Sussi: This question is for Mantoube. The answer was a good answer. I have a better understanding that we're protected from daily woes by our [[knowledge]] of our cosmic citizenship, and seeing the larger picture allays some anxieties about what we do when we die that most people don't have any clue of. The ascension plan - how lucky we are moving forward. I get that part. But, here's the direct question. I believe that part of what Stephanie was asking, (and I shouldn't assume anything) so, this is my question, then, (it dovetails on that) - quote, unquote, if we get nuked, are we "special" enough to get protected in some way? It's doubtful that that's true, but I believe that that might be an extension of her question.

MANTOUBE (T/R Jim): As you reach out in loving service and ministry your level of protection grows, for you are out performing loving service and you deserve all the help you can get. There are so few, relatively few, [[human]]s who are devoted to loving service and so, as we find you, we must nurture you and help you to enhance your service in fortuitous dimensions. The business of [[Urantia]] is the growth of souls. It is a [[finite]] time to grow your [[soul]], and the sooner you discover that this soul growth is fully enraptured in service, service, then your soul will grow more rapidly. As you give freely of yourself, your talents, your love, your mercy, your compassion, you grow in strength, and your assistance and support from the celestial side grows ever more powerful. And so, while you are fully protected by your Universal Father, in a universal sense, conflicts will come, and so what? Still, as you step forward as teachers and ministers, as you take these steps of faith, each step is rewarded and your level of protection grows. Grow your souls. Make them beautiful. Make them loving. Make them defenseless. Be magnetized. People will see that they can talk to you without you getting disagreeable. They can talk to you and you will listen to them, without continuing to find opportunities to throw things back and state your own. Service is listening. Service is listening and hearing. Service is hearing fluently and responding with the best possible response. As you are enraptured and [[spirit]] strengthens you to service, you will grow more [[Beauty|beautiful]] to those who will receive, who will appreciate your defenselessness. They will appreciate your open heart, your open mind, your loving and caring disposition, and they will often think, "I should be that way, too. Why am I so hassled and bound, and frustrated, and confused by all these myriad of problems that beset me every day?" You put these daily woes of Urantia behind you and step forward boldly in the knowledge of your Sonship, the knowledge of your uniqueness, knowledge of your duty, knowledge of your deep and abiding aspiration for Supreme [[Goodness]]. You will grow all of these good qualities and be a great teacher. Grow your soul in all things, in all moments of the day. Hearing a powerful ministry in a stadium full of people can grow your soul. A quiet contemplative discussion with one person in a lonely corner can make a profound difference in your life, as well, or in the life of the person you are ministering to in humility and grace. Only one thing, only one thing that you might say to this person with your open heart might be something that that person remembers deeply throughout their life, and will respond to you by becoming a better person, with a purer soul. So, perhaps you should learn some one-liners. Truly the words that you speak very often can be powerful. And as you learn to attune yourselves to the spirits, those words will come to you more readily, and you will not be encumbered by having to defend yourself or be more right than the other person, having better perspectives than the other person. These things are of no matter - where you are on the path. It is the path that matters, and you cannot be anywhere except where you are. Where you are; there you are. I know each of you are quite cognizant of many of these things and you have perspectives which will lead you truly. So work together, in strength, and support one another and grow your souls.

Sussi: That was a fabulous answer. Regardless, [[spiritual]] orientation, which is the main goal of this life, is what is commensurate with our level of protection and help. That's the same message we've been getting for two thousand years.

Stephanie: Maybe Malvantra will continue the answer.

MALVANTRA (T/R Stephen): We grow weary. We retire with an outpouring of peace.
