[Dear Folks, Happy Thanksgiving! Here is Michael's message (and for us, a very deep experience) on how to find our way back home. Although I am aware of what I'm saying as I say it, I have little memory of it afterwards, so it was only later, during playback and transcription, that I could see the irony of my trying to penetrate what Michael had just said was impenetrable! At least I did have some small sense of this at the time. I just thought it was intrinsically part of the (?????) itself. Jerry -]

Dear Michael and Mother Spirit, We get together again in an enduring friendship and with deep respect to hear Your words of spiritual insight and truth. These unburden our hearts of misperceived mistakes and everyday fears, and coax us forward, ever pointing the way. Now that it’s getting near the end of another year, we ask You to help us reflect on this bountiful harvest of all the ideas and important ideals You’ve given us to carry us through the winter and on into another bright spring. Amen.

Good evening, My children. This is your Creator Father Michael - your human brother - your very dear friend. Once again I welcome you to be in My peace. Let it be as a light buoyant sea in which you float effortlessly, relaxing all your cares and troubles, all your worries and concerns. Let these all fade away awhile. The good duties and work of your lives will come around again soon enough. I want you to learn, My dear children, the value of rest - the spirit of letting go completely with no fear, no anxiety. Just let go, and let yourself slowly…slowly…drift to a complete stop… Just let your breathing breathe itself. Let your heart beat itself. Let emptiness surround you, and note how our Father inhabits the emptiness.

===Lesson===
 
This is also His peace. This is His living, buoyant body in which we all float eternally sustained. It is good to return here, My sons, to remind ourselves that this is where we started long, long ago, and – forever - just a moment ago, for there is a part of us that lives here, always. There is no separation - here. This is the true Source of our life. We are always connected with our Father because He wills it to be so. Breathe deeply of His peace. It is a connection, Person to person. When you return here from your busy activities during the day, you reconnect your consciousness to its Source, to Consciousness itself.

* '''''Consciousness'''''
 
This is a sea - a sparkling, scintillating ocean of consciousness, a bright spiritual illumination penetrating everywhere, that we find by letting go of everything else. It’s like returning home to a place that never leaves us, no matter how far away we stray. Never fear to return home. Never let anything stand between you and our Father. Never fear to let everything in your life come to a complete stop… You see, My children? When you let yourself come to a complete stop, and rest in stillness, that which is extraneous is given a chance to simply fall away. That which is essential, in the sense of your true essence, will begin again of itself - and our Father, for once again we are reminded and made mindful, at times like these, that it is He who recreates us anew.

===Dialogue===
 
Student (with difficulty): Yes, Michael, in a sense this place You have taken us tonight - to experience our completeness - is God’s reality for each and every one of us. You have said before this is the only reality, and You are always here - here and now, even amidst all the turmoil and chaos that goes on all around us. And I guess what prevents human beings from experiencing this reality in its totality is, ah, misperceptions, and our beliefs, our fears, our attitudes. In fact there’s layers of this same reality. I have been greatly pondering these - this idea - and my desire to use it to the best of my ability. And now I have a great opening for that inception: the idea that I am complete, right here and now, in the eyes of God, opens up a whole new experience of who I am, and who each and every person is. In a sense it’s like knowing the truth of that person, knowing or understanding the reality of that person - Gods’ reality - honoring them at the place they’re at, at this moment - what you have expressed to us in the past, as well.
