DEAR THUNDERBIRD CHRONICLE/MT
I am enclosing an article (LA Times, article on mysterious death/suicide cases surrounding Dallas "guru" Terri Hoffman—ed.) that I came across and in reading through it it appears that one or more of these "victims" perhaps was acting as a medium by the giving up of their will/essence to another entity. My question is two-fold — is it possible for an "entity" to take over one's physical body (with permission) then turn around and destroy it and thus have nothing to express itself through again? and would the lost body have willingly given itself up to that "entity" if it would have been known beforehand of the imminence of impending annihilation—in other words—would they have done it if they would have known or could an entity get in pretending to be positive and then turn out to be negative? which leads me to second issue. Perhaps in a coming issue you could elaborate on "harvesting", especially in regards to polarization and why negative polarizations are "allowed" this continuum—also how/why/who/when etc. etc. Obviously this is an obscure concept to many on this plane of consciousness and we'd appreciate info on it.

(This is the letter the "P. S." of which was quoted last month, asking to discuss the bottom line or "absolute test" of a leader's positiveness for "screening purposes"; this was answered in MT's A Modest Proposal.)

HOW TO STUFF A WILD BLUE MEANIE

First of all, yes; negative entities can "get in" pretending to be positive, and do; and it is not a simple matter to determine the distinction: cf. this month's review of Carla Rueckert's book A Channeling Handbook. We consider Carla the best of all channelers, and at the same time the most knowledgeable and exacting in that field. Pick up her book and you'll find whole sections devoted strictly to the requirement for testing, challenging, summoning and banishing entities—an indispensable aspect of channeling which most practitioners know nothing about, manifest no recognition of the need for, or perform only perfunctorily! Consult this month's review also, as you will find something else discussed that's not so well known, i.e. that under the best circumstances with the most positive of entities, the very act of channeling itself if chronically practiced has a debilitating effect on the mind/body system of the host. This fact alone makes the subject a much more narrow and dedicatedly specialized discipline requiring a Calling of some magnitude, than would be assumed in light of the popular "garden party" phenomenon it's become. More than this: negative entities are by nature aggressive, and consider a passive opening as much an invitation as an active request; this is not good news considering the electromagnetic and atomic tears in the screening fields between the dimensions that characterizes the present state of inexorable, planetary-wide disintegration (as our collective psycho-biological "impressions" are being organized in the millennial transition to a "higher" or more integral state). The presence of these ever-widening breaches or tears cancels the deliberate energy-shield that's traditionally guarded the planet, and through the vulnerable breach an increasing "invasion force" of negative entities pours (cf. not only the Ra material which specifically warns of this, but the Secret of the Andes predating the Ra channeling by decades and specifying the Red Dragon or Orion forces by name).

Those who aren't or who refuse to be aware of this simply aren't paying attention; the uniform concurrence of UFO abduction-data from widely disparate sources, indicates clearly that "something's going on"; and despite the conditioning of those who occasionally gloss the character of it, it's almost all bad. This intensified presence means that such invasion and systemic "possession" of which you speak is not the exclusive hazard of channeling; it is sensitively subject to innumerable factors which lower the natural psycho-biological resistance, and this ranges from physical effects eroding the immunological response and depressing the systems to aggravated drug abuse, adverse psychological conditions in an increasingly problematic economy etc. While not every suicide or assault is induced by "little invisible entities" by any means, it must be understood that there is an increasingly great vulnerability to such influence.

The problem is really two-fold: it involves properly informing people of this very real threat, a task similar to that of educating people to the existence of microbes in the last century and displaying the same delicate factors which inevitably collect around anything having an intrinsically high potential for "psychic excitation" (so that one must be wary simultaneously of inducing the hair-trigger panic reaction, and of fatally understating the case for the self-same sake of that general psychological insecurity); and it involves as well the problem of determining the most effective means of counteracting such a threat, in practical terms, once the public is readied by the persuasion of evidential reason to accept the reality of the situation for what it is. Here the methodology suggested by those "experienced in the field", i.e. both channelers and those with abductee background etc., though converging on a similar "conclusion" are strangely limited in application. The spiritual conditioning of various subjects in both fields who've had success in invoking protection of the Light, challenging in the "name of Christ", etc. seems to suggest the essentially "spiritual" character of even physically-manifesting Negative Beings or phenomena. Yet this protective methodology has its limitations, underscored in the contrastive lack of success experienced by others with similar religious reflexes but less satisfactory results in repelling an attack or abduction. What is the differential operating here? Why does so promising a method of protective invocation have such randomly variable and unreliable results?

As we pointed out in our two-part essay of October-November, Channeling, UFOs etc., there can be successful response in such cases only when there is a corresponding sufficiency of substance or "spiritual capital" in reserve already, which distinguishes the system of the subject in advance for whatever reason. Thus, either the successfully "challenging" subject has, prior to the "crisis", put in adequate conscious work in aligning with the Light so invoked, or somewhere dormant but accessible in the "reincarnational" background of the subject well below the conscious threshold is a record of previous work, correlating with accomplishment in a more integral stage of development and abiding as an unknown "credit" to be drawn upon when necessary.

There is a passage in the Ra channeling which substantiates this teaching-clarification: when the channelers inquired about protection, the Ra entity responded by saying that beings incarnate here who've brought with them a latent record of "higher stage" accomplishment, though they are not consciously aware of it do have such "alignment" with the Light available to them as protection when and if they turn to or invoke it Others, however, have no such reserve-pattern of alignment to draw upon, so that inferentially when they turn to employ what is technically the very same mode of spiritual protection, there is no response from within themselves able to make such abstraction practically viable. This fact, however, while rendering such solutions as verbal challenges and conceptual invocations unsatisfactorily variable and contingent, nonetheless points directly to that "Solvent" containing the factor with the most universally-applicable constant The key to "success" in those random cases cited above, is the potential for immediate mind/body alignment which, in essence, creates an "electrification" of the spine.

The spine or cerebrospinal channel is the axis of consciousness and will; ordinarily, as we have previously learned (in the November essay "Why You Don't Create Your Own Reality", the second part of Channeling, UFOs... in the same issue etc.) the low-level patterns through which the normative, waking focus functions chronically displace the central value of Identity from self-congruence with the conscious channel, (where it would abide in awareness of its intrinsic Being as pure self-luminance aligned with the surrounding and informing Light) and deflects it into neurovegetative channels of the frontal plexuses and organs; entranced through lock-step ratios of those centers, will—or the force of the volitional axis—diffuses into polarized tensions of dichotomous identification-commitments, looped in subconscious codes processing the whole-being at a wasteful rate of metabolic entropy and net systemic loss.

This deflection of the force of Identity and the patterning processes through which perceptual and cognitive "grids" are aligned, in effect empties the cerebrospinal axis. The polarization and "nestling" of the multidimensional, patterning energy in the form of "kundalini" at the spinal base, is the equivalent of describing the emptying of the cerebrospinal channel and coded lockin of its volitional value through the subconscious plexuses and autonomic processes. The mind/body "electricity" of the central channel or cerebrospinal axis is, in the normative personality-expression of this physical plane, practically receded and diffused in entranced processing of mirror-deflective, anisometric ratios governing metabolic interactions of the "vagus" or frontal axis. It is this virtual emptiness or displacement of the conscious channel as "we" abide in lock-step trance of identification through the conditioning of subconscious processes, that stands in open invitation to be "filled" by any (alien) consciousness that would fancy to commandeer the subject's mind/body system from the vantage of a higher conscious integration.

Thus, mind/body alignment of the patterning-subconscious processes through ratios harmoniously congruent with the wholevalue of the Conscious Axis from which they derive, is equivalent to electrification of the spinal channel, reawakening and filling of the conscious/volitional systems directly. This activization serves to "fill" one's cerebrospinal passage with the full value of one's own innate Identity, establishing the tacit self-congruence of a primary awareness. This innate Self-luminance of the central axis is automatic proof against any "invasion", any hypnotic or overpowering psychic coercion, "takeover", attempted alien occupation of the central zone of one's own being etc. When you yourself are "at home", (the central axis quickened or electrically vivified so that the volitional systems are harmoniously integrated, coherently aligned in maximum unitive rapport with their own channel), there is no subliminal, spiritual "invitation" for abduction or occupation extended, and no possibility of such an alien occupation taking place. (Just note the disconcerting evidence of CAT scans and Ultrasound in the case of many UFO abductees; often there is foundevidence of foreign implants at the site of the frontal lobe—since the frontal lobe is part of the cerebrospinal system correlated with will, there is strong suggestion of an invasive presence that has simply planted its "flag of conquest" or colonization there).

This direct vivification or awakening of one's cerebrospinal system distinguishes the authentic or beneficial meditation practice, and it is clearly contrasted with the expected norm of "meditation" to which we've become accustomed. The "pacifying" model of meditation popularized by Maharishi and co. in response to the Western need for an adjustive quietude, served the superficial purpose for which it was called; but, as we learned in Part 2 of Channeling, UFOs etc., this generic meditation (cloned and copied in profusion as if it represented the sine qua non of meditative wisdom) merely serves to establish a temporary, systemic quiescence at the ordinary low level of mind/body integral barmony, so that the central channel or conscious axis is still deflected and drawn "offside", remaining essentially empty and non-electrified as its subliminal "whale-value" is borrowed by the subconscious patterning processes that slow one's pulse and regulate one's heartbeat The distinction between types of meditative systems is crucial; they are not all equivalent, and the sole reason that "superior" (extradimensional) Sources don't helpfully distinguish one from the other for the benefit of benighted earth-beings is the prohibitive consideration of infringing "free will", from the vantage of a disproportionate influence—except of course for the Negative beings who are all-too-willing to offer meditative methods and suggestions, which—tellingly—all turn out to be of the strictly "pacifying" and passivity-inducing type.

One element of the difficulty in presenting the general public with initiated knowledge of the presence of the Negative Beings altogether, is very much involved in both the Points previously cited, i.e. treading the delicate balance beside the "panic reaction" and furnishing an effective, generally useful means of counteracting or neutralizing the threat, efficiently "inoculating" against the malady; for when we proceed in the necessary process of this general education and awakening, we are obliged at the same time to point out the obvious fact that an uncommon research into and understanding of the subject is also responsible for, and naturally accompanies, obtaining of the effective Means. After all, there are only a few ways of getting workable information re the "Negative existence" altogether.

The information obtained from channeling is not firsthand, and requires continuous inspection. The recipient of the information has necessarily to check it as much as possible against facts, other accounts, conventional wisdom and alternative theories. Beyond that, the source of such information being "masked" and invisible by the very nature of the method, there is the trickier factor revolving around the capacity of the Negative itself to broadcast a propaganda belonging to its "angle of inclination" and the frequent tactic of the Negative to apparently give much of the game away in the process so that its own content will resonate in close correspondence to positive teaching as well as to the persuasive, primary emotional tone in the aftermath surrounding cases of abduction, cattle mutilation etc.—only to insinuate a subversive idea all the more potent to ensnare because of its verisimilitude.

Another "method" of obtaining information re the Negative beings, which has the virtue of belonging to the realm of firsthand experience, is that of personal "abduction" itself! This "experiential" method has unfortunately the deep drawback of belonging to the realm of victimization; the subject is "abducted" in the first place (not because of but) thanks to the ordinary level of mind-body integration characterizing the mass of humanity—an overall "organization" of the systems and centers which leaves the greater portion of potential dormant, and places the subject in a purely passive role with respect to the higher-order magnitude of the "negative" constitution. Thus the benefit of first-hand experience is here almost wholly offset by vulnerability to suggestion, posthypnotic order, psychological fear-reaction due to the overwhelming character of the recollection etc.

The only other, nonspeculative method of obtaining information re the Negative existence (also possessing the irreducible virtue of being experiential) is that of initiated empowerment where, under special Dispensation, the subject is allowed to view or intuit the Negative realms, without detection, without the interference of obfuscating "broadcasts" containing disinformation and from the vantage of a direct alignment—placing the operative systems of the subject at a level commensurate with the clear cognition natural to those realms, in either "positive" or "negative" sense.

This form of spiritual Intuition is not at all the same as the scattershot vagaries of what's come to be known, pejoratively, as "woman's intuition"; nor is it in any way related to the term employed by science as glorified designation for a projected "common sense" against which everything in modern physics seems to run contrary. "Intuition" as we intend the term signifies direct functioning, perceiving and cognizing through a value which (once integrated and aligned in consonance with it) is understood self-evidently as the deepest and least impeachable standard of verification possible. It signifies initiated access to or continuity with the fundamental value of Being, through which everything necessarily polarizes into relative expression and against which, therefore, everything may be most accurately known, gauged and evaluated (independent of sensorydata or facultative "perspective" but not exclusive of it, since all instrumentalities as well as the vivified soul of the Subject are informed by, and function in gyroscopic conformance to, that common term or universal measure).

After all, every mode of knowledge, every form of "knowing" asks inevitably the question of accurate verification, and ultimately stands or falls on the completeness of its "means". Direct adjustment with the Common Denominator of existence establishes optimum congruence with the most complete means, the whole-value of Being serving as standard or subliminal aim of all which appears in and through it Since such value is the central referent and common denominator of all worlds, planes and realms of expression, nothing is theoretically opaque or "off limits" to the subject polarized into conformance with its Resolving term; all places, points and beings (structurally consonant with the mind/body whole through which the standard of that value operates) are technically permeable to awareness according to supervision of the subject-focus by Higher Intelligence.

Intuition is then the most reliable gauge of evaluation, understood in this way. It's this primary spiritual sense to which the term originally referred; but since the possibility of a direct (unmediated) knowing based on overt Being rather than piecemeal approximation faded from the province of comprehension altogether, it has seemed to refer to the apparency of sensory experience or to the non-constructable vagaries of "hunch".

We may say that anyone whose "information" re these hidden realms is based on the latter methodology is, by virtue of everything involved in and implied by that realization, necessarily custodian of an initiated empowerment able to furnish the essential keys, to conduct direct vivification or electrified awakening of the conscious systems in a naturally harmonious and balanced manner proof against just such "negative" potential (every bit as much as the "pasteurization" process was legitimate proof against the bacilli of which people at the time were scarcely aware, though in mortal danger from its presence nonetheless).

The difficulty is simply that people, (conditioned to decades of real or perceived "charlatanism", "duplicity" and self-serving in the framework of "incarnate teachers" or—the killing term— "gurus", such as the current newspaper example you've enclosed) are now likely to anticipate the worst before they ever expect the best, and will be inclined to interpret the general effort at bringing the presence and reality of the Negative "higher-spiritual" beings to light as "self-serving", just as soon as the necessary and strictly accurate declaration is made that such teaching on the subject includes the most efficient and powerful proof against that negative potential.

Yet indeed what is "offered", as such, is that which has always been the traditional proof against "negative potential", i.e. positive spiritual and mind/body development. In keeping with the acceleration of the time, we've been graced with an appropriately "streamlined" and accelerating methodology, which takes full advantage of the "opening currents" and is therefore unencumbered by the acquired apparatus of most traditional methodology and practice; but the traditional value embedded in this modern teaching and initiatory Process remains constant

People must be apprised of the very real and increasing threat of that Negative presence, which is invasive and is not merely "one's own" subjective potential or projective displacement. At the same time, since there are those captious souls who will tend to presume, on the basis of any "charge" no matter how benign for a formal initiation and demonstrable Awakening, that such teaching on the "negative existence" is either invented or twisted to serve some imagined advantage, let us note that we've presented from the very outset the effective means of engaging a practiced stimulation and electric vivification of the consciousness-systems entirely for free, i.e. the Power Breath series. We are taking this instruction, at our expense, to cable access for further free benefit of the public. So, whether one wishes to take advantage of the more direct and accelerated means of spiritual/mind-body awakening through initiation requiring the inductive presence and balancing alignment of the Teacher (as will take place May 19), or whether you choose to a vail yourself of the free monthly instruction of Power Breathing, you are furnished the adequate means. There is no excuse to ignore the teaching, or to dismiss it out of hand. Is that fair enough?

The other problem in the presentation of this work, has to do with emphasis; the importance of Initiated empowerment is not chiefly or exclusively tied to the existence and potential of the "negative beings". There may at times (as now, for example) seem to be an emphasis in this teaching stressing such negative presence, but this is only because it has been so underemphasized in previous teachings (or not recognized at all!), is such a continued source of public concern and inquiry (as your own letter demonstrates), is so misunderstood and generally misrepresented where acknowledged, and is a subject which always has—and should—come first chronologically in any real spiritual education since "psychic selfdefense" and protection must be the primary concern of anyone knocking at that Higher Door (or anyone else, for that matter). The real value of initiated empowerment is located in its agency of positive spiritual growth and the balanced development of mind/body integral harmony, in its absolute amplification of the Good rather than in its simple screening of the "bad".

As your newspaper clipping suggested, the "negative" cast fell suspiciously over this person's "teaching" about the time she began emphasizing the "fighting of evil", rather than simply positive development. And this is certainly a hallmark of cultish teachings, i.e. that they engage the emotional allegiance of the followers by locking them into an unreal "battle" between good and evil, so that their security is perceived to be in contributing to and sticking with "the group", against "them". However, the necessary education re the Way and existence of Negativity (especially as such teaching is to be found here, and in the Ra channelings) is not and never will be the engagement of the subject in a resistance or power struggle against "evil". Rather, it proceeds on the simple assumption that "forewarned is forearmed". The best way to negate the influence of "evil" is to make "energetic progress in the good", as the I Ching sagely counsels.

Thus neither Southern Crown, MT or the Thunderbird will ever serve as a source to furnish some glamorous "weaponry", some magical armoring with which to "do battle" with the denizens of the Dark. There is no "war" being waged as such between the "Lightcon an" warriors of the Sun and the dragons of the deep, for that is a fatefully-falsifying image of the real terms of the "heavenly contention". MT has no "light-saber" to pass out amongst you other than the electrified Sword of your own, volitional-spinal axis properly Awakened and conserved through initiatory empowerment There is no instruction for "contending" with evil, but only for cultivating the value of one's own higher positive nature.

Thus, if you suppose yourself basically "positive", but create negative effects through thoughtlessness, through omission or commission, be attentive right away to correcting for such carelessness. If you have responsibility for taking care of, looking after or serving others, make sure you dispatch those obligations in kindness rather than in condescension or coercion. Indeed make sure that kindness characterizes your behavior even in circumstances and through situations that don't seem automatically to warrant it. If you are profiting by others' misfortune, forswear any such profit immediately. If you thrive in a business or through investments which specifically capitalize by putting people out of work, or displacing people from their homes, get out of such business now, and rid yourself of such investments immediately. Quit trying to get more than you give, and always give more than the "money's worth".

That's how you "fight evil"; and it's the only way you can. MT has no more "glamorous" instruction than that (We'll bet you never imagined spiritual development could be that difficult!)
