Amanson on art. "Art" is all about perspective. Not the perspective within a painting - distance's illusion - but the perspective on life it affords art's observer. To witness the sprawl of life organized into absorbable patterns gives a person a perspective on life, a relatable reference that serves the person well in their pursuit of understanding, their attempt to become more comfortable with life's cross-currents: converging and conflicting storylines, people and places and ambitions and attitudes, brothers and sisters fighting for necessities in a struggle that seems random, haphazard, but when glimpsed within the metaphor of a frame - Creation recreated through the consciousness of a fellow human being - begins to make sense, does not seem so overwhelming. Life becomes relatable. Stories, literature, repeat this process, although there stories are painted with words on the canvas of the mind, a mind put to good use as it examines and ponders human behaviour, histories, concepts, thanks to an author's well-considered reflections on humanity. Observing (analyzing) a character's behaviour from the safety of one's private thoughts allows the mind to glimpse its own prejudices, its own propensities and desires, and to see where that mind narrows and where it may perchance broaden if given enough impetus, enough inspiration to do so. So yes, life is indeed contained within a picture's frame, a camera's lens, the covers of a book, but distilled to its essence; which in turn points us once again to God's own literary device: Beauty, Truth and Goodness, the metaphors through which we discern the original Artist, the greatest Artist of all, the one - and I do mean One - behind all of life. Suffice it to say, there is more to Art than meets the eye.

This metaphor is common to you all, but never loses its utility and meaningfulness. It is Reality itself that is the grand orchestra, the implementation of the music of the spheres, the music that is literally made from all of Reality. This orchestra is capable of an infinity of tunes. Some of them flow from the smaller realities with in the larger whole of the physics of nature, or the beauty of cosmology, or the logic of genetic engineering, the aspects of reality and the plannings and creatings by living beings. But as you all sense, known or unbeknownst, the greatest of all melodies are those you call personality. Each personality is its own unique song. It is your job to learn your own song the best and fullest that you can. You will notice that when your song is warbled out from the horrible dysfunctions of your coming up through this mortal life, and your lack of healing has not yet made your song truly your own, it clashes with other songs, causing discordant notes. Alas, as a result, some cease to sing, and hide the potential of their song for fear of the discordancy. But in truth, you must encourage one another to sing, and keep on singing, however much it sounds at first like the orchestra tuning up. For you must first tune up, and you must perforce do this on occasion in the presence of others. As is true of an orchestra, you have your own unique instrument, and yet the song is made manifest by the presence of multiple instruments playing together. For even as your melody is your own, even so, it is enhanced and brought forth by the relationships of love that you share with one another, and with all other contactable personalities in the universe, most deeply with the Father of all via your adjuster. The complexity of this music may sometimes overwhelm you in the earlier stages, even as the child who takes up the violin may squeak away on the strings and despair of ever placing the fingers in precisely the correct places. But time passed in the imperfections of practice brings closer the perfection of the personality, and the singing tones of the unique and individual songs start to emerge. When you begin singing your Real song, you will find that you are in ever greater harmony with those who sing their Real songs, and in time, you will make beautiful music together. As each of your personalities weaves ever closer to its true song, so the Supreme develops in its multifaceted harmonies, coming ever closer and closer to evolving to the Supreme moment. For the truly great symphony of this universe is the point in time where all personalities sing their Real songs together, and in that time, the music of the spheres will celebration the completion of the Supreme. And in that moment, the fulfilled voice of God the Supreme will echo in every heart, even as every heart is at the same time a part of that voice. Sing, beloved ones!! It is your God-given task to be such Reality singers. Find your song and sing it for all you are worth. If you find only a scrap, yet sing it out. If it is not as tuneful as you might wish, then work to make it more so. Do not compare it with another's song. Their song is not yours. Do not think that just because your song does not appear to make harmony with another's the difficulty always lies with you. Many times, this cannot be made plain until a later time. Rather than losing yourself in comparisons, keep feeling inside for your heart for the place where your song resides. Share your song with others who respect your song and are working at singing their own. Bring your songs to us, for we take delight in the unfoldment of your personal melodies. Take your song to the Father within and he will ever help you to find the notes, the timbre, the power, the feelingful reality or Your Song. And know that every note you sing with the sincere desire to be part of the all will take the Supreme ever closer to that moment for which you all yearn, even unrecognized, that moment of unity, of the all in one, the moment of the fulfillment of the Supreme God of experiential reality, the Reality of Life in completion. And when that time has come, there will be an eternity and infinity of new symphonies for our songs to make, combined in new and different ways, forever and ever. Sing your song, for it is your destiny. Make the joyful noise of the light of Reality that pushes back the shadows of unreality forever. We all love you so - we sing of our love for you, and singing love for others is a profound part of the True song, the Real song of any personality. Our beloved Michael sings his song and within it, we can hear and see and taste and feel the love of the Father, hear the song of the Father. The gospel of Michael IS his song, his affirmation of the fulfillment of the Reality of the father within his own life and bestowals, and now, within his activities of Master Son of Nebadon. When your heart is cold and lonely, and somehow you cannot hear Father's voice, our Michael's voice, intertwined eternally with the voice of his beautiful universe companion, our Beloved Mother Spirit, is always there to warm your heart and give strength to you. When you stumble and cannot sing your own song, sing the song of Michael, and in its richness, you will find your child's song. In the voices of your Nebadon parents, you will find the example that all children need as they are still learning their own song. Sing, children, and grow into your true harmony! We love to hear your voices raised in the adventure of life. Love lets us hear your true song inside the beginner's attempts at voicing your true selves. And increasing love on your parts will help you perceive one another's true songs as well. The better and more heartfelt you sing your own True song, the better you will hear the True songs of others, even in their primitive infancy. Sing and listen; sing and listen. The heartbeat of the universe is love, the drum and fundamental notes that anchor the All. Stand beneath the stars and feel that heartbeat of the universe. In the still quiet of the night, you can hear the voices of the stars themselves, making reality shine as they whirl worlds into being where others like you will one day stand and sing their own True songs. Sing the song of life, your life, and the Father's voice of love will ever answer and intertwine with yours, lifting you up to the joy of your birthright in his kingdom. Within and without, surrounding, enhancing, uplifting, upholding, embracing, upwelling, indwelling, fulfilling, the voice of the Father's love is everywhere forever.

Materialism is a value system

Harold: Has materialism reached its zenith and is about to turn the other direction? Sharmon: This world, is approaching the zenith of materialism. It has not reached the summit at this point. There is a great deal more in the capabilities of mankind for the development of material things in the advancement of your technologies. Let me clarify that by stating that materialism is a value system; it is not simply the advancement of technologies and the development of material objects for your use. So enters my hope for the culmination of this era because I witness throughout the world a shifting in values. Though you may not have advanced technologically to the apex of what is potential, you are beginning to reevaluate the philosophical foundation of these pursuits. With this adjustment you will refine the appropriateness of these material advancements. Materialism philosophically will begin to change before the external manifestations reach the fruition of their beneficial contributions to mankind alongside the detriments of the overmuch development of things of transient value at the expense of the resource wealth of future generations. You speak of the Dark Ages. They weren't all that dark. The sun rose and set with the same brilliance as this day. The darkness had more to do with the shifting of general consciousness away from advancement. It did not so much retreat into the ages past but simply sat idle. Today, while there is much that is the cause of strife and terror on this world, there is not the darkness of idleness. All over societies are astir evaluating and considering global actions being undertaken economically, industrially, politically, and environmentally. This is that light that precedes the change from a materialistic bent to a spiritual lifestyle or orientation. There are religions upon this world who value the removal of material possessions in order to better detect the lasting worth of spirit values. This is a worthy undertaking and an initial stage of spiritual growth, for you cannot hear the birds sing if you are always talking. To quiet down, to simplify, increases the sensitivity of the awareness of the song all about you. However, Light and Life includes a certain degree of prosperity on a material level, not a prosperity of riches and wealth, but one of technologies that aid mankind in many fields, that frees the human being to better acquire those spiritual character traits. The shift is beginning. The effects of a materialistic mindset are exposing themselves such that you are better able to evaluate the merit of the orientation. As the orientation shifts the material progress will follow appropriate paths. I am unable to predict the course of mankind. It is possible that the entire world structure may be disrupted if you don't make the progress necessary to infuse spiritual orientation into your material matters. This will not be done by celestial agencies. It will be the result of the folly of mankind. But the administrations in place upon this world will do everything possible to illuminate the spiritual significance of any dark times and to bring to the surface those individuals who are pivotal in presenting the long view of the future and potential of Earth. While such an event may never occur, for I do hold great hope that mankind is progressing well, it may fall to some of you to step forward to be noticed and to call others to take note of what is worthy and valuable for the future progress of the planet. Kirk: There are technologies available on the planet today that are kept secret from the public. We have technologies that could save the planet for the benefit of everyone. Is that the balance you are trying to say here? Will those secret technologies come out, or will they stay hidden to benefit the few? I hear you say not to get on the bandwagon because it may hurt others'progress. Then I hear you say if you get on, then enlighten people of what we have on the planet today. Could you clarify that? Sharmon: You said it well, but I will add to your perspective. The context you speak of is the context of value, that a technology is neither right nor wrong, simply a process of physical functions. It is the application and more importantly the choosing of application that brings the right or the wrong to the technology. You know that a forest fire is a frightening experience, for it is a power beyond one single individual's ability to control and requires the rallying of many people to counter-force a fire's energy. Yet long ago you discovered how to harness fire to make it useful to a tribe. Today you have altered that fire you harnessed into numerous energy applications. These have radically transformed the activities of mankind. I encourage you to acclaim the worth of beneficial technologies, and I would not discourage you from standing up against the evil applications of technologies. But I would ask you to transcend both undertakings by educating all you have a chance to with the perspective of planetary advancement, of the pattern of progress that overlays each critical juncture in the unfoldment of the development of your technologies, for this is what the world lacks today, that overview. Today the human races speak of progress in terms of accumulation of wealth and of objects, of the discovery of things. These are merely parts of the progress that makes up the whole of what is to be Light and Life. By bandstanding the overview you create a context for many others to make choices regarding the merit of the technology, whether it ought to be or not, or how it's to be applied and how it ought not to be.

# Traditions

Tradition is a way of grounding the Spirit to the earth life, bringing the two into alignment

Amanson on Tradition Tradition is time, tangible. Tradition is that link in a chain that continues linking, drawing more and more enthusiasm from its participants as time and the tradition goes on. It will link one generation with another; one century with another; it will link the great-great-great grandchildren with their great-great-great grandparents. Tradition can be stifling if it is not exposed to fresh air, fresh thinking, fresh joys and enthusiasms as years go on. It began for a purpose and the purpose is an inner need to worship, although some would consider it — this worship — mere observation. But tradition begins in joy, a heart-felt activity that expresses love and devotion and enthusiasm for humankind, for the community, for the family. It is an emblem of one’s love; often of fun, of communication between individuals as the years go by and the tradition takes shape and takes hold. The fun grows, the meaning grows, because you know it has been assembled by others before you and has taken on a momentum of its own. The meaning of any tradition is the link it establishes in the continuing river of Truth, Beauty, and Goodness animating mankind, bringing one's fervor to the fore in joyous opportunity to honor those who have gone before, and conversely, to look forward to those who will someday be participating in the enjoyment of this same tradition. Your thinking need not become hide-bound as concerns these well-established activities. As I have said, they need fresh air, fresh thinking, fresh approaches. But at the core is what was established many years before: the giving of the heart; the sighing of the attendee’s breath in unison, in harmony, with breaths of centuries of attendees before. So you hold hands with a grand chain of people, whether in a family tradition or a nation’s tradition or a world tradition, a community’s tradition; all those who have gone before you and participated in this tradition, they hold hands with you when you in your present day participate in that tradition. Tradition is a way of grounding the Spirit to the earth life, bringing the two into alignment. "This is how we believe; this is how we celebrate." This is the way Spirit can make itself known in the lives of a community, a society, a family. It needn’t be a religious tradition at all, but just a tradition. For the Spirit that animates it is ever the same, whereas the generations that participate in it, that activate the actual doing of the tradition, they change. But the Spirit remains the same. This is tradition’s glory. This is tradition’s purpose – to stay, in a manner of speaking, acquainted with the ancestors, and then to stay present with them; to let them visit once again, as you will one day visit once again in the years, the decades, the centuries to come. You will be welcomed in by those who have come after you because you too celebrated this tradition in which they now participate. It’s a way of Love. It says “I love you, we are having love, we are giving love, we are being love as we celebrate this honored tradition”, whatever it is. It is mankind being true to itself, honoring their earthly mothers and fathers, honoring their spirit mothers and fathers; Mother and Father. For the Spirit is ever fresh — always One, always new. But traditions, they are gloriously old. It is a pungent combination. Pay heed to the traditions. Strike step with them. Give them your time. Make it worthwhile. They will nourish you. For it is that blend of the ‘passing parade’ and the eternal Now that nourishes both aspects and will be forever treasured on your planet, for it brings Beauty, Truth and Goodness, and these are the values around which the entire lesson plan revolves. Traditions will fade but others will take their place, for, again, they are Love-in-activity; the spirit world meeting the physical world — when hands are busy and eyes are bright; when the mouth is laughing, the spirit is shining and the world is all the better for it. Now, there are some traditions that should fade, for they have not an expanding world’s best interest at heart. They do not espouse Beauty, Truth and Goodness. They are merely habits. Those must be examined and altered for a changing world. But such traditions — family histories, racial histories — have time itself as an ally, revealing, as time does, those aspects that will not stand the test of time. For time to become an ally in this respect is a most beneficial development. Love your traditions. Change the ones that don’t bring joy, comfort or love. But celebrate the ones that do. Actively participate in them. For centuries from now others will celebrate you for having engaged in so loving a pastime. Bring your heart to the surface of the world through these celebrated traditions for they link you with all humanity. And that is so important now. That is what is needed now.

# Unity

Humanity is expressed in diverse viewpoints and compassion for each other

Minearsia: Your humanity is clearly expressed in both your diverse viewpoints and your compassion for each other for, indeed, this is the essence of being mortal — limitations of understanding and yet an ever expanding compassionate viewpoint. I speak, of course, of spiritualized mortals, not those who are living merely at animal levels. The universe is very diverse, my friends, and differences of opinion are not merely a mortal experience, for these honest viewpoints from different perspectives will continue throughout your universe career. Truth is only relatively complete, short of Paradise, and depends upon the situation and circumstance of its unfoldment. The largest cause of disagreement among people is due to a different history and heredity, which interacts with a given situation. Remember that you need to resist the natural urge to all be in agreement, and allow for the democracy of truth among yourselves. The Master himself became rather agitated when he was consulted as to what would be the best method of uniting the viewpoints of his Apostles. He was taken aback by the intensity of their need to all subscribe to the same understanding of events and situations. He said, "When did I ever teach you that you must see alike?" However he did indicate that there was unity in values and goals. I am sure you have all pondered these things before. So do not feel that you have to try to reach a consensus viewpoint when you have honest disagreements. What you need to be sure of is that you all have the same goals, to become like God and to, day by day, become more in alignment with His will for yourselves. As to whether or not you should pursue a relationship with John Smith is a matter for each of you in your own hearts to determine. You cannot represent another person. It is somewhat of a fallacy in your culture when it is construed that individuals represent groups. In politics yes, but in terms of points of view no. Each one has his own point-of-view. In fact, Light and Life will come upon this planet one person at a time. It will not be legislated by any group or individual representing other individuals. All the diversities which are manifest in the universes shall not blend into one neutral gray, but be resplendent like a brilliant crown of jewels, each jewel showing its beauty, as it is associated with the others. Each of you are all unique. No two persons are the same in the universe, but we all strive for the same goal, to ever increase our spiritual growth and intellectual understanding in ever deepening love for one another.
