Teacher: Ophelius.
Subject: “Let Us Begin Again.”
Message received by Chris Maurus.
Teacher Ophelius: “Let us, again, speak about the topic of meditation and its vital role in continued spiritual growth and healthy mind balance. On this world, especially, where there are so many distractions and others competing for your attention, you can easily find yourself living in a continuous state of doing rather than being. It is important that you honor and nurture your ‘beingness’ by setting aside time to connect to your Higher Self and suspend the busy world around you. You students on the path that have at one time or another made a practice of meditation know how important this is to your whole mental, physical, and spiritual natures. For it is the peace that surpasses all understanding. If you have ‘fallen off the wagon,’ so to speak, it is time to, once again, climb aboard the peace train and get back in ‘atunement’ with the Spirit of Peace and Understanding — the Inner Pilot.
There are many reading this message today who feel they have lost a part of themselves they once knew and fear they are far too out of touch with spirit to come back into this sacred space of peace and understanding. I tell you there can be nothing further from the truth, for each is indwelled with a fragment of the Creator that absolutely loves and adores even one moment out of your day that you think about your connection to all there is. The more moments you find to be in this space, the greater does your inner life expand. It is in this expansion that you see more clearly the path ahead. It allows you to step outside of the busy-ness of the material world and immerse your soul consciousness in the Sacred Relationship. There is healing here, there is unconditional love here, and there is peace beyond anything you can find in the illusions of your world.
“Come into this place and let go of all your worries and concerns. This intimate time between you and your Creator is of no concern to anyone — come, the door is wide open for you to enter into the sanctuary of peace and understanding. No judgment will you find there — no guilt, no regret, only the higher love of the Divine. It matters not what you have done, or said, or whom you have trespassed against; the arms of love, forgiveness and mercy are open and waiting for you to sort it all out. Come children and lay down in the tall green pastures beside the still waters of life and look up into the heavens and dream the biggest of dreams and embrace the greatest love you will ever know. All things are possible under heaven and earth and when your thoughts in this space turn to faith, love, forgiveness, compassion, and understanding, you reflect the image of the Higher Self and the connection to the divine is realized.
You see, dear one, when you let go of the concerns for the day and let go of everything you think is important, you merge into the unity of Spirit where your consciousness is free to ‘be’ one with all consciousness. Beyond this world, there is a river of life that flows in one direction — home where the Source of all life is. All things that resist and flail against the currents of time will eventually surrender to the unity of peace and understanding. This is what you do when you come into this space — you surrender to the unity of Peace and Understanding and become like it.
“Join me in this clarion call to oneness and unity. Let us begin again.
“Peace to you,
“The Circle of Seven.”

Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Use Your Mind – Part 2.”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “The life of Jesus offers the best living example of a human being using all the resources of his mind to discover God. Jesus studied as mortals of that time did. He transcended the thought and ideas of his environment by daring to think freely and by freeing himself from the established limits of dogma and outdated beliefs. Jesus became spiritualized by nurturing the hope that finding God was possible and that, in fact, it was the purpose of human life. The image of his Father in heaven that his mind discovered was so beautiful that his personality could only feel fulfilled by striving to live like that image of truth, beauty, and goodness.
Through his exploration, Jesus built the most beautiful image of God that had ever been conceived in this world. When the mortal personality has contemplated such an image, it desires nothing else but to become like that image. All human beings naturally love beauty, and while many may choose not to see this image in order to preserve their materialistic tendencies and remain in their comfort zone, once they have seen the Father in a fuller way, it is very difficult for them to want to turn back.
You begin to perceive the value of living examples. When men saw how Jesus lived and marveled at his goodness and his love for his fellow beings, their spirits were moved in such a way that a great transformation took place within them—an illumination that completely changed their perspective on life. Some who lived with the Master—such as Judas and Jesus’ enemies in the Sanhedrin—chose not to truly see the beauty of his personality and instead chose to explain in alternative and false ways what they observed. This is a sad example of human beings using their minds to foster their own destruction. In truth, only those who wish to see will see.
This is how the Father would wish His children to live their lives: with their minds open to discover truth and with the hope that it is possible to find God and to know His will. In this way, the progressive revelations of truth, beauty, and goodness that come into their lives will not go unnoticed, and they will be more effectively influenced, stimulating their individual personality toward ever more spiritual and elevated achievements.”

Teacher: The Beloved One.
Subject: “Attitude is a Choice.”
Message received by Lytske.
The Beloved One: “Dear one, of the many hats you have worn in life, I know you relish this hat the most. To be of service in this manner to the Creator of All in that some of these transmitted message seeds might hopefully find fruitful soil in which to germinate. We are well aware that these messages are sent out with a heartfelt prayer to do the work of enlightenment for those who might just by chance let them percolate in their heart of hearts.
“All souls will ultimately be fed and watered by whatever comes their way. The souls nurtured by these messages are blessed in many unknown ways. As always the Universal Father Creator dishes up something good at his banquet table of abundance, just like you are nurtured by unexpected gems and insights you never yet thought of.
“Like when you discovered to your great delight that the mind is the connection and facilitator between spirit/soul and matter. How exquisite for a human to start thinking in this fashion, which invites deeper and higher thoughts and lifts the person above the humdrum of life, when every day seems so ordinary and the same as usual.
“When it seems that nothing out of the ordinary ever happens, all of a sudden a new thought can enter the mind just like that saying you read from Victor Frankl in the little book: “Man’s Search For Meaning.” He relates the story that whilst being in the concentration camp and observing other prisoners, the realization came to him ‘that between thought and response lies man’s greatest freedom — that of attitude — even when everything else is taken away.’
“Human beings are truly capable of inspired thoughts and actions; the secret is their attitude towards life and the way they live it. Everything hinges on the thoughts held in the mind and the space between thought and response and is decided by man’s attitude, which shapes the mode of living of each human being.
“Attitude colors everything in life. It is the richest freedom anyone can choose and exercise to fulfill their eternal destiny through the divine blueprint given to each mortal at birth with the precious chance of chooseing to become immortal. No one is able to take away this choice Gift due to the fact that the spirit/soul, once given life, is eternal.
“It is hoped that each mortal shall eventually come to this realization and nurture this Gift, even though the human is able to renege on God’s Gift of eternal life, when shunning it or choosing to intentionally go against God’s Will. This choice is always available to all.
“The Universal Creator never coerces anyone against his or her will. This is exactly the reason why mortals have been given free will to choose to become immortal and live forever. The other reason is that the Creator expects each mortal to become a co-creator with Him and therefore gave the one command ever given: Be ye perfect as I AM perfect.
“This is the clarion call reverberating through all the ages of eternity past, present and all future forever.
“The question to all mortals is: What is your attitude towards these Gifts?”

Subject: “About Taste Buds.”
Message received by Anyas.
By definition, taste buds contain the taste receptor cells, also known as gustatory cells. They are located around the small structures known as papillae found on the upper surface of the tongue, soft palate, upper esophagus, the cheek, and epiglottis. On average, the human tongue has 2,000-8,000 taste buds.
Thought Adjuster: “There is so much more to life than what meets the eye. Your vision is just one of your senses that help you explore your holographic reality – what is real to you in your human experience. What about your taste buds?
Let us zoom in on that complex sense of your being that is taken for granted, and yet is so complex. Isn’t the fact that you have been endowed with the gift of taste buds another proof of the loving intention behind your conception?
Truth, Beauty, and Goodness are multidimensional as well, and some of their many facets can be experienced through the medium of your physical senses. Your taste buds allow you to explore the TLC put into your food. The Father intended for you to have a pleasant gastronomic experience, and His Helpers engineered an extensive variety of palatable foods, dressing them in attractive colors and clothing them in a multitude of shapely outfits.
Indeed, here too the keyword is diversity. Diversity keeps boredom at bay. Your taste buds are another proof of this universal trend. You could survive on a bland, generic diet that contains all the necessary vitamins and nutrients. Yet, many freebies have been provided for your ‘en-joy-ment.’ Can’t you gather from the testimonies of your little taste buds that the potential of joy is present everywhere?
Your taste buds are amazing in their complexity. They are like software that allows you to detect the texture, temperature, degree of saltiness, or sweetness of a food, and more. They quickly dispatch warning signals to your brain if the food is unsafe: too hot, stale, spoiled, and more. They have been conceived for your safety and your enjoyment. Isn’t that what loving parents do for their children?
Dear ones, learn to embrace life’s miracles! Become alert observers of what constitutes your current reality. So many things, small and big, will start acquiring a sharper definition, giving rise to an ongoing attitude of gratitude. You will come to KNOW for a fact how loved and blessed you are from the cradle to eternity!”

Subject: “Mansion World Care and Sincerity.”
Message received by George Barnard.
The Scribe: “We have spoken with you in the past about Mansion-World Care. Perhaps at this moment in time we can manage to ‘come a little closer’ to giving you a better understanding of what the Mansion World Spheres have to offer, especially to those souls that are making their way from the worlds held back by rebellion. However, not only your kinds of (rebellious) worlds, but many newly populated ones fall into the category that need extra loving care for former humans to later flourish in the hereafter.
(A lengthy question is here asked but the sound is all but lost — something to do with how troubled Urantians are compared to most other humans).
“Absolutely! You have heard of the term, ‘Heaven on Earth?’ Does this look like heaven on our earth? No, nothing like it. Far from it. And when your new body comes to life in the Resurrection Halls of Mansonia One, your experiences have already been told in rather great detail and the potential difficulties in you making a success of your new Mansion World life will have been assessed. A Carer — a Mansion World Carer — will have already been appointed and such kind of specialists can be encountered anywhere in our universes.
“We are not blind, my friend. We know you live in circumstances far from ideal in your western world, whilst the majority envies you for you ‘having it so good.’ True, there are some among us whom you may see as ‘cold’ by virtue of the specific tasks they perform, but their use of time is measured, efficient and their mannerisms may seem short and to-the-point. Most of those you will be dealing with will be ever so thoughtful and patient, yes, sincere in their ways and this is what we will ask of you former humans, sincerity, sincerity, sincerity.
“One may be considered to be a great spiritual mind whilst dwelling on this planet. Another might well be classed as, what you call, a spiritual novice, not at all interested in anything spiritual, just wishing to live on when it is time to die. Chances are both individuals will be taught in the same Mansonia classrooms because, you see, there’s really no great difference between these two from ‘heaven’s’ point of view.
“To answer you both more clearly, yes, Urantians and almost all who hail from the worlds of rebellion, require a lot of care, but after that they tend to outperform most others. Consider yourself lucky to be toughened, yes, hardened by such a troubled world.
“I am the Damascus Scribe.”
Receiver’s note: The questions came from a reader and from me. Both were answered.
