Session

Opening

Tonight we shall speak on a topic you just broached – “Holding a Steady Beam of Light”.

Lesson

Holding that Steady Beam of Light is first and foremost a matter of attitude steeped in Gratitude. How can one project a steady stream of the stuff of Holy Thankfulness if one is not thankful oneself? The highlight of any day is the moment both sides of this coin are revealed at once; when the Light sent out has taken root and beamed back a fellow Light connoisseur, whether your fellow would see it in those terms or not.

The Steady Beam of Light projected into and onto the world is born of a different realm, one that adds weight and substance - odd for a commodity called ‘light’ – to a world thin with exhaustion of its own elements, elements of a seeming magic unto themselves – DNA, enzymes, flora, fauna, seas, stars, seasons – but elements which without the added ingredient of Spirit (i.e. Light) can only yield so much, can only give forth a measured output. But when radiated with the light of Spirit – as vegetation is nurtured with the sun and rain – the world becomes a many layered and purposeful palace of wonders, with no boundaries, “no fences facing” to quote a beloved poet.

By projecting – some would prefer the term ‘extending’ – a Steady Beam of Light, the opportunities for this growth above and beyond the local become illuminated. One senses by example the existence of such realms and the world becomes larger exponentially.

The Steady Beam of Light lights not only the world around you but the world within you, a much larger area indeed. When light falls on any area of concern how much brighter the outlook, for suddenly the parameters of what looked like an enclosed, insufferable, inescapable helix is now bathed in a sort of magic elixir, a potion that can cure rather than conceal. The Steady Beam of Light is gentle but relentless; will not allow past shadows to keep their positions, will not allow past attitudes to hold their customary place in the pantheon of prejudices.

When one is confronted with a Steady Beam of Light, both the beholder and the bringer, the torch bearer, are changed – brought closer to this light and made more like it: effervescent, telling, open- minded, devoted to its Source as an extension of its Source. The beam knows it is but a beam, but the Light of which it consists is the Beginning and the Ending, the Bringer of All Beams. And you then, bearing such a beam, have become part of the living process by which the world is transfigured by these individual Steady Beams of Light.

The Steady Beam of Light is the answer to that nagging question, “What can I do? How can I help?” There is no greater help one can bring than to be a daily bearer, an hourly bearer, a constant and happy bearer, of The Steady Beam of Light.

Closing

This is serious business. Smile.
