style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Thank you.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It is good to be here with you once
again as well.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Let us review the
history of the Correcting Time, just very briefly:<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>As you well know, Christ Michael is the
Creator Son of Nebadon and has particular attention on the planets that were in
quarantine, and eventually chose Urantia to be the home for his seventh
bestowal.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>That bestowal confirmed
his estimations that there would be some program needed for this world, and so
the plans that he had made before his bestowal were put in place as the
Correcting Time, which eventually came into being.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>The Triumvirate also includes
Monjoronson, the Magisterial Son, and it also became apparent on Uversa and
Paradise that a Magisterial Son would be needed to fulfill the program of the
Correcting Time, and so he was chosen and assigned, which he accepted
gladly.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Myself, I am the Planetary
Manager of Urantia, and so I am here today with you to put those three
relationships into perspective.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>Christ Michael is ultimately responsible for the welfare of all the
inhabited planets of sentient beings in Nebadon.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Monjoronson has completed his
fundamental work of establishing programs that would lead this world into the
Days of Light and Life.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>And I, the
Planetary Manager am here to fulfill those plans for Christ Michael and for
Monjoronson.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I am your Manager in
place to oversee this.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>This is why
you are seeing and hearing more from me now than from Christ Michael and
Monjoronson, and this pattern will continue, though they will participate
occasionally.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>In the aspect of Planetary
Management, we have sent our emissaries forward into the world so that we can
learn experientially through mortals more about your societies and how to
approach them in terms that would lead to social and spiritual evolution of this
planet and your societies.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>We have
explored South America to some extent, where we found that the family is well
developed as a bonded social unit within that continent.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>There are, of course, overlays of strong
religious opinions and beliefs, which cause some difficulties.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>But on the whole, the family structure
and the bonding that goes on, and the relationship between the members is
sufficient for us to use that as a pattern.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<H3 style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><U><FONT color=#0000ff size=3>New exploration

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>We have only recently
experientially begun to explore Africa, and particularly South Africa, where we
find that community building is at its utmost and its most fervent energetic
levels.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Their family structures,
however, are shattered and in great disarray due to the apartheid regimes and
belief systems that prevailed for so long.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>This country offers tremendous hope for community building and family
rebuilding, so that we can begin to work at the local level to rebuild family
structures and to build new communities.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>What is evident in that nation is the plasticity of a new democracy,
where no one knows all the answers and there is tremendous hope yet in that
nation at all levels of society that positive change will take place to improve
that nation’s social existence.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Its
democracy is also young enough and plastic enough to be molded into a
sustainable democratic process in time.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>There is existence of the old “good ol’ boy” system of power, control and
authority, which tends to prevail, though there are positive elements within the
society that counter balance that and see that the old regime is irrational and
unproductive, and in fact, pernicious and parasitical.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>What is exciting to us is that
this nation represents the best of the feminine efforts in the world to reform a
whole nation, that there are women leaders who are altruistic and who are
looking for a new pattern for re-establishing a new society of family and
communities.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>They have already
begun the team work, team development, though the teams in many regards need
improvement and which has been suggested to them to take on the mantle of social
sustainability and the three core values, and the team process, which uses
specific roles to engage the social problems and projects that they want to
develop.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>So, you are seeing within
this nation a possibility of tremendous social evolution within the next few
years.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>We have engaged this nation
and the women of it to begin to use the principles of social sustainability, and
particularly the three core values, and the three value-emotions [empathy,
compassion and “love”] to rebuild their society and to do so humanely.</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>It is not that other nations are
not prepared to take on this work; it is simply that we have been looking for
the most adaptable and amenable nation, socially, politically and economically
that is capable of rapid, positive social evolution, one that could set an
example for the rest of the world’s democracies.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>As you may be aware, one of the last
nations to engage social sustainability will be the United States, and other
well established democratic nations, which have in place embedded power
structures and hierarchies that are resistant to social evolution.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>They are resistant because social
evolution that is positive would displace them, or remove their hold on society
and therefore their control.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>This
will be a process that will take some time, and in fact, will require an
amendment, or an adaptation of the democratic process to do so.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>This will come later.</P>

Management, you have begun to see our strategic plan, and that is to approach

style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Thank you.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I would like to go back to the previous
talks to do with mental health issues.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>One of the things that I have been thinking about, and I was wondering if
you would mind discussing is “the power of thought.”<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I’ve always thought that the power of
thought is very, very important as to how people think, and how it creates their
own reality.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>My own thinking is
that I think thoughts are living energies, and that we have the ability to
choose either to use constructive thoughts in our lives, or the opposite,
negative thoughts.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>For my first
question:<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Would you please discuss
the power of thought in us as humans?</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><B>MACHIVENTA:</B><SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Certainly.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Thank you for your question.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You have gotten to the core of things
rather quickly, _______, that the power of thought is core to changing
yourselves, and changing your families, communities and your world, and all your
societies.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>The power of thought is
immense.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Most individuals, however,
do not see their thought as separate from themselves, that they do not see
thought as powerful, or as adaptable, or manipulable, or subject to
influence.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Until individuals begin
to see this intimate reality within themselves, that they are in charge of what
they think, then they are just simply cultural automatons who carry out the
belief systems of their culture.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>The power of thought is core to
your becoming who you will be.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>The
power of thought is ultimate to your becoming a morontial being, and actually
entering into morontial thought structures before your passing from this
world.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Individuals who are
self-observing and who wish to change their thinking begin to take
responsibility for what they think, and that they would direct the power of
their thought towards positive living and positive thoughts and positive
emotions that develop out of their thought and their beliefs.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Emotions then become the source of much
energy for all individuals on this plane and in their spiritual existence as
well.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>The power of thought is the
leverage of moving yourself into a more evolved individual, whether you believe
in God or not; whether you believe in an afterlife or not.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Surely secular thinking individuals
would want to have a more productive life.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>And this begins in their thinking.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>The power of thought is not apparent to individuals who are constantly
busy doing this and doing that, regardless of how intelligent they are.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>The power of thought is primary to who
you become.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Once your will-self
begins to harness the power of self, and your thoughts, then you can change who
you will become, and you can change who that individual becomes as a positive
contributing member to their society.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>The power of thought is primary to the expression of your consciousness
and the projection of your consciousness as a positive influence upon the
world.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>You, as well, and the power of
thought can also deflect those negative influences of consciousness towards you
by creating a thoughtful shield that reflects away those negative
influences.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Yes, this is psychical
in nature, but your thought under-girds and builds those structures psychically
and consciously in your life.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>What
you have hit upon is core to who you are, and who you will become.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Until you give appreciation to your
thought as being powerful, then you are easily influenced by the thoughts and
influence of others.</P>

but I am most willing to review much of that material and to explain it further
for you.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>You are firstly, as
Genesis said, “You are created in God’s image.”<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>That you are whole and complete unto
yourself, and that as you are whole and complete, you reflect the eminence and
authority of God when you are in alignment with God’s thoughts and you
understand the God presence within you.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>Your will-self is not synonymous with the presence of your Thought
Adjuster within, though they work in concert with each other.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Your will-self is the superconscious
aspect of yourself that makes decisions that are more removed from mundane
ordinary life, and that helps you evolve.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Your will-self is the
command-self that says, “I will to do this,” whether it is to delay
gratification in order to grow, or whether it is to take a class in another
language to learn a new culture and the way of thinking of other nations.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Your will-self is mostly concerned with
the evolution of your soul, its completion, its fullness, its wholeness, so that
you when you graduate from this mortal life, you will enter into the very early
stages of the morontial life and living and be an advanced individual in some
classes.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Your will-self consummates
the best efforts of the power of your thought.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>For God-believers, when your will-self
is in charge of your life, then your thoughts are in alignment with that of your
Thought Adjuster and your will-self chooses—<I>willfully chooses</I> to do God’s
Will, and <I>willfully chooses</I> to give over to your Thought Adjuster the
control of your thoughts.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>This is
very powerful!</P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Many of you have ideations that
emanate, that have their origins in your early childhood, where you were
subjected to authority and to the meanness of human life, and so you carry this
ideation around with you, mostly unconscious until you become aware of your own
thinking, and through your will-self and your Thought Adjuster, you can pinch
this out of your life; you can make it diminish so that your thoughts are
constructive and positive, that your mental ideations are positively constructed
of a person who is moving into their morontial life.<SPAN

consciousness, slowly.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It is easily
influenced by its environment; even the social and emotional environment outside
of the mother.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>The thoughts and
words and emotional energies of others, as well as that of the mother, begin to
imprint themselves on this very malleable mind mechanism.<SPAN

peace, to be in harmony, not to be in fear, but to be in happiness and gladness
and joy at living in life and to see their life experience as in balance, if
only for the welfare of the unborn child.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">

become a part of prenatal and preconception education and training for mothers

have collectively, as more and more individuals are influenced positively.<SPAN

many other societies that are at war, that adversity, social destruction and

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>The positive influence of parents
can be mighty when there is a concerted effort between the mother and father to
project kindness and love and joy to the child, to see them working in an
orderly fashion in their society.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>The children then grow up with this envelope of consciousness of order
and timing around them that brings harmony to their life and to the structures

health issues.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>This is most
unfortunate, as their life then becomes one of great struggle to overcome the
illness while also striving to become mentally healthy and well balanced, even
while trying to overcome the vicissitudes and difficulties of ordinary everyday
life.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Learning, therefore, becomes
three dimensional—or four dimensional in many ways as they are confronted with
difficulties on many levels simultaneously.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>The great difficulty is that once a
predisposition to mental health problems is overwhelmed by life’s circumstances,
that predisposition becomes evident.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>It requires great effort on the part of the individual to then knit their
life into wholeness where they become able to overcome further difficulties in a
positive, constructive manner.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>As
we have said in prior sessions concerning mental health, there are many types of
mental health difficulties through many of your families and genetic strains,
and that these become evident during times of great strife, individually.<SPAN

style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Machiventa, in observing children
throughout my adult life, I noticed that some children have great imaginations
and can entertain themselves for hours on end, where other children have very
little imagination and need constant interaction with other people who have
skills in leading them.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It seems
like having an imagination would be a definite plus, however I wonder if it
leads to having a busy mind in later years?</P>

style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Your question is multi-faceted.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I will begin with the first segment of
your question.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>An imagination, as
you have seen in evidence, is prima fascia evidence of an evolved mind.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It is evidence of one who is capable of
engaging many facets of their own thinking, that in many ways, they are already
using their mind mechanism in ways that are positive and constructive.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>This is where the parental model comes
in very well.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>The parental model
allows and encourages the free-thinking of the child, and gently guides that
imagination into positive and constructive ways of viewing their life around
them, the physical aspects and social aspects, which can be moved and changed
through the imagination of the child.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</SPAN>This is creative ideation at its very best.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoBodyTextIndent> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoBodyTextIndent>The assistance of the
parents then becomes necessary so that the child does not use their imagination
as an escape mechanism from the realities of life, as a child in a family
situation with responsibilities and obligations to the family and to school, to
academics and their extra curricular activities.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Parents then have the necessity of
guiding the child in positive thinking, in use of their imagination to then
create positive outcomes in their schoolwork, or in their creative
endeavors.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Children should not be
left on their own during these formative years to create whatever reality that
they need.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoBodyTextIndent> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoBodyTextIndent>Children who are burdened
by life often become distracted by many elements around them, and are not able
to manage or to train their thinking processes to continue their constructive
imaginative processes.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Do not
confuse this development with attention deficit disorder, as those are different
elements.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>The imaginative mind of
the individual can evolve to become a highly creative individual in their life
in almost any endeavor they would choose to take on, whether it is to write
music and become a highly creative musician, or as a painter, or as an
architect, or even as a academic who is studying social structures and social
evolution of societies.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoBodyTextIndent> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoBodyTextIndent>It is important that
parents see that they are responsible for making positive contributions to the
mental and emotional evolution of their child, and particular to engage the
children on all seven planes of existence, so that the child can choose how to
expend their energy in what fields that they choose, that they wish.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>This way, the individual child can grow
into becoming a highly adept professional, or a highly skilled parent in their
own right.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I hope this answers your
question; if not please ask more in depth questions.</P>

“participating public” (those truly interested in its endeavor) be able to seek
and obtain truly reliable “Genetic” testing information about themselves (and
their partners) to be able to reliably make a truly informed good decision if
they can/should, have/produce, children/offspring?”</P>

style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Thank you for your question.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It first begins with the individual to
investigate the availability of those services.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Genetic testing now can be very
inexpensive to very expensive. This One was reading just this morning that a
complete reading of one’s genome can be accomplished within approximately one to
two days at a cost of $3,000.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Yet
it depends on what you are looking for in your genetic makeup.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>If you have an idea of what you are
looking for, then this will greatly assist in the analysis of your genetic
structure and lessen the costs and the time required to do so. <SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Genetic testing can be as simple as
taking a sample at home and sending it to a laboratory for a cost of less than
$100.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>More capable tests cost more
money.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>When you consider the cost
of having a child that you must care for 24/7, around the clock, a test of $300
- $500 would be extremely inexpensive in comparison to the cost of raising a
child who will never go to school, but remain disabled and at home.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoBodyTextIndent> <o:p></o:p></P>
<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoBodyTextIndent>It requires more
education on yourself to become aware of what you are looking for in your
genetic analysis, and then seeking out information as to what is available, and
then finally to have an appointment with a genetic counselor to predetermine
what you are looking for and how to search for, and what it might cost, and what
the repercussions of those tests and analysis may find.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>The core of genetic testing is to have
an accurate analysis, and then a reliable counseling and advisement by a
professional.</P>
