30:1.100V. FRAG­MENTED EN­TI­TIES OF DE­ITY. This or­der of liv­ing ex­is­tence, orig­i­nat­ing in the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther, is best typ­i­fied by the Thought Ad­justers, though these en­ti­ties are by no means the only frag­men­ta­tions of the preper­sonal re­al­ity of the First Source and Cen­ter. The func­tions of the other-than-Ad­juster frag­ments are man­i­fold and lit­tle known. Fu­sion with an Ad­juster or other such frag­ment con­sti­tutes the crea­ture a Fa­ther-fused be­ing.

30:1.101The frag­men­ta­tions of the pre­mind spirit of the Third Source and Cen­ter, though hardly com­pa­ra­ble to the Fa­ther frag­ments, should be here re­corded. Such en­ti­ties dif­fer very greatly from Ad­justers; they do not as such dwell on Spir­it­ing­ton, nor do they as such tra­verse the mind-grav­ity cir­cuits; nei­ther do they in­dwell mor­tal crea­tures dur­ing the life in the flesh. They are not preper­sonal in the sense that the Ad­justers are, but such frag­ments of pre­mind spirit are be­stowed upon cer­tain of the sur­viv­ing mor­tals, and fu­sion there­with con­sti­tutes them Spirit-fused mor­tals in con­tradis­tinc­tion to Ad­juster-fused mor­tals.

30:1.102Still more dif­fi­cult of de­scrip­tion is the in­di­vid­u­al­ized spirit of a Cre­ator Son, union with which con­sti­tutes the crea­ture a Son-fused mor­tal. And there are still other frag­men­ta­tions of De­ity.

6:5.5The Eter­nal Son, as an in­fi­nite and ex­clu­sively per­sonal be­ing, can­not frag­men­tize his na­ture, can­not dis­tribute and be­stow in­di­vid­u­al­ized por­tions of his self­hood upon other en­ti­ties or per­sons as do the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther and the In­fi­nite Spirit. But the Son can and does be­stow him­self as an un­lim­ited spirit to bathe all cre­ation and un­ceas­ingly draw all spirit per­son­al­i­ties and spir­i­tual re­al­i­ties to him­self.

6:5.6Ever re­mem­ber, the Eter­nal Son is the per­sonal por­trayal of the spirit Fa­ther to all cre­ation. The Son is per­sonal and noth­ing but per­sonal in the De­ity sense; such a di­vine and ab­so­lute per­son­al­ity can­not be dis­in­te­grated or frag­men­tized. God the Fa­ther and God the Spirit are truly per­sonal, but they are also ev­ery­thing else in ad­di­tion to be­ing such De­ity per­son­al­i­ties.

7:5.3The purely per­sonal na­ture of the Eter­nal Son is in­ca­pable of frag­men­ta­tion. The Eter­nal Son min­is­ters as a spir­i­tual in­flu­ence or as a per­son, never oth­er­wise. The Son finds it im­pos­si­ble to be­come a part of crea­ture ex­pe­ri­ence in the sense that the Fa­ther-Ad­juster par­tic­i­pates therein, but the Eter­nal Son com­pen­sates this lim­i­ta­tion by the tech­nique of be­stowal. What the ex­pe­ri­ence of frag­mented en­ti­ties means to the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther, the in­car­na­tion ex­pe­ri­ences of the Par­a­dise Sons mean to the Eter­nal Son.
