===Opening===
 
Gerdean: As a T/R, I just want to tell you what an interesting experience it is, sometimes, at these events, to see the parade of personalities who are here. For instance, Machiventa stopped by, and Father Abraham also is present.

TOMAS: And we appreciate your attendance, as well. This is Tomas, your "handy man and celestial spokesman" as it were. It is an honor to be a part of this Association of Beings which seeks to embrace your consciousness and envelop you in the divine embrace, inculcating you, as it were, into the universe. This naturally requires that you occasionally dissociate yourself from the material in which you are housed, in order for you to perceive and embellish, through choices, that which will become enduring, lasting, eternal.

SEEK THE TRUTH

There is much afoot in the local universe and on your experimental life station, Urantia, of course, although not exclusively; there are other places in the universe also requiring a great deal of administrative and service help. Your sister planets in rebellion, for instance, are engaging in similar unique and augmented assistance -- even those which are not experimental life stations but which are controlled by pattern.

Thoroah: Thank you, Tomas.

HOW HAVE YOU BEEN, AD INFINITUM?
      
TOMAS: I am at your service. I am here to serve you in your ambassadorial efforts to bring light of understanding to your world. How have you been about the Father’s business? How have you seen the Father’s work working through you and with you? Have you seen the Father’s light come alive in the minds of others as a result of your efforts with Him? Has your consciousness of God indwelling others accelerated light and life for Urantia? Have you extended the embrace of the family of God into the arena where you work and play?

Line 79: Line 50:     
I recite poetry as your hungry hearts seek expression. How can I make up for my Self interjecting upon your Self? Come forth and be with me. Show your Self, that we may show others the truth of our being.

Linda: Thank you, Tomas. I had a feeling you wanted us to say something.

   Line 109: Line 80:     
Truth is not cruel. It is elevating. Allow yourself to feel safe in the universe, even as you may become more and more mindful of how vulnerable you are in the material sense, for the fear-mongering of the current global paradigm will be presenting fear as something from which to hide, but the Father will not grow if He is hidden, if you encourage Him to hide. Rather, be of good cheer -- and not in the emotional sense so much as in the spiritual sense ~ that which you know to be true as well as Truth. It is the essential Truth.

EMOTION ASPECT RELATED TO TRUTH
      
Thoroah: Tomas, you mentioned earlier in your "way" moment of . .. ‘do we know the difference between what we know and who we are’ and just then you related to the truth ‘as we know to be the truth’ ~ and intermingled within that is the emotion aspect of everything. And you talked about the emotion as it relates to our feelings and emotions (or what we know), and our emotion as it relates to our spiritual nature.

Line 127: Line 96:     
Trust me when I tell you it is a very big undertaking. From the human perspective it is unimaginably complicated, and overwhelming perhaps, but it will be done because it is in the divine plan. It even transcends my comprehension and I have a far greater perspective than you do. And I tell you this not to indicate how much more I know than you do, or that you are inferior in any way, but rather to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with you in the realization that we do not know all the answers in the universe, but that we will advance together in the search for all that is to be revealed in the experiential adventure ahead, traversing the spheres and the universes into Paradise and then beyond.

WHAT IS ‘BEYOND PARADISE’?
      
Linda: What’s beyond Paradise?
 
Linda: What’s beyond Paradise?
Line 145: Line 112:     
TOMAS: This is the feeling that is a result of your association with the spirit, as compared to your emotions which are a result of your experience with the mind – the mind that has been loaned to you in your life here. When you resurrect with a new mind, your identification with emotions will be those feelings which are a result of the higher mind, the Universal Mind, with its utter cooperation with the Universal Father – that which indwells you – in the completion of your being.

===Closing===
 
TOMAS: We have all treasured our experience here today with you. We have all input our Selves into your psyche ~ through the avenue of your heart ~ into the consciousness of your being ~ for the Father to affect your desire to do His will ~ in such a way as it becomes a part of you ~ as his noble sons and daughters ~ alive and abroad on planet Urantia ~ and the worlds in association ~ with their place in the universe.
