I have always maintained that there exists one letter in the Declaration of Trust that is problematic, namely the letter ‘a’ in the clause cited below to “foster a religion”. The letter ‘a’ signifies one among many e.g. one of many competing religions currently operating in this world, some as evolutionary repercussions of ‘revelation’. However, the document becomes explicit in the section entitled “[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=2016-08-21-Solving_the_Disunity_of_the_Urantia_Revelation#THE_CURRENT_STATUS_OF_THE_REVELATOR.E2.80.98S_MANDATES Current Status of the Revelator’s Mandates]” where it is observed that as "there are none ordained”, a failing grade of F is given.

Nevermind the overall tone of the document reading like a new age version of the infamous sermon ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinners_in_the_Hands_of_an_Angry_God Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God]'' by the colonial theologian Jonathan Edwards, or perhaps more accurately, a contemporary Sales Director of the media monster owned by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rupert_Murdoch Rupert Murdoch] whose lust for profit has wreaked ruin upon some of the best book publishing in the field of religion.

Perfect communication does not entail use of word symbols but operates as a “direct flash” of intelligence “straight to the intellect” of any recipient. Words are twice removed from their source, but they are nevertheless helpful to those who cannot ‘hear' in silence. Of course perfect communication occurs where the mind is “consciously quite unconcerned” with its phenomena, focused instead upon the priority of communion where "there exists no need for communication” as we typically understand it.

The purpose is to surmount the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=The_great_challenge great challenge] of our time by fostering a culture of communion such that personal communication with God may be characterized less with the methods of ''indirection'' than direct flashes of intelligence to the intellects of his human partners!

Increasingly does the mind grow through spirit identification so that this base expands as it rises into each new level. The fruits of the spirit emerge from this process, and all of these are reflections of a balanced mind.

Wisdom grows in this environment as a balanced mind is immune to the extremes which plague the immature levels of mind.
