Thought Adjuster: “Dear child, let us talk about the misguided [[aggrandizement]] of the [[ego]] as it is unfortunately a frequently experienced occurrence on [[your planet]]. Due to the various states of [[separation]] — interspecies, inter-realms, inter-relational and within the layers that constitute an [[individual]] — too much [[focus]] is being accorded to the visible level of your [[reality]] and very little to none to the invisible realities. The air you breathe is invisible; the water you drink is colorless; yet, without them you could not exist.

“The invisible realities are actually primordial and when no [[conscious]] contact is established with them, you miss out on experiencing the multi-[[dimensions]] of your own [[being]] and live on a purely animalistic and ‘down-to-earth’ level. From that [[perspective]], the pull of the physical [[gravity]] becomes even stronger as it is not counterbalanced by the spiritual pull of the [[Paradise]] gravity and you do not come in touch with your powerful spiritual side. This leads many to search for the [[gratification]] of their physical [[senses]] rather than their spiritual ones. The ego is being given too much importance and this gives rise to a great state of imbalance. Ego-centeredness shrinks who you are; God-centeredness expands who you are meant to be.

“Whenever you receive a beautifully wrapped gift, you are eager to open it as you are well aware that the wrapping — no matter how [[attractive]] it is — is not the gift. The gift itself is invisible to the eyes and the [[receiver]] of the gift will eagerly remove the wrapping in order to reveal its content; the lovingly wrapped gift brings the [[assurance]] that the gift has been carefully sought out so as to [[satisfy]] the needs of the receiver.

“Aren’t you [[curious]] to see what has been lovingly ‘wrapped’ within your being? Your [[personality]] is your first amazing gift — a unique edition. This gift comes with many accessories, including your [[talents]]. The [[Divine Fragment]] who comes to indwell you at your first moral [[decision]] is your second priceless gift — a fragment of Paradise lives within you! Can you fathom how blessed you are? [[The Father]] is an anonymous Giver and does not blow His own horn. He lovingly endows you with potentialities and leaves it up to you to develop them so as to bring forth your own [[beauty]] as a heartfelt acknowledgment that His gifts have not been taken for granted and have been put to good use.

“The Father does not gift you with the finished product. In His [[wisdom]], He gifts you with kits that will require you to put your God-given [[intelligence]], your God-given [[energy]], your God-given [[intuition]] and your God-given [[imagination]] to good use. These are called educational gifts. The Father provides you with all the parts and all the tools needed to put the gift [[together]]. He also lives within you to read to you the owner’s manual whenever needed. There is a constant hotline that is accessible to you whenever you find yourself at a loss. All that you have to do is to turn within and clearly articulate your perplexity. By doing so, it will [[simultaneously]] bring you some level of [[clarity]]. The Father is truly your BFF and such an eternal friendship is the best sounding board you could ever have — unconditionally loving, [[inspiring]], [[understanding]], encouraging and non-judgmental.
===Closing===
“Do not live your [[life]] in such a way that you will kick yourself later once you come to [[realize]] that you have not been meant to live in a state of [[separation]], but that you have been inserted in a [[social]] setting where interaction takes place at all levels of your [[being]]. Strive for [[connection]], not for isolation. This is from where all the answers will be forthcoming.”
