Session

Lesson

Thought Adjuster: “Why are spiritual influences always somewhat foreign to intellectual consciousness? Why don't they express themselves more directly?

The main reason—as you have long suspected—is the Father's mandate to respect individual free will. Human beings are at the lowest level of universal existence and are thus considered "fragile mechanisms." Very little can be revealed about the spiritual world for them to be able to comprehend and integrate it into their experience. In most cases, a powerful voice telling a human being that it is the voice of God would effectively destroy their will and plunge them into fearful servitude, which would be a powerful obstacle to their spiritual growth.

Don't you see that it is much better to let humans be responsible for their own decisions and thus become the masters of their destiny? Isn't it better to create free, powerful, independent, reliable, and wise beings who have learned through the experience of discovering the Father's ways for themselves? Isn't it a better learning method to question things and know through experience what is the best path than to simply accept what others tell you, suppressing your reason and discernment?

The scheme of mortal evolution has been established by the Father and many of His assistants as the best method—the perfect method—to produce beings similar in divinity and attributes to God Himself. Other methods are not capable of producing the same quality of beings that will one day be employed in the administration and maintenance of the outer space universes and the new creatures that may arise in them. This method offers mortals total freedom of choice and, while placing a great amount of responsibility in their hands, offers the surest path to eternal life.

When a human being decides to find the Father and become like Him all the spiritual influences acting on this personality become a reality in their experience. When human will has been wholly dedicated to the divine will, the spiritual influences that had initially gone unnoticed in this human's life begin to act with greater intensity. It is then that truths are revealed, and understandings are expanded, uncovering an ever more complete image of reality. Thus, it is the individual who opens "the gates of heaven" for its blessings to fall upon him or her.

The spiritual presences acting in your life are neither hidden nor ineffective. They simply wait for you to grant them the necessary power to transform you into what the Father desires you to be. These influences—your Thought Adjuster, the Spirit of Truth, and the Holy Spirit—never lose patience or tire of waiting for you. It is up to you to decide today to explore your spiritual side and find the path that will lead you to the perfection of your being—the highest expression of your personality.”
