Dear Ones,

The True Story of Adam and Eve
by Alice B. Clagett
24 January 2015

What really happened in the Garden of Eden? …

Adam and Eve were having a wonderful time, exploring the Art of Love under a beautiful tree known as the Tree of Long Life and Happiness.

It was summertime. Little did they know, there was a very large snake in the tree. The devil came by and said to the snake, in a low, snarly, hissy voice (so that the snake could understand) …

Tell Adam and Eve that what they’re doing is Evil!

So the snake snuck along slowly, till it was near their ears.

By this time they were asleep under the tree, cuddled in each other’s arms. Dreaming sweetly of conjugal love.

The snake hissed in their ears like this: What you did was wrong! Trust me on this! I just found out from the fellow that owns the Book of Good and Evil.

Their eyes opened wide. They looked at each other.

Adam said to Eve: WHY did you tempt me?

Eve said to Adam: WHY did you treat me like an evil thing?

Then God, who had been listening all the time (naturally) sent just a hint of his magnificent, loving heart down to the vicinity of the devil, the snake, the tree, and Adam and Eve. But just a hint was more than enough! Everyone was struck with awe, looking up at Him.

And God said: My children, this dissing of your human nature is truly not to my liking. I like Love. Hate’s just not my thing. My feeling is, this Garden, and this Tree of Long Life and Happiness, are just not the place for the two of you. Until you kiss and make up.

So out they went from the Garden of Eden, and into a Dimension NOW known as Duality. A Dimension of Knowledge of Good and Evil.

You all know, from the Bible, what happened then (1). And from Joni Mitchell, how the longing of their children grew to return to the non-dual state:

And all we many children of Adam and Eve, at this moment of Ascension, have, after all these aeons, found our way back. Back to the Garden of Earth.

What damage has been done, will be undone.

All of us, all humankind, shall join in this Great Song, the Song of Earth Arising.

In love, light and joy

FOOTNOTE

(1) Genesis 2:15-25 (KJV – Public Domain): Story of Adam and Eve

15 “And the Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.

16 “And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:

17 “But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

18 “And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.

19 “And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.

20 “And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.

21 “And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;

22 “And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.

23 “And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.

24 “Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

25 “And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.”

The Bible, The Devic Evolutionary Line, and ETs (Beings of Light) . by Alice B. Clagett

  • THE BIBLE: ANGELS VERSUS BEINGS OF LIGHT (ETs)

Dear Ones,

THE DEVIC EVOLUTIONARY LINE

Remember how, when Rome conquered Britain, Ireland and the like, understanding of the Devic Evolutionary Line …. Devas, Nature Spirits, Elementals, and so on …

Link: “Devic and Human Evolution,” by Alice B. Clagett, published on 5 December 2014 revised … https://wp.me/p2Rkym-7NJ ..

… was suppressed in the name of Christianity? Existing these days only in foreign climes, and in the teachings of Wicca …

Yet in the Bible there is mention of the Cherubim and Seraphim, the Powers and Potentates, Thrones and Dominions, the Virtues and Principalities, the Archangels and the Angels …

Link: “The Angel Realm and the Plane of Forces: A Prayer,” by Alice B. Clagett, published on 11 January 2015; revised … https://wp.me/p2Rkym-2rn ..

Certain of the archangels are the highest order of beings in the Devic Kingdom; these are termed ‘devas’ or ‘devi’. As it turns out, there are different sorts of devas (the highest beings in the nature spirit line of evolution, which is separate from but complimentary to, the human line of evolution, whose highest beings are Spiritual Adepts). Who knew!

THE BIBLE: ANGELS VERSUS BEINGS OF LIGHT (ETs)

In our understanding of the Bible, there is a ‘glom’ regarding angels and messengers from God (described as men surrounded by Light). Actually, these are different sorts of beings. Angels are beings that include the Devic Evolutionary Line. Beings of Light who look like men are Star Brethren, such as the Hathors of Sirius and Venus, the Arcturians, and the Pleiadians. These are apparently our brothers and sisters of the stars … those who, when our hearts are tinged with fear, are known at ‘ETs’. But when our hearts are fully lit, they are known as our Star Brethren …

Dear Ones,

I have been thinking about the Bible doctrine that Mary was a Virgin and also the Mother of God. I wondered what application it might have for all women. An idea came to me during the church service yesterday.

THE SACREDNESS OF CHILDREN BORN OUT OF WEDLOCK

In the traditional way of thinking of the Virgin Birth, of course, Mary, a woman who had known no man, was blessed by the Holy Spirit and gave birth to the Son of God. Well if we take it this way, then this might imply that sexuality and Divinity are opposites.

But to look at the conception in terms of women everywhere, the notion that Mary, a young unmarried woman, conceived a child who was the Son of God, could offer a benediction to all unwed mothers. To read that the Angel said to Mary, that her child would be great and would be called the Son of the Most High, might help us understand that all children, regardless of the circumstances of their birth, deserve love and respect, and are capable of feats of great courage and great worth in the world.

The crux of the issue seems to lie in whether Mary was an unwed mother, or whether this was truly an Immaculate Conception. But maybe, in either case, we could say that conception is an immaculate event. That all mothers are blessed with God’s love. That childbirth is one of God’s greatest miracles. That all children are children of God. And this is the conclusion I draw from the story of Mother Mary, whose solid, steadfast, blue white Light imbues all those who revere her.

In love, light and joy

26 “And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,
27 “To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary.
28 “And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
29 “And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.
30 “And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.
31 “And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.
32 “He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
33 “And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
34 “Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
35 “And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
36 “And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.
37 “For with God nothing shall be impossible.
38 “And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word.” And the angel departed from her.”

(KJV – public domain)

18 “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
19 “Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.
20 “But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
21 “And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.”

A Vision: Choosing the Light . by Alice B. Clagett .

Written and published on 11 November 2014; revised

Dear Ones,

In the hours before dawn today, I could feel the light massing on nearby Earth, just beyond my ken. I felt it preparing to leap into our vision, over the far horizon, into our lives and homes, our backyards and our mountainsides. Preparing to leap, sparkling, from rooftop to rooftop, from home to home, all across this great City of the Angels …

I could feel it there, before I saw it. I opened the drapes. All was dark. I could feel how dark the world around me was, here in Los Angeles, on the astral plane. I could feel the beings of darkness assailing me, and assailing many others.

And then I had an inner illumination. These are the words that were gifted me at that moment:

“I am blessed by God.”

I thought, “What beautiful words! What a beautiful early morning gift!”

And for a few minutes, as I repeated them over and over, I very tangibly felt the astral darkness recede, and a shield of Divine protection come round me.

And then I thought:

“My goodness, this is no time for cult of personality. No time for pride. No time to rely on our rational minds. We must set all this aside, and place our faith in God alone. We must place our faith in the Highest.

“In truth, we sometimes place our devotion at the feet of worldly leaders of religious movements rather than relying on God. Yet if we were to go to the teachings of those we revere, no doubt we would discover that our great spiritual teachers spent their whole lives relying on God. And in so discovering, we might turn to God as well.”

After a little while, I looked out my window again, and there was the morning light! Looks like it’s going to be a cloudy day here in LA, but nevertheless, this new morning light warms my heart.

I was thinking later about my faith in Christ’s teachings, and reminiscing about the times when I’ve truly felt Divine Love shining in my heart. These have been, without a doubt, the highlights of my life.

For those of us who look to Christ’s love, and also for those who follow the tradition of Judaism, what better words than these? :

1 “The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” — Psalm 27, KJV (public domain)

In love, light and joy
