Opening Message and Connection to Awareness

The issue begins with a message from Cosmic Awareness, thanking the interpreters and energizer for their attempts to connect. It emphasizes the importance of these attempts for strengthening communication and becoming more familiar with the energies of Awareness.

"What Jesus Meant in Matthew 16:25"

Cosmic Awareness explains the passage "Whoever would save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake, will find it." It clarifies that Jesus was referring to the release from and resistance to letting go of material possessions and human beliefs. True enlightenment, it states, is a death to materialism and a release into freedom, finding Christ Consciousness by letting go of possessive beliefs.

"After a Pacemaker Will Heart Ever Heal?"

In response to a question from Annie Croxton, Cosmic Awareness affirms that the heart can heal after a pacemaker insertion. It stresses the importance of belief, stating that a negative belief can be detrimental, while a positive belief that the pacemaker will assist in maintaining the heart's pace is crucial for its effectiveness.

"Will 2012 Be Just Another Day on the Calendar?"

Addressing a question from Laurie Planesi, Cosmic Awareness discusses the Mayan calendar and the predicted end date of December 21, 2012. While acknowledging the validity of the predictions, it urges flexibility, stating that 2012 is a date, not necessarily the definitive end. The focus should be on the present moment, as changes are already accelerating. It emphasizes that these are indeed the end times, predicted by many cultures, and a shift in human consciousness is occurring.

"Oral Roberts Missile Prophecy"

Cosmic Awareness dismisses a prophecy by Oral Roberts about nuclear missiles being intercepted by God in 2006, stating that there will not be a nuclear missile fired at the US in 2006, and therefore, no divine intervention will be needed. It deems the vision false.

"Icicles Hanging From Her Roof Are Doing Weird and Mysterious Things"

Reverend Marrfia Saint Michael asks about icicles pointing towards her meditation room. Cosmic Awareness explains this phenomenon as the water molecules being attracted to the potent spiritual energy emitted from the meditator. It references the work of Dr. Masaru Emoto on water crystals and their response to positive energy, indicating the power of meditation.

"When Will We Stop Killing Animals for Food?"

Jennifer Raymond asks about the importance of ceasing the killing of animals for food. Cosmic Awareness explains this as a complex issue with many levels. It states that animals offer themselves for sustenance, but as humanity evolves, this will become unnecessary. It emphasizes that while not all humans have reached this enlightened state, it is a process of moving towards an alignment with the animal world. It also notes that plants have an awareness and experience pain when picked, refuting the idea that only animal consumption is problematic.

"What is the Cure for Diabetes?"

Cosmic Awareness states it is not able to answer the question about cures for diabetes II and hypothyroidism at this time, leaving it for a future date. It suggests that entities with these illnesses should examine what the illness represents to them. It also notes that the interpreter is not yet ready to fully channel this information.

The Human Potential Movement

In response to JD Rabbit, Cosmic Awareness indicates that the principle of mind over matter, central to the human potential movement, has existed for many generations and is simply presented in different terminologies.

"Who Exactly Was Gautama Buddha?"

JD Rabbit inquires about Gautama Buddha's role as a world teacher, alongside Jesus. Cosmic Awareness explains that spiritual guides often play roles within the context of astrological ages. It references the book "16 Crucified Saviors Before Christ" and notes parallels between the stories of Christ, Buddha, and Krishna, suggesting these narratives are ancient archetypes. It states that Maitreya is expected to be the World Teacher for the Aquarian Age.

The Meaning of the Pouring of Water in Aquarius

Cosmic Awareness explains that in the Age of Aquarius, the pouring of water symbolizes giving service or blessings. It connects this to electricity and high-tech advancements, with the symbol of man pouring water representing dominion over electricity and its use for enhancement.

Maitreya and the Role of Lord of Aquarius

It is suggested that Maitreya may play the role of the Lord of Aquarius, presenting a cosmological philosophy that extends beyond earthly concerns.

"Who Gave Benjamin Crème's Maitreya Group $100,000?"

Cosmic Awareness declines to reveal the identity of the donor, stating that if the person wished for this information to be public, they would have made it so.

Christ: The World Teacher at the Start of the Piscean Age

This section delves into the creation of the Christ story, suggesting it was an "artificial" or man-made narrative, similar to efforts to promote Maitreya. It posits that entities worked behind the scenes to create a myth for the Piscean Age to influence the masses. The stories of Jesus are said to be lifted from earlier writings, with parallels to other ancient savior myths.

The Piso Family of Rome Wrote the New Testament

This section controversially claims that the New Testament was written by a family in Rome, the Piso family, who used various pen names, including a Jewish Rabbi name. The purpose was to create a unifying mythology for the Roman Empire, drawing from various existing religious traditions.

The Pope's Hat Looks Like the Face of a Fish

This Awareness notes that the Pope's headdress resembles a fish, symbolizing the Piscean Age and the deity known as the "Fisherman." This symbolism aligns with the age's astrological opposite, Virgo.

The Age of Aries and the Law of Moses

This Awareness explains that the Age of Aries was ruled by laws and covenants, with the Ark of the Covenant serving as a symbol of God's agreement with the people.

Cosmic Cycles and Astrology

The newsletter discusses how astrological ages (approximately 2000-2100 years each) move in a counter-clockwise direction on the zodiac, forming a larger 25,000-year cycle. It clarifies that astrological symbols are representations of qualities associated with celestial positions, not causes of those qualities.

Masonry Helped Guide the Christian Religion

It is suggested that Masonry played a role in guiding ancient Egypt and the Christian religion, and is now guiding the Aquarian Age in creating a new religion.

"Satan" Could Play a Role in the Age of Aquarius

This Awareness discusses the potential influence of Saturn (or Set in Egyptian mythology) in the Age of Aquarius, noting its association with harshness and demanding qualities, which could be personified as Satan. It emphasizes that Satan is a force created by belief, not an independent entity.

"Did Sidhartha Gautama Really Exist?"

Cosmic Awareness confirms that Sidhartha Gautama was a Lord of the Piscean Age in Asia, and that the world was scattered into small portions at that time.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around spiritual evolution, the nature of consciousness, the interpretation of religious and historical figures within astrological ages, and the concept of a guiding cosmic awareness. The editorial stance appears to be one of esoteric interpretation, drawing connections between ancient prophecies, astrology, and New Age philosophies, often presenting controversial or unconventional viewpoints on religious history and future events. There is a strong emphasis on personal spiritual growth, letting go of materialism, and living in the present moment.

This issue of Cosmic Awareness Communications, identified as Taurus: Volume 2 Lesson Number 4, dated April 1988, focuses on spiritual growth, health, and inquiries into government secrets. The cover headline, "How Awareness Deals With Questions on Top-Secret Government Operations," highlights a key theme.

Surrender to the Divine Creator

The central theme revolves around the concept of surrendering the self to the Divine Creator. The text explains that true divinity resides within each individual, and the act of seeking the Divine Light externally is a misunderstanding. The message of Buddha and Christ is presented as being the same: to recognize that one is already One with God. The best way to surrender self is to acknowledge that the self was not created without Divine influence and to give oneself into God's hands with humility. This leads to a state of trust and allows the Divine to guide one's life, eliminating the need for self-glorification or impressing others. The issue distinguishes true Divine Guidance from claims of divine instruction used to justify criminal acts, identifying the latter as the influence of lower, demonic forces.

Health Hints and Physical Well-being

Several sections address health concerns. One question details a problem with psoriasis of the penis and warts, attributing it to long-term nervous conditions and faulty diet. The suggested remedies include disciplined diet, meditation, relaxation, self-hypnosis, and a specific oil combination. Another section tackles the common problem of difficulty and urgency in urination for older men. It references Dr. John Matsen's work on prostate treatment and general health improvement through detoxification and proper nutrition. Diuretic teas and dietary adjustments are also recommended.

The issue also discusses allergies, particularly to dust mites, paper mites, cat mites, and dog mites. It acknowledges the difficulty of complete eradication, especially in environments with large amounts of paper. Suggestions include using atomizer sprays, ammonia, or natural antibiotics, though caution is advised regarding potential side effects. Frequent vacuuming, keeping pets out, and using protective measures like masks are also mentioned. The effectiveness of commercial flea bombs and air purifiers is considered, with the latter potentially offering localized relief.

Understanding the Self and Relationships

The concept of "giving up control" is explored, suggesting a gradual release of self-control to the Divine. This process is described as a matter of choice and can be facilitated by recognizing that the Divine Creator is in control. The text emphasizes that clinging to control stems from past negative experiences and insecurity. A song lyric by Leonard Cohen is quoted to illustrate the idea that trying to control too much hinders enjoyment of life.

The "Story of the Two Awareness Ministers in Arizona" illustrates how letting go of control can lead to greater enjoyment and fun in life. The analogy of not needing to "direct traffic" but simply letting it flow is used.

New Age Concepts and Organizations

The issue touches upon introducing New Age concepts to others, advising against aggressive proselytizing and encouraging sharing messages when someone is troubled or seeking discussion. It suggests using introductory booklets and small tracts as communication tools.

A significant portion of the magazine is dedicated to comparing the Aquarian Church and the Universal Life Church. The Aquarian Church is described as having more restrictive by-laws and specific purposes related to spreading Awareness projects. The Universal Life Church, with its broad base and fewer restrictions, is noted for allowing maximum individual expression and for its support from entities like the Catholic Church, making it more difficult to attack. The rapid growth of the Universal Life Church is attributed partly to its tax-exempt status for ministers, attracting some individuals for economic reasons. However, it is suggested that the church may evolve to provide messages and guidance, potentially becoming a force for peace.

The text also discusses the nature of organizations, stating that their worth is not solely measured by wealth or membership numbers but by their spiritual value. It critiques the old Calvinistic principle of equating material wealth with spiritual progress. The importance of a healthy home environment for a child is highlighted, emphasizing the spirit of the home and family relationships over material possessions.

Top-Secret Government Operations

In response to a question about top-secret government projects like Majestic 12, Project Aquarius, and Project Sigma, Cosmic Awareness states that it is not wise to present classified information that could cause harm. While acknowledging that such programs exist and that some information may leak out, it emphasizes that much is censored. The entity is advised that this energy is not available for answering such questions at this time, and that Cosmic Awareness answers questions of importance that help entities develop spiritually, rather than merely satisfying curiosity.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are spiritual surrender, the nature of consciousness, self-awareness, and the importance of inner divinity. The editorial stance is one of guiding individuals toward spiritual understanding and self-realization, while also providing practical advice on health and navigating societal structures. There is a consistent emphasis on questioning, exploring, and discovering truth for oneself, rather than blindly accepting information. The publication also highlights the role of Cosmic Awareness as a source of spiritual guidance, communicating through trained channels to assist in the transition to a "New Age."
