…come to your practices with an open mind and an open heart. REVIEW CT Step 49 (MP3)
Read the past six lessons and consider their
meaning and their value. See what influence they have had upon your life. Try
to delve deeper into the messages that they are giving you and the foundation
that they are helping you to build for yourself.
Then turn your attention to the Four Pillars of
your life. Again review your Four Pillars, listening for Knowledge—-listening
to hear if something needs your attention, listening with deeper ears, without
preference, without fear, even without hope. The problem with hope is that it
is a cover for fear. The only real hope that you have is that Knowledge is with
you and that you cannot lose Knowledge. That is true, but beyond that, hope is
simply an adaptation to the existence of fear.
Therefore, come to your practices with an open mind
and an open heart. You are here to learn—- not to demand, not to defend, not to
protect, not to negotiate, but to receive and to learn so that you may be able to give.

Note: If you’ve some interest, but this is the
first time you’ve seen Steps, you should go to the beginning blog post. From here you will learn about Steps to Knowledge
and can begin it on the day that makes sense; then progress as needed. Begin at
the beginning.
If you do know about Steps, but have not done Steps
twice completely, read the related materials, and have a sense of the direction
of this study, you won’t get the experience. The Introduction begins:
“This is the Steps
to Knowledge Continuation Training. It is designed to build upon the Steps
that were learned in Steps to Knowledge to
enable you to experience the grace, the power and the direction of Knowledge in
your life and to become an expression of Knowledge in everything that you do.
If you have completed the book, Steps to
Knowledge, twice through and have followed the instructions as they were
given without altering the curriculum in any way, then you are now ready to
begin this more advanced study”.
If you are an independent student, that is
certainly an option.
Posts here provide a trail that may let you have a virtual companion when and if you want one. One may have to study alone, as I did in the beginning. There are other Steps students blogging their experience and you might find a person more like you as a companion, or use a number of such Steps journeys. There are options as well through the Free School of the New Message.
