style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">0802-AB JACK</B> here. I have been here
enjoying the repartee among you, little family. It is always heartwarming for me
to hear you sharing your experiences and your developing God- consciousness.
Those of you who are sincere about this as a way of life are what we strive to
cultivate. Already, you see, you are a success. And while it is always advisable
to remain the student, you are able now to teach because you have found that
essential goal of connection with the First Source that enables you to function
now as an operator on Its behalf.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>There are others here this
evening who may want to come in and offer something. I will meanwhile reflect
aloud on some of the things I and we have been contemplating since last we met
on Light Line, one of which was the most potent message from Nebadonia recently,
having to do with the part and the whole in terms of “the group” -- the
community, as well as the smaller neighborhoods that make up the group.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>You will recall in the early days
of this<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>mission, this movement that
has come to be called the Teaching Mission, there was tremendous stress placed
on the group, the ‘teacher bases’ as they were called, and there is a reason for
that. It was certainly not to isolate you from your peer groups, but to provide
the immediacy of <I style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal">filiality</I>. <SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Your group provided an immediate family
environment in which you could grow, even as other groups were undergoing the
same process and had each other with which to find comfort and companionship.
And what a wonder it was when all the groups could get together for a major
gathering! That is when we were able to see this ideal of community in its
fullness, or at least a bigger fullness, and it was very stimulating,
indeed.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>The seasons come and seasons go
as with all movements, indeed, with life itself. There is a time for this and a
time for that, and for many the time came for them to move on simply because
they felt they had gotten from the group what they needed. They had some private
time with God, discovered their goals, did some serious correcting on some of
their personality quirks that were getting in the way of being effective and
happy, and they simply moseyed along, even as there are some of you who stayed
-- and <I style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal">continue </I>to stay -- mostly now
as teachers in your own right, but also as students since this process of
getting familiar with your indwelling God fragment and affecting your
environment is a long-term process. In fact, it goes on throughout eternity,
always learning and then teaching what you know. </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>It is for those who love learning
that we rejoice in the progress we see. We do not lament the changes that take
place in any social paradigm because we know it is like the tide. It comes and
goes, but it is dependable and it sustains all of life by its coming and going.
Even the seraphic planetary government has epochal angels who orient themselves
to what each new generation might be introduced to, so as to carry on the
process of evolution, even spiritual evolution. And each of these epochs,
short-lived though they may be, provide all the thrill, all the nuance of all
the rest of all those that have gone before -- the challenge, the stimulation,
the problem-solving, the seeming failures; the stamina, the courage, the triumph
– these are a part of every generation, and those who observe as the generations
advance and evolve, are those who have the long-range perspective that sees
things more in keeping with the way we midwayers see them, inasmuch as we have
been able to see it over a long period of time.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Time does provide a perspective
that short-timers can’t possibly catch onto.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>But what they can get becomes a part of
them and, over time, if they are faithful in the little things, they will be
given greater things to manage … greater challenges and greater accomplishments,
eventually to serve in the Corps of the Finality, and so there is no opportunity
for boredom. Even though you may be able to look back and say “I saw it coming;
I knew it was going to be that way; I told you so,” you also know that it is
unique and original unto itself and those involved have a right to that unique
and original experience.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Eventually
and gradually, I suppose, we will all develop an attitude like Mother Nebadonia,
where we are all simply her children, one vast group. </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>And, Lord knows, She has helpers
enough to help us all know what to do next in our area, our corner of
creation.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>It’s always a joy for me to share
my perspectives on things. And yet I realize that sometimes, my perspectives,
without your being able to identify or relate, are just stories, just filler
that might as well serve as a bedtime story, having no real value at all.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Since we have a small group, perhaps we
could have more of those intimate chats such as you were enjoying earlier that I
might be able to contribute to or participate in. <SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>If you would like, open the door and come
in and we can talk more about what matters to you and what your perspective is
on the current epoch in which you find yourself.<SPAN

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Having no response as of yet, I
will prevail upon the Teachers who have presented themselves here this evening
to see if any would like to take advantage of the opportunity to present a
lesson … if not to this intimate group, to the listeners at large who will
receive this lesson in due course through the process that has been established
by you in this forum.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>One

style="mso-tab-count: 1"> </SPAN>Good
evening, indeed. I am Tomas, the opportunist. I am always happy to have an
opportunity to insert myself into an occasion that promises to not only get
outside of myself but to get close to you. I always hope to establish some
degree of intimacy with you. Truly, I hope to speak “face-to-face” with your
indwelling Adjuster, but I cannot and will not overlook you as a personality in
this process. For it is your personality that is having this experience that can
reflect upon it, act upon it, reject or embrace it, and so you are in the
drivers’ seat, you two-brained air-breathers that I am pleased to call my
students.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>I have been called a philosopher
and I have no objection to the title because all I can do is present thoughts to
think about. It is you who must decide whether to give them any credence and
whether they will open the door to your cosmic consciousness or not.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>As such, naturally, I hope to be
amenable, and this is something all of you would do well to emulate.
Graciousness such as Jesus manifested is not impossible by his children, his
brothers and sisters such as yourselves. And so at least in these formal
settings, we can afford to be gracious; we can afford to be generous; and I
enjoy the set-up that allows for this to happen. Indeed, if I find that I am
unable to prevail in the environment where I would teach and preach and
represent the good news, it would behoove me to sit back and abstain from any
attempt to press myself into your good graces lest I become a nuisance, and if
there is anything that would displease me, it would be to be regarded as a
nuisance when my great desire is to serve.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Perhaps this is the essence of
diplomacy.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It is not so much a
technique of maintaining rapport after it has been established, for within
discussion and debate philosophers are often heated and enthusiastic in
presenting their perspectives. But this is along the lines of that spiritual
truism, that: First get them inside the kingdom; first help them become
conscious of their godly aspect, and once they are firmly implanted therein
(which is certainly not your doing but their own), then you are on more or less
equal footing and you can give and take with the best of them. This kind of
repartee is invigorating! And we teachers engage in it often, as do others far
beyond us in the hierarchy of heavenly helpers and celestial beings.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Even on the administrative levels of the
superuniverses there is much speculation and discussion as to possibilities and
probabilities, but there are always surprises, for none of us has all the
answers. </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>This is perhaps the one thing
that gives us the most unity of all: that with the assurance of who we are,
there is so much that we don’t know.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>Ah, the humility in such a condition. How can you be anything but humble
when you haven’t got all the answers? Even those who are far beyond our
experience and wisdom admit what they don’t know. In the end, only God knows. It
is said He knows the end from the beginning, and while we may speculate in our
realm what may happen down the road as a result of what happened in the past,
given the nature of the beings we work with and the circumstances of our milieu,
it is still always “in the mystery.” </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Each day is a new adventure. Even
when you deal with the same people, the same group, the same family, the same
fellow workers, the same neighbors, each day is a gift … a unique gift fraught
with challenges and learning opportunities; chances to learn yourself better and
to set yourself aside to know others better; to work with others and learn how
they can work better with you. It is such a process, this organic growth of the
Supreme, and you have such an intimate involvement, so very personal. It is
probably just as well that you don’t know how that works, just that it <I
style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal">does</I> work … and that it works for you
and with you, blessed assurance.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>I have given my little
mini-lesson for the evening.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I am
always glad to have this time to spend with you, to draw your mind forth. I can
ascertain your mind function give way to the unlimited font within, the
imagination that helps you soar, the spirit that leaves you weak with awe and
wonder, and the identity aspects that crave to act upon your light of truth, to
be busy being about the Father’s business in the ways that you see appropriate
for you and your circumstances under the conditions you operate. And so, the
process continues; the university never closes. Between classes, we have time to
reflect and time to rest until the next occasion for learning begins.<SPAN

fortunate to be one of those midwayers who have been trained as a liaison. There
is no talk that I’ll be re-trained in another service, so I will delight in the
task set before me.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I have enjoyed
every bit of it so far. I have grown myself in the process. I have grown through
knowing you and knowing the T/Rs I work with. </P>

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>It is a very dynamic school for
me, I assure you, just being who I am under the circumstances of my existence.
It’s nice when you can reach that point of being glad of life no matter what. It
takes some time however to get to that point. There’s a lot of growing up that
is necessary -- and I am eager to admit that I am not grown up yet -- but I have
grown a great deal since I came into being and I have experienced plenty of
wayward behaviors appropriate for the citizens of a planet like this. And I have
turned myself inside out (as you very cleverly stated earlier in your
discussions). </P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>I have been turned inside out and
have been enjoying the process of cultivating this side of me. I will however
probably never forget the delinquent I was before Jesus came here and impressed
us so with his amazing life. But isn’t that the way it is with most humans, if
not all humans? They are self-serving until they are touched by a son of God who
reveals another way. Let us be that son of God now, that daughter of Divinity,
that child of Heaven that enjoys being, that has something encouraging to say,
that has some disciplines to offer, that has some perspective on things, that
has some experience under its belt, that has hope and confidence in the future
despite the woes of today.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>

style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Or anything to say, or add to these
proceedings?<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>[Pause] In that case,
my friends, I will close the session. Let me just add another thought or two to
put things aright for those who still suffer, those who have not found their
way, those who seemingly without choosing have found themselves in most
inhospitable circumstances, be it war, poverty, disease, hunger, want of any
kind. Never forget that they are the ones we need to reach.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>They are the ones who need this Light
that we shine. They are the ones who will replace us when we are gone, those who
will survive this experiential epoch to rise anew like the Phoenix to live again
in and through the divine Spirit that indwells us.<SPAN

souls, to be of good cheer, to bring the light of truth.<SPAN
