Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “The material mind of a human being disappears after death. Every experience of eternal value is kept forever by the Thought Adjuster. Evidently, a more spiritual life is much better remembered on the Mansion worlds than is a life dedicated to material pursuits. A life dedicated to selfishness and self-satisfaction will be nothing but a nebulous dream in eternity.
“Today many are worried about the appearance of their bodies, the amount of material goods they possess, their social status, and the public praise of their deeds. These concerns never remain beyond mortal life. After awakening on the morontia worlds, you will not remember any of the achievements or perceived deficiencies you experienced on an evolutionary world. If today you are the most powerful person in this world, or the least significant, after awakening on the next level of your existence you will not remember any of this. Therefore, why spend your energy worrying about these things? If you already have enough to eat, to wear and to take care of your family, it would be more productive for you to focus your efforts on accumulating experiences of eternal value and learn the lessons that will serve you during your eternal life.
“Even among material endeavors you can find experiences of eternal value. It is possible that those have very little in the material sense may have used this experience to learn how to be content and trust in the care of the Father. For these mortals, poverty during their material lives will be a lesson for their eternal lives. It is also possible for those who have abundant material goods to use their wealth to help their peers and move civilization forward. For these mortals their material wealth will also become spiritual wealth.
“But if the poverty of your material life makes you forget that you have a spiritual Father who sees all His children as equal, then your material poverty will become spiritual poverty and you would be ignoring a great opportunity for growth. Similarly, if your material wealth becomes the master of your decisions and the fear of losing it darkens the light that tries to shine within your being, you will truly lose everything at the end of your material life. The conditions in which you live today are irrelevant because the benefits of eternal value that you could achieve during your time in this world will always depend on your personal decisions and how you want to live your life with what has been given to you.”
