Son seizure

5 paragraphs · about 2 minutes

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

49:6.185. Mor­tals of the pri­mary mod­i­fied or­der of as­cen­sion. These mor­tals be­long to the Ad­juster-fused type of evo­lu­tion­ary life, but they are most of­ten rep­re­sen­ta­tive of the fi­nal phases of hu­man de­vel­op­ment on an evolv­ing world. These glo­ri­fied be­ings are ex­empt from pass­ing through the por­tals of death; they are sub­mit­ted to Son seizure; they are trans­lated from among the liv­ing and ap­pear im­me­di­ately in the pres­ence of the Sov­er­eign Son on the head­quar­ters of the lo­cal uni­verse.

49:6.19These are the mor­tals who fuse with their Ad­justers dur­ing mor­tal life, and such Ad­juster-fused per­son­al­i­ties tra­verse space freely be­fore be­ing clothed with mor­ontia forms. These fused souls go by di­rect Ad­juster tran­sit to the res­ur­rec­tion halls of the higher mor­ontia spheres, where they re­ceive their ini­tial mor­ontia in­vesti­ture just as do all other mor­tals ar­riv­ing from the evo­lu­tion­ary worlds.

49:6.20This pri­mary mod­i­fied or­der of mor­tal as­cen­sion may ap­ply to in­di­vid­u­als in any of the plan­e­tary se­ries from the low­est to the high­est stages of the Ad­juster-fu­sion worlds, but it more fre­quently func­tions on the older of these spheres af­ter they have re­ceived the ben­e­fits of nu­mer­ous so­journs of the di­vine Sons.

49:6.21With the es­tab­lish­ment of the plan­e­tary era of light and life, many go to the uni­verse mor­ontia worlds by the pri­mary mod­i­fied or­der of trans­la­tion. Fur­ther along in the ad­vanced stages of set­tled ex­is­tence, when the ma­jor­ity of the mor­tals leav­ing a realm are em­braced in this class, the planet is re­garded as be­long­ing to this se­ries. Nat­u­ral death be­comes de­creas­ingly fre­quent on these spheres long set­tled in light and life.

55:2.9The trans­lated souls of the flow­er­ing ages of the set­tled spheres do not pass through the man­sion worlds. Nei­ther do they so­journ, as stu­dents, on the mor­ontia worlds of the sys­tem or con­stel­la­tion. They do not pass through any of the ear­lier phases of mor­ontia life. They are the only as­cend­ing mor­tals who so nearly es­cape the mor­ontia tran­si­tion from ma­te­rial ex­is­tence to semispirit sta­tus. The ini­tial ex­pe­ri­ence of such Son-seized mor­tals in the as­cen­sion ca­reer is in the ser­vices of the pro­gres­sion worlds of the uni­verse head­quar­ters. And from these study worlds of Sal­ving­ton they go back as teach­ers to the very worlds they passed by, sub­se­quently go­ing on in­ward to Par­a­dise by the es­tab­lished route of mor­tal as­cen­sion.
