[[Personality]] is a level of deified [[reality]] and ranges from the [[mortal]] and [[midwayer]] level of the higher mind activation of [[worship]] and [[wisdom]] up through the [[morontial]] and [[spiritual]] to the attainment of [[finality]] of personality [[status]]. That is the [[evolution]]ary [[Ascension|ascent]] of [[mortal]]- and kindred-[[creature]] [[personality]], but there are numerous other orders of universe personalities.

[[Reality]] is subject to [[universal]] [[Integration|expansion]], personality to infinite [[Diversity|diversification]], and both are capable of well-nigh unlimited Deity co-ordination and eternal [[Balance|stabilization]]. While the [[Metamorphosis|metamorphic]] range of nonpersonal reality is definitely limited, we know of no limitations to the [[progressive]] [[evolution]] of personality realities.

On attained [[Experience|experiential]] levels all personality orders or values are associable and even [Co-creation|cocreational]]. Even [[God]] and [[Human|man]] can coexist in a [[Unity|unified]] personality, as is so exquisitely [[Demonstration|demonstrated]] in the present [[status]] of Christ [[Michael]]—Son of Man and Son of God.

All subinfinite orders and phases of personality are [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associativity associative] attainables and are [[potential]]ly cocreational. The prepersonal, the personal, and the superpersonal are all linked together by mutual potential of co-ordinate attainment, progressive achievement, and cocreational capacity. But never does the impersonal directly transmute to the personal. Personality is never [[spontaneous]]; it is the gift of the [[Universal Father|Paradise Father]]. Personality is superimposed upon [[energy]], and it is associated only with living [[energy]] [[system]]s; [[identity]] can be associated with nonliving energy [[pattern]]s.

The [[Universal Father]] is the secret of the reality of personality, the bestowal of personality, and the [[destiny]] of personality. The [[Eternal Son]] is the absolute personality, the secret of [[spiritual]] [[energy]], [[morontia]] spirits, and [[perfect]]ed [[spirit]]s. The [[Conjoint Actor]] is the spirit-mind personality, the source of [[intelligence]], [[reason]], and the [[universal]] [[mind]]. But the [[Isle of Paradise]] is nonpersonal and extraspiritual, being the [[essence]] of the [[universal]] [[body]], the source and center of [[physical]] [[matter]], and the absolute master [[pattern]] of universal [[material]] reality.

[[Mind]]. The [[thinking]], perceiving, and [[feeling]] [[mechanism]] of the human [[organism]]. The total [[conscious]] and unconscious experience. The intelligence associated with the [[emotion]]al life reaching upward through [[worship]] and [[wisdom]] to the spirit level.

[[Spirit]]. The divine spirit that indwells the mind of man—the [[Thought Adjuster]]. This immortal spirit is prepersonal—not a personality, though destined to become a part of the personality of the surviving [[mortal]] [[creature]].

[[Soul]]. The soul of man is an experiential acquirement. As a mortal creature chooses to "[[do the will of the Father in heaven]]," so the indwelling spirit becomes the [[father]] of a new reality in human experience. The [[mortal]] and [[material]] [[mind]] is the [[mother]] of this same emerging reality. The substance of this new reality is neither material nor spiritual—it is [[Morontia|morontial]]. This is the emerging and immortal soul which is destined to survive mortal [[death]] and begin the Paradise [[ascension]].

[[Personality]]. The personality of [[mortal]] man is neither body, mind, nor spirit; neither is it the soul. Personality is the one changeless reality in an otherwise [[Change|ever-changing]] [[creature]] [[experience]]; and it unifies all other associated factors of [[individual]]ity. The personality is the [[unique]] bestowal which the [[Universal Father]] makes upon the living and associated energies of matter, mind, and spirit, and which survives with the survival of the morontial soul.

[[Morontia]] is a term designating a vast level intervening between the [[material]] and the [[spiritual]]. It may designate personal or impersonal realities, living or nonliving energies. The warp of morontia is spiritual; its woof is physical.
