Jonathan: We welcome now the guidance of our Magisterial Son. As we lift our minds to
him to seek answers it is our hope that we can be of assistance in the mission to bring Urantia further in its evolutionary
development with the goal of attaining light and life.
Monjoronson
(Jonathan TR): This is Monjoronson. I welcome the opportunity to be
with you and to receive your questions. This form of fellowship is a delight to me, and I look forward to our time together
today.
Physical Reactions to Meditation and
Stillness.
Preamble: Lately when I try to relax and meditate I feel tremors in the arms and shoulders;
also my fingers move lightly. But that already happened before when entering sleep. The only reference to such
jerks I could find is in a Christ letter attributed to Jesus in which he explains how to meditate. ½If this happens be thankful
as your consciousness is penetrating the barriers of your previously created consciousness forces encapsulating your soul.…
Question #1: Are these involuntary muscular movements the result of accumulated tensions? Will
they eventually disappear? Or are they a symptom of a beginning of a nervous disease?
Monjoronson: Thank you for this question. It is difficult for me to evaluate
precisely your condition, as the symptoms are indicative of various conditions present in the human body. You have illustrated
two, that being an indication of the onset of a neural disorder, the other having more to do with the intimate connection
of the mind through brain with the nervous system and the muscular structure.
As you enter into stillness and
elevate consciousness to a higher level there can be at times manifestations in the physical form. These manifestations
occur as the mind releases its grip upon the body. As consciousness turns inward the body is allowed to function in
an automated manner. It is through this process that meditation becomes health-giving, for the body is released from
mental tensions as the mind looks away or looks up or looks within. It allows for relaxation. It allows for rest.
As you continue your
practice of stillness you may find that in the development of higher consciousness and spiritual connectivity that your mind
bears less upon the body with tensions, and these symptoms both during meditation and while falling asleep will ease off or
disappear. However I also encourage you to investigate other causes, for any symptom does not indicate a single cause,
and if you should perhaps be developing a disorder it is wise to pursue examinations, for some causes are best alleviated
if addressed early on. Evaluation will put to rest your concerns, and you may then proceed in your practice of stillness
with the comfort that you are aiding of the health of your physical form and not ignoring it.
Thank you again for the question.
Life of iniquity
Question#2:
Is it possible for the lost sheep, or normal-minded evolutionary mortals on this planet of default since the days of
Pentecost, to make a perfect voluntary decision to deliberately lead an iniquitous life and thus lose their Thought Adjusters
here and now forevermore?
Follow-up question #3: Are un-perfected mortals
capable of making such a decision?
Monjoronson:
Again, thank you for this question.
Since Pentecost with the infusion in the minds of all mortals with the Spirit of Truth
it has become more difficult for a whole- souled iniquitous decision, that being the complete rejection of God and truth and
the aggressive pursuit of evil; for the Spirit of Truth continues to ring loud in the soul, ever bringing to light reality
and stimulating one's response thereto and the reaction thereof. That being said, however, the volitional center of
all human beings is sovereign. Each one of you, while amply assisted by multiple spiritual influences, presences, and
beings, has the ability to screen out or reject these powers, these personalities. If it were not so you would merely be a
mechanical function of the will of God at play in the universe. God has ordained all creatures of free will the power
to choose their actions.
On a world as confused as Urantia it becomes less clear the finality of such a decision
to become wholly detached from the divine, from righteousness, goodness. The lack of guidance upon your world has caused
great confusion, and some indulge themselves in such rebellious actions without the awareness that there are truly eternal
consequences, that the world upon which you live is not one of random actions, of non-consequential decisions. To some
the world is merely a playground in which to revel it up and then cease to be. The behavior of such individuals may
appear to be iniquitous while the soul has yet to reject spirit, for it does not know what spirit is that it could reject
it.
There are truly capable
ministers on high who can tend to misguided souls and offer guidance. The greatest import to each one of you is the
progress of your own soul, that you seek truth and beauty and goodness, and that as you expand your spiritual reality, as
you magnify your own divine presence, you will become a beacon of light illuminating other souls who are confused. Such
luminosity is also a protection of your soul if there should ever be one iniquitous in your presence, for the light is disturbing.
Those who misunderstand will taste the light and become curious and hungry. Those who reject the light will recoil and flee.
I hope this addresses
your question.
Interfaith Cooperation.
Question #4: Do you see the interfaith groups, those groups who were formed from different religious
faiths to improve something in the community, as the primary organizers of the proposed co-creative design teams and their
role in sustainability?
Monjoronson: I
do. While it is of great benefit to the progress of harmony and cooperation among all peoples on Urantia that various
groups work together, I also admire and honor the diversity of each group, for all groups address the needs of particular
personalities and minister to them in ways by which other groups are not organized to do so. Just as any well integrated
system functions precisely because it has distinct elements within it that provide specific functions that in the whole cause
the system to effect actions and accomplish work, so it is that these diverse groups are able to create an enlarged system
in which much good can be brought to humankind. The strength of each is offered to the whole. There are the corps
of angels who are specifically attuned to these interworkings.
You have witnessed such interfaith groups in your religious circles.
There are other such interconnections within your economic realms and your social realms as well. Such coordinations
are proving beneficial. As humankind leaves its eras of tribal divisions and clan warfare, even on the level of nations,
and begins to trust in interworking with one another, there will develop those connections with religion, science, economics,
and society. You will have an even higher co-creative structure. It will be another quantum leap in your ascent
as a planet to light and life.
Again I thank you.
The
Urantia Book as Evolutionary Religion.
Question#5: Do you view the present use of The Urantia Book as somewhat rigid, that is, using
it more like scripture to knock down alternative interpretations of what the book teaches?
In other words does it appear that
many Urantia Book readers are becoming more doctrinaire than carriers of truth by example?
Isn't this habit nothing really
more than the revelation in this book form becoming central to some type of evolutionary religion?
Monjoronson: This tendency is present within humankind as
is witnessed by the religions following any great sage or prophet in times past. When human beings encounter truth re-presented
or organized in a clearer statement there is the tendency to grab that and indoctrinate it such that the essence be not lost.
However when the essence is imprisoned in rigid form it loses its power, and there follows the parroting of the wording
that expressed the truth with little realization of its reality and a weakened impact upon one's living that truth.
When revelation is
expressed upon a world it endeavors to overlay a pattern that indicates the higher levels of spirit being, of universe reality.
This pattern is always adapted to the realm upon which the revelation is given. There will always be elements
missing which in subsequent ages would be more fitting to reveal.
Some look upon all expressions of revelation as
merely suggestions and go by their own way in discovering truth. This bodes well for some who are well skilled in discernment
and are highly attuned to the divine presence's guidance. But many, far many, benefit from the patterns expressed in
revelation and do well to adopt those structures to the extent that they assist the soul in attaining greater atunement to
the divine presence and greater sensitivity to eternal truth.
There will be those who will develop a religious
structure out of even The Urantia Papers, and there will be others who will miss the impact of its presentation by dismissing
it as yet another book of words, good in intent, but less that of guidance and more that of mere suggestion. They will
weaken its impact upon themselves and will miss many great benefits that could be derived from comprehending the pattern revealed
in its pages. Let us continue.
Philip:
The questioner seems to think that The Urantia Book is really becoming central to some sort of evolutionary religion.
Question#7: Would you care to characterize the type of evolutionary religion it may be heading
towards? Is this trend at all typical of what has been experienced in other epochal revelations elsewhere in similar planetary
stages as to what Urantia is currently experiencing in its cultural development?
Monjoronson: Indeed this evolutionary development of a revelation is repeating what has happened
to revelations of the past. It is human nature that such developments occur. This current presentation, The Urantia
Papers, while broad in its presentation regarding mankind and the planet and the universe in which the planet resides and
the deity over this universe which has made all things possible, has its own time limitations and locality constraints. It
will by such limitations end up being another step in the path to light and life. It will never be the all-said of what
is to come and what is to be realized. And that is where developing it into a rigid doctrine will infuse error into
the comprehension of its message.
It entered your world in one language, and many devout humans are translating it; it was
not given already in many languages. It entered your world in one culture, and it is up to the individuals who embrace
its message to re-culturalize it and present it around the world in forms apprehensible by other peoples. This is a
natural evolution, perhaps better said, a natural integration into the diversity of human beings and cultures on Urantia.
Since human beings
tend to form religion around revelation, eventually even this the fifth epochal revelation will run its course and lose its
immediate effectiveness as many of the others of centuries past have. But worry not, for there will subsequently be
bestowed upon your world the next revelation of epochal significance. In the meantime I encourage each of you to develop
your channel of revelatory receptivity, for under the umbrella of any epochal revelation are the many revelations to the individual
souls, to the philosophers, the theologians, the scientists, and all. This is the true vital power functioning in any
epoch. It will verify the patterns revealed, and it will enlighten the truth expressed.
Thank you again for your inquiry.
Philip: So, in essence it's not either/or,
revelatory or evolutionary; it's more like it's either/and. Correct?
Monjoronson: Yes, indeed. Revelation is a push, and evolution is the moving forward. To
some it may seem to lessen its special qualities, but functionally this must occur for it to integrate into the cultures of
the world.
Question #8: Will the Magisterial
Mission address this trend for The Urantia Book becoming more like a text for some evolutionary religion and make adjustments
on Urantia to make it more attractive to cultures outside of western traditions?
Monjoronson: Yes, I have somewhat addressed that in a prior response to the question earlier. We
will in no way ever prevent the free-souled creature from crystallizing revelation into a religious form; that is one's free
will to do so. And it is another aspect of the universal expression of the Supreme Being in all creatures. But
we will always look to those souls who have derived from those pages the universal perspective, the cosmic consciousness,
who can function with us in advancing the world.
The development of the planet is truly a journey. There are many who
are tour guides, advanced souls who can assist others down the path and move along with them. There are those who are
the scouts who move on way ahead of the general movement and discover many things and encounter many perils. Those scouts
may at times bring great assistance in providing direction as the world evolves and at other times encounter obstacles and
offer misguided direction and cause the planet a detour.
But besides scouts and guides there are also what
I will call the ³innkeepers², those who take care of the travelers at waystations along the way. You may liken this
to the development of a religion, a church, a doctrine, the crystallization of the expression of revelation, for in these
waystations a weary traveler may find stability, calmness, rest, and even rejuvenation as well as support.
But a living soul,
one seeking truth, when the morning comes will rise again and take its journey forward toward higher levels of comprehension
and higher ways of living. We will ever be looking to the scouts that we may safeguard their investigations and encourage
the discovery of higher ways. We will also ever assist those who are of immediate ministry to their fellows, the guides,
for you are the ones who are taking care of your brethren, and their welfare is as important as yours, in my view. We
will also be caring and loving towards those innkeepers who hold a standard of truth that others may attain. While they
may not progress themselves, they are still of great assistance to their fellows, and we will also be equally supportive of
their efforts.
Thank you for this question.
Question#9: Is the development of a second revelatory commission partly in response to The Urantia
Book becoming something that it was not intended to become, namely, a symbol for reform kept too exclusive for its purpose
to be easily realized?
Monjoronson: This
secondary revelatory commission is part of the natural plan of the whole revelatory effort. It is not in existence so
much because of the reactions of human beings; it is a subsequent phase of the initial commission which established the statements
preserved in your Urantia Papers. This commission, the second commission, is functioning to diversify the statements,
not in meaning, but in its asimil-ability to the various peoples of Urantia, for as you have indicated, it is western in its
initial presentation. Just as Jesus was Michael's revelation to Urantia, his Spirit of Truth may be likened to the second
commission of his revelation. When he stood upon the world he spoke great truths, many recorded and many in existence
today, but when he left and the Spirit of Truth was bestowed every individual could pursue the way of the master, could follow
him. This created great diversity in the gospel of Jesus. This diversity is not an indication of scattered-ness;
it is a revelation of individuality, of the divine manifested in each.
So the second commission regarding the Urantia revelation
may be likened to this secondary input of Michael to the form first of Jesus and second his Spirit of Truth.
I hope this illumines
your question.
Question #10: We are guessing that the Magisterial Mission
will become the oversight agency for revelation on Urantia after the mission's appearance here. Will the Magisterial
Mission become the sole administration for decisions to provide The Urantia Book to future Urantians?
How would you characterize
the Magisterial Mission's role in coordinating contemporary episodes of revelation to Urantia?
Monjoronson: I must first make clear that this Magisterial Mission and any subsequent
Magisterial Mission to your world is one to prepare transition to another era of planetary development. So the management
we overlay upon the progress of humankind is only that which is preparatory to the transition. It is not our focus to
establish behavioral patterns, organizations, or perspectives. While you as a planetary race make decisions and develop organizations
and societies and other groupings, we will work within those structures to foster growth, all with the goal of attaining a
status wherein you may transition into a new era.
We will not manage how The Urantia Papers will spread across
the world. I may liken it to the waiter who brings a meal to your table. That waiter delivers the dish and walks
away. You must do the consuming of the food. This waiter may return and ask how it is. Your response may
be likened to either the crystallization of the revelation as dogma, the rejection of it as untrue, or the acceptance of it
as truly divine.
But this waiter will also return and offer you desserts, or a subsequent phase of your
dining experience; that is what I am here to do, to offer you the next course in the meal with the eye that this next course
will be complementary to the course in which you are engaged.
I hope this addresses your question.
Scope of the Fifth Epochal Revelation
Question #11: Does the Correcting Time as Michael's umbrella of policies for the reformation
of Urantia contain more than just the Fifth Epochal Revelation to do this?
Monjoronson: Indeed it does, for Michael's purposes on Urantia entail every phase of planetary
development. These epochal revelations are keyed to every epoch. In your text you have been told of the seven
basic stages of planetary development. There will be subsequent epochal revelations until Light and Life when the planet
itself will stand as a revelation of the goodness of God and the culture will radiate the divine spirit in all ways.
While Michael partook
of the force in his bestowal, he has been ever watchful of all epochal transitions and the developments within each epoch.
I might add that he is doing so upon many worlds. There are also such stages we may liken to epochal eras on a
planet on every system and constellation under his guidance. Our Sovereign Son is quite busy and engaged in many facets
of growth in Nebadon. His management is broad, but he is also very concerned and lovingly engaged in every stage on
every world as it unfolds.
Philip: We
have one final question but I think you covered a lot of that. So that concludes this portion of the question and answer
session. As is our custom, we would like to allow time for you to use for any purpose you might have. Thank you.
Monjoronson: I will make a concluding statement.
As we have spoken quite a bit today regarding the impact of an epochal revelation upon a world and what may subsequently occur
as that revelation becomes integrated into cultures, I want to encourage each of you to be trusting of the divine presence
that resides within, for this is the true light which lights every man who comes into the world. It is the source of
verification and validation of what you encounter in any epochal manifestation of spiritual revelation.
Just as one, centuries
ago, could look upon Jesus and say, "Behold the man", expressing that within him the spirit moved and could recognize what
was, who was, standing before him, so you must look upon the revelations that come in your era with such an inner recognition.
A pattern has been
overlaid upon your world in which you may organize your thinking, your understanding, and your vision of the future. But
you are each free to express your personality. Again I take you back to the fourth epochal revelation of Michael as
Jesus and point to his apostles, both the male corps and the women's corps and the associated personalities with them. Each
one had its own perspective. When Jesus left the world each one undertook their own form of ministry. Some forms
became the religion that followed him, and other forms went on to merely impact single peoples in a perhaps non-historic way.
Trust the presence
within. Do what you can in your understanding of the revelation presented to your world. Remember it¹s presented
to the world in whole, in its entirety, and you are to adapt yourself to the aspects you can best express through your comprehension
and through your life. Others will grasp other aspects of the revelation and bring luminosity and magnification to those
teachings. The only form of revelation worth crystallizing is the form of revelation within yourself as it becomes your
soul.
Thank you again for
your questions. You are truly my beloved brethren. I cherish the time to be in fellowship with you all.
