Teacher Ophelius: “In continuance of our [[discussion]] on the [[Soul Growth|soul building process]], we will now look at the roles of the three [[soul]] processors – the [[mind]], the [[heart]], and the [[Thought Adjuster]] (TA). Each of them play an important part in determining what [[experiences]], [[meanings]], and [[values]] are harvested for soul building and eternal survival. The order in which these three processors are listed here is sequential to the order in which all experiences are processed – from the [[physical]] aspect of human awareness (the brain and the five [[senses]]), to the emotional center (the heart), to the spiritual operator (the TA). All three are [[necessary]] and all three work together in accordance with the [[free will]] prerogatives established by the [[Universal Father]] which assures relative untethered and diverse experience harvesting.
“The [[mind]], the [[heart]], and the [[TA]] can be thought of like the three branches of democratic [[government]] – the [[legislative]] branch (mind), the [[executive]] branch (heart) and the [[judicial]] branch (the TA). To build a healthy and weighty [[soul]], all three must function together, and [[communicate]] laterally sending feedback for [[wisdom]] gathering, yet for many, the executive branch can often bypass the judicial branch by executive order and make decisions that are not necessarily of survival value. The ability of a [[government]] to serve the highest good for its constituency is determined by the [[quality]] of the members of the legislative and executive branches – the judicial branch only contains one member (the TA) and He retains [[sovereign]] authority in what passes through to [[the soul]].
“There is a two party system at work in the first two branches – those members (human [[thoughts]]) that are more aligned with fear and those that are more aligned with human love (conditional love) – the TA operates exclusively on Divine Love (unconditional love). There is constant [[debate]] among these partisan members which does not always serve the greater good of the soul, yet the debate is essential to the functioning of [[free will]]. The judicial branch (TA) has no authority over what the other two branches do or what experiences they will entertain, yet the TA will express its opinion in certain matters, which the executive and legislative branches can take under consideration or ignore completely.
“The legislative branch ([[mind]]) searches out and brings life experiences through the [[senses]] and presents them to the executive branch (the heart) for a [[decision]] on whether it will pursue the current course of action or will choose another based on the [[wisdom]] of past events. If the majority of its members belong to the Fear Party, then it is more likely the decisions of the executive branch (heart) will be subservient to the [[ego]] and the experiences will be discordant and not likely to pass through the [[judiciary]]. If it is more dominated by the Love Party, the decisions of the heart are more likely to fall in favor of [[love]], [[mercy]], and [[compassion]] and the experiences are more likely to pass through the judicial branch and on into [[the soul]]. The judiciary (TA) holds the experiences up to the light and compares them to the precedence set by the [[Universal Father]] by the criteria of [[Truth, Beauty, and Goodness]] (the [[constitution]]).
“The operations of the three soul processors are more [[complicated]] than this parity suggests, yet it is meant to stimulate your own [[thoughts]] about how experiences are processed. In Part Three (3) of this series, we will look at the experiences themselves and what [[practical]] value they serve for the [[110:7|surviving soul]].
“Peace to you,
“The Circle of Seven.”
===Part 3===
*August 9, 2014
Teacher Ophelius: “In this brief on the [[soul building]] [[process]] we will look at what constitutes a survival value [[experience]] and what practical [[value]] those experiences have in forming the surviving [[morontia soul]]. In the short duration of time spent in [[earth]] life, it is wise to give thought to the value of your experiences and to maximize your time in building the best ‘you’ there can be.
“As with any well [[prepared]] traveler, it is beneficial to plan ahead for a long [[journey]] and pack things that you would most likely need when visiting a new land. Your ‘[[backpack]]’ is the embryonic [[soul]] – it is the container for all those worthwhile experiences that will help you to [[navigate]] and [[explore]] this new land you will surely visit. Because you are traveling [[light]], you would not pack unnecessary items that would weigh you down and knowing that you are not always adept at deciding what to take and what to leave, your ‘Smart Assistant’ and ‘GPS’ – the [[Thought Adjuster]] (TA), knows the way and proficiently filters your check list of items deemed [[necessary]] for the journey.
“So, what should you bring? [[Imagine]] what it will be like to visit this new land. What are the people like there? What are the [[customs]]? What’s the [[weather]] like? What is the [[economy]] like? Are there any dangers? Imagine this [[heaven]]-like place and think about what you would need to actually ‘live’ there.
“Since there is no [[money]] economy, you will not need currency, silver, gold, or any of the experiences in your current life that pertain to the procurement of money – Wow, that’s a huge chunk of [[human]] life experience is it not? What about all those experiences you are not proud of that include [[anger]], [[resentment]], [[cruelty]], [[abusiveness]], judgment, [[selfishness]], un-forgiveness, and other experiences that did not serve you well in your current life? They will not be needed there, because there is no practical or [[future]] use for such valueless meanings.
“If you think about only the very best [[experiences]] you had in life – the [[joys]] of life that you retain fond [[memory]] of – those are the things that will serve you in your next life on the [[mansion worlds]]. Loving [[relationships]] are the first and most important experiences the TA will likely retain for you. Those experiences that involve the [[discovery]] of [[truth]], the joy of creating or beholding [[beauty]], and the experiences of ‘[[being]]’ in a state of [[goodness]] – those times and situations where you enjoyed living life are the most valuable experiences for the [[Supreme Being]] to experience with you. All the hurtful, shameful, contemptible experiences (non-survival values) will fall away like [[scaffolding]] when you make the [[transition]].
“Think about this: If 90% of your life [[experience]] was lived in the pursuit of non-survival [[values]], what would be in your backpack? Only crumbs, my friends, and there would not be much of ‘you’ left to begin this new life. You would be unprepared for your new life and would have a [[difficult]] time making the [[transition]].
“When life experience [[encompasses]] [[Love]] in any way, shape, or form, it is sure to make the check list and be included in your backpack. Pack wisely my friends and [[choose]] to experience [[life]] in a way that will [[progressive]]ly serve you in your present [[life]] and in your future career.
“[[Peace]] to you,
“The Circle of Seven.”
===Part 4===
*August 17, 2014
Teacher Ophelius: “Today, we would like to speak more about the composition of [[the soul]], and how those valuable [[experiences]] you have in earth life help you to become progressive [[morontia]] citizens in your journey through the [[mansion worlds]]. Some of the activities and practices you now entertain, and which bring [[value]] to your life, shall become a great asset to you in the [[afterlife]], and so being consciously prepared for your next adventure, having the blessed [[assurance]] that life is [[eternal]], is one of the greatest [[joys]] of living that shall sustain you and keep you ‘forward moving’ toward god-like [[perfection]].
“On the [[mansion worlds]], having greater [[mind]] capacity and circuitry connected to the [[cosmic mind]], your ability to focus and [[reflect]] on the earth treasures you bring with you will help you to get acclimated to [[morontia life]] and the perfection [[process]] of [[ascension]]. There you no longer have to spend time and energy carving out a ‘living’ to sustain your most basic physical needs or to provide [[shelter]] – pay rent, and so you will have ‘infinitely’ more time to build a better you.
“Think about how much time you spend each day on self-improvement or nurturing a loving [[relationship]] compared to all the time spent on [[terrestrial]] needs? This ratio is nearly reversed on Mansonia and much of your early activities and time will be spent acclimating to your new [[morontia bodies]] and discovering and using your new expanded [[abilities]]. You no longer have a physical brain that operates on [[electrochemical]] impulses driven by [[emotion]], and therefore you have greater [[control]] of your [[thoughts]] and the ability to analyze past experiences without self-loathing and extract the higher [[meanings]] and [[values]] as they relate to your ascendant career.
“The weightier [[your soul]] is rich with [[survival]] value [[experiences]], mastery, and character in this life, the greater will be your [[ability]] to grasp the new [[meanings]] and [[values]] you encounter in this new and amazing life on the [[mansion worlds]], for each progressive realm of [[existence]] builds upon the experiences of the former and the [[wisdom]] gleaned from those experiences is what perfects the [[mind]] and raises the vibratory signature of the surviving [[soul]], elevating it closer and closer to [[the Source]] of all [[creation]].
“Do you practice [[stillness]], and do you communicate your [[questions]] – ask for [[guidance]], share your [[thoughts]] and [[desires]] with [[the Father]]? This same process of ‘reaching out’ to Spirit for nurturing and guidance will continue on the [[mansion worlds]], yet the energetic connection to these divine sources will be more real to you there because of your conscious connection to your Indwelling Father fragment, the [[Thought Adjuster]]. Do you enjoy socializing – gathering with like-minded [[personalities]] and sharing and exchanging [[information]] and experiences? On the mansion worlds, you won’t have to search far to find [[kindred spirits]], for you shall be mostly grouped together with those of similar [[vibration]] where you can all learn and acquire new [[knowledge]], discover and create new ideas, and progress together in a safe and astonishing environment where you can [[focus]] on those things that interest you most.
“There is a familiar [[pattern]] to [[life]] after you strip away all the [[interference]] from ‘terrestrial [[challenges]]’ that you can begin recognize that will carry over with you into the hereafter. There you can more clearly see how important is your earth life – your [[decisions]] and [[actions]], your loves and [[relationships]], and how they shape who you are and what you are [[becoming]]. Become aware, my friends, of this process as you go about your daily lives and think about how your current life shall work into your new life on the [[mansion worlds]] and how you can build a better you.
“Peace to you,
“The Circle of Seven.”
