Dominick
All right, welcome to Tuesday's Lightline, everybody. Without launching into the intro today, I'm going to pass that, but just know that for those listening, there are other Lightlines on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, here and Wednesday, all with the same call-in information, and Internet audio, otherwise known as voice over IP. And they're all at 2pm. Eastern time. If you want discussions about Lightlines, or any information in between Lightlines, go to forum.servera.org. And if you want to just keep in touch with Lightline, via transcripts and attendance information, and they're all recorded mostly, you can go to fatherslightline.com. But just as some housekeeping for the callers, the attendees, you can mute your phone on and off anytime pressing 4 * and you can raise your hand pressing 5 *. Time permitting people attending by voice over IP I have to unmute you, there's no way to raise your hand. So I can't see if you've done that.
So, we pray to the Father for clear and clean circuits of communication. And we ask, is there an emcee today? But I don't need to ask further because I've had an emcee in my ear for 24 hours.
Welcome Machiventa Melchizedek
Machiventa Melchizedek
Thank you, Dominick. This is Machiventa Melchizedek. I'd like to welcome everyone to the call, and we have a robust Lightline today. We will start by discussing the Mission structure at a high level, meaning a general level. And we will also discuss the AB testing of working groups. AB testing is something you can look up and search for, but it means comparing one set to another set. In this case, we're going to be talking about a working group with a transmitter and a working group or equivalent without a transmitter. We will end the Lightline with a general kind of housekeeping related to active roles, as active roles r o l e s, you might consider participating in. So, that's our outline. The mission structure, and I've prepared these notes so, understand if you hear anything at Dominick's voice, this transmitter is reading and I am augmenting his reading. It's a different style and not one we use all the time, and do inform everyone we are for the first time in these Lightlines recording video. There is a live stream participation no one has joined and that's okay because we're doing this as a practice run essentially. But it is live, he has dressed for work. So, under the mission structure, these are Magisterial Missions, Michael Missions, any other missions. So, without further ado, the outline is as follows:
Paradise Sons are at the top. These are the macro movers and shakers. These are in general Magisterial Sons in the halls of power and policy. You know a good example of this is, and will be, the Regency, also pronounced Regency. Another Paradise Son at the top is the promised return of Jesus. A mortal who attained Paradise after his Paradise Creator Son’s bestowal on Urantia. Those would be the personnel at the top of the missions.
A middle tier, if you will, are the Melchizedeks. These are at the governance level, the societal and institutional level. You could consider these the policy administrators. Much in the same way we organize a Lightline often. You don't see, for example, Magisterial Son acting as an emcee, but they do participate. At the lower and just as important levels might be and will be Archangels, material Adam and Eve also known as material sons, material daughters. They might be operating and will be operating at the household level, the family level, the community level. They will be actively involved in schooling, and educational institutions. Notice I did not say specifically schools or universities, because we don't want to limit ourselves to just those institutions. But anything related to schooling, and educational function of the maintenance of civilization. Related to schooling and education that permeate down to households, families, and communities. The higher echelons of say universities and specialized studies eventually flow upwards towards the Melchizedek levels of major institutions. So that is a, what we say is a high level mission structure of the personnel from the celestial side, the spirit side, the incarnated side.
We will now move on to the next subject, which is the concept of a working group. And we're comparing in this case, a working group with the transmitter. Now again, a working group can be or will be specialized by a domain, a field, a subject. We gave examples last week, it could be things like disease control, clean energy, community organization, leadership development, those types of subjects. Now, if you took that example of a working group, what's think of anyone doesn't matter. But if you were to compare that to an example of what passes for a non-transmission working group today, that might be something like an app or possibly another code word for a chatbot. For example, the app is really a chatbot. Now, what would be the difference between a working group with a transmitter and a chatbot? The working group will have a code of conduct whereas a chatbot has a legal agreement. Your participation in that working group requires some amount of discipline with best practices participating in the meeting or the event, with a certain level of competence. Your chatbot has a privacy policy, a Terms and Conditions about the information it collects from you, and uses. A working group with the transmitter has covert and overt - that's covert with a C an overt with an O - motivation. You could say the whole thing is a social contract. Whereas the app and chatbot collects your data, sells your data. It is a database of text. It is an artificial intelligence prediction model that is quite effective with the database it uses. Compare this to the working group that utilizes the very universal aspect of creativity. It has an epigenetic effect on you, and the group, and spirit. We talked about creativity and epigenetics In very recent Lightlines.
The chatbot and application are linguistic traps. For example, you might have heard or expressed at one point in time, if you ever read the fifth epochal revelation that the Urantia Book changed your life. How many times have we read and heard that, or felt that even, or identified with that? We only say this is a linguistic trap. Because linguistically, you are not giving credit in that sentence or statement to what you maybe and are truly expressing, which is Father changed your life. Paradise Trinity, and the existential deities changed your life. Christ Michael changed your life, or Jesus changed your life. The working group as a transmitter is personably knowable. It means you personally try. You don't ask a question to a chatbot and expect personality in return. Now we're starting to flow into the next topic a little bit. We're done with direct comparison, but we also talked in the last Lightline or two the subject of age.
A lot of attendees are, and frankly people eligible to serve in the missions as we've stated, are over the age of 50, but typically of retired age. And what's generally said no matter what for people of that age, regardless of their success, but particularly with people who are quote unquote successful, is that if they could have one thing, name one thing that they would like to have more of, and the answer is time. And this is something you get when you retire that you get time. Now bear with me, we're jumping around a little bit. But I just wanted to get that out of the way.
We want to continue by saying transmitters sustain themselves when they're without concern to status or hierarchy. Yeah, it is human nature and even the success of genetics is due to competition and social need for status and hierarchy when we talk about genetics and DNA, so, how do we resolve ambition, while the revelation advises that ambition be transformed into a social benefit, competition be socialized into a social benefit. The classic definition of a corporation is the public good. Not socialized and autocratic communism, but perhaps socialized on some levels in for example, basic services in social democracies. Which leads us to a paraphrasing of the inter association of the 15 factors related to the maintenance of civilization which we touched on last time. But we will end with a twist on number 15 at the end.
Dominick
1. #1 was geography, essentially natural resources.
2. goods and services, access to goods and services with the payoff of a leisure and innovation effect. Without leisure there is truly no innovation in the culture.
3. science and knowledge. Science and knowledge benefit thought, improvement, and material improvement.
4. is essentially about the modern field of demographics. But also taught touches upon the optimization and frankly social engineering via wise and intelligent leadership of demographic. In this case, it would be demographics of states inter associated at a global level.
5. resource utilization. In the past, there was force, might makes right, and the hint that leadership is generally somehow related to a minority of the population. And the balance is wise, moral, intelligent capabilities, versus mob rule or psychopathic rule.
6. linguistics. Language and its effect on international relations and inter associations of the various populations.
7. mechanization. The distribution of resources and labor, liberation, these relate to several types of freedom that you might, and people desire.
8. home, social leisure, schooling, essentially how to transfer culture and civilization from one generation to the next.
9. national ideals. We are now changing this to national ideals. We said race and nation, but now wish to not ignore but disassociate from the powderkeg of race, and make it synonymous with national ideals, which is truly to say, what is the aim? How are you aiming, literally targeting with your aim and reaching for? What are you striving for? What are you aiming for with the next generation through the home, the church, and the school, for example? And if you can't name a church, or you have an allergic reaction to the church, think about that. We strive to inform you that if you do not have a specific church or denomination of church, or type of church, something often takes its place in the form of a church that you may or may not recognize as such.
10. specialization. This is really handling the disruption of technology and industries, when specialization of the workforce has to adjust to disruption. Essentially you could say this as a way of repurposing the workforce. Essentially when you are displaced, you feel a loss of purpose. Nothing wrong with that, you simply are in the journey of repurposing yourself in society.
11. placement and fallback of trades and skills. This is a natural extension of the last point, but there needs to be placement of people, together with fallback of trades and skills. This could be as simple as carpentry, gardening, and the like. And for those on the forum, Valerie did a transcription and a good example of placement is in that Adam and Eve transcript about schooling, where school administrators are placing students in different avenues and different experiences in the field, to get experience about what I'm just talking about. As opposed to a school administrator policing teachers and doling out punishment or enforcement.
12. conflicts of interest versus cooperation. Not only is this personal, but it extends to international relations. How do you handle conflicts of interest versus cooperation.
13. and this is where your homework comes into effect because we have relabeled this mentally or mental at agility, mentally agile. Or you could say mental agility together with intelligent wisdom. These are qualities and expressions. And the spectrum ranges from and includes all of the following: material, intelligence, morals, social cleverness, which we can identify as hierarchy and status with vastly cosmic insight.
14. society is not fine. There is an evolution to society and it is essential to innovation that we evolve. And lastly,
15. which last week we did, we touched on the transitional maintenance of civilization during transitional breakdowns. And we talked about the Regency. We talked about things at the very top level of the Regency, instituting or advising things such as martial law in extreme emergencies. And we also talked about the Regency ideal of having less extreme emergencies and ideal cooperation with policies.
Machiventa Melchizedek
But what we did not touch on specifically, was the other end of that spectrum, which I address, and this is Machiventa Melchizedek still speaking, that we did not address working groups.
Working groups certainly are capable of buffering and aiding in the transitional breakdown. That concludes the 15. factors. So, with working groups, that's our next topic. And I would like to not necessarily read from notes anymore. This is Machiventa once again speaking, more or less adlib to you. But we would like to get to something if you can assimilate what we've just talked about. There are rules within working groups that you have the potential to take on. That if you're exposed to, with a little bit of confidence and discipline and time, that you are guaranteed to exercise your creativity and have a positive epigenetic effect on yourself and others spirit and your civilization. So, with that we more or less end the official lecture part, and we would like to go into specifics about the types of roles that are possible in a working group.
The backstory is, working groups are a concept that I have introduced for over 10 years. There are a spattering of cases around the globe of them working, but they have yet to reach an organization that would truly affect the preservation and protect the transitional breakdown of civilization. And therefore they are still irrelevant, although they are not just timely anymore but urgently needed. So, here are the following roles.
There are where is an MC moderator. That's one role.
Another role is a transmitter.
Another role, potentially, is what we are temporarily calling the chronicler. Just like the institution and program of the chronicles, Ron talks about. But the chronicler would do something close to and specific to transcription and archiving.
Next, we might be a technical operator, I remind you, this Lightline is operated by telephone, voice over IP, and internet video conferencing, synonymous with Zoom, although this particular case is using the Microsoft equivalent of zoom. So, technical operator might help with those things, but specifically, it makes sense that the technical operator could also function as the meeting timer. In other words, some organization and discipline to the specifics of a working group, event or session. This is not a Lightline and has a different structure, and has a little bit more discipline and organization to it. In that there might be a timer to help move on to the next segment.
Next, there is a curator. We're temporarily calling this the curator, but the curator is the collector of the team effort of research, and resources. You could aggregate these things automatically through things like search and harvesting data, but the curator adds a personal touch, and gives the person an opportunity to utilize what we just talked about, intelligence and wisdom, and judgment. And frankly, these are usually better than automation.
Lastly, there is the member or attendee of the working group. You would think the member or attendee is similar to what we have here on Lightlines and it is not. Because the working group is specific to a domain and field of endeavor, with the aim of integrating into these missions, and helping, not just civilizational breakdown transition, but augmenting and progressing the civilization and culture. So with these projects in mind or field in mind, a member or attendee is specifically interested in implementation, action plans, and action items. That's jargon for some. Simply look the term up. It's not that complicated. It just means implementing where it matters in the field. You can talk all you want, but eventually, people have to do something and it lands in the field, and it's never quite as it drew-up the draw on the planning board, and you constantly have to adjust and go with the evolution and make it work. So that concludes our presentation for today. It gives you something to think about once this transcript goes up, you don't need to retain everything. We will open it up to other transmitters first and then Q&A second. But we will summarize what we just talked about, and if anyone wants to press 5 * with a transmission specifically, you might take me, Machiventa, or another Melchizedek, or an Archangel or possibly even Monjoronson.
We are pausing because … this is Machiventa. We are pausing because I would like to introduce and present to you Monjoronson. You have the podium.
Monjoronson
Thank you Machiventa, this is Monjoronson to the group. I speak deliberately and not to chastise but I beg of you this is the sounding alarm that the opportunity now exists for the appropriate amount of organization to provide you an opportunity, albeit a small one of something specific. You have the potential now, in fact you always did, but this is the first opening of spirit walking with you hand in hand, essentially guiding you in the work. We mentioned confidence earlier that also entails a certain amount of trust, and I asked you to put your trust in me, Monjoronson, trust that I am here to do what I intend to do with my other entourage of Magisterial Sons and the local universe entourage supporting us. All, under the direction of the executive of Nebadon, your Creator Son and my brother of Paradise, Michael of Nebadon, and all unified in the guidance of Father, our Father on Paradise, and within each one of you. That gives us our purpose to be with you all. You are in fact sacks of meat over 1 million years ago, and I borrow the term playfully from the neuroscientists perspective, who views you and your personality as a brain encased in a sack of meat. But there are admittedly certain things about personalities that neuroscientists have yet to explain, and have a very hard time explaining. Our favorite one is that the human mind and brain evolved past the point it ever intended to, and now does not know what to do with itself. Well, we know what to do with you, always have, always will. And now you do too. And we're going to help you ride the ship. That is all. I thank you for you're here, and I thank you Machiventa. I stepped down, but remind you I am now always present, you could say co-present.
Machiventa Melchizedek
Thank you, Monjoronson, this is Machiventa to the group. Now looking at the dashboard and there are no transmitter hands raised. And for that effect, we will go to any Q&A by first opening it up to the internet callers since no one has their hand raised. The internet callers I remind you have a brief time to express themselves with a Q&A, because they are unable to raise their hands. And we ask that questions and answer period be limited to the topic of Lightline in general. And if you have something outside of the topic of the Lightline, to ask permission about the non topical question.
Dominick
All right, so with that we have opened it up to internet caller 9113. You're unmuted and we will just go down the board until you or someone else wants to speak up. Internet coller 7084, you are now unmuted. The internet callers are unmuted, if you have a question speak up now. Otherwise I'll probably give you another several moments. Regardless, we thank you for your attendance. Thank you for listening. And with that we will remute you.
Okay, now we have a moment of Q&A available to everyone, you can press 5 * to raise your hand. Perhaps there's a clarification, or you have a comment, there's much to talk about what the 15 factors. And if not, we can look at the transcript later. Okay. There is a hand raised. Elise, you're unmuted. We'll come to you next, Lemuel. Hi, Elise.
Elise
Yes. Hi, Dominick, thank you. I was listening very attentively to the explanation and the topics you have been told. And I was wondering, if the forum, the discussion forum as we have it now, is that regarded as a working group? Or maybe part of it? Or could you regard it as a working group?
Dominick
Yeah, spiritually, yes. Technically, no. It does not have the organization of a working group. But spiritually it has been incubating all the talent, interest and experience to have an effective working group. Having said that, Elise, the other aspect of the working group once it aims to include the entire population outside of the forum, so this would be people completely foreign to the fifth epochal revelation, or anything related to it.
Elise
Hum, that's a goal.
Dominick
Yeah, that would be the B segment of a working group. So one example would be if you had clean energy as a working group, the aim is you will have a working group with a transmitter that would be Group A, and then you would have another group session B or whatever, a separate event, working on that same issue, but from a … essentially a strictly human standpoint.
Elise
Is it a purpose in the education by Adam and Eve in the future? That they are going to firm form these working groups? Or are they going to teach the people they are having in the schools to form working groups and then send them out?
Eve
This is Eve. Elise. The answer is it is entirely possible. And in fact, in some ways, you will equate the experience with whatever initiative we are doing, although they reserve the right to be separate from a specific working group. We could be visiting speakers, professors, if you will. Thank you, Elise. Does that help, Elise?
Elise
Yeah, yes, it helps. Yeah, I want to think more about it. So I have to listen again to the recording later. Yes. Thank you very much. Yeah. Thank you.
Dominick
One question we would have for you, you're, you're you are a transmitter, right? So what, what topic or what kind of subject area out of those 15 related. And remember, out of those 15 you can have something like scientific knowledge, which has, you know, almost an infinite amount of topics. But the question you can ask yourself is if you - you don't have to come up with one yourself, if you're just a transmitter, you can simply join one as that role. But you would probably want to join one that you had the vocabulary and experience to draw from as a transmitter. Right?
Elise
Yes, yes, yes. Yes. Thank you. I understand. Thank you.
Dominick
Okay. Right. I'm going to mute you and go to Lemuel. And there's capacity for more after Lemuel, it is open to anyone. Hi Lemuel.
Lemuel
Hi. Dominick, thank you. Just a quick one. I think it was Machiventa Melchizedek who began to stop, but he mentioned the word age. And was there something that we would all want? And the answer was, of course, time? Well, he didn't elaborate on that and there are people like myself who are well over the age of 80, and we were wondering if it's possible that he could say something more about people with the ages that we had?
Dominick
Yes, Lemuel, I will, let me ask. I'm going to mute you real quick and then unmute you after the transmission. Okay? Right. You heard the question, Machiventa, I wait for your transmission, if you will.
Machiventa Melchizedek
This is Machiventa Melchizedek. Lemuel, and to the group we mentioned, time is something that a human regardless of their success, but usually some common thread amongst successful strata of the population is that if you ask them, if there was one thing they would want more of, what would it be? And the answer is generally, you might say universally, they would want more time. Now, your question is appropriate, because it is not just related to life extension of age, but it is specific to the time in a day. You all have the same amount of hours in a day, you are all equal in the endowment of the hours in a day, given by your sun, and moon cycles on your planet. You get it. But people want more time to do things in the day, where they want more time to do a specific task or priority in their lives. I just as Machiventa speaking want to remind you that your age group is a tremendous resource in that you are at retirement age, and the one thing you have before your transition beyond the material is that you have some time, albeit a challenging time with your health. But nonetheless, you have time to work with. And you are in some respects a victim at this particular moment of a de-evolution, a devolution of civilization and culture through no fault of your own. And I simply want to motivate you that your participation in a working group can have an epigenetic effect. Now, I know you Lemuel, and it is okay to think, ‘Yes, old dogs can learn new tricks’, but there's no trick about it. It's spending your time with spirit and with the intention and discipline and confidence to add through your efforts something more than just your attendance and loyalty. This is Machiventa.
Dominick
Thank you Machiventa. Lemuel, is there any follow up or comment?
Lemuel
No, it won’t be necessary. Thank you Dominick. Thank you, Machiventa, thank you.
Dominick
You're entirely welcome. All right, we're muting you. All right, there are no other hands raised. Oh, there's one. I was about to give you all some time back in your day, but don't mean that. That's a horrible setup, Valerie, sorry for that. Valerie, you are unmuted.
Valerie
Thank you, Dominick. It's always the amount of information it's such that it would be better to listen to it again and digest it a little bit, but I do understand the concept. So with the assembling of work groups, is that the spirit will do that, or we are going to work it out amongst ourselves according to our choosing, or what we are doing, or how we fit into certain positions? I mean, is there a plan? I'm very delighted that now (we have) started to talk about it. What is the action we need to take right now?
Dominick
Okay, I understand the question. I have to mute you, Valerie. Sorry, there was just some feedback, I will unmute you when we're done, but the question as I understand it, Valerie, not only do we have a Machiventa together with me answering, but I personally have experience with you for about a year now, where you, Valerie have pretty much performed the role of a chronicler. And you are starting to transcribe more, the transcriptions, and you are learning the tools. So, in some respects, your question is asking, will you get specific guidance, or, in your case, you like to feel your way into things, pray and consider your path, taking the Father into account, and spiritual worth. And that's all very valuable. And we don't expect you to stop or change anything, Valerie. But that you have the continued opportunity to have more organization and specific direction, if you choose. You have done excellent work in the face of tremendous personal difficulties on a technical end of your, you can say personal technology of your home. And yet you still overcome that. And you work towards it. So you dedicate your time, and we don't want to burn you out, ever. But if you choose to participate, you will have the experience to accept further organization, if you choose. Does that help, Valerie? you're unmuted.
Valerie
Yes, but my thought process on this over the years is that I always had the faith to believe that my Father had a specific plan for me; much of it he revealed and I believed that he would lead me into it. And that is a hold-back for me many times to dedicate myself to anything else because I just don't want to cross his plans. He wants to open doors for me to walk through and yes, this is an open door and I'm walking into it, and now that I'm really interested in getting very involved in the work, and being a useful part of the operation. So yeah, there's a lot of questions, but okay, fine, I thank you very much.
Dominick,
Now, you're welcome. All right, I've muted Valerie.
Eve
This is Eve, Dominick, may I step in?
Dominick
Of course.
Eve
Just as an addendum. There are incubated on the forum and this is a follow up to all the questions
that working groups provide an organization, you could say a preliminary, because it is related to the Melchizedek program of working groups, almost designed for factor number 15, the transitional stages and prevention of societal, cultural and civilizational collapse. So, of course, working groups pertain to the subject matter that myself and Adam, from a curriculum and programmatic perspective, aim to institute. We will have our own set of formal programs given the chance, but now is an opportunity to not just try, but there is an urgency that if you want to play a part, you certainly can. And these working groups provide an organization to get going, and for you to raise your hand and say, here's where I can participate, here's where I will participate. And then after that, it's up to the leadership in terms of organization, setting you up to be successful and contribute. That's what the leadership is tasked to do on the human side to administrate your successful participation. Thank you, I stand back.
Dominick
Thank you, Eve. Okay, that ends our call right at three o'clock, there are no more hands raised. So that ends Tuesday's Lightline. I will generally work on transcribing this and getting it up for the group. And again, you can see that at fatherslightline.com, and we'll always post it to the forum. And we'll now open it up and we end the call. Thanks for attending.

Host Dominck Ohrbeck
Speakers: Machiventa Melchizedek, Monjoronson, Eve
Topics: defining AB working groups, 15 factors related to the maintenance of civilization, Spirit is opening doors for volunteers, and Q&A
Dominick
All right, welcome to Tuesday's Lightline, everybody. Without launching into the intro today, I'm going to pass that, but just know that for those listening, there are other Lightlines on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, here and Wednesday, all with the same call-in information, and Internet audio, otherwise known as voice over IP. And they're all at 2pm. Eastern time. If you want discussions about Lightlines, or any information in between Lightlines, go to forum.servera.org. And if you want to just keep in touch with Lightline, via transcripts and attendance information, and they're all recorded mostly, you can go to fatherslightline.com. But just as some housekeeping for the callers, the attendees, you can mute your phone on and off anytime pressing 4 * and you can raise your hand pressing 5 *. Time permitting people attending by voice over IP I have to unmute you, there's no way to raise your hand. So I can't see if you've done that.
So, we pray to the Father for clear and clean circuits of communication. And we ask, is there an emcee today? But I don't need to ask further because I've had an emcee in my ear for 24 hours.
Welcome Machiventa Melchizedek
Machiventa Melchizedek
Thank you, Dominick. This is Machiventa Melchizedek. I'd like to welcome everyone to the call, and we have a robust Lightline today. We will start by discussing the Mission structure at a high level, meaning a general level. And we will also discuss the AB testing of working groups. AB testing is something you can look up and search for, but it means comparing one set to another set. In this case, we're going to be talking about a working group with a transmitter and a working group or equivalent without a transmitter. We will end the Lightline with a general kind of housekeeping related to active roles, as active roles r o l e s, you might consider participating in. So, that's our outline. The mission structure, and I've prepared these notes so, understand if you hear anything at Dominick's voice, this transmitter is reading and I am augmenting his reading. It's a different style and not one we use all the time, and do inform everyone we are for the first time in these Lightlines recording video. There is a live stream participation no one has joined and that's okay because we're doing this as a practice run essentially. But it is live, he has dressed for work. So, under the mission structure, these are Magisterial Missions, Michael Missions, any other missions. So, without further ado, the outline is as follows:
Paradise Sons are at the top. These are the macro movers and shakers. These are in general Magisterial Sons in the halls of power and policy. You know a good example of this is, and will be, the Regency, also pronounced Regency. Another Paradise Son at the top is the promised return of Jesus. A mortal who attained Paradise after his Paradise Creator Son’s bestowal on Urantia. Those would be the personnel at the top of the missions.
A middle tier, if you will, are the Melchizedeks. These are at the governance level, the societal and institutional level. You could consider these the policy administrators. Much in the same way we organize a Lightline often. You don't see, for example, Magisterial Son acting as an emcee, but they do participate. At the lower and just as important levels might be and will be Archangels, material Adam and Eve also known as material sons, material daughters. They might be operating and will be operating at the household level, the family level, the community level. They will be actively involved in schooling, and educational institutions. Notice I did not say specifically schools or universities, because we don't want to limit ourselves to just those institutions. But anything related to schooling, and educational function of the maintenance of civilization. Related to schooling and education that permeate down to households, families, and communities. The higher echelons of say universities and specialized studies eventually flow upwards towards the Melchizedek levels of major institutions. So that is a, what we say is a high level mission structure of the personnel from the celestial side, the spirit side, the incarnated side.
We will now move on to the next subject, which is the concept of a working group. And we're comparing in this case, a working group with the transmitter. Now again, a working group can be or will be specialized by a domain, a field, a subject. We gave examples last week, it could be things like disease control, clean energy, community organization, leadership development, those types of subjects. Now, if you took that example of a working group, what's think of anyone doesn't matter. But if you were to compare that to an example of what passes for a non-transmission working group today, that might be something like an app or possibly another code word for a chatbot. For example, the app is really a chatbot. Now, what would be the difference between a working group with a transmitter and a chatbot? The working group will have a code of conduct whereas a chatbot has a legal agreement. Your participation in that working group requires some amount of discipline with best practices participating in the meeting or the event, with a certain level of competence. Your chatbot has a privacy policy, a Terms and Conditions about the information it collects from you, and uses. A working group with the transmitter has covert and overt - that's covert with a C an overt with an O - motivation. You could say the whole thing is a social contract. Whereas the app and chatbot collects your data, sells your data. It is a database of text. It is an artificial intelligence prediction model that is quite effective with the database it uses. Compare this to the working group that utilizes the very universal aspect of creativity. It has an epigenetic effect on you, and the group, and spirit. We talked about creativity and epigenetics In very recent Lightlines.
The chatbot and application are linguistic traps. For example, you might have heard or expressed at one point in time, if you ever read the fifth epochal revelation that the Urantia Book changed your life. How many times have we read and heard that, or felt that even, or identified with that? We only say this is a linguistic trap. Because linguistically, you are not giving credit in that sentence or statement to what you maybe and are truly expressing, which is Father changed your life. Paradise Trinity, and the existential deities changed your life. Christ Michael changed your life, or Jesus changed your life. The working group as a transmitter is personably knowable. It means you personally try. You don't ask a question to a chatbot and expect personality in return. Now we're starting to flow into the next topic a little bit. We're done with direct comparison, but we also talked in the last Lightline or two the subject of age.
A lot of attendees are, and frankly people eligible to serve in the missions as we've stated, are over the age of 50, but typically of retired age. And what's generally said no matter what for people of that age, regardless of their success, but particularly with people who are quote unquote successful, is that if they could have one thing, name one thing that they would like to have more of, and the answer is time. And this is something you get when you retire that you get time. Now bear with me, we're jumping around a little bit. But I just wanted to get that out of the way.
We want to continue by saying transmitters sustain themselves when they're without concern to status or hierarchy. Yeah, it is human nature and even the success of genetics is due to competition and social need for status and hierarchy when we talk about genetics and DNA, so, how do we resolve ambition, while the revelation advises that ambition be transformed into a social benefit, competition be socialized into a social benefit. The classic definition of a corporation is the public good. Not socialized and autocratic communism, but perhaps socialized on some levels in for example, basic services in social democracies. Which leads us to a paraphrasing of the inter association of the 15 factors related to the maintenance of civilization which we touched on last time. But we will end with a twist on number 15 at the end.
Dominick
1. #1 was geography, essentially natural resources.
2. goods and services, access to goods and services with the payoff of a leisure and innovation effect. Without leisure there is truly no innovation in the culture.
3. science and knowledge. Science and knowledge benefit thought, improvement, and material improvement.
4. is essentially about the modern field of demographics. But also taught touches upon the optimization and frankly social engineering via wise and intelligent leadership of demographic. In this case, it would be demographics of states inter associated at a global level.
5. resource utilization. In the past, there was force, might makes right, and the hint that leadership is generally somehow related to a minority of the population. And the balance is wise, moral, intelligent capabilities, versus mob rule or psychopathic rule.
6. linguistics. Language and its effect on international relations and inter associations of the various populations.
7. mechanization. The distribution of resources and labor, liberation, these relate to several types of freedom that you might, and people desire.
8. home, social leisure, schooling, essentially how to transfer culture and civilization from one generation to the next.
9. national ideals. We are now changing this to national ideals. We said race and nation, but now wish to not ignore but disassociate from the powderkeg of race, and make it synonymous with national ideals, which is truly to say, what is the aim? How are you aiming, literally targeting with your aim and reaching for? What are you striving for? What are you aiming for with the next generation through the home, the church, and the school, for example? And if you can't name a church, or you have an allergic reaction to the church, think about that. We strive to inform you that if you do not have a specific church or denomination of church, or type of church, something often takes its place in the form of a church that you may or may not recognize as such.
10. specialization. This is really handling the disruption of technology and industries, when specialization of the workforce has to adjust to disruption. Essentially you could say this as a way of repurposing the workforce. Essentially when you are displaced, you feel a loss of purpose. Nothing wrong with that, you simply are in the journey of repurposing yourself in society.
11. placement and fallback of trades and skills. This is a natural extension of the last point, but there needs to be placement of people, together with fallback of trades and skills. This could be as simple as carpentry, gardening, and the like. And for those on the forum, Valerie did a transcription and a good example of placement is in that Adam and Eve transcript about schooling, where school administrators are placing students in different avenues and different experiences in the field, to get experience about what I'm just talking about. As opposed to a school administrator policing teachers and doling out punishment or enforcement.
12. conflicts of interest versus cooperation. Not only is this personal, but it extends to international relations. How do you handle conflicts of interest versus cooperation.
13. and this is where your homework comes into effect because we have relabeled this mentally or mental at agility, mentally agile. Or you could say mental agility together with intelligent wisdom. These are qualities and expressions. And the spectrum ranges from and includes all of the following: material, intelligence, morals, social cleverness, which we can identify as hierarchy and status with vastly cosmic insight.
14. society is not fine. There is an evolution to society and it is essential to innovation that we evolve. And lastly,
15. which last week we did, we touched on the transitional maintenance of civilization during transitional breakdowns. And we talked about the Regency. We talked about things at the very top level of the Regency, instituting or advising things such as martial law in extreme emergencies. And we also talked about the Regency ideal of having less extreme emergencies and ideal cooperation with policies.
Machiventa Melchizedek
But what we did not touch on specifically, was the other end of that spectrum, which I address, and this is Machiventa Melchizedek still speaking, that we did not address working groups.
Working groups certainly are capable of buffering and aiding in the transitional breakdown. That concludes the 15. factors. So, with working groups, that's our next topic. And I would like to not necessarily read from notes anymore. This is Machiventa once again speaking, more or less adlib to you. But we would like to get to something if you can assimilate what we've just talked about. There are rules within working groups that you have the potential to take on. That if you're exposed to, with a little bit of confidence and discipline and time, that you are guaranteed to exercise your creativity and have a positive epigenetic effect on yourself and others spirit and your civilization. So, with that we more or less end the official lecture part, and we would like to go into specifics about the types of roles that are possible in a working group.
The backstory is, working groups are a concept that I have introduced for over 10 years. There are a spattering of cases around the globe of them working, but they have yet to reach an organization that would truly affect the preservation and protect the transitional breakdown of civilization. And therefore they are still irrelevant, although they are not just timely anymore but urgently needed. So, here are the following roles.
There are where is an MC moderator. That's one role.
Another role is a transmitter.
Another role, potentially, is what we are temporarily calling the chronicler. Just like the institution and program of the chronicles, Ron talks about. But the chronicler would do something close to and specific to transcription and archiving.
Next, we might be a technical operator, I remind you, this Lightline is operated by telephone, voice over IP, and internet video conferencing, synonymous with Zoom, although this particular case is using the Microsoft equivalent of zoom. So, technical operator might help with those things, but specifically, it makes sense that the technical operator could also function as the meeting timer. In other words, some organization and discipline to the specifics of a working group, event or session. This is not a Lightline and has a different structure, and has a little bit more discipline and organization to it. In that there might be a timer to help move on to the next segment.
Next, there is a curator. We're temporarily calling this the curator, but the curator is the collector of the team effort of research, and resources. You could aggregate these things automatically through things like search and harvesting data, but the curator adds a personal touch, and gives the person an opportunity to utilize what we just talked about, intelligence and wisdom, and judgment. And frankly, these are usually better than automation.
Lastly, there is the member or attendee of the working group. You would think the member or attendee is similar to what we have here on Lightlines and it is not. Because the working group is specific to a domain and field of endeavor, with the aim of integrating into these missions, and helping, not just civilizational breakdown transition, but augmenting and progressing the civilization and culture. So with these projects in mind or field in mind, a member or attendee is specifically interested in implementation, action plans, and action items. That's jargon for some. Simply look the term up. It's not that complicated. It just means implementing where it matters in the field. You can talk all you want, but eventually, people have to do something and it lands in the field, and it's never quite as it drew-up the draw on the planning board, and you constantly have to adjust and go with the evolution and make it work. So that concludes our presentation for today. It gives you something to think about once this transcript goes up, you don't need to retain everything. We will open it up to other transmitters first and then Q&A second. But we will summarize what we just talked about, and if anyone wants to press 5 * with a transmission specifically, you might take me, Machiventa, or another Melchizedek, or an Archangel or possibly even Monjoronson.
We are pausing because … this is Machiventa. We are pausing because I would like to introduce and present to you Monjoronson. You have the podium.
Monjoronson
Thank you Machiventa, this is Monjoronson to the group. I speak deliberately and not to chastise but I beg of you this is the sounding alarm that the opportunity now exists for the appropriate amount of organization to provide you an opportunity, albeit a small one of something specific. You have the potential now, in fact you always did, but this is the first opening of spirit walking with you hand in hand, essentially guiding you in the work. We mentioned confidence earlier that also entails a certain amount of trust, and I asked you to put your trust in me, Monjoronson, trust that I am here to do what I intend to do with my other entourage of Magisterial Sons and the local universe entourage supporting us. All, under the direction of the executive of Nebadon, your Creator Son and my brother of Paradise, Michael of Nebadon, and all unified in the guidance of Father, our Father on Paradise, and within each one of you. That gives us our purpose to be with you all. You are in fact sacks of meat over 1 million years ago, and I borrow the term playfully from the neuroscientists perspective, who views you and your personality as a brain encased in a sack of meat. But there are admittedly certain things about personalities that neuroscientists have yet to explain, and have a very hard time explaining. Our favorite one is that the human mind and brain evolved past the point it ever intended to, and now does not know what to do with itself. Well, we know what to do with you, always have, always will. And now you do too. And we're going to help you ride the ship. That is all. I thank you for you're here, and I thank you Machiventa. I stepped down, but remind you I am now always present, you could say co-present.
Machiventa Melchizedek
Thank you, Monjoronson, this is Machiventa to the group. Now looking at the dashboard and there are no transmitter hands raised. And for that effect, we will go to any Q&A by first opening it up to the internet callers since no one has their hand raised. The internet callers I remind you have a brief time to express themselves with a Q&A, because they are unable to raise their hands. And we ask that questions and answer period be limited to the topic of Lightline in general. And if you have something outside of the topic of the Lightline, to ask permission about the non topical question.
Dominick
All right, so with that we have opened it up to internet caller 9113. You're unmuted and we will just go down the board until you or someone else wants to speak up. Internet coller 7084, you are now unmuted. The internet callers are unmuted, if you have a question speak up now. Otherwise I'll probably give you another several moments. Regardless, we thank you for your attendance. Thank you for listening. And with that we will remute you.
Okay, now we have a moment of Q&A available to everyone, you can press 5 * to raise your hand. Perhaps there's a clarification, or you have a comment, there's much to talk about what the 15 factors. And if not, we can look at the transcript later. Okay. There is a hand raised. Elise, you're unmuted. We'll come to you next, Lemuel. Hi, Elise.
Elise
Yes. Hi, Dominick, thank you. I was listening very attentively to the explanation and the topics you have been told. And I was wondering, if the forum, the discussion forum as we have it now, is that regarded as a working group? Or maybe part of it? Or could you regard it as a working group?
Dominick
Yeah, spiritually, yes. Technically, no. It does not have the organization of a working group. But spiritually it has been incubating all the talent, interest and experience to have an effective working group. Having said that, Elise, the other aspect of the working group once it aims to include the entire population outside of the forum, so this would be people completely foreign to the fifth epochal revelation, or anything related to it.
Elise
Hum, that's a goal.
Dominick
Yeah, that would be the B segment of a working group. So one example would be if you had clean energy as a working group, the aim is you will have a working group with a transmitter that would be Group A, and then you would have another group session B or whatever, a separate event, working on that same issue, but from a … essentially a strictly human standpoint.
Elise
Is it a purpose in the education by Adam and Eve in the future? That they are going to firm form these working groups? Or are they going to teach the people they are having in the schools to form working groups and then send them out?
Eve
This is Eve. Elise. The answer is it is entirely possible. And in fact, in some ways, you will equate the experience with whatever initiative we are doing, although they reserve the right to be separate from a specific working group. We could be visiting speakers, professors, if you will. Thank you, Elise. Does that help, Elise?
Elise
Yeah, yes, it helps. Yeah, I want to think more about it. So I have to listen again to the recording later. Yes. Thank you very much. Yeah. Thank you.
Dominick
One question we would have for you, you're, you're you are a transmitter, right? So what, what topic or what kind of subject area out of those 15 related. And remember, out of those 15 you can have something like scientific knowledge, which has, you know, almost an infinite amount of topics. But the question you can ask yourself is if you - you don't have to come up with one yourself, if you're just a transmitter, you can simply join one as that role. But you would probably want to join one that you had the vocabulary and experience to draw from as a transmitter. Right?
Elise
Yes, yes, yes. Yes. Thank you. I understand. Thank you.
Dominick
Okay. Right. I'm going to mute you and go to Lemuel. And there's capacity for more after Lemuel, it is open to anyone. Hi Lemuel.
Lemuel
Hi. Dominick, thank you. Just a quick one. I think it was Machiventa Melchizedek who began to stop, but he mentioned the word age. And was there something that we would all want? And the answer was, of course, time? Well, he didn't elaborate on that and there are people like myself who are well over the age of 80, and we were wondering if it's possible that he could say something more about people with the ages that we had?
Dominick
Yes, Lemuel, I will, let me ask. I'm going to mute you real quick and then unmute you after the transmission. Okay? Right. You heard the question, Machiventa, I wait for your transmission, if you will.
Machiventa Melchizedek
This is Machiventa Melchizedek. Lemuel, and to the group we mentioned, time is something that a human regardless of their success, but usually some common thread amongst successful strata of the population is that if you ask them, if there was one thing they would want more of, what would it be? And the answer is generally, you might say universally, they would want more time. Now, your question is appropriate, because it is not just related to life extension of age, but it is specific to the time in a day. You all have the same amount of hours in a day, you are all equal in the endowment of the hours in a day, given by your sun, and moon cycles on your planet. You get it. But people want more time to do things in the day, where they want more time to do a specific task or priority in their lives. I just as Machiventa speaking want to remind you that your age group is a tremendous resource in that you are at retirement age, and the one thing you have before your transition beyond the material is that you have some time, albeit a challenging time with your health. But nonetheless, you have time to work with. And you are in some respects a victim at this particular moment of a de-evolution, a devolution of civilization and culture through no fault of your own. And I simply want to motivate you that your participation in a working group can have an epigenetic effect. Now, I know you Lemuel, and it is okay to think, ‘Yes, old dogs can learn new tricks’, but there's no trick about it. It's spending your time with spirit and with the intention and discipline and confidence to add through your efforts something more than just your attendance and loyalty. This is Machiventa.
Dominick
Thank you Machiventa. Lemuel, is there any follow up or comment?
Lemuel
No, it won’t be necessary. Thank you Dominick. Thank you, Machiventa, thank you.
Dominick
You're entirely welcome. All right, we're muting you. All right, there are no other hands raised. Oh, there's one. I was about to give you all some time back in your day, but don't mean that. That's a horrible setup, Valerie, sorry for that. Valerie, you are unmuted.
Valerie
Thank you, Dominick. It's always the amount of information it's such that it would be better to listen to it again and digest it a little bit, but I do understand the concept. So with the assembling of work groups, is that the spirit will do that, or we are going to work it out amongst ourselves according to our choosing, or what we are doing, or how we fit into certain positions? I mean, is there a plan? I'm very delighted that now (we have) started to talk about it. What is the action we need to take right now?
Dominick
Okay, I understand the question. I have to mute you, Valerie. Sorry, there was just some feedback, I will unmute you when we're done, but the question as I understand it, Valerie, not only do we have a Machiventa together with me answering, but I personally have experience with you for about a year now, where you, Valerie have pretty much performed the role of a chronicler. And you are starting to transcribe more, the transcriptions, and you are learning the tools. So, in some respects, your question is asking, will you get specific guidance, or, in your case, you like to feel your way into things, pray and consider your path, taking the Father into account, and spiritual worth. And that's all very valuable. And we don't expect you to stop or change anything, Valerie. But that you have the continued opportunity to have more organization and specific direction, if you choose. You have done excellent work in the face of tremendous personal difficulties on a technical end of your, you can say personal technology of your home. And yet you still overcome that. And you work towards it. So you dedicate your time, and we don't want to burn you out, ever. But if you choose to participate, you will have the experience to accept further organization, if you choose. Does that help, Valerie? you're unmuted.
Valerie
Yes, but my thought process on this over the years is that I always had the faith to believe that my Father had a specific plan for me; much of it he revealed and I believed that he would lead me into it. And that is a hold-back for me many times to dedicate myself to anything else because I just don't want to cross his plans. He wants to open doors for me to walk through and yes, this is an open door and I'm walking into it, and now that I'm really interested in getting very involved in the work, and being a useful part of the operation. So yeah, there's a lot of questions, but okay, fine, I thank you very much.
Dominick,
Now, you're welcome. All right, I've muted Valerie.
Eve
This is Eve, Dominick, may I step in?
Dominick
Of course.
Eve
Just as an addendum. There are incubated on the forum and this is a follow up to all the questions
that working groups provide an organization, you could say a preliminary, because it is related to the Melchizedek program of working groups, almost designed for factor number 15, the transitional stages and prevention of societal, cultural and civilizational collapse. So, of course, working groups pertain to the subject matter that myself and Adam, from a curriculum and programmatic perspective, aim to institute. We will have our own set of formal programs given the chance, but now is an opportunity to not just try, but there is an urgency that if you want to play a part, you certainly can. And these working groups provide an organization to get going, and for you to raise your hand and say, here's where I can participate, here's where I will participate. And then after that, it's up to the leadership in terms of organization, setting you up to be successful and contribute. That's what the leadership is tasked to do on the human side to administrate your successful participation. Thank you, I stand back.
Dominick
Thank you, Eve. Okay, that ends our call right at three o'clock, there are no more hands raised. So that ends Tuesday's Lightline. I will generally work on transcribing this and getting it up for the group. And again, you can see that at fatherslightline.com, and we'll always post it to the forum. And we'll now open it up and we end the call. Thanks for attending.
End
