The Ascending Sons of God

Mighty Messenger

8. Son-Fused Mortals

40:8.1While prac­ti­cally all sur­viv­ing mor­tals are fused with their Ad­justers on one of the man­sion worlds or im­me­di­ately upon their ar­rival on the higher mor­ontia spheres, there are cer­tain cases of de­layed fu­sion, some not ex­pe­ri­enc­ing this fi­nal surety of sur­vival un­til they reach the last ed­u­ca­tional worlds of the uni­verse head­quar­ters; and a few of these mor­tal can­di­dates for never-end­ing life ut­terly fail to at­tain iden­tity fu­sion with their faith­ful Ad­justers.

40:8.2Such mor­tals have been deemed wor­thy of sur­vival by the ad­ju­di­ca­tional au­thor­i­ties, and even their Ad­justers, by re­turn­ing from Di­vin­ing­ton, have con­curred in their as­cen­sion to the man­sion worlds. Such be­ings have as­cended through a sys­tem, a con­stel­la­tion, and through the ed­u­ca­tional worlds of the Sal­ving­ton cir­cuit; they have en­joyed the “sev­enty times seven” op­por­tu­ni­ties for fu­sion and still have been un­able to at­tain one­ness with their Ad­justers.

40:8.3When it be­comes ap­par­ent that some syn­chro­niz­ing dif­fi­culty is in­hibit­ing Fa­ther fu­sion, the sur­vival ref­er­ees of the Cre­ator Son are con­vened. And when this court of in­quiry, sanc­tioned by a per­sonal rep­re­sen­ta­tive of the An­cients of Days, fi­nally de­ter­mines that the as­cend­ing mor­tal is not guilty of any dis­cov­er­able cause for fail­ure to at­tain fu­sion, they so cer­tify on the rec­ords of the lo­cal uni­verse and duly trans­mit this find­ing to the An­cients of Days. There­upon does the in­dwelling Ad­juster re­turn forth­with to Di­vin­ing­ton for con­fir­ma­tion by the Per­son­al­ized Mon­i­tors, and upon this leave-tak­ing the mor­ontia mor­tal is im­me­di­ately fused with an in­di­vid­u­al­ized gift of the spirit of the Cre­ator Son.

40:8.4Much as the mor­ontia spheres of Neb­a­don are shared with the Spirit-fused mor­tals, so do these Son-fused crea­tures share the ser­vices of Or­von­ton with their Ad­juster-fused breth­ren who are jour­ney­ing in­ward to­wards the far-dis­tant Isle of Par­a­dise. They are truly your breth­ren, and you will greatly en­joy their as­so­ci­a­tion as you pass through the train­ing worlds of the super­uni­verse.

40:8.5Son-fused mor­tals are not a nu­mer­ous group, there be­ing less than one mil­lion of them in the super­uni­verse of Or­von­ton. Aside from res­i­den­tial des­tiny on Par­a­dise they are in ev­ery way the equals of their Ad­juster-fused as­so­ciates. They fre­quently jour­ney to Par­a­dise on super­uni­verse as­sign­ment but sel­dom per­ma­nently re­side there, be­ing, as a class, con­fined to the super­uni­verse of their na­tiv­ity.
