Urantia UniversitySelf-Mastery and Circle Attainment
with Michael Hilll
This course is designed to refresh and renew the spiritual aspirations of Urantia Book readers who have by faith, entered the kingdom of God and therein set for themselves the achievement of the fullness of mortal life. Here, we will strive to address the enhancement of personal spiritual perception and the influence of such growth on daily life while sharing our spiritual life with others and recognizing the religious life of others. It is through the conquest of one's psychic circles and the enhancement of Adjuster attunement, that we become of better and more joyful service to our fellows in this world and the next.
The purpose of this course is to provide a forum to focus on how to achieve the many spiritual mandates we’ve been given, pathways to fulfilling them, and the benchmarks we can use in assessing our progress.
Fearlessly Foreword
A Brief Introduction

In this course, we’ll examine the Foreword’s structure and content as informed by its purpose and function, with the goal of enhancing the student’s ability to more effectively assist new and experienced readers alike to better understand and utilize the Foreword.
Understanding a piece of writing–especially revelatory writing–is about more than memorizing the words and dissecting the sentences the author uses; we also are well-served by examining the author’s purpose for the work as a whole as well as for the various elements that comprise it. So as we seek to better understand the Foreword, we’ll continually be asking not only what is on the page, but why it’s there.
We’re going to approach our task of better understanding the Foreword by posing the challenge in this way:
The Foreword isn’t just an artifact from the past that people study, it has an ongoing role in the outworking of the Fifth Epochal Revelation. Is there anything that we can do to enhance its effectiveness in the present? Is there any assistance we can render in the task of accomplishing the goals the Divine Counselor had in mind when he wrote the Foreword. There will be several projects designed to help us focus and clarify our insights by developing practical methods for assisting other readers in their efforts to understand and use the Foreword.
