      …The atmospheric conditions are not perfect today but I hope I have got across what I am trying to say to you. In the first book it must have seemed as though I was criticising so many areas of your world, but I have to de-construct before I can construct: I have to tell you what is wrong before I can tell you how to put it right. This second book is about putting it right – a practical guide to changing your world. It is about practical things that ordinary men and women can do to change your world so that we can get in; so that God, if you like, can reclaim His children by re-connecting with them in a stronger way than He does now.

      I had better explain that: most souls are not aware that they are part of God. God is always connected to them; God has never lost them. They have lost themselves; they have placed themselves in an area of deprivation through thought, through volition, through perception. It is not that God needs to reconnect with His children – His children need to reconnect consciously with Him.

      …Are there any questions on the subject I have spoken about today?

      David: It seems to me that people get into what I call a ‘feedback loop’ and they keep feeding the violence and the depression and really what you are saying is that they need to break that feedback loop and set up a new one in the other direction. So, instead of it enforcing negativity, it needs to enforce positivity – and this is the difficulty in breaking the feedback loop from our point of view.

      Joseph: That is exactly it. There is an analogy I would like to give. Most children at one stage or another reach out their hand and touch fire and then very quickly learn that that is not the thing to do, and that knowledge remains with them for the rest of their incarnation. The analogy is that in the Fall the souls involved, in effect, ‘touched fire’ – created fire around themselves – but kept touching fire to the point where it numbed them… so they expected to touch fire, they expected pain because that is what they had created. And you are quite right – it is a circle, it is a cyclic pattern of degradation and of upset.

      Built into the human consciousness is an expectation of life being miserable now: of life bringing people illness and violence; that they should fear for their existence and for their next meal and for a bed to sleep in and a house to live in. This has taken place for so long that it is indeed a cycle and souls are reborn into it because their expectation is so strong that, when they come to the spirit side of life, the teams of people here who work with them to try and change their perceptions cannot get in. The best they can do (and here there is another analogy I can make) is to pack a ‘suitcase’ for those souls that is loaded with ‘good things’ so that they can take that suitcase into their next incarnation and open it at pre-determined points in order to learn the lessons that will move them away from the cycle they have got themselves into.

      So, yes, we have to break, or, rather, you have to break – I cannot do it for you – you human beings have to break the cycle. But in order to do that you first have to recognise that a cycle is there and that is one of our most difficult tasks – teaching you to perceive things as being wrong. Most people shrug their shoulders and get on with life and say: ‘Well, I have had a good innings. I am now ill, I am now dying, I haven’t any money, things are wrong with me,’ and accept it. Our task is to say: ‘Don’t accept it – it is a lie. Don’t accept it – you can regenerate, you can heal yourself; you can heal this world!’

      You are not at the mercy of the Field, you are not at the mercy of society – you are at the mercy of yourself; you decide what happens to you, although mostly subconsciously. What is happening to you today has been decided by your past actions, perhaps in another lifetime. You are experiencing what you are experiencing presently because your past actions have placed you in your present circumstances so that you can learn from them… what is happening to you now – how you approach it and how you transmute it – is for the good of your soul. And that is ironic, isn’t it, because you would say that in most lives people are simply enduring their experiences, and learning from them for the good of their soul is the last thing on their minds. As guides we try to make people see the truth of their situation, try to make them react in different ways, to evolve spiritually, but we can often only influence them from within, via their intuition, by a tiny degree during each life and over the course of many lives. I have to correct myself because, of course, there are many souls who do self-illuminate during their lives and then pass onto higher spheres of consciousness or, bravely, as you have done [Michael: Joseph is referring to the sitters], choose to come back to teach the others what they have learned.

      There is an analogy with you saying ‘cycles’, David, where you could say that you are driving a car and that the wheels are going forwards all the time and what I am trying to teach you is to put the brakes on, because if you put the brakes on you might be able to pull off the motorway into a beautiful little spot, a beautiful lay-by, and see things in a different way.

      First you have to put the brakes on. The speed of your world is burning up the physical body; is burning up the planet; you are running out of resources. You are running out of mental resources because all you think of doing is to build another chemical plant or make another material that defoliates the world or uses up the oil supplies.

      You are running out of ideas. We seek to provide you with new ideas to ensure that the balance is changed on this Earth. We don’t often say this but, looking at your world from a spiritual point of view, we see almost a blackened cinder – the vibrations of the Earth are so dense. I know that from space your world looks like a jewel but that is its spirit shining out. If you were to look at it on a level of spiritual perception of the human Field it would seem to you to be twisted, painful, misty and dark.

      And that is why communication with the spirit worlds is so difficult, because in order to talk to you we have to bring Light-energy with us – there is not enough Light on your level to sustain communication. The difficulty lies not in you struggling to perceive us as nebulous ‘ghosts or spirits’, it lies in a dependency on our Light to allow communication to take place, because yours alone cannot sustain it. We, therefore, have to generate a great deal of power. That is why we always say at services [Michael: a reference to spiritualist services] that people should join together to produce Light …but they don’t; they only take. Spirit communication should be (and is intended to be) a staple part of everyday life on Earth. It was once – it was in my time – and it has to be again.

      Is there anything else you would like to discuss?

      Jane: You said that God doesn’t know anything of suffering but does He suffer when we suffer? Is He aware of every individual’s suffering?

      Joseph. He is aware of the predicament of each of His children but by His nature He is joy, He is upliftment, He is creativity and Light. So His problem, if you like (if God can have a ‘problem’) lies in trying to give the best to His children but not being able to present it to His children in the form that it exists in because the Light that God is will not ‘fit’ into the human soul. The human soul is below that Light and has to come upwards to that Light. God cannot diminish what He is – He simply IS. He does not seek to diminish Himself or change Himself in that way.

      The children of God need to expand, to open themselves up to His goodness, and so God ‘drip-feeds’ opportunities to learn to His children. He places opportunities in front of them that strangely, very often through suffering, break away that suffering and lift the soul upwards. He has to communicate with them on their level as well as His but He cannot give them the Light that is on His level as it is. It would blind them. It would destroy them. They are vessels that cannot contain that Light as it is, so the Light has to be slowed down; the Light has to be ‘darkened’, and it is through experience that God brings back His children to His home.

      Does God weep for His children? God’s children – a part of Him weep – so He is weeping. God’s children suffer – so He is suffering. But there are multiple levels to God’s consciousness and God is aware on many levels: God can see His child as what it was – a part of Him; as what it is – a part of Him; and as what it will be – a glorious part of Him all at the same time. So the suffering that you
