12:3.92. Spir­i­tual Grav­ity. By the same tech­nique of com­par­a­tive es­ti­ma­tion and cal­cu­la­tion these re­searchers have ex­plored the pres­ent re­ac­tion ca­pac­ity of spirit grav­ity and, with the co-op­er­a­tion of Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers and other spirit per­son­al­i­ties, have ar­rived at the sum­ma­tion of the ac­tive spirit grav­ity of the Sec­ond Source and Cen­ter. And it is most in­struc­tive to note that they find about the same value for the ac­tual and func­tional pres­ence of spirit grav­ity in the grand uni­verse that they pos­tu­late for the pres­ent to­tal of ac­tive spirit grav­ity. In other words: At the pres­ent time prac­ti­cally the en­tire spirit grav­ity of the Eter­nal Son, com­puted on this the­ory of to­tal­ity, is ob­serv­able as func­tion­ing in the grand uni­verse. If these find­ings are de­pend­able, we may con­clude that the uni­verses now evolv­ing in outer space are at the pres­ent time wholly non­spir­i­tual. And if this is true, it would sat­is­fac­to­rily ex­plain why spirit-en­dowed be­ings are in pos­ses­sion of lit­tle or no in­for­ma­tion about these vast en­ergy man­i­fes­ta­tions aside from know­ing the fact of their phys­i­cal ex­is­tence.

• Solitarington is status sphere

13:1.16This is also the home of the Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers and of other per­son­al­i­ties of the super­an­gelic or­ders. You know of very few of these be­ings; there are vast num­bers of or­ders un­re­vealed on Uran­tia. Be­cause they are domi­ciled on the fifth world, it does not nec­es­sar­ily fol­low that the Fa­ther had aught to do with the cre­ation of Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers or their super­an­gelic as­so­ciates, but in this uni­verse age he does have to do with their func­tion. Dur­ing the pres­ent uni­verse age this is also the sta­tus sphere of the Uni­verse Power Di­rec­tors.

19:5.4The Mel­chiz­e­deks of Neb­a­don teach that In­spired Trin­ity Spir­its are des­tined, some­time in the eter­nal fu­ture, to func­tion in the places of the Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers, whose ranks are slowly but cer­tainly be­ing de­pleted by their as­sign­ment as as­so­ciates of cer­tain types of trin­i­tized sons.

• nature › without form, yet possess definite personalities

19:5.5The In­spired Spir­its are the soli­tary Spir­its of the uni­verse of uni­verses. As Spir­its they are very much like the Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers ex­cept that the lat­ter are dis­tinct per­son­al­i­ties. We ob­tain much of our knowl­edge of the In­spired Spir­its from the Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers, who de­tect their near­ness by virtue of an in­her­ent sen­si­tiv­ity to the pres­ence of the In­spired Spir­its which func­tions just as un­fail­ingly as a mag­netic nee­dle points to a mag­netic pole. When a Soli­tary Mes­sen­ger is near an In­spired Trin­ity Spirit, he is con­scious of a qual­i­ta­tive in­di­ca­tion of such a di­vine pres­ence and also of a very def­i­nite quan­ti­ta­tive reg­is­tra­tion which en­ables him ac­tu­ally to know the clas­si­fi­ca­tion or num­ber of the Spirit pres­ence or pres­ences.

• nature › only personalized creatures uniformly conscious of Adjusters, other prepersonal entities

19:5.6I may re­late a fur­ther in­ter­est­ing fact: When a Soli­tary Mes­sen­ger is on a planet whose in­hab­i­tants are in­dwelt by Thought Ad­justers, as on Uran­tia, he is aware of a qual­i­ta­tive ex­ci­ta­tion in his de­tec­tion-sen­si­tiv­ity to spirit pres­ence. In such in­stances there is no quan­ti­ta­tive ex­ci­ta­tion, only a qual­i­ta­tive ag­i­ta­tion. When on a planet to which Ad­justers do not come, con­tact with the na­tives does not pro­duce any such re­ac­tion. This sug­gests that Thought Ad­justers are in some man­ner re­lated to, or are con­nected with, the In­spired Spir­its of the Par­a­dise Trin­ity. In some way they may pos­si­bly be as­so­ci­ated in cer­tain phases of their work; but we do not re­ally know. They both orig­i­nate near the cen­ter and source of all things, but they are not the same or­der of be­ing. Thought Ad­justers spring from the Fa­ther alone; In­spired Spir­its are the off­spring of the Par­a­dise Trin­ity.

19:5.7The In­spired Spir­its do not ap­par­ently be­long to the evo­lu­tion­ary scheme of the in­di­vid­ual plan­ets or uni­verses, and yet they seem to be al­most ev­ery­where. Even as I am en­gaged in the for­mu­la­tion of this state­ment, my as­so­ci­ated Soli­tary Mes­sen­ger’s per­sonal sen­si­tiv­ity to the pres­ence of this or­der of Spirit in­di­cates that there is with us at this very mo­ment, not over twenty-five feet away, a Spirit of the In­spired or­der and of the third vol­ume of power pres­ence. The third vol­ume of power pres­ence sug­gests to us the prob­a­bil­ity that three In­spired Spir­its are func­tion­ing in li­ai­son.

19:5.8Of more than twelve or­ders of be­ings as­so­ci­ated with me at this time, the Soli­tary Mes­sen­ger is the only one aware of the pres­ence of these mys­te­ri­ous en­ti­ties of the Trin­ity. And fur­ther, while we are thus ap­prised of the near­ness of these di­vine Spir­its, we are all equally ig­no­rant of their mis­sion. We re­ally do not know whether they are merely in­ter­ested ob­servers of our do­ings, or whether they are, in some man­ner un­known to us, ac­tu­ally con­tribut­ing to the suc­cess of our un­der­tak­ing.

19:5.10On the super­uni­verse train­ing worlds and on the eter­nal cir­cuits of Ha­vona, I have frat­er­nized with the per­fect­ing mor­tals—spir­i­tu­al­ized and as­cen­dant souls from the evo­lu­tion­ary realms—but never have they been aware of the In­spired Spir­its, which ever and anon the pow­ers of de­tec­tion res­i­dent in the Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers would in­di­cate were very near us. I have freely con­versed with all or­ders of the Sons of God, high and low, and they like­wise are un­con­scious of the ad­mo­ni­tions of the In­spired Trin­ity Spir­its. They can and do look back in their ex­pe­ri­ences and re­count hap­pen­ings which are dif­fi­cult to ex­plain if the ac­tion of such Spir­its is not taken into ac­count. But ex­cept­ing Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers, and some­times Trin­ity-ori­gin be­ings, none of the ce­les­tial fam­ily have ever been con­scious of the near­ness of the In­spired Spir­its.

• nature › senior order of Higher Personalities of Infinite Spirit

23:0.1Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers are the per­sonal and uni­ver­sal corps of the Con­joint Cre­ator; they are the first and se­nior or­der of the Higher Per­son­al­i­ties of the In­fi­nite Spirit. They rep­re­sent the ini­tial cre­ative ac­tion of the In­fi­nite Spirit in soli­tary func­tion for the pur­pose of bring­ing into ex­is­tence soli­tary per­son­al­ity spir­its.

23:0.2These spirit mes­sen­gers were per­son­al­ized in a sin­gle cre­ative episode, and their num­ber is sta­tion­ary. Al­though I have one of these ex­traor­di­nary be­ings as­so­ci­ated with me on this pres­ent mis­sion, I do not know how many such per­son­al­i­ties ex­ist in the uni­verse of uni­verses. I only know, from time to time, how many are of reg­istry-rec­ord as func­tion­ing for the time be­ing within the ju­ris­dic­tion of our super­uni­verse. From the last Uversa re­port I ob­serve that there were al­most 7,690 tril­lion Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers then op­er­at­ing within the bound­aries of Or­von­ton; and I con­jec­ture that this is con­sid­er­ably less than one sev­enth of their to­tal num­ber.

• nature › functioned from near eternity

23:1.1Im­me­di­ately fol­low­ing the cre­ation of the Seven Spir­its of the Ha­vona Cir­cuits the In­fi­nite Spirit brought into be­ing the vast corps of Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers. There is no part of the uni­ver­sal cre­ation which is pre-ex­is­tent to the Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers ex­cept Par­a­dise and the Ha­vona cir­cuits; they have func­tioned through­out the grand uni­verse from near eter­nity. They are fun­da­men­tal to the di­vine tech­nique of the In­fi­nite Spirit for self-rev­e­la­tion to, and per­sonal con­tact with, the far-flung cre­ations of time and space.

• nature › equal; perfectly endowed

23:1.3These soli­tary spir­its came forth in the dawn of time as full-fledged and per­fectly en­dowed spirit be­ings. They are all equal, and there are no classes or sub­di­vi­sions founded on per­sonal vari­a­tion. Their clas­si­fi­ca­tions are based wholly on the type of work to which they are as­signed from time to time.

• nature › crave assignment to remote creations

23:1.4Mor­tals start out as well-nigh ma­te­rial be­ings on the worlds of space and as­cend in­ward to­wards the Great Cen­ters; these soli­tary spir­its start out at the cen­ter of all things and crave as­sign­ment to the re­mote cre­ations, even to the in­di­vid­ual worlds of the out­er­most lo­cal uni­verses and even on be­yond.

• nature › only beings who enjoy solitary existence

23:1.5Though de­nom­i­nated Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers, they are not lone­some spir­its, for they truly like to work alone. They are the only be­ings in all cre­ation who can and do en­joy a soli­tary ex­is­tence, al­beit they equally en­joy as­so­ci­a­tion with the very few or­ders of uni­verse in­tel­li­gence with whom they can frat­er­nize.

• nature › intercommunicate within same superuniverse
• nature › never known to stumble; exempt from apprehension

23:1.6Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers are not iso­lated in their ser­vice; they are con­stantly in touch with the wealth of the in­tel­lect of all cre­ation as they are ca­pa­ble of “lis­ten­ing in” on all the broad­casts of the realms of their so­journ. They can also in­ter­com­mu­ni­cate with mem­bers of their own im­me­di­ate corps, those be­ings do­ing the same kind of work in the same super­uni­verse. They could com­mu­ni­cate with oth­ers of their num­ber, but they have been di­rected by the coun­cil of the Seven Mas­ter Spir­its not to do so, and they are a loyal group; they do not dis­obey or de­fault. There is no rec­ord that a Soli­tary Mes­sen­ger ever stum­bled into dark­ness.

23:1.7The Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers, like the Uni­verse Power Di­rec­tors, are among the very few types of be­ings op­er­at­ing through­out the realms who are ex­empt from ap­pre­hen­sion or de­ten­tion by the tri­bu­nals of time and space. They could be cited to ap­pear be­fore no one ex­cept the Seven Mas­ter Spir­its, but not in all the an­nals of the mas­ter uni­verse has this Par­a­dise coun­cil ever been called upon to ad­ju­di­cate the case of a Soli­tary Mes­sen­ger.

• nature › constantly partake of Infinite Spirit’s direct circuit

23:1.8These mes­sen­gers of soli­tary as­sign­ment are a de­pend­able, self-re­liant, ver­sa­tile, thor­oughly spir­i­tual, and broadly sym­pa­thetic group of cre­ated be­ings de­rived from the Third Source and Cen­ter; they op­er­ate by the au­thor­ity of the In­fi­nite Spirit res­i­dent on the cen­tral Isle of Par­a­dise and as per­son­al­ized on the head­quar­ters spheres of the lo­cal uni­verses. They are con­stant par­tak­ers of the di­rect cir­cuit em­a­nat­ing from the In­fi­nite Spirit, even when they func­tion in the lo­cal cre­ations un­der the im­me­di­ate in­flu­ence of the lo­cal uni­verse Mother Spir­its.

• nature › cut off from Paradise circuit when ensembled
• nature › detect proximity of Adjusters

23:1.9There is a tech­ni­cal rea­son why these Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers must travel and work alone. For short pe­ri­ods and when sta­tion­ary, they can col­lab­o­rate in a group, but when thus en­sem­bled, they are al­to­gether cut off from the sus­te­nance and di­rec­tion of their Par­a­dise cir­cuit; they are wholly iso­lated. When in tran­sit, or when op­er­at­ing in the cir­cuits of space and the cur­rents of time, if two or more of this or­der are in close prox­im­ity, both or all are thrown out of li­ai­son with the higher cir­cu­lat­ing forces. They are “short cir­cuited” as you might de­scribe it in il­lus­tra­tive sym­bols. There­fore they have in­her­ent within them a power of au­to­matic alarm, a warn­ing sig­nal, which unerringly op­er­ates to ap­prise them of ap­proach­ing con­flicts and un­fail­ingly keeps them suf­fi­ciently sep­a­rated as not to in­ter­fere with their proper and ef­fec­tive func­tion­ing. They also pos­sess in­her­ent and au­to­matic pow­ers which de­tect and in­di­cate the prox­im­ity of both the In­spired Trin­ity Spir­its and the di­vine Thought Ad­justers.

• nature › no power of reproduction

23:1.10These mes­sen­gers pos­sess no power of per­son­al­ity ex­ten­sion or re­pro­duc­tion, but there is prac­ti­cally no work of the uni­verses in which they can­not en­gage, and to which they can­not con­tribute some­thing es­sen­tial and help­ful. Es­pe­cially are they the great time­savers for those who are con­cerned in the ad­min­is­tra­tion of uni­verse af­fairs; and they as­sist us all, from the high­est to the low­est.

23:2.1Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers are not per­ma­nently at­tached to any in­di­vid­ual or group of ce­les­tial per­son­al­i­ties. They are on duty, al­ways by as­sign­ment, and dur­ing such ser­vice they work un­der the im­me­di­ate super­vi­sion of those who di­rect the realms of their at­tach­ment. Among them­selves they have nei­ther or­ga­ni­za­tion nor gov­ern­ment of any kind; they are Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers.

23:2.2Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers are as­signed by the In­fi­nite Spirit to the fol­low­ing seven di­vi­sions of ser­vice:

23:2.31. Mes­sen­gers of the Par­a­dise Trin­ity.

23:2.42. Mes­sen­gers of the Ha­vona Cir­cuits.

23:2.53. Mes­sen­gers of the Super­uni­verses.

23:2.10These spirit mes­sen­gers are in ev­ery sense in­ter­change­able from one type of ser­vice to an­other; such trans­fers are con­stantly tak­ing place. There are no sep­a­rate or­ders of Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers; they are spir­i­tu­ally alike and in ev­ery sense equal. While they are gen­er­ally des­ig­nated by num­ber, they are known to the In­fi­nite Spirit by per­sonal names. They are known to the rest of us by the name or num­ber des­ig­na­tive of their cur­rent as­sign­ment.

23:2.111. Mes­sen­gers of the Par­a­dise Trin­ity. I am not per­mit­ted to re­veal much of the work of the group of mes­sen­gers as­signed to the Trin­ity. They are the trusted and se­cret ser­vants of the De­i­ties, and when in­trusted with spe­cial mes­sages which in­volve the un­re­vealed poli­cies and fu­ture con­duct of the Gods, they have never been known to di­vulge a se­cret or be­tray the con­fi­dence re­posed in their or­der. And all this is re­lated in this con­nec­tion, not to ap­pear boast­ful of their per­fec­tion, but rather to point out that the De­i­ties can and do cre­ate per­fect be­ings.

23:2.12The con­fu­sion and tur­moil of Uran­tia do not sig­nify that the Par­a­dise Rulers lack ei­ther in­ter­est or abil­ity to man­age af­fairs dif­fer­ently. The Cre­ators are pos­sessed of full power to make Uran­tia a ver­i­ta­ble par­a­dise, but such an Eden would not con­tribute to the de­vel­op­ment of those strong, no­ble, and ex­pe­ri­enced char­ac­ters which the Gods are so surely forg­ing out on your world be­tween the anvils of ne­ces­sity and the ham­mers of an­guish. Your anx­i­eties and sor­rows, your tri­als and dis­ap­point­ments, are just as much a part of the di­vine plan on your sphere as are the ex­qui­site per­fec­tion and in­fi­nite adap­ta­tion of all things to their su­preme pur­pose on the worlds of the cen­tral and per­fect uni­verse.

Through­out the as­cen­dant ca­reer you will be vaguely, but in­creas­ingly, able to de­tect the pres­ence of the Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers, but not un­til you reach Ha­vona will you rec­og­nize them un­mis­tak­ably. The first of the mes­sen­gers you will see face to face will be those of the Ha­vona cir­cuits.

23:2.14Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers en­joy spe­cial re­la­tions with the na­tives of the Ha­vona worlds. These mes­sen­gers, who are so func­tion­ally hand­i­capped when as­so­ci­at­ing with one an­other, can and do have a very close and per­sonal com­mu­nion with the Ha­vona na­tives. But it is quite im­pos­si­ble to con­vey to hu­man minds the su­preme sat­is­fac­tions con­se­quent upon the con­tact of the minds of these di­vinely per­fect be­ings with the spir­its of such near-tran­scen­dent per­son­al­i­ties.

The An­cients of Days, those per­son­al­i­ties of Trin­ity ori­gin who pre­side over the des­tinies of the seven super­uni­verses, those trios of di­vine power and ad­min­is­tra­tive wis­dom, are boun­ti­fully sup­plied with Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers. It is only through this or­der of mes­sen­gers that the tri­une rulers of one super­uni­verse can di­rectly and per­son­ally com­mu­ni­cate with the rulers of an­other. Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers are the only avail­able type of spirit in­tel­li­gence—aside, pos­si­bly, from the In­spired Trin­ity Spir­its—that can be dis­patched from the head­quar­ters of one super­uni­verse di­rectly to the head­quar­ters of an­other.

And when the An­cients of Days would cer­tainly know these things, they must dis­patch a Soli­tary Mes­sen­ger to the source of knowl­edge. Long be­fore the pres­ence of life on Uran­tia the mes­sen­ger now as­so­ci­ated with me was as­signed on a mis­sion out of Uversa to the cen­tral uni­verse—was ab­sent from the roll calls of Or­von­ton for al­most a mil­lion years but re­turned in due time with the de­sired in­for­ma­tion.

23:2.184. Mes­sen­gers of the Lo­cal Uni­verses. In the ser­vices of a lo­cal uni­verse there is no limit upon the func­tion­ing of the Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers. They are the faith­ful re­veal­ers of the mo­tives and in­tent of the lo­cal uni­verse Mother Spirit, al­though they are un­der the full ju­ris­dic­tion of the reign­ing Mas­ter Son.

Be­fore the con­cen­tra­tion of all power in the hands of a Cre­ator Son at the time of his el­e­va­tion as sov­er­eign ruler of his uni­verse, these mes­sen­gers of the lo­cal uni­verses func­tion un­der the gen­eral di­rec­tion of the An­cients of Days and are im­me­di­ately re­spon­si­ble to their res­i­dent rep­re­sen­ta­tive, the Union of Days.

When the re­serve corps of the Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers is over­recruited, there is­sues from one of the Seven Su­preme Power Di­rec­tors a call for ex­plo­ration vol­un­teers; and there is never a lack of vol­un­teers, for they de­light to be dis­patched as free and un­tram­meled ex­plor­ers, to ex­pe­ri­ence the thrill of find­ing the or­ga­niz­ing nu­cle­uses of new worlds and uni­verses.

23:2.20They go forth to in­ves­ti­gate the clues fur­nished by the space con­tem­pla­tors of the realms. Un­doubt­edly the Par­a­dise De­i­ties know of the ex­is­tence of these undis­cov­ered en­ergy sys­tems of space, but they never di­vulge such in­for­ma­tion. If the Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers did not ex­plore and chart these newly or­ga­niz­ing en­ergy cen­ters, such phe­nom­ena would long re­main un­no­ticed even by the in­tel­li­gences of ad­ja­cent realms. Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers, as a class, are highly sen­si­tive to grav­ity; ac­cord­ingly they can some­times de­tect the prob­a­ble pres­ence of very small dark plan­ets, the very worlds which are best adapted to life ex­per­i­ments.

23:2.21These mes­sen­ger-ex­plor­ers of undi­rected as­sign­ment pa­trol the mas­ter uni­verse. They are con­stantly out on ex­plor­ing ex­pe­di­tions to the un­charted re­gions of all outer space. Very much of the in­for­ma­tion which we pos­sess of trans­ac­tions in the realms of outer space, we owe to the ex­plo­rations of the Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers as they of­ten work and study with the ce­les­tial as­tron­o­mers.

23:2.226. Am­bas­sadors and Emis­saries of Spe­cial As­sign­ment. Lo­cal uni­verses sit­u­ated within the same super­uni­verse cus­tom­ar­ily ex­change am­bas­sadors se­lected from their na­tive or­ders of son­ship. But to avoid de­lay, Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers are fre­quently asked to go as am­bas­sadors from one lo­cal cre­ation to an­other, to rep­re­sent and in­ter­pret one realm to an­other. For ex­am­ple: When a newly in­hab­ited realm is dis­cov­ered, it may prove to be so re­mote in space that a long time will pass be­fore an en­ser­a­phimed am­bas­sador can reach this far-dis­tant uni­verse. An en­ser­a­phimed be­ing can­not pos­si­bly ex­ceed the ve­loc­ity of 558,840 Uran­tia miles in one sec­ond of your time. Mas­sive stars, cross­cur­rents, and de­tours, as well as at­trac­tion tan­gents, will all tend to re­tard such speed so that on a long jour­ney the ve­loc­ity will av­er­age about 550,000 miles per sec­ond.

23:2.23When it de­vel­ops that it will re­quire hun­dreds of years for a na­tive am­bas­sador to reach a far-dis­tant lo­cal uni­verse, a Soli­tary Mes­sen­ger is of­ten asked to pro­ceed there im­me­di­ately to act as am­bas­sador ad in­terim. Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers can go in very short or­der, not in­de­pen­dently of time and space as do the Grav­ity Mes­sen­gers, but nearly so. They also serve in other cir­cum­stances as emis­saries of spe­cial as­sign­ment.

And they func­tion ever and anon in this ca­pac­ity, from the super­uni­verses to the in­di­vid­ual plan­ets of space.

23:3.1The Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers are the high­est type of per­fect and con­fi­den­tial per­son­al­ity avail­able in all realms for the quick trans­mis­sion of im­por­tant and ur­gent mes­sages when it is in­ex­pe­di­ent to uti­lize ei­ther the broad­cast ser­vice or the re­flec­tiv­ity mech­a­nism. They serve in an end­less va­ri­ety of as­sign­ments, help­ing out the spir­i­tual and ma­te­rial be­ings of the realms, par­tic­u­larly where the el­e­ment of time is in­volved. Of all or­ders as­signed to the ser­vices of the super­uni­verse do­mains, they are the high­est and most ver­sa­tile per­son­al­ized be­ings who can come so near to de­fy­ing time and space.

23:3.2The uni­verse is well sup­plied with spir­its who uti­lize grav­ity for pur­poses of tran­sit; they can go any­where any time—in­stan­ter—but they are not per­sons. Cer­tain other grav­ity tra­versers are per­sonal be­ings, such as Grav­ity Mes­sen­gers and Tran­scen­den­tal Re­cord­ers, but they are not avail­able to the su­per- and the lo­cal uni­verse ad­min­is­tra­tors. The worlds teem with an­gels and men and other highly per­sonal be­ings, but they are hand­i­capped by time and space: The limit of ve­loc­ity for most nonenseraphimed be­ings is 186,280 miles of your world per sec­ond of your time; the mid­way crea­tures and cer­tain oth­ers can, of­ten do, at­tain dou­ble ve­loc­ity—372,560 miles per sec­ond—while the ser­a­phim and oth­ers can tra­verse space at triple ve­loc­ity, about 558,840 miles per sec­ond. There are, how­ever, no tran­sit or mes­sen­ger per­son­al­i­ties who func­tion be­tween the in­stan­ta­neous ve­loc­i­ties of the grav­ity tra­versers and the com­par­a­tively slow speeds of the ser­a­phim, ex­cept the Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers.

They are the only def­i­nitely per­son­al­ized be­ings who can syn­chro­nize with the com­bined uni­ver­sal cur­rents of the grand uni­verse. Their ve­loc­ity in travers­ing space is vari­able, de­pend­ing on a great va­ri­ety of in­ter­fer­ing in­flu­ences, but the rec­ord shows that on the jour­ney to ful­fill this mis­sion my as­so­ciate mes­sen­ger pro­ceeded at the rate of 841,621,642,000 of your miles per sec­ond of your time.

Al­though they are with­out that form which would nat­u­rally be as­so­ci­ated with per­son­al­ity, they do pos­sess a spirit pres­ence which is dis­cern­i­ble by all higher types of spirit be­ings. The Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers are the only class of be­ings who seem to be pos­sessed of well-nigh all the ad­van­tages of a form­less spirit cou­pled with all the pre­rog­a­tives of a full-fledged per­son­al­ity.

We like­wise un­fail­ingly de­tect the spirit pres­ence of cer­tain un­re­vealed or­ders spring­ing from the Eter­nal Son and the In­fi­nite Spirit. And we are not wholly un­re­spon­sive to still other en­ti­ties un­re­vealed to you.

108:3.10The Mel­chiz­e­deks of Neb­a­don teach that the Soli­tary Mes­sen­gers are the per­son­al­ity co-or­di­na­tors of these var­i­ous in­flu­ences as they reg­is­ter in the ex­pand­ing De­ity of the evo­lu­tion­ary Su­preme Be­ing. It is very pos­si­ble that we may be par­tic­i­pants in the ex­pe­ri­en­tial uni­fi­ca­tion of many of the un­ex­plained phe­nom­ena of time, but we are not con­sciously cer­tain of thus func­tion­ing.
