Greetings All –
YOUR TEACHERS ARE WITH YOU. They are not speaking to
you except on very rare occasions, and then only if you are capable of hearing.
From time to time they will send their thoughts into your mind, and you will
experience this as your own spark of inspiration. You are as yet unaware of how
your mind is joined with all other minds, but in time you will begin to
experience this in the context of your own world. The demonstration of this will
become so obvious that you will wonder how you could ever have doubted it.
YOUR TEACHERS ARE WITH YOU and today in your two
longer practice periods, practice being with them. You do not need to create an
image of them in order to have this experience. You do not need to hear a voice
or see a face, for their presence is enough to give you a complete experience
that you are in fact together. If you will be still, breathe deeply and not
weave fantasies—neither happy fantasies nor fearful fantasies—you will begin to
experience what is actually there. Your Teachers are actually there. And today
you can practice being
with them.
PRACTICE 129: Two 30-minute practice periods.
More perspective on how
one is “not alone.”
From the Journal:
9:44
p.m. Monday, November 22, 1999

The region gives form – it sits like patience – a rock, there when needed.
> Earth as throughput – not a final
solution.
10:29 A.M. S2K – This is changing my
life. Read the section on Marriage in GCW-I. The view of life and creation
comes to mind is far different than what I had. I am a sojourner passing
through in company. To belong – to find my place has been a lifelong quest. I’d
go to places thinking surely there must be people like me. Finding M.E. was
great…I needed/wanted to be married, in spite of what my parents’ marriage had
been.
GCW-I explains much. Through
collaboration we make earth like heaven.
11 a.m. On to health. We have bodies in order to
do something. I want to do what I need to do so I don’t need to come back. …
12:15
p.m. The Human Region project –
→
Message to higher levels of governance – that support of regions leads to
cooperation.
1:10 p.m. Greater Community is what my
work is about. That’s why I was attracted to Marshall’s booth in Denver. I
thought it would have tools for regions.
To this point I’ve thought the work was
about planning, but that isn’t my work. It is about regions and collaboration.
…
8:30
p.m. Once again I am lost. I am overwhelmed by the work at the office. …
I
accept S2K, I accept GCW, it fits – but what do I do next? Withdraw more? Or reach
out. …
Q:
Am I being appropriate with my work? No
Q:
What must I do? Work
Q:
How – Prioritize, seek help.
Q:
You are not in my body. No
Q: I’m
so angry and alone. Angry - yes, alone –
No.
I
need Knowledge’s help, not punishment. - Do that which must be done. Eliminate
all other.
10:28
p.m. My gut is upset - … I continue to fake my life.
Another fun day of confusion, though it begins: “This is changing my life.” I use the process of asking questions of Knowledge in the journal and writing the answers. You may ant to try that in writing, if you've not done it. Since I’ve been
through the whole process, I can say there are more bumps ahead, but it all
worked out, so I recommend that you stick with it.
