43:1.7The sea of glass, the re­ceiv­ing area of Eden­tia, is near the ad­min­is­tra­tive cen­ter and is en­cir­cled by the head­quar­ters am­phithe­ater. Sur­round­ing this area are the gov­ern­ing cen­ters for the sev­enty di­vi­sions of con­stel­la­tion af­fairs. One half of Eden­tia is di­vided into sev­enty tri­an­gu­lar sec­tions, whose bound­aries con­verge at the head­quar­ters build­ings of their re­spec­tive sec­tors. The re­main­der of this sphere is one vast nat­u­ral park, the gar­dens of God.

43:1.8Dur­ing your pe­ri­odic vis­its to Eden­tia, though the en­tire planet is open to your in­spec­tion, most of your time will be spent in that ad­min­is­tra­tive tri­an­gle whose num­ber cor­re­sponds to that of your cur­rent res­i­den­tial world. You will al­ways be wel­come as an ob­server in the leg­isla­tive as­sem­blies.

43:1.9The mor­ontia area as­signed to as­cend­ing mor­tals res­i­dent on Eden­tia is lo­cated in the mid-zone of the thirty-fifth tri­an­gle ad­join­ing the head­quar­ters of the fi­nal­i­ters, sit­u­ated in the thirty-sixth tri­an­gle. The gen­eral head­quar­ters of the uni­v­i­ta­tia oc­cu­pies an enor­mous area in the mid-re­gion of the thirty-fourth tri­an­gle im­me­di­ately ad­join­ing the res­i­den­tial reser­va­tion of the mor­ontia cit­i­zens. From these ar­range­ments it may be seen that pro­vi­sion is made for the ac­com­mo­da­tion of at least sev­enty ma­jor di­vi­sions of ce­les­tial life, and also that each of these sev­enty tri­an­gu­lar ar­eas is cor­re­lated with some one of the sev­enty ma­jor spheres of mor­ontia train­ing.

46:4.54. The tri­an­gles—the lo­cal or Je­ru­sem ad­min­is­tra­tive ar­eas.

46:8.1The purely lo­cal and rou­tine af­fairs of Je­ru­sem are di­rected from the one hun­dred tri­an­gles. These units are clus­tered around the ten mar­velous struc­tures domi­cil­ing the lo­cal ad­min­is­tra­tion of Je­ru­sem. The tri­an­gles are sur­rounded by the panoramic de­pic­tion of the sys­tem head­quar­ters his­tory. At pres­ent there is an era­sure of over two stan­dard miles in this cir­cu­lar story. This sec­tor will be re­stored upon the read­mis­sion of Sa­ta­nia into the con­stel­la­tion fam­ily. Ev­ery pro­vi­sion for this event has been made by the de­crees of Mi­chael, but the tri­bu­nal of the An­cients of Days has not yet fin­ished the ad­ju­di­ca­tion of the af­fairs of the Lu­cifer re­bel­lion. Sa­ta­nia may not come back into the full fel­low­ship of Nor­la­ti­adek so long as it har­bors arch­re­bels, high cre­ated be­ings who have fallen from light into dark­ness.

46:8.2When Sa­ta­nia can re­turn to the con­stel­la­tion fold, then will come up for con­sid­er­a­tion the read­mis­sion of the iso­lated worlds into the sys­tem fam­ily of in­hab­ited plan­ets, ac­com­pa­nied by their restora­tion to the spir­i­tual com­mu­nion of the realms. But even if Uran­tia were re­stored to the sys­tem cir­cuits, you would still be em­bar­rassed by the fact that your whole sys­tem rests un­der a Nor­la­ti­adek quar­an­tine par­tially seg­re­gat­ing it from all other sys­tems.

46:8.3But ere long, the ad­ju­di­ca­tion of Lu­cifer and his as­so­ciates will re­store the Sa­ta­nia sys­tem to the Nor­la­ti­adek con­stel­la­tion, and sub­se­quently, Uran­tia and the other iso­lated spheres will be re­stored to the Sa­ta­nia cir­cuits, and again will such worlds en­joy the priv­i­leges of in­ter­plan­e­tary com­mu­ni­ca­tion and in­ter­sys­tem com­mu­nion.

46:8.4There will come an end for rebels and re­bel­lion. The Su­preme Rulers are mer­ci­ful and pa­tient, but the law of de­lib­er­ately nour­ished evil is uni­ver­sally and unerringly ex­e­cuted. “The wages of sin is death”—eter­nal oblit­er­a­tion.

46:8.5[Pre­sented by an Arch­an­gel of Neb­a­don.]
