9:4.2 The [[absolute]] mind is the mind of the Third Person; it is inseparable from the [[personality]] of [[Infinite Spirit|God the Spirit]]. Mind, in functioning [[beings]], is not separated from [[energy]] or [[spirit]], or both. Mind is not inherent in energy; energy is [[receptive]] and [[responsive]] to mind; mind can be superimposed upon energy, but [[consciousness]] is not [[inherent]] in the [[purely]] [[material]] level. Mind does not have to be added to pure spirit, for spirit is innately conscious and identifying. Spirit is always [[intelligent]], minded in some way. It may be this mind or that mind, it may be premind or supermind, even spirit mind, but it does the [[equivalent]] of [[thinking]] and [[knowing]]. The [[insight]] of [[spirit]] [[transcends]], [[supervenes]], and [[theoretically]] antedates the consciousness of mind.

Spirit is [[divine]] [[purpose]], and spirit mind is divine purpose in [[action]]. Energy is [[thing]], mind is [[meaning]], spirit is [[value]]. Even in [[time and space]], mind establishes those [[relative]] [[relationships]] between [[energy]] and [[spirit]] which are suggestive of mutual kinship in [[eternity]].

The [[Ascension Career|Paradise ascent]] involves a [[relative]] and differential [[growth]] in spirit, mind, and energy. The [[personality]] is the [[Unity|unifier]] of these components of experiential [[individuality]].
