13:2.9All these se­crets are sup­pos­edly known to the col­lec­tive body of the Trin­i­tized Se­crets of Su­prem­acy. These be­ings are fully known only by their spe­cial world groups; they are lit­tle com­pre­hended by other or­ders. Af­ter you at­tain Par­a­dise, you will know and ar­dently love the ten Se­crets of Su­prem­acy who di­rect As­cend­ing­ton. Ex­cept­ing Di­vin­ing­ton, you will also achieve a par­tial un­der­stand­ing of the Se­crets of Su­prem­acy on the other worlds of the Fa­ther, though not so per­fectly as on As­cend­ing­ton.

13:2.10The Trin­i­tized Se­crets of Su­prem­acy, as their name might sug­gest, are re­lated to the Su­preme; they are like­wise re­lated to the Ul­ti­mate and to the fu­ture Su­preme-Ul­ti­mate. These Se­crets of Su­prem­acy are the se­crets of the Su­preme and also the se­crets of the Ul­ti­mate, even the se­crets of the Su­preme-Ul­ti­mate.

18:1.1There are seven worlds in the in­ner­most cir­cuit of the Par­a­dise satel­lites, and each of these ex­alted worlds is pre­sided over by a corps of ten Trin­i­tized Se­crets of Su­prem­acy. They are not cre­ators, but they are su­preme and ul­ti­mate ad­min­is­tra­tors. The con­duct of the af­fairs of these seven fra­ter­nal spheres is wholly com­mit­ted to this corps of sev­enty su­preme di­rec­tors. Though the off­spring of the Trin­ity super­vise these seven sa­cred spheres near­est Par­a­dise, this group of worlds is uni­ver­sally known as the per­sonal cir­cuit of the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther.

18:1.2The Trin­i­tized Se­crets of Su­prem­acy func­tion in groups of ten as co-or­di­nate and joint di­rec­tors of their re­spec­tive spheres, but they also func­tion in­di­vid­u­ally in par­tic­u­lar fields of re­spon­si­bil­ity. The work of each of these spe­cial worlds is di­vided into seven ma­jor de­part­ments, and one of these co-or­di­nate rulers pre­sides over each such di­vi­sion of spe­cial­ized ac­tiv­i­ties. The re­main­ing three act as the per­sonal rep­re­sen­ta­tives of tri­une De­ity in re­la­tion to the other seven, one rep­re­sent­ing the Fa­ther, one the Son, and one the Spirit.

18:1.3Al­though there is a def­i­nite class re­sem­blance which typ­i­fies the Trin­i­tized Se­crets of Su­prem­acy, they also dis­close seven dis­tinct group char­ac­ter­is­tics. The ten su­preme di­rec­tors of Di­vin­ing­ton af­fairs are re­flec­tive of the per­sonal char­ac­ter and na­ture of the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther; and so it is with each of these seven spheres: Each group of ten re­sem­bles that De­ity or De­ity as­so­ci­a­tion which is char­ac­ter­is­tic of their do­main. The ten di­rec­tors who rule As­cend­ing­ton are re­flec­tive of the com­bined na­ture of the Fa­ther, Son, and Spirit.

18:1.4I can re­veal very lit­tle about the work of these high per­son­al­i­ties on the seven sa­cred worlds of the Fa­ther, for they are truly the Se­crets of Su­prem­acy. There are no ar­bi­trary se­crets as­so­ci­ated with the ap­proach to the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther, the Eter­nal Son, or the In­fi­nite Spirit. The De­i­ties are an open book to all who at­tain di­vine per­fec­tion, but all the Se­crets of Su­prem­acy can never be fully at­tained. Al­ways will we be un­able fully to pen­e­trate the realms con­tain­ing the per­son­al­ity se­crets of De­ity as­so­ci­a­tion with the sev­en­fold group­ing of cre­ated be­ings.

18:1.5Since the work of these su­preme di­rec­tors has to do with the in­ti­mate and per­sonal con­tact of the De­i­ties with these seven ba­sic group­ings of uni­verse be­ings when domi­ciled on these seven spe­cial worlds or while func­tion­ing through­out the grand uni­verse, it is fit­ting that these very per­sonal re­la­tions and ex­traor­di­nary con­tacts should be held sa­credly se­cret. The Par­a­dise Cre­ators re­spect the pri­vacy and sanc­tity of per­son­al­ity even in their lowly crea­tures. And this is true both of in­di­vid­u­als and of the var­i­ous sep­a­rate or­ders of per­son­al­i­ties.

18:1.6To be­ings of even high uni­verse at­tain­ment these se­cret worlds ever re­main a test of loy­alty. It is given us fully and per­son­ally to know the eter­nal Gods, freely to know their char­ac­ters of di­vin­ity and per­fec­tion, but it is not granted us fully to pen­e­trate all of the per­sonal re­la­tions of the Par­a­dise Rulers with all of their crea­ture be­ings.

13:1.2The Par­a­dise worlds of the Fa­ther are di­rected by the high­est or­der of the Sta­tion­ary Sons of the Trin­ity, the Trin­i­tized Se­crets of Su­prem­acy. Of these worlds I can tell lit­tle; of their man­i­fold ac­tiv­i­ties I may tell less. Such in­for­ma­tion con­cerns only those be­ings who func­tion thereon and go forth there­from. And though I am some­what fa­mil­iar with six of these spe­cial worlds, never have I landed on Di­vin­ing­ton; that world is wholly for­bid­den to me.

13:1.3One of the rea­sons for the se­crecy of these worlds is be­cause each of these sa­cred spheres en­joys a spe­cial­ized rep­re­sen­ta­tion, or man­i­fes­ta­tion, of the De­i­ties com­pos­ing the Par­a­dise Trin­ity; not a per­son­al­ity, but a unique pres­ence of Di­vin­ity which can only be ap­pre­ci­ated and com­pre­hended by those par­tic­u­lar groups of in­tel­li­gences res­i­dent on, or ad­mis­si­ble to, that par­tic­u­lar sphere. The Trin­i­tized Se­crets of Su­prem­acy are the per­sonal agents of these spe­cial­ized and im­per­sonal pres­ences of Di­vin­ity. And the Se­crets of Su­prem­acy are highly per­sonal be­ings, su­perbly en­dowed and mar­velously adapted to their ex­alted and ex­act­ing work.
