Changes

Tonight I wish to [[speak]] on the welfare of your brethren and your [[understanding]] [[responsibility]] for it. Many times in our lives we come in situations which evoke a [[sympathetic]] [[response]] for a fellow [[human being]]. Every day is filled with these [[actions]] and [[responses]] to them. That is, we each respond to the [[presence]] of another human in our own [[unique]] [[manner]] of sympathizing.

The old adage "Am I my brother's keeper,"[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Genesis#Chapter_.4] yes and no. Each [[person]] has a certain [[radius]] of [[responsibility]] for those immediately within that [[circle]] of [[influence]]. Each person, of course, cannot be responsible for an entire [[community]] or state or indeed the world. As I have said, true [[love]] is born in an attitude of thoroughgoing [[sympathetic]] understanding of one's fellows. This understanding must, perforce, be [[limited]] to only a [[relative]] few. [[Urantia text|The book]] states that one cannot by mere [[force]] of will love the world. Love exists only between [[personalities]], not between an [[abstraction]] and a [[personality]].

As I said, to see a person through the eyes of your greater self, to allow your [[Thought Adjuster|Inner Spirit]] to communicate His [[vision]] of another, is your greatest [[opportunity]] for increased understanding of that person. You see, [[our Father]] sees us all as little [[children]], and each little child is behaving towards the other children in certain ways. If you may see that in circumstances where your brother or sister is troublesome to you, you may distance yourself from that situation which allows you to be able to have a more [[insightful]] view of this person and a more [[forgiving]] [[nature]] towards him or her. And I say this as a [[profound]] reality reaction [[feeling]]. This is not, again, a thought [[abstraction]] which you may do as an [[intellectual]] exercise. This is a true thought reality [[perception]] [[feeling]].

Tonight I would like to enter into a [[discussion]] of the [[celestial]] chambers of the [[first mansion world]]. "In my Father's house are many [[mansion]]s." This is referring to actual [[structures]] on the [[mansion worlds]]. The worlds are [[Architectural spheres|architectural]], and the [[structures]] are made of [[morontia]] [[materials]]. You may picture in your [[minds]] a very fine and [[beautiful]] tile or marble like substance which is more fine or delicate in [[molecular]] level construction than is [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marble marble]. The [[molecular]] [[structure]] is [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexagonal hexagonal], which makes this stone very fine, almost [[crystalline]] in structure, but it more closely resembles stone to the eye. These buildings are very large and have many rooms and corridors within them. Each wing or separate area has many small rooms for [[repersonalization]]. This I speak of is on the [[first mansion world]] the [[resurrection halls]].

Each [[person]] is [[resurrected]] separately and [[alone]], [[separated]] from all the others. A [[morontia companion]] greets each new arrival [[individually]] upon [[awakening]]. The vast roll call of a [[dispensation]] is still administered on an [[individual]] level. The [[beauty]] and [[grandeur]] of these fine [[structures]] are very [[awe]] [[inspiring]] and amazing to the [[awakened]] one. The expanded [[senses]] of [[color]] and [[sound]] are immediately apparent. More of the [[spectrum]] of [[light]] is visible, and [[color]] is greatly enhanced and expanded so that colors can be [[perceived]] on a more [[subtle]] and fine level than you can perceive them now. [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Sense#Audition Hearing] is expanded similarly and [[music]] becomes more intricate in that the [[notes]] can be heard on a more [[subtle]] level, also. In both [[sight]] and hearing, [[appreciation]] for [[beauty]] is greatly enhanced and broadened.

Also by [[analogy]] to these [[physical]] [[senses]], if you can [[imagine]] the [[mind]] [[capacity]] level to be similarly broadened and the ability to [[discern]] [[subtleties]], again, is enhanced, then you will have a fair [[understanding]] of how you will be on [[waking]]. Other [[senses]] are enhanced, and spiritual senses, of course, are greatly enhanced. Your [[ability]] to [[discern]] your [[Thought Adjuster]] will be greatly [[magnified]]. Also, you will be able to greet your [[Guardian Angel]] in a personal way, [[face]] to face as it were.
