This Week’s Quotation:
We are interested in letting the creative activity of God have meaning on earth. So the spirit of the works must first manifest consistently, so that the atmosphere of heaven may begin to appear in our environment, and appearing, remain. Then, when we let that atmosphere of heaven be a reality in our lives all the time, the conditions for the manifestation of the form of the works is established. The things of heaven cannot grow in the atmosphere of this outer world. If you were to take some living thing of this world, or some plant of nature, and transport it to the moon, it would be unable to live there under those conditions. Neither can the things of heaven live in this outer world under the present conditions of the outer world. We must let the conditions of heaven be established in the outer world. We must let the atmosphere of heaven be consistently manifest. Then the things of heaven can begin to appear. Then the seed can be planted; it can sprout and grow and develop and come to flower and finally to fruitage. But we cannot have the atmosphere of heaven for an hour or two only, and then let it vanish away, and have the fruit, the heavenly fruit, grow and come to maturity.

Manifesting the Atmosphere of Heaven
If the conditions of your inner world were literally a physical environment, what would it look like? Would it be a barren desert, a carefully tended garden, or something in between? Could you imagine a world where the peace, love, and harmony of heaven are not just distant ideals but a tangible reality in our daily lives?
Creating a world that reflects the qualities of heaven begins from within. Yet, as Uranda beautifully describes, the atmosphere of heaven isn’t confined to a distant realm—it’s something we can cultivate here on earth. Manifesting such an atmosphere begins with intentional steps that transform our inner and outer worlds.
With a little bit of attention and energy, it is not too difficult to have experiences of the atmosphere of heaven, but it is another thing entirely to manifest that consistently.
What brings consistency to your experience of the atmosphere of Heaven? To me, this is a dance of divine grace and co-creation that involves aligning with Love’s creative purpose, receiving divine inspiration, consistently expressing heavenly qualities, sustaining an enduring spiritual environment, transforming outer conditions to reflect divine principles, and nurturing the growth of heavenly values until they bear lasting fruit in daily life.
While the strength of that consistency will always be tested by stress, fatigue, or external pressures, one can always find greater empowerment by taking an inner approach to outward transformation.
What Is Attunement?
Attunement is a consciousness practice and an energy medicine practice that leads to personal spiritual regeneration.
What a blessing to live in a Community of people whose grace and love exemplifies what is presented here. This is a place where we know we are loved, where we care for each other deeply and always do our best to share it.
Consistently maintaining a heavenly atmosphere, as you bring out, Oren, is certainly the key to aligning our consciousness, our living and the world for which we are responsible with the ordering power of Love. Expressing the qualities of Divine character in my daily living is a major way by which this essential spiritual work is done.
Yes, Oren. Many thanks. yes, let us bring the atmosphere of Heaven HERE rather than assume it is distant. Loving thanks to you for you the way you both speak and live this heavenly reality. Love, Tom C.
