Don Juan talks about the next natural enemy to becoming a man of knowledge. “Clarity! That clarity of mind, which is so hard to obtain, dispels fear, but also blinds. It forces the man never to doubt himself. It gives him the assurance he can do anything he pleases, for he sees clearly into everything. And he is courageous because he is clear, and he stops at nothing because he is clear. But all that is a mistake; it is like something incomplete. If the man yields to this make-believe power, he has succumbed to his second enemy and will fumble with learning. He will rush when he should be patient, or he will be patient when he should rush. And he will fumble with learning until he winds up incapable of learning anything more.” This sounds like a kind of arrogance, that the being defeated by clarity is one who thinks himself, falsely, as enlightened—falsely complete. Don Juan says, “He will no longer learn or yearn for anything.” Sounds like a lot of atheists and skeptics! (Which we know the ETs are.) The antithesis of humility. What is Creator’s perspective?

Castaneda asks how to avoid being defeated by clarity. Don Juan responds, “He must do what he did with fear. He must defy his clarity and use it only to see, and wait patiently and measure carefully before taking new steps; he must think, above all, that his clarity (his enlightenment?) is almost a mistake. And a moment will come when he will understand that his clarity was only a point before his eyes. He will know at this point that the power he has been pursuing is finally his. He can do with it whatever he pleases. His wish is the rule. He sees all that is around him. But he has also come to his third enemy, Power!” Fear and clarity (or arrogance) can interfere with obtaining true power. What is Creator’s perspective on Don Juan’s recipe for overcoming the second natural enemy to enlightenment—clarity?

Don Juan talks of the third natural enemy to enlightenment: “Power is the strongest of all enemies. And naturally the easiest thing to do is to give in; after all, the man (or the being) is truly invincible. He commands; he begins by taking calculated risks, and ends in making rules, because he is a master. A man at this stage hardly notices his third enemy (power) closing in on him. And suddenly, without knowing, he will certainly have lost the battle. His enemy (power) will have turned him into a cruel, capricious man. Such a man has no command over himself, and cannot tell when or how to use his power.” The mistake, it appears, is thinking the power is HIS to use as he pleases. He thinks he owns the power, rather than being a steward of it. What is Creator’s perspective?

Castaneda asks Don Juan how to defeat the third enemy to enlightenment—power. Don Juan responds, “He has to defy it, deliberately. He has to come to realize the power he has seemingly conquered is in reality never his. He must keep himself in line at all times, handling carefully and faithfully all he has learned. If he can see that clarity and power, without his control over himself, are worse than mistakes, he will reach a point where everything is held in check. He will know when and how to use his power. And thus he will have defeated his third enemy.” Is it safe to assume that all the fallen angelics and ET Alliance members have been defeated by the enemy, power, if not by clarity (or arrogance) and fear, that NONE of them have “control over themselves?” What is Creator’s perspective?

In all the questions asked so far, there was no mention of divine partnership. It seems Don Juan was giving a tutorial on how to achieve enlightenment without Creator’s assistance, which is apparently something very few can ever manage on their own. How does partnership with the divine, using Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol, make the genuine attainment of enlightenment, and the defeat of the enemies of enlightenment, possible for the many, instead of the intrepid few?

In a previous radio show exploring sudden psychic abilities, Creator said that only one in 50,000 people had profound psychic abilities, and were universally on mission lives to be endowed with this capability. Why so very, very few? Is this small number about the size the Extraterrestrial Alliance will tolerate? What can Creator tell us?

Is another reason there are so few, because of the divine injunction against forcing non believers to change their belief by providing overwhelming evidence, as opposed to a free will exploring of ideas, rather than imposition of belief? One of the reasons skeptics seem to have an easy time dismissing such extraordinary abilities is their incredible rarity in the population. What can Creator share with us?

Dr. Gary Schwartz of the University of Arizona has spent much of his career exploring paranormal phenomena shunned by the vast majority of his colleagues. He is the author of numerous books on paranormal topics and has conducted a number of high-profile experiments with astonishing results. It’s almost a miracle in its own right that he has avoided scandal and has managed to retain his employment as a tenured faculty member. Were his career and the careers of his close compatriots protected and facilitated by the divine realm? Why are there so few like Gary Schwartz as such open-minded academic scholars appear to be even rarer than the mediums he’s studied? What can Creator tell us?

Dr. Schwartz and colleagues conducted a number of experiments with high profile mediums in the late nineties that resulted in both a book, The Afterlife Experiments: Breakthrough Scientific Evidence of Life After Death, and an HBO special entitled “Life Afterlife.” The experiments were conducted in such a way, that no truly objective mind could dismiss the findings as essentially proving beyond a reasonable doubt, that these mediums were legitimately able to see, hear and communicate readily with the dead. What is Creator’s perspective?

The HBO special “Life Afterlife” was another story, however. Dr. Schwartz wrote: “HBO had made a beautiful, inspiring show. But the science was sandwiched in the middle and lost nearly all its impact. We had expected that the show would leave the audience feeling ‘Science can be brought to bear on these issues,’ and ‘Wow, those mediums were tested by science and actually were found to be doing what they claimed.’ Instead, the show was good entertainment but little more. We had thought HBO really cared about the science, but discovered what the producers most wanted was to see how many people were crying when the lights went up. After all, HBO didn’t really care about making a scientific statement.” In fact, HBO had given almost as much air time to skeptics, as they did Dr. Schwartz’s experiments. The producers apparently believed they were being “professional and fair” giving equal time to skeptics and therefore creating a “balanced” presentation. But in this case, it seems a “balanced” presentation is simply sinister. What is Creator’s perspective?

During the experiments, at one point Dr. Schwartz’s own mother was trying to come through and was overpowering the other dead people who were scheduled to make an appearance. This seemed to convey how little actual “control” the medium had over the channels of communication. It seemed the dead were more successful at establishing and controlling the boundaries of communication than the medium himself. Is this one of the reasons why divine partnership is so critical when one works with non-local consciousness?

Also, during the experiments, there were a few occasions where one medium or another simply could not communicate with the dead people associated with a particular sitter. They simply got “nothing” the way most people would. Yet, a different medium would have no trouble with that sitter at all. It was summed up as the particular medium simply “wasn’t right” for that particular sitter. Yet that medium would have profound success with other sitters. Can Creator explain why this “all or nothing” anomaly occurred?

One thing notably absent from the experiments was the entire notion of reincarnation. Nor was there any distinction made, or awareness of different states or conditions the dead might be communicating from. We know that one of three who die end up in limbo. Yet all the dead communicating appeared to be doing so from the same “place.” What was the reality of the dead in that set of experiments? Were all in the light? If so, were rescues performed for some prior to the experiments, and if so, by whom? Did the experiment itself act as a kind of “rescue entreaty” that enabled the divine to step in and “set the table” ahead of time? Or, indeed, were some in the light and some in limbo, even though there was no indication of such status during the experiments? What can Creator tell us?

The question of corruption is a compelling one. The mediumship on display and being tested in the experiments was “garden variety” in the sense it was focused on family and personal relationship issues more than anything, and therefore presumably of little interest to the interlopers. However, if the experiment had attempted to explore more expansive issues, such as GetWisdom explores, would extraterrestrial psychics have “jumped in” and taken over the channel much like Dr. Schwartz’s own mother did?

Dr. Schwartz wrote about what he called “skeptomania” and “voodoo skepticism.” He wrote, “It’s one thing to be skeptical – open to alternative hypotheses. It’s another to be devoutly skeptical – always ‘knowing’ that cheating, lying, fraud, and deception are the explanations for any not-yet-explainable phenomena.” Can Creator share with us how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol can help reduce the ranks of the “devoutly skeptical?”
