About Helen Benbow | Helen's Blog | Interview | Friends' Words

Read a previous interview with Helen Benbow 1st July, 2001-07-01 Q: Would you say you were religious? A: No. Q: Then you are obviously spiritual, how did this come about? A. I don't know about it being obvious. I think of myself - when I think of myself at all - as being earthy, practical yet fully aware there is more to life here on this plane. I've become more and more conscious of the shocking ignorance that is rife in the community - and by community I mean worldwide. But perhaps I should endeavour to confine it to what we call the 'Western World'. Certainly, although I know little about them, the Eastern beliefs seems to have a far greater understanding of eternity. Splitting your question into two answers, 'how did this come about.' It was my questioning mind. The Catholic religion certainly left many, many statements unanswered to my way of thinking. You were, metaphorically speaking, flogged into believing everything you were taught about their religion - the breakaway religions didn't seem much better - but once I removed myself from this narrow way of thought, then as my eventful life occurred, the answers were, to me, obvious. Q: What do you mean by that? A: Firstly, I think, in a physical sense, the most important thing is to be kind to one another. In a verbal sense, to always tell the truth. Look, I'll dig and dig until I find the truth of an assertion when I'm not happy about something, or convinced of its veracity. I'm not limited in my thinking by physical manifestations of the truth. But by and large the human race needs physical evidence and I understand this need. I am sceptical about many things so I sought the truth. I certainly doubted as a five year old many of the rules I was being taught by the Catholics - and I queried them. The strange thing is that I truly believed god, Yahweh, was perfect, flawless. Q. I'll ask you about your last remark later. I agree we do need some sort of physical evidence, so what can you prove, or explain, in your Quartet that will help people understand the meaning of eternity? A. Firstly, many people are seeking eternity in a physical body. Now there's some new sect, creed, whatever, saying they can clone the person who desires to live eternally and place them in a similar body. A clone of say you, or myself, as I am today. But that's not how eternity works! All of us have a 'spirit' in our bodies. That is what is eternal... and that spirit body, which is the exact mirror of you, me, everyone, is physical in its higher dimension. When I die, my spirit body will leave my physical body, which it has used to enjoy, live, learn, suffer, give, lose, endure, all the human experience, whether I've failed or succeeded, that spirit body then carries all of my experiences and knowledge when I physically die. But if I'm cloned by someone, there's no guarantee my spirit will again inhabit that cloned body. These sects are playing around with Creation. They haven't created a single solitary thing. They've merely learned how to imitate or learn from the only Creator, Light of Light. Worse, they are blowing all the wonders of His Creation into, for the greater part, evil. Q. You mention the word evil again. If you thought god was perfect, why did you change your mind. Why do you say he is evil now? A: First of all, right from the time the Race of Man was placed on Earth only about forty thousand years ago, events were not working out as they should when you look at it logically. Even so I didn't make my discovery until September, 1998. When I did, and I'd really like to say it was more like a revelation than a discovery, or perhaps it was a combination of both factors, it blew my mind. Anyway I was on the beach at Seal Rocks (in N.S.W) of all places when this realisation shocked me to the core. Now when this happened, everything I had ever queried - and that's all my life - suddenly made sense. God Was Evil! I was stunned by this but I knew it was true. Every piece of major injustice, cruelty, wars, at that moment all had a logic about them. It was then I scrapped everything I'd been writing about in my Quartet because I was forcing it, in my mind I couldn't make it fit and subsequently it seemed childish to me. I truly believed at that time that Ankor was the one who was evil - he has enormous power by the way. When I knew it was Yahweh who was evil and at the seat of all evil, well, I scrapped the first 1,000 pages and began all over again. It was then the history of all I knew came to me. It started to flow effortlessly. It was fascinating to me. For some months after I realised it was god, Yahweh, who was evil I pondered deeply on the responsibility involved in writing this saga. But after a few months I felt compelled to write it. So much of the dialogue in this saga is real, you know. Yet I'll sound a nutter just for making that statement, but now I don't mind. I feel on such sure ground even this fact even fascinates me. Q: Why are you so sure now, then, Helen? A: By coincidence I was watching a TV Program and they mentioned the bible and Genesis 22 and Yahweh's promise to Abraham about spreading his seed around the world. Then you go back to Genesis 16 and discover Abraham sired Ismael. An angel being sent in this instance to deliver the good news to Agar, the young and lovely mother, maid to Sarah, who gave birth to a healthy young man who, it was promised by the angel to Agar 'I will so multiply your posterity that it shall be too many to count.' Abraham was by then eighty six. Now, read on through to Genesis 22 as it makes thought provoking reading. God decides to test Abraham by telling him to take Isaac, at best a sickly child with an ancient mother and father. "Take your only son Isaac whom you love and go into the district of Moria and there offer him as a holocaust on the hill I shall point out to you." Diverting, and briefly recounting from Genesis 21, we now have Agar and Ismail shot out into the desert by Abraham - what sort of a man was he to do that? At the time God did say to Abraham "I will also make the son of the slave-girl a great nation because he is your offspring" Think! I did. Right, so now Abraham is ready to burn his son, Isaac to death. Charming. Cutting to the bottom line, this time an angel of the Lord called from heaven to Abraham, gives Abraham a reprieve so they burn a sheep instead. Goody. Or is it? In summary, the angel says to Abraham, from Yahweh: "I will indeed bless you and will surely multiply your descendants as the stars of the heavens, as the sands on the seashore. Your descendants shall possess the gates of their enemies. In your descendants all the nations of the earth shall be blessed because you have obeyed me". For me there's only one conclusion. God, Yahweh, set up the whole situation for the current Middle East debacle way back at the beginning of the Jewish tribe. And there's the proof in the bible - which I only regard as the history of the Jewish tribe, let it be said, for is not that also the truth? Now the old testament may vary in the wording of Genesis, I'm taking it from my Holy Bible copyright 1953 by the Catholic Books, Inc. In my opinion Yahweh has merely used the Jews, they don't know this, but many are intelligent enough to wonder if perhaps I'm not correct in saying this - again, look at the Middle East. Hitler disposed of six million Jews, Stalin twenty million. This tends to lead you to believe they aren't the most popular race in the world. I believe the Jews are merely puppets in the eyes of Yahweh. Ismael despised his father, Abraham, for what was to done to himself and his mother - and rightly so. And from then the endless war began. If I'd been god, I'd have known I could do what I liked with Abraham, when the old man was quite ready to burn his son to death. And this is the man revered by the Jews. And if I'd been Yahweh, I'd have known I had a whole tribe in the palm of my hands to do with as I wished, particularly if I was evil and I had the power and clout of Yahweh. And what sort of a god asks and does things like that anyway? To me the answer is obvious. God is evil. Q. What sort of a question can I answer after that! That's pretty mind blowing. A: It is. Hence the quartet because if I'm going to talk about such a huge subject, then I've got to go back to the Beginning. To The Creator Himself, who is Light of Light, not god, not Yahweh. But I'm leaving it for the readers to make up their own minds as to fact, fantasy or fiction. The readers will think, that's the main thing. If we could straighten out the mess this planet is in, that would be little short of a miracle, but its worth the effort. I reveal the Master Plans of the Universe, how Light of Light felt at the time of the Big Bang, I talk of many things, events and people - well the gods and goddesses in the Hierarchy, their lifestyle, loves, duties. And you can't do that in one paragraph. I need to explain, yet entertain my readers with the real truth, to explain so called 'occult' matters so folk can understand the psychic, not the rubbish that is given out by so many cults who are in it for a short period to make a great deal of money. I reveal many things in the fourth book, 'Where Parallels Meet'. I believe this will be the most intriguing of all and it is certainly mind blowing to those who understand what I'm saying. Others, the deeply religious, will mock both myself and what I say. But even so they will still think. Q: Alright, why you? Who are you? A: Why Mozart, why Beethoven? Why Leonardo da Vinci? Who am I? "I am what you want me to be." Read a previous interview with Helen Would you like to ask Helen a question for her next interview? Your question for Helen: your name: your email:
