154 Laskon
channeled through Prophet and Caro l y n
Sh e a re r.
Lanello first came to Earth thousands of
years ago from his native Venus after Sanat
Kumara—the brother of Sananda (Jesus) and
sometimes called Earth’s planetary spirit—determined
to save the human race from destroying
itself. Over the centuries Lanello
went through many incarnations, all in fulfillment
of his earthly mission. In his lives, he
has been an Atlantean priest, Noah, Lot,
Amenhotep IV, Bodhidharma (founder of
Zen Buddhism), Aesop, Pericles, Mark the
Evangelist, Lancelot, Saladin, King Louis XIV
(the Sun King), Hiawatha, and Henry
Wadsworth Longfellow, among others.

Laskon
James Hill, who lived on a farm near Seymour,
Missouri, experienced numerous flying-saucer
sightings and contacts with their
occupants, beginning in 1940. The contacts
occurred through his radio or via mental
telepathy. Eventually, a saucer landed, and as
Hill watched, the crew let out a large dog,
which went under a tree and gave birth to
pups. Hill kept one of the Venusian pups,
named Queenie. Hill’s principal contact over
time was with Brother Laskon, a member of
the Solar Tribunal on Saturn.
Ac c o rding to Laskon, Jesus is a fre q u e n t
space traveler who visits the many inhabited
planets. When he is in our system, he stays on
Mars and Saturn, but most of his time is spent
on Venus because of its loveliness. Laskon knew
Bu c k y, an earthman living on Venus and the
f requent contact of another Missouri contactee
(and friend of Hill), Buck Nelson. Laskon also
was able to confirm Chief Frank Buck St a n d i n g
Ho r s e’s trip to the planet Oreon in the summer
of 1959. Saturn, which houses the Solar Tr ibunal,
is a beautiful planet where greatly ad-
vanced, spiritually wise beings reside. T h e
t we l ve Elder Ones who compose the tribunal
“a re the names of all of the prophets in the biblical
times,” Laskon has said (Dean, 1964). Like
Jesus, a senior member of the tribunal, they flew
to Earth in spaceships, spent their time here ,
and then departed in the same way. Mo s e s ,
h owe ve r, lives on Venus, where he serves on the
Su p reme Council. John the Baptist returned to
E a rth in the 1950s and even attended a contactee
convention in Los Angeles in July l959.

Lazaris
Lazaris first spoke to Jach Pursel, a Florida regional
insurance supervisor with no interest in
the New Age or occult, after his wife, Peny,
urged him to meditate as a way of easing jobrelated
stress. Instead of meditating, Pursel fell
asleep. Soon an oddly accented voice was
speaking through him. Though startled and
even frightened, Peny grabbed pen and paper
and started asking questions. The entity said
its name was “Lazaris.”
The channeling continued for years with
Lazaris relating a philosophy rather like that
associated with other popular channeled entities
of the period, including Ramtha and Seth.
In this philosophy, humans are evolving spiritual
beings who need to gain access to the divine
intelligence that is within each of them.
Lazaris became hugely popular, and at the
peak of Lazaris’s fame on the New Age circ u i t ,
Pursel was channeling as much as forty hours a
week, with Pe n y — f rom whom he was now divo
rced—and her new husband managing the
business. Lazaris, who always used the plural
p ronoun when speaking, told writer Jon Klimo,
“We are always in a state of expansion. We have
no boundary. We have no edge of who we are ,
and yet we know who we are. We know where
we begin and end, although there is no
f o r m .. . . We have always been and we will al-
