11:1.3 We all know the direct course to pursue to find the Universal Father. You are not able to [[comprehend]] much about the divine [[Home|residence]] because of its remoteness from you and the immensity of the intervening [[space]], but those who are able to comprehend the [[meaning]] of these enormous distances know God's location and residence just as certainly and literally as you know the location of [[New York City|New York]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London London], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rome Rome], or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singapore Singapore], cities definitely and geographically located on [[Urantia]]. If you were an intelligent [[navigator]], equipped with ship, maps, and [[compass]], you could readily find these cities. Likewise, if you had the [[time]] and means of passage, were spiritually qualified, and had the necessary [[guidance]], you could be piloted through [[Ascension Career|universe upon universe]] and from [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_34#34:4._THE_LOCAL_UNIVERSE_CIRCUITS circuit] to [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_7#7:1._THE_SPIRIT-GRAVITY_CIRCUIT circuit], ever [[journeying]] inward through the starry realms, until at last you would stand before the central shining of the spiritual [[glory]] of the Universal Father. Provided with all the [[necessities]] for the journey, it is just as possible to find the [[personal]] [[presence]] of [[God]] at the [[center]] of [[all things]] as to find distant cities on your own [[planet]]. That you have not visited these places in no way disproves their [[reality]] or actual [[existence]]. That so few of the universe creatures have found God on Paradise in no way disproves either the reality of his existence or the [[actuality]] of his spiritual person at the center of all things.

11:3.4 Each of the seven sectors of Paradise is subdivided into residential units suitable for the lodgment headquarters of one billion [[glorified]] [[individual]] working [[groups]]. One thousand of these units constitute a division. One hundred thousand divisions equal one congregation. Ten million congregations constitute an assembly. One billion assemblies make one grand unit. And this ascending series continues through the second grand unit, the third, and so on to the seventh grand unit. And seven of the grand units make up the master units, and seven of the master units constitute a superior unit; and thus by sevens the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithm ascending series] expands through the superior, supersuperior, celestial, supercelestial, to the supreme units. But even this does not utilize all the space available. This staggering number of residential designations on Paradise, a number beyond your [[concept]], occupies considerably less than one per cent of the assigned area of the Holy Land. There is still plenty of room for those who are on their way inward, even for those who shall not start the [[Ascension Career|Paradise climb]] until the times of the [[eternal]] [[future]].

11:8.8 Space potency is not subject to the interactions of any form of gravitation. This primal endowment of Paradise is not an [[actual]] level of [[reality]], but it is [[ancestral]] to all [[relative]] [[function]]al nonspirit realities—all [[manifestations]] of force-energy and the organization of [[power]] and [[matter]]. Space potency is a term difficult to define. It does not mean that which is ancestral to space; its [[meaning]] should convey the idea of the potencies and [[potentials]] existent within space. It may be roughly conceived to include all those [[absolute]] [[influences]] and potentials which emanate from Paradise and constitute the space [[presence]] of the [[Unqualified Absolute]].

11:8.9 Paradise is the [[absolute]] [[source]] and the [[eternal]] [[Focus|focal]] point of all energy-matter in the [[universe of universes]]. The Unqualified Absolute is the revealer, regulator, and repository of that which has Paradise as its [[source]] and [[origin]]. The universal presence of the Unqualified Absolute seems to be [[equivalent]] to the concept of a [[potential]] [[infinity]] of gravity extension, an elastic [[tension]] of Paradise presence. This [[concept]] aids us in grasping the [[fact]] that [[everything]] is drawn inward towards Paradise. The [[illustration]] is crude but nonetheless helpful. It also explains why gravity always acts preferentially in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_%28geometry%29 plane] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perpendicular perpendicular] to the [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Mass mass], a [[phenomenon]] indicative of the differential [[dimensions]] of Paradise and the surrounding [[creations]].

11:9.4 When [[reality]] is differentiated into the personal and the nonpersonal ([[Eternal Son]] and Paradise), it is hardly proper to call that which is nonpersonal "[[Deity]]" unless somehow qualified. The energy and material repercussions of the acts of Deity could hardly be called Deity. Deity may cause much that is not Deity, and Paradise is not Deity; neither is it [[conscious]] as mortal man could ever possibly [[understand]] such a term.
