110:2.3 (1205.1) The Adjuster is not trying to control your thinking...

Mystery Monitors (MM) mainly are referred to as a Thought Adjuster in the text. That suggests to me the primary age range of the host the mind papers concern themselves with is 20 - 40 years. However, what is little spoken of is the designation of MM for a host age 40 and upward. During this stage of the host's life, MM is referred to as Thought Controller (TC). I think henceforward I will make a conscious effort to refer to the Monitor as TC because of the fact I am over forty years old.

What does Thought Controller mean? Is it that the Monitor seeks to control the thoughts? The title, Thought Controller, implies the idea of controlling. Yet, the following revelation says to the contrary, or does it?



Initially when I read this, I thought there seemed to be a contradiction between the title TC and what the above states. Now I do not think there is because the Thought Adjuster is an earlier phase of the Mystery Monitor, and during this phase, TA does not control the thoughts of its host. When the mind of the host reaches the age of discretion, I am of the opinion that that is exactly when MM begins to control the thoughts.

What are your thoughts?

107:0.6 The Adjuster is an absolute essence of an infinite being imprisoned within the mind of a finite creature which, depending on the choosing of such a mortal, can eventually consummate this temporary union of God and man and veritably actualize a new order of being for unending universe service. The Adjuster is the divine universe reality which factualizes the truth that God is man's Father. The Adjuster is man's infallible cosmic compass, always and unerringly pointing the soul Godward.

107:0.7 On the evolutionary worlds, will creatures traverse three general developmental stages of being: From the arrival of the Adjuster to comparative full growth, about twenty years of age on Urantia, the Monitors are sometimes designated Thought Changers. From this time to the attainment of the age of discretion, about forty years, the Mystery Monitors are called Thought Adjusters. From the attainment of discretion to deliverance from the flesh, they are often referred to as Thought Controllers. These three phases of mortal life have no connection with the three stages of Adjuster progress in mind duplication and soul evolution.

1:2.3 The actuality of the existence of God is demonstrated in human experience by the indwelling of the divine presence, the spirit Monitor sent from Paradise to live in the mortal mind of man and there to assist in evolving the immortal soul of eternal survival. The presence of this divine Adjuster in the human mind is disclosed by three experiential phenomena:

1. The intellectual capacity for knowing God—God-consciousness.
2. The spiritual urge to find God—God-seeking.
3. The personality craving to be like God—the wholehearted desire to do the Father's will.

13:1.22 The secrets of Ascendington include the mystery of the gradual and certain building up in the material and mortal mind of a spiritual and potentially immortal counterpart of character and identity. This phenomenon constitutes one of the most perplexing mysteries of the universes—the evolution of an immortal soul within the mind of a mortal and material creature.

:

The MM NEVER controls thoughts. Always do we have absolute free will. Not relative or partial or limited or subject-to will...but uncontrolled free will. We choose motive, intentions, priorities, directions, and make all decisions.

Never do the God Fragments control thoughts or free will. If given our knowing consent, blessing, and request, they spiritualize our thinking "process" or spiritize the mind. They honor our thoughts and will as we mature enough to discern their presence and cooperatively respond to their guidance.

But the perception of the human individual is at play. What possibilities are indrawn to the mind of that human individual, what values seem most important at play, in his "decision making process". There is actually only one will: the Will of the Universal Father, and it is incumbant upon the human indvidual to see his universe service in terms of "how may I do that Will", "what is my role in this universe capacity as a mortal creature?", and "what is the proper sincere effort to make This Day"?; "how can I "go outside" and find the right Mitzvahs in my personal relationships with other human individuals"?

Again, this perspective of "two wills", as Bradley has presented, is VERY confusing. If you are the father of a family, but you observe psychopathology within your household, from other members of your own family: whoa that is your issue, too. You would not want to file a tort against your own son, but "take the plight on as your own", your thoughts are controlled by the mystery of the emerging souls of the children God gave to your custody. Incredibly wow, you must concern yourself "how is the Mystery Monitor guiding the life in the soul of that one, that human individual?" Because in all things, the human individual confronted with God's will at the crossroads when his soul longing to work things out, to go outside and devote one's work in the greatest capacity to help the community one finds home in. That is not "how can I apply 'my own will' to the situation?" but "how shall the Universal Father (the great Hero of mankind), solve this situation with maximum deference and equanamity?"

Okay so now you are saying there are infinite wills. Maybe there are in fact infinite personalities of final perfected Beings and Creators. However what you are saying, to me, is like thinking "oh I do not need to fill my snazzy Ford Van at the Station like everyone else." "I have a will of my own". "I do not need to draw from Paradise, in order to experience God's Love." hahaha okay but we have both stated our view so I will leave this to the consideration of others.
