The Joseph Communications: Revelation. Who you are; Why you're here.. Michael G. Reccia
it became apparent that we had collected sufficient material for a book – actually the first of what would become four volumes by Joseph. The material chess game we witnessed play itself out around us in order to give us the means and the time to publish Joseph’s first book is a story that could fill a volume in itself. It is not my intention to go into the complex and often miraculous details of what happened here. I will simply say that heaven, Earth and numerous mountains were moved in order to make available the title you are holding, during which period David, Jane and myself increasingly experienced a unique harmony of purpose between us and formed the Band of Light, a name Joseph suggested we might like to adopt for our group, in order to make more information available to the world through a variety of media.
So, here you have it – Revelation: Who You Are; Why You’re Here, the first book in the Joseph Communications series, in which Joseph speaks of life, death, the universe and, well, yes… everything. Preparing this title for an e-book format (did I mention that times had changed?) plus further hard copy printings also gave us the opportunity to at last include a further chapter – Positive and Negative – that had not appeared in the first imprint but which was very obviously intended by Joseph to be an integral part of Revelation. Positive and Negative had ‘fallen through the net’, as it were, due to the demanding and diverse material commitments we had at the time, almost all of which have now been abandoned to allow us to dedicate as much of our remaining time here as we can to making Joseph’s words available to an ever expanding audience.
Where relevant, the communications are preceded by my notes, which chronicle our progress from those initial sessions between David and myself to my meeting with Jane and the eventual formation of the Band Of Light, and also give a little background information on each session.
The notes are not important, however.
Joseph’s message is.
Much of the material these pages contain may come as a surprise to you on one level, but should also resonate with your soul on another. If you feel as though you recognise the concepts Joseph is putting forward in some way you have to remember that, on a soul level, you already know them. Joseph is simply putting you back in touch with yourself, reminding you of them so that you can bring a new power and understanding into your own life, into the lives of those around you, and into the lives of the billions of souls – men, women and children – around this globe for whom life desperately needs to change for the better…
…Today.

An Introduction by Joseph
I have waited for many years to find a suitable outlet for my thoughts, but you must understand that they are not just my thoughts; they are the thoughts and the beliefs of the many souls who inhabit the sphere, the area of illusion, the projection (for all energy allows the projection of illusions) that I live in. They are the thoughts of many souls, put together for the purposes of wakening the ‘sleepers’.
The book ahead of you is supposed to disturb you. If it disturbs you, this is good. If you put it away then you are not yet ready for its message. This book is designed to inspire you, to trouble you and to make you look at the inner world (which is your real world, rather than the outer world you have bought into) in a different way.
My name is Joseph.
I have lived on your Earth many times. It is also my Earth, of course. I have been in the spirit realms for many, many years – for centuries, for thousands of years. I chose at one point not to come back to the Earth plane. It was difficult because there were many things I enjoyed there. I enjoyed food. I enjoyed grapes. I enjoyed wine. I enjoyed having ladies around me. I enjoyed sunsets. I enjoyed the beautiful vistas I saw from my bedroom window when I was a citizen of Atlantis. But something made me turn my back on the Earth plane…
It was pointed out to me that there were other mountains to climb, other vistas to look at, and I decided to travel onwards rather than return to what I was convinced was an illusion. It was pointed out to me that there were many things wrong with the Earth plane and that souls were returning there for the wrong reasons; that they were not learning; that they had become trapped in a cycle of existence and had made gods of things that weren’t God - things that didn’t matter. They had turned their backs on the true God ...the God that was within them.
Many of Earth’s religions had also done this, so that they were, in effect, praying to themselves and instructing their devotees to pray to the priests and to the holy men. A few on Earth understood that they were part of an illusion and a few rose to great spiritual understanding, but even they chose to come back and not always because they wanted to teach - often it was because they wanted to be adored, and that, too, is a trap. All power comes from the Source, not from the individual. The aggrandisement of the individual draws its energies from the negative side of life and is a channelling of the negative side of life. People who truly work spiritually work in the quiet, work without thought of their own egos and work in order to go on working for the Light when they pass beyond this illusion, not so that they can come back to Earth and repeat the process and have people bow down in front of them.
Our group’s intention with this book is to turn things on their heads and to bring an argument for Light into the darkness.
To demand nothing.
To dictate nothing.
To say: ‘Here is the book. It is your right to read it. It is your right not to read it. It is your right to reject it. It is your right to accept it – in whole or in part. We advise you to read it, we want you to read it and we invite those of you who do so to become workers for Light and truth because of what the book says to you.’
Things must change.
Let that be your motto; let that be your daily outlook on life.
Things must change.
Things cannot continue in your world as they are. You are still killing each other, you are strangling the planet, and you are ignoring your spirituality – your Source. You are ‘dreamers’ and you don’t know it. You are tied into the dream to the extent that you have forgotten your heritage.
You are told in many of your religions that the way to God is through the holy men and the priests. This is nonsense! The way to God is through your own heart. You are a ‘god’ in the making - you are a child of God, which is what Jesus said to you, which is what many of the prophets have said to you, but you have given exclusivity to them; you worship them as saints and they never wanted you to. They said, ‘Here is the way, here is the truth, here is the Light’ ...and, instead of taking on board the message, you worshipped the messenger.
This is not necessary. Worship no one, only Creation. Worship what is within you – the one, true God, the Source of your life and your consciousness, and help to make a difference in this world.
I was not always a spiritual man. I, as much as any other soul, went through lifetimes when I was not aware that I was a soul; lifetimes in which I viewed the universe from the standpoint of individuality and believed it to be so; lifetimes when I thought I was at the whim of a cruel universe; lifetimes when I looked in a mirror and actually believed that what I saw was truly me.
Then, through experience and through promptings (because I was psychic I could hear the voices and could see the faces of people who had gone beyond the illusion) it slowly occurred to me that I was more than this temple of flesh, that I was a spirit, that I was eternal and that I was more than the illusion I was witnessing.
I was also taught that I was creating, that I was adding to that illusion, that I was a god in the making, that I could influence my environment – influence my immediate environment (the environment of my body) and then influence the world around me. I was shown that my view of the world contributed to how that world was; that I wasn’t at the whim of every storm and tempest;
