66:0.2 About five hundred thousand years ago and concurrent with the [[appearance]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_64 six colored or Sangik races], [[Caligastia]], the [[Planetary Prince]], arrived on [[Urantia]]. There were almost one-half billion [[primitive]] [[human beings]] on [[earth]] at the time of the Prince's arrival, and they were well scattered over [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europe Europe], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asia Asia], and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africa Africa].

66:1.1 [[Caligastia]] was a [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_35#35:8._THE_LANONANDEK_SONS Lanonandek Son], number 9,344 of the secondary order. He was [[experienced]] in the [[administration]] of the affairs of the [[local universe]] in general and, during later ages, with the [[management]] of the [[local system]] of [[Satania]] in particular.

66:1.2 Prior to the reign of [[Lucifer]] in [[Satania]], [[Caligastia]] had been attached to the [[council]] of the [[Life Carrier]] advisers on [[Jerusem]]. [[Lucifer]] elevated [[Caligastia]] to a position on his personal staff, and he acceptably filled five [[successive]] assignments of [[honor]] and [[trust]].

[[Lucifer]] elevated [[Caligastia]] to a position on his personal staff, and he acceptably filled five [[successive]] assignments of [[honor]] and [[trust]].

66:1.3 [[Caligastia]] very early sought a commission as [[Planetary Prince]], but repeatedly, when his request came up for approval in the [[constellation]] [[councils]], it would fail to receive the assent of the [[Constellation Fathers]]. [[Caligastia]] seemed especially [[desirous]] of being sent as [[planetary]] ruler to a [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_58#PAPER_58:_LIFE_ESTABLISHMENT_ON_URANTIA decimal or life-modification world]. His [[petition]] had several times been disapproved before he was finally assigned to [[Urantia]].

His [[petition]] had several times been disapproved before he was finally assigned to [[Urantia]].

66:1.4 [[Caligastia]] went forth from [[Jerusem]] to his trust of world [[dominion]] with an enviable [[record]] of [[loyalty]] and [[devotion]] to the welfare of the [[universe]] of his [[origin]] and [[sojourn]], notwithstanding a certain characteristic restlessness coupled with a [[tendency]] to disagree with the [[established]] order in certain minor matters.

66:2.2 At the head of this group was [[Daligastia]], the [[associate]]-assistant of the [[Planetary Prince]]. Daligastia was also a secondary [[Lanonandek Son]], being number 319,407 of that order. He ranked as an assistant at the time of his assignment as [[Caligastia]]' s [[associate]].

66:2.3 The [[planetary]] staff included a large number of [[angelic]] co-operators and a host of other [[celestial]] [[beings]] assigned to advance the interests and promote the [[welfare]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_64 human races]. But from your [[standpoint]] the most interesting [[group]] of all were the [[Material|corporeal]] members of the Prince's staff—sometimes referred to as the Caligastia one hundred.

But from your [[standpoint]] the most interesting [[group]] of all were the [[Material|corporeal]] members of the Prince's staff—sometimes referred to as the Caligastia one hundred.

66:2.4 These one hundred rematerialized members of the Prince's staff were [[chosen]] by [[Caligastia]] from over 785,000 [[ascendant]] [[citizens]] of [[Jerusem]] who [[volunteered]] for embarkation on the [[Urantia]] [[adventure]]. Each one of the chosen one hundred was from a [[different]] [[planet]], and none of them were from [[Urantia]].

Each one of the chosen one hundred was from a [[different]] [[planet]], and none of them were from [[Urantia]].

66:2.5 These [[Jerusem]]ite [[volunteers]] were brought by [[seraphic]] [[transport]] direct from the [[system capital]] to [[Urantia]], and upon arrival they were held enseraphimed until they could be provided with [[personality]] [[forms]] of the [[dual]] [[nature]] of special [[planetary]] [[service]], [[literal]] bodies consisting of [[flesh]] and blood but also [[attuned]] to the life [[circuits]] of [[the system]].

66:2.6 Sometime before the arrival of these one hundred [[Jerusem]] [[citizens]], the two supervising [[Life Carriers]] resident on [[Urantia]], having previously [[perfected]] their [[plans]], [[petitioned]] [[Jerusem]] and [[Edentia]] for permission to transplant the [[life plasm]] of one hundred selected [[survivors]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_63 Andon and Fonta] stock into the [[material]] [[bodies]] to be [[projected]] for the corporeal members of the Prince's staff. The request was granted on [[Jerusem]] and approved on [[Edentia]].

The request was granted on [[Jerusem]] and approved on [[Edentia]].

66:2.7 Accordingly, fifty [[males]] and fifty [[females]] of the [[Andon and Fonta]] [[posterity]], [[representing]] the [[survival]] of the best strains of that [[unique]] [[race]], were chosen by the [[Life Carriers]]. With one or two exceptions these [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_63#63:5._DISPERSION_OF_THE_ANDONITES Andonite] contributors to the advancement of the [[race]] were strangers to one another. They were assembled from widely separated places by [[co-ordinated]] [[Thought Adjuster]] direction and [[seraphic]] [[guidance]] at the [[threshold]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_66#66:3._DALAMATIA.E2.80.94THE_CITY_OF_THE_PRINCE planetary headquarters] of the Prince. Here the one hundred human subjects were given into the hands of the highly [[skilled]] [[volunteer]] commission from Avalon, who directed the [[material]] extraction of a portion of the [[life plasm]] of these [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_63#63:4._THE_ANDONIC_CLANS Andon descendants]. This living [[material]] was then [[transferred]] to the [[material]] [[bodies]] constructed for the use of the one hundred [[Jerusem]]ite members of the Prince's staff. Meantime, these newly arrived [[citizens]] of the [[system capital]] were held in the [[sleep]] of [[seraphic]] [[transport]].

66:2.8 These [[transactions]], together with the [[literal]] [[creation]] of special [[bodies]] for the [[Caligastia]] one hundred, gave [[origin]] to numerous [[legends]], many of which subsequently became [[confused]] with the later [[traditions]] concerning the planetary installation of [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_74 Adam and Eve].

66:2.9 The entire [[transaction]] of [[repersonalization]], from the [[time]] of the arrival of the [[seraphic transport]]s bearing the one hundred [[Jerusem]] [[volunteers]]  until they became [[conscious]], threefold beings of the realm, consumed exactly [[ten]] days.

66:3.1 The [[headquarters]] of the [[Planetary Prince]] was situated in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persian_gulf Persian Gulf] region of those days, in the district [[corresponding]] to later [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesopotamia Mesopotamia].

66:3.2 The [[climate]] and landscape in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesopotamia Mesopotamia] of those times were in every way favorable to the undertakings of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_66#66:2._THE_PRINCE.27S_STAFF Prince's staff] and their assistants, very [[different]] from conditions which have sometimes since prevailed. It was [[necessary]] to have such a favoring [[climate]] as a part of the [[natural]] [[environment]] [[designed]] to induce [[primitive]] [[Urantians]] to make certain initial advances in [[culture]] and [[civilization]]. The one great task of those ages was to [[transform]] man from a [[hunter]] to a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herder herder], with the [[hope]] that later on he would evolve into a [[peace]]-loving, [[home]]-abiding [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farmer farmer].

66:3.3 The [[headquarters]] of the [[Planetary Prince]] on [[Urantia]] was typical of such stations on a young and [[developing]] [[sphere]]. The [[nucleus]] of the Prince's settlement was a very [[simple]] but [[beautiful]] [[city]], enclosed within a wall forty feet high. This world [[center]] of [[culture]] was named ''Dalamatia'' in [[honor]] of [[Daligastia]].

66:3.6 The [[city]] [[represented]] the best [[practices]] of those early days in building [[material]]—[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brick brick]. Very little stone or wood was used. [[Home]] building and village [[architecture]] among the [[surrounding]] peoples were greatly improved by the [[Dalamatia]]n example.

66:3.7 Near the Prince's [[headquarters]] there dwelt all [[colors]] and strata of [[human beings]]. And it was from these near-by [[tribes]] that the first [[students]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_66#66:5._ORGANIZATION_OF_THE_ONE_HUNDRED Prince's schools] were recruited. Although these early schools of [[Dalamatia]] were crude, they provided all that could be done for the [[men]] and [[women]] of that [[primitive]] age.

66:3.8 The Prince's corporeal staff continuously gathered about them the superior [[individuals]] of the [[surrounding]] [[tribes]] and, after [[training]] and [[inspiring]] these [[students]], sent them back as [[teachers]] and [[leaders]] of their respective peoples.

66:4.1 The arrival of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_66#66:2._THE_PRINCE.27S_STAFF Prince's staff] created a [[profound]] impression. While it required almost a thousand years for the news to spread abroad, those [[tribes]] near the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesopotamia Mesopotamian] headquarters were tremendously [[influenced]] by the [[teachings]] and conduct of the one hundred new [[sojourners]] on [[Urantia]]. And much of your subsequent [[mythology]] grew out of the garbled legends of these early days when these members of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_66#66:2._THE_PRINCE.27S_STAFF Prince's staff] were [[repersonalized]] on [[Urantia]] as supermen.

66:4.2 The serious obstacle to the [[good]] [[influence]] of such extraplanetary [[teachers]] is the [[tendency]] of [[mortals]] to regard them as [[gods]], but aside from the [[technique]] of their [[appearance]] on [[earth]] the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_66#66:2._THE_PRINCE.27S_STAFF Caligastia one hundred]—fifty [[men]] and fifty [[women]]—did not resort to [[supernatural]] [[methods]] nor superhuman [[manipulations]].

66:4.4 1. They were corporeal and [[relatively]] [[human]], for they embodied the [[actual]] [[life plasm]] of one of the [[human]] [[races]], the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_63 Andonic life plasm] of [[Urantia]].

66:4.5 These one hundred members of the Prince's staff were divided [[equally]] as to [[sex]] and in accordance with their previous [[mortal]] [[status]]. Each [[person]] of this [[group]] was capable of becoming [[Reproduction|coparental]] to some new order of [[physical]] [[being]], but they had been carefully instructed to resort to [[parenthood]] only under certain conditions. It is customary for the corporeal staff of a [[Planetary Prince]] to [[procreate]] their successors sometime prior to retiring from special [[planetary]] [[service]]. Usually this is at, or shortly after, the time of the arrival of the Planetary [[Adam and Eve]].

66:4.6 These special beings therefore had little or no [[idea]] as to what [[type]] of [[material]] [[creature]] would be produced by their [[Sexual Intercourse|sexual union]]. And they never did know; before the [[time]] for such a step in the prosecution of their world [[work]] the entire [[regime]] was upset by [[rebellion]], and those who later [[functioned]] in the [[parental]] role had been [[isolated]] from the life currents of [[the system]].

66:4.7 In skin [[color]] and [[language]] these [[materialized]] members of [[Caligastia]]' s staff followed the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_63 Andonic race]. They partook of [[food]] as did the [[mortals]] of the realm with this [[difference]]: The re-created [[bodies]] of this [[group]] were fully satisfied by a nonflesh diet. This was one of the considerations which determined their residence in a warm region abounding in fruits and nuts. The practice of subsisting on a [[Vegan|nonflesh]] diet dates from the times of the [[Caligastia]] one hundred, for this [[custom]] spread near and far to affect the eating [[habits]] of many [[surrounding]] [[tribes]], [[groups]] of [[origin]] in the once exclusively [[Carnivorous|meat-eating]] [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_64 evolutionary races].

66:4.13 These antidotal [[complements]] of the [[Satania]] life currents were derived from the fruit of the [[tree of life]], a shrub of [[Edentia]] which was sent to [[Urantia]] by the [[Most Highs]] of [[Norlatiadek]] at the time of [[Caligastia]]'s arrival. In the days of [[Dalamatia]] this tree grew in the central courtyard of the [[temple]] of [[the unseen Father]], and it was the fruit of the [[tree of life]] that enabled the [[material]] and otherwise [[mortal]] [[beings]] of the Prince's staff to live on indefinitely as long as they had [[access]] to it.

==66:8. MISFORTUNES OF CALIGASTIA==

66:8.2 It should be noted that both [[Lucifer]] and [[Caligastia]] had been [[patiently]] instructed and [[lovingly]] warned respecting their [[critical]] [[tendencies]] and the [[subtle]] [[development]] of their [[pride]] of [[self]] and its associated exaggeration of the [[feeling]] of self-importance. But all of these attempts to help had been misconstrued as unwarranted [[criticism]] and as unjustified [[interference]] with [[personal]] liberties. Both [[Caligastia]] and [[Lucifer]] judged their [[friendly]] advisers as being actuated by the very reprehensible [[motives]] which were beginning to [[dominate]] their own distorted [[thinking]] and misguided planning. They judged their unselfish advisers by their own evolving selfishness.

66:8.3 From the arrival of Prince [[Caligastia]], [[planetary]] [[civilization]] progressed in a fairly [[normal]] [[manner]] for almost three hundred thousand years. Aside from being a [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_58#PAPER_58:_LIFE_ESTABLISHMENT_ON_URANTIA life-modification sphere] and therefore subject to numerous irregularities and unusual [[episodes]] of [[evolutionary]] fluctuation, [[Urantia]] progressed very satisfactorily in its planetary [[career]] up to the times of the [[Lucifer rebellion]] and the concurrent [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_67#67:1._THE_CALIGASTIA_BETRAYAL Caligastia betrayal].

66:8.4 The [[Planetary Prince|Prince]] of [[Urantia]] went into [[darkness]] at the time of the [[Lucifer rebellion]], thus precipitating the long [[confusion]] of the [[planet]]. He was subsequently deprived of [[sovereign]] [[authority]] by the [[co-ordinate]] [[action]] of [[the constellation]] [[Most Highs|rulers]] and other [[universe]] [[authorities]]. He shared the [[inevitable]] [[vicissitudes]] of [[isolated]] [[Urantia]] down to the time of [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_74 Adam's] sojourn on the [[planet]] and [[contributed]] something to the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_75 miscarriage] of the plan to uplift the [[mortal]] [[races]] through the infusion of the lifeblood of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_78 new violet race]—the [[descendants]] of [[Adam and Eve]].

66:8.5 The [[power]] of the fallen Prince to disturb [[human]] affairs was enormously curtailed by the [[mortal]] [[incarnation]] of [[Machiventa]] [[Melchizedek]] in the days of [[Abraham]]; and subsequently, during the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_120 life of Michael in the flesh], this traitorous Prince was finally shorn of all [[authority]] on [[Urantia]].

66:8.6 The [[doctrine]] of a [[personal]] [[devil]] on [[Urantia]], though it had some [[foundation]] in the [[planetary]] [[presence]] of the traitorous and [[iniquitous]] [[Caligastia]], was nevertheless wholly fictitious in its [[teachings]] that such a "devil" could [[influence]] the [[normal]] [[human]] [[mind]] against its [[free]] and natural [[choosing]]. Even before [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_120 Michael's bestowal on Urantia], neither [[Caligastia]] nor [[Daligastia]] was ever able to oppress [[mortals]] or to coerce any [[normal]] [[individual]] into doing anything against the [[human]] [[Free will|will]]. The free will of man is [[supreme]] in [[moral]] affairs; even the indwelling [[Thought Adjuster]] refuses to compel man to [[think]] a single [[thought]] or to [[perform]] a single [[act]] against the choosing of man's own will.

66:8.7 And now this [[rebel]] of the realm, shorn of all [[power]] to harm his former subjects, awaits the final [[adjudication]], by the [[Uversa]] [[Ancients of Days]], of all who [[participated]] in the [[Lucifer rebellion]].
