Today we invite one of 20 slave girls given to Spanish Conqueror Hernán Cortés upon arrival to what became Mexico centuries later. Erik’s hand in this was…..handy!
ST = substitute teacher, Erik and Visitor X
ST: So, Erik, as substitute teacher, I’ve never asked you to go fetch a celebrity and the reason is, I don’t – or at least have not – believed I could get the information the way I do from you or The Committee. It doesn’t come through in that detail.
Erik: Of course you can, dude. I know you can, you don’t try it enough.
ST: OK, so you have to set up this interview; go get him/her/them, you know the drill, and get ‘em to go s…l……o…………w, OK?
Erik: Deal; who are we gonna interview?
ST: I don’t know, Winston Churchill? John F. Kennedy? Somebody nobody’s ever heard of?
Erik: Somebody nobody’s ever heard of, that’s good, my mother hasn’t done that yet.
ST: Who? I can’t just make it up…
Erik: I’ll google somebody….
ST: How can you google somebody and you don’t know who they are? Besides, how’s that work without computers?
Erik: We have lots of cool shit…I know Steve Jobs….see? Just ‘cause you leave Earth doesn’t mean Earth leaves you, plus I’m here….how many times have you read about ideas channeled through somebody? That means somebody here likes ‘em…just ‘cause somethin’s there doesn’t mean it gets tossed, as the British say “in the bin”.
ST: Are we gonna use British spelling now?
Erik: Today only if you pick somebody that used it.
ST: Oh, right you were gonna google somebody…
Erik: You do it.
ST: OK, let me try….I typed in “obscure people” and the results turned up “obscure people who changed history”. Should I click on that link?
Erik: Yeah, pick the third one that comes up under the first link, “5 people you’ve never heard of who saved the world”
ST: Who is it?
Erik: I don’t know – well, I do – it’s somebody obscure, just pick the third one….
ST: OK…..it is….. The Slave Girl Who Helped Conquer The New World, it says her name was La Malinche, later on Dona Marina. I won’t read anything else, I’ll contaminate you. And me.
Erik: Let me go get her……
ST: [Fingers tapping on desk….humming…..looking out window…..nice day today…….]
Erik: OK.
ST: What’s she look like?
Erik: I’ll text you a picture, hold on….
ST: You have, what, an iPhone?
Erik: I know Steve Jobs, dude!
ST: Do people really have that stuff off of Earth in your spirit form? Really?
Erik: Yes, abso –fuckin’–lutely. When you don’t need it anymore, poof! Gone, just like recycling.
ST: Or throwing a candy wrapper out the window, which is litter.
Erik: Yeah, but here litter disappears.
ST: OK, La Malinche or Dona Marina, which name do you prefer? The first one, in Spanish, sounds a little, let me be diplomatic, “demeaning” like malignant? Which do you prefer?
Visitor X: You can stick with Visitor X, names don’t mean much in a spirit existence. I know many guests here have always been referred to by names. For celebrities, this is good to help connect Earth significance of events to what is said; not for me.
ST: Erik, you thought that name up, didn’t you?
Erik: I suggested it; she liked it.
ST: Lovely, just great <heavy sarcasm> Visitor X, Brand X, what’s next, Prime Minister X?
Erik: Don’t push it, buddy, we could make him Secretary General X of the United Nations.
ST: OK, Visitor X, I will refer to you as Dona Marina if you please, I had a very good secretary by that name many years ago.
Dona Marina: Erik has milked his joke enough, he is smiling with arms folded.
ST: Dona Marina, I have often noticed names that match a purpose, characteristic, quality, act or event that involves a person; New York City swindler Bernard Madoff, who “made off” with mucho money that was not his, wealthy US tax fugitive Marc Rich, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill defending the “church on a hill” as a symbol for the United Kingdom, and so on. There are many of these odd name coincidences. In your situation, Hernán Cortés’ name translates as “Herman Cuts”, “cuts” a noun, not a verb. Is this just a coincidence in his case?
Dona Marina: These coincidences of names are intentional and always chosen by a soul before incarnation. In my case, the name Marina, a Spanish word adopted into English, a safe haven for boats, the name I chose, this I represented for Cortés. His name purpose was to cut off the civilization he encountered.
ST: The invading Spanish force was outnumbered so badly it’s amazing to think how they prevailed.
Dona Marina: This was predestined, of course. The fall of the civilization was planned.
ST: What was your role?
Dona Marina: To supply information to Cortés’ men and help bring this about.
ST: Erik’s doing a great job for me.
Dona Marina: Yes and you also and I thank you, as I have not been asked to discuss this lifetime from a human perspective.
ST: Did you know about this website before Erik looked you up?
Dona Marina: No, and I have seen it is quite popular and it is a key portal into the new age of Earth, a great service it provides.
ST: Have you lived other lifetimes on Earth since the 16th century in what became Mexico?
Dona Marina: Yes, several unrelated to it.
ST: What lesson or challenge were you there to learn and/or overcome?
Dona Marina: None other than cross paths with the Spaniards. I was young as were the other girls handed over to Cortés, who was not even middle aged himself by current standards.
ST: Were you well treated?
Dona Marina: Yes, quite well.
ST: Why did you become a key person among the group given over to the Spaniards?
Dona Marina: In that moment I would have believed the reasons most humans might identify, attraction, personality and ease of relationship, as with all friendships. I can see from this perspective these attributes, these characteristics were decided as the plan for that lifetime.
ST: So was the life of Cortés and his several hundred Spaniards also pre-destined?
Dona Marina: Yes, in the same way it is for most humans.
ST: What was the purpose of the ending of the Aztec Empire?
Dona Marina: The sacrificial aspect of worship had become barbaric, as much so as conflict and war with competing civilizations in this region. This was a sharp turn away from the history of Atlanteans that took refuge and founded the civilization. The sacrifice practice was known to be implemented but the extent and methods became counterproductive and cruel.
ST: The notion that our lives are controlled from somewhere else seems threatening.
Dona Marina: Your lives are controlled by you, always. You just do not remember, often this is intended and agreed by you. The decision to curtail live sacrifices was made by the people later involved. The observation of outside forces doing this against free will, to intentionally interfere where not welcome, this is not what happened.
ST: Was Cortés a strange man to be around?
Dona Marina: The combination of his beard, skin tone and body hair was very strange until I became accustomed. He had great authority over his group, just as did leaders of the Aztecs I was part of. He was sometimes very gruff, sometimes gentle, always kind to me.
ST: What lessons did you learn that were not planned? What things did you discover?
Dona Marina: I was terribly afraid, scared for my life as were all the girls given to the Spaniards. I learned fear and outcome often do not match up. The serious things in human life mostly come unannounced with little chance to worry or be afraid. The lesson for fear is look inside yourself at what the fear means, what is the thing inside you to be hurt.
ST: Erik, I am getting this all down correctly?
Erik: So far so good and no, it won’t rain there today.
ST: How did you know I was thinking about….
Erik: [Grinning smugly]…
ST: Dona Marina, one final question, what would you like to tell humanity through at least the readers of this website? What could you say that might not have been heard? Not a general statement, something specific that also applies around the globe?
Dona Marina: This is a large question, so allow me a moment to consider.
None of you know with precision what happens on Earth as your essence shifts higher and closer to your home, where is your permanent place. Do not focus on events; I do not mean to say these should not be thought of; they should. Think also and rather of your reaction; response. Think what will you do and what will you feel; unhappy solves what? Screaming fixes which problem? Some of you might do these things or have done them, personal events or global disasters cause effect. Death in a family does not stop your life. Your rise to higher dimensions offers that changes you can look beyond; be unhappy for a human moment. Then look beyond because soon all of you will see far past today’s horizons, this is why you have come. Look briefly at your origins, look down at where you are. Then look up. Do you see what beckons you? Keep looking, you shall see it. Smile and then go. We wait for you with open arms.
ST: Dona Marina, we thank you. Erik, you done real good, bro.
Erik: Over and out.
