19:1.1 Of all the high orders of [[celestial]] [[personalities]] [[revealed]] to you, the [[Trinity Teacher Sons]] alone act in a dual capacity. By [[origin]] of [[Trinity]] [[nature]], in [[function]] they are almost wholly [[devoted]] to the [[services]] of divine sonship.

19:1.2 While the ''Stationary Sons of the Trinity'' are of completed [[numbers]], the [[Teacher Sons]] are constantly increasing. What the final number of Teacher Sons will be I do not know. I can, however, state that, at the last periodic report to [[Uversa]], the [[Paradise]] [[records]] indicated 21,001,624,821 of these Sons in [[service]].

19:1.3 These [[beings]] are the only [[group]] of the Sons of God [[revealed]] to you whose [[origin]] is in the [[Paradise Trinity]]. They range the [[Havona|central]] and [[superuniverses]], and an enormous corps is assigned to each [[local universe]]. They also serve the [[individual]] [[planets]] as do the other [[Paradise Sons of God]]. Since the scheme of the [[grand universe]] is not fully [[developed]], large numbers of Teacher Sons are held in the reserves on [[Paradise]], and they volunteer for [[emergency]] [[duty]] and [[Anomaly|unusual]] [[service]] in all divisions of the [[grand universe]], on the lone worlds of [[space]], in the local and superuniverses, and on the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_14_-_The_Central_and_Divine_Universe#14:3._THE_HAVONA_WORLDS worlds of Havona].

19:1.4 In this [[connection]], however, it may be noted that [[Teacher Sons]] are the supreme [[co-ordinating]] [[personalities]] of [[Trinity]] [[origin]]. In such a far-flung [[universe of universes]] there is always great [[danger]] of succumbing to the error of the [[circumscribed]] [[viewpoint]], to the [[evil]] [[inherent]] in a [[Fraction|segmentalized]] [[conception]] of [[reality]] and [[divinity]].

But that path does not lead to [[spiritual]] [[wisdom]]. Such a procedure is the easiest path to a certain form of [[genetic]] [[knowledge]], but at best it can only reveal [[man]]'s [[origin]]; it reveals little or nothing about his [[divine]] [[destiny]].

19:2.4 [[Wisdom]] is twofold in [[origin]], being derived from the [[perfection]] of [[divine]] [[insight]] [[inherent]] in [[perfect]] [[beings]] and from the [[personal]] [[experience]] acquired by [[evolutionary]] [[creatures]]. The Perfectors of Wisdom are the [[divine]] wisdom of the [[Paradise]] [[perfection]] of [[Deity]] [[insight]]. Their [[administrative]] [[associates]] on [[Uversa]], the [[Mighty Messengers]], [[Those without Name and Number]], and [[Those High in Authority]], when [[acting]] [[together]], are the [[universe]] [[wisdom]] of [[experience]]. A divine being can have [[perfection]] of [[divine]] [[knowledge]]. An [[evolutionary]] [[mortal]] can sometime [[attain]] [[perfection]] of [[ascendant]] [[knowledge]], but neither of these [[beings]] [[alone]] exhausts the [[potentials]] of all [[possible]] wisdom. Accordingly, whenever in the conduct of the [[superuniverse]] it is [[desired]] to [[achieve]] the maximum of [[administrative]] [[wisdom]], these perfectors of the wisdom of divine insight are always [[associated]] with those ascendant personalities who have come up to the high responsibilities of [[superuniverse]] [[authority]] through the [[experiential]] tribulations of [[evolutionary]] [[progression]].
