Thought Adjuster: “The [[Ta|Divine Presence of the Father]] is a fragment of His absolute [[perfection]]; therefore, although it acquires [[experience]], it does not undergo changes. The Divine Presence goes through two initial stages of functioning: Thought Adjuster and then [[Thought Controller]]. These distinct levels do not refer to [[changes]] in the nature of the Fragment of the Father; rather, they indicate changes in the creature's [[experience]], in the degree of identification that the [[human being]] has achieved with the God within.
At first, the Father's Presence functions as an Adjuster. It constantly works to elevate human [[thoughts]] to spiritual levels. During this time, the human being is at their lowest spiritual level, and the Adjuster begins to send [[signals]], suggestions, and [[inspiration]] to awaken spiritual [[curiosity]] and promote the search for higher [[values]] and [[meanings]].
Once [[the soul]] begins to feel a true 'hunger for [[justice]] and thirst for righteousness,' the Adjuster becomes a Controller. Now the Father's Presence has a more pronounced [[influence]] on the life of the creature under its care. The thoughts of this creature become increasingly elevated and more spiritual. It is then that the Father's Presence has more opportunities to convey the [[truth]] to the human being. The ground is [[fertile]], and the harvest abundant. Humans at this level really begin to [[manifest]] some traits of their true self. Indeed, now the creature begins to resemble its [[Creator]] a bit and is seriously dedicated to the task of [[understanding]] and [[doing His will]].
A little further along the spiritual career, the human being begins to [[nurture]] the [[desire]] to be like their Heavenly Father. For these creatures, God ceases to be a mysterious, distant, and incomprehensible [[being]] and becomes [[the Father]] of [[love]], [[goodness]], [[wisdom]], and [[mercy]]. God is no longer a sovereign to be appeased but rather the personal Father of the creature, a loving Father who awakens tender [[feelings]] of [[loyalty]] and [[affection]] in His mortal child. Therefore, now the human being wishes to [[reciprocate]] the great love they have discovered in their experience and [[becomes]] an active participant in the development of [[reality]], a co-creator with the Father, a true universal [[citizen]].
It is at this level that the differences between the Father's Divine Presence and the human being begin to disappear. The [[material mind]] is completely harmonizing with the spiritual mind, becoming a single [[entity]]. Once this [[process]] is completed and there are no [[doubts]] or reservations on the part of the creature in accepting the Creator's [[plan]] for their life and for the universe, the creature will experience [[fusion]] with their Creator and a new life filled with [[truth, beauty, and goodness]] will begin its eternal career in the service of the highest conceivable [[ideals]]—the Father's will of love.”
