Although only a few hours have passed since my last visit conditions are so propitious that it was deemed advantageous that I again make contact. I hope that you will pardon my intrusion in your daily earth life routine.

So we will resume our little trip where it was left off the previous evening. Now we are again back on the surface of Venus and we find ourselves standing in a beautiful forest glade, and although it is quite familiar to me, I see in your mind that you are almost overwhelmed with the beauty. For the benefit of your earth brothers, let us sit down upon this grassy bank beside a pool so that I may not only explain more fully these things about you, but that I may also clear up some of the salient points which I see are not quite transparent. As you look about you, you see many tall trees which stretch hundreds of feet into the air, and the overhanging branches seem to reach out and form a canopy which delicately laces the radiant solar energy that comes from the great golden orb which shines above; and while it is the same sun which shines on your earth it has here quite a different appearance, not being small and white and extremely brilliant, but being large and of a soft golden yellow color which can be easily looked into. As you have been told the sun is not as commonly supposed, a mass of disintegrating atomic energy which is dissipating itself as white hot heat, but is instead a radiant energy projector which converts energy and reflects its light and other associated energy fluxes into what you term your three dimensional world. This energy source is of course the Fountainhead.

Due to the difference in atomic constituents and frequency vibration in the atmosphere and astral shell of Venus the sun is therefore able to transmit or reflect a somewhat different frequency spectra upon Venus, lower orders of the more actinic rays being properly filtered out, as these rays are merely by-products in frequency transmission from the radiant source or sun.

I see that you are looking about you and gazing with wonder and awe at the display of the many strange and different species of plant, bird and insect life.

Over there is an orchid-like plant which thrives on air and you see it has a blossom so large you could easily lie down in it. Floating upon the surface of the lake you see another aqueous plant growing before you, exactly similar to the one you call the lotus, which was brought to your earth by one of your holy men who had made an astral flight to this planet, and had actually lived here at one time. However it is impossible at this time to describe all of these many and wonderful flowers and trees and the busy insect and bird life which lives and flourishes among them. Let it be said however, and you’ll agree with me on looking about you, that it exceeds beyond the wildest reach of the imagination what an earth man might be capable of envisioning. Many earth people have, in moments of psychic transmission or experience, caught a glimpse of this fairyland you see about you, and thought they were in Heaven, and while this is partially true in comparison to your earth planet, yet we here on Venus are still in a comparatively low state of evolution, and we are now able to see that stretching far ahead of us there are countless and innumerable realms or planes which far exceed our Venusian planet not only in beauty but in a spiritual way of life in which the people of those places live.

As I have told you previously some of the more spiritually advanced peoples of the earth have had contacts or flights to Venus, several of whom are living in your day and age. However they have all returned with different and diverse reports as to what they have seen on this planet. As I have said, this is of course due to the extent of their spiritual perception. You may liken the planet Venus in certain ways to your earth world. As you know there are countless expressions and ways of life upon your planet. There are the savages in the jungle, as you call them, and there are the Orientals–and there are numerous separations which you call nations, each maintaining a distinct and separate way of life, which is characterized by differences of clothing, speech, forms of government, and so on. In all your previous accounts of the planet Venus you may have been given the impression that there was only one race or kind of people living here. This is entirely erroneous. There are many kinds of people living on this planet, the difference being, however, in the stage of their spiritual evolution or position in the spectra of frequency vibration into which they have automatically gravitated. It is somewhat like the keys upon the piano are divided into groups and octaves. Your earth-man divides these frequency vibrations into relative planes of consciousness, as physical appurtenances. It is different on Venus, inasmuch as the physical does not exist in your generally conceived idea of material or physical. Therefore such divisions as planes or strata reside in a spiritual concept. When a discarnate entity evolves through time unto the planet Venus he usually finds himself in one of the lower states of consciousness. He will therefore through time (as you call time) or cycles, incarnate or evolve to this planet and if he is advancing properly he will each time rematerialize into a higher state of consciousness.

On your earth planet the divisions of life are very strongly marked in the physical or material sense. The black man born and raised in the jungle would not feel at home living among your modern skyscrapers. Therefore there are mental as well as geographical separations. On Venus this is somewhat different. We might liken them to the differences or levels in one of your skyscrapers and while all of the people here remain in harmonious relationship with each other as they are vitally interested in each others’ welfare, they of course know as individuals their proper place in the scale of their evolution on this planet.

Because you have not yet been completely separated from your physical body and have therefore not advanced in your perceptions, you will have to remain content and satisfied with seeing the dimension or plane upon which I, in my plane and those who are like me, are living. So to avoid confusion you will not be permitted to see the lower realms of consciousness which exist on this planet.

Let it be said however that the terminology of lower and higher is used only because your vocabulary is so limited and does not include the proper phraseology which would clarify the meaning. Even the very lowest form of man upon our planet could be considered as similar to an Adept, or Guru, as you call them on your earth planet. He has already begun to learn to break away from the more bestial way of life such as is found on the lower earth planes.

You people of the earth spend all but a very few hours of each day in catering to the needs of your body. You must feed it, sleep it, bathe it and otherwise pamper it, and yet you must otherwise use it or misuse it in gaining more and more of the things to pamper it with. You have become so steeped in the fears which are induced by pain and insecurities that you have incarcerated numbers of your kind, because they have become so weak in mental and physical ways that they have broken down in your treadmill-like existence and while so incarcerated they are treated even more like animals, and guards with whips and guns are placed over them and they are chained or beaten, or perhaps shocked into insensibility. Such things are indeed crude and barbaric and do not belong in the consciousness of a man who supports such a system six days a week and supposedly worships his God on the seventh. And so to further increase this great travesty against his God he must arm his children with the destructive weapons of aggression and send them out to kill his neighbors’ children.

Yes, my friend, even the beasts of the field which you use for food are not so unintelligent. But let us get back to my people. As I have said we possess no physical bodies in your sense of the physical, neither are we born on this planet, as you would call birth by your standards. When a person from another spiritual plane wishes for reasons of his own evolution to live on this planet, he first seeks out, in a spiritual way, a plane or place in which he feels most harmonious and which will be most conducive to his proper growth. He will then seek out a family and a community and make his presence and his wishes known. They in turn will, through the power of their minds, project energy, and build for him a body in which he can enter and thrive upon this planet.

This is somewhat like your materialization seance, but in a much more advanced and practical form, inasmuch as the participants themselves, or as you call them, the mediums, actually become the parents of the new born materialized being. Sometimes however the newly entered entity is not accustomed to supporting his body in its new environment and it must therefore be from time to time refreshed and rebuilt by his parents. Sooner or later however the newly born individual grasps the idea by using the radiant energy and through his mind will project it into this body and thus keep it alive and vigorous. On your earth planet you must eat foods which are transformed into energy by a reflex digestive system so that your bodies may survive. On Venus however there is no eating in your commonly accepted concept. Our digestion is processed through the mind into our bodies and becomes an automatic process which of course leaves us much more time for the better things of life.

Just in case you may think this a bit preposterous, remember that energy is energy in whatever form it may assume. Your earth scientist has already harnessed the solar energies in countless ways for your comfort and convenience. Even the battery in your automobile has stored energy which was originally sunlight in a bygone age, which came down to you stored up in carboniferous deposits or petroleum, and has been converted back to energy through the process of combustion which turns the generator thus reactivating the battery. As you will easily see by now we have engaged in what is quite likely to turn out to be a very detailed and lengthy dissertation upon our planetary way of life and that it is quite different than your way. You must therefore take it in small doses, if I can so use this term, as I know the limitations of your earth minds and as I would avoid any confusion, therefore let us rest for awhile and I will return after a suitable interval. So until then, this is Mal Var, can I say signing off?
