Changes

It is most important as you go forward working with [[celestials]] and [[angels]] that you see this as a larger [[community]] that is developing on [[your planet]]. This community is the extended community of [[mankind]]. You have friends who are always present, [[wisdom]] that is always available, and [[guidance]] that is always there, for your hand when you reach out. Yes, there is philosophy to guide you, to help you think through these issues in larger terms. Whatever you have [[thought]] of, the [[difficulties]] you have engaged in your life, whether personal or societal, usually have occurred on other planets as well, particularly those that were in [[quarantine]] or other [[experimental planets]]. The solutions are there --when one is in the contact of larger spirit, with [[Thought Adjusters]], with the beings of God's legions of light, one would not commit these [[crimes]].

It is the larger community to which you are now [[becoming]] a part, that is why we are here, that is why Daniel is here to [[engage]] you, to enfold you, to invite you to [[participate]]. And though you may not hear as Daniel hears or other [[individuals]] hear, you can be a very effective part of this. There are individuals in the [[Teaching Mission]] who have been a part of the program for almost ten years and they still do not converse verbally with their [[Thought Adjuster]] or their [[Guardian Angel]] or Celestial Teacher. This does not indicate any wrongdoing or lesser [[status]] on your part. It is a [[function]] of mind action, sometimes due to your [[training]], your environment, the way you were raised and brought up. We wish you to be of good cheer. We know that many people have lost loved ones and many millions are affected personally by the outcome of the [[developments]] that occurred this week in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_City New York]. See this tragedy as an [[opportunity]] that will shake the firm blocks of [[culture]] in leaps so that they are loosened, so that new leaps can be formed, new [[associations]] can develop and greater [[peace]] be enhanced in this world.

This is God's [[love]] in action to bring about greater [[good]] through [[mankind]]'s tragedies and despicable acts upon each other. Whether in small part or large, this can be done, even in your [[personal]] life, even with you personally. Those small [[tragedies]] of your own can be changed and delivered to you in greater form, for greater [[wisdom]], [[insight]], self-guidance and the contribution of your energies in [[service]] to others. So with this preliminary message this afternoon I will close so that you may get back to your [[agenda]]. I wish to speak with you again before you close. Now, do you have any [[questions]] pertaining to anything that I have said?

Jim A: Part of what helped me with the [[tragedy]] was that I had read somewhere that I could turn this over to God, and it will turn out that all things will work out to [[good]]. That's what you were just speaking of? (Yes.)

RAYSON: When one delivers something to God to take [[care]] of, then one must release it of course. It is our [[wish]], and hopefully yours too that the [[leaders]] of your country who form [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_policy foreign policy] decisions for action will be [[guided]] to make decisions which result in higher outcomes. We know that these harmful elements will probably be destroyed on [[your planet]] by your national interests. This is not of our [[participation]] nor our doing. Yet we know that in this [[trauma]], this [[terror]], that cleansing of the [[evil]] elements is [[necessary]]. These are societal issues, ones which we do not form, ones which we do not deliberate for an outcome.

Roxanne: Rayson, how is it handled when one person [[violates]] so many other [[free will]]s? Is there ever any [[intervention]] in such a case?

Jill: We pray that our [[leaders]] are guided. Is there any specific additional [[vision]] that they are given?

Jill: We pray that our [[leaders]] are guided. Is there any specific additional [[vision]] that they are given?

RAYSON: Yes, certainly. As was [[discussed]] earlier in a prior session, the [[Corps of Destiny]] upon your planet is occupied by [[individuals]] who are unknown [[participants]] of that corps. There are those who are within the higher [[echelons]] of your [[governmental]] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_minister Foreign Service] process who are part of this corps. We work closely with them, in providing them with [[visions]] of [[options]]. In this time of great [[difficulty]], you may think that there is just 'us' against 'them', so to speak, but actually this time offers the broadest [[spectrum]] of all actions, or all options that a leader can take. In this situation where it is so lopsided, where the world has sided with your country, all the options are available to be exercised. But once those actions become solidified and acted upon, then the [[choices]] become narrower.

But once those actions become solidified and acted upon, then the [[choices]] become narrower.

So now is the time for [[individuals]] such as yourselves to [[pray]] for your leaders to see a wider spectrum of [[choices]]. This is the time to exercise the [[divine]] outworking of God's will in your society through the prayer process, through visualizing the options. Even if all you see in your mind's eye is a huge blackboard the size of a football field, filled with options for your leader to take, written in hand-sized letters, you will find that there are thousands of options. Does this answer your question? (Yes.)

Jim S: You spoke of the [[Corps of Destiny]]--I imagine that in this corps that is now functioning, there are great numbers of human [[participants]].(Inaudible)...is this a normal thing? (Inaudible….)

RAYSON: Yes, certainly it is. There are--where to begin! There are [[individuals]] who are [[conscious]] of a higher need to [[perceive]] in the direction of stabilizing and normalizing your [[civilizations]], [[cultures]] and [[nations]]. They are conscious of broader views than are given to them by their [[governments]] or through their [[training]]. They feel exceptional; they feel perhaps outside, they see themselves outside, not necessarily above, but outside the [[normal]], narrower pathway of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_policy public policy]. They may not be aware that they are part of [[Reserve Corps|the Corps]].

They may not be aware that they are part of [[Reserve Corps|the Corps]].

You see, those who have read the [[Urantia Book]] and are aware of the [[Corps of Destiny]] are actually very few on your planet, less than 1% of your human [[population]]. So most are unaware that they are part of the Corps. Even those who read the Urantia Book often times [[fantasize]] about being part of the Corps of Destiny for your planet, whereas others wish they were but deny the [[possibility]]--as they do not feel they are exceptional. And truly, one does not know that they are part of the Corps until exceptional situations arise. Take for instance the [[leaders]] who come forward in [[World War I]]: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winston_Churchill Winston Churchill] is a primary example. He was a mediocre [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statesman statesman] who rose to the occasion, who filled the position in great [[profound]] capacity. There were those in your nation too and in other nations as well. Individuals may be [[conscious]] of this, or they may not. They see a higher [[path]], they see further choices, they see a grander [[vision]] and they pursue it.

Answering your question on another level, yes there are more [[participants]] now than ever before. Let us take [[history]] as a [[perspective]] of [[probability]]. You may speculate about the [[future]]. If you were an [[actuary]] working for an insurance company you would [[predict]] certain [[probabilities]] of outcomes. So you would have this ability to look into the future, so to speak. You would know what would come about. On the side of God and the formation of [[Thought Adjusters]] and the arrival of Thought Adjusters in the mortal individuals, these plans are not surmised, but actually [[measured]] and measurable. Even before the individual is [[born]]. Some hints of this are given in the [[Urantia Book]], which you may recall. So there is a need, there is an awareness, that within some [[mechanism]], which we are unaware of, that provides for exceptional individuals to arrive and to [[participate]] in exceptional situations. And this is how exceptional results are achieved. It is the [[cooperation]] between the developing soul in the individual and their plan of life, which is able to [[manifest]] exceptional results in your [[society]]. Some never do come to this [[service]] but who have waited, and waited and [[opportunity]] passes them by, yet they are there. This is the [[Reserve Corps]], so to speak. I have gone far afield of answering your question. I hope I have not caused further [[confusion]].

Jim A.: In attempting to [[communicate]], I've clearly [[received]] a word or two here and there, and it seems that as my [[mind]] attempts to [[focus]] on that, it shuts everything down. Is that what is called a 'blockage? Or, am I doing that?

RAYSON: Yes, you are doing that. What you may want to see is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tickertape tickertape] that is coming through at all times. Does the ticker tape stop when you look at it and note the quote of stocks? No, it does not, it continues to [[proceed]]. And so when you stop at the stop you are interested in, you stop. But were you to release that, let that go, and just be an [[observer]] without drawing [[judgment]], or estimation or [[opinion]] about what you are seeing, then you would see the continuum [[flow]]. The question you might ask then is what's next? It's like watching a connected montage, where one frame develops into another, into another, into another. And if you stop at one, you see part of the [[picture]], but if you continue seeing all of the pictures then you see the movement that is involved and have a much larger [[perspective]] of what you saw in the first place.

Jim A.: I see [[visions]] all the time, scenes, but these are not verbal. At other times I'll hear a couple of [[words]], a phrase and then when I try to get more, it stops.

RAYSON: Do these words succeed a [[question]] you had asked? (No, they're like some body conversing and they stop when I tune in.) So it is as though you hear two people talking? (Yes, but only one half of the [[conversation]].) Continue to [[practice]] and continue to see the stream [[flow]]. What you want to do is construct a [[metaphor]] in your mind that allows this [[process]] to [[flow]] through without stopping. (Thank you.)

If there are no further questions, let us now take a pause and let you go back to listening to Daniel, although I believe I have [http://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/steal-ones-thunder.html stolen his thunder]. The topic he was going to talk on today was "Validating [[revelation]]." Thank you. I'll be with you all through the afternoon and I would like to speak to you in closing, before you leave. (Group gives thanks.)
