New Age sources • Jach Pursel, a former Florida insurance agent living in Los Angeles, squints his eyes and speaks with the voice of Lazaris, a spiritual entity of uncertain origins. "How old are you?" he asked. "In our reality, we have no time," says Lazaris. "Why are you making your presence known to man?" "Because you are ready now..." "Is the world about to end?" "No. In a word, no. This is not the ending. This is the beginning." [Time, New Age Harmonies, page 66, Dec. 7, 1987.] • Shirley Maclaine said, "We are at any given moment living the totality of everything....The vibrational oscillation of nature is quickening....Just remember that you are God, and act accordingly."
