Subject: “The Soul Building Process – Part Two.”
Received by Chris.
Teacher Ophelius: “In continuance of our discussion on the soul building process, we will now look at the roles of the three soul processors – the mind, the heart, and the Thought Adjuster (TA). Each of them play an important part in determining what experiences, meanings, and values are harvested for soul building and eternal survival. The order in which these three processors are listed here is sequential to the order in which all experiences are processed – from the physical aspect of human awareness (the brain and the five senses), to the emotional center (the heart), to the spiritual operator (the TA). All three are necessary and all three work together in accordance with the free will prerogatives established by the Universal Father which assures relative untethered and diverse experience harvesting.
“The mind, the heart, and the TA can be thought of like the three branches of democratic government – the legislative branch (mind), the executive branch (heart) and the judicial branch (the TA). To build a healthy and weighty soul, all three must function together, and communicate laterally sending feedback for wisdom gathering, yet for many, the executive branch can often bypass the judicial branch by executive order and make decisions that are not necessarily of survival value. The ability of a government to serve the highest good for its constituency is determined by the quality of the members of the legislative and executive branches – the judicial branch only contains one member (the TA) and He retains sovereign authority in what passes through to the soul.
“There is a two party system at work in the first two branches – those members (human thoughts) that are more aligned with fear and those that are more aligned with human love (conditional love) – the TA operates exclusively on Divine Love (unconditional love). There is constant debate among these partisan members which does not always serve the greater good of the soul, yet the debate is essential to the functioning of free will. The judicial branch (TA) has no authority over what the other two branches do or what experiences they will entertain, yet the TA will express its opinion in certain matters, which the executive and legislative branches can take under consideration or ignore completely.
“The legislative branch (mind) searches out and brings life experiences through the senses and presents them to the executive branch (the heart) for a decision on whether it will pursue the current course of action or will choose another based on the wisdom of past events. If the majority of its members belong to the Fear Party, then it is more likely the decisions of the executive branch (heart) will be subservient to the ego and the experiences will be discordant and not likely to pass through the judiciary. If it is more dominated by the Love Party, the decisions of the heart are more likely to fall in favor of love, mercy, and compassion and the experiences are more likely to pass through the judicial branch and on into the soul. The judiciary (TA) holds the experiences up to the light and compares them to the precedence set by the Universal Father by the criteria of Truth, Beauty, and Goodness (the constitution).
“The operations of the three soul processors are more complicated than this parity suggests, yet it is meant to stimulate your own thoughts about how experiences are processed. In Part Three (3) of this series, we will look at the experiences themselves and what practical value they serve for the surviving soul.
“Peace to you,
“The Circle of Seven.”

Urantia, August 6, 2014.
Teacher: A Mentori Spokesperson.
Subject: “On Becoming Perfect.”
Received by Lytske.
Mentor: “What I am about to divulge is for the edification of all who have an ear to hear and a mind to comprehend the deeper meaning, and the purpose, of living. There is much that is not revealed to the human eye, but can be, and is, divulged to the discerning mind. The reason for this is that many people don’t take the time to think deeply enough to discover hidden meanings, everywhere, even abounding in nature. It is only during the last century or so that humans have been able to develop instruments powerful enough to discover things that have always been there. The wonders of nature; when discovered with time-lapse photography, are no longer hidden.
“These wonders are for all who take the time to observe matters that bring them closer to the creative powers of God. It is for the discerning mind and eye to find itself closer to so-called miracles. The wonders of discovery are never ending, as even when a raindrop or a snowflake are examined, not one is alike, as each is designed differently. Ponder the deeper meaning of all this, for even the myriad stars are each unique, and the eternal Creator knows them all by name and number.
“Do let this realization dawn in your evolving minds and see where these thoughts lead you. Do take the time and figure out where your place is in the scheme of things. What is the purpose of having been given a mind, is it to be used or squandered? Is it to lie dormant and undeveloped? Is it to get stuck in some rigid dogma or theology dreamed up by some human long gone, or might there perhaps be a chance for some independent active connection to the All That Is?
“Consider this most important matter. How is it that you humans have been given this precious life to live? What will you answer your celestial overseers, once you exchange your material bodies for one befitting your undying spirit-soul? Will there be some substance like love and goodwill, compassion, tolerance and forgiveness embedded in your souls? Contemplate these things, please, as you humans can entertain some very weird ideas that you will be perfect once you leave your planetary abode. Such is an extremely childish fantasy, and it is high time to burst that bubble of fanciful superstition. Such would be too easy with nothing worthwhile gained.
“The Gods have provided, for each soul called to life on the planets of space, a most wonderful and intriguing ascension journey, but only if you be so willing, since you have also been given free will to follow, or not to follow, the leading of your indwelling Sparks from God. The Gods literally weep at the stubbornness of you lowly creatures, that you simply are too willful being totally immersed in your own programs, forgetting that there is a higher purpose to living. The question begs to be asked: ‘When will humanity wake up and hear the Still Voice calling from within their hearts that there is a most beautiful eternal journey waiting for all of you?’ Get out of your little boxes and put your God-given thinking caps on, so you can proceed according to the mandate of God, to become perfect, like He is.”

Celestial Engineer, Isaac.
Subject: “A New World.”
Received by George Barnard.
Isaac: “Good afternoon, my friends. (greetings acknowledged). Quite decidedly do I recall that I requested of you to not start any new wars in my absence. And what have you done? Well, true, much of what meets my eyes on my return is the same old … Nothing at all has changed. You are rather much-more-so at it, like the brave warriors you are, killing women and children. If Urantia were typical of the progressive planets in this local universe, I might well be given a lesson in recycling worlds, rather than encircuiting them.
“I see that we are ‘of a mind’ and both of us far from impressed about the goings on, here on my favorite Urantia holiday retreat. For now I am back from the planet of my recent abode, and for now she is left looking like she has been encased in a spider’s web of lose circuitry, but there is more to be done later, much, much later. As promised, I can give you some details of this world.
“She is larger in size by approximately nine percent compared to your home planet. By the time she will be ready for occupation, still millions of years into the future, she will be still larger in size, and grown through the countless small meteorites impacting her surface. One day she will be able to support humans of a very much smaller size to your human average. And, no, this is not a decimal planet. Whilst some new number of sub-species will likely ‘eventuate’ in distant times, all life will be imported, not evolve in situ.
“There is little more that I will tell you, as there are limitations to what I am allowed to disclose. More so, much of what I learned is beyond your understanding. However, of interest to you, and as I earlier indicated and showed you, a lot of the land area is covered with what resembles a woody vetch, yellow, green to red-brown in color. Its foliage will shrink the huge amount of carbon in the atmosphere, and, equally importantly, the acid bleeding from its roots will crumble the hard rock into useful soil for later, larger vegetation.
“The ongoing analyses of conditions on that world, by Life Carriers, students and helpers of many kinds, will ensure that the planet will be prodded along to become a splendid, healthy habitat for many a life form with humans at the apex. The vegetation you were so interested in may not even endure beyond the rehabilitation task for which it was designed. Then again, it may survive if it can adapt.
“Survival through adaptation will become rather important for some species on your planet, the human species in particular. Speak up my friends, and do say ‘no’ to further wars.
“It’s good to be welcomed here. May God bless you all.”
Notes: I was shown that vetch-like plant – hillsides full of it. Its roots actually moved, although somewhat slowly over the shiny wet rock and boulders.
Isaac is not a Midwayer, but a Celestial Engineer. That’s not explaining anything much, but he is one of the best of our friends. He sticks by his promises, enjoys humor, and greatly dislikes wars.

Teacher Prolotheos.
Subject: “Superpower Nations.”
Received by Valdir Soares.
Prolotheos: “Urantians are in the habit of calling some nations the superpowers. From a celestial perspective, real power deals with embracing goodness, peace and justice. Since your nations are far from serious in promoting these principles, that superpower classification is highly debatable, even inappropriate. You have heard the maxim: ‘With great power comes great responsibility.’ Bearing this motto in mind, let us take this opportunity to address what could be the responsibility of these so-called superpowers, if they were to be intent on working for the well-being of Urantia. By the foregoing terms, the responsibility of these ‘superpowers’ would indeed be ‘super-responsibility’.
“These so-called superpowers should exhibit bona fide interest in worldwide peace. Your governments cannot help but reflect your own personal lackings – the habit of taking advantage of any supposed superiority for personal profit. The most powerful of your nations, are those that emerged as such after profiting from successive wars, currently being the most belligerent nations on Urantia. No wonder so few sincere peace initiatives are coming from them. In life, you only receive something when you really work for it; and as long as worldwide peace is merely a touching phrase in beauty pageant contests, no peace is in sight.
“Your supposed superpower nations should start to equitably share their wealth, both within their countries and abroad. The abundant wealth of these superpowers is clearly shown to all when they engage in any war enterprise, and it is not without reason that many of you wonder how much real benefit this wealth would bring if applied to further the advancement of human beings, within and abroad, by means of better education, improved health services and social equality. Unfortunately, the ‘humanitarian funds’ of these so called superpowers are too often attached to discretionary external politics, favoritism, and provoke the indignation of those left out.
“So-called superpowers should invest more in an effective worldwide union of the nations. Past efforts, both during the aftermaths of your worldwide wars, were well-meant initiatives, but their failures were predictable as they were veiled impositions, and kept real power in the hands of few nations with veto power. A planetary union organization should embody real power from and over all nations on matters that could threaten planetary peace. However, would nations of Urantia relinquish their power of decision making in international matters to a Global Council? Or should I say, would the so-called superpowers take such a step in favor of peace?
“In the celestial view, the more superior you are, the more service oriented you must be. Christ Michael so taught you when incarnated among you as Jesus of Nazareth: ‘Whoever wants to become great among you must become the servant of others’. This he gave as an example. The essence of greatness is shown in impartial labor on behalf of the needy and distressed, not as an ‘strategic move’, seeking profitable returns. The true profit of goodness is the contemplation of the ennoblement of the neighbor. Unfortunately, currently, no nation on Urantia, is worthy of the adjective ‘great’. This is Prolotheos, your tutor on high.”

Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Life is Perfect.”
Received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “For those who live with true faith and learn to glimpse the hand that organizes everything from behind the veil, life seems to have a definite purpose and everything seems to conspire to make each human increasingly more perfect. However, your free will is never violated. You are always the one who makes your decisions. Nobody will reach perfection if this is not desired, and often the desires of the soul are ignored by confused mortal minds.
“To those who decide not to let themselves be guided and answer only to the perceptions of their limited vision, life may seem unpredictable and at times nonsensical. Even when they achieve what they desire, it doesn’t bring them happiness, which increases the mysteries that surround the lives of these immature mortals.
“There are many who desire in their hearts to find the Father and to be better, even when in their material minds they don’t even know how to begin. This desire is the only thing the Father needs to start making this a reality through His Inner Presence and the many spiritual influences that minister to human beings.
“It is possible for many to be lost in drugs, vices, a life dedicated exclusively to material pleasures, power struggles, and in their souls still have the desire to leave that situation behind, be a better person and find peace, even if they don’t consciously realize this, and their actions indicate the opposite. These souls will be cared for with as much love as the ‘good’ ones. They will receive every opportunity to find true freedom and choose their eternal destiny. It is never too late to go back to the path that will lead you toward your eternal goals.
“Yes, life is perfect for those who progressively let themselves be guided by their Inner Spark. Those who grow in spirit will be able to look back on their lives and see how every situation was an opportunity to gain wisdom and express the best of their true nature. Simply learning to listen is the key to achieve the real goals of one’s mortal life and come closer to the purpose of life – the achievement of perfection.”
