13:1.41. DI­VIN­ING­TON. This world is, in a unique sense, the “bo­som of the Fa­ther,” the per­sonal-com­mu­nion sphere of the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther, and thereon is a spe­cial man­i­fes­ta­tion of his di­vin­ity. Di­vin­ing­ton is the Par­a­dise ren­dezvous of the Thought Ad­justers, but it is also the home of nu­mer­ous other en­ti­ties, per­son­al­i­ties, and other be­ings tak­ing ori­gin in the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther. Many per­son­al­i­ties be­sides the Eter­nal Son are of di­rect ori­gin by the soli­tary acts of the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther. Only the Fa­ther frag­ments and those per­son­al­i­ties and other be­ings of di­rect and ex­clu­sive ori­gin in the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther frat­er­nize and func­tion on this abode.

13:2.7Even­tu­ally you will have full ac­cess to As­cend­ing­ton and rel­a­tive ac­cess to the other spheres of the Fa­ther ex­cept Di­vin­ing­ton. But even when you are granted per­mis­sion to land on five ad­di­tional se­cret spheres, af­ter you have be­come a fi­nal­i­ter, you will not be al­lowed to visit all sec­tors of such worlds. Nor will you be per­mit­ted to land on the shores of Di­vin­ing­ton, the “bo­som of the Fa­ther,” though you shall surely stand re­peat­edly at the “right hand of the Fa­ther.” Never through­out all eter­nity will there arise any ne­ces­sity for your pres­ence on the world of the Thought Ad­justers.

20:4.3When in­car­nated on ei­ther be­stowal or mag­is­te­rial mis­sions, the Par­a­dise Sons have ex­pe­ri­enced Ad­justers, and these Ad­justers are dif­fer­ent for each in­car­na­tion. The Ad­justers that oc­cupy the minds of the in­car­nated Sons of God can never hope for per­son­al­ity through fu­sion with the hu­man-di­vine be­ings of their in­dwelling, but they are of­ten per­son­al­ized by fiat of the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther. Such Ad­justers form the su­preme Di­vin­ing­ton coun­cil of di­rec­tion for the ad­min­is­tra­tion, iden­ti­fi­ca­tion, and dis­patch of Mys­tery Mon­i­tors to the in­hab­ited realms. They also re­ceive and ac­credit Ad­justers on their re­turn to the “bo­som of the Fa­ther” upon the mor­tal dis­so­lu­tion of their earthly taber­na­cles. In this way the faith­ful Ad­justers of the world judges be­come the ex­alted chiefs of their kind.

39:2.13The an­gels can­not trans­port com­bus­tion bod­ies—flesh and blood—such as you now have, but they can trans­port all oth­ers, from the low­est mor­ontia to the higher spirit forms. They do not func­tion in the event of nat­u­ral death. When you fin­ish your earthly ca­reer, your body re­mains on this planet. Your Thought Ad­juster pro­ceeds to the bo­som of the Fa­ther, and these an­gels are not di­rectly con­cerned in your sub­se­quent per­son­al­ity re­assem­bly on the iden­ti­fi­ca­tion man­sion world. There your new body is a mor­ontia form, one that can en­seraphim. You “sow a mor­tal body” in the grave; you “reap a mor­ontia form” on the man­sion worlds.

5:2.2God lives in ev­ery one of his spirit-born sons. The Par­a­dise Sons al­ways have ac­cess to the pres­ence of God, “the right hand of the Fa­ther,” and all of his crea­ture per­son­al­i­ties have ac­cess to the “bo­som of the Fa­ther.” This refers to the per­son­al­ity cir­cuit, when­ever, wher­ever, and how­ever con­tacted, or oth­er­wise en­tails per­sonal, self-con­scious con­tact and com­mu­nion with the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther, whether at the cen­tral abode or at some other des­ig­nated place, as on one of the seven sa­cred spheres of Par­a­dise.

188:3.83. The ac­quired spirit iden­tity of the man of Naz­a­reth which was built up dur­ing his life­time in the flesh, first, by the di­rect ef­forts of his Thought Ad­juster, and later, by his own per­fect ad­just­ment be­tween the phys­i­cal ne­ces­si­ties and the spir­i­tual re­quire­ments of the ideal mor­tal ex­is­tence, as it was ef­fected by his never-ceas­ing choice of the Fa­ther’s will, must have been con­signed to the cus­tody of the Par­a­dise Fa­ther. Whether or not this spirit re­al­ity re­turned to be­come a part of the res­ur­rected per­son­al­ity, we do not know, but we be­lieve it did. But there are those in the uni­verse who hold that this soul-iden­tity of Je­sus now re­poses in the “bo­som of the Fa­ther,” to be sub­se­quently re­leased for lead­er­ship of the Neb­a­don Corps of the Fi­nal­ity in their undis­closed des­tiny in con­nec­tion with the un­cre­ated uni­verses of the un­or­ga­nized realms of outer space.
