Anna: Calm and gentle is His voice, the guiding hand within who takes what you give at your best and molds you, forges you to the likeness of an endowed being with purpose and destiny. In your birthing you will awaken to a realm that allows you freedom from restraint.

Anna: [[Calm]] and [[gentle]] is His [[voice]], the [[guiding]] hand within who takes what you give at your best and molds you, forges you to the likeness of an [[endowed]] being with [[purpose]] and [[destiny]]. In your [[birthing]] you will [[awaken]] to a realm that allows you [[freedom]] from restraint.

It is like the pages of a book the life you lead now. It engages you into understanding circumstances without revealing the plot which can be found only when the foreword ends and the story begins.

It is like the pages of a [[book]] the life you lead now. It [[engages]] you into [[understanding]] circumstances without revealing the plot which can be found only when the foreword ends and the [[story]] begins.

Lighten your minds from the burdens held in the material with knowledge that you are simply setting the circumstances of your foreword, and that you will soon begin a tale of epic proportions. How could life be anything but a joy with this on your mind?

Lighten your [[minds]] from the [[burdens]] held in the [[material]] with [[knowledge]] that you are simply setting the circumstances of your foreword, and that you will soon begin a tale of [[epic]] [[proportions]]. How could life be anything but a [[joy]] with this on your [[mind]]?

While important work you do, this does not mean that you must take it as critical. It is not the making of a tragedy but instead the beginning of a grand adventurous, action-packed drama. The happy endings will come in another chapter, but you are the makings that can bring this to light.

I thank you for listening this evening. My name is... Anna.

Evelyn: Welcome and thank you for speaking with us.

Evelyn: Welcome and thank you for speaking with us.

Jonathan: Are you a visiting teacher or are you part of our group?

Jonathan: Are you a [[visiting]] teacher or are you part of our group?

Anna: I always hope but am yet to be placed. It is an opportunity to feel the experience, realizing the nervousness I feel and the nervousness the contact feels with uncertain touches.

Evelyn: Did he convey what you wanted to tell us?

Evelyn: Did he convey what you wanted to tell us?

Anna: Fairly well, yes. It is more of a surface message, but I think you will understand the points. Simply understand that out here is a whole lot of fun, and though we follow patterns, organizing structures, and have annoyances at times as well, there is freedom in knowledge.

Anna: Fairly well, yes. It is more of a [[surface]] [[message]], but I think you will [[understand]] the points. Simply [[understand]] that out here is a whole lot of fun, and though we follow [[patterns]], organizing [[structures]], and have annoyances at times as well, there is [[freedom]] in [[knowledge]].

I would convey to you that what you are seeing and participating in now is good and will grow, but you haven't seen anything yet.

I would convey to you that what you are seeing and [[participating]] in now is [[good]] and will [[grow]], but you haven't seen anything yet.

I, too, have been within the correcting of a planet and understand the pressures and uncertainties you go through. It doesn't need to be as serious as you take it at times. I speak from experience in this, wishing I had known this then.

I, too, have been within the [[correcting]] of a [[planet]] and understand the [[pressures]] and [[uncertainties]] you go through. It doesn't need to be as serious as you take it at times. I speak from [[experience]] in this, wishing I had known this then.

You are molding a unified character between you and your Thought Adjuster. The more you experience and enjoy what you are seeing and feeling and participating in, the more this will influence your growth and movement in the future. Be who you are, but don't fill your head with the pressure of importance.

I could probably stay here now and use up the time because I find I enjoy this process. But to use an expression, I feel I am being tapped on the shoulder.  Thank you.

Elyon: My greetings to you. I am Elyon. I have but a short message that is in regards to our visitor. This will be a process you can come to expect in the near time ahead, for our corp teachers are observing the efforts of your group in the preparation of your gathering of mission adherents. This collective will provide great opportunity for many to gain mutual embrace, teacher and student. This is viewed by us as another significant turning point in the corrective time. Now we observe the reaching by individuals and groups toward us. As we extend ourselves to you, then will occur the coherence of you all into a body capable of moving forward with greater strength than possible now. Welcome, as you do always, teachers who arrive. You do well at making them feel at home. Take note that it is as much a risk and an uncertainty for the new instructors as it is equally a joy and adventure.

Elyon: My greetings to you. I am Elyon. I have but a short [[message]] that is in regards to our [[visitor]]. This will be a [[process]] you can come to [[expect]] in the near time ahead, for our core teachers are [[observing]] the [[efforts]] of your group in the [[preparation]] of your gathering of [[Teaching Mission|mission]] [[adherents]].

Here ends my input. I'm willing to converse freely at your pleasure.

Simeon: Thank you, Elyon. I'd like to thank Anna for coming. I felt like I settled on the name

Simeon: Thank you, Elyon. I'd like to thank Anna for coming. I felt like I settled on the name Anna, though. Could you [[clarify]] this?

Elyon:  Jonathan searches. It is not here. The conveyance of the [[identity]] of the teacher as you have [[discerned]] is not accurate, yet the [[flaw]] is not resting on you. She equally is uncertain how to convey what she calls herself in [[language]] that you use.

 

Elyon:  Jonathan searches. It is not here. The conveyance of the identity of the teacher as you have discerned is not accurate, yet the flaw is not resting on you. She equally is uncertain how to convey what she calls herself in language that you use.

Simeon: I felt I was incorrect. I'd gladly call her Anna until I get her name right.

Simeon: I felt I was incorrect. I'd gladly call her Anna until I get her name right.

Elyon: She welcomes that. Here is an opportunity for you two to continue in your relationship now begun. Hearing such as a name is difficult. Jonathan is searching, and I must say I am not telling him.

Elyon: She welcomes that. Here is an [[opportunity]] for you two to continue in your [[relationship]] now begun. Hearing such as a name is [[difficult]]. Jonathan is searching, and I must say I am not telling him.

Evelyn: Could you comment on [[coincidences]]. I think of it as a coincidence that we were in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1994_Northridge_earthquake L.A. for the earthquake]. I recently read a [[book]] that puts a lot of importance on coincidences, so I [[wonder]] if you could comment on this.

Evelyn: Could you comment on coincidences. I think of it as a coincidence that we were in L.A. for the earthquake. I recently read a book that puts a lot of importance on coincidences, so I wonder if you could comment on this.

Elyon: I will first give [[expression]] regarding the [[word]] [[coincidence]]. Take a look at incident and co-incident.

Elyon: I will first give expression regarding the word coincidence. Take a look at incident and co-incident.

You have experienced in your travel a [[shared]] [[event]] with others that is not directly important to you singly. The event, however, does apply [[leverage]] upon all involved to create a longing to [[understand]] and a need to grapple with implications of such an [[experience]].

You have experienced in your travel a shared event with others that is not directly important to you singly. The event, however, does apply leverage upon all involved to create a longing to understand and a need to grapple with implications of such an experience.

What creates the [[coincidence]] is the activity of your [[Thought Adjuster|Divine Resident]] who is enlarging your [[comprehension]] and activating your [[values]]. There is the point at which you coincide with the larger picture. The element of [[chance]] given to this term by your kind is only due to the lack of [[understanding]] that in all things great and small [[the Father]] is at work uplifting those who will hear and reach and [[attain]] the levels He presents before you.

[[Consider]] that every activity of every [[individual]] is like a radial [[being]], focalizing in our [[Paper 117 - God the Supreme|God Supreme]]. As you view the apparent in your common life, you [[perceive]] what is [[parallel]]. Yet as you view the apparent merger of parallel lines in the distance, you can realize that [[two]] events may not directly affect each other. But when your [[perspective]] seeks understanding, you can draw [[value]] and [[growth]] therefrom.

Has this [[illuminated]] for you this [[phenomenon]]?

Has this illuminated for you this phenomenon?

Evelyn: I'll have to [[read]] this to [[understand]] what you've said.

Evelyn: I'll have to read this to understand what you've said.

Elyon: It is possible to [[speculate]] at great length the [[variables]] that could have [[transpired]] in any [[event]]. Far (more) numerous are they than you could [[imagine]]. I summarize by guiding again that it is in your [[perception]] of the significance, when you [[experience]] that you are able to correlate what goes on about you with where you are moving on your own [[path]]. [[Ponder]] these words. They may come [[clear]] later.

Simeon: On this theme of [[coincidences]], I'm [[curious]] about the times that we have significant events correlate here in the [[teaching mission]]. How often is this a planned occurrence developing, or do we make more of happenings than we should?

Simeon: On this theme of coincidences, I'm curious about the times that we have significant events correlate here in the teaching mission. How often is this a planned occur rence developing, or do we make more of happenings than we should?

Elyon: Yes. We enjoy working alongside you. It is perhaps better to rename this term as a two-incidence and thereby attempt to extract the element of [[chance]] from it and discard it, such that you can [[accept]] that we work alongside you and you in [[cooperation]] with us.

Elyon: Yes. We enjoy working alongside you. It is perhaps better to rename this term as a two-incidence and thereby attempt to extract the element of chance from it and discard it, such that you can accept that we work alongside you and you in cooperation with us.

When you [[perceive]] [[interaction]] it is commonly called [[coincidence]] because it is quirky. It is rather a [[parallel]] of efforts between us and you or others and yourself. I like the word two- incidence.

Daniel: Rather than being anything near [[providential]] it would be more correct to say it is like a [[recognition]] of [[universal unity]], a recognition of common [[events]] in an overall [[unity]]. Is that more like what you're getting at?

Daniel: Rather than being anything near providential it would be more correct to say it is like a recognition of universal unity, a recognition of common events in an overall unity. Is that more like what you're getting at?

Elyon: I am [[happy]] to hear you [[express]] this. This is true. I am amazed for I have long forgotten what it is like to live without as many pieces of the [[puzzle]] as I have now. Yes, it is the [[perception]] of [[unity]] of [[all things]] and our common draw to [[the Father]] It turns [[coincidence]] to . .. I am not able to find a word to redefine this. It is not exactly [[providence]]. I will rest knowing you [[understand]].

Elyon: I am happy to hear you express this. This is true. I am amazed for I have long forgotten what it is like to live without as many pieces of the puzzle as I have now. Yes, it is the perception of unity of all things and our common draw to the Father It turns coincidence to . .. I am not able to find a word to redefine this. It is not exactly providence. I will rest knowing you understand.

Would you have a [[word]] that I may then use?

Would you have a word that I may then use?

Simeon: I was [[thinking]] of the [[Urantia Book]] where it says no unforeseen [[accidents]] occur in the [[cosmos]]. Machinations?

Simeon: I was thinking of the Urantia Book where it says no unforeseen accidents occur in the cosmos. Machinations?

Daniel: I tend to consider [[coincidences]] as not necessarily [[providential]], as [[the Father]] causing all these coincidences to group, but [[leadings]] of our [[seraphim]] to put us at a certain place at a certain time. We don't always follow these leadings

Daniel: I tend to consider coincidences as not necessarily providential, as the Father causing all these coincidences to group, but leadings of our seraphim to put us at a certain place at a certain time. We don't always follow these leadings

Simeon: [[Symmetry]], symmetrical [[patterns]]. That's what I'm thinking.

Simeon: Symmetry, symmetrical patterns. That's what I'm thinking.

Daniel: Like we're brought to a point providentially or coincidentally. Our [[minds]] correlate this [[unity]]. To answer your question, Elyon, no, we don't have a better [[word]].

Daniel: Like we're brought to a point providentially or coincidentally. Our minds correlate this unity. To answer your question, Elyon, no, we don't have a better word.

Evelyn: I like the [[parallel]] image. One track is here, and then there's the [[invisible]] track we don't ever [[touch]]. When we become [[aware]] of it, we think it's the Hand of God. It can happen at any time because the two tracks are parallel. It's just our [[awareness]] that makes it seem a [[miracle]].

Simeon: I just think of it as [[symmetrical]].

Simeon: I just think of it as symmetrical.

Elyon: I have assembled two words: [[coordinated]] [[symmetry]]. It pleases me to hear symmetry used by you. It is in a sense a [[morontia]] [[awareness]], that being the [[mind]] you have is not directly conceivable, therefore your word coincidence arises with the element of [[fortuitous]] [[chance]]. You know all things work for [[good]] in the lives of those who are [[dedicated]] to [[the will of our Father]], thereby everything is in [[coordination]] and [[symmetric]] about that central [[perspective]], thereby [[providence]] and parallelity become [[considerations]].

Again, I find myself [[exhausted]] in the ability to redefine this [[experience]] for you. I have had fun. It is not a coincidence that we [[discussed]] this.

Daniel: The other day Rick and I were speculating on how some may skip one or more of the [[morontia]] worlds. Are there different levels of our [[development]] on [[this planet]] that we may pass from one world to another in the [[human]] sense?

Again, I find myself exhausted in the ability to redefine this experience for you. I have had fun. It is not a coincidence that we discussed this.

Elyon: The provision of the mansion worlds by our Lord [[Michael]] is the [[mercy]] extension gift he provides that allows you to [[attain]] [[the kingdom]] of the mansions, [[morontia life]] that he [[reveals]]. Your [[attainment]] in this living form has a [[parallel]] reality to the [[Mansion Worlds|seven specific spheres]] you refer to . The connection is only a broad major aspect, much like pink is to red, Close but not quite. You will find you are capable of functioning on a numbered world above the first but will find yourself filling in any [[subtle]] aspects not provided here for you to learn. In other [[words]] you are not now on the [[mansion world]] level of being but are approximating this [[status]] with shades, with [[auras]], that you [[compare]].

Daniel: The other day Rick and I were speculating on how some may skip one or more of the morontia worlds. Are there different levels of our development on this planet that we may pass from one world to another in the human sense?

I [[hope]] again I have been helpful and find that the [[questions]] you ask cause me to long for your arrival so that I could show you around. It would make this easier.

Simeon: When [[the rebellion]] occurred and [[the system]] [[circuits]] closed down, did [[ascension]] stop past the system level? Is it true you couldn't ascend past [[Jerusem]] until the [[rebellion]] was over? [[Andon and Fonta]] and the [[four and twenty counselors]] are still here which caused me to [[think]] about this.

Elyon: The provision of the mansion worlds by our Lord Michael is the mercy extension gift he provides that allows you to attain the kingdom of the mansions, morontia life that he reveals. Your attainment in this living form has a parallel reality to the seven specific spheres you refer to . The connection is only a broad major aspect, much like pink is to red, Close but not quite.

In other words you are not now on the mansion world level of being but are approximating this status with shades, with auras, that you compare.

Elyon: One moment please. (Pause) I am not able to verify this [[perception]]. The [[individual]] [[ascension]] can take many twists and turns. Some may have ascended to the [[Norlatiadek]] [[schools]].

I hope again I have been helpful and find that the questions you ask cause me to long for your arrival so that I could show you around. It would make this easier.

[[The system]] is quite populated. Your grand [[humans]] have elected to be in [[Satania]] for reasons of their own [[choosing]]. [[Michael]] certainly had no restrictions upon his completion. I cannot say more. I will [[investigate]], for I have never noticed this [[connection]]. It could be that the [[ascension]] of [[individuals]] is slower than the rebellion duration. I will address this another time. Thank you for a [[project]].

Simeon: When the rebellion occurred and the system circuits closed down, did ascension stop past the system level? Is it true you couldn't ascend past Jerusem until the rebellion was over? Andon and Fonta and the four and twenty counselors are still here which caused me to think about this.

Simeon: Thanks for your comments and I would [[appreciate]] that.

Elyon: One moment please. (Pause) I am not able to verify this perception. The individual ascension can take many twists and turns. Some may have ascended to the Norlatiadek schools.

Elyon: I, too, am [[curious]]. It will be [[intriguing]] to take note. I am not resident in [[Satania]]. My affairs have been mid-[[morontia]] concerning the greater [[connection]] of systems, so, as I am assigned here now with you, I will increase my [[knowledge]]. Thank you.

I will part company and [[encourage]] each of you to apply [[spirit]] [[vision]] to [[discern]] in all your daily events the [[light]], the [[truth]], the will, [[the Father]]. Be [[brave]] in the [[investigations]] and [[insights]] in your everyday [[growth]] and often felt [[drudgery]], for as we all have [[experienced]] this evening, there is much yet to be apprehended, possessed within [[individual]] [[soul]] experience. It is a treat and greatly rewarding.

Go now with the [[peace]] of [[our Father]] upon you. Good night.
