Chapter XThe Truth is Out There but ...Trust No One! |

As I write these pages, the e-mails come fast and furious with questions. I recently received a communication from a correspondent which said, in part:
For the most part, the questions I receive are questions we have already asked the Cassiopaeans, only I have not yet managed to get all the material posted here on the site. Other questions are of the kind that really can be answered by us, with NO "intervention," if we will just take the time to study the matter and think. I will never forget the occasion when the Cassiopaeans responded to a general melee of rapid fire group questions with the following:
In and amongst our group, we have learned gradually to implement this type of activity. Yes, it means that we have to put forth effort, and much material must be researched and compared, but it has strengthened our confidence in our abilities to evaluate and make choices based on "hidden variables." Many of the questions I have received have been about "other sources" of information whose scenarios or interpretations of our reality vary somewhat from the Cassiopaean presentation. I have avoided talking about these things for a variety of reasons, the main one being that each individual learns something from every interaction and we all seem to learn best when we directly experience something for ourselves. In fact, in terms of our reality, each and every "source" of information has its place and purpose. Everyone who is "seeking" is at some point on the "learning cycle." The old saying: "when the student is ready, the teacher will appear" is appropriate in this respect. It would do no good for a child in second grade to work with a teacher who specializes in 6th grade material - he or she simply would gain nothing from the interaction but confusion. The Cassiopaeans have commented on this factor:
In other cases, the comments have indicated that the "channel" is not "clear," as it were, saying that this or that individual is working with a "fragmented" transmission. I would think that this means that the channel IS getting valid information mixed with "noise" or even deliberate disinformation. On other occasions, comments have been made that this or that channel is simply "making it up" at some level in their subconscious minds, even if they are sincere in their conscious thinking. In a couple of instances, the individuals in question were described as "agents of disinformation" and "agents provocateur." Rarely have we found the answer to be that the individual was just simply acting fraudulently for purposes of monetary gain, though that HAS come up a time or two. Now, it's all fine and good for the Cassiopaeans to say this or that in regard to other "sources," but the question then becomes: how reliable are the Cassiopaeans themselves? If a person were to write to me and ask about their weekly "channel o'choice," and I were to inform them that the Cassiopaeans had said that the individual was just patching together their own theories about things from their reading and presenting it as channeled information (which was the explanation in one case - a very popular and prolific source with an extensive web site), what would be the point? If the reader LIKES that source and LIKES their material, and further, based on their knowledge at the time (which may be greater or lesser, depending on the amount of research they have done into the subjects being talked about by their chosen"source"), believes it to be an accurate representation of reality, even if what is being talked about is a hidden reality, then they are perfectly right to adhere to their choice of belief systems. If, however, after a certain period of time of studying any such material, doing corollary research and comparisons to what can be observed and known through other disciplines, they discover that the presentation by the given source no longer "holds up" to scrutiny, then they are perfectly right to discard that belief system and expand their scope of understanding. This is why I say repeatedly that it is our responsibility to "do the work," examine the material, observe, research in the fields being discussed, compare, and most of all, THINK. When you strip away all the lies, what is left is Truth. And, in some teachings, you find that when you "peel the onion," there is nothing in the middle! The question then arises: can and do "benevolent" sources at other levels of reality LIE? Yes. I can hear the sharp gasps of horror and negation at this statement. I realize that many people have had "channeling experiences" with beings of "love and light" who infuse every word, every contact, every interaction with insuperable sensations of "love and well-being," which amounts to "proof" that their source is a truly "higher" being(s). And then, how often have I heard the story from hypnosis subjects who have come to me for help, telling me that when they began their channeling experiments, performing the prescribed exercises of "surrounding the self with love and light" and "calling on my guides and higher self for protection," the resulting contacts and information were "transcendent" and truly "love oriented;" and then something "went wrong?" Something turned around and there were energy drains, the messages that initially were so positive and beautiful soon became "oddly"different or "off key." In some cases, it turns ugly and intervention is necessary. In others, the percipient is convinced that they must "suffer" the side-effects for the sake of "the work," and no intervention is desired. But at the same time they wanted me to "fix" their stress problems or help them work on their energy levels, or find out if the "real" problem was in THEM, their past lives, or anything other than the fact that they were hooked up with vampiric "guides." Sometimes the percipient doesn't have such problems as this. The problem becomes apparent in other ways. Their source tells them that they are "special" or "chosen" in some way - that they are really a "great teacher" who is a "walk-in" or an "incarnation" who was stimulated to "awaken" on the day they serendipitously decided to "channel my higher self." They are given "titles," such as "Lord Ramananda" or "Lady Krishnagupa" or whatever. They are given to know that they are to be the new purveyors of the long hidden science of "Keyturn" or whatever, and the dance begins. The words pour forth in awesome syntactical matrices of great profundity and beneficence. And all the listeners agree that they are somehow "changed" or "uplifted and inspired" by the presence of so great a master in their midst. They follow the teachings, invest their time and money in predicted events of "mass landings" or "photon belts" or cometary companions who are going to airlift them to glory, and then - what? The predicted rapture goes kaflooey, and the "excuses" begin in an effort to find someone or something to blame for the disappointment. Somewhere along the way I received the following e-mail reproduced here exactly as I received it except that I have left out the name of the correspondent:
I wrote back and simply asked where was the love in promoting "mass landing" rumors and "photon belt" rumors that resulted in the suicides of 39 people? Further, where was the love in presenting aliens as "saviors of mankind," when clearly, that was not the case. I received no reply. In the book of Joel, the prophet talks about the "End Times" in the following way:
In
the book of Acts, this prophecy is declared to be "activated"
in the Christian context (about which I have my doubts!) with some
slight amplification:
At
the same time, 2nd Thessalonians says:
In
Matthew 24, when Jesus was asked "what will be the sign of the
end - the completion, the consummation - of the age? he answered:
So, we have some ancient traditions about this time of the "End," (or so we suppose it to be due to our many current observations about the state of the world), that support the idea of many, many channeled teachings and messages being "poured out" on the Earth in that given time. We note, in the first place, that it is described as a "pouring out of God's Spirit on all flesh" so that many are inspired to "prophesy" or have dreams and visions. Okay, that's all fine and good. BUT then we are told that a LOT of this will be "unlimited seduction to evil and with all wicked deception" brought through by "false prophets" and "wonder workers." Further, it is clearly stated that this influence is as a result of that very same "Spirit of God" when it is stated: "God sends upon them a misleading influence, a working of error and a strong delusion to make them believe what is false..." The final piece of the puzzle is "false prophets will arise, and they will show great signs and wonders, so as to deceive and lead astray, if possible, even the elect..." It's pretty clear, I think, that "the Elect," whoever and whatever they are, must be considered to be the prime targets of this activity, so we have to consider that it is NOT going to be an easy task to sort the wheat from the chaff! We can expect the "deceptions and delusions" to be VERY subtle and clever. Again, I would like to call your attention to the remark: "God sends upon them a misleading influence, a working of error and a strong delusion..." Don't you think that this is an ASTOUNDING statement? I do. It certainly makes it understandable why so many "sources" can come across as teachers of "love and light" when, in fact, they are purveyors of error and "strong delusion." In effect, we are being told that these are TESTS! And how do you pass a test? A really difficult one? At the very least, you have to have some knowledge of the subject. In most cases, it requires a great deal of study and effort. The point is: there is an ancient tradition that tells us that deception is going to be the keynote of the times. Those who have not done their "homework," and who are not AWARE of this, look upon the expanding "spiritual concerns" of the New Age "movement" as a sign that the world is going to be "transformed by love and light" and the aliens are here to help us, and we should all embrace every new "avatar" that comes down the pike showing us "signs and wonders" or telling us that we are "special and chosen," as our savior and way-shower to the Elysian Fields of sanctity and bliss. According to the Koran, God is the "Best of deceivers." In chapter 231 of Ibn al-'Arabi's Futuhat, ("Unveiling"), which is entitled "On Deception," there is a long description of the various forms that God's deception may take. It is said that God's deceptions appear as the "wiles of Satan" and the lower soul which often consist of:
In this chapter, Ibn al-'Arabi discusses various manifestations of deception, especially as it affects the general spiritual seeker, the "elect" and the "elect of the elect." These last can be the ones who are tempted by the desire to convince others by manifesting "signs." To attempt to "sidestep" the natural laws of the world in which we have our being is considered to be a very great "discourtesy" toward God because it suggests a judgment on the creation or a "breaking of the natural laws" without a direct command from God. It seems that, as a "test," God bestows upon some people the "power to break the laws of nature," and then places within such a person an urge to manifest these signs in such a way that he is unaware that this is a deception. Hence, he is inspired in his soul to manifest the signs as a kindness to "attract the creatures to God." Such a person does not understand that, by so doing, he is depriving the witnesses of "acting upon insight." [cf. Chittick] In other words, such a person has deprived his devotees of Free Will. The dangers come, of course, when a person deliberately seeks to "channel higher beings" or the "higher self" before being well educated in the history and forms and results of such activities. Such practices become, in effect, a "piercing of the veil," or as Ibn al-'Arabi calls it, "unveiling."
On a number of occasions, the Cassiopaeans have referred to two other sources of information as being of a more objective configuration and have suggested that we read them so as to save time in dealing with specific concepts. The two sources are Elkins, Rueckert and McCarty's The Ra Material and Barbara Marciniak's Bringers of the Dawn. Yes, they have mentioned that other material is "connected" to The Wave, but with varying degrees of corruption and distortion imposed by the recipients' "wishful thinking" and "assumptions." Apparently, these two, mentioned here, have suffered the least from distortion - but it doesn't take long for the "negative forces" to act upon those who are "in tune." As the Cassiopaeans have said:
In this respect, I think it is the long period of "training" I underwent in the areas of spirit release, depossession, exorcism, and identifying and dealing with STS/negative/demonic energies that may, initially present themselves as STO sources that has helped to prevent this very same corrupting element that worms its way in and gives that slight "twist" that derails the most positive of channels. I studied for over 30 years before I began to "practice" anything. In the beginning, my practice consisted of prayer and meditation, the object being to "achieve Divine Insight" rather than to "experience" anything of a material manifestation. In 1985, when I was 33 years old, I began to meditate as an adjunct to my studies. Those who have read The Secret History of The World are aware of some of the results of this period. During this same time, there was a great deal of what could only be called psychokinetic activity. Many people saw this as a "sign" of "spiritual achievement." I didn't. To me, it was useless and distracting. My studies had shown me that most, if not all, such events were a result of "short circuited" kundalini forces; energies of the soul, entering via the basal chakra, diverted by the brainstem into the environment. I was distressed that they were being "diverted" at this juncture, rather than flowing, as was proper, in the "Shepherd's Crook" configuration to the third eye. It was then, only by following the path as it developed, that the channeling "experiment" commenced (bringing to an end the PK activity). And, even at this point, it was more an attempt to bring up to conscious awareness, and then merge, the conceptualizations and possible insights of the subconscious mind. We DID have the idea that it was a path to "contact" with truly "higher beings," but we felt that this could only be accomplished via this "merge of conscious with subconscious" and clearing away the detritus of contradiction between the two. I guess it would be safe to say that, until I had studied for 40 years, I did not feel competent to attempt channeling. Many people, apparently, DO feel competent to do it with very little study - perhaps a weekend workshop or seminar at the local New Age Emporium - or because they have been "contacted" and "told" that it is their "destiny." I am afraid that if I had been thusly informed that I was going to be doing such a thing, it would NEVER have happened! (I guess I am a rebel at heart!) At the same time, I don't for a minute delude myself by thinking that we are immune to corruption. On the contrary, I am ALWAYS on the watch for information that is "off." I expect it, watch for it, and take all measures possible to prevent it on a continual basis. I am convinced that the instant this kind of vigilance is relaxed, you can pretty much say "goodbye" to objective channeling. Nevertheless, Barbara Marciniak apparently "tuned in" and her first book, Bringers of the Dawn, contained a good percentage of objective material. In the case of the Ra Material, this was also a "group effort" as is ours, with a somewhat scientific perspective. When analyzing their material, it seems that Don Elkins was the "contact" with Ra, and Carla, the "channel," was merely a sort of "conduit." Another way to describe it would be that Don was the tuner/receiver and Carla was the speaker. When Don died, Ra came no more. This brings up the question that many people have written to ask me: if the Ra Material was such a good source, as the Cassiopaeans state, why did Don Elkins commit suicide? If Ra was supposed to be Serving Others, why didn't he help Don? Good question. The problem, as I see it, was the "distortion" of judgment placed on the receiving of the material. In many ways, it was a very useful thing that this group was so aware of possible "corruption," and took so many "precautions." But, it may have been, in fact, these very "limitations" that they deliberately placed on their communication that were responsible for Don's deteriorating mental state and, ultimately, his decision to "end it all." There was the "circle" ritual that was instituted for Carla's "comfort." She did not feel "safe" otherwise. This "ritual" and feeling of "safety" may have been related to the group's idea of what was and was not "acceptable" in terms of subject matter. Or, it may simply have been Carla's own bias. Carla wrote honestly about this:
From all the reading I have done in these side remarks of the group, a great deal of activity revolved around Carla's "biases." It was a major operation just to get anything through at all! Then there is this:
Pay
special attention to the specific remark:
As much as I admire the material and the group and their efforts, I have to say that the above remark was clearly a "judgment." When you start judging, you begin constriction and limitation of what may or may not come through according to your idea of truth. Yes, indeed, one must "evaluate" the intent and nature of the entity(ies) transmitting, but one must NOT judge as unseemly any material which is, in fact, a FACT! If there is "corroboration" from other directions, even scientific or historical, yet you judge it to be "not worthy" of discussion, you have effectively closed down a "receptivity" to truth. As we have already discussed, ALL knowledge is knowledge of God. At whatever level it exists, it is a manifestation of the "Faces of God." Carla writes that they made a decision to remove this information because they felt it to be "entirely unimportant... whether true or not." This is one of the cleverest deceptions going in the modern "New Age" teachings. In effect, it PROMOTES the subjective and "wishful thinking" version of reality, suggesting at the same time that learning about the world "as it is," is somehow "dangerous." This is similar to the Christian Fundamentalist teaching that you never need to read any book but the Bible - everything you need to know is there. They contend that knowing anything outside of that, as Carla wrote about knowledge of anything outside of "love and light" questions, "adds nothing to one's ability or desire to seek the truth and nature of the evolutionary process." Yet, it is abundantly clear that knowing such things is CRUCIAL to understanding the truth of the "evolutionary process!" It may not add anything to the "desire," but it adds EVERYTHING to one's ABILITY to seek the truth. Carla wrote:
I certainly agree that "continuing to seek" this kind of information can become a stumbling block. But knowing it in the first place is essential to navigate one's way on the spiritual journey. And, in point of fact, the negative existence, the STS hierarchy IS part of the "eternal truths," and is therefore, of considerable interest and use, spiritually speaking. The next remark:
At this point in time, it is clear that the restricted line of questioning this group DID follow ultimately led to the loss of the contact with Ra through Don Elkin's suicide even though they thought that their precautions would produce the opposite result. Our own experience has shown us that pursuing the very lines of questions that the Ra group eschewed has been our only source of defense against the forces that have sought to destroy us. Had the Ra group also pursued this line of information, Don might have had the means of evaluating what was happening to him in the crushing psychic attack he underwent, and would thereby, very likely, have been able to resist the assault. I can tell you that the psychic attack, the mental pressure, the emotional manipulation, that one undergoes in this kind of work can be utterly brutal. There are no words to describe it. But it seems that doing it, and surviving it are essential to "broadening and deepening" the communication band. Carla wrote "...as Ra mentioned in the very first session, Ra communicated with us through a "narrow band" of vibration or wave length." This remark of Ra's undoubtedly referred to the restrictions placed on the conduit as a result of Carla's fears and biases, and the very judgments expressed in the above comments. I hardly think that such an entity as Ra was would be "confined" to, or experience reality as a "narrow vibration or wave length." It would, therefore, stand to reason that the "narrow band" was at the receiving end. The "band of communication" might very well have been broadened at the receiving end if such judgments and choices had not been made. The Cassiopaeans commented on this "broadening" of the channel on one occasion. In one of the earliest sessions, we were told about the experiments being performed on children by "aliens," and this was truly a horrible thing to be discussing. I later asked WHY such a thing was being told to us. Like Carla, I was of the opinion that a "good source" would only say "nice" things.
On the subject of "rituals," the Cassiopaeans are very clear that, for the most part, they are restrictive.
The following was one of their earliest explications of "Knowledge Protects."
The
following excerpt shows us how "focusing" on the negative aspects
can be as limiting as focusing on the positive. Once you know what the
situation is, how it developed and came into being, you can then more
easily control your own reaction to it.
A practical example of this is the well-known "PMS" syndrome. I had a friend who used to joke that "For years I suffered from PMS. Then I went through menopause. Now I realize I never had PMS. I'm just a natural bitch." Well, that's pretty funny, but it emphasizes something important. Many women have remarked how much easier it is to control their PMS reactions KNOWING what is going on. Before the defining of this syndrome, many women suffered horribly at the hands of friends and family who thought they were crazy or just simply bad tempered. When you know it is the hormone mixture in your body affecting the permeability of cell membranes which affects the electrical balance or synaptic response, it is a LOT easier to say to yourself "This will pass. I am only seeing things through the distortion of hormonal influences." It is also a lot easier to concentrate on normalizing your actions and reactions when you KNOW you have to compensate for a physiological condition. The same is true in terms of psychic attack - whether it comes from 3rd, 4th or 5th density sources. Once you know how these things work, when it happens to you, you are AWARE, and thus able to withstand the assault and put your attention where it belongs - on continuing to operate in a stable and clear-headed way - which you NOW KNOW is going to require extra exertion on your part - so that the attack passes much more quickly and with less damage. If, for example, an individual is under "attack" from a purely 3rd density source - say, an ELF transmitter is nearby causing severe fluctuations in their physiological system which then leads to internal sensations and perceptions that are distorted. So, they go to church and pray or get out the sage and light it up and wave it around. This may or MAY NOT have an effect. If, on the other hand, they become aware of the ELF transmitter, or the POSSIBILITY that it could be of such a nature, then their knowledge, combined with practice might have better results.
Note, however, the caveat in the above comments: "SOME benefit, at SOME level." In the end, knowledge of the true nature of the attack, and specific actions formulated in response to that knowledge, will be the most effective "ritual." Now, in the case of the Ra channeling experiment, it seems that the rituals put in place to make Carla comfortable certainly were of benefit to her. But, the question that must be asked is: did Don believe in them? If he had, then perhaps the protection would have extended to him as well. But, either he didn't believe in them, or they were objectively ineffectual. Knowledge of the methods of psychic attack, knowledge of negative experience in THIS density, and how to deal with it by being AWARE, would probably have saved Don's life. We asked the Cassiopaeans about it, specifically, at one point:
It is such a tragedy that this happened to this ground-breaking, trail-blazing group. But, it is a lesson for all of us to realize that when you begin to deal with the realms of knowledge of the cosmos, and you start to limit or place your subjective assumptions in the way so that the information is constricted or limited, that energy/information that you "filter out" STILL exists, objectively, and is still a part of YOU. It is NOT true that evil is created by the "mind of man" except insofar as the mind of man is the mind of God and all else. A simple way to understand this is: when you have a current of energy, it normally is a wave with crests and troughs - up and down, positive and negative. Those sources that focus on any one aspect of the energy become like a diode which converts alternating current to direct current. The current can flow through the diode only one way, and part of the current is "blocked" and is converted to heat. This is, essentially, the process of a DC converter and it is also why DC converters have to be frequently replaced: they burn out. The "heat" produced in Don as a result of the diode function of Carla was that which "burned out his circuits" because the information being transduced in Don was so much greater than that which could be received and channeled by Carla. I understood this instinctively when I was studying the Ra Material. Yes, I had many of the same biases as Carla in the beginning, but I was also aware of something else - something that was crucial to my understanding and which had resulted from my work in spirit release and exorcism - and that was a simple principle which amounts to this: putting attention on "negative" forces does NOT make them stronger if the intent is to diminish them. And one can only learn to "diminish" darkness by learning exactly what IS of darkness. And that amounts to, as we have already discussed, learning to identify our reality through its symbols, and learning to give each thing its "due." In another respect, a focus on "love and light" can, in some cases, reflect an inner "fear" of the darkness. And that fear will attract unpleasant experiences and events into one's life. Only knowledge can dispel that fear. In our own channeling, do we have a "diode" functioning? Do we "filter" the information? It is clear that Frank plays the role of the "ground wire," the actual conduit of the material into this realm, and that the "connection" to the Cassiopaean nexus is something that takes place through my physiology. I never hear anything in my mind, I am always as interested in having the comments read back to me as everyone else; I am constantly conscious and active, while Frank is generally in a sort of semi-conscious state. For a long time, we thought that this meant that "Frank was the source." But then, gradually, through experimentation, we discoverd that, yes, Frank can "channel" just about all the time by virtue of his uniquely balanced nature and physiology. He is the clearest and cleanest "open channel" I have ever encountered or heard of. But this conditions presents unique problems. Being an open channel means exactly that: an open channel, and it is the question of what person he is channeling with that determines what is channeled through him. When he channels "alone," he is subject to the whims and forces of everything and anything in the psychic "atmosphere." He seems to have NO DIODE FUNCTION. He merely connects and amplifies like a radio tuner and set of speakers.
What does this mean? Well, it is interesting the ways in which we have come to these conclusions. In the early days of the experiment, we noticed a curious phenomenon: if there were persons present who had strong emotional agendas or assumptions, these things would "color" the transmission. It was as though Frank were picking up on "bleed through" from the particular individuals sort of like "cross talk" on a radio or telephone when another conversation is being heard in the background. When he channels alone, having no orientation of his own, Frank is as subject to pure STS information as STO. His function as a tuner and speaker means that he can be "connected" to any transmission source. It also makes him uniquely able to do individual psychic readings by simply tuning into the individual with a clarity unsurpassed by any other psychic I've ever known. For many years, prior to our association, Frank was "channeling." He began doing it as a young child when he discovered that using a stick to beat out a rhythm could "entrance" him, and then his mind would receive endless streams of information. We experimented with him doing this alone, and examined the material produced thereby, and it was exactly the type of "mindless psychobabble" that comes through so many other "sources." It was clear that Frank was definitely a conduit, but he was not connected to any particular "source." One way of describing it would be like a radio tuner constantly running the "scan" function. This CAN produce problems when people are present at the sessions who have strong biases or emotional agendas. Doing the channeling under such conditions is rather like trying to watch television with the vacuum cleaner running. The static manifests as certain "turns of phrase" or grammatical constructions that are not usual, and even certain slants on the material. In some cases, it has resulted in the Cassiopaeans declining to answer some questions at all because it would be offensive to the guest. On a couple of occasions it was pretty obvious to me that they were declining to answer because the individual was an STS "mole." These answers usually come as "open," "up to you," or other non-answers. At one point, I started counting the number of "non-answers" and relating it to the people present, and I then began to realize that we had a real problem with this. That is why, at present, guests are VERY carefully screened prior to attendance at a session. But, even with "screening," you don't really know until you do it. There are many people who say all the "right things" to get invited to a session, but once there the energy sort of "forces them out in the open" and their biases become quite evident. I had to laugh on one occasion when the participant was told over and over again by the Cassiopaeans that he ought to "divulge" his true affiliations. The man became more and more uncomfortable and actually turned quite rude and aggressive thinking that to attack would divert the attention. Although Terry and Jan were the first to notice that Frank's function was other than being the "source contact," I wasn't too sure. However, a curious exchange occurred at one point which began to give me a better perspective on what was going on. It was shortly after my husband, Ark, found me through the Cassiopaean material, and, at that point, we were really pressing them for answers as to exactly WHAT was going on, what was our purpose, and so forth. The "maneuvered" connection with Ark certainly made it clear that this was not your ordinary, garden variety channeling. It was becoming clear that there was a purpose even though the Cassiopaeans declined to suggest as much, preferring to leave such realizations to our own "pathway of discovery." So, there we were, asking questions about the plans of the 4th density STS forces with the objective of trying to get a handle on our proper response. The questions were focused on activities in purported :
So, we studied that passage and came to the realization that Frank does, indeed, have a rare ability to act as a "broad band frequency transducer." His "tuning" is entirely dependent upon the strength of the "vector," which, respecting the Cassiopaeans, seems to be me.
Now, have a look at this next image which is one taken of me with an "aura camera" while sitting at the table, channeling. You can see the figures of the board itself in the lower right hand corner of the photo. But there is not a single physical feature of me apparent - not even my hands! This picture really freaked me out! Everyone in the room was having their aura photo taken, and everyone of them was there, in their picture, clear as anything. I had had aura photo's taken on other occasions which clearly showed ME with some bands of light and color and so forth. At the same time, Frank's aura photo was taken, and his was even more like a normal photograph than anything else. There was a misty green glow around him, and a few globular "balls" of darker color in his throat area, but he was as clear in the photo as he was when looking at him directly. So, when this picture came out, and I was NOT in it, I really started to feel a little nervous about the whole thing.
But, getting back to the Ra Material, Carla made the remark:
I agree that one should not "concentrate" on "conspiracy theories." The Cassiopaeans have said as much. But the fact is, they are a very real part of our world, and conspiracy is part and parcel of the STS pathway, and the reality in which we live. It is also apparent that we are here to learn the lessons of this reality as completely as possible in order to graduate. To consider this aspect of our world as being "outside" or "not a part" of God, is doing the very thing Carla was trying to avoid: in effect, by NOT learning about such things, she was reinforcing the illusion of separation and ignoring the love that binds all things as One Being - including conspiracies and their participants. To this day, Carla focuses in that direction, and suffers incredibly from many physical ailments and, seemingly, other mental/emotional torments. She has stated in her writings that these sufferings are the price she must pay in her efforts to hold her focus on "love and light." This is very commendable, but misses the point, I think. As we have talked about already, it is not that a person is supposed to MANIFEST negativity in their lives in a deliberate way. There is always choice. That is the key. But it is in judging the negativity to be an "error" or a "mistake" or something to be "fixed" in others that one goes astray. And when you exert effort to "create love and light via focus on same," it becomesa tacit admission that there is some lack of it in your reality. Folks have a lot of problems in distinguishing between "judgment" and "assessment and personal choice." I can look at and assess any number of things as "negative" and choose to act otherwise, or, in other words, learn to give negativity its "due" by non-participation. But, I don't have to think that I must impose my choice on anyone else, nor do I have to think that the negativity needs to be "fixed" or "done away with." It is the choice of some beings to follow that path. They have the right to choose it just as I have the right to choose what I choose. And, the only way I CAN choose IS TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE! And I cannot know the difference if I do not have the deepest knowledge possible about every aspect of the reality in which I live. And that is not to say that we can ever fully know the TRUTH. But it is our job to Love the Creator, and we cannot love the Creator/Self without KNOWING Creator/Self. When we deny fully half of Creation, we are choosing to love only OUR IMAGE of what the Creator SHOULD be, according to OUR judgment. And by "blocking," or ignoring information that would instruct us about the many Faces of God, we are actually taking action against God. We are judging and carrying out a sentence of exclusion. And that which we exclude from acknowledgement comes back to us over and over again in our lessons in life. Now, having talked about the Ra Material source in some detail, I want to suggest that those who have not read it, try to get a copy because it is a rare and amazing thing what this group did, in spite of the pit they fell into and the tragedy that resulted. Don paid a very high price for the purity of the material and it deserves first place in the higher level transmissions. Here are some of the comments of the Cassiopaeans about the Ra channeling:
This is another area where there are some misunderstandings in the "spiritual" life. Many seekers believe that their inability to function in the real world is like a badge of merit - a proof of their "great spirituality." Physical ailments, loss of function, inability to manage ordinary daily affairs, and so on and on are all excused because the person is so "spiritual" that they cannot be expected to be bothered with such things. Well, that's all fine and good but, wouldn't you think that a person who is supposed to have "graduated" to higher spiritual realms did so because they mastered the lower ones? And, if that is the case, what is so hard about remembering those lessons and activating them at a higher level of competence this time around? If you have graduated to 6th grade, surely you can ace all the tests of 3rd grade? Up to this point, I haven't posted much material on the site here about my specific work as a hypnotherapist and the things I learned as an exorcist that gave me insight into the ins and outs of the "spiritual realms," but I knew what I was dealing with when we began the experiment. I have written about it briefly in the Amazing Grace series which chronicles some of the steps leading to the C's... though there is still a lot that has been omitted for safety considerations, so to speak. The bottom line was: I used some pretty sophisticated techniques to maintain a state of "psychic" cleanliness at the inception of the project, throughout the past 10 years or so, and at present, I constantly monitor the "flavor," feel and "fruits" of the contact - making adjustments or shifts to accommodate. And, most of all, we look on it as "play." We don't now, nor did we ever, take it as "true believer" material. It sure is interesting because of the many areas that have independent corroboration, but some of it is, by its very nature, unverifiable. There are many things we have learned, and not just from being "informed," but by having a suggestion given to us, which we then observed, experimented with, and developed more fully on our own. And, this is one of the keys to the Cassiopaean's: they don't just "hand it out." As I have noted on the site, they give "clues," but not roadmaps. Their position is that if we don't DO something, work for it as it were, it is useless; like candy: empty calories. And, clearly, this approach is designed to make the practice of "channeling" unnecessary and obsolete. We will, eventually, "become" them. Repeatedly they tell us that "leading us by the hand" is detrimental; they have laid the groundwork, given us the boost because we ASKED (and did so repeatedly, consistently, and with dedication for over two years before the contact initiated), but that the real purpose is to get us to learn to walk on our own. Most channeled sources want folks to channel just so they can channel more and more and on and on. The Cassiopaean's have actually been becoming less and less communicative... preferring to tell us "you have the tools, we have taught you, now figure it out yourself!" A lot of people don't like that. They want to have everything handed to them; they don't want to think or work or do anything except just lie down and have everything pour into their heads. Then, they just "believe" and get "eaten alive." (Which generally manifests as all sorts of physical, emotional, mental and relationship type problems.) There is another curious thing about channeling and current day "channeled" material, and that is the excessive, archaic, or convoluted syntactical verbiage! As Michael Topper described it:
