<BR>T/R's: Gerdean for Michael

Pianist Dorenda - "Take Time to be
Holy" <BR>Prayer: </DIV>
<DIV>(Matthew) Let's place ourselves in the presence of Jesus, the
Christ.<BR> <BR>Master Teacher,<BR></DIV>
<DIV>We come to you today with Light in our Hearts and Hope in our
Beings<BR>because we are once again gathered together and recognize the Power
of<BR>Believing as a Group - a Body - part of the Body of Christ in the
mystery<BR>and the mystique and the simplicity of that. As we may never
understand<BR>it in our lifetimes, we are part of that mystery nevertheless, and
as we<BR>are, that unites us for all time and more importantly in the here and
now<BR>to know what it is we are to do as part of the Body of Christ, and
to<BR>accomplish it with Love and desire for wholeness and certainty
of<BR>purpose. It is that we continually meet and rejoin week after week to
be<BR>refortified in our Faith that we are one with you and our
heavenly<BR>parents, now and always.<BR></DIV>
<DIV>We ask that the teachers that you choose today will be able to address
us<BR>in a lasting purposeful way, that we may be of service to you and
our<BR>Father and one another both now and always.
Amen<BR> <BR>MICHAEL: I am he to whom you pray, your Master Son,
Child of the<BR>Universe, as <EM>you</EM> are, with you in this experience of
making Holy that<BR>which is not. <BR> <BR>What precious children you
are! How I adore you all in your innocent<BR>eagerness to come to me in Faith of
our relationship, in and through our<BR>Universal Father - Eternal Parents -
Mother Spirit and that which we<BR>regard as our Family, in this harmony we
enjoy in times like these, when<BR>you come to me in consciousness of my
presence. I am ALWAYS with you as<BR>you go about your daily
affairs. You are never out of my sight or away<BR>from the Maternal care
of my consort, Nebadonia, your Mother, the Divine<BR>Minister, Daughter of the
Infinite.<BR> <BR>We love you with an Infinite Love. We see you enjoying
each other as<BR>brothers and sisters in the Holy Family and rejoice in it, for
we know<BR>that we are seeing the beginnings of the Next Reality for your world
and<BR>mine - Urantia, our home. We are "about the Father's business". We
are<BR>the workers in THIS field. It is Our Will that His Will be done, here
in<BR>this vineyard.<BR> <BR>I acknowledge the presence of the noble
Teacher Corps who I have sent,<BR>through Machiventa Melchizedek, to aid you in
your journey and in your<BR>efforts on our behalf, and leave you in their
capable hands and observe<BR>your interchange which strengthens your resolve
within you, and also with<BR>out, as you serve.<BR> <BR>TOMAS: This
Tomas, your teacher. Anatolia and I are, indeed,<BR>acknowledged and, with
you, are grateful to be assigned this moment in<BR>time to advance the affairs
of the Universe. The music for today<BR>inspires me to speak of the idea
of revisiting the Holy Nature, which is<BR>a special occasion and yet a normal
and natural state of being for those<BR>of you who have embarked upon the
Eternal Career. <BR> <BR>Pause for one moment at the precipice of
your Eternal Career to review a<BR>Soul Birth. You may personalize. But
you may also perceive, in<BR>detachment, a Truth that your "Supreme decision" is
made at that moment<BR>when you choose to do the Will of the Father, rather than
that of your<BR>own devising. What's the difference? you may ask, as we
are all<BR>committed to The Course.<BR> <BR>The difference is the point of
departure from when you originally chose<BR>to consciousize your
existence. By dying to the Old Way of self and<BR>recognizing that in the
Eternal future, any action you do is<BR>'conditioned' by its Intent to Serve
that which is Other than the self. <BR>It is a simple difference between "me"
and "You".<BR> <BR>Having made "the Supreme decision" - to Live through
Service - to Live<BR>through the Divine is, in fact, becoming Conscious of your
Self - your<BR>True Self - your Soul Self, for this is the Self which will
endure. This<BR>is the Reality, which will contribute to the Evolving Supreme.
This New<BR>Self - that is Born of the Spirit - will unceasingly respond to
the<BR>Gravity Pull of Paradise - ever leading it onward into the fields
of<BR>Universe Experience which are designed to fill more needs and
provide<BR>more joys than your partial consciousness can realize.
<BR> <BR>But you can realize nothing without Divine Consciousness that will
have<BR>any value whatsoever. <BR> <BR>This is to encourage you - you
as a family - you as a Unit of Workers - a<BR>Community of Believers. One of you
can alter the course of destiny. When<BR>you are United in Purpose, you are more
effective in altering the course<BR>of destiny for you exponentially increase
your Power based on the Spirit<BR>Source. This is where Nations fail -
where systems fail and where<BR>Humanity fails! (- in exalting the opinions of
individuals.) It is<BR>enough to [make you want to] press on for Victory
or for Change. [for]<BR>The only Real Victory or the only Real Change that can
transpire is that<BR>which is Sanctioned by the Creator - otherwise the main
thrust of<BR>generations upon generations of energy is merely picking up where
you<BR>left off on the last rotation of the cycle of history which you
continue<BR>to repeat because you know no other way, because you have not been
Born<BR>of the Spirit which can lead you out of that repetitive pattern which
has<BR>no value, into the Light of Truth which is a sure Pathway into
Change. <BR> <BR>But, Progress without Change is dangerous.
(Pause) That was a poor<BR>choice of words for you children, but
anticipate at some point being able<BR>to access your minds as individuals who
are engaged in a process of<BR>deliberate and conscious application of the
Divine Will to the ways of<BR>the world in which you find yourself and that will
involve risk and<BR>effort that children are incapable of
accomplishing.<BR> <BR>But
We are embarked! Have no doubt! And once
Reality has been<BR>Conscious-ized, it will not diminish. It will not disappear.
It will<BR>remain as a Lucid Dream remains
reminding you and nagging you
- in the<BR>animal nature and in the Divine nature - about a Reality to which
to<BR>aspire. And you aspire toward that Reality because it was shown to you
by<BR>Revelation from the Divine Source of your Being -- You who, in the
flesh,<BR>carry out the Father's Will, to create the world of Light and Life
for<BR>tomorrow that we cannot resist for it is WHY we exist: To advance
the<BR>purpose of the original I Am.<BR> <BR>I am planting the seeds in
you, children, for the future of our<BR>community, for ideals and goals which
are attainable by you as a "body of<BR>Christ," by your commitment to be Unified
in Purpose. Let me ask you,<BR>each, What is your Purpose? How do you
perceive that your Purpose<BR>affiliates and augments the Purpose of each
other?<BR> <BR>I will pause now, on that note, and subside from
professorial titillation<BR>and allow my associates an opportunity to address
you today, in<BR>anticipation of our furtherance. <BR> <BR>Matthew:
Anatolia is here.<BR> <BR>ANATOLIA: Good day, this fine Sunday, the
first day of June - which<BR>means that the summer season has begun. And with
that comes the<BR>opportunity to be part of the sun and warmth and wonder in the
time that<BR>includes travel, exploration, and to marvel at the marvels of
the<BR>Universe made personal and private, in a sense, in your world.
Another<BR>way of looking at this is that the summer season enables everyone,
at<BR>various levels of activity, to become embraced with the earth and
to<BR>share in its wonder and mystery. The season allows for exploration of
the<BR>earthly splendor and to become part of it through exploring the
interior<BR>and exterior of your world.<BR> <BR>It could be likened to the
later part of life - in a fully lived and<BR>experienced reality: as you mature
and become more real, more settled,<BR>more seasoned in your personality within
your current life, you lose the<BR>necessity to have to adapt or camouflage your
true feelings and real<BR>being and are able to more fully be yourself, without
caution and<BR>pretense, as you become at-one with yourself. This is a
developmental<BR>stage in which, as your season proceeds, so too, you, as
mature<BR>individuals, are able to proceed in your development and further
explore<BR>that which is your color, contour, context of purpose and reality
here in<BR>your world.<BR> <BR>It is with great delight that, as this
season has been illustrated, that<BR>your time of life, right now, when most
people, regardless of religious<BR>belief or practice, are able to feel more
comfortable with themselves in<BR>their faith-growth process, some, as you know,
regain or revitalize their<BR>faith experience and become more fully engaged
within the Life Process! <BR> <BR>Prior to that, most of the stages of
development are reproductive in<BR>nature and the consequences and realization
and responsibilities thereof<BR>are the predominant focus. When these
responsibilities have been<BR>fulfilled, for the most part, it is like the
completion of Spring and<BR>then Summer allows you to explore, envitalize, and
enliven your Life's<BR>Experience - to walk into the sun and feel its presence -
to encounter<BR>the Greenery of Life within and around the vegetation.
<BR> <BR>I sense that you know the essence of my example and wish to
just<BR>reinforce you with the knowledge that you are well-engaged
and<BR>well-blessed with the Life that is presented to you as you begin to
enjoy<BR>the Life that Summer invites. Be at one with this as I invite you to
be.<BR>Become fully engaged, and explore the mysteries of your world as
you<BR>continue to be engaged and explore the mysteries of yourselves. Be
true<BR>to yourself and allow your purpose in your life to reflect upon
the<BR>others that you encounter - regardless of their station - regardless
of<BR>their faith. It is all one world within one creation and
countless<BR>dimensions or denominations thereof. It is wild with
possibilities as<BR>you continue to seek Truth within yourself and your
expression. So be<BR>glad and bejeweled in that experience of Life that you
encounter. Until<BR>we meet again in loving pursuit of Truth in your lives, I
bid you<BR>farewell. Peace be with you.<BR> <BR>Group: Wow.
You, too. Me, too. Thank you.<BR> <BR>TOMAS: There is an opportunity
here for me, Tomas, to acknowledge the<BR>distribution of Anatolia's
counsel in the efforts of the Center for<BR>Christ Consciousness, in and through
the efforts of mortal Donna<BR>D'Ingillo, who is a tireless worker for the
Master, in her teacher base. <BR>The opportunity to come to know the aspects of
the Mother Spirit - those<BR>nurturing and fortifying qualities of life which
are only known through<BR>her gifts and made part of you through the ministry of
the Adjutant Mind<BR>Sprits, and which lead you into a recognition of the
Soul-Giving<BR>qualities of what can only be employed through the Mother.
These are the<BR>Aspects of God which assist, stimulate, intrigue and support
all the<BR>elements of the Creator, and that Minister to the worlds of time
and<BR>space.<BR> <BR>There are so many marvelous contributions being made
by the very<BR>committed and are supported by the community of students in
this<BR>Melchizedek University that seek to serve and seek to enhance
the<BR>development of the Supreme in and through their own Ideation - their
own<BR>Faith-Path. I encourage you to encourage these workers - those who
take<BR>such risks and assert their will to do His will into the consciousness
of<BR>the community. <BR> <BR>This is what we expect of our apostles, even
as we continue to comfort<BR>you and coddle you, nurture you and minister to you
as you become able to<BR>come into your own and reach for the Fullness of having
chosen to do His<BR>Will, then being led to experiencing His Will. In this,
there is no<BR>greater satisfaction - no greater thrill - no greater
challenge.<BR> <BR>Dear students, what has been challenging you of
late? -- if anything
<BR>and what, if not, have you been amusing yourself
with that would<BR>contribute to your own growth?<BR> <BR>(Long
pause) <BR> <BR>Elena: Well I've had plenty of
challenges! <BR> <BR>TOMAS: Indeed, you have. (Group
acknowledges, also)<BR> <BR>Elena: If nobody else is going to speak
up - after giving everyone a<BR>good opportunity -(Group giggles) - This new
position [recent promotion<BR>at work] is really challenging me a
lot. Matthew and I were talking to<BR>Cicoli ["Chick-Coal'-Lee"], our
midwayer guide, about it earlier so I'll<BR>just kind of share some of the
feedback that he gave which was really<BR>important to me. I have a new
position - it's a BIG jump - but it's<BR>actually not! I can do those
things but you know there's a perception in<BR>there - and Cicoli was talking to
me about it and it's TRUE! This last<BR>week I've been letting myself be
bamboozled by people expecting me to do<BR>this "BIG" job - and
kind of afraid
of other people's perception as<BR>accepting whether I was the right person for
the job. And a couple of<BR>other people have commented in a "I wouldn't
have chosen you for the<BR>job," kind of way. And so I think I really did
come to see the vision<BR>that I am letting these little phantoms become
obstacles for me, and<BR>other people's perception. I am becoming what
THEY are perceiving rather<BR>than what I know I can be. So I kind of
comment on that to share it with<BR>people because I think I've gotten the help
that I need.<BR> <BR>Of course, you get back into the situation and this
'sense of being'<BR>evaporates - but I'll work on
I think I'm ready to go at
it another<BR>week and see how I can do this week.<BR> <BR>TOMAS:
Bravo on your insight! And thanks to Cicoli for helping
you<BR>consciousize that reality such that you have allowed the Spirit
to<BR>empower you to that additional degree - that you believe in your Self
and<BR>your own Source of reality rather than that of someone else. It is
one<BR>thing to 'hear' someone's counsel. It is quite another to adopt
their<BR>reality as your own. For when you adopt their reality as your own
you<BR>forfeit your own reality in the process. And unfortunately, so
many<BR>people have forfeited so much of their own reality they have NONE
left<BR>that they can identify with when all the other extraneous realities
have<BR>been shorn away.<BR> <BR>It is wise for you to retain your Own
sense of self and grasp a vision of<BR>your Own capacity. And I will say,
since you are a woman, that this is a<BR>very threatening time for Feminine
Consciousness to be "all that it can<BR>be" in a Spiritual sense, because it is
so often confused with a woman<BR>who is testosterone-laden and driven to
perform in the 'man's world' in<BR>such a way that she is disregarded,
distrusted and diminished in her<BR>potential because of the cloud of
misunderstanding that exists in the<BR>value of women - the daughter's of God
who have tremendous capacity to<BR>serve
in ways society has never seen fully
presented before.<BR> <BR>It is well and good for women to have a support
system for each other.<BR>But it is even better when women have the support of
men, for this<BR>creates a recognition of the balance that will be necessary [in
order]<BR>for men and women to evolve and advance together into a new world
in<BR>which they are both invested for the offspring of tomorrow. For this
is<BR>the ideal of Michael and Nebadonia that we have asked you to learn
to<BR>follow in reclaiming Urantia - in resetting its course.<BR> <BR>These
are very real aspects of your existence. And they will not diminish<BR>simply
because you translate to the Mansion Worlds - you, Elena, will<BR>always be a
feminine form of energy and consciousness, and you will<BR>always equal male
energy and your brother's, in the process. To be<BR>servile to the way 'things
have always been,' is to acquiesce to a lesser<BR>paradigm of reality. You must
take what is inborn in you through your<BR>Spirit and interject it into the
world as if it were a medicine being<BR>injected into an organism that needed
this enzyme in order to function at<BR>its finest and best
capacity.<BR> <BR>So you do, indeed, have your work cut out for you --
perhaps more than<BR>you realize. But perhaps, too, my counsel will offer
you a very viable<BR>prescription for a reality which is as valuable and eternal
as any your<BR>employers have to offer, and which will be helpful to you in
your<BR>commitment to your assignment.<BR> <BR>Elena: That is
helpful. I hadn't looked at it
upon the difference<BR>between (male-female)
I'd been Reacting to the difference between female<BR>and male - rather than
Thinking about that in a positive way, about what<BR>I might be able to
contribute to that. So that is very helpful.
Thanks,<BR>Tomas.<BR> <BR>TOMAS: You are welcome, daughter. Thank you
for being open to the view<BR>so that your Reactions can become a Response and
so that your Actions are<BR>Original and not
second-hand-emotions.<BR> <BR>Elena: Well I've had a few knee-jerks
this week - (laughing) - reacting<BR>to some stuff. I would much prefer that
they were Original and based on<BR>what I was Best able to
contribute.<BR> <BR>TOMAS: Then persevere.<BR> <BR>Elena: What
about the rest of you guys? Am I the only one who's<BR>challenged
here? (laughter)<BR> <BR>Myra: I do have a challenge. My
challenge this week has actually been<BR>the challenge of being able to slow
down - to identify the natural rhythm<BR>of my own life - of getting caught up
in who I am and what is my purpose<BR>here - instead of getting caught up in the
rat race of being busy all the<BR>time. And it's nice to have the time to think
about that and check the<BR>rhythm. <BR> <BR>TOMAS: This is more than
'nice,' Myra, this is essential and excellent<BR>timing in your career - that is
to say your Eternal Career - for you to<BR>take this season to alert yourself to
Your Own Pace and Your Own Pattern<BR>of reality. As you find yourself and
as you attune yourself to this<BR>presentation of Life that you are - you will
be renewed, then, in your<BR>resolve to maintain that which is Real - even when
you return to the<BR>arena in the Fall. It affords you a Sanctuary in which you
have been able<BR>to find yourself in a position to have daily chats with God -
to engage<BR>in the process of Worship and thoroughly enjoy your
conversational<BR>aspects with the Heavenly Hosts. This is the Reality
Base that anchors<BR>you in a vortex of Divinity that will have tremendous
repercussions in<BR>the community, simply in your very presence.<BR> <BR>I
have here a picture of a cartoon character who has stuck his finger in<BR>an
electrical socket and his hair is sticking out in every direction. And<BR>even
after his finger is removed from the socket his hair continues to<BR>stick out
in every direction as one who has been shocked and, you know,<BR>having had the
experience of this upcoming sojourn through summer into<BR>yourself and thus to
God, will render you similarly changed. Even when<BR>you remove your finger from
the incessant pulse of Power you will retain<BR>in your personality the
impression that you have been plugged into the<BR>Divine and will never return
to that state that you enjoyed before<BR>putting your finger in the socket of
Life.<BR> <BR>It is a bit like embarking on an eternal journey and you are
now pulling<BR>out of your dock - pulling away from your moorings - to head for
the high<BR>seas of such an adventure as we enjoy. Bon
Voyage!<BR> <BR>Group: (laughter and
appreciation)<BR> <BR>Matthew: I can add, too, that I'm challenged
with a new job opportunity,<BR>as well, and have to learn, over the next couple
of months, volumes of<BR>knowledge to go into businesses and judge their safety
practices. So<BR>that's a real challenge. But I'm not beaten into the
ground about it. I<BR>just look forward to it as an opportunity to learn
and just accept it as<BR>a challenge. So I'm not feeling what Dorenda (Elena) is
at the moment but<BR>perhaps my turn will come for that kind of pleasure. I
don't know. (group<BR>laughter) So I'm just sharing
that.<BR> <BR>TOMAS: Well said, both of you. The ebb and flow of
harmony graces your<BR>union. This is an opportunity for you to be in a period
of learning (but<BR>not an emotional realm) mere factual information. Your
challenge will be<BR>when you have accustomed yourself to the privacy of the
mind and later<BR>the experience of the necessity of experiencing the world
again with the<BR>information you have garnered, approaches and you must
perforce leave the<BR>secure confines of the mind in order to involve yourself
once again with<BR>the reality of your involvement with the world. Perhaps by
then your<BR>partner will have resolved her growth challenges sufficiently that
she<BR>will be able to provide a stable platform for you while you go
through<BR>this period of learning that she is now engaged upon.<BR> <BR>I
suggest this because I have observed how Our Parents have created
such<BR>balance in the Universe. There is such harmony in Real Relationship.
This<BR>goes to the phrase, "Trust the process." The 'process' of Life is
not<BR>something that is accomplished by a man-made schedule or an
artificial<BR>guideline. It is a Reality that comes into being because of the
Human<BR>Intent - the Mortal Purpose to be All that it Can be, which is More
than<BR>it Was prior to Identification with the Spirit.<BR> <BR>I'll remind
you, then, sometime, to put away your books and really look<BR>at these
companies' modes of operation and their motives and their<BR>intent, and then
perhaps you can find what is really dangerous, and what<BR>really meets with
approval.<BR> <BR>Elena: That leads back to a question I had earlier
about what you said<BR>about 'progress without change is dangerous.' Just
focusing on that one<BR>sentence, "progress made without change is dangerous" -
personally I<BR>didn't see how progress could be made without change. (group
agreement) <BR>So I didn't get that.<BR> <BR>TOMAS: It was T/R
error. <BR> <BR>Elena: Oh. <BR> <BR>TOMAS:
However
.<BR> <BR>Elena: (laughing good-naturedly)
Oh, of
course!<BR> <BR>TOMAS: No, I appreciate that your ear was hearing and
you called it to<BR>our attention. This is appreciated also by the T/R who is
distraught when<BR>her vocabulary fails, or her phraseology becomes something
spitted out<BR>upon our prompt without appropriate passage. I mean to say
that there<BR>many situations where one might think a lot of progress is taking
place<BR>because a lot of change was going on, but it might only be chaos
or<BR>trauma/drama and nothing really has been gained from the action.
This is<BR>the point.<BR> <BR>Elena: Okay. Well, that makes sense.
(group shares some comments) I get<BR>it.<BR> <BR>TOMAS: You cannot
even progress without change, yes, because if you are<BR>progressing then things
will naturally change. Just like Myra will change<BR>from having her finger
plugged into the Divine Power Source this summer.<BR>(group giggling at the
vision - and a comment about her hair and more<BR>giggling - we'll have a
picture of her for a while) We have three<BR>pictures we can work with.
<BR> <BR>The afternoon is getting full -- or should I say "the tape is
getting<BR>full" and there are three others here who have also been challenged
this<BR>week and who face real challenges. However, I am offering the
opportunity<BR>to persist or to return next week to these viable realities of
your work<BR>in your field, if you choose. <BR> <BR>It is, however,
good to see Renault here today. I understand the<BR>travelling companions to the
TeaM Conference (Renault and Gerdean) are<BR>getting their heads together to
talk about "girl things" in anticipation<BR>of their sojourn. So this, it
would seem, is their immediate challenge,<BR>and yet it hardly seems one to
worry about. This appears to be more of an<BR>opportunity than a
challenge! No doubt we will hear about it when you<BR>get
back.<BR> <BR>Renault: However, working out the details is a
challenge.<BR> <BR>TOMAS: Most of those are accomplished.
<BR> <BR>Renault: Oh, good!<BR> <BR>TOMAS: This is such an
important point to remember in applying yourself<BR>to your life's work -
whether it is the whole picture or merely a frame<BR>in the cinematography - if
you have been able to perceive it in your<BR>Mind's Eye you can Realize it in
the Material Realm if it is Sanctioned<BR>by the Power Source Itself. If
it is not [sanctioned], it would not<BR>matter how much energy went into
planning, it would not - could not -<BR>become realized. But this is not to say
that these visions should not be<BR>seen, or these plans should not be made,
because this is a part of the<BR>Creative Process
and who know when the
impetus will strike, when the<BR>spark will be able to ignite the fire that
turns that concept into a<BR>flame and a bonfire to be seen for miles
around?<BR> <BR>Do know that you are beloved children, that the Master and
His Consort<BR>are proud of you and of your potential in eternity. Know, too,
that as an<BR>advanced worker in the Teacher Corps, I am committed to your
development,<BR>your growth and your internal fortitude that will enable you to
reach<BR>your capacities as Spiritual Adults, in order to effect the changes
that<BR>can, and will, result in our Victory over the Darkness.<BR> <BR>See
you next week.<BR> <BR>Group: Thank you, Tomas. Have a
good week.<BR> <BR>Tomas: Farewell.<BR> </DIV></BODY></HTML>
