Andrea: “It is here on ‘terra firma’ where, irrespective of your beliefs in oneness with all others and nature, you continue to deal with life and its daily incidences as an individual in a world of individuals. For us Primary Midwayers, and our Secondary Midwayer brothers and sisters, there is a long-ago established viewpoint that, at our spiritual Root Source, we simply remain each other, but for the opportune creation of space and time, or time in space, to give us another reality to experience until we arrive in timeless eternity.
“The concept of unity, of oneness, of being each other and seeing the self as part of a single time-space organism, may seem far-fetched to you – intent on providing for the self and immediate dependents. And yet, in dealing with angelic and other celestial beings, the oneness model is natural to us, perhaps largely because there never was any of your pressing need to provide for physical well-being. In time, during your mansion world sojourn and beyond, there will be a gradual diminishing of fear of shortage of both sustenance and needs.
“Such concerns of worldly origin of having enough, doing enough, and even being enough, will gradually lessen, and the concept of unity will come to the fore and be seen as ever more important – the true ways and the norm of the celestial universe, which will progressively eradicate the ways of the beast – these things presently important for physical survival. Much can be done in your preparing yourselves in readiness for celestial life. Listening to others not just with brain and mind, but heart and soul is one artful way to progress.
“For some, it is known, the contemplation of the reality of time, triggered by the seeming impossibility of déjà vu experiences, can bring greater understanding of spiritual realities. For yet others, the natural ability, or purposeful practice of intentful listening will nourish a wisdom and an appreciation of the feelings, indeed, the very soul, of your brothers and sisters, leaving you with a valuable and positive legacy beyond this life. Beyond terrestrial life you will have greatly enhanced senses. The art of listening will ready you for these.
“It is often suggested, although rarely by me so far, that your earth lives are short, and that in these ‘few hours’ much can be achieved by faith and persistence to pay great dividends in your hereafters. This is Primary Midwayer Andrea, saying Adieu on behalf of all the platoon. You are precious to us.”
George: “Thank you Andrea.”
