Teacher: The Spark from God Within.
Subject: “Life is an Unfolding Journey.”
Received by Lytske.
The Spark from God Within: “It is timely to provide more proof that, yes, it is entirely possible to connect up with the Spark from God within. Everyone is allowed, and indeed encouraged, to give this Gift from God His or Her own name, so over time there will be established a great relationship. Instead of always depending on that wonderful Gift from God, the mortal hopefully evolves enough to finally in a moment of generosity say, ‘What can I do for you today? How can I please you in turn?’ This question would then be seen as a lovely gift from the heart and mind of that mortal, who would be well on the way to becoming immortal.
“Usually humans have needs and wants on their minds when they pray. Rarely does it occur to them that it would be greatly satisfying to the Creator of all to get a mere ‘morsel’ of appreciation from an individual, who is beginning to realize how blessed he or she is. Blessed, even though he or she can only be dimly aware of all the blessings raining down in a steady downpour. Never mind the outward material circumstances, there will always be something to be discovered one could be grateful for.
“To be given life is already the greatest blessing, even though this is commonly accepted as totally normal. People rarely think about what this great mystery of life is all about. Oh sure, they like to duplicate it or try to improve on life, but the initial Spark of Life is already there. No one will ever be able to create new life, for this is the prerogative of the Giver of all life. Even messing about with life carries its own responsibility, and the taking of another’s life will definitely need to be answered for in eternity.
“Here again, not many mortals entertain a concept of how long eternity can be. They may well think that it will be boring, ‘sitting on a cloud, playing a harp’. When will humanity wake up as to what truly is the purpose and meaning of living a life? Each human is individually responsible for what he or she is doing with that life, and how they fill their days. Here we do not even speak of all the lessons they give their selves, made possible through another Gift from the Creator – the free will to chose, to think, plan and act on impulses and decisions.
“The lessons will always be in the context of the meanings and values you give to your lives, in the love you humans give each other, in the responsiveness to someone’s needs. These golden nuggets you gather up to store in the ‘bank of heaven’ as quality to be used when you pass from the earth’s scene to the next step in your evolutionary ascension journey back to the Creator. To give account of how your life unfolded towards perfection using all the wonderful gifts, which at this point in time are still hidden awaiting exploration in all the coming stages of ascension. I assure you there will never be a dull moment in this unfolding journey, unless you make it so yourself.”

Teacher Ophelius.
Subject: “Go with the Flow – Embrace Change.”
Received by Chris.
Teacher Ophelius: “The message for today is about embracing change. What do I mean by this? Each one of you will come to a place where you must ‘shift’ and move from where you are today to where you shall be tomorrow, whether it is a state of awareness, a change in jobs, a new home, a new relationship, or releasing an old relationship that no longer serves you. These are all ‘chapters’ of your life that must be experienced, yet like a book, the chapter must be completed and come to a close, for new life, and new experiences await you in the chapters ahead where you may discover new meanings and new ways to grow in Truth, Beauty, and Goodness. These are all rungs on a ladder, my friends, which you must climb to move from imperfection to perfection as you are guided along your life plan by Spirit.
“Many of you students on the path are feeling this ‘tug’ to move, to change, to reinvent your lives and to step out of your comfort zone which you have settled into for so long. It feels as if a new day is dawning and you no longer fit into the old routine and rhythm that you have known for so long. Change is inevitable – it shall come, but how you handle the change will determine the difficulty or ease of the transition – that period where you adjust and make space for the new era of your life. Will you resist it, or will you flow with it? Will you be fearful, or will you have faith that Spirit has your best and highest welfare in mind – helping you to grow and discover greater levels of love and personality maturity?
“When you become aware that you are moving into a transition of change, also be aware of the synchronicity that accompanies that change. This is a time for new opportunities and many signs will point the way, which will help keep you aligned with your life plan – that ideal life where potentials can be developed for the greatest amount of soul growth for the given abilities and accumulated wisdom gleaned thus far in your life experience. Those with the greatest amount of faith will seize the moment and step into the greatest of opportunities, while those who are more fearful, will let those optimal moments go by and may take a lessor path with more difficulty. These more difficult paths are learning opportunities and there can be much value in them, yet to those who will ‘go with the flow’ and do not resist, but instead embrace it, may find the greatest joy and satisfaction on the other side of the transition.
“Please keep in mind, my friends that all will be well in time and eternity and there is nothing for you to fear. God knows what you need even before you ask for it, therefore ‘seek and you shall find, ask and it shall be given, knock and the door will be opened to you.’ These are not fairytale clichés, but are real ‘cause and effect’ outcomes for those of great faith. Communicate your needs and desires to Spirit, and do not impose expectations as to how they will unfold – go with the flow of opportunities and step into the next destination of your life. When you live your life by faith, you shall have no regrets, for God desires that you have a joyful life filled with love and treasured experiences. If it is not that way now, then look forward to the change that is upon you and embrace it!
“Peace to you,
“The Circle of Seven.”

Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Your Place in This World.”
Received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “It is easy for many among you to feel irrelevant or even redundant in this world. Do not determine your value by comparing yourself to others. You do not need to achieve anything special no one else has achieved in order to claim your individuality. You don’t have to accomplish the goals society considers important in order for you to declare your value. The fact is that you are already unique, and there is no one else like you. Our Father has created you to be who you are and thus achieve the highest expression of your personality by becoming increasingly more like God.
“A better way to assert your value, and feel useful, is to first look where you are and what you can do in your particular situation. Focus your attention on where you are most needed. If you have children, consider that nobody else can be their father or mother, and prepare them for a life rich in spiritual growth. You are the chosen one for that particular task, and even when others could take your place, you can do a great job in this area of your life. Your task could probably be performed by a million other people, but right now you are the one who is there, the only one who can do it the best way possible. Be sure that your Father will always place you right where you are needed, an even when any other human being could take care of the same situation, it will be up to you to take advantage of the opportunity to act wherever you find yourself.
“It is the same for all of you. Problems arise when everybody desires to achieve the same goals, guided by material impulses, the desires of their own ego, and what the majority considers to be a success. A world filled with only poets and singers would collapse. A civilization exclusively peopled by scientists would perish by their use of knowledge without true wisdom. A nation where everybody’s goal is the procurement of money is destined for failure.
“Great men and women in the eyes of our Father are those who face the circumstances in which they find themselves, decide to take responsibility, and take action. The problems in this world are solved by those who encounter them in their path and decide to do something about them. Many times this simple truth goes unnoticed, because those who solve problems and offer solutions for a more spiritual life in their families or communities are seldom recognized by the media.
“You are here because the Father has placed you here. Your decisions of the past have also contributed to your situation of the present, and as you learn to make decisions that are more in harmony with your Father’s will, you will find yourself in situations that are closer to what the Father desires for you. The work for the Kingdom has to be done here and now. Do not wait for the ideal situation to arrive. Do not impose conditions, or force pre-requisites, on yourself for doing what you feel inspired to do. Let yourself be guided and you will find your true purpose, the one not subject to the lies of the world, or the false expectations of society.”

Thuroc the Entertainer.
Subject: “Complacency, Balance and Spiritual Illumination.”
(A more personal message).
Received by George Barnard.
Thuroc: “My short stays in this country are always enjoyed. Since the early years of this century, I have made myself a dear friend on the Australian continent, and traveling here always feels like taking off on a holiday. I present myself here now, and in looking at the receiver, I ask myself if he is awake? Perhaps. Is he asleep? Nah! In meditation? Perhaps. Is he ready? Who knows! This is Thuroc the Entertainer with, however, merely just an ordinary answer or two.
“This evening, first of all, I wish to speak to you about complacency. All over the western world, in particular, we are seeing those who are utterly complacent. They remind me of mice crawling into a trap, gorging themselves on what is laid out for them, to sooner or later chew through the thread that drops a hatch into the shute, and it will be trapped. I see complacency all around me, and it concerns me that so many are already suffering, and not properly cared for. Not many are ready for present tough times to become rather more difficult.
“So many are hungry, having not enough to eat. So many are without housing, having lost their homes. So many cannot afford to pay rent, having no jobs. And it concerns me that it is difficult for them to keep themselves warm. For those that still have a job, or a business, or a trade, I see too much complacency and they should more often reach out with a helping hand. In your caring for others beside yourself, you live a more balanced life. Knowledge, prayers and self-organization is not enough. Do become part of the herd, and share.
“That is my message so far. We will need to finish this when you are sharper. Let me know when you are ready. You need only call out my name. I am Thuroc.
Later: “During mortal life, a decidedly strenuous effort is needed for you to become, and remain, balanced, in what you eat, in what you do, in how you think, and how you feel. A balanced human being – and remember, I did not say advanced – is more real, is stronger, and more capable of dealing with trauma to the system. And this human will deal better with shocks, both positive and negative, than does the Specialist. I need not recite for you any of the many calamities that can befall a human in this irregular world.
“It is in all-round balance that one can absorb the shock of sudden spiritual enlightenment without undue discomfort. It is the Specialist – and you are well aware of the greatly advanced ones, such as Blaise Pascal and Sören Kierkegaard – who pays the price of confusion, turmoil and muddle upon receiving this great gift. One’s ‘undiluted’ attention upon one single subject over all, or on most others, may well portray the birth of fanaticism and may well bring unreality, even insanity, upon receipt of the gift of spiritual illumination.
“For billions of years this universe of universes has existed, and yet it has hardly begun. There is no hurry, ever, but for one to start to progress in this life, and carry on into eternity, always finding balance. This is Thuroc, filling in some blank spaces at your request. Adieu, my friends and occasional students.”

Teacher Prolotheos.
Subject: “On Revelatory Claims.”
Received by Valdir Soares.
Prolotheos: “You have been concerned about recent claims of significant changes to the spiritual order of your planet. I think it is an opportune time for me to express some thoughts that may help you in assessing these revelatory claims.
“Although evolutionary religion has interpreted God’s interaction with man as one of an impositional kind, that is not how God works, but how some religionists perceive it. The will of God will prevail in the Master Universe through increasingly conscious and willing cooperation of His creatures, and through the evolutionary way, not by imposition, or by arbitrary interference. The bestowal of Christ Michael on Urantia gave him all power in this local universe of Nebadon, and he could rightfully exert total authority in any situation. However, as you have been informed, even after receiving this authority from the Father, he waited for the Uversa adjudication of Lucifer and his rebellion. Our Creator Son, like the Father, does not impose his way, but rather he teaches and influences his way by setting examples.
“The Correcting Time, now established on Urantia, is a transitional period on your planet, intended to direct this sphere onto its normal course, after all the disruption caused by Lucifer Rebellion. The Correcting Time period was personally designed and mandated by Christ Michael, who embodies the will of the Father in Nebadon. The Father, once and for all past and future times, said about this Son: ‘In Him I am pleased.’ The Father does not personally command the local universes in which a Creator Son completed his many bestowals. The Father governs the local universes through His Michael Master Sons, who he irrevocable trusts. When a Magisterial Son comes to a sphere, He comes under the authority of this Creator Son. No Divine Son, except the Adams and Eves from the local universes, are ever involved in the political government of any planet. The work of the Magisterial Sons is to augment through their successive missions the spiritual consciousness of the planetary races.
“You have heard the promise of our Creator Son that one day he will come back to Urantia. However, it is a mistake to think that he will come to establish his visible Kingdom on earth, as many have preached for almost two millennia. Christ Michael’s universal government won’t be transferred from Salvington to Urantia. Your planet is indeed much loved by your Creator Son and it did have the distinction of having Him as the Planetary Prince, a position which is now filled by Machiventa Melchizedek, the one-time Sage of Salem. When your Creator Son returns to your world, it will most probably be a ministry visitation, as for that reason he visits many other worlds in his domain. Perhaps he may come in connection with some tribulation events that were prophesied by prophets of old, by himself, and even by his followers.
“It is understandable that Urantians who are familiar with the new written revelations brought about in the previous century, embodied in a book, wonder if and when your planet will be welcoming a Magisterial Mission. It is advisable that when looking for answers regarding this matter, you observe that the Revelators are extremely cautious in advancing information on that subject, since these issues are the exclusive prerogative of your Sovereign, Christ Michael. Will you keep in mind that your receivers of celestial messages are not infallible, and that their own desires and convictions may interfere with genuine transmissions from spiritual channels? Finally, be aware that any change in the spiritual administration of Urantia will first be announced to your Planetary Prince, Machiventa, as he, as well as the Constellations Fathers, will necessarily be involved in the process.
“I am Prolotheos, your celestial tutor.”
Note: On very rare occasions, a Magisterial Son visiting and teaching on an evolutionary planet may later, in addition, be given the task of Ruler of that planet.
