Conclusion:

So, to put it mildly, we are in a mess. What do we do about it? The first positive note is that we realise that we are in a mess. Together we must consider the right solutions. Anarchy achieves nothing for it is the product of the material way of life; it divides and rules. What we must have is unity. We must all work together but not in little groups. One group begins to get suspicious about another and then what happens? - Competition, envy; yes, all the trappings of the material way of life. We HAVE to work together spiritually. It is inevitable that each person should speak to another about all this. Be surprised if you do not get agreement, that we should all work together spiritually. If another person doesn't agree then it may be through fear. Fear is one of the prerequisites of the success of the material way of life.

Fear, envy and competition create division.

If a person needs the Bible to understand the need for spiritual harmony, then fine. But you must think beyond the Bible. Remember, the Bible was produced by man to meet his own needs. We must now be at one with ourselves AND the earth. We must recreate that unity. Personally use whatever is necessary to achieve that unity as long as your efforts are themselves in harmony with others and the Earth. The end does not justify any means. Do not use the material way of life to reach the correct end. That merely perpetuates the material way of life.

Some will take the view that it's all right for you - "I'm too busy struggling with making ends meet". Help the person; reach the person. His problems are a product of his way of life. Examine what is wrong spiritually and help.

For others this will all just go over their head. So be it. If they cannot come to terms with their future it may be that intellectually they simply cannot. Help them, for they cannot help themselves. Do not make them feel isolated, though, for that's another product of the material way of life. All the trappings of the material way of life have to be shaken off. Competition, envy, fear of not competing, isolation must all be removed. But they must be removed by working together and not by using the same means, i.e. through competition, fear, and so on.

So what do we do?

Together we sit down and work it out. Perhaps we decide to do nothing - what a joke! We know that we must work together to break out of this material straight-jacket. Those in authority may fear such an idea. But why? Is it that individually they would then have to address the situation? What do they fear - change? They have the ability to become part of it.

But what if they don't?

Then we have failed for we have created a them and us situation through fear. Fear is a fundamental part of the material way of life. We have failed because our approach had been wrong. We must start at first principles - the Spirit, then discuss openly with no preconceived solutions.

The whole is more important than the solution. If you don't have the whole, unity, harmony, then you have failed. The solution is wrong. You MUST understand this, otherwise the exercise is pointless. The solution is more basic and fundamental than most can perceive. Do not complicate; do not isolate. Unity of mind is not a threat; if it becomes one, then the approach to it has been wrong. Start from the beginning with nothing. Recognise that the spirit in harmony with the Earth is all, and then build slowly. There is plenty of time for the correct approach.

Keep things simple, as I've been saying. We create problems only to occupy our minds in the material world. Stop creating problems; let events happen as they are meant to. Become one with the world. Events only become problems if you make them such. Let events flow. Turning them into problems only keeps you in the material world. Stop fighting. The war is only on your side, spirit against material. Be at one; you've nothing to fear; we're all on the same side.

But what if everybody ignores all this? They'll reason that if you give a warning about a forthcoming catastrophe and nothing is done about it, then you will be said to be the cause. But how can that be so - just one person?

What is it that they say - if you don't like the message don't shoot the messenger? We all have the problem to face.

But will some survive this catastrophe that is talked about?

Nobody will survive if we do nothing. Why should we? We all have to face this.

But do Holy people face the same catastrophe?

Why are they any different? If the church is wrong, we only have ourselves to blame as the human race created the church. If the church is right, why are we in this mess? Nobody is right, otherwise they become role models and therefore leaders. There are no leaders. We all have to face the situation equally.

What if a person can't understand all this?

If a person has a problem with that then sit down and think about the problem. Then talk to someone else who also has the problem. Then they will understand, and the solution will be easy.

What if someone doesn't wish to face this?

Then they are frightened and need help. No-one is excluded. We all have to work for this. Nobody is right, nobody is wrong, we all have to start again.

But if the future has already happened, how can we, as individuals, have a choice about what to do in the future? Do 'right' or 'wrong', the future will happen. How can this be reconciled?

Do the 'right' thing, and 'your' future becomes clear - obvious. Do the 'wrong' thing, and the future becomes 'foggy'. In other words your future is strewn with problems if you do, repeatedly, the wrong things. If you do the right things, the future, your path, becomes clearer and it is easier to make the right choices.

Our attributes are all in us for a reason, they are not a failing. We must stop comparing ourselves. Take each as absolute, complete. We have our attributes for a reason. There are no failings. Stop comparing and things will become clearer, simpler. We are a unit, absolute. We do not have strengths or weaknesses; they are only identified through comparison which in itself is wrong. Therefore, without weaknesses or strengths we are ourselves, complete, a unit, which we must come to terms with.

But don't we compare in order to understand another person, and then perhaps ourselves?

Perhaps, but the comparison only happens because the other person has not come to terms with his or herself. Had the person come to terms with his or herself then you would have had the harmony with him or her and comparisons would have been unnecessary.

You see, it's all very simple. Comparisons are part of competition, a fundamental of the material world.

When solving any problem, don't think of the solutions. Start at the beginning with nothing, not even a blank sheet of paper. Define your problem. When you have done that, find the solution. Match the solution to the problem. If it doesn't fit, then you haven't defined the problem correctly. Don't blame the solution, that's not wrong. What is wrong is your definition of the problem. Go back to that and start again. Understand?

We are coming to a crisis, a decision point. The only way we can recognise this is in the material world. That is why the decision time is presented in this way. If it was presented in the spiritual world only some would recognise it and the others would not be convinced. The physical world is the only way. It will all become clear later.

The whole Earth system is very sensitive. It is like a hair trigger only a million times more sensitive. The trouble is that the trigger has been fired and it will take the whole of humanity to hold the hammer back from the bullet. No small sections can do this - it will take the whole of humanity.

Don't be concerned with the 'haves' and 'have-nots'. That's all in the material world. What is important is the spiritual world. We're all the same, the same abilities, the same strengths, the same weaknesses. Don't look at other groups of people or other individuals as stronger or weaker. They are not. We're ALL the same I can assure you. Those superficial differences are not important. They're all material. Even persecution of religious groups such as Catholics is irrelevant. We've talked about religion already and there are no real spiritual differences anywhere. It is these material differences, creating fear and envy, which cloud the real issues.

Those of specific faiths must stop talking just amongst themselves. They must accept their faith and talk to others who doubt their own faith or have no faith. There is much to do, no time to waste.

If democracy as we currently have it is a failure, don't ask someone else for an alternative, for it has failed because you did not become part of its process. Asking for an alternative is a further abdication of your involvement. You must find the alternative and then remain part of it.

Party politics are a function of the material world and they have no place in the spiritual world. They only address the material world. That is why politicians cannot come to terms with our deep spiritual problems. As people, rather than as politicians, they are part of the problem as we all are, and are therefore part of the solution.

The politicians must stop playing politics and agree that they do not have the answers. Yes, the 1980's took us out of a situation, a state of mind, which was wrong. But we must move on now. The politicians must stop carrying on as though they have the answers. They must admit that they do not. That is the first thing that they must do.

Then we all have to act. Stop thinking about yourself and think about everybody else. If at least two of you do that, it guarantees that someone is thinking about you. If you all do that, then you have the strength to do almost anything.

All I can do is to suggest that we sit down and decide together what is to be done. I have no other suggestions, no easy answers, we all have to decide. I cannot suggest particular areas for discussion because it is not for me to guide in this matter, merely to explain why we should all sit down together and discuss.

We live in a most complex material world and the spiritual side has been neglected. We now have to redress the balance together. There is no hurry for this - there is plenty of time, but we must start the process now.

You ask me where this is all going to lead to, but I don't know, it is up to all of us to decide, not for any one person or a single group of people. You ask if it is up to the people of one country to decide? I don't know. We must see where this takes us and then discuss further with other countries.

First, all the conflicts around the world must be stopped through working together with the object of achieving harmony.

Governments will be actively behind all this giving them credibility in such processes. The next task is to change the concept of government from authoritarian to consensus. The aforementioned creditability will automatically include the governments in this process to avoid anarchy.

We talk about the situation on the Earth and you say that you understand and yet you do nothing. You say that you will not save others who do not understand because you feel you cannot. So you have this 'passive' understanding. But understanding is not enough. You MUST act. It is like seeing a person and seeing a bullet coming towards their head. You understand the situation but you do nothing! You must shout "DUCK!" You must help.

If you sit opposite a mass-murderer and again you see a bullet coming towards his head, what do you do? Nothing? - because he is a mass-murderer? Who are you to judge? All life is the same, ALL life. You cannot judge. So it is with the current situation. Do not judge others because they do not understand. You must help them.

Stop looking after yourself and no-one else. You must look after everybody else and NOT yourself. If at least one other person does the same, you KNOW that you are being looked after and therefore you don't need to look after yourself.

Talk to people one to one if they don't understand this. Do not talk to a group as this sets you up as a leader which is wrong.

If we are all equal, are some more equal than others?

NO, we are all different. How can we be equal? It's like saying an apple is equal to a banana. What nonsense!

What people feel that they want is leadership, but that is wrong. What they need is an understanding of what life on this planet is all about and what it is for. Without that understanding, people are lost, and therefore need a guiding hand, 'leadership' as they understand it, through this maze. With an understanding, that leadership becomes unnecessary. We have all got to stop being passengers on this planet, because there is no driver.

There is so much disharmony at the moment that the spirit feels lost. Remove this disharmony and the spirit feels secure, which will allow it to move on. This applies to all, not to just some.

There seems to be great interest in astronomy now. It's as though people are looking outwards - looking for something, but what? - spaceships? Don't they realise that their bodies are earth bound; they are products of the earth and therefore cannot leave the earth. It is their spirits which can travel as in 'spirit travel' of the past. This is what they have to understand - the relationship between their body which is earthbound, and their spirit which is not. We are coming to the time when the connection between the two, body and spirit, is no longer important. The spirit has been taught the importance of respecting matter. It is time to move on.
