RELIGION, AND A PERSONAL JOURNEY

by Dr. Lawrence Wilson

I. INTRODUCTION

DEFINITIONS

1.The word religion from the Latin language means to re-link or re-connect.

2. Religion is a person's understanding of that which they regard as holy, sacred, absolute, spiritual, divine or worthy of special reverence. It is also commonly regarded as consisting of the way people deal with ultimate concerns about their lives and their fate after death. - from the Encyclopedia Brittanica.

II. A PERSONAL STORY

This article is based upon the author's experience with religion and spirituality. I hope it will be helpful.

From childhood, the author was interested in “God”, whatever that was. In elementary school, I said the pledge of allegiance each day - “One nation, under God, with liberty and justice for all”. However, no one explained what God meant.

One day I was told the government decided that God, all prayer and the Bible were offensive and must be taken out of the schools. That was the end of the pledge of allegiance.

The Supreme Court justices who voted to take God and prayer out of the schools need to be hung from the nearest tree for treason, a very important crime. Also, that court decision needs to be reversed at once. Tell the president it is much more important than tariffs!

The family. My family was technically Hebrew. I don't use the word Jewish because I am told it is a pajorative, disparaging and belittling term.

Most of my friends were also Hebrew, but none were too observant and none knew much about God.

The family joined a reform Hebrew congregation, but did not go there often. I was told people are very serious about religion and my parents couldn't even get jobs years ago because they were Hebrew. That did not make sense.

I was also told some Christians don't like Hebrew people because they say Hebrews killed their God, who himself was a Hebrew man named Jesus. That did not make sense.

Passover. The family celebrated the holiday of Passover with cousins who lived nearby. That was enjoyable.

It was an unusual meal with strange foods. The tastiest food was the “cement” the Hebrew slaves supposedly used to make bricks to build the pyramids in Egypt.

An adult at the meal explained the reasons for the foods, and the story of how God freed the Hebrew people from slavery in Egypt about 2500 years ago. “God” sounded pretty good to get the people out of slavery.

Bar mitzvah. At age 12, the author was told about Bar Mitzvah. It is a ritual in which a person “becomes an adult” by putting on a prayer robe and reading a portion of the Torah or Bible in front of the people at a Hebrew place of worship.

The author went to a class to begin to learn enough of the Hebrew language to do this, and enjoyed learning a new language.

However, friends told him it was really all about receiving money and getting presents. This sounded wrong – unreligious – and I told my parents I was no longer interested. They said okay. That was the end of Hebrew school and preparation for Bar Mitzvah.

College. At age 18, I went to college. It was an electrical engineering school and they offered no classes or anything about “God”.

However, I liked reading. One of the best books was The Externalization Of The Hierarchy by Alice Bailey (1880-1949).

Alice Bailey lived in England and wrote 24 books! (I only read one). She said there are “masters” who help the planet. Jesus and Moses are among them.

She said they are still alive and called them the world teachers. She called Jesus the great teacher. She said the masters are helping us and one can call upon them.

Alice Bailey's books are still available. I found them at the Lucis Trust Reading Room in the United Nations building in New York City. There is also a library in London, England and in Geneva, Switzerland, and they are on the available on the internet.

I also came across Mother Theresa. Everyone needs to read about her life. She is a world teacher!

I also read about Gautama, better known as Buddha (about 563-483 BC). He lived in Nepal and India. He is another world teacher.

When he was 10 years old, Gautama he saw a dead body being dragged through the street and immediately decided to find out the truth about life.

He left home and spent years sitting under a tree, moving energy downward with his mind until he found the truth. I am told he was not God, but there is a famous religion about him called Buddhism. I'm told he doesn't like it because they have gotten away from the basic method of moving energy downward with your mind.

Krishna. I came across a Hindu book that was very interesting. It is a version of the Bhagavad Gita by Yogi Ramacharaka. (It is still available).

It is a short story about an unhappy warrior. He is about to go into battle, but finds out he is likely going to kill members of his own family and friends. He becomes very unhappy about this.

He was able to talk to God, named Krishna in the book. He asks many questions about the nature of life and why he is supposed to hurt people.

Krishna tells him life is not what you think. He is told God is in charge and decides everything. People carry out God's orders, whether they know it or not. He and everyone else are “agents of God”, so he should relax and do his job. Krishna is a world teacher.

Other mentors I stumbled upon at this time were Buckminster Fuller, definitely a very spiritual man. He was a designer and inventor. He had worked in factories as a young man, and he became an admiral in the American navy.

He had a very positive way of looking at the world. His books are not easy to read, but I recommend them.

I also found Maria Montessori, a wonderful Italian lady who helped improve education in the world. Another interesting man I read about was J. Krishnamurti.

Krishnamurti and Maria Montessori were the first of a number of mentors of mine who stressed the need to stay in the present moment, rather than live in the past or the future.

I also found Michio and Aveline Kushi. This couple brought ancient Japanese teachings to America, especially about food. We use this knowledge today in the development program.

Summer camp. Around age 20, I got a job at a Hebrew children's summer camp. It was owned by a social worker who taught me a lot about children.

The director was from a family that was half Catholic and half Hebrew, half French Canadian and half English Canadian. I spent six summers at the camp and learned a lot.

Medical school. At this time, my younger brother became ill with cancer. He was dying and doctors couldn't help. It was very scary.

The author read about nutrition and that it could help cancer. An excellent book was A Cancer Therapy – Results Of Fifty Cases by Max Gerson, MD. It is an amazing book. (Note: We don't recommend going to the Gerson Clinic at this time. I am told they don't do the therapy correctly. Better to use our development program if one wants a natural approach to health.)

My parents and my brother's doctors were not a bit interested in nutrition. They thought it was phony, even though the book is full of blood tests, x-rays, photos and more.

Doctor Gerson was unusual because he had people do coffee enemas - and they worked! The author decided to go to medical school so his parents and brother would listen to him.

Mexico. I did not apply to any American medical schools because they had little interest in nutrition. Instead, I found a school in Mexico that said they would train “community” doctors.

I went to Mexico not speaking a single word of their language. It was like going to a different planet. They said they would teach us Spanish, but they did not.

The medical school was run by a “communist”. I did not know what that meant. He told us we were “capitalist pigs” and that we did not understand the world. He made the students go out among the very poorest, sickly, starving people imaginable, in reote areas, with very little help.

It reminded me of the Bible – that God wants us to feed the starving and clothe the naked.

I had many adventures there. I delivered a baby in a little car – so scary I remember few details. Another woman died in the car. She bled to death from a birth in which the placenta did not come out.

I picked up dozens of diseases. There were mosquitos, poisonous snakes, strange worms, scorpions, tuberculosis, typhoid fever, leprosy and more.

Retracing. I have had to RETRACE each disease. This means go back and clean it up. Some say this is punishment for living incorrectly. I am told I have fixed about one-fourth of them.

For example, for a number of years, I had night sweats and fevers. These are signs of tuberculosis and malaria.

Many children died in these areas, and there was an air of death. However, the poor people seemed happier than many Americans. The reason is they were religious. When I asked about all the disease, starvation and death, they said “we go to Jesus”.

Upon graduation from medical school, the author visited the communist school director in a Mexican jail to say goodbye. The jail was a small cement box with no food or water, a bucket for poo, with filth, rapes and homosex. If one wants to eat, one's family must bring food to the jail.

The school director was probably a criminal, but I felt he wanted to help his people. I can't say the same thing about the American doctors I would later work with. Most did not try very hard.

Mexican religion. Mexico had many Native tribes such as the Aztecs, Miztecs and the Olmecs. Their “god” was named Quetzlcoatl, and there were others. However, in 1521, Hernando Cortez, a man from Spain, invaded Mexico and took over the entire nation.

He knocked down all the alters of the old God and replaced them with Catholic churches. The people suddenly became Catholics. The new God was Jesus. This seemed rather strange, but the people seemed content with it.

While in Mexico, I also read the Carlos Castaneda books such as The Teachings of Don Juan. It was about a man's training with a Yaqui Indian shaman who lived in Mexico. It was very unusual. The shaman could fly through the air and do other unusual things.

I also read about 15 books by Lobsang Rampa. He was a Tibetan man who was trained to become a monk or lama.

Another interesting book was about Edgar Cayce. He was an American Sunday School teacher who seemed to be able to bring forth medical knowledge while he was in a sleep state. His books present the Christian religion in a very loving way.

I also read books by famous Indian authors such as Vivikenanda, Ramacharaka, Paramahansa Yogananda, Pantajali, J. Krishnamurti and Sai Baba. The Orient has a rich history of religion that goes back thousands of years. It was interesting but I seemed more attracted to Western religion.

Roy Masters and pulling down. A little book that made a big impression was How Your Mind Can Keep You Well by Roy Masters. He was a Hebrew/Christian man who became a hypnotist.

He said most people are hypnotized and don't know it. He also said most people are angry and live from resentment, not love.

He said we need to de-hypnotize using a meditative exercise. I started doing it, perhaps incorrectly, but it helped me and I kept doing it every day.

We now call a version of this exercise the Pulling Down Procedure. It is a very old exercise and it moves subtle energy correctly through the body.

The practice is extremely healing, although one must do it forcefully every day for a number of years. It becomes easier with practice until one does it with little effort.

It opens and heals millions of tiny energy channels that run vertically from the head to the feet. Acupuncturists call some of them meridians.

This practice is now a basic part of the healing programs we recommend. Some don't do it, and they are missing out!

Roy Masters also taught that most people live in the past (with guilt, remorse and regret) or they live in the future (with fear and anxiety). Part of the reason for doing the mental exercise is to move into and remain in the present.

He taught that all power is in the present and problems are solved in the present. The past and the future are unreal.

The greatest truth I learned from Roy Masters was he said one must stop reading and do the mental exercise. His expression was “one must go beyond the mind”.

I was very ready to hear this. I had read so many books and all I accomplished was to ruin the body! From that time on, about age 28, and up to the present, I slowed the reading and began to focus on my spiritual practices – the pull down procedure, the diet, the supplements and a little later the coffee enemas and the rest of the development program.

III. STARTING TO LIVE RIGHT – AND NOT MUCH READING

Back in the US. After medical school, the author took a grueling 3-day examination in order to work in a hospital in the United States. It was more difficult than the exam required of students who went to school in America. Then I went to work at a big city hospital to become a family practice doctor.

The hospital was fancy, gleaming and beautiful. However, most of the doctors had huge egos and closed minds. After about four months, I was suddenly called in by the director and told to leave at once.

He said they were firing me illegally, but if I caused any trouble they would blacklist me. Then I would be unable to work anywhere in the United States.

I think I was thrown out for rubbing a lady's feet – a method of healing called Reflexology that works quite well.

Living in Mexico I had picked up many diseases and I felt sicker than the patients in the hospital. My health then became even worse, no matter what I tried doing.

It was not just the body. I realized my mind was also a complete mess. I couldn't sleep well, and had headaches, pain all over, depression and more.

I thought I knew how to live and help people, but obviously I made lots of mistakes. I realized I was really very mixed up.

I took a walk one day in freezing weather. I pulled subtle energy down from the head to the feet really hard and prayed hard for God to take over my life.

I told God I was okay with dying, but it was a big waste! My parents spent a lot of money and effort raising me and I promised I would do whatever God wants. Oddly, when I said that an energy shot through the body and my health stopped getting worse. I think one of the energy channels opened and I was saved.

Phoenix. Soon after, an acquaintance called and told me if I came to Phoenix, Arizona he could me get well. The man was a young, very religious Hebrew man I had met some years before. It was a long drive almost all the way across the United States. I was very weak and have little memory of the journey, but I arrived safely in about a week.

The man put me on a path to healing using a combination of diet, nutritional supplements, chiropractic and other body work. He also said I had to do coffee enemas every day. This was unusual, but they definitely helped and I called them “my time with God”.

I also continued the pulling down exercise for two hours every day. Progress was very slow, but health improved.

I had a session with an old man who said that Jesus was helping me. This was comforting, but I did not know what it meant.

I learned about the orthodox Hebrew religion from the man in Phoenix, but it was full of rules and rituals that did not seem necessary. I kept reading books and went to services at a few churches to see what they were like.

One was a Catholic church where messages from Jesus and Mother Mary were read during the mass. That was interesting until the messages were stopped by the church.

Another book I liked was Love Without End, Jesus Speaks. The author is Glenda Green. She was an artist. One day she joked that she wanted to paint a portrait of Jesus.

To her surprise, an image of Jesus appeared in her art studio. It remained for more than a year. While she painted, she could ask him questions. The answers were rather scientific.

I also liked a small book called The Mutant Message From Down Under by Marlo Morgan. The story is about an American woman who goes to Australia to help the Aborigines or Native people.

The book is full of surprises and delightful reading. She asks the Aborigines if they know about Jesus. They said, “Of course we do”. But he didn't visit them because they don't need him the way we do.

I also liked The Way Of Mastery. It is very repetitive, and some is definitely incorrect, but it is about love and supposedly from Jesus. The Real Self book by Dr. Wilson is based upon it.

I also stumbled upon the work of Nikola Tesla. He was a famous inventor who gave us alternating current, radio, television, touch-tone dialing and many other inventions. He was a very spiritual scientist.

The Mormons. One day, while standing in line at a store, an attractive woman turned around and said we should go out together. I did something very stupid and said okay. We now know it is very dangerous at this time to go on a date with someone you don't know.

On the date, she quickly started converting me to Mormonism, also called The Church Of The Latter Day Saints. She said I was just like a Mormon man.

She gave me a copy of the Book of Mormon and I read the whole thing. She explained that it is very important to pay the church to convert all my dead relatives to Mormonism to save their souls.

The more she talked, the stranger it sounded. I was impressed by their welfare system, but that was about all.

Since that time, we have learned that the Mormons allow rape and that it is a completely phony religion. Stay away!

Scientology. One day I rode a bicycle past a Church of Scientology building and decided to go inside. A man met me inside and I asked him what is Scientology. He sat down and started to explain it.

Soon, however, I could tell he was trying to convince me that I was mentally sick and that I needed Scientology. At that point, I got up and left.

A few years later, I visited an acquaintance in Ohio. I found out the couple were very advanced scientologists. They spent a fortune on auditing. It is a session in which one is hooked up to a machine that is something like a lie detector.

The auditor talks about your traumas and, with the help of the machine, they release the traumas. You move through stages and graduate to a higher level of what they call “clear”.

I also read the basic Scientology texts at their house. The material sounded scientific, but God is not any part of the teaching. I got the feeling that the Scientology people are very money-oriented and are organized as a church mainly to avoid taxes. I don't think it is a religion. I would stay away.

Hippie religion. I went to college just at the time the hippie movement was in full swing. It was quite anti-God, anti-American, anti-establishment, and actually against rules of any kind.

I now understand it as a very negative, hedonistic and communist movement. The people often cannot think because they have ruined their mind with drugs and alcohol.

Drug use was prominent. All types of sex and sex with anyone was also just fine. Dating generally meant sex and often drug use.

More recently, we have learned that all women are controlled and often ordered to have sex, use drugs, and filth up boys and men. This they call “dating”. Men and boys need to beware of all this. It can seem like fun but it is basically spreading disease and it is not love or loving!

Another move. After 14 years, Phoenix was becoming a big city – less clean, noisy and less safe. I started having panic attacks and decided I had to leave. I moved to Prescott, a smaller city in Arizona. Here I continued the spiritual search.

I went to a study group where people read A Course In Miracles. That was interesting, but the man in charge was a sexual predator, and that didn't make sense.

I also studied tai chi chuan with a man who learned it in China. I did not want to study it because it was about fighting other people. However, a chiropractor I respected said I needed it.

Fortunately, the teacher was very good. It is quite dangerous if you don't have a good teacher. It helped my health. Once again, I was told one must pull energy downward from the head to the feet. This was familiar to me. He had us walk around saying “sung” (meaning down in Chinese) with each step. I did it for a few years and it is an excellent way to walk. I did not continue doing tai chi because of something else that happened.

In 2002, I met a man who told me I had progressed enough with healing that I could tune in to souls or “guides”.

This was very strange and I did not believe it at first. However, I found I could ask questions and get fairly good answers from some someone.

Soon I was asking all sorts of spiritual questions. The answers are in some of the articles that are on this website. Here are some examples:

SUMMARY FROM THE SOULS

The biological concept of space and creation. The prevailing view of our origin is called the “big bang” theory. This theory states that we are basically an accident.

The belief is that there was an explosion in space. A large hunk of rock flew off, and that is our planet. Some bacteria landed on the planet and grew and eventually evolved into us. It is not a flattering or spiritual view.

The souls say this view is not true! They say the earth was created by two beautiful and much larger living beings that live in space. This understanding is called the biological concept of space and creation.

We have an article about it. This theory of creation is gaining acceptance even among astronomers because only this theory answers certain questions.

It means there is a Creator, we are loved by this Creator, and perhaps we can come to know the Creator on a personal level. For details, read The Biological Concept of Space And Creation.

I am also told the name of the creator beings is Yave. This is also the name of God in the Hebrew language. I am told that the Hebrew is a true religion and the name of God is correct.

I am also told that the Hebrew religion has been damaged by the rogues or satans. This statement will offend some people, but our only intent in saying it is to restore the true beauty of this planet and all that is upon it.

Development. One day the souls told me I was on a path they called development. It is quite unusual and consists of making more of one's DNA available to make the chemicals the body needs.

Development is known mostly by monks and nuns in monasteries. The Bible hints at it, but does not explain it clearly. It is quite amazing and has to do with our true spiritual nature. For details, read Introduction To Development.

Native religions. The souls also say that some Native groups, including many Native Americans, understand this view of creation.

In fact, the Native people say they tune into an even larger or higher Creator called the grandfather.

A common mistake people make is when a Native person says they worship the grandfathers, they think it means they worship their ancestors. This is wrong.

Most Native people understand that the Creator is a large being in space, and that this creature is inside of an even larger creature called a grandfather. This is who they are worshipping, not their dead relative.

The Hebrew religion. This religion was founded by a couple – Abraham and Sara. Sara was the first prophet and brought forth the Hebrew language.

Souls say the couple were from Ukraine, not Iraq, as the Bible implies. The souls say Ukraine is a spiritual place and that is why Mr. Putin wants to destroy it. War has been going on there for hundreds of years.

One of my mentors, Florence Nightingale, was a nurse there in a previous war, the Crimean War of 1853-1856. It was the same story – Russia invaded Ukraine and Britain, France and other nations helped stop it. America was not involved because America at that time was a small, weak nation.

Souls say the name of the Hebrew religion is not right. The correct name is Ebre (similar to the Spanish word for it - Ebreo). It means the foundation. It is pronounced and means something similar to our word ever (or forever).

The aliens, thugs, negs, crap, Rogues or satans mixed up the religion so it is hard to find the essence of it, but souls say they will help us sort it out.

The Christian Religion. Souls say this religion was started by Emperor Constantine in 325 AD at the Council Of Nicea. This was one of the most important meetings in the history of the earth.

The sous say the great teacher, Master Jesus, had nothing to do with it. I know that sounds strange.

Apparently the Roman emperor had a dream called the Vision Of The Cross. You can read about it on Wikipedia. He dreamed he could re-unite the huge Roman empire if he painted crosses on his men's shields before he went into battle. He did it and it worked.

About 15 years later, he literally announced an entire new religion at the Council of Nicea and called it the Roman Catholic Religion. I am told that articles about the Council of Nicea have been changed by the aliens to obscure this truth.

The great teacher's real name was Yeshua – emphasis on the first syllable) Yeshua or Yesh means love. Whenever you say the word yes in English, you say his name.

A very famous man attended the Council of Nicea named Nikolaos of Myra. He is a world teacher.

Many people know about him as Saint Nicholas. I am told he wasn't really Catholic because that religion did not exist at the time. In fact, he was more like a rabbi. But when he lived, people were killed if they taught the Hebrew religion!

Most people know about him by his popular, incorrect name and garb - Santa Claus.

The word Christian. Christ and Christian are from the Greek language, but I am told that criste also refers to a part of the body. It is related to the pancreas, which should be called the pancriste.

The word pan means all, like the words Pan American Airlines and pandemic. The word criste means love.

We are all missing the criste, which is on the right side of the body and shaped like a mirror image of the pancreas on the left. The aliens, thugs or satans destroy it before birth in most everyone. A few animals still have it.

Together with the rest of the pancreas, it forms a seal in the front of the body. It secretes proteolytic enzymes, among other things, that stop cancer and stop the aliens, too.

I am told one can slowly regrow the criste with our development program. The correct diet is critical. The souls have shared much more that is in articles on this website.

Islam. The author did not take much interest in Islam. The reason is that its laws are different. Murder is legal and called “honor killing”. Rape is legal. I am told that they rape all the children, as well as the women and men in the Arab nations.

To me, Islam is not a religion, but just a political movement. We highly recommend a short article called The Women Of Arabia.

Rebuilding America. The souls also talk about politics. They say America must return to its spiritual origins and to its original spiritual laws.

The founders of the nation came to America for religious freedom and understood God quite well. God comes first! Our leaders must explain this to the people. A wonderful place to learn about this the website of David Barton called Wallbuilders.

America is also weak because it is deeply in debt. This is recent and thoroughly illegal. The nation has also seriously deviated from its ruling documents.

For example, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and the 27 National Institutes of Health have no place in America. According to the Constitution, health and welfare are to be handled privately.

The American welfare system is quickly bankrupting the nation. Most of the money is stolen by the aliens. It costs six times what the nation spends on defense, a proper expense!

Also, many of the 47 or so national government agencies are illegal because the American national Congress does not have the power to regulate within the states this way. They only have that power in the territories and possessions of the United States such as Puerto Rico.

Also, the agencies violate the basic American legal doctrine of separation of powers. This means that these agencies make rules, enforce the rules and judge the rules.

Unelected and unaccountable people working in the agencies now make 99% of our laws! This is called tyranny in the law.

Many agencies are thoroughly corrupt and are ruining the nation. For example, just look at the garbage that fills about 60% of our supermarkets and you will understand that the “food regulations” are wrong.

Souls want everyone to know that tariffs won't fix the problem and executive orders are illegal under the Constitution. Tell the president! The nation must return to basic legal and spiritual principles, and quickly. Please listen!
