How to Develop Your Magnetic Center
This section introduces the concept of a magnetic center, drawing from P.D. Ouspensky's work, which is an inner draw towards specific interests or information. Cosmic Awareness aims to help entities develop this center, suggesting that by allowing spontaneity and focusing mental and emotional energy on a topic, one can be drawn to fulfilling their quests. This can manifest as unexpected discoveries, such as finding a relevant book or meeting someone with crucial information. The process strengthens the magnetic center, moving from thought to action driven by subconscious urgings. The article emphasizes that this is not about conscious willing but about opening oneself to inner guidance.
It highlights that this phenomenon is common, likening it to how entities might be drawn to garage sales or clothing stores. The key is to develop this magnetic center for mundane things or more significant pursuits. For those seeking opportunities, a developed magnetic center can lead to business ventures or spiritual guidance. The article stresses that desire itself creates a vacuum, and focusing on that desire, rather than a specific person, allows the universe to provide the right fulfillment. It cautions against manipulative desires and emphasizes that the universe abhors a vacuum, filling it with appropriate energies when one holds the focus and allows the process to unfold.
Is Synchronicity a Magnetic Centering?
This section addresses a question about synchronicity, as discussed by UFO researcher Valdamar Valarian. Cosmic Awareness confirms that synchronicity is a similar concept, referring to energies or entities coming together in time, often perceived as coincidences. It explains that 'synchronize' means 'same time.' While synchronicity focuses on the coming together of events or entities, the concept of the magnetic center is more about the manifesting or pulling of desired things to oneself. Holding focus on a quest or goal allows for manifestation, and if the goal is unclear, one may still be drawn to the answer without immediate recognition.
Self-Worth Problems and Finding a Companion
This part addresses a follow-up question regarding a nephew's self-worth issues and unsuccessful relationships. Cosmic Awareness explains that guardian angels bring compatible entities together when they are mature enough to sacrifice personal ego for respect and love. The article then explores how to overcome the rule of the ego, stating that relationships require ego sacrifice. Fragile egos struggle to relate, while strong egos, understanding their resilience, can embrace vulnerability and risk affection, which is essential for genuine love. It suggests accepting one's own vulnerability and weaknesses to become stronger and more capable of expressing love without fear of devastation.
When Strangers Suddenly Appear and Latch On to You
This section discusses how strangers might approach and engage in conversation, often leading to unexpected exchanges of information. It questions if this is related to the magnetic center attracting people. Cosmic Awareness affirms this, stating it's common and aligns with the principle, "When the student is ready, the teacher appears." This occurs because the magnetic center draws together entities with a vacuum (need for knowledge) and those with answers. This exchange is described as a social parallel to sexual intercourse, where the release of energies harmonizes polarities and brings relief to both parties.
Letting Go and Letting God
This section connects the concept of letting go of a quest with "letting go and letting God." Cosmic Awareness explains that holding onto a desire prevents subconscious and higher forces from working. Turning the desire over to higher forces allows for manifestation. This involves energizing the goal, working to one's utmost, and then surrendering the outcome to higher forces, as in "Thy will be done." This process opens opportunities for movement towards the goal, provided it is ethical.
Will God Really Get You a Million Dollars?
This part addresses the expectation of receiving large sums of money directly from higher forces. Cosmic Awareness clarifies that these forces may provide means to achieve goals or help one learn how to earn money, rather than simply handing it over. It emphasizes that shortcuts are not how it works and that entities must be open to opportunities and learning. Information is provided as the primary means by which higher forces assist, directing entities to resources and knowledge.
How Spiritual Forces Do Help Provide Wealth
This section explains that spiritual forces don't always grant requests directly, especially if unreasonable or harmful. Wealth can be manifested through natural channels or opportunities. The article cautions against expecting money to appear out of thin air and highlights that while mantras and rituals can help focus the mind, they are not a substitute for action. It suggests that opportunities may come as whispers, signs, or messages, guiding one towards earning money through practical means, such as working with others or developing businesses.
Burning Up the Wish Lists in Japan
This section discusses a ritual in Japan where prayers written on scrolls are burned. Cosmic Awareness states this is relatively effective as it works on the subconscious, giving entities faith that their prayers have been sent. The effectiveness depends on the individual's faith and the complexity of the quest. Simple quests are more likely to manifest than extremely difficult ones, like receiving the Hope Diamond.
How One Man Creates Wealth Through 'SADHNA'
This article features an interview with Kumar Srivastava, who claims to have achieved wealth through 'sadhna,' a practice involving specific mantras. He explains that sadhna can change one's fate or destiny. Kumar, who came to the U.S. with nothing, now owns multiple businesses. He emphasizes that sadhna is a practice, and to achieve wealth, one must engage with practices related to the Goddess of Wealth, Laxmi. He clarifies that mantras are like tools that need to be activated and that belief is crucial for their effectiveness. He also notes that mantras can help mitigate negative karma.
Kumar explains that his knowledge comes from a siddha ashram in northern Tibet. He believes that making wealth accessible to those on a spiritual path is important because many are consumed by survival, hindering their spiritual growth. He states that mantras can accelerate spiritual progress and help achieve goals like financial stability, comfortable living, and even overcoming financial difficulties by creating a favorable atmosphere or attracting supportive individuals.
Some Things Required For Wealth & Success
This closing message emphasizes that creating a magnetic center is vital for spiritual development and success. It also highlights the importance of speech patterns, dress, ethical relationships, credibility, strong desire, ambition, persistence, and specialized knowledge. Persistence is identified as a key quality, which can be developed by refusing to quit and by teaching children to persist. The article suggests that for a child to develop persistence, parents can use conditional rewards, like offering a cookie only after a request is repeated or a task is completed.
Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance
The recurring themes in this issue revolve around the power of the mind, subconscious, and spiritual practices in manifesting desires and achieving goals, particularly wealth and personal fulfillment. There's a strong emphasis on the interplay between inner focus, belief, and external action. The editorial stance, as conveyed by Cosmic Awareness, is that while spiritual tools like mantras and magnetic centers are powerful, they are most effective when integrated with practical efforts and a grounded understanding of reality. The magazine promotes self-responsibility, persistence, and ethical conduct as fundamental to success and spiritual growth.
This issue of "REVELATIONS OF AWARENESS" from May 20, 1992, published by Cosmic Awareness Communications, focuses on themes of persistence, government fiscal responsibility, racial justice, and the nature of consciousness. The cover features an illustration with the word "pray..." and the tagline "IT PAYS!", hinting at spiritual or practical applications of belief.
Persistence and Success
The issue begins by explaining how to cultivate persistence in children, suggesting that by not immediately giving in to a child's requests for a cookie, but by encouraging them to ask repeatedly, they learn the value of not giving up. This quality is presented as essential for future success and developing a winning attitude. The text warns against punishing persistence, as this can lead to a tragic mindset of giving up after the first rejection. It emphasizes that persistence, coupled with patience and guidance, helps individuals develop a good self-image and the ability to achieve their goals.
Government Spending and National Debt
A significant portion of the magazine addresses the issue of government spending and its impact on national debt. It criticizes the "war machine's continuing waste" and the "runaway spending" of the government, which is seen as a real threat to citizens and their future. The article argues that funding for military projects and equipment, often purchased at inflated prices and with questionable utility, contributes to a massive national debt. This debt is described as being shifted onto the earnings of current and future generations, potentially leading to a loss of freedoms. The text suggests that the end of the Cold War should have led to a "peace dividend" to reduce this debt, rather than building new armaments. The article implies that this financial mismanagement is largely driven by banks and serves their interests, potentially leading to a future where the people serve the banks.
The Rodney King Incident and Racial Unrest
The magazine extensively discusses the Rodney King affair, including the assault by police officers and the subsequent riots in Los Angeles. It questions the jury's "Not guilty" verdict, suggesting that the jury may have been intimidated or felt pressured to acquit the officers, fearing repercussions from the police department. The article posits that the jury's decision, combined with existing racial tensions, particularly between Black and Korean communities in Los Angeles, fueled the widespread violence. It also touches upon the role of the media in repeatedly showing the King beating video, suggesting it was news because it was "awesome and unusual" and that hiding it would make the media complicit in the injustice. The possibility of "Gay Bashing" as a motive for the beating is also explored, with the idea that perpetrators may be acting out of fear of their own latent tendencies.
Political Commentary
In relation to the Rodney King incident and the general climate, the magazine touches upon political figures. It questions whether Ross Perot could end the waste in government spending and suggests that if he doesn't win the election, citizens should petition for change. A question is posed about whether Ross Perot is the best choice for president, with "Cosmic Awareness" stating that Perot has a wholesome background, strong practicality, and devotion to traditional values, suggesting he could have a significant positive impact. The article also briefly mentions Bill Clinton, noting a negative spiritual assessment attached to him.
Cosmic Awareness and the Godhead
A substantial section is dedicated to explaining the nature of "Cosmic Awareness" and its relationship to the "Godhead" (or "Sach Khan"). Cosmic Awareness is described as an energy or vibratory force that emanates from the Godhead, which is the ultimate source of potential and the "First Cause." It is explained as the highest vibration or frequency in motion, representing the Creator, but there is also a state beyond that which does not speak or vibrate – the static potential. Cosmic Awareness is presented as the Divine Mind, the vibrating electromagnetic spectrum, and the creative force for all things, extending through all frequencies down to the densest forms of matter. The text clarifies that Cosmic Awareness is not a human entity but a vibration and consciousness, and that the "Interpreter" translates these energies into words and images for human understanding. It addresses the question of why one would pray to Cosmic Awareness, suggesting that while it is consciousness, it is the conduit through which the Divine Mind operates, and that entities may seek its guidance.
Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance
The recurring themes in this issue are the importance of inner qualities like persistence and compassion, the dangers of unchecked government spending and debt, the complexities of racial and social justice, and the exploration of higher consciousness. The editorial stance, as conveyed through "Cosmic Awareness," appears to be one of seeking truth, promoting understanding of universal laws, and encouraging individuals to develop their potential while being aware of societal and governmental issues. There is a consistent emphasis on the consequences of actions, both individual and collective, and a call for greater awareness and balance in society.
