No, LaReen, I am not here to pick on you, or any of you. Of course, I am not here to pick on any of you. I am here to bask in your warmth, and [[assure]] you of my [[love]] and concern. I am still a part of the [[SE Idaho TeaM|SE Idaho teacher base]], and although I have not spoken recently, and am not a frequent speaker without my usual mouthpiece being present, this does not mean that I am not present nor interested in your wonderful [[family]] gatherings.

In a sense, there is no love that is not love in action. Love in [[action]] is [[mercy]], and mercy has been the [[topic]] of your meditations, although we have called it self-forgiveness and [[forgiveness]] of others, as well as greater [[understanding]] which leads to that larger and more merciful love. The [[quality]] of mercy is a patient understanding, an expansive portrayal of [[truth]], rather than a limited and stingy portrayal of truth. It is the [[difference]] between seeing the [[primitive man]] with his club and [[angry]] face and nothing more, and seeing the picture of the same individual facing a saber tooth tiger who is defending his family, his [[wife]] and [[children]] behind him. [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Caveman#Quote] A merciful understanding of the first picture of the man [[necessitates]] the expansion of the [[framework]] so that the larger [[perspective]] creates understanding of his true [[motivation]].

Thank you for your guided [[healing]] [[prayer]] session and for the investiture of your love for this child, one of your own, a younger sister, who is indeed faced with great and challenging [[struggles]], as well as her family. Your understanding and [[compassion]] for them is communicated and will be felt, and you will hear reports of their sense of your [[presence]] and your loving healing prayers. These things, these experiences of spiritual [[reality]], are always greater than you can [[imagine]] in your limited and sometimes doubting frames of [[mind]]. Your text tells you that when the desire to [[express]] affection and love wells up within [[your soul]], not to stifle it. And in [[contrast]] when the [[spirit poisons]] well up in your minds and attempt to poison your souls, that you need take heed immediately and stifle, or better, hand those over to One Who can take them and [[disperse]] them. Exchange the assaulted mind with the peaceful mind of [[Christ Michael]], Who also dwells within you in His [[Spirit of Truth]].

LaReen: When you said forget 50%, but remember 100%, did that mean our [[Thought Adjuster]] picks it up, or what did you mean by that comment?

Aaron (Bill): I was accessing Isaac’s mental store room and referring to a [[psychological]] [[concept]] called "[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overlearning over-learning]," which means you appear to learn beyond what is [[necessary]]. I say, "appear to learn what is beyond necessary", because most people when they are [[anxious]] have a drop in their recall [[ability]]. When you over-learn it’s like you learned 150%, and if you lose 50% you still can do it all.

Aaron (Bill): Yes, you can [[research]] that, if you wish, in the literature called [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_theory_%28education%29 learning theory]. It’s interesting. It isn’t a [[phenomenon]] with exists beyond [[mortality]] because anxiety is, for the largest part, a mortal experience.

Virginia: When you were talking about [[repeating]] the lessons, I thought of my [[teaching]] [[experience]]. When a child has learned something incorrectly you have to repeat it a hundred times, they say. My thought was that I have learned so much incorrectly in my lifetime that it will take at least a hundred lessons to make it sink in. ([[Laughter]].) So thank you for your [[patience]]. I know that [[the teachers]] do a great job of [[encouraging]] us Thank you.

Virginia: Well, Aaron, when you said that I see this picture of the [[brain]], and I see [[Lateralization of brain function|two hemispheres]] and I see the reptilian brain below. That is not what is meant by three-brained people?

Aaron (Bill): No, the three-brained mortals have another [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cortex cortex] on top of the two-brains, not underneath, as this is still the [[primitive]] reptilian brain, but another structure above. My planet of origin was three-brained, but that is unusual. It is a [[minority]]. It does give us an [[advantage]] in the mortal life of better spiritual [[connection]]. But have no fears, my friends, for once you leave this mortal sphere everything is equalized on the [[morontia]] worlds. It doesn’t matter whether you come from a [[one-brained]], two-brained or three-brained mortal [[species]]; from an air-breather, from a water-breather, from a [[non-breather]], all of us are spiritually the same. We all [[progress]], but we all have different experiences which adds to the [[Supreme]] in its [[complexity]] and [[beauty]]. We are almost off the track with this sort of thing, but I know it helps you sometimes to realize that it isn’t simply your [[motivation]] that is faulty. You have a life [[mechanism]] which is designed for the reasons that I mentioned earlier, and yet, it does in fact present you with quite a [[challenge]]. Wouldn’t you all agree with that? (Group agrees.)

However, remember this. [[Jesus]] [[incarnated]] as a [[Urantia]] mortal, [[two-brained]], and He achieved the perfect [[balance]] of His [[personality]] in just a few years, While you are not [[Creator Sons]], now that He has gone before you, and not just you but before [[Nebadon|His whole universe]], all mortals now have been given an up-lift, a supercharge on this mortal [[journey]] toward God and toward [[Paradise]]. Are there other individuals in this group who would like to ask a question or comment at this point. (Pause.) Very well, then I conclude that we are finished, and I will hand the microphone over to your teacher, Daniel. One moment.
