M., Lipscombe, D., Moore, C. I., Hochgeschwender, U., Shaner, N. C. Abstract: The ability to manipulate neuronal activity both opto- and chemogenetically with a single actuator molecule presents unique and flexible means to study neural circuit function. We previously developed methodology to enable such bimodal control using fusion molecules called luminopsins (LMOs), where a channelrhodopsin actuator can be activated using either physical (LED driven) or biological (bioluminescent) light. While activation of LMOs using bioluminescence has previously allowed manipulation of circuits and behavior in mice, further improvement would advance the utility of this technique. Thus, we here aimed to increase the efficiency of bioluminescent activation of channelrhodopsins by development of novel FRET-probes with bright and spectrally matched emission tailored to Volvox channelrhodopsin 1 (VChR1). We find that pairing of a molecularly evolved Oplophorus luciferase variant with mNeonGreen significantly improves the efficacy of bioluminescent activation when tethered to VChR1 (construct named LMO7) as compared to previous and other newly generated LMO variants. We proceed to extensively benchmark LMO7 against previous LMO standard (LMO3) and find that LMO7 outperforms LMO3 in the ability to drive bioluminescent activation of VChR1 both in vitro and in vivo, and efficiently modulates animal behavior following intraperitonial injection of fluorofurimazine. In conclusion, we demonstrate a rationale for improving bioluminescent activation of optogenetic actuators using a tailored molecular engineering approach and provide a new tool to bimodally manipulate neuronal activity with increased bioluminescence-driven efficacy.

Our final premiere of the week comes from Minneapolis based techno producer Lonefront, who's supplied a deep and hypnotic techno cut, perfect for murky basement clubs. An artist out of Minneapolis by way of the Bay Area, Lonefront produces explorative techno cuts as well as his performances as a live modular act, appearing on bills alongside DVS1, Volvox and Planetary Assault Systems. Now, the Minnesotan producer brings his dynamic take on the genre to Kajunga Records with two tracks pressed on wax across ‘Additive Spectra / South Of Forever'. Lead track ‘Additive Spectra' is a loopy affair awash with alarming bleeps, moody low-ends and sharp percussion, before B2's ‘South Of Forever' provides a twisted, eerie soundscape as shadowy synths churn throughout this slice of modular grooves. ‘South Forever' is deep and grimy, reminiscent of the classic Klockworks releases and cathartic dances at Berghain. Trippy melodies play off misty atmospheres, causing chilling and fine-drawn tension. This is modern day minimalism at its finest.

Jay began DJing at ripe age of 16 and by 18 he was asked to be resident at Disco Nouveau, a long running underground club night in his hometown of Mullingar. Fast forward a couple of years and he was invited to be resident at Twelfth Planet until he decided to begin his own journey as an independent promoter. With a career spanning well over a deacde Jay has graced some of Irelands most iconic venues such as; Tripod, The Tivoli Theatre, The Twisted Pepper and more. The Twisted Pepper (now Wigwam) has been home to many of Jay's show's and provided cathartic techno experiences for many punters. Since 2013 Mutate Events has been focused on bringing quality techno to Dublin with such artists as; Jeroen Search, Roman Lindau, Lewis Fautzi, Stefan Vincent, Abstract Division, Tensal, Abdulla Rashim, Tripeo, Mama Snake, Volvox, Amotik, Jamaica Suk, Rune Bagge, Héctor Oaks, Silent Servant, UVB, Charlton, RIVET along with many, many more. You get the jist…Jay most definitely knows what he's at. Working alongside and garnering support from some of the longest running nights Ireland has to offer such as Jamie Behan's Bastardo Electrico, Subject, Life Festival & Research, he has given his all to promoting a vibrant underground scene for the capital. He has a bi-weekly radio show on Ireland's number one online radio station, alongside his residents, UNTHINK, Corner, Exit the Void & Niall Cleary on Dublin Digital Radio, where he showcases the best upcoming talent Ireland's techno scene has to offer. This mix offers a slice of what Jay is all about, an ensemble of techno of various sorts rolled into a warped two hour trip. Jay made a point of playing unreleased music from various Irish producers including Aero, Fyun, David O'neil, Offtrack and more. A smooth yet carnivorous trip around Jay's back catalogue leaves the listener on the edge of their seat, unsure of what gnarly turn the mix might take next. This is the techno equivalent of a page turner novel.
En el episodio de hoy echaremos una ojeada a vista de pájaro a las algas verdes y las carófitas, que son respectivamente primas lejanas y primas hermanas de las plantas terrestres. Hoy hemos hablado de: -Archeplastidia: las viejas plastudas, compuestas por algas rojas, algas verdes y glaucófitas. -Plasmodium: el parásito de la malaria. -Viridiplantae: Las que antes eran algas verdes pero que ahora comprenden algas verdes + plantas terrestres. En cuanto a algas verdes en general, vamos a ver unos ejemplos: -Chlamydomonas, un alga verde unicelular muy típica: 03aea4820e90259ec7b3cbd97bee6867.jpg (452×360) (pinimg.com)-Ulva, la lechuga de mar: Meersalat-Ulva-lactuca.jpg (3000×2126) (wikimedia.org)-Caulerpa, el alga macroscópica que consiste en una única célula: 3-Caulerpa-racemosa-1.jpg (960×640) (monaconatureencyclopedia.com)-Volvox, la simpática alga colonial con desarrollo embrionario: colonies-Volvox-aureus-daughter-movements-environment-flagella.jpg (800×450) (britannica.com)Aquí algunos ejemplos de carófitas (Charophyta). Si las juntamos con las plantas terrestres el grupo se llama Streptophyta: -Micrasterias, unas bonitas algas unicelulares: Micrasterias_radiata.jpg (640×480) (wikimedia.org)-Spirogyra, la masa viscosa verde que se forma en la superficie de los estanques pero que al microscopio es muy bonita: Light-microscopic-images-of-Spirogyra-morphotypes-from-the-Lake-Baikal-region-A.jpg (850×1193) (researchgate.net)-Chara, una carófita con una organización corporal bastante compleja: 1200px-CharaFragilis.jpg (1200×1753) (wikimedia.org)

Scalar energy is the fundamental life force found everywhere in the world, space and universe. It originates from the sun and stars. Chi, prana, OM, mana, life force, pyramid energy or zero-point energy are synonymous terms for scalar energy. I began research with scalar energy during my undergraduate years. Inspired by various scientists, especially Nikola Tesla (a genius who invented alternating current), I was curious to learn more about the existence of an energy that was not of the electromagnetic spectrum. I pursued a course of independent study in order to better understand and subsequently harness scalar energy, as this emerging science is not taught at the university level. One of my scientific predecessors was T. Galen Hieronymus, a resident of Georgia and one of the few scalar energy researchers in the United States in the last century. I read Galen’s notes and used his instruments after his death. Some of Galen’s inventions, according to a 1977 magazine article, were “quasielectronic instruments that could (a) analyze the component elements of an ore sample without spectroscopic, chemical or other orthodox methods, and, most surprising of all, (b) influence (even kill) living organisms, even from vast distances, with no scientifically understandable mechanism at the other end.” I theorized that all energy in the universe initiates as scalar energy; and that the sun of our solar system and the stars of the universe are the points of origin, “the storehouses,” for scalar energy. I further theorized that scalar energy is instructive energy, as the entire universe is instructed by this Divine Essence. Subsequently, all spiritual, cognitive, emotional and physical action in the universe is initiated and maintained by scalar energy instructions. Scalar energy provides order in the universe. Based on these theories and the work of scientists who came before me, I was able to develop scalar energy instruments capable of harnessing and transmitting instructive energy to heal human subjects remotely. You can think of this as similar to a radio broadcast with my instruments as the broadcaster, and your body as the receiver. The difference is that the energy transmitted is not electromagnetic, and is therefore immeasurable by traditional science. My instruments provide a remote, fast, harmless and painless treatment process that has successfully healed patients with HIV/AIDS, Ebola, herpes, hepatitis, Lyme disease, and over 400,000 pathogens that cause disease. They administer the scalar energy reverse-phase angle harmonic of a pathogen, thereby causing that agent of infection to disassemble or fall apart. Bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoan, can all be disassembled, representing a cure for thousands of diseases. Once the causative agent of a pathogen disease has been eliminated, the symptoms associated with that infection decrease or disappear altogether. An independent, out-of-state laboratory submitted magnified photographs of various species of living protozoan to me to be treated by way of the scalar energy instrument. Four experiments were conducted in which various species of Paramecium, Volvox, Amoeba, Euglena and Stentor were treated with scalar energy, resulting in these protozoa being disassembled and subsequently destroyed. The lab experiments were video recorded in order to substantiate the efficacy of the scalar energy pathogenic cleanse to disassemble and destroy pathogens. You can check my websites to see the results! Tom Paladino is a scalar energy researcher based in Florida.

Tune in to Spoken Word on 3CR 9am Thursday 21st November to hear Antony Riddelll in conversation with Carmen Main.Antony shares excerpts of his novel 'Animalcule' ahead of his book launch Saturday 23rd November 2pm at the Dan O' Connell Poetry Readings in Carlton (225 Canning St, Carlton). We hope to see you there!---------Join Write-ability and The Dan Poets to celebrate the launch of Animalcule by Anthony Riddelll. Anthony, a 2018 Write-ability Fellow, is a well known poet at the Dan, and performs around Melbourne with Weave Theatre. Anthony' s exhilarating, jarring and surrealist stories and his weird and irresistable characters,combined with his unique line illustrations have created their own genre - Speculative Non-Fiction. Dedicated fans will be delighted by this new addition to his work. Published by In Case of Emergency Press www.icoe.com.au/2019003.html, Animalcule follows the adventures of Bladderland, Strawberrie, Dr Bing-Bang and Ichabod Schnell, across an extraordinary landscape of small pink domes, spherical rocks, herds of roaming furry televisions, laminated cardboard animals and the dreaded Grinhorn. ---------Anthony Riddell - ResumeI am a writer and performance poet of twenty-seven years standing, regularly appearing with the Dan Poets at the Dan O’Connell Hotel. My artistic output spans four decades and includes my involvement in the punk and fringe music industry in Sydney and Melbourne, including with the bands Nada and Volvox, and my years performing with and writing for Weave Movement Theatre.In 2018 I was awarded a Writeability Fellowship through Writers Victoria to develop my manuscript “The Sun is not Fun”.In 2019 I was highly commended for Writers Victoria’s Publishability fellowshipsMy most recent publications include ‘Love and Eftpos,’ published on the Writers Victoria Website in December 2018. https://writersvictoria.org.au/node/3457 and ‘Egg’ published in in Westerly’s Special Edition ‘DisAbility’ in May 2019. https://westerlymag.com.au/issues/westerly-disability/My Chapbook, ‘Animalcule, will be published by In Case Of Emerency Press later this year.I have self-published sixteen earlier written works and artist books. My writing has been described as “uncanny and irrational stories marked by surrealist wordplay.” In 2013, Australian poet Andy Jackson wrote in US journal Wordgathering of the “wildness and excess” of my work. He says: “Riddell’s aim is to disorient, to call into question our common assumptions about meaning and literature, and to entertain...(his) surreal and humorous prose (is) always exhilarating and jarring…he writes what he has always been interested in – absurd and provocative alternate realities.”In 2015, my art exhibition “Fingerprints on the Surface of the Brain” ran at Blindside Gallery, and that same year I was interviewed by Matthew O’Shannessy in The Fanzine. He described my earlier works as “strange drawings of microscopic organisms, animals and brains with chunks of type-writer text…absurd, meandering adventures where characters and situations operate on an obscure internal logic, like a DIY Raymond Roussel”

Människans tillvaro hänger antagligen samman med en två miljarder år gammal passion mellan en bakterie och en arké. Mikrobiologen Farshid Jalalvand funderar över uppkomsten av livet som vi känner det. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Är hon en Capulet?! O Gud, mitt liv är då en oväns rätt! Det utbrister Shakespeares Romeo när han får reda på vem tjejen han kärat ner sig i är. Julia, är av huset Capulet, arvfiender till familjen Montague, huset Romeo tillhör. Paret är oförenliga av börd, men ändå uppslukade av varandra, som genom en naturkraft. Det som inte kunde vara, blir. För cirka 2 miljarder år sedan, långt innan människor eller ens multicellulärt liv existerade, inträffade en liknande händelse en händelse som kom att drastiskt förändra jordens historia. Två individer, från livets två olika, oförenliga grenar, träffades någonstans ute i en de stora oceanerna. Efter en kyss, bjöd den mer sofistikerade den enklare och ivrigare parten in till sig. Och så inleddes ett äktenskap som varat i 2 miljarder år och som evolutionärt är en av de mest lyckade sammankomsterna i livets historia. De två individerna som gifte sig, där ute i havet, för eoner sen, lever kvar än idag, bland annat genom dig. Du är en direkt ättling till den där eukaryota cellen. Livet på jorden är vetenskapligt indelat i tre huvudgrenar. Och ingen av dem är djur eller växter, som många skulle kunna tro. Faktum är att om man granskar släktskapet mellan alla organismer på jorden är djur och växter bara två små intilliggande kvistar på en gren av livets stora träd. Det betyder att en katt och en gran är relativt närbesläktade, jämfört med allt annat som finns där ute. Huvudgrenen som den kvisten sitter på, och som samlar såväl människor som hårlösa marsvin, olivträd, flugsvampar och amöbor, är de eukaryota cellernas rike. Dessa celler har en DNA-skyddande cellkärna, en mer komplicerad cellarkitektur och mer avancerade förmågor än cellerna på den andra grenen på livets träd den bakteriella. Bakterier är så kallade prokaryoter och saknar flera av den eukaryota cellens finesser, som till exempel cellkärna. Den tredje återstående huvudgrenen är desto mer okänd för allmänheten, vilket är konstigt. Dels för den utgör en tredjedel av livets träd, och dels för den är en systergren till den eukaryota gren vi sitter på. Det är den arkéella grenen. Kärlek kan ju fråga bara Romeo och Julia vara alldeles förtärande. Hur det nu än gick till, hamnade den mindre bakterien inne i den större arkén. Men innan den ena hann förgöra den andra, hände något. Arkéer är, liksom bakterier, prokaryoter och de är fullständigt fascinerande. Fram till sent 70-tal visste vi inte ens att de fanns, eller snarare, att de var vad de var. För det som forskare trodde var bakterier som levde i extrema miljöer som kokande svavelkällor, frätande syra eller exceptionella saltkoncentrationer visade sig vara en helt egen livsform, och utgjorde alltså en helt egen huvudgren på livets träd. En tredjedel av livet på jorden hade gömt sig mitt framför näsan på oss. Och nu pekar allt fler bevis på att den eukaryota cellen den som vi är uppbyggda av ursprungligen var en arké. Allt går tillbaka till den där kritiska dagen för 2 miljarder år sen. Då existerade endast encelligt liv. Enligt den så kallade endosymbiontteorin, som det råder stor konsensus om bland biologer, skedde då följande: två encelliga organismer möttes. Den ena var en bakterie och som nämnts tyder mycket på att den andra var en arké. Det verkar sedan som att arkén försökte äta sin nya bekantskap, eller om bakterien försökte parasitera på arkén. Kärlek kan ju fråga bara Romeo och Julia vara alldeles förtärande. Hur det nu än gick till, hamnade den mindre bakterien inne i den större arkén. Men innan den ena hann förgöra den andra, hände något. De två prokaryota cellerna började av någon anledning att samarbeta. Bakterien, som nu bodde inne i arkén, fokuserade på att alstra energi. Arkén kunde då släppa den mödosamma processen, och dirigera om sina resurser till att göra allt det andra som behövs för att föröka sig. Varje gång arkén delade sig, tog varje dottercell några inneboende bakterier med sig, som alltså hade vuxit till sig inne i arkén under tiden. Och på så vis fortgick samarbetet. Allt eftersom generationer kom och gick, började bakterien flytta mer och mer av sitt DNA till arkéns genom. Och arkén fortsatte förse bakterien med allt den behövde i utbyte mot energi. Till slut blev bakterien en del av arkécellen, en cellorganell, det vi idag kallar mitokondrien, cellens energikraftverk. Och vips så hade den moderna eukaryota cellen uppstått. En supercell med superkrafter. Men utvecklingssagan slutade inte där. Kärlekshistorier brukar ju inte sällan involvera en tredje part. Efter ett par 100 miljoner år träffade en av den ursprungliga eukaryota cellens ättlingar på en fotosyntetiserande cyanobakterie. Utan att kunna motstå denna gröna skönhet, svalde den helt sonika bakterien. Symbiogenes, det vill säga sammansmältningen av två samarbetande organismer, skedde därefter framgångsrikt för andra gången i världshistorien: cyanobakterien degenererade nämligen med tiden till den fotosyntetiserande cellorganellen kloroplast, och den pimpade cellen blev alla växters anfader. Men vad är då den stora konsekvensen av dessa passionerade möten? Jo, av anledningar som inte är helt klarlagda, har komplexa multicellulära organismer, som växter och djur, endast uppstått bland eukarya. Multicellularitet innebär är att ett stort antal genetiskt identiska celler tillsammans bildar en större organism. Du själv var från början en enda cell, ett embryo, innan den delade sig i miljarder kopior. Alla celler i din kropp, vare sig om det är muskelceller, njurceller eller vita blodkroppar, är genetiskt identiska dubbletter. Men de har gått ihop och skapat ett nätverk. Och trots att de alla ursprungligen har identiska kapaciteter utför cellerna endast specialistfunktioner. Ett gäng har specialiserats till musklerceller, ett gäng till njurceller, och ett gäng till immunceller. Genom att alla celler slipper göra allt själva kan de avsätta större resurser till sina spetskompetenser och skapa avancerade vävnader. Komplexitet uppstår ur denna specialisering. Romeo hade i sin tur begått självmord då han felaktigt trodde att Julia hade dött. Hängivenheten mellan det mikrobiella paret i vår historia är lika häftig. Den här sortens avancerad samarbete har prokaryoter aldrig klarat av att åstadkomma under de miljarder år de funnits. Anledningen till att tulpanerna på ditt bord, katten i ditt knä, granen i skogen, och människorna på din gata kan finnas, är att en arké och en bakterie för 2 miljarder år sen började samarbeta istället för att äta upp varandra. Vi komplexa organismer har endosymbiogenesen att tacka för vår existens. Ett möte mot alla odds, som skapade den värld vi känner. När Shakespeares Julia i slutet av pjäsen upptäcker att Romeo dött tar hon sitt liv, för hon inte förmår att leva utan honom. Romeo hade i sin tur begått självmord då han felaktigt trodde att Julia hade dött. Hängivenheten mellan det mikrobiella paret i vår historia är lika häftig. Cellens energikraftverk mitokondrien kan efter alla dessa år inte längre leva utanför cellen, och cellen inte överleva utan mitokondrien. Det verkar som de starkaste band skapas när oförenliga par förenas. Farshid Jalalvand, skribent och forskare i klinisk mikrobiologi Vidare läsning Buttery, S. 2017.

The last few years have seen Volvox rightfully come of age on the international scene. The self-styled “techno disciple” has been shaping and driving the Brooklyn underground ever since moving to NYC from Boston in 2011, but has been hosting events and laying down tough sets for more than a decade. A couple of residencies in that time have seen her push both an acid house sound and a harder techno outlook while she is now at home everywhere from De School to Berghain. In this searing 80 minute selection, Volvox tears through a range of electro sounds that race along with a high speed funk. Form punchy bass driven jams to visceral industrial and on to a sci-fi future, it’s a brilliantly widescreen but cohesive overview of a genre that is made for dancing.
Kicking off the first episode in Berlin with the multitalented Reece Cox aka F1k. We talked about post-party skincare, spragel season in Berlin, and tried out some sheet masks before going back to back on a funky little mix featuring some unreleased tracks from F1k's forthcoming album and some new tunes from some of my favorites including Nathan Micay, Volvox, and VTSS. Hope you enjoy, and don't forget to moisturize! Products used this episode: DHC Deep Cleansing Oil, Mario Badescu Botanical Exfoliating Scrub, Brooklyn Grooming Pilgrim's Blue Velvet Facial Serum, sheet masks from The Saem, Glossier Priming Moisturizer.

Människans tillvaro hänger antagligen samman med en två miljarder år gammal passion mellan en bakterie och en arké. Mikrobiologen Farshid Jalalvand funderar över uppkomsten av livet som vi känner det. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Är hon en Capulet?! O Gud, mitt liv är då en oväns rätt! Det utbrister Shakespeares Romeo när han får reda på vem tjejen han kärat ner sig i är. Julia, är av huset Capulet, arvfiender till familjen Montague, huset Romeo tillhör. Paret är oförenliga av börd, men ändå uppslukade av varandra, som genom en naturkraft. Det som inte kunde vara, blir. För cirka 2 miljarder år sedan, långt innan människor eller ens multicellulärt liv existerade, inträffade en liknande händelse en händelse som kom att drastiskt förändra jordens historia. Två individer, från livets två olika, oförenliga grenar, träffades någonstans ute i en de stora oceanerna. Efter en kyss, bjöd den mer sofistikerade den enklare och ivrigare parten in till sig. Och så inleddes ett äktenskap som varat i 2 miljarder år och som evolutionärt är en av de mest lyckade sammankomsterna i livets historia. De två individerna som gifte sig, där ute i havet, för eoner sen, lever kvar än idag, bland annat genom dig. Du är en direkt ättling till den där eukaryota cellen. Livet på jorden är vetenskapligt indelat i tre huvudgrenar. Och ingen av dem är djur eller växter, som många skulle kunna tro. Faktum är att om man granskar släktskapet mellan alla organismer på jorden är djur och växter bara två små intilliggande kvistar på en gren av livets stora träd. Det betyder att en katt och en gran är relativt närbesläktade, jämfört med allt annat som finns där ute. Huvudgrenen som den kvisten sitter på, och som samlar såväl människor som hårlösa marsvin, olivträd, flugsvampar och amöbor, är de eukaryota cellernas rike. Dessa celler har en DNA-skyddande cellkärna, en mer komplicerad cellarkitektur och mer avancerade förmågor än cellerna på den andra grenen på livets träd den bakteriella. Bakterier är så kallade prokaryoter och saknar flera av den eukaryota cellens finesser, som till exempel cellkärna. Den tredje återstående huvudgrenen är desto mer okänd för allmänheten, vilket är konstigt. Dels för den utgör en tredjedel av livets träd, och dels för den är en systergren till den eukaryota gren vi sitter på. Det är den arkéella grenen. Kärlek kan ju fråga bara Romeo och Julia vara alldeles förtärande. Hur det nu än gick till, hamnade den mindre bakterien inne i den större arkén. Men innan den ena hann förgöra den andra, hände något. Arkéer är, liksom bakterier, prokaryoter och de är fullständigt fascinerande. Fram till sent 70-tal visste vi inte ens att de fanns, eller snarare, att de var vad de var. För det som forskare trodde var bakterier som levde i extrema miljöer som kokande svavelkällor, frätande syra eller exceptionella saltkoncentrationer visade sig vara en helt egen livsform, och utgjorde alltså en helt egen huvudgren på livets träd.

»The events in Orlando combined with some personal situations that I have been grappling with have all gone in to make a very intense, sometimes eclectic and even violent mix that expresses a lot of the frustrations myself and people around the world are grappling with.« [Volvox, June 2016] Last autumn we came across the »Live at LeBain« recording by Brooklyn based DJ Volvox (@volvox). The energy of her jackin’ powerful acid flavored house and techno sound caught us straight away so we asked her for a contribution to our mixtape series. The past months were packed with highlights for the Discwoman (@discwoman) member: Brazil tour, Mexico tour, podcast for RBMA (@redbullmusicacademy)incl. a great interview/portrait you should read, debut appearance on Boiler Room (@platform) - quite an impressive chain of events. She also left notable marks in New York City as co-host of the monthly JACK DEPT. (@jackdeptnyc) parties at Bossa Nova Civic Club (@bossanovacivicclub) and resident DJ at UNTER, NYC’s »best after-hours party« (Grub Street Magazine). In July/August we finally get a chance to see her live in the DJ booth as she heads over to Berlin and tours the EU. _ info _ WEB _ http://djvolvox.com FB _ https://facebook.com/Volvox-105641190919/ Discwoman _ http://discwoman.com JACK DEPT.

Researchers have captured the first 3D video of a living algal embryo turning itself inside out, from a sphere to a mushroom shape and back again. The results could help unravel the mechanical processes at work during a similar process in animals, which has been called the “most important time in your life.” Read more at: http://www.cam.ac.uk/research/news/upside-down-and-inside-out
The Overcontrol of Evolution (730.1) 65:0.1 BASIC evolutionary material life — premind life — is the formulation of the Master Physical Controllers and the life-impartation ministry of the Seven Master Spirits in conjunction with the active ministration of the ordained Life Carriers. As a result of the co-ordinate function of this threefold creativity there develops organismal physical capacity for mind — material mechanisms for intelligent reaction to external environmental stimuli and, later on, to internal stimuli, influences taking origin in the organismal mind itself. (730.2) 65:0.2 There are, then, three distinct levels of life production and evolution: (730.3) 65:0.3 1. The physical-energy domain — mind-capacity production. (730.4) 65:0.4 2. The mind ministry of the adjutant spirits — impinging upon spirit capacity. (730.5) 65:0.5 3. The spirit endowment of mortal mind — culminating in Thought Adjuster bestowal. (730.6) 65:0.6 The mechanical-nonteachable levels of organismal environmental response are the domains of the physical controllers. The adjutant mind-spirits activate and regulate the adaptative or nonmechanical-teachable types of mind — those response mechanisms of organisms capable of learning from experience. And as the spirit adjutants thus manipulate mind potentials, so do the Life Carriers exercise considerable discretionary control over the environmental aspects of evolutionary processes right up to the time of the appearance of human will — the ability to know God and the power of choosing to worship him. (730.7) 65:0.7 It is the integrated functioning of the Life Carriers, the physical controllers, and the spirit adjutants that conditions the course of organic evolution on the inhabited worlds. And this is why evolution — on Urantia or elsewhere — is always purposeful and never accidental. 1. Life Carrier Functions (730.8) 65:1.1 The Life Carriers are endowed with potentials of personality metamorphosis which but few orders of creatures possess. These Sons of the local universe are capable of functioning in three diverse phases of being. They ordinarily perform their duties as mid-phase Sons, that being the state of their origin. But a Life Carrier in such a stage of existence could not possibly function in the electrochemical domains as a fabricator of physical energies and material particles into units of living existence. (730.9) 65:1.2 Life Carriers are able to function and do function on the following three levels: (730.10) 65:1.3 1. The physical level of electrochemistry. (730.11) 65:1.4 2. The usual mid-phase of quasi-morontial existence. (730.12) 65:1.5 3. The advanced semispiritual level. (731.1) 65:1.6 When the Life Carriers make ready to engage in life implantation, and after they have selected the sites for such an undertaking, they summon the archangel commission of Life Carrier transmutation. This group consists of ten orders of diverse personalities, including the physical controllers and their associates, and is presided over by the chief of archangels, who acts in this capacity by the mandate of Gabriel and with the permission of the Ancients of Days. When these beings are properly encircuited, they can effect such modifications in the Life Carriers as will enable them immediately to function on the physical levels of electrochemistry. (731.2) 65:1.7 After the life patterns have been formulated and the material organizations have been duly completed, the supermaterial forces concerned in life propagation become forthwith active, and life is existent. Whereupon the Life Carriers are immediately returned to their normal mid-phase of personality existence, in which estate they can manipulate the living units and maneuver the evolving organisms, even though they are shorn of all ability to organize — create — new patterns of living matter. (731.3) 65:1.8 After organic evolution has run a certain course and free will of the human type has appeared in the highest evolving organisms, the Life Carriers must either leave the planet or take renunciation vows; that is, they must pledge themselves to refrain from all attempts further to influence the course of organic evolution. And when such vows are voluntarily taken by those Life Carriers who choose to remain on the planet as future advisers to those who shall be intrusted with the fostering of the newly evolved will creatures, there is summoned a commission of twelve, presided over by the chief of the Evening Stars, acting by authority of the System Sovereign and with permission of Gabriel; and forthwith these Life Carriers are transmuted to the third phase of personality existence — the semispiritual level of being. And I have functioned on Urantia in this third phase of existence ever since the times of Andon and Fonta. (731.4) 65:1.9 We look forward to a time when the universe may be settled in light and life, to a possible fourth stage of being wherein we shall be wholly spiritual, but it has never been revealed to us by what technique we may attain this desirable and advanced estate. 2. The Evolutionary Panorama (731.5) 65:2.1 The story of man’s ascent from seaweed to the lordship of earthly creation is indeed a romance of biologic struggle and mind survival. Man’s primordial ancestors were literally the slime and ooze of the ocean bed in the sluggish and warm-water bays and lagoons of the vast shore lines of the ancient inland seas, those very waters in which the Life Carriers established the three independent life implantations on Urantia. (731.6) 65:2.2 Very few species of the early types of marine vegetation that participated in those epochal changes which resulted in the animallike borderland organisms are in existence today. The sponges are the survivors of one of these early midway types, those organisms through which the gradual transition from the vegetable to the animal took place. These early transition forms, while not identical with modern sponges, were much like them; they were true borderline organisms — neither vegetable nor animal — but they eventually led to the development of the true animal forms of life. (732.1) 65:2.3 The bacteria, simple vegetable organisms of a very primitive nature, are very little changed from the early dawn of life; they even exhibit a degree of retrogression in their parasitic behavior. Many of the fungi also represent a retrograde movement in evolution, being plants which have lost their chlorophyll-making ability and have become more or less parasitic. The majority of disease-causing bacteria and their auxiliary virus bodies really belong to this group of renegade parasitic fungi. During the intervening ages all of the vast kingdom of plant life has evolved from ancestors from which the bacteria have also descended. (732.2) 65:2.4 The higher protozoan type of animal life soon appeared, and appeared suddenly. And from these far-distant times the ameba, the typical single-celled animal organism, has come on down but little modified. He disports himself today much as he did when he was the last and greatest achievement in life evolution. This minute creature and his protozoan cousins are to the animal creation what bacteria are to the plant kingdom; they represent the survival of the first early evolutionary steps in life differentiation together with failure of subsequent development. (732.3) 65:2.5 Before long the early single-celled animal types associated themselves in communities, first on the plan of the Volvox and presently along the lines of the Hydra and jellyfish. Still later there evolved the starfish, stone lilies, sea urchins, sea cucumbers, centipedes, insects, spiders, crustaceans, and the closely related groups of earthworms and leeches, soon followed by the mollusks — the oyster, octopus, and snail. Hundreds upon hundreds of species intervened and perished; mention is made only of those which survived the long, long struggle. Such nonprogressive specimens, together with the later appearing fish family, today represent the stationary types of early and lower animals, branches of the tree of life which failed to progress. (732.4) 65:2.6 The stage was thus set for the appearance of the first backboned animals, the fishes. From this fish family there sprang two unique modifications, the frog and the salamander. And it was the frog which began that series of progressive differentiations in animal life that finally culminated in man himself. (732.5) 65:2.7 The frog is one of the earliest of surviving human-race ancestors, but it also failed to progress, persisting today much as in those remote times. The frog is the only species ancestor of the early dawn races now living on the face of the earth. The human race has no surviving ancestry between the frog and the Eskimo. (732.6) 65:2.8 The frogs gave rise to the Reptilia, a great animal family which is virtually extinct, but which, before passing out of existence, gave origin to the whole bird family and the numerous orders of mammals. (732.7) 65:2.9 Probably the greatest single leap of all prehuman evolution was executed when the reptile became a bird. The bird types of today — eagles, ducks, pigeons, and ostriches — all descended from the enormous reptiles of long, long ago. (732.8) 65:2.10 The kingdom of reptiles, descended from the frog family, is today represented by four surviving divisions: two nonprogressive, snakes and lizards, together with their cousins, alligators and turtles; one partially progressive, the bird family, and the fourth, the ancestors of mammals and the direct line of descent of the human species. But though long departed, the massiveness of the passing Reptilia found echo in the elephant and mastodon, while their peculiar forms were perpetuated in the leaping kangaroos. (733.1) 65:2.11 Only fourteen phyla have appeared on Urantia, the fishes being the last, and no new classes have developed since birds and mammals. (733.2) 65:2.12 It was from an agile little reptilian dinosaur of carnivorous habits but having a comparatively large brain that the placental mammals suddenly sprang. These mammals developed rapidly and in many different ways, not only giving rise to the common modern varieties but also evolving into marine types, such as whales and seals, and into air navigators like the bat family. (733.3) 65:2.13 Man thus evolved from the higher mammals derived principally from the western implantation of life in the ancient east-west sheltered seas. The eastern and central groups of living organisms were early progressing favorably toward the attainment of prehuman levels of animal existence. But as the ages passed, the eastern focus of life emplacement failed to attain a satisfactory level of intelligent prehuman status, having suffered such repeated and irretrievable losses of its highest types of germ plasm that it was forever shorn of the power to rehabilitate human potentialities. (733.4) 65:2.14 Since the quality of the mind capacity for development in this eastern group was so definitely inferior to that of the other two groups, the Life Carriers, with the consent of their superiors, so manipulated the environment as further to circumscribe these inferior prehuman strains of evolving life. To all outward appearances the elimination of these inferior groups of creatures was accidental, but in reality it was altogether purposeful. (733.5) 65:2.15 Later in the evolutionary unfolding of intelligence, the lemur ancestors of the human species were far more advanced in North America than in other regions; and they were therefore led to migrate from the arena of western life implantation over the Bering land bridge and down the coast to southwestern Asia, where they continued to evolve and to benefit by the addition of certain strains of the central life group. Man thus evolved out of certain western and central life strains but in the central to near-eastern regions. (733.6) 65:2.16 In this way the life that was planted on Urantia evolved until the ice age, when man himself first appeared and began his eventful planetary career. And this appearance of primitive man on earth during the ice age was not just an accident; it was by design. The rigors and climatic severity of the glacial era were in every way adapted to the purpose of fostering the production of a hardy type of human being with tremendous survival endowment. 3. The Fostering of Evolution (733.7) 65:3.1 It will hardly be possible to explain to the present-day human mind many of the queer and apparently grotesque occurrences of early evolutionary progress. A purposeful plan was functioning throughout all of these seemingly strange evolutions of living things, but we are not allowed arbitrarily to interfere with the development of the life patterns after they have once been set in operation. (733.8) 65:3.2 Life Carriers may employ every possible natural resource and may utilize any and all fortuitous circumstances which will enhance the developmental progress of the life experiment, but we are not permitted mechanically to intervene in, or arbitrarily to manipulate the conduct and course of, either plant or animal evolution. (733.9) 65:3.3 You have been informed that Urantia mortals evolved by way of primitive frog development, and that this ascending strain, carried in potential in a single frog, narrowly escaped extinction on a certain occasion. But it should not be inferred that the evolution of mankind would have been terminated by an accident at this juncture. At that very moment we were observing and fostering no less than one thousand different and remotely situated mutating strains of life which could have been directed into various different patterns of prehuman development. This particular ancestral frog represented our third selection, the two prior life strains having perished in spite of all our efforts toward their conservation. (734.1) 65:3.4 Even the loss of Andon and Fonta before they had offspring, though delaying human evolution, would not have prevented it. Subsequent to the appearance of Andon and Fonta and before the mutating human potentials of animal life were exhausted, there evolved no less than seven thousand favorable strains which could have achieved some sort of human type of development. And many of these better stocks were subsequently assimilated by the various branches of the expanding human species. (734.2) 65:3.5 Long before the Material Son and Daughter, the biologic uplifters, arrive on a planet, the human potentials of the evolving animal species have been exhausted. This biologic status of animal life is disclosed to the Life Carriers by the phenomenon of the third phase of adjutant spirit mobilization, which automatically occurs concomitantly with the exhaustion of the capacity of all animal life to give origin to the mutant potentials of prehuman individuals. (734.3) 65:3.6 Mankind on Urantia must solve its problems of mortal development with the human stocks it has — no more races will evolve from prehuman sources throughout all future time. But this fact does not preclude the possibility of the attainment of vastly higher levels of human development through the intelligent fostering of the evolutionary potentials still resident in the mortal races. That which we, the Life Carriers, do toward fostering and conserving the life strains before the appearance of human will, man must do for himself after such an event and subsequent to our retirement from active participation in evolution. In a general way, man’s evolutionary destiny is in his own hands, and scientific intelligence must sooner or later supersede the random functioning of uncontrolled natural selection and chance survival. (734.4) 65:3.7 And in discussing the fostering of evolution, it would not be amiss to point out that, in the long future ahead, when you may sometime be attached to a corps of Life Carriers, you will have abundant and ample opportunity to offer suggestions and make any possible improvements in the plans and technique of life management and transplantation. Be patient! If you have good ideas, if your minds are fertile with better methods of administration for any part of the universal domains, you are certainly going to have an opportunity to present them to your associates and fellow administrators in the ages to come. 4. The Urantia Adventure (734.5) 65:4.1 Do not overlook the fact that Urantia was assigned to us as a life-experiment world. On this planet we made our sixtieth attempt to modify and, if possible, improve the Satania adaptation of the Nebadon life designs, and it is of record that we achieved numerous beneficial modifications of the standard life patterns. To be specific, on Urantia we worked out and have satisfactorily demonstrated not less than twenty-eight features of life modification which will be of service to all Nebadon throughout all future time. (735.1) 65:4.2 But the establishment of life on no world is ever experimental in the sense that something untried and unknown is attempted. The evolution of life is a technique ever progressive, differential, and variable, but never haphazard, uncontrolled, nor wholly experimental, in the accidental sense. (735.2) 65:4.3 Many features of human life afford abundant evidence that the phenomenon of mortal existence was intelligently planned, that organic evolution is not a mere cosmic accident. When a living cell is injured, it possesses the ability to elaborate certain chemical substances which are empowered so to stimulate and activate the neighboring normal cells that they immediately begin the secretion of certain substances which facilitate healing processes in the wound; and at the same time these normal and uninjured cells begin to proliferate — they actually start to work creating new cells to replace any fellow cells which may have been destroyed by the accident. (735.3) 65:4.4 This chemical action and reaction concerned in wound healing and cell reproduction represents the choice of the Life Carriers of a formula embracing over one hundred thousand phases and features of possible chemical reactions and biologic repercussions. More than half a million specific experiments were made by the Life Carriers in their laboratories before they finally settled upon this formula for the Urantia life experiment. (735.4) 65:4.5 When Urantia scientists know more of these healing chemicals, they will become more efficient in the treatment of injuries, and indirectly they will know more about controlling certain serious diseases. (735.5) 65:4.6 Since life was established on Urantia, the Life Carriers have improved this healing technique as it has been introduced on another Satania world, in that it affords more pain relief and exercises better control over the proliferation capacity of the associated normal cells. (735.6) 65:4.7 There were many unique features of the Urantia life experiment, but the two outstanding episodes were the appearance of the Andonic race prior to the evolution of the six colored peoples and the later simultaneous appearance of the Sangik mutants in a single family. Urantia is the first world in Satania where the six colored races sprang from the same human family. They ordinarily arise in diversified strains from independent mutations within the prehuman animal stock and usually appear on earth one at a time and successively over long periods of time, beginning with the red man and passing on down through the colors to indigo. (735.7) 65:4.8 Another outstanding variation of procedure was the late arrival of the Planetary Prince. As a rule, the prince appears on a planet about the time of will development; and if such a plan had been followed, Caligastia might have come to Urantia even during the lifetimes of Andon and Fonta instead of almost five hundred thousand years later, simultaneously with the appearance of the six Sangik races. (735.8) 65:4.9 On an ordinary inhabited world a Planetary Prince would have been granted on the request of the Life Carriers at, or sometime after, the appearance of Andon and Fonta. But Urantia having been designated a life-modification planet, it was by preagreement that the Melchizedek observers, twelve in number, were sent as advisers to the Life Carriers and as overseers of the planet until the subsequent arrival of the Planetary Prince. These Melchizedeks came at the time Andon and Fonta made the decisions which enabled Thought Adjusters to indwell their mortal minds. (736.1) 65:4.10 On Urantia the endeavors of the Life Carriers to improve the Satania life patterns necessarily resulted in the production of many apparently useless forms of transition life. But the gains already accrued are sufficient to justify the Urantia modifications of the standard life designs. (736.2) 65:4.11 It was our intention to produce an early manifestation of will in the evolutionary life of Urantia, and we succeeded. Ordinarily, will does not emerge until the colored races have long been in existence, usually first appearing among the superior types of the red man. Your world is the only planet in Satania where the human type of will has appeared in a precolored race. (736.3) 65:4.12 But in our effort to provide for that combination and association of inheritance factors which finally gave rise to the mammalian ancestors of the human race, we were confronted with the necessity of permitting hundreds and thousands of other and comparatively useless combinations and associations of inheritance factors to take place. Many of these seemingly strange by-products of our efforts are certain to meet your gaze as you dig back into the planetary past, and I can well understand how puzzling some of these things must be to the limited human viewpoint. 5. Life-Evolution Vicissitudes (736.4) 65:5.1 It was a source of regret to the Life Carriers that our special efforts to modify intelligent life on Urantia should have been so handicapped by tragic perversions beyond our control: the Caligastia betrayal and the Adamic default. (736.5) 65:5.2 But throughout all of this biologic adventure our greatest disappointment grew out of the reversion of certain primitive plant life to the prechlorophyll levels of parasitic bacteria on such an extensive and unexpected scale. This eventuality in plant-life evolution caused many distressful diseases in the higher mammals, particularly in the more vulnerable human species. When we were confronted with this perplexing situation, we somewhat discounted the difficulties involved because we knew that the subsequent admixture of the Adamic life plasm would so reinforce the resisting powers of the resulting blended race as to make it practically immune to all diseases produced by the vegetable type of organism. But our hopes were doomed to disappointment owing to the misfortune of the Adamic default. (736.6) 65:5.3 The universe of universes, including this small world called Urantia, is not being managed merely to meet our approval nor just to suit our convenience, much less to gratify our whims and satisfy our curiosity. The wise and all-powerful beings who are responsible for universe management undoubtedly know exactly what they are about; and so it becomes Life Carriers and behooves mortal minds to enlist in patient waiting and hearty co-operation with the rule of wisdom, the reign of power, and the march of progress. (736.7) 65:5.4 There are, of course, certain compensations for tribulation, such as Michael’s bestowal on Urantia. But irrespective of all such considerations, the later celestial supervisors of this planet express complete confidence in the ultimate evolutionary triumph of the human race and in the eventual vindication of our original plans and life patterns. 6. Evolutionary Techniques of Life (737.1) 65:6.1 It is impossible accurately to determine, simultaneously, the exact location and the velocity of a moving object; any attempt at measurement of either inevitably involves change in the other. The same sort of a paradox confronts mortal man when he undertakes the chemical analysis of protoplasm. The chemist can elucidate the chemistry of dead protoplasm, but he cannot discern either the physical organization or the dynamic performance of living protoplasm. Ever will the scientist come nearer and nearer the secrets of life, but never will he find them and for no other reason than that he must kill protoplasm in order to analyze it. Dead protoplasm weighs the same as living protoplasm, but it is not the same. (737.2) 65:6.2 There is original endowment of adaptation in living things and beings. In every living plant or animal cell, in every living organism — material or spiritual — there is an insatiable craving for the attainment of ever-increasing perfection of environmental adjustment, organismal adaptation, and augmented life realization. These interminable efforts of all living things evidence the existence within them of an innate striving for perfection. (737.3) 65:6.3 The most important step in plant evolution was the development of chlorophyll-making ability, and the second greatest advance was the evolution of the spore into the complex seed. The spore is most efficient as a reproductive agent, but it lacks the potentials of variety and versatility inherent in the seed. (737.4) 65:6.4 One of the most serviceable and complex episodes in the evolution of the higher types of animals consisted in the development of the ability of the iron in the circulating blood cells to perform in the double role of oxygen carrier and carbon dioxide remover. And this performance of the red blood cells illustrates how evolving organisms are able to adapt their functions to varying or changing environment. The higher animals, including man, oxygenate their tissues by the action of the iron of the red blood cells, which carries oxygen to the living cells and just as efficiently removes the carbon dioxide. But other metals can be made to serve the same purpose. The cuttlefish employs copper for this function, and the sea squirt utilizes vanadium. (737.5) 65:6.5 The continuation of such biologic adjustments is illustrated by the evolution of teeth in the higher Urantia mammals; these attained to thirty-six in man’s remote ancestors, and then began an adaptative readjustment toward thirty-two in the dawn man and his near relatives. Now the human species is slowly gravitating toward twenty-eight. The process of evolution is still actively and adaptatively in progress on this planet. (737.6) 65:6.6 But many seemingly mysterious adjustments of living organisms are purely chemical, wholly physical. At any moment of time, in the blood stream of any human being there exists the possibility of upward of 15,000,000 chemical reactions between the hormone output of a dozen ductless glands. (737.7) 65:6.7 The lower forms of plant life are wholly responsive to physical, chemical, and electrical environment. But as the scale of life ascends, one by one the mind ministries of the seven adjutant spirits become operative, and the mind becomes increasingly adjustive, creative, co-ordinative, and dominative. The ability of animals to adapt themselves to air, water, and land is not a supernatural endowment, but it is a superphysical adjustment. (738.1) 65:6.8 Physics and chemistry alone cannot explain how a human being evolved out of the primeval protoplasm of the early seas. The ability to learn, memory and differential response to environment, is the endowment of mind. The laws of physics are not responsive to training; they are immutable and unchanging. The reactions of chemistry are not modified by education; they are uniform and dependable. Aside from the presence of the Unqualified Absolute, electrical and chemical reactions are predictable. But mind can profit from experience, can learn from reactive habits of behavior in response to repetition of stimuli. (738.2) 65:6.9 Preintelligent organisms react to environmental stimuli, but those organisms which are reactive to mind ministry can adjust and manipulate the environment itself. (738.3) 65:6.10 The physical brain with its associated nervous system possesses innate capacity for response to mind ministry just as the developing mind of a personality possesses a certain innate capacity for spirit receptivity and therefore contains the potentials of spiritual progress and attainment. Intellectual, social, moral, and spiritual evolution are dependent on the mind ministry of the seven adjutant spirits and their superphysical associates. 7. Evolutionary Mind Levels (738.4) 65:7.1 The seven adjutant mind-spirits are the versatile mind ministers to the lower intelligent existences of a local universe. This order of mind is ministered from the local universe headquarters or from some world connected therewith, but there is influential direction of lower-mind function from the system capitals. (738.5) 65:7.2 On an evolutionary world much, very much, depends on the work of these seven adjutants. But they are mind ministers; they are not concerned in physical evolution, the domain of the Life Carriers. Nevertheless, the perfect integration of these spirit endowments with the ordained and natural procedure of the unfolding and inherent regime of the Life Carriers is responsible for the mortal inability to discern, in the phenomenon of mind, aught but the hand of nature and the outworking of natural processes, albeit you are occasionally somewhat perplexed in explaining all of everything connected with the natural reactions of mind as it is associated with matter. And if Urantia were operating more in accordance with the original plans, you would observe even less to arrest your attention in the phenomenon of mind. (738.6) 65:7.3 The seven adjutant spirits are more circuitlike than entitylike, and on ordinary worlds they are encircuited with other adjutant functionings throughout the local universe. On life-experiment planets, however, they are relatively isolated. And on Urantia, owing to the unique nature of the life patterns, the lower adjutants experienced far more difficulty in contacting with the evolutionary organisms than would have been the case in a more standardized type of life endowment. (738.7) 65:7.4 Again, on an average evolutionary world the seven adjutant spirits are far better synchronized with the advancing stages of animal development than they were on Urantia. With but a single exception, the adjutants experienced the greatest difficulty in contacting with the evolving minds of Urantia organisms that they had ever had in all their functioning throughout the universe of Nebadon. On this world there developed many forms of border phenomena — confusional combinations of the mechanical-nonteachable and the nonmechanical-teachable types of organismal response. (739.1) 65:7.5 The seven adjutant spirits do not make contact with the purely mechanical orders of organismal environmental response. Such preintelligent responses of living organisms pertain purely to the energy domains of the power centers, the physical controllers, and their associates. (739.2) 65:7.6 The acquisition of the potential of the ability to learn from experience marks the beginning of the functioning of the adjutant spirits, and they function from the lowliest minds of primitive and invisible existences up to the highest types in the evolutionary scale of human beings. They are the source and pattern for the otherwise more or less mysterious behavior and incompletely understood quick reactions of mind to the material environment. Long must these faithful and always dependable influences carry forward their preliminary ministry before the animal mind attains the human levels of spirit receptivity. (739.3) 65:7.7 The adjutants function exclusively in the evolution of experiencing mind up to the level of the sixth phase, the spirit of worship. At this level there occurs that inevitable overlapping of ministry — the phenomenon of the higher reaching down to co-ordinate with the lower in anticipation of subsequent attainment of advanced levels of development. And still additional spirit ministry accompanies the action of the seventh and last adjutant, the spirit of wisdom. Throughout the ministry of the spirit world the individual never experiences abrupt transitions of spirit co-operation; always are these changes gradual and reciprocal. (739.4) 65:7.8 Always should the domains of the physical (electrochemical) and the mental response to environmental stimuli be differentiated, and in turn must they all be recognized as phenomena apart from spiritual activities. The domains of physical, mental, and spiritual gravity are distinct realms of cosmic reality, notwithstanding their intimate interrelations. 8. Evolution in Time and Space (739.5) 65:8.1 Time and space are indissolubly linked; there is an innate association. The delays of time are inevitable in the presence of certain space conditions. (739.6) 65:8.2 If spending so much time in effecting the evolutionary changes of life development occasions perplexity, I would say that we cannot time the life processes to unfold any faster than the physical metamorphoses of a planet will permit. We must wait upon the natural, physical development of a planet; we have absolutely no control over geologic evolution. If the physical conditions would allow, we could arrange for the completed evolution of life in considerably less than one million years. But we are all under the jurisdiction of the Supreme Rulers of Paradise, and time is nonexistent on Paradise. (739.7) 65:8.3 The individual’s yardstick for time measurement is the length of his life. All creatures are thus time conditioned, and therefore do they regard evolution as being a long-drawn-out process. To those of us whose life span is not limited by a temporal existence, evolution does not seem to be such a protracted transaction. On Paradise, where time is nonexistent, these things are all present in the mind of Infinity and the acts of Eternity. (739.8) 65:8.4 As mind evolution is dependent on, and delayed by, the slow development of physical conditions, so is spiritual progress dependent on mental expansion and unfailingly delayed by intellectual retardation. But this does not mean that spiritual evolution is dependent on education, culture, or wisdom. The soul may evolve regardless of mental culture but not in the absence of mental capacity and desire — the choice of survival and the decision to achieve ever-increasing perfection — to do the will of the Father in heaven. Although survival may not depend on the possession of knowledge and wisdom, progression most certainly does. (740.1) 65:8.5 In the cosmic evolutionary laboratories mind is always dominant over matter, and spirit is ever correlated with mind. Failure of these diverse endowments to synchronize and co-ordinate may cause time delays, but if the individual really knows God and desires to find him and become like him, then survival is assured regardless of the handicaps of time. Physical status may handicap mind, and mental perversity may delay spiritual attainment, but none of these obstacles can defeat the whole-souled choice of will. (740.2) 65:8.6 When physical conditions are ripe, sudden mental evolutions may take place; when mind status is propitious, sudden spiritual transformations may occur; when spiritual values receive proper recognition, then cosmic meanings become discernible, and increasingly the personality is released from the handicaps of time and delivered from the limitations of space.
