===Opening===
Prayer: Divine Parents, we circle up in [[anticipation]] of approaching you, in anticipation of approaching [[divinity]]. We draw heavily on our [[faith]] as we do at all these moments. We rush in anticipation to join you in this [[arena]] of [[spirit]] that we create and that we [[endow]]. We are [[eager]] to join you at times like this in this [[process]] and host your emissaries of light, any of those dedicated [[teachers]] who would like to [[interface]] with us at this time. We provide this [[opportunity]], we build this [[forum]] even now for this to transpire. And so it is, and so we will it to be, and so I now offer myself as a [[liaison]] in the process and ask to be guided and interfaced with my spiritual [[community]]. Thank you for this opportunity, we welcome them and [[embrace]] them at this time, let it be so.
===Lesson===
===='''''[[Authorship]]'''''====
Machiventa Melchizedek: I am here to [[accept]] the [[opportunity]] you provide, I am [[Machiventa Melchizedek]]. It has been my [[pleasure]] to return to some of my friends and be a part of a few meetings that have transpired recently and I desire to seize this opportunity to come among you and [[discuss]] for a moment the [[application]] of yourselves in the process. What I mean to refer to is that as dedicated [[students]] of the teachings, as a matter of [[course]] and routine, you become familiar and well versed in the lessons if you [[study]] and desire to apply these in your lives. As a result, these teachings [[become]] a part of you, they become an aspect of your [[being]] and as such, you then have a certain ownership if not mastery over these lessons and [[principles]].
Therefore, I would like to point out for your [[consideration]] and adoption, the notion that when you put forth an [[idea]], even though this idea may have been generated in a different location and [[shared]] to you and then adopted, nevertheless at some point you may speak with [[authority]] about your [[relationship]] to this lesson, your [[experience]] with this lesson, your approach with this lesson, your skill at applying this lesson. All of these become yours as a result of your having a [[relationship]] with them. So this provides you with what is called, [[authority]], you are the [[author]] of your [[story]] and your story is authored solely by you.
Therefore one should feel a certain air of [[authority]] when describing your [[experiences]], they are valid, they are true, real and right as far as you are concerned. They may, however, be subject to revision or updates as you may so allow but nevertheless they are your [[interpretations]] of the lessons and the [[truths]] contained. My attempt here is to get you [[comfortable]] with the idea that even though there are ideas which have come to you from alternate [[sources]], once they [[interact]] with you or rather, once you interact with them, then you are changed, they are a matter of your [[perception]] and observation and their degree of [[reality]] is referenced by you and your experience. When you are able to [[share]] this experience with others, you grant them the benefit of your unique interpretation, your view from your side of the [[fire]]. And combined, we all have all the different possible views available. All of us make our [[individual]] contributions to the big picture, to [[the Supreme]]. So I [[encourage]] you to consider that when you relate to another your experience, you are in fact offering with real [[authority]] your version of [[truth]], your take on [[goodness]], your perspective of [[beauty]] and these may be contributed to the [[thought stream]] of [[humanity]].
I thank you for the opportunity to speak with you about [[authorship]] and your [[integrity]] in this [[process]]. Many times the author or the musician or the artist fails to see their significance in the process, rather preferring to see themselves as simply a [[tool]] or a part of the process. In fact it is a magnificent [[co-creative]] [[adventure]] in which you are involved, you are a part, in fact, you are [[responsible]]. Without you, your entire [[story]] would not exist and could not be [[shared]] with others nor the [[Supreme]]. As an [[individual]], your story is important, it is significant, it is a [[necessary]] piece of a [[the Whole|gigantic whole]]. So my wish for you might just be that you would consider yourself as highly in the process you are involved in as we consider you, as you are considered by others. I [[hope]] this serves to bring you more [[courage]] and [[strength]] to stand behind your story, your view from your side of the fire.
It is a [[pleasure]] to share my view from my side of the fire, to offer my [[perspective]] for your [[consideration]]. I now would make room in this [[forum]] for others to access as I have. I bid you all a good day.
===='''''[[Light]]'''''====
Light: Hello, I do consider it an honor to address you, I am Light and I welcome this [[opportunity]] you provide. In [[reflection]] of [[Machiventa]]'s words, another view of the circumstance, another [[interpretation]] of the [[experience]] might be that all of you contain an [[Ta|internal light]], a candle within that burns bright. Every one of you, when you are present with your light, certainly dispel the [[darkness]] around you. When you [[choose]] to gather together and bring your light into an [[arena]] where you may function [[together]], you become as the [[chandelier]], many candles make great light and [[illuminate]] a grand arena. But even if you are not [[associated]] with the other lights, you still have the capacity yourself, individually, to [[change]] the very [[essence]] of darkness, to modify and condition it by your very presence.
This is such a [[normal]] and natural part of your condition that you do not fully [[understand]] or are not fully aware of the [[impact]] that you have when you bring your light to bear in your every day circumstances but I [[assure]] you, it does change your [[environment]], it does alter your [[reality]], in fact, it draws the [[truth, beauty, and goodness]] to you that respond to such an internal light. In this way it truly does condition your reality, cause your experience to [[unfold]] and all of this serves to feed the light and cause a greater [[glow]] within you.
It is always a great [[pleasure]] to come among you and speak of the many [[interpretations]] of [[light]], its [[flow]], its use and its [[presence]]. It is always good to stop and reflect on the many [[meanings]], the [[values]] contained in these awarenesses that you form about this principle at [[play]], this light that you create, that you reflect, that you [[become]], that you bestow, that nourishes you and that you direct. Considering your energetic [[influence]] as a light being or as a light presence, enables you to [[conjure]] in your [[mind's eye]], a realistic impression you can latch on to. And if this is serviceable and helpful to you then so be it. The energetic flow and [[manipulation]] and [[creation]] that we are speaking of, of course has many perceptions of it, is encountered in many different ways but whatever it is for you that you register in passing, that is your spirit component [[communicating]] with you.
It may be seen as [[light]], it may be felt as light, it may be observed as light, all the while you as observers are creating this means and this [[method]] of identification of the [[flow]] of spirit energy. So make whatever construct of [[mind]] that best suits you to enable you to visualize in your minds eye this [[force]] at play, this [[transfer]] of energy, this flow of [[energy]], this movement of energy and direction of energy which you are engaged in, that you do even now.
I invite you all to ponder and [[consider]] how you would describe the sensation of spirit [[contact]]: What does it feel like to you? How do you sense it? How do you detect spirit [[presence]] ? How do you know it? These may be serviceable [[questions]] as you move through the [[process]] of identifying, feeling it and not [[feeling]] it, being aware of it and feeling a lack of it. This may help you develop a keener sense of spiritual [[connection]] and so I invite you to consider the questions.
It is always my [[pleasure]] to join you at times like this and offer [[encouragement]] to those who would seek a direction towards the answers. Thank you all for joining tonight, it has been a pleasure. I now take my leave, farewell.
===Dialogue===
===='''''[[Discernment]]''''', '''''[[Guidance]]'''''====
Question: We hear from people talking about [[information]] of the [[Melchizedek]] Son and [[Magisterial Son]] that in less than five years from now there is talk about another [[Urantia Book]], maybe part II about to be released. I would appreciate if the [[teachers]] would talk about these things, thank you.
Charles: Hello, Charles here, I would like to take this [[opportunity]] to corral all these inquisitive [[minds]] about things to come, about things that are, about things that might be, to simply go back to the basics of the [[Teaching Mission]] from the start. This notion that an individual will develop a [[relationship]] with spirit based upon a routine and [[practice]] of entering the [[stillness]], creating an internal environment whereby spirit [[communion]] may be [[facilitated]]. In this [[process]] and returning to this process repeatedly, one creates the [[arena]] whereby you may in spirit commune with not only [[celestial]] beings such as myself, but you may also commune with that internal [[Ta|Fragment of the Father within you]] bestowed there as a divine gift on your behalf, there to be communed with, referenced, asked and embraced as your [[partner]].
This is of course, your [[ultimate]] [[destiny]] and you are granted all the latitude and time required for you to make this [[association]], to [[embrace]] this [[relationship]], to commune freely with your Indwelling Spirit Guide and this process unerringly provides you with the [[truth]] as it is relevant to you, your truth. It has just been discussed earlier here that every single one of you will have a completely different [[perspective]] on even the same event, therefore, your truth will be [[different]], will be unique, will be individualized to your [[experience]]. The constant that you all may have, which is your [[compass]] heading in the process, is this connection to your Indwelling Spirit. This [[Thought Adjuster]] within is there to guide you throughout every facet of your experience if you would but [[partner]] with them.
This [[process]] may be employed for any situation, every situation and every circumstance that you can [[imagine]]. So the [[question]] to ask is: How can each and everyone of you determine for yourself, the [[validity]], the [[truth]], the [[accuracy]], the appropriateness of anything that you encounter, of [[everything]] that you encounter? I tell you that you may employ the very same [[method]] in this [[process]]. This conditioning of yourself to create the space whereby you may be granted the answers, where your awareness may be expanded, is an [[effort]] you must make, is a [[step]] you must take individually.
Once you have this [[connection]], once you have this in place, you need not ask others what they think, what their [[opinion]] is, what direction they think things are going. [[Trust]] your Inner Guide. Does it contain truth? Is it [[beautiful]]? Does it contain [[goodness]]? These are your measures and yardsticks that you must use each time and every time. The same standards will apply. How much truth, how much goodness, how much beauty are contained is the same question to ask about every facet of your life. And for this answer, no one else may tell you. For this personal assessment to you, you must make it. This [[interpretation]] of yours must be made by you. This speaks to the whole idea of [[authorship]]: What do you [[believe]]? What do you know? What do you [[understand]]? What are you aware of and how do you come by these truths? What criteria do you use to assess them? What combination have you assembled and arrived at after your [[process]] has been undergone? This is what is still important about some of the very first teachings ever issued in this whole process. Create a [[link]] between you and [[spirit]]. Build a [[method]] whereby you will access this link. Repeat this process until you are fluent and use this process to seek your personal [[guidance]], the same process still holds.
===Closing===
It is my [[pleasure]] to offer this in return for your [[question]]. I now will take my leave, thank you.
