TOMAS: Yes. There is no doubt in my mind that any one of you would go to nearly any lengths to support that which was Beautiful, True and Good in your mind. And this does establish you as reasonable human beings. I am simply asking you to become Superhuman.

Elena: Well, that is the intention, I mean I do want to convey that perfection. Like in today’s lesson, I forget whether it was you or Anatolia said that … well, it was Anatolia – it was the rain and what came after the rain…and each circumstance that we were given had fruits to come from each one of those, that may not be evident at that particular time but with hindsight or further looking at it had things that would flower and emerge.

So actually this is good for me because each one of your perspectives has provided me with that, and instead of just being hurt, Paula’s help of trying to bolster me up a little bit, has kind of helped separate me from the hurt, too. So this is extremely helpful. It really is. Each one of you and certainly Anatolia and you, too, Tomas. The Diplomacy and the need to learn further so that I can be more effective is certainly my aim.

TOMAS: There is also something to be said for Assessment of a situation as compared to pre-judging a situation. If you intend to pre-judge a situation before you have even beheld it, you have closed out the possibility of Joy as well as pain. But to have experienced the pain and said, "I don’t want to experience that again," you are not coming from a negatively prejudiced point of view. You have experienced and thus you are coming from a point of experience. And yet as we discussed, in the ever-changing, ever-growing, ever-expanding, ever-developing, ever-illuminating Life that you are living in the Spirit – while in the flesh – you are able, at any time at any moment on any day, to discard the Realities that were effective in former times for the New Reality to present itself today.

And so the Path includes a constant flow of forgiveness – forgiveness for the Ignorance that is inherent in an evolving world. Not only your Ignorance but Other’s Ignorance. It is innate in such a life on such a planet. Yet, your consistent reaching for that which is True and Beautiful and Good, in you and in your fellows, is the most effective tool to thwart the darkness and the Ignorance that is often the Prevalent Reality.

When we meet again we will continue our [[rapport]], and yet I feel our afternoon has peaked and is waning. In these waning moments of our [[sanctuary]], have you any other matters at hand to bring to our [[attention]]?
