A soft-spoken personality, John identifies himself as an Essene scholar of Hebrew ancestry and a disciple of the man Jesus.  On occasion, he has identified himself as John, son of Zebedee, and has talked about his experiences as one of the twelve apostles.  His manner of expression is what we would think of as "biblical." both in his language, such as the use of the biblical pronouns ye and thee, and in his many references from that time period.  But John's knowledge is not limited to biblical times.  He is able to give discourse on the spiritual and philosophical knowledge of all ages and cultures and seems to have spontaneous access to such fields as modern physics, medicine, and advanced technology.

Jesus, Joseph and Mary were Essenes, and indeed, Jesus was raised and his earliest trainings were with the Essenes, a fact which can be found at the ancient synagogue at Carmel.


He [Jesus] hoped that, when there would be the time of the diaspora, the scattering or the shattering of the Jewish culture into the nations, that they [the Essenes] could become divine in their own time through the great revelations he had worked.  For at the turning of every age, [just as] ye now have upon thee the so-called Age of Aquarius, ye know that there is great hope for the transformation of the whole of society.  [He had] great hope that the Essenes could be that vehicle.


[responding to a question about traveling to the East]  The man Jesus, [living  with] his family in Nazareth, was known [as the] Messiah.  But it was well known that these individuals traveled for studies and other endeavors.  In his travels he returned to further studies in Egypt and traveled as far as India.  The legend of a Jeshua, and scrolls giving accounts of his travels [there], hold true.

Amidst the historical records it was known that Jesus, having studied in both India and Tibet, and having extraordinary knowledge of the so-called siddhis and meditations there, led him to contemplate that the nature of a Messiah was universal.


The willingness of Jesus to ride into Jerusalem upon an ass is an act of humility rather than an act of great pageantry, like the imperialistic royal chariot seen upon a wall in Egypt, which he surely visited.  So his act became antithetical to the material trapping of kingship.  He took upon himself the fulfillment of prophecy.  One who was truly to be master of the inner kingdom must show the quality of humility spoken of in these prophecies.


[regarding the production of wine at the wedding in Cana]  Some have said that he merely chose sweet water, as the Essenes practiced the symbolic taking of wine (for they did not believe in alcohol).  This became the natural miracle.  However, we say now that the water contained wine.


[regarding the resurrection of Lazarus several days after his death]  Jesus then performed the multiple names of God, precisely in the manner by which Moses parted the so-called Red Sea, calling down similar energies.  This is where it is said that he then shouted in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come forth!"  And so he did, even still wearing the grave clothes.  This was a form not of resuscitation but authentic resurrection and rejuvenation of the physical body.  It was not the glorified body that is spoken of, where the body may achieve physiological immortality.


After teaching forty days, and healing many of the relationships between the disciples, Mary Magdalen indeed took upon herself a marriage.  It did not have to be marriage to the man Jesus, who remained a prophet and chose the path of divine celibacy.  One of his brothers wooed her, within the tradition, for he was something of a romantic.  Since his brother [Jesus] had set her aside, it might even be his responsibility, according to the older laws, to engage her in marriage.

She accepted this proposal and eventually lived her years in a region in France.  There was an Essene community there that later became known as the Cathars.  The Magdalen established the so-called Merovingian lineages of the kings of France and then Europe.  These are the stories attributed to Mary Magdalen, and the birthline of Mary unto those who became European leaders by the bloodlines of Jesus and Mary.


So while he spoke of re-birth and regeneration of the soul through knowledge, wisdom and the Holy Spirit, he spoke most directly of reincarnation.

Jesus taught reincarnation, for when a blind man was brought, his disciples came unto him and said, "Lord, who has sinned, that this man was born blind?"  Jesus said, "Verily, I say unto thee, no person has sinned.  This man has been born blind that God may be glorified."  He spoke to the man, and he could then see.


Ultimately Jesus's incarnation amidst the Essenes came to represent the other lifetimes he has led—33 in total—which we may wish to give comment upon at a latter point in time.  And there were those such as the prophet Cayce has given in discourse.  But these [to follow] are the lifetimes we would concentrate upon, and in particular in relationship to the development of the individual and the origins of the concept of the Christ.  [The lives linked with the following seven names are discussed: Amelius, Adam, Enoch, Job, Melchizedek, Zoroaster, Hanoch.]


[regarding events of upheaval coinciding with the death of Jesus]  Jesus, of course, was not without his followers.  Indeed, did he not feed more than five thousand, in the miracle of the fishes and the loaves?  So at his passing, as word spread, a collective wave, again linked to the principles of psychokinesis, would have caused a great stirring in the earth.


[regarding the resurrection of Jesus]  Regeneration occurred along what would be considered the chakras and neural meridian systems, reconstituting the cell structure even past death and rebuilding the so-called divine body.  This was often the long-held alchemical goal, also of the yogis in the siddhi processes and legends of restored extraordinary longevity.

In this particular case, then, as the body lay in the tomb, resurrection occurred by the reunification of mind, body and spirit even though the body had long passed into what was considered clinical death.  If ye accept the resurrection, not just as a resuscitation but a complete rejuvenation of the body by the life force, then ye should come to understand that there is indeed such a life force—a so-called chi, or energy—or even just the biomagnetic field of the body-physical itself — which can lend itself to the regeneration of the cell tissue.  With this premise everything else becomes clear.

If uncomfortable with the process of prana [or chi] it is perhaps easier to argue for spontaneous resuscitation.
