In the past, the wisemen/prophets of their time walked among the people to spread their words.
The danger of having a human shield around the prophet is the influence the prophet has on those people and visa-versa.
Even if there is danger to his personal well-being it should not prevent the prophet from spreading his word face to face, since we are the people he is trying to save.
I am someone who doesn't follow or lead, i only observe. The impact the Spiritual Teachings have could be so much bigger if the prophet goes public.
Any comments?

Hello Everyone

In the old days, prophets did not have boardcasting facilities, not even amplifier or loudspeakers. Hence they went personally among people to spread their messages - the only way.

We are more lucky, we have the Internet! Mr. Meier is not required to go anywhere, he is already in public.

As for Norm, how about trying Internet Video conferenceing like Netmeeting, it is free! (if FIGU and Mr. Meier would like to manage)

Warm Regards

Savio

Thank you for your comments, yet i feel that a person to person contact could make such a bigger impact on people.
I'm not suggesting a world tour, but is there a reason for him staying put?
Has he done interviews on (video)tape? What could I/we do to help, outside of Figu?
Regards,

Hello all,

The long-prophesied time for a "world announcement" has already passed (many had eyes but they did not see). Back in the late 70's (and the early 80's), Billy Meier was known throughout the entire world (television, radio, magazines, etc.). His Mission for this kind of behavior is finished now. There are many reasons for this, but it would take too long to explain about it.

Today, Billy is an absolute recluse who works privately with his group on the Mission, i.e., "the bigger picture." This fact proves that he is not out for publicity in any way like the many other (so-called) UFO contactees.

Mr. Meier is living out the remainder of his life as an author and teacher (through his many books). At the current time, the Mission Itself has a sense of success to it, albeit a tiny one (involving millions of people in the future). One must also remember that Billy Meier was only the match that lit the many tapers -- a mediator of sorts, who voluntarily (and selflessly) took on this substantial and prodigious assignment out of pure love, respect and even a sense of pity...


Kind regards,
Andrew

Dear Peter...
In response to your posting of July 22, I would like to say that it is not Billy's duty/task to save us. By taking personal responsibiltity for our thoughts, feelings and actions, we can better understand not only ourselves, those around us, but also, how we can make a difference.
If you want to fully benefit from the Spiritual Teachings then it's up to you to do the work, to study the material that's available, to think about it, to see if it makes sense, to test it, question it and integrate what you can. Billy does not need to go around giving public lectures.
I recommend reading "An Interview with 'Billy' Meier: Part 2 ...The Spiritual Teachings".

Salome, Michael Uyttebroek

Important Announcement:

Guido Moosbrügger's book, "And yet They Fly" is now published in English and available to order. Several years have been spent translating the book into English and finding a publisher with enough courage to print the book as it is written and not try to water it down or censor certain passages because they seem too unbelievable.
Guido himself first met Billy at a lecture Billy was giving in Munich back in 1976. Guido has been accumulating and studying the information ever since. You can imagine the depth and wide range of the material in this book.
To order it, please ask your local bookstore to contact the publisher in the USA. Hopefully, they will oder more than one and might begin to stock their shelves due to public demand and the book's growing popularity.
The relevant infomation to pass on to your bookstore so they can contact the publisher below to order the book is as follows:

Steelmark LLC
8086 South Yale - Suite 173
Tulsa, OK
USA 74136

Phone (918) 827-6453
FAX (918) 827-5561

I just received a call from Mike Whelan with this information about Guido's book . The ISBN # is 0-9711523-0-6 . As Phil suggests , ordering the book through a large bookstore will give the book a broad exposure , and a chance to get the book on the shelves , where they sell themselves to browsing customers .The book goes to press , however , in 30 days , around the end of August .It would be best to order the books around that time , but I'm sure Mike will give everyone notice .Until then , rest assured that the book will be available , especially when it's posted on the FIGU websites .
Thanks , Mark

ANNOUNCEMENT RE GUIDO'S BOOK:
There is slight delay in the book being published. It goes to the printer's Tuesday, July 31st where an initial run of 3,000 copies will be made. As with any mechanical process, there will be glitches and snags, smeared print on some words or pictures etc., and a resultant additional delay of a day or two to correct it.
Mike Whelan says allowing a month for these 3,000 copies to be correctly printed is standard. This means the book will be finished from the printer's at the beginning of September.

Then Mike will give himself another 3 weeks to check for any undiscovered errors before he puts the relevant data into a computer-based catalogue of new books available from which bookstores use to order. Therefore, around the end of September your local bookstore should be able to find "And yet They Fly..." on their computers to order for you at a price of $26.95 U.S. The stores get it at 40% discount.

To see a sneak preview of the book's cover, go to the Publisher's web site at www.steelmarkonline.com

Thanks for your patience. It will be worth your effort when you finally see and read it.

Hello FIGU...(!)

A concept (idea) I hope you will all consider(!)
But first, a bit of background to this concept...(!)

This forum has some REALLY GOOD Information.
Andrew's "art" etc..., or Christians!!
I don't need to tell you this...(!)
You know this already!

I really hope that in my (our!) next incarnations, that the postings on this board are available to me (& us!)!

Although the "information" & it's derivatives (interpretations) will be more "mature" in the next several centuries, the "study" of "how we thought back now", will be quite informative & enlightening, in the context of "social thinking" etc.
Especially when Billy is still alive physically.

This is what I suggest (!!)(concept only, eh?)

All the postings from this board can be archived in HTML format. A CD could be produced (Gold media, good for 100+ years, eh?).
The CD needs to be representative of "how we thought", back "now".

Please consider how interesting it would be to read the "reader's comments" from the time of "Christ"... (yea I know... but you know what I mean, eh?)!

When enough postings are accumulated, produce a "Best of FIGU posting" CD, & make these available to the general public.
If some massive catastophe hits us (or whatever), these CD's would be worth far more than...?

Get the idea? (!!)

Thanx for listening... (& "putting up with me/us, eh?")

Love & Life (for the next 800 years & beyond!)
JP

Hi again...
Addendum: Insert FIGU / Billy's material(s) into the CD as well. (most important!!!)
All the copyrights, legalities, financial considerations, copy-protection(s) etc. will mean absolutely nothing, if "Billy's info" is lost.
The next 800 years, eh? (gold media...!!)
Unless you all know something we don't, eh?

Hello JP

In last years passive meeting, a question was asked "How can we find the FIGU in our next life?"

One member made the statement "to search for the truth". While this could be true, who is to say the FIGU will be here in a 100 years or so. We all hope that the momentum we have built up will carry us onward and upward.

It seems to be generally true, if you have great interests in a certain field, I tend to think you will carry those strengths and hopes forward with you each lifetime. What is uncertain will we or "myself" make certain decisions which will bring us closer to where we need to go, or will we choose less favorable choices which slow our evolution down? Interesting ideas to discuss for all times...

Scott B, In each new life I would imagine that we will have different likes, hobbys & professions, than we did in the last lifetime, so its very possible we will not find this stuff again. It would be nice to get some clarification on this from Billy or FIGU.

Didn't a Moderater on this forum say that he was going to ask Billy to answer some of our questions on this forum? It sure would be fun to have some interaction with Billy on this forum. Billy could answer 5 to 10 simple questions a month on this forum. Or we could even do a live chat with Billy.

Hi Norm (and all),

I was that Moderator. :) I mentioned that I was going to have some of the more pressing Forum questions delivered to Billy (those that cannot be answered in existing texts that we have.) I realize this would help make the Forum readers feel more connected to Billy, so let's try this out:

I will open up a new topic area in The Mission:"Billy" Eduard Albert Meier called Your Questions to Billy Meier--Answered. A FIGU Core member has agreed to take several questions to Billy on his periodic visits to the Center where Billy can provide generally quick "Yes/No" answers, or a few sentences of explanations, if he so chooses. But for now, I'll try to only select those questions that should not require a lengthy response. Billy and FIGU are always quite busy, so I want to start this slow.

What you (the readers) can do is to post a single question in the new topic area that you would like Billy to personally answer. When we've built up enough questions in this area, I'll close the "Add Message" box there so no more can be added. Billy's responses to the questions will be inserted inside the original post so it's easier to keep track of which questions have been answered. Once most of those are answered, I'll re-open the area for more questions.

We should probably start with only a handful (about five) questions at a time. I estimate Billy will get these roughly every two weeks, but this may vary. Also, to help me out, please search the Forum first to see if your question has already been answered. Questions that have already been answered, or are contained in an existing book, will be noted as such in the post or possibly removed.

The idea for the new topic area is to have a list of postings containing questions to Billy and his answers embedded within the posts (I may categorize them at some point). We shouldn't use the Questions area for discussion. If you need to clarify anything regarding the question or the answer given, you can e-mail me at my address below (I will respect privacy regarding your e-mail address and name) or discuss it in one of the Miscellaneous discussion areas of this Forum.

Any other suggestions or ideas on this, please reply here in this thread (topic). Thanks and let's see how this works!
