1. [http://dialogues.daynal.org/Sutras.html The First Sutra] - All spiritual teachings must be evaluated by their content, and not followed or rejected because of the celebrity of their supposed source. The time is long past on this planet when religion can be promulgated by asserting the authority of the teacher...it must be the teachings themselves and the effect they have on the students' lives, and not the claimed authority of their source that must be the final determinant in evaluating any religious teachings. - [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=1992-01-00-Will#Session_23 Will]

And who gets to determine which files are "questionable" or "dubious?"  Do we have three Ancients of Days on our editorial staff?
 +
 +
Why not trust each reader to use their Spirit of Truth and their Thought Adjuster to guide them in evaluating each transcript for themselves?  That's what we are here for, to make decisions, decisions and more decisions.  If certain individuals attempt to make those decisions for others, it robs them of the experience of making their own decisions about what is true and what is not and growing their soul in the process.

There are no infallible mortals on our list that can be trusted to make correct evaluations for anyone else.  Too many biased individuals poison the pot with their incorrect opinions and prejudices.  I do not find these dialogues representing the "eternal dialogue of humanity and divinity," but of a few individuals trying to indoctrinate others with their intolerant opinions of other TRs, groups and sometimes even of celestial beings.  "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."

Hello Roxanne-
 +
 +
You ask the cardinal question that must be addressed by those tasked with maintaining the record for historical purposes allowing each to discern for themselves if such decisions are in error..
 +
 +
If you do not find "these dialogues representing the "eternal dialogue of humanity and divinity," but of a few individuals trying to indoctrinate others with their intolerant opinions of other TRs, groups and sometimes even of celestial beings" perhaps you will cease to produce them. However, try as you may, there is not a thought in a any of our minds that is not composed by the admixture of humanity and divinity. Both are integral to the value we are giving  to the realization of destiny.
 +
 +
For my part, I see them all as attempts by humanity to represent divinity, and the record of human history shows such an endeavor is a mixed bag of treasures and tricks.
 +
 +
Gratefully,
 +

Rob
