Chapter Ten
Conclusion
In the previous chapters we’ve become familiar with the general
foundations of the basic communication which I have extracted from
the contacteé and other UFO phenomena. The material we have examined
is only a tiny percentage of the total contacteé data available to
the energetic researcher, but it does represent the general gist of
most contacteé data. I will not say that there are not some totally
anomalistic contacteé cases, but these seem to be in the minority.
One of these cases is the strange and lengthy contact of the people
from the planet UMMO, the original contacteé reports coming from
Spain. As a researcher said:
Invited to address the gathering at the close of the Symposium,
Secretary-General Fouere dwelt upon the unique nature of the UMMO
reports. He said: “I have received dozens of messages from supposed
extraterrestrials, transmitted by all types of contacteés. They are
always messages of a missionary or evangelical type, in which
terrestrials are warned of the tremendous dangers resulting from
their imprudent manipulation of atomic energy; or the others try to
save us and redeem us. The UMMO messages, on the other hand, without
attempting to convert us to any sort of cosmic religion.1
It is to be noted that although the UMMO material is not high-key in
its zeal to save earth, the philosophical content of the messages
are congruent with the basic Confederation philosophy. Noted
researcher Brad Steiger, a man with quite a bit of experience in
dealing with the contacteé phenomena, gave this evaluation of the
contacted message content in his excellent and perceptive book, THE
AQUARIAN REVELATIONS:
The philosophical and metaphysical content of the essential message
allegedly entrusted to the contacteé is nearly always the same. A
distillation of the Outer Space Apocrypha would reveal such concepts
as the following:
-
Man is not alone in the solar system. He has “space brothers” and
they have come to earth to reach him and to teach him.
-
The Space Brothers have advanced information which they wish to
impart to their weaker brethren. The Space Brothers want man to join
an intergalactic spiritual federation.
-
The Space Brothers are here to teach, to help man rise to higher
levels of vibration so that he may be ready to enter new dimensions.
According to the Outer Space Apocrypha, such a goal was precisely
what Jesus, the prophets, Confucius and the leaders of the great
religions have tried to teach man.
-
Man stands now in the transitional period before the dawn of a New
Age. With peace, love, brotherhood and understanding on man’s part,
he will see a great new era begin to dawn.”
-
If man should not raise his vibratory rate within a set period of
time, severe earth changes and cataclysms will take place. Such
disasters will not end the world, but shall serve as cataclysmic
crucibles to burn off the dross of unreceptive humanity.”
2
You can see that I am not the only ufologist who has been putting
the puzzle pieces patiently together over the years. These
conclusions as to the content of the UFO message seem inescapable to
the serious investigator. In fact, the missionary aspect of the
UFO’s contact is assumed to be present to the point where, in a
recent case, the investigator was puzzled as to why the contacteé
hadn’t responded properly to it:
If Mrs. M’s UFO experience was “designed” to inspire her with a
missionary zeal, as has happened to other contacteés, why has it not “worked” for her in this way, and for what deeper reasons other than
to avoid notoriety has she avoided telling many people about her
experience.3
To conclude this exploration, I will make a statement of the total
UFO story as I have come to understand it, on the basic
philosophical level. The UFO sources have a view of the universe and
man within it upon which they build all their actions toward us.
This is what we are getting from the bulk of these UFO contacts:
-
The stuff of which the universe is made is
consciousness, a single,
infinite consciousness. This by definition is the Creator. This
consciousness created vibrations through infinite space. This basic
vibration is identified in our physical science as the photon, the
basic particle-wave called light. This light vibration is the raw
material used to make everything that there is within the creation.
-
The vibrations which were fashioned from light exist over a large
range of frequencies, only a small portion of which is apparent
within our present physical reality. All atoms, whether within or
outside of our physical reality are simply more complex rotations
and vibrations of the basic photon.
We are then, a highly complex, vibrational, single, infinite,
entity. Presently we are experiencing the illusion of
individualization as separate entities, but still we have been
created by the one consciousness, and our basic essence resides
within the Creator’s one consciousness. This original state has been
allegorized by the Holy Bible’s story of Adam and Eve. In that tale,
the serpent coaxes the couple into eating the fruit of knowledge of
duality (good and evil), and so they get ousted from the Garden. The
UFOnauts say that the Creator created us with knowledge of our unity
with all things, but also with free will and the ability to create
as His sons and daughters. Through our free will, they say, man long
ago decided to become individualized to the extent that we could no
longer find our unity with one another. We were no longer one, we
had entered into a man-made universe of duality, of separation from
the original thought, which then resulted in the polarization of
consciousness (good and evil). From this duality all of our present
problems have been generated.
The original creative thought was a thought of the creation in which
each part would act in service to the other parts, just as the parts
of the body act as a unit, in mutual service to itself as a whole.
However, in the man-created world the various parts have ceased
being totally and mutually supported, and a far more complex
world-reality has emerged. The question of why the world doesn’t
seem to work very well can be put in focus by imagining what would
happen to the natural creation if trees got tired of turning CO2
into oxygen and clouds decided not to rain any more. In some cases
we humans are still capable of being biased towards service: we are
shocked if a mother refuses to feed her new-born child. But we have
strayed far enough into isolation to be unable to perceive the unity
between us all, so that we tend to believe that there are some whom
we should not serve, but oppose.
This Adam and Eve adventure of ours away from the original thought
resulted in succeeding changes of vibration, as the structure of the
individualizing consciousness proceeded to take form. Back when the
individualized man was young he had the full Creator’s ability to
instantly create that which was imagined. Thus the Creation grew and
grew. But as the consciousness of unity was lost, the Creation
became progressively stratified so that it came to exist not as one
vibration of love but as many vibrations, each a little less rapid
than its predecessor. And so evolved the numerous densities of
experience, all condensed from the same original vibration, each
spanning part of the range from total unity to total separation.
This makes for a vast creation of experience, considering that the
original consciousness was infinite to begin with.
We are, today, encased in a consciousness many eons away from the
condition of total unity. Most of us don’t totally like where we’ve
landed in the continuum of experience: worse, most of us don’t even
remember the journey we took to get here. According to the UFO
contacts, we are at a point in the journey back toward the original
thought where it is possible for at least some of us to realize our
position and make a conscious choice about our own progress. We have
been preparing to make this choice for almost a full cycle of
experience at this level or density. The time to make the choice is
now, for the cycle is ending.
As fast as the ship passed the lights, the etherean musicians came
aboard, being anxious to meet Hipacha and his hosts, especially the
I’hins, and to congratulate them on being the first harvest from the
lowest heaven at the end of a cycle. And strange to say there were
just twice as many as Sethantes had prepared in the first dawn on
earth. Fragapatti called the swift messengers belonging to the roads
of Gon, in etherea, and he said unto them: Go ye to Sethantes, whose
fields lie in the Roads of Gon, and say unto him: Greeting, in the
name of Jehovah! The earth hath reached Obsod and Goomatchala, home
of Fragapatti, who sendeth love and joy on behalf of sixty millions,
first harvest of h’ak, grade sixty-five.4
Grade fifty is the minimum harvestable grade, according to
OAHSPE,
the grade indicating that the person is fifty percent for himself
and fifty percent for service to others.
Now we are living within the third density of vibration, trying in
our rather vague way to learn how to think, not in a complex and
intellectual way but in the sense of coming into tune with the
original vibration of unity.
I realize that some people are perfectly satisfied with life as it
is. I am reminded of the circus janitor who cleans up after the
elephants. Upon being interrupted at his malodorous work, shovel in
hand, he looks up and smiles. “Say,” we quip, “how come you keep on
working here. What a job! Don’t you want to leave and get a better
job?” The janitor laughs in amazement, and replies: “What? And quit
show business?” So, some people like this density, and, indeed,
there are those who seek a level of experience even farther from
unity than ours. If all upon our planet were striving for unity,
then the UFOnauts wouldn’t be nearly so elusive. But there are many
who prefer their universe as it now is, and do not wish to be
bothered with such nonsense.
In OAHSPE, we find Jehovih (Jehovah?) speaking “out of the light inherent” in
the etherean gardens, stating the situation like this:
Sixteen times have my etherean hosts redeemed the earth and her
heavens from darkness into light, and yet ere the end of a cycle she
falleth again, and her atmospheres with her. And now it hath come to
pass that her heavens are filled with thousands of millions of
spirits that know not Me and My emancipated
worlds.5
Here is the “fallen mankind” described in another way:
… man so loved the earth and
whatsoever ministered unto his ease and to his flesh desires,
that he fell from his high estate. And great darkness came upon
the earth. And man cast aside his clothes, and went naked, and
became carnal in his desires. The Lord went abroad over the
earth calling: Come to me, O man! Behold, thy Lord is returned!
But man heard not the voice of the lord; for, by man’s
indulgence, the spirit of man was covered up in his own flesh.6
So, mankind, and all entities in the creation, dwell within various
densities, in some degree sensitive or insensitive to the original
vibration of unity or love which created the universe.
After all of these densities were formed in the Creation, the desire
began to be generated to do the inevitable: make a full circle back
to the original unity. Jacob’s ladder, with every rung going higher,
is a good analogy to this: man has inborn the inevitable desire to
seek for the top of his ladder of experience. All over our infinite
Creation, entities have progressed, at various rates, on this climb
back to the original condition. As entities reach a certain point in
their development, they begin to again grasp the nature of the
Creator as service to all. At this point these entities reach their
hands down the ladder, to help their brothers who are climbing
below. But the law of progression is sustained in perfect free will,
so that only those who are reaching up for that help will receive
it. Men have an inalienable right to progress, or even regress, at
their individual speeds; there is an infinite amount of time
available.
The UFO source states that in the third density of vibration we have
tools with which to make our experiences work for our progress: our
physical or third-density body, and our higher self, which can
detach itself from the physical and experience the finer vibrations
of existence which interpenetrate our physical world. Most of the
total humanity which has ever been in the physical is at present to
be found in the finer planes of existence. The inhabitants of these
astral and devachanic regions incarnate into a physical body
primarily for the experiences which the physical world can offer.
Some within the astral realms incarnate chiefly to experience the
pleasures of the flesh. The more spiritually evolved souls of the devachanic regions often desire incarnation into the physical to
mature themselves through the catalyst of physical experience, which
is much more immediate and keenly felt than experience on higher
planes.
The astral’s objective is easy to understand: he just wants
to get back in the game and live it up. To get at the reason that
the devachanic entity wants to incarnate, let me just give an
example in story form. Mr. Good has, in his previous life on Earth,
done a great many nice things, but like all of us, he was in some
ways still selfish. After his death, back on the higher planes, he
was able to view his life just passed as a whole, and in this
perspective his mistakes were apparent. In the higher vibration to
which he has come because his vibrations basically are a match with
it, all of his companions have his desire for advancement, and thus
it is possible to “see” with more discerning eyes what has occurred
on the denser planes. The errors become obvious.
Now Mr. Good has an ambition: he wants to correct his mistakes in
order to advance his level of consciousness. But this is not easy to
do by pure force of will. It must be done in the dense level at
which one acts and then seems to receive reactions from the outside.
On the devachanic level it is obvious that all effects are the
result of one’s own actions.
Even as to the square of the distance away from the earth, so are
the
grades of my resurrections.
According to the exaltation of man’s soul, so shall he inhabit the
places
I have made.
According to his own soul’s growth and development, so shall he
ascend in my kingdoms, outward away from the earth, grade unto grade
adapted I them.7
The great virtue of the physical world is the amount of pain which
it can generate in consciousness. It is due to the stimulus of this
catalyst, pain, that we gradually learn how to avoid pain, in an
ever-ascending sense. Primitive man learns not to put his hand in
the fire: spiritually-seeking man learns to combat his own pain by
seeking to be of service to his fellow man. The pain of existence
can be felt at the level of the physical body, within the mental or
the emotional body, or solely within the spiritual body. Yet while
we are within the physical this pain will have a far more urgent and
pressing nature, and the decision to seek for its rightful surcease
will have a far more pronounced effect upon our essential being.
So Mr. Good chooses another Earth life. Maybe this time he does a
little better. He evaluates again. There is no limit to the number
of tries a person can have. If necessary an entity could go through
our earthbound experiences through eternity.
The analogy may be made to the apparatus for distillation of pure
water. The denser vibrations are closer to the earth’s surface,
actually penetrating it, while the faster ones move at higher
altitude. Entities continually make a circuit from a higher level
back to the surface, then back again, upward, but hopefully to a
higher vibration than before. This is a sort of percolating process
producing finally a distillate of souls that are ready for a more
refined distillery. This we have seen called the fourth density by
UFO sources. OAHSPE describes the type of distillation desired upon
this density of existence as follows:
Jehovih had so made man and
angels that, whosoever had learned to abnegate self and to labor
for the good of others, was already above grade fifty, and his
ascension should be perpetual thereafter; whilst they that were
below grade fifty, who had not put away self, should gravitate
downward, toward the earth.8
In our previous harvests, says OAHSPE, only a small percentage “made
the grade”:
Loo’wan said: Great Spirit, I have heard, I have seen. We gather the
earth’s harvest for Thee, O Jehovih, but they are small. We gather
the earth’s harvests of dark spirits, O Jehovih, and they are
ten times larger. Behold, there is no balance between them.9
And as oft as they are raised up in light, so are they again cast
down in darkness, because of the great desire of the spirits of the
dead to return back to the earth. These druj return to mortals and
fasten upon them as fetals or as familiars, and inspire them to
evil. Go now to the earth, O my beloved, and find the division of
the earth where most these druj congregate, for I will uproot their
stronghold; I will break them from their haunts and they shall
no longer carry My people down to destruction.10
In past harvest-times, it has happened that entire isolated
populations of our world would reach a satisfactory vibration, with
souls choosing to incarnate here to be with like-minded people,
these populations being isolated from the rest of the world. In
these circumstances, the UFOnauts have been able to make actual
physical contact from the next vibration. The UFO sources feel that
this open contact is highly detrimental to any culture not
spiritually ready for it, for several reasons. First, it is
demoralizing to realize that there are places one can’t go. More
importantly, the physical illusion is most effective when it appears
totally real and of unquestioned importance. People who are more or
less ready to graduate from this classroom of Earth do not need to
have the illusion sustained for them; they are ready for a broader
perspective. For those who are still learning, this perspective
would be detrimental. It would instill, to some degree, doubt in the
importance of the “training aids” of our daily experience. IS told
Puharich and Geller that they had landed 3000 years ago. They
apparently had found a culture sufficiently advanced in vibration to
meet.
Right now, there doesn’t seem to be a culture or nation sufficiently
advanced as a whole to make possible a general or mass landing of
fourth density entities. It may be possible that a very small,
isolated group might be able to accept such a direct contact. But IS
says, “And now we must land again.” They are anxious to aid us, now,
and to land, because of where we are in our system of cycles. We are
at the end of a harvesting period, so that the Earth itself is
making her transition to the fourth density. This transition is
inexorable and involves not just our planet but the solar system as
a whole.
I realize this is one of the harder parts of the UFO story to
swallow. It is not easy to picture not just people, but every atom,
molecule, particle and part of the solar system, in transition, so
that the vibratory rate of all particles will increase one density
level in vibrational rate. But the explanation of the cause of the
natural catastrophes which a very large percentage of UFO
contacteés
forecast rests on this basic premise of cyclical transition. For the
planetary mayhem is said to be brought about due to the disharmony
between the vibrations of our planet and the density into which it
is transiting.
The planetary vibration is said to be the result of the total sum of
man’s individual vibrations through history. When the majority of
the people advance in vibratory rate at the “normal” rate, the
transition to the higher vibration, when time comes for it to be
made, is smooth and without incident. But in our case, the majority
of our people have not made the appropriate advances, and so there
is conflict between our vibration as a planet and the vibration of
the new volume of space into which we are passing. As the vibrations
increase at the nuclear level and changes begin to occur, the
resultant energy releases will result in thermal gradients
sufficient to create great stresses in the Earth and therefore
massive Earth changes. Through
George Hunt Williamson, the source
known as Brother Philip says,
Concern yourselves with the sheep of the flock, those that have
strayed or wandered away, for they must have the message of hope and faith
in order to endure those tragic days ahead.11
Philip pictures the “sheep” to be those who have a sufficiently high
vibration to make the transition into the next density, but
have no
intellectual knowledge of what is occurring. They see many “sheep”
as sitting on the fence, poised between striving consciously to
advance spiritually and striving instead for more
physically-oriented goals to the exclusion of spiritual ones. It is
their hope that the sheep may be alerted as these Earth changes
begin, so that they may get off the fence, on the spiritual side.
The disasters will frighten many, and the Confederation of Planets
wishes to alleviate this fear, by putting the events into
perspective with their spiritual significance.
Certainly, when we do experience a disaster such as a tornado,
hurricane, or flood, we see much pride and glory washed or blown
away. Physical structures are torn to shreds, people’s belongings
and treasures lost. Yet from these experiences people overwhelmingly
report their renewed thankfulness to the Creator for sparing them
what they see, now to be far more important: their loved ones. The
experience seems to focus in people a feeling of being newborn,
thankful for real blessings, and humble in the face of the
omnipotence of the Creator.
The positively oriented group of UFOnauts are working to make
available to people in just this frame of mind the information which
gives the spiritual reason for the Earth changes. The Bible gives
us, “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the Earth.” Taken
in reference to the coming transition, the statement describes those
of a sufficiently service-oriented attitude to be in harmony with
Earth’s new rate of vibration.
In the same message, Brother Philip says,
… the spirit of Anti-Christ is ever more powerful, and it is drawn
closer and closer towards the Earth, where it shall have its final
death throes.
But in those death throes
it will take many down with it, and they will not find the
Kingdom to be inherited, but must repeat again that great
cycle of time that is now culminating in the scene upon your
Earth world.12
This is spoken of in the Bible as
the battle of Armageddon. The UFO
sources see it as a battle of mind involving billions of entities
both in the physical and in the finer densities of Earth’s
vibrations, with those billions knowing little or nothing of their
part in the battle, or even that the battle is raging. Like most
battles, only the “generals” know the overall objectives of the
fight, and so in this battle the Masters on both sides—the sides
being good and evil, or unity and separation—are doing their best to
harvest the greatest crop of consciousness. Their objectives are
completely within what we call the mental planes, but objectives won
within these planes are inevitably manifested into the physical.
The increasing polarization of the good and evil forces within our
planet’s people is showing up now in, on the one hand, the great
increase in people’s desire to seek spiritually; on the other hand,
the great increase in crime, war-mindedness, desire for individual
power, corporate and personal greed and corruption, and the many
other negative aspects of thought which are easily picked out of
today’s news. The significant fact of course is not that these
things occur, but that they are increasing.
From Revelation: “And there shall be wars and rumors of wars and
nation shall rise against nation.” What kind of thinking causes this
situation, which most assuredly now is occurring? The contacteés
say, very simply, thought of self rather than service. The problems
of Earth, from small to vast, can be traced back to this one choice.
The result of individuals choosing to serve self is, ultimately,
hatred, war, and crime.
As we enter the cusp of this transition period, with the potential
difference between the coming vibration of higher unity and the
existing vibration of self-service or separation becoming greater
and greater, the positive UFOnauts feel that the “sheep” have the
greatest chance possible to use this Earth classroom effectively.
People can make great progress in these “last days.”
In addition to the positive UFOnauts in their craft who are here to
aid us, there are many “apples” who are striving to aid Earth’s
vibration. They have to some degree remembered who they are and what
their purpose here is, and they have entered many fields of endeavor
to get the message of spiritual seeking spread. Some are in the
various fields of communications through media, TV and motion
picture production. Some are popular musicians, writing songs about
things of the spirit that are on everyone’s lips. Some write in
modern parable of the eternal truths. Some find expression in their
careers of all kinds, touching people through their very
personalities and points of view, their simple examples of how to
live in harmony. Quite often, the apples are not fully aware of why
they have written these songs or words, lived this life, or done
these deeds; he or she is simply following an inner direction which
is trusted intuitively. I don’t mean that one must be an apple to
live or act in the described manner, but a great many who so live
and act are apples. And all who are led to positive acts are
benefiting not only themselves but the Earth vibration as a whole.
A footnote to the discussion about apples is the fascinating fact
that the Beatle’s recording company was called Apple Records. I have
often wondered whether the Beatles were aware of George Hunt
Williamson’s book.
It is an unshakable tenet of the UFO sources that though they can
aid their brothers of Earth in spiritual seeking, the first step, of
choosing to seek, must be made under conditions of complete free
will by the individual. Hence is formed the concept of providing an
example of higher truth, which alerts the seeking consciousness
without giving him any proof as such. To prove the “miracle” or
“higher being” to be real is to force the choice of seeking on
people. But this choice must remain to be accepted or rejected
without prejudice: this is the mechanical structure of spiritual
evolution. In 1963 a contacteé in Warren, Pennsylvania, received:
… there was a great being who descended into the Earth and parted
the sea in testimony for the Israelites, but they did not
understand. These miracles were not understood, and this shall not
happen again.
The miracles we get now will continue to be of a controversial
nature so that people who wish to refute them may do so.
“Those who
have the eyes to see, let them see.”
IS was at first very hesitant about giving
Puharich permission to
have Geller’s abilities scientifically tested:
After you insisted that Uri be validated, counsel was taken higher
and higher, and it was decided that Uri could be validated just this
once. And he may never be allowed to do such work again under laboratory
control.13
It would be in keeping with the
contacteé theory that they might
feel that something on the order of scientific proof might be too
strong a catalyst for us, so that they would be infringing on our
free will. They were correct to allow Geller to be tested, for as
they must have finally surmised, people who do not want to trust
this proof, simply state that they don’t believe that anything has
been proven. The desired controversy over Geller has only been
enhanced by these scientific tests!
I do not foresee a parting of the sea occurring in the near future;
but I do predict that our UFOnaut visitors will continue to feed man
on Earth tantalizing bits of evidence of the illusory nature of his
world picture. Each of us will find the truth—in our own way.
“The Amazing” James Randi, a professional magician, is quite
convinced that Uri Geller is no more than a conjurer, and that his
supposed feats of psychic ability are actually well-done illusions. Randi’s complaints about Geller include the point of Geller’s
inability or unwillingness to work when there are professional
magicians around. Randi states that if he were trying to do
illusions, he also would wish for no colleagues to be around, that
is, if he wanted to fraudulently indicate to the public that his
effects were not “tricks” but a demonstration of psychic ability.
He makes a good case on his own terms. The game has been rather
expanded out from under him, of course, by the arrival on the scene,
and the testing, of many children throughout the world who have the
Geller-type abilities. But the book by Randi brings out one of the
main strands of thought that weave into my theory. For this
controversy between Geller and his many detractors points up one
thing above all: this physical world is very real to us.
And it is for a purpose that this world is so real, so
solid-appearing to us. All of us have incarnated into the physical
to experience its catalytic effect upon our higher self. It is
necessary for this illusion to be real, if we are to benefit from
its manifestations. Our ultimate objective while we are in this
physical illusion is to work our way out of it, mentally and
emotionally. The clues which show the direction this effort should
take are subtle, but numerous. It is necessary to set out to
discover the true reality by an act of will: it is necessary to
decide to seek the truth. The Biblical injunction, “Seek and ye
shall find,” is the heart of this concept. The truth is all about
us, yet we are not forced to behold it. Only when we freely will to
seek the truth, shall we find it.
So, the clues which help to start us seeking the truth can never be
provable, blatant, and leaving no room for doubt. All the clues are
open questions. The UFO phenomena as well as the Geller abilities
will retain that quality of elusiveness, of improvability, until
such time as all of us already have begun seeking. When Randi said,
“I cannot choose to believe something because I want to,” he had an
important truth by the tail, though I think he was holding it the
wrong way. It is when we want to know the truth that the truth
begins to come to us.
Some people see UFOs, and some don’t. There is a reason for this
discrimination. A person who is at the proper stage of mental
evolution can tolerate the stimulus to seeking which is effected by
the sighting. Likewise in other paranormal events, whether the event
happens or not is highly dependent on the state of mind of the
observers. When an attitude of seeking along the so-called spiritual
path is manifested, the event is also manifested. One real skeptic
in the group can nullify results. Randi says he is good at exposing
Geller because he is a magician.
I say that I am good at verifying Geller’s abilities because I
understand the limitations of the phenomena. For the first time in
recent history, we have increasing numbers of people performing what
seem to be small miracles. This is happening now as a way of
gradually breaking the illusion for those of Earth’s people who are
ready for a new understanding. People who are unwilling to take
these clues, like Randi, will be perfectly able to ignore them.
Total free will is part of the plan.
One more observation about “miracles.” The bent metal and the
UFO
sighting seem like miracles to us. We are so jaded! A flower blooms,
a baby is born, and we think that’s no miracle! If we are going to
understand the true nature of our environment, it will be necessary
to turn off the intellect and become, as a little child, aware of
the creation. It makes no difference whether Geller is really
performing miracles.
His function is to stimulate thinking,
not to
prove anything. There is no way of proving miracles, for the plan
itself provides for rejection of any concept, and therefore for lack
of provability. We are surrounded by not just a few miracles done by
Geller and others, not just a history of miracles done by Masters
such as Jesus, but by the infinite panoply of the “natural” magic of
our world. How did this world of beauty and marvelous efficiency we
know as nature come to be? Is it not also miraculous? Yet this
beauty also can be accepted or rejected, depending on our
philosophical attitude. The whole universe speaks to us. But we do
not have to listen.
