STIGMATICS

The occurrence of Stigmata itself cannot be disputed for there are, documented quite clearly, scientific accounts of the phenomenon. Many “stigmatised” individuals have been studied over the centuries and, more recently, documentaries have been made about them. The actual phenomenon is something that especially makes non-believers in Christ uncomfortable, for they then have to reckon with the possibility of something extremely special about Christ Himself. Precisely because particular human beings are compelled to bear His crucifixion wounds, one might just believe that more of global humanity would concern themselves with it. For in order to therefore recognise and understand that there really is very much more to it all than religious hysteria and fanaticism; rather than relegating the phenomenon to something “very interesting” and perhaps only relevant to Christianity, a deeper, more “spiritually-intuitive” probe should long since have been undertaken.

We are, of course, only referring to cases of true Stigmata, not documented cases of hypnotically-induced Stigmata, or Stigmata produced as a consequence of over-zealous religious fervour. Genuine Stigmata occurs where the person involved suddenly develops the crucifixion wounds without any prompting from auto-suggestion or similar stimulation. Although these wounds have been known to be inconsistent at times, e.g. in slightly different places for different people, these diverse manifestations are nonetheless all immediately representative of one common happening: The Crucifixion!

History has recorded the names of the more important cases. Individuals like St. Francis of Assisi (1186-1226), St. Catherine de Ricci (1522-1589) in former times right up to relatively more recent persons like Padre Pio (1887- 1968) and Therese Neumann (1898-1962), as well as Giorgio Bongiovanni (1963).

THE “CELEBRATED” STIGMATIC THERESE NEUMANN

For the purpose of this spiritually-crucial discussion and to provide the definitive answer to it that we intimated we would reveal; we will focus on one particular Stigmatic. The most remarkable aspect of this person’s life was two-fold. The first was the unparalleled strength of the wound manifestations in the first instance. Concomitantly in the second precisely because of that, her life on Earth was linked --– in the strangest and subtlest way –-- with the fate of India, and that of the rest of the world! A singular statement of unparalleled “force” in its own right, do you think reader? Well, let’s find out.

The person upon whom our focus is now centred was Therese Neumann of Konnersreuth, Germany! And the key individual, with whom her spiritual path was linked in a truly remarkable way, was the spiritual teacher from India, Sri Paramahansa Yogananda!

(Reader; really strive to absorb the following explanations concerning Therese Neumann, for the events surrounding the meeting between her and Sri Paramahansa Yogananda are unprecedented in terms of what should have developed for a very large portion of global humanity then, and subsequently for humankind’s collective future.)

We will need to condense the story somewhat. In 1935, Sri Yogananda perceived that his spiritual master, Sri Yukteswar, was calling him back home to India. At that time, Sri Yogananda was in California, having established the “Self-realization Fellowship”. Whilst he was enroute to India, he “felt” that he should “make a pilgrimage to Bavaria” to see Therese Neumann. In his autobiography he cited some fairly well-known facts about her.

She was born on Good Friday 1898, and when twenty years old was injured in an accident and became blind and paralysed. In 1923 her sight was restored, ostensibly as a result of prayer to St. Therese of Lisieux, and later her paralysis also disappeared. In 1926 she received the Stigmata on her head, breast, hands and feet. In addition, every Friday she experienced the Passion of Christ and suffered all of His own agony in her body. After World War II, however, she no longer experienced the Passion every Friday but only on some specific sacred days of the year. Although she only spoke German, she would go into a trance on the days of her passion and utter words that have since been identified as ancient Aramaic, the language of Christ’s time, and would even speak Hebrew or Greek at times.

Sri Yogananda’s meeting with her was a most fascinating event, and quotes from a small segment of his autobiography give a very interesting account. From: “Autobiography of a Yogi”, Paramahansa Yogananda. (Italics mine.)

Here, then, is a clear admission of one of the purposes of Stigmata! The phenomenon unequivocally testifies to the historical authenticity of Christ’s existence and His death! Not only, as Sri Yogananda surmised, just to “reassure all Christians”, but more decisively to testify before the entire world that Christ did live and that He did die at His Crucifixion!

To believers and non-believers, to Christians, Muslims, Sikhs, Hindus, Jews, agnostics and atheists, this fact will therefore stand for all eternity!

No archaeological evidence found today can corroborate to a greater extent the truth of the fact that Christ did indeed live and was crucified! And this fact alone should serve to counter certain assertions that Christ went to India (after His Resurrection) and subsequently died there, supposedly somewhere in Kashmir. Or He went to the south of France with His “family”. For if He had survived the Crucifixion -- and it is clear from the nature of His death as recorded in the Bible and the unspoken testimony of the Turin Shroud that He could not have —--

The simple logic of it all calls into question the Islamic belief that it was not Christ who died on the cross, but someone resembling Him. To reiterate once more: If that were the case, as Islam teaches, then the occurrence of Stigmata would be completely pointless and would serve no useful purpose whatsoever. It then becomes a random-chance occurrence which, however, cannot exist according to The Laws of Creation. As we have consistently hammered thus far, those very Laws ultimately issuing from GOD HIMSELF; they are therefore Perfect; and because they are, they cannot be imperfect in any way to thereby somehow permit arbitrary deviation from that inherent Divine Perfection. Let’s say it again:

In bearing the wounds of Christ and having to suffer in the same way as He, but for years on end, Therese Neumann openly testifies to the fact that Christ did exist, that He was crucified and that He died in the process.

Sri Yogananda goes on to describe in his autobiography a test he carried out during his pilgrimage to Konnersreuth. He put himself into a trance and established “telepathic and “televisional” rapport” with Therese Neumann. At this time she had already begun to bleed, and the cloth around her head was drenched in blood, for she also bore the head wounds symbolising the crown of thorns placed on Christ’s head. Her garment was also red with blood, due to the wound on her side, corresponding to the thrust of the Roman soldier’s spear into Christ’s side. Sri Yogananda’s description:

It is important to note that Sri Yogananda had developed a powerful psychic ability, which is clearly evident from his autobiography. He had gifts of clairvoyance, and the ability to see previous incarnations. Consequently, we should not be surprised, therefore, that he could “see” at least some of the events around the Crucifixion of Jesus whilst in an empathetic state with Therese Neumann. However, in terms of the visions Yogananda “saw”, which he states to be connected to her suffering in a form of ”blessed grace”, Yogananda’s “vision” is not just incomplete, but also skewed in a direction that does not give the true and final answer to this “mystery”.

In truth, Yogananda’s true purpose was to bear witness to the actual happening and not be swayed or influenced by his own beliefs which unfortunately caused him to interpret the “vision” differently from what had actually occurred. Had he witnessed the “proceedings” from the Akashic Chronicle, his testimony would have been far more profound, for in this case, that was his primary “Spiritual Mission” for global humanity.

Right: We know from the story of Therese Neumann’s life that she had many visions of the last hours of Christ’s life. Now, reader; history records a number of persons claiming to have had similar visions. So that in itself is not so unusual. However, as we have very pointedly made known to you, what stands out in Therese Neumann’s case is that as the world’s most celebrated “stigmatic”; as well as suffering the complete range of wounds of Jesus during the Easter period, she also experienced His suffering every Friday for 19 years. Now why, of those who are recorded as also showing Christ’s wounds on their bodies, would one single individual be forced to experience exactly that kind of prolonged suffering?

What Sri Yogananda “missed” was the crucial point of her testimony, and it is this: The recognition of the actual key to understanding the reasons for Therese Neumann’s suffering and, indeed, for Stigmata in the first place, can actually be read in her statement: “As a helpless onlooker, I observe the whole Passion of Christ.” The crucial words therein are “helpless onlooker”!

For you, reader: Why would we push this particular aspect of her testimonial --- just two words? For under the official mandate of the Roman soldiers tasked to carry out the execution, the many onlookers there would also have been completely helpless. No! In this case her “helplessness” was because of a grave physical constraint. Have you perceived what it was?

Now we get to the nub of the answer. The “Golden Key” to this so-called “mystery” has its solution --- as with all things ultimately --- in the inviolable and immutable knowledge of The Divine Laws of Creation! Without that essential knowledge, there is simply no possible way open to solving the “Riddle of Stigmata” in Therese Neumann’s celebrated case. To bring this to its lawful conclusion, then; the essential knowledge we need from out of Creation-Law is the vital Law of Rebirth to begin with, and the great Law of Reciprocal Action!

The outworking of these two great Creation Laws, working silently down the long centuries brought their perfect resolution to a particular human being at a precise time in that human journey. The preciseness of the moment in time, ordained by Divine Law for that human soul, meant at the time when The Spirit of Truth --- The Son of Man --- was also on earth. The human spirit, Therese Neumann, suffering in agony for years on end over the wounds cruelly inflicted upon The Son of God 2,000 odd years ago, was finally given the opportunity to be free of the agonies she suffered, and thereby free of the reason for them ---- if she would so recognise it!

Let’s now use the wonderful word --- if --- for our next little analysis. If, according to The Law of Rebirth, she actually was physically present two thousand years ago witnessing the events centred on the Crucifixion of Christ, we would presume that such strong personal experiences might have been burned into her very soul so that, in successive incarnations, the experience would be sufficiently powerful to manifest as visions and trances. By Divine Law, this is a perfectly logical explanation, and one that would explain part of why Therese Neumann had these experiences.

But what about the Stigmata, the wounds she bore, and the immense amount of suffering that she had to experience in her lifetime; every week for many years? For of the many there also deeply affected by the murder of The Son of God, we must surely assume that the person who Therese Neumann would have been in that lifetime and on that dreadful day, was someone who committed a grave offence against Divine Law --- and was thus forced to bear the wounds of Jesus, Who was the Living Law!

The Law of Reciprocal Action provides the answer, for it is the Law of Perfection and Justice, whilst at the same time being a Law of Love and Forgiveness! Residing in that Law, therefore, is Justice and Love, Severity and Forgiveness. Thus, there can never be a question of imbalance or imperfection here! Therefore, all explanations of such phenomena must accord with Divine Law! And therewith, precisely because of the Very Perfection of God, unassailable and inviolable in every nuance of His Perfect Laws.

The answer to the ‘riddle’ of Stigmata is therefore not what the Catholic Church has propounded for centuries! That church has wrongly exalted the person of Therese Neumann and other Stigmatics and beatified them, thus attempting to place them at the level of those who truly fulfilled The Will of God in former times!

Through the unique Knowledge of the “All-Truth” now on Earth --- from which we source the very explanations herein and to which we point --- we can now understand a process that has thus far been veiled from humanity. As stated earlier on, the answer to this “mystery”, even though profound, is nonetheless simple to grasp. We therefore ask the obvious: ‘Why was it not recognised and understood long before now --– by Christian Church leaders, particularly?’ Here is the reason WHY:

That reality would have produced the immediate karmic effect of stigmatisation on those persons, first in the ethereal world --- because fine matter is far more “responsive” to “spiritual thought and deed” than earthly gross matter; and only later, under the immutable outworking of The Spiritual Law of Rebirth, in subsequent incarnations as physical manifestations.

Thus, the souls of those individuals were immediately struck in the reciprocal action, which thereby brought about the same wounds upon them in fine matter, exactly corresponding to those that Christ, as a result of His torture, was forced to bear.

In all successive incarnations on earth, those wounds also manifested physically, either partially or wholly, whilst at the same time the stigmatised persons had visions of the last hours of Christ’s suffering, for which they themselves were directly responsible!

In this very unique and clear process and outcome may we understand the warning to human beings to obey The Law or: “Their works shall follow them!”

Every wound that Christ was forced to bear as a result of being tortured thus became ethereally imprinted on the torturers and on those who mocked. Those wounds could only manifest materially according to precise earthly circumstances, however, and therefore it is quite likely that not all Stigmata manifested in the same manner for all Stigmatics. But that is only due to the “coarse nature of gross matter” and its reduced level of “mobility”. It is also interesting to note that in the various cases of stigmatisation, as in that of Therese Neumann, the wounds could not be healed or treated in any way, and were at times even worsened through treatment.

In addition, in Therese’s case, the great Law of Rebirth wrought for her an earth-life in a female body through which the stigmata manifested in her last, vital incarnation of possible redemption. (Alternating incarnations in male or female bodies, whilst not “Willed by Creation-Law”, can nonetheless easily occur if an individual in a given earth life deviates from its natural gender-characteristics in any particular incarnation.) The reason for the incarnation in a female body could only be known by consulting the Akashic Chronicle, onto which the complete “record” of the entity known as Therese Neumann is now indelibly imprinted; most notably the incredible degree of what was unnecessary suffering from the effects of severe stigmata.

Hence to be “stigmatised” is no blessing as the Church contends, but is instead a grave curse! There does lie in the suffering, however, a blessing for the person concerned if and only if he comes to recognition of his former wrong-doing. When that recognition is made, the karmic bonds are loosened. If the person then lives correctly, according to The Laws of Creation, then the karma can be expiated, and the person freed from it. Thus, that dark two-thousand- year-old deed, though severe enough to be life-threatening to the very spirit, can nonetheless certainly be forgiven the transgressors. However, if the correct recognition is not made, there can be no expiation of the deed. Instead, karmic reciprocity for the long-committed deed will ensure continual suffering for the Stigmatic both on earth and in the ‘beyond’.

Now because those souls who mocked Jesus have thus had to bear the wounds produced by Stigmata, that outcome should tell us something especially crucial for the whole human race, and not just Christians. We should again question why, as a result of the Crucifixion of Jesus only, has such a strange phenomenon taken place? Why is something similar not observed through the martyrdom of many other prophets and Truth-bringers? Is there something special here that distinguishes Jesus from any of those spiritually-elevated Servants of God?

Why else would a crime as loathsome as HIS Crucifixion result in such phenomena even two thousand years later, for many Truth-bringers have been killed in the past? Since their Message was always in stark contrast to the teachings of the priests of the churches or temples of their time, they were oppressed and persecuted too. Yet there is no record of people being born hundreds or thousands of years later and mysteriously developing wounds corresponding to the nature of the martyrdom or torture of the prophets and the disciples!

For example, there are no records of any person showing “upside-down” blood flow patterns as would have occurred with the martyred Peter, or neck scars corresponding to the beheading of John the Baptist --- in Jesus’s words, the “none more blessed” --- or saw-mark scars on anyone’s stomach that featured on Isaiah’s body when he was sentenced to death by being sawn in half with a wooden saw. Despite the very special lives of just those three great men, neither the horrific “marks” of their particular death-mode, nor any associated “blood- flows” therefrom, have ever been recorded on anyone since.

A crime committed against a Son of God is a very different matter, however. It means that it can and should be expected that the persons responsible would be branded accordingly in their subsequent incarnations, and that mysterious signs and phenomena would accompany such a happening. And that is precisely the case in the stigmatisation at Konnersreuth, and in all similar cases!

The reader must, of course, judge for himself and make up his own mind on the subject. He should not superficially examine facts and simply acknowledge “possibilities” here. The nonchalant response of most seekers to what is clearly and unarguably an earthly visible proof about Jesus is testimony to superficiality and spiritual indolence. As Jesus Himself taught, even if an angel were to appear before mankind, they would not believe!

The timing of the appearance of “stigmatised” people is also rather compelling. Apparently, there are no known records of stigmatised individuals appearing until the 13^th century or thereabouts. This seems to indicate two things; either there were no stigmatised persons before that time, or there were and for some inscrutable reason these kinds of occurrences were never documented or mentioned. The second alternative is rather difficult to accept, given that so much had already been meticulously documented even in those days, and that the occurrence of Stigmata would have certainly raised much uproar in the church. Thus, we are left with the first possibility as being far more likely.

In terms of karmic events, the appearance of Stigmata a relatively long time after Christ’s death makes perfect sense. On passing over into the Ethereal World, the souls who had mocked Christ would have initially been bound to a very low Ethereal Plane where they would have experienced the Stigmata for the first time. Reincarnations or rebirths do not take place instantly, and in the normal cycle of karmic events there is often a period of hundreds, or even thousands, of years between successive incarnations. Only when these souls have reached some degree of maturity and realise the need to close a cycle on earth would they be granted, by Law, a further incarnation here.

Thus, within the first few hundred years or so of Christ’s death, it is highly unlikely that there were any stigmatised persons on the planet! Two thousand years later, however, there have been a greater number of Stigmatics as the souls personally responsible for His murder awaken to their guilt in the beyond and strive towards a new incarnation, and perhaps expiation at the very time of The Son of Man and/or His All-Truth now on earth.

The source of this knowledge gives far deeper explanations about this process and also gives the identity of the tortured soul, Therese Neumann, at the time of Christ.

That the Catholic Church has beatified stigmatised persons in the past without applying the immutable and inviolable Law of Sowing and Reaping that Jesus taught, shows how human beings would much rather elevate themselves -- even in the midst of acute suffering -- instead of looking within for the source of that suffering.

The Catholic Church could have very easily determined the facts of the Konnersreuth case had the Pope and his closest “camp-followers” earnestly sought the true answer. God does not will suffering upon the creatures of His Creation. That is a positively silly notion lacking even the smallest measure of logic and intelligence. Such views literally scream of crass intellectualism in religiosity, and thus aspiritual insight. It does not take all that much sense to “see” that human suffering is mostly wrought by us and is thus a clear pointer to personal and collective transgressions against Immutable Laws of Creation!

It is therefore quite astonishing that even the highly gifted Sri Yogananda could not see beyond the vision of the Passion of Christ and clarify from it the true reason for the stigmatisation of Therese Neumann! It is our sure conviction that he was meant to have shown her what she herself had done to receive the Stigmata. Had he done so, the testimony he would have given through his clairvoyant abilities would have confirmed for her what The Living Truth had already made known to her many years before that time! Imanuel, Himself, in a Question put to Him about this case, confirms our assertions. (We reproduce that Question and others related to the stigmatisation of Therese Neumann a little further on.)

Had Sri Yogananda more “spiritually-objectively” understood his real purpose in Konnersreuth, he would not have returned empty-handed to India, for he would have absorbed deeper explanations about The Law of Reciprocal Action (Sowing and Reaping), the primary driver that wrought Therese Neumann’s reciprocal suffering.

Deeper enlightenment for him would have ensured that, upon his return to India, his encounters with many prominent personalities -- especially Mahatma Gandhi only a few months after his visit to Konnersreuth -- would have given to India a much greater Spiritual Knowledge of Creation! More crucially for a very large number of human beings of that time, Gandhi would have surely embraced the new knowledge that Sri Yogananda was tasked to return to India with, and thereby the distinct possibility of recognising the essence of the Truth that he, also, was searching for then.

The world is a far poorer place because of the failure of Sri Yogananda, for Gandhi would surely have left an ongoing legacy which might perhaps have eventually led many of the millions of his followers to a better understanding of the interconnectedness of Creation-Law. He could thereby have perhaps subsequently ‘swayed’ many world events, especially those pertaining to the true recognition of Christ in India, and indeed, throughout the, then, British Empire. ------------

Unfortunately, in his case, from preconceived notions and ideas he himself admitted in his autobiography, Sri Yogananda went to Konnersreuth in the hope of meeting a “Catholic saint”. He had thus already wrongly enthroned her as such. Preconceptions can be a significant hindrance to pure clairvoyance, in itself a great aid for humanity. The crucial emphasis here, however, being pure clairvoyance.

Clairvoyance, in the sense of being able to see and hear ethereal things, is simply a gift. But it is left to the bearer of the gift as to how he uses it. If a clairvoyant or telepathic person bears impurity within, then he can only connect to low Ethereal Planes. On the other hand, if he is spiritually pure and enlightened, he can connect to Higher Realms. Thus, messages and visions of clairvoyants cannot always be readily trusted. To seek help or information via clairvoyance means that the supplicant must be absolutely sure where the clairvoyant’s message is actually coming from!

In Sri Yogananda’s case, by believing Therese Neumann to be a “blessed Catholic Saint”, his terribly wrong assumption about her formed an ethereal “blockage” to his receiving any more information than just that. His mind was already made up on the subject, and this opinion ethereally took on a form, a barrier, that prevented him from seeing the complete happening. Had he gone to Konnersreuth seeking the incontestable Truth about Therese Neumann, a totally different outcome would have resulted from his visit to her. For as he probably very wrongly assumes:

A deep and objective analysis of this entire process should have been carried out in accordance with The Laws of Creation. Much would then become clear for all. And instead of glorifying certain individuals, the Catholic Church hierarchy, particularly, should recognise the actual truth surrounding Stigmatics and put right this terrible distortion.

THE “IDENTITY” OF THERESE NEUMANN REVEALED

Well: Reader; to really put this question and/or riddle or mystery to bed forever, we gift to you the final, definitive answer to it from the hand of Abd-ru-shin, global humanity’s Eternal Mediator! Whilst on earth, many questions were asked of Him by some of “the few” Who recognised Him and His All-Truth. These He collated and published in a separate book titled Questions and Answers.

His key time on earth being the 1920’s/30’s coincided with the years of suffering of Therese Neumann. Attendees at His Lectures and readers of His “Message”, over that time period wrote to Him seeking answers to many different questions. Of the 89 questions that were published, some were about the Konnersreuth case, which we herewith present.

The answer to this question is very fulsome, for it provides background knowledge about its manifestation. On its own His text would probably have been sufficient for the complete Section of this Discourse. Most importantly, reader, we learn the process, reason and outcome for the severe stigmatisation of Therese Neumann.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Abd-ru-shin!
THE “SPIRIT OF TRUTH”!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

There you have it, reader; the background to, and the resolution of, the Konnersreuth case of severe stigmatisation. Unfortunately for Therese Neumann, the elevation of her as a Saint or at least a “blessed one” by the Catholic Church, and the concomitant decision to remove her from public view and interaction meant that no one could then help her to understand why she was so sorely afflicted.

The world’s largest Christian Church, it would seem, still subscribes to a Dark Ages regime of just religiosity under the umbrella of the supposedly Divinely-ordained and thus sacrosanct doctrine of the “Infallibility of the Pope”! Poor Therese Neumann: Probably condemned to suffer to her dying day in this incarnation through the spiritual blindness of ‘her church’. Slaves one and all!

In the same vein as Question 20, the next one addressed to Abd-ru-shin also concerns an aspect of the Crucifixion.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

A far cry from the Muslim Jihadist belief that you can earn entry to Paradise by slaughtering and beheading people who claim to actually believe in and worship The Creator of All the Worlds! And that such a “Muslim path” is somehow “pleasing” to the very same Creator? Where are the words that could ever give understanding to such a distorted doctrine?

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Despite the fact that the “stigmatisation” of Therese Neumann was a 20^th century phenomenon and “that time has now passed”, the meaning and reason of how and why it occurred will have relevance far beyond that century. For as The “Spirit of Truth” admonishes at the close of His main address on this subject:

Abd-ru-shin!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

With those questions fully explained and clarified by Abd-ru-shin, one more necessary Discourse of “Spiritual Illumination” nears its close. For the “big three” of monotheism --- Islam, Christianity and Judaism --- and how they might relate to the “Stigmatisation of Therese Neumann”, their differing religious doctrines about her suffering exactly mirroring the torture and execution of Jesus; in the final analysis, are rendered irrelevant. Put brutally-bluntly, it really doesn’t matter what they teach, preach and claim.

With the arrival of Imanuel/Abd-ru-shin and The Living Truth on earth, the many distortions within their religious doctrines are thankfully consigned to the scrap heap of history. And so is it with the story of Therese Neumann.

THE TIMELINE OF HER “SUFFERING”

The timeline of the development of the different aspects of “suffering” that Stigmatic Therese Neumann became afflicted with coincide with key events in the life of Imanuel in the first part of the 20^th century that are known only to “the few”. Precisely because of that fact, there is little point in describing them, for they would be widely regarded as “impossible”. Nonetheless, as you read the key points about her “Journey to Suffering”, hark back to the explanations about her and her condition given by the Imanuel/Abd-ru-shin!

For prior to the onset of Stigmata proper, Therese suffered a number of injuries; the nature of which one can only wonder at as being one more aspect of her total overall condition which can be associated with certain aspects of what happens to a crucified body. Reader, we are sure you will make the amazing and irrefutable connections clearly revealed.

Note that the ‘online’ essay is written from the standpoint of a Catholic view that she was especially blessed. So, whilst we will quote much of the text verbatim, parts of it will be shortened for brevity’s sake.

Perhaps the one telling aspect of her whole life was the fact that she was born on Good Friday (Black Friday in our books), 8 April 1898. What are the mathematical odds that she, in particular, should be born on the commemorative day forever associated with the Crucifixion of Jesus? She died on the 18^th September, 1962.

Reader: Carefully note how the ‘saint’ words her questions to Therese Neumann.

The exchange between the saint and Therese must be taken at face value, and that we have done. However, it is interesting to note that the italicised and underlined parts are very cautionary, meaning that her suffering would continue despite the ‘saint’s’ helpful ‘intervention’.

It is reported that Therese felt herself being “lifted from her bed”, and after being paralyzed for six and a half years, she was healed of her paralysis and the gaping bedsores. In a matter of seconds, the sores were completely healed and covered with a fresh layer of skin.

Reader: By now, you might think that with the intervention of a blessed Catholic Saint, all will be well for Therese Neumann. Unfortunately, her trial hasn’t even begun.

THE CATHOLIC CHURCH’S DENIAL OF HER “TRUE IDENTITY”

Reader: Let’s pause here in the “official” Catholic narrative about Therese and ultimately their denial of who she really was at the time of The Crucifixion and briefly look at two truly amazing points in her life of “stigmatisation” that, on balance, really defy mathematical odds.

(1) Her suffering first began on a Good Friday (for us BLACK FRIDAY), and:

(2) After a few years of increasing suffering; when the full force of stigmata finally descended on her on the “commensurate day”, what is described as “the ever-increasing, excruciating pain” climaxed in “the final death struggle” ----- at 3 pm!

It is broadly acknowledged historically that Jesus’s ordeal began somewhere around 9 a.m. and that He died mid-afternoon. What do the Scriptures say? We will quote from the Book of Mark, Sub-Section: “His Last Words”.

For Therese: “Good Friday” as its beginning, increasing in pain, suffering and intensity over time ----- and then a near-death experience that exactly mirrored the actual death of Jesus at 3 pm. The story of Therese Neumann’s association with the Son of God’s Crucifixion is akin to “the stuff of legends” but, tragically for Therese, literally painfully true.

Now, after two millennia of silent, long-reaching and inviolable Divine Justice, the crime of the murder of Jesus, The Son of God, was forcibly thrust into the day-consciousness of a part of humanity to which it really should have mattered, and who thus could and should have made the appropriate key “Spiritual-Law” recognitions as to why the “Shroud” enigma and Stigmata so severe that it defied all medical knowledge should come together in the same time-frame of the twentieth century.

Not coincidence, but hard, blunt karmic reality for a large number of humans who also suffered terribly in that century. But we must not state such things, must we? We must never state hard Truth. Instead, we must tiptoe around it in case we offend delicate cultural, racial or religious sensibilities. How stupid and vapid the human race has become.

Well, Imanuel has not pulled any punches towards a spiritually-destitute humanity but, of course, He has come to do exactly that. We re-proclaim His Message to wake up ---- at least for the “the few” who might!

Reader: Do you recognise the words of Jesus from John 16. “He will bring the Judgement and reprove the world of sin”? In the case of Therese Neumann, to be in the same geographical region of the world as The Son of Man, might surely mean that in that particular incarnation, the wounds that mirrored those on The Son of God; might just be a little more severe. More painful; precisely because of the geographical proximity of The Son of Man: Imanuel!

The chronicle of Therese’s life and suffering from our “online’ source, whilst clearly and factually cataloguing the key dates and degree of suffering she underwent, is nonetheless very strongly flavoured with the “doctrine of Catholicism”. Thus, the authors of the article have confused dates pertaining to the “miracle” of her permanent state of “fasting” from food and drink beginning proper in September 1926.

Yet the same authors report that: ‘In 1927 on the anniversary of her death, (September 30), St Therese of Lisieux appeared to Therese in a vision and told her that henceforth she would live entirely off the Eucharist and would have no need for earthly food.’ According to sworn medical and church testimony, right up to her death, she took no food or drink --- just the Eucharist. Is this one more “Catholic-sponsored” miracle for one of its blessed?

The tragedy for Therese Neumann is that had she really recognised and understood the reasons for her “stigmatisation”, she could have returned to normal life a “spiritually and stigmatic-free” and redeemed person. With the collusion of the Catholic Church, however the constant need to maintain the completely wrong though nonetheless fervently-believed illusion of a “holy and blessed stigmatized saint”, necessitated undertaking whatever measures were required to project that “saintly” image. Here’s a paradox. Whatever the truth of Therese’s inedia, the clear pictorial reality is forever imprinted onto the Akashic Chronicle, where no church intervention can have any effect or influence whatsoever.

Well reader, that last notion of “her eternal reward” is a far cry from what we have learned from The Spirit of Truth, don’t you think? Catholic religious emotionalism ruled the life of “Therese”. The flood of “online”, primarily Catholic, contributors who endlessly pontificate on the “holy blessings of stigmata” will reel in horror when, at their deaths, they will be forcibly-confronted by their “so-wrong” belief against the very Truth Itself.

With that Sub-Heading, this Section on Stigmata effectively comes to a close. In concert with the Discourse on the life and death of Jesus, we have hammered this theme very considerably too. Why bother, you may ask. Well, it’s really quite simple. Despite the fact that the well-recorded suffering of Therese Neumann was a 20^th century event, and is now “done and dusted”, so to speak; what it actually and tragically represented then was perhaps the greatest opportunity for the hide-bound and spiritually-blind Catholic Church --- and the Pope of the time of course --- to really let go the centuries-old religious doctrines that could not provide any answers anyway. In its stead, that greatest of opportunities to open the very heart of the church and set a large part of the world free was forever lost.

For “we few” know that the Vatican was perfectly aware of the presence of The Son of Man on earth then, and at least one copy of His All-Truth was obtained by them. Given the great upheavals in global societies at the time, we are sure that It would have been studied assiduously by Papal “officials”.

So: Without a doubt, the supreme chance to learn about and disseminate to one third of global humanity the knowledge of The All-Truth and the Recognition of Imanuel, The Son of Man: The Spirit of Truth then on earth was not embraced by that “Church”! Surely, that was its “spiritual mandate”. Such a deed would have fulfilled, absolutely, Divine Will on earth!

Instead, the Vatican’s motives at that time on this globally-crucial issue is akin to a replay of the trial of Jesus and the statement of Caiaphas, the High Priest of the Jewish Sanhedrin. Presiding over the trial of Jesus, the following exchange set the parameters whereby Light and Truth would be seduced by darkness and ignorance --- but mostly the fear of loss of power and authority. At key points in history, critical actions have often been clothed in fine-sounding words, such as in the following exchange. Unfortunately, however, it was all framed by blatant and cunning hypocrisy. From Fenton’s Bible, John 11:47-50, Sub-section:

Let’s fast forward to the 20^th century and consider the Vatican probability. Did the Pope and his Cardinals of the time also “convene a meeting” to discuss The All-Truth of The Grail Message?

It is unthinkable that The Living Word of Imanuel --- which they had in their possession, and no doubt still do --- would not have been seriously examined by officials of the largest Christian Church on earth, and perhaps even “agonised” over. If not, It certainly should have been! The eventual outcome of Papal discussions would probably have run something like this:

“It is better to conceal this Book and hold the power of our church intact than to reveal IT and set the masses “spiritually free”!

Why have we commented so frankly on the Vatican’s probable reaction? This issue has parallels with author David Yallop’s investigation into the death of the “33 Day Pope”! When asked what the Vatican thought about Yallop’s book, a senior Vatican “official” stated to the effect:

Reader: That is why we have revisited those very especial 20^th century events with necessary “Mandated-indictment”! The tragedy: One more chance to open up the world to TRUTH was, to put it diplomatically, “not taken”!

On the matter of the Beatification of Therese Neumann as some kind of holy saint and a human spirit blessed for all eternity by Jesus, the Son of God, we cannot leave the Catholic Church position unanswered. We have stated often thus far that it is our ordained Mandate to Proclaim Imanuel and His All-Truth.

To that end in the context of this Discourse; from out of the inviolable and immutable Divine Laws of Creation that The Son of Man brought down to earth at the exact same time as Therese Neumann’s time on earth, His Words, and His Alone, have “fully explained” the case of Stigmata that impacted on her so devastatingly.

(Reader: make careful note of the changing designations of: --- Imanuel, Spirit of Truth, Son of Man, Abd-ru shin (Arabic for Son of The Light), and Eternal Mediator --- as we progress our way to the final Discourse of the Work! Remember what we told you about The Triune of The Executive Justice of God!

The important thing to understand is that the Titles you see there all represent The Executive Justice of God, but in “One” singular “Working”, yet with more than one “designation”! So, because Imanuel has used the Name Abd-ru-shin for His Grail Message; excerpts from His All Truth may carry that designation also. For in clear, Divine, reality: He/They is/are the very same in --- and as --- Executive Justice!)

In direct connection to the associated time-frame of Therese Neumann’s time on earth in the context of this Work and its Title, an especially interesting aspect of her life occurred during the Second World War. We may perhaps more specifically detail the crucial connotations to both the previous and following paragraphs in what we, at the moment, are “loosely alluding to”, towards the end of the book; vis-à-vis:

Now whilst the Catholic Church may see in Therese a saintly figure blessed for all time, Imanuel decrees the Truth about her “stigmata”. The short excerpt from His Grail Message that follows clearly exposes the non-understanding of centuries of religious distortion of Jesus’s teachings promulgated by Catholicism.

All the evidence lies there before us, and the Knowledge of The Eternal Laws provides the answers! In acknowledging and accepting with conviction the clear and irrefutable evidence here, we arrive at one absolute conclusion:

“STIGMATA” TESTIFIES TO THE TRUTH OF THE DIVINITY OF JESUS!

2,000 odd years later, it is almost a re-run of the position that the Jewish Religious Authority --- the Sanhedrin under Caiaphas --- took against The Son of God on earth. In the 20^th century, for virtually the same reasons, a similar situation by “the church” against the presence of The Son of Man on earth, with the result that Divine Truth was once more choked off. How many chances do we foolish, ignorant “religious” human beings think we will continue to get from the humanly-incomprehensible LOVE of The Light of GOD!

Well, reader: In truth, no more. The Son of God clearly stated that The Son of Man would “bring the Judgement and reprove the world of sin”. So here we all are, watching the inexorable deterioration and collapse of societal systems world-wide. Do we laugh or cry at the clearly-impending and rapidly-approaching “conclusion”? Once again, I say laugh; but laugh with joy that the Power of Divine Law will send all “aspiritual religious garbage” to its appropriate and exactly-commensurate “place”.

What we reveal for you now, reader; some within the Papal hierarchy will also have read ---- but ignored and/or dismissed. Whilst this particular excerpt primarily pertains to the deep-seated, global, spiritually-incorrect practice of Mariolatry of Catholicism, the clear message in its serious admonition to the Catholic Church from The Son of Man is unmistakeable!
