I THINK YOU’RE QUITE RIGHT.

What I gave you was my assessment of what "project" Creme, Share International, and the UN are colluding on at the present time. May I extend my remarks, dear brother in Christ, to cover at least some of the tactical strategies that are being used to advance this project?

First and foremost, from the standpoint of Ben Creme and the way he schools his acolytes, is the very idea of "group meditation."

Traditionally, in cultures both East and West, meditation has been understood as a personal phenomenon, involving concerted, active mental activity/thought processes with regard to a well-defined question or problem.

The Creme school totally inverts this understanding. "Meditation" is now to be regarded as a group phenomenon. Reason does not enter the picture. Rather a group meditation totally expunges the faculty of reason altogether.

The basic idea of a group meditation is to form a sort of "storage battery" to receive the "incoming spiritual energies" being generated by the "Hidden Masters of the Hierarchy," most notably including the "master" Lord Maitreya, whose energies the group is invoking. In "collecting" such energies, the meditating group — the collective storage battery — supposedly can make them effective (in some vague way) in the world of man and nature.

Which is just another way of saying that the way we think — or in this case, not-think — about the world external to ourselves can actually change the world, to reconfigure reality itself as it were into a new form altogether.

The logistics of a group meditation are as follows. First you need a bunch of people. On the day "Ben" and I drank scotch together, there had been such a group meditation in which I participated (for some eight or ten hours, I'm not sure how long now, but it was LONG), conducted in a private home in Agawam, Massachusetts in late winter 1995 (IIRC). Some thirty or more people showed up to participate. Then you arrange the available people in a circle, sitting comfortably in chairs; they must hold hands — and one must not break the "chain!" Then they are told to do the single most difficult thing for the human mind to do: To banish all thought. To have no ideas whatever in the mind. If one is thinking of something, then the "energies" cannot be "stepped down" from the Masters onto the "human plane." Your ego is getting in the way and spoiling everything.

Well, most people cannot do this. As a result, most people in a group meditation end up falling to sleep sooner or later. (I didn't, BTW; but then I "knew how to do the trick.") I was particularly delighted that, on the occasion of this particular group meditation, it was Ben Creme's snoring that brought people back into active consciousness; whereupon the "meditation" thankfully ended.

Then I went into the kitchen to get a glass of water, found Ben there with a bottle of Dewars in hand; and he kindly offered me a drink. We were holed up in that kitchen for hours, "arguing." And as far as I'm concerned, the rest is history. For this event proved to be of literally life-changing significance for me. I received the greatest vision of God's love that I have ever experienced in my life, then and now, before dawn of the following day.... I cherish that vivid, amazing experience in my heart to this day.

Meanwhile, my then dearest friend Ruth — the reason I was exploring Ben's "spiritual philosophy" in the first place — was furious with me: I had prevented the Master from being accessible to the acolytes waiting for him outside the kitchen. (Strangely, no one else entered that room while Ben and I were "drinking"/conversing.) Later, she read me the riot act. Sadly, what had been a very close friendship did not long survive this incident.

And I guess that's the way the cookie crumbles. God's Truth cannot be obviated.

Excuse me, but the event described took place in 1985. Forgive my errant fingers; I have arthritis in both hands.... and need a copy editor anyway. :^)

Thank you oh so very much for sharing that experience with us, dearest sister in Christ!

I firmly believe that nothing can happen in the life of a Christian unless either God did it or He permitted it:

Q.E.D.

And now we have you, a rampart of witness against this false prophet.
