midspace zones

12:1.14The Outer Space Lev­els. Far out in space, at an enor­mous dis­tance from the seven in­hab­ited super­uni­verses, there are as­sem­bling vast and un­be­liev­ably stu­pen­dous cir­cuits of force and ma­te­ri­al­iz­ing en­er­gies. Be­tween the en­ergy cir­cuits of the seven super­uni­verses and this gi­gan­tic outer belt of force ac­tiv­ity, there is a space zone of com­par­a­tive quiet, which varies in width but av­er­ages about four hun­dred thou­sand light-years. These space zones are free from star dust—cos­mic fog. Our stu­dents of these phe­nom­ena are in doubt as to the ex­act sta­tus of the space-forces ex­ist­ing in this zone of rel­a­tive quiet which en­cir­cles the seven super­uni­verses. But about one-half mil­lion light-years be­yond the pe­riph­ery of the pres­ent grand uni­verse we ob­serve the be­gin­nings of a zone of an un­be­liev­able en­ergy ac­tion which in­creases in vol­ume and in­ten­sity for over twenty-five mil­lion light-years. These tremen­dous wheels of en­er­giz­ing forces are sit­u­ated in the first outer space level, a con­tin­u­ous belt of cos­mic ac­tiv­ity en­cir­cling the whole of the known, or­ga­nized, and in­hab­ited cre­ation.

12:1.15Still greater ac­tiv­i­ties are tak­ing place be­yond these re­gions, for the Uversa physi­cists have de­tected early ev­i­dence of force man­i­fes­ta­tions more than fifty mil­lion light-years be­yond the out­er­most ranges of the phe­nom­ena in the first outer space level. These ac­tiv­i­ties un­doubt­edly presage the or­ga­ni­za­tion of the ma­te­rial cre­ations of the sec­ond outer space level of the mas­ter uni­verse.

11:5.6The mid-zone of the force cen­ter im­me­di­ately sur­rounds this area. This mid-zone ap­pears to be static ex­cept that it ex­pands and con­tracts through three cy­cles of ac­tiv­ity. The least of these pul­sa­tions is in an east-west di­rec­tion, the next in a north-south di­rec­tion, while the great­est fluc­tu­a­tion is in ev­ery di­rec­tion, a gen­er­al­ized ex­pan­sion and con­trac­tion. The func­tion of this mid-area has never been re­ally iden­ti­fied, but it must have some­thing to do with re­cip­ro­cal ad­just­ment be­tween the in­ner and the outer zones of the force cen­ter. It is be­lieved by many that the mid-zone is the con­trol mech­a­nism of the midspace or quiet zones which sep­a­rate the suc­ces­sive space lev­els of the mas­ter uni­verse, but no ev­i­dence or rev­e­la­tion con­firms this. This in­fer­ence is de­rived from the knowl­edge that this mid-area is in some man­ner re­lated to the func­tion­ing of the non­per­vaded-space mech­a­nism of the mas­ter uni­verse.

11:7.7The rel­a­tively quiet zones be­tween the space lev­els, such as the one sep­a­rat­ing the seven super­uni­verses from the first outer space level, are enor­mous el­lip­ti­cal re­gions of qui­es­cent space ac­tiv­i­ties. These zones sep­a­rate the vast galax­ies which race around Par­a­dise in or­derly pro­ces­sion. You may vi­su­al­ize the first outer space level, where un­told uni­verses are now in pro­cess of for­ma­tion, as a vast pro­ces­sion of galax­ies swing­ing around Par­a­dise, bounded above and be­low by the midspace zones of qui­es­cence and bounded on the in­ner and outer mar­gins by rel­a­tively quiet space zones.

11:7.3The ver­ti­cal cross sec­tion of to­tal space would slightly re­sem­ble a Mal­tese cross, with the hor­i­zon­tal arms rep­re­sent­ing per­vaded (uni­verse) space and the ver­ti­cal arms rep­re­sent­ing un­per­vaded (reser­voir) space. The ar­eas be­tween the four arms would sep­a­rate them some­what as the midspace zones sep­a­rate per­vaded and un­per­vaded space. These qui­es­cent midspace zones grow larger and larger at greater and greater dis­tances from Par­a­dise and even­tu­ally en­com­pass the bor­ders of all space and com­pletely in­cap­su­late both the space reser­voirs and the en­tire hor­i­zon­tal ex­ten­sion of per­vaded space.

11:7.2Par­a­dise is the ac­tu­ally mo­tion­less nu­cleus of the rel­a­tively qui­es­cent zones ex­ist­ing be­tween per­vaded and un­per­vaded space. Ge­o­graph­i­cally these zones ap­pear to be a rel­a­tive ex­ten­sion of Par­a­dise, but there prob­a­bly is some mo­tion in them. We know very lit­tle about them, but we ob­serve that these zones of less­ened space mo­tion sep­a­rate per­vaded and un­per­vaded space. Sim­i­lar zones once ex­isted be­tween the lev­els of per­vaded space, but these are now less qui­es­cent.

11:7.8A space level thus func­tions as an el­lip­ti­cal re­gion of mo­tion sur­rounded on all sides by rel­a­tive mo­tion­less­ness. Such re­la­tion­ships of mo­tion and qui­es­cence con­sti­tute a curved space path of less­ened re­sis­tance to mo­tion which is uni­ver­sally fol­lowed by cos­mic force and emer­gent en­ergy as they cir­cle for­ever around the Isle of Par­a­dise.

12:1.2The suc­ces­sive space lev­els of the mas­ter uni­verse con­sti­tute the ma­jor di­vi­sions of per­vaded space—to­tal cre­ation, or­ga­nized and par­tially in­hab­ited or yet to be or­ga­nized and in­hab­ited. If the mas­ter uni­verse were not a se­ries of el­lip­ti­cal space lev­els of less­ened re­sis­tance to mo­tion, al­ter­nat­ing with zones of rel­a­tive qui­es­cence, we con­ceive that some of the cos­mic en­er­gies would be ob­served to shoot off on an in­fi­nite range, off on a straight-line path into track­less space; but we never find force, en­ergy, or mat­ter thus be­hav­ing; ever they whirl, al­ways swing­ing on­ward in the tracks of the great space cir­cuits.

12:5.4The rel­a­tively mo­tion­less midspace zones im­ping­ing on Par­a­dise and sep­a­rat­ing per­vaded from un­per­vaded space are the tran­si­tion zones from time to eter­nity, hence the ne­ces­sity of Par­a­dise pil­grims be­com­ing un­con­scious dur­ing this tran­sit when it is to cul­mi­nate in Par­a­dise cit­i­zen­ship. Time-con­scious vis­i­tors can go to Par­a­dise with­out thus sleep­ing, but they re­main crea­tures of time.

11:7.1Space does not ex­ist on any of the sur­faces of Par­a­dise. If one “looked” di­rectly up from the up­per sur­face of Par­a­dise, one would “see” noth­ing but un­per­vaded space go­ing out or com­ing in, just now com­ing in. Space does not touch Par­a­dise; only the qui­es­cent midspace zones come in con­tact with the cen­tral Isle.
