Changes

Mortal mind is a temporary intellect system loaned to human beings for use during a material lifetime, and as they use this mind, they are either accepting or rejecting the potential of eternal existence. Mind is about all you have of universe reality that is subject to your [[will]], and the [[soul]]--the morontia self--will faithfully portray the harvest of the temporal decisions which the mortal self is making. [[Human]] [[consciousness]] rests gently upon the electrochemical mechanism below and delicately touches the spirit-morontia energy system above. Of neither of these two systems is the human being ever completely conscious in his mortal life; therefore must he work in mind, of which he is conscious. And it is not so much what mind comprehends as what mind desires to comprehend that insures survival; it is not so much what mind is like as what mind is striving to be like that constitutes spirit identification. It is not so much that man is conscious of God as that man yearns for God that results in universe [[ascension]]. What you are today is not so important as what you are becoming day by day and in eternity.

Mind is the cosmic instrument on which the [[human]] [[will]] can play the discords of destruction, or upon which this same human will can bring forth the exquisite melodies of God identification and consequent [[eternal]] survival. The [[Adjuster]] bestowed upon man is, in the last analysis, impervious to [[evil]] and incapable of [[sin]], but mortal mind can actually be twisted, distorted, and rendered evil and ugly by the sinful machinations of a perverse and self-seeking human will. Likewise can this mind be made noble, beautiful, true, and good--actually great--in accordance with the spirit-illuminated will of a God-knowing human [[being]].

[[Evolutionary]] mind is only fully stable and dependable when manifesting itself upon the two extremes of cosmic intellectuality--the wholly [[mechanized]] and the entirely [[spiritualized]]. Between the intellectual extremes of pure mechanical control and true spirit nature there intervenes that enormous group of evolving and ascending minds whose stability and tranquillity are dependent upon personality choice and spirit identification.
