Question About Art, Thomas Kinkade & Akiane

Tom: R.I.P Thomas Kinkade a wonderful painter. Kinkade died on Fri. For some reason he is one of the most successful artist ever becoming a mufti-millionaire selling his paintings, yet at the same time is he one of the most criticized artist ever. I read nothing but negative comments about his artwork with the exception of a few nice comments.

JJ, explain why most people seem to dislike the beautiful paintings that Thomas did? Others may disagree.

As an artist, myself, I also get a lot of negative feedback from people, but does that make me an awful artist?

If an artist can be an intinitives like Akiane…in what ways do artist help society?

JJ I’m not a big follower of the art world but do appreciate talent when I see it. I’ve read neither the praise nor the criticism of his art but after looking at some samples I believe I can answer your question.

The quality of his art is very good and distinctive but it reflects conservative values like Norman Rockwell and the Left has a knee jerk reaction to conservative values these days. In their minds it has no value. They see nothing good in the traditional 1950s type of values and will attack anyone who has anything good to say or project of them.

On top of this many become critics of the various arts because of a feeling of superiority and will attack things of value just to illustrate their supposed higher powers of discrimination.

Art helps people to tune into the possibilities of the inner world and renew their spirits.

Ron Paul and Defense

I’ve written quite a bit about Ron Paul but see the discussion is intensifying around him again so I’ll make a few more comments.

The first thing I want to clarify is that it is fine if members here disagree with me. I have no desire to be seen as infallible. I’ll always respect your opinion as long as the discussion remains civil.

Dean says: First comparing Ron Paul back to the days of when Churchill was around and saying he would not have assisted Churchill, to me is really ridiculous. There was different circumstances back then to consider and a different world. He would assist anything that helps with the security of the people. Ron Paul is not totally passive when it comes to defense, and has a rather strong defense plan.

JJ The evidence tells us otherwise. The only time Ron Paul wants to use military force is if an enemy attacks us on U.S. soil and even then he hesitates. After we were attacked on our soil he was opposed to even going after the terrorists in Afghanistan (after 911) until a revolt by his staff changed his vote at the last minute:

Journalist Jeffrey Shapiro posted a 2009 interview he held with Paul, in which he clearly states that if it were up to him at the time, saving the Jews from annihilation in Europe would not have been a moral imperative.

“I asked Congressman Paul: If he were president of the United States during World War II would he have sent American troops to Nazi Germany to save the Jews? And the Congressman answered: No, I wouldn’t”

“I wouldn’t risk American lives to do that. If someone wants to do that on their own because they want to do that, well, that’s fine, but I wouldn’t do that,” Shapiro wrote.

(Like someone on their own was going to make war with Hitler)

Here’s another quote, this time from a former member of Ron Paul’s staff, Eric Dondero:

“Ron Paul is most assuredly an isolationist. He denies this charge vociferously. But I can tell you straight out, I had countless arguments/discussions with him over his personal views. For example, he strenuously does not believe the United States had any business getting involved in fighting Hitler in WWII. He expressed to me countless times, that saving the Jews, was absolutely none of our business. When pressed, he often times brings up conspiracy theories like FDR knew about the attacks of Pearl Harbor weeks before hand, or that WWII was just blowback, for Woodrow Wilson’s foreign policy errors, and such.

“I would challenge him, like for example, what about the instances of German U-boats attacking U.S. ships, or even landing on the coast of North Carolina or Long Island, NY. He’d finally concede that that and only that was reason enough to counter-attack against the Nazis, not any humanitarian causes like preventing the Holocaust.

“There is much more information I could give you on the sheer lunacy of his foreign policy views.”

I can’t support a guy who declares that he would not have lifted a finger to prevent the extermination of an entire race of people. That is taking a black and white position on defense to an extreme – a great extreme.

Presently, the Jews face a similar problem. Iran is attempting to create a nuclear weapons system that will wipe Israel of the face of the map and all Paul has to say about it is that they have a right to nuclear weapons without us interfering.

Yes, we must look to our own self-interests but there are times the Second Key of Judgment must be used and one has to do what he can to save others.

If you come across a bully who is twice your size beating up someone then you may be justified in not interfering because not only will the victim get a beating but you will too.

On the other hand, if you come across a bully smaller and weaker then yourself you have no excuse for not interfering and attempting to stop him.

Iran is smaller and much weaker than ourselves and wants to destroy Israel. We should do what we can to prevent a second holocaust.

Dean quotes me: “He is very secretive and unlike others we have analyzed he is consistently secretive and has thoughts he has never shared with anyone, even close associates. He will deceive when it is necessary to protect objectives he does not want made public. When he seems to be giving starkly open answer he is usually holding back.”

Dean: “Wow lol. Where does this claim of being secretive come from, and how can you make a judgment about him being a deciever when it’s really not based on anything. To me this is slander when you say something about someone that is like an attack when it has no basis. It’s not fair to say when someone seems to be really honest, that it means they’re holding back.”

JJ That was from an analysis of his handwriting and there is quite a bit of evidence that what I said was correct. He has a large number of views that he keeps to himself while running for president. If they were better known his support would be diminished.

He sees Abraham Lincoln as a tyrant and thinks he fought the Civil War to increase the power of government and the civil war was unnecessary. He would not have fought to free the slaves. He thinks the were close to being freed naturally. This is very naive thinking as the South was seeking to expand slavery in all directions in and out of the United States and were not about to let the slaves go free or support any legislation that would allow this.”

I stated in an earlier post that if it ever looked like he was gaining traction that the media would dig into his old newsletters which would reveal some quite controversial views that he has kept secret. This is exactly what happened a few months ago when his popularity was on the rise.

When some apparently racists quotes from the newsletters appeared in the media Paul not only said that he didn’t write them but also said he didn’t even know what was in them because “I never read that stuff,” he said

So are we to believe that he never wrote for or even read the “RON PAUL” Newsletter that spanned the decades of the eighties and nineties?

If this doesn’t verify secretiveness on his part I do not know what does.

On the other hand I agree with many of Paul’s views on personal liberty and creating a responsible budget. However, I think that it would spell disaster to go on the gold standard as he advocates. I do think it is a good idea to buy gold as a hedge, however. I have already thoroughly covered my views on this in an entire treatise that will be included in my soon to be published book. You can read it here:

Secret Society

Rob: What? Is Obama too black to be a secret society member?

JJ Yeah, it’s kind of funny that Obama doesn’t seem to be a member of any secretive organization demonized by conspiracy buffs but he is doing more to destroy the foundations of freedom than any person in a long time.

This is because he is a member of the true conspiracy that operates from an invisible spiritual center and moves its focus around with each rising generation.

Re: Ron Paul and Defense

Keith: Millions of Jews and others died in concentration camps. I do not remember the allies going to war to save the Jewish race. Millions of Russian citizens died in Gulags. I do not remember the allies going to war to prevent Stalin’s genocide. Millions of Armenians were slaughtered by the Turks. I do not remember Britain, France or America coming to their aid. Saving races from genocide has never been an imperative for the west. To hold Ron Paul to such a high standard is ridiculous.

JJ No one said we went to war to save the Jewish race. The atrocities against the Jews were not clear at the time and what was reported was met with skepticism. Few really believed that Hitler could have been so evil as to systematically go about to destroy an entire race of people, especially the people who wrote most of the Bible.

The question was asked through using the benefit of hindsight. We basically fought against Hitler because he posed a great threat to the freedom of Western civilization but once the knowledge became available that Hitler exterminated six million Jews and had a goal to eliminate the whole race throughout the entire world once he conquered it then most people felt that alone would have been reason to act in some way. After all, we have Jews in the United states that Hitler would have had to eventually take out to insure the Arian race remains pure. Then most likely the blacks were next on his list as the Nazi philosophy calls then the “mud people” that are not to pollute the Arians through breeding.

It is well known tat Ron Paul only wants to respond militarily if we are directly attacked on our soil and, as quoted, the Ron Paul staffer said he would not have gone to war against Hitler. Thus the journalist presented to him what we know in hindsight – knowing what we know now – not in 1941. Would you have sent troops “to save the Jews.”

To this question we discover that he would have not gone to war with Hitler because of the threat he posed on the free world and on top of that he wouldn’t have gone to war to save the Jews from annihilation.

From his tone when speaking of things like this I would bet he wouldn’t even have supported economic sanctions, blockades or any moves to hamper Hitler because he believes strongly in non interference.

If Ron Paul was president during world War II he wouldn’t have assisted England in 1939 and Hitler would have won the Battle of Britain and gone on to develop the atomic bomb while Paul would have seen no need for it.

It would not have been long before Hitler would have attacked us with atomic bombs and conquered us and the entire world including Japan. There’s a lot I think FDR did wrong but I’m glad that he was in office instead of Paul during World War II.

Keith Shapiro is just one reporter with an opinion. Is his reporting accurate? Does he have an axe to grind with Ron Paul? Who knows? I am not impressed with hearsay from one reporter and one ex-staffer.

JJ I am inclined to believe that he is telling the truth for several reasons.

(1) His dialog with Paul sounds very similar to other dialog from him that I have read. (2) Paul has issued no statement refuting Shapiro. Most people in Paul’s shoes would defend themselves if incorrectly quoted on such an important subject. If in doubt one could just email Paul and ask him if Shapiro is lying? (3) Paul has never said he would have gone to war to defeat Hitler. (4) Paul was drafted during WWII and did not go voluntarily.

Keith: The newsletters have always sounded like a deliberate hatchet job to me. If the man says he never wrote the ones with racist comments – why don’t we take him at his word?

JJ I do take him at his word on this. No one is saying that he wrote the quoted material. I am saying that it is extreme negligence to say that you have no idea what was in a newsletter named RON PAUL when your name is RON PAUL and you are the publisher of the newsletter. It is also very strange that he says he never even read the statement.

Let us suppose Paul became present and managed the country as he managed his newsletter – we might see something like this:

Reporter: Sir, your Secretary of State threatened the life of the Russian president because he wouldn’t let him carry a gun in the Kremlin. What do you have to say?

Paul: That’s the first I have heard about it. What the secretary does is his business and has nothing to do with me. Next question.

Keith: I do believe he does not disown all of the newsletters.

JJ I am sure you are right but it is very negligent to not know or even agree with what is published under your name with your apparent approval. These articles were not attributed to some staff member but published under Paul’s name giving the impression he wrote them. I’ll tell you this that if I published a J J Dewey Newsletter and allowed someone to write articles as if it were me speaking I would damn well read them and make sure it was in harmony with my thinking. To not do this would be insane.

I would go farther than that. Anything written in the J J Newsletter would actually be my words unless otherwise noted.

Keith: If, Iran gets the bomb they will do what every country does who gets the bomb. Absolutely nothing.

JJ Do you feel comfortable enough in this belief to move to Israel? There is a big difference between Iran and the leaders of the Old Soviet Union, China and others. The Soviet leaders wanted to continue living. Many of the leaders in Iran would be happy to give their lives to destroy Israel and secure a place in heaven. Even North Korea couldn’t find 19 hijackers to give their lives for the cause but it was an easy thing for Islamic fundamentalists to do.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad assisted in the taking of U.S. hostages at the risk of an attack from us that could have taken them out and probably would have if we had any other president but Carter. The leaders there are loose cannons and we have to do what we can to neutralize them.

It’s too bad Obama didn’t lend his support to the rebels in Iran a while back as he did toward the so-called Arab Spring. It is quite possible that the leadership would have been overthrown and we would have much less to worry about. But I think Ron Paul would have taken the same non-action on this as Obama did.

The Majority Speaks

I’ve decided to do some posting on my political site. Read the first one here:

March 16, 2012

After Death

Tom writes: My G- ma died 5 years ago and was wondering if she still remembers me in the afterlife? Does one’s memory vary from area to area like the astral and mental plane?

JJ DK makes an interesting statement about memory in the next world I haven’t read anywhere else. He says we take with us our three most important memories centered around significant life lessons. I believe, however, this applies to us after we have settled down in our designated afterlife and start preparing for the next. Before that we keep our memories until we have our life review and then some time after.

Of course the higher you go in the various levels the more access you have. I would suppose that those in the higher mental and above can access whatever memories they want but these would be the least interested in doing so because they will be centered on the future rather than the past.

Our memories are not lost but stored in our permanent atoms and can be accessed through the soul whenever it may be necessary. This can be done right here in the physical as well as the next world if Higher Will sees it as necessary or if the right process is followed.

Tom If one is in the sleep state or deva or David state…will one still contain memories of their last life on earth?

JJ If one goes to the religious heaven or devachan he will enter a dream world. Just as in a dream you have vague and sometimes inaccurate memories of your waking life even so there you will construct a dream like reality that is linked to this life but not fully connected.

Tom: Another question…Why is some forms of death have to be so awful…imagine being burned to death or chocking to death? Imagine being torture or dying from drowning? Why must some forms of death be so unpleasant?

JJ Two reasons. First, all painful experiences are great learning devices that make us strong people in the long run. Secondly, there are many things about creation and life that couldn’t materialize and evolve any other way than it has. Just like the universe could not exist without gravity we also need the duality of pain and pleasure to fully evolve.

Eventually we will master the dualities so such painful deaths and circumstances will become a thing of the past.

Accessing Past Lives

They can be accessed in some people by hypnosis, guided meditation, regular meditation, suggestive dreaming and intuitively. Also if the soul concludes the seeker needs to know something it will be revealed in some way.

Microwave test – food for thought

Ruth posted some interesting information on microwaving taken from HERE

One side of the microwave debate insists that its use should be avoided at all costs – that any use of it is dangerous. They claim it damages the DNA and alters the food so it is harmful.

I think the truth is somewhat in between.

The site gives an experiment where plants are grown with regular and microwaved water. Ashley then gives us this Snopes reference where another experiment yields no measurable difference.

This reminds me of a time I was talking to a natural health practitioner and she told me that you shouldn’t even heat up water in a microwave. Apparently it changes the polarity of the molecules and makes it dead. She said that microwaved water is so lifeless that it cannot even sprout seeds.

Well, I don’t microwave much food because it just doesn’t taste as good and taste is an indicate of quality, but I do heat up coffee, tea and water in the microwave. I was suspicious so I put her words to the test.

I sorted out two batches of seeds to sprout. For the first batch I used regular water that hadn’t been microwaved and for the second batch I used water that had been liberally boiled in the microwave. I watered the two sets of seeds with the two waters until they reached maturity and couldn’t tell the difference between the two. The lady was definitely wrong about microwaved water not being able to sprout seeds.

As far as its effect on foods go I would like to see more research carried out. My gut feeling is that microwaved food does have drawbacks and is not as good for you as regular cooking but is not as bad as some claim.

I personally use a microwave sparing such as warming liquids and warming food up if in a hurry. I never cook in a microwave.

Why it is ethical to eat meat

I’m entering this post in a contest sponsored by the New York Times. The one who writes the best article on “Why it is ethical to eat meat” will get published there. I am limited to 600 words and could have done the article much more justice with a couple thousand. Here is a preview:

NOTE They didn’t select mine. The winner is posted here.

The winning posted should have been titled “Why it is Ethical to Eat Some Meat.

Animal Destiny

Dan: And for anybody that wonders, we use ZERO chemicals of any kind on them and they eat only their natural food – weeds, leaves and grasses. We do give them free choice salt, minerals and baking soda.

JJ A lot of people do not realize that small farmers like yourself often take better care of animals than many people do their kids and their meat, eggs and milk is better quality than the government certified organic. If you want good meat products just search Craig’s list for a local guy with meat, eggs or milk for sale. Local whole foods markets also often sell products from local farmers.

The Milgram Experiment

The Milgram experiment illustrates perhaps the greatest flaw in our human nature. Most of us desire to conform to authority and associates more than we desire to do the right thing or follow the highest we know. This experiment illustrates how it is that often we see that 100% of the Republicans vote with their side and 100% of the Democrats vote with their side even though one choice is always better for the country than the other.

Here is my original article on the Milgram experiment followed by links to a modern repetition of it.

Date: 14 Dec 1998

A while back Dateline had a special on the power of Authority.

They started the show by showing an old clip from Candid Camera. In this clip the victim of the show entered an elevator with about six other people in it. The funny thing was that the other six (who worked with Candid Camera) were told to face different directions at different times.

Now normally when you are in an elevator you face the door, but this group all faced the inside panel with their backs toward the door. Even though this was very odd the victim did not want to be different so he turned with his back toward the door. Then they showed several clips of the people in the elevator and every time the group turned, the victim turned with them.

It seemed kind of funny and I’m sure the Candid Camera audience got a good laugh out of it, but the reality behind this is the scariest human trait we possess. That is, most of mankind will follow the leader or group even if it makes no sense or if it goes against every moral teaching they have ever been taught.

The second part of the feature had an experiment done with college students. Again they had an unsuspecting victim participating with a group of about a half dozen that knew what was going on. The group was shown a set of four lines and of the four there were two of equal length. They were then asked to pick the two lines that were equal. They showed the lines on TV and it was obvious which two were the correct match.

The next thing they did was to have the planted students all give the same wrong match. Then when it became the victim’s turn you could tell he began to doubt what his eyes and reasoning were telling him. Some of the victims gave the right answer for a round or two but one by one each victim gave in and started giving the wrong answer as the right answer, even though he knew within himself that it was wrong.

The interesting thing about watching their faces on TV was that they all looked a little depressed when they started knowingly giving the wrong answers as right answers. It was almost like the poor kids were selling their souls.

Finally they showed the most alarming experiment of all which was conducted by Stanley Milgram way back in the sixties.

Milgram was curious about how a group of apparently normal people like the Germans could have participated in the Nazi atrocities which was against every moral teaching that they ever believed in. Their excuse was always the same: “I was just following orders..”

Below is a description of the experiment:

<<<In the experiment, so-called “teachers” (who were actually the unknowing subjects of the experiment) were recruited by Milgram. They were asked to administer an electric shock of increasing intensity to a “learner” for each mistake he made during the experiment. The fictitious story given to these “teachers” was that the experiment was exploring effects of punishment (for incorrect responses) on learning behavior. The “teacher” was not aware that the “learner” in the study was actually an actor – – merely indicating discomfort as the “teacher” increased the electric shocks.>

When the “teacher” asked whether increased shocks should be given he/she was verbally encouraged to continue. Sixty-five percent of the “teachers” obeyed orders to punish the learner to the very end of the 450-volt scale! No subject stopped before reaching 300 volts!

At times, the worried “teachers” questioned the experimenter, asking who was responsible for any harmful effects resulting from shocking the learner at such a high level. Upon receiving the answer that the experimenter assumed full responsibility, teachers seemed to accept the response and continue shocking, even though some were obviously extremely uncomfortable in doing so.

What was interesting about watching this on Dateline was that when the subject hit the high voltage the pretended victim screamed like crazy and even said he had a bad heart and that the experiment was killing him.

The subject then turned to the authority as if asking what to do and the authority told him to continue. If the subject seemed to doubt the authority told him that he would take responsibility.

Then the subject continued to shock the supposed victim past 300 volts until he went silent. This indicated the victim was either unconscious or dead. Still the subject did not cease. He continued to increase the voltage clear up to 450 which would mean that if the victim was not dead yet this would surely kill him.

The interesting thing is that if this was a real happening, the subject would not only have killed another human being which was against every teaching that he believed in, but he would have also been brought up on murder charges. It is scary that even that possibility did not deter the subject from following authority.

The funny thing about these experiments is that the scientists predicted that only one out of a thousand would follow an authority to shock up to 450 volts, but 65% went that far and 100% of the subjects went up to 300 volts, which is still enough to kill.

Thus we have a great example of the true mark of the beast on the right hand – the willingness to follow blind authority no matter what the consequences.

The interesting thing is that very few people know themselves well enough to know whether or not they would administer the 300 or more volts to an innocent brother. Most would think that they would never do such a thing, but are they right? Remember, 100% of those in the experiment yielded to the authority.

Even more sinister is the mark in the forehead. Remember the philosophy of Big Brother in the novel 1984? It was not enough that people did as they were told. In addition to this he demanded that they also love Big Brother and totally embrace everything he stood for in their belief system. If someone was caught having independent thought he was not executed immediately. First he had to be brainwashed into loving Big Brother and when the victim demonstrated that he was willing to accept an obvious falsehood from Big Brother with Love, then he was shot, but not before.

Now we must remember that over half of the world’s population is under the direct obvious control of some Big Brother type of government. For these inhabitants there is often no way for immediate escape from the mark of the Beast. They have to at least pretend to go along or they will not be able to get work, will not be able to buy or sell and may wind up executed.

It’s a little different in the Free World. We do not have to receive the mark here; instead, we embrace it by our own free will, just as do the subjects in the Milgram experiment. They were free. They could have gotten up any moment and left, but they did not.

Kyle said that perhaps religion administers the mark of the beast in the free world. Yes, this is true as shown by Jonestown, Heavens Gate and your fanatical neighbor down the street, but this is only part of the mark.

The mark is demonstrated before us right now on TV by the Democrats and Republicans in the impeachment proceedings. Both sides are going along with group thought. I think out of the 435 Representatives only one Republican and no Democrats defied their party thoughtform and authoritative leaders on the last Impeachment vote.

One of about 435 going against accepted authorities. That’s how powerful the beast is! It doesn’t matter to the beast if you are Republican or Democrat, or even which is closer to the truth. What matters is control.

The question we need to ask ourselves is: “Would I be strong enough to be one out of the 435?”

Would we have been strong enough as an early Christian to refuse to acknowledge Caesar as God and allow ourselves to be fed to lions?

Putting religion aside you have to admire these followers of Christ who gave their lives to defy the beast. Their lives were not in vain, for they paved the way to the wounding of the beast. Now finally we are in a point in time and space where the whole beast will be destroyed, but before we can destroy such an enemy we must know and understand what it is and how it functions.

The beast, as a whole, is not a country or anything physical, but is blind authority and is demonstrated by the “blind following the blind.”

The beast is destroyed by opening the eyes of the blind, and this we shall do with power and great glory, but first we must open our own eyes to the one authority – the Spirit of God within us.

They did a modern version of the Milgram experiment. Check out this three part video.

The Aura

Sarah wrote the following:

Yesterday, my sweetheart, Nick and I went the Mind, Body, Spirit Expo in Chicago. We had our auras photographed! I have wanted to have this done for the past couple years. What do you think?

I have been very task oriented lately, as I have really begun laying the ground work for my book, “Restoring the Years the Locusts Ate: An Artist’s Tale of the Road to Madness and Back”. Freeread.com will be mentioned in the later healing chapters. I don’t know when it will be finished, but I will by 28 in May and as I am entering in the Return of Saturn I am feeling a lot of Mars energy. I have about 14,000 words written so far.

The coolest thing about all of this is that when Nick’s photo came out, the husband said, “Wow! You have a lot of unconditional love…you must have a very big heart!” His wife stopped talking to the person she was talking to and looked at Nick’s photo and said, “Oh my gosh….We have never ever seen one like that…and we’ve seen thousands of these.” They were thoroughly impressed, as they just stopped and gazed at his photo for a minute in awe. I was not surprised. Please note the area in front of Nick’s chin/throat/chest”it is white. They said his aura was so unusual because he was so grounded yet so spiritual at the same time. I knew right when I saw it that it was unique…the magenta is very, very vivid. We all know Nicky has a very large heart!

Nick took me in and nursed me back to health 2 1/2 years ago, as I was on drugs, medications, and had just come out of an abusive marriage. He took care of me while I detoxed for months…paying my bills, and giving me emotional support to get through it.

Aura Photos:

JJ Thanks for sharing this with us Sarah.

When I was younger I placed quite a bit of attention on developing the power to see auras. I got quite good at it and then moved my attention to other things. I found I could use my intuition to gain the discernment that I needed. I still see auras now and then but I’m not as sensitive as I used to be when I practiced regularly.

I’m glad you posted this because it is an improvement over what was claimed to be auric photography a few years ago. A lot of it then were variations of kirlian photography which captures energy radiating from the etheric body and is not part of the aura. In addition a lot of what has been claimed to be photographing the aura has been faked. I knew a lady back in the eighties who was frustrated that she couldn’t capture the aura so she planned on creating a fake device.

The main evidence I look for in the validity of aura photography is whether the images match what I have actually seen. It looks to me that the photos you had done does indeed capture the aura in part.

There are several layers to the aura and when the seer places attention on one part the other parts may not come into focus.

The first light one will see will be the etheric which only extends a few millimeters from the skin. The next thing to see are the auric colors which usually extend from 6-12 inches from the skin. When seen clearly these are sometime quite spectacular and very bright like neon colors. Next out you have the circulating energy which is egg shaped and extends about an arm’s length from the body.

The final and by far the most difficult thing to see, which I have never heard anyone claim to capture on camera, is the film at the edge of the auric egg. On this one’s thoughts are projected in the language of geometric forms.

It looks like Sarah’s photographer captured a composite of some of the auric light mixed with the film of the revolving energy. It appears that the outer film acted like a filter dimming and blurring the inner colors of the aura.

Even so, Nick had a nice bright violet color exposed to the camera. This is a good color to have as it denotes sincerity and devotion to high ideals. Violet seems to be the only color of the aura that was captured in purity. I’m sure there are other neon like colors if vision could look through and filter out the auric egg.

More on Auras

Sarah writes: One question,…is it possible I have a dense shield around my aura for protection?

JJ I haven’t seen anything in auras that would indicate an existing shield. The disciple is best shielded from negativity by being positive himself and the well-protected positive person will have a vibrant etheric body and strong extending colors in his aura.

After checking out auric photography on the web it appears that the outer part of most people’s aura creates kind of a mist that prevents the inner colors from being accurately filmed. Your boyfriend seemed to be the exception in that his violet color was so extended that the camera caught it.

In addition we do have built in protection in our etheric webbing around our centers. This prevents too much energy being released at once as the centers are opening up.

Kelly writes: The geometric form makes me truly wonder about whether or not I am seeing part of this. I had done visualization exercises a very long time ago and since then I see these triangle prism-like forms pop a little far off around the head of people while conversing with them. The triangle prism have a strong light to them that make them stand out. I can’t look straight into the prism cause otherwise it disappears. I don’t even know if it is in my own auric field or the other person’s I am noticing this. It could be something else but I always wondered.

Could this be part of the geometric language of thought?

JJ Yes, it very well could be. Not very many people have seen these geometric forms as they are difficult to see and yes if you single them out they will disappear. To keep seeing them you have to practice the art which I call “not seeing.” To do this you have to look without giving the object any conscious attention, as if you are not looking or couldn’t care less if you see something or not.

What you saw could be in the outer part of your aura or in the other persons. If the person moved and the image moved with him t then it probably belonged to him.

I found it interesting that auras can be seen in a mirror and when learning to see them I spent quite a bit of time in front of the mirror looking at my own. You might try looking at your auric space in a mirror and see if any geometric forms materialize. I haven’t seen these forms reflected in a mirror but once you see your own aura in a mirror your sensitivity may be increased enough to see the forms in front of you.

I also sometimes see them as I am waking up from sleep when I am in that zone where I am between sleep and being awake. When you are in this state try and look at the edge of your aura and see what is there. It is best to keep your eyes closed when in this semi sleeping situation.

Re: More on Auras

I wrote” “In addition we do have built in protection in our etheric webbing around our centers. This prevents too much energy being released at once as the centers are opening up.”

Jerry responded: Question. Why do we need “protection” from to much energy being released at once? Is this a danger to ourselves or others in some way? And is the energy being released from our centers as they open up lost or is a perpetual energy?

JJ When the petals of the lotuses of the centers unfold new energies are released and they take some getting used to because they heighten the vibration of the physical, astral and sometimes mental bodies.

The seeker has a difficult enough time with a natural release of new energies. Sometimes he may open one new energy in a lifetime and other times several. Those not so far along the path may go several lifetimes without releasing new energies.

In a normal release the seeker may experience the following.

(1) A tingling feeling around the center which is opening up. (2) Strange unexplainable feelings like he is fading away or feeling like he may pass out.

(3) Inner lights when his eyes are closed.

(4) Visions

(5) A sense that God or some high being wants to communicate with him.

(6) Health problems centered in the organs or area connected to the stimulated center.

(7) A sense of euphoria.

These and other symptoms will occur until the seeker adjusts to the new energies. After the adjustment, which may take a couple years, he will the feel somewhat normal again but have an increase in abilities in certain areas.

If the seeker lives a normal life the above will be the worst that will happen, but if he places too much concentration on the opening center and forces the flow then he will face the following dangers.

(1) Delusions of grandeur.

(2) The energy will be so powerful he will come close to madness.

(3) A few will actually go insane.

(4) In the worst case scenario he could die.

For our protection we all have protective webbing between our various centers that helps to limit the circulation of new energies. When the energy is mastered then the webbing dissolves. If powerful mediation destroys the webbing early then the seeker will face various dangers.

To help understand the new energies visualize the problems a deep-sea diver has as he attempts to rise to the surface. His body has adjusted to the great pressure of the deep and if he rises too fast his body cannot adjust and he is in danger of sickness or death. To solve the problem he rises slowly to the surface and gives his body time to adjust to the lighter pressure.

Even so, we are in the dense physical and when we seek to rise to the higher spiritual levels we have to make adjustments also. If we rise up slowly then we will have time to safely adjust but if we rise too fast into the higher spiritual energies we will encounter a number of dangers.

Jerry wants to know if the new energies are “lost or is a perpetual energy”

Our centers are linked to the world of Spirit and the spiritual energies are always there. The seeker just doesn’t have access until his energy petals open up. After they open the energy that is always in circulation then becomes available from that point on unless the seeker rebels against the light.

Adjusting to New Energies

Jerry writes: Lets say someone has “places too much concentration on the opening center and forces the flow then he will face the following dangers.” Is there a way to stop/contain it and place a protection/shield around it again or is the person simple doomed to one of the four results you listed?

JJ Unless a person has done some type of meditation or breathing exercise with too much emphasis on certain centers or focused with great emphasis on the need for power he is likely to safely pass through the opening of the centers that occur in his lifetime.

But keep in mind that even if he is doing everything right the opening of one or more of the petals can be stressful and perplexing.

Once the protective webbing has been removed there is no putting it back. If the seeker has released too much energy the key is to learn to adjust to it. Over a period of time the disciple will adapt and things will seem normal again. Lifting a weight may be difficult at first but when strength is increased it may then become easy. When spiritual strength is increased the seeker can then handle the new energy.

Jerry: What center would have opened if the individual was having symptoms of Mono, extreme fatigue, and a feeling of being overwhelmed and what can be done?

JJ Those symptoms could be caused by some physical imbalance or deficiency.

If we assume that one of the centers is causing the problem then there is no way to positively identify which one on this much information as several centers can produce something like this. It is most likely that it is the heart center though as an over release of energy there can produce what you describe. By paying attention to the energy flow within your body you may get clues as to which center is involved.

If the problem mentioned is caused by an energy release through a center you can assist by doing the following:

(1) Do not fight it or let it cause you to fear. The more you resist the stranger you will feel.

(2) Note that the feelings you have are there and continue with your life as if everything is normal. Put your attention on enjoying life and this will quicken the adjustment.

(3) Do everything you can to maximize your physical health. Get lots of exercise and good nutrition. Pay particular attention to normalizing your blood sugar. Cut out all refined sugars. Eat whole grain bread with no more than 2 grams of sugar per slice.

(4) Cease all meditation, except for short prayers, until the energy flow seems normal.

(5) Each new energy is pushing you toward learning something new. Tune into your soul and attempt to discover your next step. If you are moving toward that step normalization will come much quicker.

Hope this helps.

The Fracking Truth!

This was written by an environmental activist so he wants to raise concerns about anything that penetrates mother earth. Here is a good piece of information from a scientific publication:

Fracking does cause minor earthquakes, but these “fraques” are comparable in size to the frequent minor quakes caused by coal mining. What’s more, they originate much deeper in the crust so have all but dissipated by the time they reach the surface.

Astrological Influences

Tom writes: JJ has said that Astrology can influence one up to 25-30% if it is their sun sign.

JJ Let me clarify this. Your sun sign is one astrological influence out of many. Even though it is one out of many it is the most potent influence, making up somewhere around 25-30% of the total astrological influences on the individual.

Tom: I have been studying famous people born under my sign of Pisces. I am a bit confused as Dee Snider (Heavy Metal rocker from Twisted Sister), Andrew Jackson, Wyatt Earp and George Washington and were all tough guys. The trouble is I am not one and more on the shy mellow type that likes to relax and not be bothered. The above tough guys are all born under my sun sign. I not the Wyatt Earp type who was a fearless gunslinger in the Wild Wild West. How come people born under the same sun sign may seem very different in personalities? Due note another famous Pisces Einstein had a personality very different than Wyatt Earp

JJ Astrological influences are just that – influences. An influence is not you. You react to influences.

All the billions of people on earth have, in one life or another, been born under a Pisces sun as well as all the other eleven signs. If a person has developed courage under one sign then he will have it in another. The same goes with other qualities such as intelligence, honesty, love etc.

The key to understanding astrology is that you are not created from its forces, but merely influenced by them.

Let us take three of the people you mentioned – Wyatt Earp, Washington and Einstein. Let us imagine these three in different situations which have different influences such as.

(1) Stranded on a south sea island with a dozen beautiful sex starved women.

(2) Attending a rock concert.

(3) Their neighbor’s dog barks for hours on end.

(4) They win a lottery.

(5) They haven’t eaten for three days.

No two people will react exactly the same to these influences. Even so, no two individuals react the same to the influences of the sun or even all the astrological influences if they were born at the same time .

The influence of Pisces pushes the seeker to sacrifice the unnecessary things in life so he can concentrate on the essentials and move forward in his progression. Since no two people are alike no two people will handler this energy exactly the same.

Even though no two people handle influences the same there are some common reactions to strong influences.

For instance, a neighbor’s barking dog is bound to disturb Wyatt Earp, Washington and Einstein. After it barked for so long they all three would most likely take some type of action. Maybe Earp would shoot the dog, Washington would go talk with the owner and Einstein may complain to authorities. The influence effects them all but they use their own power of decision in handling in their own way.

Even so, three people may have similar astrological forces influencing them but they react in different ways to them. They are not the forces around them but react to the forces.

We also need to take into consideration that there are many astrological forces besides Pisces influencing someone born under that sign. There are different energies within the sun sign itself. For instance, those born in the first ten degrees of Pisces are influenced strongly by Neptune and Jupiter. Those born in the second ten egress, or second Decan, are influenced by the moon and those in the third ten degrees by Pluto and Mars.

In addition to this you have the influences of the moon and planets at the time of birth as well as the twelve houses determined by the time of day you were born.

Now even though an outside force influences you, you still have free will to ignore it or handle it gracefully. You can wear earplugs and ignore the dog or do something about it. The choice is yours. You and the barking dog are not one and the same.

A question to JJ on Astrology

RJ: how can we determine our sun sign, moon sign, rising sign? I am new to astrology and i need help. I was born on Dec. 17, 1959 at 11.00 A.M..

The Key of Judgment

Ruth: In hindsight, I bet she (Ann Coulter) can be quite emotional when she wants to be, when no one is around. I’m sure she has her moments like every other woman on earth does.

JJ I was talking about her emotional control in public when she is attacked, which she often is. She handles most personal attacks with logic rather than strong emotional response.

I believe she has a highly charged emotional self and is very passionate, but able to control how she presents herself.

I see that men treat her different in an argument than they do other men. When she has an argument with a man on TV she is interrupted twice as much as the same man will interrupt a man with whom he disagrees. They also talk at the same time she is talking much more than they do with other men. Bill O’Reilly is a good example of this. He seems to interrupt her much more than he does a comparable man.

Yet, I’ve never seen her complain about being disadvantaged for being a woman. Instead, I have watched her evolve and deal with this problem by putting men in their place more when they do this.

Instead of saying: “You’re treating me differently because I am a woman,” she will firmly say, “It’s my turn to talk, thank you,” or something that tends to make the guy realize what he is doing.

Ruth: I thought that in practicing harmlessness, then one should not attack others personally, whether they deserve it or not?

JJ I wasn’t taking about personal attacks but attacks on what one considers to be illusionary thinking or bad ideas. All attacks must be measure and used with the second key of judgment. Many attack on a knee jerk basis whenever the opportunity arises. This is not the path of harmlessness. An attack must be decided upon using the Second Key of Judgment. There is a time and place for all things and good judgment tells us that attacks on ideas must be reasonable and effective and personal attacks should be few, but enlightening when they come.

Ruth: It seems that it is okay to attack some people when they deserve it. There must be some sort of fine line between attacking others and practicing harmlessness that I just can’t seem to grasp?

JJ The right idea is to always use the Second Key of Judgment.

If one thinks he can follow the path of harmlessness through the implementation of black and white rules the he is badly mistaken.

For instance, many pacifists think they are taking the harmless route by siding with the avoidance of conflict no matter what. Pacifism was very popular just before World War II and the pacifists cheered Chamberlain when he gave away Czechoslovakia in a deal with Hitler and proclaimed he had established “Peace in our time.”

Parades were held for the guy and he was a hero to pacifists until Hitler started WWII by invading Poland. On hindsight he is seen by history as a great buffoon, an embarrassment to humankind.

What was the more harmless route? To use a little force to put Hitler in his place and save millions of lives or to go for superficial harmlessness and go along with Hitler.

One can see here how crucial is the Key of Judgment for one cannot attack every tyrant who poses a risk, but there are times when judgment decrees that such should be done. Hitler had already laid out his plans for conquest and the elimination of the Jews. Judgment should have decreed that it was not the path of harmlessness to allow him to become the most powerful nation on earth – or to just give him an entire nation to feed his source of power.

Sometimes a bully must be firmly put in his place so he will not bully again – so real harmlessness can prevail. BUT we can’t use this as an excuse to attack whenever the emotional self feels like it. Good judgment, always, must prevail in the end.

Global Warming

I’m sending off another letter to my local paper. Unfortunately, I am limited to 200 words or less so I had to be concise.

Here it is:

The Statesman on Feb 26 published an article by two environmental activists declaring the usual mantra: “The scientific community has reached a consensus on climate change.”

This statement is followed with a plan to socially indoctrinate America so this “truth” will never be questioned again.

Anyone who has studied basic science knows that there is no consensus on many parts of the argument. Even so let us see where real consensus does lie:

(1) There is climate change. 99.99% of scientists and the public believe the climate has been changing since the beginning of the earth. Climate change deniers virtually do not exist – like the bogyman.

(2) Global warming has leveled off since 1998 with 2011 being cooler than 1998.

(3) The first great surge of human produced CO2 from 1940 to 1976 mysteriously resulted in global cooling rather than warming.

(4) Global warming is less destructive than global cooling.

(5) Since CO2 is a plant fertilizer there are benefits to CO2 emissions such as a greener more productive earth.

(6) Nuclear power is low risk and has reduced CO2 emissions more than all green sources combined yet most environmentalists refuse to go with this consensus to reduce emissions.

Is This a Man From Future?

Feb 7, 2012

Minority/Majority rule

LWK Almost all Utopian schemes imagine some alternative rational or scientific method of running society, but in the end they always end up with some group of people telling other people what to do.

JJ The big problem with utopian schemes is that free will is drastically limited from the planning stage. A free society is actually the best utopian scheme one could come up with. As long as freedom dominates living conditions will get better and better until we will have a virtual utopia.

JJ on Capitalism/Socialism

A number of people have speculated as to the Constitution of a future Zion, but we are a long way from having a need for a specific one so whatever we create now will probably undergo some changes when the time comes. Right now we can be a little like John Locke or Montesquieu and write about the principles that will govern future society in the hope that the best ideas will prevail. I am sure some of the items you list will be incorporated in some way. I think that what you said about juries having power to negate law would be particularly important to have in any future constitution because any law written is not perfect. I doubt if I will ever write an actual constitution for a future society but will most likely lay out some guiding principles that I hope to see

For food for thought here is a Constitution written by another LDS thinker, Joel Skousen.

Re: Force/Free Will

LWK writes: In Nazi Germany it was scientifically concluded that mental defectives should be eliminated. It was not an arbitrary decision, but rather a very scientific decision. Initially they put them in the back of closed trucks where the exhaust gas was forced into the closed area and drove around until they suffocated. Later on they came up with even more scientific methods.

JJ That’s one I have never heard before. Sadly this is a believable story when considering the Nazi mindset.

Re: Woodrow Wilson Quote and Fiat Money

Susan: I trust my connection to God and to think for myself. JJ is an earned authority for me in many areas. Perhaps it is ok with JJ for me to disagree and so I take the opportunity to speak my mind when something strikes me as important to a discussion. If you don’t like it, PLEASE delete it.

JJ I have no problem with anyone disagreeing with me and voicing it here as long as they are civil. Some of my best writings have been in response to some challenge from members and some of the most trusted members here have voiced string disagreements with me at one time or another. Freedom of expression without fear of being condemned by the leader is one things that sets this group apart. Many teachers do not allow for disagreement. We do not want to take that route. As Larry indicated this creates some problems for the teacher, but that is okay with me. Better to have a living group than a stagnating one.

As far as disagreements with my writings on fiat money goes one of the main problems is my detractors lump all fiat money into one category whereas I place them in two categories:

(1) Fiat Money created by a third party through loans to the government and people at interest. This can create an unsustainable debt.

(2) Fiat money created by the representatives of the people tat has no interest and is not a loan.

I teach that this second category can become the best of all money systems as long as inflation is controlled.

And It Came to Pass

The other Ruth (Ruthangel) send me a cute post written in Biblical style by a minister’s wife.

AND IT CAME TO PASS

And it came to pass in the Age of Insanity that the people of the land called America, having lost their morals, their initiative, and their Will to defend their liberties, chose as their Supreme Leader that Person known as “The One.”

He emerged from the vapors with a message that had no meaning; but He Hypnotized the people telling them, “I am sent to save you.” My lack Of experience, my questionable ethics, my monstrous ego, and my Association with evil doers are of no consequence. I shall save you With hope and Change. Go, therefore, and proclaim throughout the Land that he who proceeded me is evil, that he has defiled the nation, And that all he has built must be destroyed.

And the people rejoiced, For even though they knew not what “The One” would do, he had promised that it was good; and they believed. And “The One” said “We live in the greatest country in the world. Help me change everything about it!” And the people said, “Hallelujah! Change is good!” Then He said, “We are going to tax the rich fat-cats.” And the People said “Sock it to them!” “And redistribute their wealth.” And the people said, “Show us the money!” And then he said, “Redistribution of wealth is good for everybody..”

And Joe the plumber asked, “Are you kidding me? You’re going to Steal my money and give it to the deadbeats??” And “The One”Ridiculed and taunted him, and Joe ‘s personal records were hacked and publicized. One lone reporter asked, “Isn’t that Marxist policy?” And she was Banished from the kingdom.

Then a citizen asked, “With no foreign relations experience and Having zero military experience or knowledge, how will you deal with Radical terrorists?” And “The One” said, “Simple. I shall sit with Them and talk with them and show them how nice we really are; And they Will forget that they ever wanted to kill us all!” And the people Said, “Hallelujah!! We are safe at last, and we can beat our weapons into free cars for the people!”

Then “The One” said “I shall give 95% of you lower taxes.” And one, Lone voice said, “But 40% of us don’t pay ANY taxes. ” So “The One” Said, “Then I shall give you some of the taxes the fat-cats pay!” And the people said, “Hallelujah! Show us the money!” Then “The One” said, “I shall tax your Capital Gains when you sell Your homes!” And the people yawned and the slumping housing market Collapsed. And He said. “I shall mandate employer-funded health care For every worker and raise the minimum wage. And I shall give every person unlimited healthcare and medicine and transportation to the Clinics.” (And no Muslim shall pay for their share of healthcare.) And the people said, “Give me some of that!” Then he said, “I shall penalize employers who ship jobs overseas.” And the people said, “Where’s my rebate check?”

Then “The One” said, “I shall bankrupt the coal industry and Electricity rates will skyrocket!” And the people said, “Coal is Dirty, coal is evil, no more coal! But we don’t care for that part about higher electric rates. “So “The One” said, Not to worry. If your rebate isn’t enough to cover your expenses, we shall bail you out. Just sign up with the ACORN and you troubles are over!” Then He said, “Illegal immigrants feel scorned and slighted. Let’s Grant them amnesty, Social Security, free education, free lunches, Free medical care, bilingual signs and guaranteed housing… ” And The people said, “Hallelujah!” and they made him king!

And so it came to pass that employers, facing spiraling costs And Ever-higher taxes, raised their prices and laid off workers. Others simply gave up and went out of business and the economy sank like unto a rock dropped from a cliff. The bank banking industry was destroyed. Manufacturing slowed to a crawl. And more of the people were without a means of support.

Then “The One” said, “I am the “the One”- The “Messiah” and I’m here to save you! We shall just print more money so everyone will have enough!” But our foreign trading partners said unto Him. “Wait a Minute. Your dollar is not worth a pile of camel dung! You will have to pay more… And “The One” said, “Wait a minute. That is unfair!!” And the world said, “Neither are these other idiotic programs you have embraced. Lo, you have become a socialist state and a second-rate power. Now you shall play by our rules!”

And the people cried out, “Alas, alas!! What have we done?” But yea, verily, it was too late. The people set upon The One and spat upon him and stoned him, and his name was dung. And the once mighty nation was no more; and the once proud people were without sustenance or shelter or hope. And the Change “The One” had given them was as like unto a poison that had destroyed them and like a whirlwind that consumed all that they had built.

And the people beat their chests in despair and cried out in anguish, “give us back our nation and our pride and our hope!!” But it was too late, and their homeland was no more.

Reflections on Inelia Benz

A couple days ago Kelly asked about Inelia Benz and this stirred up quite a lot of discussion so I thought I would make a few comments.

First I had to check out some of her teachings. I watched the video recommended by Alex and read the transcript of the video recommended by Kelly.

Her basic message is this. She incarnated to assist in raising the vibration of the people on this planet so we can effectively transition into a new age of peace.

I have no problem with this message as this is also one of the reasons I am here and I’m sure some members of the group feel it is a reason they are here also.

As long as she keeps this as her main goal and follows it to the highest she knows then I wish her Godspeed.

Whenever a teacher manifests before the public eye true seekers will always take a look with a mind open to the possibility that he or she may be an agent of light or a deceiver of the darkest dye – or someone in between.

Unless I receive some evidence to the contrary I take Inelia at her word that she is here to serve and assist humanity.

I am encouraged by the fact that she is a big believer in free will and expanding it. She presents a teaching that I have given that if we do not make decisions then someone else will be making them for us.

She presents several teachings to do not sound right to me.

She says there are an infinite number of parallel universes where each of us live in slightly different realities. For example, in Universe A there is a famous JJ and in Universe B there is one that is an unknown homeless guy. Then there’s another universe where I’m still with my first wife and never met Artie – my current wife – poor guy.

The point to consider here is that creation, especially the creation of a universe, takes a lot of effort and creators only put a lot of effort into creation when there is a significant purpose. I don’t see much purpose being served by the Creators in making infinite numbers universes with the same people doing just slightly different things. As it is, this one universe is vast enough to give the Life of God a chance to experience every possibility through the many trillions of lives in it. He doesn’t need a billion or so variations of me running around.

She tells us she is a unique being who has never incarnated into this universe before. She has no past lives but incarnated directly from the mind of God.

We always have to take into account that anything is possible but in my view the most likely truth is she has incarnated here many times but has reflected so strongly on God that she sees herself as an extension of Him in a way that others are not.

This teaching is the biggest red flag because even if she truly seeks to help others this may cause followers to see her as an outside source of God rather than looking within. This could cause her to become the Beast to her followers unless she does all in her power to teach them to rely on the inner God rather than the outer.

She says there are millions of others who are helping to raise the vibration of the planet but is not clear if there are others like her with no past lives who came directly from God. If she sees herself as a totally unique being she could be creating many glamours that will need to be dealt with as well as illusion.

Overall, she seems a pleasant person who is attempting to serve so I will not be overly concerned about her unless some good reason were to manifest.

She does have a course she sells for $99. Because of this some have accused her of being in the work for the money but every work does need t bring in some money.

Here are the ingredients in the course:

1. Unit One – An Introduction – Listen to the Introduction NOW. Spiritual Ascension Course Sample

2. Unit Two – Setting of Goals

3. Unit Three – Main Goals Exercise

4. Unit Four – Specific Goals Exercise

5. Unit Five – Detoxifying the Physical Body

6. Unit Six – Reconnecting with the Physical Body

8. Unit Eight – Healing the Ego

9. Unit Nine – Identifying and Embracing the Ego

10. Unit Ten – The Mental Body

11. Unit Eleven – Identifying the Mind

12. Unit Twelve – Silencing the Mind Through Breath Meditation

17. Unit Seventeen – Aligning Our Bodies

18. Unit Eighteen – Expansion Of Awareness

19. Unit Nineteen – Expansion Of Awareness into Oneness

20. Bonus Unit Dealing with Sickness during Ascension Work

If anyone has taken or takes this course in the future I’m sure the group would be interested in a report.

Gathering of Lights 2012

May 7, 2012May 7, 2012 Joseph Dewey

This entry is part 15 of 40 in the series 2012A

Come to Boise and learn directly from JJ for three days

The time of this year’s gathering is approaching. If you plan on coming please let us know as soon as possible.

We have reserved June 22-24 for the gathering date again this year; similar to the time we did last year at the same location.

The 2012 gathering will start Friday June 22 at 6 PM and the meeting room will open around 5 PM. If you arrive on the 22nd instead of the 21st you can save a day’s room rent. The gathering will officially end around 4 PM Sunday the 24th, but if everyone is in the mood it could go on longer as it has in the past.

The Keynote of the gathering will be:

Are our pet beliefs true or false?

We will examine the following as time permits:

Have humans been here thousands, millions or billions of years?
Duality is two sides of the same coin. There is no good or evil.
There are no accidents
There are no coincidences
It was meant to be
We should go with the flow
Life isn’t fair
There is a reason for everything
Time and purpose for everything
The cost of freedom is eternal vigilance
The ends do not justify the means
Does everyone follow their self interest and therefore are selfish?
Where is the middle way?
Where do you draw the line on behavior
You find what you are looking for.
Do not Judge

Then we’ll do various types of group work, meditations, past life regression and what happens between lives.

LOCATION

The location will be the Best Western Vista Inn. We received very favorable comments on this location the past couple years. The rates range from about $64-$75 for a room for up to two people.

There are plenty of restaurants nearby and it is right next to a Kopper Kitchen and across the street from Dennys.

The charge for attending will be the same as last year. Singles will cost $60 and for couples the charge will be $109.

Thought it would be a good idea to post these again. In these days of discord it is a good idea to be reminded that most agree on many important points.

(1) I accept the idea of peaceful co-existence as an ideal for which to strive and realize that the majority of people wish to live in peace despite their differing beliefs.

(2) I acknowledge that there exists a higher intelligence which most of us call GOD by various names.

(3) Even though this Being or Intelligence is called by differing names and descriptions I acknowledge that this same God is over all mankind and that we are children of God and brothers and sisters. Essentially, humanity is one family.

(4) I believe that the will of God would include the best possible outcome for all of humanity. The goal of “Peace on Earth, Goodwill to Humankind” is a goal I embrace.

(5) I embrace the principle of Love and seek to love my neighbor as I do myself. I seek to do unto others, as I would have others do unto me. I seek to serve both God and humanity.

(6) I embrace the Principle of Light in that I seek greater understanding. I realize I have knowledge of some things but do not know all things about either God or man, but seek to know more. I believe that I can progress in knowledge and understanding of spiritual principles. I seek to ever expand my learning. I am open to a fresh outlook when greater light and truth are revealed to me.

(7) I accept the principle of cause and effect and embrace the simple idea as taught in all spiritual movements that good and loving deeds, actions and thoughts will bring good results and harmful actions will bring destructive results. I seek therefore to do good to all mankind that good will return to me.

(8) I accept the Principle of Freedom. I allow all people to worship, speak and believe how, where or what they may so long as they comply with the just laws of the land (laws which protect the whole of the people). I do not support imposing my beliefs on others by force.

(9) I accept the principle of communion. Through prayer, thought or contemplation I can gain a greater awareness of God’s Purpose, God’s Will and God’s Love.

(10) I believe that my existence will continue even after the death of the physical body and seek to live mortal life in such a way so the afterlife of myself and others will be a happy experience.

(11) I believe in the Principle of Sharing to assist those less fortunate than myself. I support the elimination of poverty, disease and ignorance from the human condition that all may live abundantly. I realize that this must be accomplished through working with the free will of humanity and not through force and that sharing includes more than the material.

(12) I believe that true spiritual principles and facts are in harmony with proven science and all truth no matter where it is discovered. In all situations I seek to know the truth rather than settle for that which is false.

(13) I accept the principle of harmlessness and in this spirit I do not support any first aggression toward any nation, group or individual. If there is no first aggression there will not be a second.

(14) I support the principle of harmonious and good relationships and seek to be an ambassador of goodwill with my family, friends, groups and nations that all may benefit from contact with me. I embrace kindness in all my contacts.

(15) I support the principle of honesty and seek to tell the truth consistently.

(16) I believe there is good will and a desire for peace in the great majority of people, groups and religions and seek to see the best in those who believe differently than myself.

The Plan

The plan in a nutshell is to present these principles to the common people of the various religions with the hope that millions will one day endorse them. When this day comes then the idea of union will begin to permeate the leadership in the various religions and governments. When this is realized the hatred of one religion toward another will diminish and eventually all will cease their thoughts of war and live within a peaceful co-existence.

The True Left

April 22, 2012November 6, 2016 Joseph Dewey

This entry is part 13 of 40 in the series 2012A

Dan writes:

You have said in the past that when you use the word “left” or “leftist” you are talking of those on the “left-hand (dark) path” rather than the mainstream (liberal, political) left. Is this still the case here?

It’s probably time to clarify a few things since people do get confused about what is Left and Right.

The first thing to point out is when I write for the general public I have to use terms they understand even if the common vernacular is not technically or esoterically correct. Therefore, when speaking to them I understand that they will interpret the Right to mean the Republican-conservative-Christian-libertarian side of the discussion and the Left to be the Democratic-environmentalist-pacifist-redistribution side of things.

Even though the public has set ideas as to the meaning of words, when I use Left and Right I try to use them so they are correct in the eyes of the general public as well as esoterically correct.

For instance, when I talk about the Left attacking a belief in God I am talking about the true Left and not the Democrats, as many Democrats are believers. Poll show that 25% of evangelical zealots are Democrats and no one calls them the Left yet when one refers to the Left attacking a belief in God most just assume one is talking about Democrats. Not true. When I use Left, I mean the Left – not Democrats. There are also Republican atheists who attack the belief in a High Power.

So when I write political posts I will generally use Left and Right in its true esoteric meaning. This will help clarify what I am saying for those who follow my esoteric teachings. When the use of Left and Right becomes extra confusing I will then use more specific terms such as Republican, Democrat, conservative, liberal, libertarian, etc. When using “conservative” and “liberal” writing to the general public I will use them as they are commonly defined to avoid confusion. For instance, when writing for the general public I will call an environmentalist, liberal, even though most are archconservatives attempting to conserve what is.

Another very important point to clarify is this. When I use the terms “Left” and “Right” in political discussions I am NOT identifying people who are on the Right and Left hand paths. Probably less than one out of a million are actually settled on the actual Right or Left hand paths. Most of the general public are mere pawns in a great game or contest that is being played out by those who truly understand the two paths.

DK talked about this. I do not have time to find exact references but he basically said this:

Humanity as a whole lends their energy to the Left Hand Path, or the Dark Brotherhood. There are only a handful of disciples who clearly see the two paths. The work of the Brotherhood at present is to lift the consciousness of the human race so they will lean to the Right more than the Left. When this happens the door to evil will be shut. The conflict of World War II did a lot to push humanity toward a vision of the true Left and Right but we are still not securely there.

The bottom line is this. The average person of all political beliefs supports some elements of the Left and some of the Right but generally supports more from the true Left than the true Right.

So what represents the true Right hand path and the true Left?

By far the most important differentiating thing is the Principle of Freedom. I’ve written a lot about this and if one searches my writings he can get a good idea of my thinking on this. The principle of Freedom is the path to maximum freedom not unlimited freedom. For example, if we had unlimited freedom with no rules or laws then the burglar would be free to enter your house and take what he wants. This would prevent maximum freedom from taking place for yourself. The Second Key of Judgment must be used so the right amount of rules and laws will be implemented. Most people want too many rules or not enough and these, the vast majority, lend unknowing support to the Left Hand Path.

During this phase of my work when I am writing some political material my job will be to identify those illusions that support the Left Hand Path and do what I can to dispel them. In doing this to avoid confusion I will call the liberals in error the Left when talking to the general public. Labeling conservatives in error as the Left would be confusing so I will merely identify them as conservatives and attempt to point out their illusion and move them toward the true Right.

To make things more confusing for some is the realization that the true Right is really the true Center and the True Left takes us dangerously far from the True Center. To make good judgment even more difficult for the average person is that the Brotherhood of Light often has to put extra attention on the direction of Left or Right when the pendulum has swung too far. For instance, when the pendulum has swung to the Left, as it has at present, then extra attention must be given to the truths on the Right. This causes many disciples involved in politics to be currently identified as right wing in the current era when they are really just pushing toward the great center.

That said let us list some traits that that will help us identify when people give energy to the Left Hand Path.

(1) As stated they will support authority that limits maximum freedom. This is the biggie.

(2) They will be a dangerous distance from the true center.

(3) They fight having extra light being thrown on a controversial subject as the dark ones progress much more rapidly toward their own ends when the masses are in ignorance shielded from the light.

There are many examples of this playing out concerning which the masses.

(A) When two politicians run against each other you’ll find that generally one will be hiding who he really is. On the Left he may have socialist or unconstitutional goals and on the Right he may have secret plans to implement his religious views against the will of the people. In not revealing their true agenda they support ignorance which plays into the hands of the Dark Brotherhood.

(B) The Global Warming debate us another example. Those believers who claim the most light fight tooth and nail to prevent any of the skeptics’ views from surfacing. This has always been suspected but proved with the release of the Climategate emails. Al Gore and the rest of the orthodox believers refuse to debate the subject with skeptics and instead follow the path of intimidation and threats. Check out this article:

(C) Obama’s birth certificate. From the time this has been any kind of an issue Obama supporters have avoided talking about it like the plague; instead calling investigators birthers, haters, racists etc. When the issue was fairly new I was asked on a political forum if I thought Obama was born in the USA. I responded that there seems to be evidence supporting both sides and I did not know but would give him the benefit of the doubt. I thought this was a fairly non confrontational statement but I was attacked by many on the Left with a zeal I have rarely witnessed. Unless I would confess to them that I was 100% sure he was native born I was an outcast to this group, to be attacked and shunned at all costs.

I would have liked to present the evidence for both sides but they didn’t want to hear it and if I had pushed it any further I think I would have been in physical danger with this bunch.

It matters not if an issue is controversial or not – those supporting the true Right will allow all evidence to surface and are prepared to examine it dispassionately as much as possible.

(D) Religious dogmatists refuse to look at or even allow evidence to be submitted that would question their views. Just try and present evidence of reincarnation to a staunch born againer and you’ll see what I mean. Try and present some obscure but controversial Mormon history to a true believer and he will refuse to check it out.

This reminds me of a time some Jehovah Witnesses knocked on my door and gave me a pamphlet to read. I told then that I would read theirs if they would read mine. I then grabbed a copy of my booklet entitled REINCARNATION AND THE BIBLE and handed it to them. The poor gal held it in her hands, looked at the title and started shaking. She then walked over to the coffee table and laid it down and retreated as fast as she could.

Conclusion: The masses aid the path of the Left by refusing to allow light to shine upon the darkness.

(4) One way indoctrination. This is especially used in children but often on adults in countries ruled by tyrannies. Today the Left is attempting to see to it that that children in our schools are not taught any truths about God. Whether it be lower or higher education the mere mention of intelligent design is anathema. Children and students receive a one way indoctrination that man was created by random forces with no intelligence involved.

In addition they are receiving close to one-way indoctrination on the environment and global warming in an attempt to prepare the rising generation to accept an all-powerful Big Brother to save us from ourselves.

On the political Right there used to be a lot of indoctrination from religious schools and still is to a degree but this technique of conservatives has largely shifted from the religious ones to liberal political ideologies.

(5) Threats, intimidation and name calling. If those supporting the True Left do not get their way they will threaten life and livelihood of those who stand up to them. They will intimidate through name calling and labeling. A prime example we can all agree on was the way blacks were manipulated after they were supposedly freed after the Civil War.

Presently we see these tactics used on teachers who even mention Intelligent Design or who express skepticism about orthodox global warming. Both sides will use these to a degree when it is important to them to get their way.

(6) They will support force to achieve their ends, even if that force runs contrary to majority will.

The ideals of equality of socialism and communism are not evil in themselves if they worked with free will but they do not. They advocate forcefully taking from those who have and redistributing it contrary to their wills.

A certain amount of force is necessary when used in harmony with majority will to prevent murder theft rape, etc but excessive force contrary to majority will is part of the agenda of the Left Hand Path.

Force, lack of freedom and darkness are the ingredients those on the true Left Hand Path uses to control the unsuspecting masses. Among these are many good-hearted idealist people who do not have a clue that they are making progress easier for the dark ones.

Why It Is Ethical To Eat Meat

Animal Destiny

March 31, 2012March 31, 2012 Joseph Dewey

This entry is part 12 of 40 in the series 2012A

Duane writes:

It has been said that the Spiritual Hierarchy is the saving force and the stewards of the human kingdom Just as man should be the stewards of the animal kingdom who reach their high goal by their interaction and stimulation with the human kingdom. Simply preserving animals so that they can be eaten at some future point somehow does not seem very steward like to me.

Yes, DK did point out our responsibility to the animal kingdom and even said that humanity would turn out to be saviors of them indicating that the time would come that humans would eventually reach a point where they would do much to make their lives more safe and comfortable.

Whereas it is true that there is abuse today I predict this will decline to the point that it is a rarity and animal life will improve in the following ways.

(1) Humans will assist wild animals so they will not suffer so much in the wild from starvation and cold. Forest fires will be more controlled in the future so fewer animals will be burned alive.

(2) People will increasingly become vegetarians so not so many farm animals will be raised. Those which do continue will be well cared for.

(3) Humans will assist with population control of wild animals to insure species are preserved yet do not overpopulate. They will control natural predators and hunters will be used in this process for some time to come.

(4) As diet shifts away from meat farms and ranches for meat will grow smaller and more personalized. Those who do eat meat will demand the animals be well cared for.

(5) Humanity has made greater strides than is realized for taking care of their pets and our relationship with them will only improve and the little abuse in this area will continue to decrease.

When I was a kid a lot of people shot stray cats and dogs for sport or even tortured them. Others would tie explosives on a cat’s tail and watch him explode thinking that was funny.

Here’s some of the ways they had fun in Europe several hundred years ago:

“Players with hands tied behind them competed to kill a cat nailed to a post by battering it to death with their heads, at the risk of cheeks ripped open or eyes scratched out by the frantic animal’s claws….

“Or a pig enclosed in a wide pen was chased by men with clubs to the laughter of spectators as he ran squealing from the blows until beaten lifeless.”

“But the practical function of cruel punishments was just a part of their appeal. Spectators enjoyed cruelty, even when it served no judicial purpose. Torturing animals, for example, was good clean fun. In 16th-century Paris, a popular form of entertainment was cat-burning, in which a cat was hoisted in a sling on a stage and slowly lowered into a fire. According to the historian Norman Davies, “The spectators, including kings and queens, shrieked with laughter as the animals, howling with pain, were singed, roasted, and finally carbonized.” Also popular were dogfights, bull runs, cockfights, public executions of “criminal” animals, and bearbaiting, in which a bear would be chained to a post and dogs would tear it apart or be killed in the effort.”

From: The Better Angels Of Our Nature By Steven Pinker

Speaking of cockfights they were very prevalent when I was a kid as my dad took me to them regularly and had his own fighting roosters.

We have made great progress in the treatment of animals and each other over time, especially in the last 50 years. Most would not dream of mistreating animals today as they were in times of old.

That said, hunting will be used as a means to preserve animals but not an end of itself. Some who want to preserve certain species would prefer to not to offer them for hunting but realize that it is better to sacrifice 10% of a population to paying hunters than to allow 99-100% to disappear from the face of the earth.

Slaughterhouses are accused by some of skinning animals alive or beating them with clubs. I’m sure this claim must be exaggerated. This never happened at the meat-packing plant I worked in. Wikipedia describes the process as it is today which was similar to what we used:

“Cattle are rendered unconscious by applying an electric shock of 300 volts and 2 amps to the back of the head, effectively stunning the animal, or by use of a captive bolt pistol to the front of the cow’s head (a pneumatic or cartridge-fired captive bolt). “Swine can be rendered unconscious by CO2/inert gas stunning.

“Animals are hung upside down by both of their hind legs on the processing line.

“The carotid artery and jugular vein are severed with a knife, blood drains, causing death through exsanguination.”

We used the cartridge-fired captive bolt system and the animal was instantly rendered unconscious and never regained it. There was little if any physical suffering. They did seem to have a psychic sense they were going to be slaughtered a few minutes before they were killed.

As far as skinning them alive goes I can’t imagine the people I used to work with doing such a thing. As it was the Kill Floor was the least desirable place to work and even these employees would have been repulsed if ordered to skin an animal while consciously alive.

Dean writes:

And he made an unrealistic claim about animals going extinct which just wouldn’t happen, clearly. But I shouldn’t have to repeat myself I already wrote my responses to it.

It is unrealistic to think that farm animals would just be miraculously cared for if we all became vegetarians. Farmers raise cattle and pigs so they can sell then for meat. If no one buys the meat then who will care for them – the vegetarians? I don’ t think so.

“PETA claims that their first priority above all else is animal liberation, however on the most basic level this is clearly not true. With the millions of dollars PETA makes every year, they have a grand total of one animal shelter. As much as PETA advocates an animal’s right to fair and ethical treatment, this is not a no kill shelter. In fact, PETA has killed roughly 85% of the animals its shelter has “rescued.”(Newsweek) In many cases, shelters are forced to euthanize animals because they lack the finances to care for them. This is not the case for PETA, who in 2007 made over $30 million dollars. That’s enough money to finance their no kill shelter, and open multiple other no kill shelters.”

http://www.geekstinkbreath.net/blogs/read/4075/

If PETA with lots of money do not take much care for animals then what makes you think the general population would care for cattle if we all turned vegetarians?

Dean:

Obama has signed a law allowing horses to be killed and slaughtered for consumption now. Horse plants are legal again in the united states. I see this as a backwards step. I can’t imagine your argument that without horse plants horses would go extinct as being a valid thing to say. And I don’t think it is a valid argument because birds, monkeys, zebras, lions, elephants, bears, and how many other animals are living a sustainable lifestyle as a species without being farmed right now?

You must of missed me saying that horses are pets and pets fulfill human need and thus will be preserved whether we eat them or not.

Some of the wild animals you mention are endangered.

Dean:

Cattle, pigs, sheep, goats, and chickens on the road to extinction because of vegetarians? You are mistaken. We keep these animals even when we are not killing them for food. And they wouldn’t go extinct. You seem to go from one extreme to the other.

Who is this “we” you’re taking about? I know of no one with a pet cow who doesn’t plan to use it for meat or milk.

As far as animal abuse goes I’m sure all of us here are against it and the numbers that do not support it are growing. It’s only a matter of time before conditions improve for all farm animals.
