What is Love? We all want to be loved but hardly do we desire to love others. So, why such a feeling cannot be so easily shared with all? What is love, then?

What has been enumerated in this long list is correct but to achieve OR RATHER TO IMPLEMENT ALL THE POINTS OF THE LIST AND MAKE THEM REAL WITHIN ONESELF THERE IS THE ONLY WAY POSSIBLE AND THAT IS THE TRUE AND LIVING WAY THRU THE DISCOVERY OF THE FATHER WITHIN ONESELF FOR THE FATHER INDWELLS EACH OF US THRU HIS SPIRIT, CALLEED THOUGHT ADJUSTER.And the next step for you is to establish a living relationship with the Father within, and still later be born of the spirit. And once you are born of the spirit you are all submerged in the ocean of the Father's LOVE. And you truly DO LIVE THE VIBRATIONS OF THE FATHER'S LOVE EVERY MOMENT. You also become even as the Father - loving all without any discrimination, loving even those who are hurting you due to their ignorance and selfishness.
Therefore I call on you to discover the Father within to have the love of all the creation family within you.
Peace be upon you.
With brotherly love,

Sri Sathya Sai Baba's Quotations on Dharma
1 | Prema, love, should be considered as the very breath of Life.
2 | The love that is manifest in all things equally, believe that same Prema [to be] Paramathma.
3 | The one Paramathma is in every one, in the form of Prema.
4 | More than all other forms of Prema, man's first effort should be to fix his Love on the Lord.
5 | Such Love directed towards God is Bhakthi; that is the fundamental test, the acquisition of Bhakthi.
6 | Those who seek the Bliss of the Atma should not run after the joys of sense objects.
7 | Sathya, Truth, must be treated as life-giving as breath itself.
8 | Just as a body that has no breath is useless and begins to rot and stink within a few minutes, similarly, life without Truth is useless and becomes the stinking abode of strife and grief.
9 | Believe that there is nothing greater than Truth, nothing more precious, nothing sweeter and nothing more lasting.
10 | Truth is the all-protecting God. There is no mightier Guardian than Truth.
11 | The Lord who is Sathyaswarupa grants His Darshan to those of truthful speech and loving heart.
12 | Have undiminished kindness towards all beings and also the spirit of self-sacrifice.
13 | You must also possess control of the senses, ... unruffled character and non-attachment.
14 | Be always on the alert against the four sins which the tongue is prone to commit:
1 | Speaking falsehood
2 | Speaking ill of others
3 | Back-biting
4 | Talking too much
| It is best to attempt to control these tendencies.
15 | Try to prevent the five sins that the body commits:
1 | Killing
2 | Adultery
3 | Theft
4 | Drinking intoxicants
5 | Eating of flesh
| It is a great help for the highest life if these also are kept as far away as possible.
16 | One must be always vigilant, without a moment's carelessness, against the eight sins that the mind perpetrates:
1 | Kamam or craving
2 | Krodham or anger
3 | Lobham or greed
4 | Moham or attachment
5 | Impatience
6 | Hatred
7 | Egoism
8 | Pride
| Man's primary duty is to keep all these things at a safe distance from himself.
17 | Man's mind speeds fast, pursuing wrong actions. Without letting it hurry like that remember the name of the Lord at that time or attempt to do some good deed or other. Those who do thus will certainly become fit for the Lord's Grace.
18 | First give up the evil tendency to feel envious at the prosperity of others and the desire to harm them. Be happy that others are happy. Sympathise with those who are in adversity and wish for their prosperity. That is the means of cultivating love for God.
19 | Patience is all the strength that man needs.
20 | Those anxious to live in joy must always be doing good.
21 | It is easy to conquer anger through love, attachment through reasoning, falsehood through truth, bad through good and greed through charity.
22 | No reply should be given to the words of the wicked. Be at a great distance from them; that is for your good. Break off all relations with such people.
23 | Seek the company of good men, even at the sacrifice of your honour and life. But be praying to God to bless you with the discrimination needed to distinguish between the good men and the bad. You must also endeavour, with the intellect given you.
24 | Those who conquer states and earn fame in the world are hailed as heroes, no doubt; but those who have conquered the senses are heroes who must be acclaimed as the conquerors of the Universal.
25 | Whatever acts a good or bad may do, the fruits thereof follow him and will never stop pursuing him.
26 | Greed yields only sorrow; contentment is best. There is no happiness greater than contentment.
27 | The mischief-mongering tendency should be plucked out by the roots and thrown off. If allowed to exist, it will undermine life itself.
28 | Bear with fortitude both loss and grief; try and search for plans to achieve joy and gain.
29 | When you are invaded by anger, practise silence or remember the name of the Lord. Do not remind yourself of things which will inflame the anger more. That will do incalculable harm.
30 | From this moment, avoid all bad habits. Do not delay or postpone. They do not contribute the slightest joy.
31 | Try as far as possible within your means to satisfy the needs of the poor, who are really Daridranarayana. Share with them whatever food you have and make them happy at least that moment.
32 | Whatever you feel should not be done to you by others, avoid doing such things to others.
33 | For faults and sins committed in ignorance, repent sincerely; try not to repeat the faults and sins again; pray to God to bless you with the strength and the courage needed to stick to the right path.
34 | Do not allow anything to come near you, which will destroy your eagerness and enthusiasm for God. Want of eagerness will cause the decay of the strength of man.
35 | Yield not to cowardice; do not give up Ananda.
36 | Do not get swelled up when people praise you; do not feel dejected when people blame you.
37 | If among your friends any one hates another and starts a quarrel, do not attempt to inflame them more and make them hate each other more; try, on the other hand, with love and sympathy to restore their former friendship.
38 | Instead of searching for others' faults, search for your own faults yourself; uproot them, throw them off. It is enough if you search and discover one fault of yours; that is better than discovering tens of hundreds of faults in others.
39 | Even if you cannot or will not do any punya or good deed, do not conceive or carry out any papa, or bad deed.
40 | Whatever people may say about the faults that you know are not in you, do not feel for it; as for the faults that are in you, try to correct them yourself, even before others point them out to you. Do not harbour anger or bitterness against persons who point out your faults; do not retort, pointing out the faults of those persons themselves, but show your gratitude to them. Trying to discover their faults is a greater mistake on your part. It is good for you to know your faults; it is no good your knowing others' faults.
41 | Whenever you get a little leisure, do not spend it in talking about all and sundry, but utilise it in meditating on God or in doing service to others.
42 | Lord is understood only by the Bhaktha; the Bhaktha is understood only by the Lord. Others cannot understand them. So, do not discuss matters relating to the Lord with those who have no Bhakthi. On account of such discussion, your devotion will diminish.
43 | If anyone speaks to you on any subject, having understood it wrongly, do not think of other wrong notions which will support that stand but grasp only the good and the sweet, in what he says. True meaning is to be appreciated as desirable, not wrong meaning or many meanings, which give no meaning at all and cause the hampering of Ananda.
44 | If you desire to cultivate one-pointedness, do not, when in a crowd or bazaar, scatter your vision to the four corners and on everything, but see only the road in front of you, just enough to avoid accidents to yourself. One pointedness will become firmer if one moves about without taking one's attention off the road, avoiding dangers, and not casting eyes on others' forms.
45 | Give up all doubts regarding the Guru and God. If your worldly desires do not get fulfilled, do not blame it on your devotion; there is no relationship between such desires and devotion to God. These worldly desires have to be given up some day or other; Bhakthi feelings have to be acquired some day or other. Be firmly convinced of this.
46 | If your Dhyanam or Japam does not progress properly or if the desires you have entertained do not come to fruition, do not get dispirited with God. It will dispirit you even more and you will lose the peace, however small or big, that you might have earned. During Dhyanam and Japam you should not be dispirited, desperate or discouraged. When such feelings come, take it that it is the fault of your Sadhana and endeavour to do them correctly.

I wanted to quote from one webpage about love:
***
"What Does Love Mean?
Submitted by Paula Thompson
A group of professional people posed this question to a group of
4 to 8 year-olds, "What does love mean?"
The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have
imagined. See what you think:
-
"When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and
paint her toenails anymore.
So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands
got arthritis too. That's love."
Rebecca- age 8
-
"When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different.
You just know that your name is safe in their mouth."
Billy - age 4 (I love this one)
-
"Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving
cologne and they go out and smell each other."
Karl - age 5
-
"Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your
French fries without making them give you any of theirs."
Chrissy - age 6
-
"Love is what makes you smile when you're tired."
Terri - age 4

"Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes
a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK."
Danny - age 7
-
"Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired
of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more.
My Mommy and Daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss"
Emily - age 8
-
"Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop
opening presents and listen."
Bobby - age 7 (Wow!)
-
"If you want to learn to love better, you should start with
a friend who you hate,"
Nikka - age 6
(we need a few million more Nikka's on this planet)
-
"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears
it everyday."
Noelle - age 7
-
"Love is like a little old woman and a little
old man who are
still friends even after they know each other so well."
Tommy - age 6
-
"Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken."
Elaine-age 5
-
"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and
sweaty and still says
he is handsomer than Robert Redford."
Chris - age 7
-
"Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left
him alone all day."
Mary Ann - age 4
-
"I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her
old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones."
Lauren - age 4
-
"When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little
stars come out of you." (what an image)
Karen - age 7
-
"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy on the toilet and she doesn't
think it's gross."
Mark - age 6
-
"You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But
if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget."
Jessica - age 8
-
And the final one -- Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked
about a contest he was asked to judge.
The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child.
The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was
an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife.
Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's
yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.
When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little
boy said,
"Nothing, I just helped him cry"

My dears Faith is very important but it is not as significant as being born of the spirit. Once I expreienced this spiritual birth I know an absolute difference in my approach to the Father and His creation prior to this birth and after it. Now I do not have any anger, hatred, fear, envy, agression, desire to dominate others, instead of thse dark animal traits I am full of love for ALL AND EVERY ONE WITHOUT ANY DISCRIMINATION AND PREFERENCE, DESIRE TO HELP OTHERS OUT OF THIS VERY SAME LOVE, COMPASSION AND MERCY, TRUTH AND BEAUTY, GOODNESS AND DESIRE TO SERVE. I have fused my will with that of the Father our of this love for Him and OUR CREATION. Now we are CO-CREATORS OF THE CREATION. That is a big big FREEDOM.
Peace be upon you.

Hello Brothers All
Brother Algimantas
Thanks for shareing your various personal & unique Life experiences . Each of ours are unique
as are our personalities . Your trials thru the fires, both Spiritual and literally have only made you stronger in character , Spirit , Trust & faith . As a Faith son , in service to the Father .
In many ways our past , molds us in growth of who we are today .
The POWER of PRAYER is Amazing . As in your town , with the seemingly Chaos , your brothers found PEACE thru the FATHER , to fear not . IN the UNITY of TRUST . Not Fear .
Fear is not the end , but the begining of a new trial to face . When fear of fate or the unknown
is overcome , By FAITH & TRUST , ... then anything we may face , we can fear not .
Its all then seen as a fresh new challenge , ... of a new day in doing the will of the Father .
It's Good for Learning and Growth .
Many things that happen , May or may not be Fate , as such , Or a Trial , Yet they do & will
show forth our true fruits of the spirit , as well as our real nature , .. to ourselves & others .
GOD does not play dice , nor are we puppets .
Choices are ours , the final outcomes are his .
Our Character , .. is our Fate .
WE Choose our Eternal Destiny . The UB says we are givin a 2nd Chance to Choose Him ,
and our Eternal Future . Yet I belive , that with his time lag mercey , his PLAN & WILL BE
that in time , ... all WILL BE Assimilated to him , in his UNCONDITIONAL LOVE , 5 in loveig SErvice TO HIM , .... The start of any journey is that first STEP . AMEN .
I am on the same page with my friend & Brother Bill , as far as temporal Realities , and Cosmic
Realities & TRUTH .
In regards to Say Baba , .. well I have read much about him & his teachings , online /comp sites.
for several days & nights . And although I found many of his teachings , inspireing and good ,
My Spirit of Truth leads me to validate that much of what he says & claims is not TRUTH .
He is not a Incarnation , nor has a divine hand , or is a Avonal son , or Magisterial son .
Yet if he inspires others to find the FATHER within , ... then good is being done in part of others finding the Inner PEACE of the Father fragment within . WE nee NO Priests , GURU"S SHAMAN's .
There IS ONLY ONE WAY > The TRUTH the way & the LIFE/ LIGHT ... of JESUS/ CHRIST MICHAEL.
It is only thru him that we can be in the LIGHT of TRUTH .
IN him , with him , & THRU HIM , ALL things are possible . Amen .
But as you said , you are about the Fathers service & will , thats all that matters .
I just Finished reading the GITA , '' Song of the Lord ''
I find it to be one of the most inspireing verses of TRUTH .
I like your Analogy of it regarding Lord Krishna being the TA .
The GITA says ;
'' A person is what his shraddha is ''
The Bible says ; '' AS a man thinketh in his heart , so he is ''
Sharaddaha / Faith . REFLECTS ... everything that we have made ourselves and POINTS to what we have.... BECOME >
Thus Shraddaha determines Destiny .
As the Buddha put it ; '' ALL that WE are is the result of what we have thought .
we are made of our thoughts ; we are molded by our thoughts ''
There are many meanings , to be found in the Gita Verses ,
The battlefield could be seen as our temporal body and our spirit within .
The Field could represent our battles of the flesh & spirit , now .
Also our past , present & future personal battles ... of faceing the ugly truths of ourselfs ,
to Do what we must do without FEAR . Of the unknown outcomes of our actions or non action .
To face our Fear , to TRUST in the will of the Father . For US .
To DEFEAT ... SLAY the Enemy , ... which is fear & doubt , of ourself & the Father .
To DEFEAT our animal nature of fear , Lusts , desires , envey , hate , predjudice , pain ,
To be content in any situation/s we may find ourselves in . To allways be of service , worship ,
prayer , trust , faith & love of the Father .
GITA
Chapter 13
Sri Krishna
'' The body is calleda field , Arjuna; he who knows it is called the knower of the field.
This is the knowledge of those who know .
I AM the knower of the field in everyone , Arjuna.
Knowledge of the field and its knower is true knowledge .'' TA ?
It is said that the Gita was set down by a inspired seer, traditionaly Vyasa .
Historians surmise that ; like the Iliad , the Mahabharata might well be based on actual events ,
culminateing in a war that took place somewhere between 1000 & 700 B.C.E.
~ close , that is , to the dawn of recorded Indian history .
This guess has recently been supported by exavations at the ancient city of Dvaraka ,
which , according to the Mahabharata , WAS destroyed and submerged in the sea after the departure of its divine ruler , Sri Krishna .
Only 5 hundred or so years before this , by generally accepted guess ,
Aryan tribes originally from the Caucasus had invaded the Indian subcontinent
and imposed their rule on the peoples they found !
I feel that Sri Krishna may have been a actual spiritual mortal king / ruler , Faith son
enlightened by the Father fragment withi n .
Maybe a 3rd secret eden garden ? ... or ATLANTIS ?
Peace & LOVE Brothers all .

You are absolutely right, and I have a T-shirt from last year's conference IC05 in Phliladelphia with the same quotation on the back.
By the way my brother in spirit Saulius, also from Lithuaania, who was also attending the conference, and I were driving SANTA FE jeep from Denver to Los Angeles via the Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, and back via San Francisco, the Nevada desert, and Salt Lake city. And I was preaching a living word of God and The Urantia Book message in the latter two cities, on the street. While in Los Angeles we both were wearing these same T-shirts and while walking on the Hollywood bouleward we heard some jeering remaks from two black guys who after having read "LOVE IS THE DESIRE TO DO GOOD TO OTHERS" were merely shocked how could that be at all.
Thus, to some even the word LOVE if a little bit disclosed and elevated to the higher than a physical level is A BLINDING LIGHT.
And with time, when people discover the Father within their own selves, LOVE SHALL BECOME SO NATURAL AS BREATHING, AND THEY SHALL NOT IMAGINE A MOMNET WITHOUT EXPERIENCING THIS SAME LOVE that is completely unknown to the absolute majority of the present time humanity.
Peace br upon you.
With brotherly love,

P.648 - §4 Love is the desire to do good to others
Paradise Pilgrim

Dear Bill, thank you for your cencepts and sincerity what mostly humans lack and are IN NEED. And that is why this is our path to discover Father within each of us, while any source, and The Urantia Book is the deepest and most consistent at the moment, towards the implementation of this goal. Man may accumulate plenty of information but he SHALL NOT DISCOVER PEACE AND LOVE WITHIN HAVING NOT ESTABLISHED HIS COMMUNICATION WITH HIS THOUGHT ADJUSTER. This is a strenuous but worth walking path for it IS THE ONLY RIGHT PATH WITHOUT CAUSING FRUSTRATION BUT RATHER EXHILIARATION AND BLISS AND EVER GROWING LOVE FOR EVERYBODY AND EVERYTHING AND PEACE.
While at high school I was planning to become a military man, an officer and was praparing myself to this type of a career. Since at that time Lithuania was within the-then Soviet Union and since all the school manuals were translated from Russian to Lithuanian and since I grew up in a small city where all the Russians spoke Lithuanian thus I had no practice to train my poor Russian anywhere I decided to improve my skills in Russian on my own. I did manage to get text-books in algebra, geometry, chemistry, physics, an dso on in Russian and along with Lithuanian school books I was reading the same lessons from the Russian ones. Adn for me it was important to know all the terms and formulations that I would need whiel in a military accademy. I began to keep my diary in Russian every day. And it was a tedious task for a teenager. And my marks in English were below ctriticism. At that time we had a five-point system, satisfactary being three. Thus I was balancing between two and three all the time since I did ignore English completely even calling it "A bird language," for did not understand it at all. I was certain I would never need it in the Soviet army. But imagine my surprise that during the last summer vacation before the final high school year I bagan on my own to STUDY ENGLISH BY MYSELF. And I was given a system to do it. And I was doing it EVERY DAY DURING THOSE THREE MONTHS OF THE LAST VACATION. And after this period of hard work I topped all the other best classmates in this subject. And I was led from an idea to get enrolled in a military accademy to enter the Vilnius university. I did it even though without realizing AT THAT TIME WHY I DID THAT. I was asking myself what I was doing among so many girl-students for at that time it was shameful for a guy to acknowledge the he studies in the faculty of phylology. It was not prestegious. And during all the first year I was pondering, even during the classes, why I was there and not in a military accademy, what I was doing at the university. And my stress was even increased during the second year when a special translators' group was formed, and I was included into the group without asking to be included. This was the first ever group in Lithuanian history to provide professional knowledge for future translators. But for it meant additional lectures in the syntax and grammar of the Lithunian language, stylistics of the Lithuanian language, the theory and history of translation, practical translation, editing and dsome others. There were plenty of additional subjects while we all well knew that this knowledge would not be applied in practice since Lithuania being behind the iron curtain of the Soviets had no independent internatinal contacts and all the graduates from the university would become high school teachers. And the teaching level of English was very poor since they all, teachers and students, lacked any impetus to study it better for all the same it was impossible to apply that knowledge.
While looking back I do know it NOW that starting with my personal studies of the Russian language, then English, then my work in Radio and TV and ending with the occupation of the TV HQ by Soviet troops in 1991 and my spiritual crisis was all well arranged sequence of developments for me to meet with The Urantia Book decades later and then thru the setting up the Urantia groups while getting ready for the Urantia group classes to begin translating The Urantia Book into Lithuanian and ultimately to complete this work during the ten year term and get it printed by Urantia Foundtion, also with pretty much of my personal prossure on them, to the current situation that I have been leading worship services at our temple of God the Father and His Son Jesus when I voice the pray that my mind is receiving from the Thought Adjuster and my soul. And this new experience have been continuing during the last for years. And in addition to this I began receiving the teachings of my Thought Adjuster in both Lithuanian and English. Thus some of them I have to translate either from Lithuanian to English or vice versa. And still in addition to it I travel around Lithuania, last summer in its western part, this year in the eastern part, sleeping in a tent in the forest an during the day standing with The Urantia Book on the streets of many different cities and preaching a LIVING WORD OF THE FATHER. Believe me, IT IS AN EXPERIENCE. And it is all the time growing in power.
On the Lithuanian website I share my experiences from these outings on the streets but to translate all this into English I simply have no time. But those who get acquainted with these experiernces begin to know people much better since I try to give some short descriptions of our converstains on the street so that others would see how much there is opposition to brighter light, bigger truth, how much they are ridden by fear and worries, how much they desire to get delivered from this inner slavery bondage of dogmas or rituals, and the like.
That is why, today, I look upon The Urantia Book as a solid step to discovering Father within and this bond is the crucial one but not THE URANTIA BOOK. Once man establishes this real and living bond he is delivered from all fears and is filled up with love. And what source CAN REPLACE THAT EXPERIENCE. Only SERVICE CAN MATCH IT since they are both from the same source - from the Father.
Some eight years ago I wrote a letter to Say Baba asking his spiritual rank according to The Urantia Book classification. And I still believe that he might be a Magisterial Son on a bestowal mission since his teching are almost the same as were those by Jesus. However, there can be only one bestowal missios on a planet, and that was the mission by Jesus two thousand years ago. But I think that under the circumstances caused by the rebellion the standard course of the developments might be corrected into some other ways. At least so far I have no ground to reject this type of my thinking. When I wrote to Say Baba I wasw asking him whether or not he is Immanuel, since he was claiming that he is the one who sent JESUS. And it was Immanuel who passed some instructions to our Creator Son on the part of the Father before the bestowal mission. And the rsponse I did receive from The Urantia Book, having paid attention that Immanuel is the representative of the Paradise Trinity to our local universe and thus he cannot come on a bestowal mission. Then I began considering him being a Magisterial Son, since they might also perform a bestowal mission in the flesh.
However, today, I stop paying attention to who and what hierarchy might represent but rather devote my attention to my relationship with the Father fro we are ALL BROTHERS AND SISTERS no matter on what step of the creation we stand we have our free will TO GROW BY SHARING OUR LOVE AND SERVICE. This for me the MOST IMPORTANT THING.
Peace be upon you.
With brotherly love,

Let me say it is a pleasure to talk with both of you. I think we are closely akin in our thinking.
I read nearly every work of value in the study of religion. What the Gita prepared me for was the concept of the Supreme Being. As I recall it is stated to think of God as a giant man. My mind made the microcosm macrocosm analogy immediately. The UB alludes to an organic nature of the Master Universe which seems to be implied in the Gita statements. I also enjoyed Gurdjieff who discussed the growth of a soul, I believe he called it the keljian body, (I lost my library a few years ago so I cannot refer to the sources for exact quotes) long before I read about it in the UB.
As to the language question, I appreciate the information. I really dread having to learn the languages of Nebadon and Orvonton, as I failed French in high school. As it turns out I should have studied Spanish as that will soon be the language of the USA.
Algimantis,
I agree with your interpretation of the result of Adjuster contact. The UB is 1934, the Adjuster is now+! I envy your accomplishments. You make more sense in your interpretations than 99% of the self proclaimed Urantia Paper experts on line. coop and I are friends because we see reality in a similar way. He is much more patient than I am in dealing with fools. I constantly forget that there is really a difference in comprehensive ability in humans and get mad at people who have no cosmic view. Again, let me say, I am pleased that we have met.
I would say that Sathya Sai Baba is an glib enlightened Faith son of God with charisma. A man doing what he believes is his part in God's plan. This makes him good. He was a step in your evolution, was he not?
Bill,
Faith son

My dears, the Lithuanian language falls into a sepparate language family within the Indo-European languages, and this language group makes up the BALTAI language grouops that stands by itself among the other language groups within the Indo-European language family. Say, if you take as a separate language group the Slavic languages, they are subdivided into Southern such as Bulgarian, Slovenian, Serbian, Croatian, Weastern: Ckeck, Slovak, Polish and Eastern: Russsian, Byelorussian, Ukrainian; Iranian is subdivided into Old Persian, Persian, Avestan, Pashto; Indic into Sanscrit and from it into Bengali, Punjab, Hindi, Urdu, Maraty, Gujarati, Romany. And the Baltic language group is divided into Old Prussian, Kurshyai, Selyai, Jotvingyai, Lithuanian, Latvian. And the Lithuanian language has even separate sentences that are absolutely identical in Sanscrit and Lithuanian in spreling and meaning. That is why Lithuanian is a must language to a linguist in comparative linguistics. Without knowing it one cannot trace the development of the language per se as a living organism that is always in motion.
I studied not only Sai Baba's teachings, but also Bhagavatgita, Koran, the life and teachings of Mohammed not all of which have been included in Koran, the Bible, the Book of Mormon, plenty of esoteric literature similar, such as The Book of Jesus, A Sleeping Prophit by edgar Casy and the like. And no book, even all of them put together, cannot match The Urantia Book. It stands BY ITSELF EMBRACING ALL OF THEM INTO A HUG AND STILL HAVING PLENTY OF EMTY ROOM FOR HIGHER SOURCES THAT HUMANITY ARE UNABLE TO GENERATE UNTIL A MORE PROFOUND REVELATION IS PASSED TO US SOEM TIME IN THE FUTURE.
This book, though, is only a STEP, OR A MEANS, TO SETING UP A PERSONAL AND LIVING RELATIONSHIP WITH ONE'S THOUGHT ADJUSTER WITHIN. Once I began to experience this relationship and receive His teachings my understanding of the Father's operation within a human mind has expanded so much that in some ways, it even supplements that what is presented in The Urantia Book what concerns man's bond with the Thought Adjuster. By the way, you may read some of the teachings I have received from the Father if you look at "The Teaching of the Father's Spirit."
And this new experience with the Thought Adjuster, in reality with the Father, as He is operating in the human mmind thru this fragment, gives me absolutely different approach to my mission on Urantia as has been pointed poit to me by HIM - to preach a living word of the Father and the Gospel of Jesus even the way I, unconsioulsly, expanded up to the brotherhood of all the creation not only of man. This also an expansion of The Urantia Book message. But I do understand that The Urantia Book gives only the global principles while once one establishes a personal communion with one's TA, one is given PERSONAL ASIGNMENTS. And it is my own free will is the master to follow the teaching and leading of the Thought Adjuster or reject it. I do accept His teachings and follow them. And I claim there is no higher pleasure and bliss in human's life than to follow these leadings an dteachings and meet the challenges that He is training each of us for.
Peace be upon you.
With brotherly love,
