Holy Area

11:3.2While there are no phys­i­cal ma­te­ri­al­iza­tions in the area of the Most Holy, there are abun­dant sou­venirs of your ma­te­rial days in the Holy Land sec­tors and still more in the rem­i­nis­cent his­toric ar­eas of pe­riph­eral Par­a­dise.

11:3.3The Holy Area, the out­ly­ing or res­i­den­tial re­gion, is di­vided into seven con­cen­tric zones. Par­a­dise is some­times called “the Fa­ther’s House” since it is his eter­nal res­i­dence, and these seven zones are of­ten des­ig­nated “the Fa­ther’s Par­a­dise man­sions.” The in­ner or first zone is oc­cu­pied by Par­a­dise Cit­i­zens and the na­tives of Ha­vona who may chance to be dwell­ing on Par­a­dise. The next or sec­ond zone is the res­i­den­tial area of the na­tives of the seven super­uni­verses of time and space. This sec­ond zone is in part sub­di­vided into seven im­mense di­vi­sions, the Par­a­dise home of the spirit be­ings and as­cen­dant crea­tures who hail from the uni­verses of evo­lu­tion­ary pro­gres­sion. Each of these sec­tors is ex­clu­sively ded­i­cated to the wel­fare and ad­vance­ment of the per­son­al­i­ties of a sin­gle super­uni­verse, but these fa­cil­i­ties are al­most in­finitely be­yond the re­quire­ments of the pres­ent seven super­uni­verses.

11:3.4Each of the seven sec­tors of Par­a­dise is sub­di­vided into res­i­den­tial units suit­able for the lodg­ment head­quar­ters of one bil­lion glo­ri­fied in­di­vid­ual work­ing groups. One thou­sand of these units con­sti­tute a di­vi­sion. One hun­dred thou­sand di­vi­sions equal one con­gre­ga­tion. Ten mil­lion con­gre­ga­tions con­sti­tute an as­sem­bly. One bil­lion as­sem­blies make one grand unit. And this as­cend­ing se­ries con­tin­ues through the sec­ond grand unit, the third, and so on to the sev­enth grand unit. And seven of the grand units make up the mas­ter units, and seven of the mas­ter units con­sti­tute a su­pe­rior unit; and thus by sev­ens the as­cend­ing se­ries ex­pands through the su­pe­rior, super­su­pe­rior, ce­les­tial, super­ce­les­tial, to the su­preme units. But even this does not uti­lize all the space avail­able. This stag­ger­ing num­ber of res­i­den­tial des­ig­na­tions on Par­a­dise, a num­ber be­yond your con­cept, oc­cu­pies con­sid­er­ably less than one per cent of the as­signed area of the Holy Land. There is still plenty of room for those who are on their way in­ward, even for those who shall not start the Par­a­dise climb un­til the times of the eter­nal fu­ture.
