Changes

Really is your [[earth]] yet only starting an age of upheaval that is sure to [[change]] thinking throughout subsequent ages. Interest in the [[probability]] of other human worlds is a sort of [[preparation]] for this rethinking, where old borders [[collapse]] and new and higher cultural, religious, and scientific awareness can infuse its potentiality quietly, even [[unconsciously]], throughout the whole world.

[[Religion]] is the first to exhibit [[change]] and motivated awareness expansion. As [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinduism Hindus], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam Moslems], and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity Christians] each struggle for advancing [[political]] [[authority]], our revelation shall shine unto all comers, and those who come shall [[eventually]] lead this world forward in all areas of [[thought]]."

No longer is the prize won upon this earth. There exists nothing here to fight over once your [[understanding]] has advanced. Only is the advancement of the heavenly reign important and only as men freely choose to give up earthly power will it increasingly be spread abroad in the land, the world Urantia.

Here's the question Olfana answered with a lesson on "The Rock in the Water":

QUESTION: I'm having trouble [[understanding]] what I perceive to be contradictory emphasis in books like "[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_and_Health_with_Key_to_the_Scriptures Keys to the Scripture]" and "[[A Course in Miracles]]" with books like the [[Urantia Book]]. On the one hand, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_and_Health_with_Key_to_the_Scriptures Christian Science] and [[ACIM]] seem to emphasize to me a very high level of [[understanding]] of a spiritual world, and seem to denounce the [[reality]] of a materialistic world. Yet [[books]] like [[Kryon]]'s book and the [[UB]] seem to indulge in endless [[speculation]] about [[energy]] forces and [[material]] forces. The involvement that (name) has with the [[healing]] energies, including her involvement with the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flower_essences flower essences] and the [http://www.crucible.org/gem_elixir1.htm gemelixers], imply these are crucial to your [[background]] in [[spiritual evolution]] and her [[understanding]] of [[healing]]. Can you [[clarify]] some of this for me?

OLFANA (after gaining approval to use [[symbolism]] in her explanation): "If you place a rock in water, is it not true that your [[perception]] of the rock can [[change]] when you view it looking downward into the water? And then shift, and [[perceive]] the rock from, let us say, the side of a container that holds this rock and water. Also, if you placed your [[face]] in the water, would you again see the rock from a slightly changed [[perspective]]?

(Answer is affirmative) Then please hold this [[image]] in your mind as we proceed to discuss concepts of the [[body]]. The [[physical]], bio-chemical [[mechanism]], or instrument, you are housed in is now, indeed, like the rock of [[material]] substance. Yet your [[perception]] of this body you inhabit can change depending on your [[perspective]]. Sometimes you feel you are the rock in the water. Yet this is only one [[perspective]]. When you look from outside the cylinder through the water, does not the rock appear [[magnified]], greater than its original image?

Your [[consciousness]] is not only [[connected]] to this [[physical]] [[being]]. Much of your perceptions of your consciousness as limited to this body is [[illusory]], just as the rock appearing [[magnified]] is an illusion of [[light]] [[waves]] affected by the water. Lessons learned from the [[perspective]] of being in the body are a [[necessary]] part of your experience in this lifetime. However, you are, indeed, so much more than what the body appears to limit you to, that teachings such as [[ACIM|the Course]] or the doctrines of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_and_Health_with_Key_to_the_Scriptures Christian Science], [[encourage]] you to expand your perceptions past these body limitations.

The true [[essence]] of the rock is not [[modified]] by these perceptual [[changes]] caused by different [[viewpoints]] of it. Just so, your body is not limited by body [[perceptions]]. Higher [[truths]] [[surrounding]] the complete make-up of your [[being]] are not fully understood or widely taught on [[your planet]]. I might say, you have seen the rock from many different angles in this cylinder of water. But, thus far, you have not reached in and pulled out the rock in order to gaze upon it [[alone]].

The water [[surrounding]] this rock is [[representative]] of the many [[illusions]] or [[beliefs]] that exist in your philosophical [[doctrines]]. [[ACIM]] encourages you, as does the work of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Baker_Eddy Mary Baker Eddy], to see that these illusions can be penetrated and, through [[inspiration]], a clearer [[perspective]]-perception of the true entity that you are, can be [[discovered]].

However, doctrinaire [[interpretations]] that the body has no [[existence]] on the physical plane are also incorrectly stated-[[perceived]]. You cannot deny that one is seeing an aspect of the rock, even when viewed through water. Just so, seeing the body as a [[physical]] [[entity]] has some accuracy. [[Adjustments]] to the vibrational [[manifestation]] of your entity can indeed take place. And physical imbalances do occur. These teachings of such matters as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flower_essences flower essences], [[energy]] transmissions and [[adjustments]] are appropriate to one level of perception of your being. You are not removed from the water yet!

Therefore, within the boundaries of this [[perception]], the body needs to be dealt with. Indeed, the time comes when you are truly released from any limiting [[perceptions]] of your being as connected to a [[physical]] manifestation. But, it is the [[ideal]] which is striven for in [[ACIM]] or the Christian Science teachings. Those who can release themselves from [[illusions]] of [[body]] boundaries can indeed create new perceptions of themselves -- healed perceptions of themselves. But most [[mortals]] need to begin their comprehension of themselves at a level much more connected to the [[physical]] world. In the Course, Jesus says: "If taking a pill allows you to feel less [[anxious]] then, by all means, take the pill." There is much [[truth]] in this teaching.

There is so much coming forth, more will be coming forth in the years ahead. You should select [[disciplines]] and [[philosophies]] that are [[appealing]] to you. [[Explore]] them, build your [[talents]], and your expertise in these areas so that you may [[discuss]] them fully and intelligently.

It is our fond [[hope]] that the whole field of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_medicine alternative medicine] will become part of an all-[[encompassing]] practice of medicine which greatly multiplies the limited and narrow abilities that your [[doctors]] now have through their techniques of [[surgery]] and [[drugs]] that mask [[symptoms]].

So this [[growth]] from within will not be so evident for some time to come in [[institutions]], which can readily hide their [[progress]]. But while the leadership may seek to [[resist]] and hide this progress it will surely overflow from the membership ranks, from those who are concerned, who are quite restless for something better, for new solutions. The [[realization]] that we must take [[responsibility]] for our lives, for turning them over to [[institutions]] has not worked.

We have turned over our [[parenting]] [[responsibilities]] too often to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television televisions] and [[schools]]. We must [[embrace]] our own [[children]] and teach them and [[love]] them at the same time. Our institutions will continue to fail. There will continue to be turmoil. There will be economic failures. There will be mighty [[resistance]] to those who would [[change]] these institutions for they will feel threatened and they will struggle to maintain their [[wealth]] and [[power]].

These are truly times of great [[conflict]], growing conflict, but at the same time a joyous conflict as people begin to rise up in numbers, [[individually]] beginning to take [[responsibility]] for their lives and to cast their lives in a [[spiritual]] framework.

[[Life]] is best [[understood]] when [[perceived]] as like a [[dance]]. Whether you two-step or waltz, or perform a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirouette pirouette], regardless of the [[complexity]] or [[intrigue]] of the movement, the [[process]] of [[learning]], [[coordinating]], and executing the moves remains quite similar.

Therefore, increase the degree of [[patience]] in your [[progress]], the patience of [[action]], which includes [[perseverance]], the patience that is [[motivating]] and [[enduring]], not the patience of lethargy, of unconcern, of "oh well". In every element that makes up your life you will find the same [[process]] occurring multi-dimensionally and cyclically.

We are looking forward to a [[time]] when vast [[changes]] which are beginning now will occur throughout [[the world]], and though there are many differing [[understandings]] in the world concerning [[religion]] and the way of [[God]], it is now of utmost importance to start or increase world wide [[dialogue]] among religious groups.

When you allow us this opportunity you will find that our boundaries of possibilities are increased. When you make it known on a conscious level, on a daily basis, that you accept your privileges and responsibilities as an apostle of Christ Jesus, then you, in essence, open up the gates for our influence to be an open manifestation in your outer life as well as your inner life.

You are entirely only a spiritual expression of the living God. His gift is the wonder of existence. Your gift is realizing the wonder of your existence. The Father acts in you and through you, gradually, perfecting you as is his plan and purpose for you.

Your [[free will]] gift consists in [[accepting]] your selves, your own [[individuality]] and precious uniqueness, which has no duplication, neither [[past]] nor [[future]]. When you accept your selves as you are in this [[moment]], you have also accepted him as an [[integral]] part of your [[self]]. As you [[understand]] this in [[totality]], you will see that there is only one will. Your will and the divine will are one. Then there are no more [[conflicts]].

Your will and the divine will are one. Then there are no more conflicts.

[[Joy]], [[freedom]], [[energy]] is in oneness, in completion, in accord with [[the universe]] and all created beings. This is, in [[fact]], [[self-realization]] as well as the realization of [[heaven]] on [[earth]]. Most of you will have had [[glimpses]] of this [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nirvana nirvanic state]. This wholeness and complete feeling of [[oneness]].

Joy, freedom, energy is in oneness, in completion, in accord with the universe and all created beings. This is, in fact, self-realization as well as the realization of heaven on earth. Most of you will have had glimpses of this nirvanic state. This wholeness and complete feeling of oneness.

[[English]] is a difficult language for this [[expression]]. There is no verb which is applicable for this [[soul]] [[motion]], this [[becoming]] and [[being]] at once. For this is not a statically blissful state. This is a state of movement. Your words [[joy]] and bliss convey a temporary state which one enters and leaves. The true bliss of continual [[self-realization]] and the [[simultaneous]] understanding, which grows continually deeper, and higher and wider, of the divine being who dwells within is an [[action]] [[word]]. Words are limiting and are continually in need of advancing as the human cultural state advances and expands to include higher [[ideals]] and [[concepts]]. Your words will need to be similarly expanded.

The [[local universe]] language is adequate for conveying a number of subtle [[differences]] between spiritual [[states]]. Have [[patience]] with our groping to convey concepts which have outgrown your [[language]]. Also I am not yet allowed to use [[local universe]] terms.
