Don Elkins
Carla would like to know why she smells the incense at various times during the day in various places?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra

Carla has spent a lifetime in dedication to service.

This has brought her to this nexus in space/time with the conscious and unconscious distortion towards service, with the further conscious distortion towards service by communication.

Each time that we perform this working our social memory complex vibrational distortion meshes more firmly with this instrument’s unconscious distortions towards service.

Thus we are becoming a part of this instrument’s vibratory complex and it a part of ours.

This occurs upon the unconscious level, the level whereby the mind has gone down through to the roots of consciousness which you may call cosmic.

This instrument is not consciously aware of this slow changing of the meshing vibratory complex. However, as the dedication on both levels continues, and the workings continue, there are signals sent from the unconscious in a symbolic manner.

Because this instrument is extremely keen in its sense of smell this association takes place unconsciously, and the thought-form of this odor is witnessed by the entity.

Don Elkins
She would like to know why she feels more healthy now after she does these sessions. She’s generally feeling more healthy as time goes on.
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra

This is a function of free will of the entity. This entity has, for many of your years, prayed a certain set of sound vibration complexes before opening to communication.

Before the trance state was achieved this prayer remained within the conscious portion of the mind complex and, though helpful, was not as effective as the consequence of this prayer, as you would call this vibrational sound complex, which then goes directly into the unconscious level, thus more critically affecting the communication from the spiritual complex.

Also, this entity has begun, due to this working, to accept certain limitations which it placed upon itself in order to set the stage for services such as it now performs. This also is an aid to re-aligning the distortions of the physical complex with regard to pain.

Don Elkins

Thank you. I’ll ask a couple of questions to clear up the end of the second cycle— the second major cycle. And then we’ll go on to the third and last of the major cycles.

Can you tell me the life span, the average life span, at the end of the second major cycle?

Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
By the end of the second major cycle, the life span was with certain variations among geographically isolated peoples more in harmony with intelligent energy and less bellicose.
Don Elkins
Can you tell me the length of that—average span in years at the end of the second major cycle?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra

The average is perhaps misleading.

It was approximately 35-40 years in one incarnation with the possibility not considered abnormal of a life span approaching one hundred of your years.

Don Elkins
Then can I assume then that this drastic drop from 700-year life span to one—less than one hundred years in length during this second 25,000-year period was because of an intensification of a… of a condition of lack of service to others? Is this correct?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra

This is in part correct.

By the end of the second cycle, the Law of Responsibility had begun to be effectuated by the increasing ability of entities to grasp those lessons which there are to be learned in this density.

Thus, entities had discovered many ways to indicate a bellicose nature, not only as tribes or what you call nations but in personal relationships, each with the other, the concept of barter having given way in many cases to the concept of money; also, the concept of ownership having won ascendancy over the concept of non-ownership on an individual or group basis.

Each entity then was offered many more subtle ways of demonstrating either service towards others or service to self with the distortion of the manipulation of others. As each lesson was understood, those lessons of sharing, of giving, of receiving in free gratitude—each lesson could be rejected in practice.

Without demonstrating the fruits of such learn/teaching the life span became greatly reduced, for the ways of honor/duty were not being accepted.

Don Elkins
Would this shortened life span help the entity in any way in that he would have more times in between incarnations to review his mistakes, or would this shortened life span hinder him?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra

Both are correct. The shortening of the life span is a distortion of the Law of One which suggests that an entity not receive more experience in more intensity than it may bear. This is only in effect upon an individual level and does not hold sway over planetary or social complexes.

Thus the shortened life span is due to the necessity for removing an entity from the intensity of experience which ensues when wisdom and love are, having been rejected, reflected back into the consciousness of the Creator without being accepted as part of the self, this then causing the entity to have the need for healing and for much evaluation of the incarnation.

The incorrectness lies in the truth that, given appropriate circumstances, a much longer incarnation in your space/time continuum is very helpful for continuing this intensive work until conclusions have been reached through the catalytic process.

Don Elkins
You spoke of the South American group that was harvestable at the end of the second cycle. How long was their average life span at the end of the second cycle?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
This isolated group had achieved life spans stretching upwards towards the nine-hundred-year life span appropriate to this density.
Don Elkins
Then I’m assuming the planetary action that we’re experiencing now, which shortens, it seems, all life spans here, was not strong enough at that time to affect them and shorten their life span regardless. Is this correct?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
This is correct. It is well to remember that at that nexus in space/time great isolation was possible.
Don Elkins
About how many people populated the Earth totally at that time; that is, incarnated in the physical at any one time?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
I am assuming that you intend to query regarding the number of incarnate mind/body/spirit complexes at the end of the second major cycle, this number being approximately three hundred forty-five thousand entities.
Don Elkins
Approximately how many were harvestable out of the total number?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
There were approximately one hundred fifty entities harvestable.
Don Elkins
A very small number. Then as the next cycle started… are these the entities then that stayed to work on the planet?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
These entities were visited by the Confederation and became desirous of remaining in order to aid the planetary consciousness. This is correct.
Don Elkins
What type of visit did the Confederation make to this group of 150 entities?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra

A light being appeared bearing that which may be called a shield of light. It spoke of the oneness and infinity of all creation and of those things which await those ready for harvest. It described in golden words the beauties of love as lived.

It then allowed a telepathic linkage to progressively show those who were interested the plight of third density when seen as a planetary complex. It then left.

Don Elkins
And did all of these entities then decide to stay and help during the next 25,000-year cycle?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
This is correct. As a group they stayed. There were those peripherally associated with this culture which did not stay. However, they were not able to be harvested either and so, beginning at the very highest, shall we say, of the sub-octaves of third density, repeated this density. Many of those who have been of a loving nature are not Wanderers but those of this particular origin of second cycle.
Don Elkins
Are all of these entities still with us in this cycle?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
The entities repeating the third-density major cycle have, in some few cases, been able to leave. These entities have chosen to join their brothers and sisters, as you would call these entities.
Don Elkins
Were any of these entities names that we know from our historical past? That have appeared as incarnated beings we find in our history?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
The one known as the sound vibration complex Saint Augustine is of such a nature. The one known as Saint Teresa of such a nature. The one known as Saint Francis of Assisi of such nature. These entities, being of monastic background, as you would call it, found incarnation in the same type of ambiance appropriate for further learning.
Don Elkins
Well, then, as the cycle terminated 25,000 years ago, what was the reaction of the Confederation to the lack of harvest?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
We became concerned.
Don Elkins
Was any action taken immediately, or did you wait for a call?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
The Council of Saturn acted only in allowing the entry into third density of other mind/body/spirit complexes of third density, not Wanderers, but those who sought further third-density experience. This was done randomly so that free will would not be violated for there was not yet a call.
Don Elkins
Was the next action taken by the Confederation when a call occurred?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
This is correct.
Don Elkins
Who or what group produced this call, and what action was taken by the Confederation?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
The calling was that of Atlanteans. This calling was for what you would call understanding with the distortion towards helping other-selves. The action taken is that which you take part in at this time: the impression of information through channels, as you would call them.
Don Elkins
Was this first calling then at a time before Atlantis became technologically advanced?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
This is basically correct.
Don Elkins
Then did the technological advancement of Atlantis come because of this call? I am assuming the call was answered to bring them the Law of One and the Law of Love as a distortion of the Law of One, but did they also then get technological information that caused them to grow into such a highly technological society?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra

Not at first.

At about the same time as we first appeared in the skies over Egypt and continuing thereafter, other entities of the Confederation appeared unto Atlanteans who had reached a level of philosophical understanding, shall we misuse this word, which was consonant with communication, to encourage and inspire studies in the mystery of unity.

However, requests being made for healing and other understandings, information was passed having to do with crystals and the building of pyramids as well as temples, as you would call them, which were associated with training.

Don Elkins
Was this training the same type of initiatory training that was done with the Egyptians?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
This training was different in that the social complex was more, shall we say, sophisticated and less contradictory and barbarous in its ways of thinking. Therefore the temples were temples of learning rather than the attempt being made to totally separate and put upon a pedestal the healers.
Don Elkins
Then were there what we would call priests trained in these temples?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra

You would not call them priests in the sense of celibacy, of obedience, and of poverty. They were priests in the sense of those devoted to learning.

The difficulties became apparent as those trained in this learning began to attempt to use crystal powers for those things other than healing, as they were involved not only with learning but became involved with what you would call the governmental structure.

Don Elkins
Was all of their information given to them in the way you’re giving our information now, through an instrument such as this instrument?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra
There were visitations from time to time but none of importance in the, shall we say, historical passage of events in your space/time continuum.
Don Elkins

Was it necessary for them to have a unified social complex for these visitations to occur?

What conditions were necessary for these visitations to occur?

Don Elkins
Ra
Ra

There were 2 conditions:

  1. The calling of a group of people whose square overcame the integrated resistance of those unwilling to search or learn
  2. The relative naïveté of those members of the Confederation who felt that direct transfer of information would necessarily be as helpful for Atlanteans as it had been for the Confederation entity.
Don Elkins
These naïve Confederation entities had had the same thing happen to them in the past so they were doing the same thing for the Atlantean entities.
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra

Yes.

We remind you that we are one of the naïve members of that Confederation and are still attempting to recoup the damage for which we feel responsibility.

It is our duty as well as honor to continue with your peoples, therefore, until all traces of the distortions of our teach/learnings have been embraced by their opposite distortions, and balance achieved.

Don Elkins

So many Atlanteans had started going in the direction of the Law of One and living the Law of One for their call to be heard by the Confederation.

This call was heard because, using the Law of Squares, it overrode the opposition of the Atlantean entities that were not calling.

The Confederation then used channels such as we use now for communication and also made contact directly, but this turned out to be a mistake because it was perverted by some of the entities of Atlantis.

Don Elkins
Ra
Ra

This is correct with one exception. There is only one law. That is the Law of One.

Other so-called laws are distortions of this law, some of them primal and most important for progress to be understood. However, it is well that each so-called law, which we also call “way,” be understood as a distortion rather than a law. There is no multiplicity to the Law of One.

Don Elkins
What was the average life span of the Atlantean population?
Don Elkins
Ra
Ra

The average life span is misleading.

The Atlanteans were, in the early part of their cultural experience, used to life spans from 70-140 years.

Due to increasing desire for power, the lifetime decreased rapidly in the later stages of this civilization and, thus, the healing and rejuvenating information was requested.
