1999 - WEEK 42 Post No. keys-l: /1999-10-18/7670 From: Laura Subject: Re: Comments "Next Laura asks if the Christ is on the earth now in a physical body?" "Yes He is. He and other Masters reside in a place hidden from public knowledge and has worked with humanity over the past two thousand years. He is linked to the Ancient of Days and through that link has a feel for what is going on throughout the entire planet. He does some of His work in the same way we are attempting through the New Jerusalem meditation and some of you will meet Him there before you meet him here." "When and if the Christ comes in a physical body as well as the overshadowing He will merely reveal himself as He is now. There is not a group on the earth, however, that is ready to accept a regular looking human who is introduced as the second coming of Christ. That is part of our purpose - to prepare such a group." So in other words, Christ is already here in the form he wishes to be seen in and will be seen in the second coming. Once the molecule is strongly united, the Christ will reveal (him?)self. Is the Christ in his current form divinely possessed, or just a Master in his own right, waiting for the 'overshadowing', as you call it? Is what we are working for - our ultimate short-term goal - the divine possession or overshadowing of the Christ? "The thing to remember about the Song is the preservation of its meaning. Other languages may give some of the words a different twist, but the basic message and meaning of the Song can be fairly exactly preserved." Okay, that makes sense. I was just concerned because I know that many on the list are really into the whole DO NOT CHANGE THE WORDING OF THE SONG kinda thing, and I didn't know how that would apply to another language. If I can get a hold of a friend of mine in Columbia, I'll see if he'd be willing to translate it into Spanish for the rest of us. I've received an email from (Anni, I think?? I'm sorry.. I have forgotten who sent it to me) a member of the list, expressing their interest in translating the song into their native language, Danish. Oohhhh.. Danish.. boy that sounds good. Low carb diets are no fun. But back to the topic, I still think that the English version of the song, if at all possible, should not be changed, because as soon as the first little revision to an 'and' or an 'in' here and there happens, then the larger words may start shifting and changing and finally the song as a whole is changed altogether. Not a good thing :) Laura Post No. keys-l: /1999-10-18/7671 From: Laura Subject: Thinking Big Okay, peeps. I'm not sure why this list has been so quiet lately.. it seems that discussion has dropped off sharply over the past three weeks. I'm not pointing fingers, naming names, nor do I want to speculate as to why this is happening. Perhaps people are losing interest. I'm not. As a matter of fact, I'm thinking big, which I tend to do quite often, and I came up with a GREAT IDEA and I don't know why it's not being worked on yet. I mentioned to the list a few days ago, and have had a few responses, but I'm going to post this officially to the entire list and will hopefully stir a few people up. I know this list is international. We have people from all over the world on this list. This means that there are many languages represented on this list, and quite a few of you are fluent in more than English. So... I would like to know how many of you would volunteer your time for one or both of the following projects: 1. Translating the Song of the 144,000 into another language. It is important that this translation be as accurate and as close to the original as possible, for the spirit needs to be conveyed accurately. 2. And this is the big one.. translating the Immortal into another language? The Immortal is a huge project. After all, there are two books of the Immortal! Anyone who took on this project would need to see it out to the finish. I can safely say that NONE of us have the time, energy and resources to devote every waking moment to working on this, but by golly, a little bit at time WILL get the job done eventually. 15 minutes.. 30 minutes.. 10 minutes a night will _eventually_ get the translation done. It's a project worthy of a monk, to tell you the truth. I'd be the first in line to start translating if I knew how to fluently speak another language, but I'm doing my part in contacting some international friends of mine and asking for their assistance. So what do you say? By the way.. you can reply directly to the list or you can email me at runewitch@hotmail.com. We are looking for any and all languages (Sanskrit, Hyroglyphics, Latin and Greek may need to wait, though), because this word needs to be spread to the world. I will also be posting hopefully by the end of the day a list of all the people who have volunteered in some way, shape, form or manner to do something involving the CWNN - Council With No Name. If you have something you'd like to contribute (and we can use anything), email me or post to the list and let us know. So are ya going to sit and think, people, or are you going to grab hold of the reins for the ride of your life? :) Laura Post No. keys-l: /1999-10-18/7672 From: "Aley" Subject: Re: Thinking Big You are incredible Laura, utterly incredible Love, Aley Post No. keys-l: /1999-10-18/7673 From: Mark D Williams Subject: OT - Talking to God Talking To God --------------- A man was taking it easy, laying on the grass and looking up at the clouds. He was identifying shapes when he decided to talk to God. "God", he said, "how long is a million years?" God answered, "In my frame of reference, it's about a minute." The man asked, "God, how much is a million dollars?" God answered, "To me, it's a penny." The man then asked, "God, can I have a penny?" God answered, "In a minute." Post No. keys-l: /1999-10-18/7674 From: Brian Weis Subject: OT - Interview with God Interview with God I dreamed I had an interview with God. "Come in," God said. "So, you would like to interview Me?" "If you have the time," I said. God smiled and said: "My time is eternity and is enough to do everything; what questions do you have in mind to ask me?" "What surprises you most about mankind?" God answered: "That they get bored of being children, are in a rush to grow up, and then long to be children again. That they lose their health to make money and then lose their money to restore their health. That by thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the present, such that they live neither for the present nor the future. That they live as if they will never die, and they die as if they had never lived..." God's hands took mine and we were silent for while and then I asked... "As a parent, what are some of life's lessons you want your children to learn?" God replied with a smile: "To learn that they cannot make anyone love them. What they can do is to let themselves be loved. To learn that what is most valuable is not what they have in their lives, but who they have in their lives. To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others. All will be judged individually on their own merits, not as a group on a comparison basis! To learn that a rich person is not the one who has the most, but is one who needs the least. To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in persons we love, and that it takes many years to heal them. To learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness. To learn that there are persons that love them dearly, but simply do not know how to express or show their feelings. To learn that money can buy everything but happiness. To learn that two people can look at the same thing and see it totally different. To learn that a true friend is someone who knows everything about them... and likes them anyway. To learn that it is not always enough that they be forgiven by others, but that they have to forgive themselves. "I sat there for awhile enjoying the moment. I thanked Him for his time and for all that He has done for me and my family, and He replied, "Anytime. I'm here 24 hours a day. All you have to do is ask for me, and I'll answer." --Author Unknown Post No. keys-l: /1999-10-18/7675 From: "Anni West" Subject: Re: Thinking BIG Hi Laura and all, Laura wrote: "I would like to know how many of you would volunteer your time for one or both of the following projects: 1.

Anni: I volunteer to translate the Song of the 144,000 into Danish - in fact I am almost done :-)) I have also started translating "The Immortal" Book 1 since many Danes do not read fluently in English - but you are SOOOOOO right, Laura - it is a huge project and it will take some time.

Anni: A long time ago I made the promoting web page for "The Immortal" because I certainly would like to see as many as possible help spreading the word - if this page can be of any value to CWNN please let me know and I'll be happy to help.
