mind planners

• 3rd order transition minister seraphim

39:6.1As their name might sug­gest, ser­a­phim of tran­si­tional min­istry serve wher­ever they can con­tribute to crea­ture tran­si­tion from the ma­te­rial to the spir­i­tual es­tate. These an­gels serve from the in­hab­ited worlds to the sys­tem cap­i­tals, but those in Sa­ta­nia at pres­ent di­rect their great­est ef­forts to­ward the ed­u­ca­tion of the sur­viv­ing mor­tals on the seven man­sion worlds. This min­istry is di­ver­si­fied in ac­cor­dance with the fol­low­ing seven or­ders of as­sign­ment:

• mind planners
• most had previous experience as guardian angels
• seraphim who group and organize teamwork of morontia beings

48:6.243. Mind Plan­ners. These ser­a­phim are de­voted to the ef­fec­tive group­ing of mor­ontia be­ings and to or­ga­niz­ing their team­work on the man­sion worlds. They are the psy­chol­o­gists of the first heaven. The ma­jor­ity of this par­tic­u­lar di­vi­sion of se­raphic min­is­ters have had pre­vi­ous ex­pe­ri­ence as guard­ian an­gels to the chil­dren of time, but their wards, for some rea­son, failed to per­son­al­ize on the man­sion worlds or else sur­vived by the tech­nique of Spirit fu­sion.

48:6.25It is the task of the mind plan­ners to study the na­ture, ex­pe­ri­ence, and sta­tus of the Ad­juster souls in tran­sit through the man­sion worlds and to fa­cil­i­tate their group­ing for as­sign­ment and ad­vance­ment. But these mind plan­ners do not scheme, ma­nip­u­late, or oth­er­wise take ad­van­tage of the ig­no­rance or other lim­i­ta­tions of man­sion world stu­dents. They are wholly fair and em­i­nently just. They re­spect your new­born mor­ontia will; they re­gard you as in­de­pen­dent vo­li­tional be­ings, and they seek to en­cour­age your speedy de­vel­op­ment and ad­vance­ment. Here you are face to face with true friends and un­der­stand­ing coun­selors, an­gels who are re­ally able to help you “to see your­self as oth­ers see you” and “to know your­self as an­gels know you.”

48:6.26Even on Uran­tia, these ser­a­phim teach the ev­er­last­ing truth: If your own mind does not serve you well, you can ex­change it for the mind of Je­sus of Naz­a­reth, who al­ways serves you well.
