#01 — Handling Drama

Three simple steps make it easier to deal appropriately with any of the countless dramas that stir things up in our lives and our world, regardless of how petty or profound the drama is.

• Acknowledge the cosmos as it is manifested by the perfect source that’s at the center of everything… what we call God, Allah, Brahman, the universal life force, and other names. Get familiar with its qualities—love, honesty, trust, good will…—and adapt them into our lives. That attracts finer spirit to help choreograph our lives in synchronistic ways, whether as shopping guides, selling guides, fixing guides… or changing-the-world guides.
• Use the famous “serenity prayer” to determine if the drama is something we can appropriately address. While mindful of the source, make a simple request: Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
• Do what needs to be done, if anything, and return to the first step—acknowledging the cosmos and its perfect source that rests at the center of our being… at the center of everything.

#02 — Journey from the Center of the Cosmos

This is an imaginary journey (based on evidence)—a journey from the source at the center of everything (God, Allah, Brahman, the principle…) through many spiritual dimensions and universes… all the way to Earth.

Preparing for the journey. Imagine making conscious contact with the source, something that ordinarily takes many years of devoted meditation or contemplative prayer. We feel infinite power and love in the brilliant life-energy emitted by the source and spreading through the entire cosmos with life, consciousness, and perfect motivation. Then…

LEVELS 7, 6, and 5—light beings and energy beings.

From the source, we venture out-beyond into the ethereal realms of light beings and energy beings. The rainbow rays of these brilliant souls evoke images of divine wings, and we feel their minds as a powerful, creative force. They cultivate countless universes in countless dimensions with their rich life-energies that hold power to create, sustain, guide, and protect. They observe their cosmic creations, gently shape the worlds with their intentions, and offer guidance and support to their inhabitants.

LEVELS 4 and 3—refined astral beings. At each level along the journey, the life-energies become denser and vibrate more slowly. By the time we reach level 4, they begin to morph into familiar shapes of people, planets, and other physical things. The bodies and shapes at levels 3 and 4 feel solid and real to the inhabitants there, but to us, visiting from Earth, they seem fine and delicate, almost insubstantial. They won’t congeal or harden until they become matter at level 1. Meanwhile, the residents of level 4 still have many of mental powers of energy beings. They can travel instantly to another location or create something simply by focusing their intention, while life at level 3 is more earth-like—walking, riding in vehicles, and making things by hand.

LEVEL 2—a “finishing school.” We resume our journey now to level 2, a sort of holding place where people fresh off the Earth (level 1) have a bit too much emotional baggage to feel comfortable in the level 3 paradise. Here at level 2, they behave like people on Earth who are generally friendly but a bit impulsive or volatile. They have good intentions, but they still make mistakes… hurt other people’s feelings. Living at level 2 gives them a chance to mellow out and refine themselves until they resonate more finely with each other, so they’ll feel comfortable getting settled into level 3.

LEVEL 1—rollercoaster Earth. We’re born on Earth with recollections of our recent spirit adventures. The memories typically fade away over the first six years of life, but at first we can see spirits in the room—sometimes superimposed over the people smiling down on us in the crib—and between ages 3 and 6 many of us have invisible friends or playmates. Most of us are telepathic until around age 6, when our five senses stabilize, and our impressions of the material world become our sensual reality. Most of us spend our early years steeped in the love and kindess of family and friends (especially our moms). It’s a familiar feeling, reminding us of the refined spiritual realms whence we came. That human love becomes a shining seed throughout or lives, forging friendships and intimate relationships.

But we soon notice disturbing things as we observe people and animals They intentionally hurt each other, take stuff from each other, and compete with each other to prevail. None of these strange things were happening along our journey through the finer spirit realms, but here on Earth we have to get used to it. It seems to be a way of life! These patterns continue wherever we go, whatever we do. There’s love and kindness everywhere, but people can also be cruel and hurtful sometimes. There’s a lot of suffering in the world.

Journey’s End

The journey has given us perspective for living on Earth. The source with its infinite power of love, honesty, trust, and good will is like a guiding light. The more we can stay anchored in that perfection and pattern our lives after it, the more we resonate with the cosmos and reap the bounty. We recognize our true spiritual heritage, so that the dramas going on around us (and within us) during a lifetime on Earth begin to play just a minor role in our lives.

# # #

#03—Flourishing in the Lightest and Darkest of Times

Earth shines with spiritual light, and it’s blemished with spiritual darkness. Love, truth, kindness, and contentment (light) bring us together, while hatred, deception, cruelty, and desire (darkmess) break us apart. We watch those forces play out in the world, and we feel them stirring within us, for better or worse.

Spiritual light and darkness. Spiritual light, or life-energy, is the essence of the source, the substance of the cosmos… the only thing that’s real.

On Earth, some of the light is blocked by fear, deception, and other troubled feelings that bristle in our world, casting a spiritual shadow around the planet. The shadow, the darkness, and the struggle between light and darkness in our world are all a “mirage,” according to mystics. The only reality is the source and the light… and the oneness of everything and everyone in the cosmos. Once we realize that only the source and its light are real, the darkness associated with our world becomes powerless.

Aligning to the Light. Finding peace on Earth is simply a matter of committing to the light. That’s done through moral living, which is best defined as…

• Understanding the dichotomy of Earth (where illusory darkness from the shadow seems to be in a perpetual struggle against the true, brilliant light from the source),
• Acknowledging the perfect source at the center of everything as the only reality,
• Devising or adapting our lives as best we can around that perfection (especially through meditation or contemplative prayer), and
• Acting accordingly.

#04—Those Lights over New Jersey? Drones… UAVs… UFOs?

The strange lights in the night skies above New Jersey (and other states) during the past month (from mid-November to mid-December, 2024) got a lot of attention. While the media generally referred to them as “drones” because drones are a familiar concept nowadays, the objects displayed some un-drone-like qualities and behaviors. What were those things in the sky, really?

Let’s see if we can find a few nuggets of truth in these recent events through the eyes of credible observers.

(We’ll set aside reports that seem too sensational, like conspiracy theory… or too sanitized, like methodical, peer-reviewed science or scrubbed government press releases.)

Credible Eyewitnesses

• Rich McHugh, an award-winning reporter, said he saw at least 50 of the objects during his investigation with the Ocean County Sheriff’s Department. “When this story first came out a few weeks ago, as a resident of New Jersey, as a journalist, I didn’t pay it much credence. I thought it would turn out to be a bunch of pranksters, and this would all be over by now, but the experience I had last night changed the way I feel about this story completely. What I saw was more sophisticated than I ever imagined.” McHugh said he saw U- or V-shaped, fixed-wing aircraft about 8 to 10 feet wide with multicolored, blinking lights. “Definitely not an airplane, but what was it?” he wondered.
• Dr. Katherine Ramsland, a forensic psychologist, said, “I saw one going west with red blinking lights. Another one was coming toward it from the west, going east, and then the westward one suddenly turned around and went into formation with the one going east. The lights turned green, and then yellow.” Dr Ramsland said the drones were turning too fast and hovering too close to each other to have been planes. Also, she said, they didn’t make any noise.
• Ocean County Sheriff Michael Mastronardy said his officers saw 50 drones coming off the coast moving along at various speeds but couldn’t detect them with their equipment because they didn’t emit heat the way drones normally do… something the department hadn’t experienced before. One of his officers, Kevin Fennessy, explained that they were using FlightRadar24 and other flight tracking software, but the equipment wasn’t able to produce any data about the objects. Still, he said, “I do think it’s some sort of drone out there, We saw a couple, one flying low at us that was coming basically straight on and stopped. Did a 180, went back, did a 180, and then took a big loop around us, probably out here in the bay to go south of us.” The sheriff’s officers described the drones as 3 or 4 feet long, twice the size of those used by their department. Another law enforcement agency reported one as large as 8 feet long.
• John Ferguson of Saxon Aerospace, a military drone manufacturer, says the crafts’ movements are beyond commercial technology, are apparently coordinated rather than individually controlled, and would require sophisticated navigation systems. (We’ll explore the military-grade drone possibilities in a moment.)
• The FBI said it received more than 3,000 reports (between November 18 and December 18), averaging 92 sightings daily across six states.

Other First-Hand Accounts

• Evan Cutler, a New Jersey TV host, writer and photographer, said, “Who knows what it was, but it was not the drone you see people fly. It was the size of a school bus… literally the size of a two-car garage. It’s getting closer and closer. At first I think it’s a plane or helicopter, then it’s hovering right over the woods … and it’s a drone, literally 40 feet by 40 feet wide.”
• Garrett Openshaw and Collin Lynch, working at the Asbury Hotel near the beach, reported seeing a dozen or more sedan-sized drones with red, white, and green lights flying in formation toward shore from the open ocean. “It was hard to tell if they were just shooting a movie or something,” said Lynch in the popular vacation town of Asbury Park.
• Cassie Miller of nearby Monroe reported seeing two drones and captured them in a phone video. “One is closer and one’s further away, and then the second one turns the exact same corner, like following it, 30 or 40 seconds apart. Then I saw two more and they all turned the same corner. I think it was five or six total … You heard a hum and they were not even that high up. Maybe 200 or 300 ft.”

The verdict? Based on those testimonies, the objects described above are not the store-bought, commercial drones that are so popular nowadays. They’re too big, and they fly in coordinated patterns with each other. That leaves just two possibilities.

#1—The Biggest and Best Drones in the World (UAVs)

The biggest and best drones in world today, technically referred to as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), are used not just for military purposes (spying, killing, and destroying), but also for lots of peaceful purposes, including emergency response, infrastructure inspection, search and rescue, and product delivery. The biggest of these premium drones don’t hover or move back and forth and sideways; they fly straight ahead like an airplane, as shown below.

And the biggest drones today that hover and maneuver like helicopters? Well, they look like helicopters.

So, if the world’s biggest and best drones today (the ones that are publicly known) don’t fit with credible eyewitness testimony, that narrows our focus to two possibilities. Either…

• UAVs are being developed by someone on Earth, somewhere, who has technologies that are much further advanced than what’s publicly known… and they’re working in secret. Or else…
• There are technologies that take us out of our comfort zone—technologies not of this world.

#2—Technologies Not of this World

Extraterrestrials and UFOs (their spacecraft) have been dead and buried by mainstream science and US government since the 1960s, when Erich von Daniken was writing books about ancient astronauts. Books like that (and modern TV shows like Ancient Apocalypse) tend to knock a lot of us out of our comfort zone… especially if we’re mainstream scientists or US government officials who toe the party line.

Given the growing evidence (like the recent drone activity over New Jersey), maybe it’s time to resurrect the notion of extraterrestrial influences on our world—if not as a certainty, then at least as a possibility.

We might go a step further to assume that—if they are indeed ETs—their presence would most likely be, by and large, friendly visits to our world. Making that assumption is the right thing to do, after all. As a rule, it’s customary throughout most of the world to offer a friendly greeting to visitors.

Finally, if we get a chance to communicate with those other-worldly visitors, we might mention to them that it’s also customary throughout most of our world to bring along a nice little gift when you come to visit. 👽

As further clarification, that original article inspired a very insightful comment from a reader—a gift of sorts—which I’ll add below:

runcic says:
(2024 December 30 at 4:46 pm)

The accounts, so far, show that these UFOs have access to enormous amounts of energy in a small volume, and greater intelligence than we are accustomed to. I label them as UFOs, not to equate them to previous sightings, (although they may have the same cause), but because they are unidentified, that is, not identified with any object of which we know; they are flying, that is moving through the atmosphere though not by the use of any laws of fluid dynamics of which we know; they are objects, since that is the word we attach to something to which we cannot attach any other label.

They have enormous energy as they can change direction so suddenly; they have enormous intelligence to be able to harness and control such energy and to control the object and to co-ordinate the movement of many objects.

I liken the unknown, unidentified, nature of this outbreak to that of the Hydesville, New York State, knockings in March 1848. That used energy in a way unknown to us, and had power, knowledge, and the intelligence to use it, beyond any known at the time, or now. The present show of energy and intelligence exceeds, by far, that demonstrated then.

The knockings were, within a month, identified to be caused by a murdered spirit, in the lower levels of heaven, who wanted revenge upon his murderer. There was much discussion of the phenomenon over the following fifty years until, in 1904, the information from the murdered spirit was verified by agreeing with information discovered from other sources.

This was an attempt by God, or his emissaries (which is, ultimately, the same thing) to show that knowledgable, intelligent consciousness continues after the death of the physical body.

The present phenomenon is to show that there is power and intelligence far beyond our current knowledge.

I opine that, as during the last thousands of years, we will fail to accept that we are puny compared to what we could be, and shall be, if only we stopped defying God. The sightings will gradually diminish, without any explanation, although Governments, or other agencies, may exploit them for their own purposes.

This is not a supernatural explanation. Nothing is supernatural; only beyond our current knowledge.

#05 — Ethereals, Extraterrestrials, the Source, and the Shadow

This is one of the many gems sprinkled throughout Chris Bledsoe’s book, UFO of God:

“If it could be said that they have a personality, it is playful, thinks far beyond our intelligence, and abhors all things base and cruel.” (ch26)

He’s referring to the ETs (extraterrestrials) whom he’s been encountering with some regularity since his first traumatic UFO (unidentified flying object) encounter in 2007.

Five years later (2012) he also befriended an ethereal being whom he calls “The Lady,” who gave him hope and reassurance.

Those first five years, though, were a bit of a nightmare for Chris—not because of the ETs themselves but because of his Christian community’s fear and contempt toward the ETs (‘the devil’s work’)… and, by extension, toward Chris and his family. Most of their friends ostracized the family and mocked of his kids in school (even some teachers).

That pretty much sums up the challenges we humans face when trying to establish meaningful contact with refined, intelligent life throughout the cosmos: “it abhors all things base and cruel”… things that we’ve come to take for granted here on Earth, even in our religions.

Chris also encountered “shadow people,” who seemed to be dark helpers of the more refined beings, and who sometimes accompanied Chris to private meetings with The Lady. On the first occasion (Easter Day, 2012) several of those shadow people (he’s not sure how many there were) woke him up at 3am and escorted him outside, where several weird things happened:

• The shadow people gave him a living ball of fur (“like a legless, headless chihuahua”), which he put in the dog’s pen.
• A raging bull charged him and passed right through him as though to imply that dangerous things on Earth only look physical and real, and appearances can be deceiving.
• Then a beautiful, glowing woman materialized and hovered a few feet above the ground, flooded in a circle of light. Chris had grown increasing depressed and physically sick since that first UFO encounter five years earlier, and The Lady promised that things would soon get better for him, she would always be with him, and he had important work to do. She said the ball of fur represents humanity—directionless, clueless, immobile—but that would have to change, and Chris would play a part in the change. (ch14)

“The Lady” soon began to stream healing life-energies into Chris, curing his severe arthritis and his Crohn’s disease, enhancing his empathy (making him highly sensitive to people’s feelings and sufferings), and making him a channel or vehicle through which she could heal other suffering people in his presence. Before Chris performs a healing, he says he has to be in a focused, receptive state of mind, then his body starts to bristle as the life-energy from The Lady passes through him. He says it’s basically healing with focused prayer and a pure heart. (ch24)

Various experts befriended Chris and his family, were impressed by his ET encounters, then helped the family get through the darkest and unhappiest five-year period of their lives (2007-2012). They include these four men:

• Timothy E Taylor of NASA showed Chris two extraterrestrial metals—thin, light, flexible, each the size of a postage stamp—and claimed they were 50 million years old. As he placed one in each of Chris’s hands, Chris felt a powerful surge of life-energy, convincing Taylor that Chris had an unusually strong natural affinity or resonance with the ETs. (It was a test given to other contactees.) Tim also advised Chris to sing a familiar song silently to himself when in the presence of ETs so they couldn’t read his mind. (Silent mind-to-mind communication is normal for ETs and spirits, but we humans harbor “hidden,” rollercoaster thoughts and feelings that put a crimp in our communications with them.)
• Hal Povenmire, also of NASA, was the biggest source of validation for the Bledsoe family, offering “no-strings-attached support” during the dark years when they were being shunned by their Christian friends. Hal spoke of structures on the moon. “There are buildings up there, big ones, and we didn’t build them… and they’re ancient.” (That quote by Povenmire wasn’t in Chris’s book but was shared later, online, by his son Ryan.)
• Col. John B Alexander, a discerning, long-time UFO expert, became a believer in Chris’s experiences one night when Chris could feel a UFO’s presence (“I think they’re here.”) moments before one appeared and streaked like a ball of light across the sky. That was Col. Alexander’s second actual UFO encounter, and he said it left an indelible impression. Chris suggested that these other-worldly encounters and communications are made possible by “human consciousness,” and Col. Alexander agreed.
• Jim Semivan from the CIA also provided some solace to the family, assuring Chris that contactees’ lives typically take a positive turn 12 years after their initial contact… giving the family hope that their problems could start to alleviate around 2019.

These validations and reassurances by officials from NASA, the CIA, and the military suggest that these agencies might be relaxing their grip on other-worldly secrets, which they’ve held tightly since the 1950s.

If those long-held secrets about extraterrestrial and spiritual realities are starting to be shared with the public, then it’s thanks in large part to the relentless research by leading ET experts like Dr Steven Greer with his Disclosure Project, and Linda Moulton Howe with her deep-delving books and articles about ET presence and government cover-ups.

ETs wield incredible power, and being powerful anywhere in the cosmos just means that they live according to the values and motivations of the source, or God. They resonate with each other in truth, trust, empathy, and other noble attitudes. Those attitudes are wrapped up in the life-energy that streams perpetually from the source and fills the cosmos. The more they can resonate with those source motivations, the more powerful they are… a simple, basic fact of life everywhere. (What we perceive on Earth as “power” with our fists, fortunes, and firearms is mostly an illusion that we leave behind on Earth when we die and resume living in finer spiritual worlds.)

By the time that rich life-energy streaming from the source reaches Earth, much of it gets deflected by the deception, suspicion, selfishness, and other painful dramas that are always at play in our world. Across the millennia, a spiritual shadow has developed around the planet, festering with dark attitudes that spin off the Earth and have nowhere else to go in the cosmos, so they get stuck around our world.

So… when ETs want to interact with us humans on Earth, they have to enter the shadow, where they encounter our fears, frustrations, and hostile intentions. Visiting Earth, for ETs, is probably like us venturing into an unfamiliar forest that’s home to lots of poisonous plants, insects, and snakes. We might want to recruit one of the local natives as a guide.

I suspect that’s the reason the ETs recruit “shadow people” as helpers. They live in Earth’s shadow and know how to navigate the twists and turns of troubled human thinking.

Hopefully that broadstroke look at ethereals, ETs, the source, and the shadow provides a hint at what really seems to be going on when those folks “out there” come to call.

———————

So, about the pictures….

These are Chris Bledsoe’s explanations of what he’s experienced…

(plus a lot of speculation on my part, based on what I’ve learned from ET experts over the years). 

1 – Extraterrestrials and shadow people

Let’s start at the top right. Chris says that this is one of the first drawings he made shortly after his traumatic 2007 UFO encounter. It shows an ET (background, light with red eyes), a shadow being (dark with black eyes), and what seems to be a hybrid ET-shadow being (dark with red eyes).

According to Chris, the two red eyes blink independently in a mechanical fashion…

… which might suggest that the ET is wearing some sort of tight-fitting spacesuit, allowing it to perceive our material world while protected from the harsh (mental) conditions of the shadow. It might be one of the refined little beings called “zetas” or “essassanis” who seem to turn gray when venturing to Earth’s shadow unprotected.

2 – An ET

Chris says, “I painted this in 2009, one of the little Angelic beings that took me for nearly four hours and brought me back with no more Crohn’s Disease. Its 18 years later now and we continue to interact now more than ever.”

(This is one of the refined ETs—probably a zeta or essassani—who visit Earth while staying out of the shadow… sticking to a subtler dimension while interacting with us humans. When they do this, they work with us when we’re in a sort of dream state, whether we’re sleeping or in a meditative or “daydreaming” state of mind. At those time, we—our real selves—transcend our physical constraints. We can pass through walls and move instantly from one place to another.)

3 – The Lady of Light

Following is a summary of a hypnotic regression of Chris guided by Barbara Lamb, June 5, 2018. (You can listen to that session or read the entire transcript presented by his son Ryan Bledsoe at the “spreaker” website.)

The Lady had appeared or manifested in front of Chris on Easter Day 2012, visiting him at home (as mentioned earlier). Now, during the regression, he remembers when he visited her a year later, Easter Day 2013. This second meeting is a more profound experience than the first one.

That Easter date suggests (as many of us believe) that there’s a vast Christian community of spirits working with our world from finer realms, offering humanity guidance and support. They apparently work with refined (but denser, like us) ETs, who can take a more “hands-on” approach in their positive support of humanity.

He’s sleeping alone on the sofa in the study. He awakens and sees a hole opening in the ceiling, emitting light. He rises, horizontal, through the doorway, sees the attic, the beams in the roof. Continues rising, seeing the trees in the yard. His body becomes vertical as he’s drawn ever upward.

I’m not sure if ET encounters like this are out-of-body experiences (in which the physical body remains sleeping on the bed while the spirit rises), or if the physical body simply becomes “less dense” in sort of space-time manipulation so that it can pass through physical structures. I haven’t researched ET “abductions.” In any case, here’s a condensed version of Chris’s remembered experience.

The energy, it’s a wonderful feeling. I can feel this beautiful presence, this wonderful presence of love. It looks like a door of light, and I feel it. It’s a wonderful, loving feeling. Voices are telling me not to be afraid. I’ll be fine. They’re here to guide me. I see these three figures. They’re about seven feet tall and beautiful and glowing in a pale, bluish-white color, and loving, standing in the light. Their eyes are glowing beautiful blue. They’re the guardians. The angels. The same ones who came when I was sick. I’ve never forgotten that. That’s how I know they’re always here. They’re made of light, and I hear this wonderful singing. A choir, singing and praising love. It’s vibrating from my soul. They’ve come for me for the Mother. The Mother wants to see me. Not my mother. THE Mother, the Love. I can see clearly far away, out at the stars and the heavens. It’s all beautiful in love. Then we come to a dark desert area, and I can see the light far ahead. I hear the three guides behind me talking to each other. I don’t hear what they’re saying. I just hear this beautiful language, gorgeous, beautiful, like a choir. It’s permeating my being, but I don’t understand it. As we get closer, I can see this beautiful, bluish light from around the bend, and there’s a change in temperature. It’s just beautiful, warm, and lovely. And as I get closer, it’s her. It’s her again. It’s the Mother, it’s The Lady. She’s calling me back. She’s beautiful. The three guardians bow to her and leave. They’re all glowing, beautiful beyond words. She’s beautiful, amazing. Her gown she’s wearing, it’s a sparkly, glowing, beautiful, white, flowing gown. It looks like all the stars in the sky in this beautiful silky gown, dressed from her neck to her feet. She looks totally human, early thirties, beautiful… she’s love. And I see tears. I see tears in her eyes.

(Chris has been crying with awe frequently throughout the hypnosis session, but now he’s almost sobbing as he talks.)

The energy she’s emitting, this light, is going through my body and causing me to tremble. I’m not afraid, it’s just being in her presence. She’s telling me that she brought me back to put secrets there, secrets that I would not know until the time is ready. I have to stay my course, that I can never waver, that my life may be short, but the reward will be great. She will always be here for me. But I have to stay the course. But she’s always with me, and she’ll always be there. She and her angels will never let me out of their sight ever, and that they’re guiding me and I have to trust what I know. I have to trust. And she’s telling me that she’ll place people within my path, that we’re meant to be together, that she’s guiding them as well, and that we will come together at the right time, and that all will be revealed in my lifetime or at least my family’s lifetime….”

Incidentally, Chris wrote in his book:

Around Easter 2026 there will be the end of the old way and the beginning of the new way. (ch16)

Timeframes are hard to pin down in the cosmos, since time is an illusion. Still, that prediction is good to keep in mind in these tenuous times. There may be a day of reckoning coming soon. That quote from the book suggests to me that big things might start happening as early as this coming Easter (April 20, 2025), based on prophecies made last century.

The Garabandal prophecies of 1961 (updated in 2024) foresaw “a period of tribulation for the world during which a warning will be given to all mankind simultaneously…. If humanity fails to turn to the Lord (during a year’s time), there will be a fearful chastisement on a global scale.”

In other words, the world could be transformed around Easter next year (says Chris Bledsoe of Fayettevile NC, USA), but if that’s the case, then a year earlier all of humanity would first be given a warning (says Conchita Gonzales originally of Garabandal, Spain).

But, again, time as experienced on Earth is nebulous and challenging for other-worldly prophets like The Lady to pin down.

Closing note: If such a “warning given to all mankind simultaneously” is really going to happen, then it’ll probably involve either lots of ET and UFO sightings as experienced by Chris and as seen in the skies above New Jersey last year… or else lots of ITC contacts like the ones our INIT group experienced in the 1990s, in which finer spirit delivers important messages and images directly into our modern technologies (phones, TVs, computers….). Or, more likely, both scenarios could happen… lots of UFO sightings and lots of important information delivered to our technologies from finer spirit.

This Easter? Next Easter?…. We’ll see how things unfold.

#06 — God on Earth and God in Spirit Are Worlds Apart

According to other-worldly revelations (shared in Appendix 2)…

 Understanding the cosmic source that we call “God” comes naturally to spirits living in the finest realms (levels 5 through 7). To be alive is to be one with God… very simple, very true.

But here on Earth (level 1) we’ve forgotten about our intimacy with God, so we have to be reminded… especially by our religions.

How did we forget God? Early in life, our five senses took control of our conscious mind and flooded it with impressions of the noisy, flashy material world, and our innate understanding of God got buried deep in our subconscious mind.

How do religions remind us? All five major religions today acknowledge one God and could be considered “monotheistic,” despite a semantical glitch (that we explore in Appendix 1 after the article).

The different religions call the source:

• God (Christianity) 
• Allah (Islam) 
• Yahweh or YHWH (Judaism)
• Brahman or AUM (Hinduism)
• Universal Life Force or Nirvana (Buddhism)

When we dig to the core of all the major religions, we find that our religions agree with the finest spiritual beings in their understanding of God. First, a look at how bright beings beyond the Earth understand God.

Finer Spirits Understand God Clearly

Our INIT group received mind-boggling messages from refined spirits in the 1990s—communications that streamed into our world through computers, phones, radios, and TVs. After this article there are several of those contacts in Appendix 2. I highlighted the parts that describe God from their elevated point of view. I consider those contacts to be extremely accurate and reliable.

Meanwhile, here are a few excerpts that give us a good sense of how some of the brightest minds in the cosmos understand the source, or God, in terms we can understand:

1. the highest principle of life
2. the ultimate reality
3. the everything

Religions Understand God Clearly

At the core of every major religion there’s a simple collection of pure, comprehensive qualities of God that are not so different from the ones above:

1. Creative: the ultimate creator of the cosmos and all living things (or, more accurately, the central, creative force that is spread throughout the cosmos.)
2. Omnipresent: present everywhere at all times.
3. Omnipotent: possessing unlimited power to create and regulate the cosmos.
4. Omniscient: aware of everything in the cosmos, past, present, and future.
5. Transcendent and immanent: present and active within the cosmos, although beyond human comprehension.
6. Ultimate reality:  the fundamental truth behind the physical world and everything else.

So, God’s apparent role in the vast cosmos is to be and to provide the perfect, pure life-energy filled with infinite knowledge and vitality which becomes—which is—the cosmos… the “all-that-is.” Very simple… and at the same time infinitely complex.

Then, light beings and energy beings at levels 5, 6, and 7 begin to devise that life-energy (adjust its vibration) to shape and monitor the countless, superimposed dimensions, universes, and worlds that make up the cosmos. It’s all done by enormous power of thought. They apparently include the ones that our religions recognize as archangels and super deities. There are untold trillions of those light and energy beings that would probably look to us like coherent clouds of powerful consciousness… or balls of infinitely rich living light… or brilliant, multidimensional runcics.

So, this is apparently the “top-level management structure” of the cosmos:

• A source or God provides (or is) all of the raw material (in the form of pure, nonvibrating life-energy) that creates and sustains the entire cosmos. Then…
• Light beings and energy beings devise and use that rich life-energy (start it vibrating at different densities) to do the planning, organizing, and implementation of the structures and behaviors of all the dimensions, universes, and worlds.

Religions Also Embellish God

We humans like to clean up and dress nicely, wash and brush the family dog, decorate our homes, and so on…. It’s human nature to embellish things, including our understanding of God. Religious scholars down through the ages have described God and the finest spirits in ways that people can relate to, even if those embellishments start to veer away from the core. Here are some of the ways we’ve embellished the source to be more like us.

Three Abrahamic or western religions

• God/Allah/Yahweh revealed himself to Abraham.
• God/Allah/Yahweh is the source of ethical laws like the Ten Commandments, the Five Pillars, and halal/haram teachings (rules of right and wrong).
• God/Allah/Yahweh takes a personal interest in human affairs.
• Humans are made in God’s image.

Christianity

Note: While it’s well documented (and I have no doubt) that Jesus was an exceptional soul—a highly refined spirit—who chose a lifetime on Earth to help and support humanity, his lifetime experiences and his relationship with God have been embellished since his death:

• Just and judgmental: God punishes sin
• Merciful: God offers grace and pardon through faith in Jesus Christ
• Trinity: God is one being made up of three distinct persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit… in which “the Father” is God, the creator and sustainer.
• “The Son” is Jesus Christ, who became human and died to take on the punishment for human sins
• “The Holy Spirit” is God’s power and presence in the world (often symbolized as a dove)
• Revelation: God reveals Himself to humans and discloses knowledge and truth
• God reveals Himself through the Bible
• The life of Jesus Christ is considered the greatest revelation of God’s nature

Islam

• Fair, just, and judgmental: Allah judges everyone equally.
• Merciful and forgiving: Allah shows compassion and mercy, and forgives people.
• Controls the afterlife: Allah will resurrect all humans (restore life after they die).

Judaism

• Yahweh is self-determined and can intervene in human affairs, such as by performing miracles or answering prayers.
• Yahweh is a personal God who is faithful to his promises.
• Yahweh is a covenant-keeping God who desires to display his grace, mercy, and wrath (anger or indignation).
• Yahweh interacts with humans and responds to their behavior.
• Yahweh wants to be known as the God who listens to his people and brings about liberation.

Hinduism

• Hindus stick pretty close to the core understanding of God with their concept of Brahman. Embellishments are assigned to their many deities, not to Brahman itself.

Buddhism

• Buddhists also maintain a pretty clear understanding of the source:
• Universal life force is a single, all-pervading life-energy that animates and controls all living things.
• Nirvana is a transcendent state in which there is no suffering, desire, or sense of self. (That might be interpreted as a conscious oneness with the perfect source and its pure, non-vibrating life-energy, which involves detaching from worldly distractions and imperfections.)

Religions Sometimes Falsify God

In extreme cases, religious leaders and their believers try to use God to justify their anti-God behavior (spreading deception, fear, hatred, conquest, and other dark motivations). A few examples:

• “God-fearing” is an oxymoron. There’s nothing about God to stir fear, but everything to stir awe and wonder.
• God taking sides in human conflicts and contests is also a misnomer. Finer spirit throughout the cosmos is repelled by the dramas that we take for granted here on Earth. If people get spiritual support for aggressive or brutal behavior, then it probably comes from dark spirits who are stuck in Earth’s shadow… what The Seven have called “the lower levels of heaven.”
• God preferring one religion over another. Again, competition isn’t one of God’s motivations. Two competing employees, two rival football teams, two proselytizing religions, and other earthy dramas like these have nothing to do with the source, which simply continues to spread love, good will, harmony, and other fine and perfect motivations that we humans can choose to accept or reject as we partake in Earth’s dramas.

So, that’s a condensed look at how God on Earth and God in Spirit are really the same, even if through our embellishments of God they become worlds apart.

Appendix 1: One God (Monotheism)

While the western religions (Christianity, Islam, and Judaism) clearly acknowledge that there is one God who is responsible for the entire cosmos, religious scholars sometimes say that the eastern religions are not “monotheistic.” Buddhists, they say, believe in no God and Hindus believe in many Gods. That’s just a problem of semantics.

• Hinduism also acknowledges one God—Brahman—that’s at the center of everything, and Hindus simply go a step further by naming lots of highly refined beings who emerge from that central source: Brahma the creator, Vishnu the preserver and Shiva the destroyer… Ganesha, Rama, Hanuman, Lakshmi, Durga, Kali, Saraswati…. These brilliant beings are akin to the many angels and archangels of the three western (Abrahamic) religions.
• Buddhism looks more at the essence of the source (the universal life force, a sort of vitalizing life-energy), rather than regarding the source as a “being” that emits or controls that life-energy—a semantic difference that finer beings also acknowledge.

So, yes, all genuine religions, even Buddhism, believe in the essential nature of the source. (As you read the first message below, note the similarities to Buddhist docetrine.)

Appendix 2: ITC Messages from Finer Beings

ITC or instrumental transcommunication is the use of technologies to get in touch with the worlds of spirit. Pure ITC is the way to get the purest, least filtered information into our world from finer realms. That’s how these messages were delivered to us late last century.

Many of you have a false impression about us. Unfortunately, this is often the case with your mediums, who recognize only part of us. Also, there are a great number of people who claim to have a direct connection to God, Yahweh or Jehovah. Some ITC experimenters believe this. It is not correct. Many Earth people mistakenly perceive God as a person or an individual entity. God is not a person, but the highest principle of life, as well as the absolute reality. He, or it, is the absolute unity and the absolute, unlimited and all-encompassing Universe. As a limitless entity, the universe can never be one of the creative individuals who are numerous in the cosmos. Nor is it tenable that there is a single Son of God for the entire cosmos. Jesus Christ, today a part of Pescator, has never described himself as such. Since God, ultimately, is everything, and everything is God, it makes no difference which religion you belong to. There is only one universal truth which can be found through the path of decency. For those who follow eternal principles, the doors to freedom are open. — Ishkumar, one of The Seven (via computer)

The contacts of spirit beings with earth are only a partial aspect of ITC. They should serve as proof that you will live forever and have a higher calling. Ethereal beings in finer realms are not particularly interested in contacts between dimensions, but they support it because they can bring man closer to the realization of eternal life and the principle or being that you call God, Yahweh or Nirvana. — Technician, one of The Seven (via telephone)

We have often given you the real purpose of ITC contacts: Mankind at the End Time should be led back to the principle. Light and darkness shall unite and form a whole again. What people experience now is not the actual beginning of the apocalypse, but only the first symptoms. — Technician, one of The Seven (via computer)

We also got a description of God from Swejen Salter, who, since her death in 1987 has been the project leader of Timestream Spirit Group, who delivered all of these remarkable messages and images to our world late last century. Swejen here is apparently referring to the physical universe(s) at level 1 in the opening diagram:

God, the Principal, the Creator or whatever else you wish to call him is everywhere. He is in the universe and the universe is in Him. However, the Universe and therefore God are two entities. (The states of) being and non-being. Matter and nonmatter. Scientists have often tried to explain what matter is and I believe I can spare myself another explanation. Nonmatter is not to be compared to anti-matter but is really what we describe as soul or spirit. Every living creature, even an amoeba or a bacillus, has a soul….”  — Swejen Salter, project leader of Timestream (via telephone)
