Session

Opening

Monjoronson (Mark TR): Greetings. I am Monjoronson, once again to join your lively discussion, to add my contribution to your rather extensive thought streams. In witnessing your conversations it is obvious that you have, each one, encountered the very realities that have been part of our lesson plans for some time. After having encountered some measure of personal experience with these principles, they then become yours to own and to use as you navigate your way through these arenas of spirit.

Lesson

Truly I witness to you that the nature of your discussions carries morontia tones, and that you are each one digging deeper and deeper into your wells of spiritual awareness and possessing more and more of the truths contained therein. So many good threads for discussion were offered, but I would inject more energy into the thought pattern that was offered around the idea of the use of this transformation of energy that you focused on as healing and the component aspect of that is required in the process of the state of receptivity of the receiver in the process. As you have well stated, it is not that spirit is not there, it is merely that you may be unaware of its presence. It’s not that healing is not possible, it simply may be that you are as of yet are unable to access it. And in this process of discovery of the flow of this healing energy all the way to and through this recipient, it is necessary to embrace the role that the receiver has in completing this circuitry.

It is often discovered among the mortal psyche that there are unknown parameters or conditions established -- I say unknown because they are as a result of your cultural influences, your media representations, your family and friends, your jobs and all of these things attempt to portray to you what is real and what is your condition. So, a life lived among all these influences is conditioned by numerous projections upon you of how things are or at least how things are understood. It takes great faith and trust to lay down, to set aside, this set of preconditions and pre-notions about what is real or genuine to allow there to be room to accept what is as yet unknown but nonetheless real. Each one of you is quite familiar with the things in life that you don’t know, and you fully grant that they are as real as the things you don’t know. Brain surgery exists; you conceive that it is real although you have no direct personal experience with this skill. Likewise there are things that you do not know yet that you do not know, that you have not allowed a place to exist because you have yet to be introduced even to the concept. You are, however, wading into these pools as you discussed in your experiences surrounding healing, and you are discovering through your personal experience that there are parameters that exist. You may not understand how or why, but you are accepting now that they do exist, and this is the first step, to simply accept the reality of such. So it is with this healing circuit. If you do not at first allow there to be room for something that you have yet to contact in your own personal experience, then there is no space to make allowance for such. And as well if you insist on approaching the whole arena with complete understanding you will fall short in your experience. But if you can remain open to potentials that exist, and you can remain open to receiving in the absence of understanding, then you can take the necessary steps, and as a result the understanding comes.

It is very similar to your extensions of faith that have brought you to this hour. It is the faith that extends you into the new arena wherein the understanding is attained. It is the faith in healing that brings you to the arena of the transformation of energy you call healing, and it must be the faith that you rely on in this process of receiving as well. And having demonstrated your faith and as a result of your faith, then receive your confirmation, your rewards for having extended yourself. It is a universal principle that the faith must always come first, and then the acts of faith are apparent, which then bolsters the faith for next time, which is why you have all arrived at this step along the way. You have repeatedly demonstrated the extension of your faith, and it has proved sound, sound enough to take the next step on this staircase. And so it is that we travel together step by step, as in this hour building upon the foundations of understanding and wisdom but extending onto the next step where we will gain more understanding and wisdom before the next step.

Thank you for your attention and your devotion to the lessons and this greater mission before us. I welcome your participation. I allow for others.

Elyon (Jonathan): This is Elyon charging out of the dugout onto the ballfield. I greet you all with a high five. I am going to speak about focused attention and enlarged awareness, and I am going to use your sports as an illustration of my point.

When a batter steps up to the plate and positions himself in the box and readies his body for the pitch, he is one-pointed and focused in his attention. As he has had a few pitches tossed his way, the next one to be received he is singularly focused upon. To be good he mustn’t distract himself with the results of the past pitch. In order to make the connection he ignores all the players in the field and focuses intently upon the approaching ball.

Likewise the pitcher does the same. Regardless that the prior pitch was outside the zone, he winds up anew and throws again, intent upon the catcher’s mitt, intent upon passing that ball through the vulnerable zone where it can be hit to his detriment in order to succeed in passing it by. So the catcher is one-pointed in his focus, not distracted by people in the stands but attentive to the pitcher. He is, all three are, in a primary focus.

The other players are in secondary, reactive, focus as well, awaiting an action. Upon a connection of bat to ball, suddenly there is a shift in awareness and all give attention to everything occurring on the field. This is more greatly illustrated when more batters are on base, as there are more actions occurring once the ball is in play. This is an expanded awareness. It is true with your football, with volleyball; even your racecar drivers are focused upon their car, their movement forward and keenly aware of all others around them.

Some of your emergency situations are likewise the same. You may be focused upon a specific undertaking of your own when a crisis breaks out in the larger arena, and your mind expands to embrace the interactions of many.

Stillness is stepping into the batter’s box. It is placing that one-pointed focus toward God, and you focus exclusively that you may make the connection. But when the embrace is had, when the blend of the divine and the human occurs, you then expand in your awareness to embrace all your fellows. This is the love for God and loving your neighbor as yourself.

We have come here as teachers; we play that role and our purpose is twofold: One, to increase your individual spiritual awareness, orientation, to stimulate your growth drive, but also to enlarge your sense of placement within the world, even your planetary system, that you may more fully be enriched as you live your singular life in this orchestrated harmony with the many about you, with the enlarged awareness of the progress of even the entire local universe. This is a big picture, and often you will find yourself required to focus intently upon the pitched ball and not be distracted by the stands, the stadium filled with people. But it is our hope that you do see yourself integrated into this enlarged arena of players. Single, one-pointed focus and all encompassing expanded awareness may be called two sides of the same coin.

Closing

I will bring a close to my comment and again remind you to undertake batting practice, to sit in silence, to have your quiet time in stillness with God. Thank you.
