</SPAN><SPAN> </SPAN>Yes, rest assured you are
attended.<SPAN> </SPAN>We are with you, observing the dynamism of your
gathering.<SPAN> </SPAN>Coming from so many different places around
the country and different places in the heart, or in whatever you are up to,
be it caretaking, suppertime, coming and going home from work or whatever,
you bring your energy and we will see what we can do to mold it into a
pattern that will reveal itself in a vortex of energy that will allow the
channel of communications to open and as much truth as possible come
through.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Welcome, one and all. This is
Tomas speaking.<SPAN> </SPAN>I often take up the baton at these Light
Line events because I am familiar with Gerdean and she with me.<SPAN>
</SPAN>One less thing for her to worry about benefits the entire
program.<SPAN> </SPAN>This is the way it is with humans. Each one has
to be tended to independently and individually.<SPAN> </SPAN>Each one
of your needs is unique and personal. Each one of your concerns is to a
great extent our concern because it is your mental frame of mind that
affects your emotional state of being and also is the gateway to the spirit
life, the higher thoughts and concepts of mota that we enjoy when we come
together.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Let me say too that sometimes
when we get together, very little is on a spiritual plane. Very much of it
is on an emotional level because that is where you are in your psyche and it
is very important for any teacher to meet the student where the student is.
It would do no good for me to try to talk to you about trigonometry if you
are still trying to learn to multiply and divide.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Furthermore, there is some
concern about what comes through, as to whether it is good enough or not
good enough - by whose standards I don’t know, but assuredly everyone has
standards and everyone will ascertain for him or herself what transcripts,
what transmissions, what teachers, what T/Rs, what lessons, what concepts
are compatible and which ones are “old hat.”<SPAN> </SPAN>Some may
consider some lessons too ‘far out’ to be believed while some may feel the
lesson is too ho-hum to be endured.<SPAN> </SPAN>But there is overall
value in the experience, even though all these possibilities are in
existence. Uppermost is probably the idea itself, the concept itself, that
we can engage one with the other. You come to these gathering to lift
yourself up and that is priceless. </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>The experience that happens
to you as you open yourself, as you open your mind and your spirit to
celestial helpers, divine ideas, encouragement, assurance, and sometimes
actual information, is a testimony to your faith, to your willingness to
grow, to be open to the possibility that truth can come to you in many
guises.<SPAN> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>It is a tremendous experience
for the T/R because it provokes the T/R to be in trust of the process
itself.<SPAN> </SPAN>It also offers a discipline because the T/R must
set his or herself aside in order for the persona of the concept to come
through.<SPAN> </SPAN>Making oneself deliberately small is a good
discipline for many occasions, but it also enables the opportunity to
experience by proxy the teaching techniques of their elders.<SPAN>
</SPAN>This is a tremendous opportunity for those of you who take up the
task of learning to receive and transmit from this higher plane of
consciousness whereon we meet and mingle and commune.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Now that we have gotten here,
I am able to commence with a lesson.<SPAN> </SPAN>There is
interference on the line, however, that is distracting, and so I will rein
in my T/R and apply the disciplines such that we can proceed.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><U>The Fact of
Fear<SPAN> </SPAN></U></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>The times are upon us now
where there is high drama everywhere.<SPAN> </SPAN>The fear has not
abated.<SPAN> </SPAN>Some kinds of fear have peaked but other kinds of
fear hastened in to take its place and so there is still tremendous fear
facing us and when we face the fear of the community and its individuals,
our work is compounded because we must work first to reduce their fear, for
when people are in a state of fear they are closed to adventure, they are
closed to logic and reason. They are in fear mode. This is a very emotional
state of mind and being.<SPAN> </SPAN>Even though they may appear to
be quite calm on the surface, there is great fear in the collective psyche
at this time.<SPAN> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Be mindful of that when you
go out into the area to be about the father’s business.<SPAN>
</SPAN>You have the same natural animal fears as anyone because you are
animal origin beings and many fears are simply there because they are
designed to help you survive, but you know that your fears are manageable.
There are many who refuse to accept that they have fear; they have not yet
begun to manage fear, and they are in denial they have fear. They can become
belligerent and hostile without much provocation. So even though you have
your own fears to deal with, be assured that there are others whose angst is
far worse.<SPAN> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Be kind.<SPAN>
</SPAN>Kindness is very difficult to muster when you are feeling put
upon.<SPAN> </SPAN>Sometimes it seems as though kindness in times of
great stress is ludicrous, that you must be firm.<SPAN> </SPAN>And it
is true, you must be firm, but you can also be kind.<SPAN>
</SPAN>These two things: firmness and kindness, will help put to rest the
fears of others -- those invisible fears that would do harm -- not
intentionally but as an impulsive reaction to what they perceive is coming
at them.<SPAN> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Before you go out the door in
the morning, or in the afternoon, or in the evening, before you open
yourself up to your environment, be sure to invite your spirit helpers to go
with you and be mindful of their presence with you.<SPAN> </SPAN>As
you get in your car, as you drive past the corner store, as you settle
yourself into the ride, as you park at your destination, and as you approach
your task, take your spirit helpers, your spiritual consciousness with you
so that you are armed and prepared, and so that you can be calm and respond
sanely and serenely when you interrupt or interfere with the lives of others
simply by presenting yourself.<SPAN> </SPAN>To those in fear this can
be considered an act of aggression.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>I almost feel I should
apologize for the caliber of my words this evening. They are hardly words
you want to hear; they are not encouraging a high state of spiritual
consciousness such as one might anticipate with rose-colored glasses or
blind faith. They are really very much the concerns of the human, but you
see <I>you <B>are </B>human</I>, and as I mentioned earlier, my task is
dealing with you as you are and whereas you might not like to think about
your fears and the fears of others, you would appreciate my efforts if you
could see yourselves as we see you. </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Now, let me hasten to add
that we also see you as tremendously courageous people. The courage that you
manifest because of your faith is often inspirational. As you have been told
for many years, your enthusiasm, the inspiration you bring, your buoyancy of
spirit, make our lives easier, our work easier and the lives of your fellows
easier.<SPAN> </SPAN>And it is merciful to try to make life easier and
more meaningful for those you love, for those you care for, even those who
are strangers, because it is “Jesusonian.”</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>And yet it is also good to be
mindful of the circumstances in which you live, be aware of the signs of the
times, and the circumstances today -- sociologically speaking -- are
strained, and humanity is under duress.<SPAN> </SPAN>Help put their
minds at ease. Reassure them that you want nothing from them. You want
nothing unreasonable. You have no expectations. Except, of course, the
natural course of business as it is carried on, and even there, be merciful.
There are some who have no work; there are some who are losing their homes
to foreclosures through no fault of their own; there are some who are
leaving for war or returning from war that are embattled night and day, as
are their families.<SPAN> </SPAN>The elections coming would indicate
that no one can be trusted, that your leaders are all failures, out to
deceive you, and these are not words that provide comfort or poise to people
who long to hear the simple truths the Master spoke of in ways that
mean<SPAN> </SPAN>something to them, so simplify your approach in your
ministry. </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Remember the lessons of
Teacher Will: smile at people; help them by opening the door for
them.<SPAN> </SPAN>Simple acts of kindness go a long way toward making
the world a better place in which to live. In truth, if it isn’t one crisis
it’s another, and there will be many, many moons before this planet settles
down to a serene and peaceable existence. But you who are forerunners of a
new way of life, one which invites the joy, the order, the security and the
plentiful affection of divinity, are able to set the pace for
tomorrow.<SPAN> </SPAN>Contribute to the making of the future
today.<SPAN> </SPAN>It need not be grand, your contribution. It may
not even necessarily be inspired or illuminated, but simple acts of kindness
that bring peace of mind and a moment of restfulness is a gift, the same
kind of gift we enjoy here in this moment together in the light line
broadcast where we are all at ease and at peace knowing we are in a safe
place with loving companions and wise overseers.<SPAN> </SPAN></P>

</SPAN><SPAN>
</SPAN>Thank you. I have something I would like to share with the
group.<SPAN> </SPAN>I probably have shared before that my son died
about three months ago.<SPAN> </SPAN>And I was having kind of a hard
time of it yesterday, or the day before. <SPAN> </SPAN>And after I went
for a long walk in the park and after going for a long walk, I was kind of
communing with the Father and I was talking to Him, kind of reflecting on
things.<SPAN> </SPAN>And when I came home, I wrote something that I
think that … I felt that my Father kind of inspired me to write.<SPAN>
</SPAN>And I would just like to share that with all of you.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"
class=MsoNormal><B>TOMAS:</B><SPAN>
</SPAN>Proceed.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"
class=MsoNormal><B>Paul:<SPAN>
</SPAN></B><SPAN>
</SPAN>Okay.<SPAN> </SPAN>Well, the thing I wrote, I entitled it “The
Gift” and after I read it, I think you will understand what its
saying.<SPAN> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN>Do you remember, my
children, what it is like to receive a gift? <SPAN> </SPAN>Especially
when you are all children with all you could think about. You might have
wondered if you were going to receive that cool 1-speed that you were
pestering your parents about.<SPAN> </SPAN>On the morning that gifts
are given out, the young child is waiting to receive what he expects will be
his in short order.<SPAN> </SPAN>He rips open his gifts with excited
vigor, hoping that he will find a gift that he has been waiting for all
along.<SPAN> </SPAN>He does not see any evidence that his 10-speed is
waiting for him so it is with some disappointment as he opens his last gift
that he discovers the object of his desire is nowhere to be
found.<SPAN> </SPAN>Then with a teasing grin, his parents tell him to
take all the wrapping paper out to the garage.<SPAN> </SPAN>He
reluctantly does so.<SPAN> </SPAN>As he opens the door to the garage,
he sees it! The 10-speed is standing before him.<SPAN> </SPAN>With his
parents standing behind him, he turns and thanks his parents as he hugs them
vigorously.<SPAN> </SPAN>“This is the perfect gift!” he tells them.
</SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN></SPAN> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN>When that child grows
up, he remembers with fondness the love that his parents had for him, and
the tender way that they showed that love. His parents had always treasured
him, and made that plain often.<SPAN> </SPAN>He will never forget the
day when he opened that garage door, filled with disappointment and regret,
only to have his feelings turned upside down. He will never forget the look
of satisfaction on his parent’s face as he discovered the gift – the gift
that was discovered in plain sight.<SPAN> </SPAN></SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN></SPAN> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN>The first day that all
of you discovered me within your mind was also a momentous discovery. You
were astonished to find, when you opened your garage door, that waiting
inside was not a 10-speed bike, but a precious gift from the First Source
and Center.<SPAN> </SPAN>Isn’t it true, my children, that your
Parents’ unconditional love motivated you to express that same love toward
others?<SPAN> </SPAN>Well, how about the gift that originates from the
First Source and Center?<SPAN> </SPAN>There is something indefinable
about that gift.<SPAN> </SPAN>You can’t quite put your hands on it in
the way you put your hands on a gift that you can see and touch and
feel.<SPAN> </SPAN>Yet this gift is so profound that mere words are
unable to express its beauty. </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN></SPAN> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN>But, have you ever
admired, children, the beauty of a pearl? There is something about its
luster that is indescribable.<SPAN> </SPAN>But have you ever
considered how the pearl forms?<SPAN> </SPAN>Well, oyster pearls form
when an irritant forms within its mantle. The oyster is unable to dislodge
the irritant so it begins to excrete a hard substance called
“knacker”.<SPAN> </SPAN>This substance is composed of calcium
carbonate.<SPAN> </SPAN>As long as the irritant remains inside
the oyster, the knacker continues to build upon itself, layer after layer,
until the day that a pearl diver plunges into the depths, the forming pearl
remains hidden.<SPAN> </SPAN>Then he pries open the shell and
discovers a lustrous pearl inside.<SPAN> </SPAN></SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN></SPAN> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN>Did you also know that
there are pearl farms where pearl technicians will artificially introduce a
foreign substance into the mantle of the pearl oyster?<SPAN>
</SPAN>With surgical precision, they will introduce a small piece of shell
into the mantle of the oyster.<SPAN> </SPAN>Over time this irritant
will cause the oyster to excrete calcium carbonate to surround this
irritant.<SPAN> </SPAN>These oysters hang from rafts and the
technicians periodically check the temperature and change the depth of the
oysters that are hanging from the raft by varying lengths of string.
<SPAN> </SPAN>These technicians will also raise the oysters to the
surface, cleaning them of any debris that may have accumulated, and even
giving medicine that discourages parasitic growth.<SPAN> </SPAN>Not
all the oysters survive this careful treatment, but those that do, are
harvested for their pearls. </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN></SPAN> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN>But does not a pearl
enhance one’s beauty?<SPAN> </SPAN>There is something about its
luster, shine, and perfect symmetry that dazzles and causes persons to take
notice. But isn’t it ironic that such beauty is a result of an
irritation?<SPAN> </SPAN>Without that distress, the pearl would not
form.<SPAN> </SPAN>You may wonder why there are so many irritants that
cause you such distress.<SPAN> </SPAN>Perhaps you have suffered grief
over the loss of a loved one.<SPAN> </SPAN>Maybe you are divorced, and
the loss of your partner feels just as intense as a death in the
family.<SPAN> </SPAN>You may have lost your job, or your house has
been foreclosed.<SPAN> </SPAN>There are almost an endless variety of
troubles that mortals experience in this world.<SPAN> </SPAN>And yet,
my children, instead of succumbing to despair, why not let the Maker of
unconditional love, peace, understanding and forgiveness cover over those
irritants that form over our skin?<SPAN> </SPAN>Then when a diver
plunges into the depth and opens our shell, he will find a perfectly formed
and lustrous pearl.<SPAN> </SPAN></SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN></SPAN> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN>You see, my children,
you may wonder why I am speaking to you about the pearl.<SPAN>
</SPAN>The pearl is priceless, its beauty inexpressible.<SPAN>
</SPAN>It’s a priceless gift that so many want to possess it but, after all,
a pearl is just a thing.<SPAN> </SPAN>It is a precious gift, surely,
but isn’t there a gift more precious than that?<SPAN> </SPAN>Do you
think that I am speaking of the gift of the Father fragment?<SPAN>
</SPAN>Well, we are a precious gift from the Father, my children, but I am
not talking about that gift.<SPAN> </SPAN>Don’t you see, my children,
I am the diver that plunged into the depth in search of
beauty.<SPAN> </SPAN>When I ascended from the depth, I held in
my hand an open shell with a precious pearl in my hand.<SPAN>
</SPAN>You are the living, breathing pearls.<SPAN> </SPAN>You are the
gift that makes a mere pearl pale in comparison.
<SPAN> </SPAN><SPAN> </SPAN><SPAN> </SPAN></SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN></SPAN> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><SPAN>Oh, I failed to mention
the final part of the story, as it relates to the child receiving his
10-speed on that special day.<SPAN> </SPAN>When the child turned to
his parents and hugged them vigorously, he told them that this is the
perfect gift.<SPAN> </SPAN>With tears in their eyes, the parents
turned to their child and said, “No, my child.<SPAN> </SPAN>You are
the perfect gift.”<SPAN> </SPAN>Please, my children, never
forget.<SPAN> </SPAN>Hear these words as I hold you close in my arms,
“You are the beauty.<SPAN> </SPAN>You are the pearl.
<SPAN> </SPAN>You are the perfect gift.”<SPAN>

how I felt about him, and then when I was communing with the Father, this is
something that came through, so I wanted to share that with the group

<SPAN> </SPAN>It is true that many
people, particularly people of faith, can be very cavalier about these
things, as if to say that believers ought not waste overmuch time being
concerned about death and rebirth or resurrection, but that’s what it all
boils down to. That’s what Jesus came here to demonstrate ... or, that’s
what he <I>did</I> demonstrate when he was here. This is not the end; this

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>The mental state that allowed
you to sit with that thought and the pen and pencil to formulate those
pictures in your mind and convey them to your hearer or your reader is a
creative consciousness. It is in a way a transmission, one over which you
assume certain creative control.<SPAN> </SPAN>It counts!
<SPAN> </SPAN>It’s part of the solution.<SPAN> </SPAN>It’s a way
of opening yourself to create something that can convey meaning and value to
others. </P>

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Yours is a gift. I would
suggest you learn to T/R, but essentially <I>you are</I> T/Ring.<SPAN>
</SPAN>There are so many different mental constructs around this activity.
The main one to remember is that we are able to work together -- the spirit
and the flesh, the human and the divine -- in harmonious and productive
partnership, in relationship, productive and effective.<SPAN>
</SPAN>And while ordinary life is rich also, adding the dimension of the
spirit adds a little cosmic bling, a little twinkle to the otherwise matte
finish of your portrait of life.<SPAN> </SPAN></P>

</SPAN>I would just like to say that that man’s story, poem, was so
beautiful, I am sending it to my daughter.<SPAN> </SPAN>It really
touched me.<SPAN> </SPAN>And it was an absolute beautiful analogy, so

<SPAN> </SPAN>Thank you.<SPAN> </SPAN>I appreciate
that.<SPAN> </SPAN>I know I had been – Gerdean has been talking about
T/Ring, and when I try to T/R, it doesn’t seem that I’m hearing anything,
but when I felt the Father come into my heart … I appreciate
that.<SPAN> </SPAN>I felt inspired to share it with you
tonight.<SPAN> </SPAN>I’m not ashamed to say that when I was writing
it, I was weeping in various portions of it.<SPAN> </SPAN>It was
almost like it was a – almost a surprise to me as I finished the ending and
how deeply it touched my heart, and I wanted to share that with everyone
here.<SPAN> </SPAN></P>

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><B>Marty:</B><SPAN>
</SPAN><SPAN> </SPAN>I
have a question for Teacher Tomas.<SPAN> </SPAN>I have been hearing
references to changes in our material bodies.<SPAN> </SPAN>I wonder if
he would like to address that subject.<SPAN> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><B>TOMAS:</B><SPAN>
</SPAN><SPAN> </SPAN>Actually, no.<SPAN>
</SPAN>The body is your vehicle and it’s not going to significantly change.
The best thing you can do is take care of it. By adding the spirit to your
consciousness you invigorate your body, you become more sensitive of it,
perhaps, more appreciative of it, but as for DNA changes or other
alterations that are being discussed today – stem cell research, <I>ad
infinitum </I>– it is not my favorite subject.<SPAN> </SPAN>If you
have something you would like to say about it, however, I would be happy to
listen and perhaps add some council, but it is not something I choose to
bring up myself or discuss.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><B>Marty:</B><SPAN>
</SPAN><SPAN>
</SPAN>Well, thank you anyway.<SPAN> </SPAN>I just – I’ve been hearing
so much about it and it seems to me that there is some kind of a change in
the physical energy, the pulsation of energy and all in our lives and that
must affect all physical things in our lives, as well, is what I was
thinking.<SPAN> </SPAN>And I imagine the raising of one’s
consciousness is also going to have an effect on raising our body functions
as well.<SPAN> </SPAN>And that’s all.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"
class=MsoNormal><B>TOMAS:</B><SPAN>
</SPAN><SPAN> </SPAN>Yes.<SPAN> </SPAN>It’s one of those
subjects that are filled with mystery. And humans generally know so little
about your body, how it works, what it is capable of, what it has already
done for you, how it has endured from the time life began – not just yours
but life from inception – is so huge, so vast, so many mysteries are
involved and so many discoveries are being made that promise to cure
diseases or reverse the aging process or re-grow new organs or alter the
DN<SPAN style="TEXT-TRANSFORM: uppercase">A </SPAN>or keep you alive for
years beyond your normal age range. There are so many mysteries and
possibilities and speculations, it could occupy us indefinitely. And to what
purpose, to what end?<SPAN> </SPAN>You really need to deal with what
you’ve got to deal with on a daily basis.<SPAN> </SPAN>Take care of
what you’ve got, who you are.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><B>Marty:</B><SPAN>
</SPAN><SPAN>
</SPAN>Well, Teacher Tomas, I just really marvel beyond belief of the nature
of the living organism, the human body.<SPAN> </SPAN>Its just – to
realize the unlimited things that it does without even our consciousness,
I’m guessing food and the passage of nervous impulses that go on throughout
the body, the tremendous balance that it has with all its
organs.<SPAN> </SPAN>It, itself, is a tremendous revelation.</P>

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"

</SPAN>Truly.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"

creation.<SPAN> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"
class=MsoNormal><B>TOMAS:</B><SPAN>
</SPAN>Yes, it is.</P>

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"
class=MsoNormal><B>Marty:<SPAN>
</SPAN></B>And who put it together this way from amoeba in the shore
waters.<SPAN> </SPAN>I mean, if this is just a little indication of
the nature of the universe, then it’s just beyond – beyond anything that we
could begin to comprehend at the level that we’re at.</P>

</SPAN></B>Well, not that I am.<SPAN> </SPAN>I was expressing the

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"
class=MsoNormal><B>TOMAS:</B><SPAN>
</SPAN>Well, you are also part of your body.<SPAN> </SPAN>I know that
you are more than your body, but you are also your body.
<SPAN> </SPAN>As long as you are living in it, you are not removed from
it. </P>

class=MsoNormal><B>TOMAS:</B><SPAN>
</SPAN>Your mind also is an incredible thing, one which I am quite sure you
have little idea how incredible it, in fact, is. The way it functions in
concert with the body is truly incredible.<SPAN> </SPAN>And indeed
each of you is a miracle, a walking miracle, even without
god-consciousness.<SPAN> </SPAN>Add god-consciousness to that and we
really have got something there. <SPAN> </SPAN>It’s truly very
thrilling.<SPAN> </SPAN>And when you begin, as a race, to realize all
that you are, you will begin to perceive the potential that you
have.<SPAN> </SPAN>And if you can ever learn to work together, there
is no end of the wonderful things that will come about as a result of your
will seeking to do His will. </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>This is when light and life
is in full array, but it can be enjoyed even now and the many steps along
the way to get to that point. It is, I am sure, gratifying to our creator
and our creators to hear your praise of their work and to appreciate the
equipment that you’ve been given to work with, to live in, that functions
for you and with you at the whim of your brain and the will of your
mind.<SPAN> </SPAN>Yes, God is very much a part of you and whether you
are conscious of it or not, it is beyond words.<SPAN> </SPAN>There is
hardly anything I can add or say about it that can add more than what we
have already just acknowledged.</P>

</SPAN><SPAN> </SPAN>I am going to close our
session since we have been here our allotted portion of time. I have, as
always, enjoyed my time with you and, as I have observed the evening unfold,
it is apparent you have enjoyed your time here as well.<SPAN>
</SPAN>Continue to minister to others as you pass by and to take care of
yourself so that you can continue on in the process of being about the
Father’s business simply and humbly as you pass by. <SPAN> </SPAN>Thank
you.<SPAN> </SPAN>Have a good evening. Amen and farewell.
