2.  AVARICE

Avarice is basically another term for GREED, defined as:  "Selfish and grasping desire for possession especially of wealth; avarice; covetousness." Now one who is GREEDY or filled with AVARICE is then possessed with feelings of EXCESSIVE eagerness for acquisition or gain of some form of material object or wealth. They, therefore, are selfishly and excessively cov­etous and desirous of GAINING something, not because they need it, but because they must have it to BE worthy, or be a winner, OR ACHIEVE "superior" status in their "image" of what is worthy, what is a "winner" and what is "superior" sta­tus. It is the selfish covetousness of desiring MORE than one really needs of some material object, and in this time upon your placement, it is usually MORE money. One who is, therefore, possessed by his excessive greed will have many unfulfilled physical desires and will thus wish to fulfill them at whatever "cost" (physically or emotionally) to another or even self the ac­quiring of same, may be.

The seeds of greed are usually planted by at first the over­whelming feelings of "self-failure" for not "measuring up" to the "images" of success and winning which are constantly pro­moted within your various forms of MEDIA. It then becomes a feeling of "deserving" something without having done anything, or putting in the least amount of effort personally to earn or cre­ate same. It is this desire created by your Media' programming that one can receive "something for nothing" through what is called "good luck" which again implies that it is random LUCK and NOT personal power and responsibility which allows you to create that which you need. It also often means ones refuse to take personal responsibility for creating their own perceived "lack" or "loss" of material goods. It is in this time frame of your history which greed is blatantly and expressly created, en­couraged and nurtured primarily by those within your Justice system. Many ones who have become frustrated at perceiving themselves as the "have-nots" of society and who have also be­come the "victims" of their own lack of self-worth, are the easy prey of the attorneys who promote greed and no self-responsi­bility. It is no accident, dear ones, that your "Western" society has become the most litigious, meaning: "Inclined to engage in a lawsuit against another because of real or perceived damages to self." in your entire world. Your system of true justice is nearly gone, and those who nearly always benefit in every case are the attorneys from ALL sides of a lawsuit. It is through this now created system of INjustice that lying, cheating and stealing from others is par for the course and expected behavior for ones who wish to "win" EVEN if it involves the total financial and physical ruin of the one/ones being sued.

How do you KNOW what YOUR true intent is when you con­sider suing another? You will first need to recognize what is your true MOTIVATION in your desire to sue. Have you truly been, whether it be unintentional or intentional, damaged? Have you recognized that YOU too have participated in the creation of this experience? You must confer with self and GOD within to determine WHY you chose the experience and what must be ac­complished or learned by you in making your decision to enter litigation with another. If you KNOW that another has wronged you because of their own greed and selfish disregard for your feelings or property, then you, upon conferring with GOD within, may decide to restore to balance the WRONG committed willfully against you. With the true integrity of your intent firmly established within, then GOD will ASSIST to bring you the JUSTICE which you deserve and have earned. Do you need to lie to assist GOD? Not at all, if you have truly been inten­tionally wronged, THE FACTS WILL STAND- ON THEIR OWN MERIT OF THE EVIL PERPETRATED AGAINST YOU. There are still a handful of attorneys who truly desire to serve their brothers and intelligently utilize the "system" to bring justice when THEY know it is merited. YOU must trust GOD to bring you the assistance which you need to bring the balance of justice which you have earned.

Sadly enough, on the other side of the "coin" there are actually MANY ones who find themselves truly "the innocent victims" of being sued, will discover that, EVEN though they KNOW they have been willfully wronged and falsely accused, it is "cheaper" both financially and emotionally "to settle" with the accuser, than FIGHT for the justice they deserve. They, the lawyers and judges trained and controlled through your ABA (American Bar Association) have created these tidy little short­cuts for you, friends. They call it a "business" decision to al­low the least amount of "loss" to the accused. Well, of course the attorneys on both sides are PAID in full, the one wrongfully suing WINS, and the wronged one pays, one way or another. It is set up this way. It saves time for the attorney, he gets a tidy sum and he "saves" his client money.  RIGHT? WRONG! The accused finds himself "guilty" of something he is not and his only other "choice" is financial and emotional devastation by continuing his case which could go on FOR YEARS AND YEARS AND YEARS!  Integrity?  TRUTH?  We are sorry, dear ones, only WINNING (stealing) material assets at the ex­pense of another, and striving to save self from excessive loss of such assets are the criterion for the LITIGATION game as set up by the ANTI-Christ.

Do you see that it is this idea that ones adopt, that they must be perceived as a WINNER in the "eyes" of your society, and they are encouraged to do so by WHATEVER MEANS at their disposal with total disregard for honesty, integrity and personal re­sponsibility. Winning is the GOAL, and it is defined in a way through "competitive" molding that one must always strive to WIN at all costs because the only other choice is being a LOSER which is now defined as really being a WORTHLESS human being!

Dear ones, in God's Kingdom, there exist ONLY WINNERS as each contains a fragment of the DIVINE PERFECTION OF GOD CREATOR/CREATION. Remember, you are not in competition with ANY other fragment, for each has unique and individual abilities and talents given of OUR FATHER. None is more or less in reflection of importance unto GOD / ATON. Each has unique creative potential for expanding the awareness and beauty of the constant unfoldment of GOD AND THE CREATION. You must recognize that when you feel "competitive" against another, that which is behind the illusion of "competition" is that you fear being unworthy in COMPARI­SON to the abilities of another. How can you COMPARE one expression of GOD with another? ALL expressions add to the unfolding discovery of THE ONE DIVINE SELF!

We would now like to discuss an activity which you ones call "gambling". Gambling as defined in your dictionary, "1. To RISK or bet something of value on the outcome of a game of chance, etc. 2. To take a risk to obtain a result." We, your brothers of God's Cosmic Council, would like to point out to you, that for many of you, the biggest and most adventurous RISK or gamble you make is when you choose to experience within "the veil of forgetting" here on 3rd dimensional Earth Plane. All other risks you may take in physical form PALE considerably next to this one, when you truly understand that you "risk" your soul becoming lost in the eternity of the "illusion" of matter, and thus also you risk the spiritual freedom and SALVATION of your soul when you choose to experience here. What is the "gain" you are gambling for? The challenge of the opportunity through manifested experience to conquer and RISE above the "illusion" you have created of what is GOD and what is ANTI-GOD or "Adversary" to gain true unlimited GOD POWER and WISDOM. You have the challenge to SELF and to THE ONE ALL THAT IS of incarnating without memory of your DIVINITY and CONNECTION with GOD WITHIN YOU. You live in the "illusion" of separation to journey again unto the discovery of the GLORY of your SOUL connection to THE DIVINE HOLY ONE ALL THAT IS ... CREATOR/­CREATION.

You must know, dear ones, that GOD/ATON AND THE EN­TIRE COSMIC LIGHTED BROTHERHOOD REJOICES when ONE of HIS OWN finds his way back HOME, through the muck and mire of "illusion", to HIS FOLD OF ONENESS WITH ALL THAT IS!! This means, dear ones, that through the desire to KNOW self comes the recognition of GOD, then the recognition of UNITY with all, and then when the recogni­tion of the FOLLY of ANTI-Christ is understood, then you can RECLAIM YOUR GOD-POWER and the Anti-Christ no longer can seduce and take away from you THE TRUTH OF YOUR CONNECTION WITH GOD AND YOUR DIVINITY WITHIN. You have reclaimed YOURSELF as THE SPARK OF GODNESS which YOU ARE and always have BEEN! OH, WHAT JOY THERE IS IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD!!

So all you "gamblers" out there may by now be wondering about whether it be "right" or "wrong" in God's Kingdom to gamble your physical assets, such as money, for the opportunity of higher gain. What be your motivation, dear one? Is it the fun of challenge to self of the playing of the game? Is it desire to Win? Is it desire to Lose? Is it greed or desire for MORE than you need of physical assets which motivates you? Is it de­sire for "status" or recognition among your peers you seek? You see, gambling or taking risk, in itself is not "right" or "wrong"; it is the motivation and true intent of the one who gambles or takes a risk which defines the "rightness" or "wrongness" of the activity. And true intent can only be KNOWN by GOD within EACH one. We would say that every move or decision you make, whether it be in your relationships, in your business, home or whatever, is in essence a "gamble", since you can only weigh the outcome of gain upon what is your TRUE INTENT AND DESIRE within the choice or decision.  Every choice is a "risk" if you do not KNOW what it is you truly desire to create.

If you are fulfilled by the fun and challenge to self of simply playing the game and it does not become obsessive need to win or lose, then enjoy yourself. If you truly learn to monitor the intent of WHY you play the game of risk whether it be business or horse-racing, then you will also learn how to monitor and balance the level of success you need to manifest, to keep in the playing, against the degree of "losses" which you can "afford".
