the basic points that team members could remember from Machiventa’s opening

their fears for change, whether good or disruptive, and the second to praise
those individuals who are in the process of making a new archive for the

and its remedy</span></u></p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left:0.5in">Following Machiventa’s opening
statements, the first question by Liz was from Jeff Cutler who asked why there
are so few TRs and how can this be changed. And he asks what will we do when Daniel
retires </p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left:0.5in">Machiventa’s answer was that few
mortals stay with the effort of learning to TR long enough to see
progress. They expect the process to
work immediately and give up trying when it does not happen as expected </p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left:0.5in">[At this point, the error was
noted and the recording was started as Machiventa was in the middle of
answering Jeff’s question.]</p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>MACHIVENTA:</b> …. As
you have been taught by This One in the Melchizedek Schools, you begin by first
surrounding yourself with the light of the Creator, the Thought Adjuster within
you, so that you appear to us as a glowing halogen light that glows with
immense heat and intensity.</p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">The “why” part of your question is intellectual and is
not something we care to engage in this time.
We hope that <i>what</i> I have
provided thus far would be of assistance to you and that you would take this
onto yourself as well, as others may engage speaking with us. The heart that we see in your question is
that there may be a need for further implementation at the level of teaching
more individuals how to TR in new schools that may develop for you. As you may recall, the last Melchizedek
School that was conducted was in approximately 2011, many years ago, and that
is most unfortunate, but [today] that is a matter of providing or satisfying
needs as they arise. It is not necessary
that This One become the facilitator of a workshop, though that has every
possibility. There are others who are
able and competent and capable of teaching how to TR as This One and we invite
you to begin. As implementation comes,
along with it comes the attendant assistance from us in a much more palpable
and direct manner so that you know that you have help with you.</p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><u><span style="color:rgb(0,112,192)">Is America headed for a
civil war?</span></u></p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>Liz:</b> Thank you very much. Jeff has another question for you today and
that is a “what” question: He says, “In
America we seem to be headed for a civil war.
If this is something that you foresee, what if anything, can we, the
readers of these transcripts, do to either stop it or prepare information with
the 7 core values to help in the aftermath?</p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>MACHIVENTA:</b> We do not foresee a civil war in your nation. That is the perception of individuals who
see, feel or sense the possibility of separation—those who have and those who
do not have; those in power and those who are not; those who have control of
the martial law capabilities and those who do not. Your question is exactly the point that much
of the Correcting Time and new programs have been developed, to reduce that
possibility to zero. As we have said
before is that democracies are a delicate flower of the growth and evolution of
civilization and processes of governance, and that when it is destroyed by
revolution, by civil war, then the capacity and capability of restoring that
democracy reduces down to 0.5% — that is one half of one percent in the next
decade. It simply is ruined, much as
virginity is ruined through the ecstasy of coupling. Some people see revolution as a process as
exciting as that. This is simply
untrue. Revolution and civil war are
incredibly destructive and regressive to our best efforts and the efforts and
development and growth of a true stable civilization. You are correct in that our work is to assist
in the process of reclamation, reclaiming those societies that have been
decimated by social upheavals, which do not have to be destructive. </p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">We do see social upheavals as occurring, but we do not
see civil war as one of those factors.
You can be assured that out efforts in the Correcting Time have been and
are intentional to thwart the destruction of the great progress of civilization
that has occurred. Many of you do not
believe that North and South America are continents of destiny; however this is
something that we have seen for millennia.
The separation of the continents reserved their development and gave us
the opportunity to experiment with new forms of society and governance and
economies. It is not that this allows
you to think of yourselves in terms of being chosen people. In the terms of some early Americans [that]
is “hogwash”; and if you know what hogwash is, you know that it is
corrupt. Such thinking is not workable
and does not assist us in the processes of developing evolving societies. Evolving societies are delicate and need to
be made resilient. The 7 values of social
sustainability does give your nations, states, counties, cities and families
resilience; it gives them capacity to reconstitute themselves after disasters
by leaning on and using the supports that have sustained your species for so
long. Thank you for your question. </p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><u><span style="color:rgb(0,112,192)">Cashing in your mercy
credits</span></u></p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>Liz:</b> Thank you for your answer. I don’t intend to dominate this section of
our session today, but I would like to turn the discussion a bit toward the
topic of mercy. It appears to me that
the readership of the <i>Urantia Book</i> is
aging; we do not have many youths reading the book, and the Urantia Book
gatherings that are being held seem to be more preaching to the choir than
outreach. In looking at my past youthful
indiscretions, even ten years ago, I do better when I know more, when I know
better. But guilt ravaged me and one of
the most amazing things that I read in the <i>Urantia
Book</i> was that humans will never even come close to cashing in all of their
mercy credits. While the idea—the
religious idea that Jesus dies for our sins, or we could go to a priest and be
forgiven our sins—doesn’t really do it for those who are spiritual and
searching, who are not religious. When
we look at truth, beauty and goodness and their action coefficients, if you
will, of love, mercy and ministry, we all understand love, we all understand
ministry, but I am wondering if mercy hasn’t been lost in the communication of
the <i>Urantia Book</i> message. I’m wondering, Machiventa, if this is
something that we should focus on in outreach, especially to youth, and if you
have any suggestions as to how to go about that?</p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>MACHIVENTA:</b> Let me ponder with my team about your
question and statements. (Short
pause.) There is a “pithy truism” that
you made in your statement, and you said that mortals will never come near to
cashing in on the mercy credits that they have with their Father and Thought
Adjuster, Christ Michael and Nebadonia.
Let us look at that first. </p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">One of the things that distress us most about mortals not
cashing in on these mercy credits is that you feel that you are unworthy and
undeserving, and that mercy is a “freebie,” and that you are unworthy of
receiving that “freebie,” and that you have to earn it. These are all cultural—the roots of feeling
undeserving are all cultural and mostly from the religious cultures of
Christianity. Much of what has come
about from actually refusing mercy on the part of some people is due to many of
the inaccurate interpretations of scriptures by learned individuals of religious
faiths. These interpretations have created
a corruption of the truth that Jesus—Christ Michael as Jesus—brought forward
during his mortal lifetime. </p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">The fullness of the mercy that is available to you truly
will not be visible to you, or appreciated by you, until your morontial career,
given the cultural setbacks that have been dealt to many of you in the last 700
years and longer. When you take into
consideration the consciousness that was developed through the churches’
interpretations for its own organization that people pay penance for their
forgiveness and the longevity and the energy invested in that cultural, ethnic
and race consciousness, it is very difficult for that to be erased. Your question is one of immense, huge
planetary dynamic that few truly appreciate or have seen, or know how to deal
with. And too, this mercy receiving is a
part and parcel of one of the reasons for the Correcting Time. Erroneous thinking as that needs to be
corrected or adjusted so that you feel worthy as a child of God to ask your
Creator for Its mercy. </p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing">The fact that you can ask for mercy is a wonderful
statement that you see yourself truly as a child of the Creator, and that you
are truly loved, and that the guilt that you feel is in need of being
evaporated and dissolved through the inspiriting of God’s love within you. When you sense and feel God’s love as this,
you are open and receptive to that healing.
One of the immensely powerful transpersonal events of religious
conversion is the acceptance of your unworthiness to receive this, but nonetheless,
it is willingly, lovingly given to you without condition. We hope that this is where you are now. </p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>Liz:</b> Thank you very much. That’s all I have today.</p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>MACHIVENTA:</b> As for the unanswered part of Jeff’s
question, do not be too assured that the days of transmitting by This One have
passed.</p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left:0.5in">[Note: Daniel may be taking a sabbatical from TRing
shortly.] </p>

<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><u><span style="color:rgb(0,112,192)">The talent of TRing needs
to be exercised</span></u></p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>Craig:</b> I’ve seen on the 11:11 list somewhat of a new
TR at one point, and I didn’t think much of him, but his messages became much
more interesting and improved over the course of the next few weeks, so it
definitely is a talent that has to be developed to be a TR.</p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>MACHIVENTA:</b> Yes, you are correct, and any talent, much
like playing tennis or swimming, is a skill that needs to be used and exercised. </p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><u><span style="color:rgb(0,112,192)">The need for mercy leads
to joy and bliss</span></u></p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>ML:</b> I have a question: In listening to the conversation here about
mercy, I would offer kind of a summary statement and ask whether you would see
this as being correctly focused and understood, or not. The summary statement would go something like
this: that knowing that it was because of [the] illusion of separation that has
a focus on forms of all kinds—institutions, churches and our bodies—and it
would seem that the Correcting Time will encompass seeing ourselves as
individualized expressions of The One, or Christ Michael. And in so seeing and feeling and knowing that
the need for mercy melts away into a place of joy and bliss. Your comment on that, please?</p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>MACHIVENTA:</b> Yes, as you move from separation into
oneness, you move into joy and love realizing that you are an expression of God
in mortal form, and that you are fully deserving and worthy of the mercy gift. What also ensues from that oneness is greater
union of action, thought and words on your part in relationship with others
that makes it such that you no longer need the mercy because you have learned
to live in a new way.</p>

for the Family Clinic prototype</span></u></p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>Roxie:</b> I have some questions on last session’s topic,
NET #14. The first one is: will you be
using this group to give instructions and assistance to the prototype clinic in
Colombia?</p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>MACHIVENTA:</b> Yes, most certainly, but more as guidelines rather
than specific instructions. We will be
using this forum, this group as a platform to express what we will be doing
though that will be more closely revealed as time progresses and the resources
are made available to do that.</p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>Roxie:</b> Is the research for the first clinic to be
done by any individual worldwide, or does it need to be done by co-creative
design teams?</p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>MACHIVENTA:</b> The work can be done by anyone with the
proviso that the individual or individuals who wish to do that would look to
their intentions and their vision for this work, and that their intention and
philosophy for doing this work and their missions would be in alignment with
ours. It is not necessary that the group
be a co-creative design team with a Melchizedek or some Celestial Teacher as a
Team Consultant, though that would be a wonderful development if that were to
occur.</p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>Roxie:</b> Concerning the research groups for the Family
Clinics for Sustainability, is there a place designated for collecting the
findings?</p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>MACHIVENTA:</b> This has not been put into place yet. This is part of the organizational
development work that needs to be completed.
By us revealing the development of these clinics and the process of
collecting data, and so on, this is our announcement to you and to the world
that we are engaged in the process of implementing those plans that we have had
in place for a great deal of time. The
circumstances of these developments are such that it is timely to begin. </p>

<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>Roxie:</b> Thank you very much. That’s all the questions that I had, however,
Machiventa, I have a terrible confession to make: I have been having great trouble with my
memory lately and today it showed its ugly face by my forgetting to turn on the
recorders at the beginning of the session, and I missed your entire monolog at
the beginning and I remembered to turn on at least one of my recorders when you
were about half way through your answer to the first question by Jeff Cutler. Is there any way possible that we can reclaim
your monolog from the beginning?</p>
<p class="gmail-MsoNoSpacing"><b>MACHIVENTA:</b> I am afraid not, Dear. We would ask that you ask your teammates to
assist you in this process of remembering to turn on the recorders. With the increasing loss of memory it is
required that these duties be shared with others, so that the outcomes continue
to be the same. We do see that you will
be able to continue doing the transcripts quite well and when not, then we will
make adjustments and ask you to continue to be forthright and self-evidencing
as you have just now, concerning your condition. We know this occurs with individuals and we
do not make assumptions and we do not dispose of faithful individuals in the
face of these developments. We thank you
for bringing this to your teammates’ attention today.</p>
