April 2008 at Twin Oaks, VA

Good morning, we are here. We are pleased to be among you today. Some of you we know quite well, and each of you has your own connections to various elements of us, and so we are pleased to be speaking to you in this group today.  Now, typically, we like to talk about things that affect all of you--that affect you on a perceptual basis.  In other words, we tell you how you look at things--how you are regarded by the world around you. We would like to address, however, today, something specific to this group that you are among this morning. Many of you mentioned recently thinking about the concept of community, and you are each cognizant of the connections that exist among you.  So we will tell you a little bit more about that and how that works for you and what perhaps there exists between all of you here today.  And why it is, in a grander sense, that all of you are here today together, making these connections and having these interactions.

You know, of course, that it was no accident that you are here as a group this weekend.  Each of you came for your own reasons, but there also exists among you interaction that occurs on a less-than-conscious basis. Now, you are all aware that this goes on.  Sometimes you interact with others during your sleep-time in dreams, or even in other sleep-time activity, on an astral level.  Often there is also interaction that occurs while you were consciously awake, when you are perhaps thinking about someone. That is an interaction; that is communication.  Simply thinking about someone is communicating with them. You are connecting with them on an energetic basis.  They may not always be consciously aware of this, but there is an awareness nonetheless.

So you have formed this group and you have made, in some cases, deeper connections with one another than you had before.  Some of you here--you are meeting in the physical sense for the first time.  Others are old friends such as we are, and you have known each other a long time in various circumstances.  So specifically, what we see as happening among you during this gathering is an integration process.  In other words, you all came here with your own perceptions about yourselves, about one another, about this group, and about your wider community, your wider spiritual communities. And the interaction that has occurred over the course of the weekend has allowed you to integrate much of that in ways that you hadn’t before. So what is the purpose of this? Is there a purpose--a specific grander purpose--for this gathering this weekend? Well, we would say yes.

What we see are a number of things. We see four.

Number one:  You will, of course, take the energy from this interaction back to where you live, and it will then affect all the interactions you have with everyone forever after.  So you will be taking energy of whomever you are interacting with this weekend, and taking a little bit of that with you, and then going back to where you live and using that energy to interact with others, forever after. So a little bit of each of you follows all of you to wherever you go after this weekend.  So there is that.

Number two: We have spoken before, how your physical self is altered by any interaction with anyone else.  In other words, you are affected, on a cellular level, by any interaction you have with anyone else, and that includes on a physical sense, face-to-face, on the telephone, through electronic means, through thought--any kind of interaction affects you on a cellular level.  This is why some people cause you to feel good after interacting with them and some people cause you to feel not so good.  And it depends on their energy and how they, how they affect you in many ways.  So you are changed, in other words, by the interaction that you have had this weekend. You are not the same person that you were two days ago.  Now, why is this important?  Well, your body will continue to move along its path, based on where you are at this point, and since this point is different than the point it was in two days ago, your path is, as a result, altered as well.  So where you are going from now, how your body is and reacts and responds, is a little bit different from how it would've been had you not had these interactions all weekend.  Now, is it specific to this gathering, this weekend, this place? Well no, of course not. You are always being affected on a cellular level by every interaction that you have with anyone. Your path is always being altered just that little bit by every interaction you ever encounter. Now, what is the use of this? Does this somehow take away choice if you are always being affected by others? Well, no, because on a wider sense, you always have the choice to enter into those interactions. So you all made a series of choices which led you here this weekend. On some level you had awareness of who all else would be present and were choosing to avail yourself of the energetic changes that would occur as a result for you. That’s number two

Number three: There is going on within this wider--we will call it the Michael teachings community and you all are aware of what of what we mean--there is a series of changes that is taking effect, and has been for some time. And we cannot tell you exactly where those changes will lead, but we can say that on the whole, within five or 10 years from now, things will look quite different. Things will feel quite different. Now, if you were to jump ahead five or 10 years and find yourself immersed in that wider community and compare it to what you have known, there would be some disorientation.  There would be some consternation, for it would feel quite different, but you will have the ensuing five or 10 years to move through and you will see these changes slowly taking place. And for some, those changes will be painful.  It will be a departure from what they have known. Things don't always remain static, as you know.  Things always continue to change.  It is clinging to what you think can remain the same that causes pain, when you acknowledge that change is always occurring and change is a part of your lives. So changes are afoot, in other words, and this gathering and other gatherings like this are part of what is creating that change.

Now, where will these changes lead? As we have said, we cannot tell you exactly, and there are of course a number of other factors that will continue to affect this. But overall, overall what we see is a return to embracing the newness and the excitement of information that comes through, and of how you can use this to change your own lives. It has been said that this wider community has been mired in theory for some time, and we would say, on a surface level, that is as we perceive it as well. There has always been a great deal of new information coming through. It is the choice of those in the wider community whether to acknowledge that new information or not. And we see now, as a result of gatherings such as the one that you are now in, a sense of excitement and welcome for the newness that is always present for you. That is number three regarding this wider Michael teachings community.

Number four: You are each learning, in your lives as part of what you do, elements of your own interaction with others. And through this interaction with others, you learn more about yourself. Sometimes, you see yourself mirrored in others, and it helps you see yourself more clearly.  You were feeling energy recently. You were feeling energy of groups, were you not, where you were within a group and you felt either like or unlike that group.  So, by looking at the group around you, feeling that, you could judge whether you, yourself belonged in that group. This is a very simplified and distilled way of looking at all your interactions that take place for you all the time.  You are always considering how you fit in with others. And you do this on an energetic basis.  You do this all the time without realizing it. So that is number four.  You are learning more about yourself through this interaction with others.

Now, we have talked about why you came together this weekend, and what you have accomplished. Let us talk to you now about your collective role in this wider Michael teachings community. Now, each of you, again, have come to this for varying reasons of your own.  That is as it should be. If you each came to this with the same reason, you would all be more or less the same person, and you are clearly not.  So your role in this wider community also varies on an individual basis, but overall, we see that each of you and many others similar to you, are involved in creating this change.  You are involved in creating a series of interactions that will have a wider, like a rippling effect, upon others, and allow them to avail themselves of that same openness, to the excitement that is all around all of you.  So your effect, then, from being here and being who you are and making the choices that you do, will have a wider effect on this greater community. And this will occur whether or not you are truly committed to creating a Michael teachings community or not, for it is there whether or not it is something that you choose to focus on on an intellectual level.  You are all part of this wider community, whether or not you feel a strong connection. It is there nonetheless.  Perhaps you know about the community of spores that exists in the soil under your feet.  There is a large and pervasive community. We will call it a mushroom mat community of spores that exists in the soil, and these communities run through the entire earth. There are several of them, and they all have the ability to communicate within the community, even without direct interaction. So we will compare the community that you are in with that community of spores that exists in the soil. For you are having communication, whether or not you are consciously aware of it. And this occurs, then, at a cellular level, on an energetic level.  Now why would you be interested in this?  Why are you making choices in your life that lead you here to be creating this new community, if you will. There is a group, of which you are all loosely members, that is very much interested in changing the nature of the structure of the human population in terms of social identity and social interaction.  There is quite a large group involved in this, and has been for some time, and we would say that enough energy has been poured into this project at this point--it has been going on for about 200 of your years--to begin to see some real changes in the structure at some point relatively soon. And this is part of what you are all loosely engaged in, see.  There are about half a million people involved in this project.  It's not really very many compared to the entire population of the globe, and certainly not very many compared to the entire fragment population, if you will, of the human race.  Those include everyone in a body and everyone not presently in a body. But roughly half a million are concerned with this project and have been for some time, of changing the social structure of the human population. Now, what will this look like in the future?  Well, some of you have glimpses of this.  There are idealists among you who see how real and open communication and interaction can be between people, and you have glimpses of this from time to time.  (A cell phone rings.) You see how communication is with you. (Laughter.) So again, this half a million, roughly, people are involved in this project, and how will this look in the future? And as we said, some of you have glimpses of this. Some of you have experienced this on some level, and you know what this can be like. And we will say overall, you could be looking for more openness, more frankness, less hidden aspects. So this will result, then, and this is in terms of just communication and interaction.  So there will be a move toward disclosure. No, not for everyone. This is not easy or comfortable for everyone, and you know this. But there will be, overall, more disclosure and more room for this kind of interaction, and how this will affect people will happen on a number of different levels.  Again, there will be pain for many people. Many people are existing within their own small shells and find it difficult or fearful to disclose who they are, for their fear of emptiness inside. You will see quite a lot of this.  But having more room for this openness of interaction will allow closer interaction in many ways and allow a sense of interdependence to develop. Now, human society has had this in the past; now you’ve moved away from it. Well, cycles as you know, happen. There is a waveform pattern: Things go up, they come down, they go up again.  So you are moving into a time where there will be an increased amount of interdependence among the human population. Now, will this occur in the next 10 years? No. Will there be movement toward that? Certainly. And many of you will start to see more of that in your life because you are creating it around you, and you are playing with it, to see what that feels like. So we’ll jump ahead, perhaps 200 years, and, yes, really start to see more of that interdependence, more of that openness, more of that disclosure aspect in intercommunication between people. Now, when you have that, and everyone is open and up-front, there is also an increased nonverbal communication that is going on, because there is simply more room for all types of communication.  So you are all involved, again loosely, in that project. Whether or not it is something that you feel personally committed to or not, you are part of the experiment, if you will, of learning how to implement this, and learning how it works, and figuring it out how best to move into that state of being for the entire population as a whole.  Now, this, of course, will have effects on social levels and political levels, and anything that affects the population on political levels will have effects on economics and environmental issues, et cetera.  So there will be an enhanced sense of connection to the earth, and however that manifests in terms of social and political and economic issues.  So this enhanced sense of connection will also bring with it changes and that's part of what this enhanced sense of interdependence among people will also bring. So again, within a couple of hundred years, you could zoom ahead to that time and start to see something that looks quite different from the social structure that exists now on a global basis.

Let us start with some questions.

Ed: How did the four of your soul groups get together to do this, and is this something which, are there many thousands and millions of other soul groups like us who are also doing the same sort of thing?

Yes. At our level of development, there comes a time where it is quite useful to begin to move together in groups, and to form entity groups in order to exert influence on certain projects.  So, we have our own ways of interconnecting with each other and interacting and learning things on that level, if you will. But a great deal of our learning comes through our teaching, and we are all of us, all four of us, engaged, as you know, quite heavily in the teaching aspect. Not every causal entity is engaged in teaching, but many of us are--the majority of us are at this point, at our level.  So, part of our evolution, just as you are learning how to interact in groups, we are also learning how to interact in groups as well. And these groups are various sizes up to quite a few entities, and we are, all of us, all of our four individual entities, are also involved in groups of other size and structure.

Ed: Were you involved with each other when you were physical, or has this coming together happened after you graduated from the physical?

Certainly there were interactions between some of us on a physical basis, but that was not the means by which we chose to come together at this point.  We have all of us been through many cycles,  just as you have, and have knowledge of one another from various times in our past.  But our coming together this way is, for us, relatively new at this point, and we have been working together for some time and have only relatively recently chosen to utilize this group structure, this group energy, to enhance our collective teaching.

Would you like to see our various energies? We know there is a great curiosity about this. (Response – Yes). Alright, we will do this; we have done this before.  We find it amusing. So, most of you know Michael fairly well, not just on this plane of existence, but in other ways, so we will separate ourselves for you and we will show you just Michael.  Michael is here. Now Michael, as you know, is made of Kings and Warriors, and speaks with some authority, yet with humor. But we would like you all to feel the energy right now, of Michael.  (Silence while Michael’s energy is felt.)

Alright.  Now, we will introduce you to Seth.  Some of you have seen Seth, at various times, through various guises. Seth is particular about coming through on an individual basis and this is not a preference necessarily for Seth at this time, but Seth would like to visit with you now. (Silence while Seth’s energy is felt.) You may have noticed that even though we do not necessarily come through so much on an individual basis, it is much of our energy that you see when we are speaking as a group.  Not all the time.  We do not necessarily take turns, but for some of our structural information, then we, Seth, is who tends to come forth more.

So, we will lift, and next we would like to show you Robert. And here is Robert. (Silence while Robert’s energy is felt.) Robert is very much interested in speaking to you on certain levels.  Robert, as you know, has a flair for the dramatic, and is responsible for many of the gestures that we make.  Now you may relax into Robert for a moment. (More silence.)

Now, in a moment we have Aesha. There are some of you in this room who know the energy of Aesha.  So we will bring in simply Aesha. (Silence while Aesha’s energy is felt.)  There is someone over here that Aesha would like to speak to. It is the message of nurturing and of assurance that the person in your life that you are caring for is very much aware of the gestures that you make in order to make her life more comfortable.  And this is what Aesha would like you to know.

Ed: Is it me?

Yes.

And we are back as Polaris. Now, we will welcome further questions.

Bill: Thank you. It is a pleasure to meet you. I feel a--it's very strange--I feel a strong connection with Robert, and, I feel, although Aesha is very quiet, there is a strong connection there as well. Just, really, I'm just feelin’ it, wow, it's like, wow. Love you all, love you all! Ok, it's a quadrate--four entities in a quadrate. And I’m wondering if we have, my guess when I first heard that, was that you would have four positions in a quadrate, and tell me if this is valid, it may not be valid, just a guess. And thinking, like, Michael would be in power, Aesha would be in support, Robert would be in love, Seth would be in knowledge. But that's--I have no idea if that’s valid or not--and perhaps you could comment on that.

We would say that it is valid to look at us that way, under that framework. And yes, you have our energies associated correctly.

Bill: In other configurations which you had intimated occurred – that you are in other configurations with other entities--how does that work? Are we talking, like, quadrates, septets, that sort of thing, or is that the way that's working at all? What kind of configurations do you seek out for your own growth?

Just as you meet in groups of varying sizes and structure, so are we. We spoke to you of a group of around 500,000, which you are loosely associated with, and there are groups that size that we are also loosely associated with, on a similar basis. There are also groups of a smaller size with a more defined structure that we are also involved with. And this is done on an individual basis, much as your own group participation is done on more or less an individual basis. So, there’s not a set rule about the structure. However, there is an overall design, as you can imagine, a geometry, if you will. And we are all a part of that and we have awareness of our place within that--more so than do you. But simply because we have the perspective from which to see this and we are not tied to the perception of the physical plane, which is limited to form and time. So we have a much easier time seeing our overall place within the geometry of all that is. And we each, individually, as an entity, have our places within that that we have awareness of. Does that answer your question?

Bill: Yes, it does. I have just one last and I’ll pass it on. On a personal level, given who I am and my personal limitations and so forth as they exist at this moment, perhaps, how can I strengthen that connection with you? I’d like to strengthen that, because I just--like you!

You have asked. That is all you need.

Thea: I wonder if you could provide some perspective for us Twin Oakers who are experimenting with the communal structure in ways that we could act interpersonally, structurally, as a community in order to be more in alliance with our intentions as a group.

We would say that overall there has been a relatively efficient use of your abilities to connect with one another on a less than conscious basis, in order to evolve the formation of your community.  The needs of this community have changed, of course, based on the structure, the makeup of the members within it, and you have awareness of this. In terms of how you can make this better, well, some of you are there simply to have experienced conflict, and conflict doesn't always feel good.  There are some of you who are very much involved in making conflict go away.  So, not everyone has the same needs, in other words. There is, however, an overall awareness of the community as a whole throughout most of your members. And in some ways this can provide the larger community with a pretty good working model of how this works in reality, at least how it works among the various members that are a part of it and their perspectives. Now, one thing we can suggest would be to invite members with more widely variant perspectives than what you have. In the Michael teaching terms you mostly have a community of mature-perspective souls. If you were to want to really design a model community that could be an experiment to show what it could be like on a global basis, then you would want souls with perspectives that are both a less-wide viewpoint and a wider viewpoint than the mature level.  However, that may cause some of your structure to fall apart somewhat and could cause some other difficulties.  So that may not be the most comfortable thing that you could do, but it would certainly give you a stronger idea of what a community structure could look like on a wider basis simply by observing it in a microcosm, which is what you are. But in terms of working with what you have, because we don't see you making those kind of changes in the foreseeable future, as that would upset the balance of what you have built in terms of what you have and how you can move forward from there, we would suggest putting some attention toward defining what it is each of you wants on an individual basis.  This sounds like it may run contrary to thinking about things on a community level, but certainly if everyone were very clear about what they wanted on an individual basis, then they could relate that to the community as a whole somewhat more easily. This won't work for everyone, but we would say that it could be quite effective for the majority of your population. Does that answer your question?

Thea: Yes, thank you.

Luann: What kind of advice could you give for people who are ready and wanting to start a new type of community but probably don't want to make it that all-inclusive. In other words, want a little more selective, like-minded, and don’t have a whole lot to go on right now, except a little bit of financial backing. What would be a next step, what kind of selection would be advisable? And advice you could give us....

It is useful to begin with, just as we were advising here, to ensure that everyone who will be involved is very clear about what they want, and then to communicate about that in an open fashion.  Not to leave anything behind, to have it all out there so that there are no surprises. And once everyone who is going to be involved is very clear about what they want, you can see if your picture aligns with the picture that everyone else has. Now, this is not to say that such a community will necessarily be successful.  If you have, say, a community of people who are very interested in relating, but not so interested in the doing aspects of this, simply more the reaping the benefits, then you will have a community that will not last very long because there is no one actually doing anything.  So, you will also have to look at the strengths and weaknesses on an individual basis and see if those add up to something that would actually make a viable community.  If you like, we can make some of our energy available to you in the future, simply, again, for the asking to assist you in this process of building a community and we can guide you, perhaps not on a conscious level for you, but we are more than willing to help guide you into shaping the community that is something that will be work and be sustainable for you.  We're sorry that we’re not able to give you too much more specific information at this time without knowing more about the individuals.  It seems that there is some question as to who all might be involved with this and it is difficult to project that far. We would say also to imagine what this community would be like once you have identified what everyone wants and then to really project into the future how that will actually work and to spend some time and energy doing so, doing that future projection. And you'll find that it's quite an effective process to use to find out what things might be like in the future. In fact, all of you can use this technique of looking at exactly what you have, and being very clear about what you have now, and very clear about what you want, and then projecting that energy into the future to see if it really is going to work and really going to be in alignment with what you want, and this technique works for almost anything which you see available to you, perhaps on a future basis.  Have we answered your question?

Luann: Yes, we’ll be in touch.

Marion: Perhaps this has been asked before and I haven’t read it, but how did the name Polaris come up? That’s like a submarine or missile or something like that to me. I know it’s a star, but why pick that? There’s a million things you could pick. I’m just curious about how that was chosen.

The name Polaris was given us, but it was also chosen by us if you will. There was some communication between us and the channels and we were playing some games that made them more conscious of what they were looking to get out of our interaction with them, and eventually that conscious intent was able to focus enough that it became a name. And having a name associated with guidance seemed like something suitable, and we are happy with it.

Marion: Thank you.

Mary: This may be too generalized, but I just wondered, I feel like there’s a message that you have for me? But, maybe not.

Yes. We would like to tell you that it's okay to be more comfortable in your own space of clarity, clearness. That around you there is a great deal of uncertainty as to what shape that clearness should take. And that uncertainty is derived from a number of factors in your history.  But we are just telling you that it is okay to let go of some of that and just to be okay in that space of clearness that is there around you, and just open up to seeing what’s there.

Mary: Was that coming from anyone in particular?

Who did you feel?

Mary: Aesha. (Karen nods.)

Mary: Ok.

Rebekah:  Michael has told us that many of us have been students in other lives of theirs. Have any of us been particular students of any of the other members of the quadrate in either this life or other lives?

Each of you can answer that on an individual basis, but we would say overall the answer is absolutely yes.  You are each students of multiple teachers, if you will. Some of you have made choices to align yourselves with the energy of a particular teaching energy, simply because you are focusing some time to really study and assimilate that. But we are all known to all of you in one way or another throughout some point in your history.

Amy: I’m just curious, is there any part of physicality that you will miss?

We are able to experience physicality through you, and this is part of what we are learning through you. And we are experiencing the physical-ness of you, but through this other perspective, and this gives us a comparison basis.  We remember, of course, what it's like to be in a body such as you are, and to have the perspective that you do, but now we are looking at the physical plane through our perspective, but we do that through you. So in terms of really missing it, not necessarily, because we are again experiencing this through an entirely different perspective now. We are able to, if we really wish to, manipulate a body, and feel everything that there is to be felt about being in a body. The only thing that we would lack is the physical plane perspective, although we could, if we chose to, completely narrow ourselves to that perspective and to experience everything that it is to be you except we would still have the knowingness that we can move out of that again and we would retain a greater knowingness of the facility of movement that we have between the planes.  So we can’t get it exactly like you have it, in other words, but we can come quite close.

Amy: I was wondering if there were things like the sun on your face, the wind on your skin, the birds in the trees--are there things like that that there's any longing for at all?

Again, we are experiencing all of that, but from a different perspective. So it is as if you know what the sun was like--as a child--on your face, and you know what it is like as an adult, and you may remember that--what it felt like as a child--but you may not particularly want to be that. Perhaps for a moment, and, again, momentarily is something that we are able to experience.  So we would say, overall, if we had to choose a yes or no answer to that, the answer would be no, we don’t really miss it.  But we have something similar in our experience through you.

Don: Is anyone continuing the work of Jane Roberts in channeling Seth? And I have a second question. Do you have any comment on the work of Robert Monroe, whose headquarters were not too far from here, on astral travel and other phenomena?

Alright, so the first question has to do with the channel Jane Roberts?

Don: Right.

And, I'm sorry, your question?

Don: She channeled Seth, and is anybody doing that?

Ah, yes, Seth is being channeled at present.  There are several who are channeling Seth. Some are not aware of this.  Some are calling Seth by other names, but that energy is still existing and still being channeled, even individually. Seth is not choosing to come through individually in this instance, other than as what you saw earlier today.  But yes, Seth is being channeled.

In terms of the man Robert Monroe.  Is there something specific you wish to know? Just terms of the validity of his information?

Don: Well, his headquarters before he left was in a small town not far from Charlottesville, and there are several books in which he traveled to many parts of the universe, astrally, and some people are continuing his work. So I was just wondering if you had any comments on that?

This was a man who was quite connected with, for lack of better terminology, extraterrestrial energy. Some of you are, not necessarily those in this room, we'll say, you, collectively, humans, and he was accessing that energy in order to facilitate a greater understanding of his own humanity.  So there are many of you who perform experimental lifetimes like that where you are making comparisons, and we spoke about ourselves making comparisons and on a communal level, perhaps, making comparisons--what you have and this other energy that you can compare it to, then. And we would say this is what the man you speak of was doing. He was comparing the energy that he possessed, partially on a physical level, certainly on a--there is no English word for it--on an intuitive, cerebral level, and he was making comparisons between that energy and using that, again, to enhance his understanding of his humanity and putting forth information that assisted with his understanding that. It was mostly for his own understanding, but he also understood that there would be others who would be able to utilize that information to enhance their own understanding. Does that answer your question?

Don: I think so.

Are there any other questions, then?

John D.: I’m not sure what the ground rules are here. I would like to know what my late wife--how she’s doing?

She is spending a fair amount of her time resting. And when we say resting, we mean really allowing all of her consciousness to be completely at rest. There was a great deal of her life involved in resisting. A great deal of her life was involved in resisting and now she is simply resting and allowing all of herself to completely relax and be at one with as much of everything as she can be. And it would appear to someone on the physical plane, perhaps, as a state much like sleep.  However, she is actively resting, knowing that at some point she will be saturated with this and be able to move on into other states of study and exploration. But for now, she is allowing all of her to really rest.

John: Thank you.

Linda D.: What would be a good meditative exercise to help us pull in these energies for ourselves so we can bring them into our lives for others?

So you would like to--you would like a meditation that will allow you to access our energy?

Linda D.: Yes

Yes, alright, let us lead you into one. This will allow the facility of your accessing the Polaris energy that is, of course, available to all of you, and this will help you differentiate this energy from the Michael energy that you are already familiar with.  So, you all arranged yourselves in your chairs already to become prepared for this.  So take a couple of deep breaths. And as you do so, become aware of the breathing of those around you. As you breathe, you realize that you are connected by your breath--what one breathes out, you breathe in. And as you do so, you become ever so much more a part of one another. And you breathe in, and you breathe out, and every time you do so it deepens your connection with everyone and everything around you. And as you breathe in, you begin to move your awareness in wider and wider circles until you notice that we and our energy completely surrounds you. You are breathing in our energy and breathing out our energy. And as you do so, as you breathe in, and as you breathe out, our energy permeates every part of your body.  There is no separation between us. We are around you, inside you, we support you, we guide you, we are there with you, and as you breathe, you will have awareness of this. And any time you wish to, you can simply take yourself to the space of breathing, and breathe us into you once again.  So take a moment now to really feel what this feels like through every pore and every cell of your body.  As we support you--all around you--we are one with you, and you are one with us, simply by breathing. And, if you like, now that you are so intimately connected with us, you may choose an intention for this connection, and every time you choose to connect with us in this manner, in the future, you may again choose an intention for this connection.  So, if you will, use this space, right now, to create an intention for the connection that we hold with you at this moment. And now, every time you exhale, you activate that intention, simply by the act of breathing. Every time you breathe out, you strengthen the intention that you created. And now you remember your own abilities to create the life around you that is always present for you. And to enhance your own connection to yourself and to us simply by breathing, and every time you perform this exercise, you strengthen your ability to connect to your own self, to your life, and to us, simply by breathing in, and breathing out.  Now you may wish to take a few moments to come back into your own space of being, or you may stay in that slightly altered space if you prefer it.  We would like to conclude our conversation with you this morning by telling you, again, how pleased we are to be among you speaking to you this way, and how pleased we are to have enhanced our own connection to you and yours with us, by interacting with you this morning.  We thank you.
