TOMAS: Amen and hello. This is Tomas, and the equipment is like your piano, Elena, unused and therefore squeaky. Let's 'crank it up' and work the squeak out so that we can hear undistorted [[beauty]] in the notes to follow.

Your [[perspective]] on our assemblage, Matthew, is from the human [[standpoint]], for surely you would be astounded to see how many are here in [[truth]]. As you say, Angus, in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Mann_%28director%29 Michael Mann]'s song, " 'My Unseen Friends' are everywhere!' and we have many here today to enjoy you in your gathering and as you join forces to lift up your [[consciousness]] to meet those peaks of [[attainment]] that bring you into the [[morontia]] sphere of [[thought]] and potential [[reality]]. This way of bridging the spirit and the material results in the morontial way of life that will be known to you in time as [[light and life]]. For after all, once a planet has attained light and life, its citizens are no longer required to ascend through the [[mansion worlds]], inasmuch as they have already attained that learning in their native sphere.

And so this is one of the goals of the [[Teaching Mission]], certainly, but we cannot [[grow]] as a planetary consciousness until such time as we have a certain [[grid]] work stretched the panoply of space, joining you with your fellow men and women the world over, to exalt the [[brotherhood]] of man under the [[Fatherhood of God]] and let these morontial [[values]] prevail as the preferred reality to the prominent/predominant reality which is the material [[legacy]] - that material legacy which is sorely flawed. But as we are aware, this very condition is what [[stimulates]] our [[desire]] to be of [[service]]. As it is said, difficulties only stimulate the sons and daughters of the living God. Rather than lay down beside your [[problem]], you take up your bed and walk -- even walking the second mile, in order to serve the greater [[reality]] which [[lures]] you forward.

Angus: I would like to defend . .. if that's the right word. - Jack's presentation. It was kind of like a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veteran's_Day Veteran's Day] speech about a month early. I really think it's important for us to know that we have someone else that can identify with our [[struggle]], that are, indeed, here - although we can't see them - and are like us, as compared to everyone else in [[the universe]] and most of our other unseen friends. The [[midwayers]] are the [[forerunners]]. They, like us, began their [[existence]] here on [[this planet]], and I don't know that there are any other [[entities]] that have that distinction, and so it's nice to know that we had those veterans, our cousins, and that they are there. They are real. And we do owe them something. And it's not unlike what we owe the veterans of our own struggles in the human sense. So I appreciate being reminded that there are close entities that we may not be able to see, that we have a [[responsibility]] and a [[loyalty]] to. Thank you, Jack.

TOMAS: And I will add that, from our [[perspective]], these workers had a tremendous part to play in the [[textual]] [[revelation]] inasmuch as they wrote the [[Part 4|life and teachings of Jesus]], without which you would not have been so impressed as to have found that much merit to what could be otherwise regarded as a [[science fiction]] [[cosmology]]. The midwayers, in [[loyalty]] to this plane, will not be misled again, will always seek the Source for [[confirmation]] of what they should do.
