Question #2: Do each one of us [[transition]] to the [[mansion worlds]] upon [[death]]?

Monjoronson: Thank you for this question. As your [[Urantia text|most recent]] [[text]] [[illustrates]] for you, this [[progression]] of [[mansion world]] stops is the [[natural]] [[evolutionary]] step to be taken by evolving [[mortals]] of the realm. You might say this is the lesson plan, however with any lesson plan there are [[inherent]] [[exceptions]] and it may well be that, for instance, those on this world who have achieved some [[magnitude]] of [[spiritual]] [[ascension]] may not be required to attend [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_47_-_The_Seven_Mansion_Worlds#47:3_THE_FIRST_MANSION_WORLD mansion world #1] but everyone, every case in this [[universe]] is lovingly, tenderly, ministered to. There is no mandatory wholesale program to which you must adhere. In a very real sense, every [[individual]] tailors their own lesson plan with their own interests and their own pursuits, albeit all are progressing and evolving and [[growing]] at their own pace. So the answer to your question is yes. Thank you and farewell.

Mary: We have several questions and I'm thinking it might be good just to read all three of them and then maybe you could comment and address this general category after hearing them.

Question #4: What is your [[view]] about all the [[work]] done to bring us the [[Urantia Book]], having [http://www.institute.daynal.org/seminars/urantia_seminars.html study groups], just to leave most of them unconnected to the [[progress]] of the [[5th epochal revelation]]?

Question #5: Most in [[Urantia]] group [http://www.institute.daynal.org/seminars/urantia_seminars.html study groups] are not on board with the [[Teaching Mission]] nor are many in the Teaching Mission supportive of the [[Magisterial Mission]]. How has this been allowed to happen?

Question #6: Would the [[Second Coming|return]] of [[Michael]] before the [[Magisterial Mission]] took place on [[Urantia]] somehow [[Change|alter]] and unify the present disarray of [[mortal]] efforts on behalf of the 5th epochal revelation?

Monjoronson: Thank you for these questions. I believe I can [[understand]] your interest and concern over your [[expectations]] not having been met regarding the [[dissemination]] and [[acceptance]] of the [[5th epochal revelation]]. Truly, like you, I recognize the great [[effort]] involved in this compilation of effort and [[wisdom]] of [[truths]] and I recognize the [[energy]] invested in such a project of [[love]] and [[grace]]. Like you, I might share the [[desire]] to [[witness]] even now that such a gift of [[grace]] had been seized and taken up and exalted in its proper, as I might consider or you  might consider, place. But one of the questions refers to how we could allow such a [[thing]] and this borders on [[humor]] for me because I come on the scene decades after the 5th epochal revelation and like you are merely [[interpreting]] all that has been done up to this point by those who have been involved. I am a spectator just as you are in [[observing]] the [[choices]] that all those before us have made in the handling of this.

But my larger [[perspective]] enables me to [[realize]] that it has only been decades, it has only been a [[cosmic]] [[Moment|blink of an eye]] that the [[5th epochal revelation]] has even been in [[existence]]. Clearly I can [[witness]] that there may not have been,  until recently,  enough spiritual interest to spark the flames of [[truth]] contained in the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_92#92:4._THE_GIFT_OF_REVELATION epochal revelation] to burn brightly and light the way for many to find it. I say until recently, because I am privileged enough through my [[perspective]] to witness a great elevation in the [[light]] emanating from this world, [[originating]] from those who are lighting up in [[spirit]]. I am [[hopeful]] that [[tools]] such as have been so lovingly safeguarded will find a new [[wave]] of interest that follows the [[spiritual]] wave which I foresee washing over the [[planet]].

So I [[think]], my friend, perhaps it is a matter of [[perspective]]. For you who see this [[5th epochal revelation]] as languishing and perhaps even retrogressing or failing apart or at least in your [[perception]] failing to rise to its [[potential]], I am aware that as a [[revelation]] it is but a fledgling, it is but an immature bud that will one day be a [[Desert Flower|glorious flower]].
