In order to understand the visitors’ activities in the world
today, we must present more information regarding their
influence on world religious institutions and values and on the
fundamental spiritual impulses which are common to your nature
and which, in many ways, are common to intelligent life in many
parts of the Greater Community.
We should begin by saying that the activities that the visitors
are conducting in the world at this time have been carried on
many times before in many different places with many different
cultures in the Greater Community. Your visitors are not the
originators of these activities but merely use them at their own
discretion and have used them many times before.
It is important for you to understand that skills in influence
and manipulation have been developed to a very high degree of
functionality in the Greater Community. As races become more
adept and more capable technologically, they exert more subtle
and more pervasive kinds of influence upon one another. Human
beings have only evolved thus far to compete with each other, so
you do not yet have this adaptive advantage. This in itself is
one of the reasons why we are presenting this material to you.
You are entering a whole new set of circumstances that require
the cultivation of your inherent abilities as well as the
learning of new skills.
Though humanity represents a unique situation, emergence into
the Greater Community has happened countless times before with
other races. Therefore, what is being perpetrated upon you has
been done before. It has been highly developed and is now being
adapted to your life and to your situation with what we feel is
relative ease.
The Pacification Program that is being implemented by the
visitors is making this possible, in part. The desire for
peaceful relations and the desire to avoid war and conflict are
admirable but can be, and indeed are being, used against you.
Even your most noble impulses can be used for other purposes.
You have seen this in your own history, in your own nature and
in your own societies. Peace can only be established upon a firm
foundation of wisdom, cooperation and true ability.
Humanity has naturally been concerned with establishing peaceful
relations amongst its own tribes and nations. Now, however, it
has a greater set of problems and challenges. We view these as
opportunities for your development, for it will only be the
challenge of emerging into the Greater Community that will unite
the world and give you the foundation for this unity to be
genuine, strong and effective.
Therefore, we come not to criticize your religious institutions
or your most fundamental impulses and values, but to illustrate
how they are being used against you by those alien races who are
intervening in your world. And, if it is within our power, we
wish to encourage the right employment of your gifts and your
accomplishments for the preservation of your world, your freedom
and your integrity as a race within a Greater Community context.
The visitors are fundamentally practical in their approach. This
is both a strength and a weakness. As we have observed them,
both here and elsewhere, we see that it is difficult for them to
deviate from their plans. They are not well adapted to change,
nor can they deal with complexity very effectively. Therefore,
they carry out their plan in an almost careless manner, for they
feel that they are in the right and that they have the
advantage. They do not believe that humanity will mount
resistance against them—at least not resistance that will affect
them greatly. And they feel that their secrets and their agenda
are well preserved and are beyond human comprehension.
In this light, our activity in presenting this material to you
makes us their enemies, certainly in their sight. In our sight,
however, we are merely attempting to counter their influence and
to give you the understanding that you need and the perspective
that you must rely upon to preserve your freedom as a race and
to deal with the realities of the Greater Community.
Due to the practical nature of their approach, they wish to
accomplish their goals with the greatest efficiency possible.
They wish to unite humanity but only in accordance with their
own participation and activities in the world. To them, human
unity is a practical concern. They do not value diversity in
cultures; they certainly do not value it within their own
cultures.
Therefore, they will attempt to eradicate it or
minimize it, if possible, wherever they are exerting their
influence.
In our previous discourse, we talked about the visitors’
influence on new forms of spirituality—on new ideas and new
expressions of human divinity and human nature that are in your
world at this time. In our discussion now, we would like to
focus on the traditional values and institutions that your
visitors seek to influence and are influencing today.
Attempting to promote uniformity and conformity, the visitors
will rely on those institutions and those values that they feel
are the most stable and practical for their use. They are not
interested in your ideas, and they are not interested in your
values, except insofar as these things might further their
agenda. Do not deceive yourself in thinking that they are drawn
to your spirituality because they lack such things themselves.
This would be a foolish and perhaps fatal mistake. Do not think
that they are enamored with your life and with those things that
you find to be intriguing.
For only in rare cases will you be
able to influence them in this way. All natural curiosity has
been bred out of them and very little remains. There is, in
fact, very little of what you would call “Spirit” or what we
would call “Varne” or “The Way of Insight.” They are controlled
and controlling and follow patterns of thinking and behavior
that are firmly established and strictly reinforced. They might
seem to empathize with your ideas, but it is only to gain your
allegiance.
In traditional religious institutions in your world, they will
seek to utilize those values and those fundamental beliefs that
can serve in the future to bring you into allegiance to them.
Let us give you some examples, born both of our own observations
and of the insight that the Unseen Ones have given us over time.
Many in your world follow the Christian faith. We think this is
admirable though it is certainly not the only approach to the
fundamental questions of spiritual identity and purpose in life.
The visitors will utilize the fundamental idea of allegiance to
a single leader in order to generate allegiance to their cause.
Within the context of this religion, the identification with Jesus the Christ will be greatly utilized. The hope and the
promise of his return to the world offers your visitors a
perfect opportunity, particularly at this turning point in the
millennium.
It is our understanding that the true Jesus will not return to
the world, for he is working in concert with the Unseen Ones and
serves humanity and other races as well. The one who will come
claiming his name will come from the Greater Community. He will
be one who is born and bred for this purpose by the collectives
that are in the world today. He will appear human and will have
significant abilities compared to what you can accomplish at
this moment.
He will seem completely altruistic. He will be able
to perform acts that will engender either fear or great
reverence. He will be able to project images of angels, demons
or whatever his superiors wish to expose you to. He will seem to
have spiritual powers. Yet he will come from the Greater
Community, and he will be part of the collective. And he will
engender allegiance to follow him. Eventually, for those who
cannot follow him, he will encourage their alienation or their
destruction.
The visitors do not care how many of your people are destroyed
so long as they have a primary allegiance amongst the majority.
Therefore, the visitors will focus on those fundamental ideas
that give them this authority and influence.
A Second Coming, then, is being prepared by your visitors. The
evidence of this, we understand, is already in the world. People
do not realize the presence of the visitors or the nature of
reality in the Greater Community, and so they will naturally
accept their prior beliefs without question, feeling that the
time has come for the great return of their Savior and their
Teacher. But he who will come will not come from the heavenly
host, he will not represent Knowledge or the Unseen Ones, and he
will not represent the Creator or the Creator’s will. We have
seen this plan in formulation in the world. We have also seen
similar plans carried out in other worlds.
In other religious traditions, uniformity will be encouraged by
the visitors—what you might call a fundamental kind of religion
based upon the past, based upon allegiance to authority and
based upon conformity to the institution. This serves the
visitors. They are not interested in the ideology and values of
your religious traditions, only in their usefulness. The more
that people can think alike, act alike and respond in
predictable ways, the more useful they are to the collectives.
This conformity is being promoted in many different traditions.
The intent here is not to make them all the same but to have
them be simple within themselves.
In one part of the world, one particular religious ideology will
prevail; in a different part of the world, a different religious
ideology will prevail. This is entirely useful to your visitors,
for they do not care if there is more than one religion so long
as there is order, conformity and allegiance. Having no religion
of their own that you could possibly follow or identify with,
they will use yours to engender their own values.
For they value
only total allegiance to their cause and to the collectives and
seek your total allegiance to participate with them in ways that
they prescribe. They will assure you that this will create peace
and redemption in the world and the return of whatever religious
image or personage is considered of the greatest value here.
This is not to say that fundamental religion is governed by
alien forces, for we understand that fundamental religion has
been well established in your world. What we are saying here is
that the impulses for this and the mechanisms for this will be
supported by the visitors and used for their own purposes.
Therefore, great care must be given by all who are true
believers in their traditions to discern these influences and to
counteract them if possible. Here it is not the average person
in the world that the visitors seek to convince; it is the
leadership.
The visitors firmly believe that if they do not intervene in a
timely manner, humanity will destroy itself and the world. This
is not based upon truth; it is only an assumption. Though
humanity is at risk of self-annihilation, this is not
necessarily your destiny.
But the collectives believe that this
is so, and so they must act with haste and give their programs
of persuasion great emphasis. Those who can be convinced will be
valued as useful; those that cannot be convinced will be
discarded and alienated. Should the visitors become strong
enough to gain complete control of the world, those who cannot
conform will simply be eliminated. Yet the visitors will not do
the destruction. It will be wrought through the very individuals
in the world who have fallen completely under their persuasion.
This is a terrible scenario, we understand, but there must be no
confusion if you are to understand and receive what we are
expressing in our messages to you. It is not the annihilation of
humanity, it is the integration of humanity that the visitors
seek to accomplish. They will interbreed with you for this
purpose. They will attempt to redirect your religious impulses
and institutions for this purpose. They will establish
themselves in a clandestine manner in the world for this
purpose. They will influence governments and government leaders
for this purpose. They will influence military powers in the
world for this purpose. The visitors are confident that they can
be successful, for so far they see that humanity has not yet
mounted enough resistance to counteract their measures or to
offset their agenda.
To counteract this, you must learn a Greater Community Way of
Knowledge. Any free race in the universe must learn The Way of
Knowledge, however it may be defined within their own cultures.
This is the source of individual freedom. This is what enables
individuals and societies to have true integrity and to have the
wisdom necessary to deal with the influences that counteract
Knowledge, both within their worlds and within the Greater
Community.
It is, therefore, necessary to learn new ways, for
you are entering a new situation with new forces and new
influences. Indeed, this is not some future prospect but an
immediate challenge. Life in the universe does not wait upon
your readiness. Events will happen whether you are prepared or
not. Visitation has occurred without your agreement and without
your permission. And your fundamental rights are being violated
to a far greater degree than you yet realize.
Because of this, we have been sent not only to give our
perspective and our encouragement but also to sound a calling,
an alarm, to inspire an awareness and a commitment. We have said
before that we cannot save your race through military
intervention. That is not our role. And even if we attempted to
do so and garnered the strength to carry out such an agenda,
your world would be destroyed. We can only advise.
You will see in the future a ferocity of religious belief
expressed in violent ways, carried out against people who
disagree, against nations of less strength and used as a weapon
of attack and destruction. The visitors would like nothing
better than for your religious institutions to govern the
nations. This you must resist.
The visitors would like nothing
better than to have religious values shared by everyone, for
this adds to their labor force and makes their task easier. In
all of its manifestations, such influence fundamentally reduces
down to acquiescence and submission—submission of will,
submission of purpose, submission of one’s life and abilities.
Yet this will be heralded as a great achievement for humanity, a
great advancement in society, a new unification for the human
race, a new hope for peace and equanimity, a triumph of human
spirit over human instincts.
Therefore, we come with our counsel and encourage you to refrain
from making unwise decisions, from giving your life over to
things that you do not understand and from acquiescing your
discernment and your discretion for the sake of any promised
reward. And we must encourage you not to betray Knowledge within
yourself, the spiritual intelligence with which you were born
and which now holds your only and greatest promise.
Perhaps in hearing this you will view the universe as a place
devoid of Grace. Perhaps you will become cynical and afraid,
thinking that avarice is universal. But this is not the case.
What is needed now is for you to become strong, stronger than
you are, stronger than you have been. Do not welcome
communications with those intervening in your world until you
have this strength. Do not open your minds and hearts to
visitors from beyond the world, for they come here for their own
purposes. Do not think that they will fulfill your religious
prophesies or greatest ideals, for this is a delusion.
There are great spiritual forces in the Greater
Community—individuals and even nations that have achieved very
high states of accomplishment, far beyond what humanity has
demonstrated thus far. But they do not come and take control of
other worlds. They do not represent political and economic
forces in the universe. They are not involved in commerce beyond
fulfilling their own fundamental needs. They rarely travel,
except in situations of emergency.
Emissaries are sent to help those who are emerging into the
Greater Community, emissaries such as ourselves. And there are
spiritual emissaries as well—the power of the Unseen Ones, who
can speak to those who are ready to receive and who show good
heart and good promise. This is how God works in the universe.
You are entering a difficult new environment. Your world is very
valuable to others. You will need to protect it. You will need
to preserve your resources so that you do not require or depend
upon trade with other nations for the fundamental necessities of
your life. If you do not preserve your resources, you will have
to relinquish much of your freedom and self-sufficiency.
Your spirituality must be sound. It must be based upon real
experience, for values and beliefs, rituals and traditions can
be used and are being used by your visitors for their own
purpose.
Here you can begin to see that your visitors are very vulnerable
in certain areas. Let us explore this further. Individually,
they have very little will and have difficulty dealing with
complexities. They do not understand your spiritual nature. And
they most certainly do not understand the impulses of Knowledge.
The stronger you are with Knowledge, the more inexplicable you
become, the harder you are to control and the less useful you
become to them and to their program of integration.
Individually, the stronger you are with Knowledge, the greater
challenge you become to them. The more individuals that become
strong with Knowledge, the more difficult it is for the visitors
to isolate them.
The visitors do not have physical strength. Their power is in
the Mental Environment and in the use of their technologies.
Their numbers are small compared to yours. They are wholly
reliant upon your acquiescence, and they are overly confident
that they can succeed. Based upon their experience so far,
humanity has not offered significant resistance. Yet the
stronger you are with Knowledge, the more you become a force
that opposes intervention and manipulation and the more you
become a force for freedom and integrity for your race.
Though perhaps not many will be able to hear our message, your
response is important. Perhaps it is easy to disbelieve our
presence and our reality and to react against our message, yet
we speak in accordance with Knowledge. Therefore, what we are
saying can be known within you, if you are free to know it.
We understand that we challenge many beliefs and conventions in
our presentation. Even our appearance here will seem
inexplicable and will be rejected by many. Yet our words and our
message can resonate with you because we speak with Knowledge.
The power of truth is the greatest power in the universe. It has
the power to free. It has the power to enlighten. And it has the
power to give strength and confidence to those who need it.
We are told that human conscience is highly valued though
perhaps not always followed. It is this that we are speaking of
when we talk about The Way of Knowledge. It is fundamental to
all of your true spiritual impulses. It is contained in your
religions already. It is not new to you. But it must be valued,
or our efforts and the efforts of the Unseen Ones to prepare
humanity for the Greater Community will not be successful. Too
few will respond. And the truth will be a burden for them, for
they will not be able to share it effectively.
Therefore, we come not to criticize your religious institutions
or conventions, but only to illustrate how they can be used
against you. We are not here to replace them or to deny them,
but to show how true integrity must pervade these institutions
and conventions in order for them to serve you in a genuine way.
In the Greater Community, spirituality is embodied in what we
call Knowledge, Knowledge meaning the intelligence of Spirit and
the movement of Spirit within you. This empowers you to know
rather than only believe. This gives you immunity from
persuasion and manipulation, for Knowledge cannot be manipulated
by any worldly power or force. This gives life to your religions
and hope for your destiny.
We hold true to these ideas, for they are fundamental. They are
lacking in the collectives, however, and should you encounter
the collectives, or even their presence, and have the power to
maintain your own mind, you will see this for yourself.
We are told that there are many people in the world who wish to
give themselves over, to give themselves away to a greater power
in life. This is not unique to the world of humanity, but in
the
Greater Community such an approach leads to enslavement. We
understand that in your own world, before the visitors were here
in such numbers, such an approach often led to enslavement. But
in the Greater Community, you are more vulnerable and must be
wiser, more careful and more self-sufficient. Recklessness here
brings with it a heavy price and great misfortune.
If you can respond to Knowledge and learn a Greater Community
Way of Knowledge, you will be able to see these things for
yourself. Then you will confirm our words rather than only
believe them or deny them. The Creator is making this possible,
for the Creator wills that humanity prepare for its future. That
is why we have come. That is why we are watching and now have
the opportunity to report what we see.
The religious traditions of the world speak well for you in
their essential teachings. We have had the opportunity to learn
about them from the Unseen Ones. But they also represent a
potential weakness.
If humanity were more vigilant and
understood the realities of life in the Greater Community and
the meaning of premature visitation, your risks would not be so
great as they are today. There is hope and expectation that such
visitation will bring great rewards and will be a fulfillment
for you. Yet you have not been able to learn of the reality of the Greater Community or of the powerful forces that are
interacting with your world. Your lack of understanding and
premature trust in the visitors do not serve you.
It is for this reason that the Wise throughout the Greater
Community remain hidden. They do not seek commerce in
the
Greater Community. They do not seek to be part of guilds or
trading cooperatives. They do not seek diplomacy with many
worlds. Their network of allegiance is more mysterious, more
spiritual in nature. They understand the risks and the
difficulties of exposure to the realities of life in the
physical universe. They maintain their insulation, and they
remain vigilant at their borders. They only seek to extend their
wisdom through means that are less physical in nature.
In your own world, perhaps, you can see this expressed in those
who are the wisest, the most gifted, who do not seek personal
advantage through commercial avenues and who are not given to
conquest and manipulation. Your own world tells you so much.
Your own history tells you so much and illustrates, though on a
smaller scale, everything that we are presenting to you here.
Thus, it is our intention not only to warn you of the gravity of
your situation but to provide you, if we can, a greater
perception and understanding of life, which you will need. And
we trust that there will be enough who can hear these words and
respond to the greatness of Knowledge. We hope there will be
those who can recognize that our messages are not here to evoke
fear and panic but to engender responsibility and a commitment
to the preservation of freedom and good within your world.
If humanity should fail in opposing the Intervention, we can
paint a picture of what this would mean. We have seen it
elsewhere, for each one of us came very close, within our own
worlds.
Being part of a collective, the planet Earth will be
mined for its resources, its people will be corralled to work
and its rebels and heretics will be either alienated or
destroyed. The world will be preserved for its agriculture and
its mining interests. Human societies will exist, but only in
subordination to powers from beyond your world. And should the
world exhaust its usefulness, should its resources be completely
taken, then you will be left, bereft. The supportive life upon
your world will have been taken from you; the very means of
survival will have been stolen. This has happened before in many
other places.
In the case of this world, the collectives may choose to
preserve the world for ongoing use as a strategic post and as a
biological storehouse. Yet the human population would suffer
terribly under such oppressive rule. The population of humanity
would be reduced. The management of humanity would be given to
those who are bred to lead the human race within a new order.
Human freedom as you know it would no longer exist, and you
would suffer under the weight of foreign rule, a rule that would
be harsh and exacting.
There are many collectives in the Greater Community. Some of
them are large; some of them are small. Some of them are more
ethical in their tactics; many are not. To the extent that they
compete with one another for opportunities, such as the rule of
your world, dangerous activities can be perpetrated. We must
give this illustration so that you will have no doubt as to what
we are saying. The choices before you are very limited, but very
fundamental.
Therefore, understand that from your visitors' perspective, you
are all tribes that need to be managed and controlled in order
to serve the visitors’ interests. For this, your religions and a
certain degree of your social reality will be preserved. But you
will lose a great deal. And much will be lost before you realize
what has been taken from you. Therefore, we can only advocate a
vigilance, a responsibility and a commitment to learn—to learn
about life in the Greater Community, to learn how to preserve
your own culture and your own reality within a greater
environment and to learn how to see who is here to serve you and
distinguish them from those who are not.
This greater
discernment is so needed in the world, even for the resolution
of your own difficulties. But regarding your survival and
well-being in the Greater Community, it is absolutely
fundamental.
Therefore, we encourage you to take heart. We have more to share
with you.
