15:10.3Each super­uni­verse is pre­sided over by three An­cients of Days, the joint chief ex­ec­u­tives of the super­gov­ern­ment. In its ex­ec­u­tive branch the per­son­nel of the super­uni­verse gov­ern­ment con­sists of seven dif­fer­ent groups:

15:10.41. An­cients of Days.

15:10.52. Per­fec­tors of Wis­dom.

15:10.63. Di­vine Coun­selors.

15:10.74. Uni­ver­sal Cen­sors.

15:10.85. Mighty Mes­sen­gers.

15:10.96. Those High in Au­thor­ity.

15:10.107. Those with­out Name and Num­ber.

15:10.11The three An­cients of Days are im­me­di­ately as­sisted by a corps of one bil­lion Per­fec­tors of Wis­dom, with whom are as­so­ci­ated three bil­lion Di­vine Coun­selors. One bil­lion Uni­ver­sal Cen­sors are at­tached to each super­uni­verse ad­min­is­tra­tion. These three groups are Co-or­di­nate Trin­ity Per­son­al­i­ties, tak­ing ori­gin di­rectly and di­vinely in the Par­a­dise Trin­ity.

15:10.12The re­main­ing three or­ders, Mighty Mes­sen­gers, Those High in Au­thor­ity, and Those with­out Name and Num­ber, are glo­ri­fied as­cen­dant mor­tals. The first of these or­ders came up through the as­cen­dant regime and passed through Ha­vona in the days of Grand­fanda. Hav­ing at­tained Par­a­dise, they were mus­tered into the Corps of the Fi­nal­ity, em­braced by the Par­a­dise Trin­ity, and sub­se­quently as­signed to the su­per­nal ser­vice of the An­cients of Days. As a class, these three or­ders are known as Trin­i­tized Sons of At­tain­ment, be­ing of dual ori­gin but now of Trin­ity ser­vice. Thus was the ex­ec­u­tive branch of the super­uni­verse gov­ern­ment en­larged to in­clude the glo­ri­fied and per­fected chil­dren of the evo­lu­tion­ary worlds.

15:12.1When we speak of ex­ec­u­tive and de­lib­er­a­tive branches of the Uversa gov­ern­ment, you may, from the anal­ogy of cer­tain forms of Uran­tian civil gov­ern­ment, rea­son that we must have a third or ju­di­cial branch, and we do; but it does not have a sep­a­rate per­son­nel. Our courts are con­sti­tuted as fol­lows: There pre­sides, in ac­cor­dance with the na­ture and grav­ity of the case, an An­cient of Days, a Per­fec­tor of Wis­dom, or a Di­vine Coun­selor. The ev­i­dence for or against an in­di­vid­ual, a planet, sys­tem, con­stel­la­tion, or uni­verse is pre­sented and in­ter­preted by the Cen­sors. The de­fense of the chil­dren of time and the evo­lu­tion­ary plan­ets is of­fered by the Mighty Mes­sen­gers, the of­fi­cial ob­servers of the super­uni­verse gov­ern­ment to the lo­cal uni­verses and sys­tems. The at­ti­tude of the higher gov­ern­ment is por­trayed by Those High in Au­thor­ity. And or­di­nar­ily the ver­dict is for­mu­lated by a vary­ing-sized com­mis­sion con­sist­ing equally of Those with­out Name and Num­ber and a group of un­der­stand­ing per­son­al­i­ties cho­sen from the de­lib­er­a­tive as­sem­bly.

18:4.4The Per­fec­tions of Days have a mod­er­ate-sized corps of Di­vine Coun­selors, Per­fec­tors of Wis­dom, and Uni­ver­sal Cen­sors at­tached to their gov­ern­ments. They have still larger num­bers of Mighty Mes­sen­gers, Those High in Au­thor­ity, and Those with­out Name and Num­ber. But much of the rou­tine work of ma­jor sec­tor af­fairs is car­ried on by the Ce­les­tial Guard­i­ans and the High Son As­sis­tants. These two groups are drawn from among the trin­i­tized off­spring of ei­ther Par­a­dise-Ha­vona per­son­al­i­ties or glo­ri­fied mor­tal fi­nal­i­ters. Cer­tain of these two or­ders of crea­ture-trin­i­tized be­ings are re­trini­tized by the Par­a­dise De­i­ties and then are dis­patched to as­sist in the ad­min­is­tra­tion of the super­uni­verse gov­ern­ments.

19:2.4Wis­dom is two­fold in ori­gin, be­ing de­rived from the per­fec­tion of di­vine in­sight in­her­ent in per­fect be­ings and from the per­sonal ex­pe­ri­ence ac­quired by evo­lu­tion­ary crea­tures. The Per­fec­tors of Wis­dom are the di­vine wis­dom of the Par­a­dise per­fec­tion of De­ity in­sight. Their ad­min­is­tra­tive as­so­ciates on Uversa, the Mighty Mes­sen­gers, Those with­out Name and Num­ber, and Those High in Au­thor­ity, when act­ing to­gether, are the uni­verse wis­dom of ex­pe­ri­ence. A di­vine be­ing can have per­fec­tion of di­vine knowl­edge. An evo­lu­tion­ary mor­tal can some­time at­tain per­fec­tion of as­cen­dant knowl­edge, but nei­ther of these be­ings alone ex­hausts the po­ten­tials of all pos­si­ble wis­dom. Ac­cord­ingly, when­ever in the con­duct of the super­uni­verse it is de­sired to achieve the max­i­mum of ad­min­is­tra­tive wis­dom, these per­fec­tors of the wis­dom of di­vine in­sight are al­ways as­so­ci­ated with those as­cen­dant per­son­al­i­ties who have come up to the high re­spon­si­bil­i­ties of super­uni­verse au­thor­ity through the ex­pe­ri­en­tial tribu­la­tions of evo­lu­tion­ary pro­gres­sion.

19:3.6Di­vine Coun­selors are the per­fec­tion of the di­vine coun­sel of the Par­a­dise Trin­ity. We rep­re­sent, in fact are, the coun­sel of per­fec­tion. When we are sup­ple­mented by the ex­pe­ri­en­tial coun­sel of our as­so­ciates, the per­fected and Trin­ity-em­braced be­ings of evo­lu­tion­ary as­cent, our com­bined con­clu­sions are not only com­plete but re­plete. When our united coun­sel has been as­so­ci­ated, ad­ju­di­cated, con­firmed, and pro­mul­gated by a Uni­ver­sal Cen­sor, it is very prob­a­ble that it ap­proaches the thresh­old of uni­ver­sal to­tal­ity. Such ver­dicts rep­re­sent the near­est pos­si­ble ap­proach to the ab­so­lute at­ti­tude of De­ity within the time-space lim­its of the sit­u­a­tion in­volved and the prob­lem con­cerned.

19:3.7Seven Di­vine Coun­selors in li­ai­son with a trin­i­tized evo­lu­tion­ary trio—a Mighty Mes­sen­ger, One High in Au­thor­ity, and One with­out Name and Num­ber—rep­re­sent the near­est super­uni­verse ap­proach to the union of the hu­man view­point and the di­vine at­ti­tude on near-par­a­di­si­a­cal lev­els of spir­i­tual mean­ings and re­al­ity val­ues. Such close ap­prox­i­ma­tion of the united cos­mic at­ti­tudes of the crea­ture and the Cre­ator is only sur­passed in the Par­a­dise be­stowal Sons, who are, in ev­ery phase of per­son­al­ity ex­pe­ri­ence, God and man.

• have transcendent concept of Father’s eternal purpose
• Trinitized Sons of Attainment

22:4.1Those with­out Name and Num­ber con­sti­tute the third and last group of the Trin­i­tized Sons of At­tain­ment; they are the as­cen­dant souls who have de­vel­oped the abil­ity to wor­ship be­yond the skill of all the sons and daugh­ters of the evo­lu­tion­ary races from the worlds of time and space. They have ac­quired a spir­i­tual con­cept of the eter­nal pur­pose of the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther which com­par­a­tively tran­scends the com­pre­hen­sion of the evo­lu­tion­ary crea­tures of name or num­ber; there­fore are they de­nom­i­nated Those with­out Name and Num­ber. More strictly trans­lated, their name would be “Those above Name and Num­ber.”

• number 700 million

22:4.2This or­der of sons is em­braced by the Par­a­dise Trin­ity in groups of seven thou­sand. There are of rec­ord on Uversa over one hun­dred mil­lion of these sons com­mis­sioned in Or­von­ton.

• superior spiritual minds of survival races
• supreme jurors in superuniverse courts

22:4.3Since Those with­out Name and Num­ber are the su­pe­rior spir­i­tual minds of the sur­vival races, they are es­pe­cially qual­i­fied to sit in judg­ment and to ren­der opin­ions when a spir­i­tual view­point is de­sir­able, and when ex­pe­ri­ence in the as­cen­dant ca­reer is es­sen­tial to an ad­e­quate com­pre­hen­sion of the ques­tions in­volved in the prob­lem to be ad­ju­di­cated. They are the su­preme ju­rors of Or­von­ton. A mal­ad­min­is­tered jury sys­tem may be more or less of a trav­esty of jus­tice on some worlds, but on Uversa and its ex­ten­sion tri­bu­nals we em­ploy the high­est type of evolved spir­i­tual men­tal­ity as ju­ror-judges. Ad­ju­di­ca­tion is the high­est func­tion of any gov­ern­ment, and those who are in­trusted with ver­dict ren­der­ing should be cho­sen from the high­est and most no­ble types of the most ex­pe­ri­enced and un­der­stand­ing in­di­vid­u­als.

• selection is inherent and automatic

22:4.4The se­lec­tion of can­di­dates for the trin­i­ti­za­tion classes of Mighty Mes­sen­gers, Those High in Au­thor­ity, and Those with­out Name and Num­ber is in­her­ent and au­to­matic. The se­lec­tive tech­niques of Par­a­dise are not in any sense ar­bi­trary. Per­sonal ex­pe­ri­ence and spir­i­tual val­ues de­ter­mine the per­son­nel of the Trin­i­tized Sons of At­tain­ment. Such be­ings are equal in au­thor­ity and uni­form in ad­min­is­tra­tive sta­tus, but they all pos­sess in­di­vid­u­al­ity and di­verse char­ac­ters; they are not stan­dard­ized be­ings. All are char­ac­ter­is­ti­cally dif­fer­ent, de­pend­ing on the dif­fer­en­tials of their as­cen­dant ca­reers.

22:4.5In ad­di­tion to these ex­pe­ri­en­tial qual­i­fi­ca­tions, the Trin­i­tized Sons of At­tain­ment have been trin­i­tized in the di­vine em­brace of the Par­a­dise De­i­ties. Con­se­quently they func­tion as the co-or­di­nate as­so­ciates of the Sta­tion­ary Sons of the Trin­ity, for the Trin­ity em­brace does seem to pre­cip­i­tate out of the stream of fu­ture time many of the un­re­al­ized po­ten­tials of crea­ture be­ings. But this is true con­cern­ing only that which per­tains to the pres­ent uni­verse age.

22:4.6This group of sons is chiefly, but not wholly, con­cerned with the ser­vices of the as­cen­dant ca­reer of the time-space mor­tals. If the view­point of a mor­tal crea­ture is ever in doubt, the ques­tion is set­tled by ap­peal to an as­cen­dant com­mis­sion con­sist­ing of a Mighty Mes­sen­ger, One High in Au­thor­ity, and One with­out Name and Num­ber.

22:4.7You mor­tals who read this mes­sage may your­selves as­cend to Par­a­dise, at­tain the Trin­ity em­brace, and in re­mote fu­ture ages be at­tached to the ser­vice of the An­cients of Days in one of the seven super­uni­verses, and some­time be as­signed to en­large the rev­e­la­tion of truth to some evolv­ing in­hab­ited planet, even as I am now func­tion­ing on Uran­tia.

• High Son Assistants serve as clerks for

22:10.1The High Son As­sis­tants are the su­pe­rior group of the re­trini­tized trin­i­tized sons of glo­ri­fied as­cen­dant be­ings of the Mor­tal Corps of the Fi­nal­ity and of their eter­nal as­so­ciates, the Par­a­dise-Ha­vona per­son­al­i­ties. They are as­signed to the super­uni­verse ser­vice and func­tion as per­sonal aids to the high sons of the gov­ern­ments of the An­cients of Days. They might fit­tingly be de­nom­i­nated pri­vate sec­re­taries. They act, from time to time, as clerks for spe­cial com­mis­sions and other group as­so­ci­a­tions of the high sons. They serve Per­fec­tors of Wis­dom, Di­vine Coun­selors, Uni­ver­sal Cen­sors, Mighty Mes­sen­gers, Those High in Au­thor­ity, and Those with­out Name and Num­ber.

• Trinitized Sons of Attainment

28:6.1In the same man­ner as their fel­lows, these an­gels are cre­ated se­ri­ally and in seven re­flec­tive types, but these types are not as­signed in­di­vid­u­ally to the sep­a­rate ser­vices of the super­uni­verse ad­min­is­tra­tors. All ter­tiary se­con­a­phim are col­lec­tively as­signed to the Trin­i­tized Sons of At­tain­ment, and these as­cen­dant sons use them in­ter­change­ably; that is, the Mighty Mes­sen­gers can and do uti­lize any of the ter­tiary types, and so do their co-or­di­nates, Those High in Au­thor­ity and Those with­out Name and Num­ber. These seven types of ter­tiary se­con­a­phim are:

• in Uversa personality register

31:10.22These thirty-one pa­pers de­pict­ing the na­ture of De­ity, the re­al­ity of Par­a­dise, the or­ga­ni­za­tion and work­ing of the cen­tral and super­uni­verses, the per­son­al­i­ties of the grand uni­verse, and the high des­tiny of evo­lu­tion­ary mor­tals, were spon­sored, for­mu­lated, and put into En­glish by a high com­mis­sion con­sist­ing of twenty-four Or­von­ton ad­min­is­tra­tors act­ing in ac­cor­dance with a man­date is­sued by the An­cients of Days of Uversa di­rect­ing that we should do this on Uran­tia, 606 of Sa­ta­nia, in Nor­la­ti­adek of Neb­a­don, in the year A.D. 1934.
