The Beauty of the lily

The lilies in the field grow wildly and yet ‘Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed as one of these.’ Meaning that the I AM Presence shows infinitely more care for you, who art made in His Image. Of a surety, it is better to become more of that image than not. If you think of the I AM Presence what do you perceive?

Depending on what you perceive as the I AM Presence, different realities will open to you. I’m unsure whether a deeper explanation will shed much Light on this subject, for you need to move on higher and higher before this much makes any more sense to you. There are many and varied aspects of the I AM Presence and it is your understanding of each various level that determines for you what you are able to partake of.

This is something which can only be achieved by practice. This is the same for any piece of information given, it all needs to be put into practice. Let us say you are in kindergarten in a consciousness sense, then it would not be wise to take you up 5 levels before you had mastered probably at least ninety percent of the current level. At which time you would find yourself moving up gradually.

I believe this makes sense to people. Of course when you move up significantly, then you absorb a lot quicker than you do at a lower level. This is all through the benefit of practice. Practice being the lily – what are you able to learn from that? Practice, the seventh level of the KOF lessons – what can you learn from that? There are different exercises given throughout the Teachings and it is up to you to find them.

Look through the various books with an eye for discerning what is hidden behind the words. Just because it appears to your outer mind to be silly, does not mean that it is silly. Many a thing given early and not taken at that time, has delayed many a seeker on the quest. I believe this happens to almost everyone and in some cases you lose quite a few years. One chap decided he had to go and get married and did not return to the Teachings for eighteen years.

Life is like that.
