The Damascus Scribe (Sananda).
Subject: “About Groups.”
Message received by George Barnard.
The Scribe: “There are some who call me Sananda, even Lord Sananda. Some call me the Scribe. Why, however, do I prefer the latter over the former? It will be easy for you to understand, for when I worked with your Master, Christ Jesus, in perfect unity (in Damascus), it was then that He came closest to knowing My loving mind — human met divine.
“Personalized is what I became, rather than being fused with a human to gain personality. And I have since been given permanent local universe tasks of great importance to Nebadon. Creature contact, however, is my need. From the most elevated of Deity to the lowest of God-knowing mortals, aloneness can make one feel diminished. We are, all of us, of a common ‘sociable spiritual DNA.’
“Little wonder then that as one’s foundational earth life expires into mansion world existence, mortals carry on with the trend they earlier established. Those who were rather sociable on this planet soon find thermselves belonging to a group and soon after to more than one group to either learn from, or teach to. Those less affable simply take longer, but they will never buck the trend toward greater involvement.
“To belong to a group is to teach and learn. On your steady climb to perfection the behaviors of others — right or wrong — present ever clearer windows into the self with the opportunity to, in both instances, improve your mindset and behavior. Might I suggest that your countless centuries and more on Mansonia and further study worlds will destine you to become a Urantia poster child?
“There is nothing like your involvement with spirituality and mindal challenges to give you an awareness of the shortcomings of the human mind endowments that must function with the electrochemical brain. Beyond your earth life it is all electrical with all aspects of the morontia minds. And of the vastly more advanced angelic mind you will one day inherit.
“I can tell you but little about the angelic mind right now. Suffice it to say it can accurately predict outcomes on scant input. It can ‘bring time forward’ to evaluate circumstances that have not yet occurred. It can look back in time and observe places never visited, but these are minor aspects some of you can achieve today.
“More about what your future minds will do for you waits to be revealed. For now I ask you all to prepare yourself each day to becoming Urantia’s universe graduates. I Am the Damascus Scribe, closer to you than your beckoning call and leaving you My Love.”

Teacher: The Scribe.
Subject: “The Peace that Surpasses all Understanding.”
Message received by Chris Maurus.
The Scribe: “Today, let us pause and reflect on what it means to live in spiritual peace. Peace is a conscious state of tranquil surety and knowing that you are safe and that all is well in the current moment and in your outlook on the immediate future. It is a knowing that no harm shall befall you and that you hold no ill will for any other person or group. When I speak of spiritual peace, it is an inherent peace that is the embodiment of the Indwelling Spirit, the Thought Adjuster. This is the root of all peace because life in time and eternity is fostered on the creative principal of completion of perfection in time, and so all the creative forces and administrative beings of the universes work together to promote the safe passage of all souls that they may attain eternal life and become partners with the Creator. There is peace in knowing this and faithfully believing it.
“Even while you live on a world where darkness abounds in many places and your surety of safety is not guaranteed, you can still hold this peace of spiritual surety that your soul and the continuity of your personality and identity is safe for eternal passage through the universes time and onto the perfected worlds of Havona and the Isle of Paradise. You are to be loved, educated, and trained to become god-like and to take your place as a co-creator in the Great Plan to bring all things to relative perfection and completion.
“There have been many that have mortally damaged their vessels and have moved through the valley of the shadow of death prematurely and have returned to the earth. While in their brief stay in this higher vibrational state, they retain a partial memory using the undeveloped morontial mind (soul mind) and take back with them this new ‘peace of mind’ that all is well having a renewed sense of purpose to become partners with the Creator and to participate in the Great Plan. They have experienced, first hand, the truth of spiritual peace, having shed the flesh and its heavy influence, to stand and bathe in the brilliance of unconditional love — the native state. There is not one who moves through the doorway of death, having foretasted this spiritual peace, that desires to return to the earth to finish their ‘tour of duty.’ Once tasting the purity and sweetness of spiritual peace, the desire for unity with the Creator is all-encompassing.
“Your ‘tour of duty’ is like a contract. You have partnered with your Thought Adjuster who is to guide you through your stay on Urantia to gather all the experiential nuggets of wisdom that shall prepare you for your next adventure in the universe. Each adventure in the many realms of creation is a steppingstone that leads to unity with the Creator Father. As you grow, you add valuable experience to the equation of the Great Plan — to bring all things to relative perfection and completion. Spiritual peace is ‘knowing and believing’ you are loved and cared for by the Creator and all your celestial siblings that watch over you. ‘Knowing peace’ comes from the Adjuster presence in your mind, and ‘believing peace’ is your faith in the eternal surety of unity with the Father.
“Your eternal welfare is the business of Spirit. Take solace in the fact that you are a cherished child of God and reflect on ‘The peace that surpasses all understanding.’
“Peace be upon you,
“I AM the Scribe.”

Teacher: The Beloved.
Subject: “The Urge for Self-Expression.”
Message received by Lytske.
The Beloved: “A receptive heart, soul and mind, are the requirement for you to increasingly realize the blessings of the eternal Creator.
To increase your openness to My guidance, you need to become more aware of any selfish thoughts that might come between you and Me, any judgment towards others, any unloving thoughts, any thoughtless words spoken in haste. These roll on throughout eternity and come back to haunt you, to wake up your conscience, and teach you how to become more loving. It is with an unconditionally loving attitude towards others that the highest level of a righteous character shall eventuate.
We are here discussing a spiritually fragrant personality with the character being trained through self-discipline, to learn how to become the best you can be under all circumstances and conditions life has to offer. I am speaking about the ideal you, which I am helping you to uncover and discover.
The eternal Creator has given each mortal a tiny seed to develop, just like a small acorn holds the life-pattern of a mighty oak within itself. It has the urge for self-expression and development, to grow and seek the light of the sun’s warming rays. Meanwhile, it learns to cope with the cold harsh winds and rains, which help it develop a strong and deep root system, so it cannot be uprooted by the elements.
Likewise, this is what you are doing in building up trust and faith in Me as your strong root system, and as your personal Trainer, I urge you to unfold the divine pattern within you, which I hold within My Being.
This is why coming into the Stillness is so important and profitable to you, as you attempt to listen more intently to My guidance, and learn to follow My leadings ever inward, forward and upward.”

Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Traditionalist or Non-Conformist?”
Message received by Anyas.
“Slavery to tradition produces stability and co-operation by sentimentally linking the past with the present, but it likewise stifles initiative and enslaves the creative powers of the personality.” [UB, 66 :6.2]
Thought Adjuster: “In your world, traditions and handed-down belief systems have morphed into handicaps that impair the full expression of human personalities, depriving them of the lifegiving oxygen injected by innovative initiatives.
Due to the unstoppable evolutionary process of planetary life, traditions require regular facelifts to keep in step with the cultural advances. The dissemination of information would be seriously impaired if you still used chalks and slates, stubbornly refusing to embrace the benefits provided by the advent of the digital age.
Jesus stressed that, because the truth is alive, it follows a growth curve to keep enlightening human minds. The individual level of open-mindedness or the self-imposed stagnation dictated by closed-mindedness determines in which spiritual age you operate: the dark age of fear, guilt, and shame or the age of enlightenment.
One can break down modern-day traditions into routines, customs, fashions, and habits — two-edged swords. Through self-discipline and repetitions, toxic addictions can be traded for healthier lifestyles, thus enhancing the quality of life. On the other hand, those who refuse to venture off the beaten track turn it into a place of confinement where they surrender their God-given freedom of choice without giving it a second thought.
Planetary spiritual advancements occurred in leaps, bounds, and rebounds leading from a state of lawlessness to a broader revelation of the Father’s way. The seven initial prohibitions given to humankind over 500,000 years ago went missing for ages due to the tragic ripple effects of the Lucifer rebellion. Moses, who lived from 1530 to 1410 BC, reframed them in an enlarged second edition in the form of ten stern commandments necessary to tame unruly human minds.
Jesus reduced all these don’ts to the single do of the Golden Rule — trading fear-inducing deterrents for a positive enticement.
How do you lead your spiritual life? Are you operating under the tutelage of the liberating truth that prompts you to do the right things through joyful personal initiatives, or do you merely refrain from doing the wrong ones? Answer for yourself.”

Teacher: The Damascus Scribe (Sananda).
Subject: “Serving the Sovereign.”
Message received by George Barnard.
The Scribe: “I begin this lesson with a confession and for anyone having arrived at the Urantia Papers from a former fundamentalist religion such comment as this must be lip-smacking delicious. It is often noted that mankind is born in sin, but I say, ‘Not so fast!’ The Creator’s gift of personality is pure, is unspoiled and perfect. Anyone or anything hailing from the Father of All that Exists is perfect and is most likely to remain so, as long as he or she continues to dwell in pure spirit form. Thought Adjusters dwell in, and are, of pure spirit.
“The infinitely varied personalities allotted to His human children are essentially perfect, yes, perfect in essence, but by arriving in your most inequitable space/time they almost inevitably will become corrupted. In earth time and morontia lives they need to become both experienced and once more perfect, slowly, slowly on. Heaven indeed holds its breath waiting for its earthly children to do what is right and it rejoices when their decision making is according to the Father’s demand for them to once again ‘be perfect by choice in imperfect surroundings, yes, eventually as He is perfect.’
“I know your text tells you that no one may speak about Thought Adjusters in an informed way. After all, we are the Mystery Monitors and so very much about us is incomprehensable to you. It truly is. Suffice it to say that, firstly, your text predates the Correcting Time and in keeping with the rebellion’s adjudication new rules do apply and secondly, I am a Thought Adjuster, be it now a personalized one, and I may confer with you about TAs. I will live on in making myself useful in a progress-oriented drive and I will continue to lift the weight from Machiventa’s busy shoulders whenever I can.
“Every local universe has, or in time will have, at least one personalized Thought Adjuster by virtue of their each having companioned their Creator Son on His final bestowal as a creature born of woman on the world selected from the many of His making. So you see, serving the Sovereign has its rewards, yet be assured it is a tense time that tolerates not a single mistake.
“Indeed, my friend, the Supreme Adjuster — yes, always a Supreme Adjuster — deserving of companioning a Creator Son during His final bestowal must show an ancient, flawless past of multiple assists and rescues, an impeccable ‘present’ with the bestowal and a known and celebrated future in progress for his adopted world and the greater local universe, furthermore. By Those Who made the TA their choice for the Creator Son, all of his past, present and future is known. So be it. I shall flawlessly serve progress on your planet from this time on.
“For you there are important decisions to make — important for your family, your business and for 11:11 Progress’ future — get to it and do well.
“I am the Scribe, who loves you.”
