And so, even though there may be few of you of like mind, even so, the power that you [[potentially]] have may, through [[creative]] order, bring about that [[impetus]] to alter the [[course]] of [[destiny]]. [[Love]] is more [[contagious]] than [[hate]]. [[Light]] is more powerful than the [[darkness]]. When you begin to work creatively within the divine order of [[the universe]], your chaos makes sense. It's a part of the reconstruction or the reassimilation of those energies which combine together to exalt the [[purpose]] of the infinite, and thus inherently the universe is working with you.

If you think about it, you can [[interpret]] that the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope Pope] has already endorsed a [[Cosmic Consciousness|galactic neighborhood]], in that he has acknowledged the [[existence]] of [[angels]]. And the thing that holds you back, as a race of people, from embracing the cosmic neighborhood as your own back yard, with all its particulars, is the residue of fear and ignorance that [[the universe]] may not be a friendly place after all, and that is based upon your [[mortal]] [[experience]] as having shown you that your immediate environment is not necessarily always a friendly environment, but putting these [[perspectives]] into your overall [[comprehension]] of where we are in terms of planetary evolution, epochal development, it will give you additional [[impetus]] to encourage the concept and to even assume the [[faith]] of others as being not too far removed form your own. It's when you look upon each other as [[enemies]] or as on opposing teams that your obstructions become tangible and problematic. Lead the way. Pave the way, then, into the new dispensation by [[revealing]] your [[relationship]] with [[the universe]].

The [[marriage]] of [[science]] and [[religion]] will come to pass when we are able to feel comfortable that what intelligent [[life]] in [[the universe]] is, is an extension of [[Paradise]], and not an extension of the baser nature of unevolved [[chaos]].

THOROAH: I've learned enough not to overstate my case. I was [[thinking]] along the line of [[chaos]], that it's also a part of a [[perception]] and [[perspective]] sometimes, is it not? I mean, we can go along in an very orderly fashion and then something comes in and disrupts that order, which is basically [[change]], and without realizing it, it is probably a part of a new order that we are going to be moving into but we just don't recognize it as order, at first. We recognize it as change or chaos at first, but then it evolves into order, and then something else will come along and try to disrupt that, and it's a sort of a [[flow]]. But our perspective sometimes makes something seem like it’s [[chaos]] when it might not be.

DOLORES: It is [[mota]], yes. These lessons are only learned as you [[ascend]], even as you ascend in this [[experiential]] existence. For what else is [[growth]] but to assimilate a farther view, a greater grasp of [[reality]]? I'll call [[attention]] to the story of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genesis_flood_narrative the flood]. In that time the records indicated the world was flooded except for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noah%27s_ark Noah and his family] and this [[legend]] has survived through centuries of retelling and still today they search for the remnants of the ark, and we know that the world has not been flooded since it has been inhabited by man. And we only know this through [[revelation]]. And the appreciation dawns that what was true for a certain mental framework serves until such time as the capacity for a greater mental framework is constructed, and then the message is broadened to expand your [[perception]], even the perception of [[the universe]]. So you see how it is that as you pay [[attention]], as you seek to know, you will be given answers, you will be broadened, your perspective will be increased, but this causes certain [[chaos]] in the mental realms until such time as the situation is such that the change is appropriate. And then the old [[structure]] falls and the new structure takes its place. What [[chaos]] that brings into the mind will depend upon how far aroused the mind has become to assimilating [[spirit]] [[values]]. Part of your eternal career is in allowing the ignorant and the untested to fall away, to be replaced by that which is tried and true in a bigger [[reality]].

I'm going to go so far as to say that in one of your human strata [[stages]] of [[development]] you may have enjoyed the [[perception]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Claus Santa Claus] or the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Easter_Bunny Easter Bunny], for a moment or two, but you grew away from that [[understanding]] of [[icon]] to the more sublime realization of the Gift Giver and the Resurrection. It's just a matter of [[soul growth]], spirit comprehension, and certainly while in the beginning it creates great havoc, as you pursue your [[faith]] [[path]], the chaos is lessened because you have experienced time and again that the order that you have come to regard as divine order will resume, in fact has never been out of order, but only has changed scrims in order for you to enact your next [[plateau]] of human drama.

GINNY: I'd like to [[change]] the subject somewhat, quite a bit. And if any other teacher wants to handle this during the [[Christmas]]time I was with a friend of mine. We were talking about the [[911|September 11th disaster]] and as you were talking, Dolores, what you were talking about sort of threw me onto this idea of [[evil]]. I don't know why, but it did. And then I remembered my friend's concern. She looked at me very intently and said, "Well, you know, Ginny, there is evil in the world. You know that, don't you." I was just so taken aback by that [[statement]]. I even forget what I said. I think it was something to the effect that I did not believe (I tried to make it personal, on what my believes were, because I have a tendency to dump my [[beliefs]] on other people). I said that I believed that there was no longer a personified evil in the world, and that I thought that there's a lot that's going wrong in our world that is not really evil, and that people that we call evil, I don't look at as evil, I look at as misguided. And I felt a little sad that she would still be [[attached]] to that personified evil in the world. So I [[hope]] I was able.
