Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Religious Experience”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “Chanting, memorized prayers, mantra recitations, none of these practices have any power or effectiveness unless they are supported by faith, by a trust in the forces that control the universe and move through your life to show you the path. For a long time, mortals have sought magic formulas to achieve what they want and satisfy their needs. However, life will soon teach attentive students that they can only reap fruits from the seeds they have planted.
“A religious practice or any ritual can have a socializing effect in the members of a religious group. If after a ritual you feel enlivened and gain the mental disposition to try to be the best you can be, then the ritual is productive, something with real value because it helps you direct your will toward eternal goals. This ritual can be meditation, visualization, chanting, prayer, etc. Each path is unique and the Father is always present in every little effort of a creature to come closer to Him.
“Every human being should strive to have an authentic religious experience in his or her life. True religion is a balm that heals the wounds of life. It is also the inspiration to face new challenges with courage and hope. A true religion produces in the lives of those who practice it the fruits of spirit – peace, love, goodness, compassion, joy, and faith. Those who have a true religious experience in their lives are truly free, independent from the conditions of the world, from the traditions of society, and from group conditioning. If what you practice today is not providing you with these results then it is better to search for alternatives.
“A true religious practice transforms a creature into an increasingly perfected being. Those who live a real religious experience can look back and notice how much they have progressed on their spiritual journey. They are also capable of continuous self-examination and focus on those details that need their attention in order to get closer to an image of perfection they hold in their minds – an image increasingly inspired by the Presence of God within their being.
“A religious practice is always personal and individual. Its benefits are first for the seeker, but the spiritual fruit, resulting from their search, inevitably influence and extend love to all those around the religious person. It is possible to change the world and turn this dark and confused sphere into a paradise of light and life, and the way to do this is for everyone to find their personal path to God and the inspiration to continuously strive to reach perfection.”

Machiventa Melchizedek.
Subject: “The Self-Made Spiritual Individual.”
Received by George Barnard.
Machiventa: “This is Machiventa Melchizedek, your Planetary Prince. I am at my observation post where it is easy for me to keep an eye on all my subjects. From the moment you decide to go into stillness, we here are notified. And so, I take this opportunity to enlarge on the subjects of your discussion. There is a way for me to explain what great opportunity you have on your world to become a self-made spiritual person.
“You covered in your discussion the Lucifer rebellion, the Caligastia betrayal, the Adamic default, and more. I want to add to this an important one; the natural but selfish instinct of your intellectuals, your preachers, your leaders, who will create a religion out of spiritual instructions in order to control, make dependent.
“And yet, you can be like the person that builds up a business from the ground up; the so-called self-made man with an idea, and the so-called self-made woman with a plan, who rise from poverty to riches. Let us use this only as an analogy of a kind.
“Here you are; a divided human population, not uniform and transplanted from another world, but grown from the very material of this decimal world – disadvantaged in many ways, genetically, educationally, and most importantly, for millennia and millennia beyond the Van and Amadon days, without any spiritual guidance – without anybody, that stayed around for thousands and thousands of years, to declare to all generations that there is just one God, to lead you, to teach you, to keep you on your spiritual path.
“And so, I say to you, you are not like the son or the daughter of the rich man, who can build another rich business, so easily with inherited funds. You are in many ways the impoverished, the down trodden of the universe, and so much to your credit if you can make yourself a straight path, if you can be productive, if you can be honest, if you can be that self-made spiritual individual, if you can believe in a God, and if you can live your life to the best of your ability, as one who really cannot prove there is a God, and yet knows there is a Father of all that is, Who is love personified.
“The disadvantages in your life on this world, in your time, become tremendous advantages in your morontia lives that follow. Few, in this sector of the universe have had handed to them the amazing possibilities that are yours by birthright. Begrudge them not their easier lives on regular worlds.
“This is Machiventa. I greet you both. May we have many more discussions soon.”
George: “Thank you Machiventa.”

Subject: “From a Goblet to a Chalice”
Message received by Anyas
“Your spiritual destiny is conditioned only by your spiritual longings and purposes.” [UB 156:5.9]
Thought Adjuster: “Have you seriously pondered your spiritual destiny? Do you intend to opt for eternal life since life in the flesh is short-lived? Are you already making judicious arrangements for a great start in the after-life, or will your spiritual procrastination cause you great anguish when your name is called for boarding the shuttle to higher dimensions?
“In one of his morally-educative animal fables, Lafontaine depicts the humanitarian crisis Mademoiselle Cricket found herself in after singing all summer long, neglecting to store victuals for the colder seasons. On the other hand, her next-door-neighbor, Madame Ant, industriously stocked her pantry while her musically-inclined acquaintance foolishly partied as if there were no tomorrow.
“Your free-will privilege gives you the right to self-govern, thus appreciating or depreciating your life portfolio. It is its use that determines the value of an object. Would you perform menial tasks with a golden chalice? Set your sight high as to your existential purpose, as the Father has high expectations for each one of you.
“I am not saying that life should be devoid of the down-times needed to recharge your energies. It is perfectly okay to attend outdoor crickets’ concerts and break bread with them. Nevertheless, keep in mind that you have limited time to lay the groundwork for a sustainable eternal future. You were not a doodle on the divine drawing board, but a miracle of engineering conceived to fit in the wheels of the Grand Scheme snuggly. It would floor you to know the long-term divine vision for your existence. Each leg of the journey will groom you for more extraordinary service—turning you from an ordinary goblet into a magnificent chalice.”

Teacher: The Beloved Within.
Subject: “Alike to a Sweet Incense.”
Message receive by Lytske.
The Beloved: “Allow your soul to burst forth in song, and offer up those songs to the great Creator of all. Alike to a sweet incense are the prayers of sincerity and joy, and a soul-felt gladness results. You are gradually trained according to your willingness and readiness for things to come.
“A greater awareness is dawning upon you that there is a much higher purpose to living then just the every-day worries about food and drink for the body.
“You come to Me daily because of a hunger for Me to feed your soul, and this is beginning to register as a greater significance in your mind. The spiritizing of your mind in connection with your soul is now well underway, as you take My words to heart, and ponder them.
“True harmony and balance shall someday be yours, as more and more you take Me with you in your daily living. Forget not that I am with you in each moment of the day and in each breath you take.
“Therefore, My beloved, begin to live each day more mindfully, so your thoughtfulness increases, and many more of your mortal siblings will recognize that you spend time with Me.
“They too, will desire to attain that peace of mind.”

Midwayer Chief Bzutu (ABC22).
Subject: “The Time-space Disagreement About 11:11.”
Received by George Barnard.
Bzutu: “It is the aspiration, the objective, of the great Architects of the time-space universes that all evolutionary worlds will, as closely as possible, come to resemble the worlds created in visualized perfection and instantaneous completion. Those, precisely, are the instructions given to them by the Architect of all Architects – the First Source and Centre to all that ever was, is, and will be.
“Clearly it is understood that there can be found little that is of a creature-evolutionary nature and innate to worlds that are created perfect. In contrast, there is initially little in the way of inherent creature-perfection to be found on evolutionary worlds. It is a function of our time-space universes to provide all its created, born, and eventuated citizens with an opportunity to, through lengthy experience, become God-like, and of great use as Ambassadors, and Teachers to, as well as benevolent Rulers of, the evolutionary universes now forming in deep space. Perfection in time-space, however, is consuming of much time.
“Is it not true that concrete takes time to harden, or it will become brittle and useless when the curing process is rushed? There is scientific proof that this is so. Is it not wise for a child to be taught according to a well-planned syllabus? We know for a fact that this is essential. As well, is it not vital for entire populations to advance at a measured pace? I give you as proof the sad decline of ‘over-run’ native populations in many lands. Even so, there are amongst you those who will reach for the sky, and want to see progress at break-neck speed. Indeed, whilst there are others, who will ‘throw out the anchor’ and shout, ‘Stop!’
“Only in a created world of perfection could there be agreement on all matters of importance, whereas on evolutionary worlds there must always be the two opposing forces – one to produce growth, the other to temper it – one to fly high, the other to bring one back to earth. And so it is on this world as on all other evolutionary worlds of time-space, as we come to tackle the question you have posed: ‘Why should there have been such strong and lengthy disagreement about the wide-spread use of the 11:11 time-prompts?’
“To understand the objections one needs to compare established religion, with the spirituality of the individual, and a third, heretofore unknown, but sure-fire way of finding your Teacher and God. A religion requires you to believe in what it dictates without proof, spirituality demands that you have faith in the spirit world, and likely without a shred of solid evidence. However, the recipients of 11:11 time-prompts, through regular meditation, and without them believing anything at all, can prove, and they do prove time and again, that a spirit world exists, and that the universe is innately friendly.
“The now decades-past disagreement between the Progressive and Religious Angels dealt not so much with the certainty that some recipients of the 11:11 time-prompt would be frightened. That would happen. That was always obvious and predictable. The Religious Angels objections dealt to a far greater degree with the potential loss of your most enviable special status on this world; the birthright of the Agondonter.
“You are entitled to that special status on this troubled world by believing and having faith in God without having proof. Despite the fact that you can now prove the existence of the spirit world in a near-scientific way, that status has not been lost by you.”
