In the first month of this session, we will be studying the first eight chapters of this new Book of Revelation. Focus your study on these chapters of the book, reading and listening to those revelations that interest you and speak to the needs in your life and in the world at this time.

Keep a Study Journal as you go, highlighting the most important passages of this book and noting any specific practices, directives and questions that you would like to engage with during this month.

Also, in your study this month, consider doing a Deep Reading of a single revelation. Bring your experience of this deep reading to the weekly Free School Campfire Chat, whether done alone, out in the world or in nature.

Practice

What do you need to be working on as a student of Knowledge?

During this month, identify a specific teaching, passage, directive or aspect of your studenthood or your Four Pillars that you feel is important for you now to make progress as a man or woman of Knowledge. This could take shape around:

• A passage or directive from one of the revelations that stood out for you;
• A specific practice mentioned in a revelation or one that has come to mind for you;
• Directives or statements of “must” from the revelations;
• A specific project or set of tasks in one of your Pillars that you would initiate or take further both within and beyond this month’s practice.

This is an opportunity to have a fresh engagement with the New Message according to the specific need in your life at this time relative to the present and future world revealed in the New Message. See what stands out to you in The New World book or in any other books of the New Message, and begin to make this a dedicated practice, and/or focused area of change in your daily life.

Bring the results of this dynamic engagement with the New Message to the weekly Free School Campfire Chat.

Begin ‘The Deep Evaluation:’

A core aspect of preparing for the New World and for a life of higher purpose, in general, is to engage in one of the Great Practices of the New Message called The Deep Evaluation. This is an ongoing and deep inquiry into the major aspects of your life: your relationships, work, circumstances, thinking and emotions and how these elements of your life are either supporting you or hindering you, propelling you forward or holding you back from responding to the calling of your life at this time and the need to prepare for the future. This evaluation is fundamentally about relationship — how you are in relationship with the different aspects of your life and experience.

Take the opportunity during this session to begin The Deep Evaluation of your life. Begin with the following passage from The Deep Evaluation as your guide. Go further into the full revelation to gain a deeper insight and direction as your inquiry continues. Attend the weekly Free School Campfire Chat to share your experience of this practice with other students.

The following is just one passage from The Deep Evaluation calling us to this accounting. There are many more questions and perspectives posed in this revelation.

“The great evaluation begins with taking stock of where you are now—how you spend your time, your energy, your focus and your interests.
Where is your life being given away?
What is it being focused upon?
Where is it being assigned?
You only have so much energy in the day, so much time in the day, so much space within your mind to consider things.
Where is that all going now?
What are you doing?
Who are you with?
What are your priorities?
Where are you gaining energy in your life, and where are you losing it?
And to whom are you losing it, and to what are you losing it?
Where do you feel certain, and where do you feel uncertain?
What relationships are you in now that give you a sense of certainty and direction?
And which relationships cloud that certainty or obstruct it completely?

– The Deep Evaluation | Ch. 5 | The Great Waves of Change

Explore the revelation The Deep Evaluation further for new insights and direction in undertaking this evaluation of your life. Begin to realize what this Deep Evaluation is bringing up for you, specifically within the Four Pillars of your life:

• The Pillar of Relationships
• The Pillar of Work
• The Pillar of Health (physical, mental and emotional)
• The Pillar of Spiritual Development

Continue to share your experience of this practice with other students on the weekly Free School Campfire Chat.

Consider the ‘Recommendations for Living in a Great Waves World’:

Read the Recommendations for Living in a Great Waves World and consider which one of these recommendations speaks to you at this time and which one would be something you feel you must begin to move with.

Practice in Steps to Knowledge – The Book of Inner Knowing:

If you are currently studying Steps to Knowledge, continue this study as the foundation of your studenthood. If you are not studying Steps, consider if this is a time for you to begin.

Visioning Practice:

Transport yourself 10 years into the future, into the year 2030. From that future vantage point, look back at your life now and see what you did and did not do and if there is anything you neglected to do that you really needed to. Is there anything you are doing or not doing today that could become a future regret for you?
