46:3.1The super­uni­verse and Par­a­dise-Ha­vona broad­casts are re­ceived on Je­ru­sem in li­ai­son with Sal­ving­ton and by a tech­nique in­volv­ing the po­lar crys­tal, the sea of glass. In ad­di­tion to pro­vi­sions for the re­cep­tion of these ex­tra-Neb­a­don com­mu­ni­ca­tions, there are three dis­tinct groups of re­ceiv­ing sta­tions. These sep­a­rate but tri­cir­cu­lar groups of sta­tions are ad­justed to the re­cep­tion of broad­casts from the lo­cal worlds, from the con­stel­la­tion head­quar­ters, and from the cap­i­tal of the lo­cal uni­verse. All these broad­casts are au­to­mat­i­cally dis­played so as to be dis­cern­i­ble by all types of be­ings pres­ent in the cen­tral broad­cast am­phithe­ater; of all pre­oc­cu­pa­tions for an as­cen­dant mor­tal on Je­ru­sem, none is more en­gag­ing and en­gross­ing than that of lis­ten­ing in on the never-end­ing stream of uni­verse space re­ports.

46:3.2This Je­ru­sem broad­cast-re­ceiv­ing sta­tion is en­cir­cled by an enor­mous am­phithe­ater, con­structed of scin­til­lat­ing ma­te­ri­als largely un­known on Uran­tia and seat­ing over five bil­lion be­ings—ma­te­rial and mor­ontia—be­sides ac­com­mo­dat­ing in­nu­mer­able spirit per­son­al­i­ties. It is the fa­vorite di­ver­sion for all Je­ru­sem to spend their leisure at the broad­cast sta­tion, there to learn of the wel­fare and state of the uni­verse. And this is the only plan­e­tary ac­tiv­ity which is not slowed down dur­ing the re­ces­sion of light.

46:3.3At this broad­cast-re­ceiv­ing am­phithe­ater the Sal­ving­ton mes­sages are com­ing in con­tin­u­ously. Near by, the Eden­tia word of the Most High Con­stel­la­tion Fa­thers is re­ceived at least once a day. Pe­ri­od­i­cally the reg­u­lar and spe­cial broad­casts of Uversa are re­layed through Sal­ving­ton, and when Par­a­dise mes­sages are in re­cep­tion, the en­tire pop­u­la­tion is as­sem­bled around the sea of glass, and the Uversa friends add the re­flec­tiv­ity phe­nom­ena to the tech­nique of the Par­a­dise broad­cast so that ev­ery­thing heard be­comes vis­i­ble. And it is in this man­ner that con­tin­ual fore­tastes of ad­vanc­ing beauty and grandeur are af­forded the mor­tal sur­vivors as they jour­ney in­ward on the eter­nal ad­ven­ture.

46:3.4The Je­ru­sem send­ing sta­tion is lo­cated at the op­po­site pole of the sphere. All broad­casts to the in­di­vid­ual worlds are re­layed from the sys­tem cap­i­tals ex­cept the Mi­chael mes­sages, which some­times go di­rect to their des­ti­na­tions over the arch­an­gels’ cir­cuit.

110:4.1Ad­justers are able to re­ceive the con­tin­u­ous stream of cos­mic in­tel­li­gence com­ing in over the mas­ter cir­cuits of time and space; they are in full touch with the spirit in­tel­li­gence and en­ergy of the uni­verses. But these mighty in­dwellers are un­able to trans­mit very much of this wealth of wis­dom and truth to the minds of their mor­tal sub­jects be­cause of the lack of com­mon­ness of na­ture and the ab­sence of re­spon­sive rec­og­ni­tion.

110:7.6But with the vast ma­jor­ity of Uran­tians the Ad­juster must pa­tiently await the ar­rival of death de­liv­er­ance; must await the lib­er­a­tion of the emerg­ing soul from the well-nigh com­plete dom­i­na­tion of the en­ergy pat­terns and chem­i­cal forces in­her­ent in your ma­te­rial or­der of ex­is­tence. The chief dif­fi­culty you ex­pe­ri­ence in con­tact­ing with your Ad­justers con­sists in this very in­her­ent ma­te­rial na­ture. So few mor­tals are real thinkers; you do not spir­i­tu­ally de­velop and dis­ci­pline your minds to the point of fa­vor­able li­ai­son with the di­vine Ad­justers. The ear of the hu­man mind is al­most deaf to the spir­i­tual pleas which the Ad­juster trans­lates from the man­i­fold mes­sages of the uni­ver­sal broad­casts of love pro­ceed­ing from the Fa­ther of mer­cies. The Ad­juster finds it al­most im­pos­si­ble to reg­is­ter these in­spir­ing spirit lead­ings in an an­i­mal mind so com­pletely dom­i­nated by the chem­i­cal and elec­tri­cal forces in­her­ent in your phys­i­cal na­tures.

44:4.10The lo­cal uni­verse broad­casts must also be mod­i­fied for re­cep­tion by the sys­tems and the in­di­vid­ual plan­ets. The trans­mit­tal of these space re­ports is care­fully super­vised, and there is al­ways a back reg­istry to in­sure the proper re­cep­tion of ev­ery re­port on ev­ery world in a given cir­cuit. These broad­cast di­rec­tors are tech­ni­cally ex­pert in the uti­liza­tion of the cur­rents of space for all pur­poses of in­tel­li­gence com­mu­ni­ca­tion.

33:6.5From Sal­ving­ton, broad­casts are si­mul­ta­ne­ously di­rected to the con­stel­la­tion head­quar­ters, the sys­tem head­quar­ters, and to in­di­vid­ual plan­ets. All higher or­ders of ce­les­tial be­ings are able to uti­lize this ser­vice for com­mu­ni­ca­tion with their fel­lows scat­tered through­out the uni­verse. The uni­verse broad­cast is ex­tended to all in­hab­ited worlds re­gard­less of their spir­i­tual sta­tus. Plan­e­tary in­ter­com­mu­ni­ca­tion is de­nied only those worlds un­der spir­i­tual quar­an­tine.

30:4.28The first act of your Ha­vona ca­reer will be to rec­og­nize and thank your trans­port se­con­a­phim for the long and safe jour­ney. Then you are pre­sented to those be­ings who will spon­sor your early Ha­vona ac­tiv­i­ties. Next you go to reg­is­ter your ar­rival and pre­pare your mes­sage of thanks­giv­ing and ado­ra­tion for dis­patch to the Cre­ator Son of your lo­cal uni­verse, the uni­verse Fa­ther who made pos­si­ble your son­ship ca­reer. This con­cludes the for­mal­i­ties of the Ha­vona ar­rival; where­upon you are ac­corded a long pe­riod of leisure for free ob­ser­va­tion, and this af­fords op­por­tu­nity for look­ing up your friends, fel­lows, and as­so­ciates of the long as­cen­sion ex­pe­ri­ence. You may also con­sult the broad­casts to as­cer­tain who of your fel­low pil­grims have de­parted for Ha­vona since the time of your leav­ing Uversa.

34:4.12But it was of Sal­ving­ton that John wrote: “And out of the throne pro­ceeded light­nings and thun­der­ings and voices”—the uni­verse broad­casts to the lo­cal sys­tems. He also en­vis­aged the di­rec­tional con­trol crea­tures of the lo­cal uni­verse, the liv­ing com­passes of the head­quar­ters world. This di­rec­tional con­trol in Neb­a­don is main­tained by the four con­trol crea­tures of Sal­ving­ton, who op­er­ate over the uni­verse cur­rents and are ably as­sisted by the first func­tion­ing mind-spirit, the ad­ju­tant of in­tu­ition, the spirit of “quick un­der­stand­ing.” But the de­scrip­tion of these four crea­tures—called beasts—has been sadly marred; they are of un­par­al­leled beauty and ex­qui­site form.

44:1.1With the lim­ited range of mor­tal hear­ing, you can hardly con­ceive of mor­ontia mel­o­dies. There is even a ma­te­rial range of beau­ti­ful sound un­rec­og­nized by the hu­man sense of hear­ing, not to men­tion the in­con­ceiv­able scope of mor­ontia and spirit har­mony. Spirit mel­o­dies are not ma­te­rial sound waves but spirit pul­sa­tions re­ceived by the spir­its of ce­les­tial per­son­al­i­ties. There is a vast­ness of range and a soul of ex­pres­sion, as well as a grandeur of ex­e­cu­tion, as­so­ci­ated with the mel­ody of the spheres, that are wholly be­yond hu­man com­pre­hen­sion. I have seen mil­lions of en­rap­tured be­ings held in sub­lime ec­stasy while the mel­ody of the realm rolled in upon the spirit en­ergy of the ce­les­tial cir­cuits. These mar­velous mel­o­dies can be broad­cast to the ut­ter­most parts of a uni­verse.

44:1.2The ce­les­tial mu­si­cians are oc­cu­pied with the pro­duc­tion of ce­les­tial har­mony by the ma­nip­u­la­tion of the fol­low­ing spirit forces:

52:7.6The phys­i­cal ad­min­is­tra­tion of a world dur­ing this age re­quires about one hour each day on the part of ev­ery adult in­di­vid­ual; that is, the equiv­a­lent of one Uran­tia hour. The planet is in close touch with uni­verse af­fairs, and its peo­ple scan the lat­est broad­casts with the same keen in­ter­est you now man­i­fest in the lat­est edi­tions of your daily news­pa­pers. These races are oc­cu­pied with a thou­sand things of in­ter­est un­known on your world.

43:2.8The com­bined coun­cil of leg­is­la­tors con­sists of three mem­bers from each of these sep­a­rate branches of the con­stel­la­tion de­lib­er­a­tive as­sem­bly and is pre­sided over by the reign­ing ju­nior Most High. This group sanc­tions the fi­nal form of all en­act­ments and au­tho­rizes their pro­mul­ga­tion by the broad­cast­ers. The ap­proval of this su­preme com­mis­sion ren­ders leg­isla­tive en­act­ments the law of the realm; their acts are fi­nal. The leg­isla­tive pro­nounce­ments of Eden­tia con­sti­tute the fun­da­men­tal law of all Nor­la­ti­adek.

• contained in circuits of cosmic mind

9:7.3Much of the tech­nique of re­flec­tiv­ity we com­pre­hend, but there are many phases which truly baf­fle us. We know that the Con­joint Ac­tor is the uni­verse cen­ter of the mind cir­cuit, that he is the an­ces­tor of the cos­mic mind, and that cos­mic mind op­er­ates un­der the dom­i­nance of the ab­so­lute mind grav­ity of the Third Source and Cen­ter. We know fur­ther that the cir­cuits of the cos­mic mind in­flu­ence the in­tel­lec­tual lev­els of all known ex­is­tence; they con­tain the uni­ver­sal space re­ports, and just as cer­tainly they fo­cus in the Seven Mas­ter Spir­its and con­verge in the Third Source and Cen­ter.

• from Havona

15:9.96. The broad­casts of Par­a­dise, the space re­ports of Ha­vona.

• broadcast service of universe
• inaugurated when Grandfanda attained Havona

24:6.8The name of this pil­grim dis­cov­erer of Ha­vona is Grand­fanda, and he hailed from planet 341 of sys­tem 84 in con­stel­la­tion 62 of lo­cal uni­verse 1,131 sit­u­ated in super­uni­verse num­ber one. His ar­rival was the sig­nal for the es­tab­lish­ment of the broad­cast ser­vice of the uni­verse of uni­verses. Thereto­fore only the broad­casts of the super­uni­verses and the lo­cal uni­verses had been in op­er­a­tion, but the an­nounce­ment of the ar­rival of Grand­fanda at the por­tals of Ha­vona sig­nal­ized the in­au­gu­ra­tion of the “space re­ports of glory,” so named be­cause the ini­tial uni­verse broad­cast re­ported the Ha­vona ar­rival of the first of the evo­lu­tion­ary be­ings to at­tain en­trance upon the goal of as­cen­dant ex­is­tence.

• broadcast pilgrims’ attainment of Father

26:9.4Step by step, life by life, world by world, the as­cen­dant ca­reer has been mas­tered, and the goal of De­ity has been at­tained. Sur­vival is com­plete in per­fec­tion, and per­fec­tion is re­plete in the su­prem­acy of di­vin­ity. Time is lost in eter­nity; space is swal­lowed up in wor­ship­ful iden­tity and har­mony with the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther. The broad­casts of Ha­vona flash forth the space re­ports of glory, the good news that in very truth the con­sci­en­tious crea­tures of an­i­mal na­ture and ma­te­rial ori­gin have, through evo­lu­tion­ary as­cen­sion, be­come in re­al­ity and eter­nally the per­fected sons of God.

• received on planet at noon

39:5.15While plan­e­tary space re­ports are re­ceived at noon at the merid­ian of the des­ig­nated spir­i­tual head­quar­ters, the trans­port­ers are dis­patched from this same place at mid­night. That is the most fa­vor­able time for de­par­ture and is the stan­dard hour when not oth­er­wise spec­i­fied.

44:4.95. The broad­cast di­rec­tors. The broad­casts of Par­a­dise, the super­uni­verses, and the lo­cal uni­verses are un­der the gen­eral super­vi­sion of this group of thought con­servers. They serve as cen­sors and ed­i­tors as well as co-or­di­na­tors of the broad­cast ma­te­rial, mak­ing a super­uni­verse adap­ta­tion of all Par­a­dise broad­casts and adapt­ing and trans­lat­ing the broad­casts of the An­cients of Days into the in­di­vid­ual tongues of the lo­cal uni­verses.
