TR: Mark Rogers
Opening
Prayer: Divine Parents please look down with favor on this group, this organization at this hour. We seek to form a circuit not only with each other over this mechanism of this conference call but as well we desire to form a circuit with you, our Divine Parents and all those who are entrusted with our watch-care. We open up our hearts to all that you would bring to us in this hour. We welcome you into this circuit that we form, we ask that you join us and lift us up. Bring us your grace and your peace and your love that we may be lifted up, raised up in our consciousness, elevated in our awareness. We ask this of you knowing full well this is your desire as well and therefore we no less than expect it to be so and we would thank you in advance.
Machiventa: I am Machiventa and I welcome your invitation to join you in this forum. I appreciate greatly that each of you extend yourselves in faith to meet here in this my classroom. Each of you who are here are my students although often times I function in more a role of headmaster than I do as instructor, nevertheless I consider you each my charges in this new and exciting process we are creating even in this hour.
Lesson
It is thrilling to see souls come together over what is a new technique on our world for implementing the plan of Michael to bring this world into correction. This new technique we are developing together is utilizing the best of technology and spirit to step this process forward. I understand that there are aspects of this format which are ??? and I appreciate that this causes you to extend yourselves in faith to function in this capacity but it is exactly you who I am seeking to work with, you who would extend yourselves to meet me here and perhaps in other venues so that we may together create this next realm of reality.
I have been given a mandate to implement this training process for all who would have ears to hear and I look now and witness eager souls, bright lights each one, signing on to this new teaching program in their hearts and following through with their actions, the allocation of their time. This is all that is required of these students of light, that they bring themselves to this process of free will choice and then allocate their time and resources to follow through with the program.
This is all any teacher or professor could ask of any of their students, that they be not only willing, but eager. Many of you have the sensation of a great many things astir in your world, indeed in the universe and you are correct. Very much is astir. We are in fact extremely privileged to be not only witnessing but participating in what will be known as Urantia’s final turning point. You look around your environment and you are aware that there is imbalance and there are inaccuracies in the portrayal and manifestation of the nature and character of your Divine Parents here on this world.
This is where you come in. This is the role given you to play, to manifest the highest reality you are aware of, to bring forth to our world a greater understanding of divine nature through your manifesting that nature. Many many points of light are needed to dispel the darkness on our world as each point of light can disperse large amounts of darkness. It is not about waiting for a great leader to come along and rally the troops, more appropriately it is you each one who will become moved to act, in fact to be that which you know to be the highest reality.
These are the exciting times we are involved in and you, each one, must function as co-creators of our destiny. Look to yourselves, trust that you have within you all that is necessary to be great and glorious for in fact the Father Himself indwells you and while you may consider yourself unworthy or unable to rise to such a challenge, there most certainly is One within you who can rise to any challenge, who can overcome any obstacle, who can guide you through any darkness, who can lead you into any awareness.
Trust that you have this component firmly in place. Seek to access that component of yourself. Seek to access all of the outside influences who are at your disposal such as myself in this hour. I merely function as instructor, as messenger. I am graced with the opportunity to function in this capacity. There are many others who are equally graced to function in the capacity of instructors and facilitators but each of you contains within your being, the direct line, the straight course to wisdom, understanding, certainty and peace.
The spiritual pressure that we are experiencing will stimulate these powers within you to find that component of your divinity and to embrace it, to access it, in fact to join it and eventually to be it. This is your destiny and along the journey, this destination, we are privileged to function in the capacity of ambassadors of truth, portrayers of spirit reality, upholders of divine principles. It is not necessary to be of complete understanding of all there is to be understood in order to portray that of which we are certain. Therefore never hold back because you feel inadequate of your own understanding but rather be bold to share that which you do understand even if you cannot accomplish it.
It in not required that you be perfect to share the ideals of perfection, it is only required that you desire to be of service to another and then you are. Fear not the implications of being an ambassador of light, that is your role, it is your privilege. It is the grace bestowed upon you for having arrived at this place in your journey, at this level of your understanding. You have earned all that is being [given] to you and merely by being children of your Divine Parents you have the greatest of all awakenings awaiting you, your discovery of your divine nature.
Try not to concern yourselves with the details of how this new spiritual manifestation will manifest in your lives, rather come to this process with the eyes of little children who would learn something new, who would expand their awareness, who would not circumvent their experience through limitations of preconception. You are co-creating this new reality, in fact you are co-creating your reality always. Now attempt to do this in awareness of this new process.
In conjunction with the Father who resides within you, all things are possible. Attempt to not limit yourselves in your expression of divinity. Embrace the eternal aspect of yourselves and await your opportunities and recognize your signals. If you orient yourselves in this fashion you will begin to realize that all that you seek is being given to you to continue in this co-creative process and you will begin to function in awareness that you are not only responding to that which you are given, but you are bringing to you that which you seek as a response.
This is given to you by your Divine Parents. These are my expressions for this evening, I would however like to open the floor so to speak to any questions or comments that any individuals would like to offer as one of the parameters we would like to extend is that of a one sided conversation. Welcome. Would there be any contributions from the classroom this evening?
Dialogue
R~: Good evening Machiventa and thank you for stepping to the front of the classroom as instructor for us.[my pleasure] I am interested in the idea of the walking around merkaba, the idea of being connected both to the planet Urantia herself and through me to our co-creation work, the unity with the Father and I’m curious to know how or who else we work with, our seraphim, our adjuster, Urantia herself, how are we encircuited to co-create in a conscious way?
Machiventa: Very good, thank you for the formulation of your question. In fact your association with numerous energy fields is always in motion and is largely dependent upon your spiritual orientation and receptivity to the degree of expansion [that] can be accomplished, in fact many different energy circuits or energy fields can overlap any given individual and to the degree that you focus your individual energy and desires you may expand these overlapping fields to include vast circuits beyond your comprehension.
In fact one of the vastest circuits you each have at your disposal is contained within you. That one circuit transcends all circuits and is a direct link to the center of all that is and to your center as well. Many many circuits are formed through the volitional will of the participants. Even this conference call, I cite is a circuit of energy formed in this hour by you each one. It would not exist without you. You created it out of thin air and now you enjoy the rewards of your efforts, hearing these words and sharing your energy signatures with mine upon mingling our individual energies over this circuit we just chose to form.
Truly it is that simple and yet that profound. You may join any energy circuit you desire by sheer volition of your will. You may be in tune with various energy circuits and I assure you, you are entirely unaware of other energy circuits with which you do participate. It is not as much about these outside energy fields as it is about your awareness of them. Once you become aware then you can become a willing participant and this elevates your experience of the circuit which may have been present all along.
Seek not to go seeking and searching afar for where you might plug yourself into some foreign circuit, rather seek to increase your awareness of these circuits which even now extend to you and through you as a matter of principle. Does this perspective help your understanding?
R~: Yes in that…you’re saying to me that when I am at my workplace, when I am within my family, to extend my perception to the presence of additional circuitry that I am participating in?
Machiventa: Precisely, expand your awareness of that circuitry, it is there all the while. It is simply you who function of relative awareness and therefore with relative participation.
R~: When we speak of circuitry now should I be thinking of this line of energy as being the meanings, the values, the facts of the correcting time as manifesting themselves right in front of my face and being conscious of the incremental contribution that I am making to the correcting time, to the Magisterial mission?
Machiventa: You may view the correcting time as simply a macrocosm of the microcosm that is transpiring within you even in this hour. It is not as though these manifestations of energy and circuitry have not existed prior to your understanding of them, rather it is your awareness has shifted and your perception of these energy fields has been awakened. Likewise this correcting time is the awakening of the mortals of this realm that they have all the while been surrounded by vast numbers of energy circuits but have been unaware of their existence.
Similarly, you as an individual will go through the processes of awakening to discover that you had available to you energy circuits of which you were totally unaware but as a result of your new understanding, now become accessible to you by virtue of your spiritual growth. We have individual spiritual growth which is ongoing and an eternal journey, and we have as well group spiritual growth which takes place and that is the focus of the correcting time. To elevate the whole as well as to elevate the individual. So both are correct as a function. There is room for both without contradiction. It is a personal journey and as well it is a group undertaking and the one feeds off of the other one and together they move forward.
R~: So that’s what you mean by watching for signals, is that [for ex.] people come into my office every day constantly, I work with people in my family, so watching for signals that allow me to uplift, to encourage those around me according to their understanding and at the same time I contribute to the macroscopic correcting time according to my understanding.
Machiventa: Indeed, if one could look at it as the subtle difference between reacting to the signals or the potentials from the outside or looking for opportunity to act on those signals or potentials from the outside. If one could view themselves as looking for the opportunity to manifest and create higher ideals rather than function in a reactive position of bouncing off what another would contribute, those are the signals I refer to, more opportunities and gifts than anything, they are potentials that have not been actualized and await a creator to bring them into manifestation in this material plane.[thank you] Thank you for your questions and your interests.
M~: As a spirit…spiritual ministry, regardless of plurality of origin, of course all spirit influences are one in function, and it occurs to me as the Supreme was mentioned, the planetary Supreme Urantia, it occurs to me that the earlier question that was asked…we as we get to know and come closer and bond with Urantia, increasingly say by bringing her into the merkaba, allowing her to take this energy that has been transformed manipulated and with high intention and for purpose allowing her to take it say for healing where she desires to direct it, as we get better to know this growing planetary Supreme it seems to me that she will in all likely hood offer us or grant us or open up the gates to the planetary equivalent of the cosmic mind and therefore we can reach into this and certainly be led to whatever circuits are available on her planet for our brethren and us it would certainly strike me that we would be more likely to become aware of them right through the one who is the Supreme of this planet. Is that feasible?
Machiventa: You speak of a circuit that envelops you so completely as to almost be indistinguishable from yourselves and yet you remain in relative unawareness that you are enveloped. As mortals of the realm you are so nurtured and supported and loved by your Mother Spirit that you are as the fetus in the womb. You are so surrounded by your Mother’s energy so as to not know where you stop and she begins. Her fluid surrounds you as you were surrounded in the womb. You cannot at this point differentiate yourselves from the Mother.
It is hard for you to grasp how much She supports and nourishes you while you are in this mortal existence but I tell you plainly, She envelops you so completely that you do not know of her existence because you have had no contrast with which to make this observation. Therefore, yes, you are already a part of this circuit. This energy field surrounds you and is yours for the joining, for the taking, for the giving. Avail yourselves of this energy field and all other that you may become in awareness of, they are your nourishment for your soul. They allow your soul to be free.
A component of yourself is your soul, is not accustomed to being bound in material form and it is through avenues such as these energy circuits even such as this one we communicate across wherein ??? may [begin?] experience freedom of limitation. In this process of becoming spiritual beings that each one of you are undergoing you become freer and freer of the material restrictions until you you enjoy the freedom that your spirit yearns for and are able to freely access any number of energy circuits, freely locate your being wherever you may like and freely experience any aspect of reality that exists.
For now you are confined to your vehicles and only under certain circumstances do you allow that component of yourself, your true nature, to experience short bouts of freedom. You will in time discover each one of these circuits for yourselves and your relationship to these circuits and them you will explore these avenues and rejoice at having opened up new dimensions of your being. All in good time. Does this address your observation?
M~: It’s very comprehensive, yes most definitely and as we are empowered increasingly to subject the animal nature to the mastery of the spirit we allow all things to unfold don’t we.
Machiventa: Indeed, precisely.
R~: Machiventa, I’m confused. I imagine I perceive Urantia herself to be a different encircuitment than our Universe Mother and as I believe I become more aware of the work of the way that the Most Highs, as it says in the Urantia book, rule in the kingdom of men and that the activities of groups of people, of cultures, of races, of economic groups, of any demographic group you want to look at and how each of those are manifestations of the growing personality of Urantia herself, I find myself feeling less en-wombed and sort of asleep or lulled as I imagined my own children to be lulled while they were in my womb and I perceive Urantia herself as a receiver of my co-creative actions. Is this a valid way of looking at what I am feeling?
Machiventa: From your vantage point it is not altogether possible for you to discern where one energy circuit stops and another begins. It is much like wanting to define where the air in your living room stops and the air in your kitchen begins. They are constantly in flux with each other and therefore for you to attempt an observation of such a nature will prove inadequate as your vantage point shifts and as the energy circuits themselves shift and as your awareness of these energy circuits shift, truly you are on a moving conveyer trying to identify a moving target and while the human mind desires to place things in categories capable of understanding, when we talk about the spiritual realm we must come to new understandings if you will, of greater distances, spans and expand our limitations of understanding to accept that there are concepts such as the infinite which the human mind is not adequately prepared to embrace. This does not preclude your attempts however. Your desire of understanding is what gets you there. Your attempts to get your arms around that which is vast enables you to come closer in your appreciation of these aspects which are outside your current limitations of understanding. [thank you]
M~: So it’s a matter of relativity of concept frames then I take it, and the blending of the morontia material blending will allow these concept frames of reference or foundational framework to expand to greater depths, to better support the morontia and spiritual superstructure that will rest gently thereon.
Machiventa: These divine principles and divine characteristics are in place regardless of your understanding of them. You mentioned the words frames and reference points. I will point out to you that each of these positions of a frame or a point speaks to its very limitations. If you have a frame of reference then you only are aware of what is to the inside of this frame. If you have a point of reference it is only viewing all that is from that point. You must grow to appreciate that from any frame or from any point you are only seeing all that is out there given those restrictions.
It is your desire to go outside the frame and change your point of reference that enables you to increase your understanding to be more than it is at current. It is, once again, coming to a situation with an open mind, with the mind of a child who wants to learn, not the mind of not knowing but the mind of being teachable, the mind of eager to learn. That is what I mean by the mind of a child, not the mind of ignorance but the mind of teachable and if you approach your understanding of universe principles more with this attitude than with the attitude of fitting in these principles into your frame or experiencing them only from your vantage point, then you will not be successful in enlarging your perspective significantly enough to accommodate all that you would if you would come to the same opportunity of understanding with the open mind of a child.
M~: Yes, so frames of the universe are only relatively true. They are serviceable scaffolding which must eventually give way before the expansions of enlarging cosmic comprehension. Man must think in a mortal universe frame but that does not mean he cannot envision other and higher frames within which thought can take place.
Machiventa: Correct and your usage of the idea of scaffolding is oftentimes helpful as your human minds desire to see yourselves as taking steps and becoming more and more elevated in this process of stepping and having more and more achievements bringing you a higher and higher understanding. Therefore this concept of scaffolding is quite serviceable in your analogy of how you build new truths and new understanding directly on top of the old understanding and old truths. It is not that the truth down on the lower levels was not accurate at the time, but it is rather that you are adding to the truths. You are building on to the foundation of truth that you had a greater truth, a bigger truth and each time you do this it is as if you are adding a layer of scaffolding.
But recall your entire process is built the one upon the other. This does not service your cause to seek to destroy or dismantle previously held beliefs and ideals of yourself or another. Jesus when he instructed here in corporeal form was known for never dismantling another’s belief system but rather adding and building on top of that belief system. This is crucial because of the use of this scaffolding principle and likewise you must never feel having discovered a greater and more accurate representation of truth that you must somehow have been faulty or incorrect in having laid your initial stages of scaffolding. I hope this imagery is serviceable as well.
M~: Yes that is very, very fine imagery there. In all actuality I am just looking at it as a matter of conversion of potentialities into actualities. It’s constantly going isn’t it. Potentials become actualized and then more potentials increase on top of one another. That’s good, it will give me some thinking there.
I have a question completely unrelated to this and Machiventa I will ask you this for it has been with me a good 25 years and I have asked before but I haven’t an answer. [Quote Urantia Book p.1258] The cosmic reserve corps of universe conscious citizens on Urantia now numbers over 1000 mortals whose insight of cosmic citizenship far transcends the sphere of their terrestrial abode but I am forbidden to reveal the real nature of the function of these unique groups of living human beings. Could you comment and maybe shed some light on this mystery that has not been opened at least from me as of yet.
Machiventa: My friend I feel you know the answer to that question. [ok, I’m listening] Well first of all we must understand the context and timing. These papers were received in a given time frame in the development of Urantia and it is my hope and certainly the hope of all who were involved in the process of bringing forth these papers of which I was one, that these instructive lessons would never be fossilized and crystalized into a framework if you will, which would preclude your development of even greater understanding and ideals as developments in spiritual understanding and growth occurred.
As you are coming to learn, truth is dynamic, it is ever growing, it is ever expanding and you and each of you are involved in the expansion and creation of the understanding of this truth and while certain numbers were used to indicate that at a certain time in your historical record there were a certain number of individuals who had been recognized as having achieved certain levels of spiritual attainment back then, this is now and I plainly refer to you and everyone who comes in contact with these words as being counted among those on this world who have been registered as having gained a level of ????? enables you to become active participants in what is now transpiring between us. Those such as yourselves who have devoted your attentions to getting you to this place are now the ones who we are seeking to be involved with in this next phase of service that we are privileged to be endowed with and I perceive such was your understanding in your own self.
M~: Yes, very much so and this has been reconfirming. I felt all along by stating it the way it has, “I am forbidden to reveal the function of this unique group of living human beings” simply says hey we are not going to put walls and ceilings on it. These are the individuals that are the co-creators bringing the new miracles, the pioneers, the co-creators bringing new miracles to this increasingly advanced and enhanced cosmic meanings and divine values, its evolution.
Machiventa: Well said my friend, well said.
M~: Well Machiventa I could talk to you all night and I really enjoy you and this T/R is most exceptionally connected with you and I am honored to be here tonight. Thank you my friend.
Machiventa: I as well share your sentiment of being honored to be among all of you. I have been privileged enough to have the very best of our earth between my toes. I understand what it is you are navigating in your journeys each one and I honor your commitment to be here to find me, to find the Father in your process and even more I know that it is the desire of your hearts to reach out in service, in gratitude for all that you experience, the greatness of [this] spiritual venture. Trust that you will all receive that which your heart desires, [not] only your personal attainment of your spiritual ascension but as well you will be granted the opportunities to manifest glorious service. Function in awareness, be prepared to act, be prepared to create. It is given that you do this and face that what you are and be all that you can be. I would release this T/R…..
M~: May I ask one before you go, just a quick one please Machiventa? [yes] This is one from the 3rd epochal revelation, this most fascinating personality, not much was said about him but Nordan the Kennite, is he…I bet he wanted to come back here didn’t he? Your brilliant student Nordan the Kennite of Salem.
Machiventa: Indeed many spiritual entities that find their freedom in having transcended to the spiritual realm desire to pick up on their planet of origin and this opportunity is available to them however the stages of spiritual maturity are so appealing of their freedom that seldom does the soul desire to be confined as in this material state. It is truly a sacrifice of the soul to inhabit your material vehicle and while it is not without its material rewards, it is a restraining experience and difficult of enduring which is why those individuals who have chosen to personalize as a mortal of the realm made the supreme choice to forsake their spiritual freedom in favor of service.
M~: I wasn’t speaking of coming back as a mortal, I was just speaking of coming back even as a morontia being…Nordan the Kennite, you’ve touched on something that makes me want to think more about this one, unless you misunderstood my question.
Machiventa: The career of any individual becomes their personal journey and once they reach a level of spiritual awareness they have before them vast choices of expression of their spiritual nature and what we interpret on this material plane as limitations simply do not exist when in spiritual capacity therefore all options become available to any developing spiritual being, even yourselves. You may make many choices in the future in which you have no conception of at this stage and the same is true of all developing beings who have gone before you. It only is a matter of what you would refer to as time before all these wide choices are granted to each one.
M~: Nothing is etched in stone is it?
Machiventa: You are etching the stone my friend. Now if each of you could take with you the idea that you never leave my classroom, that this classroom can go with you and that in fact it is your privilege to take the opportunity to function in the role of instructor from time to time and you will find yourselves in the company of others and realize that it is you who is at the head of the class and you will realize it’s the same class….
M~: We never learn anything until we can teach it do we.
Closing
Machiventa: So say on and speak your truths and be prepared to stroll up to the head of the class where it is your turn and look for the opportunities that arise before you, they will come your way. Embrace them. Thank you for your contributions and your dedication to this process. I now would release this T/R and look forward to our next communication, be looking for that as well. Farewell.
