Chapter 4
The point I am trying to make is that by the use of prosthetics, we are in a position to employ an algorithm that includes reason and feedback! According to Prof. Robinson, translators must be trained; they must not only know the other language, they must know "how to regulate the degree of fidelity with the source text, how to tell what degree and type of fidelity is appropriate in specific use contexts, how to receive and deliver translations, how to find help with terminology, and so on." All of this suggests a long period of training and preparation, study, analysis, and correcting those translations done when competence was insufficient. Adapting Prof. Robinson's ideas to the subject at hand, it seems that a Translator channel is someone who has studied these things, who knows these things, and who, most importantly, governs their channeling-translating behavior in terms of this knowledge. This knowledge is ideological. It is controlled by Cosmic ideological norms. To know, via reason, what those Cosmic norms prescribe and act upon them is to submit the work to the intent of the original author. If you want to become a translator-channel, you must submit to the translator's role of learning the language in an expert way; you must submit to being directed by what the Cosmic ideological norms inform you is the true spirit of the source author, and to channel that spirit into the target language, constantly utilizing research and reason in the rapid feedback loop. For the period of training, of learning the Cosmic language in an expert way, the use of a board type instrument combined with long study and analysis of the material, is essential. It is a prosthetic device that allows constant feedback between the algorithm of "machine translation" of the subconscious/ unconscious, and the human interface of the conscious mind which must constantly employ reason for "tuning." This is possible only with a board due to the fact that the "channel" is using both the conscious bypass for reception, while at the same time is able to maintain constant conscious integrity. By being, at all times, in full possession of their own mind and having the ability to observe, control and direct acceptance or rejection of any material or sensation at any time, reason is brought in as part of the algorithm. Of course, as we have seen, the problem is compounded by the consideration of the effect of conflicting forces at higher levels and how they can and do utilize their "human tools" in our reality. This brings us back to the human dynamics themselves, the expressions of the "battle" between the forces of Darkness and Light. At this point, we need to briefly visit one of the side issues between Frank and the previously mentioned individual, V** which demonstrates part of the problem. As I already mentioned, I had the idea that positive experiences in his interactions with people would reframe his view of the world, strengthen his will and potential toward Serving Others, and get him off the suicide rants that were draining me almost daily. With my struggles to recover from the accident consisting of therapy three days a week, five very active children, a house to run, all the transcribing and research on the subjects the C's had covered, I was running out of energy and the demands made on me by Frank were becoming insupportable even if I refused to admit it. For the most part, he seemed to be entirely oblivious to the effect he was having on me, but I continued to excuse it because he said all the right things about his aspirations for "doing good" or "helping others" or whatever. Besides, he had said he was a higher spiritual being so often, and had certainly demonstrated time and again that he was so different from most people, that I had come to think that it may very possibly be true. And that meant, of course, that it was doubly important for me to help such a being adjust to life in this reality where everything was so extremely difficult for Frank. On New Year's Eve of 1995, we had our standard New Year gathering in spite of the fact that I was trying to recover from the accident. I couldn't disappoint all the people who had been planning on attending no matter how bad I felt, and the children all agreed to help with getting the house ready and managing the affair. There were about 20 people in attendance, and we decided to have a session so that the Cassiopaeans could "attend the celebration" as well. It was a festive occasion, and Frank, as the "center of attention," was having a great time. I was very pleased to see it, since the past few months had been a truly dreadful series of his "episodes." Everybody took turns at the board, and at one point, it was Frank and two other men, and the planchette kept flying around faster than anyone could keep up with. Nothing that was especially "Cassiopaean" was said, and Frank became more and more expansive as the guests oohed and aaahed over his abilities as a "channel." Everybody except V**. At one point she noted rather sarcastically that a comment the "C's" made was strangely similar to a remark that Frank had made to her not too many days before. I jumped immediately to his defense because I most definitely did not want anything to take away from his experience of being positively received by others.
Terry had been carefully examining the material in the previous weeks since he and Jan and become regular members of the group. He was certain, based on the passages I have already quoted, as well as on-the-scene observation, that Frank was not The Channel in the sense that Frank claimed. In the above excerpt, the reader will also note that Terry started to ask a question about this, and was interrupted by the clear statement that "Frank is channel. Others are grooving rapidly." The fact that this contradicted previous remarks that had been made under more controlled or balanced circumstances than a New Year's Eve party where half the people were well on the road to inebriation was not lost on me, but I was so desperate for Frank to have some feeling of self-esteem about something - anything - that I allowed it to pass without comment. For all I knew, it was true. It was most certainly true that the speed and ease of transmission was very good with Frank present. And, of course, the reader who has read the subsequent transcripts, will note that V** had to be castigated for her lack of belief in Frank as The Channel. Nevertheless, she had seen something, and it wouldn't go away.
