Antidote to terror

Leave the burning machine
In the garage,
Put the television set
In the garbage,
Switch off the electricity,
Walk out of the house,
Walk out of the city,
Walk into the country.

Touch the Sun
In the golden air;
Touch the Moon
In the silver air.

Paddle barefoot
In the mountain streams.

Dance with the clouds.

Caress the feathers
Of the winds
With your face,
Feel the scud
Of the rain
With your skin,
Hear the song
Of the birds
In your breath.

Stay outdoors.

Be a harvest mouse
In the hedgerows.
Be a faun
In the forests.

Connect with your planet
And become friends.

Cast care aside,
Flow freely,
Forgive freely,
Love freely.

Leave the future behind;
Inhabit the present;
Breathe the abundance
Of all that is.

Know now
That there is nothing
To fear.

The Holy Qur'an

Are splendid resources
For the black magicians
Of Estuary Hermeneutics,
Peace be upon them.

Both books are packed full
With absolutely wonderful
Inerrant truth-claims
About The Meaning Of Life.

And there is absolute agreement
Between the two faith communities
On one point:
The Meaning Of Life
Is conflict.

Introducing an angel based in Europe

Page update: 06.07.07

Channie Centara is an angel, a physical human being living in Sweden, an advanced extraterrestrial and a Universal White Time Healer.

She has been working actively with benign extraterrestrials since the age of five. She now speaks over 36 different languages from various planets and star systems, and has privileged executive use of several spacecraft.

Channie has a physical human body here on Earth, but her main body is an extraterrestrial one in which she lives and in which she is active on another planet. Channie also has an angel body with wings.

Channie Centara is a Universal White Time Healer. Using Universal White Time, the healer can go back in time and give healing a few seconds before the sickness or problem occurred. The healer can also heal in present time, taking away pain and discomfort. And the healer can send the healing force into the future to prevent the illness or problem from occurring again. You don't have to be an angel to do this. Any human being can become a Universal White Time Healer.

Universal White Time can also be used in interplanetary travel. Advanced extraterrestrial starships, such as those used by the Arcturians and other ETs associated with the Order of Melchizedek, use White Time Tunnels which have been specially constructed between planets, star systems and galaxies. These White Time Tunnels can be thought of as portals.

These portals can also be used by individuals for soul travelling over vast distances and times. Some human beings, including many of our New Age children, can recall dreams in which they were doing exactly this. There are components within dreams which are more veridical and more real than anything we experience in normal waking consciousness down here on the physical plane. Exploring these realities is a core task of the New Spirituality.

Alcuin Bramerton profile ..... Index of blog contents ..... Home

It is night.
Moth wings flutter.
A bat swoops.
Owls prowl.

In the mean streets
Of Godalming, Surrey,
A single British Bobby
In full body armour,
Riot gear
And gas mask,
Is searching
Among the Magnolia trees
For Muslim sympathisers.

Inside Number 14,
Honeysuckle Close,
Rosemary Hambledon
Notes the movement outside
And draws her curtains
Against the encroaching dark.

She has survived
One more day;
One more day
Without the horror
Of having a large,
Flaming,
Iron-bound
Copy of the
Holy Qur'an
Thrown through
Her parlour window.

She picks up
Her National Trust mug
Of Horlicks,
Sips down
Three tranquillisers,
And for what may be
The very last time,
Reaches for the wireless
And turns on
The BBC shipping forecast.

Fundamentalists' Bring-and-Buy

Mrs Irene Scott of Guernsey was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer in 2003 but went on to recover. She had cancer of the hip, spine, blood, lymph and marrow, and believes that a combination of conventional, holistic and alternative medicine helped her combat the symptoms and side effects of the condition.

A local medic, Dr Paul Williams, while delivering a talk on "The Myth of Homeopathy" at La Villiaze Evangelical Church on the island, was challenged by Mrs Scott. In his reply, Dr Williams told her: "…. you have been cured by the devil”.

Phil Henderson's report in The Guernsey Press & Star is dated 14.08.06 and can be seen here.

Jolly frightening, this terror business

Page update: 17.09.06

Is terror good? Or is terror evil?

Do those activities which we associate with terror, terrorism and the war against terror, attract positivity or do they attract negativity?

Do terror and anti-terror psychologies channel positive energy and positive entities, or do they channel negative energy and negative entities?

Are terror and anti-terror psychologies manifestations of a right-hand path spirituality? Or are they manifestations of a left-hand path spirituality?

Perhaps the characterising signature of left-hand path spiritualities is their attempt to manipulate human perceptions to maximise fear.

What is the opposite of fear? The spiritual obverse of fear is love. On this view, the characterising signature of right-hand path spiritualities is their attempt to encourage human perceptions to maximise love, love being the cohering, inclusive energy of the universe.

Terrorism is designed to keep people in fear, and so is the current Western political response to terrorism.

Western polity - a manifestation of left-hand path political materialism - needs to keep the fear ratcheted up in order to erode private freedoms and to secure public funding for the military-industrial complex and its covert business controllers.

Private freedoms need to be eroded so that the reach, influence and power of the business controllers of the political class can be subliminally extended.

Religion is a form of terrorism, a left-hand path spirituality, when it affirms dogmas which engender fear, create putative spiritual enemies, generate conflict, exclude faith communities from access to salvation, make exclusive truth-claims about human textual artefacts, and which seek to restrict personal freedom or to limit private judgement in matters of faith or conduct. Religion of this kind is spiritual fascism; terrorism on stilts.

If terrorism, and its establishment response, are successful in exaggerating and sustaining a sense of danger and fear in the population at large, new spiritual, mental and physical diseases are likely to manifest.

We have already begun to see AIDS, Ebola and obesity. Now Morgellons disease is coming to notice. This is a very strange disorder. It is not evenly distributed across the planet. At present, most reported cases appear to be clustered in the USA.

But in simple, practical terms, what can be done about terrorism and its identical twin, anti-terrorism?

Perhaps one of the best ways to negate the fear-promoting policies of the terrorists and their Western political allies is very simple: throw out the television.

The obsessive rehearsal of the images of manufactured bad news must be resisted. The creative dissemination of the idea of genuine good news must be energised.

Paint an icon

You need paint
To paint an icon,
But not just physical paint.

You need eyes
To see an icon,
But not just physical eyes.

An icon's spiritual potency
Is not apprehended physically;
It is apprehended spiritually
By invisible eyes
Which can see
Invisible colours
And which can listen
To inaudible tones
And which can feel
Non-tactual textures.

An icon is
An interdimensional portal;
A crossing point
Between dimensions;
A conduit for angels
Or for that
Which is angelic in character,
Angelic in origin,
Or angelic in destiny.

You don't pay
Close attention
To an icon;
An icon pays
Close attention
To you.

Watch out:
You are being watched.

Harriet feels a burning sensation

It is late on
At Toby's beach barbecue
When Harriet's pretty
Summer dress
Catches fire.

Harriet reflects
That fire is not just molecules
Changing address;
Fire is molecules downsizing
In order to become
Upwardly mobile.

Fire is cool like that.

Even cooler
Is the adjacent ocean.

Harriet throws herself
Into the dark, raging surf.

Not unexpectedly,
She finds the fire
In her dress
Quenched.

This is good.
The fire might have become
Tiresome
If it had been allowed
To spread
To adjacent regions.

And often
The elemental energy
Of the ocean
Is best appreciated
In the absence of clothes.

I am the Moon

Alcuin Bramerton profile ..... Index of blog contents ..... Home

I came from the surface
Of Jupiter
A long time ago,
When an explosion
Blasted me out
Of my gaseous womb
And I could no longer be held
In the gravitational embrace
Of my parents.

I congealed slowly
And deliciously
Into textured Jovian stone
And was captured
And held in orbit
By my new mistress
Gaia,
Whose scalp
You are shaving
Of rainforest beauty,
Whose breath
You are polluting
With poisonous industry,
And whose heart
You are breaking
With unnecessary war.

I am the Moon.
My spiritual task
In the multidimensional ecology
Of your local universe
Is to mirror
The consciousness of Earth
Back to you.
I reflect what you are feeling;
My primary function
Is to bounce back
Your emotions.

I am the Moon.
I am a very peaceful vibration.
I am weary with your obsession
With war and conflict
And tired of your capitulation
To religion
Which promotes war and conflict
By tolerating
The heresy of belief.

I am the Moon.
I feel energy data
Through silvery ray vibrations.
Do you remember these?
Do you remember
The silvery gossamer light
Shimmering breast bright
On the membrane of calm water
When the full Moon first rises?

Are you aroused by my rising?
I bear my breast naked
For you
Thirteen times a year.
Do I arouse your interest?
Do I stimulate your recall
Of etheric desire?

Run your eye over me.
Feel my texture.
I have canyons and craters
On my flesh
Which are the marks
Of cosmic lovemaking.
I have been penetrated
My many powerful visitors
And I have loved them all.

My vibrations are now
So cool,
So opalescent,
So translucently ethereal,
That there is
Almost no electromagnetic charge
Left in me.
I am completely balanced.
And it is this balance
Which I transmit to you
Gently
As dreams.

In the depths
Of my canyons and craters
There are small
White-domed
Library temples
Where I hold the records
Of your memories
And your subconscious
Mental banks.

I transmit these energy data
To those beings
Who magnetically draw my energy,
Be they animal people,
Or faerie people
Or human people.
They all draw consciousness from me
As silver is drawn from wells
Fed by waterfalls.

Listen out when you sleep,
Listen out when you dream,
Listen out for the memories
I hold
Of your soul experience
Life after life
On planet after planet.

You are strong enough
To destroy Gaia,
Who struggles,
Dying,
To hold you to my breast
For nourishment,
But are you strong enough
To be entirely passive
And receive my milk
Quietly
On your tongue,
With your feelings open
To the silvery tickle
And trickle
Of my teaching?

I am the Moon.
Accept my radiant nakedness
Without judgment
And know completion.

Controlled anal voicing

On a recommendation
From an ex-member's husband,
The Blythburgh branch
Of The Women's Institute
Invited Mr Cyril Middleton
Of Dunwich, Suffolk,
To address them
At their Ash Wednesday lunch.

The ladies had checked
Mr Middleton's
Bona fides
Carefully
Before he was invited.

According to the internet,
He had a good address
In the old medieval part
Of Dunwich,
And his hobbies were
Story-telling
And scuba diving.

His speciality,
According to those who
Had had
The good fortune
Of attending his celebrated
Lectures before,
Was to make funny noises
For the amusement
Of the underclass.

The ladies first noticed
That things
Were going to be a little different
At this particular lunch,
When Mr Middleton
Set up his
Amplification system.

He carefully positioned
On the stage,
Not one, but two
Microphones;
One in front of him
At mouth height,
And one behind him
At buttock height.

He then clapped his hands loudly,
Asked for silence,
And said that the ladies
Should not be alarmed
But he was going to do a quick
Sound test.

Everyone stopped talking
And listened intently.

There was a pause
And then a long,
Rasping
High-decibel fart
Echoed around the room.

An agonising split second
Of communal
Prophylactic shock
Was followed by
A wanton explosion
Of some of the most
Indelicate
Rabelaisian
Belly-laughter
Ever to have permeated
A Women's Institute
Ash Wednesday lunch.

Several members,
Indeed,
Were seen to be
Writhing on the floor,
Seriously
Injuring themselves
Laughing.

It was quite a few minutes
Before good order
Was re-established.

Mr Middleton
Urged the ladies
To control themselves
And asked that the windows
Be opened
Because the room was becoming
Rather stuffy.

He then let rip
With a second
Stentorian
Anal raspberry,
Twice as loud
And twice as long
And twice as bubbly
As the first.

The meeting once more
Degraded into
Screams and howls
Of unrestrained laughter.

Gertrude Cookley,
A new member from
Chediston Green,
Swore blind
That during this second
Mighty clarion call
She had seen a vision
Of the Archangel Gabriel
Presenting the Prophet Muhammad
With the original text
Of The Life of Brian.

Once the laughter
Had died down,
And the ladies
Had regained the power
Of coherent speech,
They began
Chatting animatedly,
With one another
Saying things like:
"Better out than in,"
And, "No need of nuclear power
With that volume
Of methane available,"
And, "That was worse than
Exchanging a sign
Of the peace."

Later in the day,
The Vicar's wife commented
To her husband
That, all in all,
It was not a good start
To Lent.

A mystery deeper than tears

Crying is the therapy
Of release.

We need to cry more.
We need to cry better.
Tears lubricate a bad day.

But the positive energy
Of lachrymation
Is a mystery deeper than tears.

Why do people cry
When they are happy?
Why do people cry
When they laugh?

We give ourselves when we cry.
But who
Or what
Is the beneficiary
Of our giving?

We abandon ourselves when we cry.
But who
Or what
Then occupies
The vacated inner space
We leave?

And when we cry
Why is the person next to us
Suddenly so understanding?
Suddenly so concerned?
Suddenly so sensitised?

Crying is old magic
Deployed by ancient people
Ever young.

It is a behaviour of childhood
Which expresses the desire
To stay childlike
Without qualification.

And when the time comes,
It would be nice to
Cry oneself
To death,
Rather as one
Cries oneself
To sleep.

Going to sleep
Is practice for
Going to death.

Sleeping is dying,
And tears do help.

Has a headache.

It is important
To be positive

And acknowledge

A twenty per cent
Chance,
That she is telling
The truth.

Stream of consciousness

This is a stream
Of consciousness.

Politics is an elaborate
Metaphor
For croquet:

I've forgotten to see
Those movies.

I forget everything

I forgot to get up
Yesterday.
And now it's today.

Of Western linear time concepts here.
Excuse me.

Whose consciousness
Is this a stream of?
And how can I be sure?

Oh, look!
There's a squirrel.
That's nice.

What's a squirrel doing
In the deep-freeze?

The kettle's boiling.
I can see it boiling over there.
It's a steam of consciousness.

Water vapour is a more important
Greenhouse gas
Than either carbon dioxide
Or methane.

There are geeks
Who don't know that.
There are geeks
Who have no consciousness
At all.
Some geeks
Are just aural in-your-face
Non-sentient data complexes.

I like geeks.
The richest man in the world
Was a geek once;
A computer-geek
Who wrote source code.
Now he's the biggest do-gooder
Who has ever done gooding
On the planet,
Except for Mother Teresa.

Ah, good. Yes.
There's the chocolate.
I need chocolate to power up
My stream of consciousness.

I'm glad I saw those movies.
This is balls.

Alcuin Bramerton profile ..... Index of blog contents ..... Home


Very kindly,
Mr Tissington,
Of Ashbourne,
Derbyshire,
Signed papers
At his local hospital,
And officially
Committed himself
To an organ donor programme.

In the rubric
Of the document,
Deep down
In the small print,
He donated his head
To science.

It was a magnanimous gesture,
But a stupid head.

Stupid heads
Cannot easily be
Relocated.

But eventually
They found a stupid body
And attached Mr Tissington's
Stupid head to it.

There was genuine hope,
Among the medical team,
That once the transplanted organ
And its recipient body
Had acclimatised,
And come out of life support
And counselling,
They might have a useful role
To play
In the war
Against terror.

Perhaps what we call death
Is not that at all.

Perhaps what we call death
Is just a change
Of address.

We slip through
An interdimensional portal
Back into our real home.

Perhaps death was where we were,
Down here in the matrix,
Not where we go
Up there
When we leave.

Deep down we know that
The angel paths are open;
The angel paths are beckoning;
The angel paths remember
The fluttering feel
Of our feet.
