Now that we more or less have some idea of the kinds of things that might be going on in the so-called "real world," i.e. human engineered mind programming, we have a lot to think about. We have also talked about people who may have enormous potential for Service to Others who may be special targets for mind programming activities,whether human originated or "other density/dimension," and we have talked about what seems to be, more or less, an ongoing "experiment" in social and philosophical control whereby masses of people can be influenced to think in certain "loops" that may have no basis in reality.

Are we talking about just a small group?

Of course, the reader is going to think that whatever ideas he/she espouses based upon his/her religious or cultural upbringing are exempt. THEY are the "right" ones. Or, he/she has attached himself to this or that teaching, whether it be "channelled" or scientific or ethnic or whatever, and because it "feels right, or because his/her "guide" or inner guidance system of whatever nature, has "confirmed" it for him/her, it is NOT subject to being a "program."

I want to remind the reader of the following:

01-21-95
Q: (L) How "long", and I put long in quotes, because we know, as you say, there is no time, but how long, as we measure it, have the Grays been interacting with our race? The Grays, not the Lizards; the Grays, the cybergenetic probes?
A: Time travelers, therefore, "Time is ongoing."
Q: (L) Okay, recently I read a couple of books Jan gave me, "Knight in Shining Armor" and "Replay". Both of these books described time travel.
A: No, not finished with answer. Do you understand the gravity of last response?
Q: (L) They are time travelers, they can move forward and backward in time, they can play games with our heads... (T) They can set up the past to create a future they want. (D) They can organize things so that they can create the energy that they need... (L) They can also make things look good, make them feel good, make them seem good, they can make you have an idea one minute, and then the next minute, create some sort of situation that confirms that idea...
A: When you asked how long, of course it is totally unlimited, is it not?
Q: (L) That's not good. If they were to move back through space time and alter an event in our past, would that alteration in the past instantaneously alter our present as well?
A: Has over and over and over.
Q: (D) So they do it over and over and over, constantly? (L) So, at each...
A: You just are not yet aware, and have no idea of the ramifications!!!
Q: (L) We're getting a little glimmer! (T) The ramifications of being able to move in and out of time and manipulate it the way you want (Jan/Laura) And the ramifications of what they're doing to us and what they will do to us, over and over. (L) So, in other words, our only real prayer in this whole damn situation is to get out of this density level. That's what they're saying, that's what it sounds like to me.
A: Close.
Q: (L) Because, otherwise, we're just literally, as in that book, stuck in the replay over and over and over, and the Holocaust could happen over and over, and we could just, you know... Genghis Khan, Atilla the Hun... over and over and over again. (T) We're stuck in a time loop; they're putting us in a time loop. (J) Are we in a time loop?
A: Yes.

I once had what I thought was a rather silly idea. I was reading "alien abduction" cases, and the descriptions were so similar that I wondered if it was the same few guys who constantly traveled back in time over and over again abducting first one person, then another and then another and so on. If they could keep going back to the same moment in time, but to a different person, millions of people could be abducted by the same little group, seemingly SIMULTANEOUSLY. It may not have been such a silly idea, though it might not have been exactly that.

Some of you may remember what Ark wrote in Physics and the Mysterious about channelling:

We need now to return to our question: if communications from the future are possible, why don't we receive these broadcasts on a daily basis?

If our minds can serve as receivers, then why aren't we all aware of the transmissions?

I think that the answer has to do with multiple realities and branching universes, and perhaps any civilization which would receive messages from the future on a daily basis has ceased to exist because communication through time is a very dangerous game. You produce paradoxes and these paradoxes remove the paradoxical universes from the repository of possible universes; if you create a universe with paradoxes, it destroys itself either completely or partially. Perhaps just intelligence is removed from this universe because it is intelligence that creates paradox. Perhaps we are very fortunate that even if we can receive some of these messages from the future, we still continue to exist.

Suppose our civilization were to advance to the point where everyone can communicate with themselves in the past; they have a computer with a special program and peripheral device that does this. It becomes the latest fad: everyone is communicating with themselves in the past to warn of dangers or upcoming calamities or bad choices, or to give lottery numbers or winning horses. But, what is seen as a "bad choice" or "calamity" for one, could be seen to be a "good event" or "benefit" to someone else!

So, the next step would be that "hackers" would begin to break into the systems and send false communications into the past to deliberately create bad choices and calamities for some in order to produce benefits for themselves or others.

Then, the first individual would see that false information has been sent and would go into their system and go back even earlier to warn themselves that false information was going to be sent back by an "imposter" and how to tell that it was false.

Then the hacker would see this, and go back in time to an even earlier moment and give false information that someone was going to send false information (that was really true) that false information (that was really false) was going to be sent, thereby confusing the issue.

This process could go on endlessly with constant and repeated communications into the past, one contradicting the other, one signal canceling out the other, with the result that it would be exactly the same as if there were NO communication into the past!

There is, also, the very interesting possibility that the above scenario IS exactly what is taking place in our world. [Jadczyk, 1999]

Then, we have that most interesting remark made by our demon possessed subject in Aliens, Demons and Vampires which said:

"She puts the robe around me and then my mind separates from my body. I can look back and see it lying there. Then we go up through the ceiling, pop out the roof, and fly into space. One night the Lady took me back in time. We were in a foreign country and the people wore old-fashioned clothes. The Lady took on the appearance of a beautiful woman in a blue robe. She performed miracles for them..."

Suddenly Ann's face turned ashen and she asked to be excused. Her scream of pain was heard from the bathroom where she had taken refuge. When Ann came out, she was sniffling and holding her abdomen. The Lady had savagely attacked her for revealing that down through history, creatures like the Lady have taken the form of saints. They then use the gullibility of humankind to misguide and misinform people so that they believe they are seeing miracles performed. Ann begged the newsman to delete that portion of the interview." [Osborn, 1982]

It's a fine pickle we've gotten ourselves into, isn't it Ollie?

A correspondent recently wrote to me:

The last parts of the Wave were a lot about mindprogramming. Well, something happened in 'real life' which in a way REALLY scared me. I only have started to realize very recently that this might/could be just another example of how STS 4D tries 'to get to us', "us" being especially the more 'active' ones in the field, meaning those that work "in the field," so to speak. (I am a magazine publisher, specializing in metaphysical subjects.)

Logically, that's not so much to these STS guys liking and the 'bag of tricks' they may have available is phenomenal. I would like to ask you to give your opinion about what happened to me. Was it an incredible scheme of manipulation, defying all credibility, just set up to deceive me, or what?

A first remark: 4D STS can somehow 'monitor' our 'weakest' spots. For some it is money, others power, others wealth, still others fame, etc...I guess mine would me 'in the emotional area', and do they know how to 'move in'...

It starts in the fall of 1996; I was in LA attending a 'Mind,Body, Spirit' event, to see if there was anything there worthwhile that I wanted to cover. There happened to be one, just 1, metaphysical teaching that really got my attention... It just felt good, peaceful, mystical ...I talked with two guys, they were extremely polite and gave me a book. I read it later on and, well, I sort of liked it. It was a sort of story, bordering reality and SF(At least, so I thought). It was clearly an introduction book. Easy to read, to get people's attention; just introducing the subject.

Now, we jump to the spring of 1997. I saw a specific website (about walk-ins) and just 'registered' it. Nothing to do with the aforementioned 'New Age Teaching'. End of June 1997: I attend an New Age trade show in Birmingham; guess what, there they (the aforementioned New Age group, NOT the "walk-in" group) were again! I had lunch with the two people in the booth. Nice meeting. And I offered to help them.

Then, second week of September 1997...I am driving on the M25 around London, and 'out of nowhere' a sort of telepathic communication gets started. Not frightening, it was actually 'funny' in a strange way. It never had happened to me like that (at that time I was guessing that 'my guidance' was really moving up a notch!!Well, I didn't know the C's website yet). It was about a conference I should attend somewhere nearby Glastonbury, UK. The conference was about walk-ins. I found out the dates (coincidence!It was just the weekend I had decided to 'keep free for me'!) So, I went.

Very nice conference it was. And there I meet 'someone.' yup, an American girl. Stunning redhead! All kinds of the strangest things start to happen... Synchronicities all over the place, people actually started saying things about me when looking at her; talking about a magic (or should I say 'magick'??) weekend! it didn't stop there...'Romance' followed - oh so swiftly...TOO swiftly I'd say now. A real "love bite!"

Well, hey, I was experiencing a living fairytale here! So, she decides to stay after the weekend. But guess what? She just 'happened' to be deeply involved in this very same New Age teaching I had recently become involved in!! And, as it just "happened," I was just going to a show to 'introduce' the material there. Well, she could come along and help, right??? Give a little talk, meet the people. What a coincidence!

But now, she starts 'bombarding' me with the principles of this 'teaching'. At times, I even had to get a bit aggressive to avoid this continual effort to "brainwash" me. At this point, the group sent me a second book, and somehow, this changed my views entirely regarding this teaching. (Divine STO intervention?) After reading this second book, I could see that this teaching was a THREAT of the worst kind!

But, because of this woman, and the emotional ties, I kept this to myself because there were plans to visit the group's European HQ. I thought that, at least, I would be able to examine things further and make a more thorough assessment. While there, I experienced, (no kidding), the worst direct attack of psychic black magic you can imagine. It freaked me out!! It was me against eight or so tough people! It actually made me sick.

And of course, there were the ongoing big confrontations with the girl about this, so she went home. One month later I was in the US to try to figure out what the meaning of all this was. I don't think I ever lived through a more confusing month than the month of November 1997.

To make a long story short: Because I was not willing to be brainwashed, I went back home a 'heartbroken man'...Couldn't figure out what the heck had happened. This was nothing like me, still it happened TO me. There followed 15 months of silence. Oh yes, I DID get regular mailings from that group; a continuous barrage of material.

The story had another chapter in a 'less dense' way just this past year. A last meeting in the states with the redhead where she made a last 'attempt' (pretty forced...) to 'turn me on' to that teaching, right? Well, it didn't work. After a last email conversation with her...the mailings also stopped from the main HQ.

Conclusion: can it be that this whole 'play' was just staged to get me 'hooked up' in that bl**dy teaching??? They probably considered me 'useful' for their organization? I would not be surprised if there were Greenbaum types and others involved (I never could figure out where they got their funds from - and they were WELL funded!).

The scary part is, how could all these - at first sight - totally non-related events be set up and coordinated??? The whole thing played out in 3-4 countries, on several continents, involved different, non-related (I guess...) organizations; a concerted attack on me where I am 'weakest'; the most incredible 'miracles' happened to make it seem that "the hand of God" was upon me, in contradiction to what I KNEW to be true about this teaching - that it was a real THREAT to mankind! Just a big cosmic drama.

The thing is, I believe it to be possible that not one of them (maybe 1 or 2 of the 'heads' in the UK excepted, they gave me a very 'strange' feeling) is consciously aware of what's going on!

'They' (4D STS) made one HUGE mistake: their timing was just too perfect... The same day that this manipulation was finally stopped by me, a new one was started - or at least it was tried!! I am getting VERRRRY careful now.

OK, I know, Knowledge protects...I learned that part at least. But how many others are led into similar things in similar ways and don't have the knowledge about New Age teachings that I did so that, with the second book I was able to discern and make a decision, against all the synchronicities and "confirmations" and so forth that have become "bread and butter" for the New Age set?

This correspondent was really on the "fast track," I would say. But this is not the only story of this kind I have heard, not to mention what I have lived personally! But he makes some crucial points about our subject here when he asks "The scary part is, how could all these - at first sight - totally non-related events be set up and coordinated???" And he adds "The thing is, I believe it to be possible that not one of them (maybe 1 or 2 of the 'heads' in the UK excepted, they gave me a very 'strange' feeling) is consciously aware of what's going on!"

Oh, so true! And how often have I seen it. The most useful "tools" of 4th density STS are those who simply do not believe in a control system, and do not think that they, themselves, can be used! The instant you think this, is the instant you are vulnerable.

In answer to the question of how such a "Cosmic Drama" could be orchestrated, just keep in mind the "time travel factor," and the following:

11-19-94
A: Disinformation comes from seemingly reliable sources. It is extremely important for you to not gather false knowledge as it is more damaging than no knowledge at all. Remember knowledge protects, ignorance endangers. The information you speak of, Terry, was given to you deliberately because you and Jan and others have been targeted due to your intense interest in level of density 4 through 7 subject matter. You have already been documented as a "threat." [...] Remember, disinformation is very effective when delivered by highly trained sources because hypnotic and transdimensional techniques are used thereby causing electronic anomalies to follow suggestion causing perceived confirmation to occur.
Q: (T) What I want to know is who has the power and ability to set up these kinds of "confirmations" or synchronicities?
A: Same forces spreading disinformation: Brotherhood/ consortium/ Illuminati/ New World Order/ "Antichrist"/ Lizards.
Q: (T) But I'm just a nobody. Why would they go to all trouble...
A: Several answers follow: Number One, Nobody is a "nobody." Number two, it is no trouble at all for aforementioned forces to give seemingly individualized attention to anybody. Number three, Terry has been targeted and so has Jan and others because you are on the right track. Number four, This area is currently a "hot bed" of activity and extremely rapidly expanding awareness.

When I was first reading the Greenbaum material, I kept thinking that this was more or less a "shadow" of what 4th density beings must be capable of doing. The fact that we are even aware of the Greenbaum program is due to "errors" or "glitches" in the programs. What about the people who have no "glitches?" What about the people who are "perfectly programmed" via truly alien technology? How could we ever tell? At one point, we questioned the Cassiopaeans a bit more closely about 4th density programming:

07-19-95
Q: (L) Our first question is: In a previous session we were given a small dissertation on the process of abduction. It was described for us in some detail. Now, what we would like to know is, if our souls are abducted from our bodies and then used as a pattern for remolecularization in fourth density, is there ever, at any time, a remolecularized clone that is retained in fourth density even after the soul has been returned to its original body?
A: No, it's not possible.
Q: (L) So, they don't keep a pattern or clone of any of us after they have abducted us, "they" being a general term?
A: No.
Q: (L) Do any of the STS beings have the ability to cause us physical problems, or mental or emotional problems when not in direct contact with us?
A: Certainly.
Q: (L) How is this done?
A: A number of different methods used.
Q: (L) Could you give us one or two examples of how this is done?
A: There are many: sound wave manipulation of the ultra high frequency range would be one.
Q: (L) What do these sound waves in the ultra high frequencies do?
A: They can alter chemical balances within the body of the subject, thereby also the brain, using the physical path to cause distress by altering these chemical imbalances into place.
Q: (L) Do these ultra-high frequency sound waves ever carry messages in terms of pre-coded suggestions that are triggered by these waves?
A: Messages are not carried in ultra-high frequency sound waves. Now, you are talking about an entirely different method. Sound wave focusing is designed to alter body and brain chemistry in order to alter such things as physical sensations, emotions, and so forth, which then may lead to the altering of mental thought patterns. But messages are not sent by ultra-high frequency sound waves. Messages are sent by something called Free Formal Imaging.
Q: (L) And what does that describe?
A: That describes the transference of thought.
Q: (L) And how is that done? At what frequency is it done?
A: Not correct concept. There is no "Frequency" as such involved. There is methodology that, again, unfortunately, you do not understand. However, since you seek answers to all questions, the only possible way to explain is to simply say a thought is formed in one realm and sent to a second realm, which is yours.
Q: (L) Okay. Can it be sent to a directed target?
A: Absolutely.
Q: (L) Now, the question has arisen that, since other dimensional beings have the ability to kidnap or abduct or forcibly extract souls, do they also have the capability of manipulating our soul essences after they have left our bodies during the transition to fifth density?
A: Not correct. You see when your physical body expires, and you enter fifth density, this is done one way and one way only: by passing through a conduit which opens specifically for the purpose of transference from third density to fifth density. Now, something often referred to in your terminology as a silver thread, is like a closed line which opens when this conduit is needed. That's rather awkward, but it's the only way to describe it. So that when the physical body terminates, this line is opened forming a conduit through which the soul passes naturally. However, part of the existence of this conduit is that it is absolutely impenetrable by any force from any density level. Therefore, souls in the process of transferring from third density to fifth density are not in any way able to be molested or tampered with. And it should be mentioned here, also, that the soul imprint of the physical body always has a connection to fifth density and that is through the so-called "silver thread." That always exists as the third density soul's doorway to fifth density. It can be opened at a moment's notice whenever needed. When it is opened it becomes a conduit. Through that conduit the soul passes. And it is not subject to interference by anything. This is not a deliberate construction, it is merely the natural process. Once it is passing through the conduit produced by the opening of the silver thread, then, of course, it cannot be tampered with. Do you understand?
Q: (L) Yes, but why do so many souls, when they leave the body, not traverse this conduit, and why do they stay earthbound, and why do they attach to other bodies? Why does this condition exist?
A: That is a complicated question, however the best answer is choice is involved there for those souls who wish not to leave the plane of third density. The only possibility to do this is to be detached from the now expired physical body but still be within the third density plane, which, of course, is not natural, but nonetheless can occur. In situations such as this, though it has been incorrectly reported, the silver thread is still attached and still remains a thread rather than a conduit. The soul is still attached to the silver thread but detached from the host body which has now expired. So the effect is very similar to being consciously aware of third density surroundings without a third density unit to accompany. Do you understand?
Q: (L) Yes. Okay...
A: Also, please be aware of the fact that once the soul leaves the confines of the physical body, the illusion of time passage is no longer apparent even when the soul remains on the third density plane. Therefore, it appears to that soul that no time whatsoever has passed. And, we mention this merely for you to contemplate all of the various meanings behind this.

Free Formal Imaging. I wonder how many people think they have "guides" and they are really just being manipulated by such "messages?" And, the above exchange makes the problem even more difficult since the Cassiopaeans are suggesting that body chemicals can be manipulated by sound waves, and that these chemicals - including hormones one would guess - affect one's thinking. As noted earlier, any woman who has ever suffered PMS knows how true that is! But, excluding normal cyclical fluctuations, it seems that the same PMS type state, and even others more precisely formulated, can be artificially stimulated in the individual by this sound wave technology. What about stimulation of "pleasure chemicals?" How easy would it be for them to implant an idea, send a "voice" message via an "idea construct," and then simultaneously stimulate the pleasure centers of the brain so that the individual is "washed through and through" with "warmth and love," thereby being convinced that the idea is from the "positive" guys?

At the same time, we understand one of the means by which an individual can be blocked from retrieving memories by having a "pain block" installed, or later stimulated.

Of course, sound wave technology is not limited to 4th density use, as many researchers will tell you. But, the point is: it becomes almost impossible to trust one's emotions when considering this factor! So, again, we see the necessity for knowledge about the environment and thoughtful examination of our internal state at all times in order to avoid such traps.

Just how powerful this type of manipulation can be, even in human hands, is exemplified in a couple of brief remarks about the Branch Davidians at Waco:

10-05-94
Q: (L) Did the United States government deliberately murder the Branch Davidians at Waco?
A: Close. Led them to destroy themselves.
Q: (L) How?
A: Psychological warfare tactics.
Q: (L) Did the US government set their compound on fire?
A: No.
Q: (L) Who set the compound on fire?
A: Branch Davidians. ELF and subliminals as well as other means drove them crazy.

That the use of ELF and other sound frequencies is ubiquitous was mentioned by the Cassiopaeans one night to a researcher who had recently been through what she described as a "severe psychic attack."

02-12-95
Q: (CD) The thing the other night... was I being bombarded by ELF frequencies?
A: All are.
Q: (L) All in the room?
A: All are.
Q: (CD) Am I in physical danger?
A: That is not the point. You can be harassed.
Q: (BP) Cannot unconditional love and faith overcome all of this?
A: More is needed. Knowledge protects.

In addition to sound, it seems that it is used in conjunction with other technologies to keep the human population "deaf and blind." The funny thing about the following was that it was another instance of a suggestion for a series of questions made by the Cassiopaeans themselves in response to an unspoken question:

11-18-95
A: Strobe lights are used for 3rd density mind control.
Q: (L) Strobe lights located where? What brought that up?
A: We have picked up your thought waves, which are progress oriented, and are trying to assist you in your increased learning and progress frequency wave. You see, this increases the energy level!!
Q: (L) Okay. You mentioned the strobe lights. Are these strobe lights that are used to control minds, are these something that we would or might come in contact with on a daily basis?
A: Do you not already know? We didn't say: some strobe lights, we said: strobe lights, i.e. all inclusive!
Q: (T) Strobe lights come in many forms and types. TV is a strobe light. Computer screens are a strobe light. Lightbulbs strobe. Flourescents strobe. Streetlights strobe.
A: Police cars, ambulances, firetrucks... How long has this been true? Have you noticed any changes lately??!!??
Q: (F) Twenty years ago there were no strobe lights on any of those vehicles mentioned. They had the old flasher type lights. Now, more and more and more there are strobe lights appearing in all kinds of places. (L) And now, they even have them on school buses! (T) And the regular city buses have them too, now. (L) Okay, is the strobing of a strobe light, set at a certain frequency in order to do certain things?
A: Hypnotic opener.
Q: (L) What is the purpose of the hypnotic opener being used in this way?
A: You don't notice the craft. Opener. Is precursor to suggestion, which is auditory in nature.
Q: (T) What suggestion?
A: Put on your thinking caps. Networking is not making assumptions. Bold unilateral statement of "fact" is.
Q: (T) Oh. Phrase your statements in the form of a question! Cosmic Jeopardy! I'd like "Hypnotic Openers" for $200, Alex! (L) Okay, you said the "suggestion is auditory in nature." If this is the case, where is the suggestion coming from in auditory format?
A: Where do you normally receive auditory suggestions from?
Q: (L) Radio, television... (T) Telephone... (L) Is that what we are talking about?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) If you encounter a strobe while driving, or you are sitting in front of your television, then the suggestions can be put into you better because of this hypnotically opened state? Is that it?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) What are these suggestions designed to do, to suggest? In a general sense? To not see the craft?
A: Yes.
Q: (T) Do we get these signals from the radio in the car even if it is turned off?
A: Depends upon whether or not there is another source.
Q: (T) Another source such as?
A: ELP, for example. Extremely Low Pulse.
Q: (T) ELF, Extremely Low Frequency, and ELP, Extremely Low Pulse - is this the same thing?
A: Sometimes.
Q: (T) This would be an external pulse or frequency?
A: Yes.
Q: (T) Would it be originating from the source of the strobe?
A: No. They act in unison.
Q: (L) And this process prevents us from seeing something, such as craft flying in our skies at any given time?
A: Or maybe see them as something else.
Q: (L) Now, we have to stop for a minute because I want to tell you something. In the past few months, I have really been watching the sky carefully every opportunity I get. On 3 or 4 separate occasions I have seen what I thought was an ordinary airplane, and I would watch it carefully and then scan to the left or right, and when I looked back at the place where this plane should be, based on observable speed and direction, there would be NOTHING there. I have stood there and searched and searched and found nothing. These things just VANISHED. I knew I had seen it, I knew I wasn't crazy, I knew it couldn't have gone away that completely - and having it happen several times has just really unsettled me. What are the implications of this, other than the fact that we could be completely overflown at all times for any number of purposes and be, as a mass of people, completely unaware of it?
A: Yes, monoatomic gold!
Q: (L) And what does the reference to monoatomic gold mean? We have wondered about obtaining and taking some of this Monoatomic Gold.
A: Are you serious? How about some small helpings of arsenic, anyone?
Q: (L) OK, my feeling is that there is some negative energy behind that, even though David Hudson is trying to be a positive person and do positive things, and that... It may be that he is being manipulated.
A: This is often true!
Q: (L) I think that taking something like that to transform your consciousness without doing the work or having it occur naturally is a violation of the Free Will of the Higher Self. That's what I think. (F) Well, did Jesus or other great masters take this gold powder?
A: No.
Q: (L) Did Adolph Hitler take this kind of powder, or something similar?
A: Yes.
Q: (F): That paints a rather bleak picture, doesn't it? (L) Could this powder be utilized to transform a person to a very positive entity doing great good?
A: Or could it be utilized to transform an entire race of beings into hypnotic submission!!!!!!!!!!!
Q: (F): Wow! (L) Put it in the water. (F) Or even just advertise it as the "Manna from Heaven" and get the biggest corporations in the world to ... I mean, you know that if this guy were not meant to spread this stuff all around, by now he'd be running into roadblocks, you wouldn't be allowed to get tapes like that out there. That was one thing I was suspicious of, like why he hasn't even been stopped, if it's really as wonderful as he claims... I mean it just doesn't fit. Anything that's really, really good, and it's going to go against the control system... Are they just going to sit back and say "Oh, yeah, we'll just let this gold powder get spread round everywhere, and everybody will take it and develop super psychic powers and wake up," just like that? I don't think so! The fact that it is being promulgated from the "other side" tells us that there is a plan here...
A: Total entrapment of the being, mind, body and soul. Strobes use minute gold filament.
Q: (L) How can that compare with taking monoatomic gold internally?
A: What composes minute filament, do you suppose? Hint, it ain't from Fort Knox!
Q: (T) Monoatomic gold.
A: Bingo. You see, this has extraordinary properties.
Q: (T) I'm sure it does! The thing is, if it does what Hudson says it does, the power structure would have shut him down - he wouldn't have gotten this far with it. So, if they are letting him do it, it's because it doesn't do what he says it does, it does the opposite. When you take the stuff for so many days, you complete the program, it restructures your genes. Isn't that what happened to us before? Do we want to do it again? (L) And, wasn't it said that LIGHT was used to cancel certain DNA factors? (J) Exactly! (L) Okay, how do we block this kind of control?
A: You don't. Knowledge protects.

Regarding the ELF control factor, we had a personal experience at one point that can give some clues to others who are searching. In 1997, Ark had several research obligations in Europe and one of them was in Gottingen. When he arrived, he was assigned an office and would walk from the hotel to the office at the University there every day. But there was a strange problem. As soon as he would get settled in to work, he became so sleepy that he could simply NOT stay awake. He tried everything from getting up and moving around to drinking coffee or tea, and nothing worked. He tried going to sleep earlier to make sure he was well rested, but he simply could not sleep in a way so as to get good rest. Even if he felt relatively rested in the hotel, the instant he would enter the office and begin working, the drugged sensation would wash over him and he would become almost incoherent. We were in constant contact by e-mail and phone, and I was becoming very worried about him.

Well, he finally noticed that when he was down in the basement library of the University, he was not sleepy, so he took his notebook down there to work and spent as little time in the office as possible. I decided to ask a few questions about this situation:

05-17-97
Q: Ark has been having a problem sleeping at night and staying awake in the office. The building is a number 9, but there is also the Max Planck Institute across the street. Is it the number 9, or the Max Planck Institute across the street?
A: Well, we vote for Max!
Q: So, what are they doing over there in that building that is affecting him?
A: Better question: What are "they" doing on 4th density that is affecting him?
Q: Since that is a better question, what ARE they doing on 4th density that is affecting Ark? Is he being abducted from this building?
A: No.
Q: Are they STS or STO?
A: STS.
Q: Are they zapping him with some kind of frequency modulation?
A: Close.
Q: Why is it more effective in that building than in the basement or at his hotel?
A: Because of Max.
Q: Okay, they are using whatever is going on in that building to zap Ark. Anything else they are doing there?
A: Yes.
Q: Could you tell me what?
A: No. It would not be in your best interests to know.
Q: Is there anything else they are doing to Ark?
A: Yes.
Q: Can you tell me?
A: Body chemistry alteration.
Q: In what sense is there body chemistry alteration going on?
A: Brain wave factors.
Q: Is there something he can do for protection?
A: He soon will leave the area.
Q: Well, during the time he is there, how much damage can they do?
A: Probably not much.
Q: Anything else?
A: One shot of whiskey per day will help.
Q: Well, that is a bizarre thing to say! A shot of whiskey?! That will help his brain chemistry?
A: Some.
Q: What is this altering of his brain chemistry designed to do?
A: Befuddle.
Q: Well, I think it is working. Any other suggestion besides staying in the hotel, or the basement, and drinking a shot of whiskey a day?
A: No need.
Q: And you are not going to tell us what they are doing over there in the Max Planck Institute?
A: As Carlos Allende would say: "If you knew, you would die of shock."

Well, many of the things going on here on the Big Blue Marble certainly aren't "friendly" for sure! But, as the Cassiopaeans noted, Ark was soon to leave Gottingen for Dijon for a couple of weeks, after which he traveled to Florence. The time in Dijon was as bad, if not worse, than the time in Gottingen. At the point of the next extract, he was already in Florence.

07-05-97
Q: (L) This past couple of weeks that Ark spent in Dijon were miserable. What was the fundamental reason for these conditions and this misery?
A: Near ELF transmitter. Also the water supply is loaded with fluoride.
Q: (L) He is gone from Dijon now. Whatever it was in Gottingen, you said he would be gone soon and not to worry. So... he is no longer near the ELF transmitter... he is no longer drinking the water...
A: Fluoride is toxic, and deposits in fatty tissues, and lymph system. Aside from the obvious possible negative consequences, it can make one more susceptible to electromagnetic wave frequencies that are designed to make one open to mind alteration!
Q: (L) Okay. You have my undivided attention. How does he get the fluoride out of his system?
A: Recommend daily ingestion of Goldenseal root, as well as vinegar and garlic in moderation, along with up to an hour per every two days of light aerobic exercise.
Q: (L) Well, this sounds serious. Anything else that will help?
A: This is a good start. Arkadiusz, or as we like to call him, Arkady, is the primary target of your trio, for now. Great potential dangers lurk...
Q: (L) So this really is like the grail Quest? He has to go through a magic forest, chop heads off dragons, keep his eyes open and not be lead astray by deceptive images and tricks... the whole thing!
A: Where to get the influence for the inspiration behind that story? Imagine how much your cause would be damaged without him? Where would your ambition for the quest go? You must be extremely vigilant when it comes to him and his safety. He still does not completely fathom the depths of the situation. Until he is here, thus more protected, and it will not be easy to get him here, danger awaits the greeting of each new day. Vigilance! Vigilance! Vigilance!!!!!
Q: (L) That is completely depressing. Help me out here!
A: Now... Calm down! No need for depression. Would you rather be left with a lack of knowledge, and in an ever increasing state of false security-oriented oblivion, only to be struck by lightning?!? Of course not!!! So remember... Knowledge protects, ignorance endangers!!
Q: (L) Well, you said that it was going to be difficult for him to get home. The travel arrangements have already been made. Are you saying difficult in a general sense, or is there going to be some major move made, some plan going on at other levels, or behind the scenes, to prevent him? [And there was, as it turned out, but that is another story, best saved for later!]
A: There always is that. Have you not seen the evidence already? Must be aware. Think of it as a war. Expect every possible move/or occurrence. Victory comes from being forewarned, and therefore, forearmed.
Q: (L) Is that, as Frank said, the key? To turn up the vigilance volume to maximum?
A: Always. Don't be like the sentry who fell into a peaceful, pleasure filled, dreamy sleep while on watch! He did not even feel the blade as it pierced his heart!
Q: (L) Well, that is NOT friendly. Now I really AM depressed! Tell me: is what we are doing so important that this kind of energy has to be concentrated on us?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) Can we quit?
A: Look at it this way: make it your goal to succeed, then you have not to fear. Arkadiusz must be made aware that dangers lurk everywhere, potentially. He has spent a lifetime building a strong sense of security, based upon his own natural self assured state of being. But now is the "time" to learn that this is not enough.
Q: (L) Is there any specific danger in Florence that you can point out, or back in Wroclaw?
A: No specific dangers. Just remember: there are forces "out there" that wish to see your project, and you, fail. You two have both previously felt the sting of these forces acutely. He has not so much, until now.
Q: (L) Anything further on this?
A: We could go on and on. The point is: warn Arkadiusz! Knowledge protects...
Q: (L) Well, I certainly will. Could this WM who has just come into the picture be part of the attack forces?
A: Anyone and everyone could be. Remember, they work through persons, they are not normally the persons themselves.

The notion that the process of "graduating" from 3rd density is very much like the stories of the Grail Quest brings up the point that many of the "tests and trials" of the Grail hero involved great deception. He was not just challenged by obviously dangerous or threatening things before his eyes. The greatest dangers came from those ploys and traps that were designed to seduce him through kindness, sympathy, love and beauty! And, it was only AFTER he had made the right choice that the true form of the illusion was revealed to him. He was not granted any "proof" beforehand, nor was he given any insight other than the fact that following the illusion was a distraction from the ultimate goal.

That brings us back to the idea that the so-called aliens, or 4th density beings, work THROUGH humans, via mind programming, emotional manipulation, and other methods. How is one to tell if they are interacting with a disseminator of disinformation posing as a teacher or guru or great saint or channel or even "personal guides?"

One individual suggested that we should be able to separate the reliable sources from disinformation because the latter would be given out by people who had apparent "ego issues," or that they were clearly out "for money."

I would like to suggest just the opposite would be true in the most "hard core" cases. Yes, we have a LOT of folks out there who are stuck in their egos, whose egos are being manipulated to send them out to proclaim this or that teaching involving a hierarchy in which they, naturally, have a very "high" position. Those people who are "in it for the money and the glory" are easy enough to spot if you look close enough. Even Sai Baba has fallen from grace because many people have become aware of the clever shell game of manipulations he has been playing all these years.

But it is the others - the "perfectly programmed" individuals that will be the discerned with only great difficulty. And, the problem we face is the following: they really BELIEVE in what they are saying or doing! They are dedicated and driven to "preach" or convert or suffer and sacrifice for the sake of their message!

Consider the "Unification Church," and its adherents often known colloquially as "Moonies," as an example. Consider the sacrifice and suffering of these people, begging on street corners, witnessing in airports and parks, accosting strangers with their message. Think of the many recent "inside stories" about the ways and means of their "conversions." Think of the fact that they have all more or less given up a "normal life," they have given all they own to their church. They have suffered hunger, cold, sleep deprivation, and so on for the sake of this belief system. They are truly sincere and dedicated. They have no ego at all! Could that be another clue?

Are they programmed in the same way we have been talking about? Are techniques such as the Greenbaum method being used here? The fact is, it isn't even necessary. One good "Master Programmer" can do a lot with an ignorant person.. How do people become "softened up" and "marinated" to be programmed in a more general way by these "Master Programmers?"

Prior to the Second World War, people in the world spent most of their time struggling for the basic necessities of life. The industrial revolution of the previous century was gaining momentum, and through the shifting of the power structure into the hands of America and the ideals of a techno-society, a boom in material goods ensued that put us on a course of post-war affluence and material consumption. (I would like to refer the reader to the The Secret History of The World on this site for some possible prophetic underpinnings to this idea.)

By the end of the 50's, the "high" of being able to pursue life, liberty and happiness (for the majority, though we must note singular exceptions) began to pall on the consciousness of Americans and their global partners in materialism. With full bellies, because there was a "chicken in every pot," and time on their hands, because "Uncle Sam" was taking care of business, the need for bread was satisfied. For the first time in centuries - millennia - people had time to think beyond the struggle to stay alive, and this thinking terrified them! It was like a big, black, empty hole of nothingness into which they found themselves falling with nothing to hang onto but the two cars, single-family home, and yearly vacations. Clearly that was not enough. They now needed a REASON to live.

In 1958, Aldous Huxley wrote Brave New World in which he stated:

The older dictators fell because they never could supply their subjects with enough bread, enough circuses, enough miracles and mysteries. Nor did they possess a really effective system of mind-manipulaton.

Under a scientific dictator, education will really work - with the result that most men and women will grow up to love their servitude and will never dream of revolution. There seems to be no good reason why a thoroughly scientific dictatorship should ever be overthrown.

Obviously, Huxley was paying attention. And so were others.

Suddenly the poets and writers of the "Beat Generation" set off to the East to absorb the spirituality there. Zen Buddhism was promoted through the works of Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac. Alan Watts discovered the benefits of meditation, and the race was on!

Aldous Huxley also made an early connection between psychedelic drugs and the experiences of Eastern Mysticism and this set the consciousness raising bomb off with a BANG! Along came Timothy Leary, Richard Alpert AKA Baba Ram Dass with their LSD and other modes, leading the parade of those who were "turned on, tuned in."

Abraham Maslow became a father figure to the new "wave" of those desiring to fill the gaping hole of their reality with "peak experiences." Maslow cited psychedelic drugs as one of the means in which even ordinary people could have a little of what the Eastern Mystics worked many years to develop. Now, it could be had for a weekend seminar at Big Sur, or a study by mail course at only $29.95 per lesson! What a deal!

Peak Experiences - experience, experience, experience - became the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow of the 1960's. No one needed to live in Existential Despair any longer! Everyone could become a "spiritual voyager" and achieve extended periods in realms of consciousness they had only heard about in veiled, mysterious allusions down through the ages.

Encounter groups, radical therapies, old and new combinations of theories and practice came rolling off the conveyor belt of techno-spirituality. The intangibles of spirit had been harnessed! Anyone could evoke some desirable experience by manipulating awareness at the basic physical and psychological levels. Never mind that all of this bypassed the vital processes of reason and conscious decision making. By its very nature, the whole techno-spiritual machine operated completely without critical thinking; it tapped the bottomless pit of feeling - emotion - primal being. Never mind that much of this emotion was negative, confusing, anxious and fearful! Let's just get it ALL out here in the open and have a party with it!

Each of the many techniques developed during this time was fully capable of producing an emotional high of one sort or another. There were endless "peak experiences," and dramatic "personal breakthroughs." The mixtures of Zen, yoga, meditation, drugs along with strict mechanical technology was a veritable adventure in awareness!

The only problem was: in the midst of all this peaking, mind-blowing, turning on and tuning in, ecstasy and encountering, many people encountered things that, perhaps, ought not have been awakened. Boundaries were breached into unseeable and terrifying realms of consciousness.

So preserve yourselves, my brothers, from the calamities of this place, for distinguishing it is extremely difficult! Souls find it sweet, and then within it they are duped, since they become completely enamored of it. [Al-'Arabi, Futuhat, III 38.23, translated by William Chittick]

Nowadays most people interested in the spirituality of the East desire the "experience," though they may call what they are after intimate communion with God. Those familiar with the standards and norms of spiritual experience set down by disciplined paths like Sufism are usually appalled at the way Westerners seize upon any apparition from the domain outside of normal consciousness as a manifestation of the "spiritual." In fact, there are innumerable realms in the unseen world, some of them far more dangerous than the worst jungles of the visible world. [Chittick, 1989]

Thus, by the end of the decade of the 60's, the "human potential" movement had become a veritable potpourri of religion, science, mysticism, magick and "the occult." The drug use got out of hand, the "techniques" began to show serious flaws in the many tragedies that occurred in any given practice, and the whole idea of human beings becoming "psychic supermen" hit the skids. The promise of the 60's decayed into an aimless lethargy - old hippies living in communes, braiding their gray locks and lusting after the sweet young teeny boppers while they fired up another bong and reminisced about the "good old days" at Esalen.

But wait! Something else happened here! Remember, this is America! The home of the Free - Market that is.

Big business saw a gold mine in the consciousness raising movement of the 60's and we saw the development of slick, newly packaged psychoanalysis and psychodrama! There was mass distribution and Madison Avenue marketing of things like Mind Dynamics, Arica, Silva Mind Control, Transcendental Meditation, and on and on.

And the cults proliferated. Yes, many of the mind-wounded ran straight back into the arms of their childhood faith; but many more became victims of the many up and coming cults that were happy to take them in and patch the holes in their psyches, or fix them up for a few weekends of witnessing on the street corner and some door to door proselytizing. Many of the cults, and even the old time religions, took advantage of the new marketing strategies and polished up their images, sent their people to advertising classes and then out into the world in massive fundraising and recruitment drives. The Hare Krishna group, among others, even hired their own admen!

So, the race was on again! Only now, it was like buying Coca-Cola! The "pause that refreshes" right here in this very tape set, consciousness raising course, or cult practice! It had become a form of spiritual masturbation where everyone was "meeting their own needs" in private. You could put on your strobe glasses, listen to your astral travel tape, channel your very own guides, and get high without ever leaving the farm! You could "change your beliefs," "create your own reality," and indulge your "inner child/ego" by mail, by golly!

What nobody seems to be talking about, however, is the concomitant changes in our world that very well may be the direct result of this so-called "shift in consciousness." Nobody wants to talk about the hard reality of what is really going on out there. One correspondent described it so well that I will reproduce his comments:

I think I am noticing a vast world of things going on that, just a few short years ago, would never have happened. Almost everywhere I look, when I see circumstances and reactions and goings-on, the thought explodes into my head - "What in the world is going on here?"
The modern-day Roman circus spectaculars of Elians, O.J.s and Monicas…
The appeal of today's non-music, music that appeals to the most base of human emotion and response…
The opiate of the mindless drone and flicker of constant television…
The dangled carrot of a manipulated and contrived economy…
The apathy toward the government and their meaningless platitudes…
The increase in violence and attacks from close and least expected sources, which appear to be designed by outside forces to both provide an energy feeding frenzy, as well as, divert those seeking awareness and understanding from a path of discovery…
The dark side of Tesla genius…
The easy access of Internet porn and the proliferation of cyber-sex as an option to replace "real life"

And to the above I would like to add:

One out of every 100 Americans is living in a prison, a figure unprecedented in our history.
The numbers of people on prescription, mind altering drugs is even higher than the number of people in physical prisons.
We are now diagnosing and drugging even our children for behavior that was once considered to be "normal" for a child!
Gang proliferation throughout all levels of society, where once such things existed only among the very poor and disadvantaged.
Violence among children who are becoming violent at younger ages than ever before.
Mass killings have become so common they aren't even reported on the front page anymore!

And, while I have your ear: what's up with the way kids dress nowadays? Well, it's not even just kids - it's ubiquitous! It seems that human beings, under the influence of Madison Avenue and the motivation masters of greed and degradation, get up real early in the morning in order to figure out how to dress themselves, arrange their hair, and decorate their bodies in as repulsive a way as possible!

I am continuously revolted by clerks in stores with multiply pierced body parts, tattoos that look more like dirt smudges or bruises than art, hair that looks like it was arranged by Atilla the Hun or Torquemada, the Grand Inquisitor; make-up that looks like it was applied by Vlad The Impaler. Young people wear clothing that makes them look like rejects from the Oklahoma dust bowl days. Chains and chunks of metal clank from every part of their person as they saunter about displaying their "cool" to their peers, looking more like a combination of a Viking berserker, an ancient Mongol warrior and survivor of a death camp than anything else.

And it's NOT what they claim - "personal expression," - because it is more of a "uniform" than anything else! The demand to have the "same look," the same "brand" of clothing, the same body parts pierced, or to think of new and more bizarre ways to do it, is overwhelming every parent I know. I have had to draw the line in my own house, telling my kids that they won't eat at my table if the way they look makes my stomach churn!

Who or WHAT is inspiring these manifestations of purely barbaric behavior? Who is turning humanity into beings who accept what used to be the trappings of slavery as if it were the latest style? And what's more, to convince them that it is "expressive" or "attractive?" What, in the name of God, is going on when physical self-mutilation and self-defacement, mind numbing and body jarring sounds, and things that are just plain UGLY are considered normal?!!! And, not just "normal," but ATTRACTIVE, for God's sake!

Those who have bought into the "New Age" bonanza seem to have shut off their minds and the effect on their offspring is frightening. They have become part of a reality that is ripe for being taken over by the first "strong man" who comes along with "signs and wonders." When we think back over all of this "awakening of America," we find that the origins of the "movement" are traceable to the "arts." So, let's take another look at something the Cassiopaeans said:

09-21-96
Q: (T) Is there any significance to the ID4 movie?
A: Sure.
Q: (L) What was the primary intention of the makers of this movie? The primary message that they attempted to convey?
A: Infuse thinking patterns with [planchette swirled a few times here] concept of aliens. Part of a larger project called "Project Awaken."
Q: (L) And who is behind, or in charge of, this project?
A: Thor's Pantheum. Subselect trainees for transfer of enlightenment frequency graduation.
Q: (L) Well, is this group STS or STO?
A: Both.
Q: (T) They're working together? Bipartisan?
A: No.
Q: (J) Are they aware of each other? Working on this?
A: Yes. There is more to all of this than you could dream. An army of Aryan psychic projectors.
Q: (L) And what do they project?
A: Themselves... Right in to one's head.
Q: (L) And, when they project themselves right into someone's head, what does that someone perceive?
A: Inspiration.
Q: (L) Inspiration to do something?
A: And...
Q: (L) To do something, and to understand or perceive something?
A: Yes.
Q: So, how many are in this army?
A: 1.6 million.
Q: (L) When they're doing this projecting into someone's head, where are they projecting from?
A: Mostly subterranean.
Q: (L) Are they 3rd or 4th density beings?
A: Both.
Q: (T) Let me back up to a question here. If they can do all this projecting on their own, what was the point of the movie?
A: No, you misunderstand... This is an intense activity, directed towards influencing the high level creative forces.
Q: (L) Was there something subliminal in the movie? That opened something?
A: Sure. Not for you, but for others.
Q: (L) What made us immune?
A: You already have the knowledge.
Q: (L) What are these high level creative forces that are needing to be influenced, or desirable of being influenced?
A: Those in the creative arts.
Q: (L) So in other words this group is using their projecting ability to influence those in the creative arts to produce things that will therefore influence the people on the planet. Is that it?
A: Yes.
Q: ( L) Can we say that they are stimulating people in a positive way?
A: Maybe.
Q: (J) Can we say that they are stimulating people in a negative way?
A: Maybe.
Q: (L) So, there's probably a little of both. And you say that we are immune to it because we already have knowledge. Now, when you say we have knowledge, do you mean just knowledge in particular about aliens and alien realities and alien potentials and so forth?
A: Yes.

Well, that certainly is interesting. But, indeed, we have both STS and STO in operation here. And when you consider the time travel element, well the "game" becomes infinitely more interesting!

In terms of mind programming, this question about what is done via the media always arises. There are many conspiracy theorists who are certain that we are being viciously manipulated in this way. But, the simple fact is: it isn't even necessary to go to such lengths!

11-16-94
Q: (L) We are aware that we are being manipulated by the media. We would like to know what types of methods do they use and what is their objective? What kind of technical means do they use to project mental manipulation by way of TV or movies?
A: Simple bombardment visual and verbal most of the time.
Q: (L) Do they use subliminal implantation of ideas in TV and movies?
A: Yes, but not needed most often.
Q: (L) The music that kids listen to, is there any effort to program them in this media?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) Do they use subliminals there?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) Do they use electronic signals?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) Do they use electronic signals on television programming?
A: Have but not that often.
Q: (L) Is there any signals being sent over the test of the emergency broadcast signal?
A: No.

There are, of course, many skeptics of the idea of alien manipulation, the control system, and even the mind programming experiments of the various human agencies, some of which have been exposed in government documents. Even with the evidence that points in the direction of SOMETHING going on behind the scenes, and this evidence indicating that what is known is only the tip of the iceberg, there are still die-hard skeptics out there doing things that could be not only dangerous to one's health, but actually part of the programming experimentation itself.

12-03-94
Q: (L) I received an article from P about experiments by a fellow named Persinger who has been trying to duplicate the "abduction" experience by subjecting people to EM fields in a sensory deprivation chamber. I would like comments on that, and second...
A: Nonsense, some have closed mind inspired by fear.
Q: (L) My concern is that if he is doing this to people, and we have talked about electromagnetic energy blowing holes in the dimensional boundaries, my concern is that this experimentation could be detrimental to the persons being experimented on; is this a possibility?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) What could be the results of subjecting someone to these electromagnetic fields?
A: Cessation of body.
Q: (L) In other words, it could kill them?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) Could it also open doors between dimensions and allow other things to enter in?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) Could they be subjected to spirit or demonic possession by this method?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) Could they also be being subjected to further programming by aliens through this method?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) Anything else you wish to say on this?
A: Always keep open mind.

Referring back to our little historical discussion above, can we possibly think that all of the "human potential" movement activity was deliberately designed to prepare the meat for roasting, so to speak?

Just exactly how this is done in a more or less "ordinary way," by which I exclude any idea of aliens or secret government projects being involved, follows the same general line as "religious programming" as takes place in churches and evangelist's tents across the country. An interesting series of remarks were made about it by Marjoe Gortner, former Evangelist, in an interview with Flo Conway and Jim Siegelman in their book Snapping:

"As the preacher, I'm working with the crowd, watching the crowd, trying to bring them to that high point at a certain time in the evening. I let everything build up to that moment when they're all in ecstasy. The crowd builds up and you have to watch that you don't stop it. You start off saying you've heard that tonight's going to be a great night; then you begin the whole pitch and keep it rolling."

For Marjoe, who had seen it a million times, the divine moment of religious ecstasy had no mystical quality at all. It was a simple matter of group frenzy that had its counterpart in every crowd.

"It's the same as a rock-and-roll concert. You have an opening number with a strong entrance; then you go through a lot of the old standards, building up to your hit song at the end."

The hit song, however, was spiritual rebirth, the product of a time-tested recipe for evangelical religion to which the preacher and every member of the audience contribute some small but active ingredient. Afterwards, according to Marjoe, the only fitting encore to the overwhelming moment of being saved is a personal demonstration of the power of that newfound faith. This is the motivating factor that prompts speaking in tongues, also known as the 'receiving of the holy ghost.' As Marjoe explained it, this well-known evangelical tradition required even greater participation on the part of the tongues recipient and the entire audience.

"After you've been saved," Marjoe continued, "the next step is what they call 'the infilling of the Holy Spirit.' They say to the new convert, 'Well, now you're saved, but you've got to get the Holy Ghost.' So you come back to get the tongues experience. Some people will get it the same night; others will go for weeks or years before they can speak in tongues. You hear it, you hear everyone at night talking in it in the church, and they're all saying, 'We love you and we hope you're going to get it by tonight.' Then one night you go down there and they all try to get you to get it, and you go into very much of a trance - not quite a frenzy, but it is an incredible experience.

"During that moment the person forgets all about his problems. He is surrounded by people whom he trusts and they're all saying, 'We love you. It's okay. You're accepted in Christ. We're with you, let it go, relax.' And sooner or later, he starts to speak it out and go dut-dut-dut. Then everyone goes, 'That's it! You've got it!' and the button is pushed and he will in fact start to speak in tongues and just take off: dhandayelomosatayleesaso... and on and on."

Marjoe paused. We were dumbfounded by his demonstration, although he hadn't gone into the jerking, trancelike ecstasy that is commonly associated with the tongues moment. ...Yet even in this restrained demonstration, he seemed almost uncannily to be triggering some innate releasing or babbling mechanism. We asked him how he brought it about.

"You'll never get it with that attitude," he joked. Then he went on to explain the true nature of the experience.

"Tongues is something you learn, " he emphasized. "It is a releasing that you teach yourself. You are told by your peers, the church and the Bible - if you accept it literally - that the Holy Ghost spake in another tongue; and you become convinced that it is the ultimate expression of the spirit flowing through you. The first time maybe you'll just go dut-dut-dut-dut and that's about all that will get out. Then you'll hear other people and the next night you may go dut-dut-dut-UM-dut-DEET-dut-dut and it gets a little better. The next thing you know, it's elahandosatelayeekcondelemosandreyaseya... and it's a new languae you've got down."

Except that, according to Marjoe, it's not a real language at all. Contrary to most religious understanding, speaking in tongues is by no means passive spiritual possession. It must be actively acquired and practiced. Although the "gift" of tongues is a product of human and not supernatural origin, Marjoe displayed tremendous respect for the experience as an expression of spirituality and fellowship.

"I really don't put it down," he said. "I never have. It's just that I analyze it and look at it from a very rational point of view. I don't see it as coming from God and say that at a certain point the Holy Spirit zaps you with a super whammy on the head and you've 'gone for tongues' and there it is. Tongues is a process that people build up to. Then, as you start to do something, just as when you practice the scales on the piano, you get better at it."

During his years on the Bible Belt circuit, Marjoe came to see the evangelical experience as a form of popular entertainment, a kind of participatory divine theater that provided its audiences with profound emotional rewards.

"The people out there don't see it as entertainment," he confessed, "although that is in fact the way it is. Those people don't go to movies, they don't go to bars and drink, they don't go to rock-and-roll concerts - but everyone has to have an emotional release. So they go to revivals and they dance around and talk in tongues. It's socially approved and that is their escape.

"It was my duty to give them the best show possible," he said. "Say you've got a timid little preacher in North Carolina or somewhere. He'll bring in visiting evangelists to keep his church going. We'd come in and hit the crowd up and we were superstars. It's the charisma of the evangelist that the audience believes in and comes to see.

"When I was traveling, I'd see someone who wanted to get saved in one of my meetings, and he was so open and bubbly in his desire to get the Holy Ghost. It was wonderful and very fresh. But four years later I'd return and that person might be a hard-nosed intolerant Christian because he was better than anyone who drinks and better than the world because he had Christ. That's when the danger comes in. People want an experience. They want to feel good and their lives can be helped by it. But then as you start moving into the operation of the thing, you get into controlling people and power and money.

"Moon's [Unification Church] is doing the same thing I do, only he's taken it one step further. He's suggesting to people that he IS the Messiah. In my religion, the old-time religion, it's total blasphemy to suggest that. Moon has gone too far, but that's a very heavy number on people, because everyone wants to meet a Messiah."

Marjoe was quick to point out that Moon' preaching powers, like his own, were by no means divine or even innate. Marjoe acknowledged that his power over an audience derived primarily from the skills he perfected as a child, techniques of rhetoric and public speaking that have passed down from the Greeks.

"It's the same whether you're a preacher, a lawyer or a salesman," he told us. "You start off with a person's thought processes and then gradually sway him around to another way of thinking in a very short time."

Many of the techniques he commanded were simple and age-old, but so effective that they proved equally powerful even when an audience had been explicitly forewarned of their use. Toward the end of our conversation, Marjoe told us a story that revealed the fineness of his skills. In contrast to the massive physical experiences, intense group rituals and intimate personal crises that [are popular in the New Age crowd], Marjoe demonstrated how words alone, artfully manipulated, may be used to influence groups and individuals, even to the point of evoking the overwhelming emotional response of being "saved."

"I lecture in about twenty colleges a year," he began, "and I do a faith-healing demonstration - but I always make them ask for it. I tell them that I don't believe in it, that I use a lot of tricks; and the title of the lecture is 'Rhetoric and Charisma,' so I've already told them how large masses are manipulated by a charismatic figure. I've given them the whole rap explaining how it's done, but they still want to see it. So I throw it all right back at them. I say, 'No, you don't really want to see it.' And they say, 'Oh, yes. We do. We do!' And I say, 'But you don't believe in it anyway, so I can't do it.' And they say, 'We believe. We believe!' So after about twenty minutes of this I ask for a volunteer, and I have a girl come up and I say, 'So you want to feel better?' And I say 'You're lying to me! You're just up here for a good time and you want to impress all these people and you want to make an ass out of me and an ass out of this whole thing, so why don't you go back and sit down?' I really get hard on her, and she says, 'No, no, I believe!' And I keep going back and forth until she's almost in tears. And then, even though this is in a college crowd and I'm only doing it as a joke, I just say my same old line, In the name of Jesus! and touch her on the head, and WHAM! they fall down flat every time! [Snapping, Conway and Siegelman, 1978]

So the programming begins. During the early contacts, a potential convert can be manipulated with absolute precision by the rhetorical ploys described by Marjoe. Conversations using similar Neuro Linguistic Programming techniques also build rapport, as does the use of confrontation and direct emotional assault.

Once the individual has been drawn into the teaching, they are bombarded with ideas and doctrines that they cannot fit together while at the same time being led through ceremonies or rituals that induce intense emotional highs and peak experiences.

They are then subjected to more personal encounters in which these experiences are given the prescribed interpretation that is being inculcated. During this period, they are usually involved in intensive repetitive things, which can be as simple as the "order of worship" in an ordinary church. There can be orders to "stand up, sit down, kneel, pray, sing, stand up, sit down, sing, pray" and so on. More intense formats include chanting and meditation that can induce physical and psychic highs. The end result is, of course, that all of this STOPS THE MIND! And when that happens, the individual is completely open to suggestion and command.

The convert is instructed at this time to "refrain from doubt," and "do not question the wisdom of the teaching." The oldest version of this mind program is, of course, what we consider to be the standard religious teachings. But we can certainly see from all of the above that they are as much mind control as any New Age teaching or so-called cult. As a matter of fact, the key to being a Christian is "the surrender of the intellect, the emotions, and the will." To whom? Well, it's said that it is to the "One, True God." But would the "One True God" really forbid doubt and questioning if there was no doubt or question that he WAS the "One, True God?"

In the end, however, the result of all of these programs is the same: under the cumulative pressures of whatever specific mode of programming is employed, the individual's will gives way and they slide into a state of mind in which they literally are no longer capable of thinking for themselves.

This type of comprehensive assault strikes at the very heart of consciousness by undermining the processes of thinking and reflection that are crucial to individual awareness and Free Will.

Yet, the converts and adherents of religions and cults or many "new age teachings," have a different name for what is happening to them: HAPPINESS! They have found PEACE! In the labor for the cult, they are in a daily state of spiritual high, an emotional peak experience that never ends! And, if it does falter for just a moment or two, the leaders and associates work quickly to bolster the high - to get them back down to the church for another infusion! And they go because then they can return to the state of bliss that is their reward or unquestioning devotion.

Successful self-help therapy, religious or New Age philosophy graduates often achieve a sustained state of euphoria. Their problems are solved because - well, because they HAVE no problems! They have stopped worrying about the things that were bothering them. They no longer strive to change and grow and learn and do and accomplish. They are content in their condition of a shutoff mind, their state of not thinking.

Conway and Siegelman ask:

What kind of cultural environment breeds this widespread need to shut off the mind? It could be argued that the need is universal, that everyone -from Athenians to Sufis to voodoo tribesmen to modern Americans - must have some periodic release from the ordeal of being human. In that sense, the rituals and techniques which throughout history have been used to create peak experiences and moments of enlightenment may be looked on as vital sources of rest and relaxation for the mind, momentary breathing spells that hold great powers of insight, healing and renewal.

But what value can there be in engineering these experiences to shut down the workings of the mind altogether, to persistently stunt the processes of thought and leave people numb to their own feelings and the world around them? Throughout history, this systematic stilling of human awareness has proved an efficient method of controlling members of tribes, societies and whole nations in which little value is placed upon individuality. The state of mind it produces has a tradition that dates back to the dawn of civilization.

In the remote bush country of Australia, aboriginal tribes still engage in rituals perfected more than 16,000 years ago to induce a state of mind in their adolescents that is surprisingly similar to the plight of many of society's brightest youth today and people of all ages.

In recent years, aboriginal Dream Time has been hailed as a state of profound sophistication in human awareness. Anthropologists point to the aborigine's physical endurance, spiritual satisfaction and telepathic powers as marks of advanced evolution in a tribe that may represent humankind's longest unbroken line of cultural development. However, they make the error of implying that this efficient and admittedly remarkable form of social control in a primitive, unchanging environment holds some promise for the future of our vastly more complex and fast-changing technological society. [Conway and Siegelman, 1978]

We need to make careful note that this mode of consciousness exists for the very purpose of keeping the aborigine PRIMITIVE and UNCHANGING! It's no surprise that they still live as they did many thousands of years ago. That should give us pause!

In all the world, there is nothing quite so impenetrable as a human mind snapped shut with bliss. No call to reason, no emotional appeal can get through its armor of self-proclaimed joy. [Ibid.]

It doesn't matter who it is, whether it is a graduate of some group therapy, a born-again Christian, a meditator, or the follower of this week's channel o'choice. If you ask a question, the individual will spin around and around in circles of nonsensical beliefs and dogma. If you interrupt and re-ask your question, they simply start right where they left off, or go back to the beginning and start over again.

Such people are not just simply incapable of carrying on a conversation, they are completely programmed. And they don't have to be hauled in by aliens or Dr. Greenbaum to get that way.

Even though they were not talking about the kinds of programming we have been discussing, some of the work of Flo Conway and Jim Siegelman in their book Snapping is applicable to the present problem. They ask:

How do you reach such people? Can they be made to think and feel again? Is there any way to reunite them with their former personalities and the world around them?

A man named Ted Patrick developed the first remedy. A controversial figure dubbed by the cult world Black Lightning, Patrick was the first to point out publicly what the cults were doing to America's youth. He investigated the ploys by which many converts were ensnared and delved into the methods many cults used to manipulate the mind.

...In unsuccessful attempts to free cult members from their invisible prisons, Patrick was repeatedly thrown into real ones. ...In July 1976, ...Patrick was sentenced to serve a year in prison for a cult kidnapping he did not in fact perform. ...Early in 1977, we first visited Ted Patrick in the Theo Lacy Facility of the Orange County Jail to learn about deprogramming from the man who coined the term.

"The cults completely destroy the mind," he said without qualification. "They destroy your ability to question things, and in destroying your ability to think, they also destroy your ability to feel. ...They have the ability to come up to you and talk about anything they feel you're interested in. Their technique is to get your attention, then your trust. The minute they get your trust, just like that they can put you in the cult."

It was the classic sales pitch, carried off so smoothly that it amounted to what Patrick called "on-the-spot hypnosis."

It was in 1971 that Patrick infiltrated the Children of God... In his brief encounter with the Children of God, though he was alert to the cult's tactics, Patrick found that he was not immune to their effects.

"You can feel it coming on," he explained. ..."Thinking, to a cult member is like being stabbed in the heart with a dagger. ... It's very painful because they've been told that the mind is Satan and thinking is the machinery of the Devil. ...When you deprogram people, you FORCE them to think. The only thing I do is shoot them challenging questions. I hit them with things that they haven't been programmed to respond to. I know what the cults do and how they do it, so I shoot them the right questions; and they get frustrated when they can't answer. They think they have the answer, they've been given answers to everything. But I keep them off balance and this forces them to begin questioning, to open their minds. When the mind gets to a certain point, they can see through all the lies that they've been programmed to believe. They realize that they've been duped and they come out of it. Their minds start working again."

That, according to Patrick, was all there was to deprogramming. Yet since Patrick began deprogramming cult members, both the man and his procedure had taken on monstrous proportions in the public eye. ...Cult members had been warned that Black Lightning was an agent of Satan who would subject them to unimaginable tortures to get them to renounce their beliefs. ...No ex-cult member, parent or other reliable witness we talked to ever substantiated any of those charges. In truth, Patrick told us, and others later confirmed, many of the distortions that had been disseminated about the deprogramming were part of a coordinated campaign by several cults to discredit his methods. In the end, he said, the propaganda only worked to his advantage.

"The cults tell them that I rape the women and beat them. They say I lock them in closets and stuff bones down their throats." Patrick laughed. "What they don't know is that they're making my job easier. They come in here frightened to death of me, and then, because of all the stuff they've been told, I can just sit there and look at them and I'll deprogram them just like that. They'll be thinking, What the hell is he going to do now? They're waiting for me to slap them or beat them and already their minds are working."

In the beginning, Patrick admitted, he developed his method by trial and error, attempting to reason with cult members and learning each cult's rituals and beliefs until he cracked the code. Refining his procedure with each case, he came to understand exactly what was needed to pierce the cult's mental shield. Like a diamond cutter he probed with his questions the rough surface of speech and behavior until he found the key point of contention at the center of each cult member's encapsulated beliefs. Once he found that point, Patrick hit it head on, until the entire programmed state of mind gave way, revealing the cult member's original identity and true personality that had become trapped inside.

"The first time I lay eyes on a person," he said, "I can tell if his mind is working or not. Then, as I begin to question him, I can determine exactly how he has been programmed. From then on, it's all a matter of language. It's talking and knowing what to talk about. I start challenging every statement the person makes. I start moving his mind, slowly, pushing it with questions, and I watch every move that mind makes. I know everything it is going to do, and when I hit on that one certain point that strikes home, I push it. I stay with that question - whether it's about God, the Devil or that person's having rejected his parents. I keep pushing and pushing. I don't let him get around it with the lies he's been told. Then there'll be a minute, a second, when the mind snaps, when the person realizes he's been lied to by the cult and he just snaps out of it. It's like turning on the light in a dark room. They're in an almost unconscious state of mind, and then I switch the mind from unconsciousness to consciousness, and it snaps, just like that."

It was Patrick's term for what happens in deprogramming. And in almost every case, according to Patrick, it came about just that suddenly. When deprogramming has been accomplished, the cult member's appearance undergoes a sharp, drastic change. He comes out of his trancelike state and his ability to think for himself is restored.

"It's like seeing a person change from a werewolf into a man. It's a beautiful thing."

Snapping is a phenomenon that appears to have extreme moments at both ends. A moment of sudden, intense change may occur when a person enters a cult, during lectures, rituals and physical ordeals. Another change may take place with equal, or ever greater, abruptness when the subject is deprogrammed and made to think again. Once this breakthrough is achieved, however, the person is not just "snapped out" and home free. Deprogramming always requires a period of rehabilitation to counteract an interim condition Patrick called "floating."

"Deprogramming is like taking a car out of the garage that hasn't been driven for a year," he said. "The battery has gone down, and in order to start it up you've got to put jumper cables on it. It will start up then, but if you turn the key off right away it will go dead again. So you keep the motor running until it builds up its own power. This is what rehabilitation is. Once we get the mind working, we keep it working long enough so that the person gets in the habit of thinking and making decisions again."

"...The grave questions Patrick first flamboyantly brought to public attention are not ones we can choose to like or dislike - nor will they simply go away if we ignore them. Is an individual free to give up his freedom of thought? May a religion, popular therapy, political movement or any other enterprise systematically attack human thought and feeling in the name of God, the pursuit of happiness, personal growths or spiritual fulfillment? These are questions that Americans, perhaps more than others, are not prepared to deal with, because they challenge long-standing constitutional principles and cultural assumptions about the nature of the mind, personality and human freedom itself. ...In a statement more prescient at the time than either of us knew, Patrick became somber, concerned over what he saw as the public's growing apathy in the face of the cult world's increasing wealth, power and social legitimacy.

"The cult movement is the greatest threat and danger to this country that we have ever had. But the people won't wake up, the government, Congress, the Justice Department won't wake up until something bad happens." [Ibid.]

In the period since Patrick said those words, things have gotten worse. We had the Jonestown massacre as well as the suicides of the Solar Temple cult in Switzerland. More recently there was the Heaven's gate mass suicide and the latest massacre of a cult in Africa.

These are, admittedly, extremes, but the fact is that "deprogramming" has not been looked on favorably in this country. Many deprogrammers who followed Patrick have spent years in the courts fighting lawsuits, or years in prisons serving sentences for violating a persons' right to give up their free will to any cult they choose.

But the important thing about the above described "deprogramming process" is that it is a down-to-earth example of what the Cassiopaeans talk about when they say over and over again: Knowledge Protects. Ignorance Endangers. It also exemplifies in a very dramatic way, the process by which the Cassiopaeans communicate! They are deprogramming us!

Over and over again I receive letters from people who want to know WHY the Cassiopaeans won't just answer every question and give them all the "inside scoop" on the nature of the universe.

Well, at this point, we have a pretty good idea that all the "sources" that do exactly that may have an agenda that is not necessarily inclusive of our Free Will! Yes, they may give truth about the cosmos and describe for us the many planes and realities and "laws" and so on and so forth. But, it seems that many of them have done so in such a way as to not only obscure the real things we need to be applying ourselves to here at OUR level, but in ways designed to actually keep us at this level! What good does it do us to know that, at 7th density, all IS ONE, when the lesson of THIS density is to CHOOSE one or the other? It is rather like teaching a child the theory of flying a jet plane when, in actual fact, that child has no access to a jet, and even if he did, would not fit the seat, could not reach the controls, and would have no practical experience to guide him even if he could overcome those difficulties, so that at the first sign of any variable, he would end up in a fiery heap at the end of the runway.

Remember this from Stalking?

The negative guys, on the other hand, play
