Mansion Worlds in the Universe: Do they Really Exist? What Purpose Do they Have?

For those of us who live in the current century having some contemporary knowledge in the advancement of science, it is not difficult to understand the countless numbers of stars , planets and planetary satellites that occupy the vast universe space. All these are said to be clustered in innumerable galaxies. The stellar distances are beyond our human comprehension and are measured in parsecs (3.262 light years) or light years (300000 x 365 x 24 x 3600 kilometers). Our current record of a manned spacecraft's speed is about 40000 km/hr. Such a spacecraft would take about 74 years to cover the distance traveled by light in an year. The nearest star other than our sun is Proxima Centauri which is about 4.24 light years away from us. Even if we travel by the impossible speed of light we would take 4.24 years to reach near that nearest star. Our fastest spacecraft would require 313 years to accomplish that! Incidentally our own sun is at a distance of 149.4 million km from us and its light takes about 8 minutes to reach us.

It is clear then that it would be impossible for us human beings to reach to even to the nearest solar systems in the future due to our age and speed limitations. Our scientists now estimates the diameter of the observable universe something about 93 billion light years. Obviously our current telescopes such as the Hubble space telescope provide us much insight to our scientists about the enormous size of our universe and the enormous numbers of stars and other stellar bodies which our universe contains. Scientists now estimate that there are at least 70 thousand million million million stars in the universe!

Our scientists have now come to a stage that they are finding it difficult to postulate any cohesive theories about the universe now. Things are becoming incomprehensible to their finite and limited intellects.

That is where the revealed cosmology that is given in my favorite book (the Urantia Book) becomes something of relevance. 

I am a student of this revealed knowledge and I keep pondering why such a revelation is provided to mankind in the 20th century? I do find logic and purpose in that.

Now consider the following which my book has revealed to humans way back in the early 20th century when our cosmic science was only in its nascent state. 

It says that there are about 7 trillion planets where intelligent material life exists. They are divided in to seven vast space regions called the super universes, with each super universe holding approximately one trillion material worlds more or less similar to our earth. The invisible author of Paper-15 of the book tells like this:

(Quote) The grand universe number of your world, Urantia, (earth) is 5,342,482,337,666. That is the registry number on Uversa (HQ of super universe number-7) and on Paradise (Centre of all the whole grand universe and the seat of the Universal Father God), your number in the catalogue of the inhabited worlds. I know the physical-sphere registry number, but it is of such an extraordinary size that it is of little practical significance to the mortal mind.Your planet is a member of an enormous cosmos; you belong to a well-nigh infinite family of worlds, but your sphere is just as precisely administered and just as lovingly fostered as if it were the only inhabited world in all existence.(Unquote)

All material in the form of visible matter and energy in the universe is produced from a source of invisible energy of the universe whose source is the Universal Father God. That is the primordial energy and force. There exists living intelligent beings in the primordial energy level and they have been in existence before the material forms came in to existence. Our scientists are wondering about the 96 % of invisible energy in the universe! The rationality of thought of our scientists have to make a paradigm shift if they intent to proceed further! Convergence of spiritual philosophy and scientific philosophy is going to be a reality in the near future due to this.

I have written about these and you can find those in various other articles in this blog site.

Now let me address the topic about what is known as the mansion worlds. 

Many Christians keep wondering about Jesus Christ's parting assurances to his disciples that is given in John 14:1 where he mentions about the many mansions that exist in his Father's (Universal Father God's)  house. 

What are these mansions? The Urantia Book now clarifies it by giving more explanations to this. It says that these are the mansion worlds- the transition training worlds for humans who survive their material death. 

The invisible author of Paper-47 of the book tells us like this: (Quote) The Creator Son (of God), when on Urantia, spoke of the “many mansions in the Father’s universe.” In a certain sense, all fifty-six of the encircling worlds of Jerusem (name given for the divine administration head quarters of the system of mortal inhabited worlds that includes our earth)  are devoted to the transitional culture of ascending mortals (mortal beings whose personalities are prevented from total loss and are provided the chance of immortality and personality progress) , but the seven satellites of world number one are more specifically known as the mansion worlds.

Transition world number one itself is quite exclusively devoted to ascendant activities, being the headquarters of the finaliter corps assigned to Satania (name of the system of worlds that includes earth). This world now serves as the headquarters for more than one hundred thousand companies of finaliters, and there are one thousand glorified beings (mortals who survived earthly death) in each of these groups.

Glorious Earthly Mansions!

What This Could Be in the Mansion Worlds?

When a system is settled in light and life (the pinnacle of material progress), and as the mansion worlds one by one cease to serve as mortal-training stations, they are taken over by the increasing finaliter population which accumulates in these older and more highly perfected systems.

The seven mansion worlds are in charge of the morontia supervisors and the Melchizedeks. There is an acting governor on each world who is directly responsible to the Jerusem rulers. (Unquote)

What we understand from the extensive information in this book is this: 

The mansion worlds are worlds specially made by God's administration for giving an opportunity to mortal beings such as human beings of earth to remove their negative qualities and traits and progress more and more towards divine qualities. These worlds are perhaps several light years away from us and it would not be possible for us to travel to those by our materially invented means of transport.

Death on earth and other similar mortal worlds serves two purposes essentially.

Firstly, it weeds out those who do not have the essential characteristics to gain immortality and divinity.

Secondly, it provides an opportunity for God's administration to de-materialize the screened human personalities and transport them to far away celestial places and again materialize them in bodies that are superior to material forms (such as the morontia form). Thus, all humans with survival characteristics (as judged by the celestial administration) take a kind of re-birth in the distant mansion worlds. There they are taught and trained in all those things which they ought have learnt while on their material existence but failed to do so due to various reasons. The mansion world life make the imperfect human personalities more and more perfect in divine standards and equip them to advance further to higher forms of divinity to reach the presence of the the ultimate power and glory of God.

The Urantia Book authors remind us that while God is love, mercy and justice, the human life is not some thing which is a purposeless accident of the universe. It has a definite purpose determined by the Supreme Intelligence of the Universe. And human beings are not helpless and abandoned orphans who are destined to float aimlessly. All of them have a purpose and they all have responsibilities while they live their short life in their respective material worlds.

When they ignore their respective responsibilities beyond a certain limits they tend to live a life which is characteristically erroneous and evil and they also tend to reject the love of God. Life of such individuals reduces to that of plants and animals which has only local relevance and no future perspective. Their life and life purpose ends when they die.

On the other hand, all those who essentially lead a life fulfilling certain basic characteristics that respect divine love and justice tend to become prospective candidates for immortality and personality survival even after material death. This is true even for those who commit certain circumstantial errors in life, but not repeating those willfully. They are essentially good and pious people who recognize the love of God.

Yet, survival of death to gain immortal personality survival is not so simple and easy for inherently vicious people. No spiritual rituals or beliefs could perhaps change that. For example, the bread and wine ceremony of the churches would not possibly ensure salvation as Christians commonly love to believe. As God sees the human mind, God judges every one according to his or her true standing regardless of their apparent appearance and acts in the society!

We need to give a serious thought to all these! 

An Introduction to the Seven Absolutes of Infinity !

This is my one hundred and fiftieth blog in this site. There are all chances that you leave this page as quickly as you entered !

That is no surprise to me !

I know very well that it would be the case with the majority of people.

Any way this is for those minuscule number of people whose inner self gets a flash of joy when some absolute truths come to their notice, provoking their thoughts.

But I am no body to do such a thought provoking writing.

I am just a mortal agent who has been subtly instructed to reproduce a part of a writing to some of those who are readers of my blogs.

The author of the piece of writing I am going to reproduce below is not a human being.

He is a Melchizedek.

As the topic is very complex for me to explain, I suggest that you read it in the original words of the author itself :

The seven prime relationships within the I AM eternalize as the Seven Absolutes of Infinity. But though we may portray reality origins and infinity differentiation by a sequential narrative, in fact all seven Absolutes are unqualifiedly and co-ordinately eternal. It may be necessary for mortal minds to conceive of their beginnings, but always should this conception be overshadowed by the realization that the seven Absolutes had no beginning; they are eternal and as such have always been. The seven Absolutes are the premise of reality. They have been described in these * papers as follows:

1. The First Source and Center. First Person of Deity and primal nondeity pattern, God, the Universal Father, creator, controller, and upholder; universal love, eternal spirit, and infinite energy; potential of all potentials and source of all actuals; stability of all statics and dynamism of all change; source of pattern and Father of persons. Collectively, all seven Absolutes equivalate to infinity, but the Universal Father himself actually is infinite.

2. The Second Source and Center. Second Person of Deity, the Eternal and Original Son; the absolute personality realities of the I AM and the basis for the realization-revelation of “I AM personality.” No personality can hope to attain the Universal Father except through his Eternal Son; neither can personality attain to spirit levels of existence apart from the action and aid of this absolute pattern for all personalities. In the Second Source and Center spirit is unqualified while personality is absolute.

3. The Paradise Source and Center. Second non-deity pattern, the eternal Isle of Paradise; the basis for the realization-revelation of “I AM force” and the foundation for the establishment of gravity control throughout the universes. Regarding all actualized, nonspiritual, impersonal, and nonvolitional reality, Paradise is the absolute of patterns. Just as spirit energy is related to the Universal Father through the absolute personality of the Mother-Son, so is all cosmic energy grasped in the gravity control of the First Source and Center through the absolute pattern of the Paradise Isle. Paradise is not in space; space exists relative to Paradise, and the chronicity of motion is determined through Paradise relationship. The eternal Isle is absolutely at rest; all other organized and organizing energy is in eternal motion; in all space, only the presence of the Unqualified Absolute is quiescent, and the Unqualified is co-ordinate with Paradise. Paradise exists at the focus of space, the Unqualified pervades it, and all relative existence has its being within this domain.

4. The Third Source and Center. Third Person of Deity, the Conjoint Actor; infinite integrator of Paradise cosmic energies with the spirit energies of the Eternal Son; perfect co-ordinator of the motives of will and the mechanics of force; unifier of all actual and actualizing reality. Through the ministrations of his manifold children the Infinite Spirit reveals the mercy of the Eternal Son while at the same time functioning as the infinite manipulator, forever weaving the pattern of Paradise into the energies of space. This selfsame Conjoint Actor, this God of Action, is the perfect expression of the limitless plans and purposes of the Father-Son while functioning himself as the source of mind and the bestower of intellect upon the creatures of a far-flung cosmos.

5. The Deity Absolute. The causational, potentially personal possibilities of universal reality, the totality of all Deity potential. The Deity Absolute is the purposive qualifier of the unqualified, absolute, and nondeity realities. The Deity Absolute is the qualifier of the absolute and the absolutizer of the qualified—the destiny inceptor.

6. The Unqualified Absolute. Static, reactive, and abeyant; the unrevealed cosmic infinity of the I AM; totality of nondeified reality and finality of all nonpersonal potential. Space limits the function of the Unqualified, but the presence of the Unqualified is without limit, infinite. There is a concept periphery to the master universe, but the presence of the Unqualified is limitless; even eternity cannot exhaust the boundless quiescence of this nondeity Absolute.

7. The Universal Absolute. Unifier of the deified and the undeified; correlator of the absolute and the relative. The Universal Absolute (being static, potential, and associative) compensates the tension between the ever-existent and the uncompleted.

The Seven Absolutes of Infinity constitute the beginnings of reality. As mortal minds would regard it, the First Source and Center would appear to be antecedent to all absolutes. But such a postulate, however helpful, is invalidated by the eternity coexistence of the Son, the Spirit, the three Absolutes, and the Paradise Isle.

It is a truth that the Absolutes are manifestations of the I AM-First Source and Center; it is a fact that these Absolutes never had a beginning but are co-ordinate eternals with the First Source and Center. The relationships of absolutes in eternity cannot always be presented without involving paradoxes in the language of time and in the concept patterns of space. But regardless of any confusion concerning the origin of the Seven Absolutes of Infinity, it is both fact and truth that all reality is predicated upon their eternity existence and infinity relationships.

If you have not really understood all the above and yet have the keenness to know more, you are perhaps a person ignited with the desire to know more about God.

In that case you should consider reading the whole of those 196 papers (*) which form my favorite book of life guidance. The portion that is given above is from paper-105 authored by a Melchizedek living in the universe of Nebadon (part of the physical Milky Way Galaxy ) ruled by the Michael of Nebadon.

About Civilization, Social Values & Population Growth : Some Facts You May Find Difficulty in Digesting !

In this blog I would like to present to my readers a few passages from Paper-68 of the Urantia Book which describes the evolution of civilization on earth and the factors that governs human evolutionary progress. Those intellectually keen and desirous to understand would be surprised to notice some hints given in the passages informing how the Divine Powers subtly oversee and monitor the human evolution without actually interfering with it directly. 

The author of the Paper is a Melchizedek, an order of celestial beings who function in our universe. They are told as involved in providing education, training and knowledge to evolving intelligent life including human beings. Such kind of knowledge imparted by these celestial beings are defined as revelatory knowledge or revelations in contrast to the knowledge gained by human beings through evolutionary development over the ages.

Incidentally the Urantia Book also reveals much details about the Melchizedek order of celestial beings in a few other Papers dealing with this subject. It is also revealed in this book that the human biblical character named Melchizedek who lived on earth during the times of Abraham some 5000 years ago was a member of this order of beings ( This Melchizedek lived on earth in human form for nearly 100 years to impart various kinds of knowledge, mostly spiritual, to some people of earth who were capable of understanding his teachings to some extent. You may read my blog " Melchizedek: A Name Most Revered and Least Understood!")

Now coming to the passages which I selected for those interested to read. You may please note that these are information told to us human beings by some order of intelligence superior to us, who have been observing human development ever since life originated on earth.

Please read carefully :

" Civilization is a racial acquirement; it is not biologically inherent; hence must all children be reared in an environment of culture, while each succeeding generation of youth must receive anew its education. The superior qualities of civilization—scientific, philosophic, and religious—are not transmitted from one generation to another by direct inheritance. These cultural achievements are preserved only by the enlightened conservation of social inheritance."

" When brought closely together, men often learn to like one another, but primitive man was not naturally overflowing with the spirit of brotherly feeling and the desire for social contact with his fellows. Rather did the early races learn by sad experience that "in union there is strength"; and it is this lack of natural brotherly attraction that now stands in the way of immediate realization of the brotherhood of man on Urantia (earth) ".

" Association early became the price of survival. The lone man was helpless unless he bore a tribal mark which testified that he belonged to a group which would certainly avenge any assault made upon him. Even in the days of Cain it was fatal to go abroad alone without some mark of group association. Civilization has become man's insurance against violent death, while the premiums are paid by submission to society's numerous law demands."

" That contemporary cultural society is a rather recent phenomenon is well shown by the present-day survival of such primitive social conditions as characterize the Australian natives and the Bushmen and Pygmies of Africa. Among these backward peoples may be observed something of the early group hostility, personal suspicion, and other highly antisocial traits which were so characteristic of all primitive races. These miserable remnants of the nonsocial peoples of ancient times bear eloquent testimony to the fact that the natural individualistic tendency of man cannot successfully compete with the more potent and powerful organizations and associations of social progression. These backward and suspicious antisocial races that speak a different dialect every forty or fifty miles illustrate what a world you might now be living in but for the combined teachings (of some celestials) and the later labors of the racial uplifters (of the Adamic groups)."

" While the level of intelligence has contributed considerably to the rate of cultural progress, society is essentially designed to lessen the risk element in the individual's mode of living, and it has progressed just as fast as it has succeeded in lessening pain and increasing the pleasure element in life. Thus does the whole social body push on slowly toward the goal of destiny—extinction or survival—depending on whether that goal is self-maintenance or self-gratification. Self-maintenance originates society, while excessive self-gratification destroys civilization."

" History is but the record of man's age-long food struggle. Primitive man only thought when he was hungry; food saving was his first self-denial, self-discipline. With the growth of society, food hunger ceased to be the only incentive for mutual association. Numerous other sorts of hunger, the realization of various needs, all led to the closer association of mankind. But today society is top-heavy with the overgrowth of supposed human needs. Occidental civilization of the twentieth century groans wearily under the tremendous overload of luxury and the inordinate multiplication of human desires and longings. Modern society is enduring the strain of one of its most dangerous phases of far-flung inter- association and highly complicated interdependence."

" Hunger, vanity, and ghost fear were continuous in their social pressure, but sex gratification was transient and spasmodic. The sex urge alone did not impel primitive men and women to assume the heavy burdens of home maintenance. The early home was founded upon the sex restlessness of the male when deprived of frequent gratification and upon that devoted mother love of the human female, which in measure she shares with the females of all the higher animals. The presence of a helpless baby determined the early differentiation of male and female activities; the woman had to maintain a settled residence where she could cultivate the soil. And from earliest times, where woman was has always been regarded as the home."

" Almost everything of lasting value in civilization has its roots in the family. The family was the first successful peace group, the man and woman learning how to adjust their antagonisms while at the same time teaching the pursuits of peace to their children."

" If vanity be enlarged to cover pride, ambition, and honor, then we may discern not only how these propensities contribute to the formation of human associations, but how they also hold men together, since such emotions are futile without an audience to parade before. Soon vanity associated with itself other emotions and impulses which required a social arena wherein they might exhibit and gratify themselves. This group of emotions gave origin to the early beginnings of all art, ceremonial, and all forms of sportive games and contests."

" Vanity contributed mightily to the birth of society; but at the time of these revelations the devious strivings of a vainglorious generation threaten to swamp and submerge the whole complicated structure of a highly specialized civilization. Pleasure-want has long since superseded hunger-want; the legitimate social aims of self-maintenance are rapidly translating themselves into base and threatening forms of self-gratification. Self-maintenance builds society; unbridled self-gratification unfailingly destroys civilization."

" Hunger and love drove men together; vanity and ghost fear held them together. But these emotions alone, without the influence of peace-promoting revelations, are unable to endure the strain of the suspicions and irritations of human inter-associations. Without help from superhuman sources the strain of society breaks down upon reaching certain limits, and these very influences of social mobilization—hunger, love, vanity, and fear—conspire to plunge mankind into war and bloodshed."

" The peace tendency of the human race is not a natural endowment; it is derived from the teachings of revealed religion, from the accumulated experience of the progressive races, but more especially from the teachings of Jesus, the Prince of Peace."

" All modern social institutions arise from the evolution of the primitive customs of your savage ancestors; the conventions of today are the modified and expanded customs of yesterday. What habit is to the individual, custom is to the group; and group customs develop into folkways or tribal traditions—mass conventions. From these early beginnings all of the institutions of present-day human society take their humble origin."

" It must be borne in mind that the mores originated in an effort to adjust group living to the conditions of mass existence; the mores were man's first social institution. And all of these tribal reactions grew out of the effort to avoid pain and humiliation while at the same time seeking to enjoy pleasure and power. The origin of folkways, like the origin of languages, is always unconscious and unintentional and therefore always shrouded in mystery."

" The survival of a society depends chiefly on the progressive evolution of its mores. The process of custom evolution grows out of the desire for experimentation; new ideas are put forward—competition ensues. A progressing civilization embraces the progressive idea and endures; time and circumstance finally select the fitter group for survival. But this does not mean that each separate and isolated change in the composition of human society has been for the better. No! indeed no! for there have been many, many retrogressions in the long forward struggle of Urantia (earth) civilization."

" Man is a creature of the soil, a child of nature; no matter how earnestly he may try to escape from the land, in the last reckoning he is certain to fail. "Dust you are and to dust shall you return" is literally true of all mankind. The basic struggle of man was, and is, and ever shall be, for land. The first social associations of primitive human beings were for the purpose of winning these land struggles. The land-man ratio underlies all social civilization." 

" Man's intelligence, by means of the arts and sciences, increased the land yield; at the same time the natural increase in offspring was somewhat brought under control, and thus was provided the sustenance and leisure to build a cultural civilization." 

" Human society is controlled by a law which decrees that the population must vary directly in accordance with the land arts and inversely with a given standard of living. Throughout these early ages, even more than at present, the law of supply and demand as concerned men and land determined the estimated value of both. During the times of plentiful land—unoccupied territory—the need for men was great, and therefore the value of human life was much enhanced; hence the loss of life was more horrifying. During periods of land scarcity and associated overpopulation, human life became comparatively cheapened so that war, famine, and pestilence were regarded with less concern."

" The size of the family has always been influenced by the standards of living. The higher the standard the smaller the family, up to the point of established status or gradual extinction."

" All down through the ages the standards of living have determined the quality of a surviving population in contrast with mere quantity. Local class standards of living give origin to new social castes, new mores. When standards of living become too complicated or too highly luxurious, they speedily become suicidal. Caste is the direct result of the high social pressure of keen competition produced by dense populations."

" From a world standpoint, overpopulation has never been a serious problem in the past, but if war is lessened and science increasingly controls human diseases, it may become a serious problem in the near future. At such a time the great test of the wisdom of world leadership will present itself."   

Hope you had the patience to read this long.

If you had, you could have digested some of those and also have noticed certain things that are food for thought for you. You may also read the Paper-68 in full if you so wish.

Any way to tell you the truth, the revealed knowledge that the Urantia Book authors present to the human beings of the modern era have indeed made my mind awestruck and making it polished day by day.

Are Ghosts Real ?

Human beings, regardless of the region, country, race, language or religion do really have some kind of fear or curiosity to know about the existence of some kind of invisible beings moving around in this world doing many discreet acts that some humans here and there have been witnessing at times for centuries.

In general they are called ghosts. The term ghost in English is used to represent a kind of vague imagination or outline of an imagery of someone who is not visible directly but whose presence is otherwise experienced. All languages have a term to represent this phenomena. [For example, പിശാച് = Pishaash , ഭൂതം = Bhootham , സാത്താന്‍ = Saathan, യക്ഷി = Yakshi, രക്ഷസ്സ്= Rakshass, കുട്ടിച്ചാത്തന്‍ = Kuttichaattan, പ്രേതം= Pretham , മറുത= Marutha, Jinn = ജിന്‍ etc., in Malayalam language]

Hence, logically it could be concluded that there is some substance in the human concept of a ghost which is not scientifically proven yet. Neo-scientists of the past decades preferred to consider ghosts as a mere imagination of the fear filled mind of human beings.

But in the recent years, there are some scientists who spend much of their time and efforts to track down some ghosts and to establish some contact with those entities. The national geographic channel and the discovery channels occasionally enlighten us about the progress of such research works. There are even registered societies now who are in the field of this research. [See the website of the Ghost Research Society   as a typical example. There are hundreds of such websites in existence now, some trying to prove the existence of ghosts, some trying to disprove and some unbiased and just curious to investigate the facts !]

I have personally not come across any ghosts or their acts in my life. But I have heard of people known to me talking about their experiences. By analysing the various reports and histories that are recorded and available, I prefer to believe that ghosts are not merely an imagination of immature minds.

I was curious to know more about this subject and the actual facts behind this phenomena that has been haunting the human beings for ages.

To my great relief, this subject is also covered in detail in my favorite guide book which gave me the confidence to live like a matured human being leaving apart the anxieties and worries of life that I had for many years earlier. I also know that millions of human beings are in a state similar to the one that I had some years ago.

One of the purpose of my writing blogs here is to aid those few people who are willing to spend a few minutes reading my experiences to transform their lives to a better one by overcoming their anxieties and worries of life and live their life fully useful to them as well as  to others around them.

Now coming back to the question of ghosts. Are they real ? We need to know the facts. The what-why-who regarding ghosts in the most matter of fact manner. Now the facts I am going to summarize below are based on the information that I gathered from my favorite guide book of revealed knowledge.

Ghosts are in fact real. They exist and live on this earth. But they are not the loitering souls of the dead people. On the contrary, they are real invisible living beings who came into existence some thousands of years ago and are intelligent living personalities with some abilities much more than human beings.

The total number of these beings on earth is limited. In total there are 51,984 of these now living on this earth. Out of these 50,000 are much senior in age than the rest. The seniors came into existence nearly 200,000 years ago and the latter during the time of Adam and Eve, some 38,000 years ago.

They are normally not visible to human beings, but humans with some special sensory faculties of brain activated are able to visualize their presence. They are capable of travel at speeds near to light and do not eat or drink for energy. They are capable of taking energy directly from the universe energy sources that are available on earth. They are capable of making their presence felt to humans, but normally they avoid such a situation.

Though they do not die and are with a much higher intelligence and capabilities than human beings, they are not gods or even spiritual beings such as angels.

They are intelligent living being midway between human beings and spirit beings generally known as angels. Hence, an appropriate nomenclature to designate these special living beings of earth is Midway creatures or simply Midwayers.

The Midwayers are capable of causing effects of movement and changes on materials, but do not attempt such things under normal circumstances.

In a way the Midwayers of earth are the permanent citizens of earth and are the ones who are ensuring the over control of God's administration on the material realm of earth. They are subordinate to higher supervisory agents of the God's administration generally coming under the angelic orders.

Unfortunately, the majority of the Midwayers of earth have participated in a kind of rebellion against the Universal Rule of God and had worked to isolate earth from God some thousands of years ago and were successful in isolating earth from God by their nefarious activities. To do this they used their powers to project themselves appear as gods to innocent human beings.

As of today, their powers have been much curtailed. The smaller group of Midwayers comprising of 10,992 individuals have now established their line of administrative control with the Universal Administration of God to some extent. This group is now called the United Midwayers and they in a way work to fail the nefarious activities of the larger rebellious group. The rebellious group are in a way direction less now, as their top leaders in higher levels of existence are all rendered powerless to continue with their rebellion.

As of today, the larger rebel midwayer group keep doing their gimmicks of diverting human beings from the will of God, by helping out those humans who wish to adhere to such things that make them depart from God. On the other hand, the smaller group tries to help those humans who wish to adhere to goodness that God wants to perpetuate.

But it is to be noted that the Midwayers of both groups do not interfere with human activities under normal circumstances. However, human beings of lower mind capacities and those who have willingly submitted their mind to act against God's will come under the game plans of the larger rebel group in one way or the other.

Those of you who want to know more about my favourite guide book may visit my website dedicated to it. This website would also give the links to read the book online, if you so desire.

Recently, an Indian reader of this site informed me of the plans he and his friends to make a film on the Midwayers based on Urantia Book-my guide book of revealed knowledge.

I earnestly hope that their efforts would help more people to know of the facts that they should know.

[Those of the readers here who are of a higher intellectual level are likely to laugh at me for selecting a topic like this not suited for educated people. They are the scientifically oriented minds who wish to see things rationally. But at the same time the world is so large and innumerable incidences of the unexplainable varieties keep happening which make many people plunge into superstitions and constant fears. There are a good number of people who draw the gullible people to the realm of magics and other such things where the 'invisible powers' are 'used' for getting various kinds of temporary 'benefits'. Though such powers exist, there is absolutely no need to be scared of these as they are not empowered now to do any harm to normal people. At the same time it is not wise to seek any of those rebellious invisible powers for temporary benefits of any kind]

Melchizedek: A Name Most Revered and Least Understood !

Modern historians believe that the three major world religions, Judaism, Christianity and Islam, had a common ancestry. These three religions are also called the Semitic religions because of their common Afro-Asian linguistic origins.

All these religions accept Abraham or Abram as the founder forefather of their religious and cultural origins. The religious holy books of these three religions, the Jewish Bible, the Christian Bible and the Quran have many things in common as far as some of the historical events and incidences are concerned.

In the Bible, both in the Old Testament and in the New Testament there are some revered references to a person named 'Melchizedek'.

He was stated as a person whom Abraham revered and perhaps adored. The inspired Bible authors even try to relate Jesus Christ as a successor of this very same Melchizedek.

However, a good majority of people from all these religions have pretty no idea about this personality. I being a Christian have noted this name only much later in my life.

I write this blog because for quite some time I have been receiving mental instructions, perhaps from my inner soul, for writing a blog on this great character of the Bible.

First let me reproduce below some of the verses from the Bible which refer to Melchizedek :

In Genesis 14:18 we read like this : And Melchizedek, the king of Salem and a priest of God Most High, brought Abram some bread and wine.

In Psalm 110:4 it is written: The LORD has taken an oath and will not break his vow: "You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek."

This Melchizedek was an extra-ordinary person capable of blessing Abraham on behalf of God !

The Bible says in Genesis 14:19 like this : Melchizedek blessed Abram with this blessing: "Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth.

In the New Testament especially in the epistle of St.Paul to the Hebrews there are more about Melchizedek from which we can safely presume that apostle Paul knew much more about Melchizedek than anyone else. Let me quote :

In Hebrews 7:4 Paul says : Consider then how great this Melchizedek was. Even Abraham, the great patriarch of Israel, recognized this by giving him a tenth of what he had taken in battle.

There are nineteen or so references in the Bible where the name Melchizedek appears. Both the Old Testament and the New Testament give much reverence to this name.

Yet for centuries, we did not have an opportunity to know more about this great historical personality who lived on earth during the times of Abraham.

The three major Semitic religions, though different, have many things in common with the other major religions and cultures such as Confucianism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Jainism and even the modern Sikhism.

I often used to wonder about the possible connections of ideas of all these religions.

Human historians and writers might have written thousands of volumes of commentaries and opinions on all these illuminating their readers with their hypotheses.

But there was no concrete and authentic repertory from which we could have possibly derived an answer to all these without ever making a disturbing crack in our logical mind.

But by our good fortune, the situation had changed ever since the Urantia Book got published way back in 1955.

Now we know the complete information about Melchizedek through the super humanly revealed knowledge that is contained in this great revelatory knowledge book of our times!

We have been also told about the work this Melchizedek had done on earth when he lived for nearly hundred years in a place known as Salem which is the present day Jerusalem under modern Israel.

He was responsible for initiating the pre-historic mankind to the real knowledge of God and real spiritual awakening from the tribal or animistic worship cultures that existed before. His disciples were the first ever spiritual missionaries to the world now referred in the Urantia Book as the 'Salem Missionaries' who paved the foundations of religious beliefs for our modern day religions of the Occident and the Orient. 

According to the Urantia Book, the name Melchizedek is a common name used to denote a class or order of high ranking celestial personalities belonging to a Local Universe such as our own local universe called Nebadon. ( Nebadon is part of the Super Universe called Orvonton and the latter comprises most of what we astronomically distinguish as the Milky Way Galaxy. The Local Universes are not physical systems, but they are administrative divisions of the Super Universe, the division being done on the basis of the numbers of planets where intelligent mortal life is thriving. Our lonely planet of life in the Solar System, earth, is given the name Urantia and it is one among 3.8 million such planets containing intelligent mortal life under our local universe Nebadon whose Sovereign Lord is Michael of Nebadon who happened to live on earth as Jesus Christ some 2000 years ago.]

Melchizedeks keep doing invaluable service to the upkeep and celestial administration of the local universe and they are capable of doing various kinds of duties.

The Melchizedek who lived in the form a human being at the time of Abraham is identified as Machiventa Melchizedek and he is one of the Melchizedeks responsibly connected to the celestial administration of earth in some way.

Out of the 196 odd papers of the Urantia Book, some 30 are authored by the Melchizedek order of celestials.[Interested in seeing the names of the authors of the various papers of the Urantia Book? Click Here!]

The general nature of the work of the Melchizedeks is explained in Paper-35 of the Urantia Book which is authored by a celestial self identified as the 'Chief of Archangels'. [If you are interested you can read this paper online using this title link 'the Local Universe Sons of God']

Now about the detailed life of the very same Melchizedek who lived during the time of Abraham in the appearance and nature of a human being is elaborated in Paper-93 of the Urantia Book titled 'Machiventa Melchizedek' which is authored by another celestial belonging to the Melchizedek order.

It is indeed a great reading for those who are inclined to know more. It would give you the rare opportunity of knowing more about this biblical character who was not a human being, but lived among the humans appearing as a human being.

The great sage who taught Abraham and many others about God and initiated in them the quest for knowing God and living the manner in which God wanted them to live !

In short it is all about the founder of all religions of this world !

This celestial personality while living in Salem (now Jerusalem) some 3000 years before Jesus Christ in the form of a human being, taught the human tribes of that time about the true God, the Universal Father God. The effort culminated in to the formation of a group of enlightened disciples of this Melchizedek known as the Salem Missionaries who moved out in to all territories preaching about the nature of God.

Some of them reached India. Their efforts and the effects later on these teachings in India is further depicted in this Paper titled : 'The Melchizedek teachings of the orient'. This paper describes a commentary on Hinduism, Brahmanism, Buddhism and Jainism etc admixed with the teachings of the Salem missionaries in this part of Asia.
