Foehn:....I have long awaited this meeting, and look forward to working with this [[[unique]]] collection of [[minds]]. My goal is to establish unity among this [[group]]. I would [[hope]] that all barriers [arising from] your concern for [[technique]] and precision of the transmission be removed from our meeting. My name is Fon, or, I am known by that name by Helen, with whom I have been praying. Although our progress is encouraging, the technique of this communication is not yet perfected.

Prepare your minds, assemble your thoughts, put aside your opinions and projections as to what may happen here, and concentrate on the circumstances that brought together this collection [of people]. The great love here is exceeded only by great faith. You are being observed by many....A union of minds is necessary for the further enactment of Michael's plan....I am one of many assigned specifically to unification of minds in preparation for the unity of Teachers, which is something I can't further explain [at this time]....It is necessary to capitalize on the talents of individuals in the Teaching Mission, as recognized by Teachers, in an organized effort [to] assign to appropriate individuals those tasks which they may best accept.

It brings me great pleasure to see this circle of friends working, overcoming barriers which still concern us and which prohibit growth....These barriers must be overcome....Through stillness of mind your fears and concerns will diminish....My message to you is to assimilate the collection of thoughts you have received, take them into the stillness, and allow them, like incense, to steep; let them settle in your mind, and intermingle with love, humor, and praise. These thoughts are valid, but your concerns are human. Trust your faith. Commit to finding the time during the day to communicate your concerns.

This collection of minds has such potential, yet this potential is limited only by the perfectionism you demand upon yourselves. Your errors will teach you, and [they] are inevitable. Your fear of these errors hinders the [realization] of the potential. Realize your faith is all that is necessary.....

It is our goal to unite the minds of teachers and receivers....I am specifically assigned to the unity of minds. [This work] is evolving as we speak, and is dependent on you, as we speak. At this moment, other groups are participating in this exercise in unity. Other teachers have also taken this opportunity to practice [this linkage]....This is a learning process [for all of us]....[This experiment] is evolving in ways even we are not sure of. Again, this evolution depends on your experience.

Are these teachings that we have not yet heard?

−

Some, but more yet to come. Be at peace, for there will be time Byron....RondEL awaits contact with you. He has tried to contact you, yet he has met with difficulty. There will be resumption of his contact....Continue to practice the stillness.

.....[Do] nothing different. There was more that needs to be communicated, for as the Teaching Mission progresses, we have lagged in our part of the Mission....Our group is....When we made contact in Oklahoma City, there was much excitement and enthusiasm, and yet [it appears] that the group [may have] dissolved. It is vital to maintain the group or there will be difficulty in transmitting. We have chosen [help] through Ellen's voice to communicate this concern for we are lacking in other forms of communication at this time.

−

Please be advised that your group was chosen from [among] many, and to lose this contact would be a great defeat for the Teaching Mission. There are many lessons yet to learn, although time [is or has been] lost. We are looking forward to a time when we all will meet again. It is vital....we reach [?] greater numbers, and we are hoping, because of earlier successes, to continue to transmit information later to be used in the Mission. Many of you us you have not yet learned of, and we are awaiting your readiness. Please be made aware of the tenuous circumstances.

Line 63: Line 65:

B: Is there a lesson for us today?

−

Foehn: Indeed there are many things to discuss today. You are in the presence of myself, Foehn; RondEL is at hand for questions....We are not in an observational session. Personal needs may be discussed. Needs for spiritual growth should be the limitations of this discussion.

B: Do you have anything Foehn you would like to say to us today as an opening, either to the [[group]] or to an [[individual]]?

Foehn: Anelia would like to step forward today. Go ahead Anelia....

Anelia:....My name is Anelia. I am in partnership with Foehn. I am to carry messages regarding the logistics of your plans.

+

Anelia:....My name is Anelia. I am in [[partnership]] with Foehn. I am to carry [[messages]] regarding the [[logistics]] of your [[plans]].

B: Yes Anelia.

===Lesson===

−

Anelia: You have done well in your communications with one another and you are to be commended....Your minds are gradually being prepared for more direct communication....Indeed there is a measure of discrepancy between our true impulse to you and what you may perceive. However, trust your perceptions, and go with the inner voice. It would be wise to listen intently and trust what you hear. Do not concern yourselves with discrepancies in interpretation. Discrepancies have been measured and are part of the plan....

−

Do not be afraid to ask questions that will rely on faith in the interpretation of the answers that are given. Time-space relations are complex; you will never be able to ask questions within the limits of your language that could allow for the complete understanding of the answer, even if I was able to find ways other than verbal communication to answer these questions. You will have to rely on faith that through the progression of growth prepared for you after your completion of your walk on this planet that you will indeed graduate into understanding the interrelated activities of the Paradise ascension. Trust and faith and hope in the knowing must be the motivation in the growing.

===Dialogue===

B: Anelia, I have been trying to write on the subject of growth. Using the language of the Urantia Book, progress is defined as the addition of new meaning to experience; growth is defined as felt perception of value, and the perception of new meanings of these values. Could you say more about the feeling dimension, the notion that quality or value is something that is "felt" as is said in the Book. This is an ongoing question for me and for many. What more can you say about the role of feeling in soul development?

Anelia: I will turn this question, which is not a [[logistical]] one, over to a [[woman]], a [[feminine]] presence. Josephine has been [[prepared]] for such an occasion....

−

Josephine:....As I look upon you I see one who has a great deal of respect for the impact words may have on one another. This respect is one of the values to be discussed. Yet the emotion resulting from respect is fear. Fear is the emotion which interplays with the value of respect. Many of you could do good to contemplate on the times that fear keeps you from respecting others. The differences in your approach to situations is one of values. Remember that values are interplayed with culture. Your value system keeps the people on this planet at a level of conflict. Yet the emotions that make you brothers in this world result from fear of the loss of respect for each other's values. As diverse as the cultures of your peoples are there is a goal to reach a level of respect on this planet in the diversity of culture, not however in the diversity of values....

−

B: I understand you to mean that values are something apart from culture. Culture is an arena in which individuals discover or select values, which they embody in everyday life. But the values are something that comes from above, that are from God, that are self-existing; they are not invented, they are discovered. But there is a differential in discovery across cultures and of course across individuals. Is that at least a partial restatement of what you mean?

−

Josephine: Indeed, perhaps if I draw you a picture. Consider the seed -- the soul -- planted in the soil of oneness. As it takes root, it branches out in many directions. As it comes across a rock, it is forced to choose another path. As it searches for nourishment it grows deep and wide, and occasionally it tops the surface and must resume its search in another direction as it realizes the error of its growth.

−

As the seed flourishes into a young plant it is faced with the influences of its environment. Not only must it endure atmospheric influences, it must fear the feet of those who tread upon it, and it must offer itself as nourishment to those who may need it. But yet it continues to grow, protected by the elements of chance that it will become a fully mature plant.

But yet it continues to [[grow]], protected by the elements of [[chance]] that it will become a fully [[mature]] plant.

−

The roots symbolize your planet. You have areas of fertile ground, which offer good homestead for your families. As the plant grows, you can see it is merely a development of its seed. It is not miraculous that it grows; growth is merely part of its make-up. The shape of growth, however, the bend of the stem, the number of its leaves, its color and its fruit, however, symbolize the many aspects we must understand in the makeup of your people.

−

Consider the stem to be your body. You have been placed on this planet and you must grow. As you reach out, you begin to express yourself in the culture that you have been planted in. Yet, within you feel a need to stretch one way and seek sunlight in another. This is the value I express in this analogy. Plants search for sun; you search for truth. As all plants search for sun, all men search for truth. This truth-seeking nature is indeed one which sources itself from spiritual fertilization.

−

The value-system is intertwined with your own capacity to interpret the will of God within you. Indeed it is a fine line between the inherent capacities of your genetic make up and the spiritual capacities of your worshipful nature. Values are not totally spiritual as a result. Yet within them is a fragment of superimposed manifestations of God's potential for you.

The fruit of this growth is what we as a body are trying to nurture. It is not the kind of fruit, or the taste, that is our goal. Simply, we must want [?] for the productivity of your beings....we simply cannot allow growth without fruit.

The feelings that I have been chosen to try and teach are indeed very much felt by the feminine race on this planet. The differences between the sexes are considered in great depth and it is true that those of those who have felt the emotions can best describe them.

Many men do not allow these emotions to be felt. It is not because they are men that they are not chosen to approach this topic; it is because they must be able to relate the expression of this wordless language in order to best teach. When you listen to my word it is nice that you want to be exact in your interpretation, but it is not necessary, for it is truly a language without words. Your feelings and mine are in tune.

Do not be overwhelmed by the outflow of these emotions. Many of them are necessary; some are not, though, however. It would be wise for you to find ways to express these emotions productively.

Son, you have indeed done well. In this past few days I have been pleased with your progress. I must apologize for the impact I had in my last message. [This refers to a previous transmission to the group that was not taped].

My emphasis on the need for organizational preparation was perhaps too strong, considering your current state....Your questions are many. Please begin.

===Opening===

Zion:...I Zion, am here to speak to you of matters of great importance. I am beckoned to your side to assure you of your purpose in this mission, the coming of Michael to Urantia. I am here to assure you of the gifts that are to come which will be beheld by all who care to join. We are here for a great purpose. Individually, we bring to you inspiration and beckon you to listen. I bring riches in the form of words; however, let it be known that these words translated into feeling will become your personhood, will last throughout eternity....

Josephine: Trust beheld in one's heart includes faith, this is true, for when one trusts, faith must ensue. We are here and you ask of us questions which demonstrate your belief, your faith in us. You are trusting information received through a channel and distributed to your ears. A connection is found here -- faith equals trust; trust is not distant from faith. When one brings into any situation love, there one finds the highest achievement of trust/faith. Carry faith with you my son, and trust will follow as a close companion. Any other questions?

S: Last week I had a most extraordinary experience. I laid under a pine tree and I felt I received guidance from you, and the guidance was that there would be a channel that will open in my head, when the time was right. And I smelled a most wonderful smell, I think it was a sweet pea smell. I have two questions. The first is, what may I do to help facilitate the opening of the channel? And the second is, I would like to know my teacher's name.

RondEL: Jacob, we have observed you over the past few months and are aware of changes occurring within and without your group. We are observing, channeling, and entering others' consciousness in order that they may be prepared to join and be a part of the Mission. If you were to forbid or in any way dishonor one's interest, or curiosity, in exploring what it is you offer, then others may be lost. Do not bar doors. When we speak of love, we intend for love to be heard clearly, resonating, in your hearts, so that others may be attracted. If you were to convey disregard for others' interest in this love, it would be unpardonable, for this is why we are here. Mention not to others of your concern of their entering your group. Mention only your willingness to welcome and participate with all who wish to bask in God's love. Our Father commands this. It is your responsibility as a willing participant, in this, the Teaching Mission. Therefore, allow for others to be advised of your progress. We are pleased with the progress we have seen in your group.

Once contacted, a person never forgets, feels, to the marrow of his being, the rightfulness of his place in the Mission. Calm is in order, for it is not an anxious choice. It is one of glory. Behold the spirit of others cupped in your hands, like a fragile image of God. [Note] the nurturing required for enhancement of the soul. Open like a vessel to the needs of others in this way, for you know we have helped you as we have helped others. Guide them to us. Gently, let them know.... [end tape]

Truth exists only in your heart my son. Fact's are a function of the mind's purpose in utilizing truth for potentially negative purposes such as the dissection of society in to factions and groups differing in religious decisions/choices, religious beliefs. Many religions believe in truth based on what may be perceived as fact, however, fact cannot be contained in a book and then illustrated as truth. This cannot be, for truth precedes all knowledge, and therefore we must be concerned with unifying symbols and languages and the matter of truth rather than in...factual responses to an extensive universe.

Michael: My son, you are worthy of great love. God bless you. To others who walk in the shadows of fear I raise my hands in the glory of our Father's love and rain down upon their hearts waters which sift through gently, cleansing, purifying all the way down, raising up to the heavens their faith [with a] prayer that all life shall be rekindled on this planet you call Urantia. I am here. I am one. We are unity...in spirit.

S: It is hard for me to find the correct--well, not the correct, but the most precise words to use so I hope you will be patient with me in formulating this question. As I walk ~~torough~~ my life, each person that I see I try to love them to the best of my ability and see the image of God in each person--and sometimes it is more difficult with some people than others. And I find with a certain type of person, a person I believe, I perceive, to be afraid, I become angry at their inability at that time to be able to receive the love that I have to offer them. I feel that this is a mistake on my part and I would like guidance to know how to fully open my heart to people and give them the love that I have without demanding or expecting anything in return or feeling hurt when they are not able to receive it. I would appreciate any guidance you have to offer me on this matter.

At this level I often experience much frustration with those who I wish to help, but are unprepared or unrevealed in the gifts that love can offer. I am instructed however to exercise much forgiveness in this experience....For those who are in pain, in turmoil -- those who are stuck in fear -- truly deserve much more unconditional love and forgiveness, for they require healing beyond those who have already accepted and learned the ways of love. I am also advised to speak [end of side one of tape]....I am free to say at this time that self-forgiveness facilitates healing. Embrace your own spirit, then continue to love others, as it should be.

B: A dangling item is the question of what, teachers, is the role of the Urantia Book in the Teaching Mission? I have become confused because of a statement that was printed somewhere that the book is not necessarily central or even germane to the TM. Is there anything that you might say to help me in my confusion over that -- either now or later?

Michael: My son, make no excuses for excluding others [inaudible]. Urantia has followed many courses, one of which includes the Urantia Book. It is essential to remember its beauty, its simple message.... And yet, be reminded that it is only a source of which there are many others. If I were to entrust all of my teachings only to those who knew of the writings of the Urantia movement, how quickly do you believe my message would spread?

B: Indeed slowly, as we have seen since the book was brought here.

Michael: Then you see my intent is to hasten the message. Many have found peace in alternate ways created by the stirrings of their individual spirits. There is no separation nor distinction between those who seek God's wisdom and those who seek God. Rest assured I am in charge of channeling the message in the most desirable and influential manner.

S: My intent has been and will always be, to serve God and follow his--to do God's will and follow his commandments. You may sense in me confusion as to my perception of who you are and my absolute determination to follow only the person I know as Christ or Jesus or Michael. My confusion after all these years of who people told me that Jesus is and my determination to only be true to the true son of God. I ask that you help me understand your relationship to that person that was Jesus and also help me understand--I'll say it again. I pledge myself body, soul and spirit to God and the true Son of God. I have heard so many different stories for so long, about who Jesus is, that I have never been able to completely pledge myself to the idea that people have of Jesus, I would ask your help in this matter.
