forces that permeate you. You would do well by your people if you take great heed of this lesson and pass on your findings to those of your kind who would listen. The dark force vibrates at a level that is compatible with your brainwave patterns. This much you should already know, but others of your kind have kept it from you. "In spite of this, some, like you, Alec, are building a resistance to this alien intruder. This is one of the reasons why you find yourself thinking differently from the majority around you. It has enabled you to see more clearly the error of your ways and what must be done. You shall continue along this path a while longer yet, and even doubt your own kind from time to time. Be patient. This is all I can suggest, as inadequate as it may sound. We have been working on these things with you for many a year now. All of your people will find their way ae with the passing of time. "As you find with all afflic- tions, they are easier to contend with if you understand them. I am doing my best to explain all this to you in terms you will understand. Please interject from Hy here on if you do not understand ( some point, for we do consider the following to be most impor- tant much to be related on other subjects. "Your societies, right from the very beginning, have engineered fear into your lives. Most of it is an artificial fear of society itself; in other words, you fear your very own laws. Your high priests from long ago shouted down to the common masses, describing what wraths would be set upon them if they did so much as dare to cross the all-mighty gods of their time. Forgive me if I make what you call a 'joke' of this, for these all-mighty gods they describe were people like me or the Guardian, whom you have met. Do you fear me, Alec, from where you stand?" Zeena asked. "I feel no fear," was my answer. "So you see how your masses were manipulated in our absence by those who would gain from it?" she asked again. "I can see how a lie could fool the uneducated," was my reply. ty "And you think your people are “a better educated on this subject today?" she asked once more. "If you ask what we know of God, then perhaps not," I replied. "Exactly my point," Zeena stat- ed. "And so the intimidation goes on, only you have a hundredfold the number of laws today. These are not the laws of Nature, howev- er; just of your manipulators who in turn have been manipulated by the force. "The laws of Nature you break every day as you drive to work in your disgusting machines. It is even more curious to us that you all know these things but you con- tinue to allow them just the same. "Zeena" Why is there not a law against it in your society? Does pollution not kill? Are your people so blind they could not see what would happen with the proliferation of these strange machines? You need not answer, for we know the reasons. This is just, as you might say, an example. "You will perhaps tolerate our confusion, though, when we fail to understand what we have observed in your so-called Western societies in which thousands of your money are spent to save but one life, while millions of your kind die in other far areas for the sake of small amounts of this money. Are you not all one people of the same flesh and blood? For this question, we ourselves do not have such an answer. Could you perhaps help us in the rea- soning of this?" Zeena asked, looking at me in a most perplexed way. "My own people sometimes embarrass and confuse me. No, I have no answer to that question," I replied. "Very well. Why do your people take such time and interest in a single tree, should it be cut down in your cities, while they allow large areas of many-years-old trees to be removed from the forests which are out of their sight? Please take this question home with you to put to others, for we also find this most confusing." Ihave since duly completed that request. Zeena did have some encouraging news. She suggested that the force would soon feel the weight of an invasion from above, and there would be battles fought at sea and underwater, and also in the skies high above. Most would know little about these events, except those caught within the by-product of the battles. By this repr” marten <5 ‘a tant. "Some on your planet have aligned themselves with this ‘force’. Note I have said ‘aligned’ and not ‘allied', for there is a dif- ference. Do you understand this? [I nodded.] They have gained much power from the force, and some are even foolish enough to think they have it under control. This is naive, of course, as the force or alien entity is feeding off these people or, rather, feeding off the conflicts these people create in their bid for wealth and power. As long as this suits the dark force, it shall continue; for the 'fear' emotion is what it lives off. "The easiest way to defeat this force is to remove fear from your societies. This will, in effect, starve it out. It will then go elsewhere, looking for easier prey. You see, your human race is one of the very few that lives with this most unusual thing called ‘emotion’, which is why the force came here in the first place. We, too, had emotions once, so I am told, and some are saying we can now experience them again, thanks to the new breeding pro- gram we are experimenting with. Forgive me, I digress again. "You will find some of your kind are trying very hard to har- ness this most dangerous force. Unfortunately, they do not fully understand that it is an entity in its own right and that this is a very dangerous mistake to be making. They think they are play- ing a game and that they are winning this game. We have tried to warn your people more than once in the past, but no heed has been taken. As your people say, ‘it is your life’. "The worry we have is that your planet breathes with you, in harmony even with your thoughts. To attack the people by using the force in this way is to attack the planet. Be it on your own heads if you invoke the wrath of your planet. There would be lit- tle or nothing we could do for your people should that happen. Perhaps you can help us with this message. We have an idea to put to you, but that shall keep until another time, for there is still "Zeena" 62 = NEXUS FEBRUARY - MARCH 1997
