Celestial Artisan, Athena.
Received by George Barnard.
Athena: "I wish to talk about a suitable preparation for
the meditative state, but before I begin, an acknowledgement of sorts.
As a government-sponsored artist on my home world, I undertook to produce
many sculptures, some of which took many months to complete. My lessons,
also, tended to be lengthy, and at first it hurt my feelings to have
these lessons shortened - chopped down to the essentials by this publisher
of almost daily transcripts of channelings.
"In retrospect, and in keeping with your Planetary Prince's order;
to 'take people to the starting gates of spirituality, to then let them
run their own race,' your limiting of the lessons to one page or thereabouts
was correct. So many, we perceive, will join the 11:11 Progress List
in two minds about staying on it . . . until their mailbox presents
them with what they need, precisely. So, stay with the chopped-up transmissions,
11:11 Progress, because you truly are about numbers, and long transmissions
are seldom read to the end by busy folks.
"I hear, 'I told you so!' I jest! No such sentiments, my friends,
but on with my message before I go over the page. I want to speak with
you about meditation, and direct my comments at those who are finding
difficulty in reaching that important tranquil state. There is always
a reason for your failing when you do. Here is my recipe for meditation,
tried and tested. Think intent, sincerity, reconciliation, prayer, persistent
trust, and kind request.
"What is your intent? Is it to be of service to others, and thereby
promoting yourself to being the hands and feet of the Creator of All,
or are you merely looking for fame and fortune? How sincere are you
in helping others? Will you perhaps merely consider another in need,
or will you be ready at a moment's notice to be of assistance when the
Creator places someone in your path? Are you prepared to solve interpersonal
problems before you even begin, or do you consider yourself to have
enough 'power' to overcome such an obstacle? No, you do not.
"Reconciliation, my dear ones, is essential, and if the other party
won't forgive, or even meet you halfway, your task is complete if you
will forgive with all your heart. Prayer is something few understand.
It is hardly a request to win the lottery -- a gimme, gimme -- but an
awareness, a realization, that within you dwells a Spark of the Creator,
and He or She will one day merge with you to create a new eternal being.
All this being well so far, do you now start to see what might happen,
maybe, perhaps, if your luck holds out? No! Complete trust is of the
essence, my beloved ones, that your pattern of persistent approach will
in time reward you with a tranquil mind, and direction from 'above'
for a more successful spiritual life.
"More important than all I've told you so far is your relationship
with the innately perfect Fragment of the Creator, which indwells you
to share your life experiences with you, so request permission, and
make known for consideration your intent, your sincerity, your goal
of reconciliation if needed, and not yet achieved , your decision to
prayerfully approach your meditation regimen in persistent trust.
"This has been my advice for a thousand years with great, and ongoing
success. Signing off now, and sending my love to all. I am Athena."
George: "I was going to suggest you probably went over the
page, but I'll bite my tongue instead. Love you, Athena."
