Then will begin your real life, the [[Ascension Career|ascending life]], to which your present [[mortal]] [[state]] is but the [[vestibule]]. Then will begin your exalted and [[progressive]] mission as [[finaliters]] in the [[eternity]] which stretches out before you. And throughout all of these [[successive]] [[ages]] and [[stages]] of [[evolutionary]] [[growth]], there is one part of you that remains [[absolutely]] unaltered, and that is [[personality]]—[[permanence]] in the [[presence]] of [[change]].

On the [[universe]] [[records]] a [[mortal]] [[personality]] is considered to have met with [[death]] whenever the [[essential]] [[mind]] [[circuits]] of human [[Free will|will]]-[[action]] have been destroyed. And again, this is [[death]], irrespective of the continuing [[function]] of the living [[mechanism]] of the physical [[body]]. The body minus the [[volitional]] [[mind]] is no longer [[human]], but according to the prior [[choosing]] of the human will, the [[soul]] of such an [[individual]] may [[survive]].

Following this dissolution the [[Adjuster]] takes leave of the vanishing [[mind]], just as unceremoniously as entry was made years before, and proceeds to [[Divinington]] by way of [[Uversa]].

At present the [[Paradise]] [[finaliters]] are working throughout the [[grand universe]] in many undertakings, but we all conjecture that they will have other and even more [[supernal]] tasks to [[perform]] in the distant [[future]] after the [[seven superuniverses]] have become [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Chapter_3:_First_Synthesis:_God_the_Supreme settled in light and life], and when the [[the Supreme|finite God]] has finally [[emerged]] from the [[mystery]] which now [[surrounds]] this [[Supreme]] Deity.

112:7.17 We believe that the [[mortals]] of ''Adjuster fusion'', together with their [[finaliter]] [[associates]], are [[destined]] to [[function]] in some [[manner]] in the [[administration]] of the [[universes]] of the first [[outer space]] level. We have not the slightest [[doubt]] that in due time these enormous [[galaxies]] will become [[inhabited]] [[universes]]. And we are equally convinced that among the [[administrators]] thereof will be found the [[Paradise]] [[finaliters]] whose [[natures]] are the [[cosmic]] consequence of the blending of [[creature]] and [[Creator]].
