===='''''[[Trust]]'''''====

Student: Welmek, I had a [[feeling]] that last week I was [[thinking]] of trusting someone in a [[passive]] sense, like an [[evaluation]] that you have to make in different situations. And I recalled that in [[Jesus]]' life here, one of the most strange words they use to describe Jesus' behavior was [[aggressive]]. He was a very aggressive person. And I thought well so was [[Ghandi]]. He had to change the whole [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_independence_movement relationship of India and England]. So it occurred to me that there's a kind of [[trust]] that's actually active, it's an extension. You extend trust, almost like [[faith]], acting on the [[evidence]] of things not seen. Trust is this extension; it's like a gift, a [[generosity]] that you extend to others before it's actually warranted.

Welmek: And I would also say that as you will see from tonight's [[exercise]], it is this dynamic activation through any encounter, whether it is through a life situation or in [[relationship]] to another person, that you find a new level of [[awareness]], and I would say, to some degree, excitement and [[adventure]] to life. You are, as you say, giving the situation the benefit of a [[doubt]]; that it is going work out. And, all things work to the good. Just like in a human [[relationship]], if you [[trust]] that individual, you allow them to gain a greater sense of [[confidence]] in themselves. And so things will work out for the good of all. Are there any other comments before we continue with our experience?

Student: Yes! Yes, which is really expanding my trust and deepening my [[faith]]. Believing in myself and my oneness with [[the universe]] and with God. (Thank you.)

Student: Welmek, I feel I had a religious [[experience]] this [[morning]] on the way into work. Partly because it was very early and it seemed like it was a combination of my [[guardian angel]] urging me to [[pray]], the beautiful [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aria arias] honoring [[Jesus]] on the radio, and my [[Thought Adjuster]] coupled with the [[Spirit of Truth]]. And it created a sense of peace that surpassed all [[understanding]] that's so often mentioned and the calming and the clearing up of the mental cobwebs was palpable as well as even my [[physical]] cold [[symptoms]] and all at once. It was really, really satisfying.

Welmek: And what do you now [[experience]] in the expansion of the [[light]] in this [[exercise]]? Would you say it is along these lines?
