THE TEACHING MISSION

9/3/04

LightLine T/R Group:

* Aaron: Greetings to you, my friends, I am Aaron. I am here with you tonight
to share in fellowship. At a very core level in the human psyche there is a
deep yearning for the realization of fellowship on a community, societal, and
global level. Clashing often occurs in the fear based illusion that isolation
has occurred and fellowship is lacking. And thus, so often you perpetuate what
it is that you fear, making it a reality, turning the unreal into the real.

This fear of isolation has its roots in the Rebellion, and the loss of your
Material Son and Daughter, and though countless generations removed, the
perpetuation of this sense of isolation has occurred, manifesting into abnormal
fears and sometimes drastic events and cycles of behavior that separates one
further from the realization of connectedness in the universe of God. We are
here to provide alternative systems of behavior. We recognize that the root
cause was not of your own doing. To allow this cycle to perpetuate would be to
witness continued implosion of personality potential.

Though a long drawn out time, in your mind, that this planetary and system
isolation has occurred, we recognize it as the natural course of events
wrapping themselves up, and now that the culmination has been processed and is
in process, we no longer need to wait to be of assistance to your worlds that
have been darkened. The dawning of a new day of spiritual enlightenment is
upon us all. The perceived need to feel alone no longer exists. The first
step toward coming out, so to speak, is to know that a friendly universe exists
and this is why we are here, to tell you, but also to show you. For our
lessons are of worth for ponderance and comprehension of ideas and ideals, but
our presence is the dawning awareness of a connectedness that you have
previously been unaware of. And although you have the Source of Everything
residing within your very beings, the mask of default and rebellion has clouded
your realization of this common union.

At this time, we want you to know that aside from your union with the Divine,
all else is trivial in comparison. Communication with celestial personalities
without the recognition of the divine embrace merely signifies to you an
oddity, an awareness of creaturedom, but without the recognition of the Kingdom
of Heaven within, this would be hollow to the yearning of your soul. And thus,
the importance of your coming into quiet time with your Father fragment,
seeking union with the Divine, such that all your communications, either
celestial, divine, or human, are magnified in the divinity comprehension that
underlies all efforts toward fellowship.

I look forward to continued relationship with you in our common awareness of a
common plan of ascension where, as brothers and sisters, we are seeking the
same goal, which is manifestation of personality to its highest potential in
the recognition of its embrace with divinity. The levels of your willingness
to pursue this personality realization are tied up in your willingness to spend
time in contact with your Father. This contact happens by: 1. Stillness --
quiet meditation -- reflective contemplation -- worshipful problem solving, or
by 2: Your outward reach toward manifesting a desire to do good to other
personalities - service. We encourage you to recognize that these two methods
of contact with the Divine are both critical to pursue for a balanced,
increasing comprehension of divinity, and your own potential in light of that
realization.

Stillness without service is, and would be, gravitating you into circular
patterns of behavior, whereas service without stillness would be like grasping
at straws, spokes of energy applied that can cause diffusion of being and
exhaustion. But stillness, if approached with a healthy realization of its
utility, which is the refreshment of your soul in the divine embrace, will
naturally gravitate you toward service opportunities in your lives.

The service you undergo can be at various levels. When you hear someone
talking to you about bold manifestations, proclamations of God as a necessity,
these are the more boisterous realms of service. When you hear someone talking
to you of offering small kindnesses as you pass by, these are the less
noticeable realms of service. And yet, neither is recommended by us as the way
you should go, because your service, your personal service, should be the
result of your communion with the Divine, such that you will know what is right
for you to do and it will seem more natural. And as you pursue, you will find
fruit in your efforts.

This level of activity is where you will begin to find the higher and more
noble efforts of fellowship, for when you are in the flow of manifesting your
divine leadings, your inclinations, you will both attract and gravitate toward
people who yearn for similar activity in their lives. And the satisfaction of
your personal relationship to God will have smoothed out the rough edges of
your character such that you can be more sincerely connected to other
personalities who are connected to their Divine Presence. It is here also that
you become a magnet for wounded souls and your balance and unselfish activity
will lure them toward this community of love, manifesting into service
potentials.

And so tonight I hope that I have afforded you a picture, an idea of a
procession, a series of items that you can reflect upon and perhaps utilize in
your own connection and communication with your Indwelling Spirit such that you
can perhaps grow more certainly in the recognition of fellowship that is ever
present on a universal level and only waiting for your increasing recognition
at the human level. At this time I would allow you to communicate. If you
have any questions, thoughts, or ideas, please feel free to share.

Kelly: About stillness or meditation, is it ever beneficial to use music in
doing the stillness or meditation, such as calming or meditation oriented
music? Is that helpful?

* Aaron: For you, you must find what aids you in calming yourself such that you
can be open to the divine embrace, and music certainly affords a calming effect
at times. The difficulty would be if you continually focused upon the music
rather than the embracing presence and sometimes it may be difficult to
separate. Meditation simply to calm one's mind -- in this case, yes, music is
quite facilitating, but as you find yourself able to come into the stillness
with music, you may realize that music can only take you so far before you
would want to come solely as yourself in the quiet to seek deeper comprehension
and connection without the potentially distracting elements, for music can be
both calming and distracting depending upon your perception. Does this clarify
for you?

Kelly: Yes it's helpful. I haven't used music in the past, but I'm interested
in trying it.

* Aaron: Yes, and recognize that music can bring about the calm levels that can
then bring you deeper awareness, but if music is your focus then it can also
distract you from divinity realization. So, a potential tool to use would be
to have a period of music that ends, followed by a period of quiet for the
deepening of presence. I think you will find that this may perhaps aid your
efforts more so than relying on music as a method.

Kelly: Another question about stillness. Once I'm calm and quiet and try to
listen for contact I don't seem to be able to maintain concentration. Thoughts
can get in the way.

* Aaron: A good distinction to make would be the difference between general
meditation and stillness meditation. In general meditation one often is
focused on stopping thought, whereas in the stillness meditation I would
encourage a perspective to channel thought, meaning to focalize in the quiet
and as thoughts come to you to turn them toward the Father and recognize them
for what they are. But stand aloof from the thoughts. Sometimes having a word
or an idea that you can replace thoughts with is helpful. For example, when
you begin to think about work in stillness, you may recognize it, but don't
chastise yourself. Recognize it for what it is and then simply turn it toward
God and say thank you, either vocally or in your mind. This energy of
thankfulness will return your mind to the source that you seek rather than
emphasizing the power that thoughts have over you. This may be more effective
than trying to stop thoughts from occurring or getting frustrated because t!
hought is occurring, for you are a thinking being. To recognize this is to
find an acceptance that can lead you toward a higher recognition that thoughts
do not control you, but your ability to stand aside from your thoughts and
refocus on the Source is more powerful.

Often what you gain in the stillness is not conscious but in the realms of your
superconscious, where you may not perceive directly any personal contact, and
yet, simply the process of making time, coordinating your thoughts, focusing
them toward the Source and continually redirecting for a period of time each
day allows a transfer to take place, regardless of your awareness. This will
produce results over time even if you are not directly perceiving it on a day
to day basis. Does this help you my friend?

Kelly: Yes it is very helpful. Thank you very much.

Marshall: Do you have time for another question teacher?

* Aaron: Certainly.

Marshall: Who might this be?

* Aaron: This is Aaron

This is Marshall. Good to hear you. A question here. When coming into
contact with our brethren, during this process when we identify obvious pain
within another, any help you might offer, clues, on how to most effectively
practice the energy transfer of being a conduit or channel to beam hope, peace,
and love into the hearts of the individual who we have personal contact with?
That's my question.

* Aaron: Thank you. The only real effective method for allowing this
transference to take place is for them to see it in your actions, either
directed toward them or generally in life. For them to feel peace they must
see it in you. For them to know your love, they must witness it being
offered.

This is the emphasis I placed on service in this evening's lesson and the
importance of alternating service with stillness, for the world, and thus
individuals in the world, will be transformed by people who accept the
challenge of entering into the divine embrace. And those who have entered the
divine embrace will most assuredly enter into other avenues of effort that will
reflect this commitment and desire to do good to others, which is the universal
calling, the manifestation of divinity. Can I add further to your question
this evening?

Marshall: On the tip of my tongue I have nothing else to say but I thank you
for your contribution Aaron.

* Aaron: Thank you for your question. I believe you will recognize more of
what I allude to as you peruse the lesson.

Marshall: Thank you.

* Aaron: At this time I will close for this evening. I do want to thank you
each for tuning in, so to speak, and may you find this increasing sense of
fellowship that is born in the commonalities of personalities manifesting in
the divine embrace. Your efforts will find fruit as you apply yourselves, and
I look forward to witnessing your growth and development along these lines.
Thank you.

Group: Thank you Aaron. Goodnight Aaron.
