As the [[animal]] creatures of your realm fall under your [[dominion]], so do you follow under the [[dominion]] of the [[angels]] and other orders of celestial helpers. Above the orders of [[seraphim]] are yet greater and superlative guides and [[spirit]] [[companions]]. Each realm of existence is a creation born of [[perfection]] and in its [[natural]] state carries a [[harmony]] and repleteness which only serves to testify to the [[perfection]] of the grand scheme.

I will draw a [[picture]] for you of your [[environment]], as was observed by Gerdean moments ago, as she entered the arena of the outdoors to squat as a reptile in the dense green of your planet [[Urantia]] in this geographic arena on this moist and green [[Spring]] evening. The [[comparison]] to a reptile of our friend here is only to bring to your [[attention]] that from the [[perspective]] of a frog, all is well in [[the universe]]. The water droplets are friendly and (they) moisten the [[soil]], which causes [[life]] to grow, which nurtures food, which creates fertilization and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humidity humidity] to support the [[balance]] of life in the arena of the reptile. It is [[perfect]]. It is appropriate, as is your arena for you perfect and appropriate.

If indeed you were to have the [[faith]] which is [[inherent]] in you by and through your [[connection]] to [[divinity]] through your [[Indwelling God Fragment]], if you were to [[adhere]] to that [[faith]] which lives deep within you, even in your [[environment]], in your arena outwardly and not just inwardly, you would carry forth faith in your environment and in your fellow [[beings]], and you would find that your environment is [[perfect]], that all your needs are met, that only as a result of your [[fears]] and your refusing to live up to the faith which you really have, do you lose track of the [[perfection]] that is, and hope to [[secure]] some contrived version of perfection which is [[illusion]].

TOMAS: Child, you are in my [[prayers]] on a daily basis, and yet I will [[honor]] your request by even now calling forth Our Infinite Parents' [[merciful]] ministry to your [[being]], to envelop you in that [[divine]] [[love]] which you know to be whole and [[pure]] and of which you are a part. In your [[association]] with [[spirit]] you are [[strengthened]] and it is through your reliance upon spirit that your patterns are brought into [[alignment]], that your [[molecular]] structure is put to peace amid wholeness. It is in the [[divine]] [[love]] and [[healing]] [[grace]] of [[the Mother]] and her ministers that these [[vicissitudes]] of the [[mortal]] existence are found to be a [[radiant]] testimony to the living love of the [[Universal Father]]. [[Rest]] in [[peace]] of divine [[overcare]], infinite and eternal.

Student: We were [[reading]] about the [[supernaphim]] and I had a book called "[http://www.amazon.com/The-Kingdom-Gods-Geoffrey-Hodson/dp/8170590604 The Kingdom of the Gods]" and I figure you probably [[read]] it because I [[understand]] that you can read very fast, and I thought perhaps you could say -- was there any [[truth]] in the presentations in that book of the angelic spirits?

TOMAS: You have put me to the test for I have not [[read]] the [[book]]. It is very possible that the [[angels]] are familiar with it; they have not [[discussed]] it with me. What is it particularly that they have purported that you would like confirmed?

Student: Well, we're so [[happy]] that you came. It's going to be [[exciting]] to enlarge our [[understanding]] by our [[chance]] to know you. Have you been on [[the planet]] for just this recent [[Correcting Time]] or were you here before that time?

DAMALIA: I have been [[busy]] since perhaps [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1948 1948] or so. But I am only speaking for myself here. I have been active as a [[seraphim]] for much longer than these past few decades. It has been interesting, however, watching the [[development]] of the new [[dispensation]] coming on, the many [[preparations]] that have come to pass in readiness for what you [[experience]] now in many ways, many ways, many ways which are not familiar to you yet, but [[the teachers]], the [[Correcting Time]] is one of the things we worked toward, as you can [[imagine]].

Student: Well, certainly when I listen to some of the spiritual [[messages]] that are on the [[radio]] now, and on our television, I am thinking that would be a powerful tool for bringing about the [[consciousness]] of the [[changing]] spiritual atmosphere on [[the planet]]. It's been an amazing thing since talk radio was brought about. Would you comment?

DAMALIA: I will comment, though I daresay this entire subject of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcasting broadcasting] might be more appropriately addressed by yet a different [[seraphim]] who specializes in such, but, since it is indeed part of the [[scaffolding]] and [[communication]] and bringing of like minds together for activity, it could present a [[challenge]] for even this group or any other group of beings, for communications are as you understand the key word in our [[work]], and broadcasting is of course a front runner, radio being effective in that it is more directly addressing the ear of the [[individual]], more subliminal as well as direct, as [[compared]] to the television which creates a [[competition]] with the [[visual]].

What I am saying, I think is that the [[radio]] could be used to much better [[purpose]] than it is used, particularly with the talk shows as they are. I have not yet heard a talk show where [[individuals]] called up to talk about the [[Urantia Book]], followed by another [[individual]] who called to say, "Yes, I read that book; I agree with you," and yet another individual to call to say, "And what about this that it says on such-and-such a page?" and incorporate your [[belief]] system into the standard, common routine of talk radio as [[Christianity]] as done, as [[capitalism]] has done, as [[atheism]] has done. Are you afraid of your own work?

Student: This [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pittsburgh,_Pennsylvania Pittsburgh] community is indeed that. I was just back from Colorado and I can tell you, Damalia, that is a whole [[different]] world of [[youth]] and [[acceptance]] and [[flexibility]] and so on.
