18:3.1 When [[mortals]] of [[time]] [[graduate]] from the [[training]] worlds surrounding the [[Salvington|headquarters]] of a [[local universe]] and are advanced to the [[educational]] spheres of their [[superuniverse]], they have progressed in spiritual [[development]] to that point where they are able to [[recognize]] and [[communicate]] with the high spiritual rulers and directors of these advanced realms, including the [[Ancients of Days]].

18:3.2 The [[Ancients of Days]] are all basically identical; they disclose the combined [[character]] and [[Union|unified]] [[nature]] of the [[Trinity]]. They possess [[individuality]] and are in [[personality]] [[diverse]], but they do not differ from each other as do the [[Seven Master Spirits]]. They provide the [[uniform]] directorship of the otherwise differing [[seven superuniverses]], each of which is a distinct, segregated, and [[unique]] [[creation]]. The Seven Master Spirits are unlike in [[nature]] and [[attributes]], but the Ancients of Days, the personal rulers of the [[superuniverses]], are all [[uniform]] and superperfect offspring of the [[Paradise Trinity]].

18:3.3 The [[Seven Master Spirits]] on high determine the [[nature]] of their respective [[superuniverses]], but the [[Ancients of Days]] dictate the [[administration]] of these same superuniverses. They superimpose administrative [[uniformity]] on [[creative]] [[diversity]] and insure the [[harmony]] of the [[whole]] in the face of the underlying creational [[differences]] of the seven segmental groupings of the [[grand universe]].

18:3.4 The Ancients of Days were all [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_22#22:7._TECHNIQUE_OF_TRINITIZATION trinitized] at the same time. They [[represent]] the beginning of the [[personality]] [[records]] of the [[universe of universes]], hence their name— Ancients of Days. When you reach [[Paradise]] and search the [[written]] [[records]] of the beginning of [[things]], you will find that the first entry appearing in the [[personality]] section is the recital of the trinitization of these twenty-one [[Ancients of Days]].

18:3.5 These high [[beings]] always govern in [[groups]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three three]. There are many [[phases]] of activity in which they [[work]] as [[individuals]], still others in which any two can function, but in the higher [[spheres]] of their [[administration]] they must act jointly. They never [[personally]] leave their residential worlds, but then they do not have to, for these worlds are the [[superuniverse]] [[focal points]] of the far-flung [[reflectivity]] [[system]].

18:3.6 The [[personal]] [[Homes|abodes]] of each trio of the Ancients of Days are located at the point of [[spiritual]] [[polarity]] on their headquarters sphere. Such a sphere is divided into seventy [[administrative]] [[Parts|sectors]] and has seventy divisional capitals in which the Ancients of Days reside from time to time.

18:3.7 In [[power]], scope of [[authority]], and extent of [[jurisdiction]] the Ancients of Days are the most powerful and mighty of any of the direct rulers of the [[time-space]] [[creations]]. In all the vast [[universe of universes]] they alone are invested with the high powers of final [[executive]] [[judgment]] concerning the [[eternal]] [[Death|extinction]] of [[will]] [[creatures]]. And all three Ancients of Days must participate in the final decrees of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_15#15:12._THE_SUPREME_TRIBUNALS supreme tribunal] of a [[superuniverse]].

18:3.8 Aside from [[the Deities]] and their [[Paradise]] associates, the Ancients of Days are the most [[perfect]], most [[versatile]], and the most [[divinely]] endowed rulers in all [[time-space]] [[existence]]. Apparently they are the supreme rulers of the [[superuniverses]]; but they have not experientially earned this right to rule and are therefore destined sometime to be superseded by the [[Supreme Being]], an experiential [[sovereign]], whose vicegerents they will undoubtedly become.

18:3.9 [[The Supreme Being]] is achieving the [[sovereignty]] of the [[seven superuniverses]] by experiential [[service]] just as a [[Creator Son]] experientially earns the [[sovereignty]] of his [[local universe]]. But during the present age of the unfinished [[evolution]] of [[the Supreme]], the Ancients of Days provide the [[co-ordinated]] and [[perfect]] [[administrative]] [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_118#118:8._CONTROL_AND_OVERCONTROL overcontrol] of the evolving [[universes]] of [[time and space]]. And the [[wisdom]] of [[originality]] and the [[initiative]] of [[individuality]] characterize all the decrees and rulings of the [[Ancients of Days]].
