A.R.E. Meeting for 5/4/26

Leader: Tim

Six salient students moved to the next chapter of Book I, which is “The Lord Thy God is One.” We discussed the opening quote on Oneness, and read the Introduction and section “The Manifestations of God Are One.”
 
Experiment: Examine your life and choose one way in which you are using energy which is not in accord with your ideals. This can be an emotional, attitudinal or active way of using energy. Write down what you select. Then demonstrate in your daily life your understanding of the inherent oneness of all force by transforming that energy to a more loving or constructive form. Record your experiences.
     Example: Feeling frustrated and angry with other drivers who are discourteous.
     Transformation: Changing your expression of the one energy by sending out to those people a prayer instead of thoughts of anger.
 
Experiment: In your daily meditation periods try to use distractions to take you deeper into a oneness with the meaning of your affirmation. Use each distraction as a gift. Have the attitude that says of each distracting thought, “Here is another great opportunity for me to bring some part of my life into the awareness of the oneness.”
