    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    The analogy I use is that God is the light on the other side of the cosmic prism: in the spectrum of his light we live, move and have our being.

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    The quantum connection between God and man is fairly obvious to me, undoubtedly because of the many books like The Quantum Enigma and The Self-Aware Universe I’ve read. When I read, “The living God is the divine light whose interruptions constitute the creation shadows of all space,” I...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    In another thread I mentioned how disparate thoughts can suddenly meld together in such a way as to overwhelm the senses. The two I had particularly in mind were “The living God is the divine light whose interruptions constitute the creation shadows of all space” (1124.4) 102:6.2 and...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    Explore the territories for yourself instead of rummaging through the dumping grounds of others. At least it's honest "thievery." One of the audio versions of the book has this prelude: The following is a review of the book found, of all places, in Oui magazine. Do a little investigating, and...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    Sadly, Stuu is representative of the vast majority of people, people who are afraid to "chart the unknown possibilities of existence." It's safer behind the walls of convention where everyone thinks alike; i.e., at a very superficial level.

    My Dog, My Guru

    My dog loves people. She will stop in the middle of intense play to greet someone; no one is a stranger. I’ve met a half dozen people by routinely taking her on the same walk I’ve taken for years. Incredibly gentle, she will run up to children as fast as she can and drop on her side for a...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    Mormons teach personal growth and progression, spirit and element are inseparably connected, there are more refined and subtle elements and many inhabited worlds. Kabbalah teaches the self-differentiation of the Ein Sof (the ONE). The UB teaches about a planet a hundred times larger than Earth...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    All I can do is point. It is up to you to see what the finger is pointing to -- and it points to a no-thing. ;) In the words of Alan Watts: "Behold! Not even an empty universe." Not even the concept thereof.

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    Sorry, JW, but this is all straw man argumentation. Please pay attention: It has been said many times before and I'll say it again: The God conceived is not God.

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    This post (and Aimiel's posts) is an example of what was meant when I said, "For many people, atheists and theists, human ideas and teachings about God are just about the only reality God has. They can't get past the idea of God in order to grasp the ideal." The problem is twofold. First, facts...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    From Science and the Akashic Field by Ervin Laszlo: Philosophy you somewhat grasp, and divinity you comprehend in worship, social service, and personal spiritual experience, but the pursuit of beauty — cosmology — you all too often limit to the study of man’s crude artistic endeavors. Beauty...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    Although I refer to various source and quote from them, I do not defer to them. I let truth speak for itself. I do not argue the validity the teaching based on the authority of its source.

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    What Caino said in post #579. Your question presumes that truth is ascertained by dismembering, segregating, isolating and analyzing life until there is no life.

    IMV, neither. It is something lived.

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    I do not know why, but I have more empathy for the likes of Aimiel and the 9-11 terrorists than materialists -- atheists. It seems to be instinctive. Philosophy you somewhat grasp, and divinity you comprehend in worship, social service, and personal spiritual experience, but the pursuit of...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    Heavens! I'm beginning to think Aimiel is for real! Anyway, how we understand is just as important as what we understand. We can understand spiritual beings as localized fields of influence -- a hierarchy of fields within fields, as it were. Doing so characterizes the nature of reality as...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    You do know, don't you, that the word "fear" means "awe"? You didn't answer my question, Aimiel. How is the excerpt false or misleading? Let's look at what you have said: You fear love You hate justice You hate mercy You do not trust in the Spirit of Truth You do not believe the Bible where...

    The Late Great Urantia Revelation

    FL, I find it helpful to think of spiritual influences described in the UB as interpenetrating fields rather than beings in the anthropomorphic sense.
