Your [[focus]] in this dispensation, yes, has been as you say, the defense of this [[text]], its independence from any [[religion]] about it, and so you [[wonder]], is it our purpose in the Teaching Mission to build a ‘religious community’? My child, it is our [[purpose]] to build within you the [[experience]] of the [[community]] of [[creation]] that is composed in [[love]], [[illumined]] by the [[light]] of [[our Father]], and transmitted according to his will. In this dispensation whose text you continue to serve, there is the provision for the correction of this damaging [[thought]] that you and your fellows are estranged from the larger community in which you dwell.

A ‘religious community’ you say? Not as conceived by your world’s understanding of this, no, because it is the [religion of spirit], the experience of this gift of spirit which we build, build upon, allowing others to do likewise, this progressive construction has been unfolding upon your world since the beginning. You know well the designs of the previous stages of its cultivation. Within the stage of this dispensation, yes, there is an objective; there is a plan. I have spoken of the [logistics] of our plan of establishing contact points throughout your world with this [[Teacher Corps|Corps of Teachers]] authorized for service by [[Michael]] to assist in the realization of the connection that you and your fellows have within you. Some will build temples, yes, others will sing songs; you have spoken of this well, knowing that there will be many responses to this gift we bring, but the [[community]] we would build is a [[civilization]] growing in health upon your world, drawing forth potentials of all your peoples in service to this emerging [[identity]] as a [[unique]] [[culture]] within creation, and you know well the unique pathways followed by [[Urantia]].

Eventually, yes, there will be geographic centers identified in relation to a physical site. You should not however concern yourself with this construction. Too often when there is the realization of contact, the [[human]] goes forth to build a [[shrine]]. You would do well to [[focus]] your efforts at discovering this shrine, if you will, that is already built within you. If so, you will find that all other [[material]]s needed will find themselves in the course of your mortal living being constructed around you. No, I would not divert your [[focus]], I would enlarge it and in regards to your [[attunement]] with [[our Father]], I would enhance it.

We have a touched upon a few of your questions.  

We have a touched upon a few of your questions.  

 

And what of the [[physical cosmology]] of your world, the barriers it presents along with its opportunities for engagement and enlargement as you have seen presented to you earlier? This follows the first, for all of this creation, [[pattern]], instruction is within you. When [[astronomers]] stare into the starry realms studying the dispersion of light they view the outward patterns of this creation that is already within them. So it is with [[matter]], its study by [[science]] at every level is inescapably linked to the probings of [[spirit]] within you.

And what impediments are here in this place for the focus upon attunement? The impediment is nothing but your own growth, your own path to walk. It is not an impediment, it is a provision for you to come and join us in this wondrous service of [[adventure]] and [[discovery]]. You do well, you are well, the well is within you. The well of [[light and life]] is the spring surging from within you, this experience of expression into which you have dived, splashing about, frolicking, even with your fellows. Give yourself this joy.

And what of the [[book]] you say that you have seen opened in the field of [[war]] upon this world? Now your [[mind]] would like to think it is [[Urantia Book|the book]], that text you have committed yourself to learning, and as you say given to its defense, the independence of it from the religions about it, but is much more.  Yes, the book you have seen is the book of life opened to your world in the midst of its battles and its glory [[silence]]s the guns. It is the glory of God unfolding in your midst.

You would ask the [[meaning]] of the promised Son speaking to you preparing your [[heart]] for his coming, urging you to recognize that you walk with him even now in [[spirit]]? Where will you see him, upon [[Urantia]] or from the [[Morontia Worlds]]? I cannot say; it is yet to be revealed. You hold the answer within you.

And the provision for your world’s [[culture]] in this time of transition? You know already the safeguards against profound discontinuities, the breakdown in transition from one level to another is provided by [[our Father]] in and through the contacts of the [planetary government]. The [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_114#114:6._THE_MASTER_SERAPHIM_OF_PLANETARY_SUPERVISION master seraphim] enjoining the work of mortals in the tasks of building this culture of creation. Yes, you are right, yes this that you have seen, the [[currency]] of Michael’s government, the means of exchange assuming a value upon your world that would displace by comparison the value of those currencies of the nations of the world. What currency could possibly measure up to the standards of that currency that is Michael’s love moving within you and amongst you given freely, receiving ever more as you share this with others. The spiritual [[economy]] will find its [[reflection]] in the economy of your world. It is for this reason that this provision has been made to give you and others, as many as will come, this gift of his love that is in [[truth]] our treasure.
