The [[curriculum]] is first, one of deep [[psychology|psychological]] probing. It is not designed to make you instantly feel good, that you might forget your problems for a while, you have your churches, you have your entertainment for all that. These sessions are meant to cause some psychological upheavals in the beginning, to make each one face squarely the realities of life and the realities of one’s inner psychological make-up.

You cannot paint over rotting wood, and expect it to be strong. You must replace the boards, one by one. You must build solidly your psychological foundations before there should be other types of action among Teaching Mission students.

This [[curriculum]] is designed to help you understand each other, and by extension, to understand all others. These groups touch many sensitive spots and many group interactions are painful and difficult and through this, you begin to broaden your [[mind]]s. To just take the first steps in understanding others who are different from you, who think differently, who see the world very differently. And it is helpful for you each to know how different people can be.

You begin to see the various psychological subterfuges that each person employs to feel comfortable in group settings. It is all for your [[education]], for your [[spiritual]] grounding that these lessons are difficult and are not always designed to simply make you feel good temporarily before you go back to your lives. These lessons are part of your lives, part of your growth experience in the world. Not separate.

This, then, necessarily, takes [[time]]. And you cannot begin to really gain spiritual balance, we estimate, in less than fifteen to twenty years. These classes will change you. They will change the way you look at the world, and the way you understand yourselves and others, and the [[universe]] itself. We try to do this in a balanced manner. To give you tools to use in your lives that will help your balance and your psychological foundation.

We do not speak of space ships landing to change the world and solve your [[human]] problems. We do not speak of new messiahs or even the [http://www.nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Chapter_41_-_Tuesday_Evening_on_Mount_Olivet#The_Master.E2.80.99s_Second_Coming Second Coming], which will intervene and solve your human problems. We are slowly and gradually beginning to equip a few mortals to help other mortals. Even as we speak, you are each being placed, given contacts, given assignments, so to speak, to broaden your awareness and also to broaden your [[education]] for what is necessary.

These groups are small and each person who is a loyal member, who absorbs these lessons, is watched by many angels. You are certainly being placed when you are ready to do the most good for the most people. Preparation then, is everything.

This is not a [[mass movement]]. We do not seek to gain many followers and become a [[religion]]. We simply want to help each person who comes to understand that they are absolutely essential for the success of the Mission as a whole. Each one of you here is in contact with many more, and you have more influence than you realize. As you speak, as you carry yourselves, as you bring [[truth]] to the world vastly in need of it. The Master said we will be none too ready when the Father calls. And so it is.

These schools are not meant to become massive influences in themselves. They are meant to transform the students. And it will be the students who become influential.

It is important that what little money accumulated by the groups is used for the groups and is used up. We do not want to see accumulation of money, or property. These groups are influential only so far as you remain free from political entanglements. We focus on the [[individual]], not on a group, or a movement, or some kind of new "ism". Leave organized [[religion]] to those who would organize. Maintain freedom from these kinds of ensnarement.

We are setting up these small schools, these small lesson places all around this planet. We have many in Mexico, Latin America, and several in Europe, and beginning to have some even in Asia. All these schools are coordinated. All these schools have a set curriculum. It may seem quite random, at times, but I assure you, it is not.

Each lesson is important. And each week it is important for you to think upon the lesson and to widen your horizons by that tiny bit more. Each student is supremely important. We cherish each one of you who comes to these schools. You are each one surrounded by angelic influence. You are each moved in your lives. You are blocked from wrong paths and given right ones. Your preparation is all of your life. It is not simply being a minister who preaches. No. You are immersed in life; immersed in work; immersed in your world. And through these patient lessons, week upon week upon week, you are gradually being transformed. It is that spiritual growth and transformation, which will itself, allow the angels to place you where you need to be. Do not for a moment think that you are left dangling, or left without help, or without guidance, for this is not so. Each of you is given tasks, given opportunities; given problems to solve that is part of this training. These schools do not exist in a vacuum. You are never taken out of your lives. You are never asked to leave your families or your communities or your work. You are not asked for money, for volunteership, for property. You are not asked for anything except humble adherence to the teachings. That is all that is required.
