Teacher Ophelius.
Subject: “Spiritual Growth and Progress.” (Part 1).
Received by Chris.
Ophelius: “The message for today and in the coming weeks is about spiritual growth and progress. What must one do to grow spiritually and become more aware of spirit presence? There are many ways in which to grow, my friends, and life lessons are certainly a big part of that growth, but many of you students on the path are asking for guidance on how to accelerate spiritual growth and awareness. There is a way to optimize your time and accelerate your growth if you are willing to discipline yourself and to do the work necessary to bring about the understanding of self and the rudiments of cosmic purpose—ascension. We begin with this first part of an extended lesson of questions and answers:
“Who am I, and why am I here? We must begin to answer the most basic questions so that you can understand yourself and your purpose, for without this basic understanding, growth is limited. You are here on this planet, at this particular time, for several purposes. The primary purpose, in which all people share, is that you are created as a unique aspect of the Creator’s Will in time-space – unique by your personality, which was given to you at birth, and unique in how you will experience life. You, personally, as an individual, are known and registered in the awareness of the Most High as an ascending son or daughter and are therefore offered the gift of eternal life – to continue the grand adventure from imperfection to god-like perfection.
“You are a vessel for the divine expression and you are the ‘instruments’ for gathering unique experiences that will be shared directly with the Supreme Being – the emerging deity of the time-space universes, and indirectly, but instantaneously, with the Universal Father, the First Source and Center, the Father of personality, outside of time at the center of infinity. The Creator is exploring Himself in His time-space creation through all of you His experiential children. You are the eyes, ears, hands, and feet of the Creator – the sensors, the explorers. You are a part of Him, and He is calling all of the time-space evolutionary universes and every sentient being in it from a finite beginning state of imperfection to an eternal state of godlike perfection. This, in its most rudimentary form, is who you are and why you are here (primary purpose).
“How does the Creator experience life through me? On your planet, all children near the age of six years, having made their first moral decision, are indwelled with an undiluted fragment of the Creator that lives within their mind and becomes the monitor, guide, harvester of experiences, and the direct link to the Creator, for which they (you) have bi-directional 24-7 hour access. Some call this pre-personal fragment by many names: The Higher-self, the Over-soul, the Indwelling Spirit, the Father’s Presence, Thought Adjuster (TA), Mystery Monitor, the Atman, and others. Through this agency, the Creator lives in you, and through you. You, on the other hand, live, move, and have your being in Him. You are given identity and total autonomy – free will that you may experience the creation in any way you choose.
“Developing your awareness of this Indwelling Spirit – God Fragment (TA) – is the key to all perfection attainment, spiritual growth, and forward progression. Exploring this personal relationship (awareness) with your Thought Adjuster (TA) will be the focus for you students on the path in the next lesson.
“Peace to you,
“The Circle of Seven.”

Teacher Prolotheos.
Subject: “The Presence of Evil.”
Received by Valdir Soares.
Prolotheos: “The presence of evil in God’s creation can be disturbing to the human mind, unable to fully comprehend the overall plan of the Gods. Evil is a by-product of free will granted to finite creatures in the evolutionary realms. Evil, as opposed to the values of Truth, Goodness and Beauty, entails the notion of a non-value phenomenon and, as such, is condemned to fade away as the universes of time and space progress to their eternal and glorious destinies according to the will of God. Due to the harm, delays and handicaps that evil causes to spiritual progress, human beings ought to know its nature, its means and consequences in order to avoid its occurrence in your lives.
“The existence of evil should not be blamed on the Gods. When Personality was given to beings that were created in the perfect and eternal realms of Paradise and Havona, their existence was likewise perfect. However, when the creatures that emerged from the evolutionary process were awarded the same gift of Personality, their existence was comparatively imperfect, and subject to time-space processes in reaching a perfected state. This temporal imperfection brings along the possibility of evil. The Gods could not create real personal beings without giving them authentic free will, even if this meant to allow for the possibility of evil within a limited scope. Proof that evil is in fact a possibility, not an innate condition, is found on Urantia in the perfect and evil-free life exhibited by Jesus of Nazareth as the incarnation of our sovereign Creator Son, Michael of Nebadon.
“Evil cannot manifest apart from evil intent; therefore, only will-endowed creatures, like human beings, can practice genuine evil. Evil intent is a misguided decision of authentic free will under imperfect conditions. Choosing to not be part of the eternal God’s plan is not evil in itself, but the prerogative of creatures with free will. To rebel against God’s will, however, is evil in intent. Your Creator Son said, when on Urantia, ‘Who is not with me, is against me’. Evil is not only doing what is bad and harmful, but it is also a refusal to do what is good and beneficial.
“The results of evil are destruction, disruption, wars, and many other consequences of doing such intentional harm to God’s creation and creatures. Evil, if left to itself, will destroy even the evildoer; because evil is destructive by nature, it cannot help but promote complete destruction. Since evil is the result of misguided free-will, its containment and restraint comes through the unstoppable advance of the plans of God through His decrees and by the exercise of His will by his Associate Deities, His Sons and Daughters, the creatures of the Master Universe. Evil, therefore, is real, active and powerful. Fortunately, it is not eternal as are Truth, Goodness and Beauty. There will come a time when evil will cease to exist. I am Prolotheos, your celestial tutor and teacher. Peace to all.”

Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “The Moment of Fusion.”
Received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “At the moment of fusion, your mind and the mind of your Thought Adjuster will be one. The ways of thinking will be in such harmony that it will not be possible to determine where the human mind ends and where the divine mind begins. From that moment on, you will not converse with your Thought Adjuster as if He was another person, as you do today. However, His wisdom and His guidance will be forever a part of your being, and His experiences will be available to you in the same way you presently remember the moments of your childhood.
“The mission of your Thought Adjuster at this time in your life is to elevate your thoughts to the level of spirit. At first it may be like a correction, but with time and depending on the degree of freedom you give Him – allowing for His will to be done – your thoughts will become more spiritual. The goal is that your mind will become incapable of producing even ‘a shadow of sin’, and that this will have become a habit so your Thought Adjuster will be able to attest that ‘this is my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased’.
“As you may guess, this is not a change brought on in just a couple of minutes each day. It is achieved by a moment to moment process. It is realized by living in the present. It requires that you be attentive of the things you create in your mind and learn to identify the input of your Thought Adjuster to help you validate your creations. Think about the way you learn something in school. At first you encounter a new situation and you must discover how to resolve this problem in books. In time and with experience you no longer need a manual and you remember the solutions you have learned in the past. Later, even when new situations arise, you can extrapolate original solutions based on your experience. Then, what you have learned becomes a part of you, and that which previously took many minutes or hours, you can now automatically resolve in just a few seconds. The same will apply with the development of your spiritual mind.
“Michael became a Master in identifying the will of His Father through His Thought Adjuster. He achieved this by getting to know His Father which in turn helped Him to know how to proceed in many situations during His life. However, when the problems became too complex, or when His soul needed some rest, He always spent time away from others in close communion with his Father. Likewise, during your life you will need to dedicate formal periods to meditation and adoration, but these activities will increasingly become a delight for your spirit as you learn more about your Father.”

Monjoronson.
Subject: “The Game Of Life.”
Received by Helen Whitworth.
Monjoronson: “When you are born into this world, you find yourself naked and alone, and divorced from all you know and comprehend. The journey of your life is to piece together that from which you came, that which you are, and that which you will become.
“There are veils around you in all ways, forging a barrier between you and your true Divine Self, between you and your colleagues, and between you and your own sense of the reality that sits beneath that which you perceive; yet with care, effort and love within your heart, you start to chip away at those veils to discover yourself and the wondrous entities that share their worlds with you, forging the veil into a new structure, no longer a barrier, but a device to allow you the wonder of experience life fully on earth.
“Do not be distressed by your apparent separation from that which you feel as home, but instead delight in the glory of all that is on Earth, which you are unable to experience in any other place within this universe. If you saw already what the true nature of reality was then you would be stripped of the wondrous motion towards perfection and of the childlike delight formed when discovering that which is new to your perceptions.
“Think of this life as a game, a game in which there are no losers and many, many different paths to the final stage. It’s a game of exploration, of fun, of joy and of sorrow, and like all good games it would not be exciting without fear, apprehension and anxiety at times.
“These moments help to stand you in good stead for a future as Divine Being, to empathize and understand those still encompassed within the lowest planes of the ascendant mortals.
“Know every move has been calculated and its potential assessed, though it remains your own will, which dictates which potential is followed. We delight in progressing our paths alongside you, watching the way you tackle emergency and trauma, and comforting you when it all becomes too much.
“Know that your efforts, always valiant, are noted and recorded, and when the time comes to look back on your lessons you will often see that those which form the greatest part of your ‘learnings’ are the ones that passed unnoticed within your own times.
“In all that you are, and all that you can be, you are perfected beings finding the way of will in a world of dichotomy and inconsistency. Each turn you take is a marvel and part of God’s plan to experience how life becomes itself when separated from all that it already knows.
“Feed from the light of the sun, find sustenance in your communion with others, and look to the heavens for inspiration and fortitude. We are by your side and we will never leave you until your journey on this plane is through.
“By the morning, all will be clear.”

Teacher Prolotheos.
Subject: “Critical Thinking.”
Received by Valdir Soares.
Teacher Prolotheos: “It is correct to say that every thought expressed by someone is meant to change reality. No one is neutral. My very words to you right now are meant to change reality in you and around you, hopefully for the best. Thoughts are the designs of actions that change the world. Therefore, if people are able to tell you what you should think, their words can make you an instrument of change, for good or for bad.
“Since humans are going to be adjudicated according to their actions, which reflect their thoughts and decisions, you should make sure that your thoughts are of the best kind, because you will be accountable for the actions these thoughts produce. You need to understand how you make decisions. You mostly come to making decisions by establishing ‘paradigms’. Thankfully, you do not need to think about every single problem you will face. When you solve a problem once, that solution registers in your memory as a paradigm that will help you to decide similarly in other comparable situations. However, depending on your personality development, these paradigms need adjustments to fall in line with new knowledge and experiences you may have acquired about these problems, every time, without fail.
“Additionally, it will occasionally appear to you that an existential or moral problem requires a solution with a new approach in thinking, hopefully to establish a new paradigm for a new kind of problem. To solve a new problem you need to resort to all related knowledge immediately available to you, and sometimes go in search of more data. That is when you face other people’s opinions, and have to weigh them up to make your own decision. You weigh their source if it is reputable, the content if it makes sense, and the consequences if applied to your situation. Here, in searching out other people’s thoughts, it so happens that people usually fail to realize an important ready resource within themselves, the Spirit Within.
“The Spirit Within, also known as the Thought Adjuster, is an entity quite distinct from your soul, mind or personality. It is a Fragment of the Father sent to inhabit you, and assist you in making decisions according to the Will of God. The Spirit Within does not push its thoughts into your mind to erase or replace your own thoughts. It rather strives to ‘inspire’ you with new thoughts or paradigms that lead you to decide in favour of the Will of God. The Spirit Within will never coerce you, or violate your free will.
“You need other people’s thoughts and experience to help you with your problem solving, thus using their input with forethought and consideration is a good call. However, when making decisions, do always listen to that small and gentle ‘voice within’. It will always guide you according to what is true, good and beautiful. The Spirit Within is the best resource for your critical thinking, so listen attentively to your heavenly Guide, and your decisions, even if less than perfect will be the best for the occasion and circumstances. This is Prolotheos, your teacher and tutor on high. Peace to all!”
