Subject: Further update and insight This is a Sunday message sent out to subscribers of http://finalbookofdaniel It contains some further understanding of the author's situation, as well as a couple letters from readers and responses, and some insight into why disdain for mortal pursuts are futile and even contradictory to the ways of the Spirit. And some insights into the mystical Jewish kabbalah. Some of this will be included in the book. Also remember Sunday prayer, every Sunday! But this Sunday (Today), NOT until after 6 pm! ******** ******** For most of Daniel's adult life after the NDE of 1991, he exhibited a disdain for all mortal interests involving money, power, fame, and took interest in only in the higher levels of interest, involving wisdom, knowledge, higher intelligence; the lower interests of existence were, to me, of very little value, and considered futile, temporary and vanity. Surely this intelligence of mind could easily have been used to attain the highest ranks of society, whether it be political office, riches, or fame in the sight of others. The natural inclination of the typical reader would be, "Daniel, you're an angel! Surely you can do anything...why would you choose to live in poverty and dead-end jobs? Don't you know you can use your supernatural abilities and IQ to master the societal realm?" The reply is very simple, and is why most saints and prophets subject themselves to a life of utter simplicity, and was why Jesus was a "lowly" blue collar worker until becoming "unemployed" with the issuance of His ministry. "You cannot serve God and wealth (mammon)." You see, in attaining the way of angelification, it was necessary to focus as much attention and energy to the conquering of self, and attunment to true, deific will; this effectively requires the absence of mortal interests. This is the implications of Jesus' statement that it is "harder for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven that it is for a camel to enter the eye of a needle." Now, Daniel of old moved through the ranks of the royal palace of Babylon for much of his life. But Daniel has now advanced to a state of even higher levels of achievement, which surpasses the powers of all the kingdoms, kings and presidents of the world during his current angelification. Understand then, that as long as there is minimal food in the stomach, and something to wear, the rest of human, materialistic "pleasures" are a poison and impediment to growth and spiritual attainment of the degree Daniel has reached. It is necessary to break off all ties to society and finances to enable an awakened angel to contentrate duties toward the divine. After the angelification in 1999, Daniel, with great urgency under God, began directing even more time and energies, according to divine will, away from employment concerns, and wrote most of the Final Book of Daniel during all of 2000, and reading scriptures and other sources of information. By February 2001, this redirection of energy became a severe hampering to the already minimal duties of employment, which was in conflict and an impediment to the mission of Daniel, as are all mortal interests of an ascended master, and therefore, as a result, left the blue collar job I possessed at the time, which would enable Daniel to pay full attention to Daniel's angelic ministry, and writing of the book. You see, this is the first book I will ever have written, and it is divinely inspired. And it will reach the hands of many, shortly, in a relative sense. At the time I was pressured from a divine perspective to complete at least the first edition of the book every waking hour for a month, even though I had no source of income whatsoever. The root cause was the disproportionate time and energies spent on the book as it nears completion for the first, minimal, advance-proof copy. I thought about how this book may be published, and divine necessity requires me to have control over its content. I also thought about who would finance or promote it, because it could make Daniel's writings seem biased toward a particular faith, but an angel is objective and neutral. In other words, I lowered superficial desires and wants to the degree of bare necessities, which the Father would always provide. From this point on, every moment of the day would now be directed toward serving God's will, even if it meant extreme poverty in the temporary meantime. Such issues do not bother an angel, for all the prophets of old also made vows of poverty. Whenever money and God mix, there is the potential for corruption, unless the money received is in accordance with perpetuating God's will, as will be the case with Daniel. If the book makes a million dollars -- or a hundred million dollars, it would be a success. But then Daniel must decide where the proceeds will be directed, and they must be of the most efficient and productive use relevant to the mission received, which is to awaken others by spreading the word, in the same way some spread the word through the issuance of the Bible. Our society places great value on success, that is material success and riches, and views anyone who has not attained riches as a "loser." Yet it all revolves around power and status, and use of power. An angelified human, like Daniel, who has conquered and found self, attuned to the frequency of the Creator, has far more power than Bill Gates and Bush combined, and it was a result of a disdain for such mortal means of power, fame and riches: "Those who humble themselves will be exalted...the meek shall inherit the earth..." Well, I've attained the highest state; something that will never rot, be stolen or taken away. It is not those who die with the most who win, for you cannot take anything with you after death, but those who attained elevated angelification through the Way, who win! Only those of the Spirit will understand this. Would you rather be Jesus, Son of God, or Bill Gates, filthy rich? It depends on where your mind is at, what you believe, and what you value. In the life review after death, what will be stressed? How much money you made or how many college degrees you obtained? Or how you treated others, and spiritually grew? It is the latter, and the former means little to nothing. Daniel is equally comfortable, whether it be in a homeless shelter or a mansion, for I have seen what really matters, and have become the eternal flame of life; regardless of situation, poor or rich, dressed in a suit or a robe, Daniel is still a holy angel of God, regardless of stereotypes. At the time the completion of the book, first edition, early 2001, Daniel, for a time had no income whatsoever, due to intense attention on its completion. But there was one issue to contend with, and that was "How do I publish a book or even maintain a website with such expenses, although materially indigent?" The writing of this book was in a sense an investment, like going to college; forfeiting current income for future reward. But this is different, as the ultimate reward was to be divine, unmeasurable by human standards; the payment in the long-run is to awaken others back to their divine source, and hasten the Second Coming. How can that be measured in dollars or cultural status and fame? I refused to be associated with advertising, as it seemed unethical and subject to agendas. I had not raised any revenue from the website in any way from the time of the awakening until early 2001, when I solicited to hundreds of subscribers of the financial predicament in launching the book. Therefore I placed partial responsibility onto readers for aid for a book fund, for initial publication. I wanted you readers, who are partly responsible for this creation, to support it, but this requires readers' contributions. Many tithe for religious or spiritual matters when they believe the cause to be right; this was done in starting this book fund. This is effectively like tithing, where, if one gives to an organization if they feel it will help others. In this case, the book will ultimately help many awaken, but this required investment beforehand. You must also understand that regardless of solicitation, advertising, investment, reward or divine will, there will always be those who will suggest the author to be "Milking gullible people to line his pockets" etc. Such suspicions come from misguided folks who fail to realize the nature of charity, or the beneficial outcome of their labors and contributions. Therefore, regardless of critical attacks from others, Daniel continues in this movement to spread the Word and Truth via a universal Book Fund dedicated to the distribution of this book's message, and the information as to how you can be involved will also be included in the book when published. And of course, the spirit is all non-profit, to spread the word. Remember that financial gain is not the motive of this whole situation, but to spread the message; and if it means Daniel has to live in extreme poverty, so be it. In angelified state, God supplies all, and all needs are met and given, even sitting on a mountain meditating for the rest of the days. Afterwards the message of this book will self-perpetuate, God willing. And God has willed this. *********** *********** I received this message from a reader, "After much thought, I know that my anxieties are coming from believing in apocalyptic prophecies which cause great fear. Daniel, I'm only reading my bible from now on. Today I opened to Galatians 1:8 'But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned! Also the other night I opened to a page that went right to the part about not worshiping angels. Now I looked up "worship" and no I am not anymore. I praise the name of Jesus!!!!!" Donna *** Donna is very misguided, but by whom? Certainly not Daniel. Donna mentions anxieties about apocalyptic prophecies. The Bible is full of them, and the ones most guilty of this charge are fundamentalists who worship the Bible. Daniel does not base his prophecies on the Bible, but visions which happen to coincide with certain Biblical passages. And I've been telling everyone to not worry, and "Do not be afraid." If you wish to ignore such events, even when given by Daniel himself, an actual angel of God at the end, then so be it. No one is forcing you to believe anything. Donna mentions worship of angels. If you've actually read the Final book of Daniel, you will see that I tell you: "...And I am definitely NOT to be worshiped or prayed to." If Donna is going to read the Bible, she had better read Daniel, where it is mentioned several times that Daniel is "endowed with the spirit of the holy gods." Holy gods is another way of saying angel. I have always directed you to worshipping the Most High God, as I do. Where does Donna come up with this fear? Since when has Daniel "preached another gospel? For goodness sakes, I've BECOME the gospel; just because it may differ from YOUR interpretation, does not mean it is "another gospel." You have read words coming from Paul, not God. And he was not an angel who actually has become the Way. The poison you have been taught, or at least influenced by is Bible-thumping fundamentalists who tell you to "beware" of everything under the sun, and stop you from entering the kingdom, for they certainly will not enter it themselves. ********** ********** Ways of desire and wisdom. A pyramid of souls exists, based on the desire to receive. At the base of the pyramid are many souls with small desires, earthly, looking for a comfortable life, animal-like: food, sex, sleep, for example. In a sense these are needs, but once they are attained, as is the case of most humans are capable of receiving at the present, at least at most times under various circumstances. The next layer consists of fewer souls, those with the urge to acquire wealth and material reward; those willing to invest their entire lives in making money, sacrificing themselves for the sake of riches. This at one time or another I desired, but that desire for personal purposes has been conquered. Next are those that will do anything to control others, to govern and reach positions of power such as a politician or executive, for the purpose of power. This one Daniel seems to have skipped, for never has this desire been of importance to a degree of ever rationally seek it. But I did, from 1992 to about 1998 body build and power lift weights, and that may be considered power, but soon gave it up to a serious degree around 1999. In retrospect, admittedly, I did use some of this new-found physical strength to control others until 1996, when I hit a bottom, but particularly from 1992 to 1994; it was a very rough time for me and did many mistakes for which much negative karma was created, but it was largely paid off in the suffering that followed, and the giving back now underway as an angel. The next and even larger desire, by fewer souls, is for knowledge; scientists and academics who spend their lives engaged in discovering specific mysteries. They are interested in nothing but their all-important discovery or breakthrough. This one Daniel spent much time in the 10 years or so prior to the angelic awakening. It was an internal search for reason, truth, meaning, wisdom, and study of all sciences, including physics, astronomy and astrophysics such as Relativity, geophysics and economics, and how they all interrelated. This was a relentless search which left too many questions unanswered, until finding even higher truths. The strongest desire, developed by only a few (for the gate is narrow), the highest realm, is for the attainment of the spiritual world which transcends all of the previous, including religion. Well, Daniel has, through the strongest desire, graduated to the highest attainment by passing through all such graduations, conquered the lower realms, and is sitting at the top, his mission is to help others attain it. For those that have surpassed all the previous desires, and are here, at this level, Daniel is here to help you, as the angel of the awakening. ************* ************* For those going through any hardship, know that Daniel is always there for you in prayer. Here is a letter received from a reader, asking for advice, and Daniel's response. On Mon, 19 Feb 2001 04:24:04 Crashname wrote: "Hello Daniel, I'd like a little input from you about my life, or lack thereof. I am 30 years old now, but will begin with where I believe the trouble began. I grew up with a physically abusive, alcoholic father. I remember one night in particular where the bastard shut off every light in the house. He then told us he didn't want to hear a sound, as it might make him do something. (He had a few guns and we knew to what he was referring) So we sat there in the dark, in fear. I was tormented at school by kids who could sense my pain and weakness, and finally just quit to get away. I worked for a family member for several years, really putting my heart into it. I learned all aspects of the job (CNC machining), did excellent work, and made a lot of money for the company. I never got paid what I should have and was continually dumped on third shift, even though I could no longer get any sleep. I was forced to quit to preserve my sanity. It was this experience which made me decide to start my own business. As you would expect this has been an uphill battle to say the least. Through all this I have had very little time to pursue any sort of relationship. My brother was introduced to a girl a few years ago. Suddenly he had no time for or interest in his brother. That hurt me a lot because we had been through so much growing up. He has since moved away. My best friend, of over 12 years, also met a girl several months ago. We used to hang out every weekend, and now we barely ever get together. Quite literally the only person I have to talk with, out of over six billion people, is my Mom. And it get worse, after a fashion. I have always tried to lead a good, moral life. I never slept around or anything like that. So yes, I am a 30 year old virgin, probably the only one in America that's not a priest, monk, etc. This makes me feel like a freak. I should be bronzed and put up as a monument to stupidity. If you have no friends, it's very hard to make new ones, as you aren't meeting anyone. I'm certainly not deluded enough to thing I'm going to go down to the local grocery store and meet my future wife in the frozen food section either. My current state is one of bitterness. My soul has been poisoned. I no longer fear death and could care less if I wake up in the morning anymore. I'm not a drunk or drug user, so there is no way to numb the pain. And being extremely intelligent lets me see the situation >for what it is and not fool myself. I feel more alone than you could imagine, and I know that nobody gives a damn. I could accept this situation if God told me this is what he wanted for me. There has been no such revelation though, and no answer to my prayers. I see no hope for my future. I don't know why some people get opportunities, and others like me don't. I wrote you before about something else, and your referral to the NDE site was very helpful. NDE's are no comfort now though. It's fine that everything will be OK when I die. What about now? My family is long lived, and I may hit 90 years old. I'm supposed to live alone, unloved, and childless for the next 60 years? As I said before, if God told me this is how he wanted it, no problem. I've often thought there must be one angel out of billions he could send to me for 10 seconds with that message. To say the least I feel abandoned by the world, and maybe even God. I was too embarrassed to use my regular email, and will sign this anonymously. Thanks for reading this. Pray for me Daniel." Anon *** Daniel's response, Sir, With power and love you have received an angelic charm from God. I have contemplated your troubles and have compassion, because I've been through almost the same things around 6 years ago. I too found all my friends getting married and leaving. And I was left alone. This, however, is what started my internal turmoil and journey which led to, ultimately, transforming into an actual angel. And in this state, there is no loneliness. But it takes continual internal struggle. Often it is when you reach bottom that God will call upon you. And I'm hoping you can receive God, for it seems you are close to bottom. Daniel's been there, several times. Read the Biblical story of Job for an example. You look to me for answers, but should already know that they lie within. Pain in the process? Definitely, but remember there is always light at the end of the tunnel. Seek and never stop seeking. Your father reminds me of my step father in the anger portion and other relatives in terms of alcoholism. I was also the skinniest kid in the class throughout high school, insecure and shy. I of course was bullied. I eventually, after the 1991 NDE, body builded and went from 120 pounds to 200 pounds within 6 months. Then ironically, I seemed to become a bully for a couple of years, with reckless fearlessness. Then I accepted that internal truth is found within, as that is where God found me, I found God. I became an actual co-creator with God; an actual embodied angel. This cannot be done while trying to please others, or placing the qualification of your happiness on the companionship of others. Your means of employment means nothing in the celestial realms. I was a very low-paid blue-collar worker for all my adult life. It is very difficult to simultaneously obtain the Way by serving wealth and material ambition while serving God. The fact that you can't seek a normal relationship should be used as an opportunity to seek relationship with your Self, internally, and to learn to be content with your own company. And the company of God which is where He shall be found; within. The road to true spirituality, becoming the Way, is a lonely road at first, but that fades in time. I was somewhat brought to tears by the end of your message, for it sounds suicidal; and it reminded me of when I hit bottom in every conceivable way in 1996. Listen sir, I do not know all the details of your situation, and am not permitted to give personal psychoanalyses and remedies in writing, but through the power of God I've been permitted to give as much divine powers to help you on your path, to heal and ascend, for Daniel is the angel of the awakening. Remember that God helps those who help themselves, and take initiative. Seek, and seek strenuously and internally, and you shall find. I did, and so can you. You, sir, are a prime candidate for angelification. Daniel ************* ************* The kabbalah... Moderation is the last refuge for the unimaginative. Kabbalist Rabbi Baruch Ashlag also known as "The Rabash" (1906-1991 ) said,"... if someone says to you: 'I toiled, and I did not find', don't believe; 'I didn't toil, and I found', don't believe; 'I did toil, and I found', believe." Daniel has attained this ascension in ways which are remarkably congruent with the mystical branches of all religions: Jewish Kabbalah, Christian Gnostics, Buddhism, Islamic Sufism. It so also happens that the teaching of these higher, "mystery religions" coincide with the after-life reality of the Near-Death Experience. This tells briefly what Kabbalism is about: "The Kabbalah teaches a practical method to apprehend the upper world and the source of our existence while still living in this world. By this method man attains perfection, and takes control over his life and transcends the limitations of time and space. In this way he realizes his true purpose in life and achieves - tranquility, endless, unbounded enjoyment while he is still living in this world." In fact, Kabbalists who've read Jesus' story fully understand that He was the fulfillment of the Torah (Law) through such teachings. Daniel of old was in fact very involved with the secret science of the Kabbalah, hence so manyvisions and angelic experiences. But to be open to the teachings of these higher branches of mysticism, one first must have a spiritual yearning that burns within. One must have advanced beyond religious understanding of thecommon man. One must be an initiate to understand it, which is why they have become secret knowledge for only a select few for thousands of years. This is why fundamentalists, for instance, in ignorance of true divine reality, and of the potential inherent within all humans, attempt to dismiss these concepts as "self-help nonsense, new age" cults with accusations of flakiness and heresy: They tend to be at a lower spiritual state and do not understand the concepts of attaining the true Way, and instead place their authority on a certain book, twisting around certain passages, discarding all other sources of truth, and incapable of understand the true spiritual concepts attempted to be conveyed by such scriptures. It is Daniel's goal to shed the light on ignorance. See this site for the keys to riches...spiritual riches: www.kabbalah-web.org ******* P.S.
