Opening

Alana : Yes.

Sandy : Welcome, Alana.

Alana : Thank you. Yes, I am here. With Legion, too.

Sandy : Welcome, Legion.

Legion : Thank you.

Sandy : I want to thank you both, as well as Devina, for your participation in the wedding on Sunday. The room was full of light. Devina was sprinkling love on everybody. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

Dialogue

Alana : Yes. We were pleased to accept the invitation. We were pleased to see so many gathered in friendship and love and joy. Yes? So, we will create the heart room together now. Yes? There is some need for the heart room, today. Yes? (Group agreement.) So, open your hearts. Open your minds. The tops of your heads. Breathe. Breathe deeply. Breathe in my love as I blow my love upon you. Open your backs. Allow now, allow Legion’s love to blow through you. Legion’s love. My love. Joining. Blowing in and through you. Allow our love, now. Allow our love to lighten your experience of your bodies. Breathe our love. Deeply. In. Out. In. Out. Open your hearts, now. Lift your minds. Up. Up. Up to the cleansing of God’s love pouring down into your heads, into your bodies. Allow your thoughts now to be washed in the living love of God, Father, Mother, Michael, Nebadonia. So, my beloveds, who would speak first, embraced by the love of the heart room? Step gently in. Know my love, your Legion’s love. Our love is your love. Refreshed. Renewed. Brought to greater strength and courage to love by the heart room. Yes?

Neena : Yes. Thank you.

Alana : Yes. You would speak to me, beloved little one?

Neena : Yes.

Alana : Newness. Newness welcomed. Welcomed by the heart room. All change is welcomed. We shall blow love upon you. You have granted yourself the ability to walk through change with your heart open and your mind trusting. And so, now you may anticipate further change with confidence. Yes?

Neena : Yes.

Alana : Your joy, your love will grow. (Neena speaks, but can not hear on tape.) Yes, beloved, we bring to you our gratitude. (Neena speaks, but can not hear on tape.) Thank you.

And you, Sir Oliver…

Oliver : Yes.

Alana : Would you, beloved, step forth into the heart room.

Oliver : Yes, very much so I would.

Alana : Sitting tall now, yes? In my embrace. Would you allow Legion to speak with you? Yes?

Oliver : Yes, welcome Legion. Two times in one day is almost more than I ever imagined in my life.

Legion : So, my friend, we would assure you that your focus, attending to the steady certainty of our love, is fulfilled as your footsteps follow the pathway you have choosen. Your imagination allowed the freedom to be guided by our love. And so, should you imagine less than our love belonging to you, you would have, as you say, a clue.

Oliver : Yes.

Legion : Thank you. And you, beloved Sandy, do you have a word to share with Legion?

Sandy : Yes, I do. It is a request. I want to put my father in the heart room.

Legion : Yes, beloved.

Sandy : I ask you and Alana to help him to see clearly and to feel loved. He is very lonely right now.

Legion : Yes, beloved. So, shall we place your beloved father in Alana’s arms in the center of the heart room? Yes? (Sandy : Yes.) I lift him now in my strong embrace and place him gently in the arms of Alana. She tenderly blows love upon him. Each of you, blow love upon him. And you, beloved Sandy, will you place your fears in my hands as I reach them before you?

Sandy : Oh, thank you Legion. I know they are old and unnecessary, and they keep popping! I am so grateful for your love.

Legion : Yes, beloved. Old fears. Useful, however, useful to learn. Yes? Useful to learn the discipline of love, which is the discipline of joy.

Sandy : Yes. And all this direct help from you, I am so grateful.

Legion : Yes. Placing those fears in my hands, setting that anxiety aside to be swept away by Alana. Allowing. Allowing. Allowing your beloved to speak my words to you. The old fears never change, but you may blow them away with love. Yes?

Sandy : Yes.

Legion : So, blow love upon your father. You have this opportunity to place love upon your tongue, to fill him with your joy, your celebration of love fulfilled, love growing, love permeating your mind, your home, your welcome of him. Allow love to shape your hearing, your speaking. Wear love around your collar like a sparkling diamond necklace reflecting light, swallowing and eliminating the dark thoughts that trouble your mind. We embrace your father now. We lift him up, up, up into the center of the top of the heart room to allow Michael’s love, the Mother’s love, to pour into him, to ease his pain, to allow his kindness to grow, to give him comfort and joy to be grateful to you and with you. Share the joy of gratitude for being, for father and daughter embraced by love. Thank you.

Sandy : Thank you, Legion, very much.

Alana : Yes, this is Alana. Rest. Rest, each one of you, in the peaceful love that I give to you with great gratitude and joy for all the work you have done, for you have created with me a heart room of strength, beauty, a heart room with light that pours forth far, far, far into your world and seen by the universe. A grateful star of a heart room to join the many yearning stars of love and light burning on your planet, yearning toward each other, connecting, growing, creating love to be shared from the love that is given to you so freely by Father, Mother, God. Thank you.

Sandy : Are you saying, Alana, that this love and light that we create in our heart room together is something that can be seen by others?

Alana : Well, my beloved. As you see the light of your beloved’s smile, the twinkle in his eyes, across a crowded room, as you feel the warmth and joy of your beloved’s love when he steps toward you, so the light and the love of your heart room is seen and felt from far away. It is the connecting time. It is an emanation of love that is known and experienced and inwardly seen from thousands and thousands of miles away. It is a light that is the effect of the heart opening and connecting to the heart and mind and imagination of those opening, like you allowing, allowing their yearning for love to be completed, fulfilled, and to bring joy. Were you to be here in your chair and your beloved to be there in his chair, and you to step into the heart room and see him lifted gently into my arms, so, he would see the light of this love. He would feel the lightness of this love. He may say, “a cloud has passed, the sun has come out and sent its rays through the window,” but the sun was shining before, and the sun continues to shine after, but it is, in that moment of extraordinary awareness of an extraordinary lightness of love that is the light he sees…now…as I hold him in your heart room created by me, by Legion, by Sir Oliver, Sir David, blessed Neena, Nazarina, our little one, and you, and our beloved transmitter, Susan. Yes. Thank you.

Sandy : Thank you. I can rest beautifully in those beautiful images you have just painted

Alana : Yes. Rest peacefully in the heart room. Your beloveds. Your fears. Your doubts. I blow love upon them, always. Thank you.

And my beloved, Sir David, would you speak to me?

David : Hello, my dear beloved Alana.

Alana : Yes.

David : It has been wonderful to have you so close by while my partner was in the city. Both you and Legion. Thank you for your abiding presence, it is wonderful.

Alana : Yes. And your fears. Your doubts. We have blown much love upon them. Yes?

David : Well, I don’t know what my fears and doubts are that you are referring to, except the possibility that I can’t seem to get my rear end sat down and get at lessons and my Jesus story. I have been just able, slightly, to write a few letters to you, my teachers.

Alana : Yes.

David : But I suppose I could get more in the groove here, if things settle down…people getting married at my house and so on…it’s a bit of an interruption….(laughter)

Alana : Yes. But we welcome interruption, yes?

David : Well yes, I believe so…

Alana : We blow love upon them, those interruptions. Yes? It is an opportunity, yes?

David : Yes, yes. Alana, every once in awhile you drop the term “pride of joy.” I still don’t know what that means, at all. Would you be so dispossed to make some comments on that?

Alana : Well, my beloved, were you truly joyful, joyful with the love of God bursting within you, would you not feel the pride of that joy bursting upon you? Like the glorious color of flowers bringing forth in the morning sunshine their light, do you not feel the dancing pride of that beauty? My beloved, you are snaggled by that idea because you understand pride to be the pride of accomplishment, the pride of physical and material gifts. I speak of another pride altogether.

The pride of joy is an experience that flows from God and radiates forth once you have opened your hearts and allowed that love to flow freely without the limitations of your concerns, your conditional concerns, your learned concerns for accomplishment.

Sandy : Excuse me. David, think back to last Sunday (Sandy’s wedding) and the joy that was being expressed all around by everyone. It was made very much made possible by you and Susie opening your home and your hearts to all those people. Did’n’t you feel a certain pride of joy?

Alana : Without thought, my beloved. Without thinking. Yes? That pride of joy, shall I say, radiated from him. Yes?

Sandy : Yes, it did.

David : I…you folks are introducing some very interesting concepts. The first one that took my mind was “the discipline of joy.” The second one was “the humiliation..” wait a minute, “the humility of respect for love.” And now it is this “pride of joy.” I don’t recall a sense of the pride of joy on Sunday…maybe it’s because I can’t discern the difference between the joy of joy and the pride of joy. I just felt, I don’t know, everybody was happy, everybody talked to each other, the day was shining on us, Roger and Sandy were here wanting to join their love together in this marvelous celebration with their friends, and you had promised to be there, and I could feel you teachers encompassing us in your love. I was just joyful. But I never associated that with the notion of pride, quite.

Alana : Yes, my beloved. Again I say, the pride of joy has not thoughts…(David : OK.)…no caressing of the mind or the body or the self, as you call yourselves, no “Hurrah! I did this!” (laughter)

Sandy : Yes! But he must have been conscious of the fact that he was helping to make all this joy possible. And in that, in the giving away of joy, is the pride. Correct?

Alana : It is, as with the freely given love of the heart room, the freely blowing love in the heart room, and without thought, suddenly your fear and your doubt is changed! And, so, with pure joy freely given, freely shared, resembles that beautiful horse galloping across a meadow of flowers in the sunlight, freely…I would not call beloved Sir David a horse! (laughter) however, when he has released his fears, his doubts, his anxieties, his struggle to create the perfect joy, then, beloved, his pure joy flows and all are embraced by this loving joy. All are embraced with the pride of joy that has no limitations, no fears, no doubts. Yes?

David : Yes, thank you.

Alana : Your letters are welcome, beloved. Do not fear. Interruptions are opportunities for learning to take place. We do not grade your dragging of the feet, or the concern you create to put yourself in the seat before the seat is ready. We do not grade you for being human. Your lessons come with learning, can only be written from learning. Do you expect them, all lessons, to be learned at the same pace? No, some lessons are learned quickly, some (defined by your impatience of time) are learned slowly. But my beloved, you have opened your heart and your mind to learn, and so you shall. The important…one moment please…There is no necessity to count the words you have added. It is the value of the learning that flows into your words that is of importance. Beloved, when you write your letters to me, or to your teachers, you open your heart and your mind to value, which will not be lost when once again you return to creating the words of communication of the ideas and the understanding you wish to share with your world. When there is nothing for you to say, it is better to allow the empty spaces to be filled with our love and your learning; for your pages will be filled, and when they are filled they will be filled with the words that carry our love. Yes? You understand?

David : I appreciate very much that response.

Alana : Thank you.

David : May I say more? (Alana : Certainly.) I have three things to say, actually. I want to thank you and Legion and your whole gang for the wonderful, loving experiences that Oliver is sharing with me in terms of his ability, not only to transmit which is almost a by-product as far as I can tell, but that he has opened particularly to being worthy to receive your love, and that transformation in him that I see because of that…I want to thank you. (Alana : Yes.) I want to thank you very much for the love that you have given to him. Thank you. (Alana : Thank you.)

The second thing is, do you have some words today for our beloved transmitter. And the third thing is, if it is possible for Irivina to speak to us today, I would love to hear from her. I don’t know if you know that this is the last day our beloved Neena will be with us for a period of time. This is a special day for her. I just want to acknowledge that, and if possible, I would welcome Irivina.

Oliver : I second that.

Alana : Yes, I would tell your transmitter that the peacefulness in her heart is the fullest surrender to love that she has achieved in her lifetime. We will be with her as we open that place within her that has been growing ever wider, releasing the constrictions that had so many times prevented this peacefullness of heart in environments either unkonwn, or fairly perceived as dangerous. Constrictions that had prevented the ability to speak to and embrace with love those she fairly perceived and assessed as intending her harm. This is a great leap forward for her. To step so freely. We are grateful with her for this change that she has welcomed into her heart. We suggest to her that the many coming lessons of love will have a certain ease to them as we guide her to step forward again and again into this newly peaceful place. As she learns to speak without fear, without doubt, of love, and with love, to those she has recognized as lacking in the knowing of the understanding of the love that is available equally to all and is theirs, so that she also recognizes their intentions were driven by the mind of confusion and fear, so too will she expand her ability to transmit greater love than she presently understands. Thank you.

David : Thank you.

Irivina : Yes, this is Irivina.

David : Welcome.

Neena : Welcome.

Irivina : You wanted me to speak because you would know that I have gladly transformed your beloved friend into one whose love will always be yours, given freely be she here by your side, or far away. Have faith. As she has become so gifted in her ability to allow my touch upon her lips to strike her tongue with the crystal light of my love, so, too. she has become confident to begin to allow the diamond light of my healing love to rest within her body to be given away, and to open her to allow the connection of giving and receiving of healing to occur. And so you, my beloved, her friend, have experienced this connection and you have assisted me in training her. Fear not that her going away will sever this connection, or create an absence of the love that has flowed between you. Nor doubt that the depth of connection that has been created between you, her, the transmitter and me, will dissolve.

David : I am not so worried about that, Irivina. I have confidence that connection is eternal. What I am afraid of…you know Nenny well enough that I’m afraid she is going to go to Italy and fall in love! What I’m afraid of is that I’ll never see her again while I’m still on this earth. That’s the problem. (laughter)

Neena : (laughing) You know me. I’ll come back with him!

Sandy : Yes, come back with a count! (more laughter)

David : (laughing) Excuse me.

Irivina : Yes, indeed, I know her. Yes, she has many lessons laid out before her. And yes, she will walk my path with my heart in her hand and my light upon her tongue. And my beloved, you remain always included in the path I have bestowed upon her. Should you even imagine for a moment that you need to see her, I shall bring her to you in complete understanding in your heart room, in your stillness, in your dreams, and should it be God’s will, I shall, indeed, rush her to you to embrace you once again in your arms.

David : I accept that contract. Thank you kindly.

Closing

Irivina : Meanwhile I trust you to release her fully with your love to go forth and learn lessons of love and healing, so that when she returns you will know her as “the little one, now grown, and known to be so very tall, so great in courage, so expanded in love as to surprise you with the radiance of her joy.”

David : I look forward to that.

Sandy : What a wonderful adventure for you, Neena.

David : Thank you for your visit, Irivina. This is a special occasion, our last Sunday with Nenny. So it was wonderful to have you speak to us. Thank you for your comforting words.

Sandy : We will miss her. But she will be in our hearts…(can’t hear)…

Neena : Thank you.

Alana : This is Alana. Be at peace, my loved ones. All is well. I give you my love, Sir David. I give you my peace, Sir Oliver. I give you my joy, little one. I give you my confidence to speak with love, beloved Sandy. And to beloved Susie, as you call her, is filled with my gratitude, my gratitude of remembering of love pouring into you, resting with you, and flowing through you. Thank you.

David : Thank you. (Oliver : Thank you.) We all accept the benediction of your love. Thank you.
