Daniel(Bill): My greetings to you all. I am Daniel, your [[guide]], your teacher, and your [[friend]]. Thank you, Cora, for you're your [[beautiful]] [[words]] in regard to our [[observations]] this evening with these our most highly esteemed [[students]]. I fully [[agree]] with your [[perceptions]] on their [[progress]] and their mastery of many of the teaching [[techniques]] which, indeed, are of [[universal]] application. This system of education which we have referred to, is explained rather fully in the [[Urantia Book]]. I would remind you of some details which you might find interesting, particularly in the field of art.

===='''''[[Education]]'''''====
In [[the universe]] scheme of [[education]] students are presented with a task and then they are instructed in the best way to accomplish that task. There is a period of time between the presentation of the task and the best way to do it [[conclusion]] in which the [[students]] use all the [[resources]] and research avenues that they can discover to try to the solve the [[problem]] of accomplishing the task. Then, when they have presented their best [[effort]], only then are they shown what [[experience]] has accumulated in terms of the best [[method]] of accomplishing that task. You see, it is forever true that the [[purpose]] of education in the evolving universes of [[Supremacy]] is the actual gaining of experience in the [[process]]. If a student is immediately shown the best way to do something, many students will, in [[fact]], dutifully apply themselves in that [[manner]]. But some students will be [[frustrated]], not being granted [[opportunity]] to apply their own [[ideas]]. It is somewhat [[flexible]] as to how this works. When you are presenting a task which has no antecedent [[experience]] to suggest any [[structure]], then, of course, you must provide the framework, as in teaching [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonetics phonetics], for example, as in teaching basic art forms, etc. But the [[creativity]] process becomes more and more [[manifest]] as the [[complexity]] of the project increases.

This is also true of [[spiritual]] [[education]]. We have tried to present a basic [[curriculum]] which has [[structure]]. At the same time we have deliberately allowed, [[encouraged]], and requested each of you to spend your [[energy]] and time in [[discovering]] your own [[guidance]]. That is why we have directed you to [[listen]] to the voice of your greatest Instructor, the wonderful [[Mystery Monitor]] which lives in each of your [[minds]].

Virginia: Klarixiska. I would [[appreciate]] it if you came through Bill tonight. I don't [[believe]] that I could feel your [[presence]] or hear your [[thoughts]] as well as I sometimes can. I would [[love]] to hear your message through another person. It will [[encourage]] me.

As I look upon you I behold a [[beautiful]] garden of flowers, fraught with such delicate [[beauty]], such individual [[glory]], such perfect [[balance]] of color and shape as to cause a person to draw their [[breath]] in amazement! We have been watering and fertilizing the ground around you, our little brothers and sisters, for many a year and we have enjoyed the [[sunshine]] of [[the Father]]'s love shining down as we have helped to bring the [[water of life]] to your tender [[roots]].

Tonight I see a beautiful garden with blossoms whose beauty is breathtaking. You are not [[aware]], as we are, of your true [[morontia soul]]s; not aware as we who live in this reality can see you. We do not look mainly upon your physical appearance nor even on your mental abilities, but we are able to see that which is most real in you, your soul natures; and we see these beautiful flowers.

If I could convey just one thing this evening to you all it would be to drop the shields that protect you from the imagined or real fears, especially in regard to your actual potentials. I would urge you to bend your leaves toward the sun so that its warmth can spur your growth. Open your blossoms to the pollination of the bees who bring your sweet essence to others, and in the cross pollination produce new life. Of course you are more than flowers, but there is much similarity.

God's garden is vast and embraces the universe of universes. There are in this garden every conceivable beautiful plant of every description. Each individual person is absolutely unique in the universe; there are no duplicates. All of you are incredibly valuable, immensely important to the whole as well as to yourselves. Your expectations are, of course, your limitations as well. Your are on the whole much better than many of your brothers and sisters at opening your eyes to the vistas of possibilities. And yet, that is the one thing that I would leave with you this evening. Take it from us....you are capable of even more than you can imagine in this, your mortal life! We are honored to be your teachers, to be your companions. We are delighted to share with you what we have learned. May your evening become sweetened by the knowledge of the Love that flows throughout this universe from the very Source at the center, to each and through each to each other and back to that Source.

I have been awarded the last speaking spot. I have been asked to conclude without questions unless someone has an overwhelming and burning desire. Do we have that question or comment?

Virginia: I don't have a question, but your pictures you paint are always so beautiful. To hear it come through another person really does encourage me. That is what I write down in the morning. I really appreciate the pep talk you give me every morning as I listen to you. It truly does help me and it's very nice to hear you come through another person. I do thank you, very much. I have lots of questions but none of them are burning, so I'll wait.

Klarixiska: Thank you, Virginia. You know how much we enjoy each other. I am honoring Isaac's frailty of voice in my statement of concluding the meeting. I and the other teachers thank you, Isaac, for your willingness to allow us to say our piece through you. You do us a great service.

===='''''[[Stillness]]''''', '''''[[Teacher Contact]]'''''====
 +
Lori: I'll just do the one that is burning the hottest, then I'll wait. I am not clear on something about [[quiet time]]. This week I just took time and last week, to have quiet time and just be in total [[silence]] and not listen to my personal teacher. I guess I'm wondering if [[quiet]] time where I engage with Altern is of the same value as quiet time where I am in total [[stillness]], or if I am supposed to do both?

Lori: Alright! I didn't feel like I was shutting you out this week.
   −
Altern: My dear, your question is not academic, but important. The answer is both. That is, your primary objective in silence is to be still and know that God is, and is within you. The purpose of quiet time is to recognize who you really are, that you have both a mortal animal nature and also you have a divine Indweller who someday will fuse with you and become personal through that fusion, even as you become eternal through that fusion. I, as you teacher, am like a coach or good friend, and I cherish our times when we talk. But I do not feel slighted or offended or even disappointed in the sense that you would understand that word when you make time to be in total silence.

Altern: So, have no worry, Lori, about this. Yes, practice the silence. You will, I predict, be hearing words, not from me but from your Thought Adjuster, more and more. This is normal for persons who have reached that first circle and does not indicate that you are losing your mind or that you have become unstable mentally. When one hears from their own Adjuster there is a certainty about it. There is no doubt. I know that you have already experienced that so I encourage you to continue. Does this answer your question?

Lori: Yes, it does and it is such a desirable feeling to get to that point of stillness where you are completely filled with God's love and your Indwelling Spirit; such a beautiful place in your mind. That's what keeps drawing me. When I have finished my full completion of our writings together, just out of laziness of getting a new tablet I decided to be still. Now, it's a real desire, because it is such a wonderful place to be. I thank you for all your encouragement with people and my relationships with strangers and making contact. It's been really helpful to hear you keeping me on track in doing God"s will in my everyday life. Great.

Altern: Thank you for your gratitude, Lori. I, like the other personal teachers present here tonight, consider this to be our most exciting and satisfying assignment so far in our ascendent careers. You know, a good coach not only teaches skills and techniques but does the most good when they provide their students with encouragement, when they give them the belief that they can do it. We know that you all can do it, as it were. So when we tell you this, we are not using flattery or exaggeration. As I was listening to Klarixiska describe you, indeed we all see you as this beautiful flourishing garden. I am sorry that I can't speak longer but Isaac has lost his voice and we must honor him at this point.

Daniel(Bill): My dear friends, our love for you has been returned to us by you in your dedication and your willingness to be such good students. We are training you to be teachers, all of you, in all aspects of your lives. I bring you word from our Sovereign, Christ Michael. He is cognizant of all of you, of course, and desires you to know that he stands behind your work. He holds you in the palm of his hand of affection and our Mother Nebadonia weaves your minds together into the beautiful tapestry of supremacy which is occurring in this part of the universe. Be at peace, all of you. Know that you are always surrounded by a multitude of hosts who are your cheering fans and ardent supporters. Good evening.
