Outside The Cave

1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:03,440
Welcome to another edition of
the Urancha Radio podcast where

2
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:07,280
we talk about the fifth epical
revelation, the Urancha book.

3
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:09,840
Long time student.
I'm your host been doing.

4
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:13,960
I think we're probably over 250
episodes.

5
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:17,600
So we're making some progress
and and we still haven't even

6
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:19,800
gotten started.
I do want to tell you there are

7
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:22,920
some things coming up.
If you haven't heard, a couple

8
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:26,800
of events, social events for
your various Urancha groups

9
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,120
around the world.
IC 26 is coming up.

10
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,560
That will be July 12th.
That's the one that's out in

11
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:38,880
California, in Monterey.
What is the name of that town?

12
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,240
I can't remember it.
It's kind of a unusual name.

13
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:46,840
Solaris or Solimar Solimar.
Is that it?

14
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:52,000
Solimar, SOLIMAR.
That'll be on July 12th.

15
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,200
Also, there's a conference
coming up August 21st on

16
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,600
Michael's birthday, a Day with
the Angels Conference.

17
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,800
And you can find some of this
information is on the Center for

18
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,080
unity.org website, but that's
coming up.

19
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:11,360
It will be a sacred gathering to
explore the gentle whispers of

20
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,840
the angels.
The first conference in this

21
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,200
series will focus on our
planetary angels.

22
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:20,400
Future conferences will address
local Universe Angels, Super

23
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:24,960
Universe Angels and central
Universe angels and that will be

24
00:01:24,960 --> 00:01:31,400
held in San Antonio.
And the event you can call

25
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:38,920
210-288-2863.
And you can talk to Katrina

26
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:44,280
Glavin Heiss again,
210-288-2863.

27
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,840
San Antonio, if, if you get it
right, is a great city,

28
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,400
especially if you love Mexican
food.

29
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:56,000
Anyway, that's August 21st.
And that sounds nice, doesn't

30
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,120
it?
Again, what was that number that

31
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:03,080
I gave you?
210-288-2863 Maybe angels will

32
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:04,560
be there.
I'm sure.

33
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,880
I'm sure they will be.
I know that the angels are

34
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,960
trying hard.
They're trying to bring peace to

35
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,720
the world, that's for sure.
You know, there's a whole

36
00:02:14,920 --> 00:02:18,480
section in the Urantia book
about angels and what they do.

37
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:24,360
And I often read it for comfort.
I find that I, I'm, I'm more at

38
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:31,320
ease on my home planet knowing
that there are angels working on

39
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,520
our behalf.
So, and, and that's an uplifting

40
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,240
idea.
And, and a lot of people believe

41
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,960
in angels.
I know people who are not even

42
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,240
religious and they believe in
guardian angels, and that's a

43
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:44,640
step.
It's a small step.

44
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:49,680
I like the fact that the Urantia
book says the only good can come

45
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,680
from knowing more about your
unseen friends.

46
00:02:53,440 --> 00:03:00,480
OK, so the topic of this subject
is The Cave, The Cave, Steven

47
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,720
Spielberg, the Urantia book, and
the silo.

48
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,120
Now, what do they all have in
common?

49
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,040
Well, I'm going to talk about
them on this program and they do

50
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,560
have something in common.
They there's a philosophical

51
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,560
thread that runs through those
four things.

52
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,400
And there's a new movie out that
I've been watching with my wife

53
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:23,440
called Silo and they start their
third season.

54
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,760
It's pretty good, could be a lot
better.

55
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:32,600
I'm, I'm hearing that the book
is really good, but it plays on

56
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:37,600
a very old allegory really.
And it's a movie with Rebecca

57
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,600
Ferguson.
And if you like her and Dawn or

58
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,040
Dune, which I think she's
fabulous, I think you'll like

59
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:44,320
her.
I think she really pulls this

60
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,320
off.
And it takes place in the

61
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,200
future.
And the scenario is that there's

62
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:53,480
10,000 people for unknown
reasons living underground in a,

63
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:58,840
in a, in a silo that is
extremely deep, big enough to

64
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:03,240
accommodate these people.
Later they learned that there's

65
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,440
actually more than one silo.
But for this particular silo,

66
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,120
the group lives in relatively
law and order.

67
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,840
They have justice, they have
tribunals, they have, they seem

68
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:20,160
to have a sort of an echo of a
constitutional government.

69
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:26,440
And the people inside cannot go
outside because if they, they,

70
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,080
if they do, they'll die.
They see that because there's a

71
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:33,280
big monitor and all the social
rooms like a window that shows

72
00:04:33,280 --> 00:04:37,080
them what's outside.
And what's outside is darkness,

73
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,800
deadness, dead trees, dead
landscape, no life.

74
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:46,160
On occasion when people are in
desperate positions or they,

75
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,520
they just feel they got to get
out, they don't believe it

76
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,320
anymore.
People say I want to go out and

77
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:55,200
they're allowed to go out.
And then people watch them

78
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,480
literally die because once they
get outside, they realize, uh

79
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,600
oh, I made a mistake.
I thought there was something

80
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,320
more.
So from birth to death, these

81
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,880
people believe that there is no
anything else other than where

82
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,680
they are.
So watching that show made me

83
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:17,800
think of Plato's Cave and from
my college days when I took

84
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,560
philosophy, that one of the
first things you learn is The

85
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,840
Cave and the whole metaphor of
The Cave.

86
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:30,920
Plato used that as as an
allegory that shows that people

87
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:35,400
can be conditioned to accept and
and create an entire reality

88
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:42,320
over the accepted notion of what
they think is reality and this.

89
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:47,440
So in a sense, they're sort of
shackled in this cave and they

90
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:51,240
see a lighted wall and they see
shadows of what they imagine is

91
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:55,200
outside of The Cave, but they do
not know for sure and they can

92
00:05:55,200 --> 00:06:00,520
never leave The Cave.
And except that someone does

93
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,680
leave The Cave.
And when they go outside, they

94
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,120
are at first blinded by
everything that they see.

95
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:11,120
They see the sun and but after a
while they, they come to realize

96
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:15,120
that there is abundant life
outside of cave.

97
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,760
And this person eventually goes
back into The Cave and tries to

98
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,040
tell everyone, hey, there's
something out there.

99
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:24,440
It's beautiful.
It's wonderful.

100
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:28,520
You, you should come see it.
There's things of substance,

101
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:33,600
There's fresh air, there's
beautiful flowers and tiny

102
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:37,720
little animals that flatter
their wings and they fly around.

103
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:43,040
It's it's beyond compare.
But the people in The Cave, they

104
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:47,240
don't believe him, and they
refuse to leave because they

105
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,320
don't believe him and they're
safe.

106
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,680
And so that leads to this
discussion that I have in my

107
00:06:55,680 --> 00:07:00,680
mind about the Urantia Book and
why over the years so many

108
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:07,040
people are hesitant to consider
new truth or ideas or are

109
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:11,240
hesitant to believe that a book
could exist, such as the Urantia

110
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:15,400
Book, a book coming from the
other side, a book that informs

111
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:20,320
us what is outside of our cave.
And that cave is called earth.

112
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,360
Now, some people don't want to
leave The Cave.

113
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:30,320
Others, those who have power and
maintain status and position in

114
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:34,960
The Cave would lose that status.
Possibly, if people were to

115
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:39,640
discover life outside The Cave,
they might shift their

116
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,760
priorities.
They might even revolt because

117
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:46,360
they know the truth of what is
outside of The Cave.

118
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:52,880
When the Urantia book reveals
the Father's plan and informs us

119
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,640
of his galactic family of spirit
beings who help orchestrate the

120
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:02,640
plan of universal progress and
growth, many refuse to believe

121
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:06,000
it.
Or they've been taught that such

122
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,680
reality is for children and
doesn't really exist.

123
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,640
They are taught this reality
that life on earth is the only

124
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:18,680
thing and the only thing that
matters, and it makes people

125
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:22,760
feel safe.
It also makes people get nervous

126
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,680
and restless, like me.
Now, you could say the same

127
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,640
thing about Christianity, a
religion that helps people feel

128
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,640
safe because that they know that
life ultimately is in God's

129
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,000
hands.
And that's a shared principle

130
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:41,000
with the Urantia book.
God is centered to everything,

131
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:45,360
not mortal man.
And man, yes, has limited

132
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,920
control on what we can do and
how we can feel.

133
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:52,000
And but it's so limited.
It's finite and it's also short

134
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:56,200
lived.
It's understandable why people

135
00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:00,240
remain in the silo or in The
Cave and why they reject people

136
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,320
who try to tell them what's
outside of The Cave.

137
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:09,080
It's because of this simple fact
many people prefer safety above

138
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,600
all other things.
Anything that threatens that

139
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:18,720
security or safety is dangerous.
The Urantia book is as much a

140
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:22,880
wonderful document as it is a
dangerous and powerful weapon

141
00:09:23,680 --> 00:09:29,080
against evil and untruth.
And This is why I think it's

142
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:34,440
easier to watch a Steven
Spielberg film about ETS than it

143
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,720
is to read the Urantia book,
which tells us exactly who they

144
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:44,960
are and where they are.
And in every generation, there

145
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,880
will be those who seek truth,
and those who are just happy

146
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,720
living day by day, being told
what is true and what isn't.

147
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,800
And it is also true.
There are those who reject truth

148
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:03,560
because it might require them to
change their way of thinking and

149
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:07,880
look at a new paradigm or a new
philosophy or a new

150
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:12,760
responsibility.
It is a wondrous universe, but

151
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:18,480
it is not for the timid.
That's a quote from Q on Star

152
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,320
Trek The Next Generation, but
it's an appropriate one.

153
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,320
It is a wondrous universe, but
it is not for the timid.

154
00:10:25,680 --> 00:10:30,840
Because if we are to be the
future builders of this new

155
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:35,400
universe, and if there is a
personality continuance, a plan

156
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:40,040
that I can be a part of, limited
only by my willingness to

157
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:47,040
participate, then count me in.
And such a commitment requires

158
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:52,160
spiritual courage.
It's not always easy to leave

159
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:57,360
The Cave.
It's a common thought that we

160
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,200
explore on on the Urantia book,
and I wanted to share it with

161
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:04,280
you today.
All right, so as you're watching

162
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:08,920
the political stuff going on,
think of this from the Urantia

163
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,600
book, the Angels of Nation life.
These are the angels of the

164
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,000
trumpets, directors of the
political performances of

165
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:20,440
Urantia National life.
The group now functioning in the

166
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:25,800
over control of international
relations is the 4th 4th core to

167
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,320
serve on the planet.
It is particularly through the

168
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:33,120
ministry of this seraphic
division that quote the most

169
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,000
highs rule in the kingdoms of
men.

170
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:39,840
So there is that seraphic
influence.

171
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,240
How how do you say Jim?
What do you mean?

172
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:46,200
What are they doing inculcating
trust in their hearts?

173
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:51,040
Think about the people that are
behind the scenes working to try

174
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:55,920
to bring about a coalition
because they they see that yes,

175
00:11:56,280 --> 00:12:01,040
peace is very prosperous.
Ask the leaders of Katra if

176
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,400
peace is prosperous.
Ask the people of Saudi Arabia.

177
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:10,280
Ask the people that are sitting
in the stands of the World Cup.

178
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,880

184
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,200
If you can't take a little
bloody nose, maybe you ought to

185
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,080
go back home and crawl under
your bed.

186
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:40,320
It's not safe out here.
It's wondrous with treasures to

187
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,280
satiate desires both subtle and
gross.

188
00:12:44,560 --> 00:12:46,040
But it's not for the two men.
