Well, I imagine that there are always a somewhere around that number first circlers quietly working on the planet. If there are 7.4 billion people on the planet 1 million is just a tiny fraction. We’re told that there are many first circlers around. But what makes you think that only first circlers make a difference? I think seventh circlers are just as capable, don’t you? Not sure where you’re going with this exactly.
110:7.1 The achievement of the seven cosmic circles does not equal Adjuster fusion. There are many mortals living on Urantia who have attained their circles; but fusion depends on yet other greater and more sublime spiritual achievements, upon the attainment of a final and complete attunement of the mortal will with the will of God as it is resident in the Thought Adjuster.
Personally, I think the world doesn’t need normalizing. I think the world is just fine, perfectly normal in every way. Maybe you mean human civilization? Not all humans are normal, that’s for sure! Therefore, since civilization is a human invention, it makes sense that not all civilizations are normal. Of course, if we would all strive to attune to our Adjusters, civilization would benefit enormously. They do tell us that if the Adjusters were to leave, civilization would return to primitive times. Adjusters are the potential of “normalizing” (whatever that means) civilization.
109:4.4 The indwelling Adjusters have in no small measure co-operated with other spiritual influences in transforming and humanizing the descendants of the primitive men of olden ages. If the Adjusters indwelling the minds of the inhabitants of Urantia were to be withdrawn, the world would slowly return to many of the scenes and practices of the men of primitive times; the divine Monitors are one of the real potentials of advancing civilization.
