Preamble:  You once said: "In the [[spaces]] between [[moments]] of [[time]] exists [[spirit]] and spirit [[connections]]."  A little later: “As to the spiritual [[pressure]] that is being applied to [[Urantia]], it is correct to [[visualize]] a blanket [[action]] with the [[spirit]] [[pressure]] being drawn more tightly and pressed deeply into the [[planet]] itself.”

Preamble:  You once said: "In the [[space]]s between [[moments]] of [[time]] exists [[spirit]] and spirit [[connections]]."  A little later: “As to the spiritual [[pressure]] that is being applied to [[Urantia]], it is correct to [[visualize]] a blanket [[action]] with the [[spirit]] [[pressure]] being drawn more tightly and pressed deeply into the [[planet]] itself.”
 
        
 
        
 
Question #9:  I really enjoy the [[poetic]] [[statement]] you provide us about where [[spirit]] exists in [[time]], but I do not [[comprehend]] how spirit finds [[space]] between [[moments]] when time to us [[flows]] in one [[continuum]].  Is it the case of the [[eternal]] [[now]] being present in the [[flow]] of [[time]]?

Monjoronson:  It will be [[difficult]] to address this question for [[spirit]] does not exist in [[time]], and that is why the comment was made that [[spirit]] [[functions]] between [[moments]] of [[time]].  You do [[perceive]] time as a [[Motion|movement]], a train of [[successive]] moments.  [[Spiritual]] [[pressure]] is an attempt to bring spiritual [[reality]] into the time frame of human living.

If I may I will use your [[physics]] and its [[understanding]] of [[pressure]], [[volume]], and [[temperature]].  If you look at volume as [[time]], [[spiritual]] [[pressure]] will [[change]] the [[orientation]] of the [[mind]] in [[time]]. If we increase the [[pressure]], we can shorten the [[time]], that is if the [[temperature]] is [[constant]].  But we are looking to increase the [[temperature]] on this world, to fire it up and [[stimulate]] its [[growth]]. If you are going to be fixed in your [[perception]] of [[time]], our [[pressure]] will get stronger to increase the temperature.  If you can expand your [[comprehension]] of [[time]], you increase your volume of [[awareness]].  We do not need to add so much to our pressure, for you are doing the [[work]], and the temperature heats up.

You have [[referenced]] the [[eternal]] [[now]].  Since [[spirit]] exists between the [[moments]] of [[time]], if your [[perception]] of [[time]] is of all time, not [[linear]]ly oriented from [[past]] to [[future]], but all at once, then you increase the size of your [[moment]] from [[instantaneous]] to [[eternal]].  Then the beginning and the end become one and the each and every becomes all.  There you will [[discern]] more directly the [[function]] of [[spirit]].
