Channeled Oration Transcripts of 'The Creator'

There are parallels between my personal transcendental communication case chronology and the occurrences chronicled with the incidents described in this book published in 1956, the year of my birth.

—Mark Russell Bell

 

 

This article presents excerpts from a book that incorporates some verbatim transcripts of what today is called physical 'channeling' ('Deep Trance'/'Overshadowing'/'Total Takeover').  The transcendental communication messages were experienced by the group of researchers that is the subject of the recent blog article with transcripts of 'automatic writing.'  The book has a denialist social consciousness-oriented title, When Prophecy Fails, (1956) and was written by Leon Festinger, Henry W. Riecken and Stanley Schachter.  The individual who was chosen as the 'medium' or 'channel' for these messages in 1954 has the name 'Bertha Blatsky' in the book and is described as "a tall, robust, powerful-looking woman in her early forties."  The authors didn't attempt to compile a complete transcript record of all the channeled communications that occurred during this particular case chronology so readers should be aware of this while considering potential meanings and interpretations to 'make sense' of these passages.  The authors explained their piecemeal approach with these statements:

The material we gathered, therefore, varies in accuracy from verbatim transcriptions or written documents on the one hand to a few reports that are simply summaries of the highlights of very long meetings.  For events before the beginning of direct observation we have had to rely largely on retrospective material.

 

We have quoted directly from documents and firsthand tape recordings, but otherwise have used the direct quotation form only when the observer either had an opportunity to make written notes on a conversation within a few minutes of its occurrence, or when he made an especial point of remembering an important statement verbatim and putting it into his record with assurances to that effect.

 

This is Article 19 of the current series of posts that commenced with the May 17 article.  I've also written in journal blog articles about being confronted with the complicated turn of events that has resulted with the emergence of 'The Devil' ('God Alter Ego') as described in "Chronicling A New Initiation to 'Good' and 'Evil'" (May 13).  When I began writing journal entries in early 2021, I had no idea that this was going to provide a personal documentary account of the shocking emergence of the 'God Alter Ego' usually called 'The Devil.'  I'd previously considered 'The Devil' as a name for metaphorically 'bad' or 'evil' circumstances and/or superstitions as originating in civilizations during the ancient past.  The first indications or 'precursor' incidents that I witnessed include bizarre 'solar plexus' words and utterances and slight mishaps such as a knife strangely slipping and cutting one of my fingertips while chopping vegetables.  Beginning with the noncommercial case study website at testament.org in 1997, I became a metaphysical journalist serving as an 'everyman' or 'surrogate' for other people to expand their consciousness or understanding of metaphysical and spiritual aspects of life on Earth and in the ascended realm of existence.  Before the publication of the book, my occupations had been highly sociable so at first I was completely unprepared for the witnessed response of journalists and individual readers to TESTAMENT.  As a metaphysical author, I was ignored and concealed or 'covered up' throughout the news media.  The Message Giver's Gifts when shared by the message bringer had resulted with exile once again. 

 

In 2022, no matter how a 'metaphysically uninitiated' person wants to describe the state of contemporary living on our Earth plane, what is considered 'news' shows a preponderance of selfishness, intolerance, outright 'antisocial behavior,' 'military programming' among worldwide leaders, 'corporate thinking' and 'materialist values,' especially among wealthy and privileged individuals who actually have done little for others and planet ecology to be held in such reverence by the corporate news media — one of the pathetic cultural traditions that have literally become intrinsic as bizarre as that may seem to any 'spiritually aware' person (all aspects of life being 'relative' in relation to comparisons made between any two individual life experiences).  As an experiencer of transcendental communication from 'The Creator' (often referred to as 'M' in my journal blog articles), at present the psychic phenomena is manifesting/expressing a 'negative' or 'adverse'/'contemptuous' disdain.  It makes little difference that I am an 'everyman' figure as author of the noncommercial nonfiction case study book TESTAMENT and 'chosen one' or 'message bringer' of the 'Message Giver.'  The individual people who are the subjects for When Prophecy Fails with their puzzling transcendental communication experiences show noticeable parallels with my own predicament and what I've described as "the shocking emergence of the 'God Alter Ego' usually called 'The Devil'" in the May 17 article that commenced this current series: "A New Paranormal Initiation to 'God' and 'The Devil' Is Chronicled by Mark Russell Bell (with Updates)'".  Among news headlines today are environmental warnings, "UK records 1st-ever 40 C temperature" and "Global extinction threat may be much higher than previously thought" (UPI News); an example of an insensitive and inciting headline, "Confederate flags pop up on West Virginia high schoolers' cars after fellow student calls out use of the N-word"; a superstition-oriented headline, "Woman Breaks Down How Scary Angels Actually Are"; difficulties related to 'entertainment trance' among countless people, "SATAn hack can steal data directly from your SATA cable" and "Don McLean Debunks Long-Held Interpretation of 'American Pie' Lyrics"; and examples of news media promotion of nationalism over diplomacy, "WAR IN UKRAINE: Ukrainian Forces Show How Drones And Artillery Units Work Together To Blow Up Russian Forces" and "Final act of empire? U.S., Israel and the Saudis now heading for war with Iran."

 

The following passage is an excerpt from my June 27 journal blog entry. 

 

Metaphysically, this phase of 'The Devil' makes everything seem indefinite so I'm chronicling concrete aspects of my experiences.  One conclusion that all of this makes evident is that the relationship with 'All That Is' requires a person to interact with God in a thoughtful way all the time (as I do, obviously in my case).  With each decision, consider 'will this be the choice contributing to God being 'happy'?  Think about it.  If 'The Only One' isn't truly Happy with us humans, can anyone of us be truly 'happy.'  This is something I now reflect about all the time — the importance of being in an intellectually and emotionally appropriate state of living in the Presence — and 'presents' bestowed on one that are intended for each of us to benevolently share in mindful ways with one another to return this plane to the state and conditions reflecting the Domain of The God Force.  Each one of us who behaves in a responsible and emotionally correct manner provides examples for others.  The realities of a corporate social order are also involved with an individual person's projected expectations of how other people/units of consciousness are going to behave.  If these other people are metaphysically and spiritually knowledgeable, everything becomes simpler.  I'm reminded about how commercial 'New Age' authors have been known to mention the basic human choice between manifesting love or fear.  ("OR HATE")  ('no' tap [which I interpret as meaning 'yes' during this 'The Devil' phase])  It's 6:14 p.m. and somebody is passing by outside with a 'rap' Pop song blasting.  Once again, I'm overhearing a voice expressing in a necessary way to be materialistically 'commercial' while there are continuous loud percussive noises blaring simultaneously.  What ever happened to all the happy and cheerfully positive hit songs that seem so characteristic of previous decades.  This is the type of occurrence that results with myself contemplating 'parallel' worlds/realities/dimensions/universes — and realizing that intellectually earthly circumstances are completely comprehensible and explicable on the basis of my documented experiences.

The following passage is an excerpt from my December 18, 2021 journal blog entry. 

 

When I was trying to recognize what had brought the negative symbol from M, one of the synchronicity advertisements seen at an Internet featured in large letters the word RESPECT and I wondered if this was something of concern for M or perhaps my noticing the word was just something coincidental and not particularly relevant.  Obviously, in some way being respectful should always be a concern for everybody.  Online there are instances that seem to always be noticeable of some commenters expressing something in a 'mean' way that seems to indicate some social conditions of the current epoch.  One can dismiss all of the meanness as the latest reincarnation of 'the peanut gallery' yet what I think is being reflected is exasperation at not finding something more 'interesting' online.

 
The following passage is an excerpt from my August 17, 2021 journal blog entry.

 

Last Wednesday, while feeling frustrated once more about my health conditions I remembered such philosophies expressed by personalities in the ascended realm of human existence as (1) “We propose to work with you in some essential respects of contradiction and contrariety” (article) and (2) "Unless I make the same efforts as I do now, to secure for myself another such furlough from Nature's Law, Koothoomi will vanish and may become a Mr. Smith or an innocent Babu, when his leave expires.  There are men who become such mighty beings, there are men among us who may become immortal during the remainder of the Rounds, and then take their appointed place among the highest Chohans, the Planetary conscious 'Ego-Spirits.'  Of course the Monad 'never perishes whatever happens'" (Metaphysical Articles blog posts: A, B).  As a result of channeled sentiments such as these and others (for example: 3), I had to confess as I knew my thoughts are Known by M, the challenges of Earth life made me feel that the 'God Force' was Loving in Plan and Creation and Gifts yet Love for someone like myself (or perhaps any Earth person) with such a vague 'personality' as being so hapless in fulfilling expectations—as author, member of society and experiencer of a chronic illness (IBS)—could only pertain on some inconceivable Philosophical Level beyond mortal comprehension.  Readers should remember specific words used by channeled entities are a way of articulating immense and involved aspects of a soul's existence throughout eternity and are influenced by all of the immediate circumstances at the moment a discourse is offered.  Someone in a predicament such as mine will at times consider even obviously baseless fears and potentialities, such as I did years ago with considering 'Perhaps in being the reincarnated god-king-priest bel-Marduk and being the author at the focal point of the Bell and Michael patterns linking paranormal case chronologies; fulfilling Nostradamus, Edgar Cayce and numerous channeled entities prophecies, this might even make M jealous or make me a symbolic figure upon whom to vent frustration with humanity (due to collective materialistic assumed imperatives and lack of metaphysical awareness).'  Authors express one's mentality and perspectives at a certain moment during their lives.  

Today—as with the 'Bel-Marduk' (latest article about this subject) of some lost ancient historical chronology—I recognize that my autobiographical descriptions of life experiences results with a contemporary so-called 'mysterium.'  Beyond my serving as an 'everyman'/'surrogate' for readers, I—just as everyone else—hope and pray that 'The God Force' is able to perceive reasons to 'Love' me as one of countless individual 'units of consciousness' each having a spark of the Divine as an aspect of one's 'soul.'  I further realize that seemingly adverse incidents can have positive results — for example, a recent car accident that I experienced has resulted with my beginning to go on walks to the nearest supermarket.  This seems to be beneficial to improving my symptoms of 'Chronic Fatigue Disorder' arising from my IBS digestion health concerns (in addition to other aspects of my health regimen attempting to recuperate from my chronic illness symptoms).  In my older and wiser years I realize that Love is more than an emotional feeling that one can wonder about while listening to a song on MTV or "Saturday Night Live" during the most frivolous years of one's youth, it is also a quality of life.  (Rolling Stones examples: 1, 2, 3)

An example of the complexity of one's choices during this current phase of 'The Devil' 'God Alter Ego' was recognized this morning when I called my twin brother Mike.  He'd informed me about the passing of Mickey Rooney Jr. (eldest son of the actor that set in motion the circumstances that resulted with me becoming a talent agent prior to becoming a press agent [movie publicist] and finally, to coin a phrase, a 'poltergeist agent' or metaphysical author/blogger) — Mickey Jr. being one of my numerous acquaintances in life being yet another instance of 'The Michael Pattern.'  During our conversation, my brother Mike affirmed that he'd recently been hired to work on two new public relations campaigns for a tourism account and for a movie industry account.  I reminded him that each decision one makes during this 'phase' needs to be considered in relation to the circumstances for 'The Only One.'  Any materialistic success of the moment could result in further lack of appropriate emotions and respect for 'The God Force' — the current 'God Alter Ego' Being 'The Devil.'  'God is Love' was a typical expression of the preceding 'phase' now past.  As I've reported in previous blog articles, 'the Michael pattern' is noticeable in such cases as Nostradamus, John Dee, the Fox Sisters associated with the Spiritualism Movement, Madame Blavatsky, Edgar Cayce, Guy and Edna Ballard, Leslie Flint, JZ Knight, Mark Probert, and the 'Messages from Michael' case.  The Archangel Michael is the archetype for an angelic Force interacting with mankind throughout the ages. 

As is noticeable with other authentic channeling cases ("Channeling Cases - Articles and Videos Links Index"), there are parallels between my personal transcendental communication case chronology and the occurrences chronicled in When Prophecy Fails.  The following excerpts are presented in the same chronological order as presented in When Prophecy Fails, taking place after the occurrences and messages chronicled in the previous blog profile article "Transcendental Communication about Earth Life, Planets as 'Planes,' and the Omniverse".  The people identified in the book as 'Marian Keech' and 'Thomas Armstrong' are actually known to be named Dorothy Martin and Charles Laughead.

 

The publicity release that Thomas Armstrong mailed to "American Editors and Publishers" on August 30 [1954] was an important move for the believers personally, since it represented their first attempt to "tell the world"; but its practical, social effect was disappointing.  Apparently not even one of the more than fifty recipients published the announcement or requested further information.


The second dispatch was addressed to the same audience and signed by Dr. Armstrong.  The letter consisted of a single-page synopsis of a "cosmic play" in which "we are all actors on the world stage" and "We are also the audience and know not the plot."

 

 

It was apparently this second dispatch which led to the story in the Lake City Herald on September 23.  A reporter telephoned Mrs. Keech for an interview and was invited to call at her house.  She received him graciously and willingly devoted between two and three hours to answering his questions and showing him the verbatim messages in her several notebooks.

 

 

Dr. Armstrong actually signed and sent the press releases, but Mrs. Keech must have agreed to their  composition. 

 

 

Two or three other newspapers picked up the story from the Lake City Herald but none of them displayed it prominently or attempted to follow it up.

 

There was no excitement, no fervor in her [Mrs. Keech's] manner, but almost a belle indifférence to the awful possibility of world destruction that she was discussing.

 

Up to early November, we have had to depend upon documents, upon the recall of events by the participants, and upon material supplied, at a later date, by persons who had some acquaintance with what had happened in the movement but who were not intentionally observing it.  Beginning in early November we arranged to have observers join the movement and gather data while participating.


We know that during October and November Marian was constantly receiving messages from Sananda and other Guardians in the higher spiritual densities.

 

 

Although both Mrs. Keech and Dr. Armstrong believed that they would receive their orders sometime during the meeting of the 23rd, neither apparently had any idea what the orders might be or in what form, or through what messenger they might be transmitted. 

 

 

[On Nov, 23]  After perhaps twenty minutes more of complete, tense silence, Bertha Blatsky, who was seated on the couch with her head thrown back and her eyes closed, began to breathe very deeply in short, sighing breaths.  She continued, almost panting, and interspersing an occasional low moan for perhaps two minutes, and then began to gasp "I got the words, I got the words" over and over again.  Her heavy breathing continued at a more rapid rate, and she began to sob.  Within a few moments Dr. Armstrong and Mrs. Keech had crossed the room to assist her.  They helped her stretch out on the couch, where Dr. Armstrong felt her pulse and, satisfied, motioned that she should be left alone.  Mrs. Keech sat next to the couch, but said not a word; and the rest of the gathering sat rooted to their chairs in uneasy silence.

 

Bertha's panting and sighing became louder, turning into great, racking sobs, followed by swift, lip-quivering inhalation, all interspersed with breathless phrases: "I got the words . . ."  Then, "I am the Lord thy God . . . thou shalt . . . have no other . . . thou shalt have no other gods . . . before me."  Her eyes closed, her whole body quivering with emotion she struggled, pantingly through the First Commandment again, and then fell briefly silent.

 

After a brief interval Bertha began to speak again, haltingly, painfully, with many pauses: "This is Sananda," she gasped, "Sananda speaks, Sananda speaks.  I am Sananda, I am Sananda.  These are my sibets, my precious sibets . . ."  She broke off suddenly with a shriek, a cry of pain, and began to protest: "Oh no, not me, not me, He can't mean me . . . [a pause] . . . I give you my sibets [students] . . . oh, no, he can't mean me, oh no."  Her voice trailed off into moans as Mrs. Keech sped to her side, loudly and clearly repeating: "Oh yes, he does, Bertha.  Yes, Bertha, he does mean you."  Turning halfway toward the rest of the group she added: "I had a message today that you were to take over the sibets.  Yes, that's just what he means."


Bertha Blatsky, married to a Lake City fireman, had once been a beautician but was currently employed as a clerk.  She had been born in Poland, but raised in Iowa.  She had attended Catholic schools, married when she was about nineteen, and remained faithful to her religious tenets until she was perhaps twenty-eight or twenty-nine when she began to feel disappointed in the church and broke off from it.  She was deeply disturbed over the sterility of her marriage.  In more than twenty years of marriage she had never been pregnant.  Her energy and her lack of parental responsibilities had driven her restlessly from job to job until she learned the trade of beautician, which seemed to bring her gratification, especially for the period when she operated her own shop.  There she met May Novick, who was a client and became a close friend.  There too she met the woman who introduced her to dianetics and to "metaphysics." 

 

Through her membership in the dianetics and Scientology group to which Edna Post also belonged, Bertha was invited to hear Mrs. Keech talk and was impressed.  When Mrs. Keech needed secretarial assistance to type copies of the lessons, it was Bertha who thought immediately of May Novick and persuaded her to help.  Both Bertha and May were in contact with Mrs. Keech during the spring and summer, but stopped seeing her after she went to Collegeville in August, and did not hear from her again until early November.  Up till this night, Bertha, while interested and attentive, had never played a prominent role.


She declared herself baffled by what had just happened.  "I've never had an experience like that," she said.  She kept repeating that it had been a "terrific experience," and she couldn't put into words how it felt.  She had been afraid and uncertain how to behave although she "sort of knew," she said, that someone else's voice had "taken possession of" her.


During the next hour she called each member of the group to her side, and gave them one by one some spiritual message, some word of comfort, or blessing, from Sananda.  She took another break.  About 10:30 p.m. she resumed her position on the couch . . . "And the blessings of Sananda, on these precious, precious, precious [repeated eleven rimes] . . . precious sibets . . . and so it is, so be it, be it so, forever and ever, and ever [fourteen times] . . . and ever." 


Although the session continued until eight o'clock in the morning, there was no appreciable change in the general pattern of Bertha's speech.


[Nov. 24 at 11 p.m.] . . . it became clear that the voice speaking through her this night was not that of Sananda but the Creator Himself. . . . Bertha proceeded to discuss such matters as "the good," "the will," the "I," and the "Am."  As she progressed in these instructions she became more forceful and more domineering.

 

Although most of the Creator's teachings were irrelevant to the ideology of the movement, and to the flood prediction, He laid considerable emphasis on questions of will, self-discipline, and obedience.  In brief, the Creator's view was that everyone had the responsibility to organize and develop his own will, that action was a matter of individual decision and choice. This philosophy of self-determination, or, as it was later called, one's "inner knowing," became thoroughly accepted by the group.

 

At about 4:30 A.M., the Creator's spokesman suggested that there be a third meeting to be held on the following night.  Clyde Wilton protested that he had already stayed away from his family one day longer than he had planned, that he had missed two days' work, and that if any more time had to be taken off, he would have to ask for a leave of absence, which would require his explaining his purpose at length to his supervisor.  Furthermore, he added, the trip was expensive. He therefore outlined a plan: that those who dwelt out of town be allowed to meditate at home while the group was meeting, and that the instructional proceedings be recorded and sent to out-of-town members who could then read them.

 

The Creator promptly and flatly vetoed the plan.  There would be no recording of anything that was said at a group meeting — that was a rule.  Furthermore, it would not be sufficient to meditate at home; there were things to be learned and everyone must receive instruction.  Finally, the Creator stipulated that there must be at least three more instructional sessions during the next three weeks, since time was short and much had to be accomplished.  Thereupon, Clyde Wilton proposed a second plan, namely, three meetings in succession on the following weekend.  After asking if there were any objections to this plan, the Creator announced His willingness to cooperate.

 

The events of this night had been irrelevant to the central interest of the group.  No orders had been forthcoming, and, indeed, the cataclysm had not even been mentioned until shortly after 5 A.M., when the Creator spontaneously remarked: "I am wondering if I should bring up the question of the date.  Let me see, I can't decide if I should or not. Are you desirous of knowing about the date?"  Mrs. Keech seemed quite tense and anxious to hear what the Creator would say.  The voice from the couch sighed: "Well, then I will bring it up.  What do you wish to know?"  The room was electric with tension during the pause that followed Mrs. Keech's inevitable question: "Has the date we have been given been invalidated?"  The reply of the Creator was lengthy:

 

"It is not for me to invalidate that which has been given you.  She who has given it to you has been faithful and has worked very hard and has been responsible for the work which led to this wonderful, precious meeting tonight.  Her work has been  well done and she has been faithful to those who instructed her and to whom I gave the task of fixing the date and telling her of it.  Nor do I belittle her work when I say that she has been a good prophet, but tonight you are in the presence of the Creator who has chosen the greatest prophet, the Bertha, who ever was or ever will be."  [The apparent 'meaning' or 'significance' of this incident apparently concerns the immediacy of the manifestation in relation to witnesses —MRB]

 

The group meeting came to a bone-weary halt at 5:45, but activity did not cease, for each member was commanded to have a personal counseling session with the Creator, while the rest of the group stayed out of earshot, munching fruits, nuts, and matzoths, drinking Nescafé or spring water, and conversing.   

 

Dr. Armstrong was more emphatic about the validity of the date than the Creator had been. In a conversation with one of the observers earlier in the evening he had made his views clear:

 

"We've had that date mentioned several times.  I mean, it's come through in lots of messages: to our kids, to Marian, to us; and after all, we know it is a significant date too.  It's not just an accident, like the equinox or something.  You see, it's the day on which the Essenes moved out of their old house and went looking for a new master and teacher.  They had prayed for a universal teacher, and on the 20th of December they moved out of their old house to go looking for him, so it's a very significant date.  And, anyway, you know it's the 21st, not the 25th that Jesus was really born.  So we're pretty sure of the date."

 

The topic of proselyting had come up during the meeting, when the Creator had remarked that the lessons were "closed," that they were restricted to the group presently assembled, but that they were to be used "for the enlightenment of the world."  The Creator then clarified this by stating that members of the group were encouraged to instruct others and to disseminate  information, "for the good of the world," but to do so "with discretion," not promiscuously, not by telling others precisely what had happened on this night in this room, nor by talking to unsympathetic people, who might ridicule the beliefs, but by enlightening people "who are sympathetic."  There was also a strong implication that one ought not to mention the existence of the group.  During his personal counseling period an observer pursued the matter further and was told by the Creator:

 

"Remember that you alone cannot save the world or anyone in it.  Unless they will it, they cannot be taught or saved.  You are not to grab anyone or seize him and try to teach him.  You can very gently lead someone who is already willing and who will join his will with yours and mine to reach the light, but you cannot take anyone who is unwilling and save him.  You are not to tire yourself with trying too hard to rescue others.  Gently and a little at a time you can push people, but you must avoid rushing.  You must avoid hurrying things.  If you find yourself having to rush with a person, stop and give up.  It would not be right."


The meeting that Bertha Blatsky had scheduled for Friday, December 3, began in an unusual way.  As each guest arrived for the evening meeting his attention was directed to a note on the coffee table in the living room: "I shall receive one sibet at a time as they arrive in the room over us for instructions where I shall remain until the evening meeting.  Parich.  Beleis."* (*"Parich" was the title Mrs. Keech assumed during this phase of the movement and signed to her communiques from the Beyond.  "Beleis" was a recurring salutation and complimentary close to messages exchanged by the believers, as well as a greeting and farewell.)  Each sibet in turn climbed the stairs to the cramped attic where Mrs. Keech, thin and shivering, even though she huddled near the gas fire, delivered a personal message from Sananda.


[During the Dec. 3 meeting 'The Creator' spoke through Bertha:]  "I don't have to use fancy words like 'thee' and 'thou' and 'shalt.'  We are talking cold turkey.  You have had all the fancy words you need used on you before.  There has been too much time wasted on this sort of stuff . . . Another in this room has been told that she was Mary but she was told that by Sananda, and Sananda did not know.  Now you are getting it from the one who knows."

 

The climax of the Friday evening meeting occurred near eleven o'clock, when Bertha's voice announced the miracle that had been visited upon her.  She worked up to the climax gradually, over about half an hour, describing through the Creator's voice the shocking and bewildering information that He had instilled into her during the early part of the week — how she couldn't accept it at first, how she feared she was going mad.  She had been told, the Creator asserted, that she was to be the mother of Christ!

 

As the clock began to strike eleven, with dramatic suddenness Bertha began to moan and cry for help: "The Christ has not been born in spite of what the Bible says . . . but the baby will be born right now!  I need help!  Oh, doctor, help me!  A bed must be prepared, I have pain.  Something is happening in my abdominal area!  A bed and a doctor . . . and a nurse.  Upstairs . . . No one else must be in the room.  Oh, help me!"

 

Mrs. Keech and Dr. Armstrong were at her side in a moment and she was assisted up to the attic.  There, after ten or fifteen minutes of groaning and writhing, she seemed to regain possession of herself and calmed down.  While Mrs. Keech and May Novick remained to help her dress, the rest of the company assembled,  quietly, at loose ends, in the dining room.


Everyone confessed to complete bewilderment at what had happened, and asked his neighbor for interpretation which, of course, was not forthcoming.  Edna Post, as mystified as anyone, perhaps best expressed the feeling of the group: "I don't know what it means.  I guess we'll just have to wait and see."

 

When Bertha finally did descend, with Mrs. Keech, she was almost girlishly naive in her protestations that it was "all a mystery to me."  She kept assuring the group that she had not expected anything like the actual birth pangs and seemed quite concerned that no one believe that she had planned the "show" (as she called it, herself) in advance.  She finally remarked, "Perhaps we'll find out what it means when I go back in [to the trance]."

 

And find out she did.  The whole incident, the Creator asserted, had been a lesson, a demonstration of His originality and His intention to "run this show" His own way.  Finally, it was a joke too, a joke played on all of the group to jolt them out of their "preconceived ideas" and show them that anything could happen.

 

The remainder of the Friday night meeting was anticlimactic, being taken up with lessons and discussion about such topics as absorbing learning without thinking; the technique of not thinking; souls, their division and reunion as soulmates; and further assertions of the Creator's power and wisdom.

 

A large portion of the Saturday meeting was devoted to attempts to demonstrate the Creator's power to heal.  He attempted to remove a tiny blemish from the skin just under Bertha's right eye, and, when the audience seemed unconvinced that the mark was disappearing, the Creator announced somewhat peevishly that the demonstration had been a test of the audience's honesty in reporting what they saw.  The Creator's major attempt at healing took up more than an hour which He spent on curing May Novick of her long-standing fear of walking alone outdoors.


. . . on Saturday afternoon Bertha reemphasized the doctrine of "inner knowing."  In the Creator's voice she pronounced everyone in the group now capable of receiving messages themselves.  Such messages, she emphasized, were to be used only for personal guidance and enlightenment, and not for the instruction of others.  The Creator did not prohibit "spreading the light" to people outside the movement, but emphasized that the task of instruction was limited to Bertha and Mrs. Keech.  

 

Bertha also spoke for the Creator in the matter of "the brotherhood."  All the members present were brothers of the "Brotherhood of Sananda" and the "Order of the Light."  She demonstrated the secret sign by which one brother might recognize another — the left hand palm down on the right shoulder, and the head bowed — and cautioned the group to use the sign unostentatiously and only to make sure of the identity of someone who claimed to be a brother. 

(On Dec. 21 Marian received a message which she read aloud: "For this day is it established that there is but one God of Earth, and He is in thy midst, and from his hand thou has written these words.  And mighty is the word of God — and by his word have ye been saved — for from the mouth of death have ye been delivered and at no time has there been such a force loosed upon the Earth.  Not since the beginning of time upon this Earth has there been such a force of Good and light as now floods this room and that which has been loosed within this room now floods the entire Earth.  As thy God has spoken through the two who sit within these walls has he manifested that which he has given thee to do.")


In a session lasting almost an hour, the voice of the Creator made two important pronouncements; first, all the hitherto private, in fact secret, tape recordings were to be made available to the public — anyone could obtain a copy; and, second, the Creator Himself would make special new tapes for anyone who wanted one.  All the interested person had to do was to provide new tapes and he could have a private session in which the Creator answered his questions and recorded the answers.  All this, furthermore, was to be free of charge.  When Dr. Armstrong asked whether any of the tapes should be released to television and radio networks, the Creator  assured him that such a move would be advisable, and the major networks ought to be informed soon of the availability of the recordings.  The purpose of releasing the tapes, the Creator said, was to spread the light as far and wide as possible.  It is hardly necessary to stress the complete about-face that had occurred with regard to the tape recordings — from being sworn secrets they were catapulted into the full glare of national news.

 

Finally, the Creator assured all the members there that they need not worry about the future.  They must continue to learn, to study, and to teach and spread the light to others, but they themselves would be taken care of.

Based upon what may be learned in channeling cases and other transcendental communication 'Messages,' this last featured transcript portion in the book on the subject of publicity and journalism is suggestive in an inspiring way in consideration at the present time in 2022 — those who express Love for 'the Creator' by helping human beings in need (as each person is a Manifestation of 'The Only One') or through improving the ecology of our planet through these actions will conceivably have a different experience in the ascended realm than those who are unable to transcend presumed estimations of 'consensus reality,' Self-limiting 'social consciousness' perspectives, 'military programming,' 'corporate thinking' and immoral 'assumed imperatives' . . . 'the meek shall inherit the earth' is suggestive of the necessity of reincarnation on the physical plane of earthly manifestation for souls unable to achieve expanded consciousness during the preceding one/s.

 

7/20/22 Update: A sad ironic instance of the letter 'M' refers to what in English are called "Iskander M" Russian missiles.  I've learned that yesterday a brief article was published at The Hill by Oscar Arias and Jonathan Granoff, opinion contributors, as follows.

"Nuclear strategy and ending the war in Ukraine"

It is time for bolder efforts to make peace in Ukraine.

War, like fire, can spread out of control, and as President Putin keeps reminding us, this particular conflagration has the potential to start a nuclear war.

At a recent joint news conference with the President of Belarus, Putin announced that Russia would transfer Iskander M missiles to Belarus.  Those missiles can carry nuclear warheads, and the move is apparently intended to mirror nuclear sharing arrangements the United States has with five NATO allies — Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy, and Turkey.

U.S. nuclear weapons were introduced into Europe in the 1950s as a stopgap measure to defend NATO democracies whose conventional forces were weak.  The number of nuclear weapons in those five countries peaked around 7,300 warheads in the 1960s, then dwindled to about 150 today, reflecting NATO’s growing conventional strength and its diminishing estimation of the military usefulness of nuclear weapons.  But even 150 nuclear weapons could be more than sufficient to touch off a dangerous confrontation with Russia.

The world is as close to the nuclear abyss today as it was during the Cuban Missile Crisis.  In fact, contemporary nuclear risks may actually be worse.  Whereas Cuban Missile Crisis lasted just 13 days, the fighting in Ukraine will likely continue and tempt fate for many months to come.

Negotiations are therefore essential to defuse nuclear tensions.  Even though it has no direct role in the Ukraine war, it’s appropriate for NATO to have a role in encouraging negotiations to end it.

Since NATO is an enormously strong military force — stronger even than Putin’s Russia — and since President Putin has said that the war in Ukraine is in part a response to NATO’s actions, NATO calling for peace negotiations would be fitting and carry some weight. 

 

 

This YouTube Pop music video of a performance by The Rolling Stones on "Saturday Night Light" in 1978 offers a vivid example of how hypnotic the antics of Pop singers can be.  During a performance, singers also may seem to be in an altered state of consciousness.  This particular song "Beast of Burden" correlates with this phase of 'The Devil' conveyed to me through my personal firsthand experiences of transcendental communication.  The name of the singer 'Mick Jagger' also correlates with 'The Michael Pattern' interlinking famous cases of documented paranormal phenomena.  Creativity and 'channeling' are also phenomenal for individuals because each human mind is an individual 'personality' manifesting during an incarnation on the physical Earth plane of existence as an individual aspect of the omnipresent spiritual Oneness / 'The God Force' while each deciding each moment what inspirations to choose for manifestation through 'free will' and 'freedom of choice.'
