Teacher Uteah: “In this third lesson on [[Light and Life]] we will [[explore]] the [[differences]] between a [[rebellion]] mindset and a mindset that is oriented toward [[progressive]] [[thinking]] — a people moving into Light and Life. It would be wise for us to consider the ‘[[Golden Rule]]’ as a universal [[understanding]]— and that would be helpful to keep in the forefront of your thinking, but in application on a world conditioned by rebellion, the Golden Rule is mostly thought of as a [[Utopian]] [[idea]] that comes after your neighbor adopts this thinking. Light and Life is a state of being — simply being in a [[relationship]] of [[goodness]] with your fellows.
“The application and [[expression]] of a Light and Life mindset is not something unattainable or afar off in the distant [[future]]. Many Urantians are already living with this mindset and the application of the Golden Rule — they [[wake]] each day and apply this thinking throughout the [[course]] of their day. They are naturally [[attractive]] in their [[energy]] and draw others of like [[mind]] to themselves. Herewith, a [[synergy]] begins to [[organize]] and they become moved to solve some problem of inequity in their lives, their [[social]] circles; and engage the world with an [[attitude]] that they can make a difference. These people exist today and are seen as the ‘movers and shakers’ of the world that draw [[attention]] to some need or problem to be solved. They are not interested in self-indulgence or [[self]]-recognition — no, but the recognition of the problems and inequities to be solved. These people often come from very [[humble]] or troubled beginnings and have made a [[decision]] — they used their mind and willpower to [[choose]] how they would live their life going forward — a thinking that anything is possible and achievable.
“Many of you will see these people as [[gifted]] or ingenious, but mostly they are quite ordinary in [[intelligence]] — they only see the world differently and they do not follow the same [[thinking]] that creates [[suffering]] in the world. They recognize that [[opportunity]] is a [[co-creative]] [[process]] whether they see it coming from within or through [[collaboration]] with others. The mindset of Light and Life is this way and you can be this way — you can begin today if you are willing and [[decide]] not to wait for your [[neighbor]] to adopt this thinking first. Take your co-creative thinking to the next level and [[become]] the [[change]] you want to see in the world. See the world, not as [[evil]], but as being guided through co-creationism. Waking up to recognize co-creative [[guidance]] in your own life will empower you to work together with your fellows to move your world closer to [[Light and Life]].
“[[Conservatism|Conservative]] and [[liberalism]] are mindsets that exist as the antidote to the other and rarely will they become [[unified]] to solve any problem — they naturally create [[separation]] — ‘us against them’ thinking. [[Unity]] is found in the intersecting values both sides already agree on, but use different language to [[describe]] it. Look for the intersecting [[values]] that are [[true, beautiful, and good]] for all people. ‘Unconditional understanding’ and [[communication]] are key to finding the intersecting values. Too much [[listening]] to the [[opinions]] of others without having any discerning thoughts of your own is what keeps you stuck in the [[polarized]] mindset (rebellion mindset). Recognize this polarized view and choose not to follow after it. A mindset of Light and Life is one that recognizes the exclusionary thinking of [[separation]] and applies [[forgiveness]] and [[mercy]] — it seeks for the higher ground and considers the [[possibilities]] that a way forward can be found that benefits all sides.
“The one [[caveat]] to separation is when one side is choosing an immoral [[path]] — there can be no intersecting values in immoral choosing. Who then defines what is right and wrong? [[Society]] does — it comes from a [[collective]] inner knowing and can always be held against the [[Golden Rule]] and tested. Society will always want a better [[path]] than what exists today and will work with its [[leadership]] to redefine it — it moves and [[transforms]] as the thinking of its citizens [[progress]] (or regress).
===Closing===
“The mindset of [[Light and Life]] is already here on your world. Look for it and you will see it — you will recognize it and you shall become more [[sensitive]] to the rebellion mindset — that thinking that creates separation or acts [[immorally]]. Think about those rare instances where two polarized sides courageously stepped aside from their positions and reached out with a handshake in the hope of finding a way forward. It makes headlines — there is a warm [[feeling]] of [[goodness]] that pervades the space around such [[courageous]] consideration and the recognition that both can co-exist having differences yet respect the other while solutions are sought. Why are these events so rare? Each side is waiting for the other to move first.
“Be the first to choose [[Light and Life]] in your own thinking and watch the [[miracles]] [[unfold]] around you.
“Brotherhood is possible,
“I AM Uteah.”
===Receiver’s Note===
I am reminded by Uteah that these messages are co-creative in nature and are not the exclusive [[words]] of Uteah, but the [[ideas]] that are impressed upon me through a co-creative [[process]]. This same process can be applied to any co-creative endeavor by any person living on [[Urantia]] that is indwelled with the [[Ta|Presence of the Father]] through the agency of the Thought Adjuster. Understanding that you are all co-creators is the very thing that will bring Light and Life to Urantia.
