Christ Mass 2017




Those were unpromising times in the Promised Land. 
High taxes.
Refugees.
Incipient terror lurking, while
                 rampaging autocrats compete in the high halls of power.
No place for an expectant mother and her anxious spouse.

No place for a baby.
In Ethiopian icons (like the one above) the figures gaze obliquely at each other
                   with luminous eyes.
Even the animal onlookers watch, wide-eyed and wondering,
                   with eyes that see beyond Bethlehem, beyond Ethiopia, beyond us
                   and our own unpromising times.
The saintly glances, averted from the scene, seem drawn to some off-stage
                   action,
As if to see all births, all refugees, tyrants and terrorists of other times, popes
                   and presidents of the future and the past.
Their eyes are large to behold a larger world,
A world including us as we are truly seen: awe-struck asses, ogling oxen,
                  nimbic babies basking in light
                  beaming from our mothers’ open eyes.
Christ Mass 2017

Hello dear Friend and Colleague:

We would like to offer you a free book for your daily study and meditation about the future prophesies of the world, economy crisis, the planet ecological disaster, how and why the increasing of earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunamis and typhoons around the world and the end of humanity.

Hercolubus or Red Planet written by V. M. Rabolu is a book which speaks about the most imminent events to come. In this small book, the author tackles serious topics of actuality that are happening nowadays like the atomic tests in the ocean and the fatal consequences causing the unbalance changes of the climate around the world. He describes the controversial question of the existence of conscientious beings in other planets of the universe. Likewise, he confirms the existence of an enormous planet, six times bigger than Jupiter, which is approaching our planet in an alarming way. He describes the consequences for us.

In his book, V. M. Rabolu teaches the system to eliminate the psychological defects and the techniques of the astral unfolding to be the only existing key to escape from the coming cataclysm.

V.M. Rabolu (1926-2000) was born in Tolima (Colombia). In 1952, he found the true knowledge by means of many years of practising what he teaches in this book. He managed to develop his extraordinary capacities that transformed him into a spiritual guide of international renown.

In 1998, he wrote "Hercolubus or Red Planet" based in his direct and conscientious experience. V.M. Rabolu describes the terrible events that will happen in a short term. He teaches the way to obtain a deep transformation of the human being. Nowadays, the statements in his book have been recognized by a large number of readers around the world who are getting many benefits from his teachings.

V.M. Rabolu is one of those few souls with awakened Conscience, and his teachings have become indispensable in these times when materialism and the lack of moral values have transformed our society into a madness and chaos full of wars, alcohol, drugs, sexual abuse, misery, painting a very dark future for new generations.

Hercolubus or the Red Planet is written above all with a great dose of sensibility and love for humanity. The assertions contained in the book will draw the attention of society as the events unfold in the near future.

From the table of contents:

Hercolubus or Red Planet

Nuclear Tests in the ocean and the ecological disasters

Elimination of the Psychological Defects or Egos

Astral Unfolding and its techniques

The mystery of life in other planets

The Book synthesizes our work with three factors: The elimination of the psychological defects, with which every person can achieve scientific chastity and the love for humanity and our planet.

V.M. Rabolu’s message is clear and conclusive: "Human beings must increase their level of conscience to overcome the forthcoming worldwide calamities."
