Subject: The Third Lesson on The Second Mile

 

August 01, 2004

 

Opening Prayer: KLARIXISKA (Virginia): Father who does see all, we thank You that our very existence is the proof that You ?? We would pray that as we would meet together tonight to hear the teachers that you would give us those ideas, concepts, motivations, feelings that would cause us to creatively seek Your will in the mundane. We thank You that Your work is the service to all mankind. We thank You that Your work has its own rewards. We thank You that to know Your will means we will find the joy that has been mentioned to transform Your world. Amen

AARON: I knew we could coax this question out of you if sufficiently prodded. Thank you for indeed this is the scenario that we would like to clarify. For one can’t truly be in the second-miler club if they are consciously trying to impress others even with the best of intentions.

Originality and creativity will manifest out of your applying yourself with no particular regard for anything but the exploration of the situation to manifest your talents in that particular instance or environment. So truly, you are focused not so much on others, and not so much even on yourself, but on the situation itself and how to bring the highest out of the potentials in a situation, and you all do this in various situations in life. When you survey the room and decide how you will go about dusting, for example, you unconsciously many times come up with a plan that will bring forth the most effective use of your time in doing so, if time is the element.

In other situations, you look to produce the most enjoyment out of a situation, either for yourself or others, or all concerned, but the emphasis is on the situation rather than how it will affect others or even yourself. And although it is not healthy to go with the conscious desire of trying to change the behavior of others, to recognize that you are a part of an integral universe is important and that your actions in your small area of the universe that you exist in are important to the overall scheme and development of the Supreme. For if you can recognize your connection to all other beings, it helps to enable you in your own efforts however small they may seem to you at any given time. So recognizing that you do have an influence is good, but trying to conscious! ly influence others behaviors will generally bring about more stress than productivity in the long term. Has this clarified your understanding my friend?

Pat: Yes, that has helped and I think I am beginning to see glimpses of the realization that I am a part of a universe, and also it was helpful what you said about the project or whatever that you are trying to do your best in separating another person and separating yourself from the project and that is where that creativity comes in? Is that correct?

AARON: And yes, we do hold the greatest potential as the conclusion rather than thinking of negative potentials. For the best way to achieve at your highest levels is to portray for you the highest perspective and beckon you to follow that prospective. I sense that we should wrap up this evening’s discussion. If we could stand for final prayer, Daniel would be glad to lead us all.

DANIEL: This is Daniel. Let us pray.

DANIEL: This is Daniel. Let us pray.

May these words which come from the loving hearts of our Creators and ourselves be taken to heart by our students as they seek to live their lives following Your will, O Universal Father. Be with us all now as we go about our business this week seeking to serve You.
