Changes

Given the [[fact]] of a continual [[connection]] of [[the Father]] to your being, [[personality]], and [[soul]], and given the fact that your [[mind]] and [[body]] are designed for [[motion]], you may practice stillness dynamically. [[Your text]] tells you that religion must act. It must do something, for the Father has [[manifested]] Himself from the far stretches of [[eternity]] [[past]], from that time before time before eternity wherein God is wholly complete, fully contained. The age we [[experience]] is this bursting forth of God into [[dynamic]] interrelationship. Therefore you will stir, you will think continually; this is the [[desire]] of the Father to be moving about in [[the universe]]. To calm the [[mind]], to [[relax]] the [[body]], is for you to retrace the [[steps]] of the [[revelation]], the [[emanation]], the manifestation of God, to come back to that point of the beginning of all things in your own [[microcosm]] and know this Divine Being and to realize this [[center]] of all things is the center of yourself.

To the [[ego]] [[the universe]] revolves around itself. In [[reality]] you revolve around [[the Father]]. Given enough time practicing [[stillness]] you will find that stillness is always as the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane#Eye_and_center eye of a hurricane], and you can be traveling through your days with 140 mile an hour winds taking you on into numerous activities. But if you spend deliberately time in [[quiet]] you will [[discern]] that eye of the hurricane, that peaceful center, within you. Do not fight the activity, for would a hurricane be a hurricane without its calm center? [[Accept]] the natural construction of your [[being]] and be [[creative]] in developing [[techniques]] which allow you to strike a [[balance]] between [[dynamism]] and [[stillness]]. Stillness brings you to the awareness of [[the Father]]. The activities of your life bring the Father to the awareness of the [[human being]].

Tom: As we get older at least some of our [[minds]] seem to diminish like our [[bodies]] whether through improper [[diet]] or lack of use of the mind or overuse of it or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substance_abuse substance abuse]. [[Our text]] in the [[Rodan]] papers says [[the Master]]'s worshipful [[practice]] brings relaxation that [[renews]] the mind. Does the mind need renewing? I thought the mind was a circuit from the [[Mother Spirit]] that's perfect. It's the [[brain]] that's not functioning. Is [[stillness]] able to renew the mind to overcome deterioration?

Jessona: It is helpful. I must place it in [[context]] in that your [[mind]] has a physical receptive [[mechanism]] that is your [[brain]] which is intimately associated with all else that is your [[body]], and it is the body which is first to run out of its [[energy]], its life force, to deteriorate. Since the mind must use this receptive organ to engage into your physical form and enact events [[initiated]] by your will in this world, it becomes hampered as the [[physical]] dimension of your mental, [[mindal]], makeup declines. [[Relaxation]] [[renews]] the mind because it refreshes the brain. When the [[neural]] [[circuits]] are able to reset themselves through [[passivity]], through the release of the tension of grappling with [[thought]] and [[method]] and events and their [[coordination]], the mind is able to turn away from the outward [[focus]] and to be attracted to the inner impulses of the [[Divine Monitor]]. Relaxation in a sense closes the door on the [[noise]] of the outer world so that you can hear the [[subtle]] [[sounds]] of the [[spirit]] dimension.
