My Friends,
I know that to some of you business is a boring subject. Nevertheless our jobs have more power over our lives and demand more attention, than do all the spiritual teachings in the world, or the inner God itself. Is it not logical that to truly bring in the new age we must make those 40+ hours a week where we dedicate our priority strength a spiritual place to spend our time? Is it not logical that we make the product of all that energy a benefit for the whole as well as the self?
The past has been an age of dreams. The age of Aquarius is the age where dreams come true. But to make them come true takes action as well as thoughts, words and meditation. Action is the most difficult step to take for in taking action we unravel our illusions and it takes courage to face our illusions.
I hope you enjoy the parable I am posting. If read in the right spirit a degree of soul contact will be felt and a apprehension of the importance of perfecting business in this age will be sensed.
The lull in postings because of this subject is not surprising. I see though that LeLona will not let things lag for long.
Business is not a subject that dreamers such as you and me naturally put as a high priority. Personally, my soul has dragged me into the business world kicking and screaming. I would much rather be teaching, writing, learning mystical things, maybe vacationing in the Caribbean. Yet when I see the vision of things to come I know that the natural resistance to the energies of the New Age must be dropped and a new understanding must come. The time must come that the power and money of the world is controlled by the unselfish rather than the selfish.
This cannot happen by force as some mislead reformers in the past have taught. A good and holy idea implemented by force becomes a great evil. All the thoughts of God must be brought about by the free will and understanding of mankind. When this happens then the ideals of mankind (which for ages have been deemed impossible) will become manifest.
Some have suggested that we go off on more interesting subjects, even return to the Book of Revelation, but when we were on the Book of Revelation some wanted to get off on other subjects.
The fact is this. No matter what subject we are on it will not be everyone's favorite, but just keep this in mind. Probably 90 per cent of us hated English (or whatever language you were forced to learn) when we were in school, but it's a good thing our teachers guided us into learning it or we couldn't even communicate here on the Internet.
I am trying to guide us as a group in the direction of the Aquarian energies and the inner world of soul contact. Piece by piece the sections covered may not make a lot of sense or be our natural inclination of interest, but when we put the pieces together and more and more of the whole picture is seen then the inner stirrings of the Spirit will confirm the time has been well spent.
Rick mentioned that he would like us to talk more about soul contact. This is perhaps the most important subject that we can ever cover, for when we reach contact together then we can only be united. Be mindful that this subject is always in session. Every teaching that I give should be tested with it and as you begin to sift the truth of things taught by myself and others you will find your sensitivity to contact will increase.
Pondering on the questions I give you will also help your contact.
Then every now and then I will make comments directly related to increasing contact and will now ask a question that will lead us in that direction.
Near the end of Book Two we discovered that an important key word linked to the principle of DECISION is ATTENTION. How can DECISION and ATTENTION be used to increase soul contact?
We are not done with the three key words of Aquarius yet, but this question should add some fuel to the interest of the group.
