After being inspired by the famous entities of Ramtha and Mafu during a significant event, Arthur believed he should learn to channel. He was unsuccessful until one night as he lay in bed the same light came over him and told him that he was Jehovah. After that time, Arthur started channeling Jehovah. The channeled sessions with Jehovah grew, and many individuals were greatly served over the years.

Ray Brown, the original discoverer of the Atlantean Sphere, became acquainted with Arthur when he attended the channeled sessions for some time. When Ray Brown died, he willed the sphere to his friend, Don Jones. However, Don, being a spiritual channel himself, received Divine Guidance that the sphere belonged to Jehovah and that "Jehovah wants it back." so he gave it to Arthur.

The Atlantean Sphere itself has quite a history. Ray Brown discovered the sphere during a scuba diving trip to the Bari Islands in the Bahamas in 1970. While diving, Ray Brown became separated from his friends and while he searched for them, he came upon a strange pyramid structure.

Though startled by the find, he investigated and was amazed that the sides of the pyramid were completely smooth and the joints between the individual blocks to be nearly imperceptible. Upon entering the pyramid, Ray was further astounded by the clean, smooth sides of the interior. No algae or coral grew on the walls. Not only that, but he was able to see the interior clearly as the room was well lit but there was no detectable source of light. He tried to remove a multi-faceted red gemstone attached to a metallic rod that descended from the center of the ceiling, but was unable to dislodge it.

About four feet below the point of the red gemstone, stood a bronze metal sculpture of two open hands, and resting upon the palms of the hands was a crystal sphere, about four inches in diameter. He was surprised that he could lift the crystal sphere easily. And so he seized his prize and headed toward the exit. As he did so, he felt an invisible presence come near and a voice that warned him never to return. Concerned that his prize might be taken away from him by the government as salvage treasure, Ray kept the unusual sphere - and his story - hidden until 1975. At that point the sphere was displayed for the first time in Phoenix, Arizona at a psychic fair.

Inside the sphere are the images of three pyramids, one in front of the other. At another angle, some have claimed to see a faint image of a large single eye serenely gazing out at them. Thousands of tiny fracture lines also appear and may be electrical in nature, like some form of microscopic circuitry.

The use of the crystal sphere in ancient times is not clear, only speculative at this point. Some say that the crystal sphere was used in conjunction with other powerful faceted stones (perhaps the red stone Ray Brown saw in the underwater Pyramid?) to draw in and concentrate enormous energy from the earth, then generate and project the resulting tremendous power. For good or for ill purposes, no one can say.

Ray Brown's Atlantean crystal sphere has only made a few public appearances since 1975. It was at the 9-9-9 Crystal Skulls World Mysteries Conference in Arizona and the 10-10-10 Legend of the 13 Skulls Conference in New York. Interestingly, whenever the sphere has been displayed, mysterious occurrences have often been reported: phantom lights; feeling a breath of wind; hot and cold sensations; tingling of energy; hearing voices. Some have claimed to experience healing from the sphere. At times, compasses have been affected when placed next to the crystal while some metals seemed to have become temporarily magnetic.

Arthur says that the sphere is also known as "the eye of God" and sees only the truth of our nature. Thereby, one of its important purposes is to empower each of us as we truly are and bestow peace, protection and joy. Arthur also cautions that whatever intention you bring to the sphere, that it will be the thing that is amplified and manifested. As the sphere is here to help usher in the new consciousness, it is imperative that we are clear about strengthening our connection to the Divine as the sphere will see to it that we have the experiences to achieve just that.

With an emphasis that the power of the sphere is to awaken one's true self and align us with our inner beauty, "communication" with the sphere adds that there were four identical spheres created: two were destroyed in Atlantean times as they were used for evil purposes; the third still remains hidden in a submerged temple; the fourth is in possession of Arthur Fanning.

Currently, the Atlantean crystal sphere resides in Sedona, Arizona. Its power is being utilized in conjunction with crystal bowls and ancient sacred mantras.
