THREE WORLDS TO LIVE IN

We would like to share the insight that parallel worlds converge at
specific points, and that these are "points of consciousness." It is
thereby possible to move from one world to another by shifting the focus
of one's consciousness. The model that we are presenting details three
particular parallel worlds. There are, undoubtedly, many more realms, but
for what we consider practical purposes, we'll just be exploring three of
them. We mean "practical" in the sense that each of these three worlds are
active ly being explored by beings on this planet. They are "The Material
World," "The Magical World," and "The Miraculous World."

THE MATERIAL WORLD is the dominant mode in which humanity and other
species. The motivating or driving forces in this world are called
"instincts." Most beings on the planet today base their actions
predominantly on information they receive from their sur vival, sexual,
heirarchical, and territorial instincts. Acting on these instructions
makes statements to the universe about what is real to the actor. For the
most part, these pictures of reality stem from information that is encoded
in the DNA of the physical body. These physical-body pictures of reality
may imply:

1. I am mortal,
2. I need a mate,
3. I need Personal Power to rule others to some extent,
4. I need to own certain things and control space.

        The mental body, too, generates pictures of reality. It creates
pictures that say things like, "I must figure it all out"; "I need to be
right";  "It's okay to lie if I have a good enough reason"; "I am better
than they are"; "He's going to say this, and then I'll say that...." For
various reasons, Western civilization has elevated the mental body to a
god-like status. There are several methodologies which contend that by
controlling the mental body, negative experiences can be transcended, and
that we can even obtain enlightenment and Nirvana. The rationale goes: "I
create my own reality with my thoughts. Therefore, if I eliminate negative
thoughts and only think positive ones, then my life will change for the
better." This implies that negative thoughts are the source of one's
negative experiences, and the work then becomes to eradicate them - you
become your own thought police. And, since "whatever you're fascinated
with, you get more of," then being fascinated with negative thoughts just
brings more of them. Plus, there is another aspect to consider: "The
universe rearranges itself to accommodate your picture of reality." The
"think-only-positive- thoughts" strategy assumes that the mental body is
the sole composer of one's picture of reality - but it is not. The p
hysical body has its own views and convictions of what is real, as does
the emotional body, as well as the spiritual body (the I AM). Here is a
simple story to illustrate this.
        There was a mighty lion, Jonro, who was born in a small zoo. As he
grew, he made it a point to investigate, as best as he could, all of the
aspects of the world around him. All of the other lions in this zoo had
been born in captivity, as well. Their cag es were indoors. One day,
another lion was added to the group, but he was captured in the wild. When
he spoke of the vast savannas, the tall, spreading trees, the birds in the
sky, and the other wonders he knew of, Jonro and the others scoffed. "How
could this be!" they would exclaim. We've had plenty of time to
investigate this world. We know precisely the limits of our cages, what
other kinds of animals there are, where we came from, and how we get fed.
What you are telling us is preposterous! Prove it!"
        Beings who are exploring the Material world (and taking a stand
for its validity) suffer from the illusion of separation from their
spirit. This should be obvious - the physical senses cannot detect spirit,
which is beyond form. (Consequently, if we are not at one with our spirit,
then we cannot be at one with others, because Oneness is an attribute of
the spiritual body.) They believe they must fight and struggle to exist,
courtesy of the animal instincts. They perceive enemies. Their actions are
a seri es of strategies being played out. They fear lack and condemnation,
both which lurk in the background of their consciousness like hungry
cheetahs. They need outside authorities to tell them how to reach God and
to tell them what is real. (Today, scientist s are the priests of "what's
real.") When we find ourselves acting out and identifying with any of
these pictures of reality and agreeing that they are real, you may say
with confidence, "I am living in a Material World." Other experiences of
this domain are:

        - being caught up in a stream of thought,
        - planning sexual strategies,
        - mentally rehearsing what you're going to say when you confront
someone (which you never end up saying, anyway, when the time comes),
        - being sarcastic,
        - being obnoxious,
        - physically or verbally attacking someone,
        - proving you're right (or the other wrong).
        - defending or claiming your space

        The way that we perceive and define ourselves implies which World
we are living in. A few identities that take a stand for the validity of
The Material World are: ("I am a...")

        - hard worker
        - smart person
        - honest person
        - business person, (or, name a profession)
        - parent/spouse/child
        - awesome/inadequate lover
        - responsible person
        - funny person
        - student/teacher
        -clever/shrewd

        There is nothing wrong with these identities or with exploring the
Material World; we all do it to some degree or another; let's face it -
we're all in human forms. It's an option that our spirits have chosen to
explore, for whatever reason. (The important point is not what we are
exploring, but the position that our consciousness is in, in relation to
the action.)

        THE MAGICAL WORLD is the next step up, dimensionally speaking, from
the Material World. When you are living in a Magical World, you are taking a
stand for the realities and parameters of the fourth dimension (the astral
plane). The link between the third- dimensional physical body and the
fourth dimension is the emotional body; the emotional body peruses the
astral plane and the mental body does its best to interpret the
information (within the limitations of the linear-based functioning
ability) that it r eceives. What follows are some principles, pictures of
reality, and implications that are innate in the fourth dimension. When
you are, say, standing in line (like at the grocery store) and begin to
make psychic contact with others, you can say, "I am living in a Magical
World." When you find yourself engaged in any of the following activities,
you can say the same.

        - trying to use or get "luck,"
        - being superstitious,
        - having a sexual fantasy,
        - psychically attacking someone,
        - psychically defending someone,
        - fighting for God, the Light, or any other "good" cause (or "bad"
cause, if that's you style),
        - trying to psychically manipulate another being or situation,
        - astral traveling,
        - working out your karma,
        - trying to be worthy in the eyes of God,
        - preaching "the right way" to serve God, spirit, or the mission,
        - using magic, either "white" or "black."

        A few identities which take a stand for the validity of the
Magical World are: ("I am a...")

        - magician (druid, witch, enchanter, etc.)
        - psychic
        - healer
        - past-life regressionist
        - warrior of the Light
        - devil/demon worshipper
        - religious person

        The Magical World, compared to the Material World, is much more
exciting. There are many unusual powers and phenomena to experience there.
It has a unique and somewhat hypnotic allure. Many beings feel liberated
as they move from the limitations of The Material World into the
expansiveness of The Magical World. For others, however, this world of
shifting forms, gray alliances, and non-linear logic is scary.
Additionally, the rules of The Material don't mean much in The Magical;
for those who need to "be in control" and "know how it really is," in a
third-dimensional sense, this metamorphic reality with its uncharted
territories (including purgatories and hells) are better left alone. We
are at a time in human history in which the veils are rapidly being lifted
between the two Worlds. This is frightening to those who want The Material
World to be the safe, predictable place it has always (seemed to have)
been. As The Magical World becomes increasingly accessible, The Material
World becomes more destabilized. This is becoming increasingly apparent in
the area of relationships. In many (but not all) cases, the scenario goes
something like this: One of the partners begins to explore and experience
the validity of the Magical World. The Material World-based partner,
either unable or unwilling to explore The Magical probability, uses
"scientific, common-sense logic" to explain why The Magical World doesn't
exist, or just sarcastically dismisses the partner's interest. (A more
clever response is this: He plays along with the Magically-inclined
partners' "flights of fantasy and imagination." A wiser yet alternative:
He supports the Magically-inclined partner's exploration.) But neither
"common-sense logic" - the common logic of the five senses - nor sarcasm
can negate another person's experiences. As the lure and exploration of
The Magical World increases, there becomes less and less for the couple to
talk about. And when it comes time for parting, the defender of the
logical world finds himself alone with his cold facts, wondering what went
wrong. Another outcome of this scenario is that the Magically-inclined
partner halts or slows her progress so as not to hurt the partner, hoping
that she can "bring him along." (It may be helpful to realize that all
relationships are in the hands of spirit: spirit puts us together and
separates us in accordance with the Divine Plan. This may sound harsh to
the emotional body, but when grasped from a cosmic perspective, it is
really a blessing.)
        Relationships based upon the parameters of The Magical World can
be enchanting; all sorts of magical events may transpire. The partner's
face can morph from their usual appearance looks to that of a completely
different person. Astral sex is "out of this world"; plus there are
opportunities to play out unfulfilled Material and Magical roles with each
other, sometimes reaching into past lives.
        At this point in history, the next natural step for many beings is
to move from the exploration of The Material World to the exploration of
The Magical World. This requires letting go of rigid concepts which the
linear mind holds as real. For those who have identified themselves with
their mental and physical bodies, this, perhaps, is one of the biggest
stumbling blocks to exploring the interesting realm of The Magical World.


        The probabilities of THE MIRACULOUS WORLD are just now presenting
themselves to humanity. Dimensionally, it is the next step up from The
Magical World. Go outside on some clear night. Look up in the sky and
catch a glimpse of the stars. There are more stars than we can imagine,
with even more planets racing around them. And this is only the
third-dimensional aspect that we are seeing. Look at your hand; move your
fingers. To make all of this exist and work takes forces and a form of
intelligence that is not possible to imagine. And this is only the
third-dimensional aspect of our existence. Although this may sound
oversimplified, it does seem to point to one thing: the universe is a
miraculous place. If it can create all of this, it can do just about any
thing it wants. (For more detailed information on the miraculous nature of
the universe, read the Summer '94 issue of "The Federation Flash.")
        In The Miraculous World, linear or "horizontal" logic (which uses
past experience and one's beliefs to determine what is real), is not what
directs one's actions; nor are one's feelings, regardless of how powerful
they are. Instead, "vertical" logic (inf ormation received directly from
one's spirit), provides the data from which to act. This is spontaneous
revelation and is the key to consciously living in the Eternal Now. (You
are, in essence, channelling your spirit.)
        When we find ourselves acting out and identifying with the
following, you can say, "I am living in A Miraculous World."

        - you experience the awesome reality of living in the faith that you
are in the hands of your spirit,
        - you perceive everything as "okay" - even if it's sometimes
unpleasant - because you know that spirit is directing your course,
        - you see your identity as a Divine being unfold,
        - your reliance on Material and Magical perceptions is superseded by
your reliance on Miraculous perceptions,
        - you perceive other's pictures of reality as just that - their
pictures - and do not take their projections personally,
        - you realize that, in many areas of your life and especially your
mission, the walls of time/space are not a limitation,
        - you live with the understanding that by remaining open and empty,
the universe can manifest miracles through you,
        - you love everyone and know that they are part of the Divine Whole,
        - you are grateful to be alive,
        - you see your Vision of Heaven on Earth manifesting,
        - you share your Vision, cosmic identity, and insights freely and
naturally,
        - miracles are a given.

        A few identities (or ways to function) which take a stand for the
validity of The Miraculous World are: ("I am a...")

        - angelic/extraterrestrial/other-dimensional master
        - divine/cosmic/holy being
        - code master
        - grid/template master
        - energy-flow director
        - receiver/transmitter for your off-planet/other-dimensional team,
        - transdimensional trail blazer
        - divine fool

        Moving from The Magical World to The Miraculous World is similar
to moving from The Material to The Magical. There is a barrier that
separates these Worlds; the fear of the unknown, inherent in the human
form (and reinforced by the Dark Forces), makes be ings hesitate to
explore new worlds. On the other hand, many beings don't explore other
worlds because they are just plain ignorant of their existence: Spirit has
dictated that the veils in their consciousness remain in place - they can
do no more. It is interesting to note that in The Miraculous World, the
mental, emotional, and physical bodies are used by the universe to achieve
its ends. In The Material World, the universe is used by these bodies to
achieve their ends.
        The World in which we perceive ourselves, along with our identity,
are major components of our picture of reality. And the universe
rearranges itself to accommodate our picture of reality. If we're using
Material World criteria for the basis of our disce rnment, it will look as
if everyone is living in The Material World. If we use The Magical World
as our criteria, it will appear as if everyone is living in either The
Material World or The Magical World (or probably some combination of the
two). If we use the criteria of The Miraculous World, it will appear as
if everyone is living in The Material, Magical, or Miraculous World (or
probably some combination of the three). This is because beings who are
intensely exploring the Material World cannot include The Magical World in
their picture of reality; yet, those who are exploring The Magical can
include The Material. Similarly, those who are intensely exploring The
Magical World cannot include The Miraculous World in their picture of
reality; yet, those who are exploring The Miraculous can include The
Magical. This suggests a hierarchical order based on 1. our ability to
accept ever-expanding probabilities, and 2. our capacity to love.
        In our version of the Ascension scenario, the Planetary
Consciousness (and many other cosmic forces) is preparing a new, energetic
environment for its inhabitants to live in. The foundations are already
being laid. Its frequency will sustain only Miracul ous World experiences.
Once fully in place and operational, the option of exploring The Material
and Magical Worlds will no longer be available, at least on this planetary
body. Living in The Miraculous World will no longer be debated as to
whether it is "possible" or "impossible"; it will just be "the way that it
is."
        We would like to conclude with an insight to the adage, "Seek and
ye shall find." In The Material World, one seeks retirement and grows old;
in The Magical World, one seeks enlightenment and grows wiser; in The
Miraculous World, one seeks nothing and grows Lighter. As we all tread
the homeward path, we will explore many realms. And one day, we will all
realize that all experiences are simply different ways in which the
All-That-Is perceives itself.
