A: Yes. I am sorry to say that though I [[love]] you deeply I cannot share the weight of your [[Urantia]] life [[experience]] as readily as those who are here with you. You may [[appeal]] to me, to your [[angels]], to [[Michael]], to [[the Father]] and [[receive]] great amounts of [[love]], however the [[mortals]] of [[Urantia]] can provide an [[empathic]] [[experience]] of [[friendship]] that is founded on shared material electro-magnetic life that we cannot give you. Therefore, for the [[trial]] of [[Urantia]] life the burden is better shared with other [[mortals]].

Q: When we are seeking communication with the Thought Adjuster in silent receptivity, how can we - what do we focus on in order to quiet down, what do we try to be aware of?

Q: When we are seeking [[communication]] with the [[Thought Adjuster]] in [[silent]] [[receptivity]], how can we - what do we [[focus]] on in order to [[quiet]] down, what do we try to be [[aware]] of?

A: First, I would recommend time spent in prayer which are not selfish petitions but prayer for more spiritual fruits, higher values, service and fellowship, thanksgiving, worship. Then merely relax and try to attain the peace, which surpasses all understanding. This is not an easy task, (student). Many never achieve a clear enough state to consciously hear the guidance of the Father, however what is more likely is you will receive an impulse feeling to proceed in a certain direction and illumination of good acts or action, and these proddings should be followed. Evaluate the spiritual content and you will have an arrow pointing to the Mystery Monitor. Is that clear?

Q: That's very helpful. Is there something specific we should focus on in order to quiet the chatter of the mind? To achieve the stillness?

A: (S), there are many techniques which you humans engage in. To do this each person is different. There are many paths to the same destination, and I am not able to know which might be best for you. Certainly, quiet time is a must. Many benefit from time spent on a routine basis in communion with the higher nature. Exercising a spiritual program muscle, whichever form it takes, will lead to eventual success and breakthrough. Try out different methods of relaxation and meditation. Reflect spiritual receptivity and decide which works best for you. There is no formula that I can give you. I regret that. But each person must work out their relationship with their indwelling Divinity on their own.
