Man’s Responsibility
by the Master —, through Benjamin Creme

From the earliest times, mankind has feared the natural disturbances of our planetary home. Cataclysms of unimaginable ferocity have destroyed huge areas of the Earth’s surface over and over again. This fact is hard for many to accept and raises, always, grave doubts in the minds of many religious people about the veracity of God’s love for humanity. How can we believe in a loving God who allows thousands of people to be killed in earthquakes, tsunamis and the rest? Were humanity to understand their own involvement in such planetary destruction, they could play a significant role in preventing its occurrence.

The Earth’s crust, as it has evolved over the ages, is not single and evenly spread around the world. As is well known, it takes the form of various plates at different depths, which overlap and are in relatively constant movement. Countries and cities which lie on or near the plate edge, or fault-lines, are consequently subjected to earthquakes and, if near oceanic regions, tsunamis. It is not a question of God’s love failing humanity but of seismic pressure which must be released. What, we may ask, causes seismic pressure to grow to such a destructive extent?

Be a Lighthouse – the Path of Service
Man is made to serve both God and Man, and only through that correct service can the path to God be trodden. Each man is a lighthouse and sheds abroad his light for his brother. Make bright your lamp and let it shine forth and show the way. All are needed, every one. No one is too small or young to take part in this great Plan for the rescue and the rehabilitation of our world. Resolve to do this and be assured that My help will not be withheld. How to start? Begin by dedicating yourself and all that you are and have to the service of your brothers and sisters everywhere. Make sure that not one day passes without some act of true service and be assured that My help will be yours. This, the Path of Service, is the only path for True Men, for it is the path which leads them to God.

Advertising in the Northwest region
  Since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, which has limited SI-USA groups’ in-person outreach activities, such as talks and expo booths, co-workers in the Northwest region have brought our message of hope to many people throughout the region in a variety of other ways – including advertising. From small towns to big cities in Washington state, Oregon, and northern California, co-workers have published print ads in newspapers; website ads on newspaper websites; ads in free e-newsletters offered by newspapers; and sponsored content (articles on the Reappearance that we pay to place on websites). These forms of advertising refer to, or link directly to, the Northwest region’s website – www.Shareinternational-west.org – which offers an in-depth overview of our message, especially via videos. The newspapers and websites chosen for advertising were in most cases recommended by co-workers in the region who were familiar with the specific publications. If readers of this e-newsletter have recommendations on publications where we might advertise – in the Northwest region and throughout the US – please send an email with your recommendations.
In case you missed it: On September 15th we sent you an email ‘Explore Our New Website and Other Online Features’ to alert you to our remodeled US website, more sources of information and tools for outreach. If you haven’t yet read the announcement, please check your email for this date.

Transmission Meditation

Q&A with Benjamin Creme

Q. Is Transmission Meditation sufficient in the field of service, or should other forms of service come with it?

A. Transmission Meditation will be sufficient for the whole of your service life, if you apply yourself sufficiently to it. But there is a world out there to save, and a thousand different ways to serve. It need not be the totality of service. You will find that whatever else you do – any other form of meditation, of service, of activity – will be potentized by doing Transmission Meditation.

We encourage you to first learn about Transmission Meditation from the sources below and then connect with the meditation group coordinator for your region (see regional links above). During Covid, groups are temporarily not meeting in person but via Zoom link. If you would like to participate in one of these weekly online meditations – which includes one during the monthly full moon period – please email your name, city and state using our contact page.
