Subject: “The True Realization of Self.”
Received by Chris.
Teacher Ophelius: “Today’s message is about the true realization of self. What do I mean by this?
The true realization of self is the state of recognition that one has when the culmination of personality and spiritual awareness
becomes integrated into a new paradigm of philosophy about his or her existence as a part of creation -- that moment of realization
that one has become an ascending son or daughter of the Creator and their viewpoint of life widens to a juxtaposition of life
on earth, and life in the hereafter, as a related continuum of events that has a purpose and a goal to attain perfection and
function as a part of the whole. Simply stated, the moment the ‘part’ becomes aware of the totality of the
‘whole’ is the moment of true realization of self.
“For many of you, much of your life is lived in separation from the whole. Your thoughts are shielded
from this realization of self by social conditioning and survival instincts -- consumed by the ‘daily grind’ and
the distractions of material wants and entertainments. Often times it takes a great crisis to jolt the consciousness
out of its path of blind ambitions to realize that he or she is mortal and will be forced into a transition by the termination
of physical life. Only then do the thoughts of eternity and the continuation of identity begin to surface as a precursor
to this true realization of self. Unfortunately for many, these are fleeting thoughts that are soon ‘pushed under’
and filed away as something to think about in old age -- a travesty really. Still others will embrace this opportunity
to change their thinking and really begin to live life with this broader perspective of an eternal continuum. For these
souls, life then becomes precious.
“The development of your world is something of an oddity in the universe. Most worlds in Nebadon that
have reached this stage of technological advancement, as has Urantia, have also attained a much higher degree of spiritual
and sociological perfection, which better prepares the souls of that world for their next life on the morontia training worlds
of their local system. The true realization of self is something that is instilled in these individuals from birth and
continues throughout life.
“For those of you who have triumphed over this handicap of confusion imposed on you by the sin of rebellion
by your deposed caretakers in the Lucifer insurrection, have truly won your stripes and will become much sought after as valued
universe administrators in the ages to come. Your capacity for mercy and understanding of the evolutionary struggle
is paramount to great success and leadership as ascending sons and daughters of the Most High. With this in mind my
friends, keep this broader perspective and view of your life in eternal meanings and values while you gather your experiences
in the totality of the whole.
“Peace to you,

are the noblest paths to higher consciousness.”
