Sorry..it was't apparent in your previous misrepresentations that you had read
the book.

Here is what the Urantia book says about them dang IMPLANTS.

PAPER 107 - ORIGIN AND NATURE OF THOUGHT ADJUSTERS
Although the Universal Father is personally resident on Paradise, at the very
center of the universes, he is also actually present on the worlds of space in
the minds of his countless children of time, for he indwells them as the
Mystery Monitors. The eternal Father is at one and the same time farthest
removed from, and most intimately associated with, his planetary mortal sons.
The Adjusters are the actuality of the Father's love incarnate in the souls of
men; they are the veritable promise of man's eternal career imprisoned within
the mortal mind; they are the essence of man's perfected finaliter
personality, which he can foretaste in time as he progressively masters the
divine technique of achieving the living of the Father's will, step by step,
through the ascension of universe upon universe until he actually attains the
divine presence of his Paradise Father.
God, having commanded man to be perfect, even as he is perfect, has descended
as the Adjuster to become man's experiential partner in the achievement of the
supernal destiny which has been thus ordained. The fragment of God which
indwells the mind of man is the absolute and unqualified assurance that man
can find the Universal Father in association with this divine Adjuster, which
came forth from God to find man and sonship him even in the days of the flesh.
Any mortal who has seen a Creator Son has seen the Universal Father, and he
who is indwelt by a divine Adjuster is indwelt by the Paradise Father. Every
mortal who is consciously or unconsciously following the leading of his
indwelling Adjuster is living in accordance with the will of God.
Consciousness of Adjuster presence is consciousness of God's presence. Eternal
fusion of the Adjuster with the evolutionary soul of man is the factual
experience of eternal union with God as a universe associate of Deity.
It is the Adjuster who creates within man that unquenchable yearning and
incessant longing to be like God, to attain Paradise, and there before the
actual person of Deity to worship the infinite source of the divine gift. The
Adjuster is the living presence which actually links the mortal son with his
Paradise Father and draws him nearer and nearer to the Father. The Adjuster is
our compensatory equalization of the enormous universe tension which is
created by the distance of man's removal from God and by the degree of his
partiality in contrast with the universality of the eternal Father.
The Adjuster is an absolute essence of an infinite being imprisoned within the
mind of a finite creature which, depending on the choosing of such a mortal,
can eventually consummate this temporary union of God and man and veritably
actualize a new order of being for unending universe service. The Adjuster is
the divine universe reality which factualizes the truth that God is man's
Father. The Adjuster is man's infallible cosmic compass, always and unerringly
pointing the soul Godward.
On the evolutionary worlds, will creatures traverse three general
developmental stages of being: From the arrival of the Adjuster to comparative
full growth, about twenty years of age on Urantia, the Monitors are sometimes
designated Thought Changers. From this time to the attainment of the age of
discretion, about forty years, the Mystery Monitors are called Thought
Adjusters. From the attainment of discretion to deliverance from the flesh,
they are often referred to as Thought Controllers. These three phases of
mortal life have no connection with the three stages of Adjuster progress in
mind duplication and soul evolution.

I hope you listen to your Thought Adjuster who is desperately trying to guide
you back to the light. The RA material will take you no where.

The mind is the ship, the will is captain and the Adjuster is the pilot.
