B1: "Daniel, we are glad to see B5 back with us and he brought a [[friend]]. I would like to have him introduce him at this time."
   −
B5: Daniel, this is B5. I haven't been here for a while, along with me I brought a friend named C7. He is from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigby,_Idaho Rigby]. We have talked a little bit over the last ten months about the [[Urantia Book]], about some of the papers, about [[God]]'s [[love]], about the purpose of our lives and why we are here, are where me might possibly be going. C7 and I think a lot along the same lines, even though he is roughly ten years younger than I am. Maybe you could give him some [[insight]] as to what the [[Teaching Mission]] is and so on."

Daniel: "B5, I am so [[happy]] to have you back with us in [[physical]] [[presence]], even though in the spiritual realm you have not been away. I have been with you often, my [[friend]]. And I would like to [[congratulate]] you in your striving for [[growth]], even though it is [[difficult]] to come to terms with, indeed, the [[purpose]] and [[function]] of life. Your [[sharing]] with C7 is [[evidence]] of your solidness despite your upheavals in human difficulties. The spirit is [[strong]] and will continue to flourish, my [[friend]], when you take and make the [[effort]]. Indeed, does [[the Father]] love you. And C7, welcome. And I and many of the [[beings]] here enjoyed a good [[chuckle]] in your reference to age. For you all are [[babes]] to us!(much [[laughter]])

Daniel: "An excellent question; one most [[difficult]] to answer! In any of these kinds of things one must first of all come to the [[realization]] that there can be no release, there can be no [[peace]], so to speak, until you are willing to let go. And often will say, 'But I am willing. I have tried.' And yet there is still this lingering on. And that is the [[point]] where you are now. You have released much, let go of much, but there are the tail endings, so to speak, that still grip you and hold you in this limbo land. And to break loose of this, one must view it from various levels. There is, of course, the obvious of there not really being a total [[desire]] for release; that the release that you are hoping for is still somewhat [[motivated]] by external [[realities]]. When you can come to wanting to release from an internal [[perspective]], because this is what you [[desire]], this is what would [[motivate]] you, then release is much easier, is more [[assured]].

Because you are [[human]] and because you have [[memory]] and a [[mind]] set, you are also part of a [[pattern]]. And if you will, let me give you an [[analogy]]. In the use of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homeopathy homeopathic] remedies one takes a potion that is diluted many times over to [[cure]] a certain element. This potion is diluted many, many, many times; so much, in [[fact]], that one would say that the original [[molecule]] from which this potion was at one time known, is no longer viable, it is so spread out, is so diluted. Yet when this remedy is given, the more diluted it is the more [[effect]] it has on the person. And the reason being is that the patterning of this potion is still in place. All of you, my friends, are like this remedy, in that no matter how much you dilute and break down the solid [[barrier]] of the [[guilt]] or [[shame]] or whatever it is you wish to release, there is still within your [[being]] this patterning. And often times this patterning can be more potent than the whole [[molecule]]. Do you see? And so when you can [[understand]] that, then when these types of [[emotions]] or [[feelings]] come up, if you will remember that it is but the patterning that is coming up only, and no longer the solid [[molecule]], at that point, then, you are more able to release and let it go. No longer, if you truly [[desire]] not to have the [[shame]] or [[guilt]], no longer will it be the solid full [[molecule]], but will be diluted. And each time you dilute it and dilute it, it becomes less and is only more a [[pattern]]. And the pattern, then, is that which you can deal with, because you can see and [[realize]] that it is but a pattern.

It is nothing that can hold on to you unless you hold on to it. And while that [[pattern]] may [[emerge]], you have the [[power]] to [[change]] it. To affirm, to [[visualize]], to do any of these things is helpful. The most effective way is to daily ask [[the Father]] for [[guidance]], daily [[dilute]] this so that it no longer has the [[power]] over you. And throughout life, throughout all of your life, those things which have been a part of you will at times [[emerge]]. You do not have to be the [[victim]] of them! You can hold the [[power]] over them, if you truly [[desire]] to, if you truly wish to break the [[cycle]]. [[Prayer]] spent with [[the Father]] will help. Often times and this is not held out to be a situation for you, my friend, L2, but for all of you and for all of those who read these [[transcripts]], often times those [[trapped]] by [[guilt]] and [[shame]] or the like are unable to let go because there is another underlying [[motive]] for keeping that [[guilt]] and [[shame]] a part of you. The [[motive]] can be [[attention]] from others, can be many things. Those who truly [[wish]] to change must [[examine]] [[motives]], must be able to take the higher road. It is like the [[person]] who is hearing the alarm go off in the [[morning]]. And while you are not [[feeling]] like you wish to get out of bed, you are rather wanting to pull the covers overhead and stay there. This is nice. You also [[realize]] that by not getting up and getting out of bed, your job is on the line! What [[motive]] will you follow? Which is more important? Does this help?"
