15:8.1 The headquarters spheres of the superuniverses are so constructed that they are able to [[function]] as efficient [[power]]-[[energy]] regulators for their various sectors, serving as [[focal points]] for the directionization of energy to their component [[local universes]]. They exert a powerful [[influence]] over the [[balance]] and [[control]] of the [[physical]] energies circulating through organized [[space]].

15:8.2 Further regulative functions are [[performed]] by the superuniverse [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#29:2._THE_SUPREME_POWER_CENTERS power centers] and [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#29:4._THE_MASTER_PHYSICAL_CONTROLLERS physical controllers], living and semiliving [[intelligent]] [[entities]] constituted for this express [[purpose]]. These power centers and controllers are difficult of [[understanding]]; the lower orders are not [[volitional]], they do not possess will, they do not choose, their functions are very intelligent but apparently [[automatic]] and [[inherent]] in their highly specialized organization. The power centers and physical controllers of the superuniverses assume direction and partial control of the thirty energy systems which comprise the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_11#11:8._PARADISE_GRAVITY gravita domain]. The physical-energy [[circuits]] [[administered]] by the power centers of [[Uversa]] require a little over 968 million years to complete the [[Circulation|encirclement]] of the superuniverse.

15:8.3 Evolving energy has substance; it has [[weight]], although weight is always [[relative]], depending on [[revolutionary]] [[velocity]], [[mass]], and [[antigravity]]. Mass in matter tends to retard velocity in [[energy]]; and the anywhere-present velocity of energy represents: the initial endowment of velocity, minus retardation by mass encountered in transit, plus the regulatory [[function]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#29:4._THE_MASTER_PHYSICAL_CONTROLLERS living energy controllers] of the superuniverse and the [[physical]] [[influence]] of near-by highly heated or heavily charged bodies.

15:8.4 The [[universal]] plan for the [[maintenance]] of [[equilibrium]] between [[matter]] and [[energy]] [[necessitates]] the [[Eternal|everlasting]] making and unmaking of the lesser [[material]] [[units]]. The [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#PAPER_29:_THE_UNIVERSE_POWER_DIRECTORS Universe Power Directors] have the ability to condense and detain, or to expand and [[liberate]], varying [[quantities]] of energy.

15:8.5 Given a sufficient duration of retarding [[influence]], [[gravity]] would [[eventually]] [[convert]] all [[energy]] into [[matter]] were it not for two factors: First, because of the [[antigravity]] influences of the energy controllers, and second, because [[organized]] matter tends to disintegrate under certain conditions found in very hot stars and under certain peculiar conditions in [[space]] near highly energized cold bodies of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensed_matter condensed matter].

15:8.6 When mass becomes overaggregated and threatens to unbalance energy, to deplete the [[physical]] [[power]] [[circuits]], the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#29:4._THE_MASTER_PHYSICAL_CONTROLLERS physical controllers] [[intervene]] unless [[gravity]]'s own further tendency to overmaterialize energy is defeated by the occurrence of a collision among the dead giants of space[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_giants], thus in an instant completely dissipating the cumulative collections of [[gravity]]. In these collisional [[episodes]] enormous masses of matter are suddenly converted into the rarest form of [[energy]], and the struggle for [[universal]] [[equilibrium]] is begun anew. Eventually the larger physical systems become stabilized, become physically settled, and are swung into the [[balanced]] and established [[circuits]] of the [[superuniverses]]. Subsequent to this event no more collisions or other devastating [[catastrophes]] will occur in such established systems.

15:8.7 During the times of plus energy there are power [[Turbulence|disturbances]] and [[heat]] fluctuations accompanied by electrical [[manifestations]]. During times of minus energy there are increased tendencies for matter to aggregate, condense, and to get out of [[control]] in the more delicately balanced circuits, with resultant tidal or collisional adjustments which quickly restore the balance between [[circulating]] [[energy]] and more [[literally]] [[stabilized]] [[matter]]. To [[Prediction|forecast]] and otherwise to [[understand]] such likely [[behavior]] of the blazing suns and the dark islands of space is one of the tasks of the [[celestial]] [[star]] [[observers]].

15:8.8 We are able to recognize most of the [[laws]] [[governing]] universe [[equilibrium]] and to predict much pertaining to universe stability. [[Practically]], our forecasts are reliable, but we are always confronted by certain [[forces]] which are not wholly amenable to the laws of [[energy]] [[control]] and [[matter]] [[behavior]] known to us. The [[predictability]] of all [[physical]] [[phenomena]] becomes increasingly difficult as we proceed outward in the [[Universe of Universes|universes]] from [[Paradise]]. As we pass beyond the borders of the [[personal]] [[administration]] of the [[Paradise Sons|Paradise Rulers]], we are confronted with increasing inability to reckon in accordance with the standards established and the [[experience]] acquired in [[connection]] with [[observations]] having exclusively to do with the physical phenomena of the near-by [[astronomic]] [[systems]]. Even in the realms of the seven superuniverses we are living in the midst of force [[actions]] and energy [[reactions]] which pervade all our domains and extend in unified equilibrium on through all regions of [[outer space]].

15:8.9 The farther out we go, the more certainly we encounter those variational and [[Random|unpredictable]] [[phenomena]] which are so unerringly characteristic of the [[Mystery|unfathomable]] [[presence]]-[[performances]] of [[the Absolutes]] and the experiential Deities. And these phenomena must be indicative of some [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_118#118:8._CONTROL_AND_OVERCONTROL universal overcontrol] of all [[Everything|things]].

15:8.10 The [[superuniverse]] of [[Orvonton]] is apparently now running down; the [[Outer Space|outer universes]] seem to be winding up for unparalleled future activities; the central [[Havona]] universe is eternally stabilized. [[Gravity]] and [[absence]] of [[heat]] (cold) organize and hold [[matter]] together; heat and [[antigravity]] disrupt matter and dissipate energy.
