5.0 out of 5 stars
Outstanding,
By Tim (Ballwin, MO United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Universal Vision: Soul Evolution and the Cosmic Plan (Paperback)
If you're seeking understanding about soul growth and ET involvement, you need to read this. Many of us may well be ET souls here to assist in the coming changes on this planet. It also explains quite well about the positive and negative ET involvement and purpose. It's important for everyone to understand the motives behind ET's and which to welcome and which to beware of. Also will explain how you can prevent the visitations if you are experiencing them.

Neglected, but very important book,

This review is from: Universal Vision: Soul Evolution and the Cosmic Plan (Paperback)
This work is a continuation/culmination of the author's first work, From Elsewhere and as such is in my mind a much more important work in that he has had the benefit of reflection and feedback in extending his conclusions. He reviews the core ideas from the earlier work and introduces us to a channeled work that he has come to deeply respect-- The Ra Material from Don Elkins, Carla Rueckert (contactee), and James Allen McCarty. He injects quotes from this work throughout the book where they serve to amplify important points.
The gist of the author's thesis is that the Earth has been a playground/school for new souls that might be likened to spiritual delinquents on a holiday. They have been given free reign to make plenty of mistakes. He talks about Earth History, free will, the competing forces of service to self vs service to others in guiding the evolution of the planet and giving the new souls opportunities to grow and choose. It seems, however, that this crop of newbies are exceptionally slow learners and it is time for a harvest that will give Gaia a well-deserved rest from the marauders and push souls on the fence to make some hard choices. The Big Event will be a dimensional shift in consciousness that will come at the end of the Mayan calendar. To that end millions of spiritual paratroopers have volunteered to descend onto the planet with a helping hand to keep our vibrations on track and keep order during the confusion of the transition. These are those From Elsewhere. They are affiliated with off-planet guiding intelligences that are overseeing and balancing the energies and events to come, the designers of the Cosmic Plan. These troopers do not arrive with a full deck, they are pushed out of the womb with, in most cases, very little in the way of special knowledge or memory of what they are to do, or when or how. They need to acculturate, grow, suffer, and evolve themselves on a fast track so that when the time comes they will be able to empathize with the natives--so that they will be believed, respected and honored as a source of wisdom and guidance when the chips are down. These are not so much the abductees that have been so intimidated by the service to self half of the equation as the contactees that are guided by service to others faction called the Confederation by the author based on the Ra Material. It is clear that the author, a PhD who has made this issue his life work, has made a detailed study of the Ra Material. He presents charts, summaries, and conclusions from that material which are very valuable as an analysis to other Ra students. I say that as someone who has read the material. It is a slow, careful read which yields its secrets at a tedious, measured pace. Anyway, our troopers are here, wondering what to do, taking workshops, praying, meditating, confused, alienated, struggling, wondering why society is so violent and dysfunctional, reading the author's first book, refining their consciousness so that they will become steady and true to their spiritual principles in the face of challenge. Once they figure out what is going on, there is this longing for home--this looking up at the stars with a "get me out of here" plea. Many, perhaps even most, will not figure out their origin, but will simply lead "normal" lives, albeit more loving and helpful lives than their neighbors. After a period of resignation and acceptance of their task, their guidance nudges them through the hoops. Perhaps they will be spiritual teacher nurturing junior troopers, maybe a forest ranger, an activist, a yoga instructor, a Buddhist monk, a counselor, an educator, a mom to ultrasensitive precocious indigo children, a breathwork workshop leader, a metaphysical author, etc. They find their niche and many come to learn that they will be told what they need to know when they need to know it, all they need to do now is love unconditionally. In a key chapter entitled "A matter of purpose" the author says "In short, then, Wanderers (troopers) come to Earth simply of offer love and light--freely, openly, without consideration of reward." They are the warm bodies on the ground teaching by example, visible, active role models transforming those around them by direct action, something that is much harder to do if you are a disembodied master who is being tuned out via free will over the chatter of the latest "crisis" being presented on the evening news. They are in our faces, up close and personal. In another key chapter entitled "Why are they laughing" the author gives insights about the sources of resistance he has encountered to the results of his research: "...but why are they laughing instead of just asking questions? I think the final answer, which lightworkers and spiritual seekers may find disturbing, is that most people in this society are not seeking higher truth and couldn't care less about a wider vision of the universe. Which brings us back to the difference between `normal people' and those who say they are ET souls...Most people on Earth are content to live their lives according to the status quo--finding material, personal pleasures where they can, dull to the spark that could reveal greater life-meaning. The kind of aspiration, a yearning for personal transformation, is the dividing line between those who have chosen the positive spiritual path...from those who have yet to make a choice...most of them are likely to laugh at extraterrestrial and cosmic notions." It will come as no surprise to readers of this review, then, that most traditional UFO investigators have not been able to make the leap of understanding about the true nature of the contactee agenda. Their focus is on ships, sightings, photos, evidence, perhaps trauma counseling, and support groups--yoga instructors who hear voices are not part of their perception model. They don't know what to look for and what to ask and for the most part are not likely to catch on any time soon. And this is indeed what the author found when he was invited to speak at the Gulf Breeze Conference. "They were not able to see cosmic contact from the perspective of soul evolution." The rational-materialist mindset is basically incompatible with a true appreciation of cosmic purpose. Whereas many of the attendees got it, his fellow speakers, the "experts," "really did not get it." "But since many UFO researchers have little soul awareness and little interest in metaphysics of cosmic law, the fine points of universal morality, human free will, and spiritually polarized agendas are lost on them." That was a not-so-brief summary of Section I on the Cosmic Plan which fills the first half of the book. Section II discusses Soul Evolution in about forty pages with another thirty tacked on about Buddhism. Section III contains a collection of personal stories. It is followed by roughly twenty pages of helpful appendices. In short this is a book about spiritual awakening as experienced by a select group of seekers who feel they have come here From Elsewhere and who understand "it's all about quality of consciousness," loving the Creator and their brothers as thyself, dissolving the illusion of separation, living a life based of inner guidance from the Oneness. "Past, present and future exist simultaneously in a timeless, eternal present, always available and accessible if we have eyes to see." They also just happen to see Earth as a new kind of melting pot. See the New Earth listmania for other authors of interest. |
