[T/R Note: Algimantas: My dears, today while communing with the Father I asked a question about the heart and mind which are often used in opposition while talking about man's spiritual strivings. Here is my transcript:]

Algimantas: My beloved Father, we often refer to our mind and our heart when we speak about our spiritual development. Quite often the statements of those who promote one’s heart in one’s spiritual development are being misunderstood as if they were promoting heart at the expense of one’s mind. But nevertheless, the feelings, one’s love is being felt by our mind and we keep telling that this feeling is out of our heart. Thus how should we combine the two in explaining one’s mind and heart function in one’s spiritual growth?

Thought Adjuster [Father]: My beloved son, mind is such a structure that keeps the personality in a conscious operation and relationship with the environment. And as you well know the environment is My manifestation in different aspects.

Thus to know how to operate in any environment which is permanently changing you need your sober mind, deep analyzing mind, and deep thinking mind. But your living relationship with My thru My fragment within you is being established and deepened thru your mind that feels and experiences not the environment but inner vibrations that are being permanently sent over to your mind by the Thought Adjuster. And since these vibrations cannot be conceived, perceived to a measure as the environment is being perceived, since these vibrations are too subtle to be compared with the environment, thus people tend to liken them to the feelings, and tender feelings, for any of the objects of the surrounding environment. And they began to oppose this sensation to the perception of one’s mind and started calling this phenomenon as the feeling of one’s heart. But as you well know if one loses a normal functioning of one’s mind one stops feeling a normal feeling of love apart the one being transmitted to one’s brain by the Adjutant Mind Spirit and on the level of the animal reflex.

Even though the deepest love is being perceived and experienced by one’s mind people tend to elevate this feeling to a higher level, in opposition to any relation to an object of the environment. Thus you must know and see that mind is necessary but the operation of one’s brain consists of two different sections - one is meant for the accumulation and storage of the knowledge and the other part is meant for feeling these subtle vibrations of My love within each of you.

But people are not, yet, ready for this type of analysis of their mind operation. And it is much easier for them once this same operation of man’s mind is divided into two different phases ? one phase of the pure and business-like mind and the other, full of feelings and love heart.

Algimantas: My beloved Father, what is it love, is it some transformation of the chemical structure of one?s brain or is it something else? How can we experience the phenomenon of love?

Thought Adjuster: My beloved son, you would not be able to experience any love without My assistance, for humans thru the Thought Adjuster and for animals thru the Adjutant Mind Spirits that are doing their best to implant this love energy into the creature brains.

And once you are opened to these implanted love vibrations, because of different reasons: you have seen a wonderful landscape, you have listened to a wonderful concert, you have met a nice person, you have purchased a desired pet or because many other reasons might have stimulated you from without to open your mind, or as you say your heart, to My vibrations. And instantaneously you make these vibrations, already present within you, resonate with your live feeling of a pleasant sensation. And this pleasant sensation stimulates to the development of different hormones in your body. This reaction is being felt all over your body. And depending upon one’s spiritual development of one’s mind the incentives for these pleasant experiences greatly differ.

And I am always calling all of you to open up yourselves to My fragment within and then, only then, shall you experience a permanent bliss which is such a powerful incentive to every sincere soul that he does not want any other sensations but this one. Even though one is passing thru different experiences but one is receiving this same blissful satisfaction of one’s soul.

And even in this case it is your mind that is experiencing this very bliss. But your soul, your personal future self in the morontia form is being grown out of these experiences. And the bitter the environment for one’s mind the sweeter is the fruit for one’s soul to carry out  My will.

Algimantas: My beloved Father, does it mean that we must necessarily go thru the bitter environment to grow our own soul?

Thought Adjuster: My beloved son, the word bitter is used for the purpose that you mind must understand that the environment must not always be peaceful and encouraging for you mind to act. But when your mind submits its own human ego to My leading from within these same frightening your mind conditions do not produce the same frightening effect upon your growing divine self-soul. You simply look upon them as a natural environment to extend your hand of assistance to anyone in need, as a natural reaction to the environment, since your soul-mind sees beyond the vision of your pure mind in this very situation. And what your pure mind might look upon as a threatening environment to your own self your soul takes it as a new challenge, and very naturally at that.

That is why Jesus kept repeating to his disciples that they would be born of the spirit for this birth gives one’s soul freedom for action and its manifestation with My love as a driving power from within. And you do well know that I never take anyone to the place that I might destroy one. On the contrary, even if one finds oneself in such an environment that one's mind refuses to act I do provide an additional driving impetus from within that one must do one's best to survive under the circumstances. And even though the environment might lay the upper hand on one’s material existence I do assure you that it is not the end of you.

Discover Me within each of you. Even those who do keep contact with Me and receive messages from Me are not guaranteed they shall grow spiritually if they do not follow My teachings and My leading from within in their daily situations. Being born of the spirit does not guarantee you that you do not need to do anything else for your growth but merely enjoy My company. Even though it is of paramount importance for you before you are born of the spirit but once you are born, again, of the spirit this time, you must grow by living every day the way Jesus lived, while leading your own unique life. By this you shall do My will in everyday situations. And while feeling Me within you shall become more resolute to act, you shall reevaluate your own actions, you shall start shining with My light and love to every one on your path. And this shall be just a natural expression of My love thru your activity in any field of your life. And this activity is already tinged with your soul’s, or as you say, heart’s vibrations that you are permanently receiving from Me thru your Thought Adjuster.

And even though you are becoming more and more of the morontia type of your soul-identity you are employing your mind all the same. But this mind is becoming more and more merged with that of Jesus, with that of Mother Spirit of the Universe, with that of your Thought Adjuster for you begin to feel that you are ONE. And this oneness helps your soul-mind understand that there are no difficult environment at all since with Me, feeling this same Oneness in spirit, everything is possible. But now you look upon this statement not as a theoretical one, but your soul-mind does believe it and take it as the most real of all the most real statements. And you begin to act and speak out to others that with Me everything is possible for you begin to experience this very truth.

But this experience is also perceived by your mind, even by your own human ego that has been adamantly resisting this type of approach to the hard environment but now begins to give in for even it has received that convincing evidence.

And this brings a total victory of your soul-mind-heart-divine-ego over your human-ego-mind-intellect. Your mind is being expanded not only by a much deeper knowledge but also by the experience of My love that your mind-soul is feeling and experiencing to share it with others.

That is why while speaking about one’s mind and heart you must bear in mind that mind is crucial to the personality development and on your plane you have a new and future particle from me that must be born of the spirit ? your soul. And once it is born already on the conscious level of its action then your human mind begins to gradually submit itself to that newly born mind, to the mind of your future self.

Algimantas: My beloved Father, thank you for this teaching. That was wonderful. Now I do understand better as to how we might change our mind by that of Jesus. I love you, Father!

Peace be upon you.

With brotherly love, Algimantas
