Iruka: . ...the love of God surrounds you, the light of God enfolds you, wherever you are He is. Good afternoon, I am Iruka, I am your friend and teacher. I am very happy to be here today and I see we have a small group.

That will help us to get to know each other better and if you would like, you can ask many questions or the questions can be in great depth. I am not going to give the regular lesson because there is only a few here, but I would like to comment on your individual growth. I see great strides in all of you. I detect much love and a change in your attitudes. You are learning to greet each individual with love and acceptance and an appreciation for their individuality. You have indeed been changed through love; because you feel accepted and loved, you have turned this around to others. This is one of my old themes. This should not be new, but I want to encourage you that you are doing very well. Your light shines out to everyone who comes in contact with you. You are making a difference. You may be the only bright spot in somebody's day. You may be the only friendly face that they have seen. You may be the only sympathetic ear that they have seen. Know that you are different, know that you are special, you have something that the whole world craves. Something the whole planet is seeking even though they may not be able to name it. You have it, so do give it freely, and give it to everyone. Let your light shine as it says in the Bible and in the Urantia Book. You are making a difference. It is already happening and I am so proud of you, you are moving beyond your own personal pain. You are reaching out and you are making a difference. Now I will accept questions.

S2: Hi, this last week was a lot of fun. I had time to spend, a lot of time in silence. And it seems that I feel these warm washes over my body. It is like somebody is caressing me, and they happen very frequently, much more frequently than I have ever experienced before. I have never tried to pay attention to those kinds of feelings, or be sensitive to them. I am wondering if those are clues that I am growing closer to my thought adjuster or those are clues that my teacher is near by, or perhaps both.

Iruka: In general terms, there has been truth throughout the world. Everywhere. Certain societies and certain groups to get away from one kind of oppression has created their own kind. So some truth has been lost in some groups and other groups have kept it. That is why truth can be anywhere. It depends on the culture and who comes into power and masks the truth, or destroys it, or changes it. Each culture is a little bit different and each culture has been affected differently. This is a very large question, you are asking me why the whole world....and it is difficult to put on specific answers for each different culture. But sparks have remained here and there to keep this alive. That is why much that is in the Urantia Book is not really new. It has been forgotten in the whole consciousness of man or suppressed, or looked upon as being childish, that, that was something you believed as a child but you grow out of. And that is why some of this rings true in your heart, because it is in the consciousness of man, but it is buried so deep that unless your attention is called to it then it can bubble up, and you can say ' Oh yes, this makes sense, I know this is true'. So perhaps I did not specifically answer, but I hope I gave some reasons, and some understanding.

S2: Is there a disagreement, a misunderstanding, up in the Morontia world where you are. Are there beings, Morontia beings, that go astray? Is there a bit of the chaos that we are

experiencing here up in your world, the other side?

Iruka: To a certain degree, yes. Because each individual has free will and because each individual can respond to God in the way they think is best. There is, there is not common consensus, but it is not as divisive as religions here are. They are not as destructive as religions can be here. Does this help?

S1: Yes, that is fine. I was just wondering why I felt so out of place. So many Urantia activities, aside from this one, that left me cold, left me unmotivated. Like rather than it being`a place of real encouragement, although there was some, it was more a place of....not discouragement but just for the fact that I felt no spiritual power being generated from it.

Iruka: You are not alone. Even though you feel that you are the only one, you are not. Many people feel that way and they have to find that which feeds them. You are used to coming to this group and getting very specific help, guidance, answers, and to go back into a group where everyone reads the Urantia book and interprets it for themselves...it is a change. You cannot go backwards and you are recognizing this. That for you is to go backwards. You are focused on the forward and that is why I say find what feeds you and what helps you grow. That is what everyone has to do. So if you have friends you want to see, go, but don't expect more than they can give. See that they have limitations, but also appreciate them for what they are. They are friends of yours and they are a community who is also

striving. Does this help?

S1: Yes, that is good. That really does put some things in focus. The difficulty when I am active in churches, that I feel like I am being fed or feel at home, is that I can't mention the fact that I am involved in the Urantia Book, because they just don't know how to understand that, and so it is sort of a dilemma. I assume that maybe the dilemma will go away, the problem will go away if some day I am married, so there would be less people knowing that much about my life. You could be a part of a church without having people knowing more details than they ought to. That's all I needed to know.

Iruka: Much of history is like that yes. It is part of the whole cultural overtones. This culture saw an opportunity and a need to educate children and so began school. That it was more efficient to send children to a central place where they could be taught and then at the end of the education, all be at the same level. So this is how this society answered the problem of educating its young. Back when there were no cars, trains, buses, you could not send a child out to a distant building. If the culture was nomadic, that was impossible. And even if it wasn't, the culture kept the children at home. That was part of the belief system. So it is that this culture has more tools and there is more centralization. Is this what you are asking?

S2: You are saying that this point that I was raising is not due to necessarily to Melchizadek teachings but to tools that are available to our society. So that you are saying we can still find value in the current educational system and perhaps mix it with more parent and child teaching responsibilities or

expectations.

Iruka: There is a lot more to it than that. When schools, public schools were created, most people had the same belief system. Most people agreed on what was important, today that is not true and that is why there is so much disparity between the two. It has created problems while it was trying to solve problems. Are you trying to compare schools of old in the home with..are you trying to figure out the best thing for your children. Is that what the focus of this questions is?

Iruka: And it may be in time that you will come to a conclusion, but you are not sure now. And you can just let it sit and a thought or a perception can come later, or you can read something that will make sense of this. That doesn't have to be answered now.
