Unknown (Nancy): Let us pray. Father, Mother, First Source and Center, Creator of all that is and ever will be, we join with these, our students, in praise of You and in gratitude for the miracle of life and growth in eternity. Help us help Your children to come into better knowledge of themselves that they may remove those obstacles that do not serve them and that interfere with the free flow of Your will. We ask this as the servants of Michael in this wondrous time of correction. So be it.

Daniel (Simeon): This is Daniel. Greetings, my friends. Indeed, it is a pleasure to oversee your discussions this evening, where you contemplate the meaning of our words and ideas. In an attempt to utilize this classroom and the potential herein, we would like to keep you on the edge of your comfort zones. We do this not to see you fail, of course, but to bring forth the potential that lies within you, for the benefit not only of yourself, but for the potential edification of your fellows here in this community. Virginia, my friend, I would ask of you if! you would be willing to lead next week with the initial discussion of the evening, T/Ring for a teacher whom I will not name at this time? Do you think you would be comfortable doing this, my friend?

Virginia: I know I would not be comfortable. (Laughter)

Bob D: All I could hear in response was "Touche’." (More laughter)

Virginia: If the lesson is about 3 sentences long, I can handle it, or I can read one from Klarixiska.

Daniel: In an attempt to broaden the lessons that you receive, it would be an honor if you could serve. I would like to keep you open to the possibilities of growth, as well, for while we can certainly communicate through the "seasoned" T/Rs, there is also a nuance of understanding that can be shared through different vehicles. Therefore it is our feeling that you might be able to both grow from the experience and provide an insight that perhaps could not be shared through the normal pattern. Does this entice you any further to consider risking in this manner?

Virginia: Growth is always enticing for me, Daniel. But whether or not I’m up to it next week, I can’t even say I’ll try, because to try means you’ll do it. So I’ll be open to what might be the situation.

Daniel: Indeed, that is all we can ask for, and certainly within your willingness to receive will we work with you in this regard.

Ken: Well there goes your week. (Laughter and comments.)

Nancy: I want to add something while we’re chatting. I haven’t been sleeping either. The other night I was up and was taken through that head exercise that you shared Pat. It was like my head got turned and then turned another way and then lifted into this incredible stretch and when it was finally over it felt like I was opened up in my neck and shoulders and energy was flowing better. I read somewhere that violin players, or creativity in general was somehow linked to being elongated in the neck and to keep your shoulders down and letting that energy flow. I felt like something like that occurred with me. That’s part of what happened with my Friday nigh! t anyway.

Daniel: And now that I have put you on edge, perhaps I can bring you back into the calm center of spiritual fellowship and bring this session into [[focus]] for the evening.

We are pleased with the [[progress]] that we see. Your attempts to look at the lessons and then to apply them in your lives are increasing. [[Recognize]] that your [[perfection]] is not required now, only your [[desire]] to grow and [[become]] more today than you were previously.

[[The universe]]s are, in a sense, powered by [[motion]], and spiritual energy is also at its highest [[potential]] when it is moving. If you can see yourself as a ball of [[energy]] rather than a physical thing with limits you might realize [[momentum]] is important and the direction you’re flowing generally has a higher degree of importance to the overall growth and [[development]] than the fluctuations that arise when dealing with disturbances in your patterns. For in [[eternity]] you will be as energy moving, almost like a pocket of [[intent]], and this intention flows toward the [[First Source]] and from the First Source in a circular pattern.

At this time in your development you are limited in some [[manner]] by the present stage that you find yourself, but the [[vision]] of these [[limitations]] is increasingly dissipating as you [[progress]] from your mortal life, to your [[morontia life]], to your spiritual life, to your [[eternal]] life where the limitations and your boundaries are no longer so recognizable, where you are seen more by the [[quality]] that you contain rather than any [[quantification]].

I believe, this evening, by sharing with you this idea that you are energy and that this energy will become increasingly more vibrant as you grow and as you move toward the First Source, it can strengthen you at a core level to recognize that you are contained in that circuit of divinity that flows through you to the First Source and back. By holding this vision of your eternal potential may you look at those disturbances in your life in a manner where you can realize that these urges, or instincts, can be smoothed over by turning your intention back to the circuit of divinity.
