Although the following article is on the subject of religious studies, it
illustrates some important facts about the Universe:
(1) The physical universe is ONLY the LOWEST of at least a DOZEN major
levels of existence.
(2) Certain phenomena which seem to have no physical origin result from
INTERACTIONS between the physical universe and HIGHER LEVELS.
(3) It is possible for INDIVIDUALS to PERSONALLY explore the Universe,
including our Solar System, using forms of "SOUL TRAVEL". Some of these forms
are also known as "out-of-body travel" and "Astral projection". [This is
DANGEROUS without the protection of a Perfect Living Master as described
below.]
THE DIVINE MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE
Most Christians would agree, and correctly so, that
Jesus Christ was a perfect living Master, and a projection of
God into the physical world, God Incarnate.
But there are some very important related facts that
Christians are COMPLETELY IGNORANT of, as are followers of
most other world religions.
First, Jesus Christ was NOT unique, John 3:16 NOTWITH-
STANDING. There is ALWAYS at least one such perfect living
Master (God Incarnate) PHYSICALLY ALIVE in this world AT ALL
TIMES, a continuous succession THROUGHOUT HISTORY, both
before and after the life of Jesus.
The followers of some of these Masters founded the
world's major religions, usually PERVERTING the teachings of
their Master in the process. Christians, for example, added
THREATS of "ETERNAL DAMNATION" in Hell, and DELETED the
teaching of REincarnation.
Secondly, and more importantly, after a particular
Master physically dies and leaves this world, there is
NOTHING that He can do for ANYbody except for the relatively
few people that He INITIATED while He was still physically
alive. (That is simply the way God set things up in the
Universes.)
Therefore, all those Christians who worship Jesus, and
pray to Jesus, and expect Jesus to return and save them from
their sins, are only KIDDING THEMSELVES, and have allowed
themselves to be DUPED by a religion that was mostly
MANUFACTURED by the Romans.
And emotional "feelings" are a TOTALLY DECEIVING
indicator for religious validity.
These things are similarly true for followers of most
other major world religions, including Islam.
Thirdly, the primary function of each Master is to tune
His Initiates into the "AUDIBLE LIFE STREAM" or "SOUND
CURRENT", (referred to as "THE WORD" in John 1:1-5, and as
"The River of Life" in Revelation 22:1), and to personally
guide each of them thru the upper levels of Heaven while they
are still connected to their living physical bodies by a
"silver cord".
True Salvation, which completes a Soul's cycles of
REincarnation in the physical and psychic planes, is achieved
only by reaching at least the "SOUL PLANE", which is five
levels or universes above the physical universe, and this
canNOT be done without the help of a Perfect LIVING Master.
One such perfect Master alive today is an American, Sri
Harold Klemp, the Living "Eck" Master or "Mahanta" for the
"Eckankar" organization, now headquartered in Minneapolis,
(P.O. Box 27300; zip 55427).
Another perfect living Master is Maharaj Gurinder Singh
Ji, now living in Punjab, India, and is associated with the
"Sant Mat" organization.
One of the classic books on this subject is "THE PATH OF
THE MASTERS" (Radha Soami Books, P.O. Box 242, Gardena, CA
90247), written in 1939 by Dr. Julian Johnson, a theologian
and surgeon who spent the last years of his life in India
studying under and closely observing the Sant Mat Master of
that time, Maharaj Sawan Singh Ji.
Several of the Eckankar books, including some authored
by Sri Paul Twitchell or Sri Harold Klemp, can be found in
most public and university libraries and some book stores, or
obtained thru inter-library loan. The book "ECKANKAR--THE
KEY TO SECRET WORLDS", by Sri Paul Twitchell, is ANOTHER
classic.
Many Christians are likely to confuse the Masters with
the "Anti-Christ", which is or was to be a temporary world
dictator during the so-called "last days". But the Masters
don't ever rule, even when asked or expected to do so as
Jesus was.
People who continue following Christianity, Islam, or
other orthodox religions with a physically DEAD Master, will
CONTINUE on their cycles of REincarnation, between the
psychic planes and this MISERABLE physical world, until they
finally WISE UP!
RE-INCARNATION
The book "HERE AND HEREAFTER", by Ruth Montgomery,
describes several kinds of evidence supporting REincarnation
as a FACT OF LIFE, including HYPNOTIC REGRESSIONS to past
lives, SPONTANEOUS RECALL (especially by young children, some
of whom can identify their most recent previous relatives,
homes, possessions, etc.), DREAM RECALL of past life experi-
ences, DEJA VU (familiarity with a far off land while travel-
ing there for the first time on vacation), the psychic read-
ings of the late EDGAR CAYCE, and EVEN SUPPORTING STATEMENTS
FROM THE CHRISTIAN BIBLE including Matthew 17:11-13 (John the
Baptist was the REINCARNATION of Elias.) and John 9:1-2 (How
can a person POSSIBLY sin before he is born, unless he LIVED
BEFORE?!). [ ALWAYS use the "KING JAMES VERSION". Later
versions are PER-VERSIONS! ] Strong INTERESTS, innate
TALENTS, strong PHOBIAS, etc., typically originate from a
person's PAST LIVES. For example, a strong fear of swimming
in or traveling over water usually results from having
DROWNED at the end of a PREVIOUS LIFE. And sometimes a
person will take AN IMMEDIATE DISLIKE to another person being
met for the first time, because of a bad encounter with him
during a PREVIOUS INCARNATION.
The teaching of REincarnation also includes the LAW OF
KARMA (Galatians 6:7, Revelation 13:10, etc.). People would
behave much better toward each other if they knew that their
actions in the present will surely be reaped by them in the
future, or in a FUTURE INCARNATION!
"2nd COMINGS"
If a Perfect Living Master physically dies ("trans-
lates") before a particular Initiate of His does, then when
that Initiate physically dies ("translates"), the Master will
meet him on the Astral level and take him directly to the
Soul Plane. This is the ONE AND ONLY correct meaning of a
2nd Coming. It is an INDIVIDUAL experience, NOT something
that happens for everyone all at once. People who are still
waiting for Jesus' "2nd Coming" are WAITING IN VAIN.
PLANES OF EXISTENCE
The physical universe is the LOWEST of AT LEAST a DOZEN
major levels of existence. Above the Physical Plane is the
Astral Plane, the Causal Plane, the Mental Plane, the Etheric
Plane (often counted as the upper part of the Mental Plane),
the Soul Plane, and several higher Spiritual Planes. The
Soul Plane is the FIRST TRUE HEAVEN, (counting upward from
the Physical). The planes between (but NOT including) the
Physical and Soul Planes are called the Psychic Planes.
It is likely that ESP, telepathy, astrological
influences, radionic effects, biological transmutations [See
the 1972 book with that title.], and other phenomena without
an apparent physical origin, result from INTERACTIONS between
the Psychic Planes and the Physical Plane.
The major planes are also SUB-DIVIDED. For example, a
sub-plane of the Astral Plane is called "Hades", and the
Christian Hell occupies a SMALL part of it, created there
LESS THAN 2000 YEARS AGO by the EARLY CATHOLIC CHURCH by some
kind of black magic or by simply teaching its existence in a
THREATENING manner. The Christian "Heaven" is located
elsewhere on the Astral Plane. Good Christians will go there
for a short while and then REincarnate back to Earth.
SOUND CURRENT vs. BLIND FAITH
The Christian religion demands of its followers an
extraordinary amount of BLIND FAITH backed up by little more
than GOOD FEELING (which is TOTALLY DECEIVING).
If a person is not HEARING some form of the "SOUND
CURRENT" ("THE WORD", "THE BANI", "THE AUDIBLE LIFE STREAM"),
then his cycles of REINCARNATION in this MISERABLE world WILL
CONTINUE.
The "SOUND CURRENT" manifests differently for different
Initiates, and can sound like a rushing wind, ocean waves on
the sea shore, buzzing bees, higher-pitched buzzing sound, a
flute, various heavenly music, or other sounds. In Eckankar,
Members start hearing it near the end of their first year as
a Member. This and other experiences (such as "SOUL TRAVEL")
REPLACE blind faith.
UN-altered REPRODUCTION and DISSEMINATION of this
IMPORTANT Information is ENCOURAGED.

At the risk of turning this into an alt.religion discussion (dons
flameproof gear) I would like to say that Jesus didn't think of Himself
as one of a series of "Masters". Why? Look at what He said:
John 8:58 -- "I tell you the truth," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was
born, I Am!" (I Am: Yahweh -- I have existed eternally)
John 14:6 -- Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life.
No one comes to the Father except through Me. If you really knew Me,
you would know My Father as well. From now on, you do know Him and have
seen Him."
Isaiah says in chapter 43 that God is the only God; there was none
before Him and there will be none after Him. You even specifically
dismissed John 3:16. You can't take the other, convenient parts of the
Bible and reject the rest. It's all one truth. For those of you who think
it's either completely false or just corrupted, look again. I did; there's
one truth, established by God, that tells of our future beyond this world,
and whether you want to believe in it or not, God will judge you just the
same. If you want to know the truth, talk to Him...it's called praying.
