Master Teacher, we come to you today with gratitude and appreciation in our hearts for having new people, a new year, new opportunities and newness of heart and mind that we place before you now, asking that it be fed, watered and nurtured as a flower in a flowerpot would be presented to you, placing ourselves before you, flowers that we are, seeking the nourishment and rays of sun that are necessary for our growth and proclivity.

We place ourselves as such – fragile, vulnerable and subject to what may harm, but with trust and assurance that your protection will not result in such fear.

We are glad always to find ourselves welcomed into your lives, for this is the watering spout that nurtures your growth: this contact between the human and the divine, this connection between the finite and the infinite, this avenue of exchange between the material and the immaterial.

===Lesson===
 
This vision that is reconstituted each time you remember to reconnect with the divine Source reconfirms your higher nature and adds to your faith bank, so that when the vagaries of the material life fail you, you may draw upon the resources and the riches of the spirit to remind you of your on-going nature, and this perspective becomes the overriding reality of your consciousness.

TOMAS:        Well, now, loyal class of eternal students, what shall we do for the remainder of our time together? Let us stretch the muscles of the mind and body in order to reach into the grab bag of perception that will reveal the nature of your needs today, in terms of enterprising interest. (pause) Let not everyone talk at once!

===Dialogue===
 
Elena:            I’ll start. I loved the lessons from both of you, Tomas and Anatolia. They were just beautiful today. But what I wanted to hear your comment on Tomas, was you were talking about being gentle with other souls and nurturing them, and I particularly found that helpful to me. As I may have mentioned before, there is a child from a former marriage, who is not my own child physically but, in a sense, related, who has given me a call so … she has her own concerns on a number of different issues that are difficult for her and somehow your comment about just giving a little bit of encouragement or spreading sunshine onto somebody else’s path was reinforcing, because I frequently find myself – well, not frequently, but – when talking to her I feel in a little bit of a quandary about how much to help her. My own family members caution me about getting too much involved and yet you see a problem that somebody has and so … I guess this isn’t a question yet, other than saying thank you for that, and then if you do have any comment on to what extent, how you decide to what extent to help someone, I guess. Is that a clear enough of a question for you to see what I’m driving toward?

===Closing===
 
TOMAS:        We cannot overlook the animal nature of our students. Indeed, this is a great deal of what goes into the Correcting Time, for many of you have made decisions, based on your animal nature, which have not served you well and which now must be revisited in terms of your new and divine perspective, so that those paths of conviction you have traversed may be reversed, in order for your soul to find its way out of the maze of your own making and back to the divine design.
