The Michaelmas Conference

​The Michaelmas Conference of 2 and 3 October Feet, free of the weight of earth; Hand, formed to beckon was connected to the theme that we have begun for the coming year: the appearance of Christ in the Etheric. Rev. Reingard Knausenberger used the Michaelmas Epistle to reveal the task of Michael in this age. Michael asks that we awaken and shift in this time. The image of Michael. as presented in the Epistle. is one of a dynamic movement. Michael leads us to a new and higher understanding of the Mystery of Golgotha. Our growth and development come only through pushing against a resistance (as muscles are developed in a gym). That which we face in the world is there to offer this resistance. We are told by Christ not to seek the Kingdom of God out there, in the world, because it is within us already. The pandemic we are facing is part of the resistance the world presents. It is asking that we learn to lead ourselves, each one of us individually. “What do I think, and do I lead my thinking irrespective of the thinking in the world?”

​Rev. Michaël Merle led the participants in a process that culminated in words that were then given to another who fashioned them into a poem. 

​​Joy is to be at one
Relationship is to be at one
Peace is to be at one
Harmony is to be at one
Dynamism is to be at one
Recognition is to be at one
Welcome is to be at one
To be at one is to be
Completely at one with HIM
 
 
 
 
Release with soul freedom
Bringing joy and lightness of being
 
Heat warmth from gentleness
Create fulfilment – release!!
 
 
 
 
From the caring, carrying way into …
a new seeing orientation
Now shiny radiant light
I and He one flowing into each other
Love is blossoming into irradiant shining life force
In this eternal flowing my heart is elevated
My soul ordering is ordered.
 
 
​
 
Help me O my Angel
 
To accept the challenge:
to take the path of endurance,
acceptance and surrender
to see the beauty of the troubles world
to use my strength
for inner peace,
for truth enlightening.
 
 
 
Belonging beckoning,
Finding strength
The light of inner divining
Leading to movement
Finding courage
Instilled in my heart
 
 
 
Observing my other self
in new beingness,
hearing afresh
through truth descending.
Then watching
the newborn lightness
The ultimate Presence
becoming manifest
 
… my response
needs to sing
for Joy.
 
 
 
TO THINK OF LEARNING
AS A WAY OF CONSECRATION
TO SELF KNOWLEDGE, AND SACRIFICE
TO PEACE AND THE PATH OF A BODHISATTVA
TO ULTIMATELY FULFIL THE MISSION OF THE DALAI LAMA
BUT MORE, ULTIMATELY WALKING WITH CHRIST
 
 
 
In the world of
      Beaty, Truth and Goodness,
The light of knowledge,
Radiating tolerance
Pours out in the
Pure Relationship of Life towards
the Christ in humanity.
Through transcending
Heartfelt love, revealing
The profound balance of body
      soul and
      mind … in
The Etheric Life Force.
 
 
 
I will touch the truth and journey through the fear and light. Listening to the exchange of fire and water I will find the happiness of the earth in freedom.
 
 
 
 
I stand within myself
Heart knowing all
Complete and whole
Around me, enveloping all
Love-light all pervasive
My being in a stream
of all life, present experience
Gratitude flowing
Knowing I-in-You, You-in-Me
Now and into all future cycles.
