SUBJECT: LIGHTLINE TELECONFERENCE 2-28-08 ADJUSTER SERIES
TEACHERS: MARK ROGERS, THE VOICE
T/R: MARK ROGERS
Mark: Real quickly for my own sake and perhaps the benefit of others as well
I petition the universe to provide the necessary guidance that when we step
out in faith and when we act in faith that we are in fact acting as our
Divine Parents would have us act. We do this gesture in faith that when we
are following our leading, our guiding that our leading comes to us from on
high, from a place of divinity if we will only follow. Then certainly we
will be secure in our devoted attempts to be of service. That is my desire
in this moment and I accept that this will be so as a result of my petition.
As I said, this morning I picked up a pen and paper and continued in my
journal. I don't get a chance to ask questions much of the teachers and so I
had some questions, some uncertainties and I took the opportunity this
morning to ask and I thought perhaps by way of sharing this whole experience
with transparency I would share what I received and my questions. I began
with me- Mark:
Good morning my friend, companion and divine guide. I so very much enjoyed
my communion with you up on the hill this morning. I was reminded how
lovely it is when I take the time to be together. Thank you for meeting me
there and again here for some more sharing this time with the effort to
document the encounter.
The Voice: My friend, companion and mortal associate, I have no greater
purpose than to associate with you, how, where, and when you will permit and
allow this association to occur. As I have stated to you in earlier
communications, I am always on standby, ready to spring into action whenever
the opportunity occurs, especially whenever the invitation occurs.
Your making the space and taking or committing the time is your supreme
offering to me and as well to the First Source and Center who has created
the paradigm in which this supreme choice may be made. So while you may feel
and express gratitude at my presence and our relationship, it is I who
should attempt to express my eternal gratitude and that of The Father for
having made this choice and thereby literally created this avenue wherein we
may both express our gratitude in this moment.
Mark: Very well then, I accept your offering of gratitude and as well my
responsibility for the part I play in the creation of this reality and
relationship. As you well know I have offered my commitment to Michael, to
Monjoronson and to you to be of service in whatever capacity I may be
utilized to be in service and we both have seen where this has led us in
this extension of faith. As regards the particular avenue of service
expression I refer to as the Voice series, I witness this arena of
expression to be a distinct expression unlike any other I have experienced
and so I ask, is this effective, is this working, is it worthwhile for us to
continue, are we on the right track or am I deceiving myself that such a
direction is sanctioned as good and proper at this time?
I'm aware that my life experiences are unique and perhaps unusual that have
led me to this place of awareness I'm concerned that in sharing my personal
understandings and experiences that others may feel distanced rather than
identified with what is purely my own journey and truths. What say you about
such concerns?
The Voice: You observe correctly that such as we are engaged in, the voice
series is unusual to say the least. I know you struggle with the doubts of
others, some even citing the reasons for their doubts being supported by
texts of value such as the Urantia book. But I will point out to you that
even such valued text is a static and contained source of truth and wisdom.
but as it even states: "truth is living and dynamic" and you are creating
the pages that are being written right now about much that is simply not
contained within the text written over six decades ago. If you were to
restrict your experiences to what was written in the past you would not
know of Elyon or any of your teachers, of light anchors, of merkabas, of
Monjoronson, of Wave, of Light or of this "distinct direction" we even now
enjoy as you refer to it which I will point out, is the purpose and design
of your entire experience as a mortal of the realm.
You've done well to free yourself from imposing such limitations else you,
we, would not be having this exchange we both now enjoy. Maintain your faith
that you will be led by spirit, by me to boldly go where others may not have
explored yet. This I know to be the real commitment you have given and the
one that is key to this journey. You ask if this project is working and
effective because you do not receive much feedback about your efforts and I
understand this means continuing to extend in faith. I bring you the
assurance that there is great benefits to the efforts extended in this
direction well beyond your limits to perceive and it is and at this time it
may not be given you to see the fruits of your labor.
We are not planting and tending a garden which yields results in one season
but we are planting and pruning an orchard which may take a number of
seasons before fruit is evident. The garden comes and goes each season and
may be changed each season to accommodate the wishes of the gardener whereas
the orchard is a long term project requiring much patience and effort but
rewarding with much fruit over many seasons for the effort extended. You
asked if you were on the right track but only superficially as you know
within we are working together for divine purpose and you have conviction of
this purpose. As for your concern about your service to others in sharing
your life experience and truth- this is the single most valuable
contribution you can make to the thought stream and collective consciousness
of the brotherhood of man. I point out to you your own experiences that have
benefited you as a result of others willingness to share such as Neal Donald
Walsh, Eckhart Tolle, Mary Ann Williams and many others. I'm sure you can
recognize the truth of this observation.
As you are able to dimly intuit, the ramifications and benefits of our
efforts in this project go well beyond the scope of your abilities to
discern. As for your personal experiences and their relevance to the
project, you must remember that while your experiences are as unique to you
as others are to them, the one common denominator is the presence within
each and every one of their inner voice and the discovery of this
relationship is to be universally promoted and fostered, transcending all
variations in the details of experience. The Creator has provided for the
accommodation of all avenues of approach and will unfailingly respond to the
seeker whenever and however an approach is made. It remains forever true,
when one seeks in faith one will most certainly find, as is evident even now
in your receiving these words; not so much as evidence to bring you faith
but in response to the faith you bring.
Lean on this faith for your direction and your assurance and in turn this
faith will be your insurance against any serious misstep. My love for you
words cannot describe. We go now in peace.
The Voice: I would greet you once again by invitation. I am this ones voice
and I am flattered to be welcomed into this arena of sharing and the love
that abounds around the sharing of spirit. As you have just observed, the
private and intimate communication that was established are as a result of
the efforts of my companion. This is done to demonstrate the willingness of
the divine fragment within you to bridge the gap and establish communication
at any and every opportunity that you may afford for this purpose.
You have all been told that it is a rather simple matter and yet you
encounter frustration and ineffectiveness in your attempts from time to time
and you begin to think it is not easy or it is not as easy as you may have
been told. Something, perhaps, must be wrong, at least something is not
going completely right else it would be easier and you would be more
successful but I tell you that this is a process that takes some skill to
develop and much practice to refine. This is a skill which pushes the
boundaries of your very nature but this also is a skill that you are
designed to master in time.
Once you gain direct personal experience about how this occurs, how it
feels, what methods are used to breathe into this place it will become
easier and easier and with your patience and your practice you will be able
to bring yourself to this place of receptivity and awareness at will and
have access to that which you seek as you so desire. One of the largest
obstacles to overcome in this process is your expectations of what you would
like it to feel like, sound like and be like.
Your ideas of how distinct and different it will be are your greatest
barriers to simply perceiving what it's like, how it is and how it will be.
You enter into the equation weighted with the expectations about something
of a great magnitude which will be undeniable and persuasive about its
authenticity and you easily discount anything you perceive as regular and
normal in your course of everyday experience but you must embrace the
reality that while this experience may be different in some ways to you it
will also be quite familiar in other ways.
The thoughts that run through your patterns of thinking become so normal and
accustomed by you that you do not recognize the enhanced thoughts as any
different from the normal chatter. It sounds the same but it feels
different. When you stop to observe the thoughts that pass as clouds
through your consciousness you recognize the familiar tones and shades of
your own personality and you write off these thoughts as being simply more
of your own generated chatter.
You do not necessarily stop to differentiate between your higher augmented
thoughts that are also the carrier waves of divine thought as distinguished
from the random regurgitation of mind patterns. But all of you have felt
this difference. You have distinguished through other senses that there was
a difference in some of the ideas that run through your mind, that some of
the thoughts felt inspiring, felt liberating, felt divine and without even
considering whether these thoughts were your thoughts plus the enhancement
of your indwelling guide, you dismiss them as more of your internally
generated wholly material thought patterns.
More and more you will begin to feel the difference between that which is
simply in playback mode from your data base and that which is quite similar
but has overtones of more than simply the last time that thought passed
through your consciousness. Eventually you will seek out those feelings and
identify with that sense that you are in contact with something more than
just a random thought and you will begin to lean on your faith and have
trust that it is not only possible, it is part of your design that you will
be an instrument of divine thought as well as mortal thought. There will be
the use of your thought patterns, of your consciousness, of your awareness,
perhaps even of your vocal cords and diaphragm which will enable you to
express more than just your own awareness.
But a greater awareness is also available to you, an enhanced perception,
even divine ideals. They are yours as well and they come to you by virtue of
your counterpart in this process and it is all too easy to assume that
everything that goes on in your internal environment is nothing more than
the mortal chatter of your mind but you are beginning to awaken to the fact
that there are other things at play as well; divine inspiration circulating
through, supreme intentions rising to the surface, ideals that seem to come
out of nowhere and enter into your consciousness.
These have always been there, they have simply not been identified as
originating from your divine side, your holy counterpart. But times are
changing, energies are shifting and awakenings are happening hourly on this
world even moment by moment within these very moments and you are engaged in
this grand discovery that while it may sound like your voice, it may in fact
contain elements of divinity, of truth, of love, of awareness beyond any
current capacity you may have.
So I would encourage you to avail yourselves of any and every avenue of
approach; perhaps it is more stillness, deeper meditation, perhaps it is
journaling, perhaps it is art or writing. Perhaps it is service but look for
this enhancement everywhere. At every juncture, and every turn there is this
potential which simply needs to be chosen to become actual. But you cannot
choose something you are unaware of so the first thing must be in growing
your awareness so that then you may choose.
My mortal companion has demonstrated in this hour that he had an awareness
that journaling was an avenue to be used and he then activated his choice
which then created this expression which was dormant until it was chosen.
First it was required that he be made aware that this was an option, an
opportunity to be chosen and then it was required that the choice be made
and the effort put forward and as a result you witnessed that there was
success in his effort. It was a universal certainty.
It was the law of attraction put into effect, it was the simple principles
of awareness and choosing and acting which were the necessary components of
this creation and having fulfilled the necessary requirements, success is
all but certain. You all have gained awareness of the opportunities before
you and likewise it is a simple matter for you to execute your role and put
into play these universal principles, to wield this great principle at your
command and by your efforts. Ask and it is given, seek and you will find.
The thought, the word and the deed manifest. I would conclude my remarks
there and forever remain in attendance to observe and to participate as
invited, thank you.
Mark: I'm getting that's it for prepared remarks and to open up the floor
for communication of any kind at this time.
Q: This is addressed to everyone here and to the voice; this seems and feels
very much like a demonstration of how it is we share the inner life with
God, it's intimacy factor, as you mentioned earlier, how uncomfortable
almost it was to reveal such an innermost rapport as was in your journaling
which is a delight of that kind of very personal relationship we have with
our adjuster. I also appreciate the journaling theme as well as other
techniques of getting in contact with my inner life.
The very calm and unhurried authority that the voice has is assuring and
calming. Any anxiety you might bring it, it will find a way to bring you to
peace. There may be those who would say that this is our way of
rationalizing and justifying our own subconscious mind and that may be the
case because we are still imperfect but it nonetheless does provide that
salve that allows us to feel soothed in our innermost being.
Mark: Very well stated, thank you so much.
Q: Well in that context I feel that kind of an exercise is worthwhile.
That's what we're encouraged to do is get in touch with our inner voice and
when we dialog with it in the manner in which you demonstrate in the voice
transmissions it's just revealing how you perceive it, how it works for you
so others can practice that same thing. I was reminded that in the recovery
movement, they all talk about conscious contact with God as you understand
God and as we come to find out that God dwells with us and within us, then
He no longer is that outside entity in a faraway place or on a throne,
whatever, as we talk to that quality.
Mark: I will give voice to what my largest reservation about sharing my
journey through this; I have a concern that others will be dissuaded from
finding their own approach, their own terminology, their own understanding
and I carry that as a burden as a two edged sword. When someone like Neal
Donald Walsh for example, portrayed his experience, it happened to be a very
enlightening thing for me and by the same token he might feel as though it
would influence unduly others in the finding of their inner life.
Q: Indeed it might but people have been going to the priesthood or to
temples or sacred places or going through rituals or saying certain words
for centuries. It is part of evolution. You can take some responsibility at
some point because you may have a "following" such as Deepak Chopra Carolyn
Meese, they have a following, they have a fan club, admirers and that
understood as long as it doesn't reach the point of adulation, remember
who we all worship. That's your responsibility, that's where an ethical
teacher would draw the line. But everybody is going to get a little stroke
now and then, you bet.
Mark: I look at how I've benefited by the perceptions of others and am
grateful for their having shared their experience with me and so I have to
just extend in faith that sharing my experience will perhaps resonate with
someone somewhere and its o.k. to just be real and human and demonstrate
humanness with it. I don't know what else you could do. I don't know why it
is so difficult for me, I feel like I'm getting naked every time I do this
(it is, you're very vulnerable) and it's my own issue obviously, it's not
anyone else that does it to me and ( well you're demonstrating and you're
teaching and any time you do that you're bound to get hit by a rotten
tomato).
Q: Mark, I think we just need to accept our gratitude at the end of the
evening and we thank you for being transparent and it certainly encourages
us to recognize it in other people and try act in a way, it does me anyway,
throughout my life every hour of my life to be as straightforward and honest
as I can possibly have the courage to be. I think we honor you for doing
that with us.
Q: If I could speak for Mark to say we do appreciate having elder brothers
and sisters. Our teachers are elders and we become elders and you become
elders and this is what we pass on to others, our experience, strength and
hope and it comes through conscious contact with God as we understand God
and we understand the voice, we understand the adjuster, understand that
aspect that's an alter ego and a reflection of our highest ideals.
Mark: But I would with a whole heart accept your offering. I do appreciate
what you have to say and I take it within. I resonate with what **** is
saying, we are all brought up to be these same things that we look to when
we're learning and there is this transition that occurs and it is not often
easy to identify and then we find ourselves in a position where we look back
upon it and realize that there has been this transition and so...I don't
know,I was just reading as it came to me and feeling very free to do this
because it was a very intimate exchange...
Q: Actually it's not our business, it's a conversation that goes on between
you and God (yeah) The interesting thing is when that kind of thing is so
exposed as you've done it here on Lightline, and it will be broadcast all
over the place because of the transcripts and so forth, there are those who
may not want to do that because of they may not want the nation or the
community to see their inner workings with their God as they understand God.
There may be a whole different paradigm of what goes on there and even you
on a different day may be far more colorful in your assessments or whatever.
Mark: Or far more cowardly, I may decide that scares me being that intimate,
it's a little frightening, like you say how many humans on the planet do I
want...but really, I don't do it for me. I'm in this as a partnership, I
volunteered for this gig. ( I understand, it's your sincerity) and I like to
believe that I have the faith to go where I'm led in this process even if I
personally am unconvinced that that is the direction to go. This pushes my
boundaries and every time that I do this, in the moment I'm scared but after
I feel like I was led by the hand and I went. I have to get past being
nervous and just like t/ring you just have to know where they are going but
you just walk off the edge and into the abyss with them.
Q: Sometimes in that I look back and say it was something that wasn't
something I should have said, it felt like it was I thought it was, I said
it in good faith, I believed it, I went with it and then I look back and
something is telling me that was a mistake, an error. I have to keep from
beating myself up about that. Just let it go because I know I'm flawed and
therefore I know you're flawed, I know him or her are flawed but it is the
demonstration of our faith that makes us precious.
Mark: That is what we hope is not flawed you know what I mean..( yes, the
sincerity)
Q: If we were perfect we wouldn't be here.
Mark: Well, yet another new experience, any other comments.
Q: Thank you Mark for stepping forward because you're taking the courage to
step forward gives other people and idea of how this process works, so you
don't have to guess, their experience is going to be different but how the
process works if going to be the same.
Mark: I'm prompted to read the last sentence of this journal which was "lean
on this faith for your direction and your assurance and in turn this faith
will be your insurance against any serious misstep". That's what was said,
we extend in faith and that is what we are demonstrating and we take it on
faith that there while there will be plenty of minor missteps of course
along the way, we will be protected from any major missteps.
Q: It's not exactly like we're the material son or daughter trying to screw
up the dna or the rest of the human planet.
Q: I still want to say I think it is a huge step towards friendship that you
extend to us every time and I want you to understand that I take it and
offer you my friendship in return.
Mark: I as well will express that we have developed something, I would go so
far as "intimate" between us. We have walked down this road together for
some time now and many of you have been there every step of the way even if
you haven't been there in person you've kept up with every word that's been
said, every gesture that's been offered in faith and I feel as though we've
all walked this path together and I could not have done it were it not for
your support and I love you all.
