And so here we are, embarking upon a new epoch - not only we who are privy to the Urantia Papers, but all of humanity. For we were ready! You were ready. The planet was ready or the Book would not have come. These revelations do not come until the time is ripe and the time was ripe for this revelation. And so it enhances your knowledge greatly.

If the vehicle was able to give you that stimuli and that stimuli has contributed to your immortal soul, it ought not be disdained as being less than revelation, for in truth it did provide revelation.

MERIUM: There is always a price, it seems, which is why the Master spoke about counting the cost. Is it worth it? Only you individually can decide, but on a day such as today, with the clouds billowing, the colors brilliant, everything young and abloom, including your faith and your attitudes, how can there be any question that the price you have paid for admission is a small price to pay indeed for the bounties we know as conscious sons and daughters of living reality, deity itself.

Perhaps we should conclude. [Pause] Bye-bye.
