| connected understanding of life. The second category, making connections between inner aspects -- problematic aspects, for example | 218 THE EVOLUTIONARY PROCESS |

| This message may help you to make further connections, so that you will eliminate all further obstructions | 236 THE SUPERSTITION OF PESSIMISM |

| the three-dimensional world, wherever this is possible. These connections, as I have often indicated, consist of many | 241 DYNAMICS OF MOVEMENT AND RESISTANCE TO ITS NATURE |

| to go beyond the surface and see deeper connections that reveal the perfect justice of life. In | 249 THE PAIN OF INJUSTICE -- COSMIC RECORDS OF ALL EVENTS, DEEDS, EXPRESSIONS |
| it is truly a question of time. The connections and justice are not immediately visible, but the | 249 THE PAIN OF INJUSTICE -- COSMIC RECORDS OF ALL EVENTS, DEEDS, EXPRESSIONS |
| unrolling of time, in your dimension, makes the connections obvious. Time brings them eventually to the surface | 249 THE PAIN OF INJUSTICE -- COSMIC RECORDS OF ALL EVENTS, DEEDS, EXPRESSIONS |

| of the final judgment is the revealing of connections that show the unutterable beauty of the faultless | 249 THE PAIN OF INJUSTICE -- COSMIC RECORDS OF ALL EVENTS, DEEDS, EXPRESSIONS |

| you resist most, that is, to ascertain the connections between the causes you set in motion and | 249 THE PAIN OF INJUSTICE -- COSMIC RECORDS OF ALL EVENTS, DEEDS, EXPRESSIONS |
