Prayer: Larry: Dear Father thank you for this meeting. We come to you with an open heart, mind and spirit, may we hear the truths that your teachers speak. We pray for peace in the world. We pray that your love fills the hearts of the Palestinian people and the Israeli people that they may lead the world to peace. Father we pray that your love fills the hearts of the Al Qaeda and the North Korean Leaders that they shall also pursue peace and the doing of Your Will Father. We pray for all of the people of the world that are in need of Your Love Father, help us to grow in spirituality to help bring about a peaceful world. We also pray for our solders in Iraq for their safety and their soon homecoming.

Please guide us in doing Your Work; help us to do Your Will. Thank you for all of the blessings that You have given us. Be with us in our daily journey, in Michael’s name, amen.
JAREL: TR, George. Good evening, it is I, your teacher, JarEl. It is good to be back. Thank you Larry for that heart felt prayer. Much of what many of you think and pray for is heard. Peace shall arrive on this world when more people like you begin to desire a friendlier world. It is not enough to live in the world and conform to its standards. It is not enough to pursue your own selfish ideals. It is not enough to not worry about anyone else. For there to be peace in this world everyone must work together. Everyone must come together, for there to be peace in this world, men must put aside their selfish goals and give up their power for the greater good. Until that time happens there shall be people like you to remind the rest of the Urantians to continue striving for a peaceful tomorrow. It is important that you continue with this positive work that reinforces the faith in humanity.
Lesson
JAREL: Too many people often fall victim to the belief that the human race is going downhill, when in fact it is not. There are many positive things happening all around the world. However, it is difficult to focus on these positive things when the lens that you view it through is so filthy and stained with negative reinforcements. Be wary of the news that you receive from various sources, for they may not always be true. Search your hearts and your minds and come up with your own solutions for life’s problems. When you do solve your problems, be kind enough to share it with everyone else. Be kind enough to show them the way and show them how to solve their own problems as well.
To pray for peace is a worthy prayer, but in order for that to happen, men must act! Men must make decisions in their lives to manifest this destiny. It is not a simple thing and it is not simple enough to pray. Prayer can only take you so far, when you decide to act and you decide to make things happen in your life, then whatever prayer you may have will take form and shape and become something more than prayer. God listens to your prayers, but God also wants you to act. God urges you to manifest these wishes that you have. With just your thoughts you create something in your life. However, if you are not wise enough to understand the gifts that God gives you, you will completely miss these manifestations. Everything in life is an opportunity to grow and to learn. Every situation that happens to you will give you that opportunity to see something more. There are no accidents.
Follow your true path and continue to develop your personality, the one thing that is constant throughout your Universe Career. It is important that you recognize who you are and it is also important for you to recognize who you can become, your potential. Everyone has a potential, everyone in this world is capable one day to travel side by side with you to the Isle of Paradise. So even though you may come to have enemies in this world, which I hope you do not, those enemies may one day prove to be your best friends. So be wary of who you decide to dislike, it is not wise to do this. When Michael was here, he said it very plainly to all of you, “love your enemy.” Many of that day did not understand these words.
Many of that day even believe that these words were false. This generation is beginning to understand these words of the Master. These people are the forerunners of peace for you truly believe what it means to love your enemy. Soon you will see that you have no enemies for most of your enemies are manifestations of your own mind. Most of your enemies are within and it is true sometimes you are your own worst enemy. There are things that you may dislike about some person and most of the time it turns out that those things that you disliked about that person are those things you dislike about yourself. So if you come to a point where you hate everything that you are, you will hate the world and hence you will have enemies.
In order for you to do away with this notion of having enemies you must first learn to love yourself. Loving yourself is a very easy thing to do. Some may find it hard but it is simple. It is the simple act of forgiving the things that you have done, knowing that you are a child of God. You are not perfect not anywhere close to being perfect for you have a lot of room for improvement. Don’t beat yourself up for the things that you have done or the things that you have not done, for there is time for you to build your soul. There is time for you to fully redeem yourself, if you feel that you need redemption. In our eyes, from our point of view, we see all of you as children, innocent. Yet you fight and you argue, but all of this will one day pass. All of this immaturity will soon subside and your true spirit of humanity will rise, and we know that this day will come. Are there any questions?
Dialogue
Dennis: I have two questions. One, I have been reading about how spiritual energy is discharged and consequently spiritual energy must be replenished. Are there any techniques that we can use to replenish spiritual energy if we ever evolve to a point where we actually use spiritual energy?
JAREL: : TR, George. It you have come to the point of evolution where you are constantly using your spiritual energy, you have no need to worry about replenishing it, for the stream, the flow of energy is constant. It is an abundant source for it can never be completely used, it is forever streaming through the Universe of Universes. If you have literally opened up the floodgates of your mind and allowed all the spiritual energy to enter you, there would still be more spiritual energy to come. The question that you should be asking is how do I open those floodgates? How do I let more spiritual energy in? There is no shortage of spiritual energy and you could never use it all up, even if you tried. Does that answer your question?
Dennis: Yes, how do we open the floodgates?
JAREL: : TR, George. You must be patient my brother. You are on the correct path in your life. You are doing the right things for yourself. There is no need to worry if you will ever get to that point. I assure you that you will, but it is a slow process and it is a delicate process. It is a very intimate process that happens within you. Everyday you grow, everyday you mature and everyday you open up little by little. The illustration that I gave you of floodgates is an extreme radical thing, but growth of spiritual life is not radical at all. It is something that happens over years and years; something that grows within your mind that has time to ferment and to mature. The things you do and the things you decide in this life allow you to get to that point. You are getting to that point. The only way you can definitely measure it is if you look back to some point in your life and see how closed-minded you were back then and compare yourself to now, then you will see the difference.
Then you will see that those floodgates have opened a little more, it is a simple process of you growing and maturing. You are not aware of these gates opening little by little. For it is an unconscious thing that happens in your life. You only become aware when you look back and compare and examine your life through reflection, through observation, when you compare yourself to some earlier version of you. At that point you will literally measure who you were and who you are now. So my friend that is how you open those gates by continuing what you are doing. By continuing going forward and to grow as a person, as a spiritual being, as a morontia potential, as a father, a brother, a husband, a son and as anyone you can imagine. There is much potential in you and in all of you here and that growth is very observable. For I see it and my colleagues see it, and we are very much aware of how all of you have matured. We see this Teaching Mission maturing as well.
Dennis: Thank you. What can you tell us about the channeling of Seth?
JAREL: : TR, George. There have been various groups that have preceded the Teaching Mission’s Transmitting/Receiving. Many of them have delivered valuable messages to their followers. Remind yourself always that these messages must be filtered through a receiver, a channeler if you will. Depending on where this person is in their spiritual growth, these transmitters may not always be an ideal filter for these messages to come through. At times even this filter of which I am speaking through feels inadequate to receive my messages. Now given this sort of environment, some messages might seem extreme to many of you. Some messages might sound far off the mark and foreign. It is both the responsibility of the transmitter and the receiver to coordinate, to bring forth the most accurate information possible and to tailor the information for the group they are transmitting it to. If, for instance, any of this information is to go over your heads, then it is a failure on our part to bring forth a concise and understandable message.
If you were to go back and read much of what was said in these earlier transmissions of Seth and other transmitters you would find some truths within these transmissions and much you would not understand. So what would be your conclusions. Would you throw away entire transmissions because you did not understand them or would you put them away for later observations? I suggest to you to not put any definite conclusions on them just yet. For there is still much for you to learn, the world has yet to mature to a point where many of these far out concepts are understandable. Some of what you read earlier may not yet fit for this generation. That is why we strive to bring you information that is current and adequate for your lives at this moment. We are about Correcting and we are about improving your individual lives and the lives of all those who inhabit this planet. We do try.
Dennis: Thank you. I would like to request help in being able to receive? No comment is necessary, I just wanted to put that out there.
JAREL: : TR, George. Your intentions have been heard. We will do our best to prepare you for this request. Are there any other questions?
Lucille: When Monjoronson comes down is he going to have a list of lessons to give us? How are we going to be affected by his arrival?
JAREL: : TR, George. Are you speaking of the Magisterial Son, Lucille?
Lucille: Yes.
JAREL: : TR, George. With him comes a great power, but unlike the power that you are accustomed to. It is not a material power, it is not a power of this world, it is not a political power, nor is it a religious power based on institutions. It is a power that is unseen but it is penetrating and it will be felt by many and it will infuse people’s lives. It will inspire many people as well. The power that a Magisterial Son brings with him is so powerful that it can turn night into day. It will show light in you even when you have your eyes closed and it will shine light to the entire world and for the first time people will begin to see what is truly good and what is truly worthwhile. Inspirations will be abundant. No, there shall be no list of things to do and there shall be no list of lessons either. Lessons shall come as they usually come, spontaneous, just as the Master taught. It will be a better world, life will change dramatically. Life is beginning to change as we speak. The light of the Magisterial Son has arrived and it is present on this world. His light is shining throughout this world and it is constant. You asked Dennis if it is possible to use up the spiritual energy, now that the Magisterial Son is here there shall be even more for you to use. Await his presence for he shall soon be with you. I bid you all good night.
All: Thank you JarEl, good night.
