War, Karma and Questions
Question: How could it be that the Hierarchy could support act war? Wouldn’t that lead to negative karma?
First let me state this. It is illusion to believe that Christ and his Hierarchy will never support war. Of Christ it is written:
“In righteousness he doth judge and make war.” (Rev 19:11)
This scripture dispels two illusions.
First that it is wrong to judge. But on the contrary Christ judges in righteousness. This tells us that good judgement is a positive thing.
Secondly the illusion that war is always wrong. On the contrary we are told here that Christ will actually “make war” in righteousness.
DK gives several examples of this. In a past life, he says that Christ was Krishna and he made war in righteousness.
Then during World War II he says that Christ and the Masters supported the war against Hitler and communicated telepathically with allied leaders in an attempt to assist.
The interesting thing about karma and War is that DK tells us that the nations that will suffer the results of the karma of war more than the Allies who fought evil are those who remained neutral. He said that the neutral nations did incur a debt for not assisting the forces of freedom when they could and will have to correct their errors of judgement in the future.
In any choice the whole effect must be considered. War is indeed terrible, but a loss of freedom that extinguishes the human spirit is much worse. We must always do what is necessary to ensure that freedom reigns or we will suffer a karmic effect worse than a war can produce.
People who are against war in any circumstance must realize that there are worse things than physical injury and death. If you die you merely go to the next sphere and prepare for your next life.
BUT if you lose freedom and yield to tyranny you can suffer an effect that can have a negative effect for many lifetimes.
Question: Aren’t the two sides in a war (called good and evil) working toward the same thing end up in a vicious circle which will repeat itself over and over.
Good and evil are not working toward the same goal any more that Churchill and Hitler were. The Good (Churchill) was working to ensure freedom of the human spirit and Hitler (the evil) was working in subjugate human freedom in the hands of selfish authority.
These are two very different directions of the light and the dark.
During the age of peace, the pure in heart will incarnate and have a rest but those who support tyranny will not be able to incarnate until tyrants arise again.
If you do not support a war to prevent tyranny then you support tyranny. To have your loved ones suffer under a tyrant is worse than being killed.
Question: Does the person who supports killing through war have no soul-infusion?”
Churchill and FDR had millions killed to preserve freedom but they were in contact with Christ and his Hierarchy according to DK. Killing in a war to preserve freedom is a much different thing than killing your spouse to get insurance money.
Question: Why would anyone choose to incarnate here and leave the peaceful land of Spirit?
We are here because we are attracted to form and the experience is gives us. That attraction cannot be just ended in a moment. It takes many lifetimes to free ourselves from it.
Think about it. Are there goals and desires that you still want fulfilled? If the answer is yes, then you will come back.
Question: Isn’t truth in the eye of the beholder?
I don’t think so. If you think 2+2=5 then it is false for all beholders.
Question: How can you see Jesus as benefitting humanity when you see all the wars fought I his name?
You’re looking at the glass half empty when there is a part that is half full.
If you read history about how people treated each other 2000 years ago and how they are today you will see a great improvement and much of that improvement is due to the teachings of Christ. There are always bad apples if you want to look that direction.
Your problem as I see it is you are an idealist who thinks that there should be no pain, hate or discomfort in the world, yet such things abound.
How could there be an all-powerful God if such things exist around us?
The truth is that God is not what the religious world sees but his body is composed of evolving lives such as ourselves and as we progress the life of God progresses.
Question: Your teachings on the Sign of the Son of Man are a lot different from that of Joseph Smith. Why would one with a Mormon background believe you?
One must keep in mind that most scriptures of any depth have at least three valid interpretations.
The scripture reads:
“And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven:” (Matt 24:30)
As noted elsewhere in my writings on this, “heaven” comes from the Greek OURANOS. When we consider that uranium comes from this word, the scripture points toward the atomic bomb as the sign of the son of man.
But another interesting word comes from OURANOS and that is the planet Uranus.
Why is this significant? It is significant because Uranus rules the sign of Aquarius and of course this is the sign of the zodiac that we enter when the coming of Christ occurs.
Where is this mysterious approaching planet of which Joseph Smith spoke? It could be a symbol of Uranus, for Uranus is a sign that many righteous people from the past will be reborn here on earth and assist in creating the coming age — one of peace and enlightenment.
Thus one of the interpretations of a planet representing “The Sign Of The Son Of Man” is fulfilled by the approaching Age of Aquarius represented by the planet Uranus.
Is it possible that a literal planet will show up containing the city of Enoch and the ten tribes?
It is possible, but I am not betting on it in the near future though I do believe that planets move in and out of orbit over cycles of time.
Question: Would you expand on the 777 lives mentioned by DK?
DK gave out the 777 in relation to lives but I believe it was meant to be a symbolic number rather than an exact one as he has specifically said there are more lives than that. I have said I believe the 777 lives represent lives of experience which is based on my intuitive judgment.
Some think that the 777 lives leads up to the first initiation. It is possible but I would say that these lives represent lives of experience leading to the point where the person becomes an aspirant and seeks the reason for his existence. The first initiation shortly follows this.
Question: At what initiation does the labors of Hercules begin? That is if the labors are connected to an initiation and if they are, do the labors always begin in the same sign and then I mean the beginning and end?
I believe the labors begin after the third initiation and end with the fifth. Clockwise through the zodiac is Pisces-Aquarius-Sagittarius, etc. Counterclockwise is Aries-Taurus-Gemini. The labors always begin in Aries. Sometimes it will take more than one life to complete a labor and all lives that work to complete a labor may not take place in the sign of the labor though the first attempt usually will be.
“An enlightened physician, named Paracelsus, during the fifteen century had the same problem with doctors that healers do today.
“In explaining why he had become a medical reformer he said: ‘Since I saw that the (present) doctrine accomplished nothing but the making of corpses, deaths, murder, deformity, cripples, and decay, and had no foundation, I was compelled to pursue the truth in another way, to seek another basis, which I have attained after hard labor.’
“According to Kenneth Walker’s Story of Medicine, Paracelsus said: ‘The best of our popular physicians are the ones who do the least harm. But unfortunately, some poison their patients with mercury, and others purge or bleed them to death. There are some who have learned so much that their learning has driven out all common sense, and there are others who care a great deal more for their own profit than for the health of their patients. […] A physician should be the servant of nature, not her enemy; he should be able to guide and direct her in her struggle for life, and not throw, by his unreasonable influence, fresh obstacles in the way of recovery.’“
