The Original Teachings | Lee Brown c. 1986 (excerpt)
Native people have many prophecies about this time. They say at the beginning of each cycle of time, the Great Spirit comes down through a messenger. He makes a strong appearance upon the Earth, and we are coming to the end of a cycle now. It’s not the first cycle. There was a cycle of spirit. There was a cycle of the mineral. The rock. There was a cycle of the plant, and now we’re in the cycle of the animal—coming to the end of that and beginning the cycle of the human being.
When we get into the cycle of the human being, the highest and greatest powers that we have will be released to us, and be released from that light or soul that we carry to the mind. But right now we’re coming to the end of the animal cycle, when we have investigated ourselves and learn what it is to be like an animal on Earth.
At the beginning of this cycle of time, long ago the Great Spirit came down and he made an appearance. He gathered the peoples of the Earth together, they say on an island that is now beneath the water. And he said to the human beings, he said “I’m going to send you to four directions, and over time I’m going to change you to four colours. But I’m going to give you some teachings, and you are going to call these the Original Teachings. And when you come back together with each other, you will share these, so that you can live and have peace on Earth. And a great civilization will come about.”
And he said during this cycle of time, “I’m going to give each of you two stone tablets,” and he said, “when I give you those stone tablets, don’t cast them upon the ground, because if any of the brothers and sisters of the four directions and the four colours cast their stone tablets on the ground, not only will the human beings have a hard time, but almost the Earth itself will die.” And so he gave us each a responsibility, and we call that the guardianship. And to the Indian people [to the east], the red people, he gave the guardianship of the Earth. And we were to learn during this cycle of time, the teachings of the Earth and the plants that grow from the earth, and the foods that you can eat, and the herbs that are healing, so that when we came back together with the other brothers and sisters, we could share this knowledge with them, because something good was to happen on Earth.
And to the south he gave the yellow race of people the guardianship of the wind, and they were to learn about the sky and breathing, and how to take that within ourselves for spiritual advancement. And they were to share that with us in this time.
And to the west with its blackness of night, he gave the black race of people the guardianship of the water, and they were to learn the teachings of the water, which is the chief of the elements. It is the most humble and also the most powerful.
And to the north where there is white snow on this continent, he gave the white race of people the guardianship of the fire. And if you look at the center of many of the things they do, you will find the fire. In this light bulb they say that is the white man’s fire. If you look at the center of a car, you will find a spark. If you look at the center of the airplane, the train, you will find the fire. And the fire moves. Also consumes. This is why it was the white brothers and sisters that begin to move upon the face of the Earth and reunite us as a human family. Because they had the guardianship of the fire, this was their responsibility.
And so a long time passed, and the Great Spirit gave each of the four races two stone tablets. Ours are kept at the Hopi reservation in Arizona at Four Corners area. I’ve talked to people from the black race of people; their stone tablets are at the foot of Mount Kenya. … The stone tablets of the yellow race of people are kept by the Tibetans in Tibet. And the guardians of the traditions of the people of Europe are the Swiss. In Switzerland they still have the mask day when each family brings out its mask. They still know the colours of their families. They still know their symbols, some of them.
Each of these four peoples happen to be people that live in the mountains. If you went straight through the Hopi reservation to the other side of the world, you would come out in Tibet. The Tibetan word for sun is the Hopi word for moon, and the Hopi word for moon is the Tibetan word for sun, because they’re on opposite sides of the world. They said that the roads of this land would either go north-south, or they would go east-west. If they went north-south, we would come together as brothers and sisters. If they went east-west, there would be destruction, and almost the Earth itself would have a hard time. So you all know the roads went east-west. They said things then would be lost from the East to the West; they would be lost from the South to the North. But they would come back from the West to the East, and come back from the North to the South.
So in 1976 from the west to the east coast of this land, from San Francisco to Washington, D.C., people carried the sacred pipe bundle by hand on foot across this land, because they said if we carry this bundle across the Earth, the powers [will] begin to come back. It was carried from west to east. They said a spiritual fire would be lit in the north, and it would come down the northwest coast of this land. This is it. We have the capacity to start the spiritual fire now here.

What happened in 1976? A Course In Miracles was first published in three volumes in June, 1976, by the Foundation for Inner Peace. The silent Voice who dictated this great work to Helen Schucman is said to have been Jesus. Forgiveness is the goal of the Course. “Through forgiveness the thinking of the world is reversed.” (p. xiii)
And then in 1977, astronomers discovered Chiron the Wounded Healer, an icy asteroid orbiting the Sun between Saturn and Uranus. The discovery of Chiron coincided with the mind-body-spirit movement (that is, the healing movement). The healing movement sprouted up in the West, on the West Coast, namely California. Decades earlier the great yogic sage Paramahansa Yogananda planted the seed by establishing the Self-Realization Fellowship in Los Angeles, California.
From yogananda.org:
The science of Kriya Yoga has been given to humankind to assist our evolution as we struggle to ascend into an age of greater harmony and understanding.
By the definite science of meditation known for millenniums to the yogis and sages of India, and to Jesus, any seeker of God can enlarge the caliber of his consciousness to omniscience to receive within himself the Universal Intelligence of God.
– Paramahansa Yogananda
I find it fascinating that the dark forces of destruction would vilify the very people in this Hopi prophecy who were assigned by the Great Spirit to unite all peoples of Earth, which begs the question—who subverted the movement of fire? ★
"If you look at the bizarre nature, right now, of the people who are administering the campaign of terror on CO2 emissions, and you're watching them let forest fires be started and burned with impunity, you sit back and go well hold on a minute; I thought carbon dioxide was bad? So, why are we increasing the carbon dioxide by taking trees out of circulation? Well, the answer is land re-appropriation. That's what it's about. It's about re-appropriating land, and the best way to re-appropriate land is to have a fire. That has been the case since the Old Testament. This is not a new thing; this has been around for thousands and thousands of years. When humans cannot live on a fair playing field, they use fire, and they use fire to destroy an old appropriation of land and re-appropriate it to a new use." – Dr. David E. Martin

Which begs the question, who's "they"? Who's inappropriately using the fire to steal—ancestral lands in Maui, for example? (8.8.23) Evil people, obviously (i.e. UN & WEF), and, GOVERNMENT PEOPLE. But, who's complying with and falling for the reign of terror? That is, "Climate Change", etc. People of all peoples, last time I checked. The psychopathic white people participating in the perpetration of these crimes against humanity DO NOT represent me, nor do the hoodwinked people. Do the psychopaths and hoodwinked among your people participating in the perpetration of these crimes represent you?
