Let peace be with me today. Continuation Training Step 83


Let peace be with me today. CT Step 83 (MP3)

Let peace be with me today. CT Step 83
There is peace in knowing that you are on the right track. Even if you have much work to do. There is peace in knowing that your life is coming into right order within yourself. There is peace in confirming that your relationship with Knowledge is being honored and furthered. There is peace in knowing that resolution is coming in conflicts and relationships around you.

When you attend to what you know and follow what you know, this gives you inner confirmation. This heals the division within yourself and brings real restitution to your experience. As you advance as a student of Knowledge, your problems will be more and more circumstantial and not personal in nature. You will encounter difficult thresholds along the way, but increasingly you will not be the problem. The Wise are more concerned with negotiating circumstances than they are with negotiating internal difficulties. This is an unparalleled freedom and accomplishment.

As you speak to others today, you will hear how much they do not have this peace. You will see that they are not yet right with themselves and how much work remains for this to be accomplished. Therefore, take time today to experience this peace in your meditation in stillness and in your hourly practice. Look with gratitude upon your life, for it is moving. You are escaping the past. You are leaving the past behind. You are moving into a new life and a new awareness and understanding. The power is in your life, and Grace is abiding with you as you are learning to abide with it

Practice 83:   One 30-minute stillness practice.
                         Contemplation practice.
                         Hourly practice.


Picture:  A rainbow over the mountains on I-70 en route from Salt Lake City to Moab in Utah. For me, the rainbow is a sign of peace.

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
