Cause and effect, that troublesome, immutable law, simply and unfailingly presents us with that which we have created
There is, and certainly will be, no shortage of comments on, and much pain resulting from, the terrible and tragic killings of the policemen in Dallas, and those of two black men, which seem to be the pivotal incidents used to justify the unjustifiable police killings.
There will also be thoughts about, and perhaps research into, the parties behind the scenes who promote, manipulate – and perhaps infiltrate and instigate – in order to benefit, from the divisiveness and polarization that is further perpetuated. Speculation about the details in all of these events should be expected, such as may be provoked by the change between the original report from Dallas of perhaps two snipers “triangulating” the shooting, and the new assessment that there was only one sniper…who is already known to have been trained by the US military, presumably to kill other people.
Whatever the facts turn out to be in these particular incidents, it’s indisputable that racism is institutionalized in America, as has long been known and also commented on by Billy Meier.
(And hopefully not completely lost in the mix will be concern that an irresponsible, power-hungry criminal was given a pass by the FBI…which has been overshadowed by the recent shootings).
We have been repeatedly warned about what is coming to America – should the warnings continue to be ignored – and I’ll reprise these previous comments:
*“Unlike the people who derive their sense of reality from the dead-end machinations and illusions of politics and religion, those who understand the unfailingly immutable law of cause and effect also understand that there’s no magic involved, no accidental, random, unforeseen events taking place. There’s only the dependably ceaseless fulfillment of the law. And it’s the same in our micro and macro, individual and collective lives.”
**”It can seem beyond daunting to even try to make a difference. But those of us who’ve been studying the Meier material, especially everything connected to understanding and applying the Might of the Thoughts also know that it requires now a long, painstaking process of controlling our thoughts, of neutral-positive thinking and complete self-responsibility.”
***“So, for those who understand how the immutable, impersonal, universal laws of cause and effect operate there is still much sadness, though not much surprise. Just as the inevitable collapsing of lands and structures is now underway, so is the collapse of all of that which is false and unsupportable in human consciousness and that can no longer be sustained.
Turning one’s attention to the teaching of the spirit, of truth and of life will bear better fruits, such as living a life of peace, love, freedom and harmony, completely devoid of beliefs and delusions.”
Cause and effect, that troublesome, immutable law, doesn’t “justify” violence, revenge, retribution, etc., it simply and unfailingly presents us with that which we have created, consciously or unconsciously, deliberately or accidentally. Learning how to think so as to create a world of peace, love, freedom and harmony should be our first priority.

“Nevertheless the racial hatred in the USA spreads further through white USA citizens and continuously and increasingly promotes the Gewalt against the Afro-Americans and all others, who do not fit into the white racial schema of the race haters. This US American racial hatred, and the quite cowardly anxiety about the Afro-Americans, and above all, about other human beings of diverse countries and religions and so forth, corresponds to a pathological, malicious, paranoid-psychopathic personality disorder, which spreads across the entire nation of USA and by which a large part of the US population is befallen. All of the related cowardly anxiety, the racial hatred and the persecution delusion which is integrated into that, as you once said is, on one hand, probably based effectively in a genetically inherited ‘memory’ from the time when the US American world was confronted with the slavery and the therewith connected horror and murders of the slaves, which were committed by the Ku-Klux-Klan and other race haters. On the other hand, as you have also explained, the cowardly anxiety and the persecution delusion has been based, since time immemorial, in a genetic ‘memory’ in regard to the source and the cause of the origin of the white first population of the current US America. Indeed the fact is that the majority of the current US citizens are distant descendants of the early white American immigrants who ‘immigrated’ to the Promised Land of that time only because they had to flee from Europe because they were hated, persecuted and had their lives threatened as a consequence of their diverse religious sectarianism or their criminal lives. That created in them a hatred against all who were not like them which, in expanded form, expressed itself as a peculiar ‘racial hatred’, indeed in regard to all those who had not fallen into a sectism, to which not only the simple citizens belonged, rather also the officials and governors. The entire thing is therefore based on a fact which genetically established itself in the sect-believing refugees and over many generations has been preserved deep in the DNA until today, consequently a great part of the US population is the worst worldwide in regard to the cowardly anxiety of being a victim of a black or other non-white human being.”
What an immense problem! How can that change Michael?
These are questions each person must ponder and contribute the answers derived from their thinking through their own actions.
With all due respect, if that’s all that can be done, then the Henoch Prophecies are very likely to happen. People are hating and killing each other all over the world. There doesn’t seem to be a solution. If the Ets and Billy can’t stop it there’s no hope. If all we have to choose from is Trump and Clinton, damn, there’s no hope.
Perhaps, ultimately, a separation of the people would need to occur to quench these problems. With Blacks and Whites occupying different parts of the country. Blacks and Whites who can peacefully live together occupying another part and other groups (such as christian fundamentalists) occupying other parts, which are then left to get on with their own desired way of living. Over time the feelings of hate and racism would dissipate as the cause would no longer be present. Of course this would first require the break-up of the USA. If the prophecied countries of the East did go to war with USA and destroyed it, those that were left would have very different things to occupy themselves with. Racism would be a distant memory. For those survivors a ‘seeking of each other’ and desire for togetherness would naturally come about.
We have many young men who are sent out to fight meaningless wars. Our government invests heavily to make them efficient warriors only to come home broken and forgotten warriors by our government. Medical and mental attention caught up in bureaucracy. This is the start of the civil war. Young warriors fighting the same government that trained them and see the injustices committed to the civilians and themselves. Sit back and watch.
Consider that most who sign up with the forces are doing it simply to get a free education. Take away the free education. I personally find that most who sign up were a little “off” in the first place. Mostly young men who just love to blow sh1t up. Or their daddy was in the forces. My dad was a WW2 vet and none of us kids had any desire to follow in his footsteps. Although I would not be opposed to signing up for the Worldwide Peacekeeping Troop as I know for sure this would be the best for all humanity.
Well Jaime we are waiting for that prelude group ‘ex servicemen’s live matters’ before they start to put their foot down.
The entire US populace would benefit greatly by reading and inwardly digesting Might of the Thoughts.
If only there were a copy in each home, and each person had the mindset and patience to read and understand it. As ever, help is available, but will Americans avail themselves of it. As more people show an interest in ordering or buying it, the more it could be published.
Imo if they did, it would go straight over their head and not change them at all.
Ian whaddaya talking about they’ll get a nice haircut and something to remember it by.
Chris… now THAT would be a good use of our taxes… buying a copy of that book for all who do not understand the Teaching of Truth, the Teaching of Spirit and the Teaching of Life… buy it here: http://www.theyfly.com/might/might.html IN STOCK… and I shouted because after all those folks left the core group 49 and Billy is getting up there in age… I can see a time when they are NOT available! Good article Michael and nice back up Chris Lock! You do understand it is the media and the “arts” which keep the folks off the true path The Might of Thoughts might lead those intelligent enough to read and comprehend and use said book! For example folks need to be “entertained” so much and it is usually the gratuitous sex and violence of the minds of psychopaths who do not know what they do… that are most enjoyed by those idle minds with nothing to think about. You DON’T know who you are but that will be the cause of the soon coming effect!
Salome: Be greeted in Peace and Wisdom.
Great idea Chris but how are we going to pay for The Might of Though let alone read in German?
Hi Terry, The Might of Thoughts is in German and English, side by side. I find no matter how little money one has, we can always find a way to get what we want. If you want it bad enough Terry, you will find a way.
Hey Terry the Chinese said a thousand mile journey starts with one step in the FIGU arena a thousand FIGU books starts with one book.
Meaning work for it buy one book at a time, read it and then give it to someone this is what I did.
This could very well be a part of the problem:
US local, state govts spend 3 times more on jails than on education – officials

I personally would like to commandeer the world wide spying and entertainment apparatus and play to the world, Goblet of The Truth, in German, 24/7.

……………………………
Hasn’t Meier stated that blacks are spiritual younger than other races? This makes sense in regards to the testing that they are on average 20 IQ points below whites. So shouldn’t this be taken into account in regards to them holding leadership positions? Granted you can have white spirit forms reincarnating into black bodies due to race mixing, but in essence, the Plejarens seem to have always taught that the older spirit forms should be in positions of authority, that this is best for the society as a whole. So just saying “end racism” isn’t quite the whole story, and it leaves out fundamental truths in regards to the current race situation in the U.S. and all over the planet. According to the facts, blacks shouldn’t be in positions of authority in the U.S. It would be illogical to promote such, again, with them being younger spirit forms.
Martin
…………………………………………………………….
It’s interesting that not only did “Martin” provide wrong information, indicating his failed understanding and ignorant attempt to spread more divisive, racially prejudiced views, but also that when I emailed him asking him to provide his full name when submitting comments – the email came back because it was phony.
Cowardice goes hand-in-hand with racism.
So to answer his first question: No, Meier never said any such thing. “Martin” apparently isn’t aware that there already were black space traveling races 387,000 years ago (see Asasel: http://www.futureofmankind.co.uk/Billy_Meier/Event_Timeline).
In trying to assert some kind of superiority, he instead reveals his own inferiority of consciousness and evolution. Perhaps “Martin” comes from one of the more backward areas of the US and suffers from a fundamentalist religious outlook, etc. And/or maybe he was just trying to show us that Meier’s assessment of the deep, ingrained (and possibly inbred) racial prejudices and pathological paranoia is accurate.
While all that Meier has said in Contact 625 certainly pertains, let’s again be reminded of a couple of sentences:
“Nevertheless the racial hatred in the USA spreads further through white USA citizens and continuously and increasingly promotes the Gewalt against the Afro-Americans and all others, who do not fit into the white racial schema of the race haters.”
“The entire thing is therefore based on a fact which genetically established itself in the sect-believing refugees and over many generations has been preserved deep in the DNA until today, consequently a great part of the US population is the worst worldwide in regard to the cowardly anxiety of being a victim of a black or other non-white human being.”
It appears that “Martin” has given us classic, text book examples of exactly what Meier DID mean.

Troble is Andrew 1. not everybody can speak German or even understand German. 2.How are we going to teach this world how to speak and read German before we can even read and understand The Goblet of Truth if we want to get the message that Billy`s trying to get and teach ushere on planet Earth?
The USA has much “effect” coming back on it due to the law of cause and effect. Think of the murder of millions of native people, the theft of their land and wealth, the 350 years of black slavery, rape, and murder, and the dropping of nuclear weapons on Japanese civilians killing 250,000 in two attacks. It all has to come back. The pendulum swings out and then comes back. Racism, materialism, emotionalism, warmongering, etc. will be wiped out.
Good news Terry:
It must also be considered that interwoven into all of Billy’s German Spiritual-Teaching texts is an evolution-CODE.
This code is fully effective only when every word of the text is in its correct place, and written free of errors from beginning to end.
The code releases impulses from the storage-banks which reach the reader and begin to work evolutively in him or her.
This process is unconscious and has nothing to do with a coercion or manipulation, rather only with the knowledge that is retained in the storage-banks for all times and which, when released through corresponding impulses, begins to penetrate very slowly into the consciousness.
The same result is obtained when someone reads the German text, even though that person may not master the German language.
It makes no difference whether the text is spoken silently or aloud, or whether one person is simply reading.

So what you do is:
Download a PDF of the German text. Eg. au figu org kelch
Download a text to speech program (computer) or app (android/apple).
Download a German voice for the text to speech program or app.
You might have to convert the PDF into another type of file.
Load the right file into the program or app.
And enjoy.

I use Cool Reader and Ivona on my android, and they have websites too for using them on computers.

IF YOU SO CHOOSE TO DO IT, THEN IT’S OK. GOOD LUCK.
Please read it again: “…has nothing to do with a coercion or manipulation, etc.”
G’Day John,
It’s an evolution-CODE.
NOT
a devolution-code or anything evil.
Evolution is development of powers, force, abilities and skills that don’t exist yet, and developing powers, force, abilities and skills that are already present, in either conscious-active or subconscious-passive slumbering form.
Head over to futureofmankind co uk and type in evolution in the search function (top right). And search for code in the search function.
LOL.
I took my own advice, for a change ;), and now know why there are some people out there that are adamant that BEAM has said that we have or should have a third DNA strand.
I quote from Contact Report 251:
“a third DNA information code will be discovered in the human body”
Now I am by no means a biologist (case in point, I failed to get a high enough score in the required tests at the end of high school to get into Architecture at University, because I couldn’t answer the questions about DNA sequencing on the tests because I didn’t do science in the later years, despite getting 97% in the lower years, there is more to that story, but I digress) why do people think there needs to be another strand of DNA to have another unknown as yet code?
Could the stupid ramblings of a profit driven entertainer be the answer? Or could the answer be the intentional uneducation and misdirection of the masses?
I don’t know that strand and code are identical (how many human genetic codes are there?) though “third” may imply it.
I don’t know either.
I think that strand and code aren’t identical.
If it says a third will be found, I think there are two preceding codes.
What they are is unknown to me, see above ;-> I haven’t yet delved into the inta-ma-net to avail myself of the knowledge.
The rest of the sentence above is as follows:
“and the first concrete steps will be undertaken to eliminate diseases in the elderly, heart diseases and attrition.”
Apparently there is a base Nucleotide Code (A-C-G-T) and then an Amino Acid Code (designated by three of the nucleotides to make up one amino acid). The Nucleotides make up the Amino Acids that then make up the proteins of our body.
Now going back to the above second half of that sentence in CR 251, and taking into account our Universe of opposite poles, I think we are yet to figure out how the same constructing blocks of proteins can act in the opposite way, meaning they can de-construct things, too.
Where’s Billy Wilson when you need him? ;->
Hi John, my understanding is that you are receiving impulses from your own previous personalities. Think about it like you are being informed by all the people you were before this life. Think about it like you are time travelling to the future and there’s some really important information you need to tell your future self. Would you be manipulating your future self by telling them something you really think they need to know?
Yes, but that might be choice.
In the pdt version of the GoT though, there seems to be some typos – like ‘teh’ instead of ‘the’ and a ‘ ( ‘ without ending on a ‘ ) ‘ at the end of a sentence. So the textbook version of the GoT is better. Also, if you weren’t in those past lives to recieive any spiritual teaching from the said prophets, I think, the evolution code searches the Akashic records for you. What I don’t understand is, if say in my next life, I happen to stare at a candle for 15 minutes, would I know that I am doing the concentration exercises? Just putting it out there.
G’Day Eusebio,
You want to listen to the German version of GoTT.
I can’t post links to web pages for some reason unbeknowings to me.
There is more to the
–futureofmankind–>Important_Information_Regarding_Translations
which is as follows:
“It is not possible for BEAM to work the code into any language other than the German language because no other language is suitable for incorporating the Code.”
Thanks anyway Andrew, I tried YouTube and only found the audio in English version – the computer voice is a little off-putting though.
Michael Horn, on the subject of getting to learn the German language, what about providing audiobooks of the contact reports. It would be nice to hear some voice-actors that can sound close to our Plejaren friends. It can make the messages on the CRs more personal.
Well as a black person living in the U.S this has been know for a long time among the black community.. Billy’s contact report 625 was right on point … I will quote: ” Indeed the fact is that the majority of the current US citizens are distant descendants of the early white American immigrants who ‘immigrated’ to the Promised Land of that time only because they had to flee from Europe because they were hated, persecuted and had their lives threatened as a consequence of their diverse religious sectarianism or their criminal lives. That created in them a hatred against all who were not like them which, in expanded form, expressed itself as a peculiar ‘racial hatred’, indeed in regard to all those who had not fallen into a sectism, to which not only the simple citizens belonged, rather also the officials and governors. The entire thing is therefore based on a fact which genetically established itself in the sect-believing refugees and over many generations has been preserved deep in the DNA until today, consequently a great part of the US population is the worst worldwide in regard to the cowardly anxiety of being a victim of a black or other non-white human being.”
Billy being on point as the prophet on the new age is right on point, as the hatred we are dealing with is not social, but a genetic hatred against the blacks deeply encoded in their DNA, let me also at that this is also a fulfillment of bible prophecy especially in regards to the book of Deutronomy, and others, Edom would and everlasting hatred for the children of Israel.
I think it’s both genetic and social.
Too bad they don’t see what the other countries/races do. When I see the USA, I see a potential of a country for great progress. Because in the last century alone Blacks have achieved so much. In entertainment there is Denzel Washington, Halle Berry and Morgan Freeman; in athletics there is Muhammad Ali, Jesse Owens and Michael Jordan; in music there is Michael Jackson, Miles Davis and Charlie Parker; in physics there is Neil DeGrasse Tyson; activist Martin Luther King Jr. ; military Colin Powell; and politics Barack Obama. So when I see such successes, it makes me (and others I would assume) also strive for success.
As a slow bilingual reader, I can tell you that utilizing the available translations such as “Goblet” are the best way to try and teach yourself German, by reading the English verse first, then reading the corresponding German verse that accompanies it, as a way to build vocabulary. This can also be done by using the ideas Andrew Grimshaw posted about listening to the book, and the “Goblet of the Truth” is a great source of the Geisteslehre to study, because of the information it possesses on not only basing your planetary society on the creational laws and recommendations, but also the information it possesses that one can use in their personal life to correctly utilize the law of cause and effect, to build virtues and high-values that stem from the Creation, which the Creation is a dual (balance) as it is 100% negative energy, and 100% positive energy, just exactly like how a person should be in their consciousness when they are neutral-positive in thoughts, feelings, and deeds.
John Jacobson: as for racism in America, as a fellow American, I can tell you that it is deep seeded, for negative reasons, but this seems to dissipate somewhat among the younger generation, perhaps this is a glimpse into the future for the positive if our country can survive the pendulum swings of cause and effect. It must be difficult to be a black man/woman in America today, to be constantly judged over something so stupid as skin color, which it should not be this way in 2016. I am sorry for this terrible and false wrong, but at least you know that not everyone out there is racist.
You’re right, not everyone is, but too many are, so many that I think the ETs are correct, there will be a race war in the US. I have been stopped and harassed by the police many times, and I don’t look ghetto. The last time I was pushed around and hand cuffed because the cops were looking for drugs or a weapon in my car. When they found nothing they looked angry and they said loudly “go”. Very inhuman ignorant way of acting.
“but this seems to dissipate somewhat among the younger generation”
Very true, but people can often be made to feel that they need to take sides if a society is put under pressure. It doesn’t take much to trigger hatred towards a particular group of people as a whole. One overheard stupid comment can divide a society.
I can very well imagine it happening with moderate muslims across the world if the Islamic extremists attempted to take control. Apart from fearing them, they would perhaps feel a need to side with what would essentially be their Islamic brothers, rather than siding with other faiths, non-believers etc. Perhaps it is a deep down feeling of kinship that drives this.
You are right Corey. I know for a fact I’m not racist. And seeing my 8yr old going to school saying hi and playing with all races is absolutely beautiful. The honesty at that age…is what we all need to get back to. He only cares about who wants to play… Not who’s white red or green. But I’m sure if I had any racist views I’m sure it would have rubbed off on him by now. So I can see how racism could get passed down by their parents. But I also believe in choices. At whatever age a person makes a choice on all things. Sure you have influences but in the end it’s on the person to determine the type of man or woman they’ll be. I came from a family of beliefs and yet here I am letting go of all beliefs and living for the truth. Something my parents have not done. I made a choice. And what a choice it was!!
Cause and effect , reaping and sowing, you grow what you plant, the world is planting the seeds of violence, revenge, and hatred. One man’s actions should not move you to act out on something that didn’t happen to you. Our world has many people angry at other people all because one man wronged another man. I didn’t know one citizen spoke for an entire race ? The irony, when its for the good of the human being they rail against it, when its for the detriment of the human being they March right along with no questions, no debunking, no pause, no rational thought. I say it all the time, our world is upside down, and backwards.
When a white police officer shoots and kills a black man with no due cause, that affects me as a black man, it hits me deeply. I think I might be next. It must be stopped. It’s racist killing and evil. It must be stopped one way or another. America should be a free country for ALL Americans.
Andrew Grimshaw: g4 DNA is the current line of research thanks to the new microscopes, quantum computers power and the use of terrahertz equipment with DNA they are moving ahead very fast, but as long as they can make 1 to 2 million dollars doing gene therapy for cancer per person it may take a long time before any good will come from DNA coding.

In 2015 at least 306 black people were killed by police. Race is a trigger for police brutality. Much of this is based on the history of policing in America and the fact that modern-day policing, at least in the South, grew out of slave patrols.
Alton Sterling and Philando Castile didn’t deserve to die.
Sterling was a black man who lived in an America that consistently devalues, disrespects and destroys black lives. Now is not the time to stay silent about these injustices. Black men and women have raised their voices to declare that black lives matter and to say the names of those who have died unjustly. The law of cause and effect will deal with the racists.
There are interesting rebuttals as to the proven innocence of the two men at this link:
…BUT, while the truth still may not be known, there’s no doubt that the institutionalized racism in America is a long and deeply ingrained condition. And it’s pretty clear that black people have been shot in what appears to be disproportionate numbers.
While it’s possible in these two cases that the truth may be other than what seems apparent, this isn’t a case of Asian, Latin, Norwegian men, etc., being shot and that triggering massive protests. That of course is because the injustices have gone on for so long.
One problem however is that various candidates and protest movements, etc., are funded and promoted by people like George Soros, who may not just be a civil rights promoting philanthropist. But this is just part of the overall, complex picture.
People look at the videos, it’s clear that murder was committed. Anyone can say anything, videos don’t lie. I think you are looking at the start of a race war. Black people aren’t stupid, they know murder when they see it. I certainly do.
The biggest problem I see is that the police are never held to account when they murder someone. Almost always the investigation leads to no charges laid. There is a two tier justice system that needs to be addressed along with the genetically inherited racism. I remember asking a policy maker why the police are not following the rules. I was told the police can do whatever they want…and that is the problem. It only takes a bad apple or two but no one is willing fire them, they are just transferred like pedophile priests.
This isn’t going to help the credibility of the woman in the video:
It’s all a mess.
MH, what is the overall, complex picture?
G’Day John,
I came across this article on Prison Planet from an African-American police officer from Florida:
Riveting Post By Black Police Officer Confronts BLM With Raw Honesty And EVERY American Needs To See It
One line out of it is:
Fact: As of July 2016, the breakdown of the number of US Citizens killed by Police this year is, 238 White people killed, 123 Black people killed, 79 Hispanics, 69 other/or unknown race.
He posted it on his facebook page, if you’re that way inclined, so you can go to the source, links from the article at Prison Planet.
What’s your point?
My point is pointing out your first point above and that there are other statistics that you didn’t address in your point.
Jay Stalien, the author of the facebook post, the African-American police officer in your country is rational enough to know that there is more than one side to a situation and asked questions and applied reason and logic and found the neutral position and put fingers to keyboard to try to get a positive out of the situation and equalize the sides involved by trying to get all who might be only thinking about revenge, retaliation and retribution to think differently and halt the bloodshed.
This is a possible possibility if enough people drag their thoughts out of that dark abyss long enough to shed some light on the subject and think about the consequences of their thoughts.
I think you’ll find that there is a lot of fear in your country stemming from outright untruths, imaginary boogeymen and enemies and just good old imaginations in general, that needs to be shown the light of truth.
I get it that you are angry at the minute, make sure that anger is justified and directed at the right target and don’t allow yourself to be just as bad as them.
Take the higher, less traveled, path.
Peace.
In my opinion you don’t know what you’re talking about. White police officers are killing unarmed and innocent black men because of racism. period!
Obama got on tv today and starting quoting the Bible with regards to the Dallas cop killings. Even though I’m black, I can’t stand him. He sounds like a black preacher on Sundays. I know religions and the Bible, and I hate them. He’s a big fool.
Let me tell all of you what the worst thing is related to the Dallas cop killings. Many white cops across the country will secretly seek revenge and shoot more innocent black men. They might wait a few weeks, but they will retaliate. A friend of mine is a black cop, he told me that. Against my hopes and wishes, this racism in America will continue.
These are, and will be, difficult times. There’s no arguing with that.
But why don’t we work to express thinking that won’t perpetuate the victimization…so that we don’t surrender our happiness, inner freedom and resourcefulness?
To be clear, we’re not pretending these things don’t and won’t occur but we should choose to not be feeding them with anticipation, fear, frustration, etc. – losing our own precious energy and peace of mind – WHEN THEY HAVEN’T HAPPENED YET!
There is that old, albeit religion-originated, saying, “What you fear will come upon you.” It’s a truism…as we should notice if we’re already suffering what HASN’T happened yet. This is how we actually not only surrender but…inflict upon ourselves the very things we DON’T want to happen.
This isn’t said to criticize people who’ve had every “reason” to be apprehensive about what may come. It IS to help us retrain our thinking. And this actually can make us better able to respond – to be self-responsible – to all situations, the good and not so good.
Again, this is a self-discipline that makes us more inwardly free and resourceful, which also can make us more useful to ourselves and others, rather than in any way paralyzed by fear, dread, despair, etc.
