Preface
These lines present an overview
Of the career of an
Ascending mortal.
The story provides a glimpse of the general plan of mortal progression
As it is operative in the local universe
Of the seventh super universe.
Seven Stages
The mortal survivors of time and space
Are designated ascending pilgrims
When approved for the progressive ascent to
Paradise.
This narrative
Is a synopsis of the seven stages of the ascending universe
career
of an Adjuster-indwelt mortal.
1. Planetary Mortals
2. Sleeping Survivors (Limbo)
3. Mansion World Students
4. Local Universe Progressors
5. Super Universe Wards
6. Central Universe Pilgrims
7. Paradise Arrivals.
The Paradise destiny may be anticipated
By all of the human races of Earth.
Planetary Mortals
Mortals are all animal-origin
Evolutionary beings of
Ascendant potential.
In origin, nature, and destiny the various groups and types
of
Human beings from all inhabited worlds
Are like the people of Earth.
The human races of each world receive the same ministry of the
Sons of God and enjoy the presence of the
Ministering spirits of time.
After natural death all types of ascenders fraternize as one
family
On the mansion worlds.
Sleeping Survivors
All mortals of survival status,
In the custody of personal guardian angels,
Pass through the portals of natural death
And personalize on the mansion worlds.
On the third "day."
Accredited beings who have not attained the level of
Intelligence mastery
And spirituality
That would entitle them to personal guardians,
Cannot go directly to the mansion worlds.
Such surviving souls must rest in unconscious sleep (Limbo)
Until the judgment day of a new epoch,
The coming of a Son of God to call the rolls of the age
And adjudicate the realm.
When Christ Michael ascended on high
At the conclusion of his work on Earth,
He led a great multitude of sleeping survivors.
These pilgrims were the sleeping survivors
From the days of Adam to
The day of the Master's resurrection on Earth.
The passing of time is of no concern to sleeping mortals.
They are wholly
unconscious and oblivious to the length of their rest.
On reassembly of personality at the end of an age,
Those who have slept five thousand years
Will react no differently than those who have
Rested five days.
Aside from this time delay
These survivors pass on through the ascension regime identically
With those who bypass the longer or shorter
Sleep of death.
These dispensational classes of world pilgrims are utilized for
Group activities
In the work of the local universes.
There is a great advantage in the mobilization of such
Enormous groups.
They are kept together for long periods of effective service.
Mansion
World Students
In each local system of approximately one thousand inhabited
planets,
There are seven mansion worlds,
That are satellites of the system capital.
They are the receiving worlds for most ascending mortals.
All surviving mortals who reawaken on the mansion worlds
Belong to a class of mansion world students.
The physical body of mortal flesh is not a part
Of the reassembly of the sleeping survivor.
The physical body has returned to dust.
The guardian angel sponsors a new body,
(An ethereal form)
And presents the survivor's identity,
(The immortal soul).
The Thought Adjuster
provides the spirit transcript
Of the mind of the mortal survivor.
When the Adjuster and the angel bring
Their personality trusts together,
The new individual is resurrected.
Though the individual may never understand this inexplicable
transaction,
He will certainly know the truth of it
If he does not reject the plan of mortal survival.
Local
Universe Progressors
From the mansion worlds on up through the spheres
Of the
System, constellation, and the universe,
Mortals are classed as progressors.
As they progress from the lower to the higher worlds,
They serve on countless assignments
In association with their teachers and
More advanced mortals.
From here on, within a given group of spheres like the mansion
worlds,
Ascenders will progress individually from one sphere to another,
(From one phase of life to another).
Advancement from one level of the universe
To another is in classes.
In the local universe,
Seekers are still three-natured beings
So, progression relates to continuing advancement of
Intellect, spirit, and personality.
The spirit career begins
In the super universe.
Mortals acquire spirit identity
Just before they leave the local universe headquarters.
Passing to the lowest spirit status
Is a slight transition.
The mind, personality, and character are unchanged.
Only the form undergoes modification.
Before departing their local universes,
The mortals of time receive Spirit confirmation
From the Creator Son
And the Mother Spirit.
From this point on,
The status of the ascending mortal is fixed.
Super universe
wards
Do not go astray.
Super Universe Wards
All ascenders
arriving on the training worlds
Of the super
universes become the wards of the Ancients of Days.
They have
traversed the life of the local universe
And are now
accredited spirits.
There are three orders of student spirits
Classified by their sojourn
Upon the minor sector, major sectors, and the super universe
headquarters worlds of spirit progression.
Just as local universe ascenders studied
and worked on the worlds of
The local universe,
Spirit ascenders continue to master new worlds
While they practice giving others that which they learn.
Going to school as a spirit being in a super universe
Is unlike anything
That has ever entered the imaginative realms of the
Material mind of man.
The reason for all of this experience and training
Is necessary
Because of their probable destiny as members of the
Corps of the Finality.
The super universe regime is not the same
For all ascending mortals.
While receiving the same general education,
Exceptional groups and classes
Receive special courses of instruction.
Central Universe Pilgrims
The spriritual education of
ascenders
Begins in reality
Beyond time and space
Upon their arrival in the Central Universe.
The journey from the super universe headquarters
To the Central Universe receiving spheres is
Made alone.
Group instruction has ended.
Throughout the career in the Central Universe,
Instruction is personal:
Intellectual, experiential,
And spiritual.
After concluding the formalities of the Central Universe arrival,
The seeker is granted a long period of leisure for observation.
This affords opportunity for looking up friends and associates
of the
Long ascension experience.
Having been thoroughly trained
In the evolutionary worlds of space,
The ascendant mortal spirits
Now begin their studies anew.
Their contact with the created spheres
Of perfection
Will be long and profitable.
The grandeur of these worlds is inexpressible.
Paradise Arrivals
The ascendant soul makes several
trips to Paradise while still training in the
Central Universe.
Before qualifying for Paradise residency,
The ascender must locate the presence of the
Spiritual luminosity
Of the Trinity.
Ever-increasing perfection eventually enables the pilgrim
To recognize, discern, and comprehend the
Personality
Of the Infinite Spirit.
While most ascenders are able to contact the
Intellectual reality
Of the Deities,
Not all can recognize or even partially comprehend the reality
of the
Spiritual Presence of the
Universal Father
And the Eternal Son.
Still more difficult is gaining even minimal
Spiritual comprehension
Of the Universal Father.
Residency status on Paradise signifies the seeker has finished
the
Search for God.
Ascenders now begin a progressive course
In divinity and absonity.
Of all the creatures of the grand universe,
Only Father fused and Paradise perfected mortals,
Muster into the
Mortal Corps of the Finality.
Initially, this accumulating congregation
Of the evolutionary perfected veterans of time and space
Are assigned to observational and cooperative service
Throughout all creation
While awaiting their special mission in
Future ages
Of the evolution of the newly forming spheres
In outer space.
The Secrets of Greatness
Once ascending seekers awaken to the importance of time,
They also realize the solemnity of trust
And the sanctity of service.
These are the secrets of greatness.
When the tests for greatness are applied, the quality of unselfishness
Shown in disinterested labor for the welfare of one's fellows,
Particularly worthy beings in need, is the real measure of planetary
Greatness.
The manifestation of greatness on a world like Earth is self-control.
The great man is not he who "overthrows a nation," but rather,
"He who subdues his own tongue."
Greatness is synonymous with divinity.
Greatness and goodness are one.
Even in the human estate,
Greatness and goodness are
interdependent.
If men can through grace become good, they
Are becoming Great.
The more persistently men pursue the concepts of divine goodness,
The more certainly they will grow in greatness,
And in magnitude of survival character.
Rest
There are seven types of rest.
There is the rest of sleep and of play in the lower life orders,
Discovery in the higher beings,
And worship in the highest type of spirit personality.
There is also the normal rest of energy intake,
The recharging of beings with physical
Or spiritual energy.
Then there is the transit sleep, the unconscious slumber
When in passage from one
Sphere to another.
Entirely different from all of these is the deep sleep
Of metamorphosis, the transition
Rest from one stage of being to another,
From one life to another, from one state of
Existence to another, the sleep that attends transition
From actual universe status
In contrast to evolution through various stages of any one status.
The last metamorphic sleep is something more
Than the previous transition slumbers
That marked the successive status attainments of the ascendant career.
Seekers
enter their final rest on the inner circuit
Of
the Central Universe
And
are resurrected on Paradise.
The last rest of time has been enjoyed.
The seeker awakens on the shores of the eternal abode.
The creatures of time and space
Become residents of the timeless and spaceless abodes
Of Paradise.
The seeker shall live forever.
There shall be no more sleep,
