Growth of the Trinity Concept

104:5.1There are cer­tain other tri­une re­la­tion­ships which are non-Fa­ther in con­sti­tu­tion, but they are not real tri­uni­ties, and they are al­ways dis­tin­guished from the Fa­ther tri­uni­ties. They are called var­i­ously, as­so­ciate tri­uni­ties, co-or­di­nate tri­uni­ties, and tri­odi­ties. They are con­se­quen­tial to the ex­is­tence of the tri­uni­ties. Two of these as­so­ci­a­tions are con­sti­tuted as fol­lows:

104:5.2The Tri­odity of Ac­tu­al­ity. This tri­odity con­sists in the in­ter­re­la­tion­ship of the three ab­so­lute ac­tu­als:

104:5.31. The Eter­nal Son.

104:5.42. The Par­a­dise Isle.

104:5.53. The Con­joint Ac­tor.

104:5.6The 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 the co-or­di­na­tion of the sum to­tal of ac­tu­al­ized re­al­ity—spirit, cos­mic, or mindal. It is un­qual­i­fied in ac­tu­al­ity.

104:5.7The Tri­odity of Po­ten­tial­ity. This tri­odity con­sists in the as­so­ci­a­tion of the three Ab­so­lutes of po­ten­tial­ity:

104:5.81. The De­ity Ab­so­lute.

104:5.92. The Uni­ver­sal Ab­so­lute.

104:5.103. The Un­qual­i­fied Ab­so­lute.

104:5.11Thus are in­teras­so­ci­ated the in­fin­ity reser­voirs of all la­tent en­ergy re­al­ity—spirit, mindal, or cos­mic. This as­so­ci­a­tion yields the in­te­gra­tion of all la­tent en­ergy re­al­ity. It is in­fi­nite in po­ten­tial.

104:5.12As the tri­uni­ties are pri­mar­ily con­cerned with the func­tional uni­fi­ca­tion of in­fin­ity, so are tri­odi­ties in­volved in the cos­mic ap­pear­ance of ex­pe­ri­en­tial De­i­ties. The tri­uni­ties are in­di­rectly con­cerned, but the tri­odi­ties are di­rectly con­cerned, in the ex­pe­ri­en­tial De­i­ties—Su­preme, Ul­ti­mate, and Ab­so­lute. They ap­pear in the emerg­ing power-per­son­al­ity syn­the­sis of the Su­preme Be­ing. And to the time crea­tures of space the Su­preme Be­ing is a rev­e­la­tion of the unity of the I AM.
