March 31, 2024 Easter Sunday
Temple of Light Service
Steve Ventola — Welcome everyone. Today is very special. We have two men representing our KING, here to speak the Word and sound the Tone that we may all harmonize together, as One Body in this resurrection experience today, on Easter Sunday celebrated in our world. Stewart will begin our time and David will follow.
Stewart Berger — Well, it's a real pleasure to be able to speak with you today. I too am looking forward to what David will say and what all of you will say if you feel so inspired—if there are any thoughts that are brought up by what we offer today. Robert, I'd like to thank you for playing the music; and Gary, I recognized at least two of your pieces, from our very own Gary Courtland-Miles! One was called “Love is Forever”—very beautiful.
It is very special to be together on Easter Sunday to consider the resurrection of Jesus and the process of resurrection, transformation, transmutation: these are words we've heard and talked about before. It was quite an experience of Jesus having the victory over death and by reason of what He moved through, making possible this opportunity that we find ourselves in now, to find our true identity, our union with God and to reveal that, to manifest that in all our ways.
Thinking about the resurrection also brought another image to mind, not quite connected, but connected at a very rudimentary level of our experience, and that is the matter of our daily sleeping and waking. If you're like me, whenever you go to sleep you can't help it. You get tired and fall asleep, and we lose consciousness, and then almost magically in the morning we wake up and we feel rested. Isn't it wonderful, the processes of our body, its cells and all that is involved, how they restore us and we're refreshed; although most mornings I enjoy a cup of coffee to help the brain wake up a little more; if you're like me that seems to help. But I think there's a connecting law in nature regarding this restoration process. It's wonderful how so many of these laws are natural.
I've really been enjoying our recent services, and in preparing for what I was going to say, I could've drawn from the words of so many of you who have spoken. I've been finding that the last half year to a year has been a time of increasing excitement for me. I don't think it's just because I'm paying more attention to what you're saying and what we're sharing, but it seems to me that there is an extra level or dimension of vibrancy and life that you and we are allowing to be brought forth, and it's the love for the LORD that is at the heart of that. I'm going to read some words that Jesus spoke that relate to that in a short while, but I have this image of a web of connection, surrounding the earth or our human and earthly experience. The web of connection that we share is above this human activity, protective in a way, but there's a very solid fine mesh there. So I am thankful for the connection now, and that we share even when we're not in a service time such as this. You could say it's evidence of greater union between us and consequently the opportunity for greater unified radiation. Martin spoke about this in 1981 in “The Mind That Was in Christ Jesus” [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/from-mind-that-was-in-christ-jesus.html]
“Unified radiation relates to what is experienced in an outward direction. The human mind and heart of all those who are participating in the accommodation of the expression of the spirit of God, of the Word, find themselves associated in that expression. Unified in the radiation, there is an increasing perspective of wholeness and awareness that this which is finding expression of the Word is doing so on the basis of a unified whole. As these various stages consequent upon response of heart and mind are experienced, the nature of the form of one's response changes. It is the response of the heart and mind which should never stop responding, but the experience is different because there is more and more of the Word in expression being accommodated by the heart and mind. As there is movement through these creative stages, attraction, union, unified radiation—what happens at each stage is not left behind but is rather amplified by subsequent changes.”
So that hit me where I live, and it's relevant to what I've been experiencing with you in these services. It's as if the crossover point where we find our being and which we share is expanded and has greater dimension: it's quite an exciting thing! One of the things that we have found ourselves doing, and continue to do, is see opportunities where we can help people awaken. Many are already awake to the truth of who they are and their purpose; many are on the path; and yet others are only just beginning to awaken to who they are, and wanting to find out more about that, to make meaning of their lives. Sometimes it requires only a light touch to assist someone.
In this way, I recently had an interesting experience. I get a lot of my exercise by jogging and as I was going to the path where I jog, I had to walk through an underpass, and parked there was a vehicle, blocking one of the two traffic lanes. It was kind of dark in the underpass, so if another driver wasn't paying attention, they could've easily hit this vehicle that was blocking one full lane. So I drew closer to see what was going on and if they needed help. I could see into the driver's window, and it looked like the male driver was either asleep or perhaps taking drugs, so I walked around to the passenger side. There was a woman in there and she appeared to be asleep as well, so I cleared my throat to see if that would wake anybody up. It didn't. So I said “Hello” or “Hey”, and finally the man stirred; at least they were alive. I knew it would be up to them to move out of the lane so as not to impede traffic, so I felt my job there was done, and I went on my way to go jogging. Sometimes that's all it takes, just saying something simple like that to somebody and then letting them decide how best to carry on from there.
There's something else I'd like to mention in particular. I've written a few notes rather than just talking off the cuff, which is fun to do, but there are some specific things I want to mention. As some of you know I work doing news on the radio. I report, write, prepare and then read it on a Los Angeles radio station. It's a good job and it certainly keeps me in touch with what's going on in the world and with people around the world. Sometimes there are very sad things to report; I'm sure that you're aware that some people in the world have been acting in crazy ways and I have a feeling this is going to increase. I think it's evidence of the increasing dissolution of human structures that various people might find themselves involved in. At any rate, in preparing for the service one thing that helped me was something mentioned in a Temple service given in January by Jae Hyoung Lee and Duk Hee Kang in South Korea. Jae Hyoung said that after a meeting, somebody had asked, “Is there hope for humanity?” And of course a number of people are asking this all over the world. Jae Hyoung said there is hope for humanity because of various individuals, groups and schools. “As long as we are in our place and doing our part, I think this world is safe. And as long as the Lord can be in this world through us, and as long as the Lord is in this world, this world is safe. Long ago, the Lord Jesus had to do it all alone. Most of the disciples weren't with him, but now we are here, for the glory of the Lord.”
We are here, and it's up to us. Relative to the question of whether there is hope for humanity, various ones have at times felt fear. But I remember the words spoken by Moses during the episode at the Red Sea, chased by the pharaoh and his gang: Fear not! “Fear not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord.” We have much strength, individually and together, and that provides a foundation.
There have been a few polls out recently about the U.S. election which is coming up this November; maybe you've read about them. There is a clear majority in the U.S. who answered the poll saying they do not want the matchup of the two current front-runners for president, a clear majority on both sides. So there's tension because of this. One poll asked people to talk about the words that came up when they think about the upcoming election, and one of the top words was “dread”.
I'm glad, Yujin, that you're part of our grouping today, because I was looking on David's wonderful website “The Great Cosmic Story” and I happened on one of your services Yujin, that you gave just before the presidential election in November 2020. Yujin said at that time, “As all of you are probably conscious of, the world is increasingly step by step entering cycles of greater pressure.” He said individuals were as well, and he mentioned the pandemic that was going on at that time. “Most of you may be aware also that Tuesday is election day in the United States, and there is tremendous pressure building because of it. This presidential election in the United States is probably an election with the greatest tension in US history. A poll in the United States indicated that just under 50% of people were feeling very angry or enraged for different reasons. The extent of depression and symptoms of mental illness and sleeplessness has grown tremendously as well.” So here we are, four years later, pretty much in the same place.
One of the things that has been moving with me that I wanted to talk about, is the matter of heavenly government and earthly government. There was a great service of Martin's where he was talking about the ordinances of heaven and the ordinances of earth; how so many people are really caught up in what's going on in the earth but the control is really in heaven, through heaven and through us. There were some other things Martin said about this, and I'd like to read just a few lines from a couple of different services. In one he said: “The Priesthood, in the true state, constitute what may be called government. The government of God on earth is extended through the Priesthood.” In another service he said: “We were considering the matter of ministers last Sunday. By the way, ministers is rather a good word because it doesn't confine the experience to what is deemed to be spiritual. Generally speaking it's called religious. There are ministers of religion, but there are also ministers of government.”
So the job is to minister. We've been doing that; you've been doing it, as have I. It also made me think of various ones of you whom I wish I knew better, and I'm getting to know you better as we share our times, but I know for instance that Steve is an expert regarding health, issues related to that. I know others of you have expertise in different fields so perhaps you could call yourself a minister in these different areas, as we all could, for what our particular talents are, and where we feel our purpose lies.
Another thought is that though the people in the world are very caught up in worldly events, the world finally needs to make a choice as to whether they will remain insistent on that stuck state or find release, a sweet release, through knowing from whence the source of life really comes—God: Father God and Mother God; the Divine masculine and the Divine feminine which we each embody.
Relative to the stuck state, I thought I'd mention that over the last half year especially, I've enjoyed, if you can believe it, going on X, which used to be called “Twitter”, and posting about different candidates for president whom I thought might be the best ones, since it's such a big issue here in the U.S., and I was pleased to find out that there are some, perhaps many, people whom I conversed with on that social media platform who are open to a better experience politically, a new experience certainly, and yet there are others who are very insistent, it seemed to me, in continuing in the way we've been going and not having any ability to find flexibility, in some cases even to consider the idea of something new. There is that level of humanity that wants to keep going along in the same thing, and yet we know it hasn't worked. We still have so many issues in the world, and this is one way to see the evidence of it.
There are various issues that are dealt with, or the attempt is there to deal with these events, through government. Climate change is one. I don't mean to make this political or get into too many specifics; that's not my goal. My goal is to allow for the greatest generation of substance that we can experience and offer out in blessing in this time. But it's also helpful to talk about some specifics. Just briefly about climate change: there are various, I was going to say theories, but ways of looking at the causes of that. However, I read in the news just recently that this last winter that we had in the U.S. was apparently the warmest winter ever on record here, and last year the world had its warmest year on record. So you can take that as you will. And of course there are other issues; one that I look at closely is the U.S. national debt, and others are concerned about that as well—spending more than we have. How is that dealt with? So there are these things to be dealt with, but at what level, and who's going to do it? It must be people who are not motivated by wanting to get something but someone, some people, who know the truth of who they are, who serve the Lord of Love, Truth and Life, and are insistent on letting the clearest possible tone of that come through them in each moment, in everything they, we do in small and large ways.
So on this Easter Sunday it's wonderful to be with you, providing the place from which this strong and clear blessing may move out through us into the world, to touch whomever is open to receive it; to know that life is possible now and in all the days to come. I'd like to close with some words spoken by Jesus, spoken just before the events that would lead to his crucifixion and resurrection. Much is made by some about the crucifixion, but when I read these words they really spoke to me. Last Sunday, John Gray spoke about the magic word “Abracadabra!” I felt that there is magic in what Jesus said in these words, although it was a sad time in that He would no longer be in the world then, and yet I think the magic was in His love for the Father. We may each know that personal connection and allow it to enliven our beings—our first love. It was great to see a few days ago on Facebook that Tony Palombo had posted a piece with a service by Uranda centering on these words from the Book of John, Chapter 17. Here are some parts of that, with Jesus speaking to the Father:
“I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word. Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee. For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.
“I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.
“While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition. And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves. I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world. And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.
“Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
“Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world. O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me. And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.”
David, over to you
David Barnes — Thank you Stewart. Your final reading is a wonderful starting point for this next phase of our time together. You mentioned many important facets of daily life and public affairs that can be given attention in the days to come, in services and in other kinds of gatherings, where the focus of spirit that each one of us carries as sons and daughters of God on earth can examine and penetrate the imprisoned predicament that humanity has imposed upon itself, and through such examination extend in radiance a spirit which carries with it an invitation to come into the place of freedom, and love and life and joy in the New Heaven and the New Earth that is now very much evident, for those who have the substance to see and know that this is so.
I loved a reference by Martin that I put in the Great Cosmic Story this morning, where he emphasized that we are coming out of the religious conditioning that surrounds Easter commemorations, and moving into a new spiritual time that imbues such meditations with life and vitality, through the presence of the sons and daughters of God right here right now—we who have awakened—and thus everything is brought into the present moment of resurrection and possibility. So we remove the grave clothes, fold them carefully and leave them in the darkened place, and move out into the Garden experience that is available to everybody.
I want to welcome Yujin Pak, having come from Korea for a few months, and is here in the service with us today. A warm welcome to you Yujin; and we are looking forward to being with you and hearing you share something with us in a specially scheduled Temple of Light service on April 14th.
And John, I want to mention that I spent a lot of time with the service you delivered recently. I actually transcribed it before it came out because I wanted to go right to the kernel of what it was that you brought; remove the shell, one might say—the shell which is beautiful in itself—but inside there is a ripened kernel that was very useful to me in my meditations, and radiation through them throughout these past several days.
John Gray gave a very basic outline of the beauty of the emerging Christ Body. When we say Christ Body we mean particular qualities of spirit that are being expressed through human beings, God Beings in human form. These are human forms that God Beings created for the specific purposes of each angelic being who is a part of the Archangelic Host in heaven, and now emerging into form as human beings—the vehicle through which the Divine Being can express and bring the government of the spirit into the world. And there is so much more to fill out, as we go along together, of that beautiful kernel of blueprint that is present in what John offered.
I want to read a few verses from a poem by Walt Whitman titled, “To Him That Was Crucified”. I'm not too wrapped up in the crucifixion story at Easter, nor was I at any Easter season in the past. But I am very interested in what occurred at that time, where a seed was sown, and over time brought forth this kernel that was suggested. So what John had to say suggested that when the seed was taken out of its shell and planted in the Garden it would grow and develop and become something quite different than the original seed itself. And it would be evidence of the presence and purpose which brought together the creative forces that allowed the seed to take formation in the first place. And now we are aware that is ours to tend and keep that Garden, the atmosphere of the Garden, and let the planting flourish under our hand. Here is what Walt Whitman had to say about 150 years ago in a poem that was sent to Him who was crucified. So here is a direct message from this man, this transcendental poet of the 19th century. He says, “My spirit to yours dear brother” …
My spirit to yours dear brother
Do not mind because many sounding your name do not understand you,
I do not sound your name, but I understand you,
I specify you with joy O my comrade to salute you, and to salute those who are with you, before and since, and those to come also,
That we all labor together transmitting the same charge and succession …
We walk silent among disputes and assertions, but reject not the disputers nor any thing that is asserted,
We hear the bawling and din, we are reach'd at by divisions, jealousies, recriminations on every side,
They close peremptorily upon us to surround us, my comrade,
Yet we walk unheld, free, the whole earth over, journeying up and down
till we make our ineffaceable mark upon time and the diverse eras,
Till we saturate time and eras, that the men and women of races, ages to come, may prove brethren and lovers as we are.
Here is the voice of one speaking to an intimate spiritual comrade, a friend who was as immediately present to him in that moment as if he had been back there 1900 years ago. But I particularly wanted to emphasize two things.
First: “Do not mind because many sounding your name do not understand you. I do not sound your name, but I understand you.” The Name. In certain sacred settings the Name itself would not be spoken, when standing on sacred ground. Recognizing together that we are in heaven and on Holy Ground, we would be divinely forthright with each other, and we could say that the Name is the Body of the Son. And we are in the Name, we are in the Body of the Son. We are in the Body of the Sun, that great orb that centers this solar system. And we are in the Body of the Son. As human beings, we are in the Body of the Son, the Body of the God Being within, and we are in the Body of the Archangelic Son.
Second: The other point that Whitman made was expressed as, “My spirit to yours dear brother.” I could say that to Stewart in thanksgiving for what he brought of his own spirit, recognizing that spirit, not so much the information conveyed, but recognizing the brother: “My spirit to yours dear brother.” I could say that to John, recognizing that fine stature and largess of spirit: “My spirit to yours dear brother.” Or, “My spirit to yours dear sister.” We may not go about speaking those words out loud to each other, except in a particular kind of company, being on Holy Ground. And there would be other phrases too, that we might use in the Body of the Son.
Uranda mentioned that his favorite term to use, in speaking of the God Being, would be, “My Prince.” If I came into your company and I greeted you, and we were moving in the sacred atmosphere of the spirit together, and we were conscious of being on Holy Ground, and aware of the burning bush—we could say it's present as the orb of the Sun. but we also could say it is present as the burning bush at the Core of the Body of the Son of God—and there is opportunity for Holy greeting, sacred interchange and acknowledgment before we get down to business. What was it John, the Father's business, the corporation? Uranda gave a beautiful service in 1954 called, “Co-owner In The Father's Business.” I think that's what John was emphasizing, and he expanded that phrase out and differentiated it somewhat. But in the Body of the Son we are sons and daughters in our human beingness, and from the standpoint of the angel or the God Being we are Lords and Ladies of creation—our creation. Lords who love the design of being that is evident in the clarity of the New Heaven that we begin to know together. And it becomes evident in the New Earth that we begin to share together, as we live in this Body of the Sun at the level of the outer world, we say. But also in the Body of the Son that relates to the formations of God Beings that are coming into expression on earth through you and me, and many others.
I watch the news; I watch the public affairs programs that are on the internet and on TV. I've been astounded to see the radiance beginning to emerge through many of those who are doing the interviewing, who are reading the news, and many of those who are being interviewed. We can see the brutality and the brutishness that is evident as well; the destructiveness and the lack of ability to recognize the sanctity of life, and to say, at least in attitude, “My spirit to yours dear brother, dear sister.” But I have been noting how the radiance is coming through many in the Body of the Son. I watch our head CBC news anchor, and when I see her there is such an abundance of competence and stability, and compassion and deep care, and it's so evident through her that it just pours out of her and through the screen, and I say, “My spirit to yours dear sister.” And she's just one among many. But I want to mention that because this is evidence of what is taking place in the Body of the Son—not in the tomb, but actually emerging into the Garden experience. They would not speak this way, but I know it and I speak it to you because I know you know it.
And I know, as you do, that there begins to be a broad spectrum of representation evident in this emerging new nation, that is the focus of the Body, this Son consciousness. But that isn't present in a direct way through each member in the same way that it may be in the conscious mind and heart of those who provide that focus, but the radiance of it permeates the whole body of those who are somehow catalyzed into agreement with its spirit, union with it. So it is easy to see that the illumination of the whole body is happening because of the illumination that is taking place in the focus pattern that is emerging on earth. And that is us in this service pattern; that is us in the Tone of Life service pattern; that is us through all the attunement gatherings; that is us and others—and we have been called to this time, called to recognize it and know it, called to let the radiance of the light of the City in the Sun, the City of the Son, increase here on earth; not so much through increasing numbers and adding more people but through the radiance of those of us who already know that this is why I am here.
We are the Holy City. Angels incarnate in form as individual beings are a Holy City in the Son. The Body of the Son as it relates to this world—all of humanity being resurrected as it moves along in this restoration cycle—is a City, a Radiant City in a larger Son. And so each of us can say, “I am the, a, Holy City within a greater City, within the Body of the Son”—the Body of the Son of God, and the Body of the Sun of this whole Solar Entity.
There are many things that could be considered in relationship to this, in terms of the design as we begin to discover it emerging in our own consciousness. It relates to our own specific purpose for being here, and no one is supposed to bring what the other one brings; there may be overlap in some who are closely working together within specific groupings of angels in the Body—two or three together, or seven or twelve—but each of us brings something quite unique and different. It is a whole body that needs to be filled out, so that there is a functioning entity here.
The Bhagavad Gita speaks about the nine gateways of the body; gateways for radiance and for response, gateways for assimilation and gateways for elimination. But there are also three other primary gateways that relate to the consciousness of the mind and the heart and the spiritual expression level. So we have twelve primary gateways in the Body of the Son of God, and the thirteenth is the Son itself, the Lord within, the God Being who created the Body with its twelve gateways in order to express and release the spirit in accord with the creative purposes of the God Being, and of the Archangelic focal points that are seen and known to be present in the City in the Son. All these things just begin to dawn on us. And then, of course, in the Body we have seven other primary gateways. So we have the seven and the twelve in our individual makeup, and in the makeup of the developing Body of the Son of God on earth.
Now, as I say these things I just share with you some of what I'm beginning to become aware of. John, in his service. spoke about what one begins to become aware of, that is coming down or flooding into consciousness through this crossover point that is the human being on earth; and each one of us will have different things coming into consciousness from on high, thoughts and ideas that are our specific responsibility to embody, tend and care for; and we find ways will naturally appear to blend with other members of the One Body. This is happening. The little tribulations that arise between us from time to time are no big deal really. The development of this Body is well underway! It is not going to disappear. And what arises as points of difference or misunderstanding can quickly dissolve as attention is given in the right place, and we proceed. We may have to move a little over here, a little over there, make some adjustments, but always these things that come and go in the cycles of clarification and purification of the heaven that we share in this resurrection cycle, these cloudy areas or darkened spots will pass away. And we can help them pass away more quickly—or maybe not. Sometimes it is best to leave them alone for a little bit, and not misinterpret what's going on.
We are in a purification cycle still, so that more of this Body of the Son can appear and be effective in function through each individual one, and through the whole that we know is present. And the whole of humanity, every human being, all of the creation—animal, vegetable, mineral; and the crowning creation, the human being—all of it is moving in this one grand restorative cycle, with its purpose being to bring as many as will come into a totally new experience than that which has been known in the state that we call “fallen man.” Although we, you and I, are in that world of fallen man, very much in that world of mixed up, confused and imprisoned human beings, we ourselves do not have to be imprisoned. As Whitman said:
“Yet we walk unheld, free, the whole earth over, journeying up and down
till we make our ineffaceable mark upon time and the diverse eras,
Till we saturate time and eras, that the men and women of races, ages to come,
may prove brethren and lovers as we are.”
This is the Word of the Third Sacred School. This is the Word of Emissaries of Divine Light. This is the Word extending from the Temple of Light. This is the sounding of the Tone of Life and Love. It has never been exclusive. Even though I know in myself, in my human makeup, I've made it exclusive in times past. One of the greatest things that the Master brought was a continuous Spirit of Forgiveness throughout His Ministry. And His last words were, “Father, forgive them.” And that phrase, that Word, is resounding in my soul over this Easter season. “Father, forgive me, for I did not know what I was doing in those moments. My human soul speaks those words directly to the Father of All, and to the Mother of All, for not being the Son, the true Son of Father and Mother God, or for not being the true Daughter of Father and Mother God. “Father, Mother, forgive me, for I did not know.” And now I know and I feel, ahead of time, that there is forgiveness for that which may yet transgress in the future, transgress the Laws of the Reality of Being as we move through the cycles of purification and regeneration together. But the word is, “Father, forgive them”—forgive all those that we can see in the world who slip and slide in the mud of the human condition. And it is so, as we move ahead together. And it is One Spirit, One Body, no matter how many formations we have, formations that are differentiated aspects of this Body, formations that are required to accomplish certain things in the world, through release of the Spirit of this Body.
We can't do it together as one big lump, undifferentiated. This little Temple of Light body was brought together four years ago—this is the fourth year completed—but brought together in order to help generate new qualities of substance, and provide an opportunity for more of us to actually come forth and speak the Word, more than had been happening for many years before. And that is no criticism of anything that went on before. I am so grateful for all of it, but we're in a new time. And this is the time of the Body of the Son of God, and it is a time for the Sons and Daughters of God in this Body to come forth, and bring what is theirs to bring into the frame of reference of the body of mankind, with whom each one has particular connections and responsibilities that maybe others don't know anything about; and don't have to know anything about just yet, but you know that it is so for you. So this opportunity that has been sustained for these four years has given more angels an opportunity to speak the Word in a Temple service, before their fellows and before God, before the LORD of Lords. This service pattern will shift and change in the days to come; patterns will increase and patterns will dissolve. I have no idea what will happen to Temple of Light in the days to come, or any other of the vehicles that we have for service right now, but it is really One Vehicle that is being differentiated to serve many opportunities that we begin to see are at hand—and more will come as we use these ones rightly.
And so, this is some of what I feel is emerging in the Garden experience—out of the tomb—into the experience of the Son, Who was never in the tomb, but always in the Garden. It is only the human facilities that have been entombed. “Imprisoned Splendor,” Robert Browning called it, the human condition—imprisoned splendor now released from the prison, out of the tomb and in the Garden together. There are things to talk about, things to share, details that relate to the healthy growth and development of the Body of the Son, the Divine One. And so, may these words provide assurance that we are working together no matter what formations we may find ourselves a part of dominantly, because of our particular gift that we bring as an angel into the Body just as it is right now, It will be different in the future, but just as it is right now. My spirit to yours, dear brother, dear sister. Forgive me my trespasses. But I see you and I know you.
“Forgive them Father, their trespasses—like You have forgiven them, that is now my responsibility. And as Your Body forming on earth, my responsibility is to release the Spirit of Forgiveness dominantly, and then the prison doors open, and people make their choices. We know we've gone in and out in the past at times; not so much anymore. My spirit—the One Spirit—to yours, to each one here, the ones I'm with right now, “My spirit to your spirit, dear brother, dear sister.”
On this grand Easter day—we could say the Grand Easter Day of the Ages, where the resurrection and the restoration of the Body of the Radiant Son of Father and Mother is happening, and we're a part of that happening—on this grand Easter day, “My spirit to yours, dear brother, dear sister.” And we have a few minutes for a few words from you, if anybody would like to offer their Word from their place in the Body of the Son.

Gary Courtland-Miles — Thank you my brothers. Greetings Angels, brothers, sisters. Thank you Father for this strengthening, this powerful Spirit that has been with us, strengthening us in our Priesthood, our Priesthood that blesses the whole earth and also blesses each other. We bless each other, we lift each other up, we recognize the beauty and radiance of each one. So let us continue to do a new thing, let a new thing be done. Turns out that new thing is that Glory we had in the beginning with Father and Mother God before the foundation of this world. So let us continue to rise up and let it be done.
Yujin Pak — David, Stewart. First of all David, I take your words “Forgive me my trespasses” as not just a repeat of old words but genuine, deep words, and I hear you brother, what you're saying of your heart. As I hear what the two of you have shared, what comes to me are the final words of the Master, “Be with me where I am.” Eternal words. “Be with me where I am”, and in this day we have the opportunity to fulfill the resurrection and fulfill these eternal words to be with Him now, where He is, in oneness with His Being as His princes and princesses. As we are forgiven of the trespasses that we each have known of each other—ways in which we may have trespassed upon each other—asking forgiveness, releasing in forgiveness, we come back into that place that the Master asked, “Be with me where I am, O my princes, O my princesses.” And we have the opportunity to greet each other in this day in the fulfillment of those eternal words and stand now as Sons and Daughters of God, present in this final hour of fulfillment that all that He did may be magnified, glorified. In whom? In us. Stewart, you spoke about Jae Hyoung's words, “Is there hope for mankind?” As long as the Lord is present through me and you there's hope for mankind. How more true could words be? As long as the Lord is present through me and you; as long as His princes and His princesses are present through me and you today. And the resurrection is not of the past but is now. There's absolute hope for humanity and isn't this the glorious hour in which to fulfill that. To serve the LORD in a kindly human way? Do we want to do that any longer, as individual separate human beings? Why not in these essential hours enter the full surrender that our Master did, released of separate human self, one with the Father, and be the Father present on earth now as He was. This was His prayer for us, that the Father may be present on earth in these final hours, through me, through you. O my princes, O my princesses, I greet you, released of all the trespasses that we may have known of each other.
Davina Misroch — Thank you Yujin. Thank you David, thank you Stewart. We are the Holy City. We are the Holy City—a very profound tone sounded this evening, this morning; a unified radiation that I have rarely felt the quality of, sustained. I just extend my love and oneness with you. My spirit to yours. I give thanks LORD, for this exquisite and precious moment.
David Barnes — Thank you very much Davina and Yujin and Gary. Stewart—my spirit to yours, dear brother—thank you. And Steve we return this to you, in thanksgiving for all your angelic work, and you can close our time together.
Steve Ventola — O LORD, as we bow our heads and be still, giving thanks for continuing with the flow of Thy Word, for the flow of Thy Word continues moment by moment by moment. It's our greatest love to be with it. And if we fade from that Word, we forgive and we return always to Thy Way. As we feel the resurrecting power of Thy presence, we yield all flesh, heart and mind, that Thy Word may extend, that safety may be known in this world, and that ascension may be continued. All for the glory of Thy Name, through Thy expression through us. Aumen.
Our next Temple of Light service will be on February 14th with Yujin Pak speaking from Loveland, Colorado
