Heavenletter #4997 The Princes and Princesses You Meet, July 31, 2014 

God said: 

There may well be a tendency for you to think that Great Men, these Great Men that books are written about, these who were presidents and their birthdays are celebrated or who have streets named after them or cities even – these you may think of as the extant Great Men. You may convince yourself that you don’t know any of the Greats. Of course, if you think that way, you are mistaken.
 
Unsung heroes are also great. There is not one person on Earth who does not have a significant impact on everyone else and, therefore, the world. You don’t have to directly engage with someone in order for him or her to have an impact on you. And vice-versa, you don’t have to engage with another in order to impact his life. If all are One, all are One. In effect, there are not Three Musketeers: There is One.
 
The way the hot summer sun has an impact on you. so does everyone have an impact on you.  The famous Great Men are honored by the world. There are other Great People who are not honored except by a few others perhaps yet always so honored by Me. I see clearly, and I see near and far. If I tell you that each man and woman on Earth is to be so respected, I wouldn’t make it up. It is of every benefit to you and to the so-called other to follow My take on this.
 
This is the same as My saying that you can’t go by appearances. You cannot. You must not. You can’t believe in appearances, not pro nor con. There are many possibilities. You don’t want to cut yourself off from a splendid opportunity. I will tell you frankly that everyone you come across is a splendid opportunity for you to blossom regardless of what you think.
 
Of the many possibilities, the well-dressed well-polished person you meet could be a charlatan for all you know. All appearances can do is give you an impression. Impressions are not always true. A person who does not present himself well could be a millionaire, and you know how you admire wealth.  
 
You can’t know ahead of time which ones of all the ordinary-seeming people who surround you will be angels in your life in one disguise or another. No matter, it is for you to be open to all possibilities. You certainly don’t want to cut anyone out and certainly not yourself. You could be Cinderella. You just don’t know it yet. Consider, if men and women were to choose mates based on looks, what would the world be like? Consider, if everyone could see beneath the surface, what would the world be then?
 
The future is spoken of, and yet the future does not really exist any more than the past.  Of course, past and future are real enough to you. It is something like your being on an escalator. As the escalator rises and passes different displays, you may see these upcoming displays as the future fast-approaching.
 
And when you hop on escalator going down, you recognize the displays and call them the past.
 
In the Reality of which I speak, you don’t get off the escalator. Where are you? You are riding on the escalator. In the world, as you look around and think, you have your perception and misperception of many things. Everyone rides the escalator the same, and yet each see different sights. This is life in the world.
 
In Heaven, there is no space and no time for all you perceive. Riding on the escalator is a dream you dreamed, and you are sure that it was real. It was real to you. It still is. It is real and vital to you. Earth life is a masquerade party that everyone believes is real. Regardless of the costume anyone wears, everyone is a Great Person and needs to be recognized as such. The man in rags is not a beggar. In Truth, he is a Prince, yet, in the world, he is perceived otherwise. You perceive him otherwise, and you deprive him, and so you deprive yourself.

Illawarra District, Australia, June 23, 2014. 
Teacher Samuel of Panoptia. 
Subject: “Apply to Your Planetary Prince.” 

Received by George Barnard. 

Samuel: “… all in all, too little is understood about the function of a Planetary Prince, at least as is the case under normal circumstances. A Planetary Prince has myriad tasks, although his entourage of workers is considerably diverse, and certainly most numerous. For ages your planet was without regular spiritual leadership, and until the end of Michael’s final bestowal this was the case. 

“At that point in time, as is universal regulation, the local universe’s Creator Son becomes the Planetary Prince, although another may be appointed by Him to rule in His stead. It was more than deserved for Machiventa Melchizedek to be given that task, if only by virtue of his great achievements during his time on Urantia in Abraham’s days. Recently, this Melchizedek was appointed to that task ‘in his own right’, as Michael divested Himself of the title, and the responsibility. 

“Quite unnoticed by his mortal subjects, Machiventa and those of his order work tirelessly on both governing the spiritual side of the planet, as well as directing the Correcting Time efforts through Progress and the more-Churches-oriented Teaching Mission. Primary and Secondary Midwayers – local and alien, counted in the thousands – make up but part of his standard workforce. The growing part of his helpers and underlings is the progressive band of mortals of all races, colors, genders, creeds and nationalities. 

“There is no greater spiritual achievement a mere mortal can attain than to belong to those who are in the service of Machiventa, and thereby of our Michael, Mother Nebadonia and the Father Creator. There is no pressure… but what a cause to be a part of the one single aim of the entire multiverse – perfection! Perfection in Truth, in Beauty and in Goodness – perfection in Love! The application to join the Prince’s ‘stable’ of workers needs to only be desired, and your Guardian Angel will pass on your application to the Prince. 

“The life of a mortal in alliance with the Planetary Prince’s Midwayers, Angels and Teachers will unlikely be one of ease. Essentially, though, it will be the most rewarding to look back on from higher realms. You have my personal guarantee on that. 

“This is Samuel of Panoptia, reminding you all about regular meditation, and leaving you my love.” 

Note: The Panoptian was a botanist and ethical bio-chemist on his evolutionary world. He worked with Life Carriers, and thus with Midwayers, also.

Benefits of Non-Covetousness 
Aparigraha is the fifth limb of yama (self-restraint). Parigraha is covetousness or greed, to possess and enjoy objects of the senses. Aparigraha is the opposite of parigraha. This is non-covetousness or non-acceptance of gifts; it is the absence of craving to possess and enjoy sensual objects. It is a mental state (bhava), wherein the sensual craving is dead. Parigraha leads to anxiety to preserve, to fear of loss, to sorrow in loss, to hatred, anger, untruthfulness, stealing, etc. Aparigraha puts an end to all these defects and bestows peace, contentment and satisfaction.
Aparigraha is indeed an aid to the practice of ahimsa (non-violence), satyam (truth), asteyam (non-stealing). When the craving is not satisfied you become angry, you hate the man who stands in your way of attaining and possessing things. You harm him in different ways; you speak untruth; you begin to steal things. The mind is ever in a state of agitation, restlessness, dissatisfaction and discontentment. Aparigraha removes all these defects. Mithya-drishti (the seeing of falsehood in objects), dosha drishti (the seeing of defects in them), vairagya (dispassion), discrimination, dama (control of the senses) and pratyahara (withdrawal of the senses) are aids to the practice of aparigraha. Aparigraha is the common foundation for all yogas, just as dhyana (meditation) is the common meeting point of all yogas. It is a virtue to be practised not only by aspirants but by all persons of the world.
He who has no faith in the grace of the Lord and in the utterance of Lord Krishna in the Gita, "I ensure the welfare of the devotees who constantly think of me", will not practise aparigraha. The practice of aparigraha has wonderful benefits. It removes at one stroke, fear, attachment, disappointment, anxiety, agitation, restlessness, hatred, jealousy, anger, lust, greed, cares, worries, despair, and depression. Therefore practise aparigraha and become a dynamic yogi.

Pure love is bliss. Speak forgivingly, act lovingly, serve lovingly. You will soon enter the kingdom of heaven or supreme peace. Hatred ceases not by hatred, but by love. Love is absolute goodness, honour, peace, and purity.
