About Lazaris and the Death of Peny North

July 23rd will be our five year Internet anniversary.

And now, as summer approaches, it is becoming more and more apparent that Lazaris may not have actually "left" Jach, at all.

The more new channeled material that Bobbi and I review from Jach, the more it becomes apparent that what may have gone on (for years) is a partial "psychic numbness" on the part of Jach, due to Peny's tragic behavioral and physical deterioration.

How would your work be effected, if your former wife and, still, close friend deteriorated just so -- in your own home none-the-less?

Here is a recently channeled article by Lazaris: "In Search of the Truer Self"

We find this very powerful and quite reminiscent of the "old" pre-1990 Lazaris.

Could it be that with Peny's dominating and controlling behavior no longer a factor, Jach has the freedom to allow the channeling process to work again, as it once did?

This should be a very social and creative second year, indeed. Our daily hit counts along with our google.com search rankings are, now (how you say?.....ah!): "in orbit". :0) )

Now on to our original introduction.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was a regular long form workshop student of Lazaris, from 1984 to 1992.

For more of that story and other new age consumer information, see our article links at left.

And for those cautious yet still success-directed enough to continue the pursuit of yet "unmapped" spirituality :

How do they get away with it? Isn't it strange we can begin to abandon critical thinking at the first confident claim of alternative health or spiritual authority?

Not really. The trouble is that so few have sufficient free time to effectively research claims made by "new experts". It has been observed that the strength of our desire for knowledge beyond that which our traditional culture offers, may be in direct proportion to our tendency to 'slip' and surrender unwarranted trust.

There has been a lot written about our modern New Age movement. Some say it is 100% rooted in anti-semitic, turn-of-the-19th century Theosophy. And indeed, very sadly, parts of it are.

The paradox in New Age material is that there is also great value thrown under the same heading with Theosophy's turn-of-the-century eugenics (and other assorted 'spiritual backbone'-crushing beliefs).

On the negative we see power hungry, greed-driven (or both) absolutes from manipulative doom and gloom "masters of disaster".

On the far more positive, there are New Age leaders such as Anthony Robbins. We have found that many, though not all, of Anthony's health, fitness and success-coaching material works surprisingly well in the nuts-and-bolts, real urban world. Over the last decade some have quite measurably improved our lives.

So what is a new age consumer to do?

Personally we stopped arguing with angry "debunking experts", social backbone-crushing "enlightened teachers" and frightened, controlling new age bashers on their own Internet boards and opened our own site.
