A Personal Letter from Timothy Green Beckley

Timothy Green Beckley, the publisher of INNER LIGHT magazine, shares a personal letter to the readers. He recounts his lifelong fascination with the unexplained, stemming from childhood experiences with a haunted house and astral projection. Beckley asserts his conviction in communication with spirit worlds and space entities. He has studied comparative religions, ancient civilizations, and lost worlds, believing that ancient wisdom holds more truth than modern science often allows. He expresses a desire to share the secrets of ancient Egypt and the knowledge of powerful, invisible forces that gave pharaohs control, urging readers to order his book, "THE GREAT PYRAMID SPEAKS."

The Great Pyramid Speaks: Unveiling Ancient Secrets

The magazine extensively promotes "THE GREAT PYRAMID SPEAKS," a book by Timothy Green Beckley. It posits that the Great Pyramid holds answers to modern global problems and served a purpose beyond a burial tomb, acting as an energy conveyor and a beacon of power. The book suggests that the pyramid's construction involved levitation, not slave labor, and that its hidden chambers contain a riddle designed to provide revelations for the current century and beyond. The text emphasizes that this knowledge was suppressed due to a lack of cosmic awareness but is now timely as humanity enters the Aquarian Age.

Tombs of the Living Dead

This section discusses secluded vaults near the Great Pyramid, supposedly containing living adepts whose minds are conscious and can project telepathically. These adepts are believed to be guarded by spirits and communicate wisdom from ancient masses.

Amazing Prophecies Foretold in Egyptian Tarot Cards

It is revealed that Tarot cards originated in ancient Egypt and were designed to predict world history up to 2100 A.D. The "Wheel of Fortune" card, featuring the Sphinx, is highlighted. The cards were preserved by being given to gamblers, ensuring their survival through historical events like the burning of the Alexandrian Library.

Pharaohs Contacted Their Guardian Angels

Excavators in Egypt have found images of unknown entities in tombs, believed to be the pharaohs' guardian angels or supreme movers that enabled leaders to connect with the spirit world. The book "THE GREAT PYRAMID SPEAKS" reportedly reveals the name of this special angel and how chanting its name can grant wishes. Unusual phenomena, including globe-shaped illuminations, have been witnessed near the Great Pyramid, attributed to these guardian angels.

First to Cast Spells

This section touches upon King Nechtanebo (circa 350 B.C.) and his use of magic, including animating wax figures to fight enemies. It mentions the ancient Egyptians' understanding of casting spells for good and evil and the forbidden rite of the resurrection of Osiris, suggesting that understanding these "Mysteries" can lead to spiritual bliss.

Moses - The Most Famous Initiate

It is stated that Moses was half Hebrew and half Egyptian, instructed in "all the wisdom of the Egyptians." The book "THE GREAT PYRAMID SPEAKS" is said to reveal Moses's initiation into the Mystery Schools of the Pharaohs and his use of ceremonial magic to escape Egypt with his people.

Atlantis and the Ancient Astronauts

This part addresses the mystery of Egypt's sudden civilization blossoming around 3000 B.C., noting that Egyptians were primitive just 100 years prior. The construction of the Great Pyramid required precise calculations and geodesic knowledge, suggesting an external source of knowledge, possibly from Atlanteans or ancient astronauts.

Does a Time Capsule Exist Under the Great Pyramid?

Famed psychics have stated that important information about mankind's future and survival lies buried under the Sphinx and Great Pyramid. Edgar Cayce is cited as believing a time capsule contains historical records of Atlantis, unidentified mummies, gold artifacts, and surgical instruments, possibly even secrets of levitation and extended lifespans.

Will the Cross That Jesus Was Crucified On Be Found?

Diane Tessman, a minister who claims contact with space beings, has received information that the cross of Jesus's crucifixion is buried beneath the Great Pyramid and will be found as proof of His return. This information is described as being of particular benefit to those seeking suppressed knowledge.

The Mystery of a Space Ship Ready to Blast Off Into Outer Space Will Soon Be Revealed!

Diane Tessman also reveals that secrets of the Great Pyramid will be opened, including the discovery of a dormant spacecraft beneath it. This spacecraft is said to be capable of removing people from Earth in case of a global catastrophe. The article suggests that the Israeli and Arab governments are fighting over this doomsday craft, which could provide safety in the event of self-destruction.

St. Anthony: Super Psychic, Messenger of the Lord, or Representative of the ETs?

This article by Cynthia Cirile explores the life and miracles of St. Anthony of Padua. It begins with a personal anecdote about the author's grandparents' annual St. Anthony feast and how the saint interceded in their lives. The author questions whether St. Anthony might have been a space person from a higher civilization, given his extraordinary powers, such as being in two places at once, healing the sick, and raising the dead. The article recounts St. Anthony's choice of a monastic life, his eloquent preaching, and his ability to influence entire cities. It mentions his traditional depiction with the Christ child and a prophecy he delivered regarding the Lord of Chateauneuf's family. The author concludes by pondering whether St. Anthony's powers stemmed from God or extraterrestrial beings, acknowledging his status as a historical personage who performed inexplicable phenomena.

Angelic, God-Loving Beings... 'Cross of Crystal'

This section features Diane Tessman, an ordained minister and pastor who claims to have received help from beneficial beings from another dimension. She describes how her life improved dramatically after finding a crystal cross in her garden, which she believes was placed there by these beings. Tessman recounts her childhood experiences, including seeing a bizarre light and encountering strange beings. She believes she is part human and part extraterrestrial, with her soul possibly being a duplication of a "Special One" from another dimension. Tessman has become an accomplished psychic, forecasting major events and helping "Star children." She warns of coming catastrophic changes and a collapse of civilization, with fleets of spaceships potentially evacuating deserving souls. She offers a crystal cross, which she received through a vision, as a means to draw upon spiritual and healing powers for financial security, improved health, and other desires. The cross is not for sale but is given to those who seek comfort and awakening. Those who order her book, "THE TRANSFORMATION," will receive a free crystal cross and a free trial subscription to INNER LIGHT magazine.
