===Group: [[11:11 Progress Group]]===

===Teacher: [[The Scribe|The Scribe (Sananda)]]===
===TR: [[George Barnard]]===
==Session==
===Opening===
The Scribe: “I wish to speak to you about [[humanness]], especially in [[relation]] to the status of [[enlightenment]] and its pitfalls. If and when you (George) feel either [[confident]] or so inclined to put it to the Progress list, you may do so. However, there is no insistence on My part or that of others ([[Celestials]]) to see that it is published in any way and either in full or in part.
===Lesson===
“The sudden ‘appearance’ or ‘[[event]]’ of [[Enlightenment]], being the gift of one or more aspects of the [[Morontia Mind]], can have widely varied effects on the 7-fold [[human mind]]. Why is this so? It is because you are so different, racially and in a hundred other ways, not to mention your enormously varied [[belief]] systems.
“In [[women]] the phenomenon can be a vase of flowers or a [[garden]] shrub, seemingly lighting up. And afterwards there is a ‘matter-of-cause-knowing’ about [[God]] and [[the universe]] as if this knowing was always already there, when it certainly was not. Rarely, I say rarely, is Enlightenment a cause for the female to go completely ‘round the twist’ as you describe it, but yes, it does so happen. Mostly the female takes Enlightenment well and simply carries on as before, while some [[become]] great contributors.
“In [[males]] Enlightenment can go either way: They can become great contributors with their new and advanced [[minds]], or totally lose the storyline. Yes, Enlightenment can have great [[impact]] on the male mind and until such time as you come to fully [[understand]] this totally natural and [[progressive]] phenomenon better than you do now, there will arise still more ‘[[gurus]]’ and [[false]] leaders who will take you by the hand and lead you nowhere fast.
“Awareness of this now more common but exceptional [[experience]] is what is needed and the initiated need your standing by them to [[channel]] their new gifts into worthwhile projects, not pick up the pieces when it has become too late.”
George: “We are Urantians, we’re [[unique]]. I say we’re just awkward and then some.”
The Scribe: “Perhaps. In time a clearer [[understanding]] of Enlightenment will [[prepare]] you for the hidden [[dangers]] so associated with that sudden event and allow you to [[understand]] that the most divisive problems to be overcome deal with an awakened [[fanaticism]]. Even the well-adjusted can later in life become as [[zealous]] as to lead themselves and their followers into [[despair]].
===Closing===
“Also, as you well know, contact with [[Celestial Teachers]] can occasionally be tenuous and human ‘group-thought’ can bring [[visions]] of exploding nuclear bombs or interplanetary [[invasions]]. So, stay [[happy]], [[healthy]] and [[humble]] in your humanness . . . and always count on Me for the answers you need.
