Changes

Paulo was discussing how time follows [[time]] in the extension of [[eternity]], but in the [[revolution]], there are many [[resurrections]]. This revolving experience of life is [[cyclic]]. It is advancing, also, yes, but in time it's not always easy to see that you are advancing, and thus often you become [[limited]] in your [[perspective]]. You become dense, as your environment, and you become [[isolated]] in your tendency to pull yourself secure around yourself, in order to sustain some sense of [[comfort]] in what you might otherwise regard as isolation or at least a certain relevancy as to isolation since you are not always in accord and you are not always in [[harmony]], and thus you sometimes lose sight of the fact that [[the Master]] can be there with you if you but will him to be.

But, getting back to this part of your [[growth]] that entails a deep [[slumber]], psychic rest, emotional stand-still, spiritual dormancy, [[winter]] [[doldrums]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Night_of_the_Soul dark night of the soul], [[oblivion]]. You pull the covers over your head and say, "[[wake]] me in the [[morning]]." The seasons all naturally provide this sense of alteration between the dormant state and the active state. Thus the tulip bulbs and daffodils remain asleep and certain [[animals]] do [[hibernate]] throughout the course of [[winter]] and in the [[spring]] feel these stirrings, but [[science]] has discovered ways to trick Mother Nature. Certain plants and seeds are now induced to sprout and blossom after having been frozen artificially, for they feel they have gone through winter and now they can bloom.

This clever tactic on the part of [[science]] is something that you would all do well to [[emulate]] in your own periods of [[dormancy]] wherein you become lethargic as a result of your relative [[growth]] and your ability to [[rationalize]] your non-growth such that you [[become]] stuck in a place of inaction, not dreary enough to feel [[anxious]] about and not [[happy]] enough to be [[contagious]]. Sometimes it is necessary for you to trick yourself into a [[recognition]] of the reality of time passing and growth taking place. Your growth is so [[subtle]], so difficult to measure. The lessons you have learned in these [[Melchizedek classes]] are difficult of definition. You cannot account for your [[time]] by certificates or [[degrees]] but by [[experiential]] [[growth]] and certain [[wisdom]] as a result of [[cosmic]] [[problem solving]].
