Chapter 3 --The Drama in The Universe Continues
I could see that as love purifies us, it bares in us those areas most in need of growth.
In this struggle with love, our emptiness and fear are unearthed and pain is released.
As we see and accept ourselves in this process, and understand and respect the others,
we become more aware of our wholeness.
Rick and Louisa Clerici: Sparks from the Fire of Time
Planet Earth was originally created to be a Garden of Eden. As many books on the subject
may tell you, it is the most beautiful planet of its kind in the entire Universe. The reason for this is
because it was originally planned not as a planet for habitation, but rather to be a hideaway
lovenest for both Enjliou and Callia. It’s intent was to be a getaway place from the varied
pressures of Creation and the ‘kids’. That is why it is so unique in the Universe, and indeed in all
of Creation.
It might seem strange to us perhaps that ‘God’ takes a vacation, but remember ‘as above,
so it is below’. Rest points in eternity are important on every level of expression of Soul, whether
it be the higher, more advanced ones, or those who are just beginning to enter into the cycle of
cosmic learning. So it was for the Creator Parents as well. And what better place to rest than on a
small blue and green orb stuck far way from everything, right out in the very corner of the
Universe. Its peacefulness lay not just in its beauty as a dream place to vacation, but also in its
privacy.
Other Universal Beings such as Ramtha, and here again, Schlemmer’s Council of Nine,
echo the same opinion of this planet’s uniqueness:
“. . . your planet Earth is the most beautiful that exists in the Universe. It has a physical
variety that no other planet has. . . . It has aspects of all planets. It is like a composite of the
Universe.”
In the Gnostic Scriptures we find a textual fragment entitled The Uniqueness of the World
that also hints at this uniqueness. The ancient manuscript refers to an early church father named
Basilides and describes his model of the universe in which there are 365 heavens, but only a
single world. This model, interestingly enough, also suggests that the heavens he speaks of are
concentrically arranged about the earth, much as we have described the dimensions of existence
to be arranged around every living thing in Creation. The number of dimensions perceived
depending on the shades of difference where one is willing to draw a line.
Scholar Bernard Layton agrees that the doctrine that the world is unique was a philosophical
commonplace, accepted by Stoics as well as other early schools of Christian thought.
In truth the Earth was also designed as one enormous temple – a monument to the
FATHER, built to harmonize with the universal galactic center, as are all planets, and as can and
will be seen by the ruins evident on Mars and on other planets in other solar systems as we begin
to branch out further into space. The temples built by the various religions, and worshipped in by
so many millions of people each week, are simply smaller versions of the planetary temple. They
are built along the same pattern or gridworks of that of the planet and indeed of the Universe
itself. They are built, however, on a smaller scale and to a lesser degree of energy and of
