Note from the Nashville group:

On behalf of all of us here in Nashville, I want to thank all

of you who took the time and made the trip out here to make

our conference a success. These transcripts are not a complete

record of all that took place here, some tapes were lost or

didn't record clearly. I apologize to those who transmitted

and who don't find their record here. I hope that these

transcripts will bring back fond memories of the few days that

you spent with us and that you all have a happy holiday

season.

Until we meet again, as Ham would say, our love and prayers

are with you.

-Rebecca

Group Session: Nashville TM Conference

Note: TR (S) was very tired after a long plane flight to the

conference.

OLFANA: Greetings to all in this room. (Smiling) I express,

here, my own level of energy, and will hope that S can stay

with me as I offer myself to you as one of your Teachers. I am

the Teacher Olfana, and I sense a strong familiarity with some

of you in this room, and others I am just now coming to know.

I would like to emphasize this point. It was recently

discussed upon the E-mail list that you share, ìWhat type of

connection is made, now, between yourselves and those of us

who represent the celestial outreach of this Teaching

Mission?î We connect with all of you. You are all bound

together with us in this connection of understanding and

affection. (Gesturing to a person seated close to the TR) I

sense you, now. I sense you, over in the corner. I am aware of

the overall tone, I would say, of those who are, now, in the

room. At the same time, I would encourage you who are seated

in the room to feel this sense of a direct connection made,

now, with me. It is, indeed, appropriate, and hopefully a

comfortable thought to recognize that we Teachers are, indeed,

aware, to a great degree, of the thought processes of all of

you in this room, now. You are our testing ground, as it were,

and each one of you is precious to us in this process. We wish

to relate to as many people as there are who choose to join

with us, now, in this coming together of our hearts and minds,

in our desire to improve and uplift the spiritual integrity of

the planet.

Having made this statement, is there any comment or question

anyone now has in the audience regarding this topic?

Student: Greetings, Olfana. I'm one of the new ones that I

don't think you know yet. What you said was really curious to

me. I was curious if you could hear each time that we thanked

one of you for the wonderful, wonderful help we receive?

OLFANA: We are, indeed, sensitive to the vibratory patterns

which emanate from your beings. You are not merely the spoken

words that are heard within the room to our own reception

abilities. We sense you as an integrated and complete

vibratory pattern which expresses the physical compartment

which houses this precious soul which is the most essential

view that we, now,reach toward. And, indeed, this current of

thankfulness, gratitude, appreciation for the connection that

is made, this sense of companionship which we offer, now, in

our teachings, this sings from your souls. And we hear it with

great pleasure.

Student: I'm glad.

OLFANA: You will all in your own eternal destinies come to

experience another being in this most beautiful and complete

manner. Think, now, of so much that the Urantia Book discusses

of the quality of connection that is made in this sense of how

God brings us together. We are joined in so Many marvelous and

responsive ways. We reflect each other's energy. We express

this God Current which, indeed, fills each one of us. We bond

in a community of creation and love and respect. All of these

are patterns, potentials placed within us, by the Father with

design. And to the degree that you feel strongly moved in this

relationship which begins to form between you and your

Teachers, I encourage you to savor and honor the integrity of

this strong emotion. We wish you to recognize that this level

of the sense of the brotherhood is what we have come to

display. (Strongly moved) We love you just as you are. You are

precious in the Father's eyes, and we are here to help you to

discover this about yourselves.

Student: Olfana? I think that is how you say your name.

OLFANA: Yes.

Student: (Joking) I'm just amazed at how you're flinging those

arms of S's around without hitting that microphone.

OLFANA: (Smiling) I am most appreciative that she took that

nap in the corner. This allowed me something more to work with

in her being.

Student: Thank you. I have a question regarding our E-mail

communications, and it's becoming quite a family-oriented

meeting room.

OLFANA: Yes!

Student: Do you have any advice for the Teaching Mission's

spread, and teaching and reaching out to those who do not have

Teaching Mission groups in their local area, or the use of the

e-mails, so that it could be posted for all to read?

OLFANA: I would be happy to have whatever statement I now make

reproduced upon your lists. I enjoy, very much, the

communications that occur there, and at one point, S made the

joking comment that she felt the Teachers were, indeed, signed

on with their own E-mail addresses--<Olfana@vibration.com>,

<Machiventa@administration.edu>, etc.--and most certainly, S

struck a note of truth in this. Anytime you are engaged in

these communications, discussions, and discoveries of the ways

in which you perceive us, what you wish to learn from us, what

you are learning from us; this is the heart of the matter for

us as Teachers. And we study you all vigorously in those

moments. Do not doubt that when you phone each other, we are

conference calling in those moments, that the letters you

write to each other are shared by us. The poems and personal

journals that you write of your interest and ongoing research

into this process, we are privy to these, my dear students.

(Smiling) I hope you are comfortable with this thought because

it is unavoidable. We are there with you, and we intend to

remain so. I would say one brief point regarding this. We are

not Peeping Toms. We do not wish to invade your own territory

or personal zone, and therefore if, indeed, you ever choose

not to have us observing or watching you, simply think the

thought, I wish my privacy, now. And you'll have it, I

guarantee you.

But, back to this other point made about the E-mail lists. We

are intensely pleased, overjoyed, I would say, to see the ways

in which you have caught the ball and run with it yourself.

You do not need us handholding you at each step in this

process. I would hope that you can understand that this

is one of the gifts you have been given by being born a

Urantian. Not much handholding occurs on this planet. Is that

not true? As a species, you would have died out long ago, my

dear ones, if you had not had such an inner desire and urge

for self-survival, and a creative response to the challenge of

the moment. This is a great gift in the Urantian nature, and

we are watching it manifest itself in your own interactions

with us in this Teaching Mission. You know how to take this

ball and run with it. Sometimes, we Teachers have a bit of

trouble keeping up with you. Oh, my goodness! Where are they

going, now? In what direction is this about to take off? We

respond to this with joy. But, indeed, you present some

challenges for us, also.

And in this regard, please remember, this is a co-creative

process. We are here as Teachers, but certainly, we are still

students of the Vast Creation of God. And you are our

textbook. And we are discovering much that we did not

necessarily anticipate in your responses. I hope you can

understand, in this regard also, what a remarkable leader

Prince Machiventa is. That on the one hand, he has his sense

of the campaign, he knows what he's about in his plans, and

his orchestration of our activities, and yet, he rides on the

waters of the experimentation of this planet, as do the rest

of us. We are to remain flexible. This is a primary directive

from our prince. We are to remain flexible in our responses

and activities and efforts of outreach with you.

Therefore, these E-mail lists are something of an unplanned,

but greatly appreciated, manifestation of your own ability to

take this ball and run with it. And we watch the lists with

great interest. Indeed, those of you who feel The list is my

group, now. This is where I go for the main sense of what is

about with this Teaching Mission. We welcome you there! We are

certainly there with you. We want you to feel affiliated with

this broad sense of the outreach and connection that can occur

with these lists. And we hope that you can, indeed, see that

this potential for a sense of strong caring and bondedness,

this brotherhood, sisterhood--S coined a word which we

enjoy--this familyhood of God's children coming together,

exposing themselves, expressing their thoughts, their

concerns, with the trust that they will be heard with

appreciation and respect, not with a desire for condescension

or attack but, I am listening. Please speak to me. We relish

the way in which you are sensing this growing familyhood on

the lists. And we feel as much a part of these groups as you

do.

Student: Thank you, Olfana.

OLFANA: You are most welcome.

Student: And I also want to thank Allene Vick's newsletter,

which also unites our family so much.

OLFANA: Most certainly. And I do not in any way mean to slight

any of these other efforts of outreach. I choose not to make a

complete laundry list, now, only because, again, this effort

can tax S, and I'm holding her up, as it were, as best I can,

now. But, you all know of your own efforts in this attempt to

do this outreach. All those ways in which you offer our words

to a broader group of your brothers and sisters that you hope

will hear these words with a sense of joy, anticipation,

expectation, and even a sense of relief. My God! This is there

for me. This matters for the planet. If we can stir this in

your hearts, then we are doing the job we have come to do. Is

there any further question? Or should we draw this to a close

because I can sense all of you, now, with this sense of

lassitude. The hour grows late, and we have much to do, come

tomorrow. How would you like to close? Is there a further

question, or should we now, perhaps, close with a prayer? What

is your choice?

Group: Prayer.

OLFANA: Very well. I will stay, now, with this theme of

communication and communion:

Our Dear Father,

Who knows us so well,

Help us to come to understand

The beauty that you see in each of us.

Help us to learn the true meaning

Of loving each other's hearts,

Each other's souls,

Each other's full beings.

Give us the words, Father,

To express our truest hopes,

Our greatest dreams,

Our highest desires.

Give us the ears to hear

When our brothers and sisters

Speak to us of these same things.

Lead us, Father,

In a joining together of our beings

Into the most beautiful and perfect plan

Which truly expresses

Your Will for us in our lives. Amen.

If you will all sit quietly for just a moment, I am the voice

for this, but there are many Teachers contributing, now. S is

feeling immensely strong vibrations in her being. Please, all

of you, take this in. Absorb this connection. We are reaching

to you with our hearts. Feel it, now. Feel us reaching to you.

And now, my dear ones, we Teachers wish each of you a

comfortable and blessed night of restful sleep. Namaste.

THE MISSION: A PERSONAL EXPERIENCE

Hal Bynum

I didn't git a whole lot of schoolhousin' an I habn' never

been blessed, or cursed, with a whole lot of vision, an I

never could divine underground water with a forked stick, or

predict long-term trends, or prophesy, or talk in tongues, or

read chicken guts, or tea leaves or handle snakes without

gittin' bit. I'm just a common ol, everyday kind of a feller

that grew up out in the country, or maybe didn't grow up, and

I'm the last one to try to make a bunch of profound

pronouncements about this mission. About the only way I can be

of any use to you today, is if I tell you about my personal

experience with this teaching mission and what it's done to me

- and for me.

I was smokin' dope with a jazz musician about twenty five

years ago, tellin' him about this spiritual experience I'd had

recently which had begun what I could only refer to as "being

born again". That was not a phrase I had ever cared for,

having been an atheist most of my life, but it was the only

term that seemed to fit the weird metamorphosis that was

slinging me around at the time. He listened patiently and then

said, "I think you're ready for the Urantia Book."

I was open and I was searching, so when he brought me the

book, I read it. I immediately believed it, I never doubted it

and I began spreadin' it like a wild man. The seraphim must

have made it work because I was all ego and crazy-eyed

preacher, grabbin' people by the front of their shirts an'

makin' em listen. Clumsy efforts that work, because it's the

Father's will that they work. The effort is ours, the results

belong to the Supreme - Take a load off Annie.

However! I was a drunk and a dope fiend and I couldn't grow

until I gave up my pursuit of unreality. This took around

twenty years of delving deeper into the secrets of the

universe and God's great reality on the one hand, and delving

deeper into the unreality that is the torturous life of a

person trying to escape from adult responsibilities through

the consumption of alcohol and other drugs. I once heard a

recovering alcoholic refer to this condition as, "having a

mind full of God and a belly full of booze".

Next January it will be eight years since that phase of my

life (or non-life) ended. I was about a week from dying when,

sometime between midnight and dawn, I spent three hours

grappling with the decision of whether I wanted to live or

not. My celestial artisan, Daphne, has since told me "not

withstanding the great importance of your eternal relationship

with Rebecca, the most important person in your life will

always be your son, Christopher. He saved your soul."

I didn't want to live, but I couldn't leave a mess like that

for him to deal with all his life. That tipped the scales and

after the struggle was over, and I lay in bed soaked with

sweat and exhausted, inside my head I heard the words, "Now -

feed my sheep."

About a year and a half later, I was sitting on the floor in

Rebecca's basement in Salt Lake City, as Ham said, "Long have

I watched you, my son." Less than a year after that, Rebecca

and I were married and working with my beloved teacher, Ian,

and Daphne, the artisan who has been with me since I was an

infant, as we put together an album which will be released on

Warner Brothers Records the fifteenth of September. Ham is

Rebecca's teacher and as he has said, "a father to Rebecca,"

and so I guess he's my father-in-law. He is the teacher of our

Sunday night meetings and a voice of wisdom to many people who

recieve his messages on the internet, thanks to David

Schlundt.

Nearly all of my life, I've been totally preoccupied with my

own comfort, trying to arrange things to where I could relax

and be comfortable. Rich men keep grabbing money and buying

laws to feed ravenous egos in an attempt to exalt themselves

and exclude others, hoping it will eventually bring them

comfort. Hitler killed millions of people in an attempt to

control the world. He was trying to get comfortable enough to

sleep at night. His father had beat him and scared him when he

was a child.

What we're really searching for is peace, but peace comes from

inside, not from a shrewd and relentless adjustment and

manipulation of outer circumstance. Whatever the drug, whether

it's alcohol, pills, powder, smoke or sex or fame, it will not

and cannot bring peace. Only conformity to the cosmos, a

whole-hearted attempt to allign oneself with the trend and the

purpose of the Universe, brings peace, the inner peace that

allows happiness and growth of the soul.

This great Universal purpose is the unending, untiring,

unfettered bestowal of Love. Love, in the simplest of terms is

unselfishness. Love is giving, Love is sharing. The bestowal

of Love creates that perfect order which so-called

civilization has always promised, but has never delivered into

the hands of frightened mankind. Big business craves good

order which is the necessary climate for the efficient

accumulation of wealth. On every evlolutionary planet there is

a phase referred to as the industrial age and the great

disease of the industrial age is materialism.

A planet is a platform which provides man with a place to

stand, a brief opportunity to get a glimpse of life and a

taste of life, as he peers nearsightedly out into the vast

unfathomable universe, and begins to make the decision "to be

or not to be". The decision to Love God and to embrace an

eternity of endless striving and serving in order to become

more and more like that perfect personality who is the source

of all things that exist or will ever exist.

Lucifer became enamored of himself and chose a path of

cleverness and pretense and caused the spiritual circuits to

be temporarily shut off. As a result, our planet was one of

those cast into darkness and isolation. If you put a

tournequet on your upper arm and leave it long enough, the

lower arm and the hand will rot. Mankind is confused,

befuddled and deathly afraid because of 200,000 years of

deprivation we might refer to as a shortage of God. I have

never met anyone on this planet who did not have low

self-esteem. The myriad methods and means of covering and

compensating for this condition are germaine to and even

tantamount to the ostensible or outwardly perceived

personality itself.

The only cure for this spiritually debilitating disease is for

mankind to become aware of and finally to experience the

infinite and absolute Love that the Divine Father has for each

of His children. That God loves us so much and places such a

high value on us makes it obvious that we are extremely

valuable. This is the only antidote for low self-esteem.

I believe that as workers in the teaching mission, our most

important task is to introduce and inculcate in the minds and

hearts of troubled and fear driven Urantians, this awareness

of God's Love. We can't do this by preaching it or even by

teaching it, we have to live it. If we Love one another the

way the Master has and does Love us, then people will observe

this dynamic and unusual phenomenon and be impelled to find

out what is the secret of this sublime patience and tolerance.

In this manner will the virus of fatherly and brotherly Love

be introduced into the consciousness stream of mankind.

That's great! But ... how do we do it? We must become as

little children in order to enter the kingdom of reality - the

kingdom of Love. I believe that the only real enemy we have -

the only thing that stands between us and our fellow man, and

us and God is - the ego. The ego is the entity-like mechanism

which represents selfishness in the human consciousness. The

ego is a lie. It stands on a teetering scaffolding of fear and

screams, "Are you gonna let em do that to us?!!" "Who does

that monkey think he is?!!"

The ego is a mechanism for personal individuation, but as

individuals, we are an integral part of a divine or unified

totality. So the balance must be struck and the

representations of the ego are necessary. But when animal fear

is the engine that drives this quazi-real influence, then self

centeredness, that ugliest and most deadly of diseases,

renders the soil of the soul untillable and barren of

spiritual growth.

How do we silence the ego, or at least take away its bullhorn

or megaphone? How do we become impervious to the venal

commands and salacious entreaties of this imposter who wants

us to masquerade as an adult and assume power and control as a

means of gaining selfish comfort? The only way we can free

ourselves from the bondage and slavery of the ego is to become

as a little child. This may sound simple and easy, but it is

not easy and it isnít automatic. We cannot, by force of will,

accomplish this transformation. It's kind of a catch 22

situation; to become as a child we must sacrifice the ego, but

to sacrifice the ego, we must become as a little child.

Like anything else that's really difficult, we must allow the

Indwelling Thought Controller to do it for us. Only by

identification with the Father Fragment may we become as a

little child. A little child is dependent on its loving

parents. A little child trusts and is not suspicious or

conniving. A little child has no authority and is not critical

or judgemental. A little child avoids isolation and knows

nothing of self-exaltation.

When the day's struggles are over, the little child sleeps the

sleep of innocence and knows the peace that passes all

understanding. You must become as a little child in order to

enter the Kingdom of God, the Kingdom of Love, the Kingdom of

Reality. The Kingdom of Innocence.

Calvin T/Ríing from the Nashville Teaching Mission Conference,

July 17 - 18, 1998

MESSAGE FROM ABRAHAM

My friends, and fellow co-workers in the kingdom of our Father

and spreaders of the good news, I am Abraham. I wish to add a

few words to those of my fellow associates. It is indeed

sometimes confusing in your daily tasks of knowing what

direction you must take to be about your Father's business--as

has been shared with you, you each are becoming quite attuned

to your inner guide, our Father's Will. Some [are] more

attuned than others, of course, and this level of attunement

is based on some factors.

First, your inner desire, which desire has led you each to

this mission. And second, your faith which assists you in

letting go of your mortal patterns and your traditions and

your fears which does bind each mortal, especially, in these

isolated worlds. Thirdly, your commitment to be about your

Father's business; your commitment to serve your fellows; your

commitment to learn the lessons; and, your commitment to both

receive Michael's hard truths and to assist in delivering

them.

So, those three factors have exhibited themselves in your

lives and hence you are here seeking fellowship and

instruction and share love and seek love. And I tell you, my

mortal friends, having been so recently as you, I most

heartfully commend you. But it does come with its confusing

moments, doesn't it? Frustrations, disappointments, dashed

hopes and expectations, misunderstandings, miscommunications,

and toothaches. These are just a very few examples of mortal

living in your world.

Now. Let me help in putting your minds at ease concerning your

mission role and participation. It would be most helpful as

Welmek has presented so well, to seek the Master Teacher,

Spirit of Truth, and your indwelling Father's direction to

learn these lessons of teaching. Yes. And remember, those

experiences which you incorporate as truth are those

experiences and truths which you are indeed qualified to share

with your fellows. Otherwise, yes, you are theorizing and

intellectualizing.

But to relay your heartfelt experience and your joy of

understanding this experience and sharing its meaningful value

does make for a most fruitful reception to the hearer.

In your confusing days, please relax by whatever method you

have experienced that works and seek communion with your

Father. Seek Michael's experiential understanding also. Seek

our Universe Mother's assistance in opening your mind. If you

remain dedicated as you are, and committed to being about your

Father's business, how can your creator parents withhold from

you? Yes, your creative creator parents. Many are in service

beyond even my perception who assist in doing Father's bidding

in your behalf. Have you not recognized those coincidental

happenings around you, those timely experiences that coincide

with the lesson, an insight received in a song, words from a

book, enlightenment from your fellows that helps to bring

about an experiential value meaning to the lesson?

This interaction between we as teacher guides and yourselves

is awe-inspiring to even ourselves as to how our Creative

Mother, our Creative Father, our Creative Brother, interact

with all hosts of heaven for your behalf, their children, in

bringing about experiential understanding. This, my fellows is

great cause to worship. Is great cause to adore our wonderful

parents. So, in those frustrating moments, find ways to calm

and relax which does suit you. Be creative and open for new

ways, ask for assistance and commune with your parents, and be

observant of Father's timely answers without any expectations.

Your expectations are a great hindrance to you and oh, do I

remember well, how many times my aspirations and hopes were

dashed and how blessed I was to have understood this in my

mortal years. And yes, these lessons and dashings continue

beyond mortal life. Do not think we do not have struggles and

disagreements among us for we surely are individuals with

differing opinions and understandings. So please remember your

human-ness and have patience with yourselves for you, my

friends, are allowed to make many many mistakes, stumblings,

and enjoy the stubbed toes, hurt egos. This, my friends, is

what so many who observe and assist you did not get to

experience. These are not hardships, these are Father's

creative experiences for you.

I would ask you to imagine now in this city of Nashville a

blackout at midnight wherein you as an average mortal would be

scurrying around in the city. Where, my friends, would you go

if it was a total blackout and hard to find your way? Would

you not head for any light? A room down the block with a light

on? Now picture, if you will, a light in a little room upon

every block where people seek to find shelter from the

darkness. You my fellows have already understood what I mean,

in that you are those lights upon each block, and each room

has a different experiential light to share.

Your varied experiences have pretty well covered a broad base

of human living, and those in this teaching mission are ready

to assist every weary traveler seeking shelter and comfort

according to your varied experiences. The Indwelling Father

within them does assist them to which light to seek for their

necessary growth, just as you have also been enlightened and

directed. This lesson, this visualization, is one which will

spread worldwide until the city is lightened, the nation is

lighted, the planet is lightened, the system is lightened, and

all Father's children are enlightened. It seems slow in mortal

living, yes, but these lights coming on to those who assist

this world, are coming on at record pace. No period of earth's

history has experienced so much preparation and enlightenment

as these people have these past few decades upon Urantia. And

you, my fellows, can take great acceptance in your humble

roles as teachers of that truth which you have experienced.

I am now taking my leave and welcome you to this night's

gathering of entertainment. I thank you for your attendance at

this conference and for your participation in every form which

has made this an experiential conference. My love is with you

each. My core students. I love you. I love working with you.

There is nothing about you which is unlovable. Shalom.

MESSAGE FROM HAM AND MOTHER SPIRIT

TR: Rebecca

HAM: Greetings, again, friends, this is a time of rejoicing,

of excitement, of wonderful confusion. In future times, on

other worlds, you will look back on this time with a fondness

that is unmatched in your ascension career. This is a time of

that sublime uncertainty that tentative awareness that point

right before you dive in the swimming pool. When you look down

in anticipation and excitement. This is that time which will

determine the course of your future careers and yes, will

influence the course of Urantian history forever.

This is a time of great decisions, of blind faith, as they

say, of jumping into the unknown, and children we watch you

with fondness and parental solicitude over your first forays

out into the world as transformed beings. There is a message

from the Mother Spirit.

NEBADONIA: Dear Ones. I am your true motherly source, your

true motherly anchor. I watch you with the closeness and the

love of an anxious mother only I have no anxiety. I have no

doubts. I know your hearts. You belong to me. When you are

tired, think of your mother bringing you refreshment and rest.

When you are unhappy, think of your mother giving you

encouragement. When you go out in the world and see some of

the sufferings of your brethren, remember, their mother goes

with them, also. Their mother is there.

And children, open your hearts to receive my ministry. Open

your hearts to receive the seraphic ministry that is

constantly surrounding you. Open your hearts to receive the

motherly love that is as strong and as pure as Fatherly love.

When you reach for Michael's hand with one hand, reach for

mine with the other. I am like a gentle breeze blowing through

your souls. I am like a soft rain reviving the thirsty soil. I

am like a green leaf, tender and supple and growing. I am like

the sunshine, soothing and life giving. Come to me. I do hear

you. I do hear your prayers. Come to me. And allow my love to

soothe your aching hearts and to wash away your tears. Always

remember and think of my love for when you do, I am there. I

am with you.

HAM: There are others who are desiring to speak with you in

farewell. Until we are together again, understand that my

love, my prayers are with you as well. Farewell.

MESSAGE FROM NERO

TR: Jim Cleveland

NERO: I am Nero, a Teacher in this mission. And in this

beautiful farewell evening, I would like to address you for a

moment. You, the few and the mighty. For sometimes I know you

consider yourselves small in number and you wonder with some

worry of your significance in such an awesome challenge as

planetary change.

Perhaps I can add some calm and peaceful insight to this

intermittently nagging consideration. Had you been an apostle

of our Master, you would hardly know that you, an ordinary

man, is helping to bring forth upon the world a brand new

religion. For you may consider yourself a fisherman, a man of

modest means, a working man, a family man. And would you have

the time to help create a new and expanded religion?

And you yourselves daily face all the challenges of a mortal

life, and seek to find these times between in which you can

contribute great work can be accomplished by the few who are

spiritually connected to the energy. And who have learned to

bring ideas, visions, hopes and dreams to fruition with bold

actions. The few can be the mighty. The motivated charged

electrified with the energy of the spirits.

How many people does it require to seed the Urantia book in

every country of the world? Surprisingly few. The worldwide

web at work has been inspired and co-created with you for the

purpose of bringing this arena into potentially powerful and

quickening exhilarating interaction. The speed of change will

be greatly accelerated in years ahead. You are the threshold

of a beginning. And though you are few, I want you to

understand in your hearts that no matter the burgeoning

publishing of spiritual ideas, inspirations, and motivations,

you have a message, it could be called a marketing niche by

the secularists, which no one else has in its pure and simple

form.

You have a unique message which many will find to be the

kernel the nucleus that will unify and center their spiritual

growth. These people will range form the mainstream of

organized churches to the bold adventurers of the so-called

New Age. Which often resembles the ancient age revisited. All

of these proliferating movements, in fact, mean that you are

not the few, you are a unique band with a special heartening

nuclea-ized message that cuts to the heart as no other

movement seems to be doing. This incisive and liberating

message of God presence inside. You are attuned to strong and

powerful truths through your cosmology text which provides

overencircling foundation. And a newly dramatized teaching of

these concepts which have been ruminating within your minds

these many years.

It is time for action. You are taking these actions, you are

revealing God inside. You are revealing the art of listening,

hearing, and interconnecting with celestials of many

personalities and many missions who are flooding, flooding,

flooding to this sector of the universe for purification. You

are part of this purification, beginning, as all other great

movements begin inside. Inside the hearts the minds the souls

of each of you. All great movements emanate from within.

Therefore, one goes within to begin personal growth and

purification, after which time, you will be sponsored and

accompanied, side by side, with your celestial friends who

move forth in living service.

There is some impatience that things move too slowly, but I

ask you to consider with truthful heart if your own

purification has been manifested. And if there are not other

lessons to learn individually personally that will make this

precious limited mortal time more appropriate. And in this

purification comes the preparatory skills and personality

balance resembling to the degree of possibility the supreme

balance of Christ Michael as Jesus the son of Man.

You may be few, but you can bring yourself, your personality,

into a state of balance that you take greater satisfaction in

knowing that you at least resemble and emulate the precious

Jesus. While you may not find this perfection in every day of

your mortal life, you will find a balance that helps you to

glide and not take hard steps, that smoothes your day by day

transition into a feeling of blended, encircled peace and

energy intertwined that will carry you through each day. And

you will know restful sleep that truly nurtures and refreshes

and invigorates.

You as individuals can reach this level of purification that

you may go forth as apostles, working in twos, and doing great

work. Do not be impatient. Look in hindsight, as a tool, to

see how far you have come. And you have come far. For your

relatively few numbers, we consider you the most dynamic, the

most heartfelt, and the most contributing segment of this

textual revelation. You were chosen many years ago, most truly

as children, because you asked for higher spiritual

understanding, and you have been led to learn this cosmology

as a curriculum to inspire you to teach universal truths in

your daily lives. Many skills, many talents come into the fore

and many great works are done by individuals in very small

groups working together.

Do not despair of the media. The media is also changing. And

the media will change even more. And do not feel because you

are one or because you are few that you must carry this great

load of planetary evolvement upon your shoulders. For truly

the energies are emanating from each heart of atheist and

agnostic becoming increasingly restless, disillusioned with

what they have found to be not true, hungry for a deeper depth

of understanding. And on every point of light on Urantia, from

the monasteries, to the churches, to the synagogues, we work

with individuals, bringing forth from within, the indwelling

spirit, those concepts and inspirations that are needed.

This is a massive planetary awakening. And the mission is even

more massive to your points of view when considered form a

local universe context. For Nebadon virtually vibrates with

excitement of epochal purification of planets, of worlds, and

this work is so incredibly exciting that I wish you could see

it from our perspective. However, your perspectives are what

you must refine now. This is your opportunity for life in the

flesh and experiential learning as has been said. It could not

be obtained in any other way. Patience, of course, is

required. Patience, patience. For this time of unfoldment is

not only an exercise in developing your individual purities,

your individual strength of will that will make you as an

individual a forceful warrior for love and peace. It is also

an exercise in cooperation, for while the individual must

realize self-potential, and a level of self-reliance within

the context of grace, you must learn to work with others who

have differing often frustrating views as you have learned in

the trials of your various groups.

It is all about learning and growing and that is what is going

on. It is all about evolution and that is what is going on.

And so as you learn the strength of the one, the strength of

the small groups, the strength of the many, you must also

learn that cooperation in enterprises of this magnitude

require even more, they require intergenerational cooperation,

ordinarily not done by the father and mothers of today, but

the continuation and completion of this great purification and

reclamation must be done by your children and your

grandchildren. And we encourage you to take yet another

responsibility in training them well. Training them to carry

on, through the generations, an amazing story will unfold on

this very special planet.

And always know and always understand that the doomsayers,

apocalypic prophets my friends, from my perspective as a

teacher in this mission, I say to you that these catastrophes

will not bring this world to ruin. As you grow in spirit, you

will realize how preposterous this idea is. I do not believe

the Father is inclined to destroy a perfectly good planet, or

to allow his hungry crying suffering children, whose pleas for

help have touched the Father and touched all in Nebadon and

many beyond Nebadon, these cries of suffering are validation

that you have paid heavy dues, you have suffered already.

You are working for spiritual peace, you are asking, you will

receive, indeed are receiving incremental openings of energy

which allow incremental openings of your perception of truth,

appreciation of beauty, desire to live in goodness. These

energy openings can cause disruptive and nonsensical actions

which you would consider marks of insanity. Indeed, if you

look around, while you also have trained yourselves to look at

the positive examples of the Correcting Time, you will see

many weird aberrations of people who seem to, as you say, have

become very ìweirded out.î I say to you, you will be called

upon to help many of these people regain their balance, regain

their center, for they are floundering without the nucleus

that holds the power structure together.

Without this anchoring heart of goodness, without the

realization of the one God inside, many will fall to the

various vices and self-indulgences and frustrations that lead

to violence and conflict. These are your brothers and sisters.

Help them to find this center within. This center within is

the nucleus from which all grows. It is the flowering blossom

of beauty. Nature encompasses lessons in every being, in every

action, in every changing season. Much can be learned from an

acorn. From a seed. From a cat. Much can be learned from the

earth, and the earth itself combined with the stillness can

become a powerfully energizing influence. Find these pockets

of energy in the stillness. Keep your tank filled because you

never know what tomorrow may bring.

What opportunity to be of service. And if you have been a

slackard in energizing your spiritual self, you will often not

be prepared to confront the one in suffering, the one who

attacks you, the pitiful beggar in the street. The one whose

eyes ask you for compassion and help as you walk on by. It is

the stillness that energizes, this is the place to go for

powerful illuminating energies, incremental additional

elements of truth and beauty and goodness to fill and permeate

your soul. And as you are filled to overflowing, as your

purification reaches levels for which you can feel a peaceful

satisfaction, then you will be called upon for service which

relates directly to your talents and skills.

I know this is perhaps a compilation of much you have heard

before. But in the rearranging of information and the various

combinings, I pray that my lesson and my insights and

perspectives have been helpful to you. And that you will take

them for your consideration into your moral and spiritual

fabric, and I will be pleased and gratified if you make this

part of you.

Thank you for listening. I am overjoyed to have the

opportunity to work with the courageous mortals of Urantia, a

special place, for which I volunteered and was genuinely

excited upon receiving this assignment. For of all places in

Nebadon, this is the where we would want to be. And we would

hope that you are happy to be here too. Peace to all of you

and good night.

MACHIVENTA MELCHIZEDEK

TR: Willie Verhoff

My children, I am Master Machiventa. I use the term master

only because I believe you would recognize me as a master. I

feel as welcome as a master, and wish to share with you all of

the delights of my heart and my being as I've been referred to

frequently here as elsewhere as one of your master teachers.

Of course I am and I am pleased and honored to do so, because

as you know we have a rich and mighty history. That history

which has been brought to us by all of your inner beings, in

actuality.

It is all of our inner beings that are part of that heart and

center, the Original Source and Center, that is each of us.

While you may tend to look at each of us as teachers and as

masters, in actuality we are all masters and we are all

teachers. There is no elevation of "greater than" in the

kingdom as you more than likely know. But I want to reinforce

this with you, that it is we all, or all of we, that make up

the entirety, the embodiment, the totality of the Christ

Being. It is in that, that we are all the Christ and that is

our purpose, that is our intention and that is our being.

So, in that, please recognize that the wishes and the goodness

and the entirety of all of creation and all of the cosmos is,

in reality, each and every one of us. It's a remarkable sight

as all of you have many insights into your presence of being,

that just imagine the pristine beauty of what, for example,

you would imagine me to be as has already been described, but

imagine that as one of the most, me as the example, as one of

the most beautiful sights you had imagined.

Again, this reference here is to only use me as I have been

used as an example. To picture me, say, for presentation

purposes, as a column of clear, crystal beauty, a column of

whatever size you want to picture. And now imagine this column

of crystal beauty shimmering in its clarity, the shape and

configuration of it, each dimension or each facet a reflection

of beauty in its own right, shimmering in that rainbow color.

Now picture that in the backdrop or the setting of equal

crystals, or innumerable crystals - a crystal room, if you

will, a crystal palace. So see that, for example, as you

envision that in your mind, that crystal that you see me as is

only a closeup picture of yourself as it is in reality.

But each of us is that reflection of the clarity and the

transmission capability and the reflective beauty of what that

crystal column is all about. So crystal is a magnificent

element as you probably know. I use that example because it is

so true as to what we are. But notice in that too, that we are

all the same. Different orders, different creatures, different

beings of expression, but my real point is that in the

integrity of that crystal column is the clarity, the beauty,

the original nature of the Father of us all. That we are

simply reflections of that mighty beauty that exists because

the Father is that crystal column within us. He is that

original Source, He is that, that which crystal has found as a

marvelous vehicle for transmission, He is that, that is.

So imagine if you will, just concentrate on that as a source

of being and a source of your light because that if the light

that you are of the original source. So in all of that, just

picture that, and then add to that your own sound. Can you

imagine just for a moment, I'll stop for a moment, to add that

sound then to this orchestration of crystal in this palace.

Take a moment and just listen to that sound and then I'll add

to that.

Hopefully, you got a good sense of what that is. Imagine that

in all of that collective beauty, imagine that at the time

when in the demonstration of that, that whenever you are

speaking of the nature and the centeredness and the

originality of the Father and all of the hierarchy that is

thereby represented. This is only meant to be a helpful hint

for you in terms of visualization of who you are and what we

are about. Use this as an illustration to in all of your

future endeavors in speaking about the father and the

consequent brotherly love that exists within and among you.

Picture this as just an example of what it will be like in the

day, not too far into the future, when each of you and each of

us will have the opportunity to actually experience the

brotherly love that exists in the same nature as the crystal

palace.

When that it hits the point of the hum of the unity, and

imagine that, in an enveloping expansive way into all of the

ethers. The one message I want to reinforce with you, and it

starts with the one, that is the one source and center of all

being, is the all in allness. If you can keep that in mind as

a central site and source of the inner source of all light and

all development in terms of encouraged recognition of truth as

we speak it. Focus on this particular picture as an actual

demonstration of experiential truth and love in action. So I

truly appreciate your dedication, we all do and you have my

greatest and humblest, most beautiful of blessings. You are

great and wonderful, each and all, in all of your ways. There

is no limitation, there is no separation, and there certainly

is no one who is greater than the other. It is all a matter of

allness.

So in that I wish you well, all ood tidings to all good

seekers, and wish each and every one and bless

each and every one as if you were my child, my own. Because it

is the love of the Father that presents all of us the

opportunity to dance in eternity and we welcome each and every

one of you as seekers along the way as you are beautiful and

honest and sincere children of most heavenly Father. So I

appreciate your opportunity, if anyone had questions I would

be happy to entertain them for a brief while.

Calvin: (paraphrased) I have enjoyed my relationship with

Abraham so wonderfully and He is such a master teacher as well

who has meant so much in my life, and he speaks of his

relationship with you as being similar. I just wanted to thank

you for bringing us Abraham and thank you for your wonderful

teachings as well.

MACHIVENTA: You are most welcome. We have more to share with

you than you can actually know. The illustration of the

crystal was not just a pretty picture, but for you to be aware

on many levels of what we want you to be in tune with and that

attunement is another great demonstration of the element of

crystal, because as you know, it is a tuning element as well.

It is a fine item, so we want you to be aware at all levels

that we are with you and bring you every opportunity to

develop yourselves as the outward representation of the

god-force that's within you. So we bring you every opportunity

to do that. There, as you know, are many and countless

illustrations of truth. All of the

students that I had in Salem were excellent representations of

the beings that were available at that time to set the

momentum to go forward in terms of the developed truth as we

know it today and as it will be known in the future.

But Abraham certainly was an apex student. As you had read,

there was some difficulty in terms of his own ambition and

what he had set out to do and what his intentions were. But,

it was for that reason that a personality of his stature was

truly necessary to be able to bring that wild kingdom into

submission, so to speak, to get the attention of those at the

time, to be able to more or less hit them over the head, get

their attention and them move forward in terms of

enlightenment. He is a remarkable individual and I am happy to

make that available to you as well as all other teachers who

are available to you here and henceforth. So you are most

welcome.

[Susan Kimsey asks about crop circles and whether she should

be pursuing the subject.]

MACHIVENTA: The crop circles are an outward manifestation of

higher truth made manifest. These are developments of

celestial beings who are world travelers, or actually,

intergalactic travelers who have been part of your planet for

a long time. They are involved in many higher truths. They are

of other-dimensional status. So that they are not three

dimensional beings or beings of the third dimension, but

rather those dimensions which exist beyond your own physical

dimension, of course. But they've been involved for a long

time because there has been the time expectation, as time

begins to change as is it right now, it's all part of the

evolutionary cycle.

Time and space as you know it will change. Just picture, for

example, the ethers of being, or the ethers of space, as it

continues to roll and to expand into further development.

Those evolutionary, or ether type movements, bring along with

it dimensional expansion so that one's mind will expand in its

ability to encompass more along the dimensional pathway. So

beings who are at higher levels of dimension have transport

ability, and have ships that are able to make this possible

and are friendly intermediaries of emissaries, if you will, of

their dimensional worlds that are here to help you in terms of

higher consciousness. So where their role, at this point, is

interacted is in terms of visualization of how they can help

show how the planet can be affected by their thought

processes.

And similar to that discussion yesterday, if you notice the

outward sign of their impression upon your world, it is art

related. There's so much related to sacred geometry that your

world is only beginning to break the code of, that this is

part of their mission, to help share with you the mystery and

the code and the wholeness or oneness of sacred geometry. So

in any one line that is drawn, any one dot that exists, there

is no way that you can help yourself, but to go to the

original Source as always, as the All-in-Allness of All That

Is.

Meaning thatÖ take one dot, and from that dot, all else is

made - a line, a circle, a geometric figure, etc. It's just

the expansiveness. So that's one illustration that I'll give

you of the role that is played with these higher beings, in

terms of their wanting to share with you that it's the

interrelatedness, the interdependence that we all have upon

one another as all beings of the one. So I hope that helps a

little bit, I'm not sure if you were looking for more

specifics than that, but that, I believe, presents the why and

wherefore of that phenomenon.

Norman: Do you consider yourself to be personally present on

the planet at this time, and if so, are you incarnate?

MACHIVENTA: I will be physically present as your planetary

sovereign when the energy levels have risen to the point that

unity has begun. As you know, you are in the evolutionary

stages of developing the oneness. It's at the point of

development not too far down the road, that when there is

enough awareness at the psychic or soul level, the inner

oneness knowing level, throughout the world, and bless you

Norman, you're helping to do this, when there is a unified

level of awareness to

the point that every individual, again points on the map,

every individual within the surface of the earth knows, and

this doesn't have to be everyone, but so long as you can

pinpoint individuals around the world, when there are enough

individuals around the world who know the value of the oneness

of their being.

And finally recognize that as Jesus illustrated, the point

being, that each individual knows that they are a child of

God, and that they reflect their oneness with the Father, and

to incorporate their being with that of the Father's will,

when there are enough people who know the oneness of being,

then there will be a shimmering presence, a sheet of awareness

around the globe. Imagine it. A white see-through spirit

enveloping oneness of mist, of unification, at that point the

opportunity will be made available for my presence as your

planetary sovereign. So my absence in the mean time is nothing

more than the need for the workers to bring about that level

of awareness in order for the transformation of your planet

into the oneness of being presence in order for the

transformation to continue to unfold.

At that time, the levels of awareness will simply multiply by

the presence of more than one believer and more than one

person knowing their oneness of being, the multiplication

effect will then be dramatic. So the time of unification and

Light and Life as we know it to be elsewhere, is definitely in

formation. It's a long process, it's nevertheless full of

hope, light and primarily love. I welcome you all to that

particular charge, as the emissary of the one, to help us

bring that about. There is no purpose in life, there is no

intention, there is no reason for being that is any greater

than that.

So again, all are equal representations of the Father and I

only encourage you to recognize that above all else. That each

is a magnificent representation of the oneness of all. And I

just thrill at the opportunity for each of you to take that to

heart and to totally celebrate it because it is certainly

celebrational. So we are already one, of course, and my

presence will be made known, but it isn't as essential as you

knowing right now that you are building that white sheet of

love around the planet.

Stella: I want to thank you for addressing the people at Glen

Ivy a few weeks ago through me, but I am concerned that the

Foundation doesn't recognize the teaching mission and I

wondered if you had any words that could shed light on this

subject.

MACHIVENTA: I was present, and I thank you for asking that

question. Along the same line of what we've been discussing,

the separation that has existed within the various levels of

the Urantia movement, are truly unfortunate. It shows - as it

has shown in many other developments of human progress -

whenever there is a central source of information and

essentially radical transformation to bring a thought process,

the status quo, out of the dark and into the light. Take any

situation you can think of in modern times, or even pre-modern

times, whenever that particular process is brought to

completion in terms of the original idea and then the action

to bring it into reality takes place, then

basically, pardon the expression, ìall hell breaks looseî.

The purification of a central idea and then the action to

bring it into reality, it would seem to most people that once

that reality demonstration is brought about, I'm thinking

particularly of the American Revolution for example, what a

radical idea that was, that once there was the collective

mass, the energy strong enough to move that forward out of

theory and into reality and hence all of the dynamic

personalities that were made available for that to become a

reality. As you already know, that was no mistake, or simple

happenstance, or coincidence, but the dynamic individuals that

were here and elsewhere to make that possible is an actual

illustration of the freedom of being that the principle of

America is, is a fine example of what I am talking about as

hence you are today, and all of the other brothers and sisters

that you will meet along the way.

So, seen in the human experience is, once a development takes

hold to that extent, it means having to then level the playing

field to get all of the dimensions of political thought and

holds on the dynamic development of truth. It'll take a while

for that to level out to the point where the original point

then becomes the prevailing pure thought that can be

recognized and adhered to. So you are already seeing that take

place in terms of the various factions that have existed and

that have warred over, could be point of illustration, over

simply the color of the writing pen. Why create a war over

something that really doesn't matter. But nevertheless, the

irregularities, the impurities, so to speak, have to be

brought to the surface as you would in the purification of

gold, for example. The impurities come to the top in order for

the real element to be there in total beauty.

So yes, the ultimate recognition at the point, for example,

that I speak of, in terms of when the white sheet of awareness

is surrounding this globe that you inhabit and the surrounding

spheres in which this particular planetary system exists, and

don't stop to think then that that particular development

won't have positive ramification upon Satania and the rest of

Nebadon and Orvonton etc., what a dynamic, wonderful

development we're in. So perhaps I am using to illustrate my

verbosity, forgive that if you will, but I love to demonstrate

the actual development that takes place in terms of from the

one dot, all else develops. Just the dynamic dimensions of

what you're doing cannot be overstated. I hope that answers

you question.

Student: I have been concerned lately about the disappearance

of species and especially what is happening to frogs, genetic

mutations etc. Could you shed a little light on this?

MACHIVENTA: There is definitely a correlation between

disappearance of species and its planetary cause. The real

causal effect of the height of pollution has been brought to

most people's awareness. The unadulterated abuse of the planet

that had occurred during the industrial era and that occurred

primarily during the nineteen sixties or nineteen seventies in

terms of just all out, unrestricted "whatever happens,

happens," is beginning to be reversed in the sense that the

awareness is there for reversal of that unadulterated

pollution of the planet.

However, the total awareness or consciousness of people who

yet pollute, has not risen to the level of common knowledge,

it's not taken into their psyche yet. I'm talking in general

terms. While, for example, the younger generations are fully

aware and have incorporated within their psyches the necessity

to have cleanliness and anti-pollution being a definite part

of their centeredness of being. There are still enough

individuals in the world, in industrial settings throughout

the world, and the situation in the rainforest is certainly

nothing to be taken lightly, as an illustration. There's

enough pollution yet in the everyday business world and

environment, that it is truly a concern.

The time will come when those who are in regular types of

industry, that produce everything that's used from the chairs

you are sitting on to the ceiling tiles, will be aware enough

to the point where, as I was speaking of earlier, when the

level of consciousness is raised high enough, that everything

that will be made, everything that will be utilized, will be

made and utilized from the vantage point of ìhow does this fit

into the oneness of all that is. How even is its chemical

composition in synch or at one with everything that will be

used.î So the totality of everything that is made and all

materials that are used to create will be brought into a

central purpose, so that all is in combination or in

synchronicity with all that is.

So, I know that sounds like it may not be answering the

question, or that it is pie in the sky, but in reality it is

showing that it is the developmental process that is taking

place. As far as particular species are concerned, the frog is

a unique creature. It is a creature of particular spiritual

worth and value in that it presents truth to its beholder.

Whenever a frog is made present, it's bringing to you a

higher spiritual truth, asking you to look at the spirituality

of and the truthfulness of the situation that is presented. So

that the elimination of the frog from many locations in this

world, is certainly a loss factor and whenever any one part of

the geometric puzzle or the biological ecosystem is damaged

and lost, it is certainly a loss to the entirety.

But while it looks like there are diminishing representative

presences made known in terms of fewer frogs being manifested

in this world, its potential loss is of great concern, of

course, but there is a message there in the meantime that lets

us know that there is a higher truth being called forth. So

while all exists at the same time, in real terms there is no

lineal demonstration of time along the path that the moment we

share right now is the moment that always is, always was.

My point is, that while it appears at the moment that there is

reduction in the population of frogs in any number of species,

it's simply pointing out to the world of common consciousness

right now, that we are in a developmental phase of losing

ground, as it would appear to be. Losing ground in terms of

consciousness of the common, accepted, known realities as we

see them, of slowly melting or developing into the backdrop of

reality as it is. Meaning, that for there being fewer frogs,

it would make the demonstration observable to those who can

observe it. That the reality as you know it, the social

consciousness as you know it, is slowly slipping away and

eroding and fading into the backdrop.

So that in its place comes forth the higher truth and the

higher reality and the higher consciousness of that which is.

So even in that the transformation, the evolution of what is

occurring on the planet will ultimately cleanse itself and

that while certain species may be lost, it's their

contribution to the wholeness of the planet in its

developmental process that will eventually bring forth a

replacement manifestation of the truth of the frog in new

forms, new species, new opportunities for growth and unity. So

this is an opportunity for increased awareness which I wished

to share with you and hopefully that answers your question as

well.

John Creger: I was wondering about the Melchizedek

Universities, how the planning is progressing and how they

will effect education in general on this planet.

MACHIVENTA: I appreciate your question. It's multi-faceted, of

course, but it all fits in with that which we have already

presented today. That the Melchizedek Universities, which are

part of the morontia world development, has been the specialty

of the Melchizedek order, to make those higher truths of the

Melchizedek principles, which I was here to illustrate, which

is part of the overall development of humankind as a truth

representation, or in other words, the truth of the order of

Melchizedek as teachers of the truth, is this world's, this

universe's, this superuniverse's, for example, school of

truth. So we are happy teachers within that realm. It's an

ominous, yet beautiful opportunity to serve creation.

As the developments take place within your world, it will

naturally, as everything that you see, as it is right now,

meaning it terms of principle and structure, as you already

know, is currently a manifestation of higher reality as you

know it, in terms of hierarchy, order, institutions reflecting

that which is on the cosmic scale. So that as the development

takes place and the refinement takes place within each

individual, those institutions which currently exist and will

continue to slowly make each of the individuals within those

institutions begin to make the transformation of

consciousness, there will naturally become the attunement to

raising one's level of consciousness to the outward world so

that it will be one in sinc with everything else that is.

So that the new philosophy, the new intention, the new order,

if you will, of being able to have the oneness of all be

represented in all that is done, it will naturally bring about

the development and escalation of the consciousness level, to

be demonstrated in all walks of life, in all institutions. So

it will be that influence which is the Melchizedek teaching or

the teachings of the Melchizedek Universities, which will

naturally make its transition in terms of demonstrated

knowledge and particular knowledge that will be made known at

that time, which will be part of your institutional setting

and the structure of what will become as is, or will become

the new reality that you will know as replacement of what you

know today. In other words, it will be the ìas isî reality at

that time.

Moe Davis: I'm always struck by how much the bad news of the

world tends to dominate in the press and in our thoughts. Do

you have any comments on this?

MACHIVENTA: Good question. The primary reason for that is

fear. The elimination of fear is the greatest challenge you

have ahead of you. And it is simply, sounds easier than

accomplished, but with faith, which is knowing, there is no

fear, as you know. So taking that concept of who you are in

your reality and moving forward without fear of who you are;

if that alone weren't enough to propel you, to give you the

energy to go forward to proclaim in a simple way, I mean, this

doesn't have to be mountain to shouting, but in a simple way

demonstrating who you are in terms of ìhave you heard, have

you received, do you know the good news? Here is a book which

is not your representation of God on earth, but take the

knowledge that it is and etch in your heart and grow in the

knowledge of who you are.î Then the good news reaches every

open ear, and more particularly every open heart, that they

are a being of God, that they are a representation, a physical

representation of the spiritual reality of a representation of

the One.

So, what does that have to do with bad news and oranges, or

the price of tea in China? Simple, in true analysis, what does

humanity tend to do but to disclaim everything and to call it

a name and to discredit it before it has a chance to affect

them? In other words, the cynicism that exits in this world is

critical to say the least. Funny term, critical, but it is at

a critical level that people are in their understandings of

who they are because they don't know who they are in reality.

That their social awareness, life as they know it in all

dimensions that they are aware of is always at threat to them

in terms of what they know within themselves to be true. In

other words, short term analysis of that is that, because

people do not feel welcomed, primarily within themselves,

because they do not yet know who they are. As soon as they

know who they are, they will certainly feel welcome with

themselves, and then hence, everyone else.

The current state of affairs is such that they feel threatened

at all levels. So if there is any kind of good news or any

kind of positiveness that comes to them, because they feel

unwelcome within themselves, they have no seat of authority,

if you will. Picturing the heart, they have no seat of

authority with which to receive goodness, so hence they reject

it, so hence it creates a cynical film or skin over them, that

would have to criticize and reject anything that's good

because the reception of the good is a threat to themselves.

So hence, everything has to be analyzed, criticized, and put

into its proper place of "good bag ñ bad bag," if you will.

So it is just a state of consciousness that has people being

analytical of all that is for fear of transforming themselves,

to become part of the oneness. If that helps any. So in simple

analysis, if you'll notice how it all keeps coming back to the

oneness. So the opportunity for sharing and the opportunity

for demonstrating the good news as you know it is immense. The

opportunity is enormous and the beauty and the opportunities

for sharing are limitless. So recreating the awareness of the

oneness that you are after this conference is finished, to be

able to simply share that in the truth and the honesty and

integrity of who you are, will be manifestation enough for

those who you speak to about the truth of the book and the

purpose of it being, as the Master illustrated, was to do the

Father's will after recognizing who you are, and the living

out of that will bring about this white sheet of protective

love that make the transformation for further development and

evolution into the oneness become even more real.

So I hope all of this helps, and if it is of any help for you

in the future to recollect what it was that I was speaking of,

again I take you back into that crystalline room, the crystal

palace. And in that light, in that love, in that humming unity

of being I shed my happy thoughts with you and bring forth all

love and light that exists within my realm and yours which is

rapidly becoming one, because it is a matter of consciousness.

I welcome you to the love and the light and reinforce within

you the love of the Father that is. Let the love of the

Father-That-Is ring true to every mountain top, to every

village, to every hamlet in between, that each and every

individual that is, is a unique manifestation of the oneness

of the Father. So let all peace ring true in each hearer's

ears and may the love and the light of the Master which was

before you, live true in your heart and may the beauty of the

realm last forever. I depart, I leave you in the love and

light of the Master before us and know that all is well. Amen.

REVELATION AT A REST STOP

ME AND SISTER RACHEL AND JUMPER CABLE JIMMY

HEADED FOR ALABAMA SMOKIN' LIKE A CHIMNEY

ABOUT TWO JOINTS AND 30 MILES DOWN THE ROAD

JIMMY'S EYES BUGGED OUT LIKE A TROMPED ON TOAD

HE WAS MAKIN' FUNNY SOUNDS AND HE HAD A GOOFY GRIN

RACHEL SAID, "JIMMY'S GITTIN' 'IM A REVELATION AGAIN!"

I FINALLY FOUND A REST STOP AND LAID HIM ON A TABLE

HELD HIS HEAD BACK AN' POURED HIM FULL OF JACK BLACK LABEL

HE TOOK A DEEP BREATH AND COMPLETELY FILLED HIS LUNGS

THEN HE STOOD STRAIGHT UP AND STARTED TALKIN' IN TONGUES

HE SAID, "LORD I CAN SEE IT JUST AS PLAIN AS CAN BE

JULIUS CAESAR EATIN' WATERMELLON AND BLACK-EYED PEAS

AND SPITTIN' OUT THE SEEDS ON THE GRAVES OF SLAVES

CONQUERIN' THE WHOLE WORLD JUST TO GET A LITTLE PRAISE

I SEE FOUR BLACK HORSES EATIN' COTTONSEED MEAL

AND FORTY LEFT-HANDED RED HEADS WORKIN' IN A HOT CORNFIELD

NOTHIN'S EVER HAPPENED THAT HASN'T HAPPENED UP TO NOW

AND IF IT KEEPS ON RAININ' IT'S GONNA BE TOO WET TO PLOW"

HE FELL BACK ON THE TABLE, A WHOOPIN' AN' A STRAININ'

AND RIGHT ABOUT THEN, IT FINALLY STOPPED RAININ'

BLUE HAIRED LADIES STARTED CRAWLIN' OUTTA CARS

PRAYIN' FOR THE VETERANS OF ALL THE FOREIGN WARS

THERE WAS A CARLOAD OF MONKS FROM SOUTH OF CORPUS CHRISTI

ON THE WAY TO CHICAGO, THEY'D STARTED DRINKIN' WHISKEY

THEY COMMENCED TO TALKIN' LATIN AND SHAKIN' LITTLE BEADS

AND AS I WATCHED THE CROWD GATHER, IT TURNED MY MIND TO GREED

SO I GRABBED RACHEL'S NECKLACE WHILE SHE HAD HER HEAD BOWED

TOOK HER WALMART PEARLS AND STARTED SELLIN' EM TO THE CROWD

(STICKIN' THE MONEY IN MY POCKET AND SINGIN' HYMNS REAL LOUD)

THERE WAS 50 SNAKE HANDLERS IN AN OLD SCHOOL BUS

DRINKIN' SACRIFICIAL WINE AND KICKIN' UP A FUSS

THEY STARTED UNLOADIN' FROM A DOOR IN THE BACK

AND THE NEXT THING YOU KNOW, THEY WAS ALL IN THE ACT

THE SNAKES GOT LOOSE AND PEOPLE STARTED INTO CLIMBIN'

WOMEN STARTED SCREAMIN' AND BABIES STARTED WHININ'

SOME BAPTISTS FROM BEAUMONT STARTED CLAPPIN' IN A RHYTHM

AND THE HEALERS AND THE HOOKERS WAS ALL CLAPPIN' WITH EM

I SOLD JIMMY'S SHOES AND SOME STUFF TO CURE A COUGH

AN' I SOLD RACHEL'S SWEATER, BUT SHE WOULDN'T TAKE IT OFF

WE HAD THE SOUTH-BOUND TRAFFIC BACKED UP TO MONTEAGLE

WHEN JIMMY STARTED BARKIN' AND BAYIN' LIKE A BEAGLE

HE JUMPED FROM THE TABLE TO THE MIDDLE OF THE MOB

AND LANDED ON A CRIPPLE NAMED KNOCK-KNEED BOB

BOB JUMPED UP A DANCIN' AND THROWED AWAY HIS CRUTCHES

CLAIMIN' HE WAS FINALLY FREED FROM THE DEVIL'S CLUTCHES

I'SE ABOUT TO TELL RACHEL, WAKE JIMMY FROM HIS STUPOR

WHEN I LOOKED INTO THE EYES OF A TALL STATE TROOPER

I TOLD HIM JIMMY HAS A FIT WHEN A RAIN BREAKS THE DROWTH

AN' WE'D JUST STOPPED TO FIND A STICK AN PUT IT IN HIS MOUTH

BACK ON THE HIGHWAY, RACHEL BLOWED IN JIMMY'S EAR

HE WOKE UP AN ASKED WHAT HAPPENED, SAID HIS MEMORY WASN'T

CLEAR

I WINKED AT RACHEL AND I TOLD HIM HE'D JUST BEEN IN A DAZE

IF I'DA TOLD 'IM WHAT HAD HAPPENED, WE'DA HAD TO SPLIT THREE

WAYS
