MERIUM: I am going to take you on a rendezvous with one of your favorite [[characters]] in [[literature]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice_in_Wonderland Alice in Wonderland]. I lapse thus, as it is too good a [[comparison]] to overlook. Do you recall, those of you who have seen this story depicted in [[film]], the charming scene in the garden where the various flowers were conversing and remarking about what they saw in their midst? I have a picture here in my expanded [[consciousness]] to offer you, to see how it is that you are all "something" [[growing]] in the [[garden]].

You've seen this before. We have spoken to you about it before, but these are lessons that are being learned again and again as you upstep your [[ability]] to comprehend the [[value]] therein. Do you remember, for instance, a patch of flowers that were quite grand, Iris perhaps, and they were talking about the superfluous posies and the seedy wildflowers. But look closely at those haughty Iris, and watch [[the Master]] enter the garden. Watch him pass by these flower beds and see what happens to those haughty Iris. They are [[humbled]] in his [[presence]] and they bow their heads in [[gratitude]] of being one of the many flowers honored to grow in his garden. I bring this [[analogy]] to you today because there is a stir about the various flowers growing in [[the Father]]'s [[garden]], not only your little [[culture]], but in the global climate as well. The extent to which you are able to learn to [[accept]] and appreciate [[differences]] in your various natures, is the [[reality]] which you will introduce into the [[ether]]s of your world that will enable your combatant countries, as a result of their many different religious [[foundations]], to begin to [[respect]] the insignificant posies and the seedy wildflowers as well as the stately Iris.
