RAYSON: Good evening, children; this is [[Rayson]]. Your [[teacher]] will be here momentarily. He is on assignment in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argentina Argentina]. There is much happening in [[preparation]] for the [[events]] that will be forthcoming in the next few months. I will let [[Welmek]] decide whether or not he will [[share]] with you some of what he has been up to. ([[laughter]]) I wish to make a comment to the [[group]] as to your [[understanding]] of [[contact]] with us. There has been much [[confusion]]. There has been many [[inquiries]] amongst yourselves as to what is [[real]], what is not and what is [[expected]], [[anticipated]].

First, it should be known that if you are willing, we [[desire]] to make [[contact]] at some point in time. It is not [[necessary]] that all of you do what David and Michael do. However, it is important that we are able to make this contact if possible. Some of you have asked the [[question]] "Why have I not [[received]] [[communication]] thus far?"

Q: I'll go first [[Welmek]]. Since I was going to ask you this in a [[private]] session, I might as well do it now. Maybe it'll help everybody. Peter and I were discussing, you know we're both [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mormonism Mormons], and a week ago Sunday I went into Cheryl's [[problems]] at [[church]]. That caused real [[difficulties]] for me because we both [[feel]] like we're leading double lives. We come here because we get [[spiritual]] [[growth]] and spiritual [[food]], but yet there's this hanging on to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mormonism Mormon Church] because of all the [[time]], [[energy]] and [[effort]] and the years that I've put into it. And so I kind of [[feel]] this double image. I know from what was said in Salt Lake when we were out there, or Orem rather, that if the [[church]] ever finds that I'm coming here, they have already [[banned]] the [[Urantia Book]]; and if they find that I'm [[talking]] with you, they will [[literally]] [[excommunicate]] both of us, just because I [[believe]] in something they don't. I don't know how to get over that one, around it, under it, over it. I know there's a [[choice]] there, but how do you make that [[choice]]? I'm comfortable here, I'm comfortable with the people, I'm comfortable with you; but there's still...I mean I've got l8 years in that [[church]]. They're already asking me, it's already been hinted that they want me to become Relief Society President. That's a big [[responsibility]] in itself. If I could take it and run with this and (?) I'd be okay with it; but how do I lead the double life and still [[grow]] at the same time?

A: What is the [[church]] to you?

A: What is the [[church]] to you?

A: I would be with you, in a sense. Therefore, I would not miss you. I have told several of you that I will [[work]] with you on [[future]] assignments on other worlds; and I know in my [[heart]] as well as my [[mind]] that we will always be [[brothers and sisters]]. That really is not a fair question to ask because I have a much broader [[perspective]] than you do. Therefore, it is easier for me not to miss you the way you might miss me.

Q: But then you [[understand]] what I'm saying is that if you left, I would miss you and that I would still cling to the [[memories]]. And so I have a lot of [[friends]] all over, from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_Lake_City,_UT Salt Lake] to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virginia Virginia], that are in the [[church]]. And if I leave the church, I'm [[afraid]] a couple of them are going to [[literally]] fall away. There are too many people hanging on to me.

A: Can you [[control]] this?

A: Can you [[control]] this?

Set the example by the life that you [[lead]]. If they do not [[understand]] it, you must ask yourself "How much [[control]] do I have?" If it is a very young child, you have more [[control]]. The older the [[individual]] becomes, on your [[planet]], the less control you seem to have.

Q: Welmek, along those lines, where [[children]] are concerned, that's where I'm having a [[problem]] with my two boys. It's a matter of [[control]]; but I [[think]] really it's also with me, a matter of [[knowing]] how much, actually [[understanding]] how much control I have, especially with my older child. He's 15 and he's immature for his age. He doesn't like to make [[decisions]]. Without going into a big long [[story]], it's hard for me not to rant and rave. I'm a ranter and a raver. It's funny that you said that because even this evening, I noticed that I rant and rave the most when I'm concerned about him and when I'm [[frustrated]] also, naturally. But even when I say to myself "I am not going to go off", I still find myself, I don't scream or anything, but I get upset and I fuss, like (barking [[sound]]) I'm [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bark_(utterance) barking] at him, [[practically]]. I know I am because my [[husband]] tells me I'm barking at him. The thing is, that I don't want to do these things; and it's hard for me to break that [[habit]].

A: There is no [[question]] about this, the [[difficulty]] of breaking [[habits]]. These ways of [[behavior]] have been with you for many years. You have been here just a short time. You make [[sincere]] attempts to make [[changes]]; yet when you find yourself not doing what you really want, that [[frustrates]] you and makes the situation even more [[confusing]], more compounded and more frustrating. Is that not true?

Each time he brings his studies [[home]], he [[achieves]] a certain [[recognition]]. Each time he leaves his studies behind, he goes backwards. You can even take this to the [[point]] of allowing him so much time for his [[games]]. Each time he brings his materials home, he earns, for example, one-half hour of [[play]] time.

Sometimes it is, with [[children]], [[necessary]] to take those things away that they [[desire]] the most in order to make your point. But it is crucial, in my [[opinion]], that you do it in a way that they can, maybe not now, but in time, [[understand]] your [[reason]] and [[motivation]]. Rather than [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bark_(utterance) barking] at him, as you say, make him [[understand]] through [[feeling]] as well as [[thought]], what it is you want to help him accomplish. [[Practice]] these things, think about what I have said; and as you [[formulate]] more specific questions, we will address them later. But this is not an insurmountable [[problem]]. Most important is your [[composure]].

Q: What about it? ([[laughter]])

Q: What about it? ([[laughter]])

A: There are some things, once you [[recognize]] you cannot [[change]], you [[simply]] [[accept]]. But by accepting this does not mean that you give in to the ways of [[thinking]] of your [[associates]]. You must always achieve to [[maintain]] this level of [[awareness]] and even beyond. Therefore, in your [[interaction]] with these people, do not be dragged down to their [[energy]]. Allow yourself to [[maintain]] your own, and hopefully, by example, they may be drawn to you and actually, in [[time]], ask you questions. This may or may not happen. You will have to wait and see. But each time you allow yourself to get [[frustrated]], to get down-hearted, you know what it does to you and you know what it takes in order to overcome it and to just get back to where you were before.

Q: One of the things that I did for myself as I am [[reading]] the [[Jesus papers]] now, I have [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_care child care] in my [[home]] and I know that I don't have to do that for the rest of my life. But I found myself, especially when [[Teaching Mission|this mission]] first began, really having a [[difficult]] time because I felt like everyone else was doing something that was much more important than what I was doing and I felt stuck. I was [[complaining]] and I was [[frustrated]] and all of these things. But then [[reading]] [[the Jesus papers]], everything that he did, he never [[complained]]. He did the task at hand and then moved on to the next. And the thing that I have [[realized]] is that my task at hand may last for two years, but two years out of my entire life is a minute. And so it made it easier, not that I don't have those days of [[frustration]] and complaining, but when I saw what [[Jesus]] did and how as a [[young man]] had to [[126:2 The Death of Joseph|take over the father position]] in his [[family]] and did it all without complaint, took [[responsibility]], it gave me more [[courage]] to face my life in the same way and try to find the [[good]] in every single day. I pray every [[morning]] that I will find the [[good]] in every single day. It does help, when you try to look at it from his [[perspective]].

A: And indeed, it is just that. It is a matter of [[perspective]]. The narrower your perspective, the more [[frustrated]] and [[anxious]] you become. The broader your perspective, the more [[love]]-filled you become. It's a matter of your [[desire]], your [[activity]], as to which [[perspective]] you [[wish]] to take on for yourself. It will not happen overnight. You must [[understand]] these things. You and I have been [[associated]] now for just over 4 months. This is not much [[time]]. The [[habits]] that you have [[developed]] over the years will take time to overcome. I have asked you to do things which you have not really on a [[consistent]] basis done before. Therefore, do not burden yourself terribly with the [[fact]] that you have not [[achieved]] that which you seek to achieve. Give yourself a break, yet don't let up, either. Always, each day, [[worship]] and re-[[dedicate]] yourself and do the best that you can. As we have said, that is all that is being asked of you.

Q: They're putting salt in an open wound.

Q: Believe me, I have made great strides, I think, and of course, everyone has to deal with themselves, and like you say, maybe I'm getting to know myself better because of it, but I have made great strides in dealing with much of what is said and in [[fact]] finding and returning comments using [[humor]] because I seem to poke fun at a lot of [[things]] about life. Comments have been made that I should be a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comedian comedian], things like that, and I'm [[wondering]] if maybe that's part of the way I deal with people, situations, so that I don't resort to [[anger]] and those other things. But it [[amazes]] me how insensitive some people can be, even in jest.

Q: You know, this [[group]], these teachings, when you [[surround]] yourself with people who [[love]] you [[sincerely]], who care, who have the same [[motivations]] and [[desires]] as you, it's [[medicine]] for the [[heart]]. There's no [[doubt]] that without this I don't know where I would be. I'm sure I would be self-destructive; but I'm so [[thankful]] and so [[blessed]], I can't talk about [[repetitive]] [[worship]].

===='''''[[Self Realization]]'''''====

===='''''[[Self Realization]]'''''====

A: I [[wish]] to make two comments and then move on, if I may. First, once again, [[our Master]] will be your [[model]]. You said that you do not [[understand]] how these [[individuals]] toward you the way that they do, so insensitively, so ignorantly, if you will. Think of how the [[leaders]] [[acted]] toward [[the Master]] when they [[literally]] [[crucified]] him. He looked upon them as with all of the [[children]] of this [[planet]] and asked [[the Father]] to [[forgive]] them because they just did not know what they were doing. And I suggest it is with those you [[work]] with, for if they really did [[understand]] you, if they did have a better understanding of themselves, they would not do these things. Lastly, I can give the best [[advice]] to all of you in this way. Whenever you deal with another [[individual]] that causes [[confrontation]] to begin to swell within yourself, [[simply]] look at this [[individual]] as [[Jesus]]. Allow the [[love]] to begin to [[flow]] through you again; and although their [[behavior]] is less than yours, [[simply]] look at them as [[Jesus]] would: [[forgive]] them Father for they do not know what they are doing. For if they did, they would not treat you this way, as they are treating me. You too are a [[part]] of [[Jesus]], just as they; and you would never treat [[our Master]] this way. Would they, if they [[understood]] the [[meaning]] of what I say to you? If you begin to [[focus]] yourself in this way, and [[honestly]] attempt each time you find yourself in these situations to the best of your [[ability]] to [[perceive]] and [[understand]] and [[feel]] it, then in time you will master all of your situations. You will look at all of the [[difficulties]] that [[face]] you and [[realize]] they are nothing more than an [[opportunity]] to [[grow]] once again. You will [[actually]] give [[thanks]] for those [[obstacles]], those difficult situations that you face; for in the long run, as you look back upon your life, you will see that they were [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Step-stone_bridge stepping stones] to lead you closer to [[the Father]], that very thing which you have been [[praying]] for all along.

With that being said, I wish to make an [[announcement]]. There is another, actually there are several who have been receiving [[communication]] for the past few weeks and some the past few days. This pleases me deeply. Linda Buselli has been [[receiving]] [[communication]] for some time. We will now ask her to join Michael and David in [[speaking]] out loud. What I [[wish]] to do when I turn this [[meeting]] over to her as my [[voice]] [[mechanism]] is to open up this session for general questions and answers. I [[realize]] that I have not addressed that which I told you I would as far as [[parental]] and [[brotherly]] [[love]]; and if you wish to address [[questions]] in this way, we will. This will be a [[practice]] session for her. I [[understand]] that you all [[love]] her and that you must [[realize]] the somewhat nervous situation that this will create within her. For any of you that [[receive]] [[communication]], your [[supreme]] [[desire]] is to never mislead, never misguide and always [[hope]] that what you receive is actually that of either another being or of your [[higher self]]. As I have told you before, it matters not the [[source]] as much as the [[content]]. Ask your [[questions]] freely to me, and I will [[respond]] through her. I will ask that those who feel comfortable to [[engage]] her in your [[private]] sessions, for as you know we are losing David temporarily for most of the private sessions he has volunteered to do. I do not [[wish]] to lose the [[opportunity]] to speak to you. Therefore, it is time for Linda to become a part of the [[speaking]] group. One moment please.

Q: Welmek, I have a [[question]] on a [[different]] subject. The speaker that spoke to us during our opening said that we had done things as a [[group]] that had been helpful. Can you [[explain]] what those things are? And I [[assume]] that that was helpful to [[Teaching Mission|the mission]].

A: Every [[group]] has a part in the [[mission]] as a [[whole]]. Your group has been, partly because of its [[numbers]], particularly active in certain areas. As I have spoken of before, your [[support]] of other [[groups]] is more important than you [[realize]]. There is [[energy]] generated in a group of this size that is useful and can be helpful to other groups in a [[support]] [[frame of reference]]. Many of you are in [[contact]] [[personally]] with those in other groups. You have [[stimulated]] an interest in groups that might not yet have formed without this additional help. All of these things help the [[mission]] more than you [[realize]]. There is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_effect ripple effect], as you would call it.
