BOX
6: Visions of Nuclear Destruction
Number 6 was
terrifying. I was drawn into the box and found myself in a cool,
forested area beside a river. Next to the river was a massive
cement structure, square and foreboding. I was fearful and didn't
know why. Suddenly the earth shook and the top of this cement
structure exploded. I knew it was a nuclear explosion and could
sense hundreds of people dying around me as it took place. The
year 1986 was given to me through telepathy, as was the word
"wormwood." It wasn't until a decade later, when the
Chernobyl nuclear plant exploded near Kiev in the Soviet Union,
that I was able to associate these pictures with an event. It was
then that I made another connection between the vision in this box
and the nuclear disaster in the USSR. The word Chernobyl means
"wormwood" in Russian.
A second nuclear
accident appeared in the box, this in a northern sea so badly
polluted that no ships would travel there. The water was a pale
red and was covered with dead or dying fish. Around the water were
peaks and valleys that made me think I was seeing a fjord like
those in Norway. I couldn't tell where this was, but I knew that
the world was frightened at what had happened, because radiation
from this accident could spread everywhere and affect all of
humankind. The date on the picture was 1995. The vision didn't
stop there. People were dying and deformed as a result of these
nuclear catastrophes. In a series of what seemed like television
pictures, I saw cancer victims and mutated babies in Russia,
Norway, Sweden, and Finland, not hundreds or thousands of people,
but tens of thousands, in a vast array of deformity, going on
through generations. The poisons released by these accidents were
carried to the rest of the world through water, which was tainted
forever by this nuclear waste. The Being made it clear that humans
had created a horrible power that had not been contained. By
letting this power out of their control, the Soviets had destroyed
their own country and possibly the world.
The box showed me
the fear in people's hearts that resulted from these nuclear
accidents. As the images of this fear unfolded, I somehow
understood that environmentalism would emerge as the world's new
religion. People would consider a clean environment a key to
salvation more than they ever had before. Political parties would
spring up around the issue of a cleaner planet, and political
fortunes would be made or broken based upon feelings about the
environment. From Chernobyl and this second accident, I could see
that the Soviet Union would wither and die, with the Soviet people
losing faith in their government and the government losing its
grip on the people.
The economy played a
strong role in these visions. I saw people carrying bags of money
into stores and coming out with small bags of goods. People with
military uniforms wandered the streets in Soviet cities begging
for food, some obviously starving to death. People ate rotted
potatoes and apples, and crowds rioted to get at trucks filled
with food.
The word
"Georgia" appeared in a Cyrillic script, and I could see
a mafia developing in Moscow that I assume came from the state of
Georgia in the Soviet Union. This mafia was a growing power that
was in competition with the Soviet government. In scene after
scene, I saw mafia members operating freely in a city that I think
was Moscow. I felt no joy as I watched the Soviet Union collapse.
Although Soviet-style communism was dying right before my eyes,
the Being of Light was saying that this was a cautious moment
instead of a glorious one. "Watch the Soviet Union," he
said. "How the Russian people go, so goes the world. What
happens to Russia is the basis for everything that will happen to
the economy of the free world."
BOX
7: The Environmental Religion
The 7th box held
powerful images of environmental destruction. I could see areas of
the world radiating energy, glowing like a radium watch face in
the dark. Telepathically I could hear voices speaking of the need
to clean up the environment. These voices came out of Russia at
first, but then the accents changed and I could tell that they
were emanating from South America, probably from Uruguay or
Paraguay. I saw the speaker from Russia as he talked with zeal
about our need to heal the environment. People rallied around him
quickly, and he soon became so powerful that he was elected one of
the leaders of the United Nations. I saw this Russian riding on a
white horse, and I knew that his rise would come before the year
2000.
BOXES
8 and 9: China Battles Russia
In boxes 8 and 9
were visions of China's growing anger toward the Soviet Union.
When these visions took place in 1975, I didn't know that the
Soviet Union would break up. Now I think the tension I saw in that
vision was a result of the death of Soviet Communism, which left
the Chinese the leaders of the Communist world. At the time, the
visions were a puzzle to me. I saw border disputes and heavy
fighting between Soviet and Chinese armies. Finally, the Chinese
amassed their armies at the border and pushed into the region. The
main battle was over a railroad, which the Chinese took in heavy
fighting. They then pushed deep into the Soviet Union, cutting the
country in half and taking over the oil fields of Siberia. I saw
snow, blood, and oil and knew that the loss of life had been
heavy.
BOXES
10 and 11: Economic Earthquakes, Desert Storm
Boxes 10 and 11 came
in rapid succession. They revealed scenes of the economic collapse
of the world. In general terms, these visions showed a world in
horrible turmoil by the turn of the century, one that resulted in
a new world order that was truly one of feudalism and strife. In
one of the visions, people lined up to take money out of banks. In
another, the banks were being closed by the government. The voice
that accompanied the visions told me that this would take place in
the 90's and would be the beginning of an economic strife that
would lead to the bankruptcy of America by the year 2000.
The box showed
images of dollar signs flying by as people pumped gas and looked
distressed. I knew this meant that oil prices were accelerating
out of control. I saw 13 new nations entering the world mark in
the late 90's. These were nations with manufacturing capabilities
that put them on a competitive footing with the U.S. One by one
our European markets began to give their business to these
countries, which slowed our economy even more. all of this led to
a greatly weakened economy.
But the end of
America as a world power came as visions of two horrendous
earthquakes in which buildings were swaying and toppling over like
a child's wooden blocks. I knew that these quakes happened
sometime before the end of the century, but I couldn't tell where
they took place. I do remember seeing a large body of water that
was probably a river. The cost of rebuilding these destroyed
cities would be the final straw for our government, now
financially broken that it would hardly be able to keep itself
alive. The voice in the vision told me that it would be this way
while the images from the box showed Americans starving and lined
up for food.
At the tail end of
box 10 came images of warfare in the desert, a massive show of
military might. I saw armies racing toward one another in the
desert, with great clouds of dust billowing from the treads of
tanks as they crossed the barren ground. There was cannon fire and
explosions that looked like lightning. The earth shook and then
there was silence. Like a bird, I flew over acres of destroyed
army equipment. As I left the box, the date 1990 came into my
head. That was the year of Desert Storm, the military operation
that squashed the army of Iraq for occupying Kuwait.
Box 11 began with
Iran and Iraq in possession of nuclear and chemical weapons.
Included in this arsenal was a submarine loaded with nuclear
missiles. The year, said a voice in the vision, was 1993. I saw
this submarine powering through the waters of the Middle East,
piloted by people I knew to be Iranians. I could tell that their
purpose was to stop the shipping of oil from the Middle East. They
were so praiseful of God, in their speech, that I had the sense
that this was some kind of religious mission. The missiles that
occupied the desert of the Middle East were equipped with chemical
warheads. I don't know where they were aimed, but I do know that
there was worldwide fear of the intentions of the Arab nations
that had them.
Chemical warfare
played a role in a horrible vision of terrorism that takes place
in France before 2000. It begins when the French publish a book
that infuriates the Arab world. I don't know the title of this
book, but the result of its publication is a chemical attack by
Arabs on a city in France. A chemical is put into the water
supply, and thousands drink it and die before it can be eliminated.
In one brief vision, I saw Egyptians rioting in the streets while
a voice told me that by 1997, Egypt would collapse as a democracy and
be taken over by religious fanatics.
The final visions
from box 11 were like many images we now see of Sarajavo: modern
cities crumbling beneath the weight of warfare, their inhabitants
fighting one another for reasons ranging from racism to religious
conflict. I saw many towns worldwide where desperate citizens were
eating their own dead. In one such scene, Europeans in a hilly
region of the world were weeping as they cooked human meat. In
rapid succession I saw people of all five races eating their
fellow humans.
BOX
12: Technology and Virus
The 11th box was
gone and I was into the 12th box. Its visions addressed an
important event in the distant future, the decade of the 90's (remember,
this was 1975), when many of the great changes would take place.
In this box, I watched as a biological engineer from the Middle
East found a way to alter DNA and create a biological virus that
would be used in the manufacture of computer chips. This discovery
allowed for huge strides in science and technology. Japan, China, and
other countries of the Pacific Rim experienced boom times as a
result of this discovery and became powers of incredible magnitude.
Computer chips produced from this process found their way into
virtually every form of technology, from cars and airplanes to
vacuum cleaners and blenders.
Before the turn of
the century, this man was among the richest in the world, so rich
that he had a stranglehold on the world economy. Still the world
welcomed him, since the computer chips he had designed somehow put
the world on an even keel. Gradually, he succumbed to his own
power. He began to think of himself as a deity and insisted on
greater control of the world. With that extra control, he began to
rule the world.
His method of rule
was unique. Everyone in the world was mandated by law to have one
of his computer chips inserted underneath his or her skin. This
chip contained all of an individual's personal information. If a
government agency wanted to know something, all it had to do was
scan your chip with a special device. By doing so, it could
discover everything about you, from where you worked and lived to
your medical records and even what kind of illnesses you might get
in the future.
There was an even
more sinister side to this chip. A person's lifetime could be
limited by programming this chip to dissolve and kill him with the
viral substance it was made from. Lifetimes were controlled like
this to avoid the cost that growing old places on the government.
It was also used as a means of eliminating people with chronic
illnesses that put a drain on the medical system. People who
refused to have chips implanted in their bodies roamed as outcasts.
They could not be employed and were denied government services.
THE
FINAL VISIONS
At the very end came
a 13th vision. I don't know where it came from. I didn't see a
Being of Light bring it forward in a box, nor did I see one take
it away. This vision was in many ways the most important of all
because it summed up everything I had seen in the 12 boxes.
Through telepathy, I could hear a Being say, "If you follow
what you have been taught and keep living the same way you have
lived the last 30 years, all of this will surely be upon you. If
you change, you can avoid the coming war." Scenes
from a horrible world war accompanied this message. As the visions
appeared on the screen, the Being told me that the years 1994
through 1996 were critical ones in determining whether this war
would break out. "If you follow this dogma, the world by the
year 2004 will not be the same one you now know," said the
Being. "But it can still be changed and you can help
change it."
Scenes from World
War III came to life before me. I was in a hundred places at once,
from deserts to forests, and saw a world filled with fighting and
chaos. Somehow it was clear that this final war, an Armageddon if
you will, was caused by fear. In one of the most puzzling visions
of all, I saw an army of women in black robes and veils marching
through a European city. "The fear these people are feeling
is an unnecessary one," said the Being of Light. "But it
is a fear so great that humans will give up all freedoms in the
name of safety."
I also saw scenes
that were not of war, including many visions of natural disasters.
In parts of the world that had once been fertile with wheat and
corn, I saw parched desert and furrowed fields that farmers had
given up on. In other parts of the world, torrential rainstorms
had gouged out the earth eating away topsoil and creating rivers
of thick, dark mud.
People were starving
in this vision. They were begging for food on the streets, holding
out bowls and cups and even their hands in hopes that someone or
something would offer them a scrap to eat. In some of the pictures,
people had given up or were too weak to beg and were curled on the
ground waiting for the gift of death. I saw civil wars breaking
out in Central and South America and the rise of socialist
governments in all of these countries before the year 2000. As
these wars intensified, millions of refugees streamed across the
U.S. border, looking for a new life in North America. Nothing we
did could stop these immigrants. They were driven by fear of death
and loss of confidence in God.
I saw millions of
people streaming north out of El Salvador and Nicaragua, and more
millions crossing the Rio Grande into Texas. There were so many of
them that we had to line the border with troops and force them
back across the river. The Mexican economy was broken by these
refugees and collapsed under the strain.
The
quickest way to change the world is to be of service to others.
Show that your love can make a difference in the lives of people
and thereby someone else's love can make a difference in your
life.By each of us doing that and working together we change the
world one inner person at a time.
