This is probably the best way for finer beings throughout the cosmos to get life-changing, world-changing information into our modern world—by delivering it directly into our computers as carefully drafted letters and reports.

It’s not easy, but when good spirits can manipulate our computers, they can get their positive messages to us as “pure-and-unfiltered” as possible. Unlike mediumship (channeling), which always filters the information to a greater or lesser degree (as Yang Fudse explains in one of the spirit messages below).

Nearly all of these contacts were received by my INIT colleague Maggy Fischbach in Luxembourg, for whom an unprecedented ITC contact bridge opened in the 1980s and lasted through the 1990s.

There’s a huge amount of information in these spirit reports. I shortened it all by summarizing them. I also highlighted some of the key points (for skimming) and organized them into six groupings:

• Dying on Earth then Living in Paradise
• Our Most Ancient History (and End Times)
• The Seven Finer Beings
• Nature of the Cosmos
• Understanding (and Authenticating) ITC
• Living on Earth (from Spirits’ Point of View)

Links to the complete original messages can be found at the end of each entry below.

Putting It All into Perspective

But before digging into the contacts, this diagram helps to put all of the uplifting and mind-boggling information in these spirt reports into perspective.

Life-energy from the source at the center of everything creates and nourishes the entire cosmos with vitality, love, awe, knowledge, sincerity, trust, generosity, and other refined motivations. It can all be divided into 7 random or arbitrary levels between the Earth and the source.

Earth’s rowdy nature deflects some of the pure life-energy, creating a duality and casting an invisible shadow around the planet where corruption, hate, fear, ignorance, deception, suspicion, and envy seek refuge.

Most people arrive in a bright, earth-like paradise world at level 3 after a lifetime on Earth (level 1), according to these ITC computer contacts received in the 1990s. Some people awaken in various darker environs extending into Earth’s spiritual “shadow” (levels -1 through -7), and a rare few ascend to finer realms of love and wisdom beyond human description—levels 4 and above. Most of our contacts were about that paradise world at level 3, where people still look and behave much as we do on Earth (level 1), but in a more refined setting with polished dispositions.

To make our transition from level 1 to level 3, we might…

• Simply awaken in paradise (Richard Francis Burton and Jules Verne), or
• Step through a doorway (Jemp Fischbach), or
• Pass through a tunnel or vortex (Albert Fischbach and Edith Koerner), or
• Be rescued when lost (Arthur Moos). 

Once we arrive at level 3, we do what everyone else does there: We love life!… and a lot more.

The question arises, why aren’t efforts made to “rescue” everyone who gets stuck in the shadow after a lifetime? As a rule, the spirit leaves the body and is drawn to a realm that resonates with its attitudes and disposition, and ascension happens only when the spirit is ready.

Several people below describe their cross-over as “dream-like,” suggesting that while we dream at night our mind is often experiencing various (spirit) dimensions or realities.

Dying on Earth then Living in Paradise

These are some of the best contacts we received that describe the paradise world (Eden or Marduk) at level 3, and how people from Earth arrive there after a lifetime.

When Finer Beings Come to Take Us Home

“Children of Earth, people of Terra! When we come to take you home at the end of your earthly lives”, we often find you in a last-minute scramble to get everything in order. Relax, people! We come not to judge you after just an hour of testing but merely to greet you and to ease your suffering. You’ve been taught to impersonate us (“angels”), but don’t overdo it. You’re only human, and we understand your desperation, skepticism, doubt, and anger. You’re on a long journey, and when we bring you home, you’ll feel like a child sitting safely on its smiling mother’s lap. “Lighten your hearts and take off your masks in front of each other, and you’ll be prepared on the day we take you home.” —Ishkumar, one of The Seven (9601 p1)

Edith Koerner Awakens on a Tropic Isle

Edith Koerner Schoenheid died in the spring of 1995. She was the wife of German pharmacist Ludwig Schoenheid, who joined INIT in 1996.

I, Mootai, live on a twilight island (at or near level 2, presumably) near a lagoon very similar to the one I remember from long, long ago, with the coconut palms and the pourau trees gleaming silver in the moonlight. One recent day the tunnel opened before me, emitting colors of cobalt blue, aquamarine, and turquoise. One of the light beings, whom we call People of the Rainbow, came out carrying a woman who was old and gray and pale and sleeping the dead sleep, which frightened me a bit at first. He told me her name was Edith Koerner, she’d suffered much pain and sorrow, and she would be need to rest and recuperate with our people. I carried the woman, light and delicate, to our healing hut and laid her on a bed of palm leaves. We nurtured Edith back to health, youth, and vitality, and she was fascinated with our customs, especially our getting-in-touch ceremony in which we burn herbs that give off a vapor through which we can see into your world. We introduced her to Maupai (explorer or adventurer) Hartmann, who also has white skin and visits us often. He felt a connection to Edith, and the two became like brother and sister. Eventually Edith grew restless, and the two boarded Maupai Hartmann’s boat with sail that was driven by sun wind, and under the stars they embarked for the station they call Timestream (at level 3), where Edith has family members. The whole tribe stood along the shores to say goodbye to the beautiful young girl who had come to us old and ill. —Mootai, island girl formerly of Earth (9601 p12)

Olof Palme Awakens Among Vikings on His Way to Summerland

Swedish prime minister Olof Palme was assassinated in 1986 while coming out of movie theater with his wife Lisbet. A “double-tap to the head,” as they say nonchalantly in crime novels and movies, where we become blasé to violence and predatory behavior… which can keep our spirit stuck at a dense, earthy vibration.

My name is Skjoldung and I am a Dane. I remember well, 10 years ago today, when I found this Swedish man, Olof Palme. Every year on this day he comes back to us when we celebrate a feast in our village. When we sit around the fire in the evening and the outdoor tables are removed after the meal, the women bring the drinking horns and urge me to tell them the story. Because I am a skald (Viking poet) and play the harp, I give in. Our village Hleidhra is nearer to the snow-land (level 2?) than the Summerland (level 4), which I have often traveled to, in the more than 1,200 years that I have been here. Some people from our village have gone there too, but many who were brave warriors on earth have looked for it but have not found it. This morning I met a group of Swedes who told me the oracle has predicted something special for our village. I have met many here during my travels who claim to see events before they happen. I have always been a simple man and these things do not interest me.  As I stood on a hill, I heard a rustle nearby. I jumped there quickly and saw a man in the underbrush. A little blood was dripping from two head wounds, then it stopped as always happens with our wounds; they heal very quickly here. His eyes were staring and his mouth was open. The hair stuck to his head. He wore a strange piece of clothing like they wear in Summerland. He spoke, croaking at first with effort, then becoming better and clearer. ‘What is this here? Certainly not a hospital, and I am not dead either.’ He spoke a Swedish that sounded strange to me and I could hardly understand him. I calmed him down, speaking to him in the Language of the River. ‘You are among friends. Feel welcome. I, Skjoldung, vouch for your safety.’ He also spoke the Language of the River now and said, ‘Where is Lisbeth? Where is Stockholm?’ I could not answer that. He was weak. I escorted him to our village, where he slept for long weeks and when he left us he was a young man, and he told me, ‘I thank you, friend Skjoldung. You and your people have taught me much. I think I am ready to look for the Summerland (level 4), even though I was a politician. Burton, I imagine a ‘politician’ in the country he came from must be a great prince, for he was a good man and we respect him highly…. —Skjoldung, as transcribed by Richard Francis Burton (9602 p4)

Richard Francis Burton Awakens in an Arabian Paradise

Sir Richard Francis Burton was a British explorer well-known for translating Arabian Nights into English. Since his death in 1890 he’s become a prominent figure at level 3, continuing his explorations into diverse afterlife communities, where he’s made many friends. He and Timestream director Swejen Salter became kindred spirits shortly after Swejen died and arrived there a century later (1987), and they share a beautiful home. She’s too busy at Timestream to travel with him on his adventures, but she understands and supports him. Boys will be boys. 🙂

“Allah be with you, Burton. It is nice to see you once again in Yatrib Quastar. We have known each other for over a hundred years. Each time we meet, memory bridges time and I remember the day I first met you. I went to the bazaar early in the morning before the heat of the suns forced people back into their homes.” We two strangers narrowly escaped being run over by a group of horsemen led by a trumpeter as we ducked into a doorway. You were tall, very tanned, and looked like one of our people, dressed in our customary clothing. ‘Peace be with you, stranger,’ I said. ‘Peace be with you,’ you replied, ‘your city is beautiful, my friend. I have only been here a short time and already noticed great comfort and happy hearts within your walls.’ You told me your name was Burton, and you’d awakened a few days ago in a shady palm-and-fruit garden near a bubbling spring in the middle of the city. A young goat was licking you, and when you woke up your outer appearance and clothes were exactly like they are now. You thought you were crazy, or dreaming. You’d been lying in bed when a terrible pain went through you, then suddenly you woke up in that garden and now felt better than you had for decades. But you rubbed your cheek and added, ‘My beard is gone. I haven’t shaved for three days, but my face is as smooth as a baby’s ass!’ I smiled and responded, ‘God knows, many of us miss this adornment of our face but we get used to it’….. —Abdallah Ibn Bekr, transcribed by Richard Francis Burton (9701 p12, terra09, humanStory09)

Jules Verne Awakens in a Sumptuous Palace

Jules Verne was a famous French author of futuristic novels. ITC researcher Maggy Fischbach was preparing a speech for a conference in Paris when she received this contact from Jules Verne.

“It is not without emotion that I am writing these few lines, destined, from what I have just been told, to be presented at the time of a conference in my homeland—France—as well as in Paris where I was, if my memories serve me right, for the final time in the winter of 1896-97, nearly one hundred years ago, according to your calculation of time. Permit me first to present myself. My name is Jules Verne, and I suppose it is not unknown to you, since it already had a certain golden glow at the time I was living. Indeed, and as strange as this might seem to you, I am good and dead, and yet as alive as you are, if not moreso.” It was a century ago when I awakened in a sumptuous palace bringing to mind the splendid residences of the rajahs, I was surrounded by exquisite young women molded in orange and blue silk garments which contrasted with their tanned skin, who invited me to sit on the soft pillows and inquired as to my desires and wishes. “They spoke to me in a language that up until then I had never heard but, strangely, I understood immediately—and I was even able to answer them in the same idiom. It was only later that I was informed that it was the ‘Language of the River’ that each one acquires as soon as one arrives here. For a long time I thought I was dreaming….” —Jules Verne (9702 p1, itc00, terra09, humanStory07)

Rescue of Soldier Arthur Moos 50 Years After His Death

A soldier dies a brutal death, gets stuck in a dark void, then gets rescued and brought to paradise through a Timestream process called “light modulation.” His surviving wife Lucie had been in touch with ITC researcher Maggy Fischbach of Luxembourg, which inspired the rescue.

“I still wake up at night soaked in sweat and become aware of the needlessness of my death. I still see the four of us in the carriage of the farmer who gave us a ride from Kotorz (or Kachen as it was called then). We were heading for Oppeln. The birch trees to the right of the road not far from Ehrenfeld were dressed in their first green leaves. It was April 1945 and it was a mild spring day. I saw in front of me the piercing, all-consuming yellow-red flash that lifted us into the air like a fist of steel. As we went higher and higher, I felt like a rabbit that someone grabbed by the neck and shook up violently, only to toss down at breakneck speed to smash on the ground of this bloody, tortured and war-torn Earth. Everything around me went deep black.” Only my spirit floated through a flickering, silent darkness. I remained in this state a very long time, though I learned meanwhile that time is nonexistent here. I remember thinking that this must be life after death. This was the definite, final state in which our earthly body would remain after physical death. Then all at once, I don’t know how many earth years had passed, I heard a distant wonderful music. A violet iridescent light, far off, rotated like a spiral. I moved toward the Light…. I floated into the light and saw before me, almost as through a somewhat distorted film, a beautiful valley with lush vegetation. Between the mountain slopes flowed a silvery river. I cried like a child for the joy of seeing such beauty once more. Then I lost consciousness. I awoke in a meadow looking up at the face of a friendly young man in his twenties. He took my hand with the words, ‘Greetings Arthur, we were waiting for you. I am Pascal Turmes.’ This is how I arrived here in Eden with Group Timestream almost 50 years after my bodily death. I learned that a young woman here, a scientist by the name of Swejen Salter, had located me in the post-mortal space vacuum. She and her group transferred me by means of ‘light modulation,’ the opposite of ‘down modulation.’ I’ve been here for about 14 days and have already found so many friends, that it seems like I’ve been here forever. —Arthur Moos (9703 p4)

Maggy’s Uncle Jemp Steps into Paradise with His Mother

Albert, it was a shock for me when I arrived here, having no interest whatsoever in the afterlife, even when I was sick and dying. When that hole opened up on the wall next to my bed and grew to the size of a doorway of silvery light, I’ve gotta’ admit I was a little scared. Then Mother stepped through, looking young and more beautiful than I remember. Albert, she smiled at me, took me by the hand and said: ‘Come Jemp, this is enough here. You should come home now.’ We went through the opening and suddenly stood in a meadow. The weather was pleasantly warm. In the distance, huge mountains stretched right into the clouds. I thought I was in Switzerland, but there were several suns in the sky. When I turned around, my room and everything else was gone. I thought I must be dreaming. I was led to a pristine replica of our old house on Rue Mohrfels, where I sank into the sofa and took a long sleep. I woke up six weeks later, and when I went to wash and shave, I looked in the mirror and saw a young man with clean, healthy skin and no facial hair. I have settled in so well here that what was important before has become like emotional baggage I can do without. —Jemp Fischbach (9701 p7)

Maggy’s Father, Albert Fischbach, Guided Home by Bwele M’Banga

There’s an interesting sidelight to this story that’s been removed from this synopsis. Albert and other members of the Fischbach family sometimes referred jokingly to his brother Jemp, with his coal-colored hair, as “the black one.” So when Albert was greeted on his deathbed by our African spirit friend Bwele M’Banga (whom Albert referred to as “the black one”), there was some confusion. I believe that was part of the plan, as Timestream and The Seven often stressed the importance of integration and oneness. This report was written by Bwele M’Banga.

The walls of the vortex were very thin. They pulsed in innumerable colors and reflected the two of us like a mirror. That morning Captain Burton had informed me that the day had come to go and take Albert home. I had Maggy’s grandmother by the hand—‘Mother Anna’ as she was affectionately known—while I groped my way slowly. Far ahead of us we saw the end of the tunnel, and we hoped that this corridor would be the right one because two times already we had come out at the incorrect locations. The first time it was easy to see that it was not Earth 1933.* The second time we nearly stepped out of the tunnel, but suddenly I realized that the younger of the two women had blond hair, and that couldn’t be Maggy sitting there with her mom Kennie. On the third attempt we succeeded. The old fellow was lying in the bed, breathing with great difficulty. When he saw us, he lifted his hand and pointed at us, but the women didn’t notice us. Finally, the struggle ended. Anna now wept a bit when she saw her youngest son lying there, dead, but immediately she caught herself when his astral body rose and he came toward us. Albert approached Mother Anna, and the two embraced in deep affection. I urged them to reenter the vortex, and they followed me without uttering a word. A few minutes later we came back to a place on Marduk very near to the location where we had left that very morning. When we got out of the vortex Albert was wearing a dark blue suit with white shirt and tie. I noticed that he kept looking at his feet. He wore big woolen socks with slippers. Suddenly the slippers turned into a pair of comfortable black leather shoes. He looked back and around him again and again, absorbing into his senses the sights and impressions of the beautiful hills and the landscape. At the house of sleep I left the two alone. Mother Anna would take her son to his room, which would be an exact replica of his own sleeping room in Alzingen where he lived, and there he would regenerate and grow young again. I was told recently that Albert Fischbach awoke from the dead sleep a few days ago. He was introduced to Technician, one of the People of the Rainbow. Albert spoke to Technician in awe and addressed him as ‘Father Antoine.’ —(Bwele Mbanga, guide for Timestream (9901 p4)

*At crucial points in history, The Seven told us, Earth splits into two parallel worlds that evolve in different directions, the year 1933 being one of those points, apparently because of all the international tensions—the Japanese impulse to take land from China, the Muslim impulse to take the northwest corner of India (later to become Pakistan), and political turmoil in Europe leading to the second world war, with Hitler becoming Reich Chancellor in Germany, violently banning protests, and introducing Lebensraum, the German impulse to take land throughout Europe…. We’re currently living in what our spirit friends regard as “Earth 1933.” (More about parallel worlds in a moment.)

Adapting to Paradise

The love between Maggy Fischbach and her dad, Albert, provided fertile ground for some prolific and insightful ITC contacts. For example, when Albert is introduced to the finer being Technician, Technician presents himself as “Pere Antoine,” a spiritual leader whom Albert had met as a child and revered highly. Technician himself had never incarnated into a physical lifetime (unlike some of the other Seven) but he was able to show himself in a form meaningful to Albert.

Also, when Albert Fischbach visits various buildings around the Timestream campus, I believe it makes sense to think of them more as “hyperlink” locations rather than geographic locations. The building that houses the akashic records and the building filled with labs, for example, aren’t solid structures at fixed locations in the spirit world. They’re more like hyperlinks that we use on our computers to “visit” an online store and make a purchase. Much of their reality is what we would call “virtual reality,” even if it’s as solid and real to them as our world is to us.

Dear Kennie, Maggy, and Jules, I’ve been here more than a month, and this is the second time I’m trying to contact you this way. I’m sitting in my beautiful room, at my desk, and I’m typing on my Underwood typewriter. Sometimes it happens that I haven’t even finished a sentence in my head, and already it’s typed onto the paper before me. That’s something you have to get used to. But there are many things like that here. I have two dozen suits in my closet. Last Sunday I wanted to wear a light green suit. I closed the closet door and took a red tie. There are at least a hundred ties here, each more beautiful than the next. When I reopened the closet, there was a green suit there, just as I’d envisioned. I don’t know how that happened, and I didn’t see anyone hang it there. —Albert Fischbach (9901 pp7)

On Tuesday I was busy around the house when Swejen Salter visited and introduced herself. She took me to Timestream to meet everyone. They all knew our Maggy! Then Swejen surprised me, ‘Come outside, Albert, they’re standing by your car.’ It was a red-orange Pontiac Firebird with white leather interior, something I could only dream about back on Earth! As we were driving around Timestream station, I noticed that when I made a turn I was on the lawn. I looked out and realized that the car was floating over the ground. It made no noise, emitted no smoke, and kicked up no dust. Soon we arrived at a building that was about as high as Luxembourg’s Conference Centre but twice as big, and the car lowered slowly to the ground. I entered with Swejen through a big glass door, and she introduced me to a lot more young people hurrying around with strange objects in their hands. We entered a room they call the Room of Records (the ‘akasha’ apparently) that was lit by floodlights—or reverse floodlights, since the beams got narrower from the source instead of wider. The room was filled with documents, papers, and books, but there were also many apparatuses and pieces of technical equipment. Some of them were similar to your PC at home, Maggy, but these were much bigger. Thousands of little lights were flashing. A man emerged from a corner into the light. It was Father Antoine! And when I saw him I was feeling like a little boy again when I knew him myself. He hadn’t changed at all. He said, ‘In this room is recorded every life on Earth and on other planets and worlds that has been lived or is being lived at the moment. Every life has lessons that must be learned.’ He showed me a crystal oval where I could see my most important past lifetime. I was a guy named Caspar Lindfeldt wearing a big fur coat with a heavy gold chain around my neck, standing near a high desk with a pen. I was entering figures in a big book. Then I saw myself driving a carriage through a city of big houses. I was getting lost in the memories and felt a bit ill, not knowing who I really was at that point, so Father Antoine said, ‘Come back, Albert. Only your spirit is real and unchangeable. Your physical body belonged to your fifth body, which you left when you came here, but this is enough for today. Your new friends will explain more. Go in peace now.’ —Albert Fischbach (9901 p8)

Living Conditions in the Level 3 Paradise

These two contacts provide some of the best possible descriptions of that paradise world at level 3 where most people awaken after a lifetime.

“While the third spirit plane (mid-astral) is a product of the human mind, it is as much a reality as is planet Earth. People whose ideas and beliefs agree with each other come together here in groups and form one unity. This unity is the stepping stone to the fourth dimension. After crossing into the fourth (higher astral) dimension, also called The Summerland, the human being is relieved of the laws of reincarnation. To establish this contact with you we have to get close to your world (the first dimension, or level 1) and adapt ourselves as much as possible. In the process we come to resonate with many of your thoughts and attitudes. At the same time, the members of Timestream are already approaching the border lines of higher consciousness at the fourth level. Sometimes we feel pulled into the beauty of the fourth level, and it’s only the thought of our ITC responsibilities with Earth that tear us away, so we can return to the ITC station on the third level. Our experiences and knowledge from the fourth level might be useful to you. We live along the banks of the River of Eternity along with those who were once living on Earth. There are animals here. Vegetation varies from algae to mammoth trees. Some people or animals wake up here already reborn into bodies at the prime of life. Others come to us as old people and turn young again after the regenerating sleep. Why there are such differences, we do not know. At the end of the growth or rejuvenation process most newcomers will be 25-30 years old. Animals also will be at an age of vitality and well-being, since ethical factors are not involved here. Damaged tissue or broken bones regenerate just like wounds heal in your world but much more perfect. Lost limbs will regrow. The blind will see again, and so on. The color of your hair and skin cannot be changed and will be the same as it was during your Earth life. Here in the river world, beings arrive from many worlds. Gnomes and giants live together with formless beings and the former human inhabitants of planet Earth. Doubles who were joined but lived on parallel worlds do not live together at the same area of the river.” —Swejen Salter (from Maggy Fischbach’s book Breakthroughs in Technical Spirit Communication)

“Along the River are comfortably furnished houses. About 60 billion humanoids live here. Sexuality is an option for compatible couples wishing it. Residents can eat and drink synthesized (created from thought) food. There are animal species unknown on Earth, including brightly colored birds and butterflies. The temperature is very mild. The River is located on a planet called Marduk (Eden) with three suns, so it is never completely dark. It orbits one sun and receives light from two other nearby stars. (The 3 suns are apparently light beings from level 7 who sustain the Eden world with their life-energy or “light” that is felt as “sun wind” at level 3.) A single, large river flows 100 million kilometers across the entire planet, the deepest spot in the river being 17,000 meters, the widest spot 3,700 meters. The planet and its Riverine communities were all created by human minds, yet is as much a reality for its spiritual residents as your Earth is to you. Vegetation ranges from microscopic algae to giant trees. Many buildings are made of wood. People arrive here with the same psychological and emotional nature they had when they died, although shortcomings and imbalances can be overcome through rapid learning. Children arriving on the astral planes are nurtured by loved ones who already live there. The children grow and develop to age 25-30. Almost everyone arrives here with false hopes and expectations, some because of lack of spiritual understanding, others because of their religious teachers who had a very incomplete view of this world. Many here led a good life on Earth but were not perfect. People who occasionally lie are not bad as long as they do not hurt anyone else with their deception. People who are unjust out of ignorance, or because they act in haste, are not bad people. There are many here who never sent a person from their door because he was lower on the social ladder, had different political views or another religion. Some of them ask themselves, ‘Why am I sharing this planet with cheats, adulterers, liars, thieves, and those who indulged in excesses and were disloyal?!’ They know that these other souls cannot harm them, but they are terribly upset and disappointed that they must be here, among them, rather than in a promised land.” —Swejen Salter (Life on the Other Side article based on Maggy’s early contacts, pre-1992)

Native American Communities Still Love the Great Spirit

Of Richard Francis Burton’s various reports about his expeditions at level 3, this is certainly one of my favorites, thanks to my friendship with Eugene Standingbear back in the 1970s. I think of him and his people often with kindness and respect.

During one of my expeditions a few years ago along the River of Eternity, I reached the village on a knoll overlooking the river. The land and the sky seemed boundless. The grass formed waves under the subdued sun wind. Corn and beans were growing along the stockade. The river banks were lined with poplar trees. The house of “Red Jacket” was right next to the medicine wigwam. The light from the entrance and from the smoke hole in the ceiling disappeared in the twilight shadow (suggesting this spirit community was at or near level 2?). ‘Ohi, Burton,’ he greeted me, ‘it is good to see you.’ He wore a red-stained leather garment with burned-in symbols and a white fur cap. I sat down. ‘Ohi, I have come because I heard that one of the missionaries of the Church of the Second Hope visited your village again.’ He nodded, ‘Not all white men are like you, Burton. I’ve gotten to know the white men here. Many are friends of mine and my people. The great spirit has made this land for all of us. We live peacefully together and we settle our differences in a pow-wow. But some of them still want to force their religion on us. They say they want to teach us how to honor the great spirit the way he wants it. What do they want from us? We respect and honor the great spirit the same way our forefathers did. We’re grateful for everything we receive. We love each other. We never argue about religion. We don’t want to argue with the white men, but if they keep crowding us, we’ll have to move somewhere else.’ I invited my red brothers to come close to Timestream (at level 3) ‘for there is good land. You can live undisturbed by religious zealots, as long as grass is growing and water is flowing in the rivers.’ Red Jacket replied, ‘We know you speak with a straight tongue, Brother. We have heard much about you from the seven Rainbow People, and I shall speak with my people. We shall see.” Since that time many red brothers (Wanapum, Duwamish, Irokese, Yakima, Sauk Fox, Winnebagos, Choktaw, Oglalla Sioux, Flatheads, and others) have been living nearby. Many participate in ITC. Here, their souls have found rest, and the missionaries are not likely to show up. —Richard Francis Burton (9702 p12)

Jewish Paradise

The letter below was accompanied by this picture of Karine Dray, who died in a car accident at age 21. Her parents, Maryvonne and Yvon Dray, were a French couple of Jewish descent living in Mexico. They hosted an afterlife conference in October, 1997, in Mexico City and invited several INIT members to attend. So our spirit friends at Timestream worked with a Jewish spirit group in delivering this picture and letter into the computer of INIT member Maggy Fischbach to be shared at the conference.

“Magnificent palaces with flowering gardens, the air filled with exquisite aromas. This is the place where the secrets of life are revealed. Although the studies of the Torah are helpful to reach paradise, you can forego them. Those who have no knowledge of it can still attain eternal life. Even uneducated people can enjoy the pleasure of paradise if they earned it. The cabby of a horse-drawn vehicle, whose soul once was allowed to enter the garden of Eden after heavenly judgment, did not like the spiritual atmosphere of the place. Not even the least advanced areas pleased him. He was sent to an imaginary world and given a carriage and two beautiful horses. This man finally believed he was in paradise! There is no purgatory that could be worse for bad people than being permitted into the true garden of Eden (the level 3 paradise where most of us awaken after death). How could they recognize the joys of godliness when they were never prepared for it on Earth”? —Grupo Rabino Israel Meir Kagan: Karine in front of the Palacio Lindemann (9703 p1)

Swejen Salter Finds Happiness in Paradise After an Unhappy Lifetime

Dear Maggy, as you know from our earlier talks, my childhood and married life weren’t easy. Here on Marduk I finally found happiness. I’m more physically fit than ever, and since my death 10 years ago at age 38, today I feel like 28, although according to a calendar I should be 48! Not a single gray hair, and my body is full of elasticity and energy. I often watch this same rejuvenation happen to newcomers. It typically lasts six to eight weeks. It sometimes consists of regular regeneration—the healing of wounds, even the growing of missing limbs. I recently observed the restoration of a missing eye. Why, dear Maggy, am I telling you things you already know? It is mainly that I want to pass on the message that life is indestructible. INIT should operate in the light of spiritual openness and with sincere and positive cooperation. There must not be any secrecy or hidden aversions between you. Touchy vanities have no room in the INIT contact field, neither have colorful attempts at soothing. —Swejen Salter (9801 p1)

Our Most Ancient History (and End Times)

These contacts suggest that humans were on Earth much earlier than we realize. I’m assuming that “the serpent” refers to dinosaurs and that “Eden or Marduk” was an inhabited planet in our solar system with an orbit between Mars and Jupiter. If I’m right (and it’s a big IF), then humans arrived on Earth some 4 billion years ago (as we measure time), before the cataclysmic destruction of Eden caused the “Late Heavy Bombardment,” the asteroid belt, the Kuiper belt, and the Oort cloud. Edenite colonists on Earth somehow survived the cataclysm, and Atlantis eventually emerged from the rubble. “Project Sothis” was apparently initiated before Atlantis to reunite humanity after the turmoil left over from the dinosaurs… but that all fell apart amid bad decisions made in Atlantis, leading to an “End Time.” That’s a speculative scenario that makes the most sense to me, based on the evidence, especially the contacts below.

Our Most Ancient History

“Long, long ago when humans came to Earth from Eden (or Marduk), they lost mastery over nature after their dissension with the serpent. Humans had to fight against nature and some of its most dangerous creatures. You call them monsters, but they were only life forms which defended themselves and their kind. These creatures did not subject themselves to the intellectual superiority of humans and had to be defeated and destroyed by cunning and strength. Human civilizations prevailed. Of these times long, long ago, only legends were handed down.” By the dawn of Christianity, the creatures were long gone from Earth, but they lived on in people’s minds, and saints like Michael were able to defeat their subtle, terrible presence by force. Later saints were also able to defeat and suppress the invisible creatures by force until they were eventually subdued by intellect.” —Thfirrin, one of The Seven (9602 p6)

“The ‘fall of Man’ is a legend handed down from Greek mythology. Humans were considered to be descendants of Titans who had killed the young Dionysus-Zagreus (the Titans ate the young god). The burden of this crime weighed heavily on them. In a writing by Anaximander it is said that the unity of the world was destroyed by a prehistoric crime. In reality, these legends are based on a factual incident: the downfall of Atlantis (also known by other names). This downfall was brought about by the descendants of the last inhabitants of Marduk who became marooned on planet Terra. This downfall came through reliance and blind trust in a massive technology.” —Thfirrin, one of The Seven (9602 p6)

Our Most Ancient History, Atlantis and The Project

Project Sothis was probably an effort to restore mutualistic, commensalistic (win-win, live-and-let-live) behavior on Earth long after the age of dinosaurs had entangled our world with predatory, parasitic, and competitive impulses… a stretch, but it’s the scenario that makes the most sense to me after assimilating these contacts for many years.

“The project started 20,000 years ago, and its final phase took place in Atlantis. Basilaie was the king’s island in an empire that sank in the middle of the 13th century B.C. It was located east of Helgoland. Diving expeditions have meanwhile located in the waters of a boulder field the ruins of manmade walls. Plato’s report (the only document still in existence) corresponds with the cultural traces of the South Scandinavian and Danish Bronze age. There also is a parallel with the stories of natural catastrophes and devastation which took place around 1220 B.C. in Northern Europe. For a better understanding also read the work of pastor Juergen Spamuth, The Demystified Atlantis, published by him in 1953. The Atlanteans were not necessarily the kind of people that many of you imagine. They did have a great culture, but they also had a great fleet that attacked and robbed the Mediterranean countries (where did you think their legendary wealth came from?), among them Corsica, Crete, Greece, Thessalia, and Macedonia. Also see the big Egyptian relief of a naval battle (the Egyptian priests reported to Solon about these raids—see Plato.) See also temple of medinet-habu, armament of the warrior sailors such as long swords, horned helmets, ships’ bows built like the neck of a swan…”. —Swejen Salter (9703 p5)

Epochs of Humanity: Out with the Old, In with the New

This true story (arguably, perhaps) took place thousands of years before the Second Epoch. Today we’re approaching the end of that Epoch that began in Babylon. Project Sothis was struggling at the time of this meeting, so I suspect the meeting took place in the final days of Atlantis, when the leaders (the Sothis priests) acknowledged some of their many mistakes. Their “space-time arch” probably wouldn’t have worked if humans then were as rowdy and troubled back then as they are now… and this contact suggests they were.

“Alkbrat of Shanidar was the last one to enter the great temple hall. He walked bent over and was slow of step. His white hair and flowing beard gave him a patriarchal appearance. He leaned his curved golden staff against the table and took his place at the head of the table. The others in the room remained silent; they knew they had to wait until the venerable old man opened the assembly. It was the last time that they would meet like this in the Sothis Temple, for the barbarians were already at the outer walls of the city. Alkbrat raised both hands and began with a clear, firm voice, which, despite his age, sounded full and strong: ‘Participants of this project, my brothers and sisters, the Golden Ages of our culture are at an end. Our civilization has become so indifferent that the innumerable dead, who die of starvation and disease, have become a common sight for you. They elicit no more than a sigh, or in the best case, a tinge of protest. The streets of our cities have become the residence of legions of the homeless; drugs rule the world; men murder their brothers on a scale and with a bestiality that has not been seen since the (previous) dark ages. At the same time, thousands of lesser acts of violence and abominations have become so customary that they hardly seem real. We have tried to avert the evil with our Project Sothis, but we have failed. We have made the mistake of reaching an understanding with the students of Nephtos, because we believed that as the caste of scientists, they would help us convince the people that the Gateway, the Space-Time Arch, was the last hope for our sick world. But we have erred. They have measured, minced and counted, and again, measured, minced and counted, and could not recognize the true meaning of our search, because they could not recognize the truth that stood behind our endeavors: the inseparability of the spiritual from the material world—the opening of the door between these worlds. This very night, a Spirit of the Rainbow appeared to me and assured me that they will guide us further and lead us when mankind approaches the next dark age. This will be when voices speak from boxes and human beings move through light behind glass. Here on this spot on the river after many millennia, a city will arise that will be called Babylon, and the Second Epoch will begin.’ Alkbrat arose. The golden threads that were interwoven through his deep blue garment shimmered in the glow of the candles. The others also arose and, extending their hands, they spoke the vow. So it came to pass, and it is being communicated to you (INIT members), because you have found each other again, and this time have passed the first part of the test. Continue to watch out for false friends and know that the journey is a long one.” —Lagelnev, one of The Seven (9901 p12)

I came to understand that Maggy and a few other INIT members had been among those Sothis priests in their earlier incarnations.

The Seven Finer Beings

The Seven finer beings facilitated and protected the ITC contact bridge that was opened and sustained for Maggy Fischbach and our INIT group. They said they’ve been “assigned” to Planet Earth and have been quietly supporting our world across the eons.

Unlimited Wisdom, Goodness, Understanding, and Forgiveness

Some of us regard the seven Rainbow People as great souls or creators. They live on our plane and yet are really not among us. They can ascend to higher planes and again ‘bend down’ to our level. Their power is almost unlimited and so is their wisdom and goodness. Their entire being is illuminated by understanding and forgiveness. It is impossible to describe the good feeling that overcomes the person who faces them and can speak to them. “We seek council with these higher beings to determine the information to send to Earth. The meetings take place in a round room with transparent walls. During the talks the room revolves, and lights, colors and shapes of breathtaking beauty pass by on the outside. Soft “music of the spheres” is heard in the background.” —Swejen Salter, director of Timestream at level 3 (9601 p15)

When Pat Kubis and I were writing Conversations Beyond the Light, she told me she was certain she’d attended one of those meetings in that ethereal room during a dream. I believed her.

A Rational, Instinctive Intellect

Simply stated, humanity is good and bad, so good spirits and bad spirits are attracted to us. The Seven have been a force of good associated with our world for a long, long time.

Children of Earth, people of Terra, there are moments in your life when anxiety befalls you. Most of your inner fear comes from yourself. It can take you over and open up avenues for low spirits and their influence and damaging manipulations. Avoid fear and insecurity. Do not doubt! We, the Seven, tell you that you did the right thing. Your decision to tackle the job of spreading an ethically and morally founded ITC was a decision and an act of free will. Let your unity be known to the outside by your writing. Though you are still a small group, by your publications, meetings and lectures you can change the world and keep the door to other dimensions open, even in dark times. We, the Seven, have a rational, instinctive intellect, very different from yours. We know each of you in INIT and know your weaknesses. We understand you and love you in spite of your weaknesses. In this life you will always remain children with the dreams of Titans. What is so bad about that? We too do not claim to know everything, although our wisdom and knowledge seem to be unlimited next to yours. We are greeting you and thank you. Especially interested in accomplishing a harmonic unity of mind are The Seven beings of Rainbow People —Technician, Ishkumar, Thfirrin, Seth 3, Nsitden, Mrekklin, and Lagelnev—helpers of INIT for the connection between Planet Earth and the higher vibrational planes. (9801 p8)

Nature of the Cosmos

These ITC computer reports give us an unprecedented glimpse into the cosmos—the “all-that-is.”

Freedom Is Intended for the Refined, The Nature of God

Unrestricted freedom for butterflies and lambs would be a dream. For mosquitoes and wolverines it would be a nightmare. Parasitic, predatory, and competitive impulses are not compatible with freedom. Hence the relentless struggles on Planet Earth.

Many of you have the wrong impression of us. Your mediums recognize only one aspect of us. People who believe they have a direct connection to the source (God, Jehovah, Allah…), or that the source is a person, are wrong. God is the totality, the highest principle of life, the limitless cosmos, the absolute unity. It’s not one of the countless creative individuals throughout the cosmos. It makes no difference what religion you belong to. The one cosmic truth is found along the path of decency. Freedom is always available to those who follow eternal principles. —Ishkumar, one of The Seven (9603 p9)

A Common Vision on Earth Would Attract Spiritual Support for ITC

The Ptolemaic view has long been misunderstood, interpreted to mean that “Earth is at the center of the universe.” What it really suggests, I believe, is that when entities in the cosmos want to communicate with Earth, then Earth is the focal point of that communication. Everything has to revolve around people’s thoughts and motivations… which are diverse and unpredictable.

“The world in which we live, which you call ‘the other side,’ is constructed according to the basic laws of Ptolemy.” Those laws are generally misunderstood by people both on Earth and in spirit. The Ptolemaic model has morphed in your world according to the views of Copernicus, Einstein, Hawking, Sheldrake and other scientists, resulting in a correspondingly reduced number who arrive here. So, the afterlife is somewhat “out of joint” at the moment as countless people arrive from Earth. To deal with the disparity, our hope, through ITC and INIT, is that people will read what you write, discuss it, and slowly construct a stable direction of thinking. Our plan, then, is to reach the core of our world and make changes based on what you tell us. That will provide common ground for future ITC. Meanwhile, we continue to try to inspire evolving humanity with spiritual principles and moral truths, taking into account life in the current age. —The Seven (9701 p3)

Parallel Worlds… and Possible Dangers in Tinkering with the Tiny

Earth has various parallel worlds—that is, other physical planets superimposed over Earth that exist in different dimensions of the material realm or physical plane—and two of those worlds are called Varid and Telmis, according to our friends at Timestream, whose director Swejen Salter says she arrived at level 3 after dying on Varid, not on Earth.

On planet Varid we theorized that our universe came into existence in two stages: 1) splitting of the void into energy and anti-energy, and 2) transformation of energy into matter (suns and planets). We considered repulsion between energy and anti-energy to be the cause of the accelerating ‘drifting-apart’ of the universe. Our science team tried to determine the origin of matter and energy, assuming that a total vacuum, or absolute void space, consists of energy and ‘anti-energy’ that would eventually split. We created a set of nested vacuum tubes that would implode by themselves. During our experiment, energy and matter repelled each other as expected, causing one such implosion. We now produced this anti-energy artificially, to spread all over our hermetically sealed laboratory in order to nullify atomic energy (also an artificial energy) which was also introduced in the lab. We were happy and confident that our discovery of ‘anti-atomic energy’ would make atomic warfare impossible, once we opened our lab doors and let it escape and spread into our world Varid, into the atmosphere, and into space. But our optimism was short-lived. Our 80-year-old project leader’s white hair started turning dark again, and his arthritis disappeared. A female colleague, 4 months pregnant, began to menstruate. A younger girl quit menstruating and complained of shrinking breasts. We’d reversed time! Releasing this anti-energy would be disastrous. Our attempts to destroy our lab caused a tremendous explosion in which I died. It was 1987 October 30. I never found out what happened to Varid…. —Dr. Swejen Salter (9702 p5).

To our friends of INIT. When we put through pictures to you they are often criticized for looking too earth-like. If we sent you pictures that originate from higher dimensions, you would not recognize them. To give you an idea, we send you a picture from level 4 and the same object ‘synchronized’ to level 3. It’s the planet Telmis, one of the parallel worlds of Earth which encircles a pulsar. The high level of radiation that exists on the planet makes ‘human’ life impossible and provides a much finer ‘vibration’ of the planet. —Swejen Salter (9702 p7)

Cosmic Communication: Why ITC Can Be Cleaner Than MTC

Instrumental transcommunication (ITC) brings information into our world through our equipment but requires a person’s psychic sensitivity and a strong, focused will to make the contacts possible. Under those conditions, and with the close collaboration of our spirit friends, that information can often come through virtually unfiltered into our computers and other devices.

MTC, or mediumistic transcommunication, is a mind-to-mind sharing of information that’s more natural (cosmically speaking) than ITC, but our minds here on Earth are cluttered to the point where channeled information is always filtered, to a greater or lesser degree, by our mental clutter. In other words, natural telepathy is usually impure here on Earth, as Yang Fudse explains.

“Friends of the Blue Planet, everything that is, owes its existence to the Tao (life-energy from the source, presumably). Everything that is not, owes its non-existence to the Tao.” You should consider this when you think about the validity of communication through a medium (channeling). Some of your scientists understand that a resonance of DNA with electromagnetic waves is more than a probability. They are on the right track. The wavelengths of this universal communication system operate with the speed of light (probably referring to “spiritual light,” which is instantaneous), enabling communication of not only all body cells with each other but also opens them to a ‘cosmic field of information’ as described by the learned Sheldrake. In this manner, transcendental information can get into the human subconscious, especially in the state that lies between being awake and dreaming, which you call trance. The communication between the subconscious and the wide-awake consciousness is needed to receive messages from the cosmic information field. Only a few among you are called to do this. In their daily observations they will often fill observance gaps with their own fantasies. Even more so, a fleeting trance vision can falsely be evaluated and misinterpreted. One should therefore be careful with material from a medium. The messages through equipment in an ITC contact field (I am not speaking of EVP), are differently structured. They are attracted by the consciousness (an emotional lance) and filtered by it. For their manifestation it is not even necessary that the experimenter be physically present. Here too, falsifications may creep in, but are always detected and corrected after a while. On the other hand, mediums who usually praise themselves and claim their messages are to be evaluated higher than instrumental messages, are not suited to participate in Project Sothis. —Yang Fudse (9703 p12)

Understanding (and Authenticating) ITC

Recognizing the difficulty that modern science has authenticating spiritual projects like ITC, our spirit friends went to great extremes to authenticate our work with cross-contacts, information unknown to the receivers, and other, non-scientific techniques. In the process they helped us understand how it all works—the delivery of information from level 3 (where people communicate mind-to-mind with thought impulses) to Earth (where we prefer pictures, words and sentences that we can see or hear).

Difficulty of Scientific Authentication of ITC

INIT members: You have received no phone calls from us in recent months, some for several years, because we’re restructuring our phone contacts, not because you’re out of favor with us. The fuss stirred up by skeptics (even some former INIT members who demand proof) have no bearing on the changes we’re making. Insisting on verification of our phone calls is nonsense, considering the scientific and technical limitations in your world. Everything still relies on the honesty of the receivers. As your friends in the southern hemisphere develop a phone not connected to the public networks, we watch with great interest. For now, phone calls will only be made to INIT members. The calls will be sporadic as we wait to see what the receivers do with their experiences. It’s good to experiment with other types of equipment too, but the inner person is really key. We see things through a spiritual eye. —Lagelnev, one of The Seven (9603 p9)

Difficulty of Scientific Authentication in Relation to the Cosmos

Attempts are being made by Earth experimenters to verify and strengthen ITC contacts with the hope of making them repeatable. This is as impossible as simultaneously determining the position and vector of an electron. Just like the contact, you cannot pinpoint an electron as a tangible entity. Both have to be considered in the duality aspect of wave and particle. Imagine all space filled with possibilities like waveforms. You only recognize wave peaks and valleys and assume the electron at the points of its highest values. The wave functions collaborate at the moment of observation. An intersection of (quantum) reality and the physical senses have been created. The situation is similar with transcontacts. Space-time consists of eleven dimensions, of which only four can directly be perceived by you. The other seven (compact) dimensions exist and are present in a vanishingly small scale in your universe. They are rolled together to the topological equivalent of light tubes whose diameter lies within quantum limits to determine the size of Plank’s length. The value of physical constants are determined by the tubes and by gravitation, electron charges, selectivity, etc. When these tubes “unroll” a little or open (during contact) the constants are momentarily changed. Also, time ceases to exist. This can occasionally be dangerous. Peace and friendship for all life. —Swejen Salter and Konstantin Raudive (9701 p9)

Authentication via Personal Information Unknown to Receivers

This contact to Maggy Harsch-Fischbach announced a new member of my spirit group, a 19^th Century British-American journalist called Arthur Beckwith who’d be working with spirit group Timestream. Arthur gave me interesting details of his life to research… which I did.

“Dear Mrs Harsch, I’m addressing this to you since you’re the main communicator on your side for messages like this.” I’m Arthur Beckwith, and I’m in charge of a group here at Timestream who analyze your newsletter and the reports about your work in different countries like the ones written by my home colleague Mark Macy. To verify, I’d like to share the following information: I was born in Houghton-le-Spring Sunderland (UK). I was in Jamaica in 1857 where I met my beloved wife Susan. And I was employed at the Sun, the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, the Citizen. I am here now, at Group Timestream, together with Scott Joplin, Marjorie Hamilton, Bill O’Neil, Jeannette D (Meek) and my friend Bill H. Lynch who was (as he told me) in his terrestrial days rector of St John’s Roman Catholic Church in Lambertville NJ (he seems to have had some difficulties in offering to perform marriages during 1912 without cost) and Francis H. Glazebrook of Morristown (a medical doctor)…. —Arthur Beckwith, 19^th Century NY journalist (9601 p13)

Authentication via Cross-Contact: Phone Call Confirmation

ITC requires a psychic bridge between the receivers on Earth and the senders at level 3. We have to be aware of our spirit friends.

“This is Konstantin Raudive via the devices at Station Rivenich (Germany). Dear colleague Adolf Homes, I herewith confirm my own contacts with Mr Malkhoff, and with Mr Meek and Macy in America. More contacts have been made successfully in China and Japan by telephone and FAX. Our tests are necessary because humanity is in a state of being, created by themselves, which is negative for us to the point that we cannot influence consciousness. We therefore ask you to open the psychic barriers to a greater extent. Only then is there a possibility for us to proceed with more contacts via radio receivers, televisions and (standalone) computers. Unfortunately, messages from our side by telephone and fax do not suffice to make clear to humanity our reality as one of many realities”. —Konstantin Raudive, delivered to the computer of German researcher Adolf Homes. (9601 p7)

Authentication via Cross-Contact (the Cosmos, Importance of Dreams)

This is the first attempt at a cross-contact or temporary simultaneous adjustment between stations Schweich (Friedrich Malkhoff) and Luxembourg (Maggy Fischbach). On Earth you have finite resources, and you assume the rest of the cosmos has those limitations. In reality, the cosmos consists of many dimensions forming an omniverse. We, at level 3, receive life-energies from every part of your universe at any time. Space and time are identical to us. Your space-time existence is illusory and confining. Tell people to pay attention to their dreams, where they can get glimpses of the greater reality. This contact was dispatched to stations Schweich and Luxembourg at the same point in time. Other stations are in the process of being activated. Be patient. —Konstantin Raudive (9701 p11)

How ITC Works: Favorable Conditions on Earthside (a Strong, Focused Will)

A stable ITC bridge or contact field requires someone on Earth who possesses a strong, focused will.

After a long interruption of ITC contacts, a new bridge has been activated. It will let us stabilize these fax contacts and give you the chance to heal emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. One might say that by strong use of the centers of feeling this field was worn out. Beginning now, it is being reshaped during the next few days. We know, some among you still find it hard to look at these contacts, and in particular the fax contacts, as authentic transcommunication. Skeptics be advised, just as waves can influence matter, matter (in this case spirit matter) can influence electromagnetic waves. “In specially suited experimenters (to whom you wrongly refer as ‘successful’) there develops a sort of ‘emotional lance’ in the center of their emotional consciousness which ‘materializes’ tones, signs and pictures in your realm that are imperceptible to you. People are usually born with this particular polarization of consciousness.” That’s why ITC is not widely spread in your world. Do not envy those who walk this way, for it is long and full of thorns. Many of you would quickly want to get off it. My greetings to you honorable citizens of the blue planet. —Yang-Fudse (9701 p10)

How ITC Works: Favorable Conditions on Earthside (a Common Vision)

When humans can work together committed to a common vision, free from doubts and envy and other troubling emotions, humanity will be ready for a stable ITC bridge or contact field.

”The human mind is like a hologram which contains millions of small holograms, but the brain is merely an electrochemical generator in combination with an interferometer…. We think that an emerging human vision should be the measure of things…. New ITC stations will develop, but when and where new development starts is up to you. Those who understand this will receive help.”  —Swejen Salter (9701 p8)

How ITC Works: Favorable Conditions on Earthside (Public Interest in ITC)

Apparently our spirit friends at level 3 regard Rupert Sheldrake’s work as a suitable basis from which a common scientific vision of the cosmos might begin to evolve on Earth someday. Widepread public interest in ITC might someday establish a “morphic field” conducive to ITC.

Whether you believe it or not, people’s interest in ITC is the most important factor in ITC. In the manner in which you form us with the power of your thoughts, you will be the object of our dream world. If there is sufficient interest for us on your side, we are real and can take part in the happenings there. Through you, we in turn become strong. The main obstacle to ITC is hardened skepticism that is beyond convincing even with the best of evidence. You are still arguing about proof, you should be studying ITC to find out how the world could be changed with it. For instance, could you bring yourself to accept Sheldrake’s concept of morphic resonance you would already be a little closer to the truth. Similar structures can be in communication with each other across space and time by means of morphogenic fields. —Swejen Salter (9701 p11)

How ITC Works: Favorable Conditions on Spiritside

Spirits breathe? Our spirit friends have described their atmosphere as “sun wind,” which is probably a level 3 variant of the life-energy that streams through the cosmos carrying life, knowledge, goodness, and healing power. Since their bodies are patterned after ours, they apparently breathe life-energy the way we breathe air. (We might even learn someday that our “air” is a form of life-energy as it manifests here at level 1.)

I’m deeply and genuinely humbled by your inclusion of my reports in your research journals. We breathe in and out just as you do. I’ve been wanting to send you more information, but the conditions of the sun wind have prevented it until now. Also, according to friend Ernst Mackes, the stars have to be properly aligned and receptive to your moods. (The “stars” apparently refer to finer beings at level 7 who have an interest in the project.) He arrived here moments ago, breathless, exclaiming, ‘The Gods will be merciful today, and we can lay the moebius loop!’ So here’s some information that might help you on your way to the Tao. When you’re distressed by your enemies and yearn for help and information from us, we can only do what our friends near the source of peace do—the source that most wise men will return to. We respond only from a place of peace. I recall from my experiences on Earth more than 2,000 years ago that there were simple people with special powers to heal and to talk to the spirits, and there were charlatans who spoke loudly and influenced many with their conceit and superstitions and fell victim to bad spirits. We value highly the work of your INIT group. Don’t be discouraged, and don’t do it alone. “A single straw is easily bent, but the group forms a thick bundle.” —Yang Fudse, Keeper of the Shrine at Station Co-Time, on the Hill of the Yellow Jade (9602 p13)

Favorable Conditions Spiritside (Constellations), Earthside (Resonance)

Again, constellations must be favorable probably means both “the stars have to be properly configured” and “light beings near the source need to favor the project at the moment.” Imagine a kind, loving person surfing the internet as a gnat walks across the screen. The kind person would be like a light being at level 7 observing the cosmos, and the confused bug would be like a troubled planet at the fringes (level 1) that begs our attention. What’s a light being to do? “Squashing bugs” is not in their nature.

“Children of Earth, people of Terra, your complaints and your irritation have reached us” as you struggle to sustain ITC and spread knowledge of the afterlife. People on Earth have believed in life after death from the beginning, though religious and spiritual beliefs have veered in many directions, and many people don’t believe at all. Additionally, there are many believers and nonbelievers alike who doubt other-worldly knowledge imperceptible to your sciences. The INIT mission isn’t easy. You yourselves complain that much of what we share is information you already know, and that there are long periods of time that you don’t hear from us. Well, first of all, we’ve often told you that the more widely our information is spread by you, the more we can share new information. And second, you also know that time is illusory. Months for you might seem like seconds to us. Most important, though: There are certain conditions that must be in place for ITC contacts, not the least of which is that the constellations must be favorable. Also, when you become embroiled in animosities with skeptics or with other ITC researchers, conditions become unfavorable (as harmony is lost). “Most of the INIT people already feel a deep spiritual link to each other and a great confidence. You are beginning to see a goal and purpose in the seemingly fragmented and disparate messages you receive. This is the way that you can walk together with us.” —Ishkumar, one of The Seven (9701 p6)

How ITC Works, and the Difficult Mission of INIT

The Timestream spirits, monitored closely by The Seven finer beings, were meticulous about being as pure and truthful as possible with the information they sent to our INIT group. That was not an easy task because information exchanged between spirit and Earth is always the result of a “mind-meld.” To get information on Earth that is pure and truthful, the receivers have to be reasonably pure and truthful themselves. And that was the biggest challenge for INIT… or for any human group for the past 20,000 years or more.

To the participants of Project Sothis: The messages we send you are explanations to make you understand things differently, and we urge you to discuss the information and share it with your world. Several contacts that were aimed against INIT seemed hazy, not because the circumstances are complicated, but those who make these contacts public are satisfied with half-truth and do not bring light to what is still misunderstood. Therefore, their path cannot be our path. —Nsitden in unison with the other 6 rainbow people. (9703 p11)

Living on Earth (from Spirits’ Point of View)

Life on Earth is a struggle for almost everyone and everything. It was apparently designed that way long, long ago through carelessness, as we explored earlier in Most Ancient History. Meanwhile, there are ways to transcend much of the struggle during a lifetime, as these contacts explain.

Reconciling Our Fear of Death

Fear of death is evidence of the mind having lost its spiritual roots, caused by an intellectual and scientific way of thinking that wants all thoughts reduced to a comprehensible level of material existence. Heaven is in man and those who have heaven within themselves go to heaven. Heaven is in all those who recognize what is of God and let themselves be guided by the Divine. The priority and basic concern of every religion has always been the acknowledgement of God.” —Technician, one of The Seven (9603 p5)

Enhancing our Spiritual Nature

The truest and most succinct way to enhance our spiritual nature during a lifetime is simply to foster conscious contact with the source, what religions call God, Allah, Yahweh, Brahman, and the Great Spirit (as the contact below suggests), and to welcome into our life its rich life-energy (Holy Spirit, Light of Heaven and Earth, Aum, universal life force, prana, Spirit of YHWH….)

People of Terra, beware of false friends and misleading advice. Any religion is good when it shows the path of decency through honesty toward the one cosmic truth. If your theologians would all recognize that, the world would be a better place. In the final analysis, what matters is the victory of reason and understanding over materialism and irrationality at the End Time. Knowing of a higher power and advanced beings who serve this higher power can assist you on your path, although some people regrettably must perish without that knowledge. They fear or resist it. The day will come when they realize that they are safe with us (finer beings beyond level 3). —Ishkumar, one of The Seven (9603 p10)

Choosing Good over Evil (and the Challenges of INIT)

“Children of Earth, people of Terra: You know the world is not changed by cosmic events but by changes in the individual. Every person is unique and can build a palace for good or a dungeon for evil. This recognition should make clear to all of you your share of responsibility” in all happenings, including the troubles now facing INIT. As your group grows with positive reforms, it’s natural that some who resist the changes are hostile toward you. Others of you believe that since every human being carries a spark of the divine within, that they can appeal or argue with the dissenters on the same level. Unfortunately, this is not true in your world of daily battles with human shortcomings. I noticed how under the weight of a stone all kinds of repulsive worms and vermin accumulate. Likewise, it is under the weight of fear and envy when hate and thoughts of destruction come forth. Do not think that you only have to awaken what is humane and dignified in a person to make them walk the way of the light. Follow your path and let those who have chosen another path follow theirs. Some are fooled by beings who want to harm you. They, too, will understand and in time find their way back to their true spiritual home. You, the participants in Project Sothis, should not fear anything. We are with you. —Ishkumar, one of The Seven (9603 p11)

Testing the Spirits, Appraising People, and Following the Light

This message was received when our INIT group was going through serious problems among a few members, which most of us shrugged off as personality differences. It was apparently more serious than that, and it became clear to me that ITC, or any other higher spiritual pursuit involving a group, might be difficult to sustain in our world. But not impossible! We just need inner work, discernment, reflection, and one mind shared by all members.

Evil is non-existent only in the finer reaches of spirit that are without matter (Levels 3 and above, presumably). In your material world, jealousy is like a bacillus that aims to destroy an existing body. You cannot see it with the naked eye but its action is devastating when it combines with ignorance: ‘The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness sees it not.’ Your question should not be: ‘How can higher beings let jealousy, hate, and darkness happen?’ but, ‘How can people on earth let all this happen?’ Hate is a basic feeling and, like all feelings, can be expressed in different ways. Within Project Sothis it should never be allowed to even get close, let alone infiltrate it or try to destroy it. Hate will turn to evil when given unlimited freedom. Test the spirits. By their words you shall know them. Carefully read the alleged spirit messages that reflect even traces of envy, jealousy, and hate. Form your own opinion. You shall easily detect who wants to deceive you and who not. Look for the true problems on your poor planet whose civilization has been damaged, whose children have become victims of wars and whose environment and creatures have been offended. You shall see that there is no room for petty fights or for people who cannot cope with the realities of life. They become victims to disturbance and fear, which are bad counselors. These people want to be and want to have everything at once, but are of little substance and cannot have what they want. Humanity is on its way and will make mistakes, but it is the only form of humanity there is. Above all, be true to yourself for you have to lead your own life. —The Seven (9703 p14)

Living What We Believe

“Children of Earth – People of Terra: Today we want to talk about misunderstood esoterics and about messages which want to make some of you feel that God not only has a special love for you, but that you are able to encounter him face to face. These people see themselves as special children of God and equate creation with the fall of man.” They ignore Earth’s problems, injustices, and sufferings and consider the innocent unborn fetus more precious than the children born into a world of ‘sin.’ They are only concerned with their own problems which are often rather small and have little bearing on their fellow human beings. They lose what should be most important in their lives—the loyalty to their brothers and sisters. We give you no doctrines and no commandments, we only recommend that you try to live in harmony with the universe. That can only happen when you become aware that pleasing words of love and peace are not enough if the true spirit is missing. Only if you live what you proclaim about love and harmony shall you find true inner peace. We, whom you call the rainbow people, shall help you on your way. —Ishkumar, one of The Seven. (9703 p11)

Healing Rifts through Tolerance and Unity

This contact refers to a spiritside effort to heal an earthside rift between ITC researchers Adolf Homes of Germany, and Maggy Fischbach and her husband Jules Harsch of Luxembourg. While the rift remained between Mr Homes and the Luxembourg couple, their respective transpartners at level 3 (Elise Caroline Homes and Swejen Salter) remained very close friends. This computer letter was received by Mr Homes and the Harsch-Fischbach couple at the same time:

This is Mother through Communication Bridge R4. Hello, Son, this contact takes place because spirit beings are interested in you and have suggested a new course of cooperation. They want to make possible an ethical and moral cooperation in matters of ITC. In coordination with my friend Swejen Salter, I am letting you know that the necessary foundations now exist. We have already indicated this to you in our message of March 14, 1997. I know that some of you still have reservations. This is understandable from a human point of view. Please tell your friends that it is unimportant which group they finally belong to. What is important for future bridgebuilding between worlds are people of understanding and good will who work together harmoniously. And never forget that tolerance is the cord that ties us all together. I am greeting you, together with Swejen, in love and in hope. —Elise Karoline Homes. 1997 May 7, 5:30 a.m. (9801 p14)

Cattle Madness or Human Madness

The predatory, parasitic, and competitive aspects of nature in our world spin out of the fact that living things kill and eat each other and steal vital things from each other. It’s apparently a rare condition throughout the cosmos, where everything is apparently nourished almost entirely by life-energy from the source. For some reason (that we explored earlier in Our Ancient History), life on Earth supplements that cosmic nourishment in predatory, parasitic, and competitive ways that most of the cosmos finds distasteful.

Cattle and other mammals can all evaluate their surroundings and behave accordingly, yet humanity behaves as if Earth is their world alone to exploit. “Cattle madness” is a symptom of that narrow-mindedness. The purpose of existence is to feel a kinship and oneness with all life. The concept of human superiority over ‘soul-less’ animals, as taught by Christianity (never by Jesus himself) is wrong. Pope Pius IX felt that human obligation to animals was a theological error and opposed formation of an ISPCA (Italian Society to Prevent Cruelty to Animals). Since his death in 1878 he cleans stalls, is doing well, and will soon be nursing animals. We are waiting for others who oppose kindness to animals and who urge medical experiments on them. Earth is an unusual predatory world where living things mistreat, kill and eat each other. “Keep on eating the meat and vegetables you need to subsist, but be grateful for what you eat. Prayers at the table spoken from the heart will help you not to feel like you have blood on your hands. The slaughtered cattle are received here by good people and after the period of regeneration are being led to the big herds of Master Pescator (Jesus) in the Moreysia Mountains.” —Technician, one of The Seven (9603 p10)

Handling Grief

“Children of Earth, people of Terra, today I would like to talk to you about grief.” Many of you know with certainty that death is simply a passing into another life, yet you are shocked by the death of a loved one, followed by controlled behavior (like standing your ground during the funeral…), exhaustion and sickness. Be aware that it’s your right to express grief as a natural reaction to sorrow and loss. In fact, it is dangerous to suppress them. What helps is the actual nearness of another human being. But in your cold, emotionless world, there often is no room for such things. Your experts, such as physicist and parapsychologist Prof. Dr. Werner Schiebeler, explain the difference between genuine sorrow and destructive grief. We urge people who know of the afterlife—ITC researchers, in particular—to be patient with grief. Do not try to react in words or in writing as though death did not take place. Grief is the answer to the loss of a loved one, and whoever is denied this reaction will suffer psychologically or physically or both. —Lagelnev, one of the Seven. (9702 p3)

Conclusion: User’s Guide for a Lifetime

I feel like I’ve learned a heck of a lot about the afterlife and the cosmos over the past 40 years, thanks mostly to Maggy Fischbach and Timestream spirit group, though I also know that it amounts to little more than a drop in the ocean… so there’s infinitely more (literally) to be figured out by minds brighter than mine.

I suspect that the only people who see the complete, big picture are those who get touched by the source in a moment of enlightenment, and there haven’t been many of those people. I probably wouldn’t enjoy that experience. A moment of perfection? Total oneness? Complete serenity? What would I do with that when I got back to Earth? I think I might start making sounds of a pure, peaceful burbling brook by moving my index finger up and down over my lips. Being enlightened here on Earth can be a very difficult path, as Yang Fudse said earlier. (On the other hand, joking aside, the only way to find a degree of genuine inner peace in this world of drama is by fostering conscious contact with the source—the only truth—so that we can receive an expanding allotment of life-energy that’s safe and suitable to our spiritual growth.)

Meanwhile, having been a technical writer and small-town journalist for most of my career (before getting hopelessly, wonderfully ensnared by the mysteries of afterlife and the cosmos), I think of this article as my User’s Guide and Reference Manual for a lifetime. I hope some readers find the information useful! 🙂

Note (2023 Oct 15): This article is primarily about the computer contacts received by INIT members. It should be mentioned, however, a few other researchers were also getting computer contacts at the time, most notably Adolf Homes (working with Friedrich Malkhoff) and Ken Webster.

Adolf Homes in Germany received numerous computer contacts in the 1990s, as documented on the worlditc.org website. (Here’s a link to an article... )

Ken Webster and Deb Oakes in England were the first people known to get spirit messages in a computer. It started in 1984, a year or two before Maggy Fischbach and her husband Jules Harsch got their first computer text from spirit. Here’s a link to an article I wrote a few years ago about Ken Webster’s experiences, based on his book The Vertical Plane.
