*       Aaron (Bob TR): Greetings to you, my friends, I am Aaron. 
It is my pleasure to be here today to speak with you.  Equally it
is warmth producing to recognize your luminous souls, my fellows
and longtime companions. 
        I would for a moment speak to you regarding the plans for
developing light and life upon your world.  We teachers have
initially a strong sense of unity in our efforts, and yet, as you
witness the threads of unity coming forth in our messages to you,
as well you witness a diverse interpretation,  none of this
diminishing the reality of our united effort.  Much of the diver-
sity that you witness, however, is born in the human element of
our partner-ship; in our interactions we are fairly consistent
with messages we provide.  Yet the manifestation from the spir-
itual to the material outcome brings a certain level of
distortion.  What we have in our functioning we intend to see re-
flected in those we function with.  And we do indeed recognize
increasingly the reality of your unity of purpose even while the
translation gets mixed reviews.  
        As you proceed in your development of attitude recognize, if
you would, that your greatest promotion for this reality of our
combined function would be the increasing manifestation of this
unity while maintaining individual attitudes regarding the ex-
perience, while pursuing personal comprehension of spiritual
realities and displaying them in your manner.  
        At this time I would transfer to your guide to further
complement the views for this morning.  I will remain present in
case of any inquiry following.
*       Elyon (Jonathan):  Again I greet you with love.  This is
Elyon speaking, and, as I always express, I am happy to be with
you and to be with my longtime teacher associate Aaron.  Of
course I meet with him more often than you are aware, though by
now I trust that you suspect such things.  I am pleased to be the
one to present to you insights we may have that are in resonance
with your growth needs.
        Today what I have to share I will let Darid say, for he has
good understanding of this subject, being one who knows firsthand
what a harmonious planet operation is like.  
*       Darid:  This is Darid, and I will share this insight.  You
know the phrase, "Doing the will of the Father is nothing more or
less than the exhibition of creature willingness to share the
inner life with God."  I ask you to ponder this version: 
Contribution to the Supreme is nothing more or less than the
exhibition of your willingness to share outwardly your inner life
with your brothers and sisters.  The unity to be realized in this
world is the understanding of the unique relationship every child
has with our Creator, and this is realized in the sharing of our
inner life with our fellows.  The unity becomes overtly
recognizable.   Each individual discovers the Father in his own
heart and soul, but to realize the camaraderie of kinship, we
must discover this same Father in others.  This discovery removes
the conflicts that arise from misunderstanding. 
        Light and life is an efficient behavioral attainment that
recognizes appropriately conflicts of beneficial nature and those
that stem from hasty misunderstanding.  The lessening of conflict
in advanced planetary civilization is not the reduction of the
quantity of conflict but rather the clear distinction between an
official conflict and disruptive agitations.  Clear discernment
of the two and proper reckoning with each one is an indicator of
cultural development and returns me to my opening point: that
your willingness to share with your fellows promotes the cross-
educational enlightenment that all of you on this world need in
order to better understand each other, not an understanding that
comes from knowing what your brother means or having a sympa-
thetic reaction based on what is meaningful to you, but rather
perceiving your meaningful pursuits, your basis for
understanding, in the light of the Father and His supreme
presence.  It is another triangular relationship.
        I thank Elyon for instigating my vocal appearance to you
today.  I can be one content to observe and act upon my
observations.  I, too, will be receptive to questions as are
Aaron and Elyon.  
        Evelyn:  That was excellent.  It ties in with what we had
discussed about intolerance.  If we seek to understand each
other's inner experience, then even that hypothetical abusive
neighbor is someone we can approach far more effectively.  It's
not an issue of intolerance of the person.  
        You refer to a triangle relationship, and I'm trying to
figure out what are the corners.  Would it be finding God within,
finding God in others, and then what?  Finding God everywhere? 
What is the threefold relationship you were talking about?
*       Darid:  I refer to understanding another individual from
their view-point, understanding another individual from your
viewpoint, and understanding both your perspectives from the
Father's viewpoint.  Yes, intolerance can be an issue of less
importance when you approach one who irritates you through their
behavior by sharing your inner life rather than a motivation
seeking to correct their inner approach to reality.  When you are
certain of your inner relationship, you are more confident to
display this relationship for another to witness, with full trust
in the power of the presence you experience within, that this
same power can be witnessed by another being, your fellow who is
equipped with all of the same spirit ministries. 
        The issue that you have conflict with is not the factor to
apply intolerance toward; it is the individual to whom such mercy
is offered.  But your disagreement with the issue is not indica-
tive of an emergency situation calling for immediate reparations
or rectifications.  The stir within to counter is the indicator
that you have the obligation in this Supreme age to share your
understanding with love, that any correction is in the hands of
the Father within the individual to bring to that personality's
volitional table to be acted upon.  
        One of the more powerful ministry forces you have is the
ability to convey to another the significance of living in
relationship with God and having this relationship as a reflector
upon which you can discern the import and value of any situation. 
Awakening this in another will not only help to solve the issues
you have with that individual, but will ripple into solving many
of their conflicts, as you have witnessed in your own life hand
in hand with the Father.  
        Evelyn:  Elyon mentioned that you were familiar with a
harmonious planet.  Does this mean you experienced growing up on
a light and life world?
*       Darid:  My training has exposed me to several spheres that
function in a light and life operational way.  I have taken time
to specialize in that particular cultural standing.  Some other
teachers have specialized in the dysfunction of rebellion and
bring their expertise to this world for corrections.  I am here
with other teachers who are representing the goal.  This is what
was meant by my introduction.  
*       Aaron (Bob):   I would mention on reversal that coming from
a planet in light and life, I, similarly on the reverse, took an
interest in quarantine affairs.  Therefore I have specialized in
interactions among dysfunctional systems.  The complementary
nature of our roles here on Urantia, Darid and myself, symbolizes
the completeness of our efforts and the unity of purpose with the
diversity of outworking of the similar goal of light and life. 
The emphasis on the goal which Darid has specialized in observing
was a goal that I inherently lived with, while at the same time
my emphasis on discovering the roots of the dysfunctions in
behavior as a result of rebellion was to complete in some manner
my knowledge of the potentials and how to minister to those in
such a state so that they may obtain the same goal which other
teachers and guides reflect and portray.  
        Jonathan:  Aaron, do you have some input on the regional
conference for us to consider?
*       Aaron:  I would that a good time be had by all.  To further
expound on this I would say that your efforts to date are fairly
well outlined and from your own perspective, the human perspec-
tive, the gathering needs no more large degree of input by
ourselves.  The ministry of the actual coordinations will bring
forth an enjoyable experience.  I would say that we, your teach-
ers, are intending to have a larger degree of input regarding our
role with you in this gathering.  Minearisa is here and would
like to speak, so I will transfer.  
*       Minearisa:  Greetings to you, I am Minearisa, instructor in
residence to the Pocatello, southeast Idaho, teacher base.  I
would like to signify my intention of participating with your
discussions with the melchizedeks at your gathering.  We do
intend in some manner to outline and to lay forth some vision
regarding the future outworking of this area in its efforts to
manifest the mission of Michael on this world.  In no small part
do the melchizedeks gather and do we intend to function here so
that some of the confusion, the unanswered questions, may be
offered some perspective.  We feel interactions with the
participants will prove most beneficial, rather than individual
presentations to the individual groups.  This combined presen-
tation signifies our recognition of the individuals and the
individual groupings as a combined whole and functioning unit in
some manner.  On this occasion we will most certainly attempt,
among other things, to present to you as a whole even while we
administer and respond individually.  It would be wise for the
notification to those attending to search forth the questions and
thoughts they have regarding this mission and how they can best
perceive their future efforts both as individuals and as
individuals in a partnership. 
        Jonathan:  Should we collect these questions beforehand, or
should we just suggest that they think about it and bring
questions with them? 
*       Minearisa:  Yes, the need is not pressing that this become a
formal exercise.  We intend to present to the whole and to
receive from the whole as a body, as so often we work individ-
ually with you.  This will be an experiment of some sort of a
collective effort at gaining clarity and illumination regarding
combined outworking and vision, not so much an individual min-
istry here as focusing on the community.  If the community is to
be most effective in participating in these discussions, they
will have notification so that they may prepare and have some
idea what they can include in the community effort.  So, more to
seed and less to structure, if this is clear for you.  
        Jonathan:  I'd also like to share an insight from your
speaking on individuals, groups, and the larger grouping.  One
way we seek a sense of wholeness is to remove our authorities,
our duties, until we are all just children of the Father, and
therefore we can see how whole we are together.  Individuals make
up a group.  Our Northwest group is individual.  Likewise is the
planet, superuniverse, up to the master universe which is
individual, yet we are whole.  
*       Minearisa:  Your awareness is complemented by me for truly
we are working with individuals at every stage of grouping all
the way to Paradise.  The true recognition of complete wholeness
cannot occur prior.  So it is important these distinctions and
that individual effort is recognized at each stage as having
specific function with regard to the whole that it is partici-
pating within.  But that also in the reverse, the recognition of
wholeness within a community can attend at each level along the
way at the areas of community on the individual group level, at
the regional level, and so forth.  Those two awarenesses inter-
twined is what truly manifests personality and freedom with an
assurance of their relationship to the divine, the awareness of
individuality and belonging.  
        Jonathan:  Excellent words, thank you, Aaron. 
*       Minearisa:  Minearisa.  
        Jonathan:  Oh, sorry!  A case of mistaken individuality.
*       Minearisa:  Simeon chuckles and so do I.  
        Evelyn:  I was asked to bring up this question:  If Lucifer
is no more, what about Caligastia and Satan?
*       Minearisa:  There may be a dual response here, but I would
like to respond.  I am Minearisa still.  
        The rebellion is over.  In actuality the repercussions exist
and are hopefully going to continue this path of diminishment as
the years unfold.  Actually it will; it is not a question of
whether it will.  The actual status of any rebel on an individual
level is not relevant, but I will respond by saying that there
are no rebels free roaming the universes.  No longer are there
any here on Urantia nor anywhere in Nebadon that would be
considered uninterned.  Yet, I cannot make an absolute statement
regarding the actual status of any particular rebel due to the
fact that the Ancients of Days may have decreed and followed
through.  I would say that public statement of such action has
occurred for certain personalities but remains to be announced
for others.  This does not mean it has not occurred, it simply
means that we do not know for sure.  Nevertheless, no rebel
remains free in Satania.  
        Jonathan:  In that light, we have read in the UB that those
not seeking eternal life become as if they never were, and
there's reference to some rebels, as well.  Would it be a good
stance for us to pick up and move on without feeding into the
realities of the past, by associating our rebellion repercussions
directly back to a personality who may not exist anymore?  Or
would it be better to keep in mind such rebels?  I can see
keeping in mind the effects of rebellion.  When do we continue on
as if they never were?
*       Minearisa:  To those who refuse to receive the divine will,
to follow the leading of the divine, who hold no interest in
fairness, justice, mercy, forgiveness, equality, in the eyes of
the universe they already are as if they never were.  Therefore,
as you become aware of these perspectives at that point should
you cease to speculate or consider such things regarding their
impact upon your lives.  The most sure way to erase the effects
of the insurrection is to live your life without their influence
guiding your behavior in any way, to the extent that it is
possible for you to live beyond.  You need not concern yourself
with actual status.  In your manner to separate, as you say, the
personality from the reality of planetary and universal problems
would be quite highly thought of as an avenue to pursue.  
        Is there anything else I can add to this?
        Jonathan:  I am satisfied. 
*       Jessona (Jonathan):  This is Jessona, and I would wrap up
our gathering today with the comment that I would like to offer
as an exercise for you this week, one that I would hope would be
elevated in importance to the level at which you regard the
practice of stillness.  This is friendship.  When you are in
company with others deepen yourself as you associate.  Try to
recognize the camaraderie that you have.  Reflect even fleetingly
on the value of such relationship.  Understand in this exercise
the certainty of your friendship; your recognition creates the
stability.  Then while you are in the company of those you
perceive to be less of the friendly sort, make the effort to feel
that friendship experience you already retain in your soul
transcript.  Bring it forward and make the effort to outwardly
realize this same experience.  It will not be a successful
occurrence the first, second, or third time just as stillness is
difficult.  But it will work its way into your habit patterns and
will greatly expand your direct experience of the Great Family. 
        I now take my leave.
