freedom emerged within the fabric of our awareness
during opening statements at a level of (5) on the (1-12) scale of s.f. intensity, on the 3rd of (5x)

beloved Mother, for extending the gift of life to me for
yet another day. 5/20/2001 Sun. | |
| In the course of our decree work it is a
matter of choosing how the spiral of your awareness will be
orientated. Will you choose to allow your awareness to spiral in a downward direction to embrace
the synthetic scenarios produced by the human mind, or spiral in an upward direction to embrace
the real scenarios produced by the Christ Mind? In other words, will you allow your mind to spiral
downwards into a sense of boredom and its accompanying desire to go sit in front of the television
set, or spiral upwards into the real sense of purpose associated with this precious opportunity to
work shoulder to shoulder with the ascended hosts for the victory of God's
will? 5/20/2001 Sun. |
| Granted, the veil that masks the higher
reality makes it far easier to spiral down, than to spiral up.
But one must make the effort to thrust the awareness into an upward spiral to embrace what you
know is real, even if you cannot actually see it in the present moment. Take the promise of the
ascended masters, and thrust your awareness upwards to embrace those promises, beginning with
"The call compels the answer." 5/20/2001 Sun. | |

This is the 63rd consecutive day of the
Linda Healing Project.Ritual
outline: We begin the ritual after our a.m. decree service, which places it generally in the
early afternoon. Leaving the sanctuary we go and change our clothes, and then proceed to the
kitchen, remove ten dog biscuits from the jar, and chop them in half to yield a total of twenty
pieces. Ten for Linda, and ten for Max. We
proceed to the sanctuary, kneel at the altar, explain our goals, and ask for assistance. This includes
a request that a squad of nature spirits and elementals be assigned to tutor Linda in recognizing the
difference between friend and foe, and sword work to cut Linda free from her fear and all
aggressive tendencies. For the final step of our prayer work, we give our Linda Healing Prayer
(15x) visualizing her cradled in our arms: "My Beloved God Presence, I Am That I Am, please
allow Linda to feel your precious friendship, your precious love, your precious comfort, your
precious peace, and your precious healing power. Please bestow upon Linda the intelligence that
will enable her to recognize the difference between friend and foe."
We depart the sanctuary, taking the white hand bell
from the altar, proceed into the garage, ring the hand bell, open the main garage door, and walk
over to the front gate.
We ring the hand bell again, open the gate, say good
morning to Linda and Max, and walk over to the chain link fence. We feed two biscuits to each
dog and give them a pat on the head, in this order, Max, Linda, Max, Linda. We repeat "We love
you Linda/Max" as we interact with each dog.
We then open the gate and pull the two trash barrels
outside of the gate, walk back inside the gate, close the gate, and walk over to the chain link fence.
We feed two biscuits to each dog and give them a pat on the head, in this order, Max, Linda, Max,

each dog two more biscuits and a pat on the head, in this order, Max, Linda, Max,

We then open the gate, pull the two trash barrels

gate, walk back over to the fence and give each dog two more biscuits and a pat on the head, in
this order, Max, Linda, Max, Linda.
That done, I say "Goodbye, have a nice day", close the
gate, ring the hand bell, walk into the garage and close the garage door.
We then proceed into the kitchen to wash our hands and
arms up to the elbow, and into the bedroom to change our clothes. |
First, I
have to observe the fact that as
we entered into the work of giving our (15x) Linda Healing Prayers at the end of the sanctuary
prayer work: "My Beloved God Presence, I Am That I Am, please allow Linda to feel your
precious friendship, your precious love, your precious comfort, your precious peace, and your
precious healing power. Please bestow upon Linda the intelligence that will enable her to recognize
the difference between friend and foe," we were confronted with the pressure not do so many
repetitions. This pressure carried the very strong intimation that we did not have the time to do so
many repetitions, that time was running short, so let's get on with this, hurry hurry hurry. But we
were able to confront that pressure with the realization that there could not possibly be anything
more important than to focus our attention on enlisting the aid of our own Beloved God Presence
in this work, and that it was the more important, because this is the only time during the day that
we actually direct our attention to our God Presence in a very specific, focused, and project
oriented manner. So this is time well spent. After six repetitions, the glow of the sacred fire of
paradise emerged within the fabric of our awareness at a level of (5) to (6) on the (1-12) scale of
s.f. intensity.
There are couple of things that we want to say about this
before we move on. First of all, it might seem rather odd to the reader, in light of the many
experiences we have had with the presence of the sacred fire, that this prayer ritual represents the
"only time during the day that we actually direct our attention to our God Presence in a very
specific, focused, and project oriented manner." But, one must understand that we start out on the
path immersed within a mode of awareness that directs absolutely no attention to the individual
God Presence; absolutely none, zero. And we must recognize that this substrate of neglect is the
central nature of the synthetic identity which the soul has woven around itself like so many
thousands of iron chains, which pins the awareness of the soul into material/horizontal modes of
thought. We must understand that it takes time to transmute these chains, and to establish patterns
of thought in their place that are spiritual and thus oriented to the vertical. These new patterns of
vertical thought are like unto growing little feathers on our wings. Each new little feather, taken by
itself, will not allow us to fly, but at some point there will be enough feathers, when taken together,
that will allow us to actually implement periods of vertical flight. Therefore, we must realize that
our thoughts do not all of a sudden take on the ability to rise into the realm of the perfectly
vertical, because they are still tied down by patterns/chains of doubt, and uncertainty concerning
our true identity, concerning the identity of the God, and the God Presence in particular. So when
our thoughts begin to rise to God, they begin to rise only obliquely, i.e. at oblique angles to the
highest and most relevant reality, which is the God Presence. Thoughts that rise directly to the
God Presence represent an angle of oblique offset of 0 degrees, i.e. perfectly straight up. By
comparison, the thoughts of atheists represent an oblique offset of 180 degrees. The mass
consciousness in general represents an angle of oblique offset of anywhere between 180 degrees
and 90 degrees depending on our deeply orientated a person is to the material. The thoughts of
those who have any religious leaning at all have an oblique offset of something less than 90
degrees, which is to say that their thoughts are rising to the vertical, but at a very shallow angle.
The thoughts of those who find the Teachings of the Ascended Masters, and step onto the path of
initiation for the first time, will have an angle of oblique offset of something less than 90 degrees,
because they believe in God, and have an interest in finding out more about God. But their
thoughts rise to God in terms of very indirect and uncertain conceptions. As we continue on the
path the angle of oblique offset of our thoughts must and will gradually decrease towards zero. So
the fact that this prayer ritual represents the "only time during the day that we actually direct our
attention to our God Presence in a very specific, focused, and project oriented manner," is simply
an observation that we have finally arrived at a point on the path where we are capable of
consecrating a certain portion of our day to the task of raising our thoughts into the realm of the
vertical, perhaps not at a perfect angle of zero, but close to it. The goal of course is to be able to
maintain a mode of thought that is perfectly vertical every moment of the day. But we can only
arrive there in a gradual manner. The first step towards that end is arriving at the point where the
soul is determined to consecrate at least some portion of the day to perfectly vertical thought. The
Linda Healing Ritual provides me with a circumstantial context in which we can begin to do that,
where we know that the only way that this barking problem will get solved is for us to establish a
working relationship with our God Presence.
I would further observe that appearance of the glow of
the sacred fire of paradise within the fabric of our awareness during the course of these Linda
Healing Prayers, adds additional momentum and strength to this process of increasing the
verticality of our thoughts. In other words, from the very beginning of the path, when we learn
about the God Presence, we live within a state of uncertainty in regards to exactly what is the God
Presence, who is the God Presence, how do we contact the God Presence, what will that contact
be like, what kind of relationship will the soul have with the God Presence etc. etc. etc. What does
it really mean to have direct contact with the God Presence? This is the greatest question that a
soul can have answered, because each piece of the answer, and the answer does come in pieces, is
a step towards reunion. In this regard, in the Linda Healing Prayer, we have our attention focused
completely on this goal of bringing forth the reality of our God Presence to help us solve this
particular barking problem. As noted above, as we gave these prayers today, that we were
confronted with a strong pressure of opposition to this effort, which would have us skip over this
effort entirely. But we push that opposition aside by affirming the importance of establishing this
contact with our God Presence. In other words, we clearly have it set in our mind that the reason
we are proceeding forward with these prayers, over the objection of the opposition, is because it is
important to make the effort to reestablish a working relationship with our God Presence.
Therefore, with that context set, as we continue the prayers, the glow of the sacred fire of paradise
emerges within the fabric of our awareness. Ok. What conclusion do we draw from this
emergence of the sacred fire of paradise? Where does it come from? The conclusion to draw,
given this context, is inescapable. We conclude that the presence of paradise was extended by our
own God Presence. Of course we have already had a revelation that our God Presence is the
presence of paradise. The reader will remember that from a previous recordings and notes as well
that this particular revelation is part of our divine revelation recollection affirmations. During each
week day decree service we repeat (15x): "The revelation of our God Presence as the presence of
paradise." But I can report that we have had the presence of paradise emerge within the fabric of
our awareness on many occasions in the course of our regular decree work in the days after we
were given that revelation, and that we do not as a rule connect that presence of paradise with our
God Presence. From this, we can conclude, that even given direct revelations of origin, that it
takes time, for the reasons stated above, for the soul to shift its thought patterns into a greater level
of verticality, i.e. into alignment with those direct revelations. And this really has a lot to do with
the level of determination that the soul is building up within the fiber of its being. Determination is
a very interesting quality, made up of consciously directed will power, i.e. will power focused
towards a particular purpose, with the conception of purpose associated with the soul's level of
understanding and knowledge. Specifically, this experience today, of the emergence of the
presence of paradise within such a very well-defined context, adds an additional increment to our
reservoir of determination to accept and recognize that every emergence of the presence of
paradise
within the fabric of our awareness is the result of an extension of power from my own Beloved
God Presence.
Now it is important to note that in hindsight, that we
have been the recipient of the presence of the sacred fire during our devotional periods beginning
way back in 1983 during our first quarter of Summit University at Camelot. And we have
consistently been the recipient of that glow of the sacred fire ever since i.e. during our decree
services primarily, but more consistently, and more powerfully over the last year or so. But it has
taken, counting from the year 1983, about seventeen and half years for us to bring the general
orientation of our thought processes to a level of verticality that represents the first appearance of
the capacity to accept, within the domain of personal relevance, the reality of the God Presence in
general, to accept the fact that the power of the God Presence is manifest in the divine power that
emerges within the fabric of our awareness during our devotional periods, and what is most
important, the first appearance of the real and living desire to incorporate the reality of our God
Presence into the fabric of our life in a conscious and determined manner.
Linda began to bark when we rang the hand bell while
inside of the garage. When we first began to ring it there was initially no reaction, but after a while
we could hear a couple of muffled woofs, and a full bark as we opened the garage door. As we
looked over the gate we saw the Jorge's wife and his little child, about two years old I would
guess, were standing at the gate at the backyard end of the dog pen area. I asked her if it was ok to
proceed with the biscuit feeding ritual, and she nodded her assent. I am wondering if she speaks
English. She might not. We proceeded with the ritual. Jorge's wife and little boy stayed there
until the first movement of the trash barrels, while we fed 2 biscuits to each dog. Before I moved
the trash barrels I explained to her that I was trying to teach Linda not to bark at the movement of
the trash barrels. After I moved the trash barrels outside of the gate Jorge's wife led the little boy
away and out of site into their backyard. The remainder of the ritual proceeded without any
further unusual circumstances.
Linda did not bark at any of the movements of the trash
barrels, not the first, not the second, not the third, and not the fourth.
We decided not to use the old leather collar as a part of
the biscuit feeding ritual itself.
We continued in our efforts to incorporate the extended
interaction plan with Linda during each biscuit feeding. We try to grab her paw and pet her before
we give her the biscuit. She shows some resistance to having her paws held while her mind is on
the biscuit. We tried a couple of times to put the biscuit back in our pocket while she is standing
up, to give us some time to pet her, but as soon as the biscuit leaves her immediate sight, she will
want to get down and go looking for it. I am still wondering whether she is short sighted. What we
have to do is to grab her paw with the biscuit still in our right hand, and she can probably feel the
biscuit against her skin. She will actively try to pull her paw away. As an alternative, we made the
effort to hold the biscuit in front of her and slowly lower it down to my pocket so she would not
lose sight of it, and then raise it back up slowly. The first couple of times she would not follow it.
But at the end, on the last two or three biscuit feedings we got her to follow it down with her eyes,
and then back up. By comparison, Max knows exactly where those biscuits come from. When
my hand goes down to my pocket, he knows that a biscuit will come out of that pocket.
Max was fairly well behaved during this ritual, giving me
time to work with Linda. On a couple of occasions he actually stood back and looked like he was
consciously being patient and waiting for his turn.
At the end of the ritual we took the old leather collar and
shook it at Linda, and Linda went into her play mode, but that play mode involved wrestling with
Max, and ignoring me for quite a while. Linda was playing the submissive role during this play
period with Max. Finally, Linda did step up to the fence a couple of times to be petted.
One thing that struck me very clearly, is that when Linda
i s in her happy dog play mode, she is just a regular happy dog. And that we can understand why
Jorge had so much difficulty taking us seriously about the problem of Linda barking. His only
experience with Linda is that she is a happy dog. That is the face that she portrays to Jorge at all
times. While Jorge is around occasionally when Linda is in her barking mode, I imagine that he
actually sees with his own eyes, and hears with his own ears, only about 1% of the occasions
when Linda is barking at noises that we make on this side of the fence. He is at work on 98% of
those occasions, and he is inside of their house and unconscious of the problem during the other
1%. [c-notes recorded in

On our way to the grocery store this
evening we were listening to our Christmas music tape as usual, and during the song, "O Come All
ye Faithful," sung by Bing Crosby, we entered for a brief moment into that precious spirit of
Christmas that we have always associated with the presence and intercession of the Christmas
Angels. The important point here is that we have not experienced the presence of the Christmas
Angels since 1984, a time when our life revolved completely around the community of Camelot.
Therefore, it is a very precious event to again register this contact with the Christmas Angels once
again. We were giving our Michael protection calls at the time the contact was made. The
experience was repeated on our way home from the store during the song, "What Child is This?"
sung by Johnny Mathis (This song was taken from "World's Most Loved Christmas Classics,"
Album 2, published by Reader's Digest. 5/20/2001

descend upon the entire landscape of being. 5/20/2001

| While we were in the grocery store, as
usual we are listening, through a set of earphones, to an audio tape, using a cassette player that is
clipped to the waistband of our shorts. We have the music turned up to a level that masks the
background music that is playing over the store loud speakers. We are listening to the tape we
made of our favorite selections from the (3) CD set, "Treasury of 101 Best-Loved Hymns,"
published by Heartland Music. After we retrieved the usual box of dog biscuits from the pet food
section, the selection entitled "This is my Father's World" came up, and I have to report that our
heart responded to that music with a veritable symphony of joy and wonder right there on the floor
of the grocery market! Of course we listen to this tape every time we do our grocery shopping.
But this is the first time we have had such deep and expansive response to this music within the
context of our grocery shopping activity. This is what the soul should be experiencing constantly,
i.e. a very radiant condition of the deepest and most profound state of adoration and awe before
the glory of God. [expanded during

May 21,
2001 | The Chaplain, the Reverend Daniel P. Coughlin, offered the
following prayer:
O Lord, this Nation has sought Your blessing from one generation to the
next. Before we were brought into being, You are God, without beginning or end.
Time moves quickly, but in Your eyes 200 years are like yesterday,
come and gone. Be with us now.
Bless this Chamber and all its Members and activities. From page to
Parliamentarian, from guide to gardener, bless those who labor here, contributing in great and
small measure to historic government and a productive future.
At any moment some in this busy world may seem to avoid work. By
Your holy inspiration, bring about true freedom across this land. May all choose daily tasks where
they find respect and personal dignity, assuring their own independence and creativity while
providing support to loved ones and quality service to others.
Let Your glory be revealed in Your servants and grant success to the
work of our hands. Grant success to the work of our hands now and forever. Amen. | The Chaplain, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, offered the following
prayer:
Gracious Father, we pray for the women and men of this Senate. May
they feel awe and wonder that You have chosen them through the voice of Your people. May they
live this day humbly on the knees of their hearts, honestly admitting their human inadequacy and
gratefully acknowledging Your power. Dwell in the secret places of their hearts to give them peace
and security. Help them in their offices, with their staffs, in committee meetings, and when they
are here together in this sacred, historic Chamber. Remind them of their accountability to You for
all they say and do. Reveal Yourself to them. Be the unseen Friend beside them in every changing
circumstance. Give them a fresh experience of Your palpable and powerful Spirit. Banish
weariness and worry, discouragement and disillusionment. Often today may we hear Your voice
saying to us, ``Come to me, all who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest.'' Lord,
help us all to rest in You and receive the incredible resiliency that You provide. Thank You in
advance for a truly productive day. In the name of our Lord.
Amen. |

| Immediately on our entry into our
Cosmic Clock prayers (remember: the Cosmic Clock Calculator runs automatically at the end of

the glow of the sacred fire of peace, freedom and paradise, appears within the fabric of our

in stark contrast to the barrier of inertia we are facing as we enter into our work. It does not sweep
away the barrier, it simply stands juxtaposed to it, as a completely different reality. The inertia
says, "I can't imagine how we are going to ever get into this work. Let's go rest, we really need to
rest, and the best place to do that would be in front of the t.v. set." The sacred fire speaks from
exactly the opposite viewpoint. And of course it is of a great help to us in moving forward in spite
of the inertia. Sort of like a narrow bridge of solid rock, perfectly dry, that leads through the
towering and undulating waves of the astral sea. [c-notes recorded in office] 5/21/2001

| This
is the 64th consecutive day of the Linda Healing
Project. Ritual outline: We begin the ritual after
our a.m. decree service, which places it generally in the early afternoon. Leaving the sanctuary we
go and change our clothes, and then proceed to the kitchen, remove ten dog biscuits from the jar,
and chop them in half to yield a total of twenty pieces. Ten for Linda, and ten for Max. We
proceed to the sanctuary, kneel at the altar, explain our goals, and ask for assistance. This includes
a request that a squad of nature spirits and elementals be assigned to tutor Linda in recognizing the
difference between friend and foe, and sword work to cut Linda free from her fear and all
aggressive tendencies. For the final step of our prayer work, we give our Linda Healing Prayer
(15x) visualizing her cradled in our arms: "My Beloved God Presence, I Am That I Am, please
allow Linda to feel your precious friendship, your precious love, your precious comfort, your
precious peace, and your precious healing power. Please bestow upon Linda the intelligence that
will enable her to recognize the difference between friend and
foe."
We depart the sanctuary, taking the white hand bell
from the altar, proceed into the garage, ring the hand bell, open the main garage door, and walk
over to the front gate.
We ring the hand bell again, open the gate, say good
morning to Linda and Max, and walk over to the chain link fence. We feed two biscuits to each
dog and give them a pat on the head, in this order, Max, Linda, Max, Linda. We repeat "We love
you Linda/Max" as we interact with each dog.
We then open the gate and pull the two trash barrels
outside of the gate, walk back inside the gate, close the gate, and walk over to the chain link fence.
We feed two biscuits to each dog and give them a pat on the head, in this order, Max, Linda, Max,
Linda. We repeat "We love you Linda/Max" as we interact with each dog. We then open the gate,
pull the trash barrels back inside of the gate, close the gate, walk back over to the fence and give
each dog two more biscuits and a pat on the head, in this order, Max, Linda, Max,
Linda.
We then open the gate, pull the two trash barrels
outside of the gate again, walk back inside the gate, close the gate, and walk over to the chain link
fence. We feed two biscuits to each dog and give them a pat on the head, in this order, Max,
Linda, Max, Linda. We then open the gate, pull the trash barrels back inside of the gate, close the
gate, walk back over to the fence and give each dog two more biscuits and a pat on the head, in
this order, Max, Linda, Max, Linda.
That done, I say "Goodbye, have a nice day", close the
gate, ring the hand bell, walk into the garage and close the garage door.
We then proceed into the kitchen to wash our hands and
arms up to the elbow, and into the bedroom to change our clothes. |
Today, we are beginning the ritual
about 3:30pm. We decided to get our exercise session out of the way first. This puts us well past
the early afternoon starting time mentioned in the ritual outline above.
Linda does not bark at the ringing of the hand bell inside
of the garage, though we can hear her let out a couple of muffled woofs. She begins to bark when
we arrived at the gate and looked over and rang the hand bell for the second time, and continued
to bark as we opened the gate and walked inside and over to the fence. Once the biscuit feeding
ritual began, there was no more barking, i.e. at least until the end.
Linda did not bark at the first movement of the trash
barrels, or the second movement of the trash barrels, or the third movement of the trash barrels, or
the fourth movement of the trash barrels.
But today, we had a fifth movement of the trash barrels,
and we had a couple of extra dog biscuits to cover this situation. This is something new that we
are trying. Tomorrow morning is trash collection day, so we need to get the trash barrels out to
the curb side. Up to this time we were taking the trash barrels out in the early morning after our
walk. But at that time it is dark, and we never incorporated biscuit feeding in that chore, and
Linda would naturally bark and bark and bark at that noise. Well, we finally decided that we
should incorporate the need to take the trash barrels out to the curbside prior to the Tuesday
morning pickup, into the Monday afternoon ritual. We have the regulate four movements of the
trash barrels, i.e. take them out, bring them in, take them out, bring them in. What we did here
was simply roll the barrels out to the curbside after the biscuit feeding that followed the fourth
barrel movement. This of course generated an extra dimension of noise associated with rolling
the barrels from the gate out to the curb side. Linda did not bark at the noise made by the first
barrel, but she did bark at the noise made by the second barrel, and she barked at me when I came
back inside of the gate to give the dogs one more biscuit. I was hoping that this was going to be
the day where we could say that we actually got the trash barrels out to the curb side without Linda
barking at all. But, that was not the case today. I counted maybe a total of three or four barks.
Of course it helps to have the perspective of what it used to be like before we inaugurated this
ritual some two months ago. Before that, with any movement of the trash barrels Linda would
simply freak out. And she would bark and bark and bark and bark and bark and bark and bark.
So here we have no barks at five movements of the trash barrels, i.e. out, in, out, in, out, within
the proximity of the dog pen area. Here, Linda was barking only at the noise created by rolling the
trash barrels down the driveway and out to the curb side. This is definite progress.
Overall, Max was very well behaved, and gave me plenty
of time to work with Linda to implement our extended interaction plan.
In terms of the ratio between eagerness and reluctance,
we are back to nearly complete reluctance on Linda's part. On every biscuit we had to reach
down and wave it in her face for her to get the idea that she needs to stand up and get it. Both
dogs have less energy at this time of the day, and I that is the tradeoff we are making. We want to
have Max as subdued as possible. But Linda is also subdued.
In this context, I did see an interesting shift in behavior
on Linda's part today. After I pet Max and give him his biscuit, he will get down on all fours to
chew it up. At that point its Linda's turn. But the first thing that Linda does when Max gets his
biscuit is to go see what Max is chewing on. I have to say, "Linda! It's your turn, here's your
biscuit!" And I reach down over the top of the fence and wave it at her to get her attention, and
then she will stand up to go for it. (Once she stands up to get it, we are able to pet her, and grab
her paws and give them a friendly shake or two and another pat on the head, and she gets her
biscuit.) This need to check out what Max is chewing on before she looks for her own biscuit was
fairly constant throughout the biscuit feeding until at the end, during the last couple of feedings, we
could see that the time she spent looking at what Max was chewing on was getting much shorter. I
would estimate that at the beginning, she would spend about 5 seconds looking at what Max was
chewing on, before we could get her attention. During the last two or three biscuit feedings, that
time was down to about 1 to 2 seconds.
There was a short play period at the end of this session.
The leather collar has lost some of its magic. We had to shake it Linda for a long time before we
could her to stand up against the fence in her friendly mode. But she finally did, and she enjoyed
being petted. So again, we are encouraged that we can see that inside of Linda there really is a
happy dog. [c-notes recorded in

| | p.m. decree service in
sanctuary |
The moment we opened our mouth for
our opening statements, the glow of the sacred fire of peace and freedom appeared within the
fabric of our awareness at a level of (1) on the (1-12) scale of s.f. intensity. 5/21/2001 Mon. |
| On the 4th repetition of (12x) Tubes of
Light, the glow of the sacred fire of peace, freedom, and paradise, expanded to a level (6) to (7)
on the (1-12) scale of s.f. intensity, with a highlighted glow at the 3rd eye chakra
area. 5/21/2001 Mon. | |
| The glow of the sacred fire of peace and
freedom appears within the fabric of our awareness on the 10th repetition of (15x) Hail Marys, at
a level of (6) on the (1-12) scale of s.f. intensity. 5/21/2001
Mon. |
| The glow of the sacred fire of paradise, at
a level of (5) to (6), appears within the fabric of our awareness during our (3x) prayers to Beloved
Sanat Kumara and Lady Master Venus: "Beloved Sanat Kumara and Lady Master Venus, please
help me to come into alignment with the most fundamental and basic truth in the universe, that
God deserves my utmost respect. Please help me to develop the capacity to extend the utmost
respect unto our Father/Mother God at all times and under all circumstances." 5/21/2001 Mon. | |
| One of the most important ways we can
honor God is to honor the promises made by the Ascended Masters, beginning with, "The call
compels the answer." 5/21/2001 Mon. |
| During the preparatory prayers which
proceed this set of (5x) Hail Marys: "Beloved Mother Mary and Raphael, please help me to come
into alignment with the most fundamental and basic truth in the entire universe, that God deserves
my utmost respect and highest esteem. Please help me to develop the capacity to extend that
utmost respect and highest esteem unto our Father/Mother God at all times and under all
circumstances, even unto our own Beloved God Presence. Please help me to come into alignment
with the second most fundamental truth in the entire universe, that God deserves to be honored at
all times and under all circumstances. Please help me to develop the capacity to extend that honor
unto our Father/Mother God at all times and under all circumstances, even unto our own Beloved
God Presence," the glow of the sacred fire of peace and freedom appeared within the fabric of
our awareness at a level of (5) on the (1-12) scale of s.f. intensity, and continued on through the
subsequent 5x repetitions. 5/21/2001 Mon. | |
| The glow of the sacred fire of peace and
freedom takes a solid hold during the latter part of our (1x) Series, beginning with the (1x) I Am
Light all, at a level of (6) on the (1-12) scale of s.f. intensity. 5/21/2001 Mon. |
| Through most of this decree service, we
had to face a very unusual configuration of opposition which began when my throat started to
hurt. This was a definite pain in my throat, and that pain would constantly bring forward the
desire to quit, or at least to cut the service short. Usually we can quickly get past the desire to take
a break from our decree work. That delusion can usually be dispatched in the first few minutes of
the service. But this pain in my throat served as a nexus for that false desire, keeping it alive
throughout the entire service. On several occasions, even when the sacred fire glow appeared, we
did not have the will power to stop and record those entries.
We pressed through nevertheless with nearly the full complement of decrees, and our throat does
not seem to be any worse off for the effort. 5/21/2001
