Session #76 – May 31, 1986
Opening meeting
Present: Regular circle members except Maxine and Jean, plus about 25 guests.
The meeting was held at Waverley Heights Church on a very warm afternoon
necessitating use of many fans. Introductory remarks were given by Owen, and Bonnie
led the meditation. We began with the usual singing of “Open my eyes…”
Pelah: Greetings and welcome dear friends of the future. I am Pelah, lately
come to be with Gloria, to be with Jonathan, to assist Joshua and the others in this
great mission undertaken recently, as the instrument is directed to assist those
brought into her life across the threshold into the New Age. I come to bring strength
and courage, to uphold, to render love, to fill in those vacancies which the human
spirit finds too large to fill. Tonight I come to bring to you a message of the New
Age.
Of late, your teachers have been telling you of the changes wrought in recent
days, of those times which are no more. I would speak to you tonight of the necessity
of true love and enjoyment. You have come into this earth to experience the sensory
world. In order for this to happen, it is necessary that you forget whence you came,
although that memory lingers beneath the threshold of your consciousness. It
resides there as a foundation, a springboard from which you can launch yourselves
into your efforts.
What you call love is not love. Love is a joy of nurturing, of cherishing, of
extension of yourselves into Life itself. If you truly love, you harbor that which you
love. You nurture. You cherish. You support the effort of growth. You do not insert
yourself in the way. You do not stand between the goal and the striver. You make
the way clear. You assist in removing obstacles. You encourage.
With each thought of selfish desire, you create obstacles. You place barriers
between the striver and the goal. Thus it is as immortal life dwelling in this
condition of limitation, that you must recognize that you cannot truly love everyone.
You must learn to be selective and direct that nurturing supportiveness towards
those few whom you truly can regard with unconditional freedom. Love does not
clutch. Love does not grasp. Love does not strike. Love does not confine. True love
can only be expressed with open arms, open hands, open hearts. This requires self-
discipline. True love is not the wild expression of undisciplined passion. Love
endures. Love is there when passion is spent.
(Pelah uses slow, graceful gestures to accompany her slow, soft speech. Her eyes open
briefly from time to time. She sits forward, almost on the edge of her chair.)
Thus, to move into the true Age of Affection, you must choose your spouses
with care. Choose your friends with care. You must realize when you have reached
that limit of your own earthly condition, and then grant the rest freedom to be, to
whatever extent they can be. For, your duty as a lover is to help those you love to
become the greatest they can become, to live life to the fullest it can be lived in your
limited condition, to encourage all of those you love to expand themselves into their
greatest potential, for as you love in this way, so you grow into your own greatest
potential. This requires separateness. It is the most important lesson you can learn
from this earthly condition: to love wholly without restraint, but with self-discipline
as an individual.
The truth of the new Age of Affection is that an individual can stand with
other individuals, and the integrity of the society thus formed is held solidly in
common purpose, in freedom for each and every individual. You are not to abstain
from using any sensory function granted to this condition, but you are to learn to
use that sensory function with self-discipline, with forethought, with caring. This is
true affection.
Your children are not extensions of you. Each child is an individual on its
own merits, even as you. Do not pass by the opportunity your children offer to
experience the freedom and the joy of innocence. It is said that innocence cannot be
regained, but my friends, it can be rebuilt. In the Age of Restoration into which we
now step, we must rebuild innocence. It is in the innocent heart that true love
abides. For it is that innocent heart that loves unconditionally. It is not in that
wisdom gained through experience or making what you call mistakes. Innocence is
rebuilt through loving, and love is expressed in innocence.
Thus, you cannot expect the worst, for that is what you will get. If you love,
you expect the best. As you expect the best of us, we expect the best of you. You are
our hope for the future. There will be a future. The structure of that future depends
on the amount of rebuilding you can do in the time that you have to do it. Your
prophets have told you of the coming times and tides of events, and the signs are
even now upon you. But he who despairs expects not the best, and thus will not be
disappointed. If you would have the best future, expect the best, not only of your
future but of yourself. And fear not that you can give it, for you are the best. It is
only in your expression that you diminish what you are.
It is time for you to go beyond hope. It is time for you to go beyond faith, and
it is time for you to go beyond charity. It is time for you to demand your future, to
appropriate your rightful heritage, and to expect the benefits which you have
thought of as blessings. It is time for joy, not doom. It is time to stay. It is time to
love your earthly condition, to express the best it can express. Do not allow the
doomsayers to cause you despair, for if you expect to be despairing, you shall be. So
expect joy. Live in all of your being. Love with all of yourself, but not with
undisciplined passion, but with thoughtfulness, with caring, with purpose.
In the troubled times of your planet, which are upon you, the amethyst in
any expression, be it color, be it crystal, is your mightiest sword against your
enemies. Your enemies you have created. They are the conditions you have brought
about on your planet. Those of you who meditate, meditate the color purple.
Meditate the deepest amethyst you can imagine. Those of you who work with the
amethyst, give the gift of amethyst crystal to your beloveds. Wear the color
amethyst in all of its varying shades and hues so that you call down from the Source
of Power that force channeled through you, which is the creator’s love for its
creatures, that which it has created.
Raise your voice in song. Use the word “JOY” as a mantra. Say “JOY”.
(Response “JOY”, repeated three times, louder as Pelah requests.) Now feel…..
I am at your service. If I can answer, I will do so.
Owen: Since I have to type your name, I would appreciate the spelling of it. (For
you, my dearest friend, you may spell it P-E-L-A-H)
Peggy: You mentioned something about the time we have here. Is there anything
more that you can say on that? (Volumes. This is not the time nor the place, for there
are those who would be afeared, and there would be those who would take what I
say and use it incorrectly for lack of having sufficient information.)
Jenika: You spoke of the New Age. I’ve heard other spirits speak of the New Age.
Can you tell me what the New Age is?
Pelah: In the history of your planet there are many cycles, many eras, many
ages. Some of these lie within the others, as your biological cycles lie within the
context of others. And so it is that consciousness has cycles of development and
expression. You are coming out of an age of confusion, of searching for you know
not what, into an Age of Knowing, of Affection, of genuine loving. Knowledge that
has long since been lost in previous ages is coming into your arena of using.
Consciousness must comply. Consciousness must grow. Growth is your
measuring stick of Life as earth inhabitants. You do not see the rocks grow, but you
know they do. You use the rocks that have grown for you. You call them many
different things. And it seems difficult to comprehend that a rock has
Consciousness, but it does. The Consciousness that you now enjoy, at some time in
some age past has been the Consciousness you call “rock”, that condition of
inertness which prevents a certain kind of expressing. As you in the human element
move through that which you call “time”, you are entering this Age of Knowledge in
which you will comprehend the Consciousness of a rock.
You believe now that you have a secret of the Universe in your nuclear
power. But let me tell you, dear friends, civilizations have fallen that have had far
higher knowledge of the secrets of Life than you have now. Those of you who work
towards the restoration by being the lovingness of which I speak make it possible for
human Consciousness to handle with knowledge those inadvertent discoveries which
some have the genius to make. If there is not sufficient Consciousness to cope with
the consequences brought about by the discoveries, then knowledge must be
removed, as it has been in the past. Ages have certain calendar correlations, but
they are more predicated on Consciousness than upon what you call time.
Clarence: Will this New Age bring any radical changes to earth as we know it now?
(Yes, indeed so. Many changes even in your generation. But an age can be
immensely long in your conception of time. You are on the threshold of the New
Age. You have not fully stepped into the New Age. Before the New Age is completed,
the human condition will wear quite a different body than it wears now, as has
happened in the past.)
Owen: In our present society we see to many individuals who act and seem to
have attitudes that seem to be at cross purposes with what most of us feel we know is
right. And I think that we have been told that when a soul (individual) passes through the
tunnel of transition into the spirit, this doesn’t necessarily mean they change. They take
those characteristics with them. And presumably some of these characteristics would still
be hanging on to incarnate into another physical life. It seems to me that such an
individual would be completely out of place in the New Age. How is this to be taken care
of? I presume we won’t have prisons, and there will be an entirely new way of solving
that type of problem.
Pelah: Because of the prophecies, you tend to regard this threshold of the
New Age as being of short duration. You think in terms of a century, when indeed,
this is not the case. There will be many more opportunities for those who move
through the transition with characteristics inappropriate to the fullness of the New
Age to incarnate and work through that Consciousness. Consciousness changes in
the twinkling of an eye. The question is, in whose eye is that twinkle. One hundred
years is more than most of you will live in this condition, and yet it may take 26,000
years for the age to reach its fulfillment. But as your wise Confucius says, “The
longest journey begins with the first step”. You, my friends, make your first step
now.
Myra: I was thinking of the first step. You mentioned earlier that we need to feel
joy and love. (Yes.) Is that what you would recommend as our first step, that we
concentrate on joy and love? (Every moment of your Consciousness expression with
every fiber of your being.) As we attempt to do that, it may seem to others that we’re
being rather ridiculous in the face of dire events happening around us. But nonetheless,
we should continue to be ridiculous as possible? (Joy is contagious. Who can resist
being joyous in the presence of joy? Joy is not foolishness or facetiousness or
shallowness. If you self-discipline your emotions, then joy becomes the song of your
being, not a foolish interlude.)
Peter: You speak of change of the body. What biological changes can we look
forward to in the future from the form we have today? (The actual outward form is not
predictable, as that will depend upon the adaptation the organism makes to the
conditions created out of Consciousness. But as things stand with you now, human
bodies are moving into the dimension of Air. Your bodies are becoming subtler.
Gross matter is becoming more subtle. This, of course, will occur in natural order of
mutation, of what you call evolution. It is not going to happen 24 hours from now,
nor 24 years from now, but perhaps 24 Consciousnesses from now.)
Owen: I wondered if you might expand a bit on the term “subtle”. I think you are
using that synonymous with trend toward air bodies, but what is that? (The subtle
bodies, those which lie beneath the sensory experience which you enjoy. As your
bodies become more etherealized, your sensory systems will become more sensitive.
Even now, you have those among you who can feel the subtle substances of
seemingly empty space. You have those among you who can see even now those
subtle substances. Subtle bodies: you are in them. There are times that in spite of
yourself, in spite of what you believe, in spite of previous experience, you are aware
of your presence which goes before you.)
Bonnie: I have a question about color, which seems to be a very important thing at
this time. I was told personally by my guides that I should wear the color red at all times.
And now you’re talking about the color purple or amethyst. What is it about color that
does to us or for us? (What you perceive as color is in fact a force. It is a
manifestation of a life-giving force, an aspect, if you will. A refraction of light is like
a ray of Life force. Each refraction of light which you call color carries its own
message of beingness, and some of you respond from within that far memory of
which I earlier spoke to that vibration of that specific color which will best bring
forward your potency. And for you, my dear one, red brings forward your potency.
The amethyst of which I spoke is a protective force for the human condition.)
Owen: I don’t like to monopolize this, but in the absence of another question,
could you tell us a little bit more about yourself? (I am but recently come to this family.
As you know, our channel stepped across a threshold of her own, and as this
commitment was made, so were some of us called to be a part of that completion.
My bonafides are of no purpose to your knowledge. The truth of which I speak is
only of worth to you as it proves itself to be. My main purpose, for this time to come,
is to assist this channel in completing the mission to which it has been committed, to
render love, to give strength, to keep up the courage, and to keep the direction clear.
To answer that curiosity, I have been with this entity before in ages past. We have
served our fellows as we are now and as we shall continue to do. That is enough.)
Thank you. We really appreciate your help to Gloria. She is a very important person to
us. (She is equally important to us in our work. Without such links the continuity of
knowledge would be greatly weakened.
And now I bring to you the blessing of our truth. We are but human also in
simply another condition. We love you in your freedom of beingness. We encourage
you in the growth into your full potential. Blessed be all of your aspirations, and
success to all of you on your journey. And now I bid you to sing your closing song as
“Let there be JOY in earth”.
Closed with singing “Let there be joy on earth”, apparently missing the “in” as stated by
Pelah.
