==25:1. THE HAVONA SERVITALS==

Line 19: Line 19:

25:1.1 Though denominated servitals, these "midway creatures" of the [[central universe]] are not servants in any menial sense of the [[word]]. In the [[spiritual]] world there is no such [[thing]] as menial [[work]]; all [[service]] is [[sacred]] and exhilarating; neither do the higher orders of beings look down upon the lower orders of [[existence]].

25:1.2 The Havona Servitals are the joint [[creative]] work of the [[Seven Master Spirits]] and their [[associates]], the [~~http~~://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#29:1._THE_SEVEN_SUPREME_POWER_DIRECTORS Seven Supreme Power Directors]. This [[creative]] [[collaboration]] comes the nearest to being the [[pattern]] for the long list of reproductions of the dual order in the [[evolutionary]] [[universes]], extending from the [[creation]] of a [[Bright and Morning Star]] by a [[Creator Son]]-[[Creative Spirit]] [[liaison]] down to [[sex]] procreation on worlds like [[Urantia]].

25:1.3 The [[number]] of servitals is prodigious, and more are being created all the time. They appear in [[groups]] of one thousand on the third [[moment]] following the assembly of the [[Master Spirits]] and the [~~http~~://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#29:1._THE_SEVEN_SUPREME_POWER_DIRECTORS Supreme Power Directors] at their joint area in the [~~http~~://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_11#11:3._UPPER_PARADISE far northerly sector] of [[Paradise]]. Every fourth servital is more [[physical]] in type than the others; that is, out of each thousand, seven hundred and fifty are apparently true to [[spirit]] [[type]], but two hundred and fifty are semiphysical in [[nature]]. These fourth creatures are somewhat on the order of [[material]] [[beings]] (material in the [[Havona]] sense), resembling the [[physical]] [~~http~~://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#PAPER_29:_THE_UNIVERSE_POWER_DIRECTORS power directors] more than the [[Master Spirits]].

25:1.4 In [[personality]] [[relationships]] the [[spiritual]] is dominant over the [[material]], even though it does not now so appear on [[Urantia]]; and in the production of Havona Servitals the [[law]] of [[spirit]] dominance prevails; the established [[ratio]] yields three [[spiritual]] [[beings]] to one semiphysical.

There is [[divine]] [[pathos]] in the separation of the servitals from the guides, as so often occurs when the servitals are dispatched on missions beyond the limits of the [[central universe]]; but they go with [[joy]] and not with [[sorrow]]. The satisfying [[joy]] of high [[duty]] is the [[eclipsing]] [[emotion]] of [[spiritual]] [[beings]]. [[Sorrow]] cannot exist in the face of the [[consciousness]] of [[divine]] [[duty]] [[faithfully]] [[performed]]. And when man's [[ascending]] [[soul]] stands before the Supreme [[Judge]], the [[decision]] of [[eternal]] import will not be determined by [[material]] successes or [[quantitative]] achievements; the [[verdict]] reverberating through the high [[courts]] declares: "Well done, [[good]] and [[faithful]] servant; you have been faithful over a few [[essentials]]; you shall be made ruler over [[universe]] [[realities]]."[~~http~~://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_Luke#Chapter_19][~~http~~://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_Matthew#Chapter_25]

25:1.7 On [[superuniverse]] [[service]] the Havona Servitals are always assigned to that domain presided over by the [[Master Spirit]] whom they most resemble in general and special [[spirit]] [[Temperament|prerogatives]]. They serve only on the [[educational]] worlds surrounding the capitals of the [[seven superuniverses]], and the last report of [[Uversa]] indicates that almost 138 billion servitals were ministering on its 490 [[satellites]].

25:2.1 For every [~~http~~://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_25#25:1._THE_HAVONA_SERVITALS Havona Servital] [[created]], seven Universal Conciliators are brought into [[being]], one in each [[superuniverse]].

25:2.2 On the headquarters worlds of the [[seven superuniverses]] there [[function]] the [~~http~~://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_17#17:3._THE_REFLECTIVE_SPIRITS seven reflections] of the [[Seven Master Spirits]]. It is [[difficult]] to undertake to portray the [[natures]] of these [~~http~~://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_17#17:3._THE_REFLECTIVE_SPIRITS Reflective Spirits] to [[material]] [[minds]]. They are true [[personalities]]; still each member of a [[superuniverse]] [[group]] is [[perfectly]] [[reflective]] of just one of the [[Seven Master Spirits]]. And every time the [[Master Spirits]] [[associate]] themselves with the [~~http~~://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_29#29:1._THE_SEVEN_SUPREME_POWER_DIRECTORS power directors] for the [[purpose]] of creating a [[group]] of [~~http~~://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_25#25:1._THE_HAVONA_SERVITALS Havona Servitals], there is a [[simultaneous]] [[focalization]] upon one of the [~~http~~://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_17#17:3._THE_REFLECTIVE_SPIRITS Reflective Spirits] in each of the [[superuniverse]] [[groups]], and forthwith and full-fledgedly an [[equal]] number of ''Universal Conciliators'' appear on the headquarters worlds of the supercreations. If, in the [[creation]] of servitals, Master Spirit Number Seven should take the initiative, none but the Reflective Spirits of the seventh order would become pregnant with conciliators; and concurrently with the creation of one thousand Orvontonlike servitals, one thousand of the seventh-order conciliators would appear on each [[superuniverse]] capital. Out of these episodes, [[reflecting]] the sevenfold [[nature]] of the Master Spirits, arise the seven created orders of conciliators serving in each [[superuniverse]].

Out of these episodes, [[reflecting]] the sevenfold [[nature]] of the Master Spirits, arise the seven created orders of conciliators serving in each [[superuniverse]].

25:2.3 Conciliators of pre-[[Paradise]] [[status]] do not serve interchangeably between [[superuniverses]], being restricted to their native segments of [[creation]]. Every [[superuniverse]] corps, embracing one seventh of each created order, therefore spends a very long time under the [[influence]] of one of the [[Master Spirits]] to the exclusion of the others, for, while all seven are [[reflected]] on the superuniverse capitals, only one is dominant in each supercreation.

25:2.4 Each of the [[Seven Superuniverses|seven supercreations]] is actually pervaded by that one of the [[Master Spirits]] who presides over its [[destinies]]. Each [[superuniverse]] thus becomes like a gigantic [[mirror]] [[reflecting]] the [[nature]] and [[character]] of the supervising Master Spirit, and all of this is further continued in every subsidiary [[local universe]] by the [[presence]] and [[function]] of the [~~http~~://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_17#17:6._THE_LOCAL_UNIVERSE_CREATIVE_SPIRITS Creative Mother Spirits]. The [[effect]] of such an [[environment]] upon [[evolutionary]] [[growth]] is so [[profound]] that in their postsuperuniverse [[careers]] the conciliators [[collectively]] manifest forty-nine [[experiential]] [[viewpoints]], or [[insights]], each [[angular]]—hence incomplete—but all [[mutually]] [[compensatory]] and [[together]] tending to [[encompass]] the [[circle]] of [[Supremacy]].

25:2.5 In each [[superuniverse]] the Universal Conciliators find themselves strangely and [[innately]] segregated into groups of four, [[associations]] in which they continue to serve. In each [[group]], three are [[spirit]] [[personalities]], and one, like the fourth creatures of the servitals, is a semi[[material]] [[being]]. This quartet [[constitutes]] a conciliating commission and is made up as follows:

Line 60: Line 60:

25:3.2 The order of conciliators is wholly [[dependable]]; not one has ever gone astray. Though not [[infallible]] in [[wisdom]] and [[judgment]], they are of unquestioned [[reliability]] and unerring in [[faithfulness]]. They take [[origin]] on the headquarters of a [[superuniverse]] and eventually return thereto, advancing through the following levels of [[universe]] [[service]]:

25:3.3 1. ''Conciliators to the Worlds''. Whenever the supervising [[personalities]] of the [~~http~~://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_49 individual worlds] become greatly perplexed or actually deadlocked concerning the proper [[procedure]] under existing circumstances, and if the matter is not of sufficient importance to be brought before the regularly constituted [[tribunals]] of the realm, then, upon the receipt of a [[petition]] of two [[personalities]], one from each [[contention]], a conciliating commission will begin to [[function]] forthwith.

25:3.4 When these [[administrative]] and [[jurisdictional]] [[difficulties]] have been placed in the hands of the conciliators for [[study]] and [[adjudication]], they are [[supreme]] in [[authority]]. But they will not [[formulate]] a [[decision]] until all the [[evidence]] has been heard, and there is [[absolutely]] no limit to their [[authority]] to call witnesses from anywhere and everywhere. And while their [[decisions]] may not be appealed, sometimes matters so develop that the commission closes its records at a given point, concludes its [[opinions]], and transfers the whole question to the higher [[tribunals]] of the realm.

−

25:3.5 The commissioners' decisions are placed on the [[planetary]] [[records]] and, if [[necessary]], are put into [[effect]] by the [[divine]] [[executioner]]. His [[power]] is very great, and the range of his [[activities]] on an [~~http~~://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_49 inhabited world]] is very wide.

Their [[work]] is sometimes carried out for the apparent [[welfare]] of the realm, and sometimes their [[acts]] on the worlds of [[time and space]] are [[difficult]] of explanation. Though executing [[decrees]] in defiance of neither [[natural law]] nor the [[ordained]] usages of the realm, they do ofttimes effect their [[strange]] doings and enforce the [[mandates]] of the conciliators in accordance with the higher laws of [[the system]] [[administration]].

Their [[work]] is sometimes carried out for the apparent [[welfare]] of the realm, and sometimes their [[acts]] on the worlds of [[time and space]] are [[difficult]] of explanation. Though executing [[decrees]] in defiance of neither [[natural law]] nor the [[ordained]] usages of the realm, they do ofttimes effect their [[strange]] doings and enforce the [[mandates]] of the conciliators in accordance with the higher laws of [[the system]] [[administration]].

Here they have much [[work]] to do, and they [[prove]] to be the [[understanding]] [[friends]] of men, [[angels]], and other [[spirit]] [[beings]].

25:3.7 The [[moment]] the [[Creators]] bring into [[existence]] [[evolving]] [[individuals]] with the [[power]] of [[choice]], that [[moment]] a departure is made from the smooth working of [[divine]] [[perfection]]; misunderstandings are certain to arise, and provision for the fair [[adjustment]] of these [[honest]] [[differences]] of [[viewpoint]] must be made. We should all [[remember]] that the [[Omniscient|all-wise]] and [[Omnipotent|all-powerful]] Creators could have made the [[local universes]] just as [[perfect]] as [[Havona]]. No conciliating commissions need [[function]] in the [[central universe]]. But the [[Creators]] did not [[choose]] in their all-[[wisdom]] to do this. And while they have produced [[universes]] which abound in [[differences]] and teem with [[difficulties]], they have likewise provided the [[mechanisms]] and the means for [[composing]] all these [[differences]] and for [[harmonizing]] all this seeming [[confusion]].

If the [[contention]] is [[honest]], if the [[difficulties]] arise out of [[sincere]] differences of [[opinion]] and honest [[diversity]] of [[viewpoints]], no matter how few [[persons]] may be involved, no matter how apparently trivial the misunderstanding, a conciliating commission can always be had to pass upon the [[merits]] of the [[controversy]].

25:3.10 It is almost impossible to explain the nature of those [[differences]] which may arise in the detailed affairs of a [[the System|system]], a [[constellation]], or a [[universe]].

25:3.12 6. ''Conciliators to the Superuniverse Major Sectors''. The [[character]] of the [[work]] of the commissioners continues to [[change]] as they advance. There is less and less of [[Confusion|misunderstanding]] to [[adjudicate]] and more and more of [[mysterious]] [[phenomena]] to explain and [[interpret]]. From stage to [[stage]] they are evolving from [[arbiters]] of [[differences]] to explainers of [[mysteries]] —[[judges]] evolving into [[interpretative]] [[teachers]]. Arbiters of those who through ignorance permit [[difficulties]] and misunderstandings to arise, they once were; but they are now becoming instructors of those who are sufficiently [[intelligent]] and [[tolerant]] to avoid clashes of [[mind]] and [[wars]] of [[opinions]]. The higher a creature's [[education]], the more [[respect]] he has for the [[knowledge]], [[experience]], and [[opinions]] of others.

25:4.4 Technical Advisers frequently [[function]] as [[individuals]] but are organized for [[service]] and [[maintain]] common [[headquarters]] on the [[spheres]] of assignment in [[groups]] of [~~http~~://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven seven].

25:4.5 Those [[mortals]] and [[midwayers]] who serve transiently with the advisers are chosen for such [[work]] because of their expertness in the [[concept]] of [[universal]] [[law]] and [[supreme]] [[justice]]. As you [[journey]] toward your [[Paradise]] goal, constantly acquiring added [[knowledge]] and enhanced [[skill]], you are continuously afforded the [[opportunity]] to give out to others the [[wisdom]] and [[experience]] you have already accumulated; all the way in to [[Havona]] you enact the role of a [[pupil]]-[[teacher]]. You will [[work]] your way through the [[ascending]] levels of this vast [[experiential]] [[university]] by imparting to those just below you the new-found [[knowledge]] of your advancing [[career]]. In the [[universal]] [[regime]] you are not reckoned as having [[possessed]] yourself of [[knowledge]] and [[truth]] until you have [[demonstrated]] your [[ability]] and your willingness to [[Share|impart]] this [[knowledge]] and [[truth]] to others.

25:4.6 After long [[training]] and [[actual]] [[experience]], any of the [[ministering spirits]] above the [[status]] of [[cherubim]] are permitted to receive permanent appointment as Technical Advisers.

25:4.8 These advisers are more than [[legal]] [[experts]]; they are students and [[teachers]] of applied law, the [[laws]] of the [[universe]] applied to the lives and [[destinies]] of all who inhabit the vast domains of the [[Grand Universe| far-flung creation]]. As [[time]] passes, they become the living law [[libraries]] of [[time and space]], preventing endless trouble and needless delays by instructing the [[personalities]] of time regarding the [[forms]] and modes of [[procedure]] most acceptable to the rulers of [[eternity]]. They are able so to [[counsel]] the workers of [[space]] as to enable them to [[function]] in [[harmony]] with the requirements of [[Paradise]]; they are the [[teachers]] of all [[creatures]] concerning the [[technique]] of the [[Creators]].

Line 120: Line 120:

25:4.10 Technical Advisers are [[dedicated]] to the [[work]] of preventing delay, facilitating [[progress]], and [[counseling]] [[achievement]]. There is always a best and right way to do [[things]]; there is always the [[technique]] of [[perfection]], a [[divine]] [[method]], and these advisers know how to direct us all in the finding of this better way.

25:4.11 These exceedingly [[wise]] and [[practical]] [[beings]] are always closely [[associated]] with the [[service]] and [[work]] of the [[Universal Censors]].

There is no known [[limit]] to the domain of their [[service]], neither has any been placed upon their [[progress]].

==25:6. THE CELESTIAL RECORDERS==

−

25:6.1 These are the recorders who [[execute]] all [[records]] in duplicate, making an [[original]] [[spirit]] recording and a semi[[material]] counterpart—what might be called a [~~http~~://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_copy carbon copy]. This they can do because of their peculiar [[ability]] [[simultaneously]] to [[manipulate]] both [[spiritual]] and [[material]] [[energy]]. Celestial Recorders are not created as such; they are [[ascendant]] [[seraphim]] from the [[local universes]]. They are received, classified, and assigned to their [[spheres]] of [[work]] by the councils of the Chiefs of Records on the headquarters of the [[seven superuniverses]]. There also are located the schools for [[training]] Celestial Recorders. The school on [[Uversa]] is conducted by the [[Perfectors of Wisdom]] and the [[Divine Counselors]].

25:6.2 As the recorders advance in [[universe]] [[service]], they continue their [[system]] of dual recording, thus making their records always available to all [[Types|classes]] of [[beings]], from those of the [[material]] order to the high [[spirits]] of [[light]]. In your transition [[experience]], as you [[ascend]] from this [[material]] world, you will always be able to consult the [[records]] of, and to be otherwise conversant with, the [[history]] and [[traditions]] of your [[status]] [[sphere]].

Line 146: Line 146:

25:6.4 While the advancing recorders stationed on the subordinate [[spheres]] of record in the [[Orvonton]] [[universes]] number trillions upon trillions, those of [[attained]] [[status]] on [[Uversa]] are not quite eight million in [[number]]. These senior or [[graduate]] recorders are the [[superuniverse]] custodians and forwarders of the sponsored records of [[time and space]]. Their permanent [[headquarters]] are in the [[circular]] abodes surrounding the area of records on [[Uversa]]. They never leave the custody of these records to others; as [[individuals]] they may be absent, but never in large numbers.

25:6.6 On [[Uversa]] these senior Celestial Recorders can show the [[records]] of [[everything]] of [[cosmic]] import in all [[Orvonton]] since the far-distant times of the arrival of the [[Ancients of Days]], while on the [[eternal Isle]] the Custodians of Records guard the [[archives]] of that realm which testify to the [[transactions]] of [[Paradise]] since the times of the [[personification]] of the [[Infinite Spirit]].

25:7.2 Though you will have [[earnest]] and [[progressively]] [[difficult]] tasks to [[perform]] on the [[Mansion Worlds|morontia training worlds]] of [[Nebadon]], you will always be provided with regular seasons of rest and reversion. Throughout the [[journey]] to [[Paradise]] there will always be [[time]] for rest and [[spirit]] [[play]]; and in the [[career]] of [[light and life]] there is always time for [[worship]] and new [[achievement]].

25:7.3 These ''Morontia Companions'' are such [[friendly]] [[associates]] that, when you finally leave the last [[phase]] of the [[morontia]] [[experience]], as you [[prepare]] to embark upon the [[superuniverse]] [[spirit]] [[adventure]], you will truly regret that these companionable [[creatures]] cannot accompany you, but they serve exclusively in the [[local universes]]. At every [[stage]] of the [[ascending career]] all contactable [[personalities]] will be friendly and companionable, but not until you meet the Paradise Companions will you find another [[group]] so [[devoted]] to [[friendship]] and companionship.

25:8.1 The Paradise Companions are a composite or assembled group recruited from the ranks of the seraphim, seconaphim, supernaphim, and omniaphim. Though serving for what you would regard as an extraordinary length of time, they are not of permanent status. When this ministry has been completed, as a rule (but not invariably) they return to those duties they performed when summoned to Paradise service.

25:8.3 These selected angels are dedicated to the service of companionship and are assigned as associates to all classes of beings who may chance to be alone on Paradise, chiefly to the ascendant mortals but also to all others who are alone on the central Isle. Paradise Companions have nothing especial to accomplish in behalf of those with whom they fraternize; they are simply companions. Almost every other being you mortals will encounter during your Paradise ~~sojourn—aside~~ from your fellow ~~pilgrims—will~~ have something definite to do with you or for you; but these companions are assigned only to be with you and to commune with you as personality associates. They are often assisted in their ministry by the gracious and brilliant Paradise Citizens.

25:8.5 If you, as an ascendant mortal, should reach Paradise in the company of the companion or close associate of your earthly career, or if your seraphic guardian of destiny should chance to arrive with you or were waiting for you, then no permanent companion would be assigned you. But if you arrive alone, a companion will certainly welcome you as you awaken on the Isle of Light from the terminal sleep of time. Even if it is known that you will be accompanied by someone of ascendant association, temporary companions will be designated to welcome you to the eternal shores and to escort you to the reservation made ready for the reception of you and your associates. You may be certain of being warmly welcomed when you experience the resurrection into eternity on the everlasting shores of Paradise.

25:8.6 Reception companions are assigned during the terminal days of the ~~ascenders~~' sojourn on the last circuit of Havona, and they carefully examine the records of mortal origin and eventful ascent through the worlds of space and the circles of Havona.

25:8.7 During your prefinaliter sojourn on Paradise, if for any reason you should be temporarily separated from your associate of the ascending ~~career—mortal~~ or ~~seraphic—a~~ Paradise Companion would be forthwith assigned for counsel and companionship.

25:8.8 Paradise Companions are assigned in order of waiting except that an ascender is never placed in the charge of a companion whose nature is unlike his superuniverse type. If a Urantia mortal were arriving on Paradise today, there would be assigned to him the first waiting companion either of origin in Orvonton or otherwise of the nature of the Seventh Master Spirit. Hence the omniaphim serve not with the ascendant creatures from the seven superuniverses.

25:8.9 Many additional services are performed by the Paradise Companions: If an ascending mortal should reach the central universe alone and, while traversing Havona, should fail in some phase of the Deity adventure, in due course he would be remanded to the universes of time, and forthwith a call would be made to the reserves of the Paradise Companions. One of this order would be assigned to follow the defeated pilgrim, to be with him and to comfort and cheer him, and to remain with him until he returned to the central universe to resume the Paradise ascent.

25:8.11 But not so with two closely associated mortal ascenders: If one attains God while the other temporarily fails, the successful individual invariably chooses to go back to the evolutionary creations with the disappointed personality, but this is not permitted. Instead, a call is made to the reserves of the Paradise Companions, and one of the volunteers is selected to accompany the disappointed pilgrim. A volunteer Paradise Citizen then becomes associated with the successful mortal, who tarries on the central Isle awaiting the Havona return of the defeated comrade and in the meantime teaches in certain Paradise schools, presenting the adventurous story of the evolutionary ascent.
