triunities

104:3.1While man­kind has some­times grasped at an un­der­stand­ing of the Trin­ity of the three per­sons of De­ity, con­sis­tency de­mands that the hu­man in­tel­lect per­ceive that there are cer­tain re­la­tion­ships be­tween all seven Ab­so­lutes. But all that which is true of the Par­a­dise Trin­ity is not nec­es­sar­ily true of a tri­unity, for a tri­unity is some­thing other than a trin­ity. In cer­tain func­tional as­pects a tri­unity may be anal­o­gous to a trin­ity, but it is never ho­mol­o­gous in na­ture with a trin­ity.

104:3.2Mor­tal man is pass­ing through a great age of ex­pand­ing hori­zons and en­larg­ing con­cepts on Uran­tia, and his cos­mic phi­los­o­phy must ac­cel­er­ate in evo­lu­tion to keep pace with the ex­pan­sion of the in­tel­lec­tual arena of hu­man thought. As the cos­mic con­scious­ness of mor­tal man ex­pands, he per­ceives the in­ter­re­lat­ed­ness of all that he finds in his ma­te­rial sci­ence, in­tel­lec­tual phi­los­o­phy, and spir­i­tual in­sight. Still, with all this be­lief in the unity of the cos­mos, man per­ceives the di­ver­sity of all ex­is­tence. In spite of all con­cepts con­cern­ing the im­mutabil­ity of De­ity, man per­ceives that he lives in a uni­verse of con­stant change and ex­pe­ri­en­tial growth. Re­gard­less of the re­al­iza­tion of the sur­vival of spir­i­tual val­ues, man has ever to reckon with the math­e­mat­ics and pre­math­e­mat­ics of force, en­ergy, and power.

104:3.3In some man­ner the eter­nal re­plete­ness of in­fin­ity must be rec­on­ciled with the time-growth of the evolv­ing uni­verses and with the in­com­plete­ness of the ex­pe­ri­en­tial in­hab­i­tants thereof. In some way the con­cep­tion of to­tal in­fini­tude must be so seg­mented and qual­i­fied that the mor­tal in­tel­lect and the mor­ontia soul can grasp this con­cept of fi­nal value and spir­i­tu­al­iz­ing sig­nif­i­cance.

104:3.4While rea­son de­mands a mono­the­is­tic unity of cos­mic re­al­ity, fi­nite ex­pe­ri­ence re­quires the pos­tu­late of plu­ral Ab­so­lutes and of their co-or­di­na­tion in cos­mic re­la­tion­ships. With­out co-or­di­nate ex­is­tences there is no pos­si­bil­ity for the ap­pear­ance of di­ver­sity of ab­so­lute re­la­tion­ships, no chance for the op­er­a­tion of dif­fer­en­tials, vari­ables, mod­i­fiers, at­ten­u­a­tors, qual­i­fiers, or di­min­ish­ers.

104:3.5In these pa­pers to­tal re­al­ity (in­fin­ity) has been pre­sented as it ex­ists in the seven Ab­so­lutes:

104:3.61. The Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther.

104:3.72. The Eter­nal Son.

104:3.83. The In­fi­nite Spirit.

104:3.94. The Isle of Par­a­dise.

104:3.105. The De­ity Ab­so­lute.

104:3.116. The Uni­ver­sal Ab­so­lute.

104:3.127. The Un­qual­i­fied Ab­so­lute.

104:3.13The First Source and Cen­ter, who is Fa­ther to the Eter­nal Son, is also Pat­tern to the Par­a­dise Isle. He is per­son­al­ity un­qual­i­fied in the Son but per­son­al­ity po­ten­tial­ized in the De­ity Ab­so­lute. The Fa­ther is en­ergy re­vealed in Par­a­dise-Ha­vona and at the same time en­ergy con­cealed in the Un­qual­i­fied Ab­so­lute. The In­fi­nite is ever dis­closed in the cease­less acts of the Con­joint Ac­tor while he is eter­nally func­tion­ing in the com­pen­sat­ing but en­shrouded ac­tiv­i­ties of the Uni­ver­sal Ab­so­lute. Thus is the Fa­ther re­lated to the six co-or­di­nate Ab­so­lutes, and thus do all seven en­com­pass the cir­cle of in­fin­ity through­out the end­less cy­cles of eter­nity.

104:3.14It would seem that tri­unity of ab­so­lute re­la­tion­ships is in­ev­i­ta­ble. Per­son­al­ity seeks other per­son­al­ity as­so­ci­a­tion on ab­so­lute as well as on all other lev­els. And the as­so­ci­a­tion of the three Par­a­dise per­son­al­i­ties eter­nal­izes the first tri­unity, the per­son­al­ity union of the Fa­ther, the Son, and the Spirit. For when these three per­sons, as per­sons, con­join for united func­tion, they thereby con­sti­tute a tri­unity of func­tional unity, not a trin­ity—an or­ganic en­tity—but nonethe­less a tri­unity, a three­fold func­tional ag­gre­gate una­nim­ity.

104:3.15The Par­a­dise Trin­ity is not a tri­unity; it is not a func­tional una­nim­ity; rather is it un­di­vided and in­di­vis­i­ble De­ity. The Fa­ther, Son, and Spirit (as per­sons) can sus­tain a re­la­tion­ship to the Par­a­dise Trin­ity, for the Trin­ity is their un­di­vided De­ity. The Fa­ther, Son, and Spirit sus­tain no such per­sonal re­la­tion­ship to the first tri­unity, for that is their func­tional union as three per­sons. Only as the Trin­ity—as un­di­vided De­ity—do they col­lec­tively sus­tain an ex­ter­nal re­la­tion­ship to the tri­unity of their per­sonal ag­gre­ga­tion.

104:3.16Thus does the Par­a­dise Trin­ity stand unique among ab­so­lute re­la­tion­ships; there are sev­eral ex­is­ten­tial tri­uni­ties but only one ex­is­ten­tial Trin­ity. A tri­unity is not an en­tity. It is func­tional rather than or­ganic. Its mem­bers are part­ners rather than cor­po­ra­tive. The com­po­nents of the tri­uni­ties may be en­ti­ties, but a tri­unity it­self is an as­so­ci­a­tion.

104:3.17There is, how­ever, one point of com­par­i­son be­tween trin­ity and tri­unity: Both even­tu­ate in func­tions that are some­thing other than the dis­cern­i­ble sum of the at­tri­butes of the com­po­nent mem­bers. But while they are thus com­pa­ra­ble from a func­tional stand­point, they oth­er­wise ex­hibit no cat­e­gor­i­cal re­la­tion­ship. They are roughly re­lated as the re­la­tion of func­tion to struc­ture. But the func­tion of the tri­unity as­so­ci­a­tion is not the func­tion of the trin­ity struc­ture or en­tity.

104:3.18The tri­uni­ties are nonethe­less real; they are very real. In them is to­tal re­al­ity func­tion­al­ized, and through them does the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther ex­er­cise im­me­di­ate and per­sonal con­trol over the mas­ter func­tions of in­fin­ity.

104:4.1In at­tempt­ing the de­scrip­tion of seven tri­uni­ties, at­ten­tion is di­rected to the fact that the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther is the pri­mal mem­ber of each. He is, was, and ever will be: the First Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther-Source, Ab­so­lute Cen­ter, Pri­mal Cause, Uni­ver­sal Con­trol­ler, Lim­it­less En­er­gizer, Orig­i­nal Unity, Un­qual­i­fied Up­holder, First Per­son of De­ity, Pri­mal Cos­mic Pat­tern, and Essence of In­fin­ity. The Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther is the per­sonal cause of the Ab­so­lutes; he is the ab­so­lute of Ab­so­lutes.

104:4.2The na­ture and mean­ing of the seven tri­uni­ties may be sug­gested as:

104:4.3The First Tri­unity—the per­sonal-pur­po­sive tri­unity. This is the group­ing of the three De­ity per­son­al­i­ties:

104:4.41. The Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther.

104:4.52. The Eter­nal Son.

104:4.63. The In­fi­nite Spirit.

104:4.7This is the three­fold union of love, mercy, and min­istry—the pur­po­sive and per­sonal as­so­ci­a­tion of the three eter­nal Par­a­dise per­son­al­i­ties. This is the di­vinely fra­ter­nal, crea­ture-lov­ing, fa­therly-act­ing, and as­cen­sion-pro­mot­ing as­so­ci­a­tion. The di­vine per­son­al­i­ties of this first tri­unity are per­son­al­ity-be­queath­ing, spirit-be­stow­ing, and mind-en­dow­ing Gods.

104:4.8This is the tri­unity of in­fi­nite vo­li­tion; it acts through­out the eter­nal pres­ent and in all of the past-pres­ent-fu­ture flow of time. This as­so­ci­a­tion yields vo­li­tional in­fin­ity and pro­vides the mech­a­nisms whereby per­sonal De­ity be­comes self-rev­e­la­tory to the crea­tures of the evolv­ing cos­mos.

104:4.9The Sec­ond Tri­unity—the power-pat­tern tri­unity. Whether it be a tiny ul­ti­ma­ton, a blaz­ing star, or a whirling neb­ula, even the cen­tral or super­uni­verses, from the small­est to the largest ma­te­rial or­ga­ni­za­tions, al­ways is the phys­i­cal pat­tern—the cos­mic con­fig­u­ra­tion—de­rived from the func­tion of this tri­unity. This as­so­ci­a­tion con­sists of:

104:4.101. The Fa­ther-Son.

104:4.112. The Par­a­dise Isle.

104:4.123. The Con­joint Ac­tor.

104:4.13En­ergy is or­ga­nized by the cos­mic agents of the Third Source and Cen­ter; en­ergy is fash­ioned af­ter the pat­tern of Par­a­dise, the ab­so­lute ma­te­ri­al­iza­tion; but be­hind all of this cease­less ma­nip­u­la­tion is the pres­ence of the Fa­ther-Son, whose union first ac­ti­vated the Par­a­dise pat­tern in the ap­pear­ance of Ha­vona con­comi­tant with the birth of the In­fi­nite Spirit, the Con­joint Ac­tor.

104:4.14In re­li­gious ex­pe­ri­ence, crea­tures make con­tact with the God who is love, but such spir­i­tual in­sight must never eclipse the in­tel­li­gent rec­og­ni­tion of the uni­verse fact of the pat­tern which is Par­a­dise. The Par­a­dise per­son­al­i­ties en­list the free­will ado­ra­tion of all crea­tures by the com­pelling power of di­vine love and lead all such spirit-born per­son­al­i­ties into the su­per­nal de­lights of the un­end­ing ser­vice of the fi­nal­i­ter sons of God. The sec­ond tri­unity is the ar­chi­tect of the space stage whereon these trans­ac­tions un­fold; it de­ter­mines the pat­terns of cos­mic con­fig­u­ra­tion.

104:4.15Love may char­ac­ter­ize the di­vin­ity of the first tri­unity, but pat­tern is the galac­tic man­i­fes­ta­tion of the sec­ond tri­unity. What the first tri­unity is to evolv­ing per­son­al­i­ties, the sec­ond tri­unity is to the evolv­ing uni­verses. Pat­tern and per­son­al­ity are two of the great man­i­fes­ta­tions of the acts of the First Source and Cen­ter; and no mat­ter how dif­fi­cult it may be to com­pre­hend, it is nonethe­less true that the power-pat­tern and the lov­ing per­son are one and the same uni­ver­sal re­al­ity; the Par­a­dise Isle and the Eter­nal Son are co-or­di­nate but an­tipo­dal rev­e­la­tions of the un­fath­omable na­ture of the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther-Force.

104:4.16The Third Tri­unity—the spirit-evo­lu­tional tri­unity. The en­tirety of spir­i­tual man­i­fes­ta­tion has its be­gin­ning and end in this as­so­ci­a­tion, con­sist­ing of:

104:4.171. The Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther.

104:4.182. The Son-Spirit.

104:4.193. The De­ity Ab­so­lute.

104:4.20From spirit po­tency to Par­a­dise spirit, all spirit finds re­al­ity ex­pres­sion in this tri­une as­so­ci­a­tion of the pure spirit essence of the Fa­ther, the ac­tive spirit val­ues of the Son-Spirit, and the un­lim­ited spirit po­ten­tials of the De­ity Ab­so­lute. The ex­is­ten­tial val­ues of spirit have their pri­mor­dial gen­e­sis, com­plete man­i­fes­ta­tion, and fi­nal des­tiny in this tri­unity.

104:4.21The Fa­ther ex­ists be­fore spirit; the Son-Spirit func­tions as ac­tive cre­ative spirit; the De­ity Ab­so­lute ex­ists as all-en­com­pass­ing spirit, even be­yond spirit.

104:4.22The Fourth Tri­unity—the tri­unity of en­ergy in­fin­ity. Within this tri­unity there eter­nal­izes the be­gin­nings and the end­ings of all en­ergy re­al­ity, from space po­tency to monota. This group­ing em­braces the fol­low­ing:

104:4.231. The Fa­ther-Spirit.

104:4.242. The Par­a­dise Isle.

104:4.253. The Un­qual­i­fied Ab­so­lute.

104:4.26Par­a­dise is the cen­ter of the force-en­ergy ac­ti­va­tion of the cos­mos—the uni­verse po­si­tion of the First Source and Cen­ter, the cos­mic fo­cal point of the Un­qual­i­fied Ab­so­lute, and the source of all en­ergy. Ex­is­ten­tially pres­ent within this tri­unity is the en­ergy po­ten­tial of the cos­mos-in­fi­nite, of which the grand uni­verse and the mas­ter uni­verse are only par­tial man­i­fes­ta­tions.

104:4.27The fourth tri­unity ab­so­lutely con­trols the fun­da­men­tal units of cos­mic en­ergy and re­leases them from the grasp of the Un­qual­i­fied Ab­so­lute in di­rect pro­por­tion to the ap­pear­ance in the ex­pe­ri­en­tial De­i­ties of sub­ab­so­lute ca­pac­ity to con­trol and sta­bi­lize the meta­mor­phos­ing cos­mos.

104:4.28This tri­unity is force and en­ergy. The end­less pos­si­bil­i­ties of the Un­qual­i­fied Ab­so­lute are cen­tered around the ab­so­lu­tum of the Isle of Par­a­dise, whence em­anate the unimag­in­able ag­i­ta­tions of the oth­er­wise static qui­es­cence of the Un­qual­i­fied. And the end­less throb­bing of the ma­te­rial Par­a­dise heart of the in­fi­nite cos­mos beats in har­mony with the un­fath­omable pat­tern and the un­search­able plan of the In­fi­nite En­er­gizer, the First Source and Cen­ter.

104:4.29The Fifth Tri­unity—the tri­unity of re­ac­tive in­fin­ity. This as­so­ci­a­tion con­sists of:

104:4.301. The Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther.

104:4.312. The Uni­ver­sal Ab­so­lute.

104:4.323. The Un­qual­i­fied Ab­so­lute.

104:4.33This group­ing yields the eter­nal­iza­tion of the func­tional in­fin­ity re­al­iza­tion of all that is ac­tu­al­iz­able within the do­mains of non­de­ity re­al­ity. This tri­unity man­i­fests un­lim­ited re­ac­tive ca­pac­ity to the vo­li­tional, causative, ten­sional, and pat­ter­nal ac­tions and pres­ences of the other tri­uni­ties.

104:4.34The Sixth Tri­unity—the tri­unity of cos­mic-as­so­ci­ated De­ity. This group­ing con­sists of:

104:4.351. The Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther.

104:4.362. The De­ity Ab­so­lute.

104:4.373. The Uni­ver­sal Ab­so­lute.

104:4.38This is the as­so­ci­a­tion of De­ity-in-the-cos­mos, the im­ma­nence of De­ity in con­junc­tion with the tran­scen­dence of De­ity. This is the last out­reach of di­vin­ity on the lev­els of in­fin­ity to­ward those re­al­i­ties which lie out­side the do­main of de­i­fied re­al­ity.

104:4.39The Sev­enth Tri­unity—the tri­unity of in­fi­nite unity. This is the unity of in­fin­ity func­tion­ally man­i­fest in time and eter­nity, the co-or­di­nate uni­fi­ca­tion of ac­tu­als and po­ten­tials. This group con­sists of:

104:4.401. The Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther.

104:4.412. The Con­joint Ac­tor.

104:4.423. The Uni­ver­sal Ab­so­lute.

104:4.43The Con­joint Ac­tor uni­ver­sally in­te­grates the vary­ing func­tional as­pects of all ac­tu­al­ized re­al­ity on all lev­els of man­i­fes­ta­tion, from finites through tran­scen­den­tals and on to ab­so­lutes. The Uni­ver­sal Ab­so­lute per­fectly com­pen­sates the dif­fer­en­tials in­her­ent in the vary­ing as­pects of all in­com­plete re­al­ity, from the lim­it­less po­ten­tial­i­ties of ac­tive-vo­li­tional and causative De­ity re­al­ity to the bound­less pos­si­bil­i­ties of static, re­ac­tive, non­de­ity re­al­ity in the in­com­pre­hen­si­ble do­mains of the Un­qual­i­fied Ab­so­lute.

104:4.44As they func­tion in this tri­unity, the Con­joint Ac­tor and the Uni­ver­sal Ab­so­lute are alike re­spon­sive to De­ity and to non­de­ity pres­ences, as also is the First Source and Cen­ter, who in this re­la­tion­ship is to all in­tents and pur­poses con­cep­tu­ally in­dis­tin­guish­able from the I AM.

104:4.45These ap­prox­i­ma­tions are suf­fi­cient to elu­ci­date the con­cept of the tri­uni­ties. Not know­ing the ul­ti­mate level of the tri­uni­ties, you can­not fully com­pre­hend the first seven. While we do not deem it wise to at­tempt any fur­ther elab­o­ra­tion, we may state that there are fif­teen tri­une as­so­ci­a­tions of the First Source and Cen­ter, eight of which are un­re­vealed in these pa­pers. These un­re­vealed as­so­ci­a­tions are con­cerned with re­al­i­ties, ac­tu­al­i­ties, and po­ten­tial­i­ties which are be­yond the ex­pe­ri­en­tial level of su­prem­acy.

104:4.46The tri­uni­ties are the func­tional bal­ance wheel of in­fin­ity, the uni­fi­ca­tion of the unique­ness of the Seven In­fin­ity Ab­so­lutes. It is the ex­is­ten­tial pres­ence of the tri­uni­ties that en­ables the Fa­ther-I AM to ex­pe­ri­ence func­tional in­fin­ity unity de­spite the di­ver­si­fi­ca­tion of in­fin­ity into seven Ab­so­lutes. The First Source and Cen­ter is the uni­fy­ing mem­ber of all tri­uni­ties; in him all things have their un­qual­i­fied be­gin­nings, eter­nal ex­is­tences, and in­fi­nite des­tinies—“in him all things con­sist.”

104:4.47Al­though these as­so­ci­a­tions can­not aug­ment the in­fin­ity of the Fa­ther-I AM, they do ap­pear to make pos­si­ble the subin­fi­nite and sub­ab­so­lute man­i­fes­ta­tions of his re­al­ity. The seven tri­uni­ties mul­ti­ply ver­sa­til­ity, eter­nal­ize new depths, deitize new val­ues, dis­close new po­ten­tial­i­ties, re­veal new mean­ings; and all these di­ver­si­fied man­i­fes­ta­tions in time and space and in the eter­nal cos­mos are ex­is­tent in the hy­po­thet­i­cal sta­sis of the orig­i­nal in­fin­ity of the I AM.

• Infinite functioning in non-Father capacities

104:2.6The con­cep­tual grasp of the Trin­ity as­so­ci­a­tion of Fa­ther, Son, and Spirit pre­pares the hu­man mind for the fur­ther pre­sen­ta­tion of cer­tain other three­fold re­la­tion­ships. The­o­log­i­cal rea­son may be fully sat­is­fied by the con­cept of the Par­a­dise Trin­ity, but phil­o­soph­i­cal and cos­mo­log­i­cal rea­son de­mand the rec­og­ni­tion of the other tri­une as­so­ci­a­tions of the First Source and Cen­ter, those tri­uni­ties in which the In­fi­nite func­tions in var­i­ous non-Fa­ther ca­pac­i­ties of uni­ver­sal man­i­fes­ta­tion—the re­la­tion­ships of the God of force, en­ergy, power, cau­sa­tion, re­ac­tion, po­ten­tial­ity, ac­tu­al­ity, grav­ity, ten­sion, pat­tern, prin­ci­ple, and unity.

• functional associations of 7 Absolutes of Infinity

105:4.63. Tri­unity re­la­tion­ships. These are the func­tional as­so­ci­a­tions of the Seven Ab­so­lutes of In­fin­ity.

105:4.7Tri­unity re­la­tion­ships arise upon du­al­ity foun­da­tions be­cause of the in­evitabil­ity of Ab­so­lute in­teras­so­ci­a­tion. Such tri­unity as­so­ci­a­tions eter­nal­ize the po­ten­tial of all re­al­ity; they en­com­pass both de­i­fied and un­de­i­fied re­al­ity.

105:4.8The I AM is un­qual­i­fied in­fin­ity as unity. The du­al­i­ties eter­nal­ize re­al­ity foun­da­tions. The tri­uni­ties even­tu­ate the re­al­iza­tion of in­fin­ity as uni­ver­sal func­tion.

105:4.9Pre-ex­is­ten­tials be­come ex­is­ten­tial in the seven Ab­so­lutes, and ex­is­ten­tials be­come func­tional in the tri­uni­ties, the ba­sic as­so­ci­a­tion of Ab­so­lutes. And con­comi­tant with the eter­nal­iza­tion of the tri­uni­ties the uni­verse stage is set—the po­ten­tials are ex­is­tent and the ac­tu­als are pres­ent—and the full­ness of eter­nity wit­nesses the di­ver­si­fi­ca­tion of cos­mic en­ergy, the out­spread­ing of Par­a­dise spirit, and the en­dow­ment of mind to­gether with the be­stowal of per­son­al­ity, by virtue of which all of these De­ity and Par­a­dise deriva­tives are uni­fied in ex­pe­ri­ence on the crea­ture level and by other tech­niques on the super­crea­ture level.

• functional balance wheel of infinity, unification of the 7 Absolutes

115:2.1From the ex­is­ten­tial stand­point, noth­ing new can hap­pen through­out the galax­ies, for the com­ple­tion of in­fin­ity in­her­ent in the I AM is eter­nally pres­ent in the seven Ab­so­lutes, is func­tion­ally as­so­ci­ated in the tri­uni­ties, and is trans­mi­tively as­so­ci­ated in the tri­odi­ties. But the fact that in­fin­ity is thus ex­is­ten­tially pres­ent in these ab­so­lute as­so­ci­a­tions in no way makes it im­pos­si­ble to re­al­ize new cos­mic ex­pe­ri­en­tials. From a fi­nite crea­ture’s view­point, in­fin­ity con­tains much that is po­ten­tial, much that is on the or­der of a fu­ture pos­si­bil­ity rather than a pres­ent ac­tu­al­ity.

16:1.2While the Seven Mas­ter Spir­its are hardly ex­pres­sive of three­fold De­ity, they are the eter­nal por­trayal of sev­en­fold De­ity, the ac­tive and as­so­cia­tive func­tions of the three ever-ex­is­tent per­sons of De­ity. By and in and through these Seven Spir­its, the Uni­ver­sal Fa­ther, the Eter­nal Son, or the In­fi­nite Spirit, or any dual as­so­ci­a­tion, is able to func­tion as such. When the Fa­ther, the Son, and the Spirit act to­gether, they can and do func­tion through Mas­ter Spirit Num­ber Seven, but not as the Trin­ity. The Mas­ter Spir­its singly and col­lec­tively rep­re­sent any and all pos­si­ble De­ity func­tions, sin­gle and sev­eral, but not col­lec­tive, not the Trin­ity. Mas­ter Spirit Num­ber Seven is per­son­ally non­func­tional with re­gard to the Par­a­dise Trin­ity, and that is just why he can func­tion per­son­ally for the Su­preme Be­ing.

11:5.43. Oc­cu­py­ing the outer mar­gins of the un­der sur­face is a re­gion hav­ing mainly to do with space po­tency and force-en­ergy. The ac­tiv­i­ties of this vast el­lip­ti­cal force cen­ter are not iden­ti­fi­able with the known func­tions of any tri­unity, but the pri­mor­dial force-charge of space ap­pears to be fo­cal­ized in this area. This cen­ter con­sists of three con­cen­tric el­lip­ti­cal zones: The in­ner­most is the fo­cal point of the force-en­ergy ac­tiv­i­ties of Par­a­dise it­self; the out­er­most may pos­si­bly be iden­ti­fied with the func­tions of the Un­qual­i­fied Ab­so­lute, but we are not cer­tain con­cern­ing the space func­tions of the mid-zone.
