ABOUT PHYSICAL DEATH OF MATERIAL SELF
Death of material physical self is an important and crucial moment in human existence and represents the interruption of a life’s material career and for comparably few an irrevocable ending of their existence depending on whether during life a faith decision was made in respect to doing the will of God the Father.
Physical death is exiting life by way of interruption of vital physical functions and for some human beings is of consequence if they did not reach the status of spiritual identification with their personal Thought Adjuster which would have allowed them to leave earth life in fusion with their Spirit, rather than by disruption of their overall vital life energies. (1)
The material self, the ego-entity of human identity, is dependent during the physical life on the continuing function of its material life vehicle for the continued existence of the unbalanced equilibrium of energies and intellect which, on Urantia, has been given the name LIFE.
Selfhood of survival value, selfhood that can transcend the experience of physical body death, is only evolved by establishing a potential transfer of the seat of the identity of the evolving personality from the transient life material body vehicle (PUMA) to the more enduring and immortal nature of the morontia soul (MUMA) and on beyond to those levels whereon the soul becomes infused with, and eventually attains the status of, spirit reality.
Therefore in brief, life’s transient material body, the material PUMA I am self, after physical death stays associated with Urantia planet and becomes Urantia material PUMA I am self consciousness. As discussed in the previous FDTP Papers evolving central PUMA mind ascended by Adjutant Mind Spirits (AMS) can “reincarnate” and evolve as a new soul of new PUMA-AMS self identity and personality by associating with a new TA.
After physical death morontia earned qualified creative potential mind from physical seat of passed soul’s identity (PUMA) is retained by Thought Adjuster and passed soul’s linked morontia personality energies are then seraph transported to morontia Mansonia World by souls Guardian Angel in planetary soul’s charge.
The actual transfer from material association to morontia identification is effected mainly by the sincerity, persistence, and steadfastness of the God-seeking decisions of the human creature.

Prolotheos On Physical Death (1)
Message received by Valdir Soares.
Prolotheos: “Death is an important and crucial moment in all human existence. Death may be an interruption in a life’s career or — for comparably few — an irrevocable ending to their existence — depending on whether during life a faith decision was made in respect to doing the will of the Father. Death is an important event because it is the moment of harvest — timely or untimely — of a life’s career. Death is exiting life by way of interruption of vital functions and is of consequence for human beings that did not reach the status of spiritual identification with their personal Thought Adjuster. Such would have allowed them to leave earth life in fusion with this Spirit, rather than by disruption of life’s energies. Irrespective of the manner in which death occurs, it presents three aspects related to the cessation of energies. Let us consider these aspects:
Death Moment: Cessation of Energies.
“Death is a unique experience for each human being and although observed daily, it has never been fully understood to satisfactorily explain its implications or to anticipate the experience of it for each individual. In this sense, it is a veiled mystery that awaits one’s personal translation. In death, physical and mental energies stop their activities. Physical pulsation stops, and mind without their physical support and structure also ceases to function and vanishes. The immediate consequence of these physical and mental energies’ cessations is the loss of consciousness that, although similar to the slumber state of sleeping, registers no dreaming experience, no mental activity at all, being a wholly non-conscious state. In death a dissociation of energies occurs: you lose realization, but not your reality.
Death Exigencies: Transference of Energies.
“While in death some energies disappear never to return, other energies are only transferred to different settings, but continue to exist and can be retrieved. Such is the case of the personality, spiritual, and morontia (soul) energies. The exact after-death transitional location of the personality of each individual is known but by our Creator; however, they do not disappear. During the earth life, the Spirit Within, the Adjuster, was engaged in building a morontia counterpart self with all spiritual values that the individual sponsored in life. These values are stored in what we call the human soul of morontia nature. At death, these morontia energies linked to the soul are, together with it, carried away to the heavens by the guardian angel in charge and delivered to the care of the archangel of destiny, under the custody of whom these energies await until the resurrection, the re-assembly on Mansion World Number One.
The Spirit Within keeps under its own care the actual memories of relevant material life information of the expired individual. In that way, personality, spiritual and morontia energies are transferred from the body to elsewhere, mostly for future re-activation and re-circuiting.
Death Aftermath: Resumption of Energies.
“Death produces the cessation of energies, but also by this same cessation death liberates some of these energies for new circuiting in a new body of a morontia nature. Yes, indeed, for the vast majority of human beings, personality, soul and the Spirit Within are reunited in a new morontia body and duly connected to the Cosmic Mind on Mansonia One, that being the so-called resurrection of the believers. As these energies resume their functions, so a morontia life starts for the individual that was taken by death in his or her native physical evolutionary planet. Thus, for those who on Earth sheltered even a faint spark of faith in the life beyond, a new life after death undoubtedly awaits and they will resume their lives in a better setting, a better country, which you call Heaven.
“Therefore my pupil, if the individual does not meet the conditions for fusion with the Spirit Within there on your world, death is the established means for advancing from the flesh to the morontia/spiritual dimension of your existence. It doesn’t matter the manner, the time or the place, death will carry you to your next station on the universal plane. So, do not fear death, even though your animal instinct of survival fights against it. When the time comes, peacefully surrender your life’s energies into the hands of the One who once gave them to you — all is prepared to receive the faith-sons of God and make good the promise of eternal life the Father made on Urantia through his Son Christ Michael. He is faithful; He has taken care of everything.
I am your teacher-tutor, Prolotheos, and I know of what I speak because I once experienced death and even now I am communicating with you from these spiritual spheres on High.
Peace be with you and all.”

Urantia Book on Death of Physical Material Self (2)
112:2.20 The material self, the ego-entity of human identity, is dependent during the physical life on the continuing function of the material life vehicle, on the continued existence of the unbalanced equilibrium of energies and intellect which, on Urantia, has been given the name life. But selfhood of survival value, selfhood that can transcend the experience of death, is only evolved by establishing a potential transfer of the seat of the identity of the evolving personality from the transient life vehicle — the material body — to the more enduring and immortal nature of the morontia soul and on beyond to those levels whereon the soul becomes infused with, and eventually attains the status of, spirit reality. This actual transfer from material association to morontia identification is effected by the sincerity, persistence, and steadfastness of the God-seeking decisions of the human creature.
112:3 The Phenomenon of Death
112:3.1 Urantians generally recognize only one kind of death, the physical cessation of life energies; but concerning personality survival there are really three kinds:
- Spiritual (soul) death. If and when mortal man has finally rejected survival, when he has been pronounced spiritually insolvent, morontially bankrupt, in the conjoint opinion of the Adjuster and the surviving seraphim, when such co-ordinate advice has been recorded on Uversa, and after the Censors and their reflective associates have verified these findings, thereupon do the rulers of Orvonton order the immediate release of the indwelling Monitor. But this release of the Adjuster in no way affects the duties of the personal or group seraphim concerned with that Adjuster-abandoned individual. This kind of death is final in its significance irrespective of the temporary continuation of the living energies of the physical and mind mechanisms. From the cosmic standpoint the mortal is already dead; the continuing life merely indicates the persistence of the material momentum of cosmic energies.
- Intellectual (mind) death. When the vital circuits of higher adjutant ministry are disrupted through the aberrations of intellect or because of the partial destruction of the mechanism of the brain, and if these conditions pass a certain critical point of irreparability, the indwelling Adjuster is immediately released to depart for Divinington. On the universe records a mortal personality is considered to have met with death whenever the essential mind circuits of human will-action have been destroyed. And again, this is death, irrespective of the continuing function of the living mechanism of the physical body. The body minus the volitional mind is no longer human, but according to the prior choosing of the human will, the soul of such an individual may survive.
- Physical (body and mind) death. When death overtakes a human being, the Adjuster remains in the citadel of the mind until it ceases to function as an intelligent mechanism, about the time that the measurable brain energies cease their rhythmic vital pulsations. Following this dissolution the Adjuster takes leave of the vanishing mind, just as unceremoniously as entry was made years before, and proceeds to Divinington by way of Uversa.
112:3.5 After death the material body returns to the elemental world from which it was derived, but two nonmaterial factors of surviving personality persist: The pre-existent Thought Adjuster, with the memory transcription of the mortal career, proceeds to Divinington; and there also remains, in the custody of the destiny guardian, the immortal morontia soul of the deceased human. These phases and forms of soul, these once kinetic but now static formulas of identity, are essential to re-personalization on the morontia worlds; and it is the reunion of the Adjuster and the soul that reassembles the surviving personality, that re-conscious-sizes you at the time of the morontia awakening.
112:3.6 For those who do not have personal seraphic guardians, the group custodians faithfully and efficiently perform the same service of identity safekeeping and personality resurrection. The seraphim are indispensable to the reassembly of personality.
112:3.7 Upon death the Thought Adjuster temporarily loses personality, but not identity; the human subject temporarily loses identity, but not personality; on the mansion worlds both reunite in eternal manifestation. Never does a departed Thought Adjuster return to earth as the being of former indwelling; never is personality manifested without the human will; and never does a dis-Adjustered human being after death manifest active identity or in any manner establish communication with the living beings of earth. Such dis-Adjustered souls are wholly and absolutely unconscious during the long or short sleep of death. There can be no exhibition of any sort of personality or ability to engage in communications with other personalities until after completion of survival. Those who go to the mansion worlds are not permitted to send messages back to their loved ones. It is the policy throughout the universes to forbid such communication during the period of a current dispensation.
