This issue of Revelations of Awareness, a New-Age Cosmic Newsletter, addresses a range of spiritual, personal, and existential topics, guided by 'Cosmic Awareness' channeled through interpreters. The cover features portraits of an older couple with the headline "What to do with Mom and Dad?", setting a tone for discussions on family dynamics and aging.

Caring for the Elderly and Family Dynamics

The newsletter features a Q&A with 'Cosmic Awareness' responding to a reader's concern about caring for elderly parents without sacrificing their own lives and dealing with feelings of being trapped and resentful. Cosmic Awareness emphasizes that just as parents devoted years of care to their children, it is not inappropriate for children to return some of that care. However, it acknowledges that immediate personal attention may be impractical, suggesting alternatives like pleasant care facilities. The text also touches upon the concept of 'martyrdom' in this context and the unique karmic ties that influence these relationships.

A follow-up question explores the idea of children who were treated coldly by parents in youth being sought out for help in later life. Cosmic Awareness indicates this can occur but is not necessarily a pattern.

Breaking Psychic Controls of Parents

Another section addresses adult children struggling with difficult parent-child relationships, characterized by control, lack of appreciation, and power games. The advice is to break free from the need for parental approval, recognizing that pouring energy into such relationships may be futile if the parents are unwilling to change. It suggests focusing energy on one's own life, building meaningful relationships, and not expecting monetary reward or inheritance. Maintaining communication without seeking approval is advised, focusing on sharing positive life events.

The concept of 'psychic control' is discussed, suggesting that breaking free from parental expectations can lead to greater independence, self-wholesomeness, and more beneficial relationships. The idea is to reject expectations of favors and focus on personal growth, which can transform resentment into initiative and ambition.

The Personal and Extended Family

Cosmic Awareness clarifies that there is no Divine Law mandating specific family relationships. It suggests that entities may find greater fulfillment and support in an 'extended family' – chosen friends and associates with whom they share more in common – than in their biological family, especially if the latter is characterized by conflict or lack of understanding.

Karma and Personal Sacrifice

Putting the Old Folks into a "Home": Does This Create Bad Karma?

This section addresses whether placing an elderly parent in a care facility creates negative karma. Cosmic Awareness states that if the action benefits both parties, it is unlikely to create karmic problems. However, if done to avoid dealing with the parent, it may lead to guilt. It emphasizes that almost all relationships and interactions create some form of karma, and the goal should be to act in a way that benefits all parties involved, rather than acting out of duty to avoid karma, which is seen as a selfish motive.

UFOs and Alternative Organizations

What is Behind the "Armageddon Time Ark Base Operation"?

A reader inquires about an organization called the 'Armageddon Time Ark Base Operation' which claims to be a positive force offering an evacuation plan. Cosmic Awareness identifies this as likely a scam, noting that it requires significant monetary payments and uses information about future events to appear valid, preying on people's beliefs and vulnerabilities.

The Manassa Complex

In relation to the 'Armageddon Time Ark Base Operation,' the term 'Manassa Complex' is mentioned as a code name possibly connected to an operation known as 'Alternative Three,' which involves the secret building of cities and refuges, potentially using slave labor. This program is described as having been initiated by major nations and concerns, not by Divine Forces.

Should the Navy Sink Old Nuclear Subs in the Ocean?

Environmentalists are concerned about the Navy scuttling decommissioned Polaris submarines due to potential radioactivity leakage. Cosmic Awareness indicates that within 30-40 years, the radioactivity could leak, affecting sea life. It also foresees a massive cleanup operation by the year 2020 to address pollution and radioactivity, criticizing the current generation's short-sightedness and indifference to future generations.

Dinosaur Extinction Theories

Did Comets Kill the Dinosaurs?

This section discusses the theory that an asteroid impact 65 million years ago created a massive dust cloud, blocking sunlight for an extended period, leading to the extinction of dinosaurs due to cold and lack of visibility. Cosmic Awareness confirms this as a major crisis and turning point in Earth's evolution, though notes that some creatures survived and repopulated.

What About Those Dinosaurs Found Frozen in the Ice?

Cosmic Awareness links the discovery of frozen creatures to a larger cataclysm, possibly associated with a celestial body that altered Earth's orbit, caused pole shifts, and led to significant destruction. It mentions similar events around 75,000 B.C., 10,000 B.C., and 600 B.C., suggesting these are the basis for historical and biblical accounts.

The ED's Note mentions a discovery of petrified dinosaur-like rocks on an island in the St. Lawrence River, Canada, and the owner's paranoia about scientists verifying the find.

Multidimensional Civilizations and Dreams

Do We Experience Other Civilizations?

Cosmic Awareness explains that entities experience various civilizations in different vibratory rates, often moving to those that align with their own inclination or pre-arranged plans. Most entities experience about 20 civilizations. Earth is described as a 'melting pot' for various beings and ideas from different civilizations.

Dreams are presented as a means of entering other vibratory rates and experiencing different civilizations. If these dreams were consistent, they could feel like parallel realities. The concept of 'mass imagination' is introduced as the force that maintains the stability of these civilizations.

What Life is Like on Some of These Other Civilizations?

Each civilization tends to have a distinct personality or profile, emphasizing certain concepts. While Earth thrives on conflict and sexual energies, other planes may focus on mathematics, movement, communication, or blending with nature. Some civilizations are involved in creation and trade, with Earth serving as a catch-all for many beings, including elves, gnomes, and angels.

The Nature of Cosmic Awareness

This section describes Cosmic Awareness as a non-physical entity that perceives, senses, and knows without physical attributes like eyes, hands, or a mouth. It does not use a physical mind or emotion. It is indicated that this Awareness is beginning to teach those who are ministers of it.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around personal spiritual growth, understanding karmic responsibilities, and navigating complex relationships, particularly within families. There is a strong emphasis on self-reliance, breaking free from external dependencies and controls, and seeking truth through personal inquiry rather than blind belief. The newsletter also engages with contemporary concerns such as potential global threats (nuclear war, environmental issues) and questions the authenticity of organizations claiming spiritual authority or offering salvation. The editorial stance appears to be one of encouraging critical thinking, self-awareness, and a focus on spiritual evolution over material gain or external validation, while also acknowledging the complexities of human relationships and societal issues.

This issue of Astrology & Psychic News, dated May 1985, is Volume LXVI, Number 6. The cover headline focuses on NASA's secret space shuttle mission to make contact with UFOs, with a secondary article discussing the potential Arab origins of Jesus Christ and the Roman Catholic Church's alleged suppression of this information. The magazine also features a book advertisement for 'The Israeli Secret Service' by Richard Deacon.

Jesus Revealed as an Arab

The issue addresses a question about a booklet titled 'Beyond the Gemstone File' by Peter Rensel, which claims Jesus Christ was an Arab, born on April 16, 6 BC, during a specific astrological conjunction. The booklet also asserts that the Magi were Arab and Persian astronomers who found the baby Jesus in a stable because Jews denied Mary and Joseph entry. Furthermore, it alleges that the Roman Catholic Church has suppressed historical records, including accounts from Tacitus, describing Jesus' crucifixion and the eating of his liver.

Cosmic Awareness confirms that the entity identified as Jesus appears to be Armenian and that the information about his Arab nature is accurate. It also indicates that the Roman Catholic Church is aware of this information and has historical records regarding it, suggesting that the church, originating from the Roman Empire, synthesized various religious groups into one religion.

The Great Invocation

Another question concerns 'The Great Invocation,' a prayer advertised by the Lucius Trust, which is described as belonging to all humanity and used to invoke peace. Cosmic Awareness explains that the Lucius Trust is associated with the spiritual hierarchy described by Alice Bailey and Annie Besant. The 'Great Invocation' is characterized as a universal prayer, not tied to any specific religious preference, and is accepted by many spiritual organizations. The ED's Note reveals that CAC declined to play a video of the invocation on local TV stations because a picture of the Kremlin was projected during the phrase 'may it seal the door where evil dwells,' which they found inappropriate given changes in Russia. The Lucius Trust is also noted as promoting Lord Maitreya as the returned Christ.

The Law of New Being

This section explains the 'Law of New Being' as a principle that lessens polarities and reconciles oppositions, integrating concepts of good and evil, God and Satan, under the Law of One. It suggests that there is no longer a force of evil in the world, only echoes and fears from consciousness. Following this law allows beings to transcend matter and move into new states of being, creating a 'New World of the New Being: The Unified States of Awareness.'

The magazine consistently explores themes of conspiracy, suppressed knowledge, and alternative interpretations of historical and religious events. There is a strong focus on UFOs, extraterrestrial contact, and hidden truths about religious figures and institutions. The editorial stance appears to favor questioning established narratives and exploring esoteric or unconventional viewpoints, as evidenced by the inclusion of 'Cosmic Awareness' responses and articles critical of mainstream institutions like the Catholic Church and government policies. The magazine also highlights instances of alleged fraud and abuse by powerful organizations and individuals.
