Causation - the reality domain of the physical senses, the scientific realms of logical uniformity, the differentiation of the factual and the nonfactual, reflective conclusions based on cosmic response.
These responses are self-evident to clear-reasoning and deep-thinking minds. It would be still more correct to say that these supermaterial realities so respond to the mind of the cosmos.ġ6:6.5 The cosmic mind unfailingly responds (recognizes response) on three levels of universe reality. This reality sensitivity of the cosmic mind responds to certain phases of reality just as energy-material responds to gravity.
Human minds are sometimes observed to be running in channels of astonishing similarity and inexplicable agreement.ġ6:6.4 There exists in all personality associations of the cosmic mind a quality which might be denominated the "reality response." It is this universal cosmic endowment of will creatures which saves them from becoming helpless victims of the implied a priori assumptions of science, philosophy, and religion. Not only are kindred spirits attracted to each other, but kindred minds are also very fraternal and inclined towards co-operation the one with the other. Nevertheless these same Master Spirits dominate the basic reactions of all creature mind because they are the actual sources of the intellectual and spiritual potentials which have been specialized in the local universes for function in the lives of those individuals who inhabit the evolutionary worlds of time and space.ġ6:6.3 The fact of the cosmic mind explains the kinship of various types of human and superhuman minds. You live under the immediate influence of the Creative Spirit of Nebadon. This cosmic mind is a subabsolute manifestation of the mind of the Third Source and Center and, in certain ways, is functionally related to the mind of the evolving Supreme Being.ġ6:6.2 On a world like Urantia we do not encounter the direct influence of the Seven Master Spirits in the affairs of the human races. 16:6.1 The Master Spirits are the sevenfold source of the cosmic mind, the intellectual potential of the grand universe.
