This issue of "Revelations of Awareness: The Cosmic Newsletter" celebrates its 27th year and features a prominent cover story on "Sai Baba: Is he really God Incarnate?" alongside other articles exploring spiritual concepts and contemporary issues.

The Truth About Sai Baba

The main article, "The Truth About Sai Baba," features a dialogue between JD Rabbit (Questioner) and Cosmic Awareness, interpreted by Paul Shockley. The discussion probes whether Sai Baba is a "Cosmic Avatar," meaning not of earth evolution but originating from a divine, possibly extraterrestrial or ultradimensional, source. Cosmic Awareness confirms that the entity's origin is affirmative, suggesting a soul originating from off-planet, but clarifies that this is not unique to Sai Baba, as other entities on Earth also have souls originating elsewhere. The core question is whether Sai Baba is a manifestation of the Godhead itself. Cosmic Awareness explains that Sai Baba, through a "Cosmic Leap in Spiritual Evolution," ascended to Divinity in human form, akin to Jesus the Christ, by achieving a high spiritual attunement over many lifetimes. This process involved being guided by spiritual beings to reach a frequency in harmony with Divine Frequencies.

Is It Cosmic Awareness That Shines Through Sai Baba?

When asked if Cosmic Awareness Itself shines through Avatars, Cosmic Awareness clarifies that it is not reflective of the channeler but speaks through many outlets, each with its own uniqueness. The nature of Cosmic Awareness is described as the universal consciousness that permeates all of Creation, and that Avatars reflect this Divinity. The concept of "The Real Name of Cosmic Awareness" is explored, suggesting it is the Divine Principle that is the source of all life and consciousness, and that Avatars are manifestations of this principle.

Other Featured Articles

Krishnamurti: "The Guru to End All Gurus"
This section discusses Krishnamurti's approach, contrasting the Gnani Yoga (path of knowledge) with Bhakti Yoga (path of devotion). Krishnamurti is presented as advocating for self-realization and cautioning against creating leader-follower relationships, urging people to recognize their own Divinity rather than worshipping gurus. His organization also followed this principle, advising students to avoid becoming dependent on teachers.

The Problem with Depending on a Guru
Cosmic Awareness highlights the potential problems of dependency on a guru, such as drawing energy from the devotee and hindering their self-discovery. It suggests that the ultimate goal is to become One with the Divine, rather than seeking fulfillment through external figures like sports heroes, actors, or even God-realized individuals. Surrendering oneself to the Divine is presented as the primary step.

"Every Vile and Wretched Thing You Do," says Ramtha, "Broadens Your Understanding."
This section addresses a controversial statement attributed to Ramtha, channeled through J.Z. Knight. Cosmic Awareness comments that if this is indeed Ramtha's statement, it lacks depth and could be dangerously misinterpreted, potentially excusing immoral behavior. It suggests the statement might have been an attempt by the channeler to preempt criticism of her own behavior. Entities are advised to avoid accepting this statement literally, as it is too broad and could lead to tragic interpretations.

Is Injecting Ozone Dangerous?
In response to a question from Dr. S.K., Cosmic Awareness states that direct intravenous injection of ozone is dangerous, potentially causing gaseous pockets in the blood that could lead to death. However, breathing ozone is considered beneficial and safe when done properly, with instructions available for devices that facilitate this.

A Child's Learning Disorder: Any Help?
Cosmic Awareness notes that learning disorders in children are common, often linked to medications. It mentions Dr. Duarte's book on alternative medicines as a resource and offers to provide contact information.

Did Nostradamus Foresee 2012 Changes?
This section addresses the authenticity of Nostradamus's predictions, suggesting that many later predictions attributed to him are forgeries created by others seeking to profit from his name, especially those that conflict with his earlier works or present-day predictions.

A Golden Age is Seen Coming Soon!
This closing message describes a symbolic vision of a "golden temple" in the future, representing a golden age where humanity achieves full spiritual growth and joins advanced spiritual cultures. This transition involves moving through a "dark void of uncertainty" toward a new dimension, leading to a sense of wonder and appreciation for humanity's journey.

"THE CHANCE TO EVOLVE ON THIS PLANE IS VERY SLIM"-(G.I. GURDJIEFF)
This article explores G.I. Gurdjieff's teachings on human evolution, particularly his view that Earth is a "very poor place" for spiritual evolution due to "extreme density of mechanical laws." Gurdjieff believed that only a limited number of individuals could attain a high level of awareness, as the biosphere serves as an energy transducer and changing the general level of consciousness could disrupt this flow. Cosmic Awareness confirms that Earth's vibratory rate is not healthy and that while Gurdjieff's statement reflects a past difficulty, opportunities for evolution are greater now, though temptations to regress also exist. The article emphasizes that while Gurdjieff's observations about entities being "asleep" and the difficulty of self-awareness are valid, the key to overcoming this lies in subtle shifts in attitude and perception, and ultimately in surrendering to the Divine.

GURDJIEFF SAYS ENTITIES ARE MACHINES AND ARE ASLEEP
This section delves into Gurdjieff's concept of entities being "machines" and "asleep," with self-consciousness existing only as a potential. The article discusses methods like self-remembering and self-observing to demonstrate the difficulty of self-awareness. Cosmic Awareness clarifies that "free will" on this plane is largely about choosing attitudes and reactions, often dictated by past conditioning. However, it suggests that a slight shift in the mind, a decision to change direction, can initiate a profound change in one's life and spiritual progression. A meditation exercise is proposed to observe oneself from an external perspective to gain clarity and objectivity.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around the nature of divinity, spiritual evolution, and the role of gurus and self-awareness. Cosmic Awareness Communications consistently emphasizes the importance of direct connection with the Divine, self-surrender, and personal responsibility over blind devotion to external figures. The editorial stance appears to be one of guiding readers toward self-realization and understanding the universal consciousness, while critically examining popular spiritual figures and New Age trends. There is a strong emphasis on discerning truth and avoiding potentially misleading or harmful doctrines, as seen in the discussions on Sai Baba, Ramtha, and the dangers of ozone injection.

This issue of "CAC General Reading," dated May 31st, 1998, is presented as a transcript of a channeled session with "Cosmic Awareness," with Grace acting as the interpreter. The publication focuses on spiritual development, consciousness, and self-awareness, drawing upon various philosophical and spiritual traditions.

The Nature of Self-Observation and the Eternal Now

The issue begins by exploring the concept of observing oneself observing, a form of meditation that can alter one's perception of time and experience. This state allows an entity to view their life objectively, as if watching a movie, stretching years into a single moment. This experience is described as a profound meditation that can alter one's life by offering a new perspective on being. The text likens this to Gurdjieff's teachings on transcending the moment to experience an 'eternal now,' where past memories can be relived as if occurring in the present.

Seth Material and Jane Roberts

A significant portion of the issue is dedicated to the work of Jane Roberts and the "Seth Material." Cosmic Awareness validates the observation that "The Nature of Personal Reality" and other Seth books are in sync with the "Lessons of Enlightenment." It is suggested that Jane Roberts played a unique role in ushering in a new consciousness, laying groundwork for current progress. The channeling of Seth is described as a direct communication from a future aspect of self, unimpeded by time and space limitations, designed to remove limitations from mass-consciousness. The material is presented as a foundation for a new phase of human consciousness.

The Three Forces: Life, Love, and Natural Force

The issue explains that the Life Force, Love Force, and Natural Force are essentially the same energy. Uniting these concepts can help in unifying belief systems and perspectives, leading to more focused and rapid results. Entities are encouraged to attune to the Life Force as a flow of energy, and to recognize the Love Force as a means of affiliation and communion. The Natural Force is presented as a third process through which entities can intuitively connect with the natural world, fostering a deeper understanding and inner knowingness.

The "Third Personality of Christ"

Referencing a section from "Seth Speaks," the issue discusses prophecies about a "third personality of Christ" who will not come with a grand proclamation but will work to straighten out Christianity and establish a new system of thought by the year 2075. This personality will be known as a great psychic, teaching humanity to use inner senses for true spirituality, leading to a recognition of the sacredness of all life.

Merlin's Gift and Longevity

A question about Merlin, a spirit guide claiming to have reincarnated as Saint Germaine, is addressed. Merlin's purported formula for a potion of longevity involves a sea-salt water base infused with love energy. Cosmic Awareness suggests that while the potion may be effective, its true power lies in the recipient's understanding of love and their awakened inner guidance mechanisms. The riddle posed by Merlin is about infusing the liquid with love energy, conditional upon self-understanding.

Relationships and Emotional Responses

The issue explores the dynamics of feeling cornered in relationships, leading to lashing out. It explains that such behavior often stems from unfulfilled needs for connection, sometimes stemming from past abandonment issues. The importance of honoring all human needs—connection, freedom, meaning, power, and creativity—is emphasized. When these needs are not balanced, negative emotional responses and defensive cycles can occur. The advice given is to understand the situation, offer compassion, and share the "Lessons of Enlightenment" with the other person.

The Nature of Pain and Emotional Release

Cosmic Awareness discusses how intense emotional responses, such as those experienced during severe life challenges, are a natural part of human experience and a signal for action. It suggests that while these emotions can be overwhelming, they are not inherently dangerous. The key is to understand them as signals and allow for their physiological release through methods like crying or physical movement. Mental analysis should follow the emotional dissipation. The issue stresses that humans are intended to be masters of their emotions, using them as a road to salvation.

Medical Approaches: Allopathic, Ayurvedic, and Chinese Medicine

This section addresses the question of trusting medical practitioners. Cosmic Awareness distinguishes between Western allopathic medicine, which focuses on symptoms and often denies the mind-body-spirit connection, and Eastern traditions like Ayurveda and Chinese medicine, which emphasize the holistic interconnectedness of a person. It suggests that while allopathic medicine has its place, entities should also consider Eastern approaches that focus on prevention and energy balance. The issue notes that Western medicine is beginning to investigate energy medicine, reflecting a shift in consciousness.

Dealing with Mercury Fillings and Dental Health

The issue touches upon the belief that mercury fillings can cause various ailments, suggesting that while some substances can affect human tissues, negative effects are often amplified by belief structures. It advises that removing fillings can lead to increased absorption. For dental health, the recommendation is a balanced diet rich in calcium and minerals, along with hygienic practices like brushing and flossing.

The Christ Energy and the New Age

The closing message reiterates the importance of the Christ energy and the unfolding of human consciousness. It highlights the "Lessons of Enlightenment" as a unifying force that can integrate various contributions and strategies, facilitating enlightenment and empowerment. The information is presented as crucial for the current time, serving as a glue to unite diverse energies and prepare for a predicted awaited era.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around consciousness, self-awareness, spiritual growth, and the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. Cosmic Awareness consistently emphasizes the power of belief systems, the importance of emotional intelligence, and the need for a holistic approach to healing and life. The editorial stance is one of encouraging exploration, questioning, and personal discovery, urging readers to integrate spiritual understanding into their daily lives and to move beyond limitations imposed by mass-consciousness. The publication promotes the "Lessons of Enlightenment" as a key resource for achieving these goals.
