Quotes From The Urantia Book
Regarding the Weaning of the Mortal Mind
"From the seventh to the third circle there occurs increased and unified action of the seven adjutant mind-spirits in the task of weaning the mortal mind from its dependence on the realities of the material life mechanisms preparatory to increased introduction to morontia levels of experience. From the third circle onward the adjutant influence progressively diminishes." P.1211 - §5
"Mortal mind, prior to death, is self-consciously independent of the Adjuster presence; adjutant mind needs only the associated material-energy pattern to enable it to operate. But the morontia soul, being superadjutant, does not retain self-consciousness without the Adjuster when deprived of the material-mind mechanism. This evolving soul does, however, possess a continuing character derived from the decisions of its former associated adjutant mind, and this character becomes active memory when the patterns thereof are energized by the returning Adjuster." P.1236 - §5
Lower Spiritual Urges: Adjutant Mind Spirit of Courage
Higher Spiritual Urges: Loyalty Towards Spiritual Realities
New Source: "God-knowing" would imply Thought Adjuster
"The courage of the flesh is the lowest form of bravery. Mind bravery is a higher type of human courage, but the highest and supreme is uncompromising loyalty to the enlightened convictions of profound spiritual realities. And such courage constitutes the heroism of the God-knowing man." P.1608 - §4
Lower: Adjutant Mind Spirit of Counsel
Higher: Recognition of True Relations
New Source: The Spirit of Truth
"The recognition of true relations implies a mind competent to discriminate between truth and error. The bestowal Spirit of Truth which invests the human minds of Urantia is unerringly responsive to truth--the living spirit relationship of all things and all beings as they are co-ordinated in the eternal ascent Godward." P.647 - §4
Lower: Adjutant Mind Spirit of Worship
Higher: Soul Worship
New Source: Thought Adjuster
"The worship experience consists in the sublime attempt of the betrothed Adjuster to communicate to the divine Father the inexpressible longings and the unutterable aspirations of the human soul--the conjoint creation of the God-seeking mortal mind and the God-revealing immortal Adjuster. Worship is, therefore, the act of the material mind's assenting to the attempt of its spiritualizing self, under the guidance of the associated spirit, to communicate with God as a faith son of the Universal Father. " P.66 - §4
Lower: Intuition, Understanding, Knowledge and Wisdom
Higher: Faith-Insight, Spiritual Reason and Spiritual Philosophy
New Source: Cosmic Mind, Thought Adjuster, Creative Spirit, the Spirit of Truth
"Faith-insight, or spiritual intuition, is the endowment of the cosmic mind in association with the Thought Adjuster, which is the Father's gift to man. Spiritual reason, soul intelligence, is the endowment of the Holy Spirit, the Creative Spirit's gift to man. Spiritual philosophy, the wisdom of spirit realities, is the endowment of the Spirit of Truth, the combined gift of the bestowal Sons to the children of men." P.1108 - §1
