Anne Blaney — Well, I had considered playing that music [“Mystery”, by the Paul Winter Consort] at the very outset of our time when we were all gathered together, and as things worked out, it happened! I hope it helped create a certain atmosphere for us. I'll repeat the chorus:
Oh Mystery you are alive; I feel you all around.
You are the fire in my heart; you are the holy sound,
You are all of life; it is to you that I sing.
Grant that I may feel you, always in everything.

Recently the theme of “mystery” has been showing up in various communications. For example, in a recent postings on Great Cosmic Story, in a service entitled “To Know”, Martin Cecil referred to the great mystery. [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/2022/07/to-know.html] He was speaking of the book “Hanta Yo”, which describes native spirituality, and in this service Martin twice quoted a poem by the author which begins with the sentence,“I stand at the center”. I'm going to read two verses, changing the order in which they appear:
I am that which they call Great Mystery.
I am that which each one calls Wakantanka before coming here,
before seeing the light.
I am here, and so I know here.
Here I know everything. Here I know myself.
and
I stand at the center
and the light shines all around me
and now I know that my spirit glowing makes this light.
I come into power with the sun for I am the sun.
I am my own light.
And Martin, in his characteristic way of distilling to the core, said again in the evening service, “I stand at the center and the light shines all around me. I am the light.” [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/2022/07/to-stand-at-center.html] And it's true. As we stand at the center, we are that radiant presence as of the sun, of the light that we each are, of the light which surrounds us in this level of creation, the light that we see in forms everywhere, as the song “Mystery” says.
Recently on the website the Great Cosmic Story there was a service by Martin, entitled “The True Holograph”, which I want to quote as we collectively gather substance, all of us together now. [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/2022/07/the-true-holograph.html] He was speaking of a letter that Martin had received from Bill Bahan, Sr, who had just met up with David Bohm in England. So this is Martin quoting the letter from Bill: “Using scientific terms he [David Bohm] has come to some interesting realizations, showing much truth moving in his subconscious. I would quote one of his realizations: ‘The theory, in a nutshell: Our brains mathematically construct “concrete” reality by interpreting frequencies from another dimension, a realm of meaningful, patterned primary reality that transcends time and space. The brain is a hologram, interpreting a holographic universe.’” And then Martin said: “Maybe he needs to see that there is more to it than the brain, but what he says we should understand. We create our own worlds, what he calls “concrete reality,” the environment around us.” And then again Martin, with his ability to distill, said, “I have described this process in a little different terms. This is Martin's phrasing: “There is a vibrational state of primary reality transcending space and time. Obviously something emerges into space and time. It emerges there because of human beings.”
Shirley Malin recently gave a service [templeoflightservices.blogspot.com/2022/04/divine-woman-shirley-malin-april-17.html] and she blessed us with so many descriptions and insights and stories. But there was this one paragraph that stuck out for me, and I knew I wanted to go back to it. So I pulled it out, and I'd like to read it to you, because it fits. Shirley said: “Martin said, there may be all kinds of things that are wrong, unjust, unfair, but all such distorted patterns would very easily evaporate if one didn't support them. I mean, all the things that are going on in the earth now. How do you suppose they have any energy to continue? Where does that force come from? It all comes from the Creator, whether it's for disintegration or integration. It's all from the same source, so what is disrupting it? What's creating the mess? It's the impure heart. It's like a transistor radio seeking to receive the transmission from the Lord, and then there's so much static in it that what comes out is indiscernible; and we have robbed all this beautiful energy that has been provided for us to fill the earth, to replenish the earth, to bless the earth; and we have distorted it because of self-centeredness.”
I'm using these different quotations here so that I can share with you an experience that I've been having for about seven months, in a focused way. I feel this experience is a blessing that we all have been given: it's called attunement. I think attunement has an ability, with regard to what I just read, to bring a transcendent reality into our experience here in space and time, specifically because it works with substance. It intensifies a generation of substance and works with focusing radiation of a transcendent reality, so that the radiation can come through and into our very experience in space and time. This to me is pretty magical, something that we were offered and I'm guessing something we've all experienced many times. We've all shared attunements.
Recently certain things have happened in the world, and in my life, and as often happens, an opportunity arose where I recognized I was available to share attunement with a few specific people who were working with specific issues. I entered into this world of attunement that quite honestly I hadn't fully penetrated before. And I know many of you have! I know many are here today who have deep experience of attunement, and I certainly am not going to try to describe the whole of what attunement is because I don’t know it and each one has their own experience of it. But I will describe what has happened for me. Working with attunement has brought into my awareness that it's all about the radiation. When we talk about the transcendent reality, the light, the dimensions that are in another realm, another way to describe it is that there's radiation entering into this level of creation that is fueling and giving life to everything in this level of creation which. according to our translation, can reveal something of patterned, meaningful transcendent reality. Radiation is something that we could well meditate on for our whole lifetime.
When we share attunement we are specifically working as conduits of radiation. I use the word conduit because I feel the radiation is not ours to possess or own. The radiation is life, it involves a transcendent reality that we may experience at this level of creation. We have an opportunity to experience and even begin to understand what that transcendent reality is: life, light, radiation right, here in the flesh on earth. Attunement is an incredible vehicle for this. When I share attunement, for various reasons it's mostly been long distance attunment. I think it was Joseph Antell who said in Chris Jorgensen's book [Attunement The Creator's Magic] that once you begin to experience long distance attunement you will be forever changed. And that has certainly been my experience. Of course it's wonderful to have a real body lying in front of you in a yielded stance, and that has huge merits!
When you're sharing a long distance attunement, as an angel, with another angel you have less distraction of the immediate physicality. You're encouraged to touch into the invisible realms in a more consequential way. I also find that because you are working at a distance, your own consciousness becomes more activated. After all, there's nobody else there, physically! But you can operate from your point of consciousness. I bring many things to focus in consciousness, so that consciousness is actively participating in the attunement. The radiation is coming through consciousness, in addition to the hands. The awareness came clear pretty quickly, that I was indeed, sharing an attunement. I wasn't necessarily giving an attunement. I was actually sharing attunement with another angel. Together we were coming into an experience of union at the level of being, which was allowing for an intensification of the radiation, for that person's physical body, for my physical body and potentially for our minds. There was an actual sharing going on, and together there was a lighting up that was going out beyond us.
But before I get into that, and various things that I've learned, I have to acknowledge—and I know you will understand this—where the radiation actually originates, where it has its source. What is that transcendent reality, where is it, how does that experience of a transcendent reality happen? Where is it? We have to acknowledge—as Tony Palombo so beautifully highlighted in the last service here in the Temple of Light—the attitude that the earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof. The radiation actually has a source which Shirley also mentioned. So I, coming to the experience of sharing attunement, must first be in attunement with the Source, the Creator, in yieldedness, with an absolute humility. This is something that I am participating in by virtue of the Creator. I'm able to intensify and focus my own radiation, but it is because it's in alignment and in union with a far greater source. I am an aspect of that Source. As an angel I am a creator, I am a radiant being. So that's the beginning point.
We all know that an attunement begins with the pineal gland, and works with the first three spiritual points in the physical body. Those points represent, you might say, the heavenly aspect of a being, a heavenly aspect of an angel in human form. I envision those points in the physical body as focus points of receptivity to the spirits of love and truth and life. Can you think of a more ingenious design,-- to have capacities with these points in our very physical being which are highly attuned and ready to connect with the transcendent reality? Looking at the last three seals, I envision three other focus points: representing the spirit of new earth, the spirit of the single eye, and of spiritual expression or spirit of blessing. You might say those are the earth aspects of a being, of an angel in human form. So you have two lots. You have the heaven and you have the earth; and then what happens in the middle? We have what I will generally call the heart realm, coming to focus in the thymus gland. At a certain point, it dawned on me that this was the crossover point. This is what connects the heaven aspect and the earth aspect. When I saw this, I admit it was a real mind blower. I actually realized the importance of the heart realm in the process of bringing the heaven and the earth and aspects of a being together as one.
I discovered that when I come to an attunement, one of the main things for both the person giving the attunement and the person receiving the attunement is the fact that a troubled heart simply does not work. It will literally stop the current from being perceived. It's only as I come in into the attunement experience with a calm appreciation, humble appreciation for what I've been invited into, that the current begins to pick up. The radiation increases. There's something about removing the troubled heart, the restless schemes, all that. When those fall away, the current flows and the radiation actually influences one's heart realm, which is ready to receive this, we’re designed to receive this! A fire you might say, lights up one's being, and one comes into union—union within oneself, union with the person you’re in attunement with, and together in union with the Lord.
So, from that I have learned a certain responsibility, to come to an attunement with a calm heart, with a humble heart. And if that happens before the attunement, then it has to be sustained after the attunement. For me this has become an incredible purification process. I know you all have your own experience with this, and this is preaching to the choir, but I want to emphasize what a learning opportunity this vehicle has afforded. For example, there are occasions when,— during cycles when I am involved in an attunement with another angel, occasions arise when I have to instantly attune to the transcendent state, to the finest dimensions coming in, rather than to any disturbance that might be appearing in my world. “Responsibility” is the word that comes up. When sharing attunement, particularly when something very serious is working out with someone, I have entered into a contract with that person, and I have a responsibility in that contract. If I would not hold and honor that sacred contract in my living all the time, it would be tantamount to literally dropping a person. I couldn't do that anymore. I could not do that, particularly emphasized when it applies to a specific angel. Now what does that say? It means that this is representative of something that's happening all the time with many of those that we are connected with. It really brought a new sense of heightened responsibility, which wasn't a burden! It was a huge gift.
Another aspect that happens when substance is generated, this finer substance, the substance of love, is that I find—and I'm sure you've had this experience—that thoughts and feelings come into awareness that I have never had before. I can tell that these are original thoughts and feelings arriving in the moment, that are aspects of the transcendent reality coming into awareness. I find this an extremely interesting aspect of attunement. Now, you might say, are you really helping this other person heal from the some physical ailment? Well, I have redefined what actually is happening when in attunement. When the radiation is heightened, which is love—love casts out fear. Let love cast out whatever imbalance is present. So the actual ailment, although it has been impacted, you might say, becomes secondary to the presence of the angel who is taking dominion, unified with the physical capacity, and that is what heals.
All these things have been a great blessing to me. In my particular being—maybe you're one of these beings; I think we all are to some extent—I need those times of sanctified space, of holiness, in my day, and it has opened up a new quality in my awareness in the living of the rest of my life. I've also come to realize that attunement takes many forms—we all know this—that when I'm doing anything actually, I am allowing the radiation from the undimensional to come through me as a human being: as a Being, being human.
So I wanted to open up this area and to honor it—and I'm thinking of those attunement servers who are watching me; I can see your faces— to honour this vehicle called attunement and the opportunity it affords. I read something Martin said, after I’d been having this experience I’ve been describing. He said, ‘Attunement is designed to provide what is needful initiate the process by which a consciousness of the oneness of heaven and earth may be known once more.” The transcendent reality, the heaven, becomes part of our earth here in space and time. What a blessing attunement is, which can initiate that experience. Now you may have had that experience that heaven and earth are one through attunment initiated a long time ago. And I'm so grateful for all of those who have. For me, this has been a deep gift that has come to me, and I wanted to share it and open up this subject for consideration.
Now I'd like to turn it over to my friend Deborah Starrs, who has been patiently listening to what I'm saying; and Deborah, I hope that I've offered you some openings that you can continue in unfolding through your beautiful consciousness. I look forward to hearing what you're going to say.

Deborah Starrs — Thank you very much, Anne, for this opportunity. As you were speaking about attunement it came to my mind that I very much enjoy discovering people who are awakening to the truth of themselves, and they're all over the internet these days. I love to enfold them. They're every bit as enthusiastic about a “God's plan,” and “God wins,” but they also emphasize individual responsibility in letting that come on earth. So I ran across one particular fellow who was speaking about human beings contributing and changing the “biosphere.” As we travel across town or across the world, we're breathing. we're sweating, etc., but he also said that we influence the “pneumasphere.” Well, that is interesting, because it sounds very much like “pneumaplasm.”
Saint Francis came to mind. Our presence in the world impacts physically and vibrationally. We do live in a world of our own creation, and we are responsible for the quality of it. We each have a journey that brought us to here and now, and I have very much enjoyed hearing other people's personal experience of coming to spiritual knowledge, and so I thought I would share a few incidents of my journey which, as things were happening, my life appeared to be kind of unfocussed; no coherent direction at all. But nothing could be further from the truth.
I was five years old on a beautiful summer day and the vacant lot next to my grandmother was planted with roses. I was kind of small for my age at the time, and many of those roses towered over my head. It was like a rose forest, and I was wandering up and down the aisles, singing to myself. It was so beautiful. And then suddenly something came over me of great sadness. It didn't make any sense at all, and I started crying, almost sobbing. Because I couldn't figure it out I was rubbing my head. Well, I finally wandered into the house and my grandmother and mother intercepted me. They wanted to know what was wrong. I didn't know. I only knew that something terrible had happened. So finally they asked, “Did you bump your head?” I said, “Yes, that's what happened!” Then I got hugs and kisses and went on my merry way back outside to swing in the swing set. That was my first experience of such a thing. I knew something and I didn't know how. Around that same age, my father sat me on a stool and he taught me the meaning of, and the spelling of, the word “integrity,” which was to figure very much into my life in later years. He also taught me the word “propaganda,” its meaning, and how to spell it. when I was a teenager.
I give great thanks to my parents, both of whom set me up beautifully to discover and establish a spiritual foundation for my living. Dad was an interesting man. He was a staunch patriot who believed that our rights come from God as the Declaration of Independence states. He was a genius inventor credited with 23 patents. He also had a good sense of humor. If you would ask him any question, however mundane or out of the blue, like “What would you like for dinner?” he would say, “I haven't given it much thought, and furthermore, I'm not going to change my mind.” I really appreciated that sense of humor, and I found it to stand me in good stead.
In my early twenties, consistently a group of three of us, and sometimes more—would get together to consider all things spiritual. And one evening it came up that Jesus died on the cross for your sins. And again, out of the blue I had this overwhelming, vehement response, “No. No, that is not true.” Well, nobody had ever told me that; I had never read it. My friends looked at me like I had two heads. Well, fast forward and these same two friends took me off to the Dallas First Annual Psychic Fair to hear the Reverend Dr. Bill Bahan speak. The next thing I knew I was at Lake Rest, and then at a one month class at 100 Mile House. Sitting in the little Log Chapel, I heard Uranda's voice for the first time, and the tears came. It took me right back to that rose garden, which must have been August 4 th, 1954. He was introducing “Meeting My King” [Uranda August 14, 1953] and I was meeting my King who didn't die on the cross. I'm sure you've had these knowings—perhaps they are preform thoughts. Coming events do cast their shadows, and then in the spiral of living they come round to come true.
I’ll give you one more incidence. I met Tom Starrs on two casual occasions, and only knew him through his writings in “Word of Grace.” When my good friend came home from Green Pastures engaged to Tom, I thought, “No, no! I'm supposed to be with him.” I went home talking to myself. Then I let it go. Well, 20 years or so later a mutual friend put us together at a dinner party, and we're still together. No, I'll give you one more regarding a trip for Integrity where Chris Foster intercepted me on my first landing in Bombay (now Mumbai) India. We were riding into the city past miles of mounds with people seemingly living on them. It was all so familiar to me! When I grabbed his arm, and said, “Chris, Chris, I know this place,” he replied, “Yes, Deborah, I believe you do, but you're hurting my arm.”
So we have these knowings. Some Bible verses came to mind, from Philippians 4:7, “And the peace,”—we could say “knowledge”—of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ.” This is the Christed mind. From Habakkuk 2:14, “For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.” These knowings are not gut feelings or guardian angels. No, it's the angel coming forth with the knowledge of the Lord.
In recent years I've been watching and praying unceasingly. Human nature is quite predictable; it's ancient in fact. It wants to control everything—from the weather, the climate, the population, people and events, money—to be as God. It seeks to control through fear, manipulation, guilt, coercion, and deception is the big one. It would be quite comical if it wasn't so brutally destructive. Oh, yes, and human nature loves to brag; it's arrogant. A far cry from “the earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof, the world and they that dwell therein.”
I recall Uranda mentioning that there were 7 billion angels looking after this planet. So am I to believe him? or am I to believe a mind-made computer model, behind which is an agenda, where we are all tended over by machines of loving grace? I think not, and really, what does it matter, if I know. I know the provision of the Lord is such to provide for however many of us are here; and who knows? it may just take that number of us here to get the job done.
I test the spirits constantly. Thomas Jefferson had a great bit of advice: “Fix reason firmly in her seat and call to her tribunal every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness, even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear.” Here, here! Principled opposition is priceless. I am reminded that the Master turned over the tables of the money changers. That must not have been pretty. He exposed them all, especially those in power. “Whited sepulchres, full of dead men's bones” are still with us. This passage from Luke 8:17 comes to mind. “For nothing secret, that shall not be made manifest, neither anything hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.”
We'd say that all things come to light. As things do come to light, we see them only with our eyes and no emotional entanglements. That is not to say that we do not feel deeply. Jesus wept. I've wept. I’m sure you have too. There has been so much suffering in the world that seems so unnecessary, unless people awaken. Who will watch and pray? Martin mentioned in a service that we are moving into an atmosphere in the cosmos where the distortion of human nature can no longer be tolerated. I am interested in participating in that, bringing beauty, compassion, the truth of being, as I move in the biosphere and pneumasphere. I have great compassion for leadership, consistently down through the ages, committed to the restoration of man. We play an intercessory role in our immediate circumstances, individually and together. We find ourselves in great good company with many people we don't really know, who are doing the work, too.
I was a frequent visitor to the Hundred when Martin was there and always said “goodbye” before I left. Prior to one particular departure I was directed to the garden where I found him admiring the blooms. I took his hand in both of mine and told him, “I can't imagine being alive and not knowing you.” He smiled and laid his hand on mine so that he had both hands on one of mine, and said, “We are all richly blessed.” At that moment a cloud of light descended and enveloped us. I know this can happen when there is agreement in heaven on earth.
Functioning to our highest vision, we have experienced increasing vision, and increasingly find ourselves in the right place at the right time, to do the delightful work we've come to do individually and together. I would just close my portion with a poem from Lord Exeter titled, “To Pray Without Ceasing”
Whatever arises, let me dwell in the secret place of the Most High.
Let there be a place of stillness in the midst of turmoil.
Let there be a place of light amidst darkness.
Let there be a place of ease amid disease.
Let there be a place of order in the chaos.
Let there be a place of love and beauty in the midst of fear and ugliness.
Let my presence be a beacon of enfolding radiance in every circumstance.
Be still and know. Thank you.
Anne — Thank you, Deborah. I like your emphasis on the fact that we find ourselves in configurations, in settings, in experiences that we haven't determined, we haven't figured them out with our minds, but when we look around we realize that we're experiencing something of the sacred, and we we derive significance and meaning from those various experiences that we find with one another. I also appreciate the fact that you were talking about true thinking, clear thinking and observing, as you said, with your eyes only; an actual knowing, in a different way than the human mind knows. And I think that the substance as it is generated, as its fuller, as it's still, allows that to happen. So I think we're talking about the same experience.
What I love is the emphasis that you brought, and what I think I was talking about, that this is actual experience. It's not an intellectual knowing, although that can come, often after the fact. But it's actually a knowing and experience. Heaven is at hand. We are, as Martin said, truly blessed. I also appreciate how you mentioned that the human mind makes interpretations of the world, as you relayed in that story about your father, you know, defining for you “integrity” and talking about “propaganda”, about how there will be things seen, maybe by others that may not be so. But there is an opportunity to see it in a whole new way. Here's a paragraph before we open it up for comments. It's in a service by Martin that was entitled “Attunement”, and I think you're going to see it on the Great Cosmic Story soon, so this is the preview:
“Many human beings have attempted to assume this attitude [the the earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof] but generally speaking they immediately build up concepts about God, about the truth, and they establish once again a world based in their concepts and beliefs. So, while with the lips claims are made that there is the recognition, ‘The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein,’ it has had no effect; they remain in the hands of man. But he may think that by becoming spiritual, or at least religious, he can get around the fact that the earth is the Lord's, while continuing in his own determination to keep the world for himself, all without treading on God's toes. So these words at the beginning of this Psalm do not imply that we should begin to develop religious concepts or religious beliefs; it is merely a recognition of a fact, which we do not understand presently but which we may understand if we follow through in the creative cycle by which we are restored into the state where heaven and earth are one in our own experience.”
I think that you could replace spiritual and religious experience by political. There are many belief systems and concepts through which people view the world, and to actually have clear thinking is something that we have a responsibility for and access to. So I just wanted to mention that, too. The earth is the Lord’s, and that includes our own consciousness. Life, the Creative Process is moving through all of us and moving us with that, and that doesn't mean we are powerless victims. But we are in union with what moves because we are that also. I’d like to open up now for comments from any of you who wish to say something in our company today.
Greg Fladager — I think it's just a pleasure to be connected in this way. I was thinking, as I was listening to you two, that who you are came through so loudly; and I really appreciate what you said.
Millicent Holliday — Who you are came through so loudly with me and I feel I have to jump right in now and voice my shear delight at the beauty of what both of you offered. You gave such a clear picture of what it actually means to come to a place of realization, of knowing absolutely, with no shadow of turning that one can only keep moving upward in the spiral, and never ever turn our backs on the truth that we know. That to me is what you both embodied today, just inviting us into the Temple of Light. And I'm so aware of all that Uranda did was inviting us into the Temple, through the Seven Steps to the Temple of Light which is the attunement process; and as we come to realization, purification is a natural thing, and then we are in the inner realms, and heaven and earth are one. I do so appreciate the beauty of what you both provided.
Bill Bahan — Thank you Anne and Deborah for what we've shared today. As Anne mentioned a number of times, we're interested to come to the experience of attunement. Martin said, Life is not a mystery to be solved, but an experience to be known, and today we have known the experience of attunement. We just know it. You initiated the process by which we may have a greater consciousness of the oneness of heaven and earth. We've known that. We're at one, and this experience of oneness is always present with us to be known. How beautiful to know it!
Pamela Gray — I would like to add my voice of appreciation for both of you and what spirit brought forth, your unique essences and your stories. Anne, you mentioned the sacred commitment that we've made, and throughout our lives we've had those little inklings that I need to do something more, and our guiding spirit has directed us to be in the right places at the right times, meet the right people, so that that voice of remembrance of the divine commitment kept nudging us until we're drawn together as a body of angels who have let those clouds of forgetfulness pass—and we are here fully knowing it. I know that I know. We have come and are here together in this collective to let the Lord's work be done.
David Barnes — Deborah, Anne I experienced waves of deep emotion, deep feeling moving through my heart as you spoke and told stories. There were times where I felt the experience of those Biblical stories when one man came in contact with the angel, and was brought to his knees, bowed his head toward the ground, and was speechless before the beauty of the spirit that was present. And the word of the angel says, “Stand up. You are me on earth. You are my beloved Son. Find your voice. Speak my Word. Feel the depth of my great heart in your heart.” I love the stories that you told Deborah because they activate this great current of spirit. And Anne, I lived with you over the last seven months as you've gone through what you shared with us of your story around attunement; and the atmosphere of our whole home is changed. The pneuma-field in which I walk is transformed. Living in that attunement field, conflict is impossible. Step out of it and one is in the midst of the horror. Because you brought a presence of one who knows, there's stillness and humility, deep gratitude, a sense of oneness and love. It makes it easy to say “I love you.” And as Martin said to you Deborah, we are so blessed to be together, knowing what we know of these heavenly things on earth. Thank you both deeply.
Linda Bahan — The story that you told Deborah of Martin holding your hand, as you were relaying that I felt like I was holding your hand. There was the attunement in action. I looked around at all our faces, and I was thinking: How could I be alive without all of you in my world? and the blessing that comes from that. And as you were emphasizing Anne, it awakens us to our extraordinary responsibility. First of all to the Lord of Love; but then that extends from the first commandment to the second, that we should love one another. And the responsibility I felt today being emphasized, of the responsibility we have to each other. And I was thinking, how could this assembly of people be put together except by life? I feel like I'm at home, and I know each one of you as an angel. Thank you so much for creating this setting for us today, so we could have this heavenly experience with you.
Shirley Malin — This seems like a good point for me to follow; thank you for all your comments to this point. I'm marveling at the gentleness of the atmosphere that's you created here, something of this wonderful responsibility of the female, and female in agreement. To me this is something that the earth is longing for, because we have created so much chaos in our attempt to compete with one another, or to outsmart someone. And here we are coming together with a renewed innocence about the truth of love. I love the opening of this purification aspect in the attunement process because that is where this healing current for the body of man is going to originate. We are in this Fourth Sacred School now, and it does require the purification of the heart, so that the true spirit can come through. And as a group I think we're finding this beginning to open up. This is an attunement process for the Archangelic Body. We share in this process, and how beautiful to have these two lovely women, in a sense of innocence, forgiveness, appreciation—we find agreement in this spirit. And all those who have offered something have shared in the intensification of this process together. So I'm most grateful to be in the company of such angels. Thank you for this beautiful opportunity to share in the Temple, at this time.
Davina Misroch — I'm aware of very deep power here, and it's coming from the profound humility that I witnessed, experienced with Anne and Deborah. There's something in that current of humility, and coming up is an immense sense of power which is coming from that transcendent reality into the dimensional place in space and time through these two women, and through us collectively as we participate in it. If we witness it we are changing it or co-creating it. And I have that experience, not just observing it. But actually something is occurring here which defies description. I wish to acknowledge it, so thank you.
Suzanne Core — I too would like to acknowledge it, and to acknowledge Anne and Deborah, and what you have brought to us today, which is so precious and moving and rich. And I was thinking just now of the line in one of our hymns: The mystery of God is finished on earth; Come and behold him and her and us. Thank you for this blessed hour.
Christina Pivarnik — Hmm, it always is magnificent to come and behold Him; to have this sacred time. I love this grouping, because there's no limit to where we can go in spirit together. And Anne, as you spoke of your experience of attunement, I too have experienced that for so many years, and it's new and fresh every day, every moment. And Deborah, I've loved you for so many years, it's beautiful to share your spirit. So how blessed we are that we can come together and open our hearts in joy and worship and singing praise to that Great One, the Eternal One. I love that this is where we are right now, in this upper room that we can share these times together, and it's always available. So Zoom might end here in a little bit, but the connection and the current does not. It just continues to build and to grow and to radiate, and that is that precious substance. So I thank you both for your focus and for everyone’s substance that's contributed to this exquisite hour together.
Marsha Bogolin — It has been exquisite. Actually, it was a rich feast from both of you. Anne, I think I could talk about 25 things that you said; but the two that stand out to me right now is how much opened for you through this beginning to share attunement on a regular basis, long distance, and what that opened of new insights and thinking for you. And also the responsibility of holding that sacred space before, during and after. For me, you amplified the attunement server’s experience. Many times I've focused more on, well, what did the person who received the attunement experience? So I really appreciate that. And Deborah, your stories—both of you spoke from your own experience very genuinely, with great power and clarity—your stories, Deborah, were so intimate. I am so grateful that you shared them with us; and particularly what you shared of your time with Martin. For me that that brought vividly back that depth of intimacy of knowing that I'm sure many of us had of this Being, and our very specific connection with this Being, and what that evokes from us of what is ours to do, of being at the right place at the right time now, as the whole solar system moves into a new vibrational space, where the human distortions can no longer exist. I am so proud of you, my sisters. You make me happy to be a woman. Thank you.
Laura Fisher — Thank you, Marsha, and thank you everyone. There's something about accepting the fact that the mystery of God is finished on earth—that part is over folks. And then this knowing—there are things that I knew forever, and when I heard Uranda and Martin saying them, it was no surprise. It was just, “Oh, yes, you do know that.” And I mentioned this because I know that that kind of knowing gives us a stability and a confidence and the reality where there is no chance of failure. So life is one of the victory always; and so we don't have to mess around with fixing things up, or hoping it works. We know! It's working beautifully; and especially, for instance, because of these two beautiful women that opened and led the way today. We are all that, and we all could do that. That's why we're together now: the mystery is finished. Here we are!
Robert Merriman — Deborah and Anne, I so appreciate the space that you've brought us into here, that you've invited us into, and that you've held. The ease and the naturalness of it is something I'd really like to emphasize; and also the power. Sometimes I've thought of power as something that you strain to release power—I'm going to radiate! And it's so clear in what we're sharing in this moment that it actually comes through another way, through the heart. And I'm also reminded of the command to tarry in the upper room; and I feel we have tarried here today, thanks to what you have brought, and the willingness of all of us on the line to go there with you. This is an exquisite gift; a great treasure indeed! I am with you in this, as I hold this with you in a relaxed way in the days to come.
Deborah — I feel that veil has thinned for many of us, and it's also thickened for others. This idea of tarrying actually came up in this Bible verse, that “the knowledge of God which passeth all understanding shall keep your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ.” Our minds and hearts are kept well and clear if we stay in that sacred space. That’s not to say that we don't act; it’s not to say that we don't feel deeply, but we have “right-use-ness” in the moment where we know what and how to do and say. That would be my concluding thought. Thank you for all your kind comments, what's true of me or you is true of all. There are 7 billion angels incarnate on the planet. How do we know? We know because their eyes blink.
Anne — I'd like to read a devotion by Martin: “In the quietness and serenity of this moment we are aware, O Lord, that the truth is true, and we are aware of our individual responsibility to make known that truth in daily living, that every thought, every word, every action may be the evidence of the radiation of Thy spirit, which is known as our own. Thy spirit remains unknown to us until it is our own. Then the radiation of life, characterized by the truth of love, shines forth into the earth in creative expression, that all things may be made new and revealed as new by the reflection of that light out of the world of our environment. We are deeply thankful, O Lord, in this moment for the joy of letting this true attunement be reestablished, that the oneness of heaven and earth may once again permeate the consciousness of mankind, all to Thy glory, in the Christ. Aum-en.”
Steve Ventola — That is a great way of concluding Anne. In simple words, I would say, Let's let love radiate. Our next Temple of Light Service be on August 21st, when Jae Hyoung Lee and Dukhee Kang, our Korean friends, will be leading us in service. We look forward to that time.
Good morning everyone — On July 26th our friends Deborah Starrs from Tucson, Arizona andAnne Blaneyfrom Salmon Arm, British Columbia will focus this service time and lead us into the period of radiant response that follows.
Moving passionately in the period of recreation that these Temple services allow, in alignment with the overlighting Cosmic Cycle of Recreation, changes are coming thick and fast. These words from Martin Cecil, spoken in 1981, emphasize so clearly what is required of each of us as we blend and create together spiritually in service times, and in every moment of daily living:
“I stand at the center and the light shines all around me. Only when a person does stand at the center can the light shine all around him. Clearly if there is a center at which to stand, only in that position is there a complete circle around one. Anywhere else but at that point of center it will only be a partial extension of whatever light there is. That light grows dimmer the farther one is away from the center; so there is less light and less area possible of illumination. You can only see all around at the peak of the mountain.In our services together, I always seek to stand at the center so that the light may shine all around and there may be a balanced view, a true perspective; and the invitation is, to all concerned, also to stand at the center. After the service we have what have been called comment periods, during which most of those who speak say something of what they had seen of what I had said—each one saying in effect, “This is what I saw in what you said.” We do not really share a time together in order for this sort of approach to be taken. It may be the initial approach, but if one remains in that stance as an observer of what is being offered and then outlining one’s interpretation of it, the purpose of being together would have been lost. We are here to stand at the center together. I stand at the center, you individually stand at the center, and if we do that we are all at the center and the light shines round about. We see what should be seen and we see this in a balanced way, in true perspective.If you have something to say after a service it wouldn’t be, “Well this is what I saw in what you said.” You would say, if you are going to say anything, “This is what I say from my position at the center.” Only on that basis can there be agreement. There is no agreement in the human world because each individual sees in his own way, but if the person who is seeing on this basis doesn’t have adequate light because he is not standing at the center and he does not have a balanced view, then what he sees will be at best distorted—a very shadowy view.An invitation is constantly extended to stand at the center where one’s own light shines round about. You cannot be at the center and depend on anyone else’s light. When you are at the center there is the light shining round about and you see what is there and understand what is there, because the only position that this is possible is at the center.”
It is a profound pleasure to welcome Anne and Deborah to focus this service, and welcome all of you to join and provide a unified body, where we stand at the Center and let the Light shine all around.David Barnes

Angelic Presence In Heaven On Earth
Anthony Palombo
June 26, 2022 Lake Charles, Louisiana
Temple of Light service
David Barnes — I particularly want to welcome Jude Repar here this morning; and Leo Palombo; also Daphne Bramlett; and of course, Robin Joseph. The rest of us have been together in these Temple of Light services at various times—a monthly service opportunity that has been taking place for the past 16 months, an opportunity, not just for a few individuals to speak and share, but for each one who wants to come forth in the creative cycle and share what is currently moving in the heavens of spirit; share that with all of us, with the world, and allow a full-heart love response to return to heaven and the Lord of the Heavens.
Today we have a very good friend, Tony Palombo, who's given his whole life to music and sound and poetry and lyrics, to spiritual expression and leadership at all levels of life and artistry, sharing in communion, and sharing in particular his love response to the LORD of Lords. Tony, it's such a delight to have you here, and I know that you will present yourself, so I really don't have to say very much—but a fine introduction to you would be to play a song, lyrics and music, that you wrote, with you singing this song of joy and thanksgiving. So here it is:
The Earth Is The Lord’s
The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof,
The world and they that dwell therein
I come in the midst of Heaven to bless the fullness thereof.
I stand in midst of the Earth and welcome the fullness thereof.
The Earth is the Lord’s and the Fullness thereof.
Behold, I come in the sea and put my hand on the tides thereof.
And, lo, I come in the wind and put my hand on the currents thereof.
The Earth is the Lord’s and the rhythms thereof.
Behold I come in the Earth and put my hand on the Seasons thereof.
And, lo, I come in the Sun and put my hand on the Fire thereof.
The Earth is the Lord’s and the Seasons thereof.
I come in the towering mountains, I come in the rolling hills,
I come in the blue-green forests, I come in the sweet daffodil.
The Earth is the Lord’s and the beauty thereof.
I mount the sky on wings of eagles,
I run on hooves through the boundless plains.
I plunge the deep in whales of the ocean
I nourish my own in the fields of grain.
The Earth is the Lord’s and the kingdoms thereof.
Who will stand with me in the midst of the fullness thereof?
And put a hand of care on the boundaries of the fullness thereof?
The Earth is the Lord’s and the boundaries thereof.
Behold, I’ll come to thee and put my fire in the heart thereof
And, lo, I’ll come through thee and give my love to the fullness thereof.
The Earth is the Lord’s and the Power thereof.
Behold, I’ll come to thee and put my thoughts on the wheel thereof.
And, lo, I’ll come through thee and shed my Light on the fullness thereof.
The Earth is the Lord’s and the Wisdom thereof.
And, yes! I’ll come to thee and put my breath in the flesh thereof.
And, yes! I’ll come through thee and share my Life with the fullness thereof.
The Earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof.
Who will stand with me and welcome the fullness thereof
And who will dwell with me in the heaven of the fullness thereof?
The Earth is the Lord’s and the heaven thereof.
Come and share with me in blessing with the Spirit of Love
The world and they that dwell in the Earth, and the fullness thereof.
The Earth is the Lord’s and the People thereof.
The Earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof
The world and they that dwell therein.
The Earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof.

Anthony — Thank you David. That song touches me deeply. It was written in a time when I was coming forth in my awareness of my angelic presence in the world, and was quite a moment in my life. I appreciate you playing it this morning. I'd like to preface my offering by saying I'm privileged to be with you, and I appreciate the invitation to focus the consideration of Angelic Presence in Heaven—and it is a privilege to be with so many angelic colleagues. I feel honored and privileged to be amongst you this morning.
When I was attending a music conference back along the way at Sunrise Ranch, at the end of the conference Martin Cecil give a prayer; and I loved the prayer so much that I put it to music. I wrote a hymn, and it was sung once in the Dome Chapel; and also I heard it played on an organ in Baton Rouge when PenDell Pittman came down to do a concert. It's never been sung by a large choir, but the words are very beautiful and I like to offer them as an opening devotion: “In the stillness of our yielded hearts, O Lord, we come before Thee in humility. We tremble in Thy presence, aware of Thy majesty, of Thy power, of Thine Almighty love. Holy, holy, holy Lord God of Hosts. Thy Hosts arise on earth to let Thy tone resound again, to speak Thy Word in all the hearts of men in every land. Behold, I make all things new. Aumen.”
PenDell Pittman — (with overtone chanting) O heart of God, I come to Thee, in Thy fullness of beauty, Thy wisdom and peace, grace, kingdom and power and glory. O heart of God. I come to Thee. O Heart of God, I come to Thee, to Thee.

Anthony — Very beautiful PenDell; thank you for the beautiful overtone chant. So with that we open the door to consider together our presence in heaven as angels. I've been aware of my own angelic presence very acutely, in the last two years particularly—aware of my body being my servant, or my vehicle, very keenly aware of that. I'm sure you have as well. We are more vividly aware that we dwell in an invisible realm, but we very much observe the visible realm where our bodies move about, or we move them about in care of our world and in service to the One.
I've been particularly focused in the word “creation” for the last several bloggings that I've done. I don't know how many of you read my Blog, Healing Tones [healingtones.org/2022/04/] but I do Blog quite a bit every week; and “creation” has been a topic that I have been very keenly interested in. I've done a lot of reading of various scientific papers, particularly in the realm of quantum physics. So I'm going to offer a perspective and see what you might think of it; and you might have something to say as I open this particular consideration.
There is a phenomenon in the world of quantum physics or the quantum world—I like to think of the quantum world as being the invisible realm of heaven, where preform is present, awaiting to be given form. It takes me back to the Book of Genesis where God created man on the sixth day in Chapter One. And then He created all of creation; and that was, as Uranda put it, in the realm of preform, before it became form. And in the Second Chapter He creates Man from the dust of the ground, and He does so as a means to let what is invisible, the preform in the heaven which he had already created—which we had already created actually with Him, so that what was in the heaven could be given form on earth. And that was the reason, as Uranda presents it in the paper, [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/2020/05/the-vibrational-sphere-from-man-with.html] for creating Man: to bring forth creation. It very specifically says in the Book of Genesis that these things were in existence before they were in the earth. You get the point here, I think: that there was something created before it was actually given form, and we came on the scene to bring it into form.
Now, in the realm of quantum physics there is a phenomenon, as I started to say earlier, that when a wave of light is observed, in whatever fashion: it could be taken a picture of, or it could be thought of in the mind of the experimenter. It doesn't matter how it is observed or considered. The wave turns into a particle, so that it has become known as a fact that light is both wave and particle. But I think the most interesting part of this experiment is that it becomes a particle only when it is observed—before that it is a wave. It's in a preform, or in a “realm of infinite possibilities”, as Deepak Chopra says. So we have a part to play in materializing the immaterial, a very specific role, and we've been doing it. We've been doing that, not even being aware of the fact we've been doing that. The more you give something your attention, the more it begins to increase and develop. You begin to add particles to it, because you are observing it, and it's only in our own consciousness that we actually have a world at all. Otherwise it's an illusion out there. I mean, “Is it real?” It's only real because it's in our consciousness, but we created it in our consciousness. Now, we know these things. Martin used to speak of “recreation in consciousness” back along the way. [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/2022/06/the-vibrational-matrix.html] We recreate in our consciousness the image that we might have a of a person or some situation.
We are concerned, I'm sure, with our function in the heaven being to receive what is coming down from God out of His heaven into our consciousness, into the heaven of this particular world. Our responsibility is in this heaven. How do these patterns of the new earth come out of the new heaven into our consciousness? In what form? Well, I think they come in the form of our thoughts, in meditation; they come as a whole, not imperfect, but perfect. It my work with attunements over the years, I've taken note of the fact that while I'm sharing attunement with a physical body—I have been taught to do this and I do it quite naturally—I consider the part that I'm offering an attunement to, the person, or the particular organ, or whatever I may be working with, as already whole and complete, not fixed, not partial, not non-functional. I consider it as totally functional, healthy and whole. That's the image that I am receiving out of the heaven for this person, for this person's physical body. Then what I am offering is attunement to wholeness. “Wilt thou be made whole?” I don't think Jesus said, “Well, what's your problem? Maybe I can fix it.” No. “Would you be made whole?” And when He asked, I don't know what the answer might have been, but apparently it was, “Yes, I would love to be made whole.” So that was His approach, to offer wholeness in His healing work. So I think these images of the new earth come into our consciousness out of the new heaven in this way—a vision of wholeness.
In my song I mentioned “the boundaries”. It was peculiar that that particular word came up when I was writing the song. It just came up: our care of the boundaries. I have seen the boundaries. I have seen the boundary where wave becomes particle. In my seminar attendance this has been brought out in videos, where actually you can see particles jumping out of an invisible realm into a visible realm. It's almost as though there's an exchange between these two realms. Cynthia Bourgeault has something very beautiful to say about these two realms. They interact with one another; they dance together. The invisible and the visible realms dynamically work with each other on the same image. I don't know if you've ever read any of Cynthia Bourgeault's books, but her book The Meaning of Mary Magdalene is just phenomenal; and if you have an opportunity to read it, it’s really beautiful. She has an ability to see into this imaginal realm, and to understand the imaginal realm.
There is an imaginal realm. It's the heart actually, where the images that come down in a preform from the heaven find a place in our hearts, in human hearts, to begin to be received, and then to begin to be paid attention to, so that in doing so these images actually particalize and become more material. It's our function as creators to create form at this level of creation. So as angels, we play this role in this imaginal realm. Not imagination. That's a different thing. It's the imaginal where images appear, waiting to be given form. This interests me a whole lot—it really does. I'm quite fascinated by this whole realm. And I think that the realm of quantum physics gives evidence of the fact that the human mind has come back into heaven. Lucifer. There are many evidences in my reading, where I see brilliant insight into the invisible realm; and I do feel very surely that not only have our minds come into heaven, but I think the mind of man is becoming more connected upward. There are many who are expressing heavenly perspective, as you know. So I'm very encouraged and happy about that.
But I know that my own mind has been privileged to be welcomed back into heaven. That's Lucifer, as you know of course. [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/2021/06/lucifer-transparent-mind.html] So that's where I am in my journey, as an incarnate angel right now, and I continue to pursue this realm of creation, not just as an individual but with others. And this is why I'm glad to be with you today, because we provide a larger lens, a collective lens, where we each have a part to contribute. And through this larger lens, this collective lens we can see more together of what is trying to come down into the earth to create a new earth out of the new heaven. So that's the nuts and bolts of my consideration today. I have no more to say at this moment, so if any of you would like to say something you're welcome.

Steve Ventola — Tony, you allude to the fact that our hearts need to be pure in order to receive the sensing of that wave, and when our hearts are pure, then we can have a true sensing. And what we've been made aware of, of the things of heaven, we were privileged to have that oversight. I like how you paused to allow for a configuration to be received into your consciousness; and I think all of us need to do the same, positioning our hearts upward, in a letting go of what's been causing tainted images; to actually allow for something to be received that is pure from heaven, from our pure hearts. And that takes some work.
PenDell Pittman — In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth in His/Her image and likeness. That's a scientific statement; His imaginal realm; His capacity of consciousness; and likeness in form, and in the heavenly form, heaven and earth are one. That is a pure image, like Steve was talking about. Human consciousness is a divine gift. And my experiences can be underrated, in a right sense; and overrated, not the sense that I sense is divine. And I respect and protect my own consciousness, and your consciousness, 24/7. What is coming out of that is that the likeness of God, that I'm showing, is the imaginal realm that we all have been gifted with, if we but use it. I'm talking myself. Do I use it? What is my heart and mind thinking and feeling? Is it in accord? I think it is. It is in accord with many other people. We all don't know each other; there's billions of people here. Somebody is thinking what I'm thinking in this moment. What am I thinking? We call it the eye of the beholder. Tony alluded to that: Be-holder. I like that word. Be “holding” something. What am I holding? What person am I holding that I'm paying attention to? What am I doing, which is holding a spirit for the form of God to come into heaven on earth. That's ascension for me.
Anthony — Thank you. So I want to say something about my experience with music back along the way. Back in the seventies I got the inspiration to write a book about using sound in attunement. I was very excited about the possibility that the “tone” that we always heard Martin talk about, that this tone actually has a musical aspect to it; and our instruments, our so-called “harps”, are musical instruments, and they have various tones going on in them. So I did the research and I wrote the book. At the very same time that I was greatly inspired to do this, one person in Boulder, Colorado—Jonathan Goldman—began to develop his seminars in sacred sound. Now this was at the same time I was thinking about doing something with sound and attunement—in the very year. And I had a vision of what was possible, but here was somebody who was implementing what I was seeing. Alright. Now, anytime I may have a vision, that doesn't mean I have to get busy and do something about it. I'm a part of a larger body; and as Martin said in a recent service that David posted, the body is not all head. My body has a head, but it has parts; there's toes and feet and arms and all that. So there are many aspects to the body of God on earth—mankind—and only a few can fit up in the cranium. Anyway, some of us have the ability to think; I guess you could say right thinking, and then others have the immediate ability to do right action, do things. I couldn’t even afford to do what Jonathan Goldman did, and has been doing all these years. I took a couple of his workshops and I was quite impressed. So my point is that we play a part in a much larger context. Just like when you were sounding those overtones PenDell, the vibration of my voice right now is setting off tones that you can’t even hear. Your voice creates overtones. You don’t have to understand how PenDell does it, to do that. Any sound you make has overtones. It also has undertones, okay. So sound goes in all directions; not just horizontally to the ears of people. The sound goes spherically out, okay. So you have overtones and undertones. Well, there are vibrations set in motion by what we do and say that we don't even see.
Laura Fisher — Tony, we've been together in many ways, and here we are again. I love the comment about, we are part of a larger reality, a larger imagination. Jonathan Goldman, the man you mentioned, brought at least a 100 people to Sunrise every year for at least 20 years and did his very fine work there. The income from Jonathan's retreat kept us afloat for many months. So, a wonderful thank you for what you started in Jonathan Goldman; and thank him. This is absolute proof of what we're talking about. The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof and that earth lives in every one of us, and the fullness thereof. Those of us who know the divine technology can open to imagine a new world and let that manifest. And I know this is happening. The fullness thereof, is coming home again. So I thank you for what you are doing and saying.
Anthony — I have a thing where we go around town after a hurricane and we notice certain things in town that need to be dealt with, that haven't been dealt with for two years now, and still there are buildings that need to be taken down or repaired; or fields that need to be cut because they're overgrown. We say, “That needs to be taken care of.” We agree, and next day so it's been taken care of. Now there are those who say, “Well, you would just tap into the mass consciousness and somebody was thinking about doing that, and you picked up on the idea.” Maybe. Nevertheless two in agreement, right! I know that this is the way it happens. Okay. Just Across the street we had a field that was overgrown. and we said, “It needs to be cut.” The next day somebody is cutting it? We agree! So anyway, Laura, I really appreciate that.
Gary Courtland Miles — It's such a delightful thing, Tony; and if we want to check our vibration, if we're not delighted, we're not in the experience. And it’s just a sheer delight to share with you, and to see you, and to hear you, hear your music and your tone. Thank you for being with us today. I love you, man.
David Barnes — Tony, I think what we're experiencing with you this morning is in a very subtle way the acknowledgement of the opening of a portal. I remember two or three months ago, considering with Robert and Steve and Terry and Carol and Anne what might occur in this late June Temple of Light Service. It was felt that there is an opening and an opportunity for something significant to occur. Week after week it was unknown; it was in that yet unimagined realm, that spacious place of stillness and emptiness. And the requirement was to sit serenely, relative to the opportunity we are sharing this morning. Life and heaven were filled with opportunities in other ranges of activity but here was one field where we could feel the urging of the spirit to bring a clear idea into the consciousness of the group responsible for bringing forth this event today. And then suddenly, connecting with what you had been sharing through your website, Healing Tones, [healingtones.org/2022/02/] and what others of us had been sharing, something began to come clearly into mind—Lucifer was able to receive because we'd been sharing in similar ranges to what you were writing about, related to the awareness that love substance fills the universe, this fire of plasma being which is looking for a means of transmission through human consciousness, through heart and mind, through speech, through action. And it became apparent that we should invite you to be with us and initiate some thinking along this these lines, about the fiery plasma nature of the angelic and Archangelic body which fills the earth already and is calling for transformation, so that each and all can move in accord with this high vibration of light becoming literal light in human form, angels incarnate as we live and serve together. So something was opened here, that we're going to find opening more expansively through all of us; but also in the broad world of human attunement with God, which will open it up out there even as it opens up here in the realms spirit for which we are responsible. I feel so grateful for this work in birthing something new, as it was evident to us over the last few months; and now through this portal that has been opened through our sharing together here we prepare the way and Behold—we hold in the womb what it is that will be birthed through us and through others. And we'll come back again in the future and touch it again on the spiral above, and it will be richer and clearer, and it will offer another portal at that point, a portal opening for blessing, as you have shared and blessed us all, and we together with you let the blessing extend naturally beyond us.
Alice Penwell — Tony, this is Alice. Hi. I want to mention two examples. The overarching of purity of heart is quite a focus. I'm an artist and I've been really concentrating on life drawing which is of the body, and being with artists and finding out what they love, and what initially stimulated them to go into art. And people say they are so interested in just showing the color and movement with just a little bit of recognizable form. It's coming out of their hearts, that that is what they need to describe. My experience is that the way people talk about what's going on in the world, with some I can listen deeply, and there is the overall tonal quality of letting me listen to what they're saying. There are others where their love is coming through more strongly. Then the hate with others is like really dissonant music, and I cannot listen in the same way. It takes a lot of work to listen and to hear that. I find even in myself too, the range of where I can fully let the music come in and rhythmically let me express what I'm trying to express. And lastly, I would just say that last night a Latino band played all night and there was a frustration—people needed to go to work; and not all enjoyed that going on all night. But the focus of my nightly prayer was: let me stay with the Christ. Thank you.
Robert Merriman — Tony, I'm so glad you're here, and it's so wonderful to be with you today; it's been a long time. You touched on physics earlier, and I was thinking about the thing that we humans experience as time relative to what you were saying about the imaginal realm. Yesterday I wrote a response to a service that I read and received an answer back which developed into something very creative. But I had this experience when I wrote it. For the first time it was like I didn't write it. I read it. I read that response, and it happened to end up on the word processor in front of me because what came out was something very different than what I started with. And I got a little ways and I said, “Oh, that actually goes like this instead, and it was like I saw what it was as I opened my heart further to it. And I feel like yesterday I was experiencing where you took us to today. So was I with you as you were preparing for the service or was I already here at this point in time? In the Lord all those separations disappear and we're just here and now, it's for forever, and it's wonderful, and you bring this to remembrance so beautifully for me. Thank you. I love you man.
Deborah Starrs — Tony, a phrase keeps going through my head, that eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor has it entered into the mind of man what the Lord has in store for those who love and serve Him. I think we're now beginning to see and hear and have newness emerging into our minds; and we see that also coming forth through the mind of man. Unthinkable things are now thinkable, and the divine technology is at our fingertips. And I think there's a great humility in exercising what we understand of it at this point, so that the unfoldment of the greater works may take place—these things shall you do, He said, and greater. So there is an exhilaration that kind of zings in with that; but I'm also reminded that in sorrow not dejected and in joy not overjoyed, because this is really our birthright, and our responsibility to steward these things in a right and practical way also. So it's terrific to connect with you again in this way, and I look forward to more connection in the future. Thank you.
Pamela Gray — Tony, I would love to offer my voice of thanksgiving this morning, for your spirit and your Word made flesh, made music, made sound and vibration, and it goes forth because it's one voice that we all share together. Robert, you made the comment that it's been a long time, and in a sense it has. There's been a sleepiness that had occurred over the body for a period of time. But when you think of the overall picture, okay there's a body that's awake right now, and the time is now, and it's just the right time to be alive and to be full of the spirit that says, “Yes, the earth is the Lord’s, and it is going to be restored now.” It is going to be returned now to His Body, His great big beautiful Body of such differentiations. As everyone was speaking I was cherishing the differentiated spirit that comes forth to His Body, because we're in place now and wherever we are in the world we're doing the work. And the yoke is easy and the burden is light, because His spirit is divine light.
Robert Kauffman — Tony, I want to say something about what this service hour has meant to me. Years ago I went to a Zoo one afternoon and I happened to be amongst a crowd that watched a little form be born right in front of us; and after it dropped on the ground it stretched, it sniffed its body, his mother licked it, then she walked away. And then it started walking around and this image of newness was absolutely startling and stunning. And it just took it in stride; this is neat, let's go check this out, another animal. There must have been 100 people watching this, absolutely transfixed. That's the feeling I get today. We are all discovering a new to be ourselves. And thank you for bringing that spirit. You opened something up.
Christina Pivarnik — Tony, I love being with you this morning. For me this has been a beautiful hour of prayer. We've had some preconceived ideas of what prayer might be. In religious terms it's always been an asking for something. But we all know differently than that. Prayer is an opportunity for blessing. You made comment of attunement earlier, and I always feel that that is prayer, that prayer of wholeness that you spoke of. And I live my life in a spirit of prayer. In all that I do there is this beautiful prayer going on, of blessing and encompassment and love, of whatever is happening in the moment. And this moment has been just precious. So thank you so much for your focus for it.
Anthony — I have been very aware that the way I see the world, how I translate what I see in the world, is very important because in that moment that I'm observing the world, I'm also creating the world based on how I translate what I see. I'm thinking of the particular gift that Uranda gave us of Attunement. That is an amazing technology of love: to be able to actually bring someone into my consciousness, between my hands, and offer them the opportunity to experience love, to experience healing. So if I look out at the world and I complain about it, or condemn it, or I think it's bad, or even good, I'm actually making a judgment on it, and fixing it where it is, not allowing it to evolve and to be made new. That really impressed itself upon me in the service of Attunement. I don't offer attunement to a tumor. Why would I want to increase the life of a tumor? Why would I want to increase sickness in someone by thinking of them as being sick—seeing them, observing them, and judging them as being sick. What I project in my translation of what I'm seeing: for example, disease is a part of the healing process, and death is the final resolution of disease, if the body is dying of an illness. What I mean is, the way we see things, the way we translate what we see is a moment of re-creation. Maybe I'm preaching to the choir here, but this is the way I've been seeing things. For example, Ukraine, or what's happening right now with the Supreme Court. How do we see these things? Are they good or bad? Well, that’s not for me to say is it? They are what they are, and they'll keep moving if I don't fix them in my consciousness as being a certain way. If I offer them love. Love is a transforming power, right? So anyway, attunement is an amazing technology of love. I'm just so delighted that we have that from Uranda. So it's been a beautiful hour.
Steve Ventola — Tony, it's been great to be with you and the thought of allowing something new to transpire during our June service is happening; and it's happening as long as we release any judgments of forms of how we think things should be. Fire—we feel the fire of the cleansing of our hearts so the new can be received. And as you were speaking I came up with phrase. Uranda talked about, Behold, I create! Behold, as I observe, I create. We can observe from heaven. As we've all been made aware of, we are—if we use the words in a new way—we are the Priesthood here on earth, and the priesthood has a holy place, a Holy of Holies and an outer court. That outer court stands out in terms of the encampment for the whole body of mankind. But we need to acknowledge the place we fill as the Priesthood here in the earth. If it wasn't for us receiving purely from our hearts from heaven the world wouldn't have a connection point. Our connection point is vital, and it is vital to acknowledged that. There's been a sleepiness in the Body because of that connection not being seen and not acknowledged. That's why we've had a division, a schism, as sleepiness, from the time that we've been trained for, way back when. Imagine if we've continued in a focus of spirit on earth providing our place where we would be. I think we'd be further along. But we're picking the pieces back up and we need to acknowledge that. The work is light as we allow it to be received. But I feel there is a burning that happens. I know this is burning inside of me, a fire of letting old things go, and at times it's very uncomfortable. Let's feel the uncomfort of that but at this same time. let's embrace the tree of life—not just trying not to do good or evil, but embrace the tree of life, giving into life of what's needed here and now. Now, as I feel the fire, maybe I would call out who would like to close our time with a devotion. I’d like to open that up for anyone who feels compelled accordingly.
Anthony — Steve, I was wondering if I could offer an Aramaic prayer in the tongue that Jesus spoke, that opens the way forward; the forward movement of our particular grouping, clearing the way, clearing the path of things that would hold us back. That's the purpose of this particular Lord's Prayer. Would that be a fitting thing? I've done it before, but not with this group. It is a sound-based language. The words go out to accomplish what they are meant to, and it is a sound-based language. It is not a meaning-based language. So can I close with that? Would that be fitting?

Steve Ventola — Wonderful Tony. Great way to close. Thank you everyone. Our next Temple of Light Service will be with Anne Blaney on July 24th. We look forward to that time. And let’s hold this vibration, remembering that as we observe we create, and let’s create heaven here on earth. Now Robert has some music.
