The Seven Supreme Spirit Groups

17:2.1The Re­flec­tive Spir­its are of di­vine Trin­ity ori­gin. There are fifty of these unique and some­what mys­te­ri­ous be­ings. Seven of these ex­traor­di­nary per­son­al­i­ties were cre­ated at a time, and each such cre­ative episode was ef­fected by a li­ai­son of the Par­a­dise Trin­ity and one of the Seven Mas­ter Spir­its.

17:2.2This mo­men­tous trans­ac­tion, oc­cur­ring in the dawn of time, rep­re­sents the ini­tial ef­fort of the Su­preme Cre­ator Per­son­al­i­ties, rep­re­sented by the Mas­ter Spir­its, to func­tion as cocre­ators with the Par­a­dise Trin­ity. This union of the cre­ative power of the Su­preme Cre­ators with the cre­ative po­ten­tials of the Trin­ity is the very source of the ac­tu­al­ity of the Su­preme Be­ing. There­fore, when the cy­cle of re­flec­tive cre­ation had run its course, when each of the Seven Mas­ter Spir­its had found per­fect cre­ative syn­chrony with the Par­a­dise Trin­ity, when the forty-ninth Re­flec­tive Spirit had per­son­al­ized, then a new and far-reach­ing re­ac­tion oc­curred in the De­ity Ab­so­lute which im­parted new per­son­al­ity pre­rog­a­tives to the Su­preme Be­ing and cul­mi­nated in the per­son­al­iza­tion of Maj­es­ton, the re­flec­tiv­ity chief and Par­a­dise cen­ter of all the work of the forty-nine Re­flec­tive Spir­its and their as­so­ciates through­out the uni­verse of uni­verses.

17:2.3Maj­es­ton is a true per­son, the per­sonal and in­fal­li­ble cen­ter of re­flec­tiv­ity phe­nom­ena in all seven super­uni­verses of time and space. He main­tains per­ma­nent Par­a­dise head­quar­ters near the cen­ter of all things at the ren­dezvous of the Seven Mas­ter Spir­its. He is con­cerned solely with the co-or­di­na­tion and main­te­nance of the re­flec­tiv­ity ser­vice in the far-flung cre­ation; he is not oth­er­wise in­volved in the ad­min­is­tra­tion of uni­verse af­fairs.

17:2.4Maj­es­ton is not in­cluded in our cat­a­logue of Par­a­dise per­son­al­i­ties be­cause he is the only ex­ist­ing per­son­al­ity of di­vin­ity cre­ated by the Su­preme Be­ing in func­tional li­ai­son with the De­ity Ab­so­lute. He is a per­son, but he is ex­clu­sively and ap­par­ently au­to­mat­i­cally con­cerned with this one phase of uni­verse econ­omy; he does not now func­tion in any per­sonal ca­pac­ity with re­la­tion to other (non­re­flec­tive) or­ders of uni­verse per­son­al­i­ties.

17:2.5The cre­ation of Maj­es­ton sig­nal­ized the first su­preme cre­ative act of the Su­preme Be­ing. This will to ac­tion was vo­li­tional in the Su­preme Be­ing, but the stu­pen­dous re­ac­tion of the De­ity Ab­so­lute was not fore­known. Not since the eter­nity-ap­pear­ance of Ha­vona had the uni­verse wit­nessed such a tremen­dous fac­tu­al­iza­tion of such a gi­gan­tic and far-flung align­ment of power and co-or­di­na­tion of func­tional spirit ac­tiv­i­ties. The De­ity re­sponse to the cre­ative wills of the Su­preme Be­ing and his as­so­ciates was vastly be­yond their pur­pose­ful in­tent and greatly in ex­cess of their con­cep­tual fore­casts.

17:2.6We stand in awe of the pos­si­bil­ity of what the fu­ture ages, wherein the Su­preme and the Ul­ti­mate may at­tain new lev­els of di­vin­ity and as­cend to new do­mains of per­son­al­ity func­tion, may wit­ness in the realms of the deiti­za­tion of still other un­ex­pected and un­dreamed of be­ings who will pos­sess unimag­ined pow­ers of en­hanced uni­verse co-or­di­na­tion. There would seem to be no limit to the De­ity Ab­so­lute’s po­ten­tial of re­sponse to such uni­fi­ca­tion of re­la­tion­ships be­tween ex­pe­ri­en­tial De­ity and the ex­is­ten­tial Par­a­dise Trin­ity.
