SE Idaho TeaM

Topic: Health
Teacher: Daniel
Linda (Nancy/PamElla): My dear friends, I will take the microphone
for this opportunity in prayer. I am Linda, Nancy’s personal
teacher.
Creator Parent, First Source and Center, You who have created such
splendor, such an “awe inspiring walk” of progression to, You. Be
with all of us, students and teachers, as we prepare to come
together in a manner that best meets the needs of these our
students. Help us, as teachers, to respond to our students concerns
and needs. Help our students to open themselves to discover new
aspects of their beings and reasons for their actions and responses,
that we all may progress rapidly in our walk to You. I offer these
words with much love and great devotion to You, my Fath! er, my
Parent. Amen
Group conversation prior to the prayer: Little Abby is being the
typical 2-year old enjoying the gathering of friends here at our
meeting. Ken asks, jokingly, the question if our teachers see us
the same way? Daniel responds immediately, “only at times.”
Daniel (Nancy): Greetings my friends, I am Daniel your teacher
guide, friend and, yes, admirer, continuing and constant. I do so
enjoy your whimsical humor, and your insight into the reality of
spiritual progression.
You may remember early in my curriculum with you here at this space
in SE Idaho, we did discuss on many occasions the nature of your
infant-dom, your toddler-hood, in the great progression to our
Father. So while you all have matured greatly in this past brief
time, brief in the sense of infinity and even in the sense of the
span of our lives (we your teachers), you still remain quite young.
Let me also communicate to you the intense delight we take in your
many growth steps. That delight that you feel as you watch this
youngster or your own grandchildren or children is no different for
us. We are charmed by your beingness. We are thrilled by our
friendships, and we are often stunned by the leaps that you take.
So, I, Daniel, your great admirer greet you this evening. Kenneth,
thank you for that opportunity to make such a little speech.
Ken: (group laughing) My pleasure Daniel, …my pleasure.
Daniel: Now may I say that the infant-dom and the toddler-hood that
we discussed early in your foundation building has been replaced.
You are clearly in school. However, there is no comparison to your
grade levels, so, we will not even go there.
LaReen: School of “hard knocks!”
Daniel: Yes LaReen, indeed does experience school one far better
than any intellectual understanding that comes from even a lesson
such as the early lessons of this mission. Rather, it is in taking
these lessons and putting them into action in your lives through
experience that understanding is formed. It is through struggle
that your soul is evolved, and this is in accordance with the will
of our Father.
Now as a qualification I wish to acknowledge that this world does
have its share of “knocks”, as you put it, that differs from more
advanced planets or planets without a history of rebellion. But,
you notice and you also have heard of the advantages that you will
experience as a result of these “hard knocks” as you progress.
And, so, while I greatly appreciate your humor, I am of serious tone
tonight, am I not?
Ken: All the heads nod yes. But not mine, I thought you are in
great humor tonight Daniel, thank you.
Daniel: My friends, please bear with us a moment. Yes! I am of
serious tone tonight, for I wish to discuss a serious subject which
has thrown Nancy in the same way that Simeon mentioned feeling
thrown last week …with the same concept of health.
Yes! It is the discussion of health I wish to pursue. And the
manner in which I wish to pursue it is of the style of Aaron.
However, it has been decided that I shall conduct this discussion
rather than Aaron, for the TR is more familiar and more comfortable
with my presence.
Last week, Rayson emphasized the significance of your relationship
to the Father and spiritual living in promoting greater health. He
also answered questions in general terms regarding specifics. We
are aware that you have contemplated this lesson over the week.
Although you discussed it somewhat in reading the transcripts, we
would like you to take a few moments and share your ponderings, your
open questions, your conclusions, and the areas you desire to
research. This is broad in general, but I hope it will help spur a
discussion.
My dear friend Pat, would you be willing to begin, on this topic?
Pat: Being spiritual and in tune with the Father, I think we
certainly will become more healthy in all parts of our lives. It
certainly makes us want to be better and make better choices. I
guess that’s why we are all at this point, trying to be healthier.
I have been reading a book on blood types and food that you should
eat for your type. I am wondering if that is appropriate or has
value. I do not know if you can help me with that or not.
Daniel: One minute please. I do have the information, yes.
Pat: Is there value in that train of thought in this book or not?
Daniel: Yes, Pat, there is value, however, the research is still
being developed and the factual basis is somewhat “muddied.” So, my
suggestion on this is to take that part of what you read that
stimulates that “ah-ha” response, that feeling of a right fit, and
ignore that which does not. Remember that the Father works in
numerous ways to guide and school His children. While all that you
read, all that is brought to your attention to be read, may not be
generally true, pay attention to those aspects that strike you as
correct. This would be true.&n! bsp; This would be a wise way to
proceed for all of you in your reading. Does this help and address
your concerns?
Pat: Yes, thank you Daniel. I think it is difficult for all of us,
as each body is different, and reacts differently to foods and just
normal conditions. I don’t know if there is a flat over-all answer
for us all.
Daniel: Yes, Pat, and let me address that. Indeed is every
individual different, with different biochemistry, different needs
and these nutritional needs vary over time; vary with environmental
conditions, vary by age, etc. Normally, the human body is
miraculously able to find those foods which it needs at different
points in time. I would give you the example of the animal kingdom,
wild animals that are able to free-range.
In their ideal environments they are able to find those foods that
heal them. However, because of the history of this planet, because
so much information that did exist at the time of Adam and Eve has
been diluted and lost, and because of the realities of your culture
and your food industry, etc, it has become quite difficult for you
as human animals to say to yourself, “what is it that I need to eat
today?” Also, your eating institutions do not support that type of
eating process.
The decisions that drive choices of food occur much more at an
intellectual and an emotional level. There is also the
physiological addictive effect of many of the additives that are in
your foods that do not assist in the type of eating where an
individual could say: “what will nourish me today, what nourishment
is it that I need?” Yes, this is the very question that all of you
should ask of yourself, before eating, not, “what do I want,” but
rather, “what will nourish me.” There are most definitely
variations in human animals that come from your differences in
evolved status that impact predominate tendencies. Yet, as Rayson
said last week “eat those foods that are closest to ! living, that
have the greatest life in them,” and you will find greater
nourishment.
The additional difficulty for you as you ask “what is it that I need
to eat for nourishment” is that it is very hard for you to find
those foods that may in fact be nourishing because of the way they
have been raised, shipped and stored, etc.
Has this helped?
Pat: Yes, thank you.
Daniel: My pleasure. Before I ask someone else to share their
thoughts from the week, does anyone want to respond to the current
topic on the table?
Virginia: Daniel, I would go ahead and think in terms of
relationship with God as the nourishment that really causes us to
find more balance in our life.
Years ago at school when I was teaching, I was called Pollyanna in
derision, and I was really annoyed with it because I really think
the positive attitude, on the part of human beings helps them
through their day rather than focusing on the negative. At that
time, I just happened to find an article on research coming out of a
Methodist university from Texas in the local newspaper that said
that Pollyanna’s live longer. I’m sorry I don’t have the specific
there, but it certainly made me feel better. In spite of the knocks
of this world, to know that Jesus said, “be of good cheer for I have
overcome the world” gives me great hope. So, I think it’s very
important to continue to loo! k at the good within everyday because
not only does it give you balance, it also gives you the Eternal
hope of the Presence of the Spirit in your life.
Daniel: Thank you, Virginia, for beautifully bringing to the
forefront the central plane of this multifaceted thing called
health. Yes, health has its physical human animal aspects, as we
were discussing in the relation of the physical mechanism to food,
to nutrition. As you have beautifully expounded upon, spiritual
help and emotional help are vital components of overall health.
Pollyanna’s do, indeed, live longer because of the interplay between
the emotional and the physical and the power of the mind. This is
an aspect of what I will term, the laws of the material (being of
substance) world. As one perceives, a connection between the mind
and the molecular structure of the organism is created. The
spiritual, the desire to do the Will of the Father, balances the
whole, guides the thinking, assists the organism in finding those
elements that are needed for physical health. However it is, of
course, one’s spiritual health that leads to eternity, that leads to
the Father, that leads to the Grand and Glorious Adventure. ! ; It
is the alignment of the personality to the Father that balances the
health of the whole.
Virginia: Just one other thought on that. My son sent me an email
of the latest research, which says that meditation stimulates the
immunization system in our bodies, and indeed he gave credit to
meditation as perhaps a reason we had Bill as long as we did.
Daniel: Yes, this is another connection between the desire to be of
spiritual health and it’s effect on the physical. I am sorry that I
cannot respond to the implied question regarding Isaac, for I really
do not know. As I stated previously, the timing of his graduation
was a surprise to me. I was not prepared. I am sorry, my dear,
that I cannot tell you this. However, I am as pleased as anyone
that Gregory brought this to your attention and that it added fuel
to his flaming torch that is flickering less than previously.
(Thank you Daniel)
Kenneth how about you?
Ken: I’m fine thank you.
Daniel: Yes, indeed you are. Now if you would be so kind as to
share your thoughts about last week’s lesson, I would feel
gratified.
Ken: The lesson last week and the comments this evening raised many
thoughts in my mind. When you say when we sit down at a meal and
ask what will nourish us the best, other than spiritual …I think my
thoughts go to the point where we are asking for spiritual guidance
from our Thought Adjuster or those in attendance to us, that we
would find the right nourishment to not only work on our immediate
problems, physical problems, but also to reactivate aspects of our
DNA that have been suppressed for sometime. I think with the proper
nourishment we can reactivate that (DNA) and help us lead a healthy
life.
Daniel: Yes, Ken. You are well tuned in to your guides. This is
our desire in raising this issue, a combination of spiritual
practice, healthy nutrition, Life Carrier and other types of
healings, and various other practices that are new, or soon to come
into your knowledge base, can have this effect. My TR is struggling
to keep her thoughts on this subject out of this, and yet I do wish
to draw upon some of her research.
A number of years ago Nancy was given a cookbook by her brother and
sister in-law. It had that ah-ha effect upon her. She began a
cleansing of her kitchen, made the investment in the foods
recommended and began to feel more energetic than she had in years.
At roughly the same time she became involved with her husband, made
a move, and found that pursuing this new way of eating was not
convenient (her word would be practical) under the circumstances.
I wish to raise this style of eating that you may research it( you
being you in the broader sense, including readers). Macrobiotic
eating is not for everyone, but it is a very good beginning place.
Some people may require greater animal sources than are provided for
in Macrobiotic eating, but these animal sources should be
hormone-free, free range, organic, or wild. There are other
technologies that have been well researched for a number of years,
although much of this information has remained suppressed.
Do read books as they are brought to your attention. I will not
name the particular technologies at this time. Not because I am
unwilling but my TR is.
LaReen, my dear, this issue of health is one you have struggled with
and had ample opportunity to consider. Do you wish to share with us
this evening?
LaReen: Yes! Good evening Daniel. For three years I have been
researching food, supplements, herbs, and life styles around Lupus.
Everybody has been helpful, from friends, and family, and to always
getting the latest information. I have cut out the foods that I’m
supposed to, and still I would find myself in a flare. If I look
back honestly, it has been after an emotional day or event.
Something clicked back here in August, and I believe it’s more trust
and faith in Father and Mother and turning over my worries that I
can’t do anything about and more still time, quality still time.
Something just clicked, I just threw everything out the window, I
walk in the sun, I’ll eat citrus, and not one problem in three
months. So, I can see what you are saying about the balance. I’m a
believer!
Daniel: Yes, LaReen. Thank you for sharing this insight tonight.
For ultimately it is the mind in alignment, that can heal. However,
one should never feel guilt for illness, for these other dimensions
are valid, are real. However, the mind aligned with the Father can
trigger that molecular rejuvenation. We are thrilled by your state
of being, my dear. Good work!
LaReen: Thank you! I couldn’t have done it without you guys.
Daniel: It is, of course, our pleasure to be of service to you. Are
there any other comments, or questions this evening? (pause) In
that case, let us hold hands.
Father, I Daniel, thank You for the gift of these friends to walk
hand-in-hand , to work mind to mind, to stand in joyful
thanksgiving, singing praises to You. I ask that You be with these,
Your children, this week as they work to perfect their balance, that
they can adjust from skipping and dancing along a balance beam, to
doing flips. Go with joy, and be of good cheer. Amen
