  He heard all the time. People say what is true?
• 0:02
  That what is truth? Anyway.
• 0:03
  Yeah truth is what you make. It truth is relative.
• 0:06
  Is there anything such thing as truth?
• 0:09
  I came to the conclusion. The one thing that can be
• 0:12
  verified by two separate individual Minds as an
• 0:15
  experience to me that constitutes truth.
• 0:18
  If two people can recognize the same physical event as
• 0:21
  recurring. Exactly.
• 0:23
  As it did. In that, that moment, that's
• 0:25
  truth. But you know what?
• 0:26
  That's, that's just a philosophy of truth.
• 0:28
  It's a way of trying to Wrap our minds around this idea that the
• 0:33
  Universe has value and meaning and that our minds are
• 0:36
  constantly trying to find Value and meaning trying to solve that
• 0:39
  puzzle. And that's where Mirage shimoda
• 0:42
  comes in and Mota is to philosophy.
• 0:45
  I guess what you would say morality is to religion, that's
• 0:49
  I'm making that up, but that's the correlation Mota, is to
• 0:53
  philosophy. What morality is to religion.
• 0:57
  So contemplate, that as we explore, Louder this time up on
• 1:01
  your rent. Radio the podcast.
• 1:02
  I'm so glad you could join me. Mota is a superior philosophy.
• 1:10
  It is to philosophy as to eyes are two one.
• 1:14
  It has a stereoscopic effect on meanings and values material,
• 1:18
  man. Sees the universe as it were
• 1:21
  with. But one, I flat Mansion World
• 1:24
  students achieve Cosmic perspective, depth by
• 1:27
  superimposing, the perceptions of the morontia life upon the
• 1:30
  perceptions of the physical life.
• 1:35
  Pretty interesting. Think about that for a moment
• 1:41
  and they are unable to bring these material and Mirage.
• 1:43
  All viewpoints into true Focus. Largely through the untiring
• 1:48
  ministry of their seraphic counselors who so patiently,
• 1:51
  teach the Mansion worlds students.
• 1:53
  And the Mirage, regressors many of the teaching counselors of
• 1:57
  the Supreme order of seraphim began their careers, as advisers
• 2:02
  of the newly liberated, Souls of the Immortals of time paper, 48
• 2:07
  6. As Mortals.
• 2:09
  So have these angels been father, too many disappointments
• 2:13
  and so they will point out that sometimes your most
• 2:15
  disappointing disappointments have become your greatest
• 2:19
  blessings. Sometimes the planting of a
• 2:21
  seed, necessitates its death, and the death of your fondest,
• 2:25
  hopes, before it can be reborn to Bear the fruits of new life
• 2:28
  and new opportunity. And from then you will learn to
• 2:31
  suffer less through sorrow and disappointment first by making
• 2:35
  fewer personal plans concerning other He's very key.
• 2:40
  And then by accepting your lot, when you have Faithfully
• 2:42
  performed your duty, you will learn that.
• 2:45
  You increase your burdens and decrease the likelihood of
• 2:48
  success by taking yourself too seriously.
• 2:51
  Nothing can take precedence over the work of your status, fear
• 2:55
  this world, or the next, very important, is the work of
• 2:58
  preparation for the next higher higher sphere.
• 3:02
  But nothing equals the importance of the work of the
• 3:05
  world in which you are actually living.
• 3:07
  But though, the Work is important.
• 3:09
  The self is not. When you feel important, you
• 3:12
  lose energy to the wear and tear of ego dignity.
• 3:16
  So that there is little energy left to do the work
• 3:20
  self-importance, not work importance, exhaust immature
• 3:23
  creatures. It is the self element that
• 3:26
  exhausts not the effort to achieve you can do important
• 3:30
  work. If you do not become
• 3:32
  self-important, you can do several things as easily as one,
• 3:36
  if you leave yourself out. Variety is restful.
• 3:39
  Monotony is what where's and exhausts day after day is alike,
• 3:43
  just life or the alternative of death?
• 3:48
  What is more on shimoda paper 48?
• 3:50
  71 the lower planes of miranshah mota.
• 3:53
  Join directly with the higher levels of human philosophy on
• 3:57
  the first Mansion world. It is the practice to teach the
• 4:00
  less Advanced students by the parallel technique that is in
• 4:05
  one column are presented. The more simple concepts of
• 4:08
  mode. Meanings and in the opposite
• 4:10
  column. Citation is made of analogous
• 4:13
  statements of moral philosophy, not long.
• 4:15
  Since while executing an assignment on the first Mansion
• 4:19
  world of see Tanya I had the occasion to observe this method
• 4:23
  of teaching and though I may not undertake to present the Moda
• 4:27
  content of the set of the lesson.
• 4:29
  I am permitted to record the 28 statements of human philosophy
• 4:33
  which this miranshah instructor was utilizing as illustrative.
• 4:38
  Material designed to assist these new mansion worlds
• 4:40
  sojourners in their early efforts to grasp, the
• 4:44
  significance, and meaning of Moda.
• 4:46
  These illustrations of human philosophy were a display of
• 4:50
  specialized skill, does not signify possession of spiritual
• 4:54
  capacity. Cleverness is not a substitute
• 4:57
  for true character. Few persons, live up to the
• 5:01
  faith which they really have unreason.
• 5:04
  Fear is a master intellectual fraud practiced upon The
• 5:09
  evolving mortal soul. I actually thought about that
• 5:11
  for a long time. And what I realized that the
• 5:14
  first sentence is basically, in complete alignment with the
• 5:18
  second sentence even though they seem to be almost diametric
• 5:21
  diametrically part. The meaning of that few persons
• 5:26
  live up to the faith, which they really have unreason.
• 5:29
  Fear is a master intellectual fraud practiced upon the
• 5:33
  evolving mortal Soul. What they're saying is it fear
• 5:35
  is what usually prevents people from living.
• 5:38
  Going up to the faith that they really have.
• 5:42
  Inherent capacities, cannot be exceeded.
• 5:44
  A pint can never hold a quart. The spirit concept cannot be
• 5:48
  mechanically forced into the material memory, mold few
• 5:52
  Mortals ever, dare to draw anything like the sum of
• 5:55
  Personality credits established by the combined ministries of
• 5:59
  Nature and Grace. The majority of impoverished.
• 6:02
  Souls are truly rich, but they refuse to believe it
• 6:06
  difficulties May challenge mediocrity and defeat the
• 6:09
  fearful, but they only stimulate the True Children of the most
• 6:12
  highs to enjoy privilege without abuse to have Liberty without
• 6:17
  Licence to possess power and steadfastly refused to use it
• 6:21
  for self and grand grand Iseman. These are the marks of high
• 6:25
  civilization, blind and unforeseen accidents do not
• 6:29
  occur in the cosmos. Neither do these Celestial
• 6:32
  beings assist the lower being who refuses to act upon his
• 6:36
  light of Truth. Ever does not always produce Joy
• 6:41
  but there is no happiness. Without intelligent effort,
• 6:45
  action, achieves, strength, moderation eventuates in charm
• 6:50
  righteousness strikes, the harmony chords of truth and the
• 6:53
  melody vibrates throughout the cosmos, even to the recognition
• 6:57
  of the infinite, the week indulge in resolutions.
• 7:01
  But the strong act life is but a day's work, do it?
• 7:05
  Well, the ACT is ours, the consequences gods.
• 7:09
  The greatest Affliction of the cosmos is never to have been
• 7:12
  Afflicted, Mortals, only learn wisdom by experiencing
• 7:16
  tribulation Stars, our best to stern from the lowly isolation
• 7:21
  of experiential depths not from the illuminated and ecstatic
• 7:25
  mountaintops whet the appetites of your Associates for truth.
• 7:30
  Give advice only when it is asked for.
• 7:33
  A fact ation is the ridiculous effort of the ignorant to appear
• 7:37
  wise the Tempt of the barren, soul to appear Rich.
• 7:42
  You cannot perceive spiritual truth until you feelingly
• 7:46
  experience, it. And many truths are not really
• 7:49
  felt except in adversity. Ambition is dangerous until it
• 7:54
  is fully socialized. You have not truly acquired any
• 7:58
  virtue until your Axe make you worthy of it.
• 8:02
  Impatience is a spirit poison angers like a stone hurled into
• 8:07
  a hornet's nest. Anxiety, must be abandoned.
• 8:11
  The disappointments hardest to Bear are those, which never come
• 8:17
  only a poet, can discern poetry in the commonplace pros of
• 8:21
  routine existence, the high mission of any Art Is by its
• 8:25
  Illusions to foreshadow a higher Universe reality to crystallize
• 8:30
  the emotions of time and to the thought of Eternity, the
• 8:35
  evolving soul is not made / what it does but by what it strives
• 8:39
  to do death added, nothing to the intellectual possession or
• 8:44
  to the spiritual endowment, but it Did add to the experiential
• 8:48
  status. The consciousness of survival.
• 8:52
  The destiny of Eternity is determined Moment by Moment by
• 8:55
  the achievements of the day. By day living.
• 8:58
  The acts of today, are the destiny of Tomorrow.
• 9:03
  Greatness lies. Not so much in possessing
• 9:05
  strength as in making a wise and divine use of such strength.
• 9:11
  Knowledge is possessed only by sharing, it is safeguarded by
• 9:14
  wisdom and socialized by love. Progress demands development of
• 9:20
  individuality mediocrity seeks perpetuation and
• 9:24
  standardization. The argumentative defense of any
• 9:29
  proposition is inversely proportional to the truth.
• 9:33
  Contained Such as the work of the beginners on their first
• 9:37
  match in Worlds. While the more advanced pupils
• 9:40
  on the later, worlds are mastering the higher levels of
• 9:43
  cosmic insight and more on shimoda.
• 9:46
  And then finally there's this on the philosophic coordination,
• 9:50
  it's a brief paragraph when the philosophy of man leans heavily
• 9:53
  toward the world of matter, it becomes rationalistic, or
• 9:57
  naturalistic, When philosophy and clients particularly toward
• 10:01
  the spiritual level, it becomes idealistic or even mystical when
• 10:07
  philosophy is so unfortunate as to lean upon metaphysics, it
• 10:11
  unfailingly becomes, skeptical, confused in past ages, most of
• 10:16
  man's knowledge and intellectual evaluations have fallen into one
• 10:20
  of these three, distortions of perception philosophy dare not
• 10:25
  projected to interpretations of reality in the linear fashion.
• 10:28
  Of logic. It must never fail to reckon
• 10:31
  with the elliptic symmetry of reality and with the essential
• 10:37
  curvature of all relation Concepts.
• 10:39
  And then finally, the highest attainable philosophy of mortal
• 10:43
  man must be logically based on the reason to science the faith
• 10:48
  of religion and the truth Insight afforded by Revelation
• 10:52
  by this. Union can man compensate
• 10:55
  somewhat for his failure to develop an adequate.
• 10:58
  Six and for his inability to comprehend the Mota of the
• 11:03
  miranshah. So we'll leave it.
• 11:05
  There is lots to ponder the philosophy of mortal man.
• 11:10
  Must be logically based on the reason of science, the faith of
• 11:14
  religion and the truth Insight afforded by Revelation.
• 11:18
  And when you have those three that compensates for the
• 11:22
  failure, to develop an adequate metaphysics, and for our
• 11:26
  inability to comprehend the Moda aspect of reality, that's what
• 11:31
  they're saying and that's where we'll leave it.
• 11:33
  So, thanks a For joining us to, I've always wanted to do a
• 11:37
  episode on miranshah Moda and bring out some of these gems.
• 11:41
  These true gems that just so many times, I've used him and
• 11:44
  said them in so many ways just drop them here and here and
• 11:47
  people really love these these quotes.
• 11:49
  So, paper 48 is where you'll find them Ron shimoda, until
• 11:53
  next time. Thanks again for joining me on
