Most Holy Sphere

3 paragraphs · about 1 minute

Every paragraph the index cites under Most Holy Sphere, once, in the order of the book. Beside each stand the entries that cite it.

11:3.1On up­per Par­a­dise there are three grand spheres of ac­tiv­ity, the De­ity pres­ence, the Most Holy Sphere, and the Holy Area. The vast re­gion im­me­di­ately sur­round­ing the pres­ence of the De­i­ties is set aside as the Most Holy Sphere and is re­served for the func­tions of wor­ship, trin­i­ti­za­tion, and high spir­i­tual at­tain­ment. There are no ma­te­rial struc­tures nor purely in­tel­lec­tual cre­ations in this zone; they could not ex­ist there. It is use­less for me to un­der­take to por­tray to the hu­man mind the di­vine na­ture and the beau­teous grandeur of the Most Holy Sphere of Par­a­dise. This realm is wholly spir­i­tual, and you are al­most wholly ma­te­rial. A purely spir­i­tual re­al­ity is, to a purely ma­te­rial be­ing, ap­par­ently nonex­is­tent.

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.

13:2.4The Trin­ity-ori­gin be­ings do not fully share the Fa­ther’s worlds; they have their sole homes on the Isle of Par­a­dise in close prox­im­ity to the Most Holy Sphere. They of­ten ap­pear on As­cend­ing­ton, the “bo­som of the Fa­ther-Son-Spirit,” where they frat­er­nize with their breth­ren who have come up from the lowly worlds of space.
