Ancients of Days occupy point of spiritual polarity on Uversa 1 paragraph

18:3.6The per­sonal abodes of each trio of the An­cients of Days are lo­cated at the point of spir­i­tual po­lar­ity on their head­quar­ters sphere. Such a sphere is di­vided into sev­enty ad­min­is­tra­tive sec­tors and has sev­enty di­vi­sional cap­i­tals in which the An­cients of Days re­side from time to time.

on Urantia 2 paragraphs

62:7.2It was an event­ful day on Uran­tia when our small group gath­ered about the plan­e­tary pole of space com­mu­ni­ca­tion and re­ceived the first mes­sage from Sal­ving­ton over the newly es­tab­lished mind cir­cuit of the planet. And this first mes­sage, dic­tated by the chief of the arch­an­gel corps, said:

189:3.2The cir­cuit of the arch­an­gels then op­er­ated for the first time from Uran­tia. Ga­briel and the arch­an­gel hosts moved to the place of the spir­i­tual po­lar­ity of the planet; and when Ga­briel gave the sig­nal, there flashed to the first of the sys­tem man­sion worlds the voice of Ga­briel, say­ing: “By the man­date of Mi­chael, let the dead of a Uran­tia dis­pen­sa­tion rise!” Then all the sur­vivors of the hu­man races of Uran­tia who had fallen asleep since the days of Adam, and who had not al­ready gone on to judg­ment, ap­peared in the res­ur­rec­tion halls of man­so­nia in readi­ness for mor­ontia in­vesti­ture. And in an in­stant of time the ser­a­phim and their as­so­ciates made ready to de­part for the man­sion worlds. Or­di­nar­ily these se­raphic guard­i­ans, one­time as­signed to the group cus­tody of these sur­viv­ing mor­tals, would have been pres­ent at the mo­ment of their awak­ing in the res­ur­rec­tion halls of man­so­nia, but they were on this world it­self at this time be­cause of the ne­ces­sity of Ga­briel’s pres­ence here in con­nec­tion with the mor­ontia res­ur­rec­tion of Je­sus.

reflective focus on Uversa not same as spiritual focus 1 paragraph

17:3.1The forty-nine Re­flec­tive Spir­its are of Trin­ity ori­gin, but each of the seven cre­ative episodes at­ten­dant upon their ap­pear­ance was pro­duc­tive of a type of be­ing in na­ture re­sem­bling the char­ac­ter­is­tics of the coances­tral Mas­ter Spirit. Thus they var­i­ously re­flect the na­tures and char­ac­ters of the seven pos­si­ble com­bi­na­tions of the as­so­ci­a­tion of the di­vin­ity char­ac­ter­is­tics of the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther, the Eter­nal Son, and the In­fi­nite Spirit. For this rea­son it is nec­es­sary to have seven of these Re­flec­tive Spir­its on the head­quar­ters of each super­uni­verse. One of each of the seven types is re­quired in or­der to achieve the per­fect re­flec­tion of all phases of ev­ery pos­si­ble man­i­fes­ta­tion of the three Par­a­dise De­i­ties as such phe­nom­ena might oc­cur in any part of the seven super­uni­verses. One of each type was ac­cord­ingly as­signed to ser­vice in each of the super­uni­verses. These groups of seven dis­sim­i­lar Re­flec­tive Spir­its main­tain head­quar­ters on the cap­i­tals of the super­uni­verses at the re­flec­tive fo­cus of each realm, and this is not iden­ti­cal with the point of spir­i­tual po­lar­ity.

space reports received at; seraphic transports depart from 3 paragraphs

39:5.13When ce­les­tial be­ings are to be en­ser­a­phimed for trans­fer from one world to an­other, they are brought to the head­quar­ters of the sphere and, af­ter due reg­istry, are in­ducted into the tran­sit sleep. Mean­time, the trans­port ser­a­phim moves into a hor­i­zon­tal po­si­tion im­me­di­ately above the uni­verse en­ergy pole of the planet. While the en­ergy shields are wide open, the sleep­ing per­son­al­ity is skill­fully de­posited, by the of­fi­ci­at­ing se­raphic as­sis­tants, di­rectly on top of the trans­port an­gel. Then both the up­per and lower pairs of shields are care­fully closed and ad­justed.

39:5.14And now, un­der the in­flu­ence of the trans­form­ers and the trans­mit­ters, a strange meta­mor­pho­sis be­gins as the ser­a­phim is made ready to swing into the en­ergy cur­rents of the uni­verse cir­cuits. To out­ward ap­pear­ance the ser­a­phim grows pointed at both ex­trem­i­ties and be­comes so en­shrouded in a queer light of am­ber hue that very soon it is im­pos­si­ble to dis­tin­guish the en­ser­a­phimed per­son­al­ity. When all is in readi­ness for de­par­ture, the chief of trans­port makes the proper in­spec­tion of the car­riage of life, car­ries out the rou­tine tests to as­cer­tain whether or not the an­gel is prop­erly en­cir­cuited, and then an­nounces that the trav­eler is prop­erly en­ser­a­phimed, that the en­er­gies are ad­justed, that the an­gel is in­su­lated, and that ev­ery­thing is in readi­ness for the de­part­ing flash. The me­chan­i­cal con­trol­lers, two of them, next take their po­si­tions. By this time the trans­port ser­a­phim has be­come an al­most trans­par­ent, vi­brat­ing, tor­pedo-shaped out­line of glis­ten­ing lu­mi­nos­ity. Now the trans­port dis­patcher of the realm sum­mons the aux­il­iary bat­ter­ies of the liv­ing en­ergy trans­mit­ters, usu­ally one thou­sand in num­ber; as he an­nounces the des­ti­na­tion of the trans­port, he reaches out and touches the near point of the se­raphic car­riage, which shoots for­ward with light­ning­like speed, leav­ing a trail of ce­les­tial lu­mi­nos­ity as far as the plan­e­tary at­mo­spheric in­vest­ment ex­tends. In less than ten min­utes the mar­velous spec­ta­cle will be lost even to re­in­forced se­raphic vi­sion.

39:5.15While plan­e­tary space re­ports are re­ceived at noon at the merid­ian of the des­ig­nated spir­i­tual head­quar­ters, the trans­port­ers are dis­patched from this same place at mid­night. That is the most fa­vor­able time for de­par­ture and is the stan­dard hour when not oth­er­wise spec­i­fied.
