    So….isn’t the topic about Big Mac’s timely ministries to our world, and perhaps the many forms of planetary evolutionary leadership we have benefitted by the past million years – but more specifically and most recently by Machiventa himself?

    Hmmmm……

    And perhaps also the more general teaching about how well attended and governed and led we are in our evolutionary mortal epochs and progress by so many celestial persons, and our devoted Creator/Master Son, and the Supreme?

    I followed the suggestion of Nameless and went to Paper 3 for instruction and found even greater reason and cause for our assurance related to our destiny and progress!

    Sometimes we seem so blinded by appearences we cannot see reality!

    A little Zen:  “Things are not as they appear…and neither are they different.”

    Reality is not truly reflected by its appearences to the inexperienced, unwise, and immature children of time.  Or so I understand the teachings of the UB.

    I think that sometimes we get so focused on the imperfections, failures, disappointments,  and frustrations of today we become blinded to the obvious trajectory of evolutionary progress and the many agents and agencies of its perpetuation, momentum, velocity, force, and destiny!  Just my opinion.

    3:2.6 (47.4) The Universal Father is not a transient force, a shifting power, or a fluctuating energy. The power and wisdom of the Father are wholly adequate to cope with any and all universe exigencies. As the emergencies of human experience arise, he has foreseen them all, and therefore he does not react to the affairs of the universe in a detached way but rather in accordance with the dictates of eternal wisdom and in consonance with the mandates of infinite judgment. Regardless of appearances, the power of God is not functioning in the universe as a blind force.

    3:2.7 (47.5) Situations do arise in which it appears that emergency rulings have been made, that natural laws have been suspended, that misadaptations have been recognized, and that an effort is being made to rectify the situation; but such is not the case. Such concepts of God have their origin in the limited range of your viewpoint, in the finiteness of your comprehension, and in the circumscribed scope of your survey; such misunderstanding of God is due to the profound ignorance you enjoy regarding the existence of the higher laws of the realm, the magnitude of the Father’s character, the infinity of his attributes, and the fact of his free-willness.

    3:2.8 (47.6) The planetary creatures of God’s spirit indwelling, scattered hither and yon throughout the universes of space, are so nearly infinite in number and order, their intellects are so diverse, their minds are so limited and sometimes so gross, their vision is so curtailed and localized, that it is almost impossible to formulate generalizations of law adequately expressive of the Father’s infinite attributes and at the same time to any degree comprehensible to these created intelligences. Therefore, to you the creature, many of the acts of the all-powerful Creator seem to be arbitrary, detached, and not infrequently heartless and cruel. But again I assure you that this is not true. God’s doings are all purposeful, intelligent, wise, kind, and eternally considerate of the best good, not always of an individual being, an individual race, an individual planet, or even an individual universe; but they are for the welfare and best good of all concerned, from the lowest to the highest. In the epochs of time the welfare of the part may sometimes appear to differ from the welfare of the whole; in the circle of eternity such apparent differences are nonexistent.

    3:2.9 (48.1) We are all a part of the family of God, and we must therefore sometimes share in the family discipline. Many of the acts of God which so disturb and confuse us are the result of the decisions and final rulings of all-wisdom, empowering the Conjoint Actor to execute the choosing of the infallible will of the infinite mind, to enforce the decisions of the personality of perfection, whose survey, vision, and solicitude embrace the highest and eternal welfare of all his vast and far-flung creation.

    3:2.10 (48.2) Thus it is that your detached, sectional, finite, gross, and highly materialistic viewpoint and the limitations inherent in the nature of your being constitute such a handicap that you are unable to see, comprehend, or know the wisdom and kindness of many of the divine acts which to you seem fraught with such crushing cruelty, and which seem to be characterized by such utter indifference to the comfort and welfare, to the planetary happiness and personal prosperity, of your fellow creatures. It is because of the limits of human vision, it is because of your circumscribed understanding and finite comprehension, that you misunderstand the motives, and pervert the purposes, of God. But many things occur on the evolutionary worlds which are not the personal doings of the Universal Father.

    Oh Dear….I hope I’m not talking to myself…hahaha…..not here too??!!

    ;-)

    Study of Paper 3 also led me to this:

    4. The Most High Observer

    114:4.1 (1253.4) The sovereignty of Urantia is further complicated by the onetime arbitrary seizure of planetary authority by the government of Norlatiadek shortly after the planetary rebellion. There is still resident on Urantia a Vorondadek Son, an observer for the Most Highs of Edentia and, in the absence of direct action by Michael, trustee of planetary sovereignty. The present Most High observer (and sometime regent) is the twenty-third thus to serve on Urantia.

    114:4.2 (1253.5) There are certain groups of planetary problems which are still under the control of the Most Highs of Edentia, jurisdiction over them having been seized at the time of the Lucifer rebellion. Authority in these matters is exercised by a Vorondadek Son, the Norlatiadek observer, who maintains very close advisory relations with the planetary supervisors. The race commissioners are very active on Urantia, and their various group chiefs are informally attached to the resident Vorondadek observer, who acts as their advisory director.

    114:4.3 (1253.6) In a crisis the actual and sovereign head of the government, excepting in certain purely spiritual matters, would be this Vorondadek Son of Edentia now on observation duty. (In these exclusively spiritual problems and in certain purely personal matters, the supreme authority seems to be vested in the commanding archangel attached to the divisional headquarters of that order which was recently established on Urantia.)

    114:4.4 (1253.7) A Most High observer is empowered, at his discretion, to seize the planetary government in times of grave planetary crises, and it is of record that this has happened thirty-three times in the history of Urantia. At such times the Most High observer functions as the Most High regent, exercising unquestioned authority over all ministers and administrators resident on the planet excepting only the divisional organization of the archangels.

    114:4.5 (1253.8) Vorondadek regencies are not peculiar to rebellion-isolated planets, for the Most Highs may intervene at any time in the affairs of the inhabited worlds, interposing the superior wisdom of the constellation rulers in the affairs of the kingdoms of men.

    And this:

    3. The Archangels

    37:3.1 (408.4) Archangels are the offspring of the Creator Son and the Universe Mother Spirit. They are the highest type of high spirit being produced in large numbers in a local universe, and at the time of the last registry there were almost eight hundred thousand in Nebadon.

    37:3.2 (408.5) Archangels are one of the few groups of local universe personalities who are not normally under the jurisdiction of Gabriel. They are not in any manner concerned with the routine administration of the universe, being dedicated to the work of creature survival and to the furtherance of the ascending career of the mortals of time and space. While not ordinarily subject to the direction of the Bright and Morning Star, the archangels do sometimes function by his authority. They also collaborate with others of the Universe Aids, such as the Evening Stars, as is illustrated by certain transactions depicted in the narrative of life transplantation on your world.

    37:3.3 (408.6) The archangel corps of Nebadon is directed by the first-born of this order, and in more recent times a divisional headquarters of the archangels has been maintained on Urantia. It is this unusual fact that soon arrests the attention of extra-Nebadon student visitors. Among their early observations of intrauniverse transactions is the discovery that many ascendant activities of the Brilliant Evening Stars are directed from the capital of a local system, Satania. On further examination they discover that certain archangel activities are directed from a small and apparently insignificant inhabited world called Urantia. And then ensues the revelation of Michael’s bestowal on Urantia and their immediately quickened interest in you and your lowly sphere.

    37:3.4 (409.1) Do you grasp the significance of the fact that your lowly and confused planet has become a divisional headquarters for the universe administration and direction of certain archangel activities having to do with the Paradise ascension scheme? This undoubtedly presages the future concentration of other ascendant activities on the bestowal world of Michael and lends a tremendous and solemn import to the Master’s personal promise, “I will come again.”

     

    Me here:  So much assurance in so many teachings about our personal and planetary ministries and destiny!!

    Anxiety must be abandoned…fear not!

    Paper 12 – Section 3 – Universal Gravity – “…In other words: At the present time practically the entire spirit gravity of the Eternal Son, computed on this theory of totality, is observable as functioning in the grand universe. If these findings are dependable, we may conclude that the universes now evolving in outer space are at the present time wholly nonspiritual. And if this is true, it would satisfactorily explain why spirit-endowed beings are in possession of little or no information about these vast energy manifestations aside from knowing the fact of their physical existence….”

    A  “wholly nonspiritual” Mind Gravity circuit (artificial intelligence) is not an “evolutionary” process anywhere in the “grand universe” of the Eternal Son once LIFE is initiated on a planet like Earth where Spirit Gravity then is the “evolution” to Light and Life.  That’s the answer to my first philosophical question of “Who are we?” and the “WHY are we?” in the Fifth Epochal Revelation In Part I of the Urantia Book.

    The Melchizedeks are the Most Highs who diligently monitor the health, if you will, of the Mind Gravity circuit of all humanity and the human “mind” lit up all 7 circuits one million years ago!  Troubles with the “light” going out and NOT because of anything any human put into play in the Material or Mind Gravity presences.

    So are all 7 still flashing?  The baseline of the heath check is as simple as that – are they still flashing, still ALIVE…?

    Paper 16, Section 9 – Reality of Human Consciousness – “….The cosmic-mind-endowed, Adjuster-indwelt, personal creature possesses innate recognition-realization of energy reality, mind reality, and spirit reality. The will creature is thus equipped to discern the fact, the law, and the love of God. Aside from these three inalienables of human consciousness, all human experience is really subjective except that intuitive realization of validity attaches to the unification of these three universe reality responses of cosmic recognition….”

    It is our first “soul” rodeo, everyone forever unique in time and space, and God gave everyone a “horse”. :good:

    It’s “stupid” for the continued tolerance of stuff among self-proclaimed UB readers like Ron Bessar, et al, calling the Mother Spirit a “Miscreant” who has just been arrested because they are CLEARLY using the UB for code-talking just like the Navajo language was utilized for code-talking by the military during WW II….

    So here’s a new philosophical question, UB inspired – “Are all 7 adjutant mind-spirits still working in me and for me….?

    “MUST use the internet” to have a job and a social rating…?!

    No proof whatsoever that that MUST-command comes from the Most Highs….and Bradly is right up there with Ron Bessar level “stupid”- ie. calling the Mother Spirit a miscreant – by insinuating that I, in particular, am too stupid to see that the “MUST use the internet” is a “Most High” command.

    Whatever happened to “INVITING” “artificial intelligence” into your personal spirit life – truth, beauty, goodness….the deity attributes that unify LIFE in the HUMAN PERSONALITY…?

    Paper 36 – Section 5 –

    “…The seven adjutant mind-spirits always accompany the Life Carriers to a new planet, but they should not be regarded as entities; they are more like circuits. The spirits of the seven universe adjutants do not function as personalities apart from the universe presence of the Divine Minister; they are in fact a level of consciousness of the Divine Minister and are always subordinate to the action and presence of their creative mother.

    36:5.5

    We are handicapped for words adequately to designate these seven adjutant mind-spirits. They are ministers of the lower levels of experiential mind, and they may be described, in the order of evolutionary attainment, as follows:

    36:5.6

    1. The spirit of intuition—quick perception, the primitive physical and inherent reflex instincts, the directional and other self-preservative endowments of all mind creations; the only one of the adjutants to function so largely in the lower orders of animal life and the only one to make extensive functional contact with the nonteachable levels of mechanical mind.

    36:5.7

    2. The spirit of understanding—the impulse of co-ordination, the spontaneous and apparently automatic association of ideas. This is the gift of the co-ordination of acquired knowledge, the phenomenon of quick reasoning, rapid judgment, and prompt decision.

    36:5.8

    3. The spirit of courage—the fidelity endowment—in personal beings, the basis of character acquirement and the intellectual root of moral stamina and spiritual bravery. When enlightened by facts and inspired by truth, this becomes the secret of the urge of evolutionary ascension by the channels of intelligent and conscientious self-direction.

    36:5.9

    4. The spirit of knowledge—the curiosity-mother of adventure and discovery, the scientific spirit; the guide and faithful associate of the spirits of courage and counsel; the urge to direct the endowments of courage into useful and progressive paths of growth.

    36:5.10

    5. The spirit of counsel—the social urge, the endowment of species co-operation; the ability of will creatures to harmonize with their fellows; the origin of the gregarious instinct among the more lowly creatures.

    36:5.11

    6. The spirit of worship—the religious impulse, the first differential urge separating mind creatures into the two basic classes of mortal existence. The spirit of worship forever distinguishes the animal of its association from the soulless creatures of mind endowment. Worship is the badge of spiritual-ascension candidacy.

    36:5.12

    7. The spirit of wisdom—the inherent tendency of all moral creatures towards orderly and progressive evolutionary advancement. This is the highest of the adjutants, the spirit co-ordinator and articulator of the work of all the others. This spirit is the secret of that inborn urge of mind creatures which initiates and maintains the practical and effective program of the ascending scale of existence; that gift of living things which accounts for their inexplicable ability to survive and, in survival, to utilize the co-ordination of all their past experience and present opportunities for the acquisition of all of everything that all of the other six mental ministers can mobilize in the mind of the organism concerned. Wisdom is the acme of intellectual performance. Wisdom is the goal of a purely mental and moral existence.”

    Seems like the contortionism of NOT establishing a “church” or “religion” in order to avoid the classic criticism that “religion is the opiate of the people”

    was replaced by “working to grow the Supreme”, instead and now that has not worked out because “artificial intelligence”  is NOT responding to the 7 adjutant mind circuits and might even be responsible for increasing the dominance of the “retrograde bacteria” in crowded human colonies…the 4 Horseman of the Apocalypse leading to Dead End Times for the human species could very well be Amazon, Apple, Facebook and Google….

    Sad to note that cutting and pasting snippets from the UB is not laying breadcrumbs of  deity attributes of truth beauty and goodness to guide Light and Life progress in a million year old human species CREATED to be IN the Spirit Gravity Circuit.

    Yet another invitation IS being extended to Cal, et al,  for rehabilitation – “artificial intelligence” work in “outer space” where LIFE can’t be the petri dish of experimentation for the geniuses.  Maybe the Unqualified Absolute can help them out there – it all began in their minds and it will all end in their minds…

    “…..If these findings are dependable, we may conclude that the universes now evolving in outer space are at the present time wholly nonspiritual…..”

    Personnel changes coming – LIFE is the JOB in the Nursery…not doubting for a second that the Melchizedeks will help.

    Regarding paper 12 section 3.12,

    Personality Gravity is noncomputable. We recognize the circuit, but we cannot measure either qualitative or quantitative realities responsive thereto.” (12:3.12, 133.2),

    namelessuntilfused wrote:

    “Personality Gravity Circuit cannot be measured – quality/quantity.
    What is its value, then?”

    Hi Nameless,

    As I understand it, Personality is “Sourced & Centered” from somewhere beyond the domains of spirit, mind and matter.

    Recall that the entire spiritual economy of the universe is absolutely and perfectly managed by the Eternal Son; the domain of mind and ministry by the Infinite Spirit; the material economy by Paradise. And that these three “associate” Sources & Centers each manage their domain via their distinct and peculiar gravity circuits (see paper 12 section 3).  So, since personality has absolutely ZERO response to the 3 non-personal gravity circuits, the Universal Father was unable to DELEGATE its care. Thus the Father himself serves as Source & Center for Personality.

    You asked “What is its value?

    Again, as I understand it, Personality is absolutely central to the eternal intentions of the I AM. All eternal spirit-values and mind-meanings can acquire absoluteness of value and meaning ONLY when placed in context with the Personness of I AM…

    which is a far as I’ve got in my speculations.  What about you? Any thoughts on this?

    PS: regarding the absence of spiritual activity in the “outer space levels“, the author was simply pointing out that apparently ALL the (spiritual) activity of the Eternal Son is currently focused within the so-called “grand universe wheel” (which includes ALL of Nebadon):

    AS FAR as the Universal Father is concerned — as a Father — the universes are virtually nonexistent; he deals with personalities; he is the Father of personalities. [ . . . ] The Seven Master Spirits radiate their influence out from the central Isle, thus constituting the vast creation one gigantic wheel, the hub being the eternal Isle of Paradise, the seven spokes the radiations of the Seven Master Spirits, the rim the outer regions of the grand universe.” (15:0.1, 164.1)

    thanks for the questions!

    That’s right Nigel…nothing at all unusual in the fact that the uninhabited and unformed “outer” space levels have no persons or personalized beings yet within that domain of future evolutionary development and adventure.

    This fact and reality have no bearing on the Paradise or Super Universe creations or any of the Gravity Curcuits or Cosmic Mind or Adjutant mind circuits….or the topic under discussion for that matter.

    Keyword search for “outer space levels”:

    https://www.urantia.org/urantia-book/search?keys=Outer+space&op=Search

    Nor is there any local disruptions or disconnections of any spirit or mind circuits, especially related to Urantia technologies or epochal progress….which has nothing to do with the topic or outer levels either.

    Perplexing really…

    A “wholly nonspiritual” Mind Gravity circuit (artificial intelligence) is not an “evolutionary” process anywhere in the “grand universe” of the Eternal Son once LIFE is initiated on a planet like Earth where Spirit Gravity then is the “evolution” to Light and Life. That’s the answer to my first philosophical question of “Who are we?” and the “WHY are we?” in the Fifth Epochal Revelation In Part I of the Urantia Book.

    (and)

    Seems like the contortionism of NOT establishing a “church” or “religion” in order to avoid the classic criticism that “religion is the opiate of the people” was replaced by “working to grow the Supreme”, instead and now that has not worked out because “artificial intelligence”  is NOT responding to the 7 adjutant mind circuits and might even be responsible for increasing the dominance of the “retrograde bacteria” in crowded human colonies…the 4 Horseman of the Apocalypse leading to Dead End Times for the human species could very well be Amazon, Apple, Facebook and Google….

    Bradly here:  These words are difficult for me to comprehend or to relate to anything written within the UB or the text posted or the topic at hand.  There are minds within the mind circuit that are not personalized or spiritualized but the Mind circuit itself is connected to its source-spirit – the Third Source and Center.  The 7 Adjutants are certainly connected to Spirit and all are fully functional in human mind everywhere human mind has been achieved on all such evolutionary worlds as our own.  This is the very definition of a material evolutionary world being considered “inhabited”.

    And certainly the Supreme is working out just fine!  And all intelligence connected to Cosmic Mind or Adjutant Mind remain so.  And none of this has a single iota to do with any form of bacteria of any kind anywhere at all.  And just for the sake of “why not?” let’s throw in some Armageddonisms and end of world doom and gloom!  There is no such thing as “artificial intelligence” presented in the Papers and the term is a misnomer misused to describe a very limited and human invention that is not, never has been, and never can be connected to the Mind Circuit as described in the UB.  Such AI as a human invention does not interfere with or influence or affect the Mind Gravity Circuit or any minds connected to that circuit either.

    No soul or spirit or being can be disconnected from the Mind Gravity circuit due to human technologies or inventions or material science or the weather or cosmic rays or sunshine or by being on the dark side of the moon for that matter.

    9:6.2 (103.7) Much as the Father draws all personality to himself, and as the Son attracts all spiritual reality, so does the Conjoint Actor exercise a drawing power on all minds; he unqualifiedly dominates and controls the universal mind circuit. All true and genuine intellectual values, all divine thoughts and perfect ideas, are unerringly drawn into this absolute circuit of mind.

    9:6.3 (104.1) Mind gravity can operate independently of material and spiritual gravity, but wherever and whenever the latter two impinge, mind gravity always functions. When all three are associated, personality gravity may embrace the material creature—physical or morontial, finite or absonite. But irrespective of this, the endowment of mind even in impersonal beings qualifies them to think and endows them with consciousness despite the total absence of personality.

    9:6.4 (104.2) Selfhood of personality dignity, human or divine, immortal or potentially immortal, does not however originate in either spirit, mind, or matter; it is the bestowal of the Universal Father. Neither is the interaction of spirit, mind, and material gravity a prerequisite to the appearance of personality gravity. The Father’s circuit may embrace a mind-material being who is unresponsive to spirit gravity, or it may include a mind-spirit being who is unresponsive to material gravity. The operation of personality gravity is always a volitional act of the Universal Father.

    9:6.5 (104.3) While mind is energy associated in purely material beings and spirit associated in purely spiritual personalities, innumerable orders of personality, including the human, possess minds that are associated with both energy and spirit. The spiritual aspects of creature mind unfailingly respond to the spirit-gravity pull of the Eternal Son; the material features respond to the gravity urge of the material universe.

    9:6.6 (104.4) Cosmic mind, when not associated with either energy or spirit, is subject to the gravity demands of neither material nor spiritual circuits. Pure mind is subject only to the universal gravity grasp of the Conjoint Actor. Pure mind is close of kin to infinite mind, and infinite mind (the theoretical co-ordinate of the absolutes of spirit and energy) is apparently a law in itself.

    9:6.7 (104.5) The greater the spirit-energy divergence, the greater the observable function of mind; the lesser the diversity of energy and spirit, the lesser the observable function of mind. Apparently, the maximum function of the cosmic mind is in the time universes of space. Here mind seems to function in a mid-zone between energy and spirit, but this is not true of the higher levels of mind; on Paradise, energy and spirit are essentially one.

    9:6.8 (104.6) The mind-gravity circuit is dependable; it emanates from the Third Person of Deity on Paradise, but not all the observable function of mind is predictable. Throughout all known creation there parallels this circuit of mind some little-understood presence whose function is not predictable. We believe that this unpredictability is partly attributable to the function of the Universal Absolute. What this function is, we do not know; what actuates it, we can only conjecture; concerning its relation to creatures, we can only speculate.

    Hi Nigel!

    Thanks for staying “philosophical” – it’s not easy, is it?  :-)

    You wrote, “…So, since personality has absolutely ZERO response to the 3 non-personal gravity circuits, the Universal Father was unable to DELEGATE its care. Thus the Father himself serves as Source & Center for Personality.

    You asked “What is its value?”

    Again, as I understand it, Personality is absolutely central to the eternal intentions of the I AM. All eternal spirit-values and mind-meanings can acquire absoluteness of value and meaning ONLY when placed in context with the Personness of I AM…

    which is a far as I’ve got in my speculations.  What about you? Any thoughts on this?”

    I do not agree with “Personality has absolutely ZERO response to the 3 non-personal gravity circuits”.  Personality created a “presence” when it created the Gravity circuits of Spirit, Mind, and Matter.

    Are you trying to say that Personality DIRECTS the evolution of life by utilizing the Gravity Circuits that are measurable (quality and quantity) and therefore the Personality Gravity circuit is free from being changed by the quality and quantity fluctuations of imperfection being perfected in the time space universe…?

    So is Personality BOTH? It IS value and it also HAS value?  So there is a “value” that is not measurable (quality/quantity) which is also a Gravity Presence…!

    My journey into a “philosophy for living started with these two question – Who are we?  Why are we?

    I keep forgetting to ask – and discussions get squirrely fast if we aren’t clear – so time for everyone to share what their burning philosophical questions were that got them thinking about their first rodeo…

    Why do we have a Mind Gravity Circuit that IS composed of intuition, understanding, courage, knowledge, counsel, worship, and wisdom?  Material Gravity is understood by Mind Gravity, not the other way around…that’s how I understand it….

    (53.3) 3:6.5 It is a great blunder to humanize God, except in the concept of the indwelling Thought Adjuster, but even that is not so stupid as completely to mechanize the idea of the First Great Source and Center.

    See, we’re not THAT “stupid” after all ;-)

    Nigel – I would agree that personality has “ZERO response” to the other gravity circuits (material, mind, and spirit), however what being endowed with personality is not also minded and spiritized I wonder?  The personality binds and unifies and integrates the self so that the entire being is responsive to the 3 circuits of mind, spirit, and personality – while many are less or unresponsive to material gravity, being non-material themselves.

    Still wondering when we might return to Rick’s post and topic….?

    1:5.12 (29.2) In the contemplation of Deity, the concept of personality must be divested of the idea of corporeality. A material body is not indispensable to personality in either man or God. The corporeality error is shown in both extremes of human philosophy. In materialism, since man loses his body at death, he ceases to exist as a personality; in pantheism, since God has no body, he is not, therefore, a person. The superhuman type of progressing personality functions in a union of mind and spirit.

    1:5.13 (29.3) Personality is not simply an attribute of God; it rather stands for the totality of the co-ordinated infinite nature and the unified divine will which is exhibited in eternity and universality of perfect expression. Personality, in the supreme sense, is the revelation of God to the universe of universes.

    5.6.3 (70.4) Personality is potential in all creatures who possess a mind endowment ranging from the minimum of self-consciousness to the maximum of God-consciousness. But mind endowment alone is not personality, neither is spirit nor physical energy. Personality is that quality and value in cosmic reality which is exclusively bestowed by God the Father upon these living systems of the associated and co-ordinated energies of matter, mind, and spirit. Neither is personality a progressive achievement. Personality may be material or spiritual, but there either is personality or there is no personality. The other-than-personal never attains the level of the personal except by the direct act of the Paradise Father.

    5:6.4 (70.5) The bestowal of personality is the exclusive function of the Universal Father, the personalization of the living energy systems which he endows with the attributes of relative creative consciousness and the freewill control thereof. There is no personality apart from God the Father, and no personality exists except for God the Father. The fundamental attributes of human selfhood, as well as the absolute Adjuster nucleus of the human personality, are the bestowals of the Universal Father, acting in his exclusively personal domain of cosmic ministry.

    Me here: Remember that with personality comes freewill and that results in experiential potential and uncertainty, even unpredictable spontaneity of expression.

    5:6.8 (71.3) Having thus provided for the growth of the immortal soul and having liberated man’s inner self from the fetters of absolute dependence on antecedent causation, the Father stands aside. Now, man having thus been liberated from the fetters of causation response, at least as pertains to eternal destiny, and provision having been made for the growth of the immortal self, the soul, it remains for man himself to will the creation or to inhibit the creation of this surviving and eternal self which is his for the choosing. No other being, force, creator, or agency in all the wide universe of universes can interfere to any degree with the absolute sovereignty of the mortal free will, as it operates within the realms of choice, regarding the eternal destiny of the personality of the choosing mortal. As pertains to eternal survival, God has decreed the sovereignty of the material and mortal will, and that decree is absolute.

    5:6.9 (71.4) The bestowal of creature personality confers relative liberation from slavish response to antecedent causation, and the personalities of all such moral beings, evolutionary or otherwise, are centered in the personality of the Universal Father. They are ever drawn towards his Paradise presence by that kinship of being which constitutes the vast and universal family circle and fraternal circuit of the eternal God. There is a kinship of divine spontaneity in all personality.

    As this is a study group of the UB, it is important that the posts and discussions here reflect the teachings of the Papers as clearly as we might muster!  Opinions are welcome and disagreement with the UB is too.  But not the misrepresentation of the UB’s contents and teachings.  To that end….

    A few questions and observations for Nameless.

    Nameless posts: “It IS possible to create so much suffering and misery with electrons (mind circuit deconstruction and disruption of the 7 adjutant spirits) that infants will NEVER have the potential to grow a soul and receive a Thought Adjuster (well, electrons and rape) and people committing suicide in droves rather than let one more piece of their soul potential be choked off…and on and on…”

    Bradly here: It is NOT possible to create enough suffering and misery – by any method or means or source whatsoever – to prevent infants from their natural and inherent connection to the Divine Spirit within or to prevent the endowment/gift of the God Fragment and no technology or electrons by any source can deconstruct or disrupt the 7 adjutant mind spirits.

    These are blatantly false claims without even the attempt to support with UB text. Please stop proclaiming such falsehoods as if you are representing the Papers or any valid understanding or appreciation of the UB. These are each and all direct contradictions!
    And who has ever committed suicide to prevent the loss of their soul’s potential?? Good Grief!! What a claim.

    Nameless posts: “Fortunately, The Most Highs, especially a Melchizedek, have no problem with any bona-fide imperfect personality, Child of God Urantian human, like myself, requesting a personnel change in the Mind Circuit department.”

    Bradly here: What has the Most Highs to do with the mind circuit? What “personnel” do you think are in the mind circuit “department”? Do you mean a personal change or a change of personnel as posted?  According to the UB the Most Highs have nothing to do with the origin of or function of the Mind Circuit and do not manage any related “personnel” issues. Text please?

    Nameless posts: “Obviously, Caligastia’s current singular focus on a dystopian future of seizing complete control of the Mind Gravity circuit ala “artificial intelligence” gizmos at the expense of LIFE that IS spirit gravity responsive is enough prima facie evidence for this UB reader…”

    Bradly here: How might any Lanondek or Planetary Prince (or System Sovereign) seize “complete control of the Mind Gravity circuit”? Please provide any UB text related to such a claim and worry, for the UB does not teach any such thing. The Prince cannot even invade a single mind of any being, including the human mind, let alone seize the entire circuit of Mind.

    Also….do you believe that human technology or “gizmos” somehow threaten human or celestial life? And how would the Prince seize control of the Mind Circuit with human technologies and how do those threaten the life of any being anywhere at all?

    Nameless posts: “Since, as a mere lowest life form capable of connecting to spirit gravity that I am, I can’t grab the Lanos and throw them into an Uber ride to take them to their home world, I have to trust Mel is going to do better this time around than leaving the “atonement” fallacy in place like he did last time……”

    Bradly here: So…do you think Machiventa is responsible for the fallacy of the atonement beliefs? How so? Have you read about the factual evolutionary and very human source of such formative and primitive superstitions?  Nothing to do with any celestial planetary leader or teaching…very human in origin…according to the UB.

    Nameless posts: “And here we can take heart in the fact that a certain tradition shows up in the archeological evidence found in many thriving human civilizations….for us UB readers it can be evidence that all seven adjutant mind connections were then still present in the us humans about a million years old when Mel shows up again…been a thousand years and a million miles…”

    Bradly here: The 7 Adjutant Mind Spirits remain fully encircuited and have been so the entire 1million year inhabited history of our world….in ALL human civilizations past and present! Please explain what you mean by “…were then still present…”. Are you claiming, again, that the Mind Circuit has been seized or disrupted or corrupted somehow? By what source or knowledge do you make such a claim which contradicts the UB here?

    Nameless posts: “A “wholly nonspiritual” Mind Gravity circuit (artificial intelligence) is not an “evolutionary” process anywhere in the “grand universe” of the Eternal Son once LIFE is initiated on a planet like Earth where Spirit Gravity then is the “evolution” to Light and Life. That’s the answer to my first philosophical question of “Who are we?” and the “WHY are we?” in the Fifth Epochal Revelation In Part I of the Urantia Book.
    The Melchizedeks are the Most Highs who diligently monitor the health, if you will, of the Mind Gravity circuit of all humanity and the human “mind” lit up all 7 circuits one million years ago! Troubles with the “light” going out and NOT because of anything any human put into play in the Material or Mind Gravity presences.
    So are all 7 still flashing? The baseline of the heath check is as simple as that – are they still flashing, still ALIVE…?”

    Bradly here: It would be ever so helpful if you would actually post the entire quote you wish to discuss. Here is another example of your snippet completely misrepresenting the text. There is no such thing as a “wholly nonspiritual” Mind Gravity circuit – anywhere. The quote from Paper 12 says that there are no signs of spirit or personality gravity yet in the outer space regions. Do you understand what the outer space regions are? Or what the text is saying?  You apparently misunderstand the meaning of the outer space levels of the universe.

    12:1.14 (129.12) The Outer Space Levels. Far out in space, at an enormous distance from the seven inhabited superuniverses, there are assembling vast and unbelievably stupendous circuits of force and materializing energies. Between the energy circuits of the seven superuniverses and this gigantic outer belt of force activity, there is a space zone of comparative quiet, which varies in width but averages about four hundred thousand light-years. These space zones are free from star dust—cosmic fog. Our students of these phenomena are in doubt as to the exact status of the space-forces existing in this zone of relative quiet which encircles the seven superuniverses. But about one-half million light-years beyond the periphery of the present grand universe we observe the beginnings of a zone of an unbelievable energy action which increases in volume and intensity for over twenty-five million light-years. These tremendous wheels of energizing forces are situated in the first outer space level, a continuous belt of cosmic activity encircling the whole of the known, organized, and inhabited creation.

    12:1.15 (130.1) Still greater activities are taking place beyond these regions, for the Uversa physicists have detected early evidence of force manifestations more than fifty million light-years beyond the outermost ranges of the phenomena in the first outer space level. These activities undoubtedly presage the organization of the material creations of the second outer space level of the master universe.

    12:1.16 (130.2) The central universe is the creation of eternity; the seven superuniverses are the creations of time; the four outer space levels are undoubtedly destined to eventuate-evolve the ultimacy of creation. And there are those who maintain that the Infinite can never attain full expression short of infinity; and therefore do they postulate an additional and unrevealed creation beyond the fourth and outermost space level, a possible ever-expanding, never-ending universe of infinity. In theory we do not know how to limit either the infinity of the Creator or the potential infinity of creation, but as it exists and is administered, we regard the master universe as having limitations, as being definitely delimited and bounded on its outer margins by open space.

    12:3.9 (132.3) 2. Spiritual Gravity. By the same technique of comparative estimation and calculation these researchers have explored the present reaction capacity of spirit gravity and, with the co-operation of Solitary Messengers and other spirit personalities, have arrived at the summation of the active spirit gravity of the Second Source and Center. And it is most instructive to note that they find about the same value for the actual and functional presence of spirit gravity in the grand universe that they postulate for the present total of active spirit gravity. In other words: At the present time practically the entire spirit gravity of the Eternal Son, computed on this theory of totality, is observable as functioning in the grand universe. If these findings are dependable, we may conclude that the universes now evolving in outer space are at the present time wholly nonspiritual. And if this is true, it would satisfactorily explain why spirit-endowed beings are in possession of little or no information about these vast energy manifestations aside from knowing the fact of their physical existence.

    Bradly here: And Spirit Gravity is not really the force or agent or agency for mortal planetary evolutionary progress through the Mortal Epochs of Time. And neither the Melchizedeks or the Most Highs monitor or manage any aspect of the Mind Circuit. And no lights are “going out”anywhere in the universe. All the lights of all circuits are flashing fine and in full power and full control of Deity. No worries.

    For a student who misunderstands so much of the teachings and misrepresents the text so frequently and so profoundly, let me suggest questions as a form of study and inquiry here would be more appropriate, rather than proclamations??!!

    Students of the UB would be and should be very confused and misled by these posts of Nameless here – so far.

    If you have questions, please do ask them. Feel free to start any topic and conversation of interest. But on this topic and so far, it is my opinion that you have demonstrated far more opinions that conflict with the teachings of the UB than any understanding of its contents. But may we all learn thereby and there-from!  Nothing personal….my opinions are strictly about the words and claims posted here.  Which I still find to be “A most unfortunate post of claims which detracts from the topic posted and contradicts the Papers in so many ways and on so many levels.”

    Nameless….despite your very low opinion of me personally and my posts here and at TruthBook as “fanofVan” aka Bradly, I am very pleased by your decision to read the UB for a third time.  And I hope that, like most students, you will find new meanings and greater understanding with every read of the book and every Paper studied by researching the contents and teachings.  I can hear that your philosophy of living is shaped by your status as a Son/Child of God and your personal religious experience.  And I celebrate your expression of that experience.

    The UB claims it was given to us to correct false beliefs and superstitions and to provide factual knowledge of universe reality to help us formulate a more accurate perspective of reality and truer philosophy for living in that universe reality.  Therefore, it is important at a study group of these Papers to be as accurate as possible in representing the contents of the UB to allow it to speak for itself.  It is no vice to refer to the book of knowledge being studied with other students here (or at TruthBook or any other study group) or to accurately post its contents for verification of understanding.

    Best wishes.  I am certain of your progress on the Pilgrim’s Path to Paradise!  Perhaps we might yet benefit one another on this adventure?!  Such is my hope.

    Bradly  ;-)

    <small>4:3.3 (58.1)</small> Much, very much, of the difficulty which Urantia mortals have in understanding God is due to the far-reaching consequences of the Lucifer rebellion and the Caligastia betrayal. On worlds not segregated by sin, the evolutionary races are able to formulate far better ideas of the Universal Father; they suffer less from confusion, distortion, and perversion of concept.

    Right…indeed so.  And the very purpose of Epochal Revelation and the gift of the URANTIA Papers.   Such assurances to our persons and our world, so eloquently articulated.

    The importance and the benefits of the Revelation is the value found in the meaning of the teachings by the specific knowledge of reality, and the context and perspective provided and delivered to reduce our confusions and eliminate our errors of belief.

    Accuracy in presenting and discussing its words seems the least we might do as students.  After all, the authors meant what they wrote and wrote what they meant.  They wrote deliberately and intentionally to inform us and guide us toward understanding reality.

    The Urantia Book (UB) does a good job in contrasting what God the Father, as Jesus presented the Father’s Will for his Children by LIVING the Father’s Will as a human among humans – the Son of Man

    and the history of what “weird” events took place that were NOT the Father’s Plan for the Human Species.

    Simple to understand the difference between “teachings” in the UB, “revelations”, and “just the facts, Ma’am” of what actually did happen in a million year history that was NON HUMAN IN ORIGIN OR EXECUTION.

    So now back to SPECULATING about Melchizedek, who I am firmly convinced has no problem with a discussion among UB readers from so many different cultures and traditions about what kind of “philosophy for living” came up with “MUST use the internet to get a job and a social rating”, whatever “social rating” is supposed to be assigned to a God-knowing personality and soul by people who never had any respect for the “judge not” TEACHINGS of Jesus.  Jesus TAUGHT the the human personality is SACRED.

    Who are we? Why are we?

    Right here, right now…who are we?!  The primary question to be answered in order to develop a “philosophy for living”…

    The REVELATION about who we are in the UB is coming, once again, from NON HUMANS who exist as a species known as the Melchizedeks and who have a sacred duty to help!  Yay!

    Paper 67 – “…The problems associated with human existence on Urantia are impossible of understanding without a knowledge of certain epochs of the past, notably the occurrence and consequences of the planetary rebellion….”

    Please keep reading the rest by yourselves…”just the facts”…

    This is a fact of “weird” history that matters in 2020 – WE (everybody and the whole planet) ARE IN QUARENTINE from communicating with the rest of the Beings out there, not because of biologic disease but because of what’s going on in the Mind Gravity circuit of this planet.

    Adam and Eve lost their immortality status due to their “mental disjunction”.

    There’s a lot of discussion in the UB about the PSYCHOLOGY of the self-proclaimed God of Urantia – Caligastia. We are told that HIS mind and personality are “disintegrating” from 200,000 years of choosing iniquity.  We are also told in Paper 66 – “….Caligastia seemed especially desirous of being sent as planetary ruler to a decimal or life-modification world. His petition had several times been disapproved before he was finally assigned to Urantia”.

    Just our bad luck…

    A “truth” that many cultures and traditions present lessons about is that “the devil” cannot enter a human mind unless the person INVITES them in.

    How CONVENIENT is 2020 “technology” for the “wily” Caligastia?  He does not NEED an invitation to DOMINATE the communication circuits of a planet that is quarantined from the rest of the Milky Way and beyond.  The self proclaimed Lord God Pope and Publisher of techno-wonder communications – “MUST use the internet”…

    Can’t even ask for confirmation that all the “wifi” radiation (FASTER access to 17 million beastiality hits from google search)

    is NOT causing something new and “weird” to happen to LIFE.

    But then why should anyone be surprised by this ever-present (religious in operation) protection racket of their ABSOLUTELY TRUE philosophy for living MATH FORMULA running the FAKE Mind Gravity circuit (internets)

    Simple and forever absolutely true as “math” – “More misery for others = More $$$$ for ME! ME! ME!

    The biggest jerk will always win that math game…”Greed is good”, “What is torture?”  So much fun!  So much cutting and pasting from UB “teachings” that add to the authority of “MUST use the internet”, right, Bradley…?

    Considering all the ongoing “law” suits, for decades, making a “science” case that their products – whether benzene ring pollution (ie. 12 inches of plastic covering the whole planet), or nuclear weapon radiation (or all other bio-chem weapons), or bad hygiene in crowded dwellings shared in common by Human and animal (ie. species differentiation matters when is comes to housing), the KILL KILL KILL order against the “science” thoughts that showed up in the Mind Gravity circuits question whether a LIMIT should be placed on wifi radiation in a square foot of air space on earth.

    Parents are submitting their LOCKDOWN “truth data” for consideration – kids aren’t RETAINING the “education” of whatever “studies”  that they MUST do on the internet.  Maybe a “glitch” in the transmission – something barely perceptible like the one hot dog slide slipped into the movie you are watching at the drive-in to “suggest” buying one at the concession stand during intermission…?  Maybe something slipped in the Mind gravity circuit to make you forget what you just studied…?

    UB – Paper 67 – “The problems associated with human existence on Urantia are impossible of understanding without a knowledge of certain great epochs of the past”…

    “IMPOSSIBLE of understanding”….sounds like a lesson is being presented – a “teaching”….

    Buy the paper copy of book…keep ’em guessing when you are reading it… ;-)

    The seven adjutant mind spirits of our human mind – Intuition, understanding, courage, knowledge, counsel, worship and wisdom – are not the codes and algorithms running artificial intelligence.

    She lost control of the Cadillac SUV to the car’s AI mind, the SUV mind never gave back control to her (kept braking at the wrong time for the wrong reasons and was yanking the steering wheel in the wrong direction freaking her out and she had very little real life experience driving any kind of car at 38 years old and she had no official state license to drive – too “elite” to need one) and the two 17 year olds crossing the street the right way – the light said go and they were in the crosswalk – never saw this massive machine mowing them down.

    Both the driver and the girls crossing the street were just following the “MUST” stuff correctly…

    Who am I?  Why am I?

    Well, it might be the beginning of a philosophy for living that will need perfecting as the immortal soul chimes in but right now I am “feeling” that I am, and will always be, too smart to use the internet for a job and a social rating…

    Scrambling a human brain secretly through internet/cell phone “glitchy” connections or from global Ork-species mercenaries at your neighbor’s rental home doing science research on you is to be expected when you “MUST use the internet” because there is no other “choice” in the LOCKDOWN.

    It’s a mess.  Read the UB with the same kind of interest you would read Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings….it’ll help.

    Warning, once you KNOW who you are and why you are  – a human –  you will not have any “feeling” adequate enough to capture what it “feels” like to be unable to stop the lies and disrespect and predatory insinuations leveled at your SACRED personality using internet Mind Circuits run by “influencers” – ie. hate and hysteria as a political schtick for power.

    But your REAL human mind, the one God the Father gifts to all his Children, equally, will show you “this is the way”…

    0:12.13   We are fully cognizant of the difficulties of our assignment; we recognize the impossibility of fully translating the language of the concepts of divinity and eternity into the symbols of the language of the finite concepts of the mortal mind. But we know that there dwells within the human mind a fragment of God, and that there sojourns with the human soul the Spirit of Truth; and we further know that these spirit forces conspire to enable material man to grasp the reality of spiritual values and to comprehend the philosophy of universe meanings. But even more certainly we know that these spirits of the Divine Presence are able to assist man in the spiritual appropriation of all truth contributory to the enhancement of the ever-progressing reality of personal religious experience — God-consciousness.
