Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Reasons”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “What are the reasons why a human being decides to do anything? I am referring to the projects and plans that many create for their lives. In most cases, the primary motivators of human endeavors are the pursuit of pleasure and the instinct for preservation. Many work to survive because that is what they must do to earn the money that ensures the satisfaction of their basic needs.
The pursuit of pleasure is one of the great evolutionary motivators of humans. Once basic needs have been met, a person feels the urge to improve their situation, creating more comfort, more security, or achieving recognition from their peers. This is another powerful reason to undertake a new task. Here we find those who seek a reward for their ego through the things they do.
The desire to obtain a reward is not in itself something negative. The problem arises when the chosen rewards are of inferior quality and drag the person toward materialism, distancing them from their true nature. It’s not so much the type of reward but the motivation of the individual. Consider, for example, a person who wants to earn more money to boast about their success to others, while another person also wants to earn more money to finance a project that can bring benefits to many. The reward in this example is the same—more money. However, the motivations of the two individuals are very different. The first will lead that person to become more materialistic, while the second will achieve spiritual progress for that person by thinking not only of themselves.
It is also appropriate for humans to obtain a fair reward for their creative efforts. The key lies in the word ‘fair.’ Every product of human creativity should be a benefit to all, as human beings owe much of their creativity to their environment and the people around them. It is appropriate to receive material rewards for the distribution of your creations, but it is not appropriate to use your creativity to take advantage of others.
But the greatest reward a human being can aspire to is the achievement of perfection, reaching a level of spiritual progress where you have become like God himself. This is the supreme ambition of mortals, and if you keep this goal always in mind, you will live a truly successful life, full of spiritual rewards with eternal values that will accompany you for the rest of your endless life in service throughout the vast universe.”

Teacher: The Beloved.
Subject: “Safe in the Citadel of Your Spirit.”
Received by Lytske.
The Beloved: “To have My words filter from your mind into your thoughts without any contamination on your part, is no small feat, and indeed this is the ultimate victory in trust and faith. Even though you are still reluctant at times to proceed, wondering what is to come next, you keep mustering the courage to keep writing in your journal. This courage is born from a deep soul hunger because you perceive there is so much more to realize and understand. So, you keep coming for more, never knowing what I will impart to you next.
Look at it this way you are in the training camp for the spiritual Olympics. This is in truth the game of life. You, having dimly understood what this means, are turning up faithfully to obtain the instructions for the day, which help you train in overcoming the hurdles of negative thoughts and emotions, and you have already been sensing that your mind is becoming clearer, because of this training you have embarked upon.
The next level in this training is now your growing understanding that you need to curb your impatience and hastiness, keeping those self-recrimination pitfalls at bay that cause you unhappiness within yourself. The road of self-correction is not often willingly undertaken and yet it is a most necessary one if you do not want the weeds of negativity and unnecessary emotional upsets to strangle the tranquil garden of your soul. The soil in your soul can be carefully cultivated by practicing faith and trust in the almighty over-care of the Creator God.
If you are disturbed by the conditions in the world today, know that by remaining positive, the emanations of your radiance also stay positive. It is through the understanding that calmness grows from coming within to Me in the Stillness of your heart, that you can become a steadfast beacon of love, light, healing, and hope in the world because you are safe in the citadel of your spirit.
The world will change one person at a time, when all start practicing for the spiritual Olympics and cultivate the willingness to work on honest and sincere self-correction in all areas of life and in this manner grow a healthy soul, which is abundantly nurtured in this process.”

Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “The Sublime Sound of Silence.”
Message received by Anyas.
Thought Adjuster: “Oh, my little one! You make me so happy as you engage in the most natural conversation of all — listening to the input of My still small voice. Yes, I am never distant from you, and neither do I wish to be, as my deepest longing is for oneness with you.
I know that you too long for that sublime state of harmony with Me. Persevere in your stillness practice, as it is the only way for our minds to fall in step with one another. By stilling your mind, you make room for My voice to resonate in it even though it is silent.
Silent is the keyword here, as it speaks volumes when undisturbed. Take time to ponder this most profound truth. As well, silence recharges your often frazzled nerves. It soothes your entire being without ever being intrusive. You see, you are the one sending it a heartfelt invitation — one that cannot be turned down. It is My cue to expand My presence in your mind, permeating all the layers of your being.
Indeed, when you still your soul, the Lord is over you. Divine energy blends with the sublime sound of silence. Listen!”

Midwayer Chief Bzutu (ABC-22).
Subject: “What Constitutes a Dispensation.”
Received by George Barnard.
Bzutu: “I am here, a Midwayer Chief, vastly under-utilized by a friend of some 70 years. This is ABC-22, cordially invited here to lecture about dispensations. Take our dictation now.
“What is a dispensation? A dispensation — in the spiritual sense — is a period of time during which certain celestial rules do or do not apply, or they simply vary. These rules, for example, may be of a progressive nature in that many sleeping survivors may be awakened to commence their Mansion world careers. The lengthy isolation, initiated because of the Lucifer Rebellion, was very limiting. Communication lines were cut. The planet was isolated. The spiritual economy of Urantia was in a deep depression and sinking further.
“Fortunately, such dreaded system-wide periods are rare. The more regular, positive dispensations, so we are taught, tend to include just one or two new regulations that award citizens for the progress they have made as a world population, and these dispensations can last for centuries. Here I need to make clear that a dispensation might only apply to one or a few individuals — and for a short time. The present dispensation, however, is a very special one. Call it the Dispensation of the Correcting Time. It is much a departure from the normal.
“The dispensation’s important trigger was the approaching adjudication of the Lucifer Rebellion, but long before that the rehabilitation of rebel midwayers and angels had begun. As well, the incarnation of a Magisterial Son had been planned and yet this event is still some time off. Can you see where I’m going with this? You can! There is no particular date or time at which this unique and special dispensation was either begun or will be completely established, as you may call the process of its being fully realized.
“Consider now the decades-long preparations of the celestial Teachers and the fact that the Paradise citizen, Monjoronson, has not yet appeared. This Correcting Time dispensation, whose beginning is now stretched out for over more than 200 years is coming together like the “whatever-it-takes” mandate Michael decided it would be and as the Father Creator endorsed it. The Lucifer Rebellion adjudication finally out of the way, the long-neglected planet Urantia had to be rescued, whatever effort it would take.
“You saw the influx of thousands of “alien” midwayers, spiritual groups such as the Teaching Mission, as well as your own 11:11 Progress group. You witnessed the publication of the Urantia Papers, their contents worked on for many decades and you witnessed the celebration of Machiventa’s promotion to Urantia Planetary Prince in his very own right, succeeding the Creator Son Himself. And even now, I assure you, the individual dispensations are not all done. More decisions will be made to turn the Correcting Time into a success.
“Whatever it takes, our human friend, it will surely be given to our unusual world until Correcting Time gains will have readied us all to make this a shiny new place of Light and Life.
“This is Bzutu and Sharmon leaving you both our love. Goodnight.”

Teacher Ophelius.
Subject: “The Tests of Time.”
Received by Chris Maurus.
Ophelius: “Today we would like to speak about the “Tests of Time” — those situations where you find you must act or make a decision that will move you into a new space — a new life — a new way of being in the world. It’s as if you are being tested to see how you will choose and how you will act and hold yourself faced with a major change. My dear friends, these tests are real and they are “spiritually engineered” to “nudge” you onto a path that will move you in a near parallel with the divine plan for your life. Your Thought Adjuster (TA) and your Guardian Seraphim work in a coordinated way to bring opportunities and serendipitous situations into your life to help you grow and at the same time move you along the path of the divine plan.
“You, of course, can choose and act, or not act, in any way you decide because you have free will. Your TA “brings” the Father’s Will and your Guardian Seraphim “knows” the Father’s will and therefore will they bring these tests to you in various forms to teach and to examine the progress you are making in your short lives. Your stubbornness to avoid decisions and change will have a direct effect on the way your lessons will be presented.
“Your Guardian Seraphim (a pair) has an intimate and shared destiny with you and it is her job to see that your soul survives beyond this life and into eternity and that you eventually fuse with your TA. She is held accountable for your survivability and therefore will she do and “engineer” what is allowed by those high spirit authorities to move you into a place where you may grow and achieve the “Great Prize” — life eternal. Your TA chose you before your birth to be the personality and vessel of fusion. None are guaranteed because of free will and therefore do these “Tests of Time” become the tools for ensuring your survival.
“These tests come at you in various forms and in varying degrees of potential change throughout your life. Most of them you do not take notice of, yet those tests that bring major change can be acknowledged and you may become aware that you are about to grow by making a decision or accepting the circumstance of a not so seemingly desirous situation, that by faith, you hold as having ultimate value in the overall outcome of your life. When you notice these “soul-markers” in your life path, it can be sometimes fearful, yet to hold the growth potential in faith that all will be made right and will ultimately benefit your soul, is to be wise and spiritually powerful.
“When you recognize the test or the coming change, leverage all the spiritual resources you can through prayer, by asking questions and working through the decisions of time with your Spiritual Sponsors — your TA, guides, and guardians. You are never alone, my friends, we (spirit) — your unseen family are always with you and will help you through the transition. Know that your Heavenly Father knows what is best for you because it is what is best for all in the Great Plan and so will He bring you through the Tests of Time to a higher place of understanding. Never are you to be “punished” for any decision you make. You are only lovingly guided by the superlative methods available according to your willingness to do the Father’s will. The farther you are away from the divine plan, the more “work” has to be done by you to get back “on track.” Once you are “on track” your life will blossom and you will come into your purpose and really begin to live and enjoy the truth, beauty, and goodness of being alive and a willing participant in the Creation here and hereafter.
“Peace to you,
“The Circle of Seven.”
