Unity
principles:
1. There
is only one Presence and one Power active as the universe and as
my life: God the Good.
2. Our
essence is of God; therefore we are inherently good. this God
essence, called the Christ, was fully expressed in Jesus.
3. We
are co-creators with God, creating reality through thoughts held
in mind.
4.
Through prayer and meditation, we align our heart-mind with God.
Denials and affirmations are tools we use.
5.
Through thoughts, words and actions, we live the Truth we know.
THE
UNITY PRAYER OF PROTECTION:
The
light of God surrounds me.
The
love of God enfolds me.
The
power of God protects me.
The
presence of God watches over me.
Wherever I am, God is ...
and
all is well.
(Prayer
of Protection by James Dillet Freeman)

J.J. JOHNSON, a new friend, presents his book
Up Close and Personal With
The Urantia Book.
J.J. says his work reviews Urantia's evangelistic message
and "its potential transformational impact with the
cumulative effect of advancing higher levels of human
civilization on our strife-torn planet." As a study guide,
the book relates passages to concepts and the values they
represent. Check it out at
Amazon.
ALEX PEACEMAKER at Peacemaker Records is an
advocate
of the native people of what is now British Columbia. He
sends this photo of a newborn Sinixt child whom the Canadian
government does not officially recognize, and writes:
"The Sinixt people are the original inhabitants of the
area now called the West Kootenays, BC, Canada. They are
the Mother Tribe of all the vast Salishan
dispersion and they record themselves living in the Upper
Columbia River Basin region, as human beings, for
about two million years. There is scientific evidence
they have been here for at least 60,000 years. Sinixt is
pronounced Sin Eye X T.
"A
colonial genocide was committed against the Sinixt. A
bounty was put on them, man, woman and child. Then the
government of Canada declared the surviving Sinixt
'extinct.' Being declared 'extinct' means the Sinixt have
no legal entitlement to an Indian Status card, or a Social
Insurance Number, or a medical CareCard, - Sinixt
children are not entitled to a public school or college
education. This makes the Sinixt economic fringe-dwellers
in the midst of Canadian Second World prosperity."
THE CHURCH WITHIN: Daniel Megow launched this
online ministry in the early 1990s, when we both were forming our
spiritual service missions. These Sunday sermons have
reached millions and offer an archival treasury of the most
fragrant and inspiring altruistic spiritual lessons and
soul-warming stories of the age.

WORLD IN TURMOIL
In these times of
quickening global crisis, creative artists are showing frustration, anger,
and rebellion, and an intense desire for higher values. Some are seeing
light at the end of Apocalypse; others don't.
In the pending year, humankind will remain racked with the legitimate
fears of terrorism, economic ruin, environmental disasters, mind-boggling
corruption, raging conflicts in several countries, ongoing genocides, and
with a volatile presidential election booming at us all year long.
As we face a new year, L&L urges your prayers for the human family, your
empathy for others, and your active service to implant higher ideals in
this critical time of tumultuous changes.
Here, we invite you to explore with us, and learn lessons from the
creative works that express the rages of the time.
FEATURED VIDEOS:
DJ CHRIS GEO - WE'RE IN A LOT OF TROUBLE. In the realm of Hip
Hop and all music genres, artists are expressing rage at the corruption
that permeates our institutions, alienates society, and ruins lives. These
people see some ugly truths they will not tolerate.
IRIS DEMENT - LIVING IN THE WASTELAND OF THE FREE.
Anger from rural Arkansas with Iris Dement, who exposes how we use our
freedom to embrace lies, deceit and frivolity. In the Ozarks and
elsewhere, the painful realities of our follies are well-known.
TRACY CHAPMAN - BANG BANG BANG. While we
lament the victims of guns in passing, the lure of power in guns and bombs
remains unabated in the world, turning children into soldiers of the
apocalypse and making the world's largest governments partners with
murderers in the horrible harvest of the global arms trade.
PETER GABRIEL & TRACY CHAPMAN - DON'T GIVE UP. Despite it
all, the hope for humanity lies with us, and we can't even think about
giving up. An inspiring duet on a world stage.
JACKSON BROWNE - FOR EVERYMAN. Even if our ideals get trampled down by
realities, and we can't get to our dreams alone, we can take our place on
life's treadmill with the all the others who hope to find themselves in
each other.

CORRUPTION EXPLORATION:
"The
combined profits for the ten drug companies in the Fortune
500 ($35.9 billion) were more than the profits for all the
other 490 businesses put together ($33.7 billion). Over
the past two decades the pharmaceutical industry has moved
very far from its original high purpose of discovering and
producing useful new drugs. Now primarily a marketing
machine to sell drugs of dubious benefit, this industry
uses its wealth and power to co-opt every institution that
might stand in its way, including the US Congress, the
FDA, academic medical centers, and the medical
profession itself."
-- Dr. Marcia Angell, former editor in chief of the
New England Journal of Medicine
In cooperation with Fred Burks and
RightToKnow, here's a riveting 10-page summary of Dr.
Angell's new book that blows open the greed of the
pharmaceutial industry. An enlightened era of Light and
Life on the planet is impossible while deceit
rules our vital institutions. Spiritual growth is
impossible in a selfish world. Read it at:

SPEAK TO YOU AGAIN by Jesus Christ is a new revelation being
featured at

The receiver is Algimantas Jokubena, who has championed the
Urantia revelation throughout
Lithuania. Click on the English version. The
narrative is available in html, text or pdf form, and
includes an important introduction and notes by Algimantas.
He asks that we make note that the Revelation was received
in the Lithuanian language and he has devoted many hours to
an English translation. While the language may seem "heavy,"
he states that he has stayed as true as possible to the
words and the truths in the Revelation above stylistic
concerns. Hope you enjoy your exploration of this
comprehensive manuscript.

Visit the site to read how Charles came into contact with
the revelation and has subsequently helped seed it across

Education, Code of Love and Unixitron, which connects
humans with the
Universal Whole. The final section is signed by St.
Germain. The "Twelve Principles" presented are exercises
for individuals who are ready to work on their lower
parts, which hold them tied to the darkness of the
world. "The principles have been in the world a very long
time," says Charles, "but were added here because of
their self-work value and because they go along in sync
with the other material. I can’t recommend these
Principles enough for anyone considering working in this
area."

Church of Christ pastor, speaks widely on the “Gospel of
Evolution,” presenting evolution as theology, not theory. He
says: “The marriage of science and religion builds bridges
and restores hope, realistic hope, individually and
collectively. People across the religious and philosophical
spectrum are waking up to the fact that cosmic, biological
and human history is our shared sacred epic, our common
creation story.”

The Teaching Mission:
New?
When celestial teachers in the Teaching Mission began
transmitting via humans in the early 1990's, many New Age
spiritualists considered it just more of the same, nothing
they had not already discovered. In response, this
transmitted list summarized TeaM revelations that
were new to
most humans at the time of presentation and likely still are
today. This Divine
Dozen formed a core for the TeaM teachings through the first
decade.
