I like very much what you said, Cam, about public discussion. I agree completely, particularly in matters of spirit and philosophy. If I may add a very low-brow analogy to answer Krazy Kat's fears about spreading a cult. Ever listen to the late-night radio show hosted by Art Bell ("Coast to Coast AM")? He is famous (or infamous) for having guests who talk about, do research on, etc, UFOs, aliens, crop circles, the paranormal, spiritual matters, out of body experiences, etc, etc.. No matter how far-out the guests may sound (and sometimes they are astounding) Art engages them in discussion. Just as there is strength and wisdom in numbers, there is a similar wisdom in not dismissing people or ideas out of hand. Sometimes the most challenging discussions are the most interesting. Plus, strong ideas tend to hold up well under discussion while the weaker ones, well....

> paulaFriends;
A tenant of mine is an engineer at General Electric and works in the heat transferr department. He told me that if the jet engine does not follow the heat tranfer laws , then it could explode and General Electric does not want to take the chance of the people on the plane being killed. Ther are also laws of living that I have found that if we violate them, we are taking a chance on being killed or made to suffer. I am telling what I have experianced. And those of you that use slander and defamation against me, such as accusing me of trying to bring you into a cult, are playing an ancient game that has been around since the beggining of time. I am jewish and we read the Torah and the first book talks about the first people. God spoke to them and told them not to eat of the friut or they would die. The Father of all Lies, disguised as a snake, said to them not to believe God. They ate of the friut of the tree and died. When I recieved The Crown of Life I was told that people would use lies to defame me and equate me with a cult, and mock me and tell others not to listen to me. Of the people that I know that have recieved the Crown of Life, I know of many of them that were addicted to drugs and they are now free from their addiction and can live a joyous life. I know of many that had marriges that were going to end up in divorce and now thry are together and blissful. I know of students that were going to be expelled from their collge because of drinking and drugs and now they have graduated and did not have their drugs destroy their intellegence. I know of crimanals that are now free for they stopped their crimes. I know of many that were going to take their own lives and now they are alive. When you recieve the Crown of Life you will be able to overcome . If you are not suffering, then reject this opportunity to obtain the Crown of Life. It is only the people that are suffering that will be able to understand what I am saying. When I came back on the Road and saw the world again, I saw it through new eyes. The world was all new. Evrything was in a whole new perspective. I was a whole new person. I waas free from the slavery. You can also be set free. You can have a whole new life. But it is only for those that can not free themselves. They need help. They are suffering .Let my people go.

Lou Buddy! How are you!
I was just at the City of Peace the other day and you are absolutely right - it is freakin fantastic. No more depression, no more meds, no more dysfunctional family, no more nothin but sugar and spice and everything nice! I dropped your name when I got there, so I think you'll get credit for my showing up.
Thanks for letting us on this board know about those gates, quite the trip (fire, an abyss, white horses) but well worth it. I highly recommend the place. Well, I guess that's all. Thanks Lou!

Lou - The only differnce between a cult and a religion is approximately one hundred years. It is nice to have beliefs; and if something works for you, then go for it. There is no need to couch the facts in vagueries and parables. If the psychological reasoning behind the story is sound, then there is no need to dress it up.
Also, another ploy of religion is play the martyr when others do not follow their mode of thinking. We are all different and have out own beliefs. Your entire theory could be stated in one post and in plain English, and in point form (eg. 1. forgive others, 2. be kind, etc.). Suspense is best left to mystery novels, IMO.

I am not giving a theory. I am telling what I experianced. It is not a mystery for I am willing to reveal all that I experianced. I can only write what I have experianced. I am only telling you that I have experianced people mocking me when I spoke about the Road, they yelled out to the people that were listening to not listen to me. They gave all kinds of reasons why people should not listen to me. They used the ploy of associating me with bad people. They said that I hung around with prostitutes and criminals. They used the ploy that I was using the wrong "form" in what I was saying. They used the ploy that since there are fairy tales written , then what I was saying is also a fairy tale. They used the ploy that I was trying to get them into a cult. They used the ploys that have been directed at me on this board 30 years ago. It is nothing new to me. Thiis happenend to me over 30 years ago. Today that experiance is more vivid to me for I have seen more suffering. It is only those that are suffering that can understand what I am writing. Let them hear.

While doing some research on the religious group Aum Shinrikyo who are now called Aleph, and who would unfortunately be best known for their release of the nerve gas sarin on the tokyo subway system, (a change in leadership and hence overall policy on violence led them to change their name to Aleph), i came across this page that profiles major religious movements, including what some might call 'cults' or 'sects'... Its fairly thorough, and an interesting read all around if you like to familiarise yourself with the world's religions.here's the link:

You say that you are not affiliated with any group, yet you actively attempt to recruit others to join you. Every religious group or ideology has it's progenitor. You seem to fit that role.

Thank you for your post. I am not trying to recruit people to join me in a religion. I am not a member of any group. I am writing what I experianced. I have seen people that have had their lives changed and their suffering stopped when they recieved the Crown of Life. My life has gone from death to life. I am a whole new person. There are people that want to confuse and skander and defame an equate what I have experianced as a fairy tale. There are those that wnt to silence me. I am only asking people to taste. If they do not like what they taste, then they do not have to swallow. So far, no one on this board will go past the 3erd Gate. I am waiting for that day.

Everything was light and fairies and elves.
And then a car pulled up and a strange man came out and offered me candy if I would just get in and follow him. I decided that I didnt take candy from strangers and went back to the fairies and elves.JohnD

Maybe worth being sure the energy you are expending is worth it? I stopped being involved in this thread some time ago, and a quick dip back seems to show its still the same ie people trying to discuss his views.
Fine if you want to, of course. But just to say I dont miss it.

Forgive me. I thought that you had turned back for I had not heard from you. then there was a very trying time and I was compelled to tell some of what I saw when the 7th Gate opened. I will tell what happenend after we passedover the Lake of Fire on the way to the 4th gate.

The nature of threads like this is that they can, and have taken on a nature of their own and may veer away from the original poster's content.The problem is, anything that is said is interpreted by the original poster as having some relation to what they originally posted.
I'm with you, I'm making my attempts to back out of this neverending quagmire as quickly as possible... Generaly, my posts in this thread are directed at the group as a whole, not the original poster.

Lou,
I think the wise thing to do at this point is to just tell your story. I have no desire to join you on your journey. I have my own path, with which I am well pleased. But I would hate to see the truth and beauty on your path be overlooked because of a poor presentation. There is truth and beauty on many paths, and certainly forgiveness and caritas, the first two gates, are universal concepts with which few would disagree. If you present the entire path, even if people don't choose to follow it right now, they will have a chance to ponder it and perhaps in time it will move them. But if you keep them dangling, their irritation might drown your message. And people coming to read the archives years from now will have trouble following a story broken up into such a long thread.
