Hello everyone,

If you are only going to purchase one book about every aspect of 2012, far beyond the Mayan Calendar, this is the one:

Beyond 2012: Catastrophe or Ecstasy--A Complete Guide to End-of-Time Predictions



Click here for Beyond 2012 at Amazon<img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=apc-20&amp;l=ur2&amp;o=1" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" />

This books is absolutely the best book about 2012 as well as being one of the best books I have ever read. I know the author and can personally vouch for him. There is new "new age", conspiracy, speculative or any other bias in Beyond 2012, only the facts as we know them to be.

Here is my Amazon review of Beyond 2012 by Geoff Stray:

As we rapidly approach the year 2012, initially brought to prominence by its now famous association with the "end of the Mayan calendar", there seems to have been a veritable avalanche of books published purporting to address the period leading up to this extremely important event.

Click here for Beyond 2012 at Amazon<img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=apc-20&amp;l=ur2&amp;o=1" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" />

However, due to its potential importance to all mankind, it is absolutely crucial for as many people as possible to be in full possession of all the true facts as we know them to be at this juncture, to understand their meaning and significance, and most importantly presented without any bias in line with current "new age" and similar trends.

Beyond 2012 by Geoff Stray is an absolute masterpiece of 2012 research, analysis and factual documentation, and one by which all others will be measured. Geoff has executed an absolutely brilliant, and to what most would be daunting task of thoroughly researching, analysing and presenting the facts and nothing but the facts in an extremely detailed, conscientious, impartial, professional, compelling and above all highly understandable way, without the slightest hint of personal bias or creative interpretation of the facts.

If you are looking for a book about the potential events associated with 2012, and these are events that everyone on Earth without exception should understand and be prepared for in the next few years, then Beyond 2012 is the only such book you should ever need in your library.

If you also require a book that deals with the Maya aspect of the 2012 scenarios, I would highly recommend Maya Cosmogenesis 2012: The True Meaning of the Maya Calendar End-Date by John Major Jenkins as the ideal companion book to Beyond 2012.

Every year crop formations, known as "crop circles" appear, mostly in an areas of Southern England, that include considerable complexity and symbology, increasingly with reference to 2012 and the Mayan calendar. Crop formations are in and of themselves incredible creations, not of a terrestrial origin, that often appear in the form of extremely complex formations several hundred feet across in a matter of seconds offering the best tangible evidence and information we have access today on Maya, 2012 and other important matters. This book is highly recommended as the best insight into everything related to crop formations.

Hello everyone,

One subject I receive many emails about, especially as we near the potential events, is 2012, initially brought to prominence as the so called "end of the Mayan calendar".

In fact the Mayan calendar is only one integral part of considerably larger and independent evidence from multiple sources of absolutely crucial events for all mankind around the central date 11:11 GMT, 21 December, 2012.

We do not yet know exactly what will happen or indeed if anything will happen, but with the increasing evidence it will, and the absolutely massive implications for mankind and the planet Earth, now would be a good time to start these discussions.

I will be adding recommended books, sites and other resources very soon, but to start things off below is a copy of my newsletter of some weeks ago on the subject of 2012.

This is a very serious issue so please can we keep it serious. While conspiracies, ET's, channeling and other factors all have their part to play, they must be kept in perspective.

This subject is extremely relevant to the Astral Pulse because as we near 2012 such experiences as spontaneous Out of Body Experiences, Astral Projection, Lucid Dreams etc. could well become increasingly prevalent; and we need to discuss them here.

Also, the most likely outcome, if there is one, will be a "stripping away" of time and space and a merging with the 4th Density; i.e. the Astral worlds; again, one of our main topics of discussion. here.

With a calm, balanced, knowledgable resource, we can approach 2012 with joy rather than any negative emotion, because if 2012 does happen it will be a cause for great joy.

-----The 2012 Prophecies-----

One question that frequently arises is that of the year 2012.

Many people will have heard that December 21 2012 is a day of great
significance, mostly in the context of that date being the very end
of the Mayan calendar and everything that implies.

The big question on the minds of most people is "what is the
significance of this date"? What will happen to Earth? What will
happen to all of us?

This is a huge subject, and one that goes way beyond the scope of
this newsletter. However, it is also an extremely important
subject, and one that I will be focusing on through various
resources in the future. Today however we will take a look at some
of the basics surrounding 2012.

What is the real significance of December 21 2012?

The reason this date has become so well-known is because it is the
date that represents the "end of the Mayan calendar".

Why is this so important?

It is important because the Mayan's, like many of the ancient races
of millennial ago, were in fact extremely advanced in many areas. By
"advanced" we do not necessarily mean in terms of "technology",
which in itself does not mean advancement at all, but as
astronomers, mathematicians and builders; among other things.

Like the ancient Egyptians, to whom they were almost certainly
related at some time, probably linked through the legendary
continent of Atlantis, which is not actually a legend, the Mayans
built the most amazing structures that defy explanation; being
beyond beyond the capabilities of so called "modern man.

The Mayans were also incredible observers, mathematicians, and
keepers of ancient and sacred knowledge. Using these abilities they
were able to construct calendars which not only chart time, but
also charted the cosmos, and forthcoming great world events.

We know that such an event, perhaps even the final event, is to
take place on December 21 2012. The big question is what?

This is a question that will be addressed in the future both here
and through other resources which will be announced in due course.
Only be endeavoring to fully understand 2012 and putting it into
the right context can we be fully prepared for this event.

In fact; there are three major issues that we need to consider and
to face in the next few years. These are:

1. December 21 2012
2. Earth planetary changes
3. The agenda of terrestrial and extra-terrestrial factions

Although at first glance these might seem separate, they are in
fact linked in various ways.

But today let us take a look at some of the very basics of 2012.

The ancient Mayans had many advanced abilities and most
importantly ancient knowledge, probably originating from sources
that are not immediately apparent at this time. Among these
abilities were mathematics, astronomy, and prophecy based upon past
world and astronomical events.

The Mayans knew that nothing ever happens by "chance" in the
Universe, even though it often seems like it from a narrow human,
temporal experiential perspective. The Mayans knew that everything
happens in cycles of varying lengths, cycles that correspond
precisely to past and future cosmic and world events.

Many of these events are the result of the one factor common to
everything in the Universe without exception; Energy, which can
manifest at any level from the Universal to the individual.

This is why Astrology, and I do not mean the "horoscopes" of the
tabloids, I mean genuine astrology, is so significant, charting as
it does the effects of a confluence of Energy being prevalent at the
time of arrival on Earth, and which has so much influence over our
physical life. Energy is everything!

The ancient Maya knew this, and were able to observe the effects of
these confluences and events, and thus, with their seemingly
amazing mathematical abilities, track future events.

The Maya had several calendars of varying lengths, the most
significant of which were the "Short Count" and the "Long Count".

The Short Count is compiled by combining the "tzolkin cycle" with
the solar year and the Venus cycle of 584 days, thus generating
short periods of 13, 52 and 104 years.

It is however the "Long Count" cycle that is of the most interest,
the end of which is also the end of all Mayan calendars.

The Long Count is derived from nested cycles of days multiplied at
each level by the key Mayan number, 20, resulting in the
following periods:

1 Kin which is a day
20 Uinal
360 Tun
7200 Katun
144000 Baktun

The only deviation to multiplying by 20 is the tun level
where the uinal period is instead multiplied by 18 for the 360 day
tun.

The Maya used this counting system to track an unbroken sequence of
days from the time it was inaugurated.

Long Count dates are separated by dots. For example: 6.19.19.0.0
equals 6 baktuns, 19 katuns, 19 tuns, 0 uinals and 0 days. Each
baktun has 144000 days, each katun has 7200 days, and so on.

If we add up all the values, 6.19.19.0.0 indicates a total of
1007640 days have elapsed since the Zero Date of 0.0.0.0.0. The
much discussed 13-baktun cycle is completed 1872000 days, 13
baktuns, after 0.0.0.0.0. This period of time is the Mayan "Great
Cycle" of the Long Count.

Each Baktun has corresponded with a major cycle on Earth,
which are too extensive and complex to go into here. Suffice it to
say that The 13 baktuns and 20 katuns collectively represent a
perfect fractal of the 260 unit 4th dimensional timing matrix
spread out as a chronotopology that we simply call "history".

Each katun represents one of 260 kin. The baktuns represent a set
of morphogenetic fields, each with 20 lesser waves rising in a
pitch of climax during the 13th and final baktun 1620 CE to 2012 CE.

This final baktun represents the time where, driven my the ego,
materialism and money, "history" and therefore mankind has reached
a saturation point, where "history" simply has nowhere else to go.
And it is this event that was always charted precisely by the Mayan
Long Count calendar to coincide with the end of this great cycle.

Historically it can be demonstrated that every quarter of the long
cycle, approximately every 6400 years, there has been a major
catastrophic Earth event for the last three such quarters. These
include great floods, earthquakes, and other global events. Such
events are documented as the "great flood", the destruction of
Atlantis, etc.. The final quarter is December 21, 2012.

It should also be mentioned that other mathematical systems,
notably the Chinese I-Ching, which was also once used as a
calendrical system, also point to the year 2012, as do other lesser
known systems it seems.

So these are the calendrical and mathematical considerations, but
there are other considerations.

On December 21, 2012 there will be a galactic alignment of the
"galactic equator", and what the Mayans refer to as "The Sacred
Tree", with our star, the Sun, at the very centre of this alignment.

This in itself is no coincidence. This alignment has on our solar
system astrological, astronomical and Universal considerations, and
in particular the corresponding Energy effects both on Earth and
indeed the entire solar system.

So that, in extremely basic terms in the interest of keeping it
simple for now is the basics of the math and associated events from
a historical and chronological perspective relative to the Earth
space-time continuum.

The question is; what does it all really mean for us?

The honest answer is we do not really know at this stage at least
in the process, although I and others are very much tracking it.

There is however too much data and historical evidence to conclude
that nothing will happen. The only question is in what form will it
take; the possibilities including physical, Energy or Spiritual, or
indeed a combination of of all of these.

If we look at solid evidence we can observe the following factors:

Schumann Cavity Resonance: The Schumann Resonance can be likened to
the "heartbeat" of Earth. Scientifically it is due to the space
between the surface of the Earth and the conductive ionosphere
acting as a waveguide. The limited dimensions of the earth cause
this waveguide to act as a resonant cavity for electromagnetic
waves in the extra low frequency ELF band.

Historically the Schumann Resonance has held steady at a frequency
of around 7.83Hz, however in recent years Schumann Resonance has
increased to as high as 12Hz, the highest possible believed to be
13Hz.

Earth Magnetic Field: The magnetic field of the earth gives rise to
the magnetic poles as used for navigation purposes. This magnetic
effect is caused by Earth behaving like a giant elecro-magnet
caused by the molten iron core and the rotation of the Earth.

The magnetic field of Earth has been progressively reducing over the
years, and in fact appear to be doing so proportional to Schumann
Resonance although they may not be directly connected.

Evidence of this can be seen by the fact that some sea mammals such
as dolphins, porpoises an whales use the magnetic poles for
navigation purposes, and there has been a large increase in these
creatures going off-course and beaching themselves.

Finally, extinctions of species on Earth is 100 to 1000 times
higher than the historical average, being greater than at any time
in fact since the last dinosaur extinction 65 million years ago.

So what does the future hold for us?

The truth is we still do not know. Everything I have summarised
today could be a series of coincidences or they could all converge
to point to some major world event. We just do not know and there
is certainly no value in speculation.

It would be totally inappropriate to state for example, as some
are, that "the world will end in 2012". The entire scenario is far
too complex to make sweeping, dogmatic statements of that nature.

Although some event seems likely, we do not know the scale of such
an event, how it will manifest or how it will affect the planet,
humans and all life, or how long the entire process will take.

One thing we do know beyond all doubt is that everyone will survive
and be the better for the experience; the only question is in what
form,
physical, Astral or Spiritual.

One thing is clear however, everyone has a window of opportunity to
change for the better. The next few years could be spent evaluating
your life, your relationship with fellow man, animals and the
planet, and then taking the appropriate steps to become as aligned
and prepared as possible for any coming events.

Earth has been a major learning opportunity, an opportunity to
evolve. if, and I do say if the physical planet is to come to an
end, then what happens next on an individual level will depend
entirely on where you are Spiritually at that precise time.
Consequently there has never been a better time to place yourself
in the best possible light in preparation for whatever is to come.

This is one of the major reason I wrote Our Ultimate Reality, which
sets out these vital steps.

Again though, and this is most important,every single person
will survive. We are all immortal, Divine Beings, aspects of the
Supreme Being, and our true destiny is far greater than the
temporal learning experience of this planet we call "Earth", our
lives upon which are as the blink of an eye in comparison to all
eternity.

Everyone, sooner or later, regardless of this Earth event we call
"2012" will move on to sphere of life and reality that are glorious
beyond the remotest comprehension of Earthly man, and that is the
true destiny and objective of everyone on the sacred path back to
The Source, The Prime Creator, some simply call "God".

In Peace, Light and Truth,

Adrian.

Hello Sharpe,

Quote from: Sharpe on September 25, 2006, 15:03:51
How would killing urself, NOT solve all your problems? You will be totally lifted off this world, and cease to exist. That's pretty much solved to me?

You haven't been paying attention  :-)

I suggest you read this entire thread and you will receive the answer to your assertion; which is erroneous.

Best regards,

Hello thenoob,

You did the right thing by raising your feelings here; it is always a good thing to get a wider perspective.

As for "what is the point?"; all you need to know is that there is a "point"; otherwise you would not be here at all. The "point" might not be immediately obvious, but you can be sure there will be a meaning in there somewhere, a meaning that will become clear in the future.

Perhaps this situation itself is a test even.

Believe me; even though I do not know your exact situation, I have seen many, many people come back from the brink of situations that really do see hopeless and have gone on to live the life of their dreams. Remember; it is always the darkest before the dawn.

Kind regards,

Adrian.

Hello Blade5x

Quote from: blade5x on September 23, 2006, 18:21:05And about re-incarnation... I don't think it's real. I think this is our only trip - we only go around once. Think about it, unless new souls are being created every second by God, which I don't think I've heard from any serious religion, the current amount of existant souls is not enough to supply our exponentially growing population! No one knows for sure that we come back a second time - so make the best of, and live the longest you can incase this is the only time around.

That is a common misunderstanding. You are thinking in the temporal confines of space and time which are illusions. In the Eternal Now, beyond space and time, every Soul that exists, has ever existed and ever will exists already exists;a Soul only becomes bound to the space-time continuum for a time when the Soul incarnates.

Also, as I mentioned before, individual incarnations do not reincarnate, that is why no one in the Astral remembers and incarnation or intends to reincarnate, all reincarnations are relative to the Higher-Self.

Best regards,

Adrian.

Hello thenoob,

Quote from: thenoob on September 22, 2006, 18:54:50
Thanks for your reply.
One thing that I don't completely grasp about your theory is that this must apply to everyone who dies, suicidal or not. So if an alcoholic dies in a car crash they will still have to deal with their addiction on the other side. If an old, miserable man dies but lived a long productive life, he will still be a miserable soul. Or do only suicides get the unhappy ending of living in torment on the other side?
I mean nobody has a storybook life.. it just goes and goes and we deal with our S then ends, so it seems everyone would have to deal with the problem you discussed.
Also according to your theory, this implies that the soul is born along with the body, as opposed to one neutral soul choosing to enter a body, then dying and choosing another body. According to your theory our souls are intertwined with our physical existence and the stamp of identity carries over to the other side, as opposed to the soul shedding the skin and moving on without being bound by physical issues.
Just wondering if you could clarify how this works.

Thank you James for your excellent and detailed explanation.

Noob; It is more than a theory I assure you. Many people seem to erroneously believe that "death" changes people fundamentally; it doesn't. The only thing that changes is changing from a physical to a non-physical state of being, and living on a higher vibration; e.g. in the Astral worlds.

The truth is when a person "passes on" they retain the same character, attitudes, thoughts and so on, as well as an Astral body that appears like the physical body but younger. So whatever issues you experienced in the physical world you take with you to the Astral.

People often ask me if people who commit suicide are "punished" by the Universe/God. Well the truth is The Universe is perfect and we all create our own reality, so a person that commits suicide also creates their own punishment. This is because they have to observe the issues left behind without being able to resolve those issues, thereby failing in the mission of that incarnation, and they have to observe the grieving relatives left behind, and they have to meditate on what might have been but can no longer be. And these are not vague thoughts; without the encumbrance of a physical brain these thoughts are more real than they ever would have been in the physical world.

Incarnation is very misunderstood. It is not the person who passed on that reincarnates again. That person; e.g. you will never reincarnate again, so do not get the idea that you can reincarnate yourself out of this situation; you definitely cannot.

We all have a Higher-Self, and the Higher-Self is who we really are. Each incarnation is an aspect of our Higher-Self. When the Higher-Self has collected enough experience though sending many different "messengers" to experience Earth, the Higher-Self then assumes the identity of the final incarnation and continues as a whole on the sacred path as the "sum and experience of all the parts".

A good analogy is a jelly fish. Think of the big lump of jelly as the higher self, and each of the tentacles that hang down from the jelly as each incarnation.

So this means that if you fail in one incarnation to achieve a mission, that incarnation still lives on, but the Higher-Self will send another aspect of His/Her self to get it right next time. So each person might have hundreds or thousands of themselves in the Astral at the same time, and yes you can all have a meeting together  :-)

Of course each incarnation evolves back to the Higher-Self eventually, just as the Higher-Self evolves to the next level and so on.
So really; suicide is no escape as countless people have discovered.

Everyone should have total trust in the Universe and have the courage to face all issues that they came here to face. If all else fails just throw your entire faith in the Universe; the Universe will never, ever let you down.

Kind regards,

Adrian.

Thanks for all the replies. What I was most interested in were the spiritual experiences, aspects and consequences of a suicide. That website dealing with this angle was very interesting. The other rhetoric is sort of wasted on me and is unnecessary. I can't know for certain how I will behave once I am face to face with the end however, but I know that I don't see it as if I'm running away from problems or being cowardly, I see it more as achieving peace and moving on. In my case it is my mature decision. Now it is just a matter of tying loose ends.
I have also noticed that my spiritual energies seem to have completely ceased. While I was able to fall into the deep blackness about 3-4 a week regularly the past month, the past week I have hit a brick wall. This may be the result of a prayer from my friend who was trying to protect me. She knows what I am thinking and knows that I would be vulnerable to all dark entities in the astral looking to prey upon someone vulnerable.

Hello thenoob,

One of the biggest consequences faced by a person who suicides is the realisation that after making the transition to the non-physical realms, the Astral, nothing changes except for one thing; they are no longer able to do anything about whatever it is they thought they were escaping. They feel the same, think the same, and still face whatever caused them to take such drastic action. However, the situation is worse due to the fact that, in the absense of a physical body, they can no longer remedy the situation and have to live with it.

The truth is that we all chose to incarnate into the physical world knowing the issues we would face, and knowing that we can only evolve by overcoming them.

You can be sure, beyond any doubt, that suicide is no escape; quite the contrary.

Kind regards,

Adrian.

Quote from: Vvid1012 on September 21, 2006, 14:48:06
Adrian, I don't think patterns was declaring astral projection false, rather that Frank was basically open to his own interpretation and that's it.  I can't quite recall precisely, but Frank also discarded what we call astral and that there is only different focuses... so thats a contradictory statement.

Hello,

I understand what you are saying, but I really do not believe Frank's absolute position on the Astral is different to anyone elses; he just expressed it in a different way.

Most people believe that Astral Projection is a projection away from the physical body to the Astral body. It isn't. We never project away from anything.

We are multi-dimensional, or more correctly multi-density/multi-vibrational Beings. We concurrently exist everywhere in the Universe at all levels at all times. What changes is our focus. When we project we are projecting consciousness to another level of vibration, corresponding to one of an infinite number of bodies. While "out of body" we travel by re-focussing on another locale or vibration. So if we meet someone else we are not travelling to see them, we are focussing on their vibration, and we thus arrive. Everything is Mind, Energy and Vibration; there is nothing else.

So what Frank taught was when we project it is a projection along a continuum of consiousness within the Mind; which is absolutely true.

I realise he was very "definite" about his ideas; but that was Frank  :-) At least he was not afraid to tell it like it is rather than surrounding it in a whole load of mystical mumbo jumbo which is nothing to do with true inner travels.

Frank always taught the best time to project is at night, utilising natural processes; and I agree with that completely.

Kind regards,

Adrian.

hehe.....

Frank believed a lot of things....... but the 'problem' was that he believed what he experienced was the TRUTH. Harath... Freda... bla bla... alll existing in his mind.

Many here follow him... but Frank was kidding himself!

He talked about the belief system terrorties.... and he says he knows where he will end up after 'death' 

hehe

but Frank fell into a trap. It was all in his mind - he believes there is such a thing as an 'ultimate reality'

Funny thing is.... the future only exists as a concept.  Frank is kidding himself.


That is a very profound statement coming from someone who did not know Frank and clearly does not know the inner realities either.

Astral projection is very real, Out of Body Experiences are very real and the Astral realms are very real. Regarding the Astral, you can either discover it now or wait until you pass on; but you will discover the truth sooner or later.

The future does not exist as a concept, it is a quantum probability, but I do not see what that has to do with Frank.

I knew Frank better than most, and I know beyond doubt he was/is genuine. I have no idea what became of him though.

Is the format of D.P.P. similar to O.U.R. (which seemed like an encyclopedia)...or is the new books more like a how to book?

I've read and studied some of these psychic stuff, how whould someone like me benefit from buying the books? Because it seems like there are lots of free info on the web, and I'm not sure if it's worth the investement.....

Hello Orgybus,

These books are more of the "how to" type although of course they do include information as well.

There is free information on the web about alot of things :) But for the most part it is a page or two of someones beliefs or experience; good though it may be. These books are collectively hundreds of pages of proven methods.

Hello Kwibonga,

Actually I have thought about creating such a directory, but as you say, sifting through all of those claiming to be psychics to find the few that genuinely are could be very time consuming, if not impractical.

My research leads me to believe that there are very few genuine psychics to be found on hotlines. In fact I have yet to find any. As I mentioned in my newsletter, you find those with genuine psychic abilities do not feel the need to charge by the minute.

Of course that isn't to say that there are no genuine psychics using psychic hotlines, but even if there are, finding a genuine one would be difficult.

The main issue is that the psychic business truly is a billion dollar industry, and those at the top are fiercely protective of their business.

I will certainly consider this further; thank you again for your input.

Best regards,

Adrian.

Hello everyone,

I have today launched a new set of books dedicated to Developing Psychic Powers.

http://www.developingpsychicpowers.com

A copy of the newsletter is attached below.

Kind regards,

Adrian.


Those who have Our Ultimate Reality, and many of you receiving this
newsletter today, will have read my chapter on "Psychics".

Many of you who know me, or read the forums, will already know of my
considerable and increasing concern at what has become nothing less
than a disgrace, and probably the biggest single scam on the
Internet today. I am referring to the so called "psychic hotlines".

10 years ago it was very difficult to locate and verify a person
with genuine psychic powers that could be reliably and accurately
used for others, and who would actually be willing to provide a
"psychic reading".

Such a quest would involve the making of many enquiries in the
right places, obtaining the names of psychics by referral and
recommendation from others, following up references and finally,
only after everything is confirmed as genuine, contacting the
psychic and booking a "sitting". Even then the wait for a sitting
could often be weeks or even months for an exceptional psychic.

Then along came the Internet and all of a sudden there appears
thousands of "psychics", usually with mystical sound names like
"Clairvoyant Clare", "Tarot Tom", "Psychic Sue", "Mystic Maisie",
or even names like "Family Speciality Psychic", not to mention
numerous other totally contrived and very pretentious names.

These people can be found on "psychic hotline" web pages, listed
with their premium rate telephone numbers costing up to $5 per
minute or more, along with a mystical looking photograph, which is
often fake, and tempting you will all manner of claims and promises.

Can this situation be real?

The answer is; absolutely not! There is no question about it.

In my view, from my own research and analysis, many of these so
called "live hotline psychics" are nothing more than opportunists,
con people and charlatans who have discovered the perfect scam. It
is the perfect scam because it is the only scam that cannot be
conclusively proven one way or the other.

I have discovered during my extensive research into this matter
that many of these people are out-of-work actors and similar who
have been trained in the art known as "Cold Reading".

Here is the official dictionary definition of "Cold Reading":

"Cold reading is a technique used by salespeople, interrogators,
hypnotists, psychics, graphologists, palmists, astrologers, con-men
etc. to convince another person that they know more about them than
they actually do. Generally, the cold reader will make a series of
vague statements, will observe the subject's reactions, and then
will refine the original statements according to those reactions.
The technique is sometimes applied in order to falsely convince an
audience that the reader possesses psychic abilities".

This is a very accurate reflection of Internet "psychic hotlines".

Others are people who simply register with a psychic hotline
service, give themselves a glitzy name and fake photo, and simply
answer the phone at home whenever it rings for another client.

Here is how it works: the dollars per minte premium rate telephone
numbers listed on Internet websites are automatically re-directed
to the house of the psychic reader, who will then simply pick up
the call whenever a client phones.

Very often these "psychics" are totally unprepared, because they
really do not know whether it is a client phoning, or simply a
friend or relative.

So these so called "psychics" are often doing the housework, making
meals or even tending to a very young child when the phone rings
from another psychic hotline client. How can anyone, even with
genuine psychic abilities, suddenly, at a moments notice, switch
from doing one of these,often stressful tasks to providing an
accurate, thoughtful, and sensitive "psychic reading".

The answer quite simply is they cannot. Yet the client is still
expected to pay dollars per minute for the privilege with
absolutely no recourse when the "reading turns out to be a total
sham.

Worse, the "psychic hotline" industry has become so huge, with
billions of dollars at statek, that the operators of the "psychic
hotline" services have sometimes become little more than pimps.

They recruit teams of "psychic readers", without any verification
of their psychic abilities, and then put huge pressure on them to
"perform" and make money. They use all manner of tactics to ensure
their "team" makes plenty of money for them, much of which is
similar to "vice", including the "client" being a secondary
consideration, only existing as a source of profit.

Underperforming, in terms of profit, "psychic readers" are
punished, often financially or by being placed down the "ratings"
where they will receive fewer calls from clients, and getting paid
less for the calls they do receive.

So there is always considerable pressure on "psychic readers" to
place the emphasis on profit raher than the needs of the client,
many of who are vulnerable, desperate and often grieving for a lost
loved one.

These so called "psychic hotline services" are nothing more than
modern day, electronic "fortune telling", but instead of being
treated as light entertainment, they are taken very seriously.

Of course, if they are approached from this perspective, for
example for pure entertainment, or just to have a chat with someone
to make you feel better when you feel you cannot speak with someone
close to you, then that is fine; providing they are used in that
context.

These psychic hotlines often offer a few minutes for free. During
these minutes the "psychic" will hook the client by making
statements designed to make the client want to know more.

Many of them use tricks to get people to keep telephoning. For
example; they will state that something important to the client
will happen by a certain date. When it does not happen the client
will anxiously phone back to find out what happened, only to be
given a plausible explanation and yet another date.

And so it goes on.

I could continue with similar examples for pages. Instead however I
have prepared a 38 page document entitled "The Psychic Report",
which details the entire psychic hotline scam, how to thwart a
psychic every time, and how to proceed safely.

The Psychic Report can be obtained from:

http://www.developingpsychicpowers.com

It is not only psychic hotlines, it seems that many of the high
profile "television" or "stage" psychics are using similar cold
reading methods with large audiences.

For example, a very well known television psychic, when asked by an
often distraught member of the audience as to the whereabouts of a
missing person, always says words to the effect of "I see water,
lots of water"; implying the person had drowned and never been
found. This of course sounds plausible and cannot be disproven.

On one show she said "I see water; lot of water" to a grieving lady
in the audience who asked if she could tell her the whereabouts of
her missing son. The lady in the audience then said; "but he was
last seen in a burning building". The "psychic" then replied "he is
with me now and tells me that it was due to the fireman's hose".

This really is totally unacceptable. These are real people with
real issues, often having lost loved ones, who are being cynically,
used for popular entertainment and cynical sensationalism.

The Psychic Report, which I wrote after considerable investigation
over two years, will reveal everything you need to know about the
"psychic industry"; again the page to obtain your gratis copy is:

http://www.developingpsychicpowers.com

Many people have asked,and continue to ask me whether psychic
powers are genuine, if anyone can develop them, and if so how.

The answer is a very emphatic yes!

This is one of the most unfortunate aspects of the psychic hotline
scam industry. The participants, most of whom have made zero
effort to even understand what psychic powers really are, much less
taken the time to learn and practice them, are causing generally
people to lose faith and belief in the existence of psychic
abilities. People are totally disillusioned and understandably so.

The fact is, psychic powers really do exist and anyone at all can
learn how to develop them with the right information. Everyone,
without exception has latent psychic abilities, which, once
developed, can be totally relied upon, and can be used for your own
purposes at any time and anywhere at will.

Two years ago I came to the conclusion therefore that if I am to
show people the truth about "psychic hotline" services, it is also
equally important to show people how to develop your own, natural,
psychic powers, powers which everyone, without exception possesses.

I have therefore prepared the "Developing Psychic Powers" course,
which has been very carefully constructed to give you the very best
possible opportunity of developing your own, natural psychic powers.

Again, full details at: http://www.developingpsychicpowers.com

The Developing Psychic Powers course leaves absolutely nothing out.
In this series of three books absolutely every possible aspect of
Developing Psychic Powers is encompassed in considerable detail.

These same methods have been used for decades by people of all
ages, circumstances and general abilities to learn a wide range of
psychic powers, and I guarantee that there is no better, more
extensive or more comprehensive course for developing psychic
powers available anywhere.

Those who have acquired my other books and book collections will
know that I never compromise in any way, and that the books contain
everything I state they contain, and numerous testimonials are a
witness to that fact. Plain and simple, if I did not sincerely
believe this to be absolutely true, I would not offer them at all.

Soon I will be making each book in the series available separately,
but to celebrate the launch I am, for a short time, offering all
three books for the price of two.

Further, by purchasing soon you will also receive, absolutely free,
two additional books that compliment the main books perfectly;
these books alone are normally worth $74.

Not only that, but anyone taking advantage of this opportunity
will, again for a short time only to celebrate the launch of
Developing Psychic Powers, also receive three further mystery
gifts, not mentioned on the web page, worth an additional $111.

So in summary, here is what you can receive for a short time only
to celebrate the launch of Developing Psychic Powers:

Psychic Power Secrets
Clairvoyance Power Secrets
Telekinesis Power Secrets

Plus:

Psychomancy Power Secrets
Mental Power Secrets

Plus:

Three additional valuable mystery gifts.

Plus: a $30 discount from the ongoing price.

A total value of $326 for a short time only.

I will not take anymore space today in this newsletter telling you
about Developing Psychic Powers, but I am delighted to have finally
reached the point, after much work, I can tell you about it.

You can obtain your free copy of The Psychic Report and read the
full details of the Developing Psychic Powers course at:

http://www.developingpsychicpowers.com

By subscribing to the Developing Psychic Powers newsletter not only
will you receive The Psychic Report, you will also each day receive
a detailed description of the course, and also receive, from time
to time, a completely separate Psychic Powers Newsletter.

Until next week when we will return to discuss other important
matters.

In Peace, Light and Truth,

Adrian.

but to celebrate the launch I am, for a short time, offering all
three books for the price of two.

Further, by purchasing soon you will also receive, absolutely free,
two additional books that compliment the main books perfectly;
these books alone are normally worth $74.

Not only that, but anyone taking advantage of this opportunity
will, again for a short time only to celebrate the launch of
Developing Psychic Powers, also receive three further mystery
gifts, not mentioned on the web page, worth an additional $111.

So in summary, here is what you can receive for a short time only
to celebrate the launch of Developing Psychic Powers:

Psychic Power Secrets
Clairvoyance Power Secrets
Telekinesis Power Secrets

Plus:

Psychomancy Power Secrets
Mental Power Secrets

Plus:

Three additional valuable mystery gifts.

Plus: a $30 discount from the ongoing price.

A total value of $326 for a short time only.

I will not take anymore space today in this newsletter telling you
about Developing Psychic Powers, but I am delighted to have finally
reached the point, after much work, I can tell you about it.

You can obtain your free copy of The Psychic Report and read the
full details of the Developing Psychic Powers course at:

http://www.developingpsychicpowers.com

By subscribing to the Developing Psychic Powers newsletter not only
will you receive The Psychic Report, you will also each day receive
a detailed description of the course, and also receive, from time
to time, a completely separate Psychic Powers Newsletter.

Until next week when we will return to discuss other important
matters.

In Peace, Light and Truth,

Adrian.

Hello Jonathan,

Quote from: Jonathan on August 15, 2006, 18:59:19

When I said the Pulse was started as an investment I did not intend to imply anything negative by it.  I simply mean you provide a useful service to the community and get paid for it. 

Get paid for it; are you serious? By who? I have never been paid a penny for it, and never wish to be paid for it. I do know that it has cost me a great deal of money, which I gladly contribute for the greater good. I don't know where you get your ideas from, but they are seriously misguided :-)

Anyway; I don't think this topic serves any further useful purpose; it isn't exactly very substantive to productive discussion.

Best regards,

Adrian.

Hello Jonathan,

I have no intention of getting into personalities here because it is not appropriate to do so.

However we can look at the facts. Robert made comparitively few posts, most of which were at the beginning when it was a novelty to him; he implied as much himself. I received countless messages from people complaining that they were posting messages for Robert, as well as sending him emails which were never answered. I would never treat people that way.

He was most certainly not the "main attraction", because most members do not even know who he is, much less joined because of him. The rate of new members joining now is much higher than when Robert was associated with the forums; again a statistical fact.

We agreed that Robert could make use of the main pages of the site to host his own material, which he did for some time and sold alot of books, seminars etc. from. The fact still remains that I always exclusively owned, managed and financed the Astral Pulse then, just as I do to this day.

I would also point out that it was Robert's actions and decision to setup a new site and move his material there; not mine.

There is alot more I can say to disprove your assertions, but as I said, it is history. Due to my own efforts and those of the moderators the Astral Pulse is what it is today, which speaks for itself, and will continue in the future as the leading resource of its type.

I certainly take exception to the fact the Astral Pulse was started as an investment. It was founded for exactly the same reason it exists now; a place where a wide range of metaphysical, esoteric and Spiritual matters can be safely discussed by like-minded people; i.e. it serves a valuable purpose. I have personally put, and continue to put countless thousands of hours into the site, and have dealt with many negative situations over the years, not to mention the time and costs of all the server migrations and ongoing hosting.

However, as I said, Robert is history, and this topic is about Fraternitas Hermetica, so please let us keep it on topic.

Best regards,

Adrian.

Hello Guided Force,

It is better not to concern yourself with labels; just be who you are and providing you keep an open Mind and ask for answers they will become apparent to you at the appropriate time.

One of the most concerning aspects of this is that when people believe themselves to be "special" in some way, they lose freewill as they then focus on living up to what they believe they are, and consequently go nowhere or very often backwards or worse.

I would say that regardless of these rainbow/indigo/crystal labels, there are many people incarnating in this last few decades, particularly since around 1987 who are definitely here for a purpose due to the stage Earth and its life are at this time.

Best regards,

Adrian.

Hello everyone,

I really must add my comments here.

First of all; my eldest son, now 15, I have three sons, has all of the characteristics attributed to a so called "Indigo child" and then some.

I can therefore understand how any parent would like to believe their child is some sort of next generation "super-human".

However; I will not accept anything unless I can totally satisfy myself based on alot of research. I have researched the "indigo child" phenomena, and at this stage I believe it is just that; a phenomena.

That being the case it seems harmless enough on the face of it, but what really concerns me is that it is now assuming religious, or worse cult like proportions. There is a very serious side to this. If parents start telling their children; especially 95% of all 10 year olds, that they are special, have lots more strands of DNA, are chosen ones etc., etc., then it will very severely compromise their lives; the very reason they are here. They will use "being special" as an excuse for being unruly as well as other anti-social or undesirable behavior. Not only that it will deprive them of freewill because they will believe they do not have to learn from this Earth experience.

Next; this "indigo child" phenomena has "new age" stamped all over it. In addition, channeled must be regarded with a great deal of suspicion. The vast majority of channeled entities are lower Astral entities purporting to be enlightened beings with important messages; which of course they are not. They generally know alot less than we know on Earth.

Spiritually it makes no sense. We are all here to evolve by experience, so what would be the point in placing a bunch, that it to say most if not all of children who are not supposed to be even human in origin here now?

I know and are tracking in great depth the 2012, ascension, pole-shift etc, scenarios, and something is happening in a very powerful way, but it will still happen regardless of these kids and will not help those who are here; there is probably not enough time left even.

Finally, from a rational perspective; if all 10 years and under kids displayed the characteristics attributed to "indigo children", then all schools and kindergartens would be in a state of anarchy, which wouldn't matter anyway because the kids already know everything.

A look at the schools today in my area, on news reports on the Internet etc., leads me to believe that the kids of today are no different to how they were 10 years ago; just normal kids with a very wide range of personalities and abilities.

I would never say never because I have seen and experienced far too many things that most people would think is "far out", but we do need to keep this latest new age trend firmly in perspective and arrive at conclusions based on the evidence; not from channeled beings.

The proof of the theory is simply. Get some strands of hair from some of these kids, do a DNA test, and see how many strands of DNA they have. In addition, if there are millions of "indigo" kids in the world today with 7 strands of DNA, a little thing like that would have been discovered by now.

Does anyone actually have any evidence that 95% of 10 year olds and 80% of 15 to 20 year olds or whatever show these attributes?

And please let us not overlook the "rainbow" and "crystal" children  :-)

Best regards,

Adrian.

Hello everyone,

Separately to the main issue I would like to comment on this quote by heynonymous:

Quote from: heynonymous on July 07, 2006, 15:49:05
My friends, the higher aspects of spiritual work is something that should only be ventured into, AFTER you have already found balance in your character and daily living on the physical plane for an EXTENDED period of time. If you are still struggling with school, phone bills or other financial problems, unjust work bosses, personal relationships, health problems, family problems and if your house is literally dirty... then find peace and balance in those areas FIRST, don't go trying to join up some spiritual school, because starting where you are today is the highest priority spiritual work you can possibly be doing, even if it doesn't look like spiritual work. Taking the advise of a person who is not a real teacher (even though he appears to be one at first), will only further screw up your life and waste away your precious time.

Lastly, I also just want to say, even if you do one day come across somebody who can prove they have some kind of siddhi powers, remember that having powers doesn't mean a person is Enlightened or even close to it. Bardon's book clearly shows that with some serious effort, a dedicated person can acquire some incredible powers, but the highest and ONLY goal, is only attained after MANY MANY Steps, the first of which is a balanced character here on the physical plane, before any siddhis of any kind are acquired - Never forget that!

These are wise words indeed.

I have seen and receive messages from countless people who confuse "Magic" with Spiritual evolution.

Life itself is Magic. Everything we think, do or create with our thoughts is Magic.

Making a difference in the life of a fellow human being is Magic.

We are here, in the physical dimension of the Universe, which is a but a tiny fraction of the entire Universe, to commence our journey back to the Divine from whence we came. We are here to interact with the restrictions of material objects and most importantly with a wide range of human beings, for which, in His/Her infinite wisdom, has provided us with the gift of freewill. How we interact with this environment, the decisions we make and the lessons we learn will determine how much progress this individual incarnation will make, and how much is contributed to the overall evolution of our true self, our Higher-Self Who is the total of all individual incarnational facets.

We are are not here to engage is party games of the sort associated with the general perception of Magic as opposed to its true meaning, or of "Magick", which is a contrived word, witchraft, sorcery or anything else. Anyone with the right level of knowledge, concentration and focus can influence Energy to produce what might to some seem like miracles.

It is absolutely wrong to confuse the ability to manipulate Energy with Spiritual evolution which is a mistake many people, particularly many of the more egotistical esoteric orders make. For example; there are many powerful black magicians in existence today who have considerable control over Energy which they use for what is known as "evil" which in fact in turn is still a polarity. This does not make these people "Spiritually advanced", because it is not the power that matters, it is how it is applied for individual evolution and service to fellow human beings of which we are all equal aspects.

True Magic is about the perfection of self, the refinement of our Spiritual bodies in order to progress through the infinite levels of Energy and vibration until we finally arrive back to our Divine Creator from whence we came. This is the meaning of life.

Where understanding and applying Universal Laws does matter is when these abilities are applied for ongoing evolution and the greater good. Understanding the so called "Law of Attraction" is important; i.e. the understanding of how to bring our genuine needs into our lives with something is crude as "money". How to use Universal Laws for healing, how to transmute negative, recessive traits into positive, progressive traits. And very importantly how to transcend the ego; a fundamental objective, and one which was mentioned by heynonymous in the context of the founder of Fraternitas Hermetica. This is why so many esoteric orders fail; they are ruled by delusion, by the ego only being concerned about "rank" and "degree", and about "magical ability" which in fact is usually little more than sorcery at best.

These are all reasons I wrote my 640 page book Our Ultimate Reality which I was inspired to write to clarify these important issues and provide a proper sense of direction.

My friends time may well be short. The great Planetary Spirit known as "Earth" is on Its own path of evolution, and is in the process of graduating from the current density. We do not know how long this process will take, only that it is happening. Extinctions of life on Earth are occurring at 1000 times the historical averages; a greater rate than at any time during the last 65 million years, since the great dinosaur extinction. The Schumann Resonance, a measure of the harmonic of Earth which historically has been 7.83 Hz has risen to 12Hz, and cannot go higher than 13Hz. The polar caps are melting from below; a fact not mentioned by scientists; it is nothing to do with global warming, and I could give you a thousand other facts and figures.

The fact is; every moment on Earth is precious; do not waste it on "powers" that are of no tangible value. Every minute of every day should be spent living life to the full; on the perfection of self and of service to others.

I truly hope you will keep these things in Mind.

Kind regards,

Adrian.

Hello everyone,

What an interesting discussion!

First of all I would like to thank heynonymous very much for his very well informed, fair and balanced post.

I will say no more than that except to say that Romero stated himself that he created Fraternitas Hermetica at the request of and/or the guidance of inner Masters. I have not been able to confirm that, or indeed whether he was ever in contact with such Masters. That does not mean he was or was not; I just have no evidence one way or the other.

I do however respect the sincere efforts of anyone to establish a power for the greater good; providing it stays remains that way and has direction and management. Again; a general observation.

Regarding the Astral Pulse; I have said this before and I will say it again; the Astral Pulse was never, at any time owned by Robert Bruce.

Around February 2002 I registered the domain name and then created the site which I have managed ever since. I have spent a considerable amount of my own money and thousands of hours of my own time; which I do not have alot of spare, to keep the Astral Pulse forums operational against often considerable resistance. I have moved the forums across 5 different servers and 3 different forums software platforms which; believe me, is not easy with a forum of this size. I continue to put considerable time into the forums both managing the technology and also answering the numerous emails and private messages I receive, as well as liaising with the excellent moderators of the forum.  Robert never contributed anything, but did very well out of the site in sales of books, seminars etc.; which I supported at the time. Later Robert formed his Astral Dynamics site, without my knowing, and attempted to gain control of Astral Pulse at the same time but of course failed to do so.

Today everything is harmonious as it should be with myself continuing to operate Astral Pulse and Robert continuing, presumably, to manage Astral Dynamics.

I hope that clarifies a few things.

Kind regards,

Adrian.

Hello,

This offer has been around for a long time. Either Randi has no intention of giving the money away and accepting such things, we are all delusional and such things can't be proven or are not real, or no legit people have approached Randi.

Randi has absolutely no intention of paying that money. Plenty of people have provided adequate proof, but he always raises the bar to just above where the line of proof is.

At the final analysis no psychic, metaphysical or paranormal phenomena is of the physical world, and cannot therefore be proven by the physical means demanded by Randi.

My friend Victor Zammit has for the last 8 years offered $1M to anyone who can disprove the existence of the afterlife; and no one, including Randi, has been able to claim that either for the same reasons.

Hello Catmeow,

The default them should not actually have been available; it was an oversight on my part. Because it is not intended to be used it was not fully configured. Everyone is using the "official" theme now  :-)

Hello everyone,

Keep in mind that fuel is not the onlt commodity produced from oil.

Oil is the basis for almost everything; synthetic materials such as plastics, medicines, chemicals etc..

Also electricity is often produced from diesel oil driven turbines.

If that graph is correct; and I personally believe it is quite possible, the cost of living will increase dramatically as will inflation and therefore interest rates, and therefore loans and mortgages etc..

This however is only one element of what is happening right now; but an observable one nevertheless.

Best regards,

Adrian.
