I am now up-starting in Spokane,

Jack (Gerdean TR): 0802AB, Jack here, hello everybody. It is a great day for me to be able to be here and visit with you all. I don't make too many appearances in the states these days, but I'm happy to be because you are all being introduced to those of my order. I'd like to have the occasion to introduce myself at large to everybody who pays any attention to these transcripts, and say, "Hello, out there".

It has been a true adventure working toward these mysterious and exciting events in your planetary development, those days long gone and those more recent days preparatory to this segment of time wherein you find yourselves bridging the gap between the darkness and the light, between those days when we used to have to ask for permission to bring anybody into the mind circuits as compared to how open the circuits are today. The rush hour traffic on Urantia is incredible. It is a very exciting time even though it is sometimes dangerous; this rush hour traffic seems somewhat like bumper cars. I know no one will get seriously hurt, but there is a lot of jostling around and vying for position. It's to be expected, as you have heard the story; what do you expect? They're humans. Humans are amusing, exasperating, and endearing. I'm glad to be a part of your unfolding.

I guess I'll move over. There are a whole bunch of personalities here this afternoon. In as much as I don't often have a chance to step in and greet folk, I thought I would take the opportunity today. G'day.

Lantarnek (Jonathan): Greetings to each of you.

Imagine Michael's concern upon winding up his bestowal career on this world how his apostles would conduct themselves subsequent to his departure. He knew he had their faith; he knew he had their love in spite of their shortcomings and their incomplete knowledge. He knew they were zealous. They had witnessed in those few years a man among men. They had observed application of spiritual truths in a commonplace life. They had seen relationship with the divine unencumbered by the ornateness of temple and the rigors of ritual and the laws of scripture. They had been instructed to tend to the ailing, to minister to the needy and to feed the hungry souls. They had witnessed his miraculous touch upon the ill. They had even observed the appearances of Michael's celestial associates. All this and still Michael had reservations.

Having had lessons delivered today and having already been given much to think about, I would recognize questions and solicit your comments to be answered by myself or my associates.

Jonathan: There was some concern over the wording of the technique on elevating the eyes while closed. Would you please clarify how that technique should be applied?

Jack: You know your teachers would have me by the ear for talking about 'us and them', which is a no-no in the curriculum. Even so I wasn't born yesterday and I know there are those who find great satisfaction in self-flagellation and in stark displeasure. So, they are the ones who would find your joyousness irritating. It requires effort to lift the mantle of grief and guilt and blame and shame, those things we are trying to outgrow in order to forgive and love and learn compassion and appreciation and joyousness, those things that are representative of the other side of the coin. Those who love the darkness hate the joy we have to offer. But we already know that is only a part of their deluded state of mind. It is a false reality brought about through false prophets who, many years ago, taught the value of doom and gloom.

===Closing===
 
Boo! We have a new agenda. Joy is a result of knowing God, knowing who you are, knowing how you fit, all those good things that you are learning through your applications of spiritual study and actualizing your potential. Joy is also a precious commodity which has a powerful impact. So, while I casually say, "They don't like it" there are those who so long for joy they are quite crazed to see you have it, and they may be dangerous or they may be putty in your hands. The opportunities you have for teaching and preaching, for ministering, are so many and so great it is no wonder you are reluctant to become aware of the possibilities that are presented to you if and when you get into that universe between your ears and allow yourself to see with eyes to see and listen with ears to hear what the universe would have you know and be and do in service to the Supreme.

Jack: I join with you in your petition and appeal to Michael to help us in our joint venture to elevate Urantia to the shrine it deserves to be. I am inspired by the inspiration I seem to have brought today. I could weep for joy, but let's not confuse the issue. Thank you.
