In a broad-ranging interview with JZ Knight, MSNBC’s Cosmic Log reporter Alan Boyle writes:
“It’s been six years since “What the Bleep Do We Know!?” blended the woo-woo world of spiritual self-actualization with the woo-woo world of quantum physics — with a channeled 35,000-year-old spirit named Ramtha playing a prominent role in the documentary.
Today, JZ Knight, the 64-year-old woman who channels that 35,000-year-old spirit, is looking back at the “Bleep” and giving a lot of thought to what lies ahead.”

Ms. Knight has released the following statement expressing her sorrow and that of her students.
Statement from JZ Knight
“We are deeply pained to learn of the tragic death of Vanda Boone and saddened that a murder occurred in our tranquil rural community–a rarity in the Yelm-Rainier-Tenino areas. We support Thurston County detectives to use the best in modern forensic science to convict her killer.
In the absence of next of kin or relatives, Ramtha’s School of Enlightenment will take care of funeral arrangements. Vanda recently moved to the area to be close to the School she loved and the friends she met here. We are disheartened at the loss of any one of our students, but to lose them to homicide is shocking.
We share grief with Vanda’s fellow students, her friends, clients and neighbors. This unfortunate and horrific crime affects us all and many lives will be affected because of Vanda’s passing. We hope this crime will be solved and justice will prevail quickly.”
JZ Knight filed a petition Monday, July 19, 2010 seeking Washington Supreme Court review of a Court of Appeal’s decision issued on April 13, 2010. Knight filed a land use appeal in Thurston County Superior Court in March of 2008, challenging the City of Yelm’s approval of five preliminary plats totaling 568 new residences.
Knight’s appeal claimed that the City failed to show adequate water availability for the 568 new lots as required by state law and Yelm City Code and presented evidence that the City was exceeding its water rights. Judge Chris Wickham ruled in Knight’s favor, reversed the City’s approval of the five plats, and remanded the plats to the City for further processing under a corrected condition of approval. He based his ruling on a determination that the City’s previous approval of the five plats was based on “an erroneous interpretation of the law” regarding water availability.
The City and one of the developers appealed Judge Wickham’s Superior Court decision to the Court of Appeals, which ruled on April 13, 2010, that Knight did not have legal standing to pursue the land use appeal. The Court of Appeals also awarded attorney fees against Knight for the costs of the City’s and developer’s appeal to the Court of Appeals.
Knight’s petition for review asks Washington Supreme Court to reverse the Court of Appeals decision – on both the legal standing and award of attorney fees issues. Knight’s petition asserts that the award of attorney fees is contrary to a state law that prohibits an award of fees against a party such as Knight who prevailed on all issues litigated in superior court and did not file an appeal to the Court of Appeals.
Knight’s petition states that the Court of Appeals decision is contrary to well-established Washington law. Knight contends that the Court of Appeals decision must be reversed because it undermines important requirements regarding available water supplies that state law requires cities and developers to address prior to approval of development projects.
JZ Knight appealed the City of Yelm’s decision granting preliminary plat approval to five subdivisions totaling 568 residential units because of the City’s failure to show adequate water availability as required under state law and City code.
Thurston County Superior Judge Wickham issued a final judgment prohibiting the City from delaying proof of water availability for these five plats until the time of building permit/water connection approvals for individual lots within the plats.
The City appealed that decision to the Appeals Court.
“JZ Knight has not been ordered to pay $195,000 in attorney fees and costs, as reported in the Nisqually Valley News. No court order setting the amount of a fee award has been issued. The Court of Appeals decision on the land use appeal allowed the City and Tahoma Terra to submit requests for “reasonable” attorney fees and costs. Their requests for fees were submitted, but Knight has an opportunity to submit objections to the fee requests. These objections are due to be filed by June 28th. A court ruling on a fee award is expected within two weeks. Knight’s attorneys do not expect the court to award the City and Tahoma Terra the amount of fees they requested.”
A new interview has been uploaded with JZ Knight, Founder and President of Ramtha’s School of Enlightenment, and the sole channel for Ramtha, the Enlightened One.

“A Divine Feast with Ramtha”
Donated by JZ Knight & Linda Evans – a unique & rare gift to Rainier-based Children’s School of Excellence (CSE).
To be auctioned off at the Seventh Annual CSE Auction Gala, Sunday, June 27th, 2010 at the Red Lion Hotel Olympia (2300 Evergreen Park Drive SW Olympia, WA). Tickets are available online.
The Children’s School of Excellence is a Washington State approved Pre-K through Grade Six, coeducational non-profit private school, where young people prosper in thought and imagination and explore all possibilities as individuals and as members of a school community.
CSE is dedicated to providing an educational environment that supports the development of students who are confident, productive, responsible individuals who possess the ethics, habits, skills, and attitudes that prepare them for higher education and lifelong learning.
Palm Beach radio hosts, Charlotte McGinnis and Lindsay Babich, will broadcast their interview with JZ Knight on The Art of Living Well talk-radio program on Thursday, May 20, 2010, on WPBR 1340 AM in the Palm Beaches with live video streaming on the internet at www.wpbr1340am.com
“The statements of Ramtha about chosing a female body as channel and the Truth that we all have G_d within provides students of The Ramtha School of Enlightenment with incredible enlightment and empowerment tools to navigate life during these times of planetary shift,” adds Lindsay Babich, co-host of The Art of Living Well and a Spiritual Healer.
Co-host Charlotte McGinnis, founder of the Palm Beach Center for Living, shares, “JZ Knight’s intelligence and grace is reason enough to draw over 12,000 international students to this important school of mind training – Ramtha’s presence is icing on the cosmic cake.”
In response to the Court of the Appeals opinion issued on April 13, 2010 dismissing JZ Knight’s LUPA petition and reversing the Thurston County Superior Court ruling,
JZ states, ”Our attorneys are reviewing the decision and evaluating options.”
Every year the taxable sales report for Thurston County during the Third Quarter usually drops. This time it dropped close to 9 percent, and lower numbers have continued to show up on reports for the last seven quarters in a row, according to state Department of Revenue data released Thursday, January 15, this year.
In the State of Washington, taxable retail sales fell 11.6 percent from the previous year. This is the third-largest decline on record so far. The City of Yelm fell 17.29 percent to $35.7 million from $43.2 million the previous year.
Notwithstanding, Ramtha’s School of Enlightenment’s (RSE) demographic reports show a contribution to the local economy during the last Third Quarter by RSE students of $642,250, which is 1.8% of Yelm’s $35.7 million total retail sales. Furthermore, RSE’s demographic reports for the entire 2009 show a significant increase in local spending by RSE students from the previous year, a new record of $2,709,613 reported by 6,767 students who participated in the demographic survey.
Quite impressive, being in a major recession as the data shows!
Students of Ramtha’s School of Enlightenment are proud to contribute to the local economy and private businesses of this community.
Tis the season of giving and we are all about thoughtful giving. I humbly ask you to consider giving to the Children’s School of Excellence this season. The little school needs your support to keep its doors open and its remarkable children learning.
Please read this letter below, crafted by Laura Craig and Rebecca Capezio.
“Imagine if you were encouraged as a child to believe in yourself and know that all of your thoughts and ideas matter. Who would you be today?
There is a remarkable little school for children doing just that.
Inspired by Ramtha’s teachings, the Children’s School of Excellence was created to give children the opportunity to learn and grow in an educational environment that supports their minds and greatest growth.
Based upon the principle that teaching young minds the ability to focus enhances their ability to learn any subject, Ramtha’s disciplines and guiding philosophies are integrated into all aspects of CSE’s curriculum. Students, ages three to twelve, are encouraged to be innovative thinkers and apply their whole selves to their academic studies, play, and friendships.
CSE offers a high caliber private school education at an affordable cost to the families in our community to ensure that all children who wish to attend may do so. The school thrives because its teachers, parents, and students love what they are learning and experiencing. But the resources to sustain the school need greater community support to make these opportunities possible and ongoing.
Your contribution towards this dream would be greatly appreciated. All children have a diverse passion and curiosity for life, and every child deserves the best education possible. Their legacy is a gift to us all.”
