Hi! My name is MasSa'Seen. In this life I am from Massa-chussetts (hmm…?). I was given my spiritual cosmic name about 6 months after arriving here at Planetary Sacred Headquarters in May of 1995, at eighteen years of age.

I was not raised in any strong religious persuasion. Both of my parents were strongly averse to institutionalized religion and wanted me to be able to choose my beliefs for myself. We did, however, celebrate some westernized "holi"-days like Christmas and Easter, and some significant holiday experiences were enough to get me thinking about Jesus. Was He real? Did He really come back to life? I remember contemplating on this at about 13-14 years old, and I really wished I could know the answers. I think I decided at that time that I believed His life was real and that He did resurrect.

My parents being pretty open to beliefs that were not widely accepted, I early-on believed I'd had past lives. I spent the early part of this life with some sense of a future destiny. When I was about 16-17, I began to feel strongly that somehow this life was the most significant one I've had yet—somehow a culmination of the rest. I now know what I was sensing was the adjudication by the Bright and Morning Star versus Lucifer which was upstepped on our planet Urantia in 1911 and is of particular importance to my soul, being a fallen "fourth-order" starseed. I began to wake up to the reality of the distortions and evil forces at work on the planet, and to ask key questions that would ultimately lead me here to Planetary Sacred Home:

I always felt I had no future in the system of the dominant culture—and I was quite correct! I felt God was making a plea to my soul to do something about it, to make a difference, to move into my destiny with Him…but how? I knew I was too incompetent and messed up myself to be able to do anything about it. I knew I needed much healing and that I was at a crossroads point of my destiny. I had to act NOW. I realized that no true healing could come to me where I was living, and I had to find out where to go to receive that healing I so desperately needed, and which I'm sure God desperately wanted to give me. I began my faith walk then. I decided that in order to do God's will and ultimately be able to serve this world like I felt meant to, I had to grow and heal. I knew, however, I could not do that at the place and home I was in, so God must have a place He wanted me to go.

I had been receiving many strong and vivid images into my mind and heart of the western part of the United States, with which I already felt a strong connection. I was living in a tipi on a friend's property whose mother was into some "New-agey" practices. She told me that Sedona, Arizona was a very spiritual place, and she prayed once a month or so in synchronized timing with people in Sedona. My friend invited me on a road trip to Sedona, but I did not go, and being caught by the heart-strings, I went to my mother's wedding, even though I felt it was not God's will. (Parents sure have a way of pulling on the heart strings, don't they?).

But still seeking for where to go, at my mother's house I received in a close fervent prayer a vision in a very "other-dimensional way" of a union of souls working in harmony and interdependence with each other, like the spokes of a wheel. The feeling and meaning of this vision were of such higher reality that I knew it was a gift from God. My mind could not have come up with anything like it at the time because I had never ever experienced anything like that in this life. I also found The URANTIA Book in my mother's house for the second time. (The first time it scared me so much I closed it, saying "I'm not ready for this yet.") This time I could not put it down. I found in it a true well of spiritual food and nourishment for my soul that was just what I had been searching for. During the past few months I'd felt the incessant urge that there was an important book I had to find. I even made trips into New York City to antique book stores I thought would have special books, not realizing that it was practically right under my nose.

I read The URANTIA Book all day long for a week or so, walking around town. I read mostly from "The Jesus Papers." It brought such peace and comfort to my soul, seeing the love with which Christ Michael treated others during his life in the flesh as Jesus of Nazareth. I was inspired, and more and more I wanted to live a spiritualized life, to treat others with the same love and care that Jesus/Christ Michael had.

After the wedding, during another prayer, I asked God if I should go to Arizona where my friend was. It rang in my soul, clear as a frying pan on the head—"if you don't go now, you'll never go". I took an airplane straight to Arizona and met up with my friend in Prescott, staying in a tent near the mountain Thumb Butte. I kept being urged onward and took his car for a day to Sedona, where I serendipitously met a man named Tarenta in a food store…

…I was on airport mesa, overlooking Sedona, reflecting on how strangely peaceful I felt for having left everything I'd ever known to follow a dream. I was getting hungry, so I drove to town where I walked into the only health-foods store in town at that time. I'd been looking for a pair of moccasins for awhile. I wanted some shoes to complement my new spiritual walk, and to get more away from the mainstream. I walked into this store and directly in front of me was Tarenta, wearing a beautiful pair of custom hand-crafted moccasins. I asked him about them, and he told me that he made moccasins for people, and he could fit me, etc. Just standing near him I already could tell that he was somehow different from any person I'd ever met. The word that came to mind was "balanced". I said to myself, "he is the most balanced man I've ever met." (Nine years later, I can still say that was the truth.) I opened up to him, telling him I was looking for spiritual healing, etc…, and discovered that he was a part of a spiritual community. The rest is history.

I fell into relativity "a long time ago, in a universe far, far away." I took the "all roads lead to the same path" path for a long time. In this life as well, I felt that way and espoused it to others, as well as the unreal relative thinking that there is no evil. I was so, so wrong. Since then, I have found through experience that this type of thinking is not compatible with living in the perfect will of God. We must practice tolerance towards each other, for all of our wonderful and beautiful differences, but God does have a destiny for each of us, and it is a very narrow tightrope walk (not to be confused with narrow-mindedness) to be taken seriously above all things. We each as well as everyone around us pay a price for each decision we make that is not the highest choice. Through Fifth and Continuing Fifth Epochal Revelation ( The URANTIA Book and The Cosmic Family volumes), I am learning that no man or woman can escape the destiny of their choices and actions. We must put God first, above what we feel like doing. I struggle daily to do this. This is not a time for doing what feels good, or easy, or even what may seem right but isn't. Now it is the time for outstanding service and outstanding loyalty for "impossible" changes to be made possible, for "unachievable" goals to be achieved. I know it first must happen within our own lives, hearts, and souls.

I have struggled with many many evils inside myself, and I will continue to do so until, with God, I can get them all out of me. I am sure that there are many I do not even know of yet, because God is so graceful and loving and kind, He shows them to me when He knows I can overcome them. I have dealt with much pride and self-righteousness, as well as prejudice, ingratitude, irresponsibility, and selfishness within myself. It is always a painful, uncomfortable, and embarrassing thing to realize when I've treated others poorly, acting in any of these "dio" (evil) habits, but what a very wonderful thing to realize and see yourself, and others also, becoming more pure, healthy, and whole!

I think that probably the best way to determine another's godliness is to watch their actions and how they relate with others. That is why I stayed here after I first was led to Divine Administration. In all I have seen and heard and witnessed here, in all of my elders I have seen and experienced the fruits of our Creator—love, peace, patience, kindness, selfless service, long-suffering, and putting others first. The degree to which I see these qualities consistently in them does relate directly to the mandate levels they hold within Divine Administration and the Mandate of the Bright and Morning Star. I am not a blind follower. I do see flaws in each of them, as they are human, like myself, but what I see in all of them is a higher perfection, as well as the great desire to change into the likeness of our Heavenly Father, and more impressively the example of how that is done. In my fall I know I rebelled against even true authority many times, in many ways. If the authority here were not greatly impressed in my soul, mind, and heart as being truly of divinity, I believe I would have left a long time ago. I would leave now if I had any inkling of corruption, maltreatment, or misuse of authority, but there is none.

I know if Gabriel (the co-founder of our community) was self-seeking at all, he could not persevere as I have seen him do throughout every trying situation—and there have been many which would have crushed most people in his position. If he sought fame or fortune, he absolutely could not withstand the barrage of lies, rumors, and attacks which the mainstream media has thrown at him. With strength of purpose, poise of spirit, and the heart of service with which he does not waver from, he continues to serve love to those around him. He's had the chance, and definitely has the talent and ability, to become rich and famous in a third-dimensional, sell-out kind of a way very easily if he wanted to, but he is absolutely unwilling to stray from God's perfect will. In him and Niánn (his spiritual complement and community co-founder) I have seen the heart of Jesus Christ Michael to a very high degree. This is a big statement, and it's definitely the truth. And in each Elder here I see, feel, and experience a reflection of this love to an extremely high degree. I am proud to say that I stand by Gabriel of Sedona and Niánn Emerson Chase, the leadership of Aquarian Concepts Community, as well as anyone else who reflects the love of God to such an amazing degree. I say this not for those who spread destructive, hollow lies about Gabriel in a spineless way just to help themselves deny the truth and light which they so often claim to follow. I say this for those who may have heard lies and rumors, and are scared to find out for themselves. My prayer is that you come and check out for yourself if my words are true, and allow yourself to hope. It may be the best choice you ever made. It was for me.

In the nine years I've been at the First Planetary Sacred Home I have experienced the greatest, fastest, most needed soul growth here I could ever imagine, beyond my highest hopes of what I was looking for when I knew I needed healing. I have realized that it is in service to others and this planet that we can change ourselves and each other and make this world a better place. I am starting to make the shift from seeker to giver, and I will remain at Planetary Sacred Home because it is my desire to share this incredible reality and highest truth which God is giving Urantia (Earth) through Gabriel of Sedona and Niánn Emerson Chase, and this cosmic family. I feel a responsibility to share this truth, and I want to give back to God for all He has given me.

So, if you seek The Father's perfect will for your life, and desire to find God's destiny for you, beware; "Gird up thy loins" for it truly is a war, and the time is now for this planet to come into its destiny. Will you come with it and meet His destiny for you? Now are the crucial end times of the epochal struggle between good and evil, the Lucifer Rebellion. These are the days of Faith, with a capital "F"—Father, the Universal Father, God, the One, the Mystery, The First Source and Center of all things.

I believe that Divine Administration is the hope for all on this planet. I believe the Mandate of the Bright and Morning Star, held by Gabriel of Urantia and Niánn Emerson Chase is the forerunner in the adjudication of this rebellion. The salvation of billions of souls is at stake. The stage is set. The pieces are placed. The players are being trained. I want to be one of the players, no longer just a piece subject to the cause and effects of this rebellion. The only way I can do that is by putting all of my faith in Christ Michael, in His plan for this adjudication, those I love, my life, and my soul's existence on this world. The pearl of great price…it is truly worth any price.

It is that faith which has led me here. It is that faith which keeps me here.

With all my love and prayer,


MasSa'Seen, Minister
Vicegerent Second Assistant
to Gabriel of Urantia and Niánn Emerson Chase and the Mandate of the Bright and Morning Star
