Why a novel about aliens?

2/9/2020

0 Comments

 
​Let us pause the madness on earth right now and think about extraterrestrials a.k.a. aliens. They have a very bad reputation. Lots of scary stereotypes of monsters who want to invade the earth and make us all slaves, or harvest our organs. Anybody seen the movies called ALIEN?

At the same time, we have the HISTORY Channel showing a series on Ancient Aliens, see https://www.history.com/shows/ancient-aliens . How aliens helped seed the human race, introduced technologies, helped build giant civilizations (some of which disappeared into the ocean), and left behind marks and symbols all over the earth.

Also, the phenomenon of UFO sightings. How the U.S. government suppresses all information about sightings. How sometimes, a pilot or a researcher who knows too much disappears or experiences a totally unexpected fatal accident.

There is a rebellious effort to go around official suppression, in the form of MUFON (Mutual UFO Network)—an all-volunteer, non-profit group that is the world’s oldest and largest civilian UFO investigation and research organization. See https://www.mufon.com/ .

Meanwhile, every year, there is an annual meeting on all things alien. It is like ComicCon only it is AlienCon. See https://www.thealiencon.com/  I’ll share my experience in Baltimore in another posting. There are people from the History Channel on panels, and people telling you what happened when they were abducted. And people dress up!

In short: IT IS CRAZY FASCINATING AND LOTS OF US ARE THINKING ABOUT IT
​

That’s why you should get your hands on the novel: https://www.amazon.com/Pip-Sedro-Woolley-Ruta-Sevo/dp/0999118757/

The Divine & the nature of our being, Buddhism

6/25/2015

Someone asked me “What made you a Buddhist?”

I did not like the idea that we are all born sinners and need to be “saved” by an external God who is also Father. That we go to “heaven” when we die, if we are “good.” And never come back.

Rather, I think each of us is divine. We are a manifestation of the divine in the material world, which is but one plane of existence. Thus through meditation and experience, we evolve our souls to “realize” the true nature of things, which is that “this immediate material life is not the whole story.”

We are not sinners. We are born to evolve our souls through particular challenges that we choose. We have “spiritual contracts” with people to help us develop our souls. The cycle of rebirth and karma allow us to try again and again to gain understanding and act in the world in a way that re-creates the world to be better.

Many of my ideas come from experiences like the one below.

Lowell K. Smith, a spiritual and holy man, “channels” higher entities, who explain the nature of being, becoming, existence and reality (a.k.a. ontology).  (“The channel” is what the higher entities call Lowell when they refer to him.)

Excerpts from the transcript of the Spontaneous Channeling Session June 24, 2015

 “Blessing upon this gathering from the Council of [the] Most High.  … Your responsibility as a sentient being expressing in your physical form, is to learn to unconditionally to love yourself, and as you [learn to] do so, begin to learn to unconditionally love everyone else.  You do not have to demonstrate or actively reach out for but you have to energetically, [and] continuously send light and love to every other being who is also struggling through their process.  Each of us – each of you, the channel included, are in [the] process of gaining understanding, and as being a part of this gathering, having the opportunity to express that understanding, and to question that understanding, and to gain insights about that understanding so that you grow in your own personal awareness of who you are.  … You make choices in determining who you desire to become.  For as you consciously become more aware of same, … knowing who you are and knowing who you desire to become, and then making the effortfulness through meditation, through listening to your dreams, through sharing your experiences, and your understandings with others, and allowing yourself to listen open mindedly to others as well.  These are the things that will allow you to become more in alignment with the purpose for which you, as well as this channel, came into this earth plane.
…
With this we say a blessing upon each of thee, and a blessing upon this channel as he continues his processes …  So with this we release the channel back to his normal processes and we say “We are through.”

You can learn more about “the channel” from his website: Rev. Lowell K. Smith

Regarding channeling: I am a fan of Madame Blavatsky (1831 – 1891), an occultist and spiritual medium who founded Theosophy and the spiritualist movement. She became one of the first Euro-Americans to officially convert to Buddhism. She also channeled and published “ancient wisdom” as told to her by spirits. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helena_Blavatsky for another great story.

Kim O'Neill, psychic and medium

People ask me "How can you believe this stuff?" Because my experiences with it are unexplainable by science. How can someone who doesn't know you talk you on the phone (after hearing your name) and tell you things that no one else can know about you?

I had many such experiences in my 40's and asked myself: what do you think is going on? Is this person reading my subconscious? Are they really tapping into "higher intelligence" and "heavenly archives" and reading my records -- about my personal past and my personal future?

Are the dead people "coming through" really speaking through this person? It seems the messages are very personal. Many skeptics will say, "Oh, good guess -- your deceased mother really loves you." But they feel like the voice of that departed one.


My early experiences with this were so dramatic, I called it "therapy without talking." After hearing the "inside story" about relationships, I reflected: "Yes, that could be happening." The information calmed me down. Made me focus on positive things that MIGHT happen. REALLY RE-ALIGNED my attitude. Made me work harder for goals that I was told were indeed possible. Made me patient about frustrating people around me. That's therapeutic. And VERY DRAMATIC, I'm telling you! 

I told my brother, before a reading, "Ask whatever you would ask God."

Kim O'Neill is not the only source, but her reading for me recently thoroughly "shook my tree." She does readings by telephone from Texas.  http://kimoneillpsychic.com/
