The Shamballa Letter
VOLUME 17, Number 6 February 10, 1995
My Beloved Students,
I shall begin today by asking a question. Were you able to remain calm and centered during the previous week? Were you focused upon the light of God which always surrounds you, as you have been intensifying this light through the use of the holy breath? You know within your mind the truth of the principles involved but as you are seeing, it is not such an easy matter to manifest these truths in your everyday activities.
This beloved ones, is the work you will accomplish during this year. Our teachings must not only be received and understood by your mind, but also felt and accepted by your feeling body. This can be done by simply asking yourself if what you have experienced feels right. For many of you, this might seem a silly question to ask yourself, but to others, this is the primary way in which they acknowledge the truth. It is not necessary for many people to have all of the facts for they know what they feel and follow their feelings. If you are unsure of your answer and you don't as yet trust your feelings, then you must study further to expand your understanding of the wisdom given. You must also remember the gifts of your past.
Your exercise this week will be to begin to receive understanding from a different source than how you usually experience it. If you are a person of great feeling, begin to search out your information by looking it up in a book first. As you do this, you may come across some additional information that you have been seeking for a very long time which will assist in expanding your understanding further. For those of you who always have a great many books surrounding you as you work, before going to one of your books, think about what you are looking for and perceive the truth through your feeling nature. Follow this up by then reading the facts previously given.
Perhaps the opportunity will even come up when you need to search your memory for knowledge you have been given a very long time ago regarding something you need to know now. Recognize and acknowledge each and every time this happens by offering your love and gratitude to your etheric body for this wonderful ability.
You must also take time to understand the information contained within your physical body. Through the infinite wisdom of this integral part of yourself, there is no need for you to concentrate your attention upon the various functions of your body for them to work. In fact, in most cases, you do not even need to think about whether your body is fulfilling its job for you. This perhaps is the greatest gift of all and the one most people take for granted.
Are you beginning to see a pattern? You have four lower vehicles and they must work together in harmony and co-service with one another to serve you perfectly. Then, united with and assisted by your three higher bodies, they create the one body which you will have during this lifetime. This body must be treated with respect, for it is the sacred and holy instrument through which God works upon this Earth. Observe often the activity of your one body as it seeks to fulfill your divine plan. Remember that as you do, my love is always enfolding you, beloved disciples!
Holy Ĉolus
