FATHER and MOTHER DIVINE
FATHER had several Messages read by several of the secretaries, and at the conclusion thereof, a great Lesson unselfishness was taught by the Master Personally. Prior to the various Messages, FATHER called attention to very significant points for consideration, that we might all be united in heart, mind and Spirit, so that one and all might be benefited thereby. Consider ye, the Words of Christ
WE THANK THEE, LOVER OF OUR SOUL
(After the reading of the first Message, FATHER said the following:)
Another expression we might recognize. If there is something else desired to be read, as Miss Heavenly seems to reflect the contact of the Word very cheerfully, as a reiterator, of course, I might call on her to read something else. The great contact is to be made volitionally and harmoniously and gladly, and as it was manifested there expressly, it seemed to have been a harmonious contact and a close connection in the reading as it was MYSELF; therefore, as I feel as she was taking in the Words that were being read, it seems that it would be very essential, very harmonious to have her to read something that would make connection with the last Message that was read.
MY thought runs to the fact that someone of the others of the other readers might read something, but the contact seemed to be more accurately made with Miss Heavenly, by the reading of the Word.
Miss Heavenly will read something else, if anyone has something to read. It might be that she may have something to read, but it seems that the contact was made so accurately, that it should be a continuous harmonious connection.
The "Samsonville Message," of November 14th, given in the Divine Lodge, was suggested. Miss Rest had begun reading the Message when FATHER spoke the following:
Pardon ME, for interrupting at this particular juncture, but I would just like to say, "Throw open your minds and broaden your borders, that all might be in one, and that all might be 'connectable', that they might be attachable ..." We like for everything to dove-tail, so when it fits in accurately, it will be a wonderful expression. Open your minds, and we will have a wonderful expression, as each one reads together, all will make the rightful connection, dispelling all tendencies of directing your thought in any other direction other than on the Fundamental through complete consecration and sacrifice to GOD YOUR Savior ... Read on !(And so the reading continued.)
(At this juncture, we listened to FATHER as HE Personally gave us this wonderful Message which is edifying to all.)
PEACE EVEKYONE: I have often stressed, and still AM stressing the significance of visualization and the significance of dialation. As you concentrate on the One, the only Perfect Idea, the Fundamental, it will cause you through the concentration on the Perfect Picture, to incarnate through inculcating the Fundamentals of it, the very Nature and the Characteristics of it. For this cause, I did refrain from speaking up until this present moment, this morning, that the spirit of your mind and the mind of your spirit might collectively come together through concentration, and unify yourselves together as one man at Jerusalem, by "dialation." By dialing in on the Identical, the Fundamental is a reality, it is made real, tangible and practical, for it is as much reincarnatabe as it was in the beginning before it was firstly incarnated.
For this cause, we are rejoicing to realize as we think vividly in one direction, we become to be more and more unselfish collectively, and our minds are open to the receiving of the Spirit and the Nature of the Fundamental, and we become to be collective partakers of the identical Nature of Christ Your LORD and Your Savior.
Significance of Unselfishness
While sitting, listening and thinking of the great significance of unselfishness, I thought of the many different individuals who are great speakers. If one after the manner of men in MY Personal Appearance or likeness among them, might be an expresser of the identical expression that I AM expressing, if they can express perfectly above the measure of the average person, that is the person and expression that is appealing to ME as a person.
I looked and beheld as though there was one speaking a little while ago, when I thought and made an emotion of an expression of one of whom I delight in many of the expressions and emotions of the individual. Why do, and why is it that I delight in it or in them? It is because they are expressing at times, the same that I may attempt to express, or may be an Expresser of, yet, because they express such an emotion or an expression perfectly as a sample and as an example, I can rejoice in it.
Perfect Picture
MY thoughts should not be to ME as a Person, if there are other speakers who can, and who will speak from an angle of expression from whence I AM functioning more perfectly from that particular angle; I can rejoice in it. It is indeed Wonderful! Then I thought as I thought for consideration, it is a wonderful blessing to ME to consider a person speaking or singing— each of these two distinct expressions are expressions that I may term to be, expressions that are MY hobbies, speaking to the public. It may be termed preaching, or singing. I delight in doing these two distinct expressions. In the act of expressing them, I hear and I see others expressing from that angle, moving volitionally, speaking and singing inspirationally as perfect pictures from that angle. I rejoice in it, and I looked and beheld one a little while ago, and I thought and called your attention to one of the Followers. I often think of it. I rejoice in it; whensoever one can speak more perfect than I ordinarily speak MYSELF as a Person, I rejoice in sang and hearing that person speak, for l delight in Perfection coming to the surface that I, MYSELF, might observe it. Isn't that Wonderful?
Sample and Example for Others
If after the manner of song and praise, coming forth volitionally by inspiration, if it happens to come through an individual as the perfect expression from that angle, I can rejoice in it, because I should be open minded. If I close MY Mind to the person or persons who may speak or act from an angle of expression from which I may be expressing, more perfectly, because they are expressers of the same expression and may express it perfectly, if I close MY Mind to it, I would be narrow-minded. For this cause, I think I should open MY Mind at all times, to and for any volitionated expression that will come spontaneously and inspirationally through an individual.
I rejoice in hearing one in whom someone knows, yea, someone knows of whom I AM now speaking, someone knows in this dining room of whom I AM now speaking. You know I delight in hearing the individual speak volitionally, spontaneously and inspirationally, because when the door of human intellect is closed, the door of Inspiration is open, and such a door will also open up the way for an individual who is fully consecrated to speak valuationally and bring out new mysteries. For this cause, I rejoice in it. Now isn't that Wonderful? Then I say to MYSELF as an Individual, as a Sample and as an Example for others, I must continue to be open minded to rejoice in the volition of others, as they move volitionally, and as they move inspirationally.
Being Open Minded
It is a privilege to realize the significance of being open minded. By being open minded you are also at a place in consciousness wherein "dialation" can be a reality, for you will dial in on the inspirations that are given, as one has the right or privilege with his radio receiving set to dial in on the National Broadcasting System, or dial in on either one of the Systems, for conveying messages through the ether. Isn't that Wonderful! These different Broadcasting Systems, that convey messages through the ether, they are expressions that are for the general public, and all who will to, it is their privilege to dial in on them, if they wish to. Isn't that Wonderful?
Dial in on These Inspirations
Those who move spontaneously and volitionally, those who are transmitting thoughts from one to another through mental telepathy, it is your privilege to dial in on these Inspirations and volitionated expressions, for they are all Impersonal, if they are coming from the invisible realm of the Infinite One. Isn't that Wonderful? It is a privilege to realize mankind need not to be ignorant, but all have the privilege to be wise, if they will harmonize with that Inspiration and such volitionated expressions that will come through and by individuals who are moving spontaneously—in other words, volitionally; but if we close the door of our understanding towards them, if we will not be open minded enough to contact them, we will bar the access of this grace wherein I stand—and you will not be able to come in the Unity of the Spirit, of Mind and of Purpose through harmonization, neither through "dialation", but by the realization of GOD's Actual Presence, and by the Spirit of non-selfishness, you will, and you can unify yourself with every inspiration—in other words, you can very readily contact them, for, it is your privilege to do so, as they are impersonal. Isn't that Wonderful?
If there is a question of an individual speaking more scientifically than I, MYSELF, as a Person, I delight in seeing that individual come to the surface expressly. Isn't that Wonderful? If there be a thought as if though an individual can, and will speak from a Clergy standpoint of view, as a preacher more perfectly from that angle of expression, than I, MYSELF, I can rejoice in such an expression, for such an expression is also Impersonal. Isn't that Wonderful? But if I be narrow minded because a person may be looked upon to be, . as it may be termed, a better preacher than I, MYSELF as a Person, ... and if I should try to bar that person from MY Consideration, or from MY actual stressing that person in the consideration of others, why then, that would be a selfish act on MY part, and I would be barring the volitionated expression from ME, and I would become to be non volitional and also non-inspirational, therefore, MY Inspirations would cease to function, or cease to come forth spontaneously, because I would be desiring to use them selfishly. I AM talking about MYSELF. For this cause, I do rejoice.
Rejoice to Hear Mr. Joseph Speak
I will call the question and call to your consideration at this juncture, in the person of whom you know I AM now speaking—I rejoice to hear Mr. Joseph speak, and so do you, because he moves volitionally and spontaneously, because humanly speaking, it may be termed from a "clergical" point of view, as a preacher, you know he leaves ME far behind. You know he leaves ME far behind. For this cause I can rejoice in it, and if I rejoice in that which is the most perfect in the consideration of others, I may be working as far as that is concerned, unselfishly, but if I hold MY Mind, or close MY Mind and try to bind the volition and the concept of others concerning the volition of an individual who may speak perfectly from that angle of expression, then and there, I AM inculcating and reinculcating the spirit of selfishness in ME as an Individual, of which would put a ban on MY Volition and MY Inspiration, that might cause ME to speak volitionally and inspirationally.
Oh! that a Heart and Mind might always be discerned—each of them as a perfect unselfish expression and as a Sample and as an Example for others. Isn't that Wonderful? GOD in the midst of you is mighty to save. From whatsoever expression the perfect might be observable, endorse it readily and gladly. By so doing, you will be expressing an expression of unselfishness. That is why I like to have those to speak, to read, to testify, or do anything, those who can do it perfectly, who can do a perfect job of it.
GOD wants the best, and the best must be presented from every angle expressible, both mentally, spiritually and materially. We must seek the best, for GOD is Perfection. That is why we are seeking the best from every angle that GOD might be the Expresser in all of the different expressions, and that mankind might recognize HIS Presence now, henceforth and forever, here, there and everywhere.
Christ Who Dwells Within
I believe I have said more than I should have said, as I had the Message read that I might refrain from speaking as a Person, for the Message was the same as if though I had just said it. It is MY Version, I AM still thinking the same. MY Mind has not yet changed. Isn't that Wonderful!
Upon this Foundation if you will stand, how marvelous it will be with you. As you contact others and live in this recognition the very Spirit of MY Presence will be with you, giving Victory over undesirable conditions, for it will be no longer you, as a person, but it will be Christ Who dwells within you. HE Who dwells within you, is more than all things that can possibly be against you. I thank you.
