My Dear Friends,
I did not want any of you to think I was not prepared to answer any challenge to the validity of the Song, as presently constituted, or any of the teachings, so I thought I would leave it up to the group as to whether any more explanation of Angela's challenge was needed.
Sorry Xavier, but the group seems to want us to move on here. On the other hand if any of you have specific concerns about Angela's comments, feel free to ask. The post was over 400 lines and it would have taken some time to cover in detail.
I will repeat an important point. Those who are not into the consciousness generated by the Song will either quit "singing" it or alter the meaning thereof, and thus not singing it by another method.
I have to go out of town for a few days again. This time is a little more joyful - a wedding rather than a funeral. I'll be back Sunday and will be posting again Sunday evening or Monday, all being well.
I think some sense that we are at a point of tension in our progression as a group and that I am on the verge of presenting you with a great revelation, one that will link the kingdom of God with the human kingdom, one that will alter the identity of the disciple from human to something more than human. This is briefly hinted at in the Immortal Book, where there is a mention about the order that creates the Tree of Life. In this age it will be called The Molecular Relationship.
Whenever an individual or a group is on the verge of a leap forward of some kind, there always seems to be a force that arrives on the scene to distract the ATTENTION from the next step ahead.
Even in my personal life I have sensed a force trying to take my attention away from the group. What the pilgrim must ALWAYS do is to put his or her ATTENTION on the next step and not let anything distract him. If he allows anything to distract, then he will usually retrogress for a time, sometimes a long time.
I'm short on time tonight and am not able to write more about either the Gathering or the Molecular Relationship, but we will continue on this line of thought when I return.
In the meantime, I have written an article that may be of interest to some. It is called The Bible and Reincarnation. For those who have studied reincarnation it will not present any new vistas of knowledge. Even so, all should find it of some interest because most people believe that this principle is not taught in the Bible. When some religious neighbor condemns you out of the Bible because you may believe the principle, you may find yourself thinking there is no defense possible from the scriptures.
Ah, but there is a defense for reincarnation, alluded to throughout the Bible. I'll tell you what is fun. When Jehovah Witnesses knock on your door, invite them in and share with them some of the scriptures in this article. They will turn pale and never darken your door again. I think they put some type of marker on my house to warn others about me, because they never come around any more - neither does the Mormon missionaries.
I'll post the first section before I leave, and may be able to post more from my boy's place depending on circumstances.
