Channeling - 'Diane from Venus' Spoke about The New Age

This article presents a channeled discourse from 'Diane' as presented in the chapter "On the Meaning of the New Age" in the book Diane — She Came From Venus (1956) by Dana Howard.  Dana wrote in the first chapter: "There is a turning point in every human life . . . The turning point in your author's life came sixteen years ago when she first stepped out of a holocaust of sacred fire and was 'ostensibly' teleported to the Planet Venus."  Other blog articles about channeling case chronologies include "Channeled Communication about The New Age - Ten Documented Cases".  Readers who are newcomers regarding the annals of transcendental communication might consider what may be learned in several introductory blog articles about 'channeling.'  (1, 2, 3, 4)  In a recorded radio interview Paulina Peavy is heard to say while going in and out of trance: ". . . when I think I'm out of the trance (change of voice tone) I'm not.  I mean that their voices and mine sometime are simultaneous."

 

Concerning phraseology and idiosyncratic philosophical aspects verbalized by a particular 'channeled entity,' one transcendental communicator has commented: ". . . we who have to use earthly instruments such as this one have to contend with the mind and prejudices of that instrument.  (article)  It is like pouring water into a mind . . . And if you pour water into a vessel that is shaped round, the water will be round-shaped in that vessel.  Therefore the words that we pour through human instruments are certain to take the shape of the mind of that instrument, although the essence of that message may well remain.  This is our difficulty.  Some instruments are better than others.  Psychic gifts are not necessarily spiritual.  It is a gift that is like music.  Remember this.  Not all those who are endowed with the gift of music may lead lives that are exactly spiritual in nature.  We make use of what material is available.  Therefore, place not people upon pedestals in your exploration.  Assess them and know them." 

ON THE MEANING OF THE NEW AGE from
PART TWO of Diane — She Came From Venus: 

THE DISCOURSES OF DIANE

The morning light streaming in at my window announced the coming of another new day.  The view reaching across the wide expanse of desert helped me hook up with the subjective domains — to extend the dimensions of my mind.  The electrical charge going through my body told me SHE would be here in a moment.  Would she come in vision?  Would I hear the softness of her golden voice?  Would I view her shadowy form?

"Good morning, Child of Earth," she greeted warmly, her voice meeting my mind over the ether waves.  "Today I shall discourse on the coming New Age.  For many long years, my daughter, earthman has envisioned the beginning of the new epoch, a day of transition when all things would be made new.  Every inch of man's creation can feel the deep, unstilled yearning of the cycle ahead.

"The time is not long, now.  The dawn of the spiritual dispensation—so long withheld—you will soon behold.  Earthman cannot reach much farther on the ladder of materialization.  He has spanned the dizzying heights.  Now he must start his rapid descent.  His ascent has been slow.  His descent will be speedy.  From that point he will then start his ascension to higher states of usefulness.  No longer will he strive for material eminence, for power over his fellowmen . . . for possessions will soon pall — for he will have seen the folly of his ways.  He will seek just as earnestly for truth, justice and goodness as he has sought for the goods of the earth.

"The coming of the New Age is long overdue, delayed by earthman refusing to look beyond his own little self for inspiration and guidance.  Though he has preached 'the glory of God in the highest, on Earth Peace and Good Will toward Men,' this beautiful concept has not been enthroned in his heart.

"No, Child of Earth, when the New Age dawns man will no longer seek the sterile and the barren, all of which he has created in his small mortal mind; he will strive to be fruitful, to elevate himself and those around and about him.  He will challenge his contestants to the highest celestial realms.  The world he has nourished with sensuality, with greed and avarice, with lust for power, will no longer spread its despicable seeds.  They will fall on arid soil.  The banquet table that has fed his pompous vanity will be carried away.  His hunger will be a spiritual hunger, his thirst a spiritual thirst.  He will offer thanks for every precious drop of spiritual nectar that touches his hot, parched lips.

"Look down the long road of earthman's stumbling past, my daughter.  You wlll be sickened with the nauseating stupidities of humankind on earth.  You will look askance at the greed-built structures.  To these earthman must light the fires of destruction that he may not be forced to look upon the monstrosities he has created.  I am sure he will not wait for them to crumble into dust, mired down with mud and debris.  He will reduce them to ashes as rapidly as he can do so.  Knowing beyond all shadow of doubt that he has built his human temple on insecure foundations, he will no longer wish to look upon them.  Too, he will view with disdain the ritualistic serfdom he has dared to call equality.  Having elevated himself  above his fellowmen, he will know that the feudal system of the Middle Ages had never passed into oblivion.  It has only been changed in the content of the word.  Earthman of today has shown but little more mercy than the feudal overlords of days gone by.  When he sees himself in the role of the master, whip in hand, ready to lash out at the least provocation, he will then realize that his ignoble urges are no different from the master and slave precepts born and bred in the childhood of the cycle.

"Child of Earth, if there are any doubts left in your mind, go back into your histories and recount earthman's great conquests.  These conquests he thought so noble . . . what have they amounted to?  Have they not all fallen by their own weight?  Have not your great civilizations been reduced to ashes?

"Today the centuries have fled and the sun is again coming up over the wooded hills.  The time will soon be at hand for those ON HIGH to descend earthward.  You will find it in your sacred scriptures: 'The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of His Christ . . .'  Rev. 11:15.

"Yes, Child of Earth, we of the Greater Planets are the messengers of The New Age.  We are the angels mentioned so often in your sacred writings.  We have come to help wing in the new heaven and the new earth.  We have come to help prepare for that glorious inheritance which will one day be yours to enjoy.  It has long been decreed that a roadway should be established between your planet and ours.

"Be it known, Child of Earth, through all the long centuries our watchtowers have never been deserted.  The lights from our incandescent lamps have never ceased burning.  In your darkest hours our sights have been upon you.  Now again we have sent our silvery ships into your atmosphere and seas.  Your noble Red Man knew us in vision.  He saw us in The Morning Star.  His own majestic forebears have long since taken up residence on our lofty planet.  This has been told to you by our Brother Blue Cloud.

"Today, new conditions confront us just as they confront the Planet Earth.  Since we are the upper arc of your planet we too are destined to go on to higher realms.  Our work is soul-enfranchisement, our creed equal justice for all the peoples of the universe.  This is why we wish to come now in all glory that your sin-clad earth might be purified, that fertile seeds might be planted over every inch of the globe's surface.  No longer must earthman harken to the voice of false leaders.  No longer must his premise be words that have lost their meaning.  In your new dispensation mankind must listen to the voice of his heart.  Only then can he exemplify his beautiful yuletide hymn 'Glory to God in the Highest, On Earth, Peace and Good Will Toward Men.'

 

"On your unhappy planet, the heart and soul of every man is crying out for a new way of life.  Every man is seeking, consciously or unconsciously for something beyond his ineffectual religions to help him toward a larger understanding.  He wants something more tangible than the faith he has been taught to embrace.  He wants something he can see, and feel and touch.  When he finds that which he is seeking, then he will have bridged the gap of centuries.

 

"Child of Earth, in the New Age, whose dawn you now behold, earthman will be lifted to higher arcs of usefulness.  His credo will be: 'Do not fear God . . . but love thy brother.'  When his intelligence is awakened then he can be entrusted with the secrets of space travel.  He will be taught in the ways of a greater science.

"Transition time is rapidly approaching.  That which was set into motion at the beginning of the cycle will be made manifest and complete at the cycle's ending.  'When will that day come, you ask?'

 

"Transition is ever sharp and sudden.  When the omnipotent moment comes millions will be unprepared.  While earthman's knowledge has increased through the centuries, his wisdom has not.  Though he heralds the coming of 'wonder drugs' as a panacea for the ills of mankind, he has not yet uncovered a remedy for the greatest ill of all — the pollution of the lifestream of human consciousness.  When all this comes to pass — then the transition will follow. 

 

"Child of Earth, we come now that all doubt might be alleviated.  Those who are not prepared cannot rise by themselves.  They need our help.  Signs will be posted along the way.  The word of the New Dispensation will be quickly spread.  Those who are ready will meet us and acknowledge us.  We will appear first in vision, then we will walk down the streets of earth together.  Our guides and our teachers will be without number.  We will be ever watchful that earthman does not stray into the mire of past action.  Every effort will be made to keep him from faltering and prevent him from falling.  He will not err in understanding for we will speak a language all will understand.  Our radiant lights will be beamed over every inch of the earth plane.  None shall be able to cover himself nor hide from the glare.  One by one those who stray will be coerced back toward the paths of righteousness.  It is our hope and our prayer that none shall be lost.

 

"Child of Earth . . . in that day the sick will be healed.  The afflicted will be comforted.  The hungry shall be fed.  This is the New Deliverance — the pathway into the new tomorrow.

 

"May the blessings of Venus shine upon you, Child of Earth.

 

"I am DIANE.  I shall come again."
