And in those moments or hours when you fancy that as a child you would hang from bowers of trees with flowers—realize that we, too, have swings and fairy gardens and places for children to peekaboo and play hide-and-seek, and waterfalls and fountains and ponds and lilies. And there are swans of light and angels and [[elemental]]s. And therefore, in our gardens and in the surroundings of our retreat, you will find miniature replicas as well as a cross section of life that comes out of the cooperative venture, and I will say adventure, of our experience together in the service of the [[Great White Brotherhood]]. | |||
There are object lessons here and there, not so obvious but nevertheless there for those who bring some experience of life on earth to interplay with the wisdom of our [[mystery school]]. Blessed hearts, how very close are the inner octaves of light—and how much closer many of you are.<ref>Lanello, “The Positioning of the Chelas on the 360 Degrees of the Circle of Life,” {{POWref|24|2|, January 11, 1981}}</ref> | |||

<blockquote>I welcome you, then, to Lanello’s retreat on the Rhine. For we shall hold intense meetings throughout this conference and provide you at inner levels with the intelligence you must have to chart your personal lives and course and to make calls that the course of this nation and many nations shall be for victory, for freedom, for the free-enterprise system, for a solid foundation in God Self-government and a solid foundation in the spiritual path. | <blockquote> | ||

These are wondrous, joyous days. Make the most of them, for one day you will be in temples of light speaking of the many tales, of the many battles and victories and how you were there when the mightiest battle of all was won on planet Earth. | |||
I am your brother. Call to me. I will give you much insight into the day-to-day decisions of this community as well as in your private lives. | |||
Beloved ones, mind your respective governments. Mind them well, and let them not lead the course of the earth in a direction that is not upward toward the light. Thus, my motto, with the Mother’s, is “The only way to go is up!”<ref>K-17, October 6, 1993.</ref> | |||

<blockquote>In our retreat on the Rhine, we have invited seraphic bands to tarry in their ministrations to the earth. And in a special fountain, there the waters are touched by the angels each twenty-four hours. And when you come there, you often go and kneel, and then I bestow the holy water as the sprinkling of the Holy Spirit of our [[Alpha and Omega|Father Alpha, our Mother Omega]], and their sacred-fire emissaries come fresh from the great throne room of the Central Sun. Now I sprinkle you with holy water, sacred fire, dew drops from rose petals in Omega’s garden. | <blockquote> | ||

I am Lanello and to you who have not heard, I send the word: Come to our retreat. It is home away from Camelot and another home away from home till we reunite with the [[Ancient of Days]] and all of our brothers and sisters and march the grand march to the great [[Great Central Sun]].<ref>Lanello, “Light of My Heart Burning in the Lighthouse,” July 4, 1979.</ref> | |||
