"As the children grow in age and understanding, there are other places
of learning where more advanced laws of the universe are worked with.
These will be shown to you later. At the same time, the temples are
never outgrown for worship and study. They are never closed and people
of all ages come to them whenever they desire.
"There are no nations on this planet for the people of Mars are
citizens of Mars. They have no states nor divisions of any kind. The
whole of Mars is just one state and the people of the planet are all
governed from the central government."
"What do you mean 'central government'," asked Dr. Johnston. "What does
it consist of; how is it operated; how does the head of state attain
that position and does he keep it until he dies?"
Our host chuckled at such a number of questions as he answered, "the
choice is made by the people regularly every year. They express
themselves in favor of the one whom they feel they would want in
office."
Here the head of the state spoke up, saying, "I have been chosen now
three different times in succession, which is the greatest honor
bestowed by the people upon anyone at any time."
His words were an explanation, completely devoid of any personal pride
or boastfulness.
Our host continued, "the choosing is not made from a certain caste but
from the people as a whole, for we have no castes nor divisions. At
the same time a council is selected from various sections of the total
planet to assist the chosen leader, as well as to serve the people.
When one is chosen to be the head of the state or of a district, he is
honored as you call it, in being given the right to execute the will of
all the people and above all, the will of the Creator."
"In this way there is never duplication of effort nor wasted energy
through friction. We have harmony and happiness throughout our planet.
And it is the same with the other planets in our system. We are all
unified as one in the service of our Father. Thus we have become so
aware of His laws and alert to conditions throughout space, that should
a hostile condition of any kind try to encroach upon our tranquility,
with the united force of all, it would be repulsed, for we possess
the power through the Divine Providence to reverse the law upon any
intrusion so that the very things projected towards us with an idea of
possession or destruction would react against the projector, instead
of us. If it was a great evil it would devour him."
"We know conditions of hostility and division exist, like they do upon
your Earth: yet we know them not upon our planets. Here we know no evil
nor good but just to live as the Great Father of the Infinite Kingdom
has meant us to live, according to the knowledge we possess, which has
been given to us by our Father who is on high."
