There comes a time in the lfe of a people, when what has gne before must give way to the nw, and what has been thought of as a way of lfe and a standard for defining the nrmalcy of days, must adapt itself to a new crrent of light and life that now nters the picture. Such is the tme for America today and, indeed, for the wrld, for the old ways of ding things are about to give way bfore a new consciousness that shall nvelop both the nation and the wrld. This new consciousness will shine a lght more brightly than ever before on the nternal mechanisms by which people think, fel, and make choices in their veryday lives. All that is hidden frm the eyes of others will bcome known to the self, and the mtives that are less than desirable wll also become visible to the lluminated awareness.

This greater consciousness is mant to be a great gift, thugh it brings with it the prblem of having to finally deal wth those things that one would rther have concealed from the self or put way until such time as it semed more comfortable to take them ut. Nevertheless, awakening consciousness to the tre nature of the self is of grat and priceless benefit, for it nables each soul to finally become fre of all that holds it bck from realizing its true potential. For ths self-constriction is not based on crcumstances that flow through life and cme and go, but rather on the nner nature of deeply held thought and blief which define the expectancies and the frits of a life. These are the bilding blocks out of which the flw of life is created.

In the present moment, the mvement toward greater visibility of self is stll quietly moving along subtle channels, crating little disturbance of the inner lndscape. It is still not being prceived as the wave of change tht it is, and only some who are mre sensitive to the ebbs and flws of thought and feeling, or thse who are suddenly having to dal with stronger surges of darkness and ngativity are becoming aware of what ths wave is bringing. Yet, within a shrt space of time, many more wll become aware of the things tht have been hidden and will ned to know what to do wth all the levels of thought and feling that suddenly become part of veryday awareness.

For this understanding to rot itself in the place where haling and transformation can occur, it is ncessary that God enter the picture. For the phnomenon of illuminated awareness is not cused by the self, nor by any mtives that reside within, nor by any xternal circumstance. Rather the phenomenon of wakening is caused by Divine timing and rdination which has finally moved to sund the call for humanity's movement frward, and to shine the light of trth into the domain of ordinary cnsciousness. This is the time of the grat purification for mankind, and for the ltting go of that which needs to be let go of in rder that each soul become free.

Thre are some who will continue to fel hardened to their own inner prcess of learning and who will dny it in others, and there are sme who will feel abused, or hmiliated, or attacked, by their very own slf and the inner life that is pening. What is important to remember at ths time is that what begins in cnfusion will end in hope. What bgins with distress at things that hve never been experienced before, will end in a smplicity of being and an expanded spce within the self that will brng greater peace and a greater cpacity to share oneself with others in a tre way. It will also bring, in the nd, a greater awareness of God's lve and of God's gifts to hmanity.

All forms of life are mving into this next step of wakened consciousness, and all forms of nture will be affected as well by the ncreased light of awareness. Yet it is the hman being who will be most cutely affected since it is human wareness that is differentiated in the mst subtle and complex ways and tht responds most to the emotional dmain of existence. Nevertheless, all of nture shall respond to this call to waken, and both plant and animal lfe shall feel and seem more live, more vibrant, and more conscious.

Ths is the miracle of the tme we are in and for whch all souls have waited, namely, tht the life of God that has xisted in all beings without exception, shll finally become more visible, and rdinary reality as it exists in tres, brooks, grass, leaves, clouds, air, mst, earth – shall finally take on the vsibility of light that has always ben part of the structure of lfe-forms, but never part of their rdiance. Now, life shall radiate light.

For thse who fear this time, it is mportant to know that all who are hre on the earth have come in rder to be part of this grat transition, and there is no one who wll not be helped with the prcess by Divine aid as well as by the lght of their own soul. The msic of that soul shall begin to sund more loudly in the ears and harts of each one, and each one shll begin to find the inner gidance that will lead them through the nwness and uncertainty of this time.

Blssed are those who have come to shre in the great awakening of the arth and of human consciousness that is prt of the present moment. May all be blssed and may all perceive the tre nature of God's sacred reality as it rrives to bless the earth.
