Prolotheos: “I see that you have paid much attention to certain ancient existential questions about God and His relationship with human beings, especially the ones that really know Him and call themselves children, friends and even servants of God. I do encourage you to enlist these questions in our conversation, no matter how startling they may appear at first sight. So begin. Question away!

1. Why does it Occasionally Seem that God is Indifferent?

“The impression that God is indifferent to your situation comes from your inability to see the answers God has given to your prayers and claims. If God is in fact, silent (and He might choose to be silent) it is because the right time for Him to respond has not arrived, either because the circumstances are not appropriate or because you wouldn’t, at that moment, understand His answer. You should consider that in fact, even God’s silence is an answer to you. God is never indifferent to you or your life.

2. Why does it Occasionally Seem that God is Inconsistent?

“Again, the appearance that God is inconsistent is only a limited human impression, due to a misleading conclusion. God, in His absolute perfection, cannot ever be ultimately inconsistent with Himself. Sure, facts, and even acts of God and credit to God may sometimes appear contradicting, but ultimately, they are not. God’s logic is infinite, impenetrable, and beyond the creature’s total understanding. God’s plans unveil into His Universe Ages and you may be assured that while they now may look inconsistent, at the end of this age, they will look logical to man, even infinite, because God Himself is infinite. However, God is never, in any way, inconsistent.

3. Why does it Ocasionally Seem that God is Inconsequential?

“Nothing God does is inconsequential. The actions of God concerning human beings are of two orders: justice and providence. Justice reveals the universal goodness, truth and beauty (perfection) of God to his children. Providence is God supplying everything that man really needs, once he has chosen to follow God’s path. Again, it is your human incapacity to see God’s actions that lead to the misconception that God could be inconsequential. All that pertains to you matters to God and He always acts in regard to your ultimate well-being. Rest assured, God is never inconsequential.

“Thanks, my pupil, for these important questions about commonplace misconceptions about God that have troubled human beings from Job to nowadays. Simply put, God could never be indifferent, inconsistent or inconsequential, because He is, after all, perfect! However, God understands that those are questions that human beings, His children, sometimes harbor in their thoughts and, if they are sincere and honest, God is never tired of again and again answering them and showing them that He is never any of these!

I am Prolotheos, your celestial tutor and teacher, glad that you summoned me again. Peace!”

The Seasons of Life

The Seasons of Life

Prolotheos is the Teacher

Chicago, USA, November 12, 2015

Prolotheos: “Eternity in Universal Philosophy is defined as cycles — unending cycles. One way to see the life of ascendant children of God is to understand it as a rising, infinite cycle. This idea connotes both repetition, progress and elevation. In life, events, situations, circumstances reappear as if they were running in circles, but they are only similar and dynamic cycles, because although they seem the same, they are not identical. Every human being experiences birth, life and death, but the specifics of each life, for although similar, are very distinct from each other. In this opportunity let us pause to reflect on the Seasons of Life and how to make the most of them. In general we can find three kinds of seasons in the life of mature human beings.

“The Season of Planning. Human beings usually do not do things randomly. As beings with personality, you also do not do things purely automatically or instinctively. You are capable of planning, capable of analyzing a move before performing the actual move. You can prepare and analyze your plans in your mind before executing them, to know what could be the possible consequences of your actions. There are also things that humans do without needing to plan them every time. Once you execute a certain action with success, you are capable of repeating it based on the previous experience. But, human beings spend much of their mental activity planning their actions, and rightly so, because to do things without thinking can have disastrous consequences.

“The Season of Doing. Those that spend too much time planning, but never doing are those who are afraid to take risks. Every action brings a possibility of failure. Humans, although intelligent beings, are incapable of covering all the possibilities, which the Deities and some Divine Sons can do to perfection, including the Deities of all universes, and the Divine Sons to specific areas of their jurisdiction. Actions have a tendency to produce unexpected results that sometimes cannot be corrected. In planning and evaluating the possible results one is liable to miss something important. However, to never act for being afraid of consequences is called cowardice. Experiences, good or bad, accrue to one’s personal growth. You cannot grow if you do not have the courage to do what you think is right and necessary.

“The Season of Rest. There are beings in the universe of universes who never need to rest. They were created for the function that is in their nature and for eternity they will discharge those functions without needing rest. That is not the case with human beings. Here in the morontia worlds and even in eternity, human beings always will need and enjoy seasons of worship, rest and play. Those are things that are done for the sake of themselves. In executing assigned works you contribute to goals beyond yourself. The seasons of worship, rest and play you perform to simply enjoy them. Worship, rest and play are as important and necessary as planning and doing. So, reserve time for rest, both physical, mental and spiritual.

“Therefore, my pupil, learn to discriminate between these seasons and again listen to the words of old: ‘There is a season for everything.’ To know what to do at the right moment is something that cannot be overvalued; it is essential to your life if you want to be in charge of it as much as you can be. Although perfect knowledge in these areas is almost impossible, you do have help available to you. First, listen to the Spirit Within incessantly guiding you towards the will of God. Also seek advice that more experienced people may have and research things that puzzle you. The answer is both within and out there. I am Prolotheos, your any-time available teacher and tutor. Peace to you and all.”

Living Better With Yourself

Living Better With Yourself

Prolotheos is the Teacher

Received by Valdir Soares

Bacolod City, Negros Occ, Philippines, March 29, 2018

Teacher: Prolotheos: “Living is an interactive technique with the environment, with yourself and others. You are conditioned by the environment, but you can also modify it to your convenience. You are conscious of yourself and relate to the self by reflecting and making decisions. Others prompt you with the most meaningful kinds of relationships — personal interaction, and this includes God. Life may become stressful, disappointing and extremely distasteful if not put under control and managed wisely. Today, let us discuss how to live better with the self. Here are some suggestions:

1. — Let Small Things Go.

“Granted, small things can become big problems in life, but only if you let them become big and give them more importance than they deserve. On letting small things go, first, make sure what is and what is not important in your life. What is important to some may not be so important to others; therefore, it is an individual assessment. Small things may be outside of your range of decisions — things that may be big in scope, but over which you have no control — you cannot alter them. Or, small things are those that are not worthy of your reaction, because it may just be a waste of time or your response may make them worse. Every event has a consequence; however, some situations are better left alone. On determining what is small or not, pay attention to relationships, finances and health issues — usually those are not small and should not be left alone.

2. — Laugh at Yourself.

“It is dangerous to take yourself too seriously. Simply speaking, it shows a selfish and individualistic attitude, if not an exaggerated concept of self-importance. Laughing at the self must be a genuine attitude, not out of resentment or pretentiously. You really have to see yourself as silly by doing something that is really ridiculous. But, if you don’t see it, it won’t work. Irony, sarcasm or regret will not do it. In fact, only a balanced sense of your own importance will enable you to laugh at yourself. To be able to laugh at yourself, you must do some reflection to find out how ridiculous a particular situation really is. All of us, evolutionary creatures on the way to perfection — but not yet there — can do it because the alternative is to think we are perfect like the Gods and that is pretty ridiculous.

3. — Live a Day at a Time.

“Can we really do it differently? We can only live one day at a time — this time called Present. Many people surely do try to live more than a day at a time, by attempting to stay in the past or projecting themselves on the future. None of these are possible. All that happens is a failure to live or a failure to not live in the only dimension in which we can really live — the present. From the past we get experiences and by looking towards the future we exercise our hope; they together help us to keep our living in the present wiser and hopeful. Living a day at a time requires focusing on the tasks at hand, on the routines of the day-to-day daily duties. Life is many times very stressful and the temptation to avoid it is great. Face the challenges of your daily living with courage and enjoy leisure and relaxation. Living a day at a time is all you can do — why not enjoy it?

“Therefore, my pupil, living better is possible if you make the right use of these three simple techniques: Let small thing go, that is, know how to determine what is small in your life and don’t let them grow out of proportion. Genuinely laughing at yourself is evidence that you have reached a balanced perspective of the self. You can find your own silliness and laugh at it. You can only live a day at a time, learn to do it right and enjoy it. I am Prolotheos — your teacher and tutor on High. Peace!”
