Dear Friends,
This week's quote is from spiritual awareness class A/V Seminar 4 , which will soon be published in Volume 12 of The Living Light Dialogue.
“And so, my good students, when you want to know where you are, all you have to do is to pause, be honest with yourself, ask yourself the question: how joyful and how willing are you to change? If you find change difficult, if you find change an emotional experience of trauma for you at the very thought of change, then be rest assured, you, at that moment in your life, have fully identified with one of the four planes of consciousness of the functions of form, your form.
And so change, the Law of Evolution, through repetition, and the spirit of spontaneity offers to you great opportunity to experience personally for yourself where you are at the moment you have earned that opportunity. To tell a person what is going to happen (that represents a change for them) is to permit the person to work on all of their judgments that they believe that they are and then to demonstrate the letter of the law that killeth, not the spirit of the law, which is the spontaneity of life itself. And so when the four planes of consciousness do not receive what they judge is a forewarning, they react and they tell you where you are at that moment. They not only tell you where you are, they tell you what you believe you are. And you experience their resentment, their retaliation because they did not know in advance. My friends, knowledge knows much; however, wisdom knows better."
One of the key teachings of this philosophy is to be ever ready and willing to change. Hold not to form, for form ever changes. And it is our holding to form, both physical and mental form, that causes us so much misery. And we hold to mental forms in our belief that we are the thoughts and judgments that we have created and over-identified with.
