Then the receiver of these declarations begins his or her turn
and, feeling deep love radiating from the innermost self, extends a flower or symbolic
gift and begins the above declarations. The one who made the declarations first must make
a point of switching thoughts and feelings into a deeply appreciative and receptive mode
in order to be deeply conscious of the declarations which are now being made.
Remember to pause whenever you like and strive to more fully understand and commit
yourselves to these profound ideals — these spirit-empowering attunements.
When these declarations, along with additional ones, are shared,
embrace.
As you grow toward higher consciousness, and especially as you
develop in Exercises One through Four, you will find
yourself free! Free to become the person you yearn to be. You will
conquer the old, destructive tendencies. In your life, companionship — negative
companionship — will not be
stronger than your will power.
