Session #28 – November 19, 1983
Gloria’s Circle

Present: Bonnie Wisz, Ida Nevala, Larry and Eileen Horton, Myra Perala, Richard
and Mary White, Owen and Maxine Cramer.

Sheariam: Good evening students and friends. How are you this evening? We
have decided that we shall change the order of the agenda for tonight. We will have
our lesson first, and then as time and energy permits, we will discuss other matters
such as your meditations. If you would then, turn to your notes on previous
explanations given to you, and we will study the fourth law, (Process) That is
correct. What is the Attribute? (Beauty) Correct. And the Principle?
(Differentiation.)
Now as given before, we talked about Ideation and the Wisdom which
pertains, and the Archangel Ratziel. What does Ratziel mean? (To run with. To
delight in.) What were the meanings given to the sounds of that name? (Several
answering). That is correct. The Inner Fire which is the Divine Fire in manifestation
becomes conscious of itself, and therein lies the delight. In the self-knowing lies the
wisdom. Now we move forward into the Law of Process and the Archangel Raphael.
Again, the “r” sound is the name as given before, as is the “ah”. The “ph”
sound represents universal consciousness individualized as it became self-knowing,
then individuation. As you establish an idea, you in effect set aside a portion of
Divine Energy, and it becomes not only self-aware but individualized. Can you
understand the distinction? (Myra: No. Could you say that again, please?) The
Absolute may be self-aware, but not individualized, because it is infinite. The Divine
Fire, which is an emanation of The Absolute, is a part of The Absolute, as yet
unaware of Itself. Then as it becomes self-conscious, it can develop individuation.
What is the meaning of Raphael? (To make and keep whole.) This is the act
of integration. Now we are dealing with the Law of Process, and we talked about the
Principle of Differentiation. When something becomes individualized, it becomes
different from all else. Can you see this? Self-consciousness does not necessarily
differentiate. Can you see that? (Myra; Yes. You can be so wrapped up in yourself that
you don’t notice you’re different.)
When we discussed Process before, you were told that it initiated, or became
the basis for, time in this experience on earth. Time is a convention of your
particular planet. There is time on other planets which is particularized by their
relationship to their environment, even as it is on this planet. The Law of Process
adheres in every instance of individuation. It is “process” which differentiates one
thing from another. As you take the Divine Emanation at the Omega Points, all
would appear to be identical. It is in the process of these beginnings moving toward
completion that each becomes different.
Before you can begin to invoke these powers in the creative effort, you must
learn more about all of the laws. In the meantime, you were assigned the
responsibility for establishing an idea which you wish to place in motion. This idea is
not necessarily one which will be shared with the group, or with anyone else, but
something peculiar to yourself. It can be highly personal. But it can be anything. But
from this beginning point of ideation, we would ask that you select a particular idea
you wish to manifest so as to follow through in all the steps on the same idea.
Now we have discussed consent. As some of you made certain contributions
previously about your ideas of consent, I would give you tonight some additional
things to think about. In the Law of Ideation, you have the Principle of Migration,
which is flowing with the rhythm of the universe. As you consent to be in the flow of
the universe, you then come into the alignment with the Divine Wisdom. If you
follow the flow, then you will always be in the right place, at the right time, in the
right condition.
Obstacles in your lives, painful experiences, diseases of the body, unhappy
emotions, disturbed mental processes are all things evident of being out of
synchronicity with the Flow of the Universal Intent. You may work very, very hard
to accomplish something, and nothing seems to go right for you. And you have been
told to persevere. There is a sales slogan much prevalent in your society now,
“When the going gets tough, the tough get going.” This is all well and good, but the
thing which you are attempting to accomplish bites you. That is a sure sign that you
are not in the flow.
Now you may well say, “I know that something must be done at a particular
time. If I do not meet that deadline, or fulfill that responsibility, there will come a
time when I will end up in a bigger mess, because I have not done that thing.” I
would say to you that by laying back, by allowing yourself to go with the flow,
rather than fighting the task, even if you find yourself in a mess, so to speak, it is
better because you were meant to accomplish that thing under these circumstances
for a reason.
As you have been given many times before, there is nothing without purpose.
There are no accidents. You, as a self-conscious being, an individualized person, can
choose to do things against the flow. If you choose to go with the flow, your life will
be much easier, and the messes will not occur. You get into messes not because of
one thing but because of many things.
Thus, if you flow and all things in your life flow, there will be no damming up
of the energies. There will be nothing out of alignment. If you allow the natural
process to follow its divine course, then you will be in the flow. Thus, you would
have perfect health. Your life would be a joy. This is not to say that you should not
work hard. It is when the hard work does not accomplish enough to justify the
effort put forth, that you should have a clue that you are not in the flow. Being in
the flow means to consent to flowing with it. But it does require self-consciousness.
As you go with the flow, then self-consciousness becomes individualization.
With the idea which you have chosen to manifest, look into your life. Look
into yourself. Look into your environment, and be sure that idea is ready to follow
the Divine Process, to be in rhythm with the universe. Consent to its timely
development. Now if you are having any problems with this ideation, Ratziel is the
one upon whom to call for inspiration, for direction, for clarification. Raphael will,
of course, assist you with staying in the rhythmic flow. Have I made myself clear?

Myra: I think it is interesting that one principle develops into the next. I hadn’t
recognized that until you talked about migration developing into individuation.

Sheariam:As a thing becomes differentiated, it becomes whole unto itself: the
meaning of Raphael. You see, the order of angels is service. The Auphonim helps to
move things along. The Malachim establishes the royal order or the high authority
of the individual.

Bonnie: If you feel like you’re fighting something, you’re not in the flow. But it
just seems really hard to know when you’re in the flow. (It should not be that difficult.
If things seem to be fighting you, then you know that you are not in the flow.)
Myra: If things fall together pretty well and things go easily... (That is correct.)
Owen: Then how do you differentiate between a problem situation that is really
difficult and gives one quite a struggle, but is there for the purpose of giving you growth,
and one that is there because you’re not in the flow?

Sheariam: The problem has arisen because of not being in the flow at some
previous time. Growth is only a euphemism for being in the flow or moving back to
being in accord.

Eileen: Could this even go back to another lifetime? (Of course. But you can
only start where you find yourself at any given time.)
Myra: What about accidents like a flat tire or running out of gas? Of course,
running out of gas is carelessness, but something that could happen that you really are an
innocent victim of. (There is no such thing. It only appears that way to your
consciousness. There is purpose in all things.)
Bonnie: When you set a goal, how do you know that it is one that will go with the
flow? (Setting goals falls under the Law of Ideation.)

Myra: That’s setting your idea. You have an idea of what you want to achieve.
Everything is an idea first. You can’t write a book until you decide to do it.
Maxine: If it doesn’t work out, then you’re evidently not in the flow.

Sheariam: That’s not necessarily so. You may determine that an idea must come
out in a certain fashion. You are then not following under the Law of Process. That
is why it is essential to have the right idea in the beginning.

Richard: How does one go about doing that? How do we know we’ve made a good
choice of an idea?

Sheariam: You must test it intuitionally. But naturally, given that you are finite
beings in finite bodies, your ideas are not going to be perfect. You must not expect
perfection in this lifetime. We are attempting to establish thought patterns,
emotional patterns, intentions that will deliver you at some future time in a better
condition at the right place. And so on down the line, so to speak. Remember always
that the awareness comes first. Ratziel: Self-consciousness; Raphael: Individuation.
When you, in your human fleshly way, decide to have a child, you
understand the mechanics of it, but not all of the principles. Thus, you conceive a
human being, but you do not have complete control over the completion of that
human being. It will grow according to its initial idea. So, it is with anything which
you can conceive. But as it is with a child, you attempt to have yourselves in the best
of health. You attempt to maintain that health throughout the gestation period.
Then you attempt to give that new human being all advantages environmentally. So,
it should be with any idea which you wish to put in motion.
Remember, as it has been given before, your thoughts are independent of
you.You have a thought. Then it must follow the Law of Process: Individuation.
There are other things environmentally which you can do to support it which follow
the other laws. Any other thoughts on the subject?

Myra: As we are concentrating on thinking about the Law of Ideation and the
Law of Process, the Order of Angels, the Auphonim and the Malachim, how could we
frame the thoughts in our heads to understand how that might be a help to us?

Sheariam: It is not necessary that you know. These simply are those minions or
energies which are the messengers between you and the Archangel upon whom you
call. (Myra: So they will just be there if we ask for the Archangel?) That is correct.

Eileen: Is one’s Higher Self aware of the workings of the laws, and does the
Higher Self contact these Archangels?

Sheariam: The Higher Self has some better knowledge of them than your
rational conscious self, but it is not complete. You, as you are constituted now, are in
the process of growing a Higher Self.

Eileen: In other words, it’s better to contact the Archangels than the Higher Self?

Sheariam: The Archangel discharges his duty by dispatching his angels who
contact your Higher Self. Through your Higher Self that knowledge, assistance and
comfort, or whatever, comes to you. There will be times when you will be aware of
the angels’ ministry, but that may not be very often.

Myra: I have found myself calling upon Khamael, and then Gabriel, Ratziel. I
just name them all. Is that being thoughtless, or is that asking for good help. I try not to
be greedy, but I don’t know which one is the best one to ask.

Sheariam: The Archangels should be called upon in consciousness. If you were to
call at random a person in a professional position, you would not do so without a
singular purpose in mind. The Archangels are entitled to your respect even as
anyone in a position of authority and responsibility.

Maxine: Where do our personal guides fit in this order?

Sheariam: You will go back to the early lessons about the Spirit Physical. Many
of your guides are in the same condition as we in the temple. Thus, those guides are
also in the process of growing. As is every level among your band are people of
higher consciousness, or higher awareness, and the hierarchy goes on, and on, and
on. Ultimately, one might say that some of your band are of the Order of Angels.

Bonnie: Do you know some of our guides? (Some of them, yes.) Because when I
mentioned Joy, you really smiled.

Sheariam: I think that this is sufficient lesson for this night. Let us then move on.
Who would wish to talk about a well experience.

Bonnie: Gloria had one that she would like to have interpreted. “I found myself
being pushed to the well in a wheel chair. It was a community well in the center of town,
something like a plaza. The dirt around there was dry and powdery, desert-like, and the
well was enclosed with sun-baked clay brick. Townspeople, I assumed, were standing
around the well, but did not seem to be making any effort to get water, although I knew
they were thirsty. I dipped water in a long-handled cup and gave each a drink. I couldn’t
understand the wheel chair, but I didn’t get out. I don’t know whether or not I could have.
My source people were standing to my left.” And that’s all she remembered.

Sheariam: The wheelchair is evidence that this entity is in need of the assistance
of other people. She is indeed a very independent person, and often forgets that
other people must also serve her as she serves them. The people around the well, the
townspeople, represent those who are there to receive her services which she gives.
Still she must learn to be served.

Myra: I had a successful visit to my well which I would like to tell you about. I
waited for weeks and weeks, and I felt very unsuccessful. Sometimes I was patient and
sometimes I wasn’t. But this particular morning, I heard some church bells chiming.
Suddenly I found myself inside a very large, cross-shaped church standing at the base of
the first steps in the sanctuary.
There I was pumping my squeaky old pump, and the water started flowing from
the faucet. The church was empty of people, but it was filled with bright light. As I
pumped, the pump changed into a standard waist-high baptistery. The water began to
flow up and out from the basin of it. In a circle about 15 to 20 feet in diameter away from
this baptistery rose rank upon rank of various sizes of organ pipes. There were very small
pipes the size of your little finger, and there were huge ones a foot and a half across. They
went up higher and higher in this big circle around me like a big cone that got wider
across the top. They just went higher while I gazed.
I looked up and the organ pipes changed into choirs of angels with varying colors
of robes of different types. They were all singing hymns of praise. I stood there stunned.
The water in the baptistery flowed gently, but it wasn’t sloppy. Nothing got wet. I gazed
open-mouthed at the choirs.
Then I realized the baptistery changed again. I was standing beside a circular,
rock-rimmed well about three feet high. There was a roof suspended above it by poles
about four feet long. It was a conical roof. Then suddenly, there were many people
surrounding this well, and Jesus was standing off to one side sort of suspended about ten
feet above the crowd. Suddenly I heard him say, “Whoever drinks of this water shall
never thirst.” Then the scene faded.

Sheariam: As you have been given in the exercise itself, the well was to represent
the waters of life. In your meditation, it was clearly distinct that religion is essential
to your spiritual development. That is to say that the forms of religion are important
to you, and thus should be kept incorporate. Music is also very important. You
should arrange to have some music in your life every day.
You have still to meet your spirit or guide band. Keep working on the well
experience, for it is through it that those members of your band which are in the
spirit-physical will come to you and communicate with you. But this meditation is a
clear indication that nothing should be allowed to substitute for your religion
experience. (Thank you. I got up that morning and went to church. I hadn’t gone to
church for about a month or six weeks. Thank you. I shall certainly do that.)

Ida: I haven’t been able to get a well again, but this week I had a meditation. In
the morning before getting out of bed I did some meditating trying to get a well.
Suddenly I found myself in some industrial district at night for it was dark. There were
large buildings around me and no lights. Standing there I noticed an opening or a drain in
the ground or pavement.
Then all at once water began to flow down the street in every direction. It flowed
down, and it was dirty, swirling around the opening. Then I noticed there was a lot of
litter going down with the water. Then the water began to get clearer and clearer and
clearer. Then the vision faded.

Sheariam: As has been given before, the mind always clothes its messages in the
symbols that are appropriate to the individual life. Your life has been one of much
hard work and industry. You are come now to a part of your life in which you have
things within your body and within your spirit which are unclean. This meditation
shows that the spiritual waters of life will wash away these things. This in effect is a
healing meditation.

Ida: The same afternoon I had another experience. It has nothing to do with
water. It was in the afternoon, and I was trying to study. All at once I got so tired I
couldn’t study at all. So, I sat down with a pillow in back of my head. All of a sudden, a
tall, young, beautiful woman appeared coming towards me. She wore a very ancient
garment, beautiful, with ornamented borders and a bordered band around her head of the
same binding. She had a child on her left arm about eight or ten months old. She came
and knelt by my feet at my right side, and then the vision vanished.

Sheariam: This is not the Virgin Mary as one might interpret, but rather a
member of your own spirit band who has come to be with you in the healing of your
body. The babe in arms is a clue as to the part of the body that is to be healed. Do
you understand? (The babe in arms – what does that mean?) A suckling child. (Both
happened the same day.) These are meant to bring you blessing. Your body is being
healed. (Thank you very much.)

Mary: I had a meditation to the well. I was walking down a path. There were
trees on either side. Suddenly the well was there in the middle of the path. It was a wide
place, and the trees grew out over the well. The well was of wood, and it had two
beautifully made perfect metal, brass or copper, bands holding the wood in place. There
was a white bucket with a little tiny red rim around the top.
When I drew water up it was very, very blue, and there was a little fish in it. I
drank some of the water, and it was very cool. I looked to my right, and there were three
people. There was a monk or friar wearing a little brown habit with this cord around him.
Next to him was like an angel in white, then a lady in gray, beautiful mauve gray. On the
other side of the well was Jesus. He talked to me. I can’t remember what he said. It was
like a lesson he gave me. Then I walked on down the path, and I thought about looking
back, but I don’t remember whether I looked back or not. That ended it. I just knew that I
had left.

Sheariam: Obviously, the three people you met or were at your well represent
three levels in the guidance band about you. Clearly, the religious significance is
there. You, too, also need the form of religion for your development. The monk
represents formalized religion, and the need also for withdrawal. You need time
alone for contemplation, meditation, and religious practice.
The angel, of course, is that messenger. Each person has one or more such
beings in their band. Not all are privileged to see them or discourse with them. The
lady represents some one in the spirit-physical who is with you as a woman, as a
female, a feminine influence, to assist you in the completion of your feminine gender.
She will be with you throughout this life as will others. But she will talk to you soon.

Mary: I don’t know if it was at that time, or later, when I was thinking about it, I
was reading a book about Jesus being one of the teachers and his travels to many other
countries where he had lived and studied as a young man before he was known in his 36
years. I don’t know where it came to me, but something came to me like, “He is your
teacher.” Whether it was Jesus or whether that’s the way I see him, would that be a
correct assumption? It was almost intuitive.

Sheariam: That is not incorrect. Remember that the mind clothes the thoughts in
that which is most suitable for the individual. Certainly, the entity energy that
manifested in this earth as a man named Jesus is a viable entity and is certainly
most capable of communicating with individuals. This is not necessarily a delusion
of any kind.

Richard: I found in my meditation that picturing a well was easy and yet difficult at
the same time, because I could picture any well that I chose to. For this reason, I wasn’t
sure that what I pictured was valid to present here tonight, for instance. Maybe it is, so
I’ll choose one that did come to mind for what it’s worth.
I found myself in a town square. It was a rather poor town. The well was made of
bricks and mortar. It was substantially built. It was just a round well waist high with no
wood structure over it. And there was an old bucket which had been galvanized at one
time. It was battered and rusty. I wondered about drinking water from a bucket such as
this, but I said to myself, “Everyone else in town uses it, so it must be all right.”
I let it down with the rope attached to it so it could be let down and pulled back
up. There was an old battered metal dipper lying there, so I was able to dip into the
bucket and drink the water. It didn’t look particularly clear and sparkling, but not dirty
either. It was refreshing. Then I looked to see who else might be around, and there were
other townspeople at something of a distance walking by. So, there were other people,
but they weren’t paying any particular attention to me. That’s when the whole thing faded
away.

Sheariam: I recommend that you review what has been given for others about
the faculty of imagination. You have done well with your well. The rusty bucket and
the rusty ladle represent those outworn or overused traditions and thought forms
which you have in your life, which everyone also has in their lives. And yet, life does
not fail or disappear because of them. As you say, all could drink from the same
bucket and not be diseased or harmed. It is in groups like this that the rusty buckets
are to be made new. (Thank you very much.)

Larry: Mine is short. When I go to the well, I don’t go down any path. I’m there
where I left off before. But I do realize one thing. In my status now, I’m very quiet. I’m
at ease. I have no worries and no pain, no adverse thoughts. Nothing is bothering me.
I did establish my guiding angel or baby sitter or whatever is a female. I’m not
able to give you any description, but, in the background is a female.
We come into a very quiet meditative stage at the present time, which we have
been in for some time. But the development I’ll share with you. As I’m very quiet, there
is no pain, no worries, no thought of tomorrow, just waiting. When it’s time to get the
show on the road, I’m going to be there to see and to understand what is going to take
place. From there I will come on through with more information as to where I’m at. (Yes,
you are moving forward from where you were when you first began. Keep working
at it. You are doing very well.)

Myra: Sheariam, could I ask about the squeaky pump that was found in my well?
You mentioned that Richard’s bucket and ladle were symbols there, so I wondered if
that’s a similar symbol for...? (Yes, but in this instance, your pump represents your
body.)

Maxine: I would like to express a sincere thank you to my guides, Luke the
Physician, St. Francis the Peacemaker, and Abraham, Father Time, and also Gloria, who
has aided my recent growing and understanding. I found my pet thought, the thought that
I am always right. I have put my pet out. I cannot accept it any more.
Last night I went to the well. The pool was at my feet. I took a drink, and asked to
see St, Francis as I had a strong need for peace. We spoke together, and the word
“responsibility” came tumbling out. I felt odd and stunned. This would bring peace if I
accepted responsibility. St. Francis was given sainthood for peace and the song “Peace on
earth, let it begin with me.”
There is one person who has been in the background. Her name is Miriam. I have
not met her. Will I have an opportunity to know her?

Sheariam: Yes, you will. Miriam will bring you the development of prophetic
nature. That is, the seeing into your own future. You have done quite well. Do keep
up the good work.

Bonnie: I have lots of ‘em. This one is particularly interesting. I notice that my
group is trying to get something across to me. I also notice that in the past few weeks I
realize I trust more. I’m not getting upset by all the things that they’re showing me. I
know that they will let me know what’s happening, and I also trust in the universal
process more.
In this one, I went to my table. It shook and cracked in a couple of places. I
repaired with my hands, and I checked underneath to make sure that the seams were put
back together OK. I went down my path to my well. The well was cracked also. It was
leaking. I put a ditch around it so that the water wouldn’t be wasted, and it would go into
my garden that I had planted last week. Then I put mortar and repaired it just perfectly.
About that time, I was wondering where my group was because they weren’t
joining me. So, I started looking around, and I didn’t see them. I went off into the sky,
and I noticed that I can do that now. I don’t worry about going off forever and getting
lost. I can just float out there.
I didn’t see them out there so I came back. They weren’t there. I called to them.
They didn’t come. I called Leonard, and he didn’t come. Just then, I looked to the left of
the well, and there was a book on a rack. I went over to the book and picked it up. I had
the impression that it was a bible. I opened it, and there was a ribbon marker at Ezekiel.
And that was it.

Sheariam: The cracks in your table and in your well are evidence that you are
becoming aware of cracks in the structure of your life which permit energy to leak
away from you. As you did in your meditation, you are now in the process of
correcting those weaknesses, of mending the cracks. It has now come time for you to
do some work on your own. Thus, your spirit band holds its distance. In giving the
bible, you are being shown the necessity to look to old tradition, to look into the
occult meaning of old prophecies, to see what the future holds, not only for yourself,
but for all people of your kind.
You are coming into a time when you will be knowing more than you would
wish to know. Thus, your band allows you to work on your own, to establish your
own sense of responsibility and confidence in your powers.

Bonnie: So far, what I’ve read about Ezekiel is first of all that Ezekiel means that
God strengthens. (Yes.) The whole chapter is pretty grim, at least so far what I’ve read.
I won’t go into all of it, but this morning in my meditation there was a casket. I
went to the casket and knelt there. Leonard joined me there. I had the impression I was
inside of it. Yet we opened it up, and there was only a rock sitting in the casket.

Sheariam: As you see, you are dying to an old life. You are being reborn. You are
leaving behind those old crystallized structures that no longer serve you in the new
direction in which your life is moving.

Bonnie: We went to the table then, and in the dust on the table, it said, “The end.”
We went on from there, and there was a ceremony performed for me. (An initiation of a
kind.) Is that what that was? (Yes.) It was beautiful. He took care of most of it. Then
they all talked to me and joined hands. (You are moving along nicely in your
development.)

Ida: I’ve been trying to get a well, and when he mentioned about the “old
bucket”, I saw a flash of it at a distance. But I didn’t get to the well, but I saw the well
and a bucket hanging on a spool near it. But I didn’t get to the well. (You will get
there.)

Maxine: Is it true that one can have several wells? (Oh yes. The shape of the well
simply reveals a certain state of consciousness at the time the meditation takes
place.)
I have one fountain that is concrete. It’s nice looking, and it has a handle I can
turn the water on. Sometimes it will only just barely show, and sometimes it bobbles up
and down and up and down. Of course, I think that represents me in what I’m doing. (Of
course, it does.)
Then I have another well or water which actually is a stream that’s off to the side
where I find that I can go and stand. It has a little gravel, and the water is cool. It’s a little
over ankle deep. When I feel I need understanding, I go to stand in that stream for
understanding. (Beautiful meditation. Excellent.)
Then I have one other place. There is a fountain, and the water just flows. I find
that sometimes I wish to just go and stand there letting the water flow over me. (Why do
you not do so?) I said that I do. I don’t always go there, but there are times when I feel
low, and I need a cleansing. This is where I go to get my feet washed, and I let the water
flow over me. (Yes. That is a very cleansing meditation. Excellent.)

Mary: Is it possible, or how does it work, that the spiritual part of us that’s
working can be completely separate from the physical. I’ve always read and thought that
the two had to be interconnected, but lately I find that with me it isn’t always true. The
physical can be rather uncomfortable, but I can kind of escape into this other spiritual
aspect and kind of leave that part behind.

Sheariam: Yes. The connection is consciousness. As you are well aware, the body
functions at one level and the mind functions at another. Although the two are
intertwined, the one is much dependent upon the other. Even as the physical body is
dependent upon the mind for its existence, so you as a self-conscious being are
dependent upon your spiritual self for existence. Does that help? (I guess I’m a little
unsure about it. I always thought all levels had to work together.) They do, but not
necessarily simultaneously.)
I think now it is time for our healing meditation. The temple healers are
coming to join us. By the time you have settled yourselves, they will have arranged
themselves.
Now breathe deeply. Load up your systems with oxygen. Relax your bodies.
Allow the healers to minister to you. As they massage your feet they encourage the
cells in the feet to absorb more of the pure oxygen. You will feel your feet become
very warm, even tingling. I will not describe the treatment this time, because each
will be served in his own way according to individual needs. Some will have small
bone adjustments made. Some will have energy put into the connective tissue. Some
will have tension withdrawn from the muscles. All will receive a treatment of
relaxation. Allow it to happen. Flow with the ministers’ hands. Enjoy this delightful
ministry. It is not one that you have very often.
As the healers work on your feet, bringing the bones into proper alignment,
enabling the muscles and the connective tissue to do their job properly, so are
adjustments being made in the organs of your understanding. Feel the circulation
increase as the healers move their treatment on up your ankles, your calves, and
your knees. Those of you who need special treatment on the knees may feel the urge
to straighten your legs. This is the healer pulling your legs straight in order to work
on that joint.
Continue to breathe deeply to give the healers the oxygen necessary for their
work. The healers’ treatments flow in accord with the lessons being given. Thus, you
will receive a massage of the thighs also this night as you have studied the Principle
of Migration and differentiation. The thighs represent your ability to move your
body about on your own, upright with strength. Thus, you get the treatment tonight
on your knees and your thighs.
Already, as the healers work on you, the blue and green energy begins to
collect in the room. Feel it about you. Let it add to your healing process.
Now as the healers complete their treatment, they again move outside our
circle and join their energies one with the other. As they stand behind you, you can
feel their energy coming through your back. You may feel the warmth of their
person as they stand behind you.
Now the blue and green energies swirl around. The healers are spinning
them into beautiful shell-like conformations. I am told this is a treatment of beauty,
that each in his own way is having that which is beautiful within him, charged up,
emphasized, expanded. Then this energy overflows into your lives, and that which
you have around you also becomes more beautiful.
Now into this room filled with life-giving energy, healing thoughts, and
expanding beauty, call those loved ones about whom you have concern. (Many names
called.)
As you breathe in this beautiful energy, your body becomes filled with its
beauty and its healing. As your loved ones come, their spiritual bodies, their subtle
bodies, also become filled with this beautiful healing energy. Soak in it as in a warm
bath.
Now help the healers as they swirl this energy into whirling vortices and send
it out throughout the world. Visualize this with them. Add your power. The energy
then is transmitted out of this room into the surrounding community, and indeed,
throughout your globe. All is uplifted by the beauty, made whole through the
healing. So, you have added your efforts that all shall come to completion in the
appointed place at the appointed time.
As this energy is sent forth, the celestial music begins. Listen for it. Now
allow your loved ones to return to themselves, and together with the healers raise
their voices in song, and bring your meditation to a close with the Alleluia.

Closed with Alleluia followed by Let there be peace on earth.
