TOMAS: Amen, little brother. Thank you for your [[sincere]] words of [[prayer]] for direction and [[counsel]] on how to attain greater familiarity with the [[methods]] [[the Master]] utilized in his sojourn on [[Urantia]], wherein your [[consciousness]] of the divine is interwoven throughout your lives, even each day and moment.

This week I had an [[opportunity]] to "talk on the telephone" through the experimental practice of "long-distance T/R’ing" as has been initiated through the formulating [http://www.lightandlife.us/ Association for Light and Life], as an [[outreach]] project. The experience was for me an opportunity to convey to you how similar we are, and how similar our work is, for I – when I enter into a [[communication]] with you – must set aside my [[ethereal]] nature in order to become [[mechanically]] connected to the processes which allow our [[communications]] to take place, i.e., the [[midwayers]] and their invaluable assistance in translating.

For you, the process is similar -- In order to communicate with someone on the telephone, you need to use the device -- but this also goes beyond the obvious and merely technical aspects of [[outreach]], for an important part of the [[process]] involved in the two-way communications is the ability to [[listen]].

Are there other questions or areas of interest at issue you would like to [[share]] or open for consideration?

Men-o-pah: I noticed within your comments about the river of life. There is among the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Cherokee people] now an initiative of some contemporaries who are still living. They have a [[song]] that goes like this: "Is everybody here? Is everybody safe? Is everybody warm inside? Cherokee, you’re part of me. I am wild and deep. Even when you [[sleep]]. Cherokee River, [[flow]] on down to me."

TOMAS: Yes, son, you speak of the richness of the [[living water]] that extends into the barren [[desert]] and creates an [[oasis]] of life for all that partake. The great [[ocean]] that the river of life leads into is the great [[God consciousness]] of all, the [[culmination]] of the work we do in fostering the spirit, in and through each man, each woman, each child. And the constancy of the [[flow]] of this powerful river will not [[rest]], will not cease flowing, until such time as the river is consumed by the ocean and all within, then, swell with the [[tide]] -- the whole of [[humanity]], the whole of creation.
