Urantia Paper 12—The Universe of Universes—§9. Personal Realities

This week on The Cosmic Citizen we will be finishing Urantia Paper 12, "The Universe of Universes," with a reading of the final section from that paper, Section 9 – Personal Realities.

This section underscores the importance of personality and spirit in understanding and experiencing the universe. 

It emphasizes that spirit is the basic personal reality in the universes and is essential to all experiences involving spiritual reality. Personal realities are interconnected with spiritual growth. Personal and spiritual development are deeply intertwined.

It simply states that "Love is the secret of beneficial association between personalities." Love and empathy are fundamental to forming meaningful and positive relationships and genuine connections. To achieve true understanding and love takes time!

Among other things, it stresses the importance of recognizing the limitations of material science and the need for a broader perspective that includes spiritual realities. It says that an appreciation of the complexity of the universe cannot be fully captured by scientific or mathematical analysis alone.
