Attainment 2025

​

Presenting a series of 10 meetings with those who wanted more help in making direct contact with their indwelling God fragments, their Thought Adjusters. Three seasoned persons share with two beginners HOW to begin and progress the practice of Attainment with God.

 

Meeting #1: After the Jesus MeetUp Week 23 Chosen By God: Thought Adjusters

 

Rien: This Jesus MeetUp was wonderful and I learned so much. I do have more questions. Can I talk to you both privately for just a bit before we go?

 

Ham: Of course. Yes. Come sit and let us discuss your questions.

 

Abraham: We welcome your questions.

 

Rien: I am passionately seeking to Attain HIM in any way I can. How do I attempt to Know God within my own heart and mind? How is this done? I am trying, but not sure I am doing it right.

 

Abraham: We are very happy to speak with you about this most important topic for your personal spiritual growth. It is easy to achieve if you are diligent and steadfast in your application of the following ideas:

 

Point 1:  The stillness requires just that – stillness. It is most important to still the body in order to gain a quietness for the mind to be allowed to begin its quieting process. Any position is acceptable of course, it matters not. Stillness and relaxation of the limbs, eyes, face, hands, and feet. This will help facilitate stillness in the brain – that is, the electrical impulses coming from the extremities are lessened and therefore the electrical activity within the brain itself, becomes less.

 

Point 2:  Then the surroundings should be quiet. Stimulation from the auditory sense is most distracting and should be eliminated if possible.

 

Rien: So, you advise me to not use any music or other guided meditations with human direction, as in audios that are so-called ‘guiding’ me?

 

Abraham: Yes, indeed. When pursuing your personal God fragment there should be no other involved with this. It is an endeavor that requires only your communication with your own Father. No human should interfere with how HE will guide you.

 

Rien: I have a hard time concentrating on this. It seems my mind wants to jump around with other thoughts nearly constantly. This is difficult for me and I sometimes feel like giving up. But I WON’T! I am determined.

 

Abraham: Very well, Rien. We understand completely. Let us keep going...

Point 3:  Mental stillness. This particular aspect of this practice is the most difficult to achieve. You are making a sincere attempt and God knows this. You will make great progress and strides in this direction. Mental stillness is essential for Thought Adjuster communication to be received. There is a metaphor of still water reflecting the sun. When the water (the mind) is turbulent, this reflection is splintered/broken into myriad refractions. In the ideal stillness, for clarity sake, the mind absolutely must be still. Deep relaxation, mental stillness, will, without fail, result in increased Thought Adjuster communication if you are patient and willing to commit this time.

Rien: To be honest, I am struggling with this very first part. I just cannot get my mind to be like those still waters. This is quite frustrating to me.

​

Abraham: This evening it is my heartfelt desire to urge you to think a little about rest, relaxation. It was taught long ago that one day should be kept holy for God. Jesus taught that one day should be devoted to rest and reversion. Many times did the Master retreat to the hills to be in uninterrupted communion with His Father. I would say this communion with Father would also be refreshing to a tired soul. Many times the mind also requires some peace. Not every minute needs to be devoted to learning or improvement of the self.

​

You would be amazed at the benefits you receive from a short rest. You may witness a sharpening of the mind; you may also find you have a higher tolerance level. Sometimes it’s the little things that can wear on your tolerance level. Rest or diversion from routine can greatly improve your attitude. Perhaps a creative moment may remove your mind from the minor aggravations of life to reveal a lighter side – perhaps a feeling, an opening to possibly receive Adjuster guidance. 

 

Rien: Abraham, I want to hear the voice of the indwelling Spirit. The method that I have most often used to clear my mind is a prayer of gratitude and asking for my mind to be exchanged for the mind of Christ. And, in the process of clearing the mind, I ask that I might hear the inner voice of the Father Fragment. Sometimes this is effective, but there are other times when I have not been able to get my fearful thought processes out of the way. Could you help me in those things, please? And also, perhaps give me further technique that would assist me in that meditative practice.

 

Abraham: Rein, my question – are you seeking to hear the communications of the indwelling Adjuster? [Rein: Yes, that's my purpose in meditation.] [Abraham: Out loud?]

 

Rien: Though I understand that the indwelling Spirit speaks through an inner voice – not the outer hearing mechanism that we normally communicate with.

​

Abraham: Rien, I perceive your method of your stillness-time is adequate. I know not if you will at that very moment desired, receive Adjuster communication. I do know however, that you communicate much with your Adjuster. Many normal daily activities include your communication with the Father Fragment. I would not limit you by saying an audible contact with your Adjuster is not a possibility; rather, I would say your communication with your Father Fragment appears very casual, very normal. Father would not frighten His children; therefore, communications are best when felt quite naturally. In your stillness-time, your willingness and dedication is good. I would add, that peacefulness and a feeling of love does make for quite a sufficient meditation.

 

Rien: Abraham, you seem to be saying this is a new way of hearing – this communication with my Thought Adjuster. I was under the impression it was something we came to during the meditation time. You seem to be saying that we have more communication with Father than I was aware of – like in daily happenings and events; that it is a natural kind of thing that goes on between ourselves and the Thought Adjuster. I guess I was not aware of that. Am I perceiving correctly – that we do have more communication and understanding with our indwelling than I had perceived?

 

Abraham: Indeed. Yes. So much miracle-seeking is often sought. Something ‘out of the ordinary’ is expected. I say, anything is possible, yes, but to 'be open' is to allow Father to work. Father's work is not meant to be in 'miracles' but in ordinary everyday living. Father asks us to believe without seeing. That may be your hardest task yet, Rien. Most of our Thought Adjuster communications may seem so natural you might almost believe it is just you. If I may suggest to you, before we close for tonight, this week I would ask you to make time for a little rest, a little diversion from your daily routine.

 

Rien: Yes, Abraham. Thank you, and I will.

 

Abraham: Always remember, dear, He is always with you, always close to you. You need not worry for He wants you to know Him, and He already knows you, through and through. Do you understand how loved you are? [Rien: Yes, and I am learning more and more.]

 

Abraham: Then we shall say good-by until next week.

​

Added note: To have a stubborn or willful part of our personalities is not a bad thing at all. What this will afford us is a persistent and diligent ‘will’ in order to make His will our will. This is an element of us stemming from the fact that we are people of a decimal planet who have traversed our nativity life in the midst of a spiritual rebellion, which is finally over. All is now being corrected for our very unhappy and troubled world. When we allow Him to work within us with this stubborn desire for Him all things come together. What matters most is our willful desire for Him. He morphs this within, for us, to become strong and capable servers for what He wants. We will succeed!

Meeting #2: After the meeting Week 25 Honor Man/Father’s Day

​

Abraham: Well, here we are again, Rien. We are so happy to continue our teachings on the Master’s original gospel message, this renewing revelation that you, Rien, are so passionately pursuing. This is Ellen. She comes to join our discussion as a regular human, just like you, who has diligently pursued her own attainment of her God-fragment within. Would you agree, Ellen?

 

Ellen: Yes, absolutely. Thank you, Ham, Abraham and Rien, for inviting me into your very good discussions of our indwelling Thought Adjusters – our personal fragments of God. I am thrilled and hopeful in my attempt to share with you a bit of what I have experienced. Rien, after Abraham and Ham’s previous instructions how did your spiritual pursuit of your Thought Adjuster go this week?

 

Rien: It is so wonderful to meet you, Ellen. And thank you for asking. Actually, my week went rather well – better than most, I would say. I focused on what Abraham said last week regarding relaxing of the entire body and then attempting to focus on God while I tried to have that thoughtlessness that we discussed. I did ‘see’ and ‘feel’ something very different, even if just for a few moments.

 

Ellen: I suspect this will grow for you, as it has for me. We are no different from one another, none more superior than another. We are simply asking God to work with us as we each currently have the capacity. And because we each are different, our experiences will be different. But we are ALL on the same path toward Him. Will you share with us? What did you see, Rein?

 

Rien: Well, I’m not completely sure. I ‘saw’ some dark gray movements in my mind’s eye which normally are not there. I was a bit surprised, but did not let it stop me from staying in my still, quiet and focused state. I think this may sound strange to say, but I actually could ‘feel’ the movement within my own mind. Do you know what I am describing?

 

Ellen: Oh, yes. I saw and felt this also in the beginning. And, this has grown and grown for me over the years. It continues still for me and has definitely changed in many ways – directions, movement and a special kind of rhythmic expression, if you will. I suspect it will change for you also as time goes by. Did you experience any changes in your thinking over the rest of the week?

 

Rien: I did. I noticed that the things that were disconcerting previously were just not so concerning to me last week. I felt almost as if my thinking was changed. My thoughts and feelings were less strained, less disruptive but with a new inner enthusiasm. I can only describe this as – I felt a ‘reorganization’ of my thinking and then my feelings followed with a distinct and more settled mind. Does this make sense?

 

Ellen: Indeed, it does. Have you read this passage, 156:2.6 from our book? “The theme of Jesus' instructions during the sojourn at Sidon was spiritual progression. He told them they could not stand still; they must go forward in righteousness or retrogress into evil and sin. He admonished them to "forget those things which are in the past while you push forward to embrace the greater realities of the kingdom." He besought them not to be content with their childhood in the gospel [children of God] but to strive for the attainment of the full stature of divine sonship [adults of God] in the communion of the spirit and in the fellowship of believers.”

 

My new friend, Rien, it sounds like you are on your way towards our Master’s spiritual desires—this communion of the spirit He has described. You may also expect some new activity within your soul. As you continue your pursuit of God within He adds to your soul’s growth. For me, I began to experience this. I believe what I experience is a bit of my soul ‘speaking’ to me. Here’s what we know.

 

133:6.7 “The human soul, when matured, ennobled, and spiritualized, approaches the heavenly status in that it comes near to being an entity intervening between the material and the spiritual, the material self and the divine spirit. The evolving soul of a human being is difficult of description and more difficult of demonstration because it is not discoverable by the methods of either material investigation or spiritual proving. Material science cannot demonstrate the existence of a soul, neither can pure spirit-testing. Notwithstanding the failure of both material science and spiritual standards to discover the existence of the human soul, every morally conscious mortal knows of the existence of his soul as a real and actual personal experience.” ~ Jesus

 

As we read what Jesus taught, we embrace this spiritual truth that we can actually ‘experience’ our soul as a separate entity within us.

​+++++

"There are two major directions of growth in the Supreme. One is inward toward the Father, the other is from the Father, outward. These two growth-directions are equally necessary for His realization." ~ unknown as of 7.7.2025. Five days later, in the 900 pages of Mansion World Teachings, as we were researching we 'stumbled upon' this quote. This teaching is from HAM (!!!) and this was no 'stumble'. This is an example of how our Celestial Helpers, Midwayers and Seraphim work. Be led beloveds. They are with us ALL in great power!

[This quote 'appeared'. We did not write it. We left it here just as it was given. Soon-coming will be a Jesus MeetUp "The Supreme"]

+++++

Rien: How will this affect my life? How will this change me?

 

Ham: Father's love comes through, 'person to person,' and is bestowed upon those who draw near Him as spiritual water. The Father's love acts to bestow acceptance, to bestow love, to bestow guidance (unerring guidance), forgiveness, tolerance, understanding, wisdom, and truth. When this spiritual water flows from one person to another, it is as though God Himself is accepting this person for who he or she is. And it is this acceptance and forgiveness which all humankind craves.

​

Abraham: Spiritual water is real. It exists in the form of truth, of beauty, of goodness. It replenishes my soul. It rains down upon my soul, the soil of my heart, and awakens new growth. You see, the soul grows almost as an organic living reality-entity. This growth must be nurtured in time as all living things require time for growth. A tree begins its life as a seed, it is not a tree at all. It has no characteristics of its later maturity…and yes, from this small beginning, tiny beginning, magnificent beauteous and splendid results might occur. Many times, I have wondered about this, and yet, the ultimate secret lies, of course, with God: the ultimate truth of life and reality. On Edentia, I toiled in the gardens and thought on this subject deeply.

​

Ham: For you to be personal ministers of the word of God it is necessary for your being to exhibit this love of our Father – to bestow acceptance, forgiveness, love, and tolerance on your fellows, as you would hope for forgiveness, love, tolerance, and acceptance from our Father. Yes. This is a daring feat. It is not a cowardly act; it is a courageous act

 

This act of courage will result in the response of your fellows to you in ways which you will find surprising; and it is by love that this is accomplished. It is not preaching; it is not earthly 'thou-shalt-not'-type ministry, no! It is simply love! simply love and its repercussion in that person.

 

May we each commit to loving others with our Father’s kind of love. Let us stop our discussions here and ponder these things in our hearts over this next week.

 

Rien: Thank you all so much, each of you, for taking this time with me. I am riveted. Oh, and I have a friend I would like to bring next week? May I? I think he would very much enjoy you, Abraham, Ham and Ellen. Yes?

 

Ham: Yes. Most definitely. We will rejoin next week and meet your friend.

 

Abraham: I am inclined to suggest that we close our time tonight with a few thoughts and then a shared prayer. [Pause]

 

Yes, I tell you boldly—this absolute personality of pure love and life-energy, fragments himself and he dwells within you. His love for you is complete and pure; He truly needs nothing from you in return. But I tell you, the Father desires to know you, and for you to know him. He desires for you to give Him back your love; and I say, the more you know our Father the easier it is to love Him. I ask you each of us tonight to take a short moment that we may thank our Father, together: [a few moments of silence.]

 

Our Father, you know us through and through, and we know that you love us no matter what. We need not hide from you. We stand in awe of your magnificence. We know of the great tasks you have performed. But we are here tonight to bid you thanks for your contribution to our individual personalities. We are small, we are young beings just recognizing your awesome love and strength. We who recognize your Indwelling Self are overflowing in your radiance and light. We extend to you our deepest gratitude and we send you our unending love. Amen.

​

Ham: Until we meet again. Have a week full of His enduring peace!

Meeting #3: After the meeting Week 26 Nature of God

 

Rien: I have looked so forward to this time. Please meet Alan. We met at a JMU and traded numbers. When I told Alan we were meeting he asked if he might join also. Alan is also pursuing His Father within. Thank you for spending some time with us.

 

Abraham: Welcome Alan. We are happy to be with you tonight. May I begin by reminding all of us of our Father’s magnificent love. He surrounds us right now and is unfolding to us personal revelations He wants us to know. He is everywhere. Wherever we are, He is.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ham: Yes. To continue in our teachings, the stillness is an important concept for everyone to understand. Let us repeat and expand on the mind being like water which, when turbulent, reflects and refracts light in many directions. When still, however, it reflects the light of God to the capacity of the person. In prayer, forget not to wait for a while for an answer or an attitude change. Father’s ear is always open. He hears our prayer and understands our needs. Forget not this great and tremendous reality.

 

This that you seek, Alan and Rien, is concerning that point or focus of enlightenment referred to in ancient teachings. There is much truth to be gained in studying some parts of these ancient religious systems, especially concerning the practice of meditation.

 

Alan: Thank you for allowing me to these meetings. I did have a question. I was curious—when is the best time to pursue this? Can I do this while I am at work or elsewhere?

 

Ham: Abraham and I have requested that you retire alone and seek the stillness. I say again to you, this refers to first, stillness in body. It is very difficult without much practice to attain heightened spiritual awareness during physical activity. As you already know the importance is stillness of mind. This step is considerably more difficult because the mind ever tends toward activity. Yes, these stillness teachings are found from many sources, generally. I wish to clarify this practice for you. 

 

The goal of stillness-seeking in our teaching is different in that we request not the seeking of 'blissful ease' experience, but rather the supreme exercise of true faith – the true faith of the child reaching out with courage toward the Father, and the reciprocal downward reaching of the Father towards His child. This experience of stillness is the most sublime experience in life; and much guidance, inspiration, foresight and spiritual insight, may thus be obtained as the reward of the sincere faith-seeking child.

 

Rein: I have stopped watching TV or spending large amounts of time online. I bet I spent a couple of hours each evening in attempting this communing with God.

 

Ham: Rien, I do understand. You have much Zeal! However, I do not enjoin you to covet this practice for long periods of time. However, frequent repetition of this stillness (prayerful attitude) is very helpful and enlightening. I would suggest that we should attempt to seek the stillness every day, at needed intervals, for a few minutes. This can be the most fruitful experience of your 24-hour day.

 

It is often the practice of most people to be so busy with their day-to-day thinking activity so as to simply forget the higher realms of thinking, reacting, feeling, experiencing. This is possible by the simple practice of:

1. Aloneness

2. Stillness of the body

3. Stillness of the mind.

 

I wish to elaborate on the third – stillness of the mind: This is the most difficult aspect of this practice and sometimes requires a considerable amount of practice in order to have the ability to sustain mental stillness for any time length. This should however, be followed through with diligence; reward will follow.

 

Rien: YES! This is the hardest, hardest part for me.

 

Alan: Me too! It seems I need more than a few minutes to make ANY or very much progress.

 

Ham: I say to you with surety – this simple practice will surely help to increase mental peace and serenity (the emotional happiness and feeling of well-being, as well as the physical health and well-being), for this process of allowing the contact of your personal God fragment, the indwelling Thought Adjuster, through the superconsciousness is, in itself, a very healing process.

 

The great spiritual power inherent in the presence of the Thought Adjuster is never fully realized in mortal consciousness. Yet, you can expand this consciousness of God-awareness by diligent practice, by consciously centering the thought process on Him, and also on Jesus, Christ Michael.

 

Alan: It is so interesting to me, as a grown man, I try to be so childlike with Him that I invite Him to play Tag with me – in my mind. As a child I used to play Tag with my neighborhood friends. In a very real way – I sense He is playing Tag back with me. So fun!

 

Rien: Did you ‘get caught’? [laughter]

 

Alan: Well, in fact, kinda – sort of! In a spiritual sense, I think I DID get caught! I felt something, experienced something very hard to put into words. It felt like...[pause] like... a ‘spiritual hug’ when He did, in fact, catch me.

 

Rien: Ham, is this Thought Adjuster really God Himself, as we would know Him in heaven once we die?

 

Ham: The full consciousness of such an extremely powerful spiritual being, our divine Father, cannot be realized during the physical life. So powerful is He that a full, even a momentary full, consciousness (that is His being filling your consciousness completely, which is not to say complete consciousness of Him, but complete consciousness that is possible of Him) would result in translation, fusion, as we also teach in other gatherings and study time – this ‘fusion’ is also the Deity Embrace.

 

Rien: This is my goal. I want this so much!

 

Alan: I do too. And I want to be ‘caught’ again by Him. Whatever that spiritual feeling was, when I felt the ‘hug’, I want that more and more.

 

Abraham: Trust! Simply trust your indwelling Father to do with you all that you desire and are capable of receiving. Shall we end on this note, Ham?

 

Ham: Yes. This is enough for now. Shall we visit again next week?

 

All: Yes.

Meeting #4: After the meeting Week 27 The Soul

 

Abraham: Come sit. This is wonderful for us all to be together once again, discussing a favorite topic. May we get right to it. I know Ham has some more instructions to share with us all.

 

Ham: Yes, I do. His supreme desire is to reach you more fully, day by day; to impart His guidance – some of His awareness and His teaching, directly to your mind. What a change of life which results from the sincere effort to really listen and to receive Him – His guidance, His instruction, and His presence. What a supreme experience! What a supreme delight! And what a supreme advancement in your own personal spiritual development this is.

 

Rien: So this practice will result in a faster spiritual growth for us? How? How is this done?

 

Ham: Conscious awareness of God directly results in the immediate transcription of this consciousness to the soul. This soul consciousness is immediately upstepped and made more perfect and divine; and thus, more like Him. These soul transcriptions are a permanent part of the ascendant self which is never lost – a permanent reality. This permanent reality is made by your conscious decision to make it so. Allow me to go even further.

 

Love and truth are co-equal, dependent. These two immense realities serve in harmony, together. Truth, as you have perceived it, is not the fullness of its reality. Truth, you see, may perhaps be mentally degraded to the level of fact perception. You say: “This fact exists; therefore, it is true.” I say, no, this is not truth! This is not reality perception; this is mental logic-level perception.

 

Truth is 'spiritual perception' also; it entails/encompasses soul grasping that is morontia-level understanding of reality. Truth is indescribably, incredibly and wonderfully, more than material-level fact correlation. Truth, when perceived in reality, enlarges the soul; it allows spiritual progression to occur and advancement to real-ize within a person’s personality-reality. This truth is amazing. This enlightenment is beyond mere mental cognition but reaches into the depth of soul perception.

 

Love is the perception of God. Love is a singular reality, a singular truth. Love is experience, yes, but it is more – it is enfoldingment expansion, the opening of the soul to perception of reality and truth. Without love there is nothing, there is no path. The man Jesus told of a better way – the path of truth and love. This must be spoken of [to others], must be perceived, so that such a profound experience can be understood on your material level. It is not only the beginning of life, it is also the end. It is the goal, for it is He.

 

Ellen: Ham, if I may. I brought a passage from our book to help explain these ‘transcriptions’ of God within us that you spoke of.

 

111:2.2 The material mind of mortal man is the cosmic loom that carries the morontia fabrics on which the indwelling Thought Adjuster threads the spirit patterns of a universe character of enduring values and divine meanings — a surviving soul of ultimate destiny and unending career, a potential finaliter.

111:2.3 The human personality is identified with mind and spirit held together in functional relationship by life in a material body. This functioning relationship of such mind and spirit does not result in some combination of the qualities or attributes of mind and spirit but rather in an entirely new, original, and unique universe value of potentially eternal endurance, the SOUL.

 

Rien: A loom! Yes, I see and I love this. Thank you Ellen. So, Ham—by ‘conscious decision’ you are referring to free will choice? Yes?

​

​

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ham: Yes. A supreme responsibility lies with each person to, in partnership with God, become conscious increasingly of His awareness, His being-presence. And this, in turn, creates a new awareness (a being-presence) in the morontial soul, which is your true self. This truth is ever-present from then on. The soul, at that beginning moment, is a never-ending true being.

 

Rien: How will I be aware of this growth with Him?

 

Ham: I have spoken in the past about the unconscious growth of the soul, so now I take you one step further into the conscious growth of the same soul by your own effort – your diligence. Although these efforts (and the fruits thereof) may be very satisfying and even thrilling, do not be disheartened or discouraged if at first you are not comfortable with this.

 

Rien: Yes. I sometimes feel insecure about my progress – or failure, as I see it at times.

 

Ham: All true desire of the child is rewarded by the Father when that desire is to be like Him, to be more aware of Him, and to express His reality within your uniqueness. This expression of God is most often not a conscious effort but is the simple revelation of grace that the ever-growing and ever-expanding soul reveals to the world – even without the full consciousness of such growing grace by the person.

 

You are growing in grace, in truth, in light, in beauty, in goodness – very slowly, yes; and at times, at a faster pace. Do not become discouraged, for this growth proceeds unabated whether or not you are aware of it. Spiritual growth is transforming, and this transformation is never sudden. The seed does not become the tree overnight. All growth – physical, morontial, and spiritual growth – takes time for completion.

 

Rien: I do find this hard to do. And I will admit that I have given up quickly at times with great frustration? Alan, we spoke about this. You have felt this also?

 

Alan: Yes. I get so frustrated when I think on things I do not really want to think on, things of my past, maybe. But it seems I am slow to overcoming this. I wish I was better at controlling my mind’s activity.

 

Ham: For you, as this growth is accomplished and certain levels are attained, consciousness – even sudden consciousness of this growth – may happen. And this 'increased awareness' thus augments this growth and therefore allows further growth and development to occur, unconsciously.

 

Yes, I mean this goal to be one of vigorous soul growth, and a transformation among your fellows, your family. The goal in many teachings is for one to retreat from society and have blissful solitude experience. This I wish to distinguish from. Is this clear?

 

Rien: Yes, I hear you. But, in relationship to meditation, or communion I should say, regarding being quiet and alone, is it good to try to limit our thoughts to the idea or name of God? like a mantra?

 

Ham: No. A mantra seems helpful at times in stilling the mind, but continuous concentration upon the mantra is also a distraction.

 

Rien: In regard to stilling the mind – is it appropriate to keep our minds thoughtless, or shall we allow spiritual thoughts to come into our minds and dwell on those?

 

Ham: Yes, this is difficult. At the point of thoughtlessness, complete thoughtlessness, this allows the indwelling Spirit a moment to communicate to you. So, thoughtlessness is desired. Focus, however, is different. Focus the mind on the highest thought, God, and allow thoughtlessness to receive Him. Does this help? [The 3 F-s, explained a bit later]

 

Rien: It does help. When we put the thought of God in our mind, then should it be a thought in the intellectual sense? or, an attempt to feel His presence?

 

Ham: An attempt to focus on His presence.

 

Abraham: Ellen, you have been quiet. Might you expound on these things?

 

Ellen: Yes, and thank you Abraham. I can tell you both, Rien and Alan, that this calming of the mind will get better and better as you push forward in your diligent practice. I too struggle like you do. However, over time I have experienced that this stilling of the mind does make steady progress. And then, these moments that Ham speaks of begin to occur a bit more frequently. With God—I am not above begging! [laughter] And when I do passionately request His help with this – help does come – over time. And, as this occurs more spiritual experiences come as well. Colors, ‘feelings’ with those grey movements I told you about, chills and so much more. The experiences are Many and Varied. I encourage you both to simply stay this path and Keep Going. I cannot wait to hear what He does within you.

 

Abraham: This may be enough for tonight.

 

Alan: May we meet again?

 

Ham: Yes. Until we meet again next week. Let us allow Ellen to speak more about her pursuits and experiences. Ellen, yes?

 

Ellen: Yes. I look forward to this.

 

Abraham: Until next week then.

Meeting #5: After the meeting Week 28 Who Am I?

 

Abraham: Welcome, again! This is proving to be a very successful little group we have here. We are happy to be with you tonight. My heart is full to the brim with enthusiasm for what Ellen will share with us.

 

Ellen: Thank you, Abraham and Ham. I have prepared my own testimony, along with other reports of Father’s work within our hearts, minds and lives. These are some things you may expect, Rien and Alan, as you move forward. However, first, a word regarding some ‘things to consider’ for better results. 1. During your week try to reduce spiritual poisons of the lower animal mind. Anger, jealously, bitterness or hate will greatly diminish your good efforts and results for communion with God. Resolve these first. 2. Take a look at your life currently and try to create more free time for yourselves with less distractions. Resist too much time with technology to allow the simplicity of life to promote calmness and peace within, alongside your continued desire for His presence. 3. Remind yourselves that whatever He does within you is for YOU alone. Resist the need for others to provide you recognition as this may lead to self-aggrandizement and an almost certain result of being left on your own. Our Father will do His work in His other children as He sees fit. After all, they are His child and not ours. Your spiritual experiences are YOUR own. Allow your fellows to have theirs, alone, as well. Share based upon your personal encouragements or instructions in humble love with others with an attitude of just that, your personal ‘sharing’.

 

With that said, I would share with you an experience I had long ago, when I was about 13 years old. I had just heard for the first time about Jesus being the Son of God and His deep love for me, personally. Although the message I heard included the false doctrine regarding atonement, Jesus’ blood needing to be shed in order to forgive me of my ‘sins’, His love got through to me. My heart fully opened to Jesus at this time and many tears of gratitude flowed. Consequentially, the next morning I found a KJV Bible given to me previously and opened it, quite haphazardly, as a child might do, to the very first page I looked at in the entire book where Jesus states, “Lo, I will be with you always, even to the end of the age.” In that moment the room began to spin – so much so that I had to lay down. This ‘encircuitment’ lasted for a good while and it returned a number of times later.

 

36:5.15 Living mind, prior to the appearance of capacity to learn from experience, is the ministry domain of the Master Physical Controllers. Creature mind, before acquiring the ability to recognize divinity and worship Deity, is the exclusive domain of the adjutant spirits. With the appearance of the spiritual response of the creature intellect, such created minds at once become superminded, being instantly encircuited in the spirit cycles of the local universe Mother Spirit.

​

Allow me to shed light upon what we should remember in our pursuits of God in His spiritual realm.

​

46:2.2 The conscious and persistent regard for iniquity in the heart of man gradually destroys the prayer connection of the human soul with the spirit circuits of communication between man and his Maker. Naturally God hears the petition of his child, but when the human heart deliberately and persistently harbors [respects] the concepts of iniquity [vanishing personality control], there gradually ensues the loss of personal communion between the earth child and his heavenly Father.

  ~ Jesus

 

Rien: I do NOT want that! Sometimes I am afraid I am I am not even aware of my wrong thinking.

 

Alan: But all we can do is try...and try again. Right?!

 

Ellen: Correct. And here is the encouragement for both of you.

 

131:2.8 “I will trust in the Lord with all my heart; I will lean not upon my own understanding. In all my ways I will acknowledge him, and he shall direct my paths. The Lord is faithful; he keeps his word with those who serve him; the just shall live by his faith. If you do not well [inner spiritual life], it is because sin [abject spiritual poverty] lies at the door; men reap the evil [deficiency of wisdom] they plow and the sin they sow. Fret not yourself because of evildoers. If you regard iniquity [vanishing personality control due to pride of self] in your heart, the Lord will not hear you; if you sin [habitual disobedience] against God, you also wrong your own soul. God will bring every man’s work to judgment with every secret thing, whether it be good or evil. As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.”

​

146:2.7 “When you have become wholly dedicated to the doing of the will of the Father in heaven, the answer to all your petitions will be forthcoming because your prayers will be in full accordance with the Father’s will [what is good and true], and the Father’s will is ever manifest throughout his vast universe. What the true son desires and the infinite Father wills IS.” ~ Jesus

 

Rien: Wait! You mean if I just want something and my Father agrees then I get to have it?

 

Ellen: I will repeat that last line for you. “What the true son [daughter] desires and the infinite Father wills IS.” Jesus Himself said this. We can absolutely depend upon what our Master has said is totally true. No ‘if-s’ ‘and-s’ or ‘but-s’. This is true.

 

An aggressively submissive attitude with child-like faith in the pursuit of your personal spiritual experiences with your indwelling Father will provide you spiritual growth. Ever remember that you may expect a number of things. I, along with some friends, have discussed these things at length. And this list continues to grow as we share in a loving group.

 

Everything begins with your sincere desire for Him – to not only find God within you, but to KNOW God within you. God is a Person [1:3.5]. At first the stillness practice is attempted. Abraham and Ham have taught you what to do. Stay this faith-trust course expectantly with an open heart and mind as you wait and allow for Him to reveal Himself, as He sees your capacity.

 

101:1.3 The divine spirit makes contact with mortal man, not by feelings or emotions, but in the realm of the highest and most spiritualized thinking. It is your thoughts, not your feelings, that lead you Godward. The divine nature may be perceived only with the eyes of the mind. But the mind that really discerns God, hears the indwelling Adjuster, is the pure mind [true, beautiful and good]. "Without holiness no man may see the Lord." All such inner and spiritual communion is termed spiritual insight. Such religious experiences result from the impress [stamp] made upon the mind of man by the combined operations of the Adjuster and the Spirit of Truth as they function amid and upon the ideas, ideals, insights, and spirit striving-s of the evolving sons of God.

 

Alan: Impress? Stamp made in our minds? What is that?

 

Ellen: Great question, Alan. We believe this impacts the soul. We will discuss this very point a bit later, but I will continue on? (Alan: Yes, please.)

 

Some have reported very small happenings seen in their mind’s eye, easy to miss if one is not focused. Always a bit surprised at first, they ever so slightly ‘see’ movement. This is very difficult of describing as spiritual things seem unspeakable, indescribable, and yet it should not be ignored, dismissed or demeaned. It is sublime. We searched for some pictures-of-similarity to describe these beginning small ‘happenings’. Envision for yourselves, as you see these pictures-of-similarity that all that is viewed is in Constant Movement. With this movement testimony it has been stated that the person can almost ‘feel’ it’s activity. Here is a further passage to clarify regarding adjutant mind-spirits and the Holy Spirit.

​

36:5.16 (403.4) The adjutant mind-spirits are in no manner directly related to the diverse and highly spiritual function of the spirit of the personal presence of the Divine Minister, the Holy Spirit of the inhabited worlds; but they are functionally antecedent to [come before], and preparatory for, the appearance of this very spirit in evolutionary man. The adjutants afford the Universe Mother Spirit a varied contact with, and control over, the material living creatures of a local universe, but they do not repercuss in the Supreme Being when acting on pre-personality levels.

This is reported to have slower pulsating movement and is never static. In fact, all reports are that Nothing is ever still – static.

 

17:5.7 In the mortal experience the human intellect resides in the rhythmic pulsations of the adjutant mind-spirits and effects its decisions within the arena produced by encircuitment within this ministry.

 

102:2.5 Even the discoveries of science are not truly real in the consciousness of human experience until they are unraveled and correlated, until their relevant facts actually become meaning through encircuitment in the thought streams of mind. Mortal man views even his physical environment from the mind level, from the perspective of its psychological [mind] registry. It is not, therefore, strange that man should place a highly unified interpretation upon the universe and then seek to identify this energy unity of his science with the spirit unity of his religious experience [true religion is friendship with God]. Mind is unity; mortal consciousness lives on the mind level and perceives the universal realities through the eyes of the mind endowment.

 

eyes : noun

a specialized light-sensitive sensory structure and is the image-forming organ of sight

 

0:6.8 Mind is a phenomenon connoting the presence-activity of living ministry in addition to varied energy systems; and this is true on all levels of intelligence. In personality, mind ever intervenes between spirit [non-physical] and matter [physical]; therefore is the universe illuminated by three kinds of light: material [physical] light, intellectual insight, and spirit luminosity.

0:6.9 Light — spirit luminosity — is a word symbol, a figure of speech, which connotes the personality manifestation characteristic of spirit beings of diverse orders. This luminous emanation is in no respect related either to intellectual insight or to physical-light manifestations.

 

Rien: I read this in the Forward, but I didn’t really think about it. Now I am beginning to understand the importance of this recognition. It makes sense because God is light and life and He dwells in my mind.

 

Ellen: Exactly right! His living light of love dwells in your mind and heart and He longs to be better KNOWN by you. Always remember: God is a Person who can be known and loved, and love you back in return. This is a RECIPROCAL relationship. May I continue? (Rien, yes, absolutely.)

 

1:3.3 It is not necessary to see God with the eyes of the flesh in order to discern him by the faith-vision [spirit] of the spiritualized mind.

 

vision : noun

the special sense by which the qualities of an object (such as color, luminosity, shape, and size) constituting its appearance are perceived through a process in which light rays in the eye are transformed by the retina into signals that are transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve

 

Many have had great difficulty in experiencing this spiritual sight of spirit-luminosity and have so ensued upon stating that ‘we all have a connection to God’. And, although this is true in one sense, they diminish and dismiss the fact of each person’s potential to attain direct spiritual contact with God quite possibly stemming from a reticence to admit to themselves that they have been less than diligent in their personal pursuit of God. A meager attempt will avail little presenting their need to explain away what they have not personally and diligently pursued or experienced. Yet, when they publicly present this as a fact and this goes directly against our Revelator’s and Jesus’ teachings. This is ERROR and possibly evil. Continuing this teaching may become what? Sin [continued and willful opposition to our Father’s way]? Laziness will be remedied on the mansion worlds, certainly. But, those wholehearted and wise individuals who know better will flourish and succeed in spiritual growth. One needs not wait to personally experience direct contact with God in their first life on their nativity world.

 

Alan: I have seen this. It has been confusing for me. I suspect, now, as you explain this, it has been very confusing for others also. Why?

 

Ellen: The explanation for this challenge is found here:

65:7.4 Again, on an average evolutionary world the seven adjutant spirits are far better synchronized with the advancing stages of animal development than they were on Urantia. With but a single exception, the adjutants experienced the greatest difficulty in contacting with the evolving minds of Urantia organisms than they had ever had in all their functioning throughout the universe of Nebadon. On this world [Urantia] there developed many forms of border phenomena — confusional combinations of the mechanical-nonteachable and the nonmechanical-teachable types of organismal response.

 

And here we have a companion passage with similar enlightenment:

110:7.6 But with the vast majority of Urantians the Adjuster must patiently await the arrival of death deliverance; must await the liberation of the emerging soul from the well-nigh complete domination of the energy patterns and chemical forces inherent in your material order of existence. The chief difficulty you experience in contacting with your Adjusters consists in this very inherent material nature. So few mortals are real thinkers; you do not spiritually develop and discipline your minds to the point of favorable liaison with the divine Adjusters. The ear of the human mind is almost deaf to the spiritual pleas which the Adjuster translates from the manifold messages of the universal broadcasts of love proceeding from the Father of mercies. The Adjuster finds it almost impossible to register these inspiring spirit leading-s in an animal mind so completely dominated by the chemical and electrical forces inherent in your physical natures.

 

Rien: So—this is why I am struggling. How in the world do we overcome our problem?

 

Ellen: This solution is simple: Ask for help from your indwelling God-fragment, the Spirit of Truth and Mother Spirit with Her ministry circuit-workers called the adjutant mind spirits, especially those of worship and wisdom. Apply steadfast diligence and stronger pursuits to this endeavor! I promise you, You WILL succeed! This is not a new challenge. Long ago, over two hundred thousand years ago, our elder brother, Amadon, faced this same problem.

 

67:3.7 [Regarding the first years of the Lucifer rebellion on Urantia] This seven years of waiting was a time of heart searching and soul discipline. Such crises in the affairs of a universe demonstrate the tremendous influence of mind as a factor in spiritual choosing. Education, training, and experience are factors in most of the vital decisions of all evolutionary moral creatures. But it is entirely possible for the indwelling spirit to make direct contact with the decision-determining powers of the human personality so as to empower the fully consecrated will of the creature to perform amazing acts of loyal devotion to the will and the way of the Father in Paradise. And this is just what occurred in the experience of Amadon, the modified human associate of Van.

 

Abraham: I find that such spiritual insights fill me with such a gratitude that I have no words to describe. I feel such thankfulness that I have attained this spiritual knowledge which I have sought. At times I can hardly control my glee at seeing the Father’s fingerprints in my morontial pathway. I know you also hold this same feeling of gratitude towards our Heavenly Parent.

 

I would like to make a few comments and give possibly a few suggestions: It is my desire tonight to encourage and ask you to study on those things/subjects in which we have already covered – of course using your Urantia text and possibly the teachings of Ham. It is my desire not to throw too much at you all at once. Therefore, I would ask you to research more on the subject of the mortal mind and how it coordinates with your spiritual growth.

 

Ellen: Yes, Abraham. Let us stop here and commit to what Abraham is suggesting.

 

Ham: Before we close this evening, I would remind us of these things about our Father: Until we meet again next to continue Ellen’s teachings know that Abraham and I are with you in love. Have a blessed week.

Meeting #6: After the meeting Week 29 Kingdom of Heaven: Overview

 

Abraham: Come, let us sit together once again and continue what Ellen has to share.

 

Rien: Thank you Abraham, Ham and Ellen. My week has been very wonderful and I think I am experiencing a new sense of peace. This is so fresh in my heart. Your teachings are helping me in so many ways. I cannot wait to hear more regarding what my personal spiritual potentials might be. I want it ALL! [Alan: Me too. Me too!]

 

Ellen: This fills my heart with joy, like you cannot imagine. Using our time wisely I will continue.

 

It seems that others have stated, and I concur, as new colors possibly emerge over time new experiences in other areas also begin to emerge. This happens slowly. These images I share with you tonight are similar to what others, and myself, have ‘seen’ in the eyes of the mind.

GD grey purple light far away black background air water.png

You may possibly see these colors as you worship—far off and vague at first, then this may come closer and become more distinct over time. More than a few of us have combined our information regarding this violet color. We conjecture that if a few of us have encountered this same violet color in our mind’s eyes then it may be a consistent and hopeful experience for us all.

GD violet smoke black background air water 4.png
GD violet smoke black background air water.png

Some have reported seeing a light veil of ‘smoke’ when fully awake and going about their day. This was short lived, but entirely real. Some have also said that with this emerging communal experience that ‘grows’ over time they experienced an ‘out of phase’ or an ‘out of ordinary time’ episode. I am sure there might be more and varied episodes. We anticipate more personal testimonies over time.

 

Alan: Out of phase? What is this?

 

Ellen: Well, I am not certain, but I thought it is worth mentioning. Amazing, I know. But these people are regular, normal folks just like us. Let us not dwell too much on the sensational. What is of utmost importance is the spiritual progression of the individual mostly experienced in the transcendent uplift of the mind.

 

In saying that, I will go back to last week where Alan asked about the actions of the soul. With this new emergence of this vague violet color it has been shared that a surprising physical sensation began. This report stated that this person began to feel very small convulsions in the center of their body during worship. They ignored it at first, but it continued daily and this sensation began to become a bit more demonstrative as the days went by. This was said to be completely involuntary, yet continued to occur especially during discussions about God with others or coinciding with certain thoughts. This has been quite confusing for this individual. As questions were asked and discussions continued we have been bold enough to posit what this is.

 

We have come to believe that the soul’s expression of goodness to the conscious mind may sometimes be confusing and requires concentration and boldness; devotion in meaningful attempts at, and attaining God and achieving Godlikeness. Now, let us look to our book for some confirmation.

 

101:1.3 The divine spirit makes contact with mortal man, not by feelings or emotions, but in the realm of the highest and most spiritualized thinking. It is your thoughts, not your feelings, that lead you Godward. The divine nature may be perceived only with the eyes of the mind. But the mind that really discerns God, hears the indwelling Adjuster, is the pure mind. "Without holiness no man may see the Lord." All such inner and spiritual communion is termed spiritual insight. Such religious experiences result from the impress made upon the mind of man by the combined operations of the Adjuster and the Spirit of Truth as they function amid and upon the ideas, ideals, insights, and spirit striving-s of the evolving sons of God.

 

Ham: One word I may add briefly, Ellen. Sensations in the body, as Ellen describes, are more of the soul – reflecting the entire body awareness. Whereas sensations in the head area might reflect actions of the Thought Adjusters. Please continue.

 

Ellen: Thank you for that, Ham. This word impress [noun] we deem to mean a stamp, an effect or imprint made upon our mind and then added to and reacted by our soul’s response. And this makes sense as we look at our InWARd picture [see The Supreme Ideal: Religion - Philosophy - Cosmology]. Our souls grow in our mid mind arena where our free will choices are made. What is good and true [our Father’s will] causes our Father to lay down those morontia strands [the loom analogy] in order to build up our soul – to make our soul grow. And, we further know that our ‘soul speaks’. This is what we believe is happening. And some actually experience these spiritual actions of their souls in their own bodies.

 

5:2.5 It is exceedingly difficult for the meagerly spiritualized, material mind of mortal man to experience marked consciousness of the spirit activities of such divine entities as the Paradise Adjusters. As the soul of joint mind and Adjuster creation becomes increasingly existent, there also evolves a new phase of soul consciousness which is capable of experiencing the presence, and of recognizing the spirit leading-s and other supermaterial activities, of the Mystery Monitors [indwelling Thought Adjusters].

 

The word consciousness here is used as a noun and meaning the state of being characterized by sensation, emotion, volition, and thought.

 

Alan: Ellen, this is amazing. I had no idea this kind of spiritual experience was available ['at hand'].

 

Ellen: Well, apparently it is. And I, for one, want it very much! This person attests to their spiritual experience with this consciousness of their soul’s growth as they go about their day to be becoming more and more strong over time. Those friends of theirs who were in the room have witnessed this physical reaction when they have been talking and happen to be looking at their friend while in these spiritual discussions. Yes. This is truly something new and astonishing. And alongside these physical expressions colorful clarifications coincide in their worship events.

GD pink blue violet grey black background air water 4.png
GD violet vortex.png
GD pink violet round air water black background.png

Rien: I really want this also! What is the technique? Is there a simple way to pursue this?

 

Ellen: We think so. We refer to this simple practice, along with Ham and Abraham’s stillness instructions, as the 3 F’s [FFF]. FFF means to employ childlike FAITH, the desire for the FATHER and then the FOCUS of thoughtLESSness, as Ham and Abraham teach. Working to apply all three attitudes at ONE TIME with a combined effort and then holding this in the mind allows more ‘space’ in the mind for your Thought Adjuster to express Himself to you. It sounds simple. And it IS simple, but it does take diligent practice. The mind wants to wander around with those conflicting electrochemical activities in the brain we spoke of earlier. Think of FFF as you are working to train your own mind with this discipline of spirit receptivity. You will succeed!

 

Ham: Yes. I confirm this, Ellen. It is after a clearingness of mortal concern that there can be communication unhindered. In active thinking, there can be no clear communication. The thought activity should be slowed and centered perhaps on a prayerful message to Father, at first.

 

Rien: I feel like I may want to cry. Ellen, do you understand what hope this gives to me? I have always wondered about how to really know God. There has been little to no help in this area of my spiritual life, although far too many have danced around this topic, never really giving any specific advice as to HOW to know Him – to literally experience God, for real. I am so grateful. Words are hard to find to express this.

 

Ellen: I do understand. And, this has been the same for me. I love this passage, and you may too:

 

99:5.9 Primitive man made little effort to put his religious convictions into words. His religion was danced out rather than thought out. Modern men have thought out many creeds and created many tests of religious faith. Future religionists [and this means us] must live out their religion [friendship with God in personal relationship], dedicate themselves to the wholehearted service of the brotherhood of man. It is high time that man had a religious experience so personal and so sublime that it could be realized and expressed only by “feelings that lie too deep for words”.

 

Ham: Often the olden seers were content with only the God consciousness 'sensation' awareness. I am asking you to go further than this – to do as Christ Michael did and reach communion, two-way communication, between your conscious mind and your Thought Adjuster.

 

Praying is most efficacious in this awareness feeling of God. That is, if you speak to Him in a prayerful attitude of childlike humility, often there will be a response – whether it is an inner change of attitude (a peace-awareness of His over-care), or the more directness of consciousness of intent direction; or, awareness of another’s intent or direction. 

 

And still further, there may be direct word messages flashed within into your consciousness. Also, this can be affected from your own indwelling Spirit into your own mind-consciousness level. As Ellen states, some have received already this type of communication and are aware of my teachings. Then again, some are in the earlier stages of change of attitude, awareness of others and their attitude. This change and awareness is in itself life-changing. 

 

Ellen: Yes, Ham. And in keeping with this, I will tell you a few other experiences reported. These are things like seeing pings of light throughout the day while fully conscious.

 

Ham: If I may, I will insert one comment here, Ellen. Truth is ever abiding – that is, it is eternal. We may know truth in fragments; in partial shadows; in lines that fade and grow dark. The truth I speak of is the truth of the one Eternal Father.

 

Father's truth passes not away, nor is it 'true for a time.' His truth is ever abiding and true 'for all time.' Of this truth, we may see but as a pinpoint of light the blazing glory which is His truth. Yet, that pinpoint of light is our guidance, is our hope, is the source of our destiny and the goal of the ages; for truth is an experience of the soul. It is that knowing sense of identification with reality. It is that shock of affirmation. It is that quiet glow of wisdom.

 

Truth is light. Truth is spiritual light which forever banishes darkness. I repeat: Truth is light which forever banishes darkness. There is no shadowy uncertainty in the truth. Truth is that light which forever banishes darkness. Thank you for your patience, Ellen. Please now continue.

 

Ellen: Yes, Ham. Many testify of seeing numerical prompts all over the place in a concentrated span of time [clocks, receipts, credit card numbers, license plates, road signs, etc...] and this list is long, hearing clicks, knocks, metal sounds while worshiping. One person stated that as they were pursuing entering into worship as they thought about their love for their dogs and subsequently they saw in their mind’s eye the silhouette of a dog. This communicated to this person that He did indeed hear them and knew what they were thinking of and trying to do; bring thoughts of love into their communal experience with Him. Another time one mentioned seeing a ‘forward’ sign when asking God for His direction in something they were considering doing in ministry. An individual stated that a dearly cherished love song came through their mind so loudly in the early morning that it woke them up. And, the song lyrics were ones of “Never – never my darling. Never will you be alone!” We have come to believe that these things are not so uncommon once we begin to actually share and discuss them together. This brings hope for our broader future in this growing spiritual family on Urantia whereby our movement towards light and life is becoming quite obvious. Jesus achieved this ‘light and life’ attainment in His purely mortal attempts. This means that WE CAN TOO!

 

And this is fun! We have come to think that these are spiritual encouragements from our invisible friends, our Spirit of Truth, our indwelling God fragments and our beloved Mother Spirit, giving us loving reminders They are with us or using these to give various ‘nudges’ of guidance.

 

Abraham: Such wonderful words, Ellen. Thank you for describing in detail these things of the spirit that are hard of description. But it is important that we do this with humility and the desire to do our Father’s will in loving our fellows by discussing God’s work in our lives.

 

The will of God is ever-changing to suit His child’s needs and educate what this child needs to know. The will of God is like truth – e x p a n d i n g.  It is unlike a pond that sits with no fresh water ever being added or ever evaporating, no, for Father’s will is living and moving. The only thing that stands in the way of Father’s will is His child’s will. Without a continuous surrendering to the Father’s will it is quite difficult for Father to reach His child, and for the child to know what the Father’s will is. So, surrendering is important. The acceptance of Father’s will is also as important. If you are unwilling to perhaps follow through with the direction or lesson Father may have, it is not possible for you to reap the joy that would have come upon completing this lesson. If you are unaccepting of God’s decisions, this does build a barrier between you and your Father – a barrier in trusting, that our God is in complete control of the universes, and none other has this absolute power and order. To trust our Father is to say, ‘Yes, my Father knows me better than anyone. He sits the lessons before me, and I accept what He puts before me and will give it my best effort.’ To be 'willing' and 'accepting' is to also 'have trust in your universal Father.' To trust Him is to be in His will.

 

In closing, let us remember God in our midst:

Meeting #7: After the meeting Week 30 Now: My Potential’s

 

Abraham: Yes, come sit with us. This evening’s meeting was wonderful, yes?

 

Alan: Yes! I will think on this lesson all this week. This information is transforming how I think. I do wonder if I am on target with doing His will in my life.

 

Abraham: If I may say to you, Alan, my perception is that the 'trust' that should be there with your Paradise Parent, is lacking. This is quite normal at this stage of mortal existence. Many are afraid to ‘let go and let God,’ for their faith wavers and they are scared they will be let down; and this is because you have been humanly let down. When your faith in God has been built up is when you realize, ‘this is my Father who is unlike any human example, He will not let me down.’ You may not always understand what God sets before you, but you can certainly learn to trust that He sat this before you for your own spiritual education and because of His total love for you. Learning to do the will of our Father is like trying to reach the top story of a building – there are many floors that you must stop at before you can reach the top; trust being a very important floor, and one you must spend much time at in learning and understanding each successive level. You cannot just ride the elevator to the top. You must stop at each floor, spending time on each one, learning:

 

1. You learn you are really not in control of your divine path.

2. You learn God is.

3. Acceptance for God’s path is another floor.

4. Fully trusting Him (our Father) is still another. 

 

It is difficult for me to explain our perfect Paradise Parents. I don’t know how to tell you – they are so unlike anything you know here. They are fully worthy of your trust, and this is a wonderful step you take in your spiritual attainment.

 

Rien: I had an experience this week that was so wonderfully amazing. [Ellen: Tell us, Rien. What happened?]

 

Rien: I was just sitting alone in my house. All was quiet and I was thinking about how I could serve Jesus better in my life. As I was thinking on this all of a sudden, out of nowhere, I began to have these chills beginning in my head and moving all over my entire body. This was a Very Strong experience and it lasted for a few minutes. It made me have tears of happiness and joy. This could not have been anything other than a spiritual expression to me from somewhere. My angels, perhaps?

 

Ellen: [smiling and holding her hands out towards Rien] YES! A thousand times YES! Although I cannot say from where this came to you, I can attest to the same experience. And this has happened for me many, many times. I expect you will have these kinds of glorious episodes more and more over time as you seek to do your Father’s will. You know Jesus is here with us right now and I am certain He is smiling on our visits. This leads me to want to share a bit more of other’s experiences. May I? [all: Yes, indeed.]

 

I want to show you some more pictures-of-similarity. These are just the best we could find. And let me remind you these spiritual things usually come slowly, slowly and over a span of time. Do not be discouraged if as you try and try things don’t happen much. Then, there are times when these spiritual things are very active. We just continue in our FFF protocols of pursuit of Him. We now come to the color of green. It has been reported that it begins as a vague presentation, but the color is new. And again, this is always in motion. This progresses over time.

Alan: I do not see anything like this, at all.

 

Ellen: Let me take a moment here to remind us all that not everyone sees colors like this. Some experience Him in personal ways of sensations, communications, new thoughts or distinct uplifting in a way hard of description. However, no matter what one ‘gets’ from Him in worship it will always be progressive and reciprocal: Dominant and Transcendent!

 

1:7.2 Man does not achieve union with God as a drop of water might find unity with the ocean. Man attains divine union by progressive reciprocal spiritual communion, by personality intercourse with the personal God, by increasingly attaining the divine nature through wholehearted and intelligent conformity to the divine will [goodness]. Such a sublime relationship can exist only between personalities.

 

We will discuss this further, but here are a few more pictures-of-similarity.

Rien: Yes, Ellen. I am discovering a new clarity of new thoughts that seem to be, how do I say? not of my own initiative. I am thinking differently. It feels like I am being helped by Someone to perceive my life in a brand-new way, a more freeing way. This seems beyond description, but you are saying what I feel. I find myself wanting to be with Him in this way more and more. I think about Him all the time now.

 

Ellen: Perfect, Rien! This is a tell-tale sign of your personal progressive and reciprocal relationship with Him. The key is to aggressively ALLOW and yield to Him as the conductor of your worship.

 

5:3.8 The worship experience consists in the sublime attempt of the betrothed Adjuster to communicate to the divine Father the inexpressible longings and the unutterable aspirations of the human soul — the conjoint creation of the God-seeking mortal mind and the God-revealing immortal Adjuster. Worship is, therefore, the act of the material mind's assenting to the attempt of its spiritualizing self, under the guidance of the associated spirit, to communicate with God as a faith son of the Universal Father. The mortal mind consents to worship; the immortal soul craves and initiates worship; the divine Adjuster presence conducts such worship in behalf of the mortal mind and the evolving immortal soul. True worship, in the last analysis, becomes an experience realized on four cosmic levels: the intellectual, the morontial [soul], the spiritual, and the personal — the consciousness of mind, soul, and spirit, and their unification in personality.

​

Rien, would you say that you are feeling stronger and more unified in your own ‘personhood’? [Rien: Yes, I would say this.]

 

Ham: God has His manner of communicating in allowing us a broader sensitivity – increased awareness to other people and ourselves. This inner awareness is now developing within both of you, and you are becoming more and more of who you are meant to be. 

 

'Self-realization' is a word/phrase often used in connection with meditation; it is these early stages of meditation that we refer to as 'self-realization.' At even later stages of self-awareness realization, there is this God consciousness – communication between the Thought Adjuster and the human consciousness. And further, there is a oneness

 

In future time, there will be no communication between two minds (yours and your God-Fragment’s), for there will be one mind. In doing the decisions of your greater self––your own Indwelling Spirit, who comes from the Father––you are increasingly becoming like Him. You are doing His will for Him and for yourself. You are more closely attuning your will to His; your mind to His; your awareness to His. 

 

And in future time there will be only one [Fusion]. And on that day, when there is only one, you are immortal. You will come to understand the saying that: "There will be no more weeping; no more tears of sorrow, for He will wipe away those tears. There are no more sins to burden you; for all your sins, although they be as scarlet, are white as snow." Yes, for you have become true and noble and eternal citizens of the Father's kingdom, where there is still adventure, still uncertainty, still reward for effort, still effort to reach the eternal Father – but your success is assured. The way is truly open and the faltering is truly no more.

 

This time of oneness is sought by all will creatures, on all worlds, in all universes, in one way or another. This attuning of the ‘creature will’ to the ‘divine will’ is the Father's command: "Be ye perfect as I am perfect." This is the Father's one and only command of you.

 

Ellen: Ham, Abraham – is this enough for tonight?

 

Abraham: Yes, I do think so, Ellen.

 

Alan: Next time can we discuss what you said earlier, Ellen? Will you explain this ‘dominance and transcendence’ for me? I do long for more. [Ellen: Yes, certainly, Alan.]

 

Abraham: Very well then. May we commit together to ponder these things in our hearts this week as we remember the magnificent goodness of our Paradise Father. He is in us, and we are in Him. Let us seek for more aggressive ALLOWING of God to work within each of us as He sees fit to conduct our worship. Until next week. Be blessed.

Meeting #8: After the meeting Week 31 Our Spiritual Power Multiplied: ACTION

 

Ham: How did your week go?

 

Alan: Mine was pretty good. I have something to share with you all. May I? [Ham: Indeed.]

 

I have been troubled with thoughts that I have not wanted in my head and I could not figure out how to get rid of them. Now, please do not laugh. But, I decided to apply a little process I created for myself from something I do every week. I drive to work on a 6 lane highway. On this highway there are many, many exit ramps that I pass by. I decided to think in my mind as I pursued time with Him that these annoying and negative thoughts were simply going to take the exit and continue on without me, as I continued to drive towards my indwelling Father. And, you know what? It is sort of working for me. Does this seem strange to any of you?

 

Ellen: Oh, no, Alan. This is not strange at all. In fact, I find your protocol rather brilliant. I hear you as describing a mental exercise in claiming His dominance in your mind by sending your chosen thoughts elsewhere. You asked for us to discuss ‘dominance and transcendence’ this week. I think this is a wonderful segue. Shall we? [Alan: Yes. I hoped you would.]

 

Ellen: Jesus’ original and highest gospel message is that of God becoming dominant and transcendent in the heart of the believer. We find this here:

​

170:5.19 Sooner or later another and greater John the Baptist is due to arise proclaiming "the kingdom of God is at hand" — meaning a return to the high spiritual concept of Jesus, who proclaimed that the kingdom is the will of his heavenly Father dominant and transcendent in the heart of the believer — and doing all this without in any way referring either to the visible church on earth or to the 'anticipated' second coming of Christ [His first follower’s belief He would return soon]. There must come a revival of the actual teachings of Jesus, such a restatement as will undo the work of his early followers who went about to create a sociophilosophical system of belief regarding the fact of Michael's sojourn on earth. In a short time the teaching of this story about Jesus nearly supplanted the preaching of Jesus' gospel of the kingdom [Father—dominant and transcendent within us]. In this way a historical religion displaced that teaching in which Jesus had blended man's highest moral ideas and spiritual ideals with man's most sublime hope for the future — eternal life. And that was the gospel of the kingdom.

 

I found some definitions that I think will help us better understand what He was teaching.

 

The word dominant is an adjective meaning commanding, or prevailing over all others. When one is dominant this means very important, powerful, or successful in an overlooking and superior position. This is how Jesus described our Father and His aim for us to ALLOW Him to be as such in our hearts.

 

Now, the word transcendent is different. When we desire God’s transcendence within us this means we are expecting Him to exceed our usual limits of the mortal experience. What our indwelling Thought Adjusters do for us is to ‘extend’ us beyond the limits of what is considered to be ordinary experiences. God will literally t r a n s c e n d us beyond material mortal existences. And our Spirit of Truth assists.

 

The Latin verb scandere means "to climb", so to transcend has the basic meaning of climbing so high that you cross some boundary. A transcendent experience is one that takes you out of yourself and convinces you of a larger life or existence; in this sense, it means something "spiritual". We can experience spiritual vision in many various ways over mere logic and what is 'normal'.

​

And our review from the reports of others, and our experiences, yield validity to these very actions of God within. If I may share another passage, we can see, and Ham has taught us, that this ‘climb’ is actually quite real.

​

20:1.1 All descending Sons of God have high and divine origins. They are dedicated to the descending ministry of service on the worlds and systems of time and space, there to facilitate the progress in the Paradise climb of the lowly creatures of evolutionary origin — the ascending sons of God. [This means us.]


Rien: I am experiencing this new dominance in my thinking. I am finding that I want to worship more, rather than watch TV or be online, so much. And I do feel an ‘other’ presence, Ham, Abraham. It feels kind of cozy. Ya know what I mean, Alan?

​

Alan: Yes. For me, I am trying harder these days. When those bad thoughts of mine veered off the road to leave me alone with God, I think I can now remember feeling a bit of an uplift. It was a kind of freedom and relief. It was a very personal victory for me. And, when I walk into my plant and see my many, many co-workers I am now acknowledging that each one of them has an indwelling God fragment, just like me. It is changing how I view them, how I talk with them. This is revolutionary for me in a Very personal way.

​

Ellen: Personal is the right word for this, Alan. The first and ‘cardinal’ feature of our Master’s true gospel message relates to your point.

​

170:4.8 - 14 The Master on this occasion placed emphasis on the following five points as representing the cardinal [first, foremost, premier] features of the gospel of the kingdom:

​

1. The pre-eminence of the individual. [number ONE, the next 4 are dependent upon this!]
2. The will as the determining factor in man’s experience.
3. Spiritual fellowship with God the Father.
4. The supreme satisfactions of the loving service of man.
5. The transcendency of the spiritual over the material in human personality.
​

This world has never seriously or sincerely or honestly tried out these dynamic ideas and divine ideals of Jesus’ doctrine of the kingdom of heaven. [WE WILL] But you should not become discouraged by the apparently slow progress of the kingdom idea on Urantia. Remember that the order of progressive evolution is subjected to sudden and unexpected periodical changes in both the material and the spiritual worlds. The bestowal of Jesus as an incarnated Son was just such a strange and unexpected event in the spiritual life of the world. Neither make the fatal mistake, in looking for the age manifestation of the kingdom, of failing to affect its establishment within your own souls.

​

Ham: Always remember that even if you are not fully conscious of this growth it IS happening for and within you. This spiritual growth requires time to develop itself. You see, the soul (our spirit entity within) will advance and grow by its own momentum, after a point. It is not conscious that this is occurring; yet, is conscious of the difference, within – your consciousness changes with this response to the difference within. Do you see? this spirit response, mental response, takes place at a super – almost consciousness level. It is not quite at an everyday-thinking-ness level wherein you are aware of these changes, yet these changes are in constant occurrence. But at the time of the consciousness of these changes are these levels introverted. Are you understanding? [Alan: I think so.]

​

This spiritual growth-happening is on an infinite continuum; your progress along this infinite continuum is sometimes little, sometimes more. If you remove time, continuum is constant; continuum of soul progression, is constant. Yet, consciousness of this progression, is not. Conscious contact (understanding of the soul) is only incompletion. Is that clear?

 

Rien: Yes, it is clearer. Alan, if you are like me, I believe this will expand in understanding over time. [Alan: Yes. I agree.]


 

Ellen: May I show you some more pictures-of-similarity? [Alan: Please do.]

​

The pink color seems to be less common, and again, this is constantly in motion.

Rien: Wow! Ellen, have you seen this for yourself? This is incredibly beautiful.

 

Ellen: Yes, but, this did not happen at first. It was quite a while before I ever began to see something like this. However, it has grown over time. And, allow me to remind us all tonight that what someone sees or feels or hears does make someone better than any other. We are simply different. Our goal is not to be sensational about our spiritual experiences. We are meant to be merely interested, encouraged, enlightened and excited for each other’s personal growth in these spiritual episodes. It is such a shame that we, as lowly mortals, tend to measure ourselves by another. This is not good and so this would not be Father’s will. If I hear of someone’s spiritual experience that I have not had I ask for Father to ‘adjust’ me into what He wants my attitude to be. We can never grow tired of reminding each other this. Yes? [All: Yes. Yes.]

 

Ham: In light of this, Ellen, I might give an even further teaching. It is difficult and dangerous ground for each person to decide which is real Thought Adjuster communication, or is 'inner-thought wish-fulfillment,' as you say, and so forth – which is unduly glorified by our own inadvertent thought process. It is always hard, and especially in early times, to know the difference. There is distinctly an 'otherness,' which is not your thought, but 'received thought.' It is difficult. It is very difficult to distinguish the difference, yes, but in time and with practice you will begin discerning the difference – if it is ‘just yourself’ which is wonderful and good for you, or if it is known to be from Him, your Father. My lessons are also meant for wish-fulfillment, in a way. I teach how to become more aware of God and a wish to do His will – this is wish-fulfillment also. Much will be taught this way. Many examples in earthly life may be given. Your indwelling Spirit is always working with you – and yes, I say this with authority – even in this life, for your earthly betterment and happiness. In many teachings of the world 'this life' is not to be cherished but 'the next life' only, is important. I say with authority – cherish this life; cherish your souls; cherish your bodies; cherish your spirits. Love yourselves, your fellows, your God, and your life.

 

Abraham: Such wonderful teachings, Ham, thank you. And, I think trust is a big issue for many. I say, God is unlike any human you have ever encountered. He is most reliable, and it would be wise to disassociate God with any human example in your lives. Regarding our pursuit of God within; a full trusting attitude in our Paradise parenting does protect us from mental agony, and from strain and punishment on our physical. Said Jesus: “I cannot traverse the waters of adversity for you, but I can go with you, step by step, through them." This trust is a difficult thing for mortals. They put their trust in each other and are many times disappointed. They are untrusting of their mortal acquaintances, and therefore they are conditioned to not trust. This can affect our thinking in worship. Yes, it is unbalanced to have faith and not trust. To have a blanket of faith with your threads going one way and the threads of trust crossing over them, is more complete, is filled with strength and durability and comfort. Without the threads of trust, the blanket of faith is just threads. Can you appreciate my meaning? [All: Yes.]

 

Ellen: Abraham, with all sincerity I will tell you that I still struggle with trust today. My faith is strong, but sometimes my fears rise up and I have to work to discipline my mind to TRUST Him with what I do not know might be in my future.

 

Abraham: Ellen, thank you for your honesty. I perceive your humble sincerity is comforting for Rien and Alan who are just beginning their pursuits of God within them. I think this is a good place to halt for tonight. What are your plans for next week, Ellen?

 

Ellen: I will prepare a few more pictures-of-similarity that are quite interesting and beautiful. Also, I have some reports of other’s experiences that are much less often but fairly huge in terms of quality. I think we might all be very interested.

 

Ham: Thank you, Ellen. We are in anticipation. In closing tonight let us remind ourselves: The light of God surrounds us. The love of God enfolds us. The power of God protects us. The presence of God watches over us. Wherever we are, He is. Until next week. Good night.

Meeting #9: After the meeting Week 32 Jesus/Michael: Creator Sons

 

Abraham: Our meeting tonight was enlightening, yes?

 

Ham: Yes, it was, Abraham. I want to say to you that my real experience with God within me is one that goes beyond a form of description. As we learned this evening; He who sees the Son has seen the Father. Jesus/Michael is ever-present in His person with you and at all times. Ellen, what will you share with us tonight?

 

Ellen: Let me begin with some more pictures-of-similarity. These reports tell of a new blending of colors. Here are some examples. They begin as more vague but clarify over time:

Ellen: Some descriptions we could not find adequate pictures-of-similarity. But what is shared regarding these, and other testimonies are quite stirring. As we pursue God with our FFF technique [Faith – Father – Focus] we have agreed that He seems to becoming more of a Thought Controller, rather than a Thought Adjuster. This is when spiritual growth seems to ramp up within our minds and hearts.

 

107:0.3 On the evolutionary worlds, will creatures traverse three general developmental stages of being: From the arrival of the Adjuster [age 5 or 6] to comparative full growth, about twenty years of age on Urantia, the Monitors are sometimes designated Thought Changers. From this time to the attainment of the age of discretion, about forty years, the Mystery Monitors are called Thought Adjusters. From the attainment of discretion to deliverance from the flesh, they are often referred to as Thought Controllers. These three phases of mortal life have no connection with the three stages of Adjuster progress in mind duplication and soul evolution.

 

All I can do is to tell you about the testimonies that I find most interesting, encouraging and hope-inducing.

 

Spiritual experiences that are not dreams.

 

One person explained of being taken up into the starry cosmos by someone beside them who was not seen, but ‘felt’. This Personality asked them some questions and then stated an instruction, “Do you see that you cannot maintain this without me? [yes] Do you understand that you are not like me, and you cannot ever claim to be more than you are. Be exactly who you are. No more, but no less. If you cannot do this then we cannot work with you. Do you understand my words? [yes] Then this individual stated that they found themselves in a situation of challenge. In this challenge some people came forward with smiles and friendliness only to change their attitudes into malevolence. The reaction of this subject was an immediate declaration of the name of Jesus and it all stopped. From there the explanation was one of floating through the walls of the domicile. What next occurred was they went out the exit and then back up into the starry cosmos with this same Personality who repeated everything again. This subject’s responses were the same as previously stated. Then, their mortal partner was instructed to wake them up. I left out some details choosing to only share the basics. This was a quite POWERFUL experience that has maintained its clarity for many years and up to today. This was not a dream. We have concluded that dreams dissipate over time, but these kinds of spiritual experiences never lose their clarity. And – they expand over time in meaning and value.

 

Another report describes a ‘flash’ of experiencing what it is like to be in our cosmic community where the influences of the Lucifer rebellion were non-existent. This feeling of community love and freedom was exhilarating and gave this person great hope for their future as a cosmic citizen.

 

A separate testimony describes a person on the side of a huge coliseum with a throng of mortals in almost complete darkness. Many of these people were having various reactions to what they were watching and hearing from a circular stage in the center. They saw about 7 people standing on this higher and circular stage where all 7 were lit up like glowing white/blue LED lights and they were simply talking in a normal tone of voice. One was a businessman, another was a woman holding her baby, another seemed to be something like a construction worker etc… These illuminated people were simply sharing the true gospel message of Jesus, “The kingdom of God dwells within you.” Again, this was quite a POWERFUL experience and one that seemed to hold a message of something coming in the future.

 

One person spoke of a ‘visit’ from a strong Personality in the night, in their mind. This Personality was described as violet in color with a shimmering interior that slowly moved closer and closer until this person felt entirely enveloped. An incredible sense of love emanated from this Personality and it was overwhelming. A few months later this same Personality revealed themselves in the same way but at a farther distance. It sent a bright flash of light and then a sensation of warmth, chills and deep, deep love, again completely enfolding them in something that they said cannot be described with words.

​

7.21.2025 Adding a recent and new report: 

​In a moment where this person ran across a passage speaking to the fact that we have ALL made choices, at one time or another, that have not been His will, that which is good and true. Immediately, this person began to feel badly about those memories of failure. And then just as quickly a spiritual experience began. The report states that there was a demonstrative 'feeling' as if a large hand were gently pressing down on their chest. The analogy speaks to this being as if a heavily weighted blanket descended upon them - and remained for about an hour. This person stopped all activity and began to quietly worship in a heartfelt reach-out to God within. The thought-message came into their mind and it spoke this, "Stop. Do not go backward in your thinking. Yes, you have not always done the right thing/s, but you never acted with vengeance, malice in order to harm someone.  This is not who you are. Feel my love for you. Embrace my enduring peace." This spiritual intake was one of kindness, healing of the mind, LOVE and peace.

 

These are a few testimonies. There are many more. But for now I will move on to some others reminding us all the while not to become envious or to see ourselves as less if we have not experienced anything like this—yet. Your experiences are YOURS. We are not to put upon someone else what God has shown to us personally. Sometimes directions for the future are alluded to. Hear this:

​

118:3.2 “Things are time conditioned, but truth is timeless. The more truth you know, the more truth you are, the more of the past you can understand and of the future you can comprehend.”

​

So, there is something to this statement that we can comprehend some of our future. This is a bit stunning. [Rien: It is. My goodness!]

 

There appears to be an expanding and “renewing revelation” at hand, and this “renewing revelation” is the resurrection of the Master’s gospel of “the kingdom within” as he promised.  This is the very gospel He taught his followers 2000 years ago.  Time seems to move very slowly for us as mortals on earth, but as we mature, we discover that we can SEE the end from the beginning.  In fact, it is stated that “the Spirit of Truth will even show us things to come”.

 

180:6.4 "This spirit will not speak of himself, but he will declare to you that which the Father has revealed to the Son, and he will even show you things to come; he will glorify me even as I have glorified my Father. This spirit comes forth from me, and he will reveal my truth to you. Everything which the Father has in this domain is now mine; wherefore did I say that this new teacher would take of that which is mine and reveal it to you.”

                                                                  ~ Jesus

 

We have been told this would happen.  Revelation is growing for the specific purpose of expanding more on what the Urantia papers have revealed, and it will not stop growing until the Master’s gospel message is understood and embraced.  We choose stillness and peace. More revelation will come to us in the near future! Our challenge is in asking ourselves how can we help our brothers and sisters here and now in our time as we find ourselves attempting to live intensely in the present?  

 

How do we find words to adequately express our religious experiences in such a manner that others can understand?  It MUST be the Father’s will to challenge ourselves to do MORE for each other personally and collectively. We will be directed to do what must be done. Let us remember the early Forum members were asked to gather together to learn what the Urantia papers were revealing: We too are asked to come together in unity with patience and understanding.  I think the Revelators used that Forum group to cause them to THINK about how to understand the revelation and ask pertinent questions.  As a result, the Revelators were given a rare opportunity to observe human reaction to the papers. Now, 90 years later, we have become better able to develop a much deeper understanding and comprehension of these same papers.  It has been 70 years since the first publication of the Urantia papers. As we ‘see’ into the future we look for how we are to manage how we can interpret what we are learning as the revelation grows.  

      

As we experience this new ‘dominance’ and ‘transcendence’ of God’s work in our own lives we can see that we are growing over time, sometimes slowly, but sometimes this growth comes very fast. Embrace the fact that you are in progressive spiritual growth – ALWAYS! This will be confirmed for you as you recognize your ever-increasing desire for your personal contact with Him in worship.

 

Rien: Alan and I have shared more about what we are experiencing with Him. His experiences have encouraged me, although mine are very different. I find them so powerful and yet simple. Alan, will you share some more of your experiences with us?

 

Alan: Yes, Rien. And thank you. I think, because I know it all begins with my childlike faith I come to Him in my mind as a little boy. I had a very loving father. He had a simple yet strong personality. I think about reaching up and taking his hand when he would walk me across the street. Similarly, as I reach out for my Paradise Father’s hand in this spiritual realm, I had an experience of actually ‘feeling’ this. It was simple, but it was also profound. I have also thought of Him waiting for me at a table. He is alone and He is waiting for me to sit down with Him. When I do – He is there. I ‘feel’ His pleasure. I KNOW He is with me. Again, very simple, yet SO powerful in His love, care and desire for me.

 

Ham: Yes, Alan. YES. There exists a difference between the idea or thought of God on one hand, and the experience reality of Him on the other. Most people have an idea of the Lord as an abstraction, almost with very little inner personal communion or feeling-development (soul-development) with Him. It is the experiencing of God which develops the soul. It is reliant upon the mental capacity for understanding this experience. It is the humanizing of this experience, and the personalizing of this experience, which causes those spiritual forces to mobilize and cause spiritual growth for the individual.

 

There is no spiritual growth without thought – without the thinking, reasoning, wise understanding of the spiritual experience. At first this experience is limited and fleeting. Yet, if it is pursued wisely, sagaciously, this experience becomes, and makes, the individual become more and more real. As you realize your potential spiritual growth, this active transfer of purely spiritual (and with some, mental) energies causes the phenomenon of soul growth; and this soul becomes a morontia reality. Are you understanding?

 

Alan: I am, yes. Does the soul become a morontia reality while we are yet mortal?

 

Ham: Yes. It is the combination of the material, mortal, mental process—with the purely spiritual input from the Father, the Thought Adjuster/Controller—that this combination produces a new reality. This is a life-long project for both parties involved. The mortal mind must grasp and understand the spiritual reality for it to be made real for that individual. It is a process of becoming who you really are; the process of realizing your mortal potential – which potential shall extend to the morontia worlds, but it is begun on this world. Therefore, it is important that you receive and understand my teachings. I am saying, it is important that I make these teachings clear and understandable; and therefore, if there are any doubts or problems in understanding, please do not hesitate to say so.

 

Rien: Can the physical mind prevent certain people from attaining a full awareness in their spiritual identity?

 

Ham: It is the physical mind which prevents. Yes.

 

Alan: Could you please expand on what you mean by 'spiritual realities' – especially in a mortal frame, that a mortal could understand?

 

Ham: Yes. Spiritual realities. I have difficulty in trying to convey this because it is the only reality for me. For some who are in a much more limited state of perception, this is more of an 'idea' than a 'truth.' Am I perceiving the question correctly? (Alan: Yes).

 

Ham: This truth is as real to me as the chair you’re sitting in is to you. The physical material reality is such a limited place; it is so confined that the greater spiritual world is unrecognized by your limited perception. Therefore, in order to perceive the spiritual reality of the world, one must see with spiritual eyes, perceiving the value, the beauty, the goodness – which goes beyond mere physical realities. Does that help clarify? (Alan: Yes).

 

Ham: Sometimes it is difficult to expand the mind to the point of grasping the greater spiritual reality. Yet it is this grasping, this expansion, which is necessary in order to enfold and incorporate this greater reality into a personal experience – which causes spiritual growth and soul ascension.

 

Alan: When we reach our first stage of morontia life, the Urantia Papers disclose we have some seventy senses. Is it possible to develop these senses in the same relation as you are saying, that we become a morontia form on this plane? Is it possible to develop some of these senses while we are still in our earthly state?

 

Ham: Yes. Your perception of reality expands as you ascend and expand the soul. It will never be as dramatic a change as when in a morontia body, but you can experience, to a limited degree, the same. (Alan: Thank you.)

 

Rien: I am remembering one of our favored passages; the one about the ‘eyes of the mind’. I keep this in my purse to look at through the day.

​

101:1.3 The divine spirit makes contact with mortal man, not by feelings or emotions, but in the realm of the highest and most spiritualized thinking. It is your thoughts, not your feelings, that lead you Godward. The divine nature may be perceived only with the eyes of the mind. But the mind that really discerns God, hears the indwelling Adjuster, is the pure mind. "Without holiness no man may see the Lord." All such inner and spiritual communion is termed spiritual insight. Such religious experiences result from the impress made upon the mind of man by the combined operations of the Adjuster and the Spirit of Truth as they function amid and upon the ideas, ideals, insights, and spirit strivings of the evolving sons of God.

 

Ellen: Yes, Rien. Perfect! This constant reminder and practice will cause your soul to grow. And then your soul will begin to ‘speak’. This can be quite puzzling. The soul’s expression of goodness to the conscious mind may sometimes be confusing and requires concentration and boldness; devotion in meaningful attempts at, and attaining God and achieving Godlikeness.

 

Abraham: It is getting late, but what a superb night of thinking, learning and sharing. In closing I might add that unity in worship and prayer experienced in social groups becomes loving and confirming only when shared, and we can discover a new expression of thanksgiving only when we realize we must be truly effective lovers of mankind.

 

God is with us, everywhere we are. He never leaves us. Wherever we are we know we are loved – being loved at all times. Ellen, will you share again next week?

 

Ellen: I will. My next preparation will lean towards some experiences where the unexplained has happened in terms of physical/material actions. I look forward to sharing again.

 

Ham: Then may we each commit to pursuing God and keeping in mind what is working for others. Alan’s techniques are quite meaningful. Ellen’s reports are confirming of His activities in progressing our spiritual comprehension of what is possible for each of us in the ways that God sees fit. Until next week.

Meeting #10: After the meeting Week 33 Happy Birthday Jesus!

 

Abraham: What a marvelous and beautiful meeting this evening! I would restate some things, if I may? [All: Yes, please do.]

 

“Life is never-ending. Love is self-revealing. Love is Jesus’ greatest revelation to you, now and forevermore. Love is abiding when all things earthly shall pass. Give each other your only true gift – love; show our little ones the path of love and truth. Commissioned are you all; take upon yourselves this solemn responsibility to our Master, Jesus.”

​

He says to our hearts, “My children, it is I. I am the Vine, you are my branches. Open, open your hearts. Allow, allow me to be with you. My dearest children, I wish to gather my disciples from across the land. You who will be my present-day workers, sow the seeds of your foundations well that you may be the planters for the generations to come on this sphere which has so long, too long, been cut off from direct input. This I know. I trust and have faith in your inner-beings, your true selves, your willingness to be the harvester of souls. I am deeply touched by all of you! 

​

Open now your hearts. I will touch all of you with my love. [pause] I am always with you, always aware of your struggle. Do not ever feel that you have been forsaken. You will be the impetus for my rebirth.

​

I love you all. Reach out now. Hold my being close to you until you are with me in the Isle of Paradise. Sow your seeds deep; water them with spiritual waters and allow the rays of warmth from the Son – for that is who you gather your strength from. Yes, I am He, and will never fail you. My peace to you all. Carry on.” ~ Jesus

​

Rien: When I hear His words they seem to be ‘living’. His words seem to have healing powers within them. I am so thankful!

 

Ham: Yes, Rien. You are experiencing His spirit which brings life and healing to all who have faith and then trust in Him. Ellen will bring some testimonies of great interest. However, before we go there, I will share a lesson from one who knows a great deal regarding true material healing.

 

Horace says: “The method by which these healings are taking place is not miraculous. No. It is a method used often in many diverse situations in Satania. The healers (healing agents) who perform these healings are Life Carriers. They are well in understanding of physical/material bodily structures, and effect healing through energy-transfer and rearrangement of stimulus patterns within the body. 

 

There are within living cells an energy which can be either stimulated for growth and secretion of chemicals; or, cell death and removement. Each living cell within the body carries these attributes within itself. Specialized cells in organ structures are utilized in varying degrees, depending upon the problem. Often when a change in cell stimulation or cell death has occurred, then this change is permanent (lasting) so that after healing is completed, permanent change has been affected and the body’s natural harmonious balance is restored. These healings, as I say, are not miraculous and instantaneous.

 

It is our hope and desire for all who seek this healing to understand its mechanical effects. Yes, it is at once, dependent on faith, also. Often with the spiritual/mental poisons of the mind, fears can chemically imbalance the body which greatly retards this healing effort. Simple faith is very necessary – not only for energy channels to open within and allow healing to take place, but for mental soundness in healing acceptance.

 

Halfhearted wavering between doubt and belief is detrimental, both mentally and spiritually, and can set back healing efforts. Faith is miraculous in itself. Faith is extra-material, yet not fully spiritual; it is mental, physical, and spiritual. It is personality coordinated, unified, and directed.

 

Faith is the most wonderful gift there is to will-creatures and the most wonderful gift will-creatures may give the Father. Yes, even so, even in your darkest hours, your faith is your saving grace, gift, and bestowal.

 

Alan: I would like to ask on the lesson that Teacher Horace gave us on healing: If my understanding is correct, that the healing goes through channels like water goes through pipes. If there are valves in those pipes that are turned off it is faith that opens those valves so the healing energy can flow through. Is that correct? (Ham: Yes, in a way. Correct by analogy.) [Alan: Thank you.]

 

Rien: I have an injury from many years ago that continues to cause some rather chronic pain. Can this be cured without the help of the Life Carriers?

 

Ham: No. This is a peculiar Life Carrier prerogative and is not available, per se, to mortal man, except in certain drug therapy and the like, which is a form of chemical realignment – different than the cell-stimulation through faith. This will become more and more fine-tuned as civilization progresses.

 

Injurious healing is always the same – it is healing by growth-regeneration of cells which also secrete chemicals for their protection and pain diminishment. It is hard to explain the many chemical reactions which take place in wound-healing. There are many thousand.

 

Rien: When Jesus was on the planet—when He was doing healing/s – was this the same healing that Teacher Horace was talking about, just sped up? Was this such a technique, or was it miraculous?

 

Ham: The Creator Son has many prerogatives in creatorship ability. He is unique in all His abilities in this universe. Depending upon the healing situation/requirement, He is able to use many different levels of energy transfer, even material energy transfer, which causes instantaneous (more or less) healing. This is unique to him.

 

There is no suffering which our Father is unaware of. He does not turn away from those who need. He is suffering with anyone who suffers; and, He is ever-present in the heart of all who believe. It is not any part of God's plan for us to allow for suffering. It is the natural outworking of the overall divine plan to allow man his free will. Adult freewill decisions, and multiplied over long periods indeed, may result in much human suffering. We are all God's children – small children and adult, alike. No suffering is in God's purpose for us. Evolution and human societal structuring, is progressing – and will eventually eliminate this horrible spectacle of intense human misery. It is a passing age on Urantia which will someday sprout into a new world – one in which there is becoming (year after year) a very lessened human suffering; yes, less pain and less misery. Perplexing as it is to witness such suffering, know that it is a passing thing. You must use spiritual eyes to see. The dawn will come after the darkness.

 

Rien: Can I really ask for healing with my injury? I do understand you to say that some healings happen over time.

 

Ham: It can be treated by Life Carriers if you desire. Remember: Individual remedies for individual persons. Your Thought Adjuster knows best, Rien. [Rien: Thank you so much.] Let us move on to Ellen’s preparations for tonight. Ellen?

 

Ellen: What I share with you tonight are just a few reports of instances where potential tragedies seem to have been avoided by supernatural means. I remind us all, once again, we do not seek to sensationalize these things, or to make these occurrences the center of our appreciation. It is our Father and His Son who we are fully recognizing as our central focus, not even His supernatural actions that require faith. This is why Jesus always told His healed children to not tell anyone for the focus then shifts all to often to the event, the ‘signs and wonders’, rather than the spiritual powers that we enjoy in our personal relationship with Him. Agreed? [All: Yes. Absolutely, yes.] Here is what we know:

 

136:8.1 The next great problem with which this God-man wrestled and which he presently decided in accordance with the will of the Father in heaven, concerned the question as to whether or not any of his superhuman powers should be employed for the purpose of attracting the attention and winning the adherence of his fellow men. Should he in any manner lend his universe powers to the gratification of the Jewish hankering for the spectacular and the marvelous? He decided that he should not. He settled upon a policy of procedure which eliminated all such practices as the method of bringing his mission to the notice of men. And he consistently lived up to this great decision. Even when he permitted the manifestation of numerous time-shortening ministrations of mercy, he almost invariably admonished the recipients of his healing ministry to tell no man about the benefits they had received. And always did he refuse the taunting challenge of his enemies to "show us a sign" in proof and demonstration of his divinity.

 

One report came from one who had made the highest free will choice to do the Father’s will at a very young age. Subsequently, at the age of about 24 years this person met with a terrifying experience. In a large ocean bay the very small sailboat capsized at sundown. No other boats were in the bay, as all had gone home. The boat was sinking and these 2 people were far out in the waters. The woman, in her ‘time of the month’ realized that blood in the water likely would attract sharks. This was an experience of great fear with potential for disaster. NO ONE WAS AROUND TO HELP! Almost immediately a boat was ‘there’ with 3 young and viral men who offered to help right the little boat before completely sinking. The boat was righted so the 2 people could head back to the shore. Within about 2 minutes this woman turned around to see that there was no one in the bay. There was no boat with 3 men in sight—anywhere. No one was there! Again, this was a very large bay and the line of sight was void of any other humans or boats. Where did they go?

 

Another testimony was given about 2 people driving in a car. In a moment of great concern, while making a fast turn, other cars were headed their way and a crash seemed imminent. The coming car, headed for a direct hit, simply ‘passed through’ their car with no accident occurring. How. Is. This. Possible.?

 

These experiences were great faith-builders. We just recently got a new report of a multiple decade spinal injury that seems to be completely healed after a sincere request of the Life Carriers for healing. There was a cooling sensation and then an ongoing easing and calming in that spinal area. The release of pain is reported to be continuing as each day goes by.The recognition that help is available when accidents of time and space are imminent brings an enduring peace with accompanying faith and trust. There have been other stories shared of interventions that seem inexplicable. All of these testimonies of healing-s, protections and various spiritual upliftments within the heart, mind and body are not really so unusual in our universe. What we are challenged with is accepting the actions of our invisible family and friends, here to help us not only find and know God, but to discover our paths to helping Others Find and Know God! This is what our Master desires, and HE is our highest desire for service, loyalty and obedience. When we commit to the doing of our Father’s will – help is at hand. Once we get these things figured out for ourselves we will be in much better shape to serve Him faithfully with immense trust!

 

However, let us always remember what our Master said after the great healing at sundown, “Rejoice not that my Father is powerful to heal the body, but rather that he is mighty to save the soul. Let us go to our rest, for tomorrow we must be about the Father’s business.” ~ Jesus [145:4.2]

For now, this concludes our Attainment 2025 section. What follows is the description of a worship protocol that was begun by a follower of Jesus 12 years ago, who only had the book. This person had no human direction and did not know to 'go slow'. Ham and Abraham teach for us to work spiritually in small steps, but this person dove headlong into their pursuit spending hours at a time daily in diligent practice over a number of months, and then through the following years. For this person, it proved to be surprisingly effective. 

2012 To Attain Our Paradise Father: Introduction

​

 

Introduction

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This Journey To The Father in pursuit of personally knowing God is not really complicated. It is

actually a very straight-forward process. Now, our effort may become massive. However, the

protocols are EASY! This is good news.

​

160:1.10 Rodan ~ But even correct methods of solving problems will not compensate for inherent defects of personality or atone for the absence of the hunger and thirst for true righteousness.

In other words: We MUST WANT IT!

​

1:6.5 Some degree of moral affinity and spiritual harmony is essential to friendship between two

persons; a loving personality can hardly reveal himself to a loveless person. Even to approach the

knowing of a divine personality, all of man's personality endowments must be wholly consecrated to the effort; halfhearted, partial devotion will be unavailing.  This original message of the high spiritual concept of Jesus, who proclaimed that the kingdom is the will of his heavenly Father dominant and transcendent in the heart of the believer, is not to be overthought or made difficult.

 

There are some simple steps to achieving this original gospel message experience that Jesus taught.

 

These easy 6 steps are:

 

1 ~ Possess whole-hearted desire and devotion for true righteousness: Your Paradise Father!

 

2 ~ Make time in your schedule for this isolation of silent worshipful meditation and follow through.

 

3 ~ Balance your body with clean habits to provide stabilized neural energies (remove all mental

      poisons).

 

4 ~ Prepare your mind with child-like faith, a thankful attitude and reflections that bring love to it.

 

5 ~ Hold your mind with patience in suspended, balanced and motionless poise and wait for Them to

      work with you.

 

6 ~ When triune harmony of body, mind and spiritual powers are lost repeat this process as many

      times as needed. We will do this many, many times over as we progress these planetary circles from

      the seventh to the first.

 

Persistence:

 

“Prayer is the breath of the soul and should lead you to be persistent in your attempt to ascertain the Father’s will. If any one of you has a neighbor, and you go to him at midnight and say: ‘Friend, lend me three loaves, for a friend of mine on a journey has come to see me, and I have nothing to set before him’; and if your neighbor answers, ‘Trouble me not, for the door is now shut and the children and I are in bed; therefore I cannot rise and give you bread,’ you will persist, explaining that your friend hungers, and that you have no food to offer him. I say to you, though your neighbor will not rise and give you bread because he is your friend, yet because of your importunity he will get up and give you as many loaves as you need. If, then, persistence will win favors even from mortal man, how much more will your persistence in the spirit win the bread of life for you from the willing hands of the Father in heaven. Again I say to you: Ask and it shall be given you; seek and you shall find; knock and it shall be opened to you. For every one who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks the door of salvation will be opened.” ~ Jesus, 144:2.3

 

Gathering energy:

 

But the greatest of all methods of problem solving I have learned from Jesus, your Master. I refer to that which he so consistently practices, and which he has so faithfully taught you, the isolation of worshipful meditation. In this habit of Jesus' going off so frequently by himself to commune with the Father in heaven is to be found the technique, not only of gathering strength and wisdom for the ordinary conflicts of living, but also of appropriating the energy for the solution of the higher problems of a moral and spiritual nature. ~ Rodan, 160:1.10

 

May we enjoy many conversations relating to this personal and private endeavor to Journey To The

Father and ATTAIN HIM for ourselves.

Step 1 ~ Possess wholehearted desire and devotion for true righteousness: Your Paradise Father!

Man does not achieve union with God as a drop of water might find unity with the ocean. Man attains divine union by progressive reciprocal spiritual communion, by personality intercourse with the personal God, by increasingly attaining the divine nature through wholehearted and intelligent conformity to the divine will. Such a sublime relationship can exist only between personalities. 1:7.2

 

So...let’s break this down:


Man does not achieve union with God as a drop of water might find unity with the ocean.

 

We do not experience Him like one drop of water might be diffused into an entire ocean of similar drops of water where it all becomes the same. No! We are UNIQUE. Our personalities have come from Paradise each one totally different just like each snowflake is unique and never one exactly like the other. Our Father fragments have also come from Paradise. Union with God in communion means that this is a completely new and never-before seen or experienced relationship. Comprehend what I am telling you in this moment. Your Father longs for YOU as another one of His only begotten child of Himself. His love for you is specially designed for YOU and YOU only! If you aren’t finding Him in this way you are missing out on something life-changing and personally transformative.

 

Man attains divine union by progressive reciprocal spiritual communion,

by personality intercourse with the personal God.

 

For me to try and explain this to you would be a bit unfair. My Father and I experience our very personal ‘intercourse’ in our relationship. I’m not exactly sure what it will be like for you as you are unique to Him. I can tell you that it began one way and has absolutely morphed into what I know and experience today...often times when I am fully awake and going about my day. However, it began with my EFFORT to find Him in a quiet place with my mind held in a silent poised position waiting with childlike faith for Her to reshape my mind, for the Spirit of Truth to pull me up into a place closer to Him and then He was able to come closer to me. And all of this happened in ‘pure mind’. Here’s that passage:

 

The divine spirit makes contact with mortal man, not by feelings or emotions, but in the realm of the highest and most spiritualized thinking. It is your thoughts, not your feelings, that lead you Godward. The divine nature may be perceived only with the eyes of the mind. But the mind that really discerns God, hears the indwelling Adjuster, is the pure mind. "Without holiness no man may see the Lord." All such inner and spiritual communion is termed spiritual insight. Such religious experiences result from the impress made upon the mind of man by the combined operations of the Adjuster and the Spirit of Truth as they function amid and upon the ideas, ideals, insights, and spirit strivings of the evolving sons of God. 101:1.3

 

 

...by increasingly attaining the divine nature through

wholehearted and intelligent conformity to the divine will.

 

This is a process of yielding our desires to be more in line with His.

>  This is a process of intelligently choosing for ‘my will to be His will’.

>  This is a process of allowing Him (and Her ~ our Mother Spirit) to do the work

    within unimpeded.

>  In this process and over time we become ‘conformed’ to His divine will in our minds and thus in

    the living of our lives.

​

This comes by increasing increments of attainment as we put forth energy to commune with Him in personal spiritual experience.

 

 Such a sublime relationship can exist only between personalities. 1:7.2

​

Be ~ His unique one and only YOU...the little baby in His loving arms.

Faith is all that is required ~ Marin

But the greatest of all methods of problem solving I have learned from Jesus, your Master. I refer to that which he so consistently practices, and which he has so faithfully taught you, the isolation of worshipful meditation. In this habit of Jesus’ going off so frequently by himself to commune with the Father in heaven is to be found the technique, not only of gathering strength and wisdom for the ordinary conflicts of living, but also of appropriating the energy for the solution of the higher problems of a moral and spiritual nature. But even correct methods of solving problems will not compensate for inherent defects of personality or atone for the absence of the hunger and thirst for true righteousness. ~ Rodan of Alexandria (our great philosopher) 160:1.10


Jesus is always our role model and the highest example of what and how we should be doing things. He encouraged His group to go out into the hills by themselves and in the near silence of nature He taught this technique of gathering strength and wisdom for the ordinary problems and conflicts like we face in our own lives today. Could we use some spiritual strength to help us face and maneuver through the conflicts in our lives? Do we wish for more energy to deal with the challenges of our daily living? We, ourselves, need help from above that will show us the solutions for these higher difficulties that require better moral responses of a more spiritual nature. This is what Jesus did all of the time. This is what is available for us any time that we need it.

 

The only question is:

Will we carve out the time in our lives to do this and find Him?

​

The effort toward maturity necessitates work, and work requires energy. Whence the power to accomplish all this? The physical things can be taken for granted, but the Master has well said, “Man cannot live by bread alone.” Granted the possession of a normal body and reasonably good health, we must next look for those lures which will act as a stimulus to call forth man’s slumbering spiritual forces. Jesus has taught us that God lives in man; then how can we induce man to release these soul-bound powers of divinity and infinity? How shall we induce men to let go of God that he may spring forth to the refreshment of our own souls while in transit outward and then to serve the purpose of enlightening, uplifting, and blessing countless other souls? How best can I awaken these latent powers for good which lie dormant in your souls? One thing I am sure of: Emotional excitement is not the ideal spiritual stimulus. Excitement does not augment energy; it rather exhausts the powers of both mind and body. Whence then comes the energy to do these great things? Look to your Master. Even now he is out in the hills taking in power while we are here giving out energy. The secret of all this problem is wrapped up in spiritual communion, in worship. From the human standpoint it is a question of combined meditation and relaxation. Meditation makes the contact of mind with spirit; relaxation determines the capacity for spiritual receptivity. And this interchange of strength for weakness, courage for fear, the will of God for the mind of self, constitutes worship. At least, that is the way the philosopher views it.  160:3.1

Thank you Rodan, our GREAT philosopher ~ Marin DeJohn

​

 

 

 

Balance your body with clean habits to provide stabilized neural energies.

​

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When the development of the intellectual nature proceeds faster than that of the spiritual, such a situation renders communication with the Thought Adjuster both difficult and dangerous. Likewise, overspiritual development tends to produce a fanatical and perverted interpretation of the spirit leadings of the divine indweller. Lack of spiritual capacity (relaxation of mind) makes it very difficult to transmit to such a material intellect the spiritual truths resident in the higher superconsciousness. It is to the mind of perfect poise, housed in a body of clean habits, stabilized neural energies, and balanced chemical function — when the physical, mental, and spiritual powers are in triune harmony of development — that a maximum of light and truth can be imparted with a minimum of temporal danger or risk to the real welfare of such a being. By such a balanced growth does man ascend the circles of planetary progression one by one, from the seventh to the first.  110:6.4

 

So, we DO receive ‘spirit leadings’ from our indwelling Paradise Father fragment.

We already HAVE spiritual truths resident in the higher superconsciousness.

 

>  What does it mean to have a body of clean habits?

>  What does it mean to have a mind with stabilized neural energies?

>  What does it mean to have a mind with balanced chemical functions?

 

Do we want that maximum of light and truth that can be imparted?

Again, ‘balanced growth’ refers to a process of progression of these spiritual planetary psychic (simply spiritual insight) circles that our Paradise Father has created for us to move through.

 

Here’s the nugget of truth we need to know:

HE DOES ALMOST ALL OF THE WORK FOR US!

All we need to have is faith. All we need to do is to ‘yield’ to His good will.

 

What does it mean to have our physical, mental, and spiritual powers in triune harmony of development ?

 

"Religion is the spiritual rhythm of the soul in time-space harmony with the higher and eternal melody measurements of Infinity."  195:7.20

 

What is harmony?

​

n.  Agreement in feeling or opinion; accord: live in harmony.

​

n.  A pleasing combination of elements in a whole: color harmony; the order and harmony of the universe. See Synonyms at proportion.

 

development (dĭ-vĕlˈəp-mənt)

​

n.  The act of developing.

​

n.  The state of being developed.

​

n.  A significant event, occurrence, or change.

 

As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.  131:2.

 

It is our thinking, driven by our God-given personalities,

that determine what we will FEEL on a daily basis.

​

Do you want to FEEL better? Well, this is your answer to that desire.

​

Faith is all that is required.~ Marin

To Attain Him:  Step 4

 

 

 

 

Prepare your mind with child-like faith,

a thankful attitude and reflections that bring love to it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

​Childlike belief ~ faith ~ is the key.

 

Then ~ what is next?

 

What are these ‘progressive steps of righteousness’ resulting in LOVE?

​

170:3.3 It is in the consideration of the technique of receiving God’s forgiveness [capacity] that the attainment of the righteousness of the kingdom is revealed. Faith is the price you pay for entrance into the family of God; but forgiveness [mercy] is the act of God which accepts your faith as the price of admission. And the reception of the forgiveness of God by a kingdom believer involves a definite and actual experience and consists in the following four steps, the kingdom steps of inner righteousness:

​

170:3.4 1. God’s forgiveness is made actually available and is personally experienced by man just in so far as he forgives his fellows. [they are not our children, they are His children]

​

170:3.5 2. Man will not truly forgive his fellows unless he loves them as himself.

​

170:3.6 3. To thus love your neighbor as yourself is the highest ethics.

 

ethics

​

n.  The study of principles relating to right and wrong conduct.

​

n.  morality.

 

n.  The standards that govern the conduct of a person


Moral conduct, true righteousness, becomes, then, the natural result of such love.

This is not a ‘theory or concept’ of love. It is the real thing comprehended by actual experience with our indwelling Father in personal spiritual worship and then we PRACTICE this love by extending it to our fellows. This is the progression of growth.  170:3.7

​

It therefore is evident that the true and inner religion of the kingdom unfailingly and increasingly tends to manifest itself in practical avenues of social service. Jesus taught a living religion that impelled its believers to engage in the doing of loving service. [Not acts done for profit...monetarily or in ANY other form...but altruistic] But Jesus did not put ethics in the place of religion. He taught religion as a cause and ethics as a result.  170:3.8

 

Do we want to FEEL free from emotional strife...depression...painful memories...shame...anything like these that cause us to lose integrity of ‘living’?

 

This is the answer.

 

Faith is all that is required.~ Marin

'In returning to your spiritual rest shall you be saved; in quietness and confidence shall be your strength.’ They who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles. They shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not be faint. The Lord shall give you rest from your fear.  131:2.6

Receptivity and Capacity...meditation and relaxation

​

That’s the technique of worship!


Rodan’s words are poignant: Jesus has taught us that God lives in man; then how can we induce man to release these soul-bound powers of divinity and infinity?

 

How shall we induce men to let go of God that he may spring forth to the refreshment of our own souls while in transit outward and then to serve the purpose of enlightening, uplifting, and blessing countless other souls?

​

The Lures of Maturity

The effort toward maturity necessitates work, and work requires energy. Whence the power to accomplish all this? The physical things can be taken for granted, but the Master has well said, “Man cannot live by bread alone.” Granted the possession of a normal body and reasonably good health, we must next look for those lures which will act as a stimulus to call forth man’s slumbering spiritual forces. Jesus has taught us that God lives in man; then how can we induce man to release these soul-bound powers of divinity and infinity? How shall we induce men to let go of God that he may spring forth to the refreshment of our own souls while in transit outward and then to serve the purpose of enlightening, uplifting, and blessing countless other souls? How best can I awaken these latent powers for good which lie dormant in your souls? One thing I am sure of: Emotional excitement is not the ideal spiritual stimulus. Excitement does not augment energy; it rather exhausts the powers of both mind and body. Whence then comes the energy to do these great things? Look to your Master. Even now he is out in the hills taking in power while we are here giving out energy. The secret of all this problem is wrapped up in spiritual communion, in worship. From the human standpoint it is a question of combined meditation and relaxation. Meditation makes the contact of mind with spirit; relaxation determines the capacity for spiritual receptivity. And this interchange of strength for weakness, courage for fear, the will of God for the mind of self, constitutes worship. At least, that is the way the philosopher views it.  160:3.1

​

When these experiences are frequently repeated, they crystallize into habits, strength-giving and worshipful habits, and such habits eventually formulate themselves into a spiritual character, and such a character is finally recognized by one’s fellows as a mature personality. These practices are difficult and time-consuming at first, but when they become habitual, they are at once restful and timesaving. The more complex society becomes, and the more the lures of civilization multiply, the more urgent will become the necessity for God-knowing individuals to form such protective habitual practices designed to conserve and augment their spiritual energies.  ~ Rodan 160:3.2

​

This is so very straight-forward.  Jesus showed us the way.  Rodan recognized it!

To Attain Him: Step 6


 

 

 

When triune harmony of body, mind and spiritual powers are lost repeat this process as many times as needed. We will do this many, many times over as we progress these planetary circles from the seventh to the first.

​

​Reason is the proof of science, faith the proof of religion, logic the proof of philosophy, but revelation is validated only by human experience. Science yields knowledge; religion yields happiness; philosophy yields unity; revelation confirms the experiential harmony of this triune approach to universal reality.  101:2.8

Added note of something to consider:

 

Mysticism, as the technique of the cultivation of the consciousness of the presence of God, is altogether praiseworthy, but when such practices lead to social isolation and culminate in religious fanaticism, they are all but reprehensible. Altogether too frequently that which the overwrought mystic evaluates as divine inspiration is the uprisings of his own deep mind. The contact of the mortal mind with its indwelling Adjuster, while often favored by devoted meditation, is more frequently facilitated by wholehearted and loving service in unselfish ministry to one’s fellow creatures.  91:7.1
