Let me say too that sometimes when we get together, very little is on a spiritual plane. Very much of it is on an emotional level because that is where you are in your psyche and it is very important for any teacher to meet the student where the student is. It would do no good for me to try to talk to you about trigonometry if you are still trying to learn to multiply and divide.

Furthermore, there is some concern about what comes through, as to whether it is good enough or not good enough - by whose standards I don’t know, but assuredly everyone has standards and everyone will ascertain for him or herself what transcripts, what transmissions, what teachers, what T/Rs, what lessons, what concepts are compatible and which ones are “old hat.”  Some may consider some lessons too ‘far out’ to be believed while some may feel the lesson is too ho-hum to be endured.  But there is overall value in the experience, even though all these possibilities are in existence. Uppermost is probably the idea itself, the concept itself, that we can engage one with the other. You come to these gathering to lift yourself up and that is priceless.

The experience that happens to you as you open yourself, as you open your mind and your spirit to celestial helpers, divine ideas, encouragement, assurance, and sometimes actual information, is a testimony to your faith, to your willingness to grow, to be open to the possibility that truth can come to you in many guises.

It is a tremendous experience for the T/R because it provokes the T/R to be in trust of the process itself.  It also offers a discipline because the T/R must set his or herself aside in order for the persona of the concept to come through.  Making oneself deliberately small is a good discipline for many occasions, but it also enables the opportunity to experience by proxy the teaching techniques of their elders.  This is a tremendous opportunity for those of you who take up the task of learning to receive and transmit from this higher plane of consciousness whereon we meet and mingle and commune.

Now that we have gotten here, I am able to commence with a lesson.  There is interference on the line, however, that is distracting, and so I will rein in my T/R and apply the disciplines such that we can proceed.
