Note:  I received an email from a friend in Webster,
NY, who expressed his discouragement at the news of yet more killing … this
time in his own town.  This happened a
few feet from a spot Ty and I stopped at on a bike ride on our summer
tour.  This friend did not ask for
anything.  He was just venting, but I
felt the need for some higher guidance. 
So, I went into meditation and asked what Sanaya had to say …

We wish you to
not be discouraged.  Did you think the
world would end on a certain date (the end of the Mayan calendar)? 
Most likely not.  Did you think
that there would be an increase in consciousness?  Most likely so.  But just as your world did not end abruptly,
the changes in mass consciousness are not abrupt, but gradual.

Yes, it is true,
there is a physical explanation for part of this change.  The alignment of your planets does have a
vibrational effect, but this alignment is also a gradual and ongoing process,
is it not?  You may have expected a
meteor shower, and this did not occur.  Nor
will the change in consciousness be meteoric. 
Your planets move about at a predictable and orderly pace, and so it is
with the increase in consciousness you are experiencing.  Call it a “shift” if you like.

Did you truly
expect all human acts of violence to cease? 
This would be unnatural.  You live
in a world governed by natural law.  We are
not saying that killing and violence is natural.  Not at all. 
We are saying that certain patterns of behavior have been achieved and
set in your reality, and they will not change overnight. 

Have not these
most recent atrocities been the result of mental imbalance?  Anything other than loving thoughts and
actions is the result of imbalance, be it mental, spiritual, emotional, or
physical.  The laws of rhythm and balance
are still in effect.  You are moving
toward greater balance, but you are not there yet.

Focus not on the
atrocities, but on the improvements.  Can
you not now speak of “oneness” and the need for loving-kindness without being
met with blank stares or anger?  This is
evidence of growth.  Look around and
count the blessings.  See the love in
action.  See the growing awareness in
your fellow man of the need for change. 
Embrace the movements for such.

Yes, you have a
long way to go, but be not discouraged.  Stand
for love.  Stand tall when others may
show less than loving responses.  Growth is
ongoing.  Like the movement of your
planets, it does not stop and it does not reverse its path.  It is orderly, and order will prevail, for
Love is ultimately behind it all.

We thank you for
your patience and your dedication to the cause of bringing more light into your
world.  Much needed are you.  Never think anything less.
