“For whom should I vote? | Mitchell”

 

 

 

 

 

Reno Consociate David Mitchell wrote an opinion piece for the local Reno newspaper, the Reno Gazette Journal, published February 18, 2020. Here is how it opens:

 

Through personal revelation or otherwise, many people have had some sort of personal experience with a spiritual “higher power.” In many instances, this Divine relationship has played the most powerful role in shaping their lives. If you feel this is the most important dimension of your life, then perhaps you should consider using this part of yourself when it comes time to vote.

This means more than asking which candidate supports your religious beliefs; this means asking what feelings each candidate promotes within you, and whether those feelings support or diminish your spiritual convictions. For example, consider all the candidates running for a particular office, and then ask yourself which candidate you would prefer to invite to dinner for an evening of shared wisdom and perspectives. The answer might surprise you; it did when I tried this.

“Ignorance is the Root of Evil”

 

 

” As long as they are hidden, most things in the world are upright and live. If they are revealed they die, as is clear by the example of the visible person: as long as the intestines are hidden, a person is alive. When the intestines are exposed and come out, the person will die. So also with a tree. While its root is hidden, it sprouts and grows. If its root is exposed, the tree dries up.

“So it is with every birth that is in the world, not only with the revealed but also the hidden. As long as the root of wickedness is hidden, it is powerful. But when it is recognized, it is dissolved. When it is revealed, it perishes. That is why the word says, “Even now the ax lies set against the root of the trees.”It will not merely cut—what is cut sprouts again— but the ax penetrates deeply until it brings up the root.

“Jesus pulled out the root of the whole place while others did it only partially. As for us, let each one dig down after the root of evil that is within us and pluck it out of our heart from the root. It will be uprooted if we recognize it. But if we are ignorant of it, it takes root in us and produces fruit in our hearts. It masters us. We are its slaves. It takes us captive to make us do what we do not want; and what we do want we do not do. It is powerful because we have not recognized it. While it exists it is active. Ignorance is the mother of all evil. Ignorance will eventuate in death because those who come from ignorance neither were nor are nor will be. But those who are in the truth will be perfect when all the truth is revealed.” ~Gospel of Philip

Hidden are Upright in Ignorance

I believe what Philip is saying is that those who are ignorant, but unaware of it, can remain upright and alive in a world where ignorance is the norm. However, when they become aware of their ignorance, and the ignorance of others, they must change that status. They will no longer seem alive and intelligent to themselves once the ignorance and illusion of the world they live in is revealed. They do not truly die if they awaken to their ignorance and seek to change. It is those who cling to the ignorance and comforting illusions who are truly the walking dead.

He is also saying that people who are in truth not powerful can appear powerful in a land of ignorance and illusion if they are good at negotiating and manipulating the illusion. There are even people who believe that by manipulating the illusion through a process called “manifesting” that they are being spiritual, but manifesting is spiritual only when it is used for spiritual purposes, not material gain.

HEAD OVERSEER’S WEEKLY MESSAGE

 

 

 

 

February 26, 2020
Commemoration of Other Appearances (1988)

The Eleventh Saying (Part 4 of 4)

And we now conclude the Eleventh Saying of The Secret Sayings of Jamil with the fourth and final portion of the commentary.

“After these words the Second Mariner asked: ‘Are there any conditions as far as the development of The Community that need to be fulfilled before we are capable of handling this task?’

“And The Man answered him saying: ‘In the Eleventh Saying we are told, “The agents of the Father shall be a blessed body of noble and enlightened minds calling upon the power of the Sun to burn away the injustices of the world.” Therefore, within The Community, there will be an order of enlightened minds who will accomplish this judgement. I would imagine that the men and women of that body must be as wise as spiritual judges. The individuals of this body are, first of all, priests of God dedicated to His statutes and judgements in the last and final days of the Earth. The prophet Isaiah talked about the eternal blessing of God, of the new Earth, and he stated, in quoting the Lord: “For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.” So there will be a new Earth, and the inhabitants will be a new race of Godly men and women.

“‘Isaiah also says, in quoting the Lord: “For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the Lord, so shall your seed and your name remain. And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord. And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.”

“‘Now, these words are from ancient prophets of the Hebrew people and they are harsh; but if we are to believe the words of the prophets, if we are to believe the words of Jamil, that we are in the last and final days of the Earth, then these things shall come to pass. For if people who have transgressed against law not be brought to justice and tried, then the world will never change. Who can better judge man than God?’

After saying this The Man prepared to read the Twelfth Saying.”

And we will begin the Twelfth Saying next week.

Again, if I may be of any personal service to you, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Very truly yours in Light+,

“Wellness with Light, Color, Sound & Frequencies”: Karen Elkins Interviews Gary Buchanan

 

 

 

Karen Elkins interviewed Rev. Dr. Gary Buchanan mid-February 2020 for her program Science to Sage, where she explores the convergence of science and spirituality at sciencetosage.com, under the title “Wellness with Light, Color, Sound & Frequencies.”

In this video Gary shares information on his educational background, sound healing and music, and his decades-long research on the subjects of sound, light, and color and their relation to Cosolargy. He also discusses related new healing technologies and the importance of the teachings of Cosolargy to the survival of the human species.

Gary is the director of Wave Front BIOresonance® Research at Steamboat Healing Center in Reno, Nevada. As a practicing Sonatherapist, he regularly meets with clients from around the world offering “self-healing” via light, color, sound, water, and subtle energy therapeutics. Certified in Cymatic Therapy, he also works regularly with Yukinori Matsushita and Manners-certified Cymatic Therapeutic colleagues in Japan, among other nations.

Having followed the research and development of the late Sir Dr. Peter Guy Manners for over twenty years via their mutual colleague Yukinori Matsushita, in 2008 Dr. Buchanan met briefly with Dr. Manners at the latter’s home in Broadway, England. Following Manners’ review of Buchanan’s research, Buchanan was directly authorized and encouraged to carry on the vibrational healing technology the good doctor had been developing since the 1950s.

In August 2008 Dr. Buchanan published SONA: Healing with Wave Front BIOresonance™ — a landmark text on vibrational healing now distributed to physicians and vibrational healers around the globe. It is being utilized as an educational manual by professional clinicians in the U.S., Canada, Europe, the Middle East, India and parts of Asia, South America, South Africa, Australia, and Japan.

In December of 2011 Buchanan began his “Sonatherapy” channel on YouTube that in a little over three years has garnered well over 257,000 uploads of Cymatic videos featuring healing Wave Front BIOresonance™ Sonationswith 1,388 subscribers. These free, “self-healing” videos are viewed by, with ongoing emails received from, individuals in far-flung international locales, such as Pakistan, Africa, India, Russia, Indonesia, and elsewhere. Sonatherapy® is slowly being recognized as the healing technology of our time and of the future.

As a lifelong musician and educator, Buchanan is also Director of Music for Cosolargy® International; former Director of Admissions, the Jamilian University of the Ordained; former Editor, The Community Communiqué; Director of The Music Guild; Conductor of the Jamilian Hand Bell Choir; and, Co-chairman of the American Association of Concerned Clergymen, the Advocates for Religious Rights & Freedoms.

For decades Buchanan has served also as Vice President of the Andean Explorers Foundation & Ocean Sailing Club (AEF&OSC); Navigator for OSC; and has chaired the following committees: Cartography, Education, Epigraphy, Motion Picture & Video, and Musicology. (Former Website: www.aefosc.org.)

As an internationally recognized Composer & Conductor for almost five decades, Maestro Buchanan is Founding Conductor/Music Director of The Foundation Orchestra & Association based in Nevada and has been represented by that body, The Music Guild, and Cosolargy® International.

The Reverend Canon Dr. Buchanan lives at Steamboat Hot Springs, south of Reno, Nevada, with his wife Amanda at Steamboat Healing Center & Geothermal Spa, where he researches Wave Front BIOresonance™ — developing new understandings and applying groundbreaking vibrational approaches in healing.

February 22, 2020: Chapel Readings

 

 

Each week of the liturgical year, a reading from Second Advent Scripture is delivered as part of the Saturday Communion of Fellowship Service held in the Chapel of the Holy Child. This reading follows the Sacred Calendar of the Church; that is, Prophecies and Revelations that have been received by The Church on sacred dates are recalled in a liturgical context during the appropriate season each year. This reading is delivered just before the final blessings. Each service also includes a reading from the ancient scriptures, prayers, or wisdom sayings of various world religions past and present and is usually thematically related to the Second Advent Reading. This reading is delivered by the Reader right after the announcements that begin the service and is thus the first reading of the service. An audio recording of the reading from Second Advent Scripture delivered on the date above is provided here below together with a transcript of the first reading of the service that day.

SECOND ADVENT PROPHECY AND REVELATION

A Reading from Prophecy of the New Covenant, Chapter 91: “Testament of the New Covenant” (pp. 1002-10011).

 

ANCIENT SCRIPTURE AND WISDOM SAYINGS

A Reading from the Mundaka Upanishad of the Vedic Scriptures:

Bright but hidden, the Self dwells in the heart.
Everything that moves, breathes, opens, and closes
Lives in the Self. It is the source of love
And may be known through love but not through thought.
It is the goal of life. Attain this goal!

The shining Self dwells hidden in the heart.
Everything in the cosmos, great and small,
Lives in the Self. It is the source of life,
Truth beyond the transience of this world.
It is the goal of life. Attain this goal!

“Sojourner Soul and The Spiritual Quest”

 

 

“So long as the soul advances from strength to strength and from glory to glory, that is, so long as it advances from one degree of virtue to a greater degree and from one level of spiritual knowledge to a higher level, it remains a ‘sojourner,’ one who has no permanent home, as in the saying, ‘My soul has ling been a sojourner’. For great is the distance and many are the levels of knowledge through which the soul must pass before it reaches the place of the miraculous tabernacle, the house of God itself, with the voice of exultation and thanksgiving. …

“The place of the miraculous tabernacle is a dispassionate and untroubled state of virtue in which the Logos of God adorns the soul like a tabernacle with the varied beauties of the virtues. ‘The house of God’ is spiritual knowledge compounded of many different forms of contemplation when God dwells in a soul filling it from the bowl of wisdom. ‘Exultation’ is the soul’s leap of joy at the riches of the virtues. ‘Thanksgiving’ is gratitude for for the bountiful outpouring of wisdom.” ~The Philokalia

Sojourner Soul

Yes, it is good and proper for the soul and mind to travel from strength to strength, level to level. This has nothing to do with physical travel. We need not visit earthly locations said to be spiritual or holy. This is spiritual travel into higher dimensions of being.

We are all starting from different places and we all move at different speeds. The important thing, as the quote reminds us, it that we keep moving forward, learning more, and becoming more completely spiritual.

In the business world, they say that one year of experience repeated ten times is not the same as ten years of experience. What that means is that if you stopped learning after one year, you only really have one year of experience, no matter how long you have been on the job.

Sadly, there are many who complete what is essentially the spiritual equivalent of first grade, then stop learning. They believe that they have already learned everything there is to learn for complete spiritual development. Even sadder, there are spiritual writers and gurus, more interested in money than in truly helping students, who promote this idea because it is what the students want to hear. They get instant meals, instant clothes, so they want instant spiritual development. What they are really doing is anchoring themselves at the first or second road stop on a much longer journey. The one who succeeds is the constant sojourner.

“NASA’s Parker Solar Probe Sheds New Light on the Sun”

 

 

“The Sun has fascinated humanity for our entire existence,” said Nour E. Raouafi, project scientist for Parker Solar Probe at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory in Laurel, Maryland, which built and manages the mission for NASA. “We’ve learned a great deal about our star in the past several decades, but we really needed a mission like Parker Solar Probe to go into the Sun’s atmosphere. It’s only there that we can really learn the details of these complex solar processes. And what we’ve learned in just these three solar orbits alone has changed a lot of what we know about the Sun.”

 

In August 2018, NASA’s Parker Solar Probe launched to space, soon becoming the closest-ever spacecraft to the Sun. With cutting-edge scientific instruments to measure the environment around the spacecraft, Parker Solar Probe has completed three of 24 planned passes through never-before-explored parts of the Sun’s atmosphere, the corona. On Dec. 4, 2019, four new papers in the journal Nature describe what scientists have learned from this unprecedented exploration of our star — and what they look forward to learning next.

These findings reveal new information about the behavior of the material and particles that speed away from the Sun, bringing scientists closer to answering fundamental questions about the physics of our star. In the quest to protect astronauts and technology in space, the information Parker has uncovered about how the Sun constantly ejects material and energy will help scientists re-write the models we use to understand and predict the space weather around our planet and understand the process by which stars are created and evolve.
