Leader: Sylvia
Thank you for taking these three into your prayer time
this week. (As per request for prayers from two members last night.) An
opportunity missed at the time by some. Justice is receiving hospital
care for more than one concerning diagnosis.
A time in silence shifted to ARE's ideal: Global Manifestation of Oneness and the Love of God and All people.
It brought to mind our own group ideal of Oneness.
ARE Mission Statement: To create opportunities for profound personal change in body, mind, and spirit through the wisdom found in the Edgar Cayce material.
Five faithful seekers found others had a good week experimenting with individual concepts of spreading love or being channels of love. One exception was three not so good days, exacerbated by a high stress workplace combined with exhaustion of noise interrupted sleep. (Is what we resist, persists, a true saying? Will a mental focus on WHAT WE WANT for ourselves change our reality PROFOUNDLY?) are concepts also discussed. And knowing God is Love led a member to actually see a God is Love sign being carried by a homeless person.
Intending to live a loving week defined as love is accepting and allowing, this member realized toward week's end that love can also be to find the beauty in others.
Another one saw in meditations the joyous, happy rose colored love going from the heart of God unto their own. This warmly joyous love was channeled to members and spread to others, heart to heart.
While we admitted none of us are actually as good in putting our ideas for spreading love into action as we would like to be, two members could maintain peace of mind and that connection to our loving nature by giving others the benefit of the doubt.
Stressed, worried, rushing people just cannot seem to be also aware of their effects on us as we'd like them to be. But the times we can just keep the flow of goodwill, of love going, accepting, and allowing those others space to endure whatever they are so overtaken by; they can't even notice us here, is a powerful, preventive tactic for self protection.
Spreading love mentally through allowing and acceptance, acting in kind, considerate, understanding took all the patience we could muster at times.
But wasn't having a good week, a positive week, seeing the best and the beauty in others so eye opening to our own sense of self, of faith, of knowing ourselves just a bit better? Priceless it was to your typist and especially just hearing us describe how we all could do it, at times patience-trying intenseness was required to just keep staying in that flow. Didn't we find it inspiring how our intention to spread love kept manifesting for all of us, and growing as we recognized it's not just me alone spreading love around, others are sharing it too. It's the beauty I see in others.
Our reader began on page 232 of subtitle, Turning Within, in the Edgar Cayce Primer. We received profound truths first spoken by a deeply sleeping Cayce. Within, we gain understanding that morphs into knowing.
To find GOD, all must go within. To heal, all healing comes from that contact with Spirit (GOD) within. Going within, we come to know ourselves truly.
For guidance, go within that temple in thine own body. Edgar and Hugh Lynn, as long as he lived (into the 80s) steered everyone away from mediums. It was a worldwide policy for ARE. Why? A topic for lengthy discussion:
Paraphrased- in the Old Testament story the warrior King Saul was scolded by an annoyed Samuel to be called back by a medium. He was too busy to be interrupted for a soon to be known anyway, fact. This began a no medium contact standard for upcoming Bible students, apparently.
Getting information from a medium is comparable to reading a book versus seeing the movie. In reading the book, we get all the facts and can imagine the characters and story accordingly. While in the filmed version, someone else gives us their potentially a bit flawed version of the story. So the medium-movie version is not the enlightened, straight from our temple, truth or Akash, if you will.
It's hard, uncomfortable work learning to do what we have never done. To get there, to learn to access that needed information ourselves, we must grow in mental strength, in patience, consistency, either developing spiritual qualities such as faith, or enhancing and expanding these precious gifts, those soul nurturing qualities.
Have you ever paid a medium to get guidance on the same issue three times? No? Has any one of us medium using, guidance seeking people ever gone to three different mediums to confirm the truth of what the first and second one got? Not this typist either.
But that's what Cayce recommended. Ask three times. That's our experiment.
Whatever you'd like guidance on, go within to that Temple within thine own body and ask three times.
So, let's pick our question, and take it within 3x as Cayce recommended. We can do this in three days, or three meditations! Shall we?
In Oneness of Divine Love,
Sylvia Raye
