			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings: Today&#8217;s posting at Athbantian took me by surprise. I had thought that after I had conducted these recent interviews I would be able to sit back for a time and see the results. This was not to be the case. Taugth Intervened first thing this morning and dictated the message that I posted at Athabantian. (I got the strong impression that things are moving rapidly, and he wanted the information out.)</p>
<p>Please keep in mind that I am not in charge of these sessions. I am an intermediary &#8212; hopefully for only the first session. These sessions are orchestrated by the being from Athabantian who wishes to speak to a particular individual. There are no guarantees that a session will result in direct telepathic communications with a being from Athabantian.</p>
<p>The best interviews are in person, conducted at the Institute of Light, here in Pagosa Springs, Colorado. If you can travel here that would be best. I have had limited results using Skype, but am willing to try more.</p>
<p>In terms of scheduling sessions with someone from Athabantian let&#8217;s proceed as follows: Send an email to IOL@zqyx.org indicating your interest. I will let you know my availability. We can then schedule a session. Those who travel to Pagosa Springs will be given priority. There is no charge for a session, however a donation would be appreciated. One requirement for a session will be reading all 2011 postings at Athabantian and Mark&#8217;s Corner.</p>
<p>With Love, Joy, and great appreciation for whom we all are,</p>
<p>Mark Kimmel</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">Welcome to 2012 &#8212; the year when all will change. &#8220;In a recent communication it was reconfirmed that ALL that I have been told about will occur &#8212; although probably not in the way my human mind interprets it.&#8221; To find out more join me for an exciting weekend.</span></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: large;"><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">&#8220;2012: Catching the Wave of Transformation&#8221;</span></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff; font-size: medium;">An interactive Gathering with Mark Kimmel*</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff; font-size: medium;">January 20-21-22, 2012</span><br />
<span style="color: #0000ff; font-size: medium;">Pagosa Springs, Colorado</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff; font-size: medium;">Presented by The Institute of Light</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium; color: #0000ff;">Evening Presentation (Open to the public &#8212; $7.00 donation suggested &#8212; at Pagosa Lodge)</span><br />
Friday: Mark Kimmel will present an uplifting vision of our future &#8212; beyond humanity&#8217;s increasing chaos. How crumbling economic systems underpin the problems in all nations. Uprisings of the common people foretell the depth of changes ahead. Messages from our star brothers and sisters: who we really are. The positive energies that are sweeping across our planet. A path to higher vibration. 2012 year of change.</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff; font-size: medium;">2-day Workshop (By reservation only &#8212; limited to 19 attendees &#8212; at Institute of Light)</span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<strong><span style="font-size: medium; color: #0000ff;">Saturday</span></strong>: Examining the Transformation of Earth&#8217;s humans: Physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual functioning during interim time. Where are we headed? Understanding the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Dimensions. What will the new Earth be like? Why is reincarnation important? What is Oneness? Discover why you are here at this time and place. Share who you really are. Break the cycle of the 3rd Dimension. Discover your personal power; develop your personal energy field. Assisted by our star brothers and sisters, and universe celestials.</p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: medium; color: #0000ff;">Sunday</span></strong>: Clearing your energy body to make room for higher densities. What will you do with your newfound energies? Moving to the 4th Dimension. Earth as the center of universe attention. The new Earth and the role of Caretakers.</p>
<p>Earth is transforming herself in order to ascend to the 5th Dimension. Those humans, who choose to do so and make the necessary effort, will ascend with her. The process consists of turning our backs on the fear- based 3rd Dimension, then raising our vibrations to the 4th Dimension. This workshop will assist you to ground yourself firmly in 4th Dimension energy.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff00ff; font-size: medium;"><strong>Here&#8217;s what others have said about Mark Kimmel&#8217;s Gatherings:</strong></span></p>

<p><strong><span style="color: #ff0000; font-size: medium;">*About Mark Kimmel</span></strong></p>
<p>“Since 1997 I have studied, received, and recorded information from celestials and from our star brothers and sisters. My latest book, Transformation, is a compilation of their messages from 2009 and 2010. My more recent communications are posted at Athabantian. My personal comments are at Mark&#8217;s Corner”</p>
<p>Mark has spoken at international forums, been a guest on radio and television shows, and conducts workshops based on his insights into the current transformation of Earth and her humans. Mark’s earlier books, Trillion, Decimal, One, and Birthing a New Civilization contain messages from similar sources; they provide easy introductions to the larger picture. Most recently he has established the Institute of Light, a center to assist individuals to become part of an uplifted future for humanity by achieving higher personal vibration.</p>
<p>Mark has moved beyond the sensational and fear riddled perspectives that plague many who get trapped in the UFO and ET phenomena, and the secrecy and misinformation surrounding it. At the same time he has avoided the constraints of traditional religions in his investigations of the larger reality. By focusing on higher Dimension teachings from celestials and our star brothers and sisters in his channeling, writing, and speaking, Mark presents an enlightened vision for the future of all in Oneness.</p>
<p>In a career spanning 20 years, Mark founded and ran three of the most respected Colorado venture capital funds. In addition to providing capital, Mark served on portfolio companies’ boards and helped them with strategy and tactics. Prior to his venture capital work he was employed by two major corporations. He retired from industry in 1996 to take up his current efforts full time. Mark has been listed in Who’s Who since 1985. He has degrees in engineering, marketing, finance, psychology, and divinity.</p>
<p>Mark is married with two grown sons. He spends his days writing and speaking about this, the pivotal juncture in human history, and how each person has the power to make this metamorphic transformation positive not only for him- or herself but for all on this planet.</p>
<p>He is the founder of the Cosmic Paradigm Network, an international group dedicated to manifesting a positive transformation, and the Institute of Light, a center dedicated to assisting individuals during these times of transition in conjunction with celestials and our star brothers and sisters.</p>

<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Saturday:</strong></span> Examining the Transformation of Earth&#8217;s humans: Physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual functioning during interim time. Where are we headed? Understanding the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Dimensions. What will the new Earth be like? Why is reincarnation important? What is Oneness? Discover why you are here at this time and place. Share who you really are. Break the cycle of the 3rd Dimension. Discover your personal power; develop your personal energy field. Assisted by our star brothers and sisters, and universe celestials.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Sunday:</strong></span> Clearing your energy body to make room for higher densities. What will you do with your newfound energies? Moving to the 4th Dimension. Earth as the center of universe attention. The new Earth and the role of Caretakers.</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;">Earth is transforming herself in order to ascend to the 5th Dimension. Those humans, who choose to do so and make the necessary effort, will ascend with her. The process consists of turning our backs on the fear-based 3rd Dimension, then raising our vibrations to the 4th Dimension. This workshop will assist you to ground yourself firmly in 4th Dimension energy.</span></p>

<p><span style="text-decoration: underline; color: #ff0000; font-size: medium;"><strong>*About Mark Kimmel</strong></span></p>
<p>“Since 1997 I have studied, received, and recorded information from celestials and from our star brothers and sisters. My latest book, <a href="../Books/Transformation/">Transformation</a>, is a compilation of their messages from 2009 and 2010. My more recent communications are posted at <a href="../Athabantian/">Athabantian</a>. My personal comments are at <a href="../marks-corner/">Mark&#8217;s Corner</a>”</p>
<p>Mark has spoken at international forums, been a guest on radio and television shows, and  conducts workshops based on his insights into the current transformation of Earth and her humans. Mark’s earlier books, <a href="../mark-kimmel/trillion">Trillion</a>, <a href="../books/decimal/">Decimal</a>, <a href="../books/one-toward-a-civilization-of-light/">One</a>, and <a href="../books/birthing-a-new-civilization/">Birthing a New Civilization</a> contain messages from similar sources; they provide easy introductions to the larger picture. Most recently he has established the <strong><em>Institute of Light</em></strong>, a center to assist individuals to become part of an uplifted future for humanity by achieving higher personal vibration.</p>
<p>Mark has moved beyond the sensational and fear riddled perspectives that plague many who get trapped in the UFO and ET phenomena, and the secrecy and misinformation surrounding it. At the same time he has avoided the constraints of traditional religions in his investigations of the larger reality. By focusing on higher Dimension teachings from celestials and our star brothers and sisters in his channeling, writing, and speaking, Mark presents an enlightened vision for the future of all in Oneness.</p>
<p>In a career spanning 20 years, Mark founded and ran three of the most respected Colorado venture capital funds. In addition to providing capital, Mark served on portfolio companies’ boards and helped them with strategy and tactics. Prior to his venture capital work he was employed by two major corporations. He retired from industry in 1996 to take up his current efforts full time. Mark has been listed in Who’s Who since 1985. He has degrees in engineering, marketing, finance, psychology, and divinity.</p>
<p>Mark is married with two grown sons. He spends his days writing and speaking about this, the pivotal juncture in human history, and how each person has the power to make this metamorphic transformation positive not only for him- or herself but for all on this planet.</p>
<p>He is the founder of the <a href="../join-cosmic-paradigm-network/">Cosmic Paradigm Network</a>, an international group dedicated to manifesting a positive transformation, and the <strong><em>Institute of Light</em></strong>, a center dedicated to assisting individuals during these times of transition in conjunction with celestials and our star brothers and sisters.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline; color: #ff0000;">The <em>Institute of Light</em> has become operational.</span></strong><span style="color: #ff0000;"> But before we get to that significant news, let me lay some groundwork by addressing this moment of great change.</span></p>
<p>Since 11/11/11 everything is changing even more rapidly. Can you feel it? I do, and it&#8217;s wonderful. I know it&#8217;s true for me, yet I&#8217;m having trouble putting it into words. I feel a great sense of confidence and calmness that everything will work out great for me and for everyone who chooses to transition.</p>
<p>A little background, in my opinion there are no 3rd dimension solutions &#8212; political, economic, religious, or otherwise &#8212; to the basic problems that confront our planet and its human population: poverty, health, hunger, inequality, environmental deterioration, water scarcity, mind control, oppression, injustice, wars, violence &#8212; societal and personal, and dysfunctional relationships. The fear underlying these has prevented any significant progress for the humanity for thousands of years. If we experience the complete breakdown of our current economies and governments, the natural response will be to replace them with something else based in the 3rd Dimension &#8212; this has happened numerous times. Therefore, there is no reason to believe our current situation will change, if we continue to use the tools of the 3rd Dimension, or extrapolations of these tools.</p>
<p>To break this cycle of living in the 3rd Dimension, I believe we need fundamentally new approaches. Furthermore I believe some influence, beyond the control of the elites who run this planet, must occur to motivate people to adopt any radically new approaches. One such influence could be major Earth changes (significant enough to capture everyone&#8217;s attention). Another could be intervention by beings from vastly higher frequencies (something to move everyone to embrace higher vibrations). A third could be the mass appearance of our star brothers and sisters (but only after there is no 3rd Dimension military response). The fallout from any one of these would cause people to question the existing paradigm, to look beyond our current economies, governments, or religions for answers, and to be highly motivated to embrace fundamental change. Together (the most likely scenario) such events will cause us to look into ourselves for who we really are, to seek community for support, and to connect with our spiritual selves.</p>
<p>If we are able to look beyond the confines of the 3rd Dimension, to see who we really are &#8212; great beings of light confined in physical form &#8212; and see the true scope of the universe, and understand Oneness, we immediately come to the conclusion that radically new approaches are not only possible, but are at hand. The overall purpose of the <em>Institute</em> is to energize these gateways to transforming Earth&#8217;s humans, without dismissing the need for continued Earth human involvement.</p>
<p>At this moment the attention of all of creation is focused on Earth and her humans. A crew of the highest celestials is pointing the way to the higher path and pouring forth the means to increase our vibrations. Many of our star brothers and sisters have flocked to assist both Earth and their human sisters and brothers. Earth is returning to that glorious state in which she existed prior to descending into 3rd Dimension density. We are all being invited along as valuable participants.</p>
<p>The main point I would to make is that if you wish to move forward, rather than clinging to that which is familiar, i.e. the 3rd dimension, then you must find ways to raise your vibration to that of the 4th Dimension, or higher. That is where Earth is headed. If you wish to remain on this planet you will vibrate at 4th Dimension frequency or higher, period.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Now back to the <em>Institute of Light</em>:</span> Our initial office will be located in Pagosa Springs, Colorado, U.S.A. (a small mountain town in the Colorado Rockies). The <em>Institute </em>is a partnership among the humans of Earth, certain celestials, and our star brothers and sisters, primarily from Andromeda. Its mission is to energize Earth&#8217;s transformation.</p>
<p>Earth and her human inhabitants are undergoing a time of great change. Operating from a 5th Dimension perspective, the<em> Institute </em>is dedicated to assisting individuals to become part of an uplifted future on the new Earth. The <em>Institute</em> will guide individuals to shed fear-based lives for love-based ones by achieving greater understandings and higher personal vibrations.</p>
<p>In January, we will begin by offering a series of talks and workshops designed to broaden perspectives and raise vibrations. We will also conduct regular classes, meditations, and discussion groups.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline; color: #ff0000;">I will be making a presentation, &#8220;<strong><em>Catching the Wave of Transformation</em></strong>,&#8221; on Friday, January 20, 2012, here in Pagosa Springs, and conducting a workshop the following Saturday and Sunday.</span> My talk will encompass my interpretation of current events, insights into pending changes, directions for navigating the chaos and ascending to the new Earth, and messages from Adrial, Bren-Ton, Justine, Moraine, and others. The workshop will expand on these and engage each participant in sharing his or her experiences.</p>
<p>I will post information about upcoming talks, workshops, and events at: <a href="../marks-corner/">Mark&#8217;s Corner</a>. These events are open to all. We have good accommodations for those traveling from out of town. The nearest airport is Durango, CO.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">A number of people had contacted me since the <em>Institute</em> was first discussed by Bren-Ton in June of 2009. If you are still interested in participating in any way, please contact me.</span></strong> If you have questions about the Institute or other questions, you may contact me at <a href="mailto:cp@zqyx.org">cp@zqyx.org</a></p>
<p>Donations will make a difference. The <em>Institute</em> is a Colorado non-profit corporation. Donations are tax deductable under an IRS 501(c)3 ruling. All donations will be used to support the energizing work of the <em>Institute.</em></p>
<p>Blessings</p>
<p>Mark</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">P.S. My books, <em>Trillion</em>, <em>Decimal</em>, and <em>One</em> are perfect gifts for those whom you wish to introduce to the larger picture.</span></strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings: Today I wish to discuss an important word, &#8220;perspective.&#8221; For it is in the way in which we see something that determines our belief about it, and, in turn, our intent, our desires, and our actions. So you see it all begins with perspective. Let us look at several examples of perspective in order to illustrate this.</p>
<p>If I am seeing the world about me from a 3rd Dimension perspective, I will accept what the national media is saying. I will also accept the words of those who speak for our banking systems, our governments, our health care systems, and our religions. In turn I will feel that everything can be solved by politics, regulation, and security to maintain order, domestically and abroad. On the other hand, I may see politics as a way to restore my individual freedoms.</p>
<p>In contrast to this, if I am seeing everything from a 5th Dimension perspective, I will see that the game of the 3rd Dimension is a futile exercise, one that is being managed by a small group for their benefit. If I have a 5th Dimension perspective, I will be functioning in my life from a place of love and light, I will see other Earth humans as souls having a bodily experience, I will see Earth as a great soul who desires the very best for her human residents, and I will recognize that this planet is one among many. In 5th dimension I will be open to the idea of an assortment of beings who I cannot see living among us, beings living within the earth, and animals who already live in the 4th Dimension that sacrifice their lives to teach me something about Oneness.</p>
<p>If I have the perspective that these times will continue into the foreseeable future, then I will feel little need to change anything in my life, other than buying the latest clothes, eating great food, and living well as the result of making lots of money, for I will see my personal wealth determining my status and comforts.</p>
<p>If on the other hand I have a perspective that all is changing, I will live accordingly. If my perspective is that change will be accompanied by devastation and chaos, I will seek ways to live as a &#8220;survivalist,&#8221; seeking security in some underground hideout. Or I may welcome these changes for I see current conditions on Earth as unsustainable.</p>
<p>Earth is undergoing changes to return herself to a beautiful pristine planet, initially of 4th dimension status, then on to 5th dimension. Her wish is that as many of her human residents as possible accompany her. There is no scarcity of resources in a 4th or 5th dimension existence. There will be however a reorientation of all that is brought forward from the 3rd Dimension.</p>
<p>For example, moving from a petroleum-based civilization to a civilization wherein there is no more burning of fossil fuels, will change much in my life. If my perspective is that this will change immediately, it will cause me to act in one way. A belief that fossil fuels will be phased out gradually will lead me in a different direction.</p>
<p>If my perspective is that time is collapsing, I will see that much can change in a very short time. If I am not open to this perspective, I will attempt to act as I have in the past despite all indications to the contrary.</p>
<p>My perspective is the key to how I will act in the days and weeks ahead. If my perspective sees the duality of the 3rd Dimension as a basis for action, then I will cling to my comfort zone, my status, my material wealth, and to seeking security. In addition while I may hear the words of others about Earth changes, the collapse of manmade constructs, and the reality of our star brothers and sisters, I will ignore them because I am afraid to change.</p>
<p>If my perspective is such that I hear the words of others about Earth changes and the collapse of manmade constructs, but insist that they do not impact my life, then I am operating from fear of confronting the larger reality, fearful that I will be unable to return to my peaceful cocoon. In addition, if I fail to realize that all is One, then I also fail to realize that those whom I judge not to be part of my circumscribed world are in reality my brothers and sisters who are here to teach me something.</p>
<p>If my perspective rests in Oneness, I will embrace all, even those whom I judge as different. If my perspective rests in Oneness, I will see the Earth as my gracious host and will honor her and her plants and animals. If my perspective rests in Oneness, I will see those from another world, or another dimension, as children of Creator just as am I.</p>
<p>As you increase your vibration and broaden your perspective, you will find it increasingly easy to see all in Oneness. As you increase your vibration you will move from the 4th Dimension to the 5th Dimension, and beyond. As you increase your vibration you will serve as a beacon for those of a slower vibration, guiding them to the wonders of the new Earth, to communion with their star brothers and sisters, and to reuniting with Creator.</p>
<p>Once a 5th Dimension perspective is internalized along with the corresponding vibration, many things will change. Things like money, status, and security, that you thought were important from your 3rd Dimension perspective will no longer have value. Things like Oneness, relationships, freedom, peace, elegance, no good or bad, reverence, and functioning from your heart will manifest themselves and you will learn to live from this perspective.</p>
<p>In Truth, Love and Joy,</p>
<p>Mark Kimmel</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings: I wish to once again communicate with you about my observations on events swirling about us, with more to come in the near future. Please note that the messages at this site are not communications from Athabantian.</p>
<p>The Earth upon whose surface we live is a physical manifestation of Earth&#8217;s soul. Our brothers and sisters from the stars have explained to us in earlier messages that Earth&#8217;s physical body will be ascending to the 4th Dimension. Along with this ascension Earth is causing earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic activity, and extreme weather as a means of ridding herself of the dark energies that have accumulated.</p>
<p>Our bodies are also a physical manifestation of souls, our souls, and as such they experience physical ailments in reaction to the dark energies of fear, hatred, etc. Our bodies are an analogy to that of Earth&#8217;s. So if we have any unusual or unexpected physical distress (not chronic illnesses) during these times of transition, our bodies may be undergoing changes similar to what Earth is experiencing.</p>
<p>As Earth ascends into the 4th Dimension all of us will feel the impact of her higher frequencies in our bodies. Those of us who are able to match the frequency of the ascending Earth will find our bodies resonating in wellness and that many of our illnesses depart, and we will be left with robust bodies in prime condition, bodies that may last for many, many times a conventional 3rd Dimension lifetime. Those among us who cling to 3rd Dimension frequencies will experience such trauma that they will choose to depart from this life.</p>
<p>Now is the time to learn remedies for illnesses that are based in energies, not modern medicine, for all of modern medicine will soon disappear. Some of the old ways may survive the transition, but with 4th Dimension bodies who is to say if the old remedies will work. Learn to work with the energies of healing so that you might help others, as well as yourself, during the time of the 4th Dimension.</p>
<p>As I have said before, raise your personal vibration to as high a level as possible, then practice maintaining it despite what is going on about you. If you master this, you will be well served in the coming weeks and days.</p>
<p>In Truth, Love &amp; Joy,</p>
<p>Mark Kimmel</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings: In the past few weeks, I have received information from several sources about the extraordinary energies that will be hitting Earth in the coming weeks and days. I <span style="text-decoration: underline;">believe</span> these sources to be more or less accurate in what they are foreseeing.</p>
<p>Several of these sources predict that these energies will cause widespread destruction and chaos. They forecast earthquakes and tsunamis, volcanic activity and extreme weather, all resulting in loss of lives. I <span style="text-decoration: underline;">believe</span> that is a fear-based, 3rd Dimension interpretation of what these people are seeing. I also <span style="text-decoration: underline;">believe</span> that many people who cling to life in the 3rd Dimension will experience these very conditions.</p>
<p>Could it not be that amidst all the energies impacting Earth and transforming it into a pristine planet that there are energies of transformation for us as individuals? If we can accept them in this beneficial light, the light of love, then we should welcome their impact, for they will usher in a new age of enlightenment and Oneness. I <span style="text-decoration: underline;">believe</span> that if our frequency is of a higher Dimension, we will indeed see beneficial effects in these energies.</p>
<p>So it remains to be seen how these energies will impact each of us individually. I for one intend to accept them as beneficial and go with their transformative value. This is my <span style="text-decoration: underline;">opinion</span>; take it for what it is worth.</p>
<p>In Truth, Love, and Joy</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Greetings.</span></span> This message is the result of a request by my off-planet friends to share a little more of my personal transformation as a way of helping others to see possibilities for their own personal transformation, and to show one way in which transformation out of the 3rd dimension led to life in the higher dimensions.</p>
<p>Let me first give you my understanding of the 3rd dimension: It is the condition of personal energy, characterized by duality, by fear, and by my conscious mind whose job is to keep us safe in this situation. There is material form that surrounds us &#8212; my chair, my computer, my home, and all other aspects of Earth &#8212; but these are not what define the density we have labeled as &#8220;3rd dimension.&#8221; That which surrounds us is the backdrop to the drama in which we are engaged.</p>
<p>When I am functioning from a place of love, when the pressures of competition, opinions, beliefs, achievement, security, and money are not in the forefront of my existence, then I am functioning in the 4th dimension. In my everyday life I move back and forth between 3rd and 4th dimensions.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Now to my history, particularly as it pertains to my personal transformation</span>:</span> I was raised in a conservative middle-class home, filled with beliefs about achievement, success in the material world, and a fervent belief in the teachings of Catholicism. I learned about hierarchy and the outside world from my parents, from school, and from my early working environment. I recall my father pointing out a newspaper article about the crash of a saucer in Roswell, New Mexico, but I didn&#8217;t pay too much attention to it. I studied engineering at my father&#8217;s urging and in light of the Russian space program. I went into the corporate world because it was the right thing to do.</p>
<p>I bought into the belief that my goal was to achieve material success &#8212; but not completely. There was always the nagging feelings that there was something more to life than climbing the corporate ladder, amassing substantial funds, creating an estate, marrying and having children. But for all purposes my life was the traditional American dream &#8212; and I was quite successful in pursuing it. In 1964, I was treated to a glimpse of Project Blue Book, but dismissed it as merely interesting, and went back to my conventional life.</p>
<p>During those years I did engage in several out-of-the-box workshops, but they were all directed towards being more successful on the traditional path. Although I enjoyed movies such as Star Wars, took in an episode or two of Star Trek, and read one or two science fiction books, I looked upon these as fiction. I never seriously questioned life beyond the conventional confines of Earth, and, more importantly, beyond traditional American thinking. Even the Viet Nam war passed me by as I received a technical deferment. During my business career, while I was enjoying the fruits of my successes, I was blind to the larger reality.</p>
<p>My awakening began in 1985 when my divorce from my wife of nineteen years was finalized &#8212; something within had stirred me to move from the conventional life she desired. I then went through two years of turmoil in my personal and business lives. I tried to create a more idyllic life for my self, my two boys, and to integrate this into my blossoming career as a venture capitalist. Nothing worked out as planned.</p>
<p>In 1986, while married to my second wife, I was startled by what felt like high-powered energies entering my body and felt as if I was being lifted from my bed. It was all over in a matter of seconds, but the event was chiseled into my consciousness. My wife gave me a copy of the Urantia Book, after I had expressed interest in it after a dinner conversation with friends. For the next few months, I devoured it &#8212; even cutting out sections so I could read it on airplanes. For the first time I saw the reality of life beyond planet Earth, and the reality of a larger, though vaguely defined spiritual picture.</p>
<p>After my second wife and I divorced in 1987, and I was once again focusing on my business career, I was visited on several successive nights by powerful beings. They came to the foot of my bed just as I was getting ready to sleep. My reaction was fearful and I rejected them. However, as I was to subsequently to learn, they awakened me to my real purpose for incarnating at this time and place.</p>
<p>It was my business partners who first spotted the changes &#8212; I was no longer the &#8220;eagle with the blood on its beak.&#8221; At the end of 1991, I was ushered out of the venture capital firm I had founded. At the time I was devastated; looking back on it, I had received a great gift.</p>
<p>Until the middle of 1996, I struggled with various business opportunities, but nothing gelled. I then decided to go back to school to get a degree in psychology &#8212; to put myself on a new track and to figure things out. I terminated all involvement in business. At about that same time I met my current wife, who has been a source of stability and encouragement along my new path of writing several books, of speaking out about the larger reality, and of communicating with off-planet beings. In 1997, my first book, &#8220;Trillion,&#8221; spilled out of my computer, as I was writing an academic paper.</p>
<p>It was not until the summer of 2001, while on a CSETI outing that I saw my first &#8220;UFO,&#8221; and gained an understanding of the larger universe &#8212; what an impression that made! I went home to edit &#8220;Trillion,&#8221; and made only one substantial change: I now knew that spacecraft could fly faster than the speed of light, as I had now seen a craft dematerialize. I did not change the basic concept behind the book: Off-planet beings are walking among us.</p>
<p>In my three &#8220;faction&#8221; books, you can see how my understanding of the larger picture has evolved. The first book shows traces of the Urantia Book, by the third book this has been replaced by my larger understanding of the cosmos, as well as our situation on this planet. My latest book, &#8220;Transformation,&#8221; is a compilation of messages received from our brothers and sisters from other star systems, celestials, and other significant beings &#8212; a far cry from the businessman who did not even read science fiction.</p>
<p>Looking back on my path I see transformation. I have moved from a very conventional life, committed to things defined within the 3rd dimension, to a very fulfilling life within the 4th dimension. I see things like the Urantia Book and CSETI as steps to my awakening, and see that my embracing of them and other guideposts have dissolved as daily I become more aware of my true nature. Nowadays I visit several select web sites to glean the latest information coming from off-planet, I listen to my own messages from our brothers and sisters from the stars, and I pay close attention to the &#8220;knowing&#8221; I hear from my heart.</p>
<p>I hope this exposé will serve to assist those of you who are struggling with moving into the 4th dimension, and higher. I am not advocating a life of writing or of speaking out, rather I am encouraging you to find out who you truly are and to live your life based on that reality, not a reality defined by others. Live so that your love-based energy will spread for the benefit of all. As I am fond of saying, &#8220;Hey, if a conservative old business guy can do this, anybody can.&#8221;</p>
