112:6.2 It is [[difficult]] to instruct you regarding your [[morontia]] [[personality]] forms for the [[local universe]] career. You will be [[endowed]] with [[morontia]] [[patterns]] of [[personality]] manifestability, and these are investments which, in the last [[analysis]], are beyond your [[comprehension]]. Such [[forms]], while entirely real, are not [[energy]] patterns of the [[material]] order which you now [[understand]]. They do, however, serve the same [[purpose]] on the [[local universe]] worlds as do your [[material]] [[bodies]] on the [[planets]] of human [[nativity]].

112:6.3 To a certain extent, the [[appearance]] of the material [[body]]-[[form]] is responsive to the [[character]] of the [[personality]] [[identity]]; the physical body does, to a limited [[degree]], [[reflect]] something of the [[inherent]] [[nature]] of the [[personality]]. Still more so does the [[morontia]] form. In the [[physical]] life, mortals may be outwardly [[beautiful]] though inwardly [[Grotesque|unlovely]]; in the [[morontia]] life, and increasingly on its higher levels, the [[personality]] form will vary directly in [[accordance]] with the [[nature]] of the inner person. On the [[spiritual]] level, outward [[form]] and inner [[nature]] begin to approximate complete [[identification]], which grows more and more [[perfect]] on higher and higher [[spirit]] [[levels]].
