Group (Leah, Gerdean, Ann and Hunnah): Good evening.

TOMAS: I am stalling in [[anticipation]] of Hunnah joining us, but I cannot stall for long, for you are (already) late getting started. Yes, it is as always [[exciting]] to be with you in your most delightful [[configuration]]. There are times, flock, when you are quite amusing and we delight to see you in your light-heartedness; it is part of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family_of_Man family of man], you see, that you can be children [[together]] and [[laugh]] and giggle.

===='''''[[Joy]]'''''====

I would like to point out to you, indeed and in [[fact]], that part of the [[dark]] cloud that shrouds Urantia is based on the dark gray hues of seriousness, of [[pain]], of [[responsibility]], of [[crucifixion]], of blame, and any number of [[burdens]]. When you have begun to feel the lightness of [[being]] that comes from knowing the [[love]] of the Father, you can relax your [[armor]] in [[joy]] of kinship, in delight of childlike [[laughter]].

When you have begun to feel the lightness of [[being]] that comes from knowing the [[love]] of the Father, you can relax your [[armor]] in [[joy]] of kinship, in delight of childlike [[laughter]].

Now, bear in [[mind]] your [[peers]], and not only your [[immediate]] peers but your peers [[planet]] wide -- whether they are young or old, dark or light, short or tall, whether they are [[Christian]] or [[Jewish]], [[Buddhist]] or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam Islamic], whether they are [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pygmy_peoples#Australia Australian pygmies] or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Native_American_elder Native American tribal elders] -- no matter what [[background]], [[gender]], educational [[status]] or whatever -- these are your brothers and sisters, [[sharing]] a natal sphere with you.

In the [[course]] of time you and millions of others, as well as [[Michael]], will be able to look back and call [[Urantia]] your [[home]] planet, but looking at your [[peers]] across the world and their many, many [[diverse]] [[understandings]] of what must be [[truth, beauty, and goodness]] to them, will surely set up in your mind an [[understanding]] of the very, very diverse aspects of [[humanity]], and all of these aspects of humanity have had certain [[evolutionary]] [[burdens]] to bear. And the [[yoke]] of their [[burdens]] and the burdens of their [[ancestors]] is often carried on their own shoulders for they fear letting go of their [[legacy]] lest somehow it be lost or disrespected in the [[process]].

The only way you can ever correct a [[problem]] is to begin with yourself. If in some [[lazy]] way in your experience you have supported negative situations that harm other people, your attention will be brought to it and you will erase it from your [[pattern]]. It will be repugnant to you. You will not buy things that [[support]] injurious activities; you will not speak words that will harm; you will not entertain yourselves with programs or [[books]] that will hold you down and pull you back into the old patterns; and if you want to change the entire situation, you have to begin with yourself.

So I wish you well in the [[practice]] of new [[self]]-[[discipline]] in areas of your own [[experience]] that you have been too [[busy]] to notice, or perhaps you could say, as you stretch you will bump into the new areas that are not going to go with you; you are not going to allow them to remain with you. It is not a clean-up program; it is not a [http://www.rotorooter.com/ roto-rooting] program; it is just that you will attend to the situation as it comes to you so that you may continue to [[travel]] in this new way of living. Tomas? You know I had a [[wonderful]] time.

Gerdean: I have a question, Tomas, or Merium, and it has to do with what you were talking about. It reminds me of the other day I got a bunch of [[books]] in for my shop. They're not all [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Catholicism Catholic] literature, but quite a bit of them are; some of them are quite [[orthodox]], some are far more [[liberal]], even including what I'd call transmissions or [[channeling]], so it's a full range of [[literature]], religious literature. A couple of them have to do with [[stigmata]].

My mother -- I don't know what the incident was that [[stigmata]] came up with her, but she -- in her inimitable style (which is probably the way of most people) said, "Oh, I don't believe in that!" and that finished it; the subject was over because, "I don't believe in that. Period." I said, "Well, mother, I don't either, however I like to know about what other people [[believe]] so that when I talk to them I can [[converse]] [[intelligently]]." Well, she could understand the [[wisdom]] of that, and this is kind of what my question relates to:

MERIUM: There is an [[attitude]] that you may adapt that is an attitude that will let you travel anywhere and talk to anyone about anything, and that is almost a [[manner]] of being an [[ambassador]]. If you were a guest in another country, it would never occur to you, perhaps, to speak [[negatively]] of the [[customs]] of that area you are [[visiting]]. It has a lot to do with good [[manners]], and as you mature in your [[growth]] and you have a wider [[scope]] and your peripheral [[vision]] is extended, and you simply see the earth as being [[seeded]] with so many different [[cultures]], and within the cultures a form of [[evolution]] taking place within each culture (some of them are in movement and some of them [[satisfied]] with the way it's been for 3,000 years) that after awhile you see enough of these [[communities]] that you will feel very comfortable with the [[fact]] that that's just the way it is in this particular situation.

And you will [[become]] a beholder of that [[culture]] and you will see, if you stay in the culture -- let us say if you went to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_river Amazon region] and you were visiting a [[tribal]] [[community]], you would not . .. the longer you stayed, you would find that within the framework of that tribal unit there would be varying [[degrees]] of [[beliefs]] and [[devotion]] to their thought patterns and there would still be, in that [[private]] community, those that were ready to stretch and leave, perhaps, but have not, or who want to develop anew and expand.

This is a matter of [[consciousness]]. As the consciousness of the [[individual]] evolves, then they will find themselves uncomfortable with the [[pattern]] where they are and they will either leave and seek out and develop more or they will continue to [[explore]], and this is in a sense what television has done for you; it has brought this [[opportunity]] for you to expand your awareness of this [[world]] that you live in, and to hear the [[opinions]] and the [[strengths]] and [[weaknesses]] of the [[cultures]] individually and collectively.

When you come to these gatherings and you [[share]], you hear your outgrown [[ideas]] and you also are here with a cup so that it might be filled with a delicious [[aromatic]] [[presence]] of the new [[thought]], the new [[comprehension]], and the new fulfillment that it brings. So I'm pleased that you brought this up.

Whether it is [[stigmata]] or whether the [[belief]] is in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_religion India] or in ancient [[chantings]], statements of the [[Tradition|old religions of the world]], there is no religious [[practice]] on earth today that will not be cleansed, because those that it comes to will [[become]] more and more [[enlightened]] and they will [[realize]] that they have outgrown the [[suspicions]] and [[darkness]] and the [[control]] that the old practices and [[beliefs]] have carried with them.

They are like chains, and you cannot -- they will lay around misused and will be discarded with the fullness. This is indeed going on all around you. You see the [[churches]] are having to involve all members of the [[family]] in the services because the [[monastic]] life that was forced upon people who were not ready for it, the [[celibate]] life, that they were not ready to handle, they were not lifted in [[consciousness]] to their new [[definition]] to what that meant -- these are all [[practices]] that have to be re-thought and [[purified]].

Gerdean: It is one of those words that when I think in terms of my brothers across [[the world]], there's nothing really great about being [[Christian]] to much of my brothers and sisters on Urantia. In fact, Christianity in many ways is a disgrace to the man who Christianity was named after. There's a lot of things about Christianity that is not Christ-like nor is it [[God-like]] nor is it anything that I would like to [[emulate]] or be part of. It's just one of those words that has . .. it has so many connotations that I don't think that it's anything particular to be [[proud]] of!

Those who follow Christ, those who attend [[church]] at least, are so divided amongst themselves . ..

I've got one for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jehovah's_Witnesses Jehovah's Witnesses] here, I've got a Seventh Day Adventist here, I've got maybe 12 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Catholicism Catholic] books, I don't know how many [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presbyterianism Presbyterian] books -- and they don't talk to each other! and they don't [[agree]] with each other! . .. and I don't want to associate myself with a bunch of people who can sit and look at the same [[Christ]] and argue about . .. other things, you know? I don't know how to say that.

I'm saying I don't want to be regarded as [[Christian]], is what I'm saying. I don't mind being a follower of [[Jesus]]. I am, indeed, a follower of Jesus, but I don't like the handle of "Christian." It does nothing for me, and I think that it does much damage to [[Hebrews]], for example, and our friends at [http://niagara-gazette.com/wallenda/x514654985/WALLENDA-WALK-Life-returns-to-the-Turtle the Turtle] -- those who do [[aspire]] to have other religious leaders welcomed into the family of man.

I do know that I have to [[honor]] these other spirit teachers who have a lot to offer their devotees.

I'm not speaking down about [[Christ Michael]]. I love him infinitely. I'm trying to figure out how to be an effective teacher, how to convey [[information]], have [[correspondence]], [[communication]] with people without being judgmental -- which I'm beginning to [[realize]] that, in my limited Christian [[comprehension]], I'm very [[ignorant]].

There is a teacher today who makes constant [[reference]] to becoming a [[Buddha]]. If the person who is of Christian [[background]] were to read that, the unfamiliarity and misunderstanding or the lack of [[understanding]] would be there because they could be like a Baby and be [[challenged]] and threatened that there would be something greater than perhaps they have found, or they would be at the other end of the [[spectrum]], near the 10, that would say, "Of course, become a Buddha, become the best, radiant example of working [[belief]] system for what your [[ideal]] is."

If you were a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam Muslim] and you lived to the highest [[devotion]] to that form of Muslim [[belief]] and [[behavior]], it would make you no lesser or no greater than anyone else; it would simply be your [[frame of reference]].

You know that it's not [[necessary]] to correct anyone unless they ask for your [[assistance]]. One of the greatest hallmarks of achievement in the [[UB|Urantia]] gatherings that have come with the [[Teaching Mission]] is to acquaint you, in [[truth]], with the way [[the Master]] spoke to those of all levels of awareness.

You are in [[ascending]] [[mode]]. There will be days when you will [[feel]] as if this is what it must be like, and there will be days when the old guard will bind you like an outgrown pair of shoes, so I am pleased that this [[conversation]] has gone the way it has because it will be put in print and the [[human]] finds [[reading]] very, very [[satisfying]].

Hunnah heard something very interesting today regarding seeing something on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television television] and [[reading]]. When you read, you can stop, [[ponder]], pick up again and go on, but when you have something in your face and it is thrust directly at you, as it is in the movement of television, you cannot pause and look at the situation again; you cannot look at the scene and savor another aspect of it; or you cannot [[correct]] something that you [[thought]] you saw and did not see [[accurately]] or you did not hear it accurately.

You have tapes today. You can play them again and say, "Oh, I didn't hear that before!" You can re-read a [[book]] and say, "That was [[wonderful]]! I missed that the last time!" But the television [[media]] is thrust at you, snatched away, and moved on so quickly that you could easily [[receive]] mis-information. I [[hope]] that will be the same with this [[conversation]]. You will hear it at one level; you will hear it in [[spirit]] regardless, because that is where we are connecting. You have the [[privilege]] of re-reading what you hear and as we talk, I am not teaching you [[profound]] [[truths]]! We are re-mediating truth, and filtering it so that you might be able to apply what you know to have given you this truth.

And along the same lines, [[Michael]] has asked that all his children come together, and yet, as we [[discussed]] this evening, how can that be possible when everyone is so different, everyone is so individual? They have their own [[belief]] systems and, as the [[races]] have their [[cultures]], the natures have their cultures, these are things that will not disappear over night, nor are they necessarily [[supposed]] to. But it can be done under the umbrella of the [[Divine]].

Yes, we would [[hope]] to see it under the banner of [[Michael]], and in time that will be the case. It is His world and He will prevail, but for now let [[love]] reign. Let it reign upon the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkey Turks] and the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sikhs Sikhs] and the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argentina Argentineans] and the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thailand Thai], on the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinduism Hindus], on the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddhism Buddhists], on the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judaism Hebrews] and on the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity Christians], on the [[orthodox]] and the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterodoxy unorthodox].

It has, again, been a true [[privilege]] to be with you. It is [[difficult]], children, sometimes, to present ourselves when you are so lovely and frolicking and we come in and get so heavy, but that is the [[nature]] of our assignment, and now we are glad to remove ourselves that you may again be lighthearted.
