134:8.1 After spending some time in the vicinity of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caeserea_Philippi Caesarea Philippi], [[Jesus]] made ready his supplies, and securing a beast of burden and a lad named Tiglath, he proceeded along the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Road_to_Damascus Damascus road] to a village sometime known as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beit_Jenn Beit Jenn] in the foothills of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Hermon Mount Hermon]. Here, near the middle of August, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/25_AD A.D. 25], he established his [[headquarters]], and leaving his supplies in the custody of Tiglath, he [[ascended]] the lonely slopes of the [[mountain]]. Tiglath accompanied [[Jesus]] this first day up the mountain to a designated point about 6,000 feet above sea level, where they built a stone container in which Tiglath was to deposit food twice a week.

Tiglath accompanied [[Jesus]] this first day up the mountain to a designated point about 6,000 feet above sea level, where they built a stone container in which Tiglath was to deposit food twice a week.

134:8.2 The first day, after he had left Tiglath, [[Jesus]] had ascended the [[mountain]] only a short way when he paused to [[pray]]. Among other things he asked [[Universal Father|his Father]] to send back the [[guardian seraphim]] to " be with Tiglath. " He requested that he be [[permitted]] to go up to his last [[struggle]] with the realities of [[mortal]] [[existence]] [[alone]]. And his request was granted. He went into the great test with only his [[indwelling Adjuster]] to [[guide]] and sustain him.

134:8.3 [[Jesus]] ate frugally while on the [[mountain]]; he abstained from all [[food]] only a day or two at a time. The [[superhuman]] [[beings]] who confronted him on this [[mountain]], and with whom he wrestled in [[spirit]], and whom he defeated in [[power]], were real; they were his archenemies in [[the system]] of [[Satania]]; they were not phantasms of the [[imagination]] evolved out of the [[intellectual]] vagaries of a weakened and [[Hungry|starving]] [[mortal]] who could not distinguish [[reality]] from the [[visions]] of a disordered [[mind]].

134:8.4 [[Jesus]] spent the last three weeks of August and the first three weeks of September on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Hermon Mount Hermon]. During these weeks he finished the [[mortal]] task of [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_110#110:6._THE_SEVEN_PSYCHIC_CIRCLES achieving the circles] of [[mind]]-[[understanding]] and [[personality]]-[[control]].

134:8.5 After more than five weeks of unbroken [[communion]] with his [[Paradise Father]], [[Jesus]] became [[absolute]]ly [[assured]] of his [[nature]] and of the [[certainty]] of his triumph over the [[material]] levels of [[time-space]] [[personality]] [[manifestation]]. He fully believed in, and did not hesitate to assert, the ascendancy of his [[divine]] [[nature]] over his [[human]] [[nature]].

134:8.6 Near the end of the [[mountain]] [[sojourn]] [[Jesus]] asked [[Universal Father|his Father]] if he might be [[permitted]] to hold [[conference]] with his [[Satania]] enemies as the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Son_of_Man Son of Man], as Joshua ben Joseph. This request was granted. During the last week on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Hermon Mount Hermon] the great [[temptation]], the universe [[trial]], occurred. [[Satan]] (representing [[Lucifer]]) and the rebellious [[Planetary Prince]], [[Caligastia]], were present with [[Jesus]] and were made fully visible to him. And this " [[temptation]], " this final [[trial]] of [[human]] [[loyalty]] in the face of the misrepresentations of [[rebel]] [[personalities]], had not to do with [[food]], [[temple]] pinnacles, or presumptuous [[acts]]. It had not to do with the kingdoms of this world but with the [[sovereignty]] of a mighty and [[glorious]] [[universe]]. The [[symbolism]] of your [[records]] was intended for the backward ages of the world's childlike [[thought]]. And subsequent [[generations]] should [[understand]] what a great [[struggle]] the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Son_of_Man Son of Man] passed through that eventful day on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Hermon Mount Hermon].

134:8.7 To the many proposals and counterproposals of the emissaries of [[Lucifer]], [[Jesus]] only made reply: " May the will of my [[Paradise Father]] prevail, and you, my rebellious son, may the [[Ancients of Days]] [[judge]] you [[divinely]]. I am your [[Creator]]-[[father]]; I can hardly [[judge]] you justly, and my [[mercy]] you have already spurned. I commit you to the [[adjudication]] of the Judges of a [[Orvonton|greater universe]].

134:8.8 To all the [[Lucifer]]-suggested [[compromises]] and makeshifts, to all such specious proposals about the [[incarnation]] bestowal, [[Jesus]] only made reply, " The will of [[my Father]] in [[Paradise]] be done. " And when the trying [[ordeal]] was finished, the detached [[guardian seraphim]] returned to [[Jesus]]' side and ministered to him.

134:8.9 On an afternoon in late [[summer]], amid the trees and in the [[silence]] of [[nature]], [[Michael]] of [[Nebadon]] won the unquestioned [[sovereignty]] of [[Nebadon|his universe]]. On that day he completed the task set for [[Creator Son]]s to live to the full the [[incarnated]] life in the likeness of [[mortal]] [[flesh]] on the [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_49 evolutionary worlds] of [[time and space]]. The [[universe]] announcement of this momentous [[achievement]] was not made until the day of [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_136#136:2._THE_BAPTISM_OF_JESUS his baptism], months afterward, but it all really took place that day on the [[mountain]].

[[Jesus]] had paid the last price required of him to [[attain]] the [[sovereignty]] of his [[Nebadon|universe]], which in itself regulates the [[status]] of all [[rebels]] and [[determines]] that all such [[future]] upheavals (if they ever occur) may be dealt with summarily and [[effectively]].

134:8.10 At the end of this [[sojourn]] on the [[mountain]], as [[Jesus]] was making his descent, he met Tiglath coming up to the rendezvous with [[food]]. Turning him back, he said only: " The period of rest is over; I must return to [[Universal Father|my Father]]'s business. " He was a [[silent]] and much changed man as they [[journeyed]] back to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_(ancient_city) Dan], where he took leave of the lad, giving him the donkey. He then proceeded south by the same way he had come, to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capernaum Capernaum].
