Hearkening to the Call

      To hearken to the call of the Rainbow Swan is to build an ark for eternal occupancy by God. This vessel is not physical. It is the God-committed portion of one's existence.

      How, you and I wonder, does one construct an ark for inhabitation by God?

      With sincerity as one's foundation of being, we suddenly realize, as we review what we have learned about the peak of the Rainbow Swan. With trust as one's ceiling of being. In childlike innocence.

      As you and I gaze with our inner eyes upon this relationship of oneness-of-being between two realities, one divine and the other mortal, we recognize it as pseudo-expandence; more specifically, endo-estatism, or immanence. And we understand the need to be sincere and trusting, for these two attitudes of reality sharing allow the functional alignment of the two diverse estates that is required for trans-estatism. In accordance with the law of expandent completion, as the Infinite immanends a mortal, that mortal transcends mortality, functioning at the levelate of God.

      Thus you and I recognize a further prerequisite, beyond sincerity and trust, that one must meet in order to be real: a relationship with God.

      A builder can proceed only as commissioned by an architect. One becomes commissioned to build an ark for God by entering into a relationship with God as one's unifier . . . focalate . . . ruler . . . purpose of living . . . total motivation. The reality of this relationship is infinitely tender, the archetype of the father-child bond.

      As the awareness of this innefable bonding penetrates into your consciousness and mine, we gaze back down the processional of the children of light to the point where distance shrinks it into imperceptibility. A wondrous thrill grips us with the dawning realization that countless persons have performed this act of supreme personal consecration through the ages, in incalculable situations of infinitely varied detail.

      You and I ask ourselves in puzzlement: how does one enter into such a relationship with the Infinite?

      And the answer echoes back in our hearts: You speak the binding pact in your own words or thoughts now, as you are. Whatever your state of morality or sin, I will hear. I will cleanse. I will consecrate.

      A relationship requires sincerity on one's part and trust in the other. To enter into a relationship with the Infinite means to give oneself to him irrevocably, unreservedly, and forever. Trust the Infinite. Know that he hears when you speak; he knows your heart; he is changeless and dependable; he desires a relationship with you, his child, now and as you are. Having established a relationship with him, never doubt it or your standing. Follow his guidance as best you can and, with the untroubled trust that is your part of the relationship, leave the rest to him.
