October 8, 2000

*	Athena  (Gerdean TR):  I am Athena, a celestial artisan.  I am joyous to be
here to visit with you this afternoon.  I will not take up the whole day,
however, I would come in and paint you a picture, give you a lesson.
	Pause a moment to reflect on the vibrant colors of your life, this in terms
of Light and Life and how you perceive that which is in front of you.  The faith
that what you see is real is an inherent part of my message, for the spirit is
truly visible.  Let me bring into your consciousness the artist Vincent van Gogh
and allow yourself to stand close to his work, his brush strokes, and
observe the
movement within the molecules of his vision that have led your eye all over the
canvas, giving the painting depth and dimension and movement.  The planet
Urantia
is like this in that, if your eye can find a point of reference for
perfection, a
simple pinpoint perspective on perfection, it is possible then for that
allowance
to grow and move across the page in an orderly fashion until such time as the
canvas of your life is a work of art, is moving and pulsating with the energy of
the universe.
	The point of this mini lesson is to again introduce the concept that you
can see perfection.  The stillness is a point of reference for perfection that
offers such clarity of vision that anything hailing therefrom is going to be
abundant with life and power.  If it proceeds in grace and with determination it
can do nothing but expand the cosmos, indeed.
	The art of living.  When you find your point of reference and begin to
create the canvas of your life, proceed in faith and confidence as when you are
led away from clarity you will be aware of the altered perspective and will
allow
for yourself to be redrawn back to the source when the time comes.
	The time has come now for me to move over.  Your regular teachers are here
in joy of your gathering and the many mysteries that are unfolding in the season
of your world physically and morontially.  Farewell.

*	Elyon (Mark):  Yes, I greet you today, this is Elyon.  I am pleased to be
welcome among your group, and I am thankful to each of you for making the effort
necessary to hold our regularly scheduled program.
	In watching over you all these last weeks it is clear and obvious to all on
our side that you are forming new growth rings even as we speak.  It is a joy to
behold when this stirring of the soul propels you forward into engaging the
spirit process with serious abandon, for when you extend yourself in these
realms
you are indeed a flower opening its petals to the light of your Father.  You may
be unaware that it is He who stimulates you thus just as the flower is uncertain
of its relationship to the sun.  Nevertheless, this basic relationship underlies
all that the flower may do.  It is not important that the flower understand the
exact nature of its relationship to its environment and to its life-giving
source
of sun, but only that the flower attempts to work as efficiently and completely
within the parameters it does recognize.
	It is too much for a child to describe the nature and function of the
neural pathways you are becoming familiar with.  It only serves purpose to
educate the child using that framework which you are aware of.  Later in the
evolution of the child you may explain further and in greater detail just how he
was able to learn these truths.  For now it is only important to take the steps
to insure that he does learn these truths.  All will be made clear to you each
one as you mature and increase your capacity of understanding to include the
reality which you are and the reality which live by.  For now we are attempting
to strengthen your sense of your position in this reality and are quite pleased
to make slow but certain progress in this realm.  Indeed, to expose you to all
the ramifications of all the reality you will come to know would be entirely
over
your heads, much as a complex lesson would be inappropriate to a small child.
	By coming to us, the teachers, you are in reality practicing your faith,
strengthening your faith bond with spiritual reality, and building the necessary
foundation wherewith to enlarge your capacity.  This inner desire to reach out
beyond your normal range of vision, of perception, is the propellant
necessary to
enable you to design your individual, to use your word, constructs.  You are
even
now engaged in the meshing of much information made available to you, and the
settling in of this information will prove very fruitful in times to come when
you return once again to your tool box to gain the tool with which to
efficiently
harness the power each of you inherently contains.  As a celestial it is joyful
to witness this process much as the budding of the tree in the spring, much as
the flower poking up through the snow, as the greening of the earth.  It is
life. 
It is light.  It is the abundance that is yours for the taking, for the asking,
for your effort at development of these tools.  It is a joy to even have the
opportunity to discourse with you about what a joy it is to perceive.  But I, in
deference to the many who are involved in this process, would allow time for
other contact as well as remain in attendance for any questions directed that I
may be of assistance in answering.

	George:  Will there be assistance from the teachers in the years to come to
push this construct to its absolute maximum capacity?  Can there be forthcoming
information from the teachers to allow everyone to get the maximum out of it?
*	Elyon:  Our directive as facilitators and appointed representatives is to
work with the individual.  To that end we have great leeway in working with
individuals to recognize the values inherent with the program you propose.  We
are in favor of any program promoted which fosters the control and positive
manipulation of the great forces available to the individual within the confines
of their own mind and brain.  We would certainly ... any individual's desire to
accept this or any other similar program which would enable an individual to
better harness their own abilities.
	We see this as not an end but as a beginning.  We see this process which
you are in great study of at this time as a means to an end, as a tool to be
possessed and used by individuals interested in spiritual growth.  Whether
or not
they may view it as spiritual, it is a valuable component of directing the
mind's
potential.  This may be helpful in many aspects of an individual's existence,
exceedingly helpful when an individual may use this process to go beyond their
mortal existence.  You in this room have already assumed that second step, and
therefore this process is exceedingly valuable to you to pattern-ize, that is,
put into order a process whereby you can regularly and routinely lead your busy
minds to a place where they can be contacted by spirit more readily.
	You may do many other things with this program your propose, as well.  You
will come to find out the many areas of your life that may be enhanced by use of
this technique.  We are primarily interested in only the spiritual impact of
this
process.  Others may be interested in other aspects; that remains our focus,
however.
	Does this address your question?
	George:  Yes, it does, thank you.

*	Elyon:  It is perceived there are many questions.  Feel free to say on.
	Gerdean:  If I were promoting this Akashic well of knowledge, this place to
go, this construct, I would start a rumor that it is only accessible by reserve
corps of destiny.  That would start a scramble to get there first, since we are
all eager to make an impact.
*	Elyon:  I perceive your direction of the use of reverse psychology to make
an attraction to this process, and I perceive you are in jest.  I would however
take this opportunity to step out on a limb and urge caution in some regard.  I
would perhaps urge certain caution against any perceived or unperceived
ownership
of this process.  This process is public domain to all sentient who walk on your
world.  It is a gift to be given.  It is a gift to be accepted.  It is another
tool, not the only tool.  It is as specialized training to those who would
embrace it, and to those who would accept it, it is a treat, a reward for their
efforts.  I would caution you against any actions that might be taken which
might
be perceived as exclusionary, as restrictive in any way whatsoever.  Our mission
is to promote such teachings.  Our mission is to share with all those who will
listen.  That is also your mission: to share, to promote, to freely give to all
and any who seek.  We must never be accused of fostering a division of us and
them, of those who have, those who do not; those who know, those who do not. 
These barriers must be completely obliterated.  That as well is part of our
mission.  That is why I stand out here on the edge of my mandate in cautioning
you, do not make this mistake.  This is as God's love to each of you to be
shared
openly and freely.  It is as Michael's mandate that we be about this business
together.  This is not to be possessed.  This is to be shared, to be had freely,
to be fostered in any individual who desires to seek it and who finds it.
You as
individuals it is your privilege to share it.  It is not for you to judge who
should have, who should not, who is qualified, who is not, who it would benefit,
who it would not.
	However, having stated this we all are aware that judgment and discernment
must be a part of this process.  To broadcast openly and unrestricted these
messages would not be effective communication of this process.  You will
know who
is seeking.  You will know when they come to you, when they come to another,
when
they are in search mode.  Then their spirit speaks to your spirit, and you know
that to share this tool with them will be helpful, would be good, would be
right. 
You do not simply walk up to a stranger, tap him on the shoulder, and begin to
instruct him in this procedure.  That would not be prudent, would not be wise,
would certainly not be effective.  However, if a stranger were to approach you
and ask you what you know about how to reach spirit, how to guide and train and
harness the power that is your mind and your brain, then you share freely and
openly and completely.
	Each of you has this ability to discern the correctness.  If you are in
doubt we will help you.  Come to us.  We will help clear the matter up as to the
appropriateness.  But when it is appropriate make this process a free and loving
exchange of beauty.
	Gerdean:  Thank you for your comments.
*	Elyon:  Thank you all for your interest in these comments.

*	Helena (Ginny):  Hello, this is Helena.  I am a seraphic ....  As my name
indicates I bring great light.  Helios is 'of the light'.
	When you speak of privilege, of special talents, of callings, vocations, it
is as far as we are concerned an invitation to increase your perceptions and
your
intuitions so that you, yourselves, may become healers of light, for when you
call to us to assist you in helping another, you are in fact calling for
assistance to help yourself.
	If you truly concentrate on clearing the pathways of healing so that you
may be a clear conduit, this in and of itself will provide the attraction.
It is
very easy on your planet to murmur among yourselves as did the friends of Jesus
at the gathering of the supper.  "Where will I sit?"  "Where am I going to be?" 
"What chair can I have?"  "What place will I have in the kingdom?"  How heavy a
heart our master had when he observed this behavior.  We do observe in you
however a sincere desire to be conduits of light, and we do not see much of
this. 
But it can creep in fairly easily.  The apostles' concern for status in the
kingdom was still so predominant that they many times missed the message.
	It is wise for you to follow your inclinations, your inspirations, and to
follow them with a clean and sincere heart, for there are indeed many
pathways in
our Father's kingdom.  Your areas of expertise, each one of you, each one is
different.  Each one uses aspects of the personality you feel most comfortable
in.  That is to be commended.  It is with intention and sincerity that you
do the
most healing and that you clear your own desires, that you be only of service.
	It would benefit all of you to be more inclusive in your work.  If you
exceed in one area it would be beneficial for you to open up and include other
modalities.
	It has been a great pleasure to be among you.  I share my light with you. 
I come with great admiration at the quality of your service.  G'day.
	I have been recently made aware of your group and you provide a lesson for
me also, to observe your ways of being.  You also have been an inspiration
to me. 
I will be around.

	Ginny:  From reading about the Planetary Princes, .... as advanced at times
and at times it doesn't look so advanced, at all.  In trying to get to one
language and one race as planets in Light and Life do reach, it seems such a
long
time to reach.  At other times it seems at our fingertips.  Where do we stand in
terms of uplifting the planet?
*	Elyon (Mark):  Elyon here.  You have been engaged recently in the exercise
of attempting to separate yourselves and your realities from the aspect of
time. 
I say to you that you are not able to successfully accomplish this when you look
at your standing in the spiritual evolution of your world.  You see
yourselves as
after some and before others, as part way through, as a long way off.  You ask
where you stand on this line.  I say you stand alone.  You stand separate from
this process you call time.  You may not be able to divorce yourselves from the
lineal perception you have of time, but when spirit beings are exposed to the
reality which is your world, which is your destiny as a species, as a race, and
as an individual, we see only the successful completion of this model before
you. 
We see that in eternity all aspects of spiritual growth are necessary, are
right. 
You may have this comparison structure in your perception process; we do
not.  We
take you in your individual reality and see your standing as good, as right,
even
as perfect in the parameters of the overall scheme.  Yes, there is much growth
left before you.  There is much growth you have already completed.  We speak in
terms of this process of growth from point A to point B as the flower budding
then unfurling then passing through its season only to come around again.  These
are the conditions in which your mind embraces reality, cyclical natures of
growth occurring repeatedly.  We perceive the process differently, as a great
horizon spread out before you in which you occupy now a random position and then
a random position and in the future another position to be determined by your
spiritual standing in your evolution.  Indeed this process is not lineal.  You
can through your own freewill exercise step backwards in this process.  You can
reverse this lineal progression you see and actually recede down this line.  But
as we view it the only direction is up, the only direction of growth is forward
and inclusive and embracing.  The more inclusive and embracing, the larger your
perspective, the more spirit content, which is the true measure.  Not how
long it
took, where you are, and how far you have to go.  Your spirit content denotes
your position on this scale of ascensions.  Nothing more.  No relationship to
others is present, only relationship to the Father.
	So, as you perceive we operate using two different scales.  In the end the
only scale important to you is our individual scale of spirituality, of
attainment of the spirit realm.  Your success is measured thusly, not in
relation
to the project, not in relation to others or your world or even your universe,
but individually in relation to your approach to the Father.  That is the only
true scale of measurement and one which will not match anyone else's scale, will
not correlate with any other known reality, rather it must be taken on its
own to
stand by itself where it belongs as a freewill individual, as a unique being of
time and space.  To transcend time, to be a being of space, a being of eternity,
this is your goal, your destiny, and the path you are each now walking at this
very moment.
	I perceive that this question has further ramifications, that others in
this group harbor this same question as to their standing spiritually.  Let
me go
one step farther in attempt to remove all doubt from the corners of your minds
that you somehow are not what you should be, that you somehow fall short of the
attainment of your mind's eye, that you don't measure up to a standard perceived
in relationship to others.  You must free yourselves from this restriction.  You
must let go of your comparison to a preconceived scale or to relationship to
others.  Allow yourselves to be exactly where you are.  As your manual has told
you, the quickest way to become a frog is to live each day faithfully as a
tadpole.  The quickest way to spiritual growth is to immerse yourselves
completely where you are so that you may obtain that level and rise to the
next. 
It serves no purpose to afford yourselves obstacles by uncertainty as to your
spiritual standing.  Each one of you gathered here has great spiritual progress
over which you should be very pleased and proud as we are who are observing. 
Your relationship to spirit is the only goal worth seeking and the one you are
increasingly becoming oriented to.
	I hope this message brings some peace to those who would harbor
uncertainty.
	Ginny:  I just found myself thinking things much as the apostles did.  It
makes me smile.
*	Elyon:  Smile, embrace, and love.  This is how we transcend.
	George:  Thank you, Elyon.
*	Elyon:  You are all most welcome.  It is indeed my privilege to come before
you at times like this.  It is my treat.  It is my reward, and I embrace and
accept it as my station and as my position as I hope that each one of you
does in
your daily existence, embrace your station; embrace your position; live it
fully. 
Be it so that it may gain its fullest expression thereby becoming part of your
ascension career, a gift for you to have and hold.  Thank you.
