(The Q&A session after Tomas and Anatolia's lesson on Trust and Faith)

TOMAS: Thank you, Anatolia, for your chocolate. Can we have some jelly beans now from you (the group)?

TOMAS: Thank you, Anatolia, for your chocolate. Can we have some jelly beans now from you (the group)?

Elena: I have a question about what you mentioned about the Perfector of Wisdom. Can you give me just a little 'jelly bean' about the Perfector of Wisdom? I don't understand, exactly, what entity that would come from or who that is.

Elena: I have a [[question]] about what you mentioned about the ''Perfector of Wisdom''. Can you give me just a little 'jelly bean' about the Perfector of Wisdom? I don't [[understand]], exactly, what entity that would come from or who that is.

TOMAS: The Perfector of Wisdom is a Universe Reality. It is personified for your comprehension, as if you were incapable of understanding any live thing without a form. I am reminded of the Living Libraries, which are not filled with books, as you would know 'knowledge' today, but rather an atmosphere without walls that you may enter into and absorb what is available on what you need to know, much as you now go to the library or the internet in order to find information. The 'living libraries' of the cosmos are realities for you to partake of.

I am reminded of the [[Living Libraries]], which are not filled with [[books]], as you would know 'knowledge' today, but rather an atmosphere without walls that you may enter into and [[absorb]] what is available on what you need to know, much as you now go to the [[library]] or the [[internet]] in order to find [[information]]. The 'living libraries' of the [[cosmos]] are realities for you to partake of.

Similar, but not the same, is the Perfector of Wisdom. Like the Sanctity of Trust, it is a quality of reality that has no parallel in your mortal framework, but you know when you have entered into its influence. You recognize the reality, the value, that it reveals.

Elena: Well it's easier to understand the Trust that you talk about than the Perfector of Wisdom, for me. When you were talking about Trust I have a very clear understanding of that - at least during the time that you were talking about it. What you said (about the Perfector of Wisdom) helps, but still I'm not clear about it. I can almost touch . .. I can feel the Trust in the Father, but I'm not so clear about the Wisdom.

TOMAS: The Perfector of Wisdom is a ministering spirit - a helper which guides you into a comprehension of the worthiness of that which you seek, and which stretches you above and beyond your current comprehension of what 'wisdom' is. It enables your own wisdom to take on new dimensions and, like Sanctity of Trust, which you can feel around you as if it were a shady place on a hot day, the Perfector of Wisdom is similar to "a cosmic stretch" into a greater comprehension. It leaves you feeling enlarged and invigorated, as if every cell in your body had been innervated. You feel empowered, perhaps, because of the newfound level of wisdom which has been revealed to you through your own efforts - through your own reach into divinity, and this process is assisted by the Perfector of Wisdom.

From your mortal vantage point you may think of it as a study hall that provides the atmosphere that will enable you to focus your mind on a point of behavior or attitude which allows you the "Sanctity of Trust" to see it through to the fullest extent possible, without diversion, without distraction, without the need to change the subject or run away. It provides time for you to make this leap in consciousness.

(Cricket, Paula's cat, meows noticeably in the background)

And good afternoon to you, as well, my four-footed friend. (group chuckles) I have affection for your animals. When I was mortal I had many animals myself. However, my selection was very limited by the nature of the restraints of our habitation. It was not my experience ever to see a horse, Paula. I have never been on a farm. I have been what you might consider a city boy, "a city slicker", but truly I was more like "Eloise, the apartment dweller". Even so, on occasion we were afforded stewardship over one of the many animals of the realm which we had adopted as appropriate for our living conditions and, since they were so domesticated, your pets put me in mind of those days when I was able to enjoy the company of the creatures of the realm.

Matthew: May I ask a question at this point?

Matthew: May I ask a question at this point?

TOMAS: Yes, Matthew.

TOMAS: Yes, Matthew.

 

Matthew: What did the mortals of this world look like? Did they look like, for example, humans like us or with some real differences?

Matthew: What did the [[mortals]] of [[this world]] look like? Did they look like, for example, humans like us or with some real differences?

TOMAS: My world?

TOMAS: My world?

TOMAS: They were somewhat shorter. They were slight of build. They were racially what you might call "petite" and rather without fur or hair but rather a 'down' that covered the bodies. When my sons were born, they were almost furry, but as they developed, they shed their hair, leaving particles of it in their bed, much like cats or dogs who shed will leave traces of their fallen hair on their bedding.

Our lives were lived within a similar time frame as yours but for us to live to be 75 or 80 was a very long time. However, the planet we lived on was so dense, the global time span was much smaller. The down-pull of the density of the neighboring tribes held us back from (- the word is not in your vocabulary that I am looking for -) what I have seen on other developing worlds where your vitality actually soars. Thus we were - how shall I say, landlocked or grounded from the advantages of advancement that you will find on worlds of Light and Life that includes the entire globe. That is a different aspect of Light and Life. Thus, you see, my experience had its limitations. But to answer your question Matthew, we were of a slight build compared to Urantians.

Matthew: Thank you. I had wondered about that before.

Matthew: Thank you. I had wondered about that before.

TOMAS: Does this contribute to your spiritual discernment somehow?

TOMAS: Does this contribute to your [[spiritual]] [[discernment]] somehow?

Matthew: I can find a reason. I'm curious because I've heard some descriptions of other creatures on other worlds looking like reptiles and other such descriptions. I wasn't expecting something grotesque. I was just curious, if it was almost a direct - in appearance - comparison to what we look like, that's all.

I wasn't [[expecting]] something [[grotesque]]. I was just curious, if it was almost a direct - in [[appearance]] - comparison to what we look like, that's all.

TOMAS: We were similar. I was standard among my race. We all had blue eyes, however, which was a variation from the variety you see with your people. However, this was, very probably, a result of our isolating ourselves early on. It is not as if we had interbred, as there were enough of us to forestall any genetic deficits that inbreeding will bring. But there was such limited opportunity for the racial amalgamation that occurs on a normal planet. We retarded ourselves, in some ways, by this choice. But these deficiencies were made up in the course of time, as all deficiencies are in the path to perfection.

Elena: Tomas, you mentioned before the difference of habitat for your race of people. I don't know if "race" is the correct word to use or not but it'll do. But on your world, was there some kind of mistake or a kind of a change of the plans, comparable to our world, that promoted and continued that separation between you and the other people? Because I remember you talking about that before.

Because I remember you talking about that before.

TOMAS: It stemmed from the conditions on our world-the physical conditions of the planet. The course we took was to protect ourselves from the elements, and thus we became more fragile. We lost the ruggedness that our neighboring relatives withstood, sustained, and grew into, and so, after a time, it became necessary for us to continue to separate ourselves, even culturally, for while we were able to develop our sensitivities and refine our life style, we were also made very vulnerable, you would say 'weak.' Thus, to your mind's eye you might think of us as birds in a cage and surrounded by cats on the prowl. However we did not feel imprisoned and we truly did sing for we had great joy in our peculiar society.

Elena: Yours was a planet of Light and Life, too, wasn't it, Tomas?

Elena: Yours was a planet of [[Light and Life]], too, wasn't it, Tomas?

TOMAS: It was not.

TOMAS: It was not.

Elena: Oh.

Elena: Oh.

TOMAS: Our portion was very advanced but the planet, in the main, was a brutal place to live. But again, much of that was because of the physical aspects, the extremes of heat and cold that sent us scurrying indoors, whereas the others ran out into it to fend, and they became strong physically while we became strong inwardly.

Matthew: Can the analogy be made between Asian people here and the Europeans? Because Asians are generally more light of build and tend toward more intellectual and spiritual pursuits.

Matthew: Can the [[analogy]] be made between Asian people here and the Europeans? Because Asians are generally more light of build and tend toward more [[intellectual]] and [[spiritual]] pursuits.

TOMAS: From your perspective that might be a way to understand our difference. But we were not nearly as many as the Orientals here. Our race, unlike the mongoloids of Urantia, were a small race of people. Perhaps the size of Australia, in comparison of the rest of the globe.

Paula: Where was this planet of yours in the scheme of things?

Paula: Where was [[this planet]] of yours in the scheme of things?

TOMAS: This planet was - and is - in a neighboring system in the local universe of Nebadon, and so we are simply neighbors.

Esmarelda: Are we in the same galaxy?

Esmarelda: Are we in the same [[galaxy]]?

TOMAS: The galaxy itself, of course, embraces us all. But I'm not in the galaxy that revolves around your sun. We have our own sun ( s-u-n ) and it is rambunctious. Indeed there were two suns and three moons on my world and the weather conditions were altogether different from the weather conditions here. That is what set us apart from our fellows, and to my mind what enabled us to advance, but only because we adapted the way we adapted.

The others are, in fact, intact and evolving nicely on the rest of the planet from which I hailed, and they have evolved, as I have, now presenting a decent face to the Father in acknowledgment of their beings. Whereas in the days of my mortality, the gods outside of our compound were based on what you would know as 'ghost cults' perhaps. They worshipped the elements and this, of course, is why they would run right out into the elements and do battle with them. Eventually they realized that the wind and the rain were not their enemies nor gods but merely climate factors, and they began to develop new ways of invigorating themselves physically and entertaining themselves psychically. Thus they have come along in their evolution and what is left of what was once my world is what you might consider ancient civilization in ruins, and yet maintained as a museum for those to study.

Elena: No more of your race is there anymore?

Elena: No more of your race is there anymore?

TOMAS: They have all vanished. We evolved and eventually the need to procreate (long pause) - again there's no word here - (further pause) removed itself from us. You might say we were 'freaks' or a 'fluke,' but that was the experience that I brought with me to my eternal career. And there are times, like when encountering your cats, when remembrance of that way of life wash over me, and my memories, my reflections, are warm and joy-filled. Which is what Light and Life is, after all.

As I enjoy this respite with you from the embattlements of life on your world - even in your lives - the tranquility we share is one we know of as 'peace' resulting from the Prince of Peace. It is the quality of enjoyment that comes from an appreciation of our Higher Nature and the accomplishment of sedating our animal nature.

Elena: Well, I don't know if for anybody else, but for me it's kind of like a continuation of what you were talking about at the start, too. As you learn more about someone else, you trust them more. And I'd have to say I know we've grown to know each other more during the last year, but as we grow to know more about you, it makes it easier to trust you more, too. It's very helpful, I think, and I really want to thank you again for sharing some of what your past experience is. Within the Father we are somehow a piece that fits in the humongous mosaic that we can't even comprehend, but in Him. But as one mosaic piece relates to another - as you know more about that other 'piece of the pie' or whatever - it certainly is very helpful. So thank you.

TOMAS: And thank you for trusting the process of getting to know the facets of divinity which have been generously spread out before you in personalities such as mine and others that engage with you in a refinement of sentiment and an appreciation of the experience of others. It is a testimony to your growth as a conscious citizen of the Universe that your needs can abate sufficiently that you can look around and take an interest in the lives of others. This is not possible for those who are in fear of their lives or in distrust of life itself. It is those, of course, that we have as our assignment, you and I, and yet, in order for us to be effective, it will be to our mutual benefit that we have learned to love each other and trust each other sufficiently that we can see how we are alike - how we compare as ascending sons - how we share in the family of God as fraternal comrades. I have dredged up memories that have been long dormant today and I am glad you found them meaningful to your experience.

TOMAS: There is an element of your cat, Elena, I would like to mention.

TOMAS: There is an element of your cat, Elena, I would like to mention.

Elena: Oh, Thank You!! (group laughter) I didn't want to ask about my pet. In the past I have asked you about Herby (the beta fish) but I'm all ears. [Editor's Note: Her cat, Tanya, was keeping the household awake with incessant nocturnal swatting of the electrical wires throughout the house.]

[Editor's Note: Her cat, Tanya, was keeping the household [[awake]] with incessant nocturnal swatting of the electrical wires throughout the house.]

 

TOMAS: You are on the right track about the shedding. It is a part of the peculiar habit Tanya has instituted. Energy runs through those wires, and energy is able to, like a magnet, draw her and stimulate her follicles. If she were brushed, it would have a similar effect. You in this climate understand the electric charge of that shock that comes innately from scuffing your feet on the carpet then touching the door handle. She is "electrocuting her hairs off". It is a process similar to how snakes will molt their skin. It isn't enough to be harmful. It may not even be that effective, but it pleases her to try.

Elena: Then I should brush her!

Elena: Then I should brush her! TOMAS: If she will hold still for it, you might eliminate some of her "itch to seek relief" in electrical wiring. This is just something else for you to put on your "To Do" list.

TOMAS: If she will hold still for it, you might eliminate some of her "itch to seek relief" in electrical wiring. This is just something else for you to put on your "To Do" list.

Elena: I appreciate the suggestions, though. Anything that could kind of help us get some sleep right now would be helpful. So, thank you, Tomas.

Elena: I appreciate the suggestions, though. Anything that could kind of help us get some [[sleep]] right now would be helpful. So, thank you, Tomas.

TOMAS: There is also an advantage to you, for in the Stillness that is required for you to effectively minister to your feline, you are brought into relationship with her and there are many gifts that can be gained from the association with the animal realm. They have so many things to offer that humans so often overlook. And the truth is, they share them with you, since they too have five (5) of the adjutant mind spirits and thus their nature is so much like your nature. Give yourself up to the luxury of engaging in intimacy with your cat and enjoy the grooming moment.

===Closing===

TOMAS: The outside world impinges. And it is just as well, for we must close our session and be about our Father's business. Take what we have enjoyed here today in this Family Gathering, the love we shared, the peace we knew, the trust we developed, the wisdom we imparted, and take it into the world with you. Give evidence to all you see of that which is eternal which has been resurrected within you! The way, the truth, and the light. We will see you next week. Farewell.
