Chapter OneHalls of Training

For Curious Kids age 6 through 8

This book consists of special insights for modern kids being brought into a very fast changing world. Past teachings are simply not keeping up with the high evolutionary standing of today's children. They need advanced teachings to open themselves up to contacting their inner being at an earlier age than we adults did. This is necessary for their survival in today's world.

IntroductionThe Chrysalis Teachings are Based on our Four-Part BrainThere is a well defined path to open the channel that needs begun as a child and carried through all education. Actually, there is a double growth process, the exoteric, outer, physical expression and the esoteric, inner, spiritual expression. Because of this double growth track, we have the brain separated into the left and the right sides. The left deals with physical growth, our exoteric (outer) life and the right side deals with our spiritual growth, our esoteric (inner) life. The human brain is not only divided into the right side and the left side, it is actually divided into four parts.

Our Four-Part Brain

There is a lower left side, a lower right, an upper left and an upper right. Each of these divisions has three levels, with each level having twelve stages. The lower left division, sections 1-2-3 deals with our physical bodies; the lower right, 4-5-6, our emotional bodies; the upper left, 7-8-9, our mental bodies; and the upper right, 10-11-12, our spiritual bodies. This gives us twelve levels or dimensions of the human mind.

This is the structure of the brain and the path of progress should be from lower left brain to lower right brain, then upper left and upper right, with the apex of the mind where your inner being will be located. The progress must be made by all in the same manner, left to right on the lower and left to right on the higher. The left deals with physical body functions, the right with the creative process.

Nutritional Guidelines for Children


Nutritional Guidelines7

HoneyHoney should be one of the foods introduced to a babe along with his milk and porridge as he is weaned from the breast.

Maple SyrupA child should never be given any other sweetener until the age of six or seven when their body would be able to handle small amounts of pure maple syrup. There is much goodness in pure maple syrup in the form of minerals that will enhance the opening of brain cells. There should never be any processed sweeteners such as sugars given. These are products that have been through the processing stage before being eaten,

whereas honey and pure maple syrup are not and will do their processing in the body. This perhaps would be one particular guideline that would serve well all the way from birth onward is anything already processed is on the way of moving back to the kingdom behind. Anything not processed is moving forward to the next kingdom and is, therefore, the type of food that should be ingested. The more processing done the more dead food that is being ingested.

MilkThe presence of honey along with pure milk from the cow will balance out in the body. The honey will have the effect of cleansing the cholesterol from the veins. This is not recognized at the present

8

time, but honey could do much to help those whose veins are clogged. The two, milk and honey, complement each other and perhaps others allergic to milk could handle this source of calcium if they would but mix a little honey in it. There is basis in fact of the saying “the land of milk and honey.” This was known up until the production of white sugar which actually acts as a poison to the human body.

FishAlso on the list of foods for a babe would be fish in some form. There are no baby foods today in the commercialized market that have fish in them in any form. There is much in fish to benefit the opening of thechannel in children. If not fish flesh, a little fish oil would serve, but the actual flesh is better than just fish oil as the fish

flesh itself serves as a blotter for the oil. The fish flesh will absorb what oil the human body does not and will pass through the body easier than if just fish oil were taken. So this babe of ours is getting milk, honey and fish. Not a very appealing combination to adults, perhaps, but these wee babes have never tasted a McDonald’s or a taco or pizza have they?

Licorice The next consideration would be licorice. This also has many minerals that will pair up or combine with the other foods the babe is eating, to allow full benefit of vitamins and minerals to be absorbed by the body. It also coats the lower intestines with a soothing coating to ease the passage of bulk from the body. The

9

digestive system is the true seat of spiritual power and is well designed and could be an easily functioning machine if thoroughly understood.

Chakras for Children


The Seven Chakras11

Chakras are similar to pre-set dials on appliances such as a toaster, TV, washing machine or dryer. They are the organs of your spiritual body and are related to the organs of your physical body – they actually surround the physical body. The physical organs of the body themselves, the actual flesh, blood and bones are the means of passing physical genes from parents to

children.

The chakras, being the organs of the spiritual body, help in the passing of divine genes which is a matter of thought or mind. Before you are born and enter the body you are in, you choose which of the chakras you will use the most.

Let's compare the chakras to an actual appliance like say a toaster oven instead of a toaster. In fact the microwave oven may be an even better comparison. Children are probably more familiar with it than the

12

toaster oven. We'll pretend that our microwave oven has seven settings.

1. Thaw - The first setting will be to thaw frozen packages of meat or vegetables. This would relate to their own bodies as being the root chakra and when this chakra is understood the child can tap into the idea of thawing food as relating to their body by thawing or softening the will to survive in a rough school situation. By thawing, we mean softening up hard strict rules that may have been given to them by parents and teachers. These hard rules make it difficult for the child to be open to any other children's ideas. These hard, strict rules also make it difficult for them to resist a dare that would lead to playground bullying. If they can compare their body and its first chakra to the same thing the first settings on the microwave oven does – make things usable that have been set in concrete (frozen food) - then this first setting will have served its purpose.

2. 50% Power - The second dial on the microwave oven settings is one that gently warms the food up. It is used to insure that the purpose of the food (which is to be eaten) is carried through. If it is heated up too fast it will destroy the nutrients in the food. At the same time it has to be heated enough to make it edible. The second

chakra on the human is to insure that the human race is carried on – that it is able to continue. This chakra also controls the discarding of left-over food products that had served their

13

purpose of giving nutrients to the human body and can now be discarded through the bladder and bowels

3. Time/Start - The third setting on our oven we'll say is for entertaining your friends by making snacks for an afterschool get-together – perhaps mac and cheese or something along those lines. This relates to the human body as the third chakra which allows the child to be friends with other children and want to communicate with them and keep the friendship going on an even keel.

4. Reheat - The fourth setting on the oven is the one that is used the most by most families. It is used to reheat food that had been previously cooked. In this way the leftover food from 1 or 2 nights before can be reused and made a delicious part of a new meal. Reheating transforms the older food into something

still delicious to eat by restoring it to its previous form the night before. This relates to the human body as the fourth chakra being the transformer between the lower chakras that have to do with the physical body and the higher chakras (or dials on the oven)

14

that have to do with extra benefits we gain by tapping into higher thinking as far as our dealings with other people.

5. TV Dinners - For instance the fifth dial on the microwave oven is for warming up TV dinners – individual dinners for each person. This is like the fifth chakra on the body. It is for voicing our thoughts to other people – to each individual friend. Without being able to do this, much is lost in the way of communicating with other people.

6. Popcorn - The sixth dial is for odd food that is not used very often. One thing would be pop-corn. Another would be to melt butter or oleo to use it in a recipe. The way this relates to the sixth chakra is that it is not used very often and should only be used when necessary to understand someone who is difficult or

who is causing trouble (such as cold hard butter not blending into a recipe) and you want to try to understand them more.

7. Roast - The seventh dial is a dial that will cook a large roast in a very short period of time. This dial has to have stability and be even in its temperature control. On the

15

human this seventh chakra is one that connects you to all others and to your creator.

Comparisons of Good and Bad Attitudes


17


“Kindness” compared to a “Bell”A bell can come in many different sizes and shapes and colors. It can have many different sounds. To be a bell it has to be heard and felt. To be activated it must come from something inside. It can be set in motion from a distance by pulling on a rope or close up by holding it in your hand. A bell can also be set in motion by wearing it somewhere on your body so that when you move and walk, you do so with the bell always in motion. You can

feel the vibrations of the bells as they stir the ethers around them with their sound waves. Some bells are large and give out a deep loud gong and others are small and delicate and issue forth a soft tinkle, but all are heard and felt and are beautiful in their own way.

“Freedom” compared to a “Train and Track”

18

A track is built through lots of hard work. It’s built over high mountains, cold desolate prairies, hot dry deserts, etc. It isusually a straight narrow track with a good roadbed. The train on this track has to be activated by an engine. This engine can be just big enough to carry one car or it can be powerful enough to carry many cars. There is a network of train tracks through most of the world.

“Truth” compared to a “Book”

A book of truth is bound in durable covering to protect it. It has many pages full of truth to be read and studied by all people. The best way found so far to get spiritual teachings to the masses is through the use of books. The truths can be translated into many different languages.

“Greed” compared to a “Toad”

A toad jumps all over sticking his tongue out and catching anything that comes near him. It is ugly. It is a carryover from the days of the cave man when this attitude was necessary to survive. Both greed and selfishness were necessary for

19

survival then, but not now because we have evolved past this stage. Anyone still employing these attitudes is stopping their evolution. They’re stuck in cave man days, and need to be enlightened. But first they have to be made to admit these are their attitudes before they will attempt to change them.

“Fear” compared to a “Hippopotamus”

Fear is like seeing a huge hippopotamus with ferocious looking teeth coming towards us. When it gets to us it will not harm us but we have built up in mind that all big things and unknown things are to be feared.

“Wisdom” compared to a “Chicken on Nest of Eggs”

A chicken sitting on a nest of eggs is wise enough to know how long it takes for chicks to hatch. It knows this instinctively. The chicken also knows the eggs must be kept warm while hatching and that she must have patience waiting.

20

“Unselfish Love” compared to “Helpless Little Baby”

A good definition of unselfish love would be to love everyone as you would a helpless little baby. You don’t expect or demand anything from them. You just love them because they are an expression of the Creator’s love, the miracle of life. We take care of their needs as best we can and try to help them grow.

21

Individuality Compared toCars in Factory


Individuality Compared to Cars in Factory

23

The beginning of the opening of the channel will allow each child to bring forth the individuality which comes from the divine part of them. Actually, all those with very similar astrological signs at birth will be very similar in personality until this takes place.

But until this does take place, this individuality can be growing and coloring the animal brain personality merely through the expression of the arts. Without this you might as well be stamping out car bodies that are, say, in the month of May, all red with four doors, and in the month of June you go to a blue car with two doors. Stamping out groups and groups and groups, because this is what it amounts to - the similar personalities. Now they are different, don’t get me wrong, but the traits are all there, the similarities are all there.

Picture yourself as though standing in one of our automobile plants. There is a group of red four-doors here, a group of blue two-doors here and a group of green ones over there that have a distinguishing difference. All those

24

groups are standing around and sitting up on a pedestal in the middle of them is a gold Cadillac. This is an analogy of what happens when a child starts to express their individuality. What is needed is the ability of all, the opportunity for all, to be able to express their inner being, which then brings forth this beautiful individual of which there can never be anothercarbon copy – another just exactly like it.

You have heard that everyone’s fingerprints are different. So also is everyone’s individuality, but not their personalities; there are similar personalities.

Personality is made up of that ugly monster ego.

25

Individuality is made up of the beautiful inner being.

To express individuality takes great self-esteem and self-confidence. To express the personality takes neither. All it takes is a physical body.

Spiritual Analogies

Reincarnation Compared to Farmer’s Crops

Seeds are planted causing them to grow but if they aren’t properly cared for, they die. The weeds choke them out. The next springtime the farmer plants again and knows what not to do this time. They grow better, but there are still lessons to be learned to improve the crop each spring. In winter, (between incarnations) the

farmer ponders over what went wrong the previous time he planted. He figures out a way to keep it from happening the next time so crops will grow better. If a crop, say for instance corn, is planted in the same field where it was diseased the previous year, then it will almost certainly get the same disease again. The same is true of humans. If they reenter earth in the same locality as before, the energy of their thoughts and attitudes are in the ground and will attract them to the same attitudes they had in previous lives.

Reincarnation Compared to Flowers

24

The flowers that must be replanted each year are less highly evolved than those that come up on their own each spring. This can be compared to humans, who up to level seven come back as different individual personalities until they reach their conglomerate or seedcore at the seventh level. At that point, when they draw back into the black hole (at death)

they will automatically come back from the same seedcore working on group projects. The process is similar to perennials that die in the fall, go back into the black hole (ground), rejuvenate and store in the seed that energy needed to bloom again the next spring – exactly the same as humans.

The Hierarchy Compared to Ant Kingdom

25

The hierarchy can be compared to the ant kingdom. The workers are always busy building. They are very strong. They venture out into the world and then return with food (for thought) or material to improve the inner world.

There are many different kinds or families of ants, but all basically are structured the same way as far as the workings of the kingdom go. All are working towards one goal, unknown to many that they are part of a plan. Some special few know it.

To explain the plan please picture a sandcastle. Every grain of sand is important in the overall finished castle. If one grain becomes dislodged, others follow and one whole corner of the sandcastle can tumble down in a second. It then takes many eons to rebuild because it has been, and must be, built one grain at a time. It is ever being enlarged and perfected and rising higher.

26

Storms sweep in at times and destroy or damage large parts of the castle and the ants (the angels) have to painstakingly start over, always striving for perfection and beauty.

The goal, of course, is one large, all-encompassing, beautiful sandcastle where all ants can live in peace and harmony with one another, under the beautiful blue sky and beside the beautiful blue waters of eternity

Scientific Analogies


28

Scientific AnalogiesAnimals in the future will have elevated positions from now. They will be highly trained and used in schools as teacher aides and playground guides. They will also be used as message and errand runners in certain occupations. Owners and pets will be matched by their musical tones and colors and pets will have exercise programs and medical checkups and R & R homes, even as their owners will have. Their food will be as carefully controlled as that of their owners only necessarily of a different variety.

Animals Compared to TeachersThere is a fine line between feelings of separateness and feelings of self-esteem. This fine line can be explained by using examples from the Animal Kingdom and perhaps these examples will also help adults.

CatsThe cat is a very good example of separateness. He wants nothing to do with most other cats. Now this cat has self-esteem, but he has gone way past the point of balance. He declares a certain area his territory and wants no one else to enter it.

This cat cannot be taught that he should not set himself apart from others. He, more than humans, is a part of all animals, as they all have the same oversoul.

Dogs

29

Dogs, on the other hand, can have feelings of separateness like cats, or can be the opposite, very friendly and loving and wanting to be with other dogs and even cats, who usually want no part of them. Dogs come closer to expressing true brotherhood of man than man himself. They surely could be our teacher in this respect.

ChickenA chicken can teach the motion needed to walk on the moon.

PigA pig can teach the necessity of having digestive juices.

Large CatA large cat (lion, tiger, cougar, puma, panther, etc.) can teach accurate exercise routines for the human vertebrae and spiny, bony structure of the form.

30

CowA cow can teach the necessity of chewing for contentment. There is a definite correlation for those with teeth to need to have the act of chewing to stimulate digestive action.

Chapter TwoHalls of Learning

For Curious Kids age 9 through 11

Most of the lessons are done through the use of analogies. Many of the things seen on TV shows, such as Star Trek, actually came into being because the children watching these Science Fiction shows saw to it when they grew up that the futuristic things were invented.

IntroductionThe Difference between Instinct & Intuition

Your instinct is a natural, inborn quality that you have; you don’t have to sharpen it. It was a gift and it’s this instinct that needs to be transmuted into intuition. A child’s intuition is quite strong. Adults don’t realize this and try to dominate their children’s lives with their own interpretations and opinions, when quite often they should let the child express his feelings. The least that should be done is to let him express himself and include his ideas for consideration as part of the decision making process.

The intuition is that part of one that is a composite of all acquired knowledge from the beginning of time. The more incarnations one has had, the stronger the intuition. It is that part of us that gives a little shiver of acknowledgment when something that is said or read rings true for us. The intuition is the seed core in each of us that is carried over from one lifetime to another. It is a reservoir of knowledge that grows steadily larger with each experience. It is not the same as instinct. Instinct is a function of our lower nature and intuition is of the higher nature. Becoming intuitive is a forerunner of more in-depth channeling.

Comparisons ofGood and Bad Attitudes



1. "Selfishness" Compared To "A Hand in a Glove" That hand wants to be warm and comfortable itself, but doesn’t really want to touch others with its bare skin. It doesn’t care if the other hand is warm or not. It can’t (because of the shape of the hands) and won’t share its glove with the other one. It can touch things that would be too hot or cold for the other hand and not be affected. In other words, it has

insulated itself from any contact with anything that could injure it or even make it uncomfortable, (hurt its feelings). But in the end that hand – having done the same things the ungloved hand has done – is not going to learn the difference between right and wrong, because it hasn’t learned to discriminate between good and bad. It will go through life and not gain anything.

2. “Stubbornness” compared to “Concrete”

Stubbornness is pride that has become hardened as though in concrete. It needs a terrific blow to shatter it. It is ingrained very firmly in the personality, so if it is still present it shows that this person is still expressing through his personality.

3. “Indifference” compared to “Humming Birds”

38

Humming birds hover and watch but do not help. They care only if they eat and will jealously guard their own source of food. They are not loyal to one household. If the feeder isn’t kept filled, they will leave and make their home elsewhere. They have a sharp beak that hurts. They flit about and they migrate with the different seasons. They make loud noises and can’t be pinned down.

4. “Wrong Perception of Idea” compared to “Grapefruit”

Most of us have a preconceived idea that the grapefruit will be sour and bitter.

5. “Wrong Application of Idea” compared to “Cake Pans”

39

If cake pans are used to cook steak in, or for anything other than what they were made for, they are not being put to the right use and will probably be ruined.

6. “Loneliness” compared to a “Ship in a Bottle”

A ship in a bottle is isolated. It’s out of its natural habitat. It’s imprisoned in something which has to be shattered to gain release. It usually takes a hard blow to break the bottle and has to be done carefully to keep from damaging the vessel inside the bottle. It took a long time to develop. In other words, loneliness has been with the vessel for long while. It needs more air to breath and more contact with the outside world.

In fact, it is leading a useless life in the bottle, helping no one. It certainly can’t grow any bigger and can’t expand its horizons until the bottle is broken.

Spiritual Analogies

The Five D’s

Discipline, Discernment, Discrimination, Discretion, Detachment

42

Discipline needs to be applied to make sure you are using discrimination, discernment and discretion. Leading a disciplined life is not easy, but consider the alternative of having no direction at all to the path you are on.

Discernment means to be acutely aware, alert to catch undertones in conversations and to sense unspoken communication, non-verbal talk. Mental telepathy and intuition honed to their finest edge would be a good way to put it. It is easier to see when others are not being discerning and discreet than to see it in yourself, so be alert and sensitive in your speech and actions. Think more about what is happening.

Discrimination means to pick and choose only that which is the best. Separate the wheat from the chaff. This does not mean that you should discriminate against others because of race, color, sex or age, but discriminate in the attitudes and state of evolvement of others and in their sincerity.

43

Discretion also means to use good judgment in your everyday contact with other people. Learn to determine, if possible, where they are standing on the path. The use of your intuition is highly recommended also. Think before you speak. Don’t be too quick to jump to conclusions. Let the other person have his say and listen to what he is saying. You are being told something, but you are going to have to listen more closely to what is being said. To be discreet takes diplomacy and wisdom.

Detachment is basically the same thing as impersonality only on a wider viewpoint. Impersonality applies to individual incarnations on a personal day to day basis. Detachment would apply to the overall path of the whole incarnation.

44

The following poem, "The Boy and His Dog," is an analogy of the animal-based brain (the dog) and the incarnating spirit or "old soul" (the boy).

The Boy and His DogA dog played with a little toy truckThe boy watched the two.As the dog learned to make it goThe boy learned something new.

He learned that animals like to play That they enjoy

life too And with that the boy and his dog Went on their way to school.

The boy had to learn to read and write The dog had mostly to wait The lessons got harder for the boy Meanwhile the dog learned to hate.

The dog learned to hate the school That kept the boy from him He wanted to destroy the place So he and the boy could swim.

The boy saw he had to teach his dog That it needed lessons too He decided that with his help The dog could also go to school.

The dog learned to obey the boy The boy to respect the dog. As school continued for both of them

45

How the boy enjoyed his dog.

He saw they both were here for a purpose And that was to learn and grow If all could do that together Then lives in harmony would flow.

The Oversoul Compared to a Shattered Piece of Glass

Picture the oversoul as a piece of glass that has shattered. Two little pieces can be found that fit together (twin souls), but they still are a shattered fragment. Even when two and two and two and two (a seedcore group), join together they

are still a fragment of the whole, and it usually is one and one and one and one that join together (individual persons). They also make a fragment, but not a square piece. It has rough edges that won’t fit back into the whole until the right piece (twin) is found. This is the process that must take place before the piece of glass can be glued back together into one whole piece and then be

moved into another room of the house that’s being built.There are twelve rooms in this house and this window must progress from room to room. In some rooms it makes the move without incident, but in others it shatters upon arrival and must be pieced back together again before

46

moving on. Each room is a classroom and each piece of glass learns through many lessons and much thought what it needs to learn. At the same time it also needs to interact with the other pieces of glass, its brothers and sisters, if you will, that make up the rest of the sheet of glass. Getting to know this group is a start to knowing all the shattered pieces of glass. These fragments do have to be glued back together in the end and eventually will be. In reality all pieces of the puzzle will eventually fit together. This is the lesson plan. The sharp edges of each need to be buffed off, smoothed up, so that they don’t rub against another piece the wrong way and cause more shattering. If all edges get smoothed up, they will fit much better into the whole.

The Seedcore Compared to a TreeThe seedcore is like the holder of the family tree. Each spark that split in half came from a certain branch of the fork of lightning that shattered onto the earth plane. Therefore there are family branches on many levels.

Picture a tree. Out of the main trunk there are many fairly good sized branches that all have many smaller branches off of them. The seedcore would be as the very end of a branch off the smaller branches. Each spark that broke off from that particular end of that particular branch is from the same seedcore. It can follow the line of communication back up that branch and into the main trunk of the tree. It can even follow the main trunk to other branches and connect with the experiences learned by these seedcores.

47

Prejudice Compared To IndiansWhen the white men built the power plant in Glenwood Canyon, Colorado they destroyed a very, very sacred ground, a sacred energy center where the Shoshoni Indians would come and camp and rejuvenate their very spirits. The

energies in this canyon at that time were so high that the Indians were able to contact those on the other side very, very easily. This contact, this communication meant so much spiritually to the Indians. This is something that those of the white man’s race cannot understand – the spirituality that existed in the Indian when he was able to keep this contact open with the other side, with his relatives that had passed over. When he wasn’t able to keep this contact open was when he turned into a savage.If the white men had been able to understand this, perhaps they would have stayed away from the Indian’s sacred ground. They knew it was sacred ground because they had been told at a council of war between the Indian chiefs and the heads of the government that ordered these projects built. In every instance they had been told that they were planning on desecrating a sacred Indian ground. Some of them were burial grounds, but most of them involved these energy centers.

We all know that rushing, tumbling water generates power. What we don’t know, perhaps, is that it generates a power strong enough to lift the spirit of the Indian. It can raise their consciousness high enough to make contact with a different dimension because, remember, they were and still are simple people.

48

These simple people with uncomplicated lives were by far closer to spiritual truths. As they communed with nature and ate simple but wholesome foods, their bodies were much more in tune, much more energized. They had, all of them, what would be called today “light bodies.” They were not encased in fat cells, this cellulite that humanity has padded themselves with through the years. With this light body and with the power

generated by the rushing waters, these Indians were able to live on both sides of the curtain, or the veil if you want to call it that. This made them very calm and reassured; relaxed, pleasant, easy to get along with, in comparison to the savagery that they displayed to white men when they were not able to go to their energy center. Yes, the white man did a great disservice to the Indians. Incidentally this is a form of the worst kind of prejudice – that of keeping one human being, or a tribe of Indians, or any of humanity from their spiritual centers.

Scientific AnalogiesSpace Travel Compared to a Field of Rice

The universe is alive with musical vibration.

For instance, in the universe there are time tubes that run through it which, when found, would make space travel much easier and faster. The vibratory rate within these time tubes is totally different than the vibratory rate outside the tubes. Inside the tubes the rate is tightened up. This is not the same as speeded up. There is a big difference. To speed up the

51

vibratory rate makes a shimmer effect. To tighten the vibratory rate means to pull it together and make it sharper.

Speeding up the vibratory rate diffuses it.

Tightening the vibratory rate sharpens it.

It is the same identical vibratory rate that is outside the tubes but is tightened, which reduces the distance. This is quite difficult to describe. The closest thing that can be given as an analogy is to picture a field of cooked rice as the outside of the tube and a field of uncooked rice as inside the tube.

Cooked Rice Uncooked Rice

The field of cooked rice spreads out over a much more vast area with the same amount of rice that would make up the inside of the tube. Since the original measurement of the rice was

identical, the same amount of vibratory rate is used in both areas only we could travel through it much faster as uncooked rice.

52

These tubes are areas or tunnels or sacs in which the vibratory rate has not been able to spread out in the vastness of space. They are original tunnels of the original vibratory rate at the moment of the big bang, the original nuclear explosion. Therefore, they are pure and clean and are welded together in a frozen stream of time. These tunnels can never be gotten rid of.

The tunnels are as though you took a hard surface and glued the uncooked rice to it. Picture a field with a path of uncooked rice through the middle of it. Say it took a pickup truck load of uncooked rice glued in a single layer to make a path across this

field a couple of feet wide. The same pickup truck load of rice, the same amount, is cooked and piled beside the path which has high walls so it cannot have any uncooked rice spread into it.

The cooked rice begins to spread out on both sides of the path and eventually covers an area a hundred times larger than the path through the middle. If we were traveling and our travel was based on grains of rice

instead of miles you can easily see how much quicker we would get to our destination by taking the path through the middle. Each grain of rice, each mile of space, expands to approximately one hundred times the original.

The Health of the Human Body Compared to a Computer Set Up

Nuclear fission is merely a chain reaction on a small scale. Reincarnation is a chain reaction on a man-size scale. The changing universe is but the same chain reaction on a large scale. It is all a repeated pattern. When the exact

53

repeated pattern is disturbed, no matter in which size scale, then there is trouble. The same as with a computer, disk drive, monitor and printer, so is it with the chain of command in nuclear fission. If one link is out of place there is trouble.This compares also with the health of a human body. The mental, emotional, physical and spiritual bodies can be compared exactly to the computer set-up: the operator of the set-up is you. Your messages to the computer are, in turn, given to the disk drive for storage, (your seedcore) and can be brought back to your present reality at any time. They also can be expressed in a reflected manner (monitor) and in a concrete manifestation (printer.) Any time wrong input occurs, it breaks the chain reaction between the integrated circuits and the operator of the system This then brings trouble. In some of these examples the trouble is in the form of inaction. In some cases it is in the form of illness and in some it is in the form ofexplosion. Now if all these “trouble” expressions are drawn together into one explanation, you will have the causes of cancer explained. Then retrace all the steps of input to output and you will find the answer to prevention, not cure. The cure is an entirely different matter. Once the chain reaction has started it is very difficult to stop. There must be a planned blockage put into the path of the chain reaction, in front of it, ahead of it – far enough ahead of it that the chain reaction has time to sense that there is some trouble ahead that will block it and it begins to slow down (remission) as it approaches this blockage. It would be more effective if it did not slow down as the impact at fast speed would shatter and demolish. Slowing it (remission) only serves to keep it intact and healthy although blocked as it does not hit the blockage and shatter.

The Sixth Chakra, (The Third Eye) Compared to the Antennae on an Insect

The third eye does have a bearing on the external vision, although this is not generally known. The internal vision takes strain off of the physical eyesight. It is as antennae work on an insect. It reaches out in front of the physical being and “senses” the environment and atmosphere along with the other people around one and also the obstacles and

dangers present. It then feeds this knowledge into the brain which in turn alerts the physical eyes.

Raising the Energy Compared to a ShadowRaising the energy vibrations of anything transforms it into good or positive vibrations. Care must be taken that this does not happen too fast in any instance or with anything, as too fast a rise in vibratory rate could be destructive. It must be a slow, gradual, steadily controlled increase with platforms of no movement spaced at intervals to allow

for the “catching up” of the aura. Consider it as a shadow that gets longer as the day continues. As the sun moves across the sky the shadow lengthens. Then as night falls there is a pause in the movement, the shadow has a chance to catch up and in the morning the shadow is ahead of the

55

form. The same thing happens with a human. If he progress rapidly, the aura lags behind. Then he must have a pause or rest to “tread water” (night) to allow the aura to catch up and even pass him by to then be ahead of him and help him catch up. Then his evolvement surges forward ahead of the aura, and then another pause is needed. This is the way all education should take place on the earth plane. This should be studied and worked into the education system of our schools. At the very least it should be explained to those on the spiritual path. These pauses or treading of water or nighttime rest are very necessary for a balanced rise in vibrations. Most people do not want to take the time for these pauses and cause too rapid a rise in their vibratory rate which is self-defeating.

Energy Flow in Body Compared to a TrainA healer must become so sensitive to the feel of the vibration of the colors of the different chakras, for instance red, that they can trace the flow of the energy from this chakra with their fingertips as it makes its circular course through the body. The energy must flow from the chakra through its previously mapped out route and back to the chakra. On its journey it not only nourishes others on its way, but receives nourishment itself from others. If there is an illness or point of disease in the body, this journey is interrupted and the energy doesn’t flow, nourished, back to the chakra. It drains or seeps back the same route it started out on.

Compare it to a train that leaves the station to complete a circular route into a big city and back again to the station it left from. Picture this train as perhaps traveling half of its route and finding a bridge out. It cannot go forward and cannot turn around. The only thing it can do is coast back to the station and try the

56

trip again the next day, hoping the bridge is repaired. It will try this trip every day to see if the bridge is repaired and in the process be putting excessive wear and tear on something that wasn’t built to operate in reverse, only in forward gear. Therefore, the train itself will wear out much sooner than it should, because of the broken bridge.

Childhood Tales of Jesus


58

Part 1-Episodes from the Early Life of JesusTHE CARPENTER SHOP

Jesus loved the carpenter shop. As a babe, he would sit on the floor and play with the wood shavings. Once he got a large splinter in his rear and it became infected. He had to lie down instead of sit for quite a while, but he didn’t fuss about it. He would lie and let his eyes follow Mary around the room doing her chores.

As soon as he was old enough, Joseph would let him try to make little things with scraps of wood. Jesus, unlike most children, was very interested in the different kinds of wood used and in the beauty of the grain of each different kind. His favorite was myrtle, which in that time period and location was a large plentiful tree. He used the scraps of wood in his teaching of his brothers and sisters. He would use them in many ways, such as teaching the little ones how to add and subtract. He used them with the older ones to show them the building of the universe as he saw it at that age. He also would use them as disciplinary measures and awards for good behavior. They were highly prized by the children of that time period as toys. When the children would start squabbling and fighting, Jesus would act as an arbitrator and diplomatically try to settle the differences. He would keep especially pretty and smooth pieces of wood to give to any child that had done some deed to earn them.

When the boys were raking the shavings up around the carpenter shop, twigs and leaves and small stones kept getting mixed up with the shavings. They wanted to keep the

59

shavings clean as there were many uses for them around the home. One was filling for pillows; another was packing to take things to market, even taking the shavings themselves to the market. This they did when enough had accumulated but they had to be clean, so the boys had to painstakingly separate the foreign matter out of the shavings. They realized their job would be much easier if they could catch the shavings before they were contaminated by foreign material. They decided that one of them would always be present when work was being done in the shop and therefore the shavings never did get soiled after that decision.

HIS LOVE OF NATURE

In the spring of the year, Jesus would pick the first flowers excitedly and bring them to Mary, much as young children today pick wildflowers and bring them to their mother or father. He would thrill over each flower’s particular beauty and color and remember it so he could talk about it later to the other children. He would talk about how perfect each petal was. He compared the petals to his brothers and sisters and the center to his Creator. The stems and leaves and roots he compared to the rest of his family. Then he would apply the same principle to humanity on a much larger plane of thought. He would also do this with the trees, using the different seasons to compare with life on earth.

Birds were another favorite of his, probably his biggest favorite as far as demonstrating and talking about the

freedom of the life of the spirit. He would use their nests and the eggs and the mother and father birds

feeding the little ones and encouraging them to try their wings. One day he found a wee baby bird that had fallen from its nest and took it home, much like a child today would do. He intended to put it into a cage and keep it and smother it with love. He soon realized he couldn’t do this after a few hours of watching it.

60

This was a demonstration he used many times after that in his teaching.

These demonstrations of his made the other children start bringing wounded animals to him and his first healings were done on these animals. The children would look on in wonder as their pet dog or cat would be healed instantly. They would tell their parents, but were never believed.

When the sun would go down in the evening, Jesus even as a child would stop what he was doing and watch the sunset. It was always to be a time for reflection and meditation for him. He would

think over the day’s events in his mind and ponder over what he could have done that would have been better. He would, as an older lad in his teens, go outdoors at night before retiring and gaze at the moon and stars and talk to his heavenly Father. This

was something he never neglected to do.Jesus was walking along a dusty lane in his bare feet one day

with a fishing pole over his shoulder and his dog beside him. They came to a puddle on the side of the road and sat down to dig out some earthworms. Several more boys came upon them and stopped to help him. As they pulled the worms out of the slime, Jesus couldn’t help but compare this with what he knew humanity needed – pulled out of the slime, but not to meet the same fate the fishing worms would have. He knew humanity needed to have a goal to want to stay out of the slime. He also knew that those pulling them out of the slime had to be a personification of that goal – in other words set an example. He suddenly realized that this was what his life must be. He was only seven at the time but had this terrific insight into his purpose even then. The same is true today. Servers must be role models for those less fortunate.

61

An example of a parable Jesus used as an eight year old teaching neighborhood children is: “When the tide comes in on the ocean, the fish follow it in and when it goes out, they go with it. These fish are instinctively wiser than human beings as they don’t go against nature, they flow with it.

One day a turtle was crossing the road at his own slow pace and the boys were urging it on with a stick, poking it here, prodding it there. But nothing they did had any effect on the turtle. The boys

wanted to use it in an exhibition race they had planned, to show their friends the difference

between turtles – how some, even though older, could move faster than others. But this particular turtle

would not hurry. It was as though it deliberately wanted to frustrate the boys, or so it seemed to them. When it got almost across the road, it changed directions – almost an about face because a little field mouse was sitting in the path and it startled the turtle so he lost his sense of direction. The boys were so disappointed they just sat and watched and didn’t try again to use that turtle because of his stubbornness.

There was a field of horses with their new born offspring grazing in a beautiful green meadow sprinkled with daisies. A small stream was running through the middle of the field which was all fenced in. On the other side of the fence was one lone horse who stood and watched the others inside the fence wishing it was inside with them. But this one horse had the whole countryside to roam in and all the grass and water it could ever possibly use while those inside the fence would necessarily be limited because of their number, as to how much they would have. As long as there was any grass to eat and water to drink these horses would share them with each other and never even think about getting outside the fence to have more. The lone

62

horse outside the fence one day jumped over it and joined those inside. It felt safe and secure even though it did not have as much to eat or drink. Several times it decided to jump back over the fence to life on the outside, but remembered the feelings of loneliness and never did jump back out even though its mate and offspring were out there. Even a horse cannot live with just grass and water. They need to have a feeling of belonging also.

HIS HOME LIFE

The fences in the area surrounding Jesus’ home were made of brambles twisted and knotted together. They were needed to keep livestock from straying and also helped keep the younger children in the family from wandering too far. One day when Jesus was watching the children while Joseph and Mary were at the marketplace, one of the little ones became missing. Jesus and the others searched everywhere inside the fences for the missing one. Finally one of the dogs discovered a hole in the bramble fence and began barking and trying to get through. Jesus went out by the gate and found the little one a goodly ways down the road. He was lost and didn’t know how to get back inside the fence. He was also all scratched up and bleeding. Jesus took the little one in his arms and wiped away the blood and tears and carried him back inside the fence. Then he went to see what he could do to repair the fence and tried to figure out what had caused the hole in it to start with. While repairing it he discovered bits of cloth caught on the brambles and realized that the hole had been started from the outside and was being worked inwardly. This surprised him and he realized then that an outsider was trying to get in to do some mischief. What he didn’t know was why. From then on they all watched the small children much more closely and watched the fence looking for more evidence of it being tampered with. In this way they guarded against harm to the family from outsiders.

63

Jesus kept chickens in a pen at the rear of their dwelling. This pen had a roof of braided rattan. They sold eggs and occasionally sold off some hens for eating purposes. Jesus was fascinated with the eggs that were hatching. He used to pester the hens to move off the nest so he could check the progress of the egg. The hens would fight him and peck at his hand because they were wise enough to

know that when an egg was in the incubation period, it shouldn’t be disturbed. The temperature should not be allowed to fluctuate up and down. They also knew

when the shell started opening up that this was the most crucial time of the whole process. Before and after

were important, but during the cracking open of the shell, anything could happen if it was unattended. Foreign objects could get in, such as insects or a cold wind which would quickly penetrate to the chick inside. The hens would accommodate Jesus and move off the nest to let him see, up until the first hairline crack in the shell. Then they stubbornly refused to budge until the whole process was complete and the chick emerged strong enough to fend for himself. Once he picked a hen up off the nest when she wouldn’t move and found a chick partially out of the shell. The chick did not survive as the process of nature was interrupted and the cold air was more than the chick could take at that crucial moment.

Ten times a day it seemed, Mary would have Jesus check the hen house when chicks were expected to hatch. When he found a newly hatched chick he was to bring it in the house to an incubator made of blocks of wood from the carpenter shop and heated with a candle. Sometimes his trip to the hen house was useless and he’d come back disappointed and the younger children would be disappointed also. When he did have one to bring in all the children gathered around and welcomed the new chick. Sometimes he’d have as many as three or four chicks to bring in. The chicks had a much better chance of surviving inside the warm cave of the incubator than out in the unprotected hen house where many

64

dangers could harm them. The older chickens did not like their chicks being taken and set up a furor. Jesus learned to sneak them out when the hen was not watching only to save her the pain. The hen could not know the chicks were much safer away from her than with her as this goes against nature and the instincts natural to all. How can one go against his instinct and feel that it is better for him? Even a chicken knows it is not and can’t be made to realize and understand that it really is.

There was a certain kind of sweet that Jesus dearly loved. It is similar to our taffy today. As a special treat at rare times, he was allowed to make it for himself and the younger brothers and sisters. One time while pulling it after cooking, he realized that it hadn’t been properly

cooked because it was sticking to everyone’s hands. They had a big mess. They were all more or less stuck to each other with sticky strands of candy. Some of the little ones started crying. When Mary and Joseph entered the room, Jesus turned this episode into a sermon saying he was demonstrating what happens to people when they aren’t prepared properly for a certain task. If they try to do something before the correct time, it will be a disaster. He had a twinkle in his eyes and before it was over, he had the whole family laughing very hard. But he again had taken an ordinary everyday incident and turned it around and received a good valuable lesson himself – that timing was very important.

HIS EMOTIONS

Time was, in the early years of Jesus’ life, when he would cry about anyone or anything in pain and discomfort. He actually could feel the pain of others and most of the time didn’t realize what particular person’s pain he was feeling. Joseph and Mary knew what

was going on and also knew that he had to develop protection against this sort of thing or it would wear him down. They explained what was going on to him and put him on alert to figure out whether it was his

65

true emotion or pain and if not, to ignore it. He spent a good many years learning to discern between feelings of his own and those of others, but he eventually was able to do this. Many were the times when Joseph and Mary discussed Jesus’ role in the plan and knew it was going to mean a very sad life for them if they let themselves dwell on what was coming. They made an agreement with each other to strive to remain cheerful, knowing what was ahead of them all. Jesus knew what he had to do and did it with no more assurance of the validity of his visions than those today have. It is an inner knowing of that which must be done.

He was a joy to be around due to his curiosity and wonder about everything. He had a typical boyish streak of devilment in him, but it was not malicious. When he became older, this gradually turned into gentle teasing of those close to him, always done with love.

Mary and Joseph went several times each week to the shopping stalls to purchase food and other necessary items and also to sell goods and items made in the carpenter shop. They would also sell the wood shavings that Jesus would sweep up around the shop. These shavings were used for packing. Jesus normally stayed home with the children, but one particular day he accompanied Joseph as Mary wasn’t feeling too well. The marketplace was very crowded that day and he became separated from Joseph. Being only eight years old at the time, he was frightened, quite frightened. He ran about in circles for a long time, feeling panic. Then, when he could run no longer, he sat down, calmed himself down and faced the facts. He was lost from Joseph but not from the way home. He knew how to get there and knew that this was what he must do. He must go on alone without Joseph, knowing that Joseph also knew the way home and that he knew and trusted Jesus enough to realize that he would also do the logical, sensible thing and return home by himself. There was a rapport between

66

them that made them both instinctively know that the other was going to do the right thing.

Joseph went through agony when he couldn’t locate Jesus and spent many hours searching. He lost sales on his goods and therefore couldn’t purchase the necessary food to take back to Mary; but the well-being of Jesus was much more important and he knew they’d be all right without the items until the next market day. He finally realized that he was never going to find Jesus and took a minute to sit down in the middle of the bustle of the crowd to think about what Jesus would reason out to do. It took only a few minutes for Joseph to know that Jesus would head home; then Joseph got up and did the same thing. They met on the road just a short distance from home and Mary never did know what they had gone through.

Once a wise man journeyed into the area surrounding the Jordan Sea. People traveled from great distances to hear him and question him. Joseph, Mary and Jesus were among those who listened and afterward Jesus approached the man with many

questions. He was about eight at this time. The man could not answer the questions and didn’t want to be embarrassed in front of the crowd, so he pretended to be in a hurry and took the attitude that he didn’t have time for an unimportant eight-year-old asking silly questions. This upset Jesus and shook his

foundation and his belief in himself. It took a lot of explaining by Joseph and Mary to the child on the way home, that the man was a hypocrite and a very weak, not too intelligent, wise man. The wisdom of an eight-year-old threw him into a frenzy and made him run.

HELPING OTHERS

Jesus’ friend Bethan was very upset at his parents. He was a bright ten-year-old and wanted to journey to the town of Nechazzer, a distance of about thirty miles, by himself.

67

His parents would not let him, saying he was too young and they were afraid he would meet with harm. Jesus sat Bethan down on a tree stump along the dusty road as Bethan was leaving his home

and going anyway. Jesus told him, “Suppose you were an old horse out in a field grazing and your offspring wanted to leave the field and go to another field farther away. You, as a young horse, had been to that field and knew it was not a good

field to graze in. You also remembered as a young horse that you got injured trying to go to that field because the road was full of holes. Would you not deny your offspring the trip to that field, because it would be unwise considering the offspring’s age? Wouldn’t you, as an old horse, convince the younger that he could travel to another field at a later date, but to trust you as to how unwise this particular trip would be at this particular time?”

Jesus then left Bethan and went home, not knowing if he had stopped his friend or not. Bethan sat on the stump for quite a long while thinking it over and remembering what Jesus had always said before about animals never going against nature; he got up from the stump and went home.

As a child he would wonder about everything. He had so many questions that he drove his parents into a frenzy trying to keep up with them. He then would gather his brothers and sisters around him and practice teaching them, even though some were too young to understand any of it. He taught about the stars and the sun and the moon. He told them all, including his parents, what life was like on his distant star. He also taught about the rhythm of the universe and the cycles in each life. He told his parents that he had a mission to fulfill. The details weren’t totally clear in his mind at that time, but he sensed it would not be pleasant.

He would gather children around him and, using animals similar to frogs, give the children a demonstration as to right attitudes

68

toward their parents and friends. As much as possible, he used nature to demonstrate a point in all his teachings. There were many times he used a stick to draw a picture on the ground and lay leaves and stones around to depict a scene. One in particular was the astrological teachings of the movements of the planets in which he was thoroughly versed. Those to whom he tried to explain this were fascinated by it, but not able to comprehend its meaning as having

an influence on their lives. He had much compassion for those who wanted to understand the whys and wherefores of their existence. When he couldn’t make them understand something, he would be not only frustrated, but very sad that they couldn’t share in the feeling of joy and freedom that his knowledge brought

him. The same is so true today. Humanity without the light of the truth will never know this feeling of ecstasy that true spiritual understanding can bring.

He had two friends that almost killed each other one day fighting over a whip that one boy had found. The other said it belonged to his father and the fight started with the first boy using the whip on the other. Jesus managed to get hold of the whip and the two fought on without it. Jesus sat calmly watching the fight and cutting the whip into wee small pieces. When he was done, he took each boy by the arm and asked them what they were fighting about. When they said the whip, Jesus said why don’t you share it? They asked how could you do that and Jesus showed them two equal piles of pieces of the whip. He said it would be better to patch up the friendship, seeing as how there was nothing left to fight over anyway. He said wouldn’t it be better to have a good friend and no whip, than to have no friend and no whip either?

The sun was setting one evening with a beautiful display of color. Everyone in the village paused at their tasks to watch the

69

gorgeous sight. There was a group of urchins playing at the end of a dusty road and a fight broke out between them. It seems that one of them had done something that the others couldn’t understand. This one had befriended a poor old gentleman and given him the food that was supposed to be for the entire group to eat for their noonday meal. The other children were so angry they were beating with their fists on this lad. The lad took all the meanness he could stand, and then he stood up as straight and tall as possible and started berating the group. He told them they were self-centered, selfish, mean, nasty and ugly and everything else he could think of. He asked them all to consider what it would be like to be old and have nothing of value and nothing to eat. Would they like to starve to death as this poor old man was doing? He asked them if they didn’t consider themselves lucky that they had someone to take care of them and feed them. With that he left the group and went back to his home where he vowed to do what he could on his own alone to help the poor and wretched people that he could reach through whatever means he could find.

When the other boys in the group heard of his struggles to help the poor and feed the lonely, they came one by one to offer their help in whatever way they could. Eventually the group was back together and instead of being at odds with one another and fighting amongst themselves, they worked together in harmony with each other for the good of all. If this one lad had not had the courage to go against the group and do something on his own, even though they considered it stealing food from them, which it actually was, then the group would not have the effectiveness that it now was showing. And after he had done this deed they all felt was so wrong, he had to have the courage to defend his actions. This is the quality of leadership. This lad was Jesus.

Part 2-Episodes from the Adolescent Years of Jesus

LEARNING LESSONSJesus sat in a clearing in the woods whittling at a piece of wood

from the carpenter shop. He became intrigued with the circles the grain of the wood made and tried to compare them with peoples’ lives. Starting in the center was their birth and spiraling outward in

ever expanding and widening circles until the very last ring before the bark. He compared the bark to their form or body and the wood to their personality and the inner core to their soul. As he was carving the wood to

71

make an image, he started cutting away at the bark, then he cut into the grain of the wood and reshaped that part of it that was necessary to give a different form, but he never cut into the core as this would spoil forever that particular piece of wood as far as making a carving out of it went. As he chipped away at the bark, and peeled it off layer by layer, he started exposing the beautiful grain underneath the ugly roughness of the bark. He then sanded and smoothed the rough edges until the new exposed wood was as smooth as satin. The core was never touched, but was closer to the surface now that the heavy rough outer layer was gone.

He experimented with several pieces of wood all about the same size and tried making different shapes and forms out of them. Some he fashioned in the shape of different animals. Some he made geometric designs out of and some he made into faces, but no matter what the finished shape was, he found that the core – the very first ring of wood – ended up in the exact center of each carving.

Jesus had to watch the younger children a lot and did more to help Mary with her chores than he did to help Joseph, simply because Mary needed to have the help more. Therefore, any time he got to go out to the carpenter shop and help Joseph was very precious to him. While they worked, he and Joseph would talk about life and the spiritual values they believed in, and Jesus would voice his despair over the way most of his friends fought over material things even then.

One day Jesus and his friends saw a tiny coin lying in the dust along the road. They picked it up and didn’t know what its value was

as they had never seen one before. They knew it was pretty to look at, but had no idea of the use it had in society. They took the coin to Mary and Joseph, who tried to explain that it could be used

to purchase items needed to sustain life or items to make life more 72

comfortable but not really necessary. Or, they explained, it could be kept sitting on a shelf gathering dust and growing dim and not benefiting anyone if its value was not realized and the coin was not used. If kept on a shelf, it would eventually be misplaced or lost in the shuffle, and never be seen again. If used to benefit and sustain life, it would be in circulation until it was no longer needed in that form and was melted down and its form changed into a new kind of currency. Then it would start the process of usefulness over again. The boys were very excited by their find and wanted to keep the coin on the shelf to admire, but the thought kept nagging them that it should be used for the good of others. Much thought went into the use they would put it to and therefore it did sit on the shelf for quite a while and started getting dingy looking. They took it from the shelf and polished it to high shiny glow and took it to the marketplace and put it in circulation. They admired the coin and respected its potential worth to do good but they loved it not for selfish purposes. They knew they couldn’t keep it for themselves.

Jesus suffered all the growing pains that humanity goes through. He was spared nothing. The adolescent years were especially painful to him as he was a normal young man and felt the call of nature, but at the same time knew that it was not to be for him. This was a really rough period in his life, but again it cushioned him for strife that was to come later. It also helped in the raising of his consciousness so that he could receive the Christ Consciousness. This was very difficult for people at that time as they were not as evolved as now. It really was a terrific accomplishment. This is why he was revered and worshiped and yes, feared by some of those who met him. He was feared only by those who recognized that he knew of their thoughts and plans. Those with pure motives and thoughts simply loved him and knew they had to follow and be with him. When he comes again, the same will be true!

73

Jesus did indeed enter into debates with those who questioned his answers in the temple. He was very

gentle but stubborn with his answers. The priests could neither get him to change his mind nor trick him into contradicting himself. His beliefs from the time he was

a child never faltered. What a lesson this should be for people! But the difference is that he had the truth to stand on. People today do not. Is it any wonder they falter and fall by the wayside?

ANIMAL WISDOMOur story continues with an episode of Jesus with a herd of

deer. He was in the forest one day and found a wounded buck deer. As he approached the whole herd fled and left the wounded one lying on the forest floor. A stick of wood had pierced through the animal’s rear leg, up high close to his body – his haunch. Jesus had a hunting knife on him and sat down beside the deer and began to talk to the crazed and frightened animal. He talked to it as though it were human. Then he began stroking its head and upper body and moved slowly towards the injury with his strokes. He had calmed the deer enough that it let him perform the necessary incision to remove the stick of wood. When he looked up from the task, all the rest of the herd had returned so quietly he never heard any of them. They were all standing in a circle – about seven or eight of them – around Jesus and the wounded one. As he finished, each and every one of them walked up to Jesus and licked either his face or his hand and then licked the wound. Jesus got up and moved away from the scene and watched as they all took turns cleaning the wound and comforting, in their own way, the wounded one. Eventually the wounded one got to his feet and leading the herd, they passed by close to Jesus, close enough to touch and they all looked him directly in the eyes as they made their way with dignity deeper into the forest.

74

Jesus came upon a young girl one day near the village well, with a large splinter in her hand. She was crying and thrashing about in pain. He remembered the incident with the deer and began talking calmly with her. Then he sat her on his lap and stroked her hair and gently moved down her arm and when he reached the splinter, he looked deep into her eyes and she nodded yes. In one quick movement he jerked the splinter out and remembering the deer he put her hand to his mouth and licked the wound for several minutes. He then sat the little girl down and she ran happily off to play. He had proved once again to himself that animals instinctively know what the right course of action is.

Jesus had a pet dog by the name of Shurma. It was a female and had a litter of pups on a fairly regular basis. After

seeing the strain this was on his dog, he sat down one day and tried to come up with a reason why Shurma had to go through this all the time, surely

there must be some way to help her. He started watching her behavior very closely and saw that there was a definite pattern to her periods of excitement and frenzy and sure enough always several months later she would have a litter. After this he started keeping her caged at that particular time and ended the toil and wear that the pups were having on her. He considered what he had learned by observing her and began to experiment with other animals and realized they all had an exact cycle

Then he began to apply it to human nature. He knew that females had the menstrual cycle, but could not reason why they didn’t stay with the cycle of excitement and frenzy like animals did. They didn’t keep the male away and only accept him during the proper cycle like the animals did. He did a lot of pondering over this and realized that there was a very important difference where humans were concerned. This was emotion, which didn’t affect the animal’s behavior. Human emotions are a very strong force field – so strong that they can overcome nature – in this case the female cycle

75

concerning acceptance of the male. These emotions grew much stronger over the ages till now the cycle no longer exists in the human female. Maybe in very rare cases it exists or is present, but so weak as to be non-effectual.

If this cycle had stayed strong as it did in animals, the world situation would not be as it is. Females could, if they concentrated hard enough, probably figure this age-old cycle out in their own particular case, but as stated, it is not strong enough to overpower the emotions. This is a lesson that needs to be learned. It cannot be corrected by physical means – therefore must be dealt with on the mental and physical levels. It must become in the New Creation as it was in the beginning, as far as the female being the one to regulate the act.

Another example of the wisdom of animals that he used was: “A mother pig suckles all her young exactly the same amount of time as though she has a built-in knowledge of which piglet has nursed for how long and when it is another’s time. This wise mother pig has the knowledge of the ages built right into her very body for all time. Nothing interferes with nature in the animal world.”

A dog injured his foot in a trap set to catch a bear that was bothering a field of sheep. The dog managed to get free, but was in a lot of pain. He joined the flock of sheep and followed them to the shepherd. Before reaching the shepherd, the sheep all helped the dog with the injured leg by lending him comfort and protection, finding him food and water. After they reach the shepherd, he treated the dog’s leg and they became hard and fast friends and stayed together and both tended and protected the sheep. The dog was not a young dog and the shepherd was a young man so each knew that the shepherd would outlive the dog, but this did not stop the bond between them.

76

They enjoyed the closeness as long as the dog lived and neither regretted anything. The dog had never tried to find his original master after meeting the shepherd. He had not been well treated and was not well loved and not even all that needed as far as duties went. When he found the shepherd who loved and needed him more and who had healed and befriended him and had shown him what friendship and deep bonding would be like, the dog never wanted to be anywhere else. He wanted to be with the shepherd, helping in any way possible and feeling content and secure and needed for the first time in his life. The dog had even left a pup with his first master and did not regret it as he knew he would be all right and maybe someday he would be reunited with the pup and be able to teach the pup how to tend sheep and help the shepherd.

Eight birds sat on a fence one day, all lined up in a row. A cat came close to where they were perched and all flew away in fear except one. When the danger was past, the others returned and asked this bird why he did not flee as

the others had. He told them that his instinct told him that this cat was blind and if he made no noise, the feline would not know he was there and therefore would not harm him. The other birds were amazed that this one could perceive blindness just from the way the cat approached but after thinking it over, realized that they too could have, had they been more perceiving and not so worried about their own safety. This is true in humans. To perceive what is going on in another and deducting what this means as to the safety and well-being of each individual is what all must learn. There is too much emphasis being placed on the well-being of one’s self and not enough insight into others.

THE JORDAN RIVERThere was a swamp near the Jordan, an area quite

large in size where the ground was always damp and 77

the cattails grew profusely. Jesus used to play here. He would roll up his pant legs and remove his sandals and wade in the swamp and watch different bugs and insects and pick cattails and study other forms of growth. He would compare this in his mind, this swamp, with the dry dusty hills a little ways away from the river and wonder at the immense difference in the two areas that were geographically so close together. Then he would apply this contrast to people he knew – married couples or parents and children, those who were close – and he would realize that this could and did happen in families. One of them could be like the swamp, wet and green and fruitful, and the other one dry and dusty and barren. These two areas (or people) could be side by side for a long time and no one would realize it until one day someone went from one area to the other and realized that there was a difference. After feeling the refreshing, fruitful green swamp area, the dry dusty barren hills were hard to take as reality. Jesus used this illustration later when talking to older people who wanted to follow him and believe in his teachings, but were held back by their families, (such as Ruth; if you’re familiar with her story.) But he also cautioned them that someone had to inhabit the dry barren areas and by their very presence make that area more livable. Everyone couldn’t live in the swamp, but what they could do was carry memories of the green, wet area with them and by irrigation and husbandry try to make the barren area acceptable.

Jesus loved to swim. He and a group of friends went every day to the Jordan and swam and played in the water and along the banks. His friends all admired his ability to stay under water for longer periods of time than any of them could. Even as a youngster he had control of his mental processes. One day while swimming, he

played a trick on them by swimming downstream around a bend out of sight and then got out of the water and

circled back around behind them on land. By the time he got back, they were frantic and were all

diving underwater looking for him. Some were crying and wailing. 78

One took off to go tell his parents. Jesus didn’t realize what a mean thing this was to do until he saw their reaction. He learned a lesson from this – that pranks can be carried too far. He gathered them all around him and asked their forgiveness, but also used the occasion for good by telling them that they should not fear death. He told them what it would be like when they did die and eased their fears.

When his mother and father arrived, they were all sitting in a circle with their eyes on Jesus as he was describing the wonders in store for them. He was severely chastised and punished for his misdeed. You see, he had to learn lessons like all of humanity. These years were all spent learning one lesson after another. He turned that bad experience into one with a more positive attitude by taking advantage of an opportunity to tell the children about death. This is a lesson that all humanity could benefit from today.

The stars were shining brightly one night in Nazareth. Jesus and a group of friends were night fishing in the Jordan. One of the young men with him became ill and slipped into the water. He had actually fainted and as the others reached for him he slipped deeper into the water and away from their grasp into the swift current. The rocks were sticking up all around and Jesus realized that someone had to go after him and help him or he would be lost forever. He wasted no time and jumped in after his friend. He soon realized this was a mistake. Now he was in deep trouble and there were two of them needing to have help. He shouted to the others to run along the bank downstream to a spot where a sand bar protruded into the water and wait for them to float by there. The friends did this and grabbed the first lad that went by. They tried to revive him, but in trying to stop Jesus who was getting near, they had to stop their efforts on the first in order to save the second who could save the first if he were saved. This was their decision and they left the first one and all hands pulled Jesus ashore who immediately revived the first lad. They all were cold, wet, hungry,

79

tired and scared when it was all over. They hugged each other close in sheer relief that the event had ended so well and none were seriously the worse for any of it. Each had learned a valuable lesson, but not all learned the same lesson.

Jesus spent one whole day fishing from early morning till the last light of day. They needed to have the fish to eat for their evening meal and he caught nothing. As he was leaving the river bank very depressed and upset, he came upon a bucket of fish and some poles and other equipment with no one around them watching them. He just couldn’t go home and face Mary. (He was about 16 at this time.) He picked up the bucket of fish and took them home. The whole family ate the meal and enjoyed it, but later that night Jesus got ill, very ill, vomiting the contents of his stomach over and over. He knew that taking the fish was wrong. He also knew that he couldn’t bring them back in the form he found them in, but was trying to bring them back anyway by vomiting them up in a different form. He knew this new form was unacceptable to be offered as a replacement for what he stole and he really was in a quandary. To add to it, he didn’t know whom he had stolen them from in the first place.

He never slept all night. His mind was whirling, first thinking how to locate the original owner, and finally, by dawn, realizing that this was something that he could tell no one – that he would have to live out his days with this on his conscience until he could find it in himself, the God Within himself, to forgive himself. He had only the best of intentions at the time he committed the act against universal law and this helped him accept the deed somewhat. He knew he had done it so as not to disappoint his family and also to feed them necessary food. At the same time he knew he had taken food from another one, but rationalized that this one was having better luck with his fishing and that perhaps he could replace what was taken. Jesus could not eat fish ever again after that without getting a sick

80

feeling upon ingesting them. He eventually gave up trying to eat fish. He was a long time bringing forgiveness of himself up out of his inner being, but finally managed to understand that it had been a very necessary lesson for the growth of his soul.

GARDENINGThe story continues with an account of beans – beans from the

small garden patch planted by Joseph and Mary and attended by Jesus. They were the kind of beans that grew on vines that climbed all over. One season they grew enormous and took over the garden patch. When harvest time came that’s about all there was in the

garden – beans. Jesus eagerly picked basket after basket and took them in to Mary and Joseph, very proud of his handiwork. As it turned out, the beans had crossed

with another variety of beans that had come up wild from the previous season of growth. The cross made

the whole batch of beans hard and distasteful – unfit for human consumption. They were given to the livestock and Jesus was bitterly disappointed that the product of his work was considered unfit for human consumption. He vowed never to plant another garden and also never to brag about his deeds until the final product was proven to be successful. The next season he did try again and was very, very careful that the ground was clean of all bad weeds and all previous growth, including the beans that proved to be no good. He took many more pains to prepare the soil first and also that the seeds he planted were the best available to him. His yield from this new planting was excellent and he had learned a valuable lesson about husbandry, the care and planting of seeds.

One year in the garden he tended, there were two rows of corn side by side – planted exactly at the same time. One row grew quickly to a marvelous height while the other row remained stunted. It didn’t show much hope for progress until quite a long ways into the growing season when it suddenly sprouted

81

forward and produced an excellent yield, while the first row that had grown so tall so fast produced puny, stunted ears of corn that were almost useless.

This parable was about the well where Mary and Joseph got their water. It was normally good sweet drinking water, but became contaminated by a substance that no one could pin down as to where it was coming from. It turned the water murky and people

were afraid to drink it or use it to water their gardens. This went on for quite a long while with people going

great distances to other towns to carry water back. They tried using it for washing clothes, but it would darken their clothes. One day, miraculously, the water was clean and everyone started using it again, but it did not have the same taste. There seemed to be a slightly bitter taste to it and people were

disappointed in it, but kept using it. One day a man came through town from a distant city and said that this had happened to his well. He advised them to crush up lime stone rocks and throw them into the well to sweeten the water again. This they did and had no more problems. The cause of the problem was never discovered. There were many different ideas as to what went wrong. Some even blamed themselves, which was ridiculous as it was a quirk of nature; perhaps an animal or bird had gotten into it somehow. But when the water turned pure and sweet again with the help of a stranger just passing through, then everyone forgot what changes the well had been through.

STARTING HIS MISSIONOnce when sleeping outside with some of his friends, Jesus

slipped away from them and went among the date trees to be alone and pray. His friends went looking for him, and when they saw what he was doing, they ridiculed him and laughed at him. With the tears streaming down his face and feeling shame and embarrassment, he quietly slipped away and went home. At home, after thinking about

82

the incident for several hours and berating himself for reacting this way, he got up and dressed and returned to the place where his friends were sleeping. He woke them up and made a huge campfire and sat them all in a circle around the fire and proceeded to lecture them for an hour. This was probably his first sermon, so to speak.

In essence, he told them that the Creator was always there to talk to, but that he was inside of each of them and they merely had to talk to themselves, so to speak. He told them he could do this better when alone and without any distractions, but that it could be done when among others. He told them that the Kingdom of God was within, that they wouldn’t find Him in the temples when they went with their parents if they couldn’t find Him inside all the time. He said, “If the cask of wine is empty sitting in your house, it will not be filled simply by carrying it to the temple. You have to fill your own cask of wine all by yourself. You have to find what you really and truly believe in, what is the truth for you and fill your cask with this and nourish it and replenish it every day yourself, not taking the cask to the temple once a week to be filled by someone else.” He urged all his friends to try this and with a sigh, he extinguished the fire and let them go back to sleep. This took place when he was about fourteen.

He was slightly built, but tall as a young man with reddish gold hair and blue eyes. He had a few freckles on his face and arms due

to exposure to the sun. He also liked to sing. This has never been brought out before, but he had a pleasing clear voice and for a while he toured neighboring towns singing, much like a minstrel or balladeer. His songs always had messages interwoven in them. This was actually the real start of his ministry, this singing.

After a while, he would stop singing and talk to those who had gathered around. He played a simple instrument similar to a lute or guitar. He would lay this aside and start explaining the meaning of a

83

song he had sung which he had composed. Sometimes he made them up on the spot.

The groups following him gradually grew larger and larger and as his name became known, he eventually gave up the singing as the people were so full of questions to be answered, and he felt that he could accomplish more by talking. He eventually did not carry his instrument with him at all. This was taking place when he was sixteen, seventeen and eighteen. The city of Jerusalem was never his home. He lived outside its gates. It was a walled city at that time and the gates were locked and guarded each night. He did most of his strolling musician ministry inside the city walls, but was always sure to leave by sundown.

He made up a song one day about two rabbits: One day a small rabbit sat behind a bush. His friend came running by. The first rabbit’s tail was sticking out from the bush and his friend stepped on it as he went loping along. The first rabbit felt as if he had been treated very badly and that it was done deliberately. The second rabbit insisted it was an accident and said he didn’t know the first rabbit was even behind the bush because the tail looked just like another stone and that he certainly hadn’t done it on purpose. The friendship was very strained after that until one day rabbit number two decided to reenact the incident with the use of a third rabbit to prove to the first rabbit that the tail really did look like a stone. At the crucial moment, when the first rabbit was running by, the third rabbit moved his tail and the first rabbit accidentally stepped on it. This went on through several verses until finally Jesus would lay his instrument down and start talking to the children about how very foolish it was to keep on harping over an incident as unimportant as that because the more you tried to correct it and prove yourself innocent, the larger the whole episode was growing and the more people were getting involved and more feelings were getting hurt. If it kept growing long enough, this one

84

little incident could lead to a full scale war. How much simpler to accept an apology to start with and drop the whole thing and not dwell on it. Most of the time, ninety-nine percent of the time, it probably was just an accident, a careless accident, but an accident nonetheless.

One parable used by Jesus when teaching was as follows: A merchant selling wares came through the village with a cart loaded with goods. He would stop at each house and also in places where

several were gathered talking, such as at the well. While stopped in such a crowd a beggar, who had been hiding under a mat in the cart, jumped out and ran, taking with him a valuable vase that the merchant had planned to sell for a goodly sum. In fact, he had depended on the sale of that vase to make this

particular trip to this town profitable. When he saw the beggar jump off and run with the vase, he started shouting and ran after him, waving his arm. The beggar tripped over a stump and dropped the vase which smashed into pieces. The merchant sat down on the sump and started crying. Jesus had watched this entire scene take place and approached the merchant and consoled him with the fact that he still had all the goods left in his cart. When the merchant returned to the cart which he had left unattended while chasing the beggar with the vase, he found that it had been ransacked and most everything else of value had been stolen. He realized that this trip through was not going to be very profitable, but had learned a valuable lesson and vowed not to leave his cart unattended again. The next trip through town he stopped at the same spot and caught a glimpse of the beggar who had stolen the vase last time. He became angry all over again and immediately began to chase the beggar. This time he tripped and fell and injured his leg very badly and also broke his arm. By the time he could drag himself back to the cart, it had again been ransacked and now he was in pain and in no shape to continue his trip. He spent the night in the cart and vowed not to return to that town again. But it was on the route to a

85

much larger town which he wanted to go to, so he had to travel through it and the people always wanted him to stop. He decided to stop once more, wondering what could possibly happen this time and stayed alert to every possibility. The beggar showed up, walked right up to the merchant’s cart and told the man how bad he felt for the inconvenience he had caused the merchant on the other trip through and wanted to make amends. He offered to travel with him to the larger town and help in any way he could. The two became hard and fast friends. A relationship was formed that worked well for both the rest of their days. They prospered and were happy.

Another parable Jesus used was as follows: There was a tree with twisted bark near the road to Bethany. The tree had strong limbs and heavy foliage and was used as a comfortable resting place for travelers on the road. This tree became diseased and the limbs starting falling off and it lost all its leaves. One day during a thunderstorm there was a group of people taking shelter under the tree when a gust of wind blew the tree over. Many were injured, several killed. It was a large tree and did much damage to the possessions of the travelers, and also blocked the road so they could no longer proceed on their way even if they were able to.

People in Bethany who were expecting them came looking for them and were shocked to find the tragedy that had happened. They took the dead and injured back into town and the rest of them stayed and cleared the tree off the road so passage was again possible. The wood from the tree was stacked along the road and soon disappeared as people passing by would take one or two pieces to use for their own ventures. Future travelers on the road no longer would have the beautiful old tree to take shelter and comfort from. They wouldn’t even have a log pile to provide shade in the noontime heat so most no longer paused there to rest and the huge tree was soon forgotten by all, even by those who took the pieces.

86

But it was never forgotten by those who had been injured or who had lost a loved one due to the demise of the tree. It eventually turned out that the tree was never remembered for the good it had done while alive, to shelter and protect others, but only remembered for the harm and hurt it had caused in its final moments.

One more parable used by Jesus is as follows: There was a group of men in the forest cutting wood. It was in the

middle of winter. They had a sled and all had axes. When the sled was almost filled, the

horses bolted and went down over a hill spilling the whole load. The men had to stop cutting more

wood (making forward progress) and spend precious time reloading the sled. It didn’t take

as long as the first time because they didn’t have to cut it this time, just pick it up and re-stack it, but daylight was fading fast and their original goal of having the sled fully loaded and ready to leave the woods before sunset did not work out. They had a choice – either leave with a partly filled load or spend a night in the bitter cold of the forest and finish the job the next day. It was a long ways home and they wanted to be sure they had enough wood cut. They spent the night, a miserable night, cold, shivering and cursing the horses that had become frightened and ran, causing the delay which was causing their present misery. The horses were being blamed when the problem really lay with the planning. The project should have had an earlier start so the time pressure was not on them and the horses should have been watched more closely so nothing could have startled them.

Chapter ThreeHalls of Knowledge

For Curious Teens age 12 through 14

Today's teens will need to know that it is part of their divine heritage to seek answers other than what has always been given and accepted by society. They will need to challenge the system to ever improve the system.

89

IntroductionRestructuring our Society

Teens today will be made to see that they will be remiss in their spiritual journey if they allow discrepancies in the systems as they see them, to go unchallenged, and you must believe they will see all that is not as it should be. Truly they are much enlightened as to universal law. They would not be on the earth plane at this time as youth who will guide the earth into the new dimension of thought, the fourth dimension that must come, if they were not well-grounded in universal law and cosmic concepts.

These teenagers will need to examine not only the political structure, but also the social structure and the business structure of our country to come up with a clear outline of a better way of setting up the ponderous machinery that, at the present, is necessary.

These youth have so many ideas of better, more simple, uncomplicated ways of achieving the same results as now being done, but that is only part of what they can do. They also have the power to change the results. This is where their true value will be seen. It is one thing to know a better way to achieve the same results, but the beauty of true spiritual growth is in being able to change the results. These teens can do that. They must trust and believe in the deep inner truths they feel, as this will be the way to the restructuring of all phases of our society.

Comparisons ofGood and Bad Attitudes



Prejudice Compared to Carrots

Some carrots are old and wrinkled – others smooth and slim. Some are bright orange and others discolored with brown spots but they all grew from seeds planted in the ground. Some put down deep roots with not much on top; others grew bushier on top and didn’t penetrate too far in the ground. But think of the rabbit. Does he care? He loves them all – any size, shape, color or age. Be like that rabbit. Everyone is just as delicious as

the others in the bunch.

Pride Compared to Big Hole in Middle of the Road

It is a big blemish on something that should be whole and perfect. You can’t get around the hole and there’s no use laying boards over it as a temporary measure. It must be corrected from the depths of the hole and rebuilt up towards the surface so it is solid and will never cave in again.

Resentment Compared to Cherries Hanging On Tree

They all came from the same tree trunk and had the same opportunity

98

to grow. They all received the same amount of water and sun. They started out equal but maybe one branch was on the side of the tree that got frost bitten as blossoms and didn’t get a chance to grow. The ones on the other side did grow, but one of them got half eaten by a bird, unfortunately. They all have the same kind of seed. There are bad breaks in life, but since we’re all related, the cherries that didn’t do well shouldn’t resent the ones who did, because they will have another chance next season to grow and develop into beautiful fruit. Maybe the ones who did well this season will suffer misfortunes next time around.

Wrong Integration of Idea Compared to Weaving

If a thread (idea) is being woven into an over-all pattern and is not woven according to the dictates of that pattern, it will not produce a good result.

Love Compared to an AppleAn apple is grown on a tree with roots deep in the ground. It has to reach a certain age; it has to mature, before it can bear fruit. It must be nurtured and cared for and kept free of harmful parasites and diseases. It must go through a blossoming stage and be pollinated and then slowly firm and ripen

99

into a full grown apple. The full grown apple has a beautiful color and a firm smooth skin. When eaten, the flesh is sweet and juicy to the taste. It has a core at the center with seeds and a stem which makes it easy to hold and a fairly flat base to rest on.

Impersonality Compared to a HammerA hammer can be used in many different ways. It can pound a nail in to hold something together or the claw end can be used to tear something out so it can be put back together right. It is made out of a very strong material. If something doesn’t fit just right the hammer can also be used to give little nudges by tapping on different sides to make it fit. But a hammer is always an extension of an arm. Think about this. There is always a

handle separating the hand from the part doing the work, usually a warm wooden handle.

Intuition Compared to Oil Lamp Glowing in the Dark

An oil lamp has a warm, golden steady light that never flickers unless something really blows hard outside. The flame is inside; the heat goes up the chimney. It’s fueled by a reservoir of oil in the bottom. The flame can be dimmed or brightened according to our adjustment of the wick, but it gives

off a beautiful comforting glow in the darkest hour. When electricity (all else) fails, it’s ever there for our use in

100

guiding us in the dark. It is dependable and has been used by mankind for a long, long time. It is just there; it has always been there for our use. Some people make more use of it than others. It can’t fail. What can go wrong with an oil lamp?

Spiritual AnalogiesHalls of Knowledge


Spiritual Analogies

We Are All One Compared to an Ant that ExplodedWe need to realize that all people, in incarnation or out of incarnation, are all one entity. This is the point that needs to make so very, very clear to humanity. The following analogy may perhaps help some people understand what is being said. Please picture yourself, not your physical

body, the you in your inner experience, the secret you, the you that only you know, please picture this you as being so very, very curious about the ant kingdom that you decide to just explode yourself (compare to the big bang when the Creator exploded Himself). All these little pieces of you, go down into the ant hole (earth) and enter into the ant bodies (human forms) and find out what it’s like. What is it like to live down inside an ant hole and come to the surface occasionally and see that vast, huge empty space everywhere? And then down inside this hole there are so many, many things for these ants to do and to experience. Perhaps they’re worker ants, perhaps they’re ruler ants, perhaps they are the ants that go out and gather the food and bring it back or the ants that go out and don’t come back. What happens to the part of you when someone walks up and steps on an ant? It just hangs around until another ant is born and then it enters that body to learn more about the ant kingdom. It cannot come back up to you because it is not whole and it will not be whole until it is joined with all the other parts of you that flew off when you exploded yourself, that are now in the ant bodies.

104

The Divine Sparks Compared to Cells of Your Body

Each Piece of divine spark brought with it a piece of the wisdom and knowledge. Picture it as each cell in your body that has a pattern in it whose purpose is single, to build a part of the eye, or to become a piece of the liver or help makeup a finger. Each of these cells in your body has the total beingness and wisdom of the Creator buried under the

surface but is of single purpose as far as each incarnation goes. This would apply to the sparks or the pieces of the divine mind. They are as cells of the mind of the Creator and have as their basis, the total wisdom of the Creator, but for the purpose of experiencing the earth plane they had a single-minded purpose. That purpose was to enter the animal/man bodies and learn to experience the world from this viewpoint and to return to the Creator with all the experiences they could gain. At the same time that these sparks were to educate the Creator, the Creator was to educate the animal/human bodies.

The Divine Spark Compared to an Actor

105

The same spark returns each lifetime trying again as a different personality. The old personality moves on up the inner planes of earth, learning by watching and studying.It would be as an actor playing, creating actually, many different roles, and keeping these roles in his memory bank until he had performed one hundred and

forty-four different characters. The experiences that each character went through as the actor played the role, influences the actor’s performance of the next role, and when playing the next role the actor can draw on something he learned as he played the previous part.These previous roles wait in the wings, backstage, watching, learning and helping when they can until the actor has performed one hundred and forty-four different roles. These roles, personalities, are not “dead” but neither can they get in front of the footlights again. But a part of each of them, the best traits and experiences, are embodied in the actor – the divine spark.This actor, pumped full of all the experiences and wisdom and knowledge of one hundred and forty-four lifetimes, then gets “married.” He meets his opposite half and they “blend” into one unisex soul, (They are called divine sparks until they are blended – reunited with the twin – then they are called souls, with 288 lifetimes of experiences so they are very wise.The spark joins the other half of the spark left on the inner planes and as a whole spark, now called a soul, does an accepting and rejecting of all its past lifetimes. It is almost like reviewing a group of plays wherein you were the star, and deciding the best roles you played. You analyze everything and perhaps one small line that was delivered quite eloquently from one play will be the only

106

thing to go on the plus sheet for that play. But this is enough for that play to stay on the roster of good plays.The souls then move on to become teachers of acting in the same “School of the Arts,” but no longer care, at this stage, to be in front of the footlights again. They want to teach and train and help their younger brothers and sisters as they have their turn to perform “on stage.”

Life for the Soul Compared to Looking in a Mirror

The soul is that part of a person that has reincarnated over and over again to constantly perfect itself. This is its only concern – absolute perfection – so it can pass on from the earth plane with its constant round of trials and tribulations and begin the real business of living in the glory of God. At present he is living in the reflection of God. It is as though one

can never touch the real person, only a mirrored reflection. Picture, if you will, meeting someone on the earth plane whom you truly admire and have always wanted to meet. You finally get your chance but you can only see this person in a mirror. You cannot truly touch them or shake their hand or have intimate contact with a mirrored image, can you?If you speak to a mirror, the sound bounces back toward you. If you see the mirrored image talking, you would be fascinated as the lips move and you try to read them because your ears cannot hear the music of their voice which gives a whole feeling to a person. Without hearing their voice, you are held at a distance.

107

This is what life on the earth plane is like to your soul. It is very frustrating.Now on the inner planes it is a little, tiny bit better. It is as though living in the shadow of that one you admire. You know you are near them, you can feel their warmth and vibration and hear their voice, but you still cannot touch them or look into their eyes or have a sense of communion with them. It also has its own level of frustration.But yet you know that it is possible to be near the real person, to talk with them, touch them, be healed by their vibration and caressed by their eyes. You know this is possible, to work with them to be their helper and to someday be in this inner circle. This is what your soul strives for in all its many lives on the earth plane. Your soul in your incarnated body is only half of its total self, remember. Half of it is your own personal soul on the inner planes. It is living in the shadow of the glory of God which is better than what the half of soul with you in your body is doing. It is living life looking into a mirror. This is just slightly more satisfaction than a picture hanging on the wall.Therefore, contact with your own other half of your soul on the inner plane, is a much more satisfactory feeling. This is why you need to have periods of meditation, which is the only true form of worship.As your soul progresses, both on the earth plane and the inner planes, it is continually moving closer to the shadow and also at the same time, its mirror image for its half on the earth plane becomes sharper and more real. The half on the inner plane comes closer into contact with those nearer the figures you admire and want to be close to. Remember, part of the oversoul, Michael, stayed on the inner planes while He sent the other half down to experience, learn and grow. As with Him, so with us. As our half on the inner planes

108

grows and becomes closer to His half on the inner planes so must half of our soul on the earth plane move closer to the mirror, to the reflection, which is the part of Him on the earth plane – the rest of humanity.

Life on Inner Planes Compared to Life on Earth Plane

There are fun times on the inner planes. For example, a group of souls who are dedicated to, let's say music, in this particular life time, will get together and just simply have a party. Or perhaps they are all artists. But like will attract like on the inner planes as far as these fun time periods and also as far as the lessons go. The universal law of like attracts like

holds totally in all aspects of the inner plane. It is not opposites attract. The whole soul is what experiences the inner plane, not the half soul. Each evening there is a period where the two halves of the soul meet and join up or bond. Then they are with others, either in class or on a fun time, at a lecture hall, strolling along the banks of a river, walking through gardens, in libraries searching out data. At the end of the night, there is a separation period again. Relate this, if you will, to when the husband comes home from work. Perhaps, he and his wife embrace. Perhaps they go to a party. Perhaps they attend a lecture or class. Perhaps they prefer, instead, just to go to bed. No matter. They are together until the following morning when the husband or the wife or both must leave in the morning to go to work. They are separated during the day. They know that separation is coming daily. It’s the same thing on the inner planes when they know they separate as the

109

day begins for the entity on the earth plane, and that they will come together again that evening. There is no difference in these two analogies. Even to the point of one half of the soul being of the female characteristics and the other half the male and they do join and bond. But, they are bonding with the other half of themselves instead of with another fragmented being. This is what is taking place on the earth plane. People, in their relationships, in their marriages, are trying to bond with other fragments. This is why relationships are difficult to work out. But, this is where the lessons lie that will speed up what is being learned on the inner planes. Lessons in attitudinal behavior and relationship problems can be taught over and over again in the lecture halls on the inner planes, but if it’s never brought into the earth plane and experimented with, and the concepts applied to the reality of earth plane life, then those lessons are never cemented into the beingness of that soul.This may explain why so much of our education is not as it should be. The application of the lesson is not included in the school. Whatever is being taught must have a period of practical application for it to be assimilated in the brain of that person. The same is true of the lessons on the inner planes.

The Seedcore Compared to a Sperm BankWhen the system of the seedcore was instigated, it was actually a tiny piece of energy made up of both halves of the soul. It was kept withdrawn. You may compare it to a sperm bank, if you will, but it consisted of both positive and negative energy as it was deposited in the “sperm bank” before the separation of the soul. This is the seedcore. It is

equally part of both halves of the soul, no matter which half is in

110

incarnation and which half on the inner planes. The half on the inner planes is still inside the human form, remember, but the seedcore is not. It is part of the ethereal realm. It is the motor or nerve center or control center, the seed, the central core, of that particular soul. This was a very important stage of human evolution.

The Individual Seedcore Compared to a Sponge

The seedcore of each, their individual seedcore, is like a porous rock or stone or think of it also as a sponge. All the tiny cells of this sponge are filled with all this great and beautiful knowledge of former incarnations. It is compressed in each to as small an area as possible. This sponge needs to become as though soaked with water. It will swell and expand inside

each and the knowledge locked in these tiny black holes of cells will be released. The way to get it to expand is through meditation, imagination and visualization. But first there must be the awareness that it is there inside of each, in the brain of which only between ten and twenty percent is being used now. These cells of the sponge must be enlarged for evolution to go forward.

God Compared to Grease Puddles in Soup

111

God is not a huge father figure sitting on a throne up in space. He is embodied in “rings of energy” (teaching conglomerates) for our benefit. This is His only way of being able to reach out and help all humanity at one time. When each entity perfects his soul to the point of not having to reincarnate ever again, he moves into the realm of true spirit,

and is indeed in an energy form. This energy form is a “thought-form,” a conglomerate “thought-form” - the experiences, intelligence and wisdom of many entities joined together. A “ring of energy” would be a good way to describe them. If people could picture these “rings of energy” as God, then perhaps they could better work with the energies or, if you will, “cooperate with the will of God.” These rings of energy can be compared to grease puddles on top of a kettle of soup. In fact, let us visualize a kettle of soup as per the drawing on the previous page:There are many rings or puddles of grease on the top. Some are big, some are small. As grease continues to rise to the top in minute pieces, it gravitates to one certain grease puddle and clings there. Picture each puddle as having a different color perhaps and the color coming to the top goes to the exact same color of grease puddle as it is. Remember, like attracts like. These different colors are different areas of interest and expertise. When picturing God this way, He is many, many different grease puddles on top of the soup.When one raises his consciousness enough to rise up, he comes into contact with a certain grease puddle that then becomes his “pool” of teachers and guides. These teachers and guides form one part of the trinity, and the entity’s own mind forms another part of it. Healing of the physical body needs to be done by the mind of the entity, which must be healed by the ethereal body.

112

The ethereal body, in turn, can be healed by tapping into the universal mind, the third part of the trinity. The universal mind is higher, more powerful and all-inclusive than the grease puddles – the teachers and guides.These grease puddles or “rings of energy” are usually made up of from five to seven entities on the inner planes who serve about twenty entities on the earth plane. This is a rough estimate; there is no set amount, you see, because it depends on the evolutionary standing of those on the earth plane. There could be a ratio of five to two hundred, or five to four hundred or even higher. There will never be less than five in each ring of energy.The vibrations making up these pools of energy are the accumulated totals of the lifetimes of those in each ring. This is a stage of the inner life lesson plan that all partake of at a certain point in their evolution. The teachers and guides can serve in the area they choose, within certain limitations, depending on their level of development and expertise, because they have multi-faceted lifetimes to draw from. Some of them have been rapscallions and some angelic beings at one phase.The grease puddles of energy are to help step down the healing from the universal mind on the ethereal body to the mind of the entity to heal the physical body. In other words, they are the go-betweens to correlate and filter information between the universal mind and the human mind.To continue our analogy, the kitchen in which the pot of soup is cooking can be pictured as the universal mind. This kitchen has the smell and feel of everything that has ever taken place in any kitchen anywhere in the world from the beginning of life. This will give you an idea of the universal mind.This is where the saying, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, came into being. This was one communicator’s way of interpreting the knowledge he tapped into. We have been visualizing it as a

113

kitchen, a kettle of soup and grease puddles. The Holy Ghost is the kitchen in our analogy and The Father is the kettle of soup and the Son is the grease on the kettle of soup. No matter which analogy you choose to use, just remember that it is, all of it, energy!

Rings of Energy, or Seedcores or Teaching Conglomerates Compared to Warts

The seedcore is a collection of thought that those on the earth plane are tied into. The seedcore is a conglomerate or ring of energy that certain spiritual families return to as their “home” base when returning to the inner planes. It is determined by many things, one of which is similar

interests that have remained with a soul throughout all his lifetimes. The seedcore could perhaps be thought of as a wart on the body, a seed wart, one that has many little bumps in it and then causes many little warts on all parts of the body in many different sizes. It is a well known fact that when the seed wart is removed the smaller warts will disappear which means that they are an integral part of the seed wart. There are probably 21 total bumps in each seed wart if it were magnified many times. There is approximately the same number in a seedcore, but only about half of them are in incarnation at one time. The rest stay on the inner planes to direct from there. The warts in the outlaying parts of the body can be considered second cousins in this seedcore family.

Stages of the Spiritual Path Compared to the First Seven Grades of School1st Grade

First grade is learning to leave home, to be away from the parenting influence and come under that of a teacher you have never known before. This is a frightening experience to most people. Yes, this can be related to those leaving the church teachings, those comforting, homey teachings and coming under a teacher they have never known before.

But just like a child entering the first grade, a great big wide wonderful world begins to open up for them and they realize that this new teacher, although much more disciplined than the parents were, is still kind and does not undermine the teachings given the child by the parents. The parents still have final authority for the child, until the child is old enough to decide for himself whether he wants to progress on and learn to read more of those exciting books and do more than just printing his name and learning a few numbers, or do singsong chanting of little poems and songs. This craving for further knowledge is, remember, the first thing the teachers and guides look for to begin to further that “child’s” education and awareness.2nd GradeThe second grade is then entered. This is where the child is taught to work in groups, to cooperate and blend and harmonize to a fuller extent than he could in first grade. The teachings are furthered by organizing little study groups that come together about every 3 weeks and then exchange bits and pieces of their stories. The children in the second grade basically learn harmony with others.

115

3rd GradeThe third grader is beginning to realize that he or she is different from all those others. There are always little squabbles going on at recess on the playground. There are incidents of hair pulling and name calling and pinching in the lunch line. This behavior is normal to third graders. They must learn just how far they can go to express their new found individuality. They must learn there are guidelines that they must observe. At the same time, they see a larger picture of the coming grades of school and realize that “they are in for it.” This also adds to frustration and causes misbehavior. The third grade is one of the most important grades in the stages of growth, not only for grade school children but also for all humanity in the over-all spiritual path.4th GradeThe fourth grader again works back towards getting along with others, accepting the fact that Bobby is better than he at drawing or Janie can read faster and is the leader of the Bluebird reading group. But a wise teacher will try, at this point, to bring out one main activity in each student that can be, perhaps, developed more in this one than in others. The teacher then lets it become known to all the class that Johnny, even though a slow reader, can be a whiz at taking care of the gold fish or perhaps stacking books up neatly and respecting them, or even just cleaning blackboards. This fourth grade stresses self-esteem and the value of each member as far as his contributions to the whole grade.5th GradeFifth graders are the most loving of all the classes in school. They are back to learning after the summer vacation and realize they are truly glad to be together, to see all others and to share all parts of their lives and activities with each other. The teacher draws on this togetherness and they are very good at pulling together to put on special plays and performances to

116

demonstrate to the younger grades how well they get along. They do not make as much progress, perhaps as other grades so far as academic standing goes, but they do settle in and become part of all the knowledge and learning gained thus far.6th GradeThose in the sixth grade are again struggling with their individuality. They sense that they are on the brink of new discoveries. Far reaching horizons are within their grasp mentally, but physically they must continue to sit in their seats and study until this term of schooling is ended. They are getting anxious to have more freedom in their mental studies and also know that at home they will be allowed to make more decisions on their own and have more freedom to move about. This stage is one of great growth and discovery of what one’s own self is really all about and should be encouraged by those teaching this grade. These sixth graders are at a very special and crucial point in their development as loving individuals and are at the critical point as far as having self-esteem ingrained into their being. This is a very important stage in anyone’s schooling, be it academic or spiritual. Also the physical body is of course going through the many, many changes necessary to be able to encompass the changes that are taking place in the other bodies at this time. If the physical body does not receive proper nutrition at this time, development of the other areas will be greatly slowed and damaged.7th GradeThe move to seventh grade at last! “Now I can try out some of my own ideas when writing essays or giving debates or talks. I wonder if my ideas are too far out from most of the other kids. Oh well, they are probably wondering the same thing.” Doubts and uncertainties abound in those at this stage of their education and this is not a year to send them into a strange school with older children as so many of our schools are doing now. The time when

117

that can and should be done is the following grade, that of the eighth. Those in the seventh grade need to have the security of familiar surroundings because of all the other changes they are going through, but before the first semester is even over they are gaining self-confidence.

Scientific AnalogiesHalls of Knowledge


Scientific Analogies119

Comparing New Energy to Cola

The new energy is a very scientific happening which will affect everything in existence on the earth plane. Perhaps the best way to describe or explain it is to compare the air we breathe now to a can of cola that has gone "flat."

The new energy or air that we will be breathing can be compared to a fresh can of cola that is bubbling and fizzing with energy to the point where it bounces on the surface of the cola up into the air and you can feel it if you put your hand over the can.

There is a tremendous difference between these two glasses of cola.

120

The one has no life – can be considered "dead." The other is teeming with energy and new life. It could also be compared to dropping an alka seltzer into a glass of water and watching the action that takes place.

For a moment, think about the effect the flat cola has on your taste buds and the sensation you have as you swallow it. It has a much heavier feel to it, almost a sticky sweet feel as you swallow it. It is not satisfying to your taste buds and lays like a dead weight in your stomach. On the other hand, the fizzing cola will fill your mouth with a sensation of bubbles and also a slight stinging. There is a certain feeling of excitement when swallowing it and a feeling of being refreshed and energized after you have drank it. This comparison between flat cola and fresh cola is perhaps the best way to help people understand the difference between the old energy and the new.As a person flows with the new energy and the feelings it brings, and expresses these feelings, he will find himself much more loving in response to family and friends. He will be less demanding of their attention and able to let go of his children and allow them their independence.

Subatomic Particles Compared to Snowflakes and Atoms to Snowballs

The existence of the sub-atomic particle can be compared to that of a snowball. The material to make a snowball comes to earth in many tiny crystals of frozen moisture. These clump together at a certain point in the atmosphere because “like attracts like.” The moisture content of all those small crystals clumped into one snowflake will be within a certain

121

range of being the same. When the snowflakes hit the ground they are piled loosely upon one another. To make a snowball, many of them are compacted together. Consider the difference in the volume of space that is needed by the snowflakes that have not been compacted and those that have been compressed into a snowball. This would compare to the sub-atomic particles as the loose snowflakes and the snowball to an atom. The snowball cannot exist without first their being the tiny, tiny crystals of frozen atmosphere. This would compare to those particles from the highest realms. The clumping together to come through the atmosphere as a snowflake, relates to teaching conglomerates on the higher planes. The snowball on the ground relates to the human.The snowball will exist as long as the temperature or conditions remain acceptable for it. This is true for humans. But when the conditions start changing there is a deterioration of the snowball. It begins to melt if the temperature climbs. This related to humans, means that the human’s form begins to deteriorate. The cell structure begins to change. Of course the human doesn’t melt as does the snowball, but the loss of substance is there. This substance is the energy of the Creator that made up the form in the first place. The cells in the human body are made up of matter that will allow them to expand; else a human would remain the size of a baby. This is what caused the snowflake – the expansion of one tiny crystal into a snowflake that could be seen with the human eyes.In the human, when the process of deterioration begins, this matter begins to recede or melt as in the snowball. Where does the melted snowball go? Does it just disappear off the face of the earth? No, it goes into the ground to be collected as moisture in a stream and eventually returns to the ocean where it rises into the atmosphere to begin again as a tiny frozen crystal that will soon become a snowball.

122

This is how the process of the sub-atomic particle’s existence works only the sub-atomic particles come from the sun and return to the sun, snow returns to the ocean and humans return to the earth. You see, the atoms in our bodies are broken down to the Mineral Kingdom. No matter whether the human form is buried or whether it is cremated, we return to the Mineral Kingdom and the atoms are started on another journey. The same as the particles start on a new journey when they return to the sun, or the snow flake to the ocean, we, the humans, return to the soil.

Frequency Compared to Burning Candle - Pitch or Tone Compared to Flickering Candle

There is a candle burning in a window. This candle flame is strong and steady until the wind begins blowing outside and some of this wind comes through a crack at the side of a window. When this happens the flame begins to flicker and move around and almost goes out until the wind lets up and the flame becomes strong and unmoving once again.

Now the atoms inside that flame are dancing madly whether the flame is steady and strong or whether the flame is moving and flickering. Those dancing atoms are the frequency. The pictures that this flame makes to the human eye, whether the flame is steady or moving and flickering, are the pitch or tone of the flame. The pictures of everything in the room are affected by the moving and flickering, but not by the dancing atoms within the flame.

123

To relate this to music, the string on a guitar when plucked with no fingers on a fret will always make the same sound. This compares to the dancing atoms inside the flame – a potential if you will, a frequency. When the fingers are placed on a fret the motion of this string is changed when plucked. It moves around in a much more different pattern and sounds different to the human ear. This is pitch or tone. The unmanipulated guitar string when plucked compares to the candle when it is burning steadily. The guitar string when not plucked compares to the candle when not lit.

The Moon Compared to a Movie ProjectorThe sun seems so cold, even though hot – so impersonal, so far away – yet it is the life giving force, the energy, for all on our planet. When it is shielded from us through our atmosphere, or when we are turned away from it at night, the energy, by reflecting from our moon, gives an entirely different type of energy. The moon merely reflects; it has no inner

light of its own. Therefore, the rhythms of the moon have a different affect on the human psyche. At night during the full moon the energy that we receive is a reflected energy – a very weak reflected energy – that has a strange effect on all things on our planet for that particular number of hours it is reflecting on us. The moon itself is serving as a “movie screen,” perhaps is the way to explain it, to bounce the light off, so as the light hits the moon it doesn’t receive anything from that moon – it’s just bounced back to earth and therefore does not have any vitality. As a matter of fact, it has the ability to enhance any thoughts in the path of the reflected light. Picture our movie projector and the dust motes that you can see that are enhanced in that beam of

124

light from the projector to the screen. This is what happens from the screen that the moon is serving as, back that beam of light to our particular spot on earth. All thoughts in that path are enhanced and most of them are thoughts which are not allowed to leave the area of our earth because they are of not high enough quality. This is why, when we are in our full moon stage, people have strange behavior patterns.

Personality Compared to a Painting on Canvas

Please picture the personality as a picture painted on a clean canvas that will be the leading character in a picture book story to be followed for a lifetime. The problem is that the clean canvas is not as clean as we think. When the soul can actually start painting with color on this canvas, it must be remembered that there are spots of grease seeping

through from the underneath side of the canvas that do not let the new pigments spread and flow evenly. This causes blotches in the painting. If the soul wielding the paintbrush has flaws in the manipulation of that brush that cause uneven brush strokes and jerky lines, then these, combined with the blotches, make a pretty messy painting. If the soul is wise when it enters and realizes that there are spots of grease seeping through from underneath, then he will take pains to eliminate these spots of grease before trying to paint on top of them. In some cases, at intermediate levels of evolvement, the soul learns to cover them over on top of the canvas before proceeding. What he doesn’t realize is that they will eventually work their way to the top layer of paint and present a blotch after many years. A more evolved soul will know that they must be taken care of from underneath.

125

Inside of Rocks Compared to Making Cake Icing

The inside structure of a rock is made up of a specific shape which is crisscrossed by a certain pattern of spiny threads, which is the way anything molten will layer when touching a cool surface. As an example, when heating sugar and water to the boiling point and then pouring it into beaten egg whites to make frosting, it will layer in a fine stream and make a

criss-cross pattern. This is an exact analogy of how the rocks were formed in the beginning. If the rock cooled very fast, which most of them did, the fine streams that crisscrossed each other were fairly well blended into the rest of the material of the rock. These fine streams that crisscrossed were still imprinted inside the rock and can be seen with a powerful enough microscope or a powerful enough X-ray camera. These thin streams of molten material are as strings on a musical instrument. They can be tightened by heat and sensitized by sound to raise the energy level of the rock. This is what light and music can do to the rock. This is called sculpting or faceting and will expose this inner “lacy” section to the outside atmosphere and allow this light and sound to have a much greater effect. Geodes are the only stones in which the internal structure and latticing can be seen with your own eyes and should be studied at length to help you understand faceting or sculpting.

126

Cause of Earthquakes Compared to a Litter of Puppies

Earthquakes are indeed a reaction of the earth itself to the calamitous emotions being felt by the inhabitants. This is so very difficult for humans to understand and accept. Perhaps the following analogy will help with this understanding.Picture a dog (planet earth) with a litter of puppies (humanity) – say a large litter of sixteen. These puppies nurse from the

mother dog, but they also crawl all over her playing. Let’s assume that they are all in a cardboard box which limits the area the puppies have to roam. They more or less are forced to live their life on top of their mother’s body. As they grow larger, they also come into the animal instinct in very strong degrees. These animal instincts bring on fights and upheaval is prevalent at all times within this box. At first the mother tries to control her brood by giving warnings and little nips and perhaps growls, but it soon becomes impossible to struggle against them. She resigns herself to this sort of activity on her body and slowly but surely the vibrations of the fighting dogs begin to wear away at her vital organs. It first affects the muscles of her body which causes her to not be able to move out of the way of the puppies into the corner of the box. She is slowly becoming paralyzed. As the puppies continue to fight they are also continuing to nurse and get their sustenance from the mother dog. As the mother dog’s muscles become paralyzed partly from the vibrations that are constantly being sent into her body through their nursing and their animal instincts when fighting, she can no longer consume

127

enough food or digest it in order to provide the milk to nurse the puppies. The milk processing plant of her digestive system is the first to shut down. The other organs soon follow suit, but then a strange event will take place. There will become a period of time when the animal instinct body of the mother will take over and rise up as energy, unbelievable energy, in an effort to save her own life. She will find the strength to stand up and shake her body and thus shake loose the puppies and scatter them against the sides of the box. This is an inborn instinctual happening that actually would take place with humans who were being destroyed in the same manner if this were ever to take place. At times this instinct will show up in humans as they prepare to die, but in most cases it does not, due partly to drugs that are used and also to the fact that man is leaving his instincts behind as he evolves. This is one of the instincts that survived the transition from the animal stage to the human stage, but it has slowly been bred out of the race because it was not needed as strongly in humans as in the animal kingdom.This mother has now reestablished her power in the cardboard box and the puppies settle down, learn to eat other nourishment that is given them and not continue to feed off the mother dog. This heals her digestive system allowing nutrients from her food to heal the other organs of her body. If the puppies are not removed from the box the whole set of circumstances will take place over and over again until the puppies stop fighting and calm down their vibrations to peaceful and loving cooperation with each other and the mother dog.This can be related to the human communities affected by not only earthquakes but also by all disasters. You can readily see the analogy of humans living of top of the mother earth. When they fight and bring forth their animal instincts they affect the harmonious pre-planned functioning, of the mother as being the

128

one able to provide sustenance. Please keep in mind that the human body is made up of material of the earth. The same way our bodies are sensitive seismic instruments of stress, so also is the earth from which these bodies were fashioned. It is made up of exactly the same material. The first thing affected in the mother dog was the muscles. The comparison of this to the earth is the plates that allow movement of the continents, just as the muscles of the dog allow movement of the dog. As these muscles in the dog become weak and stop her ability to process any of the bodily functions, so also does the stoppage of the movement of the plates affect other processes in the earth. These other processes that are affected are the cause of floods, fires, volcanoes, tornadoes, snowstorms, lightning, and hurricanes. All the other natural disasters that take place are the result of the stoppage of the movement of the plates which is caused by the animal instinct emotional upheavals that the humans living on the mother earth’s body are sending into her body.When things get to the point of being no longer bearable, the natural instincts of the mother will surge forth, she will stand up and shake to remove the burden of the parasites living on her body and taking their sustenance from her nourishment. Then there will be a healing process until the whole thing happens again.

The Make-up of a Human Compared to a Paper Doll

A simple way to explain the four different aspects of the human would to be picture a four-sided paper doll. The front of the paper doll is the physical body. This is

129

what people see when they look at another person. This is the image they give to the world. Unless this person turns around and puts his back to the world and worldly goods and possessions, one will most likely never see his spiritual facet which is the back side of our paper doll.The side of the doll where the heart is located is the emotional body. The person has to turn this side of them outward for people to see it. This will be brought out by conditions that affect the daily life of the doll. This is when it will turn this side to people. It most often will be things out of his control. In the papers doll’s case, a good stiff breeze will cause it to swing sideways. He has no control over this breeze.The other side, the mental body, cannot turn to the people until it determines it wants to or needs to. It is very strong and the stiff breeze will not swing it around and let it be shown. It is a deliberate action, a well-thought out action of the doll that must take place before the mental body will be shown.A doll that has synthesized its soul with the incarnating entity will no longer be affected by the stiff breeze. When it finally synthesizes body, mind and spirit the doll will rotate at an even pace at all time and the viewer will see the same exact thing on all four sides as it rotates.This is an esoteric definition. To get down to the simple facts, the physical body would consist of the physical organs and the animal-based brain. It would have as its components the digestive system and the elimination system of the body along with, of course, all the moving parts of the body, including the five senses.The emotional body would consist of the aura surrounding the physical body, in other words, the ethereal body and the sixth sense, the intuition and the sensitivity that goes along with this intuition. The emotional body also has use of the five other

130

senses, but does not use the digestive or elimination systems unless the emotional body is out of balance. This will cause it to use all the attributes that are really the physical body’s concern. This is a “sick” emotional body that will cause overeating, or the purging and vomiting that go with anorexia nervosa or those who commit suicide. A healthy emotional body will use the five senses for enjoyment of beauty, not for maintenance of the physical body.The mental body uses the brain more than the other two. The physical is working on instinct, the emotional on intuition, but the mental body works on intelligence. It will use the five other senses to help it in its understanding of the world, not for body maintenance and enjoyment of beauty like the other two bodies.The spiritual body is a well-balanced grasping of all aspects of beingness that the other three bodies encompass. This may sound like a complicated statement, but this is truly what the spiritual body is, a blending of the balances of the other three. This would be a knowing or inspiration as to when to use the senses for what purpose to keep the body in balance.

Harmony in the UniverseBy Norma

132

In the vastness of spaceAnd in the stillness of timeThere is a HarmonyCausing the stars to shine.

Each star on its ownWould look black in spaceBut there is a HarmonyThat lights up each one’s face.

The vastness of the universe

Seems so huge and strangeBut there is a HarmonyThat round about does range.

There is no wind as suchNo sound of anythingBut there is a HarmonyThat makes it seem to sing.

All around we sense our GodIn all His many formsBe glad there is a HarmonyThat brings Him to our arms.

If all were truly stillAnd all were truly darkThen we’d have no HarmonyNaught would leave a mark.When looking at the heavensAnd sending thoughts to GodBe sure to feel this HarmonyTis’ the way we all must trod.

Harmony is God, my friendIn everything we doThis Harmony is God, so

133

Let the Harmony be you.

Standing On the Edge of EarthBy Norma

When standing on the edge of EarthAnd looking over the sideWe find a New Age being bornO’er the universe so wide.

Not just on our own home starBut way, way out in spaceAll things of God’s creationMust take a step up with grace.

Dear Earth is not as graceful

As most of the other starsShe still falls down in many waysAnd has her spats and wars.

This new time of wonder being bornIs cause for all to rejoiceEach star has its own different soundAnd all will be given voice.

Earth will join her sister starsIn the universe at largeShe will have won the hard fightOf her destiny she’ll take charge.

Harmony of the SpheresBy Norma

Harmony is the way my friendLet Mankind join the songIf each would start out hummingHe’d blend in 'ere long.

Picture the flowers in nature

As you take your long, long hikeThey blend in beauty alwaysAs no two are alike.

The blending of our thoughtsAt odds within us stillWill help the feeling natureOur happiness fulfill.

None have the total answerWe’re like isolated notesIf we could harmonize togetherWe’d hear the music He wrote.

Harmony then would enterWe’d feel more at peaceThe blend of music and colorOur daily lives would ease.

They’re be Harmony of all kingdomsAnd Brotherhood of ManWe’d soon see peace eternal

135

Spread o’er the beauteous land.

Just feel the rhythm in youLet the melody fill your earsBe part of one big chorusThe Harmony of the Spheres.

Walk With the AngelsBy Norma

Walk, walk, walk with the angelsWalk, walk, walking alongTalk, talk, talk with the angelsWhile they’re singing their song.

Why not walk with the angelsWhen they’re moving alongThey will always guide youSo you won’t go wrong.

Why not walk with the angels

Step out sure and strongThey’ll lead you to glorySinging a heavenly song.

Why not walk with the angelsWalk hand in handThey want you to join themIn their heavenly band.

136

Why not walk with the angelsOn the mountain topIt is so excitingYou’ll never want to stop

Why not walk with the angelsIt’s one sure way to goYou won’t get in troubleYou’ll be with friend not foe.

Why not walk with the angelsMatch their heavenly treadYou will always followWhere their feet have led.

Did You Ever Wonderby Norma

Did you ever wonder, did you ever questionHow far the nearest star must be?Did you ever wonder, did you ever questionJust how far your eyes can see?

Just how far your eyes can seeHow great t’would seem to be so free.It feels so strange to look out thereAs though there’s joy too sweet to bear.

Did you ever wonder, have you had a feeling

That there’s something drawing you?Did you ever wonder, have you had a

feelingThat something old can seem so new?

Like love that’s been there all the time

137

You feel it with you as a sign.This love transcends all time and spaceI long for the day when I’ll see its face.

Keytone Lesson Booklet

© 2013 The Chrysalis Teachings

By Norma Hickox

No. 1 - Tone C - Color: Red

140

C is very strong and aggressive. The person relating emotionally to this tone is comparable to master numbers in numerology. There will be those who have this as their physical or mental ray that they are working on. The color red is warm-bodied, deep, exciting to the emotions, but at the same time is a clear, penetrating, no-nonsense tone.

The tone of C will be that which cuts through the fog of wishy-washy thoughts and gets right to the heart of problems. It is the color of your blood and affects the whole of your body as it courses through your veins. It echoes of your beginnings and gives you the desire to blaze new paths. It will not have this effect as strongly if it is not the keytone.The lessons for the emotional body that lay in the tone of C will range from controlling a violent temper to transcending normal communication channels to the advantage of all humanity. The problems of controlling the temper stem from the remnants of the root chakra that was the beginning of the animal-based brain. If one chooses the tone of C for their keytone it is now an octave higher tone as the original tone belonged to the first root race. These tones follow the insemination experiments done by the space fathers because they are the physical body tones. They of course set the pattern then for the cadence chords which then must follow the patterns set by the physical body chord, which is the triad built on the keytone.Any with the tone of C as their emotional body tone in the physical triad are going to have a difficult time balancing their emotions. They will not be considered “flaky” or anything such, just stubborn and moody. They will go to the depths of depression

141

and the heights of elation. They obviously needed work in learning this control or they would not have chosen this tone. There will not be an easy path for any associated in any way with one with C as their keytone. But once this person has learned some degree of control in this area they will be a loyal, strong, determined worker for whatever cause they get behind.The most obvious course of action for a person on the tone of C is to be bold and overbearing. They will lean to strong colors in their homes, if not in their dress, especially in the personal rooms of their home.The person working on the keytone of C needs to be on guard at all times and record in a notebook what precedes each period of depression or elation. They must treat this as every bit as important as a disease they have that they are trying to learn to control through diet. The first stage could be as though taking their temperature each morning. This recording of events preceding a high or low is very important to establish a pattern that then should be avoided. It may be a dream, it may be association with a certain entity, or it could even be a certain food or a combination of more than one factor. This recording must be the first step and a highly unemotional, factual, scientific step, indeed. The time for emotionalism will be when the cause of highs and lows are finally beginning to show a pattern. Then regressions should be done to find the thread of the pattern that has carried through previous lives and this will help this person gain the determination to break this pattern and gain control at long last of his emotional body.

No. 2 - Tone C#,Db - Color: Red/Orange

142

The tone of C#/Db has slightly more orange in the red. It is that of one who is also strong and brave and a trail blazer, but not quite as forceful as the C itself. It is a little less full-bodied in depth of tone and color. Those with this tone as their keytone are not as quick to anger as the pure C tone, but it is there none the less, just not as up-front and not as deep an anger, more like a less intense flame than

the deeper red.With C#/Db as a keytone this person’s emotional body will be steady but not dependable. It would be as a very fine, weak fence holding this person’s emotions in check. They will be not as quick to anger as those on C but will not have the stability as far as responding the same way to similar situations each time they arise.The lessons embedded in this tone are those of knowing who you are and what you are doing on the earth plane at this particular lifetime; in other words, knowing your true purpose. Until this is found the person with the emotional tone of C#/Db will be wishy-washy and have no direction to their lives. Once it is found there will be no stopping the progress this person makes as far as righting any wrongs that he determined his soul had committed in previous lives. He will head straight and true as an arrow down a course that will clear all karma as far as he can determine and chart the path for his next life totally free of all emotional debts.He very likely will not make any emotional commitments early in life, but once he himself is stabilized, then he can and will make a lasting commitment, not only to a spouse, but also to his values and beliefs as far as spiritual laws for him to live by.

143

He will not always be the easiest person to live with on a day to day basis once he has “found” himself, as he will let nothing stand in his way as far as his own progress goes. He will be a self-starter and work around the clock if doing that which he loves, but don’t try to force him to do anything he doesn’t want to do.The person on the emotional tone of C#/Db will not show his feelings to any around him ever. They will have to learn to read this person as though reading a book as he will only give away the secrets of his heart through certain body movements and facial expressions.The main lessons set up for this keytone is that of finding purpose in life and keeping that fragile emotional body in place throughout all the lives on this tone, so that it is no longer a problem when he moves on to the tone of D. The tone of C#/Db is definitely for stabilizing.

No. 3 - Tone D - Color: Brilliant Orange

The tone of D, the color of brilliant orange, is one with a clear, brilliant, bold look, but has a thin and brittle feel. It speaks of fire, but from a less intense angle than the previous C or C#/Db. Those with this as their key-tone will be brash and pushy and move with a quick grace, but would be better off if more contemplation were undertaken before moving or speaking. This color of orange is

one that will blow into and start vibrating very strongly with the

144

violet color of the sixth tone. If D is one’s keytone, this one will respond to anything relating to the sun.The tone of D represents the initial stage of growth of the animal brain as far as becoming a “thinking, reasoning being” instead of working on pure instinct. Those choosing this as their keytone will not do anything on pure instinct but will reason every decision out, deliberately trying mentally to imagine different outcomes for different ways of acting.This is why the tone of D was chosen, so this lesson could be learned. Evidently the one choosing this tone has a record of acting impulsively and were guided into choosing this keytone to learn to think before acting. If they do not realize this, they will probably waste another opportunity that has been presented to them. They must do this before taking action of any kind. It will be a necessity to their mental health and none should try to interrupt this process, not even those who live with them, or they are robbing this person of a greatly needed lesson. This is the one main lesson to be gained from choosing this tone of D. This person has his emotional body in control by this time as this must be accomplished before the lesson of “thinking before acting” can be mastered. The other advantages of having D as an emotional body tone is that of fine tuning all parts of the emotional body. D is a “thin” tone and will necessarily tend to make anyone using it for the emotional body less likely to get heavily involved with a deep relationship. This person’s relationships will be as skimming the surface of the emotions. This is not to say they will not or cannot love others, just that they will not hold any in emotional bondage. Their emotional body will not allow them to do this.They will usually have about three different partners throughout the course of their life, with the last relationship being the one most likely to last longer than the others. This is due mostly to the heavy lesson they have taken on as to slow deliberate actions and reactions. This is also what makes their emotional body like thin

145

ice. They go through the emotion of a decision mentally before allowing any of it to surface, so they come across as hard and brittle to those who do not understand them and their goal. You will not find many using this as a keytone.

No. 4 - Tone D#/Eb - Color: Orange/YellowThe keytone of D#/Eb is a strange color. It is a mixture of yellow and orange, which should produce a pale apricot, which it basically is, but at times it vibrates with more red and at times with more yellow, making it unstable in its responses. This tone, more than any other, will shift with the tides depending on moods. At times it will lean one way and pick up the orange of the tone of D before it, and

at times (very rarely, but it does happen), will reflect back to the red and express deep anger and as spoken of before will also reflect strongly the yellow of the E ahead of it, and also blend this with green of the F ahead of that to produce almost a tan at times or even a brilliant light orange. When really absorbing from all sides it can even show as a rust and the color of brown could show up. It is the most unstable of all tones. Those with this as their emotional keytone will have ups and downs emotionally. They will ride a roller coaster and those involved in close relationships with them will have to be constantly on guard.The tone of D#/Eb is a beautiful tone when used as the keytone as it changes colors constantly even to the point of seeming to shimmer. This emotional body is firm and controlled, like jello, but able to shake and bend and move and sway with the movement of others around it.The lesson of this tone, or perhaps I should say lessons as there are many, all have to do with finding the middle path – the one path that seems to cause less moving and shaking of the

146

emotional body. While the search is going on, this tone reflects and emits colors of all around it. It is not stable, but is not a harmful instability unless, and this is where the seriousness of the lessons lie, it is thwarted in its every effort to find harmony and blending.This tone has other serious lessons attached to it concerning the emotional body. This is the time when a creative release of some sort must be started, even if not mastered. This is of course part of the lesson plan of the life on the fourth tone. This periscope from the inner to the outer must be begun at this time for the person to eventually be able to reach his Inner God. This is imperative. This must not be passed by. Anyone with this keytone must draw, paint, write, play music, whittle, carve, knit, crochet, bake, cook, dance or build models, anything to bring the inner forward.The one other important item for this tone is to realize, before the end of the last incarnation on this tone, that it was a preparatory stage for a series of lives being very outgoing in contrast to a series of keeping to oneself. This happens on all black keytones, but is more concentrated in the tone of Eb. Those on this tone are preparing to step into the pure bright yellow, a steady unchanging unfaltering keytone that is one of great stability as it was one of the original preset colors and tones for harmony.

No. 5- Tone E - Color: YellowThose with the tone of E and the color of yellow will be brilliant in whatever facet of their life this tone falls in. It is a stable color and does not waiver either direction from its brilliant yellow. It is extremely stable as it is not split off into a black key sharp. It is as though it has a barricade or stopping point between it and the fourth key. Although it

147

does flow through and combine with the blue of the fifth key to make the green of the fourth, this does not bleed back to affect the yellow. Those with yellow as their emotional tone, their keytone, will be right out in front with their emotions and will, for the most part, have sunny personalities with a magnetic quality that draws all to it.Those on this bright yellow tone of E have the most stable emotional body of all tones in the lower half of the scale. They can be considered almost unemotional to others. Of course the emotional body is there protecting the soul which expresses very strongly on the tone of E as this is, remember, one of the pre-set tones and colors of harmony at the original creation.Those working on E have many lessons to learn, do not misunderstand, but not as many as far as the emotional body as there would be if the E is a mental tone. But no matter, there are lessons, one of which is to let others have the right to different opinions while keeping their own counsel. This is hard for these ones to do. They can control wanting to tell everyone else what is wrong with them only up to a point. Then they can no longer hold their “opinion” in. This is where the lessons need learned as far as emotional control on this tone.What these ones have to offer is valuable, do not misunderstand, but the dogmatic way, as being the only right way, is the problem. The ones with E as their keytone, more than most other keytones, are working hard on discretion, discernment and diplomacy. Coupled with a fourth D of discipline, as far as this emotional reaction that usually only occurs when interfering in another’s personal life, makes a program called the four D’s the main area into which the lessons of this tone will fall.These people usually have sunny, pleasant, and easy to get along with, almost magnetic personalities and are a joy to know in all areas except this one, and this one area will not show up until the

148

person on this tone of E knows another quite well. That’s when the trouble starts. This would be something to be on guard for when entering into a relationship with any on this beautiful, brilliant tone of E. These ones will enjoy, also, being in the spotlight. They truly see themselves as brightening up the life of others around them and truly they do.They will most always be found in a profession working either directly with individuals to help them be better persons or in the field of the arts by making the world a better place for humanity with their own creative expressions of beauty.

No. 6- Tone F - Color: Brilliant Green

The keytone of F is the most common one you will find for individuals in your particular area. It is one of brilliant green that truly sparkles like a jewel with depth of tone and full-bodied appeal. It has as a foundation the colors on either side of it. It is the central tone and with the one below, “E,” and the one above, “G,” forms the bridge to close and span the gap between the lower fiery

tones and the higher spiritual tones. Those working on this keytone of the soul will relate with all nature and will love the green fields and trees with a passion. Anything relating to nature will keep their emotional body in balance. All the person on this tone needs to do is to spend time with nature to keep balanced. The tone of F is also a very stable color, holding its own as the bridge, the equalizer between the lower forces of nature – the lower vibrations – and the higher, spiritual healing vibrations.The tone of F presents many lessons for soul progress. Among the more important ones is the fact that the soul is becoming much

149

stronger in one on this tone, sometimes even momentarily overpowering the personality, but at this stage is not a wise soul. It is not mature as yet with the “wisdom of the ages,” but is like a fledgling bird first trying out its wings. It will make many attempts and have many failures as to what it thinks correct actions and reactions should be, but this is a good sign of progress.As the emotional body was strong and stable on E, it seems as though it regresses on F, but truly only seems this way. It must break out of the shell of steadfastness and progress on with curiosity about everything connected with this stage of progress. It must experience. This is the plan for tone F and most on this tone will not tolerate any interference in this “right” of his to experience and express as he sees fit. Any on this tone will not make a steady partner in any enterprise or in any relationship of the heart. They will be almost unbearable at times in demanding their “right” to “do as they want” at the expense of others and the risk of hurting deeply those who are unfortunate enough to care for them.Do not be too harsh on the people on the tone of F. Have compassion for them and be a pillar of strength for them as they try to fly out of the nest and land flat on their chin time and time again, as this is the only way this soul will learn right action from wrong. Remember, please, that you either have this tone of F ahead of you on the path, or have already been through these seemingly endless, difficult, demeaning and sometimes staggering lessons of the soul on this tone of F. This is, after all, the tone of planet earth herself and it truly is “Harmony through Conflict.”

No. 7- Tone F#/Gb - Color: Blue-Green or Aqua

150

This tone is the blend of the green of the F and the blue of the G. It is an uncommon pitch for any to choose as an elective tone. If it is one’s soul tone, then this one is really on the way of bridging between intelligence, innate intelligence and ages old wisdom. This one is on a true path, but caught in his own battle between a sharp intelligence that is denying innate wisdom. It is a sharp piercing

tone when it is the keytone, don’t you see, but is mellowed when one of the other tones. With this as a keytone this one will not blend with others.Those working through lessons on the keytone of F#/Gb are rare. Their biggest lesson lies in stubbornness as far as their opinion being right on every subject under the sun. The lessons on F were similar, but the people on F were bendable and pliable while those progressed to F#/Gb are not.

No. 8- Tone G - Color: Blue The keytone of G is a beautiful blue, a sparkling blue with a depth of color that transcends anything you could imitate in the world today. Blue is the color for wisdom. Light blue is the color of ageless wisdom, that of nature, as opposed to the deep royal blue which is wisdom of the cosmos. Those with this as their keytone, their soul tone, are indeed storehouses for treasures of wisdom,

not factual knowledge necessarily, but the wisdom to use what knowledge they achieve. It will be knowing, as an instinctive reaction, how to handle problems in human relationships. This tone of G will be a somber, quiet calmness with much stability.

151

This color, in combination with the tone of E, the yellow, actually produces the tone of F, but the F is closer in quality to the E, the yellow, than it is the blue of the G. The G relates more to, and is the doorway into, the spiritual healing tones that are above it in the scale.The tone of G presents some rare opportunities for strengthening the emotional body. This tone is working with the wisdom of the ages. When this wisdom is received, this person finally realizes how unimportant some of the things that used to upset them are. They no longer are interested in “playing games,” as it were, with the emotions of others. As a matter of fact, they most often are not that interested, emotionally, in others.For this reason, they may not make an exciting partner in relationships of the heart. Do not misunderstand, they have the capacity to love, but it is a mature love that does not feel the need for emotional expression. Their love will be strong and sure and faithful, but if in a relationship with one on a lower tone they will seem boring and uninteresting. Herein lies the biggest lesson on this tone. They need to learn that even though they themselves do not need emotional expression, that their partner does.This will also be true of any they associate with in their everyday life. This is a big stumbling block for any on this strong tone of G, which also was one of the pre-set colors and tones of original creation.

When we speak of these pre-set colors and tones, we mean simply that they are used as way stations for the struggling soul to “catch” his breath by having an emotionally stable body at these points in his upward spiral, almost like landings on stairs. These tones, being stable and strong, give one working on these tones an opportunity to work very hard and accomplish difficult

152

lessons in other areas, either the mental, spiritual or physical bodies.People on the emotionally stable tones work well with most others and blend in harmony both musically speaking and color wise. They are the primary colors and primary tones in the key of C.Those on the tone of G are very pleasant in causal associations because of their capability of blending. Blue and yellow, another pre-set color, blend to make the green and blue and red, also a pre-set color, blend to make purple. Think about this.

No. 9- Tone G#/Ab - Color: Purple

As we move up to the G#/Ab we find a tone of deep lavender or purple. As a G# it tends to have more blue in it. As Ab it leans towards more of a reddish hue, but it is purple. One with this as their soul tone will be aggressive and passive at the same time. It is a rare tone, not too many will have it as a soul tone. When it is the soul tone, this person has progressed through all the

previous stages and perhaps has a mastery of them in his seedcore that he is not using at this time as he is working on a new rung. The tone of Ab denotes power and authority and majesty if the keytone. If one of the other tones, it lightens up and still has a depth of power and firmness, but not the authority of spiritual realizations it has as the keytone.Those working on this keytone have a balanced emotional tone if they have progressed in growth and evolvement as they should. If not, the emotional make-up will tend to be “shaky” if it does not have a creative release. This tone, more than all others, needs

153

the emotional release of the emotional body as strongly as though it were medicine.At the same time, this creativity must be bringing forth the soul of that one. Any artistic pursuit entered into or sought after for material gain will have just the opposite effect of what is wanted. This is the main reason why this tone is chosen at any certain particular time for an entity to work on. It just simply is time for this soul to express and express it must through beauty in many, many different forms.There are a few other lessons for the emotional body on this tone. One of which would be controlling feelings of repulsion that come from viewing or being immersed in anything ugly. They must learn that there are ugly happenings on the earth plane and that even though they would like to be kept from any of this, they cannot. They must see that this ugliness is there and learn to tolerate these situations. This is almost a necessary part of their being able then to bring forth counteracting beauty. The more deeply immersed for a time in ugliness, the deeper the depths of their soul they do reach to bring forth this beauty.The person working on this tone will, for the most part, be a very pleasant companion in a relationship, but it will take a superhuman being to meet all the requirements this one will have for beauty. This one can stand ugliness for a time, then can no longer survive in this atmosphere and will leave if there is no beauty to be found and expressed.

No. 10- Tone A - Color: Deep, Dark Pink

The keytone of A natural is a beautiful, deep pink, deeper than rose, a more clear, liquid, fluid tone than any on the keyboard. The term magenta, fuchsia or wine may come

154

closer to describing it, although I prefer deep, dark pink, as it is not as warm a feeling as the others. The one with this as a soul tone is one who is very spiritual indeed, a natural spiritualness, but not necessarily one destined to be a teacher. This one will respond to all faiths and beliefs with a knowing that they are all only seekers after the truth and will not judge any. He will stand head and shoulders above all others in any gathering, but free from ego.The person working on the tone of A is very special. This is a tone that is in the most perfect balance as far as this emotional body goes. It is the exact balance point of all three bodies and this one will be, for the most part, in perfect health and beauty for all their incarnations on this tone. At times they seem too good to be real, but real they are and very pleasant to be around. They have long since lost any trace of ego and have the right amount of self-esteem to be able to bring out the best in any they associate with and not feel threatened personally as to their own value. In fact, this person has very little problem areas in any of the different bodies making up the whole. They love beauty also, but do not get off balance emotionally if they do not have it. They are very good at all forms of art and creativity because of the rigorous lifetimes on the previous tone where they had to express beauty in all forms of art.For this reason they can relate to and enjoy all forms of art without feeling the compulsion to “do it themselves” that those on the previous tone have. Here again, they enjoy and appreciate the efforts of all other artists without feeling threatened as to their own self-worth as they have the assurance that they can do it also if they so desire.But truly this is not why they are working on this tone. They chose it for the balance so they could have a hands-on working relationship with humanity to make the world a better place for

155

all. They will all do this in whatever manner they feel best suited for. Those in a relationship with any on this tone will have to be mature in their own actions and reactions or will not be in harmony for this “angelic” being they are with.

No. 11- Tone A#/Bb - Color: Pearly Light Lavender

The keytone of A#/Bb is one of purity of values. It needs none other to blend with to accomplish loving deeds with no ulterior motives. It is a beautiful color of light lavender with a pearly sheen, almost pink at times, but mostly lavender that is also at times very close to white, a very strange color to those of us on earth, as we cannot duplicate it.

Strange also seems the behavior at times to the general public of one who has this as their soul tone, as their soul is also as pure as this color. It picks up a shine from two below and two above, deep rose of A and deep purple of Ab and pure red from C and purple white from B. It truly is a fine blend of the qualities of all. If it did not pick up the red of the C to ground it, it would have trouble relating to earth problems. It would probably just slip off the face of the earth.Those on the tone of A#/Bb are again working with duality as far as their soul goes. They have gone through all stages of emotions so far and have come back out of the state of perfect balance and are working on almost being an instigator to make others shape up their emotional bodies. Their own emotional bodies get bruised in the process and they swing the pendulum to the point of having hurt feelings caused by other’s cruel comments, or so they

156

think. At times these people are absolutely miserable because of what they think people have said about them; what they think other people think of them. It is almost cruel to put a person through this at this stage of growth and evolvement, but it is almost like one final purging of this martyr complex that each must go through.The lessons on this tone are very difficult because of the sensitivity of this emotional body. They will try their hand at many creative arts, but will not find any that really satisfies them. Indeed, what they must realize is that they have progressed beyond the point of most ordinary artistic expression. They need to come to terms with the fact that they are so creative that they cannot copy others; they must pave the way with a “new” form of expression.When they make this realization, they will immediately shape up, come out of the martyr complex and the “poor little me” syndrome and get on with the business of giving to humanity a new, original form of intellectual creativity. Yes, there are stages and steps of the path of creativity itself and the stage after this will be ethereal art. This will be the form of expression for those on the next tone of B.One more comment on the tone of A#/Bb is that these people will not find happy relationships on the earth plane until they have found this happy relationship with themselves as far as creation of their own personal reality and giving birth to it in a realistic form.

No. 12- Tone B - Color: Brilliant White

This tone of B is one of brilliant white light with a sparkle and a shining that does indeed

157

pick up the reds and blues and purple. It is different from the A#/Bb in that it picks up the deeper shades and tones to color itself with and therefore, when saturated with color, reflects a deep, royal purple and when not grounded, it sparkles a beautiful, pure shiny white. Any with this as their soul tone will be on a very special mission. It is so pure and deep and spiritual a tone that it reflects to all others in the scale the sparkles and shimmer quality of spiritual fullness. The person with this as a soul tone will be a great leader and teacher of all.The tone of B – what can we say about the emotions of those on the tone of B? They have made it through the fire and brimstone and purging that took place on the tough upward spiral of the path below them. They have survived the agonies of the previous tone that the soul puts itself through and is now m a state of a very light emotional body, but one that is very finely tuned.It is rarefied and sensitive to the slightest vibration from all his surroundings, almost to the point of being in pain when near ugliness in the form of bad behavior due to attitudes in those near him. For this reason, this person will keep mostly to himself as a matter of choice rather than go out and be immersed in the world, due to the pain that comes from this immersion.The people on this tone are to be given compassion. It is very difficult to cope with materialistic values, but herein lies the lessons for this tone. You knew there had to be lessons or there would be no need of incarnating on this tone, didn’t you?The lessons do indeed involve learning control of this sensitive instrument inside them that registers every change in attitudes, the same way a seismograph registers tremors in the bowels of the earth. This one’s emotional body will do the same. But he must work in the matter world. He cannot hide and go sit up on a mountain or he will not learn control of this fine instrument that

158

will stand him in such good stead when he moves on from the earth plane.This tone is the final preparation stage for becoming an ethereal being and the one way this instrument of a soul can be kept balanced is through ethereal art. We have mentioned ethereal art only once before and need to explain it.Ethereal art will be a combination of earthly materials formed into a beauty that transcends the earth plane. In other words, ethereal art will take ordinary things in the matter world and raise them up to be perfection in beauty that would then take on an existence of its own, being a real, living, viable part of the ethereal kingdom. This is very difficult to explain, but the one working on this tone will perhaps understand without many words what we are talking about.Ethereal art will be a combination of earthly materials formed into a beauty that transcends the earth plane. In other words, ethereal art will take ordinary things in the matter world and raise them up to be perfection in beauty that would then take on an existence of its own, being a real, living, viable part of the ethereal kingdom. This is very difficult to explain, but the one working on this tone will perhaps understand without many words what we are talking about.

Ethereal art will be creativity in action of becoming a real life form that will continue on in progression to the upper realms as a thing worthy of our creator. It will be the essence of creation and will have the quality of pervasiveness which is, remember, the ability of the spirit to enter matter

Chapter FourHalls of Wisdom

For Curious Youth age 15 through 17These youth have the potential to expand and stretch their brains but they must take this gift and learn to use it for themselves. This brain cannot be taken back, traded in if you will, on a newer, larger model. They must work with what they were given. They need to do all they can to take care of and upgrade the "model of motor" that is driving their vehicle.

IntroductionStretching and Expanding our Brain

Because our brain is capable of unlimited growth, it stands to reason that there can be no limitations imposed on humans. This is where our education process is failing, by setting limits on what is expected of children. This is absolutely the wrong way to encourage the growth of the brain cells. No one should ever have any limits imposed on him at any time as to what he is capable of understanding and learning and using as tools to live by.

Philosophy is considered exoteric education; Spiritual Truths would be esoteric education. Philosophy is a gathering together of the thinking processes of many great humans over a period of time. Spiritual Truths are pulling thoughts and concepts out of the center of our being…having each one pull these from their own center is, perhaps, a better way to put it.

As long as we were in the third dimension, exoteric education was proper and fitting for us, but now that we are going into the fourth dimension it no longer is. We do not want to throw away the educational concepts of the past, but we do want to combine them with esoteric education which is bringing in new concepts and thoughts. This is the direction all education must take in the future. It cannot be one or the other – it must be both and at the same time. Simultaneous education of the inner and outer processes of life is what must be accomplished. Each one then will have a much broader base to define their own “philosophy” which will be the Spiritual Truths for each. The old philosophy was just mimicking those in the past. The new philosophy or Spiritual Truths will be drawing the future to us.

God Compared to Whipped Cream Salad187

1. “Judging Others” compared to “Riding a Bicycle”

Before you try to pass anyone (pass judgment), be sure your vehicle (bike) is under perfect control. It must be balanced exactly and pointed straight down the path. It must be in as good a shape as possible. No flat tires or broken chains, and the form setting the vehicle in motion must do a good job operating the vehicle. If you have a hill to climb in

front of you, you best be sure you can make the climb yourself and if your companion needs help, try to help but don’t tell him he can’t make it because his bike is old or because he is too weak. Try to encourage him to do his best and if he is struggling up that hill and getting tired, reach out a hand to help.

2. “Manipulation” compared to an “Artificial Hand”

An artificial hand can manipulate things in a way a normal hand cannot, but it takes more conscious thought and effort to do so – more than the normal hand does. Everything comes naturally to the normal hand, but has to be carefully thought about and planned out by the controlling factor of the artificial hand. Perhaps it can accomplish more intricate acts than the normal hand, but it leaves whomever it touches with a queasy

168

feeling – a feeling of coldness and uncaring; a feeling of artificiality.

3. “Narrowness of Mind” compared to “Store Ice Cream”

Store bought ice cream tastes good, but isn’t good for us. It has a lot of artificial things in it and preservatives to keep it fresh so it will last longer. It makes some people hyperactive. It is cold and refreshing, but leaves you thirsty afterwards. You long for something to drink to take the aftertaste out of your mouth. It’s expensive and won’t last when exposed to warmth. It melts down and becomes an ugly, sticky puddle.

When eaten, it is not good for you because of the chemicals that eat away at your insides. It poisons your body.

4. “Diplomacy” compared to a “Stairway”

You climb a stairway one step at a time. You can pause for as long as you need between steps and you’re always given a railing to hold on to between each step. Stairs not only move up but also forward. They have a firm construction and they have a place to start, to take the first step. This is at the spot where you are standing. There is noupper limit to the stairs. You can climb as high as you like or need.

5. “Compassion” compared to a “String of Pearls”

169

A pearl is said to be made over a long period of time as tears of the oyster. It is caused by irritation to the inside of the body. It must be taken out of the body and used for the full beauty of the pearl to be seen. No one knows it’s there if it’s kept hidden inside the shell. Pearls have many different shades and sizes, but all are beautiful and feel warm and vibrant when held in the hand. Pearls are used in a string joined together with a hook. The

pearls near the clasp are usually smaller and gradually grow larger towards the center of the circle. These circles or necklaces are worn around the throat (used to speak); sometimes they are worn on the ears (used to hear). Some eyeglasses even have pearls embedded (used to see), and there are pins worn over the heart (used to feel). can climb as high as you like or need.

6. “Fickle” compared to a “Chameleon”

Chameleons change the color of their skin to match the environment. To be fickle is to be childish, a combination of immaturity and fear … fear of losing control of oneself by caring too much for others, and immature in not wanting to accept the responsibility that commitment would bring. It does not want to have to make a decision.

7. “Hypocrisy” compared to a “Pumpkin”

A pumpkin is big and fat; it can grow to an enormous size. In the center are a lot

170

of seeds and stringy stuff, all clinging together. These false insides must all be pulled out to get at the real insides of the pumpkin, which is next to the outer skin and is good. Pumpkins are used to mock others at Halloween. They are carved into grotesque faces and a candle is lit inside so that ugly faces shine in the night. They eventually rot into a stinking mess.

Spiritual Analogies


The Spiritual Path Compared to a Stairway173

The teachers and guides that one reaches when meditating can be compared to climbing a stairway. These stairs are not flat steps; they must be pictured as the rings of energy spoken of previously. As you climb, each ring, or step, is turning you in a different direction. If people can relate better when putting a name on each circle,

each step of the stairway, then let them. They really and truly are bands of energy arising from the earth plane that can be tapped into.The overall pathway, or stairway if you will, can be related in your mind to what you have always heard of as the Holy Spirit. Another term would be divine mind. As this stairway progresses higher and higher, we can relate this to music, because each ring of energy reflects up an octave. Perhaps a guitar would be a good illustration. As it jumps its octave, it forms a harmonic, and reflects an octave higher. This is precisely what happens when you advance on these rings of energy.These rings of energy can be related to the religious teachers and others throughout the Bible. In the very beginning of earth there was no Holy Spirit to speak of above the earth plane. It had to be built. As these first entities passed on from the earth plane, their spirits ascended, and the next plane was built in this manner. The higher planes being discussed are the emotional, mental and spiritual levels and above. Each level is one of those harmonics, one of those octave higher jumps in progression, referred to in the previous paragraph. But remember, it is this beam of Holy Spirit, a circular stairway that you are ascending.The rings of energy, pictured as stairs, have labels attached to them with the names of religious leaders and outstanding men and women throughout history. Everyone has the power to tap

174

into the rings of energy, this stream of knowledge. When they do, they tap into the lowest level first and must work very hard to get up any higher. But they must continue working, they can’t just stop. The same words are up here for anyone to reach if their vibration is high enough. This source can be tapped into in times of stress or crisis.As you climb these stairs, there are fewer and fewer on these steps, which means there are fewer and fewer past experiences to tap into. Only the good experiences are stored under the ethereal name on the akashic records and this is what you are tapping into.As you move up in this beam of light, this Holy Spirit, this energy field, you go backwards on the family tree. The line of communication will go higher and be lighter and smaller and dimmer and you will eventually reach the very first humans. The further back you go, the closer the energy gets to the truths of the divine bind. As it gets closer, it gets purer; it is not as contaminated and muddied with error.

Your Spiritual Journey Compared To A MousePicture a mouse running on the shore of a lake. He eats, sleeps and dies on the bank of this lake. His body disintegrates, but the part of the mouse that lived on could now rise beyond what he could see and know in his environment of the area around the lake (planet earth). Now he had traveled at times all around the lake, had even ridden across the lake on a log

from side to side and end to end. There was even a tree that extended way out over the narrow part of the lake and met a tree from the other side and he crossed the lake on this tree high above the water. But he could not climb the sheer rock cliffs that

175

surrounded the lake and had no idea what the surrounding territory looked like. He didn’t know if there were more lakes or not. He had lived numerous lives (reincarnations on earth) always in the area around his lake.But this time when he dies he (his spirit) does not merely hover over this lake waiting for a chance to reenter the body of a baby mouse (reincarnate on earth). His spirit continues to rise. It is so light and free it rises above the sheer rock cliffs and he finally can see the surrounding territory. IT IS A FANTASTIC SIGHT! There are more lakes, similar but somehow much more beautiful, and none of them have the sheer rock cliffs around them that had held him prisoner in one area for so long. Now that he can see and know how much more there really is, he is no longer as interested in his old lake (planet earth).In between lives on the old lake when hovering above waiting (on the astral planes), he used his widened vision to mentally tell his brothers and sisters of food supplies at one end of the lake or other or tell them of a branch that wasn’t safe that he could see and they could not. Maybe he spotted a big cat lurking inside a cave and warned them. He did what he could, always, to help those below with his expanded knowledge if they would listen (channeling). But now that he sees the immensity of the rest of the territory, he now wanted to tell those down there, in that little lake at the base of the sheer rock cliffs, what he could see and what lay ahead of them all, and urge them to be better mice so they could rise up to that area where he was and see what he could see. He no longer wanted to warn them of cats and broken limbs, although he would if they asked.What he really wanted to do was move on out into that huge territory and experience all the other lakes (higher planets). But it was hard leaving his family. He had been with them for so long and would miss them, but oh, how exciting these new places

176

looked and how beautiful! If only he could somehow stay in touch with his family.Then he was met by a wise old mouse who told him he could stay in touch by making contact with one special mouse (a chela or student) down on the old lake and telling him his plans and asking him to communicate his experiences to the rest of the mice. He waited at the top of the sheer rock cliff until his contact with one special mouse was secure and now he is moving on.You see, in order to secure that contact, he had to leave a small part of his energy in that special mouse’s body, so he is part of the special mouse and will always be. Some other mice receive a small part of energy from others, but this is not very common. Most other mice that can communicate are working from the area above the lake (astral planes). He has moved on, therefore his special mouse has also moved on. What he sees and experiences in the rest of that huge territory (outer space) will be seen and experienced by his special mouse also and hopefully will help all those mice imprisoned on the first lake we spoke about.He does know most of how the help was given to those mice on that first lake who had merely been water skippers before (animal/men or cavemen). They received help in the form of birds (UFO’s) that flew into the area from the large outside territory. These birds still fly over that lake watching and helping and he is one of them, but most of his time is spent in the outer reaches. He has a battalion of higher beings under him who help him work with and help those on that lake who are in his charge. He gives most of his orders and duties to others to implement but it is all under his direction.He knew that he had had his last time (last reincarnation) on that “lake” when he continued to rise. Now he is free of the earth plane and the earth’s total system and is on “vacation” before starting a new round of duties. He has been promoted and will no

177

longer be in contact with as many on the earth plane, only those who go with him through their bond. There will be one taking over the work he did to help that first “lake” and he will do a good job. This first mouse has other “lakes to explore.”

Channeling is a Normal Stage of Evolution

When the Sparks entered the physical bodies it was never intended that they should lose contact with the main body of the Creator God that stayed in the higher realms. The plan was to always have open lines of communication. Channeling is part of the plan as it allows this communication to take place. Therefore, channeling is a natural, normal stage of evolution for humanity, whose time has come.

Channeling takes many different forms with many different people. It won’t always be as words being heard in your head or thought pictures. It could come just as thoughts. There are others who bring this channel through the arts, who channel inspiration from the higher realms into their paintings, into their music, and most definitely into theatrical performances.

The ability to do channeling was looked upon as witchcraft for many centuries, even to the point of “burning at the stake” those who did this. There were not as many highly evolved souls in the other dimensions, at that time, to respond with intelligence.

178

Therefore, some who could contact other dimensions did so with a lower level of evolved souls and this is why it was looked on as witchcraft. As progress is made on the earth plane, so also in the “voice within” able to contact more intelligent thoughts and ideas.

Most children being born today will have the channel readily able to open with proper education. Herein lies the only control factor of this stage of evolution – education as to the proper use of the ability to channel. This is the ability to communicate with your inner being – the unseen parts of you that make up the total you.

The TrinityThe Kingdom of God is within and can be reached by channeling the trinity. The trinity that the churches have talked about for so long is made up of the large, all-encompassing mind of the Creator, (Father); the fragmented mind of humans, (Son); and the conglomerate mind of all we have ever been - the micro men that is inside our mind

(Holy Ghost). To explain further, The trinity consists of the entities own mind, which is his animal-based brain, infiltrated by thoughts from the divine spark. That’s one part of the trinity. The conglomerate mind is another part of the trinity. This consists of the teachers and guides – entities who have already crossed over and are further ahead on the path than we are – who have reached back to help. They are a living, human being in the unmanifested state. You are a living, human being in the manifested state. This is two parts of the trinity. The third part is the divine mind, the Creator God.

Intuition Is Forerunner To Channeling

179

When one gets a subtle feeling, or some other subtle communication, this is intuition and is a forerunner of channeling. The intuition needs to be worked on and developed and will eventually turn into actual channeling. You can’t say that intuition is a form of channeling but rather that it is a forerunner of the actual process of channeling. Intuition has grown out of instinct of the animal-based brain and is a sign of the beginning influence of the soul on the incarnation.

Humans Are Transformers Between Physical Matter and Ethereal MatterChanneling is an absolutely normal function for human beings. Humans are the link between twodifferent manifestations of the Creator’s energy. There are three dimensions lower than the human and three higher. The first seven planets are used for these

manifestations of energy. The merging of the lower and higher takes place in the middle kingdom, the Biological, on the middle planet of the seven which is earth. As the link between the lower and higher, channeling is of both spiritual and physical importance. It is the line of relationship running through all the kingdoms tying them together and is of a twofold nature. One aspect of it is ESP and intuition which is the natural link-up between kingdoms. The other aspect is the channeling that feeds into the human being from the higher dimensions.

Psychic PhenomenaThere is a distinct difference in channels because channeling is based on a mathematical, progression of absolute perfection. When the channel first opens it must work its way up through the manifested ways of channeling to the unmanifested ways. The first way involves

180

psychic phenomena, not only human to human, but also human to animal (Biological Kingdom), human to plant, (Botanical Kingdom) and human to mineral (Geological Kingdom.) The second way is mind to mind phenomena, human to Prismatic Kingdom, human to Atmospheric Kingdom and human to Astronomical Kingdom.

Alpha And Beta Waves The channels that use beta waves are the lower kingdom channels. These waves are radiations of the animal-based brain and radiate upward from the lower kingdoms. Those who use alpha waves are the higher kingdom channels. These waves are radiations of the Divine Mind and radiate downward from the higher kingdoms. Both manifest in the human

being. A channel will work from the one state into the next if they continue growing and evolving and raising their consciousness.

First Step - No Contact With ChannelThe first crack in a person’s seed core is the most important, because this must take place before any other steps can follow. It takes different forms for some than others. In some it is precipitated by an accident to the physical body. In others it is brought on quickly by a mental blow of some sort – a divorce, loss of a loved one, loss of a job,

betrayal by a friend, etc. In others it is a long slow process of deterioration, not only of the physical body, but also of the mental boredom that triggers the crack in the seed core as a life-saving maneuver, instigated by a person’s own soul. This first step has no other duty but is the most important.

The Second Step - No Contact With ChannelThe study in your own university will take many different forms – meditation, reflection, regression and expression, to name a few. Meditation is just sitting quietly and listening to

181

the little voice within you. Reflection should be done before you drop off to sleep, reviewing the day’s events. Another step would be just plain study on all phases of the search that interests you and drawing conclusions as to what you feel are truths for you and those that you are questioning, plus the continued deep searching of your own attitudes.

Third Plane Contact - Astral Plane ContactThe astral plane is the part of the path that is the reason the churches are so against the inner contact, or channeling. No one understood this astral plane and it was thought that delving into the inner life caused one to go mad - that it was satanic and the work of the devil. It was forbidden and discouraged and all growth towards

truly finding their inner being was stunted. It must be explained here that the astral plane is backwards from the earth’s twelve planes because it is a reflection. The first point of contact will be level twelve. The person must continue climbing the astral plane, which is going backwards from level twelve to level three until he breaks free to the fourth plane where inner “spacemen,” accredited teachers and guides, are waiting to help him.

Fourth Plane Contact - Inner “Spacemen” - Teachers And GuidesWhen you reach this point and persevere you will have a “breakthrough” totally into the fourth dimension, and contact the true record of growth accomplished by the whole spark being held by your twin soul. Next would then be contact with the teachers and guides - past incarnations of yours. Even

though they’re further ahead than you they may not be as intelligent as you. They have been through the earth plane experience but because of the progress made on the earth plane, which has been quite phenomenal, they have never experienced many of the things that you have. They would do better guiding you on things such as a good direction for you to go in your job, or

182

something like that, but you can’t nail them down to little everyday items, because they are not going to be as qualified to make some of those decisions as you are.

Fifth Plane Contact - Twin SoulThis stage of growth is very quickly passed through and as you climb the twelve divisions oflevel five, you come more in tune with your twin and eventually join in soul and body cooperation. In other words, your octave higher twin reflection, (the soul), begins to be able to influence your daily life with

good, positive thoughts. You then merge with the oversoul (which is the mind of the Creator) on the true fifth dimension, the ethereal realm of five for a healing that manifests itself on the earth plane as a happy, loving part of the all, a feeling of being one with the Creator and loving everyone and everything. This is where most people stop their growth. They believe they have perfected themselves and quit. This is the “heaven” that the churches teach is our goal.

Sixth Plane Contact - Outer “Spacemen” - Teachers And GuidesBut if one perseveres again he will enter the sixth plane. This is usually caused by frustration after realizing that the feeling of oneness wasn’t quite as fulfilling as you thought. It depends on the level or tone you entered on as to whether you are still reviewing or if you are investigating new

territory for you. No matter, you find yourself going off alone, leaving those with whom, shortly before, you felt so much communion with – be it study groups, cults, churches or whatever, and exploring all kinds of new ideas for you. You don’t need to have anyone else because you and your twin are one by this time and you feel very whole when alone and very secure in your spiritual understanding.

183

Seventh Plane Contact - Teaching GroupsThis will then move you to the seventh plane where you begin to work towards being a teacher yourself. This applies both exoterically and esoterically from plane six on. Up until that time there was a division between exoteric and esoteric life, but not from plane six on. There is harmony and oneness as the whole spark. Now this is not

total synthesization because that cannot happen until the higher planes where the next convolution into your seedcore takes place.

Old Way of ChannelingTrance channeling is the “old world” method of channeling. The “new age” method of channeling is conscious channeling. In the old method, the person doing the channeling – the medium – stepped out of the body and let the one coming through use the body. This was mostly done by entities on the astral plane because they

have forms as large as those of us on the earth plane. Trance channeling is not to go into the new millennium. This is not the correct way to handle channeling. Those who go into a trance are not doing anything different than the mediums with their crystal balls did in the circus many decades ago. This is not what is wanted. Those people teaching trance channeling are doing a disservice to others and need to understand this so they themselves will grow past what it is they are doing and not encourage others to do it this way. There will be much karma involved for one teaching others “old world” methods.

New Way of ChannelingWhen channeling is done on the advanced planes, it is through correct esoteric means of using the Micro Universe. This means the

184

entity coming through is no bigger in size on the earth plane than a pin point. The one doing the channeling on the earth plane, (the medium) does not need to vacate the body to allow one this size to come through. They merely “stand behind” the one doing the channeling, if you will. They are still in the body and the switch can be made back and forth from one to the other. Eventually the blending is completed by the higher entity intertwining with the cells of the body and “taking up permanent residence there.” This is when total synthesization has been achieved and the medium is in contact with the God Within. The medium will then be talking to the cells of his or her own body. This is the goal. Each one on the earth plane will have their God Within in residence in the body and be operating through divine guidance at all times.

God Compared to a Whipped Cream Salad


186

Whipped Cream Salad

Yes, there is a God, a powerful, all-pervading energy whose presence is everywhere in everything. It is an energy field filled with thoughts so potent they are dangerous in the wrong hands and used for the wrong purpose. It is all so complicated that one is at a loss as to how to pull it all together for explanation.

To explain God in a very simple manner, please picture a whipped cream fruit salad. God is the mixture in which all else takes place, the ingredient without which there would be nothing. Without the whipped cream as the holding ingredient, all parts of the salad would fall apart.

The fruit are individual themselves in the whipped cream; they still retain their taste and characteristics, but without the whipped cream they have little relationship to each other, except for the fact that they are all fruit. God is the agent that bonds all together into a finished product.

At the bottom of the bowl, the energy (whipped cream) is bubbling and churning (picture a blender.) The different fruits are

187

right on top of this bubbling and every so often an extremely strong bubble will be right under one piece of fruit, say a cherry or a grape.

The bubble will propel this piece of fruit to the surface where it will float in one position (say the stem is up on the cherry) even though it is moving around the bowl, unless a strong bubble pops to the surface beside it.

This will cause it to shift its position so the stem points a slightly different direction. It will stay afloat until the time when an extremely strong pull of suction from below will pull it under.

The bubbling at the bottom of the bowl, (spinning blades of the blender), is the center of God, the true center of our universe. We are

188

like the pieces of fruit on the surface of the whipped cream going away from the bubbles. It is all an action of ebb and flow. We are never really away from God, because we are always in the whipped cream mixture.

When picturing the universe as a bowl of whipped cream salad the size of a football field, one should picture earth as one tiny cherry. See this football field inflated, as a football itself is and in the center visualize the bubble making machine. It is constantly at work; it never stops its action, so things it affects must always be changing.

If a picture were drawn of the universe thusly, there would be groups of fruit clumped together because one burst of bubbles shot them all to the surface at one time and this determines their floating position as they circulate around the football field. This is an action that is never sensed by one riding on the cherry because the clumps

189

of fruit all stay in their same relationship to each other in their smaller cycles. A new burst of bubbles or even just one bubble can shift one of the pieces of fruit a slight bit and affect the others a slight bit.

In the whipped cream there are whirlpools formed by a spinning fruit,

say a large peach, which pulls the smaller fruit into its whirlpool action and causes the smaller fruit to spin around the peach while they are all revolving around the football field. The exact nature of this bubble machine can be compared to the hydrogen atom that collapsed into the black hole.The overall picture is one of the universe in constant motion. When a star sinks into a black hole (sucked under by a bubble in the whipped cream), it does not disintegrate to be no more. It simply waits with the rest of the bubbles to be popped to the surface again in a different time and place. When it does pop to the surface again, it must go through a cooling period. When it has cooled it starts the process of evolution all over again. There is no destruction of the stars, just appearances and disappearances.

The football field sized universe with earth as a cherry and the sun as a peach, perhaps a grapefruit would be a better size comparison for the sun, are all part of the same solar system.

190

There are many solar systems in our galaxy and there are many, many galaxies, each with many solar systems.

The Mind Compared to a Phonograph RecordThis will be an attempt to give a chronological description of what takes place in the process of the birth of a human form and its habitation by a divine being. When the term divine being is used it designates any part of the process that comes from the spiritual evolution versus physical evolution. When the animal-based brain is referred

to it relates to any part of the process that comes through physical evolution.Please keep in mind that humans are following a double evolutionary track. They are a total mixture of the three lower kingdoms and the three higher kingdoms when they have completed the total process of synthesization, all three stages of it.In the beginning is an animal form. This form is preprogrammed through the cellular structure of the physical body with the coding in the cells as to what it will grow and mature into. This is true for all parts of the body except the pineal gland. This gland is left blank during the process of forming the body during the nine months of pregnancy. It is reserved for the incarnating spirit. Animals do not have this gland. It developed as a result of the insemination experiments on the animals. Those on other planets that have physical life forms have this gland so a combination of genes was used in their insemination experiments to allow this gland to develop in the restructured forms. Because it was not part of animal, or physical, evolution it was not pre-patterned or coded with what it would become – what part of the overall human it would develop into.

193

This pineal gland is the home of the incarnating spirit. The physical form being formed and given birth to has developed, according to the pre-set coding, a brain, an organ that is capable of controlling the body functions – a motor center. This brain does have a control center for keeping track of all its duties. This could be termed a mind in a way, but perhaps that term should not be used here due to a different connotation put on it by humankind. It will just be called it the motor control center. Therefore, physical evolution has brought forth a brain with a motor control center. The combination of these two, the organ and its functioning mechanism, is what is referred to as the animal-based brain when speaking of the baby and child up to the age of four. At the age of four the pineal gland becomes activated. It can become very activated or sluggishly activated. The nutrition of the form can control this process. When the pineal gland becomes activated, it is the first stirring of the half of the soul that entered the body either before or just after birth.When a soul enters the form it could be compared it to one leaving our plane at death. Those on the other side mourn for him as he will be missed. Also they know that he will be in a deep sleep during much of the first four years. They will have minimal contact with him, just a little at night, but very little at this stage as it is not needed. This is a period of preparation for the soul for the trying life on the earth plane that he is facing. It is a time for regrouping his thoughts on the purpose of the incarnation and going over the different aspects he chose and formulating his thinking about the type of personality he would like to see brought forth. In other words, he plans what he will do when he becomes activated. The same thing happens in reverse when we leave the earth plane. We sleep and rest and when we start waking up we find ourselves reviewing all that took place in that life and determining what was good and what was bad, what worked and what didn’t work. Sometimes an entity is very upset over what took place in the life that threw off his plans. Those on

194

the other side comfort as best they can and then the education process begins for the next try.On the earth plane, the new born babe will go through doubt and torment during the first six weeks because he is fully activated at this time due to non-activation of the control center of the brain. This control center does not at this point control body functions. They are an act of instinct for the first six weeks. The old soul who entered the body is in full consciousness for the first six weeks but goes into the hibernation stage at the time the motor control center begins functioning. But for the first six weeks this old soul goes through doubt and torment as to what it has gotten itself into. Not all of them do this, some are quite content and pleased at the form they have entered and it's potential for allowing them to experience what they planned. These are happy babies, the others are fussy babies, but both of them go into the hibernation stage.When the motor control center becomes activated it could be considered the beginning of forming the mind. It would probably be best to use this term after all, because there is no better way to describe the process. The mind is a “thing” that has so physical substance in the body. It is not able to be seen at any stage of its being. It is a thought form, perhaps is the best way to put it, but this is not exactly right either. It is really an electrical field, or a force field that has thought impressions put into it. Picture it, for understanding, as a phonograph record that has a surface that can be easily impressed. This surface is divided into different sections. One section is for use by the motor control center, the next section is for use by the soul in incarnation, the next by the soul on the inner planes. The overall phonograph record is then for use by the overshadowing spirit. This is the mind that is being described. The motor control center uses the phonograph record to impress physical actions such as walking, eating, elimination of waste, playing the piano, swimming, any of the physical body

195

functions that are controlled by the motor center of nerves and muscles. The motor control center has total use of this mind until the age of four. At that time the pineal gland becomes activated and begins refining and polishing the basic skills set by the motor control center. It takes these basic skills and determines how to best cultivate them for use by the personality he would like to shape out of the raw skills turned over to him by the motor control center. This is the process of forming the personality. The personality, then, is part of the mind, the make-believe phonograph record, which is all part of the animal-based brain.The personality then becomes a separate section of the phonograph record from the motor control functions, but these functions have been sharpened and refined by the soul so are more highly usable, more able to function on their own without the heavy hand of the motor control center. They are eventually interwoven with the personality which is almost like a puffy cloud above the phonograph record, which is representing the mind. The personality is the essence of the motor control center and the soul in incarnation, but is separate from the thought processes of the mind at this time. The soul in incarnation has an area of this phonograph record that is all his own little area. He transferred here the stuff he brought with him that has been in hibernation in the pineal gland. This leaves the pineal gland empty once again. The soul in incarnation has moved out. He has moved his baggage to a new apartment in the phonograph record or the mind. Now we have the thought process part of the mind well established but separate from the personality. This personality has, meanwhile, continued to hone and sharpen the skills that have moved out of the motor control center. These skills then begin combining with the thought process part of the mind, which is the incarnated soul, remember, and they work in harness towards the first stage of synthesization, the soul-infused personality.

196

Meanwhile, the empty pineal gland has been inhabited by the half of soul not in incarnation. There may be some misunderstanding here. Perhaps the following will help clear it up. Both halves of the soul actually enter the body at birth or shortly before or shortly after. When it comes time for the half that will incarnate to move into the mind, or the phonograph record that is part of the physical brain of the animal form, the half that is to stay on the inner planes remains in the pineal gland. It does its job of replacing shrinking animal cellular structure with its own essence, the God substance, an ethereal matter, which is also what the “mind” is at this time. The half of the soul on the inner planes is in the physical form from the beginning. The pineal gland is a gland that secretes the ethereal substance to all the cells through the blood stream.Back to our course on the brain. The soul-infused personality is now able to reach back into the thought section of the mind or phonograph record and retrieve the stuff the incarnated soul stored there as what it wanted to draw on to help this lifetime. It has managed to instill some of the thought it brought with it into the personality and has been able to instill enough that it gives the personality not only the ability, but also the desire to retrieve the rest of the baggage, in order to learn more about itself. This is the process leading to the second stage of synthesization.While all of this is taking place the motor control center of the animal-based brain is also growing, not only larger physically, but also stronger mentally. What is meant by this is the portion of the phonograph record that it used has developed its own thinking capacity due to the motor control duties having moved up to the fluffy personality. This allows it to reach back into the cellular structure of the animal-based brain and retrieve its own set of memories through the cells of physical matter. These cells are retreating due to the influence of the incarnated soul. These memories of animal evolution come to the surface, up through

197

the brain stem where they gather when retreating from the active cells of the body. They enter into conflict with the thought section of the phonograph record or mind that the incarnated soul is using. There is a battle for control of the space on the phonograph record. At this time, contact with the half of the soul on the inner planes is imperative and this is the process worked on diligently by the incarnated soul in its battle with the animal cellular memories. This whole process lasts through mind dimension levels 4-5-6. The personality goes through agony over the battle taking place and becomes an emotional cripple at times due to the battle. It is a time that an emotional release by the soul is very important. This is when the agonies of the soul need to be released through some form of art. As the animal cellular memories are using the physical vehicles for their expression and release at this stage the soul has no means of expression and is being repressed. The release of tension through the arts can help the incarnated soul make contact, through the fog and smoke of the battleground (illusion), with the half of the soul on the inner planes, in the pineal gland. There is a breakthrough made finally and the two combine forces and open up a connection telepathically with, not only each other, but also with the teachers and guides who are nested inside the half of soul on the inner planes. This opens up the whole area of mind dimension levels 7-8-9 and gains control of the mind or phonograph record for the use of the two halves of the soul. They have conquered the “dweller within” (referring to an Alice Bailey/Djwal Kuhl figure of speech) and the battlefield is theirs, the total area or surface of the mind or phonograph record. But remember, the personality is floating above this record. The personality meanwhile has watched the battle and has grown and evolved while all this is taking place. When the battle ends and the two halves are joined, the personality begins riding the clouds out further away from the phonograph record and allows the

198

intelligent reasoning mind to be built on the phonograph record through the advice and wisdom of all that has been opened up through the access of the half of soul on the inner planes. This personality absorbs all of the spiritual wonder as though from an overview and actually begins to take on the aura of the blended halves of the soul. This personality still has the original qualities from the animal-based brain that control the body functions and motor skills. When the personality begins to rise and draw on the qualities of the blended soul, then the physical actions that were control in the beginning by the motor control center rise even further away from the need to have of control by any part of the physical body. This allows for self-healing and eventually would allow physical action by the use of the mind which is where the blended half of the soul is. This is done by the fluffy personality permeating the mind. It is all a very complicated process. The personality eventually separates off another puff of energy that is the aura of the blended soul, separate from the personality. This aura has no part of animal evolution left in it and this is what is meant by the term overshadowing spirit. It is total spiritual energy that is a combination of the two halves of the soul along with the spiritual qualities that were instilled in the personality along the way. It is the individual overshadowing spirit of that entity because it has the essence of the soul and the personality both in it. The overshadowing spirit is an essence.

The Soul Compared to a Video RecorderThe area of the inner planes of our past incarnations is where our previous lifetimes will be found. This area is the Akashic Records room of the inner planes and is between the fourth and fifth dimensional mind levels. Our previous lifetimes are stored there. The total

199

lifetimes are on micro-film inside our brain similar to our VCR machines, but they are also still in time and space. They can relate back to us knowledge they gained in previous lifetimes to help us in this life. They will eventually consolidate with us all the good knowledge they gained eventually and then the other half will be joined with us.The DNA codes in the physical body are “pictures” taken by the soul. Picture the soul as a video recorder, if you will. It keeps a running “movie” of each life. This soul acts as a film editor when each new incarnation is being planned as far as choosing what events can and should be put at the beginning of the film. These events would then be available for the entity to draw from as strengths gained in certain areas in previous lives. This will help him accomplish his goals in the new life. But horrible, disastrous events that are stored in this film have a way of overpowering the soul’s editing and pushing their way to the foreground at the beginning of the recorded film. There is no way to ever erase these events, and when they come forward in a second life, the photograph is reinforced and becomes even stronger.This film editor (soul) has no recourse to erasures. He must deal with all film records. Those fearful events had an emotional reaction tied to them and this is where the soul is – in the emotional body. The soul is director of all picture taking so these fearful pictures not only get photographed onto the seedcore, but are photographed with high intensity film and are very powerful. The seedcore then has these pictures usually on the surface. The next time it enters and proceeds to form a new personality, these fears are already a part of this one's life.

200

Genes Compared to a RobotGenes come back through reincarnation – atomic substance of the mother’s body with the father’s genes make up the baby’s genes. Semen transmits the photograph of the father to atomic tissue of the mother and forms the pituitary gland. Scientific studies can be made to prove this reincarnation of the divine spark. (I, Norma, saw a vision of it being

done in a dish in a lab, the same way they do in vitro experiments.) The genes or pictures of the mother’s present life are present in the body of the baby and also those of the present father. They will be referred to as thought-pictures instead of genes in this discourse. The parent’s thought-pictures are necessarily what needs to be changed or raised into a higher state of being to match the higher vibratory rate of the thought-pictures brought into the body when the soul enters. Half of this soul takes up residence in the new personality and half takes up residence in the material passed through physical evolution. Perhaps the following analogy here will help.Let us consider a doll. This doll is going to become a robot through the inserting of a pre-programmed board that is inserted into the head. The control of this board is in the hands of the one controlling the computer set-up – in other words, the incarnating soul. The board has two distinct operating channels or programs in it. The builder of this system decides to split the controller into two and allow one part of the controller to have control over one half of the circuits and the other half to control the rest of the circuits. When this is accomplished, the builder of the robot decides to make the robot big enough to enable the two halves of

201

the controller to both enter the robot and do the control from inside. One half works with allowing the robot to move about and perform functions. The other half of the controller simply oversees the total operation as far as the circuitry and its maintenance goes. When the part controlling the movements runs into a problem it must turn to the part controlling the circuitry. The part learning to walk and perform tasks is controlled by the physical genes. The part controlling the circuitry is the divine genes.When the part controlling movement has reached an end to what it can accomplish, it turns to the part controlling the circuitry and asks permission for the use of more of the circuits under the control of that half. This is when the joining of the two halves of the spark comes about to form a whole soul. It can never give all the remaining circuits to the part learning movement until it is sure there will never be any need for repair or maintenance or rebuilding again. Therefore it gives up half of the circuits it was holding in the overview section. This would compare to the first stage of blending, that of the physical body and the half of the spark in incarnation. This is the longest stage of a human’s life. This part of the new circuits from the overseer must do such an excellent job of adding more motion and task performing capabilities to this robot that it is a smooth functioning robot. Then it is left in this state for a period of time to test durability and whether or not there is going to be a malfunction. When it is determined that all is well, the rest of the circuits held in reserve will be given up for the use of the robot and total synthesization is accomplished. To relate this to your parent’s genes, they are the half of circuitry used in the beginning to learn to walk and perform tasks. The other half of the circuitry board is that of the entering spirit. In the beginning, the first six weeks of life the half controlling the circuitry in an overview is in full control. It has to “light the pilot light” under the other half, you might say, to get it started. After

202

all it is the control half watching closely for breakdown and malfunctions in the circuit board. After about six weeks the half of the board controlling learning tasks comes into action and the half controlling the circuitry retires into the creative channel or the circuits themselves in the board. This is referred to as “hibernation.” When this part of the board is split, the half of the soul that will help the physical genes is what will make up the new personality of this incarnation. As it begins to have an influence, part of the circuitry of the first part of the board has to “retire” so the new circuits can use these wires. These then go into the hibernation of the circuitry of the overview part of the board. They must then work in cooperation with the rest of the controlling circuitry and become raised in vibration so as to blend with this circuitry. This will enable them to be used for continual updating of the first half of the board – to be able to keep feeding it new circuits to use as it grows past the original ones brought by the soul. The material of the board never has any more added to it, it is used over and over on a higher level of vibrations each time.I, Norma, had a rebirthing experience once about the little old lady in a shawl, hunched over, that was blocking my channel. It seemed to be my mother or grandmother, but was simply the original circuitry that has to increase their vibratory field to allow the future circuits to be able to be passed to the learning and growing new personality. This stage of progress is connected with the opening of the third eye, which is part of the controlling circuitry, and the entrance of a Master teacher.

Restoration of Frozen Human Compared to Birth of Human FetusWhen, or if, a human is frozen on the earth plane, the ethereal body freezes also. If this body were allowed to remain

203

in this state long enough, not moved and no light being shown on it, it would eventually return to life. The ethereal body would instigate a vibration that would eventually work its way to the physical body which, at the precisely correct time, would then need for the temperature to be restored very slowly, timed in perfect conjunction with the awakening vibration in the ethereal body. This never has happened; therefore the ethereal body withdraws and returns to the inner planes. But this is always the process when a human being is frozen alive on the earth plane. Whether in an avalanche or in freezing water or whatever the circumstances, the ethereal body, the soul, is frozen also and must wait out the time span necessary for the vibration to begin. Then, if circumstances are so that the physical body is able to be restored, so also will the ethereal body and soul manifest once again on the earth plane, without returning to the inner planes.As given, this has never happened so the ethereal body withdraws to the inner planes. The time necessary depends on the evolutionary standing of the soul. A normally evolved person would require about nine months for the vibration to begin, the same as the gestation period for a fetus. The ethereal body, you might say, goes into a similar set of circumstances awaiting birth or rebirth. A fetus awaits the vibration that will begin the birth process for it. If the physical form of the fetus does not exit the womb and breathe life of physical matter, the ethereal body/soul withdraws. The same thing happens with the frozen entity. If the physical form does not exit the frozen state at the time that the vibration begins, the ethereal form/soul will withdraw.

Testing of Blood Compared to a Rose In the future our blood will be tested to find its musical vibration for purposes of

204

healing. The following analogy will help explain more fully what it is that we will be testing in the blood.Please picture a rose, say a beautiful pink rose. This rose gives off perfume that all can smell. It radiates its color at the same time. The petals are solid and can be ground up for other uses. The center of the rose can also be used. There is a stem going down to the ground that has fluid flowing through the stem feeding the rose, nourishing it. The fluid that is being carried into the rose has a vibration that comes from the seed core of the rose bush. This vibration was preprogrammed into the bush when roses came into existence, as an evolutionary marriage between thorn bushes and buttercups. From then on evolution took over. The first rose, therefore was of a yellow color, Regardless, the other colors came about due to evolutionary changes in the root systems. These changes were vibratory in nature. Some of the changes that came were as a result of changing the soil; some were from changing the location which changed the grids under which they grew. It is all very complicated. Each time a different vibration gave forth a different color of rose, which then had a different shape to the petals and a slightly different conformation in the center. Now as the rose grows this vibration is fed into the bloom through the fluid in the stem. Each certain vibratory fluid will produce a different color and shape of rose which, in turn, is susceptible to different climates, different astrological factors, etc. Also, through harmony of vibration of this fluid the rose bushes can be crossed and new strains of blooms can be fashioned. These hybrids are on the next level up as far as evolutionary standing because they are based on harmony, not on a single toned vibratory rate.This is a picture of what is taking place in humanity. It is, of course, a very slow process. The stage that is taking place now is the last of the single tone vibratory rates of the blood and the new hybrids are being born, one or two here, one there, very intermittent. This is coming about due to a decrease in the atoms available to our planet for forming the DNA structure of humans.

205

Also those with the vibration of the last octave are those prone to the HIV positive status. The vibrations of the fluid in the stem are what will be measured in the blood. This vibration cannot be seen. It is an electrical current, but it is fourth dimensional electricity. The only way to cross the threshold between dimensions with anything approaching success is to use music as the translator. Therefore, experiments could be done on plant fluids first rather than blood. Any plant fluid – the sap of trees, etc. will show the same vibration for the same kind of tree and a different vibration for a different strain of the same family of tree, such as maple. This would be the easiest way to do the experimenting that will go into finding the musical tone of each person’s blood. Using the sap from trees would not only be an easier way but also a less expensive way to begin determining methods needed to allow this fluid to be transformed into music. The vibration of the plant fluid is on a different octave of evolution than the humans. Therefore, it should show up as a much lower tone on the musical pitches.

In The BeginningLyrics from the "The Creation Suite” by Norma

208

Beginning

It is I who see all From a viewpoint high aboveA swirling cloud of energyWith thoughts of truth and love.

I have legions I employTo get many tasks doneI am the energy for your universeI am your Sun, I am your Son.

Birth

Gases swirled and explodedRaining fire and ashes down onto Earth below

209

As we watched hushed and silentHe is our Sun.

The power and the glory of God Will be forever He is our Sun, He is our Son.

Development

The planets moved away from their birthplaceAnd as the first one was lifted and on its ownIt was beautiful to seeLike a babe taking its first stepThis first born Son, this first born Son.

210

As each moved off into the cosmosThe silence was broken by a musical toneThe Spirit Mind was still connected to each one, through a tiny lineThis is the way He sends His thoughts down, to all His childrenThey were each a Sun, they were a Son.

Growth

The Creator’s thoughts formedInto sunsets and dawnsThey were His SunsThey were all His Sons.

They gathered two by two in silenceThen joined in purity

211

And joined in harmonyA chorus strong and beautiful to see.

Frustration

Suddenly came discontentThen came the stormsWinds started howlingRain came pouring down

The lightning flashedThe storms grew angrierWith the power and glory of our Sun

The thunder rolled, the lightning flashed and reached outAs each grew larger, stronger, hotter

212

Reaching further, growing meaner, tensions building, tempers growingThen the lightning bolts exploded, sizzled, sparks drifted down.

Solution

As the fire came raining downEverything was coveredFirst the ground was washed all overWith a light and glistening rainOver which God hovered

Next came the coatingOn all the trees and beautiful flowersGiving them luster of their ownSo they could reflect the perfect lightOf their only Sun.

Then came the fire and gloryThat shattered into sparks that glowedAnd found their home in us.

Thankfulness

213

We were really quite blessedTo receive this loveThis love from our father.

What a most glorious sightWe must perfect our soulsSo we can return to our Father.

Our Creator

214

The power and the gloryThe fire and the beautyThe pain and the love.

The wonder of Him who adored usFrom His home aboveYou are His son, you are each His son.

Finding GodPoem by Norma

Who needs a God sitting on a throneWith capes of fur and crown of gold?Not I, cried an enlightened fewTo whom the truth had been told.

He is not up in the sky where you lookAnd the more you search in vain,The farther away He will seem to beAnd the deeper your feeling of pain.

Bring Him out of the vastness of space

Bring him back down to earth. This is where you’ll find God, my

friend He’s been with you since birth.

For God is your own soul, dear one Knowing this, all will fall in place, If you put Him on a throne, my friend

You’ll be worshipping your very own face.

Is this what you want, one to lean on?Won’t you listen for what rings true?Search yourself and find Him insideNot on a cloud, but deep within you.

The Hours Past MidnightPoem by Norma

218

Through the long hours past midnightI sense a sad feeling of despair.It reaches its fingers out to meAnd seems to hang there in the air.

The hours in the space before dawnSomehow are the worst to surmount,This is when a presence is feltAnd I find even the seconds count.

To ease my ever straining eyesThat can’t seem to picture its face,I open them up wide and stareAnd try to draw it out of space.

Through the mists of fog at sunriseIts voice floats towards my ears,Then suddenly the day finally startsAnd the morning sun erases my fears.

Inner BeingPoem by Norma

I saw you thereStanding on the stair

You judged me notMy faults forgot.

I felt much love219

Come down from aboveAs you held out your handI became the “I am.”

Then you filled my being with lightI seemed strong and full of mightI’ll never be alone againWe’ll walk hand in hand among men.

No more worry and doubtAbout “What if others find me out?”It matters not if they knowWho cares if my soul does show?

I am loved and honored and trueTo be one with youTogether we’ll walk on

Facing each new dawn.

Only As Long As We Do No HarmPoem by Norma

This is how it should beEach one of us is freeBut only as long as we do no wrongAnd let others sail their own sea.

All have the right to thinkAnd all have the right to drinkBut only as long as we do no wrongAnd cause no others to sink

We can be open and friendlyAnd laugh and love with glee

220

But only as long as we do no wrongAnd cause others no disharmony.

When all is said and all is doneWe’ll still, each of us, have wonBut only as long as we do no wrongAnd our harm to others is none.

Why is this so hard to do?To let others to themselves be true?And only as long as we do no wrongCan we say that all of us grew.

Care About OthersPoem by Norma

There’s a feeling of love in the airThat brings us dreams so fair Being one with our maker, and also each otherShowing us why we must care.

Care about what happens to othersAnd never think of them as “bothers”When all’s said and done, there’s not much fun

To be had when we all have our “druthers.”

“Share and share alike,” some people sayThis isn’t the game we should play

221

While one is a saint, the next one sure “ain’t:As far as their actions each day.

There must be a way that is rightTo help all live in the lightBut what we forget, is some people won’t letThe light shine on their plight.

They’ll let the rest of us downIf a new way’s not soon foundTo help them align, so their light will shineThen joy and peace can abound.

As down life's path we walkWe listen to others and talkWhat each has to say, is a clue to the wayOf how this one is likely to sulk.

Whenever things go wrongThen each should hum a songAll worry and woe, will soon meet their foeCause in music they just don’t belong.

When all is said and doneThere is really just one

222

The Creator is there, and wants us to shareCause all together we are His Son.

One Big WorldLyrics from the song “One Big World” by Norma

We’ll have us one big world,That’s like a lovely flower garden you see.We’re part of one big bouquet of flowers,We’re one big family.

Flow’rs have beauty, humility, Dignity, serenity,All the traits found in humanity.Some are proud, some are lonely,Some are strong, others weak,But without them life would be quite bleak.

They grow on mountains, in the desert,In the jungle, or even wild.And they all need loving like a tiny child.They grow on vines, and even trees,Some on bushes, and some on weeds.But when they fade they all will leave their seeds.

And we’ll still have one big world,We’ll have a big bouquet of flowers you seeHere on this lovely planet earth,

223

The best in our galaxy.

We’ll Walk in LoveLyrics from the song “We’ll Walk in Love” by Norma

We’ll walk in the light of Christ love all yearAnd give of ourselves with nothing to fear.And as we reach out with love as a feastWe’ll start a new age with a vision of peace

He will come to teach us pure love.We’ll see the light of the daystar abovePeace will descend in the form of a doveAnd we’ll walk in love, brotherly love, Christ's pure love.

At the beginning of each new ageThe good earth is sent a very wise sageAnd new age disciples were sent to teach loveThey’ll be filled with Christ love through pow’r from above.

He will come to teach us pure love.We’ll see the light of the daystar aboveAnd peace will descend in the form of a doveAnd we’ll walk in love, brotherly love, Christ's pure love.

Talk to Each Otherby Norma

224

While drivin' in the city todayI passed a poor old woman

I stopped my car when I saw her liftThe lid of a garbage can

She reached inside a paper bag

Searchin' for a bite to eat

I wanted to help so I talked to her

She was livin' out on the street.

We’ve got to Talk to Each Other, one on oneFather, daughter, mother and son

225

Talk To Each Other, race to race Talk To Each Other, face to face.

Talk to each other, Just Talk to each other Talk to each other, Just Talk…

Goin' downtown I passed a schoolEveryone was outside cryin'

One of the boys had shot anotherAnd now this kid was dyin'.

Red lights flashed and sirens screamedAs the white coats took away their friend

I heard one kid say, “Nothin' changes, So I ain’t comin' back again.”

226



Talk to each other, Just Talk to each other

Talk to each other, Just Talk…

There are times when I feel ashamed And there’s times I’ve even cried

I don’t know what I can do But at least I’ve got to try.


227


Talk to each other, Just Talk to each other

Talk to each other, Just Talk.
