Changes

There has been a [[renewed]] restlessness among the troops for the next command to charge. It is indeed an [[honor]] to see the troops so willing to assemble and awaiting to be given the [[command]] to move forward. This picture of the assembled troops is warming to the [[heart]] of any [[leader]], yet I am struck with the [[humor]] in such an image from my perspective. Where you may see yourselves as [[poised]], [[trained]], and [[prepared]] for any upcoming [[challenge]], I see you as in the trenches, foxholes, and employing every means at your disposal, engaged thoroughly in this excursion. It is a natural human tendency to think in terms of large [[events]], momentous occurrences, to rally and challenge the forces in order for you to feel as though you have been enlisted and are [[engaged]] in the [[process]] when in fact the training and the [[exercises]] you have been undergoing for some number of years now have also been a part of this [[struggle]] for you. Therefore I see you more as gaining [[experience]] in [[battle]] rather than as waiting for the signal to charge. True, that you may always consider loftier [[goals]], higher [[ideals]] of accomplishment, and these are what drive you forward to take the next step and knock on the next door. Meanwhile do not shortchange yourself that you are not involved in all that is transpiring around you. While you are [[preparing]] for your next great mission you are [[becoming]] soiled with the experience of your maneuvers so as to provide you with a broader framework and a more familiar [[comfort zone]] in the arena of engagement with [[spirit]].

You can give a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infantry foot soldier] a handbook and [[expect]] that, even though he may [[become]] entirely familiar with the material, the actual [[battlefield]] conditions vary greatly, and the operation will be in need of restructuring as conditions materialize. This re-appropriation is what your base of [[experience]] is providing you the framework to do. You are gaining the [[experience]] only available to you outside of [[the text]] and the manual and in the field. It is this field experience which makes for good [[leaders]], that they may draw on the circumstances and become [[flexible]] and adaptive to accommodate the conditions present in the field at the time. A manual might make suggestions or hint at [[possibilities]], but in the field one must make these [[judgments]], assess the situation, and make accommodations to their mission plan so as to accommodate this new [[reality]]. Therefore is there no standard and set patterns to be [[practiced]] and adhered to under all conditions. You each one are beginning to fully grasp this in your lives, that what might work for one will not work for another. What might work at one time will not work at another time. What is acceptable to some will be unacceptable to others. What is right here might clearly be wrong there. Therefore must you become seasoned at making these determinations based upon your [[past]] experiences, your successes, and your apparent [[failures]], ever the more valuable as they point out more clearly to you what aspects to work on. These sum totals of [[events]] in your lives represent your accumulated [[wisdom]] of a game plan to [[participate]] in this spirit arena.

On the field of spirit the rules are in constant flux. One must be ready to meet their [[partners]] in this field where they are, to [[engage]] with them at any given level yet never lose sight of the ultimate [[mission]] before us all, to elevate the [[interactions]] on this field to their highest possible [[spiritual]] element. Many a circumstance, a name, a face, a situation will [[change]], but [[the mission]] before us to raise each other up to the highest spiritual plane remains the same. The game [[plan]] varies widely according to the field we find ourselves on, the [[weather]] conditions, the modes, the stance of each of the individuals involved. Perhaps you might even begin to see yourselves as engaged, not awaiting in the bunkers the [[command]] to be given you. Each day that passes is a new arena, a new field to walk upon and assess the climate, the conditions, the possibilities, the situation so that you may the better [[achieve]] the end goal of spiritualizing the outcome and the workings of what goes on on the field. In this way as spiritual [[warriors]] you never lose even if you see yourselves as having fallen short of reaching some ultimate [[desire]] or goal. Nevertheless, if you have raised even by some small increment the amount of [[spirit]] [[infused]] onto the field, then you have succeeded. It is by small degrees of success that the [[battle]] is won. Always if you remain [[focused]] on the ultimate goal of infusing spirit into the equation and onto the field then you have succeeded in your mission.

Thank you for showing interest in my [[words]] and the words and messages of [[the teachers]]. This is my [[purpose]], our purpose, to you. It is greatly rewarding that you are not only [[receptive]] to these messages but are infused with the spirit [[energy]] intended to be contained in these messages. Thank you for hearing my words and know that they will sink into the [[hearts]] of those who are ready for them. We will have much more [[discussion]] on many more things as time goes on.

Kirk: There’s been a new [[energy]] source [[discovered]] on [[this planet]] by an inventor and given to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Greer Steven Greer] and his organization to be tested and [[disseminated]] on this planet. Is this the energy source The [[Urantia Book]] alludes to as having not yet been discovered? {after a long pause} Is this too [[terrestrial]] a question?

Elyon (Jonathan): This is Elyon returning. It is important that [[we teachers]] also adhere to the [[mandates]] of the [[Urantia Papers]] [[revelation]] and not over revealing what mankind will soon [[discover]]. I would support your [[investigation]], for you are perceiving properly the [[emergence]] of new [[technology]]. This source of energy is still beyond the conceptual framework of the scientists. What is uncovering for you now in the investigation of technology as a [[manifestation]] of the energy applied, and this will lead to enlarging the human scientific [[understanding]], which will reveal the energy and its source, which is creating the [[phenomenon]] that is detectable.

Thank you.

Jonathan: I [[imagine]] this battlefield like a paintball game where the paint balls are [[spirit]]. When you are hit you get spirit on you. However, that falls apart since in a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paintball paintball game] when you are hit you are out. Perhaps it’s more like the [[game]] of tag where when you are [[touched]] you are “it”, [[spirit]] is with you.
