endless battle

Destabilized — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 14:22:13 GMT

who can tell me one thing about life that will exceed the life they already lived?

*what wisdoms did one gain in life?

we are all living life right now,
a life that has seemed like, so far, an eternity,
yet, still so far from complete.

every man has experienced what they've experienced in life,
and nothing one man knows is not but his own wisdom,
his own gathered knowledges and beliefs.****

it goes to show how darn foolish many of us are,

or rather,, how foolish the human race is,

when there is no peace in the world,
we are stuck at wisdoms pertaining TO peace,
or about life in a box.

how to be happy in a life that all in all has us enslaved,

hearing about war everyday is our hell,
and it seems like too, our foolishness is not making a heaven here on earth,

aside from the leaders of the nations of this earth,
we the people should create heaven here on earth.

we are living life, and will continue to,

i wish for everyone to heal that something deep inside us that has been absolutely ravished by the darkness in the world.

this darkness has become part of us,
only because we are exposed to it everyday.

in our life, we can take into our hands the choice and power to be happy and to love one another,

this right now is as far as we can do.

ISness HAPPENS

Sam — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 09:17:00 GMT

(Quietly spoken . . . Almost Silent)

ANYTHING to do with the Mind is an ILLUSION
EVERYTHING connected to MIND is ILLUSIONAL

The very PRIME aspect of Awareness
. . . Has NOT A THING to do with MIND in ANY manifestation, or form

The Humble Buddhist, Visionary, or bod who happens to fall into this Awareness
. . . Having Allowed Awareness to go beyond Mind
. . . Beyond EVERY little skerrick of anything of Mind
. . . Returns to the World, left with a Quandary
. . . May as well go Home and talk to the Cat, about WHAT IS
. . . The Cat purrs, we share that well . . .
The Buddhist I am told, sit for another 10 years to adjust to this experience . . . before doing, saying, anything.

I am not Buddhist . . . and DO NOT have the luxury of being in a society that supports any such experience

AND
. . . There is NOT ONE THING that I or anybody else can say, that will explain anything, that makes any sense to anyone about the experience,

So, it appears this is why many who have this experience become or already are, hermits, or reclusive . . .
Die happy . . .
. . . Quietly
That’s how real IT is . . .
Live your Bliss BUT don’t say anything HEY, like talking about Death to some ? ? ?
HOW many people is IT happening to, in the present time zone of Earth ? ? ? That is my Question ?
Many Blessings hey . . .
Time to plant some lettuces . . .

Dream People

The Passenger — Fri, 16 May 2008 19:16:40 GMT

Dream People

Are the people we meet in dreams real?

As for a person who appears in a dream, an actual person seen when we are awake, no self instituting entity can be found for either of them. They are actually unfindable under such analysis, but, this does not mean there are not actual people or there are no dream people. This just means that they don't exist by their own power.

The Monkey Prophet: by The Passenger

The Passenger — Fri, 16 May 2008 19:11:30 GMT

The monkey Prophet: by The Passenger

( Thank you (friend) for sending me the flyer leaflet that did inspire me to write this story. It saddens me to see the innocent faces of our Monkey friends in the Amazon. They are struggling to cling onto the last few branches of life. Look in to the eyes of a monkey, those soulful eyes. We shall all strive to be so innocent. They are angles and we entertain them unaware.)

Story

One day while God was watching over the valley,and all of creation, god noticed a certain little monkey wandering alone. This monkey was so adorable and cute. God did shed a tear in the way of the little monkey. Suddenly the monkey did gaze upward to the heavens to ponder from where this great pouring out had come. Just then the monkey did catch a glimpse of the face of God. in fact, God did immediately hide his face behind a cloud to with draw the consuming glory, lest the monkey become afraid and die. However, the determined monkey did not die and continued to search the clouds for answers.
For 7 days the monkey did return to that spot in the valley where he caught a glimpse of the face of God. On the 7th day, then God withdrew the cloud and did fully show his face to a faithful little monkey.
" Hey there little fella. Do you see me?" said the Lord.
Ewwe-ee-Ahk_kak_tu"
said the monkey, which was interpreted means,
" here I am father, I look like you"

That day the monkey did play in the play ground called the jungle with the Lord.
' Look what I can do" said the monkey as he swung from one tree to the next.
" look what I can do " said the Lord as he caused the monkey to speak in an Angelic tong.
" hey monkey, what is your name" said the Lord.
"Eek~Ah~Tu" said the monkey, which means " just like you"
' I like that name my son "' said the Lord. " in our new tong I will call you a new name which means ' like Jehovah"
No longer do I call you monkey, but, I call you son. Michaih, do you know where your family is?
" yes father" said Michaih.
" Go bring them to me so that I may fellowship with them and bless them also" said the Lord.
" yes Lord" and immedialty Michaih did disappear in to the shadows of the jungle.
The glory of the Lord did again appear in the valley. As the light covered the land every type of herb, tree, and flower did blossom. Then God did see a pleasing sight. Michaih did retrun with his family. They all did come to see what glory had given their dear brother such wisdom, gifts, and spiritual fruit. By his likeness of the glory that he had witnessed also he reflect onto those whom he loved.
So the monkeys did hide their faces with palm leaves at first. Some even stayed low to the ground beneath the wheat and bowed their heads. Then the father did reach down and touch each of their little heads. Then the spirit did come upon each of them so that they could commune with him in the new tong. Then they were all endued with the power to stand in the presence and glorious light of God. That day God did give them new names, all of them did total about 40. Then God asked
"Do you have freinds also? Go tell them about me."
So the 40 did retreat to the wilderness again to proclaim this word.
The next morning 1600 monkeys did appear in the garden of the Lord. All of the 40 did minister unto them and when they were ready to receive the word of the Lord, God did remove the cloud of doubt away and his light did fill the land.
God did touch each of their hearts and gave them all new names and endued them with spiritual gift. Then God asked them : Do you know others like you in other lands?"
So the monkeys did form in to groups to go proclaim the word unto the far reaches of the land and the Lord did lay down the mountains in the way, so that their path be made straight in the desert.
Then after 7 years 60,000 monkeys did appear behind the sheepfold into the Pasteur of the Lord. Then the Lord did give unto the 60 thousand special offices into which they would go out and build fountains and also walls around the pasture of the Lord..
Then after 40 years the 60 thousand did return with 240,000 workers into the village of the Lord. They did begin to bring treasures and more monkeys in to the village of the Lord.
Then they did ask of the Lord
' Lord, why don't you ever come down in the fullness of your glory to walk with us in our village? Let us build a temple so that you may dwell here with us inside these walls, so that you no longer must hide behind the clouds"
" This will be, as you have requested" said the Lord. However if I come visit you behind the walls and establish my kingdom, you must never leave again. For I will purge the world of all that may come against these gates. So I tell you now, Before you build this temple, go out into every pit and every crack and forgotten isle of the world and tell all that the Lord is coming to dwell on his high and holy mountain. Also set up watchmen at the gates and be watchful for those who are not circumcised at heart. Do blow your trumpet, only when every last one of my children have prepared their hearts to enter in.
Then 144,00 of them went back out into the pits and did rescue all that were lost. And the Lord did come down and bar the gates and purge the lands outside so that no wickedness could grow again outside for 1000 years.
The Lord dwells in the hearts and minds of his son and daughters who are like him
And all this because one monkey did catch a glimpse of the face of God one day, then he went home and told his friends.

The End

Unless you become like on of these little ones, harmless, innocent , pure and teachable, you shall in no way inherit the kingdom of God. We must become like God by putting on Christ. Seeking his face

People need to know the truth

Leslee — Tue, 01 Apr 2008 07:30:08 GMT

Antidepressants ARE causing violence.

It took a freedom of information act to expose the truth. The drug makers have been hiding the negative studies.
http://www.counterpunch.org/cox01272008.html

Now a new Study: Antidepressants Work No Better Than Placebos for the vast majority of depressed people.
http://medicine.plosjournals.org/perlserv/?request=get-document&doi=10.1371/journal.pmed.0050045

The drug makers have been out right lying about the efficacy of antidepressants.They have been caught red handed.

For the majority of people, the drugs are no better then snake oil.

If the only problem was that, the drug is a placebo for the vast majority people who have been given it, I would not care.

But it is far from the only problem!

The Physicians' Desk Reference lists the following adverse reactions (side effects) to antidepressants among a host of other physical and neuropsychiatric effects: manic reaction (mania, e.g. kleptomania, pyromania, dipsomania), emotional lability (or instability), abnormal thinking, alcohol abuse, hallucinations, hostility, lack of emotion, paranoid reaction, amnesia, confusion, agitation, delirum, delusions, hysteria, psychosis, sleep disorders, abnormal dreams, and discontinuation (withdrawal) syndrome. Adverse reactions are especially likely when starting or discontinuing the drug, increasing or lowering the dose or when switching from one SSRI to another SSRI. Adverse reactions are often diagnosed as bipolar disorder when the symptoms could be entirely iatrogenic (treatment induced). Withdrawal, especially abrupt withdrawal, from any of these medications can also cause severe neuropsychiatric and physical symptoms. It is important to withdraw extremely slowly from these drugs, usually over a period of a year or more, under the supervision of a qualified and experienced specialist.

In addition to the adverse reactions listed in the Physicians' Desk Reference, the FDA published a Public Health Advisory on March 22, 2004 which states (in part): "Anxiety, agitation, panic attacks, insomnia, irritability, hostility, impulsivity, akathisia (severe restlessness), hypomania, and mania have been reported in adult and pediatric patients being treated with antidepressants for major depressive disorder as well as for other indications, both psychiatric and nonpsychiatric."

The vast majority of school and other recent massacres have involved people going on or coming off these drugs.

Many otherwise loving parents have killed their own children wile going on or coming off these drugs.

This website is a collection of 2100+ news stories with the full media article available,
www.ssristories.com

I have personally witnessed some who who became scary psychotic and violent wile in withdrawal. Someone who is normally highly, intelligent gentle, kind and loving. This is a person I dearly love.

For some people the often horrendous withdrawal effects last for years after quitting.

Withdrawal effects such as Suicidal thoughts, Suicide attempts, Homicidal thoughts or urges, Chest pain, racing heart, Auditory hallucinations, Visual hallucinations, Disequilibrium, Serious Headache, Numbness, burning, Electric zap-like sensations in the brain, Electric shock-like sensations in the body, Abnormal visual sensations, Spasms in the eyes, Loud ringing or other noises in the ears, Abnormal smells or tastes, Drooling, Slurred speech, Blurred vision, Muscle cramps, stiffness, twitches and much more. Most people describe it as hell.

Frequency of withdrawal reactions
Antidepressant______halflife_______Frequency of withdrawal reactions

Effexor____________5 hours_____________78%
Paxil_____________21 hours_____________66%
Zoloft____________26 hours_____________60%
Prozac___________4-6 days_____________14%

People can become completely incapacitated by SSRI withdrawal.
Reference: “The Antidepressant Solution” by Joseph Glenmullen, M.D.

Suicide, homicide, nightmare side effects all for a drug that is little more then snake oil for the majority of people.

Annunaki Skulls and .........

chilambalam2013 — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 14:12:43 GMT

Where Were You Before The Tree of Life? excerpted here:

The Skull

The next, and perhaps by now fairly obvious interpretation of the Grail as the `physical,' or better yet `non-physical' reality, is that of the original Crystal Skull we have already spoken of. It is in fact the Holy Grail, though not the highest interpretation of same.

When, Wolfram, seemingly the most knowledgeable writer in Grail matters says, "there was a thing called the Grail .. . . A host of angels left it on the earth," it takes us right back to the original story we were told by Barbara Clow of how the Annunaki left their third present here on Earth at the time of their departure. To translate "lapsit exillis" as `stone from the heavens,' `it fell from the heavens,' `a stone fallen from the heavens," only adds to the burden of evidence for this identification of the Grail with the original Crystal Skull.

When Sir Robert tells us in the Perlesvaus of the changing sequence of images or visions seen in the Grail by Perceval `attended by a great light' after ingesting shem-an-na, it is consistent with other portrayals of seeing visions in an altered state of mind within a crystal ball. We shall say more about this later on, but first to fully explain the Crystal Skull and its position as the Grail, we must briefly go over again the history of the Skull, and update it to this point.

The History of the Skull

Again, it is from the works of Barbara Clow that we learned how the skull was brought to Earth "as a gift" by the Annunaki in 10,800 BC. It had been carved on their planet by Spica (or Spicans)—"the divine architect of Atlantis." The biggest problem with the crystal skull being left here was that it was still a 4th dimensional object with 4th dimensional powers—"the crystal is star matter, it would shatter in the atmosphere, but its vibration can be shifted from the fourth dimension into the third."

The difficulty with transferring something as `solid' as the crystal skull from the 4th dimension into the 3rd dimension is the greater density of the vibrations here, hence the idea of it `shattering.' A second problem was the time warp that would surround the object, since time itself is a variable which runs at a differing speed in the 4th dimension as opposed to the 3rd dimension. This explains the need in Grail lore for the bearer to keep their vibrations high, like the virgins of the temple going into the 4th dimensional place at the top of the temple to meet with the Gods for the hierogamous. This would also explain the need to "train" and attune the people brought to serve it, to stay attuned with it to prevent the crystal from being `polluted' as was the central crystal in Atlantis.

The skull's ability to manifest all earthly desires is constantly mentioned—the manifestation of our thoughts, feelings, and desires occurring instantaneously in the 4th dimension. The ancient Sumerian texts talk about the Annunaki using this ability after first `purifying' themselves, to do exactly that: "Enki and Ensile go to the DU.KU, the "purification place" "the creation chamber of the gods," and brought forth Lahore (woolly cattle) and Anshan (grains)," any thing that is already manifested at the 4th dimensional level could be reproduced. To create man as a slave worker, however, they needed to do the hard footwork of the genetic manipulation first.

The Grail Skull's 4th dimensionality explains its association with the Kabbala, and the idea that the Grail is timeless, since it truly exists in a `timeless' 4th dimensional state. It also explains its association with the "stage" of Kabbalistic initiation known as Tiferet, the equivalent to an initiation into the fourth dimension. In the Tiferet experience the individual is said to pass beyond the world of form into the formless—to reach the fourth dimension as it were. This consists of "sacrificial death," the death of the ego or one's sense of individuality and the isolation such individuality entails–and a rebirth or resurrection into another dimension of all encompassing unity and harmony. For medieval Kabbalists the initiation into Tiferet was associated with certain specific symbols which included a hermit, guide or wise old man; a majestic king, and a sacrificed god, to which other symbols were later added—a truncated pyramid, a cube, and a rose cross—many of which are listed as the visions seen in Sir Robert's version of the Grail legend.

Since 1993 alone, the Society of Crystal Skulls has investigated more than 100 crystal skulls. Out of these, only 14 were categorized as possibly 'ancient' and needing further investigation. There are certain characteristics of those specified as ancient—reactions to color, light and sound. The ancient crystal skulls are said to be at a premium among New Age collectors. Some seek fame through ownership, to be known as the "Guardian" of a god. Recently accepted legend tells of ancient skulls even seeking their owners. A skull is capable of giving you its entire history if you know the techniques for accessing the information.

The Crystal Skull is not just a way of seeing the future as suggested by the idea of a crystal ball, although the Skull is in fact the origin of that understanding. The Crystal Skull is a way of manifesting the future. The copies cannot do this, although they have many `magical' powers to boast of. The copies were obviously made by someone who had access to extraordinary skills, someone who had obviously had contact with the real one, and someone who traveled frequently enough to the Yucatan and Mesoamerica where most of the copies have been found. As a Merovingian sorcerer-king in possession of both Atlantean and Druidic knowledge, and having been exposed to the real Grail-Skull, as we shall soon see, Sigesbert/Wotan is the obvious choice for the origin of these copies. Descriptions of him using a flame-thrower to carve out stone temples would relate directly to his Merovingian and Druidic roots, although the flame-thrower was more a representation of his ability to concentrate and use `the dragon energies' in the ley lines of the planet to do exactly that—carve crystal skulls. The diamond symbol that Sitchin is unable to explain represents the use of the crystal to enhance the energies he was using.

The holes drilled in the jaw of the Mitchell Hedges crystal skull to make it appear to speak, show how Sigesbert was able to make himself more of a god to the primitive people he encountered, and who subsequently worshipped him and the Crystal Skull. (One other thing he also took to Mesoamerica was the bloodline of Jesus, and with it the Luciferian gene).

As psychic, Lorraine Darr, said of the Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull: "At times the Skull was a projected form that appeared and felt physical and was not physical at all. And sometimes the Skull was in its physical form. The difference lay in what the intentions of the priests and the teachers were." This would account for the shifting visions of it had by Sir Gawain in the Perlesvaus being `real' and yet not being `real'.

Darr also says that the skull was used as a form of teacher, and as a form of God:

"Magic, yes, because the force-field literally filled the area for hundreds of miles when it was in its physical state that it abides in now, and when it was triggered and the receiver of the thoughts sent on laser beams for the rapid growth of the humans at that time to bring into the human consciousness the culture, the understandings, the capabilities, and the wisdoms of many times."

To rebuild the planet and the consciousness of the people so quickly after the various global catastrophes, something was needed that could upgrade the survivors on a more rapid basis, like the ME's of the Annunaki which stored knowledge of everything they possessed so to, as we have heard, are crystals and the crystal skulls able to house the histories of the planet, of Atlantean technology and so on and so forth. Thus the Crystal Skull would have stored the records of Jesus as well, accounting for the visions of babies and crucified persons not specifically listed as Jesus.

Like the Spican crystal that was the interface between earth and sky in the Atlantean temple form and kept the land bountiful, so too does the Grail in Grail lore bring about bounty to the lands of those who possess it—"will the wound of the Fisher King be healed , and the Wasteland returned to fertility." In Arthurian legends such as that used in the movie, Excalibur, the expression "you and the land are one," and "you and the Grail are one," are common references to this effect had by the King and the Grail upon the land.

Darr also says that the skull appeared and communicated with Quetzalcoatl "for a period of time. It brought him into communication with his brothers in the far reaches." The various incarnations of Lucifer such as Moses and Ra and Jesus himself all had access to this power source, and used it with great skill and great knowledge to manifest what they needed to complete the assigned mission of each of their various lifetimes.

One version of the much-sought-after mysterious painting by Poussin called `Les Bergers d'Arcadie' shows the mystical tomb in the forest topped by a skull. Hamlet's soliloquy of `to be or not to be' with a skull held in his hand has a far deeper meaning when looked at in the light of Shakespeare's mystical knowledge gained from friends in the secret societies of the age.

The channeled entity Adamis, referring to the crystal skulls, says: "They were created as keepers of records. They contain energy patterns that record the history of the construction of your universe, and of descending hierarchical figures that faced the Universe in Divine Order." (The different channelings on this subject provided many varied interpretations of the skulls and their origins.)

Upon their departure, the Annunaki left the Crystal Skull as an oracle in the Temple at Ur.. It was in Ur that Abraham's father Terach, the `oracle priest' knew of the Skull, and the influence it had on keeping the land productive by its ability to forecast and draw in higher dimensional star energies. When Terach and his family were told to leave Ur, by the predictions of the Crystal Skull, it went with them, and the power of Sumer crumbled.

"When they overthrew, when order they destroyed. Then like a deluge all things together consumed. Whereunto, Oh Sumer! did they change thee? The Sacred Dynasty from the Temple they exiled."

Upon his father's death, Abraham took control of the Skull, and allowed it to lead he and his family to where they were wanted. It is on the `advice' of the Skull that Abraham went into Egypt and returned as an even wealthier person.

Abraham knew how to use and be used by the Skull. And he passed this knowledge along with it. His use of these powers, as he was directed, resulted in the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah—an incident we earlier described briefly as being caused by `a nuclear weapon', which in fact the Crystal Skull can be when used in this way.

Along the way Joseph inherited it from Jacob, the idea of Joseph being sold into slavery by his brothers being untrue. Joseph became Vizier to Thuthmosis IV, pharaoh of Egypt, and he was able to translate the pharaoh's dreams and forecast the times of feast and famine using the powers of the Skull. From Joseph, Vizier to the Pharaoh Thuthmosis IV, it went to Amenhotep IV, better known as Akhenaton, whom we now know as Moses. And when Moses left Egypt, the Crystal Skull went with him to provide guidance and food each day for all the tribes of Israel, much as the Grail is described to provide food for all its guards and servants. The third incarnation of Lucifer was in possession of the Crystal Skull.

Moses and the children of Israel arrived at Mt. Sinai, and the `burning bush' that awaited Moses there was not really a burning bush, but a very brilliant and active Crystal Skull, providing sapphire tablets etched by the laser-like "finger of God."

David was a later inheritor of the Crystal Skull, and eventually it passed on to Solomon, becoming housed in the Holy of Holies in the Temple of Solomon as the source of guidance from the temple, and the source of Solomon's wisdom.

"I flash into the center of the Temple of Solomon to stand in front of the central throne of the judge. There. I see a great being who holds a gigantic crystal ball . . . Suddenly I realize that this crystal--the key to the psychic realms--was made by ourselves, the Nibiruans. It is a highly polished asteroid that we picked out of the Sirius star system long ago. We removed layers of burned incrustation and polished it, brought it to Earth, and placed it in the center of the Temple of Solomon."

The crystal skull is as such, an all-seeing eye, just as has been mentioned was used in the Temple of Solomon. The skull remained in the temple until the exile in Babylonia when it was moved from `hand to hand' down through the line of prophets providing them with much of their powers. When the temple was rebuilt under the aegis of Cyris, the skull came back to the temple and was later transferred into the new temple built by Herod upon the exact sight of the original.

The real Grail became associated with Jesus when it was removed from the temple by Jesus' brother, James, and was then indeed brought to France, as legend describes, by Mary Magdalene. Note here how the power moves with the Grail, Sumeria falling into ruin after it is removed by Terach, Egypt falling into ruin after it is taken by Moses, Palestine falling into chaos after it is removed by Joseph and Jesus. Its effect on the land is potent.

Jesus, Mary, and their children are sustained by the Grail in their new home, although Jesus still travels. When he eventually leaves for good, and Mary passes on, the skull is hidden in a tomb for everyone's safety. This is the tomb depicted in Poussin's painting, `Les Bergers d'Arcadie,' which we shall see seems to hold a shrine status to many of the secret societies, as well as kings and the other powerful men of history.

The inscription on the tomb in the painting reads, ET IN ARCADIA EGO—"And in Arcadia I . . ."—which translated is an anagram of I TEGO ARCANA DEI—"Begone! I conceal the secrets of God."

The next time the Grail-Skull comes out is for Dagobert II because he marries the Visigoths niece, has the bloodline of Jesus, and needs to regain his throne, which he does very quickly.

One of history's best known Grail fairies was Princess Melusine, daughter of the Pictish King, Elinas of Alba - a descendant of the 2nd-century King Vere of Caledonia, Lord of the Dragon. In the year 733AD, Melusine (maintaining the family heritage) married Rainfroi de Vere, Prince of Anjou—the mysterious son of Dagobert II, also known as Sigebert (III), and among their offspring was Count Maelo, the commander of Emperor Charlemagne's army. From Maelo's own marriage to Charlemagne's sister sprang the Vere Counts of Guisnes who were the reputed Elf-kings and became England's Great Chamberlains and Earls of Oxford.

Melusine, as always with the female line, had many associations with fountains, springs and water in general. In later times these queens were commonly represented as mermaids (mere maids), and were often called Ladies of the Lake. This was a style granted to Mary Magdalene when she had settled in Provence from AD 44. Thus the marriage between Melusine and Rainfroi or Sigebert was also dually desposynic—bringing together two of those in whose veins ran the bloodline of Jesus and the Magdalen.

It is for the Skull that Dagobert II is killed, not to end the bloodline, but for the Grail. His assassins do not get it, however. It is rescued along with Sigesbert (variously titled III or IV) and taken at first to his mother's home at Rennes-le-Chateau in the Languedoc in 679 AD. Although it does not go to the Yucatan with him, the original remaining hidden in Ireland among relations from Dagobert's first marriage, Sigesbert does however have the copies created, some of which have now been found in Mesoamerica. Upon his final return to Europe the Grail-Skull winds up in the hands of his protectors, the founders of the organization that would later become the Prieure De Sion and the Templars—the protectors of the bloodline.

The dispute between the two organizations in Giscors in 1188 that eventually split them, and which no one can seem to justify, was over possession and guardianship of the Grail-Skull.

Under the auspices of Bernard de Blanchefort, fourth grand master of the Order of the Temple, something was later concealed in the vicinity of Rennes-le-Chateau—something for which a contingent of German miners were imported under the most stringent security to excavate and construct a hiding place. Some have suggested that this work was done to house the Holy Grail (housing of the Skull would demand a special environment to preserve it from being shattered in the 3rd dimensional world).

In Holy Blood, Holy Grail, recent high officials of the Prieure de Sion have made statements that seem to confirm some world-shaking secret kept by them that obviously seems to go beyond just the revelation of Jesus' continuing lineage. In 1960, when he was interviewed, M. Plantard spoke of an "international secret" concealed at Giscors. M. Chaumeil emphasized the antiquity of the Prieure de Sion and that its objectives were not exclusively confined to restoring the Merovingian bloodline. He declared that the Prieure did in fact hold the lost treasure of the Temple of Jerusalem—the booty plundered by Titus's Roman legions in AD 70, and it would be returned to Israel "when the time is right." He also implied that this "spiritual treasure" consisted, at least in part, of a secret that would facilitate a major social change.

It is around the discovery made by Berenger Sauniere in Rennes-le-Chateau in 1891 that books such as Holy Blood, Holy Grail are centered in there quest for the meaning of the Holy Grail. Rennes-le-Chateau, once known as Rhedae, was the official residence of Giselle de Razes, Dagobert II's second wife and niece of the king of the Visigoths, one time caretakers of the treasures of Solomon's Temple plundered from Rome. It was in the church, the foundations of which later became the foundations for Berenger Sauniere's church, that Dagobert and Giselle are said to have been married. They then resided in the area for more than three years.

During Sauniere's redecoration of this church four parchments were found under the altar stones which rested on two hollow Visigoth columns, a place where the Templars are known to have stored their important artifacts and documents and a well-publicized purpose for the pillars of various temples.

Two of the parchments are said to have comprised genealogies, one dating from 1244, the other from 1644. The two remaining documents had apparently been composed in the 1780s by one of Sauniere's predecessors—the Abbe' Antoine Bigou (personal chaplain to the noble Blanchefort family, who on the eve of the French Revolution, were still among the most prominent local landowners).

One message said, "To Dagobert II King and to Sion belongs this treasure and he is there dead." Other messages in the parchments seemed to suggest that Poussin's painting "Les Bergier des Arcadie" held "the key." The key to what it does not say, although some of the code in the messages has not been able to be translated. Without a doubt though it has to do with the Grail and to the secret of the Crystal Skull, for in the subsequent renovations, Sauniere exhumed a curiously carved flagstone dating from the seventh or eighth century—the time of Dagobert and Sigesbert. Beneath this flagstone there may have been a crypt, a burial chamber in which skeletons were said to have been found. What was, in truth, found as well as the skeletons were specific references to the Grail—the Crystal Skull, by then in the hands of the Prieure de Sion.

Many have seen the Grail as evil, and as one can imagine, to poorly educated Christian country folk, the powers it invests in people could easily be seen to be `of the devil'. In his discoveries at Rennes-le Chateau, it seems evident that the Grail's power was also perceived this way by Sauniere, and he reflected this view in his subsequent redecoration of the church.

Over the next few months, Sauniere became very wealthy and did business with important figures from all over Europe. The redecoration was then able to be done in a much more lavish and most bizarre style. A Latin inscription incised in the porch lintel above the entrance reads: Terribilis est locus iste ("This place is terrible"); a gaudy representation of the demon Asmodeus—custodian of secrets, guardian of hidden treasures--and according to ancient Judaic legend, builder of Solomon's temple—was erected inside the entrance.

Visitors came to Sauniere from far and wide, among them the Archduke Johann von Habsburg, a cousin of Franz Josef, emperor of Austria. Bank statements subsequently revealed that Sauniere and the Archduke had opened consecutive accounts on the same day and that the latter had paid over a substantial sum to Sauniere.

The Vatican exonerated Sauniere of any wrong doing, more likely than not being scared of the power he now wielded through the knowledge he had acquired of Jesus' still existent royal lineage.

Rennes-le-Chateau seems to have been central to much of the history of the Grail since it arrived in Europe. It was also of great interest to many other parties as well, among them the Nazis who during WWII commissioned excavations in the area apparently to look for the Grail. Wagner is also said to have composed his opera Parsifal after visiting that particular location.

It was through knowledge acquired in the use of the Grail that Godfroi de Boullion was sent to Jerusalem to acquire the Tablets of Testimony and the rest of the treasures of the temple.

Grail lore reached its height in mediaeval times around the time of the Templars. `Baphomet', the god whom the Templars were accused of worshipping, "on other occasions seems to be associated with an apparition of a bearded head . . ." In their worship, The Templars "surrounded or touched each head of the aforesaid idols with small chords, which they wore around themselves next to the shirt or flesh . . . But most striking in the list is the head's purported capacity to engender riches, make trees flower, and bring fertility to the land. These properties coincide remarkably with those ascribed in the romances to the Holy Grail."

The Templars rise to international prominence was remarkably swift and they became advisers to monarchs and parliaments alike, much as Joseph had once done in ancient Egypt. Certainly they must have literally wielded some ungodly power to rise to the levels they did so quickly, to become kingmakers, and to have no one above them but the Pope himself.

It was this power and their knowledge that also led to their downfall. They learned the lessons of secrecy, much as their descendants, the Masons, have been so adept at putting into practice.

The cord mentioned is reminiscent too of that worn by the Cathars who were often said to have been associated with the Grail. The premise that the Cathars held an unsurpassed treasure more historically meaningful than the root of Christianity, it is said, led Rome to exterminate the ascetic Cathari sect in the savage campaign called the Albigensian Crusade, culminating in the hideous massacre at Montsegur where the treasure was supposedly hidden.

During research for the war crimes trials at Nuremberg, it was discovered that Hitler had ordered that the heads of pure young Aryan Germans be cut off in an attempt to communicate with ascended masters from the East through these disembodied heads. There is an obvious connection here to the powers of the Grail, an object for which the Nazis spent so much energy searching. Rituals such as this, and even the shrunken heads kept by cannibalistic tribes, all suggest at least some passing acquaintance with the original Crystal Skull, or at least one of its fanciful copies.

This connection between the two would also make sense of the skull portrayed in the paintings by Poussin of the mystical tomb. The references to Golgotha as `the place of the skull' in one gospel would make sense if it was kept for so long in Jerusalem.

In and of itself, the Grail is a portal into the fourth dimension, and beyond. And it is more than just a one way ticket out—it can also be used for those coming into the planet to arrive, a dangerous attribute for our planet's future:

"But this time we have created a new way for Earthlings to become star people: cellular attunement to the corridor between Earth and sky through resonation with the galactic diamond."

In her discussion of the Mayans and Egyptians as teaching races with direct links to the Pleiades, Barbara Clow happens to mention further the ability of the skulls to act as portals:

"So Maya deposited a crystal skull at Saquarra in a deep pit near the Pyramid of Unas, during the reign of Merne. That skull was activated and the portal reopened in AD 1990."

It is also therefore a time machine for it allows people to travel interdimensionally and be able to come out on the other end, as it were, through the power of the skull. This is the same ability it was mentioned that the Pyramids once possessed, and will again.

Wolfram and the Original Legend

The original story of how Wolfram first heard the story of the Grail is worth telling at this time because in it is suggested the true translation of its symbolism.

Wolfram explains that he first got the information from one Kyot de Provence—who in turn received it from a man named Flegetanis:

"Anyone who asked me before about the Grail and took me to task for not telling him was very much in the wrong. Kyot asked me not to reveal this, for Adventure commanded him to give it no thought until she herself, Adventure, should invite the telling, and then one must speak of it, of course.

"Kyot, the well-known master, found in Toledo, discarded, set down in heathen writing, the first source of this adventure.. He first had to learn the abc's, but without the art of black magic . . .

"A heathen, Flegetanis, had achieved high renown for his learning. This scholar of nature was descended from Solomon and born of a family which had long been Israelite until baptism became our shield against the fire of Hell. He wrote the adventure of the Grail. On his father's side, Flegetanis was a heathen, who worshiped a calf . . .

"The heathen Flegetanis could tell us how all the stars set and rise again . . . To the circling course of the stars man's affairs and destiny are linked. Flegetanis the heathen saw with his own eyes in the constellations things he was shy to talk about, hidden mysteries. He said there was a thing called the Grail, whose name he had read clearly in the constellations (which we shall deal with). A host of angels left it on the earth. Since then, baptized men have had the task of guarding it, and with such chaste discipline that those who are called to the service of the Grail are always noble men. Thus wrote Flegetanis of these things.

"Kyot, the wise master, set about to trace this tale in Latin books, to see where there ever had been a people, dedicated to purity and worthy of caring for the Grail. He read the chronicles of the lands, in Britain and elsewhere, in France and in Ireland, and in Anjou he found the tale. There he read the true story of Mazadan, and the exact record of all his family was written there."

Kyot de Provence has been traced to Guiot de Provins—a troubadour, monk, and spokesman for the Templars. It is thought most probable that Wolfram and Guiot may have met in Germany in 1184 at the chivalric festival of Pentecost at which the Holy Roman Emperor, Frederick Barbarossa, conferred knighthood upon his sons. Flegetanis is presumed to be a real person as well, and Toledo was a center of esoteric studies, both Judaic and Muslim, at the time.

Explanations and the Grail Legend

The symbolism related to the Grail and to Grail lore has many layers of meaning much like the symbolism of Masonry and other secret societies, and much like the Ancient Mysteries themselves which have various levels of interpretation to be known by each initiation level.
While the Grail is in fact the Crystal Skull with all its multitude of powers and abilities, the Grail legends and Grail lore that have been built up around it, relate at a higher level to the Ancient Mysteries themselves, of which the Crystal Skull is but a representative. .

Wolf Cry

Phlogiston — Wed, 14 May 2008 13:02:55 GMT

URGENT MESSAGE

Wolf Cry

By: Sharon McErlane

Two days ago I was awakened in the early morning hours with this message: "Call your tribe." I am not an indigenous person so the word 'tribe' coming at me like this is a bit startling. However, working with the Great Council of the Grandmothers who have come to return the earth to balance, and working with the teaching and helping spirits of the upper and lower world have taught me to sit loose in the saddle and let myself go where I am being guided.

It was Wolf, the great teacher, who was speaking. "Call your tribe," he said again. "Call them and tell them the time is NOW! They are needed!" he emphasized. " More people are needed to do the work of holding the Net of Light at this time," he said. "Tell them to call on the Net of Light and take their place on it. Ask them to then hold it and cast the Net further and further. Wherever there is suffering on earth and where there are people who long to serve, but don't know how-cast the Net of Light," he said. "Tell everyone you know," he said, "and write an article calling people to the Net of Light." When the spirits speak to me like this, I listen.

The Net of Light is called by different names. Web of Light, Grid of Light, Indra's Net, Net of Life and Net of Light are a few. They all, however, refer to the same thing. The Great Council of the Grandmothers say, "This is the Net of Light that will hold the earth during the times of change that are now upon you." ("A Call to Power: the Grandmothers Speak" by Sharon McErlane)

A few weeks ago the Grandmothers said, "In addition to casting the Net of Light wherever there is suffering on the earth, begin now to also cast to people who are disturbed by the rise of negativity on earth and want to help in some way. Many of them have no spiritual path to follow," they said. " They cannot relate to organized religion and they have not found a way that speaks to their heart. We ask you to cast the Net of Light to them now," they said, "so the Net can take them to their path." When Wolf woke me in the middle of the night he was basically repeating what the Grandmothers had said, except that his message was much more urgent, ("Tell them that the time is NOW!")

It is my experience that the Grandmothers and the helping spirits do not mess around and they ask that now we not mess around either. They are asking for our help. You can think of the Net as a lighted fishnet that covers the earth, holds it from above, from below and at the same time penetrates the body of the planet as well as the body of everything that lives here on earth. The Net is lit by the jewel of the heart of each person who holds it; it is held in selfless service.

The Grandmothers urge us to "Go forward now and take your place on the Net of Light. Somewhere where two strands come together is a place that will feel just right for you. Walk forward now and take your place. Hold this place on the Net and let the Net hold you. You hold and you are held in light," they say.

At this point there are thousands of people working with the Net of Light through the Grandmothers network as well as seventy Grandmothers groups focused on spreading their message in different countries of the world. The Grandmothers say, "From this place on the Net of Light, cast now to those who do not know that they too are held in light. Cast to those who are suffering and also to those who wish to help with this work but who have not had a way to access the healing, love of the Net of Light. We ask you to do this for yourself," they say, "and for everything that lives. And as you work with the Net of Light," they add, "you will become a walking blessing upon the earth.

"We bless you.

Both the Grandmothers' website: www.grandmothersspeak.com, and 'A Call to Power: the Grandmothers Speak' give a more detailed explanation of the Net of Light.

We have been asked to get this message to as many people as possible, so if you have suggestions as to where we might post this (magazines, newsletters, etc.), please get back to me. Also please forward to people who would resonate with this urgent message.

I salute the beauty/power within you, Sharon McErlane

WARRIOR SPIRIT

The Passenger — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 09:40:43 GMT

The first step on the path to a two-spirit life was taken during childhood. The Papago ritual is representative of this early integration: If parents noticed that a son was disinterested in boyish play or manly work they would set up a ceremony to determine which way the boy would be brought up. They would make an enclosure of brush, and place in the center both a man’s bow and a woman’s basket. The boy was told to go inside the circle of brush and to bring something out, and as he entered the brush would be set on fire. “They watched what he took with him as he ran out, and if it was the basketry materials they reconciled [sic] themselves to his being a berdache.”

The Mohave ritual, usually carried out when the child is between the ages of nine and twelve, has a different form, but keeps the central element of allowing the child’s nature to manifest itself: A singing circle is prepared, unbeknownst to the boy, involving the whole community as well as distant friends and relatives. On the day of the ceremony everyone gathers round and the boy is led into the middle of the circle. If he remains there, the singer, hidden in the crowd, begins to sing the ritual songs and the boy, if he is destined to follow the two-spirit road, starts to dance in the fashion of a woman. “He cannot help it,” say the Mohave. After the fourth song the boy is declared to be a two-spirit person and is raised from then on in the appropriate manner.

What manner was that? It consisted of teaching the young boy to do women’s work as well as that reserved for men. He would also spend time with healers, often two-spirit people themselves. Above all, his childhood was marked by acceptance and understanding. That did not necessarily insulate the boy from being ribbed about his ‘otherness.’ Joseph Quinones, the cousin of a Yaqui two-spirit youth, relates that: “One time we kids got down on him for not being typically masculine, but my Great Aunt, who is the clan matriarch, came down on us real strongly. She said it was part of his character and we should respect him.”

In recent times that pattern of acceptance has been undermined by the boarding school education forced upon native children, by the influence of Christian missionaries, and increasingly by the encroachment of television into the psychic space of the tribe, with the result that two-spirit people are more and more being viewed with suspicion by the less traditionalist in their community. Robert Stoller observes the “… deterioration in American Indians of techniques for ritualizing cross-gender behavior. No longer is a place provided for the role - more, the identity - of a male-woman, the dimensions of which are fixed by customs, rules, tradeoffs and responsibilities. The tribes have forgotten. Instead, this role appears as a ghost."

All tribes were aware of the existence of two-spirit people, and each still has a name for them. The Dinéh (Navaho) refer to them as nàdleehé one who is ‘transformed’, the Lakota (Sioux) as winkte, the Mohave as alyha, the Zuni as lhamana, the Omaha as mexoga, the Aleut and Kodiak as achnucek, the Zapotec as ira’ muxe, the Cheyenne as he man eh. This abundance of terms testifies to the familiarity of Native Americans with gender-variant people. For proof of the sacred role they held, and hold, in Native society we again turn to Native sources. Terry Calling Eagle, a Lakota man, recounts: “Winktes have to be born that way. People know that a person is going to become a winkte very early in his life. At about age twelve parents will take him to a ceremony to communicate with past winktes who had power, to verify if it is just a phase or a permanent thing for his lifetime. If the proper vision takes place, and communication with a past winkte is established, then everybody accepts him as a winkte.”

Claire R. Farrer, an anthropologist who has “gone native” in the best sense of the term, reports on the present situation among the Mescalero Apache: “Multigendered adult people at Mescalero are usually presumed to be people of power. Because they have both maleness and femaleness totally entwined in one body, they are known to be able to ‘see’ with the eyes of both proper men and proper women. They are often called upon to be healers, or mediators, or interpreters of dreams, or expected to become singers or others whose lives are devoted to the welfare of the group. If they do extraordinary things in any aspect of life, it is assumed that they have the license and power to do so and, therefore, they are not questioned.”

In everyday life the two-spirit male typically would wear women’s clothes and do women’s work. He would be accepted as “one of the girls.” He might take a husband from among the men of the tribe, or might have affairs with several, or both. Generally two-spirit males were not expected to have sexual relations with women. None of these “rules” however were ironbound. Again and again we see that variation from the norm, change, transformation, and fluidity of roles for those who felt called to that path was welcomed and appreciated. Here we have to confront a very real epistemological problem: it is impossible to define precisely what two-spirit experience is. Though all agree such individuals exist, “the particulars of that identity remain variable.” We may have to content ourselves with the explanation offered by P.K., one of Carolyn Epple’s Dinéh teachers, who said that we need to “… see nàdleehé as human beings responding to situations.”

Besides their spiritual abilities, their capacity for work also figured into the high status of two-spirit people. Even though a two-spirit male would have taken on the gender identity of a woman, he would still have the endurance and strength of a man. Thus his productivity was greater than that of most women, and for that reason also he would have been valued as a marriage partner. Other characteristics that Natives associate with two-spirit people and that help explain their desirability as partners are a highly developed ability to relate to and teach children, a generous nature, and exceptional intellectual and artistic skills.

As mentioned before, many of the ancient two-spirit ways are no longer being practiced. Nonetheless Native two-spirit peoples are experiencing a re-awakening to the validity, and to the cultural and spiritual roots, of their inner calling. Many who, as a result of the cultural scorched-earth policies of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, had sought escape from isolation and rejection by adopting modern “gay” identities are now reconnecting with their heritage by way of groups like the Native Gay and Lesbian Gathering. They are re-interpreting their identity in terms dictated neither by white culture nor by ancient customs, or perhaps by both. The result is a mix peculiarly their own, which by breaking with both traditional as well as modern forms remains true to the essence of the two-spirit life. As Michael Red Earth tells it: “In today’s world it is easy to become confused by titles: gay, straight, bi, winkte or queer. For me, once I realized that my family was responding to me and interacting with me with respect and acceptance, and once I realized that this respect and acceptance was a legacy of our traditional Native past, I was empowered to present my whole self to the world and reassume the responsibilities of being a two-spirited person.”

Though, due to the nature of this site, the discussion so far has been limited to the male experience in Native American societies, this should not be construed to mean that the two-spirit path was, or is, closed to women. If any conclusion can be drawn from what we know about gender variation in traditional Native society it is that gender flexibility in any individual is welcomed as a rare and precious aspect of human experience, a special talent to live life in a fresh, spontaneously authentic way that enriches and empowers the lives of all in the community. It is a lasting testament to the psychological sophistication of Native tribes that they recognized two-spirit people as being engines of creativity, change and innovation (much as they have been in other cultures and continue to be in ours) and co-operated in creating the sacred space in which such people could manifest. As Joe Medicine Crow, a Crow traditionalist, told Walter Williams, “We don’t waste people the way white society does. Every person has their gift.”

Remote viewing Tibetan monks see Extra Terrestrial powers saving the World from destroying itself in 2012

chilambalam2013 — Mon, 12 May 2008 21:54:57 GMT

Remote viewing Tibetan monks see Extra Terrestrial powers saving the World from destroying itself in 2012
N.K. Subramanium, Special Correspondent
December 26, 2004

Remote viewing is nothing new in Tibetan monasteries. For thousands of years remote viewing in the middle of other spiritual activities have dominated Tibetan culture. What some Indian tourists came to learn from a few Tibetan monasteries under the current Chinese rule is extremely alarming and fascinating.

According to these tourists remote viewers are seeing world powers in the course of self-destruction. They also see that the world will not be destroyed. Between now and 2012 the world super powers will continue to engage in regional wars. Terrorism and covert war will be the main problem. In world politics something will happen in and around 2010. At that time the world powers will threaten to destroy each other.

Between 2010 and 2012, the whole world will get polarized and prepare for the ultimate dooms day. Heavy political maneuvers and negotiations will take place with little progress.

In 2012, the world will start plunging into a total destructive nuclear war.

And at that time something remarkable will happen, says, Buddhist monk of Tibet. Supernatural divine powers will intervene. The destiny of the world is not to self-destruct at this time.

Scientific interpretation of the monks’ statements makes it evident that the Extra Terrestrial powers are watching us every step of the way. They will intervene in 2012 and save the world from self-destruction.

When asked about recent UFO sightings in India and China, the monks smiled and said the divine powers are watching us all. Mankind cannot and will not be allowed to alter the future to that great extent.

Every human being though their current acts in life called “Karma” can alter the future lives to some extent, but changing the destiny in that large extent will not be allowed to that great an extent.

Monks also mentioned that beyond 2012 our current civilization would understand that the final frontier of science and technology is in area of spirituality and not material physics and chemistry. Beyond 2012, out technologies will take a different direction. People will learn the essence of spirituality, the relation between body and the soul, the reincarnation and the fact we are connected with each other are all part of “God”.

In India and China UFO sightings have increased in many folds. Many say the Chinese and Indian Governments are being contacted by the Extra Terrestrials.

In recent days most UFO activities have been seen in those countries who have indigenously developed Nuke capabilities.

When asked if these extra-terrestrials will show up in reality in 2012, the answers remote viewers are giving is: they will reveal themselves in such a way that none of us scared. They will reveal themselves only if they have to. As our science and technology progresses, we are destined to see them and interact with them any way.

According to the remote viewers, our earth is blessed and is being saved continuously from all kinds of hazards all the time that we are not even aware of. As our technologies progress we will realize how external forces saved us.

The Origin of Tarot Cards

The Passenger — Mon, 24 Mar 2008 05:14:45 GMT

Apparently, Tarot cards weren't always used to tell peoples' fortunes - they originally made up a game called "tarocchi" that was popular with the Italian nobility in the 15th century. Tarocchi was played much like bridge or whist, except that there was a fifth suit of cards which trumped all the other suits. The earliest recorded use of tarot cards in fortune telling is in Venice, Italy in 1527, but the fad didn't take off until 1781, when a French scholar proposed that cards in the deck contained the knowledge of the Egyptian hieroglyphic "Book of Thoth", which he claimed had been saved from the ruins of sacked and burned Egyptian temples centuries earlier.

Smells like holy spirit

chilambalam2013 — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 00:28:54 GMT

Heaven scent

Did early Christians smell inspiration? Susan Ashbrook Harvey's book Scenting Salvation: Ancient Christianity and the Olfactory Imagination assures us that yes, they did. The book might, metaphorically, help other academics to wake up and smell the coffee: here is a pungent research topic that researchers have, until now, hardly bothered to sniff at.

Harvey is professor of religious studies at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. Her 442-page tome explores (1) the most compelling odours, and (2) what and how early Christians thought about those odours.

The table of contents offers topics to tempt even a casual bookstore browser. Read these items aloud to a friend or loved one, and you'll see:

The Olfactory Context: Smelling the Early Christian World
A Martyr's Scent
Olfaction and Christian Knowing
Sanctity and Stench
Asceticism: Holy Stench, Holy Weapon

At least one other soul is spreading the word about scenting salvation. Brent Landau, a doctoral student at Harvard Divinity School, published an appreciative essay in the Bryn Mawr Classical Review.

Harvey is not the first to savour early Christian smells, Landau reminds us. But "her book represents the most comprehensive work on this subject. If there is a watchword that characterises Harvey's research, it is most certainly 'ambiguity'; for not only do odours themselves straddle the line between corporeal and incorporeal, but the judgment of what makes a given smell 'good' or 'bad' changes drastically for Christian interpreters depending upon the circumstances."

In addition to writing the book, Harvey gives talks about her work at academic conferences. She also publishes specialised studies. One of them, 1998's St Ephrem on the Scent of Salvation, tells how, in the fourth century, odours delivered both good news and bad news: "Ephrem emphasises the experience of smell as the means by which the believer encounters the divine ... and learns God's favour or disfavour."

The study of Christian olfaction once was lost, but now is found. Harvey tells us that, in the fifth century, Christian writers regularly wrote about "an olfactory dialogue in which human and divine each approached the other through scent". Harvey has started a dialogue about that dialogue about smells.

Defineition of different kinds of Spirits

The Passenger — Wed, 05 Mar 2008 05:12:47 GMT

What are Devas?

The word deva comes from the Sanskrit language, meaning "a being of brilliant light" and is used to indicate a non-physical being. We are using the word deva here as a general name for both nature spirits and angelic beings.

How did devas come into being? It is said that in the beginning, when earth solidified and the physical life forms were formed, the devas were so far behind in evolution that they could not form physical bodies.

Consciousness of the devas is directed to expansion in contrast to our consciousness that is focused and limited by the form of the human body. Devas are always conscious of their cosmic environment, and want to become ever more conscious of that what they encompass. Devic beings want to be, while physical beings want to do. Devic beings concentrate creating, while physical beings want to develop.

Devas have an instinctive knowledge, they do not have to acquire knowledge like we do. The have instinctive knowledge of cosmic patterns, relationships, and harmonies.

They do not have form as we understand form in the physical world. In their, astral, realm they are like fluidic open vortexes of cosmic consciousness. When people are able to perceive them, they often will take a form extracted from the human mind. Thus we will see them in a more or less human form, but in essence they are only vortexes of energies.

They have memory and learn from past experiences. They are conscious of the archetypes of the field in which they work. They react to and improve their work according to the physical influences on the life forms with which they work. They are only interested in their own field of work. For example, the deva of the oak trees is only interested in the growth of oak trees, a landscape deva is only interested in the life forms of that landscape, a healing deva only works with healing energies. It is therefore useless to ask a oak tree deva how to heal a human body. Devas are only knowledgeable in their own particular field.

Working with devas is of a mutual benefit. Devas acquire experience of focused consciousness and action, while humans can learn to surrender to the silence of the devic consciousness and its sensitivity to cosmic influences. Devas are always willing to help people.

Many people have tried to classify and name the numerous nature spirits, but one has to understand that there are many, many forms of nature spirits, and one form blends over into another. On top of that their names are not consistent among the authors who classified them. But what does it matter, the most important thing, is that you have an idea of what they are and what they do. If you are really interested in working with nature spirits, I recommend the books of Marko Poganick (see end page).

The Lower Elemental Devas

Element Earth

Gnomes

Gnomes are connected to the earth element, which includes the minerals. They live inside the earth, although there are some forest gnomes, who take care of the forest on the level of the earth element. They vary in size from 2 to 3 feet. They look a bit knotty, gnarled, and in general they are a bit gruff, and do not trust easily humans.

Gnomes take care not only of the earth and minerals, but also of the roots of plants. They have strong senses and intellect. They understand what they hear and see. They not only receive the cosmic influences, but also ideas. They have a clear consciousness.

A plant receives energies from the cosmos and lets them sink into the soil, where the gnomes collect this information and pass it on to the earth, to all the minerals. Their knowledge is immediate, that is, when they receive information through their senses they immediately ‘know’. Because they have a universal intellect they tend to look down on humans as incomplete beings. They don’t have to think things over as we do, thus they think that we are dumb.

Gnomes have an inner sense with which they experience what is in the minerals and metals, these being receivers of what is above the earth. They also seem to be sensitive to influences of the moon. With full moon, they form a thick ‘skin’ to protect themselves against the moon light, with new moon they are almost transparent. They are always alert what happens around and to them.

They give spiritual support to lowly developed animals.

Kobolds

They are smaller than gnomes, and are much finer and playful, very friendly, They like to help, and even help with tasks in the house, but at the same time they remain cautious.

Giants

Giants can be really big, as they are often connected to mountains. They can also live in ancient forests. They are not clever, are very touchy and dangerous, although there are some exceptions. They like noise. They are afraid of magicians and certain smells.

Giants are very dense in ethereal substance, and thus they are easily seen by people with second sight.

Mountain Devas

Far more developed earth devas are the mountain devas, beings that permeates and work with a whole mountain or with mountain ranges. Here is what a mountain deva had to say to Dorothy Maclean: "Our consciousness is so deep in the Earth, so used to channeling through rock, that we are almost as divorced from our higher selves as are humans. We are deep down, firm and constantly overshadowing our environment, attached to it and paying heed to little else. We do not mind if you try to translate our consciousness in your words - what is one passing human in eternity? We steady and maintain. We are the great maintainers of the world, the strength of the earth itself continually translating forces up and down, the pores of the earth breathing, and I, one entity commanding here. There are many of us. We go on forever. I know man changes and alters the countryside. That is only at our feet and he has not altered us. We are of the Earth itself. We are before and after man." (1)

Element Water

Nymphs

Nymphs are connected to the element water, but at the same time can also be connected to a mountain or forest. Their action radius is very localized.

There also are nymphs that regulate the flow of water in the earth's crust. In general nymphs distribute the feminine qualities of water into the landscape. They can give a specific individuality to a water place. A well nymph can turn the waters of the well into a healing place. It is not uncommon for them to appear in the religious form of the goddess that people of that area worship. Hence the appearance of Maria at wells in Europe.

They do not have a clear consciousness as do gnomes. They dream constantly. They mostly dream of the stars, the sun, light and warmth.

They have a tendency to merge temporarily into a fish form, but will take on other metamorphoses just to avoid to possibility of turning into a fish form permanently. They do help the fishes and amphibians.

Nymphs bind and unbind matter. They take care of the chemistry of plants.

Nymphs can have a kind of morbid death wish.

There also male nymphs, or water-men, who embody the male aspect of water. They seem to be rather withdrawn.

Undines

Here is a description of undines by Geoffrey Hodson : "There are two different grades of water-spirits at this (water) fall. One is apparently connected with the whole ghyll, and was first seen traveling swiftly up the mountain on which the stream rises. It is definitely of the undine variety, but rather larger than those previously seen, though similar to tern in other characteristics.
The figure, which shines as if wet, is female, nude and without wings, the exquisite limbs gleam through the white auric flow, the arms are particularly long and beautiful, and she waves them gracefully in her flight. She is about four feet in height and her general coloring is silvery white, with gold stars round the head.
She moves up the fall by a series of darting motions of exceeding swiftness, disappears from view as if into the rock, reappears. and flashes down again. As I watch her rapid movements she appears suddenly to become languid; her form slowly dissipates and her consciousness sinks into the ground, as if to rest. At the particular place where she disappeared-a large rocky bluff covered with bracken and heather-I can still sense, I would almost say see, the undine, at a distance of six to ten feet below the surface of the ground.
She has reappeared, and obviously experiences considerable joy, taking great interest and delight in the large fall, over which she hovers in a fashion that suggests some emotion akin to brooding tenderness. She shows a certain natural seriousness; in her there is none of that careless inconsequence which marks so many of the lesser nature-spirits. In her mind there is a sense of responsibility for certain aspects and processes of evolution which are taking place here, connected chiefly with the water and the vegetation. Over the rock under which she retired there is a decided magnetic influence, due no doubt to her long-continued presence there, which has given the place a strongly defined aura and influence of its own.
There are some less evolved undines at the actual falls, where they appear to be permanently stationed. They too, can pass in and out of the rock at will. They differ from the one described chiefly in size; they are less than a foot high, and appear to be making vocal sounds. Their joy is more unrestrained and their whole bearing more irresponsible than hers. They are five or six in number. Their slim, graceful, nude bodies are supple in the extreme, and they constantly assume poses of great beauty as they float in the midst of the fall. or hover just in the edge of the spray. A characteristic attitude is one with the body upright and more or less stiff, limbs straight, arms close to the side, head thrown slightly back, eyes looking upward. In this pose they ride slowly upwards through the falls to the top, like a bubble rising through water; having reached the summit they flash free into the air, releasing the concentrated energy which they appear to have absorbed, making a brilliant display of color and light, radiating joy and delight in all directions. (6)

Nixies

Nixies enliven rivers, springs, lakes and marshes. They show themselves as beautiful maidens, sometimes with a fish tail. They are music lovers and excellent dancers, and they have the gift of prophecy. Although they can give certain gifts to human, one has to be cautious as they can be harmful, usually by drowning people.

Naiads

The Naiads presided over rivers, streams, brooks, springs, fountains, lakes, ponds, wells, and marshes.

Element Air

Elves or Sylphs

These live in the element air, and are like light in the atmosphere. Sensitive to the movement of the atmosphere, they have a sleepy consciousness.

Their task is to transfer light to the plants.

The stream of air caused by a flying bird creates a sound they can hear. They like birds flying through the air.

Sylphs are connected to movement in space, like modeling and directing the wind. Elves (or fairies) are more connected to the expansion of life in their area.

Fairies

The real fairy is related to the elves, but she is more interested in humans and animals, and has a strong magical persona. Fairies can act as protectors or guides for people involved in magic.

Storm Devas

Dora van Gelder: "Probably the most characteristic air fairy is the one that is associated with storms. They are small, some four or five feet high, but shapely and beautiful. They are well proportioned according to the human model, with faces that are weirdly narrow framed by streaming hair. Their principal coloring is like a silver birch, but with faint lights of pale blue and violet. They are generally some of these about, because they is usually some wind blowing, but their relation to wind is not as intimate as that of cloud fairy to cloud. They seldom come down to earth level and are seen mainly in great troops high up in the sky. When a strong wind blows, however, they descend to earth or ocean surface. They have intelligence of high order and are, in fact, close to the sylphs in nature. Perhaps there may be a group of sylphs especially attached to wind later described in connection with the hurricane. Sylphs, like all other fairies, work under the direction of angels. Their superiors are a special group of angels associated with storms, and when a great storm is about to break, they are rallied for it. Just as rain storms are high spots in the life of of cloud fairies, and other fairies have their special pleasures and events, so the wind storm is the great joy of these particular fairies. They sweep over the top of a forest in the wind, over the surface of the earth, and are to be seen normally only about great peaks in high mountains. They are superiors of the cloud fairies and direct them." (4)

Element Fire

Salamanders, or Fire Spirits

The salamanders collect warmth and transfer it into the flowers. They feel very connected to the world of butterflies and insects. They are very difficult to see.

The fire spirits are spirits of transformation (dying, decay and regeneration), they make the compost pile into fertile soil. The are the fire that burns the candle or the wood. They take life processes to maturity, and through the processes of decomposition and transformation they take them to the threshold of a new birth. For the nature spirits in between life and rebirth there is a period of regeneration in the blazing life force of fire.

They are also radiating light and have to do with enlightenment and with the world made visible through light. They can appear in light bodies, radiating brilliant light.

They also can be spirits of inspiration, mediators between the angelic world and the more physical levels of creation. In ancient times they were called the muses.

While the fire-spirits in the forest are small, in a volcano they are seven up to fourteen feet tall. They can appear in human form with a kind of devilish look on their face, although they are quite attractive. In a volcano are also great angels of fire.

There are also important fire spirits in the center of the earth, connected to the destiny of the planet.

Some More Nature Beings

Fauns

Fauns are nature spirits with half animal, half human appearance. They might follow humans around but are harmless.

Traditionally they are depicted as young men with the lower body of a goat and horns on their head. Fauns are tree spirits, in the sense that they help trees grow. They direct the growth of trees in certain useful directions. They have a relative autonomous intelligence with which they can watch the environment of the trees both below and above the ground.

Thus a faun offers his consciousness to help the tree grow harmoniously into its environment. In return the tree provides the faun the opportunity to gain experiences in matter. Through this reciprocal action the faun is tied to the tree for its entire lifetime.

Body Elemental

When talking about nature spirits we always look around in nature. But you have one right inside your body! It is call the 'body elemental' and is actually situated within your etheric body. The function of this body elemental is to first build the form of your body, through the process of conception and gestation, help it grow and mature. They stay with a person until the life expectancy of the individual terminates. The body elemental is a highly developed spirit being of the earth element.

The body elemental is responsible for the well-being of your body. It manipulates the energies from nature and from our higher bodies to make them suitable for the etheric, and therefore the physical body, in this way keeping the energy levels up for every cell and organ in the body. This helps your body to function properly in the physical realm in your everyday life so that you may fulfill a greater life purpose in the outer world. Therefore the body elemental is instrumental in aiding in any self-healing process. It knows the blueprint of your atomic/molecular structure right down to the DNA/RNA cellular level because the Body Elemental helped create your very physical body as a house for the soul. It knows exactly where the trauma and the memories have been stored and holds the roadmap to pinpoint the locations that contain the problems. It is able to retrieve the information and release the 'know-how' of how to best facilitate self healing or healing for others.

The body elemental can be contacted by meditation, or in a healing session, to help with the healing process and in keeping the body healthy. As with all elementals, or nature spirits, you have to approach your body elemental with respect. Do not expect it to do all the work, you have a big part to play in keeping yourself healthy by what you eat and drink, and by your life style.

Apparently, the body elemental sits in a place between the solar plexus and heart chakras, connecting the soul and body to the divine mind elemental which sits above.

Marko Pagonick (see end of page) describes the feeling of the body elemental as a warm, fur-like construction which supports the body from the ground upwards, solidly grounding the body. It must be this that made the ancients depict Pan with hairy legs. Then there is a connection of the body elemental along the spine up to the head.

Pan

From Greek mythology, Pan is "the Feeder of Flocks." God of herds, fertility and male sexuality. Pan has the horns and legs of a goat and plays a syrinx, a pipe with seven reeds. An ancient god, he has no moral or social aspect whatsoever, and is simply the embodiment of pure, basic instinct. Some said that Pan taught Apollo the art of prophecy. Pan especially loves mountains and wild country. Pan has a dark aspect as well, causing men and animals to go suddenly mad with terror in distant, lonely places. His name is therefore the root word of "panic."

In our modern days, spiritually gifted people have had experiences with Pan, mostly in his traditional form. From this it is clearly that Pan is a multi-level being. Pan can give you a full experience of the world of nature spirits and its connection to the divine.

Werewolves

These are spirits that are very aggressive and dangerous, and have a lot of power.

Dragons

Dragons are nature spirits of great strength and power which they can transfer to humans, including psychic powers. They also have the ability to cure all kinds of diseases. But there is a pitfall: they give a lust for power and sexual passions.

Dragons can be from the four elements. A gold dragon (fire) gives wealth and gold. A black dragon (earth) causes wars and is often associated with the military. A white dragon (water) attracts money, but in a lesser degree; it also influences economic affairs. A blue dragon (air) transport souls with preordained mission from heaven to earth.

There are many more kinds of dragons.

Dragons have been seen floating very high above any cloud level, in all kinds of vivid colors. Their intelligence seems to be low. These dragons never descend into the lower atmosphere. In nature they are mainly used as a reservoir from which the angels and fairies draw energy

House Spirit

Each structure built and occupied by people has a spirit that develops according to the energies of that structure and the people living in it. It is a primitive form of consciousness that has no form nor will it become visible. When new people move into the house, their new habits and rearrangement of the different parts of the house can cause stress on the house spirit. Therefore it is good to immediately tune into the house spirit, make some offerings, and communicate what you plan to do with the house and the rooms. Otherwise the displeased spirit could cause trouble for the new occupants.

Astrological or Birth Fairies

With every birth there are at least one or more birth fairies present at the crib of the newly born. They give the baby one or more gifts or talents. These gifts or talents are actually enforcements of a certain pattern already inscribed in the astrological blueprint of the baby. Such a gift can be very decisive, because it will send the person on a certain path rather than an other. For example, the position of the planet Mars can make a person choose for the profession of surgeon but also of a soldier. The Faries can reinforce, for example, the energies that will make that person choose for surgeon.

Do you know why it is a custom to give candies around at the birth of a newborn? It is a continuation of an old custom to bring offerings to the birth faries and thus ask for a positive future for the child. Although the birth faries are rarely visible, as they are not that interested in showing themselves to mortals, you don't want to miss out on their good energies. So make sure you bring those offerings into the room as soon as possible!

Guardian Spirit

This is an artificially created elemental spirit that is programmed to guard a certain territory or object. It needs to be continuously charged by the person or group who created it.

Djinn

A djinn is a nature spirit that is being controlled by a human for the purpose of carrying out certain works. The human has to be in total control of the djinn, otherwise the djinn might take control over the human, or play tricks, like making objects disappear and appear, or wander around.

Sound and Dance Spirits
Sound and dance spirits are of the same nature as elves, kobolds, aerial spirits but more developed and more subtle. They attach a lot of importance to higher aesthetics. They react positively to beautiful sounds and movements of people, and thus end out strong vibrations that influence the fate of man in a positive way. But those who create disharmonious sounds and jerky movements disturb their own aura, by their actions they offend the sound and dance spirits. At the same time they become open to the energies of bad spirits.

I have made a special CD with the sounds of the Tibetan Singing Bowls. When I spoke to the Hungarian shaman Joska Soos, he confirmed my feeling that the singing bowls are connected to sound beings. Playing these bowls brings these sound beings into the room where they exert their positive influence on the people present and the environment. For more information go to Soul Sounds!

Group Elementals

This is an elemental being that came into existence when a group of people was formed. Its formation and continuous existence depends strongly on the emotions in the group. The group elemental also influences the members of the group, making a close connection between all the members. A new member of the group will be absorbed if his emotions or mental energy correspond with the group elemental, or he will be rejected.

Any group you can imagine, has a group elemental, for example, a religious group, professional group, activist groups, also a town or a country, city or tribe has a group elemental, and so on.

The Tuatha De Danann, or Sidhe

The Thuata Da Danann is a race of beings, once primarily known in Ireland. It is said that long ago the Sidhe were a people very much like ourselves, living a life similar to humans. Their origin is unknown, but they are considered to be a non-human race of intelligent beings with great knowledge, and not quite physical, although many people have seen them. The size of the lower class Sidhe is a little smaller than the size of humans, those of the higher classes are taller. Both classes often have blond or golden hair.

The Sidhe reigned over Ireland until they were conquered by human invaders. They fled to the depths of the earth, into caves and other underground places. Their dwelling places are also often under lakes. They inhabit beautiful palaces, enjoying feasts, lovemaking, and music. They are not a working class but rather military-aristocratic. Their realm is now called Tir-na-nog, one of the many Otherworlds. Their world is generally described as a place of harmony and beauty.

The race of the Sidhe is not confined solely to Ireland. As the Irish psychics themselves say, they also inhabit other countries around the world. They move from one place to another and take great interest in man. They travel in magical ships. During the nights they are often seen traveling in spheres of light.

The Sidhe are often described as tall, beautiful beings who have eternal youth. But when they appear to humans they can take any shape they want.

Between the Sidhe and humans there has always been an exchange. They can appear in our world and take fine-looking young men and women in order to marry them. Living in their realm these mortals were bestowed with a fairy immortality. When returning to our world, they are confronted with the passing of a lot of time in the physical world. Somehow time is experienced differently in the Sidhe world. Another aspect is that the person has remained young while his earthly relatives have grown old or died.

Children from unions between Sidhe and humans turned out noble and heroic. Some of the greatest figures of antiquity are declared to have been such children.

Sometimes people go off with the Sidhe in a kind of trance or dream state, which can last days or even months. But mortals were not always forcibly taken. They could be invited, or go on their own account, for example for the love of a fairy woman, or to perform some mission. They could live forever in the Sidhe world if they wished. When entering the world of Sidhe, one undergoes a kind of bodily transformation that changes one's physical nature into the nature of the Sidhe. Some people say that the Sidhe themselves transmute the physical body of humans into a body like their own. People who have been in the realm of the Sidhe have had difficulty in getting accustomed again to their ordinary lives. Most of them have undergone some inner changes and have begun to see life from a different angle.

That Sidhe are not physical is proved by many witnesses who have seen the Sidhe going through stone walls, or into a hill side.

The Sidhe have magical powers by which they can cast spells upon people. They can put a state of akinesis (the inability to move) on a person who enters their territory, or on someone who is watching them. The Sidhe also have to power to look into the future with great accuracy.

The Sidhe have a reputation for teasing people, making jokes and disguising themselves.

An important aspect of the Sidhe is that they are amoral. They do not care about the effects of their teasings. Being themselves immortal (in the sense of having a very long life) and at the same time amoral, they do not seem to be bothered when their interference with humans turn out negative or deadly for the human.

The Sidhe seem to have a close relationship with nature and especially the atmospheric phenomena. It is also said that some of them direct the magnetic currents of the Earth.

Music is one of their favorite pastimes, and at times they have been seen traveling through the air, playing music and singing. My own grandmother, in her young days, has seen light spheres traveling through the countryside accompanied by music. The country people in her area didn't quite know what to think of it.

UFOS

I thought it might be good to give you here an explanation Seizan Fukami (a well known Japanese psychic with great insights in the spiritual world and their inhabitants) gives about UFOs. He is not happy about the increased interest in UFOs. From his personal experience with UFOs, he found that most of them are manifestations in different forms of gangster spirit bands. Those are spirits, who banded together, were not too bad to go the hells and not good enough to go to the normal spirit worlds. They remained somewhere in between. They are half-spirit and half-material. When they make themselves visible in the material world they have the ability to delude human beings. One of the forms they take is the UFO. (Some of the UFOs are vehicles of highly developed righteous spirits.) "Nothing gives these rowdies more pleasure than to see people running around overreacting to their presence shouting, 'It’s a UFO!'." So these gangster bands just love to make themselves visible to people or carry someone off for a while.

Besides manifesting as UFOs they also appear in poltergeist phenomena. They also appear in many other forms.

Fukami speaks from personal experience: "…during these encounters I also was subjected to an indescribable electric-like shock that I guess you would have to classify as a kind of electromagnetic wave. It felt just like a shock from an electric range. Such electromagnetic waves feel quite like the spiritual waves emitted by the divine and spirit worlds, except that they are rougher and more often than not spiritually negative. But people who have never experienced true exalted spiritual waves before are likely to take them for emanations from the gods. They are far from that, however."

"I hasten to say that the UFO's sent from the righteous spirit world are incredibly beautiful. The spiritual waves they give off are rough like electrical energy, but they also emit a very refined kind of light. However they do not cause any sort of vague fear in the human soul, nor do they delude and disorient people. The reason is that they operate in the cause of love and righteousness."

The Higher Developed Devas

Angel-Devas

These beings, usually called angels, archangels and so on, are creative intelligences building our world. They know how to manipulate ethereal substances into ever more crystallized forms of which the end result is physical matter. They build vehicles for every life form.

They do not have free will, but are very powerful in what they do. Their form changes as they move around, and changes over time. They live in a state of immediate knowledge and are a source of happiness and exaltation. They live fully in the moment, in full concentration and in unity with the flowing energy of the field they are working in.

They can create sounds in the ethereal worlds that have a positive effect on humans and their environment. They work with sounds, mantras, and movements to create energy patterns.

There are devas which encompass more abstract ideas or concepts like power, healing, music, peace, education.

The following, The Deva of Stone, is an example of a cosmic deva at work, a deva where you would least expect it. (from To Hear the Angels Sing, by Dorothy Maclean)

The Deva of Stone

Nature is full of paradox, in that as you seek contact with what you consider a lower form of life, you in fact contact a more universal being. The mind of man codifies and formulates, which is within its right and purpose, but forgets that all is one, that God is in all, and that basic substance, seemingly most void of sensitive consciousness, is held in its state of existence by its opposite, a vast consciousness, too vast for you to do more than sense its fringes and know that it extends beyond your present imagination. You realize too that dense matter is influenced in its make-up by stellar energies.

Classification of the Angels

Most people with the second sight have focus on the elemental beings, only a few also have contact with the angelic realm. They have described angels of sound, color, healing and so on, angels associated with the Christ energy and creative forces, but for a basic classification of the higher developed beings we have to turn to the old, but still valid classification in the Jewish/Christian tradition. So, here we go:

Besides all the beings and forces we have seen thus far, there are even more, greater beings that work on the fundaments of the cosmos. Here is an overview of the traditional hierarchy above the Archangels. The first name is from the Catholic tradition, the second name, between brackets, is from the Jewish tradition.

The Seraphim (Haioth ha Qodesh) distribute the universal force that allows mankind to fixate within themselves the divine unity. They determine the four supreme cardinal points, from which comes those of space. From these beings come the four elements, and all other group of four that determine existence. They are without any form.

The Cherubim (Ophanim or Galgalim) regulate and equilibrate the primordial chaos. They provide us the forms by which we are able to visualize the divine things. Their vibrations are in form of light as well as sounds. Their function is to maintain manifestation in movement.

The Thrones (Arailim) allow our spirit to fixate the images formed by the Cherubim. They maintain the primordial ether in the visible form in the subtle substances. They regulate and stabilize the power of the divine to give it form. They reside in the area of the cosmos where material form begins to take shape.

The Dominions (Hhashmalim) are like a reservoir of energy that animates nature. They give to men the necessary force to conquer the inner enemy and to achieve the ends that are assigned to them. Dominions are Angels of Leadership. They regulate the duties of the angels, making known the commands of God.

The Powers (Seraphin) have to do with divine sanctity and purification. Powers are Warrior Angels against evil defending the cosmos and humans. They are known as potentates. They fight against evil spirits who attempt to wreak chaos through human beings.

The Virtues (Malakim) work primordially on the mineral kingdom, the environment in which the beings of creation evolve. They produce the mineral realm, the metal, the gems and are the soul of all mineral medicine. Virtues are known as the Spirits of Motion and control the elements. They are sometimes referred to as "the shining ones." They govern all nature.

The Principalities (Tarshishim) give us the submission of all things, they embrace of all forces.

The Archangels (Beni-Elohim) rule over the animal kingdom and give man domination over it.

The Angels (Keroubim) are the guardians of the threshold, the defenders of the holiness of God against fallen man who would otherwise take the Tree of life. They deliver the prayers to God and God's answers and other messages to humans. Angels have the capacity to access any and all other Angels at any time. They are the most caring and to assist those who ask for help.

Evil Devas

Good devas keep themselves to the realm they are working in. Evil devas will approach animals and humans with their bad intentions. It is said that strong plant poisons are caused by bad elves, and gnomes and nymphs can become parasitic.

Benevolent and Malevolent Beings

More evolved does not automatically mean that they are benevolent to humans. Superior spirits, however, have made a vow that they will never introduce themselves with a personal name as a means to make people believe in them. They decline any personal recognition. Their messages are always refined and, if high in vibrancy, short with a profound meaning, and they are not compulsive. True spiritual beings of high development have a full aura. They are filled with a particular quality of white clear light.

If you want to know with what kind of spirit you are dealing with, ask to show them their inner, divine light. True spiritual beings will respond, while spirits with bad intentions will not. Or ask them their name, a good spirit will not give one.

Malevolent spirits interfere with life on the physical level, and cause trouble when they give psychic powers to people. They often give prophecies of disasters. They have no sense of the beautiful or the artistic. They cannot fake beauty or artistry, or sincerity, as all this comes from the heart, and from the divine. They might have a great amount of intelligence, but it is not rooted in truth. They like to talk about and fake the truth, wisdom, righteousness and love, but it is all distorted.

Malevolent spirits feed on fear. To avoid them learn to keep your fear under control, or learn to eliminate it. The opposite of fear is trust, trust in the divine. Don’t pay attention to them. Don’t hate them either, or be angry. They are also children of the divine, who went the wrong path. Respect them for who they are, and make a clear choice not to get involved with them. Know you are rooted in the divine, and bring out that divine light, which we all have in ourselves
