creature-trinitized sons

49 paragraphs · about 19 minutes

Every paragraph the index cites under creature-trinitized sons, once, in the order of the book. Beside each stand the entries that cite it.

13:1.12The se­crets of Vicegering­ton in­clude the se­crets of trin­i­ti­za­tion, and trin­i­ti­za­tion con­sti­tutes the se­cret of au­thor­ity to rep­re­sent the Trin­ity, to act as vicegerents of the Gods. Au­thor­ity to rep­re­sent the Trin­ity at­taches only to those be­ings, re­vealed and un­re­vealed, who are trin­i­tized, cre­ated, even­tu­ated, or eter­nal­ized by any two or all three of the Par­a­dise Trin­ity. Per­son­al­i­ties brought into be­ing by the trini­tiz­ing acts of cer­tain types of glo­ri­fied crea­tures rep­re­sent no more than the con­cep­tual po­ten­tial mo­bi­lized in that trin­i­ti­za­tion, al­beit such crea­tures may as­cend the path of De­ity em­brace open to all of their kind.

13:4.1Be­tween the in­ner cir­cuit of Ha­vona and the shin­ing spheres of the Eter­nal Son there cir­cle the seven orbs of the In­fi­nite Spirit, worlds in­hab­ited by the off­spring of the In­fi­nite Spirit, by the trin­i­tized sons of glo­ri­fied cre­ated per­son­al­i­ties, and by other types of un­re­vealed be­ings con­cerned with the ef­fec­tive ad­min­is­tra­tion of the many en­ter­prises of the var­i­ous realms of uni­verse ac­tiv­i­ties.

17:1.7The im­me­di­ate sub­or­di­nates of the Su­preme Ex­ec­u­tives con­sist for the greater part of the trin­i­tized sons of Par­a­dise-Ha­vona per­son­al­i­ties and of the trin­i­tized off­spring of the glo­ri­fied mor­tal grad­u­ates from the age­long train­ing of the as­cen­dant scheme of time and space. These trin­i­tized sons are des­ig­nated for ser­vice with the Su­preme Ex­ec­u­tives by the chief of the Su­preme Coun­cil of the Par­a­dise Corps of the Fi­nal­ity.

17:1.8Each Su­preme Ex­ec­u­tive has two ad­vi­sory cab­i­nets: The chil­dren of the In­fi­nite Spirit on the head­quar­ters of each super­uni­verse choose rep­re­sen­ta­tives from their ranks to serve for one mil­len­nium in the pri­mary ad­vi­sory cab­i­net of their Su­preme Ex­ec­u­tive. In all mat­ters af­fect­ing the as­cend­ing mor­tals of time, there is a sec­ondary cab­i­net, con­sist­ing of mor­tals of Par­a­dise at­tain­ment and of the trin­i­tized sons of glo­ri­fied mor­tals; this body is cho­sen by the per­fect­ing and as­cend­ing be­ings who tran­siently dwell on the seven super­uni­verse head­quar­ters. All other chiefs of af­fairs are ap­pointed by the Su­preme Ex­ec­u­tives.

20:8.2The ex­act num­ber of Teacher Sons in Neb­a­don I do not know; there are many thou­sands of them. Many of the heads of de­part­ments in the Mel­chiz­e­dek schools be­long to this or­der, while the com­bined staff of the reg­u­larly con­sti­tuted Uni­ver­sity of Sal­ving­ton em­braces over one hun­dred thou­sand in­clud­ing these Sons. Large num­bers are sta­tioned on the var­i­ous mor­ontia-train­ing worlds, but they are not wholly oc­cu­pied with the spir­i­tual and in­tel­lec­tual ad­vance­ment of mor­tal crea­tures; they are equally con­cerned with the in­struc­tion of se­raphic be­ings and other na­tives of the lo­cal cre­ations. Many of their as­sis­tants are drawn from the ranks of the crea­ture-trin­i­tized be­ings.

22:1.12The Trin­i­tized Sons of Per­fec­tion. The Ce­les­tial Guard­i­ans and their co-or­di­nates, the High Son As­sis­tants, com­prise a unique group of twice-trin­i­tized per­son­al­i­ties. They are the crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons of Par­a­dise-Ha­vona per­son­al­i­ties or of per­fected as­cen­dant mor­tals who have long dis­tin­guished them­selves in the Corps of the Fi­nal­ity. Some of these crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons, af­ter ser­vice with the Su­preme Ex­ec­u­tives of the Seven Mas­ter Spir­its and af­ter serv­ing un­der the Trin­ity Teacher Sons, are re­trini­tized (em­braced) by the Par­a­dise Trin­ity and then com­mis­sioned to the courts of the An­cients of Days as Ce­les­tial Guard­i­ans and as High Son As­sis­tants. Trin­i­tized Sons of Per­fec­tion are as­signed di­rectly to the super­uni­verse ser­vice with­out fur­ther train­ing.

22:7.4The as­cen­dant Ad­juster-fused mor­tal fi­nal­i­ters who have at­tained cer­tain lev­els of Par­a­dise cul­ture and spir­i­tual de­vel­op­ment are among those who can es­say to trini­tize a crea­ture be­ing. Mor­tal-fi­nal­i­ter com­pa­nies, when sta­tioned on Par­a­dise, are granted a re­cess ev­ery mil­len­nium of Ha­vona time. There are seven dif­fer­ent ways such fi­nal­i­ters may elect to spend this duty-free pe­riod, and one of these is, in as­so­ci­a­tion with some fel­low fi­nal­i­ter or some Par­a­dise-Ha­vona per­son­al­ity, to at­tempt the en­act­ment of crea­ture trin­i­ti­za­tion.

22:7.5If two mor­tal fi­nal­i­ters, on go­ing be­fore the Ar­chi­tects of the Mas­ter Uni­verse, demon­strate that they have in­de­pen­dently cho­sen an iden­ti­cal con­cept for trin­i­ti­za­tion, the Ar­chi­tects are em­pow­ered, on their own dis­cre­tion, to pro­mul­gate man­dates per­mit­ting these glo­ri­fied mor­tal as­cend­ers to ex­tend their re­cess and to re­move them­selves for a time to the trini­tiz­ing sec­tor of the Par­a­dise Cit­i­zens. At the end of this as­signed re­treat, if they re­port that they have singly and jointly elected to make the par­a­di­si­a­cal ef­fort to spir­i­tu­al­ize, ide­al­ize, and ac­tu­al­ize a se­lected and orig­i­nal con­cept which has not thereto­fore been trin­i­tized, then does Mas­ter Spirit Num­ber Seven is­sue or­ders au­tho­riz­ing such an ex­traor­di­nary un­der­tak­ing.

22:7.6Un­be­liev­ably long pe­ri­ods of time are some­times con­sumed in these ad­ven­tures; an age seems to pass be­fore these faith­ful and de­ter­mined one­time mor­tals—and some­times Par­a­dise-Ha­vona per­son­al­i­ties—fi­nally achieve their goal, re­ally suc­ceed in bring­ing their cho­sen con­cept of uni­ver­sal truth into ac­tual be­ing. And not al­ways do these de­voted cou­ples meet with suc­cess; many times they fail, and that through no dis­cov­er­able er­ror on their part. Can­di­dates for trin­i­ti­za­tion who thus fail are ad­mit­ted to a spe­cial group of fi­nal­i­ters who are des­ig­nated as be­ings who have made the su­preme ef­fort and sus­tained the su­preme dis­ap­point­ment. When the Par­a­dise De­i­ties unite to trini­tize, they al­ways suc­ceed, but not so with a ho­mo­ge­neous pair of crea­tures, the at­tempted union of two mem­bers of the same or­der of be­ing.

22:7.7When a new and orig­i­nal be­ing is trin­i­tized by the Gods, the di­vine par­ents are in de­ity po­ten­tial un­changed; but when ex­alted crea­ture be­ings en­act such a cre­ative episode, one of the con­tract­ing and par­tic­i­pat­ing in­di­vid­u­als un­der­goes a unique per­son­al­ity mod­i­fi­ca­tion. The two an­ces­tors of a crea­ture-trin­i­tized son be­come in a cer­tain sense spir­i­tu­ally as one. We be­lieve that this sta­tus of bi-uni­fi­ca­tion of cer­tain spir­i­tual phases of per­son­al­ity will prob­a­bly pre­vail un­til such time as the Su­preme Be­ing shall have at­tained full and com­pleted man­i­fes­ta­tion of per­son­al­ity in the grand uni­verse.

22:7.8Si­mul­ta­ne­ously with the ap­pear­ance of a new crea­ture-trin­i­tized son, there oc­curs this func­tional spir­i­tual union of the two an­ces­tors; the two trini­tiz­ing par­ents be­come one on the ul­ti­mate func­tional level. No cre­ated be­ing in the uni­verse can fully ex­plain this amaz­ing phe­nom­e­non; it is a near-di­vine ex­pe­ri­ence. When the Fa­ther and the Son united to eter­nal­ize the In­fi­nite Spirit, upon the ac­com­plish­ment of their pur­pose they im­me­di­ately be­came as one and ever since have been one. And while the trin­i­ti­za­tion union of two crea­tures is on the or­der of the in­fi­nite scope of the per­fect De­ity union of the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther and the Eter­nal Son, the reper­cus­sions of crea­ture trin­i­ti­za­tion are not eter­nal in na­ture; they will ter­mi­nate upon the com­pleted fac­tu­al­iza­tion of the ex­pe­ri­en­tial De­i­ties.

22:7.9While these par­ents of crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons be­come as one in their uni­verse as­sign­ments, they con­tinue to be reck­oned as two per­son­al­i­ties in the make-up and roll calls of the Corps of the Fi­nal­ity and of the Ar­chi­tects of the Mas­ter Uni­verse. Dur­ing the cur­rent uni­verse age, all trin­i­ti­za­tion-united par­ents are in­sep­a­ra­ble in as­sign­ment and func­tion; where one goes the other goes, what one does the other does. If pa­ren­tal bi-uni­fi­ca­tion in­volves a mor­tal (or other) fi­nal­i­ter and a Par­a­dise-Ha­vona per­son­al­ity, the united pa­ren­tal be­ings func­tion nei­ther with the Par­adis­ers, Havon­ers, nor fi­nal­i­ters. Such mixed unions for­gather in a spe­cial corps made up of sim­i­lar be­ings. And in all trin­i­ti­za­tion unions, mixed or oth­er­wise, the pa­ren­tal be­ings are con­scious of, and can com­mu­ni­cate with, each other, and they can per­form du­ties that nei­ther could have pre­vi­ously dis­charged.

22:7.10The Seven Mas­ter Spir­its have au­thor­ity to sanc­tion the trini­tiz­ing union of fi­nal­i­ters and Par­a­dise-Ha­vona per­son­al­i­ties, and such mixed li­aisons are al­ways suc­cess­ful. The re­sul­tant mag­nif­i­cent crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons are rep­re­sen­ta­tive of con­cepts un­suited to the com­pre­hen­sion of ei­ther the eter­nal crea­tures of Par­a­dise or the time crea­tures of space; hence they be­come the wards of the Ar­chi­tects of the Mas­ter Uni­verse. These trin­i­tized sons of des­tiny em­body ideas, ide­als, and ex­pe­ri­ence which ap­par­ently per­tain to a fu­ture uni­verse age and are there­fore of no im­me­di­ate prac­ti­cal value to ei­ther the su­per- or cen­tral uni­verse ad­min­is­tra­tions. These unique sons of the chil­dren of time and the cit­i­zens of eter­nity are all held in re­serve on Vicegering­ton, where they are en­gaged in the study of the con­cepts of time and the re­al­i­ties of eter­nity in a spe­cial sec­tor of the sphere oc­cu­pied by the se­cret col­leges of the corps of the Cre­ator Sons.

22:7.11The Su­preme Be­ing is the uni­fi­ca­tion of three phases of De­ity re­al­ity: God the Su­preme, the spir­i­tual uni­fi­ca­tion of cer­tain fi­nite as­pects of the Par­a­dise Trin­ity; the Al­mighty Su­preme, the power uni­fi­ca­tion of the grand uni­verse Cre­ators; and the Su­preme Mind, the in­di­vid­ual con­tri­bu­tion of the Third Source and Cen­ter and his co-or­di­nates to the re­al­ity of the Su­preme Be­ing. In their trin­i­ti­za­tion ad­ven­tures the su­perb crea­tures of the cen­tral uni­verse and Par­a­dise are en­gaged in a three­fold ex­plo­ration of the De­ity of the Su­preme which re­sults in the pro­duc­tion of three or­ders of crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons:

22:7.121. As­cender-trin­i­tized Sons. In their cre­ative ef­forts the fi­nal­i­ters are at­tempt­ing to trini­tize cer­tain con­cep­tual re­al­i­ties of the Al­mighty Su­preme which they have ex­pe­ri­en­tially ac­quired in their as­cen­sion through time and space to Par­a­dise.

22:7.132. Par­a­dise-Ha­vona-trin­i­tized Sons. The cre­ative ef­forts of the Par­a­dise Cit­i­zens and the Havon­ers re­sult in the trin­i­ti­za­tion of cer­tain high spir­i­tual as­pects of the Su­preme Be­ing which they have ex­pe­ri­en­tially ac­quired on a super­su­preme back­ground bor­der­ing on the Ul­ti­mate and the Eter­nal.

22:7.143. Trin­i­tized Sons of Des­tiny. But when a fi­nal­i­ter and a Par­a­dise-Havoner to­gether trini­tize a new crea­ture, this con­joint ef­fort reper­cusses in cer­tain phases of the Su­preme-Ul­ti­mate Mind. The re­sult­ing crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons are super­cre­ational; they rep­re­sent ac­tu­al­i­ties of Su­preme-Ul­ti­mate De­ity which have not been oth­er­wise ex­pe­ri­en­tially at­tained, and which, there­fore, au­to­mat­i­cally fall within the prov­ince of the Ar­chi­tects of the Mas­ter Uni­verse, cus­to­di­ans of those things which tran­scend the cre­ational lim­its of the pres­ent uni­verse age. The trin­i­tized sons of des­tiny em­body cer­tain as­pects of the un­re­vealed mas­ter uni­verse func­tion of the Su­preme-Ul­ti­mate. We do not know a great deal about these con­joint chil­dren of time and eter­nity, but we know much more than we are per­mit­ted to re­veal.

22:8.1In ad­di­tion to the crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons con­sid­ered in this nar­ra­tive, there are nu­mer­ous un­re­vealed or­ders of crea­ture-trin­i­tized be­ings—the di­verse progeny of the mul­ti­ple li­aisons of seven fi­nal­i­ter corps and Par­a­dise-Ha­vona per­son­al­i­ties. But all these crea­ture-trin­i­tized be­ings, re­vealed and un­re­vealed, are en­dowed with per­son­al­ity by the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther.

22:8.2When new as­cender-trin­i­tized and Par­a­dise-Ha­vona-trin­i­tized sons are young and un­trained, they are usu­ally dis­patched for long pe­ri­ods of ser­vice on the seven Par­a­dise spheres of the In­fi­nite Spirit, where they serve un­der the tute­lage of the Seven Su­preme Ex­ec­u­tives. Sub­se­quently they may be adopted for fur­ther train­ing in the lo­cal uni­verses by the Trin­ity Teacher Sons.

22:8.3These adopted sons of high and glo­ri­fied crea­ture ori­gin are the ap­pren­tices, stu­dent helpers, of the Teacher Sons, and as re­gards clas­si­fi­ca­tion they are of­ten tem­porar­ily num­bered with these Sons. They may and do ex­e­cute many no­ble as­sign­ments in self-de­nial in be­half of their cho­sen realms of ser­vice.

22:8.4The Teacher Sons in the lo­cal uni­verses may nom­i­nate their crea­ture-trin­i­tized wards for em­brace by the Par­a­dise Trin­ity. Emerg­ing from this em­brace as Trin­i­tized Sons of Per­fec­tion, they en­ter the ser­vice of the An­cients of Days in the seven super­uni­verses, that be­ing the pres­ent known des­tiny of this unique group of twice-trin­i­tized be­ings.

22:8.5Not all crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons are Trin­ity em­braced; many be­come the as­so­ciates and am­bas­sadors of the Seven Mas­ter Spir­its of Par­a­dise, of the Re­flec­tive Spir­its of the super­uni­verses, and of the Mother Spir­its of the lo­cal cre­ations. Oth­ers may ac­cept spe­cial as­sign­ments on the eter­nal Isle. Still oth­ers may en­ter the spe­cial ser­vices on the se­cret worlds of the Fa­ther and on the Par­a­dise spheres of the Spirit. Even­tu­ally many find their way into the con­joint corps of the Trin­i­tized Sons on the in­ner cir­cuit of Ha­vona.

22:8.6Ex­cept­ing the Trin­i­tized Sons of Per­fec­tion and those who are for­gath­er­ing on Vicegering­ton, the su­preme des­tiny of all crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons ap­pears to be en­trance into the Corps of Trin­i­tized Fi­nal­i­ters, one of the seven Par­a­dise Corps of the Fi­nal­ity.

22:9.1Crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons are em­braced by the Par­a­dise Trin­ity in classes of seven thou­sand. These trin­i­tized off­spring of per­fected hu­mans and of Par­a­dise-Ha­vona per­son­al­i­ties are all equally em­braced by the De­i­ties, but they are as­signed to the super­uni­verses in ac­cor­dance with the ad­vice of their for­mer in­struc­tors, the Trin­ity Teacher Sons. Those of more ac­cept­able ser­vice are com­mis­sioned High Son As­sis­tants; those of less dis­tin­guished per­for­mance are des­ig­nated Ce­les­tial Guard­i­ans.

22:9.2–4 · three paragraphs not cited here ·

22:9.2When these unique be­ings have been Trin­ity em­braced, they be­come valu­able ad­juncts to the super­uni­verse gov­ern­ments. They are versed in the af­fairs of the as­cen­dant ca­reer, not by per­sonal as­cen­sion, but as a re­sult of their ser­vice with the Trin­ity Teacher Sons on the worlds of space.

22:9.3Al­most one bil­lion Ce­les­tial Guard­i­ans have been com­mis­sioned in Or­von­ton. They are chiefly as­signed to the ad­min­is­tra­tions of the Per­fec­tions of Days on the head­quar­ters of the ma­jor sec­tors and are ably as­sisted by a corps of as­cen­dant Son-fused mor­tals.

22:9.4The Ce­les­tial Guard­i­ans are the of­fi­cers of the courts of the An­cients of Days, func­tion­ing as court mes­sen­gers and as bear­ers of the sum­monses and de­ci­sions of the var­i­ous tri­bu­nals of the super­uni­verse gov­ern­ments. They are the ap­pre­hend­ing agents of the An­cients of Days; they go forth from Uversa to bring back be­ings whose pres­ence is re­quired be­fore the super­uni­verse judges; they ex­e­cute the man­dates for the de­ten­tion of any per­son­al­ity in the super­uni­verse. They also ac­com­pany Spirit-fused mor­tals of the lo­cal uni­verses when, for any rea­son, their pres­ence is re­quired on Uversa.

22:9.5The Ce­les­tial Guard­i­ans and their as­so­ciates, the High Son As­sis­tants, have never been in­dwelt by Ad­justers. Nei­ther are they Spirit nor Son fused. The em­brace of the Par­a­dise Trin­ity does, how­ever, com­pen­sate for the non­fused sta­tus of the Trin­i­tized Sons of Per­fec­tion. The Trin­ity em­brace may act solely upon the idea which is per­son­i­fied in a crea­ture-trin­i­tized son, leav­ing the em­braced son oth­er­wise un­changed, but such a lim­i­ta­tion oc­curs only when so planned.

22:10.2If, in dis­cussing the Ce­les­tial Guard­i­ans, I have seemed to call at­ten­tion to the lim­i­ta­tions and hand­i­caps of these twice-trin­i­tized sons, let me now, in all fair­ness, call at­ten­tion to their one point of great strength, the at­tri­bute which makes them al­most in­valu­able to us. These be­ings owe their very ex­is­tence to the fact that they are the per­son­i­fi­ca­tion of a sin­gle and su­preme con­cept. They are the per­son­al­ity em­bod­i­ment of some di­vine idea, some uni­ver­sal ideal, as it has never be­fore been con­ceived, ex­pressed, or trin­i­tized. And they have sub­se­quently been Trin­ity em­braced; thus they show forth and ac­tu­ally em­body the very wis­dom of the di­vine Trin­ity as con­cerns the idea-ideal of their per­son­al­ity ex­is­tence. As far as that par­tic­u­lar con­cept is re­veal­able to the uni­verses, these per­son­al­i­ties em­body all of ev­ery­thing that any crea­ture or Cre­ator in­tel­li­gence could pos­si­bly con­ceive, ex­press, or ex­em­plify. They are that idea per­son­i­fied.

22:10.3Can you not see that such liv­ing con­cen­tra­tions of a sin­gle su­preme con­cept of uni­verse re­al­ity would be of un­told ser­vice to those who are in­trusted with the ad­min­is­tra­tion of the super­uni­verses?

22:10.4Not long since I was di­rected to head a com­mis­sion of six—one of each of the high sons—as­signed to the study of three prob­lems per­tain­ing to a group of new uni­verses in the south parts of Or­von­ton. I was made acutely aware of the value of the High Son As­sis­tants when I made req­ui­si­tion on the chief of their or­der on Uversa for tem­po­rary as­sign­ment of such sec­re­taries to my com­mis­sion. The first of our ideas was rep­re­sented by a High Son As­sis­tant on Uversa, who was forth­with at­tached to our group. Our sec­ond prob­lem was em­bod­ied in a High Son As­sis­tant as­signed to super­uni­verse num­ber three. We se­cured much help from this source through the cen­tral uni­verse clear­ing­house for the co-or­di­na­tion and dis­sem­i­na­tion of es­sen­tial knowl­edge, but noth­ing com­pa­ra­ble to the as­sis­tance af­forded by the ac­tual pres­ence of a per­son­al­ity who is a con­cept crea­ture-trin­i­tized in su­prem­acy and De­ity-trin­i­tized in fi­nal­ity. Con­cern­ing our third prob­lem, the rec­ords of Par­a­dise dis­closed that such an idea had never been crea­ture trin­i­tized.

22:10.5High Son As­sis­tants are unique and orig­i­nal per­son­al­iza­tions of tremen­dous con­cepts and stu­pen­dous ide­als. And as such they are able to im­part in­ex­press­ible il­lu­mi­na­tion to our de­lib­er­a­tions from time to time. When I am act­ing on some re­mote as­sign­ment out in the uni­verses of space, think what it means, by way of as­sis­tance, if I am so for­tu­nate as to have at­tached to my mis­sion a High Son As­sis­tant who is the full­ness of di­vine con­cept re­gard­ing the very prob­lem I have been sent to at­tack and solve; and I have re­peat­edly had this very ex­pe­ri­ence. The only dif­fi­culty with this plan is that no super­uni­verse can have a com­plete edi­tion of these trin­i­tized ideas; we only get one sev­enth of these be­ings; so it is only about one time in seven that we en­joy the per­sonal as­so­ci­a­tion of these be­ings even when the rec­ords in­di­cate that the idea has been trin­i­tized.

22:10.6We could use to great ad­van­tage much larger num­bers of these be­ings on Uversa. Be­cause of their value to the super­uni­verse ad­min­is­tra­tions, we, in ev­ery way pos­si­ble, en­cour­age the pil­grims of space and also the res­i­dents of Par­a­dise to at­tempt trin­i­ti­za­tion af­ter they have con­tributed to one an­other those ex­pe­ri­en­tial re­al­i­ties which are es­sen­tial to the en­act­ment of such cre­ative ad­ven­tures.

22:10.7We now have in our super­uni­verse about one and a quar­ter mil­lion High Son As­sis­tants, and they serve on both the ma­jor and mi­nor sec­tors, even as they func­tion on Uversa. They very of­ten ac­com­pany us on our as­sign­ments to the re­mote uni­verses. High Son As­sis­tants are not per­ma­nently as­signed to any Son or to any com­mis­sion. They are in con­stant cir­cu­la­tion, serv­ing where the idea or ideal which they are can best fur­ther the eter­nal pur­poses of the Par­a­dise Trin­ity, whose sons they have be­come.

23:4.3When a fi­nal­i­ter and a Par­a­dise Cit­i­zen co-op­er­ate in the trin­i­ti­za­tion of a “child of time and eter­nity”—a trans­ac­tion in­volv­ing the un­re­vealed mind po­ten­tials of the Su­preme-Ul­ti­mate—and when such an un­clas­si­fied per­son­al­ity is dis­patched to Vicegering­ton, a Soli­tary Mes­sen­ger (a con­jec­tured per­son­al­ity reper­cus­sion of the be­stowal of such de­ity mind) is al­ways as­signed as guard­ian-com­pan­ion to such a crea­ture-trin­i­tized son. This mes­sen­ger ac­com­pa­nies the new son of des­tiny to the world of his as­sign­ment and nev­er­more leaves Vicegering­ton. When thus at­tached to the des­tinies of a child of time and eter­nity, a Soli­tary Mes­sen­ger is for­ever trans­ferred to the sole super­vi­sion of the Ar­chi­tects of the Mas­ter Uni­verse. What the fu­ture of such an ex­traor­di­nary as­so­ci­a­tion may be, we do not know. For ages these part­ner­ships of unique per­son­al­i­ties have con­tin­ued to for­gather on Vicegering­ton, but not even a sin­gle pair has ever gone forth there­from.

23:4.4Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers are of sta­tion­ary num­bers, but the trin­i­ti­za­tion of the sons of des­tiny is ap­par­ently an un­lim­ited tech­nique. Since each trin­i­tized son of des­tiny has as­signed to him a Soli­tary Mes­sen­ger, it ap­pears to us that at some time in the re­mote fu­ture the sup­ply of mes­sen­gers will be­come ex­hausted. Who will take up their work in the grand uni­verse? Will their ser­vice be as­sumed by some new de­vel­op­ment among the In­spired Trin­ity Spir­its? Is the grand uni­verse at some re­mote pe­riod go­ing to be more nearly ad­min­is­tered by Trin­ity-ori­gin be­ings while the sin­gle- and dual-ori­gin crea­tures move on into the realms of outer space? If the mes­sen­gers re­turn to their for­mer ser­vice, will these sons of des­tiny ac­com­pany them? Will the trini­ti­za­tions be­tween fi­nal­i­ters and Par­a­dise-Havon­ers cease when the sup­ply of Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers has been ab­sorbed as guard­ian-com­pan­ions of these sons of des­tiny? Are all our ef­fi­cient Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers go­ing to be con­cen­trated on Vicegering­ton? Are these ex­traor­di­nary spirit per­son­al­i­ties go­ing to be eter­nally as­so­ci­ated with these trin­i­tized sons of un­re­vealed des­tiny? What sig­nif­i­cance should we at­tach to the fact that these cou­ples for­gath­er­ing on Vicegering­ton are un­der the ex­clu­sive di­rec­tion of those mighty mys­tery be­ings, the Ar­chi­tects of the Mas­ter Uni­verse? These and many sim­i­lar ques­tions we ask our­selves, and ask nu­mer­ous other or­ders of ce­les­tial be­ings, but we do not know the an­swers.

26:2.2Pri­mary super­na­phim are the ex­clu­sive off­spring of the Con­joint Cre­ator. They di­vide their min­istry about equally be­tween cer­tain groups of the Par­a­dise Cit­i­zens and the ever-en­larg­ing corps of as­cen­dant pil­grims. These an­gels of the eter­nal Isle are highly ef­fi­ca­cious in fur­ther­ing the es­sen­tial train­ing of both groups of Par­a­dise dwellers. They con­tribute much that is help­ful to the mu­tual un­der­stand­ing of these two unique or­ders of uni­verse crea­tures—the one be­ing the high­est type of di­vine and per­fect will crea­ture, and the other, the per­fected evo­lu­tion of the low­est type of will crea­ture in all the uni­verse of uni­verses.

26:8.1The fourth Ha­vona cir­cuit is some­times called the “cir­cuit of the Sons.” From the worlds of this cir­cuit the as­cend­ing pil­grims go to Par­a­dise to achieve an un­der­stand­ing con­tact with the Eter­nal Son, while on the worlds of this cir­cuit the de­scend­ing pil­grims achieve a new com­pre­hen­sion of the na­ture and mis­sion of the Cre­ator Sons of time and space. There are seven worlds in this cir­cuit on which the re­serve corps of the Par­a­dise Mi­cha­els main­tain spe­cial ser­vice schools of mu­tual min­istry to both the as­cend­ing and de­scend­ing pil­grims; and it is on these worlds of the Mi­chael Sons that the pil­grims of time and the pil­grims of eter­nity ar­rive at their first truly mu­tual un­der­stand­ing of one an­other. In many re­spects the ex­pe­ri­ences of this cir­cuit are the most in­trigu­ing of the en­tire Ha­vona so­journ.

26:11.2Among those who dwell on this in­ner cir­cuit are the crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons. The pri­mary and the sec­ondary super­na­phim are the gen­eral cus­to­di­ans of the con­joint corps of these sons, in­clud­ing the trin­i­tized off­spring of the mor­tal fi­nal­i­ters and sim­i­lar progeny of the Par­a­dise Cit­i­zens. Cer­tain of these sons are Trin­ity em­braced and com­mis­sioned in the super­gov­ern­ments, oth­ers are var­i­ously as­signed, but the great ma­jor­ity are be­ing gath­ered to­gether in the con­joint corps on the per­fect worlds of the in­ner Ha­vona cir­cuit. Here, un­der the super­vi­sion of the super­na­phim, they are be­ing pre­pared for some fu­ture work by a spe­cial and un­named corps of high Par­a­dise Cit­i­zens who were, prior to the times of Grand­fanda, first ex­ec­u­tive as­sis­tants to the Eter­nals of Days. There are many rea­sons for con­jec­tur­ing that these two unique groups of trin­i­tized be­ings are go­ing to work to­gether in the re­mote fu­ture, not the least of which is their com­mon des­tiny in the re­serves of the Par­a­dise Corps of Trin­i­tized Fi­nal­i­ters.

26:11.3On this in­ner­most cir­cuit, both the as­cend­ing and the de­scend­ing pil­grims frat­er­nize with each other and with the crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons. Like their par­ents, these sons de­rive great ben­e­fits from in­teras­so­ci­a­tion, and it is the spe­cial mis­sion of the super­na­phim to fa­cil­i­tate and to in­sure the con­fra­ter­nity of the trin­i­tized sons of the mor­tal fi­nal­i­ters and the trin­i­tized sons of the Par­a­dise Cit­i­zens. The super­aphic com­ple­ments of rest are not so much con­cerned with their train­ing as with pro­mot­ing their un­der­stand­ing as­so­ci­a­tion with di­verse groups.

26:11.4Mor­tals have re­ceived the Par­a­dise com­mand: “Be you per­fect, even as your Par­a­dise Fa­ther is per­fect.” To these trin­i­tized sons of the con­joint corps the super­vis­ing super­na­phim never cease to pro­claim: “Be you un­der­stand­ing of your as­cen­dant breth­ren, even as the Par­a­dise Cre­ator Sons know and love them.”

27:3.3The in­ter­preters of ethics are of in­es­timable as­sis­tance to the Par­a­dise ar­rivals in help­ing them to ad­just to nu­mer­ous groups of ma­jes­tic be­ings dur­ing that event­ful pe­riod ex­tend­ing from the at­tain­ment of res­i­den­tial sta­tus to for­mal in­duc­tion into the Corps of Mor­tal Fi­nal­i­ters. Many of the nu­mer­ous types of Par­a­dise Cit­i­zens the as­cen­dant pil­grims have al­ready met on the seven cir­cuits of Ha­vona. The glo­ri­fied mor­tals have also en­joyed in­ti­mate con­tact with the crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons of the con­joint corps on the in­ner Ha­vona cir­cuit, where these be­ings are re­ceiv­ing much of their ed­u­ca­tion. And on the other cir­cuits the as­cend­ing pil­grims have met nu­mer­ous un­re­vealed res­i­dents of the Par­a­dise-Ha­vona sys­tem who are there pur­su­ing group train­ing in prepa­ra­tion for the un­re­vealed as­sign­ments of the fu­ture.

30:1.2810. Crea­ture-trin­i­tized Sons.

30:2.628. As­cender-trin­i­tized Sons.

30:2.639. Par­a­dise-Ha­vona-trin­i­tized Sons.

31:9.13All be­ings pro­duced by the union of the chil­dren of time and eter­nity, such as the trin­i­tized off­spring of the fi­nal­i­ters and the Par­a­dise Cit­i­zens, be­come wards of the Mas­ter Ar­chi­tects. But of all other crea­tures or en­ti­ties re­vealed as func­tion­ing in the pres­ent or­ga­nized uni­verses, only Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers and In­spired Trin­ity Spir­its main­tain any or­ganic as­so­ci­a­tion with the Tran­scen­den­talers and the Ar­chi­tects of the Mas­ter Uni­verse.

35:0.1The Sons of God pre­vi­ously in­tro­duced have had a Par­a­dise ori­gin. They are the off­spring of the di­vine Rulers of the uni­ver­sal do­mains. Of the first Par­a­dise or­der of son­ship, the Cre­ator Sons, there is in Neb­a­don only one, Mi­chael, the uni­verse fa­ther and sov­er­eign. Of the sec­ond or­der of Par­a­dise son­ship, the Avo­nal or Mag­is­te­rial Sons, Neb­a­don has its full quota—1,062. And these “lesser Christs” are just as ef­fec­tive and all-pow­er­ful in their plan­e­tary be­stowals as was the Cre­ator and Mas­ter Son on Uran­tia. The third or­der, be­ing of Trin­ity ori­gin, do not reg­is­ter in a lo­cal uni­verse, but I es­ti­mate there are in Neb­a­don be­tween fif­teen and twenty thou­sand Trin­ity Teacher Sons ex­clu­sive of 9,642 crea­ture-trin­i­tized as­sis­tants of rec­ord. These Par­a­dise Day­nals are nei­ther mag­is­trates nor ad­min­is­tra­tors; they are super­teach­ers.

45:1.7Num­ber 5. The World of the Sons. This planet is the head­quar­ters of the di­vine Sons of all or­ders, in­clud­ing the crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons. The sur­round­ing seven worlds are de­voted to cer­tain in­di­vid­ual group­ings of these di­vinely re­lated sons.

46:5.13The sec­ond cir­cle is oc­cu­pied by the Trin­ity Teacher Sons. In this sa­cred do­main the Day­nals and their as­so­ciates carry for­ward the train­ing of the newly ar­rived pri­mary Teacher Sons. And in all of this work they are ably as­sisted by a di­vi­sion of cer­tain co-or­di­nates of the Bril­liant Evening Stars. The crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons oc­cupy a sec­tor of the Day­nal cir­cle. The Trin­ity Teacher Sons come the near­est to be­ing the per­sonal rep­re­sen­ta­tives of the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther in a lo­cal sys­tem; they are at least Trin­ity-ori­gin be­ings. This sec­ond cir­cle is a do­main of ex­traor­di­nary in­ter­est to all the peo­ples of Je­ru­sem.

55:4.174. The fourth stage of light and life. On these worlds the Trin­ity Teacher Sons ap­pear in new roles. As­sisted by the crea­ture-trini­tized sons so long as­so­ci­ated with their or­der, they now come to the worlds as vol­un­teer coun­selors and ad­vis­ers to the Plan­e­tary Sov­er­eign and his as­so­ciates. Such cou­ples—Par­adise-Ha­vona-trini­tized sons and as­cender-trini­tized sons—rep­re­sent dif­fer­ing uni­verse view­points and di­verse per­sonal ex­pe­ri­ences which are highly ser­vice­able to the plan­e­tary rulers.

55:12.2It is gen­er­ally be­lieved that large num­bers of the oth­er­wise un­at­tached crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons are to be as­sem­bled on the head­quar­ters and di­vi­sional cap­i­tals of the set­tled super­uni­verses. This may be in an­tic­i­pa­tion of the some­time ar­rival of outer-spac­ers on their way in to Ha­vona and Par­a­dise; but we re­ally do not know.

117:2.3Con­sider the sta­tus of the crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons: They are born and live in the pres­ent uni­verse age; they have per­son­al­i­ties, to­gether with mind and spirit en­dow­ments. They have ex­pe­ri­ences and the mem­ory thereof, but they do not grow as do as­cend­ers. It is our be­lief and un­der­stand­ing that these crea­ture-trin­i­tized sons, while they are in the pres­ent uni­verse age, are re­ally of the next uni­verse age—the age which will fol­low the com­ple­tion of the growth of the Su­preme. Hence they are not in the Su­preme as of his pres­ent sta­tus of in­com­plete­ness and con­se­quent growth. Thus they are non­par­tic­i­pat­ing in the ex­pe­ri­en­tial growth of the pres­ent uni­verse age, be­ing held in re­serve for the next uni­verse age.
