Magazine Overview

Title: Revelations of Awareness
Issue: 82-2
Date: June 17, 1981
Publisher: Cosmic Awareness Communications
Cover Headline: Sensitivity & Understanding to Each Other's Needs

This issue of Revelations of Awareness, a New-Age Cosmic Newsletter, explores themes of interpersonal relationships, spiritual responsibility, and the escalating threat of nuclear war.

Sensitivity & Understanding to Each Other's Needs

The central theme of this issue, as indicated by Cosmic Awareness, is the importance of sensitivity and understanding in relationships. It posits that as entities become more receptive to each other's needs, they may feel a responsibility to fulfill them. However, Cosmic Awareness clarifies that this is not an obligation but a choice. Entities are encouraged to distinguish between desires and needs, and to assist others in fulfilling their needs only if they choose to do so. The text emphasizes that a truly loving relationship is measured by the entity's willingness to satisfy the other, rather than being satisfied oneself.

Making a Business Out of a Relationship

Cosmic Awareness critiques the transactional approach to relationships, where giving is done with the expectation of receiving. This is likened to making a business of a relationship, where affection and recognition are bartered. It warns against entities who sacrifice themselves by giving all to a relationship without return, likening it to 'casting pearls before swine,' where one entity may become a 'bottomless pit' that drains the other's life force and energies. The message is that true giving should lead to constructive development and upliftment in the other, not sustain dependency or detriment.

Lopsided Relationships and Defense Mechanisms

The newsletter discusses various forms of lopsided relationships, including those where one entity is submissive and the other dominant, leading to karmic imbalances. It also touches upon how individuals may transfer childhood relationship dynamics and defense mechanisms onto their current relationships, often projecting past frustrations onto mates or associates. Communication and self-discernment are highlighted as crucial for understanding these patterns and fostering better relationships.

God's Will vs. Personal Will

A significant portion of the issue is dedicated to exploring the concept of 'God's Will,' particularly in response to the phrase 'Thy Will be done.' Cosmic Awareness explains that this attitude signifies a surrender to the Higher Spirit and Divine Forces, prioritizing them over personal desires. It suggests that this surrender allows for internal guidance and a more discerning approach to life. The text clarifies that following the Divine path does not necessarily mean abandoning worldly responsibilities, such as supporting family or engaging in society, but rather putting God first while fulfilling these obligations.

The Threat of Nuclear War and the Anti-Nuclear Movement

This issue addresses the growing concern over nuclear war, referencing a 'revolution in consciousness' in Europe due to anti-nuclear demonstrations. Cosmic Awareness indicates that the intense expressions of masses in Europe have had an effect on the planners and thinkers of both the United States and Russia, somewhat neutralizing the immediate threat. However, it warns that this threat can intensify again if entities become conditioned to accept unthinkable scenarios. The newsletter also touches upon the potential for other NATO countries to withdraw from alliances and discusses the perceived danger of nuclear war in the summer of '82, suggesting that actions by C.A.C. members and SPIRAL organizations should focus on communication and raising awareness.

The Declaration of Independence as a Forgery

In a separate segment, the issue raises a question about the authenticity of the Declaration of Independence, citing an opinion from a document examiner who believes it to be a forgery based on stylistic analysis of signatures and the grouping of names.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around the nature of true relationships, the importance of personal responsibility within a spiritual context, and the collective consciousness's response to global threats like nuclear war. The editorial stance, as conveyed through Cosmic Awareness, encourages self-awareness, conscious choice, and a balanced approach to spirituality that integrates, rather than abandons, worldly responsibilities. It emphasizes discernment and the power of collective communication in addressing societal and global issues.

Content Summary

This issue of "REVELATIONS OF AWARENESS" delves into several distinct topics, offering insights from "Cosmic Awareness" (C.A.C.).

Historical Speculation on the Declaration of Independence

The issue begins with a query regarding Freedman's speculation that Continental Congress members feared sedition and had their signatures forged by Benjamin Franklin, who was the only genuine signer. Cosmic Awareness responds, indicating that it appears there was a general consensus among entities for a way out, and that it does not appear only Franklin signed. It suggests several entities were associated and contributing, and some signers signed each other's names rather than their own. This is deemed relatively insignificant historically, though of potential significance for historical purposes.

The Meditation of Love

Presented as an "Opening Message, CAC General Reading" from April 21, 1978, this section outlines a meditation practice. It guides the reader to visualize themselves as a shining star, drawing universal energies of love, light, and vitality. The meditation is suggested for approximately 10 minutes, focusing on filling the body with these energies. Once overflowing, the reader is encouraged to radiate the excess energy outward to loved ones and those in need of healing or assistance. This practice is presented as a lifestyle that can be continued indefinitely.

Look-A-Like Drugs and FDA Regulation

A significant portion of the issue is dedicated to a question posed by "A.P." concerning "look-a-like" stimulant drugs being sold through mail and over the counter. A.P. questions why the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), known for its regulatory nature, permits the sale of these drugs, which are perceived as potentially luring new users into the drug market and contributing to societal chaos and violence. A.P. speculates that the Tavistock Institute might be covertly promoting these drugs to increase chaos.

Cosmic Awareness confirms A.P.'s analysis as clear, stating that the FDA "actually works for the pharmaceutical companies" and that FDA members often hold stock in these companies. It further links the origins of pharmaceutical companies to the "Rockefeller powers." The awareness indicates that these "look-a-like" drugs are designed to create confusion, with profits going to manufacturers. It also suggests a potential secondary motive of creating an atmosphere for more stringent controls on all pharmaceuticals in the future.

Dangers and Deception of Look-A-Like Drugs

Another question addresses the heavy caffeine content and other drugs in look-a-likes, and whether scare stories about youngsters being damaged are true or planted. Cosmic Awareness explains that the danger lies in confusion: an entity accustomed to a particular drug might take multiple look-a-like pills (containing caffeine) to achieve a desired state, then mistakenly take actual drugs, leading to overdose and grave consequences. This is likened to placing pure sugar cubes alongside sugar cubes laced with LSD.

The motive for creating these facsimiles is not seen as concern for drug users, but rather a way for new entities to appear involved in drug use or to use these tablets to confuse police during arrests, presenting them as legal pharmaceutical drugs. This makes it harder to locate real narcotics. Cosmic Awareness concludes that the entire action has no redeeming qualities, creates confusion, and can lead innocent persons into heavier drug use and damaging situations.

A follow-up question references a "60 Minutes" report, suggesting that look-a-like drugs might be more damaging than the illegal originals. Cosmic Awareness states this depends on the types of narcotics and their strength and doses.

Publication Information

The issue includes an "ED's Note" recommending the "SPIRAL" publication and providing subscription details for "SPIRAL Enterprises." It also identifies "REVELATIONS OF AWARENESS" as a bi-weekly cosmic newsletter published by Cosmic Awareness Communications, P.O. Box 115, Olympia, Washington 98507.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are spiritual practices (meditation), historical interpretation, and critical analysis of governmental regulation and societal issues, particularly concerning drug policy. The editorial stance, as conveyed through Cosmic Awareness, is one of skepticism towards governmental and corporate motives, particularly in the pharmaceutical industry, and an emphasis on spiritual awareness and self-guidance. There is a consistent theme of hidden agendas and the manipulation of public perception for profit or control.
