This is the story of Rodan of Alexandria word for word from the Urantia Book. Rodan's wisdom in a small, easy to carry book.

An amazing fact about the human condition is that every human has at least one natural talent that can be developed to excellence. The capacity for self-refinement and development is remarkable in humans once this natural talent(s) has been identified. When it comes to attaining excellence and greatness, therefore, no human is incapable. How is worldly success made? How do ordinary people become great? Is it luck, or perhaps destiny? Sophia's (wisdom's) fire answers these questions by resurrecting the greats, whose minds decorated our world, and whose words now demystify the pursuit of worldly success. The paths to greatness are daunting, and therein, even merit desires mercy. What better mercy than the wisdom of those who have been there and have conquered. In the pursuit of worldly success, there is only one person that matters - you, and only one time that matters - now. Regardless of your perception of the universe and your fundamental beliefs, you owe yourself the duty to succeed. All humans are unique and complex entities, with unique dreams and aspirations. Success starts when dreams meet light and aspirations meet action. The time is ripe to give light to your dreams - Sophia's fire.

In 1955 the Urantia Book appeared, all in 2,100 pages. It is a heavy read that tells us how we came to be, what we may become, and enough about astronomy to help us understand what makes that possible. It has sold 3/4 million copies in many languages, and would have sold many more if it were simpler to read. The purpose of this book, Urantia the Earth: The Origin of It All, is to help bring that about to make it more negotiable, more user-friendly. This is not a dumbing-down exercise; this book is a reading aid, challenging enough in itself.

Almost the whole of the New Testament is devoted, not to the portrayal of the significant and inspiring religious life of Jesus, but to a discussion of Paul’s religious experience and to a portrayal of his personal religious convictions. The only notable exceptions to this statement, aside from certain parts of Matthew, Mark, and Luke, are the Book of Hebrews and the Epistle of James. Even Peter, in his writing, only once reverted to the personal religious life of his Master. The New Testament is a superb Christian document, but it is only meagerly Jesusonian.

"This book is a collection of spiritual affirmations, which when spoken create a more intimate relationship with our Divine Fragment of the Creator, our Adjuster, who lives within us in the highest levels of our mind. The main goal for the reader is to learn to create affirmations, (positive "I" statements), which empower the reader to achieve Soul and Divine consciousness. The author uses quotes from the Urantia Book, (a twenty-first century revelation), and expands their meanings for our lives. Patrick restates them into affirmations, which become a new language to your Divine self. Many personal insights, examples and interpretations of the deeper meanings of spiritual soul growth are given along with how to achieve the awareness that you and your divine self are potentially one. You can use your divine mind just for the asking. Our divine self, our Thought Adjuster, is a real part of God and brings to us a perfect Paradise plan for the spiritual and intellectual growth of our soul. God waits for us to exercise our free will by inviting His Guidance and executing His will. Throughout the book the author/artist illustrates with his art these concepts of the extraordinary coordinate human/divine relationship. As a workbook, each chapter invites you to create your own affirmations to your divine self in your own soul voice for your personal spiritual empowerment.
