5:2.1 The [[physical]] [[presence]] of the [[Infinite]] is the [[reality]] of the [[Physical Cosmology|material universe]]. The [[mind]] presence of [[Deity]] must be determined by the depth of [[individual]] [[intellectual]] [[experience]] and by the evolutionary [[personality]] level. The spiritual presence of [[Divinity]] must of [[necessity]] be [[differential]] in the universe. It is determined by the spiritual capacity of [[receptivity]] and by the [[degree]] of the [[consecration]] of the [[creature]]'s will [[Doing the will of God|to the doing of the divine will]].

5:2.3 The [[divine]] [[presence]] cannot, however, be [[discovered]] anywhere in [[nature]] or even in the lives of God-knowing [[mortals]] so fully and so certainly as in your attempted [[communion]] with the indwelling Mystery Monitor, the [[Paradise]] [[Thought Adjuster]]. What a mistake to [[dream]] of God far off in the skies when the spirit of the [[Universal Father]] lives within your own mind!

5:2.4 It is because of this [[God]] [[Fraction|fragment]] that indwells you that you can [[hope]], as you [[progress]] in [[Harmony|harmonizing]] with the Adjuster's spiritual leadings, more fully to [[discern]] the presence and [[transforming]] [[power]] of those other spiritual [[influences]] that [[Encompass|surround]] you and [[Touch|impinge]] upon you but do not [[function]] as an integral part of you. The [[fact]] that you are not intellectually [[conscious]] of close and [[intimate]] contact with the [[indwelling Adjuster]] does not in the least [[Proof|disprove]] such an exalted [[experience]]. The [[proof]] of [[Friendship|fraternity]] with the divine Adjuster consists wholly in the [[nature]] and [[Degree|extent]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Fruits_of_the_spirit fruits of the spirit] which are yielded in the life [[experience]] of the [[individual]] believer.

5:2.5 It is exceedingly difficult for the meagerly spiritualized, [[material]] [[mind]] of [[mortal]] man to experience marked [[consciousness]] of the [[spirit]] activities of such divine [[entities]] as the [[Paradise]] [[Thought Adjusters|Adjusters]]. As the [[soul]] of [[Paper 111 - The Adjuster and the Soul|joint mind and Adjuster]] [[creation]] becomes increasingly [[existent]], there also evolves a new [[phase]] of [[God-consciousness|soul consciousness]] which is capable of experiencing the presence, and of recognizing the spirit leadings and other supermaterial [[activities]], of the Mystery Monitors.

5:2.6 The entire [[experience]] of [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_111#111:4._THE_INNER_LIFE Adjuster] [[communion]] is one involving [[moral]] [[status]], mental [[motivation]], and spiritual experience.
