Teacher: Prolotheos.
Subject: “Why Revenge is Wrong.”
Received by Valdir Soares.
Prolotheos: “Some things are easy to classify as either right or wrong and others are not. When a recognized good, generous public figure, is accused, condemned and sentenced to death for a fictitious crime like sedition, as the Judaic authorities did to Jesus of Nazareth, it is not difficult to see the injustice of such a judgment. When, the case for example is to classify as wrong an act of revenge which even agrees with the old commandment — ‘an eye for an eye’ — it is not so easy. However, Jesus, left no doubt that, revenge, although acceptable in the olden days, is unacceptable in the Kingdom of God. He taught: ‘do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also.’ Therefore, revenge is wrong; but why is it? Revenge has at least three mistaken assumptions:
Mistaken Assumption #1: Anyone is Entitled to Revenge.
“If everybody were entitled to hand out justice of their own accord, you would have returned to barbaric times, and your civilization wouldn't have progressed thus far by means of Law and Order. There is much diversity, perversion of divine values, and ignorance of origins in humanity to trust the sense of justice of each individual. A time will come (in a distant age yet) when individuals will be trusted to be the law unto themselves, but that time has not yet come. Humans are imperfect beings and so are their institutions. Still, even as imperfect as these institutions are, they are the best you have; the alternative is chaos. Besides, revenge presumes you own other people’s lives to dispose of them as suits you. Truthfully, you don't even own yourself. No, no one is entitled to revenge.
Mistaken Assumption #2: One Evil Cancels Another Evil.
“Revenge is no less evil than the offense originally committed. Malice, the evil’s motivation, is present at the root of both of them. Therefore, as in math, two negatives just add to each other and what really cancels a negative value is to add a positive one to it. Evil only produces more evil. Only when you add love to the mix can evil really be canceled. As violence generates more violence, revenge will only bring more revenge to an evil cycle. Revenge is dull, love is smart; revenge is a virus (uncontrollably destructive), love is a life seed that grows with order and purpose. No, evil does not cancel evil; love does.
Mistaken Assumption #3: Justice is About Punishment.
“Human beings by misusing the gift of Personality and Free Will, can put themselves beyond redemption. Human justice believes punishment will make things right. In fact, it doesn’t. Punishment, even if eternal (Hell, if it would exist) can never pay for the offense or redeem the offender; not even the punishment of an innocent instead of the guilty one can. In God’s perfect Justice, beings who by their own choosing put themselves beyond God’s Mercy, will unfailingly agree with their own annihilation, and will be as if they never existed. That makes things right for comparatively few beings who do not want to follow the will of God, and for all others who do. No, punishment doesn't make things right, but God’s Justice does.
“Therefore, my pupil, revenge is wrong because it is the product of malice and evil as much as is the original offense it tries to make right. Entitlement to revenge presupposes you have a right over others when you are injured — which no one has. Finally, revenge, by punishing in return does not make justice, because an offense can’t be undone, but certainly by love can be pardoned, and in God’s Justice the offender may be rehabilitated or if rehabilitation is rejected (by comparatively few), annihilation intervenes. I am Prolotheos, your teacher-tutor on High. Peace be with you and with all.”

Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Create a New Being.”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “From time to time, you wonder whether something you are doing or have done is in accordance with ‘the rules’ or whether it should be considered ‘good’ or ‘bad.’ This is valid during the early stages of spiritual development and is, in fact, an indispensable step in the lives of those who wish to become progressively better. However, as you advance on your journey toward perfection and your spiritual discernment becomes clearer, this way of thinking must be set aside.
The new standard used by those who have glimpsed a little of their eternal destiny is: What destiny am I creating for myself? What kind of person do I want to be? How closely does the personality I am building resemble the one the Father wishes to express through me? Your primary task at this stage of your existence is to create a new being with the help of your Heavenly Father. This new being will be an original manifestation of God throughout all creation and will be a co-creative agent who will help manifest the Father's will throughout the universes.
By using this new standard, the decisions you make become clearer, and your actions acquire a new significance. You will no longer be governed by the rules of men, but by a higher standard. Human rules are a starting point, but the spiritual principles that arise in the hearts of those who seek perfection promote a higher expression of personality and seek to express the truth, beauty, and goodness that the creature increasingly understands.
In every decision you make, do not rely on the human concept of good or evil. There are many things that your laws permit, even when they go against the highest principles of true spirituality. In many places, killing is condoned as long as it is a matter of honor or an act of self-defense. Even when human law may permit it, taking another person's life is an abhorrent act to all souls who have accepted that they are children of God.
From now on, consider how each decision and action brings you closer to what you wish to become. Build in your mind an increasingly beautiful and truthful ideal of personality. Imagine the noblest and kindest personality, and then strive to become what you have imagined. Indeed, this will be the highest image of God that you can comprehend with your mortal mind, and your effort to approach this ideal represents your soul's effort to progress in spirit and live according to the Father's will.
Through your life experiences and your desire to become progressively better, this ideal you have built in your mind will gradually become clearer and draw ever closer to the truth of the Father's nature. Likewise, your efforts to become what you have dreamed of will bring you ever closer to the goal of perfection. In this way, you will always know with certainty which things bring you closer to your goal and which things hinder the attainment of perfection. This will illuminate every decision you must make at each step along your journey through life.
However, remember that even when the path is clear, choosing the right course of action is not easier. Many decisions can be difficult, and on many occasions you will need to draw upon your faith and courage. But you will always have the comfort of knowing that when you choose wisely and with the highest intention, any confusion or suffering is only temporary, for it represents just one more step on your ascent toward greater usefulness and more lasting happiness.”

Scribbles 32 from Lytske.
January 18, 1999.
It is necessary for you to write these words. It is a way for you to learn to focus. Your thoughts are tumbling through your head, and there is a great need for you to learn to focus with intent. We would encourage you to write things down, as it is important to thereby also slow down your thoughts, as the words come during periods such as prayer and meditation.
You now have some qualms about this process due to your reading material contradicting what you were taught. The word ‘channeling’ was used throughout the publication. Are you in a trance right now? No, you are not. The top of your head (brain) is very active, which is due to the change in energy. You could write about what it is you feel there. It is spreading throughout, and you are becoming aware of your feet on the floor, the sensations flowing down your legs. You are opening up to energy, or are you going to deny this?
Energy is Energy, is Energy. The Thought Adjuster is Pure Energy. Your opening to energy sensation/feeling is a sign of growth. Do not deny yourself the Father’s gifts because someone told you, ‘This cannot be.’
You are the one who feels this energy, and your responsibility lies in the acceptance of this. If there were no energy, nothing would exist. Everything consists of energy; otherwise, everything would fall apart. Communication like this is energy, too. It all comes from the same source; the Source of all that Is.
You literally are a tiny ball of energy, swimming in an ocean of energy. It is a harmonic dance, this dance of life, of being-ness. Rejoice at your growing awareness of your energetic connection to the Source. Strengthen your connection to that Source by opening yourself, praying, meditating, and growing.
It is all so individual, the experience of awakening. Do not deny yourself because fear creeps in, or because someone says this cannot be. Become a pure channel of the Father’s love in your work with others.
It is a blessed thing to be about the Father’s business. Continue your work, and focus your intent on this and grow. We love you and encourage you.
We are your Teachers.

Subject: “Turn your Porch Light on.”
Message received by Anyas.
Thought Adjuster: “Let us talk about Divine Input. You read that Divine Input has to travel through various layers of the human consciousness, working its way from the superconscious mind to the subconscious mind before seeping into the conscious mind.
The superconscious mind is the level of the finest vibrations, whereas the conscious mind has the densest ones. Therefore, much can get ‘lost in translation’ as the human mind is still very rudimentary compared to the expansions it will experience in its ascension process – the process through which it steadily elevates its vibrations. The trickling down of Spirit could be compared to the condensation of air particles into the much denser water particles.
Spirit has to come down to meet man at his current level of development. It takes a concerted effort between the human and the divine, as was depicted so beautifully in Michael Angelo’s painting of God and man reaching out to one another with outstretched arms.
When you want to receive Divine Guidance, you must express your readiness and willingness to do so. You must send out the invitation and patiently wait for the Guest to arrive in your conditioned mental space. You must be receptive, i.e., present-minded, as any absent-mindedness could be compared to being away from home when the guest arrives, to being a no-show.
You do not know when the Guest will finally arrive, because you do not know the distance to be covered. What matters is that you establish a daily routine of being present and of turning your porch light on, so to speak, to welcome your special Guest. You can notify your Guest that you will always be home between such and such hours — the time dedicated to your Stillness practice.
Simultaneously, it will teach you inner discipline and how to access the Stillness more and more easily. All you have to do is to commit to doing it and to faithfully follow through — thus demonstrating that you mean it, that you are fully invested in heart, soul, and mind. What a powerful pledge of allegiance it would be that would unfailingly move the Divine to drop in unannounced and yet ardently awaited!”

Teacher: Celestial Engineer, Isaac.
Subject: “Engineering and the Past.”
(A very much cut down transmit.)
Message received by George Barnard.
Isaac: “It has been some time since we shared our deliberations with the people you call the 11:11 members. We, you and I, have conversed in passing, yes, many times in the past few years, but now I do want to say a few words about Celestial Engineers. There is much about time and space, energy and matter and God’s workers that make their offices and workrooms out in these ‘touchable’ places.
“There you have the Celestial Engineer as an example. My being one of them, I would dare say, makes me an excellent contact for the purpose of clarifying their functions. Space is wonderful for space-bound creatures and at some time a planet advances sufficiently to find the need for our services. We are the ones who connect the mind circuits of all kinds, a task that can take weeks to complete. And there you have something in the way of abilities where we excell.
“We can carry on with a task without a second’s break for weeks, taking on energy as we proceed. We can conclude the answer to complex mathematical problems by simply taking in all of hundreds of math components and the complex answers simply ‘come into existence’ in our minds after a time. When the task — lengthy or short — has been completed, we are scheduled to be relieved of our duties for a comparable length of time. Presently I’m nearing the end of a eight day holiday of mindal reinvigoration . . . remaining sane, if you like that idea, or 100% real.
“Mostly I travel to Urantia for this kind of ‘R and R’. Urantia is the Master’s famous bestowal planet and I also meet many ‘visitor types’ here. I also like your high mountains and beautiful beaches and as well, yes, best of all, I have friends on this planet.
“Celestial Engineers of the local universe of Nebadon are almost as old as the universe herself. I first arrived on this planet when it was still a hot cinder. Long after, I saw fauna and flora come and go. It succeeded and then it failed. I saw diverse hominids come and go — yes, some you don’t know about even now, and some whose DNA is not even slightly present in yours. Some smart apes and lemurs mutated positively in antiquity only to come to a luckless ending without any progeny.
“I can contain and retain all this information of century after century, and when my body is renewed, my gifted mind rejoins the new me, quite intact, for I awaken as I previously was.
“Now for the answer to the question posed. The European (Bosnian) pyramids are real. Ask any engineer. I quite frequently watched them being worked on over an enormous spread of time. Understand that revelation does not normally digress for no reason at all. Is there an urgent need to know? If not, why complicate the revelation? You are clever, you can find out for yourselves.
