Prometheus’ Treasures - XIII.
Subject: “Cultivating Wellbeing–Part I–Parenting the Viable Child.”
Received by Renée.
Teacher Prometheus: “Well-being is a phrase that can be applied in all situations where a human-being is called upon to make a choice, for the choice to serve is presented time and time again to each child of the evolutionary spheres. The consciously ethical, striving, and spiritually receptive individual is aware of the potentialities of choice-making to a degree in the rudimentary intellect which develops with each experiential choice. The average-minded human being certainly has in their possession free will, bestowed at the time the personality-gift is given, at birth and not before. Teaching the child to make choices, which consider the well-being of others, is of paramount importance. As it states in the Urantia Papers, the Gift of the Thought Adjuster does not arrive until the human child makes his or her first moral choice.
“An infant develops an ability to communicate and this precipitates learning via choice-making. Parents must be cognizant of the fact that they are members of a community, which supports the family, and therefore they must teach their children to make responsible choices within the community. The ‘common good’ must be considered the higher priority, before a choice is made which has the potential to affect the whole community.
“The first several years of development are focused on the nourishment of the mind, the physical vehicle and the emotional-psychological and social needs of the child. The child’s sense of self is but the seed of consciousness, a narrow and necessarily self-focused awareness. The needs of the child stimulate the human parents investments of time, energy, but most importantly love. This ‘self’ could be called ‘ego’ but would more properly be described as a seed of greater ‘consciousness’. The investment of the efforts of human parents, Mother Spirit, and Seraphim which tend to the young children and the over-care-protective-calming energies of Christ Michael our Universe Sovereign are required to grow the seed to an expanded consciousness. Personality depends upon this expanded consciousness.
“The Spirit of Truth – the Gift of Christ Michael to His Urantian children after his resurrection (more appropriately called translation from His mortal Bestowal mission) – begins to work in coordination with the Adjutant Mind Spirits of Mother Spirit as soon as the child has sufficient awareness of self and the awareness of his or her ability to respond to stimulus and create ‘thought forms’ which are an expression of its needs and feelings. The needs of the self-aware human-child-personality are not simply physical!
“The child-personality desires, and above all else needs, the acceptance and loving affection and the attentiveness of his or her parents. The child also fundamentally requires and deserves safety and security. The child can only thrive if certain primary conditions are met: Firstly, a safe and caring environment; secondly, accepting and nurturing attitudes from the care-givers; thirdly, the nourishment which stimulates growth of body, mind-intellect, and social, emotional, and ‘spiritual intelligence’.
“The conditions of safety, acceptance, nourishment and commitment – response-ability – to the needs of the child must be met sufficiently for there to be a ‘viable child’, who yearns to learn beyond the vital prerequisite of simple animal-survival skills.

Urantia, July 1, 2014.
Teacher: Thought Controller.
Subject: “The Power of Forgiveness.”
Received by Lytske.
Thought Controller: “You, my dear charge, have asked that I, your Thought Adjuster, may formally be known as your Thought Controller. This means in ‘heaven’s terms’ that you are willing to hand your free will over to me. Put in other words, this simply means that we have now become a more consciously cooperative union between God and mortal. Over the years you have learned that I am a Fragment of God, which nevertheless shares in all of God’s attributes.
“Therefore, any question you desire to ask of God will be answered by me. The thing you need to remember is that I am a living Spark from the Universal Creator, and therefore I am also able to anticipate your needs. All that is needed from you is an mind-set of gratitude, as this will access my guiding help with greater ease. Even the Father in heaven desires to be recognized by His mortal children, just like an earthly father loves to receive the recognition of his children.
“A simple thank-you acknowledgment is always noted and welcome when it comes from the heart, for the heart is a most useful and needed instrument as it fulfills different functions, mainly as the giver and receiver of life and love, which is why it is such a delicate instrument. As well, but no less important, it is the provider of unconditional forgiveness. On these character traits depends the entire human system’s equilibrium.
“In case love or forgiveness is withheld for whatever reason, the whole system suffers to some degree, be it intellectually, emotionally, physically, or spiritually. This is why it is extremely important for good thoughts to be entertained by the mortal inhabiting that precious physical creation from God – the human body – for it serves as the temple of the undying spirit-self, depending on that Spirit-self having a chance to evolve during the mortal’s life-time. There is much more, however, the main lesson for today is on the Power of Forgiveness.
“Anyone, desiring a healthy physical body ought to be educated about this all-important issue, which has all too often fallen by the wayside, so to say. Think about how you feel when someone harbors a grudge against you, or you are not happy with someone. The most healing thing to do is to get these hidden issues out into the open, and speak with the person concerned. Most important of all, send him or her loving vibrations by entertaining loving thoughts about them.
“Long-held grudges and resentment will sooner or later afflict the physical system when emotions have had their fill and can no longer take such real, although silent, abuse of negative thoughts. Therefore, for anyone desiring to clean the slate at any time of the day or night, forgiveness will be the key to a long and healthy life including that wonderful quality of unconditional love. The physical heart will thank the owner by performing at its fullest potential.
“The power of forgiveness is not to be underestimated. Instead, my counsel shall always be: Wipe clean the slate before going to sleep at night. This ranks among the highest of doing God’s will when coupled with loving intentions.”

Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “About Talents and Expectations.”
Received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “When a person explores her talents and discovers even a hint of her purpose in life, this realization brings with it great joy. How is it then that so many, even when they are doing that for which they are naturally predisposed, still don’t feel this profound satisfaction? This often happens when they let themselves be swayed by material appearances and human expectations.
“A homemaker may feel she is achieving something important by dedicating her time to the care of her children, at the expense of other forms of self-expression. However, others may make her feel useless because she is not making money or doing something else that society would deem to be more valuable. This is not to suggest that ‘the place of a woman is in the kitchen’, but to highlight the fact that everyone should have the freedom to choose their very own way of contributing to civilization without being misguided by others and their ways of thinking.
“There are many examples in this regard. Consider a young man who wishes to become a farmer and has a great aptitude for it, but is forced to become a doctor or an engineer because these are more ‘prestigious’ endeavors. Consider an artist who renounces her abilities because she can’t find a decent way to make a living with art. Consider a politician who wants to promote ideas of peace and equality but never gets the chance to do it because he doesn’t have the resources to compete against the powerful. With all these examples it is the group – community, society, nation – who influences the outcome of an individual’s aspirations by passing judgment on what is considered to be important or unimportant. And what is a group if not the collective decisions and actions of each and every one of you?
“In this world it is possible that you may not devote yourself to those endeavors in which you could achieve excellence because of your natural potential. Many lives have passed without mortals even suspecting the talents hidden within their being. Eternity, however, will provide plenty of opportunities to help your achieve your highest potential and let you experience the joy of self-discovery in your finding a unique and original way to express God through your distinctive personality.
“However, while you are living here in the flesh, do everything you can to explore, and move beyond your comfort zone, to attempt adventures in different areas of knowledge and expression. This life is the initial step of your entry into eternity, and the more you learn about yourself the better prepared you will be for the next level of your existence. Manage your time to be able to explore and learn new things while you are still struggling for material survival in this world.”

Teacher Hezekiah.
Subject: “Celestial Changes.”
Received by Valdir Soares.
Hezekiah: “When you arrive on Mansion World Number One, you will have gained nothing in personal spiritual status. At your passing, your guardian angel retrieves your personality factors, and she will keep them ‘intact’ until the time you will be reconstituted an active (former human) morontia being here on High. However, there will be some changes. In substance, you remain the same, but here you will find yourself in a different universe location (on a mansion world of Satania), and in a different dimension, (morontial). There are at least three important instrumental changes that will have occurred with you as you restart your journey here on Mansonia.
“First off, you will notice that you are in possession of a new body. This new body resembles the human body you had on Urantia, but it is equipped with extra, as well as improved morontia senses. It also does not feature sexual organs, or means for waste elimination, since a morontia body is non reproductive and fully digests all food ingested. Upon your having been reassembled here, your first morontia body is a heavier one compared to the following ones you will receive. Your morontia body will change, becoming lighter and lighter, and by the time you reach Salvington, you will have become a first stage spirit.
“Furthermore, the mind circuit of Urantia is different to those of the morontia worlds. Here you will partake of the Cosmic Mind as our Mother Spirit, Nebadonia, represents it in the Universe of Nebadon. The Cosmic Mind is a mindal connection bestowed upon all morontia and spiritual beings, but the Deities and the High Sons possess deity minds. When you awaken on Mansonia, due to the Cosmic Mind, you will more closely perceive the presence and communication of your Thought Adjuster, until when you will fuse with Him (Her), when He (She) will become one with you.
“Here you will be translated to a new way of life. A morontia culture is greatly more advanced than that of Urantia. At first, by living together with others beings of human origin, you will start in Mansonia One to experience an overall culture that is marked by a more elevated spiritual consciousness – one comparable to your world having reached the Light and Life Era. Concerning activities, your life on the morontia worlds will not be much different from your life now. There you will continue where you left off here, and you will still make time for study, work, rest and leisure.
“As you can see, even as you will not immediately change your essence, several changes will accompany your re-personalization here on Mansonia. Here, each and every provision will be made for you to continue your progress on the Father’s path, pursuing the goal of perfecting yourself as He is perfect. Here, you will be part of a better world, so you too will become a better person. This is your teacher Hezekiah. I talk of what I know from personal experience, for long ago I was just like you on Urantia, but today I enjoy citizenship on Jerusem. Peace to all.”

Midwayer Chief Bzutu (ABC-22).
Samuel of Panoptia.
Subject: “God’s Law over Human Decree.”
Received by George Barnard.
Bzutu: “You have now let your Teacher wait long enough, so brighten up, please.”
Samuel: “Aaron and I will answer the question posed on the subject of reconciliation. It has at other times been covered in a more general sense, you will recall. Here, however, we will discuss with you the repercussions of the taking of a human life, or the taking of multiple human lives, as such deeds impact upon the perpetrator as well as the victim.
“Firstly, it is important for you to understand that there is only one law, which fully applies to every thinking creature. No one, no matter who, or what they have placed themselves in charge of, can claim that they are not subject to this law – God’s Law – and it is clear that taking a life is one of the unacceptable infringements upon His Law. We will not cover the obvious circumstance of harm done to another in the case of real self preservation. We here consider the ending of another’s life in the case where one sets out to do so.
“Your world is in turmoil, unmistakenly so. In the years since World War Two, millions upon millions have been murdered in deceitful attacks for imagined reasons, exaggerated rationale, and newly invented pre-emptive pretexts, yes, all these without validity whatever. On the other side are those whom you may conveniently describe as militants, yet they may be doing no more than defending their patch, their town, their country. The untimeliness of their death is the point we make, for physical death is a mortal’s given ending.
“One needs to consider that a shortened mortal life equates with a reduced experiential input – the very reason why their space-time existence was of the utmost importance – irreplaceable, really. In the case of an infant, early death now has as its result an inability to ascend to Paradise. By it missing life’s experiences, the child’s potential has likely been reduced. For the perpetrator of the crime it means bad karma, perhaps failure in his or her own Paradise journey, and wars of aggression are not exempted from all-round karma here.
“For those who have fallen, life experiences may well be inadequate. For those who killed on orders, there is near endless reconciliation to bring about on Mansonia One and beyond. Among those who gave the evil orders, many become discouraged by the enormity of what they now owe, and they decline to persist, for next to God’s Law, their human decrees never had any grounds. None, none at all, for thou simply shall not kill. See it so clearly now that those who can kill their kin have little at all left to offer their Father Creator.
“Aaron and I leave you now, and we leave you our love. This is Samuel the Panoptian.”
