Metamorphosis of The “I Am”
First volitional expression
and repercussional reaction of the I AM. The I AM differentiates self of The Infinite One from The Infinitude.
This self-metamorphosis
of the I AM culminates in the multiple differentiation of deified reality and of undeified reality, of potential and actual
reality and of other unclassified realities.

The
Seven Absolutes of Infinity
The seven prime relationships
within the I AM eternalize as the Seven Absolutes of Infinity. This constitutes the beginnings of reality:
1. The First Source and
Center -
First Person of Deity and
primal nondeity pattern, God, the Universal Father, creator, controller, and upholder; universal love, eternal spirit, and
infinite energy; potential of all potentials and source of all actuals; stability of all statics and dynamism of all change;
source of pattern and Father of persons. All seven Absolutes equivalate to infinity, but the Universal Father himself actually
is infinite.
2. The Second Source and
Center -
Second Person of Deity,
the Eternal and Original Son; the absolute personality realities of the I AM and the basis for the expression revelation of
"I AM personality." No personality can attain the Universal Father except through his Eternal Son. Neither can personality
attain to spirit levels of existence apart from the action and aid of this absolute pattern for all personalities. In the
Second Source and Center spirit is unqualified while personality is absolute.
3. The Paradise Source and Center
-
Second nondeity pattern,
the eternal Isle of Paradise; the basis for the realization-revelation of "I AM force" and the foundation for the establishment
of gravity control throughout the universes. Regarding all actualized, nonspiritual, impersonal, and nonvolitional reality,
Paradise is the absolute of patterns. Just as spirit energy is related to the Universal Father
through the absolute personality of the Mother-Son, so is all cosmic energy grasped in the gravity control of the First Source
and Center through the absolute pattern of the Paradise Isle. Paradise is not in space; space exists relative to Paradise,
and the chronicity of motion is determined through Paradise relationship. The eternal Isle
is absolutely at rest; all other organized and organizing energy is in eternal motion. In all space, only the presence
of the Unqualified Absolute is quiescent, and the Unqualified is co-ordinate with Paradise.
Paradise exists at the focus of space, the Unqualified pervades it, and all relative existence
has its being within the domain of the Unqualified Absolute.
4. The Third Source
and Center -
Third Person of Deity,
the Conjoint Actor is the infinite integrator of Paradise cosmic energies with the spirit energies of the Eternal Son;
perfect co-ordinator of the motives of will and the mechanics of force; unifier of all actual and actualizing reality. Through
the ministrations of his manifold children, the Infinite Spirit reveals the mercy of the Eternal Son while at the same time
functioning as the infinite manipulator. He is forever weaving the pattern of Paradise
into the energies of space. The Conjoint Actor, this God of Action, is the perfect expression of the limitless plans and purposes
of the Father-Son while functioning himself as the source of mind and the bestower of intellect upon the creatures of the
far-flung cosmos.
5. The Deity Absolute
-
The causational, potentially
personal possibilities of universal reality, the totality of all Deity potential. The Deity Absolute is the purposive qualifier
of the unqualified, absolute, and nondeity realities. The Deity Absolute is the qualifier of the absolute and the absolutizer
of the
qualified - the destiny
inceptor.
6. The Unqualified
Absolute -
Static, reactive,
and abeyant; the unrevealed cosmic infinity of the I AM; totality of nondeified reality and finality of all nonpersonal potential.
Space limits the function of the Unqualified, but the presence of the Unqualified is without limit, infinite. There is a conceptual
periphery to the master universe, but the presence of the Unqualified is limitless; even eternity cannot exhaust the boundless
quiescence of this nondeity Absolute.
7. The Universal Absolute
-
Unifier of the deified
and the undeified; correlator of the absolute and the relative. The Universal Absolute (being static, potential, and associative)
compensates the tension between the ever-existent and the uncompleted.

Formation
of The Trinity of Trinities
The Trinity of Trinities
exists in several phases of time. The Trinities are levels of increasing unification. Through the Trinity of Trinities the
experiential infinite attains to identity with the existential infinite.
When the absolute potentials become completely actualized, total reality will be integrated. This eventuality will
reunite the seven absolute phases of the Father-I AM.
The three Trinities function
as perfectly synchronized (though distinct) groupings of Deity personalities. They
are the final expression of all that is implied in the fifteen triunities and associated triodities.
The First level
of the Trinity of Trinities
1. The Paradise Trinity – This is
the association of the three Paradise Deities - Father, Son, and Spirit. The Paradise Trinity implies a threefold function
- an absolute function, a transcendental function (Trinity of Ultimacy), and a finite function (Trinity of Supremacy). The
Paradise Trinity is any and all of these at any and all times.
2. The Ultimate Trinity
- This is the deity association of the Supreme Creators, God the Supreme, and the Architects of the Master Universe.
3. The Absolute Trinity
- This is the grouping of God the Supreme, God the Ultimate, and the Consummator of Universe Destiny in regard to all divinity
values. In the Absolute Trinity, the power and the personality aspects of the experiential Deities are now in process of experiential
synthesis.
The association of these
three Trinities provides for an unlimited integration of reality.
The Second Level
of the Trinity of Trinities
1. The Supreme - This is
the deity consequence of the unity of the Paradise Trinity in experiential liaison with the local universe Creator
Sons and Creative Daughters of the Paradise Deities. The Supreme is the deity embodiment of the completion of the first stage
of finite evolution.
2. The Ultimate - This is
the deity consequence of the eventuated unity of the second Trinity, the transcendental and absonite personification
of divinity. While the Ultimate and the Supreme are comparable, they are not identical.
Neither is the Ultimate merely an amplification of the Supreme.
3. The Absolute - The third
member of the second level of the Trinity of Trinities is God the Absolute Who is involved in this association as the personality
consequence of the final function of the Trinity Absolute. The Deity Absolute
is an existential reality of eternity, not infinite, status.
The Third Level
of the Trinity of Trinities
In the union of the Supreme,
Ultimate, and the complete Absolute, there occurs the functional reassembly of those aspects of infinity which were
originally segmented by the I AM, and which resulted in the appearance of the Seven Absolutes of Infinity.
The realization of the Trinity
of Trinities means the limitless galaxy of personalities who become volitional participants in the self-revelation
of the I AM will remain eternally as absolute volitional parts of the totality of infinity, final sons of the absolute
Father.

The
Nuclear Isle of Paradise
Paradise
is the eternal center of the universe of universes and the permanent residence of the Universal Father, the Eternal Son, the
Infinite Spirit, and their divine co-ordinates and associates. This central Isle is the most gigantic organized body of cosmic
reality in all the master universe.
The Universal
Father is cosmically focalized, spiritually personalized, and geographically resident at this center of the universe of universes. The Paradise presence of the Universal Father is
immediately surrounded by the personal presence of the Eternal Son. They are
both invested by the unspeakable glory of the Infinite Spirit.
Paradise is a material sphere
as well as a spiritual abode. All of the intelligent creation of the Universal Father is domiciled on material abodes. Therefore, the absolute controlling center
must also be material. Spirit things and spiritual beings are real.
The personal
presence of the Universal Father is resident at the very center of the upper surface of this well-nigh circular, but not spherical,
abode of the Deities.
The material beauty of Paradise consists in the magnificence of its physical perfection. The grandeur of the Isle of God is exhibited
in the superb intellectual accomplishments and mind development of its inhabitants.
Paradise is from eternity; there are neither records nor traditions
respecting the origin of this nuclear Isle of Light and Life.

The Existential Paradise Trinity
The Paradise
Trinity of eternal Deities facilitates the Father's escape from personality absolutism. The Trinity perfectly associates the
limitless expression of God's infinite personal will with the absoluteness of Deity. The Eternal Son (and
the various Sons of divine origin), together with the Conjoint Actor (and his universe children), effectively provide for
the Father's liberation from the limitations otherwise inherent in primacy, perfection, changelessness, eternity, universality,
absoluteness, and infinity.
The Trinity
is Deity unity. This unity rests upon the absolute foundations of the divine
oneness of the three original and co-ordinate and coexistent personalities, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Spirit.
The present
master universe, viewed in retrospect or in prospect, is unthinkable without the Trinity.
The Universal Father (Thought)
The Universal Father is the God
of all creation, the First Source and Center of all things and beings.
The Universal Father all along has divested himself of every part of himself that was bestowable on
any other Creator or creature. He has delegated to his divine Sons and their associated intelligences every power and all
authority that could be delegated. He has actually transferred to his Sovereign Sons, in their respective universes, every
prerogative of administrative authority that was transferable. In the affairs of a local universe, he has made each Sovereign
Creator Son just as perfect, competent, and authoritative as is the Eternal Son in the original and central universe. He has
bestowed, with the dignity and sanctity of personality possession, all of himself and all of his attributes, everything he
possibly could divest himself of, in every way, in every age, in every place, and to every person, and in every universe except
that of his central indwelling.
The myriads of planetary systems were made to be eventually inhabited by many different types of intelligent
creatures who could know God, receive the divine affection, and love him in return.
From the Universal Father has gone forth the supreme mandate, "Be you perfect, even as I am perfect."
The messengers of Paradise
have carried this divine exhortation down through the ages and out through the universes, even to such lowly animal-origin
creatures as the human races of Urantia (Earth).
In response, the will creatures of universe upon universe have embarked upon the long Paradise
journey, the fascinating struggle of the eternal adventure of attaining God the Father. God-knowing creatures have one supreme
ambition. That ambition is to become, as they are in their spheres, like him
as he is in his Paradise perfection of personality and in his universal sphere of righteous
supremacy.
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 (Thought Adjusters).
This fragment of God which indwells the mind of man is the absolute and unqualified assurance that
man can find the Universal Father. The Adjuster is man's infallible cosmic compass, always and unerringly pointing the soul
Godward.
It is the Adjuster who creates within man the unquenchable yearning and incessant longing to be like
God and to attain Paradise. Depending upon the
volitional choice of a mortal, a person can eventually consummate the temporary union of God and man and actualize a new order
of being for unending universe service.
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.
The Original Son (Expression)
The Eternal Son is the original and only-begotten Son of God. He is God the Son, the Second Person of Deity
and the associate creator of all things. As the Father is the First Great Source and Center, so the Eternal Son is the Second
Great Source and Center.
The Eternal Son is the perfect and final expression of the "first" personal and absolute concept of the Universal
Father. Whenever and however the Father personally and absolutely expresses himself, he does so through his Eternal Son, who
ever has been, now is, and ever will be, the living and divine Word. And this Eternal Son is residential at the center of
all things, in association with, and immediately enshrouding the personal presence of, the Eternal and Universal Father.
The Eternal Son constitutes the divine revelation of the creator identity of the Universal Father. The perfect
personality of the Son discloses that the Father is actually the eternal and universal source of all the meanings and values
of the spiritual, the volitional, the purposeful, and the personal.
Distortions of language represent the effort of contact-compromise with the time-bound minds of mortal creatures.
In the sequential sense the Universal Father never could have had a first thought, nor could the Eternal Son ever have had
a beginning.
The Conjoint Actor (Action)
AKA The Infinite Spirit
In eternity, when the Universal Father's "first" infinite and absolute thought finds in the Eternal Son such
a perfect and adequate word for its divine expression, there ensues the supreme desire of both the Father Thought-God and
the Son Word-God for a universal and infinite agent of mutual expression and combined action.
In the dawn of eternity both the Father and the Son become infinitely cognizant of their mutual interdependence,
their eternal and absolute oneness. Therefore, they enter into an infinite and everlasting covenant of divine partnership.
This never-ending compact is made for the execution of their united concepts throughout all of the circle of eternity.
Ever since this eternity event, the Father and the Son continue in this divine union.
The very instant that God the Father and God the Son conjointly conceive an identical and infinite action (the
execution of an absolute thought-plan), the Infinite Spirit springs full-fledgedly into existence.
With the God of Action existent, the vast stage of space is set for the stupendous drama of creation.
Inherent in the nature of this transaction and in mutual recognition of the personality independence of each
and the executive union of all three, the cycle of eternity is established. The Paradise Trinity is existent. The stage of universal space is set for the manifold and
never-ending panorama of the creative unfolding of the purpose of the Universal Father through the personality of the Eternal
Son and by the execution of the God of Action, the executive agency for the reality performances of the Father-Son creator
partnership.
The Universal Father is the secret of the reality of personality, the bestowal of personality, and the destiny
of personality. The Eternal Son is the absolute personality, the secret of spiritual energy, morontia spirits, and perfected
spirits. The Conjoint Actor is the spirit-mind personality, the source of intelligence, reason, and the universal mind. The
Isle of Paradise is nonpersonal and extra-spiritual, being the essence of the universal body, the source and center of physical
matter, and the absolute master pattern of universal material reality.

The Triunities
The First Source and Center is Father
to the Eternal Son. He is Pattern to the Paradise Isle. He is personality unqualified in the Son,
but personality potentialized in the Deity Absolute. The Father is energy revealed in Paradise-Havona and
simultaneously energy concealed in the Unqualified Absolute. He is ever disclosed in the ceaseless acts
of the Conjoint Actor while he is eternally functioning in the compensating but enshrouded activities of the Universal Absolute.
Consequently, the Father is related to the six coordinate Absolutes. All seven encompass the circle of infinity throughout
the endless cycles of eternity.
The Paradise Trinity is unique among absolute relationships. There are several
existential triunities but only one existential Trinity. A triunity is not an entity. It is functional rather than organic.
Its members are partners rather than corporative. The components of the triunities may be entities, but
a triunity itself is an association.
In the triunities, total reality is functionalized. Through the triunities the Universal
Father exercises immediate and personal control over the master functions of infinity.
The Universal Father is the primal member of each Triunity. He is, was, and ever will be:
the First Universal Father-Source, Absolute Center, Primal Cause, Universal Controller, Limitless Energizer, Original Unity,
Unqualified Upholder, First Person of Deity, Primal Cosmic Pattern, and Essence of Infinity. The Universal Father is the personal
cause of the Absolutes. He is the absolute of Absolutes.
The First Triunity
This is the grouping of the three Deity personalities:
1.
The Universal Father.
2. The Eternal Son.
3. The Infinite Spirit.
The First Triunity is the threefold union of love, mercy, and ministry - the purposive and
personal association of the three eternal Paradise personalities. This is the divinely fraternal, creature-loving, fatherly-acting,
and ascension-promoting association. The divine personalities of this first triunity are personality-bequeathing, spirit-bestowing,
and mind-endowing Gods.
The First Triunity is the triunity of infinite volition. It acts throughout
the eternal present and in all of the past-present-future flow of time. This association yields volitional infinity and provides
the mechanisms whereby personal Deity becomes self-revelatory to the creatures of the evolving cosmos.
The
Second Triunity
This is the power-pattern triunity. Whether it be a tiny ultimaton, a whirling nebula or even
the central or superuniverses, from the smallest to the largest material organizations, the physical pattern (the cosmic configuration)
is derived from the function of this triunity. This association consists of:
1. The Father-Son.
2. The Paradise
Isle.
3. The Conjoint Actor.
Energy is organized by the cosmic agents of the Third Source and Center;
energy is fashioned after the pattern of Paradise, the absolute materialization. But, behind all of this ceaseless manipulation
is the presence of the Father-Son, whose union first activated the Paradise pattern in the appearance of Havona concomitant
with the birth of the Infinite Spirit, the Conjoint Actor.
Love may characterize the divinity of the first triunity, but pattern is the galactic manifestation
of the second triunity. What the first triunity is to evolving personalities, the second triunity is to the evolving universes.
Pattern and personality are two of the great manifestations of the acts of the First Source and Center; and no matter how
difficult it may be to comprehend, it is nonetheless true that the power-pattern and the loving person are one and the same
universal reality; the Paradise Isle and the Eternal Son are co-ordinate but antipodal revelations of the unfathomable nature
of the Universal Father-Force.
The Third Triunity
This is the spirit-evolutional triunity. The entirety
of spiritual manifestation has its beginning and end in this association, consisting of:
1. The Universal Father.
2.
The Son-Spirit.
3. The Deity Absolute.
From spirit potency to Paradise spirit, all spirit finds reality expression in this triune
association of the pure spirit essence of the Father, the active spirit values of the Son-Spirit, and the unlimited spirit
potentials of the Deity Absolute. The existential values of spirit have their primordial genesis, complete manifestation,
and final destiny in this triunity.
The Fourth Triunity
This is the triunity of energy infinity. Within this
triunity there eternalizes the beginnings and the endings of all energy reality, from space potency to monota. This
grouping embraces the following:
1. The Father-Spirit.
2. The Paradise Isle.
3. The Unqualified
Absolute.
Paradise is the center of the force-energy activation of the cosmos--the
universe position of the First Source and Center, the cosmic focal point of the Unqualified Absolute, and the source of all
energy. Existentially present within this triunity is the energy potential of the cosmos-infinite, of which the grand universe
and the master universe are only partial manifestations.
The fourth triunity absolutely controls the fundamental units of cosmic energy
and releases them from the grasp of the Unqualified Absolute in direct proportion to the appearance in the experiential Deities
of subabsolute capacity to control and stabilize the metamorphosing cosmos.
This triunity is force and energy. The endless possibilities of the
Unqualified Absolute are centered around the absolutum of the Isle of Paradise, whence emanate the unimaginable agitations
of the otherwise static quiescence of the Unqualified. And the endless throbbing of the material Paradise heart of the infinite
cosmos beats in harmony with the unfathomable pattern and the unsearchable plan of the Infinite Energizer, the First Source
and Center.
The Fifth Triunity
This is the triunity of reactive infinity.
This association consists of:
1. The Universal Father.
2. The Universal Absolute.
3. The Unqualified
Absolute.
This grouping yields the eternalization of the functional infinity realization
of all that is actualizable within the domains of nondeity reality. This triunity manifests unlimited reactive capacity to
the volitional, causative, tensional, and patternal actions and presences of the other triunities.
The Sixth Triunity
This is the triunity of cosmic-associated
Deity. This grouping consists of:
1. The Universal Father.
2. The Deity Absolute.
3. The Universal
Absolute.
This triunity is the association of Deity-in-the-cosmos, the immanence of Deity
in conjunction with the transcendence of Deity. This is the last outreach of divinity on the levels of infinity toward those
realities which lie outside the domain of deified reality.
The Seventh Triunity
This is the triunity of infinite unity.
This is the unity of infinity functionally manifest in time and eternity, the co-ordinate unification of actuals and potentials.
This group consists of:
1. The Universal Father.
2. The Conjoint Actor.
3. The Universal Absolute.
The Conjoint Actor universally integrates the varying functional aspects of
all actualized reality on all levels of manifestation, from finites through transcendentals to absolutes. The Universal Absolute
perfectly compensates the differentials inherent in the varying aspects of all incomplete reality, from the limitless potentialities
of active-volitional and causative Deity reality to the boundless possibilities of static, reactive, nondeity reality in the
incomprehensible domains of the Unqualified Absolute.
As they function in this triunity, the Conjoint Actor and the Universal Absolute
are alike responsive to Deity and to nondeity presences, as also is the First Source and Center, who in this relationship
is to all intents and purposes conceptually indistinguishable from the I AM.
There are a total of fifteen triune associations of the First Source and Center.
Only eight are unrevealed in these papers. The unrevealed associations are concerned with realities, actualities, and potentialities
which are beyond the experiential level of supremacy.

The
Triodities There are other triune relationships of which the Father
is not a member. They are distinguished from the Father triunities.
They are called triodities. They are consequential to the
existence of the triunities. Two of these associations are The Triodity of Actuality and The Triodity of Potentiality.
The Triodity of Actuality
This
triodity consists in the interrelationship of the three absolute actuals:
1. The Eternal Son
2.
The Paradise Isle
3. The Conjoint Actor. The Eternal Son is the absolute of spirit reality, the absolute personality.
The Paradise Isle is the absolute of cosmic reality, the absolute pattern. The Conjoint Actor is the absolute of mind reality,
the co-ordinate of absolute spirit reality, and the existential Deity synthesis of personality and power. This triune association
eventuates (results in) the co-ordination of the sum total of actualized reality - spirit, cosmic, and mindal.
The
Triodity of Potentiality This triodity consists in the association
of the three Absolutes of potentiality: 1. The Deity Absolute
2. The Universal Absolute
3.
The Unqualified Absolute. This
triodity is the interassociation of the infinity reservoirs of all latent energy reality - spirit, mindal, or cosmic. It is
infinite in potential. As the triunities are primarily concerned with
the functional unification of infinity, the triodities are involved in the cosmic appearance of experiential Deities - the
Supreme, Ultimate, and Absolute. They appear in the emerging power-personality synthesis of the Supreme Being. To the time
creatures of space, the Supreme Being is a revelation of the unity of the I AM. The
Trinity of Trinities is the final expression of all that is implied in the fifteen triunities and associated triodities.
The Supreme is the divine channel through which flows the creative infinity of the triodities
that crystallizes into the galactic panorama of space, against which takes place the magnificent personality drama of time:
the spirit conquest of energy-matter through the mediation of mind.

The
Sacred Spheres of Paradise Between the central Isle
of Paradise and the innermost of the Havona planetary circuits there are situated in space three lesser circuits of special spheres. The innermost circuit consists of the seven secret spheres of the
Universal Father. The second group is composed of the seven luminous worlds of the Eternal Son. In the outermost
circuit are the seven immense spheres of the Infinite Spirit. (These are the executive headquarters worlds of the Seven
Master Spirits.) The three
seven-world circuits of the Father, the Son, and the Spirit are spheres of unexcelled grandeur and unimagined glory.
Like Paradise they are eternal. The seven secret spheres of the Universal
Father, circulating about Paradise in close proximity to the eternal Isle, are highly reflective of the spiritual
luminosity of the central shining of the eternal Deities. They shed
this light of divine glory throughout Paradise and upon the seven circuits of Havona. The seven sacred worlds of the Eternal Son take origin in the impersonal energies of spirit luminosity. They
illuminate all Paradise and Havona with spiritual luminosity, and they directionize pure
spirit luminosity to the seven super universes. The seven worlds of
the Infinite Spirit are occupied by the Seven Master Spirits, who preside over the destinies of the seven super universes.
These spheres send forth the spiritual illumination of the Third Person of Deity to these creations of time and space
and Havona, but not the Isle of Paradise. The twenty-one spheres embrace
the potentials of the function of the master universe. The Seven Sacred Worlds of the Father
The Paradise worlds of the Father are directed by the highest order of the Stationary Sons
of the Trinity, the Trinitized Secrets of Supremacy. 1. Divinington This world is, in a unique sense, the "bosom of the Father," the personal-communion sphere of the
Universal Father, and thereon is a special manifestation of his divinity. Divinington is the Paradise rendezvous of the Thought
Adjusters, but it is also the home of numerous other entities, personalities, and other beings taking origin in the Universal
Father. 2. Sonarington This sphere is the "bosom
of the Son," the personal receiving world of the Eternal Son. It is the Paradise headquarters of the descending and ascending
Sons of God when, and after, they are fully accredited and finally approved. 3. Spiritington
This world is the "bosom of the Spirit," the Paradise home of the high beings
that exclusively represent the Infinite Spirit. Here forgather the Seven Master Spirits and certain of their offspring from
all universes. At this celestial abode may also be found numerous unrevealed orders of spirit personalities, beings assigned
to the manifold activities of the universe not associated with the plans of upstepping the mortal creatures of time to the
Paradise levels of eternity. 4. Vicegerington This
planet is the "bosom of the Father and the Son" and is the secret sphere of certain unrevealed beings who take origin
by the acts of the Father and the Son. This is also the Paradise home of many glorified beings of complex ancestry, those
whose origin is complicated because of the many diverse techniques operative in the seven super universes. 5. Solarington This world is the "bosom of the Father and the Spirit"
and is the rendezvous of a magnificent host of unrevealed beings of origin in the conjoint acts of the Universal Father and
the Infinite Spirit, beings who partake of the traits of the Father in addition to their Spirit inheritance. This is also the home of the Solitary Messengers and of other personalities of the superangelic orders. During
the present universe age this is also the status sphere of the Universe Power Directors. There
are numerous additional orders of spirit personalities, beings unknown to mortal man, who look upon Solitarington as their
Paradise home sphere. It should be remembered that all divisions and levels of universe activities are just as fully provided
with spirit ministers as is the realm concerned with helping mortal man ascend to his divine Paradise destiny.
6. Seraphington This sphere is the "bosom of the Son and
the Spirit" and is the home world of the vast hosts of unrevealed beings created by the Son and the Spirit. This is also
the destiny sphere of all ministering orders of the angelic hosts, including supernaphim, seconaphim, and seraphim.
7. Ascendington This unique world is the "bosom of the Father,
Son, and Spirit," the rendezvous of the ascendant creatures of space, the receiving sphere of the pilgrims of time who
are passing through the Havona universe on their way to Paradise. Ascendington is the actual Paradise home of the ascendant
souls of time and space until they attain Paradise status. Mortals will spend most of their Havona "vacations"
on Ascendington. During their Havona life Ascendington will be to mortals what the reversion directors were during the local
and super universe ascension. Here they engage in thousands of activities which are beyond the grasp of mortal imagination.
The Sacred Worlds of the Eternal Son
The seven luminous spheres of the Eternal Son are the worlds of the seven phases of pure-spirit existence.
These shining orbs are the source of the threefold light of Paradise and Havona, their influence being largely, but not wholly,
confined to the central universe.
Personality is not present on these
Paradise satellites; therefore is there little concerning these pure-spirit abodes which can be presented to the mortal and
material personality. These worlds teem with the other-than-personal life of the beings of the Eternal Son. These entities
probably are being assembled for ministry in the projected new universes of outer space.
The Worlds of the Infinite Spirit
Between
the inner circuit of Havona and the shining spheres of the Eternal Son there circle the seven orbs of the Infinite Spirit.
These worlds are inhabited by the offspring of the Infinite Spirit, by the trinitized sons of glorified created personalities,
and by other types of unrevealed beings concerned with the effective administration of the many enterprises of the various
realms of universe activities.
The
Seven Master Spirits are the supreme and ultimate representatives of the Infinite Spirit. They maintain their personal stations,
their power focuses, on the periphery of Paradise, but all operations concerned with their management and direction of the
grand universe are conducted on and from these seven special executive spheres of the Infinite Spirit. The Seven Master Spirits
are, in reality, the mind-spirit balance wheel of the universe of universes, an all-embracing, all-encompassing, and all-co-ordinating
power of central location.
From
these seven special spheres the Master Spirits operate to equalize and stabilize the cosmic-mind circuits of the grand universe.
Whereas the spiritual presence of absolute and existential Deity is in no manner whatever influenced by attitudes of loyalty
or disloyalty on the part of created beings, the functioning presence of subabsolute and experiential Deity is definitely
and directly influenced by the decisions, choices, and will-attitudes of such finite creature beings - by the loyalty and
devotion of the individual being, planet, system, constellation, or universe. But this spiritual presence of divinity is not
whimsical nor arbitrary; its experiential variance is inherent in the freewill endowment of personal creatures.

Trinity
Origin Beings The Paradise Citizens
Residing on Paradise are numerous groups of superb beings, the Paradise Citizens. They
are not directly concerned with the scheme of perfecting ascending will creatures and are not, therefore, fully revealed to
Urantia mortals. There are more than three thousand orders of these supernal intelligences, the last group having been personalized
simultaneously with the mandate of the Trinity which promulgated the creative plan of the seven superuniverses of time and
space. None of the paradise citizens have ever gone
astray. And yet, they are all freewill endowed in the highest sense of that concept. The Coordinate Trinity Origin Beings Trinity-origin beings possess prerogatives of transit which make them independent of transport personalities,
such as seraphim. Trinity origin beings are able to intercommunicate
instantaneously. These
Paradise Representatives counsel the rulers of the universe levels. Supreme
Trinity Personalities Supreme Trinity Personalities are all
created for specific service. They are designed by the divine Trinity for the fulfillment of certain specific duties, and
they are qualified to serve with perfection of technique and finality of devotion in revealing the administrative policies
of the Paradise Trinity. There are seven orders of the Supreme Trinity Personalities: 1. Trinitized Secrets of Supremacy work from the Sacred Spheres of Paradise. 2. Eternals of Days - Havona level. 3. Ancients
of Days - Super universes level. 4. Perfections of Days
- Major Sectors level. 5. Recents of Days - Minor Sectors
level. 6. Unions of Days - Local Universes level.
7. Faithfuls of Days - Constellations level. These beings of administrative perfection are of definite and final numbers. Their creation is a past event;
no more are being personalized. Throughout the grand universe
these Supreme Trinity Personalities represent the administrative policies of the Paradise Trinity; they represent the justice
and are the executive judgment of the Paradise Trinity.
They form an interrelated line of administrative perfection extending from the Paradise spheres of the Father to the headquarters
worlds of the local universes and to the capitals of their component constellations. All Trinity-origin beings are created in Paradise perfection in all their divine attributes. Only in the realms
of experience has the passing of time added to their equipment for cosmic service. There is never any danger of default or
risk of rebellion with Trinity-origin beings. They are of divinity essence, and they have never been known to depart from
the divine and perfect path of personality conduct.

Children of the Infinite Spirit
The Seven Supreme Spirit Groups
The seven groups of Supreme Spirits constitute the nucleus of the functional family of the Third Source and
Center both as the Infinite Spirit and as the Conjoint Actor. The domain of the Supreme Spirits extends from the presence
of the Trinity on Paradise to the functioning of mind of the evolutionary mortal order on the planets of space.
The seven groups of Supreme Spirits unify the descending administrative levels and co-ordinate the manifold
functions of those personnel. Whether it is a Reflective Spirit group in liaison with the Ancients of Days, a Creative Spirit
acting in concert with a Michael Son, or the Seven Master Spirits encircuited around the Paradise Trinity, the activity of
the Supreme Spirits is encountered everywhere in the central universe, the super universes and local
universes. They function alike with the Trinity personalities of the order of "Days" and with the Paradise personalities of
the order of "Sons."
Together with their Infinite Mother Spirit, the Supreme Spirit groups are the immediate creators of the vast
creature family of the Third Source and Center. All orders of the ministering spirits spring from this association. Primary
supernaphim originate in the Infinite Spirit; secondary beings of this order are created by the Master Spirits; tertiary supernaphim
by the Seven Spirits of the Circuits. The Reflective Spirits, collectively, are the mother-makers of a marvelous order of
the angelic hosts, the mighty seconaphim of the superuniverse services.
A Creative Spirit is the mother of the angelic orders of a local creation. Such seraphic ministers
are original in each local universe, though they are fashioned after the patterns of the central universe. All these creators
of ministering spirits are only indirectly assisted by the central lodgment of the Infinite Spirit, the original and eternal
mother of all the angelic ministers.
The seven Supreme Spirit groups are the co-ordinators of the inhabited creation. The association of
their directing heads, the Seven Master Spirits, appears to co-ordinate the far-flung activities of God the Sevenfold.
The Seven Master Spirits
1. Collectively the Master Spirits near-equivalate to the divinity level of the Trinity of Paradise Deities.
2. Individually they exhaust the primary associable possibilities of triune Deity.
3. As diversified representatives of the Conjoint Actor they are the repositories of that spirit-mind-power
sovereignty of the Supreme Being which he does not yet personally exercise.
4. Through the Reflective Spirits they synchronize the super universe governments of the Ancients of Days
with Majeston, the Paradise center of universal reflectivity.
5. In their participation in the individualization of the local universe Divine Ministers, the Master Spirits
contribute to the last level of God the Sevenfold, the Creator Son-Creative Spirit union of the local universes.
Functional unity, inherent in the Conjoint Actor, is disclosed to the evolving universes in the Seven Master
Spirits, his primary personalities. But in the perfected super universes of the future this unity will undoubtedly be inseparable
from the experiential sovereignty of the Supreme.
The Universe Power Directors
Very little information concerning the controllers and regulators of the physical domain has ever been revealed. Only the
last of the following three groups of living beings having to do with force control and energy regulation in the master universe
may be discussed:
1. Primary Eventuated Master Force Organizers.
2. Associate Transcendental Master Force Organizers.
3. Universe Power Directors.
It is impossible to portray the individuality of the various groups of directors, centers, and controllers of universe
power. They are a unique group of living beings having to do with the intelligent regulation of energy throughout the
grand universe. Including the supreme directors, they embrace the following major divisions:
1. The Seven Supreme Power Directors.
2. The Supreme Power Centers.
3. The Master Physical Controllers.
4. The Morontia Power Supervisors.
The Supreme Power Directors and Centers have existed from the near times of eternity. The Seven Supreme Directors were
personalized by the Seven Master Spirits. They then collaborated with their parents in the production of more than ten
billion associates. Before the days of the power directors the energy circuits of space outside of the central universe were
under the intelligent supervision of the Master Force Organizers of Paradise.
In the scheme of ascendant progression to higher levels of existence ascenders have nothing directly to do with either
the supreme directors or the power centers. On certain rare occasions ascenders will have dealings with the physical controllers.
Ascenders will work freely with the supervisors of morontia power upon reaching the mansion worlds.

Higher Personalities of the Infinite Spirit Those Higher
Personalities of the Infinite Spirit noted function throughout the grand universe in seven divisions: 1. Solitary
Messengers Immediately following the creation of the Seven Spirits of the Havona Circuits, the Infinite Spirit
brought into being the vast corps of Solitary Messengers. There is no part of the universal creation which is pre-existent
to the Solitary Messengers except Paradise and the Havona circuits. They have functioned throughout the grand universe
from near eternity. They are fundamental to the divine technique of the Infinite Spirit for self-revelation to, and personal
contact with, the far-flung creations of time and space. 2. Universe Circuit Supervisors The vast power
currents of space and the circuits of spirit energy may seem to operate automatically, but such is not the case.
All these stupendous systems of energy are under control. They are subject to intelligent supervision. Universe Circuit
Supervisors are not concerned with the realms of purely physical or material energy (the domain of the Universe Power Directors),
but with the circuits of relative spiritual energy and with those modified circuits which are essential to the maintenance
of both the highly developed spiritual beings and the morontia or transition type of intelligent creatures. 3. Census
Directors Census Directors register the existence of a new will creature when the first act of will is performed;
they indicate the death of a will creature when the last act of will takes place. The partial emergence of will observed in
the reactions of certain of the higher animals does not belong to the domain of the Census Directors. They keep count of nothing
but bona fide will creatures, and they are responsive to nothing but will function. 4. Personal Aids of
the Infinite Spirit The Personal Aids of the Infinite Spirit exist for the exclusive assistance of the Paradise
presence of the Third Person of Deity. Although attached directly to the Infinite Spirit and located on Paradise, they flash
to and fro to the uttermost parts of creation. Wherever the circuits of the Conjoint Creator extend, there these Personal
Aids may appear for the purpose of executing the bidding of the Infinite Spirit. They traverse space much as do the Solitary
Messengers, but they are not persons in the sense that the messengers are. 5. Associate Inspectors
Associate Inspectors work under the direct supervision of the Seven Supreme Executives, being their personal and powerful
representatives to the local universes of time and space. An inspector is stationed on the headquarters sphere of each local
creation and is a close associate of the resident Union of Days. The Associate Inspectors receive reports and recommendations
only from their subordinates, the Assigned Sentinels, stationed on the capitals of the local systems of inhabited worlds.
They make reports only to their immediate superior, the Supreme Executive of the superuniverse concerned. 6. Assigned
Sentinels Much as an Associate Inspector represents the Seven Supreme Executives to a whole local universe, so
in each of the ten thousand systems of that local creation there is an Assigned Sentinel, who acts as the direct representative
of the far-distant and supreme board of supercontrol for the affairs of all seven superuniverses. The sentinels on duty in
the local system governments of Orvonton are acting under the direct authority of Supreme Executive Number Seven, the co-ordinator
of the seventh superuniverse. But in their administrative organization all sentinels commissioned in a local universe are
subordinate to the Associate Inspector stationed at universe headquarters. 7. Graduate Guides. The Graduate
Guides, as a group, sponsor and conduct the high university of technical instruction and spiritual training which is so essential
to mortal attainment of the goal of the ages: God, rest, and then eternity of perfected service. These highly personal beings
take their name from the nature and purpose of their work. They are exclusively devoted to the tasks of guiding the mortal
graduates from the super universes of time through the Havona course of instruction and training which serves to prepare the
ascending pilgrims for admission to Paradise and the Corps of the Finality. Solitary Messengers, Circuit Supervisors,
Census Directors, and the Personal Aids are characterized by the possession of tremendous endowments of antigravity. The Solitary
Messengers are without known general headquarters; they roam the universe of universes. The Universe Circuit Supervisors and
the Census Directors maintain headquarters on the capitals of the superuniverses. The Personal Aids of the Infinite Spirit
are stationed on the central Isle of Light. The Associate Inspectors and the Assigned Sentinels are respectively stationed
on the capitals of the local universes and on the capitals of their component systems. The Graduate Guides are resident in
the Havona universe and function on all its billion worlds. Most of these higher personalities have stations in the local
universes, but they are not organically attached to the administrations of the evolutionary realms.

Ministering Spirits of the Infinite Spirit
Supernaphim are the ministering spirits of Paradise and the central universe. They are the highest order
of the lowest group of the children of the Infinite Spirit - the angelic hosts. Such ministering spirits are to be encountered
from the Isle of Paradise to the worlds of time and space. No major part of the organized and inhabited creation is without
their services.
Angels are the ministering-spirit associates of the evolutionary and ascending will creatures of all space.
They are also the colleagues and working associates of the higher hosts of the divine personalities of the spheres. The angels
of all orders are distinct personalities and are highly individualized. They possess very social natures and have an
associative capacity far transcending that of human beings.
The ministering spirits of the grand universe are classified as follows:
1. Supernaphim
Primary supernaphim are the supernal servants of the Deities on the eternal Isle of Paradise. These high
supernaphim are perfect beings, supreme in perfection, but they are not absonite, neither are they absolute. Being of the
essence of perfection, these children of the Infinite Spirit work interchangeably and at will in all phases of their manifold
duties. They do not function extensively outside Paradise.
2. Seconaphim; 3. Tertiaphim; 4. Omniaphim
The Ministering Spirits of the Superuniverses are the seconaphim, the tertiaphim, and the omniaphim. The Seconaphim
are the children of the Reflective Spirits. They variously serve in the seven superuniverses. Tertiaphim,
of origin in the Infinite Spirit, are eventually dedicated to the liaison service of the Creator Sons and the Ancients of
Days. Omniaphim are created concertedly by the Infinite Spirit and the Seven Supreme Executives, and they are the exclusive
servants of the latter.
5. Seraphim; 6. Cherubim and Sanobim; 7. Midway Creatures
The Ministering Spirits of the Local Universes embrace the seraphim and their assistants, the cherubim.
With these offspring of a Universe Mother Spirit mortal ascenders have initial contact. The midway creatures, of nativity
on the inhabited worlds, are not really of the angelic orders proper, though often functionally grouped with the ministering
spirits.
The individual members of the angelic orders are not altogether stationary as to personal status in the universe.
Angels of certain orders may become Paradise Companions for a season; some become Celestial Recorders; others ascend to the
ranks of the Technical Advisers. Certain of the cherubim may aspire to seraphic status and destiny, while evolutionary seraphim
can achieve the spiritual levels of the ascending Sons of God.

Nuclear Isle of Paradise Functions
The Seven Power Supervisors reside on peripheral Paradise where
they function as the physical energy regulators of the Grand Universe.
Time originates above Upper Paradise.
Space originates just below Nether Paradise.
Space alternately contracts and expands every billion years in
a phenomenon called space respiration. The entire cycle requires approximately two billion years.
Space rarified Paradise matter is stretched to the edge of
the Master Universe by the Unqualified Absolute.
The Personality Gravity Circuit returns persons to the
Universal Father.
The Spiritual Gravity Circuit returns lasting value to
the Eternal Son.
The Physical Gravity Circuit returns energy to Paradise.

Grand Universe Controllers
Space-force is changed into space-energy and then into the energy of gravity control. Physical energy is ripened
to the point where it can be directed into channels of power and made to serve the manifold purposes of the universe Creators.
This work is carried on by the versatile directors, centers, and controllers of physical energy in the grand universe - the
organized and inhabited creations. These Universe Power Directors assume the more or less complete control of twenty-one of
the thirty phases of energy constituting the present energy system of the seven superuniverses.
This domain of power-energy-matter is the realm of the intelligent activities of God the Sevenfold, functioning under
the time-space overcontrol of the Supreme.
The sevenfold controller groups are functionally inseparable from God the Sevenfold and constitute
the physical-control level of this Deity association.
The Sevenfold Controllers of the Grand Universe
1. The Universal Father (The Source of Paradise)
2. The Isle of Paradise
3. The Infinite Spirit - The God of Action
4. The Almighty Supreme
5. The Supreme Power Directors
The bifurcation of energy and spirit (stemming from the conjoint presence of the Eternal Son and the Paradise Isle) was
symbolized in the super universe sense when the Seven Master Spirits unitedly engaged in their first act of collective creation.
This episode witnessed the appearance of the Seven Supreme Power Directors. Concomitant therewith, the spiritual circuits
of the Master Spirits contrastively differentiated from the physical activities of power director supervision. Immediately the
cosmic mind appeared as a new factor coordinating matter and spirit.
6. The Supreme Power Centers
7. The Master Physical Controllers
The Unrevealed Architects of Being
The absonite Architects of the Master Universe are unique universe planners who are neither creators nor creatures.
The absonite architects eventuate the plan; the Supreme Creators bring it into existence; the Supreme Being will consummate
its fullness as it was time created by the Supreme Creators, and as it was space forecast by the Master Architects.
The Living Organism of the Grand Universe (The Almighty Supreme)
The grand universe is not only a material creation of physical grandeur, spirit sublimity, and intellectual magnitude,
it is also a magnificent and responsive living organism. There is actual life pulsating throughout the mechanism of the vast
creation of the vibrant cosmos. The physical reality of the universes is symbolic of the perceivable reality of the Almighty
Supreme; and this material and living organism is penetrated by intelligence circuits, even as the human body is traversed
by a network of neural sensation paths.
The physical universe is permeated by energy lanes which effectively activate material creation, even as the human body
is nourished and energized by the circulatory distribution of the assimilable energy products of nourishment. The vast universe
contains coordinating centers of magnificent overcontrol that might be compared to the delicate chemical-control
system of the human mechanism.
The Almighty Supreme
The Almighty Supreme is a living and evolving Deity of power and personality. His present domain, the grand universe, is
also a growing realm of power and personality. His destiny is perfection, but his present experience encompasses the elements
of growth and incomplete status.
The Almighty Supreme is evolving as the overcontroller of the physical power of the grand universe. In the present universe
age this potential of physical power appears to be centered in the Seven Supreme Power Directors, who operate through the
fixed locations of the power centers and through the mobile presences of the physical controllers.
The completed realization of all finite potentials equals the completion of the realization of all evolutionary experience.
The Supreme, in this stage of development, will be as discretely personalized as is the Eternal Son, as concretely powerized
as is the Isle of Paradise, as completely unified as is the Conjoint Actor, and all of this within the limitations of the
finite possibilities of Supremacy at the culmination of the present universe age.
Summary
In the final analysis, all energy responds to mind, and the physical controllers are the children of the mind God, who
is the activator of Paradise pattern. The intelligence of the power directors is unremittingly devoted to the task of bringing
about material control.
Their struggle for physical dominance over the relationships of energy and the motions of mass will not cease until
they achieve finite victory over the energies and masses which constitute their perpetual domains of activity.
There is an interdependence of all forces and personalities throughout the universe of universes. Creator Sons and Creative
Spirits depend on the co-operative function of the power centers and physical controllers in the organization of universes;
the Supreme Power Directors are incomplete without the overcontrol of the Master Spirits. In a human being the mechanism of
physical life is responsive, in part, to the dictates of (personal) mind. This very mind may, in turn, become dominated by
the leadings of purposive spirit, and the result of such evolutionary development is the production of a new child of the
Supreme, a new personal unification of the several kinds of cosmic reality.

Levels of Reality
The present grand universe and the emerging master universe are made up of many forms and phases of reality that exist
on several levels of functional activity:
1. Incomplete finites. This is the present status of the ascending creatures of the grand universe, the present
status of Earth mortals. This level embraces creature existence from the planetary human up to, but not including,
destiny attainers. It pertains to universes from early physical beginnings up to, but not including, settlement in
light and life.
2. Maximum finites. This is the present status of all experiential creatures who have attained destiny as revealed
within the scope of the present universe age. Even universes can attain to the maximum of status, both spiritually and physically.
3. Transcendentals. This superfinite level follows finite progression. It implies the prefinite genesis of finite
beginnings and the postfinite significance of all apparent finite endings or destinies. Much of Paradise-Havona appears
to be on the transcendental order.
4. Ultimates. This level encompasses that which is of master universe significance and impinges on the destiny level
of the completed master universe. Paradise-Havona (especially the circuit of the Father's worlds) is in many respects of ultimate
significance.
5. Coabsolutes. This level implies the projection of experientials upon a super master universe field of
creative expression.
6. Absolutes. This level connotes the eternity presence of the seven existential Absolutes.
7. Infinity. This level is pre-existential and post-experiential. Unqualified unity of infinity is a hypothetical
reality before all beginnings and after all destinies.
The levels of reality are compromise symbolizations of the present universe age for the mortal perspective.
The concepts presented are relative to mortal comprehension.
Reality growth is conditioned by the circumstances of the successive universe ages. The central universe underwent
no evolutionary change in the Havona age, but in the present epochs of the superuniverse age it is undergoing certain progressive
changes induced by coordination with the evolutionary super universes. The seven super universes, now evolving, will sometime
attain the settled status of light and life, will attain the growth limit for the present universe age. But beyond doubt,
the next age, the age of the first outer space level, will release the super universes from the destiny limitations of the
present age. Repletion is continually being superimposed upon completion.
1. Primary Association of Finite Functionals
The primary or spirit-origin phases of finite reality find immediate expression on creature levels as perfect personalities
and on universe levels as the perfect Havona creation. Eventually all secondary or perfecting finites are to attain a level
equal to that of primary perfection, but such destiny is subject to a time delay. The super universe time lag provides for
creature participation in evolutionary growth.
2. Secondary Supreme Finite Integration
As God the Sevenfold functionally coordinates finite evolution, so the Supreme Being eventually synthesizes destiny attainment.
The concept of the Supreme must provide for the differential recognition of spirit person, evolutionary power,
and power-personality synthesis - the unification of evolutionary power with and its dominance by spirit personality.
Experiential Deity culminates the long evolutionary struggle by investing the power product of time and space with the
spirit presence and divine personality resident in the central creation.
3. Transcendental Tertiary Reality Association
The absonite architects eventuate the plan; the Supreme Creators bring it into existence; the Supreme Being will consummate
its fullness as it was time created by the Supreme Creators, and as it was space forecast by the Master Architects.
During the present universe age the administrative coordination of the master universe is the function of the Architects
of the Master Universe. The appearance of the Almighty Supreme at the termination of the present universe age will signify
that the evolutionary finite has attained the first stage of experiential destiny. This event will lead to the completed function
of the first experiential Trinity - the union of the Supreme Creators, the Supreme Being, and the Architects of the Master
Universe. This Trinity is destined to effect the further evolutionary integration of the master creation.
As the universes expand, gravity and love reach out into time-organizing space. Gravity action is penetrating the space
presence of the Unqualified Absolute. Spirit creatures are evolving and expanding within the divinity presence of the
Deity Absolute. Both cosmic and spirit evolution are by mind. Experience is unifying on
finite deity levels as the Supreme Being, and coordinating on transcendental levels as the Trinity Ultimate.
4. Ultimate Quartan Integration
The Paradise Trinity coordinates in the ultimate sense but functions in this respect as a self-qualified absolute;
the experiential Trinity Ultimate coordinates the transcendental as a transcendental. In the eternal future this experiential
Trinity will, through augmenting unity, further activate the eventuating presence of Ultimate Deity.
While the Trinity Ultimate is destined to co-ordinate the master creation, God the Ultimate is the transcendental power-personalization
of the directionization of the entire master universe. The completed eventuation of the Ultimate implies the completion of
the master creation and connotes the full emergence of this transcendental Deity.
What changes will be inaugurated by the full emergence of the Ultimate is not known. But as the Supreme is now spiritually
and personally present in Havona, so the Ultimate is also present there, but in the absonite and super personal
sense.
The personal values of the Ultimate Deity transcendental divinity will be experiencible by all personalities who have been
participants in the actualization of this Deity level. Transcendence of the finite can lead only to ultimate attainment.
God the Ultimate exists in transcendence of time and space but is nonetheless subabsolute notwithstanding inherent capacity
for functional association with absolutes.
5. Coabsolute or Fifth-Phase Association
The Ultimate is the apex of transcendental reality even as the Supreme is the capstone of evolutionary-experiential
reality. The actual emergence of these two experiential Deities lays the foundation for the second experiential Trinity.
This is the Trinity Absolute, the union of God the Supreme, God the Ultimate, and the unrevealed Consummator of Universe
Destiny. This Trinity has theoretical capacity to activate the Absolutes of potentiality - Deity, Universal, and Unqualified.
The completed formation of this Trinity Absolute could take place only after the completed evolution of the entire master
universe, from Havona to the fourth and outermost space level.
The three Absolutes - Deity, Universal, and Unqualified - are not trinity, for all are not deity. Only the deified can
become trinity; all other associations are triunities or triodities.
6. Absolute or Sixth-Phase Integration
The present potential of the master universe is not absolute. It may be near-ultimate. It is deemed impossible
to achieve the full revelation of absolute meaning-values within the scope of a subabsolute cosmos. It is difficult to conceive
of a total expression of the limitless possibilities of the three Absolutes or even the experiential personalization of God
the Absolute on the now impersonal level of the Deity Absolute.
The space-stage of the master universe seems to be adequate for the actualization of the Supreme Being, for the formation
and full function of the Trinity Ultimate, for the eventuation of God the Ultimate, and even for the inception of the Trinity
Absolute. Concepts regarding the full function of this second experiential Trinity seem to imply something beyond the
wide-spreading master universe.
The final developments of the Absolute Trinity will probably take place out on a super ultimate stage of action, an illimitable
cosmos beyond the master universe. There it becomes possible to conjecture that the completed function of the Trinity Absolute
will achieve final expression in the creations of infinity and will consummate the absolute actualization of all potentials.
7. Finality of Destiny
Destiny is established by the volitional act of the Deities who constitute the Paradise Trinity.
Destiny is established in the vastness of the three great potentials whose absoluteness encompasses the possibilities of
all future development.
Destiny is probably consummated by the act of the Consummator of Universe Destiny, and this act is probably involved
with the Supreme and the Ultimate in the Trinity Absolute.
Any experiential destiny can be at least partially comprehended by experiencing creatures; but a destiny which impinges
on infinite existentials is hardly comprehensible. Finality destiny is an existential-experiential attainment which appears
to involve the Deity Absolute. The Deity Absolute stands in eternity relationship with the Unqualified Absolute by virtue
of the Universal Absolute. And these three Absolutes, experiential in possibility, are actually existential and more, being
limitless, timeless, spaceless, boundless, and measureless are truly infinite.
No matter how much one may grow in Father comprehension, there will always remain much more of him, the existence of which
is not even suspected. This is just as true on transcendental levels as it is in the domains of finite existence. The quest
for God is endless.
If the three absolute potentials could ever become completely actualized, it would be possible to conceive of the final
integration of total reality. This developmental realization is predicated on the completed actualization of the Unqualified,
Universal, and Deity Absolutes, the three potentialities whose union constitutes the latency of the I AM, the suspended realities
of eternity, the abeyant possibilities of all futurity, and more.
8. The Trinity of Trinities
The nature of the Trinity of Trinities is difficult to portray to the human mind. It is the actual summation of the entirety
of experiential infinity as is manifested in a theoretical infinity of eternity realization. In the Trinity
of Trinities the experiential infinite attains to identity with the existential infinite, and both are as
one in the pre-experiential, pre-existential I AM. The Trinity of Trinities is the final expression of all that is implied
in the fifteen triunities and associated triodities.
Finalities are difficult for relative beings to comprehend, be they existential or experiential; therefore must they always
be presented as relativities.
1. The Paradise Trinity, the association of the three Paradise Deities - Father, Son, and Spirit. It should
be remembered that the Paradise Trinity implies a threefold function - an absolute function, a transcendental function
(Trinity of Ultimacy), and a finite function (Trinity of Supremacy). The Paradise Trinity is any and all of these at any
and all times.
2. The Ultimate Trinity. This is the deity association of the Supreme Creators, God the Supreme, and the Architects
of the Master Universe.
3. The Absolute Trinity. This is the grouping of God the Supreme, God the Ultimate, and the Consummator of Universe
Destiny in regard to all divinity values.
The association of these three Trinities in the Trinity of Trinities provides for a possible unlimited integration of reality.
9. Existential Infinite Unification
In the concept of the Trinity of Trinities is postulated the possible experiential unification of limitless reality. It
is theorized that all this may happen in the utter remoteness of far-distant eternity. But there is nonetheless an actual
and present unification of infinity in this very age as in all past and future universe ages. Such unification is existential
in the Paradise Trinity.
Infinity unification as an experiential reality is unthinkably remote, but an unqualified unity of infinity now dominates
the present moment of universe existence and unites the divergencies of all reality with an existential majesty that is absolute.
Time, space, and experience are man's greatest aids to relative reality perception and yet his most formidable obstacles
to complete reality perception. Mortals and many other universe creatures find it necessary to think of potentials as being
actualized in space and evolving to fruition in time, but this entire process is a time-space phenomenon which does not actually
take place on Paradise and in eternity. On the absolute level there is neither time nor space; all potentials may be there
perceived as actuals.
The concept of the unification of all reality, be it in this or any other universe age, is basically twofold: existential
and experiential. Such a unity is in process of experiential realization in the Trinity of Trinities, but the degree of the
apparent actualization of this threefold Trinity is directly proportional to the disappearance of the qualifications and imperfections
of reality in the cosmos. But total integration of reality is unqualifiedly and eternally and existentially present in the
Paradise Trinity, within which, at this very universe moment, infinite reality is absolutely unified.
The Universal Father in the Paradise Trinity is the I AM of the Trinity of Trinities. The I AM, in the final analysis,
must exist before all existentials and after all experientials.
Sooner or later all universe personalities begin to realize that the final quest of eternity is the endless exploration
of infinity, the never-ending voyage of discovery into the absoluteness of the First Source and Center. Sooner or later we
all become aware that all creature growth is proportional to Father identification. We arrive at the understanding that living
the will of God is the eternal passport to the endless possibility of infinity itself. Mortals will sometime realize that
success in the quest of the Infinite is directly proportional to the achievement of Fatherlikeness, and that in this universe
age the realities of the Father are revealed within the qualities of divinity. These qualities of divinity are personally
appropriated by universe creatures in the experience of living divinely. To live divinely means to actually live
the will of God.
To material, evolutionary, finite creatures, a life predicated on the living of the Father's will leads directly to the
attainment of spirit supremacy in the personality arena and brings such creatures one step nearer the comprehension of the
Father-Infinite. Such a Father life is one predicated on truth, sensitive to beauty, and dominated by goodness. Such a God-knowing
person is inwardly illuminated by worship and outwardly devoted to the wholehearted service of the universal brotherhood of
all personalities, a service ministry which is filled with mercy and motivated by love, while all these life qualities are
unified in the evolving personality on ever-ascending levels of cosmic wisdom, self-realization, God-finding, and Father worship.

Paradise - Havona Personalities
Havona Natives
The Havona natives are the direct creation of the Paradise Trinity, and their number is beyond mortal
concept.
During the long sojourn of ascenders on the billion worlds of Havona culture, they develop an
eternal friendship with these superb beings.
Havona natives, like all other Trinity-origin personalities, are projected in divine perfection, and
as with other Trinity-origin personalities, the passing of time may add to their stores of experiential endowments. But unlike
the Stationary Sons of the Trinity, Havoners may evolve in status, may have an unrevealed future eternity-destiny. This is
illustrated by those Havoners who service-factualize capacity for fusion with a non-Adjuster Father fragment and so qualify
for membership in the Mortal Corps of the Finality. There are other finaliter corps open to these natives of the central universe,
as well.
The status evolution of Havona natives has occasioned much speculation. Since they are constantly
filtering into the several Paradise Corps of the Finality, and since no more are being created, it is apparent that the number
of natives remaining in Havona is constantly diminishing.
Paradise Citizens
Residing on Paradise are more than three thousand orders of supernal intelligences, the Paradise Citizens.
They were personalized simultaneously with the mandate of the Trinity which promulgated the creative plan of the seven superuniverses
of time and space. They are not directly concerned with the scheme of perfecting ascending will creatures and are not, therefore,
fully revealed to Earth mortals.
The Corps of The Finality
The Corps of Mortal Finaliters represents the present known destination of the ascending Adjuster-fused
mortals of time. But there are other groups who are also assigned to this corps. The primary finaliter corps is composed of
the following:
1. Havona Natives.
2. Gravity Messengers.
3. Glorified Mortals.
4. Adopted Seraphim.
5. Glorified Material Sons.
6. Glorified Midway Creatures.
These six groups of glorified beings compose this unique body of eternal destiny. While the Corps
of the Mortal Finality is mobilizing on Paradise, and while they now so extensively minister to the universes of space and
administer the worlds settled in light and life, their future destination must be the now-organizing universes of outer space.
The corps is organized in accordance with the working associations of the worlds of space and in keeping
with the associative experience acquired throughout the long and eventful ascendant career. All the ascendant creatures admitted
to this corps are received in equality, but this exalted equality in no way abrogates individuality or destroys personal identity.
During the present universe age the finaliters return to serve in the universes of time. They are
assigned to labor successively in the different super universes and never in their native super universes until after they
have served in all the other six super creations. In this way, they acquire the sevenfold concept of the Supreme Being.
One or more companies of the mortal finaliters are constantly in service on Earth.
The Ultimate Adventure
The senior Master Architect has the oversight of the seven Corps of the Finality, and they are:
1. The Corps of Mortal Finaliters.
2. The Corps of Paradise Finaliters.
3. The Corps of Trinitized Finaliters.
4. The Corps of Conjoint Trinitized Finaliters.
5. The Corps of Havona Finaliters.
6. The Corps of Transcendental Finaliters.
7. The Corps of Unrevealed Sons of Destiny.
The gathering together of these seven finaliter corps signifies reality mobilization of potentials,
personalities, minds, spirits, absonites, and experiential actualities that probably transcend even the future master universe
functions of the Supreme Being. These seven finaliter corps probably signify the present activity of the Ultimate Trinity
engaged in mustering the forces of the finite and the absonite in preparation for inconceivable developments in the universes
of outer space. Nothing like this mobilization has taken place since the near times of eternity when the Paradise Trinity
similarly mobilized the then existing personalities of Paradise and Havona and commissioned them as administrators and rulers
of the projected seven superuniverses of time and space. The seven finaliter corps represent the divinity response of the
grand universe to the future needs of the undeveloped potentials in the outer universes of future-eternal activities.

The Ancestry of Super Universe Energy
While creation and universe organization remain forever under the control
of the infinite Creators and their associates, the whole phenomenon proceeds in accordance with an ordained technique
and in conformity to the gravity laws of force, energy, and matter.
The universal force charge of space is not fully comprehended. The
organization of the material creations from the ultimatonic stage forward is known, the cosmic ancestry of the ultimatons
is not. (Some speculate that ultimatons are fragments of the Unqualified Absolute.)
The ancestral forces originate on Paradise. Though not responsive to Paradise gravity,
this force-charge of space, the ancestor of all materialization, always responds to the presence of nether Paradise, being
apparently circuited in and out of the nether Paradise center, the home of the Unqualified Absolute.
The Paradise force organizers transmute space potency into primordial
force and evolve this pre-material potential into the primary and secondary energy manifestations of physical
reality.
When this energy attains gravity-responding levels, the power directors and their
associates of the super universe regime appear upon the scene and begin their never-ending manipulations designed to establish
the manifold power circuits and energy channels of the universes of time and space.
Thus does physical matter appear in space, and so the stage is set
for the inauguration of universe organization.
Paradise force organizers
are nebulae originators. Using their space presence, they are able to initiate the tremendous cyclones of force
that once started, can never be stopped or limited until the all-pervading forces are mobilized for the eventual appearance
of the ultimatonic units of universe matter.
Thus are brought into being the spiral and other nebulae, the mother wheels of the direct-origin
suns and their varied systems. In outer space there may be seen ten different forms of nebulae, phases of primary universe
evolution. These vast energy wheels have the same origin as those in the seven super universes.

The Organization of Energy
Energy proceeds from Paradise. Pure energy partakes of the nature of the divine organization.
It is fashioned after the similitude of the three Gods embraced in one, as they function at the headquarters of the universe
of universes. All force is circuited in Paradise, comes from the Paradise Presences and returns thereto, and is in essence
a manifestation of the uncaused Cause - the Universal Father. Without the Father nothing that exists would exist.
Force derived from self-existent Deity is in itself ever existent. Force-energy is imperishable and indestructible. These
manifestations of the Infinite may be subject to unlimited transmutation, endless transformation, and eternal metamorphosis;
but in no sense or degree, not even to the slightest imaginable extent, could they or ever shall they suffer extinction. But
energy, though springing from the Infinite, is not infinitely manifest; there are outer limits to the presently conceived
master universe.
Energy is eternal but not infinite; it ever responds to the all-embracing grasp of Infinity. Forever force and energy go
on; having gone out from Paradise, they must return thereto, even if age upon age be required for the completion of the ordained
circuit. That which is of Paradise Deity origin can have only a Paradise destination or a Deity destiny.
The Master Force Organizers
The force organizers are resident on Paradise, but they function throughout the master universe,
especially in the domains of unorganized space. These extraordinary beings are neither creators nor creatures. They
comprise two grand divisions of service: Primary Eventuated Master Force Organizers and Associate Transcendental
Master Force Organizers.
These two mighty orders of primordial-force manipulators work exclusively under the supervision
of the Architects of the Master Universe.
Primary Master Force Organizers are the manipulators of the primordial or basic space-forces of the Unqualified Absolute;
they are nebulae creators. They are the living instigators of the energy cyclones of space and the early organizers
and directionizers of these gigantic manifestations. These force organizers transmute primordial force (pre-energy
not responsive to direct Paradise gravity) into primary or puissant energy, energy transmuting from the exclusive grasp
of the Unqualified Absolute to the gravity grasp of the Isle of Paradise.
The Primary Master Force Organizers are immediately succeeded by The Associate Force Organizers, who continue the process
of energy transmutation from the primary through the secondary or gravity-energy stage.
Upon the completion of the plans for the creation of a local universe, signalized by the arrival of a Creator Son, the
Associate Master Force Organizers give way to the orders of power directors acting in the super universe of astronomic jurisdiction.
But in the absence of such plans the associate force organizers continue on indefinitely in charge of these material creations,
even as they now operate in outer space.

Differentiating Force and Energy
Space Potency
Space potency is a prereality. It is the domain
of the Unqualified Absolute and is responsive only to the personal grasp of the Universal Father, notwithstanding that it
is modifiable by the presence of the Primary Master Force Organizers.
Space potency is not subject to the interactions
of any form of gravitation. Its meaning should convey the idea of the potencies and potentials existent within space. It
includes all those absolute influences and potentials which emanate from Paradise and constitute the space presence of the
Unqualified Absolute.
Space potency is spoken of as absoluta.
Pregravity
Stages (Force)
This is the first step in the individuation of space
potency into the pre-energy forms of cosmic force. This state is analogous to the concept of the primordial force-charge of
space, sometimes called pure energy or segregata.
Gravity
Stages (Energy)
This modification of the force-charge of space
is produced by the action of the Paradise force organizers. It signalizes the appearance of energy systems responsive to the
pull of Paradise gravity. This emergent energy is originally neutral but consequent upon further metamorphosis will exhibit
the so-called negative and positive qualities. These stages are designated ultimata.
Postgravity
Stages (Universe Power)
In
this stage, energy-matter discloses response to the control of linear gravity. In the central universe these physical
systems are threefold organizations known as triata. They are the super power mother systems of the creations of time
and space. The physical systems of the super universes are mobilized by the Universe Power Directors and their associates.
These material organizations are dual in constitution and are known as gravita.

Structure of the Master
Universe
The center and focal point of absolute material gravity is the Isle of Paradise, complemented
by the dark gravity bodies encircling Havona and equilibrated by the upper and nether space reservoirs.
All known emanations of nether Paradise invariably and unerringly
respond to the central gravity pull operating upon the endless circuits of the elliptical space levels of the master universe.
The relatively quiet zones between the space levels, such as the one separating the seven super universes from
the first outer space level, are enormous elliptical regions of quiescent space activities. These zones separate the vast
galaxies which race around Paradise in orderly procession.
Space Levels of the Master Universe
The universe of universes has dimensions. The whole vast aggregation of force-energy and matter-power functions as
an organized and co-ordinated whole. The proof of both a circular and delimited universe is the fact that all forms of basic
energy ever swing around the curved path of the space levels of the master universe in obedience to the incessant and absolute
pull of Paradise gravity.
If the master universe were not a series of elliptical space levels of lessened resistance to motion, alternating
with zones of relative quiescence, the cosmic energies would shoot off on a straight-line path into trackless space.
Proceeding outward from Paradise through the horizontal extension of pervaded space, the master universe exists
in six concentric ellipses.
1. The Central Universe - Havona.
2. The Seven Super Universes.
3. The First Outer Space Level.
4. The Second Outer Space Level.
5. The Third Outer Space Level.
6. The Fourth and Outermost Space Level.
The central universe is the creation of eternity; the seven super universes are the creations of time; the four
outer space levels are undoubtedly destined to eventuate-evolve the ultimacy of creation.
About one-half million light-years beyond the periphery of the present grand universe are the beginnings
of a zone of an unbelievable energy action which increases in volume and intensity for over twenty-five million light-years.
These tremendous wheels of energizing forces are situated in the first outer space level, a continuous belt of cosmic
activity encircling the whole of the known, organized, and inhabited creation.
Far out in space, at an enormous distance from the seven inhabited super universes, are assembling the vast and
unbelievably stupendous circuits of force and materializing energies.

Absolute Presence Circuits (Gravity) - Scroll to pp. 131 - 133
|
Universal Gravity
Absolute Presence
Circuits
All forms of force-energy (material, mindal, or spiritual), are subject to the grasps of the universal
presences, called, gravity.
These presence
circuits are: the personality gravity of the Universal Father, the spiritual gravity of the Eternal
Son, the mind gravity of the Conjoint Actor, and the material gravity of the eternal Isle.
The four circuits are
not related to the nether Paradise force center. They are neither force,
energy, nor power circuits. They are absolute presence circuits and like God are independent of
time and space.
1. The Personality Gravity of the Universal
Father
Personality also is responsive to gravity
- to the Father's exclusive circuit; but though this circuit is exclusive to the Father, he is not excluded from the other
circuits; the Universal Father is infinite and acts over all four absolute-gravity circuits in the master universe:
2. The Spirit Gravity of the Eternal
Son
At the present time practically the entire
spirit gravity of the Eternal Son is observable as functioning in the grand universe. It appears that the universes now evolving
in outer space are at the present time wholly nonspiritual. This fact explains why spirit-endowed beings have little or no
information about these vast energy manifestations aside from knowing the fact of their physical existence.
3 The Mind Gravity of the Conjoint
Actor
About eighty-five per cent of the mind-gravity
response to the intellectual drawing of the Conjoint Actor takes origin in the existing grand universe. This suggests that
mind activities are involved in connection with the observable physical activities now in progress throughout the realms of
outer space. It indicates that intelligent force organizers are at present directing universe evolution in the space levels
beyond the present outer limits of the grand universe.
4. The Cosmic Gravity of the Isle of
Paradise
The total gravity action on the grand
universe is a very small part of the estimated gravity pull of Paradise, computed on the basis of the gravity response of
basic physical units of universe matter. The central universe and the surrounding seven superuniverses are at the present
time making use of only about five per cent of the active functioning of physical gravity. Ninety-five per cent
of the active cosmic-gravity action of the Isle of Paradise is engaged in controlling material systems beyond the borders
of the present organized universes.

Seven Supreme Power Directors - Scroll to p. 320

The Seven Supreme Power Directors
The Seven Supreme Power Directors are the physical-energy
regulators of the grand universe. Their creation by the Seven Master Spirits is the first recorded instance of
the derivation of semi-material progeny from true spirit ancestry.
Each of the Master Spirits is in eternal union with one of the the Supreme Power Directors.
Their working partnership results in a unique association of physical and spiritual energies - of a spirit personality and
a semi-physical being.
The power directors function singly in the power-energy regulation of the super
universes but collectively in the administration of the central creation. They operate from Paradise
but maintain themselves as effective power centers in all divisions of the grand universe.
The mighty Seven Supreme Power Directors are the physical
ancestors of the vast host of the power centers and, through them, of the physical controllers scattered throughout the seven
super universes. Such subordinate physical-control organisms are basically uniform and identical except for the differential
toning of each super universe corps.

Universal outward expansion - p. 134

Space Respiration
All forms of force and all phases of energy circulate
throughout the universes and return by definite routes.
Space originates just below Paradise from a reservoir referred to as Nether Paradise.
Space alternately expands and contracts every billion years in a phenomenon termed "space respiration." The entire
cycle requires two billion years.
The space-force manifestations of this center are universal. They extend throughout all pervadable space.
Pervaded space is now approaching the mid-point of the expanding phase, while unpervaded space nears the mid-point
of the contracting phase. The outermost limits of both space extensions are, theoretically, now approximately equidistant
from Paradise.
The rarefied Paradise matter of space is pulled or stretched to the edge of the Master Universe by the Unqualified
Absolute.
Earth's local universe (Nebadon), and all the seven super universes are engaged in the present outward and uniform
expansion of all pervaded space in the two-billion-year cycles of space respiration.

Havona Level -
Dual Existence in Eternity and Time and Space
The perfect Central Universe of Havona consists of one billion worlds in seven concentric circles that orbit Paradise and
the Sacred Spheres of Paradise. Havona matter consists of one thousand elements. The standard day of Havona equals one thousand
Earth years. Each circuit of Havona has its own year determined by its orbit period.

Overview
of Reality At the dawn of time there was nothing but empty space
in the regions outside of the central universe. At the eternal core of the master universe there was only
Paradise with Havona encircling it. The eternal Paradise-Havona system has no origin in time. The concept of the entire master universe is eternal. It is forever living in the minds of its Master
Architects. These beings are superfinite, the living "blueprints" of God's whole plan for the total master creation.
Master Universe reality is rooted in the unbeginning existence of Havona. The first expression of master universe reality was the perfection of Havona in
the First Universe Age. Its next expression is in the Second Universe Age (the present age) when the imperfect super
universes of time enter a relationship with the perfect central universe of eternity to constitute the Grand Universe of growing evolutionary perfection. The final expressions
of universe reality (ages three and four) concern the outer universes and their future relationship with the grand
universe. These mobilizing physical creations of outer space are neither inhabited nor organized. They encircle
the presently inhabited and organized grand universe.

Havona
Natives and Eternals of Days Havona natives are the offspring of the Paradise Trinity. They function as the permanent citizens of the Central Universe
and as companions to the ascending sons of God. (All orders of beings
are self-governing by the time they reach the Havona level.) Each
of the billion worlds of Havona is directed by a Supreme Trinity Personality. These rulers are known as the Eternals of Days. They number exactly one billion, one for each of
the Havona spheres. While they are the offspring of the Paradise Trinity, there are no records of their origin. Forever
have these all-wise fathers ruled their exquisite worlds of the Paradise-Havona system. They function without rotation
or reassignment. The Eternals of Days are visible to all
will creatures dwelling in their domains. Periodically, they visit the headquarters spheres of the seven superuniverses.
They are close of kin to, and are the divine equals of, the Ancients of Days, who preside over the destinies of the seven
supergovernments. Except for the established orders of
life, such as the Havona natives and other living creatures of the central universe, the resident Eternals of Days have developed
their respective spheres entirely in accordance with their own personal ideas and ideals. They visit each other's planets,
but they do not copy or imitate; they are always and wholly original.
Every world in Havona is a place of everlasting beauty and is wholly unlike any other
world in the central universe. Ascending mortals spend a longer or shorter time on each of these unique and thrilling
spheres on their way inward through Havona to Paradise.
