REC  #1    HATONN

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 10, 1990   8:00 A.M.   YEAR 3, DAY 147

 

Hatonn present.  Good morning.

 

Rather than simply tear us away from our work, I shall attempt to respond to my latest corre­spondant/correspondent (TD) and allow use of the material in the current Journal.  It is of in­terest to all who would be studying the Four “ages”, the Kali Yuga, etc.

 

Of a personal note, yes, please continue your efforts at contacting the parties mentioned in the early portion of your correspondence.  If you continue to seek, ye shall find the very ones who both cre­ated the cross-virus and the anti­dote as well.  The laboratories most involved were in the area of East Ger­many but, of course, the project was one of joint venture.

 

As you move along you will find several labels recurring: Lakhovsky, Ko­rschelt and Weber.  We­ber, of course, theorized that all particles of the ether, having an electrical charge, are cir­cling around solid objects without touching them—dare I say, not unlike the so-called “boundary layer”.  It is actually more than simple magnetic attraction and repulsion because speed (increase and decrease) has a great bearing.

 

The assumption is that solid objects are basically negative and ether particles are positive.  Well, it isn’t quite like that, ei­ther.   For instance, as one moves from an “invisible” frequency into a “visible” frequency the appearance of a “cloud” is estab­lished—this, of course, is the early stage of manifestation.  This is the form in which the craft are sighted regularly.

 

As a side point, that is the most practiced and regular maneuver attempted by “space cadets”.  It is most uncomfortable for higher dimension beings to expe­rience in your com­pression.  Al­ways remem­ber: it is not attraction which ac­tually holds everything in its place—it is compres­sion in various manners.  As we move closer to the peak of the experience of Kali Yuga, as you call it, we will be present even more for of necessity we shall have to lower our vi­bration while at­tempting to increase that of earth dwellers.  Don’t get “hung up” on these things.  I tell you, again, that all you ac­tually need is already “invented”—you are on the right track for the ones who hold the keys shall be drawn to you as they learn of your presence—unfortunately there is a lot of necessary “frog kissing” required before finding the “prince”.  Further, quite of­ten the frog does not realize he actually is a prince.  If ones turn away—allow it for there are many tenacious do-wrongers around and all must fall into com­plete har­mony—go with your nudges for much cannot come via Dharma.  She is al­ready completely bewildered by the whole experi­ence.

 

Then of course there came the effort to collect the particles, con­dense and rectify them and then comes the integration of the theory that the beam must be directed at the area of the 18 cranial nerves, etc.  Of course that is the source of a “Nornen coil” and Albert Zock has done a great deal of work in this area.

 

I cannot stress often enough—do not get hung up on all this mate­rial trial and error.  NONE OF IT WILL WORK UNLESS THE MENTAL STA­TUS IS IN HARMONY WITH THE AP­PARATUS.

This is why there is such claim to “quackery” and quite frankly, most of the equipment put forth on the public is fraudulent—simply because of the above statement.  If a person has no belief in the cure, there will be no cure.  Which, of course, gets around to an­other portion of the corre­spondence.  You are going to find it nec­essary to have more than subjective hap­penstance for the apparatus to be beneficial for the Mind is such an unfailing judge of such mat­ters.  The “mind” of a virus, however, is not so discerning.

 

TD, it is much like your initiation ribbing regarding the tempera­ture of the sun.  The sun is cool on the surface.  Why do the “big boys” perpetrate such erroneous data as to the heat of the sun?  Well, who knows?!  What you “see” must be converted into what you would call “heat”.  When one is referred to as a “space engineer”, what does that actually mean?  It should mean that you soon recog­nize you know practically nothing—only the egotistical con­tinue to “know it all”—be­ware of those ones.

 

You can, however, deduce that the sun is much like any other planet; but it is larger and it is po­sitioned so that your planets in this system revolve about it.  Thus it acts not only as a re­ceiving pole for a unified field of infrared waves (heat), electro­magnetic light, and gravita­tional radia­tion permeating all space; but it also directs this energy on to the other planets orbiting around it much like a microwave repeater site.

 

Man is not yet to fully understand the phenomena of atmospheric thermonu­clear convul­sions of such gigantic scale as appears to em­anate from the sun surface but you can be rela­tively sure that it is electricity in extravagant mo­tion but being produced at a motion creating only a rather uniform visible vi­bration producing a rather narrow visual “color” field.  This, in contrast to the multi-spec­trum “Northern Lights”, as comparison.

 

It is certainly not contrary to belief that in your instance, TD, that your meaningful contact (attention getter) would be a strange young man with UFO pictures going to Die Schweiz, speaking German.  Hold it in your heart!  But I must caution you ones—there are many claimants to alien status who are only dupesters.  Understand the contact when it comes but do not bite on everyone who appears a little different—there are thousands and thousands of im­posters from the enemy!

 

I believe the young man would have identified his lineage and con­tacts as Pleiadean?  Fur­ther, the young man coming into his contact should have been told that there is not allowed inter­ference, for the most part, with social problems and destiny of the Earth.  If an alien tells you otherwise—denounce him and demand in the name of The Creation Source to de­part from your aura and presence.  No quarrel—just go! 

 

You will find an incarnated alien of your own species to be very little different other than per­haps “freak” extra vertebra for ours is a “mental” society and we have more nerve frag­ments than does the typical birthed human as you rec­ognize him to be.  It is rarely noted for most ones are never studied in such minute manner.  It is a most complicated genetic struc­ture and mostly there is no differ­ence in physical format at all—we would be in entrance from a spe­cific “energy” acceptance.

 

Yes, there are bubble cities—many have been basically vacated for as you move along into the great upheavals, the areas of most of the cities (bases) are too active.  These are placed specifi­cally to remain in constant monitoring of the arisal of the elder conti­nents and it is a very, very active mother under your peaceful seas.

 

TD, I realize this was not a portion of inquiry in your correspon­dence—I also know that you seek confirmation and this is a major question—forgive me, friend.  Now ’tis for you to soothe my scribe for she begins to think we are all “nuts”.

One thing I must stress—you ones must not predominantly concern with mi­croscopes for that is only a “tool”.  There are ones who have located the vibra­tion frequencies necessary—you ones need to locate the frequencies and get on with the apparatus.  I will tell you now, that you have a lot of sorting to do for most of the lit­tle gadgets available are to fill greed and are totally worth­less except as a mental toy.  YOU MUST HAVE SOMETHING TO WORK IN SPITE OF BOTH THE PATIENT AND THE VIRUS.  The frequency utilized for any cancer virus is going to be in the real ball-park for Kapose’ Sar­coma is but a carci­noma.  You will further de­cline from calling it a CURE or an AIDS TREATMENT—you will call it an imitation salts bath or some­thing likewise meaningless.

 

I receive and appreciate your willingness to intercede in our be­half under pos­sible duress.  The ones who have gone forth, for the most part, know exactly what they are doing.  I have a grand story to tell of one of your summit meet­ings wherein myself, Ashtar, Kor­ton and Soltec were in attendance.  We were “taken” into custody but the police did not understand that there are sev­eral “levels” of “space cadets” and we of that mental strata are etheric and can dis­solve at will.  I might add, however, that that was the last meeting where there was physical manifesta­tions—all subsequent high level political meetings are attended in holo­graphic format.  You see, Satan forgets to tell his army some most important things.  So be it—let us have a bit of fun as we run through this journey for after all, this is experience and fullness of the experience is that to which you aspire.

 

Yes, disease first precedes in the etheric and mental bodies and only then ef­fects the physi­cal body.  Further, yes, all organs, diseases, and substances have their own individual vibra­tory rates and all can be measured.  As we have chuckled in the past, if ones simply mea­sured the fre­quency entering Dharma’s posterior left ear they would have our radio signal—but the minute they attempt to do so we tune out and it is most frustrating.  Ah yes, we shall all enjoy the friendly interchanges which are destined to be shared and at that time we shall most surely have a lot to be amused about—we as well as you.  Most of yours will be enlight­ened memory loss re­calling.  Amnesia is a most humorous thing — in retrospect.

 

Regarding the observations and verifications of your dissertation of the pres­ence of the great Masters, etc.  I believe you will find most of the information covered as you move through the Journals.  We have several Journals to un­fold and we will pick up the missing fragments.

 

The generalized consideration of the higher planes (from earth com­pression) are in progres­sion:  the earth or physical, earth-bound or low astral, interme­diate astral, highest astral (the lower of the four highest planes of experience), then the mental and/or causal, celes­tial and higher cosmic.  We always enjoy the introduction of our beloved Theoaphylos who blasts every­one with being from the seventh ray of the seventh layer of the seventh “whatever else you want”.   All of you who have returned to serve a specific purpose at this given time of transition come from the highest of the seventh realm so you are, in fact and not just in con­cept, reflec­tions of the masters in manifested format.  It also should convince you that there is no perfec­tion short of God for as you manifest in human physical you take on the memory loss, the be­ingness and experience of the human—there is no other purpose for the mani­fested ex­perience.

 

Yes, the drinking of alcoholic beverages, eating dead flesh and blood, and syn­thetic addi­tives, does lower your overall vibratory state and “if mentally ac­cepted” does cause disease.  All vi­bration is controlled and adjusted by the mental projection.  Therefore, I urge ones to under­stand most clearly—simply to say, “I shall not longer eat of meat or allow a drop of animal blood to pass my lips and I shall eat only ‘Natural’ plants, etc., etc., etc., ad nauseum—” will do not one single iota of good.  IT IS ALWAYS INTENT.  YOU ARE TWO ENTI­TIES—A PHYSICAL HOUSE WHICH MAY FEEL BETTER IF FED AND CLOTHED PROP­ERLY AND YOUR SOUL ESSENCE WHICH HAS NAUGHT TO DO WITH THE PHYSICAL, IN RE­ALITY.  Therefore, I do not stress input—except to explain how open and defenseless, for in­stance, when intoxicated by any substance, etc.  I do this because man is a strange animal, in­deed.  He hears a thing and thinks the “thing” itself is the so­lution and will change his diet but will not change his mind and nothing is accomplished.  For you who under­stand the reasons and linkage—superb; for the masses, it is intent which we must somehow al­ter.

 

I would like to refer to the Age of Four (Kali Yuga), and you will find we speak of this rather ex­tensively in the most recent Jour­nal—The Age of Kali.  I do not wish to confuse this with sects or doctrines but since you have defined the “status” as Kali Yuga then I must respond in like.

 

The ancient scriptures of Indian Hinduism also foretold the succes­sive rulers of the world, and stated that the last world rulers of the Kali Yuga would be members of the white race, whom they call “Mletchhas”.  The definition given of Mletchha is as follows:  “He is called a Mletchha, who eats the bovine (cow) flesh, speaks much that is self-contradictory and is des­titute of all good con­duct.”

 

Remember, the assumption that red meat is bad—specifically the bovine—ac­tually comes from an “Earth” man’s speculation and myth (true or false) and is immaterial.  The eating of the cow is against the teachings of orthodox Hin­duism as the cow is viewed as a sacred ani­mal rep­resenting the Mother.  The reason for this reverence, ac­cording to some historians, is that ages ago the cow’s milk was the only source of food for the people as the land had been devastated by a se­vere drought.  The cow’s milk provided the only sustenance left, and hence saved the people from starvation.  Thus, she became the sym­bol of the Earth Mother, and one does not kill one’s mother.

 

The Europeans and their offshoots, specifically the British and Americans, are eaters of the bovine or cow flesh and have indeed ruled the world up to the present day.  Regarding In­dia, the British ruled there for over 200 years and brought the custom of beef-eating with them.  They often made alliances with the ruling Maharajas of the various Indian provinces, Hindus and Moslem, thus controlling the Indian subcontinent either directly or indirectly through their sur­rogates who took up the customs, modes of dress and even language of their conquerors.

 

In fact, over 5000 years ago a prophecy was put forth by the Shri­mad Bhaga­vatam:

 

“Sudras (members of the lowest caste or class), fallen Brahmins (priests) and members of other higher castes who have given up the Vedic courses of conduct and Mletchhas will rule over the banks of the Indus and Chan­drabhga rivers, the city of Kaunti and the territory of Kashmir.  (All parts of the In­dian subcontinent that were formerly ruled by the British.)

 

“These kings. . .who will be contemporaries, will be no bet­ter than Mletch­has in their course of conduct and will be given over to unrighteousness and mendac­ity, il­liberal and furious.  They will kill women, children, cows and Brahmins (priests), covet others’ wives and wealth, experience vicissitudes of for­tune in quick suc­cession and will be poor of strength and courage and short-lived too.

 

“They will cease to perform purificatory rites, will be devoid of righteous ac­tions, and dominated by Rajas (anger) and Tamas (delusion) and, being Mletch­has in the garb of Ksatriyas (warriors), will suck the blood of their own people.  The people ruled over by them will ac­quire their habits, ways of life and mode of speech and, oppressed by one another as well as their rulers, will go to ruin.”

The fulfillment of this prophecy is easily seen today.  Wherever the British have ruled, they have left their mark, changing the customs, dress and even the language of the conquered peoples.  En­glish is now one of the two official languages of India and is the international lan­guage of the world.  Well, that is enough on the subject for the moment.

 

You must not narrow your discernment into focused perspective, for much good also came forth from the years of change and, taken from perspective, becomes erroneous conclusions.  Just as I have warned you ones, it is not nec­essarily all of the research that is wrong—but one error or lie can destroy the validity of all of the con­clusions.

 

It is more to consider the prophecies as a timing device—a time when these things would be pre­sent—not so much that man eats bovine meat—but rather that these signs would all be present and man in masses would be able to see the correlations.

 

As we move into the CRUCIFIXION OF THE PHOENIX we shall cover the similarities and doctrines for we must somehow get man to rise above his nar­row “me-ness”.  Many tra­ditions were begun of neces­sity of a given period of experience and have no meaning on soul evolution and growth.  MAN MUST LEARN THAT IT IS NOT THE “THING” THAT IS IMPOR­TANT—IT IS THE SOUL ATTITUDE REGARDING THE “THING”.

 

There is a little game we like to play with you stuck in the rut Christians, Hin­dus, Buddhists, etc., and I think I shall touch on it now.

 

I am going to write some things—actually quote and allow you ones to tell me who origi­nated them:

 

 

1.  “In the beginning the Lord of the universe alone existed.  With Him the word was the second, and the word is verily the Supreme God.”

 

and,

 

2.  “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”

 

3.  “Man exalts or lowers himself by His own acts.  Do not worry about distinc­tion of caste, sex, or nation­ality, etc., for in truth, these labels have no meaning once the body is gone.  Re­alize that His light is in All; there is no caste on the other side.”

 

4.  “If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread; if he be thirsty, give him wa­ter; so shalt thou heap coals of fire upon his head; and the Lord shall award thee; for thy enemy will feel ashamed of his hostile feeling, and his head, his face, will ‘burn’ with shame, and he will give up enmity and become thy friend, and that will be thy great reward.”

 

5.  “Love is a rare herb that makes a friend even out of a sworn en­emy and this herb grows out of nonvio­lence.”

 

6.  “It is an absolute mercy and a complete bounty, the illu­mination of the world, fellowship and harmony, love and union; nay, rather, mercifulness and oneness, the elimination of dis­cord and the unity of whosoever are on earth in the utmost of freedom and dignity.  The Blessed Beauty said: ‘All are the fruits of one tree and the leaves of one branch’. . .They must purify their sight. . . and must always be thinking of doing good to someone, of love, considera­tion, affec­tion and assistance to somebody.  They must see no enemy and count no one as an ill wisher.  They must consider everyone on the earth as a friend; re­gard the stranger as an intimate, and the alien as a compan­ion . . .These are the com­mands of the Blessed Beauty, these are the counsels of the Greatest Name. . .The herald of peace, reformation, love and rec­onciliation is the Religion of the Blessed Beauty. . .”

 

7.  “They who actually love even those that do not love them in re­turn are compassionate and loving too like one’s parents.  There is blameless virtue as well as goodwill operating there!”

 

8  “To the good I would be good.  To the not-good I would also be good in or­der to make them good.  Recom­pense injury with kindness. . .Of all noble quali­ties, loving compassion is the noblest.”

 

9.  “Conquer yourself, not others, Discipline your­self, learn re­straint. . .Do as you would want done to you. . .No malice, no injury disciplined eating and be­having, high thinking and simple living—this is the teaching of the enlight­ened ones. . .Let a man overcome evil by good; let him overcome the greedy by gen­erosity, and a liar by the truth. . .There is only one eternal: Hate never destroys hate; only love does. . .Let us live happily, hating none though others hate.  Let us live without hate among those who hate. . .Let us live dis­easeless among the dis­eased. . .Let us live without grief among those who grieve.”

 

10.  “What is hateful to thee, do not unto thy fel­lowman; this the whole Law.  The rest is but commentary.”

 

11.  “Do not to others as you would not like done to yourself. . .Recompense injury with justice, and return good for good.”

 

12.  “That which is good for all and anyone, for whomsoever—that is good for me. . .What I hold good for self, I should for all.  Only Law Universal is true law.”

 

13.  “Do not to others what ye do not wish done to yourself: and wish for oth­ers too what ye desire and long for, for yourself.  This is the whole of righteous­ness, heed it well. . . With kindness conquer rage; with good­ness mal­ice; with generosity defeat all meanness; with the straight truth defeat lies and deceit.”

 

14.  “Since you have been chosen by God who has given you this new kind of life, and because of His deep love and concern for you, you should prac­tice ten­der hearted mercy and kindness to others.  Don’t worry about making a good im­pression on them but be ready to suffer quietly and patiently.  Be gen­tle and ready to forgive, never hold grudges.  Remember, the Lord for­gave you, so you must forgive others.  And above all these put on life, which binds everything to­gether in perfect har­mony.”

 

15.  “Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you.  To him who strikes you on one cheek, offer the other also; and from him who takes away your cloak do not withhold your coat as well.  Give to everyone who begs from you; and of him who takes away your goods do not ask them again.  And as you wish that men would do to you, do so to them. ..and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High; for He is kind to the un­grateful and the selfish.  Be mer­ciful, even as your Fa­ther is merciful.

 

“Judge not, and you will not be judged: condemn not, and you will not be con­demned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you. . .For the measure you give will be the measure you get back. . .first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother’s eye.”

 

16.  “You cannot act as a physician unless you can first re­move your own dis­ease (which is the sickness of the soul—the ego)—the pain that disturbs your peace.  Then you may treat others and call yourself a physician.”

 

This is not some sort of examination to see who is paying atten­tion—it is proof that you can­not tell one truth from another if it be truth.  I play not word games with you—mankind must come into the understanding that in the Word of truth there is no dif­ference and killing of your brother to prove your way to be better than his is wrong no matter how many “democratic votes” you hold.

* * * * *

 

 

Now let us move on to TD’s outline of the substances, potencies, etc., based on multiples of seven.  For a given thesis to become a “law” there must be no variance—the one thing you can count on in a “science” as old and yet as newly discovered (rediscovered) is a seeming lack of conformity.  Be most cautious that you do not get so involved in counting of your fin­gers that you miss the one which is unseen.

 

Further, not to divulge labels, you refer to an instance regarding one who em­bodied on Novem­ber 5, 1942.  I have no particular comment regarding this energy except to be most cautious.

 

THERE IS NEVER a total removal of any records from the Akashic Records—there would be no point in the Akashic Records if through any route whatso­ever, records would be re­moved.  It is identical to making a family tree and deleting the ones you don’t want entered or adding a few to make it look good.  THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO CRED­IBILITY TO ANY ENERGY WHO SAYS HIS RECORD HAS BEEN REMOVED.  THE AKASHIC RECORDS ARE RECORDS OF ALL THE UNIVERSAL EXISTENCE—TO RE­MOVE A PORTION HERE AND THERE AND LEAVE “EMPTY DRAWERS” IS A CON­TRADICTION IN DEFINI­TION.  BE MOST CAU­TIOUS INDEED AND HOLD VERY CLOSE TO YOUR CON­SCIOUSNESS THAT WHICH I TOLD YOU REGARDING ORION.  I AM NOT HERE TO DISPUTE SUCH PER­SONS FOR I WOULD NEED GO INTO THE RECORDS MYSELF—AT WHICH POINT, IN YOUR SCENARIO, I WOULD FIND NAUGHT.  I SHALL HAVE TO LEAVE IT AT THAT AND REQUEST THAT YOU USE WISDOM AND DISCERNMENT.

In reference to the discussion regarding contacts in Flagstaff and Old Delhi—many such inci­dents have occurred and many of them will yet come into your attention.  Your statement, “I be­lieve that you cousins of ours from Atlantis are alsobeing tapped on the shoulder about higher laws.”  YES, YES INDEED.  YOU HAVE A SKY FULL OF FOURTH DIMENSIONAL BE­INGS WHO HAPPEN TO BE ABLE TO TRAVERSE THE HEAVENS WITHOUT THE LIMITS OF “TIME” AND “SPACE”.  THEY ARE ALL IN THE SAME SER­VICE BUT AT ALL VARYING DEGREES OF INSIGHT AND PURPOSE—MUCH AS YOU ONES.  FURTHER, THEY HAVE BEEN AWAY FROM THEIR HOME BASES FOR A VERY LONG TIME AND THEY ARE LONELY, SOMETIMES BORED AND ARE FAR FROM PERFECTION—THERE IS HEAVY DISCIPLINE AND A LOT OF REMINDING.  FUR­THER, MANY ONES WHO HAVE MOVED INTO SERVICE ON YOUR SURFACE HAVE BEEN TOTALLY LOST TO THE “CAUSE”.  IT IS FAR TOO EX­TENSIVE A SUBJECT TO ENTER INTO AT THE POINT OF WRITING FOR MY SCRIBE IS WEARY.

 

Ones who have been participants on earth base itself, are not only often dis­tracted but some­times, in fact, become a real problem of negative input and disillusion.  This is a very awkward and unfor­tunate situation indeed and it is exactly why I caution you ones to pay at­tention.

 

For the ages of time past there have existed the bases — very of­ten housing the energy forms of Lemuria and Atlantis, etc.  Along with this group there are the group of “visitors”  i.e., the An­des and closer, Mt. Shasta.  These bases have high turn-over rates.  We try to allow no “alien” a longer physical stay than six months.  Past six months the memories are impacted and earth den­sity takes a very heavy toll.  For this very reason, most ones incarnate are birthed onto your sphere.  Purpose is longer at realization but the impact of “living” is less­ened tremendously.  Oh yes, there is a constant “tapping on the shoulder regarding higher laws”.  However, the discipline is stout indeed for breaking of the Higher Laws—stout in­deed.

 

I believe that I should close this correspondence.  I trust that you ones who edit for the Jour­nals can find placement of this mate­rial.  We must have a bet­ter method of getting this infor­mation unto the seeking groups for sometimes the subject matters do not apply to the immedi­ate Jour­nal under penning.

 

I have about worn out my welcome at this instrument this morning so I shall withdraw and al­low respite.

 

Thank you for your continued support and discourse.  We shall have won­drous community in the days ahead.  Walk gently friends, and al­low in all in­stances for the lessons are great through observation, thought and acceptance.  Fighting a thing only causes the thing to rebel.  So be it and good day.

 

HATONN TO STAND-BY.

                                    CLEARING FREQUENCIES.

                                                                        THANK YOU, CHELA.
