Teacher Prolotheos.
Subject: “Evolutionary Religion”
Message received by Valdir Soares.
Prolotheos: “Religion, defined in terms of evolution, came into existence together with the primates’ attainment of personality will. Will came to human beings concomitantly with the function of the last two Adjutant Mind Spirits, wisdom and worship. And being the last, they opened way for the appearance of religion in human life. Religion is the capacity to believe in the transcendental, even if the object of this belief is not accurate. Exercising this new faculty, which may be called faith, makes man a religious being. Today we are going to study the manifestation of religion in human life. Here are its major aspects:
“Institutional Religion: Here, religion becomes an organization, reaching social and political arenas. It not only regulates religion, but also social life and politics, becoming even a state religion, as was the Imperial Roman religion and its successor, the Roman Catholic Church of today — the Vatican State. Religion, then, is a means to control and it has little to do with real faith and devotion. It occupies itself with creeds, written confessions, dogmas, encyclicals, and more. Institutional religion is a scaffolding necessity in human development, but the day will come when ‘you won’t worship God neither in Jerusalem nor Gerasim, but in Spirit and Truth.’
“Ceremonial Religion: Ritual in religion serves to compensate for lack of spirituality, to uniform and control people — usually by a priestly hierarchy. Evolutionary religion inherited its rituals from the ghost cults. The living feared the dead, molding their lifestyle by copying their lives and ritualizing them. Ceremonial religion tends to become meaningless when the ritual is performed for its own sake, without spiritual power. Ceremonial religion sometimes becomes a misguided religious duty the religionist believes to be owing to Deity as an offering, usually in trying not incur its wrath. Little or no spirituality can be manifested through stylized religious rituals.
“Personal Religion. Worship is the highest form of personal religion, but petitions, gratitude, intercessory prayers also can express real spirituality, if they are not mere repetitions. Personal religion is by nature an enlightening religion; it promotes spiritual growth and spiritual sensitivity. However, personal religion can also become meaningless when the individual ‘overloads’ it with mysticism, fantasizing or fanatizing the faith, sometimes to the degree of delusion, paranoia. Religion then becomes a personal drug. Personal and authentic religion is what really counts in acquiring a spiritual status before God. Personal devotion is the only religion that the Spirit Within fosters in the human mind.
“So, my pupil, religion is so relevant to human beings that it requires the exercise of all human faculties — especially worship. Certainly it is the most important dimension in human beings because on it depends their eternal survival. Exercising religion with devotion, actual faith, but balancing it with all other fields of life prevents a life sterile of spirituality or a spirituality exacerbated by fanaticism. Religion is not a divinely manipulated function; rather, it is sponsored by the Spirit Within with revelations for man’s spiritual growth. I am Prolotheos, your Teacher on the morontia spheres of Nebadon. Peace be with all.”

Secondary Midwayer Dr. Mendoza (MNO-8).
Subject: “We Truly Are Many”
Received by George Barnard.
Dr. Mendoza: “Greetings all. Yes it is I, MNO-8. There was so much for you to take in on that day (February 4 — The Evolving Souls Community transmissions), we all kept it short as we knew you would be exhausted by the end. So here now we can take our time to chat about what is happening in our realm. Not only have our Secondary Midwayer numbers increased more than 70-fold, many of the newcomers have discovered different methods of healing their mortal kin’s bodies and psyches.
“Admittedly, the human species on other planets and moons may well be vastly different to your average physiological and psychological makeup, but still many healing methods are effective all over Nebadon — yes even Orvonton. And we learn from our alien colleagues as they likewise learn from us. And even though they are finished with their careers on their home worlds, they remain interested in case they will be both permitted and duly motivated, to repeat their pilgrimage to yet other troubled worlds in the sector.
“I give it to you that even in the best of circumstances mortal life is quite demanding — extremely demanding some will say — and former humans thus may live on with the lasting innate desire to be Paradise-bound. Understandable, indeed. For those created in space-time and inevitably almost totally task-oriented in their love for the Father of us all, it is hardly surprising they wish to do more. Nevertheless, we applaud our alien Midwayer assistants for trying to shorten our over-lengthy stay on Urantia.
“Obviously, my friends, Angels, Midwayers and all other Celestials are not as time-conscious and time-driven as are mortals. And their love of the Father can have them spend ages in space-time on some worthwhile task or other. And whilst such an attitude and self-constraint is rather unusual for former mortals, still, there are thousands upon thousands of once-human Teachers available — many of whom were physicians, eager to let their healing ways be known.
“Already have some of you experienced healing moves by our Guests Midwayers. I will leave it to this receiver to explain what some members of the 11:11 Progress Group have experienced. The use of immune system boosts with the use of precious metal nano-particles that are readily absorbed into the bloodstream to then target disease, have far wider healing possibilities than you can imagine. On this score, our Guests remain in touch with those former alchemists who once taught them about the methods and the remarkable results.
“This is your friend and colleague Dr. Mendoza, hoping we can all work closer together through adequate communication and thanking you personally for staying with me in this exercise. I’m leaving you all my love. Contemplate now the healing experiences.”
George: “Thank you, doc. Will do.”
Notes: Midwayers were always capable of reaching into our bodies and setting things right. Lately some of us have experienced sudden electrical or energy charges, mostly into the right leg. At least one of us experiences a mild presure on the nose and cheeks. We know it is mostly Mathew doing that, or perhaps it is one of his tribe.

I Wonder Why I Told You That.
From the desk of George Barnard – March 3, 2009.
Back in the early 1970’s when I was still running my company, the Midwayers decided that I had done enough hands-on healing with animals, and the occasional human patient. It was time for me to do some distance healing, and they set about educating me. Many healings would follow this one.
Young Mark Brady was a close friend of my family and workers. He was also a sales representative for a company we did much business with. Mark would call on my firm, make a bee-line for the coffee machine, and return to my workroom with steaming cups for both of us, before taking his orders. Between visits, I telephoned him at his office to order what we needed from his firm.
On one occasion after placing my telephone orders, Mark said, ‘My grandmother, who is sixty-eight, and who lives in Croydon, has a huge cancer in her stomach. Her name is Agnes, and she’s very sick, George.’ There was a lengthy silence, and then he said, ‘Gosh! I wonder why I told you all that!’ My equally strange response to him was, ‘Don’t worry about it. It happens all the time.’
Wrong! It didn’t happen all the time! It had never yet happened!
Somehow that answer was good enough for Mark. I took that happening to be an instruction, and during that evening’s meditation I found myself in Croydon, some 30 miles away, and in the company of Dr. Mendoza. We were standing next to Mrs. Brady’s bed. There was a growth in her belly the size of a small football. I looked at the doctor, but he wasn’t going to do anything, it seemed.
So I reached into her belly, and I pulled out that growth. I threw it clear out of her room. In the next moment, time had changed. Time had ‘rolled forward’ by three whole days, and Agnes Brady was sitting up in bed, munching away at her dinner.
A week later, a call from Mark confirmed that ‘a miracle had happened,’ and Mrs. Brady’s cancer had disappeared completely. Mark said, ‘I kind of feel obliged to tell you this. I don’t know why.’
I told him, ‘It’s good, Mark. That’s fine. It happens all the time.’ Well, from that time on at least it did keep happening.
Important note:
There is nothing strange or special about the healing of Agnes Brady so long ago. Just about anyone alive and believing is capable of performing this ‘minor miracle.’ Whatever you will change in the ‘Astral World’ will sooner or later be reflected into this world.

One Without Name Without Number.
Subject: “An Invitation” (quite abbreviated).
Received by George Barnard.
One Without Name Without Number: “Thank you Dr. Mendoza, and please ‘stay on the line’.
“My dear human friend, so very long ago I too wondered what it would be like to be in a place where my feet could rest on solid matter (Paradise), and where time as I knew it would not exist. The concept of a timeless eternity was only partially within my capacity to imagine. It is correct for me to say that I am in this place, and yet it is incorrect for me to give you a length of time since my arrival. I am here now, and it is always ‘now’, yet I progress. Consider this.
“Consider now a human child just four months old throwing a toy out of its cot. You pick it up and return it to the child, but to him or her it is a brand new toy. ‘The other toy’, when no longer seen, did, and logically so, actually ceased to exist to the child’s mind. Only the exercise of countless disappearances and ensuing re-appearances will eventually prove to the child that there is continuation, and that the toy was never lost. It was simply unseen.
“Your game of peek-a-boo can become an eye-opener for those newly born in time-space. However, for those created on Paradise, it is a challenge to comprehend not so much the reality of time, but the lag in time between the sequences of events. They who have not yet experienced time-space, and they are myriad, may well understand cause and effect, but fail to grasp a lag of time in ‘strings of sequential events’. As the saying goes, ‘You had to be there.’
“Experiencing time by actually residing in time-space dimensions – and, naturally, serving the Father whilst there – is one of the dearest wishes of paradise creatures, and already they can observe events in time-space, but cause and effect are one, instantaneously. You too are capable of seeing events of the future, but you do so in cooperation with your indwelling Spirit Self, and on occasions you might do so in sponsored (aided) dreams.
“Much more difficult is it for you to in any way realize, comprehend, or ‘mentally touch on’ the concept of eternity – to dwell within an unending realm where time does not exist. Here the new spiritual being that is you will feel your very existence to be ‘marinated’ with an all-pervading happiness, a joy so difficult to describe, and here we will meet, the deeply committed friends that we are, and all those you wish to bring along, and we shall re-affirm our love for each other.
“Here in this timeless realm and with those of my order surrounding you, you shall slake your most ravenous thirst for knowledge, fulfill your greediest need for companionship, realize your greatest desire for sharing all that you entail, and gather the energy and drive to forward-plan your return to time space as a contributor in your fields of endless expertise. I am One Without Name, Without Number. May our love always reach across space and time, yes all ways to eternity.”
George: “We will surely meet in person. Au revoir, my Friend.”
Notes: To ‘shake hands’ with One Without Name, Without Number is to know all about him. That is why they need no name or number. You will know them totally. To communicate with him is to see an avalanche of events go by.

Urantia, February 22, 2015.
Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Accessing Higher Learning.”
Received by Lytske.
Thought Adjuster: “Once again, here is a useful little lesson for those who are willing to listen and learn. Incredibly, much is hidden from the human persona but it can be accessed by the mind when one pays close attention during meditation. Attention with thorough focusing is all that is required, although it often is very difficult to maintain for a great length of time. Let me be clear about this: such focused attention is usually a learned skill and it does not happen overnight, although some humans are genetically more suited to careful listening and acquiring this habit when very young. Early training by significant others has a great deal to do with this. But sad to say, humans seem to be getting busier and more stressed out, so the education of their precious young ones suffers.
“By educating the young I mean that this needs to be a loving and personal interaction, not some mechanical means by which kids can sit motionless and soak their little mind with subjects of little value, which is a very subtle way of mind control. Most everyone knows or ought to know what I am speaking about. It is extremely important that children learn to develop their sensitive and inventive minds with very simple things so they get a feeling of accomplishment.
“Feelings of self-worth ought to be developed lest a child grows up feeling inadequate about itself, which leaves it open to psychic shocks of many kinds, radiating through the brain to the body with negative results. Many traumas and ills can be avoided when at a young age a child learns to live joyfully, mindfully and optimistically. The golden rule ought to be impressed upon every young one’s mind. In this way it becomes a way of life, rather than the child growing up with a lot of criticism creating a negative way of life. Raising your young ones on this planet is the noblest and most important task in each human’s lifetime, for these children are the future citizens of this planet.
“Look around you and note the present situation. When and where will you all begin to ‘clean up’ to raise the planet’s vibration? I dare say that it all begins with loving relationships with respect for each other, regardless of the country, color, age group, gender or religion. All paths lead to the Universal Creator; they all belong to the Maker and they are all His children, whatever name they call Him. This matters only to the caller. All peoples on this planet have an inalienable right to address their Maker by whatever name and sit in silent communion to access higher learning to get insights, to feel God’s unconditional love for them and to learn to do God’s will.
“When adopting this habit of daily periods of higher learning in communion with their Maker, their souls have a chance to flourish to their fullest potential beginning in this foundational earth life, whilst their minds experience a deep sense of peace, never mind what tumult is raging about. This is to personally learn to be an island of peace amidst the storms of life.”
