Science & The Urantia Book There is a lot going on today that takes much of its source from The Urantia Book . Below you will links to various books, as well as links to entire books. Enjoy the journey. The Science Content of The Urantia Book.pdf From the introductory paragraph: The expectations of individual readers in respect to the scientific information contained in The URANTIA Book are manifold. Important factors for particular readers may be the time period in which the book has been studied, the depth of study, and the degree of interest and knowledge of the reader in matters of science. Some new readers may believe that the revelatory validity of the book is verified by the accuracy of its scientific content. Others may have the expectation that if only leading scientists embraced the book, exciting scientific discoveries would eventuate. Some readers conclude that because the book claims to be revelatory, all of its statements aspire to the status of absolute truth. Others consider that a single erroneous statement would invalidate its revelatory claims. The Science Content of the UB Table of Contents Check out the subject listed in the table of contents in this pdf. Cosmometry: Exploring the HoloFractal Nature of the Cosmos by Marshall Lefferts This is one of the most beautiful books to be published on this subject. And it seems to cover every topic related to cosmometry. "Throughout nature we can see patterns, structures, processes and systems that reflect an underlying order of energy dynamics that literally in-forms the observable universe across all scales. Cosmometry is the study of this underlying order, wherein cosmic geometry, unified physics and the harmonic system of music are seen as three lenses through which to view one phenomenon — universal dynamics of energy and matter manifesting in physical form and flow. Synthesizing foundational theories of Buckminster Fuller, David Bohm, Nassim Haramein, Foster Gamble, Richard Merrick and others, Cosmometry – Exploring the HoloFractal Nature of the Cosmos presents a new look at age-old questions about the universe we live in, and the origin of consciousness with which we are aware of it. With over 400 color images and illustrations, and bridging personal observation, scientific research, spiritual insight and experiential knowing, Cosmometry offers a guided exploration into new understandings about the fractal-hologramic nature of the unified field from which everything emerges in a seamless integrity of wholeness."

" SomaEnergetics Website The Light Eaters: How the Unseen World of Plant Intelligence Offers a New Understanding of Life on Earth This is one delightful book. Beautifully written and researched in the telling of an exciting story about our worldwide friends and neighbors, plants. Below is from Amazon : It takes tremendous biological creativity to be a plant. To survive and thrive while rooted in a single spot, plants have adapted ingenious methods of survival. In recent years, scientists have learned about their ability to communicate, recognize their kin and behave socially, hear sounds, morph their bodies to blend into their surroundings, store useful memories that inform their life cycle, and trick animals into behaving to their benefit, to name just a few remarkable talents. The Light Eaters is a deep immersion into the drama of green life and the complexity of this wild and awe-inspiring world that challenges our very understanding of agency, consciousness, and intelligence. In looking closely, we see that plants, rather than imitate human intelligence, have perhaps formed a parallel system. What is intelligent life if not a vine that grows leaves to blend into the shrub on which it climbs, a flower that shapes its bloom to fit exactly the beak of its pollinator, a pea seedling that can hear water flowing and make its way toward it? Zoë Schlanger takes us across the globe, digging into her own memories and into the soil with the scientists who have spent their waking days studying these amazing entities up close. What can we learn about life on Earth from the living things that thrive, adapt, consume, and accommodate simultaneously? More important, what do we owe these life forms once we come to understand their rich and varied abilities? Examining the latest epiphanies in botanical research, Schlanger spotlights the intellectual struggles among the researchers conceiving a wholly new view of their subject, offering a glimpse of a field in turmoil as plant scientists debate the tenets of ongoing discoveries and how they influence our understanding of what a plant is. We need plants to survive. But what do they need us for—if at all? An eye-opening and informative look at the ecosystem we live in, this book challenges us to rethink the role of plants—and our own place—in the natural world.

- Science Today | The Urantia Book Stu
Science Today Finding Connections at Every Turn In the last century, we have seen the discovery and exploration of Quantum Physics and, more recently, concepts of Quantum Consciousness. Some of the writings and links in this section relate to those ideas. Beyond that, it appears to me and many others that other strange things are happening more and more. Examples include increased sightings of UAP (unidentified anomalous phenomena) or UFOs, recent writings and communications about the Kordylewski plasma clouds, extraterrestrials, and discoveries from remote-viewing exercises, to name a few. I have placed in this section links to many of these issues. I am certain more will follow. I have also included new discoveries in the life of plants. Also some of the older, but still very important and insightful discoveries brilliant minds, such as Dr. David Hawkins, the Inventiveness of Slim Spurling and his Light-Life Tools and Light-Life Technologies, a beautiful book on cosmometry, and areas of science that I think are very important today. Contents of this section: Science & The Urantia Book New Investigations of Matter, Mind, & Spirit Consciousness & Energy Sound & Light Philosophy, Sociology, & Human Nature UAPs (UFOs) & Remote Viewing The "Big Bang" is such a powerful idea in science today and has been for many decades. Now it is falling apart as a theory. Here is a wonderful book that does the deed. And my essay on the subject. Return of the God Hypothesis: Three Scientific Discoveries That Reveal the Mind Behind the Universe —Breakthroughs in Physics, Cosmology, and Biology Seeking Evidence for the Existence of God "Beginning in the late 19th century, many intellectuals began to insist that scientific knowledge conflicts with traditional theistic belief—that science and belief in God are “at war.” Philosopher of science Stephen Meyer challenges this view by examining three scientific discoveries with decidedly theistic implications. Building on the case for the intelligent design of life that he developed in Signature in the Cell and Darwin’s Doubt, Meyer demonstrates how discoveries in cosmology and physics coupled with those in biology help to establish the identity of the designing intelligence behind life and the universe. "Meyer argues that theism—with its affirmation of a transcendent, intelligent and active creator—best explains the evidence we have concerning biological and cosmological origins. Previously Meyer refrained from attempting to answer questions about “who” might have designed life. Now he provides an evidence-based answer to perhaps the ultimate mystery of the universe. In so doing, he reveals a stunning conclusion: the data support not just the existence of an intelligent designer of some kind—but the existence of a personal God."

UB-related Books that I Found Worth Reading Expanding our understanding of The Urantia Book The Eden-Atlantis Project: The Archeological Site of Eden and Atlantis in the Eastern Mediterranean Plato's legendary account of a sunken island civilization called Atlantis has fascinated adventurers for centuries. Recent efforts to find Plato's lost island have culminated in two exciting underwater surveys in the Eastern Mediterranean that were staged in 2004 and 2006 both of which uncovered tantalizing evidence that strongly merits additional inquiry. In this color-illustrated book, Commodore Robert S. Bates sifts through the acquired evidence and argues that our search for Atlantis or what some call Eden may now be narrowed to a sunken continent adjacent to Cyprus that geologists located decades ago. The History Channel funded and filmed the second expedition to this site, but you will learn in this book why a third expedition may now be warranted. In recognition of the likely confluence of the two great legends of Atlantis and Eden, Bates calls the ongoing research into this sunken land the Eden-Atlantis Project. This short book offers you a thorough review of the recently obtained archeological evidence pointing to an Eastern Mediterranean location for Eden-Atlantis. It also links these new scientific facts with the historical evidence that a proto-civilization may have preceded the known civilizations of the ancient Near East. [From Amazon] To order this book... To order this book... JOIN THE ADVENTURE Read the book that launched a legendary Atlantis expedition and caused a news sensation around the world (also featured in the Sci-Fi Channel documentary: "Quest for Atlantis: Startling New Secrets," hosted by Natalie Morales). A second expedition may soon witness the filming of the colossal ruins of this once-mighty empire and change history forever. [From Amazon] Discovery of Atlantis: the Startling Case for the Island of Cyprus This book by Robert Sarmast relates to The Urantia Book , although it is only mentioned in the bibliography and not directly referenced. Sarmast's earlier works demonstrate a strong interest in the UB, and although the UB isn't explicitly discussed here, it is implied through images on his website (which is no longer available). Combining the UB's account of the first Garden of Eden with Sarmast's insights suggests that Atlantis was the original Garden's location, situated just west of modern Israel in the Mediterranean and now submerged. It's an engaging read with a persuasive argument. Knowledge from the UB about the first Garden of Eden, along with Sarmast's book, leads to the conclusion that Atlantis was the site of the first Garden, located just west of present-day Israel in the Mediterranean, and now sunk beneath the sea. A good read and compelling argument. The Secret Revelation The Sacred Ten: Book 1: The Quest for Truth & Book 2: Quantum Leaps to Paradise The Secret Revelation challenges this generation of Christians with a hopeful and original interpretation of John’s prophecy based on The Urantia Book . It provides Christian believers with a comprehensive introduction to the Urantia Revelation. The Book of Revelation has sparked debate, confusion, fear, and even armed conflict for two millennia; it is perhaps the most controversial document of all time. Its apocalyptical symbols have inspired countless interpretations and untold mischief throughout the Christian era. Today, this ancient text is very much alive: Based on their reading of it, tens of millions of Christians believe that a dire series of "end-time" events is imminent. But will such things really come to pass? Anyone concerned about the future of our planet and the core teachings of Christianity needs to come to terms with the Book of Revelation. Scholars have speculated that John's original writings were distorted, altered, and added to, and that much was simply lost. The Secret Revelation confirms that finding, corrects errors, and adds vast new insight. Apostle John was forced to write in codes and symbols, but from his celestial abode, he now speaks out once again to reveal what he actually saw and wrote. The Secret Revelation removes the secrecy from the Book of Revelation once and for all, unveiling the sublime grandeur of St. John’s original vision. What was Apostle John’s original vision? Disturbed by the images of impending apocalypse now being broadcast so widely by Christians, author Stella Religa went in search of the truth about biblical end-times prophecy. Using The Urantia Book as a crucial reference and gifted with extensive celestial assistance, Ms. Religa painstakingly reconstructs the Apostle John’s original vision, now buried in the Book of Revelation . She discovers that there will be no Antichrist, no Armageddon, and no "late great planet earth". Instead, you will learn that John's original message, inspired by a great and heavenly vision, was exclusively one of love and mercy, containing gentle but firm warnings to future believers.

- Who is Jesus? | The Urantia Book Stu
Who is Jesus? To "follow Jesus" means to personally share his religious faith and to enter into the spirit of the Master's life of unselfish service for man. One of the most important things in human living is to find out what Jesus believed, to discover his ideals, and to strive for the achievement of his exalted life purpose. Of all human knowledge, that which is of greatest value is to know the religious life of Jesus and how he lived it. ~ The Urantia Book, 196:1.3 "As Jesus Passed By" Jesus spread good cheer everywhere he went. He was full of grace and truth. His associates never ceased to wonder at the gracious words that proceeded out of his mouth. You can cultivate gracefulness, but graciousness is the aroma of friendliness which emanates from a love-saturated soul. Goodness always compels respect, but when it is devoid of grace, it often repels affection. Goodness is universally attractive only when it is gracious. Goodness is effective only when it is attractive. Jesus really understood men; therefore could he manifest genuine sympathy and show sincere compassion. But he seldom indulged in pity. While his compassion was boundless, his sympathy was practical, personal, and constructive. Never did his familiarity with suffering breed indifference, and he was able to minister to distressed souls without increasing their self-pity. Jesus could help men so much because he loved them so sincerely. He truly loved each man, each woman, and each child. He could be such a true friend because of his remarkable insight—he knew so fully what was in the heart and in the mind of man. He was an interested and keen observer. He was an expert in the comprehension of human need, clever in detecting human longings. Jesus was never in a hurry. He had time to comfort his fellow men "as he passed by." And he always made his friends feel at ease. He was a charming listener. He never engaged in the meddlesome probing of the souls of his associates. As he comforted hungry minds and ministered to thirsty souls, the recipients of his mercy did not so much feel that they were confessing to him as that they were conferring with him. They had unbounded confidence in him because they saw he had so much faith in them. He never seemed to be curious about people, and he never manifested a desire to direct, manage, or follow them up. He inspired profound self-confidence and robust courage in all who enjoyed his association. When he smiled on a man, that mortal experienced increased capacity for solving his manifold problems. Jesus loved men so much and so wisely that he never hesitated to be severe with them when the occasion demanded such discipline. He frequently set out to help a person by asking for help. In this way he elicited interest, appealed to the better things in human nature. The Master could discern saving faith in the gross superstition of the woman who sought healing by touching the hem of his garment. He was always ready and willing to stop a sermon or detain a multitude while he ministered to the needs of a single person, even to a little child. Great things happened not only because people had faith in Jesus, but also because Jesus had so much faith in them. Most of the really important things which Jesus said or did seemed to happen casually, "as he passed by." There was so little of the professional, the well-planned, or the premeditated in the Master's earthly ministry. He dispensed health and scattered happiness naturally and gracefully as he journeyed through life. It was literally true, "He went about doing good." And it behooves the Master's followers in all ages to learn to minister as "they pass by"—to do unselfish good as they go about their daily duties. ~ The Urantia Book, 171:7.0 From Truthbook - A Character Study of Jesus See more from this page in Truthbook.

The Parables of Jesus.pdf A shortcut to all of Jesus' parables "Jesus & the Future"– A teleseminar recording by Union of Souls 12-21-25 "The first in our teleseminar series on the cosmic religion of the future, sponsored by the Rodan Institute." -The Rodan Institute The Untold Story of Jesus: A Modern Biography from The Urantia Book Jesus comes to life in this fascinating modern biography excerpted from The Urantia Book. Many of these historical stories are familiar to readers of the New Testament but dozens are new, including the missing years not found in the Bible. Here you discover Jesus presented as never before, both as divine Son and human hero whose matchless life inspires, comforts, and transforms you. It is beautifully written in modern, page-turning prose and complemented with 106 paintings from 35 renowned artists, including 42 originally commissioned works you will see for the first time. The paintings run the gamut of fine art celebrating the life of Christ, both classic and modern. These artists poured their souls into these portraits of higher spiritual reality. Our deep appreciation and humble gratitude go out to each one of them. These paintings illustrate Jesus’ life journey from his humble birth and childhood to adolescence and manhood; from private to public ministry and on to his death, resurrection, and ascension. The artwork celebrates his diverse life as son, father-brother, carpenter, boat designer and builder, tutor, translator, caravan conductor, teacher, healer, minister, and friend. No one knows what Jesus looked like, but these artists painted their soulful interpretations to spark our imagination of these scenes from the Master’s life. Our intent is to give you a visual communion with Jesus that complements the enthralling narrative. This impeccably designed book provides relevant and empowering spiritual insights, helping you navigate the challenging yet promising conditions of the 21st century. We live in an exciting era of unprecedented improvements in our material lives brought about by scientific, industrial, and social achievements. Yet despite all this progress, many souls feel lonely and displaced. We need God and have an innate thirst for spiritual answers because of that “still, small voice” that lives within us. Finding God by living the personal religion of Jesus satisfies that thirst. The search for the genuine Jesus continues to intrigue humanity. Since the Bible only records an estimated 50 days of his life, it follows that there is more to his story. You will find it here in this detailed history of the Master’s entire life, including the public ministry recorded in the Gospels. It provides a coherent and seamless biography of this magnificent personality who continues to shape spiritual progress in our world. The story of Jesus is one of the most enthralling chapters in human history. The closing passage of the Apostle John’s gospel speaks to a life larger than even the world itself. How fitting that the last words of his gospel should be the first words of this book: “But there are also many things which Jesus did; were every one of them to be written, I suppose that the world itself would not contain the books that would be written.” In John’s day the Word was made flesh. In these days the Word is made book. The Untold Story of Jesus reveals the living Christ to members of the church that bears his name, as well as to worshipers of all world religions. It is sure to become a favorite volume for all who seek God. A Final Thought We pray that these stories, teachings, and paintings provide you with a new sense of faith, comfort, and purpose. And to you who may not believe in Jesus, we ask you to look again. Read the stories, enjoy the art, and get to know the man through new eyes. What the world needs now is unconditional love, unfailing compassion, and matchless goodwill. Even after two thousand years, Jesus’ teachings have not been practiced on a global scale. When that day comes, his inspired life will transform, transfigure, and rule this world. His message of personal faith in a loving heavenly Father coupled with unselfish service to one another is a clear and direct pathway to peace in this life and passage to the next. May you be blessed by the supreme adventure that follows! “Of all human knowledge, that which is of greatest value is to know the religious life of Jesus and how he lived it.” A talk with a witness in Bethsaida John Mark and Jesus spend the last Wednesday in the hills

Writings by others that I think are worthy of being on this site Jesus Christ - I Speak to You Again - Algimantas.pdf The text of this book was given to me by Warren Smith in 2018. Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East (6 Volume Set) [From Amazon]: "ELEVEN MEN embarked upon a journey in 1894 with one objective: to find the great spiritual teachers of the Far East and witness their uncommon abilities. Since these Masters were scattered over a wide territory that covered a large portion of India, Tibet, China, and Persia, they knew it could take years of searching many secluded villages and hidden mountain communes. Planning each step of the journey became a challenge knowing that countless miles of rugged terrain separated the remote and isolated locations that were imperative to the exploration. Even though they could plot their route on a map and see where they were headed, the destination deep within the souls of eleven scientifically trained men remained uncertain. Baird T. Spalding and the others were practical in nature and the thought of spiritual masters performing miracles seemed impossible. Despite these suspect thoughts, something compelled them to move onward. So they did." Baird Thomas Spalding (1872–1953) was an American spiritual writer, author of the spiritual book series: Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East. In 1924, Spalding published the first volume of Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East. It describes the travels to India and Tibet of a research party of eleven scientists in 1894. During their trip they claim to have made contact with "the Great Masters of the Himalayas", immortal beings with whom they lived and studied, gaining insight into their lives and spiritual message. This close contact enabled them to witness many of the spiritual principles evinced by these Great Masters translated into their everyday lives, which Spalding describes as acts that can be accomplished by anyone who comes to know his "TRUE" self. However, despite most of the action taking place in India, the Great Masters make it clear that the greatest embodiment of the Enlightened state is that of the Christ - the discovery of man's source of power within himself - that light of God - the Christ consciousness is that "Christ" state. Spalding is joined in India by a group of prestigious mystics and academics, including Paul Brunton and Walter Evans-Wentz. (Wikipedia) A Course in Miracles A Course in Miracles is a unique spiritual self-study program—a course in mind-training—designed to undo the illusion that you are separate in any way from God or your fellow humans. At the level of the mind we are all united as one. When we learn to live this truth consistently, fear, anger and guilt give way to a profound sense of inner peace. The Course systematically leads you to experience God’s Love in all your relationships through the practice of forgiveness (releasing the past), the willingness to receive and follow higher guidance, and the cultivation of miracle-mindedness. Happiness, peace, joy, and love are the natural outcomes of the Course’s teaching. A Course in Miracles consists of three separate volumes: Text, Workbook for Students and Manual for Teachers. The Text presents the theory of the Course, laying out its central ideas in a holistic, symphonic-like progression. The Workbook for Students provides 365 lessons, one for each day of the year. It begins the process of changing the student’s mind and perception. The Manual for Teachers is written in question-and-answer form to address many of the most important and practical Course topics. Also included in this Combined edition only are two valuable Supplements to the Course: Psychotherapy: Purpose, Process and Practice and the beautiful and inspiring Song of Prayer. Sources for the ACIM combined book and other related materials: How to Think Like Socrates: Ancient Philosophy as a Way of Life in the Modern World How can we apply the teachings of the greatest ancient philosopher to modern life? Socrates is the quintessential Athenian philosopher, the source of the entire Western philosophical tradition, and Godfather to the Stoics. He spent his life teaching practical philosophy to ordinary people in the streets of Athens, yet few people today are familiar with the wisdom he has to offer us. How to Think Like Socrates is an accessible and informative guide to the life of one of the greatest thinkers in history, and the first book to focus on applying his ideas to our daily lives. Author Donald J. Robertson transports readers back to ancient Athens, expertly weaving together a page-turning account of a philosopher who eschewed material pleasures and stood by his beliefs, even in the face of controversy, with a steadfastness that ultimately resulted in his execution. How to Think Like Socrates highlights the continuing value of the Socratic Method to modern life. As a practicing cognitive-behavioral psychotherapist, Robertson also uses his expertise to reveal many parallels between the evidence-based concepts and techniques of modern psychology and the philosophy of Socrates, and shows how his philosophical insights can guide and benefit all of us to this day.
