Paul Shockley's Yorktowne Address: From the American Revolution to the World Revelation

Paul Shockley delivered an address in Yorktown, Pennsylvania, on November 15, 1977, marking the 200th anniversary of the signing of the Articles of Confederation. He presented this address to the people of Yorktowne, America, the world, and future generations. Shockley reflected on the historical significance of Yorktown as the place where the Continental Congress, driven from Philadelphia, convened to create a nation. He highlighted the dark hours of the Revolutionary War and the courage of those who signed the Articles of Confederation, creating the government of the United States.

He referenced historical sites in Yorktown, such as the Plough Tavern where founding fathers may have discussed self-governance, and the General Gates house, a site of a plot against George Washington. He also mentioned the significance of Thomas Paine's writings in unifying the people. Shockley emphasized that the United States has grown from its infancy into a 'Supernation,' but also acknowledged past struggles like the Civil War. He stated that the theme of the celebration, 'From the American Revolution to a World Revelation,' signifies present changes in political, economic, and spiritual consciousness.

Shockley discussed the global shift in values, from seeking strength to pursuing honesty, clarity, and mutual respect. He noted that while the nation has grown powerful, it has also faced challenges and created enemies. He posited that the use of power as a determining force will soon be replaced by communication and clarity in relationships. He stressed the importance of love, responsibility, and deeper concerns for all human beings. Addressing the human rights issue, Shockley argued that human rights are a global concern, transcending nationalities and affiliations. He called for a focus on human qualities, understanding individual insecurities, and learning to communicate and tolerate differences.

He advocated for a cautious approach towards a more mature way of relating, suggesting the placement of war machines into museums. Shockley urged nations to study disarmament and put away 'childish toys of war,' emphasizing the need to work together for the Earth's survival. He concluded by calling for reasoned dialogue, focusing on improving relations, human rights, and amplifying the hopes of ancestors for a better world for future generations.

The Effects of the Nov. 15th York Town Bicentennial Affair: (That Seed in Consciousness Begins to Sprout)

This section, presented as a 'Cosmic Awareness' message interpreted by Paul Shockley, uses an allegory to explain the significance of the November 15th event. The gathering in July, where the 'Unified States of Awareness' was presented as a concept, is likened to planting a seed in consciousness. The 'magic seeds' planted in Times Square are seen as reflective of this initial planting. The November gathering in Yorktown is then likened to the sprouting of that seed, with the opening and dedication of a 'sprout house' symbolizing this growth.

The allegory further describes Nature Spirits tending to the seed, assisting its growth and ensuring its energies are properly attended. In this context, humanity and the concept of the 'Unified States of Awareness' are the entities taking form. The July meeting represented the concept, while the November activity focused on formulating the actual structure and workings for its manifestation.

The 'sprout' of new consciousness is receiving attention, growing and emitting light that attracts more energy and assistance. The message also notes certain contacts between entities, the effects of which are not yet discernible but are considered significant. It highlights that some attendees learned important lessons for their personal soul growth, and karmic situations began to be resolved. The November gathering is also linked directly to the Founding Fathers, who signed the Articles of Confederation 200 years prior, suggesting an 'alchemical union' with the nation's 'genes' or DNA.

The message explains that this union taps into the nation's vibratory rate, creating a reflective vibration, akin to a musical note responding harmoniously to another. This process is difficult to explain in human terms, but vibrations are equated to material substances for allegorical purposes.

An Off-The-Cuff Report By Mary Ann Sipka, Minister of Awareness

Mary Ann Sipka provides a personal account of her trip to Yorktown from November 11th to November 16th, 1977. She describes the journey, which included unexpected snow, and her arrival in Yorktown, where she was warmly welcomed by members of the 'family,' including Sami Sunsong. She notes the strong sense of love, energy, and enthusiasm among the attendees.

Sipka details the events, including meetings of the Council of Twelve of the Unified States of Awareness. She highlights the difficulty of balancing attending talks with participating in council meetings. She describes the first council meeting as a 'blind date' aimed at establishing comfort and mutual understanding. The group also attended the premiere of a new play, 'Mass of the Revolution,' by Larry Raginhart, which she found to be a moving and inspiring experience.

She mentions hearing presentations on the relationship of spirituality and sexuality by Art Rosenblum, and on Universal Economics by Gabriel Green. Sipka expresses her pleasure at having Allen Michael and Gabriel Green as new members of the Council, viewing them as assets to the venture. She describes the intense discussions and the feeling of being part of something significant, where individual selves seemed to merge into a collective voice.

Sipka recounts the council meetings continuing late into the night, even after the building closed, and the group adjourning to the Springettsbury Mansion. She notes the dedication of the council members in setting up a firm foundation for future meetings. She also mentions a vegetarian banquet that felt like a festive family meal. The report concludes with her departure and a lingering sense of purpose and happiness.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The issue strongly emphasizes themes of consciousness evolution, spiritual growth, and the interconnectedness of humanity. It highlights the historical significance of the American Revolution as a foundation for present-day spiritual and social changes. The concept of 'planting seeds' in consciousness and witnessing their 'sprouting' is a central metaphor. There is a clear focus on human rights, mutual respect, and the transition from power-based interactions to communication and love. The editorial stance appears to be one of promoting a higher awareness, unity, and a global perspective that transcends national and religious boundaries, advocating for peace and disarmament. The publication, Cosmic Awareness Communications, positions itself as a conduit for this evolving consciousness.

This document is a Special Report from Cosmic Awareness Communications, dated around November 15th, likely from 1977, focusing on a significant event and its implications for a new era. The report details a celebration that marked the launching of the 'Unified States of Awareness' and the New Age.

Key Events and Concepts

The November 15th Celebration is described as a magical event of the highest level, sowing seeds of consciousness that began to sprout from a July 15, 1977 meeting in York Town. This celebration was the official launch of the 'Unified States of Awareness' and the 'New Age,' heralding the liberation of mankind. A central theme is the introduction of the 'Akashic Record' as the structural pattern for a new world government, which was brought forth by 'Cosmic Awareness.'

At this event in York Town, the first tier of this new world government, the 'Council of Twelve,' was elected. The report encourages interested individuals to obtain booklets such as 'The Akashic Record,' 'A Magic Happening at York Town,' and trance lectures given by Awareness. These materials discuss the relinquishment of power from the hierarchy of the inner planes to the masses on the earth plane.

Additionally, trance readings on 'The Illuminati Conspiracy' are recommended for those interested in a 'cosmic plot' involving international banks and a 'Beast' computer in Europe, which is seen as an attempt to enslave mankind, as predicted in the Biblical Book of Revelations. These readings and other publications are available to members of Cosmic Awareness Communications for a nominal fee.

Speakers and Performances

The report lists several entities who spoke at the November 15th Celebration, covering a range of topics. These include Linda Palmer on 'Feeding the World,' Clark Forden on 'World Peace,' Marvin Cooley on 'Legal Income Tax Evasion,' Dan Silva with an introduction to 'KI-ANA healing,' Grace Lallos on 'Auras as a Basis for Healing,' and Connie McQuay on 'Nutritional Counseling.'
