Changes

In times of trial and challenge we oftentimes neglect to remember that our true source of strength and the reserve of our courageous abilities lies deep within the confines of our relationship with our [[Thought Adjuster]], which is a direct circuitous connection to the [[First Source and Center]], a gift of preservation from the Unfathomable One, deathless, pure, clean, vast - the ocean of never-ending bliss. Drink from the nectar. Absorb this ambrosia by osmosis through your conscious veil as it vibrates and is stimulated by the vibratory emanations consisting with the overcontrol of eternal [[pattern]], displayed and promulgated by the trinitized, unified, activated, eternal, exquisite outpouring of increasing, unlimited love - a vibration that shakes the entire [[cosmos]] and vibrates with feelings of health, sustainability, preservation and joy. Through self-love you will come to understand that your precious relationship is duplicated when you extend your feelings of sisterhood and brotherhood to your compatriots. Your treasure in life rests upon the relationships that you maintain. You take nothing with you but your [[mind]] transcripts, your [[personality]], and the memories of the [[beauty]] way and the life and the children of [[light]]. So devote your [[time]] and energy and pursue the path of compassion, of camaraderie, of solidarity, of enhancing and modifying the circuitous route that connects you all. Your peace we send to you is overshadowed only by the exuberance that's expressed by the [[teachers]] present in the expression of your desires.

ELISHA (T/R Jim): Fill this room. Fill this room. Fill this room with loving grace, For the spirits join us in this place. Surround us with your loving light. Share your grace with us tonight. Give us joy and peaceful release. Bring us home. Give us peace.

ELISHA (T/R Jim): Fill this room. Fill this room. Fill this room with loving [[grace]], For the [[spirit]]s join us in this place. Surround us with your loving [[light]]. Share your grace with us tonight. Give us joy and peaceful release. Bring us home. Give us peace.

Past all the turmoil and problems we face We find the peace and loving face Which you gave us as Jesus As Jesus came into this place Who loved us all in full embrace And showed us mercy and compassion And joy and brotherhood, An example for the ages, for the centuries, And living strongly, ever strongly Today.

Open your minds. Open your spirits. Open your feelings. Openness. Openness. I am Elisha.

Open your minds. Open your spirits. Open your feelings. Openness. Openness. I am Elisha.

MANTOUBE (T/R Jim): And I am Mantoube. I am a [[Melchizedek]] recently assigned to your sphere. I would speak today on defenselessness. This reality permeates this room from your studies of the text of the Michael Order, truly a course in miracles which you can practice to full joy every day. The text, a program of mind, body, [[spirit]] conditioning, will grow ever stronger. And so you are familiar and somewhat knowledgeable of defenselessness. And you know that it is not practiced lying down. The lesson is appropriate, I believe. For the lad who transmits to you has lessons he will learn and they will grow more intensely in recent weeks as we would give forth clarification and understanding to this concept that he struggles with.

This [[reality]] permeates this room from your studies of the [[text]] of the Michael Order, truly ''a course in miracles'' which you can practice to full joy every day. The text, a program of [[mind]], body, [[spirit]] conditioning, will grow ever stronger. And so you are familiar and somewhat knowledgeable of defenselessness.

Defenselessness is a [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_105 reality] that requires exertion and application. It is not passivity. It is not simply praying for peace. It is not stepping back from your mortal responsibilities to expect the heavens to open before you and accomplish your quest for you. With free will and a bountiful chest of treasures and gifts you embark upon this mortal life, seeking first to survive, seeking later to move beyond survival to wealth of many kinds. And finally, in your [[evolution]]ary quest, your [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_40 ascension] to Perfection, you find that the concept becomes more real and more brilliant. Over the hundreds of generations you have defended yourself from theft, from destructive forces, that could end your life and destroy the values which you cherish. Over these many generations it becomes a necessary mandate to defend oneself, one's family, one's estate.

And so, it is difficult over evolutionary time to bring this concept to true light. Defending your bodies against harm is one [[things|thing]]. We know that the physical selves which we employ here are temporary, functional and quite adapted to your environment. But defending your ideas, your inspirations, beliefs, seems quite unnecessary. Would you defend the [[truth]]s that you think you know, when those truths, of necessity, must be ever changing, ever evolving, ever expanding, and ever growing? And so, what truths do you know that you would defend? And the length of time of trying to prove yourself simplistically correct could be better spent in additional learning. There are no truths that you know that should be defended. However, you may stand up for truths that you believe without defending them. Stand for what you believe. Stand for the [[faith]] that you have. Stand for your ideals of [[Truth]], [[Beauty]] and [[goodness]], and do this pro-actively. Do this concertedly, with determination, with joy in service, that you may apply the truths that you know at this stage of your ascension to the greater glory of the Universal Father. You stand strongly, in favor of true [[value]]s, while being defenseless in making them stand above all else. For you know that your perspectives are ever changing, growing, enlarging, and that makes your truth somewhat different. Instead of railing about what you strongly believe and what you would force others to believe, be open and sharing of your inspiration, your ideas, your insight, but do not stand upon them as universal truths that will not grow, or it will certainly stagnate and develop conflicts, acrimonious relationships. Respect the others' path. Respect the pure hearts, the growing hearts of your fellows and work with them to incorporate cooperative, caring and sharing relationships, as you discover higher levels of truth, together. Do not be adamant in favor of your concepts of Beauty, or [[Goodness]], for truly these [[things]] are also in the eye of the mortal beholder and these concepts are ever changing, as each of you appreciates Truth, Beauty and goodness as you see it, and as you understand it. How many relationships are destroyed and put to extreme stress because individuals see fit to turn on those who disagree with them and take a stand against that person. Cliques are formed. Pressure groups are formed. Each of you know that selfishness, and self-centeredness belies the truth that you know. Move beyond tolerance. Move to a higher level of [[faith]]. There is a Master plan for you, for your world, for your universe, and for the universe of universes. When you have the faith in the Father's plan, then, what, indeed, could be threatening to you? For you know that this plan will carry you forward to ever-higher levels of Truth and Beauty and Goodness as your vessel can move forward with these [[things]]. And so, be patient, for the things you do not know are simply opportunities to move forward and learn more. Do so, not in defense of your level of knowledge. Be proud of your knowledge. Be proud that you are a student, loving and unique, a child of God. Defense? What? Open your hearts to new expressions, to new ideas, and they will come to you as living waters and you will learn more and more. You will grow in faith and you will come to increasingly know that defensiveness builds fortresses and fortresses create conflicts which are rife upon your world.

I have worked in other [[universe]]s. I am here, now, to apply what I believe I have learned in my experience on other worlds. I assure you that all is well. All is proceeding according to God's plan. You have suffered from rebellion, but you have gained so much from being involved in that rebellion. For all returned to the glory of God, and the benefits have reverberated across the entire [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_32 local universe], and even beyond into the [[text]]s that are studied in this universe and others. The example of this [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_53 Lucifer Rebellion] has been one of the greatest teaching aids in all the universe. This teaching aid comes to you, complements of your own [[Jesus]]. The example of Urantia is studied, analyzed, dissected and celebrated through all the worlds. And you are so directly involved that you see, in sharp relief, the many levels of conflict that have permeated your world - such an opportunity to learn about all of these areas of conflict, in order to rise above all conflict.

This, my friends, is a primarily ascension quest - to rise above all conflict, and to realize that you create conflict each day, in many ways. Strongly from your defenselessness, then, you will greatly celebrate your abilities - knowledge which will lead you beyond and above all conflict. Look forward to your citizenship of the cosmos, to [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_46 Jerusem].

I have spoken quite enough. There may be others who wish to speak, or, the group may engage in discussion. For we have barely touched upon the subject of defenselessness. I only introduce it to offer these sharings and in order that you may put it foremost in your minds in coming weeks, as [[individual]]s, as governments - indeed, all of Urantia seeks to rise up and embrace this concept. In these dangerous conflict, it is critical to your progress on Urantia. Take a stand for defenselessness– strong, and assertive– for defenselessness. And you will still be a loving child of God who has no reason to defend. [[Power]]s may fall. They have often done so. They may fall again. But as true [[value]]s are permeated within your world, so too are the blessings of the [[cosmos]]. Spiritual teachers of this new, and glorious age will pour forth to Urantia, golden emissaries of love and truth, with compassion for each and every one. Be defenseless as a child, for you are a beloved child of the Father, like no other. He will take care of you. Thank you.
