A universal assembly for true discernment
When you free fall,
you can only observe.
You have no control.
If you feel fear,
free fall into that.
Observe fear, and let it be.
When you are trying to change,
you are not free falling.
You are clinging.
Let it be.
Free fall into freedom.
~From our Holy Spirit

In NTI Ephesians, we learned that we are the creative process and our way of being is creative spirit. In NTI Philippians, we learned the importance of living from our spiritual aspiration, which is also called our motive, purpose, intention and true desire. In NTI Colossians, both NTI Ephesians and NTI Philippians were reviewed and emphasized, plus we saw that our absolute truth is Life, the First Principle of God. Since we are Life, the source of all things, we are also all things that come from Life, including the Second Principle of God (spirit, consciousness), the Third Principle of God (the creative process), and the Fourth Principle of God (form, manifestation.) In fact, we could rename the Four Principles of God as the Four Principles of You.
NTI 1 Thessalonians uses another word to describe what you are: Peace.
It also says that peace is the way to know your Self and your guidance.
NTI 1 Thessalonians describes peace as “gentle gratitude.” It also describes it as “love for all that is.” It’s interesting to contemplate that you are gentle gratitude, and gentle gratitude is the way to know your Self. Likewise, you are love for all that is and love for all that is is the way to know your Self.
To know is to be. ~ Nisargadatta Maharaj
It’s also true that lack of peace is not what you are and lack of peace is not the way to know your Self. When we give believing attention to lack of peace, which is any degree of upset, we choose illusion; we choose not to know our Self.
NTI 1 Thessalonians recommends using every upset as an opportunity to heal the belief that we are what we are not. It also warns us that the ‘I am bad’ belief stimulates denial and repression instead of healing, so we must be willing to transcend the belief ‘I am bad’ each time an upset occurs. By choosing not to believe, “I am bad,” we can look at the upset with peace and achieve “consistent and steady healing.”

This is the meaning of “let go.”
When you are having an experience
that is not communicating God,
you are blocking the experience of God
by holding onto your choice
for another experience.
Let go.
Release that which you are believing.
Do not fear that which you are feeling.
Relax into the experience as it is,
and let go.
When you let go fully
and free fall into an experience without fear,
the experience must pass
because you are no longer
holding it in place.

Please read and contemplate the following commentary in the same way that you read and contemplate the Thought of Awakening. The commentaries are designed to enrich your understanding of the Thoughts of Awakening.
~Commentary on Experience~
How does one choose a different experience? One must understand that experience does not come from form or circumstances within the world. Experience comes from one’s understanding or interpretation of circumstances.
In other words, experience does not come from That Which Is. Experience comes from how one chooses to see that which is in appearance now.
Experience is a temporary manifestation. Experience is never lasting. It is not eternal. But experience can be a communication of the eternal when the eternal is all that is desired to be seen.
When one has an experience that is not communicating the message of eternal love, freedom and gratitude, one must realize that through that which is eternal, one is choosing to see a different manifestation.
Since all manifestations are temporary, it requires only a change in desire in order to see there is a different way to see.

Rev. Jacquelyn Eckert leads this group discussion.
month, we revisited a movie we have seen before, “Peaceful Warrior.” Dan Millman is a gifted young athlete bound for Olympic gold who will do anything to be the best. Driven by success, Dan has got it all: trophies, fast motorcycles, fast girls, and wild parties. But Dan’s world is turned upside down when he meets a mysterious stranger in a gas station who holds the power to tap into new worlds of strength and understanding. The young man discovers that he has much to learn and even more to leave behind in order to master this new vision of greatness.
