The Spheres of Light and Life

55:9.1The uni­fi­ca­tion of a whole con­stel­la­tion of set­tled sys­tems is at­tended by new dis­tri­bu­tions of ex­ec­u­tive au­thor­ity and ad­di­tional read­just­ments of uni­verse ad­min­is­tra­tion. This epoch wit­nesses ad­vanced at­tain­ment on ev­ery in­hab­ited world but is par­tic­u­larly char­ac­ter­ized by read­just­ments on the con­stel­la­tion head­quar­ters, with marked mod­i­fi­ca­tion of re­la­tion­ships with both the sys­tem super­vi­sion and the lo­cal uni­verse gov­ern­ment. Dur­ing this age many con­stel­la­tion and uni­verse ac­tiv­i­ties are trans­ferred to the sys­tem cap­i­tals, and the rep­re­sen­ta­tives of the super­uni­verse as­sume new and more in­ti­mate re­la­tions with the plan­e­tary, sys­tem, and uni­verse rulers. Con­comi­tant with these new as­so­ci­a­tions, cer­tain super­uni­verse ad­min­is­tra­tors es­tab­lish them­selves on the con­stel­la­tion cap­i­tals as vol­un­teer ad­vis­ers to the Most High Fa­thers.

55:9.2When a con­stel­la­tion is thus set­tled in light, the leg­isla­tive func­tion ceases, and the house of Sys­tem Sov­er­eigns, pre­sided over by the Most Highs, func­tions in­stead. Now, for the first time, such ad­min­is­tra­tive groups deal di­rectly with the super­uni­verse gov­ern­ment in mat­ters per­tain­ing to Ha­vona and Par­a­dise re­la­tion­ships. Oth­er­wise the con­stel­la­tion re­mains re­lated to the lo­cal uni­verse as be­fore. From stage to stage in the set­tled life the uni­v­i­ta­tia con­tinue to ad­min­is­ter the con­stel­la­tion mor­ontia worlds.

55:9.3As the ages pass, the Con­stel­la­tion Fa­thers take over more and more of the de­tailed ad­min­is­tra­tive or super­vis­ing func­tions which were for­merly cen­tered on the uni­verse head­quar­ters. By the at­tain­ment of the sixth stage of sta­bi­liza­tion these uni­fied con­stel­la­tions will have reached the po­si­tion of well-nigh com­plete au­ton­omy. En­trance upon the sev­enth stage of set­tled­ness will no doubt wit­ness the ex­al­ta­tion of these rulers to the true dig­nity sig­ni­fied by their names, the Most Highs. To all in­tents and pur­poses the con­stel­la­tions will then deal di­rectly with the super­uni­verse rulers, while the lo­cal uni­verse gov­ern­ment will ex­pand to grasp the re­spon­si­bil­i­ties of new grand uni­verse obli­ga­tions.
