* Machiventa (Jonathan TR): I welcome you all today, I am Machiventa. I enjoy how well you have come to coordinate that which you have learned and experienced as you attempt to penetrate deeper into the significance of life. You have compounded your many discoveries into a comprehensive perspective, and this is a beneficial outcome, for you are able to maintain your worldly footing even as you travel the skies of spirit.
In your terrestrial activities when you seek to travel you first begin a
preparation, and you spend time selecting items to take with you and packing your bag.
At this stage, though you have gone nowhere physically, in your mind you are already on your journey, even at your destination. In this projection you determine what items you will want when you are there and pack accordingly. You have at times discovered that when you have arrived at your destination you did not think of all things and perhaps left a few wished-for items at home or packed far more than needed. This can bring regret, and it can also cause one to experience the humor of such efforts at preparedness. But when all has run its course and you return home, the quantity and quality of your belongings had only a small impact on the enjoyment of the journey.
As you grow in spirit you do not need to pack any bags to begin, rather, you acquire those traveling materials as you travel.
In the journey of spirit it is at the destination that you can experience that your bags are fully packed, and it is at the destination that you realize that you have everything that you needed and left nothing behind.
There are, however, along the way opportunities to reassess, take inventory of your belongings, for the intervening stages do have differing demands for your growth or upon your growth. The beauty of the spiritual journey is that you can always acquire what you
need as you proceed and leave behind that which is unnecessary. That is the beauty.
However, there is also a potential pitfall, for in the ascent of spirit when one comes to recognize the need for an element of one’s makeup, a quality or trait of one’s being is lacking, or one exists that one wishes to set aside and be done with, there can arise guilt or longing, or the sense of incompetence for not having prepared; or even the shame of having over-prepared and having more than is required, say for instance, many years of academic study to become a preacher.
You have been encouraged by us to be free of your possessions, even those of intellectual construct, even to some extent the paradigm of spirit reality you grasp.
You have been encouraged to think outside the box; you have been encouraged also to enlarge that box to ever greater volume. We encourage you thusly because the destiny of your journey is unfathomable to you at this stage in your ascent, and it is of necessity
you will outgrow much that you not only take with you but that you hold as who you are.
When you climb a rope you pull yourself hand over hand ever upward. At each passing pull you let go of the rope from where you were and take hold of the rope toward where you are going. So you will discard teachings you have once held to and adopt those which apply better to your current level of spiritual unfoldment.
But as you have today discussed the balance of chakras and the harmony of the psychic circles and referred to the interfunctioning of the adjutant mind spirits, the rope upon which you climb must remain integral, that which holds you from the top holds all elements of that rope all the way to the bottom knot. So while you have progressed in
spirit and while you have set aside stages of your growth, they all remain part of the overall makeup of your being. It is this array of experiences which is your beauty and defines God in revelation anew.
We melchizedeks do not train our students as would a military, making all look alike, stand and march alike, and behave in drills alike.
This is a form of oneness, of unity, that applies only to limited endeavors. In spirit training our goal is for a manifold revelation of the absolute God in all the personalities spanning the universe in as many ways as can be expressed at any given point in this unfoldment of the Supreme.
So you look at yourself today and say, “Here I excel and here I am flawed”, and you may ask, “Where may I fix this flaw?” and “How may I apply this beneficial trait?” And this is good. But to berate yourself for a flaw is to ignore the incompleteness of the Supreme Being. You have your fault because this is precisely the position in time/space
reality that you are to be. It is the one hand pulling the rope at this time as you prepare to grasp a higher level. Therefore I encourage you never to regret your frailties. Honestly view them and look toward adjusting them, but accept them as a needed element of your current position in your ascent to Paradise.
I will speak of one more element, one more possession, in your journey heavenward, and that is, you will contain within your traveling bag items that you look at now and wonder if you will ever need them. In the physical realm the efficiency of your travel may require you to discard those items that seem to be irrelevant. In the physical realm
you know that even while under way you can pause and purchase that unneeded item when it becomes needed. In the realm of spirit you are never weighted down by your spiritual possessions; they are weightless.
So you learn and storehouse truth at times which you only faintly comprehend and carry with you in a dormant state, perhaps for many years, even over the course of many ascension lives only to discover at some time the value of that acquisition and the full awakening of its meaning. While it may be tempting, when we say to think outside the
box, to merely discard what you already hold and have come to understanding. We rather encourage you to be wise in foresight and know that even what you possess now, while some may become irrelevant, others may find their time of functioning. Be creative.
I have made announcement that we are stepping into fast forward, and while this is meant to encourage all of you who have waited patiently for a new phase to unfold, it is not meant to ignite in any way a panic, one in the form where you feel where you are unprepared, untrained. That is the purpose of my message today, that you can become prepared as you go and that you have within you already many things you do not recognize as useful which will appear useful at the time when it is appropriate.
The speed at which we travel in this Correcting Time is not of great importance to those of us who are conducting this correcting. It is the value of the changes, the depth at which they anchor and take hold in the human psyche and living behaviors, that is more important. If it takes longer, then so be it, for as Jesus said, the house built upon sand will not stand. So we seek to plant the new paradigms on solid rock. But we recognize ahead a grand boulder, a platform of great stability. This is why I tell you we will be moving at a greater speed.
Those of you who have spent much time coordinating the many elements of your personality, all levels, seeking harmony and an interactivity that is beneficial to all levels and to your whole being, you will be the ones who will assist us in the forward progress.
In closing I say once more, be not concerned of your preparedness for even Jesus told his apostles to be not concerned what to say, for in that hour the spirit will speak. Thank you for hearing me.
* unidentified (Kathy): Many systems are related to the energy flow in your body vehicles. The continuous flow of energy through the system is a contact loop that can effect your ability to interact with other systems. As you can increase the continuous flow of energy through the body you are in a better situation to interact with each other and the contact with other communication such as the angelic network.
* Elyon (Jonathan): Greetings, Elyon here. In the course of evolution on your world the biological life form that you now call the human race developed to the point of the integration of the mind spirits of Mother Spirit, and that has marked the line that denotes you as spirit ascending personalities distinct from your animal encasements.
These mind spirits of Mother Spirit span the universe of Nebadon; yet they exist within your mind as well. These spirits exist in the minds of all other such evolved creatures.
When the adjutant of wisdom is functioning in your mind it is functioning in others likewise; it is not one spirit for you one for another. It is one spirit among all of you. These spirits are shared, and it is this sharing that contributes to abilities in the human being that you might define as a superpower or miraculous. For instance, the
ability to heal through the projection of energy. It is because there is no barrier between you and the other in the realm of spirit that these healings take place.
These mind spirits also assist in your senses of premonition. Michael said that you can exchange your mind for the mind of Christ. And he spoke of his Spirit of Truth.
Again we have upon us another spirit that is communally shared, that causes an integration among personalities that when you acquire and apply yourself in this realm of belonging you have a reach, a form of spirit contact far greater than your physical placement, your coordinates in time and space.
I offer this to encourage you to realize how enormous you are, much larger than your physical forms, and to further implant in your consciousness the sense of belonging, a belonging which transcends your like and dislike for one another, your shared beliefs.
It is, I would say deeper, but perhaps higher level of interconnectedness.
But now I will switch to the spirit of the Father. This spirit is not shared; you have one unique gift and another has another, both of God and as God but distinct, particular. So while you have this broad interconnectivity with all other individuals you have a singular, specific manifestation of the Paradise God right where you are now.
This spirit which is you is manifesting, and nowhere else in all the grand universe will there be found this manifestation.
It is said that God loves all but is also said that God loves each. If you were not worthy of that indwelling you would not have that spirit, but you are worthy. You may look in the mirror on your wall and inventory your plusses and minuses, but that is not the means whereby you are valued by spirit. Just as an artist pursues the results of one’s art, so the growth of your soul. Your inventory will change. The usefulness of brush or knife or other tool will come and go. Not one of these things determines the value of the project undertaken; they’re merely assistants for a time.
You have a dual purpose in life. One, to greater comprehend, to appreciate, and to embrace God and all the implications therefrom: truth, beauty, goodness, reality. But you also, secondly, have the purpose of manifesting.
God dwells within you, and it is perhaps a daunting task to imagine yourself as manifesting God. Do not make the mistake of defining that manifestation as a perfect Paradise revelation. God the Father has chosen to manifest His partial revelation as you, and that is well and good with Him. Trust your divine Indwelling Presence and be
accepting of your human form, your outward vehicle for the manifestation of God, for you are flexible and can adjust and adapt to new levels of being as this interchange, this relationship, deepens, becomes more fully merged one with the other.
I now ask for your feedback, your questions, or your comments, please.
Paul: How is it I can be sure I’m manifesting God’s will when I am in a
circumstance where the material world is confusing? How can I be sure to be finding the “proper” way of manifesting God’s will in sometimes confusing circumstances?
* Elyon: Machiventa spoke of the spiritual journey wherein you can pack you bags as you go. The confusing circumstances you speak of require the enlistment of the energies of your investigative mind to sort and sift and comprehend to make meaning out of the confusion, and then to value the worth of your understanding of the situation from which your understanding springs, and then to make a decision as to your continued engagement or your removal therefrom. This is the will of God functioning; it is the aspect of the human making the ascent to spirit. In this effort spirit reaches further into your human
aspect and assists and even brings about the transformation, and you become more like God in the process.
So, in some circumstances the manifestation of divinity through you may not be the answer of resolution to a problem or a conflict, but it may be the display of the ability to sort through and to discern what is real and then to choose that higher path and, in such choosing, to have an impact upon the confusion to bring clarity.
It is not the Father’s will to make no effort, to turn away in ignorance.
Yes, there may be times when you must turn from a situation because the time is not right and you have no bearing upon the solution. This is not what I speak of. I speak of those incidents wherein you are the one who can bring assistance to minister.
We have taught often that the Father’s will is not the acquirement of specific traits that meet His pleasure, but it is the ability to be engaged fully spiritually, mentally, and physically in your situations of life and to do so with an eye towards growth and towards benevolence, goodwill towards others. If you are engaged thusly the will of God is functioning in your life and you are assisting in bringing about the
revelation of God on earth.
Kathy: Elyon, thank you for that idea of the broad interconnectivity with all individuals as well as our own unique part of God.
* Elyon: You are welcome. While I stressed that such interconnectivity can benefit the individual and the individual can benefit others by way of this interconnectivity, I also purpose to further enhance your sense of belonging to remove isolation and loneliness, for you are all greatly interconnected, far more than you can understand now even in your age of radio and other forms of telecommunication. But I also desired again to stress the importance of your unique presence and your partnership with God, for though you are assisted by others by that interconnectivity, you as well as all others are highly valuable as you are, that you are meaningful; that in the mind of God, in the heart of God, you are desired, and you are promoted; that while you seek to attain God, God is seeking to promote you, to further who you are.
Yes, there are times when the human ego must learn to subjugate itself to the divine and realize it is only one minuscule aspect of the whole. But in your spiritual maturity, when you understand yourself as larger than your ego, then you can humbly accept your importance in your individuality, in your singularity, your distinctness from others.
I will now draw close. Dare I say you have much to live up to, but also you have much that you can live up to. Farewell.
Candace: Machiventa is the permanent (I assume anyway) Planetary Prince and he will not incarnate.(as far as I know anyway). He represents Nebadon
on Earth (Urantia, Shan). Esu is a temporary visible prince, as I have covered before in other works. He will serve a necessary period of time to stabilize and lift up this planet well into Light and Life, maybe 1000 years.
Now regards this statement by Elyon above: But now I will switch to the spirit of the Father. This spirit is not shared; you have one unique gift and another has another, both of God and as God but distinct, particular. So while you have this broad interconnectivity with all other individuals you have a singular, specific manifestation of the Paradise God right where you are now.
This spirit which is you is manifesting, and nowhere else in all the grand universe will there be found this manifestation.
This above statement says everything that is missing in many if not all Earth religions. Christians (and I can't speak for the others, I have insufficient knowledge), believe that God sent his only Begotton Son, to little planet earth. They understand this to mean God has only one Son.
But in fact, by the indwelling of the Divine Father presence in your mind, (called Thought Adjuster, Father Fragment and related terms) you are a Son of God (and this also implies to women, the term is "generic", and not related to the sex of the body), and you are not only a Son of God, YOU ARE AN ONLY BEGOTTON SON OF GOD. The term only begotton son, means no two sons of God are exactly alike or have exactly the same experience. The Father gives you the gift of total individuality from another, and you charter your course. Your purpose as you choose to ascend towards Paradise, and for ever more, is to become LIKE GOD. That is God, the Fathers, First Sources will, THAT YOU BECOME AS HE IS.
Now on my forum, and when people submitted mission statements, I asked that they sign off with I AM THAT I AM. I would like all of you to do that. It means you are a sovereign Son of the Father, persuing and taking responsibility for all that you create. It matters not where you are in the journey. You are responsible for you, yourself and your progress, and all of your choices and your learning from those choices, as detailed above.
The worst thing the Catholic Church ever did, was to make that awful Apostolic Creed, that placed God the Father the outside of the Human Being. The Human that is indwelled with the Father's Spirit is the HIGHEST Manifestation of God. When you find Paradise and the Father you will be hugely great beings. This is NOT something to be taken lightly. This is the greatest teaching that is missing on this plane. Adopt it now!!!! Take care, Candace. I AM THAT I AM
PS Using the term I AM THAT I AM, doesn't mean you are "perfect" yet, just that you take responsibility for all that you are.
PS #2 added later: In the discussion of the mind spirits of Mother Spirit by Elyon above, there are seven mind spirits that are gradually become active in the animal life over the evolution of the planet. These are refered to in the bible as "the 7 spirits of God, like lamps burning before the throne."
Ok, it is easier here to use the UB directly, and so although I own a personal copy, I go to the online one to copy and paste. So from page 402-403 of Paper #36:
The seven adjutant mind-spirits always accompany the Life Carriers to a new planet, but they should not be regarded as entities; they are more like circuits. The spirits of the seven universe adjutants do not function as personalities apart from the universe presence of the Divine Minister; they are in fact a level of consciousness of the Divine Minister and are always subordinate to the action and presence of their creative mother.
We are handicapped for words adequately to designate these seven adjutant mind-spirits. They are ministers of the lower levels of experiential mind, and they may be described, in the order of evolutionary attainment, as follows:
1. The spirit of intuition--quick perception, the primitive physical and inherent reflex instincts, the directional and other self-preservative endowments of all mind creations; the only one of the adjutants to function so largely in the lower orders of animal life and the only one to make extensive functional contact with the nonteachable levels of mechanical mind.
2. The spirit of understanding--the impulse of co-ordination, the spontaneous and apparently automatic association of ideas. This is the gift of the co-ordination of acquired knowledge, the phenomenon of quick reasoning, rapid judgment, and prompt decision.
3. The spirit of courage--the fidelity endowment--in personal beings, the basis of character acquirement and the intellectual root of moral stamina and spiritual bravery. When enlightened by facts and inspired by truth, this becomes the secret of the urge of evolutionary ascension by the channels of intelligent and conscientious self-direction.
4. The spirit of knowledge--the curiosity-mother of adventure and discovery, the scientific spirit; the guide and faithful associate of the spirits of courage and counsel; the urge to direct the endowments of courage into useful and progressive paths of growth.
5. The spirit of counsel--the social urge, the endowment of species co-operation; the ability of will creatures to harmonize with their fellows; the origin of the gregarious instinct among the more lowly creatures.
6. The spirit of worship--the religious impulse, the first differential urge separating mind creatures into the two basic classes of mortal existence. The spirit of worship forever distinguishes the animal of its association from the soulless creatures of mind endowment. Worship is the badge of spiritual-ascension candidacy.
7. The spirit of wisdom--the inherent tendency of all moral creatures towards orderly and progressive evolutionary advancement. This is the highest of the adjutants, the spirit co-ordinator and articulator of the work of all the
Page 403
others. This spirit is the secret of that inborn urge of mind creatures which initiates and maintains the practical and effective program of the ascending scale of existence; that gift of living things which accounts for their inexplicable ability to survive and, in survival, to utilize the co-ordination of all their past experience and present opportunities for the acquisition of all of everything that all of the other six mental ministers can mobilize in the mind of the organism concerned. Wisdom is the acme of intellectual performance. Wisdom is the goal of a purely mental and moral existence.
The adjutant mind-spirits experientially grow, but they never become personal. They evolve in function, and the function of the first five in the animal orders is to a certain extent essential to the function of all seven as human intellect. This animal relationship makes the adjutants more practically effective as human mind; hence animals are to a certain extent indispensable to man's intellectual as well as to his physical evolution.
Candace: These spirits/mind adjutants, are NOT the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit, the more personalized spirit of Mother becomes active after these previous 7 are established. These prepare the total shared mind of the planet for the Holy Spirit, which is also now present on Urantia (earth).
Divine Minister as used in this is Mother Spirit, Mother God, Nebadonia, Creative Spirit etc. specifically of our universe of Nebadon. Here regards this is a comment Nebadonia has made in another teaching mission work, that perhaps maybe add some more color to what the mind spirits/adjutants are. This is from http://abundanthope.net/pages/article_1502.shtml, which is the piece preceeding this one.
* Nebadonia: (thru Jonathan) This is Mother
Spirit. I am also a part of the harmony of all of
us. You look to Michael as the conductor of this
great symphony that is our family of Nebadon, and,
when he indicates, you make your expressions. So
the flow of life moves on by the conductor’s wand.
I am one who tends to the concert hall. I
enhance your expression through reverberations,
the absorptive and the reflective qualities. The
entire environment I can adjust through the means
of my mind spirits and even through the
adjustments of the physical energies. You sit in
your seat and play your tune as you look to
Michael for the course, and I enfold you and
surround you and enhance you at every expression.
Candace again: I hope this foundational work in this piece clarifies some of the Urantia Book teachings. Its a really great book. I advise actually purchasing a copy you can mark up and flip through, which is much more satisfactory than reading 2000 pages online. There are advantages to actually owning some books in hard copy. It is available in several languages. It is not the final nor the complete revelation to planet earth, but it is a major revelation. Be not concerned that it doesn't match every story told on earth, for there are reasons it does not, from decisions made at the time it was given. www.urantia.org
