"God’s Teachers have delivered messages to individuals throughout history." [1]
"In the Greater Community, Life Force has been harnessed successfully by individuals and small groups of individuals who serve a greater network of the Wise. This network is called the Harim." [2]
"Humanity is endowed with a great spirituality, and this has been kept alive through the centuries by the presence of the Unseen Ones, the Angels of the Creator, and by the revelation, the expression and the contribution of many inspired individuals. Here human religion has played a fundamental role despite its many errors. It has paved the way for a new revelation, a new testament, a new expression of human divinity and a new application and meaning for human wisdom."[3]
"Upon leaving this life, those few individuals who attained seeming perfection find themselves at a new beginning.Yet they need not be here any longer. Instead of transcending their humanity, they must now encounter the identities of the universe. For this they will need great assistance and exposure." [4]
"Those who experience God in the Greater Community and those who can transmit God in the Greater Community represent individuals who have transcended the boundaries of their own racial heritage and intellectual capacity. They have become universal in their thinking. They see what others cannot see, and they know what others cannot know." [5]
"How are great things done in the world? They are never done by individuals. Greatness always happens because something greater is poured through the individual. It is like a fountain pen: It is not the tip but the vessel that holds all of the ink. In the world you are like the tip touching the paper, but it is because you have a greater vessel to pour through you that you can provide something uncommon, important and lasting here." [6]
"How few people in the world know that they are here on a mission and can leave that mission undefined and unexplained and yet support it wholeheartedly nonetheless. How few people can give themselves to something that is known and urgent but that seems inexplicable and beyond description. How rare are these individuals, and yet how important they are for the advancement of the world." [7] "Many people will not accept help, and so they must be given gifts without knowing where the gifts come from. Their efforts, if they are truly motivated, will bring them into true relationship anyway.They will realize that what they have done was the product of relationship and not the product of an individual, for individuals do not accomplish anything. There is no individual creativity in the universe. Creativity is a natural by-product of relationship, whether it is relationship you see or don’t see." [8]
"Their gift, which is now slowly emerging within their own awareness, must be protected and safeguarded and given with great specificity to certain individuals at certain times. This requires tremendous restraint, for each person is eager for power and control to offset his or her sense of insecurity in physical life. Ambition exists within each person. Within the student of Knowledge, it must be discovered and arrested in all of its manifestations." [2]
The Vitality of the Inspired Individual
"Recognize this idea, please:The individuals in this world, and in other worlds as well, who have been major contributors to their people were not wasting their vitality in meaningless pursuits.They were drawing upon all their resources for the tasks at hand. They were not casual about anything. Life was too vital for them. It is this vitality you miss. It is this vitality that your Knowledge contains for you.Yet you must seek for it in your current activities." [1]
"The identity that God created is hidden and must be discovered. As it is discovered, it will dissolve all other identities within you.Your identity will be experienced by carrying out your purpose because identity is life in action. It is experiencing yourself living a life that is vital, essential and real. It is observing the results of your actions and the relationships that are developed as a result, for who God created in you is not an individual; it is part of a greater fabric." [9]
Revelation Given Through One Individual
"Let us now begin to learn a new way and to experience together the new revelation of the Creator. We have come to the world for this purpose. We represent spirituality in the Greater Community.We have selected one individual to be our speaker for this great purpose and mission. Together with him, we are able to introduce to you a Greater Community Way of Knowledge and to express to you in many ways and in many areas of application the meaning and the necessity of learning greater Wisdom, Wisdom from the Greater Community." [3]
Mutually Inspired Individuals
"Individuals come to find their place with you. There is recognition rather than attraction.There is peace rather than frantic stimulation.There is confirmation in being together.You still have personalities and there are difficulties, conflicts, and so forth because personalities are like that.They have their own inherent discomforts, like your body which has its aches and pains." [1]
