Gentleness

Listen to Mediation Recording.

An excerpt from the reading:

“Harm is impossible for God’s teachers, God’s demonstrators. They can neither harm nor be harmed. Harm is the outcome of judgment. It [harm] is the dishonest act that follows a dishonest thought. It is a verdict of guilt upon a brother, and therefore on oneself. It is the end of peace and the denial of learning. It demonstrates the absence of God’s curriculum, and its replacement by insanity. No teacher of God but must learn,—and fairly early in his training,—that harmfulness completely obliterates his function from his awareness. It will make him confused, fearful, angry and suspicious. It will make the Holy Spirit’s lessons impossible to learn. Nor can God’s Teacher be heard at all, except by those who realize that harm can actually achieve nothing. No gain can come of it.”

Tolerance

Listen to Mediation Recording.

In this section Jesus talks about judgement and he says “God’s teachers do not judge. To judge is to be dishonest, for to judge is to assume a position you do not have. Judgment without self-deception is impossible.”  Restating it as this: Those who demonstrate that all is one Being without a second do not judge, because there is nothing to judge in Oneness. If there is judgment it is dishonest or inconsistent with their Truth, for to judge is to say that you are not Oneness. And to say that you must be confusing yourself as to what you are, believing you are separate.

Honesty

Listen to Mediation Recording.

Jesus gives us another way to look on Honesty, he says in the first paragraph that “Honesty does not apply only to what you say. The term actually means consistency. There is nothing you say that contradicts what you think or do; no thought opposes any other thought; no act belies your word; and no word lacks agreement with another. Such are the truly honest. At no level are they in conflict with themselves”.  He is saying at no level are the teachers of God in conflict with themselves.   Pointing out for us that the demonstrators/teachers of God do not  have a belief in a separate self. “Therefore it is impossible for them to be in conflict with anyone or anything”.  

The teachers of God are realizing that separation is not true.

What Are the Characteristics of God’s Teachers?

Listen to Mediation Recording.

Jesus introduces us to the 10 characteristics of God’s teachers/ demonstrators. The First is Trust which he says, “…is the foundation on which their ability to fulfill their function rests.  Perception is the result of learning. In fact, perception is learning, because cause and effect are never separated. The teachers of God have trust in the world, because they have learned it is not governed by the laws the world made up. It is governed by a power that is in them but not of them. It is this power that keeps all things safe. It is through this power that the teachers of God look on a forgiven world.” 

I’ve also included in this meditation the section on the six stages of the Development of Trust. This is the longest section that we will cover in one day.

What Are the Levels of Teaching?

Listen to Mediation Recording.

In this section Jesus talks about the three levels of teaching/ demonstrating. And he also says, “The teachers of God have no set teaching level. Each teaching-learning situation involves a different relationship at the beginning, although the ultimate goal is always the same; to make of the relationship a holy relationship, in which both can look upon the Son of God as sinless. There is no one from whom a teacher of God cannot learn, so there is no one whom he cannot teach or demonstrate the truth to and for. However, from a practical point of view he cannot meet everyone, nor can everyone find him. Therefore, the plan includes very specific contacts to be made for each teacher of God. There are no accidents in salvation. Those who are to meet will meet, because together they have the potential for a holy relationship. They are ready for each other.”

Who Are God’s Teachers?

Listen to Mediation Recording.

An excerpt from the recording…

“A teacher, a demonstrator, of God is anyone who chooses to be one. ²His qualifications consist solely in this; somehow, somewhere he has made a deliberate choice in which he did not see his interests as apart from someone else’s.  Once he has done that, his road is established and his direction is sure.  A light has entered the darkness. It may be a single light, but that is enough. He has entered an agreement with God even if he does not yet believe in Him. He has become a bringer of salvation. He has become a demonstrator of God.

They come from all over the world. They come from all religions and from no religion. They are the ones who have answered. The Call is universal. It goes on all the time everywhere.”

Jesus introduces us to this book. 

Listen to Mediation Recording.

An excerpt from the meditation recording…

“He says ‘To teach is to demonstrate. And There are only two thought systems, and you demonstrate that you believe one or the other is true all the time. From your demonstration others learn, and so do you.’ He says, ‘The question is not whether you will teach, for in that there is no choice. And the purpose of the course might be said to provide you with a means of choosing what you want to teach on the basis of what you want to learn.’ He says ‘Teaching is but a call to witnesses to attest to what you believe. Teaching is but a call to witness in your daily life, what you want to believe. We are teaching ourselves all the time by the witness that we bear.’ He says, “This is not done by words alone. Any situation must be to you a chance to teach others and yourself what you are, and what they are to you. It’s simple, it’s no more than that, but also never less.’

He says, ‘The curriculum you set up, your life,  is therefore determined exclusively by what you think you are, and what you believe the relationship of others is to you. You are always teaching what you think you are, and what you believe the relationship of others is to you.’ He says, ‘Teaching reinforces what you believe about yourself.’  He says, ‘The self you think is real is what you teach.'”
