No justification for war.

The presence of God is known by many levels of understanding. It is God who always speaks to each of you, to all people. It is God who speaks to all forms of life, to all forms of consciousness. The words of God are not specifically words, but the presence of God can be expressed especially on behalf of human life in words as well as emotions, your awareness of all that exists around you. That awareness is part of how God speaks. 

To you in this gathering, the most appropriate way to speak is through words. Those words in themselves are not sacred, but they are that important in terms of their meaning. Words are representations of meaning. Words in themselves are fallible. Words can be misinterpreted. But for you and for many it is through the word that often one glimpses God’s presence. 

Human beings seek to understand through concrete evidence, but God’s presence cannot be described in concrete form. Nevertheless, it is our intention to use the power of words to convey the importance of a reality that exists far beyond the capability of words to describe. 

It is, of course, true that many human beings sense the presence of God outside of the realm of words through the observation of beauty in whatever form it takes, through the recognition of the interconnectedness of everything. In that interconnectedness is the voice of God. God speaks, therefore, with many different means of understanding. Some can sense God with no words. Others can sense God most profoundly through words, but the use of such words provides a sense of greater concrete evidence of God existing within the world that you know. 

We have alluded often to the reality of nonhuman, knowing beings. These nonhuman life-forms are nourished by an awareness of God that is not based on words. That knowing is achieved by a recognition of a kind of light, a kind of vibrating energy. It is a light not seen with eyes. It is a light that is experienced within. It is a kind of recognition. You might describe it as a series of “aha” moments. You speak in the vernacular of “the light bulb going off,” and you suddenly have an insight that you did not have before. You may experience that insight through words, but other life-forms can experience the same insight without relying on the nebulous and indefinite nature of words. 

When you feel love toward another, it is not always something you can describe in written form. It is rather something you feel. It is just there to be acknowledged, to be embraced. And so it is with many nonhuman life-forms who acknowledge and come to a greater awareness of a Spirit Center because of what is felt. There is a kind of evolution of knowing, an evolution of feeling that leads to greater understanding. 

Sometimes human beings discover an insight that seems to arrive totally unanticipated. No conscious effort was being exercised in search of that insight. It is simply this flash of understanding. That kind of synthesis of experience which leads to understanding is the same kind of synthesis that guides and directs a greater understanding experienced by these nonhuman life-forms. 

As you postulated, some of these life-forms that have an awareness of a Spirit Center do indeed exist on your planet of life, but there are many more life-forms that exist in a physical sense and yet do not pursue their lives on a particular planet or in a particular star system. These physical expressions of energy live in a universe that is different from the universe you are aware of. That universe exists under very different laws, different principles, described in different ways than the physics that you currently perceive to be so necessary. They are physical, but they may be in many cases in a form that would not be recognized through your own scientific observations. 

Your sciences often speak of microrealities and nanotechnology as it tries to deal with these realities. There are sciences that are engaged in by human beings that attempt to uncover the activities of different forms of particles. You speak of quantum theory, quantum mechanics, matter and antimatter, but human science gets it right when much is described as forms of energy. 

Part of what comprises that energy is physical. You often do not perceive light as being physical. What is happening with light? What is happening in the movement of photons? What is happening when one speaks of electrically charged particles? One is really discussing varying kinds of energy. Energy consists of particles. An electron or a proton, neutrinos, neutrons—the list is seemingly endless, but there is within all of those observations the presence of something that is physical. 

When we speak of other knowing life-forms, we speak of other knowing forms of energy. Those forms do not necessarily contain what you would identify as human life. Those forms do not have legs and arms or a head, but they do have a response. They are activated. They are influenced by one another. There is a sense of unity. One could almost say there is a kind of belonging, an identity with similar kinds of energy. These energy-forms, although not human-like, are in their way responsive to the presence of Spirit Center. They exist because God exists. They have a life. There is an awareness. There is a response. There is an impact on other energy-forms. 

When we talk about love, we speak of that concept in very human terms because that truth can be most easily understood in those terms, but the reality of love is really a sense of belonging. It is a recognition of single unity. It is an acknowledgment that all exist for a purpose, but all belong to something much greater. 

When we consider nonhuman, knowing life-forms, in other words life-forms that acknowledge the Spirit Center, there is a love. It is not human love, but it’s an acknowledgment of the equality of all, the necessity of all, the unity of all that exists, and there is an understanding of the power to find what benefits all. That is, of course, what human love is ultimately about. We are talking here of the same basic concepts but described as applying to very different forms of life. 

We have mentioned that there are spirits who serve as guides to human beings who themselves have not experienced human life, but they have experienced what it means to embrace all as belonging. They have experienced a recognition that there is a force that binds all together, and that force is something beyond what they are. That force exists beyond their own vision, so to speak. The lessons that are learned by those guides bring greater awareness and understanding to what we share with each of you, for if there is a single underlying truth that upholds all the teachings of all the guides, regardless of their origin, it is that all are one. All are one. 

The reality of God is important not because you are saying God Is, but rather in understanding that God Is you can begin to embrace the oneness, the equality, the sacredness, the purpose of all. Acknowledging that oneness and equality fully means there is no justification for war. There is no justification for hatred, for jealousy. There is no justification for guilt. All belong because all are part of the singularity that is the creation of God. 

No human being lives truly alone although humans can be lonely. The truth is that nothing exists alone. Whether in human form or not, all belong. All are connected. All are truly equal. Therefore, all are included in the objective of pure love. 

We say that human life can be characterized in part by the progression of becoming more loving. In truth, that is a statement that implies that human life is a process of learning to recognize oneness. You can only fully love when you sense that oneness. If you feel true separation, then the love is weak for it becomes conditional. It becomes judgmental. It fails to embrace the singleness of all. 

In many ways, nonhuman, knowing life-forms are in a particular position to experience that singleness, and that singleness drives the basic direction and pathway of growth and ultimate union with God. Some human beings have experienced lives that are knowing lives and yet not human lives. The souls of some human beings will move on to a greater understanding in nonhuman forms and bring that understanding into focus for others. 

We, who are your guides, are nonhuman, knowing life-forms. We know of the unity of all. We grow in our vision of what that unity truly means, and in the various stages of our growth, we come to a better awareness of the true presence of the Spirit Center, the center of all, the creator of all. We provide guidance for you as knowing life-forms, for we acknowledge fully your unity with us. We acknowledge fully your equality of spirit. We acknowledge fully the color of your energies, the shape of your experiences. We acknowledge your reflections of that brilliant, loving Light that embraces us all.

Amen.
