This issue of Revelations of Awareness, subtitled 'The New Age Cosmic Newsletter', focuses heavily on the concept of Satanism and its relationship with Christianity, exploring themes of subliminal messaging, dualistic versus holistic thinking, and the promotion of symbols associated with negative forces.
The Philosophy of Satanism and its Relation to Christianity
The newsletter begins by introducing Cosmic Awareness as a force that has expressed itself through various spiritual figures and now communicates through trained channels to help usher in a New Age. It addresses a reader's question about whether Satanic messages are embedded in rock and roll music, particularly when played backward. The publication confirms that some groups do incorporate such messages, citing examples from Led Zeppelin, Electric Light Orchestra, and Black Oak Arkansas. It explains this as a form of subliminal programming intended to influence listeners.
Cosmic Awareness indicates that certain groups are involved in Satanism, influenced by forces within the entertainment industry. It explains that understanding this requires understanding the philosophy behind it. The newsletter posits that Satanism views the Judeo-Christian God (Jehovah) as a false god and Christ as misled. In this philosophy, Satan (or Natas) is considered the true creator, slandered and blamed for the world's ills. Satanists believe that by aligning with Satan, they gain power to redeem the forces of Satan. The concept of Pan from Greek mythology, a half-man, half-goat figure associated with harmony, is also discussed as being co-opted by modern Satanism, though the newsletter notes this is an unfair association.
The origins of the modern personification of Satan are traced back to the Dark Ages and the Renaissance, with priests studying ancient manuscripts and using figures like Pan to symbolize Satan. The Egyptian gods Set (Saturn) and Horus (Mercury) are also mentioned in relation to planetary influences and early mythologies.
Subliminal Messaging and the Mark of the Beast
The newsletter discusses how subliminal messages are not limited to music but are also present in movies, television shows, and advertisements. It notes that while these messages are not as potent as some fear, they can affect susceptible individuals, particularly those seeking rebellion. The concept of the 'Mark of the Beast' (666) is highlighted as being promoted subtly through various means, including clothing labels in China, Hong Kong, and Israel, and even on license plates in Israel, Virginia, Maryland, and the District of Columbia. The Universal Product Code (UPC) is also examined, with the claim that its bar codes can visually represent the number 666.
Parenting, Psychology, and Spiritual Evolution
B.F. Skinner's experiment of raising his daughter in isolation is used as an example of how shielding children too much from outside influences can make them more susceptible to negative forces later in life. The newsletter emphasizes the importance of parents providing guidance and teaching social responsibility to help children develop discernment and immunity to subliminal suggestions.
It is suggested that entities can create energy fields that take on personalities, citing an experiment with Ouija boards where students mentally created a character that then communicated. The concept of 'Saint Twinkle' is presented as an example of how Cosmic Awareness has guided entities to energize fictional characters.
Holistic Thinking vs. Dualistic Thinking
A significant portion of the newsletter is dedicated to contrasting dualistic thinking with holistic thinking. Dualistic thinking, prevalent in many religions including Christianity, is characterized by a battle between good and evil, leading to judgment, condemnation, and conflict ('holy wars'). Holistic thinking, on the other hand, involves recognizing differences and oppositions without assigning them moral value, aiming for harmony and appropriateness. The newsletter argues that the Christian religion, by emphasizing the opposition between good and evil, has inadvertently strengthened the concept of evil.
Entities are encouraged to move beyond dualistic thinking towards a holistic viewpoint where actions are judged by whether they are appropriate and harmonious for all involved, rather than by rigid 'good' or 'evil' labels. The newsletter suggests that this shift is essential for spiritual evolution.
The Christian Church and Narrow-Mindedness
The question of how the Christian Church became narrow-minded is addressed. It is symbolized by the restrictive hoods worn by nuns, which blocked peripheral vision, representing an inward focus and an avoidance of anything outside the prescribed doctrine. This is linked to dualistic thinking, where entities are discouraged from exploring beyond a narrow set of beliefs.
Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance
The recurring themes in this issue revolve around the nature of good and evil, the influence of negative forces (Satanism, Dark Forces), the power of subliminal messaging, and the importance of spiritual evolution through conscious awareness. The editorial stance, as conveyed through 'Cosmic Awareness,' advocates for a shift from dualistic to holistic thinking, encouraging individuals to question, explore, and discover truth for themselves rather than blindly accepting doctrines. The newsletter positions itself as a source of information for those seeking to understand and navigate the spiritual landscape of the New Age.
Title: Revelations of Awareness
Issue: 82-14
Date: August 2, 1982
Publisher: Cosmic Awareness Communications
Country: USA
Language: English
This issue of Revelations of Awareness delves into spiritual and philosophical concepts, particularly focusing on the nature of 'awareness' and how individuals interact with various belief systems and worldly events. It presents a unique perspective on entities, consciousness, and the energies that influence human behavior and global affairs.
Understanding Different Philosophies and Entities
The publication distinguishes between various types of entities and their motivations. It describes "Satanists" as those seeking personal power and control, characterized by coldness and calculation. It also mentions "Luciferians" who are seen as entities that siphon energy from others. The "truly aware" entity is presented as someone who can understand and interact with these forces without being negatively influenced. This awareness allows them to see the underlying struggles and potential for change in others, even those with opposing philosophies.
The text contrasts these with "half asleep" entities who are victimized by opposing forces. It also describes a specific interpretation of "True" Christians as being limited in their perception, locked into a narrow viewpoint with their "inner light" shining outward but not allowing them to see others deeply.
The Truly Aware Entity's Approach
Truly aware individuals are depicted as capable of embracing the best of various philosophies, such as Christianity and Buddhism, without feeling threatened or needing to convert others. They can communicate with empathy, recognizing the "agony" and "separateness" of entities like Satanists, and potentially assist them in seeing themselves more clearly and changing their path. This approach is not about labeling oneself but about being capable of communicating without fear to any entity open to it, while also knowing when to refrain from communication to avoid triggering negative reactions.
The issue emphasizes that true awareness is about understanding the whole of consciousness, not just a small portion. It suggests that entities should remain students of life, expanding their awareness to encompass many different concepts and ideas to better understand the world.
Geopolitical Concerns: Israel, Lebanon, and US Involvement
A significant portion of the magazine addresses the geopolitical situation in the Middle East, specifically Israel's actions in Lebanon. The publication notes the international outrage and the United States' consideration of sending marines. It questions whether this is purely a humanitarian effort or if there are other underlying reasons. The "Cosmic Awareness" suggests that while it may appear as a humanitarian service, there's a desire for a military presence possibly to exert influence and demonstrate US strength and determination in the region, viewing it as part of a larger plan.
The Bechtel Corporation and the MX Missile Project
The issue also investigates the Bechtel Corporation, highlighting its connections to economic ties and political actions, particularly concerning the Middle East. It notes that key government figures, including the new Secretary of State George Shultz and Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger, have past affiliations with Bechtel. The magazine reports on Bechtel units receiving substantial Pentagon contracts for the MX missile project, including one for $19.3 million for developing a demonstration model of a deep-basing system for the missiles. Another company, R.A. Hanson Co., also received a contract for a similar MX missile system.
Turbulent Times and Greater Responsibility
An excerpt from a "C.A.C. General Reading" dated July 9, 1982, warns of turbulent energies in the coming months, which may cause confusion and uncertainty. However, it suggests a general trend toward greater alignment and harmony. During these unsettled times, individuals are urged to remain aware, alert, flexible, and caring for one another. The reading stresses the need for entities to express greater responsibility for their behavior and activities, especially during difficult periods.
Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance
The recurring themes in this issue revolve around the nature of consciousness and awareness, the interaction between different spiritual and philosophical belief systems, and the influence of unseen energies on both individual lives and global events. The editorial stance appears to be one of promoting a higher level of awareness, encouraging empathy and understanding across diverse viewpoints, and critically examining geopolitical and corporate actions. The publication uses "This Awareness" and "Cosmic Awareness" as sources, suggesting a channeled or intuitive perspective on the topics discussed. The overall tone is informative and analytical, aiming to provide readers with a broader understanding of the forces at play in the world.
