We are here with you now, and we will help to usher in the New Earth, the new paradigm. You will see many strange things on the way to that point, but don't let it disturb you. Let love be your guiding light and your compass. I am Alan, and I wish you well.

This is a re-do and expansion of something I posted in June of 2021. At the time, I liked the verse, but I didn't realize that there was more to say about it.
This verse, which I quoted from De imitatione christi, is from the Septuagint (LXX). In translation it says: "I will hear what the Lord God speaks in me, for he will speak peace to his people, and to his saints, and to those who turn their hearts toward him." This is also the gist of the Vulgate version, which was translated by St. Jerome from the LXX.
But the Masoretic text, centuries newer than the LXX, has: "Let me hear what God, the Lord, will speak; he will promise well-being to his people, his faithful ones; may they not turn to folly."
The newer, Masoretic text takes away everything that I liked about the older, LXX version. First of all, it omits the phrase "in me," which bespeaks mysticism, always distrusted by institutional religion (but very dear to me). Then it (the JPS English translation) changes "peace" to "well-being." The Hebrew of the Masoretic text clearly says, "peace." Peace is also very dear to me, though apparently not a popular value these days, when war appears to be the solution for everything.
"His faithful ones" are actually "his 'devout,' or 'devoted' ones, even according to the Masoretic Hebrew. Lastly, "may they not turn to folly is, indeed, what the Masoretic Hebrew says, but the older Hebrew text underlying the LXX obviously said "and to those who turn their hearts to him," which is the reading of both LXX and Vulgate. I prefer the older reading because it is more positive, as befits a loving God.
And this, in a nutshell, is the bone I have to pick with modern Bible translations. They have changed many things where there was no need to change, except for fashion or socio-political considerations. These changes make the world a colder, less generous, and more warlike place.

We are here with you to help and guide. There are difficult times coming, but it will all be worth it. There is no going back now. This is the time when the New Earth will be built, and it will be the beginning of a Golden Age. Project love, faith, and well-being for all. The fulfillment of your destiny is also the fulfillment of your world's destiny. I am Alan, and I wish you all peace.

Second Channeling of November 19 2024
There is no individual--we are all one. When this is understood, behavior will change. Separation is an illusion, and what you call civilization is based on this illusion. As the illusion dies, the old paradigm will die with it. In this changeful time, draw strength from all of Nature, with which you are one. What is false will fade away as it is replaced by that which is true.
I am Alan, and I will continue to communicate.
Channeling of November 19 2024
Don't hide from life. You are here for a purpose. Be what you want to see in your world. You are building the new paradigm, co-creating a new reality with many, many others. We are here to help and guide, but you must do this yourselves. By fulfilling your own destiny, you are helping your world to fulfill its destiny. You have no idea how glorious this destiny can be. Be love, be unity, be peace. I am Alan, and I will communicate again soon.

You are multidimensional beings, and you have powers that you don't even know you have. To act ignorantly is contrary to your true nature. To do it because your leaders are ignorant is no excuse. Be your true selves, and follow your true nature and purpose.
I am Alan. Be light, be love, be peace.
My YouTube channel (@dontraxler) is doing better. Thank you!
These statistics are for the month of October, 2024.
Channeling of November 12 2024
There are no accidents. The people in your life are there for a purpose, and you are also in their lives for a purpose. It is time to remember who you are, and what your true purpose is. In this time of great change, your role is more important than ever. We are here to help, and will be with you every step of the way. Draw strength from the sun, from your animal companions, from all of nature, and from each other. Together, you are creating a new reality.
I am Alan. Be love, be unity, be peace, be light.
This blog entry is in lieu of an entry entry in the Aging Project series. In the last entry in that series I wrote pretty much only about the physical side of things. But there is much more to graceful, what I would call successful, aging than that,
Many friends who were a lot younger than me have already departed the planet. Often, it is true, there was a proximate cause that was physical. Too often, it had to do with substance abuse (usually alcohol). But I think we need to look more deeply than that.
When my wife, Sandy, passed away last January, at the age of 83-1/2, she had a host of physical ailments. She had had two bouts of breast cancer, along with two breast surgeries and two courses of chemo treatments, which took a lot out of her. She also had COPD, from smoking for many years. When we went to the US Tennis Open in 2022, the trip almost killed her (she developed a blood clot on her lung). She had an artificial hip and two artificial knees, and wore hearing aids. And she had recently been diagnosed with congestive heart failure. But I've never known anyone with a stronger spirit, or a brighter smile. She loved people, and that's where she got her energy. She was a strong and positive person, which is why she made it to the age she did.
I am two years younger than Sandy would be if she were still physically with us.I have been very fortunate when it comes to physical health. I have no joint replacements, and I take no medications. Unlike Sandy, I get me energy from books and ideas. This means that I am extremely active mentally, and have many interests. I know that some people, especially men, have a problem with retirement, but I never have had one. I've been retired for twenty years, I love it, and I'm never bored. That's the mental side of things.
And then there is the spiritual side of things. Sandy was a positive person and a shining light. She loved everybody, and brought healing rather than division. It isn't always easy, but I am trying to follow her example.

Explanation about Channeling - November 9 2024
I was wondering how this works, specifically how a person who may be from another star system could speak perfect English. This is the answer that I spontaneously received:
"The communication is telepathic, but it utilizes your linguistic skills. We cannot communicate through you in a language that you don't already speak, or beyond the limits of your knowledge of that language."
This was unsigned. I later asked if it was "Alan," and the answer was yes. When I asked Alan who he was, he said that he was known on Earth, but did not wish to reveal his identity. I will respect that.
This explanation about channeling helps me a lot. I am very familiar with telepathy, and quite telepathic. I've been told that this ability is our birthright, if we make ourselves open to it, and is in no way rare or unusual.

You are all beacons of light. The world needs this light, of which you are one of the many sources, but still unique and irreplaceable in your own right. By contributing your light to the world, you are helping to create a future filled with love, unity, and peace.
I am Alan, and I will speak again soon.
Channeling of November 8 2024
An election in the U.S. is not the whole story. We are multidimensional beings. We are all connected. We build our world by our beliefs about our world. Let that sink in. If we live in fear, we will have a world full of fear. If we live in hatred of others, we will have a world full of hate. If, on the other hand, we recognize our connections and choose to live in love, we will have a world filled with love. It is that simple.
I am Alan. I will speak again soon. In the meantime, be that which you wish to see in in your world.
Building the world that you want is not only a matter of visualizing, but it is also a practice of BEING what you desire. If you want peace, you have to BE that peace in your world, among those with whom you come into contact. If you want to see a triumph of the light over darkness, you must be a source of that light.
We are not merely talking about setting an example; we are talking about TRANSFORMATION. As you CREATE the reality that you desire, you are helping others to create it for themselves. You are, in fact, building the New Earth.
I am Alan. I will speak again soon. Be peace, be light, be love for all.
We live in a world where one of the most shocking things we can do is to be in our natural state. This means that we are captives, and not free.
Ita mauri lalonai ta tanobada idoinai edeseni tamona de la tino ohorere gandia ita karaia diba sa kia lalonai ita ede ahua maori. Inai sa tikanga ita sa taunadia, mai asi sa dokoatao lasi.
[This required the use of a few words from the Maori language.]
I decided that a more radical development than Hiri Matamata (New Hiri)was needed, which I call Pune Motu (Pigeon Motu).
