at the behaviour of other animals, dogs for example never wage war on an
international scale. No other animal does, only the human animal. It is the
human animal that turns other animals into fighters. It is only the human
animal that turns its own into fighting machines, trained to kill their fellow
human. If one were to attend to their own business in cooperation with their
fellows, why would there be the need for such power struggles. Every fight is
instigated by an outside negative influence, outside of the Spirit that is. It
could be the negative influence of the ego, which is constantly seeking
recognition and power. It could be the influence of the ego of another. It could
be the influence through a substance that is being abused. It could be the
influence of the collective negativity of the human race commonly referred to
as the Devil. Children are exposed to this latter influence without being shown
how to recognise it or how to deal with it. They are only shown how to fear it
and how to use it as an excuse for their inappropriate behaviour. Children are
seldom taught to be responsible adults, never mind being taught to be
responsible spiritual adults. We will not go into the causes for war at this time,
but suggest that if the philosophy we are imparting were implemented there
would be no war. War has no place in spiritual philosophy, nor in paradise.

of a world without stress and trouble and fear. If one is to address the basic
needs of it’s corporal state, it will see simple it could be to achieve them.
When you think of a holiday what do you think of? When you break it down it
is usually only respite that you seek, you need to get ‘away from it all’ even
just for a short while. You need to ‘recharge the batteries’ you feel. Why do
you not also see the need to change your life so that you enjoy everyday, and
not rely on your ‘two weeks in the sun’ to placate the need for joy and
happiness being in your life for every day. Notice how you wake every
morning thinking of what it is you have to do that day. Think of how you wake
on the first morning of your holiday, and then remember how you awaken on
the last day of your holiday. Think of how during your holiday you find it hard
to entertain yourself and when you find that interest it is time to prepare to go
home. Finally ask yourself why does it have to be that way. Now think of
