This week on The Cosmic Citizen we journied deeper into Urantia Paper 17.  The Seven Supreme Spirit Groups, with a reading of Section 4. The Reflective Image Aids and Section 5. The Seven Spirits of the Circuits. We read more about the 49 Reflective Image Aids. They are the perfect reproductions of their Spirit ancestors, the Reflective Spirits. We've discussed them in other episodes. The Reflective Image Aids serve as living channels of communication between the Reflective Spirits and the Ancients of Days. Though they appear personal, these beings are without will, existing solely as flawless mirrors of their source, forever stationed at the side of their creators. We then read about the Seven Spirits of the Havona Circuits. These are the impersonal offspring of the Infinite Spirit and the Seven Master Spirits. These Circuit Spirits permeate each of Havona’s seven circuits, ensuring unified spiritual supervision across the central universe. While they never commune directly with ascending pilgrims, their presence is felt through the tertiary supernaphim, guiding souls as they advance circuit by circuit toward perfection. Together, these two sections reveal the intricate web of reflectivity and impersonal spirit ministry that sustains the vast architecture of creation.Listen in as we uncover how these mysterious beings embody the balance of individuality and unity, personality and impersonality, in the eternal design of the universes.

This week on The Cosmic Citizen we continued our study of Urantia Paper 17. The Seven Supreme Spirit Groups by reading and discussing Section 3. The Reflective Spirits. The Reflective Spirits are the forty-nine beings of Trinity origin who embody the perfect interplay of the Universal Father, Eternal Son, and Infinite Spirit. They are stationed across the seven superuniverses to form a living mirror of divinity that retains, transmits, and preserves the true spiritual records of creation. We explore how reflectivity serves as the universe’s information dissemination system and acts as a living intelligence that transcends time and space. The Reflective Spirits are more than cosmic transmitters: they are keepers of living records, voices to the Ancients of Days, and participants in the great jubilee of universes settling into light and life. Join us as we discover how reflectivity reveals the hidden harmony of God’s presence in all things.

Majeston: The Reflective Heart of the Universe In this week's episode, we continued our journey into Urantia Paper 17, The Seven Supreme Spirit Groups with a reading of Section 2. Majeston—Chief of Reflectivity We explored the cosmic origins of Majeston, the Chief of Reflectivity and the singular personality born of the Supreme Being in liaison with the Deity Absolute. We discovered the awe-inspiring emergence of the Reflective Spirits. They are beings of divine Trinity origin who create synchrony between the Seven Master Spirits and the Paradise Trinity. (Reflectivity is a spiritual mirror of the Supreme Mind. It reflects not only facts, but meanings and values.  It is the means by which the divine responds to the evolving universe in perfect harmony.) Majeston is not merely a figure of celestial coordination; he is the infallible center of reflectivity across all seven superuniverses, rather like a living nexus of divine perception and spiritual alignment. His creation marks the first supreme creative act of the Supreme Being and signals a new epoch in the unfolding drama of experiential Deity. Listen in as we contemplate the astonishing implications of this and discover what Majeston’s existence reveals about the nature of divine will, cosmic unity, and the limitless potential of spiritual evolution!

On this episode of The Cosmic Citizen, we began our exploration of a new paper, Urantia Paper 17 — The Seven Supreme Spirit Groups This paper unveils Seven Supreme Spirit Groups and the mighty beings who coordinate divine administration across the grand universe.We started with the preamble, setting the stage with a sweeping overview of these seven orders, each distinct yet unified in purpose, serving as spiritual agents of the Infinite Spirit and the Paradise Trinity. We then dove into Section 1: The Seven Supreme Executives. The awe-inspiring administrators who preside over the seven superuniverses from their headquarters worlds.They act as personalized expressions of the Infinite Spirit, embodying the will of the Paradise Trinity and harmonizing spiritual and material forces across vast cosmic domains. Their influence is not direct or personal, it is systemic, and it ensures cosmic order, spiritual equity, and evolutionary progress. Listen in as we explore how these Supreme Executives function as divine regulators and shape the destiny of worlds and souls through their omnipresent coordination and as we embark on this new chapter of the superlative revelations from The Urantia Book.                                                                                                                                                                                        

In this episode, we completed our exploration of Urantia Paper 16. The Seven Master Spirits, with a reading and discussion of Section 9. The Reality of Human Consciousness.   This section explores the divine origin, structure, and purpose of human consciousness. It affirms that consciousness is not an accidental byproduct of evolution, but a cosmic endowment, a sacred interface between the material and spiritual realms.  Also, in this section, the revelators illuminate the profound mystery of human consciousness. What is it that makes us aware, reflective, and spiritually responsive? How does personality unify mind and spirit into a living soul? The revelatory insight that consciousness is a cosmic phenomenon, a gift of mind ministry that allows us to perceive truth, beauty, and goodness. This section challenges us to consider the divine origin of our awareness and our sacred responsibility in cultivating it. Listen in as we wrap up this remarkable paper and reflect on the interplay between mind, spirit, personality, and true spiritual consciousness. It is more than a philosophical inquiry, it is a call to awaken, to live consciously, and to embrace the divine partnership unfolding from within.

This week on The Cosmic Citizen, we explored the profound mystery of personality with a reading and discussion of Urantia Paper 16 - The Seven Master Spirits, Section 8: Urantia Personality This section explores the nature of human personality as a unique, original gift from the Universal Father. Personality is not defined by form, mind, or spirit status, but by its enduring identity and capacity for self-consciousness and relative free will. These faculties manifest through moral decision, spiritual choice, love, loyalty, insight, devotion, and worship. Endowed with cosmic mind and divine personality, all Urantia mortals can be spiritually recognized as Sons of God who are responsive to the Father’s personality-gravity and capable of eternal fellowship. Far more than a psychological construct, personality is a unique and divine endowment. It is bestowed by the Universal Father and is independent of the indwelling Thought Adjuster. From self-consciousness and moral decision to worship and cosmic insight, discover the seven expressions of relative free will that define the human personality. Learn how our individuality is not only recognizable but eternally significant, enabling us to respond to the gravitational pull of the Paradise Father and awaken to our true kinship with Deity. Listen in, as we unpack how this sacred gift functions through the interplay of material, mindal, and spiritual energies, and how it anchors our cosmic identity across time and through many transformations.

This week on The Cosmic Citizen we’ll continue our study of Urantia Paper 16, The Seven Master Spirits, by reading and discussing Section 7. Morals, Virtue, and Personality The Fragrance of Virtue: Morality, Personality, and the Cosmic Mind In the teachings of The Urantia Book, we discover that virtue is not merely learned but rather is chosen, lived, and revealed through the sacred dance of intelligence, insight, and free will. In this episode, we explore the divine architecture of human morality as revealed in The Urantia Book. What makes a human being truly moral? Beyond intelligence lies a sacred endowment, personality that is infused with moral intuition, scientific curiosity, and spiritual insight. Unlike animals who learn by trial and error, we are gifted with foresight, the ability to “look before we leap,” and to choose virtue with intention and clarity. We discover on how morality is not imposed by law or force but awakened through the living example of spiritually fragrant souls. Virtue is not merely knowing what is good, it is the progressive experience of choosing the greater over the lesser, of aligning our will with the divine will. This episode invites listeners to consider the art of moral measurement, the discrimination of values, and the supreme act of choosing to do the Father’s will. We uncover the cosmic significance of moral living and the transformative power of personality endowed with spiritual insight. It is not just philosophy, it’s a call to live with purpose, discernment, and divine alignment.

Mapping Divine Spirit Intelligence In this episode of The Cosmic Citizen, we went deep into the mind architecture of the universe as revealed in Sections 5 and 6 of Urantia Paper 16, The Seven Master Sprits. In Section 5, Relation to Creatures, we read how the Seven Master Spirits play a profound role in shaping the identity and destiny of all intelligent beings throughout the grand universe. While every universe benefits from the collective wisdom of all seven of the Master Spirits, each is uniquely conditioned by the personal influence of just one Master Spirit. This influence permeates the entire superuniverse, imprinting a spiritual and psychological "signature" on every creature born within it. While mortals on evolutionary worlds like Urantia are deeply affected through the ministry of the Creative Mother Spirit, her nature closely mirrors that of the presiding Master Spirit. Therefore, in essence, the Master Spirits ensure that every creature carries a cosmic heritage, an enduring spiritual fingerprint that reflects the diversity and unity of the divine plan. In Section 6. The Cosmic Mind, we discoverd the divine scaffolding that supports all will creatures in their pursuit of truth, beauty, and goodness. We explored the three innate cosmic intuitions, which are causation, duty, and worship, and discover how they shape our scientific reasoning, moral compass, and spiritual yearning. A key feature of the cosmic mind is its ability to foster kinship among human and superhuman minds, leading to cooperation and shared understanding. This is due to an inherent sensitivity known as the "reality response” which helps us to navigate the assumptions of science, philosophy, and religion with discernment and clarity. From the kinship of minds to the reality response, this episode reveals how the cosmic mind is not just a theological concept, it is the living interface between the finite and the infinite.

This week on The Cosmic Citizen we continued our study of Urantia Paper 16. The Seven Master Spirits, with Section 4. Attributes and Functions of the Master Spirits This section unveils the profound role of the Seven Master Spirits as the Infinite Spirit’s full representation to the evolutionary universes. Originating from the Paradise Deities, the Master Spirits embody the physical power, cosmic mind, and spiritual presence of Triune Deity. They function as supreme coordinators of energy, mind, and spirit across the superuniverses. We took a trip into the luminous heart of Paper 16, Section 4 of The Urantia Book, exploring the awe-inspiring attributes and functions of the Seven Master Spirits, to unravel their role as supreme coordinators of energy, mind, and spirit across the superuniverses. We discovered their mysterious connection to morontia substance as well as their influence on life initiation, spiritual bestowals, and the reflectivity mechanisms that defy mortal comprehension and while much of their work remains unrevealed, their contribution to our Paradise ascent is profound. Listen in as we contemplate the ineffable majesty of these cosmic administrators who bridge the material and spiritual realms, shaping the architecture of reality, and guiding the soul’s journey toward perfection.

Channels of Divine Presence—The Infinite Spirit and the Seven Master Spirits This week on The Cosmic Citizen, we dove into the heart of cosmic administration and spiritual intimacy as revealed in Paper 16. The Seven Master Spirits.  We read and discussed SectionsSections 2: Relation to the Infinite Spirit & 3: Identity and Diversity of the Master Spirits. Listen in as we discover how the Infinite Spirit, the third person of Deity, is revealed not in isolation, but through the majestic diversity of the Seven Master Spirits. These luminous beings that preside over the superuniverses, each uniquely and exquisitely expressing the Infinite Spirit’s presence, personality, and power. We explored the spiritual mechanics of divine communication across the universe of universes and marveled at how the Infinite Spirit’s presence is personalized through the Seven Master Spirits, noting the collective omnipotence, omniscience, and omnipresence of these seven divine channels. We imagined what it means to commune with the Master Spirit of our superuniverse, and how that might shape our own spiritual journeys and we contemplated the layered beauty of divine distribution. Enjoy! Please Note: There is no live episode scheduled on Saturday, October 4th. We'll see you on the 11th.
