This is Tony talking with Rev. Paul Nugent.
He is not only one of the long standing members and Directors of the Aetherius Society....
but also a person who works as a Minister, as part of the Aetherius Society.
It's a wonderful joy to speak with you again Reverend Paul.
Welcome to 'Vibrational Point'.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Thank you very much. Very nice to be on your program.
Yeah, it's very nice to talk with you.
I was thinking...
You were just suggesting that people have just little of a brief re-introduction to
the Aetherius Society.
A little recap. Go right ahead.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Well, as some of your listeners may know the Aetherius Society was founded
in England in 1955 by a western master of yoga called Dr. George King....
who had spent many of the previous years practicing various forms of yoga for up to eight hours
a day. Over a ten year period....
which enabled him to go into the highest state of Meditation, known on this Earth, known
as Samadhi...
where one has this experience of where it is all consciousness, all knowledge and all
bliss.
It's literally the goal of yoga.
It's what all yogi's aspire to attain.
Which, that being said, it's actually the main reason why we are all here in this lifetime, or any
other lifetime,
is to literally attain that state which we sometimes refer to as Cosmic Consciousness.
So, Dr. King was able to attain this back in the 1950's, as I say.
He was in his mid-thirty's.
And his motives for doing this was really to.....
having come out of the second world war in which he served in London's fire service during
the blitz,
was to help humanity as much as one individual could.
And one morning in May 1954, to his astonishment I should say, he was contacted,
or rather he heard a voice,
a very clear voice and very stark, which said,
'Prepare Yourself. You Are to Become the Voice of Interplanetary Parliament'
And Dr. King had never heard of Interplanetary Parliament
but none-the-less he knew with his yogic experience and training that what he had heard was no
vague apparition.
It was very much for real.
He also knew that he had been preparing himself for some particular role.
And anyway this contact came from a Master, we believe, originated from Venus, known by
the pseudonym of 'Aetherius'.
And that is why we are called the Aetherius Society.
I should perhaps quickly just state there, of course,
because orthodox scientists would say that life cannot exist on Venus.
We're talking about different levels of dimension, other realms of vibration on other Planets,
just as there are on our own Planet where we go when we 'die'.
The virtual 'heavens' and the 'hells'.
And so, that is the origins of the Aetherius Society.
Dr. King was subsequently over the following 40 odd years as a medium for Masters from
other worlds,
and also Masters from this Earth who spoke through him
giving a variety of profoundly relevant messages to the human race.
Number one, about our own divinity,
about the whole purpose of life, of evolution within creation...
and, as I mentioned, this originated back in the 1950's.
At the time of the Cold War.
And they were very active, these Masters,
in appealing to humanity to back away from the nuclear arms race because we had literally,
have literally, destroyed our previous civilisations, namely, Atlantis and Lumeria, in this way.
So, it was then a very critical time.
One could argue that it's an even more critical time right now.
And I know that there are many prophecies regarding the era around 2012.
So, the Aetherius Society has emerged into an International Spiritual organisation based
on these Cosmic Teachings,
Transmissions, given by the Masters, through Dr. George King.
And also, in various, what we call, Cosmic Missions,
ways in which we actively participate with Masters from other worlds to help balance
the karma of the human race. Very negative karma, by on large, to maintain this balance.
giving more and more people around the world the opportunity to realise what is our true
Not the acquisition of goods, etc, etc, etc, which is, I guess, much of the prevailing
understanding.
But, that we are spiritual beings here to evolve in a very spiritual way.
So, that's a very brief recap of what the Aetherius Society is all about.
Well, thank you for encapsulating with such detail and efficiency.
It's a story that I think is astounding on a number of levels.
I think the quality of the information that has come about through Dr. King in all of
these years is really an amazing thing.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Thank you for saying that. And I'm glad you able to appreciate that because
it is astounding information.
It's not 'airy fairy'.
You know, somewhat at the end of the day, meaningless information.
I refer to the Aetherius Society as being at the deep end of the New Age movement.
It's a profound call to Spiritual Action.
It's not a time just to have fancy ideas.
We all need to be involved, in a very determined way, in Service to others
and in Service to the Planet with a greater realisation that the Mother Earth is a very
living Being,
the Sun is a very living Being,
even the Galaxy is a living Being.
And there's a wonderful set of teachings called the Twelve Blessings,
given 50 years ago actually in 1958, which drags us to that wonderful Cosmic Realisation.
And, as you say, it's the 50th year anniversary of that set profound teachings.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) It is indeed, yes.
That makes me think that there maybe something extraordinary that the Aetherius Society might
be thinking of doing to commemorate that anniversary.
(Rev, Paul Nugent) Well, I think Tony, you originally have heard the podcasts that are
actually on our website called
'Why the Aetherius Society' which goes into all of these aspects.
Or at least touches upon them.
But you are absolutely correct.
We will be.....
have already begun actually,
to record podcasts of each of the Twelve Blessings as a series of teachings, that I was just
referring to, that were given in 1958.
We believe incidentally by Jesus.
Jesus overshadowed Dr. George King.
Spoke through him.
These are all obviously recorded back in 1958, which we play at each of our divine services,
one of these Blessings.
And, anyway, we will be having...
putting out, these podcasts on each of the Twelve Blessings later in the year
exactly on that 50th anniversary when they were originally given.
That is a wonderful thing.
I think that again, the quality of the information which....
someone who's been around and looked at a lot of different teachings
and experienced the quality of some of the very, very most profound and life changing
and transformative teachings
will have the experience when they are touched by what Dr. King shares and what the Aetherius
Society works to do,
you get a sense of the depth and the consciousness and the strength, and spirit, and the upliftment,
that a person will feel when they have it.
Just speaking for myself,
when I contacted the Aetherius Society and started to look closely at the teachings
and the quality of the information,
and you could say that the experience that I had,
you could say that the vibration appears to come through the messages,
it is extremely striking,
very high quality of experience that I felt.
and I think I'm certainly not alone in that.
This is probably the reason that the Aetherius Society has had such a large following and
it is an international organisation.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Well, I think, all that being said, one has to have already been on
some kind of spiritual path,
some spiritual quest, in order to properly appreciate the teachings of the Aetherius
Society.
If one comes across it for the very first time one is probably going to rebound of them
because they are to quote Shakespeare, from Hamlet;
'Caviar of the general'
They are not necessarily, sort of, for the general masses.
We would like them to be.
In fact, this book The Twelve Blessings, this wonderful set of teaching, given as we've
just mentioned 50 years ago,
when it was given by the Master Jesus,
there's was inevitably a strong reaction to that.
Not a good reaction.
People found it very difficult to digest.
However, that being said.
When they were given in 1958 it was said at the time that they were being given 52 years
ahead of their originally intended time to be have given to this Earth.
Of course, 2010, which ties-in also with the Mayan Prophecy if 2012.
But, what we somewhat inevitably found over these five decades..
and increasingly,
is peoples, sort of, natural resonance to these Blessings.
Whereas before, you know, the teachings were more than people could, sort of, latch onto.
And therefore, at this age rebounded right of them.
There has been over the recent decades, increasingly again, this rise in awareness,
this sense that there is a great change coming to this world.
A necessary change in the majority of ways.
This rise in consciousness.
And as such, people are much more able and willing to accept that these teachings could
have come from Jesus.
And to recognise the profundity of what is being said.
So that's a very good thing.
It is very striking, again, the quality of the way the message comes across
and the resonance one feels with some of the very strongest teachings of Jesus from the
Bible,
and in recent years, just a few years before these teachings were given,
we had the discovery of new aspects of Jesus' teaching that came through the Nag Hammadi
texts that were discovered in Egypt.
And so we have this amazing blend of information that gives us a deeper and deeper appreciation
for what this message of Jesus is really all about.
And amazingly, Dr. King's message, which is said to be an amplification of what was given
in the Sermon on the Mount...
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Exactly. It's often referred to as a Cosmic Extension to that Sermon and
given in the series of Blessings.
And, on that note, the Twelve Blessings is not just an incredibly profound spiritual
teaching,
mystical teaching,
it's also, as importantly, a practice that literally anybody can use.
It's a wonderful way of invoking energy, spiritual energy, through prayer and sending it outwards
to the Blessings themselves
which become extremely elevated in their Cosmic Status, if you like,
but also sending that energy to raise humanity upwards.
And that, again, coming back to what I was saying earlier, that's what we have to do,
When I say 'we',
all conscious spiritual workers need to be involved in some kind of practice.
And the Twelve Blessings is a wonderful way in which people can, in their own homes, or
in groups, can participate in that way.
On which note, earlier this year. i think maybe when we last had our last conversation
the Aetherius Society had people around the world
performing the Twelve Blessings for an unbroken period of time of seven days, four hours a
day for seven days.
And we will be doing this again in April.
And anybody who's familiar with the Twelve Blessings and who will have access to the
Twelve Blessings,
everybody can join in with that.
There's something else about the Aetherius Society which really strikes me and it comes
along with the teachings of the Twelve Blessings,
there's a particular type of prayer that the Aetherius Society teachings which is referred
to as Dynamic Prayer.
And that's very much a part of the way the Twelve Blessings is practiced.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Yes, it is. These aren't so much prayers for one's own contemplation.
Although that is obviously a method of prayer and a very valuable method to commune in one's
way, if you like, with God or spirit.
But the Twelve Blessings, in terms of Dynamic Prayer, is a way of invoking energy,
which we live in a universe of energy,
and conditioning it in a very inspirational way and with tremendous love and feelings
through the heart and sending it out through the Heart Centre.
And when do do pray in this way we have our palms facing outwards because there are psychic
centres,
chakras, in the palms of the hands which are able to send out energy.
and so, we are conditioning this energy with the thought and visualisation of the Blessings,
the destination of these Blessings, for example, the Mother Earth,
or the Mighty Sun, those are two of the Blessings,
and then conditioning it with those visualisations with our feeling and with our thought
and send it outwards in a very dynamic way.
We pray in a dynamic way, audibly.
It can be done silently but audibly we are praying in this somewhat dynamic way because
we care,
because we mean what we are saying.
And we mean it in a very deep and dramatic way.
What is also striking is then is that I've had a little bit of experience practicing
that type of prayer in doing the Twelve Blessings myself,
and there's a different quality of experience right during the time, and following, when
one is doing these practices,
the type of dynamic prayer that is unlike anything else I have ever come across.
Because there's instruction in this process which teachings you to draw the transformation
energy from the Earth,
and also the energy from above,
and to use, not only your hands, but your own field,
starting with your Heart, to send this energy forth.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Absolutely. You charge yourself up with White Light coming down and
a Violet Flame coming up, filling one's aura, as you correctly say.
And this is really what we're all here to do.
It's, for want of a better term, the manipulation of energy.
It's taking energy from a Divine Cosmic Source, drawing it down and bringing it onto this
physical plane of Earth where,
I don't think anybody needs to be told, it's very much needed.
And Dr. King has actually said,
The only energy crisis which exists, on this Earth, is the Spiritual Energy Crisis.
And he says that once we put that one right then no other physical energy shortage can
exist.
But we've got the cart and horse back to front.
The whole understanding of spiritual energy is relegated to the lowest rung of the ladder,
virtually, and we've got to bring it out.
And that's where the Aetherius Society is as active, probably as any other groups, certainly
of it's size, in the world today.
Well, it's very interesting, the relevance, as you mention,
where our attention seems to be focused with energy in a place of such scarcity...
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Indeed, well said.
And Dr. King's message and work of the Aetherius Society is to really help us realise that's
not the true nature.
That's it's really an abundant source of energy that's what's most important.
And it's something that is accessible that we can have a direct hand in magnifying.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Absolutely
It's just such a profound, profound message.
And very, very timely.
And this leads us right into the main subject for our interview because we've talked about
this a few months back
and said, yes, I think you actually suggested the idea, to talk about how this magnification
of this abundant Blessing Energy is also...
our work of this is assisted with a process that occurs several times a year with something
which is referred to as Satellite No. 3.
So, I would really love to hear your description about how this process works and we can collaborate,
and how this Cosmic Energy actually collaborates with us?
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Absolutely.
Satellite No. 3 is an extra-terrestrial craft.
Quite large in size. At least several miles in length I believe that has come into orbit
of this Earth at various times.
At least since 1955.
It's feasibly come to Earth in previous civilisations
but in our present civilisation it's been coming into orbit, for the first known time,
since May 28th, 1955, and at various times throughout each year.
And anybody can literally knowingly, or not, can in-fact, and does, co-operate with Satellite
No. 3.
It's purpose is to make available to humanity a more intense source of, literally again,
spiritual energy.
To which extend it magnifies all spiritual actions that anybody consciously, or not,
is engaged in, by a factor of 3,000 times.
Such is it's intensity.
And anybody can use, or attract this energy, when they engage in these spiritual practices
during the time the craft is in orbit.
Which is why we, in the Aetherius Society, are especially active during these periods.
It is due to come to Earth on April 18th, that's 12 midnight, GMT, for us here on the
west coast of California, that will be 4.00 pm on April 18th.
And we, at that time, for that first hour, we will have people around the world who are
engaged in what we call Power Circles,
using primarily the Twelve Blessings all in unison around the world,
whatever time of day or night. for that first four.
And, as I mentioned, for this next or upcoming 'Spiritual Push' we will continue with the
Twelve Blessings continuously around the world over the next following seven days.
That is one of the ways in which we co-operate with Satellite No. 3.
And actually, if it's 12 am on the 18th Greenwich Mean Time...
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Actually, it's the beginning of the 19th.
The beginning of the 19th Greenwich Mean time.
I see.
And anybody...
I advice people to tune into that time and see if you can't detect some difference because
when one is consciously aware of it,
one can certainly very subtly notice a difference in the energy,
and it is heightened,
and it is refined,
and it's priceless in it's value really.
We're here to use it.
To help steer humanity, if you like, away from the brink of it's own destruction in
certain ways, and in a variety of ways.
Well this is a wonderful thing to go a little further into because I find your own personal
experience,
and the experience of any spiritual person, and any mystically-oriented person to be a
great fountain of blessing.
You know, because you have some reflection on how these things actually impact, not only
your own life,
but that of those around you,
and I know for years, over 20 years, If I recall correctly, you've been doing these
practices and that you've been aware of these 'Spiritual Pushes'...
I'd be very interested in hearing your own feelings, your own account, of things you've
noticed, things that you've experienced happening during these 'Spiritual Pushes'.
Was there anything you could share with us about your own experiences related to this?
(Rev. Paul Nugent) There is. I have to say the key, being involved with the Aetherius
Society, as you correctly say, for just over 20 years
one comes in just a little bit, sort of just, on the rough side, in terms of subtly of appreciation
from a psychic point of view,
but through continued experience and exposure and practice to the teachings of the Aetherius
Society,
and with a growing awareness and deeper sense of the reality of these things,
then, in recent years, the energy from Satellite No. 3 has become much more perceptible.
And what I've done is that I've found that I've increased my own spiritual practices
during the time of Satellite No. 3.
Because, in a sense, it almost...
it's certainly a duty when one knows of Satellite No. 3 and it's importance,
and when I say a duty I mean a self-imposed duty.
It's a very much, self-imposed spiritual duty, through a greater realisation of the value
of this energy, and it's purpose and what it is doing for the world as a whole.
Because, it is, as a I say, a self-imposed duty.
I was almost going to say a crime not to use it, but I don't want to scare people away!
But trust me, I can hold my hand up and say I am guilty.
But what I have noticed coming back to your question is the truth of it.
And in the truth of it to paraphrase Nietzsche is the beauty of it.
Because it becomes incredibly, not just mind opening, it becomes heart and soul opening
to a greater cosmic awareness.
It's, as I put it, it's chipping away, and chipping away in a quite a strong way, at
Enlightenment.
One is chipping away, seriously, at Enlightenment.
And that, on the one hand is actually quite a scary thing but, more so, an incredibly
beautiful thing.
And because one is being exposed to the reality of being, the reality of being, in a far greater
cosmic context than hitherto before ever been exposed to on this Planet.
And part of this change, and it's not just me, it's people all around the world who are
opening to this greater realisation,
it is in very large part, I would have to say, to situations such as Satellite No. 3
which for the last 50 odd years has been re-repeatedly coming back into our orbit
and sending down these uplifting, higher vibrational energies,
that we can all use.
And bit-by-bit it is helping to raise the consciousness of the world.
I know that there are periods throughout the year, for varying lengths, that Satellite
No. 3 comes.
I was wondering if Dr. King ever gave any explanation, or indicted, if he had any insight
about what the timing represents, or what it is related to when Satellite No.3 comes?
I don't think so.
One thing that....
Or a couple of things about Satellite No. 3, I think the Masters...
one difference between the Masters and the human race is the sense that they do everything
under the law of karma....
they obey the law,
they are fully conscious of the Law of Karma, as you sow, so shall you reap.
And they don't overstep the Law of Karma.
I mean people say, 'Why don't UFO's land openly on Earth, come amongst us and change the whole
situation?'
The answer to that very simple question is because our Karma does not allow that, at
this time.
As and when we become more Peaceful as a society,
more open to the existence of these, for want of a better term, extra-terrestrial intelligences,
then they will be able to,
and when we welcome them,
rather than be in fear or denial of them,
then they will be more able to come openly among us.
So, Satellite No. 3 is only able to come into orbit of the Earth as much as out Karma allows.
Which is obviously not the full amount of time, for 365 days of the year.
That having been said...
and more to the point, we could not absorb all of the energy which is made available
during that time....
but that having been said, my understanding is that we are extremely fortunate to have
Satellite No. 3 as much as we do.
Because we have literally been saved by Cosmic Intelligences time and time again...
and there will come a Karmic reckoning for the human race...
we will, by the Law of Karma, need to repay.
But, I say that, again, not in the sort of fearful way but more in the sense that through
realisation,
through our own greater realisation of what we owe to this Earth which we have completely
taken,
since coming to this Planet millions of years ago, which we have taken, essentially very
much, totally for granted.
If we want to take the oil, we take the oil.
If we want to drop an atom bomb, we'll drop an atom bomb.
The trillions of tonnes of bombs that were dropped during the second world war, we do
it, without ever thinking of the threat to this Planet, as a Being.
And yet it is this very Earth, which at it's Logos, is a living Being.
Has sustained the human race for all these millions of years.
There is a Karmic Repayment that has to be made.
And, when we were talking earlier, you asked me to, sort of, mention something that the
Aetherius Society has been involved with recently.
Well, I mentioned earlier on in our conversation that the Aetherius Society, besides it's Cosmic
Teaching is also engaged in what we call Cosmic Missions.
And this past weekend the Aetherius Society participated in such a Cosmic Mission that
we call Operation Sunbeam.
This is a Mission that was devised by Dr. king back in the 1960's.
We have now performed just over 660 phases, 664 I think, to be exact, of Operation Sunbeam,
in which the Aetherius Society, on behalf of humanity as a whole gives spiritual energy
to the Logos of the Planet.
This is a highly complex procedure.
Involves advanced radionic apparatus.
And this is done by sending energy through Psychic Centres of the Planet.
As I mentioned, we have Psychic Centres in the palms of our hands, and of course, the
major ones up and down the spine.
Well, so too does the Earth have Psychic Centres through which energy flows.
And in this complex procedure of Operation Sunbeam we are able to offer a token of thankfulness
of behalf of the human race
to the Logos of the Planet for giving us the sustenance
and this refuge in space which She has given to us for all of these millions of years.
And just occurred this last weekend, you were just saying....
(Rev. Paul Nugent) The last few phases were performed this last weekend.
And does that occur at regular intervals each year?
(Rev. Paul Nugent) About 16 such phases each year that are held, in I have to say, classified
locations, throughout the year.
So, there's just a selected few members of the Aetherius Society that would attend such
an event?
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Yes, your correct in that of the extent that we have a team of Initiates
people who have been in the Aetherius Society for many years who attend a certain level
within the organisation, on our staff team,
who make up the Operation Sunbeam Team who set up the equipment that are on each particular
phase.
But then, after each phase is held we always have throughout the Aetherius Society a Service
of Thankfulness for that phase.
And all of our members are invited.
And these are incredibly powerful services which, in their own metaphysical way, touch
upon the Mission Itself.
Well, I've been imagining that one of the things that Dr King mentions is that there
are reverberations,
that there are effects, and that there's always, again, according to the Law of Karma, when
we make a gesture,
even if it's small, in whatever way we can, there is according to that Law of Karma,
there is a response, there is a reply, that comes back,
usually greatly magnified.
So, I remember some of the things I've heard him say in his writings that indicate this.
I'm just interested to know, it sounds to me when you mention this thanksgiving ceremony
which happens as well,
I'm imagining there's also an acknowledgement,
or maybe even the experience of some of that energy,
some of that blessing coming back to the Earth, to the people of the Earth, in reply to this
operation?
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Absolutely, absolutely. As you sow, so shall you reap.
Exactly.
In fact, I mentioned, of course, that Operation Sunbeam, this method of giving energy as a
token of thanks to the Center of the Earth, is a Cosmic Mission.
Which is therefore touched,
involved by Masters from beyond this Earth.
In Operation Sunbeam there are such Masters who perform the major aspects of this Mission.
And in fact, back in 1995, they made a statement through Dr. King that Operation Sunbeam is
slowing the movement of the tectonic plates.
And more recently, I think it was in around 1999 to 2000 researchers,
scientists came to the discovery that that is exactly what is happening, without them
being able to understand why.
There is this slowing in movement of these plates.
They're expecting earthquakes to happen.
These earthquakes, instead of, as we normally understand, these earthquakes,
particularly the large ones happening in just a matter of a few seconds,
are actually being spread out over a very prolonged period of time.
And so, therefore we are not experiencing the type of upheaval that we refer to as natural
disasters to the karmic extent we should.
And this is...
one can certainly suggest....
is a response, a manifestation, karmic reaction to Missions such as Operation Sunbeam.
And that emphasizes right there it's importance to the world as a whole.
Absolutely.
And this is only one aspect, important aspect,
but only one aspect of the many different forms of Service and Blessing of this type
to the Earth and to humanity,
that the Aetherius Society has been involved in.
If I remember correctly there was another one,
very much related to what you're saying now, a different project....what is Bluewater?
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Operation Bluewater, yes, that was a Mission that was concluded back
in 1964.
Well, that's very relevant also to California because it was specifically to help relieve
the potential catastrophic earthquake....
(Rev. Paul Nugent) That's right. There would have been otherwise a very catastrophic earthquake
right up the west coast of the United States.
What I do want to say, just in terms of what you were just partially saying there, about
others...
we can all be involved in giving energy back to the Earth, in various ways.
And again, as a I said before, the Aetherius Society is at the deep end of the swimming
pool.
There is still the rest of the swimming pool and that is not to discount what other individuals
and organisations are doing.
It's just, again I would argue, that the work of the Aetherius Society is, with things like
Operation Sunbeam, and Operation Bluewater,
is very much at the deep end of helping to bring about the kind of change, and transformation,
which has to come to this Earth,
to the consciousness s of humanity.
It's inevitable. It's waiting to burst.
Well, one of the things that you mention earlier.
That gets asked sometimes is 'Why aren't Spiritual Masters, and these highly evolved Extra-terrestrials,
why are they not helping us?'
I think the story of the Aetherius Society, and I'm sure everyone in the Aetherius Society
realises this,
this story of the Aetherius Society illustrates clearly that there is intervention and to
some degrees visitation.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Yes, far more than people realise or understand. But it's incredibly
subtle.
These Masters are very elevated and advanced.
They are not crude and blundering.
Their actions are very, very subtle.
They could be on a different dimension in the same room performing some manipulation
and to us, ordinary sense, would not be able to detect that.
Well, it's very striking again, very striking, set of teachings,
of very engaging story and history
especially considering the very small and humble beginnings of the work being done simply
by Dr. King, as a young man doing his mediation and yoga practices.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Absolutely right.
It's very surprising. Very staggering.
That something that started that simply...
and especially in that time...
that still gets me.
This was something which happened in the 1950's and it's not surprising all though that you
would hear these types of concepts and relationships being pointed out today.
There's something amazing that in that 50 years we've become much more familiar and
open to the ideas that were being expressed then.
It was a much different time.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Absolutely.
And in large part, thanks to the individuals such as Dr. King himself.
But, also, as a I say, thanks to actions, interventions, by Satellite No. 3, for one.
Well, it is very striking to me that we are at the place where we're at...
you know, there are many challenges that we're facing but the fact that we have as many people
who are,
or at least to some degree aware,
many more people are interested and willing to participate in the activity of blessing
and actually tying to do something concrete in a manner of service to try and help one
another,
and help humanity and help the Earth,
is really striking to me, that there is that much interest.
Of course, we have a long way to go.
But the fact that we have this much activity along these lines as we do is a wonderful
thing.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) I would agree.
One of the things that's also part of the story
and I'd love to get into this in another interview sometime in the future is one of the things
that Dr. King spoke about openly
as far back as the late 50's or early 60's was that we would eventually have direct help
and there would be another teacher who would come...
a Master who would come and apparently he would be a full grown adult who would come
from another world to help guide us.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Evidently, an extra-terrestrial Being yes.
Not born in obscurity like Jesus or others but would come as a full grown adult with
all the powers, by the way.
Yes, this was a message given to Dr King on May 23rd 1958 while in a sacred place actually.
We refer to it as a Holy Mountain in Cornwall in South-west England.
And we refer to it as The Lord's Declaration.
And yes, it was said at the time there will come shortly come anther among us.
The implications of that full text are, at least to my understanding of it, that this
Master will come at a time of threatened conflict on this Earth.
And yes, his magic will be greater than the combined materialistic might of all the armies.
So, that is something which we can all expect to happen at some point.
We don't know exactly when.
Again it depends to a large extent on the karma of the human race.
But certainly we do believe that such an Avatar is coming and the word used was 'Shortly'
to Earth.
Of course, their term 'shortly' is perhaps a little different to our own.
Well, and the message very strongly from Dr. King and the Aetherius Society has very consistently
been all along that we can't expect to have this happen for
us,
or without our participation,
this would be something that would be happening very much as a response,
a natural next step to our growth, spiritually, if I understand that correctly.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) For those who are ready.
For those who are ready to live as we all should have already been living on this Earth
in the sense of shared co-operation and experience
and, in no shape or form, or rather not in the sense of a materialistic personal greed
but in the sense of spiritual evolution.
For those who are ready to live upon Earth in such a way then those people will have
the opportunity to do that.
For those who are not.
Who choose not to recognise or accept this higher teaching,
they will be karmically reborn onto another world to continue their own evolutionary cycle.
Yeah, it's a very compelling message for those that have a heart to feel and know to receive
It's very, very interesting.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Thank you and thank you for being able to appreciate that but it does
take genuine seeking.
You have to be...
you know...you're soul has to be genuinely searching for spiritual answers and be willing
to....
and when one gets those spiritual answers to investigate them.
And it took me actually two years....
and I refer to myself as having a relatively slow....
but it took me two years of checking out the Aetherius Society
but at every step of the way I couldn't deny the teachings and it's practices
and more importantly it was doing the kind of work that I knew had to be done and wanted
to be involved with.
But it is very much for the genuine, serious seeker who wants greater Cosmic Realisation
and just as importantly,
wants to help the world as a whole.
Well, you mentioned earlier that the next 'Spiritual Push' with the assistance of Satellite
No. 3 is due to begin in Midnight April 19th.
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Well, yes. That's Greenwich Mean Time which is 4.00 pm Pacific Daylight
Time here in California.
In what would be 7.00 pm on the east coast of April the 18th.
That's when it will begin and that's when they'll be many people around the world operating
to that first hour.
We in the Aetherius Society will continue non-stop for seven days using the practices
of the Twelve Blessings
and prayers of the Twelve Blessings which takes about 15 minutes to perform a service
of the Twelve Blessings
and various other activities throughout the entire 'Spiritual Push' as we call it which
will end on May 23rd.
I see, I see, yes.
Because you'll have the Twelve Blessings going through the first seven days....
(Rev. Paul Nugent) Non-stop yes. Someone, at least one individual, somewhere around
the world, at any given moment.
And others who would desire can participate in that if they know how to perform the Twelve
Blessings.
Absolutely.
It's a bit like riding a bicycle. You need to learn how to stay upright and sit on the
saddle and turn the wheels and all the rest of it.
But, once one gets the hang of it. Boy, it's a beautiful ride!
They can find out more just simply by getting hold of a copy of the book that contains the
text of the Twelve Blessings
which is available from the Aetherius Society.
That's available via your website?
The link will be on the website yes, and we'll just give it to everybody really quickly it's
aetherius.org
And we have a free phone 800 800 1354 for anybody who would like to receive more information
about the Twelve Blessings and about the Aetherius Society in general.
That's wonderful.
Well it is a pure pleasure as every time I've had the pleasure to talk with you Reverend
Paul
and I just can't say thank you enough for your assistance and your insight with this
interview
but also just in general for the work of the Aetherius Society
because it just seems extremely important and resonant with so many other things I've
found to be of great value in my own experience and exploration.
Well, it's a pleasure to speak with yourself and look forward to the next time.
Very good and yeah lets just give it some thought and think of something that would
be a suitable subject for another discussion.
There's a lot more to plunge here let me tell you!
I look forward to it, thank you.
Alright, bye bye.
