The Story of Early Mankind
From Paper 62, a brief recital of the story of early mankind and how we came to be, according to those who were there.
1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,560
You know what I'm going to do in
this edition of the Rancho Radio
2
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:05,960
Podtaska?
I'm going to talk about the the
3
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:09,000
how we got here.
You are going to be blown away
4
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:13,240
when you read the story from a
life carrier son, as to the
5
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,640
steps that it took and the
adventure that finally
6
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,200
culminated in the appearance of
man himself.
7
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,280
And it was all by design.
And you're going to love this
8
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,280
story.
I guarantee you will love this
9
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:25,680
story.
I'm going to start telling more
10
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:29,240
stories from the Urantia Book
because the Urantia Book is
11
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,640
chock full of stories that
Blaine, how we got here.
12
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,160
And it's unbelievable.
So hang on, we're going to go
13
00:00:36,160 --> 00:00:39,960
back in time a million years
ago, what life was like for
14
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:43,040
mammals on planet Earth over a
million years ago.
15
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:44,200
You'll love it.
Be right back.
16
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,640
It's a great read.
It really is a great read.
17
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,560
If you look into the middle
section of the Arrancha book and
18
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:08,080
you find the papers on just
before what happened or what was
19
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:12,560
going on on planet Earth and for
7080 million years, they're
20
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,960
trying to get the life carriers
are trying to develop and move
21
00:01:15,960 --> 00:01:19,360
evolution along in a different
direction and get it so it can
22
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,760
produce intelligent human beings
with sole potential.
23
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:29,440
And in paper 62, we learn about
the preceding ancestral origins
24
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,600
of the human race.
Now, mind you, this is not what
25
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,360
they teach in school.
This isn't what today's
26
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,200
scientists, today's scientists
think.
27
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,520
There's a missing link.
And today's science believes
28
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:44,200
that evolution is causational
without purpose.
29
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:50,000
It's the Darwin concept of
survival of the fittest.
30
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,040
That's what led to the the
appearance of man.
31
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,440
But the Urantia Book has a
different spin on it, and it
32
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,520
goes into a lot of details about
the work and the effort in the
33
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,040
time that it took.
So let's review from paper 62
34
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:09,560
the story of the appearance of
the ancestors of man and then
35
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:14,920
the appearance of man himself so
early in the career of dawn
36
00:02:14,920 --> 00:02:17,680
mammals.
In the treetop abodes of a
37
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:22,800
superior pair of these agile
creatures, twins were born 1
38
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,160
male and one female.
Compared with our ancestors,
39
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,800
they really were handsome little
creatures.
40
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:30,800
They had little hair on their
bodies.
41
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:34,360
But this was no disability.
As they lived in a warm and
42
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,920
equitable climate.
These children grew to be a
43
00:02:36,920 --> 00:02:38,680
little more than four feet in
height.
44
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,720
They were in every way larger
than their parents, having
45
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:46,600
longer legs and shorter arms.
They had almost perfect
46
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:51,160
disposable thumbs, just about as
well adapted for diversified
47
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,920
work as the present human thumb.
They walked upright, having feet
48
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,560
almost as well suited for
walking as those of the later
49
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:04,280
human races.
From paper 62, paragraph three.
50
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:08,000
Their brains were inferior to
and smaller than those of human
51
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:12,520
beings, but very superior to and
comparatively much larger than
52
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,240
those of their ancestors.
The twins early displayed
53
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:21,080
superior intelligence and were
soon recognized as the heads of
54
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:25,400
the whole tribe of Dawn mammals,
really instituting A primitive
55
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:29,800
form of social organization and
a crude economic division of
56
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:34,480
Labor, this brother and sister
made it and soon enjoyed the
57
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:39,600
Society of 21 children much like
themselves, all more than 4 feet
58
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,960
tall and in every way superior
to the ancestral species.
59
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:48,200
This new group formed the
nucleus of the mid mammals.
60
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:53,360
When the numbers of this new and
superior group grew, Great War,
61
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,320
relentless war broke out and
when the terrible struggle was
62
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:02,280
over not a single individual of
the pre existent and ancestral
63
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,640
race of dawn mammals remained
alive.
64
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,800
The less numerous but more
powerful and intelligent
65
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,920
offshoot of the species had
survived at the expense of their
66
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:19,200
ancestors, and now for almost
15,000 years, 600 generations,
67
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,760
this creature, the mid mammal,
became the terror of this part
68
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,720
of the world.
All of the great and vicious
69
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,080
animals the former times had
perished.
70
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,920
The large beasts native to these
regions were not carnivorous,
71
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,240
and the larger species of the
cat family, lions and tigers,
72
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:41,200
had not yet invaded this
peculiarly sheltered nook of the
73
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,640
Earth's surface.
Therefore did these mid mammals
74
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,160
wax, valiant and subdue the
whole of their corner of
75
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,720
creation.
Compared with the ancestral
76
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,400
species, the mid mammals were an
improvement in every way.
77
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,920
Even their potential life span
was longer, being about 25
78
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,120
years.
A number of rudimentary human
79
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,400
traits appeared in this new
species.
80
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,480
In addition to the innate
propensities exhibited by their
81
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:11,520
ancestors, these mid mammals
were capable of showing disgust
82
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:16,320
in certain repulsive situations.
They further possessed a well
83
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,560
defined hoarding instinct.
They would hide food for
84
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,440
subsequent use and were greatly
given to the collection of
85
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,960
stones suitable for defensive
and offensive ammunition.
86
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,160
As time passed, the natural
increase in numbers eventually
87
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:35,280
resulted in serious food
competition and sex rivalry, all
88
00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:38,920
of which culminated in a series
of internis and battles that
89
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,200
nearly destroyed the entire
species.
90
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:46,280
These struggles continued until
only one group of less than 100
91
00:05:46,280 --> 00:05:51,000
individuals was left alive.
But peace once more prevailed in
92
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:55,040
this lone surviving tribe, built
anew its treetop bedrooms and
93
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:59,240
once again resumed a normal and
semi peaceful existence Soon
94
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:00,680
after the completion of their
home.
95
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:05,040
This couple, veterans of so many
struggles, found themselves the
96
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,200
proud parents of twins, the most
interesting and important
97
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,160
animals ever to have been born
into the world up to that time
98
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,600
for they were the first of the
new species of primates,
99
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:19,360
constituting the next vital step
in pre human evolution.
100
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,040
Now we're talking about a time
period of about 1.3 million
101
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,920
years to about 1,000,000 years.
You had the dawn mammals, the
102
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:31,960
direct offspring of the lemur.
Like mammals, dawn mammals led
103
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:36,760
to the appearance of the mid
mammals and a particular parent
104
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:40,960
of the mid mammals sort of took
over became the tribal leaders
105
00:06:41,280 --> 00:06:45,960
in this area of of the
Mesopotamian peninsula, which as
106
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,840
they say was jetted out to the
Indian Sea.
107
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,640
And they took over this corner
of creation and they started to
108
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,280
grow.
And then there was a huge battle
109
00:06:55,280 --> 00:06:59,920
among members of this mid mammal
family until there was only 100
110
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,280
left and out of this 100 that
survived that were intelligent
111
00:07:04,280 --> 00:07:11,280
enough to survive, they spawned
a new species, one couple, the
112
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,040
primates.
And that's where the story picks
113
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:15,920
up.
Soon after the completion of
114
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,120
their home, this couple,
veterans of so many struggles,
115
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,920
found themselves the proud
parents of twins, the most
116
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,840
interesting and important
animals ever to have been born
117
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,520
into the world up to that time.
It makes a footnote here that
118
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,400
modern man and simeons did
spring from the same tribe and
119
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,440
species, but not from the same
parents.
120
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,440
Man's ancestors are descended
from the superior strains of the
121
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,640
selected remnant of this mid
mammal tribe.
122
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:47,040
Whereas the modern Simeon,
excepting certain pre existent
123
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:51,240
types of lemurs, Gibbons, apes
and other monkey like creatures
124
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:55,360
are the descendants of the most
inferior couple of this mid
125
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,600
mammal group.
One couple within this mid
126
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:03,120
mammal group had twins and they
were retarded and they spawned
127
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,080
the beginnings of the simian
tribes, while another couple, a
128
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:10,560
more superior couple, gave birth
to the primates, a more
129
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:14,160
progressive species.
So now we talk about the
130
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,760
primates going back to the birth
of the superior twins, 1 male
131
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,640
and one female.
To the two leading members of
132
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,800
the mid mammal tribes, these
animals were of an unusual
133
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,040
order.
They had still less hair on
134
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,480
their bodies than their parents
and when very young insisted on
135
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,600
walking upright.
Their ancestors had always
136
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,559
learned to walk in their hind
legs, but these primate twins
137
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:41,520
stood erect from the beginning.
They attained a hide of over 5
138
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:45,120
feet and their heads grew larger
in comparison with others among
139
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,000
the tribes.
While early learning to
140
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,600
communicate with each other by
means of signs and sounds, they
141
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,240
were never able to make their
people understand these new
142
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,320
symbols.
The primates were more human and
143
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:02,320
less animal than their mid
mammal predecessors.
144
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,600
The skeletal proportions of this
new species were very similar to
145
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,880
those of the primitive human
races.
146
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,880
The human type of hand and foot
had fully developed, and these
147
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,440
creatures could walk and even
run, as well as any of their
148
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:21,280
later day human descendants.
They largely abandoned tree
149
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,520
life, though continuing to
resort to the tree tops as a
150
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,200
safety measure at night, for
like their earlier ancestors,
151
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,320
they were greatly subjected to
fear.
152
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,800
The increased use of their hands
did much to develop inherent
153
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,520
brainpower, but yet they did not
possess minds that could really
154
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:42,560
be called humans.
And now, as we read in Paper 62,
155
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:47,800
Section 4, paragraph 6, and now,
after almost 900 generations of
156
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:52,160
development, covering about
21,000 years from the origin of
157
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,480
the dawn mammals, the primates
suddenly gave birth to two
158
00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,600
remarkable creatures, the first
true human beings.
159
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,520
Thus it was that the dawn
mammals springing from the North
160
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:10,240
American lemur type gave origin
to the mid mammals, and these
161
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:14,840
mid mammals in turn produced the
superior primates who became the
162
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,800
immediate ancestors of the
primitive human race.
163
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,440
The primate's tribe were the
last vital link in the evolution
164
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,640
of man.
But in less than 5000 years not
165
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:30,160
a single individual of these
extraordinary tribes was left.
166
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,880
And so now the first human
beings were being told about the
167
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,480
very first human beings.
Listen to the way the life
168
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:43,400
carrier is described from the
year AD 1934 back to the birth.
169
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:47,880
By the way, 1934, the year this
book was written back to the
170
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,480
first two human beings.
It's just 993,419 years.
171
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,720
I wonder how that would would
fly in in in science
172
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,080
anthropology.
So the human race has been in
173
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:07,080
existence dating back from 1934,
just under 993,500 years.
174
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,880
These first two human beings and
their descendants reached full
175
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:13,960
maturity at 12 years of age and
possessed a potential life span
176
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:18,400
of about 75 years.
Many new emotions early appeared
177
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,760
in these human twins.
They experienced admiration for
178
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,360
both objects and other beings
and exhibited considerable
179
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,920
vanity.
But the most remarkable advance
180
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:32,120
in emotional development was the
sudden appearance of a new group
181
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:36,280
of really human feelings, the
Worshipful group embracing awe,
182
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,560
reverence, humility, and even a
primitive form of gratitude.
183
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,920
Fear, joined with ignorance of
natural phenomena, is about to
184
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,120
give birth to primitive
religion.
185
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,320
Not only were such human
feelings manifested in these
186
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:55,360
primitive humans, but many more
highly evolved sentiments were
187
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,760
also present in rudimentary
form.
188
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:03,080
They were mildly cognizant of
pity, shame and reproach, and
189
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:08,560
were acutely conscious of love,
hate and revenge, being also
190
00:12:08,560 --> 00:12:11,560
susceptible to market feelings
of jealousy.
191
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:17,440
From Papers 62, Section 5,
paragraph 7, very early they
192
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,960
learned to engage in verbal
communication.
193
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:24,160
By the age of 10, they had
worked out an improved sign and
194
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:28,880
word language of almost 100
ideas, and had greatly improved
195
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,600
and expanded the crude
commutative techniques of their
196
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,800
ancestors.
But try as hard as they might,
197
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,720
they were not able to teach but
just a few words and new signs
198
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,640
and symbols for their parents.
When about nine years of age,
199
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:47,000
they journeyed off down the
river one bright day and held a
200
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,120
momentous conference.
Every celestial intelligence
201
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,080
stationed on your ranch,
including myself, the author
202
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:57,440
writes, was present as an
observer of the transactions of
203
00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,160
this noontide tryst on this
eventful day.
204
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:04,400
They arrived at an understanding
to live with and for each other,
205
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:08,040
and this was the first of a
series of such agreements which
206
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,240
finally culminated in the
decision to flee from their
207
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:16,280
inferior animal associates and
to journey northward, little
208
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,480
knowing that they were thus to
found the human race.
209
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,600
While we were all greatly
concerned about what these two
210
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:27,120
little savages were planning, we
were powerless to control the
211
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,480
workings of their minds.
We did not, could not
212
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:34,600
arbitrarily influence their
decisions, but within the
213
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,920
permissible limits of planetary
function we, the life carriers,
214
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:41,520
together with our associates,
all conspire to lead the human
215
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:46,520
twins northward, and far from
their hairy and partially tree
216
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:50,480
dwelling people.
And so, by reason of their own
217
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:55,000
intelligent choice, the the
twins did migrate, and because
218
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:59,000
of our supervision, they
migrated northward to a secluded
219
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,760
region where they escaped the
possibility of biologic
220
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:07,280
degradation through admixture
with their inferior relatives of
221
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,400
the primate tribes.
Shortly before their departure
222
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,560
from the home forest, they lost
their mother in a Gibbon raid.
223
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,600
While she did not possess their
intelligence, she did have a
224
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:22,200
worthy mammalian affection of a
high order for her offspring,
225
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,480
and she fearlessly gave her life
in the attempt to save the
226
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,080
wonderful pair.
Nor was her sacrifice in vain,
227
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,680
for she held off the enemy until
the father arrived with
228
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,320
reinforcements and put the
invaders to route.
229
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:40,040
Soon after, this young couple
forsook their associates to
230
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:43,160
found the human race.
Their primate father became
231
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,440
disconsolate.
He was heartbroken.
232
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:50,120
He refused to eat, even when
food was brought to him by his
233
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,800
other children.
Life did not seem worth living
234
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:57,200
among his ordinary fellows, So
he wandered off into the forest,
235
00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,760
was set upon by hostile Gibbons,
and beaten to death.
236
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:05,800
So the parents of the first two
humans met with an untimely
237
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,000
death because they had enough
feelings and they were
238
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,680
despondent.
That's that's an interesting
239
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,040
story, isn't it?
And we'll conclude with this,
240
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,360
because what does this all mean?
What's the end game here?
241
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,800
What were the end games of all
the planning millions and
242
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,600
millions, 10s of millions of
years of planning this eventful
243
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,800
day when humans would appear
with the ability to worship.
244
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,440
This is what the author says.
We, the life carriers on
245
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,040
Urantia, had passed through the
long vigil of watchful waiting
246
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:39,120
since the day we first planted
the life plasm in the planetary
247
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,400
waters.
And naturally, the appearance of
248
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,000
the first really intelligent and
volitional beings brought us,
249
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,520
brought to us great joy and
supreme satisfaction.
250
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,600
We had been watching the twins
developmentally through our
251
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:55,400
observation of the functioning
of these seven adjutant mind
252
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,800
spirits assigned to your ranch
at the time of our arrival on
253
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:03,200
the planet.
Imagine our joy one day when the
254
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:07,720
twins about 10 years old, when
the spirit of worship made its
255
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,600
first contact with the mind of
the female twin, and shortly
256
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:15,560
thereafter with the male.
We knew that something closely
257
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,840
akin to human mind was
approaching culmination.
258
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,360
And when about a year later,
they finally resolved as a
259
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:27,000
result of meditative thought and
purposeful decision to flee from
260
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,960
home and journey N then did the
spirit of wisdom begin to
261
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:35,280
function on your rancher, and in
these two now recognized human
262
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:39,720
minds.
So it wasn't their skeleton, it
263
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,360
wasn't their ability to use
Flint.
264
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,880
It was the development of their
mind to work with the spirit
265
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,040
influences.
It was the ability and the
266
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:53,720
evolution of mind that
determined the first appearance
267
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,600
of humanity.
And what are these spirit
268
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,680
influences?
Well, they start out with spirit
269
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,120
of intuition.
Most animals have a spirit of
270
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,480
intuition which gives them that
instinct to self preservation,
271
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,480
understanding, cooperation.
You see, you ever see the birds
272
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:11,000
when they fly and that pattern.
Sometimes they follow the
273
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,280
leader, or you see a bunch of
birds where they follow each
274
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,359
other.
That means that their minds are
275
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,800
capable on some level of
cooperation.
276
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,000
Then comes knowledge, learning
to look before you leap.
277
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,359
And then there's counsel.
And then finally, the ability to
278
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,480
worship.
And consequently, because of the
279
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,360
ability to worship is the
reception of wisdom.
280
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:35,600
And they say that for these two
animals, the wisdom part was in
281
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:39,040
their decision, one, to move
northward and get out of the
282
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,600
jungle, and two, to dedicate
their lives to one another.
283
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,680
That was true wisdom and
operation, and it was that
284
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:50,120
demarcation that substantiated
the appearance of the first
285
00:17:50,120 --> 00:17:51,960
human mind.
And that's what they're saying
286
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,720
here, because the mind is the
portal to sole potential.
287
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,760
You know, The Urantia Book is
just full of so many wonderful
288
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,600
stories, and I really feel
compelled to share them with
289
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,480
you.
Even if you're a seasoned reader
290
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,600
and you've been studying the
papers forever, it's it's nice
291
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,240
to look back and remember some
of the great stories that teach
292
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,560
us so much.
Listen, if you've got a
293
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,920
particular story you'd you'd
like us to talk about or some
294
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:20,040
section of the Urancha book you
can do, so just e-mail me

00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,040
spirituality?
Check out the Urancha Radio
300
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:35,880
Podcast.

00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:37,000
stopping by and God bless.
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,560
You know what I'm going to do in
this edition of the Rancho Radio
2
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:05,960
Podtaska?
I'm going to talk about the the
3
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:09,000
how we got here.
You are going to be blown away
4
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:13,240
when you read the story from a
life carrier son, as to the
5
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,640
steps that it took and the
adventure that finally
6
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,200
culminated in the appearance of
man himself.
7
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,280
And it was all by design.
And you're going to love this
8
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,280
story.
I guarantee you will love this
9
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:25,680
story.
I'm going to start telling more
10
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:29,240
stories from the Urantia Book
because the Urantia Book is
11
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,640
chock full of stories that
Blaine, how we got here.
12
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,160
And it's unbelievable.
So hang on, we're going to go
13
00:00:36,160 --> 00:00:39,960
back in time a million years
ago, what life was like for
14
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:43,040
mammals on planet Earth over a
million years ago.
15
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:44,200
You'll love it.
Be right back.
16
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,640
It's a great read.
It really is a great read.
17
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,560
If you look into the middle
section of the Arrancha book and
18
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:08,080
you find the papers on just
before what happened or what was
19
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:12,560
going on on planet Earth and for
7080 million years, they're
20
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,960
trying to get the life carriers
are trying to develop and move
21
00:01:15,960 --> 00:01:19,360
evolution along in a different
direction and get it so it can
22
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,760
produce intelligent human beings
with sole potential.
23
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:29,440
And in paper 62, we learn about
the preceding ancestral origins
24
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,600
of the human race.
Now, mind you, this is not what
25
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,360
they teach in school.
This isn't what today's
26
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,200
scientists, today's scientists
think.
27
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,520
There's a missing link.
And today's science believes
28
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:44,200
that evolution is causational
without purpose.
29
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:50,000
It's the Darwin concept of
survival of the fittest.
30
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,040
That's what led to the the
appearance of man.
31
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,440
But the Urantia Book has a
different spin on it, and it
32
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,520
goes into a lot of details about
the work and the effort in the
33
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,040
time that it took.
So let's review from paper 62
34
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:09,560
the story of the appearance of
the ancestors of man and then
35
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:14,920
the appearance of man himself so
early in the career of dawn
36
00:02:14,920 --> 00:02:17,680
mammals.
In the treetop abodes of a
37
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:22,800
superior pair of these agile
creatures, twins were born 1
38
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,160
male and one female.
Compared with our ancestors,
39
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,800
they really were handsome little
creatures.
40
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:30,800
They had little hair on their
bodies.
41
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:34,360
But this was no disability.
As they lived in a warm and
42
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,920
equitable climate.
These children grew to be a
43
00:02:36,920 --> 00:02:38,680
little more than four feet in
height.
44
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,720
They were in every way larger
than their parents, having
45
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:46,600
longer legs and shorter arms.
They had almost perfect
46
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:51,160
disposable thumbs, just about as
well adapted for diversified
47
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,920
work as the present human thumb.
They walked upright, having feet
48
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,560
almost as well suited for
walking as those of the later
49
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:04,280
human races.
From paper 62, paragraph three.
50
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:08,000
Their brains were inferior to
and smaller than those of human
51
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:12,520
beings, but very superior to and
comparatively much larger than
52
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,240
those of their ancestors.
The twins early displayed
53
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:21,080
superior intelligence and were
soon recognized as the heads of
54
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:25,400
the whole tribe of Dawn mammals,
really instituting A primitive
55
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:29,800
form of social organization and
a crude economic division of
56
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:34,480
Labor, this brother and sister
made it and soon enjoyed the
57
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:39,600
Society of 21 children much like
themselves, all more than 4 feet
58
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,960
tall and in every way superior
to the ancestral species.
59
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:48,200
This new group formed the
nucleus of the mid mammals.
60
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:53,360
When the numbers of this new and
superior group grew, Great War,
61
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,320
relentless war broke out and
when the terrible struggle was
62
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:02,280
over not a single individual of
the pre existent and ancestral
63
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,640
race of dawn mammals remained
alive.
64
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,800
The less numerous but more
powerful and intelligent
65
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,920
offshoot of the species had
survived at the expense of their
66
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:19,200
ancestors, and now for almost
15,000 years, 600 generations,
67
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,760
this creature, the mid mammal,
became the terror of this part
68
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,720
of the world.
All of the great and vicious
69
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,080
animals the former times had
perished.
70
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,920
The large beasts native to these
regions were not carnivorous,
71
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,240
and the larger species of the
cat family, lions and tigers,
72
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:41,200
had not yet invaded this
peculiarly sheltered nook of the
73
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,640
Earth's surface.
Therefore did these mid mammals
74
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,160
wax, valiant and subdue the
whole of their corner of
75
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,720
creation.
Compared with the ancestral
76
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,400
species, the mid mammals were an
improvement in every way.
77
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,920
Even their potential life span
was longer, being about 25
78
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,120
years.
A number of rudimentary human
79
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,400
traits appeared in this new
species.
80
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,480
In addition to the innate
propensities exhibited by their
81
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:11,520
ancestors, these mid mammals
were capable of showing disgust
82
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:16,320
in certain repulsive situations.
They further possessed a well
83
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,560
defined hoarding instinct.
They would hide food for
84
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,440
subsequent use and were greatly
given to the collection of
85
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,960
stones suitable for defensive
and offensive ammunition.
86
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,160
As time passed, the natural
increase in numbers eventually
87
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:35,280
resulted in serious food
competition and sex rivalry, all
88
00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:38,920
of which culminated in a series
of internis and battles that
89
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,200
nearly destroyed the entire
species.
90
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:46,280
These struggles continued until
only one group of less than 100
91
00:05:46,280 --> 00:05:51,000
individuals was left alive.
But peace once more prevailed in
92
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:55,040
this lone surviving tribe, built
anew its treetop bedrooms and
93
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:59,240
once again resumed a normal and
semi peaceful existence Soon
94
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:00,680
after the completion of their
home.
95
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:05,040
This couple, veterans of so many
struggles, found themselves the
96
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,200
proud parents of twins, the most
interesting and important
97
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,160
animals ever to have been born
into the world up to that time
98
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,600
for they were the first of the
new species of primates,
99
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:19,360
constituting the next vital step
in pre human evolution.
100
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,040
Now we're talking about a time
period of about 1.3 million
101
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,920
years to about 1,000,000 years.
You had the dawn mammals, the
102
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:31,960
direct offspring of the lemur.
Like mammals, dawn mammals led
103
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:36,760
to the appearance of the mid
mammals and a particular parent
104
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:40,960
of the mid mammals sort of took
over became the tribal leaders
105
00:06:41,280 --> 00:06:45,960
in this area of of the
Mesopotamian peninsula, which as
106
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,840
they say was jetted out to the
Indian Sea.
107
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,640
And they took over this corner
of creation and they started to
108
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,280
grow.
And then there was a huge battle
109
00:06:55,280 --> 00:06:59,920
among members of this mid mammal
family until there was only 100
110
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,280
left and out of this 100 that
survived that were intelligent
111
00:07:04,280 --> 00:07:11,280
enough to survive, they spawned
a new species, one couple, the
112
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,040
primates.
And that's where the story picks
113
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:15,920
up.
Soon after the completion of
114
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,120
their home, this couple,
veterans of so many struggles,
115
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,920
found themselves the proud
parents of twins, the most
116
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,840
interesting and important
animals ever to have been born
117
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,520
into the world up to that time.
It makes a footnote here that
118
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,400
modern man and simeons did
spring from the same tribe and
119
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,440
species, but not from the same
parents.
120
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,440
Man's ancestors are descended
from the superior strains of the
121
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,640
selected remnant of this mid
mammal tribe.
122
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:47,040
Whereas the modern Simeon,
excepting certain pre existent
123
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:51,240
types of lemurs, Gibbons, apes
and other monkey like creatures
124
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:55,360
are the descendants of the most
inferior couple of this mid
125
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,600
mammal group.
One couple within this mid
126
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:03,120
mammal group had twins and they
were retarded and they spawned
127
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,080
the beginnings of the simian
tribes, while another couple, a
128
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:10,560
more superior couple, gave birth
to the primates, a more
129
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:14,160
progressive species.
So now we talk about the
130
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,760
primates going back to the birth
of the superior twins, 1 male
131
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,640
and one female.
To the two leading members of
132
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,800
the mid mammal tribes, these
animals were of an unusual
133
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,040
order.
They had still less hair on
134
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,480
their bodies than their parents
and when very young insisted on
135
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,600
walking upright.
Their ancestors had always
136
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,559
learned to walk in their hind
legs, but these primate twins
137
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:41,520
stood erect from the beginning.
They attained a hide of over 5
138
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:45,120
feet and their heads grew larger
in comparison with others among
139
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,000
the tribes.
While early learning to
140
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,600
communicate with each other by
means of signs and sounds, they
141
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,240
were never able to make their
people understand these new
142
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,320
symbols.
The primates were more human and
143
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:02,320
less animal than their mid
mammal predecessors.
144
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,600
The skeletal proportions of this
new species were very similar to
145
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,880
those of the primitive human
races.
146
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,880
The human type of hand and foot
had fully developed, and these
147
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,440
creatures could walk and even
run, as well as any of their
148
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:21,280
later day human descendants.
They largely abandoned tree
149
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,520
life, though continuing to
resort to the tree tops as a
150
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,200
safety measure at night, for
like their earlier ancestors,
151
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,320
they were greatly subjected to
fear.
152
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,800
The increased use of their hands
did much to develop inherent
153
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,520
brainpower, but yet they did not
possess minds that could really
154
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:42,560
be called humans.
And now, as we read in Paper 62,
155
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:47,800
Section 4, paragraph 6, and now,
after almost 900 generations of
156
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:52,160
development, covering about
21,000 years from the origin of
157
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,480
the dawn mammals, the primates
suddenly gave birth to two
158
00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,600
remarkable creatures, the first
true human beings.
159
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,520
Thus it was that the dawn
mammals springing from the North
160
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:10,240
American lemur type gave origin
to the mid mammals, and these
161
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:14,840
mid mammals in turn produced the
superior primates who became the
162
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,800
immediate ancestors of the
primitive human race.
163
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,440
The primate's tribe were the
last vital link in the evolution
164
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,640
of man.
But in less than 5000 years not
165
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:30,160
a single individual of these
extraordinary tribes was left.
166
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,880
And so now the first human
beings were being told about the
167
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,480
very first human beings.
Listen to the way the life
168
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:43,400
carrier is described from the
year AD 1934 back to the birth.
169
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:47,880
By the way, 1934, the year this
book was written back to the
170
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,480
first two human beings.
It's just 993,419 years.
171
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,720
I wonder how that would would
fly in in in science
172
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,080
anthropology.
So the human race has been in
173
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:07,080
existence dating back from 1934,
just under 993,500 years.
174
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,880
These first two human beings and
their descendants reached full
175
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:13,960
maturity at 12 years of age and
possessed a potential life span
176
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:18,400
of about 75 years.
Many new emotions early appeared
177
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,760
in these human twins.
They experienced admiration for
178
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,360
both objects and other beings
and exhibited considerable
179
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,920
vanity.
But the most remarkable advance
180
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:32,120
in emotional development was the
sudden appearance of a new group
181
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:36,280
of really human feelings, the
Worshipful group embracing awe,
182
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,560
reverence, humility, and even a
primitive form of gratitude.
183
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,920
Fear, joined with ignorance of
natural phenomena, is about to
184
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,120
give birth to primitive
religion.
185
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,320
Not only were such human
feelings manifested in these
186
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:55,360
primitive humans, but many more
highly evolved sentiments were
187
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,760
also present in rudimentary
form.
188
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:03,080
They were mildly cognizant of
pity, shame and reproach, and
189
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:08,560
were acutely conscious of love,
hate and revenge, being also
190
00:12:08,560 --> 00:12:11,560
susceptible to market feelings
of jealousy.
191
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:17,440
From Papers 62, Section 5,
paragraph 7, very early they
192
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,960
learned to engage in verbal
communication.
193
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:24,160
By the age of 10, they had
worked out an improved sign and
194
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:28,880
word language of almost 100
ideas, and had greatly improved
195
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,600
and expanded the crude
commutative techniques of their
196
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,800
ancestors.
But try as hard as they might,
197
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,720
they were not able to teach but
just a few words and new signs
198
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,640
and symbols for their parents.
When about nine years of age,
199
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:47,000
they journeyed off down the
river one bright day and held a
200
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,120
momentous conference.
Every celestial intelligence
201
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,080
stationed on your ranch,
including myself, the author
202
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:57,440
writes, was present as an
observer of the transactions of
203
00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,160
this noontide tryst on this
eventful day.
204
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:04,400
They arrived at an understanding
to live with and for each other,
205
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:08,040
and this was the first of a
series of such agreements which
206
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,240
finally culminated in the
decision to flee from their
207
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:16,280
inferior animal associates and
to journey northward, little
208
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,480
knowing that they were thus to
found the human race.
209
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,600
While we were all greatly
concerned about what these two
210
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:27,120
little savages were planning, we
were powerless to control the
211
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,480
workings of their minds.
We did not, could not
212
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:34,600
arbitrarily influence their
decisions, but within the
213
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,920
permissible limits of planetary
function we, the life carriers,
214
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:41,520
together with our associates,
all conspire to lead the human
215
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:46,520
twins northward, and far from
their hairy and partially tree
216
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:50,480
dwelling people.
And so, by reason of their own
217
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:55,000
intelligent choice, the the
twins did migrate, and because
218
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:59,000
of our supervision, they
migrated northward to a secluded
219
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,760
region where they escaped the
possibility of biologic
220
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:07,280
degradation through admixture
with their inferior relatives of
221
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,400
the primate tribes.
Shortly before their departure
222
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,560
from the home forest, they lost
their mother in a Gibbon raid.
223
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,600
While she did not possess their
intelligence, she did have a
224
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:22,200
worthy mammalian affection of a
high order for her offspring,
225
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,480
and she fearlessly gave her life
in the attempt to save the
226
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,080
wonderful pair.
Nor was her sacrifice in vain,
227
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,680
for she held off the enemy until
the father arrived with
228
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,320
reinforcements and put the
invaders to route.
229
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:40,040
Soon after, this young couple
forsook their associates to
230
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:43,160
found the human race.
Their primate father became
231
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,440
disconsolate.
He was heartbroken.
232
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:50,120
He refused to eat, even when
food was brought to him by his
233
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,800
other children.
Life did not seem worth living
234
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:57,200
among his ordinary fellows, So
he wandered off into the forest,
235
00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,760
was set upon by hostile Gibbons,
and beaten to death.
236
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:05,800
So the parents of the first two
humans met with an untimely
237
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,000
death because they had enough
feelings and they were
238
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,680
despondent.
That's that's an interesting
239
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,040
story, isn't it?
And we'll conclude with this,
240
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,360
because what does this all mean?
What's the end game here?
241
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,800
What were the end games of all
the planning millions and
242
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,600
millions, 10s of millions of
years of planning this eventful
243
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,800
day when humans would appear
with the ability to worship.
244
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,440
This is what the author says.
We, the life carriers on
245
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,040
Urantia, had passed through the
long vigil of watchful waiting
246
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:39,120
since the day we first planted
the life plasm in the planetary
247
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,400
waters.
And naturally, the appearance of
248
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,000
the first really intelligent and
volitional beings brought us,
249
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,520
brought to us great joy and
supreme satisfaction.
250
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,600
We had been watching the twins
developmentally through our
251
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:55,400
observation of the functioning
of these seven adjutant mind
252
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,800
spirits assigned to your ranch
at the time of our arrival on
253
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:03,200
the planet.
Imagine our joy one day when the
254
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:07,720
twins about 10 years old, when
the spirit of worship made its
255
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,600
first contact with the mind of
the female twin, and shortly
256
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:15,560
thereafter with the male.
We knew that something closely
257
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,840
akin to human mind was
approaching culmination.
258
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,360
And when about a year later,
they finally resolved as a
259
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:27,000
result of meditative thought and
purposeful decision to flee from
260
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,960
home and journey N then did the
spirit of wisdom begin to
261
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:35,280
function on your rancher, and in
these two now recognized human
262
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:39,720
minds.
So it wasn't their skeleton, it
263
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,360
wasn't their ability to use
Flint.
264
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,880
It was the development of their
mind to work with the spirit
265
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,040
influences.
It was the ability and the
266
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:53,720
evolution of mind that
determined the first appearance
267
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,600
of humanity.
And what are these spirit
268
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,680
influences?
Well, they start out with spirit
269
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,120
of intuition.
Most animals have a spirit of
270
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,480
intuition which gives them that
instinct to self preservation,
271
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,480
understanding, cooperation.
You see, you ever see the birds
272
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:11,000
when they fly and that pattern.
Sometimes they follow the
273
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,280
leader, or you see a bunch of
birds where they follow each
274
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,359
other.
That means that their minds are
275
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,800
capable on some level of
cooperation.
276
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,000
Then comes knowledge, learning
to look before you leap.
277
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,359
And then there's counsel.
And then finally, the ability to
278
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,480
worship.
And consequently, because of the
279
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,360
ability to worship is the
reception of wisdom.
280
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:35,600
And they say that for these two
animals, the wisdom part was in
281
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:39,040
their decision, one, to move
northward and get out of the
282
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,600
jungle, and two, to dedicate
their lives to one another.
283
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,680
That was true wisdom and
operation, and it was that
284
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:50,120
demarcation that substantiated
the appearance of the first
285
00:17:50,120 --> 00:17:51,960
human mind.
And that's what they're saying
286
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,720
here, because the mind is the
portal to sole potential.
287
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,760
You know, The Urantia Book is
just full of so many wonderful
288
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,600
stories, and I really feel
compelled to share them with
289
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,480
you.
Even if you're a seasoned reader
290
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,600
and you've been studying the
papers forever, it's it's nice
291
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,240
to look back and remember some
of the great stories that teach
292
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,560
us so much.
Listen, if you've got a
293
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,920
particular story you'd you'd
