Changes

I will make another point regarding your [[sleep]] experiences. That is that as you develop an ever stronger [[spiritual]] [[presence]] you begin to function more often in the higher realms of mind wherein you are beginning to detect near [[morontia]] realities. Of these verities of the morontia level it's difficult for the [[mind]] to [[perceive]], but the impression is strong and your [[Adjuster]] is active and you will, in an effort to make sensible your perception, encounter strong vividness, albeit overlaid with human [[contextual]] [[understanding]]. You will interpret this near [[association]] to the morontia level of being. The greater your anchor in God, the better your [[ability]] to [[adjust]] to this [[experience]] -- the more fear, the less the giving of [[control]] of [[self]] to the over control of God, the more likely for your [[interpretation]] to be disturbing. As mind expands and in [[stillness]], as you deepen your mind, all levels of [[consciousness]] become more readily apparent to [[personality]]. Yes, your [[dreams]] may become as vivid as your [[waking]] life and the sense of the proximity of morontia will likewise become more vivid. I hope this has contributed to your pursuit of [[understanding]].

Brendan: Yes, very much so. A quick follow up. About [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucid_dreaming lucid dreaming], where people have [[control]] of their dreams, making [[decisions]] and taking [[action]]. Is this a higher level of [[development]]?

Elyon: This [[functionality]] you speak of is an [[assurance]] of your [[attainment]] of functioning in the [[superconscious]]. As you become more real on the level of [[soul]] there is more of you that functions upon this level of superconscious mind. It is not merely the will of the conscious sleeping mind that acts in this manner you speak of. Every attempt you make to improve such deliberateness is not done so while asleep. Improvement comes through [[growth]] in spirit realities while [[awake]]. This enlargement of [[the soul]] makes you more capable of experience and these experiences come when .

Therefore it becomes unnecessary to concern yourself with forcible directivity while asleep. Set your primary [[focus]] upon [[conscious]] elevation of [[awareness]] while you live your daily life. The greater the [[content]] of [[soul]] reality, the more likely you will function within [[superconsciousness]] in such a way that you as a conscious mind will [[discern]] this state of function.

Bob: I've been pondering the effects of [[corporatism]] on [[society]] and wonder about the [[change]] toward a new system of societal development where people aren't working for a corporate bottom line, but are in [[cooperative]] enterprises characterized more by [[service]] and [[altruism]], where the benefits are to the workers in the system rather than at a corporate level.

Elyon: You will encounter throughout [[the universes]] many agencies that [[coordinate]] [[personalities]] for the accomplishment of a [[purpose]], of a mission. This coordination is made efficient in a manner much like your corporate structures, for while [[ascending]] personalities are gaining the [[ability]] to be self governed, until such [[attainments]] everyone benefits by [[hierarchical]] arrangements. It is much like the presence within your human body of your [[brain]], your neural structure and the various organs and tissues that make up your body. This corporate structure of a ruling head [[assures]] [[coordinated]] function within your being and as you have indicated, corporate structure is best applied in [[service]]. For if your brain was to lose its focus upon the rest of your body, all functioning would be disrupted in like [[manner]].

Marshall: This is Marshall. Could you elaborate more on what [[Machiventa]] touched on last week about this new [[experimental]] [[citizen]] comprised of [[mortal]] and [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=2004-04-15-Policy_on_Urantia_Book_Modification#Morontia_Bodies morontial blending]?

Elyon: My first comment is to encourage each of you to review the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=2004-04-15-Policy_on_Urantia_Book_Modification#Morontia_Bodies statements of Machiventa], to ponder them deeply. My second comment is to bring to your [[remembrance]] the statement of [[Jesus]] to his apostles that they be in the world, but not of the world. This awareness, when fully realized, is a mode of [[functioning]] wherein any one of you may become qualified and [[trained]] to function as a [[morontia]]-[[mortal]] being.

And I also remind you of the agencies of the [[Master Seraphim]] upon your world who are assigned to specific arenas of human [[culture]] and [[civilization]] who also require the staffing of each of their groupings with mortal beings. You and those like you who [[understand]] and welcome these angelic presences are noted in their registries as ones who are qualifiable to become such transitional ministers in the [[healing]] of [[Urantia]] and the re-establishment in the normal [[course]] of planetary [[progress]]. This enlistment will function for the [[purpose]] of bringing [[Urantia]] up through the stages it has lagged behind in accomplishing.

Elyon: My comment to that is yes.

Elyon: My comment to that is yes.

Marshall: Very enlightening. Thank you, Elyon, so eloquently stated. Regarding this lesson that Sondha's [[[Sondjah]]] touched on is this idea of a spectrum of [[consciousness]], and through this consciousness we can overcome the [[limitations]] of [[finite]] existence. It is feasible to [[accept]] that we can observe larger regions of the measurable universe. If you [[imagine]] a tall pole attached at the top with many cables and each cable stretched out and anchored to the ground, creating an array of cords in the shape of a cone, these cables where they are anchored at the ground represent those human beings you speak of. And at the top of that pole is [[the Father]] of all. Further developing your awareness of your relationship to that one great being, the [[First Source and Center]], ever strengthens that cable connection. Every undertaking in the understanding of [[cosmic]] realities, every engagement in the outpouring of love upon your fellows in [[service]], contribute to your enlargement of that cable connection.

When you draw ever closer to [[the Father]] in [[meditation]], [[prayer]], and [[worship]], you rise in [[consciousness]] up this cable closer to the Father, and along the way you draw closer to those like you who are arranged around this pole and [[connected]] in their own way to the Father. It thereby becomes increasingly easy to [[recognize]] [[souls]] functioning in the [[manner]] that you pursue.
