Stephen's Secure Blog #429
These stories about Stephen began was when he was 10 years old, and
moving to a new part of the country to attend a special school for
gifted students, in the 1950's. This was from a time before computers
would fit on a desk, and when people communicated with friends in other
countries by actual letters sent through the postal service. He wrote
225 of them to a friend. He stopped writing to his penpal, but found he
still wanted to record his life, in case he lost his memory again, and
wrote 30 entries in his first logbook. Then he wrote to an artificial
intelligence called Geenee, in the master computer in his school for
gifted students, which he started attending in 2016. Now it's after
2018, and he's continuing to save his memories in a secure blog.
All characters are fictitious, even if some of them might have names
that belong to some actual people, or act like people we know.
The stories may not be posted in chronological order.
Stephen is 23 in this story, in Fall of year 14 of his special school.
Stephen's Secure Blog #429 "Nagindra Visit Earth"
START Page
I asked for a meeting with Reting, in his Monastery of the same name,
in Tibet. I said "You've met Minster?" He grinned and said, "I have." I
said "I would like to bring some adult Adept students of mine from his
planet, here to visit." He said "They must be reformed, then." I said
"Yes, and I can hardly believe it. I didn't cause it directly, but it
happened from my just being nice to them. None of us believed those who
had gone down the Dark Path so far, could become of the Light, but it
happened." He said "I would be happy to show them what you made for us.
And they must see your other wonders." I said "I will be asking their
er, caretakers, but yours, being the most impressive, in my opinion,
I'm asking you first. And then from Sera, they will experience my love
and healing broadcast, before we schedule that for their world, that
they asked for." He said "Good. That will change more of them for the
better." I said "Shhh, they don't know that." He laughed. We hugged
with love.
I visited the other Abbots, and had similar responses. Then I had a
meeting with Sharon at her office in the Smithsonian. She said "Your
light spire is very popular, and we've had no demands from the
government for examination." I said "Actually, now that they know
better, publicly, after the Bill Gats affair, that danger is much less,
but the opposite is true for corporate interests. They believe the
first to discover how my strange things work, will give them a gigantic
advantage over their competitors. It would, if they could succeed. They
can't, but they can't afford to give up any possibility that they can."
She said "So that's why you made the cubes available first, so they
would have something small and simple to work on, that they wouldn't
have to steal." I said "I'm SO exposed!" She laughed. We made
arrangements for the Nagindra visit.
Ichi ported to a meeting of the Nagindra students, which I monitored,
and introduced himself, and said, "Here is my world. Here is how your
people evolved and migrated until they were in this new land 25,000
years ago, when they were captured and taken as slaves. My land is
here, and on the North island, what few remain of your closest
relatives, still live. We will not be seeing them, because your visit
must be in secret. Only a few Adepts and a museum director will know.
My world is not ready for interstellar contact. Here is where the most
important museum is. We will be going to the museum after they close
for the day. There are many buildings, and we will try to visit as many
of them as we can, if you want to. If you don't bring cameras, well,
you don't want Stephen to think badly of you, do you, for not
documenting everything you see?" They grinned.
Ichi said "On the other side of the world is a newly freed country
called Tibet. They are VERY religious, and most of their religious
leaders are Adepts. You would, as fellow adult students of Stephen, be
considered their equals, but in all the world, nobody is near being
Stephen's equal. Yes, he had to come out in the open to free Tibet, and
to explain his world love broadcasts. They know him as a great artist
in many forms, including writing and music, a scientist and inventor,
and the premiere religious figure alive. If he is with us in Tibet, you
must show him great respect in public, or the people there could become
violent. Yes, that's actually happened. It stops when Stephen stops
restricting his power, and lets it flow naturally. You may see that in
Tibet. Quite an experience, actually. I'll show you now a confrontation
over something Stephen had created, which you will see soon." He showed
them the scene at the Wheel of Life, translated. They had a mix of awe
and laughter. The Leader said "We've seen him in action on our ships,
but this is different. VERY effective!" Ichi grinned and said, "Always,
and often funny to the people who witness it." They grinned and nodded.
Ichi said "Here is Stephen conducting a tour of one of his creations,
for a very important person." He showed the scene with the old man on
the Ruby Bridge. They were in awe.
Ichi said "Some of the places on Earth, such as Tibet, would cause
you harm to instantly appear there. Significant air pressure
differences and changes can cause serious injuries. And there are
variances in temperatures. For your protection, including the
microbial, you will wear these environmental control pendants. They
will keep you comfortable and safe, even in airless space. Where there
isn't much to see, actually. No, I can't tell you how they work. Only
Stephen, who made them, knows that completely. My belt does the same
for me, but is completely mentally controlled. If, when, you progress
in your studies to the point where you would be able to safely operate
our mentally controlled devices, you will have them. I see some doubt.
You know I do not lie. Not all our adult students progress that far,
and for those who do, it can take many years for that to happen, but it
has for some. For Zander, the operator of our largest school, some of
his adult students advanced to that level before he did. Here is what
he looks like." They said "Wow!" Ichi said "His people are not known
for aggression, although they can fight very well when they need to.
The teeth are for sexual attraction. You might want to avoid too much
kissing with them." Laughter. He said "They are the most respected
species in their empire, called the Galactic Council. And they laugh so
hard at Stephen's jokes, he had to invent special chairs to keep them
from falling out of them." They laughed hard, and Ichi said, "Almost
like that." They laughed some more, and he said, "Yes, we all have a
sense of humor, and that has helped us to win peace from conflict many
times." They nodded in pleased acceptance.
Ichi said "I will return at the appointed time, to take you to the
museum. Only those present here now will be accepted. I see you want to
ask if Stephen will be with us. He was on the last tour of this kind,
and the museum director severely embarrassed him, almost continuously."
They laughed really hard. He said "He is their display illustrator, and
much of his artwork is there, and she made sure they all knew that.
VERY often, which Stephen had to translate. I doubt he would want to
experience that again." They laughed some more. They said their
goodbyes, and Ichi ported away. He came back to port them to the
museum, at the scheduled time. He made them put the pendants on, and
said, "They have another function. All but Adepts and the museum
director will see you not as you are, but as if you are of their own
kind. I see some of you had wondered about that. Fixed. Ready? First
outside to Stephen's monument. It's on other worlds, too. People won't
notice us arrive or depart. Yes, I will be causing that. Here we go!"
He ported them to outside the space building, and they looked in awe
at the big light cube in the dark. After that, they ported to the
Natural History museum. They were fascinated by the Early Man Exhibit.
Sharon said "Much of the information here has been revised since
Stephen became able to see into the past, and these are his creations."
At the minerals exhibit, she said, "Much of the samples here were
provided by Stephen, replacing those that weren't as good. This box was
his first donation to us, when he was a child. Yes, all his own work.
Major museums on other worlds he has visited in the open, have similar
boxes. He absolutely LOVES museums, and likes to have a part of him
there when he visits that planet. Someday your best museum should have
at least one thing of his, to help tie us together, which is what he
does this for. More, with that monument to Welcome, that you saw
outside."
At other museums, she pointed out a lot of my things, and a lot of
them were in the Native American building. At the end of the tour, she
showed them the miniature Castle Building. She said "In Tibet, you will
see buildings like that, and much better looking, in full size, that
Stephen made in minutes. I see you disbelieve. Do you think Ichi would
let me lie, even if I wanted to, without correcting me? They all don't
lie, or support lies they hear." They bowed to her in apology. She said
"Like he made the diamond trees. Same process." They showed
tried to hide their smiles, which she noticed anyway. I ported in, and
said, "And have them smashed to pieces like they did?" They looked very
embarrassed. Sharon said, "Yes, I see the problem. Precious material
out in the open, and we can't really search our guests for rock
hammers. I think even quartz trees, known to be made by you, could
still have that problem, but that can't keep me from wishing." I said
"Right. Can't take away wishes, even after you did it again here." She
grinned, showing she knew what I meant, and said, "Aren't we supposed
to do that, being proud to have your work?" I growled, and they all
laughed.
I said "Here are some things. I'll port them to San's home. Files of
translations of all the books they sell here. Some of my books on your
people, too. And Ichi's. Documentary movies I made of what happened to
your people in the past. One of them is playing now, actually, and has
won awards. Ichi will port with you home now. I'll see you next week
for the trip to Tibet, if you will have sufficiently recovered from
this er, adventure. Oh. Hawk reports one less Adept now. He will meet
you there. You know what to do for him." Then nodded. They vanished. I
said to Sharon, "Hawk is removing the psionics of anybody who tries to
hurt people with them, in their empire. No, we aren't warning them any
more than them knowing about what the corpses did. We don't want them
to hide who they are, to prevent us from correcting the problems they
present. I was going to do it, but Hawk insisted he be the one. I lost
my abilities before. His love for me won't let me feel what the others
would feel when it happens to them, to remind me of that." She had some
tears, and we hugged with love.
I ported to San's house. I said "We'll port those needing healing to
us when it's time for it. They will stay where they are until that
time. Pendants on." They did that. I said "We are going to my house in
Tibet, which I only use for meetings there." I ported us there. I said
"I made this in a few minutes, when I needed it to help me host a news
crew. All the art is mine. Would you like a tour?" They did, and had
the usual remarks and questions. They marveled at everything. In the
gym, I said, "Those of my school train the hardest of anybody I know. I
do it for two hours a day, minimum, which even a few minutes of would
kill the average person. I see you have trouble believing that. Which
of you is the strongest?" The biggest and healthiest looking stepped
forward. I looked up at him and grinned, and said, "Somehow, I'm not
surprised." They laughed. I picked up a steel bar, and said, "Here,
bend this." He tried and failed. I took off my shirts, and built up my
muscles and Ki, and then with a big silent scream, I bent it almost in
half. They looked at me in surprised awe, while I was settling my
muscles back to normal, and said, "No special powers. Just my body and
training." I went to the punching bag, and, with a roundhouse, kicked
it across the room. I said "Any two men, please try to bring it back."
They couldn't, but I picked it up easily. I said "A strong, well
trained, and disciplined body can help create those things for the
mind, which we need in order to operate our mentally controlled tech
safely. Yes, those you've met of us, can do this, too. Now you see why
we train from early childhood." They nodded, still in awe.
Then we went out to see the Wheel of Life. I explained why I made it,
and what it meant. They wanted to know how it stayed up there. I said
"It uses tech similar to our porting and the way your pendants operate.
When you become able to understand it, I can help you learn more about
it. You are feeling something different from me now. That is my
personal force, which is known in advanced martial arts by different
names. It is flowing from me without restriction now. That is what I'm
using to keep those people from noticing us. I don't do that often,
because I value free will much more than my convenience, but our
presence here, if they knew of it, would cause a major disruption, and
possibly injuries. Now I will port us to the Ruby Bridge." I did that,
and we walked it with the Abbot.
I said "All the material is real, and precious, but it is protected
from er, harvesting, and other damage, by the same principle that is
used for your pendants. Here, use this steel bar on it." One did, and
it bounced out of his hand. I caught it with a 4th hand and brought it
back. The Abbot said with a grin, "Harvesting! I like that one." I
bowed my thanks to him, which he returned. I said to the group, "We
won't be going to my Temple of Love. You wouldn't want to leave it.
Probably full of people, anyway. It's VERY popular." The Abbot said
with an even bigger grin, "Absolutely! Although your construction
barrier here was not so unappreciated." I said to the others, "Pressing
up against the force field I used to keep the Monks away from the
construction, caused them to squirt hard. That activity was VERY
popular for the few minutes I had it in place during the construction,
which I made take longer than necessary, for their enjoyment." They had
an assortment of very strange expressions, which made me grin, and the
Abbot laugh. He said to me, "I didn't know you were making it longer,
while they were making it longer." I grinned wider, and said, "Good
one!" He was really not unhappy with that. One of the group said, "Oh.
Hmm, that Temple of Love idea looks a lot more attractive now." A lot
agreed with him. I said "You know Hawk is laughing his head almost off
his shoulders now." They had to laugh.
I ported them to the crystal square, and they walked around on it and
marveled. I ported them to in front of the government building, and
they had a lot of awed expressions and comments. We went inside, and
then into some offices and other rooms. Then we walked the Road to
Sera. I explained what they were hearing, and I said, "This was the
last of my Monastery additions to poke the other government with. Then
I built a new Monastery to replace one that wasn't fit to be repaired.
The most unusual and unique feature of that establishment was the idea
of the Abbot. We will visit that the last. Ready to port?" We did, and
met the Abbot at the entrance to the grounds, and walked past the
floating Pavilion of The Dharma. They almost twisted their necks in a
knot, trying to keep their eyes on it, which amused the rest of us. We
toured grand halls, dorm rooms, and other constructions and features.
Reting explained it all. It was dark by then, when we went to the
floater. I explained its features and construction, and we went up the
invisible steps. There were some students there, but we didn't hear
them reciting, and they didn't hear us. We left, and one didn't
remember to put the control stone back, and experienced the pinched
butt reminder. There was some laughter, when I said, "Oh, did I forget
to mention that?"
We said farewell to Reting, and I ported us to my house. I said "We
have some time now, for bathroom and food things if you want." They
did, and marveled at the blue light cleaner and the food makers, which
I had programed with their food. Then we talked in the living room. The
Leader said, "You don't offer these things to your world?" I said
"Correct. They would destroy the economy, and result in much suffering
and death. And much of this just isn't safe for people who aren't
Adepts, and governments would destroy everything, trying to find out
how it works, and fail. I only have these things where that won't
happen, such as where they are considered sacred things." He nodded and
said, "Frustrating and disappointing, but wise." Ichi, who had met us
there, said, "Wisdom is often that, which is why it is needed." They
looked at him in appreciation, which embarrassed him. I tried not to
grin.
One said to me, "We were told of what you are known for, and we have
seen much of it, but we haven't heard any of your music." I said
"Appreciation of music varies by culture, and significantly by species.
I had no idea that a kind of advanced folk music from a country on the
other side of the world, would be the most popular of what I've done,
here. My singing might have helped it a little. They er, like me a
little here." Ichi laughed, and they appreciated my understatement. I
said "I don't have a music room in this house. Are any of you
musicians?" Three said they were, and almost professional. I said "We
have some time. Shall we port to a music room?" They wanted to, so we
ported to that in my house on Allguard. They wanted to know where it
was, and and I said, "That is not for now, but someday you might know.
I can play any instrument here." Ichi said "And the best in human
history." I poked him, and he laughed. I asked the musicians about
their instruments, and scanned their world for them, and made some, and
ported them in. Two were stringed instruments like a guitar, and one
was almost exactly like one of our concert flutes. I said "May I try
your instruments?" They agreed, and I found the tuning was mostly the
same as ours, but slightly different scales. I said "So, should I play
your music or mine?" One said, "You know ours?" I said "I do, now. I
researched that while I was researching and making the instruments.
I've done that during concerts on my world, too, in challenges. Some
were a little surprised." They grinned, and caught Ichi nodding
approval at them. I played some of their most difficult songs, and they
were amazed. Then astounded, when I let my voice go all out in singing
one. They played some things, and more, when I accompanied them on the
piano.
When it was almost time for the September 1st love broadcast, I said,
"Maybe we can do this again some time. Rose and Hawk are fine
musicians, too, and can play all these instruments, and sometimes we
trade them in the middle of the song. It's almost time for the
broadcast. Ichi will join me in it this time." He bowed. I said "I will
port your instruments to San's home for you, in cases. We will port to
the pavilion at the Road to Sera." We did, when they were ready. I said
"This is Rhamcha. Before he was an Abbot, and the Regent of this
country, I used to meet him here, before we would go and tour a
Monastery. This is my only large construction that has only my own
sayings." They read some. Ichi went to get those who were to test the
healing. They ported back. I said "A warning. I will be doing some
unusual things before and during the broadcast. What you will see is
real, but not quite the reality you are accustomed to. The people who
are arriving to witness this, know now not to try to come up the road
too far to join us. They know we have only honored guests with us. If
you want to derive the most from this experience, open your senses
wide, and ride with it. Do not disturb me while I am changed. You could
be harmed. If you need to, save up your wows for later expressing."
Chuckles.
I stepped to the Road, Ichi at my side, but two meters away, and
identity hidden. I started to glow, as I gathered all the free energy
around me, which was a lot, from people giving it in their prayers, and
added more through a 4th hookup. Ichi was doing the same. I grew very
tall. Gigantic, actually. I raised my arms, glowing even brighter. I
could hear some gasps behind me, and felt Ichi's amusement. He and I
connected, and we sent our love out to the whole world, and then God
joined us for the healing. Then it was over, and my glow faded, and I
shrunk back down to normal size. I turned back to the pavilion, and saw
that our guests for the healing were whole, and very astounded and
grateful. I had to tell them more than once, that it wasn't me who did
it, but God. I said to the students, who were looking at me like
worshippers, "Hey! I'm just a man. Want to fight about it?" The Leader
recovered first, with a great effort, and said, "Not after we saw what
you did to that poor bag!" Ichi said "Proper answer." They chuckled.
I said "If you want my broadcast there, you need to schedule it, and
warn them. Also, they need to know something about me. It must be the
truth, but NOT to encourage worship. People should be free to choose to
do good for the right reasons, not to please somebody they worship. I
hope you can understand that." He nodded and bowed, which I returned. I
said "From your experience, you now know that what I do doesn't change
you, beyond what feeling my love might do to those who have not known
love before. Your people have learned not to trust anybody, especially
those with psionics. Those who don't want to experience my love, and
the associated possible healing, can deny it as it starts, and it will
pass them by. Many here tried to sue me in court for healing them
against their wishes, but none ever wanted to go back the way they were
before." They grinned. I said "After my love broadcast, your world will
know of me, so I will be able to visit you in person when needed, after
that. Until then, if you agree, I will give you my personal love."
Quite eagerly, they came into my arms, one by one. Ichi helped them
to sit, after. The daughter who had the birth defect was last, and she
didn't want to let go. I said to her with a smile, "We can't stay like
this forever. Going to the bathroom when we need to, will be a little
difficult." She had to laugh. I said "I love your laugh. Please do it
often." She went to her father. I said "Ready to port?" They were, and
Ichi went back to their planet with them. Rose and Hawk were there, to
answer questions if they had any. Ichi came and sat with me and
Rhamcha, who said, "I think these times will never be repeated." Ichi
said, "Recorded, though." I said "That's one advantage we have over the
past. The future will have a difficult time lying about us." Rhamcha
said, "That won't stop them from trying." We nodded in agreement, and
shared our love.
