Greetings All –
THIS PREPARATION THAT YOU ARE UNDERTAKING is
ancient in its origin. It has been used for centuries, in this world and in other
worlds as well. It is only adapted in its language and in its relevancy to your
current time, yet it prepares the mind in the way that minds have always been
prepared in The Way of Knowledge, for Knowledge does not change and the
preparations only adapt themselves to current events and current understanding
so that they may be relevant for the recipients. Yet, the true mechanism for preparation
is unchanged.
YOU ARE UNDERTAKING AN ANCIENT RITE in the reclamation
of Knowledge. Born of the Great Will of the Universe, this preparation has been
constructed for the advancement of students of Knowledge. You are working in
tandem now with many other individuals, both within this world and within other
worlds as well. For Knowledge is being taught in all worlds where intelligent
life exists. Thus, your efforts are supported and embellished by the efforts of
those who are preparing with you. In this, you represent a community of
learners. Think not, then, that your efforts are singular. Think not, then,
that you are alone in the world undertaking the reclamation of Knowledge. Think not, then, that you are not
part of a community of learners. This will be more evident to you in time as
you begin to recognize those who are preparing with you. This will be more
evident in time as your experience of the presence of your Teachers deepens. This
will be more evident in time as the results of your Knowledge become evident
even to you. This will be more evident in time as you consider your life as
part of a Greater Community of Worlds.
REMIND YOURSELF OF YOUR PRACTICE UPON THE HOUR. In
your deeper practices in stillness, receive the benefit of all who practice
with you. Remind yourself that you are not alone and that their rewards are given
to you as your rewards are given to them. Thus, you share in your
accomplishments together. The power of your undertaking is so tremendously
supported by the endeavor and the giving of others that it far exceeds your own
abilities. When this is realized, it will give you all manner of encouragement
and will banish forever the idea that you are inadequate to the tasks that are given to you.
For your giving is supplemented by the giving of others, and this represents
the Will of God in the universe.
PRACTICE 170: Two 30-minute practice periods. Hourly
practice.
From the Journal:
9:30
A.M. Sunday, January 2, 2000. Life begins again. Crossing the century line successfully
– that invisible demarcation makes me feel better. I’ve settled into
understanding the relativity of it all through Knowledge and relationships of
knowledge.
…
10:55
A.M. Today I feel clear. I have a GCW perspective on my life in the world. I am
here to learn, to serve, to give. I plan to be manifest for the next 50 years.
In order to do this, some life style changes will be in order. I will do my
small part. Others will do theirs.
1:22
p.m. Life is projects, stories with a beginning, middle and end – but with
sustainability – at a minimum you want to be in the middle of your life span
and moving it forward.

→ Sustainability
– pushing the settlement forward.

p.m. At Little Bear. For the first time I climbed up on Patience – which from
the distance I’d recognized as “truth” – Patience has become truth? …
Practice
