Hi Sleeper,
I'm sorry if you've explained this before, but for the sake of clarification, are "the fear mongers" keeping us from realizing there is life after death?
Is a person's soul somehow weakened by taking certain substances?
Dreams don’t happen by chance they require lots of work, concentration and perseverance----getting high usually dilutes those ingredients necessary for achievement
That reminds me of the poem by Langston Hughes titled "Harlem." What is a person suppose to do when their dream dies. Not everyone can be a superstar. Are people suppose to accept their lack of value in the world?

I've got another unusual question for you and hope you will oblige me. Recently on national news, I watched a video of a tornado destroying property in the midwest. People were running for their lives and screaming. Their terror was palpable. Damn if that "thing" didn't look like it was picking and choosing it's next victim. Does ET have anything to do with this deadly "natural" phenomenon? Do they have the kind of power that could initiate or direct a tornado?
Also, somewhere on the net I've seen a television news channel video of unusual objects that were definitely unidentifiable flying into and out of a tornado, in Texas I believe. I don't have the link unfortunately. Perhaps another ATS member has it and can share it with us.

Yes, it’s like taking the easy way-----where in fact it’s a labyrinth with many dead ends, false promises and for many total despair
If more people realized that life goes on after death and what you do in this life determines what you will do in the next------the world would me a much better place
It takes a strong will to see the truth and only those that are determined will see it

What's wrong with taking the easy way in an attempt to avoid total despair? I'm guessing the easy way is the path to total despair? From what I understand, you're saying pain is necesarry for us to realize our potential, but is it wrong to want to lessen said pain?
Do you have any opinion on Nietzshe's philosophy? By that I mean "eternal recurrence," which promotes the view that life repeats itself exacty the same way over and over again.
Also, you frequently refer to people wanting to be superstars. Are "superstars" our cultures "ubermensh"?
I apologize if you'd rather not discuss Nietzsche. I'll try to connect this more to the thread topic by asking if Nietzsche was privy to same source of information that you (Sleeper) are?
We have freewill and can chose to take it easy should we find ourselves overwhelmed by the crap life throws at us----but somewhere along the line you have to make up for it
I can’t speak for your life specifically and if you are content with who you are then perhaps you are on track-----pain is not a requirement to move ahead in this life or any lives----nevertheless, for some that is the only way
when we fail to achieve a certain thing in this life----and I don’t mean becoming rich and famous---we come back and try it at another angle
Supermen/women----some are souls of a higher order

My point is, suicide is apparently not the answer (unless you're a dis-honored ninja), but a slow suicide (by smoking tobacco and other such things) is at least giving life a shot.
Just to clarify, is that certain thing we are trying to achieve in this life unconditional love (if it is we're all doomed)?
In America at least, our superstars do not seem to be souls of a higher order. Our popular artists (in music, film, and literature, and sports) to not seem to be highly enlightened souls, not that I'm saying who's popular corresponds to higher beings.
Where are all the souls of a higher order hiding and why are they allowing our culture to disappear into meaninglessness?
You say the human race is due to evolve (on a level of counsciousness?) but what can a single person strive for while waiting?
I'm very glad you've responded thoughtfully (and that you might've liked my joke about grinding pixies into dust).

Sleeper, there is quite a bit of discussion these days about Indigo children, and how they are evidence of the spiritual evolution of humans. They reportedly have larger foreheads, and unusually strong psychic abilities. What do you think of the Indigo phenomenon? Have ETs been tinkering with us again?

Sleeper, what is the best way (in your opinion which I hope will be influenced by ET) to improve our ESP skills? I'm serious as a heart attack.
“IMHO, the Hindu concept that there is a point in evolution whereby the soul becomes free from the reincarnational cycle, is inaccurate. There are many discarnates who are not obligated to incarnate. It is really a matter of choice. Past life regression research confirms this.”~ Paul Richard

Sleeper I have been reading this thread from the beginning. I do not believe you or disbelieve you. But I do have a few problems.
One is that you often say "we" are not ready. Due to the fact that we don't believe you 100%. It isn't because we aren't READY, it is because you come on a message board, on the internet, tell us about outrageous experiences and ideas of yours (which this board has seen MANY of them). And then you just expect people to believe you.
We aren't in the Middle Ages anylonger. We want proof. This age is a (semi) age of REASON. Maybe some people are naive and will believe anything posted on this board, but I for one, and I know others are not and will not. I don't believe in the bible either. Why? Because there isn't any proof. Now, I will not go and say everything in the bibe is false, or your story is as well. Why? Because I have no proof
My other problem is. You say, "ET" created everything. They are the masterminds behind everything. So are you saying all the discoveries and projects (Manhatten Project for example), was just a play?
By the way if you are lying, I suggest you stop immediately. If you are telling the truth that is great.
I personally don't care about aliens and god, but many here do, intently. And they will believe ANYTHING. Some would probably have been a member of Heavens Gate and killed themselves. So be careful. Your stories do have influence over some here.
