Richmond IONS May 2023 Meeting

“The ETs Speak: Who We Are and Why We’re Here.”

OurJuly 15, 2023, program will feature a talk by Howard Batie, retired Naval Officer and Certified Hypnotherapist, on his book, The ETs Speak. Are we alone in the Universe?

That question has been answered definitively by the thousands of UFO sightings that are reported around the world every month, and the answer to the question is No. The bigger questions we should now be asking are: Who Are They? Why Are They Here In Our Skies? What Are Their Intentions?

These are the really important questions that can be answered only by the ETs themselves. With the help of an advanced form of Hypnosis developed by the author, we are beginning to receive the answers to these and other related questions by “interviewing” the ETs directly.

What we are told is that they, the ETs, have come here to assist us by working alongside us humans as we, with their advanced technologies and training, use new devices gifted by them to remove the radioactivity and pollution from our oceans, cleanse our atmosphere, teach us new methods of physical and emotional healing, strengthen our bodies and increase longevity through natural nutrition, and many other improvements.

In order to work alongside us, the ET races have decided to introduce themselves to us physically in several First Contact events in many countries around the world. Humanity will soon be asked to leave its childhood behind and quickly mature into a civilization that reaches for the stars in concert with its Galactic Brothers and Sisters.

The real purpose of Howard’s book is to introduce humanity to some of the ET civilizations we will physically meet during First Contact by providing us with advance information about who they are, what star systems they are from, why they are here, and how they are planning to assist humanity as we, with their help, ultimately join our Galactic mentors and friends and emerge into a space-faring civilization.

So there will be no confusion, please note that this new ZOOM-only speaker series is in addition to our traditional third-Saturday-of-the-month meetings, which are both in-person and online via ZOOM and include a potluck lunch.

Description:

The nature of our modern world has many of us experiencing great grief and anxiety for the future of our children and planet. As a result, many also may be awakening to the need for a greater sense of authenticity and connection to something greater than themselves, and/or sensing a great transformation is in process. Yet the way forward is unclear.

In this engaging talk, Susanna Calvert presents a developing framework for an inclusive and practical approach to modern spirituality to scale (for all). Broadly applicable core beliefs, tenets, and practices will be discussed, applied, and practiced as one way to begin creating the heaven on Earth that we all dream about.
