Elyon: You have deduced correctly in that the [[attraction]] is the greatest when the need is the greatest for this order, that a [[state]] of [[Light and Life]] and great accomplishment offers little in the way of [[challenge]] and [[service]], and far greater [[service]] and [[challenge]] are required on a world further away from this [[state]]. This is a great [[attraction]] and has its own [[magnetic]] charge, if you will, for a [[variety]] of [[orders]] of [[beings]] who thrive on these [[service]] [[opportunities]] and therefore would flock to [[accommodate]] these conditions more readily than a [[planet]] accomplished in its [[stages]] of [[Light and Life]].

On your world you are used to but one [[magnetic field]] in which your instruments indicate but one direction. Outside the [[influence]] of your magnetic and [[gravitational]] fields, there are numerous [[forces]] to [[attract]], to draw [[universe]] [[personalities]] in various directions, but in the entire [[scheme]] of all [[reality]] there is one [[universal]] pull more [[encompassing]] than all the others and that is the abode and [[will]] and [[desire]] of [[the Father]]. Other [[universes]] and other worlds have their own fields which register [[differently]], and other [[personalities]] have their own interests which seek out their own drawing [[forces]], but all are under the umbrella of the master [[force]] of [[the Father]].

Jonathan: As you head north with [[compass]] in hand, what is it like to stand right over the [[pole]]? Does the needle spin around? I see how [[Paradise]] is that north pole. The far stretches of the [[universe]] are the south pole; I think of [[the Supreme]]. The [[Paradise]] [[gravity]] [[circuits]], the [[mind]] gravity circuits, the [[personality]] gravity circuits[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Foreword#VI._ENERGY_AND_PATTERN] could all be woven in, the drawing [[power]] of [[the Father]], the [[Infinite]] [[I AM]]. The [[omnipresence]] of [[God]] is like standing at the [[north pole]].

Elyon: I [[appreciate]] your imagery and your return of the volley. It is indeed a many layered image to [[think]] of the many [[circuits]] involved even here on your own world, the most obvious [[being]] the [[magnetic]] pole of your [[compass]]. But you are correct that the [[omnipresence]] of [[the Father]] and the direction of your pursuit provide you with an image of all [[encompassment]]. These are fun to [[theorize]] and appropriate to [[visualize]] in that they provide you with some [[idea]] of [[forces]] which are intangible to your [[physical]] [[being]] and yet very real. It is your [[purpose]] to not only [[accept]] these [[forces]] as real but to then seek to [[manipulate]] and align your [[being]] so as to maximize [[effectiveness]] of these [[circuits]] on your being.

Elyon: Thank you. That is what the [[game]] is all about, the [[sharing]]. If you can view a [[random]], scattered image before you, say a [[mass]] of [[humanity]], of people, each one with their own [[individual]] [[purpose]] and their own drive, then picture this same image, this same [[number]] of [[human beings]], all arranged [[together]], all pulling on one long rope. You now see that [[alignment]] and [[purpose]] has [[everything]] to do with the [[difference]] in these pictures. In one picture it is scattered; it is unproductive. In the next image it is [[focused]], [[concentrated]], and the [[power]] is enormous. In both pictures the same [[number]] of [[individuals]] is present, and yet it is not until [[alignment]] and [[focus]] occur that the great [[power]] then occurs.

Jonathan: In The [[Urantia Book]] it says that, while [[preparing]] for [[worship]] on [[Paradise]], sometimes the whole Isle is engulfed in [[spontaneous]] [[worship]].[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_27#27:7._CONDUCTORS_OF_WORSHIP 27:7.7] It [[sounds]] like the [[alignment]] is so strong, why [[prepare]]?!

Elyon: This speaks to the [[ability]] to [[recognize]] and utilize these fields of [[alignment]] which exist as [[reality]] around you and above you. As you [[transcend]] your [[levels]] of [[reality]] you find it easier and easier to [[align]] yourselves because, not only have you honed your own [[individual]] [[alignment]], but the fields that [[surround]] you are more [[evident]] and are stronger still. Therefore your [[individual]] indicators are routinely locked in the same direction.

Evanson (Jonathan): I greet you also today; this is Evanson, and I would like to present an [[idea]] and that is a [[different]] [[perspective]] on [[temporal]] life and [[eternal]] life. We of [[human]] [[origin]] often tend to [[think]] of [[temporal]] life as that [[finite]] duration between [[birth]] and [[death]] and [[eternal]] life as the on-going living of the after [[death]] [[experience]]. In the [[morontia]] [[state]] it is taught that the most important element to any life is your [[connectedness]] to [[the Father]], that really [[temporal]] living is the intermittent [[connection]] between [[the Father]]'s [[presence]] within you and your breaking from that. Once you [[fuse]] you are [[eternally]] [[connected]] with [[the Father]], and like your [[lesson]] on [[magnetism]], if you see yourself as a bee-bee and you [[touch]] your [[Thought Adjuster]] and [[fuse]], you have [[connected]] with the [[magnet]] that at the other end is [[the Father]], Himself, but nonetheless, you are [[eternally]] [[connected]] to [[the Father]] though you have yet a long [[paradise]] [[journey]].[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Ascension_career] This everlasting [[connection]] is your goal until then you will wrestle with the temporary fluctuations. This is the [[temporal]] life where you are [[here]] and only now faced with the [[struggle]] to [[experience]] the [[presence]] of [[God]] continually. I [[assure]] you it will get easier. The [[eternal]] life is that accomplishment.
