*Fear inhibits you to the extent that it prevails in your life
 
   
 
   
When you are in fear, you have already given over your will to your fear, and you become incapacitated, which so many of you are, even in the faith of the things that you do see.  Fear is the solvent that dissolves all growth and forward movement, both in your mortal careers and lives and in your afterlife career.  We encourage you when you are aware of unseen spirits, to encourage them to look over their shoulder and see the light and move towards it, for this is the eternal open door to their and your ascension.  They will be brought into our company and given peace and encouragement and movement to God and the final embrace in eternity.  It begins with the decision to give up that which you hold dear in this material world and move on to that which is more dear, which is your eternal career.  I know that I have far exceeded your question, but these things are all connected.  Fear inhibits you—each one of you—to the extent that it prevails in your life.

When you are in [[fear]], you have already given over your [[Free will|will]] to your fear, and you become incapacitated, which so many of you are, even in the [[faith]] of the [[things]] that you do see.  [[Fear]] is the solvent that dissolves all [[growth]] and [[forward movement]], both in your [[mortal]] [[careers]] and lives and in your [[afterlife career]].  We [[encourage]] you when you are [[aware]] of [[unseen]] [[spirits]], to [[encourage]] them to look over their shoulder and see the [[light]] and move towards it, for this is the [[eternal]] open door to their and your [[ascension]].  They will be brought into our company and given [[peace]] and [[encouragement]] and movement to [[God]] and the final [[embrace]] in [[eternity]].  It begins with the [[decision]] to give up that which you hold dear in this [[material]] world and move on to that which is more dear, which is your [[eternal career]].  I know that I have far exceeded your question, but these [[things]] are all [[connected]].  Fear inhibits you—each one of you—to the extent that it prevails in your life.
 
   
 
   
Vicki:  Thank you, Monjoronson.  And actually, I think you answered a lot of questions for one particular reader I know, and I appreciate that you went into that detail.  (Monjoronson:  You are most welcome.)

Monjoronson, I have one question that has come out in your discussion.  Some of us, when a loved one passes, receives communication, and that communication comes in several different ways, I’m learning.  Is that separate from them being able to move on?  Can that communication come when they have already moved on?

Monjoronson, I have one question that has come out in your [[discussion]].  Some of us, when a loved one [[Death|passes]], receives [[communication]], and that communication comes in several [[different]] ways, I’m learning.  Is that separate from them [[being]] able to move on?  Can that [[communication]] come when they have already moved on?
 
   
 
   
 
MONJORONSON:  Yes.
 
MONJORONSON:  Yes.
 
   
 
   
Vicki:  In our special session #12, you were talking about the beliefs that many of us have about spiritism, some of which are harmful.  You mentioned that there’s great confusion on our world about this realm of spiritual entities, that leads to inappropriate beliefs of the occult, both positively and negatively, that these harmful beliefs in spiritism are highly detrimental to an organized effective life of spiritual growth, and that we’ve had too much occupation and thought spent in this realm that is only a bus stop on the way to our morontial realm after mortal life.  I’m feeling that as we enter this more intense transitional period, that many of the Urantians on our earth are going to be relying on what they’ve seen in these movies and these books as reality.  They are going to have really distorted renditions of these experiences, and so I thought today might be a good time for you to give us more specifics on how we should view these things.
