Magazine Overview

Title: Revelations of Awareness
Issue: NO. 354
Date: September 27, 1989
Publisher: Cosmic Awareness Communications
Country: USA

This issue of Revelations of Awareness, subtitled 'The New Age Cosmic Newsletter,' delves into the profound shifts occurring as humanity approaches a new decade and a new millennium. The publication, from Cosmic Awareness Communications in Olympia, Washington, presents a channeled message from 'Cosmic Awareness' interpreted by Paul Shockley.

The Changing Face of Humanity: The Global Community is Coming

The core message from Cosmic Awareness, dated September 27, 1989, outlines a transition from polarized states to a more reconciled global consciousness. This shift is expected to diminish extreme 'Ahrimanic' qualities and foster reconciliation between cultures, individuals, races, and religions. The newsletter predicts an acceleration of political and ideological reconciliations, particularly among 'super powers,' leading to an alliance that will shape a global community. This community will be characterized by cooperation, free trade, and a more harmonious civilization, contrasting with 'undeveloped' nations that may remain in a state of competition and isolation. The text suggests a potential two-class system of civilizations: one globally oriented and cooperative, the other focused on individual, tribal, and national interests.

Religions to Become More Spiritual

The coming decade is seen as a period where humanity will place greater value on the spiritual side of existence, focusing on oneness, unity, and humanistic expressions. Fragmented religions are expected to merge based on similar underlying principles, leading to a reconciliation of differences. Material interests are predicted to temporarily supersede religious dogma, but this will eventually lead to a refocus on higher meanings of life and a resurgence of spiritual quests for universal truths.

The Effects of Our Depleting Ozone Layer

Environmental concerns are highlighted, with a focus on the depleting ozone layer. The newsletter notes that a significant portion of the ozone layer in the Antarctic region has disappeared, causing alarm among scientists. This depletion is linked to increased skin cancer, sun damage, and disruptive weather patterns, citing Hurricane Hugo as an example. It is estimated that repairing the ozone layer could take up to 200 years if damage ceases immediately, and if not, Earth could become a 'hothouse' similar to Venus. The text suggests that increased environmental awareness will lead to international laws and a global effort to protect the environment.

The Burning of the Rainforests & Atomic Testing

The issue addresses global responsibility for environmental issues like the burning of Brazilian rainforests and atomic testing. It asserts that any entity, country, or group that has an adverse effect on others, especially through global damage, has a right to object. This could necessitate a stronger role for bodies like the United Nations or the creation of a world court to enforce global rules and protect the planet.

English Will Be a Universal Language

While regional language variations will persist, English is predicted to become a more universal language due to its association with technology. Nations seeking to develop will need to learn English to utilize presented technologies. By 2060, English is expected to be a secondary language learned in schools worldwide, with electronic translators facilitating communication across languages.

The Effects of the Movie: "The Day After"

The 1983 movie 'The Day After' is identified as a significant 'switching mechanism' that shifted public consciousness away from the absolute polarization regarding nuclear war. It prompted entities to question the necessity of such conflict and consider a better world society, contributing to dialogues and agreements between former adversaries, like the U.S. and Russia.

Light Forces Are Now Directing the Energies

The newsletter suggests that 'Light Forces' are now directing humanity's course, leading to a different path and a more harmonious approach. This shift is seen as occurring rapidly within the latter half of the 1980s.

Will Churches Disappear? Will the Pentagon Ever Close Down?

Cosmic Awareness indicates that churches will evolve into 'mercy houses' offering support, and religious counseling will focus on coping and finding answers rather than indoctrination. While religious doctrines may persist, tolerance between religions is expected to increase. The Pentagon and military forces are not foreseen to disappear but will transform into organizations that handle emergencies, including natural disasters and social unrest, serving as national police forces.

What About Poverty & the Homeless?

The problem of poverty and homelessness is acknowledged as growing, particularly in the U.S. The newsletter suggests that future solutions will involve programs that help individuals develop skills and opportunities to overcome their circumstances, rather than perpetuating dependency. It criticizes current welfare systems for potentially punishing those who try to improve their situation.

The Significance of Japan Buying Up the United States

Japanese investment in U.S. farms, real estate, and banks is viewed with concern. While unlikely to be a conspiratorial effort to bankrupt the U.S., it is noted that Japanese investors are motivated by profit and the bargain prices in the U.S. compared to Japan. This influx of foreign capital is driving up prices, making it difficult for American citizens to afford property and potentially leading to resentment.

Japanese Banks--Goliaths of Finance

The rise of Japanese banks is discussed, with a mention of their origins linked to the Rockefeller brothers after World War II. The newsletter notes that these banks have become economic giants with significant global influence, potentially shifting banking controls. It remains to be seen whether this shift will be benevolent or lead to a new form of control.

The Waves Come In and Waves Go Out

This closing message uses the metaphor of waves to describe changes in political, social, and international affairs. It emphasizes the need for entities to be alert to new energies and to look toward the present and future, rather than living in the past. The concept of a 'new wave' of consciousness and global unity is presented.

Some Possible Effects of the Cosmic Moment: Looming Depression May Be Avoided or Greatly Lessened; An Update on Current Events

Cosmic Awareness indicates that enormous changes are occurring, driven by new energies that are fostering reconciliation and a breaking away from fears. The movement towards democracy in Communist bloc nations is seen as evidence of individuality's power. The newsletter suggests that the opening of new marketplaces in Eastern Europe and Russia could prevent a severe economic depression in the Western world, though some slowdown is still expected. The U.S. is encouraged to participate in this new global networking to benefit economically.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around a profound global transition, emphasizing spiritual evolution, environmental responsibility, and the formation of a unified global community. The editorial stance, as conveyed through 'Cosmic Awareness,' is one of hopeful anticipation for a more harmonious future, while acknowledging the challenges and complexities of this transformation. There is a consistent message of interconnectedness, the importance of consciousness shifts, and the potential for humanity to overcome past conflicts and limitations.

Title: Revelations of Awareness
Issue: Vol. 11, Issue No. 89-14 (Issue No. 351)
Date: 1989
Publisher: Cosmic Awareness Communications
Country: USA
Language: English

This issue of Revelations of Awareness delves into a range of contemporary issues, blending geopolitical analysis with spiritual and New Age perspectives. The publication addresses significant global events and trends, offering insights from 'Cosmic Awareness' on topics such as international relations, economic stability, and societal changes.

Will Germany Be Reunified Soon?

The article discusses the possibility of Germany's reunification. Cosmic Awareness indicates that reunification in the current century is highly unlikely. While there's a greater possibility in the next century, it's suggested that both East and West Germany will have developed strong individual identities and separate governing systems, leading to a relationship more akin to that of Canada and the United States, with common bonds but distinct governance. The piece also reflects on the historical context, suggesting that the Nazi movement could have been prevented if Germany had received sufficient economic assistance after World War I, rather than being left to flounder, which created a climate for radicalism.

Will Food Shortages Bring Down Mr. Gorbachev?

This section addresses the reported food crisis in Russia and its potential impact on Mikhail Gorbachev. Cosmic Awareness suggests that while this is a significant problem, Gorbachev's removal could lead to greater instability and the rise of radical elements. The potential solution lies in increased commercial trade between the United States and Russia, facilitated by a meeting between Gorbachev and President Bush. This exchange is seen as beneficial for US farmers and could help Russia improve its agricultural technology. However, it might also lead to increased food prices in the US. This situation is identified as a major concern for Gorbachev, driving his closer engagement with the West.

The Effects of Russia's "Weather War"

This article examines Russia's alleged weather modification techniques, initially believed to be for agricultural purposes, such as altering the jet stream to make the Tundra and Taiga regions farmable. Cosmic Awareness confirms the intention was to alter climate for farming and that while unintended negative effects on US weather were welcomed during the Cold War, the efforts to maintain a warmer climate were not permanently successful or cost-effective. The focus has shifted to genetic engineering for frost resistance and other advanced technologies. An exchange of hi-tech information between Russia and the US in areas like genetic engineering, electronics, and economics is anticipated to be a significant aspect of their relationship in the 1990s.

Was the Recent San Francisco Earthquake Caused by Cobalt Bombs?

This section investigates the cause of the San Francisco earthquake. Cosmic Awareness states that this particular earthquake does not appear to have been caused by cobalt bombs or Soviet devices. However, it suggests that an earthquake triggered in Mexico City and one in Armenia were indeed caused by Soviet devices. The reasons for these detonations are explored: in Armenia, it was likely a diversion from protests seeking freedom; in Mexico City, it was an attempt to intimidate the Mexican government regarding its oil resources, reflecting competition in the oil market. The article also mentions 'secret factions' within the Soviet Union carrying out unauthorized actions.

Big New Oil Field Discovered by Mexico

This brief segment discusses a reported discovery of a large oil reserve off the coast of Mexico. Cosmic Awareness states that this discovery was not known at the time of the San Francisco earthquake but acknowledges it could become an issue of rivalry in the future regarding control of the area and further discoveries.

Israel Is Violating Treaties: Why Should We Give Them Super-Computers to Wage Nuclear War?

This article questions why Israel, accused of violating treaties by supplying South Africa with nuclear secrets in exchange for uranium, should receive super-computers from the United States. Cosmic Awareness refers to Dr. Beter's past discussions about two factions: the Skoptsis and the Bolsheviks in Russia. It suggests that these factions, or their influences, may have moved to the United States and Israel. The term 'Bolshevik' is presented as a political system rather than a descriptor of Judaism, with a distinction made between Zionism as a political entity and Jewish people. The article posits that the Rockefeller camp and the Skoptsis formed a pact against the Bolsheviks, leading to the current detente between Russia and the US. It also touches upon the influence of these factions on US politics, referencing President Reagan's 'evil empire' remark and the subsequent shift in White House dynamics with the involvement of James Baker.

Romero and Liberation Theology

This section discusses Archbishop Romero of El Salvador and the concept of 'Liberation Theology'. Cosmic Awareness affirms that any entity, including priests, has the right to promote justice and prevent violence. It suggests that the decision to exercise this right depends on courage and wisdom. The article highlights the ongoing violence in El Salvador, where weapons supplied to the Contras are reportedly being sold to rebels, exacerbating the conflict. The 'free election' is described as a farce, with government troops allegedly gunning down peasants attempting to vote. The piece encourages support for organizations like CISPES and CAAC to alleviate suffering.

Stock Food and Have an Alternate Occupation

This section provides advice on economic preparedness. Cosmic Awareness advises entities to prepare for potential economic difficulties by stocking food and considering alternate occupations or starting their own businesses. It notes that minorities, including women and foreigners, have opportunities to seek federal grants for entrepreneurship. The message emphasizes the importance of self-reliance, creativity, and research in developing one's own business, offering personal satisfaction and control over one's life.

Healing Energies to C.A.C. Readers

This is a message reinforcing healing energies previously offered to members of Cosmic Awareness Communications. It acknowledges that some have benefited fully, while others have experienced blocks. The energy is described as being drawn from the 'White Light' of the universe and is intended to reinforce healing for individuals and the Awareness school in McMinnville.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue include geopolitical analysis, particularly concerning the Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, and the United States. There is a strong emphasis on economic stability and preparedness, with advice on entrepreneurship and stocking resources. The publication also touches upon conspiracy theories, particularly regarding the origins of earthquakes and the influence of hidden factions. The concept of 'Awareness' and spiritual growth is central, with messages about higher consciousness and the interconnectedness of humanity. The editorial stance appears to be one of providing alternative perspectives on current events, often from a spiritual or metaphysical viewpoint, and encouraging critical thinking about societal structures and power dynamics.

This Awareness indicates that this is creating a totally new face in humanity, for the situations that have prevailed over the past century in which nations have always held enemies as part of their own way of viewing their world, for now these nations are finding the enemies fewer and farther between, and that those who were once enemies, are now seeking friendship and association.
