WELMEK: Welcome back to another session of instruction and enlightenment. Let us continue with the progression of the elements living, learning and loving. At our last meeting we took the element of learning to live and explored it in further depth. Today, let us discuss learning to love. Again, a friend has come to and said, “I am having a problem in my relationships with others. I do not feel love the way I think I should.” What advice would you impart to this friend? Think about the element learning to love. Still your mind, seek guidance from your Adjuster and we will resume.

WELMEK: Each of you has raised some interesting points. On the one hand, there is the feeling of a naturalness, is it not, that the Father’s love flows out of you and it becomes easy to express to others regardless of how another person may react or perceive you. On the other hand, as S indicated, there is the component of truth, or the concept of the nature of love—where does this love come from, how can you best come to express it in your life? Both of these elements must be in place in order for the process to unfold or flow out of you in a natural state. Most humans on this world have yet to understand that dynamic relationship that exists between the individual and the Father. Hence the ability to let that love flow to naturally into another is modified and sometimes is unable to happen at all.

But to get to that state of mind is a process that must be developed. The trust that God loves you and the deep understanding of this is what is missing from your brothers and sisters. That is why the concept of God as a loving individual, as compassionate, tender, nurturing, patient, tolerant, must be ingrained into the individual’s mind in order to help feel that love. It is not enough to just feel the Father’s love, it is just as important to know of the Father’s love-- to begin that faith-trust process that builds the conceptual framework around which the flow can begin to flow. Learning to love is a two-way dynamic. You must feel the love, but you must also be certain it is there for you. And that can only come from knowing the concept of a loving compassionate spiritual parent.

The challenge then becomes how do you show this to another person? You cannot change their mind or their concept of God. But you can indeed share love with them. In time it is hoped that by your actions, and when they see how you live and when they know that comes from faith in the Father, it may plant a seed in their minds. Continue to love them, continue to water that seed with your compassion and understanding. Show your empathy with them and help them in whatever way you can to develop that concept – to shine the Father’ s love on that seed. Allow that seed to germinate its gifts. Do you have any other comments or questions?

Question from student about how this flow of love and drawing spiritual riches to you and how to draw material things to you. Welmek’s response:

Question from student about how this flow of love and drawing spiritual riches to you and how to draw material things to you. Welmek’s response:

It is a simple answer, but to do it especially when there is not a habit does require some effort. Tell them that being happy and being fulfilled does require effort, it is not something that just naturally happens because there is such great disparity between the ego, the self-centeredness of human nature, and the spirit—the altruistic selflessness—that true happiness feeds upon. When an individual starts on the spiritual path, they are slowly trying to divest themselves of this animal ego towards their truer spiritual nature that is resident within their spirit fragment. And you know from your path what an effort this is. Do they want to be happy? Do they be fulfilled? Then they must try…they must make the effort…they must put forth some spiritual energy, mental energy and emotional energy to achieve this. Does this help?
