[[Reflection]] is what we will speak on tonight. You requested it for you noticed it today, how everything is
a reflection of [[everything]] else. Sometimes not a reflection to the eye but a reflection of [[the soul]], a
reflection of worlds upon worlds. The long trail going up over the hill is a reflection of the long [[trail]] you
will travel in your life. It will only be that particular trail over that particular hill for a matter of minutes,
hours, days, but the long trail of your life that the previous trail mentioned reflects, can be encountered,
examined, and [[understood]] as “Trail”. Let’s reflect on that.
Reflections of the [[sky]] in the [[water]]; reflections of the face in the [[mirror]]; reflections of [[thoughts]] spoken
through [[words]]; these are all brought together through the [[mechanism]] of [[Creation]], a creation that deals
in Grand Reflections that give life to each component. The face in the mirror will not know itself without
the mirror. The mirror is of no use without the face. The thoughts being [[expressed]] in the words that
reflect it are of no use without the words, they cause no ripples without the words. And the words
without the thought are meaningless. [[Sound]], only sound. So [[Truth]] as reflected in the life and thoughts
and work of an [[individual]] can be encompassed, can be absorbed, as Truth’s reflection. Truth in this life
needs an object, for it is in its capacity as [[storyteller]] that it can be best appreciated. Truth is, yes, above
all, beyond all, within all, as a [[Oneness]]. But for that Oneness to be appreciated in [[Mind]] it needs
reflection – it needs a reflection to view and it needs reflecting upon once viewed. So there are two
examples of reflection -- two different types of reflection -- that are absolutely [[necessary]] to carry on
with life.
[[Beauty]] is a reflection of the [[Divine]]. [[Goodness]] is a reflection of [[Heart]], [[Love]]. It is Love. And Love is to be
reflected upon and to be reflected. [[Human being]]s must reflect Love to one another. Love is the answer
to all questions. Love is the current of the universe. It gives out [[vibrations]] that are themselves
reflections of the Beating Heart behind the Love, behind the Beauty, behind the Truth, behind the
Goodness. Reflection is the way Life is carried to its conclusion. When reflection is not consciously
present in the [[human mind]] there is [[darkness]]. And darkness needs to be lit by an Interior Flame that will
itself become a reflection of the life that is begging to be lived. Live your life upon reflection. Live your
life as a reflection. Live your life giving reflection. And know that [[the Source]] of all of these reflections is
precisely what is being reflected. There’s a saying, “It is all done with mirrors.” Well, in a way this is true.
For this is how we can discover the [[values]], the [[meanings]] that exist around us and within us. We reflect.
Amen.
