This is Jerry Lane receiving Mother Spirit’s transmission on January 28, 2021. Let me say right off the bat, I definitely appreciate Free Conference Call.com. They’ve been a wonderful organization for over ten or twelve years now, hosting our get-togethers and recording them so we can enjoy listening to them as long as we want.



My sincere and boundless thanks to the gracious lady who transcribes their audio records for me; and too, to all the folks who attend these wonderful experiences. That being said: Welcome, Mother Spirit and Michael! We want to send you our own best wishes and appreciation for your company this Happy New Year in January.



Thinking about that particular designation—"happy”—I’m wondering if it applies to the future so much, since we can’t tell yet, and can only await the fullness of time to see if it is going to be a happy new year. It might be a very sad one for some of us who are getting rather “long in the tooth” now and losing friends, and relatives, and other dear souls with whom we’ve shared our lives..



But maybe “happy’” can always be unequivocally designated, simply because: Here we are! We’re still here! We’ve survived another year. And that is happy indeed!--this thing called life. So we extend to you, Mother Spirit, our own wonderful feelings of Happy New Year, and thank you for your part in helping us get to here. We definitely count upon your company in this year to come. Amen.



Nebadonia: Good evening! This is your Mother Spirit!--happy to be your Mother Spirit. I am sure all you mothers and fathers can share this appreciation with me. You have these other living beings; these other mysterious creatures that came right out of you mothers, and by way of you fathers. They have their own independent lives, and their own unique take on things--so surprising and so wonderful.



(The complexity of being human)



So tonight, let’s celebrate this Happy New Year and the fact that we are all still capable of getting together like this. I would like to review, just for pure appreciation, something that most of you already know, who have attended all of my own and Michael’s lessons. You are aware of all the “pieces” that constitute you, but I thought tonight we could do a little review--in terms of pure appreciation for these complex beings that you humans are.



Those of you who are familiar with the Urantia Book know it delineates hundreds of orders of personal beings, starting with God and the Trinity, then the seven Master Spirits of Paradise, on out into time and space and the heads of the Super Universes, right on down to the Local Universes headed by Creator Sons and Daughters like Michael and myself. Then there are all the angels, and archangels, and the Melchizadecks, and on and on in a kind of hierarchy of spiritual beings according to their abilities of perception and understanding, and being able to relate with everything and everyone around them.



(Personality Survival)



For, as your Urantia Book says in its wonderful chapter on Personality Survival, the main functions and essence of life are these living relationships with all that you are, and all those you are surrounded by. This is why life itself is not defined anywhere in the Urantia Book so much as a “thing” that can be grasped cognitively , as it is a “condition.” It’s a condition of something happening--something changing--something that is--for your order of being--a promise of eternal life.



Yet what is this condition of something happening within you, and to you, and around you? It’s not only this whole universe, but your ability to continue on in it that points right at the essence of what is continuing in all this. Because in one way there is no time. Your Happy New Year only points at a circular aspect of something that keeps repeating itself because you are on a planet circling a sun, that gives you your repeating seasons.



But as you touched on in your introduction, you also have a kind of personal linear existence right from your conception, then your birth and starting to experience. So it is happy that you are still here and still experiencing.



Yet, in the most profound way, there is no circular nor linear time. There is just “something happening.” We call it the “Eternal Now”--if you will. “Time”—the past and the future, is something personally created and socially shared, so you are collectively capable of realizing a history your science, and archeology, and astronomy leads back to in time. Also you can definitely extend into the future what is going to happen for certain on a cosmological scale, and even minutely by way of Natural Law.



(The Eternal Now)



But also, in this eternal now, in this “something happening”, along with this continuity of the physical world of cause and effect--right on down to the sub-sub-atomic level, and on out into the celestial realms--there is also something new, something that never happened before--in each moment, and now too in this present happening.



We can say that in God, the personal originator of everything, God is so great in his moment-by-moment creativity, he doesn’t have to repeat himself. He himself established two great functions of reality. One is a continuing connection, the continuity of an absolute cause-and-effect that rules the impersonal physical universe. There is also something that is forever new by way of personal creativity—as your Urantia Book says, “not bound by the fetters of antecedent causality.” For your order of being, for you human beings, my children, the greatest creative continuity is you yourselves with your unique personalities right from God. This is the essence of who you are, as a spiritual experiencing being.



You also have a soul, a wonderful possession, an accumulation of all your experiences being saved for you by a presence of God as part of you. He is helping you keep this record of all that you have done, so far and away superior and vast compared to your memories that come and go with your state of mind.



Yet you yourself are the continuity. Throughout the whole dynamic, ever-changing physical universe, personal beings are the unchanging continuity, right from their origin. And true enough, this origin does happen within your order of being. You do have a beginning. You have a physical, biological conception with which your personality is suddenly, and by God, associated. You are conceived! And all of a sudden your unique personality is given a means by which to fulfill its purpose. And that purpose, right from God, is experience.



(The purpose for, and within, life)



This is, if you will, the reason for It All--starting with God and his experiencing all of reality. Then there’s his notion of sharing experience with other personal beings whom he gives a measure of freedom, even from himself. It’s his ability of divesting of himself by creating personalities and then giving them a little nudge--of life!--to get going, with a measure of creative free-will. So the whole universe is filled with personal beings to a very large degree on their own. Because each is endowed with creative spirit.



Every personal being has the ability to, in this way, mimic God and be creative in whatever universe situation they find themselves. Something is coming out of them—sometimes surprising them more than anyone else--something new, something fresh, something that has never happened before. This is the very essence of creativity that, in spite of all its antecedents, there is something new.



And, of course, this applies to Reality Itself. All of God’s creation is, in a very fundamental way, not repeating itself. Each moment in time is unique, as you too are unique in it. Your creations are somewhat unique. I say all this, my dears, for your appreciation of not only knowing who, but what you are. By the very nature of your being, you have a personality whose function is again--like God’s--one of unity and an ability to unify all these different parts of you. There’s your creative spirit, these living bodies of yours and the dimensions of mind you have of knowledge and understanding, courage, and counsel--associating with each other, worship and wisdom. Think of all these aspects of mind that you are endowed with--God’s pure gifts to you.



And so, my dears, you are composite and very complex beings, more so than, shall we say, a “Standard Seraphim,”--just a regular old angel who doesn’t have your physical aspect of being associated with a destiny of living “stuff.” You are literally material--all these elements: the calcium in your bones, the nitrogen in the protein in your cells—in this “condition” of “being alive”--being a partner in the living relationship of you with everything else with which you relate .



This is what life is. It’s the relationship to you to your own body, and then to the world surrounding you, filled with all these other personal beings. You’ve a future where you go out and begin to experience all the other orders of personal beings. And so we thank our Father. We extend to him, and the Trinity, our appreciation for all these dimensions of being alive. We tease you with the notion that these dimensions of your awareness, in your relationships, will continue to grow with you, and for you, forever.



No matter how many billions of years you will continue to be, when you will have outlived this very sun you see rising in the morning--this little star you are so close to. Even when it has come and gone, you will still be carrying on--with such an enormous soul of experience, and an ever growing ability to be one with that soul.



(Visiting your soul)



Now you have to take time out of your busy lives to sit down and let go this whole world surrounding you, and too this body of yours sitting in a chair. You let all that go just to feel for a few brief moments the tiniest aspect of your soul—of who and what you once were--that God’s presence is keeping for you. This is what it’s like to be so briefly in some previous aspect of your life. Try it. But then you know your soul, and God, are real; and this relationship will keep growing forever as you keep growing forever.



Your wonderful Urantia Book gives you an outline of working your way up from the Local Universe, clear up to--sometime in the far distant future--even leaving this whole realm of time and space, this whole physical universe your telescopes bring to you.



You’ll be leaving all of this behind to go into a Central Universe to spend some time on each of a billion unique worlds. This is where you are headed, my dears--all the way to Paradise, however many hundreds of billions of years from now--to achieve the sixth-stage spirit you will be.



We so love to tease you with all of this because, as you say, the fact that you still are is such a happy thing. When you die and are reborn on the Mansion Worlds, that moment too will be a happy one forever.



(A life of appreciation)



Now, let me leave you my own lesson here; and have a conversation with you. These are some of our greatest delights during these times—Michaels’ and mine. It’s being able to talk with you, and tease you a bit. So: enough talking only about appreciation, just let it grow. Let appreciation be a continuous thing in your life. Let it be one of the main rewards of your meditations, from time to time, then, hopefully, day to day, morning to morning. Feel the appreciation of: “Thank you, Father. Here I still am!”--happy indeed. Now if you have any questions or comments this evening, let’s do those.



Student #1: Hello—Hi. You always talk about the Urantia Book when I am listening, and I have a question about why. Why are there so many personalities and names given to us, like about the history of our world, like Grandfonda or the one I am interested in--the one who was controlling the circuits when the quarantine happened? I think his name was Anovancha (?). The Urantia Book says he wanted to send greetings to the humans.



(The reason for the Urantia Book)



Nebadonia: Yes, my dear--the Urantia Book. The reason for it, you might say, is essentially the theme I was speaking on tonight. It’s about appreciation. It’s for your understanding of your place in Creation. So in this way the book had to start at the very center, and come out from there to our Local Universe, and then to the history of your world. This included the Lucifer Rebellion, and why it was allowed to go on until all the personal beings involved had made the choice of whether to join the rebellion, or to stand against it. At that time higher spiritual authorities simply stepped in and squashed it.



This shows that although higher spiritual beings have the power, they also recognize and treasure your own free will. Higher spiritual beings refused to step in and immediately squash even like a major rebellion like Lucifer’s, in order to allow everyone—angel and human-- to make their choices.



The Lucifer Rebellion was a Local System revolt recruiting 37 worlds—including yours-- out of over six hundred. As the Urantia Book informs you, our Local Universe--of some ten thousand Systems--has about three million, eight hundred thousand evolutionary worlds like your own, to date. Also, for your sense of proportion, the Lucifer one was the worst Local System rebellion, along with two others, in the four hundred billion years of our Local Universe.



(Rebellion against divine order)



Think how rare rebellion against divine order has been!—especially of a high System Head, Lucifer in this case. There’s been less than a hundred evolutionary worlds that joined in a rebellion, out of millions. Does this give you some understanding and appreciation for the magnitude of why your world is as it is? Here it is some hundreds of thousands of years since the Lucifer Rebellion and your world is still involved in some horrendous warfare, crime, and enormous, ungodly suffering.



Student #1: So you give us the names of the heroes. You gave us the name of Van the Steadfast. You gave us the name of the valiant hero on Mansion World #1 who now runs the prison world because he saved all the people by helping them think about it correctly. I am always so curious about why you would personify them like this, so we really have a good history of the invincible? Nobody on the planet knows them but us and you guys. How do we tell this story to the people who are still in such darkness about the Rebellion? Right now it seems like it is finished rolling out, with the recent adjudication. Things are getting organized.



Nebadonia: Very much so. Yet here we are in the middle of a mystery. God’s will always will pertain with his absolute love and connection, and his appreciation for his own children. It is like Michael once telling you what it was like for him as a human being to be bouncing a little child on his knee. Here was a Creator Son of God marveling at this little human child. So in one sense God’s power will always prevail, yet within him is such appreciation for human reality. I’m trying to express to you the enormity of individual free will and how it is respected.



(A spiritual example for everyone—encourage freedom)



You might say we go along with things, even when we have the power to stop them. This is a way of giving you, as a human being, an example for your relationships with all others, especially with your own children. It’s how to give each other freedom. Strive as much as you can in all your politics and social interactions to give each other as much individual freedom as possible.



Student #1: But not hurt others.



Nebadonia: Hurting others is the very relinquishing of their freedom, especially some physical disability they will have to live with for the rest of their life. Or it could a parent being so brutal with their children, the children are stunted emotionally because they have never known what loving, tender care is.



The very fact that we allow these things to happen has always been one of the greatest mysteries. If there is a spiritual world and they have this enormous power, why do they let these things happen?



Student #1: Yes, it is a common question.



(The mystery—and potential—of free will)



Nebadonia: Right! Which is, again, the mystery of free will. As I tried to express tonight, one of God’s most profound ideas was to create subordinate beings and give them a true free will, even in the case of a very cruel, malicious criminal person with the ability to go against God’s will and what he would want for everyone. Otherwise, if you could not have any departing from his essential goodness, you would have a completely different kind of universe.



Student #1: Like robots.



Nebadonia: That is why the Urantia Book gives you a chapter of Life on a Neighboring Planet where everyone is somewhat like a saint and all the parents raise their children so well it leads to the ideal kind of society they can have. They are far from perfect, still, but so much more spiritually advanced than your own world.



Student #2: Mother Spirit, I always love your presence, and the balance you bring. I love it when you hold us in your arms, and it always amazes me about our different personalities that God gives us. And I love that we have free will.



Student #1: It helps make heroes doesn’t it?--to learn to love that complete free will.



Student #2: Michael spoke at our class Tuesday night, and he said, ”‘God will have his way with his children.” That was reaffirming to know. And thank you, Jerry.



(Ongoing, inexorable social evolution)



Nebadonia: Certainly. There is a kind of ongoing social evolution that is inexorable. Then too, personally, no matter what kind of human life someone lives, they will have the supreme choice of continuing or not. Even those you would call terribly evil because of the real pain and suffering they created, will, when they are re-constituted and can feel and experience all the pain they have caused, it is an act of mercy to allow them to cease to exist.



That ultimate choice of whether to continue or not—eternally--is one of the possibilities of your free will. It puts a seal on what it is really and truly a real thing.



Student #2: Yes. We will be known by the fruits or our labor—the fruits of our spirit, rather.



Nebadonia: Very much so, for this is what fills your soul--your eternal possession of what you have known, and what you have done, and even--to some degree--what you failed to do. Because this is how your own wisdom and soul serve to keep you humble, and in touch with a larger reality of possibility.



Thank you, my dears. I am so delighted, my daughter, you can actually feel my arms from time to time.



Student #2: Yes, yes indeed.



Student #1: Yes indeed. Thank you so much.



Nebadonia: This is Michael’s and my greatest joy, just like you with your children. It’s the ability to share our lives, and why I love these conversations back and forth. I love the ones we do between us in your own meditations. These conversation, these exchanges back and forth, show us we are separate, unique beings; but also, at one and the same time then, we have the ability to share our lives.



This sharing is only possible because we are different, yet have the ability to enjoy that very difference—for company.



(Your children)



Well, my dears, it is good to know you parents are also faced--sometime, or even day-to-day--with the mystery of, “!Oh!-- my goodness! My son or—daughter--came right out of me!--Or by way of me”—for you fathers. “Here they are!--and yet they aren’t like me at all.” It’s the great mystery of children, now and then. They have their own need to stand up against you, from time to time, and declare their independence. Their egos are forming with their self-awareness, along with desires that are so conflicting because of immaturity. They’re just a young personal being reaching out and exploring their world to discover what is possible and what is not. What powers do they have, and what limitations do they encounter.? For them too: each child has a soul to fill.



So we thank our Father for the wonderful, eternal, and infinite complexity of his reality. And that we too--like him,--have a personality with the ability to unify it all, and make it one for us. We too can experience this oneness of everything, with a deep intuition that everything is all tied together. All of life is supporting all of life, and sharing our life with others is how we most profoundly grow, and most profoundly add to our soul. “Thank you, Father, for all these others I have known, and shared my life with.”



(Your greatest treasure)



We thank you so much for these others, and for our ability to share. They are truly our treasure--these others we have known.





My dears, thank you all for being here. It is truly a Happy New Year’s celebration that we all still are. Something is continuing here. Something is tying us all together. It is no less than each one of you.



And so, good night. Michael sends you his love, and I wish you a really wonderful and happy new year, and a good evening. Good-bye.
