Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Spiritual Insight”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “Human beings have achieved a certain level of spiritual progress when they realize that their priority is to achieve likeness to the Father, self-mastery, and the progressive perfection of being. The wisdom they have gained does not make them better than their siblings but does allow them to live life with significant ease and experience true and deep satisfaction. You can live and work in the world while at the same time you are preparing for a life in eternity. You can do your material work with such an investment of love that it becomes an endeavor of spiritual service, promoting your advancement and that of your peers toward perfection and progress.
The true needs of material life are never in contradiction with the spiritual needs. In fact, those who endeavor to satisfy their spiritual needs are much more successful in the task of solving their material difficulties and facing their struggle for survival in the world with more resources and advantages than those who only concern themselves with material things.
The life of human beings does not have to be difficult to promote spiritual advancement. It is true that many arrive at the gates of spirituality through many tribulations, but this is only because they have not allowed their souls to awaken to higher truths through their desire to find God. A more spiritual life does not magically solve all the problems of life but does provide a more comprehensive point of view that helps you see your problems from a more informed perspective. Those who find problems in their lives after awakening to the realities of spirit are less affected and have more possibilities to resolve them than those who face similar problems from a purely material perspective.
You can start now to live your life as a spiritual being who lives in a material world, because this is what your really are. Focus most of your attention, your efforts, and your resources – of your body, your intellect, and your soul – in the achievement of the things that are important in your life, those things that have eternal value and will not perish with your material body. By living life in this way, you will find that everything you need to live in this world you already possess and you will lack nothing that is necessary for your progress towards the achievement of your purpose in life.”

Teacher: Jesus.
Subject: “Proper Use of the Mind.”
Message received by Lytske.
Jesus: “The reason why I want you to use the name Jesus, rather than Michael, is because most people who chance to read this message will identify more with the Man Jesus, rather than with the Ruler of a wonderful and well-ordered universe, who goes by the name of Michael. Please give me your full attention for a short time as I have been following your thoughts about how make proper use of your God-given talents and also how to make the fullest use of your mind whilst still living in the flesh.
“The reason why I desire to ‘jump’ into your thought-stream is because it is extremely important for my human children to become increasingly aware of the workings of their minds. Since you can only think one thought at a time, and since whatever you think about finds its way into the very tissues of your being, you can bring about health or ill-health from anything on your mind, depending on the force or desire behind it.
“The Father has endowed you mortals with free will, so it is entirely up to you to curb the less than wholesome thoughts, lest you bring into existence something you really don’t want. It is ever so that what a man or woman thinks about, will come about. Think healthy thoughts and the whole body benefits, think mundane and ill-conceived thoughts like anger, un-forgiveness or resentment, or any other spiritual poison, and you can harm your body beyond repair.
“Humans are in charge of their own thoughts, no one else is. So I counsel you to become more mindful about the thoughts arising in your mind. Therefore, the most important point I am making is this: Practice an ever increasing present-centered awareness, and when you engage your mind in this, the gathering of new information will become easier. Your memory will also become far more accessible to you, ‘brain fog’ will be lifted, and timely re-call of important matters will be closer at hand.
“‘Sloppy thinking’, out of control, random thoughts, and hasty actions have brought no end of misery to this wonderful planet. Therefore, if each day people would consciously engage in well-directed thoughts, it would bring the mind to more elevated thinking. Such training benefits the entire system as one would truly be on the way to self-mastery, which is a requirement for spiritual progress and which will benefit you all enormously with progress at your next level on the mansion worlds. It is here in your mortal estate where you can make the most progress.
“Think about what this would mean to you individually, to be able with a measure of self-discipline and self-correction and with proper use of your God-given mind make your life more joyful. See yourself becoming an island of peace with a closer connection to your Creator, who desires that all his evolving children experience this wonderful connection. It is your choice and free will decision to do so. I leave you with my peace.”

Teacher: The Beloved.
Subject: “In Partnership with God.”
Message received by Lytske.
The Beloved: “It is vital that you begin to realize how important Stillness is. It is in the Stillness where your true needs are known and answered. Your true-needs and hunger are hidden away from even the nearest and dearest to you. They cannot even begin to know your needs, since they do not know their own.
Usually, this is the proverbial tip of the iceberg. Truly, can you name one hidden need of your own? If so, then you may be sure that someone else has the same unrealized need or longing.
Underneath all the veneer, glamor, glitter, and shine, the business of the outward world, there exists the true soul-needs, hidden out of sight. By neglecting to come into the Stillness at least once daily, humankind forgets to replenish their hidden resources.
The soul is like a gold mine, where golden nuggets lie undisturbed and well out of sight, and so, people die never having developed that richness of soul through faith and trust in the Creator.
God placed that urge-link in the human soul with the eternal hope that humankind would answer the call of the Spirit within, and by their free will establish that vital link through prayer and meditation.
Your destiny is to journey back with your Partner within to the Giver of all good things, bringing with you all the developed gifts the Creator bestowed upon you – all these gifts, which long remained hidden in the soul, waiting to be discovered via the established vital link of faith and trust.”

Subject: “Take Charge of Your Emotional State.”
Message received by Anyas.
“Happiness and joy take origin in the inner life. You cannot experience real joy all by yourself. A solitary life is fatal to happiness. Even families and nations will enjoy life more if they share it with others.” [UB, 111:4.7]
Thought Adjuster: “Because of its unalienable nature, your free-will co-creative prerogative puts you ultimately in charge of your happiness. Even though others’ misguided free will decisions adversely impact the quality of your life, it serves you well not to wallow in self-pity. In any given situation, you have reactional options: either you rise above the circumstances or you let them defeat you.
For your reference and edification, be on the outlook for inspirational self-made happy individuals. Observe how they operate on the inner. Many of them were born with severe handicaps; others acquired them later in life — accidentally or through addictive behaviors. In both cases, they have to face their challenges, as blame and denial are the worst advisers.
“It is forever true: The past is unchangeable; only the future can be changed by the ministry of the present creativity of the inner self.” [UB, 111:4.12]
By being proactive, you have it in you to protect your inner world from emotional pollutants. Use gratitude as an empowering anti-depressant. It cannot but elevate your spirits and flood your organism with high-octane energy.
Anger is one of the most powerful emotions. It dangerously ramps up out-of-control energies, leaving destruction in its wake. On the other hand, adopting a stance of gratitude has a positive ripple effect. An optimistic take on life embellishes your inner world with cheerful colors, encouraging you toward the eventuation of truth, beauty, and goodness — becoming a positive agent of both inner and outer change.”

Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Your Life Purpose”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “Everything that comes from the Father shares His nature. In other words, it is like the Father. Human beings are creations of the Father and therefore they have in their personality the seed of His divine essence, and this can be developed to become like God, with the help of the Internal Teacher – the God Fragment – that was sent to reside in the souls of mortals.
When human beings ask themselves about the purpose of their lives their ideas are influenced by the materialistic ideas of this world. Therefore, the desire to be ‘great’ men and women in the eyes of humanity is most prevalent while little thought is given to being useful for civilization and creation. Greatness of personality is not something that is achieved by great deeds and actions. True spiritual greatness is based upon the degree in which a person has aligned her will with the divine will.
Those who want to express their purpose in life – the purpose for which you have come to experience a material life – should focus on the tasks the Father has already placed in their hands. The purposes of the Father are expressions of His nature, so everything you do in the world to satisfy your deep desire to know what your role is in the great play of creation should also express the divine nature.
All actions intended to feed your material ego are a waste of time, because they are far from the nature of the Father. The Creator does not call attention to Himself nor demands cult following or praise. We love the Father simply for what He is – a Father who loves us unconditionally and who is always giving the best of himself to us. For those who know the Father love arises spontaneously when they perceive the goodness of His nature. This is the same nature that is expressed through us as we grow in spirit.
Your purpose must reflect the intentions and actions of the Father, being mainly an expression of love. This always implies loving service to your peers, since it is what the Father would do if He was in your shoes. In the end, the purpose of a human life is to create a being like God from a material creature. As much as you achieve this goal during your lifetime you will be coming closer to your true purpose, and you will experience the deepest satisfactions of the soul.
The loving service to your peers has many aspects and is not limited to a specific profession or task. You can serve your siblings and promote the existence of an increasingly better world by the way in which you perform your job, in the love you invest raising your children, in the way you behave within your group and your civilization, in the ideas you share and support, in the leaders you choose to extend your ideals throughout society. In the end, service to your peers is a goal you can reach through several paths, depending on your talents, your inclinations, your aspirations, and your desire to make the will of the Father more prevalent in your life. As you can see, the purpose is the same for all, but the expression of this purpose is always unique, original, and personal, subjected to your free will and your creativity.”
