<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">*    Lantarnek
(Jonathan TR):  I greet you, this is
Lantarnek, happy to be visiting again, happy to be about the
work of our Sovereign Son.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     You
are quite aware of and sensitive to the effects of
time, for you have been engaged in this unfoldment of time for
awhile and have enough background history to look back upon
and perceive the unfoldment that occurs as time transpires.
You have now with this history gained a better perspective of
what the future entails, for you have the accumulation of
wisdom derived by witnessing patterns. These patterns are not
perceivable to one who has no time legacy.  It is apparent
that you grow as a result of perpetuating pattern
establishment, not the stagnation of pattern repetition but
the kaleidoscopic effect of pattern change.  At each point in
your progress as an evolving soul it is revealed the matrix of
your being, and that entails not only your accumulated
experience, but those grace bestowed gifts, talents, and
intelligences that are in you, upon you, and with you.  All of
this evolutionary process entails that necessary time
interval.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     I
witness your sensitivity to your effectiveness in this
life for the master.  You are sensitive to efficiency
appropriateness and fully value the impact of what you do as a
minister of light, as a child of the loving Father.  You are
also motivated to continue to grow, and it is good to perceive
that in yourself.  I am able to monitor your soul ascension.
It is a quality of a melchizedek to do so, for as teachers in
the Nebadon schools we must be capable of assessing your
degree of ascension, not only as you stand but the rate at
which you rise.  To perceive students like yourselves who are
consciously applying yourselves to spiritual unfoldment is a
delight.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     Evolution
is one of the most miraculous occurrences that
we all are witnessing and directly participating in.  But my
point today is not to further describe this process, for we
will continue our development of insight into Supremacy as we
further our lessons.  Today I wish to speak instead of
evolution upon involution.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     Evolutionarily
you witness one thing rising out of
another, be it the adaptation and adjustment of species, be it
the development of skill, be it the refinement of invention;
everything in life is one thing springing from another, not
just in alteration but developmentally.  When I use the word
involution I am speaking not of that continual springing
forward from something prior; I am speaking of that eternal
Divine Presence.  The “search for God” as a phrase in reality
is the quest for the revelation of the Father through you, for
there is no place to search.  Evolutionarily we each are in
the process of revealing God, and that is who you know as the
Supreme Being.  However, aside from, apart from, time
altogether is the divine Presence.  You have that very
Presence within.  I would break some rule here to state that,
though we encourage stillness as a prime activity in this
Correcting Time mission, it is better to say that  rather than
seek the stillness it’s better to think of it as being in the
stillness which is already present at the core of your being.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     The
arrival of the divine Indwelling Spirit provided you
with everything that can be represented in the dimensions of
eternity and infinity and absoluteness qualified by the fact
that your time/space constraints diminish your ability to see
its entirety.  Yes, we will step by step evolve the Supreme,
but we do not need to step by step discover the Father.  It’s
instantaneous.  It already is from the divine side a meeting.
The evolutionary mind struggles with making connection, for
that is again time oriented.  If you can set aside the feeling
of reaching in to the Father and more appropriately just feel
the Father, you would be over your first hurdle, and that
would the be the removal of the element of time which
continually tends to cause a sense of separation.  This gives
some explanation to your prior teachings that liberalize the
amount of time required to practice stillness.  When you know
deeply you are already in connection with the Divine Presence,
stillness simply is.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     In
the experience of divine contact there is to be
discovered and withdrawn all the energy and power and
motivation you need to be about the unfoldment of God through
time and space.  The discovery in your personality of reality-
ness, your own discreet being, this is the greatest gift any
one of us can make to the Father.  It is our passion as
creatures to discover the Father.  It is the Father’s pleasure
to discover the child and to see the replication of all that
is God in a discreet, other-than personality.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     You
are, as I note, keenly aware of your frailties and
faults, your quirks and shortcomings, and you know with a true
humility how foolish it would appear to state that you could
absolutely replicate God.  That is not what the Father seeks,
for that is not the feat He wishes to perform in this medium
of time, for He already is Himself, and He has already
replicated Himself in the Eternal Son.  What He desires in the
divine passion is for your unique, discreet, and aware
replication of Godliness defined in your being, not conformed
to a standard.  It is difficult to present this idea, for it
is paradoxical in nature.  How do you acquire a divinity
status if you do not define the divine nature based on the
qualities of God?  How do you stand discreetly divine if you
do not in some way approximate or attain God?  My friends, the
secret is in the divine gift that dwells within you.  The
Father has already seen to it to bestow within you that divine
distinction.  The Father Fragment is its own entity even
though it is God.  Each of you has one that is other than the
other’s.  All the while it is the Father.  You will evolve to
be a brilliant spirit being, and it is this Divine Fragment
that will cement all the variability, all the variety of your
experience, into that single revelation of Creator and
creature.  If you have God involved in your life you will be
successful as you spiritually evolve through life.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     I
have finished my remarks.  I am with you.  Others are
also in attendance.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     Tom: 
We are working with stillness which is a time
experience of understanding the Father.  It takes a certain
amount of time to achieve that state.  Could you give an
example of how we might achieve that state, like in a sunset,
or walking in the woods, or in an act of kindness.  Is this
what you have in mind?</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">*    Lantarnek: 
Yes, these are good examples, for they are
illustrative of the fact that you can be engaged in any
external activity, whether it is kneeling in prayer or jogging
beside the road and still experience communion.  The
discipline is the time factor; the experience of oneness with
God is timeless.  I am aware of some of your traditions that
speak of attainment by ceasing trying, and this is accurate as
it addresses technique, for technique can interfere with
simply experiencing the embrace.  However, you are, honestly
speaking, time creatures, and time oriented techniques are
beneficial.  But as you have noted that sunset, that ministry
to another, can bring a connection that you recognize that
seems to suddenly appear regardless of the context that
stimulated it.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     I
may illustrate an element of meditation that is
helpful.  Practicing meditation can be compared to isometric
exercise.  If you push your two palms together and with both
arms forcefully push against each other, there is no movement;
there is a lot of effort; energy is expended; not much appears
to be accomplished.  Do you not feel that way in meditation?
Lots of effort, no accomplishment.  When you release your
hands, you feel relief.  At the release you are no stronger
than you were when you began, but in repeated attempts
strength is acquired.  In repeated stillness success is
attained.  However, you acquire it not in the accumulation of
the efforts; you already have that divine connection.  It is a
matter of recognizing it.  When you recognize it, it will be
much like when you discover that your exercise has brought you
strength.  You no longer feel weak.  Your power has become
your norm.  In stillness when you are able to experience the
Divine presence anywhere, anywhen, that will be your norm,
that will be your spiritual fitness.  Then you can dispense
with your exercises to prepare, and you will commence with
your practice of demonstration.  Your ministry will become
more effective.  Your growth will hasten.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     Michael
spoke of being reborn, and this is that rebirth.
It was not understood by the one who asked him when he was on
your world how to be reentered into the womb and reborn.  That
which you seek to give birth to is the presence of the Father
within you who is reaching oneness with you.  The birth is
there.  You recognize it, for you have undertaken your
spiritual journey long enough to have experienced it.  But
this rebirth is not an event that comes and goes; this rebirth
is always.  You are reborn continually, not over and over, but
in a steady constancy.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     Do
you wish to investigate this further?</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     Tom: 
Stillness is like the isometric exercises, you
gain strength.  But that’s not the only way to gain strength.
You can work in the fields.  It’s when you lift a wagon off
somebody or stack the hay bales that you realize you have
strength.  It’s not either/or but something to use in
conjunction with stillness.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">*    Lantarnek: 
Yes.  It is a delight to the mind to
discover stillness engagement even when involved in hectic
situations, just as you discover with delight your ability to
lift the wagon off someone during a crisis.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     Tom: 
Thank you.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     Evelyn: 
You started by talking about patterns changing
like a kaleidoscope rather than just repeating.  We could
remember that in taking on exercises to keep us disciplined to
practice stillness.  If we vary them it might be less
stagnating and help keep us interested.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">*    Lantarnek: 
Excellent point, for the practicing element
is, as I have stated, a factor of time, and time has connected
with it the element of monotony as well as variety.  So, by
varying your approach you displace that monotonous element,
and by varying your approach you soon witness that the goal,
the end result, is identical, that is that embrace with the
divine.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     I
am moved to inject here a qualification of that word
embrace.  It is more like an entwining, and even more like a
blending, a co-absorbing.  I seek words that remove
demarcation between you and the Divine Fragment.  But I am
speaking to you, not to your Divine Fragment, so words like
these help to indicate the experience.  But these variable
techniques will all lead to the same experience.  As you have
pointed out, you will discover any activity not only can lead
to this experience but actually contains it already.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     The
standardization of a stillness practice is typically
a development by human beings in order to provide a sense of
accomplishment through discipline and regularity.  But this
ought not to eliminate from it creativity, artistry.  This is
your personal reach to God.  It need not follow formula or
textbook.  You are not prevented from a discipline, for it is
noted that many human beings function well with a little bit
of discipline.  Therefore do be creative and feel free to be
inventive, unrestricted by a divine law or code that you must
adhere to.  The Father has, if I may put it this way,
stillness under His belt.  You do not need to mimic His
ability at absolute oneness.  As I said in my lesson, it is
your personal, unique, creative expression that He seeks to
experience.  You will provide the variety; He will provide the
same divine being to you at each time, to anyone anywhere.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     Ginny: 
In stillness, should we always seek communion
with the Father or can we commune with any other being?</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">*    Lantarnek: 
I would qualify that slightly in degree of
importance, for stillness, communion, is seeking a divine
contact, Creator in nature.  Yes, you can in like manner
through this same discipline of mind and engagement of
attention make contact with others, but that I would call
communication, not communion.  It is socializing rather than
stillness.  If you were to be visiting with your human friends
that is socializing.  Though you may visit with beings of
celestial nature, it is nonetheless socializing.  Not to be
frowned upon, I must add, for it is a delight to those of us
who do make our contact with you.  But as your scriptures of
old say, The lord is one God; He is a jealous god.  He seeks
your attention in communion singly, one pointedly with no
distractions.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     Ginny: 
This may be a silly question, but does aging
have any effect on our stillness contacts or transmission
clarity?  It’s a time/space question, but as I age I feel less
desiring of stillness.  I think of it as discipline, a little
work.  Transmitting, I feel I’m not as clear as I used to be.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">*    Lantarnek: 
Many factors are involved, and aging is a
factor both in the functioning of the mind through brain and
in the responses due to your glandular network, for as you
continue your life on this world, your body changes, and your
mind must function differently through this vehicle.  Also
your soul is evolving, and you have undergone numerous
experiences where you have felt contact.  Your faith has
become so strong that you know the presence of the Father,
felt or unfelt.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     It
is not an error necessarily to not want to seek that
contact if you have experienced it, you know its presence, its
everlastingness.  However, if it is neglected due to negative
associations, as you have indicated the aspect of discipline
and work, maybe then it is important to address those issues
within oneself that are causing the disinterest.  During the
last days of Jesus’ life he had little time for a pleasant
communion with the Father.  It was hurried.  When he had a
moment it was frantic in energy, but he knew that the Father
was with him and would not forsake him.  That is the level I
encourage you all to reach so that you could graduate from
practicing stillness.  And that may sound like a silly answer!</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     Ginny: 
Does frequent stillness practice increase ones
ability?  I’m sure it does, just like any habit.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">*    Lantarnek: 
Indeed, just as isometric exercise
repeatedly increases your strength.  No one event, no one
stillness, makes you fully capable.  Each one contributes, yet
strength in this illustration is present, and more present,
and even more present.  With stillness your presence of God is
more present, and more present.  Eventually you would not need
exercise to have this strength.  You would already have the
sense of the divine and not need to set aside a stillness
time, for it would always be.  But, as you know, if you cease
exercising it is not long and you weaken.  That is why we
encourage you even though you may be successful in this
practice to continue.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     Evelyn: 
The exercise you have chosen as an example is
one of pressing your hands together.  Dropping to our knees on
a regular basis may be another.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">*    Lantarnek: 
Thank you for that illustration, for I had
not considered that.  I had considered the static quality.
Yes, the association with hands that pray is indeed
appropriate.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     Tom: 
It’s not just putting the hands together as an
exercise; you’re encouraging us to use other isometrics.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">*    Lantarnek: 
Yes, for the stillness practice.  To
continue the illustration, if all exercise is for the
development of a stronger body, then strength is the overlying
goal of any variable approach.  Therefore, using this as
comparison, your experience of the embrace of God is the
overlying factor sought no matter what approach you make.  It
could be in chorus, in congregation, and it could be in the
quiet of your mountaintop retreat.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">     Ginny: 
Could you say the same thing about transmitting;
the more often you do it the easier it becomes?</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
</div>
<div align="left"><font face="Courier New"><span style="font-size:10pt">*    Lantarnek: 
It is helpful, and I will return to your
question on aging, that the transmission process between
personality and other personalities is not in itself hindered
by aging.  The same factors that effect mind in brain with
stillness also contribute to the expression of the contact.
Transmission repetition increases faith as well as clarity.
However, I would add that it is good that you all have not
taken this process to be extremely sacred, oracles from God,
because it is inherently flawed, not that it is error, but as
all human life has its accuracies and inaccuracies.
Transmitting must be included among them.  At the same time I
encourage you not to grow complacent with it.  So, if you were
to take a hiatus from transmitting you may break habits that
interfere with clarity.  But you may also break your faith
bond which encourages contact.  It is a faith building
process, but I caution all of you not to rely upon it solely.
Just as you would not seek all you truth from one book, do not
seek all your truth from transmission contacts.  When I say
this I do not mean that you should not read and I do not mean
that you should not seek contact.</span></font></div>
<div align="left"><br/>
