What I've never understood is how you could believe in Buddhas, and at the same time not believe in a spirit being. How does space-time factor into you channeling a Bodhisattva? Can you spell cognitive dissonance?

For example, if this babe is channeling beings from Orion, it's 1600 light years away from us. That means that the latest glimpse of us they'd have through their telescopes would be of the year 415 CE, our time. The "News At 11" headline they'd have seen most recently would be "High Priestess Hypatia Killed By Angry Mob Of Christians In Alexandria." :-) From: aryavazhi <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, April 26, 2015 12:39 PM Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: Joy of Google.... The most interesting part for me is that techno-savvy kids from an age as advanced as ours clearly take this sort of thing seriously. Is it a religion for our new age? Yes, of course. Do the Galactic Council of Orion take the place of angels in people wanting to have a reassuring voice to talk to in an age of increasing chaos? Yes, I think so, they take the place of angels. Or astral beings, or whatever you like to call them. There are the good guys and the bad guys. It's a development, which already started with the theosophs I think, who wanted to start a new unified religion, incorporating many ideas from the east, from Buddhism and Hinduism, mixing it with the more modern ideas of evolution, root-races, (also an outcome of Darwinism), and whatever was known about astrology at the time. They had the 'ascended masters', all this mixed with popular culture, UFO myth etc. I remember, when everyone in my environment read a book called 'Starseed transmission', it was a channeled book, I also read it and even liked it. I don't even remember anymore what it said, but it was all glad in the language of some higher extraterrestial beings, who took good care of planet earth, and was basically saying things very similar to TM think - be just having come out of it - speaking of global transformation, and an evolution of consciousness - in the most general terms you might think of. In the beginning of the 90ies, channeling was all the vogue. But you could have looked at it also as a way of dressing up old knowledge / theories in a new way. Obviously this whole starseed movement went much further then, from those more general approaches, by suggesting to people that, if they were just interested into this kind of thing, it would be very likely they are ET's themselves, making questionaries to determine if your home is really somewhere else. Some of these people, you just saw the video of, sound more like reborn Christians. And yes, the lady channeling beings from the 'Orion', also started by doing 'Transmission meditation', you know this from Nabby, and that was started by a retro theosoph Benjamin Creme, ask Nabby.
