the region of a fault line in America, watched her dog so closely that they became totally telepathic. One day, whilst she was out shopping with a friend, she had a panic attack. It had never happened before, but it was so bad that she decided to return home. When she got there she found that her dog, who was usually very docile, was wailing and throwing itself at the walls of its enclosure. She let the dog out, but it tugged at her coat, trying to drag her away from the house. She realised then that something serious was about to happen and that her panic attack had been caused by a telepathic message from her dog. She dashed back inside the house, threw a few things into a suitcase, warned her neighbour, then drove away. It was only when she arrived at her sister’s home fifty miles away that she relaxed.

      Although she sat glued to the television for any news of a disaster, nothing was reported, and after three days she decided to return home. Whilst she was packing her case, her brother-in-law rushed in to tell her that there had been an earthquake in her home town and that several houses had been demolished.

      My friend managed to get through to the local police, and was told that although her house was still standing, it had been badly damaged by falling debris. When she arrived home and saw the size and volume of the debris, she realised that she could have been killed. Her dog had almost certainly saved her life.

      I believe that scientists should work with ecologists before they proceed with schemes that could further disrupt natural wavelengths. They may collect accolades for their inventions along the way, but if these same inventions create negative environmental results, even the scientists will not be able to escape the consequences.

      Man cannot walk alone. For too long, arrogance and greed have killed and maimed those who are not rich enough to fight back. Honours should only be given to men and women who have tried to make this world a better place for everyone. Unfortunately, ordinary people and animals alike are being manipulated by minds which are not spiritually inclined, and in the end this can only lead to disaster – for both victims and perpetrators.

      For example, the underground testing of the H-bomb has led to terrible problems for communities who depend on the products of the sea for their survival. In some areas coral reefs, which in the past have created safe havens for both humans and marine life, have been shattered and destroyed, and the whole ecological structure of these areas has been altered.

      If this is happening in coastal areas near H-bomb testing, what is happening beneath the Earth’s crust? No matter how sophisticated our technology may be, it will never be able to stop the destruction of our planet whilst it is being abused in this way. Even though we cannot see what is going on in the centre of the Earth, that does not mean that it is safe. Earthquakes are becoming more frequent, even in areas that have never experienced them before, and if you follow the route they are taking around the world, it is obvious that geological problems exist that we can no longer afford to ignore.

      The terrible tragedies being played out above ground are small compared to those we cannot see. They will surface in time, but by then it will be too late to turn back. We are seeing hurricanes and tidal waves, tornadoes and floods, and eruptions from volcanoes that have been dormant for generations. The list goes on and on. Some would argue that this is nothing new, that these conditions have existed since the beginning of time. But this kind of thinking is only evading the issue. The pattern has changed. Now there are too many catastrophes happening too often, and studies of these patterns suggest an urgency about the situation that we have never seen before.

      Through my work I have seen the most appalling tragedies when it comes to ‘pay-back time’. We all have to live with this thought, because Universal Law is unbending and unchanging, and it is a great teacher. In fact, it has been the only constant thing throughout my life. It has taught me that there is no hiding place. The justice given out by the laws of the land are a pale substitute for those we will eventually receive from spiritual sources.

      Meanwhile, animals are suffering. Whales are washed up on beaches, miles from their usual habitat. When they are shepherded out to sea by the incredibly hard-working and compassionate teams of people who always turn out on these occasions, the whales will invariably swim back to a certain death on shore. Their natural radar – which has kept them out of trouble in the past – has been affected by unnatural vibrations above and beneath the sea.

      Similarly, migrating birds are losing their way. Several species arrive at destinations that are foreign to them, and then have to contend with climates that cannot protect them.

      Hundreds of these stories are brought to us on our televisions and in our newspapers every day. But what are we doing about it? Each and every one of us has to take an active part and participate in the discussions and decisions which at the moment are left to small minority groups. Otherwise the collapse of the Earth’s structure will have a ‘knock-on’ effect on a scale we have yet to experience.

      Take the time to study what is happening in your own country, and around the world. Whatever you do, don’t put your head in the sand and pretend that it won’t affect you, because it will.

      Humanity has survived for well over 4,600 million years, in spite of the fact that it has experienced awesome changes – changes that have destroyed whole civilisations.

      Long ago, people knew little of the world outside their own community, but within their own boundaries they instinctively knew that if they contaminated their surroundings they would die. In the forest, for examples, tribes would use a particular area for a time and then move on so that the region could regenerate.

      Today, because of over-population, we all have to live amidst the rubbish heaps that are increasing in number and size every day. There is no place on earth that has not been affected, and yet it seems that governments around the world are still not prepared to spend enough money on environmental issues. The balance that sustains life on this planet is far more fragile than most people realise.

      Acid rain is corrosive. It not only damages buildings but also kills trees, freshwater fish and vegetation. Two of the main sources of acid rain are the sulphur dioxide that emanates from coal-burning power stations and the nitrogen oxides from car exhausts. But how many people think about these issues? Most simply want to get from A to B as quickly as possible, no matter what the consequences may be.

      Every nation needs to address these problems before it is too late. Damage to the ozone layer has already affected millions. People can no longer sunbathe in safety because of the fear of contracting skin cancer, but little has been written about the way it has affected the rest of our lives. There used to be a time when summer vacations by the sea were relaxing and health-giving. This has changed dramatically. Now we are advised to protect ourselves by covering up, and to study the pollution charts to find out whether a particular part of the coast is safe for bathing. In fact, there are no safe bathing areas now, simply those that haven’t quite reached the level of pollution considered to be dangerous to our health.

      I was asked to heal the skin of someone who had been burned by chemicals whilst swimming in the sea. When his family investigated, they found that a factory was spilling chemicals into a river that led into that part of the coast.

      I also saw a little girl who lost her sight because of polluted sea water, and it took several months of treatment before she regained full vision. She was lucky. Wind surfers too have suffered skin complaints after being in contact with sea water, even though they wear protective clothing. The list is endless.

      Casualties are not only human, either. Thousands of fish are deformed and are chemically neutered, and so cannot breed, because of the hormones that are finding their way into the sea.

      The latest news, in the year 2000, is that the biggest hole in the ozone layer over the northern hemisphere will appear this spring. This means that Britain and Europe will be even more exposed to the harmful ultraviolet rays which cause ageing and skin cancer. Farming under these circumstances will be extremely difficult, as some crops will fail without the protection of the ozone layer.

      From research commissioned by Friends of the Earth, it has been found that the air quality in Britain deteriorated in 1999 to its worst level for a decade. Poor air quality is estimated to cause 24,000 premature deaths in Britain each year. Traffic
