Opening
MALVANTRA: I greet each of you today as a fellow in service to Michael, our sovereign son. As one who resides in the association of Melchizedeks, I come to you fully cognizant of my duty to represent Michael’s message to this world, free that you may choose to accept without coercion and without enticement. I am Malvantra.
Lesson
Upon this small planet, it has been too long fostered the view that you are not received into the kingdom of God as Michael described it until you exhibit willingness to accept conditions which qualifies you to become a son or daughter of God. This, my fellows, is a viewpoint we seek diligently to correct. Michael came to your world to assure your doubts that you are as now already a child of the heavenly father. You thought to displace the notion that you must win his favor. No, in reality the only favor you must gain is you own favor of self. This acceptance, this acknowledgment of your birthright, of your spirit placement is vital toward the fostering of the forward momentum of Urantia as it emerges from its rebellion status into the liberty of a world evolving in supremacy, one no longer resisting the natural unfoldment of spirit within personality.
In honesty, deep within your soul you can know assuredly of your sonship, your daughter ship, and this in spite of your frailties and flaws as a time space creature. The bestowals of Michael, while elevating him to Master Son, also exhibited that every creature in Nebadon is capable of acquiring the same perspective he adhered to in his life at each creature level. He did not come into incarnation as a favored child. He came equal, as all others on any one of those worlds. He accepted this cultural context. He reckoned with the evolutionary status of the civilizations of the times. And through all, he assumed and then asserted his belonging as son of God in the family of God, under the sovereignty of his heavenly father.
His life upon your world did not unfold as one orchestrated by celestial powers. It unfolded just as you experience life this day. Events contributed to his purpose and others thwarted his goal. Never did he dismiss his value as one loved by God. Ever and always he accepted his sonship, and in this assurance he pursued his goal. He aggressively grappled with the hindrances and distractions of his daily life in order to make way for the attainment of his goal.
On a world like Urantia, though disheveled by the confusions of an errant philosophy of a fallen son, too much value is placed upon your performance, ignoring your value in identity, your value as person regardless of performance. Performance does not make the creature holy. Holiness emerges from the creature as performance.
You were born upon this planet, and with no resistance you accepted your first breath of life. And with no resistance you grew physically and mentally. Some of you reared in conducive environments also with no resistance accepted your spirit status, young and childlike, and progressively more mature. Others have faced the hurdle of cultural impediments to this spiritual acceptance.
I come to you to underline the reality that you are the almighty God’s offspring, loved and nourished. All you wish in all ideal to perform in service to Michael you are capable of because of your belonging. Each undertaking will succeed or fail depending upon the circumstances of time and space, the context of your expression.
Never does this threaten your value before God. You will never receive your pink slip of termination in the heavenly kingdom for performance given with sincerity, honesty and ear, eye and heart focused upon your creator. Every success energizes you and confirms your undertaking as worthwhile in the unfoldment of spirit upon this planet. Every failure in multifold strengthens you, adjusts you, and equips you for future success.
As you come to realize the permanency of your placement within the kingdom of God, you no longer spend time grappling with such uncertainties. Now it is an adventure of pursuing the highest you can conceive of spirit reality, and adjusting your talents and skills to better apply yourself to the realization of such lofty ends. Performance is the result of your wholehearted acceptance of self before your creator. It does not create your status; it is a ramification of the enlightenment in your mind of your true status as child of God.
I conclude my remarks here this hour and I am willing to receive your comments and questions.

QUESTION: Malvantra, recently I was at a conference with planners and architects where they talked about how to design our homes and habitat according to some knowledge that came from the Vedas. These are specific formulas that create our households and our living environments to be more spiritually receptive, more conducive to a harmonious lifestyle based upon orientation of our habitat to the sun, as well as magnetic forces. Is there any validity or any further expression that you can give to that?
MALVANTRA: Your spirit is fully independent of those things material in time and space. It is free from being conditioned by such order of reality as the physical. However, that being said, you are not simply spirit. You are indwelled by the pure fragment of Father God. But you are likewise encircuited in the Mother Spirit mind energies and you dwell upon a world enshrouded in magnetism, bathed in solar winds. Your very bodies pulsate with electronic energy and the dynamics of the chemistry of fluids.
These effects you find impinging upon you daily and they can be arranged to enhance your sensitivity to the pure spirit resident of the Thought Adjuster. The divine fragment has no need to use these arrangements of time and place. Working from the exterior to the interior these can contribute to your personal orientation and upliftment.
Some of the formulas developed are based upon experience of personalities long ago. Others are artifacts of construction by imaginative minds who had not experienced true contribution of impact upon spirit alignment. While you research the records, that which others have experienced or developed, it falls to you to ever test such conditions through personal experience, and to accommodate what works, and to discard the erroneous.
While you are yet housed in a physical vehicle, you will ever be affected by physical conditions, such things as simple as the warmth of the sun or the chill of winter, and even more subtly into and by the arrangement of your dwelling space.
On the worlds of the mansions, you will enjoy the refreshing accommodation in the physical surroundings of spirit, spirit energy. Beauty is magnified and beauty energizes the soul. Beauty is the spirit smile of the soul. I salute your for efforts to make your environment contribute to the upliftment of you, a spirit being.
Michael, as your Melchizedek servant, I pledge ever to be of assistance to my human associates here on this planet of your bestowal. You are my supreme Lord and these your children are my supreme responsibility. I receive your trust. They too welcome your embrace, and the assurance of your acceptance of them as your children. May we work ever and always for the welfare of our fellows in need, those with uncertainties, those with fear. May our love and our light penetrate the hearts of our associates, and illuminate the mind with the glory of the enlightenment of the unity of all in the spirit family of our Universal Father.
Closing
I now withdraw from this point of contact, Jonathan. Thank you my fellow associates in the correcting time for Urantia. Farewell.
