Dear Friends,
This week's quote is from spiritual awareness class CC 16, which will be published in Volume 1 of The Living Light Dialogue. This quote begins with a question from a student and their words are italicized.
“Getting back to the topic of reason, when you have to put something into balance, like a problem that is right here and now, to make a decision on, what do you do? Do you stop and let the mind become still? How do you put this into balance? How do you get into balance?"
"By becoming aware of oneself. You see, my friends, one cannot balance what one is not aware of. So the first thing is to become aware of the minds that we are and the patterns that we have established. Then, we become in a position to balance them out. Now we may attempt to balance, but until we become aware of what and who we truly are—and that is within the realm not only of possibility, but it is within the realm of probability, here and now. You don’t have to wait years to become aware. This is what these awareness classes are all about: to help you to become aware. Now that doesn’t mean that every student in the class is agreeing about what the teachings are all about, because not every student is on the same level of awareness. Now there are moments when some students are on the same level. Sometimes it lasts almost for a full sentence of communication and gradually it begins to last a little bit longer. But, you see, they have a rapport because they’re on the same level at that particular time and, therefore, they’re able to communicate in a clear and intelligent way.”
Both Mr. Goodwin and the angels had wonderful senses of humor, and humor is not only a soul faculty but it is also the salvation of our soul.
