A CALL TO THE MEDIA
by the Ma-ter -, through Benjamin Creme,
12 January 2008
For many years men have awaited,
impatiently to be sure, evidence that Maitreya
does in truth exist, and carries out His work
among us. Why this doubt should for so long
persist is, perhaps, difficult to understand,
given the vast transformations of our world
which have clearly taken place, each one
foretold by Maitreya, and made available to
the public and world media. What prevents the
acceptance -- even as a hypothesis -- that
such a welcome event has indeed transpired?
The media of the world know every facet of
this information, however little they inform
the public of its nature. Many of its
representatives have met Maitreya, have
heard Him speak, and yet stay silent
themselves.
Laws
Why should this be so? What inhibits the
public announcement of this welcome news?
In the main the problem is fear: fear of
ridicule, fear of disbelief; fear of loss,
of their status or jobs; fear that they
are somehow beguiled, that they did not see
what they saw or hear what they heard. It
is easier to set their experiences aside
and to leave it to Maitreya Himself -- if He
does indeed exist -- to come forward and show
the world His factual Presence.
This view, logical enough to those who
thus wait silently, shows little understanding
of the Laws which govern the appearance of a
Teacher of Maitreya's stature.
Many worthy Teachers come into our lives,
do their work, and cause few ripples on the
surface of men's thought and action. They
seldom need forerunners to prepare their
way. Maitreya, however, is the World Teacher,
Head of Hierarchy, and intends to serve as
such for the next world cycle. His impact on
humanity cannot be comprehended. His coming
is a truly momentous happening, which must
be prepared for beforehand, and adequately
explained to men of every station.
The world's media are ideally placed to
acquaint men with the true happenings of
our time. They are looked to for
information, and often guidance, by
millions of people thirsty for the truth,
for knowledge and hope. It behoves the
men and women of the media, men and women
of goodwill, to acquaint *themselves*
with this information, where necessary,
and to serve the public by its serious
introduction. Then will they see
Maitreya openly, ready to show us all
how to set to rights the world.
EUROPEAN CONFERENCE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
by Benjamin Creme
Short extract from an edited version of
the Question and Answer session with Benjamin
Creme from the European Transmission
Meditation Conference 2007, held at
Kerkrade, the Netherlands, in September 2007.
Q. Is it because the media have difficulty
relating our information to the facts that
they do nothing? Is it a lack of facts or
evidence?
A. It is a fact that Nelson Mandela, after
27 years incarceration, was suddenly released
and became the President of the new South
Africa. It is a fact and the prediction
about it was published in *Share
International* [September 1988].
When I held a press conference,
speaking to a group of nearly a hundred
journalists, on 14 May 1982 in Los
Angeles, I gave the whole story and
these journalists were very mixed. Some
were complete fundamentalists in their
own way. Some were totally against it,
but many of them were open. They
clapped several times about the need
for sharing and justice in the world
-- hardheaded journalists who never
clap for anybody. They clapped this
story of mine, this simple story, and
at the end I talked about journalists
coming to London and going through the
motions of looking for Maitreya, and
that He would come forward to them if
they did that.
The BBC had linked this press
conference with a program which was
broadcast at the same time. They
were there on the spot in London
where I said Maitreya was living.
When the A-erican media asked the
BBC what they were doing about it,
the British media said: "Nothing."
The Am-ricans said: "But why not?
It is a fantastic story." The BBC
said: "We know it is a fantastic
story but we are waiting for more
tangible evidence." The "more tangible
evidence" they could only get by
doing what I asked them to do: come
to London and go through the motions
of looking for Maitreya in the Asian
community.
If these journalists had been men
of clout who, having seen Maitreya
would believe, they would speak to
their colleagues and say: "Yes, it
is true. The story is true. I met
him. He is extraordinary." Maitreya
said that would have been enough in
1982.
The media want the information put
in their lap. We put the information
in their lap, but that is not enough.
They want to *see* Maitreya and as
soon as He raises His head above the
parapet they will act.
There are many journalists who met
Maitreya at the Conference which He
held in April 1990 in London. There
were about 40 really im****tant
journalists present. They know it
as well as I do. They will not take
the responsibility of doing anything
about it because their jobs are at
stake. They have wives and family
responsibilities. It is not easy. It
was not easy for John the B-ptist,
either. [End of excerpt]
SERVICE -- A COMPILATION
We present an excerpt from a selection
of quotations on the theme of service --
from Maitreya (*Messages from Maitreya the
C-rist*, and *Maitreya's Teachings -- The
Laws of Life*), Benjamin Creme's M-ster
(*A Ma-ter Speaks*), and Benjamin Creme's
writings.
When you see Me, you will understand
the reasons for your presence in the world.
You are here, My friends, to serve the
Plan of G-d.
You are here, each of you, from love of
your brothers.
You are here, too, to learn, to expand
your knowledge of that Plan and to progress
along the Path.
That is the truth of your existence at
this time.
Take heed, then, of this op****tunity
which I present to you: to share with Me
in My work of succour, to ease My burden,
to unfold the Go- within you and to lead
your brothers to the Light.
(Maitreya, from Message No. 94)
A new world is in the making and requires
the involvement of all: all have a part to
play. (Benjamin Creme's Mas-er, from 'The
Voice of Maitreya')
Be prepared to take hold of the future
with both hands and fa****on a world of
beauty. Eschew despair and create with
joy and love, knowing that the future
stands ready for your embrace. (Benjamin
Creme's Mas-er, from 'The path to the
future')
As soon as a degree of contact with the
s-ul is made, the person begins to desire
to serve the world in some way. The purpose
of the so-l is to serve; that is why it
comes into i-carnation.
(Benjamin Creme, *Maitreya's Mission
Volume Three*)
My aim is to make known My Presence in
the world at the earliest possible moment,
and so begin My Work in the full light of
day.
This will mean strenuous work by those
who now accept that I am among you.
Make known to all that I am here, and
pave smooth My path.

Here are some letters that were sent my way.

Subject: latest wanderer "first contact"
Subject: I just don't know
To: boyne@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
J-dy, in 1998 I was introduced to a man who said
he had been abducted in the 70's. Through
regression and "other means" he told me he had been
in a fight with Ra over Ra's daughter and was
banished to earth where he and he and others built
the pyramids. This man, John C-ark, was introduced
to me by Senator Ben K-ighthorse C-mpbell who said
he thought I really needed to get to know John.
John later said that the three of us were
martians. All of this came from a man who wore a
suit and worked on capitol hill in DC.
At about the same time, a broken down,
alchoholic vietnam vet named Gary, had the most
profound s-iritual awakening that I still can not
believe it even though I saw the transformation
and saw the border-line skid row marine suddenly
accompanied by 5 enormous Indian body guards. He
now carries a staff during Mayan rituals attended
by the former head of the World Bank, Mr.
W-lfens----.
Both the Indian and John warned me to find a
s-iritual path for some great calamity was
coming. That was ten years ago and suddenly I
find myself drawn to websites like yours looking
for answers.
I read some of your site but frankly, I find
it incomprehensible. I feel torn and if the
books you suggest reading are anything like your
website, they will be of no help to me. Just
let me know if you think there could be any
truth to the John Cl-rk story.
.......
Hi S-eve,
Finally finding some time to get back to you.
If this is the same John Cla-k, I find him
listed as a speaker at the upcoming February-
March 2008 International Ufo Congress in
Laughlin Nevada and his bio reads:
----
http://www.ufocongress.com/speakers.html
John Cla-k is an investigative re****ter. He
has written many articles and conducted many
investigations including the attack on the
p-ntagon. John is also a c-ngressional liaison
and a do***entary film maker.
Pozan is a true story about how John Clark
lived in sheer terror for ten years after a
close encounter, while on a camping trip with
family and friends near the Mojave Desert.
Many bizarre things happened to John during
that ten year period including winning an
airplane on a slot machine at a Lake Tahoe
casino and then finding out months later that
a UFO was hovering over the casino where he had
won the airplane!
----
Hypnotic regression can elicit accurate
information though it can also be mixed with
other psychological material, and John's
recollections might be a bit of a mix. My
understanding is that the Mars population
did r-incarnate to Earth several thousand
years ago after they destroyed their
biosphere in w-rs, so many people on Earth
have some vague recollections and a sense of
association with Mars.
These refugees did have much to do with
past periods of earth history, and John may
well have been in Egypt and had conflicts over
a woman, though the part about her being Ra's
daughter may or may not be accurate - one
for the 'who knows?' shelf.
My understanding is that a society that
had lived its human (3rd dimensional) period
on Venus in the far past when it was hospitable
to life, evolved over millions of years
through the 4th, 5th and into the 6th
dimensional developmental stage, and helped
and continues to help Mars and Earth people
during their development.
This society also helped the Egyptians,
and took the name Ra which was the Egyptians'
name for their sun g-d and the closest
conception they had to the concept of unity,
which was a concept the higher dimensional
society hoped to help the Egyptians develop
so as to reduce conflict and make positive
progress.
If you're familiar with the chakras, the
7 main body energy centers, the dimensions
are the same structure, and not only
individuals but also societies and planets
themselves go through these stages of
development over millions of years. Earth
and Earth society are now at the end of their
3D stage, the solar plexus, having to do
with what psychology calls the social self
or ego. Earth is entering the 4th stage, the
heart, having to do with the development of
compassion. Both Freud and human society
have had difficulty moving 'above the belt'!
R-ligions are having the same difficulty
progressing, stuck in the Old T-stament
preoccupation with laws rather than moving into
New Te-tament forgiveness.
In psychology these are described as stages
of moral development - in the earlier stage
people obey moral laws so as to avoid negative
consequences, while in more advanced stages,
individuals have developed an inner moral
sense that can make choices independently of
their social-tribal group, especially when
the group majority may be in the wrong, as
in mob behavior and unjustified wa-.
Not all on Earth are ready to develop
into the 4D stage, just as people take different
time periods to go through the normal stages of
human development of a single lifetime. We know
that humans are capable of acting in a
consistently compassionate manner, but relatively
few do, yet. Those continuing in the 3D stage will
re-ncarnate on other 3D worlds as Earth enters
more fully into 4D.
And up to that point we'll see increasing good
and bad actions. There are people on Earth who
have inc-rnated here from many different planets,
not only from Mars, which makes for more conflict
than a monocultural society.
As to your finding a sp-ritual path, I like
the Indian saying that you ride the horse in the
direction it's going. Once we start seeking, we
tend to find what we need. I don't recommend
books or practices unless I'm asked for material
on a specific subject, and I always tell people
to trust their intuitions. Books and practices
have a way of finding us. And we are all members
of some team, and have what I like to call a
pit crew of unseen beings whose advice we can
keep an ear open for. It's no s-cret the near
future will be uncertain and changing, but
many of us go where we feel called to live
and work and can try to trust that.
Cir***stances arise as people and society
make their choices and we encounter
situations and people our individual
abilities can help.
Point being that we need not plan too much.
That said, my plan is to move to our family's
place on an island in British Columbia and live
as sustainably as possible! Let me know if I
can ramble on about anything more specific.
The main thing is to try to help others as we
feel called to and do no harm, remembering we're
all part of a whole.
Aloha, J-dy
Holy C-ap, that is John alright. How strange
to see his name. I remember him showing me the
Pozan script in 1998. I went into network news
and reality programming after the bar biz and
he spoke to me about shooting something for him.
That's about the time he left and I changed
direction into television. Your response to
my questions are very much appreciated though,
I must say a little beyond the scope of my
knowledge. Perhaps most comforting is the
idea that resources will come available as
needed. I have had a powerful urge to begin
storing supplies and if possible, building a
fortified retreat. I try to not allow the
nagging fear to get in the way of going about
my business but I am afraid for my family
on a physical level but ironically, I feel
as if something positive is happening to me
on sp-ritual level. I at night when I
meditate, I used to feel as if my s-ul
filled up the room and stopped at the ceiling.
Now I go right through the ceiling up into
space and look down on virginia as if I
were in a sattelite.
Two weeks ago, I rushed my 1 year old
daughter to the ER. She was having seizures.
The doctors could not stop them. I went into
meditation and felt myself expanding. It
truly drained me but it worked. I went
from total fear to such a state of serenity
that I was also able to sooth my frantic
wife. I tried to explain to her what I did
but she thinks I am nuts and does not like
speaking about aliens, world change or
other strange topics.
How shall I start educating myself so I
may understand what you are speaking about
as far as 3D, 4D, chakras etc.? Thanks
again.

Hi S-eve,
I found John's book at Amazon.com:
http://www.amazon.com/Pozan-John-Clark/dp/1599758008
Which has a "Search inside this book" feature
I used to search for pages according to words
in interesting chapter titles. Curiously, some
pages were not available "for s-curity reasons",
such as those having to do with the C-A's Dr.
H-tcher. John's experience may have been contact
with negative ETs, with hallmarks of fear,
intimidation and abridgement of his free will,
ie the 'abduction' rather than the positive ET
'contact' scenario in which free will is respected
and any fear is avoided as much as possible.
I know what you mean about wanting to stock
supplies and 'circle the wagons' and many feel
similarly. I've read quite a lot along the
spectrum about this and the most reasonable
suggestion is to live in an area with enough
resources and a small enough population size
that allows people to know and sup****t each
other, like a relatively self-sufficient
semi-rural community. It's been said that
while r-fles are useful for hunting, though
there will always be someone with more g-ns.
Also, that the issue is spi-itual integrity,
over physical survival, saving the sou- over
the body and all that. Better to share food
than s-oot the hungry who might steal it.
Our island in British Columbia has around
10,000 people, many with a variety of
practical know-how, and I hope to learn.
I think and hope we'll see a 'medium'
landing of society and the economy rather
than a hard one, so that the necessary
infrastructure and adjustments can be done.

Feb. 16, 2008.
Here is a discussion about chakras.
.................................................
.................................................
Your experience of expansion beyond the body
helps with our fears for our physical lives
(somewhat!) and gives us a knowing that we are
more, and have more to look forward to (return
to). That type of experience is how we are at
the 6th chakra, the single eye and sight that
sees and begins to experience unity. The 1st
chakra at the base of the spine is what Freud
identified as aggression, but more accurately
matters of physical survival and bodily health.
The 2nd, genital, chakra has to do with physical
***uality and our sense of personal self. 3rd,
solar plexus chakra is close to what is often
called the 'ego' and has to do with our social
self, our relations to our 'tribes' and
community. 4th chakra, heart, is the first
spiritual stage, having to do with learning
compassion. 5th or throat has to do with
speaking and freely and truthfully and
hearing openly. In the 6th we see ourselves
and others as one, and in the 7th we
experience that fully.
Here's a page with some discussion and
excerpts about each chakra:
http://www.llresearch.org/homecomings/homecoming_2006/
homecoming_2006.htm
Practically, it's mostly useful to know
that we and others may act on a variety of
levels, sometimes for personal survival
and gain, sometimes out of loyalty to tribe
and group, and less often, out of selfless
compassion and unity. We see and will see
increasing selfish and selfless actions in
the near future. In difficult times, some
hoard, some loot, some share. Hoarding for
self and tribe is 'normal' 3rd chakra, 3D
behavior. Looting is on the path of
service-to-self development, a viable path
through 5th chakra / 5D. Eventually,
controlling all others and resources to
serve self requires too much energy, is
realized to be inefficient, and those on
the negative path let go their separation
and rejoin the positive mainstream.
Sharing is the next stage of positive
human development, and earth is beecoming
a positive 4D planet, on which will soon
be only positive, 4th chakra awakened
people in 4D bodies. In my understanding,
the 3D bodies most of us are in will pass
in the usual ways. And that there are some
who have recently graduated into 4D who are
being born in recent years into combination
3/4D bodies who are sometimes called Starkids
or Indigo Children, with unusual understanding
and sometimes paranormal abilities. These
are/will give birth to children in fully 4D
bodies who will be the 4D population of earth.
There are also 'wanderers' to earth from
4D, 5D and 6D who have been here to try to
help during this period of transition. These
are the folks I tend to hear from and that
my site was largely meant to reach. All
beings go through the same developmental
stages, and wanderers haven't yet fully
entered into a state of unity, we just are
able to sometimes. We try to share that
and do whatever else we can to help, whether
baking, counseling, nursing, etc. 6th chakra
is also our sense of intuition, that we can
tune into to get a sense of who, when and
how to help, and where and when to go
somewhere or do something. I'm big on
intuition, though I worry as much as anyone,
so join the club.
So off now from the library to home, our
little place here near the university, where
our selfish old bat of a landlady has a
severe case of empty nest syndrome and
wants us to move out because she wants
company but we're too busy working and
paying the rent. We shall see...
Write anytime, Aloha, Jo-y
Part 2 of 2.
