Tom: [[2001-02-05-Spiritual Circuit|Last week's lesson on circuits]] painted a whole new framework for me. Physically you spoke of plugging into [[circuits]] like into a toaster, or like a key for an automobile. Perhaps everyone in a swimming pool [[shares]] a [[circuit]], or everyone who has eaten a certain fruit perhaps aligned in a similar circuit. Philosophically everyone who has seen the same [[movie]], [[read]] the same book, etc., has availed themselves of the same circuit. I assume you access [[spiritual circuits]] through, one, [[stillness]] and [[prayer]], two, by [[service]] and, three, by asking. How do I access spiritual circuits?

Jessona: I will turn you over to Elyon who gave that address to answer for you.

Elyon: Greetings, my friend. We have taught you about [[the circuits]] so that you may [[grow]] in awareness of their [[reality]] and [[learn]] to [[access]] them and leverage them for the benefit of your fellows and the world in general. [[Circuit]], the term, is convenient, for it implies network. It also gives the conceptual [[vision]] of individuals distances apart who have [[connection]] independent of that distance. You understand [[electricity]] better than the many years that preceded [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electricity#History its discovery on this world]. You understand the [[flow]] of [[energy]], and these qualities of [[circuitry]] apply well to the [[spiritual circuit]]s that we tell you of. Yet, the term does begin to fall short of all that is contained in the [[reality]] of circuits, for there is another word that would expand the [[concept]], and that is [[circles]], arenas. It could have been said that you [[ascend]] ''seven psychic circuits'' for [[seven psychic circles]]. Where I am heading in this response is that in order to avail yourself of another [[circuit]], one that is higher than your current encircuitment, you must maturize your experience in the circuit, circle, you are in.

You have given three [[techniques]], and I approve; these are helpful in carrying you, bridging you, into the next [[circuit]]. Asking is of great importance, for, just like [[electricity]], without the ground the [[positive]] has nowhere to go. By asking you are setting up the want and the need, and it will be filled. By [[praying]] you are seeking the greatest source of [[wisdom]] that could ever be. In ministry you are standing as the wires of the circuit. There may be a plus and there may be a minus and a [[potential]] between, but your [[engagement]] in service to your fellows connects the two poles and allows the energy to [[flow]]. All through [[the universe]] we place beings in [[functions]]; not much is [[automated]] mechanically, and this is particularly true of the [[Ascension Career|ascent of the mortal creature to Paradise]].

I will return to a [[2001-02-03-Psychic Circles|prior lesson of circles]] and remind you that circles overlap and create new circles, sub-circles, and [[circuits]] do likewise, for you know of the [[Grand Universe]] circuits and [[the circuits]] of various levels of the [[architecture]] of the grand universe. It has been [[revealed]] to you that there are even more circuits that are established through [[personality]] contact with one another. Each one is a layer among the many layers of circuitry. I will draw upon your [[understanding]] of the [[cosmology]] of this universe presented in the [[Urantia Papers]] and bring to note that much of the universe is made of circles. Each one is clearly defined and marked as [[separate]] because of [[circuitry]]. That circuitry is a [[bonding]] force for each circle. As you ascend, [[circuits]] will be available to you that you had long hoped for when you were in a circle of [[attainment]] that was not advantageous to have [[access]] to that circuit. Therefore, do all you can at the level you are on and you will receive encircuitments at the next level in due time. Has this been supplementary?

Mark: It would be difficult to tease one out. They all [[impact]] each other.

Elyon: Indeed. As [[illustration]] let me point out that your [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulatory_system circulatory system] in your body feeds valuable [[nutrients]] to your [[neural circuits]]. Yet without the neural circuits the [[heart]] would not pump. They are interrelated, interconnected. That [[pattern]] repeats itself throughout [[the universe]].
