Thought Adjuster
Subject: “Forgiveness, Another Gateway to Godlikeness.”
Message received by Anyas.
Thought Adjuster: “Pride stands in the way of forgiveness. Many expect the ‘trespasser’ to take the first humbling step by apologizing. Could it come from a place of hurt ego — not from a place of radical forgiveness? It becomes denatured to a sort of barter: your pardon for an apology. You posture yourself as magnanimous, but you are condescending and calculating.
“Jesus portrayed conquest by sacrifice, the sacrifice of pride and selfishness. By showing mercy, he meant to portray spiritual deliverance from all grudges, grievances, anger, and the lust for selfish power and revenge.” [UB, 141:3.8]
Now, let us look at the GODLIKE way of genuine forgiveness, exemplified by Jesus on multiple occasions. It had nothing to do with the response of a fragile ego because he did not interpret the offenses inflicted upon him as injuries to his dignity. He assigned them to human ignorance, which validated the need for the salvation he came to provide.
He forgave on the spot — even when in agony on a wooden cross. It led the centurion who witnessed such noble and selfless behavior to smite his breast and say: “This was indeed a righteous man; truly he must have been a Son of God.” [UB, 187:5.5] This centurion became a living testimony of Jesus’ Godlikeness.
“The Father in heaven has forgiven you even before you have thought to ask him, but such forgiveness is not available in your personal religious experience until such a time as you forgive your fellow men. God’s forgiveness, in fact, is not conditioned upon your forgiving your fellows, but in experience it is exactly so conditioned. And this fact of the synchrony of divine and human forgiveness was thus recognized and linked together in the prayer which Jesus taught the apostles.” [UB, 146:2.4]
The Believer’s Prayer Jesus taught is worded to make it explicit that you have to forgive first to collect on the Father’s ever-extended forgiveness. “And forgive us every one our debts as we also have forgiven our debtors.” [UB: 143:3.9-10] This attitude brings you closer to other-centered Godlikeness where nothing is expected in return.”

Life Carrier Orion.
Subject: “Decimal Planets’ Explosive Potential”
Received by George Barnard.
Orion: “This is Orion. I greet all those present on this occasion of group meditation. We, your Life Carriers are not so big that we think ourselves to not derive benefits from exercising stillness with others — Midwayers, Angels, humans and our kin — instanter, close by or at great distances and all to the recognition and delight of our Father Creator. We will now reflect on evolution on a decimal world and I re-assure you that a Life Carrier’s comments are not always to be considered a guaranteed or complete answer to your hypotheses.
“Decimal worlds like worlds numbered 596, 606 and 616 and so on — all numbers ending with a 6, to be sure — are of great interest to many creatures and to Life Carriers more so than to most others. New non-decimal worlds are generally populated by us with suitable plants, animals and humans derived from established and promising worlds, similar in makeup to such new habitat. Consider this to be an enormously complex task with every opportunity for us to overlook any of thousands of chances for miscalculations.
“Decimal worlds are a different matter entirely, since here we have an opportunity to adjust the Mother-Spirit-enlivened products of our on-high laboratories. It would be inaccurate to say that the implantations we brought to this world had great potential, indeed, no, their potential might well be seen as ‘explosive’ so many varieties of plant and animal it produced. Take a worthwhile good look around on your world and you will see but a small percentage of what the life implantations produced. Much is hidden, yes, I agree.
“Many, many times more plants and creatures developed than what is present today. Some of them were so unlikely, so impractical, they could not possibly survive. Some of them so voracious, they might well make life impossible for the most promising of species. We stayed and cared for this ‘zoo’ by protecting most and encouraging some with the energy that is innate in us. We observed and in some instances utterly destroyed some species that could lay waste to our entire effort of millions of years.
“This now fully answers the question posed: The decimal planet life implants really do have almost infinite potential to give life to a vast range of species. Those species threatening all others and thereby the environment can be eliminated by us, even during the period when creature energy still promotes growth and diversification at a very high rate. However, at the time we note that a species may finally evolve into a creature that will at some time worship God and acquire wisdom, this super-high potential for all other species is tempered.
“This explains why some of my order have worked here for millions upon millions of years. A decimal planet is quite a task and indeed a university of learning where we often find species or product of good use elsewhere in Nebadon and beyond.
“This is your lone resident Life Carrier, Orion. Be well, my students. You are evolutionary creatures and whilst I may perhaps confirm your theories, I may not provide you with revelation. We leave you our love.”

Asheville, NC, US of A, June 21, 2015.
Teacher Ophelius.
Subject: “The Prayer of Understanding.”
Message received by Chris Maurus.
Teacher Ophelius: “Today I would like to lead you all in a prayer. Some of you may not be comfortable doing so or it is not something you are accustomed to doing. Or perhaps it brings up memories of childhood religious experiences that you were not particularly fond of. Others find great comfort and a fulfillment of peace and assurance by relinquishing the burdens of life to a “higher power.” Whatever the case may be, I am here to tell you that prayer is communication. It is considered to be a form of worship in the sense that the Creator’s children (you) acknowledge the parent/child relationship and therefore do you “have the ear” of the Creator. When the prayer connection is established through this form of communication, the faith muscle of the child is strengthened and the trust and bond of the child for the parent grows along with that faith.
“All of you are indwelt with a Fragment of the Creator, the Thought Adjuster, and it is through this Indwelling Spirit of the Creator that the connection is made — it is direct and there is no time lag because the Thought Adjusters exist outside of time, yet are they present in time with your mind mechanism. You are the farthest distance away from the Creator in relationship to your perfection status, yet are you the closest to the Creator — being host to this most precious and priceless fragment of the one and only Creator of all there is. How blessed are you, my friends?
“When you sincerely desire to connect with the Creator through prayer, your relationship with the Thought Adjuster (TA) becomes more personal and soon you will find you are conversing regularly with your TA about many things just as you would a close friend. This is where you want to be, my friends, in a close and personal relationship with your TA. Prayer is one mode of communication that helps build this intimate connection to the TA. I highly recommend it.
“Let us now relax our minds, our bodies, and focus on this personal connection with your TA as I lead you in a prayer. I will address the Creator as “Father” because of the parent/child relationship. You may insert any name or gender you wish here — the Creator does not care what He (or She) is called by his/her children, only that the relationship is acknowledged.
The Prayer: “Father, I am your child and I am here on this world to experience life in all its many degrees of contrast so that I may grow in understanding of your love for me and my siblings.”
“Life can be difficult here, Father, and sometimes understanding love is not so clear as I see such suffering in the world, yet I understand that this lack of understanding is the cause of suffering.”
“Please help me understand love at a higher level than what the world teaches me, Father. Help me see through the illusions of the ego and the false love of ownership, selfishness and control.”
“Show me the Truth, Beauty and Goodness that exists around me and help me let go of the pettiness of a wounded heart. Remind me that this life I have in this world is but the first heart beat in an endless life of god-like pursuits in the universes of time and beyond — that I will one day stand in your presence on Paradise and receive your embrace.”
“Help me hold this vision of god-like perfection and finality in my mind when I get caught up in the problems of life here in this world and remind me that these are lessons that will help me navigate the ascension in the worlds to come.”
“I love you, Father, and I feel your love for me in this quiet moment where we connect. I give to you all that I am, Father, and ask that you show me the better way to understanding higher love.”
“Amen (in agreement).”
“Peace to you,
“The Circle of Seven.”

Alabama, US of A, August 8, 2014.
Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Helping Others.”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “Helping others is a very broad area. In your daily work, you help others who benefit from the things you produce. It is appropriate for human beings to seek better ways to earn a living, so that they can meet their material needs as well as their spiritual needs to express love for their fellow beings and exercise their creative faculties—for after all, when a human being uses their mind to create—things that are positive and beneficial for themselves and others—that is when they most resemble God.
You can help others more effectively meet their own material or spiritual needs. You can help them live a more stimulating life, rich in experiences. You can help them by sharing the light you carry within. You can help them by teaching them a trade. You can help in many ways. However, beware of negative help. When you solve problems that each person should solve for themselves, when you take away the opportunity for them to learn from the lessons life offers, when you prevent them from facing the consequences of their thoughtless decisions, when you ‘give them a fish instead of teaching them how to fish,’ you are not truly helping anyone. Instead, you are fostering their dependency and their lack of original thinking.
Give more freedom to your imagination. That is where your creativity resides. Many times, you repress your dreams by imposing false limits on them. In truth, dreaming costs nothing—unless your dreams prevent you from facing the realities of life. Again, balance is the key. Dream just enough to stimulate your creativity and your desire to change things for the better, but don’t let your life become a constant fantasy or illusion.
Often, the deepest desires of your soul are suggestions from the spirit to awaken you from inertia and to stimulate your creative impulses toward higher achievements. Do not repress these impulses. Contemplate them, explore them, study them, and find methods, paths, and alternatives to turn your ideas into reality. How do you think the creative power from on high manifests itself in your world? Only through the minds of those who “listen” and try to manifest in the world the higher realities they construct in their minds with the help of the spirit.”

Urantia, February 6, 2014.
Mentori Spokesperson.
Subject: “Self-Correction.”
Received by Lytske.
Mentor: “Please listen to what I have to say to you and all other mortals on this planet. So often you humans refuse to listen to what those wonderful Gifts from God within – the Thought Adjusters – have given to each of you, counseling you for your souls’ sake. Therefore, it is to me, a Mentor from a Higher Realm, to give you all an important message.
“Many of you have been informed that the Time of Correction is upon you. I am now endeavoring to explain the true meaning of this. The Time of Correction is meant for all her citizens living now, and those who will inhabit this planet in future times. The call going forth is that of ‘Self-Correction.’ This needs to be impressed upon all, as no one is exempted from this self-correction.
“By truthfully observing yourselves, and your interactions with others, you will find much that can stand corrective measures in the form of tolerance, acceptance, and forgiveness, especially in close relationships. Such would have positive effects in your neighborhoods and all surrounding areas. Eventually, the cities would improve as the citizens are becoming more responsible in their behavior towards each other.
“Peace would finally have a chance to bloom and reverberate throughout all segments of society. Think about how social and business life would pick up when people would reach out with their self-worth and integrity intact. Governments and Courts of Law would have to follow suit. Wherever you are situated, think, and use your imagination about where improvement is needed.
“The main thrust would be for quality of life, so all would have a chance to fulfill their life’s purpose without regrets when later looking back at their life after the dissolution of the physical temple. The next matter of importance would be that all citizens develop a desire to live a godly life, something to be proud of for all eternity. However, this would include a long-awaited equality for men and women, for you were given to each other as compliments. This area is wide open for corrective improvement. Think about loving and valuing each other as human beings and act upon this for the benefit of your children.
“Put your thinking caps on and start realizing that even the smallest efforts shall have huge positive consequences down the line. There is no better time than the present to start improving yourselves, as each positive moment is etched into eternity. Urantia (earth) has a special place among her sister planets, as she received the singular honor of being the hostess of the last Bestowal of the Ruler of this mighty universe, the Being you know as Jesus. This great honor only falls to one planet among a potential ten million. To the citizens of Urantia the clarion call goes out to fulfill her destiny as the most beautiful garden planet of which you are to be the caretakers.
“Consider these my words, and start acting the part, with self-correction, which translates into progress for the planet herself.”
