Charles: [Mark] Good morning folks, I am Charles, inviting myself into  
your conversation as naturally as if I were sitting around your  
circle. I'll pick up on a couple of threads here and see if we can  
weave them into the tapestry. I observe the doubts and even  
frustrations evident in the statements offered and I will try to bring  
some perspective and some balance into the equation. I will validate  
the observation first and foremost, the statement just having been  
offered, that indeed you are all clueless; by that I mean clueless  
about how the ripples that you cause in the 'water', in the very  
fabric of awareness, go out and influence so many different  
individuals that are also resident on the 'pond.'

It may seem as though after having made a ripple or caused a wave that  
it doesn't have much impact because it moves and travels away from  
you, that from your perspective, what was the big deal? It was just a  
splash, it was just a small wave, yet the entire pond has been  
rippled. The entire surface has been disturbed by your contribution,  
has been made to be rocked by what you offer into the equation. While  
it may seem from where you are positioned, that this normal everyday  
activity that you are engaged in, this routine accomplishment of  
jumping in and making a splash amounts to very little because it is  
the same for you and your perspective has not changed to afford you  
the opportunity of understanding how these ripples that are caused  
affect the entire surface of the pond. But they do, and they go out  
well beyond your point of generation and they invariably elevate all  
those that are on the surface of the pond if even for just an instant  
in time, they are raised by virtue of your actions. They are shaken  
into an awareness of your presence and contribution; it cannot help  
but be otherwise because you are all part of the same pool.

I understand, that as a mortal of the realm, your most challenging  
aspect is to proceed in faith and act in faith as if all you have  
discovered in faith is real and genuine although the material signs  
and symbols are lacking and that when you act in faith, there is so  
very little material indication that anything at all has transpired,  
that you have not really made any waves, all you did was jump in  
again. But it is true that any time one enters or leaves the pool,  
there is a disturbance, there is an impact, there is a contribution to  
the whole.

I hear in the conversation, the statement that one in service may not  
feel as though their act of service registers as anything significant  
or different or other than normal actions. Let's discuss the paradigm  
of those who are involved in service because true enough, the best  
servants are the ones who do not bring self importance overmuch into  
the equation. The truest servants are the ones who see themselves as  
simply normal, simply doing what comes naturally, not seeking  
recognition or observation of their efforts, but rather making their  
contributions in a humble and sincere gesture of the heart.

Again, this represents an act of faith. One does this not seeking the  
external rewards, the mortal signs of accomplishment, but rather one  
does true service with an act of selflessness, an act that they're  
offering for the greater good, not for the recognition of the self.  
And so it is that some of your finest messengers of truth have been  
the most selfless individuals, viewing themselves as simply a part of  
the chain, a cog in the mechanism, an actor on the stage but not  
seeking the limelight for themselves, content to provide a supporting  
role and to back up the real project and to offer their assistance in  
this project.

Such as it is with any act of service and even this act of t/ring that  
you refer to. If one has a personality predisposed to wanting self  
recognition and being in the limelight, then they will not make as  
pure a messenger as one who is willing to operate and function in the  
shadows behind the scenes and in support of the greater project. But  
herein lies the catch 22; how do individuals who perform in such  
capacities of supporting cast and crew retain the desire to function  
in service without any such public recognition of their roles. This is  
most challenging; the best messengers are indeed humble and how then  
are they rewarded for their efforts and maintain a humble posture? And  
we return to the idea of these acts being acts of faith and acts of  
the heart wherein you do derive satisfaction, you do achieve a sense  
of accomplishment, there is a sense of awareness and appreciation in  
the spiritual realm. It may not come from those who are being served  
soup in the soup line for they are not focused on the volunteers  
providing the soup. They are after the nourishment of the soup itself,  
nevertheless there is the satisfaction of those who indulge in  
offering the soup being provided.

So in conclusion here, I will just state that it is indeed the supreme  
mortal challenge to maintain your focus of spiritual contribution and  
as well be content to derive your sense of awareness and  
accomplishment from other sources. It is true, the act is yours, the  
results are God's, but that is a statement and words that may be hard  
for the mortal to live by. Nevertheless, the believer knows them to be  
true and can take comfort and solace in having given in service  
regardless of any tangible results from such service. Go in peace and  
know the truth of the statement that all things offered in service and  
with love are maintained and cherished as part of the fabric that the  
Father is weaving into the ascension career.

All acts of kindness will reside with you. You may not be aware of how  
the ripples move the water as they cross the pond but be assured that  
they do and that others will feel them and that is beyond your  
jurisdiction, but it is as a direct result of your action, your being  
in motion to allow it to happen. Be content with that observation and  
awareness in your lives and go to spirit to receive the acknowledgment  
that your contributions were in fact received in grace and as well  
accept the appreciation and awareness from all of us on our side that  
such actions are what we build our hope and our dreams for this world  
on. They are the seeds of all that will grow up to ripen into fruits  
and we are grateful even if those appear as only words to you, it is  
true.

Thank you all, it is my pleasure to join you once again. I will now  
open up this forum, farewell.

Michael: [Henry] Greetings my friends, it is I, Michael here today to  
take this opportunity to speak about the discussion you were having  
this morning. It reminded me of listening to the twelve, how they  
always entertained their doubts while they were being led forward by  
their certainty, their certainty and trueness of me but that did  
nothing to change their doubtful human minds. And having lived in a  
human body with a human mind, I observed it is a tremendous process  
one must develop to bring the mind to a greater likeness, to fill it  
with pure love and compassion for your humanness and your fellow  
[humans.]

It is true that what this process called t/ring does is allow a brief  
access for spirit and humans to interface in real time. The pool  
analogy by Charles is a tremendously accurate analogy. Coming down and  
living in the flesh, many a time I myself created waves on the surface  
of the pool purposely to deliver awareness, to live as a true  
messenger, to deliver the message in a living sense and in that sense,  
you all as deliverers of my message walk alone amongst the strength of  
others. Living my life in the flesh. was somewhat easier for me in the  
sense that I had a greater recognition of what I was doing because I  
was conscious of my part as Creator, of being able to visualize the  
outcome, visualize the relationship.

That relationship pulled me through the earth life, that relationship  
with Father and pure spirit, and I did not have to doubt. I knew where  
I was and what I was doing. I did not expect a greater response. I  
accepted the way things were. They did not affect what I had to do and  
what I did was bring a greater awareness of spirit to my fellow men. I  
brought this awareness, this greater awareness of spirit for the  
purpose of showing that this greater awareness of spirit can lead to a  
greater awareness in men of a greater life that can be lived. All of  
you who walk and serve in my stead, in my shoes, at some point are  
doing this. You are bringing a greater awareness of what could be to  
the actuality of what is.

As an incarnated Creator Son in the flesh, I had to use a mortar and  
pestle and grind trust into minute granules. I had to bring truth down  
into something tremendously simple as the love of a Father for his  
children and the love of the children for each other. I could not  
serve chunks of truth, just a light broth with a singular attitude and  
throughout my brief life here, I exhibited this truth in a loving,  
kind, and conscious gesture as you do when you serve the ministry of  
the great brotherhood. My dear ones, do not lose your footing on a  
weak hold of doubt. Remember the uphill climb guarantees for certain,  
a true stronghold.

Know that I am with you, each of you, and all of you together as I am  
here this morning in the relationship of a loving parent. Know beyond  
any shadow of a doubt, that what is done in this t/r process is to  
bring the great love of the Father into the hearts of all men, that as  
a server and as a messenger it is not up to you to decide what is  
served and it is not up to you to comprehend how what is served  
affects others. You act in our stead, you are our hands and our feet  
and for a brief moment you become the voice of spirit and in that  
brief moment you know that we are real. Thank you for this connection  
this morning, may you continue to grow in service, thank you.

Light: [Mark] Hello my friends, I am Light. I'd like to share a few  
words about light and relationship. As you all know, we refer to you  
as beacons or generators of light for you indeed shine out to the  
spiritual world as ones who have gathered to yourself the ability to  
generate great light and beam it forward. Now to the one who is the  
source of light, your perspective always has your environment around  
you lit up so wherever you are, the darkness is dispelled. You cannot  
appreciate from your perspective what others are able to see when they  
approach you and witness your light because you are surrounded by it,  
but when another sees your light, they have something that attracts  
[them] and to which they now can form a relationship.

The beam generated in the lighthouse has no conception of the  
otherness of individuals out there, it merely shines a beam out for  
all to see. When the ship's captain makes contact with that beam and  
sees that light, now there is a relationship, a proximity, now there  
is something to guide and to orient from. There is a relationship  
formed of those who observe from the outside, the light that is  
generated. So it is with each of you as beacons of your own,  
generating light and having it emanate forth from you. Others may see  
that your light is on, that you are willing to shine light and shed  
light into corners of darkness and just your very proximity [to] them,  
your very relationship to it changes for when anything approaches  
light, it is changed and any darkness is dispelled or is relegated  
into the shadows.

Yet the light does not perceive that it is so influential, that it is  
making so many changes. It just is being the light and doing what it  
does normally and naturally and as a result of its existence, others  
out there are able to draw their bearings from this light, to  
associate and have a relationship with this light because it is a  
point that exists. It is as a star in the heavens, something that may  
be used in perspective. All the while the light is just being the  
light, being itself and everything else out there is finding itself in  
relationship to this point of brilliance.

So it is not hard to see that as these points of light, you fail to  
register all around you that is impacted because it is so normal and  
natural that it is illuminated by your presence, that these ripples  
and waves have indeed come from you in light form and have indeed  
illuminated these darker places. All the while you would say to  
yourselves, I am doing nothing, I am simply being myself, what great  
goodness is accomplished? So the lighthouse might ask itself, I am  
doing nothing great, I am simply who I am, what does it matter? Yet,  
the ships captain has been saved and all aboard have been saved by  
virtue of one who will stand strong with the light.

So you are each one, lighthouses in your own universe of experience,  
your mini-verse of self, standing as the lighthouse with that which  
you know and the faith that you have as your solid foundation on which  
you stand. The lightwaves which emanate from you are as normal and  
natural as your doubts that they have any effect. I wish it were true,  
for words to convey to you from our side that they do have an impact,  
that their effect is known. You will have to accept this in faith for  
the time being until you can see for yourselves with the eyes of  
spirit, how these simple actions actually were grand-stands for faith  
and for the love that you have come to know in this process.

I bid you all farewell and that you have a wonderful and fruitful  
week, go in peace.

Nebadonia: [Cathy] My children, I am your Mother. Each one of you  
holds a unique place in my sphere of spirit. I glory in your growth  
and expansion of your capabilities in contacting spirit. My mind  
spirits are working within each of you to bring wisdom and worship.  
Michael's Spirit of Truth is guiding you to new truths about spirit.  
Your trust in us is most gratifying from the view of a parent. As we  
want to step forward into unknown avenues of spirit contact and spirit  
action, we will be safe and secure as a mortal parent holds the  
child's hand. You need not fear misstep in this process as we are  
always with you.

Machiventa: [Henry] Greetings to you this morning, it is I Machiventa  
here to share a few thoughts about the discussion this morning,  
especially the t/ring process and to bring light to the fact that this  
t/ring process is a process and demonstration of faith in the ability  
of one to participate in this process as a messenger. This notion of a  
demonstration of faith is a tremendously powerful circuit which draws  
other faith seekers and uses to demonstrate faith in their daily lives  
that this demonstration of faith encourages others like cosmic drops  
of water seeking to reunite with each other to become one, this  
current of faith energizes, it strengthens faith in others. It is a  
dynamic process of faith between the mind of spirit and the mind of  
man. Is it actually possible for the mind of spirit to be perceived  
through the mind of men? Can this process actually help you gain  
insight into a greater functioning of this life dynamic between spirit  
and humans?

So do not lose sight of this aspect that faith is tremendously  
strengthened, living faith strengthened by living truth in a living  
reality of the greater light which is to come. Have a great week and  
we will talk to you again soon, thank you.
