Subject: “The Act of Listening with the Ear of Spirit”
Message received by Anyas.
“Jesus replied: “Thomas, Thomas, how long before you will acquire the ability to listen with the ear of the spirit?” [UB, 142:7.17]
Thought Adjuster: “By definition, listening is the ACT of paying attention to sound, of hearing something with thoughtful attention, of giving consideration and being alert.
Without realizing it, many are pretend listeners, as they are not fully engaged. They prematurely formulate repartees in their mind or interrupt the flow of their interlocutor’s message by interjecting their input. They are distracted listeners — not actively engaged.
When you confide in Me, I give you My undivided attention, thus facilitating your unhindered self-expression. If I interrupted you, it would make you feel unheard and frustrated — certainly not relieved and uplifted. I relish that you turn to Me for advice or to share your most intimate thoughts and feelings.
Likewise, practice being a godlike listener by allowing others to candidly vent what they need to release. Many are saved from imploding emotionally by being allowed to confide their inner turmoil to goodhearted and non-judgmental souls. From that perspective, your act of listening is also a gift and a loving service.
Moreover, by listening, you glean valuable information. It yields spiritual credits in your life. Once your counterpart is done confiding in you, it will be your turn to speak IF solicited.”

Subject: “Give Pause and Let Your Light Shine.”
Received by Chris.
Ophelius: “Today we would like to speak to you about raising your vibration and tuning into the Will of the Father. Many of you feel discouraged and isolated because you struggle to ‘hear’ the voice of the Indwelling Spirit that lives within, but there is a way in which you can prepare yourself to ‘feel’ this Higher Power within, and that is to raise the frequency of your thoughts. This can be achieved through a process of conscious monitoring of your thoughts and a regular practice where you set your intention on thoughts of higher vibration and healthy emotions.
“We often hear that many of you students on the path fail to achieve stillness – that your minds simply will not quiet down – that there are constant streams of thought and chatter that prevents you from achieving stillness. I now challenge all of you who struggle with ‘busy minds’ to prepare your mind for stillness by conditioning your thoughts and raising your vibration. Let us first ‘till the soil’ before we ‘plant the seeds.’
“For one week, try to monitor your thoughts and eliminate or change the direction of all negative thoughts or emotions that come into your mind and go out from your mouth or in written form. Do not feel discouraged if you fail, and speak or act in a negative way, but become aware that you have allowed this lower vibrational energy to pass through you. Change the direction of that thought now and ‘counteract’ it with a higher vibrational thought or emotion. Ask a friend to help you identify your weaknesses and negative thoughts and challenge each other to change the direction of those thoughts.
“It is helpful to ‘pause’ and adjust your thought before you react and speak as you go about your day interacting with others. It is in this ‘pause’ that you can change the direction of your thoughts like flipping a switch. See the switch in your mind and imagine the aura of your energy changing to a lighter color when you think and feel positive loving thoughts. If you fail and fall back into negativity, imagine the brightness of your energy fade and then adjust your thoughts and see it brighten again to a healthy hue.
“You see, my friends, when you give ‘pause’, you ‘allow’ the Indwelling Spirit a chance to help you through suggestions and options on how to think and feel about a particular situation, event, or circumstance. By allowing this space, you are in essence saying, ‘Father, let your Will be done.’ When you do this, your spiritual vibration is elevated to allow the Father’s Will to pass through you and into the world. Many of you do this unknowingly and this is how love and light is transmuted from the Parent to the child.
“With each pause, decision, and action you make to allow this conscious process of changing the direction of your thoughts, your souls are fed by the Father and you become more like Him moment to moment, day by day. By practicing this method of changing your thoughts (raising your vibration), you shall soon be ready to sit in the stillness with a peaceful mind and connect with the highest frequency in creation – the Father of all there is.
“Peace to you,
“The Circle of Seven.”

Subject: “Essential Needs to Spiritual Survival.”
Received by Valdir Soares.
Prolotheos: “Strangely, in your world people generally do not assign the same importance to their spiritual life as they do to their physical life. Everybody knows that physical bodies on Urantia cannot survive without air, food, water, nourishment, rest and shelter. However, many are not aware of what constitutes the basics for their spiritual life, and some, unfortunately, do not even know they have a spiritual life. Your spiritual life, as well, has essential needs, without which it cannot exist or continue to exist. At this time of communication, let us review the essential needs for spiritual survival.
“First and foremost, genuine faith is the initiator of spiritual life; it is your first spiritual manifestation. Faith in God starts as a wonder, which grows into hope, and matures into certainty. Faith is your mind’s correct response to the work of the adjutant mind spirit of worship, with the use of the capacity previously received from the spirit of wisdom. Your records correctly assert, ‘Without faith it is impossible to know God.’ All other human faculties are incapable of perceiving the reality of God, except faith.
“As important as it is, faith is not everything. Once you know God exists, you must realize He does not force anyone to do anything, nevertheless recognizing He deserves our obedience. Since the beginning of creation, the voice of the loving, eternal universal Father has echoed throughout the seven super-universes with His mandate for all: ‘Be you perfect, even as I am perfect.’ To you, human beings, universe ascendants, and descendants from low and animal origin, to achieve perfection through the experience of doing the will of God is the only technique available for becoming perfect in our dimension, as God is perfect in His dimension.
“Finally, although God expect you to follow His will, He does not force you to do so, as your loyalty to Him must be by free choice, out of love, not enforced by fear or any other constraint. You must want to continue on the divine path, until the time when you are fused with your Adjuster, when you will seal your deal, manifesting once and for all that it is your final decision to be like God, live with Him and for Him through all eternity. You must persevere on the path, until you become the path.
“Therefore my pupil, whatever you do, always keep in mind the essential needs to your spiritual survival, until the day you stand before His majestic presence on Paradise, when faith is no longer necessary, obedience was perfected through love, and all risks had vanished by the final embrace of the Gods. There, at the fulfilment of the ages, survival has made its complete circle; you have entered Eternity, and Eternity has entered you. I am Prolotheos, your tutor on high, always glad to help and guide you during these spiritual meditations. My love is with you and all.”

Subject: “The Spice of Life 2.”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “Learning is the spice of life. Those who learn the lessons that life presents to them are the ones who are willing to admit they may be wrong and don’t know it all. Those who are certain of their beliefs and ideas are the ones destined to repeat the same mistakes and go through the same situations, sometimes painfully, again and again.
I use the phrase ‘the spice of life’ because by learning, you are making your life more interesting, fulfilling, and purposeful. There is a reason for living a life in a material world, and the reason is that the experiences should stimulate your decision-making muscle in order to promote wisdom and spiritual growth. When you are willing to explore new situations with an open mind and consider all the defeats and victories of life as simply opportunities to learn, you are, in fact, starting to live up to your purpose.
Thus, you can realize that you are the one who decides how your life will be. Regardless of what happens around you, you can use everything that happens to you to foster your spiritual growth and achieve success in life. This success has nothing to do with the common human expectations of money and power. It is about living and becoming what your Father in heaven has envisioned for you, that is, finding and expressing the best version of yourself you aspire to be, emulating the attributes of the Father.
You can take control of your life by simply exerting control over your decisions and your aspirations. When one desires with a true heart to get to know the Creator better, all the faculties of your personality, your will, your desires, and your hopes will align toward this higher goal, and there will be no obstacles that offer any real resistance to the achievement of this goal. This is how your life becomes an adventure instead of a drudgery of routine. You can start seeing each day again as a child, full of hope and wonder, because each day will bring with it everything you may need to move one step closer to eternal life and to be ever more perfect, as your Father in heaven is perfect.”

Message received by Lytske.
The Beloved One: “Dear one, again I invite you to settle down in My Presence and experience the unconditional love I have for you.
“Truly, child, I accept you the way you are, including all your mistakes and your perceived sins of omission and commission. You are learning some astonishing lessons in life and no lasting harm is ever done, for sooner or later, yes, inevitably your lessons will be learned.
“This is the way the Universal Creator has ordained his mortal children should learn. How otherwise would you know the difference in your heart and soul?
“The understanding you are gaining brings to your life a treasured richness, which is uniquely yours. This is why all God’s children are different, for each one experiences life in his or her own way.
“Yes, all are reflections of the One. Therefore, see each and everyone as part of yourself, as ultimately each has their existence in the One.
“Oh, the richness of Creation!
“Ponder more often these, My sayings, and do this rather than mull over the past. The past has served you well in bringing you more decidedly into My presence.
“Rejoice, and be glad and trust the process we have begun.
