The tables are set with gold service trimmed in intricately designed
silver. The napkins are embroidered with silver on cloth finer than
linen. A steaming hot fish on a large golden platter is placed in front
of each one. Chalices filled with a liquid that looks like wine, yet
doesn't smell like it, are being served. A fluffy bread of a rich
yellow color is placed upon the table, also a green vegetable. It looks
like there is more here than we will be able to eat.
The head spiritual leader has arisen to say grace. He is saying, "the
fish in front of each one represents symbolically the eternal quality
of purity, for its birth is given by the life-giving fluids known as
water, of which eighty percent or more, of all form-life is composed.
It is the purest of all liquids and without it no form could be."
"We give thanks unto the Great Creator of all creations for the
privilege and the honor bestowed upon us, the people of Venus, to come
face to face with our brothers from another Mansion of Thy planetary
House, known as Earth. This is the first time this privilege has been
granted since the race of wisdom known as the Triton race was on Earth.
The liquids which flow through the veins of every form in each Mansion
of the many within Thy House is the same in all, for it flows out of
the heart of the Creator into its creations. We are now gathered to
feast as one, to partake of the good things which the Creator has given
unto us, that our bodies and our minds shall be quickened to the wisdom
and the guidance that is yet to come."
We feel so still that we are hardly aware that those about us have
started to eat. As we regain our senses, we partake of the food as
though in a dream.
The fish is very tasty, white in color, light and fluffy in texture
and quite different from any that we have ever eaten. The bread is
more like cake, not sweet but not dull as Earth bread. The greens and
fruit are excellent. The drink that we thought might be wine, really
is not but it takes the place of tea or coffee. It is made from a bean
that grows on a tree and has the quality of replenishing the blood
corpuscles, keeping them up to a standard at all times. It tastes more
like an apple than anything else.
The feasting is finished and quiet fills the room as the head of Venus
rises to his feet to speak. On each side of him are seated the other
two leaders, the one from Saturn and the other from Jupiter. We are
seated opposite to them.
And this is what the speaker is saying:
