TOMAS:        Glorious day to you all. I am Tomas.

TOMAS:        [[Glorious]] day to you all. I am Tomas.

GROUP:        Greetings, Tomas.

GROUP:        Greetings, Tomas.

TOMAS:        Today is the day we acknowledge Jesus riding upon the ass, and also today is a day, the day that we begin a new season, and as in any new season and new beginnings, it will take a while to get into the flow, the harmony. Your session today is very much like the new season of the orchestra -- new players, new energies, and new expectations of what to play. Your instruments are rusty and your capacity is nearly deleterious, so now that we are all here in the orchestra pit, we are going to focus our attention on The Master Conductor and allow Him to introduce to us some new music.

TOMAS:        Today is the day we acknowledge [[Paper 171 - On the Way to Jerusalem|Jesus riding upon the ass]], and also today is a day, the day that we begin a new [[season]], and as in any new season and new beginnings, it will take a while to get into the [[flow]], the [[harmony]]. Your session today is very much like the new season of the [[orchestra]] -- new players, new [[energies]], and new [[expectations]] of what to play. Your instruments are rusty and your capacity is nearly deleterious, so now that we are all here in the orchestra pit, we are going to [[focus]] our attention on The Master Conductor and allow Him to introduce to us some new music.

What a wonderful Paper you have been studying, learning about the music of the spheres and about harmony and the like. Wonderful lessons to take to heart, for now you know that true music is not limited to notes and noise, but is in fact also a configuration of energy, and in this new season I will remind you again of the merits of beginning your sessions with a moment of stillness in which you may harmonize your own soul with the chords of Paradise, for it is in this solemnity of trust that you will play your notes when you are given your cue; we will be able to practice and become perfect in making music and singing songs for The Master; in giving forth our music we will become a siren song for those who hear with ears to hear our melodies.

I would like to give Merium an opportunity to exercise you somewhat with a piece. I will play second fiddle today. Merium, I know you are ready to go. I await your baton.

MERIUM:      My baton this afternoon is a daffodil, and I do greet you all and appreciate your coming because the temptation to go out and run, play with the dog, and wipe down the windows is very strong. I would like to captivate– I almost have a butterfly net here– the word "peace" and Tomas said I would produce a piece. P-i-e-c-e or p-e-a-c-e? I would like to bring you a piece that will allude to peace.
