On Conservation 11/30/2010

As you were told long ago in the creation of your Universe, there is a limited
Quantity of The Absolute to be distributed among all the variables of your
Universe. Each Something manifested in your Universe has an original quantum
of The Absolute’s substance. You have also been given the directive to “Quantify
your Quality”. Therefore, some quantity of Universal substance must be taken
from Something in order to be added to another Something. Recently you were
advised about the importance of Dissemination in order for Growth to occur, and
what happens when Dissolution occurs. Dissolution, of course, reinvests the
dissolved substance back into the Universal reservoir to be used again and
again.
Consequently, nothing is ever entirely “lost”, only, in your vernacular,
“recycled”.
In that case, why is there an Intention of Conservation? This Intention is
necessary to prevent wanton destruction of species inherent to the health of the
various worlds which are contained within your Universe. Worlds have become
completely dissolved back into the Universe by the careless use of their
substances. If you would have your earth world remain a working unit of your
Universe, then it is up to you, its inhabitants, to conserve its resources.
The resources have been designed and provided for your welfare, and
thus are meant to be used, but not abused by use in the course of pursuing
selfish goals. A balance must be struck between use and replenishment of all
resources. Considering that one of your major material resources, oil, now in use
in many ways has been developed over eons of time, does it make sense to
continually extract it from the ground and burn it up in pollution-producing
machines?
There is much talk among you about renewable resources such as your
sun’s energy. This is not a vain endeavor, but even that resource is not limitlessly
renewable. Sooner or later, your sun will burn out, but that is in the design of your
Universe’s Intentions of which you have no knowledge and could not grasp even
if they were told to you. It is your responsibility to learn of the Intentions designed
for your earth, and work to fulfill them in order to complete the overall plan of your
Universe.
As you strive to conserve earthly resources, you enable the hierarchies of
power to do their jobs as well. Nothing you think or do is of little consequence.
Everything affects everything else.
You individually can begin to fulfill the Intention of Conservation by utilizing
your own resources of health, energy, knowledge, etc. to build a better life for
yourself, thus building a better life for everyone on your earth. You can witness
this beneficial effect in those nearest and dearest to you. You do not have to
know how something unknown to you is affected. We tell you this in order to
implant the seed of willing compliance within your consciousness. Your main
responsibility is to Quantify your Quality -- to become a greater person, to love
more generously, to embrace humankind in all its aspects as your brotherhood.
At the personal level, conserving personal possessions is a prime priority.
Do not discard to a landfill something that can be used by someone else who has
less than you have. You do not have to deny yourself anything to be conservative
in this way. Just give thought to the substance you throw in your trash. Can it be
composed? Will it keep a homeless person warm? Can it be used to repair
someone’s dwelling? Look for those places you can donate things you would
normally haul to your landfills. They are not hard to find. More and more social
conscience is rising to the call of Conservation, helping one’s fellow man, caring
for those who cannot care for themselves. Donate to your local food banks, coats
for kids, blankets for the homeless shelters.
This is an excellent way to clean out your closets and make space for that
which you will use day by day rather than cluttering up a garage, attic or storage
room with unused but still usable materials.
If you live in an area where there is no food bank -- start one. Talk to a
church official about a homeless shelter. There is no place on your earth there
are no underprivileged persons. You just need to give thought to the matter.
Conservation begins at the personal level. As Conservation permeates the
consciousness of the many, earthly resources benefit, new ideas are generated,
and civilization’s attributes are enhanced. You do not need to make a grand
gesture. Donate all those half-used pencils to a local school. It is true that your
public school system is somewhat elitist in its requirement that supplies be
purchased new, but there are many church schools, parochial schools, day care
centers, etc. that could use just such things as paper and pencils, used crayons,
refurbished toys. It will not take much effort on your part to find some little thing
you can do. It’s not important that anyone know about your actions except you
and others directly involved. This is not an activity intended to gain you a “good
citizenship” award. This is an activity necessary to the conservation of your own
planet, which then extends out to your solar system, galaxy and beyond.
This is your season of giving of gifts. Make it truly a season of
Conservation and then enjoy the benefits of an uplifted heart.
It is not only the materials of your environment that must be subject to
conservation. You and your planet are interdependent. So conservation of
yourself is as necessary as conservation of your planet. Use your energies and
strength wisely. Do not waste them on wishful thinking but use them in
conservation activity. Give yourself enough rest to replenish and heal your
physical, mental and emotional bodies. Nourish the cells of your physical body
with natural foods to whatever extent you can depending on your life’s
environment. City life is different from country life, but no matter where you live,
there are things you can do to benefit your many bodies through conservation.
Conserve your emotional energies. Do not waste emotional energy
agonizing over what might have been, or what you might have done. Let the past
be the past and look to what you can accomplish in the future. Honor yourself by
giving your bodies the freedom to experience joy, and not lock out joy through
regret, recrimination, vengeful thoughts or worry. Conservation of yourself is best
accomplished through trusting your Universe to supply your needs and trusting
yourself to supply your luxuries. Remember you were told to live voluptuously.
That means comforts, delights, indulgences, but not to the extent of costing your
various bodies their welfare. Enjoy food, but do not abuse the privilege. Enjoy
social activities, but not at the cost of your rest. Enjoy sex, but not at the cost of
your body’s strengths to fulfill other obligations. A healthy sex life is part of the
plan of Conservation. Do not deride the activity, or demote it to some shameful
hidden participation. Always make love a part of your sex life within the bounds of
human conservation. Abusing another’s body for one’s own satisfaction is
wasteful. If there is “sin” as such, wastefulness is certainly a major one.
Wasting life would be the worst “sin”. You have been given earth life for a
purpose, and Conservation is a major means to fulfilling that purpose. Use your
life wisely. Make it count for something more than mere existence. As you
Quantify your Quality, you also quantify the quality of your earthly home. Do
everything with joy. Infuse life on your planet with the joy of conservation, and
you will have an earthly home of greater value to yourself and all its inhabitants.
Conservation of life extends to the abuse of animals. It is not restricted to
the abuse of material resources. Do what you can to alleviate the suffering of all
living things on your planet. Only when you have successfully brought peace and
health to every being and every resource of your planet will Netsok be able to
abide with you.
Whatever you do in this earthly life to further the Intention of Conservation
increases the benefits you will enjoy as you leave earthly life and move on to
greater, more enhanced living in other dimensions and conditions.
The fundamentalist who believes in earning jewels in his heavenly crown
is not far off the mark in this regard. The smallest effort you make toward
Conservation earns you “points” to be counted in the rewards of the continued
life you will have as you move from earthly life to other conditions.
So now enjoy the wonders of your holiday season. Give generously of
your love. Make Conservation your motivation in as many of your activities as
you can. Most of all be generous with yourself. Permit yourself to be filled with
the joy available only through awareness of your participation in a greater
beingness. Replenish your spirit with song, celebration of life, and the rewards of
sharing. Go now in peace with our love and blessings.
