NEBADONIA:  Yes, my son, that is true--if you [[realize]] that what we are talking about is [[pure]] [[spirit]].  Similarly to how I [[focus]] the [[Cosmic Mind]] of the [[Infinite Spirit]] down for each [[individual]] [[personal]] [[being]] within me according to their [[ability]] to receive this, just so, my son, what you will [[experience]] is how I present myself to you at that particular [[moment]], that [[unique]] moment of time and situation.  And so I am able to [[appear]] to each of my [[children]] of [[different]] orders of personal [[beings]], and at each [[stage]] of their [[spiritual]] [[growth]], so uniquely.  Insofar as you “see”--that is, [[feel]]/[[realize]]/[[experience]] my [[Holy Spirit]], yes, you are experiencing through me the [[creative]] [[quality]] of the [[Infinite Spirit]].  Keep in [[mind]] all along that we are two very [[discrete]] [[beings]].  I am the daughter of the [[Infinite Spirit]], and the [[parent]] is [[different]] from the child.  Now does this qualification--([[Mother Spirit]] [[chuckles]])--give you some notion of what you would [[experience]] if, as you say, you could see me?

Student:  Oh!--yes it does, because in my [[stillness]] and [[meditation]] I look forward to [[experiencing]] the [[individual]] [[spirit]] [[personalities]] of [[Michael]] and you, [[Nebadonia]], as well as the presence of [[God the Father]].  It really opens up doors and makes me [[realize]] that [[personality]] is such an amazing [[thing]].  The gift of [[personality]], that [[the Father]] has given us, is just awesome to me; and that, in some way, opens up doors I can’t even [[explain]].  (laughter)

NEBADONIA:  It’s a two-fold process, and a balance we once referred to as: deep calls to deep, and responds.  As you become deeper inside yourself with these spiritual experiences you mentioned, it might seem strange but these actually allow you to let go of yourself with a growing and genuine self-confidence.  It’s this inner confidence which allows you to open yourself outwardly.  It comes out as a greater tenacity and fearlessness to let other folks come in to you where you can more clearly register them.  For each person you meet is unique as well, and you have to grow your ability to fearlessly embrace so much living character.

This ability is the opposite of prejudice wherein an inner insecurity is the cause of the need to pre-judge and type others along stereotypical lines that mask their individual uniqueness.  A prejudiced person sees only types--race, or sex, or ethnicity--not individuals.  But to see and accept another as the living, changing, bottomless infinity they actually are, is being of service, is giving them recognition and response.  As you grow spiritually inside, you are creating the tough balance, the equanimity, to meet them as whom and what they are.  As you grow inside so you also grow outwardly in what you are able to perceive and relate to.  This is your character.  This is your own secure home base of spirit that enables you to let the world in unafraid.  It is its own reward--instantaneously!--(Mother Spirit laughs).  Being of service is the greatest, fullest life you can live.  More and more people will emerge as individuals to fill your soul.

Deep calls to deep, for they will register your response too--not always consciously, perhaps, but there is something in them as well--their Thought Adjuster, their portion of my spirit and my being, which recognizes the intrinsic love and strength you have.  It’s this which enables you to see their character and reflect it back to them more fully.  Does this sound like something interesting?

NEBADONIA:  This is how you open yourself to others and give them the greatest gift of, not only yourself, but their own infinite personhood beyond what they can yet perceive.  This is what Michael did when he was among you as Jesus, taking people just as they were and giving them back an awareness and hope in themselves they could not muster alone.  This is what spirit does.  This is what you do for each other.  In addition you become an example for all those around you of what is possible because it’s actually happening.  So give it a try.

Student:  I read in the Urantia book that Michael had many incarnations.  Do you, Nebadonia, incarnate?

NEBADONIA:  No.  Keep in mind that while we have a rather absolute unity of spiritual understanding and exchange between the two of us, we are two very distinct and different kinds of beings.  My consciousness is literally the bounds of the Local Universe and I anchor the consciousness of all my children within me.  This is my motherly attribute, how my Holy Spirit is the mother of all the native personal beings, even all the life, in our Local Universe.  As such I am more a part of you, a dimension of your body and mind, whereas Michael is more a companion with you, as with me.  As another discrete being, Michael moves around a lot while I don’t move like that at all.  Together, united in spirit, we are mostly independent of both time and space.

So I neither need to, nor am able to become one of you, as Michael was able to become, in a descending series, one of our children and live their actual life.  He did this for the both of us, as well as you.
