Part Three (1958 - 73)




November 27, 1963

Kennedy's death has triggered all kinds of things.... As though it had served to trigger one of the movements of transformation of the earth.

There are landmarks of that kind.... Those things are like milestones on a road; the Chinese revolution [in 1911] was like the first milestone, opening up the road. Well, Kennedy's assassination is one of those signs, one of the landmarks—I've been told this.

(After a silence) I remember having asked, "But the earth, the human earth, is it really still so tamasic that it needs tragic events of the sort to awaken its consciousness?..." And I was answered, "Still far more tamasic than you think."

The intelligences that have emerged into a higher light are like stars scattered over a perfectly dark sky—perfectly dark.

But this "trigger" you mention, Kennedy's death, will it precipitate things in the sense of a "shake-up"?

Yes. Its effect is like an electrical discharge that shakes up the tamas, shakes up inertia.
