“Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth". 

                                                  Jesus Christ Matthew 5:5

Humanity has been fooled big time. Simply put, we have had a cabal of psychopaths pushing psychological operations designed to distort our knowledge base and shape our worldview. And, our politicians have been of no help; they do not care that science, medicine and education have been taken over by corporate interests. Our leaders have been corrupted and are beholden to this unelected power elite.

The goal of these evil ones is to prevent Homo sapiens from evolving into a rational, loving species. They want us confused and fearful so that we remain a slave class and do their bidding. And, this assertion that Homo sapiens has been a slave species is not an exaggeration. 

Ancient accounts tell us that an alteration of Homo sapiens' genes was done on purpose early on in our species’ history.  Apparently a more advanced "alien" race did so in order to address their need for cheap labor. But what gives these antediluvian narratives credence is the genetic evidence now surfacing. 

These days it is difficult to know what to believe. But despite what this cabal of parasites has done to mess with the evolutionary trajectory of humanity, here we are now. Humankind is a species awakening to the facts about our organic predicament; we have a formidable enemy in our midst that is not human.

The question remains as to how we are going to deal with this infestation. Right now, I see a lot of finger-pointing going on. Some claim our trouble began with the hippie movement and others attribute it to the feminists. Then, there are those who put the blame on the church’s milk-toast approach to sin. I am not sure how these accusations toward one another are going to help us gain freedom from the parasite class ruling over all of us.

The fact is many of our good ideas have been usurped and put through what Dr. Andrew Lobaczewski calls a ponerological process. This occurs when psychopaths usurp an ideological banner and then subject it to a degradation that in no way resembles the original belief. For example, the original ideology of feminism has nothing to do with the pussy hat brigade. Nor does the authentic message of Jesus the Christ have anything to do with the rainbow agenda endorsed in many churches these days. So, it is best to quit with the finger-pointing and work on the solution.

At this juncture in evolution our species’ task is to coalesce around a core of conscience. We cannot afford to squabble about religion, politics and other ideologies which have been subject to ponerological processes. The psychopaths are rolling out their plans for humanity’s demise while we continue fussing and fighting with one another.

But many humans are baffled about the best use of their free will. We like to think of our behavior as something driven by factors outside the domain of our personal responsibility. For the most part we lack a conscious awareness of our own psychic processes. We are inclined to believe that our own emotional roller-coaster ride is indicative of real events.

We often allow our egocentric delusion to culminate in self-imposed misery and much suffering for others.  As we peer out from our animal eyes, we do not realize that the remnants of our bestial origins lie incorporated deep within the structures of our human psyche. We do not recognize how our fluctuating brain chemistry deceives us.

We are not yet the evolved and logical creatures that we fancy ourselves to be. And, rather than face the truth about our humble position, we like to covet illusions about our own virtue and perfection. So much so that some even believe the New Age claims that portray humans as God. Some even believe that what they think is what God is thinking. 

It is true that The All-Encompassing Entity who powers our cosmos is the very ground of our being. And, for some who have emancipated themselves from the mental slavery brought on by egocentricity, they actually can make contact with the Creator of our universe. But the human is not and never will be the Almighty. Jesus knew that and even said so: "There is only One who is good”. Matthew 19:17

Humankind is a dimension of the emergent universe. And, right now humanity, because of the threat from psychopaths, is experiencing evolutionary pressures.  Adaptation to the current state of the universe requires actual transformations in our species' consciousness.  If humanity is to unite around the core of conscience, each one of us is responsible to become more conscious of the impact of our own behaviors.

This means we must be willing to search out the truth about our own thoughts and actions to determine if, in fact, we are operating in accordance with what is required of us. We must be willing to use our minds to tune into that voice of the inner conscience. In a very real sense, we are being compelled to ascend the evolutionary ladder or watch the extinction of our species.

The continuation of humankind literally depends on our ability to form a united front. But harmonious human relations are not going to magically appear. First we must learn to think differently about our existential predicament. Each one of us has to come face to face with our bestial origins and human nature – from somewhat of a transcendent perspective – as we try to figure out what to do with ourselves. 

To consider our organic predicament in light of this understanding is to gain a deeper appreciation for why Jesus proclaimed: “Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth".

THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER

Now available in an audio-visual format on YouTube  Bit Chute Rumble

“If you love me, you will obey what I command. And, I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Counselor to be with you forever –the Spirit of truth ……" 

                                                                                                          John 14:15 -17

Years ago, I came across a book entitled The Tangled Wing by Melvin Konner. I was struck by his description of how adaptation plays out in a species. Konner mentions a type of bird that relied mainly on a certain color of berry for its survival. If my recall is correct, the berry was the color red. Consequently, individual birds in that species were born with cones and rods in their eyes that easily picked out red in the landscape.

Over time when the red berries were no longer an available food source, the survival of that bird species required a change in behavior. Then, as if by magic, a unique bird was born into the flock. This bird was endowed with the capacity to readily pick out the color blue. The ability to do so enabled the bird to access a different food source, blue-colored berries. Eventually the rest of the flock caught on and mimicked the unique bird.

Even more amazing is that over time the visual apparatus of this species underwent a transformation. Birds were being born with eyes built to hunt out the color blue. By copying the behaviors of the unique bird, they eventually altered the genetic make-up of their species.

Is it not reasonable to assume that a similar rescue mission could occur in the human species? After all, humans do exist in the same organic predicament as the birds. What if, just like our feathered friends, a unique individual magically appeared in our species? And, if the Creator Almighty did elect to descend into a person in order to alter the trajectory of human history, what would that look like?

“The father is living in me, doing his work through me” Jesus proclaimed. Just like the Old Testament prophets who went before him Jesus knew his mission was to confront the moral decay threatening his people. He was aware of the evil ones and their synagogue of Satan. In the Book of Thomas the Contender we see Jesus calling out the malevolent for their lack of conscience and he goes so far as to say they are not human.

Although it has taken two thousand years, finally the time has arrived that Jesus and the prophets were fretting about. Humanity now faces the catastrophic level of corruption anticipated long ago. Psychopaths who are not human by virtue of their genetics have been allowed to seize critical positions of control.

These nasty parasites use their positions of power and influence to generate opportunities to harm humans. They have nothing but contempt for us. They work to extract our money and other resources. Some of these lunatics have even gone so far as to cook up designs to replace the human with artificial intelligence. Dr. Lobaczewski in his book Political Ponerolgy classifies them as an intra-species enemy.

The Old Testament prophets had their ways of dealing with this problem. But, the days of roaming the land looking to slay the descendants of Nephilim are long gone. We need to create societies in which the psychopaths can never have a foothold again. And for that, we need a transformation in human consciousness.

Jesus beckons us to investigate the “kingdom within.” He wants us to think about what is going on in our hearts. Do our own thoughts and behaviors really measure up to the moral standards best suited for human interdependency? Do we even recognize the impact our bestial self-centeredness has on us?

“For the body is a domestic animal, Therefore, you must go about perfecting yourself” warns Jesus. We must learn to side-step those psychological defenses which spring from our animal nature if we are to resist the urge to justify our most unwholesome behaviors. This kind of self-righteousness merely prevents us from seeing what to improve upon.

If we acknowledge the egocentricity that distorts our thinking, we can avoid being driven by a mere animal self-interest. An actual metamorphosis of our own psyche can occur when we are open to the truth about our own attitudes and actions. By evaluating the extent to which we deviate from the extraordinary humility and love Jesus modeled for us, we can facilitate the emergence of a strong conscience. It is with truth as our counselor and reformer that we get to ascend the evolutionary ladder.

In a very real sense, we must be willing to use our minds to tune into that voice of the inner conscience. Healthy human relations depend on it. After all, conscience is what separates humans from psychopaths. And, if the truth be known, conscience not only helps us to address the reality of human interdependency. Conscience is the key to a relationship with the Almighty Creator residing within us; something a psychopath will never have access to.

Like Konner’s unique bird, we can see that Jesus the Christ is operating in an incredible capacity as evolutionary catalyst, but for our species. He wants us to experience a psychological liberation that begins our ascent from the animal to a spiritual mode of existence. In doing so, not only do we further distinguish our species from the psychopaths among us but we actually alter the genetic make-up of our own species.

Early in this new millennium Homo sapiens sapiens has reached a crossroad. We cannot allow our beautiful species to be snuffed out by psychopathic parasites. In some circles there is a belief that Jesus will reappear in the human arena to save us. However, this son of God clearly told us that he would ask The Father to send us a new counselor who would stay with us forever. He has – the Spirit of Truth. Are you listening?

A Cosmic Harvest: The Bifurcation of Our Species

Now in video format on Bit Chute or Rumble

“Just as weeds are gathered and burned with fire, so it will be at end of the age.” 

                                                                                     Jesus Christ Matthew 13:40

Unbeknownst to many, we have had an intra-species enemy interfering in the affairs of humans for millennia. Psychopaths look human but are not by virtue of different genetics. Their predatory nature compels them to seek out positions of power so that they can corrupt and destroy our world.  Consequently, we can no longer overlook this blight on humanity. They must be dealt with once and for all.

But do not count on any savior to rearrange humanity’s relationship to these creatures. That will be up to us. We will have to figure out what to do with ourselves so that we finally win this battle for humanity’s freedom.

Fortunately, there is a considerable number of people who can help with the cause. They have an adequately developed consciousness and cannot be manipulated. They will not succumb to the many psychological operations performed on the public to keep the masses in line. They have their critical faculties intact.

However, there exists a substantial group whose egotism makes for a less rational mind. These are the ones the psychopaths count on to do their bidding. They are easily weaponized because their pathological sense of self-importance has them dreaming up ways to gain power over others. We saw this in Nazi Germany when some had no qualms about reporting their neighbors to the authorities, even when it meant death for them.

It has been shocking to see what has been playing out during the past 2.5 years. How easy it is to polarize society by manipulating those who are self-absorbed. The powers that be, after stroking egos, merely must pump out messages of fear across the media platforms they control. And voila, we have the vaccinated pitted against the purebloods.

Unfortunately, it is going to take a major shakeup to bring the brainwashed to their senses. And that is exactly what is in the making now as the death toll of vaccine recipients rises daily. Those who have been duped are about to realize it. 

The astute among us have been watching this mass formation psychosis play out. We know we are in a war but of a different kind. The enemy's main weapon is our ignorance about the predator psychopaths among us. The public needs to understand how they weaponize confused humans with slick propaganda and other psychological tactics.  

The current deluge of corruption and destruction has brought Homo sapiens sapiens to an evolutionary juncture. This battle with psychopaths, and their human lackeys, is a catalyst for transformation; our species' defense requires a different level of human consciousness. No longer can we allow our egocentricity to skew our perceptions about the organic predicament in which we find ourselves. 

The threat to our species' survival demands an actual expansion of perception in the human primate. I am talking neuroplasticity here not merely eyesight. But the question remains as to how many more of us can acquire the humility necessary to make this evolutionary leap. Jesus predicted that a harvest time for our species would come, in which the wheat will be separated from the weeds. It certainly looks like that time is now.

Faithfully yours,

Sheila Banks

A Fighting Chance

Can now be seen as audio-visual presentation here 

"For the body is a domestic animal. Therefore you must go about perfecting yourself"

                                                              Jesus as quoted in The Book of Thomas The Contender 

Twenty-five years ago, I was abruptly thrown on the spiritual path via a mystical union. And, back then information about what I was going through was much more difficult to obtain. Today we have all kinds of information on deep spiritual truths meant to enlighten human consciousness. And, we certainly need it.

However, this focus on obtaining enlightenment must not be allowed to crowd out the message of Jesus the Christ. His message is meant specially for this era. If we do not pay heed our species is likely to perish in the sands of time. And, this is exactly what the cabal of psychopaths running the show want, now that the robots have arrived. To them we are merely a dispensable class of worker primates. 

So, it makes me wonder if the frontal assault we have been witnessing on Christianity has been done on purpose. I see that as a distinct possibility now that I know about information warfare. I remember a few years ago "experts" rolled out claims about a lack of physical evidence to support the existence of an actual person named Jesus. Was that meant to get us off the scent so to speak, to dissuade seekers from looking deeper into the Christian message?

The problem with a denial of an historical Jesus is that it just doesn't fit the facts. All major religions and most minor sects have been founded by mesmerizing figures. Moses, Guru Nanek, Buddha and Mohammed, who after having a mystical union, went on to establish influential religions. So, why would Christianity be different and not originate from a charismatic leader?

And, then we were told if Jesus did exist, Christianity is really no big deal. Christ is merely on par with other spiritual masters and sages because they all proclaim some form of the golden rule. We are to believe that Christianity has nothing special to offer humanity; and that the Christ is merely about spreading the church of nice. I think not.

The true power of Christ's message can be found in Thomas's writings. And, this may be why the authenticity and relevance of these documents were quick to be dismissed by the authorities of the day. Thomas had captured in his sayings a Jesus who was threatening to bring about a new world order by promoting the transformation of human consciousness.

To establish this new world, one without evil and war, the human primate is called to self-regulate. That means we have to discover how to access and then negotiate the workings of our inner kingdom. We have to deal with the egocentricity that drives our own subjective frame of reference and ensuing maladaptive behavior. Consequently, Jesus wants an actual shift in the way that we humans think about our existential predicament.

Jesus wants us to recognize that we are creatures in need of an ethical discipline. Our current ways are not sufficient. If a new world is to come about, it will be based on our efforts to become loving and peaceful primates. And, to reach our full potential as human beings, we need to learn how to behave according to those moral standards that are best for complex human societies.

This ascent of humankind is based on more and more of us learning how to convert a mere animal consciousness into self-awareness. Self-introspection gives birth to conscience in the human; and, that is something the powers-that-be do not want to see.

The cabal running the world has a vested interest in squelching human evolution. They have done what they can to stamp out Homo sapiens' capacity for conscience. They do not want us armed with a moral compass. After all, they want to continue to capitalize on the emotional aspects of our mammalian nature so that we willingly participate in their destructive schemes.

Jesus knew that the transformation of our consciousness is the ultimate weapon against the evil in the world. Humans with a conscience cannot be manipulated into following psychopathic narratives. Self-mastery prepares these souls to carry out the activism needed in the external world. These spiritual warriors are willing to do battle with the psychopaths among us; all in an effort to give the unconscious in our species a fighting chance to see the light.

THY KINGDOM COME

Can now be seen in video format here 

Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil …

                                                      Isaiah 5: 20

By now it should be apparent to most; humanity is at war. Although the enemy looks like us, they are not human; they are psychopaths. We actually have an intra-species enemy in our midst.

Psychopaths have different genetics and functional MRI results when compared to regular humans. They are a predatory animal without a conscience. And, they have been hiding behind a curtain of secrecy for at least 6 millennia. The prophets of the Old Testament worked to expose them.

The influence these creatures have had on the trajectory of human evolution cannot be understated. They are parasites who have managed to infest our power structures and are operating today as the ruling class. And, to carry out their parasitical predation this cabal of psychopaths tries to regulate our every move and tax us into poverty. They not only want to control our bodies but they want to corrupt our minds too.

This intra-species enemy has an invested interest in impairing the human’s ability to choose right from wrong. As rulers they promote messages of hate so that we keep fighting and killing one another. Their aim is to ensnare us in their evil web of lies and destruction. They do not want us thinking clearly about how to achieve healthy relationships.

These psychopaths need humanity to be in continual confusion and chaos for fear that we wake up to the very real threat that they pose to our species. And, in order to promote their madness this ruling class has taken control of the mass media. By regulating the messages humanity receives, these psychopaths get to broadcast their twisted interpretations to the masses.

By leading us to believe the opposite of what is true, our ability to get in touch with reality gets impaired. The result of filling our minds with twisted meanings is faulty reasoning and inaccurate judgement. And, we cannot expect our intuition to remain in tact either while operating under the spell of this converse thinking.

There are consequences to being out of touch with reality; it threatens a creature’s ability to negotiate the demands of living. And, in the case of Homo sapiens this vulnerability also affects our species’ ability to make contact with the Almighty Creator.

A human primate is situated in a milieu of complex interdependency. In the quest for adaptation, he must learn how to successfully negotiate this set of circumstances. For this reason, the human needs to become aware of the emotional features of his personality. He needs to gain insight into how his bestial nature interferes with his ability to address the task at hand.

Because our species has been granted freewill, we can be introspective. By choosing to monitor our own subjective frame of reference, we can learn to manage all sorts of useless moods and selfish impulses that distort our thinking. Freewill then, allows us to downplay our self-centered viewpoint so that we can behave in a more principled fashion. And, by learning to address the demands of our interconnectedness in this manner, we get to activate our capacity for conscience.

This flowering of conscience not only equips the individual to choose between right from wrong. It is a sign that the human has actually changed the way his cerebral cortex fires. An egocentric view has been replaced with a more expansive mind set in which fear and never-ending desire no longer plague his thinking.

Each human primate experiences this burgeoning of conscience differently. However, along the journey to becoming a human being one must give birth to a conscience. The human’s self-preservation reflex must be replaced with a deeper appreciation for the organic predicament in which he finds himself. It is as Jesus Christ pointed out: "No one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again".

Let’s be clear. The development of conscience is about provoking actual changes in the way the brain perceives reality. This inner transformation puts the ego in its proper place; and, that is crucial if one is to experience the grandeur of The Almighty Creator who dwells within all. Humility then, is the prerequisite for gaining insight into what Jesus knew when he claimed: “The kingdom is inside of you. And it is outside of you.”

It is as we are told in the first book in the Bible. Man has been “created in the image and likeness of God”. Nowadays this perennial message of the mystics has been translated to make it palatable for modern man. Reassuringly we are told that humans are “spiritual beings having a human experience”. The part conveniently left out is the fact that your pet is also spirit having a cat experience. By leading us to believe our species enjoys an elevated status in the universe, we never have to come face to face with the stark reality and terror of our human existence. 

Do not be fooled. Communion with the One and Only Almighty Creator does not come about without a humbling of the ego. There is little hope we will get the spiritual connection we desire as long as we avoid the inner work required of us. That is why Jesus warned “For the body is a domestic animal. Therefore, you must go about perfecting yourself.”

It is no wonder that we are bombarded with self-aggrandizing notions about the nature of man. Without humility our species cannot make the transformations of consciousness needed to effectively deal with the psychopaths among us. If we are to keep the evil ones at bay, we must be motivated to build a moral fortress based on our human capacity for conscience. 

At this juncture in evolution then, if our species is to persist and flourish, we will need a widespread blossoming of human conscience. We have to replace the divisiveness that our psychopathic rulers have inculcated between us. Humankind must achieve harmony; a unity centered around the core of conscience.  

  

Some have conceptualized this evolutionary event in man as an ascent into the fifth dimension. Perhaps this is another feeble attempt to capitalize on esoteric knowledge. Many mystics do describe their meeting with God as "the soul rising" out of the body to meet the Almighty in the cosmos. 

Or, is it another attempt by the evil ones to promote self-aggrandizement?  We now know how they cast their spells upon us with the contortion of language and the twisting of meanings. They really do have an invested interest in keeping us confused. They want us perplexed about the transformations of consciousness needed by each one of us if we are to tame the beast within, down here on Earth.

Faithfully yours,

Sheila Banks

Exodus: The Evolution of God’s People

This post has been translated into an audio-visual format 

See it here  

And, the Lord said,  My spirit will not always strive

 with man, for that he also is flesh.

                                          Genesis 6:3

Dr. Andrew Lobaczewski, the author of Political Ponerology knew it. And, likely Moses in the Bible did too. Our species must unite around a core of conscience if we are to keep the psychopaths at bay. It is not enough to deliver the people from slavery. Setting the captives free from the Pharaoh’s grip or the New World Order’s totalitarianism is not an adequate defense against a predatory intra-species that looks human.

Who knows what Moses understood about the activation of conscience in the masses? But clearly, he wanted a harmony amongst his people centered around God’s commandments. And, in fact their unity around this code of ethics did serve as somewhat of a fortress against evil tyrants.

Today humanity faces a circumstance similar to the one in this Old Testament's Exodus story. Although not as blatant, the bondage thrust upon our species early on in our evolution continues. Now, the ruling classes exercise their parasitical predation by regulating our every move and taxing us into poverty.

Nevertheless, the human species has reached the end of an evolutionary epoch. The divine right of kings and the elitism of their puppet politicians are no longer acceptable to the masses. We cannot allow a cabal of psychopaths to continue to steer the trajectory of human history; or else, Homo sapiens sapiens goes extinct.

Comparable to the days of Moses, humanity truly is facing an intra-species enemy wanting to control our bodies and our minds. However, to keep us enslaved, these wolves in sheep's clothing need us confused about our conscience. So, for decades the West has been barraged with messages meant to baffle us about the meaning of our existence. 

Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens and others did their best to sway public opinion in favor of atheism. And, as if these “horsemen of the Apocalypse” weren’t enough, another form of nihilism was advanced via the New Age movement. According to the prophets of this modern manufactured religion, all is an illusion.  

These gurus of the New Age discovered that material forms do not exist at the quantum level. So, they then went on to conclude that nothing really matters other than the self, manifesting what it desires. It is no wonder some estimates claim the amount of narcissism in the general population to be about 50%.

Are we not denying our responsibility to something greater than the self by ignoring the existential quality of the self? How do we deal with our responsibility for the way we treat others if our personality is merely a fabrication? By overlooking the fact that we are corporal beings, are we not handicapping our capacity for conscience?

Conscience is an internal mechanism that helps humans to discern what to do in their social environment. Shaped by our experiences and knowledge, conscience tells us what is right or wrong in our own conduct or motives. An alert conscience changes the way we see the world.

Conscience facilitates introspection which helps us to replace our egocentric mind set with a more expansive view. We get a deeper appreciation for the interrelatedness all about. With the development of our conscience, we get closer to discovering the ultimate meaning for our life.

The Bible tells us that humans have been created in the likeness and image of the Creator. Unlike the psychopaths among us we have the neurological apparatus which allows for the flowering of conscience. Our species has freewill because we have been equipped to choose between right from wrong. 

We can choose to follow an ethical discipline that speaks to our status as co-creators of the human race. Or, because of selfish reasons, we can make the choice to become ensnared in the evil web of lies and destruction orchestrated by an intra-species enemy. What we decide to do as a collective will determine the fate of our species.

Right now The Almighty Creator is compelling Homo sapiens sapiens to ascend the evolutionary ladder. Like Adam and Eve in the Genesis story, our species is being obliged to consume fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. If ever there was a time for humankind to recognize this truth about our organic predicament, that time is now.

Faithfully yours,

Natty Dread Rise Again (Ver. 2)

CAN NOW BE SEEN IN VIDEO FORMAT

Oh, children, Zion train is comin' our way, get on board now!

They said the Zion train is comin' our way

You got a ticket, so thank the Lord! 

                                                                            Bob Marley and the Wailers

I was one of the lucky ones who got to attend Bob Marley's 70th birthday bash in Negril, Jamaica. While on that beautiful isle I did my pilgrimage to Bob's gravesite and toured the museum that honors his legacy. 

And, most incredible was my experience in Kingston when I presented to a group of Rastafarians. I shared my discovery that confirmed the Rasta’s belief about their king of kings, Emperor Haile Selassie. 

The first Rasta, Leonard Howell was inspired by a premonition that Marcus Garvey had had. Garvey, a Jamaican political activist, journalist and entrepreneur, believed that the Black world would eventually be graced with their own Black monarch much like the Europeans having Caucasian monarchs. Taking Garvey’s hunch seriously Howell scanned the world stage to see who qualified for this position of royalty. 

While studying the Bible Howell got his answer. He came across passages that convinced him Haile Selassie, the up-and-coming emperor of Ethiopia, was the anticipated monarch for the Black world. It is understandable how Howell could see this last emperor from the line of King Solomon as Garvey's forecasted black king. After all Ras Tafari was a monarch in Ethiopia. 

But eventually, what Howell saw in the Emperor went much deeper than merely an earthly king. It is believed that Howell’s exposure to Hindu theology is what elicited his insight into the role Emperor Selassie would play in human affairs. It was the knowledge Howell gained while working with indentured East Indians that inspired him to crown Ras Tafari with the title of king of kings. 

Hindus, just like Christians are trinitarians. That means both religions have explanations as to how the living God surfaces in a man. Both traditions recognize that Christ-consciousness in a human is the means by which the Almighty Creator impacts on the evolutionary trajectory of our species. Jesus knew about this working of the Creator through man. We have the proof in John 14:10 “It is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work.” He proclaims. 

Unlike Christians though, the Hindu believes that the Almighty’s evolutionary impulse moving through a human did not begin or stop at Jesus. If the truth be known Jesus did not think so either. In John 14:12 he says: "I assure you that whoever believes in me will do the works that I do. They will do even greater works than these because I am going to the Father.” 

This recognition that the living God was continuing to work in the affairs of man likely helped Howell to see Ras Tafari in this light. Howell believed that like Jesus, Selassie was prophesied about in the Bible. Some of his proof was found in Revelation 5:5 which reads: See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.” 

Haile Selassie did in fact come from the line of King Solomon. So, in Howell’s estimation that proved that Ras Tafari was in deed that Root of David prophesied about. But the scripture spoke of another qualifier: this Lion from the tribe of Judah had broken seven seals. Howell, informed by Hindu theology, would have known that meant this person with Davidic lineage would be graced with Christ-Consciousness. 

Even when the world knew nothing of Selassie's theology Howell was willing to declare Ras Tafari king of kings. Based on his interpretation of the end times prophecy in the Bible, he was willing to take the bold step of equating the status of the Emperor to that of Jesus Christ. In effect he was saying that, as prophesied, Christ-consciousness has returned but in the form of the Emperor. 

Jesus knew other enlightened beings from the line of King David would supersede him. After all His rare insights about our responsibility for human evolution was destined to take root in the human species. But the baffling part is how Howell was able to spot Haile Selassie as the Christ to usher in the End Times dispensation long before that Emperor made a splash on the world stage. 

The Emperor was not merely a transmitter for ancient wisdom handed down to him through his Judeo-Christian lineage. His speeches to the League of Nations and the United Nations spoke to something else. On Oct. 6, 1963 Haile Selassie tried to enlighten world leaders at the United Nations with these words: 

"We must become something we have never been and for which our education and experience and environment have ill-prepared us. We must become bigger than we have been: more courageous, greater in spirit, larger in outlook. We must become members of a new race, overcoming petty prejudice, owing our ultimate allegiance not to nations but to our fellow men within the human community". 

If not for this statement and others like it to the global community one might be tempted to ignore Howell’s fantastic claims about Selassie’s divinity. But clearly, this message bears a resemblance to what Jesus Christ wanted us to know about our responsibility for human evolution: “For the body is a domestic animal. Therefore, you must go about perfecting yourself” Jesus told Thomas, one of his disciples. 

When global leaders were scrambling to see what booty they could loot from the Third World, Selassie like Jesus, dared to remind them of their role in the big picture of human evolution. And interestingly enough, a similar message about the ascent of humankind was shown to me during a mystical union in 1997. 

I have come to realize that humanity has reached the end of an epoch. Just as prophesied in the Book of Revelation, our species’ survival is on the line because of an intra-species in our midst. We have had a ruling system with its roots in ancient Babylon. And, to this day our planet is run by an elite class full of psychopaths and their dimwitted followers. 

The Rastafarians’ focus on the evil in the world is justified. Psychopaths are not human and do not have humanity’s best interests at heart. As I demonstrated in another blogpost/video, Jesus knew about these hominids without a conscience. Their predatory nature causes them to be destructive and to spawn all kinds of evil. Their deviant genetics and functional MRI results make it so. 

Thought by some to be demon-possessed, these creatures have enticed humanity to accept levels of corruption that will result in our species demise if we do not act now. We are under pressure to respond. No longer can a psychopathic elite class be left alone to lead humanity to ruin. 

We cannot allow the evil in our midst to keep us divided and opposing one another like animals in the wild. We humans must unite around a core of conscience and work as a collective to seize the reins from our real enemy. But in order to do so our species must undergo an upgrade, a transformation of consciousness that will deliver us from the mental slavery perpetrated by our lower nature. 

It looks like Howell was justified to crown Selassie with a title reserved for Jesus. Like Jesus, this king of kings beckoned his followers to become something better. Like Jesus, He recognized that the evolutionary ascent of humankind continues to be the task at hand. And, to arrive at such insight there first is the recognition that we have an animal nature that must be dealt with. 

We are primates in an organic predicament. Our fluctuating brain chemistry makes us prone to delusion. These facts about our lowly status in the scheme of things must be made known to all nations. In other words, humanity must shift paradigms. When we realize that we are primates in need of “perfecting” there will be a flowering of conscience in the critical masses. 

For Howell the return of Christ was not about Jesus descending from the heavens. Informed by Hindu theology he believed Christ-consciousness arises in each dispensation as it is needed. And, Howell could see Christ-consciousness arising in Selassie. Like Jesus, the Emperor wanted humankind to recognize that we are creatures in need of an upgrade. His words were meant to inspire a transformation in our species. 

Until we are willing to admit the truth about our lowly status, as primates in need of an ethical discipline, there can be no ascent of humankind. Jesus had an interesting way of conveying this paradox: the first shall be last and the last shall be first. The visions and insights that got downloaded into my awareness as a result of that mystical union in 1997 made clear to me that this is the paradox to be conquered. 

In the book Dread: The Rastafarians of Jamaica, Joseph Owens chronicled conversations he had in the 1970’s with the pioneers of the Rastafarian religion. At that time the Rastas were convinced that they had received a special form of revelation. They believed that Rastafarians were to play a prophetic role of world-wide importance. 

There is no denying the impact that Rastafarians have made through music. For some, the Rasta’s hypnotizing reggae infused with messages about justice and freedom have sparked a spiritual renewal. But what if I told you that fulfillment of their purpose is tied up with something more? 

What if I told you that biblical prophecy continues to unfold in this generation? What if I told you the Rastafarians are meant to play a critical role by bringing global attention to the badly needed paradigm shift that their king of kings championed? What if I told you that the Living God working through people like Jesus and Selassie can work through a woman too?  What if?  Time will tell.

Faithfully yours,
