INTRODUCTION
Here is 1 John 2 on making good choices in life ..
1 John 2:15-17 (KJV, public domain)
15 “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 “For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
17 “And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.”

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO
Hello, Dear Ones, It’s Alice. I Am of the Stars.
Right now I have three verses for you that I liked very much. They are in the First Epistle General of John, Chapter 2, verses 15-17. I liked them because they provide immediate direction about the Kingdom of God, and how to be in the eternal Light of God.
A Time of Choosing.The first verse goes like this …
“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.” –1 John 2:15
So here it is saying … you have heard this, right? … you have to choose whether to love the world or to love God the Father; that the love of the Father is capable of lighting up the heart of a person that loves the Father. But if we turn our attention and our love to the things of Creation, then it becomes much more difficult. We have to be very single-pointed. What do they say? To have ‘one eye’, right?
“The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.” –Matthew 6:22 (KJV, public domain)
We have to be very single-pointed about what we do in life, because life is kind of short, you know? … Reading onward …
“For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.” —1 John 2:16
Now this is good, because it explains what is meant by the world and mammon …
Lust of the Flesh. So, “the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life” … interesting, do you not think? And very poetic. [sighs] … Lust of the flesh most likely would be sexual desire that is not tempered by chastity or love for, say, one’s spouse. That is what I guess … You may have other ideas.
Lust of the flesh, according to Arthur Powell, compiler for the School of Theosophy, is like the desire elemental I have discussed in another blog …
Link: “The Desire Elemental,” by Alice B. Clagett, published on 31 July 2015 … https://wp.me/p2Rkym-5Ub ..
Arthur Powell’s associates always said that we have a desire elemental so that we can relate to this reality, this world. But the spiritual person needs to be constantly training and containing that energy, so that it serves the purpose of the Soul in this incarnation.
Lust of the Eyes. That might be the desire for possessions; the desire for riches and wealth and lands.
The thing about wealth and lands is that, if we think about them as something that we possess … instead of something that is assisting us, for the moment, in our Soul purpose … we get snagged up on that stuff, you know? It is better to think of the things that we see as an ever-changing Soul lesson that we are learning, than to think of them as things that we possess, because that snagginess kind of prevents us from learning our Soul lessons. That is what I think.
Pride of Life. I think that has to do with feeling that you are somebody in the world, you know? You have the social status. You have a certain arrogance of being a particular way in the eyes of other people.
You know, what do we really have, to be proud of, when life is really given to us by God, you know? We get it from God, and eventually give it back to God. So this pride of life consists of a kind of snagginess too; it is like we get stuck on what is happening at this very moment, and forget the beginning and the end of it, you know? … which is the Godliness from which we come and to which we go. So it is short-sightedness, I think; and stuckness, in the flow of the river of eternal life. You know? Last verse …
Death of the World Puts an End to Desire
“And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.” –1 John 2:17
Nice, huh? So he is saying, all this snag stuff will come to an end. The minute we pass on, none of that stuff will exist. The desire for it also will pass away, because the desire elemental leaves us, at the moment of death, and goes off to be with somebody else, I guess.
Aligning with God Is a Deathless State
” … but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.” This is the main point here; the point is: Align now with the will of God. Right now, do God’s will in this lifetime, even though all these distractions exist, right?
When it says “abideth forever,” It does not mean ‘after death’, I feel. You could consider that the minute we align with the will of God, we are already in the eternal flow. So death holds no fear, because we continue, even after death, in the eternal flow of the will of God.
Very nice! See you all later. Take care.
In love, light and joy
This is Alice B. Clagett.
I Am of the Stars … and so are you!

I have a couple of words about the different forms of tantric. These are just my own notions about it. There has been quite a bit written, and I have blogged it quite a few times in the past.
To me, the aim of the Ascension process is Sacred Sexuality. In the end, it is going to be combining masculine and feminine qualities, each of us within our own Souls.

… but I think he is really upset that I am here. I will only be here for a minute.
Sacred Sexuality
Lisa Renee of “Energetic Synthesis” … https://energeticsynthesis.com/ … talks about Hieros Gamos, in which a man and woman perform the act of sex as if it were marriage between a god and goddess …
I think those are symbols of what we are about to become; of what we are, and are about to remember. In my mind, Christos is the male principle of Christ consciousness, and just in my mind, Sophia is the principle of Divine wisdom and Divine nurturing … something like that … something like Mary Magdalene; that energy. I am looking forward to that; in the process, I am sorting through various energies that persist in the world today.
White Tantra
Just to let you know, my background in tantra is kundalini yoga; the organization is called 3HO …
… and their form of tantric practice is called ‘White Tantra’ … That is because it involved a man and a woman sitting opposite each other, and doing various chants to God, very often looking into each other’s eyes; and sometimes with special yoga poses … to clear the liver, for instance, for balance, or whatever. It can be a very physically demanding kind of tantra. It is not a sexual tantra, but it does make use of the polarity of energy between the feminine and the masculine.
In all the people I have seen who have done white Tantric Yoga at least once, what that does is it creates in them the understanding that what they are looking at, in the opposite sex, is God … God himself, or God herself, looking back at them. And so, in their married life, they become very reverent towards each other; very respectful.
And it also involves purification of their own Souls, so that, in the married life, which 3HO espouses, the Souls of each person can persist in raising each other into greater and greater God-consciousness. That is White Tantra. That is the form of Tantra with which I am really familiar.
Red Tantra
I thought I would glancingly mention two other forms of tantra: One is Red Tantra, and that is done between men and women, in a sexual way. I know some people who do White Tantra also do Red Tantra as married couples. I have never done Red Tantra, and so I cannot speak too much to that. I have heard there are ‘red-robed’ monks and nuns that practice Red Tantra together.
In that instance … in the instance of non-married-couple relationships … I think Red Tantra has drawbacks. I think that it is difficult to control all the negative emotions that can be attached to sexual desire, in terms of jealousy and possessiveness and ratcheting up of the sexual drive, over and above what it should be, in relationship to the total chakric system.
I feel that it places undue emphasis on the desire elemental. (See my blog category: Desire elementals …) The holy people of India almost invariably say that Red Tantra in groups is just too risky of a practice to try out (although I feel that in married couples it is likely a good practice).
The desire elemental within us, that guards our lower energy and keeps us on Earth … that desire elemental is very attracted to this notion. I would say: Beware Group Red Tantra, and do not do that.
Black Tantra
Then there is Black Tantra. One form of black Tantra is when we mind control someone else … a sleeping person, or a person who can be mind controlled in the waking state … when we mind control them into an act of sex. This act, which I also term astral rape or psychic rape, is an act that is attractive to spiritual adepts, either consciously, through the use of curses such as the “Jackass Love Curse” …
Link: “How to Lift the Dire Karma of the Jackass Love Curse,” by Alice B. Clagett, published on 15 June 2018 … https://wp.me/p2Rkym-9qX ..
Link: “Curse of Delilah,” by Alice B. Clagett, filmed on 6 June 2018 … https://wp.me/p2Rkym-9s0 ..
… or sometimes unconsciously, as love-deprived, sleeping celibate spiritual adepts’ travelling astral forms jump down upon other sleeping people in a love-stricken frenzy.
The problem is that the use of mind control invariably brings in the Demon Realm … and not to the advantage of any human being. It is never to the advantage of any human being, to bring in the Demon Realm.
The thing about spiritual adepts is, they have a lot of psychic powers; I have gone into it in a number of blogs. And it is very tempting for them to use these powers as power over people in the world. Men, especially, have this predilection; this ‘power over’ thing to fight against; this patriarchal domination, double-oh-seven mental filter (kill the woman instead of loving her, as you have sex), you know?
In the big cities right now, there is quite a bit of Black Tantra going on. And there is quite a bit of clearing too; the big cities are great focus of clearing. I heard that Los Angeles might be on the 33rd parallel north … which might account for quite a bit of what is going on over there right now … and Iraq also, according to one map …
The thing to do about mind control is to realize that it is not any person that is doing it, and to know that spiritual adepts are targeted to be flow-through channels for mind control by the Demon Realm.
So what you have is: Demon Realm, spiritual adept, and then some person that is being demonized through Black Tantra … some man or woman. The energy of the Demon Realm, in the aspect of mind control, flowing through the spiritual adept, is demonizing them. And the person that is the object, that is the receptor of this black magic energy … the man or woman … is being bound down to the Hell Realms by the experience that she is having.
Here is more on the very severe drawbacks of the practice of Black Tantra …
Link: “Can People Who Practice Rectal Intercourse Attain Enlightenment?” by Alice B. Clagett, written and published on 20 June 2020 … https://wp.me/p2Rkym-iQn ..
How to Escape from Black Tantra
On Practicing Kundalini Yoga. I recommend practicing the 3HO … https://www.3ho.org/ … version of kundalini yoga, which I have found strengthens the central vertical power current and, through use of the ‘locks’ and of pranayam (breathing techniques), allows the upward-flowing kundalini energy to clear through energy blocks and clarify the energy of the aura.
That way the nightmares and hellworld scenes and the inclination to visualize and act out atrocities that are occasioned by the ‘reverse kundalini’ flow of Black Tantra can be set aright.
I advise not doing kundalini yoga exercises while undertaking rectal intercourse, as that practice makes kundalini yoga exercises uncomfortable, and reverses their good effects, so that the effort of yoga comes to naught (so I have heard).
In cases where a person is being vampirized by visions or clairaudient phrases referring to rectal intercourse, and the experience is astral rather than physical, I feel that practice of kundalini yoga once daily is likely very quickly to have a markedly beneficial effect.
I suggest going very lightly and briefly with these exercises at first, after getting the ok from your medical doctor. Remember always to ‘sign in’ before an exercise set by asking God for His blessing. If an exercise feels in any way uncomfortable, then stop doing it, and move on to the next exercise. It may well be that the next time you do the exercise set you will find it much easier to do, and so on with each new day you practice it.
On Aligning the Will with That of God. In addition, the thing to do, if you are the spiritual adept, is to align your will with the will of God. And then you will find out all the important things for your spiritual growth. And the thing to do, at this moment, in the big cities, for the women who are targeted for this Black Tantra, is to tell all those demons that are bound to you, that they are free to go … because they do not want to be tied down to you.
On Attending Church. And then turn to a church; turn to a large organization full of devout people, that has that guardianship of the Angelic realm around it. Turn to a church, and do your best to bring in the angels to your own home, as guardians.
Conclusion
That is it: Not to worry too much. Everything is clearing out. As the dust clears, the relationship that is going to exist on New Earth between men and women will be a wonderful experience. Children will be greatly nurtured by seeing these role models, both male and female. And men and women will have very happy marriages at that point.
So, something wonderful to look forward to, and a few caveats to observe, in the meantime. You all take care! Find the blessed path. Find the high path. Find the love and the Light! God bless you.

Dear Ones,
Every human being has a ‘desire elemental’, which consists of ‘elemental essence’ that goes along and flows with his or her EMF (electromagnetic field). Some call this desire elemental a ‘being’, but this is an imperfect term, as its beingness is not discretely individualized like that of the human being.
Nevertheless, every human being is attended by this elemental essence, and it in fact performs a very important service to humankind, by keeping us motivated to stay on Earth, and thus to accomplish our Soul missions during this incarnation.
For a good description of the desire elemental, I refer you to …
Citation: “The Astral Body and Other Astral Phenomena,” compiled by Arthur E. Powell, Theosophical Publishing House, Wheaton, IL. Copyright The Theosophical Publishing House, London, Ltd. 1965 …page 76 (beginning “It will be recollected…”) and then all of page 77 (ending “…as apart from it.”)
Arthur Powell makes a very good point about not letting our elemental essence get the better of us, as it by nature seeks the coarser astral vibrations, and we humans seek refinement of our astral matter, so that we may realize our God nature.
In love, light and joy
This is Alice B. Clagett.

NAGGING, FROM THE STANDPOINT OF AN INNOCENT OBSERVER (ME)
As you may know, I have been studying the Book of Revelation in the Bible. In chapter 1, there is quite a striking vision that John the Divine had on the Isle of Patma. Highlights …
10 “I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet …
12 “And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks; …
16 “And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp two edged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.” –Revelation 1, KJV (public domain)
I am guessing that this great and shining presence had a two-edged sword in his mouth because he had learned to counter a nagging wife. (Not really, just a humorous thought….) There is a lesson here. How can a man be strong and shining if he suffers a nagging wife, anyway? What can more wear down a man’s spirit than a scornful attitude in his one and only?
THE PSYCHOLOGY OF BEING NAGGED
And what to do about it? If you speak up, she might kick you out. There is always that chance. And with some women, it is a sure and certain outcome of a man speaking up for himself and holding his own.
What can I say? Clearly, this woman must be physically exceptionally beautiful. Clearly, the husband must harbor some hint of a doubt that he will ever measure up.
And what if she does kick you out? Do you feel there is no one in the world like her? Or do you feel, like her, that you could walk right out that door and find the new love of your life waiting for you?
If you meet a wife’s scorn and derision with an open heart and that ‘sensitive man’ thing … If, for instance, you say to her: When you nag me, I feel like curling up in a ball and crying … what will be her response? Being totally lacking in compassion and empathy, she will go for your jugular. For certain sure.
MALE VIOLENCE AND NAGGING BY WIVES
I saw on youtube just now a story about a husband whose wife was nagging him about a parking ticket. He ‘lost it’ and ‘acted out’ … which is to say, he ran over her. Twice. Then, leaving her body in the driveway, he went inside the house and took a nice, quiet nap.
What struck me most about the video was the smiles on the faces of the reporters who heard the story. They found it pretty funny.
Which, by my lights, points up the likelihood, in a nagged man, of acting out through violence, either toward his wife, or, if that is too scary, toward those he perceives as not so scary.
From this, I feel it is important to look for a solution to the nagging scenario, so that the urge to act out through violence will not crop up in the man’s subconscious over and over again. This will prevent social action against the man, in the form of a jail sentence or the like.
Men, it is important to understand that you are the wronged party in this instance. An abusive relationship is an abusive relationship, whether it is a man or a woman who is doing the abusing. The thing to do is to take the necessary steps to resolve the issue before violence occurs.
WHAT TO DO ABOUT BEING NAGGED?
Here you are. For the sixth time today, she speaks to you with scorn and derision ringing in her voice … Or, and this is a favorite of the nagging woman, she speaks to your friends about you … typically, in your presence … with scorn and derision. What to do?
For sure, like meets like. If you counter with scorn and derision, that will stop her in her tracks. Tell her how much your friends dislike her for her nagging. Tell her she is the lowest of the low. Close your heart like hers is closed. At least the blood flow will stop. But will you have a marriage? I dunno.
Here is a clue: If you or your spouse want rough sex, what does that mean? It means one or the other of you, or both, has a habit of thinking cruelly towards love and the lover.
What to do, then? There is always the possibility of getting counselling. If you leave her before working on your own response mechanisms, you are going to run into the same problem again and again, probably with increasing ferocity, till the issue of your own response is solved. Which is ok, too.
THE KARMA OF BEING NAGGED
That is just the way karma works. It is how Soul wounding gets resolved. God does this ‘ratchet up’ thing till we finally take notice, take action, and fix the hitch in our etheric net.
Keeping in mind, God is not a sadist. It is the lovers we attract into our lives who have that quality, when we have that ‘not worthy’, ‘not enough love in the world for me’ malware installed in the ether speak.
So God contrives this movie we call ‘reality’ … simply as a means of helping us clear our Souls of the wounding. God is love. God is the great healer.
THE HYENA’S DAUGHTER . AND OTHER VIVID STORIES
Speaking of movies, there is a comic strip conjured up by a guy who clearly has the ‘nag me’ bug … “The Hyena’s Daughter” (story and art by Simon Roy). This is a story about a woman who horrifically transforms into a hyena (1) …
Who needs this kind of story line? Here is one that is more fun … the first part is the part about rough sex and nagging. Then it presents some alternatives, such as … go figure! … compliments … ?!
Video: “The Nagging wife song – Belated Valentine – DJ Electro Swingable Mashup mix,” by ElectroSwingable, 12 February 2017 … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUCJrKI37V8 ..
Here is a lady named Dawndee … who strikes me as the epitome of the nagging personality (sorry, Dawndee!) … with her justification for nagging. Which I have heard from others…
The trouble I have with this is, who appointed her to be the person who figures out who should do what in the marriage? What about the guy’s ideas on what he wants from the woman? Where is his voice, telling her what he wants from her? I just do not get it!
PROFESSIONAL ADVICE ON BEING NAGGED
Here is Jim Marshall, a professional counselor with a thought on ending the torture …
Seems pretty similar: Listen … then clarify. Negotiate a timeline. It mentions how men retreat in the face of wifely trouble … How it might help to respond verbally instead. Especially to a woman’s expectation that You’re in love with me. You should know what I’m thinking. What??
So Dr. Dar says, when confronted with what she calls ‘nonspecificity’, a husband might try to get clarification. For example, he might ask: What’s going on with you? What can I do to help you feel better in this moment?
NAGGING, FROM THE STANDPOINT OF AN INNOCENT OBSERVER (ME)
I have had my own unforgettable moments in the presence of a woman nagging her husband. Never before having had that experience … in my own significant other relationships or among my friendships, I was at a near total loss for words. However, I did finally (after multiple nagging wife syndrome exposures) cough up: I don’t think you should be mean to your husband like that. To which the response, the next day, was: Who are you to tell me howI should be with my husband? Dee ah duh … What do I say now?
So then on another occasion, I got together with them again. First thing, she said: By the way, my husband and I have talked it over, and we both agree, you don’t have any right to talk to me that way. Dee ah duh … What way? said I. To which she said: What I mean is, you have no right to tell me how to talk to my husband. He’s my husband. This has nothing to do with you.
I am speechless here. The wife is a nagging verbal abuser. The husband, by her account, agrees that this is his cup of tea. She thinks this has nothing to do with me.
What did I not say, here? I did not say: When I hear her cruel tongue, my heart shrinks to the size of a wizened walnut. And guys, if you hear this, just know it is not an invitation to renew our friendship. Not in the least. Cruelty is not my cup of tea.
ON BEING THE VICTIM OF CLAIR SADOMASOCHISM
And on the clair plane, not only did this woman for several years horrify me with hatred during the act of sex with her husband… This was not enough for her. She looked for a single woman, such as me, to torture on the clair plane during the day, when her husband is not readily at hand to be nagged.
So all day for several years, she tortured me with clair demands for sadomasochistic sexual daydreams … what she termed innocent ‘flirting’ … which is to say, cruel thoughts of sex. Then, during casual acts of sex-for-pay, she would imaging she was performing sadistic sexual acts with me. She being the sadist, and me the masochist.
Woman! Look this straight in the eye: You are a sex worker. Be with who you are with! If you cannot stand it, give it up.
FURTHER AGGRAVATION
To ante up, when the couple performed the act of sex, they would wait till I was asleep. Then as the wife poured her cruelty out into the husband’s open heart, he would try to snag my ‘desire elemental’ [see my blog category: Desire elementals ] … which is ever wakeful even when I am in dreamland … as a safe haven for his expression of sexual love.
The desire elemental has a limited intelligence. It has the will to survive. And an avid interest in desire. It can talk, too, on the clair plane, through the means of the intestinal neural network. And so, the husband has this recurring daydream, while having sex with what his unconscious mind conceives to be a ‘hyena woman’ … of having sex with me instead. Which he verifies through what he hears from my desire elemental while I am asleep.
Guy! I am not the person you are having sex with. I am not my desire elemental. It is just a little body elemental, a little thought form that zings in on the desire world. And you know very well, when I am wide awake, I change my own mind to a different thought train whenever you start to indulge in this daydream. Face the facts, and face your fears. Look the person you are with in the eye when you have sex. If you cannot stand it, find yourself someone else.
A MESSAGE TO THE BOTH OF YOU
It’s not ‘rough sex’ you are dreaming of. It is sadomasochism.
It is not a variant of the norm. It is a samskara that you carry, a karmic miasmic distortion, a wounding of the Soul.
Outa my life, dudes! Deal with it. Horrify me no longer. If you want friends, check it out! … Open your hearts to a loving relationship with your spouse.
In love, light and joy … (well ok, less so at this moment) This is Alice B. Clagett.

EMOTIONS AND THOUGHTS AFFECT THE QUALITY OF ASTRAL EXPERIENCE
Dear Ones,
Here is more on improving the quality of our astral plane experience. This blog has to do with consciously nurturing ‘good’ emotions and avoiding ‘bad’ emotions (such as rage, depression, or worry).
Thoughts and emotions are inextricably interlinked. Thoughts, like the physical body and the emotions, must be kept highly tuned in order to have a positive astral (i.e., emotional) experience.
THINGS THAT WORSEN THE ASTRAL EXPERIENCE
May I suggest avoiding popular media such as television and movies, avoiding music that rouses the primitive passions, and avoiding as well habits of viewing pornography? Also, avoidance of loud or irritating recurrent noises, such as motor noises?
THINGS THAT IMPROVE THE ASTRAL EXPERIENCE
Instead, to calm and train the mind, be in peaceful surroundings. Read or view uplifting topics, such as, for example, books of philosophy, books that increase wisdom and knowledge, or movies such as those provided by Spiritual Cinema Circle …
In times of trouble, the grounds of a church, or your place of worship, will offer relief. Reading your sacred book will also help, as will wearing a ‘talisman’ such as a cross or other symbol of that which is holy.
These are only a few of the many ways to uplift mind and emotions. Arthur Powell goes into great detail, as to the why and wherefore, below.

… there are two passages to do with consciously nurturing ‘good’ emotions and avoiding ‘bad’ emotions (such as rage, depression, or worry).
I have added the page references below, rather than quoting extensively from the source, so as not to infringe on the copyright for the book. I realize this is a difficulty for the reader, and hope it will not be insuperably so. The first passage is …
Citation: “The Astral Body and Other Phenomena,” compiled by Arthur E. Powell, published 1927, Quest Book edition 1973,“Chapter VII. Physical Life,” page 70, first full paragraph 4 beginning “The Emotional Life …” through page 74, the first full paragraph ending “… maintain that position.”
The second passage is in the same chapter, page 76, the first paragraph beginning “It will be recollected …” through page 78, fourth paragraph ending “… responding to them.”
The topics covered in these two passages, in order of presentation, are:
The Emotional Life
Manifestation of Desire: The ‘Dark Elementals’
Habits of Thought and Emotion
How to Manifest Higher Astral Matter
The Influence of Projected Thoughts and Emotions
The Influence of Nature Spirits
