The Eternal Isle of Paradise

11:5.1Con­cern­ing nether Par­a­dise, we know only that which is re­vealed; per­son­al­i­ties do not so­journ there. It has noth­ing what­ever to do with the af­fairs of spirit in­tel­li­gences, nor does the De­ity Ab­so­lute there func­tion. We are in­formed that all phys­i­cal-en­ergy and cos­mic-force cir­cuits have their ori­gin on nether Par­a­dise, and that it is con­sti­tuted as fol­lows:

11:5.21. Di­rectly un­der­neath the lo­ca­tion of the Trin­ity, in the cen­tral por­tion of nether Par­a­dise, is the un­known and un­re­vealed Zone of In­fin­ity.

11:5.32. This Zone is im­me­di­ately sur­rounded by an un­named area.

11:5.43. Oc­cu­py­ing the outer mar­gins of the un­der sur­face is a re­gion hav­ing mainly to do with space po­tency and force-en­ergy. The ac­tiv­i­ties of this vast el­lip­ti­cal force cen­ter are not iden­ti­fi­able with the known func­tions of any tri­unity, but the pri­mor­dial force-charge of space ap­pears to be fo­cal­ized in this area. This cen­ter con­sists of three con­cen­tric el­lip­ti­cal zones: The in­ner­most is the fo­cal point of the force-en­ergy ac­tiv­i­ties of Par­a­dise it­self; the out­er­most may pos­si­bly be iden­ti­fied with the func­tions of the Un­qual­i­fied Ab­so­lute, but we are not cer­tain con­cern­ing the space func­tions of the mid-zone.

11:5.5The in­ner zone of this force cen­ter seems to act as a gi­gan­tic heart whose pul­sa­tions di­rect cur­rents to the out­er­most bor­ders of phys­i­cal space. It di­rects and mod­i­fies force-en­er­gies but hardly drives them. The re­al­ity pres­sure-pres­ence of this pri­mal force is def­i­nitely greater at the north end of the Par­a­dise cen­ter than in the south­ern re­gions; this is a uni­formly reg­is­tered dif­fer­ence. The mother force of space seems to flow in at the south and out at the north through the op­er­a­tion of some un­known cir­cu­la­tory sys­tem which is con­cerned with the dif­fu­sion of this ba­sic form of force-en­ergy. From time to time there are also noted dif­fer­ences in the east-west pres­sures. The forces em­a­nat­ing from this zone are not re­spon­sive to ob­serv­able phys­i­cal grav­ity but are al­ways obe­di­ent to Par­a­dise grav­ity.

11:5.6The mid-zone of the force cen­ter im­me­di­ately sur­rounds this area. This mid-zone ap­pears to be static ex­cept that it ex­pands and con­tracts through three cy­cles of ac­tiv­ity. The least of these pul­sa­tions is in an east-west di­rec­tion, the next in a north-south di­rec­tion, while the great­est fluc­tu­a­tion is in ev­ery di­rec­tion, a gen­er­al­ized ex­pan­sion and con­trac­tion. The func­tion of this mid-area has never been re­ally iden­ti­fied, but it must have some­thing to do with re­cip­ro­cal ad­just­ment be­tween the in­ner and the outer zones of the force cen­ter. It is be­lieved by many that the mid-zone is the con­trol mech­a­nism of the midspace or quiet zones which sep­a­rate the suc­ces­sive space lev­els of the mas­ter uni­verse, but no ev­i­dence or rev­e­la­tion con­firms this. This in­fer­ence is de­rived from the knowl­edge that this mid-area is in some man­ner re­lated to the func­tion­ing of the non­per­vaded-space mech­a­nism of the mas­ter uni­verse.

11:5.7The outer zone is the largest and most ac­tive of the three con­cen­tric and el­lip­ti­cal belts of uniden­ti­fied space po­ten­tial. This area is the site of unimag­ined ac­tiv­i­ties, the cen­tral cir­cuit point of em­a­na­tions which pro­ceed space­ward in ev­ery di­rec­tion to the out­er­most bor­ders of the seven super­uni­verses and on be­yond to over­spread the enor­mous and in­com­pre­hen­si­ble do­mains of all outer space. This space pres­ence is en­tirely im­per­sonal not­with­stand­ing that in some undis­closed man­ner it seems to be in­di­rectly re­spon­sive to the will and man­dates of the in­fi­nite De­i­ties when act­ing as the Trin­ity. This is be­lieved to be the cen­tral fo­cal­iza­tion, the Par­a­dise cen­ter, of the space pres­ence of the Un­qual­i­fied Ab­so­lute.

11:5.8All forms of force and all phases of en­ergy seem to be en­cir­cuited; they cir­cu­late through­out the uni­verses and re­turn by def­i­nite routes. But with the em­a­na­tions of the ac­ti­vated zone of the Un­qual­i­fied Ab­so­lute there ap­pears to be ei­ther an out­go­ing or an in­com­ing—never both si­mul­ta­ne­ously. This outer zone pul­sates in age­long cy­cles of gi­gan­tic pro­por­tions. For a lit­tle more than one bil­lion Uran­tia years the space-force of this cen­ter is out­go­ing; then for a sim­i­lar length of time it will be in­com­ing. And the space-force man­i­fes­ta­tions of this cen­ter are uni­ver­sal; they ex­tend through­out all per­vad­able space.

11:5.9All phys­i­cal force, en­ergy, and mat­ter are one. All force-en­ergy orig­i­nally pro­ceeded from nether Par­a­dise and will even­tu­ally re­turn thereto fol­low­ing the com­ple­tion of its space cir­cuit. But the en­er­gies and ma­te­rial or­ga­ni­za­tions of the uni­verse of uni­verses did not all come from nether Par­a­dise in their pres­ent phe­nom­e­nal states; space is the womb of sev­eral forms of mat­ter and pre­mat­ter. Though the outer zone of the Par­a­dise force cen­ter is the source of space-en­er­gies, space does not orig­i­nate there. Space is not force, en­ergy, or power. Nor do the pul­sa­tions of this zone ac­count for the res­pi­ra­tion of space, but the in­com­ing and out­go­ing phases of this zone are syn­chro­nized with the two-bil­lion-year ex­pan­sion-con­trac­tion cy­cles of space.
