==Greed==

Fear of dying is at the heart of greed. This fear of non-being is the cause of wealth accumulation and unjust treatment of others. Those who are driven to accumulate are endeavoring to leave behind a legacy, a false immortality. - [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=1995-06-04-Death#Near_Death_Experience.2C_Fear.2C_Greed Ham]

==Laughter==

−

The function of laughter is to adjust the emotional balance when emotional stress has taken over or been stretched. Laughter is the window of opportunity in which one can view oneself and one's situation in perspective. The need for laughter is as universal as the need for acceptance, and laughter can facilitate acceptance as well. When the tension is especially high, the need for laughter is greatest. - Ham

==Mindal Balance==

−

Many of you have discovered one thing which you excelled at and clung to it for your advancement in life. I say to you now that the need is there to explore all your mental abilities in order to know a fuller expression of your being. You who are creative writers have neglected to cultivate the mathematical, analytical and logical. You who are scientists have emphasized these traits and sometimes neglected the wonder of artistic creation. I urge you not to sacrifice any side of yourself. Rather take some time, specifically in order to cultivate the unexplored of your mental endowment. Great satisfaction is found when you can realize that you are capable of creative expression. These two balances in the mindal pattern are greatly enhanced through the gradual expansion of mind which comes through spiritual growth. - Ham

==Sex Equality==

−

The modern idea of sex equality is beautiful and worthy of an expanding civilization, but it is not found in nature. When might is right, man lords it over woman; when more justice, peace, and fairness prevail, she gradually emerges from slavery and obscurity. Woman's social position has generally varied inversely with the degree of militarism in any nation or age. - Chief of Seraphim

==Times of Change==

−

There is a great sense in the world today of some big impending event. I tell you plainly and clearly, this event is underway with the flooding of this planet in light, in love, in peace. Those with spiritual eyes to see will see, with the ears to hear will hear, and with faith in their hearts will choose, act, and be the new direction, the new mode of operation. There will be those who forsake this choice because it represents too great a change, too much unknown, and that is the freedom given to them by the Creators, but all those who desire to be born of the spirit will have no trouble in simply going towards the light and choosing it. This is the majesty of the times in which you live.- Luminerion

==Beauty==

−

As the soul grows so does the beauty of the soul. In your world, beauty is not so commonly recognized. The ugliness of disastrous events seem to be of more interest. Without focus on the beautiful and deeply meaningful things in this life, acknowledgment of beauty dwindles, but recognition for the beautiful shared with another is the way beauty grows. - Abraham

==Healing Old Wounds==

There are some wounds which take years for healing. And you may think this wound is closed and its healing complete, when in reality, it is only resting and is awaiting another opportunity for your psyche to connect with it and discover anew the old pain, the old grief. There is never any magic formula that bypasses the important function of time. Only experience past suffering and pain with another level of understanding.

−

Each level of understanding that you reach in your lifetimes requires another healing level for old wounds, for it is the hurt places of the psyche which cause imbalance and require the most growth. As a wound on the flesh requires new growth or repair, so do the psychic wounds inevitably seek attention of the mind. This is not a spiritual setback when you discover that you're not really over something that you thought you were. This is simply self-revelation so you can see where healing is required and you are wiser for this knowledge. - Ham

==Forgiveness==

The position that yields the greatest reward and most difficult to maintain is the heart held in the posture of forgiveness. - Yogananda

==Tragedy==

−

Those of you who understand the spiritual aspect as being different from the mortal know intuitively that whatever happens on this plane, while it has potential for human tragedy, can, on the spiritual plane, be overcome and seen differently.- Daniel

==Home Base==

The conscious level is like your home base. You can move above it into the superconscious realm of pure spiritual communion or below it into the realm of animal fear. This home base continues gradually to rise throughout your lifetime search for God. Increasingly does the mind grow through spirit identification so that this base expands as it rises into each new level.

−

The fruits of the spirit emerge from this process, and all of these are reflections of a balanced mind. Wisdom grows in this environment as a balanced mind is immune to the extremes which plague the immature levels of mind. So it is, maturity, wisdom, and a balanced mind are spiritual developments that are always attended by increasing joy. - Ham

==Silence==

It is far too easy for the social animal to jump in with amenities to cover the awkward moment when a soul is grappling in silence for understanding. It is not necessary that we fill every hole with a joyful noise! It is equally important that we begin to perceive the deeper voices, the more resonant sound of souls at work in silence. - [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=1995-12-09-UB_Textbook,_ACIM,_White_Buffalo#Soul Tomas]

−

==Gender==

−

Understanding grows when minds are sympathetic. There may not be complete understanding, but harmonious relationships are certainly attainable. Sympathetic, mutual and non-judgmental attitudes are essential in this love growth. The strength of man is logic, and the logical thought pattern is somewhat inimical to the strength of woman, which is intuition. She, in many ways, finds it easier to follow God, for His communication is often in that intuitive realm. This is a great and noble strength which should be respected in this world, although it is largely unrecognized. These two complementary, yet different, mindsets are wonderfully expressive in union of God and creation. In union, there is tremendous and entire nobility of expression between both men and women together. This union is sublime, and stronger and more beautiful than either one separate. It is meant to be so. - Ham

==Faith==

Faith rings like a silent bell in the heart. It resonates with the vibrations of divine love. Faith is never an unconscious effort. It requires conscious attention to the perception of all we understand, coupled with our trust that the design of events is woven with a greater beauty than earthly perceptions can comprehend.

−

Faith efforts are those which bear the creator's mark. They are the motivation of the spirit coupled with our free will heart's desire. How often do we truly reach out to the experiences of life with this "hallmark of spirit" as our guiding light? Such efforts ennoble our character greatly. - Tarkas

==Progress==

Platitudes abound on your planet -- good intention is mouthed while self-serving ends are practiced. Our goal is to change the balance of the scale -- to help humans sincerely work for and build love and right intentions for their siblings. The planet is slow to move from awareness to practice.

Line 304: Line 302:

It does take effort. You must change a lifetime of old thinking and start afresh. Yes, continue to wash away and throw away . .. whenever necessary. Acknowledge 'bad thinking' and mistakes -- they are inevitable and to be expected -- but they cannot be continued if progress is to be made. Excuses are, after all, still excuses, and the very word indicates awareness of your 'wrong' position and, if not carefully monitored, adherence and a holding-on to these actions.

−

Thank you for your willingness to look at your position and ask for help. We sing your praises because that is God's way -- He sees love and good in your very being -- in him you grow as He, in you, evolves. It is truly a conundrum and a puzzle . .. and yet the very fact creates the unending circle without which we would not be. You are all in the circle, your position is key as is everyone's -- and each soul you touch, each mind you awaken (or even nudge) helps us all move a tiny bit further along our wondrous path. - Oren

==The Path==

−

The spiritual path is not a river in which you float idly taking in the scenery, no. The spiritual path is more like a hiking trail in which you must overcome obstacles to move further; debris must be removed and all your attention must be focused on the next step. When focus has been interrupted there can occur a slight stumbling, but you know well that it doesn't take much to dust yourself and proceed. - Abraham

==Dreams to Realize==

Opportunity is like weaving a skein of fabric. Your individual threads are interwoven with each other. The individual idea or research or human contact or creation are all interwoven with each other creating the fabric that is opportunity and is your life. This fabric is what draws the attention of others who can use your life's work in a greater garment.

Line 314: Line 312:

Don't be discouraged when you consider your past creations, for this gradually fades from sight as you weave newer and greater and more wondrous ideas into your fabric. One's life pattern enlists ideas in all its creation. The wise man says, you are what you think, and I say you become in the direction you are thinking. You must understand though that you cannot project yourself through thought ahead of your material, your weaving. Each thread must find its place; you cannot miraculously become something completely different from what you are just by wishing or thinking yourself there. But, you can chart your direction, and if you do not neglect the fabric, that is neglect the small individual threads which must all be put in place to create your opportunity for the future, then surely as night follows day, you will achieve your destination.

−

I do not advise you to be dreamers, but no great thing was ever done without first being dreamed of. All of you here want deeply to help your world's forward progress toward the goal of light and life. You must all understand that this goal is far off, but it can be dreamed of. You can dream of a future where there is no hatred, or violence, disease, hunger, or warfare, where all human beings exist in loving respect for all other human beings. We understand that there are very many of you who are contributing to this forward progress, and we humbly and sincerely embrace you and your work. You also forget the great strides made by those who have preceded you. Therefore, I say to you, think deeply on the opportunities you are creating, the fabric that you are presenting to the world or will present to the world. Don't' think that it does not matter, because it matters intensely - to you, to your world, and to the on looking universe. - Ham

==Perspective==

−

It is acknowledged how the human race views the higher realms with such wonder, anticipation of the experience of great beauty, of spiritual luminosity, of love and bliss. But we who hail from the realms you admire are greatly and equally amazed at the miracle of the human being, what attainment is possible, what perseverance resides in the nature of humankind. This, I would say, is the greatest demonstration of God in time and space. - Elyon

==Transmitting Love==

−

We are anxious to convince you of your capabilities as a transmitter of love and information. We guarantee that your desire is sufficient and that you learn to quiet your mind long enough for us to get through. Any worthy thought or desire you can trust is indeed reinforced by us, even though you are not conscious of this. All of you have spoken unknowingly already with our help. This is the ideal, that you combine our energies with yours. When it becomes habitual to practice, it will become more and more hard to tell who is speaking. - Unseen Teacher

==Beauty of Difference==

Custom and behavior varies greatly from one planet to another. The diverse codes and mores as they exist on your planet between populations fail to be comparable to any that I know of. There exist, still, those of higher and lower castes, unable to converse on the same level, intermarry, do business, perhaps even touch. And if this sounds particularly like I’m referring to the Hindu world, not so, for it is identically so in your western world.

Line 324: Line 322:

By the time of arrival in the higher realms, you will be living in a state of complete certainty, confidence, yes, utter conviction that all you meet are friends, but better than friends. Still being unknown to them, all the same, you will have their love. There will be none so far above you that will shun you as unworthy. There will be none so high in status that they will avoid you. There will be none so intelligent as to see you below their rank, and there will be none so busy as to lack the time to acknowledge you.

==Worship==

−

Spiritual education is incomplete without worship for in worshiping is our acceptance of God as Parent and ourselves as children. Worship assists in the area of service to our fellows as it replenishes us with new energies, and with these energies we are not only able to serve our fellows, but to serve them cheerfully. Worship is a living energy that when its effects rain down upon us, we are overfilled to distribute this as truth, beauty, and goodness. Sitting in worshipful meditation, we feel this energy. - Abraham

==Truth as Value==

−

Truth is never a possession of one, but a gift to many; each of us envisioning a part of it. It is not something to prove, but a value to share by means of love. - Andrea

==Contentment==

Contentment is a certain satisfaction within the self, within the soul, that is garnered by appreciation for life's gifts or bounties. Contentment then is like a cat's purr. Complacency, however, is like the cat that is asleep in front of a fireplace, who opens an eye, observes a mouse walk past and goes back to sleep. - [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=1996-12-26-Routine_vs._Rut,_Life_Adventure#Happiness Tomas]

==Being Divine==

−

It is not you who describes herself as miserable, for you are divine. You are joy. You are perfect. What the challenge, then, is, is for you to identify with her and forego that miserable shell of false reality with which you identify. Allow the light of truth to raise you up. Stretch your roots and branches. Lift up your face. Hold fast your glowing ember, and behold yourself becoming new. Begin to unfurl, like the rare flower you are, with your own petals, unlike any other. Let not someone tell you what your flower looks like. Don't even worry about trying to describe your flower to someone else. Just grow. And be. And the Creator will speak for you and through you in your being. - Jay-Orzj

==Growth==

Growth is like time in that you can live only in the present. You can look back upon the past and witness your growth. You can project forward in hope of future attainment. This is your point of reference. But the Father's presence is beyond time. Your inner spirit knows your to-be-attained states today as if you have already accomplished the growth that you must undertake from your vantage point. Spirit luminosity can project you forward in faith to attain the trust that you are in Paradise even now while you are yet an animal origin human being. This is because the Father who is above all holds you close in the center of His being. Having accepted His call to become perfect, you are by all intents such. Grasp this as a value of the soul so that you may, during those confusional doubts of the mind, rise above the complexity present in your growth level of the current moment and perceive your worth even during your apparent failures.

Line 339: Line 336:

Likewise, since you have each make great progress in your ascension efforts, always allow yourself the freedom to recede retrospectively and enjoy the qualities of the attainment you have accomplished in the past. They were pleasurable levels of successful growth at one time, never to be despised later for being immature. Enjoy your retrospective views of your successes. They are as real now, for they are the foundations upon which your current growth level resides. At times when you are disturbed, feeling like you are not growing, that you are in a circular rut, faith grasp firmly that the Father knows the entire growth continuum of your being. It is a reality transcendent of your time location. It does exist now. Take this faith to the Father in worship and realize it for yourself in the present. This will lighten your burdens; it will strengthen you in dilemmas. It will encase your past in the light of high value.

You have all looked forward to that eventful future date when you will leave the realm of time and enter the dimension of eternity. Growth will carry you through the spectrum to this future event. Growth is your sailboat in the ocean of time, and the Father holds this ocean in the palms of His hands.- Elyon

==Balance Point==

−

You have a point within your mind that is your gravitational center, your balance point where divine spirit meets human personality and soul growth comes about. As you dwell here, it expands more and more, putting you in deeper touch with divine energy until you finally become this center, not merely your conscious mind full of thoughts that are but a small puddle beside a large lake. The conscious mind is the small puddle of knowledge while the center is a beautiful lake of wisdom. We want to show you that you can come here anytime and live from this center rather than going in and out. Here, the one who walks the slower path finds his answers more quickly than the one who is at a fast pace.- Malvantra

==Guiding Star==

−

The path of spirit is never long traversed by the weak of heart. If you have courage, then God requires all your courage. If you have faithfulness, then God requires all your faithfulness. It is impossible to be devoted to the spiritual life and be half-hearted or cowardly about it. The world is full of those who follow other humans, but few who follow God. - Ham

==Morality==

−

Morality is not the ideals imposed on you from society or social organizations such as churches. Morality is individual and is variable according to each person's own individual situation and inner light. Life's journey is only meaningful as it is expressed in this search for higher morality. Morality is not what someone tells you you should do. It is found only in your own heart and soul center, that place of spiritual leading.- Ham

As you progress in spirit, coming closer to God, partaking of his divine perfection, you become a better friend to others just as God is a perfect friend to you, one you can never trust too much for he will never let you down. As you partake of his nature, you are less and less likely to let your friends down.

Line 355: Line 352:

You become increasingly worthy of God's trust for he knows what he can give you and what you cannot handle. You never have to worry about violating His trust because you cannot do it. You can never disappoint God.

Keep your total trust where it belongs, not on your shoulders or anyone else's but God. Be calm and be gentle with yourselves. Be careful not to set yourselves up for disappointments by putting too much trust where it doesn't belong. - Ham

==Gender Roles==

It is a part of the maintenance of civilization that men and women have the roles to play, but it is highly detrimental to spirit, even the spirit of the individuals when they take those roles so seriously that they lose themselves in the role to satisfy society's expectations and their sense of marital obligation. This, if not checked, will make a mockery of the partnership of men and women.

If you overextend in these roles of wife/mother or husband/father in lieu of your own genuine self, then you will be contributing to the estrangement that is inherent in anyone who plays a role rather than relying upon the reality of truth to bridge these gaps. - Jasmine

==Thread Within==

You are literally like the spider drawing forth from within yourself the next step, the next choice, intimately connected with your new reality, designing your life one step at a time, one thought at a time, placing the new line down continuously. - Merium

==Maturity==

When you are resolved to know God, and have opened your mind and your heart to his presence, you will know him as infinite gentleness and infinite strength. It will occur to you that you can partake of his being at all times, in all circumstances, in each moment of every day. You will know the meaning of a door that has been opened which no human can shut. Indeed, the truth will be upon you and you will have no doubts, no nagging feeling that something doesn't fit, no worry that you placed your hopes and you dreams in something that may not be real. All that is washed away.

This period when you come to this realization is the beginning of the adolescence of your life. This is a period where you will learn the manners, the etiquette, the grace of adulthood, that you will have the feeling of starting to grow up, of knowing what's important and what is a distraction. And though you may be grey haired and aged, you will suddenly realize that your entire life had been spent in childhood. The future of your planet very much depends on the number of people who reach their spiritual adolescence who can put aside the petty materialistic and egocentric concerns of childhood and begin the initiation process of growing into maturity. - Ham

==Self-Mastery==

−

The human-self is a vehicle for the divine-self, but to do battle with your human imperfections is to most likely see them come out in full force. You seek self mastery, and you are believing it is in stifling the more animal like self within you. I would enlarge your concept by saying instead to remove this pressure by having your divine-self simply take your animal-self by the hand, like a precious child, and show it a new and better way to live. All those things you see as shortcomings or flaws, are more likely to be mastered by love than with self-loathing. - Abraham

==Intervention==

You as mortals of the realm are inherently shortsighted and fear ridden. As a species, as a race, your tendencies are to look for the outside forces you yearn for to show themselves, to make themselves known, to make their presences undeniable and overwhelming to all. This is your double edged sword, for, while it would remove all doubt as to the significance of the unseen principles, it also carries with it great disharmony, dysfunction in its implementation.
