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.

Knowing the Truth, Part 4

Joseph Dewey
This entry is part 16 of 49 in the series JJ Lectures

Now I was asked a question about aliens and hybrids, we see all these shows about aliens and so I will give you my thoughts on aliens and if you want to believe it or not believe that is fine. Almost all the encounters with aliens are illusionary. You will notice that in most of the encounters that they are woken up at night and have you ever noticed that when you are between awake and asleep that is when you often see and hear things. I am not saying that what you are hearing or seeing is not real but it is usually not in the physical plane. Another thing about many of the space ships that people see is they are zipping along and then stop on a dime or often they say the ship will turn at a right angle. These claims seem to break the laws of physical reality – so one wonders how this could happen.

There are UFO sightings that have a natural explanation such as seeing the planet Venus or a hot air balloon or something like that. There are some that they have not be able to explain and a lot of the ones that they have not been able to explain are the ones that do these fantastic maneuvers that is pretty much impossible in our physical reality. This is because what they are seeing are ships made of etheric matter and etheric matter is capable of performance that we can’t do here on the physical plane.

Audience: According to DK and some of your teachings as well we can develop our vision to see these etheric vehicles and doesn’t this indicate an evolutionary step in the etheric?

JJ: Yes many of the people that do see these things in the etheric matter are sensitive people and are often people that have psychic abilities and a lot of these guys are not only UFO buffs but also will admit they have psychic abilities. If you come across something in the etheric or astral planes it is because your vision has crossed over into a higher plane. I don’t know if I ever shown you guys but it is really easy to see etheric matter, I will put my forehead right here and everybody stare at me for about a minute. Then I will tell you what to do. (A few seconds pass) I am going to pull away now but keep staring where I was at. Do you see it?

Audience: Yes.

JJ: Okay just about everybody saw it and it is like looking at a light and then closing your eyes and still seeing the light.

Audience: I have seen that all the time and I just thought it was a function of my normal vision.

JJ: Well it is your normal vision and you see a bit more than just your normal seeing in the fact that the etheric light burns a little stronger and you will also notice that when you see this you will see different shades that are not in the physical plane. Often times in the throat area you will see a little dark area when you have a cold and that is not visible on the physical plane. It is because of the etheric light that you are able to see that. You get someone that is really vibrant and in good physical shape and their light will be a lot brighter. Somebody that just got out of the hospital or is in bad physical shape – their light will not be as bright.

Now if it was just the physical light that was causing this then it would be the same with both people because physically they look the same but the brightness of the light you see will vary with each individual and that is because there is an etheric light. Place the end of your thumbs together and put them up against the light and then pull them apart slowly until they are about a quarter inch apart and look at the empty space between your thumbs and as you look at the empty space between your thumbs look at the right and left and you will see your etheric body it is extended about a millimeter from the skin and kind of a bluish hue. It is best to do this on a white background because you can see it more clearly. Go home and do this on a white background and you will be able to see your etheric image and like I say it is kind of bluish hue usually. For somebody that is not very healthy it will extend just a small space away from their skin and for somebody that is very healthy it will be a couple millimeters away.

Audience: Why is it important that we develop our vision to see the etheric vehicle?

JJ: It is not that important. Laughing! It is just the fact that we are getting a little more sensitive in seeing a little more. What is much more important is developing the intuition where you can pick up things that are true, pick up principles and pick up what is correct and what is not and pick up who represents the outward god and the God within.

Now going back to aliens I believe that the only ones that have developed the power to travel in the physical with interplanetary flight is the Brotherhood of Light and the dark brothers are not capable of interstellar flight. This is why the star systems are so far away. The nearest star system to us is 4 ½ light years away and is probably not even inhabited but most of the ones where there is a strong possibility of life like ours are 20 or so light years away and that is long, long ways. Light travels at 186,000 miles per second and if you were to shine a flashlight in that direction it would take 20 years for the light to reach them. That is a very long period of time. The only way to go faster than the speed of light is to fold up the physical body and incorporate it into the higher vehicles. Then, when the brotherhood in doing such traveling and reaches a destination they unfold again into the physical.

The dark brotherhood is incapable of doing this. They can travel in the etheric and they can contact people in the etheric body but they cannot travel from one star system to another and then materialize in the physical. The brotherhood of light can and I believe the only time that they come here is at end of one age and the beginning of another like after the destruction of Atlantis I think we had visitors and there is a scripture that talks about Adam which is many and I believe that we have had many Adams and each Adam is a new beginning after there has been great destruction on the earth – and that this has happened many times.

As a matter of fact Jesus was called the second Adam in the Bible. He was called this because He was the beginning of a new spiritual life. The first Adam, the physical Adam, was the beginning of a new type of physical life. And so we have the various changes that occur and when these changes occur I believe we are visited by beings from other star systems, often without the use of space ships. They just come in their spiritual bodies. They are capable of visiting other planes and capable of exchanging bodies. For instance, if you are an advanced being you can be contacted and you can go visit his planet in his body and he goes and visits the earth in yours.

My best estimate that over 99% of UFO contacts are not physical contacts. There is a handful I read about that make me wonder the possibilities but I think most of them have a lot of illusion in the accounts. I also believe that there are people on other planets. I believe that physical people on physical planets like the earth are few in number in the universe – that our universe is quite young and this planet is like a seed planet and one of our purposes is to develop interstellar flight and populate other planets. We will seed sections of our galaxy starting with our solar system. We just had a probe that went to Titan, the largest moon of Saturn and the only known natural satellite to have a dense atmosphere – the only body other that the earth for which clear evidence of stable bodies of surface liquid have been found. It is interesting that it still has an atmosphere and if it was warmer it may be able to harbor life like the earth. We will eventually do some interesting things like remove a moon like Titan from around its orbit around Saturn and move it closer to the sun and eventually populate it. We will be like gods creating a garden of Eden so to speak. This is possibly how the earth was started by other beings similar to us and maybe the earth was in a different orbit far back in our past. As a matter of fact ancient Biblical times has a year being 360 days rather than 365 days and if that were really true then that would mean the earth was in a different orbit way back in Biblical times which is very interesting.

What you want to look for in any new inspired teaching is this; is there any new principle being taught or any new elaboration on an old principle that sheds more light that was not there before. All kinds of people often ask me what I think of this book or that book and what I will often say is that I read it and I did not find any new principle or I read it and there are some new principles and I think it is good. They will often be disappointed if I am not impressed and tell me how good it was. I tell them yes but there are not any new principles or teachings there and they say well yes but it is so good. I say, I will tell you the reason you thought it was good, it is because this particular writer developed a new fancy vocabulary and he uses all these fanciful words but if you substitute an ordinary word that means what the author is really saying and then you read it you will find no new principle there. He is just saying the same thing over with a fancy vocabulary. Many of the writers think that if they create a new vocabulary with fanciful sounding words that they are actually bringing forth new knowledge.

Instead of the Christ principal if I were to use say “the force” then it does not change anything does it? That is one thing Star Wars did was they used the word “force” that captured the imagination of kids and it did not really teach anything new but it captured their imagination with a new word that everybody liked. Sometimes a new word is helpful like that where it does stimulate the imagination and make them examine something a little closer and in that way Star Wars was helpful. But we all have the force within us and it is called by many different names from the Holy Ghost to the Christ Principle to the solar energies – lots of things that may be the force that he was talking about. At least the Star Wars trilogy had a purpose with using a word like that and that was to create an interesting story. What many writers do when they use fanciful words is they use them to take us farther into illusion and make us think that they have more to offer than they really have. They are just giving an old philosophy a new coat so to speak and it is really the same old philosophy.

Mission Experiences, Chapters 21 & 22

Joseph Dewey
This entry is part 11 of 18 in the series Mission

Chapter Twenty-One
Magic Fingers

After Elder Eldridge went home I was sent a new companion named Elder Cooper. Now when I was with Eldridge the members called me the quiet one, but it was not because I had nothing to say but that Eldridge had a very outgoing personality and it was often hard to get in a word edgewise.

On the other hand, Cooper was truly a quiet one. I tried to give him plenty of opportunity to speak but he never had much to say. The members of the branch thought that I had undergone a personality transformation as now I had to be the main person to interact and Elder Cooper was happy to let me dominate.

Elder Cooper had majored in chemistry back home and one of the first things he communicated to me was that his grade average was a perfect 4.0. I remember the first time we were to teach a lesson together. The way it worked was that one missionary taught one half and the other the second half. I told Cooper that we had to teach a lesson that evening, I believe it was number three. I noticed a short time later that he was intensely involved in studying. I asked him what he was doing. He said he was studying the lesson that we were going to give that evening.

This surprised me as I was only about an average student and he had a perfect 4.0. I thought to myself that with my average scholarly ability I never had to review the lessons because I had them memorized but Cooper here was the perfect student and a year into his mission he had to review his lessons.

As we worked together I noticed that he could never give a lesson without first spending about an hour in preparation and review first, and I never had to review them and could give them very close to word for word.

This started me thinking about what true intelligence was. Elder Cooper was the perfect student yet his emotional growth seemed to be stunted and he seemed to lack the ability to apply intelligence in a practical way.

Later on a book was to become popular called “Emotional Intelligence” where the idea was presented that there are a number of levels and layers of intelligence and for making a success of yourself one has to have emotional intelligence which aids in human interaction.

Something else occurred to me and which was that Elder Cooper had a good short term memory but not so good on the long term. After reviewing a lesson he then had it pretty good in his head, but he would lose it and have to review again if he had to give it a few days later.

My memory seemed to work differently than his. My short term memory was not so great which explained why cramming for tests in school wasn’t a lot of help for me. On the other hand, when I did actually learn a thing I usually retain it for a long period or for life.

For instance, I am writing this account from memory as I did not keep a journal. I do have the letters I mailed to my mom but they contained very little to help recall the story.

I guess if I had to choose between having a good long term or short term memory I would chose long term, even though that puts one at a disadvantage in taking standardized tests.

Now my wife has a good short term memory and had a good grade point in school but her long term is not so great. This kind of works well because between the two of us we have a petty good composite mind. She’ll see a movie listed and ask if we have seen it. If we have I’ll say yes and tell her what it was about. Then she may ask me if she liked it. I will then clearly recall how she felt about the movie and relate that to her.

Then I will often make use of her excellent short term memory. If we both meet a new person and are introduced I will often forget the name within a few seconds. I’ll then ask her, “What was that guy’s name?” She’ll just about always remember and tell me. Then sometimes I’ll come up with an idea and explain it to her and then forget what it was five minutes later. I’ll ask her what it was and she will recall and remind me.

So, as it works out between the two of us we have a fairly good brain.

So Elder Cooper got me started thinking about intelligence, but I didn’t stop at examining memory or even emotional intelligence. Later on I did a lot of thinking about how intelligence works out on many different levels. I could probably write a book on the subject, but that’s for another day.

I could see why they were keeping Elder Cooper in a junior position because he was not a leader and seemed happy to let others take charge. At least he was supportive

Now I was in charge we set out the best way possible to establish a good pool of people to teach. It was difficult because of the age of the residents in Scarborough and the other duties foisted upon me as the District Leader. Even so, we did make some progress, but nothing like happened in Peterlee.

Most of the work with Elder Cooper and the other missionaries at that time was pretty routine but still several interesting things happened.

Shortly before my mission I had taken several hard knocks on the head. I noticed that the pupils in my eyes were different sizes and I had heard this was a bad sign. Throughout my mission I sensed that something was not quite right with my computer brain. Then one day we were working in an area of mobile homes and as we approached one I hit my head on a metal open window pane that I didn’t see. I struck it so hard that it made the whole mobile home shake.

During the next few days I really seemed to be out of it and let Elder Cooper teach as much as he was willing. I looked in the mirror and saw that my pupils, which had been returning to normal, now really looked off size. I figured that if I didn’t start feeling better soon I’d have to see a doctor about taking some tests.

Then one evening we had one lesson to teach and I told Elder Cooper to just teach it as long as he wanted. I sat in a comfortable chair and just about went to sleep. I felt surprisingly peaceful and at ease.

Shortly after Elder Cooper began teaching I felt a presence. I sensed that the were at least two invisible beings near me and I felt a message entering my mind which said:

“Do not be alarmed. We are here to help you. Just relax and sit perfectly still.”

Because of the peaceful feeling I thought I could trust whoever this was and complied. Then a most amazing thing happened. I felt their hands on my head and sensed they were spiritual physicians from the other side. They spent the first couple minutes in some type of preparation as I felt their fingers moving around on my scalp. Then after this process was finished I felt an actual instrument enter right through my scull into the center of my brain. I was surprised but not alarmed as the feeling of peace continued and again was reminded mentally to remain perfectly still.

The instrument was not made of physical matter and produced no pain, but made a tingling sensation. On hindsight I would guess I was sensing it through my etheric instead of my physical body.

This instrument did some probing for around five minutes or so and then another instrument was introduced. This seemed to be some kind of etheric laser and I sensed the real work of repair was now happening. Again, this produced no pain, but a rather pleasant tingling sensation right in the physical brain itself. This process took another ten or fifteen minutes and finally I sensed they were finished as the instruments were withdrawn.

Shortly after this the entities left. Their presence felt so good I would have been happy to have them hang around indefinitely.

After we left the home I took note of how I felt and my sense of well being was much better. Later, when I looked in a mirror, I was delighted to see that both my pupils were the same size. I took this to be a good sign.

My head felt much better the rest of my mission but it seemed I did need a final repair. Right after I got home I had to head up to college at the University of Idaho, 300 miles north. During the drive I felt their presence again. Again I felt their fingers on my scalp and received the impression that that I needed a final touch up. Then for about 20 minutes I drove onward keeping my head as still as possible while they repeated a similar process to the earlier one. After they were finished they left just as they did before.

After this my head felt great and the ole brain has served me very well ever since. As it turns out some people are happy with what my mind turns out and some are not but hopefully I can leave a legacy of an overall good effect.

I know that I personally will always feel indebted to those spiritual servants.

Chapter Twenty-Two
Miracles

Somewhere around this time period we had a couple more interesting, or what some might call “faith promoting,” experiences.

One evening we received a call that a sister in the branch had been in a serious car accident and we were requested to give her a healing blessing.

We went to the hospital and were allowed into her room. She was in bad shape indeed for her face was so bruised we would not have recognized her if he hadn’t known it was her.

She was conscious though and looked our direction and I knew she recognized us. She could not speak though for her jaw was broken badly in several locations and we were told that she was going to require some major surgery to reconstruct it.

We did our best to speak consoling words to her and then laid our hands gently on her head and gave her a blessing promising her a quick healing.

Several days later when we attended church we were surprised to see her there, a little beaten up, but well on the path of recovery. This quite surprised us as everyone was expecting a long hospital stay following several major surgeries. As we approached her she recognized us and we also discovered that she could now speak.

She pointed her finger at me and said, “It was you!”

“Me what?” I said curiously.

“You healed me.”

I, of course, replied that none of us has any power to heal on our own but any healing is done through the power of God and the person’s faith. We then asked her for more details and here is what she said:

“Shortly before you visited me they took X-rays of my jaw and they saw it was severely broken in several locations and would require major surgery. Then after the blessing I began healing very quickly and after a couple days they did another X-ray just before they were going to do the first surgery.

“I was in the room when the doctor pulled the second X-ray and looked at it. He then pulled the first X-ray and look at that. He then kept looking at one X-ray and then the other and saying over and over, ‘This cannot be. There must be some mistake. These cannot belong to the same person.’

“I asked him what the problem was and he said apparently there is no problem for if the second set of X-rays are accurate the bones in my jaw have moved perfectly into place and no surgery will be required.

“Then they released me to go home and now here I am almost as good as new.”

We were thrilled with her story but that was not all. When visiting with her a month or so later she related one more thing. She said the dentist had taken an X-ray and after examining it asked her if she had ever broken her jaw. She then related the recent accident.

He then said that he could barely tell that her jaw had ever been broken for the pieces were knitted back together with more exactness and precision than he had ever seen before. There was only a very slight hairline witness that her jaw had ever been broken.

Another lady in the branch was having major problems with pernicious anemia and was at the end of her rope and confined to her bed. She had received several blessings from several elders but was no better. She asked us for another.

When we laid our hands on her head I did my best to tune in to the Spirit and discern as to whether she could be healed. I didn’t sense any go-ahead so I just gave as encouraging of a blessing as I could.

We saw her a few days later and were not surprised that she was no better. She then requested another blessing. We gave her one but again felt no go-ahead.

A while later we visited her again and she was worse than ever. She requested still another blessing. This time I felt a different direction was in order.

I took her hand and told her that even though she had not been healed that I did receive the reason for this. I told her hat her faith was at a low ebb.

She then insisted she had lots of faith.

“You do have lots of faith in the normal sense,” I said, “but I picked up that you are very depressed and feel you are at the end of your rope. This depression you feel is interfering with your faith and is causing you to not be able to use it. If you want to be healed you must let the negative thoughts and depression go and tune into the joy that comes from God. If you can do this then you will be healed.”

“You are right about the depression,” she said. “Maybe it has caused me to expect the worst. What can I do to rid myself of it so I can be healed?”

“Over the next couple days we will fast and pray for you,” I said. “During this time you must pray and tune into the spirit of God and sense the joy and fullness that is there. Then when we reach the end of our fast we will come back and give you another blessing.”

She agreed and as we left, for the first time I saw real hope in her eyes.

I do not recall whether we fasted for two or three days but I do remember that my own personal faith also had an increase because of it. When we visited her again she said that she had been thinking of what I said and that she now saw that her depressed state was indeed getting in the way of healing and that she felt that her state of mind was much better.

I told her that was encouraging and we laid our hands on her head ad gave her another blessing. This time the feeling I had was different and I felt permission from the Spirit to give her a positive healing blessing.

I didn’t sense a powerful spiritual feeling as we left and was hoping I had said the right thing. That evening though something strange happened. As I laid down to go to sleep I felt a powerful spiritual presence and suddenly as clear as a bell I saw the inside of her body. I saw that there was a great sore or wound near her stomach and this was draining her body of energy and its ability to heal. Then I saw that this sore was being closed up and would be as if it never was. I then went to sleep and slept sound as a baby.

I never saw her for a while after that but then one day at church there she was. I saw her cheerfully talking to friend and approached her, telling her she looked pretty good and asked her about her recovery.

She said she started feeling better right after the blessing that the doctor had given her a clean bill of health and the pernicious anemia was healed wad no longer a problem.

As an ending thought let me add that spiritual healing is not an exact science. It would be nice if we could do a ceremony or speak certain words and always get a result, but it doesn’t work that way. There are many factors involved and sometimes no matter what you do the person may not be healed. That can be troubling for all involved. Even so, I have seen enough miraculous healing in my life to know beyond any doubt that when higher will gives approval that there is nothing impossible for us. May we always be open to all possibilities.

Kalispell Gathering 2006, Part 38

Joseph Dewey
This entry is part 23 of 24 in the series Kalispell Gathering 2006

Audience: I remember there was some discussion about a coin, when you were writing the book. The discussion had to with the purity or the background that makes something and I wanted to know if you could talk about if there was a relation between that and soul contact.

JJ: That is a good question and I will get on that in just a minute. I am just about to wrap up this discussion and then I we will discuss that difficult question.

So it is a fascinating point when you think about where God’s creative energies are. What we tend to think is God is a being out there and we need to go to Him and have Him tell us what to do. What we need to realize is that God is in us. God is within and when we realize that we are the creative arms and legs of God here on this earth, and actually the whole universe, we have to start somewhere so we start in our own neighborhoods. After this earth manifests the intelligence of god we will go to other planets and we will be the creative force that molds this universe into usable form. The being that occupies this universe is just getting started in His consciousness.

Now because I say that the higher are not very advanced in Their sphere does not mean that we are have a greater destiny than they do. What it means is that a being in one sphere, if He is younger and less experienced, will have to age a bit and put to use his talents and his body and his being in order to reach his potential. When the universe actually matures then it’s ability will far surpass anything that we as individuals can do.

The same thing with the planet earth. The earth is young compared to us – humanity is a lot more progressed in its consciousness within its sphere than the earth is progressed in its consciousness within its sphere. But eventually in ages hence the planet earth itself will develop its intelligence and its self awareness so that its intelligence and ability will far exceed anything that we will be able to do.

Within us are cells which have DNA in it and is more complex in its functioning than anything we can do. But when we achieve the end of our evolution what we will create will exceed the intelligence of our cells. We will create something more fantastic than the DNA; and when we create the DNA for a greater purpose it will be a lot more complex than the DNA within your cell.

The beginning of this creation are the computers that we are building right now. If we could see thousands of years in the future where the creation of computers will lead we would see a complexity that would make the DNA look like child’s play. But we will be able to create these giant computer programs that will be able to build houses with no one working on them. We will just grow a house or castle or whatever we want. We will learn to do things like this and the things we are going to create would boggle the mind right now in our current state of consciousness. Just imagine someone from 200 years ago coming here and seeing our computers and TV’s and spaceships. They just could not hardly believe it.

Audience: They would think we were Gods.

JJ: Yes they would.

Audience: It was so much simpler in Sunday school learning that there was just a God and you just followed the rules, you died and you went to heaven and that was it.

Yes, it was simple and that is why it is so appealing because people like simplicity. People like the idea that you do A, B, and C, and then you get to D and you relax forever. We kind of see this in life. People go to college, get a job and then they do not do anything else. They do not read any more books, or do anything else. They just want to have their job and retire and relax. These people are missing out on what we are as humans. We are the creative life force of God and being the creative life force we never reach that point where we want to rest forever. We have periods where we rest but then after we rest and get replenished we want to do something else. If we are really reflecting the mind of God then that is the way we will go. People are deceived into thinking that “I need to do A, B and C and then I do not need to work or struggle anymore, I can just have bliss forever.”

Audience: Are you saying that God is evolving?

JJ: Yes that is what I am saying. Are you evolving? If you are evolving and God is in you then God is evolving because you are a reflection of God. Everything that God is, is within you.

Audience: So then why would God keep recreating the universe?

JJ: He recreates because He does it new and He even says that in the Bible, “Behold I make all things new; I create a new heaven and a new earth.”

Audience: And is each time better than the last time?

JJ: Yes, each time is just a little bit better.

Audience: So all the mistakes that we are making now are still not anything compared to the mistakes of the past universes?

JJ: It is like Edison when he was creating the light bulb. He had a reporter come to him and say, now you have said that you have attempted to create this light bulb 10,000 times. Aren’t you ready now to admit failure? And Edison says, 10,000 times I have identified that which does not work and I only have a few left to go. Laughter

Audience: Is it true that they say that because this universe is focused on humans that all mistakes made in this universe are human mistakes?

JJ: There many other lives that are involved in the universe. In the etheric matter, which is just beyond our visibility of the physical we have the Deva lives of the angelic kingdom and they are one of the creative kingdoms. They create in etheric matter. Our purpose is to create in physical matter. This is where the attention of God is in the physical universe is, – it is in us. Mistakes that humans make are mistakes that humans make. Concerning an error on Mars, whatever happens on Mars is just the interplay of the elementary lives that live there. Mars is not being creatively improved right now. There are things going on with Mars but there is no creativity on Mars right now to improve it. When we land on Mars and get colonies there we will do things to improve Mars. That is our purpose, to improve things.

Audience: So the idea is that God creates and then stands back.

JJ: He does not really stand back He enters into you and He is you. You are a reflection of the creative force of God and what God wants to happen here is that He wants to have every experience possible. So, one of your missions is to give God an experience that He has never had before. Each one of us feels within that your life is a little bit different than any other life in the universe. No one else has lived a life exactly like you and there is a reason for that. God does not want live the same life in His reflections, He does not each one to be same, He wants each life to be a bit different so that He can have a different experience through us. Now, Wayne here has given Him a really different experience! Laughter.

Audience: Is it not also just the nature of the phenomenon is that energy is in motion so there is always creation that is happening.

Audience Member: Atoms are in motion and they are not creating anything.

JJ: Not necessarily, if you create a sand castle, you have energy in motion that will destroy it and it will be no more. Our purpose will be to create a sand castle that does not fall apart. Microsoft Word was created and it does not fall apart. Computers are just in the middle of their evolution and once a computer program is written it does not fall apart, but it just keeps the organization there and that is the way we are as creators. We just do not create a sand castle and then leave it to the forces that be to destroy it. We are going to create things and then establish a program to keep the creation going.

So we will create sand castles that will rebuild themselves automatically and nothing will be able to pull them apart. This is what has happened with the atoms, the hydrogen atoms continues to exist and exist and exist and nothing pulls them apart because they have internal computer programs that tell them to stay together so we can use them as building blocks to create higher things.

We are going to create all kinds of fantastic things. This knowledge is more than just theory and it is important because it frees the mind. Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free. When you realize that you are the arms and hands of God then you stop sitting around waiting for God to tell you what to do and begin to tell yourself what to do and figure out what you are going to do to become part of this creation and how do you help in making everything better. I have attended a family reunion just before the gathering and my family looks on me like I am a crazy and my sister says to me, what do you want to do Joe? I said that when I am gone I want people to say, that J J Dewey he made the world a better place. And then another member of my family said, well, isn’t God supposed to do that? Laughter.

I said but we are the arms and hands of God. If someone is starving to death and we just sit around and do nothing waiting for God to feed him then he will still starve to death. I said you are the arms and hands of God and you feed him and what is he going to say? He is going to say, thank God! Laughter.

JJ: But he would not be thanking God, if it were not for you being the arms, hands, feet and mouth helping him out. You are the god there, answering his prayers. It is stimulating to think of and when I think of this it gives me a lot more energy in thought that there is really nothing that we cannot do! If we can get people stimulated to where they believe that all the powers of God is within them, then there is nothing that we cannot do.

Invisible Interactions, Part 1

Joseph Dewey
This entry is part 17 of 62 in the series 2010

Posted July 31, 2010

I thought this was a subject worth covering which is associated with my mission posts.

Harry writes the following:
The only devils Christ ever cast out of any one were these very same “silly notions” that you insist are not, and he calmly cast them all out with the light of day, which is just another word for “the truth”. It was “the truth” that set them free, not some unseen power that came from his personal worthiness for having kept any certain commandments, his consecrated olive oil, or his holy priesthood, as he didn’t have any of those things. All he had was a perfect understanding of all things, and demons and devils were somebody else’s explanation for things that couldn’t be explained.

A person who is not able to be possessed by your devils, would also know that the story about the swine and “Legion” is more or less a fable. How something like that ended up in the New Testament is left to be discovered, but I’m sure that eventually it will be.

JJ
If you are right Harry then we should throw the entire New Testament and most of its writers out the window for they all believed in invisible spirits interplaying with humanity

Now I go into symbolic meaning much more than most writers. For instance, my book, The Unveiling, interpreting the Book of Revelations goes heavily into symbolic meaning.

There is also symbolic meaning in actual historical events and even your routine day has symbolic meaning. For instance, bumping one’s head on a bookcase may indicate a message that the guy needs to get some knowledge in his thick skull. The fact that symbolic meaning applies does not, and I repeat, does not mean that the person did not actually bump his head.

Unlike the Book of Revelations or the parables, the Gospels are presented as historical fact and not as a parable with a prime purpose of symbolic teaching.

The main purpose of the parables are for symbolism, but the main purpose of an account is to present a witness to historical fact of Jesus and his works.

Of course it is logically possible that the story of Jesus was completely fabricated. It is also possible it was altered somewhat, but it is not likely one of the main themes was altered in all the 33 books in the New Testament.

It is also possible that the life and message of Socrates was altered but it is not likely that one of his main themes was completely fabricated for the sake of symbolism. For instance, it is improbable that Plato fabricated the Socratic method of inquiry. It is such a part of the message that scholars do not even bring up the possibility.

Even so, the existence of evil entities are such a part of the core history of Jesus that most Christian scholars do not question that they played a role in his work.

That said, let us look at the account dealing with the swine.

Matt 8:28 And when he was come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, there met him two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs, exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by that way.
Matt 8:29 And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?
Matt 8:30 And there was a good way off from them an herd of many swine feeding.
Matt 8:31 So the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine.
Matt 8:32 And he said unto them, Go. And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters. 8:33 And they that kept them fled, and went their ways into the city, and told every thing, and what was befallen to the possessed of the devils.
Matt 8:34 And, behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw him, they besought him that he would depart out of their coasts.

Now if the purpose of this story was to teach a symbolic meaning then it failed miserably. The parables of Jesus were definitely for this purpose and at least some of the meaning was instantly conveyed. BUT if this was the intention here then the purpose failed miserably because maybe one in a thousand see any symbolic insight when reading this. Instead, they see a straightforward historical account.

The details support a true historical account such as naming the area involved and relating about the people being upset that Jesus destroyed their swine and demanding that he leave the area.

Now let us look at other examples of Jesus dealing with invisible unfriendly entities as related by, not one, but all four writers of the Gospels:

Mark 1:34 And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him.

(Note: It is interesting that in several accounts the entities spoke this to Jesus. I’ve never known bad ideas to speak like this.)
Mark 16:9 Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.

Luke 4:40 Now when the sun was setting, all they that had any sick with divers diseases brought them unto him; and he laid his hands on every one of them, and healed them.
Luke 4:41 And devils also came out of many, crying out, and saying, Thou art Christ the Son of God. And he rebuking them suffered them not to speak: for they knew that he was Christ.

Luke 9:1 Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.

John 6:70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?

John 13:2 And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him;

Matt 12:28 But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.
Matt 12:29 Or else how can one enter into a strong man’s house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house.

So according Harry Jesus just cast out bad ideas. I can just see Harrys’ version of Jesus now:

Disciple: “Look Jesus, there’s a couple crazy guys over there. I think they are possessed with some bad ideas.

Jesus: “By George, I think you are right.” Jesus waves his arms at them, “Hey guys. Don’t you realize that running around naked, harassing people and sleeping in tombs is a bad idea?

Naked crazy guy responds: “Wow, that’s more light than I can handle. You must be Jesus. What have you come here for – just to give me a bad time?

Jesus: “Depart ye bad idea and join the ash heap of other bad swine-like ideas.”

And behold, there was a legion of Roman soldiers nearby who had many piggish bad ideas and the bad idea cast out by Jesus entered into their minds. And, lo, this created more confusion for the legion than they could handle and they marched over a cliff into the sea as they were possessed with madness. It was a mere psychological madness of their own creation, however, for no invisible entities or forces were involved.

There is a teaching here for someone somewhere but we know not what it is.

I know, I know, Harry. This is not exactly the way you would write it but it is close enough to make an eerie point.

Now, let us look at some other scriptures dealing with perhaps a different category of evil spirit confronted by Jesus:

Matt 4:24 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.

Matt 8:16 When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick:

Matt 9:32 As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a devil.
Matt 9:33 And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spake: and the multitudes marvelled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel.

In many cases where Jesus healed there is no mention of evil spirits but then in others like the above there is.

In the previous example the possessing entities seemed human like, as if they could have been discarnate entities, but critics could make the case that some of the healings described above were attributed to evil spirits because of the backwardness of the times.

Or could Jesus have been merely going along with the public belief in evil spirits and saying he was casting them out to merely work with the common belief?

It may seem so, but then one must consider that the writers of the gospels were intelligent disciples and not likely to be so easily mislead. So the question that arises is this: Are there a wide rage of diseases and mental disorders that are caused by what the gospel writers call evil spirits or devils?

The answer may surprise you which is this. The answer is yes. All disease involves some so-called evil or adversarial spirit just as was demonstrated by Jesus and his disciples in the scriptures.
.
Before you accuse me of being primitive in my thinking, let me explain.

First, I might add that a stumbling block in the way of understanding this stems more from the translators than the original writers. The translators consistently use the word “devils.”

This word conjures up a primitive thought form that doesn’t relate to modern thinking. If we were to be technically correct we could call them “adversarial life forms”

There are five grades of intelligences that can cause problems for humans.

The first are entities in incarnation. If you are around negative people or those sending hateful thoughts then they indeed have an effect. Energy follows thought and if your spouse is seething with revenge toward you then you will feel and receive such energy and this can definitely effect your health.

We are told that “the word is God” and thus are negative words like mini devils sent to destroy. In fact, one of the meanings of “daimonion” or the Greek for devil is “divine power or deity.”

Negative words sent by live humans are thus like divine devils that have power to destroy.

The solution to the escape this power is to not receive these negative thoughts and words. But if the person slips and allows them to be planted so they grow then he must cast them out even as Jesus did.

The second group of intelligences that can cause problems are discarnate entities. Some of these are highly intelligent and seek to stop those who they see to be working against their best interests. They may do this by attacking the disciple directly or in directly. An example of such an indirect attack was related by John:

“And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him.” John 13:2

The adversarial entities who are intelligent are not large in number and do not waste their time picking on little old ladies, but concentrate on those with potential influence who may get in the way of their plans.

Paul spoke of these entities:
Eph 6:11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

The Concordant version translates verse 12 literally from the Greek as follows:

“Put on the panoply of God to enable you to stand up to the stratagems of the Adversary, for it is not ours to wrestle with blood and flesh, but with the sovereignties, with the authorities, with the world-mights of this darkness, with the spiritual forces of wickedness among the celestials.”

Then there are others in this class, not so intelligent, but still human that cause problems.

The third category of troublesome spirits are what is technically called “etheric shells” or what the common public calls ghosts.

After a person dies he usually hangs around in his etheric body for about three days. This is the energy double that vitalizes and gives form to the physical. After death it normally disintegrates and the entity then moves on to his appropriate place in the afterlife.

On the other hand, if the entity dies with powerful earthbound thoughts, habits or emotional attachments the etheric body can remained vitalized by these energies and continue its existence even after the intelligence has move on.

Such an etheric body will still have a working computer brain housing the memories of this person and can continue a somewhat robotic life and sometimes even appear a ghost, but never one with full human intelligence.

Some attach themselves to humans of low desire. For instance an alcoholic “ghost’ will attach itself to an alcoholic in incarnation and feed the desire.

A fourth type of entity that causes problems are called the astral and these are intelligences lower than human that are composed of emotional/desire energy.

We have all felt these entities but just thought they were a part of ourselves and identified with them. For instance think back to a time you became very angry. Did you notice that the anger seemed to have a life of its own?

Actually, it does. Anger or negative emotions draw astral entities to yourself that have a life of their own, but are fed by your thoughts.

Did you notice that even when you decide you no longer want to remain angry that the feeling of anger may remain? Yes, your mind is no longer angry, but you feel the anger because it still lives as a spirit possessing you for a time. This is an actual lower intelligence that seeks to feed on your energy.

The solution is to cast it out and this is what Jesus did with many astral entities.

A fifth type of adversarial entity is called an elemental. Elementals are the lowest form of intelligence that give us problems and are involved with every disease and malady known to man.

Science is beginning to recognize that disease is largely caused by an imbalance of energy, but what the do not realize is that lack of balance draws in many tiny elemental lives that nestle in the body and interfere with the correct flow of energy.

Jesus had power to speak to these elementals and thus had power to direct them to go elsewhere – or to just dissipate their energy so it had no more effect.
