasks. This early-fall angel also helps us recognize the fruits of our labors and share with others the bounty of what we have created in our lives. In September, we take delight in our good fortune, whether in a garden, a career or a relationship, and share our joy with all whose support has made our harvest possible.

 
THE ANGEL OF OCTOBER rejoices as we reap the harvest of what we have sown in life. October is a good month to step back from our projects and our dreams and take a hard look at what we have actually accomplished. The October angel helps us to be honest in assessing what is good and what is not. With this help, we can clearly face the consequences of our choices during the past seasons. We will taste our harvest and reject that which is bitter or unripe, making note of what worked and what did not, and we will change for the better. October's angel teaches us that the greatest fruit of our personal harvest is in understanding ourselves.

 
THE ANGEL OF NOVEMBER is the angel of humility. This late-autumn angel brings a special gift that helps to deepen the meaning of the Thanksgiving season for ourselves and our loved ones. November's angel urges us to acknowledge and appreciate the supporting roles others have played in our lives this year and to even thank those that have taught us difficult lessons along the way. November's angel leads us to give thanks in a new way by forgiving old hurts and healing broken friendships. Thus we help one another to be truly grateful for our relationships and the richness they bring to our lives.


THE ANGEL OF DECEMBER is the angel of generosity. The December angel celebrates with us this time of giving gifts to all the wild creatures and to all of God's children. The angel of December leads us to join hands with all races and religions, recognizing that we are all children of the same creator, and sharing in the responsibilities of bringing joy and health to the earth. Inspired by December's angel we can celebrate this season of love by doing an act of kindness every day through the month of December, bringing warmth and light into the lives of others.

Humans are twelve-fold beimgs with twelve bodies -one for every planet or sign of the zodiac. All twelve bodies are of different density and function, and interpenetrate one another. Each of these bodies is anchored by energy centers called chakras which are in turn linked to the major glands of the body.

Humans are also the only creatures standing fully upright. This causes the rays of our hollow Earth's inner sun to stimulate either the lowest or highest chakras first depending on where you are situated.

Inner Earth inhabitants who stand upside down from us(see diagram below) have their heads always pointing towards the inner or central sun and receive full stimulation of thier higher chakras or energy centers(especially the Third Eye), whereas we of the outer earth receive full stimuation of the lower or base chakras. Middle Earth inhabitants receive equal stimulation to all chakras since there is an equal dispersion or diffusement of of light and enegry deep within the Earth's shell(see Etidorpha on this site). This is especially so at the zero-gravity center where the body is at perfect rest and there is no aging or deterioration. Gravity and aging are very interrelated.

The 12 Chakras or Energy Vortexes

Chakras work in pairs, so that what appear to be 7(frontal view) are actually 12(side view). The crown and root chakras(vertical) are part of the same axis, as are the other(horizontal) pairs.

Upper chakra stimulation results in individuals who are dominated by their higher spiritual and mental faculties, whereas lower chakra stimulation results in individuals who are ruled by their lower emotional and physical natures. Most animals are on all fours receiving equal stimulation to all their centers and are therefore healthier and more balanced than humans. Lying down(when resting or sleeping) permits equal stimulation of all human centers and is therefore highly regenerative. Standing on one's head or sleeping with a pillow under one's feet(instead of under one's head) not only increases the blood flow to the head, but increases crown and brow chakra stimulation which are responsible for our higher faculties. Your Pineal or Third Eye looks upward through the skull and ninety degrees all around for its light source but has more range(or access to the inner sun) when you are lying down.

Long ago, when the Earth was enveloped in a water or ice canopy(as it will be again in the future), the inner sun's rays were fully captured or contained within the planet's outer atmosphere resulting in greater and more uniform stimulation of all our vital centers. This, and the ideal climate and ecosphere gave us much longer, healthier, and more productive lives. When the canopy was destroyed or taken away, causing the The Great Flood, the deterioration process set in. The prana/manna which provided all of our nourishment needs on all levels, dissipated, and hunger and lust, and lower thinking and feeling set in.

 

Total regeneration begins at the physical level with a healhy environment, and this can only be when the planet's canopy is restored allowing the full measure of the inner sun's energy(what the bible calls the "holy spirit") to fully reactivate all of our chakras and energy centers and make us whole again.

KUNDALINI SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS

by El Collie

Many individuals whose Kundalini has been unexpectedly unleashed DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING, and the prevailing social ignorance about this multidimensional transformative process makes it hard to find medical or alternative health practitioners or spiritual advisors who recognize the symptoms, particularly when they are strongly physical. Many people know that the risen Kundalini flings open gates to all sorts of mystical, paranormal and magical vistas but few realize it can also dramatically impact the body. A large percentage of our old Shared Transformation newsletter subscribers reported long bouts of strange illness as well as radical mental, emotional, interpersonal, psychic, spiritual and lifestyle changes. Over and again we hear stories of frustrating, sometimes desperate visits to doctors, healers, counselors, etc. who neither understood nor were able to help with the myriad pains and problems catalyzed by raging Kundalini.

The following are common manifestations of the risen Kundalini:

• Muscle twitches, cramps or spasms.
• Energy rushes or immense electricity circulating the body
• Itching, vibrating, prickling, tingling, stinging or crawling sensations
• Intense heat or cold
• Involuntary bodily movements (occur more often during meditation, rest or sleep): jerking, tremors, shaking; feeling an inner force pushing one into postures or moving one's body in unusual ways.  (May be misdiagnosed as epilepsy, restless legs syndrome (RLS), or PLMD.)
• Alterations in eating and sleeping patterns
• Episodes of extreme hyperactivity or, conversely, overwhelming fatigue (some CFS victims are experiencing Kundalini awakening)
• Intensified or diminished sexual desires
• Headaches, pressures within the skull
• Racing heartbeat, pains in the chest
• Digestive system problems
• Numbness or pain in the limbs (particularly the left foot and leg)
• Pains and blockages anywhere; often in the back and neck (Many cases of FMS are Kundalini-related.)
• Emotional outbursts; rapid mood shifts; seemingly unprovoked or excessive episodes of grief, fear, rage, depression
• Spontaneous vocalizations (including laughing and weeping) -- are as unintentional and uncontrollable as hiccoughs
• Hearing an inner sound or sounds, classically described as a flute, drum, waterfall, birds singing, bees buzzing but which may also sound like roaring, whooshing, or thunderous noises or like ringing in the ears.
• Mental confusion; difficulty concentrating
• Altered states of consciousness: heightened awareness; spontaneous trance states; mystical experiences (if the individual's prior belief system is too threatened by these, they can lead to bouts of psychosis or self-grandiosity)
• Heat, strange activity, and/or blissful sensations in the head, particularly in the crown area.
• Ecstasy, bliss and intervals of tremendous joy, love, peace and compassion
• Psychic experiences: extrasensory perception; out-of-body experiences; pastlife memories; astral travel; direct awareness of auras and chakras; contact with spirit guides through inner voices, dreams or visions; healing powers
• Increased creativity: new interests in self-expression and spiritual communication through music, art, poetry, etc.
• Intensified understanding and sensitivity: insight into one's own essence; deeper understanding of spiritual truths; exquisite awareness of one's environment (including "vibes" from others)

• Enlightenment experiences: direct Knowing of a more expansive reality; transcendent awareness

Some people have told us they find the concept of "Kundalini" foreign and prefer to simply call this their "awakening," which is fine with us. But for most who contact us, the Kundalini explanation provides an important framework with which to accept and work with their experiences. We each have a unique way of interpreting, honoring and describing our spiritual wisdom. I do not believe there is only one right way to know or express the truth. Far more important, I believe, is to have an open heart and to be faithful to our own path, wherever it may lead.

We have also been asked why we do not put more emphasis on union with the Divine and God-realization, which are very much central to spiritual awakening. Since everyone experiences and interprets their mystical experiences differently and very personally, to make sure no one will feel excluded, we just speak of "awakening consciousness" or "transcendent states" on the ST Web pages. In our Shared Transformation newsletter, individuals with variant religious beliefs are welcome to (and DO) tell about their experiences of this sort. Some speak of God, Christ, Goddess, the Holy One, Spirit, or simply a magnificent Whole in which we all partake.

Also, for some people, profound spiritual realizations do not occur until months or years after the other signs and symptoms. Individuals who are having experiences of an obvious spiritual nature are usually more able to integrate and benefit from the process, regardless of how they may label it. But those who experience what seems to be illness or weird psychic phenomena often are very alarmed until they understand that they are not sick or crazy. And even the enlightening and beautiful experiences can be so powerful that people doubt their sanity. This is why the information and validation we offer through Shared Transformation is so valuable.

After having read all the changes and potential changes to the Earth, many may feel it is time to "get out of Dodge". Many will do just that, as they have chosen these times to make their transition. But many more will remain to be an integral part of the changes. Actually all of us are part of the changes. Whether you believe it or not, we have all "signed on" for this adventure, for as many reasons as there are humans.

In the channeling of July 15, 1992, the Sun God mentioned that I and others have traveled into the future. Indeed, I have been privileged to have taken such journeys, and have seen us leave the Earth to live elsewhere. I have seen some of what is ahead for the Earth and humankind. I have been allowed to see the Master Plan in motion.

Part of my divine plan is to write and teach the truths. Therefore, I am writing about some of my experiences as I become a part of the transformation of spaceship Earth as she prepares for her final cleansing. Where do each of us go and what is it like when we get there? This is some of what I am about to tell you.

After some thought about which approach to take, I decided to present my future travels as they impressed me, as I was there. It is written as it was happening - in the present. It is my sincere hope that each of you can feel my experiences for yourself and not be fearful of them. It is my intent to convey what it will be like for me to leave the Earth and all of my possessions behind, and to settle on a distant planet, in a new home and in a new surrounding. It is not intended to be presented as an emotional experience, although I certainly had mixed emotions. All those that I saw or talked with during my future travels showed no fear about what is to occur, or what had already taken place. With the many changes in Earth energies, as well as "777" universal energies, all changes are now occurring at an accelerated pace.

By the time the Great Harvest of Souls arrives, most of us will have a totally different mindset than now. Much of what you read here and hear from others will not be as "far out" as it may now seem.

This is not intended to be a thorough description of what I have seen and felt in the future. My journeys are not the purpose and focus of this book. Besides, as much as I have been privileged to see, I did not get the full "tour," at least that I can recall at present.

This is not channeled material, yet I asked for guidance as I have tried to communicate some of what I have seen, heard and felt. I also asked for assistance in editing what I have written. It is not my wish to exaggerate what I have been witness to, nor invent any of it, nor even use someone else's experiences. At my request, the Sun God has assured me that what I have written is as I have experienced.

 

Good-bye To Earth - The Journey Begins

It is obvious to all of us that it is time to leave. There is no fuss, as each of us quietly walks to the meeting place. We have only what we can easily carry in our arms. Most of us have come to realize the true value of letting "things go" and of trusting. There are many of us gathered around talking quietly. We are excited nevertheless, for this is a new experience for us. We don't know exactly what to expect. But it is a subdued excitement. At the same time we are not nervous. There are children and they play, yet our entire demeanor and movement is like a prayerful action, a real-life-ceremony. We don't particularly want to leave the Earth, since this is our home. We love the Earth. But we also understand the joyful feelings of the Earth as she is very close to taking that big leap into another realm of her own. She is graduating into the 5th dimension. It is necessary for us to honor and respect her desire to do this, and we must leave while she finishes the house cleaning that she must do as final preparation for her new look. We understand. We also realize many will some day return to once again coexist in love and harmony with the Earth. But for now, we are to continue our growth and development on another "Earth planet."

There is much space craft activity, as there has been for the last week or so. Our space friends have been busy with their final preparations to ease our concerns. We have met with our space friends as they explained what is to happen and how we are to be leaving. They are available anytime we need them. They answered all the questions we had. In fact our space friends have encouraged us to talk among ourselves to make certain we understand and have no more questions or concerns. Of course we all have concerns simply because it is a totally new experience. Our parents and teachers have never prepared us for times like these. We are truly the pioneers of new frontiers.

So we have concerns, but each of us seems to accept what is unfolding.

Many are really happy with it. There have been so many changes to the Earth that none of us are certain what might happen next. I have been more prepared than most for the Earth changes, but it is not always so easy to watch and feel the cleansing power of the rain, wind, the Earth quaking and poles shifting. You know deep down that these have been necessary for the good of Earth and us as well. However, we still live in the physical and some physical changes are easier to accept than others. Nevertheless, we accept and move on. We all prefer a quieter time, a time when we do not have to worry about the next major change that might affect our living patterns. At the same time most of us have adjusted very well to our new ways of living off the land and helping each other. There is much satisfaction and true sharing in doing this.

So we are ready to leave.

There are about 30 of us waiting for the craft to pick us up. I live in a thinly populated area. There are families of us clustered together.

This is also the way many of us want to continue on our new planet as soon as this is possible. As the craft quietly comes down for us, we become deadly silent. This is it, good-bye to our Mother Earth.

The craft lands close by and our space friends from the Pleiades come out and welcome us aboard. They are filled with great love for us and the Earth. Our small group is of a similar vibration, and we will be going together. Our space friends make us feel very comfortable with their loving ways. We quickly become more upbeat.

Our craft lifts off and in a few moments we are approaching the mother ship, the one that will actually take us on our journey. The mother ship is huge. I do not estimate dimensions well, but I will say it is 10-15 stories high and stretched as far as I can see, at least from my vantage point. It is 10 miles long, I am told, and the equivalent of 20 stories high. "There are others orbiting the Earth as well," says our space friends. The ships have been especially constructed for this great day. This is called the period of the Great Harvest of Souls. Each on the Earth will be taken aboard a similar vessel as the Earth is ready for her graduation. Those who are sensitive to different vibrations remark of joyous vibrations and music coming from the Earth. In fact many of us hear celestial music as it plays in the background. The Earth is not sad to see us leave, as she knows many will return in a relatively short time and live in perfect harmony with her as light-bodied humans.

I do not recall much about our flight to our destination planet. It does not take long. I am told that it could be quicker. The space friends on board are using this time for some teachings and assistance to those who wish to have it. We are given another overview of what to expect when we land. Since most are still used to routines, we are given specific directions on what to do. We are told not to worry about remembering everything, since there will be sufficient opportunities to hear it again when we land.

 

The Destination Planets

Each of us is taken to a destination planet that relates most closely to our individual vibration. Our space friends easily and instantly determine where each of us belongs. There is absolutely no way to fool them. We just cannot suddenly pretend that we are of a very "high vibration" and are super loving person. We are who we are.

Our space friends do not judge us. They simply direct each of us to the appropriate place, and they do so in a most loving way. A person of a lower vibration is not allowed to proceed to a higher vibrational destination. However, a person of a higher vibration may choose to remain in a lower level, in case they wish to remain with another individual, for instance. I did not see this happening, but we were told ahead of time that this would be allowed.

Those wishing to continue their growth, in what is still referred to as the "3rd dimension," are going to a planet occupied by people of similar beliefs. Regardless of each persons' vibration, we take with us the same knowledge, wisdom, love, lack of love, and attitudes that we had before our departure. These will be neither enhanced nor avoided, due to the move itself. If there is joy in seeing the Sun rise or set, this will not change. If there is hate and prejudice towards others or self, this too will not change, unless we decide to change these attitudes ourselves. If there is a need for material pleasures, this will also be reflected on the new planet.

There is a destination planet for those who are at the 4th dimensional level. These, too, will be given the opportunity to develop in a place where they are free from the vibrations of those in the 3rd and 5th dimensions.

There are also new homes for those who have elevated themselves to the 5th dimensional level and higher. Primarily these consist of those who have very deliberately raised their vibrations as the Earth has raised hers. Included here are those who have agreed to be the seed for those light-bodied humans who will some day return to live in perfect harmony with the planet Earth.

There are inconveniences for most, as you might expect under the circumstances, particularly those who have chosen the 3rd and 4th dimensional growth patterns. Those above the 4th are not so much into many of the physical realities of the Earth, so they adjust easier to their new home. Many of the Earth changes have helped prepare us for the kinds of experiences presented to us. Most seem to adjust very quickly to their new home. There is already some housing waiting for us, as well as other structures. All those who are positive and forward thinking quickly set aside their homesickness as soon as they realize the love and friendliness of their new home.

 

The Third Dimension

In visiting those on the 3rd dimensional planet, I notice how well adjusted and happy the people seem. My perception is that these people are still into their old paradigms, which is all right for them.

Despite having made their choice for this move, most were still skeptical about being able to maintain their old belief systems, including religion. However, I see many churches and places of worship already in use. So, it is secure and reassuring to them that those freedoms are to continue. Aside from the separation and loss of possessions, most appear to be seeing this as a very rewarding experience. It is bringing people together moreso than they could have imagined. All is not roses however, since overall attitudes have not changed, but many good things are already happening.

There are no obvious differences between this new home and the Earth. The atmospheric conditions are slightly different but everyone has adjusted to them. The air is lighter, much like that at higher elevations on Earth. Most people are still living in large, wooden community-type buildings, with winding stair cases - very Victorian and quite beautiful. These were already in place when they arrived.

By choice, many others have begun moving out into the countryside to establish their own homes. It requires much hard work, but this too, is one of the 3rd dimensional beliefs.

As I move about on the new 3rd dimensional planet, I see green trees, flowers, green grass, birds and hills. It is warm and sunny and the days are about as long as on Earth. As more and more of the "Earth systems" have been implemented, it has become even more like home. Since we left all possessions behind, everyone starts out with the same level of wealth and power. However, it doesn't take long for some to exert themselves in leadership and dominating roles. There are plenty of local, national and inter- national leaders and "government" heads from Earth who have chosen this path as well. So, many of these assume their natural roles which seems to please most people. But there is an excellent opportunity to make everyone equal.

 

The Fourth Dimension

The planet which those already in the 4th dimension are destined for, is also similar to Earth, but there are some differences, namely in attitudes and technology. For instance, I am traveling around the city in a vehicle that is powered by solar energy. It is not a very stylish conveyance, but is comfortable and has large windows all around. As I listen to one of the radio stations, I am pleasantly surprised to hear upbeat music and a very positive sounding DJ.

The songs are pleasant, uplifting and positive in nature. They are happy sounding. Obviously these people have learned the importance of sound, particularly through happy and upbeat music. I have not heard a single sad song, or songs about a lost love.

Except for the hum of a few "car" engines, the city is quiet. As far as I can tell, the single source of power is from the Sun. The people appear to be happy overall. but serious as well. They are at this vibrational level by choice, yet I hear one person questioning his decision to come here, as he thinks of the old days. He is a young former stockbroker who is trying to find his way in his new home.

Perhaps he is a little lonely. I am sure he will soon quit relating to the materialistic ways of old and move into a more deliberate path of light.

The people have become very adept at recognizing a new vibration among them. Without exception, each person comments on my vibration as we meet. Most ask if I am new here. I observe healings by light while touring a "doctors" office. Part of the exam consists of looking into a hand held optical device which produces light patterns.

This in turn is correlated to the person's current level of development, with options given for future growth. Although unique to each, the evaluations seem to produce similar results for those of similar vibrations, at least for those I saw. A very caring doctor is also doing some individual light healing with a small light projecting device.

There is a sincere interest on the part of this doctor to assist everyone who has asked for his help. The doctor becomes aware of my presence and is somewhat surprised by my visit.

I am told there are other life forms of similar vibration who are also using this as a "staging or phase-in" planet. As with we humans, they will remain here for as long as they choose, perhaps an entire lifetime, or until they raise their vibrational level to the 5th dimension.

I have not seen any of the non-humans. I am told they will remain in the background until we new arrivals have adjusted moreso to our surroundings. As I understand it, this planet is a temporary home for those who choose to continue their growth beyond the 4th dimension.

There are no time limits here. I am told that there are an infinite number of degrees within each dimension, which allows for either slow, quick, or unlimited growth, depending on the individuals' needs.

This is in contrast to the former Earth paradigm, where many levels of vibration were co-existing together, which made it more difficult for those existing on the upper and lowers ends.

 

The Fifth Dimension and Beyond

There are people on Earth who are prepared to move into the 5th dimensional level or higher. My journeys included some of these planets. but I will not detail these at this time. I will say that as our vibratory rates rise to higher levels, that our physical bodies will begin to change in very subtle ways, becoming more and more rarefied. The type and quantity of food we require will also change.

These physiological changes begin as we move into the 4th dimension and become even more pronounced as we approach the 5th. It is while in the 5th dimension that the transmutation from a more dense physical body to a lighter body occurs. It is not an instant process, though. It is the light body that will return to live in peace and harmony within the new 5th dimensional Earth. I do not know how long the transmutation process will require, but it is not long in time- space terms, perhaps 50-150 years. As of this writing, the process has already begun. But it will begin in earnest when many of the 11-12 year olds' born in 1992 (and earlier) have children of their own.

Their children will inaugurate the inception of light-bodied humanity.

Each succeeding generation of offspring will be less dense and of a higher vibration.

 

Return Visits To Earth

I have returned to Earth on several occasions, and each visit has shown marked change from the first. One visit is soon after the Great Harvest of Souls. Everything is abandoned. It is like a ghost town as depicted in the old wild west movies. I walk into several homes and they are just as they were left. Some still have food on the table. Many refrigerators are filled with food. It is all spoiled, as there is no electrical power. The impression is that everyone was prepared to leave when the time came, and there was no fanfare or attempts to exert unnecessary efforts towards things that were not to be taken.

On another visit, the final cleansing process has begun. From close proximity to the Earth, I can see the destruction of all man-made structures. Most of the large and tall buildings have already been leveled by myriad prior Earth changes. Now I am able to see great slabs of concrete roadways and bridges being churned up by invisible forces. Intense heat and other types of energies are being applied, literally dissolving and breaking them down into a more natural state. These then are to become a part of the surrounding nature.

Our space friends are assisting with the cleansing efforts. As I move across the countryside, I see craft hovering over the different structures. They are applying energy beams that disintegrate the objects. I am told that nothing is lost. These disintegrated objects are converted to another form of energy that can either be utilized within the Earth's atmosphere, or that dissipate into space beyond Earth. Chemicals harmful to the Earth and radioactive materials are being neutralized and rendered harmless. It is easy to understand why it was necessary for us to leave while the cleansing takes place.

The light-bodied humans that return to Earth will have no need for the human-made physical structures. They will travel by thought and will not have any need for a physical transportation system.

Their energy field will be self-regulated, so there will be no need for shelter. The efforts of the Earth and our space friends' energies are directed in the most loving way to return the Earth to a place of natural beauty. It is to be a beauty that will support the vibration of a 5th dimension planet, a planet of clean, fresh air and clean waterways. It is to be a planet with brilliant snow white poles and verdant forests.

 

My final visit finds a Mother Earth that is of breathtaking beauty.

As I approach her, I can see a clear, well defined, uninterrupted auric field. Beneath her aura is an atmosphere of rich clean air.

Missing are the gases and pollutants of the 3rd dimensional human era. The countryside is now covered with lush green trees, beautiful bushes and ground covers, and multicolored wild flowers of every variety. The waters are flowing in a rhythmic fashion and are clean, sparkling and spring-like clear. The musical chords of ecstatic vibrations are everywhere reflecting the total planetary harmony.

There are echoes of love - seen - heard - felt - as the Earth, the Mother of all Her planetary life, and the totality of Her life systems are all at-one-ment. It is a physical beauty that was only dreamed of before the advent of the Great Harvest. Mother Earth is more loving, fresh looking, radiant and magnificent. She is ready to welcome home those humans who have been preparing themselves for this time. A great homecoming celebration is being prepared as Mother has much love she wishes to share.

 

"When" and Other Information

An obvious question is "When is the Great Harvest of Souls to occur?"

I do not know. This has not been shared with me, although I believe we will be told in advance. In one sense it has already begun, just as the Earth changes have begun. One reason we are not being told is because there is not a definite schedule. The entire process is directly related to the energies and collective consciousness of humankind and the Earth. The Great Harvest of Souls WILL occur, but the exact date is not known. There is a probable time, but Earth is a free-will zone and we have many choices to make along our spiritual paths that will have an affect. I was told it will most likely occur in my childrens' lifetime. In 1992 when I was told this, their ages were 24 and 23, respectively. I do know that the date will not be a surprise to us, as we will be kept informed.

Another concern will be that of pets, or animals in general. I do not recall seeing a single animal during my future travels. Perhaps I saw them and do not remember, since I was really focused on the human factors. However, this much I have been told: most animals will not remain on the 5th dimensional Earth, but they will be going with humankind. All present, Earth life-forms, in particular the animal kingdom, are compliments to and energy balancers for, humanity. This is one reason for their creation. The animals are at a different spiritual level than are humans, and will maintain that relative relationship as components of universal balance. Therefore, humankind will continue to share their life experiences with those of animals.

Others may be concerned about those who are bedridden, under medical care, in wheel chairs, blind, in prison or whatever condition and situation that may be imagined. The Great Harvest of Souls is for all souls, not just those who are physically and mentally "competent."

Between now and this miraculous event, humankind will be going through tremendous and rapid growth. Many major illnesses and ailments may be cured, as our own physiology reflects the Earths'

vibrational changes. We will begin to realize how we can control the physical with the mental, and how to manifest our thoughts quickly.

Many of us will cure our own ailments, but for those who do not, for whatever reasons, rest assured that all those on the Earth will be taken to their new home. Neither the Sun God nor our space friends who will be assisting, will judge us in any regard, whether it be spiritually, physically or mentally. They offer us only the pure love that they now experience.

Mysteries of the Goddess

by El Collie

(This is a slightly revised version of El's Kundalini article "Awakening the Snake Goddess," originally published in 1996 in the Wiccan and feminist spirituality newspaper Of a Like Mind.)

Three years into the staggering, wholly unexpected process that has forever changed both of our lives, my husband dreamed that there were two types of people in the world: "ordinary" folks, living out the consensual paradigm, and "snake people." We both instantly recognized the symbolic import of the dream, having met scores of others since we had become "snake people" ourselves.

The sacred snake is a central motif in every nature-revering and goddess religion in recorded history. For some of us, the Goddess is stirring awake and arising from her deep feminine abode from within our bodies and hearts and minds. Those of us who feel her unmistakable power are experiencing the ancient rites of death and rebirth at every level of our lives, down to our very cells. It is a calling that cannot be refused. We are becoming the new vehicles of the holy earth energies: we are the spiral-dancing, life-celebrating, spirit-intoxicated people of the snake.

It is happening globally; some say its magnitude is without precedent. Magic is afoot, transcendence is alive, and human consciousness is blossoming in accelerated evolution. But few know that the Goddess is behind it all, and that she is inching up everywhere secretly, often invisibly, in her most intimate and powerful form. When she first extends her transformative touch, it catches many unawares. Because her manifestations in the body can be intense, they are often mistaken for symptoms of physical illness. These can include the following:
* sensations of great heaviness in the body
* general physical weakness or partial paralysis
* muscle twitches, cramping or spasms
* tremors, shaking, convulsions
* prickly, itching, tingling, vibrating or crawling
sensations under the skin
* rhythmic, spasmodic or graceful involuntary
movements
* sensations of intense heat or cold
* headaches; pain in the back, neck; nerve pain in
legs and feet (left foot especially)
* surges of tremendous, high vibrational energy or
electricity in the spine or throughout the system

In truth, these symptoms herald a psychospiritual breakthrough known in Eastern traditions as a Kundalini awakening. This is a mysterious but natural process in which transformative energies course through the system, bringing about a dramatic metamorphosis of mind, body and soul. The Hindu tradition sees Kundalini as the divine Mother of all form. Coiled in sleep at the base of the spine, the serpent power of the Goddess Kundalini gives life. When she awakens and begins to rise, the forces within (Shakti) merge with the powers on high (Shiva), consummating the sacred marriage. From this union of earthly and heavenly energies comes spiritual rebirth and wholeness. This same phenomena has been recognized and described (in indigenous semantics) by nearly every culture in the world. Ethnologists sometimes refer to these universally found processes of purificatory and transformative illness as "shaman's sickness".

Until very recently, there has been no context in which these profound processes could be recognized, understood or supported in Western culture. Even now, the field of psychospiritual research is embryonic. For the most part, Westerners still lack a medical or religious model to encompass spontaneous (Goddess-catalyzed) transformational experience. The need to create an adequate framework becomes more crucial as increasing numbers of us are reporting these breakthrough experiences. Initially (and sometimes, for many years) most of the individuals undergoing involuntary Kundalini awakening have no idea what is actually transpiring in their bodies and psyches. As a result, they carry an unnecessary burden of anxiety, confusion and loneliness in the face of this tremendous multidimensional process. Many fear they are in the clutches of some horrendous disease, or under psychic attack, or even victim to demonic possession. Sometimes they feel on the brink of mental collapse. Too often, doctors concur with this appraisal. In worst case scenarios (and these happen with tragic frequency), the emotional catharsis and altered states of consciousness that mark Kundalini activation are misdiagnosed and mistreated as mental illness. Medical mismanagement can abort these potentially beneficial upheavals, generally to the detriment of the individual involved. Interrupting a Kundalini awakening rarely returns one to a "normal" state of physical and mental health. More often, such interference arrests the process in a dysfunctional limbo state, or weighs it down so that the person suffers needless difficulties for years.

Even those who realize they are in the midst of some kind of potent inner cleansing are in a catch-22 situation when it comes to consulting physicians (for the risen Kundalini can trigger injuries and latent diseases which may require medical attention). Three different doctors tried to push antidepressant and sedative medication on me during my siege of physical Kundalini symptoms. I knew these drugs have been found to be antagonistic to the process, yet I also realized that if I tried to tell my doctors about my activated Kundalini, they would be skeptical at best. More than likely, confiding the truth of my predicament would have branded me a wacko, and any subsequent physical complaints would not be taken seriously. Few people I know who tried to discuss Kundalini openly with their psychiatrist or M.D. found their physician receptive to this. There are doctors who are aware of the psychological and biological toll of spiritual emergence; some, like W. Brugh Joy and Richard Moss, have undergone these experiences themselves. But by and large, Western medicine draws a strict dividing line between physical concerns and matters of the spirit. Likewise, religious advisors are apt to throw anything involving bodily (or mental/emotional) symptoms back into the court of the medicos.

At the opposite end of the scale are the spiritual and metaphysical teachers who acknowledge and encourage transformative experiences -- as long as they occur exclusively within the context of their own practices. There is a widespread tendency to confuse the technologies with the territory, and to believe that Kundalini releases (or shamanic experiences) can only result from extensive meditation, yoga, vision quests, ritual drumming, deliberate manipulation of the chakras and so on. While some teachers are aware of "accidental" spiritual emergence, they may also be disdainful of this, as if any expression of the sacred outside their own tradition is somehow tainted or lacking in authenticity. Adding the threat of injury to insult for those of us experiencing these "accidents," many charge that "premature" (i.e., spontaneous) awakening poses great danger.

It is true that a Kundalini process can be a perilous journey, and not everyone makes it through this shattering
passage intact (those following ordained spiritual practices notwithstanding). As with everything else in life, there are no guarantees. Generally speaking, with the help of experienced advisors, the path can be smoother and shorter, but even so, these dramatic processes can (and often do) continue to unfold for many eventful years.

The Goddess is as merciful as she is fierce, and for some, spiritual awakening may arrive in gentle waves of personal insight and gradual revelation. But many of us are discovering that the road to enlightenment often veers through rugged terrain as well as billowing fields of bliss. Spiritual energies can storm the senses like a psychic hurricane, relentlessly smashing through every level of obstruction to inner growth. Once unfurled, there is no way to reverse the expansive, consciousness-raising intent of fiery Kundalini. In the more chaotic, early stages, this inexorable forward march can cause alarm, but above all else, this is a healing process. Those who have completed the journey all speak of remarkable serenity, renewal, heightened sensitivity and vastly increased personal creativity. Some emerge with extraordinary psychic gifts; others revel in the best physical health in their lives.

While the process bears distinctive features (such as surges of powerful energies felt in the body, and pronounced plunges into mystical states), there is no such thing as a standard Kundalini awakening. Each process is unique. Those who find themselves overtaken by this transformational force discover that for all her fury, the Snake Goddess has an unerring intelligence. Astute healers and teachers who offer assistance for the process are humbled by the wisdom it displays. Much of the awakening experience is a nonnegotiable summons to let go, to surrender to psychic death and its aftermath of radiant regeneration. What is most needed is an atmosphere of safety and support for the Goddess to open us in her own way, at her own pace.

Even when qualified helpers are unavailable, the simple knowledge that one is not alone on this strange pilgrimage provides immeasurable relief. Over and again, I have heard people express profound gratitude to learn that their bizarre symptoms and emotional turbulence were not signs of disintegration, but evidence of the Goddess' transcendent yet very earthy handiwork. The realization that this is a spiritual phenomenon can transmute terror to joy. Out of this understanding comes the courage, patience, hope and love to affirm our blessed place in the great scheme of things, and to brave the trials and mysteries of our inner pathways to illumination.

The New Age Movement and Service to The Plan

The New World Order as envisioned by the Elite is hardly a recent undertaking. Theirs is a philosophy rooted in ancient occult traditions. Success is near, and the infiltration of society by New Age occultism is the reason for this success. The New World Order has never been solely about world government, rather, from the beginning its proponents have been privy to secret doctrines and it is a spiritual plan more than anything.

If one failed to take into account the occult nature of the New World Order, they would be remiss. The UN and the New Age have been bed-fellows since the beginning. America's secret destiny is the product of Rosicrucian and Freemason forefathers. The New Atlantis as proposed in Francis Bacon's work is almost at hand. The Ancient Mysteries are being studied for illumination and enlightenment by the New World Order's elite. Not to mention the New Age gurus — dutifully recruiting on behalf of the Secret Brotherhood.

In 1980, Marylin Ferguson compiled and espoused a synthesis involving the theories of transformation and the secret plan of the Aquarian Age. In her studies of the scientific advancements of this age involving entropy and syntropy, holism, holographs, paradigm shifts, the uncertainty principle and evolution, she discovered that, "for the first time an American renaissance is taking place in all disciplines, breaking the boundaries between them, transforming them at their farthest reaches—where they all converge." (The Aquarian Conspiracy, p.12)

Speaking of the networks and web of influence, Ferguson proclaimed: "There are legions of conspirators... in corporations, universities, hospitals, on the faculties of public schools, in factories, in doctors' offices, in state and federal agencies, on city councils and the White House staff, in state organizations, in virtually all arenas of policy making in the country [U.S.]...[including] at the cabinet level of the United States Government." (ibid. p.24) However, other New Age proponents said that this is innacurate, in that she had understated the influence of the New Age worldwide, especially in the UN and the EEC.

It is no coincidence that America has become the center of New Age and New World Order conspiracies. The Theosophical and Rosicrucian traditions hold that every nation has a spiritual destiny guided by a hierarchy of beings using all ethical (or un-ethical) means of manifesting the "divine plan" through the will of the nation's leaders.

A proponent of the New Age and the Secret Brotherhood's plan for a New World Order is Robert Hieronimus. In his book America's Secret Destiny, he traced the spiritual vision of America's founding fathers and the plan's eventual fruition in what we call the New World Order and the New Age Movement (both of which are synonymous). He stresses that the founding fathers of America had the equivalent of "Masters" and were pupils in a sense, much like today's powerful Elite have Masters and Gurus, following the teachings of the Great Plan.

According to the Rosicrucians and Theosophists, supporting the divine plan are great beings refered to as masters of the physical and spiritual planes. The evolution of America owes much to the seed thoughts of four masters—Kuthumi, El Morya, Rogoczy, and Djwhal Khul. Some of the founders of America may have been consciously or unconsciously students of these teachers, just as some contemporary Americans are pupils of these masters. In fact, the motto of the heirarchy of world teachers is identical with America's destiny—the brotherhood of man and the Fatherhood of God. (p. 95)

Another writer, from the opposite camp, confirms the assertions of Hieronimus. Willy Peterson writes:

In order to reach their aims of world unity and thus engage the whole world in service to the Plan, "enlightened" Freemasons and New Agers have been pushing for collectivist motifs that promote monistic pantheism and unity. This is why the chief instigators to the globalist League of Nations and the United Nations have been Theosophists, trying to work out the plan. This is why the verbiage and aims at the U.N. is for world peace and brotherhood. It is a spiritual undertaking in a secular world. Lucis Trust has had three think-tanks located at the U.N. Plaza in New York for around fifty years. No wonder the former Assistant Secretary General to the U.N., Robert Muller, is a devoted disciple of Alice Bailey, whose book, A Treatise on White Magic, forms the basis for the Robert Muller schools. (The Leavening)

These people are called the torchbearers or lightbearers of the New World Order. A spiritual plan that has been traced to the time of Nimrod and the Tower of Babel, up through to the Illuminati and onwards. "A loosely-knit world conspiracy," David Allen Lewis writes, "a so called Network of Illuminists." "Whether the Illuminati has one special organization that is its orginal descendant... we can be very sure that its philosophical torchbearers are represented by literally hundreds of organizations and individuals in many diverse realms." (Dark Angels of Light)

A Blueprint For Destiny

Robert Heironomus says that "America's Great Seal may be seen as a blueprint for the elevation of consciousness. It says, in part, that we must transform ourselves before we can change the world, and that it is during the process of self-transformation that we can catch a glimpse of what part we are to play in national and global transformation."

The mandala of the New World Order and Illuminati control. "Annuit Coeptis—He has Blessed our Beginning", "Novus Ordo Seclorum—New Order of the Ages". The All-Seeing Eye of Horus, the resurrected Egyptian Sun God, biblically refered to as Lucifer, the angel of light.

In occult doctrine it is thought that "from the union of spirit and matter (the pyramid is made of stone, rock, and earth—and represents the unconscious. The capstone is made of an immaterial substance—light or spirit—and is conscious), a new being—a transformed being—is created. The seal's reverse depicts a separation state in the separation of the eye the triangle."

"The pyramid exemplifies the initiation stage,... it is the house of initiation, in which the candidate confronts the world of darkness and enters the world of spirit. By passing the tests of the elements, the candidate is initiated into the realm of higher consciousness." (Hieronimus ibid., p.92) After succesfully completing the initiation process, the candidate is reborn, and joins the single eye in the pyramid.

The New World Order, or rather the philosophy its deliverers hold to be true, is one and the same as the New Age ideal of man's divinity and self-transformation. In order to partake in this gnostic fufillment of "The Great Plan" one must awaken to the original sin of Lucifer, as proposed to Eve in the Garden of Eden, that "we can be as Gods." (Gen. 3:5) So it is not suprising to find that Christians, specifically, are cited as the main obstacle hindering the success of this New Age-New World Order.

The reason for this, is the New Age belief in many "saviors" and "enlightened teachers", masters and gurus—it's all good and fine when the goal is the false teaching of man's divinity. The New Agers see many ways to salvation; Christians proclaim that there is only one Way - Jesus Christ. "For the gate is small, and narrow that leads to life, and few are those who find it." (Matt. 7:14) The Bible states that this is in reality the "broad way that leads to destruction, and many are those who enter it." (Matt. 7:13) Therefore, the only religion not compatible with The New Age, and hence the coming New World Order, is the belief and strict adherence in the Word God – with traditional Christianity being looked upon as particularly pernicious.

In Dark Secrets of the New Age, Texe Marrs wrote:

The New Age is a universal open-arms religion that excludes from its ranks only those who believe in Jesus Christ and a Personal God. Buddhists, Shintoist, Satanists, Secular Humanists, witches, witch doctors and shamans — All who reject Christianity are invited to become trusted members of the New Age family. Worshippers of separate faiths and denominations are to be unified in a common purpose: THE GLORIFICATION OF MAN.

The Guardians of the Mysteries

Freemasonry, by its own accord, practices the ancient mysteries of Egypt, and has as a primary goal, the re-instatement of this mystery religion for the coming World Order.

“The magical mystery religion of Ancient Egypt exercised a great fascination over Renaissance man, which was incorporated into—the newly formed—Lodges at that time. The mysterious heiroglyphs were considered to be symbols of hidden knowledge. Symbols and gestures became a means of conveying secrets and "truths". The cosmos was seen as an organic unity. It was peopled by a hierarchy of spirits which exercised all kinds of influences and sympathies. The practice of magic became a holy quest.”

- Michael Rogge, New Age Spirituality: The roots of the New Age Movement Part I

Back in 1927, Freemason W.L. Wilmhurst saw the dawning of the Aquarian Age as the fufillment of the "Plan". In The Meaning of Masonry, p.4, he writes:

In this new Aquarian age, when many individuals and groups are working in various ways for the eventual restoration of the mysteries, an increasing number of aspirants are beginning to recognize that Freemasonry may well be the vehicle for this achievement

He would be well proud, I'm sure, of today's mainstream acceptance of those very same occult mysteries. Another passage on page 46-47, proves the teaching of Freemasonry is the same as New Age beliefs:

He begins his Masonic career as the natural man; he ends it by becoming through its discipline, a regenerated man... This the evolution of man into superman—was always the purpose of the ancient Mysteries, and the real purpose of modern Masonry is, not the social and charitable purposes to which so much attention is paid, but the expediting of the spiritual evolution of those who aspire to perfect their own nature and transform it into a more god-like quality.

Freemasonry, through its mysteries, will soon usher in a New World Religion for the New World Order. A modern day Tower of Babel and the ultimate unification of the world's religions. The New Age welcomes these goals and looks to the "light" of Masonry as its esoteric basis for occult initiation into the New World Order. Benjamin Creme writes:

“The New Religion will manifest, for instance,through organizations like Masonry. In Freemasonry is embedded the core or the secret heart of the occult mysteries, wrapped up on number, metaphor and symbol ...”

- The Reappearance of the Christ and the Masters of Wisdom, p.87

Freemason and co-founder of Lucifer Publishing Company (now called Lucis Trust), Foster Bailey, concurs, "Is it not possible from a contemplation of this side of Masonic teaching that it may provide all that is necessary for the formulation of a universal religion?"(The Spirit of Masonry, p.113) Foster Bailey states that Masonry "is the descendant of, or is founded upon, a divinely imparted religion..." This religion he explains, "...was the first United World Religion. Then came the era of separation of many religions and sectarianism. Today we are working again towards a World Universal Religion." (ibid p.31)

To biblical students these are shocking admissions and it adds fuel to the charge of a Masonic Antichrist in our midst. "It is these Mysteries which Christ will restore upon His reapearance," Alice Bailey reveals, "thus reviving the churches in a new form, and restoring the hidden Mystery." (The Reappearance of the Christ, p. 122) Bailey is giving these "revelations" by her channeled Master Djwhal Khul — a disembodied "Ascended Master". Her "Christ" is indeed the Antichrist in the strictest sense of the word. Antichrist means substitute for or in place of Christ. She goes on to say that "These ancient Mysteries were originally given to humanity by the Hierarchy [of which Djwhal Khul is a part of] and contain the entire clue to the evolutionary process, hidden in numbers, in ritual, in words and in symbology; these veil the secret of man's origin and destiny, picturing to him in rite and ritual, the long, long path which he must tread, back into the light." (ibid, p.121-22)

So what do we have here?

• The New Age tells its disciples that they are working for the Hierarchy.
• The teachings of the New Age are giving by the Hierarchy.
• The movement for the installement of the Antichrist is giving the go-ahead by the Hierarchy — Djwhal Khul's number one message for New Age disciples is "prepare men for the reappearance of the Christ. This is your first duty." (The Externalization of the Hierarchy, p.614)
• The Ancient Mysteries, being practiced by both Freemasonry and the New Age, were giving to humanity by the Hierarchy.
• The real purpose of Masonry — taught to man, from the Hierarchy — is the expediting of the spiritual evolution, to transform their nature into a god-like superman.
• The Serpent caused the Fall in the Garden of Eden by giving Eve this very same message.

“Man is a god in the making. And as the mystic myths of Egypt, on the potter's wheel, he is being molded. When his light shines out to lift and preserve all things, he receives the triple crown of godhood.”

- Manly P. Hall, The Lost Keys of Freemasonry, p. 92

“European mysticism was not dead at the time the United States of America was founded. The hand of the mysteries controlled in the establishment of the new government for the signature of the mysteries may still be seen on the Great Seal of the United states of America. Careful analysis of the seal discloses a mass of occult and masonic symbols chief among them, the so-called American Eagle. ... the American eagle upon the Great Seal is but a conventionalised phoenix ...”

“Not only were many of the founders of the United States government Masons, but they received aid from a secret and august body existing in Europe which helped them to establish this country for A PECULIAR AND PARTICULAR PURPOSE known only to the intiated few.”

- Manly P. Hall, The Secret Teachings of All Ages, pp. XC and XCI

It is a Chapter from a book called "The Impending Golden Age" by Sanctilean, Copyright 1947.

CHAPTER ELEVEN

PROPHECY CONCERNING THE GOLDEN AGE

THE ONLY authentic prophecy, is a statement by the Pre Visors (Divine Planners) of the Solar Lodge of Arisen Master Craftsmen (Ascended Masters), as to what is about to come to pass.

Authentic prophecy is divisible into five categories. These are:

(1) Events attending the close of our Enascium;

(2) Events attending the inauguration of the closely impending

Golden Age;

(8) Events occurring during the Golden Age;

(4) Events which have already occurred; and

(5) Events which will occur millions of years hence.

Current attempts to understand prophecy are made difficult by three causes.

These are:

(a) The failure to distinguish between these five categories of

authentic prophecy;

(b) The failure to distinguish between authentic and spurious

prophecy; and

(c) Distortions of authentic prophecy.

I. THE CLOSE OF OUR ENASCIUM

Prophecy concerning the close of our Enascium is of two varieties.

One of these relates to earthquakes and storms. These are discussed in

Chapter 12, 'The Last Days." The other relates to social violence and

chaos. These are discussed in Chapter 13, "Chaos and Violence."

II. THE INAUGURATION OF THE GOLDEN AGE

Prophecy concerning the inauguration of the closely impending Golden Age refers to two categories of events. One of these relates to astronomical phenomena, such as the turning of the Sun to the redness of blood, and the darkening of the moon The other relates to the emergence of the New Jeru Salem from supraphysical into physical manifestation.

These events are discussed in Chapter 14, "Outer Darkness";

Chapter 15, "The Beast and the Lake of Fire"; Chapter 16, "Tbe

Descent of the New Jeru Salem.

III. THE GOLDEN AGE

Prophecy concerning events during the closely impending Golden Age, relates to a time when the Earth shall be ruled in righteousness, as one nation.

These events are discussed in Chapter 17, "The New Earth": Chapter

18, "The Government of the Golden Age"; Chapter 19, "The Star Shift."

1V. EVENTS WHICH HAVE OCCURED

Among events foretold by authentic prophecy have already occurred, are the destruction of the City of the Sun, and the Battle of Armagheddon. The prehistoric Capital of the brilliant Ara Maian Empire of Hra Sah Ara. Or Helius,

(Heliopolis) after its abandonment by the Ara Maians, was occupied by an Atlian Sun Woship Cult, who called it the City of the Sun.

The ancient City of Or Helius was destroyed, Sah Ara (Sahara) Sea, where now stands the Sahara Desert, was dried up at the time of tbe sinking of the ancient City of Poseidonis. At the time of this cataclysm, the crust of the Earth split open to form the Mediterranian Sea, into which the Sah Ara Sea was drained through a subterranean fault. The prophecy with respect to tbe destruction of Or Helius, after it should be called the City of the Sun, and drying up of the Sah Ara Sea, was not a Prophecy of vengeance, but of the natural course of events attending the submergence of the last remnant of the Continent of Atlantis.

The Battle of Aram-Yaghetto, or Armagheddon, was fought between a Murian Moon Worship Cult and this Atlian, Sun Worship Cult, who lived in the City of the Sun.

The cause of this battle was the practice by the Sun Worship Cult, of offering their Murian slaves as human sacrifices on the tops of their truncated sacrificial Pyramids.

The attack of the Murians upon the City of the Sun so enraged the Atlians, that they undertook to annihilate the Murians throughout the Earth with atomic bombs.

In this campaign of destruction, the Atlians were so nearly

successful, that it was necessary for the Encratic Master Craftsmen

(Ascended Masters) to intervene. This unusual intervention was not to succor the Murians. It was to assure progenitors of bodies for laggard souls, who could not live in a body having a more highly developed nervous organism.

All divine intervention has a cosmic purpose.

Today, while the people of the United States of America are unaware of their cosmic importance, the Arisen Master Craftsmen throw unusual protection around our great nation, during these Last Days

The cosmic importance of the United States of America lies in the

fact that out of her is to come a part of the seed of the New Age Race,

which will constitute the advanced civilization of the Earth following the closely impending Golden Age. This civilization will rise to heights never bcfore known on Earth.

This seed does not lie in any race, nation, creed, or ideology of Europe, Asia or Africa.

The Encratic Master Craftsmen accordingly sank the Island City of Poseidonis, with its atom bomb laboratories, warehouses and technicians, by accelerating natural causes, which for centuries had been lowering the Continent of Atlantis into the sea.

Thus ended the most violent war in the history of the Earth, but not as a victory for the possessors of the atom bomb technic.

The ancient iniquity of animal and human sacrifice has despoiled mankind through the ages.

It found its culmination in the invention of the doctrine of the vicarious atonement, by them who sought to destroy the Master Jesus.

They hated the Ara Maian precepts of sobriety, purity, chastity and

nonresistance of evil, enunciated by him.

Jesus came into the physical world to become a Celest. During his Celestship, he reaffirmed publicly the ancient Hra Maiac teachings, concerning the Way of Salvation. This Way of Salvation leads to the Raising into the Kingdom of Heaven.

He did not die for man's sins, or the sins of the world. He demonstrated the

Way of purity, chastity, sobricty, altruism, and nonresistance to evil, even unto

death. He did not die as a sacrificial offering to appease any angry god. In his

exemplification of the Way of Salvation, be proclaimed to all the world,

"What I do, you shall do also."

The extolling of the shedding of blood, and of animal, human and

suprahuman sacrifice, through the ages, has led mankind continuously into

war, disease, poverty, pestilence and death.

Out of the Fassion Play of Oberaminergau has come the debacle of Europe.

The symbol of the Pro Scenium, the fifth and highest Order of the Caducean

Master Craftsmen, is the AII-sceing Eye.

The Pro Scenia arc tbe Silent Watchers over, and Historians of, the

progress of all unfolding life in the solar systcm. They are the Recording

Angels.

The descending capstone with the All-seeing Eye, above the truncated

pyramid of prehistoric barbarity, is prophetic of the impending emergence

into physical manifestation of the New Jeru Salem.

This scene is shown in the Seal of the United States of America on One

Dollar bills.

The emergence of the New jeru Salem into physical manifestation will

mark the abolishment by the Pro Scenium, of the extolling of the shedding

of blood, and of the death rite, as a religious ceremony.

V.EVENTS OF THE FAR DISTANT FUTURE

Periodically, at intervals of one hundred and eighty-two millions years, the

whole solar system is lifted out of physical manifestation. The spontaneous

decomposition of the heaviest chemical elements, with their attendant

radioactivity, is the bcginning of the spiritualization of substance.

Prophecy concerning the far distant time, when the "Earth and its

heavens shall be rolled up as in a scroll of fire," refers to this continuing

disintegration of substance.

SPURIOUS PROPHECY

All prophecy of vengeance, revenge and reprisal is spurious, being

humanly created. It has no validity in cosmic actuality.

DISTORTIONS OF AUTHENTIC PROPHECY

Distortions of authentic prophecy in the twenty-six sacred writings of

man, is of four varieties. These are:

(1) Mistakes by manuscript copyists

(2) Forgeries,

(a) to discredit competitive religions,

(b) to support spurious claims of exclusive divine approval and

authority, and

(c) to justify grossness of living;

(3) Ignorant attempts to improve or explain authentic prophecy;

and

(4) Dishonest propaganda, for selfish racial, national,

religious, political

and ideological purposes.

The Principle of American Democracy, to which this book is dedicated,

is the cosmic principle of peace, altruism, sobriety, sincerity, and individual

freedom, socially, economically, politically and religiously.

This Principle, even though limited by human frailty, has made the United

States of America great among the nations of Earth.

This is because, in conformity with cosmic actuality, the United States of

America is not parasitical.

The nations of Europe are now largely in process of dismemberment by the

Caducean Master Craftsmen, because they will not abandon their ancient evil

practices of holding in subjugation the peoples of other lands as slaves.

Today, from the Caldron of Unrest throughout the Earth, is being distilled

the good from within every old concept and ideal, in preparation for the

impending Golden Age.

From within this Caldron, many unworthy hands are held out to America.

They are the hands of decadent, insincere and dishonest national, racial,

religious and ideological groups. Being unwilling to bring their

living into conformity with cosmic actuality, the Will of God, tbey

seek to postpone their destruction by every artifice.

In the propaganda by these dishonest groups, with which the people of the United States of America are assailed continuously, there

is much malicious distortion of authentic prophecy, in attempts to

achieve alien purposes.

The people of the United States of America have strayed far from the ancient teaching of their Pre Ceptors concerning purity, chastity and sobriety.

Notwithstanding this, they are under the protection of the Pro

Scenium.

This is not because of their personal merit. It is because of their cosmic significance, as the seed of the Hra Maiac contingent of the New Age Race.

Unknown to themselves, the people of the United States of America are now in process of segregation into two groups. One of these groups will go on victoriously into the closely impending Golden Age.

The other group, having fallen short of its divine destiny, will pass into another prolonged period of preparation for the Raising.

Some people can see the human aura. Some of us never have and some have on occasion but do not usually. First off it is not a really big deal if you do or don't see the aura . It really does not seem to have any bearing on a persons actual spiritual state in any case. Many people never see auras, feel energy, hear mystical information or have visions and many of these people can be just as good or better as healing practitioners and have as deep or deeper spiritual realization than people who do get the bells and whistles . Don't let this minor matter discourage you and if you do get the effects don't get all impressed with yourself either.

Most people when they do see an aura do not see much more than a misty outline and often dismiss that as optical illusion or heat waves. This is subtle energy so it is much more often quite light and ephemeral as the energy field is also pulsing and shifting. constantly. The aura is not the optical reaction you see when you gaze at an object of one colour for a long time then look away. It is not the spots you get in front of your eyes when you look at a bright light. Nor is it the optical flashes and such you might get from eye strain or migraine headaches. There are a multitude of theories and methods for seeing the aura most of them work some are easier than others to use.

Crystals can be programmed to assist you with seeing auras and receiving information Though the first time I tried to program a crystal for this function I actually made it easier for other people to see my aura instead.

Most people try too hard. Relax and kind of unfocus your eyes and allow yourself to observe, if you don't see anything different than usual that's fine. When out doors you might look along the tree line quite often the life force or aura of the trees and other plants is often visible as a kind of mist or faint glowing outline. Most exercises to see auras call for an area with indirect light kind of like that of a cloudy overcast day or early twilight. You also need a neutral or white plain background so it won't interfere with your observations. When you become familiar with seeing auras this won't be essential but at first it helps greatly.

      You have probably already done one of the fastest ways to get a glimpse of your own aura which is to face a neutral coloured wall in indirect light and to hold your index finger together at eye level move your fingers until you get the optical illusion of having a floating third finger in the centre. The little flare of colour you may see at your finger tips is your aura.

You may be able to see your aura especially around your feet when you are in the bathtub if the light is soft, its easier with a white tub. Practice seeing someone else's aura by having them sit near a solid light coloured wall and just look without focusing especially around the neck and shoulders and head bright coloured clothing will make this more difficult. Near sighted people have the advantage because if they remove glasses or contacts they might achieve the unfocused vision naturally.

These are all open eye methods and while many people use closed eye meditations it is best to get an idea of what you sense with your eyes open .With your eyes closed it may be more of a challenge to separate your own information and imagination from the received input.

Many people have commented that when seeing auras they only see the "heat waves" or misty whitish outlines and are disappointed with themselves because they are not seeing lots of colour etc. I used to feel that way too I would occasionally see colours and or get symbolic imagery but most of the time with most people all I could see was the mist and waves. Many people find it easier to feel the energy of the aura In the first place there are permission issues many people are shielded by choice. Generally most of us will be able to see these things only with permission or compelling reason.

      My personal experience is that and this is not true for everyone. Most of the time with most of the people what is there to see is the waves and misty outlines. with practice and by raising your frequency you might/will be able to see more from casual observation. Unless you have a particular need and or the specific permission of the subject and 'Your choice of Spiritual identifier here' or the person you are observing is feeling some relatively strong emotion or focusing intensely or in effective meditation etc.

Most auras tend to be fairly quiet you will see colours among the passionate, the impassioned, the angry, the seriously ill, the dedicated intellectual, the saint or sage, the happy pregnant woman, young children at play, etc. When people are in seriously impaired health with the potential to die they may see much more of the auric field of others. In that case often when their health improves or they decide to stay on Earth this heightened sensitivity may disappear. You also need yourself to be in a calm and detached but positive accepting mild anticipatory state not wrapped up in emotions or preconceptions that will effect, impede, or superimpose you own energies on the observed. People who see all layers of the aura with ease right off have probably spent lifetimes learning to do so and more importantly have learned to perceive without the blocks and restraints most of us have imposed on ourselves that restrict our awareness of our deeper vision and perceptions. We can release those blocks should we have the will and cause to do so.

Auras are not like neon lights very often these are mostly subtle effects and the emotional and mental layers may change constantly so we are talking about fleeting shifting subtle patterns of light and colour which are most often intermingled with other auric and energetic patterns and which are rarely isolated against a neutral background in soft light which is the best condition for observation. the Aura is not to be confused with the optical effect of staring into light bulbs etc. Soft light or twilight conditions are often best for aura observation. The restraint and repression that has been prevalent in today's society also has caused a holding in and dampening of the auras light.

The degree of visibility and activity of the observable aura does vary to a degree according to the cultural and social traditions of the observed person. Many Chi gong Masters and Buddhist Adepts for example may keep their aura pulled in tight to the physical body a lot of the time. Failing to see their aura does not mean that they or you are not skilled or spiritual.

      You also need to become familiar with your own energy body. The more you know about your own energy the easier it will become to understand others energy. You need to be neutral there is a not striving but allowing state of being that assists and enhances many of the psy sensitivities. There are also pitfalls in rigidly adhering to some formula of interpretation of the human aura. Your intuition untainted by your own prejudices is vital here . Some of the older interpretive guides are for example inclined to ignore or discount positive qualities of red. Some past interpreters have given a more positive assessment of the quality of unquestioned obedience to authority then we are inclined to accept today.

What you may be interpreting. What you may perceive as you observe the aura and the information and colours in the aura. First of all the layers are not really layers like an onion has but areas of different frequency or wave pattern that interpenetrate each other. There are many more than the seven to twelve most people describe though for practical purposes that is enough to provide a general understanding of aura functions.

Generally what most people see when they observe an aura is some of the information from the first or etheric body visible next to the skin. This is mostly a bluish or greyish or whitish field. Weak spots and trauma may show as thinning or swelling in the aura or breaks leaks spurts of energy around the etheric outline of the body. They may also see information from the second or emotional body which is often seen as clouds or patterns of multi coloured light. traumas and injuries in this layer may show up as muddy or loud colours grey fogs black spots and sometimes shapes and symbols are seen in this energy field. Information and damage can be compressed and layered. Even when you do see or sense the aura you will not get all the information.

Barbara Brennon in her book 'Hands Of Light' describes the different energy bodies as alternating between structured form like the blue grid some see on the etheric (with physical related information) and the coloured clouds of the emotional body. The following part was taken down by me as though it were dictated to me (and could probably be considered as channelled.)

      Your feelings thoughts and actions, your mission, pathway and dreams are all imprinted upon your aura from moment to moment and through the eternity. While a reader may see your own pattern, the perceiver and reader may also have their own code. The way they receive and interpret what they see may not be what is there, but may be a code of information for them filtered through their auric perception.

All your feelings, thought, acts and the actions taken upon you do impact upon your aura. Not everything is preordained, the passions and fears and restrictions and freedoms your past and possible futures are all held with in these currents. Generally many born at the same time may have the same basic tone on a soul level which is where expressions such as indigo children arise, but we are each separate beings so one of indigo soul tone for time may be pink or yellow or blue in personal colour brought into the incarnation yet have different colour visibly predominating from the experiences and action reaction of the life and life plan that they are moving through as well as showing the paths and flares of the colours of the momentary influences, both internal and external in the physical environment and from the spiritual creative plane being flow form and isness. Which is what is simply called God by many. and from all the emanations thereof.

How may I simplify? What you are, what you feel, what is, so one coming in to look upon your being may see "you are blue or yellow and green" and be seeing:

A. How you are feeling reacting at that moment.

B. How you have formed patterns of feeling and reacting from the moments before.

C. What the plan or pattern intention was that you have brought into the life with you.

D. Or how it harmonized or will unfold not unfold as 'planned'.

E. Your past and or future life possibilities.

F. What abilities you have brought into this life.

G. Your personal colours of personality, of nature, of innate wisdom.

H. Your soul tones or essence these may be both permanent and transient as to life and eternity.

I. Your community or collective colours which indicate the commune of spirit and time and which all of similar mission and 'cosmic heart' might share.

J. How God manifests through you.

      These are but a few of the kind of thing that may be seen by the observer of your aura, and to mention that also manifestly visible may be elements of the influences and connections with the many other entities with whom you interact and flow with. The observer may see information and experience solely intended for that perceiver with you being only a messenger of it for them.

Each plane and each separate but intertwined energy body has its own colours. Perception will also vary from where the observer 'stands' and whether they see more than one area of influence and information at once someone who sees the rose of your God Lovingness and bliss of the fifth energy body only through the yellow filter of your or their adherences to the intellectual rational approach may perceive that as orange and say 'oh what a passionate physical tribal type that is' and have only seen the drop of water in the ocean of your being which is perfect in its being and becoming and Isness and beloved, as are we all.

Embrace with joy your unfolding and the beauty of your aura which is manifest. You are, that is enough. Do not be consumed or concerned with what others may say of their perceptions of you and your entire entity through your Aura form but seek your own knowing and it will come to you. (sela) (end of channely stuff).

          Remember that these are subtle colours impressions not a light show. The energy field surrounding the physical body can be seen by some as radiating and filled with light. I checked every book pamphlet and article and old lecture note I could find for what colours mean in the aura and just am going to put in almost everything any one said, obviously there are apparent conflicts. This information is also useful in choosing colour and crystals to use in healing and other work.

  Healers often have green, blue, or violet in the aura, happily pregnant women run to pastels, lovers often have a glow of rose throughout the aura, intellectual activities can show up as yellow tones clear pure colours are indicative of stronger harmony than muddy colours.           Spiritual light and colour is used for healing the aura and the physical body for deepening meditation and to promote specific effects in the energy field. As a tool for healing, colour can be gazed at, beamed as healing light, meditated on, bathed in, worn, used in art and in ritual such as candle magic and mandala work and painting.

There are many systems of colour healing and mandala work that can be used for healing, spiritual development, manifestation of material and non material goals these can involve the relationships of the shapes and colours used as well as the intention for which the Mandala is created. not all Mandalas are circular in form, but can be any shape of image which is focused on in meditation or prayer and manifestation.

There are many systems of colour healing using the colour associated with the chakra that rules a particular area of concern to strengthen the influence or the complimentary colour to reduce an overcharge of energy is probably the most common method. Colour is often an important guide when choosing crystals for various purposes some systems are based mainly on the colour of the crystals.

An entity which encourages us to do harm to ourselves or anyone else is demonic, but threats against us do not necessarily indicate a malevolent spirit. Shamanic allies often resort to dire threats to scare their charges into cooperating with them. Awakening one night with an attack of neuritis, Arnold Mindell tells how, in the midst of excruciating pain, he encountered a spirit ally -- he saw "an old American Indian" standing behind him. The Indian put his hands on Mindell's back where the pain was and announced, "You've got to change!" Mindell goes on:

I asked him in desperation how I could do that.

He replied, "You're now in your mid-forties, you've got to change, I no longer want you to identify yourself as a human being."

I became furious. "But I'm just a normal human being with a family and large practice, get out of here."

"No, you now have to identify yourself as a spirit," he demanded.

"Are you out of your mind? I'm not a spirit. I'm just an ordinary guy who pays taxes," I insisted.

"All right, if you continue talking to me like that, I'll kill you!" he told me.

That shook me up and had me convinced, so I agreed to take a look at his world, to try and identify more with him, this old Indian. I saw that I had been complying with other people's ideas of what and who I was and what I should be doing, so I decided to give up my personal history and be more of an individual... (from Working with the Dreaming Body)

After this encounter, Mindell had a dream in which he met his "double," an entity "as big as a tree" who told him that he should identify with his real age, a "hundred-thousand-year-old personality." Thereafter, his neuritis gradually improved and his "double" enabled him to have clairvoyant insight into his clients. Says Mindell, "I still make lots of stupid mistakes like everybody else, but at other times I can be very aware. Sometimes I have this feeling of being the old personality, independent of culture, convention and time... Now he's no longer just a vision, he has become part of my total body experience."

A typical example of threats made by shamanic allies is the case of a forty year old Siberian man who became very ill and had a vision of a beautiful woman. This is what she told him: "I am the Ayami of your ancestors, the shamans. I taught them shamanizing. Now I am going to teach you. The old shamans have died off and there is no one to heal people. You are to become a shaman." When the man tried to resist this entity, she said, "If you will not obey me, so much the worse for you. I shall kill you." (from Holger Kalweit, Dreamtime & Inner Space: The World of the Shaman)

On a conscious level, becoming a shaman may be the farthest thing from our minds, but if it is our soul's mission, we can't refuse the calling without consequence. Often, "the shaman's path is a forced one; people are driven to it through illness, hereditary predisposition, dreams, magic, and bodily dismemberment," says Arnold Mindell. "All sorts of awesome activities are part of the shaman's path." His life is filled with "seeing spirits, hearing secret languages, and experiencing indescribable events..." (from The Shaman's Body) Later in his book, Mindell explains the rarely literal "dismemberment" experience of the shaman: "Chronic illness, feelings of being torn asunder by opposing forces, and near-death experiences frequently have the goal of 'cleansing' you from your own self... During such difficult times, you are forced to undo yourself, to go to pieces, to free yourself from the tendency to think of yourself at any given time as one type of person with one type of task." Stories abound of shaman-inductees who suffered years of woe from sickness, poverty, losses of all sorts, until they found their calling and devoted their lives to serving as a mediator between the earthly and ethereal planes. They do this by heeding the messages of their dreams, visions and inner guidance as well as being very attentive to everything going on externally. They usually become adept at reading the symbolic meaning of things, knowing that symbols, sensations and emotions are the prime language of the Spirit. It is the nature of the shaman, according to Holger Kalweit, "to perceive the universe in himself and others and, by going along with it, to influence and change it. His approach is based on empathy and unity with actual life-forces..." (from Dreamtime & Inner Space)

Demons may use astral sex to energize themselves. From my extensive reading and personal experiences, this seems true. Yet in addition to being guides and helpers, shamanic allies may also take the form of spirit-lovers who interact sexually with the shaman. Some allies "marry" shamans and are thereafter their spirit husband or wife, even if the shaman already has a human mate. Holger Kalweit devotes a chapter to this ("Sacred Weddings, Spirit Marriages, and Dream Sexuality") in his book, Dreamtime & Inner Space.

Kalweit writes: "The celestial partners involved in such relationships are often beguilingly beautiful, even though they may have much in common with earthly creatures. For that reason, sexual contact with a being from another dimension can be more refreshing and intense than might be the case with an earthly partner." Rejecting the amorous advances of an ally-spirit (or turning down their proposals of marriage) can produce the same kinds of misfortune that can plague someone who refuses to become a shaman. As a rule, says Kalweit, pushing away the spirit-lover "results in illness, bad luck and general misery."

Kalweit disagrees with those who dismiss entities as fantasy experiences. In light of "the latest findings in the field of consciousness research, it is no longer possible to argue that the configurations of the Beyond are merely unconscious projections, archetypes, or symbols without any real and practical consequences," says Kalweit. "The spirit wife is not the daydream of a romantic neurotic. She instructs the shaman, makes him into a person that fulfills an important role within his culture and allows him to display a great number of inexplicable parapsychic phenomena." In the words of Lewis Carroll's "Alice" (in Wonderland): "Curiouser and curiouser!" No matter how much we learn, there is always more mystery awaiting us. And as Arnold Mindell has stated, "It's an inflation to think that you can manage the spirit. At best, you can learn to follow it." This is from his book, The Shaman's Body, an excellent guide for anyone seeking to understand the shamanic path from a Western perspective. From the same book, he says: "You cannot learn the skills you need through effort alone, and each situation you meet within yourself seems more impossible than the last. That is why the perennial philosophies have recommended that the best choice for the seeker of wisdom is humility. Like the holy mountain in Japan, Mount Fujiyama, which is flat and humble at the top rather than peaked and proud, the student is to rise above everyday life while being open to messages from above. At any height or degree of accomplishment, you are always a beginner."

Preface

Some of you will read this with no understanding of what I am speaking of. Others will assume I am talking of certain groups and may be on target or way off. With so many opposing opinions and viewpoints on the theories mentioned, I will clarify some of the terms I will use so there is a clearer understanding so I don’t offend certain subgroups. I will be using the terms “reptilian, Drac, Rep, and Snakes” to describe negative reptilian and inter-dimensional entities. Now I am not speaking of the reptilians who are spoken of by the inner earth groups or the ones who mean us no harm I am speaking of the darker entities that have found it necessary to attack and host humans to thwart their path to spirituality and have their own agenda to rule this world.

The other point I want to make is in reference to my statements on Christianity. I am a Christian but so as not to offend those who hold prejudices against so called “Christians”, I want you to know that they are not all the same judgmental “down your throat” types that have alienated so many. I am hoping that many realize that not all Christians are the same…just as everything else, there are good ones and bad ones…and make their judgments from that. This paper is not about religion or UFO theories…it is about spiritual warfare and what is happening in our daily life which is ever changing. I am hoping that this helps you know that you are not alone should you find yourself in such a work situation…and that we are fighting a domestic battle of free will, love of humanity, God and the truth.~~~Cassie

In today’s corporate world we are seeing more and more changes in structure such as growing trends to eliminate the human element and streamline the organization to a money generating system with no thought toemployee welfare. Part of this is due to poor economy and necessity, but there is a darker force lurking in the shadows that many are not seeing.

Businesses are being taken over by a different breed of workers. They infiltrate corporations at all levels and once established in a position, they contaminate the others around them. These beings or entities slip into human hybrid bodies that serve as hosts for the dwelling entity. The ones who have the most effect are the higher order Dracs who are usually found at the top of the corporate ladder or in positions where they have the most power. It must be remembered that these entities are not new to the planet by any means. They have been with us since the dawn of mankind, maybe before. They have been present at every major event in history, every social change, every war and every great achievement mankind had made. Understanding these beings and the dynamics involved empowers us to make better choices when working in situations such as these.

Inner workings of the Drac/Boss mind or why they do the things they do

In looking at the point of reference that a Drac/Boss operates on a daily basis, you must remember the main driving forces at work here: inner shame, the need for power and control, and the need to spread grief and destruction. If you look at the upbringing of most of these beings they are traumatized at a very early age, which produces the core of shame that becomes a driving force for them later in life. The trauma mixed with their altered DNA from birth creates a perfect abode for the entity to reside.

These people become vehicles for the entities to spread their hate and discontent.

First of all, the inner discomfort the entity goes through adjusting to the human body explains why many times these people are maladjusted. They often exhibit gender confusion by living a bisexual or gay lifestyle, but in most cases this choice is due to the genetics of the human body. It can’t be helped and really shouldn’t be judged. The alienation/disorientation the entities feel in a “foreign” human body can result in alcoholism and drug abuse as well as out of control anger tirades and mood swings. As this issue is a dual one, you must look at both the human host adjusting to the entity as well as the entity adjusting to the human body…to see the result of a working host/drac union.

Secondly, the inner core of shame that is established early on drives them to climb the corporate ladder in order to have more power with larger groups of people. The drive itself is not a negative thing, but mixed with the inner core of shame of the host and the maladaptive perceptions of the entity, this can be disastrous for a corporation and it productiveness.

The drac/host boss has an intense drive to control and change their environment so that it has their stamp of ownership attached to every tiny detail in the workings. They have a need to establish dominance with each individual in their hierarchal system. This means every departmental structure, every employee, every piece of work or template, even the letterhead design will have the drac/boss’s stamp of ownership and personal signature to it. This unnecessary expenditure of energy, time, money and change takes away from the overall productivity and wellbeing of the unit itself.

The third component to what drives the drac/boss is the need to spread grief to others and their innate self-destructiveness which damages companies known for running as “well-oiled machines” and brings them down in fragments much as the shattered mirror they see themselves in.

The workers under a drac/boss cannot spontaneously show joy or contentment unless it is directly related to an act by the drac/boss. Happiness outside the control of the drac/boss threatens the entity and triggers jealousy, as they are not the center of things at that moment. You must remember they must be the shining star at all times as they are so easily threatened by various things such as external or spontaneous happiness.

These Draconian Reptilian bosses have both strengths and weaknesses.

Strengths:

• Aggression and drive- relentless pursuit of goals.
• Lack of human moral boundaries or respect of others, which frees them to do more or go the extra step.
• Expansive creative thinking abilities, although limited by their vision.

Weaknesses:

• Lack of the ability to empathize with others, judging others by what they would do in a given situation
• Poor judgment based on own wants, needs and desires at the moment.
• Assuming all have an agenda for their own personal needs.
• Lack of understanding of the human emotions of love or the concept of giving without personal gain.

Roles in the Organization

Just as in dysfunctional families, certain roles are identified; it is the same for dysfunctional and reptilian run organizations. The reptilian run organization is pyramidic in structure with a figurehead at the top and tiers of supervisors beneath. The function is supposed to allow the organization to work more efficiently and to ensure that information is passed down to all parts and people in the structure. What happens though is when you have a Host at the top or one in the second or third tier that negative destructive energy trickles down as well and contaminates all that is beneath the control of the Drac.

Due to the ensuing dysfunction that follows a Drac’s wake, certain roles are established that exhibit elements of the drac/boss’s core of shame. The drac/boss is not aware that these roles actually expose his/her innermost soul damage or even exhibits his/her agenda. These roles give us some insight into the dark cavernous subconscious core of the rep/boss.

The Head or Queen Bee

This person may not always be the CEO of a company. He/she maybe a ladder-climbing reptilian or drac hosted human on his/her way to the top.

This person/being is the Queen Bee…the one controlling the puppet strings of others under her. She/he may also be considered the “Golden Child who can do no wrong” in an organization for a short time while she/he transitions to the top.

The Henchmen

The head lizard usually has a close-knit inner circle of confidents that they stay in close communication with at all times. They carry out the orders, wishes and desires of the drac/boss. They are very protective of the drac/boss much as soldier ants are of the Queen ant. These henchmen are also hosting lower order entities, which help act out the agenda of the drac/boss. These creatures enjoy their power, which is their reward for being Henchmen.

The Spies

These are all over the pyramidic structure of the organization. They befriend the common workers and gain their trust, then report back any information they get on other people to either the Henchmen or the Drac/Boss. They report on the goings on of other departments, others personal lives and anything they feel is valuable information on others. These “spies” will eavesdrop on phone calls, private conversations, read mail or email and examine workers desks after hours and the paperwork. Spies are often called “pot stirrers” as they thrive off of the chaos, drama, pain and misery of others just as the Henchmen and the Head Drac/Boss. They will create a drama to start the chain reaction of the assigned roles to keep the chaos rolling. They are “fan flamers”, agitators and are integral to the whole reptilian organization.

The Golden Child

There is always one of these in the organization. This role is usually especially chosen by the Drac/Boss as the “anointed one” who doesn’t have to follow the same rules as the others. This person usually has a sexual relationship with the Drac/Boss or knows some information on the Drac/Boss that if exposed would sabotage his/her agenda. The Golden Child is usually allowed to have quite a lot of power in the organization, with very few credentials or merits. This person rarely has a degree or any expertise in the field of the job they are performing. They are often placed in positions they are not qualified for just to please the Drac/boss. In meetings, the Golden Child is often held up as an example of what the others should aspire to be. This is very demoralizing to the workers who come in and stay out of office politics and do their job seriously. The Golden Child is often resented and is not respected but this too pleases the Drac/Boss as it is perceived as jealousy of the workers over the Boss’s attentions. This puts the Drac/Boss back in center stage and all the conflict and chaos that ensues is under the control of the boss.

The Threats

These are people who are perceived by the Drac/Boss for various reasons as being threats to their own existence. This is a serious life-endangering situation to the Drac’s belief system. They feel threatened with exposure or being upstaged. The Drac/Boss systematically weeds out those they perceive as Threats by scapegoating them and draining their energies until they quit or are fired. Here are some examples of people who would be cited as “Threats” by the Drac/Boss:

• Those who see and recognize the entity within them. The entity has a need to protect and preserve its cover to not risk exposure.
• Those who recognize the shame core within.
• Those who are not of their kind. These beings recognize others who are like them and cleave to their own. I am speaking of the soul makeup.
• Those who seem to possess the skills to excel and shine independently unless the Drac/Boss is able to take responsibility for their successes in some way. This is a terrible situation to have to be in, being hated for doing a good job. In situations such as this, the workers if they are “players” will set things up so that the drac/boss can take the credit.
• Interestingly enough….they are threatened by people who are closely connected to God or Christ. Now, I don’t mean people who merely go to church each time the doors are open. Many churchgoers are not necessarily connected to God. The truly spiritual person emits a soul light or aura that actually makes the entity ill although they do not understand why. So just as their energies make most humans ill, the energy of a spiritual person will make the rep/drac ill. Even the sight of a Bible or a religious photo or the mention of Jesus or prayer causes a negative reaction. On a bigger scale this is demonstrated by the increasing lack of prayer in the workplace and in schools.

The Scapegoat

The Scapegoat often starts out as one of the “Threats” to the drac/boss and if the symbiotic relationship with a Threat is rewarding enough or energy producing enough to the Drac/boss, he/she will promote the Threat to the Scapegoat position. The Drac/Boss must have a Scapegoat at all times to target and focus his/her frustrations on. This target is very important because the drac/boss can then externalize their own feelings of self-loathing (inner shame) and at the same time intensifies the bond with the Henchmen by having a common enemy. They can systematically setup the Scapegoat for failure, then verbally abuse and humiliate him/her. This is almost always done in front of others. Also, the Drac/Boss sets up a hostile environment so that it is an unspoken rule that the Scapegoat can be talked about, made the butt of jokes and false rumors and lies.

This Serves three purposes:

1. It intensifies the hurt and discomfort of the Scapegoat

2. It lets others see what can happen to them if they don’t conform to the precise demands of the Drac/Boss.

3. Finally, it gives the Drac/boss and Henchmen a sadistic high-like euphoric drug by which the energy of the Scapegoat is siphoned away and absorbed by the lizards.

It is not uncommon for the Scapegoat to end up with physical ailments or major depression if they choose to stay in this environment. As this symbiotic relationship is based on power and the downward spiral of power-based relationships, the Scapegoats usually come and go as they are used up by the organization like tampons: discarded and replaced with a new Scapegoat or “Fresh Blood”.

The Dance of Deception

When the drac/boss has his/her eyes set on an underling as a source of “new blood”, a symbiotic interaction occurs between the two, which is not so obvious to the average onlooker. The boss likes to set the stage so that everyone operates under pressure or in a state of fear of loss. This is due to the boss’s beliefs that production is increased in this type of work environment but it also serves as an excuse to create great emotional pain in the workforce and set up individual symbiotic work relationships. There might be a real factor of loss of general revenue that actually becomes a convenient playground for the drac boss to spread pain and misery in the name of efficient management.

In a situation very common in today’s economic depression where layoffs are an everyday occurrence, it becomes a tool of torture for the drac/boss. He can’t just come in and tell the workforce there is a lack of funds and impending job cuts. No, that would be too HUMAN! Like a cat playing with his prey before the kill, He must first tell his “elite” close group of confidents the truth, then let each of the others know they might lose their jobs and allow them to “prove” themselves as a worthy “blood source” to him.

This action serves many purposes:

1) Plays out time to show how the snake/boss has given the prey time to prove him/her self worthy of the corporation.

2) Shows how “fair” the snake/boss is to his superiors.

3) Creates an energy field that flows between the snake and its prey, creating at one moment a sense of well being, then the next minute total terror within the prey. This enhances and increases the adrenaline flow in the prey, which the snake then feeds off of.

4) This amuses the snake/boss and reinforces that he/she is in Total Control.

This interaction can go on for months but usually not years, until the snake is ready for the kill or until the prey is totally drained of energy or health.

Sometimes the snake will go to great dramatic lengths to charm his/her prey. Phone calls and special visits to the preys office to personally thank him/her, praise him/her for a job well done, feeding him/her candy, joking, smiling and special lunches. THIS IS A RED FLAG AND NOT TO BE TRUSTED!

This special treatment is usually followed by a major assault. The snake/boss loves the element of surprise in his attacks, especially when sugarcoated as it uplifts the prey into a euphoric false sense of wellbeing so that when the assault is delivered it is more devastating and has a more disastrous effect.

One must never lose sight of what they are dealing with when working for a rep/boss.

Remember also that there is a rhythm to the flow of energy between Drac/boss and subject. The Boss sets the energy flow though, so if you have one with mood swings or bi-polar tendencies, your work environment will be quite a roller coaster ride. This energy flow between Boss and subject often has a sadomasochistic element to it and in very sick situations can go on for years, while all co-workers are subject to the daily dramas and high stress within the office. It has a ripple effect with the workers around them, where many take sides and at times become an all out war especially in company meetings. The energies expended during these “bleeding sessions” also feed the drac/boss and energize her/him with resulting periods of ultra-creative bursts or quaint ideas that are implemented upon the employees who are used as valuable lab rats.

I want to give you some things to look for in defining what a rep/Drac run organization might exhibit, if you ever had a doubt:

• Consistent criticism, faultfinding and accusations that seem part truth/part lie.
• Refusal to acknowledge you or your contributions
• Attempts to undermine you, your position, status, worth, value or potential as an employee
• Being singled out and treated differently. (Others can get away with murder but you make one tiny mistake however trivial-action is taken against you.)
• Isolation from colleagues- being excluded from what is going on in general and in particular being excluded from meetings, decisions that include you and your area of work.
• Being belittled, patronized and verbally abused especially in front of an audience
• Overloaded with menial tasks while tasks that are vital to your position being taken away yet expected to be responsible for the outcome of all areas of your job description.
• Your work is plagiarized and others take credit for it with no repercussions.
• Responsibilities increased while your authority is taken away.
• Annual leave and sick leave refused (or forced to make up time missed in areas not in your job description).
• Being pushed or coerced into situations that result in your fired or quitting (such as being forced into early retirement.)
• Having unrealistic goals set which change as you approach them.
• Being written up for trivial things (to have something negative in your personnel file in the event you should sue the company)
• Deadlines are changed at short notice setting you up for failure.
• Everything you say or do is viewed as having a slant or agenda of its own.
• Being verbally asked to do things that are against Fair labor Standards such as working over 40 hours but not putting it on your timesheet.
• Feeling overwhelmed and drained of energy when in the presence of certain people.
• Becoming ill frequently, exhausted with little or disrupted sleep.
• Your work environment becomes more and more chaotic with more no-win situations, which prevent you from doing your work.
• Your boss asks you to do complex and meaningless tasks without a good reason, the reason being they just want it that way. (In other words, you find yourself doing your same job while juggling the jobs of five other people and all the while standing on your head to amuse the boss.)

The end results of this dance with not just the subjects but with the company overall are excessive stress, grief, discord amongst co-workers, loss of productivity, loss of revenue for trivial reasons, unhappy workers which eventually bleeds out to unhappy consumers and business associates. A drac/boss such as this will promise the higher-ups in the organization great and wonderful things, but in the end they bring the whole ship down around their ears and take everyone with them. The innate need for destruction and misery wins out in the end.

I cannot stress to you enough the power of this darkness within the psyche of the Drac/Boss….it is probably the strongest element of their makeup. They are not aware of this either or why everything they touch goes down in such a large way. This is the drac entity’s agenda….maybe this is their purpose on this earth, to torment mankind to remind man that he is nothing more than an animal with free will. Maybe they want to destroy any hope mankind might have for freedom or happiness or love. The workplace is a great vessel to destroy human dignity and self-worth. We spend one third of each day in the work environment.

One last thing to remember, if you find yourself in such an environment the best thing to do is find another job. You will find your world becoming smaller and smaller, where there are more of these lizard-types than of you. Your energy ad health will dwindle or you will become just as aggressive and agenda oriented as they are. Take a personal inventory of why you want to stay at that workplace….and ask yourself if their praise and esteem are important. It is healthier to not care if they see your true worth because you won’t be disappointed and they cannot hurt you as deeply. Know you cannot stop them and it is best to not expend your energy fighting them. If you choose to fight them, you must be very clever, have lots of friends in very high places and a clear agenda of your own that you must never reveal to anyone. Trust no one in this environment. A reptilian controlled environment brings the worst out in everyone involved.

My best advice is to tell you to get out and at some point you will see this on your own. This bloodthirsty arena is just a small cog in a giant industrial wheel that is taking place all over the country. Don’t let this damage your self-worth. Hopefully the future will show more human trends but for now just open your eyes and be watchful.

In more ways than one, Kundalini is an electrifying experience. A woman going through an extreme Kundalini process told me that her boyfriend got a shock every time he touched her, and her generally mellow-tempered cat's hair stood on end and it bolted away from her whenever she entered the room. She said her hands emitted such static electricity that papers and other small objects on tables would skitter away from her when she reached for them!

Shakti (the risen Kundalini) frequently interferes with household electricity. I know of several people who called in electricians to check all their home wiring (without finding defects) when this interference caused concern. Lights go dim or may flicker, or blink off and on in the vicinity of the awakening individual. I went through a period where I couldn't touch a light switch without the light bulb instantly burning out. Radio or TV channels may produce static in the presence of such a person. Electrical and mechanical equipment may break down far more frequently. One woman told me she had "burned out" four answering machines in a period of five weeks. There were times when my energy was so strong that if I simply walked into the room where Carl was using the computer or printer, these machines would instantly malfunction. As soon as I left the room, they would operate perfectly again! At the peak of her awakening, a woman told us her Kundalini voltage was strong enough to register on a compass; another was able to light an incandescent bulb simply by holding it in her hands.

Seemingly paranormal electromagnetic incidents are commonly reported. In my case, a television repeatedly turned itself on full blast in the middle of the night. Electrical appliances and battery-operated toys may turn on and off or malfunction like a movie scene announcing the landing of a UFO. Curiously, this kind of phenomena is frequently encountered by fibromyalgia victims, leading some to the speculation that FMS may be a severely physically impairing form of Kundalini awakening.

Objects may crack, move or fall in the presence of shakti. I went through a phase where whatever room I was in would make creaking, popping and other random noises for no apparent reason. One afternoon, I felt a sudden wild and emphatic throbbing in my spine. "Now what?" I thought, hoping this wasn't signaling some new physical disaster. After about 30 seconds, all this commotion in my spine stopped. I happened to turn on the TV and catch a news broadcast some while later, and it turned out that at the exact time I was feeling the throbbing in my spine, a moderate sized earthquake had struck in the region just east of us.

Vicki Noble had a similar synchronistic bodily manifestation as mine; a large boil developed on her back that she experienced as "a volcano needing to erupt." The day after she made this comment to her partner, "Mount Helens did erupt, and so did my boil!" (Shakti Woman).

These types of synchronistic inner and outer experiences are common with awakened Kundalini. I awoke the morning of April 19, 1995 feeling as if my body was full of shrapnel: I hurt all over. Later, I heard from many others who had similar stories; they had felt terrible on this day. Some felt "irrationally" angry or sad; others felt as if they were suffocating, buried alive or psychically exploding. Our sudden painful symptoms and reactions did not make sense to us until we heard news of the tragic Oklahoma bombing which occurred on this day.

As in the wake of NDE's and other encounters with the extraordinary, after Kundalini awakens, hypersensitivity is commonly experienced. Acute sensory awareness is technically known as "hyperesthesia" and is considered by the Aborigines to be the first stage in the entry into the mystical, primordial state they call "Dreamtime."

In his autobiography Of Water and the Spirit, the African shaman Malidoma Some says that newly spiritually initiated tribe members are "as vulnerable as a sick person who has passed the most critical stage of his or her illness and is now convalescing." The American healer/shaman Vicki Noble explains it this way: "Whereas it seems that the skin is the boundary of the person in 'normal' reality, when that same person opens psychically, the boundary expands. The person feels herself extending out beyond the body, taking up more space, feeling things in an extrasensory way. What we took for granted as a kind of density in the physical realm is suddenly called into question on every level." (from Shakti Woman)

There was a period in my awakening when for over a span of five or six months, my consciousness soared increasingly higher, evaporating my ordinary boundaries. Every few days I would find my awareness expanding in unexpected and often uncomfortable ways. At times, even my body seemed to dissolve in a staggering radiance of omnipresent energy. I developed hypersensitivity to both physical and mental vibrations. Everything became greatly amplified: colors were extremely vivid, odors pungent, tastes exquisite and sounds penetrating. As my hearing became more acute, if someone so much as dropped a pencil in the other room, I jumped as if a door had slammed. Sounds ceased to have an external quality; instead, every noise seemed to explode somewhere deep inside my brain.

I became painfully sensitive to the coarse and strident mental/subtle-field energy that is generally regarded as normal human output. I found I couldn't tolerate any programs on TV but nature documentaries. Eventually even these became too jarring. As my condition intensified, even if I wasn't watching television myself (and was in another part of the house), if someone else turned it on, I would feel as if psychic shrapnel was exploding out of the TV set. This would jolt me into painful bodily seizures. (Several other people with awakened Kundalini told me they experienced this same progression of intolerance for television "vibes.")

I've always loved to read, but here too, I found myself reacting adversely to anything written from ordinary third chakra consciousness (which covers the majority of printed material). I would feel physical pain (particularly in my solar plexus) when I tried to read these things. At the same time, I craved sacred writings: the Bible, the Upanishads, the yoga sutras, Buddhist texts, Native American and other ancient spiritual teachings, mystical poetry, etc. These scriptures were sustenance for me. At the pinnacle of my altered state, focusing to read anything was impossible.

I became sensitized to electric fields and discovered I couldn't be in the vicinity of operating electrical appliances (even a gently humming computer) without feeling electric shocks and disturbances in my aura. When meditating or asleep, this sensitivity was more exaggerated. My psychic and physical energy were so fragile and tenuously balanced at this time that the slightest stimulus would throw me into turmoil. For several months, if my husband so much as brushed his hand against me in our sleep, I would go into painful convulsions. Once, when my husband took a shower, I felt as if the earth's gravitational pull had suddenly increased tenfold. All the energy in my body was draining down to my feet. I couldn't tell if my energy was following the sound of the water flowing in the shower, or if it was being drawn by a magnetic pull from the water itself. Either way, it was a very strange experience.

My psychic antennae grew so acute, I overreacted to the slightest tension in the atmosphere. If anyone in my vicinity was even mildly annoyed or worried about something, I would be overcome by nausea. Other people's thoughts and feelings toward me had a strong psychic impact, even though I was living in almost total seclusion. Before the phone rang, I would know who was calling and the emotional state of the person making the call.

During this tremendously heightened period, I discovered I could detect physical problems in other people by simply scanning their auras with my hands. When I would pass over an area of the body that was injured, I would feel sharp, stabbing sensations in my hand. The author and New Age teacher, W. Brugh Joy, developed this same ability after his spiritual awakening. Since he was already a M.D., he was able to establish and confirm medical diagnoses in this way.

I had a remarkable encounter with another psychic during this time. My only contact with this man was via the telephone. As we were talking, I could definitely feel myself being psychically explored. I literally felt something that had a very active and gently probing quality -- the sensation was very much like a little creature scurrying around within my aura (or subtle body). This man told me that my energy was so strong it was causing his body to shake so much he could hardly hold onto the phone receiver. To steady himself, he decided to put up a mental "wall." I didn't directly sense his wall, but I immediately appreciated the result: I was nearly knocked off my chair by tidal waves of my own deflected energy! This was startling but even more astonishing was that the energy boomeranging back to me had a euphoric effect. This was the most literal demonstration I had ever had of my own "good vibes." I was thrilled to be able to feel the unmistakable reality of psychic forces in this way. The man with whom I shared this experience was equally gratified to find someone of sufficient sensitivity to meet him at this level of consciousness.

Going out in public -- especially where there are crowds -- can be an ordeal for someone who is hypersensitive. Temporary agoraphobia (a misnomer which literally translates as "fear of open spaces" but, in this case, is actually avoidance of psychic bombardment emitting from the general populace) is common among those whose Kundalini is very active, The disturbance is the result of the individual's undefended and vastly heightened receptivity to chaotic internal and external energies invisibly broadcast by others. To someone who has never experienced the raw vulnerability of psychic openness, this may seem like a paranoid excuse for withdrawn or asocial behavior. The fact is that many people who have these psychic-sponge experiences were socially gregarious and extroverted personalities prior to their Kundalini awakening. Stage fright (or fear of public speaking) is the most common phobia reported by otherwise "normal" people, and in my own case, all throughout my twenties and thirties, I thought nothing of doing weekly stage readings of my poetry before large audiences. Yet during my most sensitive times, simply riding as passenger in a car through the most ordinary street traffic felt like running a gauntlet.

It's possible that what is considered normal sensory reception is actually a state of self-protective numbness. Everything in the modern world serves to disconnect us from our instincts and blunts our awareness: our social conditioning, emotional repression, our obsessive left-brain thinking, incessant noise pollution, the visual cacophony of glaring advertisements everywhere in sight, the myriad EM waves and electrical fields intersecting our living space, and perhaps even the
artificiality of our diets, our architecture and clothing.

In his book Voices of the First Day, Robert Lawlor has pointed out that "The technological and industrial superiority of the northern hemisphere has been accomplished through a diminution of the bodily functions (such as decreased sensitivity to sensory stimuli and lowered sexual appetite) and a proportional increase in the conscious activities of the mind and brain." The use of metal and insulating glass structures in our buildings and rubber-soled shoes have all diminished our innate human sensitivity to the earth's geometric fields. Says Lawlor, "Western civilization is now enveloped in artificially induced magnetic fields that disrupt the organic functions of the body and mute human sensitivity to the magnetic ambience of the natural world."

Our basic physiology has been altered. "Almost all the functions of autonomic nervous system slow down when one is enclosed in a building or vehicle," says Lawlor, "because these functions are tuned to the subtle changes of natural light and geomagnetism." He speaks of studies revealing "the enormous physiological changes that occur in going from indoors to outdoors, or vice versa: breathing and heartbeat change; digestion, perspiration, and excretory functions alter; hormonal activity associated with the light-sensitive pituitary and pineal glands are also affected."

Even the structure of our language dulls our perceptions. "Our drive to impose generalities, categories, and fantastic projections on the world around us expresses the need to withdraw from the actual moment and to define the living uniqueness of nature with fictitious constructs or the familiar categories of our language and science," Lawlor observes. "We have closed ourselves off from the multilayered, spiritual dimensions of existence."

Add to these the manic pitch of our collective emotional state in a world based on competition and conflict and the toll of environmental toxins. When for the sake of self-preservation we learned to shield ourselves from the excesses of our screaming culture, we shut ourselves off from the raw vibrancy of existence. Life in its pure form is an intense sensory and psychically engaging experience. "Without awareness," says Ginny Whitelaw, "we essentially live the same day over and over." (BodyLearning: How the Mind Learns from the Body)

Spiritual awakening restores our original level of sensitivity, but this hurts when we are living in an embattled world. The problem then lies not in our level of sensitivity, but in the violent disharmony human beings have created and accepted as the normal state of affairs. Short of retreating to a pristine wilderness environment, we have little recourse in the midst of the disruptive factors of modern life. Our restored natural sensitivity becomes a mixed blessing.

The Council of Nine

http://www.forteantimes.com/artic/126/nine.html

One New Age channelling cult, above all the rest, has had a huge - very disturbing influence on hundreds of thousands of devotees worldwide. Known as 'The Nine', its disciples include cutting edge scientists, multi-millionaire industrialists and leading politicians. This exclusive extract based on The Stargate Conspiracy by Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince looks at the sinister origins of The Nine

I am the beginning. I am the end. I am the emissary. But the original time I was on the Planet Earth was 34,000 of your years ago. I am the balance. And when I say "I" - I mean because I am an emissary for The Nine. It is not I , but it is the group.We are nine principles of the Universe, yet together we are one.

The declaration above is typical of the channelled pronouncements of the Council of Nine - or just 'The Nine'. They contain all the usual New Age ingredients of grandiose statements, shaky grammar and unprovable predictions. But unlike all the other channelling cults, that of The Nine has serious clout. Perhaps the reason for this is that they claim to be the Ennead, or the nine major gods of ancient Egypt (see panel). Or could there be another reason, one that owes more to The X-Files than the Pyramid Texts?

Although The Nine may appear to be quintessentially a modern phenomenon, our research uncovered its truly astonishing pedigree. In fact, the story begins nearly 50 years ago, in a private research laboratory in Glen Cove, Maine, called the Round Table Foundation, run by a medical doctor named Andrija Puharich (also known as Henry K Puharich).Set up in 1948 to research the paranormal, among the noted psychics studied at the Foundation were the famous Irish medium Eileen Garrett and the Dutch clairvoyant Peter Hurkos (Pieter van de Hirk).Prominent members included the influential philosopher and inventor Arthur M Young and the socialite Alice Bouverie (née Astor).

Andrija Puharich

 In December 1952, Puharich brought into his laboratory an Indian mystic named Dr D G Vinod, who began to channel The Nine or 'the Nine Principles'.

In the months before Vinod returned to India, a group met regularly to hear The Nine's channelled wisdom. Never known for their modesty, The Nine proclaimed themselves to be God, stating "God is nobody else than we together, the Nine Principles of God."

Three years later, there appeared to be independent confirmation of their existence. In Mexico, Puharich and Young met Charles and Lillian Laughead, former Christian missionaries who were by then prominent in the burgeoning UFO contactee movement. (For a description of their involvement in the Dorothy Martin circle, see Jerome Clark's 'When Prophecy Failed' in FT117.) Back in the States a few weeks later, Puharich received a letter from the Laugheads containing messages received by their group's channeller. This message also claimed to come from the Nine Principles, even - amazingly - including references to the earlier communications transmitted through Dr Vinod. Could The Nine possibly be for real?

Perhaps the answer is embedded in the career of Puharich himself. After disbanding the Round Table Foundation in 1958, he worked for 10 years as an inventor of medical devices and achieved international recognition as a parapsychologist, most famously studying the Brazilian psychic surgeon, Arigo (José Pedro de Freitas). But all that was to pale into insignificance because, in 1971, Puharich discovered Uri Geller.

At their first meetings in Tel Aviv in 1971, Puharich hypnotised Geller in an attempt to find out where his abilities came from. As a result, the young Israeli started to channel 'Spectra' - an entity which claimed to be a conscious super-computer aboard a spaceship. However, Puharich suggested to him that there might be a connection with the Nine Principles, and Spectra readily agreed that there was. The Nine claimed that they had programmed Geller with his powers as a young child.

Through Geller, The Nine alerted Puharich to his life's mission, which was to use Geller's talents to alert the world to an imminent mass landing of spaceships that would bring representatives of The Nine. However, Geller - by now an international psychic superstar - bowed out in 1973 and has resolutely turned his back on The Nine ever since. Puharich had to find other channels. He joined up with aristocratic former racing driver Sir John Whitmore and Florida-based psychic and healer Phyllis Schlemmer. They found a new channeller - a Daytona cook known to history only by the pseudonym 'Bobby Horne' - who lived to regret his dealings with The Nine. Driven to the brink of suicide by their constant demands, he too dropped out of the scene - his despair being dismissed by Whitmore as "signs of instability".

After this, Phyllis Schlemmer was appointed the authorised spokesperson for the entity - known simply as 'Tom' - who represented The Nine.

Puharich, Whitmore and Schlemmer then set up Lab Nine at Puharich's estate in Ossining, New York. The Nine's disciples included multi-millionaire businessmen (many hiding behind pseudonyms and including members of Canada's richest family, the Bronfmans), European nobility, scientists from the Stanford Research Institute and at least one prominent political figure who was a personal friend of President Gerald Ford.

 We also know that Lyall Watson (then the darling of the alternative scene because of his seminal 1973 book Supernature) was involved, as was the influential counter-culture guru Ira Einhorn - and Gene Roddenberry, creator of Star Trek.

The key to predicting eclipses is noticing that they occur in cycles, or at more or less regular intervals. The Sun goes round the sky once a year; the Moon once a month. This means that, every month, the Moon 'overtakes' the sun. This happens at the New Moon, and this is when solar eclipses occur.

But, of course, we don't get an eclipse every New Moon. This is because the Moon has an elliptical orbit: sometimes it passes above the Sun when it overtakes it, sometimes below. But the Moon's elliptical orbit has its own

cycle: it returns to the same place it started from every 18 years or so.

Thus - if seen from the same place on Earth - an eclipse will be followed by another one just over 18 years later.

Roddenberry was part of that circle in 1974 and 1975, and even produced the screenplay for a movie about The Nine. How much he was influenced by them is unknown, although it is said that some of their concepts found their way into the early Star Trek movies, and The Next Generation and Deep Space Nine (what a giveaway!) series.

(There is a character named 'Vinod' in one Deep Space Nine episode.) Another key player in Lab Nine was Dr James J Hurtak, who was appointed Puharich's second-in-command by The Nine. In fact, Hurtak had been independently channelling The Nine since 1973. Puharich and Whitmore commissioned British writer Stuart Holroyd to write an account of their adventures, which appeared in 1977 as Prelude to the Landing on Planet Earth (retitled Briefings for the Landing on Planet Earth in paperback)

In this extraordinary book the true identity of the Nine - and of Tom - was finally revealed. Far from being the chummy character that his rather avuncular name suggests, Tom is actually Atum, the creator-god of the ancient Egyptian religion of Heliopolis, and Uncle Tom with his eight mates are none other than the Great Ennead of Heliopolis,

But even with such impressive contacts, all was not well with Puharich. Lab Nine broke up in 1978 after a series of mysterious events that culminated in an arson attack on the Ossining estate, and he fled to Mexico, claiming that he was being persecuted by the CIA. He returned to the USA two years later, and appears to have played no further part in The Nine story. He died in

1995 after falling down the stairs in his South Carolina home. However, The Nine continued. Not only did Schlemmer and Whitmore continue their mission, but Dr Hurtak has also moved on. He has become a major player in the unfolding millennial drama currently being played out at Giza, but perhaps more importantly he has established himself as a New Age guru par excellence, travelling the world giving workshops on his book of channelled revelations from The Nine, The Keys of Enoch. Written and laid out in classic Biblical style, its darkly apocalyptic vision has huge numbers of influential devotees.This we find very worrying.

Another Nine channel - an Englishwoman named Jenny O'Connor - was introduced to the avant garde Esalen Institute in San Francisco by Sir John Whitmore.

She and The Nine became so influential there that they held seminars and - unbelievably - were actually listed on the Institute's staff, even successfully ordering the sacking of its chief finance officer and the reorganisation of its entire management structure..

This should concern us, because many influential people attended The Nine's Esalen seminars, including Russians who were part of the Institute's Soviet Exchange programme. Some of these later rose to prominence in the Gorbachev regime and were instrumental in the downfall of Communism. (The Esalen Institute now runs the US branch of the Gorbachev Foundation.)

The Nine are very much still with us. One of their recent channels, who is also in contact with Tom, is the American writer David M Myers. He is co-author with Britain's David S Percy of that extraordinary tome Two-Thirds, a history of the galaxy and the human race according to Myer's otherwordly contacts (who clearly have no sense of the absurd). Percy - best known as a champion of the 'Face on Mars' and the 'hoaxing' of the Apollo moon landings - was at one time part of the Schlemmer circle. Among the other major proponents of the 'monuments' of Mars and their alleged connection with ancient Egypt is none other than Dr James Hurtak - The Nine's great prophet - who has promoted this idea since as long ago as 1973.

Richard C Hoagland - familiar to FT readers as another unrepentant 'Mars Face' enthusiast - is also clearly under The Nine's spell. David Myers and David Percy were, respectively, American and European Director of Operations for Hoagland's Mars Mission. In fact, his interpretation of the 'monuments'

of Mars comes directly from The Nine. Flake though he may appear (increasingly in these hallowed pages), but his influence over huge swathes of the hungrier mystery seekers is undeniable. This is the man who addresses rapt audiences at the United Nations.

But it is in the New Age channelling circuit that The Nine have truly come into their own. In any other circles their true agenda would no doubt have been rumbled long ago, but this is the New Age. Anything The Nine say must be sweetness and light, right? But an objective reading of their divine pronouncements reveal the first stirrings of something very nasty in Paradise.

Their words appeared in 1992 as the book The Only Planet of Choice, credited to 'transceiver' Schlemmer and edited by Mary Bennett (a one-time member of the Schlemmer circle who also edited Myers and Percy's Two-Thirds). This has had an unprecedented influence over the New Age. According to Palden Jenkins (editor of an earlier edition of Only Planet) more and more New Age channelling groups are 'realising' that the real source of their wisdom is The Nine. In fact, we have discerned what amounts to a campaign by The Nine - or their adherents - to 'take over' the New Age. It would be a mistake to underestimate the economic or even political potential of this vast subculture - rich pickings indeed.

But The Nine's influence does not extend merely to New Age channelling circles. Andrija Puharich, James Hurtak and Richard Hoagland have all lectured at the United Nations in New York. And individuals connected with The Nine are also known to have influence with Vice-President Al Gore. Of course, if The Nine really are the ancient gods of Egypt, then surely there could be fewer more significant events than their return. One may be justified in thinking that the more leading politicians who fall under their influence the better; but are they really the ancient Ennead of Egypt? Can it be that they have actually returned to sort us all out, scattering love and enlightenment from their high moral ground?

Tom, in The Only Planet of Choice, chooses his words carefully as he explains that all the races of the Earth were seeded from space-gods - except one, the "indigenous race", the blacks. He is very careful to urge us not to make an issue out of this. After all, it's not the black race's fault that they have no divine spark like the rest of us.

Perhaps the most disturbing aspect of the history of The Nine is its relationship to the career of Andrija Puharich. Recent research has revealed Puharich to have a distinctly sinister side. As an Army doctor in the 1950s, he was deeply involved with the CIA's notorious MKULTRA mind control project (see panel). He - together with the infamous Dr Sidney Gottlieb - experimented with a variety of techniques to change or induce actual thought processes. even to creating the impression of voices in the head. These techniques included the use of drugs, hypnosis and beaming radio signals directly into the subject's brain. And, significantly, he was engaged in this work at exactly the same time that The Nine made their first appearance at the Round Table Foundation. The Foundation itself is now known to have been largely funded by the Pentagon as a front for its medical and parapsychological research. Puharich was still working for the CIA in the early 1970s, when he brought Uri Geller out of Israel. Puharich's use of hypnosis is particularly interesting in The Nine circle. In the case of Uri Geller and Bobby Horne, he first hypnotised them and then suggested that they were in touch with The Nine - and lo, they were! Ira Einhorn - a close associate of Puharich's during the 1970s - confirmed to us that he believed that Puharich was "humanly directing" The Nine communications.

The evidence we have gathered strongly suggests that Tom and his fellow gods originated, not in the stars, but behind closed doors as part of a CIA mind control experiment. And what happened to that experiment? Now with hundreds of thousands of devotees, some in very high places, can The Nine be deemed a success? Of course, that depends very much on what the CIA had in mind. With their subtle racist propaganda, perhaps the flaky New Age Nine should worry the hell out of us.

Rev A [1]

A powerful wing of the Anglo-American Establishment is currently under investigation by this news service for its role in promoting the cults of Satanism and Luciferianism, for spawning an entire subculture of drug-induced violence believed to be behind the recent pattern of hideous ritual murders. As Dianne Core, a leading British expert in the battle against Satanism, put it recently, "We are in the middle of spiritual warfare, and the Satanic weapons are all pointed at the young."

It is no coincidence, that this wing of the Establishment includes many of the leading advocates of a New Yalta deal with Moscow--top figures of the United Nations bureaucracy, and leading elite families. As we document below, they even look to Mikhail Gorbachov as the premier world cult leader in what they call their "Externalized Hierarchy."

In this article, the first of an ongoing series, we present a dossier of some of the principal institutions and individuals behind this evil "New Age" movement. The reader will learn, how behind the oh-so-nice U.N. brochures and talk about "peace," some of the leading figures of this grouping have been exposed as practicing the most obscene homosexual and child pornography rituals imaginable. Take the notorious case of Canon Edward West, the coordinator of the American association of the Most Venerable Order of St. John. Eyewitness accounts indicate that during the 1980s, he was a frequent participant in obscene sexual rituals at homosexual S&M clubs in Manhattan, including the Mineshaft and the Hellfire Club (named after an 18th-century English secret Satanic society). Favorite "entertainment" at the Mineshaft included having children urinate on the patrons. In the mid-1980s, the club was shut down, following an investigation by the New York Police Department, which found links to organized crime circles, including those of John Zaccaro, the husband of 1984 Democratic vice presidential nominee Geraldine Ferraro.
- The evil friends of Bishop Moore -

The Cathedral of St. John the Divine, the medieval temple of the Episcopalian Archdiocese of New York, has become the mother institution of the New Age movement in the United States, whose goal is to eclipse the Age of Pisces� (Christianity) with an Age of Aquarius (Lucifer). The presiding bishop of the cathedral, Bishop Paul Moore, whose family is heir to the Nabisco company fortune, has been in the forefront of creating this Satanic "new world order," since at least the late 1950s, when, as a priest in Indianapolis, Indiana, he gave the "People's Temple" cult of Jim Jones its start.

Later in 1977, Bishop Moore rocked the Christian world, when he ordained a militant lesbian, Ellen Marie Barrett, who told Time magazine that it was her lesbian love affair that gave her strength to serve God. Bishop Moore claims that the ordination of lesbians, and his other Gnostic heresies, are merely part of the ongoing revelation of God's truth to man by the Holy Spirit, which had been prophesied by the Disciple John.

With this dissembling rationale, Bishop Moore has transformed the Cathedral of St. John the Divine into a Gnostic stronghold for such organizations as: The Lucis Trust, founded in 1922 by Alice Bailey, a disciple of Theosophist Madame Helena Blavatsky. Originally named the Lucifer Trust, it became a mother institution of the modern New Age movement; The Temple of Understanding, which is headquartered at the cathedral under its president, the Very Reverend Dean James Parks Morton, dean of the cathedral. It has turned the cathedral into a harbor for Gnostic religions ranging from Tibetan Buddhism to Sufi Freemasonry; The medieval village of Lindesfarne, New York, which is to be the model for a New Age lifestyle, once the Earth has been purified of its billions of non-white souls; A special ministry to Sufi Freemasons who were a historical deployment against Ibn Sina and the Arab Renaissance, and whose modern-day cathedral affiliates have been linked to the assassination of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat; The Zen Center, which teaches meditation to the elite of the Liberal Establishment; gay and lesbian organizations, which seek to legitimize their sin by arguing that the "beloved disciple" John had a homosexual affair with Christ, or else by creating Mother Goddess religions in the cathedral's crypts; a medieval chivalric order known as the Most Venerable Order of the Hospital of St. John, which, under the direction of the Duke of Gloucester of the British Royal Family, has inculcated the "Episcopagan" American Establishment in such Gnostic evil as the necessity to spread Shi'ite fundamentalism under the Ayatollah Khomeini in Iran, because the Shah had "sinned" by trying to industrialize his nation.

The serried ranks of the dead among Jim Jones's "Peoples Temple" cult, who had consumed cyanide-laced Kool-Aid on orders from Jones, are merely the more public casualties of the Age of Aquarius, when those bearing the "Mark of the Beast" (666) are to be unleashed upon the Earth once again. Throughout the United States, the Satanic New Age movement has grown to become a major threat to the Judeo-Christian tradition upon which our republic was founded. Among the more recent signs of this upsurge are the Atlanta child murders, the case of New York child-beater Joel Steinberg, and the mass murder of school children in Stockton, California by a drug addict wearing a "[censored]" T-shirt.�

- The Soviet connection -

There is a national security dimension to the growth of the New Age movement. Starting in 1982, Bishop Moore returned from the Soviet Union to warn that unless the Anglo-American Establishment carried out appeasement of the Soviets, the Russians would launch a thermonuclear first strike. Moore, who entered the 1970s "peace movement" by visiting with the Vietcong-controlled, underground peace movement in Vietnam, had by 1983 joined with the pro-terrorist Institute for Policy Studies and the U.S.A.-Canada Institute of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences, to mobilize the American peace movement to stop the Strategic Defense Initiative. Thirty top Soviet intelligence officers, who were joined by Bishop Moore, gave marching orders to the American peace leadership to this effect in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1983.

Last February, the Cathedral of St. John the Divine hosted a "February Fling," sponsored by the Temple of Understanding, which brought together top Soviet officials to meet with their counterparts in the West. Through Fr. Luis Dolan, who travels to the U.S.S.R. every six weeks to get marching orders from officials of the CPSU International Department-controlled Soviet Peace Center, the Temple of Understanding overlaps the Center for Soviet-American Dialogue, which is involved in extensive exchanges, whose purpose is to remove the "enemy image" of the U.S.S.R. being an "evil empire." Father Dolan also works with Wainwright House, which has several programs along the same lines and which hosted a U.S.-U.S.S.R. Citizens Summit. Spokesmen for the Lucis Trust believe that Mikhail Gorbachov may be the premier world leader in their "Externalized Hierarchy," giving impetus to a "Plan" for a "new world order" of Luciferian values and behavior. The Lucis Trust also carries out exchanges with the Soviet Union, where they believe "Triangle Cells'' pray the "Great Invocation'' for the coming Age of Aquarius. These Luciferians welcome Gorbachov, who bears the "Mark of the Beast'' on his forehead.�

- Isis priestess of the Aquarian Age -

The New Age movement's enthusiasm for Gorbachov is really no surprise. The roots of this movement date back to the 1870s, when Madame Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (nee Princess Hahn in 1831 in Ekaterinoslav, Georgia) was deployed by a combination of "Black Hundreds'' forces that included the Okhrana (Czarist secret service) and the Russian Orthodox Church, to destroy Augustinian Christianity in the West, through the creation of a Satanic ideology known as Theosophy, which was a syncretism of Eastern religions. As one Theosophical Society brochure made clear, its goal was "to oppose the materialism of science and every form of dogmatic theology, especially the Christian, which the Chiefs of the Society regard as particularly pernicious."

The deployment of Madame Blavatsky into the West had been part of the same effort--called the "Dostoevsky Project" by the Theosophically-inspired Frankfurt School--which led the Okhrana to unleash the Scottish Freemasonic forces of the liberal Alexander Kerensky, then the "dark forces" of the Bolsheviks (many of whom, including V.I. Lenin, had been trained on the Isle of Capri in the cult beliefs of the Emperor Tiberius, who murdered Christ), for an assault upon the Petrine state. Among those principally responsible for deploying the hashish-addicted Blavatsky into the West were: Count Alexander Ignatiev, one-time head of the Okhrana as interior minister, whose family later joined with the Bolshevik Revolution; Imperial Privy Councilor Prince Aksakov, whose correspondence with Blavatsky reveals him to be a key controller; Fyodor Dostoevsky, whose writings have regained popularity under Gorbachov, because they were a19th-century revival of the Russian Orthodox Church's "blood-and-soil" doctrine [a Luciferic throwback to previous evolutionary epochs] that Moscow would become "the Third and Final Rome"; and, Mikhail, Vladimir, and Vsevelod Soloviev, who, from such bases as the St. Petersburg Ecclesiastical Academy, propounded the doctrines of Spiritualism that are being revived in Russia today, and who profiled Blavatsky as Tentacles of the Blavatsky deployment extended quickly through the West:

United States - In 1873, Blavatsky traveled to the U.S., where with the Spiritualist Colonel Olcott, she founded the American Theosophical Society, whose headquarters became Pasadena, California. Colonel Olcott had been involved in seances at this time on a farm in Chittenden, Vermont, with Mary Baker Eddy, who founded Christian Science as co-extensive with Theosophy. Later, Olcott accompanied Blavatsky to Adyar, India, which became the spiritual center of the cult.

Great Britain - In 1883, Blavatsky's disciple Annie Besant, who later assumed Blavatsky's mantle as High Priestess of Theosophy, was a co-founder of the British Fabian Society (predecessor of the Labour Party) together with Gnostic Christians and Spiritualists, including the Spiritualist Frank Podmore, later British Prime Minister J. Ramsay Macdonald, Soviet agent Lord Haldane, Lord and Lady Passfield, the Freemason William Clarke, Earl Bertrand Russell, Viscount and Viscountess Snowden, Lord Sidney Oliver, Lord Thomson, and others. In the same year, Scottish noble Douglas Dunglas Home, who had sponsored Blavatsky as early as 1858 and given seances for the Czar, returned to Great Britain, where with support of the Cecil family, he founded the Society for Psychical Research, whose members included Arthur Conan Doyle, Lord Balfour, Lord Bertrand Russell, John Dewey, and William James.

Another excrescence of Theosophy was the explicitly Satanist Edward Aleister Crowley's Order of the Golden Dawn (or, Stella Matutina), which overlapped the predominantly Anglo-American Ordo Templi Orientis (OTO) and the Thule Society in Munich, which gave birth to the Nazi Party through the good offices of Houston Stewart Chamberlain, Karl Haushofer, Rudolf Hess, and the Wagner Kreis.

Germany - Blavatsky's co-controller, Count Aksakov, established in Leipzig, Germany a Theosophical magazine, Psychische Studien, which was influential upon the careers of Sigmund Freud and especially Carl Jung. It also influenced the schismatic Theosophist Rudolf Steiner, who founded in 1913 the Dornach, Switzerland-based Anthroposophy sect, which has lately been a leading influence within West Germany's Free Democratic Party, and also the seed-crystal in southern Germany of the fascist Green party. [2] Meanwhile, in the 1920s, a Berlin-based Theosophist, Graf von Reventlow, founded a European network of the Comintern's Baku Conference of "Oppressed Peoples,'' which sought to merge Marxism with Sufism.

Switzerland - The Ascona, Switzerland secret base of Theosophy--centered around a cult of Astarte--was the spiritual center of the Frankfurt School, which overlapped the Soviet GRU (military intelligence) through such founders as Hede Massing, Richard Sorge, and Max Horkheimer, who developed the "Authoritarian Personality'' dogma to target and destroy those who based their behavior upon natural law. Ascona was also a spiritual center of the "Children of the Sun'' gay and lesbian networks, which overlapped the Philby, Burgess, Maclean spy network in Great Britain. Finally, Ascona was the religious center for the Theosophical psychiatrist Carl Jung, popularizer of the Gnostic Bible. Among Jung's disciple-patients were: Mary Bancroft, the mistress-secretary of Allen Dulles, who was OSS chief in Switzerland during World War II; and Mary and Paul Mellon, who, on their return to the U.S. in 1939, founded the Bollingen Foundation to propagate Gnosticism and a study center on witchcraft at Princeton University. Also, Lenin himself participated in cult dances on Monte Verita in Ascona.�

- Alice Bailey and the Lucis (Lucifer) Trust -

Alice La Trobe Bateman was the founder in 1920 of the Lucifer Trust, which represented a syncretism of Gnostic Christianity with Blavatsky's Theosophy. Bailey's Gnostic doctrine transformed God into Nietzschean Will, while Christ is considered merely a lowly part of the many "Ascended Masters," who form a "Hierarchy," that is eventually to be "externalized" to carry out a "Plan" for a "new world order" that is otherwise known to Bailey's disciples as the Age of Aquarius or Age of Maitreya. The Lucis Trust, which today has Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) status at the United Nations and has been given legitimacy by the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, has spawned an array of New Age fronts, including the Temple of Understanding.

Born in Britain, Alice was raised an Episcopalian, before separating from her first husband, a drunken missionary to the United States, who beat her frequently. Relocated from Britain to the West Coast, she was recruited into the Pacific Grove Lodge of Theosophy in 1915. By 1920, she became editor of the American Theosophists' newspaper, The Messenger. In this same year she married Foster Bailey (a Scottish Rite Freemason and Co-Mason), and she launched a fight with Annie Besant for control of Theosophy, which Alice Bailey lost, when Besant's man, Louis Roger, was elected president. Immediately after the dust settled, Alice and Foster Bailey founded their own Tibetan Lodge, then the Lucifer Trust, whose name was abridged in 1922 to its present Lucis Trust.

By the 1930s, Bailey claimed 200,000 members, and her faction of Theosophy grew even more rapidly after Krishnamurti in 1939 denounced Besant's scheme to promote him as the Messiah. Throughout these years, Bailey spent her summers in Ascona, Switzerland, where along with Mary and Paul Mellon, she attended Jung's Eranos Conferences. Bailey established a series of fronts, which include:

The Arcane School - Founded in 1923, the school gives correspondence courses in meditation from its branches in New York, Geneva, London, and Buenos Aires. A brochure states: "The presentation of the teaching adapted to the rapidly emerging new civilization stresses the training of disciples in group formation, a technique which will characterize the discipleship service in the Aquarian Age."

World Goodwill - Founded in 1932, the organization is recognized by the United Nations today as an NGO. Ever since the dropping of the atomic bomb (which is seen by these kooks as a spiritual manifestation of Luciferian light), Lucis Trust has sought to give the U.N. a monopoly over nuclear weapons with which to impose a "one world federalist empire" upon sovereign nations. World Goodwill works directly with the "world federalists," and is part of the work to "Externalize the Hierarchy" of "Illumined Minds," which will usher in an "Age of Maitreya," otherwise interpreted by Bailey to be the return of Christ prophesied in the biblical book of Revelations.

Triangles - Founded in 1937, Triangles is the name for a global network of cells, whose members pray a "Great Invocation," especially on the night of the full moon, when members of the Triangle can be influenced by the astrological signs of the zodiac.
Findhorn - This is the sacred community of the New Age movement, based in Great Britain. Bailey disciple David Spangler, another explicit Luciferian, became co-director of the Findhorn Foundation, when he formed the Lorian Association. He sits on the boards of directors of Planetary Citizens, the secretariat of Planetary Initiative for the World We Choose (launched at the Cathedral of St. John in 1982), and is a contributing editor to New Age Magazine.

But, Lucis is not limited to low-level Satanists. When he was Secretary of Defense in the early-1960s, Robert McNamara prayed to the full moon along the Potomac River, according to journalist Edith Roosevelt. The Lucis Trust endorsed McNamara's tenure as head of the World Bank--which is hardly surprising, since Lucis believes in the Blavatskyian "Great White Brotherhood," which is consistent with the neo-malthusian aim of the International Monetary Fund to exterminate darker-skinned races. [3] Not only does Bailey explicitly seek to destroy the nation state, which she equates with the "idealism" of the Age of Pisces, but in her 1954 work Education in the New Age, she also endorses Nazi eugenics and sex hygiene to purify the race. Apart from U.N. Secretary General Javier Parez de Cuellar, spokesmen for Lucis view Mikhail Gorbachov as the greatest world leader externalizing their "Plan" today.�

- The Temple of Understanding -�

The Lucis Trust in 1963 founded a more distanced front group, the Temple of Understanding, which also has NGO status and worked out of the U.N. premises directly, until in 1984 it shifted headquarters to the Cathedral of St. John the Divine. The Lucis Trust and the Temple remain covertly entwined to this day.�

While the chairman of the Temple is Judith Dickerson Hollister, those involved with its founding were: the late "Isis Priestess" of anthropology, Dame Margaret Mead of the Order of St. John; Order of St. John's Canon Edward West; U.N. deputy secretary general Robert Muellar, who had been involved as well with the Lucis Trust; and one Winifred McCulloch, leader of the New York-based Teilhard de Chardin Society.

Dormant for several years after a major expose by Edith Roosevelt, the Temple was revived at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in 1984 at a ceremony presided over by Bishop Paul Moore and the Dalai Lama. According to the past executive director, Priscilla Pedersen, its present board overlaps that of David Rockefeller's Trilateral Commission. Recent activities of the Temple include:

Global Forum of Spiritual and Parliamentary Leaders on Human Survival. Held in Oxford, England April 11-15, 1988, its luminaries included the Dalai Lama, the Archbishop of Canterbury, and Carl Sagan. Co-organizers of the Global Forum were the Temple of Understanding and the Global Committee of Parliamentarians on Population and Development, which latter advocates neo-malthusian population reduction as the solution to the world's ills. Present also at the conference were four Soviet Communist Party Central Committee members, including Dr. Evgenii Velikhov, Vice President of the Soviet Academy of Sciences. At the Global Forum, Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz, founder-director of the Israel Institute for Talmudic Publications, agreed with Velikhov to set up an institute to gather the Judaica of Russia.

In January 1990, the Oxford Global Forum will be followed by a Temple of Understanding event in Moscow, which is being sponsored by the Russian Orthodox Church, the Supreme Soviet, and the Soviet Academy of Sciences. The main thrust of the follow-on conference will be to get world religious and political leaders working together on such neo-malthusian ecological schemes as the "greenhouse effect" hoax. This is merely a global replay, which has the backing of the Soviet Union, which agreed to a Dartmouth Conference proposal in the 1960s to promote ecology in exchange for unilateral Western arms control deals.

The North American Interfaith Network - It was established last year to bring together the major religions in a theocratic institutional network. Its director is Rev. Daniel Anderson, a Lutheran, who was recently coopted to be executive director of the Temple, working out of the Cathedral of St. John.
The Wichita North American Assisi Conference - This conference, held Oct. 30-Nov. 1, 1988 in Wichita, Kansas, was in preparation for the 1993 celebration of the centennial of the launching of the "New Religions" movement by Chicago Round Tabler William T. Stead. Like the Global Forum, the Wichita conference brought together American Indians, Sikhs, Sufis, Buddhists, Islamic fundamentalists, and Jews.

February Fling - This was a two-week celebration at the Cathedral of St. John in 1988, to promote 100 prominent Soviets. It was co-sponsored by the Temple of Understanding and the Center for Soviet-American Dialogue. Catholic priest Fr. Luis Dolan, who sits on the board of both institutions, was the organizer of the tour. Father Dolan is head of the Citizens Diplomacy Center of Wainwright House, which sponsors a multitude of East-West exchange programs oriented toward removing the "enemy image'' of the U.S.S.R. as an "evil empire."

Wainwright House's Institute for Spiritual Development was directed by Judith Hollister, the founding chairman of the Temple of Understanding. Through Father Dolan, Wainwright House has pledged to work on four East-West projects in 1989 with the Temple. Among these is a project on ecology, for which Wainwright House has received funding from Lawrence Rockefeller to promote.

Another board member of the Temple is the Rabbi Arthur Schneier, self-described as the "Jewish Armand Hammer." Rabbi Schneier controls the question of emigration of Jewish Refuseniks, and a colleague states that he has lined up with Edgar Bronfman to call for repeal of the Jackson-Vanik trade amendment, because under Gorbachov, Jewish emigration from the Soviet Union has increased.�

- Center for Soviet-American Dialogue -

The Center is a major back channel between the New Age movement and the U.S.S.R., and has been taken over by New Age leaders including:

Barbara Marx Hubbard. She is a founding member and co-director of the Soviet-American Council for Joint Projects. She co-founded Win-Win-World and is President of the Foundation for Co-Creation. Her name was placed in nomination for the vice presidency on the Democratic ticket in 1984. Hubbard, who entered the New Age movement under the influence of Teilhard de Chardin, created a "human front" in 1967 of those sharing a belief in transcendent consciousness, which became the Committee for the Future. Hubbard called this transcendent consciousness "supra-sex," and she has an extensive network of congressmen involved in the process of haruspication.

Willis Harman, president of the Institute of Noetic Sciences and Senior Social Scientist at the Stanford Research Institute International. The Institute for Noetic Sciences has worked closely with the Temple of Understanding, while SRI has had among its trainees such figures as former Secretary of State George Shultz, who believes not only in global-power sharing "New Yalta" arrangements with the U.S.S.R., but also in convergence through a New Age based upon cybernetics. Harman is the brains behind Marilyn Ferguson, whose book The Aquarian Conspiracy sought to popularize Luciferian Gnosticism. Harman is also a founding member of Hubbard's Soviet-American Council for Joint Projects, and he is chairman of the Independent Commission for a Viable Future. Harman's own 1974 The Changing Image of Man coined the phrase "paradigm shift" to describe the sought-after transformation from the Age of Pisces to the Age of Aquarius.

James A. Garrison, executive director of the Soviet-American Exchange Program at the Esalen Institute, which has been linked directly to Soviet "psychic espionage" activities of the KGB and GRU, penetrating the U.S. military and intelligence communities. This is the modern work of the Blavatsky-Okhrana intelligence deployment, which works today through the likes of Soviet "spoonbender" Yuri Geller.�

[2] Steiner broke from the Blavatsky-Besant-Bailey brand of "Theosophy" because it had been "hijacked" by various forces with selfish and evil agendas. He indicated that his mission was to purify Theosophy. It appears to me that his teachings are being misused to convey an aura of authority on certain movements which take them out of context.


[3] The term "white" in this case refers to a class of initiates, not skin color, although I share Thompson's mistrust of Bailey's "guides" and doubt that they were members of this benevolent class.

Preface

"Live the life and ye shall know the doctrine" say the wise of all cultures and eras. If we were consistently to live the higher life we would experience the reality of the spiritual realms. Being in communion with one's higher self, one's inner master or guru, one is privy to its wisdom garnered through many lives of learning and evolving. Every human being is a child, a disciple, of his higher self, his inner monitor. Sooner or later he will come to realize that "living the life" means living in consonance with his noblest ideals. But how achieve this? How bridge the chasm between our aspirations and the pull of material interests that hold us in bondage?

In 1974 on the centenary of G. de Purucker's birth, Theosophical University Press published Fountain-Source of Occultism, a vast panorama of teaching about man and cosmos based upon The Secret Doctrine of H. P. Blavatsky. Preceding the philosophic discourses which form the greater part of the work, Dr. de Purucker inserted two sections he hoped would create in the reader the proper atmosphere for the doctrinal studies that would follow. Unless one approaches the temple of nature with a reverent heart, any knowledge gleaned along the way could in the end imprison the soul.

Since then, the demand for guidelines has intensified, with all types of minds seeking personal transformation by any means that will help them break through their limitations. As a result, brilliant insights are coming to the fore in several disciplines; at the same time, human nature being in the main unruly, acquisitive, and unthinking, the marketplace of ideas is a jungle of discordant claims. The hunger for experiential knowledge, whether earned or not, is proving a mixed blessing.

To answer the urgent call for guidance, for an Ariadne thread out of the labyrinth of psychic and mental confusion, we have reproduced in the present booklet these first sections of Fountain-Source so that the seeker may have readily to hand an inspired vision of the path before him. Time-honored rules of ethical and spiritual conduct are illumined, along with warnings against quick and easy methods. There is no shortcut to wisdom, no instant enlightenment, for inner unfolding takes place only from within; it cannot be induced artificially. And while the path to the gods, to conscious awareness of and union with our inner divinity is long and often arduous, demanding our utmost in devotion, fidelity, and perseverance, it is also "bright with joy, and lighted with the fires of the spirit."

We are sustained by the knowledge that we and the whole of humanity are linked with the Hierarchy of Compassion: the Brotherhood of advanced human beings whose lives are consecrated to quickening and nurturing the seeds of altruism in the awakening soul.

Foreword to Fountain-Source of Occultism

A work of art stands or falls by its power to inspire. With a book such as Fountain-Source of Occultism, which treats of cosmic truths and man's timeless search for answers, all the more must its message stand or fall on worth alone. Of this G. de Purucker is pre-eminently aware; he does not profess to provide the definitive statement, the final word of truth. What he does offer is an illumined interpretation of the universal wisdom on which the Secret Doctrine of the ages -- and of H. P. Blavatsky's masterpiece of that name -- is founded.

Born on January 15, 1874 in Suffern, Rockland County, New York, de Purucker lived in the United States until the late '80's when the family moved to Geneva, Switzerland. His father, an Episcopal minister, had been appointed chaplain of the American Church there; a learned man and utterly committed, his inmost wish was to have his son ordained in the Anglican Communion. So he personally taught the boy Latin, Greek and Hebrew, had him tutored in modern European languages, as well as in the history and literature of Biblical peoples and of ancient Greece and Rome.

The youth applied himself with assiduity, but his was a profoundly inquiring mind, with a natural intuitive sense of what was spiritually true and what was counterfeit. Before he reached eighteen, he knew with certainty that he could not enter the church; that, in fact, no formal religion could ever bind him. The quest for the gnosis, the living wisdom behind the externals of rite and dogma, had taken powerful hold.

The shock to the parents was grievous: here was their son, destined from childhood for the ministry, able to read the Holy Scriptures in their original tongues, and trained in the functions and responsibilities of a pastor -- turned agnostic.

Deeply troubled, the young man left his home and studies in Geneva, sailed for America and, after spending a few months in New York, came to California where he worked on various ranches in San Diego County. All the while he continued his search, "looking around me, right and left, trying to find the clue to the mysteries of life and death which were bothering me so badly." He bought books on the Tarot as well as on mind-healing, to find they did not satisfy. When he came across a translation of one of the Upanishads, he set to work to master Sanskrit, just as he had earlier perfected himself in Anglo-Saxon, believing with Heine, the poet, that "with every new language, one wins a new soul."

Then one day, he tells us, a small book on Theosophy fell into his hands, and "it startled me":

I saw high thinking! I felt that there was more in this book than what an agnostic had seen. My years of study and reading of the literatures of the world -- ancient literatures especially -- had taught me to recognize ancient truth when I saw it. I was fascinated with something that I had always known in my heart; and it was this, that there has always existed, and that there exists today, a band, a company, a society, an association, of noble Sages, great Seers, "Wise Men of the East," as this book called them.

We do not know the name of the book, but we do know that on August 16, 1893, Hobart Lorenz Gottfried de Purucker (later known as G. de P. to his associates) joined the Theosophical Society then headed in America by William Q. Judge, co-founder in 1875 with H. P. Blavatsky and H. S. Olcott of the modern theosophical movement. As a member of the San Diego Lodge and a regular user of their library, de Purucker helped organize a Secret Doctrine Class, and though only nineteen soon was appointed "permanent reader," moderating and guiding the studies of the members, most of whom were considerably older than he. For the next 49 years, to the day of his death on September 27, 1942, G. de P. gave of the fullness of himself in the service of his fellow men -- a service which was to find magnificent expression in his elucidation of the spiritual principles of theosophy.

Everything he said, in private or in public print, was an amplification of his youthful vision of the Oneness of the divine impress, and of the experiencibility of that Oneness by every human being. Fountain-Source of Occultism is no exception.

In July 1929, when Gottfried de Purucker succeeded Katherine Tingley to the leadership of the Theosophical Society with international headquarters then at Point Loma, California, he initiated a series of esoteric studies for the purpose of stimulating the seeds of altruism as well as of giving instruction in the deeper aspects of theosophy. No question was too simple, none too complex, for careful examination. He insisted, however, that always the 'scientific-philosophical' points of doctrine be infused with the 'ethical-mystical': only as one lived the teaching he learned about would it yield its esoteric content.

The present volume derives from twelve booklets of instruction privately printed in 1936. These had been compiled by a small committee under Dr. de Purucker's general supervision from the stenographic reports of esoteric meetings held by him from 1929 to 1933, to which he added certain relevant passages from his published works, as well as a copious amount of fresh material on a wide variety of subjects.

Of particular interest is the order of presentation, as he had himself arranged this with exceeding care. His primary concern, he explained, was to allow the student at the outset -- before he might be caught up by the fascination of the highly philosophical teachings later developed -- full opportunity to absorb the ideal of unselfish service, which marks the path of compassion chosen by mankind's spiritual Mentors. Moreover, when asked why he had started off the strictly doctrinal portion of the series with an abstruse treatise on Space and Maya, instead of with the practical themes of karma and rebirth which are easily grasped, he countered that those ideas were already dealt with abundantly in the published literature of the Society. His whole endeavor was to raise the student's consciousness out of the narrow confines of the purely personal into cosmic reaches where even the knottiest of human problems could be seen in truer proportion.

Obviously, then, the book presupposes some knowledge of basic theosophical thought. But does this mean it has little to offer those to whom these ideas may be new? Quite the contrary, for here is food for reflection for all seekers, whatever their spiritual or religious leanings; and equally for those who have broken away from their credal moorings and are seeking a philosophy of meaning to which they can anchor. In brief, it addresses itself to all who recognize the interrelatedness of human destiny to the cosmic design; who intuitively sense that the pilgrimage of man spans a multiplicity of lives on earth so that the soul in the course of ages can bring forth its latent godhood. Above all, it speaks to those who in their most private moments feel the call of the inward way, to find the still, small path and take the ancient vow of self-dedication to the service of mankind.

There may be some, perhaps, who might wish that Dr. de Purucker had limited his use of foreign terms to the minimum, and presented the theosophical viewpoint simply, with a clear-cut exposition of theme. For in Fountain-Source, in tracing the descent of spirit into matter and its reascent to its pristine source, we read of lokas and talas, of planes and dhatus, of monads and sheaths.

There is sound reason for the use of so rich a terminology, drawn from the religious and philosophic treasuries of Orient and Occident. The root ideas are identic, but each lightbringer transmits his vision of Reality through the lens of his own initiatory experience. Consequently, every spiritual seer gives what appears to be a unique presentation, when actually he is simply clothing in different outer form the same occult verity. It was not only to enrich the understanding of those attached to a particular faith, but likewise to aid students of comparative religion, philosophy and mythology that Dr. de Purucker exhaustively demonstrates that the many and various names in the ancient literatures for God and the gods and their manifold functions are but variant manners of describing the one evolutionary process.

But the book is more than an orderly treatment of doctrine; rather is it a quickener of the intuition. If the reader can follow the author's sometimes tenuous yet always unbreakable sequence of thought, he may discover, in a sudden flash of insight, what H.P.B. was actually saying in this or that "difficult" passage. What was formerly baffling even to the very astute, may become, often without his brain-mind being aware of it, luminous with practical wisdom.

However, just because the volume before us consistently delineates this and that teaching in The Secret Doctrine or The Mahatma Letters, let it not be thought that the author regards the writings of H.P.B. or her teachers as "a final test of infallible authority, the way the Christians have set up their Bible and then worshiped it" -- to quote from a letter G. de P. wrote on June 14, 1932 to A. Trevor Barker. "If that were the case, we would never evolve. H.P.B.'s books would be sacrosanct. . . . We must stand for the principles of things. It is very important."

Time and again the author reminds us that the only authority, the only real initiator, for each individual is his own higher self. The paradox is that Dr. de Purucker does speak "as one with authority," the authority of profound spiritual experience. Because of this many, many doors are opened wide, although as many remain closed or only slightly ajar, awaiting the moment when the reader himself will give the knock that will open for him the doorway to the light of his own inner god. To place reliance solely on head learning, the eye doctrine, is to gain but little of permanent worth. It is the heart doctrine that should claim our allegiance, the heart wisdom that makes the impress on the soul.

Significantly, G. de Purucker, as early as 1935, publicly expressed the hope, if he could find "the time and strength so to do, to publish another volume or two containing Theosophical teaching" which up to then had been privately circulated. What had formerly been held as esoteric, he believed would even then be understood in greater measure, due to the "more awakened intelligence of modern men," as well as to the increased "receptivity to new ideas [which] has created an entirely different and indeed fallow field of consciousness" (The Esoteric Tradition, p. x). While he himself was unable to accomplish this, one of these projected works, The Dialogues of G. de Purucker, representing the meetings of the Katherine Tingley Memorial Group, was issued in 1948 by Arthur L. Conger. Now with the publication of Fountain-Source of Occultism, both of these hoped-for volumes of hitherto esoteric material are available for students everywhere.

It is our deep regret that James A. Long, leader of the Theosophical Society from 1951 to 1971, did not live to see this work in finished form. But the guidelines he laid down in 1966 for the editing and preparation of the manuscript have been faithfully followed: to preserve the integrity of the teaching, both in atmosphere and content; to eliminate unnecessary repetitions; delete any purely organizational matters relating to the Theosophical Society or Esoteric Section; anglicize the spelling of those Sanskrit and other foreign terms now in current usage, such as karma, mahatma, etc.; and, where advisable, lift the presentation out of its private esoteric setting into a form suitable to public print. In brief, to condense and distill from the twelve booklets the marvelous treasury of wisdom contained therein so that the world may benefit.

As Mr. Long conceived Dr. de Purucker's intent:

All of this doctrinal esotericism is for one purpose, and one purpose only -- not merely to satisfy the intellect of the reader, but to lay the groundwork for the development of the compassionate side of our nature in order that we may better serve our fellow men.

That is the basic value of the book: to see beyond the spacial and cosmic presentation to the wellspring of compassion flowing from the heart of cosmos, to the galaxy, the solar system, our globe earth, to man. It is all a manifestation of a compassion beyond our ken.

Mention must here be made of the tireless and painstaking efforts of every member of the editorial and printing staff: Kirby Van Mater, archivist; John P. Van Mater, who checked the manuscript prior to typesetting and prepared the Index; to Dorothy LeGros and Eloise Hart for the several typings required; to Madeline Clark, Manuel Oderberg, Ingrid Van Mater, Elsa-Brita Titchenell, Sarah B. Van Mater, and Lawrence Merkel, for the arduous task of proofreading; and not least, to the editorial committee, A. Studley Hart, the late Willy Ph. Felthuis, and Ida Postma, all of whom worked with me long and diligently to make this book a reality.

On this Centenary of Gottfried de Purucker's birth, we gratefully acknowledge our spiritual indebtedness to one who kindled anew the fires of aspiration, believing that Fountain-Source of Occultism has power to inspire every earnest seeker for ages to come.

The Venture-Starships Tri-Phase Merkaba

Many religious traditions give great importance to spiritual fire. It appears in Christianity as the baptism by fire, in the Merkabah visions of Jewish mysticism and in the temple fires of Zoroastrianism.

Spiritual fire is not just symbolic. It is a reality that you can experience in your own life. One way to do this is by drawing down the violet light through spoken prayer. As you focus the light into a specific problem, it acts as a flame.

You can compare this process to sunlight passing through a magnifying glass causing a piece of paper beneath it to burst into flame. We invite you to experiment with the violet flame for yourself by giving the meditation and violet flame exercises on this site. They are designed to help you direct the powerful energy of God�s fire to "burn up" all that stands in the way of your spiritual progress and the healing of the earth.

Using the meditation and exercises, you can draw the violet flame through your body, mind and soul and begin to feel lighter and lighter. You can visualize negative energy that is lodged in the spaces between the electrons of your body being loosened by the high-vibrating energy of the violet flame and being consumed by it. As the electrons are freed of negative substance,they begin to whirl faster. Their vibration gets higher and higher, and so does yours.

s your vibration accelerates, you may become more attuned to the vibration of divine love and to the voice of God speaking in your heart. You may begin to feel a renewed sense of freedom as the violet flame restores vitality and joy, bringing you into harmony with your higher Self. And as you free yourself, you will be freer to help your loved ones, your community and the world.
