* Elyon (Jonathan TR): Greetings again in spirit and circuit. This is your teacher friend Elyon. I have a few words to share regarding prayer. It is also a circuit, a form more familiar to your peoples than some of the other communication lines that are available to those like myself.

Prayer, while clothed in words, is in actuality an energy line, a connection. It is by your use of language that your mind increases its sensitivity to this connection with spirit. Forming thought into sentence structure draws open the membrane between pure spirit and the material realm.

These are my words. I hope you find them of worth in your meditation and reflection.

Evelyn: We are told God knows our thoughts, He is already there, that it is not important that they be put into words. So, the benefit is more for us to verbalize or compose our thoughts?

* Elyon: Yes. It is a focalizer to the mind. It is a lubricant for feeling. It softens the personality by redirecting attention. This, by the way, is not to discount the value of the content of the prayer, for the words shape what is meant by the personality reaching to God. Soul longing can be hard to clearly discern in the mind. Framing thought structure in prayer is like laying a sheet over an invisible object to make it appear to the mind. Then the mind is able to function in harmony with your deeper self, your soul, your personality, and the spirit presence. The mind resides at the membrane between spirit and matter. Words in prayer may be likened to the beating of a drum that signals from one side to the other.

* Olfana (Ginny): Good morning, this is Olfana. I greet you at this time of slowing down, reaping the fruits of your labor; a calming down, so to speak, of your summer activities and energy. As you know, it requires both to be in a balanced state of change.

It is important to reflect upon how necessary it is to rest, to reflect, to gather the seeds, so to speak, to sit back and reflect upon the fruit of your labor and to begin to take more time to assess your life. Although things seem to be waning, things are losing energy, they are disintegrating in nature; it is also an important time to look at ourselves at this time and appreciate our maturity as well as our vulnerability, for indeed it is a mature time of year when we see in full bloom the results of our efforts to bring to fruition all the wonderful fruits of the land.

As you do your fall chores with your plants and vegetables, fruits, be reminded that all these qualities reflect your nature also. Appreciate it all. It is all necessary. I encourage you to be grateful for each day, whether it be sunny or rainy, as each day you view opportunities to advance in spirit. Gather your fruits and enjoy.
