Hey everyone!!

Are we up for a chat tomorrow?

I'm interested if we could talk about Jesus and His travels all around the region before his "time came". (Paper 129 and 130).

Regards,

[happyrain]

Hi Oscar, the forum is moving slow for me again. I'm not sure if I can commit but I'll try to look at papers 129 and 130 tonight. I will keep you apprised!

[happyrain]

I started reading but haven't gotten around to it all. What time would you like to meet? And would you be willing to lead this conversation? I haven't much to offer other than a drop in and a willing ear~

[lethaniel]

Hey Eric,

In any case, we could just chat. Jesus it is one of my favourite subjects, but there are a tons of stuff we could talk about. I don't know about the time, same hour as usual ? Local time. 6 p.m. Colombian time would be the same in CST.

Regards,

[happyrain]

My Brother, where are you? I'm online in the place we met last. Was I preemptive in thinking you might be online soon?

I finished listening to paper 129 and 130- it is fantastic!!!

I am open to discuss whenever we find ourselves available.

So many good stories in there- but one that I wanted to come back and read and look at further is this one:

7. At Carthage—Discourse on Time and Space

130:7.3 (1439.1)At Carthage Jesus had a long and memorable talk with a Mithraic priest about immortality, about time and eternity. This Persian had been educated at Alexandria, and he really desired to learn from Jesus. Put into the words of today, in substance Jesus said in answer to his many questions:

130:7.4 (1439.2)Time is the stream of flowing temporal events perceived by creature consciousness. Time is a name given to the succession-arrangement whereby events are recognized and segregated. The universe of space is a time-related phenomenon as it is viewed from any interior position outside of the fixed abode of Paradise. The motion of time is only revealed in relation to something which does not move in space as a time phenomenon. In the universe of universes Paradise and its Deities transcend both time and space. On the inhabited worlds, human personality (indwelt and oriented by the Paradise Father’s spirit) is the only physically related reality which can transcend the material sequence of temporal events.

130:7.5 (1439.3)Animals do not sense time as does man, and even to man, because of his sectional and circumscribed view, time appears as a succession of events; but as man ascends, as he progresses inward, the enlarging view of this event procession is such that it is discerned more and more in its wholeness. That which formerly appeared as a succession of events then will be viewed as a whole and perfectly related cycle; in this way will circular simultaneity increasingly displace the onetime consciousness of the linear sequence of events.

130:7.6 (1439.4)There are seven different conceptions of space as it is conditioned by time. Space is measured by time, not time by space. The confusion of the scientist grows out of failure to recognize the reality of space. Space is not merely an intellectual concept of the variation in relatedness of universe objects. Space is not empty, and the only thing man knows which can even partially transcend space is mind. Mind can function independently of the concept of the space-relatedness of material objects. Space is relatively and comparatively finite to all beings of creature status. The nearer consciousness approaches the awareness of seven cosmic dimensions, the more does the concept of potential space approach ultimacy. But the space potential is truly ultimate only on the absolute level.

130:7.7 (1439.5)It must be apparent that universal reality has an expanding and always relative meaning on the ascending and perfecting levels of the cosmos. Ultimately, surviving mortals achieve identity in a seven-dimensional universe.

130:7.8 (1439.6)The time-space concept of a mind of material origin is destined to undergo successive enlargements as the conscious and conceiving personality ascends the levels of the universes. When man attains the mind intervening between the material and the spiritual planes of existence, his ideas of time-space will be enormously expanded both as to quality of perception and quantity of experience. The enlarging cosmic conceptions of an advancing spirit personality are due to augmentations of both depth of insight and scope of consciousness. And as personality passes on, upward and inward, to the transcendental levels of Deity-likeness, the time-space concept will increasingly approximate the timeless and spaceless concepts of the Absolutes. Relatively, and in accordance with transcendental attainment, these concepts of the absolute level are to be envisioned by the children of ultimate destiny.

Ah, Spirit was right and we are both online! I didn't see your post because, I was making a post too. 6 is fine unless you wish to meet sooner, I'm there now going over this passage.

[lethaniel]

Uh oh!

Power went out, it's pouring out there. Some lightnings and such!!!

Well, see you next week! Or maybe tomorrow?

It was nice!

[happyrain]

Hi Oscar, yes next week is fine by me. Maybe others will wish to join.

The one thing I wanted to mention when we were discussing rain, is that negative ions have a positive impact on the human body. If you leave your window cracked you still benefit. = )

Here's something you can read if it interest you:

happyrain! = )

Enjoy ~~~~

It's good to hear you guys were able to meet. It's been a bit hard for me the past couple of weeks, but I hope to join again soon. It is good to read all your thoughts on the discussions and parts of what was spoken. Are there any preferred papers for this week?

xxSandy

[happyrain]

Hi Sandy,

Do you have any preferred papers? What time Friday works for you?

[Sandy]

Hey Eric,
I'll follow your all's lead if at all possible.
My brother is coming over tomorrow to put the belt on the tractor, and depending on the weather, I should mow the grass. ( It has been a couple of weeks. ) This time of year, I mow high, so we need a machete to get anywhere right now. I have already been bitten three times by ticks, so I am trying to minimize the exposure.

So you guys pick something that appeals to you, and I will try to read or listen a little beforehand.
xxSandy

[happyrain]

Something tells me I could wait and we would have a last minute get together- but I feel even better is to say I do not plan to zoom today. Sandy, what about in the untold story of Jesus? Are there any pages you would like to read together... ?? With your suggestion, there is no rush to get it done and we can even hope to meet next Friday.

[Sandy]

Maybe we can talk about the Urmia lectures... Paper 134 next Friday.

What do you think? I haven't read them for a while, but I found them engaging and have been fascinated with Cymboyton.
xxSandy

[happyrain]

And so it is! Thanks for giving me something to read, Sister.

[happyrain]

Good morning Sandy. I'm starting to read paper 134. It's very interesting. Do you know by chance if the UB gives any other reference to global government on other worlds? I would be curious to know if examples are made clear to us. At the time this paper was written, I believe it is said somewhere in part 5 or 6 that the west does not concern itself with tariffs but we know that is untrue today.

I most definitely believe in the brotherhood of man, and for peace to be shared then sovereign supreme belongs to God alone.
I am still not evolved enough, and filled with uncertainty about world government and world religion.

I have been cautioned by monks that the warring ideals of today are civic nationalism vs a corrupted idea of globalism and it was encouraged to side with 'civic nationalism' when the two options became clear.

I'm not saying what is right or what is wrong, it is definitely hard for me to see what is right when it comes to the political landscape with respect that all beings may share in basic sovereignty. I also realize that some powers, whether national or global claim supremacy over others- and that some powers manipulate under the guise of morals to maintain some relevance and longstanding power over another.

I asked Perplexity to help me with the above question:

https://www.perplexity.ai/search/accord ... 2e04ODRA#1

[happyrain]

Hi friends

I am off on Friday- I plan to walk in the morning and exercise along the bayou... But I am free anytime from 12PM Central onward... Would there be a good time for us to meet?

We can chit chat Paper 134- I have ideas about it...

Self determination vs one world government... What would a one world government look like if we are united in God? Would we still allow respective nations to worship in the manner they choose?

And the time Jesus spent on Mount Hermon...

Here we have God acknowledging as a human, God. God as an omnipotent force, responsible for all of creation- all Duality- all seemingly good and evil, and all laws applicable not just to one universe but through out the multitudes of space and time... What forces entered his mind as he danced with the energy of the fallen ones- though we called it a test- we think of the temptations in a human garb... But if God is being tested by essentially fallen angels- whose knowledge of universal forces are far greater than that of a humans--- then what kind of energy did Jesus dance with on that Mountain? and WHAT are the Ancient of Days for even Jesus at 30 years human age to acknowledge such a PRIMAL and RAW force?


Hmm... Of course we can just chit chat too- of nothing in particular, just a coming together in love and harmony...

[lethaniel]

Hello my brother and family!

The Ancient Days are the Dudes my brother. Although there isn't that big of chapters in the UB, there's plenty information. It comes down to management. But since I'm up too for Friday, we can talk about it then.

Let me know the time (I can clear my schedule). Paper 134 is just great.


Regards,

[Sandy]

Hi Everyone,
I have a rare opportunity to get out of the house Friday morning, so I may not be able to meet as early as 12:00 noon. Even an hour later may help...
1:00 pm to sometime in the evening would be better for me. That will give me time to return and settle in with Mom...adjust to what she needs and see that she is happy and amused.
xxSandy

[Sandy]

The Ancient Days are the Dudes my brother.

that put a smile on my face.

[happyrain]

[lethaniel]

adjust to what she needs and see that she is happy and amused.

This one did put a smile on my face. Two things in this world can make smile just because, a happy smiling child, and a happy smiling and amused elderly.

I think I could do 1 pm CST, for half an hour (somethings appear to be unclearable! hahaha) at least to say hi. I hope afterwards for the rest of the afternoon, there might be some short meetings so I could join you.

Regards,

[Sandy]

Oh dear, I forgot that I am an hour ahead of you...I'm sorry. I was thinking Eastern Standard. Well... I'll try, but I will most likely be a little late. Why don't you guys go ahead and meet at 12:00 noon Central Time, and I'll pop in when I can.

Hope to see you guys tomorrow...
hugs,
Sandy

[happyrain]

12PM CST is 1PM CST your time and ends up being perfect as you said in your earlier post, just click the link and we'll see who and what happens
