This is a time for alertness, flexibility and non-attachment

This is a time that calls for alertness, flexibility and non-attachment. Many of you know this already. It is good to be able to let go of things that are not important. It would be good to ponder this: what is really important to me and what is something I am merely attached to. Look inside at your own feelings, your own sensations as you contemplate the elements of your life. In this way you can experience how your body reacts to the idea of loss, of change. This will help you to be prepared for the changes that are happening, to be able to see clearly what is happening and what you can do.

When you are connected to us you feel this inner clarity, as if the light is shining inside your presence, in your body even. We are here to provide that illumination. Your part is to allow us in, and to release yourself from your attachments to the things that are not necessary.

One way to look at this is to consider how the various things you own could be used differently. You know that you have at our disposal certain tools for communicating with people at long distances. This makes it less necessary for you to travel to where the people are who need your services and for them to come to where you are. It costs almost nothing in terms of dollars to do this, but is very costly to get on an airplane or in a car and travel long distances. That is just one example.

There could be a place for communal living arrangements, as well. Working on relationships would be part of this. People live very separate lives now in America. This is not the way it is done amongst most of the sentient beings of the universe. Barriers between people need to be examined and more openness is needed. This allows better flow of energy, of love.

You know that sitting with a group and connecting together with the Web of Light is a very powerful experience. The group energy is far more than the sum of its parts. And the people get connected in ways they could not imagine in their ordinary state. You cannot foresee the structure of it when you are not connected to the Web of Light. It is this disconnection from all life that is what creates the blindness and the fear. It is part of the old order and that is what is breaking down.

You can problem solve together. This will be a better way for the future than for each person to try to survive on his own, solving the problems that others may have solved.
